What I've dedicated my life to is revenge.

A brand new drama based on the best-selling novel.

They think they're better than us?

Who do you think you are?

I'm going to prove to them that they're wrong.

She's punishing me.

You destroyed my family.

I will not rest until I've destroyed yours.

The A woman of substance on Channel 4 starts tonight at 9. 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 had a good week. You know that Eminem song, where it starts out with,

It feels so good to be back. That's how I feel right now. I'm just, I'm very happy to be back on the podcast.

I am so happy my dad is doing well health-wise, and just thank you from the

bottom of my heart to all of you who prayed and sent positive energy his way, because, man,

is it an absolute miracle that the surgery went as well as it did? So I'm about to head to Naples to visit my dad again. I know I just saw him. But to help out, especially because my stepmom, Joyce, has been doing everything. And my dad's still a little weary of being alone. And so she's not like leaving the

house as much. And I wanted to be able to get her nails done and, you know, whatever she wants to do,

Pilates, like in her free time. So I'm going to be there. I'm going to cook a lot. And I don't know,

just sit around and talk and just be very, very grateful.

Well, I'm very grateful for all the things that have been going on on Bravo. I am so grateful

that Southern Hospitality is back. I forgot how good of a show it is and how just truly messy

all of the players are.
