Friend Of

Today's episode starts cozy and festive and somehow ends with broken jaws, haunted houses, and deep thoughts about strength, ambition, and who we become when life shifts. We get into Jake Paul’s Netflix boxing moment and why, love him or hate him, the guy knows exactly what he’s doing. Then it’s over to The Kardashians, where philanthropy meetings, third-eye conversations, and bar-exam stress spark bigger conversations about responsibility, trust, and what actually matters. There’s empathy, side-eye, and a lot of “wait… what?”Plus: Taylor Swift’s mom playing matchmaker, Ed Sheeran’s strength era, the Beckham family tension everyone’s whispering about, Real Housewives dating parties that actually work, manifestation versus real financial advice, ghost stories we absolutely didn’t need, and the eternal question of whether you should ever meet your idols.Chapters00:00 Holiday chaos & cozy beginnings07:30 Strength, fitness & body image thoughts16:45 Jake Paul’s Netflix fight & marketing genius29:00 Kardashians philanthropy & third-eye moments44:00 RHOBH dating night & real vulnerability59:30 Icons, icks & holiday sign-offConnect With Us:Instagram: @friendofpodcastTikTok: @friendofpodcastFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

We're in New York City with Carl Radke to talk Summer House Season 10 - including what it was like watching the trailer live with his cast and seeing moments he didn’t even know happened - and all things New York. He opens up about where things stand with Kyle, how filming really works, and why watching yourself back can feel like reviewing game tape.We also dive into Soft Bar, Carl’s non-alc café and bar in New York, the intention behind creating a space that isn’t preachy, and what it’s been like launching a brick-and-mortar business while still living very publicly on Bravo.Plus, Carl gets candid about writing Cake Eater: revisiting his childhood and family story, recording the audiobook, and why sharing his experience was never about having it all figured out — just about being honest.Chapters00:00:17 New York first-timer, Soho recs00:01:09 Broadway Bros, Wicked, Art, and Comedy Cellar00:03:48 Pizza talk, sourdough obsession, local bars00:05:55 BravoCon, fan encounters, being “newbies” support00:08:15 Reality TV rules, what you avoid vs what they want00:11:18 Watching back, screeners, reunion accountability00:15:20 Trailer reactions, Kyle tension tease, season vibe00:19:42 Sobriety in public, projection, “sober isn’t perfect”00:27:47 Wellness era, running, Calm, AA, community outside alcohol00:31:40 Soft Bar concept, hours, events, podcast studio plans00:38:26 Writing Cake Eater, childhood + family story, audio book emotions00:48:09 Pride, gratitude, meeting fans, “I used to pray for this”00:54:45 Book tour + Canada stops, five years sober milestoneConnect With Us:Instagram: @friendofpodcastTikTok: @friendofpodcastFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

Today's episode starts in full sick-parent survival mode and somehow spirals into one of the most layered Bravo conversations we’ve had in a while. From Vanderpump reboot fatigue and why casting will always matter more than concepts, to Traitors season hype and the shows we watch purely for the people, the pop culture range is doing a lot here.Then it’s Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, and yes, everything is on the table. Meredith’s rough season, Mother’s Day emotions, broken coffee machines, donkey excursions, and Brittany casually revealing she’s kept a lifelong document of every person she’s ever kissed. Plus, the now-infamous “high body count” phrase turns into an actual trademark debate, and it’s somehow both ridiculous and iconic.Plus: Nene Leakes possibly returning to Bravo, Donna Kelce entering the reality TV universe, Chelsea from Selling Sunset reframing weight gain in a way that actually feels healthy, skinny culture creeping back into the discourse, Southern Charm’s never-ending Craig–Austen tension, pool parties, Speedos, performance anxiety, sobriety conversations, and why hating on fun is, in fact, silly.Timestamps:04:57 Vanderpump reboot fatigue & expectations10:17 Nene Leakes rumours & Traitors casting hype13:24 What we watch for the cast, not the concept15:07 Brittany’s ex-husband news16:58 Heather Gay casting rumours18:55 Chelsea, skinny culture & body conversations27:39 RHOSLC recap begins33:16 Brittany’s kiss-count document35:58 High Body Count trademark debate39:50 Southern Charm recap59:00 Icons & IcksConnect With Us:Instagram: @friendofpodcastTikTok: @friendofpodcastFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

Ariana and Renee are recording straight from a New York hotel bed after the most unhinged Christmas bar, a surprise Golden Bachelor recap delivered by two Boston icons, and a Gary V day that included VaynerMedia, Fly Fish and the best chicken nuggets on earth. They break down Bronwyn and Todd’s no-prenup split, Taylor Swift’s ERAS documentary “bonus day” math, Travis Kelce retirement chatter, Carl’s NYC interview trip, and the Summer House cast-photo Photoshop situation everyone’s dragging online. Then it’s Kardashians (Kim’s party parenting moment, Kourtney’s scheduling saga, Khloé’s dating dread) and RHOBH drama from Dorit and PK’s financial standoff to Kyle’s separation and the Morgan Wade whispers.

Jen Shah is officially out of prison, Salt Lake City is melting down in Greece, and Bravo’s fraud math is back on the table. The girls dive straight into who deserves a redemption arc, who absolutely doesn’t, and why Meredith’s accountability avoidance should honestly have its own confessionals. From there, it’s a full reality-TV-to-pop-culture spiral including Vanderpump Villa relationship theories, Southern Charm friendship fractures, and a few too-real docuseries parallels that hit closer to home than expected.Timestamps:06:00 Sauna Nicki Minaj tea & the almost–Ryan Serhant scam11:53 Jen Shah out, Bravo’s fraud math & docuseries talk17:13 Taylor Swift doc tease, car app husbands & Marciano on Harry Jowsey31:04 New York plans, Broadway dreams & the self-checkout rant36:41 Salt Lake City in Greece: glam, falls & non-apologies51:00 Southern Charm: Craig vs Austen, the new guy & the hot-tub triangle01:07:38 Ick & IconFull Episode:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/friend-of/id1804716774?utm_source=shownotes&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=friendofSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6BBvlAzxsVdHtz8vB6PrJn?utm_source=shownotes&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=friendofConnect With Us:Instagram: @friendofpodcastTikTok: @friendofpodcastFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

Ariana and Renee immediately spiral into the universal dilemma of loving two people who cannot stand each other, which somehow leads them through parasocial loyalty, the Summer House trailer, and the NFL’s sudden reality-TV era.From there they drop into Southern Charm’s breakup timelines, Ciara’s online commentary, and the Marciano vs Demi lawsuit that has the Secret Lives universe questioning credibility, FaceTimes, and who actually gets a mic at a reunion. Beverly Hills gets its own moment too, with Dorit and PK’s separation, annulment debates, Kathy Hilton thriving, and a few new faces shifting the cast math.Plus: Kim’s Paris robbery episode takes them all the way from Simone’s downstairs perspective to diamond-in-court energy, paparazzi parallels, and one extremely questionable book title, before they wrap with Icons and Icks on everything from NFL crossovers to people outing politics online.Timestamps:00:00:00 — Cold open and the “loving people who hate each other” problem00:04:10 — Summer House trailer, NFL crossover and reality on the field00:09:30 — New York-at-Christmas plans, FAO Schwarz and Frosty’s bar00:11:50 — Southern Charm breakups, Paige, Craig, Sierra and online lines00:19:00 — Marciano vs Demi lawsuit, credibility and false-accusation fears00:27:00 — Secret Lives reunion structure, Stassi’s role and missing voices00:37:30 — Beverly Hills divorces, annulments, Kathy, Rachel and Amanda00:47:30 — Kardashians in Paris, the robbery retold and Kim’s quiet power move01:05:30 — Icons, icks and the reality TV week in a bowConnect With Us:Instagram: @friendofpodcastTikTok: @friendofpodcastFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

Whitney is in her full Roxie Hart era and we are so here for it — even if the internet can’t decide whether to cheer, critique, or ask how she’s doing it all as a mom. Ariana and Renee get into Puff Daddy documentaries, childhood VHS vibes (VeggieTales vs. vulgar rap — opposites attract), and the two very different ways our hosts grew up consuming pop culture.Then it’s straight into Bravo land. We break down Vanderpump’s brand-new cast and why the premiere felt more “middle of the season” than “start of something exciting.” Will we care about these people? TBD. Salt Lake City gives us accountability issues, non-apology apologies, Bronwyn unpacking childhood validation, and the sloppiest party games ever created. And Southern Charm… well, let’s just say the Austen–Audrey energy feels like a slow breakup in real time, the Craig–Venita thing still makes zero sense, Patricia on an iPad is mother, and Madison’s house has us looking at real estate we absolutely cannot afford.Stay to the end for this week’s Ick and Icon — with a Vanderpump–Salt Lake City double header and a surprising amount of love for working moms just trying to do big things on big stages.Chapters00:00 Bronchitis season and a Puff Daddy doc binge08:30 Childhood pop culture: VeggieTales vs. MuchMusic15:30 Tell Me Lies rewatch and Toronto spotting23:00 Whitney’s Roxie Hart moment & motherhood expectations31:00 Working-mom double standards and viral sports comparisons39:00 Vanderpump Rules premiere: first impressions48:30 RHOSLC: apologies, boundaries & validation spirals1:02:30 Southern Charm: houses, cats & Craig-Venita confusion1:08:30 Ick & IconFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

If you think you know Jared Osmond, this conversation will undo everything you thought you understood. Jared opens up about what it’s really been like stepping into the Bravo universe — from unexpected casting to the emotional whiplash of watching himself become the season’s “villain.”We talk about the love story that refuses to quit, how off-camera dynamics get twisted into on-camera narratives, and why real life — kids, careers, relationships — is way harder to navigate than any scene you’ll see on TV. Jared also shares what the public doesn’t see: the spiritual side, the conflict-averse human behind the headlines, and the toll the show has taken on the people he loves most.It’s honest, vulnerable, funny, and at times heartbreaking. Whether you adore him, fear him, or still have whiplash from Bravocon, this chat gives you the version of Jared that the edit never will.Timestamps:01:30 How he ended up on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City04:00 Living inside the “villain” narrative07:00 The Brittany dynamic, then and now10:00 Cast relationships & private conversations13:00 Bravocon, boos & public perception16:00 How filming affects real-life family19:00 Career, reputation & life outside the show22:00 Why he won’t attend the reunionConnect With Us:Instagram: @friendofpodcastTikTok: @friendofpodcastFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

The internet has questions — and so do we. Secret Lives of Mormon Wives just announced another massive season order, and everyone’s wondering the same thing: is Demi actually returning? We dig into the reunion energy, the nonstop filming schedule, and why the cast seems to be living in a perpetual state of “mic’s still on.”Then it’s over to Vegas, where Stassi rumours are bubbling again. Were cameras rolling at the Unwell event? Is her long-teased show finally happening? And why does every sighting come with a new theory?We also get into the resurfaced online chatter around Kim Kardashian’s Call Her Daddy interview — including the unexpectedly honest moments that are making their rounds on TikTok again.Plus: Tell Me Lies tension, Sex Lives of College Girls recommendations, Elf-on-the-Shelf parenting confessions, advent calendar lore, and winter sickness solidarity.It’s that perfect December blend of Bravo questions, pop-culture breadcrumbs, and moms trying to stay upright.

Ariana and Renee show up fully caffeinated (and maybe Vyvanse-assisted) for a marathon pop-culture breakdown that starts with TikTok conspiracy dumps and somehow ends in a deep dive on parenting styles. They unpack the growing Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni noise, the Ryan Reynolds reputation whispers, and what Taylor’s wedding guest list may quietly reveal.Then it's onto the exploding Secret Lives of Mormon Wives timeline — haircuts, call-outs, Fruity Pebbles lore, and the kind of online behaviour that makes you question everyone’s moral compass.Plus: that Salt Lake City plane story, an emotional therapy moment, the Dancing With the Stars upset, fresh Netflix docs, and a classic Southern Charm party that sparks new romantic math.Timestamps:00:00:00 — Vyvanse Vibes & Morning Energy 00:04:07 — Haircuts, Extensions & Identity Shifts 00:05:41 — TikTok Deep Dive: Blake, Ryan & The Missing Posts 00:10:56 — Taylor’s Wedding Rumours & Friendship Math 00:14:05 — Mormon Wives Fallout & The Fruity Pebbles Saga 00:23:12 — Documentary Alerts: Simon Cowell & Puff Daddy 00:25:35 — Dancing With the Stars: Popularity vs. Performance 00:27:23 — Salt Lake City’s Plane Story & Apology Math 00:36:00 — Therapy Dynamics & Parenting Reflections 00:47:16 — Southern Charm: Parties, Crushes & Frat-Boy ChaosFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

This week, the girls spiral straight into the emotional deep end — chatting motherhood expectations, teaching kids generosity, and the small joys (and delusions) that keep us sane.From Vegas F1 sightings to Jake Paul’s marketing genius, Cat Stickler rumors, and a full Tell Me Lies spiral, the girls run through the celebrity and TV moments currently living rent-free in their heads. They dig into Wicked’s performances, the raw weight of the Surviving Mormonism doc, and a surprisingly thoughtful RHOC reunion.Then it’s back into Kardashian world — Kendall’s horses, family history, co-parenting revelations, and that Kim vs. Kourtney tension we all felt in our bones — before closing with a very on-brand Ick & Icon.Timestamps:00:01:22 — Post-Bravocon Feelings & Life Re-Entry00:04:07 — Motherhood: Expectations vs Reality00:11:07 — F1 in Vegas: Celebrity Culture & Parties00:19:45 — Jake Paul: Marketing Genius & His Fight00:22:25 — Cat Stickler & John Mayer Rumors00:24:00 — “Tell Me Lies” TV Show Discussion00:27:00 — “Wicked” Movie Review00:33:24 — “Surviving Mormonism” Documentary00:36:45 — RHOC Reunion Talk00:47:00 — Kardashians: Co-Parenting, Family History & OJ01:01:00 — Ick & IconFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.

We recorded this episode in full Bravocon-hangover mode, still half-laughing, half-shocked at what actually went down on Sunday night. From accidentally spending 45 minutes waiting for Craig Conover to emerge from a State Farm shoot, to Captain Carey literally hopping into our Uber like the world’s friendliest sea captain, to Luann casually adjusting boobs in a hotel bar — this night deserves its own franchise.We get into the unexpected softness of Joe Bradley (the hype-man we never knew we needed), why West and Kyle continue to be the nicest humans on Bravo, Bronwyn’s rising queen status, Emmy flipping a necklace mid-bar, Lake guessing ages, and Zach Wickham running the social Olympics to make sure everyone has a good time.Plus: Stassi stepping into reunion-host mode, the internet spiraling over Whitney’s Dancing With the Stars exit, and the messy Wendy & Eddie fraud headlines that dropped mid-week.Timestamps:00:00 — The Bravocon fog and why Sunday night broke us06:30 — Waiting 45 minutes for Craig (and still missing him)11:50 — Captain Carey hops in our Uber like a legend16:40 — Hotel bar safari: Housewives “in the wild”23:10 — Luann adjusts boobs + delivers an iconic one-liner29:20 — Joe Bradley’s hype-man era + West & Kyle sweetness36:45 — Emmy fixes the necklace; Lake plays the age game42:30 — Zach Wickham: guardian angel of vibes48:55 — Stassi hosting, DWTS chaos, and Wendy & Eddie rumoursFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

Today it's a full deep-dive into the Southern Charm season premiere, and Charleston wasted zero time delivering. This episode unpacks the surprise tension between Craig Conover and Venita Aspen, the early cracks in Austen Kroll’s relationship, and the slow-burn love triangle forming around Craig and Sally. Plus, we revisit the Paige fallout, the JT loyalty hangover, and why Madison’s co-ed baby shower at Patricia’s house might be one of the most revealing group scenes in years.We follow the premiere beat by beat — from that “two months earlier” cold open, to Shep oversharing in the baby store, to the boys immediately becoming the most dramatic people in the room. If this episode is any indication, it’s going to be a season built on shifting alliances, soft-spoken shade, and a whole lot of Charleston crossover energy.Timestamps:0:00 — Why this premiere feels different3:10 — Charleston energy & long-term cast dynamics7:40 — The co-ed baby shower & early cracks in the group11:50 — “Two months earlier…” and the boys’ foreshadowed blowup15:20 — Venita vs. Craig: where the tension really started20:40 — Austen’s relationship questions25:05 — The Sally situation & the new triangle28:30 — Season themes we’re already spottingFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

Three days of BravoCon in Vegas distilled into one hour. Ariana and Renee talk about crossing paths with Lisa Vanderpump, and unexpected run-in with Tom Sandoval, and the Summer House excitement that kept following them around.Recording straight from their Bellagio bed, the girls unpack what BravoCon felt like from the inside: the energy on day one, the encounters that shifted their perspective, a night out that escalated fast, and why seeing certain Bravolebs in person completely changed the way they watch their shows. They also get into the panels that delivered, the franchises that surprised them, the merch they couldn’t leave without, and the spontaneous idea that might shape future episodes. It’s messy, warm, and very much a love letter to Bravo fans who know the ecosystem too well.Timestamps:00:00 – Welcome from the Bellagio & how BravoCon hit differently this year05:00 – Early impressions, first encounters & the fan-to-Bravoleb energy shift12:00 – A dinner moment featuring one very iconic Housewife16:00 – A night out in Vegas that became the centerpiece of the trip22:00 – Bravolebs IRL: who surprised them and what felt unexpected30:00 – Panels, sneak peeks & the franchises with real momentum38:00 – Final-day highlights & the conversations that stuck with them44:00 – Merch, memories & the spark of a new Friend Of idea47:00 – Final reflections before their last Vegas dinnerFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.

Then it’s a full dive into Salt Lake City — husbands who hate the show, Whitney’s job drama, Angie vs. everyone, and the line of the week: “You’re not my God.”They wrap with Miami reunion takeaways, Love Island career pivots, Hillary Duff renaissance, and the eternal question: why did they name that child Slim Easy?Chapters:0:00 BravoCon packing panic, outfit stress & prep week5:15 Postpartum Housewives era, reality TV comfort & Hayu as fairy godmother6:50 Traitors cast reactions, Love Island UK & Maura Higgins / au pair backstory13:40 Kris Jenner’s birthday: Kim’s vlog, Harry & Meghan in (and out of) the carousel16:25 Nara Smith, Skims holiday campaign & the “Slim Easy” kid-name conversation19:40 Jonas Brothers Christmas movie & concerts, Joe Jonas interview clip & Twilight / millennial comeback chat25:20 Family Channel nostalgia, Hannah Montana party & Miley Cyrus airband / Keg Cup story28:30 Tell Me Lies, other TV recs & Bravocon outfit predictions33:00 RHOSLC recap: garden party, TikTok cheating rumor, midseason mark & Greece trailer46:00 Bronwyn & Todd’s arrangement, Whitney’s perspective & husbands vs. the show53:20 Icks & IconsFriend Of is proudly presented by Hayu, the home of reality TV.Hundreds of shows.
