• A Lawsuit, a Life Coach, and the Reality TV Crossover We Didn’t See Coming

  Ariana and Renee immediately spiral into the universal dilemma of loving two people who cannot stand each other, which somehow leads them through parasocial loyalty, the Summer House trailer, and the NFL’s sudden reality-TV era.From there they drop into Southern Charm’s breakup timelines, Ciara’s online commentary, and the Marciano vs Demi lawsuit that has the Secret Lives universe questioning credibility, FaceTimes, and who actually gets a mic at a reunion. Beverly Hills gets its own moment too, with Dorit and PK’s separation, annulment debates, Kathy Hilton thriving, and a few new faces shifting the cast math.Plus: Kim’s Paris robbery episode takes them all the way from Simone’s downstairs perspective to diamond-in-court energy, paparazzi parallels, and one extremely questionable book title, before they wrap with Icons and Icks on everything from NFL crossovers to people outing politics online.Timestamps:00:00:00 — Cold open and the “loving people who hate each other” problem00:04:10 — Summer House trailer, NFL crossover and reality on the field00:09:30 — New York-at-Christmas plans, FAO Schwarz and Frosty’s bar00:11:50 — Southern Charm breakups, Paige, Craig, Sierra and online lines00:19:00 — Marciano vs Demi lawsuit, credibility and false-accusation fears00:27:00 — Secret Lives reunion structure, Stassi’s role and missing voices00:37:30 — Beverly Hills divorces, annulments, Kathy, Rachel and Amanda00:47:30 — Kardashians in Paris, the robbery retold and Kim’s quiet power move01:05:30 — Icons, icks and the reality TV week in a bowConnect With Us:Instagram: @friendofpodcastTikTok: @friendofpodcastFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

• Whitney Balances Her Roxie Era & Motherhood, Vanderpump’s First Impressions & Puff Daddy Definitely Did it?

  Whitney is in her full Roxie Hart era and we are so here for it — even if the internet can’t decide whether to cheer, critique, or ask how she’s doing it all as a mom. Ariana and Renee get into Puff Daddy documentaries, childhood VHS vibes (VeggieTales vs. vulgar rap — opposites attract), and the two very different ways our hosts grew up consuming pop culture.Then it’s straight into Bravo land. We break down Vanderpump’s brand-new cast and why the premiere felt more “middle of the season” than “start of something exciting.” Will we care about these people? TBD. Salt Lake City gives us accountability issues, non-apology apologies, Bronwyn unpacking childhood validation, and the sloppiest party games ever created. And Southern Charm… well, let’s just say the Austen–Audrey energy feels like a slow breakup in real time, the Craig–Venita thing still makes zero sense, Patricia on an iPad is mother, and Madison’s house has us looking at real estate we absolutely cannot afford.Stay to the end for this week’s Ick and Icon — with a Vanderpump–Salt Lake City double header and a surprising amount of love for working moms just trying to do big things on big stages.Chapters00:00 Bronchitis season and a Puff Daddy doc binge08:30 Childhood pop culture: VeggieTales vs. MuchMusic15:30 Tell Me Lies rewatch and Toronto spotting23:00 Whitney’s Roxie Hart moment & motherhood expectations31:00 Working-mom double standards and viral sports comparisons39:00 Vanderpump Rules premiere: first impressions48:30 RHOSLC: apologies, boundaries & validation spirals1:02:30 Southern Charm: houses, cats & Craig-Venita confusion1:08:30 Ick & IconFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

• Jared Osmond on Love, Editing & Becoming RHOSLC’s “Villain”

  If you think you know Jared Osmond, this conversation will undo everything you thought you understood. Jared opens up about what it’s really been like stepping into the Bravo universe — from unexpected casting to the emotional whiplash of watching himself become the season’s “villain.”We talk about the love story that refuses to quit, how off-camera dynamics get twisted into on-camera narratives, and why real life — kids, careers, relationships — is way harder to navigate than any scene you’ll see on TV. Jared also shares what the public doesn’t see: the spiritual side, the conflict-averse human behind the headlines, and the toll the show has taken on the people he loves most.It’s honest, vulnerable, funny, and at times heartbreaking. Whether you adore him, fear him, or still have whiplash from Bravocon, this chat gives you the version of Jared that the edit never will.Timestamps:01:30 How he ended up on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City04:00 Living inside the “villain” narrative07:00 The Brittany dynamic, then and now10:00 Cast relationships & private conversations13:00 Bravocon, boos & public perception16:00 How filming affects real-life family19:00 Career, reputation & life outside the show22:00 Why he won’t attend the reunionConnect With Us:Instagram: @friendofpodcastTikTok: @friendofpodcastFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

• Is Demi Returning? Secret Lives Renews & Stassi Rumours

  The internet has questions — and so do we. Secret Lives of Mormon Wives just announced another massive season order, and everyone’s wondering the same thing: is Demi actually returning? We dig into the reunion energy, the nonstop filming schedule, and why the cast seems to be living in a perpetual state of “mic’s still on.”Then it’s over to Vegas, where Stassi rumours are bubbling again. Were cameras rolling at the Unwell event? Is her long-teased show finally happening? And why does every sighting come with a new theory?We also get into the resurfaced online chatter around Kim Kardashian’s Call Her Daddy interview — including the unexpectedly honest moments that are making their rounds on TikTok again.Plus: Tell Me Lies tension, Sex Lives of College Girls recommendations, Elf-on-the-Shelf parenting confessions, advent calendar lore, and winter sickness solidarity.It’s that perfect December blend of Bravo questions, pop-culture breadcrumbs, and moms trying to stay upright.

• The Fruity Pebbles Saga, Lively/Baldoni Rumours & Another RHOSLC Meltdown?

  Ariana and Renee show up fully caffeinated (and maybe Vyvanse-assisted) for a marathon pop-culture breakdown that starts with TikTok conspiracy dumps and somehow ends in a deep dive on parenting styles. They unpack the growing Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni noise, the Ryan Reynolds reputation whispers, and what Taylor’s wedding guest list may quietly reveal.Then it's onto the exploding Secret Lives of Mormon Wives timeline — haircuts, call-outs, Fruity Pebbles lore, and the kind of online behaviour that makes you question everyone’s moral compass.Plus: that Salt Lake City plane story, an emotional therapy moment, the Dancing With the Stars upset, fresh Netflix docs, and a classic Southern Charm party that sparks new romantic math.Timestamps:00:00:00 — Vyvanse Vibes & Morning Energy 00:04:07 — Haircuts, Extensions & Identity Shifts 00:05:41 — TikTok Deep Dive: Blake, Ryan & The Missing Posts 00:10:56 — Taylor’s Wedding Rumours & Friendship Math 00:14:05 — Mormon Wives Fallout & The Fruity Pebbles Saga 00:23:12 — Documentary Alerts: Simon Cowell & Puff Daddy 00:25:35 — Dancing With the Stars: Popularity vs. Performance 00:27:23 — Salt Lake City’s Plane Story & Apology Math 00:36:00 — Therapy Dynamics & Parenting Reflections 00:47:16 — Southern Charm: Parties, Crushes & Frat-Boy ChaosFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.
