Latest Episodes:

Topdog/Underdog (with Tracie Morrissey) Nov 12, 2022

Show notes

Sarah celebrates Bethenny's Housewives pod premiere the best way she knows how: by not listening and forming an opinion regardless (Bethenny would approve!). She Zooms up one of her fave Bethenny translators - who also hasn't listened to B's pod, because #BStrong starts from within - Tracie Morrissey (writer, producer, host of the pod Pot Psychology, and owner of pipedreams.fun). They discuss the resentment that has been long-simmering underneath Bethenny's post-Housewives projects, including in her critiques of her former cast, the curse of the third season friendship fracture (which now includes the entirety of the Salt Lake City cast), and the ways Heather is playing opposing roles in her battles with Lisa and Whitney, with mixed results. Angie Harrington may have selective memory, but this convo is one you won't forget - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 360!

Rihanna? No, Ramona (with Daniel Stokes) Nov 08, 2022

Show notes

Sarah heads to her local polling location, determined to cast her ballot on Candiace vs. Ashley, Gizelle and Robyn vs. Candiace, Dr. Wendy vs. incomplete note pads, and Karen vs. the wind. After voting for NY governor - Bethenny ran uncontested, smh - Sarah Zooms up one of her fave patriotic Bravoholics, Daniel Stokes (culture programs lead at Brex and cohost of the pod "Thots and Prayers"). They discuss the ways Dr. Wendy's on/off camera branding confusion intersects with her Housewives identity, what Candiace's reaction to Ashley's 'reveal' says about her personal growth, and the ever-changing and always prestige relationship storytelling on Married to Med. Gizelle has a storyline, and it's hiding from what Daniel has to say - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 359!

Angie Donatacci Grammer (with Damian Bellino) Nov 05, 2022

Show notes

Sarah makes matching friendship bracelets to share with her best friend - Shan, obvs - and pops it in the mail, care of The Quiet Woman. She decides to continue her Celebration of Friendship Day - with more than a few opposing views, as God/Andy Cohen intended - by having a cloffice kiki with OG of the AG Damian Bellino (writer, producer, and co-host of the pod "You Might Know Her From"). They discuss whether RHOBH can move on from this season if Rinna stays in the cast, the battle by proxy on Salt Lake, Mia's Drew-esque energy (and creative freedom from facts), and what it means for Bethenny to host a Housewives-themed pod, in light of her "I'm up here" post-Bravo brand. Sarah has thoughts about the youthfulness of the RHONY reboot cast, as an expert in being Spiritually Mid-Twenties Plus - and fellow youth, it's Andy's Girls, Episode 358!

We're on Appeal (with Michael Arceneaux) Nov 01, 2022

Show notes

With just a week to go before the midterms, Sarah rushes to the polls (Team Candiace vs. Gizelle, Rinna vs. Humanity, Kyle vs. Kath). She realizes that the importance of voting when one is properly informed, so she immediately Zooms up one of her fave Bravoholic truth tellers, Michael Arceneaux (New York Times bestselling author, "I Can't Date Jesus" and "I Don't Want to Die Poor"). They discuss the complicated journey watching Rinna act as Kyle's surrogate sister, the selective use of innocence and guilt with friendships on Salt Lake, and the ways Michael is continuing to assert control during his separation from Ashley. If Eric Adams becomes a friend-of on the new RHONY, hopefully he resolves NYC's biggest debate (who is on Legacy and when can we watch) - and it's Andy's Girls, Episode 357!

We Did It, Joe! (with James LaRosa) Oct 29, 2022

Show notes

Sarah goes up to the DJ at the Caribou Club and makes a special request that is immediately approved - playing "Survivor" on a 40 year loop, in honor of this season of BH finally coming to an end! Sarah replicates one of Kyle's party splits, during which her lower body holds its series finale. After returning from Urgent Care (also a plea to the production behind RHOBH), she Zooms up one of her Bravo besties, the multi-hyphenate James LaRosa (writer, producer, director, creator, show runner, and close personal friend of whomever Rinna hates most). They discuss the concept of active allyship that Kyle and Kathy seem to have trouble applying to their relationship on reality TV and IRL, silence vs. sisterhood, nefarious intent on Beverly Hills vs. Potomac vs. Salt Lake City, and why some Housewives are choosing alliances with bad actors vs. the truth. You could call BH Season 12 "Survivor: Blood vs. Water," but regardless, it's on appeal for legal reasons - and it's Andy's Girls, Episode 356!

Anything for a Gordita Crunch (with Brian Moylan) Oct 26, 2022

Show notes

Sarah realizes this ep should take inspo from an iconic moment from Potomac, so she immediately calls Eric to the cloff so they can break the fourth wall. Unfortunately, he doesn't answer (and honestly the cloffice walls are kinda hard to break), so she makes an even better call - Zooming up the President of the Real Housewives Institute, and Sarah's religious deity in the world of Bravo writing, Brian Moylan (President and Founder of the Real Housewives Institute, and author of the New York Times bestseller, "The Housewives: The Real Story Behind The Real Housewives"). They discuss the differences between friendship value systems on Potomac vs Beverly Hills, Candiace's Meghan King Edmonds energy, and the differences in how the network responded to Teresa's guilty plea vs Bravo's potential plans for Jen Shah (let alone the reactions from their respective casts). Lays Potato Chip people, if you're listening, AG loves a salty crunch - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 355!

See You Next Tuesday (with BravoBravoDuckingBravo) Oct 23, 2022

Show notes

Welcome to the AG C-SPAN spectacular, because Rinna is losing her mind online (as opposed to any other day of the week). Sarah spots a widely inappropriate IG story that Rinna posted about Kyle and Paris, and immediately Zooms up her spiritual gummy, and a guide through the madness, content creator Bravo Bravo Ducking Bravo. They unpack Rinna's manipulation of Paris' trauma in order to shame Kathy (apparently other children are not off-limits, unlike Rinna's own), Kyle's problematic description of "clean" microaggressions in her conversation with Crystal, and the ways Candiace's powerful fourth wall breaking on Potomac is miles above the storytelling on Bev Hills. The word "evil" is used, let's wait for the Fox Force to stop screaming in shock - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 354!

BravoConvo: We Mention It All! (with Dylan Hafer) Oct 18, 2022

Show notes

It's been a weekend of highs (Sarah finally met a certain future husband) and lows (the wedding has not yet taken place), and after 3 full days at BravoCon, she is ready to mention it all! So Sarah invites over her Bravo bestie and fellow BravoCon attendee, and someone who knows a thing or two about mentioning it all, Dylan Hafer (content manager, pop culture at Betches Media, host of the pod Mention It All, and creator of @BravoByBetches). They discuss panel MVPs, the sometimes-fraught audience Q&As, viral BH panel chaos (LOL), WWHL's Legends Ball, and overall roses and thorns. BravoCon may be over, but Sarah's heart (and iPhone storage) are filled with love, love, love - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 353!

The Sound of Silence (with Emerson Collins) Oct 16, 2022

Show notes

It's Bravocon weekend (!!), so Sarah preps for the journey to the motherland the best way she knows how: by Zooming up an expert in the fine art of Bravoholic Expressionism, Emerson Collins (actor, producer, nonprofit director, and former cast member on "The People's Couch"). Hot off the Beverly Hills reunion, they discuss remaining questions around what actually happened between Sutton and Crystal, the disconnection in a cast framework of crediting Dorit for courageously protecting her children during a violent act and judging/'correcting' Garcelle and Jax's responses to death threats he received, and why Kyle should consider retiring from her volunteer position as Diana's intention translator. Sarah may have gotten spiritual hives from BH, but luckily Potomac and Salt Lake are the perfect antidote (as might this deep dive) - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 352!

Burying the Lede (with Erica Cobb) Oct 11, 2022

Show notes

Sarah downs a few mini tacos - likely not meant for human consumption - after opening the invite for Karen's Spring into Spring Kickoff/Celebration of Life Taco Party Event Because Let's Have Some FabFitFunBox-y Times OK Great, and celebrates the Potomac premiere the best way she knows how - with a supersized AG event! First, she invites one of her fave guest co-hosts over to the cloff: Erica Cobb (co-host Daily Blast Live, and host of 'Comeback with Erica Cobb,' avail on Ebony Podcast Network). They explore the Wikipedia energy Rinna is using to define the extensive and complex relationship between Kathy and Kyle (bcc: Kim), and an empathetic approach to understanding Meredith's upset on Salt Lake (and the ways Jen seems to factor into multiple gossip-as-fact 'reveals'). Sarah also unpacks the Potomac premiere, including the continuing complications in Ashley and Michael's relationship, and why he seemingly relishes in breaking boundaries and maintaining control. Potomac is back, and so is the elusive chanteuse (Sarah's cackle over two+ hours) - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 351!
