| 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. |
| 0:32.7 | Hi, everyone. I hope you had a wonderful week. I am so excited for my guest today because she shared |
| 0:42.7 | some thoughts and feelings that she had about the Vanderpump reunion that I hadn't heard before. |
| 0:50.6 | And so it's really interesting for me when I hear about someone whose opinion is formed based on their life experience. |
| 0:58.9 | And in this case, she's talking specifically about Sheena and Sheena dealing with OCD. |
| 1:05.1 | So I think you guys are really, really going to enjoy it. |
| 1:10.0 | But before we get into that, I want to touch on both of the |
| 1:14.5 | summerhouses. So let's start first with summer house Martha's Vineyard. So unfortunately, |
| 1:21.0 | it has been put on pause, which I think I saw coming. It didn't feel like a lot of people had |

| 1:34.5 | That being said, I really think it could have developed into something better if they did a |
| 1:38.9 | little bit of a reshifting similar to what Summerhouse did in season three. So I don't know, I'm, |
| 1:46.4 | I'm disappointed. I really enjoyed the reunion, but it did make me very confused. So in particular, |
| 1:55.3 | I felt like no one was really able to articulate why they were upset with Jasmine. They just seemed to be closer friends |
| 2:02.8 | with Jordan and sort of taking her side. And Preston in particular, I don't think I realize that |
| 2:09.3 | Preston stood up in Jasmine and Silas's wedding. So for him to have essentially no relationship |
| 2:16.0 | with Jasmine and Silas following being in their |
| 2:18.5 | wedding, I would think that something major had to have happened. And I want to know what that is. |
| 2:24.7 | And I feel like some of them don't want to hurt her feelings. Maybe it all has to do with |
| 2:29.0 | Silas and nothing to do with Jasmine. But who knows? We also found out that Nick and Tasia broke up, which I guess |
