Rather Be Rotting

Lil and Madelyn

Rather Be Rotting is the ultimate escape for pop culture obsessives and reality TV junkies. Hosted by two sisters who’d always rather be rotting on the couch, this show is a love letter to Bravo marathons, niche celebrity drama, and the kind of useless-but-essential pop culture knowledge that clogs their brains (and now, your ears). Whether they’re deep-diving into reality TV chaos or spiraling over a red carpet moment, these two are here to talk about everything that doesn"t matter—but means

Send us Fan Mail Madelyn is in New Jersey, and the gals forgot to discuss Ladies of London! They have a good excuse - the Summer House scandal is taking up too much room in their brains. Justice for Ciara! Lil finds solace in the return of crazy Kristen on the Valley now that they're both moms. They also break down the newest franchise, Real Housewives of Rhode Island (lil tells us who is who) and briefly touch on Beverly Hills before the real reason for the season: 90 Day Fiance Before the 9...

Send us Fan Mail The gals are back this week chatting about the upcoming movie The Drama and whether or not the twist (that we've spoiled for ourselves, but not for you) makes us want to see it in theaters and thoughts on the announcement of the return of The Real Housewives of New Jersey. They also get into the oddness of the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the magic of Ladies of London, and all the hyperventilating on 90 Day Fiance Before the 90 Days. All this plus t...

And of course they dish on the reunion of The Real Housewives of Potomac, catch up on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, recap thoughts on The Traitors, and the shit (literally) that's happening on 90 Day Fiance Befo...
