Brandi & Julie "Adopt" a Baby and Real Housewives’ Ultimate Girls Trip
Brandi Howard, Julie Goldman and I kick things off by cradling their new reborn baby doll named Sterling. Then I get into the wildest story I've heard in a while: a lesbian bar that required N95 masks every single night finally tried loosening up for just one Saturday, and the internet nearly burned it down over accusations of ableism and "white they/them tears." After that we dig into the Real Housewives of New York Halloween special, breaking down Luann's 33-minute cabaret speech, Dorinda's repeat Lady Gaga costume, and Portia showing up two hours late in the snow, plus I've got thoughts on Real Housewives of Orange County's frozen fish era and the Bronwyn dating scandal nobody saw coming.

Fake Boyfriends & Production Secrets: Former Housewives Producer Patrick McDonald Spills All!
Former Real Housewives producer Patrick McDonald is back, and we are going deep into the wildest behind-the-scenes secrets of reality TV. First, we break down the alarming, now-deleted airport video posted by Milania Giudice showing her in a tense confrontation with Teresa, Gia, and local police, unpacking what really went down and the story behind it. We also get into advice for producers on what to do with Taylor Frankie Paul on Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Then, Patrick faces my toughest questions about how production actually operates: do Real Housewives franchises in Potomac, Atlanta, and Salt Lake City really hire and pay fake boyfriends? We discuss why RHOSLC has become top-tier television, how producers assist housewives with restaurant storylines, what happens when a cast member gets demoted from diamond holder to "friend of," and how cast trips are secretly orchestrated. Plus, we spill the truth on the "Bethenny Clause" and my personal strategy for featuring a business on camera so Bravo can never edit your product out! -Right now, Nutrafol is offering our listeners $10 off your first month’s subscription and free shipping when you visit https://Nutrafol.com and enter promo code JUICYSCOOP -Head to https://fromrebel.com to shop daily deals on top baby, home, and kitchen brands — save up to 70% off retail. -Find the fall pieces you’ll reach for most at Quince.

Child Stars on Trial: The KJ Biermann Case & Portia's Mic'd Up Childhood
Georgio and I dive into the latest Real Housewives of New York reboot and question whether Jessel was always this bitchy, or if the new dynamic is pushing her over the edge. We break down the latest updates and timeline in the KJ Biermann case now that he has been released from detention into Kim's care, analyzing whether his growing up in front of reality TV cameras will play a role in his prosecution or defense. Then, we discuss Kyle Richards' emotional revelation on Ultimate Girls Trip about Portia reflecting on her childhood with a microphone on, wonder if Luann will ever finally ditch that fedora, and dish on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, asking if Lisa Barlow is really leaking stories or if Channing Tatum's alleged burner account is to blame. Finally, we break down Taylor Frankie Paul's latest internet exit drama, as well as the shocking possibility that the biggest star of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives might walk away from the franchise before she even officially exits. -For a limited time, save 20% on your first subscription order of AG1 Next Gen or AG1 Pro at DRINKAG1.com/JUICYSCOOP -Find the fall pieces you’ll reach for most at Quince.

The hilarious Chris Franjola joins me today, and we are diving into everything from Bhad Bhabie who happens to live right behind him alongside some bears and coyotes, to the major update on Lindsay Clancy after her husband, Patrick, granted an exclusive interview to 60 Minutes.

Plus, with the Broadway revival of Annie on the horizon, I’m officially throwing my hat back in the ring as a former Annie, and we dissect all the red carpet drama from the Emmys, specifically Shailene Woodley’s outfit and the stylist responsible for that documentary-worthy look. Between taking a trip down memory lane with Charlie's Angels, breaking down the viral, ultra-controversial pooping incident during a HYROX workout competition, pitching my new Pretty Woman script reboot centered on a male gigolo, and unpacking Oprah’s heading to the Sphere, Tom Cruise posing like a Real Housewife, how Meghan Markle could easily fix her image in England if she just listened to me, and a hilarious Dancing with the Stars memory from our Chelsea Lately days, this episode is packed! -For a limited time our listeners are getting a FREE full sized Mascara on their first purchase when they use code JUICYSCOOP at checkout.

The Lindsay Clancy Timeline Inconsistencies, Alex Earle's Stepmom, and Wimbledon's Influencer Problem
I am getting into everything you need to know about Burning Man, how it’s completely evolved over the decades, and whether I’d ever step foot on the playa. Plus, have influencers officially ruined Wimbledon? I also spill on the upcoming Elizabeth Holmes documentary we’ve all been waiting for, RHOC’s Vicki Gunvalson’s decision to hide her love life, and why a bad costume wig almost ruined her Ultimate Girls Trip, and all the raw drama from Alix Earle’s new reality show, Earle Meets World. From her crying over her ex and her stepmom’s controversial past to what really went down with Alex Cooper, I am laying it all out. Then, I sit down with expert, Matthew Addison, to break down the shocking Lindsay Clancy timeline, the glaring inconsistencies, and the wild Reddit posts allegedly made by Patrick Clancy before and after that tragic night. -Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/9l268n36 #CashAppPod — Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.
