Ariana Madix a la VPR comes back on the pod and even though season 7 of Vanderpump Rules feels like it was FOREVER AGO, I just had to talk to this angel about it! It was a rough season for both her, and her boyfriend, Sandy, AKA Tom Sandoval, and I wanted to know how she felt about it! From Tom's fight with Jax re the homophobic priest, to some of the cast insinuating Tom is jealous of...Stassi, and Ariana's depression being a big topic this season...Oh and the reunion!

Also Tom & Tom were playing the trumpet downstairs while we were recording and I CANNOT.

How me is it to have my birth story pod also be an ode to the end of Keeping Up With the Kardashians? So me. It's been 5 weeks since Noah was born & I promised I'd do a birth story pod like a true basic youtuber/blogger/influencer! Except I'm pretty sure they wouldn't talk about pushing the bb out of their ass or peeing blood on the nurse! TMI? Sister Arielle joins me to tell the story, and discuss the many celeb pregnancies, births, the tragic end of KUWTK and more.   Produced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We discuss all her appearances on the Bachelor franchise, including Winter Games which I'm pretty sure I'm the only person that watched. We also talk about the trend of Bachelor contestants all getting work done post show, and what she had done. Oh and guess where she was recording from? Jade and Tanner's house! Love it.  Produced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Countess herself is on the pod looking fucking glorious, which she credits to the not drinking since quarantine. We discuss how she felt about queen Bethenny leaving the show, how she deals with the women not really supporting her (EVER) and how she keeps on forgiving Dorinda for being a B to her!?

THE TEA IS PIPING HOT. Ok, stop, I hate calling hot gossip “tea” but omg. Had to. Francesca Farago from Netflix’s “Too Hot to Handle” is back on the show to respond to ex, Harry Jowsey’s recent public “dragging.” In our first episode together a few weeks ago, Francesca was extremely respectful of her ex, and would not go into too much detail about the breakup- and was clearly still shaken up about it! But now, since her ex, the 22-year-old Australian she met on the show, is talking about her everywhere he can, and even threatening to sue her for losing Instagram followers! Yes- this is not a joke- Francesca wanted to speak up- HERE. Listen to this episode for Francesca’s side of the story as she’s telling it here first!

Like almost everyone else on planet earth, I got obsessed with Netflix’s Selling Sunset during quarantine and cannoth wait for season 3 coming in August! To get my temporary fix, I chatted with Mary Fitzgerald, The Oppenheim group’s (and Jason’s), favorite agent. We talk about her relationship w/ the other women, with Jason, that hug that seemed to last for eternity, how Romain feels about it, how she felt about that moissanite engagement ring and the girls’ comments on it. And what is up with the happy married couple now?

Yep, at 8 months pregnant I decided to treat my self-confidence by Zooming w/ Francesca Farago from Netflix’s “Too Hot to Handle.” Great idea Amanda!

This season of RHONY has been a riot, and it’s mostly because of the newest, freshest addition- Leah McSweeney. You know I’m never a huge fan of new people, but boy has she changed the game! Her zero fucks attitude along with her vulnerability and respect for the OG castmates (which they don’t deserve most of the time) Leah is a freaking gem. We talk about the current state of her relationships with the women, her very public distaste for one housewife in particular, her relationship with Tinsley and feelings on her leaving, her current dating life, her activism in BLM, her relationship with her ex husband and why they aren’t together, her drinking, if she’d come back for another season, if she’d think she’d vibe with Bethenny, and Pita Chip- duh.    Produced by Dear Media.     See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

To discuss everything going on in Vanderpump Rules world, I am joined by Zarria Marsh, who runs VPR’s biggest fan account @_surrules on Instagram. We discuss the season, the wedding, the reunion, and of course former castmate Faith Stowers recently going public with how she was treated by the cast when she was on the show, and specifically what went down with now fired OG castmates, Stassi Schroder and Kristen Doute.  This episode was brought to you by: Sun Basket delivers healthy, delicious meals straight to your door.

Yes, I’m having Summer House withdrawal already. It was such a good season! I talk to Paige – who is such a vibe – wearing a giant flower on her shoulder – about all things SH: why her boyf isn’t on the show, what she thinks the real deal is with Hannah and Luke, what happened between her and Lindsay (remember how she blew up at her – even Lindsay remained speechless!?), how far Jules was up her butt, if she thinks Jules & Jordan were actually boning, and if she stanned Carl and Lindsay as a couple. Since she also loves celeb stuff, we discuss Khloe Kardashians “new face” photo that made waves and so much more. TBH, if it wasn’t for the partying I feel way too old far, I feel like I’d be a shoe in at the SH.  The Not Skinny But Not Fat Podcast is produced by The Podglomerate.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Since binging Vanderpump Rules from Ep 1, Season 1, I didn’t understand what the hell everyone wants from Scheana. Why does she get hate? Why is she edited poorly? Why the constant montages of her in a negative light? (from saying Rob 5,000 times, being called boy crazy, crying all the time, calling everyone her “best friend…”) But this season was EXTREME – from choppy manipulative editing, to making her seem DESPO for not one but two new cast members (and a-holes). It’s not ok! Hence the #JusticeForScheana hashtag! Scheana joins me today and tells me everything she thinks/feels about Max, Brett, Dayna, the editor, her current relationship (yas she has a BF!), and how she feels about being one of the only OG’s still waiting tables at SUR, hanging with newbies, and not having a lot of her personal life showcased on the show.  This episode was brought to you by: Sun Basket delivers healthy, delicious meals straight to your door.

I’m joined this week by new VPR castmate, Danica Dow – and no that's not a stage name! This badass bish tells us all about what it was like joining the VPR cast, her relationship with the OG’s, who was most accepting of the new peeps, and who was not having it. What went down with her co-worker/boyfriend at SUR that got her suspended, and the many scenes she filmed that weren’t aired. I wish we saw more of her this season, and hoping she’ll come back with a bang!  The Not Skinny But Not Fat Podcast is produced by The Podglomerate.  Learn more about your ad choices.

I hope this doesn’t count as cheating, but I have the hottest Bravolebrity, Luke Gulbranson, on the podcast today. He joins me from the middle of the Minnesotan woods where he is – working on his lake house – true fucking story guys. This hot mountain man tells me all about how he joined Summer House, what the deal with Hannah really is, where they stand now, who he’s closest to in the house, and who he DOES NOT vibe with (cough cough, if you watched the reunion, you probably already know).  The Not Skinny But Not Fat Podcast is produced by The Podglomerate.  Learn more about your ad choices.
