Housewives Recap!!! Hard Time & Hairlines
03/26/2022

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse and there is no Big Brother and no Challenge so there are no podcast gods or masters! Only bullshit and Bravo. Tune in for 40 mins of us justifying watching hours of reality tv every week. And more, in the Doghouse.



Housewives Roundup!!! Ding Dong, Jen is Wrong!
03/14/2022

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing all the Bravo ish since we are in that weird period of time when there is no Big Brother or Challenge on tv.  Over in Jerz, fan of the franchise, Jennifer Aydin, continues to get what she deserves and we reluctantly side with Melisa.  We're bored af with SLC so Cayleigh breaks down the difference between the public's response to Jen Shah and Eryka Jane. Also Meredith's outfit is giving us secondhand embarrassment. Oh and we also discuss the weekly Hofstra enrollment ad that is the OC all that and mo...


Housewives Etc!!! Featuring SNAX
03/05/2022

Cara and Cayleigh are together in the doghouse, with a guest appearance by Snax! Big Brother is done, but we still talk about it for a minute, unlike Todrick - and Teddi. In the Bravoverse, everything about the Dubrows disgusts, and Meredith Marks' reunion look may (definitely) be worse than Julie Chen's finale DIY crochet look. Also catch up with Jersey and OC. All that and more, in the doghouse!


Celebrity Big Brother 3!!! Celebrities, Cauliflower, and Circle Jerks
02/24/2022

Cara and Cayleigh are back in The Doghouse and while there may have been nothing to celebrate on tonight's broadcast, we are celebrating the start of the Chenvez free season. Soon the spring will be here and with it hopes that CBS will breathe some life into this damn show by giving us what we really want--a likeable host. Meisha won, Todrick was the worst but Teddi was somehow more insufferable than everyone. Oh and Chris Kattan was there too. We just gained a whole bunch of hours back in our week so we will be back on that...


Celebrity Big Brother 3!!! Carson Gets Clipped
02/20/2022

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse, reluctantly catching y'all up on all this Big Brother ish since Shanna left the house.  Basically everything is stupid so Miesha won the Veto, keeping the noms the same resulting in Carson got BB'd right in the a.  We are still team Lamar which means he is probably out next, but maybe he can pull some ish out with some help from the aliens or with a spell from Shanna. All that and basically just that, seriously this was a short one, in the Doghouse.



Celebrity Big Brother 3!!! Everything Is Stupid And I Hate This Show (Besides Lammy)
02/16/2022

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse catching you up on the hot mess that is CBB.  We'll miss you Shanna, a true compQueen. Todrick has revealed himself to be the true super villain of the season, but is that worse than Miesha being a boring ass bully? Or Cynthia and Carson being dumb af? As much as we feel that Todd could really use this win in life, we are team Lamar because he's the only one who isn't garbage. Plus more pop culture references from when we were 12 or 18 who knows, time is not linear. All t...


Celebrity Big Brother 3!!! Housewives Make Horrible Houseguests
02/14/2022

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse catching y'all up on the last three episodes.  Miesha wins HOH again, Chris-Kattan self evicts the Chris Kirk self-backdoors. From too many Chris K's to no many Chris K's.  Carson the current HOH seems to have fallen for the Miesha and Toddrick's bullshit and Cynthia definitely has. Todd and Miesha are currently on the block but a Shanna backdoor is a real possibility if homegirl can't summon some BB magic. Let's manifest another POV for Shanna.  Plus bonus Fancy Pants sucks talk.  All that and more in the Doghouse.



Celebrity Big Brother 3!!! Bye Bye Bye Marai (feat. J. Lo and The Worst Wilson)
02/09/2022

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse catching y'all up on NSYNC's big moves this week.  Chris Kirk may have been the little bitch in his boyband but he is not taking Miesha's shit this HOH (did she mention she wants Carson gone?) Chris K. nom'd the other Chris K. (there can only be one) and his nemesis Marai. Shanna was clutch and won the POV keeping the noms intact.
 Despite Kattan's begging to be freed from the dark hell that is the BB House, everyone voted out Marai, giving Chenvez the opportunity to make another exit interview all...


Celebrity Big Brother 3!!! Teddi Shits The Bed - And Lamar Too!
02/06/2022

Cara and Cayleigh are back on their bullshit in time for CBB3 and we're catching ya up on the last three days. For starters, yes, Julie Chen looked stupid af. Did moLESter Moonvez put a zipper in that monochrome afghan blanket? As for the cast, we were concerned about the snoozefest but their ignorance of the game and overall messy gameplay has made it feel like anything can happen. The BB magic is back and we're talking 'bout it in the doghouse.
 


The Challenge 37 Spies Lies Allies!!! Is That a GOAT?
12/18/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in this bitch wrapping up Spies, Lies and Allies, finally! This season has been going on forever and we are reclaiming that hour and a half back. CT and Kaycee edged out Tori and Kyle by ten seconds and it was still anti-climatic. Devin mostly embarrassed himself and held back Emy but I guess we should be proud of him for remembering 20 numbers. Congrats, loser.  CT and Kaycee got to decide how to split up the milly, so they kept 400,000 each and graciously gave everyone else 50,000. Hopefully next season will have better editing. Over i...


The Challenge 37 Spies Lies Allies!!! The Battle of Hot Jesus vs Sexy Dracula
12/05/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse talking about the Challenges and all that shit.  Tonight, Uncle CT (aka Chris if you are Devin), dazzled us with his footwork and Logan sabotaged himself by choosing to face-off with Emanuel in the lair.  In the battle of Hot Jesus vs Sexy Dracula, Mother Romania pulled another W. The real winner was Cayleigh's spank bank though.  Over in All-Stars, Dereck K pays for his pettiness and Cara hates Brad's beard.  In the Bravoverse, OC (and Fancy Pants) is back to Cara's delight and everyone on VPR is still the worst
all th...


The Challenge 37 Spies Lies Allies!!! "Thank You Mr. TJ For The Beautiful Words" - JFK, probably
11/27/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back the Doghouse talking about The Challenges and all of that. On Spies, Lies and Allies, Devin the Douche continues to get too much camera time and Emy makes Romania, Dracula and her Uncle proud. On Allstars, Ayana shows herself to be petty and annoying and Derek K looks like an Arizona Iced Tea can.
 Plus Bravo and bonus music documentary commentary up in the Doghouse!


The Challenge 37 Spies Lies Allies!!! We See Through This Top Gun And Anti-Italian Propaganda
11/12/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse talking all things Challenge and all things wrong with it. First off, we are over these stupid movie tie-ins, no we don't want to see a Top Gun remake (Logan looks great in aviators though)  but we loved the actual daily comp. Finally Sapphire gets a win, but they still lose a team member. Why won't they tell us why Ashley was deactivated? Since TJ won't tell us, listen to us speculate wildly.  Over in All Stars, Teck gets naked again and TJ yells at a bunch of old people for be...


The Challenge 37 Spies Lies Allies!!! Cory's Season Capsizes
11/06/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse talking about The Challenge. Amanda continues to be the worst in a cast full of shit sandwiches, who is and who isn't a fishboy, and Cory's whack ass strategy. Of course hot white Jesus beat him. In the Bravoverse, Raquel encourages James to get help to quit being an asshole, but never gets to the real root of his problem - preworkout. Lala comes for Scheana, Scheana ignores red flags and Jesse Metcalfe makes an all-star appearance. Plus all the actual interesting Bev Hill shit since these four parters are for...


The Challenge Spies Lies Allies!!! Nelson Is Coming For Your Alien Ass Of The Night
10/30/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse (not literally this time) and they're still trying to figure out how emerald is succeeding despite being stacked with boring losers, like Kaycee. After their lame ass win, shit goes down in the club, inspiring Alien Ass Emy to volunteer to go into the Lair once again, this time against Bettina, who she destroys. We'll miss that wild ass laugh, Bettina - that's about it.
 In the Bravoverse, Erika's still a monster, Altimers isn't a word and Jenny's husband deeply misunderstands Catholicism. The SLC are the worst. Plus Vandypumps and word on...


The Challenge Spies Lies Allies!!! No One Grips A Pole Better Than Kyle
10/24/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the actual Doghouse, and the dogs aren't thrilled about it. On The Challenge, Kyle fucks it up for Team Ruby, then fucks up Ed in the pole wrestle. On VPR, James Kennedy calls Max a seeyounexttuesday and Sandy continues to act like one. Bonus Halloween Kills content! We sat through Kyle's spooky bangs and spookier hands so you don't have to!


The Challenge Spies Lies Allies!!! Did You Know Amanda's A Single Mother Frontline Nurse? With a BABY?
10/15/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse talking about the Challenge and slippery TJ's twists and tricks. Spoiler: No more pairs because now there are teams. Ruby, Emerald, and Sapphire. For whatevs reason people seem to think Emerald is where it’s at but Josh and Devin are just not it in our opinion.  Pricilla gets voted into the lair and challenges Ashley even though Amanda was right there, and lost for her foolishness. Over in Bevies we still hate Erika, and Rinna, and really everyone but Garcelle is a monster still. All that and bonus pickle talk, in...


The Challenge Spies Lies Allies!!! Something Something Cory's Abs
10/08/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse talking about the Challenge, but first we do our best to decode the deeper meaning behind the food fights on VPR.  If we agree that pre-workout is code for Adderall, wtf is chicken parmesan?  Over at the Challenge, Cara is finally watching and is attracted to everyone, especially Cory's abs but she is already over TJ's trickery.  We also dive into Housewives and Cayleigh's personal history of being cool.  We'll have to take her at her word, all that and more in the Doghouse.


Big Brother 23 Finale!!! Big Delusional X'd OUT!
10/01/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse talking 'bout X's big win and celebrating the end of the BB season by ignoring the Chenvez. Kyland and his non-apology can fuck off, but Big D can suck it hard. Congratulations to Tiff on winning America's favorite Houseguest, we were always rooting for you. Thanks for a fun season but we are glad to have our lives back. Bonus Bravo content



Big Brother 23 First Part HOH!!! Chenvez Is Here On A Sunday Because She Hates Jesus
09/27/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse doing their best to make a boring ass episode seem watchable.  The house plead their cases and the points get wilder as it goes on.  X makes some solid points, Azah stretches a bit and Big D leaves no doubts that the D stands for Delusional.  To the surprise of no one, especially Cayleigh, X had the stamina needed to ride the boat the best and longest, now Azah and D will have to go head to head in round 2.  All that plus bonus Chenvez hate, in the Doghouse.
 


Big Brother 23 Eviction!!! The Sniffer Gets Snuffed
09/24/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the doghouse, for real.  After telling you Tiffany and Hannah were next to go, we decided not to waste your time being all correct and shit last week.  Anyway can you believe Kyland really tried to fight X out here on live t.v.? Now everyone knows X isn't a bartender because he would have had some moves for that bitch.  Basically, Kyland is the worst and we are happy he's in jury, no doubt enduring the wrath of the scorned Sketch Beth.  X is sitting pretty right now, but he has to win...


Big Brother 23 Noms!!! Kyland is Fake AF
09/13/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing tonight's HOH comp and noms and much to our dismay Kyland won that shit so Tiff and Hannah are on the block.  Tiff better win that veto comp.  We also discuss jury management and how Kyland's unlikable ass doesn't have much of a shot at winning. Also bonus high school gym class talk and Cara catches us up on Teen Mom. All that and more in the Doghouse.



Big Brother 23 Double Eviction!!! Zero Surprises
09/10/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing tonight's dub evict and to exactly no one's surprise (except maybe Alyssa) Claire and Alyssa went to jury. Julie's outfit was brutal, as usual. The Cookout did it! Now it's time for the shit to start.  Hannah was the last HOH which basically means that Tiff better win that HOH or her ass is going home. Thursday's double eviction will be way more exciting than this week's for sure.  In other BB news, Celebrity Big Brother is happening this winter, so listen to our cast wish lists/demands. Cayleigh updates Ca...


Big Brother 23 Veto!!! Alyssa Is From Florida - ZING!!!!
09/09/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing tonight's Veto Competition and it's fallout.  Alyssa's big win was worst case scenario for Tiffany's game and the Cookout began to question whether or not they could trust Tiff.  Tiff stayed true to her alliance and nominated her best girl Claire, all but sealing her fate.  Zing Bot underwhelms but at least he delivers his lines with more integrity than Chenvez.  In the Bravoverse we discuss Potomac  and other messy housewife shit, and more, probably, in the Doughhouse.



Big Brother 23 Noms!!! Trouble At The Cookout
09/06/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing tonight's nominations.  Sunday we told y'all that Tiff won HOH because we aren't here to play in your faces like Moonvez and CBS, anyway tonight we learned that the Cookout wanted Claire out this week so that move didn't go over great with the alliance.  As expected, X and Alyssa are up on the block, but will the Veto comp change that?  Cayleigh thinks that it doesn't matter, with the double eviction, Alyssa and Claire are gone this Thursday, while skeptical ass Cara thinks the Cookout will implode sooner.  Bonus kitc...


Big Brother 23 Eviction!!! I GLADLY To Evote Sarah Bef
09/03/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing tonight's live eviction and HOH endurance comp.  SketchB is finally off our tvs (well except for those annoying ass jury check-ins, we get it Brit, you can kick that statue's ass with your karate) Derek F gladly to evotes his ass to the dround during the first commercial break, while Tiff held on for the long haul. Chenvez, that rotton bitch, revealed the next two Thursdays will be Double evictions, which is bad news for Alyssa and Claire. Also the Challenge and Bev Hills shit and probably more, in the D...


Big Brother 23 Veto!!! Kyland Is A Turtle From Naked & Afraid
09/02/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing tonight's Veto Comp and debating whether or not Sketch Beth has inserted her finger into Kyland's rectum.Hannah's big Veto win allowed her to remove X from the block, but not before Kyland blows up his own game trying to save SB.  Tomorrow will no doubt be SB's last day, but who will be the next target? Has Kyland sketched everyone out enough that he could be a target ? In the Bravoverse, Ramona's bedazzled titties confused the shit out of Cayleigh. What the hell was that episode? All that and m...


Big Brother 23 Noms!!! And Secret HOH!!! And Then More Noms!!!
08/30/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the doghouse and for this very special episode, Cayleigh is stranded in Fishkill, NY and she’s taking that rage out on SBeast, Cara cries more than Kyland about Dreamboat’s eviction and Cayleigh points out how smooth X’s chest is. Claire wins the Coin of Destiny, overthrowing Tiff as HOH but keeps the noms the same. There seem to be exactly zero scenarios in which SBeast makes it off the block this week, but we’re always expecting the unexpected (fuck you Chenvez). All that and more in the doghouse


Big Brother 23 Eviction!!! Derek's X & Tiffany's W
08/27/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing Baby D's dismissal and Tiff's big win.  We think SBeast is gone next week, but what is Tiff's plan to execute?  Chenvez was nonstop embarrassing as usual and we can't help but ponder if Kyland was throwing shade when he complimented those ugly ass earrings. Cayleigh updates our asses on the Challenge, spoiler alert: there's still too many people.  In the Bravoverse, we ponder how Dorit can still be the worst person at the table, while sitting across from someone who literally stole from orphans and widows (allegedly). All that and...


Big Brother 23 Veto!!! Derek X Domino
08/26/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing tonight's Veto Comp discussing X's big win. Dominos Motherfucker. X may have won the golden power of veto, but Dereck F won our hearts by being the only one to go for that money.   Seems certain that Cara will have her heart broken before Sarah Beast's reign of terror ends, but our girl Tiff is going all out to try and save him--is that for real or just her jury game though? All that and more hot takes and sound effects in the doghouse.


Big Brother 23 Noms!!! Dickmatized
08/23/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing dicks on our tvs-literally and metaphorically. Sarah Beasts reign of terror continues as she places familiar faces Claire and Derek F both up as pawns.
SBeast thinks she's playing her best game, but we all can see Kyland is pulling the strings here.  Alyssa wins the High Rollers comp and takes Big D off the block, but her luck runs out when the roulette wheel lands on X.


Big Brother 23 Eviction!!! Britini's Swan Rap That We Definitely Mentioned
08/20/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the doghouse, and in a bigger twist than BB has provided for us all season, Cara caught an episode and Cayleigh -- didn't. Lord help us as we rely on her memory alone for the recap. Cayleigh's concern about Claire's role in the future destruction of humankind heightens, as Cara's attraction for Kyland wanes, but only a little. WE FUCKIN FORGOT TO TALK ABOUT THE RAPPING because we relied on Cara's recap. Jesus Christ Cara. But we remember Cayleigh's deep hatred for Sarah Beth as she takes HOH. Plus bonus thoughts on Bev...


Big Brother 23 HOH & Noms!!! Sarah Beth Only Eats The Middle Of A Baguette
08/16/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the doghouse after an extended mental health break. Listen as we joyfully reminisce about the patriarchy being bashed BB style with Christian's unceremonious eviction,
 Chenvez's resemblance to a turd, Sarah Beth's the fucking worst, Derek F's sass level and why did Kyland have to win?

Cayleigh catches up on the Challenge because someone has to and Cara caught up on Bevs so we hit that too. All that and more in the Doghouse.


Big Brother 23 Eviction!!! Whit is Whack
08/06/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing the houseguests unanimous decision to get rid of Whitney. Whitney believes she was evicted because of her commitment to female empowerment so Cara ranks the male houseguests in order of hotness to help bash the patriarchy. And Cayleigh explains the importance of washing your feet. We are hoping for a Tiff and/or Hannah HOH but will also accept a Dreamboat Derek and/or Xavier HOH because they are the hottest. All that and more in the Doghouse.


Big Brother 23 Noms!!! Claire Is The Guy Whose Name I Forget From Terminator 2
08/02/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the Doghouse discussing Claire's Wild Card Comp win and Christian nominating Whitney and Hannah. Big D is correct that Whitney's outfit is ugly, but he need to let that bitch live a little fashion wise and just attack her for being Q-Anon. Is Claire personally responsible for the future destruction of the human race with her AI work? Cayleigh says yes.
 All that and more hot takes in the doghouse!


Big Brother 23 Eviction!!! I Sadly to Evote Brant
07/30/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the doghouse discussing tonight's eviction and HOH comp. All went as viewers expected: Julie looked like shit, Big D fumbled his words while attempting to cast his vote, Britini forced us to sit through a slam performance, and Brant was blindsided-ish? Christian won the HOH comp, ensuring that Cayleigh will be forced to see the nasty name Chrisalyss for at least two more weeks. In the Bravoverse, Cara still ain't seen shit so we didn't say shit about it. All that and more! Or not, in the doghouse.



Big Brother 23 Veto!!! Brent is a Dizzy Bitch
07/29/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are in the doghouse discussing tonight's veto competition and the struggles of looking cool while performing karate. Brent beat Britini but embarrassed himself in every other conceivable way. Christian won the power of veto and chose to keep the noms the same, which is bad news for Brent and Cayleigh (the only other person who thinks he should stay in the house). In the Bravoverse, Ramona can't even keep quiet long enough to let her dead brother give her a message from the other side. All that and more in the doghouse!


Big Brother 23 Wildcard & Noms!! Brent Is A Stale Cracker
07/26/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the doghouse discussing tonight's Wild Card Comp and Houseguest Nominations.  Britini blames her bad math on Tiffany and Dreamboat Derek X while Brent rubs everyone the wrong way.
 We also ponder what the hell Azah is doing and just a little more! 


Big Brother 23 Eviction!!! Bad Bad Rap
07/23/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the doghouse discussing the house's huge mistake in getting rid of Frenchie after being forced to sit through and fake support Britni's rap. Some things are unforgiveable and we hope Xavier puts her on the block for Hip Hop Culture next week. And also Whitney and/or Brent or Christian because we hate them all.  No real updates in the Bravoverse tonight, just that Erika is still the worst. All that and more noodle talk in the doghouse.



Big Brother 23 Veto!!! Don't French It Up
07/22/2021

Cara and Cayleigh are back in the doghouse discussing the veto comp and Frenchie's over all failures.  Dreamboat Derek X. won the veto but ultimately chose not to use the power, because he is scared af (according to Cayleigh). Despite the odds, Cayleigh is hoping Frenchie can pull through while Cara has had enough of his shit.
 In the Bravoverse, Cara is one of the millions who can't be bothered to watch RHONY but we got feelings on Potomac. So many feelings, listen and find out.
