    #48 Overalls, Secrets & Scorched Earth 🏰 (The Traitors S4E5)

    Thomas Norman is back and we are recapping The Traitors US Season 4 Episode 5: “If You’re Gonna Come for Me, I’ll Finish You.” 🏰 From shirtless overalls (yes, we committed to the Rob cosplay) to one of the most explosive roundtable confrontations of the season, this episode gave us layered strategy, emotional landmines, and a breakfast table that felt like a battlefield. We break down: Dorinda vs. Ron and the coldest breakfast entrance of the season (“literally crickets”) Kristen absolutely CLOCKING Colton’s strategy: “He surveys the group and then reverse engineers the conversation.” The salmon shortage crisis and why hoarding protein might actually be traitor behavior The kitchen fight between Colton and Michael that spiraled fast The controversial “29 years” comment and how intention vs. impact played out at the roundtable Why Lisa’s “it doesn’t matter how you meant it, it matters how he took it” was elite therapy language The larger conversation around Colton’s Bachelor history and why it continues to follow him And whether this was smart gameplay… or emotional self-destruction This episode had secrets, strategy, weaponized wording, and some of the most uncomfortable tension we’ve seen so far this season.

    #47 Murder Face to Face & Maple Tree Lies 🏰 (The Traitors S4E4)

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, Thomas Norman is back in the castle and we are breaking down The Traitors US Season 4, Episode 4: “Cut the Head Off the Snake.” And yes — we are still emotionally recovering from MURDER FACE TO FACE. Before we even get into strategy, we have to talk about: Lindsay dyeing her eyebrows mid-episode (kitchen beautician realness) Alan Cumming’s orange suit, leopard blouse, wicker-man fantasy And why certain cardigans make us want to throw hands Then we dive into the chaos. We pick up right where the episode leaves off — the murder in plain sight twist with faithfuls tied to trees and the traitors forced to eliminate someone face-to-face. When Caroline meets her fate, she gives us an instant classic: “Lisa, you bitch.” And honestly? Emmy. We unpack: Whether killing Caroline was actually the smartest Traitors move If Eric is becoming the king of confirmation bias Why Ron’s “light footsteps” theory was absolutely wild Lisa Rinna’s maple tree storytelling masterclass And how breakfast interrogations might be doing more harm than good for the faithfuls Plus: Who we would’ve murdered instead Why Rob looks better with facial hair (important journalism) And whether this season is finally setting up a Traitors win It’s fashion analysis, psychological gameplay breakdown, Bravo brain, and chaotic support group energy all in one. If you’re watching The Traitors US Season 4 on Peacock, obsessing over the faithful vs traitor strategy, or just here for Alan Cumming’s wardrobe budget — welcome home. 📱 Follow & Join the Support Group: Instagram — @thebravoholicsanonymous TikTok — @bravoholics.anonymous 🎧 Follow, rate & subscribe wherever you listen.

    #46 The Finale Heard ‘Round the Amphitheater ❄️ RHOSLC S6E16 ❄️

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, Lindsay and Chris Byers break down the explosive Season 6 Finale of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City — “Sisters of Salt: A Greek Tragedy.” And honestly? It delivered. We open in Greece with dramatic red towers, empty courtyards, and a playwright ready to expose the true war beneath the elegance. But what unfolds is less Shakespeare… and more slippery strategy. This episode dives deep into: 🏛️ The Greek amphitheater play that exposes the women’s secrets 📱 The late-night 2AM meetup between Meredith and Bronwyn 🧠 Who was “pumping” who for information — and who set who up 🍌 Heather’s now-iconic line: “One foot in the bullsh*t and the other on the banana peel.” 🎭 Whether Bronwyn orchestrated a finale moment to secure her storyline ✈️ The shadow of the infamous plane incident hanging over everything 🍷 Brittany’s unexpected glow-up (yes, we said it) We debate: Is Meredith spiraling… or being baited? Is Bronwyn calculated… or misunderstood? And at what point does off-camera strategy become on-camera manipulation? Plus: • Angie’s Greek family moment • The mandilia scarves (very Virgin Mary-coded) • Why we don’t believe Monica. Ever. • And why this finale may have quietly reshaped the cast hierarchy going into Season 7. It’s a breakdown of lies, loyalty, editing, production games, and the art of disengaging — all under the guise of culture and cappuccinos. If you love Bravo analysis that goes beyond surface drama and actually questions the mechanics of reality TV storytelling, this episode is for you. 📱 Follow & Join the Conversation 🎙 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 🎙 Chris Byers — @chrisbyerzz 📸 Instagram — @thebravoholicsanonymous 📱 TikTok — @bravoholics.anonymous Rate, subscribe, and share with your Bravo bestie.

    #45 When the Breakfast Table Becomes a Battlefield 🏰 The Traitors S4E3

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, Lindsay St. Laurent (@filmakeher) is back with bestie Thomas Norman (@thomas_shmomas) to break down The Traitors US Season 4, Episode 3 — “Show Me Your Faces.” 🏰🕵️‍♀️ From luxury breakfast looks to full-blown strategy warfare, this episode had everything. We kick things off with a full fashion recap — from Candice serving Chanel-inspired mini skirt suits and pillbox hats, to Monet Exchange absolutely owning every red tartan moment, to Maura Moore’s gravity-defying hair that deserved its own roundtable. And of course… we had to talk about Alan Cumming’s canary-yellow Power Ranger villain outfit that divided us immediately. Then the game gets REAL. We break down the Traitors’ genius “murder in plain sight” move, why Rob’s strategy was actually brilliant television, and how it might change the way players approach the game going forward. Was it smart gameplay or way too risky this early in the season? Plus — the breakfast table explodes. Tiffany wastes zero time planting seeds, Michael goes full reality TV instigator, and Jam/Jim turns a simple conversation into a full-volume showdown that had us living for the chaos (and also begging them both to relax). We talk about why this kind of social manipulation is EXACTLY how Traitors should be played. Other highlights include: ✨ Early Traitor and Faithful predictions 🔥 Who’s already rubbing us the wrong way 🎭 Why gamers are becoming major targets 💄 Our Bravo & Hell No moments of the episode 📺 Behind-the-scenes reality TV producer tricks you might not have noticed And yes — we’re officially doing these recaps on YouTube now, complete with skincare masks, robes, and full cozy chaos while we unpack every betrayal. If you love strategy, mess, fashion, and reality TV psychology, this episode is a MUST. 📱 Follow & Join the Chaos 🎙 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 🎭 Thomas Norman — @thomas_shmomas 📸 Instagram — @thebravoholicsanonymous 📱 TikTok — @bravoholics.anonymous

    #44 When the Conga Line Becomes a Crime Scene (The Traitors S4E2)

    From the very first breakfast, we knew this episode was going to be chaotic. Between the stunning castle fashion, Dorinda getting a standing ovation like she’d just won Miss America, and Lisa Rinna’s shellacked 80s helmet hair surviving the Scottish wind, we start by ranking the looks and the vibes that immediately stood out.  But then… the red flags started waving. We get into why Michael Rapaport is already giving villain energy, why Rob’s haircut was an instant strike, and which players are laying low in a way that feels strategic (and smart). From shady roundtable behavior to messy shield drama, we break down who’s playing too loud, who’s playing too quiet, and who might already be digging their own grave.  And of course — we had to unpack the moment that gave the episode its name: 🕺💀 THE DEATH CONGA LINE!!!!! We talk about why starting a conga line during a murder-heavy game is either genius distraction strategy… or the most obvious suspicious behavior imaginable. Who joined, who didn’t, and why it might actually be a clue hiding in plain sight.  Plus: ♟ Early predictions 👀 Who we already don’t trust 🎭 Who’s surprisingly winning us over 😬 Why this season feels harder than ever for the Traitors Between fashion moments, social chaos, and immediate paranoia, Episode 2 proves The Traitors Season 4 is already shaping up to be one of the messiest and most entertaining yet.  📱 Follow & Join the Chaos 🎙 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 🎭 Thomas Norman — @thomas_shmomas📸 Instagram — @thebravoholicsanonymous 📱 TikTok — @bravoholics.anonymous

    #43 Meredith’s Greek Meltdown & Monica’s Internet Spiral ❄️ RHOSLC S6E14

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, Lindsay St. Laurent (@filmakeher) is joined by Bravo bestie Chris Byers (@chrisbyerzz) to break down The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 14 — “My Big Fat Greek Mother’s Day.” 🇬🇷💔 The ladies are still in Greece, emotions are running high, and according to us — all the Mother’s Day tears belong to Meredith Marks. From her feeling “isolated,” “too educated,” and misunderstood in the sprinter van, to spiraling through every group interaction, we unpack Meredith’s Greek meltdown and whether these emotional moments feel real… or self-inflicted. And yes — we highlight the John Barlow podcast interview that had some of the most interesting Househusband tea we’ve heard yet. From John revealing that the husbands don’t get paid for reunions, to explaining how he supports Lisa like a “professional athlete,” we break down why this interview actually explains so much about Lisa’s mindset as a Housewife. We also get into: Monica Garcia officially entering her unhinged internet era and why her post-show behavior feels obsessive and chaotic The return of old stalker-energy vibes since Jen Shah’s release and what that could mean moving forward  Mary unexpectedly stepping in as MVP and pushing Meredith to face the group Our BRAVO and HELL NO moments — including Meredith’s infamous sprinter van speech about being “too educated” for the group Between Greece drama, emotional spirals, online chaos, and peak Housewives delusion, this episode proves Salt Lake City continues to deliver some of the most unhinged reality TV on Bravo. Grab a drink, take a seat at the meeting, and let’s get into it. 📱 Follow & Join the Bravo Chaos 🎙 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 🎤 Chris Byers — @chrisbyerzz 📱 Tik Tok & Instagram — @bravoholics.anonymous

    #42 The Traitors S4E1: First Deals, Bad Vibes & Immediate Suspicion

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, Lindsay St. Laurent (@filmakeher) is joined by her bestie Thomas Norman (@thomas_shmomas) to kick off Season 4 of The Traitors US with Episode 1, “Let the Cards Fall As They Will.” 🗝️♠️ From the moment the cast steps into the castle, the vibes are… off. We get into first impressions, instant alliances, and the subtle (and not-so-subtle) behaviors that already feel suspicious. Who walked in way too confident? Who revealed too much too fast? And who might already be playing a longer, quieter game? In this episode, we’re talking: Immediate trust issues and bad vibes we clocked right away Early cast chemistry and who feels built for deception Players who seem dangerous vs. players who seem doomed Our initial predictions for who could thrive, spiral, or become public enemy number one With Alan Cumming back in full castle-master mode and the cards officially on the table, Episode 1 sets the tone for a season full of paranoia, power plays, and inevitable betrayal — and we’re calling it early, before anyone’s feelings get really hurt. Grab a drink, take a seat at the roundtable, and let’s get into it. 📱 Follow & Join the Conversation 🎙 Host: 👉 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 🎭 Guest: 👉 Thomas Norman — @thomas_shmomas 📱 TikTok: 👉 @bravoholics.anonymous

    #41 Kicking Off The Traitors Season 4 SPOILER FREE! Reading the Room Before the Bloodbath with Thomas Norman!

    This week on Bravoholics Anonymous, host Lindsay St. Laurent (@filmakeher) is joined by returning guest Co-Host Thomas Norman (@thomas_shmomas) to kick off spoiler-free coverage of The Traitors US Season 4 — and we’re doing what we do best: reading the room before the bloodbath. 🗝️🏰 Before a single torch is snuffed, we break down the Season 4 cast, early power dynamics, and the subtle social cues that already feel dangerous. From reality-TV instincts to competition-show psychology, we talk about who seems built for deception, who’s playing too loud too early, and who might quietly dominate once paranoia sets in. Rather than a beat-by-beat recap, this episode focuses on: First impressions that could make or break alliances Cast chemistry and immediate trust issues Our hopes for the season (smart gameplay, restraint, and maximum psychological chaos) Early predictions on who will thrive and who will spiral With Alan Cumming returning as host and the castle once again primed for manipulation, The Traitors Season 4 is shaping up to be a pressure cooker of big personalities, fragile egos, and potential roundtable meltdowns — and we’re calling it now, before anyone gets banished. No spoilers. No episode recap. Just vibes, judgment, and unlicensed group analysis. 📱 Follow & Join the Conversation 🎙 Host: 👉 Lindsay St. Laurent — @filmakeher 🎭 Co-Host: 👉 Thomas Norman — @thomas_shmomas 🎧 Podcast: 👉 @bravoholics.anonymous
