November 03, 2025 EP 74: Sugar Mama's, Hot Takes, and Blind Dates | Her Opinion Show
Send us Fan Mail
this week’s episode of Coffee Meets Vodka is serving pop culture, purpose, and a pinch of chaos. With BravoCon just two weeks away, Raya’s spilling her predictions and what she’s most excited to see. Plus, she’s giving a sneak peek into her live show happening November 10th at 7 PM at Wicklow Heights, where community, connection, and cocktails collide.
She also sits down to chat about attending the You Have a Purpose Foundation Empower Luncheon with Nushin from Her Opinion Show, and why it’s giving all the girlboss energy we love.
Then it’s time to dive into the drama — from your friends trying to set you up with someone you’re just not attracted to, to Darcey and Georgi’s wild story of meeting on a sugar mama site (allegedly). And because Raya’s always on the move, she wraps it all up with some honest talk about traveling — solo vs. with friends — and why sometimes a little getaway is exactly what you need.
✨ Whether you’re a Bravo-holic, a pop culture junkie, or just here for the real talk, this episode has a little something for everyone.

Send us Fan Mail
From tech CEOs getting caught in scandal at a Coldplay concert to Justin Timberlake forgetting how to sing, this week’s episode is serving chaos on a silver platter. We’re talking Harry Styles’ surprising new business venture (yes, it involves sex toys), Beyoncé’s choreographer getting jumped in Atlanta over unreleased tracks, and the chilling disappearance of Amy Bradley.
Plus, is ChatGPT really frying your brain? Katy Perry linked to Justin Trudeau?? Destiny’s Child making a jaw-dropping return?? And the internet can’t stop buzzing: Pete Davidson might be a dad (with Elsie, Benny Blanco’s ex). Oh, and there’s a new Tea App that might change the way you spill it.

June 20, 2025 EP 66: Not Guilty, Not a Virgin, And [Not] Watching AJLT
Send us Fan Mail
This week’s episode is an unhinged Bravo-fueled fever dream—in the best way. We’re recapping the RHOM premiere, Rachel Zoe stepping into the RHOBH ring, and Tom Girardi getting 7 years behind bars (finally). Over in The Valley, we unpack the mess: trying to make Danny an alcoholic?? Jax’s return from rehab, Kristen’s baby reveal, and the very real question—who's the number one guy in the group?
On Love Hotel, Luann reigns supreme, and in 90 Day Fiancé: The Hunt for Love, we’re kind of... into Colty?! Plus Usman, Rob the “actor,” Elise’s love of anal (?!), and the never-gonna-happen saga of Tim & Jennifer.
We hit AJLT chaos: SJP doesn’t even watch it (makes sense), Aiden licking his hand, Harry peeing himself, and Charlotte’s rage spiral. Next Gen NYC gets a nod, BravoCon hype is building, and Karen Read is NOT guilty!
Also: Romeo Beckham’s breakup, Brooklyn ghosting the fam, Summer House reunion drama, Paige possibly out, and Nick Viall hosting SLOMW’s reunion—yep, with whispers of Jessi and Jordan splitting.
And in the chaotic corner: Chris Smith is in love with AI, someone asked why my name isn’t Riah (girl WHAT?), virgins + vaginismus, Titan sub = still boring, Astroworld numbers don’t add up, and Justin Baldoni’s legal mess may be dismissed, but he’s still got Blake & Taylor’s texts?!
Plus: Love Island didn’t call me. Rude.

June 05, 2025 EP 65: Whistle Blower, Chrisley's Pardoned, SLOMW Cliff Hanger
Send us Fan Mail
This week, we’re serving up a piping hot mix of reality show shakeups, unexpected hookups, and billion-dollar deals. First up: Alix Earle is heading to the Dancing with the Stars ballroom, and we’re already prepping the glitter. Then there’s Erika Jayne allegedly hooking up with RHONY’s Jesse Solomon—we have thoughts.
In Bieberland, Justin and Hailey’s Vogue post is giving curated perfection, but behind the scenes? Hailey just inked a $1 BILLION deal with e.l.f., proving she’s the real mogul in the marriage.
We dive into the Chrisley Chronicles 2.0: Trump might be pardoning Todd and Julie, and there’s a new reality show on the horizon?! Plus, Klarna’s $136 million debt spiral, a Sunday Press raid, and a JoJo Siwa curveball—yes, she kissed Chris Hughes during a Mexican getaway and TikTok has the receipts.
Oh, and if you thought “My Husband’s Not Gay” was a fever dream… think again.
