Tom Sandoval is ending his already not so great year in a not so great way - let go from Vanderpump Rules along with all other OGs, the closing of Schwartz and Sandy's after a rocky run and more. We chat about the year of Sandoval, share updates on his relationship with model Victoria Lee Robinson and what we can expect from The Most Extras “most extra” front man as he prepares for a 2025 which will ultimately see him facing off, sans attorney, in court against Rachel Leviss. Despite many claims that she could be faking it for a storyline, Dorit rises to the RHOBH occasion, finds her voice, carries the season - so far and makes moves to prepare for the rest of the season and an upcoming year in which she is bound to experience many “firsts”.  Teddi, who has been very judgmental of others' affairs, relationships and mess ups, seems to be the target of a lot of on line trolling, is being mentioned on RHOBH more than when she was on the show and has been sending mixed messages about Kyle, Edwin and the horse trainer which leaves many wondering wtf is really going on. Finally, Bethenny Frankel has a new message for Kelly Bensimon, flaunts her new man Tom even more than before and tries to balance the holidays, work, motherhood and romance as she closes out the year with a bang.  All this and more as we are joined by the one and only Psychic Leota from The Psychic Source.

We break down Teddi's vague, world salad of a statement on her divorce from Edwin and analyze whether as a Real Housewives Podcast Host, she, he or us have the duty to talk about drama as it unfolds in our personal lives the way we talk about all the other Housewives' dirt. Finally, we discuss more setbacks for Diddy - new claims against the once revered rapper, incriminating jail cell notes and bail denied once again, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce - the gift that keeps on giving to all in their inner camp many times over and last, but certainly not least, Cher's scorching hot new memoir which leaves no stone unturned and holds nothing back in taking everyone to task who has done this epic icon wrong throughout her multi-decade long reign at the top. As we said, everyone's fav time of the month. @melissariversofficial @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility)  LIPOZENE - Lipozene.com (One of Americas Most Trusted Weight Management Supplements Starting At Just $29.95) ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging)  PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Shop The Holiday Sale To Save 20% Sitewide and Support The Show By mentioning That BEHIND THE VELVET ROPE Sent You In Your Post-Checkout Survey!

Sean Kanan steps Behind The Rope. Let us start at the beginning. The Karate Kid Part III, The Outsiders, and of course his long run as A.J. Quartermaine on General Hospital, is here to mention it all. Sean talks GH Co-Stars Ricky Martin, Vanessa Marcil, and Antonio Sabato Jr. He also discusses some of his other “Soap Opera” friends such as Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson. Sean discusses the differences between being on General Hospital, The Bold and the Beautiful and The Young and the Restless. We figured today the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with Sean and a perfect end to the holiday weekend as we dissect how Reality TV has become the modern day soap opera with much better returns on investment.  @sean.kanan @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  HINGE - (Refresh Your Hinge Profile Early OR Download Hinge Today and Set Your 2025 Dating Intentions Now!

Jennie Nguyen steps back Behind The Rope.  Jennie is here to chat all about her experience as one of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.  Jennie talks highs and lows of being a Bravo RHOSLC Housewife, cast mates Lisa, Heather, Meredith, Whitney, Jen and Mary. Speaking of Mary, Jennie talks about why they just did not see eye to eye, the absence of closure due to Mary's failure to attend the reunion and many of Mary's controversial statements toward Jennie during their time together on the show.  Jennie also opens up about her much publicized exit, the public's reaction and whether Bravo has a double standard for Housewives who are in “good favor” with the network.  Recorded in a simpler time before Monica, Jennie held nothing back. Finally, Jennie talks about Jen Shah's current jail time, being on a Housewives show that involved the Feds, Jen's future, the future of RHOSLC and what is next for this power house Mom and entrepreneur who won't be slowing down anytime soon.

A few months ago, at the close of last season's very toxic RHONJ, we discussed the vision we foresaw for the future of RHONJ. In other words, who would be back and who would not be back. Today, we step into the alternative universe with another, possibly clearer vision. Melissa or Teresa. That is the question and regardless of whether Melissa or Teresa are back, how, if at all, are the rest of the cast affected. Short answer, not so much at all.

A few months ago, at the close of last season's very toxic RHONJ, we discussed the vision we foresaw for the future of RHONJ. In other words, who would be back and who would not be back. Today, we step into the alternative universe with another, possibly clearer vision. Melissa or Teresa. That is the question and regardless of whether Melissa or Teresa are back, how, if at all, are the rest of the cast affected. Short answer, not so much at all. We break down how and why, discuss when we expect to hear about Season 15 casting, dispel the many, many many false rumors out there and much more.  Finally, we touch upon the current state of Housewives with RHOBH, RHOP, RHOC and RHOSLC all airing, starting, or finishing very soon.   @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  OAK ESSENTIALS - oakessentials.com (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Your First Order of Clean, Spa Quality Skincare Essentials) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging)  GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble's Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Melissa's Old Nose - Gabriella - steps back Behind The Rope.  She's baaack and so is the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.  Gabriella is here to help break down the stellar trailer, the upcoming season - Dorit vs. Kyle, Dorit vs. Sutton, Sutton vs Kyle, newbies Jennifer Tilly and Boz, Kyle & Mo's separation, Kyle & Morgan, Dorit & PK's separation, the joys of Sutton Stracke and what it is like to watch a Housewives show with no specific teams where the women are actually rich, really, really rich.  Speaking of teams, with Gabriella here, the convo turns to RHONJ. We discuss Jennifer Aydin's reaction and likely future once she finds out she is not returning to RHONJ, why TreStumps are still angry with Dolo, why Dolores would never “work” with Bloggers the way Tre and Aydin “allegedly” did, why Tre and Aydin have still not “learned”, what Teresa told her about her brother Joey Gorga, Andy Cohen's true feelings about Joey G, when we are expected to hear about the future of RHONJ, who is most likely returning and what she has heard about casting and potential newbies.  Whew!

We figured today the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with The OG of the OC so kick back, relax and enjoy this trip down memory lane regarding some of Vicki's most iconic moments - the State of Oklahoma, Slade Smiley's infamous “pig” comment, her plastic surgeries throughout the years, Lauri Peterson's Ski Slope “multiple partners” and of course, last but certainly not least, just how many people can you fit into a family van?

Vicki Gunvalson claims Bravo did not tell her that her Mom died for an hour while she filmed a scene for RHOC and that Reality TV has a dark side. Tell us something we don't know.  Two past RHOC are prime for a return, RHOC concludes with a bang, Tamra claims she is protected by Bravo and that only 3% of the audience really hates her and last, but certainly not least, viewers compare Tamra's toxic RHOC behavior this season to Teresa's last RHONJ season. Ironic considering the two dislike each other thanks to Louie Ruelas.  RHOSLC has not missed a beat despite the fans fear that this season would be lackluster without Von Tease, Mike Shouhed's abusive past resurfaces - again, Carl Radke and Danielle Olivera are rumored to be dating, Karen Huger is rumored to be carrying on all over the DMV with a younger suitor and much more! @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  SONO BELLO - sonobello.com/velvet (Get Friends & Family Rates During This Fall Savings Event on Laser Assisted Lipo & More!)

Brandi Glanville urges Caroline Manzo to come out of the closet, slams her again and claps back at fans who have an issue with her, all in a series of tweets fired off over the past few weeks. Bravo is rumored to want Lisa Vanderpump out of Pump Rules - well the rumor is that they are trying to push/force her out of her own show as salary disputes remain broken down. We offer a few theories as to who is holding up salary talks - not who you think, the likelihood everyone will return, the chances of Rachel Leviss appearing and whether this once top rated Bravo show is worth investing in for one last season of closure. The Real Housewives of London is coming, Dubai is moving forward for Season 3 and RHONY is, well, chugging along. Every ex Real Housewife seems to have a new Podcast and we have a lot to say about ‘em all - and we mean all. Finally, Teresa and Louie seem to be having more financial problems than ever. Allegedly.

There are so many rumors swirling in the VanderVerse about the future of VPR. Contract disputes, demands for money, the fact that Ariana has moved on both figuratively and literally - as her and Tom's house goes up for sale and last, but certainly not least, a cast that is much divided with Lala not speaking to Ariana at all. We break down all these facts, discuss the likelihood VPR will return for a final season and address the rumors that the next gen of VanderKids is about to emerge in VPR 2.0. The Real Housewives of Dubai is green lit for Season 3, Caroline Brooks tells fans to F off and we, the BravoVerse, gasp in shock that this low rated franchise is returning. Of course, we have a few theories on that. Finally, we break down our recent run in with Lisa Rinna and discuss the return of RHOBH - trailer released and whether Rinna would, should and could return as a diamond holder one day. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men's Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women's) BRANCH BASICS - branchbasics.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off Your Entire Order Of These Non-Toxic, All-Natural Cleaning Products) ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging)  IRESTORE  (Get 25% Off iRestore's Illumina Face Mask with the code VELVET25 at https://bit.ly/4eMcFQK) HEALTHY GUT SECRET -  HealthyGutSecret.com/Velvet (Watch This Video Right Here HealthyGutSecret.com/Velvet and See Exactly How I Am Able To Stay In Shape) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble's Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston's Award Winning Hair Care) RAKUTEN - rakuten.com (Get the Rakuten App NOW and Join the 17 Million Members Who Are Already Saving!  Your Cash Back really adds up!)

A nothing is off limits trip down all things Vanderpump lane with the #1 guy in the group, Mr. Jax Taylor. @mrjaxtaylor @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men's Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women's) BRANCH BASICS - branchbasics.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off Your Entire Order Of These Non-Toxic, All-Natural Cleaning Products) IRESTORE  (Get 25% Off iRestore's Illumina Face Mask with the code VELVET25 at https://bit.ly/4eMcFQK) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging)  HEALTHY GUT SECRET -  HealthyGutSecret.com/Velvet (Watch This Video Right Here HealthyGutSecret.com/Velvet and See Exactly How I Am Able To Stay In Shape) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble's Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston's Award Winning Hair Care) RAKUTEN - rakuten.com (Get the Rakuten App NOW and Join the 17 Million Members Who Are Already Saving!  Your Cash Back really adds up!)

Gretchen Rossi steps back Behind The Rope. It is hard to imagine it's been seven seasons since Gretchen was last a full time cast member on The Real Housewives of Orange County. Gretchen reflects back on her several season run on the granddaddy of The Real Housewives Franchise. We discuss the good (meeting fiancé Slade Smiley, performing with the Pussycat Dolls), the bad (there seems to be no love loss between her and former co-star Tamra Judge, the 80s Bunco Party, a reference to a certain muppet who goes by the name Miss Piggy), and the other (how RHOC has forever changed her life). Gretchen chats about many of her former colleagues - Vicki Gunvalson, Heather Dubrow, Alexis “Jesus Juggs” Bellino and more. With all the talk in the past few weeks about Tamra's “Spectrum” Diagnosis, Tamra's Takedown, potential lawsuits and former RHOC cast members and Housewives across all franchises, including Gretchen, weighing in on the current and decade long past actions of Tamra, we figured today the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with the one and only Gretchen Rossi. Part II starts now.  @gretchenrossi @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston's Award Winning Hair Care) OAK ESSENTIALS - oakessentials.com (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Your First Order of Clean, Spa Quality Skincare Essentials) RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble's Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men's Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women's) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Crystal Kung Minkoff and Cynthia Bailey have a new Podcast and we have a lot to say. This season of RHOP continues with the two main OGS - Karen and Gizelle - still at odds. Yes, Ashley, we know you are an OG too. Jennifer Aydin continues in her five stages of grief and still seems to be clueless about the fact that she will not be returning to RHONJ.  RHOSLC continues on with Mary's participation, Whitney and Meredith growing farther apart, Bronwyn making the rounds and much more. Katie Maloney is in love, Jen Shah's release date is moved up again and RHONY continues on with highs, lows and everything in between. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston's Award Winning Hair Care) OAK ESSENTIALS - oakessentials.com (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Your First Order of Clean, Spa Quality Skincare Essentials) RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble's Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men's Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women's) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Vanderpump Rules Season 12. The rumored final season. We break down what to expect, who will and will not be back and whether Rachel Leviss, now that she has ended her Podcast, will return for one last hurrah.  BravoCon 2025 is set to return, sorta.  Teresa Giudice may be angered at Jacqueline Laurita based on some of Jacqueline's recent comments, Tamra Judge's “bad”, or “bad edit” depending how you look at it, season of RHOC continues, Teresa Giudice's current stint on The Villains may be helping her RHONJ future and last, but certainly not least, Rihanna has made some crazy, confusing observations reading the Housewives and RHOSLC, RHOP and RHONY. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston's Award Winning Hair Care) OAK ESSENTIALS - oakessentials.com (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Your First Order of Clean, Spa Quality Skincare Essentials) RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble's Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men's Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women's) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Tamra Judge rocked the BravoVerse last week when she declared she was “on the spectrum”.  We break down Tamra's statement, analyze the validity of it, weigh in on the public outrage and discuss the claims that it was for sympathy, to excuse over a decade of RHOC bad behavior and / or for a story line next season, RHOC 19. Finally, we discuss the comments thereafter from Vicki, Gretchen, Kelly Dodd and Heather McDonald. In other RHOC news, Jim Bellino and Elizabeth Vargas are dating, then not dating a la #fake news, Gretchen discusses what really went down in the Morocco bathroom between Brandi and Caroline and Jennifer Pedranti gets angrier than F at Tamra earning her place for RHOC 19. Finally, Andy Cohen weighs in again on Jennifer Aydin's claims, on the future of RHONJ and when we can realistically expect casting announcement for Season 15. Part II starts now!! @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston's Award Winning Hair Care) OAK ESSENTIALS - oakessentials.com (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Your First Order of Clean, Spa Quality Skincare Essentials) RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble's Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men's Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women's) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.
