    Love this pod
    I didn’t realize the podcaster was Canadian. I love that. I wish I were Canadian. Anyway great podcast and love your angles and deep dives.

    nice addition to Bravo podcast rotation
    This podcast has been a nice add to my Bravo podcast must-listens (Everything Iconic & Watch What Crappens). I really enjoyed the deep dives on the Richards sisters and Lindsay Hubbard. And it’s a great way to keep up to date with the weekly Bravo gossip. My only criticism is that the host tends to say ‘okay’ or ‘mkay’ as a filler towards the end of sentences. That being said, I tend to agree with all the hosts viewpoints and takes so I’m always cheering her on!

    The Richard Sisters Series
    Fascinating and thoughtful! I would listen to 100 episodes about them if you put it out. Keep it coming!

    Great podcast!!
    Great podcast!!
  • Riverbottom nightmare band
    i want to like it more
    BUT there is a lot of vitriol in her commentary about these bravo celebs, esp VPR. it sounds personal, and i’d rather keep it lighter when poking fun on people we’ve never met.

    Outstanding pod
    Direct, balanced, and thorough; this has become one of my top Bravo pods (and I listen to a lot of Bravo pods!). Not afraid to go against the grain but has thoughtful rationale and gives me a different perspective. Love!
  • Bored of the dramz
    Annoying opinions
    Been listening only for more Bravo content. She is obvi super jealous of a lot of these people she talks about…..
  • SunnyMarieP
    Love!
    Just found this podcast and I am already in love! Listened to the last four and I just appreciate your viewpoint and really like your tangents! So glad I found it.

    Developing into a really good show!
    Show is still relatively new and she is Really getting her sealegs - gets better every week and becoming a must listen.
  • LeiAka
    Really interesting!
    This is such a good podcast. I really enjoy her perspective and that while hones, it is not super negative. Keel up the good work! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
  • Pinozoni
    Absolutely the best Bravo podcast
    She has a great understanding of human nature and what is really driving the behaviors. And is so wonderful at characterizing the scenes. I love the long podcasts.
  • tamham
    Fun and interesting
    I love her point of view, even when I don’t agree. Her in depth episodes are always juicy and enjoyable. Give her a listen! Feels like chatting with a fellow bravo lover
  • Season1camille
    Great
    Love it. One pet peeve is saying “dinyell” instead of Danielle. But ok. Thank you !
  • busting par
    You lack insight
    Completely.
  • Belmont5565
    A must listen
    She tells it like it is, not afraid like other podcasters.
  • DoxieMama28

    Enjoy your recaps!
  • mhm1512
    Great updates
    Always looking for concise updates with a sense of humor!!
  • danithelistener12345
    Rants
    A few good tidbits of real tea, but mostly ranting, taking inventory of characters”logic” but then loses the logic line in her explanations, which make the explanations confusing. Its really just a lot of talking trash about her favorites and being mean about the rest. Leave the meanness to the housewives.
  • Brianna1123
    THANK YOU…
    … for finally telling it how it is! Namely WHY Ariana stayed at the house. And WHY it didn’t make sense for her to “just leave” like Lauren from Utah kept telling her to do. I listen to these sound bits so frustrated!! I love your insights and sound mind with this whole thing. My goodness why don’t people understand?!
  • Lolo13419
    BEST Bravo podcast
    There’s no wildness, impressions, fake enthusiasm, fake laughing, no ADS, no sucking up to advertisers about how she couldn’t live another day without such and such product like the BEST ANT SPRAY IN A CAN!!! There is no junk on this podcast. I don’t even watch the shows because I like listening to this so much better! She gives all the details and gives her thoughts and opinions. She’s honest and genuine. Most podcasts are so high and low, loud and quiet, phoney and fake. This one is the best of all of them!!!
  • Crristmaz
    The Meme Queen’s Podcast
    Bravo and Botox is my go-to for everything Bravo. She is actually the only account I follow on instagram that’s Bravo-related, because I don’t need another one between her twitter roundups and stories. Naturally, her podcast is the same. I love the weekly news roundups and the deep dives she does. I literally don’t need any other Bravo stuff because she is just that good and thorough. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone who loves Bravo. And I especially recommend it to anyone who is trying to regulate their social media usage and screen time - she will keep you up to date, and off your phone.
  • JessicaWheezy
    Best Bravo pod!
    There are so many to choose from (I have tried almost all), and B&B is the best at what she does! What she does - catches me up on /reiterates the biggest Bravo news, gives thoughtful, (mostly) succinct takes on those issues, and also did the best deep dive episodes on the Hilton women. Are you looking for a new Canadian Bravo BFF you can trust to do her homework?
  • Natty P Yeniffer
    Superb
    I appreciate and enjoy the thoughtful research and viewpoints presented in this podcast. The deep dives and weekly updates are both must listens.
  • buzz•buzz
    Great
    This is a great pod for all things Bravo.
  • Mazzievallone
    Like gossiping with a friend!
    Love hearing all the Bravo updates for the week! Concise thoughts and valid points (to me at least lol). The Richards sister deep dive is fantastic!! Huge fan.
  • April_nahmton
    Love!
    Where I go to for all my bravo news!

    The Best Bravo Deep Dives!
    This show is absolutely fantastic. The research, the takes, the deep dives, everything is done with care and (tough) love for everything Bravo!
  • Dedramc
    Love this show!
    You are like an investigative reporter! I’m a Patreon subscriber too, worth the $$$!

    Bringing something different for a bravo podcast
    I have been listening since the beginning and I have always loved bravo and Botox’s deep dives. She really takes her time to do hours and hours of research and it shows. A great place to start is her episode on Rachel Leviss. She is new to podcasting so it’s enjoyable for me to see someone who has never done it before grow and become a little bit better each week. I love watching people evolve vs expecting perfection right away as I think it gives us all hope that we could one day be brave enough to try something new. I don’t know what all this drama is about regarding her talking a bunch of smack about non-patreon users haha but I wasn’t offended by what she said on the regular podcast. Remember how intense people can be on social media, so I’m sure she receives tons of annoying messages of demanding people being like can you drop this episode already. Can you do this and that and B&B just explained that if you wanted to ask/demand for special requests she would love to do so if you pay for that privilege. Remember she’s a mom who works full time which makes her so relatable and like you and me. She is doing this on her own at this point and I think the podcast will continue to expand so keep an eye on it and get in on it from the beginning!

    PLEASE STOP THE NARRATIVE!
    Reasonably Shady, Robyn and Giselle’s podcast does not talk about what happens on RHWOP! I’ve been a listener for two years. They talk about their lives, their children and give their silly views of pop-culture. I’ve never heard them talk about Candice! Please get your facts straight. You clearly have never listened. Giselle talked about Candice on someone else’s podcast!
  • Silverlining121
    Serious Sleuthing on Bavolebrities
    One of my favorites! The deep dives are amazing. I listen to both this podcast and Patreon and haven’t heard her talk negatively about non Patreon subscribers. Thank you for great content!
  • DSpice33
    Uncomfortable rant about Non-patreons
    Loved your perspective and analysis on bravo shows. Thought it was one of the best podcasts I started following from IG. Felt so uneasy after listening to recent episode bashing non-patreons and about people putting requests to you about what they want to hear. It came off so rude and condescending. We get it, you only value peoples opinions who are paying - just was super uncomfortable to practically hear you say that.
  • edro14
    i follow on IG
    i love this podcast because it feels like i get to dish things out with my bravo obsessed bestie! on top of that, she has her on views, on popular main “characters” and i usually agree with, so it truly just makes it better.
  • Sigi_Maye
    Disappointed in your ethics
    I’ve always enjoyed this podcast, however, yesterday I was listening to your most recent episode. Little did I know I somehow had access to a Patreon episode. You spent several minutes talking crap about non-Patreon members!!! Not just a little crap, A LOT of crap. I found it disheartening and disappointing. As a single mom I don’t spend extra money on Patreon; now I’m glad I don’t. Not only did this open my eyes to what is discussed behind a Patreon wall but it opened my eyes on how you feel about your non-paying customers (you know, the ones you push your ads towards, oh, wait, I guess we DO get you paid!). Shove off, girl.
  • CRStew88
    Best Real housewives Pod I’ve heard
    This is the best one I’ve heard. Love this
  • Korin Reviews
    I dunno
    Great news source. Love the premise. Definitely a welcome addition to reality coverage. But if she says "I dunno...(long pause)" one more time. Isn't this show about you knowing? Stand up girl! What I really mean is I would love her to work on her public speaking if she wants people to listen to her talk, without a guest, for an hour.
  • eboh13
    I’m in the know for everything Bravo
    I love the weekly news episodes! Also loved your episode with Emily Hanks, the two of you have great pod chemistry.
  • Traverse6$

  • ILUBCC
    Best podcast
    I look forward to your episodes every week!

    Kathy Hilton
    When recapping about big Cathy’s childhood, you should really consider the time that she was growing up. It was a very rebellious time. Just a thought regarding Cathy’s parents and big Cathy’s upbringing.

    No podcast!
    Annoying introduction followed by dead air. Is this a joke? No thank you!
  • darcy 77
    Too bias and Petty and mean.
