Jurassic Bark: Part 1 (Dylan Hafer on The Valley, In the City, RHOA, Next Gen NYC, RHOC, and more)
Andy's Girls: A Real Housewives PodcastShow Notes
"I dreamed a dream of time gone by, when The Valley was fun, if that ever happened." Sarah realizes her lyrical work may need another pass, but the sentiment behind it? Also may need another pass. And yet, "Les Mis" does encompass some of the Bravo stars currently feeling the heat (but thankfully enough, not all of them). And who better to have a few notes about this 16-bar cut than a fellow Bravoholic with dual degrees in Musical Theatre Performance and Mentioning It All: Dylan Hafer (director of entertainment content at Betches Media, host of "Mention It All," and creator of @BravoByBetches, affectionately known to AGs as SBBD). Sarah and Sweet BB Dyl settle into the cloffice for a full-on deep dive of all things Bravo TV and more (shoutout 100-year-old wooden boats in Amsterdam and Hailey Steinfeld's music career). Over the course of this two-part mention it all, Sarah and Dylan unpack the continued darkness on The Valley (and false equivocations about Danny v. Janet, including that solo cup moment vs. Danny's repeated acts), In the City's pilot episode season, Lindsay Hubbard, Apex Predator (and thank god for that!), Amanda's second at-bat revising history and the reasons for her reunion performance, the ways toxic marriages/binge drinking/rage are being covered on The Valley and In the City, what Next Gen NYC's reunion seating chart means for the future of the cast (and word on the street about Charlie and Ariana), the continued JOY that is RHOA and their subsequent press tours, Kelli's "setting the standard" spiel, what the RHOA reunion trailer revealed about Shamea v. Porsha (and Shamea's unsteady future on the show), the power of watching the RHOA cast successfully monetize their roles, Porsha's RSVP to Rum Bum Halloween, RHOC (...), and more. Say it regret it, write it, neverforgetitthankssomuchagain,Porsha - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 819! Part 1! Thank You to AG's Sponsors!

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah and AG guest cohost Tom Smyth deep dive their reactions to the Golden Life premiere (and whether nostalgia can carry through a season of technically new content), Sonja's upset about a RHONY interaction from a decade prior, how upset is viewed/judged when the focus is on Sai v. Carole v. Daisy, Erin's gossip about Pavit, a very strong start for Potomac, Tom's love of a possible lightning-rod RHOSLC cast member, and why he's enjoying RHOC.

Sarah realizes before taking a trip that she absolutely didn't end up taking, she needs to unpack some emotional baggage. So after putting a variety of neutrals back into the Chic Europe Sass section of the cloffice, she invites over her Bravoholic pal, writer Tom Smyth, for a spiritual opposite day (very different Housewives opinions, how blessed!). Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah and Tom deep dive their reactions to the Golden Life premiere (and whether nostalgia can carry through a season of technically new content), Sonja's upset about a RHONY interaction from a decade prior, how upset is viewed/judged when the focus is on Sai v. Carole v. Daisy, Erin's gossip about Pavit, a very strong start for Potomac, Tom's love of a possible lightning-rod RHOSLC cast member, and why he's enjoying RHOC.

The journey continues. Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah and AG guest cohost Alison Leiby unpack the wild twists and turns of this season of RHONY (and squabbles online), the rumors and nastiness around Jessel's marriage (and potential breadcrumbs left by Erin about Sai), unpacking the nuance vs. lack thereof in Carole and Sai's back and forth, "colorful past" questions, Sarah's time at the Golden Life premiere party, and more.

Sarah spends the week trying to hill her back, ie taking a muscle relaxer also known as Real Housewives of New York Season 16. She does a few rounds of core work (the after show), and then invites over a friend and Bravoholic who is ready to mention it all: Alison Leiby (writer, comedian, cohost of the pod "Ruined," and author, "I'm a Lot"). They pay Tofu his weekly stipend for work as AG's associate producer (cat food and soft pets, similar to Sonja's offer to interns), and then settle into the cloffice for an epic deep dive. Over the course of this two-parter, they unpack the wild twists and turns of this season of RHONY (and squabbles online), the rumors and nastiness around Jessel's marriage (and potential breadcrumbs left by Erin about Sai), unpacking the nuance vs. lack thereof in Carole and Sai's back and forth, "colorful past" questions, Sarah's time at the Golden Life premiere party, and more.

Hear ye, hear ye (Gestures to the Clubhouse: Here, ye! Here, ye!). Sarah realizes with the midterms looming (make sure you vote), there's another Get Out the Vote - a State of the Union for Bravo. And whom better to check-in on Bravo's past, present, and future, than fellow podcaster and Bravoholic, Kara Berry ("Everyone's Business But Mine"). Over the course of this two-parter (P2 on Kara's pod!), Sarah and Kara unpack their thoughts on the current seasons of RHONY, RHOP, RHOSLC, RHOC, and more, the year in Housewives, the experiences of Bravo podcasting on and off mic, what RHUGT reflected about the journey of Bravoleb OGs (spiritual and otherwise), and how a cast without inherent competitive conflict showed different sides of the core cast, where the future of Bravo, Housewives, and women-focused content is heading, and more. Vicki may not like to participate, but this convo is all-in -it's Andy's Girls, Episode 843! Thank You to AG's Sponsors!
