    #40 CRAIG! CRAIG! CRAIG! 🎄 The Charleston Bravoholic Christmas Special PART 2

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, Lindsay is joined by the Charleston Bravoholic for a two-part Christmas special covering Southern Charm Season 11, Episode 4 — and a full check-in on everything that’s happened so far this season. 🎄🍑 Before diving into Episode 4, we zoom out and assess the state of Southern Charm: how the season is shaping up, which dynamics feel authentic, what’s clearly intentional from production, and why Craig Conover continues to dominate the conversation — on screen and off. From there, we break down Episode 4 and the ripple effects it creates, including: Craig’s emotional state and how his friendships with Shep and Austen are evolving The tension around who shows up for whom, especially when it comes to travel, effort, and loyalty Why Craig appears deeply affected by Austen’s absence and what it reveals about their relationship How production choices, scheduling, and seasonal filming impact what we see on screen Why Charleston “just works better” in the summer — visually and narratively We also unpack broader cast behavior and long-running patterns: Shep’s ability to win viewers back despite repeated bad behavior Austen’s history of making women come to him — and why it keeps coming up The power dynamics between the men, the women, and the city of Charleston itself Why Craig continues to be positioned as both the emotional center and the lightning rod of the group With insider perspective from the Charleston Bravoholic, we talk about what lands locally versus what reads as performative, how cast members are perceived off camera, and why Craig discourse never seems to cool off — even during the holidays. It’s festive, it’s opinionated, and yes… it all comes back to Craig. ✨ In This Two-Part Christmas Special: 🎄 Southern Charm Season 11 (Episodes 1–4) check-in 🍑 Episode 4 deep dive 🧵 Craig, Shep, and Austen relationship dynamics 🎥 Production insights & filming timelines 🏡 Charleston culture and social context 💎 BRAVO moments 💀 HELL NO moments 🎁 Holiday overthinking, as a gift 📱 Follow Us & Join the Bravo Conversation Host: 👉 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher Special Guest: 👉 Charleston Bravoholic — @shannypants2 🎧 Subscribe, rate, and review Bravoholics Anonymous — it helps more than pretending this episode wasn’t always going to be about Craig.

    #38 Gods, Glam & Gaslighting ❄️ RHOSLC S6E13

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, Chris Byers is back with Lindsay as they break down The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 13 — “Greek for the Week.” ❄️🇬🇷 The women arrive in Santorini, but instead of peace, paradise delivers old grudges, selective memories, and fresh disrespect. A dreamy Greek getaway quickly turns tense as unresolved drama from Canouan follows the group overseas. Meredith and Heather’s relationship reaches a breaking point, Bronwyn attempts to walk back her marital issues, and Angie feels slighted when Lisa skips a Santorini sunset in favor of glam — because nothing says unity like choosing contour over community. Chris and Lindsay unpack: 🌊 Why distance only amplifies this group’s dysfunction 💄 Glam choices as power moves 👀 Meredith’s expert-level disengaging 💔 Bronwyn’s shifting narrative and what it signals ⚖️ Loyalty tests, gaslighting, and group dynamics abroad As always, we crown our BRAVO 💎 moments, call out the HELL NO 💀 moments, and track the behavior that turns a luxury vacation into a full-blown Greek tragedy. Because when Housewives travel internationally… the drama always clears customs. 📱 Follow Us & Join the Bravo Conversation Hosts: 👉 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 👉 Chris Byers — @chrisbyerzz 🎧 Subscribe, rate, and review Bravoholics Anonymous — it helps more than a sunset you didn’t bother to attend.

    #37 Spill the Tea & Sign the Constitution ❄️ RHOSLC S6E12

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, Chris Byers is back with Lindsay to break down The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 12 — “First Amendment Rights, and Wrongs.” ❄️ It’s tea time in Salt Lake City, and the kettle is SCALDING. In an attempt to bring the group back together, Bronwyn celebrates her new U.S. citizenship by hosting a Spill the Tea party inspired by the Constitution — but instead of unity, it delivers fresh accusations, resurfaced grudges, and total group chaos. Meredith finds herself squarely in the hot seat as the women confront her with new claims, while Lisa remains unconvinced, unmoved, and very much divided. Meanwhile, Bronwyn and Todd’s marriage continues to raise eyebrows, and the cracks are becoming harder to ignore. We also dig deep into: 🔥 The Canouan fallout that refuses to die 📜 What “free speech” actually looks like in this group 💄 Whitney’s business, MLM rumors, and Justin’s involvement 🙏 Mary preparing to reopen her church — and stepping into a grounding role for her son 🎭 Costume chaos, symbolism overload, and why this party was doomed from the start ✨ In this episode, we cover: ☕ Bronwyn’s Spill the Tea citizenship party 📣 Meredith vs. the group — accusations fly ⚖️ First Amendment energy gone VERY wrong 💔 Bronwyn & Todd’s ongoing marital tension 💄 Whitney, Justin, and the MLM deep dive 🙏 Mary reopening her church 🎁 Angie’s surprise that flips the room 💎 BRAVO Moments 💀 HELL NO Moments 😈 Demonic Behavior Watch 🧠 Power dynamics, production questions & accountability 📱 Follow Us & Join the Bravo Conversation Hosts: 👉 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 👉 Chris Byers — @chrisbyerzz 🎧 Subscribe, rate, and review Bravoholics Anonymous — because free speech means nothing without group text consequences.

    #36 Ladies Who Lunch (and Lie) ❄️ RHOSLC S6E10

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, Lindsay St. Laurent (@filmakeher) is joined by Chris Byers (@chrisbyerzz) to break down The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 10 — “Ladies Who Lunch: The Sequel.” ❄️ What happens when you put the entire cast at one table, remove distractions, and force them to talk? A masterclass in Housewives psychology. This episode delivers pure, dialogue-driven drama as the women reunite for the first time since the Canouan trip — and everything comes to a head over breakfast. Meredith sits stone-faced while accusations fly, Whitney presses hard, Heather stirs relentlessly, and Mary steps fully into her role as mediator. We unpack: Meredith’s remarkable composure under pressure Why the Canouan plane incident still isn’t settled Lisa Barlow quietly playing the middle (and doing it well) Heather’s pot-stirring strategy at the table Whitney’s provocations — and her infamous “one of three problems” theory Mary’s surprising authority and emotional intelligence as peacemaker There’s Dom Pérignon lore, beta blocker speculation, Global Entry gatekeeping, Crazy Rich Asians cross-examination, and enough subtext to fuel the rest of the season. This isn’t screaming, flipping tables, or storming off — it’s chess, not checkers. ✨ In This Episode We Cover: 🍽️ The Ladies Who Lunch showdown 🧠 Meredith’s calm vs. the group’s pressure 🔥 Heather’s HELL NO interruptions 💎 Lisa’s loyalty plays 🙏 Mary’s evolution into the group’s moral center 😬 Whitney’s escalation tactics 🎭 The power of silence at a Housewives table 📱 Follow Us & Join the Bravo Conversation Hosts: 👉 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 👉 Chris Byers — @chrisbyerzz 🎧 Subscribe, rate, and review Bravoholics Anonymous — because some women fold napkins… and some fold egos.

    #35 God Is Watching & So Is Production ❄️ RHOSLC S6E10

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, host Lindsay St. Laurent (@filmakeher) is joined once again by Bravo bestie Chris Byers (@chrisbyerzz) to break down The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 10 — “The Higher the Hair, the Closer to God.” ❄️ Andy Cohen himself called this his favorite episode of the season, and honestly? We get why. The fallout from the Canouan plane ride explodes, secrets spill at a High Body Count surprise party, and multiple marriages crack under pressure. This episode has housewife drama AND real-life consequences — the most dangerous combo. Whitney throws Britani a surprise High Body Count party (yes, that is what it’s called), complete with Build-A-Bear voice recordings, confessions of infidelity, and emotional ambushes. What starts as a “healing moment” quickly turns into a reckoning. Meanwhile: 🔥 Meredith and Lisa remain completely divided 💔 Bronwyn faces devastating marital revelations involving Todd 🙏 Mary prepares to reopen her church while trying to support her son ✈️ The group finally confronts what REALLY happened on the plane 📄 And a shocking NDA rumor suggests production may still be holding footage… We also dig deep into: Alleged cheating evidence seen on the plane Why Bronwyn might be entertaining an open arrangement The power dynamics between house husbands and Housewives Whether accountability is even possible in this group anymore And for the first time in Bravoholics Anonymous history… 😈 THREE DIFFERENT CAST MEMBERS TRIGGER OUR “DEMONIC BEHAVIOR” SEGMENT. It has officially never been this toxic. ✨ In this episode, we cover: 🧸 Whitney’s High Body Count surprise party for Britani 😮 Build-A-Bear confessions & emotional manipulation ✈️ The Canouan plane fallout & alleged NDAs 💔 Bronwyn and Todd’s explosive marriage issues 🔥 Meredith vs. Lisa: the war continues 🙏 Mary reopening her church & protecting her family 😈 RECORD-BREAKING Demonic Behavior 📱 Follow Us & Join the REALity Conversation Hosts: 👉 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 👉 Chris Byers — @chrisbyerzz
