111. RHONJ on and off-screen; A podcast exclusive; B has another prediction Jun 22, 2024

Show notes

So much to discuss about Real Housewives of New Jersey this week - on and off screen. First, a tangent about Dolores' boyfriend Paulie's 14 year separation in which he still isn't divorced. This week's episode was classic Housewives and we loved it. Rumors are swirling that Carl and Danielle from Summer House are dating - we'll share what we know. We do have an exclusive on an upcoming RHONJ scene - and more bad news on Teresa, her husband Luis, and Vinivia, a company they are associated with. And last but not least, B has another prediction.

110. Kyle and Amanda: What we're hearing; Exclusive on Bravo's new show; Jackie's "pick me girl" energy; RHOA filming bombshell Jun 15, 2024

Show notes

Lots of smoke around Kyle and Amanda and their marriage this week. Is there fire? Why didn't Amanda go to Italy with Kyle for Andrea's wedding? We'll tell you what we're hearing plus more on the history of their relationship and how that could weigh into today's situation. Thoughts on the Summer House reunion, and where things could be headed for this summer's filming of Summer House. We've got an exclusive about the cast and filming of Bravo's new show, Making it Manhattan. Luis Ruelas, husband of Teresa from RHONJ is tied to another business scandal. We looked into the company at the center of the scandal and found some pretty interesting imo. Teresa launched her pod this week - and we're in shock about what she said about her past. On RHONJ, Jackie gives the ultimate "pick me girl" energy and we. are. over. it. We're hearing all kinds of wild rumors about Real Housewives of Atlanta filming - and we're reserving judgement for one very specific reason.

109. Would love a reunion; The Valley Exclusive; Dubai's giving fun, fashion and light shade Jun 08, 2024

Show notes

We start out with a tangent about college hookups, going right into why Amanda is mad at Bravo. We need a reunion on the Valley! Here's why. We have an exclusive about Britney and Jax's house. B is vindicated now that Andy Cohen and People Magazine confirmed that there will be no RHONJ reunion. We've got some tea about where Jersey could possibly go next. And we are loving Real Housewives of Dubai. It's giving fashion, fun and the light housewife shade we all are craving. Our thoughts on the new housewife, Taleen, and the cast in general.

108. Jax is Jaxxing;VPR EXCLUSIVE; A Summer House Theory Jun 01, 2024

Show notes

Who's surprised that Jax is out there dating Only Fans models? Not us. B has some exclusive Vanderpump Rules tea. Who do we think the VPR couple who temporarily rekindled was? We think there are some clues in the Peacock extended version. And our thoughts on the final installment of the VPR reunion. We feel like we got some clarity. Summer House: B has a theory on why Amanda is seemingly on Carl's side. And we have another theory about why Kyle called Craig a liar on WWHL. We have some exclusive RHONJ cast updates. And why is Teresa having lunch with the hairdresser who "exposed" her for allegedly having an affair when Joe was in prison a few years ago? We smell a setup and hope Danielle does too.

107. Atlanta Exclusive; A Housewife's tie to the Drake vs Kendrick battle; Craig and Austen's Spat May 25, 2024

Show notes

The Atlanta cast is finally set. Why is Sheree out? And yet again, all roads lead to Bravo as we tie a Housewife to the Drake/Kendrick Lamar battle. Kim Z is clickbaiting again. We've got some insider tea on the new "Making it in Manhattan" show. Carl and Lindsay - luggagegate and whose side we're on. Kyle's fight with Ciara and Paige - we have slightly differing opinions on the situation but both agree he's acting like a man baby about it. We have an update on the Naomie Olindo (formerly of Southern Charm) lawsuit - it's still not over, and it's not looking great for Naomie. B's got some insider info on Austen and Craig's spat.

106. We apologize; What (else) we're watching tangent; We pledge allegiance to gossip; Our real opinion on Lala vs Katie May 18, 2024

Show notes

First, a genuine apology to Jen Armstrong, formerly of RHOC and to Jen Pedranti, currently on RHOC. We mixed up last names, and when we meant to refer to Jen Pedranti, we accidentally called her Jen Armstrong. No shade was meant. But just because we messed up Jen P's name, doesn't mean we're not going to share the latest on her fiance's involvement in the Ohtani theft/gambling scandal. @bravoandcocktails_ Instagram has been in the news - thanks to a pic we got from a Cocktailer that was then shared and credited to the B&C IG by TMZ - of Dorit and PK at dinner shortly after their separation announcement. We have a hot take on Jenn Fessler's convo with Teresa. B's question for Amanda - if *this one thing* changed about John Fuda, would we all have a different opinion about him? The VPR reunion aired, and we've got different opinions about the Lala vs. Katie convo.

Cocktailers, thank you for listening to Cocktails and Gossip! We might change our minds about shows and Bravolebs on the daily, but you know what we don't change our minds about? Gossip.

105. Breaking news; All roads lead to Bravo, VPR Finale May 11, 2024

Show notes

We've got two different sets of breaking news this week. We start out with the story about Ryan Boyajian, fiance to Jen Armstrong of the Real Housewives of Orange County. He has been named as an associate to the bookie in the gambling and theft case of Shohei Ohtani, the LA Dodger, and his interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara, who has been accused of stealing more than $16 million from Ohtani and wiring the money for his gambling to Ryan Boyajian. What did Tamra Judge say about this? You'll hear it here. Jersey is leaving us feeling a little dirty, now that we know about what's been going on behind the scenes (allegedly) with members of the RHONJ cast paying and giving gifts to fan accounts in return for the fan accounts trashing their cast rivals. Vanderpump Rules' season finale felt a little like a series finale. But we know it's not - the ratings are just too good to end the show. Did production give Sandoval a redemption arc? We have differing opinions. What should Lala do next? And, as we're discussing a poll that B put up on @bravoandcocktails_ , we get some breaking news from Dorit and PK.

104. Another week, another wifi WTF; No one is innocent on The Valley; Greyrocking May 04, 2024

Show notes

What happened to episode 103? And today, we had a whole different WTF... Michelle and Jesse from the Valley have both gone public with new love interests. We've got a lot of info on Jesse's new gf – and she has a fascinating back story that we get into. We disagree about Jax's real motivations for telling Brittany he doesn't want a child, but we agree that everyone's scapegoating on Kristen and she's getting all the blame for something most of the folks on The Valley are doing too. Did you guys catch the weird two refrigerator thing in Kristen's apartment? Ariana is playing chess and Brock is playing checkers - more on what greyrocking is. VPR is pausing production this summer - here's why (according to our sources) and who is spiraling?

102. Manic Bravo Monday; Is Kristen Doute an empath? Lol. Theory: Why Todd filed for divorce. B's prediction about Scheana Apr 20, 2024

Show notes

Monday was one of the wildest days in the Bravoverse that we can remember. Firings, divorce news, pregnancy announcements. Is Nneka actually not coming back to Potomac? B has an Atlanta casting update. The Valley is sending us. We love it. Kristen is an empath? Lol. We have the tea on who the rumored director that Michelle Lally was hanging out with. We have a lot more info on Raquel Chevremont, the new RHONY Reboot cast member. And of course, Cocktailers knew there was trouble in paradise for Alexia and Todd's marriage. Is it really all that shocking that he filed for divorce? Or could that have been a strategic move? James and Ally have an emotional chat - we've got a unique viewpoint about that chat. And would anyone, even Schwartz buy a house with Tom Sandoval? B's got a prediction about Scheana and Brock's marriage...

We read the transcript of her interview on Rachel's Gone Rogue - is she a victim of Tom Shwartz's gaslighting? Were they actually dating last summer? Larry's thoughts on the Katie/Tori/Schwartz love triangle. What is actually going on with this Lala/Ariana feud? We have theories. What show does Larry think is Must-See-TV? Thoughts on Jax and Brittany - are they broken up for good? Summer House: We discuss Danielle and Paige; Why we think Paige is setting a great example for people (not just women) in relationships everywhere; Our real opinions on the Summer House newbies; What's going on with Kyle and Amanda?
