This week, the girls spiral straight into the emotional deep end — chatting motherhood expectations, teaching kids generosity, and the small joys (and delusions) that keep us sane. From Vegas F1 sightings to Jake Paul’s marketing genius, Cat Stickler rumors, and a full Tell Me Lies spiral, the girls run through the celebrity and TV moments currently living rent-free in their heads. They dig into Wicked’s performances, the raw weight of the Surviving Mormonism doc, and a surprisingly thoughtful RHOC reunion. Then it’s back into Kardashian world — Kendall’s horses, family history, co-parenting revelations, and that Kim vs. Kourtney tension we all felt in our bones — before closing with a very on-brand Ick & Icon.

We recorded this episode in full Bravocon-hangover mode, still half-laughing, half-shocked at what actually went down on Sunday night. From accidentally spending 45 minutes waiting for Craig Conover to emerge from a State Farm shoot, to Captain Carey literally hopping into our Uber like the world’s friendliest sea captain, to Luann casually adjusting boobs in a hotel bar — this night deserves its own franchise. We get into the unexpected softness of Joe Bradley (the hype-man we never knew we needed), why West and Kyle continue to be the nicest humans on Bravo, Bronwyn’s rising queen status, Emmy flipping a necklace mid-bar, Lake guessing ages, and Zach Wickham running the social Olympics to make sure everyone has a good time. Plus: Stassi stepping into reunion-host mode, the internet spiraling over Whitney’s Dancing With the Stars exit, and the messy Wendy & Eddie fraud headlines that dropped mid-week. Timestamps: 00:00 — The Bravocon fog and why Sunday night broke us 06:30 — Waiting 45 minutes for Craig (and still missing him) 11:50 — Captain Carey hops in our Uber like a legend 16:40 — Hotel bar safari: Housewives “in the wild” 23:10 — Luann adjusts boobs + delivers an iconic one-liner 29:20 — Joe Bradley’s hype-man era + West & Kyle sweetness 36:45 — Emmy fixes the necklace; Lake plays the age game 42:30 — Zach Wickham: guardian angel of vibes 48:55 — Stassi hosting, DWTS chaos, and Wendy & Eddie rumours Friend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.

Today it's a full deep-dive into the Southern Charm season premiere, and Charleston wasted zero time delivering. This episode unpacks the surprise tension between Craig Conover and Venita Aspen, the early cracks in Austen Kroll’s relationship, and the slow-burn love triangle forming around Craig and Sally. Plus, we revisit the Paige fallout, the JT loyalty hangover, and why Madison’s co-ed baby shower at Patricia’s house might be one of the most revealing group scenes in years. We follow the premiere beat by beat — from that “two months earlier” cold open, to Shep oversharing in the baby store, to the boys immediately becoming the most dramatic people in the room. If this episode is any indication, it’s going to be a season built on shifting alliances, soft-spoken shade, and a whole lot of Charleston crossover energy.

Three days of BravoCon in Vegas distilled into one hour. Ariana and Renee talk about crossing paths with Lisa Vanderpump, and unexpected run-in with Tom Sandoval, and the Summer House excitement that kept following them around. Recording straight from their Bellagio bed, the girls unpack what BravoCon felt like from the inside: the energy on day one, the encounters that shifted their perspective, a night out that escalated fast, and why seeing certain Bravolebs in person completely changed the way they watch their shows. They also get into the panels that delivered, the franchises that surprised them, the merch they couldn’t leave without, and the spontaneous idea that might shape future episodes. It’s messy, warm, and very much a love letter to Bravo fans who know the ecosystem too well.

Today the girls are breaking down the Kardashian birthday fallout, RHOSLC chaos, and the pop-culture whiplash of the week. Nothing's off limits from Kris Jenner’s ultra-produced party (and the mysteriously deleted Harry & Meghan photos) to the alleged Bruno-Mars-price-tag discourse, the girls spiral through celebrity optics before settling into Bravocon prep, millennial-nostalgia TV rewatches, and influencer-world absurdities. Then it’s a full dive into Salt Lake City — husbands who hate the show, Whitney’s job drama, Angie vs. everyone, and the line of the week: “You’re not my God.” They wrap with Miami reunion takeaways, Love Island career pivots, Hillary Duff renaissance, and the eternal question: why did they name that child Slim Easy?

RHOL’s Nessie & Juliet join us to unpack S1: what surprised them watching it back, the fan hellos from around the world and how mum life looks when the cameras are up. Nessie and Juliet reflect on their first year as Housewives — the watch-back realizations, what felt different once the full story aired, and how they’re processing it now. They share the sweetest recognition moments (from London streets to global DMs) and what international fandom has meant IRL. Then it’s motherhood on TV: staying grounded for their kids, school-run reality versus glam, and the boundaries that keep family first — plus the one piece of advice they’d give any future London Housewife: be yourself…and buckle up.
