Check Me Boomer is a weekly father-daughter podcast about reality TV. Dad's obsessed with Bravo. Maybe even more so than Isabella. Every week, the show covers the Real Housewives franchises (Beverly Hills, New York, Atlanta, New Jersey, Potomac, Salt Lake City, and Rhode Island), along with Summer House, In the City, Next Gen NYC, Southern Charm, Ladies of London, Southern Hospitality, The Valley, Love Island, and whatever else pulls them in. Sometimes they agree. Sometimes they don't. Either way, listeners get two people who actually love reality TV, working through it together. What they watched, what they side-eyed, and what they can't stop thinking about. Dad watches almost everything. Isabella watches everything too, plus catches every clip, group chat, and podcast take the internet has to offer. So the conversation runs from what happened on screen to what the fans are saying about it. Honest takes on the drama, the cast dynamics, and the moments worth rewinding. New episodes drop every week.
