Leo and Nesu kick off with the usual check-in, and jump right back in like they never left. The recent spate of high profile breakups (22:01) is on Nesu's mind, followed by this week's 'Pass the Mic' (34:55), which gets the two digging into all things Kerry Washington as well as Beyoncé, and the impact of the Renaissance World Tour as it comes to an end. The conversation switches to the new season of RHOSLC (01:03:16) and the RHONY reboot, and both have noticed a similar theme that seems to emerge on both shows, before finally reminiscing on Scandal (01:20:02), as everyone seems to be in their rewatch era.
It’s been a long time and we shouldn’t have left you without a dope beat to step to, but the gworls are back! Leo and Nesu start off by doing a check-in and sharing an update on where they’ve been, how they’re doing and what’s been going on. The pair go straight into discussing some pop culture topics including cancel culture, the viral Carlos King interviews with Nene Leakes and Kenya Moore (00:36:00). They then segue into giving a recap of what they believe has been the worst season of the Real Housewives of Atlanta (01:09:41), and exchange opinions on who they think needs the chop as well as what they think production should consider for the upcoming season.
Today marks the season 1 finale of the Reality Check Pod and Leo and Nesu are so excited to get into let week's episodes. After their usual weekend round up, they head straight into their thoughts on S1E9 of the Real Housewives of Dubai, ‘Dancehall It Out’ (00:17:15), where Sara vs Brooks continues. They also end off with a rating of the cast and the season [thus far]. Next on the agenda is S14E13 of the Real Housewives of Atlanta, ‘A Rum Punch To The Gut’ (00:51:22). The cast sets off for Jamaica and Kenya seems to have got her groove back? The trip quickly escalates as it's only the first night and Marlo and Kandi (unsurprisingly) have butted heads. Last on the menu was S12E13 of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, 'Rose Coloured Glasses' (01:20:57), and Leo and Nesu share their confusion at Sutton still wanting to be in Rinna's good books. The duo end of by dissenting the shocking scene at Rinna's Rose tasting.
In this week’s episode of the Reality Check Podcast, your hosts are still basking in the glow of Queen Bey’s latest album, Renaissance and cannot stop talking about it! After describing what felt like a “pod day out” over the weekend, they jump into discussing Diana’s Christmas party and the ensuing chaos on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (23:20), S12E12 “Beverly Hills Blackout”. Caroline Stanbury is the topic of conversation on S1E8 “Drama in the Sandbox” of the Real Housewives of Dubai (55:27), as she finally walks down the aisle with Sergio this episode; and introduces the housewives to her circle of friends, with very interesting results. Our Georgia peaches are all hot and bothered on S14E12 of the Real Housewives of Atlanta (01:16:53), “Trust (Planning) Issues” as Kandi looks to plan for the future, and tensions between Drew and Sheree come to a boil over Sheree’s friend Fatum.
It’s another week and Leo and Nesu have actually managed to keep the ball rolling; dare we say, they’re back? The pair start you off with a weekend roundup and head straight into their thoughts on S14E11 of the Real Housewives of Atlanta, ‘Cabin Fever’ (00:18:46). What seems to be a redemption arc for Kenya is discussed by the pair, as well as their mutual shock at how poorly Marlo and Sanya are coming off as new leach holders. They head on to the heated S1E8 of the Real Housewives of Dubai, ‘Drama in the Sandbox’ (00:51:49) where Caroline Brooks and Sara’s misunderstanding almost turns Caroline Stanbury’s desert engagement party upside down! Last on the menu was S12E11 of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, ‘The Weight of Words’ (01:20:57) and the pair further solidified their dislike for Diana and their desire for Crystal to give them more; while enjoying Dorit fangirl’ing for Jamie Lee Curtis.
