Summary
"Everything Everywhere All at Once." The name of an Academy Award-winning film, and an apt descriptor for the wild, complicated, fascinating reunion finale to this season of Salt Lake. Sarah deep dives it all: the breaking news that Monica is "on pause" from the show, her missed opportunity/strategy to open up about Reality Von Tease as a Housewife and not troll account, Heather's explanation for her eye (and the communal experience of experiencing trauma at the hands of Jen Shah), inconsistencies around grace for Monica/Heather's external reactions to Jen's behavior (and their reactions around accountability/shame), and what the future of SLC and Housewives holds, on social and IRL. This episode's theme song should be "Something to Talk About" - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 499.986765!

| 0:00.0 | And the Oh, You guys, it's Andy Scrull's it's episode 4 99.9.9.86765 and oh my god we just experienced it we finally saw it we finally saw the |
| 0:48.6 | explanation both sort of for Monica and certainly sort of for Heather and the eye and I |
| 0:57.6 | and I honestly feel like a little overwhelmed so I'm so thankful that I've had the opportunity to do these like |
| 1:07.3 | triage style Salt Lake City Epps literally right after watching the episode. |
| 1:13.2 | I just watched it like one and three quarter times |
| 1:16.2 | as well as watch what happens, which sidebar. |
| 1:19.7 | Listen, not every watch what happens is, |
| 1:21.2 | is, you know, historic, shall we say? |
| 1:23.7 | This one is an absolute, I would say it's a must watch. |
| 1:27.3 | I thought Joel Kimboster did an incredible job |
| 1:30.6 | of communicating his thoughts and feels about Salt Lake all things Monica and Potomac and other franchises in a way that I don't know at some points that Andy loved because Joel was criticizing a show and not a person, but it was fantastic. |
| 1:47.6 | So I would highly recommend a watch if you are able. But today was a little wild. I recorded a Patreon episode talking about |
| 1:58.7 | many of the satchels that I've received in advance of watching part 3 with a bunch of Your |
| 2:04.4 | Satrils of Gold about Salt Lake and this Hollywood |
| 2:07.2 | reporter interview that had come out this week |
| 2:10.4 | with a conversation between a network head, a production head, |
| 2:17.0 | and the showrunner from Shedd, from Bravo, |
| 2:22.0 | or rather from NBC Universal Shedd and then the showrunner from Salt Lake where they talk |
| 2:28.0 | about the fact that they definitely didn't know about any of this doing dealing with the account and that they were hopeful that, you know, we would figure out a way for Monica to move forward and hour, an hour, actually no less than that. I think it came out while I was recording that |
| 2:46.2 | Monica people dropped the news that Monica would not be returning. And this is also PS a day that began with LA Times publishing an extensive |
| 2:58.2 | piece about how Monica has created incredible television. |
| 3:02.3 | So LA Times is like, keep her Bravo. |
