Goodbye, Kyle (with Dylan Hafer)

Andy"s Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast ·

2024/06/18

Sarah is currently on a plane of existence as far yet unknown to Neil deGrasse Tyson - she’s saying hi to George Clooney a la Gravity, good to almost meet you Jlo in that weird new AI robot thing, and oh look, the moon and stars above also known as a world where Summer House plays 24/7. After recording a deep dive in her mind, she decides to also take to the mic, with her Bravoholic bestie, Dylan Hafer (director of social for entertainment at Betches Media, host of the pod Mention It All, and

2024/06/15

Sarah watches RHONJ and immediately reverts to child's pose (Namaste? Go Away). She realizes the tense energy from NJ has carried through IRL, and realizes the best way to cool down the heat is the very chill Sweet Baby Dyl, Dylan Hafer (director of social for entertainment at Betches Media, host of the pod Mention It All, and creator of @BravoByBetches). They decamp to the cloffice, and immediately mention it all: escalating Bravoleb boundary-crossing seemingly without production or network

Summer, summer, summerrrtiiiiime. Sarah watches the Summer House reunion's grand finale (completely unacceptable it wasn't at least 17 eps), and runs to send production a jackhole of the day award for some of the narrative expressed. And, ya know, some good stuff. She mentions it all: a confoundingly consistent male gaze over women on Summer House (and VPR) that takes the majority-women audience for granted (#representationmatters when actually formulating the Qs asked, as well as what's

Her dream team assembles on Zoom, bts tea in hand: Kate Aurthur (Variety's editor-at-large) and Louis Staples (writer and Housewives anthropologist). They stretch their writer/analysis muscles, tell Aviva's ghostwriter she's not needed, and deep dive into all things VPR, The Valley, and Summer House. It's a true mention it all: inside scoop following

A Simple Plan: Part 2 (with Rafi D'Angelo)

2024/06/08

Sarah watches the OC trailer and immediately books an Uber Pool to the moon (what better location to dance with franchise stars, especially with BravoCon 2024's location confirmed as "your heart"). Deflated a bit by some of the stressors in Franklin Lakes, she takes a Via back to earth, thankful for a *two-hour* double episode with one of her absolute fave Bravoholic voices: writer Rafi D'Angelo (overpricedvodka.com).

Turning the Paige on West: Part 1 of the Summer House...

Andy"s Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast ·

2024/06/07

Sarah watches part 1 of the Summer House reunion, and runs to the cloffice to record a triage-style ep with such haste that she nearly falls over the desk. Undeterred by such small inconveniences, she focuses on the big picture: shocking new details about West and Ciara's post-filming situationship, petty puppetry (who is Geppetto in West's narrative? the audience?), good guy cosplay, Paige DeSorbo, girl's girl, Danielle's part time gig as the president and CEO of leaking ish,

RHONJ: Classy, Boujie, Ratchet

Andy"s Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast ·

2024/06/04

Sarah hears about Frank's proposal to Dolo, and immediate takes a Benadryl (random mall diamonds and wind up toys? This is a crisis). Luckily, inspiration comes in many forms, and this week's NJ is no exception. She unpacks some nuanced forms of escapism when it comes to NJ's family matters, production's season goals (survival?), Jackie's promise ring of 'truth' to Teresa and Jen, Melissa and Danielle’s convo about family and possible regret, and Teresa's anger delay

Keeping Score: A RHONJ Deep Dive

Andy"s Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast ·

2024/06/02

Sarah volunteers to join Dolo's charity softball league (listen, if "Dr." Sara can use a title she doesn't deserve, then Sarah is a neurosurgeon). Undeterred after Dolo demures, she hits a home run (or at least day dreams about a certain RHONJ son and, ahem, second base), with a RHONJ deep dive catch-up: an evolving opinion on book gate, the importance of validating grief, Danielle's family fracture, the impact of Tre vs. Joe and Melissa for the kids, Rachel and Fessler's

Sarah takes a silent drive with Carl from the Summer House.

So Sarah power walks back to the cloff, where she unpacks the ups, downs, and yes, LOLs from tonight's intense finale ep, Carl's repositioning of his "chic c'est la vie" sit down with Linds, some Ariana-coded energy in Lindsay's girl code scene, a

Lord, lord, lord. Sarah watches the Vanderpump Rules reunion P3, and finds a safe space in which to unpack what she allegedly witnessed (the cloffice, natch). She deep dives her triage-style thoughts: Lala and Scheana's spiritual 1099, the impasse of breaking the fourth wall vs. displaying any interest in remaining friends, Lala Kent, lean, mean, fighting machine, the finale gotcha moment that landed with a thud, a lack of respect for Ariana's upset, and how the show moves forward after

Sarah watches part 2 of the Pump Rules reunion, and listens to latest update cast pods, and realizes, dear lord, for an episode that wasn't great, there's still some ish to say. So she discusses Kristen and Schwartz' latest feels about Jo (and a SATC-era book someone should Prime her, stat), Lala's version - and vision - of "truth" on and off TV, Scheana's upset about an audience/Ariana perspective that challenges her record of loyalty, and the show's inconsistent
