Show Notes

This week Leo and Nesu started off with a good ol’ weekend catch-up and get right into what Nesu considers her least fav show at the moment, Real Housewives of New Jersey (00:15:06). The duo discuss S12E11 ‘Nightmare in Nashvegas’, the ongoing feud between Marge and Tre; and exchange opinions on how this season has been. They then slide onto S01E02 of Real Housewives of Lagos (00:58:49) and dissect what appears to be a slow-burn when it comes to this show. They end off on a lighthearted note by talking about the Queen of Potomac’s brand new two-episode spin-off, Karen’s Grand Dame Reunion (01:20:49). The duo discuss how enjoyable part 1, ‘The Grande Dame of Surry County’, was and which other Potomac housewife’s spin-off they’d enjoy.
