This explosive season of Vanderpump Rules has ended with a bang. Lala slams Ariana, Tom attempts to make peace with Ariana by speaking directly to her and new BF Daniel, Scheana struggles with forgiving Tom while still remaining loyal to Ariana, Jo is bullied and everything comes to a head in the much expected Tom Sandoval redemption season. As Schwartzy said, "plot twist", or is it? The VPR after shows were even messier with Lala doubling down, Kristen and Brittney weighing in and the name of Beyonce being taken in vain. Finally, we address the rumors that Kyle and Dorit do not want to film with each other next RHOBH season, the effect - if any - that will have on their ability to hold a diamond and the party Sutton is having this weekend because filming has…begun! @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

The RHONJ Taglines have arrived just in time for tomorrow night’s premiere of RHONJ. We break down the taglines one by one, rank them from worst to best, deep dive the meaning behind each and discuss what we can expect this season on RHONJ.  Next we pause and take a moment of silence for the passing of one of our very own, The Namaste B$tches Podcast. We discuss what led to the end of that Podcast versus the fake narrative that is being put out there, the BravoCon of it all, the DM’s being sent around and other Housewives Podcasts that have failed. Vicki Gunvalson we see you. Heading west, we discuss Vanderpump Rules’ pause - the reasons behind it, how it will affect the show and when we can realistically expect this top rated Bravo show to return to our screens.  Finally, we deep dive Rachel Leviss’ rumored new situationship / boyfriend Investment CEO Matthew Dunn. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Listen Now: https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Learn more about your ad choices.
