A RHONY Reunion and A RHOBH Premier Feat. The Brooke Ashley (RHOSLC, RHOBH, RHONY Reunion) Oct 25, 2023

Show notes

Whats up Bros?! Today we have a very special guest, The Brooke Ashley, here to help us break down the RHONY reunion. We also talk some RHOSLC as well before doing a preview of RHOBH which premieres TONIGHT! Was this first season of RHONY a solid building block for the franchise? And who do we think is not coming back to the show? We all agree, RHOSLC is back on solid ground as they continue to have a solid season after last years upset. But is Monica doing too much or is she the perfect addition to the cast? Finally, RHOBH is coming back tonight and we are all so excited. However some questions remain... Can the show be great without Lisa Rinna? In our opinion Rinna was holding the show back so were excited to see what these ladies can do without her being part of the equation. Brooke Ashley also shares with us HER power rankings of RHOSLC and all in all we had an absolute blast with her recapping this week! If you don't already, head to her YouTube Page @ The Brooke Ashley and give her a follow!

Greek Easter Gone Wrong (RHOSLC Full Review) Oct 20, 2023

Show notes

Whats up Bro's? We got a RHOSLC review for you today coming from a sick Steel and a sad Shooter since the Phillies just got spanked by the Diamondbacks... but that's neither here nor there! In this weeks episode, we dive into our rose and thorn before we recap Salt Lake. Its Greek Easter in Utah and we're seeing a lot of fractures amongst the group. Angie is throwing a party for everyone and invites Monica despite her repeating the rumor about her husband. Meanwhile Meredith gets snubbed from the invite list. Mary finds out that her son (who lives with her) has been married for over a year in a very bizarre conversation. At Greek Easter, Angie K pulls Monica aside to talk about the rumor. While Monica took it too far by telling not only Angie about the rumor but also Lisa and other members of the group, Angie seems to place all of the blame on Monica for the rumor and all Monica did was relay it. Its a classic Meredith move as well, reference a rumor, don't say what it is, and let someone else drop the bomb. Shit hits the fan when Monicas mom, Linda, LD for short... interjects in one of the weirder moves we've seen on a housewives show. She attempts to play referee and instead of staying neutral or taking Monica's side, she takes Angie's side and subsequently embarrasses her daughter in front of the entire party. While some may feel that Monica shouldn't speak to her mom that way, what we saw was a narcissistic mother attempting to gaslight her own daughter to look better on TV.

Bro-Code? More like No-Code (Southern Charm Full Recap, RHONY Finale Full Recap) Oct 19, 2023

Show notes

What's up Bro's?! Sh*t hit the fan in Charleston as the group finds out that Austin and Taylor made out. She is weirdly accepting of Austin's apology but Craig is wary of the whole situation. Austin lied to not only his close friends but the entire group for the past 6 months. Meanwhile, instead of allowing Taylor to tell Olivia about the make-out, Austin swore her to secrecy and he ended up spilling the beans to Shep and completely throws Taylor under the bus. They have the most awkward dinner of the year and we're serving pheasant! Shep invites everyone in the group despite the fact that multiple parties are not getting along right now. She rips Austin a new one and rightfully so... Can Olivia make amends with Austin or Taylor? Should she? We sure hope not. Then, RHONY has come to an end and we really enjoyed this first season! Was it perfect? No. Was it entertaining? Yes! And it has a lot of room to grow so we hope that it will continue to get better over the years. In this episode, Jessel stands her ground and stops taking crap from San. It's Brynn's birthday party and it's a masquerade affair. Ubah stands by Jessel throughout this episode calling out that Jessel and Pavits marriage is NOBODY ELSES BUSINESS! Meanwhile Erin can't pick a side as she sides with Sai for the past few weeks but then wants to make nice with Jessel at the same time. It all comes to a head when we hear about Ubah's new man. What was originally a secret came to light when Sai started gossiping about it. She then tries to blame Brynn for the secret coming out but at the end of the day... Sai's the snitch...

"F Off Andy!" (RHOC Reunion, RHOSLC Full Recap) Oct 13, 2023

Show notes

What's up Bros?! THE PHILLIES ARE GOING TO THE NLCS AND RED OCTOBER CONTINUES! But back to the Bravo. This week we wrap up RHOC (finally) with part 2 of the reunion. This was actually a pleasant surprise and had more of the season been like this then maybe we wouldn't have hated it so much. Shannon takes center stage as she tries to explain away her behavior. She still seems to point all fingers at Heather even the whole group chimes in that they also discussed her relationship. Shannon eventually admits that she is embarrassed about the whole situation but its two steps forward and three steps back. Andy puts Tamra on the hot seat and multiple women bring up evidence of Tamra saying mean things and stirring the pot. Andy himself calls her out and she tells him to "F off" and "be quiet... Hopefully that's the last we see of Tamra on this show. Overall, the ladies actually air out a lot of their grievances amongst each other and it makes for a pretty solid finale to a really bad season. Thank god its over... Then in RHOSLC, we have the aftermath of the rumor. Angie confronts Meredith at the party but Meredith doesn't seem to have time for it as she walks away. We get a behind the scenes look with Angie and her husband and while the sentiment is sweet that they are a united front, we couldn't help but feel like this scene was a little forced. Then we get a family scene with Monica and she has her hands full as a single mom. Meanwhile her relationship with her Mom seems fairly toxic and Monica prides herself on being a better mom than what she had to grow up with. It ends with Whitney and Heather discussing Jack's mission and whether or not they have an obligation to discuss what a mission entails with Lisa and or Jack...

Mini Golf, Banh Mi and Bullies (RHONY Full Recap, Southern Charm Full Recap) Oct 11, 2023

Show notes

Whats up Bros?! It is still Red October in Philly and the Bro's are working overtime. Between Phillies baseball, Eagles football and Bravo, our schedules are packed and we wouldn't have it any other way. This episode, we cover RHONY and Sai's getting real old real quick. Her and Erin team up against Jessel and we simply cannot seem to move past the fact that Pavit is flying to Vietnam. The group goes mini golfing together at Swingers (interesting name considering Abe and Erins potential future) and once again Sai and Erin force the issue of Vietnam and Jessel's sex life in front of the whole group. Sai has had a tough season and her and Erin's treatment of Jessel is simply bullying at this point and its really not a good look nor is it fun to watch. Thank god for Jenna Lyons and her compassion for Jessel because she's able to understand that Jessel means well, she's just a little clunky in her delivery. But all in all Sai and Erin need to get a hobby and maybe instead of worrying about Pavit and Jessel, because they seem like the realest couple on the show, maybe worry about your own husbands who can't stop talking about sex. Not to mention a rumor has come out regarding Sai and her current husband and how they may have begun their relationship... Then off to Southern Charm and this episode centers around one thing, Taylor and Austen and what has or hasn't happened between them. It takes place largely at Taylor's day chaser event and after diving into the whole situation we have come up with this. This is not a Shep vs Taylor issue, this is a Shep vs Austen issue AND it is a Taylor vs Olivia issue. Both respective parties need to have these convos but we feel as though Shep and Taylor are done, Olivia and Austen are done, this is a breach of friendship conversation more so than a breach of relationship in our opinion due to the timing. The group is all on board that should Austen and Taylor hook up, or if they have previously then it is abhorrent behavior (totes agree) but will the truth ever come out? will we get the whole story? Will JT stop forcing the issue constantly because he has a massive crush on Taylor even though she will literally never give you a shot pal? Who knows!

There's a Rumor Going 'Round... (RHOC Reunion, RHOSLC Full Recap) Oct 06, 2023

Show notes

Whats up Bro's?! It's reunion time in RHOC as the season is coming to an end. It starts with Tamra as Andy questions her about how things are with Jenn. As we've watched all season, Tamra made it her goal to go after Jenn and her relationship with Ryan. Andy calls into question whether or not she brought Jenn on just to provide herself a storyline, and Tamra claims her and Jenn weren't friends at the time when Jenn was asked on the show. Which is another lie... The group as a whole has way too much interest in the Ryan and Jenn situation, and while there are damning text messages, dick pics, red flags left and right, at the end of the day that is Jenn's choice to stay with Ryan and at some point everyone else needs to let Jenn live. Jenn finally stands up for herself to Tamra, and Tamra gets rattled quickly. The evidence against Tamra and her lies piles up as we get clips from the season of her talking smack about different women in the group, and Tamra does what she does best... She tries to spin zone it unsuccessfully. Then we move onto Heather and instead of feeling vindicated, Heather says she's sad that Tamra came back to the show and immediately took it upon herself to take Heather down. Of course Tamra denies it, and that becomes the theme for the episode. Tamra gets called out for multiple things she's claimed this season. But as Tamra does, she lies, claims that she didn't mean it that way, and tries to backpedal in order to make herself look better. It finishes up with Gina vs Shannon as Gina finally lets Shannon have it for the CPS comments. You would think Shannon would just apologize and listen to Gina but instead, Shannon tries to say a million different things and weaponizes her kind acts for Gina but the only thing she should be doing is listening and apologizing. Then were off to RHOSLC, and we have an Apres No Ski party via Lisa Barlow. She continues to get upset about Monica's comments about her being materialistic, and she seems to not understand where Monica is coming from. No ones saying you can't enjoy the finer things and yes, Lisa works hard and deserves to live her life. However, she doesn't understand that her comments are condescending to those less fortunate and it comes to a head at the party when she forces the conversation with Monica. Meredith pulls a Meredith when she brings up a damning rumor about Angie's husband. Apparently there are rumblings around the city about Shawn being unfaithful and allegedly sleeping with men around Salt Lake. Whitney tells Angie because she doesn't want to keep the rumor from her, and Angie (understandably) doesn't take it well. Things are heating up in Salt Lake and this season continues to deliver.

Tamra is a Loser but RHOSLC IS SO BACK! (Sandoval's Podcast, RHOC Full Recap, RHOSLC Full Recap) Oct 02, 2023

Show notes

What's up Bro's?? We are a little late with our episode, you can blame Steel's brother-in-law for getting married (jk Congrats Chris and Laura). But we are back with a full episode and boy is it a good one. We start out with a little Tom Sandoval talk because everyones least favorite villain announced he is releasing his own podcast... Then we finally get to the finale of OC and it ends as lackluster as we expected. Once again, the ladies pile on Heather in the beginning. Gina and Emily are both stuck on the fact that Heather called them losers (according to Tamra). However, at a lunch with Gina, Heather proves her innocence via a clip from Two T's where Teddi outs Tamra for calling the entire OC cast losers. Jenn and Ryan have a sit down to discuss Tamras comments in Mexico about potentially more cheating losers, and Ryan takes the approach of blaming Jenn for not trusting him and that he's tired of hearing about it. The episode ends with Gina's freak show party, where Heather goes from woman to woman and beats Tamra at her own game. While the crew was applauding Tamra for her "honesty" and "apologetic nature" Heather quickly pokes holes in all of Tamras B.S. by providing actual evidence and by having real conversations with her castmates. When the dust settles, Tamra looks like an idiot, the crew seemingly is on good terms with Heather once again, and thank god this season is over. Then we're off to RHOSLC and it keeps getting better and better. The ladies are still at the Trixie Motel and we have a nice little trust exercise to start the day off. Not before Angie makes her own tee shirt "All Trix No Trust" and continues to be an awkward addition and not doing herself any favors at all. Mary decides she isn't ready to trust the group and sits out, and some viewers are not taking her lack of participation well. Whitney ends up commandeering the trip and plans a Drag Make up competition for the ladies judged by Trixie. Lisa throws an absolute fit and starts crying refusing to do her make up and complaining that she flies in glam everywhere she goes and spends "60k" a year on it. She continues to label drop and talk about material things in front of Monica and Monica has had enough. They have it out on the sprinter van and nobody is safe. When they get to the bar its an all out war. Angie is fighting with Meredith, Whitney is fighting with Meredith, Monica is fighting with Lisa, Heather is on the sidelines and Mary is eating McDonald's. All in all, a great episode and god damn we're glad RHOSLC is back!

Now We Got Bad Blood (Swift-Kelce Update, Southern Charm Full Recap, RHONY Full Recap) Sep 27, 2023

Show notes

What's up Bros? What a time to be a Philadelphian, Birds are 3-0 and the Phil's just clinched a spot in the playoffs AGAIN. Up first on the docket, we have to address a Taylor Swift- Travis Kelce update. While Steel points out that the alleged Eagles fan has changed her colors quickly, overall the boys are on board for this relationship. Do you think its for the cameras or is love in the air?? Then were back with the crew in Charleston and we get introduced to JT who is not our cup of tea. Rod however seems like a solid dude and we see romance in the air for Olivia. Taylor is now working for a mixed drink company and attempting to sell Day Chaser to Leva after quitting her job to follow Shep around... The main focus of this episode is Austen's relationship with Taylor. Clearly JT is in love with Taylor and uses every opportunity with Shep present to bring up how weird Austen and Taylors relationship is. He highlights that Taylor slept at Austen's house and it becomes quite clear that JT is in love with her. Shep "trusts" Austen but after the 10th comment from JT things get a little murky bro... The group takes notice as well as Craig points out that its inappropriate and Madison says she thinks Austen's in love with her... Then were off to RHONY and back to the phone drama. While we still agree this was a dumb prank, Erin's response is way too much claiming this to be the most attacked she's ever felt in her life... Meanwhile Ubah simply cannot let it go and we get our first clunker episode of the season. The entire episode is focused around this and it leads to all of the ladies joining forces against Erin and comes to a head in the hot tub in an uncomfortable scene in which Erin gets ambushed and fully ganged up on. However... as the ladies are pointing out time and time again in which Erin has talked some shit, its pretty clear that Erin is a shit-stirrer. Up til this point she really hasn't gotten much shit in return so while a lot of this is warranted, the approach was way too much. Ubah and Erin eventually are able to squash everything. Oh yeah, Jessel keeps lists on her phone of everyone and how she should've responded to them and Brynn continues her pursuit of Jenna Lyons...

You Can Leave! (RHOSLC Full Recap, RHOC Full Recap) Sep 22, 2023

Show notes

What's up Bro's? We start the episode off with Shooter's new segment of current events and were talking Kelce+Swift. Then its off to RHOC where the ladies are finishing up their trip to Mexico. Jenn and Ryan are still a hot button issue as the ladies can't seem to think of anything else interesting to talk about. Meanwhile, Heather has become the punching bag of the group. While Heather does have her flaws, we see the group pick her apart for every little thing and its getting old in a hurry. All it looks like to us is that everyone is jealous of Heather and her wealth. The group visits a Shaman where intentions seem to be peace, love and understanding but when we get to dinner that all goes out the window. Heather is in the crosshairs again when Tamra forces drama on her with stupid allegations of things Heather has said and Tamra continues to be unwatchable. Heather leaves the table and hints at potentially being done with the show altogether due to the other women's treatment of her. Then we're back with the Salt Lake crew at the Trixie Motel. The rest of the group arrives to find Whitney and her unexpected guest Angie. Meredith does not care for it at all and instead of trying to not bring attention to herself, Angie decides she's gonna be defensive and rude to Meredith. To get ready for dinner, the group decides to go shopping and pick out outfits for one another. Whitney turns into a scientist getting married, Lisa looks like she's headed to Coachella and Angie dresses herself... They head to Carey Grants old house which is now a five star restaurant and Lisa gets upset about her clothing for the affair and mentions once again about the loss of her $60k ring. At dinner they play the most boring game of "interesting facts about yourself" followed up with a horrible idea, Warm and Fuzzy/ Cold and Prickly which sets the stage immediately for disaster. Heather doesn't trust Angie, Monica is sick of hearing about Lisa's ring and wants her to be more aware and Angie tops it all off with a toast to the Greek word meaning fake. Meredith has an all time blow up and gives us the gift of You Can Leave! Before sharing with Lisa that she may have some dirt on Angie's husband. Is that true? Or is this a pattern with Meredith like she did with Lisa last season..?

It's Me, Hi, I'm the Problem It's Me (Shannon Beador DUI, Southern Charm Full Recap, RHONY Full Recap) Sep 20, 2023

Show notes

Whats up Bros?! We are back with Southern Charm this week, but first we discuss the recent news out of the OC. Shannon Beador got a DUI and we have some thoughts. Shooter and Steel have slightly differing opinions on the matter but at the end of the day, the important thing is thank god nobody got hurt. Then we're back in Charleston with our charming crew. Craig and Paige are in the same exact spot in their relationship as Craig seems ready to take all the next steps and Paige seems to not be on the same page... (no pun intended). Shep gets home from a trip around the world as he is working on getting over his relationship with Taylor. Meanwhile, Taylor and Olivia have gotten very close over their break-ups. Madison shows off her new beautiful family, and we here at the BravBro's couldn't be happier for her and Hudson as it seems like Brett is genuinely a good dude. Things heat up at the wedding after-party when Taylor lets emotions get the best of her and she goes after Craig for his role in covering up Shep's shenanigans. While Taylor has every right to feel scorned, Craig isn't the one that cheated on you. The cherry on top of the entire episode is Austen's awkward interactions with Madison and Brett, but it appears as though Austen is going to take center stage with Taylor as rumors are swirling about the two of them... Then were back in ANGWILLA which we now know how to pronounce finally. The ladies continue to try and get to the bottom of Jessel's backstory and Erin and Sai speculate that maybe Jessel is overplaying the difficult upbringing a little in order to relate to Brynn and Sai. We're not here to say Jessel had it easy but in comparison to what we heard from the other two women, it does seem as though she may be reaching a little bit. The episode centers around a "prank war" via Ubah and Erin and ends with one of the dumber pranks and altercations we've seen on Bravo. A phone was taken, which is a dumb prank, and it escalates to the point of Erin and Ubah screaming at each other the next day. But love may be in the air as Brynn attempts to woo Jenna and we are here for it. While we don't actually think they'll be getting together, its amazing to see Jenna have some fun, joke around and come out of her shell a bit more. So buckle up Bro's we got lots to discuss!
