The Reality Is

We're talking Summer House and Netflix's "The Big Day" (27:59).

Whether we're talking about actual weather in Texas or Heather and Whitney from SLC, this week Real Housewives across the country spun us into a whirlwind of excellent reality television.  Here's how you can do more for Texas, than Ted Cruz - please Venmo what you can to: @austinmutualaid (Austin) @feedthepeopledallas (Dallas) @dfwmutualaid (Dallas Fort Worth) @sunriseelpaso.org (El Paso) @tr...

We're talking Summer House but more importantly, we're recapping an amazing show on Netflix called "Buried By The Bernards" which showed us a hilarious and heartwarming look at running a funeral home. 

It was a week of microagressions: from not actually impeaching Trump, the Bachelor hosts asking for grace for a racist cast member, to the RHOD ladies picking on Tiffany because she has a schedule and thinks removing shoes is important IN A PANDEMIC. We talk about all of it and then we laugh our asses off about RHOSLC Reunion Part 1 because Lisa Barlow came guns blazing and well...we love that .&n...

Tom Brady is the Bethenny of Sports Balls, Hannah is terrible, and House of Ho on HBO Max is fantastic family drama reality tv. 

Before we get into the hilarity of Kenya Moore not feeding her guests in Atlanta (12:00), Kary weaponizing her child's mental health issues in Dallas (22:40), and Jen Shah's epic nosedive into terrible housewife territory (31:11), we thought it was important to discuss the #FarmersProtests in India (4:47).  Below are some resources to get a better understanding on what it was Rihanna tweeted...

Before we get into our recap of Bling Empire Eps 4-8, we had to talk about Jen Shah's absolutely deplorable Instagram post. After discussing a nose dive more epic than The Countess tumbling into a bush, we talk about Bling Empire and tell you why we would also make Kevin our brother. 

Something happened this week with Cher and maybe she squeezed into some shorts near some hedges?! Then a bunch of nerds got rich?! Well it wasn't us! So we try to talk about that poorly and move onto the ups and downs of bravo this week, on and off tv! 

We recapped the first 4 episodes of Bling Empire and are obsessed with every single person on the show! Listen in!

We are diving into an incredible moment in history: Bernard sanders memes. JUST KIDDING. Obvi, we talk about the historic Inauguration! We also talk about RHOA, RHOD, and RHOSLC. And in case anyone was wondering (no one is wondering), Noor shares her clunky COVID19 vaccine journey.

Between moldy tin tubs at a spa in SLC and acting a damn fool at dim sum in Dallas...we had to ask...white people...why?

We collaborated with Noor's other podcast ( Raju Bangaya Podcast - a podcast about Shah Rukh Khan ) to discuss the BIG BASH at Gauri Khan's house. In the finale of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood wives we learned that all this money and these ladies are as thirsty as the cast of Vanderpump Rules. Check out Raju Bangaya Podcast on Instagram and Twitter !

We decompressed our thoughts on domestic terrorism by the hands of white supremacists on our Capitol this week, which was a great segue to Dallas's Brandi Redmond, the racist. In Atlanta, classic Kenya is activated and in Salt Lake City, Whitney drank too much and we got a textbook Housewives messy moment.  @therealityispod ( twitter + IG )

Karan Johar thinks we were born yesterday as he presents us with the phoniest corniest biggest ad for Qatar tourism of a cast trip on the 6th and 7th episode of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. Listen in as we complain. 

This week we dedicated an entire episode to RHOP S5 (on and off camera) / Reunion Part 3, and pray to all of the lords that we never have to ever speak about The Samuels vs. The Universe ever again. This SNL skit is truly what it has been like discussing anything about Potomac this season. We can't wait to move on to bigger and better things like agreeing that it's perplexing that Southern Charm a...

We are immigrant women who love to dust off our soap boxes to make a statement about appropriation, so naturally we had to spend a portion of today's episode talking about the HILLARY Baldwin fiasco before diving into a rather lack-luster episode of Bollywood Wives (episode 5). 

This week we are recapping RHOP Reunion Part 2 and want you to know that we are not team Candiace, or team Monique, or team Gizelle. We are team shade and snacks (which is actually Robyn). We are audibly gasping and cringing while Cynthia plans her super spreader wedding on RHOA, and Porsha smokes hookahs. And are still perplexed as to the fandom for Meredith Marks and her weird son on RHOSLC.&nbs...

We're recapping Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives Episode 4! We dive into Bhavna's skin care routine, Samir's hatred of small talk (ugh same), and why it is confusing that MILF is offensive when we know way worse Hindi/Urdu obscenities.

We are helping you pre-game for RHOP Reunion Part 2 by recapping Reunion Part 3, discussing colorism, the extremely problematic Jamal Bryant, and why people love Monique despite her Q*non level beliefs. We also chat about the worst husband since Shane Simpson, Ralph Pittman and if Mary Cosby is damaged or a weirdo OR BOTH! @therealityispod ( twitter + IG )

We're recapping Episode 3 of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives and going on multiple tangents about peeing outdoors, the value of gold, and allergies!  instagram.com/therealityispod twitter.com/therealityispod

We're talking about all the great things coming out of bravo this week: Jax is out, Braunwyn is out, Mary is out as a self-loathing racist, Cynthia's nipples are out, RHOP goes out with a bang!  twitter.com/therealityispod instagram.com/therealityispod

We break down Episode 2 of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives and answer burning questions like, Who are all these Kapoors and why are there so many? What IS le Bal? Why are the ladies so nervous about Karan Johar? Is he the Minister of Crab?!? And so much more! instagram.com/therealityispod

This week we discuss RHOP and RHOSLC not without taking multiple detours on corrupt and philandering preachers and generational trauma of immigrant children. Spoiler alert: Men are trash and Colonialism as fucked us all the way up!  twitter.com/therealityispod instagram.com/therealityispod

Someone (Karan Johar, the Andy Cohen of India) combined the trash we watched as kids with the trash we're watching as adults, to give us The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. This week we're talking about Episode 1, discussing the D-Listiness of it all, Aarti's connections to Neelam, and what is a bichari. 

We are giggling through the revelations in RHOP, like Karen's preferred method of self care and Gizelle's hosiery, and furrowing our brows at RHOSLC Mary's preacher voice and the one episode wonder that is Brooks Marks.  twitter.com/therealityispod instgram.com/therealityispod
