Jersey’s Last Dance Ft. Ben Mandelker Aug 06, 2024

Show notes

On today’s episode, Dylan returns from vacation to recap an epic RHONJ finale, and there’s no better person to help than Watch What Crappens co-host Ben Mandelker. After singing the praises of uncensored Bravo episodes, they dive into the season (series?) finale that has everyone talking. They discuss the reunion review invitation that almost ruined a friendship, Danielle’s frustrating family situation, and the confusing lack of follow-through on the Bo Dietl storyline this season. Then, they unpack Dolores’ last supper at Rails Steakhouse, where the only real change in the group dynamic is Jackie’s exile. To finish on a lighter note, they talk about why Ben still loves Below Deck, and how other similar shows have failed to measure up.

A Legal Bombshell Enters The Villa… Sort Of Jul 29, 2024

As we start a new week, Dylan puts the Olympics on mute for 45 minutes so he can break down all the latest Bravo updates.

Does a comp even exist? Then, he shares what we know about the upcoming Housewives dating show, and why it’s a smart move at this phase in the Peacock x Bravo relationship. Later, he goes long on Real Housewives of New Jersey, where Teresa finally shows her hand in the case of The People vs. Margaret Josephs. Did her season-long gambit to sink her rival pay off?

Dylan finishes the episode by recapping RHOC, in which Gina calls Jenn a squatter, Alexis steals Shannon’s trainer, and Sutton Stracke makes a perfect cameo.
