The Pinot pod's feelings diverge on Kristen this week, but it still wasn't as disturbing as watching Stassi and Katie do a burlesque routine. We have decided to take on the new dummies on the block in season 12, so join us on this journey as we recap the older seasons and premiere "The New Glass," We'll have a foot in both worlds.

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Vanderpump Rules S12E0: The New GlassWe've decided to cover the new season, so The Pinot pod braved all the spoilers to watch fun look-back of 11 seasons of Vanderpump Rules. And boy, are we glad we did. We learned what this show was ALMOST called, we saw that Jax will always be a dirtbag and that Katie ages like a fine wine. Join us on this journey as we recap the older seasons and premiere "The New Glass," in which we watch each week unfold in real time. We'll have a foot in both worlds. Visit @takeapinotpod on Instagram for lots of f...

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Vanderpump Rules S2E4: RumorsSorry for the belated pod this week, squad. Jeff was the worst chaperone ever and let Sundi and Brooke's Sunday Funday get out of hand. Trigger warning for this week: we talk a lot about the verbal and emotional abuse Jax receives at the hands of a absolutely diabolical person that claims to love him and there is some cancer-talk throughout. We promise, its not as much of a bummer as it sounds. This is the start of our new maximized coverage, so you'll get a recap, coverage of the upcoming season (The New Glass) a...

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Vanderpump Rules S2E3: Only The LonelySURPRISE! YOU GET TWO EPISDOES THIS WEEK!!!! The dummies are abusing us here at the Pinot Pod this week. Kristen and Sandoval, which will be known as Krandoval from now on, made it so, very awkward the whole time and we just want them to break up already Jassi inch closer to reconciliation, despite Dayna-with-a-Y's best efforts, and there was even a kiss. Sandoval had a big gig but Peter and Scheana gave off "real worker alerts" for the whole episode. We continue to hope Peter grows his career as a wine expert or...

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Mini-episode: Vanderpump Rules S12 TrailerIn this unprecedented installment of "because the present" the Pinot Squad takes a look at the Vanderpump Rules Season 12: New Shift trailer and we were ... underwhelmed. We used the guide from the Bravo website to chat a little bit about each new cast member and compared them to the old cast. We had several "new Scheanas" but not one "new Stassi." Jeff wouldn't allow it. Visit @takeapinotpod on Instagram for a slide show with each character's picture and little assessment to go along, not to mention a few visual aids to help you under...

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Vanderpump Rules S2E2: BrandedAs the Pinot Squad wades into season 2, the Pinot Squad is determined to make "Jassi" a thing and continue to make "current references only" - this week it was an Archie Bunker joke Sundi had to take out. (Because nobody laughed, obvi). Sundi, Brooke and Jeff continue to swoon over LVP, even as she gets messier and messier, and this week, we've added "ass sucker" to the pod lexicon (you'll know why soon enough). This week, Jeff and Brooke share an Ikea horror story, similar to VPR's worst couple, Sandoval and Kristen, and we talk about our "hal...

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Mini-episode: Peter's Movie, The Raivan DestinyOkay... so we may have been over-zealous about reviewing this movie, and we FOR SURE over hyped it. However, Sundi, Brooke and Jeff chat about it (for longer than the length of the actual movie) and lemme tell ya... we have thoughts. Make sure to visit @takeapinotpod on Instagram for a few visual aids and/or email us at sundi@pinotpod.com jeff@pinotpod.com or brooke@pinotpod.com Also, leave us a review on Apple or where you listen so more folks can listen to us chat about these dummies.

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Vanderpump Rules S2E1: Tooth and ConsequencesThe Pinot squad took on a new season, and as Jeff says, "it looks like it's more of the same" to which we say, "THANK GOODNESS." As the new season dawns, Katie has new hair, Jax is looking fine (and Sundi is appropriately shamed for her opinions on the matter) and Brooke brags about the series of very healthy and fulfilling relationships she's had over the course of her life. (That is probably why she is the nicest of the bunch). Make sure to visit @takeapinotpod on Instagram for a few visual aids and/or em...

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Vanderpump Rules S1 E10: Secrets RevealedThat's a wrap on season 1 of Vanderpump Rules. Sundi, Jeff and Brooke are joined by friend-of-the-pod, Nolin to go over some of the juiciest, never-before-seen moments of the first 9 episodes. Nolin's son, (and Sundi's favorite [grand]child), Shep, drops in for a special cameo (and also provides a fair bit of background harmony.) Warning: This was a chaotic one, so bear with us (that's what we get for recording on a school night). We DID get to discuss the boot-and-rally of our youths, "thirsty daddies" and whatever a "crymax" is. Make sure to visit @takeapinotpod on In...

She made us a batch of Pumptinis to enjoy while we did our very first post-mortem of the season. Things got a little hectic toward the end, so if you hear a toddler crying, a kitten meowing or a grown dog choking on the remains of a destroyed toy.... no you didn't.

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Mini-episode: Casting Couch - Vanderpump Rules S!We played casting director for the day and shared our picks for the fictional Vanderpump Rules: The Movie. As expected, Brooke won the day with some very inspired choices and we had to stop and Google a few of Jeff's choices. I think we got it just right. Send us your ideal cast ideas on Instagram @takeapinotpod or reach out via email at sundi@pinotpod.com brooke@pinotpod.com or jeff@pinotpod.com The recap for VPR S1E6 dropped earlier today and it was a doozy.

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Vanderpump Rules "Caught with your Trousers Down" S1E6 part 2The Pinot squad had a lot to say about this episode, so we had to split it into two parts. In this installment, we shamelessly and lasciviously lust over LVP in her "slutty little pussy bow blouse" and we meet Stassi's parents and we understand Stassi soooo much better. If you haven't yet, listen to part 1 "Caught with your Trousers Down" dropping at the same time, and our mini-episode "Casting Couch" where we decide who should play the cast in a movie. Hint: Clea Duvall is a versatile choice. Peter's movie, "The Raiven Destiny" starring Tom...

In this installment, we shamelessly and lasciviously lust over LVP as she gives Frank his due, we pile on because we really hate him and Jax and Laura Leigh chance contracting Hepatitis C in a public bathroom. Some reconciliations are made in the girl group, but Stassi goes through her second break up of the summer. Look for part 2 of "Caught with your Trousers Down" dropping at the same time, and our mini-episode "Casting Couch" were we...

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Vanderpump Rules: S1E5 - I'm Not A BitchBrooke and Jeff are back, babies! Of course we have to talk a little Vegas action, but more importantly, we get a Jax and Laura Leigh hard launch and Scheana makes her stage debut at the Roxy. Sundi had to edit out the name from a very questionable story, Jeff gets nostalgic about purple-nurple shots and Brooke thinks LVP invented the phrase "spill the tea." We're halfway through the first season and it is GIVING!

Take a drink everytime Stassi reminds you it's her birthday and makes everyone miserable for it. Frank is in, Jax is out.... of his cable knit sweater, a ruckus is caused in a parking lot ads.

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio You Don't Know Jax Vanderpump Rules S1E3Brook and Jeff couldn't be with me to chat about Jax and the infamous cable knit sweater, so I called in a substitute. My daughter, reality television consumer and real life bartender joins the pod to get as we take a trip to Vegas to celebrate Stassi's 24th birthday (take a drink). We're getting front row seats to the Stassi/Frank/Jax show this week.

But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio Welcome to SUR: VPR S1E1In the Season 1 premiere of Vanderpump Rules the camera follows the young, fame-hungry staff at Lisa Vanderpump's West Hollywood restaurant SUR as friendships, hookups and power dynamics fuel the night. Lisa acts as den mother and producer while servers and bartenders jockey for status amid heavy drinking, tip disputes and flirtations. The episode sets the show’s tone: messy relationships, ambition and workplace drama. A newcomer’s arrival sparks a confrontation that exposes insecurity, rivalries and the restaurant’s unique culture that will drive the season.
