On today’s podcast, we break down one of the most iconic fights in Housewife history, the hair pull in Potomac. We wonder exactly what caused Candiace and Monique’s friendship to break down, and we discuss the different ways the women grapple with this shocking event. We unpack how racist stereotypes shape the cast reactions, and we see both Candiace and Monique deal with the fall out. We compare and contrast the various marriage dynamics of the season, and we LOVE a dad with a hot mic. Oh, and we write a weird friendship story between Ray and Gizelle’s dad. Best old man duo ever.
For a better look into how the black image is portrayed on reality tv and pop culture in general, we recommend Raquel Gates's book "Double Negative". https://www.racquelgates.com/double-negative
