Andy's Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast

The journey continues. After sharing recent developments reg. Ariana and Hudson, and the missing case of Ariana's freckles (filed under: "Kim, no," Sarah and AG guest cohost T.Kyle discuss top signs of being a millennial, future of Vanderpump Rules (and changes in LA celebrity culture), the the ups and downs of being underage on reality TV, their Next Gen NYC roses and thorns, RHONY's future, drea...

Still reeling from Ariana and Hudson's breakup, Sarah Venmo's Kim $1 with the note "I will take on seasonal work as your financial bank if you just leave these kids' checking/savings alone #pleasebetardyfortheparty #ibeg" After realizing typical payments are ever so slightly more, she realizes the best way to pay it forward is taking all the Next Gen NYC highs and lows. So, after sharing recent de...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-part episode, Sarah and guest cohost Ellen Lai deep dive complicated family dynamics on and off Bravo, how Muzzy measures up against Candiance/Candee's mom (among other Bravo parental figures), Sarah's Paris journey, 80% of a New York Times deep dive on the then breaking news about the Louvre robbery, and whether someone needs to organize a search...

Sarah finds out about the dramatic robbery at the Louvre and immediately sends a British/French/Irish/Scottish bat signal to her friend, fellow crime drama enthusiast - and Bravoholic - Ellen Lai. Before running life errands (walking down the street, remembering what shoes are), Sarah and her pal Ellen embark on a wide-ranging -it's a 2.5 hour deep dive, they swim in many rivers - convo about comp...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah mentions it all (or, close): the parent-child dynamics on display between Bronwyn and Muzzy, Mary and Robert Jr., Angie K. and her dad, and Britani and...Whitney Rose on behalf of her kid, and the important and opportunity in sharing vulnerable and complicated, even problematic family dynamics on reality TV, an immediate 'best-of' to...

Sarah thinks to herself about how to continue to hill her lower back and spirits, after realizing Lisa Rinna recommended goat or lamb yoga was unfortunately not a great option on account of the bending and lifting (otherwise: all in - no, not that one), she realizes the prescription: catching up on all things Salt Lake. And what a hilling journey that truly was, and continues to be - with thanks t...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah deep dives Julia's post-reunion press about her relationship status with Martina (and an alternate explanation around their relationship), her reactions to the biggest OMG moments from the reunion (Adriana and Julia! Haitian mortician! NESPRESSO), Guerdy's cancer and therapy journeys, Lisa and Alexia's back and forth about her dad, L...

Sarah spiritually stretches before completing her RHOM marathon journey (just in time for the NYC marathon, assuming the DVR counts for training, and a fully hilled back is optional). She races into the cloffice to deep dive the second and third parts of the RHOM reunion: Julia's post-reunion press about her relationship status with Martina (and an alternate explanation around their relationship),...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah unpacks a less-discussed moment from Miami that left her staggered, a RHOM x RHOBH epiphany about Marysol and Adriana, Guerdy's reunion performance (and the difficulty of playing to the audience vs the cast), why the effort against bubble-popping hindered the Guerdy v. Julia narrative, and why Sarah misses Larsa and Lisa (the pics!)....

Sarah continues the hilling journey by icing around her back along with one of her fave modes of meditation: googling Jerry Maguire memes. But after repeatedly saying "Shoma the money" and cackling into the ether, she realizes it's a sign from the lord above (Andy, obvs) to return to the cloffice and begin her necessary RHOM catch-up journey. And what a catch-up, indeed. Over the course of this tw...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah unpacks the latest on Dr. Wendy and Eddie's fraud charges (and the position she reportedly lost today), Dr. Wendy's Wife Swap premiere-swap, an ironic pressure on Housewives to present success/rich in an environment based on 'things aren't what they seem,' favorite moments from the newest RHOP, why Stacey reminds Sarah of a London Ho...

But still, she rise(s). After re-watching Legally Blonde: Platinum Edition, and with all available legal docs avail (her Peacock sign-in, various sketches of Karen Huger in court), Sarah returns to the cloffice for a nuanced and punchy two-part deep dive: the latest on Dr. Wendy and Eddie's fraud charges (and the position she reportedly lost today), Dr. Wendy's Wife Swap premiere-swap, an ironic p...

Sarah smells like hospital. After emergency back surgery in NYC, she's back in the cloffice (standing tall, doctor's orders) to share the roses and thorns of showing up for a 9am doc appointment and then finding out she's staying put, for now. AND: she reacts to the SHOCKING arrest of RHOP stars Dr. Wendy Osefo and Happy Eddie! What does this mean for their future, and how will it change the press...

Cherry blossom season is in full bloom, so after returning from her European schlep (more on that later), Sarah pours herself a glass of Happy Eddie cola, orders vegan kangaroo sliders from Oz (may its memory...), lights a 10-wick candle, and deep dives her roses (many) and thorns (any?) from RHOP's energetic premiere: new additions to the cast, how Karen's absence may affect the season ahead, Sta...

Sarah continues her European adventure of shrieking in pain when she moves a leg. Prior to icing her back in Paris, she simply must deep dive with one of her fave (honorary) lads of London. So she puts a remote control outside her Pimlico hotel like a bat signal, and just like that (Carrie Bradshaw should join RHONY) her fave superhero appears: Dame Brian Moylan (Founder and President of the Real...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah and AG guest cohost Louis Staples unpack their mutual delight over The Real Housewives of London (and all of the current onscreen drama), Louis' position as a Tamra apologist with...opposing views on Shan, how the franchise moves forward, and more. Sarah didn't receive an official welcome from the royals, but she's been told a red ca...

Sarah continues her London journey with a few friends-of: herniated discs, and a Bravoholic pal with some complicated thoughts on Shan: Louis Staples (writer who covers TV, the Internet, and culture). Over the course of this two-parter, these self-proclaimed ladies of London unpack their mutual delight over The Real Housewives of London (and all of the current onscreen drama), Louis' position as a...

The journey continues. Over the course of this double ep, Sarah unpacks the character trait Tamra shares with Jen Aniston's ex, the importance of cast members keeping some shared secrets/ vulnerability private, Martina's scoff about how her step kids would have preferred handling the adoptions, Jody's ultimatum-ish to Lisa, and Adriana's WTF weaponization of "wretched/ratchet" after finding out Ki...

Sarah gets a call from her dear friend Dicky Branson, to discuss the joys of private travel. She takes him up on an offer of re-watching the cruise episode of Miami while sitting in steerage in a Virgin Atlantic PJ (plus a hundred people) bound for Europe. First stop: London Town. Sarah unpacks her luggage and RIP lower back and deep dives OC and Miami in a two-part journey: the character trait Ta...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-part mention it all, Sarah and AG guest cohost Tom Smyth discuss Bravoholic burnout, Tom's convos with OG RHONYs about leaving Bravo TV, a recording from the WWHL audience featuring Andy's thoughts on Jen Shah (and how the franchise has been able to successfully move forward without her), an instinct Bronwyn and Katie may share, Slade and Gretchen...

Sarah realizes she needs to go broad: Joan Rivers, Carrie Fisher, Nora Ephron, 40% Heather Gay. This is the time to follow vital voices providing refuge and sass. With that in mind, and the SLC premiere still shining bright, she takes a seat on the People's People's Couch to deep dive everything that has provided a necessary, fruitful escape. And who better to mention it all than her pal, Tom Smyt...

Sarah rises to deliver the pledge of allegiance: "Meredith can go f**k herself, I'm done with her. Cause I'm not a f**king w**re and I don't cheat on my husband...she can go f**k herself." Overwhelmed with gratitude for 7-8ish patriots, she takes an RV ride through the very corners of her soul, and the gift that was given to the world last night: the season 6 premiere of RHOSLC. There is much to d...

Sarah celebrates her spiritually mid twenties plus half birthday (so....she's twelve?) by taking an afternoon sprint aboard Richard "Dick" Branson's nearly-private cruise ship with a close circle of several thousand friends-of. After launching a Knives Out style investigation into who needs to be thrown into prison/time out for writing that mean age 'joke' on Adriana's cake, she realizes the next...

Sarah takes an Uber PJ to Temecula, California, after delighting in saying "Temecula" aloud three times and finding herself on Shoma Air (better that than "Hawk Tuah, ammiright). After stumbling her way through a vineyard in Manolos - it's like potholes that make champs - she pours herself a looking glass of the newest RHOC. There are...a few things to unpack: the different lenses Shannon and Tamr...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-part mention it all, Sarah and AG guest cohost Lawrence Yee discuss all the news that's fit to print about Coto de Caza and more: Bravo's underrepresentation of the AAPI community (and how that impacts Katie's experience as the only woman of color on RHOC, including when her identity is being weaponized by the cast), Lawrence's definition of 'blog...
