Throwing Drinks With Gen and Maggie

Why do we prefer the older Real Housewives to the younger ones? What is it a bout the second act of these women that we can't get enough of? And who would be the perfect casting for RHOBH?

In this episode, Gen and Maggie break down the end of And Just Like That, this week's episode of RHOLDN (and Maggie's suggestions for how Panthea could become a more tactical Real Housewife), as well as what they did and didn't like about the latest episode.

Maggie also chats about her time working at MAC cosmetics, and Gen gives us her thoughts on Australian CInema's next big hit; "Babe 4: Escape from Rottnest Island on a Jetstar 2-for-1 Deal".
