Cocktails and Gossip B & Amanda

We've got two different sets of breaking news this week. We start out with the story about Ryan Boyajian, fiance to Jen Armstrong of the Real Housewives of Orange County. He has been named as an associate to the bookie in the gambling and theft case of Shohei Ohtani, the LA Dodger, and his interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara, who has been accused of stealing more than $16 million from Ohtani and wiring the money for his gambling to Ryan Boyajian. What did Tamra Judge say about this? You'll hear it here. Jersey is leaving us feeling a little dirty, now that we know about what's been going on behind the scenes (allegedly) with members of the RHONJ cast paying and giving gifts to fan accounts in return for the fan accounts trashing their cast rivals. Vanderpump Rules' season finale felt a little like a series finale. But we know it's not - the ratings are just too good to end the show. Did production give Sandoval a redemption arc? We have differing opinions. What should Lala do next? And, as we're discussing a poll that B put up on @bravoandcocktails_ , we get some breaking news from Dorit and PK.

What happened to episode 103? And today, we had a whole different WTF... Michelle and Jesse from the Valley have both gone public with new love interests. We've got a lot of info on Jesse's new gf – and she has a fascinating back story that we get into. We disagree about Jax's real motivations for telling Brittany he doesn't want a child, but we agree that everyone's scapegoating on Kristen and she's getting all the blame for something most of the folks on The Valley are doing too. Did you guys catch the weird two refrigerator thing in Kristen's apartment? Ariana is playing chess and Brock is playing checkers - more on what greyrocking is. VPR is pausing production this summer - here's why (according to our sources) and who is spiraling?

Monday was one of the wildest days in the Bravoverse that we can remember. Firings, divorce news, pregnancy announcements. Is Nneka actually not coming back to Potomac? B has an Atlanta casting update. The Valley is sending us. We love it. Kristen is an empath? Lol. We have the tea on who the rumored director that Michelle Lally was hanging out with. We have a lot more info on Raquel Chevremont, the new RHONY Reboot cast member. And of course, Cocktailers knew there was trouble in paradise for Alexia and Todd's marriage. Is it really all that shocking that he filed for divorce? Or could that have been a strategic move? James and Ally have an emotional chat - we've got a unique viewpoint about that chat. And would anyone, even Schwartz buy a house with Tom Sandoval? B's got a prediction about Scheana and Brock's marriage...

Larry from @Bravobygays on Instagram and the Bravo by Gays podcast is here! We get INTO it about Vanderpump Rules - starting with Jo. We read the transcript of her interview on Rachel's Gone Rogue - is she a victim of Tom Shwartz's gaslighting? Were they actually dating last summer? Larry's thoughts on the Katie/Tori/Schwartz love triangle. What is actually going on with this Lala/Ariana feud? We have theories. What show does Larry think is Must-See-TV? Thoughts on Jax and Brittany - are they broken up for good? Summer House: We discuss Danielle and Paige; Why we think Paige is setting a great example for people (not just women) in relationships everywhere; Our real opinions on the Summer House newbies; What's going on with Kyle and Amanda?
 

We're getting tips and seeing video that Jax already has one foot out of his marriage. A complete 180 from where he was a year ago? On the Valley, Kristen drops a bomb about another castmate, but then seems shocked at the backlash. We have some thoughts and observations about VPR that we're not seeing anywhere else. What is B's beef with Tom Schwartz about? And, in honor of our 100th episode, we answer Cocktailer questions. We answer Cocktailer questions, such as: What's the craziest DM you have gotten? How did the account start? What is our favorite part of doing the podcast? THANK YOU Cocktailers for coming on this podcast journey with us! We wouldn't be here without you. Cheers to you!

Another wild week in March. How much more can we take? Monday's news about P Diddy's homes being raided by Homeland Security and his sons being cuffed, while he was allegedly flying around the islands on a private jet. Real Housewives of Potomac has us talking - the finale was definitely worth watching. There's a physical fight at the GNA party. And Mia and Gordon are getting divorced: Mia's been having an affair, and she and Gordon aren't sure whether their son is Gordon's or Mia's on-and-off affair partner. So this is going to be *quite* the reunion. We have an interesting theory on what might actually be behind Simon Guobadia's recent call to the police. Miami filming is delayed - we've got some thoughts on why. Why are we finding out so much more about Kyle and Mauricio's separation on Buying Beverly Hills? Last but not least, congrats to Ariana from VPR on the purchase of her new house. A quick update on where things stand with her house battle with Tom.
