Cocktails and Gossip

We're so excited to welcome Melissa from @YourBishTherapist to the pod this week. Before we get into it, Amanda has an apology and clarification regarding a statement she made on the podcast last week. We ask Melissa about her thoughts on Kenny and Lindsay from In the City and learn about parental wounds and how they can contribute to the way people act everyday. Melissa has a surprising opinion o...

Happy 4th of July! What we're hearing about the big wedding. Part 2 of the Real Housewives of Rhode Island Reunion - we have some takes on Liz's announcement that she's not returning for season 2 and the Brian and Rulla of it All. Amanda looked up the court documents on Brian's divorce and all the dates Joellen shared on the reunion check out - plus some more details you might want to hear. What a...

Congratulations to Danielle and Eoin from In the City on the birth of their son, Aidan. Sending them well wishes! B has a very funny story about how some juicy tea came together that didn't fully make sense...at first. But a public acknowledgement from a Summer House cast member put all the pieces together and made us laugh out loud. The Real Housewives of Rhode Island reunion part 1 aired this we...

This week we have so much Southern Charm gossip! West Wilson has officially been fired from Southern Charm. And the Real Housewives of Rhode Island finale ended with a bang, but Cocktailers knew about it. Why does Joellen keep letting Liz treat her badly? B has an interesting theory. A Cocktailer saw "THE VIDEO" of Brian and the mistress and described what was allegedly in the video - we share det...

Tracy is here and making us laugh from the jump. Go Knicks, and go Bravo and Cocktails - because we're both having big weeks. Cocktailers knew that Jennifer Lawrence was the one who helped Andy figure out who recorded the audio leak from the Summer House reunion. Lots of people laughed about this and didn't believe us. But we were right. It was confirmed by Zaddy Andy himself - and have details ab...

We're watching Love Island, as promised. We're not so sure about it yet, but giving it a fair shake. Everyone's talking about Amanda Batula's bun; we have theories about it. Plus two exclusives about West and Amanda, including what they were overheard saying about having kids?!?!?! Our theory about why West has been so quiet during the reunion. Cocktailers knew about West's "secret girlfriend", Me...

Breaking news: Did KJ and Dara break up last night? Here's what we know. The Summer House Reunion came in hot and never stopped. B has a theory about who actually leaked that Amanda and West were hooking up. Why was Amanda's reaction to West's nude so strangely gleeful? We've got a theory about that too.  As expected the timeline is a main point of conversation (and contention). We have to ask, wh...

This week, we finally get what we have been asking for. The Summer House folks In the City. And what a wild transition from the Hamptons to NYC it's been. And, Bravo addresses the West/Amanda romance and Amanda and Kyle's breakup all at once. Back to the Hamptons, we see some evidence that Amanda and West were up to no good last summer. Did West do what he did to Ciara because he secretly hates he...

B went to the Vulture Reality TV Masterminds Awards event and has a lot to share with us, including what Kyle's reaction was to her, who she vibed with, and who she met. The next day the Jenn Fessler/West Wilson scandal exploded. We have thoughts both on whether it happened, and how Jenn and West handled it. And on this week's episode of Summer House: What did West whisper to Amanda, and why did p...

We start with some Met Gala tea to cap off Met Gala week. We were a little nervous for Ciara, but she seemingly avoided a wardrobe malfunction. Now that we know what we know about West and Amanda, was this latest episode of Summer House the worst yet? What is "duper's delight" and why is everyone talking about it this week? What was Amanda's motivation in going so hard for Ciara in her conversatio...

We have been bamboozled, hoodwinked, swindled by Steven McBee. Will we even watch the show now that we know different? B got intel that the person who helped Bravo crack the case on who recorded the leaked Summer House audio was no other than Jennifer Lawrence, Academy Award winner and Bravo fan. West Wilson is enduring a family tragedy. We recap the other audio leaks and it just raises more quest...

RHONJ cameras are UP and they are filming at the most iconic spot, Rails Steakhous...

Our thoughts on the Real Housewives of Atlanta newbies. And Drew Sidora's ex makes how much more money than her? We have questions about this. Real Housewives of Rhode Island is a chaotic mess and we are loving every minute. The cheating podiatrist's mistress is giving us Fatal Attraction vibes and now the cheating podiatrist is suing her. Listen to find out why he's suing. And we have a little te...

Post(s) from Bravoandcocktails.com were featured on the In the City trailer! We do a mini dive on all the new housewives of Rhode Island...with some exclusive tea thrown in. These women have lots of skeletons in their closets, to say it lightly. The Valley is back. Did we actually just side with Janet on something? Exclusive tea about Jesse Lally's girlfriend and what happened off-camera that may...

Guys! Things have been wild this week! We recorded this podcast on Wednesday, a day earlier than usual. And then all h*ll broke loose on Thursday about Amanda and West, so B recorded an emergency podcast on Thursday evening for our Cocktail Party members. Because this is such big tea, we decided to go ahead and add the emergency podcast to the end of this episode so all of you can get the most up-...

It's true, we're hearing that Real Housewives of Miami is cancelled. We will share everything we're hearing about why.

Dara and KJ - adding more...

Our hearts are heavy regarding the news of the death of Mary Cosby's son, Robert Jr. We send Mary all the love. B is back in the country and ready to gossip.

What's going on with Real Housewives of Miami? IS IT CANCELLED???...

B is on vacation, so this week we have Tracy on the podcast joining Amanda. Charleston's lost boys continue to be messy. A slightly different angle on why we don't want to see Salley's "pick me" energy. Why is Whitner still single? Real Housewives of Potomac's reunion Part 1. Wendy is whispering - is this performative or is she a shell of her former self? And why didn't their conversation give us...

Jill Zarin has been fired from her job on The Golden Life before she even started filming.
