Andy's Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast

Sarah's back from her European adventure, and she arrives back to the office to a deluge of texts. Oh wait, that's just a short novel between Kyle and Dorit from P1 of the BH reunion. So after she unpacks her baggage - emotional and otherwise - Sarah deep dives P1 of the Beverly Hills reunion, from whether or not Kyle's night-before text to Dorit was strategic, Dorit's burst bubble about education in college vs. real life, the difficulty in not seeing other aspects of AnneMarie's personal life, and Kyle's friendship contracts when it comes to battles with Kathy. Sarah spent a day in Amsterdam, so she knows how to pronounce AnneMarie (she just needs to figure out how to say "nurse anesthesiologist" in Dutch) - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 515!

As Sarah continues her European adventure, she throws a coin in the Trevi Fountain in Rome, hoping for an AG classic sassafrass convo with one of her Bravoholic friends. Dreams do come true, because that coin jumped right into the cloffice for a sit down kiki with acclaimed artiste, and the man/myth/legend behind DrunkDrawn, Ryan Casey. They discuss Ryan's decade+ history with WWHL, reactions from Housewives in response to his intentionally distorted art, celebrating all things Bravoleb, lessons learned about a history of Black women having had their bodies weaponized stemming from a convo with Annemarie, reactions to the Beverly Hills trailer (and outfits!), and a round-the world status check on Salt Lake, BH, and more (obvs...Shan). This convo is a masterpiece, just like Ryan's art - and it's Andy's Girls, Episode 514!

Sarah takes in a night of theatre (watching old eps of Salt Lake when Jen Shah proclaimed her innocence), followed by a performance that has stayed with her ever since, featuring today's guest co-host. After watching and bawling during "The White Chip," she invites its star, actor Joe Tapper, over to the cloffice, for a hilling journey. They discuss how Joe's journey with sobriety influenced his decision to take on a play about alcohol addition, a fluency and connection between Housewives fans which can often bridge a gap around how to broach otherwise delicate convos, the ways Housewives/Vanderpump Rules/Summer House portray the complicated narrative around addiction and recovery, the complicated comms on Beverly Hills around Kyle's decision to stop drinking (and her own dynamics around Kim's alcoholism), Carl and Lala's journeys with sobriety, and more. Joe's technically been on AG before after a delightful prior cameo with his wife, and Sarah's college pal, Annaleigh Ashford, and thank goodness for a retur

Sarah's leaving on a jet plane, and no it's not Sutton's PJ. But it should be! Before embarking on her European adventure, and inspired by the RHOBH finale, she opens the cloffice door to one of her fave Bravoholic pals, Alison Leiby (comedian, writer, and cohost of the podcast "Ruined"). After a brief downward spiral about geopolitics and Verizon Wireless, they discuss a white party like no other (and why this year especially should've been at Kyle and Mo's humble abode), what Kyle may have been referencing with the straw that broke that camel's back (humping, as it were), Sandoval's continued comms strategy to blame his cast members for his bad rep, and a disconcerting observation of James' "rock bottom." Sarah speaks French en peu, but she is definitely fluent in sass - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 512!

Sarah fled NYC to Paris like Mauricio whenever he hears someone in a far-flung land whisper, "The Agency." And yet, here we stand, with a new ep, recorded mere moments after the Beverly Hills finale aired. Mademoiselle Galli (née Madame, she is spiritually mid-twenties plus after all) is joined by Madame Bravo Bravo Ducking Bravo, Sarah's Bravoholic pal, fellow member of the content creator Lady Gang, and host of the new pod High & Low. They settle into a Zoom marriage counseling session, to discuss what the eff went wrong with Kyle and Mo like it's a Law and Order autopsy of the heart (the romance cartoon version). The highs, lows, BBDB seeing Erika on-screen and saying hell no's, Kyle's reveal about an inciting incident during her final confessional, Sutton's vulnerable conversation with Porter about identity and acceptance, Dorit and PK's tense stalemate, and why on earth we didn't see Crystal's mom. And Annemarie was there, which is nice. Beverly Hills has a reunion ahead, much like a croissant Sarah is a

Tom Sandoval broke the Internet (or at least the Bravoverse and select New York Times Magazine subscribers, natch). After reading the epic and honestly unbelievable impeccable take down of Tom "I am also mid twenties plus" Sandoval in the Grey Lady, Sarah realizes the best way to unpack what on earth she just read is one of her fave content creators and hosts, The Talk of Shame's Kiki Monique (host, Reality Checked on Radio Andy, Pop Crime on Betches Media, and Bagel Friday queen). They discuss the impact and intent behind Sandoval's wild connection of his internet fame with OJ Simpson and George Floyd, Bravo's PR silence in real time vs. their triage-level troubleshooting as the interview process veered left, right, up and down (anything but centered, tbh), the ultimate reveal of how Tom views himself, and his difficulty in living a life outside of reality TV, and more. Sarah has a full Reading Rainbow narration of the article up on Patreon, and she's patiently waiting for a Nobel - it's Andy's Girls, Episod

The journey continues, as Sarah and Louis Peitzman (Housewives writer and culture commentator) pick up where they left off. Over the course of a rollicking two part spectacular, they discuss why the timeline over Kyle and Mauricio's separation is key to understanding a fuller picture of their on-and surely off-camera behavior, Mo's bewildering absence from the reunion (and his marriage), whether Annemarie is truly 'one and done,' the current stalemate over RHUGT: Morocco (and concern over how the Bravo community have been punitive in their upset over its uncertain future), rumors about OG (spiritual and otherwise) returns to Atlanta, Kiki's current storyline on Miami and the great potential ahead, and the ways that the Miami franchise is grounded in mutual affection, and yes, hot takes on Married to Medicine, including whether Quad and Mariah could - and should - return.

Sarah starts packing for her big trip to Europe (goal: to follow Dorit's Peter Pan musical caravan as a groupie with a dream), when she realizes she can't take Sutton's PJ when there's still so much Housewives to unpack. So she invites one of her Bravoholic pals over to the cloffice for an epic two-part deep dive chat: Housewives writer and culture commentator, Louis Peitzman. Over the course of a rollicking two part spectacular, they discuss why the timeline over Kyle and Mauricio's separation is key to understanding a fuller picture of their on-and surely off-camera behavior, Mo's bewildering absence from the reunion (and his marriage), whether Annemarie is truly 'one and done,' the current stalemate over RHUGT: Morocco (and concern over how the Bravo community have been punitive in their upset over its uncertain future), rumors about OG (spiritual and otherwise) returns to Atlanta, Kiki's current storyline on Miami and the great potential ahead, and the ways that the Miami franchise is grounded in mutual a

Sarah watches an old episode of The People's (People's) Court, and realizes she's ready to put some of her own hot takes on trial. So she Zooms up one of her fave seekers of truth, Tracie Morrissey (writer, producer, host of the podcast Pot Psychology, and creator of pipe dreams.fun). They file some amicus briefs on RHUGT: Morocco, and discuss what it means to be "petty" in the Scandoval universe, Tracie's review of Ariana's performance in Chicago, Lisa Hochstein's search for a caregiver, Kyle's conscious uncoupling (and Mo's seeming inability to prioritize their marriage), what Porsha's return to Atlanta means for Phaedra's own potential peach, and a spirited debate about some of the Morocco cast's decision to take sides.

Sarah files paperwork to ascend the throne (not in the UK, but the Bravo Clubhouse downtown). She runs into some issues as she attempted to trademark "Dame" for sole use in the cloffice, as there is more than one royal head of the Bravo community. So who better to share a crown than her fellow writer girl with a heart of gold (Satchels of Gold), Founder and President of the Real Housewives Universe, Dame Brian Moylan (New York Times bestselling author behind "The Housewives: The Real Story Behind the Real Housewives"). They discuss the similarities and differences between Ariana, Lisa Hochstein, and Larsa's roles in their relationships (and breakups), potential nuance in the upcoming season of Summer House around Carl and Lindsay's "surprise" breakups, and how Sandoval and Erika Jayne frame toxic social media when questions arise about accountability and blame.

It's the golden age of television, and that's just from the castle confessionals between Phaedra and Parvati. So, of course, there's much to discuss. Sarah and AG guest co-host Dylan Hafer (director of social for entertainment at Betches Media, host of the pod Mention It All, and creator of @BravoByBetches) talk about their reactions to the shocking plot twist on The Traitors, Kevin's flop attachment style, who they're rooting for in the end, plus their obsession with Sad Nicole [Kidman] Energy in her latest prestige vehicle, Expats (an emotional experience for Sarah, cue Kleenex), and Sarah's latest fave TV binge, the super-sexy and fun reboot of Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

Sarah takes an Uber Pool to support Adriana's pride concert (whomever was running the sound mix for that lip-syncing is undoubtably an ally), where she drops off a sign for Julia with a correctly spelled name. After anointing herself a spelling b (don't finish sounding out that word), Sarah invites over one of her fave people to the cloff, who puts the B in SBBD, Dylan Hafer (director of social for entertainment at Betches Media, host of the pod Mention It All, and creator of @BravoByBetches). They discuss the ongoing dynamics on Bev Hills about a cast "friend circle" allegiance to each other vs. production responsibility and comms, the difference between empathy and responsibility between Erika and the cast (spoiler alert: compassion is a hard thing to feel bad about), Lisa's Big Brat Era and her insistence around being the victim of her own poor behavior, and why Kiki deserves to be full-time. Miami faced an island of misfit toys, which is also the name of Lisa's perfume pricing dept. - it's Andy's Girls, E

The Traitors is having one of those kinds of "watch this in real time or you will forever regret" seasons, and so of course Sarah needs to mention it all. She is joined by AG guest co-host and spiritual Faithful Tom Smyth, where they discuss Phaedra's SCOTUS-level roundtable against Dan, a round of "flop or bop" about Larsa and Kevin, misconceptions about Pilot Pete's ability to soar (and why Annemarie's husband might score him at a 6, apologies to 8.5), Parvati's Black Widow Brigade trilogy, Tom and Sarah's picks for S3, and more.

Sarah wakes up on yet another day without new eps of Salt Lake (the inhumanity!!!!), until she realizes that, thank god, Variety and New York Mag published exclusive interviews with Monica, Heather, production, and Andy too! So she Zooms up the great minds behind these epic deep dives, two of her fave writer girls (spiritually, obvs) - Kate Aurthur (Variety's editor-at-large) and writer Louis Staples. They discuss secrets revealed from Kate and Louis' dramatic deep dives with the cast, a cast conspiracy about Monica from Season 3, the discrepancy around "selective truth" for both Monica and Heather, what morality means in the post-Jen Shah Era, whether production knew about Reality von Tease, the likelihood of whether Monica will be lifted from production purgatory aka "pause," and yes, thoughts on whether RHUGT: Morocco will (and should) air. Just call this episode a lending library, because it must be passed around - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 505! Kate’s interview with Heather: https://variety.com/2024/tv/

Inspired by the Beverly Hills cast's Barcelona-set Supermarket Sweep, Sarah rushes to Etsy to see if she can find any $3 dupes for a 300-year-old fan. She stockpiles an array for the cloff (no better way to clear anti-Shan energy before OC inevitably airs), and enjoys an equally breezy convo with her Bravoholic pal (and renowned artiste), Tom Smyth (Vulture blogger, writer and proprietor behind Milk and Don't Call Me Honey). They Uber Eats some GF vegan paella with a size of Zaddy, and discuss Sutton’s devastating end of episode memory play (Tennessee Williams wishes, tbh), and her combined and complicated grief over the loss of Merce, her dad, and her marriage, the connection between Erika's dinner performance and Dorinda's interpretation of her own, Annemarie's push to be graded on a curve, Dorit and Garcelle's conversation about marginalized communities (and the ways to discuss privilege without invalidating trauma), and yes, the wild, wild, ride that was this week's Miami (an island of misfit toys, Larsa

Break out your Pumptinis and GF vegan goat cheese balls (or whatever they'll be serving on The Valley aside from possibly-middling TV) - Vanderpump Rules is back, and yes, it's about Tom. And Tom. Sarah breaks down her highlights from the VPR premiere, whether or not Ariana can fully process her breakup while in a new relationship, what people are (possibly) getting wrong in comparing Lala's voice note to her boundaries over Rand, a likely-uncomfortable season for Schwartz (...hopefully?), and yes, Sandoval's constitutional right to annoy his neighbors (and the rest of the world). Sandoval ended the episode by bringing home baggage, which was certainly a window into this season's soul - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 503!

Inspired by the Beverly Hills haunted Barcelona casa, Sarah knocks on her own door, hoping that if the sound is eery enough, a PJ-clad Sutton and Garcelle will stop by. Alas, if these walls could talk, they'd say, "be smarter than what Annamarie says Crystal says about the cast." So she invites over one of her fave Housewives intellectuals, someone whose Roman Empire is Heather's eye, content creator and Bravoholic Christine Biancavilla. They discuss Caroline Manzo's shocking lawsuit against Bravo, Peacock, Shed, and NBC, why Monica's reunion girl math isn't mathing, the joy of a Beverly Hills battle that is low stakes framed as high, what Annemarie is finally doing right (hint: it's still about being very wrong), Dorit's confessional flop era, Erika Jayne's relapse into snarky apathy about those damn earrings, and more.

Sarah realizes she has become helpless to the constant pull of a Salt Lake reunion rewatch. So after another viewing of part 3 (for...more than a third time), she decides the best way to 'internalize' is to do the exact opposite: an external, extra-zesty cloffice kiki with her pal, actor, producer, writer, and People’s Couch alum, Emerson Collins. They settle into the cloff and deep dive whether Sandoval will receive a redemption season energy from his cast (and the Pump Rules audience), the ways recent exclusive media interviews have influenced a deeper dive of Monica and Heather's motivations, the ways to hold space for trauma and also accountability (a seemingly impossible practice with Bravo discourse these days), the cast's frequent comparison of Monica and Jen (and disconnect over righteous rage), Angie K. and Whitney's centered reunion performances, and how to trust Monica's truth about whether production knew about her trolling. Monica may not be back to Salt Lake, but this season will always have a f
