Cocktails and Gossip

Amanda's dog is a jerk. The Mistress in Miami seems to find herself single again. Shocking. We have some exclusive Real Housewives of Miami tea about who may or may not be continuing on the show and who may or may not have been demoted. And where is Alexia's head in her on again, off again relationship with Todd? We can't stop watching Tamra's face peel off on social - it's must see viewing each day. And Vicki really went in after Tamra - we think they're both going way too low and they both need to stop. Oh, the Valley, the gift that never seems to stop giving us drama. We've got more exclusive tea this week about Brittany and separately about a new person filming this season who has ties to Michelle and her boyfriend...love triangle??? And did Jesse and Lexi from Summer House continue their romance now that summer is over?

So much happening in the Bravoverse this week, we barely knew where to start. First, well wishes to Vicki from RHOC who is recovering from a near death illness. Alexis Bellino is engaged to Jimmy J, and we wish them well. But will Alexis' divorce settlement prevent her from actually marrying Johnny Aioli? Tamra is getting a lot of heat for her treatment of Shannon. Vanderpump Rules' future is being questioned - will there be another season? We have some exclusive info on this from a source. And in other VPR news, Brittany filed for divorce - and for full custody, which tells us there's more to the story. And we have some info on what may have led to Jax going into rehab. Plus a theory on why Brittany finally filed.  And we have SO MUCH tea on what's actually happening with the whole cast of The Valley and why they're divided, plus who's on which side. So much drama and mess and we are here for it.

Jenn Fessler joins us this week - she is authentic, real, and answers the hard questions. We got a preview of her new song. She reveals something surprising - there is a surprising piece of information that all of the RHONJ housewives knew going into filming and throughout filming the season. Jenn's favorite and least favorite parts of being a housewife, plus where she stands with each of the women. And, best of all, she shares a little preview of her new song. Jenn also graciously gave Cocktailers an exclusive discount on her sexy yet comfortable line of stiletto heels, F Major. Go to shopfmajor.com and enter code COCKTAILS for 25% off!

We kick off with a back to school tangent. And of course, we talk Real Housewives of New Jersey and the non-reunion as we're calling it. Is it the end of the show as we know it? Another tangent - the meanness of some of the fan accounts is just a line too far. Is Teresa spiraling after seeing bad fan reactions to her saying that she didn't care about what Louie said about Marge and her son suffering? We have a theory about why Johhnie Aioli might actually be suing Shannon. And the RHONY trailer is out and we have some insight into some of the eyebrow-raising clips...

Is RHONJ coming back? We share the latest tea. We go deep on the season (or is it series?) finale of Real Housewives of New Jersey. Who's lying? Dolores or Marge? B has a theory about a scene being filmed later than portrayed. Our unpopular opinion on Jen Fessler peacing out on lunch. There were some great one-liners this episode. And, B's tangent - We need plumbers! 

Amanda shares a little about her week getting married and about her "oops" that may force cosmetic surgery a little sooner than she thought. Real Housewives of New Jersey has everyone up in arms, and even Andy's commenting about the show's future on his radio show. Get out your tiny violins, Cocktailers, we discuss "Teresa's Big Announcement" and we have thoughts about what Teresa might actually be stressed and upset about. Could it be that maybe everyone is right? Maybe both the ex and Luis are toxic? And we were fully entertained by Marge's shady flowers...we fully expect that card to be on display in Andy's clubhouse. We both enjoyed this week's episode of OC...and give Gina props for choosing her children, even if we don't believe that's the full reason Travis is moving out. Alexis' Johnny J press tour continues...but what in the name of Jesus' jugs made her think her big revelation would actually make him look better? Vicki's getting sued, and everyone else seems to be running with that news, but we have a little different outlook.

Real moms of Bravo Abby & Vanessa join B this week. Expect to here about F boys, OC insider scoop , Jersey insider scoop. And all of B and the ladies opinions on everything from VPR to the publicist. Yes, we get into it, we break it down. We laugh and we spill all the tea. It is not to be missed

First, a tribute to Shannen Doherty - we will miss her. She was unapologetically herself and we feel like we lost a friend this week. Tom Sandoval continues to villainize himself - he just filed a lawsuit against Ariana for "invading his right to privacy" through her "unauthorized and unpermitted access to, use of, and copying of the data on his cell phone and the distribution to Rachel Leviss". We have thoughts on that and his very strange 4am Instagram live with his girlfriend. We have breaking news on the Real Housewives of Orange County. And, a Cocktails and Gossip exclusive about the future of Real Housewives of New Jersey. We can't tell you all the details yet, but we share what we can and definitely encourage you to keep an eye on Cocktail Party next week for more.

Amanda just had an evening out doing an activity that B does NOT approve of.  And we go on a bit of a tangent about boating. Our merch store is almost ready - we can't wait to share it with you! And while things were slow on Bravo this week during the holiday, there was a lot going on offscreen. True to B's prediction, Lindsay Hubbard announced her pregnancy. And we share a little about why we haven't and won't share specifics or pictures of the new man in her life. Summer House is filming, and we've got info on the newbies - and who is vibing. And Hannah Berner came out this week telling the story of why she and Kyle actually had beef - turns out it had nothing to do with Luke. We each have theories about why Hannah is now telling that story, four years later. And if you haven't watched Ryan Serhant's new show Owning Manhattan on Netflix, jump on it. We both loved it and share our thoughts on what makes it so good - and of course, we've got opinions on the agents.

We are such big fans of Dana and are so excited to have her on the show this week. We get her real opinion on what procedures she thinks some of your favorite Bravo and Hollywood stars have gotten. She also answers our questions about getting facelifts in our 40s, and what kind of non-surgical beauty treatments give the best bang for their buck. And of course, we get her opinions on what's happening on shows like Real Housewives of New Jersey, Vandperpump Rules, and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

We both had late nights...so it's only fitting we start with a tangent about rosé. And as expected, New Jersey is top of the list to discuss this week, and we untangle the hairdresser drama and talk about how charity events work. Amanda finds some interesting data about Jen Aydin's charitable history. LVP is going to be back on our Bravo screens. With Kenya out on Real Housewives of Atlanta, who is going to take her place? Could the timing of Peter Thomas's tax announcement be a coincidence? And a theory about Gina from RHOC that we put together with Cocktailers on our last Zoom. Dubai sparkles...but we have a bone to pick with the show.

So much to discuss about Real Housewives of New Jersey this week - on and off screen. First, a tangent about Dolores' boyfriend Paulie's 14 year separation in which he still isn't divorced. This week's episode was classic Housewives and we loved it. Rumors are swirling that Carl and Danielle from Summer House are dating - we'll share what we know. We do have an exclusive on an upcoming RHONJ scene - and more bad news on Teresa, her husband Luis, and Vinivia, a company they are associated with. And last but not least, B has another prediction.

Lots of smoke around Kyle and Amanda and their marriage this week. Is there fire? Why didn't Amanda go to Italy with Kyle for Andrea's wedding? We'll tell you what we're hearing plus more on the history of their relationship and how that could weigh into today's situation. Thoughts on the Summer House reunion, and where things could be headed for this summer's filming of Summer House. We've got an exclusive about the cast and filming of Bravo's new show, Making it Manhattan. Luis Ruelas, husband of Teresa from RHONJ is tied to another business scandal. We looked into the company at the center of the scandal and found some pretty interesting imo. Teresa launched her pod this week - and we're in shock about what she said about her past. On RHONJ, Jackie gives the ultimate "pick me girl" energy and we. are. over. it. We're hearing all kinds of wild rumors about Real Housewives of Atlanta filming - and we're reserving judgement for one very specific reason.

We start out with a tangent about college hookups, going right into why Amanda is mad at Bravo. We need a reunion on the Valley! Here's why. We have an exclusive about Britney and Jax's house. B is vindicated now that Andy Cohen and People Magazine confirmed that there will be no RHONJ reunion. We've got some tea about where Jersey could possibly go next. And we are loving Real Housewives of Dubai. It's giving fashion, fun and the light housewife shade we all are craving. Our thoughts on the new housewife, Taleen, and the cast in general.

Who's surprised that Jax is out there dating Only Fans models? Not us. B has some exclusive Vanderpump Rules tea. Who do we think the VPR couple who temporarily rekindled was? We think there are some clues in the Peacock extended version. And our thoughts on the final installment of the VPR reunion. We feel like we got some clarity. Summer House: B has a theory on why Amanda is seemingly on Carl's side. And we have another theory about why Kyle called Craig a liar on WWHL. We have some exclusive RHONJ cast updates. And why is Teresa having lunch with the hairdresser who "exposed" her for allegedly having an affair when Joe was in prison a few years ago? We smell a setup and hope Danielle does too.

The Atlanta cast is finally set. Why is Sheree out? And yet again, all roads lead to Bravo as we tie a Housewife to the Drake/Kendrick Lamar battle. Kim Z is clickbaiting again. We’ve got some insider tea on the new “Making it in Manhattan” show. Carl and Lindsay - luggagegate and whose side we’re on. Kyle’s fight with Ciara and Paige - we have slightly differing opinions on the situation but both agree he’s acting like a man baby about it. We have an update on the Naomie Olindo (formerly of Southern Charm) lawsuit - it’s still not over, and it’s not looking great for Naomie. B’s got some insider info on Austen and Craig’s spat. 

First, a genuine apology to Jen Armstrong, formerly of RHOC and to Jen Pedranti, currently on RHOC. We mixed up last names, and when we meant to refer to Jen Pedranti, we accidentally called her Jen Armstrong. No shade was meant. But just because we messed up Jen P's name, doesn't mean we're not going to share the latest on her fiance's involvement in the Ohtani theft/gambling scandal. @bravoandcocktails_ Instagram has been in the news - thanks to a pic we got from a Cocktailer that was then shared and credited to the B&C IG by TMZ - of Dorit and PK at dinner shortly after their separation announcement. We have a hot take on Jenn Fessler's convo with Teresa. B's question for Amanda - if *this one thing* changed about John Fuda, would we all have a different opinion about him? The VPR reunion aired, and we've got different opinions about the Lala vs. Katie convo. 

Cocktailers, thank you for listening to Cocktails and Gossip! We might change our minds about shows and Bravolebs on the daily, but you know what we don't change our minds about? Gossip.

We've got two different sets of breaking news this week. We start out with the story about Ryan Boyajian, fiance to Jen Armstrong of the Real Housewives of Orange County. He has been named as an associate to the bookie in the gambling and theft case of Shohei Ohtani, the LA Dodger, and his interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara, who has been accused of stealing more than $16 million from Ohtani and wiring the money for his gambling to Ryan Boyajian. What did Tamra Judge say about this? You'll hear it here. Jersey is leaving us feeling a little dirty, now that we know about what's been going on behind the scenes (allegedly) with members of the RHONJ cast paying and giving gifts to fan accounts in return for the fan accounts trashing their cast rivals. Vanderpump Rules' season finale felt a little like a series finale. But we know it's not - the ratings are just too good to end the show. Did production give Sandoval a redemption arc? We have differing opinions. What should Lala do next? And, as we're discussing a poll that B put up on @bravoandcocktails_ , we get some breaking news from Dorit and PK.

What happened to episode 103? And today, we had a whole different WTF... Michelle and Jesse from the Valley have both gone public with new love interests. We've got a lot of info on Jesse's new gf – and she has a fascinating back story that we get into. We disagree about Jax's real motivations for telling Brittany he doesn't want a child, but we agree that everyone's scapegoating on Kristen and she's getting all the blame for something most of the folks on The Valley are doing too. Did you guys catch the weird two refrigerator thing in Kristen's apartment? Ariana is playing chess and Brock is playing checkers - more on what greyrocking is. VPR is pausing production this summer - here's why (according to our sources) and who is spiraling?

Monday was one of the wildest days in the Bravoverse that we can remember. Firings, divorce news, pregnancy announcements. Is Nneka actually not coming back to Potomac? B has an Atlanta casting update. The Valley is sending us. We love it. Kristen is an empath? Lol. We have the tea on who the rumored director that Michelle Lally was hanging out with. We have a lot more info on Raquel Chevremont, the new RHONY Reboot cast member. And of course, Cocktailers knew there was trouble in paradise for Alexia and Todd's marriage. Is it really all that shocking that he filed for divorce? Or could that have been a strategic move? James and Ally have an emotional chat - we've got a unique viewpoint about that chat. And would anyone, even Schwartz buy a house with Tom Sandoval? B's got a prediction about Scheana and Brock's marriage...

Larry from @Bravobygays on Instagram and the Bravo by Gays podcast is here! We get INTO it about Vanderpump Rules - starting with Jo. We read the transcript of her interview on Rachel's Gone Rogue - is she a victim of Tom Shwartz's gaslighting? Were they actually dating last summer? Larry's thoughts on the Katie/Tori/Schwartz love triangle. What is actually going on with this Lala/Ariana feud? We have theories. What show does Larry think is Must-See-TV? Thoughts on Jax and Brittany - are they broken up for good? Summer House: We discuss Danielle and Paige; Why we think Paige is setting a great example for people (not just women) in relationships everywhere; Our real opinions on the Summer House newbies; What's going on with Kyle and Amanda?

We're getting tips and seeing video that Jax already has one foot out of his marriage. A complete 180 from where he was a year ago? On the Valley, Kristen drops a bomb about another castmate, but then seems shocked at the backlash. We have some thoughts and observations about VPR that we're not seeing anywhere else. What is B's beef with Tom Schwartz about? And, in honor of our 100th episode, we answer Cocktailer questions. We answer Cocktailer questions, such as: What's the craziest DM you have gotten? How did the account start? What is our favorite part of doing the podcast? THANK YOU Cocktailers for coming on this podcast journey with us! We wouldn't be here without you. Cheers to you!

Another wild week in March. How much more can we take? Monday's news about P Diddy's homes being raided by Homeland Security and his sons being cuffed, while he was allegedly flying around the islands on a private jet. Real Housewives of Potomac has us talking - the finale was definitely worth watching. There's a physical fight at the GNA party. And Mia and Gordon are getting divorced: Mia's been having an affair, and she and Gordon aren't sure whether their son is Gordon's or Mia's on-and-off affair partner. So this is going to be *quite* the reunion. We have an interesting theory on what might actually be behind Simon Guobadia's recent call to the police. Miami filming is delayed - we've got some thoughts on why. Why are we finding out so much more about Kyle and Mauricio's separation on Buying Beverly Hills? Last but not least, congrats to Ariana from VPR on the purchase of her new house. A quick update on where things stand with her house battle with Tom.

Cocktailers won't be surprised to hear Marcus and Larsa are broken up (AGAIN). We've got some exclusive tea from a source on why. And – why can't Larsa just show some vulnerability for once? Watching Summer House, we're seeing the precursors to Carl and Lindsay's breakup. Cocktailers are seeing it play out much like the tea we shared - but we can't help but wonder, did Lindsay ever see the writing on the wall? Or was she so focused on winning each argument and on the wedding that she couldn't see what literally every other housemate saw regarding her relationship? And we've got a Cocktail Party exclusive on where Carl's head was at during the end of the summer when he approached Lindsay about the breakup. And last but not least, we both loved The Valley premiere and are hooked. Turns out one of the couples hasn't just broken up, but one of the new stars of the show has already moved on to a new relationship. 

* Note * This podcast was recorded before the news of Princess Kate's cancer broke on 3/22/24, and we discussed theories regarding her whereabouts, so we have removed that section of the podcast.

Trishelle Cannatella from Traitors is here! We could have talked to her all day. She fills us in on her trip to NYC: WWHL and watching/meeting Ariana at Chicago on Broadway. Of course we have all the questions about Traitors - behind the scenes, her real thoughts on the cast, and her game strategy. We discuss five different theories on what's really happening with Princess Kate, and Trishelle weights in. Porsha and Simon's divorce keeps getting weirder - we share some exclusive tea.

Brittany and Jax are separated. Here's why we don't think it's just a PR ploy to support their upcoming VPR spin-off, The Valley. Jax blames "communication issues", but of course we have some tea on what we're hearing could actually be the cause of the split. Did Luann bag herself a french billionaire? Erin Lichy's Hamptons home is renting for how much per month this summer? Summer House: We're watching the demise of Lindsay and Carl's relationship, and we've gotta say, Carl is being vindicated so far. Is Kyle an island among the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast? And is that why Kathy is at the reunion? The Real Housewives of New Jersey Trailer is out - and despite what we know about the divided cast, it looks like we're in for a good season.

Have things ever been this chaotic in the Bravoverse? Lawsuits. Multiple Breakups. Mortal enemies joining forces. There's so much to talk about. Rachel Leviss files a revenge porn lawsuit against Tom and Ariana. Then Jax and Brittany announce their separation - we have exclusive tea. Porsha files for divorce against her husband of one year, Simon Guobadia. B did a deep dive on his history of brushes with the law - let's just say there's a lot there. House of Villains theory. Teresa and Kim D have reunited and brokered peace - we've got thoughts on what could be going on behind the scenes. Leah McSweeney sues Bravo and also throws out some pretty crazy allegations. And the Wendy Williams documentary is causing a lot of talk. It's heartbreaking. Our thoughts are with her and we hope this documentary sheds light on her plight.

Larsa from RHOM interrupted our Super Bowl watch parties to let the world know she and Marcus had broken up. In her own thinly veiled way, of course. BUT, before any of the dust settled, they're seen together four days later on Valentine's Day. We have been getting lots of tea on this relationship since last year - so, since the subject came up, we share the exclusive Cocktail Party posts. We share our thoughts on couples who go through each other's phones. Porsha is back on ATL and it's got us looking forward to RHOA after a season that could only be described as "mid". We share our other RHOA casting tea, as well. While we're liking the VPR season and view into the aftermath of Scandoval, we can't help but wonder - is this the end of the road for VPR? Sandoval continues on his non-apology tour with a chat with LVP that devolves quickly. Just not a good look.

Hot tea incoming on a Real Housewives of New Jersey and her husband fighting with someone in their inner circle IN PUBLIC - and some Instagram unfollowing. B's got a prediction about Teresa. Vanderpump Rules and Beverly Hills both gave us great reminders that partners need to have the sometimes hard financial discussions. Rachel Leviss was seen in NYC - what was she up to? B has an epiphany about Kyle and Dorit's friendship - Cocktailers, do you guys agree? And this week, we saw a public spat between some of our favorite RHONY Legacy ladies and some of the current Reboot housewives.

This week's Grammy's award show was arguably the best ever. We felt like we had to go off our usual Housewives beat to unpack a few of the big moments with you. And we have some exclusive Cocktail Party tea to share with you about one of the night's biggest winners. Kandi is leaving RHOA, and we're hoping it's just a pause. We'll share what we're hearing about the rest of the cast. Miami is still extra spicy in Mexico - we've got thoughts on the Kiki/Lisa fight...and the ladies really bring it with the fashion.

Last week, we broke the story about Luann from RHONY and Joe from Southern Hospitality and their hookup literally as B was getting information from sources. We have updates for you on that story, including one from a Cocktailer who spoke to Joe after the incident. And, now that we've seen their episode of WWHL, the pieces of the puzzle fall in place. This week, we got the VPR premiere plus an almost two-hour long episode of the Viall Files podcast with both of the Toms. Spoiler alert: Tom Sandoval hasn't learned anything from the Scandoval experience. We have a Cocktailer real estate law expert who writes in to explain some of the details of what might be happening with the sale of Tom and Ariana's house and why it's more complicated because they weren't married.

The love triangle we didn't realize we all needed - Joey Bottles, Luann and Danielle. LOL. B's got the tea, and Amanda is out of town, so she's hearing it for the first time. Get the exclusive details here. Alexis posted a hilariously cringey slide show. Kyle and Mauricio continue to be the ringleaders in this crazy media circus. Why are Dorit and Kyle on such bad terms, anyway? And we have a little love note for why we love Miami - plus some tea on casting for next season.

B tells us about going to see Craig and Austen at Pillows and Beer - and meeting Austen and Craig. We have some exclusive tea about Monica from Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Seems like there are a lot more skeletons in her closet than she led us to think. Is Real Housewives of New Orleans (RONO, as Amanda coins it) going to be coming to our screens? And who are we hearing might be cast in it? Andy, please say it ain't so that some of our favorite shows are going on pause for – THE ENTIRE YEAR of 2024 – we are crying. And not the laughing crying. We just saw the promo for the new VPR spinoff, The Valley - here's what we think. And, Cocktailers, if you're not watching Traitors on Peacock, you might want to give it a try. We'll tell you why we're loving it.

Tasha from @thepopastrologist is here to talk all things Bravolebs and astrology. We cover a whole lot in this week's pod, including:

What is she seeing in Lindsay Hubbard's chart, and what could be contributing to her breakup with Carl?

What the heck is going on with Monica from Salt Lake City?

Well, the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City finale was shocking - but Cocktailers knew what to expect :) We discuss the finale and all the tea we've gotten from sources plus we dissect what Monica herself had to say on her Instagram Live. And Amanda and B record together IN PERSON for the first time ever. We may or may have been drinking a little Prosecco, too.

B and Amanda recap their family holidays and then get right into Mauricio in Aspen. Mauricio's lawsuits are over - Amanda recaps the case. And does Morgan Wade have a boyfriend? Eminem vs. Housewives: Who's the Shadiest of them all? And we talk through some of your most-commented posts from BravoandCocktails.com and from Cocktail Party. Happy New Year, Cocktailers! A big cheers to each and every one of you for being a part of our community!

Happy Holidays, Cocktailers! We start out this episode talking about holiday plans, including what the heck Yorkshire Pudding is...We share our selfie counts – plus B's got a theory on how selfie counts could be a great casting tool. There's a lot of chatter about SLC - we share all the theories plus the tea on what Heather is freaking out about in Bermuda. Our RHONY Legacy ladies are in St. Barth's and we don't care if we're the eagles or the pigeons, we are eating up these episodes. Amanda did a little research on Kelly Bensimon's "It's complicated" relationship. Our source keeps sending us hot Alexis and John tea – and of course we're sharing it with you. And we wrap the show with some Winter House/Summer House tea - and B's got some great spinoff ideas - Bravo, are you listening?

One of this week's plot points on Winter House centered on a blind from Cocktail Party - are we the drama? The Vanderpump Rules trailer really brought it - we break down some of the shocking previews. What does schadenfreude mean? B and Amanda go on a tangent about spray tans. Who's really behind the DMs on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City? We share the email that was previously posted only in Cocktail Party. And was there another hookup in the Southern Charm crew that's been kept a secret? Well, we got a blind about it and of course we share it with you.

We've got more exclusive Real Housewives of Orange County tea. Plus, a theory on why Tamra and Shannon aren't speaking. Dave Quinn did an official People magazine piece on Alexis and John Janssen's (now confirmed) relationship. Should Shannon walk away from OC? Next up, there was a rumor that caught fire this week about Teddi Mellencamp getting fired from the podcast she does with Tamra Judge. We dug into it and where the rumor came from - this mini deep-dive takes some twists and turns that you'll want to hear about. Somehow, all roads really do lead to Bravo. What does it mean to be an executive producer on a podcast? Seriously, we would like someone to explain what it means, because Tamra and Teddi are executive producing Jen Fessler and Jackie Goldschneider's new pod, and Bethenny is executive producing Rachel Leviss' new pod. The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City are now in Bermuda, and we know from the flashback in episode 1 of this season that something big is about to go down.

This week, we have Brooke Siffrinn, Comedian and award-winning Co-Host of Even the Rich podcast and and Rich and Daily podcast. She jumps right into the Beverly Hills tea with us. Are Morgan and Kyle more than friends? We all share our opinions. And we share an exclusive email we got on the subject. In Beverly Hills, dinner parties are where sh!t goes down, just like sprinter vans are where the drama happens in Salt Lake City and Miami. Sutton and Kyle continue to go at it - but not the way Kyle wants it to go. Is Mauricio calling Kyle Lapin or Lovebean? We legit can't tell and Cocktailers, we need you to set us straight. PK's got appeal, and we nail down what it is. We have some tea about the OC you're not going to want to miss.

We are so excited to have Lauren from @BigBlondeHair on Instagram here this week! She's got hot takes on our favorite Bravoleb fashion coming in hot off of Bravocon. Things are messy in the OC - and it seems that Alexis is really reaching for that orange...perhaps by dating the new Slade Smiley of Orange County. We have gotten a couple emails this week hinting that one of our all-time favorite Housewives may be coming back to Bravo. Does the Bethenny Clause (the rumored clause that goes into Bravoleb contracts saying that Bravo gets a percentage of revenue from the businesses that Bravolebs promote onscreen) have an affect on who stays and who goes when it comes to casting decisions? Carl and Lindsay from Summer House were originally scheduled to get married last weekend - before Carl called it off, of course. Who went to Mexico anyway? And B and Amanda have a rare "hard disagree" situation regarding whether Sharon, Carl's mom should have gone - see where each of them falls on the discussion.

We are so happy to welcome our guest, Ally from @bravo_after_thoughts_ this week! She's back from Bravocon and is ready to debrief on all of the fun and to spill some eyewitness tea. We get Ally's thoughts on Kyle and Mauricio, PK and Dorit, and why she thinks Sutton was a great casting decision on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Miami continues to be FYAH and did Larsa commit a HIPAA violation? We have a little theory about Alexia and Todd's relationship. Ally's got thoughts on the Juan Dixon of it all and we speculate on the power dynamic in his relationship with Robyn. Could this be Southern Charm's best season yet? Besides the Taylor/Shep/Olivia/Austen love quadrangle, B's got some opinions about Taylor and we want to hear from you - do you agree? Happy Thanksgiving to the Cocktailers!

Sooooo much Bravocon to discuss, we can’t even get through it all. What’s the plan for the next Bravocon? Who was seen cozying up? Who was seen laughing together? What beef got started or ended there? Who do we think should have a threesome? And a tangent about microdosing and macrodosing…

This week our cup is overflowing with Bravo content to discuss. And it's Bravocon weekend! Who ran smack into each other at the airport although they took great effort to take different flights? Real Housewives of Miami premiered and it was on fire just like their theme song. Alexia is on her apology tour, and we discuss what might be causing her sudden change in behavior. And it looks like Todd might have some more apologizing to do - but this time, to his own wife. We have some exclusive tea about the behind the scenes causes of an on-camera RHOM fight. We both read the Vanity Fair article, and didn't find anything new there...looks like the Reality Reckoning just turned into the Ramona Reckoning. Beverly Hills is bringing us the marital tension between Mauricio and Kyle and PK and Dorit...and we have a discussion about the difference between "taking the lead" vs "taking over". Thoughts on the Salt Lake City, including which side we're each on between Monica and her mother. And finally, Lindsay speaks out on her breakup with Carl - we have a few opinions, of course.

Holy moly, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills came out of the gate WILD with the first episode and Kyle and Teddi on Watch What Happens Live and we are here for it. Are PK and Dorit really on the rocks? We've got tea from an inside source. And Kyle and Mauricio's excruciating conversation goes right in to Kyle confirming on WWHL that she and Mauricio are separated, living in the same house but separate bedrooms and that she is unhappy about the recent photos of Mauricio and his Dancing with the Stars partner and costar holding hands. B has a theory about Mauricio and his costar. Winter House kicked off this week too, and we are loving it. Interesting timing from Kory being in a "situationship" to him being in a committed relationship. And Lisa wins a legal battle in her divorce with Lenny - and Lenny is called out for "abuse of judicial resources" over some houseplants and throw pillows. Thank you, Cocktailers for helping us get to a million downloads! We're celebrating with a giveaway. Check out the @bravoandcocktails_ and @cocktailsandgossip Instagram accounts for details.

Celebrity real estate is taking up a lot of real estate in our heads and inboxes this week - we've got receipts. Somehow, right off the bat, we start with a tangent about glow sticks for your mouth. Kim and Kroy had the seventh police call and visit to their home. For the sake of the kids, when will this stop? Congratulations to Tinsley Mortimer for getting engaged! Guess who her housewife neighbor is? We have all the casting tea on the next season of RHOC. And the Real Housewives of Potomac rumor that you DIDN'T hear us report on - we'll tell you why. The RHONY reboot had its finale and we have some mixed feelings about it. B has a theory: did the RHONY wives make a pact? This week's episode of RHOSLC was chaotic to say the least. We've got thoughts about the relationship between new Wife Monica and her mother LD, plus we read her mother's latest Instagram statement.

We continue to have whiplash when it comes to the Maurico and Kyle separation. This week, we see Mauricio's mom post a picture of herself, her ex husband (Mau's dad), Mau, and a dark haired woman who is rumored to be Mauricio's love interest. We can't help but wonder - with all of this press, all of the paparazzi pictures, all of the social media posts and statements, is this all just an epic, intricate, and blatant trolling situation? We've got an email about THAT Vanderpump Rules video. What does Juicy Joe think about his girls starring in Shein's holiday video? RHONJ is still filming, and has us saying, "What are you doing here without Dorinda?" based on some behind the scenes tea...Cocktailers are not shocked to hear about Taylor sending nude pics to Whitney, because we knew about their hookup earlier this year. Plus, a PSA about the dangers of sexting....

74. Exclusive Lenny Tea; What RHOSLC Cliffhanger is Actually About; RHONY Getting a New Appleholder

We got exclusive info from a source about Lenny from Real Housewives of Miami. But the plot thickens, as we share some other information about the status of his house on Star Island. All in the same week, we get the RHOM trailer - it gave us chills. On Salt Lake City, the first episode started with the "shocking" cliffhanger when we see Heather kick the cameras and producers out of her hotel room - we have tea about what it's actually about. There are a lot of rumors flying around about Sai from RHONY - and a Cocktailer did some footwork and sent us some very interesting information about the early days of her marriage, funny enough, coming from Sai herself in a VLOG from a few years back. We're hearing the name of a new castmember for the next season of RHONY...and who she might be replacing. And Real Housewives of Orange County's first reunion episode aired this week - not much that's all that shocking happened...but we've got opinions...

We've got some exclusive tea about Kyle and Mauricio from a source that you won't hear anywhere else. You might have heard that Jen and Danielle got in a physical fight in Jersey at Teresa's party - but we've got details on why it all went down. And the emails have been pouring in about Jersey - including one possible scenario that is not getting the best reactions from Cocktailers...Is Jenna Lyons coming back for season two of the RHONY Reboot? The Ubah vs. Erin fight - whose side are we on? Salt Lake City continues to bring it. Housewives in drag? Yes please. There are a few new cast members on Southern Charm, and of course, we've got opinions.

Shannon Storms Beador was arrested for DUI and hit and run. With her dog. We discuss the fallout, videos, friends' statements and rumors surrounding the event. Are we ready for this season of Real Housewives of Orange County to wrap up? One of us is, one isn't. Is Tamra taking it too far by going after Jen's relationship in every scene? Spoiler alert - we think she needs to leave poor Jen alone. Traitors - whew! The casting rumors have been wild but we have a confirmed cast. Real Housewives of Salt Lake City was pure comedy gold this week. We've got a dramatic reading of Mary's amazing one-liners and of Meredith's rich drunk British woman cosplay...Speaking of Meredith's "YOU CAN LEAVE" moment, what are Angie and Meredith ACTUALLY fighting about? There's something more going on. There's so much awkwardness and very little charm on the Southern Charm premiere. And we dig some HOT tea out of the Cocktail Party vault from early last year. 

PSA: Drinking and driving is the #1 cause of death on our roadways. It is NEVER OK to drink and drive. For more statistics and information on how this tragedy can be stopped, go to madd.org

The Summer House breakup continues to be messy. Carl's email to wedding guests is "leaked" to People Magazine, and we break it down. Is he accepting fault for calling the wedding off? Then, Lindsay shares a statement on Instagram...saying she is "humiliated" and has "no answers or closure on why". Ouch. Southern Charm is premiering this week, and is there a couple in trouble in Charleston? Plus we have an update on Naomie Olindo's court case. Real Housewives of Salt Lake City continues to be a holy mess, in the best way. And we have some behind the scenes tea on Mauricio, Kyle and Dancing with the Stars, plus some theories on what the heck could actually be going on.

We share alllll the details, all the tea, all the DMs that we have on Lindsay and Carl’s breakup. We have the timeline, plus what’s happened since the breakup was filmed. Salt Lake City’s divine premiere: Mary returns, New housewife Monica brings the mess, and are we really fighting over bathtub DNA?

Hours before we sat down to record, we got some exclusive tea about Real Housewives of Atlanta and its future. We've been getting (and sharing) emails about this topic all summer, but today's tea is hot and straight from a source. The finale popped off and there's lots to discuss there. We have a theory about how some of the RHONY women might have been feeling during filming...and how that could affect their behavior. Brynn's life sounds like a movie. And Just Like That season 2 finale: pause at the end if you haven't watched. What we liked...and what we didn't.

We do a quick touch on Bethenny's "Post-Rachel update" pod as well as a few of the other reaction pods from Lala and Stassi. OC: Is John Jansen a fame sniffer? What is Shannon's motivation for protecting the relationship at seemingly all costs? Will there be repercussions from her latest rant about Gina? We love RHONY and now that we're getting to know the women a bit better, we've got fresh opinions. Justice for Jessel – why we think she's really giving Prime Housewife energy. The deep seated root to Brynn's flirting; is Sai really giving us everything, or is she setting the stage and keeping up her guard? And then, of course, we've got some good tangents for you this week on: breast exams, mistakes we made in our 20s, dating, and postpartum bodies.

We're back from vacation and ready to rant. Bethenny Frankel has Rachel Leviss, fresh out of treatment, on her podcast to tell her side of the story. We recap and react to parts 1 and 2. What do we think Bethenny's real motivation is with this Reality TV Reckoning? And we sprinkled in a few tangents on drug store makeup, RHOC and the RHONY reboot.

Mercedes Javid from Shahs of Sunset is here to spill tea with us – and she's as unfiltered and genuine as always. Who is she still in touch with? What are her thoughts on Scandoval when she knows all of the cast so well? What show does she currently love most on Bravo? And we get an interesting perspective from her about the possible reality show unionization. 

Her husband, Tommy Feight, wrote a children's book called The Best Hug In The World. Buy it now at https://www.thebesthugintheworld.com/

Lenny of RHOM can now proudly say he has a wife and a fiance. We have theories about Lenny's proposal. Kyle and Mauricio (and Morgan Wade) continue to be very public, but very silent. Did Sam stand by her man and opt out of Summer House? Vicki is back to whoop it up - and we've got thoughts about her return.

We have the most fun chatting with Meghan King from The Real Housewives of Orange County on this week's pod! Meghan shares her behind the scenes perspective on her time from RHOC and we get to hear more about the Instagram beef that is happening with Jennifer Aydin. We were shocked to hear how and when Meghan first thought something was off about Brooks and his cancer story. And we get to hear about what Meghan is up to since filming plus the best advice about sex that she's heard from all the various experts on her podcast. 

Don't miss Meghan's upcoming Daytreat on August 24 - get your tickets here: https://www.gaiahavenexperience.com/

The anxiously awaited RHONY Reboot is finally here, and we're here for it. We've got a little tea on the cast ready for you. And of course, Bethenny and Jill can't let them have the spotlight to themselves - but we do love the reunion. More celebrity divorces, but Cocktailers have known about them for a while. Vanderpump Rules is filming in Tahoe - we have some scoop on what's going on behind the scenes, plus something else is brewing with some of the OG Sur-vers. And what's in the water in Jersey? Lots happening there with casting - we've got tea.

It's an episode full of exclusives. First of all, we spend a little more time breaking down the Kyle and Mauricio separation - something just isn't adding up. And we've got exclusive tea from someone who is connected to them. Separately, is there a rift in Kyle and Dorit's friendship? We've got to wonder - here's why. B called it from day 1 about Kim and Kroy. And the timing can't be ignored - they get back together the day she is seen again on RHOA? Hmmmm. Amanda is happy we have some guys joining the cast of Summer House. Let's hope this means Couple House no more. We've got a few exclusives on the Summer House cast - a few of them are pretty surprising. We wrap with some exclusive Vanderpump Rules tea plus some speculation on how that's all going to work.

We're thrilled to have Ally from @Bravo_After_Thoughts on the pod this week! And what a week it's been. Literally right after we recorded last week, the whispers get louder and louder about Kyle and Mauricio until we get the People confirmation that they are separating, quickly followed by a "we aren't divorcing and ask for your privacy" statement on Instagram. So what's going on? Does our theory about why Bravo would make that announcement add up? We go through the Easter eggs and the tea we have been sent over the months, including some new tea that feeds into a theory we have about what comes next for Kyle. And we've got some exclusive Summer House tea, including who is on the full-time cast, and will there be some new men on the show? Thank you guys for listening to Cocktails and Gossip - we are so humbled and honored to be listed as Screenrant's #1 Reality TV Gossip podcast.

We all see something a Bravoleb wears on camera and wonder where to buy it. Thank goodness for Lauren from @BigBlondeHair - she does the WORK to figure it out and share with all of us! Today, we've got her on the pod and we'll be talking smash or pass when it comes to Housewife and Bravolebrity fashion, plus how she got her start with bigblondehair.com, her blog. Do the Housewives buy all those clothes, and what do they do with those clothes after they wear them? And we've got some tea on what we're hearing about what's going on with some of the Beverly Hills ladies...

We can't help ourselves with the orange pun. Because we're so glad Real Housewives of Orange County and Tamra are back! Now that we have a few episodes under our belts, we want to talk about our thoughts on the new housewife, Jen, plus our returning favorite orange holders. And of course, we've got Orange flavored tea for you - lots of it. We've got our ears to the ground in Beverly Hills and in New York...and some gossip you're not hearing anywhere else. Plus a tangent: B and Amanda talk Ben vs Matt, Ryan vs Ryan and you'll hear more about laminated lists...

It's a great week, because have Larry of Bravo by Gays guesting on the show with us! He's got some news for us...And we talk about what we're hearing from the RHONY Legacy Ultimate Girls' Trip. Kim and Kroy's divorce is taking an even nastier turn - why we think things have hit the point of no return. What's going on with Real Housewives of Atlanta this season? The explosive, dark, and threaten-y final reunion episode of Real Housewives of New Jersey - whoa. What's in all those manila envelopes?

What's next for Summer House? Jersey's Jaqueline and Jackie exchange some pretty shocking text messages. Jersey finale - did Louie hire someone to call Teresa's castmate's family members? Danielle - is she all bark and no bite? The Vanderpump Rules bombshell revelation...what we really think was behind it and Raquel's "throuple" suggestion. A Cocktailer weighs in with her professional opinion on Raquel and what might be causing her to act the way she does. Schwartz just keeps digging himself a deeper hole and making some weird faces while he does it. We have word of a new VPR spinoff - and it's something we haven't discussed before. Real Housewives of Orange County is back and we're ready for some fun and sun.

This week, we go a little deeper on Bravolebrity relationships and divorces with Michelle Dempsey-Multack, a divorce and co-parenting expert. Michelle gives us some great insight into some of the big Bravolebrity divorces and relationships in the news, and stays to talk about the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion with us. Michelle spills the tea on which RHONJ husband is not her favorite, the new Housewives, and what she really thinks about Teresa and Louie and whether they’ll go the distance.

The conversation between Lindsay and Danielle…it was brutal, no other word for it. Our thoughts on Mya hiding her breakup… The RHONJ wedding special episode was very highly watched - but a little boring. B educates Amanda on the customs of NY and NJ weddings - Amanda has offered herself as a guest to experience a Venetian Hour. What we’re hearing about the RHONJ next season cast...there’s talk of demotions and of people being put on pause. The VPR reunion was great tv. We have started a list of James’ greatest hits. He had us cry laughing this week. Is Tom Schwartz almost as bad as Tom Sandoval? And what’s the big reveal in the reunion? We’ve got some tea for you. Last but not least, the WILD bank statement from Kroy’s divorce motion against Kim.

VPR - all we can say is wow. So many moments that were just jaw dropping. And what is the VPR producer talking about when he says there’s more to be revealed after watching all three parts of the reunion? We have tea. Will there be any castaways on the boat to Scary Island? We share what we know. And the Jersey finale - or should we say, brawl? And why did Louie say he hired a PI to get info on all the ladies…but then Teresa backed off?

We've been following the sad news about Kim Zolciak Biermann and Kroy Biermann's foreclosure. Sadly the story gets worse, with a hefty IRS bill and now they've both filed for divorce. We ave some more details about Kim and Kroy's divorce–you've been hearing from us first on this topic.  We're so happy to see the peaches of Real Housewives of Atlanta back on our screens. We've got a feisty new Housewife and some ongoing drama between previous wives, plus some new men in the lives of two of our favorites. It's shaping up to be a good season. We are loving the Summer House Martha's Vineyard cast - we have a little tea on one of the castmates and her famous actor ex. Louie went off the deep end on this week's Real Housewives of New Jersey - this is feeling like more than just wedding stress. Are these Louie's true colors? And Louie has a brother? How come we never hear about him? And we're hearing from behind the scenes sources that there's drama within the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Alliances seem to be shifting yet again.

New York, New York, we’ve got both reboot and legacy news, including a RHONY Legacy exclusive. Why we think the reboot could be a hallmark for the next generation of Bravo. When Bravolebs go to other networks…Jersey was a doozy and got us in our feelings - all of the feelings. What we know about Raquel’s account getting hacked (spoiler alert, interesting timing on that announcement) and our theory about Ariana’s new brand deal.

So much buzz about the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion. And we have some exclusive tea from an eyewitness. And more exclusive tea about some friction between the Catanias and Teresa/Louie. Who got “tossed like a whore in a brothel” during the show? We have an update for you on the Lisa Hochstein divorce. We covered her prenup in a deep dive on episode 38 and based on what the judge in the case just ordered through temporary orders, Lisa got a win. Our theory about why the Real Housewives of Orange County trailer was held up is seeming to check out. Real Housewives of Atlanta hasn’t begun yet, but the drama has and we are loving it.

This is our 50th episode of Cocktails and Gossip! A huge thank you to our listeners and community. As a thank you, we have an announcement to make about the future of the podcast…We discuss a few friendship fallouts. Which housewife in Miami is threatening not to film with another? RHONJ breaks the “kids are off limits” rule…and another week, another few VPR #Scandoval updates for you…

Bravocon is viva-ing Las Vegas, but Cocktailers have known this. Maybe the Toms need a little break from the media, because now Sandoval’s podcast appearance was a bigger dumpster fier than Schwartz’s. Let us count the ways that Sandoval is a master gaslighter. And Scandoval is causing a Bravolebrity renaissance of sorts. Summer House couple tea. Finally a more lighthearted Real Housewives of New Jersey episode. Send us your Bravo limericks…

Tom Schwartz’ dumpster fire of a WWHL appearance: From the weight cuffs he wore, to the admission that he knew about the affair since last August, to the plea to all of us to give Sandoval a hug. Wow, just wow. B and Amanda get into a conversation about what Tom Schwartz should have done - should he have told someone? When? How? And is he smarter than he plays on tv? There’s a new lawsuit that alleges more cheating involving people we’ve seen on VPR and RHOBH. And we’re hearing there’s a new reality show brewing involving people from lots of different reality tv shows. We dissect a couple of the most memorable moments from this week’s Real Housewives of New Jersey. And does Bravo use social media as a focus group? We think so - and we talk about this week’s Bravo article about Lindsay Hubbard wanting to be a Housewife as the perfect example.

First it was laundry, now it’s nails; we broke a picture of Juan out with the same woman again. Another RHOA divorce - this time from Eva Marcille, and with an interesting twist. We have opinions on Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip in Thailand. PMDD is no excuse for being an a-hole. Whitney is growing on B but Heather is losing both of our respect. Porsha is reminding us why we loved her to start with. In RHOBH news, Brandi is messy as usual, and lots of housewives are making cameos on the show. What we’re hearing about the drama (or lack of it) this season. A fight almost got physical at the Vanderpump Rules reunion and we have the tea on who it was… And we wrap with a little tidbit about who Tom Schwartz fell for on Winter House. 

Rumor has it the RHON legacy ladies returning to Scary Island? Why this makes sense to us, and who we’re hearing is coming. Who’s going to Vegas in November? We’re not sick of Scandoval yet - and here’s why. Inside info about how Rachelle’s working a PR angle; and is any amount of mean girl behavior permissible now that we know what we know, or is there a line? We see through the “Katie won’t sell back her hotel room” storyline. And on to Real Housewives of New Jersey - props to Jen Aydin and Bill for putting themselves out there with their therapy sessions. Why we think their conflict is relatable… And, we’ve got a “glass houses” situation with Jackie and Danielle - it’s just not making sense to us.

Is Taylor from Southern Charm getting iced out? The Scandoval restraining order - no way Bravo is going to let that stop us Bravo fans from getting the reckoning we all deserve. We have a theory about production that no one is talking about…Bravo is putting the fruit in the refrigerator until summer. We’ve got the OC tea. Summer House - where does Lindsay go from here?

We loved doing this episode with Kate Casey, host of the podcast, Reality Life with Kate Casey. We got her unique takes and perspectives on #Scandoval, Real Housewives of New Jersey, and Summer House. We dig deep - is there a redemption arc for Tom and/or Raquel? Where does Kate think the real drama may be happening on Real Housewives of New Jersey? We predict next steps for some of our favorite Summer House reality stars, Lindsay and Kyle.

NOTE: This podcast was recorded before the Scandoval happened. If you want to hear our take on Scandoval, we recorded two emergency podcasts on that Friday night. They're available to Cocktail Party members, and you can join by going to bravoandcocktails.com/join *

We’re coming in hot - off joining Melissa Gorga on her  On Display podcast. She was a class act and we clear up the mystery about whether or not we are on Melissa's payroll. Danielle and Lindsay’s feud is heating up - is the door going to close forever on their friendship? Cocktailers knew ages ago about the love triangle between Danielle, Gabby and the mystery man … We go on a bit of a tangent on what New York metrosexual really means. We’ve got a pile of embarrassing househusbands to roast this week. We’ve got the Winter House cast - and theories about who’s going to hit it off…and who won’t. Adriana vs Alexia - do we feel sorry for Adriana? And where did this Raquelle who tells Katie that she wanted to make out with her ex-husband even come from?

B*tch Eating Crackers - an Urban Dictionary term that we learned and we’re running with it this week. Summer House - we have different (but not opposite) takes on the Kyle and Carl situation. Details from the Brooklyn Beckham and Nicole Peltz wedding are coming out – and the tea we got on the site last year is making a lot more sense. Real Housewives of New Jersey is keeping our interest. The Teresa/Louie/Melissa/Joe battle is brewing - and Teresa’s kids have now entered the chat. And, the Real Housewives of Potomac reunion had some very interesting moments. We have some insight on what Mia was trying to explain - as well as some tea on what Gizelle was trying to hint at during the reunion.

There is sad news on the Kim Zolciak Biermann house foreclosure situation. New Jersey is back and it’s definitely with a bite. The Melissa/Teresa drama continues - whose side are B and Amanda on? You might be surprised… Amanda watched the RHONJ premiere with her mom and realized the RHONJ world is truly a telenovela. And we’ve got VPR back! So much to discuss from the premiere - including Lala’s in or out stance, Katie and Tom’s divorce, and what it is that we think makes the VPR cast truly special. Cocktailers- there’s so much Bravo to talk about!

Amanda is on a work trip so Larry joined B to talk about all the housewives happenings this week. B and Larry hash out what went down on the ex wives trip and what consequences the wild card might face. Why is Jersey so toxic and why are the fans so divided? They also reveal who still works for lover boy and where things, allegedly, stand with the Summer house crew.

The accusations on Real Housewives of Potomac are FLYING. And of course, we have opinions and theories. Plus some exclusive tea on Juan and Robyn’s wedding. Ashley and Luke change their Facebook status to “It’s Complicated”. The ladies of Beverly Hills are gearing up to film, and we have tea on a possible castmate. Which reminds B of the story of Ali Landry’s first marriage that she shares - and Amanda can’t get past one minor detail. We had to Google” “K Hole” after watching the SLC reunion - don’t worry we’ll tell you what it means if you didn’t know either. Last but not least, Lisa and Lenny’s prenuptial agreement from 2009 was sent to us, and there are a lot of interesting details inside. This week’s tangents: Game Show Hosts and Spring Break Locations as metaphors for Bravo shows.

The Winter House trailer came out - and we’ve got some info on the new cast members. And wait, do we like, LIKE Austen after the last episode of Southern Charm? Are Bravo shows the after school specials of today’s generation? And could RHOA be going the RHONY route with a legacy show and a reboot?

What’s the real reason the Real Housewives of Atlanta were in the driveway for two hours? B has exclusive tea just for the podcast about what was really happening - and about the latest drama happening right now during filming of RHONJ. And apparently it’s rabbit hole week - we go deep on two scandals. One is a lawsuit that names many Bravo stars, and accuses Erika Jayne and Tom Girardi of stealing $27 Billion PLUS Spelling Mansion…in one of the biggest cases of alleged identity theft we’ve ever heard of. The other rabbit hole: we’ve got more exclusive info about the shocking Politician and the Socialite story that has ties to the Southern Charm cast. Speaking of Southern Charm, Austen Kroll finds himself trolled yet again. Last but not least, B assigns some homework for the Cocktailers regarding the #PrinceofPegging controversy.
