Dan shares his initial thoughts on Summer House before diving back into RHOC and sharing their thoughts on Noella, Heather, and the Cabo trip.

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.
0:18.5	I'm your host, Mandy Slutsker. Let's get to it.
0:31.8	Hi, everyone. I hope you're doing well. This is going to be a really interesting and rather deep episode of
0:42.0	Is This Real Life? My guest, Dan Udi, is absolutely fantastic and we have a really interesting
0:50.2	conversation about kind of what we think might be going on in the psyche and in the minds of

2:11.0	what else is going on, mixing with Moni, Bravo while Black. There's so many to choose from. I will share some of my thoughts,
2:20.7	just because this is my podcast and invite you all to let me know what you think. But I guess my
2:28.4	first inclination is that when I'm on social media and I see people's reaction to what Jenny has posted,
2:37.9	a lot of it is, you know, anger, obviously, right?
2:42.7	And calling for her to be fired and Bravo needs to speak out immediately and, you know, a lot of demands.
