Mercedes Javid from Shahs of Sunset is here to spill tea with us – and she's as unfiltered and genuine as always. Who is she still in touch with? What are her thoughts on Scandoval when she knows all of the cast so well? What show does she currently love most on Bravo? And we get an interesting perspective from her about the possible reality show unionization.    Her husband, Tommy Feight, wrote a children's book called The Best Hug In The World.

After Shows

First, a genuine apology to Jen Armstrong, formerly of RHOC and to Jen Pedranti, currently on RHOC. We mixed up last names, and when we meant to refer to Jen Pedranti, we accidentally called her Jen Armstrong. No shade was meant. But just because we messed up Jen P's name, doesn't mean we're not going to share the latest on her fiance's involvement in the Ohtani theft/gambling scandal. @bravoandcocktails_ Instagram has been in the news - thanks to a pic we got from a Cocktailer that was then shared and credited to the B&C; IG by TMZ - of Dorit and PK at dinner shortly after their separation announcement. We have a hot take on Jenn Fessler's convo with Teresa. B's question for Amanda - if *this one thing* changed about John Fuda, would we all have a different opinion about him? The VPR reunion aired, and we've got different opinions about the Lala vs. Katie convo.    Cocktailers, thank you for listening to Cocktails and Gossip! We might change our minds about shows and Bravolebs on the daily, but you know what we don't change our minds about? Gossip.

106. We apologize; What (else) we're watching tangent; We pledge allegiance to gossip; Our real opinion on Lala vs Katie

We've got two different sets of breaking news this week. We start out with the story about Ryan Boyajian, fiance to Jen Armstrong of the Real Housewives of Orange County. He has been named as an associate to the bookie in the gambling and theft case of Shohei Ohtani, the LA Dodger, and his interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara, who has been accused of stealing more than $16 million from Ohtani and wiring the money for his gambling to Ryan Boyajian. What did Tamra Judge say about this? You'll hear it here. Jersey is leaving us feeling a little dirty, now that we know about what's been going on behind the scenes (allegedly) with members of the RHONJ cast paying and giving gifts to fan accounts in return for the fan accounts trashing their cast rivals. Vanderpump Rules' season finale felt a little like a series finale. But we know it's not - the ratings are just too good to end the show. Did production give Sandoval a redemption arc? We have differing opinions. What should Lala do next? And, as we're discussing a poll that B put up on @bravoandcocktails_ , we get some breaking news from Dorit and PK.  This episode is sponsored by Nutrafol.

105. Breaking news; All roads lead to Bravo, VPR Finale

What happened to episode 103? And today, we had a whole different WTF... Michelle and Jesse from the Valley have both gone public with new love interests. We've got a lot of info on Jesse's new gf – and she has a fascinating back story that we get into. We disagree about Jax's real motivations for telling Brittany he doesn't want a child, but we agree that everyone's scapegoating on Kristen and she's getting all the blame for something most of the folks on The Valley are doing too. Did you guys catch the weird two refrigerator thing in Kristen's apartment? Ariana is playing chess and Brock is playing checkers - more on what greyrocking is. VPR is pausing production this summer - here's why (according to our sources) and who is spiraling?   Today's episode of Cocktails and Gossip is brought to you by Lolavie.

104. Another week, another wifi WTF; No one is innocent on The Valley; Greyrocking

Monday was one of the wildest days in the Bravoverse that we can remember. Firings, divorce news, pregnancy announcements. Is Nneka actually not coming back to Potomac? B has an Atlanta casting update. The Valley is sending us. We love it. Kristen is an empath? Lol. We have the tea on who the rumored director that Michelle Lally was hanging out with. We have a lot more info on Raquel Chevremont, the new RHONY Reboot cast member. And of course, Cocktailers knew there was trouble in paradise for Alexia and Todd's marriage. Is it really all that shocking that he filed for divorce? Or could that have been a strategic move? James and Ally have an emotional chat - we've got a unique viewpoint about that chat. And would anyone, even Schwartz buy a house with Tom Sandoval? B's got a prediction about Scheana and Brock's marriage...   This week's episode of Cocktails and Gossip is brought to you by our sponsors, Lolavie and Nutrafol -Get 15% off your entire order at Lolavie.com with code GOSSIP - we are LOVING Lolavie! -Mother's Day is coming up!

102. Manic Bravo Monday; Is Kristen Doute an empath? Lol. Theory: Why Todd filed for divorce. B's prediction about Scheana

Larry from @Bravobygays on Instagram and the  Bravo by Gays podcast is here! We get INTO it about Vanderpump Rules - starting with Jo. We read the transcript of her interview on Rachel's Gone Rogue - is she a victim of Tom Shwartz's gaslighting? Were they actually dating last summer? Larry's thoughts on the Katie/Tori/Schwartz love triangle. What is actually going on with this Lala/Ariana feud? We have theories. What show does Larry think is Must-See-TV? Thoughts on Jax and Brittany - are they broken up for good? Summer House: We discuss Danielle and Paige; Why we think Paige is setting a great example for people (not just women) in relationships everywhere; Our real opinions on the Summer House newbies; What's going on with Kyle and Amanda?
