    RHOSLC Finale Was A Greek Tragedy! Jan 07, 2026
    Show notes

    In this episode, I’m breaking down The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Greek tragedy finale – and yes, this play was very much about them. We get into Meredith’s checked-out energy, Heather’s sloshed read of the group, Bronwyn’s “concern” that felt more like a setup, and why I think Meredith should be demoted while Britney has earned her snowflake.


    I also talk about Mary being the only one willing to call out the bullshit in real time, why Lisa and Meredith walking away actually made sense, and what this all might mean heading into the reunion.


    I also touch on the rumor about a cast member’s alleged alcohol scare 👀, why Heather might want to watch her back next season, and why some of these women are playing a very dirty game with each other’s vulnerabilities.


    Plus, I share updates on the podcast:

    • Details on my upcoming deep dive into Amanda Francis and the online course “Money Queen” world
    • The launch of “Georgio Says: Anonymous, Please” – my new Sunday advice episode where I anonymously respond to your real-life situations


    If you’re listening on audio, please leave a 5-star rating – it really helps the show. If you’re watching on YouTube, hit all the buttons so this episode finds the Bravo fans who need to hear it.

    RHOBH Reality Check, 2025 Reflections & Why 2026 Is About the Pivot Dec 29, 2025
    Show notes

    In today’s episode, I’m catching up with you after the holidays and getting real about why this Christmas felt different, what 2025 taught me during my first full year doing this full-time, and why “pivot” is the word I’m taking into 2026.


    I talk about burnout, people-pleasing, stepping back from social media, and why sometimes the universe reroutes you instead of stopping you. I also break down moments from The Kardashians finale that unexpectedly resonated with me, including resilience, family dynamics, and learning when to try again — just differently.


    Then we jump into Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, where I unpack why certain dynamics aren’t landing this season, my honest take on Boz’s corporate/producer energy, the Dorit–Amanda lunch moment that didn’t math, Kyle and Morgan still dancing around the truth, and why the show may be overdue for a cast shake-up.


    I wrap things up with some quick Bravo thoughts, a look ahead to what’s coming in 2026, and an idea I’ve been sitting with about showing up more vulnerably with you all — because this community deserves it.

    I am Concerned for Meredith Marks | RHOSLC My Big Fat Greek Mother's Day Recap Dec 17, 2025
    Show notes

    We’re still in Greece (Santorini) and this episode left me genuinely concerned about Meredith Marks. In Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 14 “My Big Fat Greek Mother’s Day,” the women split into groups, but Meredith’s energy is off. Between the TikTok trigger, the Mother’s Day phone call with Brooks, Lisa Barlow riding hard for her, and Meredith basically clocking out mid-excursion, something isn’t right in the water.


    Let me know in the comments: Is Meredith going through something serious, or am I seeing it differently?

    Show notes

    It’s Friday, December 12, and Georgio Says is back with a jam-packed episode covering major Housewives news and a full breakdown of RHOBH “Bear It All.” Plus—quick DMV fam update: Pasta Rituals is popping up at Union Kitchen on Barracks Row with free samples during happy hour and 20% off in-store.


    First, we get into the big headline: Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’s Bronwyn Newport confirms she and Todd Bradley have separated, and the rumor mill is already spinning about whether there’s a prenup and what this means heading into the RHOSLC reunion.


    Then we dive deep into Real Housewives of Beverly Hills with my recap of Episode 2 “Bearing It All,” including:

    • Rachel Zoe understanding the assignment (and why this season already feels smoother)
    • Kyle finally admitting the truth about falling hard for someone (yes, that storyline) and why it reportedly ended
    • The shifting public narrative around Mauricio, and why the timeline/optics keep getting messier
    • Dorit & PK: what’s really breaking her down, and why Kyle’s “middle ground” approach is driving me nuts
    • The nude sip-and-paint party chaos (because Beverly Hills will always Beverly Hills)
    • Meeting new Housewife Amanda—Kyle’s former home buyer—plus her “manifesting money” vibe and why she might stir up the entire cast

    Show notes

    Georgio Says is BACK. It’s Christmas season, the mics are on again, and we are diving straight into the mess: Jen Shah’s release, Wendy & Eddie’s legal drama, Angel eviction rumors, and the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City cast touching down in Greece.


    In this episode, I explain where I’ve been, why there’s been a gap in the podcast feed, and what I’ve been quietly building with my partner Jeff - our new frozen ravioli brand, Pasta Rituals. I walk you through how launching a food business has pulled focus, and how that inspired me to expand the podcast beyond just Bravo while still keeping all the Housewives chaos you love.

    RHOP Season 10 Premiere | Stacey Rusch Caught in LIES!? Oct 06, 2025
    Show notes

    I’m back from a “this incline is illegal” Shenandoah hike and straight into my villain era, because whew—there’s a lot to say.


    We dive into the RHOP Season 10 premiere: Karen’s early release tease, Stacey’s TJ truth (or not), Ashley’s “Second Bloom,” the new girls Tia & Angel, and why that Kay vs. Wendy gripe ain’t gripping. Then we hit Miami’s reunion—Julia’s bombshell, Adriana’s edit, and the Marisol/Larsa machine—plus OC’s spring fling chaos: Tamra’s boiling point, Emily’s honesty, Heather’s loyalty math, and Gretchen dusting off Jeff Timmons like it’s 2010.

    RHOSLC - Dismiss! Dismiss! Dismiss! Lisa Barlows CHAOTIC Lunch! Oct 01, 2025
    Show notes

    It’s a new month and a fresh episode of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City dropped. I kick things off by clarifying yesterday’s Bronwyn post (relax!!) and why the sealed-case vs. “drag Lisa over civil suits” energy feels hypocritical to ME.


    Then we dive into episode 3 titled "Dismissed". Angie’s sweet moment with her dad, Heather’s empty-nester paint swatches, Bronwyn’s house-of-chaos with Todd giving major ick, and Lisa rolling into lunch with full-on poster boards to “dismiss, dismiss, dismiss.” Whitney’s napkin toss, Meredith’s non-defense defense, and a table of people screaming about five different topics at once—peak RHOSLC! We Need To Talk About This!

    RHOSLC Hypocrisy Check | RHOC Split Trips with Bravo Producer James Lee Sep 30, 2025
    Show notes

    Kicking off with Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, I call out the double standard of dragging Lisa Barlow over civil suits while a cast mate’s sealed alleged criminal case can’t be discussed—what we know, what we don’t, and why the pile-on feels lazy. Then I stitch in my conversation with James to break down Orange County’s split trips: Tamra’s Temecula olive branches (strategy or sincerity?), Shannon’s stop-start trust, Heather’s Beverly Hills night complete with a pop-up paparazzo, Gretchen’s dusty studio allegations, and Gina’s growing confidence. It’s where both seasons actually are right now—messy, revealing, and setting the stage for Amsterdam and a spicy reunion.

    Bill Alverson Unplugged: Coach Charming, Insatiable, and A Sorority Mom's Guide To Rush Sep 25, 2025
    Show notes

    I have a conversation with Bill Alverson, a pageant and rush coach, criminal/divorce attorney, and the inspiration behind Netflix’s Insatiable - to talk about Lifetime’s A Sorority Mom’s Guide to Rush and everything that makes it tick. Bill shares how TikTok led producers to his 30+ years of coaching, why he insists moms are present for safety and transparency, and how his legal work shaped his stance on believing women while guarding against weaponized accusations—no matter the gender or relationship. We get real about being openly gay in small-town Alabama, “passive activism,” family dynamics around coming out, and why visibility at home matters. He breaks down the show’s authenticity (no contrived drama), the ethics of coaching, body image pitfalls (and how to dress for your body), reading the room, basic etiquette (say thank you!), and real progress in Greek life for women of color and LGBTQ+ students. We also dive into the wild ride from Coach Charming to Insatiable, how his life split into two characters on screen, and what he wants next. Stream A Sorority Mom’s Guide to Rush on the Lifetime app or MyLifetime.com
