Reality Bites ®

Hey y'all, in this very special 100th episode (!!), we're breaking down episode 2 of RHOSLC, and, honestly guys, this season is giving us such... dare we say... fresh start energy?! Or at least far more fresh start energy than whatever's awaiting the women at The Trixie Motel! We're here for it nonetheless... But first, we dive into our takes on the latest in the Carl/Lindsay saga. Enjoy!

EP joins me on the mic to chat this week's RHONY and we really deep dive into analyses of these women because, well, we're finally at a place in the show where this new cast is breaking down their walls, bonding and... wait for it... becoming real friends! 

Also, the cold open is a lengthy one - we talk football, the VMAs, the great NSYNC vs Backstreet debate, and more... but if you want to jump right into RHONY, it starts at 33:50!

Guys... to say we were a little skeptical going into this season premiere would be an understatement of epic proportions, but you know what they say about lowered expectations... sometimes you're pleasantly surprised! We're joined by EP to talk all things SLC - from the new dynamics with Jen Shah "away", the addition of former FBI informant Monica, the emergence of #tubgate, and of course, our eternal adoration for the one that will always keep us coming back for more, Lisa Barlow.

We also took a little extra time to shoot the shit and talk some Hot Topics at the top of today's episode, so in case you need to jump right to  RHSLC, head to 34:00!

Now that we're passing the midseason mark on  RHONY, Betsy and I decided to take a slightly untraditional approach to this week's recap. Instead of just giving our breakdown of Sunday's RHONY, we're stepping back to a 30,000-foot view and breaking down what's working, and isn't working, thus far this season (in addition to talking about this week's ep).

It's that time of the week again - when we pick up our burner phones and secretly text the paparazzi to trek to the untamed, unexplored wilderness known as Orange County. But in all seriousness, I don't know what was more absurd - the claim that the Paps randomly snapped shots of Heather and Terry looking canoodle-ey OR anything that came out of Shannon Storms Beador's mouth this week! Betsy and I are joined by EP to chat all things RHOC. Plus, we'd be remiss if we didn't tackle the biggest news of the week - the demise of the "Babes" (fka Carlito and Lindsay). Hope y'all enjoy!

We've hit the mid-season mark on this new, reboot season of RHONY, and Betsy, myself, and EP have finally hopped back on the mic to chat about this week's episode, how we're feeling about the season overall thus far, not to mention a few Hot Topics! Hope y'all enjoy!
