I Have SO Many Opinions

On this episode: We somehow discuss the "free the nipple" movement, and whether or not pushup bras are as ubiquitous as they once were. Vail truly showcases her charisma while she leads Peter by the nose, and unfortunately for SUR's resident manager, we learn that he has ZERO game. Doute refuses to let to the Sandoval in Miami rumors go, and plots to bring the woman in question to SUR. And finally, Katie Maloney grows a backbone and defends herself against Stassi's accusations of betrayal. Grab a bottle of wine (if you're not on a date) and buckle up! 

Welcome to our Boomer Classic Rock Showdown. On this episode we welcome Danny, from Case and a Couch, to debate two titans of 70s Rock. In one corner we have The Bullies who'll steal your lunch and fuck chicks: The Eagles. In the other the we have Yacht Rock's Most Virtuosic Nerds: Steely Dan. We talk about their ubiquitousness, the way they've both (at turns) been intensely maligned and re-embraced by popular culture, the way both bands make us feel, and ultimately debate their legacy. Listen to find out which band reigns supreme. Buckle Up! 

On this episode, Katie finally accepts how alike she and Vail are. We riff on shoe sizes, and reminisce over the perils of drinking Bacardi 151. Jax, Sandoval, and Kristen deliver some shockingly real moments in Miami; but as always, Kristen learns the EXACT wrong lesson. And finally, Stassi continues to freeze Katie Maloney out over an imagined betrayal. Don't forget your penis straws, and buckle up! 

This is a fun one ya'll. On this episode Ben and Katie review the latest album of indie savant Julien Baker. Topics include: the generalizability of an indie vocal, whether or not an album needs a set narrative, and somehow devolves into a meditation on the general aesthetics of Catholicism in music. Get ready to feel some type of way, and buckle up! 

The SUR crew, minus Stassi, head to the East Coast for week-long bachelor-bachelorette party. Scheanna holds court over the general dysfunction as Vail continues to be drawn to Jax's poisonous personality. Kirsten lurks and schemes while casting a bitter side-eye towards Sandoval and Ariana as everyone indulges in bottle service. 

We're back with what else but a review of Fearless (Taylor's Version)! Katie and Ben discuss Taylor's badass power move to control her art, how this album compares to the original recording (what's different, what's the same etc.)and how we feel about the songs released from the vault (someone's a fan, and we bet you know who), and somehow go on side tangent about Hamilton. Put on your best little black dress, and buckle up!  **Let the tapes show that Katie knows what she says when she says it : p (listen on to find out more). 

In perhaps our most chaotic episode, Katie calls this  episode of VPR “breezy, but fun,” and comes for the “Jax-truthers” out there. We also note that to our knowledge, Katie and Ben have never been a second-tier wedding invite (knock on wood, friends), and talk about amateurs who attempt to flex by ordering bottle service at the club. The boys live it up in San Diego on Jax’s girlfriend’s dime, Schi-schue and Katie Maloney call a truce (much to Stassi’s chagrin), and T-Sandy is having none of Jax mother fucking Taylor’s shit. Buckle Up!

On this week’s episode, Katie and Ben vamp on myriad subjects (see: Shania Twain and Mutt Lange’s relationship, and the super-producers of the late aughts). James and Kristen are somehow in the right for one hot second while they vie for a spot at Schi-shue’s Miami bachelorette party, but stay tuned until the end of the episode. Katie Maloney and Schwartzy enter couples therapy, while Jax shows a surprising amount of emotional intelligence, and a meandering episode ends with a spectacular Sandoval v. James and Doute showdown.

How involved should anyone get in their friends relationships? If you're one Stassi Schroeder, the answer is a whole helluva lot. Ben and Katie discuss the pitfalls of inserting yourselves in your friends love lives, remain flabbergasted at Schwartz's continued affection for Jax mother fucking Taylor, Jax lusts over new girl Vail, and K-Doute turns last episode's win into a spectacular loss. 

Ben and Katie debate the merits of having a more produced “reality” tv show, Schwartz continues his streak of taking Ls for the season, and our boys must deign to tray pass at Lisa’s “50 Gay Mayors Party.” Sneak your champagne without breaking the glasses, and buckle up!
