Andy's Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast

Hallelujah, hallelujah. Sarah prayed for a day like this, a convo like this. A convening of two Bravoholics with different perspectives on Shamea, Porsha, and more. The juice is freshly squeezed, the peach is perfectly in season (17), and this is a convo that produced what prev guest Lea Palmieri described as a "s**t-eating grin." (Video era coming!) Sarah is joined by her pal, Richie Skye (pop cu...

The journey continues. Over the course of this sweet life, peach life, two-parter, Sarah and AG guest cohost Courtney Revolution unpack the highs, lows, and whoas from the second part of the RHOA reunion (and second ep of RHUGT), including Shamea and K. Michelle's different version of events in how their relationship started and WTF happened at the hookah bar (shoutout to Mama Morton's...zest), Cy...

Inspired by the second part of the Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion, Sarah heads to Melissa Gorga's mansion's basement studio to remix Cynthia's new bop (DJ 55 Cynt and DJ Spiritually Mid-Twenties Plus? Magic). After realizing a 16 bar cut really requires more than a couple jabs, Sarah returns to the cloff to deep dive the splendor that is RHOA alongside a creator ready to mention it all, Courtn...

The journey continues. Over the course of this bedazzled spectacular, Sarah and AG guest cohost Michael Arceneaux unpack RHUGT's premiere (and just-released clips from the second episode), Nene's triumphant return to Bravo (and prestige placement on the ep), Vicki's locked-in LinkedIn persona (and outdated instincts on what makes a all-star ensemble show work), a misunderstanding around conflict a...

Before relishing in a main course, sometimes you have to suffer through some wilted lettuce that may or may not be contaminated (do not ask the RHOC ladies if they believe in the CDC). And so, Sarah realizes that before she can throw a celebration of life (not in the funereal way, bcc Phaedra Parks, on call), for part 1 of the RHOA reunion, she needs to unpack some other....stuff. And who better t...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah and AG guest cohost Julia Cunningham deep dive their reactions to House of Stassi, from her marital opposite-of-bliss, re-imaging of gender politics in an unhappy marriage, uneasy friend circle dynamics (and some foundational history missing from season 1), the missing elements in Stassi's "cancellation," as well as Bravo's decision...

Woe is me, and Beau is me, after Sarah inadvertently completes a House of Stassi marathon (no need to carb/protein load, when the best prep is exercising one's shudder and squint). After finishing the finale, she realizes the best way to process this Bravo-adjacent binge is her Bravoholic pal, and Radio Andy star, Julia Cunningham (host, "The Julia Cunningham Show," live daily on SiriusXM's Radio...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah and AG guest cohost Troy McEady unpack Bethenny's journey on-and-off Bravo and current Supermodel Cottage Cheese era, a reality reckoning for her alleged entanglements with various small businesses, the just-released RHOSLC trailer, the vibes from RHOC Season 20 (justice for Heather Dubrow's checking/savings!), Porsha and Shamea's co...

Sarah asks Jeeves: "who is the best truth teller also known for chicken salad who equally hates and craves attention by the fandom?" And Alta Vista answers: "you know who. She lives within us all. Also, Cindy Barshop recommends you go to Quogue." With one answer to the universe solved, Sarah realizes there are a few more that need to be discussed, and unlike Ultimate Girl's Trip: Morocco, this epi...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-part mention it all, Sarah and AG guest cohost Kiki Monique discuss Kiki’s friendship with Dorinda, a concerning shift away from representation on and off reality TV, Stassi's new spinoff on Hulu (and how the show is framing her 'cancellation'), how the "respect the villains" code applies to West and Amanda and "In the City" season 2, Kyle's "yes,...

Sarah realizes it's time to have a kiki: cloffice edition. It's Radio Andy week in the cloffice, with Sarah kiki'ing with a few of her fave Radio Andy friends and hosts. And the kiki queen is none other than Kiki herself, Kiki Monique (aka The Talk of Shame on social, and host of Reality Checked on Radio Andy). Over the course of this two-part mention it all, Sarah and Kiki discuss Kiki’s friendsh...

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-part mention it all, Sarah and AG guest cohost Dylan Hafer unpack the continued darkness on The Valley (and false equivocations about Danny v. Janet, including that solo cup moment vs. Danny's repeated acts), In the City's pilot episode season, Lindsay Hubbard, Apex Predator (and thank god for that!), Amanda's second at-bat revising history and th...

"I dreamed a dream of time gone by, when The Valley was fun, if that ever happened." Sarah realizes her lyrical work may need another pass, but the sentiment behind it? Also may need another pass. And yet, "Les Mis" does encompass some of the Bravo stars currently feeling the heat (but thankfully enough, not all of them). And who better to have a few notes about this 16-bar cut than a fellow Bravo...

The journey continues. Over the course of this orange scented double episode, Sarah and AG guest cohost Lawrence Yee unpack parenting on RHOC, an unsteady truce amongst Tres Amigas Vicki, Shannon, and Tamra, increasing representation of AAPI Housewives on Bravo, Terry's response to questions about his money, Emily and Gina's history on the franchise (an actual solid friendship! It's possible!), Sa...

Orange you glad to see me, the Gods of RHOC ask Sarah, as she says "new number, who this." Why, it's season 20, worthy at least of a few deep dives into the past, present, and future of The Real Housewives of Orange County. So Sarah scoots over to the cloffice for a Zoom kiki with her Bravoholic pal, veteran entertainment editor, Lawrence Yee. Over the course of this orange scented double episode,...

The journey continues. Over the course of this epic two parter, Sarah and AG guest cohost Brice Sander react to the RHONY trailer ("!"), Angie K. and Shawn *and* Whitney and Justin's alleged separations, possible changes in RHOSLC dynamics because of a switch with production, what Ariana told Brice about her friendship with Riley amid on-air tension, whether Georgia should have told Emira off-came...

"Entertainment, Tonight!" So sayeth associate producer Tofu Galli, after spending several hours on YouTube searching for Diane Sawyer interviews with Bravolebs (tough to do with paws). Sarah gently steers him in the right direction (to the cloffice, obvs) for a necessary status update (Trailers! Breakups! Birkins!) with thee Diane Sawyer of Bravo, Brice Sander (Chief Real Housewives Correspondent,...

The Greek ruins have nothing on Salt Lake (allegedly). After hearing the sad news that RHOSLC star Angie Katsanevas and Shawn Trujillo are separating after nearly 3 decades of marriage, Sarah runs to the People's People's Divorce Court to deep dive the shock news, speculation about season 7, word on the street as to what led to the split, and more. She also deep dives the season finale - and futur...

Sarah watches the explosive (truly, Chris Nolan based "Oppenheimer" on the rumors about Miss Diane and Mom of Shamea) new episode of RHOA and realizes it's a shame, a true shame, Tobes is no longer in NYC - because watching her watch this moment? Cinema. Hilling. A new family tradition. Scottish stuff. After re-attaching Sarah's jaw - which fell a few floors - she's ready to deep dive one of the w...

Life's a gift, that's why we call it the present (esp when Amanda and West's time on Summer House is now, officially, in the past). On the heels of Bravo's official announcement about the S11 cast - out today - it's the perfect time to share a recent convo with Bravoholic and writer Taylor Crumpton. Sarah and Taylor deep dive their thoughts on the season of RHOA so far, plus Taylor's EBONY Magazin...

And....she's back. After Tobes' night at the theatre and also the next day, Sarah returns to the cloffice to deep dive the RHOC season 20 premiere, including Vicki's return to the franchise with a full-time orange, the return of Dos Amigas, the potential return of Tamra v. Heather, the return of an Emily/Shane question mark marital status, the return of returning - and some thoughts on a franchise...

It's a family affair (no, not the time a young Sarah said her dad was having an affair in the hopes of securing 16 Hanukkahs). Sarah's mom Toby Galli makes her triumphant-ish debut on the pod (only 800+ eps in, BCC her memorable Patreon episode) to discuss her reaction to RHORI as a Rhode Islander, meeting her furry grandson, Jen Pedranti's announcement that an unnamed son was involved in a 7-acre...

In honor of this week's 20th anniversary premiere of the Real Housewives of Orange County, it's the perfect time to re-visit Sarah's favorite convo on Andy's Girls. Her number 1 episode out of 800+, thanks to her all-time fave Housewife, Shannon Beador. Over the course of this convo from 2024 (#memories), Sarah and Shannon sit down in the cloff and deep dive Shannon's journey on and off Bravo TV,...

The journey continues. Over the course of this Stars and Stripes (BUT NOT THE JAIL KIND/"ongoing") spectacular, Sarah and AG guest cohost Jake Cornell discuss Liz McGraw's surprise decision to leave RHORI (and her public warning against rumors and nastiness, bcc Reddit), how the show will move forward without a central OG, the importance of casting a friend circle with genuine decades'-long histor...

Sarah leaves a message for the RI congressional delegation, suggesting that - in honor of July 4 and the impeccable first season of RHORI - the Bill of Rights be updated to acknowledge Billy's optimistic work encouraging Alicia to sit in meetings about her financial well being. After being told that Congress is actually hard at work ensuring that season two have no less than 78 episodes, she reali...
