PUMP RULES Podcast

A lovely chat with the lovely Jasmine Goode. Currently of The Valley and a veteran of Bachelor In Paradise, Jasmine chats with me about her long and storied career in the show business, being the only queer Black women on Bravo, representation and - of course - the Jax of it all.

Christina Cocca AKA Cocca Macocca returns for a long'n'lusty discussion of the latest episodes, the manic mystery of Jo, dropping the parent card. Lala's Ariana envy, production desperately trying to gaffer-tape the fourth wall (that was smashed into dust a long long time ago) back together, uncomfortable conversations, JamesMae, our dream cast for Bravo's Christmas House, Jonathan Antin's "Blow Out" and much much more.

Christina Cocca AKA Cocca Macocca joins me to talk the season so far, Episode 12, Sandoval's Tier Of Tears, the seeming obsession of production to pull all of us behind the fourth wall again, semi-sober curiosity, Lisa's collusion in these farcical initiatives, CHICAGO, and more. We taped for at least 3 hours, so look forward to and equally lengthy part two with my absolutely delightful guest Christina.

A bonus from the Craig & Friends Movie Club series Released in 1990 TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES was a blockbuster smash and no one burned with the fever of Turtle Power more than my guest, Tom Schwartz (Vanderpump Rules). Get a nice cheese pizza, stay out of the sewer and enjoy our chat about this cultural phenomenon. Craig & Friends On Apple Podcasts On Spotify Follow the show on ⁠Instagram⁠ & ⁠Twitter

The Queen Of The Vanderpump Valley Of The Dolls Lauren Dawson returns for a catch-up on the season so far, Ariana unfollowing me, the Michael Ngo fashion show, Brock's beach bummers, Lauren turning on Schwartz, Lala gaslighting Katie, Ally as VPR's Greek chorus, James shredding Sandoval in the rehearsal room, whether Rachel is getting the episodes early, tlive audio of a Most Extras show, the Sandoval of it all and more.

A News Bulletin Mini-Episode taped during Jax's Studio City premiere party for The Valley, featuring my first encounter with Sandoval in nearly four years PLUS an exclusive chat with Jeremy Madix about the hug heard around the world - only minutes after it happened. Stay tuned for more material from the premiere night in upcoming episodes of Pump Rules Podcast.

The fabulous Jenny Blaze of Blaze & Bravo joins me to talk Jax & Brittany's somewhat surprise seperation, the tricky trail of seeing spoilers during filming, the Tahoe Trip, Lala's take on Scheana's struggles, Brock's true blue defense of his wife, Sandoval's PR team, having sex on Scheana's bed, Rocky's allegations, Sandoval's inability to engage in whattaboutism defenses, Lala & Sandoval's spectacular boat fight, camera crew scrambles, patio poops, Schwartz wearing his emotional exhaustion on his sleeve..and face, how Season 8 nearly killed the show, Alex Baskin's misapprehensions about the value of Scandoval to the show, cake karma, Billie Lee and more.

Follow on Instagram & Twitter

The Queen Of The Vanderpump Valley Of The Dolls AKA Lauren Dawson Of Ether & Opal joins me to battle her fear and loathing of personal public experiences -especially appearing on podcasts - with some Exposure Therapy (in honour of Scheana). We also get deep into the 2nd half of Sandoval's birthday "party", Billie Lee's glee a being back on TV, Lauren's VanderTour, her dolls in display case at Schwartz'n'Sandy's, turning her passion into creation, puzzling over Schwartz, reveling in the everything that is Katie's everything, Lauren's displeasure with Ariana & her repulsion/curiosity with Sandoval, Scheana coping with OCD & our mental health "journeys", the return to the back alley, Thanksgiving K-Holes, signs of growth and signs of grim stagnation. On a technical note: We suffered some audio lag on the satellite hookup, which always causes some crosstalk. Alas...

LA drag sensation JUDY joins me to thank Ann & talk Sandoval's "good friends", birthday blues, white noise machines, Scheana's struggles with OCD, production squeezing in a few old tricks, soundproofing, non-apologies, Schwartz'n'Sandy's, watch parties, Jax's Studio City, restorative walks on Lankershim Boulevard and more.

The moral compass of VANDERPUMP RULES joins me to talk the process and benefits of divorce, seeing what we want to see, dating again, uncomfortable realizations, non-monogamy, refusing to absorb other's negative energy, Scandoval, holding yourself accountable, trusting your intuition, betrayal, the complicated nature of being the person that everyone confides in, heteronormative tropes & roles, stepping into your power, and more.

PUMP RULES PODCAST Returns! We are BACK after a 3 season hiatus. Scandoval has blown all of our minds - none more than mine. What brought me back? It wasn't Scandoval alone. Charlie & our friend Madeline were essential (or culpable, depending on how you look at it) for my restarting this. As we reset and move forward, this episode serves as an introduction to new listeners. For longtime listeners, this is a way to refresh memories, learn why the show took a long break - and get to know Charlie. As co-founder of PUMPED - the very first Vanderpump Rules podcast ever - I have a long personal and professional history with the cast. This revived version of PRP will dive into all of that as we traipse along the primrose path of reviewing and analyzing all seasons of Vanderpump Rules. Interviews, breakdowns, bull$%2t, special event reportage...we've got so much in store for you. Enjoy! Look for my 2-part Craig & Friends chat with Katie Maloney and the Season 10 Wrap-up episode with Madeline very soon.
