He also shares news about the new season of Summer House, and a fun Peacock surprise for the 15th anniversary of WWHL.

Dylan kicks off the new week with some boots-on-the-ground reporting (sort of) from the WWHL 15th Anniversary special. Then, he turns his attention to a very hectic episode of RHONJ, which is extremely watchable, even as the cast dynamic becomes more and more unsustainable. Lots to unpack: Jackie and Teresa’s bizarre symbiotic relationship takes yet another turn, Paul continues to make us uncomfortable, and Dolores is dunzo with Jackie.
