Unhinged and On Camera

This week on Unhinged and On Camera, we're talking about the Bravo women who carry water for the patriarchy! We're joined by psychologist Lauren Napolitano to unpack the women who seem determined to defend the boys' club. From Lisa Vanderpump taking toxic men under her wing and opening restaurants in their honor, to Southern Charm's Patricia Altschul continuing to come after Kathryn Dennis Calhoun while hosting gentlemen's dinners for the show's underwhelming men, we're asking: why are these women so committed to protecting the patriarchy?

And what exactly is the connection between Ghislaine Maxwell, the Epstein files, and...

We're back with another chaos episode! This time, we're breaking down EVERYTHING from Bravo Fan Fest 2026 in Charleston. Which shows got renewed? Which moments were met with boos? And was the whole thing a bit of a letdown? Then we're making our way through the Housewives universe, from Karen Huger's role on RHOP to the shocking realization that we're actually LOVING Real Housewives of New York, and, of course, the great flower debate on Salt Lake City. We're covering all the Bravo chaos, the drama, the hot takes, and everything in between. Tune in now to hear our thoughts on...

Bravo made a BIG splash at BravoCon when they announced Vicki Gunvalson’s triumphant return as a full-time Housewife for the 20th anniversary season of The Real Housewives of Orange County. But the OG of the OC is back with a new agenda: control the narrative, protect her new relationship, and keep certain parts of her personal life off camera. This week, we’re diving deep into Vicki’s romantic history, including the rise and fall of her marriage to Donn, to unpack how her past relationships and seemingly endless need for adoration may be shaping her present. Love her or fin...

This week on Unhinged and On Camera, we’re diving deep into the messiest storyline on Next Gen NYC: Ariana, Charlie, and Liam’s complicated love triangle. Was Charlie actually the better choice for Ariana, or was Liam the connection she really needed? We debate both sides while unpacking the deeper psychological dynamics at play, from attraction and attachment to insecurity, validation, and the patterns that keep these three going in circles. Then we’re putting the entire Next Gen NYC cast on trial: Who deserves to stay, who needs to go, and who is bringing absolutely nothing to the table...

We’re taking a little break from our regularly scheduled Bravo chaos for a very special episode of Unhinged & On Camera.This week, we’re joined by plastic surgeon Dr. Tantillo for a candid conversation about plastic surgery, reality television, and the complicated beauty standards women are navigating in the modern era. From the Housewives to The Valley and everything in between, we’re talking about how reality TV has influenced the way we see ourselves, how social media has changed the plastic surgery conversation, where the line between enhancement and addiction can get blurry, and the pressure women face to loo...

We're breaking the fourth wall and stepping inside the House of Stassi! After binge-watching Season 1 of Hulu's reality-show-within-a-reality-show, we're unpacking all the biggest questions: Was Stassi really cancelled? Is Beau a broken man? Is everyone on her payroll? And, for the love of God, why won't this woman go to therapy?!We're diving into Stassi Schroeder's new role as Executive Producer, and ultimate architect, of her own reality show and what the series reveals about her life post-Vanderpump Rules. Plus, we've got VERY strong opinions about what we want to see if Hulu gives us a Season 2. Press play for...

With the "Scamanda" saga coming to a close on Bravo, we're taking a listener's suggestion and revisiting the scandal that changed reality TV forever: Scandoval. More than three years later, we look at where the key players ended up, who truly came out on top, and who was exposed for exactly who they were.We also explore how Scandoval reshaped not just Vanderpump Rules, but reality TV itself. Its ripple effects are still being felt on The Valley and House of Stassi. Scandal may be reality TV's greatest ratings engine—but what's the real cost once the cameras stop rolling?

We're diving into the Ocean State to break down the women of the brand-new Real Housewives of Rhode Island! Joining us is NYC-based therapist Elizabeth Hamm, whose viral content connects reality TV drama with real psychological patterns.We unpack the season's biggest feud, including Liz's now-infamous "Neva Homeless" comment, and ask: What really caused Liz to lose it in the van to Boston?

We also dig into Kelsey's storyline to separate what's authentic from what's performative, and explore the complicated, darker dynamic between Ruella and her husband Brian. If...
