2024-03-201h 22We Signed An NDASocial Survivor (w/ Chris Burns aka Fat Carrie Bradshaw)"I'll unpack my feelings." "Privately?" "Yeah." "Thank you." As Ann puts it, this week's episode of VPR feels like "Social Survivor." Alliances are deepening, rifts are widening, and everyone is scoping out where their friends fall on the Sandoval Banishment Spectrum. Amanda and Ann analyze this episode's many "windsights" (windows + insights, get on board!) into why some VPR cast members are clinging to their friendship with Tom, what their motivations could be, and what power dynamics may or may not be at play.

Amanda and Ann dive into Lake Tahoe with the Vanderpump gang (Tom Sandoval has re-joined the group ... yikes). We've got a derpy wolf, we've got a bee sacrifice, we've got deeply uncomfortable pre-Tahoe shopping trips, but do we have accountability from Sandoval? That is the question.Then the gals interview Raiza Licea (Artistic Director at Upright Citizens Brigade, former assistant to Juanes) and Milagro Morales (ceramicist, current assistant to Raiza Licea) about the comedy and improv community at UCB, hot takes on VPR, Drake's [redacted], and their...
