The Reality Is

We had a great time binging episodes 1-4 of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip and were truly blown away but how likable everyone but Ramona is! 

Everyone wants to know who called the Feds on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City but we wanna know how Meredith isn't a human prune after all that time in the tub! And on Real Housewives of Potomac Reunion Part 2, we suspect that perhaps all of these women are just secretly best friends and this is all one big act (that we can't get enough of)!

We're taking your questions from the Patreon "Ask Your Aunties" tier, we're introducing a new segment called "Good Tweet Bad Tweet" and we're talking about Scheana's ability to show growth and at the same time not change at all on Vanderpump Rules!

We're recapping 3 hours of some of the best television seen on Bravo, from the non-stop entertainment train of the Real Housewives of Potomac Reunion Part 1 to the runaway train or rather truck of one Jennifer Shah from the Feds on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Don't worry we dive into how absolutely batsh*t Mary M Cosby is and how unhinged Andy Cohen sounds yelling at Candiace. 

This week our friend Selle, host of @whoaskedmepodcast , hopped on to breakdown Vanderpump Rules and the anticlimactic and down right maddening final part of the unnecessary four part reunion of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. We also go deep into our problems with Bravo as a whole which actually mirror a lot of the problems in American society. Talk about problematic! Follow @ whoaskedmepodcast...

We're talking about the breaking new of Real Housewives of Dubai, breaking down the truly low budget vow renewal in Real Housewives of Potomac, and discussing the totally not subtle on screen scheming of Lisa Barlow in Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.

Friends, we will be very honest with you this week of Bravo TV felt as uninspired as Schwartz & Sandy's, but we nevertheless we persevered, we watched Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Vanderpump Rules, we took notes, we talked about it, and then we took a detour about the American fast food experience overseas. ENJOY!

This is an episode from our friend Les Kurdendaal-Barrett's podcast "The Reality Reading Rainbow" with our friend Taria Faison from What Else is Going On podcast. We had a great deep dive into our feelings about Bravo's "diversity and inclusion" and Bravo viewers and even podcasters as of late. We don't hold back! 

This week on Real Housewives of Potomac, Karen inserted herself into a cake and on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City everyone inserted themselves into silly little fights. 

This week on the bonus our dear friend, current CEO of DumpsterStar DiveCo, and future President of the Fluff & Fold Laundry Empire, Tom Hamlett hopped on to "talk about" the season 3 premiere of HBO's Succession. Yes, talk about is in quotations because in true Dumpster Diva fashion we talked about many other things that have nothing to do with Succession. Subscribe, rate, and review Dumpster...

This week the new Summer House spinoff, Winter House premiered which made us run, not walk, to the nearest clinic to get tested for STI's we may have caught from simply watching this show. On Vanderpump Rules, Tom Sandoval lost his marbles and Tom Schwartz continued to make us feel terrible for Katie. And on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Erika told lies and Bravo editors tried to convince us t...

What a week of shitty dudes on bravo huh? Between Gordon on Real Housewives of Potomac and Duy and Robert Sr on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, the thirst is not just real but it's exhausting to watch. 

Never did we imagine that one day Vanderpump Rules would be the most wholesome content on Bravo, but here. we. are. We're talking about the proposal of Noor and Raquel's dreams on Vanderpump Rules. And then we're encouraging you to heavily medicate or not and just rage with us as we dive into the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Reunion Part 1. 

This week Noor subjects Aarti to making a case for Candiace on behalf of Candee-Gals and Bassett Hounds scream-watching Real Housewives of Potomac everywhere. It does not go as planned but no lettuce was harmed during the making of this podcast. Then in Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Mary gave us many moments of wisdom, some truly wise and others that broke our brains. 

This week on VPR, Tom Sandoval did too much but somehow Lala did even more and all she got was a lousy sheet cake. Over on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, what was more confusing than Erika's stories were Erika, Kyle, and Rinna's lewks at Crystal's fabulous Chinese New Year Party. 

This week on Real Housewives of Potomac some how a horribly creepy old dude who makes dick jokes, pantomimes sex, and tells his wife to STFU was overshadowed by Candiace losing her cool. Over on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, we had the case of the mysterious last minute catering cancelation which resulted in a classic and hilarious Housewives fight. 

Friend of the pod and pop culture, bravo, reality tv, VPR aficionado Kara Berry host of Everyone's Business But Mine joined us this week as we reluctantly watched the return of Vanderpump Rules and much like the unexpected rush of emotions from a "pre-workout pill", were surprised at just how great it was! We also talked about RHOBH and wondered who clocked Kathy in the head with a golf ball durin...

This week the ladies on RHOP showed us that great reality television is made on driveways, in front of construction, with paddles, and shade and the ladies on RHOSLC proved again what we already know about all of them except for Mary who somehow manages to surprise us every week.

The ladies in RHOBH head to a creepy hotel, Erika lies as usual, the ladies don't call her out, and then they all decide to grill Garcelle for no reason at all. We also ask a question from our Patreon "Ask Your Aunties" level Patron. Support us there on patreon.com/therealityispod

We're breaking down this week's hilariously messy RHOP episode courtesy Miss Dotty and hilariously delusional RHOSLC episode courtesy all of them! Enjoy! Patreon.com/therealityispod

Friend of the pod Sonia Sells hopped on to talk about a BLESSED Sunday where the House of Huger met the Church of Cosby and Lord was it glorious.  Follow Sonia Sells on Tiktok @nochilarybanks & Twitter @soniamariesays .  The Reality Is is now on Patreon! Patreon.com/therealityispod

We're breaking down this week's Real Housewives of Potomac and discovering that the root of all the problems is misdirected anger which should be directed at Michael Darby. We're also answering some questions from our Patreon "Ask Your Aunties" Mailbag.  Patreon.com/therealityispod

We said good bye for now to RHONY or at least they finally drop the Reunion which...who knows when that'll be and said OH HI HELLOOOOO to one of the greatest episodes of Housewives of all times in RHOBH.  Patreon.com/therealityispod

We're diving into the aftermath of the Ashley Darby Williamsburg Dumpster Fire Incident of 2021 and asking important questions like "do we think our husbands would be beloved or hated on tv?". We also dive into Shahs of Sunset reunion/finale and discuss how stupid everyone is, as usual.  Patreon is Launched!

The ladies of RHOBH laughably try to come for Garcelle and Sutton and the ladies of RHONY laughably try to convince us they’re friends.
