#87 RHOBH PART 1: S14E13 - Champagne B*tches & Caviar Means

Sutton brings her pocketbook to a principles fight and comes out looking real gross. But not to be out-grossed, Kyle whines to her Therapist/Life Coach about Mauricio living his best life while poor Kyle is left behind to… oh wait, Kyle did it first! She’s fine! Nothing is the matter! She just wants her Morgan, and to eat her Mauricio, too! Meanwhile, Jennifer Tilly rules, Faye Resnick drools, and Erika thinks the valley is cool. Time to don a breezy caftan, heap on heavy jewelry, pile some cavi...

#86 RHOBH: S14E12 - Red, White, and Booze

ON RHOBH, Kyle complains some more, Kathy is crazy as ever, Dorit is unraveling before our eyes, Sutton is defensive about the “myth” of her problem drinking, Garcelle stumbles into the party and through her defense of Sutton, Erika obsesses about her annual hot dog, and Boz is a most welcome voice of reason in this deranged “sisterhood.” Time to put gold flakes in your lemonade, leave your dead orchid to rot another day, and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

#85 RHOBH: S14E11 - Crab Cakes and MUSTARRRRDDDDDDDD!

TW - We discuss suicide as it pertains to this week's episode of RHOBH. Sutton became undeniably sympathetic in this episode of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Kettle One & Ocean Spray might have a hold on anyone who’d been through what she’s been through! In Augusta, Garcelle shows up as the friend we all would want, while Kyle demonstrates, yet again, she is the friend we all could do without. Meanwhile, Dorit makes excuses for PK, Boz makes concessions for Keeley, and Ramona & M...

#84 RHOBH: S14E10 - A-Reba! A-Reba!

On RHOBH, Sutton’s mom, Reba, was as unimpressed by a Saks scarf as she is by her own daughter. Dorit received a 7-page declaration of war. But it was Kyle who wore stupid camo cosplay to handle a firearm and then cry in her ex’s (tattooed!) arms. Time to put on your PJs, quietly curse PK, say a prayer for divorcées, and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose! AOC telling us what's up and what to do. WATCH IT! We're on Bluesky!

#83 RHOBH: PART TWO S14E9 - Filet of the Minion

While Kyle proclaims herself to be a butter-less baked potato having a menty-b, most of her RHOBH castmates would characterize her as more of a lying liar who lies, and also a ridiculous hypocrite! And give the editors their flowers for the most satisfying exposé of a liar/victim/martyr we could ever have asked for! Time to get yourself an extra hot oat milk vanilla latte and a couple pieces of toast from a $700 D&G toaster, and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

#83 RHOBH: PART ONE S14E9 - Filet of the Minion

And give the editors their flowers for the most satisfying exposé of a liar/victim/martyr we could ever have asked for!

#82 RHOBH: S14E8 - The Tao of Dorit

The Sisterhood Serenity Soirée on RHOBH brought us Manly Handz, “mehmes” (Tilly for “memes”), Dorit’s newfound wisdom, and Kyle’s pathological tantrum. Boz continues to drop perfectly timed “oop!”s, and Erika may be decorating her house, but she has made a home up Kyle’s ass. Time to get cozy in a belted dress with a plunging neckline and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

#81 RHOBH: S14E7 - Boz Knows

This episode of RHOBH proved that Kyle and Liar are synonyms. It also proved that Boz is 100% the Goddess her name proclaims her to be! Chuck E. Cheese hosted a divorcée/gay panic pizza party, and Martyn Lawrence Bullard blew our minds with his expert observation that real plants are better than fake plants?! Icon. Time to pour yourself a pitcher of spiked iced tea with lemon circles (not wedges! #TeamAvi) and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

#80 RHOBH: S14E6 – Meme Girls-Girl

We dedicate this episode to our beloved Los Angeles. Forever and ever. Kyle was on screen for all of 15 minutes in this week’s RHOBH and she shat the bed in every single one of them. Dorit is done with her and so are we. Sutton needs to tell the Board of the American Ballet Theatre to be on the lookout for Phoenix Kemsley! And Boz brings us Keely on the beach, and delivers us from Sutton’s bullsh*t in the Viper Room. Time to put down the copy of “Star Style” that Martyn Lawrence Bullard handed y...

#79 RHOBH: S14E5 - PART 2! Homemade Water into Whine

Kyle’s Denim & Diamonds party was the centerpiece of RHOBH, and Camille was the cheap party favor nobody wants. Dorit “made” water, Dr. Jenn made progress with Erika, and Sutton made an absolute ass of herself. Uh oh, Cher’s clock is ringing! Time to put on 4,500 dollars of doll clothes and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose! Bravo Real Housewives Subreddit! LISA BARLOW DRAMAAAAA! PART 1 LISA BARLOW DRAMAAAA!!!

#78 RHOBH: S14E4 - Kyle And Punishment

The Dorit Dam has burst and a tsunami of righteous resentments flood this episode of RHOBH. Meanwhile, Kyle shamelessly carries on a weird text relationship with PK, Garcelle tries to box out Dorit from Boz, and Sutton pours herself a bottomless Solo Cup of booze. But none of the drama can burst Kathy Hilton and Jennifer Tilly’s billionaire bubbles. Fighting is just entertainment for aristocrats! Also in this episode, Ramona & Margee deliver odes to their old therapists and discuss the quagm...

#77 RHOBH: S14E3 - Dorit Akimbo!

RHOBH brought us pleated bucket hats, nesting purses, and a full Restoration Hardware showroom on the beach. Kyle’s lost now that Mau can buy his own sheets and doesn’t need her to count his towels, and everyone thinks she’s being a bit much with her Dorit drama. And while Dorit may have face-planted twice in the sand, she shut up Kyle’s face one and for all at dinner. Time to take “the best seat in the house” at a heavily trafficked four-way stop in Oceanside, and tune into this week’s A Therap...

#76 RHOBH: S14E2 – New PK, Same BS

SPOILER ALERT: We discuss the season finale of The Great British Bakeoff at 1:36 mark, so fast forward a minute and 22 seconds if you don't want to know the winner :) With Kyle’s martyrdom being ever-reliable and PK’s wreckage being representative of alcoholic dads everywhere, this episode of RHOBH was essentially an hour-long invitation to an Al-Anon meeting! Boz’s confidence and home décor are both enviable things of beauty. Erika and Sutton offer rare moments of clarity and reason. And Dorit ...

#75 RHOC: S18E20 - Johnny Hangry and Oh So Thirsty

The final installment of the RHOC reunion was the Alexis installment and she delivered a whole lot of stupid. She and Johnny J may have met at The Quiet Woman, but this lady just made all kinds of noise and no sense. Tamra and Shannon made up, with Andy all-in as Tamra’s hype man throughout. And Emily delivered the best trashcan analogy of the millennium. Like John Janssen lending money to Shannon, this podcast is here for you in your “times of need,” so pull a Tamra and bail on your therapy app...

#74 RHOBH: S14E1 - Goodbye, Kyle

It's the premiere of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and like Stefon's criteria for a fun night out, this episode had everything: billionaires, cigarettes, lip masks, and monkey heads in a box! Kyle failed boundary-setting class; Dorit found her (still-long-winded) voice; Erika got lost on her way to Z Gallerie; Sutton showed no Merce-y to her party planners; Garcelle mogul-ed in shell toes; and we met Boz! So get your assistant to hold your smoothie to your lips and sip on this week's A Thera...

#73 RHOC: S18E19 - Frenemies, a Friend-Of, and AN “Historical Friend”

It’s the RHOC Reunion Part 2, and Jesus Jugs has entered the chat! But not before everyone tries to sell Katie on some pretend distinction between “mean girl behavior” and “gossip.” Tamra’s going to start therapy, Heather makes a “funny ‘cause it's true” joke about not eating solids, and Emily continues to behave like she’s in some contentious courtroom drama. Time to put on a $2,000 dress and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

Nov 18, 20241 hr 27 minEp. 74

#72 RHOC: S18E18 - The Interrogation of Katie Ginella

In the first installment of the RHOC reunion, some a-holes (Tamra, Emily, & Heather) kept trying to hand Katie her a**, but only succeeded in looking like even bigger buttholes themselves. Jen proved that Ryan is a real good wiseguy, keeping his dame in the dark so she can’t catch heat from the Feds. Emily proved that her mommy issues remain desperately unresolved. And apparently the whole reunion was brought to us by ColonMax? Time to think small & fond & local, and tune into this w...

#71 RHOC: S18E17 PART 2 - Our First Guest-pisode with BETH CROSBY!

As RHOC closes out its season, A Therapeutic Dose enters a new era with our inaugural Guest-pisode featuring friend, Momfluencer, and fellow therapy/reality-tv head, BETH CROSBY (@garbagemom)! We shed some light on why the OC women would be a hard hang for us (unclear bits!) and how the Matt/Shannon exchange crystalized the distinction between a fun drunk (Emily) and an un-fun drunk (Shannon/our dads). Time to throw on your Gossip Pig ball cap and a Luxury Basic sweatshirt, and tune in to this w...

#70 RHOC: S18E16 - Jolly Old Enema

Lots of BMs in the UK on this episode of RHOC. In a classic Goldilocks storyline, Emily had too much movement, Shannon didn’t have enough, and Katie’s were juuuust right (thanks to some GI pills – better travelling through chemistry!). Meanwhile, Tamra and Heather – human BMs – were obsessed with trying to turn old gossip into new storylines. So get yourself some bread, delicately spread just a dab of onion butter on it, then rip it like a savage (because that’s etiquette and that makes sense?!)...

#69 RHOC: S8E15 - London B*tches Falling Down

On this episode of RHOC, all it took was a trip across the pond to fully expose Heather and Tamra for the hideous trolls they are! Shannon delivered all kinds of receipts, Gina served Heather a heaping pile of shut-the-hell-up, and Jen emerged as a whole hero. Time to have a classic See’s Candy (not that hoity-toity crap the Queen ate) and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

#68 RHOC: S18E14 – Dense Breasts and a Dumb Boat

As it applies both to American Mammograms and English Tea, this episode of RHOC posed the question, “One lump or two?” Heather encouraged the women to tend to their breast health, then punished them for not reading her mind. Bucket hats and concierge harassment were the hallmarks of the housewives overseas. And Shannon is showing real signs of growth! While still leaning on Mr. Belvedere quite a bit. But to quote Gina’s producer, “Ohmygod let’s move on.” Time to do a quick Diet Dr. Pepper mouth ...

#67 RHOC: S18E13 - Don’t Let the FRONT DOOR Hit You Where the Good Lord Split You!

Alexis is “done” and that’s fine by us. Shannon showed off some boundaries for her birthday! And Tamra is dee-sgust-eeeng. RHOC also brought us bad British accents, Bandon being the cutest, and Heather being baffled by basic humanity. Time to set down your 700-pound olive branch arrangement and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

Oct 08, 20241 hr 16 minEp. 66

#66 RHOC: S18E12 - Tamra's Bank of Bad Karma

At a RHOC couples’ dinner party, Tamra got sloshed and made messes everywhere, with everyone. From last week’s Butthole Viewing to this week’s Butt-Dial Broadcasting, she’s managed to run the full gamut of being a gross person. Meanwhile, Heather admonished Terry in a bathroom for admonishing her on camera, Shannon & Archie munched on carrots in bed, and Gina evidently got paid per “meatbwall” mention. Time to hitch a trailer and haul your Harley to Big Bear as you listen to this week’s A Th...

#65 RHOC: S18E11 - Susan B. Anthony Jeans

In Orange County, Emily poor-shamed Jen, Heather fat-shamed Emily, and Tamra peed on the concrete. We also got a look at kids recovering from divorce and adults evading personal responsibility. RHOC is fully back on brand! So time to “re-collect” yourself, light your peach-jasmine candle, and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

Sep 23, 20241 hr 9 minEp. 64

#63 RHOC S18E9: A Therapeutic “Dosage”

In Sonoma County, Shannon broke down, Heather & Alexis broken-clock’d, and Ramona almost got “Get Out”-ed! This episode of RHOC had private jets, spider coffee, Dubr-offspring inspired champagne, taco perfume, Johnny J vapors, and more. Time to unwrap a sweater from 10,000 sheets of tissue paper, take an Uber to a mall bar for a clandestine cocktail, and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

#62 RHOC S18E8 – Once a Tamra, Always a Tamra

If you’re looking for 6 high-quality minutes of Shane Simpson, this was the episode for you! If you’re looking for any “it” factor, Teddi brought none. While Teddi sank 25% of the episode doing horse-girl cosplay, the other 75% was rich with family traumas - old and new - giving Ramona & Margee 100% of their favorite things to talk about! Time to blow-hum into your breathalyzer and tune in for this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

Sep 04, 20241 hr 39 minEp. 61

RHOC S18E7: Tamra Judge-Not-Lest-Ye-Be-Judged

A return to form for our OC housewives (except Tamra) this week! Everyone (but Tamra) had moments of humanity that made them all (not Tamra) briefly, fleetingly relatable. Ramona and Margee also touch on the DNC (no notes!), Chimp Crazy (crazy!), Christmas-y drag queens, and death. This episode has it ALL! “So satisfying.” Time to grab your pineapple – but leave your dirty plate – and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!
