Welcome to Is This Real Life, a Bravo podcast that relates our favorite shows to our own lives in the world around us.

I'm your host, Mandy Sleutzer. Let's get to it.

Hi, everyone. I hope you're having a wonderful week. Well, this week we are back with Eminem Hour with me and Melissa Reich from your Bush therapist. We've got this episode and then she has an episode coming out in a couple of days. So definitely check that out. On our episode, we talk a little bit of the Real Housewives of Atlanta and how that new season is going and then get really into the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

So much happening with Garsell quitting the show and that finale was insane and confusing.

And we just spend a lot of time unpacking that. And at the end, I go on a

very, very crazy rant about Yolanda Hadid. So if you have strong feelings about her that are not

aligned with mine, you might want to turn the podcast off a little bit early. Just a warning for everyone. We talk a little bit about chronic Lyme and some of the

misconceptions with it and, yeah, how I just didn't appreciate her as much her final season on the

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. On Melissa's podcast, when we have our own Eminem hour, we end up diving very, very deep into

Summer House. There is just so much happening right now in Summer House and everything happening

with Southern Charm and, you know, Craig and Page breaking up and that being covered on Southern

Charm and then watching Summer House knowing that we're

getting towards a breakup. It's the timeline's a little bit confusing to me. I realize that Southern

Charm taped before Summer House, but it's really making me question Craig because so many of the

signs were there, he just refused to see them. And, you know, that's okay.

I think a lot of us have been in that position where we just aren't accepting reality and

we're not really listening to what our partner is telling us because we so deeply believe

something different. And yeah, I'm going to spend a lot more time diving into Southern Charm on next week's

podcast once we get part two of the reunion. So we'll have part one and part two to discuss.

Looking forward to that. As always, if you enjoy the podcast, go ahead, give it a five-star

rating and leave a kind review. And if you have something you want to

share with me, feel free to reach out at Mandy Sleutsker on Instagram. I am with my family this
