Aleen and Sami talk about Jax and Brittany getting engaged. There seems to be a gross over-emphasis on the size of their ring. At 6:36, they move on to an even higher profile engagement, Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande. Could it be a PR stunt? Nobody knows. At 18:53, they take an email from a listener struggling to get a job; she gets to the last round, but she can't close the deal. What's the pro...

Jordana and Sami talk about Khloe Kardashian and judging reality stars. Does dealing with criticism come with the territory or do reality stars have a right to say, “f*ck off”?

Learn more about your a...

Jordana and Sami wax condescending on a huge variety of topics this ep. starting with their equal love of obscure movie quotes.

In 2018's second episode, Sami and Aleen start the show dishing on Vanderpump Rules.
