Kiki and Kibbitz: Recent Episodes

Kiki and Kibbitz Productions

We break down reality TV as though it was, like, totally real! We produce a variety of podcasts on Real Housewives, Below Deck, 90 Day Fiancé, and more. Let the wild kiki begin!

This week on TOW, Alina (and the rest of planet Earth) finds Steven’s behavior bizarre and risky when he decides to “hitchhike” in Turkey by throwing himself in front of passing cars. Ellie and Victor arrive in Providencia and witness the devastation firsthand. While their house is still standing, there is no infrastructure or services, leaving the couple in dire straights, wondering what to do. Jenny and Sumit continue to not get married (yawn). Armando and his father finally have a candid conversation. Evelin throws Corey under the bus for the 50th time and Raul prepares to do the same. Ari takes the holy water ice-bucket challenge.

Corey gets a steaming mouthful of dick from Evelin’s evil sisters. Steven and Alina arrive in Turkey. Alina takes her mama’s advice and tells Steven he WILL be staying with her, even if there’s no skoodilypoop. Happy wife, dude...Ariela takes advantage of her last few hours of Leandro’s visit to torture Bini and make him as jealous as possible, and Wish is NOT HAVING IT. Victor arrives in San Andres and he and Ellie reunite. Kenny, Cassy, Armando, and Hanna arrive at Armando’s parents' house and get a heartwarming reception. Sumit is STILL NOT MARRYING JENNY (and at this point, no one besides Sumit’s parents even cares). To see the video of this episode, including Brianna’s adorable new heart-shaped Kate Spade bag, head to our Kiki and Kibbitz YouTube Channel. And check out our new Patron-only #LoveAfterLockup podcast on https://patreon.com/kikiandkibbitz!

This week on #90DayFianceTheOtherWay, Jenny’s hopes are crushed and Bini invites his ex-girlfriend and her amazing butt to go out with him, Ariela, and Leandro (turnabout is fair play, right?). Ellie heads to Colombia, despite not knowing where Victor is. Corey gives Evelin an unwelcome gift. Kenny’s daughter shows up in Mexico, prompting an emotional scene. Alina sets a trap for Steven.

Martin hijacks our show and makes himself host before we even get started. That's just fine with us because he is hilarious. Get his hot takes on what former housewife he things should come back to the show, relationships (hint: you don't need a man to validate you!), his own love life, and more. We love this guy!

Jenny faked us all out last week, because 一 SURPRISE! 一 her visa wasn’t actually disapproved; it was just a “glitch.” So, she’s got another few months’ respite. But the immigration attorney suggests another plan. Ariela’s ex-husband shows up and Ari seems to be doing whatever she can to make Biniyam jealous (and it’s working). We find out what Steven’s secret is . Evelin has found yet another way to stick it to Corey. Armando and Kenny are back (cue riotous applause) and they’re planning their wedding and it’s soooo cute. We’ve talked through Ellie’s and Victor’s story and determined that he’s a snack and she’s a big dummy.

It’s the final episode of Real Housewives of New York, Season 13, and the ladies are back at Ramona’s Hamptons house, rubbing their sequin-covered tatas together, because that’s what they do. Sonja explains how she previews the goods of her prospective suitor. An impersonation swap party has each lady matched with another housewife with whom they had beef. Somehow, instead of coming to blows, they bring each other to happy drunken tears (you just never known with this group). Next week is not the reunion! In fact, we’re not sure when it will be! But stay tuned for our exclusive interview with Martin the Boxing Coach next week. Join our Patreon at https://patreon.com/kikiandkibbitz for more exclusive cast interviews and bonus content!

The Below Deck Boys are back for an exciting episode of Below Deck Mediterranean! Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down this Season’s 10th episode, which features the arrival of new “deck-stew” Delaney. Also, the boys discuss Chef Mat’s second-degree burn, Katie’s questionable management decisions, and the start of Hailee and Bailee’s charter. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (28:28) and decide whether they want Delaney to stay for the rest of the season (33:50).

It’s a brand-new season of 90 Day Fiancé the Other Way and we have two new couples. It would be nice to have all new couples, but hey — it’s COVID the Sequel, and at least we have something to watch on TV. Ellie is moving from Seattle to Providencia to live with the loincloth-wearing Victor, who has been living with another woman. The other new couple is Steven, an American Mormon in love with his own hair, who is moving to Russia to be with Alina, the love of his life. Returnees include Corey and Evelin (“we were on a BREAK”) and Jenny and Sumit. And by the way, Ariela has an ex-husband that we never knew about and who also happens to be her “best friend” and is on his way to visit.

“Galentine’s Day?” WTAF? Mary’s out this week, so Ashley of the popular @RealityByAshley account on Twitter explained the concept of Galentine’s Day, which is...well, whatever. “Well, whatever…” is also a good description for this episode. Nothing was lost, nothing was gained, and literally nothing happened. That said, these ladies are outrageous. They all show up to Ramona’s house in the Hamptons, where it is snowy AF, and Ramona makes everyone wear the ugliest pajamas ever. The highlight was the heart-shaped beets, which kind of says it all. Next week, the ladies impersonate each other, which is going to be epic. It’s also the season finale! Rate! Review! Subscribe! Share! And don’t forget to subscribe to our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/kikiandkibbitz for lots of fun celebrity interviews and bonus content.

The Below Deck Boys are back for another exciting episode of Below Deck Mediterranean, Season 6. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down this Season’s ninth episode, which featured Lexi losing her rank as second stew. Also, the boys discuss the Oktoberfest party on deck, Katie’s decision to bring in a fourth stew, and Patrick’s “constructive criticism” of the interior department. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (23:17) and give their thoughts on the new trailer for Below Deck Season 9 (26:35). Lastly, they answer a Life Advice question about having a crush on an unavailable coworker (31:07). DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know what you think!

We’ll all live more happily ever after now that this season of 90 Day Fiancé Happily Ever After Season is OVER. Angela storms out, storms back in, and storms out yet again. (Gurrl, bye.) Strangely, almost everyone defends her. Libby’s family shows up to talk about how Charlie is a drunk and how everything is someone else’s fault. Yara hasn’t had her period for two months and could be pregnant, although she hasn’t wanted to take a test. Tammy and Lessina show up to fight everyone while making them feel guilty at the same time. Mike and Natalie say they’re DONE. Next week, it’s 90 Day Fiancé The Other Way! Subscribe to our Patreon to see/hear our interview with Adam the Translator and tons of other bonus content and cast interviews.

Not news to anyone else, but it's not all about YOU, Ramona Singer ... no matter how hard you try to make it so. After wreaking havoc at the Jew-Belong Black Shabbot dinner with her disruptive whitesplaining, Ramona somehow gets an invitation from Luann to go lunch with the Fortune Society ladies, where she repeats the performance. For some reason, Eboni keeps giving her grace. (Luann and Sonja do, too, but that’s just SSDD.) Sonja pees in Archie’s driveway. Marley dines from the charcuterie board and humps Eboni’s arm. Sonja explains strategies for avoiding unnecessary plumbing bills. Eboni gets exciting news from the genetics investigator. And that’s what you missed on Glee.

The Below Deck Boys are back for a raucous episode of Below Deck Mediterranean. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down episode eight, which features a new and not improved Lexi. Also, the boys discuss Sandy criticizing Katie’s leadership skills, Malia’s slide troubles, and the “Beer Games." John and Sean also hand out episode awards (26:30) and compare the Lady Michelle crew with the Med Season 5 cast (32:38). Lastly, they answer a Life Advice question about work-life balance (39:00).

It’s Tell-All time, which means this damn season of 90 Day HEA is ovah, people! This was definitely one for the books...a book we hope we’ll never have to read again. Everyone came for Natalie. She’s living her best life in Florida, thanks to Mike’s bank card. She and Mike both blatantly lie about seeing other people during their separations (Jovi called Natalie out and K&K has the evidence about Mike’s “dalliance” on our Patreon). Julia looks like a Renaissance Fair reject. Brandon’s parents pour on the guilt and try to bribe the couple to move next door. (We do hope Ron recovers from his health issues.) Tiffany and Ronald are still coming hard for each other. Angela vamps for the camera, accuses Michael of not being supportive, and flashes Aunt Lydia. Basically, have a couple shots before you watch this. You’ll need it.

Leah gets exposed to COVID and has to miss out on Eboni's Black Shabbat, sponsored by “JewBelong.” (Their tagline: “For when you feel like you don’t.” No, really. We’re not making that up.) The ladies allow her to attend remotely and sing the prayer. Ramona makes the dubious disclosure that she used to cry herself to sleep because she wasn’t Jewish, making Eboni seriously regret throwing the event in the first place. Sonja goes on a date, but what she receives v. what she ordered were two different things.

The Below Deck Boys are back for a poignant episode of Below Deck Mediterranean Season 6. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down episode 7, which features an epic crew dance party ruined by David. Also, the boys discuss Sandy’s decision regarding Chef Mat, the end of Athena’s charter, and an emotional reveal from Lloyd. John and Sean also pick a celebrity they would love to see on Below Deck (26:41) and hand out episode awards (30:53). Lastly, they answer a Life Advice question about first impressions (37:18).

There’s trouble in paradise for every one of our couples this week. (We’re not sure if it’s the season finale, but we know there’s a tell-all next week, sooooooo...these might all be cliffhangers). Natalie shows up with a suitcase and fondles her rat. Andrei and Charlie have a fist fight (guess who wins!), which appears to be the final nail in the coffin for Libby’s unhappy family. Lisa tells Kalani and Asuelu that she and Low are selling the house. Asuelu wants to move back to Samoa, but Kalani is not having it. Tiffany and Ronald need to break the eff up and get it over with already. Jovi slept in another room after the strip-club incident. Mama Gwen realized that she was wrong about Yara and that her son is a demon man-child. Angela drags Skyla to the fertility clinic and hears some hard facts.

The Real Housewives of New York consider sleeping with young men badges of honor, so to score points, Sonja lies about having sex with a hot young man … and stays committed to the lie until her friends let her know that the truth was all over IG. Eboni gets the results of a DNA test. Her boyfriend breaks up with her over religion (or is that about DNA too?). We find out that Leah and Sarah have a younger brother with a Village People mustache. Ramona helps Sonja get to the bottom of a pressing business matter. It’s time to film Luann’s Christmas video, which is awash in chaos and ends with Sonja insisting she's "all deva-d out" (which is definitely impossible).

The Below Deck Boys are back to recap another dramatic episode of Below Deck Mediterranean, season 6. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down episode 6, which features the aftermath of Lexi’s epic night. Also, the boys discuss the temporary return of Chef Mat, Katie’s management style, and the start of Athena’s charter. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (23:36) and pick which Lady Michelle crew members they would like to grab a drink with (29:33). Lastly, they answer a Life Advice question about starting your own podcast (32:51). DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know what you think!

Who believes Mike masturbated for the first time at age 32? Who believes he will now that he found out he has a real talent for it? (Two minutes, dude?) Angela is now a size 11, but still 100% as evil as when she was a size 22. Tammy and Lessina arrive in Utah and Asuelu throws Kalani under the bus by giving her a baby blanket in view of everyone. Jovi accuses Yara of being boring. She counters by saying that she's been an old Grandma inside the whole time. Mike complains to his mom while Juliana makes doe eyes at his wife. Andrei and Libby were on the episode (if anything else happened, see if you can remember it). Julia is jealous person. Ronald and Tiffany go to a marriage counselor who just happens to be Ronald's uncle.

90DayFiance's Laura Jallali stops by to spill all the tea! Hear about her current relationship status and some shocking news about Corey and Evelyn's relationship.

Martin the Adorable Boxing Trainer is back to give Sonja life coaching. For the first time in #RHONY history, Luann is throwing Ramona a birthday party. She’ll have to share her birthday with Sonja (a major point of contention in previous years), but she seems ok with it. The ladies invite a bevy of young, good-looking men, including some hot strippers. Leah buys matching boob and dick cakes. We finally find out why Kurt’s naughty bits were so impressive on painting day in Sag Harbor. Leah makes much ado about nothing and we learn that none of the women know what a vulva is.

The Below Deck Boys are back for an all-time contentious episode of Below Deck Mediterranean. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down this Season’s fifth episode, which features the biggest fight in Below Deck history. Also, the boys discuss the end of Roy Orbison Jr.’s charter, Chef Mat’s orgy stories, and Lexi personally insulting almost every member of the Lady Michelle. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (48:53) and remember their favorite altercations from past Below Deck seasons (55:48). Lastly, they answer a Life Advice question about having a COVID-free wedding (1:00:02). DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz to let us know what you think!

This episode enlightens us with the disturbing info that Michael is 32 years old and has NEVER MASTURBATED. And Angela is apparently so jealous that she can’t even stand the thought of him getting off alone. Now, go on ㅡ try to sleep tonight. Andrei is still fighting with Libby’s evil sisters, who are still up in arms about Chuck splitting the profits from a flip with him. Jovi and Yara finally have a date night in Miami. But no matter how much talking they do, Jovi is getting the message: new Yara is here to stay, for better or worse. Julia and Brandon finally move out ( and Ron and Betty act like they will never get over it). Natalie now has a room at her friend Juliana’s house and she has spent only 1 night with Mike since Christmas eve (check out Patreon.com/kikiandkibbitz to hear the story from Uncle Beau’s mouth!). Mama Asuelu and Tammy are on their way (bring liquor ㅡ you’ll need it).

Twitter Goddess @RealityByAshley joins us for a rousing roast of #RHONY. On this episode, Ramona admonishes Bershan for being so hard on Sonja. Bershan, however, feels like her “fire bomb'' was necessary. Eventually, she apologizes for assuming the rest of the group was like Ramona (by which she meant...fun?). Everyone gets emotional at the séance, although we’re sure the medium is actually #90DayFiance Psychic shapeshifter Tracy in disguise. The dead come through to explain why all of the women are cray cray in their own special ways. Join our Patreon $2.50/mo. tier for bonus content and follow Ashley for her hilarious tweets.

Psychic Tracy intervenes on Angela’s behalf. Finally, Michael asks for forgiveness and they end up having FaceTime sex (ouch, our eyes are burning). Jovi feels like Yara pulled a bait and switch on him (and she feels the same about him). Mike brings back a trend in activewear that should have died in the 1970s. Natalie refuses to apologize for taking the truck and going to her surgery without even telling him she was going. Tiffany and Ronald deal with incompatible views about gender roles. Becky throws Libby under the bus at the family reunion, then blames Andrei for his reaction. We also find out that Ukrainian Christmas isn’t on 12/25 and that they don’t have Christmas trees in Samoa. Kalani’s family tries to get emotionally ready for a visit from Mama Asuelu and Tammy.

Eboni attempts to do damage control after her “white supremacism” comment. Bershan tells her the women don’t need a speech every day (debatable), then starts a full-on brawl with Sonja, calling her a clown (arguable). Ramona avoids any and all serious topics, including that of her apparent incontinence. Eboni and Leah get memorial tattoos. Luann meditates, takes a selfie in front of a wigwam, and tells Bershan she can leave after the life coach calls them all "boring grandmas." In keeping with her iconic status, Sonja drinks Ramona’s giant glass of red wine through a sparkly mask....annnnnnd fade to black!

The Below Deck Boys are back for a spirited episode of Below Deck Mediterranean season six. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down this season’s third installment, which features the second wedding in Below Deck history. Also, the boys discuss rising tensions between Matt and Lexi in the galley, Mzi’s continued improvement on deck, and whether we’ll see any crew hookups this season. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (22:35) and discuss which former male cast member they would add to the season to liven things up (29:28). Lastly, they answer a Life Advice question about breaking your cold streak at weddings (35:20). DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz or on Twitter at @KikiKibbitz and let us know what you think!

It’s the day of Natalie’s surgery, but she’s MIA. (Drama queen.) Mike runs around town with production, trying to find her. She turns up just in time for him to make her boiled potatoes with a host of weird other ingredients. Back in the Family Libby RV, there are at least 500 screaming infants. Good thing we have DVRs so we can fast forward through this boring crap. Andrei is an a-hole, but Libby’s family just keeps baiting him, hoping that he’ll explode and then they can say “See, there he goes again -- exploding!” Jovi FINALLY comes home and sees the location of his exile. In South Africa, Ronald continues to be a douche canoe and Tiffany continues to ride his ass. Ass-uelu decides he wants more kids, so he tells a used car salesman (did the guy have magical fertility powers or something)? His mom demands to come to town with his murderous sister, so he teaches his kid to twerk because...well, that’s what one does. Julia and Brandon invite Brandon’s parents to come see their new apartment and blindside them with the news. (Spoiler alert: they’ll miss the free farm help.) Angela yells at Michael for roughly 36 hours straight.

Eboni proves she isn’t all “teachy and preachy” and can have a good old time with the girls when she takes Sonja to the city of Brotherly Love to meet Devyn, the matchmaker. Eboni also makes it clear we don’t want no “broke ass” for Sonja. After all, she was married to the bank. Leah invites everyone to Salem, MA , where the Hawthorne Hotel freaked the ladies out but the image of Ramona in a latex catsuit freaked us out more. Sonja “stirs the cauldron” in Luann’s words and in a last-ditch effort to stop the stirring Ramona breaks out into a weird old white lady dance while screaming “I’m sorry I’m white!!”. Another classy dinner with the ladies of NYC!

The Below Deck Boys are back for a dramatic episode of Below Deck Mediterranean. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down this season’s second installment, which features the (somewhat) triumphant return of Chef Mathew. The boys also discuss another winning performance from Katie, some potential "boatmances," and a memorably drunken showing from charter guest Clint. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (27:11) and share their thoughts on Malia so far this season. Lastly, they answer a Life Advice question about getting your significant other into Below Deck (38:15). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know.

We sat down with Jon Walters to discuss his visa process and his criminal record, which might delay the visa or block it all together. He also shares a funny backup plan.

This is the first part of the interview. Parts 2 and 3 include him dishing on which cast members register on his c--t-o-meter and why, and which are his buddies (which is even more shocking). These two videos are available on our Patreon at patreon.com/kikiandkibbitz in our $2.50 tier. Lots of other bonus content, too!

Eboni invites the ladies to a Harlem Renaissance party to educate them about the rich history of the area. To say it was a culture shock was an understatement. Ramona had never been “down to Harlem” before (which, considering Harlem is north of the upper East side, just demonstrates the point). Luann says she’s a big “fan” of Harlem, but we are skeptical that she’d ever been there before gentrification (it’s hard to imagine the Countess hanging on 130th street in the 1990s). Eboni’s attempts at instruction fall flat, especially with Ramona, who leaves because she has “vertigo.” Leah gets a HIGH SCHOOL consultant (Mary explains). Victoria visits Luann after getting sober. Eboni comes to visit Ramona and they have an argument over politics.

The Below Deck Boys are back for Below Deck Mediterranean Season 6! Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down the premiere, which features quite possibly the worst meal ever served in Below Deck history. Also, the boys give their first impressions on each Lady Michelle crew member and chat about some pretty unlikable charter guests from Texas. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (34:16) and share what they’re most excited for this Season (38:50). Lastly, they tackle a Life Advice question about asking out a barista (43:00).

Tiffany and the kids have been in South Africa for a day and Tiffany’s angry because Ronald spent the grocery money on oppressive blue paint for Daniel’s room. For his part, Ronald seems mystified that people eat stuff in their homes, so they go off to the store for a fun shopping trip (not)! Andrei starts a verbal brawl with Becky. Ellie almost falls down the stairs in the AirBnB, despite having 15 family members around (but spoiler alert, it’s still Andrei’s fault). Natalie and Mike continue to pretend they’re still a couple. Natalie springs the news on Mike that she scheduled her nasal operation at her friend’s house over dinner (by the way, have you seen her new nose?). Yara demonstrates her excellent ability to make her mother-in-law wait on her. She picks out a new apartment but neglects to pack a damn thing. We feel sorry for her that she’s alone with a new baby and having to move, but SERIOUSLY? Michael and Angela seem like they truly might break up. Michael gets advice from the goofballs and Angela visits a divorce lawyer. Julia and Brandon see an apartment that Julia loves but which they cannot afford. Julia interviews to be a dance instructor at the gym, but “dance” means something different to her than to the hiring manager.

The Below Deck Boys are back for the most dramatic reunion in Below Deck history. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss parts I and II of the Sailing Yacht Reunion, which features several shocking and heartbreaking revelations on Dani and Jean-Luc’s relationship. Also, the boys discuss the end of “Throuple,” tensions between Daisy and Gary, and their excitement levels for Below Deck Med Season 6. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (29:44) and do a final ranking of the Parsifall III crew (32:50). Lastly, they tackle a “Life Advice” about living with roommates in your late thirties (49:38). DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know what you think!

On this episode, we basically speed through all the couples to get to the meat of the episode: Angela. This woman is off her rocker and the entire Internet is freaking out. Mary’s IG handle is “Angela’s Bra Purse,” and for some reason, the dummies out there actually think it’s Angela Deem. (WTAF?) And people are DMing with actual death threats! Let’s just say that 90 Day Fiance viewers have #feelings about her and this episode. Will she break up with Michael? (This would definitely be a mercy divorce for this poor abused man.) Will Lucky the Rat escape from the madness we call Mike and Natalie? Will Kalani realize she has three children and the oldest one is Ass-suelu? Will Libby’s family kill each other by the end of this ill-fated RV trip? I guess we’ll just have to tune in to find out. Wow. Just, wow.

The Below Deck Boys are back for another wild episode of Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole dive into the season finale, which features more chaos in the Gary-Alli-Sydney love triangle. Also, the boys discuss the yachtie charter, the crew reflecting on their season “highs” and “lows” at dinner, and one final party on deck. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (32:00) and pick their favorite moments of the season (37:51). Lastly, they tackle a Life Advice question about dating someone with no hobbies (43:10).

The 1970s beauty pageant is ON. It’s a little confusing, but, hey, it’s RHONY. Eboni admits she may have paraphrased Heather and Heather clarifies her comments about Eboni being “articulate.” Leah suffers the loss she knew was coming (and Ramona offers no useful consolation). Martin the Boxing Coach is back in all of his glory to help empower Sonja. It’s the Trump-Biden election and Sonja is dressed “presidential” and is still making sense, making this the most unlikely season of RHONY ever. Ramona applies for a job. Leah’s dog reflects her inner chaos.

Libby and Becky make up (at the behest of Jen’s eyebrows) so that Libby and Andrei will go to the family reunion and Andrei can have "bro time" with Chuck. Natalie acts like a toddler, shocking the entire Internet. Kalani has turned Asuelu into a slut person and they have a staring contest. Asuelu makes us wonder what part of his anatomy he is referring to when he talks about his “donut.” Angela goes to a hypnotherapist to quit smoking. Brandon and Julia decide that cake is the hill they want to die on (we remain baffled by this decision) and we find out that Brandon has only spent two months living away from mommy and daddy IN HIS WHOLE LIFE. Tiffany compromises with Ronald, at the expense of Cuban Christmas (another decision we strongly question). To sum it all up, we missed Jovi and Yara. Sign up for our Patreon at patreon.com/kikiandkibbitz to hear the interview with Uncle Beau and Tamara that has the entire Internet shook (and for lots of other bonus content). See you next week!

This episode features the fishing trip you never knew you were missing. We would literally pay to watch Sonja and Eboni in waders, screeching as they try not to get washed away by the surf. Luann might have good game with a baton, but she’s got nothing on Sonja with a big rod. Big Lu gets some more education on why “angry” is a loaded word for Black women in America. Of course, Heather KNEW all about that because she KNOWS Black America...at least the excessively rich and privileged part of Black America (shut the eff UP, mama). The ladies get ready for a confusing theme party. Leah gets into it with the baroness of Yummy Tummy. And Sonja is making all kinds of sense. So, yes, the world really has turned upside down.

The Below Deck Boys are back for another wild episode of Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this Season’s penultimate episode, which features Sydney going topless and sending the Parsifal III into chaos. Also, the boys discuss Jean-Luc’s super romantic date with Dani, the department heads' meeting, and the crew finding out they’ll have to serve fellow yachties. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (34:50) and pick their least favorite Below Deck cast members ever (41:30). Lastly, they dive into a “Life Advice” about unwanted wedding invites (46:10).

We got to interview Uncle Beau and Tamara (audio dropping soon, or watch the video of us on our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/kikiandkibbitz). We played our rap song for him. It was priceless to see his face when ... good times, people! Listen to the interview to get all the tea, including the status of Mike's and Natalie's relationship (you will not guess what went down...promise you!).

On this episode of 90 Day Fiance Happily Ever After, Natalie and Trish are SAVAGE to each other. The smirks and contempt go right over the top during their family Thanksgiving. Tiffany tells her smoking-hot dad about Ronald’s past. He’s bummed, but agrees to co-sign his affidavit of support anyway (he’s obviously hotter than he is intelligent, based on this choice). Angela hears the word “no” for what’s obviously the first time in her life and doesn’t take it well. Dr. Saadat makes her sign a smoking waiver. And finally we see Michael again (and not on the phone!). Andrei manipulates Chuck into moving him to an office job where he’ll only work with him and not the hostile siblings. Later, Libby literally LUNGES at her sister on a family boat trip. Their RV vacation should be flawless. Jovi’s leaving and a hurricane is coming, so Yara has to stay with Gwen, compounding her genuine sadness at being alone with newborn Mylah. Julia gets her work permit and couldn’t be more excited. Asuelu plans a romantic getaway with the intention of saving his marriage to Kalani.

This week’s episode is all about the D. You know, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick. DICK. There, we said it, Ramona. Leah’s sex-positive and you’re (quite literally) a boomer. As if there wasn’t enough DICK for you in the first part of this episode, the women head to Luann’s house to paint a naked man with a big….you know (dick). Sonja does the big reveal and the ladies’ jaws drop. It’s all fun and games until the lamb curry comes out, Eboni says the word “education,” and it all goes left. Because who cares if you’ve got a decade worth of school under your belt? Luann is definitely still more educated than you. It ends with lots of tears (we’re sad for Leah) and some highly inflammatory words that should never have been uttered.

The Below Deck Boys are back for another fantastic episode of Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this Season’s 14th episode, which features another great crew night out for the Parsifal III squad. Also, the boys discuss Natasha’s terrible time management, the “Women’s Empowerment Dinner,” and Gary ruining things with Alli. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (30:00) and decide whether they could make it as a deckhand or stew (36:00). Lastly, they tackle a “Life Advice” about surviving on your own in a new city (42:35). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know.

On this episode of 90 Day Fiancé Happily Ever After, Mike and his mom, Trish, play a cheerful game of “throw firewood at the Ukrainian” and try to cure the vegetarian with exposure therapy in a butcher shop. Angela finds out what kale is (and is not a fan). She calls Michael outside of the juice bar and is shocked when he hangs up on her as she’s smoking and talking about yet another surgery. Tiffany hits her dad up to sponsor Ronald’s visa (and her mom tries to get her to “omit” the part of the story where Ronald is a gambling addict who’s been arrested multiple times). And speaking of lying through omission, Libby’s sister, Jen, has the great idea for her to hire a nanny for Ellie and not tell Andrei. Andrei goes to demo a kitchen (mood: high-key alpha male) and Charlie confronts him. Kalani’s dad finds out he’s on the hook for supporting Asuelu for life. Julia is jealousy person.

On this episode, we cover the highlights of the final reunion episode of #RHONJ (yawn) and the hilarious antics of the #RHONY crew (yay). Sonja finds herself EXTREMELY triggered by the words “Wells Fargo” and “Garth” and proceeds to spiral in front of our eyes (SSDD). She tells Luann that she stole her man (Tom), which triggers Luann. Why doesn’t she just get back together with Harry Dubin? Eboni speaks up for Sonja and acts as Leah’s voice. Ramona holds a “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” dinner. Heather Thompson shows up and admits and denies everything simultaneously. The women talk about penises and Ramona pretends she’s a virgin. Just a normal day in New York!

The Below Deck Boys are back for a dramatic episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this Season’s 13th episode, centering on possibly the least likable charter guests in Below Deck history. Also, the boys discuss J.L. learning about chafing, things cooling off between Alli and Gary, and another weird “dessert” from Natasha. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (26:00) and pick which Captain they would want to work under (34:00). Lastly, they tackle a Life Advice about whether college is still worth it (38:45). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know. Send your Life Advice submissions to BelowDeckPod@gmail.com

Angela survives her surgery but feels her triple D boobs are "flat as a board" and Michael apparently agrees. Andrei debriefs Libby on his first day at work. Then they go to the immigration attorney and he tells her that he has "regulated and buried his past." (Okkkkkkk.) Ronald manipulates Daniel and he and Tiffany have long-distance "sexy time" for their anniversary (barf). Papa Kalani counsels her on the value of staying together no matter what, then takes Asuelu out for an "educational" game of golf. Jovi and Yara go out on their first date since Mylah was born. Natalie visits Trish's piggybank museum. Julia narrowly avoids murdering Brandon's friend Melanie.

Did she predict Stephanie and Ryan's breakup? Did she predict a long, successful romance for Stephanie and Harris? And what about the other 90 Day Fiancé couples? Kiki and Kibbitz sat down with the charming Maria Shaw, Stephanie Davison's Psychic friend (who is also the author of 9 books and serves as the horoscope columnist for the National Enquirer and Soap Opera Digest, among her other credits), to get her "reading" on the situation. Maria gives us Mary and Brianna their own eerily accurate astrological readings, spills some behind-the-scenes tea (oh yeah, she was worried about Baby Mama...no wonder Harris was sweating bullets!), and gives us her predictions on the future of some other 90 Day faves. She also tells us what she thinks about Stephanie's current legal problems and how they'll pan out. Listen now!

Brianna is taking weeknights off this week (hello, Mental Health Awareness month!). Apologies. See you next week!

The Below Deck Boys are back for a wild episode of Sailing Yacht, Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this Season’s 12th installment, which features the biggest boat crash in Below Deck history. Also, the boys discuss the start of Bianca and Erica’s charter, more issues from Natasha in the galley, and an STD scare that has Dani considering an end to her season. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (26:00) and contemplate whether Sailing Yacht Season 2 is the best show on TV (32:40). Lastly, they tackle a “Life Advice” about male bonding (37:24).

The Below Deck Boys are back for very a special episode. It’s interview time, featuring none other than ... Below Deck Sailing Yacht's Chief Stew Daisy Kelliher!!! She chats with John and Sean about her history in yachting, her relationship with Gary and Natasha, and her favorite moments of the Season. Plus, a whole lot more! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know what you think! Send your Life Advice submissions to BelowDeckPod@gmail.com.

Kolini helps Kalani realize that it is NOT NORMAL for your husband to sleep in another room. When Kalani tries to explain to Asuelu that they need to work on their sex life, it just confuses him. In Samoa, he says, they just “have sex like normal people.” “Dr. Gorilla Glue” calls Michael to set his mind at rest about Angela’s surgery (not sure he succeeded). It’s Andrei’s first day at work with Chuck and it all goes off the rails ... even before they get to the job site. When they do arrive, Andrei confirms the siblings’ worst fears about him working with them within the first 10 minutes. Yara and Jovi are out to lunch (literally). Jovi continues to be a little boy in a man’s body and Yara continues to try to parent both him AND Mylah. Natalie finds her way back to Sequim and Mike couldn’t be more unimpressed. She tries to charm him out of being mad by doing some kind of bizarre Ukrainian rain dance (spoiler alert: it doesn’t work). Daniel continues to be a better partner for Tiffany than Ronald is. Ronald makes her cry on a video call, shocking the entire Internet (not). Julia goes to meet a wedding planner to get an idea of what the job is like. When she finds out that Brandon has a female friend, she flips OUT on him, proving that she is, indeed, as jealous as she said she was when they were in Las Vegas.

It’s the #RHONJ finale already? That snuck up on us! These COVID seasons are short (unlike the seasons we’ve spent at home waiting for this damn pandemic to end). Finally, we meet Luis. Was it worth the wait? Maybe not for us, but for Teresa, the wait to meet a guy “who knows how to act right” seems to have paid off, because she seems happy AF. (Maybe by next season, Teresa will know what it means to “dot butter.” She’s a slow learner.) Melissa and Joe are still fighting about Melissa’s 21st-century goals to have a life outside of her household. Joe B., on the other hand, has never tried to hold Marge back, she tells the guests at his 65th birthday party. So what if she held him back by holding him hostage to her house renovations for the last God-knows-how-many years? At least he lets Marge be Marge. In other news, Dolores “I love my freedom” Catania is renovating her house. Frank “you’ll never be free as long as I live here” Catania tells the contractors not to listen to her. IT’S HER HOUSE, ya meatball! Bill gives Jennifer a 9 karat cushion cut diamond (yes, please). Jackie and Evan are at the “we joke about the mistress you never had” phase of their relationship healing. And speaking of healing, there was plenty of that this week on Real Housewives of New York. And speaking of Real Housewives of New York, as of next week, this podcast will be devoted to the hilarious antics of the ladies from the Big Apple. See ya then!

The Below Deck Boys return for what is arguably the most thrilling episode in Below Deck history. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this Season’s 11th episode, which features not one, but TWO, boat crashes. Also, the boys discuss more Sydney vs Alli drama, a little tension between department heads, and more sultry moments between Dani and Jean-Luc. John and Sean also hand out episode awards (28:10) and discuss the most heart-pounding moments in Below Deck history (33:12). Lastly, they tackle a “Life Advice” about being over-worked and underpaid (38:45). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know.

Welcome to 90 Day Fiancé, Angela’s Boobs Edition. We’re weighing them. “Medically fondling” them. Sticking packs of cigarettes in them. Reducing them. Lamenting said reduction. It’s a lot. (A lotta boobs, that is.) Outside of that “big” news, Andrei and Charlie have their sit down and it’s all toxic alpha-male energy. Boys, shut up and go sell some houses, will ya? Jovi and Yara try to find their way as new parents. Well, Yara tries to find her way as a new mom with two babies, anyway (welcome to Kalani’s world, girl). Julia has her green-card interview and we learn about a Russian tradition we can all embrace (“sit and then go”). Tiffany moves out of her mom’s house, instead of going to South Africa to be with her own man-baby. Enjoy!

It’s a combo episode, people! We’ve got two out of three states in the Tri-State area. (Only Connecticut is missing.) First, we cover Real Housewives of New Jersey, which is getting a little old (or is it just that New York feels shiny and new right now?). Teresa is in love (we don’t say it, but now we SAID it). Dolores doesn’t want a ring (mm-hmm). Jennifer is redecorating her house (ok, that’s kinda new, but still…yawn). It’s Jackie’s birthday, so we’re off to apple picking and wine tasting. Joe Gorga has kidney stones, so Mary fills us in on what is worse — kidney stones or childbirth. Marge is having a photo shoot for her new book that someone else is writing. So NOW on to the really new, new stuff…New York! We start in October 2020, which is somehow eerier in NYC than anywhere else. Leah is converting to Judaism (say WHAT, now?). Neither she nor Luann are drinking (and in their case, we support them). Mary, sweet Mary brands Sonja a “wack-a-doodle,” (she’s right). After all, who else has an intern who needs to learn how to draw a bath and hose off the patio. Ramona and Luann are friends, so hell HAS apparently frozen over. And we meet Eboni, who was on an Oprah track but switched to an ambitious, busy, brilliant, but not-as-rich Oprah track. She seems interesting! Everything is sunshine and roses…THIS week. Of course, we fast forward to see that it only takes an episode or two for things to be back to normal. RHONY normal, that is! Let us know what you think--should we continue with these combo episodes? More NY? Less NY? DM us at @Kikikibbitz on Twitter or @KikiandKibbitz on IG!

The Below Deck Boys are back for a wild episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this Season’s 10th installment, featuring a wild crew party on deck. Also, they weigh in on the end of Sheka and Frank’s Charter, Jean-Luc being a wet blanket, and some steamy moments from Dani, Alli, and Gary. John and Sean also hand out episode awards and discuss their favorite “Villains” in Below Deck history. Lastly, they tackle a Life Advice question about outrageously expensive bridesmaid dresses. Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know. Send your Life Advice submissions to BelowDeckPod@gmail.com

No idea why this episode was called “Indecent Proposal,” when it clearly should have been “Everybody Loves Sushi,” “My Three Douches,” or even “Ain’t My Boobies Purty?” Angela gets her surgery consult and gets busted for smoking (but only because the doc sees the pack of smokes in her bra). Tiffany and Ronald are back and not much has changed: Tiffany is still gorgeous, Ronald is still useless, Daniel is still the best kid ever. Julia and Brandon are still in Vegas and Julia never wants to go home. Libby’s family discusses whether Andrei should join the family business (that is, if by “discusses,” you mean “has a DEFCON 10 level meltdown with tons of cursing”). Asuelu tries to convince Kalani he’s a new man. Natalie sets a “booby” trap.

Let's take a vote here: who's more entertaining, the NJ Housewives or their husbands? We start the episode still talking about Dolores and David. Half of the moms no longer live with their husbands and they are HAPPY about it. Meanwhile, all of the younger women feel like Dolores is settling with David (we do, too, but not because he doesn't want to get married...he's just an a-hole). The men go golfing, ending in a hilarious bet where Frank Catania has to (literally) kiss Joe Gorga's bum. Later, there's a party, where Teresa denies she's in love and the ladies gang up on Dolores because her beau gifted her a Porsche instead of a diamond. What world do they live in? Take the car and hit the road, girlfriend! Next week, tune in for "A New York Minute," where we add 15 minutes of commentary about the new season of #RHONY to the end of the #RHONJ episode. See you then!

The Below Deck Boys are back for a thoughtful episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this season’s ninth offering, featuring an escalating feud between Gary and Jean-Luc. Also, they weigh in on the beginning of Sheka and Frank’s charter, more “throuple trouble,” and some somber moments from Dani and Colin. John and Sean also hand out episode awards and discuss their favorite moments of the season so far (36:27). Lastly, there’s an interesting “Life Advice” about socializing post-pandemic (40:23). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know. Send your Life Advice submissions to BelowDeckPod@gmail.com.

Angela might have thought about hanging up her vagina when she became a Mee Maw, but we definitely did not think about hanging up this podcast! HEA is back, baby, and the season premiere definitely did not disappoint. Andrei has yet another career he's embarking on (okayyy). He hits Chuck up for a $100k loan and you can only imagine how that goes. Angela heads to Beverly Hills for weight-loss surgery, much to Michael's chagrin. Julia finally gets to leave the farm for a honeymoon in Vegas, sporting some Darcey & Stacey-style shades. Mike and Natalie buy $3 rings for their $3 marriage. Kalani and Asuelu decide that a massive joint investment is the best chance they have to save their relationship.

What Brianna learned this week on Real Housewives of New Jersey, in two words: CANNOLI DIP. It’s a thing, people! (Don’t believe us? Here’s a recipe: https://bit.ly/3epZibx) In case you haven’t noticed, we have decided that fashion takes a definite back seat to the food on this show. Between the yacht party and the Turkish tea party, it’s one long, luscious festival of food. This week, we get the long-awaited “birds-and-the-bees” convo between Melissa and Antonia. Newsflash — it’s too late. Antonia didn’t admit this, but…c’mon, folks. Have ya seen “Teen Mom”? Teresa finally admits she’s seeing someone and we hear how they met (hint: it was not on match.com and no cannoli dip was involved). We end on a sad note, with Teresa leaving the mom-and-daughter tea party in tears, missing her late mother.

The Below Deck Boys are back for an extremely dramatic episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this Season’s 8th installment, which includes arguably the most contentious night out in Below Deck history. Also, they discuss charter guest Frank’s poker night, more “throuple trouble,” and the burgeoning romance between Jean-Luc and Dani. John and Sean also hand out episode awards and decide which current cast members they would want to party with (41:10). Lastly, there’s an interesting “Life Advice” about escaping New York City to join a cabaret show at sea (45:47). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know.

It’s over, people! Season 8 of 90 Day Fiancé is in the bag. It starts with Amira telling her side of the story. At first, it seemed as though the cast was more sympathetic to Andrew, but once they saw how nervous and panicky she was, they changed their tune a little. (We always believed her!) Tarik and Hazel try to defend their polyamorous relationship. Minty comes on and exuberantly declares that she and Tarik are still in contact…what a VILLAIN. Mike’s friend Sarah comes on to defend the night-before-the-wedding controversy, confirming what we knew—Natalie is crazy. Thanks for tuning in…see you next week for #HEA!

Things we learned in this episode: 1) Old-school Italians do not believe in psychics or mediums. Well, they believe in them. But they don’t believe in them. 2) Mediums can communicate with dogs who have passed on 3) Jews eat pomegranates on Rosh Hashana (and no, Brianna did not know this) 4) 90% of Jewish grandmas’ names are “Esther” (and yes, Brianna knew this) 5) Bill Aydin’s favorite color is fuchsia 6) You should always, always get your mammograms on the regular (we are sending all of our thoughts and prayers to Dolores, who we adore!) Who says the Real Housewives aren’t educational? ( Side note: if you want to see Brianna's perfect microbladed eyebrows, go watch the video on IG @KikiandKibbitz!)

The Below Deck Boys are back for a dramatic episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this season’s seventh episode, which includes a painful morning after for our “throuple,” Gary, Alli, and Sydney. We meet new charter guest Frank Martinis (real name) and his friends, address some tension between Jean-Luc and Alli, and suffer through Natasha's struggle with basic egg orders. John and Sean also hand out episode awards and decide which former Below Deck yachtie they would add to this Season (36:10). Lastly, there’s a fantastic “Life Advice” that asks the guys to rank cities (43:10). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know.

It’s been a long, hilarious, and occasionally painful season of 90 Day Fiancé. In comparison to previous years, this year’s Tell All was anything but boring! There were some shocking surprises (for real), including an unexpected “confession” from Mike’s mom, some long-awaited answers to open questions, and many death threats (mostly from Julia). Rebecca reveals a new look. One couple was conspicuously missing (and no one even mentioned their names). If you passed on this one because you thought previous years’ Tell Alls weren’t worth your time, go grab your popcorn and turn on your DVR. It was awesome. See you next week for part 2!

The cast gets ready for precious Nonno’s celebration of life. Even with that sad event on the itinerary, no one can get along…except for Teresa and Jackie (WTAF?!). Joe’s mad at Melissa for walking in front of him, which is symbolic of her independence. She tries to explain that this is how women in their 40s are different from women at age 24 (the age she was when they got married). Margaret and Jennifer are still going at it, and we’re sick of them both. Teresa is drinking Casamigos at breakfast, which is the first relatable thing she’s done all season. Once everyone finally makes it to the memorial, however, there’s not a dry eye in the house. They release flower petals into the water, Gia gives a lovely speech, and we all raise a glass to sweet Nonno.

The Below Deck Boys are back for a wild episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this season’s sixth installment, which includes both an engagement and the conclusion (finally) of Barrie’s charter. Also, they cover: more Daisy v. Natasha tension, a dominating performance by Daisy in the tip meeting, and an epic crew party that ends in skinny dipping. John and Sean also hand out episode awards, plus do a ranking of all the crew members so far this Season (34:00). Lastly, there’s a great “Life Advice” about being unlucky in love (42:00). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know. Life Advice submissions to BelowDeckPod@gmail.com

It’s the final curtain call for Season 8 of 90 Day Fiancé! We’ve got two new weddings this week. Natalie and Mike finally tie the knot on the 90th day of her visa, with neighbor Tamera and Uncle Beau in attendance. It was a sweet, concise little ceremony. Need proof? Uncle Beau actually shed a tear. Wooooo-yeahhhh. As we all know, they will be together forever and ever and ever (if by “forever” you mean a couple of months). Yara is still hoping Jovi will change, which ALWAYS works out. But since there’s a baby in the mix, one never knows. Mazel tov. Andrew’s mom validates his stupid point of view, questioning WHY someone would go to Serbia for two weeks, only to change their mind about coming to the U.S. Maybe ask some more questions, mom. You might find out what an asshole your baby boy truly is. Amira is back in France, to which we quote Tamera and say “Wooooo-yeah!” Good job dodging that greasy neck bearded bullet, ma chère! Stephanie is back home with Cooper, ready to feed her poor little hostage more key lime yogurt. And we find out that Harris and Emma are (wait for it) SCAMMERS. Well, you get what you pay for, lady!

It's a special K&K BONUS EPISODE! On this episode, we break down Real Housewives of Salt Lake City's Jen Shah arrest scandal. We explain the ins and outs, share some news coverage, and (of course) give our opinions. We also discuss a bit about Erika Jayne from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills so we can compare and contrast. What did you think? Who do you think is more of a heinous criminal? Tweet/DM us at @KikiKibbitz and on Instagram at @KikiandKibbitz!

Teresa might be mad at Jackie, but Melissa and Joe take the Gorga temper to the next level on this episode. Joe got so angry and redfaced that we literally thought he was going to flip a table, Teresa style. Margaret has words with husband Joe B., who tries to defend himself and make nice with Jackie, who rebuffs him. As always, Dolores tries to be a peacemaker and a Teresa whisperer. No dice. But the next morning, Teresa apologizes, making it seem like her little bro got through to her after all. We’ll see how long that lasts!

The Below Deck Boys are back for an action-packed episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole discuss this Season’s fifth episode, featuring a Chef vs Primary Charter Guest matchup for the ages. Additionally, they cover the growing tensions between the departments, the tender malfunctioning, and increased flirting between Jean-Luc and Dani. John and Sean also hand out episode awards, discuss their perfect charter breakfast (35:00), and answer a pretty tricky “Life Advice” question (41:00). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know. Life Advice submissions to BelowDeckPod@gmail.com

It’s wedding day for three of the 90 Day couples, but not for Mike and Natalie. We’re torn about whether it’s timeline fraud or not, but Mary is sure there is some kind of fraud going on here. The one couple we feel has the best chance of staying together is Tarik and Hazel. Hazel looks like an absolute angel and season MVP Angela officiates the wedding. Brandon reads his vows in Russian to his sneaker-wearing bride, who’s moved beyond words (“so so so so cute!”). Zied looks great and is fortunate that no one lights a cigarette and causes his hair to burst into flames. Rebecca’s corset-over-wedding-dress look…not so much, even though Zied thinks she’s so mauch sexy. Jovi and Yara buy wedding rings. Lingering question of the episode—what do cat ears have to do with weddings? Next week—season finale!

In case you (like us) were wondering — yes, that was Bill’s hot pink Ferrari and yes, Jennifer did puke all over the leather. Dolores is being honored for her work as a breast-cancer ambassador (go get your mammograms, ladies...we did!) and David is MIA. God forbid he should take a night off to support her. The gang is headed back down the shore, this time with the men in tow. Teresa shares the scintillating news that she and Juicy Joe are now in the sex toy business. So what else would she bring to everyone as gifts but green dildos? And of course, because Teresa is Teresa, she can’t resist the chance to tell Jackie to stick hers where the sun don’t shine. When Jackie retorts, Mount Vesuvius erupts. What happened to all the namaste, T?

We’re back for another electric episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole chew over this Season’s fourth offering, including a conclusion to last week’s Covid scare, another wild crew party on deck, and a tumultuous dinner service. The boys also hand out episode awards, which leads to a lot of Allie appreciation. Additionally, John and Sean discuss what would be on their Charter Preference Sheets(36:00) and do a listener “Life Advice.” (43:00) Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know.

We’re getting near the end of the season and it’s crunch time. Will they or won’t they get married? Are they married already? Are we being led astray by TLC production? Why would anyone be interested in any of these American men? So many questions. Natalie heads to Seattle with Tamera (and next week’s preview shows she’ll be headed right back to Sequim). Jovi says he’ll change. Amira has a panic attack and misses her flight (and the entire Internet applauds). Brandon can’t even pretend to care about the wedding. Hazel meets the woman of her dreams. Stephanie seems to have replaced Ryan with an older version of the same man. Rebecca seriously loses her shit. We’ve got theories…what are yours? Tweet or DM us at @KikiKibbitz on Twitter and at @KikiandKibbitz on Instagram. Let us know what you think!

Water is the overarching theme on this episode of #RHONJ. Melissa and Joe visit their shore house in Tom’s River. Jennifer has a family meal around the pool, complete with out-of-control children and parental drama. Later, Teresa has a pool party, featuring Tony the Pool Boy and a rousing game of tequila pong (can someone please explain the rules to this sport?). It’s mystifying how these women seem to do nothing but drink but somehow maintain their size-zero physiques. We hate them. (You do, too — admit it.) Jennifer Aydin ends up face down on the cement, prompting equal amounts of ridicule and worry. She is carried out to their hot-pink sports car with a vomitous soundtrack playing as the Aydins drive off into the sunset.

We’re back at it again for a dramatic episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole breakdown this Season’s third hour, including: a Daisy “power move," additional friction between Jean Luc and Gary, plus a Covid scare. The guys also hand out episode awards (Colin wins two of them). Additionally, John and Sean talk St. Patrick’s Day (40:00) and do a listener “Life Advice.” (46:00) Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz or on Twitter @KikiKibbitz and let us know.

It’s all going south on this episode of #90DayFiancé. Looks like Mike has called off the wedding and Natalie is headed back to Ukraine (if Yara knew, she might be jealous). Stephanie suddenly has completely forgotten Ryan and is acting as though she was in love with Harris all along. These age differences and the “importing” foreign spouses from more disadvantaged countries make us wonder if this is all about power. And maybe about pigtails, since Rebecca appears to be following in Stephanie’s footsteps (bad taste, girl). Speaking of Rebecca, she feels like Zied’s not the same man she knew in Tunisia. We could definitely say the same about you, lady. Tarik has apparently decided to reconsider his style, but is it for a moment or for a lifetime? Time will tell. It’s hard to know whether everything is the way it seems or whether production is deliberately playing us. Same goes for Amira and Andrew. It looks like she’s changed her mind and decided not to get on the plane. Fact or fiction? Apparently, we’ll have to tune in next week to find out! See you then!

It’s the last day at Lake George and here comes the drama. Jennifer tells Melissa about Michelle the realtor whispering at Evan’s party that Joe Gorga owes her husband “tens of thousands of dollars.” (Seems like telling unfounded rumors is the main pastime at these NJ parties. Maybe they need better tequila or something.) Melissa doesn’t shoot the messenger, which is amazing, considering their history. Melissa tells Teresa, who acts completely unsurprised AND unconcerned. Melissa holds her feet to the fire about not having Joe’s back. It apparently works, because back in NJ, Teresa tells Michelle that she won’t list the house with her unless she clears up the stuff with her brother. Jackie gets ready for Evan’s second birthday party. She’s got an axe to grind and dammit, she’s gonna grind it. The women arrive and everyone has to hear (again) how Teresa’s rumor was BS. The men finally give in, but probably only so they can eat. Tune in next week, where the previews show Jennifer so drunk she faceplants into the cement. Now there’s a party!

We’re back for an electric episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole recap this Season’s second installment, including a deep analysis of a contentious breakfast service and a legendary crew party. Additionally, they declare the “Winners” and “Losers” of the episode (Gary is involved.) Also, John and Sean discuss embarrassing activities they want to do post-covid. Plus, “Life Advice.” Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know.

Julia has finally figured out what the rest of us already knew--Brandon is an a$$hole. Yara takes Gwen wedding dress shopping and finally relents and invites her to the wedding. Meanwhile, Jovi goes to his old haunt (the strip club where he used to go almost every night) and immediately forgets that he promised his pregnant fiancé he'd be home early...it's not going to go well for him. Natalie takes herself to wedding-dress shopping, looping in her sweet mama, without telling her that there was trouble in paradise. Mike gives the ring back, but not before Natalie pisses him off completely. Hazel holds Tarik accountable. Amira goes to Serbia. Stephanie insists she's been in love with Harris the whole time.

The party continues at Lake George. Marge tries to play peacemaker. Teresa wants everyone to do shots at 11 am. (Woo-hoo!)The ladies take the boat to go out to lunch. Melissa shares that Antonia has a boyfriend and thinks that maybe it’s time to have “the talk” with her (or maybe it’s a bit late, Melissa!). Teresa punks Joe, and everyone is shocked by what a great liar she is (but why, though?). Everyone wants Teresa to apologize to Jackie. It’s not going to happen and if they keep asking, she’s going to blow her casket. The guys get drunk and play poker together. The girls make s’mores. Is Evan cheating? Let us know what you think!

It's sails up on Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2, with a new crew on deck and on the podcast! Hosts John Farley and Sean Cole break down the premiere, including their impressions of the crew and charter guests. Plus, they hand out awards such as: who won the episode, who lost it, and which crew members are most likely to hook up this season. Also, we (unsuccessfully) try to figure out how Daylight Savings works and go over the redeeming qualities of March (a month that can't make up its mind). Let us know what you think! DM us on IG @KikiandKibbitz and let us know!

Yara is already threatening Jovi with being a weekend dad. She might be kind of a bi-atch, but she is HONEST. She’s not going to tell Jovi’s mom that she’s invited to the wedding if she knows that it’s not going to happen. There’s something to telling the truth, right? Also, flip side, he’s a bi-atch, too. Stephanie truly disgusts us (so, basically, SSDD). Ryan has been gone for 12 hours and she’s already ready to get engaged to his cousin. Harris is no better, though. Never trust someone who will betray their own family. Julia has a “Say Yes to the Dress” moment, but no one is making her feel like a princess (sad face). Natalie apologizes to Mike, but it is probably just a ploy to get the ring back. He looks skeptical...because he’s met her. Hazel calls Tarik’s bluff, and he fails the test. Run fo’ yo’ life, girlfriend. Zied is absolutely delighted about the dishwasher and the horse and carriage but drops a bomb about Ramadan. Amira is torn between her common sense and her guilt-tripping fiancé. Thanks for sitting in, Mary! See you next week.

All the ladies except Jackie head to Lake George...and Teresa couldn’t be happier about it. While everyone acknowledges that Jackie’s comment about Gia was an analogy, they know that you don’t. Mention. Teresa’s. Kids. In the van on the way, Teresa admits that Evan in her type (so was the rumor about jealousy?). Jackie stays behind to buzz her sons’ hair and teach her kids that you don’t have to be friends with people who don’t treat you. (If only we’d all learned this earlier in life, right?) Frank and David go on a date. Melissa and Jennifer make up (we’ll see how long that lasts!). Teresa blames the tequila. DM us at @kikiandkibitz on Instagram and let us know what you thought about the episode!

It’s over, people! My Seanna has dropped anchor for the final time in Season 8. It was no Real Housewives reunion, no matter how badly Andy wanted it to be. Chess won’t take the bait and acts like she and Rachel had put their problems to rest after the first two charters (gurrl, we saw the video). Ashling is just as boring and conflict averse. Elizabeth is dressed like a skater and calls Chess a bully (deflect, much?). Eddie won’t call Shane stupid, but somehow lets us know how he feels anyway. Rachel looks amazing, but it can’t hide her crazy. Izzy looks radiant. She’s not sad that Rob didn’t show, and neither were we. James’ eyebrows look better than ours do, dammit! Somehow, they completely neglected any mention of the most poignant moments of the season, but we noticed (as did the entire Internet). In the end, nothing was lost, nothing was gained, but it was a fun ride. Stay tuned until the end for a big announcement. Suffice it to say, it’s the end of an era. Bon voyage!

Mary K. (@AngelasBraPurse) guest hosts on this episode. We talk sht about absolutely EVERYONE and weigh in on who’s a good couple, who’s likely to stay together (pretty much no one), and who’s a major asswipe (almost everyone). We love Julia, hate Brandon (who blames Julia for the pregnancy scare), celebrate Yara’s sarcastic humor, and agree that Natalie is probably a serial killer, even though maybe* Mike’s behavior was more suspicious than we previously thought. Even though we vowed never to cover Stephanie and Ryan again, we HAD TO, because…OMG, did you SEE this episode? We agree that Rebecca and Zied truly love each other, but point out that love is not enough to make a marriage successful. Throuples don’t work — prove us wrong. Let Mary know how much you love her! DM her on IG or Twitter and/or Brianna at @NotThatBrianna (Twitter) or @KikiandKibbitz (Instagram). Feel better, Brad! See you next week!

Where. Are. The. RECEIPTS? Tre's running around telling anyone who'll listen that Jackie's husband is cheating on her at gym. Will this be story of the season? Please tell me it is not, or I'll have to quit podcasting two episodes in. Either that, I or want to see the naked pics so I can verify for myself and count every freckle on his tight little butt (did I say that out loud?). Well, I can say anything I want, because it's my first solo podcast and there is no other co-host here to smack me on the nose and tell me to stop. Salient points: 1) Margaret and Jennifer suck, 2) I have fear-based alcoholism 3) I need Jackie's cute little ruffly pink dress 4) Is it time for bed yet? Lemme know what you think! DM me at @NotThatBrianna on Twitter or @KikiandKibbitz on IG.

Below Deckers, we hope you’re ready for all this. It’s the last episode of the season and we’re in our pajamas, drinking, and just being who we are. How else can we cope with the aborted season, the COVID flashbacks, and the intersection of reality TV and actual reality? This is some heavy shit. After Elizabeth’s departure, the crew goes to dinner and the poor girl’s cake arrives anyway. Rachel is irate that everyone seems to be dancing on her friend’s grave. Meanwhile — cake, people. Cake. The next day, after a failed throw-her-under-the-bus session with the Captain, Rachel decides to walk it off and try to work with Chess anyway. Ironic, because…there ain’t gonna be no more working this season. It’s over. So what else can you do, besides start drinking? No one knows what’s going to happen. Borders are closed. People are self-isolating. It’s sheer chaos. In the end, some fences are mended, other relationships remain unresolved (despite some inauthentic efforts), and someone gets a well-deserved promotion. It’s a wild ride…and the real-life ride still isn’t over. In the end, there’s not much more to say except, hopefully the reunion is a little more upbeat. Real life is hard enough. Right? If you want to see us in our silly pajamas, head over to the @KikiandKibbitz Instagram and have a drink with us. Cheers!

If there are themes to these episodes of 90 Day Fiancé, this one would be either “Stranger in a Strange Land” or “The Bloom is Off the Rose,” at least where it comes to the two Ukrainian women and their men. Mike clearly HATES Natalie. And it sure seems like Yara hates Jovi, too. Or maybe we’re just projecting our own opinions here. Another theme is “cute kids on FaceTime.” We loved seeing Harrey and Auri connecting across the airwaves. Zied looked so happy to see his niece, too. Too bad Rebecca wasn't as happy after the young blond bombshell (who came from where? we still can't figure that out!) started talking to her man. We don't even address Stephanie, Ryan, the psychic, or the hula hoops, for reasons we explain. Girl, BYE.

There’s More to love on this episode! Below Deck Med 3rd stew Jessica More stops by to hang out, spill just a little bit of tea, and tell us about her real life off camera. And yeah—she’s just as beautiful and charming in person as she is on screen. Find out about what’s she’s up to now (hint—she’s a chief stew!), who she’s dating, and what’s she’ll be up to next. But don’t stop here! Go to the @kikiandkibbitz IG account and see the video interview. After that, we even get to a bit of this week’s Below Deck episode. Oh, but, who really cares when you’ve got Jess on the show? ENJOY!

The season finale of RHOSLC is here! While Stacy and Jordan are sad to see it end, our Salt Lake City snow queens really bring it for their farewell week. Mary finally leaves her closet, and it’s pretty clear that she’s never led a choir before. The Beauty Lab opening is a triumph and a spectacle- blush and bashful clouds, Meredith’s (pre-Covid) face mask, Lisa’s scheming and Jen’s questionable apologies. America finally learned what a stanchion is (thanks Heather and Whitney!), but it’s obvious that Jen didn’t learn anything from the fights in Las Vegas.

It’s Elizabeth’s 30th birthday and everyone (wait, make that no one) is celebrating. Her day starts with another lecture from Francesca, who’s so frustrated with her that she’s crying. The Queen of Versailles comes aboard, demanding pickled jalapeño quail eggs, while her low-maintenance husband eschews champagne to drink sweet tea out of a styrofoam cup. Later, the couple sympathizes with Captain Lee, since they, too, lost a child to a drug overdose (crushing!). Meanwhile, their kids — too young to drink in the U.S. — get trash fish (to use Jen’s word), making Ashling nervous. She lies about the hot tub being out of order to get them to bed as soon as possible. Will Liz get fired? Find out next week!

Brandon kind of confronts his parents, who practically self-destruct when they hear the news that he and Julia want to move out. His mom cries crocodile tears while his dad throws a fit because he doesn’t want to be strong-armed by his son’s fiancé. Finally, mom concedes that “maybe” she can compromise on the engaged couple sleeping in one room (how benevolent). Jovi thinks Yara is lying about being pregnant…but not so fast, party boy. He’s mystified how she got knocked up so fast (one hint, dude: you had sex without protection). Stephanie comes clean to Ryan about her tryst with cousin Harris, but it turns out he’d known for ages. Andrew is living it up in Mexico and thinks nothing of asking Amira to go quarantine in…SERBIA? Rebecca’s friend and former boss, Mel, grills Zied and makes Rebecca cry. Hazel and Tarik look for a brown girl who doesn’t have bad breath.

What happens in Jen Shah’s imagination, stays in Jen Shah’s imagination. RHOSLC x Vegas continues with an endless meltdown of circular logic. After HITTING Heather, threatening to drown Whitney, and trashing Meredith’s marriage (OK, actually, Meredith did have a boyfriend), Jen still feels like she is owed an apology. She is a victim.. of her own delusions? Stacy and Jordan are obsessed with celeb hypnotist, Kimberly Friedmutter’s, psychic energy- which is zero patience for Jen's psycho energy.

It’s Groundhog Day on the farm and Julia is shoveling sh*t. We get it, girl. No, he not man. Yes, we hate him, too. We want you move now and no more sneaky room! The cashier at the drugstore wishes Yara good luck. Not sure if she had good luck or not getting pregnant with Jovi’s baby. But Mazel tov from K&K. Amira’s back in France, which is definitely the best news on this episode. Hopefully, she’ll get a clue and STAY THERE. He’s not worth it, Amira! Mike’s mom comes to visit and he and Natalie set a wedding date. Sigh. Let’s be real, none of these people should be together. Our advice to all of them: WEAR CONDOMS. Stay safe everyone…see you back here next time!

This week’s Below Deck was light on content but still managed to piss us off. We’re sick of James and Elizabeth and their whole vapid “love affair.” But these two idiots deserve each other. We start with James trying to make Liz jealous by ogling all the “fit birds” on Rob’s IG. Eye roll emoji. Everyone gets antibiotics on this episode. Too bad they don’t cure stupid. Lil’ Gigi the dog poops on the poop deck (ok, it’s not actually the poop deck, but you knew that pun was coming) but we’re not mad, because she is SO DAMN CUTE. Izzy gets a well-deserved promotion, prompting the guys to give her lots of sh*t … but what did you expect? The crew spends a half day picking up trash on the beautiful island of Antigua and James is bummed because he can’t drink while doing it. Francesca and Eddie are pissed off when James and Elizabeth spend the night in the guest cabin without permission. You don’t want to see disappointed dad, kids. And when did Eddie become “dad”? Next week—Queen of Versailles!

It’s Viva Las Vegas for the ladies of RHOSLC! Stacy and Jordan dive into this trip to The Strip that’s filled with feuds and passive aggression. It’s Whitney’s vacation, but Mary won’t go, Meredith will think about it, and Lisa might find the time. Jen plays matchmaker with Heather and Big Daddy, then flips on Heather (again), questioning her loyalty in a shop full of $1k shoes. Whitney, Meredith, and Lisa hash it out at race track, where we learn Lisa’s driving skills are all Porsche and no bite.

Some people may love her intelligence and wit, but we’re with Eddie on this — Rachel is a f*cking demon and an embarrassing one at that. Everyone has one of those friends, but it’s easier to ditch a friend than a fellow crew member. The crazy train keeps right on chugging through dinner as the foul-mouthed chef decides to talk shit about James RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM. Elizabeth doesn’t even really defend the shallow British douche canoe. Maybe James is willing to let go of his relationship with Elizabeth because of his bromance with Rob. They complete each other. In other news, the crew is dropping like flies, with UTIs and gastric distress all over the boat. Someone, quick — toss an antibiotic-filled life ring to this germ-infested group. The new guests arrive, bringing a less-offensive-than-anticipated little Yorkie with them. One of them is high-key flirting with Ashling, who somehow takes the bait. We. Don’t. Get. It. The episode ends sadly with Captain Lee talking about the son he lost to an overdose. So very sorry for your loss, Cap. And no, it wasn’t your fault.

Glad to finally have a night alone, Brandon and Julia enjoy a naked romp in the hot tub, but apparently, they didn’t cover their tracks well enough, because Detective Mom is on to them. Papa Ron is pissed off, too. If Brandon doesn’t start working harder around the farm, his relationship with Julia just might not work out (wait, what?). Zied’s cooking coffee in Rebecca’s apartment while she’s at work. He is so boring and so excited he see her again now. Natalie’s on the warpath because she can’t find her ring, so she lets Mike know that he’s an obese, classless drunk with a low IQ. Let's see if she gets that ring now. Amira makes it to Amsterdam and we could not be happier for her (run, girl, run!). Tarik and Hazel only have eyes for…other women. Yara was engaged when she met Jovi, making us wonder what she did with the ring. Whatever it was, she should do it again and head back to Ukraine without looking back. Rate! Review! Subscribe! Share! See you next week!

It’s all about breakups and makeups on this episode of RHOSLC. Meredith and Seth are back together (and disgustingly affectionate)! Jen is still spiraling from the wine glass smash at Sharreiff’s party- her marriage is on the rocks and she blames EVERYBODY but herself. Heather is upgrading Beauty Lab, Lisa is “uplifting” women, and Mary is still broadcasting live from her chaotically couture closet. Lesson of the week? A trip to the Manson family hippie spa can solve anything.

Whose side are you on — James/Elizabeth or Francesca? Team Rachel or Team Eddie? What you answer says EVERYTHING about you (although what it says, exactly, we have no idea). One thing we can all agree on, however, is that Rachel’s seafood extravaganza puts all other vaganzas to shame. In other news, Delores jumps off a perfectly good boat…again. Captain Lee is forced to endure dinner with the Karens for a second time. Izzy definitely has the ‘Rona. And Rob clearly wants to get down with James. And no, we’re not drunk. We just want to lead the band.

Natalie and Mike seem to hate each other, but their charade continues nonetheless. The cosmopolitan Kyiv native has been transformed into Cinderella out in rural Sequim. She’s cooking and cleaning and dreaming about the diamond ring she used to have. Jovi’s friend Sara takes Yara out…ostensibly to be kind and keep her company. But when she asks Yara “how do you feel about strip clubs” it seems like she has some kind of ulterior motive. Maybe she wants Jovi for herself. Or maybe she used to date him and has a vendetta out against him. Or maybe she’s just jealous of Yara’s style—definitely the best we’ve seen on 90 Day Fiancé. WE HATE ANDREW! He’s wearing his all-inclusive resort bracelet on the balcony overlooking the ocean while poor Amira wastes away in a Mexico City detention center. Zied finally makes it to Georgia, only to be trolled by Rebecca’s daughter and son-in-law-to-be on his first night. So. Mach. Angry! Hazel finally meets Auri and it’s a legitimately sweet moment. Stephanie and Ryan look like they’re close to the end…before they ever begin. She speaks to him like she’s his mom, and he has had it. But who wouldn’t? Check out the first 15 minutes of the episode on IG (@KikiandKibbitz) and YouTube (Kiki and Kibbitz). There, you’ll see how hot Brad really is and how big Brianna’s drink really is (as well as her awesome sugarcane-fiber straw…keeping’ it sustainable, peeps!). Go get yo’self some cone bread and we’ll see you back here next week!--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

The latest RHOSLC is “shahbulous” and “shahmazing”! Mary is back just long enough to show off her 20K sq. ft. hoarder’s den and stir the pot against Jen. Has Mary been demoted to a friend-of? We learn that Heather’s ex withheld sex as punishment, but Meredith and Seth are ready to get it on. Sharrieff’s 90’s Hip Hop party is a hit- until it hits the fan! Drunk Whitney slurs out that Lisa and Meredith fear Jen, and that Meredith has a secret boyfriend. Wine glasses get smashed and Heather runs for cover as Jen has her 90th meltdown this season.

We’re back from our holiday vacation and wow — what an episode to come back to! We’re lulled into a false sense of security with the vapid James and Elizabeth making out in the hot tub (yawn…they deserve each other). Izzy’s complaining of a head cold (or is it the ‘Rona?). Then here comes yet another gaggle of drunken charter guests, who consume the boat’s entire store of Moet et Chandon in the first few hours. You know, par for the Below Deck course. But just when you think it is (literally) safe to get back in the water, things take a turn to the port side in a way no one sees coming. Instead of passing out like a normal drunk person, charter guest Delores is suddenly swaying at the rail, asking for fish food, while the tux-bedecked Captain admonishes her not to jump into the water. Undeterred, she abandons ship in her party dress, prompting Lee to erupt in a series of curses. Once she’s safely back aboard, the furious captain announces their charter is over. Is it? We’ll just have to tune in next week to find out.

Julia and Mike might be the only somewhat-normal people on this season. Julia is definitely TRYING, which is more than most rational people would do when faced with Brandon and his psycho parents. Although she’s (rightfully) terrified of the giant pigs (they’ll eat your babies), she negotiates with the hens and stays calm, even when Brandon’s mom humiliates them both for the hickey on her neck. Mike somehow retains his composure, too, even while Natalie tries to control his eating habits, his drinking habits, and anything else she decides she doesn’t like about him. So what if he thinks God’s an alien? Let the man eat his damn tomahawk steak. Yara and Jovi clearly deserve each other, although we felt bad for Yara after hearing about her miscarriage in Croatia. Stephanie’s cousins are reacting the way the rest of us are, re. Ryan — shaking their heads in disbelief. Rebecca moves into some kind of crazy warehouse, while poor Zied and his family tearfully say goodbye at the airport. Tarik tries to convince Hazel that French toast is breakfast food (Natalie didn’t buy it and neither does she) and wants them to get married in the spiritual center where Edward Cayce’s couch languishes behind velvet ropes. So. Much. Crazy. (Said in Zied’s accent.) Big thanks to Jen for filling in. See you next week!

Harvard trained psychologist and Camp Getaway cast member Dr. Monica O'Neal joins Jordan and Jen to discuss the hilarity and heinousness of Hilaria Baldwin's trans-nationality grift. (We see you, Hillary!) We also reflect on the RHOP reunion and Monica's experience of being turned into a negative archetype she couldn't even recognize.

Usman "Sojaboy" Umar stops by to check in, say hi, and let us know how his post-90-Day life is going since filming is over. Find out what life in Nigeria is like during COVID, how his music career is going (spoiler alert: he's got a new music video coming out!), and yes, even a little bit (well, more than a little) about Baby Girl Lisa. Our first video interview ever--check out the footage on YouTube here: --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

The Brooks Marks fashion show is here! One tracksuit- ten models? The ladies dive into their personal issues with a level of honesty that's rare among Real Housewives. Jen nearly lost Coach Shah because of her anger issues (thank you anti-depressants), and Lisa won't slow down her career to focus on family (8-year old Henry is ready to have triplets). While Whitney struggles to keep her dad sober, Heather has a heart-to-heart with her daughters about divorce, love, and her self-worth in the Mormon church. Meredith is still vague about the status of her marriage, so Jen drops the bomb that M has a boyfriend in NYC. There's nothing that Prozac and a Hitachi Magic Wand can't fix here!

It’s our last podcast of 2020, so, bottoms up, kids! On this charter, the guests are a cross between the Lucky Charms leprechaun and Rainbow Brite, once again proving that money can’t buy you class. That said, they might not be as entitled as Elizabeth, who finds “work” an imposition on her aspirations towards enlightenment or James, who thinks “taking work seriously” is a sign of poor character. That is why they call it “work,” children. But who cares—here comes Rob, who’s not only hot, but a brainiac, to boot. He comes from a long line of pirates and hookers…who could ask for more than that? Maybe in 30 years he’ll attain Captain Lee status (as IF that’s possible). Happy New Year, everyone—may 2021 be a year where no one ever comes armed with only one bottle of rosé, where we can once again travel freely, and where pandemics are just a thing you read about in the history books. Cheers!

The hilarity level stays high in this episode (we’re still so grateful The Other Way is over — so depressing!) with three beautiful Eastern European girls suffering intense culture shock. Julia is stunned that Brandon’s mommy wants to spend every waking minute with them and interrupt what could be a promising bang trip. Yara does not want to stay in the bayou with her swamp boyfriend and thinks his mom’s fricassée (which looks delicious) doesn’t have tasty flavors. Jovi demands to stay at mom’s overnight…probably because he wants to get drunk and not drive home. Natalie is terrified of how dark it is on the way to Squim and finds his house cold and dirty (and appears frightened of his cat). Hazel is also overwhelmed by Tariq’s big house, which he thinks is clean, but has half-eaten food in the kitchen and clutter everywhere she looks. This week we meet a new couple—Andrew and Amira. Amira is chic and French. Andrew wears funny hats and runs a daycare in Roseville, CA. This should be fun. We won’t be live next week, but will be airing an exclusive interview with Usman Sojaboy Umar! Happy holidaze!

It‘s Sundance season in SLC and these ladies are busy! Lisa Barlow is in mogul mode coordinating a jillion events (self-appointed #QueenOfSundance), and Meredith is prepping for Park City Fashion Week (Park City has a fashion week?). Jen’s film premiere at the Shah Chalet brings us a Pump Rules crossover with Katie and Lauren from Utah- but the main event here is watching Heather get her groove back!

Mary NEVER fails to sketch us out- how do you not know your cousin/housekeeper of 20 years?? Also, how are Brooks‘ generic tracksuits considered fashion? How did we not see that Brooks is like nails on a chalkboard before this?

Oh, yeah. She’s a bunny boiler. Chef Rachel has gone full psycho. We knew it was coming, but we had no idea how far it would go. We recap the episode, and then we spill all the inside tea (more to come later in the season, so stay tuned!). On this episode, Sunshine sinks down below the horizon and he finally gets that plane ticket home. Somehow, Elizabeth — who turns out to be an incessant complainer — survives. There are no participation medals in yachting, LIZ. A cautionary tale about alcohol, kids: some people (like us) just get silly when they drink. Others (like Elizabeth and James) get horny. Still others (like the bunny boiler) go full Mrs. Hyde and get straight up SCARY. Who said this season was boring? Side notes: 1) Brianna’s sound is a bit wonky, since her power went down and she had to record on her phone. 2) If you hear ice cubes clinking during the episode, that’s Jen, who’s on her second glass of rum (ask her how big a “glass” is—dare you). 3) And when you hear the ADORABLE accent and sexy voice, that’s our number-one fan, King Willie, who finally left us a voice message! Virtual hugs (with masks on), our friends. Stay safe, stay home, and please take care of each other.

The foreign spouses are landing and we’re taking bets on who’s going to break up first. The episode title “Shame on You” can definitely apply to 80% of the couples. Shame on Brandon for not telling Julia about the separate rooms. Shame on mom and dad for being so bass-ackwards, too. The shame doesn’t stop there — Jovi and Yara obviously hate each other. He’s completely unconcerned about her needs, and she’s yelling because his taste in decor is “I don’t care” and because she doesn’t have enough hangers. (They’re doomed.) Rebecca runs around telling everyone who will listen about what bad judgment she has for importing an obvious axe murderer with no job history. Mike has forgotten what a total bitch Natalie is and kicks poor uncle/cousin Beau out with his great moto jackets. Meanwhile, Hazel can’t wait to get to the US because of all the hot chicks. Then again, she’s coming to be with Tariq, who’s literally cutting up cilantro with a sword (yes, really). So, maybe she should get out quickly. Stay home, stay safe, and stay well, everyone. See you back here next time!--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

The chaos continues at Mary’s Met Gala luncheon when Jen Shah calls her out for a convenience store “phobia“. Poor Valter. 7/11 didn’t deserve this! Meredith’s marriage reaches a breaking point (Is she having an affair?? Will she make it work with Seth?), and Whitney is taking her dad to rehab.. again. Heather struggles with being the cool, modern mom and Mormon outcast, and Lisa FINALLY admits that she isn’t perfect. LB may throw Rolexes out the car window, but she still deserves gifts ”just for breathing”. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

Ahoy there, maties! Below Deck might be a little slow this week, but we’re as buzzed and enthusiastic as ever! That said, if we were charter guests, there’d be no spilling red wine all over the gorgeous teak deck. Sit your puppy ass on the porch, peeps, because it’s just bad form. Rachel has lost her fool mind, but not quite enough for Jen. We’d like to see a little more drama, but maybe we’re a bit desensitized after the shit show that was last season’s Below Deck Med. Captain Lee is as salty as ever, but can you blame him? UC Berkeley or no, Shane can’t even count to four to properly drop the fenders. Thrust this, baby (visualize Brianna flipping Shane off). The Americans on the show are just making us look bad, but we promise you, rest of the world, lots of us work plenty hard without complaining. (Look, we’re podcasting on a work night!) Stay safe, everyone. Wear your masks and stay home or you’ll leave Captain Lee standing on deck with his dick in his hands. Rate! Review! Subscribe! Share!

Ahhhh, another season of 90 Day Fiancé OG! We’re stoked—new season, new couples, new mess. And after the bummer that was 90 Day Fiancé The Other Way, it’s a welcome relief. First, we’ve got a demon man baby whose mom is so involved with him that she’s calling the OB-GYN to get birth control for her soon-to-be-imported Russian daughter-in-law. Next up, a cute Cajun boy who has the good sense to be nervous about his Ukranian fiancée (she’s not sure she loves him, soooo). Rebecca and Zied are back (so mach beautiful!), as are the ill-fated Mike and Natalie. The common thread? None of these fools should be together (and we’re here for it). Anyone want to take bets on who will break up first? Seems like an excellent drinking game. Stay well, stay happy, and stay home, everyone! Leave us a voice message here: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message. See you back here next week!

The man, the myth, the WWHL Clubhouse LEGEND, Jerry O’Connell, joins Stacy and Jordan for a very special edition of Kiki & Kibbitz! We discuss all things Real Housewives at the deepest of levels -- RHOC, RHOSLC, RHOBH, RHONY, and more. We dive into current headlines rocking the Bravosphere (divorces, bankruptcies, sobriety issues, and coming out), as well as his real-life experiences hanging with Bravolebs. Jerry has seen it all, met them all, and filmed with most...and now he’s on K&K to share! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

It’s a wrap for Season 2 of 90 Day Fiancé The Other Way! Unlike pretty much every other episode of the season, the finalé was almost upbeat — and not just because we’re so relieved it’s finally over. Ari and Bini get engaged, Brittany gets smart and leaves Jordan, Jenny is happy with a promise ring (geez), Deavan looks beautiful in her wedding dress (try to forget how that story ends), and Kenny and Armando literally ride off into the sunset. Thanks to our intrepid guest co-host, Stacy Noelle Conner, and stay tuned for the return of 90 Day Fiancé OG next week!

Champagne, caviar, and foie gras…all the things that expensive yacht charters are made of (except if you’re us, in which case, just bring on the bubbly). This season of Below Deck has finally started to heat up after a bit of a slow start. Somehow, Sunshine didn’t get fired after his nap (maybe next week) and Rachel is approaching full-tilt crazy. We object to the half-empty plates, of course. Gordon Ramsey is definitely screaming expletives at the screen, if he’s watching. It looks like something is missing (such as a giant slab of filet mignon…just sayin’). These guests aren’t quite as evil as Charley, but they’re still not folks you’d want to invite over for dinner. Basically, eff us in the mouth—if I’m cooking, keep your booty in the seat, yo. Elizabeth has crystals in her bra and seems like she would make a great match for stoner Shane. They’re equally sloppy about their work and flaky AF. At least this week’s beach picnic went better. Stay safe and visit https://beautysociety.com/kikiandkibbitz for the best skincare products we know…and to support your favorite podcasters (that’s us—duh!). Till next time, hugs, kisses, and champagne dreams, friends!--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

It‘s Thanksgiving week and RHOSLC is giving us a feast of drama to be grateful for! Heather copes with Mormon guilt as she plans a 5-mom baby shower, and Mary opens up to Meredith about her, umm, unusual marriage and wedding night. Brooks starts Vag-Gate against Jen Shah, and tensions boil over a canceled sleepover (Are they in junior high?). We get to see Preacher Mary in action at her church (that gold mic!), and Whitney’s Roaring 20’s party that isn’t very 20’s.

This week on Below Deck, we continue with Jax and Dax and Max (or whatever their names are — does it really matter?). Thanks to the slow pace of the interior staff, they’re so wasted that they’re basically two jello shots away from a jet ski accident. Lest you forget, those girls were LITERALLY starving. Someone, quick, tell them what literally means. And while you’re at it, explain what tipping is and why one should do it. The crew goes out for yet another ho-hum night, returning to the boat faster than any Below Deck crew ever. Maybe they bore each other as much as this episode is boring us. We close out the episode with Shane sleeping in his bunk while everyone else is working, sporting a “Do Not Disturb” eye mask. Eddie sees him and stalks off, hopefully to tell Captain Lee and end the collective torture. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Stay safe, wear your mask, and consider spending a quiet holiday at home. Cheers!

This episode of 90 Day Fiancé The Other Way was filled with tears and scary parents. Case in point: Sumit’s mom. She could kill a man with those laser-beam eyes and that terrifying, chubby index finger. The histrionics! We’ve never seen a grown man on his knees in front of his mother crying like that before. And hopefully, we never will again, because it requires way too much valium. She’s scary, but not as menacing as Yazan’s father, who is literally plotting his death. So endearing (yikes). Brittany finally has an "aha" moment and breaks down in tears that rival Jenny’s hysteria. Ari’s mom is pretty adamant that she doesn’t want her grandson growing up in Ethiopia (but she’s not as scary as the others). The moral of this episode: if your parents aren’t trying to kill you, you should remember how lucky you are. See why we’re waiting for 90 Day classic to come back? We need some damn laughs! Stay safe out there, people — wear your masks and remember…those little chlorine gas cards on lanyards will not prevent you from catching the ‘Rona!--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

Meltdowns on the snowy mountain tops of Utah! Jen’s party ends with a half-apology from Mary (Hospital Smell-Gate?) while Lisa and Whitney are just getting started on their tequila feud. Meredith (aka Brooks’ Mom) reveals that her marriage is on the rocks, and the ladies head for a staycation ski day at Snowbird. Weak skills on the slopes, but plenty of conflict at dinner over swingers and text etiquette. Does Lisa really radiate love and kindness? Is the thumbs up emoji a big F U? 👍👍

Just in case budgie smuggling wasn’t enough for you, this week on Below Deck gives us the gift of a naked woman covered with sushi (to which Jen objects violently, on the grounds that the human body sheds 40,000 skin cells a day. Why’d you have to ruin it for the rest of us, JEN?). This episode is full of all the stuff Bravo is made of — muscle-bound guys with one-track minds, ditzy blonds, and entitled rich kids. Captain Lee has had it with crying stews, broken ribs, and Sunshine. Vodka’s the answer, but an elusive one at that. The new guests are either self-made geniuses or those kids in your high school you always wanted to beat up. We’ve got a new stew and she’s charming, but already exhausted. So yeah, we’ve got even more crying in yachting on this episode. Grab your Dramamine…it’s gonna be a bumpy ride.

On this episode, Jenny and Sumit find out that they’re finally cleared to get married. Somehow, Sumit doesn’t look thrilled. Is homeboy having second thoughts? Ariela’s parents visit Ethiopia and Father Ari seems shocked that it’s a third-world country. We wonder if he knows how to use Google. They’re ready to start chipping in on the bills, but not before they tell Biny that he shouldn’t do what he loves, because he can’t support his daughter in the style to which she is accustomed. Again, Dad—Google is your friend. It’s not like there’s a booming tech market in Ethiopia and you knew he wasn’t a damn lawyer. We’re shocked that Yazan wasn’t more pissed off when he shows up to pick up Brittany and Angela and they’re effing WASTED. He’s so eager to win her back that he doesn’t even get pissed when she cuts off a lock of his hair. But the next day, he takes back what he said about being willing to wait a year to get married. Cheesedick and Melyza are a waste of screen time—prove us wrong. Kenny and Armando are still our faves, but not as much as Daughter Hannah, who understands better than anyone that love is love. In South Korea, Elicia is on her way for the wedding, and it’s making Jihoon incontinent. We’d feel the same way. She’s terrifying. Rate! Review! Subscribe! Share!

Welcome to RHOSLC with Stacy and Jordan! The Mormon capital brings us the most diverse Housewives cast ever, with Tongan, African-American, Jewish and Muslim cast members lighting up the screen. We have all the Botox, narcissism, garish designer clothes, and male strippers that we expect and need, PLUS Utah's Favorite Son, Brooks, and Bravo's first ever... Grandma-Wife? Granddaughter-Wife? What do we call Mary? Salt Lake does not disappoint!

This season of 90 Day Fiancé the Other Way makes the Americans look even more embarrassing than usual, which is saying a lot. Brittany thinks that Jordan is the perfect place for a girls’ trip, so she and her bestie Angela head to the marketplace, flashing lots of boob and toe cleavage. Girl, Yazan is already getting death threats...give that poor fool a break. Ariela and Binyam just refuse to lighten the mood. Ariela has reached full-tilt paranoia and is looking through Biny's phone for recipients of his ass-bongo treatment. Unclear whether she finds anything, but it seems apparent that this relationship is headed for dramatic self-destruction (and we’re here for it). Neither Deavan nor Melyza can move their faces, which is suspicious, since they’re both too young for botox. (That said, we are sincerely sorry about Deavan's miscarriage.) Mother Cheesedick arrives in Colombia and the passive aggression is palpable. Meanwhile, Jenny and Sumit are spending their time playing some kind of undefined paddle sport in their apartment, trying to get through lockdown. They think it’s going to be extended for two weeks. If you only knew, kids. Warning: this episode is more offensive than usual, so don’t let your toddlers listen. Stay safe, people, and we’ll see you back here next week!

Jen is literally drinking SKITTLES-INFUSED straight rum…that should tell you a lot about what’s in store for you on this episode! (And you thought that Brianna was the degenerate.) But now that we mention it, Jen’s liquor goes pretty well with the neon-themed dinner party on Below Deck this week. Poor Captain Lee is recovering from broken ribs, and now he has to deal with bears trying to f*ck a football and a sobbing chief stew. (Don’t worry, we didn’t understand that metaphor, either.) At least he’s not on service with Charley and his evil friends, who are never getting an invite to a Kiki and Kibbitz party. We’re glad that this was a light episode, because the world is too serious right now. So lift your glass, you yo-ho-hos, sit back, and take a minute! Once you’re good and lit, leave us a voice message at https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message. Maybe we’ll play it on next week’s episode!

O Captain, our Captain! He’s baaackkkk and he needs his pants creased a certain way and his goddamn Cheerios properly prepared — got it? We kick off the episode with Captain in the hospital after falling in the shower. Eddie channeled our own anxiety … we can’t lose him, too! Izzy doesn’t know how to make an espresso martini, which should warrant immediate dismissal. At least she gets punished with a face full of bidet water. Rachel the chef — whose Louis Vuitton bag, phone, and keys were stolen in the supermarket — promises to be an amusing watch. We can smell the shenanigans brewing in the galley. We’re already one deckhand down, so the drama has begun. The Bravoverse is having a bit of a tough time adjusting to the absence of our gorgeous, snarky Kate Chastain. Chief Stew Francesca is giving us major Hannah Ferrier vibes, which is triggering even more mourning. Change is hard. However, no matter WHAT, we’re so glad to have a break from Captain Lurk from Below Deck Med, right? Leave us a voicemail and let us know what you think! https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

From the 30-thousand-foot view, you could sum up this week’s episode of 90 Day Fiancé as “Mama Culture ain’t having your privilege.” All of the Americans are running up against major obstacles in their host countries…and losing. Brittany can’t understand that she can’t be with Yazan AND be a porn star/cam girl/rapper/whatever she is. Kenny is, sadly, facing the fact that gay rights in Mexico are a good five years behind the United States. Jenny is about to get a dose of reality after she realizes that there’s no way Sumit’s dad is going to say yes to their marriage…the list goes on. Sadly, we’re back to circumcision-gate this week, and it’s just as painful as last week. Jihoon’s got porn on his phone, and his friends have his back. Cheese Dick and Melyza are…well, who cares.

Ahoy there, maties! All aboard for the final episode of Below Deck Med Season 5! This week, we’re excited to welcome back the legendary OG of the Sea — our favorite guest Yo-Ho-Ho, Adrienne Gang! Adrienne was the first Chief Stew of the Below Deck franchise and was instrumental in the show’s conception. She’s full of behind-the-scenes scoop on the cast, Maritime Law, the very real need for Valium on board, and a host of strong (hilarious) opinions. We discuss how Captain Sandy and Malia sleep on a bed of lies, applaud Jess for telling those beasts to shut up and let someone else talk, and confirm that Rob is a roach and an affront to the human race. Let’s be real — we’re seasick as hell from this season and are happy it’s over. Join us this weekend for an exclusive interview with Below Deck Third Stew, Courtney Skippon…and get ready to kick off a new season of Below Deck classic, returning next week. See you then!

It’s Brad’s birthday and we’re gonna party like it’s a newborn’s first day home from the hospital (minus the sheep slaughter)! Whereas the fun of 90 Day Fiancé OG is watching bewildered foreigners be like fish out of water in the USA, The Other Way showcases the true obnoxiousness of the American people (your humble podcast hosts included). We will come to your country, flout your customs, reject your guacamole, and vomit at your sidewalk animal sacrifices. And that was just this episode! It’s hard to choose which American was most embarrassing on this episode — Ari, forcing Biny to walk home with the baby in the thousand-degree heat? Jenny, trying to give Sumit a ring before he’s divorced? Kenny, for jumping all over Armando for buying his kid a few bows and a snow cone? Deavan with her immature wedding fantasies? Brittany with her…well, just her everything? So. Many. Choices. We’ll let you decide. Tweet us at @KikiandKibbitz and let us know what you think. Feliz cumpleaños, Brad!

We’re in the final stretch, kids! Part 1 of the Below Deck Med Reunion is in the bag (and so are Jen and Brianna). This episode was mostly amusing, with the exception of the compulsive liar, Capt. Sandy, who continues to PISS US OFF. (We know we’re not alone in this!) Jen even provides hard evidence to contradict Sandy’s statement that she didn’t judge Hannah for not working in yachting outside of filming…Um, hay-lo, you said that in a recent article in Vanity Fair, lady! Andy does ask some of the tough questions (and Hannah does a great job of not answering them, too). Lots of areas remain to discuss—so tune in next week for our hard-hitting analysis. In the meantime, wear your life jackets and feel free to leave us a voice message at https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message. We look forward to hearing from you.

It’s so hard to decide who’s the most irritating cast member on this episode: Ariela? Deavan? Cheese Dick? So. Many. Options. It’s definitely not Jihoon, who brings up the most important issue of all—Americans’ dirty anals. We agree that if we all had bidets, the world would be a cleaner, less-offensive place. This episode also begged the question—without botox, why don’t some of these women’s faces move (we’re looking at you, Deavan, Melyza, and Melyza’s mom!)? Even more important, do we have to move out of the country to save money on botox? Inquiring minds want to know. In other news, Ari and Bini have their baby, Armando and Kenny are the most beautiful couple in the history of the show, Devan and Jihoon don’t know how to wash a rug, Brittany and Yazan make no sense (duh), and Melyza gaslights Tim.

Welcome to episode 1 of Kiki and Kibbitz’ new 90 Day Fiancé The Other Way podcast, featuring Brianna and our newest co-host, Brad! It’s been six weeks, but we pick right up where we left off—with Brittany in Chicago. We knew she was a dummy, but we thought she might be smart enough to realize that you have to file for divorce to have one granted. Her mom has a lot more sense than she does, explaining that there’s something wrong when your man wants you to delete your social media profile. Granted, Mama’s taste in wine is questionable, but she’s still the smartest person on this episode. While fashion has never been a strong suit of this show, Ariela’s makeup makes us question whether she might hold stock in Wet n Wild. In India, Sumit is trying to prove he grew a pair since episode 14. While it’s hard to understand what they see in each other, we agree that he and Jenny do actually seem to be in love. In Mexico, Armando finally introduces Kenny to his family and unexpectedly blurts out the fact that they’re engaged. The reception is muted, at best. (Turns out that crickets sound the same in Spanish.) Like everyone else, we’re cheering hard for these two. During these crazy times, it’s nice to remember that real romance still exists in the world. If you love 90 Day TOW as much as we do, tweet us at @KikiandKibbitz and let us know what you thought about the episode!--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

It’s been a long, rocky, seasickness-inducing ride, but the boat is finally in dry dock, people. It’s the season finale! This episode felt a lot like dejá vu. The same charter guests that have been on the yacht for the last three episodes are still on board and still bitching about how long the food is taking to come out. But Z must be punking us, because she leaves a huge tip—bringing the total for the season to a whopping $171,500! Not bad for six weeks of scrubbing latrines and kissing arse. The crew is overjoyed, even pretending to be happy when Capt. Sandy whips out the fake award certificates she made for them with the 1998 version of Microsoft Publisher. You know she’s full of crap when she compliments Malia for her sense of humor. Jess and Rob drag us through the cringey dying embers of their ill-fated relationship. At the bar, Rob is doing his best to make sure Jess sees him flirting with the guests who have “accidentally” found them there, sending her into an epic tailspin (again). Girl, move ON already. Despite lots of schmalzy music and insincere reflection, the crew finally leaves the boat and leaves us to move on to the reunion…and it looks like a juicy one!

It’s the penultimate episode of the show and Brianna and Jen are taking sides on Butt-Touch Gate and whether or not Rob is even worth the effort. Bafflement abounds when it comes to figuring out why Tom can’t understand what “No Pork or Beef” means...twice. We finally give in and admit that in the landscape of Below Deck, Bugsy is a pretty great chief stew. There are moments of analyzing Captain Sandy’s persistent hypocrisy, as well as some straight-up fan girling over Captain Lee and Kiko’s Watch What Happens Live episode. Don’t miss out! Only one more episode left before we get some real-time dish at the reunion.

Season 12 of the Real Housewives of New York may be over for Bravo, but not for Kiki and Kibbitz! Today, we feature Reunion part 4, starring none other than Elyse Slaine, cryptocurrency mogul and friend to the NY Housewives. In this candid interview, Elyse tells the story of the rise and fall of her relationship with the Singer Stinger (spoiler alert: she got stung). Hear what really happened behind the scenes with their relationship. Find out who else she has known for years, who she just met recently, and how she feels about them all. Far from a hate-fest, Elyse takes responsibility for her own actions and reflects on how it all skidded off the rails. It’s a don’t-miss episode!

On this week’s episode of Below Deck Med, we jump right in where last week’s left off—with the demon baby chef man throwing a big tantrum. While at one point, this might have made us mad, we’re so jaded at this point (is this the 100th episode of the season?), that we just see it as amusing karma for Malia, who’s scrambling to save his juvenile arse from himself. After Tom yells at Bugsy, Captain Sandy tells her off, too, for enabling the crazed Englishman. We felt so sorry for Bugs that we almost forgot why we didn’t like her before this season. But we were gleeful once again when the Captain put him on blast in front of the crew. She loses her composure and gets a little emotional. But serves her right—she’s lost control and they’re all going down with the ship. As befits almost every episode, the guests are horrific monsters who behave in ways that rabid dogs would find shockingly aggressive. Most monstrous of all might be Rob, however. The dude with the way-too-aggressive face is gaslighting Jessica by making her appear irrationally jealous. But is it irrational? Spoiler alert: NO.

That’s a wrap for Season 12 of RHONY! Reunion Part 3 was Sonja’s time to shine. Though we know now that Century 21 folded, her digs at Ramona for fat-shaming her were epic. Andy is not above crawling on the ground for HW text receipts, but Dorinda and Ramona are at a stalemate in their friendship, and it’s hard to decide who’s worse. Luann gets a half-apology from Mrs. Medley (progress!), while freshman Leah is still sniffing out her loyalties with these ladies. Is this the final farewell for Dorinda, or a C U Next Season?

Season 12 isn't quite over for Kiki & Kibbitz, though! Join us next week for a very special RHONY guest--you'll never guess who, but it will be JUICY. See you then!

Brianna and Jen cover all of Tom’s antics, Rob and Jess’s moans and groans, and the overall disgust factor of underwear hanging over your dinner table — but not before they do a deep dive into the hot topic du jour: Sandy’s Cameo video. Brianna thinks it’s a fireable offense, but Jen (no stranger to tin-foil hat theories) thinks there’s something much more nefarious going on. Join them and see if Tom is the only one in need of a 5150 or if Jen should get an adjoining padded cell.

It’s the gift that keeps on giving. Part 2 of the Real Housewives of New York reunion picks right up where part 1 left off, without losing an iota of momentum. Too bad Tinsley’s boxing coach wasn’t there to defend her against the blond pit bull. Even sober, Dorinda deflects, deflects, deflects, and then goes for the jugular. Luann is the voice of reason, which makes us wonder if she’s been kidnapped and replaced by aliens. We relive the hilarious drunken cast trips, as well as the middle-aged cougars pouncing on every man they suspect has “jeans full of magic.” Ramona once again demonstrates that she does not understand how viruses are transmitted. She also denies having had a full facelift (but Jordan shares the behind-the-scenes story, as always!). We laughed, we cried, we got wasted. See you next week!

Be it yutz, putz, dick, prick, or git...when it comes to Tom they all seem to fit. Brianna and Jen treat you to another ragecast. But this time, there’s yet another crew member pissing us off. As Captain Lee would say, the whole thing has us madder than pissed on chickens. Rob and Jessica are back on their love boat, but it only lasts as long as he’s not cozying up to Aesha. The brooding gaslighter runs so hot and cold that Jessica doesn’t know whether to pack a bikini or a fur coat for Bali. Malia’s decided she doesn’t have time to supervise Rob, but considering she only manages three employees that doesn’t say much for her leadership abilities. Maybe if she spent a little less time in the galley she’d have a few minutes to spare. Tom is the most deserving of our venom, considering that he won’t stop swearing after being forced to get up and do his job instead of enjoying afternoon delight with Malia. We thought we missed Kiko before, but now we want him back more than ever. (Note: Brianna had a bit of a sound issue with her mic--hope you'll forgive us this time as we fix the problem!)

Part 1 of the RHONY Reunion is here and the ladies are gorgeous and glowing (some a perfect bronze, others a jaundice yellow!). Ramona’s tone-deaf COVID antics strike a nerve with everyone, while Leah survives her freshman season as the future of the show. The stars of Part 1 are Dorinda’s rage and everyone’s drinking. We finally learn all about John’s shady business with Tinsley and Scott, and witness Dorinda’s jealousy-induced amnesia. What they can’t decide on is who is this season’s worst drunk, but our bets are on Mrs. Medley.

The Potomac ladies are…fishing? Yes! And it’s hilarious. It’s like these women have never been outside before. That said, we completely agree with Candiace that bugs are unacceptable. (It will probably be the only time we agree with her, so let’s all relish the moment.) After the ridiculous finger-pointing fight with Ashley, Wendy finally sort of/kind of/maybe apologizes. She explains her perspective, which is legitimately complicated (because of her premature baby). Of course, none of it was Ashley’s fault. Ashley was gaslighted into bringing baby Dean after Michael made her feel like she’d be a bad mom for leaving him for a weekend. DUDE. But then we find out that maybe there was a reason he delivered this guilt trip—like the STRIP CLUB. Once again, the rumor mill is buzzing with allegations that this scumbag (we dare anyone to say they like him) has his iron in other fires, besides Ashley’s traumatized naughty bits. Can’t wait until next week! Hope you’ll join us then. Let us know how you feel about #RHOP this season so far! Tweet us or tag us on IG (@kikiandkibbitz both places).

This week's episode may not have been as offensive as the past several, but Brianna and Jen find plenty to complain about, starting with Rob. The brooding, faux-cerebral model's airs seem like an excuse to be lazy and toy with Jess's heart. Johnny Damon proves that money and World Series rings can't buy you class. And Sandy is more concerned about her breakfast than her 3rd stew's heart palpitations. What hasn't changed? Malia still sucks.

Viva La Diva! It’s the #RHONY finale and Jordan’s farewell is a moving rendition of Luann’s new single. Let it not be said that there is nothing we won’t do for you, dear listeners. This was kind of a sweet episode, as far as most of the relationships were concerned. Legitimate exception: DORINDA. Girl, we just can’t with you and it seems like the Bravo editors feel the same way. We also get treated to Sonja’s drag party (where she’s pissed at Ramona for bringing a straight guy—her sloppy seconds, as usual—and she takes the mic to let everyone know), Lu-man doing her thing as often as she can co-opt the mic, and Leah just…fitting in?! That took a turn! But in the end, it was an iconic season—one of the best ever. One big, drunk slumber party. And we’re here for it. Onto the reunion and then goodbye till next time. Sniff. Wild ride. Have a great week and tune in for #RHOP and #BelowDeckMed!

AHOY THERE, MATIES! Double play this week—Johnny Damon and Aesha are baaccckkk. The American baseball player and his (er, ahem, cough, cough) charming wife are back on charter, ready to keep it classy, as always. After all, nothing says “class” more than your drunk guest staggering and falling in the first 10 minutes into charter, right? And speaking of class, well, Aesha might not have any, but she’s beyond welcome back to this shitshow of a season where almost no one is likable at all (Jess not included…who could dislike her?). That said, Captain Sandy and Malia are always there to bring the bitch factor. Once again, Captain Sandy, who has zero self-awareness, baits the guests to complain about the food. Next at bat, everyone’s got a problem with Rob, even us. He’s sulky and inappropriate and says all the wrong things to everyone on this episode. Malia, of course, seems gleeful to have yet another person to talk shit about. We wrap up the episode worried about Jess—hope she’s ok! What did you think about this week’s episode?

They’re living for the shade from the African Grey and Karen’s stepping up her shade to keep up. But does Karen have a perch to stand on after that pink monstrosity she wore last week? Wendy comes in hot and no one is here for it. Plus trying to figure out who is the worst husband/partner proves to be a challenge because there are so many to choose from.

Brianna and Jordan get the inside scoop on Dorinda’s surprise departure AND Laurie’s possible future on Bravo—maybe Housewives? Million Dollar Listing? Her own show? One never knows! We break down this week’s episode with all the highlights (Ramona and Elyse. Hannah’s Roseanne jacket. Luann’s hostage cabaret!) and forecast the future of RHONY as the season draws to a close.

Some of you remember her as the first Chief Stew ever on the first season of Below Deck, while others know her from her recent Reddit threads clarifying some of the technicalities of “Maritime Law.” Adrienne Gang joins Brianna and Jen to walk them through everything from how Below Deck came to be (did you know she helped develop the show years before the first season?) all of the way to what’s happening during this fecal fest of a season. Was Malia out of bounds to go into Hannah’s bag and pull out her medication and take a picture? Was Captain Sandy obligated to fire Hannah? How real is Below Deck, anyway? Most importantly: would she do it all again? Get ready for some v-e-r-y candid opinions and surprising (and hilarious) answers in this super-sized episode.

Relationships are front and center on this week’s episode of Real Housewives of Potomac. First, we see Gizelle trying to understand and consider her daughters’ opinions on her reuniting with Pastor/Cheater Jamal. (Spoiler alert: they’re probably right to be concerned.) Monique and Chris have some essential misunderstandings (she wants to feel loved and supported; he wants more booty). Candiace and Gizelle get into it (but you ARE a Gizelle monster, G!), while Candiace and Ashley try to mend fences. Although Karen says she’s working on winning Ray back, the Huger housewarming party looks much more like Fiesta De La Karen, with “Ks” everywhere and no “Hs” in sight. And absolutely NO ONE understands what Karen is doing in that hideous Pepto-Bismol colored suit. Enjoy!

RHONY has a lot of issues with pantalones in Mexico! Ramona is pooping hers (WTF), and Dorinda is rocking a pair from Roseanne’s sofa afghan (ICONIC). Dr. Singer sends a group text diagnosis for Dorinda’s anger issues, but Mrs. Medley’s prescription is the RadarOnline archives of Ramona’s bad behavior. Leah and Bunny remind us again that therapists don’t always make great mothers, and Sonja finally gets her big day in business (sans the toaster oven)! Maybe Ramona can design a line of Depends to sell at Century 21.

It’s Below Deck Med time again! We know we’re not alone in our continuing rage towards Captain Sandy and Malia, but we have to soldier on, friends. (Kiko and Hannah would want that for us!) In other news—holy crap, these guests are straight-up disgusting. Seeing that fat old naked man running around with a baby-arm-sized dildo gave us PTSD and we will never be the same again. We debate whether Bugsy was scared or smug when she found out she’d be chief stew. But the biggest and best news was Chef Tom’s self-destruction, which is the best karma for the evil twins.

Mani from @MixingWithMani joins us this week to talk about Real Housewives of Potomac! This bubbly DC girl spills the tea and shares her special brand of insight with us. But insight aside, we all agree that Candiace is insufferable, Gizelle is shady AF (and we’re here for it), and Michael Darby is a POS. And no one is arguing with Gizelle’s daughters’ intuition about their father. If they are concerned about Mr. Chocolate’s character, well, Gizelle should be, too. Dr. Wendy comes out swinging this week and we find out that she’s as shady as she is intelligent and accomplished. In other news, Charrisse is still annoying, Monique is still a goddess, we’re sick of hearing about Ashley’s anal tear, and we love when Bravo breaks the fourth wall!

David also shares his predictions about the future of the franchise in light of Bravo’s attempts to be more woke and conspires with Jordan to gaslight Brianna about the scene with the shamanic ritual and the birds.

What can we say? It’s another rage-cast! We try to keep it light by upping our rum consumption (you decide if it worked or not!), but it is what it is. And here’s what it is: MALIA AND SANDY SUCK. Malia has gone from prissy and annoying to scheming and vindictive. C’mon, girl, you don’t go looking for “evidence” in someone’s purse. And the way you told the Captain? Oh, hell no. You’ve lost us for good. Meanwhile, Brianna shares her girl crush (that arse, though!), we evaluate Tom, and talk about cabin-gate. Make no mistake, though: We’re #TeamHannah all the way. Let us know what YOU think—should Malia have reported this? Tweet or IG message us at @kikiandkibbitz!

Season 5 of Real Housewives of Potomac is building momentum, honey! Karen and Ray look like they’re headed for high-intensity drama. Hell froze over and Monique and Gizelle are attempting to be friends (let’s take bets on how long that lasts). Ashley has lost her fool mind and won’t leave the house, so the ladies throw her a party. Candiace (who peed on a stick for no apparent reason and is not pregnant--thanks for wasting our time) is there. Monique is PISSED because she had to dodge a warthog or a walrus (she’s not sure which). Ashley has a tear in her anus (thanks for the info) and Wendy might enter the shade contest. We’re here for all of it! We also discuss Bravo’s Race in America special, which we found outstanding. We hope you did, too. Let us know what you think! Tweet us at @kikiandkibbitz or tag us on IG with the same handle. See you next week!

Bienvenido al la shtshow! Dr. Ramona has a diagnosis for everyone, and sadly, she's not all wrong. Dorinda and her 3(00) wine spritzers, Sonja and her "water pills." Luann hops back on the camel and Leah is keeping the peace! How did she keep a straight face with Ramona's maternal delusional* lecture? How did that waiter balance four margaritas on his head? How are we all not in AA just from watching this? We'll see you at a meeting soon!

There just isn’t a nice spin to put on it, we are mad as hell and tired of the micromanaging. Captain Sandy destroyed one of the sweetest spirits ever to grace the deck and it doesn’t look like firing Kiko is going to satisfy her power trip. Brianna and Jen break down the saddest goodbye in Below Deck Med history and talk about the conspiracy theories that are flying around about next week’s episode. Jen (infused with some liquid courage) fulfills a listener request, too, causing pigs to fly out of Brianna’s arse! Don’t miss it.

The Potomac ladies are back and it’s off to a shady start. Good thing nothing has changed, despite all the damn babies. Gizelle is back with her ex-husband, cheater/pastor Jamal, and we’re dubious. Once a cheater, right? Certainly once a hypocrite… In other marital news, Karen admits that her marriage is on the skids, Robyn and Juan are back--no, never mind. SSDD. Ashley and Michael are still gross, Candiace’s husband is still acceptable (for a Real Househusband), and she’s still ghetto fabulous. And, of course, Monique and Chris are still rich as hell and charming, to boot. (#relationshipgoals) What’s more, Monique can potty train a bird AND a four-month-old at the same time, while taking care of two bigger kids and somehow managing to look ah-maze-ing (nothing new there!). It’s off to a roaring start and looks like it will be an explosive season!

Let’s call this one #CancelRamona! Singer’s tackiness turns to cruelty as she attacks Leah’s mental health, then hides from her in NY AND Cancun like the coward that she is. Ramona greets the villa staff as her “servants galore," and we all hope that they spit in her ceviche. Luann shows a soft spot at her spa day for ex-felons and Katharine McPhee bangs. Dorinda has Leah’s back--but has anyone checked on Sonja?? There was A LOT more going on than rosé in her Coca-Cola.

There’s no other way to say it: This week’s episode of #BelowDeckMed pissed us off royally. Sure, go after Hannah, Sandy. She can handle it. But leave our Kiko alone! (We’re changing our name to “Kiko & Kibbitz," ok?) This episode ruined any remaining tolerance or fond feelings left over from previous seasons. We’re done, Captain. Done, I say! Most everything else is up for spirited debate. Was Malia’s “rescue” overdramatized? Did Hannah sabotage Kiko? Is Jess getting scapegoated? So. Many Questions.

Luann is now the Countess de Prison Reform after her one night in Palm Beach. Sonja’s a quadruple threat- townhouse renovations, Ivy League lectures (WTF?), 86’d from a gay bar, AND trashing Ramona’s Not-So-Sweet Sixtyteen! Singer came through with her 50 closest acquaintances, but Leah and Lady Morgan provided the entertainment. Let’s hope stomping on a mirror brings seven more seasons of good luck.

It feels like Captain Sandy is playing a Below Deck version of Where’s Waldo, because she’s turning up in every scene. Kiko deals with the brunt of her hovering, on top of having to deal with Bugsy’s eye rolls over his sushi rolls. But It isn’t only Kiko’s skin that Bugsy is getting under. Even peaceful Jess goes at it with her, because she had the AUDACITY to ask her to try to enunciate more clearly over the radio. (We’re pretty sure you can guess who Sandy sided with in that bout!) Tensions also manifest between Malia and Rob, Sandy and Hannah, and even between the vegan demon and the poor innocent gluten-free pasta. Someone sage this boat, STAT! The negative energy has taken over.

Bluestone Manor needs Betty Ford Berkshires as the rosé fueled chaos continues. Dorinda flies back into her worn-out Jovani rampage and the Cabaret Countess flees in tears. Don't worry--all is forgiven the next day because no one can remember the night before. Leah made out with Luann and Elyse AND peed on a prince. Regal! Ramona now thinks that she's a dignified One Percenter, but we all saw what she did to that bathroom.

Jen and Brianna go a little off track this week…more than usual, anyway. Blame it on the rum, the fact that we’re easily distracted, or just go with it. After a long discussion about poor Jess, her amazing toughness, and her finger (as well as a detour to talk about how to detect whether someone is wearing extensions or not), we make sure to emphasize that Rob BETTER NOT F*CK WITH OUR GIRL. On this episode, Bugsy has a shining moment when she tells Capt. Sandy that Pete is basically a sexual-assault case ready to happen. And our intrepid Captain pulls no punches as she lets him know exactly how she feels about this situation. Malia tries to pile on afterwards, but too little, too late, girl. After that, Bugsy is basically unbearable—two-faced and pretentious AF. But the “meat” of the episode is those annoying vegans, who basically push our poor carnivorous Kiko over the edge. Rate!

Whether you prefer to call it the Jerkshires or the Berserkshires, one fact remains the same: these women always go crazy when they visit. This time the decor is just as nuts as the behavior and Brianna and Jen break down all of the fights, as well as the tacky style. Should Ramona just leave the show already? Does Leah have anyone she can really bond with? And who let the Diva Countess out of the padlocked exorcism box? Halloween may be over, but these ladies are still scary as hell.

Kiko isn't only a ray of Brazilian sunshine, but he's also a miracle worker. We break down the dinner for 12, Jess and Rob's romance (is he really single?) and try to figure out how a financial advisor can't do the math to leave a decent tip. Plus we share some of your thoughts from the Podcast Question of the Week!

Real Housewives of New York is back and we’re divided on the prognosis. Jordan says this episode fell flat, while Brianna—desperate for quarantine content—was more easily amused this week. Jill Zarin makes a lackluster appearance and the women compete to see who can be the drunkest and the bitchiest (Dorinda may have won both distinctions). In some ways, these ladies are the most patriotic among us: they sacrifice their sobriety and dignity so that we don’t drive each other insane during these crazy times. Happy 4th of July!

Bugs is back. Although she says (like five times) that she's "bringing the thunder," she's basically a class-A ass kisser and Captain Sandy could not be happier about it (which is good, since everyone else seems to be pissing her off this season). The captain follows the new second stew around, loudly complimenting her every move and making everyone else feel uncomfortable. Although Hannah’s pretty put out with the captain, she seems genuinely happy about Bugs’ er, ahem, “great” table decor, finally realizing that her top-notch performance makes them all look better. Jess is worried that she might lose ground with Hannah, but she’s so dickmatized by Rob that she quickly forgets about it. With the exception of Scout, the guests on this charter are rude and entitled AF, leaving Hannah to mutter “I hate my job” under her breath. We see why, given that she’s basically a combination maid/waitress on a floating hotel. Seems like the perfect time for retirement!

It’s time for the Bravo cameras to turn on Lisa Rinna. After six seasons of throwing heinous accusations at other cast members--drugs, drinking, diseases--we have to wonder what’s going on behind her closed doors. The fat-shaming! The gaslighting! The swastika! Did Harry move out? TIME TO OWN IT.

Tensions are running high as the crew works to finish the charter with only two stews (not counting Kiko’s moqueca!). We find out that Bugsy will be the new 2nd, but whose idea was it? Certainly not Hannah’s. Is it production playing games? Malia getting her friend back on the show? Or Captain Sandy missing the heck out of Bugsy’s table decorations? Regardless of the answers, one thing is clear: if looks could kill, a boatload of people would be in Davey Jones’ Locker right now.

Well, Captain Sandy didn’t fire her, but she’s gone. Whether she was a production plant or not, Lara was definitely the bitchiest second stew the Below Deck franchise has seen yet. Maybe she’s a great actress. If so, she definitely has a future in film (if the role involves playing a mega-bitch on a mega-yacht). Meanwhile, back on the yacht, Pete’s got a problem with authority, at least when it comes to Malia. It speaks volumes when he shares that he was inspired by a female Domino’s owner he knew. Not because she was a great leader, but because if a woman could do it, he OBVIOUSLY could (our inference, but that’s what we do—we drink and we know things). How’s that working out for you now, deckhand? Any pizza empires in your future? That’s what we thought. Rate! Review! Subscribe! Share! XO

Seems appropriate that everyone was wearing costumes on this episode, since most of these ladies are fake AF. Dorinda has been nailing Tinsley to the wall for not sharing enough of her real life, but when she shares the news that she’s moving to Chicago to be with Scott, she’s just as contemptuous. Seems obvious that Dorinda is just looking for more ammunition for her taunts. In this episode, like the last two, she gets plain NASTY—lobbing insults about everything from Tinsley’s hotel room (which is bigger than some apartments we’ve lived in) to her not having children. Jealous, much?! #nobullying! #RHONY is on hiatus for two weeks…hopefully, we’ll be back with a cool bonus episode next week. Stay safe!

Who is the worst stew in Below Deck history and why is it Lara? How can Sandy see everyone else’s mistakes, but miss every insubordinate incident from her 2nd stew?

TEAM RAVIOLI! Getting the cast of RHONY to stumble 10ft from the bar to the dinner table is like herding cats. Ramona and Sonja think drunken-aggro cougar antics are "proper" behavior. Leah speaks for us all when she chucks the pasta at Singer. Is this season heading to the Emmys or rehab?

Move over, Scary Island: Newport’s in da HOUSE. If RHONY was a competition to be the biggest drunk, we’d be hard-pressed to place odds, because this crew has alcoholism down to a science. On this episode, Leah literally goes off the deep end, babbling incoherently while running around and doing cartwheels in some strange manic state. Ramona can’t decide whether allowing Leah’s sister to join them is right or wrong, but Sonja isn’t concerned about propriety—just about making sure no outsider infiltrates their little circle.

In the New York equivalent of Atlanta-level shade, Leah invites the OLG downtown to join her for a “spa day” at a sketchy-looking Russian bathhouse. Of course, they’re terrified (and we’re here for it). Tinsley won’t hand over her jewelry to the clerk with the flimsy-looking safety deposit box and who can blame her? Jordan breaks it down for us…would you leave $200k at that front desk? Next, Dorinda gets an intervention, but turns it right back around on Ramona (who deserves it, but hello—defensive much?), instead of trying to pick up what they’re putting down. This iconic episode ends with Dorinda in full meltdown mode at a “networking party” at Ramona’s apartment and Sonja’s revelation that Ramona was fat-shaming her. Rate! Review! Subscribe! Share!

What is going on with Dorinda? No, really. What IS going on with Dorinda? This alcohol-soaked episode was 100% hilarious (as Brianna notes like 5 times—100% overkill). After a tour of her neighborhood of yesteryear (Grey Gardens says what?), Mrs. Medley spends the rest of the episode being drunk and disorderly, doing her best to replace Bethenny, but missing the mark completely.

JACQUES IS BACK and Luann's old paramour looks like he's back from the grave, as well. The Frenchman is also engaged and Luann "couldn't be happier for him." (Why did that sound so insincere?) She tries to help him kick off a comedy career, but no one is laughing. It was so un-funny, in fact, that we completely forgot to mention this on the podcast. In other news, Luann is drinking again and we're evilly delighting in her fall from grace. What is it about someone like Luann that makes you just want to knock her off her throne? (Maybe because she thinks is on a throne?) Her friends also seem happy, probably because they think it makes them look less like alcoholics, by comparison. And speaking of drinking, Sonja's not doing it--except for tea and soup (WTF?). Dorinda is a "full-figured size 6" and Brianna wants to rage text her about it.

It's coming down to the wire on this penultimate episode of this unprecedented season. Normally, the end would be in sight for one or two dominant players. Not this time.

Spoiler alert (ok, not really): In this episode, we stay consistent with our deep contempt for Adam, Ben, and Denise. (If you’re seeking fairness, you’ve got the wrong podcast, people.) On the other hand, Jeremy’s attitude during tribal council may have finally tarnished our blatant adoration. At this point in the game, the wheat is separating from the chaff. Some players are descending into madness (hello, Sarah!), while others seem to be developing strange, hypnotic powers (hello, Tony!).

We challenge you to name another show in the history of television that started with a drunk naked woman throwing a flaming tiki torch. Go on--prove us wrong. The party in the Hamptons was every frat party ever rolled into one, but substituting crazy drunk middle-aged women for frat bros. It's reallllly easy to see why Miss Leah "doesn't drink." Also "not drinking" is Countess Luann, who is spotted by astute Twitter users sneaking a sip of red wine. Sonja's "I'm in the Blue Book" meltdown is epic.

Another artful episode of #RHONY, kicking off and closing with Luann grousing about her rooming situation at Ramona’s house. Oh, the poetic irony. Whether it was a subtle dig from Ramona or not, it’s still somehow soothing to see the Countess up to her old tricks. And although sober Luann is a novelty (and let’s face it, half of us can’t wait until she falls off the wagon again), at least we have sweet, drunk Sonja in full alcoholic swing. Like Jordan, talking about old money just makes her want to get shitfaced. (Is she looking for a new boy toy? He’s single.) And speaking of boy toys, Ramona is always on a stealth date and the girls are getting pissed. Is she searching for a new partner or getting lots of quickies? You decide. Either way, she’s a full-blown status-seeking bi-atch and Sonja’s had enough of it. She’s triggered, treating us to a full-scale drunk meltdown. Ahhhh, it’s good to be back.

It’s family visit time and everyone is crying. Except Brianna. Because she’s dead inside. In this episode, we analyze one of the toughest challenges the game has ever seen and marvel that we were actually cheering Tony on (because Ben was our alternative!). On the other hand, Sophie is a hag. Jen says so, so it’s obviously true. Alliances are built and toppled in minutes. Tyson feels the pain and flips ‘em all the bird. At least he got his first Survivor family visit. Rate/review/subscribe/share!

Join Jordan and Jen as they analyze the Key West trip. Is Shaan pretentious? Are we finally seeing the real Richa? And how in the world did it go from pole dancing to sucking a big bag of Ds in the Keys?

TATTOOGATE IS ON!!! (Srsly?) The Cray Cray Cronies of the Upper East Side have already found a reason to look down on the new girl. After all, people with tattoos might kidnap you (y'all better stay away from Brianna!) and you don't even need a tramp stamp to be a tramp. When did this crew get so prim and proper? Meanwhile, who kidnapped Luann and replaced her with someone who gives a shit? In 12 seasons, it's the first apology she's ever uttered. In this episode, we also find out that Ramona is not the only one who apparently cannot pack her own suitcase. And speaking of Dorinda...we are seriously questioning her mental health at this point. Bottom line: when Tinsley and Leah are the normal ones, you know the world has gone completely mad. Stay safe! Stay home! Rate! Review! Subscribe! Share!

Join Brianna and Jen as they discuss this week’s episode and Jen tries her hand at Gujarati. Dharma has your hosts cracking up, but her son Brian might get a dressing down as they revisit his passive-aggressive attitude towards Monica. Friendsgiving is on the menu, as are a litany of Anish’s phobias. Is marriage one of them? The love of all things Gopal abounds and they give their predictions on whether Key West is a bang or a bust. Don’t miss out on the laughter & fun! (Jen even swears...sort of)

Bye Skinnygirl! Welcome back drunk Countess! B is gone and Lu's probation is done. How long before the vodka kicks in? Ramona couldn't fake cry--or pick a good weave--to save her life, and Sonja's apartment is right back at Grey Gardens (#hoarder). Leah is fun AND familiar--she's been hovering around Bravo for a decade trying to secure that apple. Dorinda says that Tinsley sleeps with men for shoes...but is sleeping with John for free dry cleaning that much better?

Everyone is dropping their buffs, but Richard Hatch (TBT winner, Season 1) isn’t on this season, so no one is actually in the buff. The merge is here! Does Brianna love more people than she hates? Is Jen finally warming up to Tyson? Can anyone be a bigger whiny baby than Adam? Tune in and find out!

Fire Tower goes down in flames when Bali reads Vishal and Amrit for the awkwardness with Anish. If the village idiot can't apologize here, he has no chance at surviving life with Lopa. Love is in the air as Nicholas comes to town and Monica pursues her passion... for DANCE. If Brian wanted it, then he should have put a ring on it.

It’s the ultimate showdown. A Battle Royale between Brianna and Jen over whether or not quitters can still be queens. We pull no punches as we break down this week’s jaw-dropping episode. Does Jen’s uppercut land squarely on Sandra’s chin? Who deserves a throat punch more--Wendell, for being a perpetual jerk, or Michelle, for setting women back a millennium or two? Who are the hottest guys on this season? And most of all...who can we root for (and bet on) now that Yul’s been sent to EOE? (What do you think about Sandra's departure? Did she resign her title? Take sides on Twitter and tag @kikiandkibbitz to let us know or leave us a voice message!)

A pool party funeral for Schwartz’ lizard: EXTRA. An extra themed birthday party with Sandoval on stilts: EXTRA annoying. James gets his annual intervention from LVP, and delusional Lala’s ego needs an intervention of its own. The Witches of WeHo are quitting...so Katie will have more time for knitting?

Join Brianna & Jen as they take sides and stands when the first friendship fractures appear on Episode 3 of Family Karma! Is Bali a pot stirrer or just a good friend? Is Vishal avoiding stress or creating it? Is there a better one-liner generator on this cast than Anish? (Spoiler alert: NO!) We also explore whether Brian and Monica are a real-life Aladdin and Jasmine...or just people who understand great cuisine at highly appropriate times.

Welllll, boys and girls, all good things must eventually come to an end--even this explosive season of #RHONJ. Collective sigh. In this final installment of the reunion, we conclude the saga of Teresa and Joe, watch the unceremonious dumping of Danielle the Dumpster Fire, and see Marge and Teresa finally make up. Bonus: Jennifer Aydin keeps her mouth shut! It all ends with the most curiously bizarre interpretation of a "time capsule" and a box of donuts with something to prove. Stay safe out there, everyone. Giant symbolic air hugs to you all. XO

It's only fitting that Jen and Brianna should hold a virtual cocktail party to recap one of the best-ever episodes of Survivor. Ohio lifts a glass of moonshine and California raises a skinny margarita as we toast to what is arguably the most epic blindside/power move in the history of the game. Like Sandra, we probably underestimated Denise, who started making rookie mistakes on day 1, disappearing into the woods with Adam to talk strategy. We called her a goat. Sandra told Jeff she wasn't a threat. SURPRISE. That's why they're Winners at War, people. TELL US HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT DENISE'S MONEY MOVES!

Break out your container of Mee Maw's Beer Cheese and get ready to celebrate, because the wedding of the year (Lord, help us all) is finally OVAH! Spoiler alert: no one objected, Faith didn't show up with Jax's baby, and no one fainted in the 96-degree heat. So, kind of a smashing success, all things considered. The reception was a thing of beauty, featuring Sandoval getting his NSYNC on with Lance Bass, Schwartz delivering his version of the Gettsyburg address, and Jax throwing a temper tantrum over some missing vodka. Meanwhile, back in LA, the new cast judges each other in true throwback VPR style. Enjoy and please stay safe, friends. XOXO

Our new favorite families are back with another episode, and better yet...they've brought more friends for us to get to know and love. Bali is a new "too hot and cool to be an auntie" addition. She could have easily been a Real Housewife and feels like home. Shaan Patel shows us how the other half lives. In a compound. With creepy statues. Plus will Lopa's mouth drive an irreparable wedge between the families? Tune in as Jordan and Jen gush and throw out their theories.

Reunion Part 2 or "Sex and the Jersey"? So many intimate deals to process! Joe Gorga's sperm count, Danielle's sex tape, Jackie and Evan's oral situation (or lack of). Is Teresa hosting Passover next season? Will Frank and Dolores reunite, or just admit that they already have? We really want Jennifer to STFU all around, but we NEVER, EVER want to hear about her BJs for Bill again.

The 23rd pre-party for Jax and Brittany's wedding is...a Murder Mystery for Stassi!(?) Is this the real end of the Witches of WeHo? Are Stassi and Katie leaving Kristen behind, just like Schwartz left behind the marriage license? It's confusing to see Jax so reflective, but Brittany's castle onesie party was super "on brand." Max probably has the coronavirus now from Dayna dragging his necklace in kitty litter. BONUS: We fixed the sound!

Drop your buffs, people, it's time to talk! Join Jen and Brianna in a play-by-play of episode 5, where Edge of Extinction continues to corral some of the game's most legendary players. After the tribes are mingled and divided into three, it becomes a weird love/hate fest, filled with hero worship and Survivor-lebrity crushes. Suddenly, exes Michelle and Wendell are marooned on the same tribe, prompting some of the most amusing and awkward exchanges we've ever seen on the show. It all culminates in the takedown of The Godfather (cue death-march music). But like White Walkers, those who end up on Edge of Extinction are likely to rise again, more powerful and evil than before. BONUS: We fixed the sound!

Move over, Shahs. Family Karma has stolen our hearts. We go deep into Bravo's newest show about Miami's Indian community. The setting, the cast, the moms and aunties. Are Vishal and Richa meant to marry? Are Brian and Monica oblivious to their love? Is Lopa the new Vida? It all goes down at the Diwali Gala! #FamilyKarma

Drop your buffs and join Brianna and Jen's tribe as they refresh your memory and prep you for the new episode. Throw your heads back in laughter watching Adam get beaten with a humility stick. Enjoy watching said two-faced weasel turn into a glorified manservant. Combine your tears with theirs as they review one of the most touching moments in 40 seasons, as Ethan struggles on EoE. Clutch your pearls and relive the excitement of yet another nail-biting challenge. Pick your side within the tribe on Sit-Out Sandra's contribution. Where else can you find so much info packed into half the time the show takes? What are you waiting for? Click now!!!

The reunion starts with a bang, as Jennifer comes in hot for Melissa. While Jennifer says what we're all thinking about Melissa's fake storylines, Jordan and Brianna agree that she's clearly interested in getting punched in the face...and it could easily happen. It would be kind of a shame to ruin all of Bill's hard work, though, right? Jackie surprises J&B by saying that no, Dolores was not being antisemitic when she said she was "cut from a different cloth" and then they make nicey-nice. Dolores says she's good without a ring from David. No one believes you, Dolores. But we're glad you're moving in the right direction. Tune in next week for part 2!

Can a wedding last an entire year? It definitely feels like Jax and Brittany's has lasted at least that long; maybe longer. Meanwhile, James is serving up a hearty helping of abuse to Raquel, who says she's done with it and that this is his last chance. Anyone's guess if she's just saying that once again (what does she see in him anyway?). Sandoval issues an inauthentic apology to Jax, who inauthentically accepts it. Back to having two "best" men (does Jax know what "best" means?), Jax still explains that one Tom Best Man is not equivalent to the other Tom Best Man, logic that only Jax can manufacture or comprehend.

Drop your buffs, because it's time to join Jen and Brianna as we take a deeper look at Survivor Winners at War, Episode 3. Once again, it's an epic battle of the dumbasses, with Adam sharing his plan to get Parvati out with Rob. What are you THINKING, bro? Meanwhile, Natalie easily foils Danni and Amber, neither of whom seem like they're playing with a full deck. Sandra continues to prove she's got more tricks up her sleeve, catching a baby shark (which Tony picks up by the tail and almost gets bitten). Rob manages to avoid getting a single vote, despite being responsible for another tribe loss. And it all ends in tragedy, but with hope for the future.

We are SHOOKETH as LVP mourns the loss of another family member, the Queen Mother. Sandoval is lucky to be fired as Jax’s groomsman- the Cartwright/Taylor wedding is a nightmare, not a fairy tale. Lala's managing the Bel Air house reno because BJs for PJs aren’t paying the bills, and we’re 99% sure that Charli and Brett are actually siblings. Vanderpump with your Standerpumps, Jordan & Brianna!

WTF was she thinking? WTF was she wearing?? Hair pulls are the new table flips and Tre looked like Shirley Temple meets Atlantic City at the Jersey Shore. In Italy, Teresa and Joe are DEAD inside--almost as dead as their marriage. Does the family that Gucci sweatshirts together stay together?

After years of having his back, Brianna finally relents and admits that Andy Cohen acted like a sexist pig on the Below Deck reunion. Disillusioned, she and Jordan turn their attention back to what is actually important, namely, does Raquel have Stockholm syndrome? Do Jax and Brittany share one brain (or less than one)? Is Kristen really as athletic as she thinks? On Vanderpump Rules, we find out that yes, Gigi really is that big of a stoner and Mike's brothers have lost their fool minds and are entrusting him with a multimillion-dollar construction job. We round out the week with highlights from Real Housewives of New Jersey and Real Housewives of Atlanta.

Drop your buffs and join Brianna and Jen's tribe as they breakdown the second episode of Survivor Winners at War. Does Ben even understand the concept of the game? Is it possible for Denise to make worse choices in alliance partners? Was Tony punking all of us with that ladder, and do he and Sarah really think Cops R Us will work? Have some of the contestants suffered traumatic brain injuries since their wins or are they just that stupid? All this and more, including awarding their fire-token-worthy and torch-snuffing moments of the week! Join them on Tuesdays for a memory refresher and some laughs before each new episode.

The Bravo gods have smiled upon us once again with an embarrassment of riches! On the #BelowDeck reunion, Andy manages to piss off the Bravoverse by appearing overly sympathetic to Ashton, Captain Lee is wearing white alligator boots, and Abbi's had a "glow up." Then, the #Shahs are back in town and J&B are STOOOOOKKKKKKEEEED! We jump right in with a housewarming party, Persian style, but with Kevin Lee "shi shi shi" flair! Mike, once again, has found his soulmate. GG, without taking a breath, jumps right into the histrionics. And (gasp!) Adam is sending dick pics to new buddies he's playing Naked Jenga with. On #PumpRules, we're playing arts and crafts and Scheana IS NOT JEALOUS. Meanwhile, the racist new duo, Max and Brett, are conspicuously missing after the controversy over their tweets.

New! SURVIVOR WINNERS AT WAR breaks down the triumphs, tragedies, schemes, and surprises from Survivor Season 40, the series' piece de resistance! In this inaugural episode, Brianna and Jen analyze the cast, reminisce about their original seasons, and debate the worthiness of some of the series' most notorious heroes and villains. Is Sandra the queen, or merely a cocky wannabe? Did Danni get too much botox? Is Tony a weasel, a cop, or both? Most of all, these cohosts squeal like little girls as they share their over-the-top excitement about this epic, 20-years-in-the-making event. Tune in Tuesdays for new episodes!

So. Many. Lies. In this dramatic episode, J&B lament the emotional roller-coaster and web of deceit woven by Mr. Andy Cohen. Is she or isn't she? Will she or won't she? We cover the rumored and confirmed departures of original housewives NeNe Leakes, Tamra Judge, and Vicki Gunvalson. By listener demand, we also share our professional opinions on the Jim and Megan Edmonds divorce drama. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kikiandkibbitz/message

On #RHONJ, Jennifer and Jackie mirror Jordan and Brianna, as far as our feelings about $$$$ go. We discuss whether it's adorable or deplorable to count other people's money (and ask detailed questions about it). On #PumpRules, Season 1 Stassi makes a cameo and on #BelowDeck, Kate sinks to a brand-new low. Brianna (and her son Dylan) podcast live from Hawaii, where they share the unbelievable stories of Brianna's father, Dr. Jay, and his poor, poor helpers. Aloha!

This season of Vanderpump Rules opened with the news that the only OG cast members who still worked at SUR were Scheana, Jax, and Peter. In episode 2, we get the ol' bait and switch, when Tom Sandoval tells us he went back to SUR because he just missed it and because he likes to end the night with a wad of cash. Next, we have Ariana in a $$$ outfit, talking about she's bored and wants to come back to SUR. J&B&J discuss the pretense here, with some of these cast members making close to $500k/season. Or maybeeeee they just want to make sure they stay relevant? You decide! At least Lala has the decency to constantly flaunt her wealth (wait, did we say Lala has decency?). On Real Housewives of NJ, we debate Jennifer Aydin's motivation for researching Jackie's wealth and whether it makes her a horrible person. Lastly, on Below Deck, we cover Rhylee's firing/not firing and whether Captain Lee really would work with Ashton again. And. So. Much. More.

Our buddy Raven is back to help us do a deep dive into the failing relationships of new moms Kenya and Porsha, as well as the new season of Vanderpump Rules (yay!). We kick it off with Jordan's analysis of why Megan Markle and Prince Harry have decided to "step back from their royal duties." Brianna gives advice on what not to do when choosing a life partner (spoiler alert: don't get married or have a baby with someone you've known for less than three months...we're looking at YOU Kenya and Porsha!). Raven explains how "Lauren from Utah" is literally the opposite of what the #metoo movement stands for, as well as an egregious cultural appropriator. And of course, we dig into the "did they or didn't they" with Dayna and Peter Madrigal on #PumpRules!

Happy freakin' New Year 2020, people! Welcome to Season 2 of Kiki and Kibbitz! We kick the season off with our biggest guest ever--Peter Madrigal, the SUR manager featured on Vanderpump Rules (and the most obvious candidate for the new Most Interesting Man in the World). In this exclusive appearance, Peter spills the tea on the upcoming season of #PumpRules, as well as on his latest projects, which include a new vlog series, a slots game app, and his new film "The Raiven Destiny!" J&B also take a look at the reunions for Real Housewives of Dallas and Married to Medicine. On #RHOD, everyone comes hard for LeeAnn (she deserves it), while she counters with her best compulsive lies. And it turns out that she's not the only racist on the show! On #Married2Med, actual grown-up women talk out their differences and squash their beefs, to the tune of high praise from the peace-loving Andy Cohen.

On this final episode of the decade, we welcome Jen (@HWsWhisperer) back to the show to discuss the season finale of #RHOD and the #RHOC reunion. We discover that the ratio of monsters to acceptable human beings is quite high and decide to use the time to dissect these beasts' ghastly behavior (and there's a LOT of it). We also talk about the sad fate of Joe and Teresa on #RHONJ and Brianna's new "Hanukkah for Dummies" kit. See you back for season 2 (with a tremendously exciting guest!) on January 8, 2020. Happy new year!

Everyone gangs up on Kate this week on #BelowDeck, prompting the revelation that she is not actually a femmebot (and J&B are SHOOK). Meanwhile, Tanner and LeeAnn are still giant flaming a-holes and #RHOD Kam wins "most improved" housewife of the season. Tune in to find out who we think has fallen from grace! BONUS: A cameo from a very special #RHONY housewife!

Bravo hits the road this week with 4 cast trips! On #RHOD, the ladies attend a Thai ping-pong show and Kam takes to the whiteboard to explain angles and projectiles. On #BelowDeck, Tanner is messy AF and the crew visits the same Thai elephant sanctuary as the Dallas ladies. Dolores goes full old-school Italian on Jackie on the #RHONJ cast trip to Jamaica, where Jennifer takes an open-mouth shit bath with da horsies. Not to be outdone, #RHOC continues their turbulent trip to Key West, where everyone takes sides.

Who doesn't remember the Dinner From Hell, featuring the iconic, e-cig smoking Allison Dubois on #RHOBH? Or Teresa's franchise-defining table flip on #RHONJ? What about the Bluestone Manor blowout on #RHONY? This week, we break down our top 3 messiest Housewives dinners! J&B are joined by one of our favorite tweeters, HW Whisperer (Jen), whose snarky sense of humor is the perfect complement to our dynamic duo.

This week on K&K, we discuss the historic rise and infamous falls of two of the most notorious OG Housewives: Nene Leakes and Vicki Gunvalson. Of course, we also had to break down LeeAnne's epic meltdown in Thailand and the reaction in the Twittersphere. As our literal shit show of the week, Brianna shares the events to come in advance of her colonoscopy. You're welcome. #RHOA #RHOC #RHOD

This week, K&K breaks down one of the barfiest episodes in Below Deck history. First, we discuss the Departure of the Ginger, the Descent of the Bosun, and the Night of the Tongue. Then Chris Keyes, the man mistakenly identified as a security guard at OC Fashion Week, comes with the definitive word on Dr. Deb and her relationship to people of color, including her use of the n- word, straight to his face.

K&K welcomes Raven (@mainlybravo) to discuss the crazy new season of Real Housewives of Atlanta. Find out how unfriendly she really is! (Spoiler alert: not very!) Find out whether Sincerely was sincere and why Kenya is the smartest, funniest housewife in the franchise. Let the wild kiki begin!

They say you can't judge someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. Fortunately, J&B don't care. So this week, we spend the episode judging the three most cringeworthy relationships on the Real Housewives: Shane and Emily Simpson, Joe and Teresa Giudice (although we can't pronounce their last name), and Jim and Meghan Edmonds. From abusive behavior to shady deeds, this is the episode where we "mention it all."

The fracas at OC Fashion Week was next level! But have you ever wondered if what you saw on screen was the whole story? Spoiler alert--it's not!

In this episode of Kiki and Kibbitz, Kathy Marino, Executive Producer of OC Fashion week (aka "Kathy with the Mic") comes to set the record straight.

Find out who the man in the expensive purple suit really was! Find out why Dr. Deb was really barging upstairs (hint: it's not what you think!).

Kathy explains it all, as well as why she so angry that night.

"Oh, I LOVE IT"! Steve stops by K&K, becoming our first Bravoleb guest!Listen as he shares some juicy nuggets you won't hear anywhere else (Luann and Erika's backstage feud over "Chicago"), gives us the behind-the-scenes look at LeeAnne's wedding (that dress designer scene, tho!) dishes on his best and worst dressed housewives, and reveals his top-five wedding-planning tips. Outside of Real Housewives of Dallas, Steve has planned events for President Bush, President Obama (Brianna almost faints), Oprah (Jordan almost faints), and many other huge names. Put on your boots and saddle up!

Join the kiki as J&B break down their first one-star review, give a hearty pirate welcome to the new season of Below Deck (including a prediction of who would win in a Chief Stew wrestling match), and talk about Tamra and Eddie humiliating Emily on #RHOC. They end with Fantasy Bravo Crossover and a two-for-one Shitshow of the Week.

Start folding your tissues into tiny squares as you listen to J&B talk about this season's final episodes of Below Deck Med and #RHOP. We also play Real Housewives Fantasy Crossovers and discuss the Shitshow of the Week.

J&B catch up on this season of Real Housewives of Dallas and check in on OC. We also play “Fantasy Housewives Crossovers” and discuss some Bravo news of the week.

Welcome to Kiki & Kibbitz with Jordan and Brianna, the podcast where the bagels always have lox and the jokes are always tasteless! Each week, J&B discuss celeb news and gossip, as well as our fave reality shows--especially those on Bravo!

In this Minisode, we introduce the podcast and Brianna interviews Jordan about his experience as Twitter's famous @RadziwillLee account.
