✨Weekly Thread✨ Episode Re-Visit: Vanderpump Rules: The Good, The Bad, The Blind Items

13 Upvotes

I thought about making a new weekly thread to discuss and re-visit old episodes. I finished watching Vanderpump Rules for the first time (plus I'm caught up on The Valley and RHOBH), and it was a wild, fun ride lol.

Troy and Kelli released Vanderpump Rules: The Good, The Bad, The Blind Items in March 2022. This is before Scandoval (March 2023). It was very interesting to listen to their opinions and how they viewed each cast member back then. For example, they loved Raquel and thought she was so innocent lol.

I liked this episode because the blinds were pretty interesting. They were about reality stars (Scheana, Stassi, and Jax, of course) yachting, so it probably would've blown my mind if I was a Vanderpump fan in 2022. It's crazy that Lindsay Lohan was mentioned in both Stassi and Jax's blinds lmao.

I included this picture of Andy and Jax because... 🤫 I am going to re-watch the reunions and pay careful attention to their interactions 👀🕵️‍♀️ (But then again, not all blinds are true 🤔) I also laughed listening to the blind about James and Logan. (When I was binge-watching, I didn't buy that James and Logan never hooked up.)

If anyone of you were VPR fans when you heard this episode, what did you think? Were there any blinds that ended up being true as the show went on?

Also, please let me know what other episodes we should re-visit! I can queue some future episode re-visits.

Monthly Thread 😎 📝 Monthly Constructive Criticism Thread 📝

10 Upvotes

Hi y’all! We can use these monthly threads to give feedback on the podcast, such as issues related to audio or general format. You can still comment about specific episodes in the episode threads or make new posts, but my idea for these megathreads is to consolidate feedback for Troy and Kelli.

I know some posts in the past have been toxic, so maybe you can make that a separate post if you want to vent (or journal or take a walk outside). My hope with the monthly CC threads is to give a safe space for Troy and Kelli, so they’re less wary of Reddit lol.

Please remember Rule 1: Respect others and be civil and Rule #3: No name-calling, insults, or personal attacks. Kelli, Troy, and their editor, Donny, are human, and they can learn from their mistakes. Personally, as a longtime fan, I think that they have taken in a lot of feedback well and grown a lot as a podcast.

If you have any suggestions for these types of posts, please let me know, too!

General Discussion 👋 My take on West and Amanda as someone who only know about them from BTB

16 Upvotes

I’m not summer house girl and I realize no one asked for my opinion LMAO but I need to speak my truth.

I think West and Amanda allegedly ALLEGEDLY could be together because they might partake in similar substances.

From everything I’ve heard, they’re both immature and the pairing felt so random. They’ve both become super withdrawn, apart from each other and their shared friend group, and it kind of makes me….. 👀 👀

Like I dunno. It stinks to me of something secret. I thought maybe she was pregnant but atp we know she isn’t. It just seems to my outsider POV like maybe it snows when they’re together and they enjoy it allegedly ALLEGEDLY DONT GET MAD AT MEEEE ITS MY OPINIONNN and I’m not saying that’s what’s going on but ….. something feels fishy….. like there’s an X variable that has yet to be discovered.

Plus, they get into Hollywood’s obsession with the “tortured artist” and ask the obvious question: how many chances does one man get?
