Show Notes
It’s a vacation week for Dylan, but international borders and timezones can’t stop him from recapping the latest episode of Real Housewives of Rhode Island. Still reeling from the Slam Pig smackdown, the cast picks up the pieces and finds even more things to argue about, as Liz and Alicia’s issues flare up once again. Later in the episode, Dylan dips into the Mention It All Mailbag to answer some listener questions. Who could possibly replace Andy Cohen? Is anyone banned from being an MIA guest? And does Amanda Batula have a trick up her sleeve to get back in America’s good graces?

Beaming in from vacation, Dylan sifts through an assortment of Bravo (and Bravo-adjacent) topics in this week’s solo episode. He kicks things off with an important discussion about the premiere of The Golden Life. The RHONY OGs are in Palm Beach, but do we still need to watch? And where does this show go after season one? Speaking of OGs from a bygone era, Dylan also chats about the latest Bravo offering, Vanderpump Rules: Lisa Las Vegas. Is this the last time we’ll see LVP on a Bravo show? Later, Dylan answers listener questions from the MIA Mailbag, including his selections for a White House cabinet composed of Real Housewives.
The bad mormon herself, Heather Gay, joins Dylan to break down RHOSLC Season 7, from trying to make peace with Lisa Barlow to how Mary Cosby's family tragedy changed the dynamic of the entire group. Heather also opens up about finding love with her boyfriend Trip, why bringing a relationship onto reality TV can be risky, and how the Housewives struggle to celebrate each other's success. Plus, she reflects on seven years of RHOSLC, raising her daughters outside the Mormon church, and the dark inspiration behind her new thriller novel, Eternal Glow.
It’s a great day to be a Bravo fan, because the Real Housewives of Potomac are finally back! Dylan breaks down the fiery season premiere, which sees the return of Karen and Robyn, a major marriage rumor uncovered, and lots of shady behavior. From there, Dylan shifts his focus to RHONY, where the Moskito Island trip continues with new drama aplenty, including Carole’s Epstein Files explanation and Erin’s unfortunate husband accusation. Later, RHOSLC wraps up their San Francisco trip with a ho-hum boat trip and a questionable diss track.
Carole Radziwill is back on RHONY after eight years, and she's joining Dylan to break down her highly anticipated return to RHONY. Carole opens up about her tension with Jessel, why certain comments crossed the line, and how the release of Love Story brought an unexpectedly emotional challenge to her return to reality TV. She also shares what convinced her to come back, how she feels about the new RHONY cast, and why she wouldn't join the OG Housewives in their new spinoff. Plus, Carole reflects on her friendship with Dorinda Medley, Aviva Drescher's infamous leg throw, and how BravoCon changed her perspective on her Housewives legacy.
Back for another jam-packed Friday episode, Dylan starts with some news from around the Bravo universe. Southern Charm is back for another season (with a love child?), and Whitney Rose is officially getting divorced. Then, Traitors returns after a dreaded baseball break, but the episode isn’t quite a full meal. For the rest of the episode, Dylan digs into all things Housewives, from the epic Bluestone Manor conclusion of RHUGT, to RHONY’s messy arrival to Moskito Island, to RHOSLC’s chaotic excursions in San Francisco. With RHONY on the rise, is the SLC Housewives crown in danger?
