Not Mad About It

Spirits are Chai

Not Mad About It

Show Notes

This week’s episode, “Spirits are Chai,” is a little switch-up—and we’re not mad about it. Since we dropped a bonus episode last Thursday recapping Summer House and RHORI, we’re taking a break from our usual show recaps and diving into everything else living rent-free in our brains right now. We get into some upcoming Hulu shows (including The Mob and the Bastards—yes, written by Meghan Oppenheimer of Tell Me Lies fame ), plus a music catch-up featuring Kacey Musgraves and Noah Kahan’s new albums, and our thoughts on Ariana Grande’s upcoming album Petals. We also take a moment of silence for Spirit Airlines… gone but never forgotten. For TV, we’re sharing shows you guys (the Maddies) told us to watch—and what we actually think now that we’ve started them—plus what’s dropping this week that should be on your radar. We’re also talking about our newest read and future recap: Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden, and wrapping things up with our thoughts on last week’s absolutely unhinged Survivor episode featuring MrBeast. And of course, we close it out with our Not Mad About It’s… which are especially good this week. Grab your chai (or something stronger) and hang with us.

We're back for our TV recap episode! We’re breaking down this week’s Dancing with the Stars, including our favorite and least favorite performances and the SHOCKING elimination that nobody saw coming. Then we’re off to “Erika’s Island” with the RHONY girls, where we have to ask: what’s worse, Jessel snickering about Daisy’s popcorn ceiling or Daisy calling Erika out for lying about owning the island? Kim, there are people dying. We wrap things up in Salt Lake City, where we’re not gonna lie… something feels like it’s missing this season. We’re talking all the drama from this week’s episode and who we’d kick off the cast if a shake-up were on the table. We’ll be back Monday with our regularly scheduled programming!

We missed Friday’s recap because Nikki was SICK… but she’s roided up, back from the dead, and ready to rock. This week is a TRUE mixed bag of pop culture. We’re talking about the shocking passing of Gypsy Rose’s ex-fiancé Ken Urker, Mauricio Umansky announcing that he wants to run for mayor of LA (???), a major TRL reunion that has us DEEP in our millennial nostalgia, and Ariana Madix starring in a brand-new sci-fi Housewives show. Yes, you read that correctly. Housewives…in space. Plus, we both came prepared with our latest show, movie, and podcast recommendations, so there’s plenty to add to your watch/listen list.
