The White Lotus Recap: Season 3 Episode 3 (The Meaning of Dreams)

Week 3 of our stay here at The White Lotus and we're starting to feel that slow burn... This week, Emma Diamond and Julie Kramer of the Comments by Celebs podcast (@commentsbycelebs) join Sami Sage in the studio to dive into the trouble brewing in paradise. Will Greg/Gary's boat be the same yacht from season 2? What's up with Lochlan and the tsunami videos? And what the hell was Rick thinking with the snakes?! (Justice for "filler episodes.") Make sure to subscribe to Sami's Substack for more White Lotus musings, and leave your own thoughts and theories in the comments! https://samisagesays.substack.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Fyre Fest 2, Monica Lewinsky’s Comeback, & Hilaria Baldwin Commits To The Bit

This week, Aleen and Sami begin with a tribute to Michelle Trachtenberg, in light of her tragic passing on Wednesday. Then, they unpack the news that infamous conman Billy McFarland is back with plans for Fyre Festival 2, featuring a lot of vague ideas and exactly zero confirmed artists. Will Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino make an appearance? Who exactly is shelling out $1.1mil for VIP tickets to the "experience of Fyre" (whatever that means)? In podcast news, Alix Earle's podcast has been dropped by Alex Cooper's Unwell Network, amidst rumors and Deux Moi posts hinting at tension between the Al(i/e)xes. Speaking of Alex Cooper, Monica Lewinsky promoted her new podcast with a guest appearance on Call Her Daddy this week, stirring Aleen and Sami's formative elementary school memories of the scandal and impeachment trial. Next up, they dive into the series premiere of The Baldwins - from Hilaria doubling down on the Spanish accent, to Alec's Rust trial, to their seven (seven!) kids, to the ultimate question of: ¿por qué? Pivoting from trashy reality to prestige scripted, they share their latest White Lotus takes. Our Betch of the Week is Rihanna, for the exciting news about her long-awaited 9th album, and we're sending Billy McFarland off to the Caymans because we know how much he loves an island.

SNL 50, Blake Lively's Amended Complaint, & Meghan Markle's As Ever

This week, Sami catches Jordana up on her recent ski trip (she's come a long way from that first attempt). Then, they share their thoughts on SNL's recent 50th Anniversary concert and special - most notably Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively's appearance. Was it a strategic ploy to appear strong in the face of their legal battle with Justin Baldoni? And did Ryan give Blake a heads up before doing that joke? Next, Sami and Jordana break down everything wrong with Meghan Markle's renamed lifestyle brand As Ever, and her public image at large. Speaking of public image, Maya Hawke revealed this week that a large Instagram following is becoming a requirement to getting cast in films. What happened to good old fashioned talent? Finally, they wrap with some White Lotus reactions - make sure to check out Sami's recap episodes and Substack every Monday for a deeper dive. Our Betch of the Week is Cher for her incredible performance at the SNL 50 concert, and Ryan Reynolds can sit next to Jordana on her upcoming flight to the Caymans so he can explain the thought process behind his behavior.

Beyonce's Grammys Success, Analyzing Blake Lively, & The Fall Of Emilia Pérez

This week, Aleen, Jordana, and Sami share their highlights from the Grammys and dissect Taylor's outfit for hidden meanings. Then, after having read the full Justin Baldoni lawsuit, they try to analyze the strategic mind of Blake Lively, and how things got so messy. What are the chances Blake joins Taylor at the Super Bowl on Sunday? In Oscars news, Emilia Pérez might not be as much of a frontrunner as originally projected, now that Karla Sofia Gascon's problematic tweets have come to light. Aleen thinks Zoe Saldaña might still have a fighting chance. On the awards circuit for A Real Pain, Jesse Eisenberg has been trying to distance himself from the association with Mark Zuckerberg... don't worry, Jesse, you're much more human to us. Our Betch of the Week, presented by Peacock's Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy, is obviously Beyonce for her long-awaited Grammy wins, tour announcement, and our favorite meme so far this year. As for the Caymans, we're sending Kim Kardashian's ex husband (who shall not be named) for his red carpet stunt, and Karla for those tweets and her lack of apology. Learn more about your ad choices.

I love this show. I never really followed pop culture until I found this show and I feel like sami, aleen and jordana keep me in the loop! and I love Sami’s white lotus recaps! just one note though- Tinx was a tough guest because she had clearly been watching all sorts of white lotus tik toks and it sort of spoiled the fun of the show! i’m more curious to hear sami’s theories and breakdown then the theories circulating on tik tok. first episode was great though!
More book club!
