Welcome to another Toxic Tuesday episode! In this episode, I am discussing the latest reali(tea) topics from Ace and Chelley, actually not being done to Mariah the Scientist and Young Thug’s surprise engagement, when I tell you no one was moved, I mean it to Dr. Wendy Osefo and Eddie Osefo trial updates. In addition, I finally share my thoughts on the exhaustion from the RHOSLC Greece trip. The best thing, perhaps, to come from the trip is Angie clocking Brittani left and right. After RHOSLC,...

2025/12/16

Welcome to another Toxic Tuesday! In this episode, I am discussing the latest divorce news, this time involving Bronwyn Newport and Todd, who are separating after 9 years. In other splitsville news, Love Island USA’s Ace and Chelley have also called it quits. On a scale of 1 to 5 for splits, I am at a negative one, meaning I am NOT shocked. Nothing moved me or shocked me. I also share my thoughts on Below Deck Mediterranean, which has been really good. After some brief reali(tea) topics, I di...

2025/12/12

In honor of Sammi (Sweetheart) recently getting married and Ronnie NOT being in attendance, which is only appropriate, let’s do a deep dive on the iconic series that competed with other reality shows on Jerzday nights and would soon become a pop culture phenomenon, from tanned bodies to famous lingo like “DTF.” Part 1 will explore the origins of Jersey Shore, from how the cast was selected to where everyone was from and their backgrounds, to even their salaries. In part 2, I will deep dive in...

2025/12/09

Welcome to the pod and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, I am discussing the latest reali(tea) topics from recent revelations regarding Kandi and Todd’s marriage. In a PEOPLE Exclusive, a source close to Kandi said she found out he was talking to other women and did not like it. In other topics, Vanderpump Villa’s Marciano is suing SLOMV Demi for defamation, and I 100% support that because Demi is a liar. After the reali(tea) topics, I talk about the RHOBH premiere...

Welcome to the pod and another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, we cover some Thanksgiving headlines: Ray J getting arrested on the holiday, ongoing SLOMV drama between Demi and Jessi via Fruity Pebbles gate, and Todd Tucker requesting full custody of his and Kandi's two children while also questioning the prenup he signed two days before the wedding. Besides more reali(tea) topics, I also discuss RHOP and the Married to Medicine premiere, which I honestly think was a refreshing epi...

Welcome to the pod, and welcome to another episode of “What’s the Reality” on What the Reality. In part one of The Hills deep dive, I did a recap on every season of the hit reality show to really prep for part 2 and an analysis of everything fake and staged in the show. From Lauren Conrad’s childhood friend, Jen Bunney, coming forward about her affair with Brody in season 2 being fake, to the Paris dress moment, where Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port had to track down a designer for a new dress...

Welcome to the pod, and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. This episode of Toxic Tuesday was packed with Housewives' headlines. From RHOA's Porsha Williams' run-in with the FBI after a commercial flight from Las Vegas to Atlanta, to Kandi Burruss announcing her separation from Todd Tucker, not to mention Jen Shah's prison release just in time for the holiday. I genuinely think the Housewives are the gifts that keep on giving. I couldn't keep up with all the headlines from last week....

Welcome to the pod! In this Toxic Tuesday episode, there are endless updates from Bravocon. From the Osefos making an appearance to the Grand Dame’s standing ovation, tune into all of the biggest updates from Bravocon. I also talk about some reali(tea) topics, which include Mary Cosby’s son landing himself back in prison and my initial thoughts on the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. After that, I do a recap of ‘RHOP’ and Stacey Rusch being a little messy and very inauthentic in my opinion. ...

2025/11/14

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the pod! One of the very first reality shows I got hooked on followed LC (Lauren Conrad) and Heidi Montag on their career journeys and friendship in The Hills, a spin-off of MTV’s Laguna Beach, which mostly followed LC and Kristin Cavallari. Once The Hills graced our screens in May 2006, I was honestly a six-year-old and didn’t thoroughly enjoy The Hills until reruns would air during summer break while in junior high on MTV. In part one, I deep-dive into seasons 1...

Welcome to the pod, and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, we are diving into everything toxic with Huda Mustafa and her terrible fan base. I haven't seen a toxic reality TV fan base this toxic in a while. In other reality news, Vanderpump Rules has officially dropped a trailer for the new cast, and I will say this is a quirky group of people. I also talk about Kayla Nicole's iconic Halloween costume in honor of Toni Braxton and getting her lick back from Taylor Swi...

Welcome to the pod! And welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, I'm delivering another update on the Osefos, and apparently, Wendy is going to let Eddie take the fall so the legal matters remain separate. I also talk about my love for Netflix's "Nobody Wants This" and how I need to start listening to my recommendations more often. Also, we get into a deep dive of the latest episode of RHOP, and my girl Jassi is back. TIMESTAMPS: Reali(tea) topics: 8:55 RHOP R...

Welcome to the pod and another Toxic Tuesday! No video podcast since my podcast streaming platform was down :( Before recapping RHOP and saying goodbye to a dreadful RHOM season, I get into some reali(tea) topics. From Denise Richards' ex-husband Aaron Phypers arrest to Dr. Wendy Osefo finally speaking out and thanking everyone for their support regarding the insurance fraud claims, also Next Gen NYC's Ariana and Hudson have officially split up -- somehow I don't believe that they will stay b...

Welcome to Toxic Tuesday, and this Tuesday is different. Clearly, every Tuesday is toxic, but today, I'm doing a full breakdown of the most recent news that has captivated my entire timeline on Twitter and TikTok: the news that Dr. Wendy Osefo and Happy Eddie are insurance fraudsters. After a deep dive into the Osefos of it all, I discuss some reali(tea) TV covering the latest episodes of RHOSLC, RHOM reunion, and RHOP, which was really difficult to watch after all of the Wendy news.&nb...

2025/10/10

In honor of RHOP's epic season 10 return, we're exploring one of the biggest mysteries of friendship fallout: Candiace Dillard Bassett and Monique Samuels. Their friendship fell apart due to hearsay, and Monique’s real anger stemmed from Gizelle and Robyn—two women, I believe, who really escalated the drama and whom Monique probably didn’t want to confront because everyone knows Gizelle is the Kyle Richards of RHOP. In part one, I discuss their friendship dynamic with each other, the other la...

I don’t know who’s more toxic, the people making a spectacle of what Ayesha Curry said on "Call Her Daddy" podcast, or Taylor Swift thinking that was an album ready to be heard by the masses? In other reali(tea) topics, we are diving more into Nicole Kidman and the unexpected breakup of the century, the Love Island Games winners, which I was very disappointed by, and one of my favorite couples getting engaged: Ryan Destiny an...

Welcome to the pod and welcome to another TOXIC TUESDAY! I can’t decide who’s more toxic: Scheana Shay and her complete downfall on Bravo, or Lala Kent, soft-launching her PR relationship with Tom Schwartz, further securing her place in “The Valley.” I hope Scheana is okay. As for Reali(tea) topics, some major breaking news: Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have separated after nearly 20 years together. In other news, Selena Gomez’s gorgeous wedding dresses — both Ralph Lauren and Bad Bunn...
