Not Skinny But Not Fat

Today I am joined by the breakout star of season 8 of VPR – Dayna Kathan. After resolving our misunderstandings – we might have almost had a *Mandy Moore* situation on our hands – Dayna forgives me for my bitchy story about her (can we blame my pregnancy savageness?) and tells me all about Max, Brett, how the OG’s welcomed her, who she is closest with, what she was doing before getting cast, and how she’s keeping her expectations at bay. She addresses the “phat pussy” comment and how she is dealing with the support/criticism of being a reality star.

In the midst of this insane, apocalyptic time in our lives, we all need relief from anxiety. Some more than others, some with pre-existing anxiety, and those that have been suffering for years. Some of us are feeling an immense sense of doom, and some have been preparing for the worst of all forever! I have been very open about my own anxiety, and was very happy to have Alison Seponara, the therapist behind the Instagram @theanxietyhealer, joins me to give tips to cope with anxiety at this heightened time, and answer all of our questions. It’s ok to feel whatever you are feeling! Love. A. This episode was brought to you by: Ritual Essentials have the nutrients most of us don't get enough of in our food.

I had to bring on my male counterpart of Bachelor recaps, comedian Jared Freid! Jared joins me in discussing this entire shitshow of a season, how we think it’ll end, how we both hate spoilers, what we think about the new bachelorette and what we absolutely can’t wait to see on the Bachelor Finale.

Arielle is on the pod and won’t STFU about how all the girls on The Bachelor already have a gazillion followers and WE DON’T GET IT. Also, peter is a whiny and needy bachelor and we discuss his spotting on a very famous celeb’s story. Does that mean he’s single? We talk about our predictions for the finale, and recap last week’s episode. I discuss VPR and how newbie Dayna is weirdly the main event of the season so far – is nothing else interesting going on??? We hate on some sappy Valentines Day posts (cough cough *Colton and Cassie*) we also continue to vom on Tyler C and discuss his new TV appearance. Also, which famous A list couple got back together and who’s our fave Bach nation couple?

This is undoubtedly one of the worst seasons of the Bachelor but you know I’m watching and commenting like it’s my damn job. Someone needs to call out these thirst monsters! However, Peter did make some shocking cuts this week, all while looking so worried and just sad, like can you be happy all these girls want to bone you or nah? The Vandy cast is still celebrating Jax and Brittany’s Bachelor/ette party in Miami, and going to strip clubs every single night (and enjoying it WAY too much).

Wow, Justin Beiber’s 'Seasons' and Taylor Swift’s 'Miss Americana' out at the same time [insert mind blown emoji], so you can’t help but compare – and of course, we do.

Celebrity hairstylist (slash British model) Chris Appleton comes on the pod to tell us all about how he became the go-to-guy for celeb hair; J.Lo, Kim K, Ariana Grande, Dua Lipa, Katy Perry and many other A listers trust his hands. Why does he think being British and hot has nothing to do with it? What did he think about J.Lo’s Golden Globes dress? Does he think pink hair is passé? Was Kim’s blonde hair a wig? I also had to ask “should I go blonder?” Do people look best with their natural hair color? How is he getting ready for J.Lo’s Superbowl hair? I ask all the important questions. And no he wouldn’t lift his shirt up.  This episode was brought to you by: Ritual Essentials have the nutrients most of us don't get enough of in our food.

This season of RHONJ is freaking iconic. From hair pulling to crying at the dinner table with Nono, I’m living for the ladies outside of the city.

I can’t believe the day has come, that I am watching Vanderpump Rules with the rest of the world. Ever since I wrapped up my 7 season binge a few months ago, I have been waiting for season 8 like crazy!  Bravo’s official podcast, The Daily Dish, asked me to come on and recap the first episode and I couldn’t have been more excited to come on as a HASHTAG VPR AMBASSADOR / EXPERT. I freaking loved the first episode – I laughed, I cried, and I had SO MUCH. What did I think of the new people? How do I feel about most of the cast being grown ups with houses and lawn mowers?

Finally, there’s p(r)oo(f)sh (lol – I tried) that Younes and Kourt are back together, and perhaps Kendall and Ben Simmons as well. Wilmer Valderrama broke our hearts by getting engaged, and not to Demi Lovato. Tyler C and Matt James thirst update, JB & Selena come out with new music almost at the same time, and Cameron Diaz had a baby but no one knows where it came from.
