Sutton's trip to Augusta, Georgia to work on her strained relationship with her mother takes center stage in this episode. With Garcelle and Kyle by her side, she braves the trip to her childhood home where her family experienced the loss of her father. Sutton finally confronts her mother, Reba, about their lack of connection and we bear witness to the disappointing dynamic. Back in Beverly H...

A full rundown of the last two episodes of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. From Kyle and Dorit finally squashing the "more than memes" text issues, to a look back at the nicer times between PK/PJ and Dorit before she laments him going MIA before resurfacing to send a tersely worded seven-page email, the episodes run a gamut of emotions for Dorit. Sutton's visit home to Georgia with Garcelle and...

The final episode of Season 5 for the Real Housewives Of Salt Lake City culminates in a flurry of chaos. From lengthy debates about Mormon standards, to attempting to follow Britani's train of thought, to dissecting micro-penis talk, this reunion covers a lot of bases. A highlight of the episode is that the longstanding Alibaba and alleged threesome feud between Whitney and Lisa finally comes to a...

This section of the reunion focuses on issues and spats concerning the husbands and their affronts to each other, and a few of the other housewives, before pivoting to Mary to discuss how she and Robert Jr. bravely shared his struggle with substance abuse and an update on how he's doing now. Between biatch talk, emotional moments, and circle jerks, this reunion was a rollercoaster of emotions true...

New information and details about what went on behind the scenes during production, like firing staff members for allegedly thinking Blake should be replaced, texts between Ryan Reynolds and Justin, and more texts between Justin and his Wayfarer coho...

Reviewing receipts from Justin Baldoni's lawsuit that allege Blake Lively's goal was always to assert ultimate creative control over his movie, "It Ends With Us". Through text messages, emails, and voice notes, we're presented with a behind the scenes view into the unorthodox power dynamic between director/actress/lead co-stars. Through communications spanning the entire production, we read along...

Now that Justin Baldoni filed his countersuit against Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Leslie Sloane and her PR firm, I cross referenced his own allegations and explanations against her original complaint to see what claims have and haven't been addressed. While a few things seem to have been negated, the majority remain unanswered or left to interpretation of two differing perceptions. This pod focus...

Let's end a hellish week by recapping Part 1 of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 5 Reunion. The topics hit hard and fast when they start coming but most don't get to a full resolution before things devolve into yelling and nonsense. Still, Andy manages to ask about: if Whitney gets her jewelry from ALIBABAAAHHH, the status of Angie and Lisa in light of the "bad mom" comment, where Bron...

What better way to decompress from a week of chaos and unrest than to watch a woman with more Birkins than sense dramatically lament a situation she created? How dare people take issue with Kyle seemingly pledging loyalty to a friend's estranged husband? All that while continuing to refer to herself as a "girl's girl" makes for quite the journey into madness. Thankfully, Dorit 2.0 continues to rej...

On MLK Day, in a mad world, lets talk about two women-centered films. Final thoughts of the 'Martha' documentary on Netflix and then Demi Moore's stellar performance in 'The Substance', as well as the lessons we can glean from both. Also, hold my hand as I rant about the much hyped TikTok ban that wasn't and worrisome censorship that appears to be popping up across social media platforms. All opin...

This extended version of the episode was truly a hilling experience. I laughed, I cried, I critiqued. Breaking the fourth wall, throwing flowers, nip slips, cheap wigs, walk-offs, wild allegations, and claims of stagnant sales for Wild Rose - the finale has it ALL. This episode could provide an entire season's worth of content for other RH franchises. It's a journey of friendship, conflict, loyalt...

After a measured rant on the tragedy that is the American government catering to the whims of a bug eyed bro with $8M to spend on lobbying to get his way, we recap two episodes of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. In episode six, Dorit confronts Kyle about her innocent meme laden texts with PK, Kyle doubles down on the silliness of her caring after not caring previously and the innocent nature of...

Another iconic Real Housewives of Salt Lake City episode that solidifies the sprinter van as THE best of all possible filming locations on any franchise. Nothing brings a divided group together like a common enemy, and that enemy swinging and missing on every excuse, accusation, and attempt to fight back makes for a legendarily cringe experience. Up against a new foe, Meredith is in rare form and...

It finally happened, I watched the movie that spurned all the lawsuits and drama - and I have thoughts. A review the rom-dramedy? in the spirit of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and thoughts and research into the various distracting derelict lewks and random designer labels. From the acting to the dialogue, and the plot to the set design, the creative choices were all noticed and noted. BONUS: A new...

The conclusion of Justin Baldoni's jam packed lawsuit against the New York Times that covers a pile of alleged inaccuracies from their article regarding a "smear campaign" against Blake Lively. Full text message exchanges between Justin's team seem to present a different reality from the vindictive scenarios outlined in Blake's complaint. Justin's version tells a story of his small production hous...

Justin Baldoni files an 87 page lawsuit against the New York Times, this episode reviews contradictions from statements made in Blake Lively's complaint. His perspective seems to be that she held something over Wayfarer as a bargaining chip of sorts to get her way, and that he and his team agreed to her escalating demands to keep the peace. They appear to frame her allegations as a means to regain...

Review and recommendations of Netflix's 6-part series, 'Black Doves', and the Caroline Lindy's indie film, "Your Monster". Keira Knightly morphs into a super spy with impressive fighting skills and a comedic relief spy best friend in a series that I thought rivaled any action movie in recent years. Then, Melissa Bererra gives an outstanding performance as a young woman dealing with a pile of disap...

The final portion of Blake Lively's complaint filed against Justin Baldoni and Wayfarer for alleged misconduct and a PR smear campaign. Enlightening information is shared via actual text messages that seem to make clear why Justin's messaging and behavior during the launch of the movie was so very different from the rest of the cast. Text messages between his PR and crisis comms team detail the le...

Dorit's DGAF season continues to give and give as the episode shows us various topics, from Sutton supporting Garcelle's move into her renovated beach house, Jennifer Tilly's Bel Air real estate collection, Boze's travels, Kyle's self love, and Erika's affinity for pizza and delusion - yet none are as entertaining as watching Dorit pop off on a smug Camille. That moment comes during a western feti...

Once in Puerto Vallarta, Lisa's meticulous planning backfires when Bronwyn feels slighted by her room assignment - as Britani feels emboldened by h...

After an acknowledgment of chaotic school requests, holiday tasks, and a story about orbs, we settle in for a nice recap. The ladies pick up on a "to be continued" tiff at dinner in Mission Beach between Dorit and Kyle as the rest of the group watches the back and forth like a tennis match - and cringes as conversation devolves into a tangent about John Mellencamp's daughter, courtesy of Garcelle....

Updates on the case as it stands with a disclaimer that Luigi should be viewed as a suspect, innocent until proven guilty, not definitively guilty until that is proven in court. Analyzing details of his online footprint and alleged evidence has provided more seemingly hidden messages that are reviewed before asking questions that arise when debating his connection. The topic that super cedes all o...
