Friend of the pod and host of Best Week Ever Podcast, Van, hopped on to discuss a full week of dumb men on Bravo from Alex on Summer House Martha's Vineyard to every man on Vanderpump Rules to Jesse from The Valley to Carl from Summer House OG. We also dabble into Shmaylor Shwift territory and we hope you still like us after we share our thoughts!

Kara Berry, the brilliant host of @everyonesbusinessbutmine, hopped on the pod to do a speed round recap of the week of Bravo content.

A full week of Bravo recap! On Real Housewives of Potomac, the cast, the editors, and even this saucy storyline that Mia presented at the very end has given up. On Summer House Martha's Vineyard all of our favorites are back and we're jumping straight into classic season two fights. On Vanderpump Rules the misogyny and pick-me behavior is on full display between Lala and Scheana and their budding friendships with the Toms. On The Valley, Jax keeps showing us that he's obsessed with Kristen. On Summer House, people are finally being honest about the state of Carl and Lindsay's disastrous relationship while not being honest about their own disastrous relationships (KYLE AND AMANDA!).

IN POP CULTURE: Update on Kate Middleton, Diddy is raided by the Feds, Cheesecake Factory reigns supreme.

IN POLITICS: Candace Owen is fired.

IN SPORTS: Women's College Basketball and Shohei Otani's sports bet scandal.
