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

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

We apologize; What (else) we're watching tangent; We pledge allegiance to gossip; Our real opinion on Lala vs Katie
First, a genuine apology to Jen Armstrong, formerly of RHOC and to Jen Pedranti, currently on RHOC. We mixed up last names, and when we meant to refer to Jen Pedranti, we accidentally called her Jen Armstrong. No shade was meant. But just because we messed up Jen P's name, doesn't mean we're not going to share the latest on her fiance's involvement in the Ohtani theft/gambling scandal. @bravoandcocktails_ Instagram has been in the news - thanks to a pic we got from a Cocktailer that was then shared and credited to the B&C IG by TMZ - of Dorit and PK at dinner shortly after their separation announcement. We have a hot take on Jenn Fessler's convo with Teresa. B's question for Amanda - if *this one thing* changed about John Fuda, would we all have a different opinion about him? The VPR reunion aired, and we've got different opinions about the Lala vs. Katie convo.
Cocktailers, thank you for listening to Cocktails and Gossip! We might change our minds about shows and Bravolebs on the daily, but you know what we don't change our minds about? Gossip. -
Breaking news; All roads lead to Bravo, VPR Finale
We've got two different sets of breaking news this week. We start out with the story about Ryan Boyajian, fiance to Jen Armstrong of the Real Housewives of Orange County. He has been named as an associate to the bookie in the gambling and theft case of Shohei Ohtani, the LA Dodger, and his interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara, who has been accused of stealing more than $16 million from Ohtani and wiring the money for his gambling to Ryan Boyajian. What did Tamra Judge say about this? You'll hear it here. Jersey is leaving us feeling a little dirty, now that we know about what's been going on behind the scenes (allegedly) with members of the RHONJ cast paying and giving gifts to fan accounts in return for the fan accounts trashing their cast rivals. Vanderpump Rules' season finale felt a little like a series finale. But we know it's not - the ratings are just too good to end the show. Did production give Sandoval a redemption arc? We have differing opinions. What should Lala do next? And, as we're discussing a poll that B put up on @bravoandcocktails_ , we get some breaking news from Dorit and PK.

Another week, another wifi WTF; No one is innocent on The Valley; Greyrocking
What happened to episode 103? And today, we had a whole different WTF... Michelle and Jesse from the Valley have both gone public with new love interests. We've got a lot of info on Jesse's new gf – and she has a fascinating back story that we get into. We disagree about Jax's real motivations for telling Brittany he doesn't want a child, but we agree that everyone's scapegoating on Kristen and she's getting all the blame for something most of the folks on The Valley are doing too. Did you guys catch the weird two refrigerator thing in Kristen's apartment? Ariana is playing chess and Brock is playing checkers - more on what greyrocking is. VPR is pausing production this summer - here's why (according to our sources) and who is spiraling?

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

Customer Reviews
Look forward to it all week
The best takes, the best recaps. I swear you guys are in my mind and say everything I want to put in words about bravo lol. It feels like I’m hanging out with girlfriends when listening. Thanks for keeping us all in the know 💖
A weekly Bravo staple!
So I’ve been listening since the first episode. The tea gets hotter every week, and it’s been such a joy to watch B and Amanda improve every week.
This pod is one of my must-listen-to for Bravo gossip. It’s on my list with Your Bish Therapist, Disrespectfully, Giggly Squad and Blonde Hair, Black Heart and The Viall Files.
I’m a Cocktailer, and even with the subscription, it’s still worth listening to the pod because B will randomly drop stuff that we won’t see on the website or IG for a few days. I agree that B talks over Amanda, but I know she isn’t trying to be rude, she’s just being a New Yorker, and I find it endearing. Lol
Bias is becoming apparent
I used to really enjoy listening to this pod but the more “sources” you get insider information from seems to be so one sided and bias. Instead of saying your source is claiming blah blah, u have increasing been trying to push that persons narrative as factual. It’s clear that marg or Melissa is your source and selling their schtick to you and u broadcast this info as fact. It’s actually really fake for you to act as if u aren’t biased when u clearly are. To say that marg is more interesting on screen to Jen Aydin just proves how unbiased u are. Marg has nothing going on in her life. She doesn’t share anything except cuckolding her husband. Just bcuz marg is your source makes it’s even more obvious that you’re doing exactly what you’ve accused Jenn of doing in regards to using pods and bloggers to push a narrative. It’s hypocritical and disingenuous.
