Then, they recap of some of the updates in the Diddy case - keep an eye out for a deeper dive coming soon. Speaking of true crime, the new season of Monster hit Netflix this week, with The Lyle And Erik Menendez Story, and Jordana gets into whether or not it nailed the tone… Ryan Murphy might need to take a step back from that genre as a whole.

This week, Sami, Aleen, and Jordana catch up on airplane shoe etiquette (on or off in the bathroom?) before diving into last night’s VMAs, from live performances to fashion choices. Taylor swept for Fortnight, but we’re not buying it as the legitimate Song of the Summer. Meanwhile, Taylor and Travis are doing everything in their power to make us forget about that publicity breakup conspiracy document, and honestly… it’s kind of working. In related billionaire news, Selena Gomez officially joined the club this week, with the success of Rare Beauty. We love a self-made woman, and we will be sat for her upcoming film Emilia Perez. Up at TIFF, JLo and Matt Damon were spotted having an intense conversation while holding hands at the after party for Unstoppable, which stars JLo and is produced by Matt and Ben’s production company. What could they have been talking about? And finally, Netflix’s The Perfect Couple dropped this week and we have… critiques (except for Dakota Fanning, who was perfect).

Then, they catch up on their US Open experiences before sharing an exciting announcement: Betches Sports has officially launched on the Betches website! If you’ve ever felt left out by most mainstream sports coverage, Betches Sports is here to change the narrative, starting with The Betchdel Test. Speaking of sports, a (probably fake) document claiming to be Taylor and Travis’ breakup plan leaked on Snapchat this week, and Sami shares a few conspiracy theories of her own.

Does Bethany Frankel Know Who Danielle Olivera Is?, Are The Kardashians Selling Tea?, And Lana Del Rey’s Alligator Tour Guide Boyfriend

This week, Jordana’s in France, but Sami is back from DC and catches Aleen up on her time at the DNC, including those Beyoncé rumors. Aleen shares news of her upcoming move and a fun interior decorating discovery with her daughter. The much-anticipated 2nd season of Tell Me Lies is dropping next week, but until then, Aleen is loving Industry (aka X-rated Suits). Bethany Frankel had a cringeworthy run-in with Danielle Olivera in the Hamptons and acted like she was too old to know who she was, but Sami and Aleen aren’t convinced. Brittany Cartwright filed for divorce from Jax Taylor this week, which is yet another reason to tune in to season 2 of The Valley. And what is going on with the Kardashian-Jenners and their cryptic posts about tea? Are they launching a new product… or a podcast? Most importantly, it looks like Aleen may have been right about Kylie and Timmy. In other news, Sabrina Carpenter’s new album is on repeat, but are she and Barry Keoghan still together (or were they ever? It’s giving PR relationship). Congrats are in order for Hailey and Justin Bieber’s new baby Jack Blues, and a tentative congrats to Lana Del Rey on her new relationship… do you think they met on one of his alligator tours? Ben Affleck also sparked relationship rumors with Kick Kennedy, which took us all down yet another weird RFK animal horror story. Our Betch of the Week is Lana for being one of the realest in the game, and we’re sending Armie Hammer right back to the Caymans to escape the LA gas prices. Learn more about your ad choices.

J Lo Files For Divorce, Everyone Wants To Be Demure, & Dakota Johnson Is Still Consciously Coupled With Chris Martin

This week, Sami is away at the Bravocon of politics (aka the DNC), so Aleen and Jordana are here to cover this week’s headlines. Aleen kicks things off with her recent online shopping headache, before they dive into celeb news. First up, J Lo has finally filed for divorce from Ben Affleck on the 2nd anniversary of their Georgia wedding, while Ben is in New Haven with the other Jen dropping their daughter off at Yale. Was This Is Me…Now their 2nd Gigli? And how could they not have a prenup? Next, is the “demure” trend over or are we just too old to participate? Either way, we’re happy for Jools Lebron’s viral hit. Speaking of successful women in media, Alex Cooper of Call Her Daddy fame inked a massive deal with SiriusXM. Just don’t call her the female Joe Rogan. And finally, despite rumors to the contrary and those of us (Jordana) who didn’t even know they were together to begin with, Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin are still very much engaged, if her massive emerald ring is any indication. We’re sending Fashion Bunker to the Caymans to sort out their customer service, and our very demure, very mindful, very cutesy Betch of the Week is Jools Lebron. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Sami, Jordana, and Aleen wish Ben Affleck a very happy 52nd birthday, and share their theories on JLo’s recent public sightings with Ben and Jen Garner’s kids. Then, they dive back in to the continuing drama around It Ends With Us. Who is winning the PR war? Does rude behavior in an interview mean Blake is a true mean girl, or are her jokes just not landing? Next, several people have been arrested in connection with Matthew Perry’s death, including two of his doctors. We’ll be keeping an eye on the case as it develops. In true crime news, Jordana watched Netflix’s new Laci Peterson docuseries, and gives Aleen and Sami a refresher on the case. Our Betch of the Week is Lily Collins, because we can’t wait to get home and watch the new season of Emily in Paris, and we’re sending Blake, Ryan, and Justin to the Caymans to do a team building exercise together.

Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds Media Domination, Does The Cast Of “It Ends With Us” Hate Justin Baldoni?, & The Disappointing House Of The Dragon Finale

This week, Sami, Jordana, and Aleen kick things off with two very important discussions: which fast food chicken place is the best, and would you have chosen Big or Aiden in the SATC universe? In other news, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have been all over social media with their respective films’ press tours. Is Blake Lively a “crown straightener,” or was she mean to Leighton Meester in the Gossip Girl days? Speaking of cast feuds, what is going on with Justin Baldoni versus everyone else in It Ends With Us? He’s almost suspiciously emotionally intelligent. Meanwhile, why didn’t Ryan Reynolds acknowledge Matthew Macfadyen in any of his Deadpool & Wolverine posts? And why hasn’t anyone except Aleen noticed? Then, Jordana and Aleen share their thoughts on the House of the Dragon finale (spoiler: Aleen is pissed), and Jordana catches Aleen and Sami up on all the RHONJ finale drama. Our Betch of the Week is Blake, and we’re sending Luis Ruelas to the Caymans for saying he hopes Margaret Joseph’s son suffers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Simone Biles’ Olympic Gold Clap Back, Ballerina Farm Responds, And Carl Radke’s New Venture

This week, Sami, Aleen, and Jordana kick things off with their favorite Olympics moments so far, including the US Women’s gymnastics team’s incredible win and Simone Biles having the last laugh over MyKayla Skinner. Next, we dive into the world of Ballerina Farm, the viral Times article, and trad wife culture in general. Are they that different from any other lifestyle influencer? Onto celeb news, Ben Affleck bought a $20 million mansion while the $60 million one he shares with JLo still languishes on the market. Can they just announce their separation already so we can all move on? In the world of Bravo, Carl Radke announced his new non-alcoholic venue Soft Bar + Cafe, and we have some constructive criticism on the name. Jax Taylor is reportedly getting some help with his mental health, and we’ll be tuning in when season 2 of The Valley comes back to see how he and Brittany are handling their separation. And finally, Bill Maher has a lot of opinions about Taylor and Travis that he shared with none other than the Hawk Tuah girl.

JLo’s Bridgerton Bday, Prince William’s $31 Million Salary, & Presumed Innocent Finale Thoughts

This week, Aleen, Jordana, and Sami jump right into it with the latest Bennifer updates. JLo’s in the Hamptons celebrating her 55th bday with an extravagant Bridgerton-themed bash, while Ben Affleck is on the other side of the country inspiring less-than-flattering headlines about how he might be coping with their alleged separation. In global news, the CrowdStrike outage resulted in mass disruptions for airlines and hospitals, which is a good reminder for Aleen and Sami to get back to work on their bunkers. Next up, the royal family caused a stir with a report that Prince William earned over $30 million last year… no wonder he got such good Taylor Swift seats. And while we’re over in the UK, Matthew Macfayden (aka Tom Wambsgans) did an interview claiming he wasn’t “dishy enough” to play Mr. Darcy, and respectfully, we beg to differ. The Paris Olympics opening ceremony is tomorrow night, and we’ll be tuning in to Celine Dion and Lady Gaga’s La Vie En Rose duet. And finally, Aleen and Jordana share their thoughts on the Presumed Innocent finale. Our Betch of the Week is Matthew Macfayden for being enough for us, and we’re sending the CrowdStrike CEO to the Caymans, but he’s gonna have to suffer through a few canceled flights on his way there.

Maurico’s Mystery Woman, Tom Sandoval Sues Ariana, And Kate Middleton Goes To Wimbledon

This week also marks the release of The Tummy Ache Issue on Betches.com, and Aleen, Jordana, and Sami share some of their embarrassing gastric stories. Onto the celeb headlines: Mauricio Umansky was spotted in Mykonos kissing a mystery blonde… Do you think they went to Nammos? And are any of the remaining RHBOH couples actually real? Speaking of Bravo, Tom Sandoval filed a new lawsuit against Ariana, in a mission to keep his Most Hated Man In America title. In other legal news, Alec Baldwin’s criminal trial has been dismissed, which is great news for the TLC show. Across the pond, Kate Middleton made a rare public appearance at Wimbledon, looking gorgeous in purple. Aleen’s determined to attend next year, and Jordana’s taking lessons so she’s practically tournament ready. And randomly, Ozzy Osbourne has had quite enough of Britney Spears’ dancing videos, not that she cares… although low key we did have to unfollow. Finally, we wrap with a segment called You Deserve A Treat, brought to you by Hill’s Pet Nutrition, to go over some self care goals for the coming week. We’re sending Tom Sandoval to the Caymans yet again, because, in Jordana’s words, that guy stinks. Our Betch of the Week is the Princess of Wales for her much deserved standing O at “the” Wimbeldon.

Lindsay Vs. Dorinda, Gypsy Rose Is Pregnant, And Ellen Is Done With Show Biz

This week, Aleen is back from Greece with a hot take about Mykonos, and an even hotter sunscreen conspiracy theory that she needs Sami and Jordana to weigh in on. Sami’s new book, Democracy In Retrograde, is in high demand in stores *and* at the library (ever heard of it?). In celeb news, Lindsay Hubbard is pregnant and made the announcement in true Lindsay fashion: via a sponsored post. Did Dorinda really spill the news to The Traitors’ producers and get her axed from the show? Speaking of pregnancies, Gypsy Rose Blanchard is expecting a baby with her boyfriend Ken, and we would totally watch their TLC show. Jordana is finally caught up on the Hawk Tuah girl…the American Dream has truly evolved so much in our lifetimes. We’re excited for the sequel to The Devil Wears Prada, and a little frustrated by House of the Dragon season 2 (someone please get Jordana a character guide ASAP). And is Ellen DeGeneres actually leaving fame behind after her Netflix special drops? Finally, we wrap with a segment called You Deserve A Treat, brought to you by Hill’s Pet Nutrition, to go over some self care goals for the coming week. We’re sending Nammos Mykonos to the Caymans for bamboozling Aleen, and our Betch of the Week is the Hawk Tuah girl for signing with UTA. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Celine’s Documentary, Has Bennifer Been Over Since March?, And Lindsay And Carl Head Back To Summer House

This week, Aleen may be in Greece, but Jordana is looking tan, which according to her dermatologist is *not* a compliment. Sami reveals her meteorology skepticism (climate change is real, but weather apps are fake). Jordana and Sami share their thoughts on Celine Dion’s new documentary… JLo’s doc is feeling more insignificant by the day. Speaking of JLo, a new update suggests she and Ben have actually been separated since March, and Ben has been looking to Jennifer Garner for advice on the situation. Listen to find out what we think that advice actually is. Then, Sami explains Charli XCX and her new album Brat to Jordana, and they discuss their Summer House season 9 predictions.

JLo Flies Commercial, Mindy Kaling’s Baby News, And Hugh Grant Comes Out As A Swiftie

Sami’s in LA for VidCon, so Jordana and Aleen are here to discuss all the stories of the week. Jordana kicks things off with a recap of her failed attempt at procuring Eras Tour tix in London. Taylor, if you’re listening, Vivid Seats seriously needs to get their act together. Aleen’s heading to Greece next week for her 5 year wedding anniversary (and 10 year dating anniversary!), and reflects on how long term relationships shape you as a person. Speaking of vacations, JLo was papped flying commercial, which raises the question: how tight *is* money right now in the Bennifer household? If you could have insider info on any celeb’s finances, who would you choose? We’re sending a huge congrats to Mindy Kaling, who surprised everyone with an announcement that her 3rd child was born back in February. How many pre-planned IG posts must she have taken to keep that under wraps? In other celebrity offspring news, Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise’s daughter Suri has dropped her dad’s last name, not long after Shiloh Jolie-Pitt announced plans to do the same. The family drama there might be even more fascinating than JLo’s tax return. Next up, despite his fears about the world tour being ruined, Justin played Madison Square Garden this week to an audience that somehow included Martin Scorsese. And notorious hater Hugh Grant tweeted his love of Taylor Swift after her show at Wembley, where Prince William was also spotting shaking it off - was everyone there except Jordana? Finally, filming has commenced on Freaky Friday 2, and we can’t wait to see it in 2025. Our Silver Star of The Week, brought to you by Heineken, is Prince William for letting loose at the show.

Because their first Halloween in the burbs brought zero trick-or-treaters. They talk about the untimely passing of Friends star Matthew Perry and why it hit everyone so hard. Then onto the Bravo reality TV reckoning – they break down the much-anticipated Vanity Fair article and how Ramona Singer got herself booted from BravoCon in the aftermath (plus a live breaking headline during the recording). They send mazels to Zoe Kravitz and Channing Tatum on their engagement, and spill their hot takes on the (possible) Travis Barker-Kardashian love triangle, IYKYK. Jordana wraps up with her enthusiasm for the Mean Girls Walmart Commercial. Ramona will be sent straight to the Caymans to sell timeshares, no explanation necessary.

KyMau is NoMo, Kourtney & Kim Kompetition, and Speak Now (@ Betches Version) on Travis & Taylor's Taking Phase

Sami and Jordana are here to get into "the pop culture" while Aleen is on maternity leave. They begin the episode by welcoming the man whose name is on everybody's (red) lips — Travis Kelce — to the 34 Club (our slogan: it's not that great). Next they discuss reporting on a certain popular Bravo couple and their new real estate venture in Splitsville. From one messy situation to the next: Pete Davidson has crashed his car again (Is Pete too famous to take an Uber? We report, you decide.) This episode is like a Hollywood human centipede of exes, because the next headline is that Ariana Grande supposedly moved in with new flame Ethan Slater. Another of Pete's exes was reportedly snubbed by Anna Wintour because she was 50 minutes late to Victoria Beckham’s Paris Fashion Week show, but that drama is nothing compared to what's going on inside the family. What's really behind the Kim and Kourtney feud? Finally, @ Betches Producer Holly joins Sami to wrap up with our new segment Speak Now (Betches Version) to spill all the Swiftie updates.

They were all at their friend’s wedding this past weekend, and Aleen did some bragging about a certain Marvel (& Gossip Girl) actor who’s coming on the Betches’ U Up? podcast next week. Tune in for the tea. On the subject of acting, Sami & Aleen dive into all things Euphoria. While they have some mixed opinions about the szn finale (that serenade tho), there's no denying Rue, Cassie, et al. killed the acting game. Then onto a show that’s less strong in that department (but the crazy AF story carries you through): Inventing Anna. Aleen formally retracts all previous statements about hating it, as she did indeed end up watching the whole thing.

Britney’s Huge Book Deal, Julia Haart’s Downfall, & Euphoria’s Unrealistic Play

Last week Jordana and Aleen got drinks (& got blackout), and the week before Jordana and Sami did the same. Enter a *brilliant* new concept: socializing (& drinking) with friends should be considered a hobby. They come to you, dear audience, for name ideas for this revolutionary hobby (send us your recs). And as friends do, the trio gets sidetracked with an impromptu HBO show rating—Sopranos is obvi at the top, but there’s some debate about 2nd & 3rd place. Then onto another star at the top—Ms. Britney Spears & her $15 million book deal (that’s bigger than J.K. Rowling’s btw). Speaking of wizardry, they chat about My Unorthodox Life’s Julia Haart, who has a life so wild it might as well be magic. They discuss her unfortunate downfall before diving into other chaotic TV topics: Summer House’s Amanda and Kyle have hit an all time *cringey* high (that stye tho); the play in Euphoria’s latest ep was v unrealistic; & J Lo and Owen Wilson have no sexual chemistry in Marry Me (but hey, at least we finally got a romcom).

Kanye’s On One (Again), Inventing Anna Is Cray, & Josh Safdie’s Muse

This week, Aleen, Jordana & Sami are in the hot seat (no literally, they’re in person at the studio and it’s warm AF in there). They start off with some *high*ly interesting updates—yes, we’re talking about edibles. For one of our hosts, edibles are like skiing—she forgets that she doesn’t like it so she keeps trying, but it’s always a miss. The brilliant solution? Have a drink instead! Speaking of…um…weed, Snoop Dogg & all of the other nostalgic stars killed that half time show (Aleen was jumping on the couch clapping her hands). Sami wonders, though, if the SuperBowl would consider changing it up and throw in a live @ Betches podcast recording, perhaps? Then onto Kanye’s chaotic—but also really very sad—antics. Pete Davidson dated Hillary Clinton? And that photoshopped Marvel Civil War poster? A lot to unpack here. Onto other chaotic antics: Inventing Anna. While Sami and Aleen couldn’t get through the first episode, Jordana soldiered on—Anna Delvey’s true story is too wild to miss (that Marrakech trip tho). Sami delves into the ins and outs of another wild (and horrific) true story: the Alec Baldwin wrongful death lawsuit. They wrap up the episode chatting about The Gilded Age (including the new, more pathetic version of Miranda Hobbs) and end on a quick recap of Euphoria (Gia, you icon!).

Sami wishes she could pack her chess board (oh so relatable), but luckily Jordana’s bringing a deck of Monopoly Deal—watch out, Nashville!

Then on to wealth that we know is real (cause that’s literally all they post about): the Kardashians. Aleen, Sami, and Jordana dive into the Kim & Kanye (& their kids) saga—which is honestly pretty sad—and then chat about Kylie’s new nameless bébé—born on 2/2/22—and speculate child names. The show wraps up with some much needed debriefs. First up is Euphoria’s latest ep—all in agreement that Zendaya killed that performance—and Sami shares a *mind blowing* theory (yes, said theory was found on Reddit).

RiRi’s Having A Baby, Wordle Still Reigns, & Euphoria’s Mystery Child

And just like that, Sami sadly has Covid. Luckily she’s feeling ok and spills the tea on her bougie (but also very handy) new rapid test machine.

They also pose the q we’ve all been thinking: who in their right mind would wear that outfit during an NYC winter?! Then on to the trio’s true passion: Wordle. Obvi the New York Times listened to last week’s ep and realized they should buy the game—pls don’t blame us. Back to pop culture, they dive into the absurdity of RHONJ cast member Jennifer Aydin’s nose job from Turkey, the absolute chaos that is RHOSLC, and the standout performances from Euphoria’s latest ep (spoiler: more penises). Also, who tf is the mystery child in the family photo anyways?

Wordle Takes Over, Kathy Hilton’s A Bad Aunt, & WTF Is With HBO & Penises

And the Wordle of the day is…Yup, Aleen, Jordana, and Sami are just as obsessed with the online word guessing game as you are. In fact, playing Wordle was Jordana’s highlight of the week, according to Aleen time simply ceases to exist when playing the game, and Sami claims that it’s unifying America right now. It’s just that good. Sami even spills the detes on her mom’s sneaky guessing trick (no spoilers, listen and find out). On to less unifying topics, they dive into Kyle and Amanda’s Summer House drama. Is the relationship’s biggest problem Kyle’s drinking, or that they run a business together? Speaking of Kyles, Sami shares some more Bravo tea. On a Watch What Happens Live, Kathy Hilton just does not know the names of her sister Kyle Richards’ children. No, like it’s literally so rude. Since we’re already thinking of word games, what rhymes with rude? Nude. Jordana sparks the much needed debate on wtf is with all of the nudity and penises on HBO Max? They ofc talk about the episode’s other shortcomings (pun intended): Che and Miranda’s love seems v fake and yes, it’s weird that Lily slept in Carrie’s bed. Then Sean joins to wrap up the show with a game (not Wordle) all about which celeb couples have the biggest age gap. The answers may surprise you. Learn more about your ad choices.

Kanye Is Coming For Pete, Carrie Bradshaw’s Latest Antics, & Yellowjackets Season Finale

Meribel, Courchevel, après ski, oh my! Sami starts off this week’s episode by telling Jordana and Aleen all about her luxurious European ski adventures—yes, matching Fila tracksuits were of course involved. We love a good matching moment, which also inspired Sami’s upcoming nap dress themed birthday party—save the date for April, everyone. Then they attempt to dissect all the Kim and Kanye drama, as Kim apparently didn’t invite Kanye to their daughter Chicago’s fourth birthday party, so Kanye pouted on IG Live and then crashed the party. Honestly Kanye, leave the tantrums to the children. And Jordana asks the million dollar question—does Kanye have a therapist? Next, they all discuss the unfortunate nuances of RHOSLC and Jennie Nguyen’s offensive Facebook that was recently uncovered. Trust us, you’re gonna want to hear about this one, and Sami spills all the Jennie Nguyen Reddit tea. Then onto the Summer House drama between Kyle and Amanda (seriously, what was with that contract?), the weekly And Just Like That debrief (shocker, Carrie gets even more selfish), and Aleen and Jordana cover the Yellowjackets season finale.

MGK & Megan Drank Their Blood, ‘Euphoria’ Teens Are Unhinged, & ‘Don’t Look Up’ Causes A Slight Existential Crisis

Aleen and Jordana start this week’s ep by sharing their tales of partying hard re: their bff’s bachelorette party. Aleen asked Jordana to borrow a bronzer brush and was shocked at it’s, uh, messy state of being. They then dive into discussing another engagement, one with a bit more…blood. Yup, MGK and Megan Fox actually drank each other’s blood after their engagement. Anywho, recovering from how strange that is, they get into a wild relationship of the familial sort—Jamie Lynn Spears has spoken out about her relationship with sister Britney, who has recently unfollowed Jamie on IG—or as Jordana likes to call it, some typical sister shit. The conversation makes a quick tone shift to remember America’s fave TV dad, Bob Saget, who recently passed away at 65. Aleen shares her deep appreciation of Bob’s most popular show, Full House. Then they chat about another show full of families, friends, and the struggles of youth—only this time, it’s jam packed with sex and drugs. You guessed it—Euphoria! A show that gives Jordana and Aleen a lot of pause about children these days, and makes them realize that by comparison they were prude as f*ck in high school—relatable. Speaking of f*cked up TV, they round off the show sharing their mixed reviews of the star-packed, end-of-the-world movie Don’t Look Up.

The conversation then shifts to another woman who seems to always choose the wrong men. Yes, we’re talking about Carrie Bradshaw. They discuss how the latest installment of And Just Like That, we’re sorry to tell you, only gets cringier.

Continuing on the theme of b*tches with drama, they talk about the latest season of RHOC, including the ins and outs of what makes a good RH—Aleen compares it to a game of chess—and how RHOSLC is missing the ball.
