Bravo! We're Black

Aaron is back on Bravo, We’re Black, holding it down for Kaya alongside Mani from The Mix with Mani, and cousin, there is A LOT to discuss.

First, Mani brings a fiery hot take about Bravo’s Small Town Trouble trailer, questioning the network’s decision to platform a cast member with a documented history of racist behavior while shows like Summer House MV, Family Karma, and Real Housewives of Miami have struggled to get the support they deserve. Is Bravo expanding its audience, or forgetting who its audience actually is?

Then we head to Potomac, where the ladies are already delivering drama. Ashley Darby is once again carrying information to a microphone, this time involving allegations about Tia’s husband and dating apps. Mani and Aaron get into why these husbands underestimate the Bravo fandom, the rumors surrounding Tia’s marriage, and why the streets are always watching.

Over in Salt Lake City, it’s time for the real mess. Bronwyn is navigating her separation from Todd with a hot model on her arm, but is this a genuine fresh start or a carefully curated Housewives comeback? Whitney is back on her annual apology tour, Meredith is not accepting the apology this time, and Lisa Barlow’s Bullshit & Ho Hypocrisy performance gives Bronwyn’s event a whole new soundtrack.

We also discuss Whitney and Justin’s financial fallout, Angie’s increasingly troubling situation with Sean, Britani’s questionable nursing-home bouquet moment, and whether Mary’s return to filming is happening too soon after her loss.

Plus, Mani shares why Bravo needs to bring back Miami, make Housewives rich again, and stop confusing controversy with good television.

Follow Mani at @mixingwithmaniand check out The Mix with Mani wherever you listen to podcasts. Show some love to Aaron in the comments, and let us know which Bravo mess has you the most invested.

Kaya is back with Leah from Positively Uncensored for another Real Housewives of New York recap, and the women of Mosquito Island are making a mess of their supposedly luxurious getaway.
First, we get into the pop culture stories taking over our timelines: Bravo’s Next Gen ATL, the questionable decision to turn The Circle into another celebrity playground, and the saga of Ash’s alleged kayaking expedition down the Congo River. Is it an extreme adventure or an elaborate content strategy? Kaya and Leah have questions.

Then it’s time for RHONY, where Sai is recovering from her Tipsy Tennis injury, Jessel is cracking jokes about the rumors surrounding her husband, and Erin is doing an awful lot of backtracking about what she said and when she said it. Is she genuinely trying to repair her friendship with Sai, or is she worried about what happens when Sai starts connecting the dots?

Meanwhile, Carole’s explanations about her connection to Jeffrey Epstein and her comparisons to Sai’s past leave Kaya and Leah questioning her judgment, her defensiveness, and her apparent inability to understand why people have questions. Add in the mysterious gossip from Mason at The RealReal, questionable island fashion, and Erin’s unexpected ability to queef on demand, and you have another chaotic week in New York.

Subscribe to Bravo We’re Black, check out Positively Uncensored, and tell us what you think: Is Erin capable of changing, or is Sai right to keep her at arm’s length?

Kaya is joined by Kendrick Tucker of the I Ken Not podcast to recap The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, and baby, Meredith Marks has entered her DJ diss-track era! On the second installment of the San Francisco cast trip, Meredith and Lisa Barlow team up to perform “Hypocrisy and Bullshit” at Bronwyn’s disco party, leaving Bronwyn in tears and kicking off a debate about whether she was genuinely embarrassed or simply missing an opportunity to deliver a proper Housewives comeback.

Kaya and Kendrick are firmly in the camp of: stand up, girl! Plus, Heather Gay’s ongoing resentment over Bronwyn’s money, Whitney’s potential divorce and suspiciously familiar storyline, Brandon’s appearance on The Kardashians, and Meredith’s newfound energy behind the DJ booth all get the treatment. Is Heather a hater, or is she just committed to making everybody as miserable as she is? The conversation also takes a few entertaining detours into Housewives conspiracy theories, the mystery of Heather’s black eye, Meredith’s ever-discussed wigs, genetically inherited features, and the gloriously unhinged world of daytime soap operas. It’s a San Francisco trip full of shady lyrics, questionable decisions, and a whole lot of cackling.

Kaya and Kendrick have thoughts, and they are not keeping them to themselves.

Raven joins Kaya for another Hot Topics crossover! The Southern Charm trailer is here, and apparently somebody has a SECRET LOVE CHILD. We break down our completely unserious baby-daddy theories, Allie entering the group ready to cause chaos, Austen and Salley doing the same embarrassing dance all over again, Molly chasing Salley through the house, Venita potentially dating Whitner, and why these Charleston women may need to start importing men.Then, Porsha Williams reveals that her first season of RHOA only paid around $60,000 — and says Shamea may be holding onto their friendship drama because she needs a storyline. Plus, The Valley is filming again, Haley’s parents are publicly challenging parts of her RHONY story, and we ask the only question that matters: who do we actually believe? It’s Bravo, mess, questionable men and Raven and Kaya shooting the shit. Exactly how it should be.

Kaya and Leah from Positively Uncensored are back for another week of RHONY — and we need to discuss the MEN on this show immediately.But first: Erin gets called boring and decides to respond by throwing one of the most controversial periods of Haley’s life directly in her face.The read lands so badly that Haley announces she’s quitting, walks out of the dinner and has to be talked back into filming by Sai.And somehow that’s only the beginning.At the Seder, Carole confronts Jessel over her “Carolyn Bessette Summer” comments, only for Jessel to nearly tell Carole “don’t spoil it for me” while discussing a story about Carole’s ACTUAL FAMILY.We should not have laughed.We did.Then Daisy confronts Jessel and Erika over making fun of her popcorn ceilings, which leads us directly into one of the episode’s biggest debates:Daisy pays $300 a month in rent.Yes. Three hundred.Meanwhile Sai is paying around $25,000 a month, and Kaya and Leah have very different feelings about what both situations say about money, housing and the kind of ridiculous wealth we actually want to see on Housewives.Then Sai tells a story that nearly ends the podcast:Her husband took her to a beautiful restaurant for her birthday. They had a romantic night. They got home. Things were apparently looking UP for the marriage.Then she checked her credit-card statement.HE CHARGED THE DINNER TO HER CARD.And it gets worse when Sai explains how emotionally absent he was during one of the hardest periods of her life.We also talk about Haley’s relationship with her mother, Martha Stewart’s very bizarre Housewives cameo, FIFA tickets costing tens of thousands of dollars, Erika’s increasingly convincing billionaire connections, and why Jessel being tacky, shady and completely out of touch is actually exactly what we want from this show.

Semajh has officially returned to Bravo We’re Black! After taking a long Dorinda Medley-style pause from podcasting, Semajh reunites with Kaya during the most appropriate season possible: RHOSLC season and pumpkin spice season.We’re breaking down The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 7, Episode 3, starting with the genuinely moving way the women put their differences aside to support Mary.And then — naturally — Salt Lake City immediately returns to foolishness.New friend Ashley Quai tells Whitney something VERY personal involving her husband and a toothbrush and essentially says: girl, do not repeat this on camera. Whitney promises she won’t. You already know what happens next. Not only does the story spread through the group, but by the time the ladies get to San Francisco, toothbrushes are literally being passed around while Ashley gets her official RHOSLC hazing. We also get into Angie and Shawn’s marriage struggles, Meredith’s DJ era, Britani’s TikTok aspirations, Lisa and Bronwyn having the exact kind of low-stakes petty argument Housewives was built for, Bronwyn smoking through San Francisco, and our theory that Heather and Whitney may not actually like Bronwyn as much as they like having her against Lisa.T hen we catch up with Semajh on everything he’s watching — including Ultimate Girls Trip, Next Gen NYC, RHOC and Coyote vs. Acme, which apparently deserves your money because this man watched it THREE TIMES.Salt Lake City is three episodes in and so far? It’s eating.

Kaya finally has Raven and Samantha Bush together at the same time, and absolutely nothing stays on topic.We begin with Samantha’s housewarming grocery bill somehow costing over $400 before alcohol even entered the chat, before giving some much-deserved flowers to the Black women of Bravo.Then we get into the much heavier pop-culture conversation surrounding Gypsy Rose and her late ex-fiancé Ken, including the statements being discussed from his sister Autumn, Gypsy’s social media posts and the questions people online are raising about their relationship.From there, we move into Harry Jowsey’s claims about the current Love Island cast’s contracts and why the arrangement sounds suspiciously similar to the entertainment industry’s infamous 360 deals.Are these Islanders getting all these brand opportunities without actually getting paid yet? And more importantly: did any of them actually read the contract?We also discuss the rumors surrounding Britt Stewart and Dancing With the Stars, why certain pros seem to get much better partners than others, our undying love for Nikki and Brie Bella, and why Total Divas needs to be resurrected immediately.Then the episode becomes what Samantha has been waiting for:Gilmore Girls.Kaya and Raven are eight episodes into their first-ever watch, and Samantha — a lifelong Stars Hollow resident in spirit — gets to hear their unfiltered opinions.Raven thinks Lorelai never shuts up. Neither of us trusts Max. Luke is growing on us. Paris is already irritating. Richard and Emily are becoming favorites.And Samantha is basically vibrating waiting for us to meet Jess Mariano.Plus: Kaya confesses that she spent years posting Gilmore Girls memes despite never actually watching the show, and Samantha reveals the completely unnecessary lie she used to tell men about being a runner.

Xavier is gone, but he made sure Katie wouldn’t have a peaceful first day as a Traitor.Kaya and Phillip Solomon are back to break down the next round of The Traitors: New Blood, starting with Xavier’s final move: planting Katie’s name throughout the castle before leaving. Phillip thinks that makes it almost impossible to judge Katie fairly because she entered the Turret already several steps behind.Things get worse when Michael and Ben sacrifice $10,000 for a clue revealing that two players battled in plain sight to become a Traitor. Suddenly Arisa’s strange hand-holding moment becomes a real piece of evidence, and the castle sends yet another Faithful home.We also discuss Joe being the human version of a reaction emoji, Katie getting closer to the younger players, Phillip’s behind-the-scenes Deal or No Deal Island experience, Jay annoying basically everyone, Abby grasping at paper straws, the body-language expert who somehow stopped reading body language, and Michael’s emotional moment after Joe defended him. Phillip also explains why Joe’s support of Michael carries extra weight when you’re a marginalized person entering a social environment where perception can determine whether you stay or go.And then comes what may be the Traitors’ biggest mistake yet: murdering Logan after Logan had already clocked Katie. Instead of removing suspicion, Joe and Tomica may have accidentally confirmed it. Plus: the Death Parade, the murder pool, Jay screaming names with zero evidence and our ongoing campaign to please get this man out of the castle.

Kaya is joined by Deal or No Deal Island Season 2’s Phillip Solomon for the beginning of our weekly The Traitors: New Blood coverage!After just two episodes, Kaya is ready to make a bold prediction: Joe and Tomica might actually take this thing all the way.But first, we need to discuss Kim lying about being a basketball coach to hide the fact that she’s a lawyer… only for Joe and Tamika to clock her intelligence anyway and make her their first murder.Kaya and Phillip also break down Victor’s extremely suspicious shield grab, Katie vs. Xavier for the third Traitor position, whether this cast truly qualifies as “civilians,” who has the best chance of winning and why Phillip thinks Million Dollar Secret fixes one of The Traitors’ biggest gameplay problems.Then we leave the castle for a little Bravo mess: Phillip tells the story of randomly running into Teresa Giudice and Luis Ruelas, we talk Ultimate Girls Trip, the upcoming celebrity Traitors cast, Cynthia Bailey, Gizelle Bryant, Kristin Chenoweth — and, naturally, Phaedra and Rob.

Kaya and Raven reunite for another Bravo We’re Black × Bitch Is Better crossover to recap another ridiculously fun episode of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th Anniversary.It’s Luann’s day in New York, and apparently that means magic, mentalism, talent shows, group-photo drama and a LOT of yelling.First, a mysterious mentalist somehow has Kyle feeling Luann being touched, correctly guesses the person Chanel Ayan is thinking about and then gets Luann to LEVITATE — much to Raven’s horror.Then Porsha arrives two hours late, and Luann makes it her personal mission to remind everyone that Porsha missed the most important moment of the evening: HER LEVITATION.We also get Teresa playing saxophone, Lisa rapping, Kyle doing the splits, Porsha performing interpretive dance, Vicki ranting and the entire group confronting Luann about constantly planting herself in the middle of every picture.By the end of the night, Luann and Porsha are battling over accountability, Vicki is threatening to deck people and Kaya and Raven are reminded why silly Housewives drama will always beat dark, exhausting storylines.

Former Bravo producer Patrick McDonald from Renegade Rainbow joins Kaya for a very special crossover episode! Patrick opens up about his journey from reality star to Bravo producer, getting his start on Married to Medicine, working across RHOA, RHOBH, Vanderpump Rules and more, and eventually earning an Emmy nomination for his work during the Scandoval era.Then we get into some serious behind-the-scenes Bravo tea: the Porsha’s Family Matters fight that was MUCH wilder than viewers saw, how Ken Todd ended up delivering one of Scandoval’s most iconic lines, what Garcelle and Candiace were really like behind the scenes, Heather Gay’s black-eye controversy, Summer House’s leaked audio and why problematic cast members sometimes still make it onto these shows. After all that, Patrick sticks around to recap RHOSLC Season 7 Episode 2 with Kaya. We’re talking Whitney and Justin’s marriage, Bronwyn’s new man, Meredith’s facelift, Lisa and Angie on the ski slopes, Heather Gay, and the group finally getting back to the petty fighting Salt Lake City does best.

Kaya and Kendrick are back for Lanterns Episodes 5 and 6, and somehow this show keeps getting crazier. Episode 5 brings the Manhunter storyline to a head as we learn more about Zoe, Rushville’s loyalty to her and just how complicated the entire Green Lantern operation has become. We also get Jon Stewart vs. Hal Jordan — and let’s just say one of them is VERY clearly winning that fight. Then Jon makes a final decision about Zoe before walking away from the Green Lantern life entirely. Or so we thought. Episode 6 jumps forward to 2026, where Jon is working with his brother, designing massive apocalypse bunkers and attempting to move on. Then Bernadette tells him Hal wants to apologize. Jon drives back to Rushville. Hal says he never asked to apologize. Jon punches him. And then… Hal Jordan dies. Now Jon has another mystery to solve, Sheriff Carey has some explaining to do, Guy Gardner is involved again and Jon Stewart needs the Green Lantern ring he previously rejected. By the end of the episode, Jon puts the ring back on — only for a holographic AI version of Hal Jordan to appear and realize that he’s dead. And that STILL leaves the biggest mystery: What the hell is inside Hal Jordan’s giant box? Kaya and Kendrick break down everything they loved, everything that confused them and all the theories heading into the final episodes.

Kaya is joined by Leah from Positively Uncensored for another RHONY crossover! This week, Jessel sparks one of the funniest Housewives debates imaginable after walking into Daisy’s apartment and immediately clocking the popcorn ceilings. But does criticizing a Housewife’s apartment make Jessel classist — or is being rich, materialistic and completely out of touch exactly what we signed up to watch? Then Haley continues to reveal more of her extremely complicated past, from being dragged into the Jon & Kate Plus 8 tabloid circus at 22 to opening up about her unconventional marriage. Meanwhile, Haley and Jessel bond over their mutual dislike of Erin, Carole continues dealing with everyone’s fascination with Carolyn Bessette, Erika opens up about fertility and surrogacy, and the dermatologist drama gets even messier. Finally, Haley calls Erin boring — and Erin absolutely cannot handle it. Before all of that, Kaya and Leah go through the “100 Best TV Shows of the 21st Century” list and question some truly baffling choices. Because seriously… Where are Scandal, Grey’s Anatomy, True Blood and The Vampire Diaries?

Kaya and Raven of Bitch Is Better are back for another Bravolebritea episode, and the new celebrity cast of The Traitors has given them PLENTY to discuss.
Why is Craig Conover in the castle?! Should Bronwyn Newport actually be a Traitor? Will Cynthia Bailey have any idea what’s going on? And can we please keep Taylor Hale, JaNa Craig, Gizelle Bryant, Emira D’Spain, Boman Martinez-Reid and Iain Stirling around long enough to give us the chaos we deserve?
Kaya and Raven go through the cast, decide who they want as Traitors versus Faithfuls and discuss the combinations that could make this season completely unhinged.
They also get into Craig and Venita reportedly communicating again before switching gears to Porsha Williams’ emotional revelation about undergoing an emergency partial hysterectomy after doctors discovered 21 fibroids.
Then Bronwyn Newport lands right back in the hot seat after reports and photos surfaced of her kissing a man who was reportedly still married.
Bronwyn… we were rooting for this hot-girl era!
