Wackadoodle Time

Amy takes Ellen on a deep dive through the parents of our beloved Bravolebrities, getting into the good, the questionable, and the ones who screw up their bloodline for generations. They also discuss episode one of the Summer House reunion, because how could you not?

Author Jess Gutierrez visits the pod to marvel at Real Housewives of Rhode Island and celebrate Rachel Zoe’s undeniable impact on millennial women. Then Jess and Ellen brainstorm a Real Housewives of Arkansas and spend a good amount of time alienating Amy while talking about a place called Silver Dollar City.

Future Ladies of London Friend Of Ryan O’Connor returns to the pod, fascinator in tow, to break down this magical season. Ryan and Ellen also share their concerns about the rumored Summer House: Ozarks spinoff, and brace yourself: the men on The Valley are bad.

It’s time for a vacation from Summer House, so Amy takes Ellen on a trip back through time to Amsterdam with Season 5 of RHOBH. Violence! Addiction! Codependency! Ellen learns about a new trauma response, and Amy is shaken to her core by Kyle’s strategic employment of a bold red lip.

Ellen and Amy try and fail to talk about anything but Summer House, getting partial credit for finding the parallels between our Hamptons crew and the new FLDS doc series on Netflix. They go on to beg Carl to open a SoftBar in LA, then speculate on the psychological makeup of someone who sends pics to Deuxmoi. A note to the listener: this ep was recorded before the filming of the leakiest reunion of all time!

Actor/legend Nicole Sullivan stops by the pod to deliver a bounty of hot takes, as well as a throwback RHOA conspiracy theory that just makes good old fashioned sense. Problematic faves, surprising hate watches, our desire to see all divorced housewives shacking up with hot studs - no topic is safe.

Actor Ian Littleworth has a lot to get off his chest with regards to the Summer House situation, and just like with Scandoval, it may ruin the show. He also makes a case for a relationship ban on the show, compares Season 11 of VPR to an Arthur Miller play, and pitches a diabolical spin-off for Kyle and Schwartz. Also, Amy owes the Wirkus twins an apology for being unfamiliar with their game.

Amy and Ellen put out an emergency call to the group chat to discuss the messy Summer House love triangle heard 'round the Bravo-verse. Leila Cohan and Lauren Adams join us in the situation room to break it down from every angle. Paige and Hannah called a PI?! Will Ciara end up with Michael B. Jordan?! Oh, and CARL'S A MESS!!!
