Meghan and Emily start with some Bravo small talk: the Marie Claire "Black at Bravo" roundtable with Lake, Jasmine, Venita, and Mia, why the burden always seems to land on Black cast members instead of producers, and a shout-out to the Black Bravo creators who inspired this podcast.

Then it's into RHONY, where Erin picks up exactly where she left off and Haley (a mongoose, not a garden snake) gives us the cuss-out of the season. Carol doesn't want to talk about the Kennedy curse (except when she does), Daisy and Sai go pocket-watching over rent, Sai opens up about her marriage and her mom, Martha Stewart makes cameo #3, and Carol's off-Broadway gala turns into the Erin and Haley show. Is Erin taking lessons from Hubhouse? Tell us in the comments after you leave a 5-star rating and review!
