Hey, Lewis here. Every week on Keep It, I bring you the best takes pop culture has to offer.

And today, we're doing it with a little Bravo-flavored twist. The Keep It Team is off, but in our place, we're handing you the queen of Make It Nice herself, Dorinda Medley.

In this episode of Bravo, a new series from Love It or Leave It, Derinda looks back at the Wild West era of Bravo before Housewives had glam squads, social media strategies,

or the looming threat of consequences. She talks about how reality TV pushed her to become the

star of her own life, how years as an Upper East Side political spouse prepped her for high-heeled combat,

and why in both politics and Bravo the worst thing you can be is boring. She and John Lovett even

bond over getting

booted first from their respective competition shows, though Derinda will be the first to tell you

her trader's exit was criminally undeserved. It's sharp, hilarious, and peak Bravo anthropology. Check out

all the episodes of Bravo America on the Love It or Leave It feed and on YouTube. And make sure to

subscribe so you don't miss a beat.
