Saying Goodbye to Carrie Bradshaw

Jordana is traveling (no, she’s not on the struggle bus again) but Sami and Aleen are here to give the ~411~ on all things pop culture. First off, Sami spills some more *piping* hot tea about the royal family, via The Palace Papers book she’s reading. Did you know Kate Middleton basically followed Prince William to school? Then onto the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ latest episode, where Sami and Aleen debrief it all: Dorit’s robbery, Erika’s lawsuits, and Sutton’s odd behavior. They wrap up with a Kim and Pete update, (is Kim controlling—yes or no), before sharing their current TV obsessions. Sami’s watching a great new show and Aleen’s watching a great show from two years ago (better late than never). Tune in for their recs and comment your own in a 5 star review.

Before diving into life updates, Sami, Aleen, and Jordana discuss the major update that will affect all of our lives—the Roe v. Wade news.

Podcast and Pizza Hut), Sami explains how she’s been bamboozled out of her home office, and Aleen shares her furniture-ordering struggle. Re: pop culture, there’s a lot of sh*t to discuss.

Sami and Aleen are here to hold down the fort, while Jordana’s on the struggle bus. No literally, as we speak Jordana’s on the Pizza Hut Struggle Bus doing a live U Up? show with co-host Jared Freid—tune in for more info. And across the pond, the royals are on a more metaphorical struggle bus. Sami’s been reading Tina Brown’s new book, and she spills some royal tea about the monarchy, mistresses, and young Prince William’s antics. They then debrief the Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis custody sitch—Olivia got served custody papers while onstage at Cinemacon—before diving into some other legal matters: Blac Chyna and the Kardashians’ ongoing suit and the Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard saga. The ep comes to a close with some TV talk, and be sure to comment what they should watch next.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Aleen, Sami, and Jordana are all here this week, but the latter two are tuning in from Miami. Why, might you ask? For Faux Pas of course! They’re bringing the goods to the sunshine state, and if you want them in your area then just ask (no literally, go to your local liquor store and ask them to carry Faux Pas). Now that we’ve addressed the cocktail, onto the main course: pop culture. First up is Coachella, and they share some personal desert experiences before diving into this year’s festival (and ofc address the Revolve fest mess). Then onto more drama: the A$AP and Rihanna cheating rumor, the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial, and the Blac Chyna vs the Kardashians trial. Pro tip: crack open a Faux Pas while you listen.

The betches are back (all three this time) and they’ve got an exciting announcement: meet Faux Pas, the *delicious* canned cocktail (made by yours truly). Sami, Aleen, and Jordana give all the BTS info on their latest endeavor, including the inspo behind the beverage, all the different flavors, and how you can get ’em. Tune in for the tea—actually scratch that, tune in for the cocktail. Then onto pop cultah (as they say). You’ll need a drink for this one, ’cause there’s a lot going on. Britney Spears is pregnant, Bennifer is engaged (that green diamond tho), Hailey Bieber asks trolls to GTFO, Brooklyn Beckham & Nicola Peltz’s $$$ wedding, Julia Haart is stirring the company pot (again), and Rihanna’s pregnant Vogue cover is amazing. Told you, lots to sip over. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jordana is moving apartments today (again?) but Aleen and Sami are holding down the @ Betches fort. Sami starts off by sharing a Twitter thread (we know she loves her threads) about kids tuning into supernatural abilities—like ghost stuff. In other words, just a regular Thursday morning convo. After Aleen gets too freaked out, they dive into celeb news: Kourtney and Travis got married (sort of) and Erika Jayne has been named in her ex-husband’s lawsuit (much to debrief). Then onto TV drama: they review last week’s ep of The Dropout before sharing their thoughts on The Girl From Plainville. The episode wraps up with a quick fangirling of Amy Schumer— ’cause who doesn’t love Amy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

After much jet-setting, the gang’s finally all here. Sami, Aleen, and Jordana are ready to dig into the sh*t show that is pop culture, but first, a recap of that jet-setting. Jordana just got back from her ~trip of a lifetime~ honeymoon, which included skydiving in Dubai (yes, she was terrified). Jordana, Aleen, and Sami then dive (so much diving today) into all the latest in celeb drama. First up is Meghan Markle’s new female-focused podcast, Archetypes. They have a couple q’s—why is Meghan’s voice different? And why does her intro kind of sound like Mean Girls? Then a quick convo about the topic of the hour (or of the last week, really), Will Smith’s Oscars slap—you know the one. They wrap up the ep with a quick chat about Hilaria and Alec Baldwin—and their seventh child. Much to discuss. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today’s episode begins in a dream—no literally, Aleen shares a very *unique* dream she had the other night including Succession, Gumby, and a coffee date (she and Sami ofc debrief). Then onto *real* pop culture news that feels like a dream: RHONY is renewed with a part new cast/part OG cast. Can’t you just feel the drama brewing already? Then onto the world of Kardadshians. Pete’s mom wants him to have a baby with Kim, Britney Spears doesn’t know who Pete is, & Kylie Jenner is undoing her son’s name (it was Wolf BTW). Sami & Aleen wrap up with some TV talk including And Just Like That’s szn 2 renewal, the new Netflix movie Windfall (SPOILERS start at 32:00 and end at 44:12), and a quick recap of some current favs: The Dropout, Life & Beth, and We Crashed. If you have any other recs, send ’em our way (with a 5 star review pls).
