We are talking about the eventful week of all things Housewives from the shakeup in OC (1:20), Housewife & the Hustler (9:02), psychoanalyzing Crystal on RHOBH (16:15), and Leah the toddler on RHONY (31:29). 

We're talking Family Karma S2E3 which means we're diving deep into the festival of Navratri, explaining Garba, and also making a case for why Richa is too fucking dope for a putz like Vishal. 

We recap our epic weekend of too much socializing, the lackluster episode of Married to Medicine (10:26) and the cultural appropriation bonanza on Shahs of Sunset (29:22)

We're talking all things RHOBH (4:00) and RHONY (26:05) which happens to be filled with white ladies doing the most to be the worst. Enjoy!

We're breaking down the Auntie Party and Auntie dynamics on S2E2 of Family Karma, from Bollywood songs, to Lopa's sinister giggle, to Reshma's lack of eye contact with Bali and the muscle memory of a tight slap.

THE Taria Faison of the What Else Is Going On Podcast hopped on this week to talk about the problematic bitch that is Bravo herself. Topics included Kenya Moore being terrible (5:00), Aarti's explanation of exactly what the scam is that Lisa Nicole is running on Married to Medicine (15:40), and the twisted game of thrones or game of clue that is Shahs of Sunset (44:00)!

What a week of problematic behavior it has been! We are diving into RHOBH (4:00) Kathy first and unfortunately into RHONY (23:48) curry first.

Surprise! Family Karma is back! So we dropped a new weekly episode to talk about Family Karma! We're not sure if this will be weekly but the premiere was so juicy and content rich we needed to put some respect on its name. The whole gang is back and as Aunties ourselves, we had to spend some time psychoanalyzing the whole cast like local busy bodies at the masjid/mandir. 

**TRIGGER WARNING** We talk about the RHONJ Reunion and how terribly they presented the sexual harassment in the workplace discussion from 7:20 to 15:12. Feel free to skip ahead! Aarti is back! We talk about a lot of things that don't always flow into each other but we do laugh along the way.

Married to Medicine: 21:12 Shahs: 40:48

This week on the pod we had Chelsea from @ohnobravo hop on to talk about all things Housewives from our heartbreak over Caroline Manzo, to Kathy Hilton's teeth, to Garth's curry, to the mess of a reunion that was RHONJ. Follow Chelsea on Instagram @ohnobravo and support her Patreon here!

We're talking Shahs, Pepto, Ration, Groceries, Holi, M2M! Enjoy!

This episode is a ramotional ramonacoaster. Here are some time stamps of all the things we had to say about Housewives, but trigger warning, we do talk about the Israel Palestine issue from the start to about 17 minutes.

Aarti is back! We said bye bye to Hannah Berner, said Hello to Shahs (23:44) and said HUH!? to whatever happened at Quad's party on Married to Medicine (9:15). 

The hilarious @thetomhamlett of @dumpsterdivepod subbed in as Aarti this week and we had the delightfully hilarious @anewborn87 of @romanticrealistpodcast as our guest to talk all things Housewives, the mystery of Porsha Williams and Simon Not-van-kempen, why Andy Cohen is problematic, and so much more. 

Timestamps:

RHOD (21:01) RHONY (33:03) RHONJ (51:53)

We are just managing expectations friends! We talk about RHOA Reunions (2:15) and briefly touch on the Porsha-Simon-Falynn-Maybe-Pregnancy of it all but are mostly conspiracy theorizing because we recorded on Monday afternoon before we got confirmation that Porsha set a fire to everything. We also talk Summer House reunion part 2 (15:30) and the latest Married to Medicine (37:00) where Quad killed us, as usual. 

Friend of the podcast Kim Knight (@spicedbykim) hopped on the podcast this week to have probably the most eye opening and honest discussions we've ever had about Bravo's mishandling of racism and other problematic behaviors on Housewives. We talk about RHOD, RHONY Premiere, and RHONJ. 

On this tangential episode, our friend Kendrick Tucker, host of Me & You, The Housewives, & Marvel Too (@housewivesmarvelpodcast) and also the Bravo Chat Room's #1 Fan, hopped on to talk about the Summer House Reunion Part 1, Married to Medicine, and just about everything else that you could imagine!

Before we dive into Part 2 of our mega chat with hilarious and brilliant comedian, writer on the Emmy Nominated "A Black Lady Sketch Show" (Season 2 out now!), lover and hate watcher of all things reality tv, and most importantly our dear friend, Rae Sanni, we are talking about Housewives Allstars and of course the Summer House Finale!

Hilarious and brilliant comedian, writer on the Emmy Nominated "A Black Lady Sketch Show" (Season 2 out now!), lover and hate watcher of all things reality tv, and most importantly our dear friend, Rae Sanni hopped on the pod this week for a mega chat where we psychoanalyzed just about everybody on TV and maybe even ourselves. Also make sure to check out The Cast with Jaquis Neal & Rae everywhere podcasts are heard.

Noor is talking about Ramadan and how she may be doing it so right that its wrong. We discuss the FANTASTIC hour of TV by the ladies of Married to Medicine, the sudden end to the Summer House season, and of course the sneak peak of the new Real Housewives of Potomac season.

 

Watch what happens, watch what crappens, real housewives of new york, real housewives of new jersey, andy cohen.

This week Drew showed her internalized misogyny, Tiffany made us cry, and Jennifer made us believe that Bill Aydin really is the best house husband.

RHONJ, RHOA, RHOD, housewives, bravo, podcasts, wwhl, watch what happens, watch what crappens

We are talking about RHOBH, Married to medicine, and Summer house. Here's 2 truth and a lie, in that order:

Sutton got a diamond because Kathy is a dud We prefer Lisa Nicole over Contessa We loved the star crossed lovers rom com level romance of Des and Hannah

In the 2nd half of our chat with our PodDaddies Ben Mandelker and Ronnie Karam from Watch What Crappens, we talk about managing expectations when watching problematic shows, Jen Shah the telemarketer, and dive into a crappens mail-bag style Q&A! 

This week our PodDaddies Ben Mandelker and Ronnie Karam from Watch What Crappens were sweet enough to hop on the podcast and talk about everything from Housewives to House Hunters! We had laughs and tears and Aarti may or may not have murdered Harold. Who is Harold? Listen in and find out! 

OH! And we had so much fun talking to them that we had to split the episode into 2 parts! 

We talk about Jen Shah and whether or not Bravo should be changing their casting process, we talk about the struggles of immigrant children bonding with their unemotional parents in Dallas (21:00), briefly plan Noor's 40th birthday in ATL/NOLA (31:00), and talk about another banger episode from our gals in Jersey (32:15). 

We're talking Married to Medicine (7:10) and how "the turntables" for us on Manjula and why anyone would think Luke in Summer House (29:20) is smart enough to manipulate anyone. Can Luke even spell manipulate?!

Join us on this deranged rollercoaster ride with Tom and Cix Hamlett from the Dumpster Dive Podcast. We discuss Kenya's insensitive costume in Atlanta (15:23), cafeteria Christianity in Dallas (38:54), and surprisingly beignets in New Jersey (1:02:59).  

Tom Hamlett Instagram - @thetomhamlett Cix Hamlett Instagram - @cixhamlett Dumpster Dive Podcast Instagram - @dumpsterdivepod The Reality Is Instagram - @therealityispod

We break down the RHONY Trailer (1:59), continue to discuss why Kyle Cooke is a great dad (7:00), and deep dive into Married to Medicine like a nice cold bowl of rasmalai (19:40)

This week we talked about RHOA, RHONJ, and RHOD, as usual. We also talk about the vicious attack on the Asian Community in Atlanta. We encourage our listeners to donate the following organizations: 

Asian American Advancing Justice (AAAJ) - Donations will help "ensure that low-income, immigrant and underserved Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders have access to free legal services and the most effective civil rights advocacy possible."  The Asian American Advocacy Fund (AAF) - With a mission to "advocate for the civil and human rights" of those in the AAPI community, the group has different donation funds aimed at tackling specific issues. AAF also offers volunteer and civil engagement opportunities to drive positive change.  The Center for Pan Asian Community Services (CPACS) - Donations to CPACS help the organization provide "comprehensive health and social services, capacity building, and advocacy" to immigrants, refugees and the underprivileged, especially Asian women, children and families with low incomes.  Stop AAPI Hate - A non-profit organization for people to report and track anti-Asian hate incidents. Donations go toward the group's continuous effort to "track and respond to the surge in racism and xenophobia."

We had a friend of the pod, Lori, join us this week to share her perspective on how the internet is handling the Meghan Markle discussion (spoiler alert: not well, bitch!). We also talk about how Kyle continues to be a total dad on Summer House and if we are Team Jackie or Team Simone on Married to Medicine. We are team give Toya some food. 

Hey Bravo - how about you make Married to Medicine Dallas and make Tiffany Moon your HBIC!? Until then, we are here bitchin' about all things housewives, air fryers and racism! Listen in!

Do you think Harry would get Meghan fish and chips takeout and take it out of the container like Stravy didn't bother doing for Lindsay? Well, we talk about all of that AND the Married to Medicine premiere. 

Meghan, Harry & Oprah (1:00) Noor on WWHL (18:13) Summer House (20:44) Married to Medicine (29:45)

This week we learned (no surprise) that Jen Shah is a terrible human (4:18), Kenya is a sad human (7:37), Teresa is a dumb human (17:08), and Tiffany is the only decent human in Dallas (24:05). 

Get your box of tissues because this episode takes a surprisingly emotional detour while we talk about Episodes 2 and 3 of Netflix The Big Day (20:45), but we promise not to nana-nana-boo-boo at you or stomp around like a toddler like Hannah did on Summer House (2:43). 

Everyone wants to talk about Bolo but we wanna talk about Marlo catching a whole ass shark on Atlanta (5:30), in New Jersey Teresa continues to be the dumbest person on TV (18:13), and on the final reunion episode in Salt Lake City, we learned that even women of color can be bad allies (28:24).

We're talking Summer House and Netflix's "The Big Day" (27:59).

Whether we're talking about actual weather in Texas or Heather and Whitney from SLC, this week Real Housewives across the country spun us into a whirlwind of excellent reality television. 

Here's how you can do more for Texas, than Ted Cruz - please Venmo what you can to:

@austinmutualaid (Austin) @feedthepeopledallas (Dallas) @dfwmutualaid (Dallas Fort Worth) @sunriseelpaso.org (El Paso) @trinitymutualaid (San Antonio) @mutualaidhou (Houston) @ntrr4yall (North Rural Resilience)

We're talking Summer House but more importantly, we're recapping an amazing show on Netflix called "Buried By The Bernards" which showed us a hilarious and heartwarming look at running a funeral home. 

It was a week of microagressions: from not actually impeaching Trump, the Bachelor hosts asking for grace for a racist cast member, to the RHOD ladies picking on Tiffany because she has a schedule and thinks removing shoes is important IN A PANDEMIC. We talk about all of it and then we laugh our asses off about RHOSLC Reunion Part 1 because Lisa Barlow came guns blazing and well...we love that. 

Tom Brady is the Bethenny of Sports Balls, Hannah is terrible, and House of Ho on HBO Max is fantastic family drama reality tv. 

Before we get into the hilarity of Kenya Moore not feeding her guests in Atlanta (12:00), Kary weaponizing her child's mental health issues in Dallas (22:40), and Jen Shah's epic nosedive into terrible housewife territory (31:11), we thought it was important to discuss the #FarmersProtests in India (4:47). 

Below are some resources to get a better understanding on what it was Rihanna tweeted about this week:

#farmersprotests #standwithfarmers #iamwithfarmers 

Before we get into our recap of Bling Empire Eps 4-8, we had to talk about Jen Shah's absolutely deplorable Instagram post. After discussing a nose dive more epic than The Countess tumbling into a bush, we talk about Bling Empire and tell you why we would also make Kevin our brother. 

Something happened this week with Cher and maybe she squeezed into some shorts near some hedges?! Then a bunch of nerds got rich?! Well it wasn't us! So we try to talk about that poorly and move onto the ups and downs of bravo this week, on and off tv! 

We recapped the first 4 episodes of Bling Empire and are obsessed with every single person on the show! Listen in!

We are diving into an incredible moment in history: Bernard sanders memes. JUST KIDDING. Obvi, we talk about the historic Inauguration! We also talk about RHOA, RHOD, and RHOSLC. And in case anyone was wondering (no one is wondering), Noor shares her clunky COVID19 vaccine journey.

Between moldy tin tubs at a spa in SLC and acting a damn fool at dim sum in Dallas...we had to ask...white people...why?

We collaborated with Noor's other podcast (Raju Bangaya Podcast - a podcast about Shah Rukh Khan) to discuss the BIG BASH at Gauri Khan's house. In the finale of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood wives we learned that all this money and these ladies are as thirsty as the cast of Vanderpump Rules.

Check out Raju Bangaya Podcast on Instagram and Twitter!

We decompressed our thoughts on domestic terrorism by the hands of white supremacists on our Capitol this week, which was a great segue to Dallas's Brandi Redmond, the racist. In Atlanta, classic Kenya is activated and in Salt Lake City, Whitney drank too much and we got a textbook Housewives messy moment.

Karan Johar thinks we were born yesterday as he presents us with the phoniest corniest biggest ad for Qatar tourism of a cast trip on the 6th and 7th episode of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. Listen in as we complain.
