Reality Bites ®

We're so sorry for the delay, y'all! As you may know, Betsy and I took to the open road to go see the one and only Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour this weekend!  And because we were traveling, our recap schedule got a little behind - however, we ended up with a special treat for you guys in the process! Since EP is working on a show in Atlanta (where we came to see Taylor), we were able to pull her in for our first ever recap with all three of us!! We talk all things Jersey and VPR, and hope you have as much fun listening as we did recording!

03:55 - RHONJ
50:18 - Vanderpump Rules

This week's Vanderpump Rules episode was absolute balls to the wall, non-stop chaos and  supersized to boot -- needless to say, we had a lot to dig into in our recap!! Between the blatancy of Sandoval and Raquel in plain sight, the ensuing early speculation from a surprising source, Oliver-gate and, most importantly, our presence being graced by Queen Garcelle... this episode was a doozy!

We're back covering our favorite Hamptons gang this week! And what a week it was as they finished ringing in the soon-to-be national holiday known as Kyle's 40th Birthday; we bore witness to a new budding and soon-to-blow up in everyone's faces romance between Sam and Kori, the girl group bonding over fertility tests of all things; not to mention a peek at Carl and Lindsay's engagement ring and their... $13,000/month apartment?!? It's Summer House time y'all!!

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to celebrate the union of… oh, who are we kidding? This wedding was an absolute mess! But the real question is, when has a trip to Mexico NOT been messy with this crew?? Something to aspire to, one day perhaps… 

We’re breaking down this week’s Vanderpump, and lest we forget:

With Betsy in Mexico,  we've been a little behind this week on our episode drops, but that said, EP was able to join me for a very special Vanderpump recap episode this week... I hope you enjoy it! And of course, in addition to diving into the episode itself, we also break down that insane WWHL appearance by none other than Tom Schwartz! Needless to say, this week was a doozy!

Betsy's gone to a wedding in Mexico this week, and with EP's crazy schedule, I (JJ) am bringing you guys my first solo recap! And in doing so,  I'm breaking down Summer House and RHONJ from a slightly different approach - taking a topline look at the seasons as a whole, and why, frankly... they aren't really working for me!

Episode Breakdown:
04:17 - Summer House
25:49 - RHONJ

As for this week's Vanderpump episode, EP is going to fill in for Betsy in tackling part 2 of Scheana's wedding trip episodes, along with that bonkers crazy Schwartz appearance on WWHL, which will drop tomorrow am!

Shay, I do! Scheana won't be a "Shay" much longer, as the gang heads down to Mexico to celebrate her and Brock's upcoming nuptials... well, except for Katie, who makes it abundantly clear that she's there on her girl's just want to have sun trip with Kristina Kelly. But between Katie and Scheana's hotel sparring match, and James' multiple MexiConniption fits, the episode didn't disappoint! And since this week wasn't SUPER content-heavy, we tried to focus on more behind-the-scenes producer questions and topics from y'all to give some added texture.. enjoy!
