Legal Team, this week we're replaying a timely episode following the news that President Trump has pardoned Todd and Julie Chrisley, leading to their release from prison. At the top of the episode, we break down what a presidential pardon actually means—and what it doesn't. Then we dive into the Chrisleys' dramatic fall from grace. Todd and Julie, stars of Chrisley Knows Best, were convicted of fraudulently obtaining millions in loans using forged documents and evading taxes, but their legal troubles started long before reality TV. This jam-packed episode covers everything from early schemes dating back to 2009 to messy family drama, multiple state and federal investigations, scorned exes, and a laundry list of allegations: RICO, bankruptcy fraud, wire fraud, tax evasion, extortion, defamation, and more.    More Chrisley content!   https://open.spotify.com/episode/0kwCOWq3DWoacBVXcxG0hp?si=8acb4461139c41ae  https://open.spotify.com/episode/7wruk5hWEy4JB0kxq7Yx9n?si=4b52524e0827487a    Access additional content and our Patreon here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://zez.am/thebravodocket⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠              The Bravo Docket podcast, the statements we make whether in our own media or elsewhere, and any content we post are for entertainment purposes only and do not provide legal advice.

Legal Team, this week Cesie's flying solo while Angela's in trial, and we're diving deep into the highly requested divorce drama between Drew Sidora and Ralph Pittman from Real Housewives of Atlanta. We break down the sealed (then unsealed, then sealed again?!) court records, go through their petitions which include Drew's claims of infidelity, and Ralph's motion for sanctions against Drew for allegedly violating Court orders. Plus, why Ralph's plea for privacy has us side-eyeing him and why Cesie thinks he might just slide into the Bravo Docket DMs after this one drops.   What's on the docket?  A look at Drew and Ralph's relationship timeline and how their split unfolded publicly.  Breakdown of what each party filed in their divorce petitions and how their claims differ.  Drew accuses Ralph of infidelity and says his mistresses sent her explicit messages.  The mutual restraining order from 2021 raises questions about the timing of their filings.  Ralph claims Drew violated the order and responds with a motion for sanctions.  Ralph's claims that Drew is keeping money from him.   Access additional content and our Patreon here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://zez.am/thebravodocket⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠            The Bravo Docket podcast, the statements we make whether in our own media or elsewhere, and any content we post are for entertainment purposes only and do not provide legal advice.

Hey legal team! I know this is a week we normally don't release an episode but we wanted to share a show we think you'll love. If you listen to The Bravo Docket, you obviously love reality TV and so do hosts Sharleen Joynt and Andy Levine of Dear Shandy. Dear Shandy is a dating advice podcast where happily married couple Sharleen & Andy (aka “Shandy”!) answer YOUR relationship questions (and you can be anonymous, so nobody has to know!). But they're also known for their hilarious take on relationship reality shows, from The Bachelor to Love is Blind. (Even Time Magazine wrote about their recaps!) They also do episodes called Love Fests, where they have a “double date” with your favorite couples from reality TV and pop culture. They are currently in the middle of recapping the newest season of The Bachelorette and we can't get enough! So after you're done listening to this episode, make sure you find Dear Shandy wherever you get your podcasts (or watch their episodes on Youtube!) so you don't miss an episode! To learn more about Dear Shandy, follow them on Instagram @dearshandy, check out their Youtube and listen every Tuesday and Thursday, wherever you get your podcasts!
