Summary
This week Mandy is joined by Veronica Leventhal to discuss what is arguably one of the best RHOBH episodes of all time! Before getting into Beverly Hills, the ladies chat about the Salt Lake City trailer and question whether Bravo has any ethical obligations surrounding whether to have people who’ve potentially committed crimes on their shows. Mandy and Veronica also chat this week’s Potomac and wonder whether Gizelle can get away with another season of grilling others while avoiding discussions of her personal life. Plus, is it finally time to say goodbye to Ramona?

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Is This Real Life, a Bravo podcast that relates our favorite shows to our own lives in the world around us. |
| 0:18.4 | I'm your host, Mandy Sleutzer. Let's get to it. |
| 0:34.1 | Hi, real lifers. I hope you're all doing well and staying safe. I am back from vacation. I had such a nice time in New York City. |
| 0:41.1 | I got to visit with my brother and sister-in-law and some friends. And I got to see Tom Hamlet. |
| 0:47.4 | And that was so fun to meet in person. And then me and a few friends went out to the Hamptons and it was just so gorgeous, absolutely perfect weather. |
| 0:57.9 | Of course, now it's being hit by a hurricane. |
| 1:01.5 | And so I hope everyone who's on Long Island and in New England is staying safe and evacuating if needed. |
| 1:10.8 | So as I was getting ready to record this, I saw a rumor that |
| 1:16.8 | had been spreading on social media about Robert Cosby Sr. It's Mary Cosby's step-grandfather |

| 1:47.1 | typed it into Google, it made it look as if it was true. But Bill Cosby is 84. Robert Cosby Sr. |
| 1:55.9 | is 67. While it is theoretical that they could be siblings, that age difference is enough to kind |
| 2:03.9 | of tip me off to thinking that they aren't. And then they're not born in the same place. |
| 2:09.1 | They don't have the same parents. All of that stuff. All I'm saying is two plus two equals four. |
| 2:15.7 | And I'm not even that good at math. Sorry, it's just my favorite line from |
| 2:21.4 | this week's Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Because, you know, sometimes when we're watching |
| 2:26.8 | these shows, we're all asking the same questions and saying, is what I'm seeing real? Is it true? |
| 2:37.4 | Are my eyes deceiving me? And it's great to have Sutton and Garcel be like, no, they are not deceiving you. We see the same thing and we're going to ask the |
| 2:43.7 | questions. And speaking of asking questions, I actually think it's really smart that Sutton reached out to an attorney and was like, |
