The Grand Scandoval Finale (VPR Reunion Finale full recap, RHONJ Reunion full recap)
It's time, Bro's. The episode we've all been waiting for. The Vanderpump Reunion Finale is upon us and we have a SUPER SIZED episode breaking down every moment. Before we get to VPR, it was reunion night in Jersey as well. It's still Teresa vs. Melissa for the most part, but we find out that Jen had already had a discussion with Melissa regarding the cheating rumors... Did Tre and Jen set Danielle up? Marge brings up some unsettling rumors about a phone call made by Louis to her son at work. Fuda claims he reached out to her son's birth mother as well. Things are heating up as we prep for the husbands to enter the reunion next week. Scandoval has rocked us all to our core. This episode we see Ariana finally able to say her peace to Raquel. Sandoval remains defensive and says one of the worst things we've ever heard on TV. Raquel has the chance to share her side of things and attempts to apologize to Ariana and is met the wrath of a 9 month affair. At the end of the episode we get the "big reveal" that was teased and Raquel finally speaks out against Tom and paints the picture of an emotional abusive and manipulative relationship... This was an extremely emotional ending to an extremely emotional season. I think we've all earned a vacation. See youse next week.

Sandavol apologizing to Schwartz after the T-shirt comment just shows you how little he cares about about Ariana. He isn’t sorry for any of the hurt he caused her. He’s sorry that he’s destroyed his friendships and no one is on his side.

I think the only reason Rachel cried at the end is because she was scared of how Sandoval is going to react to what she admitted. I don't think it was about their actions at all. Sandoval showed his real self with that T-shirt comment exactly what he has done to Ariana behind closed doors and why she had so many body confidence issues. He’s a mental and emotional abuser and she is going to be so much better off without him.

That was so exposing. 1) he believes that “bad sex” with Ariana excuses his actions or mitigates them and 2) belies any “accident” because he is showing his hatred for Arianna by going for her jugular as only a confident can. So repulsive. So so revealing.

@@izattyu6863 yes she is now his enemy. I think he’s actually incapable of sincerely loving another human. He loves what emotional propping up people can offer him. He’s an emotional vampire. And if the person (any person) isn’t available for him to drain he is DONE with them. The contempt in his eyes when she dared to think about doing the cocktail book without him was truly disgusting and he looked at her with those same eyes throughout this reunion. When they were arguing in the finale- he said “it’s important that you know that” regarding his activities with Roachel the next day but only because it would hurt her. He isn’t willing to give her peace of mind by being honest about the affair though. She can only supply his adoration or adoration by proxy of provoking jealousy and hurt. And nothing outlines that more than when he said “all she had to to was follow me” he wanted to get high of ariana being jealous Enough to follow him and devastated enough to beg him to stay. I’m so glad she didn’t give him a bar of it!

There are so many emotions when one has finally told the truth. Who made you the Bravo expert. Raquel has been thru enough and it seems Ariana is really the hateful evil one. Tom was correct about her. You can’t play house and pretend everything is perfect. Example: kim&kroy Phaedra&Apollo

I love that you guys watch these shows and your take on it! It is amazing!
Melissa addressed Dolores's :you're going down" comment on her podcast. She said what Dolores meant is now you're in trouble because Jacqueline is going to come after you now for spilling that info. If you're familiar with the history on this show. Jacqueline is a keyboard warrior she has always loved getting into fights with cast members on social media or going on podcasts and talking smack. The woman has nothing better to do so she used to go after people. She stayed quiet for awhile and now it looks like she reappeared this year again looking for attention. She's been on several podcasts in the last couple of months talking bad about Melissa.
Raquel was more upset about James’s comment that Ally was an 🆙 grade from Raquel than any other thing said!

Rachel only felt seen and heard because Sandavol would say the buzz phrase “I believe in you.” When she was questioning him about their relationship, all he had to say was that to get her to shut up.
SO happy you have moved the camera forward so we can see your expressions, etc!

That was my thoughts as well. I think she was crying because Sandoval didn't want her revealing this & she was deviating from the script. But she just couldn't help herself. She wanted to hurt Ariana too much in that moment.
When Tom said that I wanted to jump through the tv feet first!
Hey Brav Bros!!! Amazing recap as always !! I would like to add a thought of mine regarding Scandoval. I feel like the moment where Ariana wishes raquel the worst things that happen to a person comes from the fact that this is what happened to her. She lost her grandma and who should have been her support system weeks later in the worst possible way. On another note I agree that the rest of the cast needs to chill out but Ariana is entitled to her feelings and we cannot fault her, the feelings are raw, she discovered the affair 3 weeks prior, I don't think she could have processed it in so little time. People need to understand that what we are seeing is the direct aftermath of an affair and it's gonna get worse before it gets better. Asking Ariana to mind the feelings of somone who deceived her so much is insane.

As someone who has watched RHOC from the beginning, I would love to see your take on Tamera.❤ Plus, I just love your pods, so I want your takes on everything. Never too much BravBros #ringthebell #gobirds
I like the new intro!
Well, Fellas, I pretty much adore you. I’m openly volunteering for your crazy aunt status here. I almost always agree with your analysis and reactions, but even when I don’t I enjoy your delivery, your humor, and your brohood. I spend a lot of time in my car listening to you and giggling like a lunatic. I listen to several other podcasts, but your Auntie’s favorite. Yes, I am a dork. Thank you for seeing through Teresa! I’m praying to the bravo gods that she’s replaced by Jen Fessler. I think we’re watching Tre melt down in real time as her defenders step away from her and watch her drown in her bs. And I really appreciate your take on part 3 of the reunion. I’m so irritated by people saying Raquel was bullied by Arianna. It was so disturbing to watch Raquel’s lack of emotion. I would argue she only cried over pageants and then when she admitted more truth at the end. She only cried then because she’s afraid Tom will dump her for confessing. Just wow. Do you believe she’s finally told the whole truth? Because I don’t. I think their affair has been going on longer. Not that it matters now I guess. Anyway, please keep up the great work.
Great recaps.. schwartz was on jax and Britney's podcast. I wish they would have addressed more that went on during the season..like sandoval attacking katies mom terri and her brother stepping in and schwartz hiding
Great show
Ariana said in an interview she told the rest of the cast she didn’t want to directly speak to either of them. I think that’s part of the reason Lala and James kept jumping in
Thank you for acknowledging other women/people out there who might do the same and have sex with their shirt on. You’re so aware and sweet and considerate 🙏🤍 My bff has a huge scar on her chest from an open heart surgery and she hasn’t had sex without a shirt on for a few years now. She’s still working on it. She doesn’t watch Vanderpump luckily but I can’t imagine the kind of spiral this kind of comment would throw her in. I’m crying as I’m typing this. A*hole! F*ck him! May no other woman take her shirt off for him ever again! 🤬

“Lunatics do not ever expect ramifications for their actions” 😂😂
Advertisers might use Sandoval if he is willing to mk fun of himself. Maybe running shoes and a shot of sandivol running for his life from a wild crowd chasing him with pitchforks
Nope i don't feel sorry or bad for Rachel at all, as she said she started going to Tom and telling him ger personal info, i do believe she went after Tom, she let him know she was down! After the fact he probably was pulling the strings on alot of the lies and stories but they had to have plotted about planned this stuff for months and months and im sure they were having great times and lot's of laughs about it! Sick
Would love to hear your take on Scheana’s interview with Nema Vand and his conversations with Raquel re: the Mexico 🇲🇽 trip.
Please cover RHOC! Loving you both!
The Gorgas & Fudas have known each other awhile , Their sons play baseball together. Loui may have gone after them because of that
I have to agree with you when, watching the last six minutes, you can see she was manipulated by Sandoval, but she was also still lying and laughing. It was only the last 30 seconds where she had a real cry, so I wasn’t feeling that bad for her although I am happy that she is getting some help with her mental and emotional problems as that is clearly needed for this girl.
Tom definitely coached Raquel while the show was filming and a bit after, but by the time the reunion and her final interview was shot Raquel had a whole PR Crisis Team behind her coaching her too. Her sudden willingness to go air out Tom's lies was probably advised by them. I don't think for a second it came out of guilty or a change of heart. She was still willing to lie on that chair when it came to St. Louis.
im very exhausted too. Scandoval news keeps coming... 🤕
Tom seems to have some crazy pent up resentment towards Ariana. And Raquel seems to think this is just a show in some weird way, no clue of the damage she has done. It’s so bizarre! (I think the producers name is Jeremiah)
I didn’t see anything wrong with Lisa talking about her restaurant. She has a new show coming out. VPR is literally her name, and she’s EP
Ariana, 'I do it in T shirts' get what ever you can if for no other reason to throw snakevols words back at him.the more money you make the more he BOILS
I think you might be getting the timeline wrong. Lala knew about Oliver like a week AFTER Vegas, not before, when is wife reached out to her. Apparently, Rachel and Tom didn’t start hooking up until AFTER Havasu, so technically that was not driving her panic attack. She said in the reunion she was so very drunk the night before the car ride, apparently she was super sick that whole ride and the girls stopped a bunch to take care of her. They cleaned her up at a dinner and let her rest in booth. Think less panic and more hungover but the girls covered with the panic attack story. Lastly, Lala said on her podcast production prompted them to rehash the night before for Charlie at the restaurant, Raquel knew the story was coming. And if you can’t take a friend making fun of something as innocuous galaxy lights, than you don’t have think enough skin to have friends. Like really, they were not attacking her person, calling them home wrecker, calling the tequila Katie every chance they get frustrated.
Well there Brand was a package deal normally like when she got that book all alone Sandoval went off saying he should've been asked to do it not her because he comes up with more drinks but the book was meant just for Ariana specifically ĺ for a reason but she let Tom do it with her when it would've been great with just her like it was meant for. Now her getting all these deals has to be driving Tom crazy. Like he may be offered something from a slimy company but nothing like Ariana has been offered. Tom is going insane and Ariana should take everything she's offered unless it's something she doesn't believe in especially after that t shirt comment Tom made he was freaking out because he couldn't get Rachel alone so Rachel figured out she wasn't special and was just helping Tom's head get bigger and bigger he's been with other women already and we know one was Billie. Tom is so bitter over everything Ariana is receiving its making him go insane because he doesn't get a penny from it and He is in the whole so bad it's going to take him awhile to get back on track. That's what that's all about.k😮
I’d bet Sandaval’s been a chronic cheater and compulsive liar his whole life. He cannot be trusted; he is a master manipulator.
Love to see a couple of real men critique these crazy shows!!
Marge said she was sorry for bringing up the affair but she's right not to take responsibility for Olivia. Olivia had witnessed their fights, Jen's in unhappiness, her complaints, Bill always in the pool house, the tension. There obviously have been marital issues way before the affair came to light. Olivia is also on social media including TikTok which Jen doesn't seem to monitor so she has access to the series and what Jen says about Bill.
Ty. The constant name calling without content drives me nuts. I don't think they even actually know why they hate each other anymore. They keep making threats and innuendos. Always looking to dig dirt on each other. It's gone to such a toxic place. I wish Dolores would open her mouth more. All of them tip toe around teresa. I don't like that they can't speak freely.
I disagree I'm glad Melissa stood up to Tre. It's been years of Tre doing the same thing to her and she always stood down. She made the reunion standing up for herself. Part 2 reunion wS the bomb because of Melissa.

Teresa literally sat there on camera and edited her phone contacts. She changed Louie's name to Margaret on her phone and texted Louie to call her, then tried to show Margaret called her twice while she was sitting there but we all know it was actually Louie calling her from backstage. She's so transparently dumb! I think Dolores meant Melissa is going to regret throwing Jaqueline under the bus by showing her text.

Imagine how many women Sandaval’s ruined and manipulated. Awful.
You closed with Rachel’s comment about them hooking up while Ariana was at her Grandmother’s funeral but pay attention to the words she use. She said that Tom told her they had to lie because it would be a bad look if she was f’ing someone’s boyfriend while they were away at a funeral. He didn’t say WE would look bad. It was all put on her & it was all made out like the lies were just protecting her. She also disclosed things where he said they had to lie to not hurt Ariana more so what a caring guy. Both examples are very subtle but powerful manipulation & both paint him as the good guy in the eyes of the person he is manipulating. THAT is who Sandavol is & who he always has been. Raquel was very manipulated & you can see his influence through many of her words & deeds throughout the season but she also knew right from wrong & at some point made a conscious choice to move forward all while drawing ever closer to Ariana.
Re Marge's son: Companies often record phonecalls. I've worked for companies that do that and they the caller upfront that the call may be recorded. They could easily pull that call and transcribe it if that's the case
Everyone is forgetting what Schwartz said on WWHL. He said Sandoval is obsessed with Rachel. All he cares about is Rachel. Its his ADHD. Remember? I think Sandoval was love bombing Rachel. I think HE’s more “in love” (as narcissists can be) than she is.
It was def before the engagement! The biggest question was, why did Sandoval pay thousands for her engagement for Rachella!? And she broke it off with James expecting Sandoval to break it off too 🤷🏼♀️
You have to get into OC!! if you want drama, a couple seasons ago THE housewives OG herself Vicki dated a man who faked cancer. The early seasons are so good, I can’t even imagine what you guys would say about the true original male housewife Slade Smiley

Well, Lala was 100% right.
Agree that we can’t over-simplify Rachel’s motivations. It’s very complicated and she has a mental disorder. Selfishness doesn’t describe all the depravity and betrayal. It’s antisocial chaotic promiscuous reckless behavior that has to be explained in The DSM.
I thought Lala found out AFTER Vegas but before it broke? She just didn’t give Rachel a heads up after the fact and let her continue to plan dates with him. And after how rachel talked to Lala when exiting the trip, Lala didn’t owe her shit

Tre better sleep with one eye open. She married a time bomb
Rachel had zero emotion when everybody was going after her. It was strange
Remember at the table in Las Vegas, Lala said she thinks Oliver is married with kids, and LVP said no I think they’re separated & getting a divorce, Lala couldn’t break the 4th wall n say I spoke to his wife and she had a different story, n she also wasn’t sure which story was true bcuz Lala also said she believed Oliver bcuz he said they were separated knowing he was on camera so she didn’t think he’d straight out lie on national TV knowing his wife would eventually see it, all of that is on Raquel bcuz she heard Lala say I think he’s married and that’s up to her to decide if she should be cautious or not

I haven't watched Bravo in close to 10 years until last night. Back then, Tom was with Kristen who i think was cheating with Kennedy, while Tom ran around with Ariana..lol. It was my first time seeing Rachel and it didn't take long for me not to like her. I didn't know that Katie and Schwartz split, or that Jax and his wife weren't on it anymore. I don't care what kind of problems people have, Tom should have broken up with Ariana before going near Rachel. Especially since it's on national tv. I don't know who is worse, Tom or Rachel. ( Calling her Rachel on purpose). I guess i'd say Tom.Nine years, buying a house together? I hate the mustache. I think i am kind of caught up.

I love shooters spunk. The way he goes in on Sandoval gets me fired up and (although inappropriate) makes me wana beat ass. I feel like he’d give good speeches before a hockey game. (Stanley cup finals ay 🤙🏻)
When he said we don’t live ours lives by logic I thought for someone was going to ask do you live your life in decency?
By now part 3 of Jersey has aired, and I can't wait to get your opinions. With that being said, I am a day 1 RHNOJ fan. I have been ride or die for Teresa. We both gave birth in 2011. I have cried on many episodes. Teresa has been one of my strongest parasocial relationships. After watching the reunion, my soul was unsettled. I was hoping and praying that Joe and Melissa would say fuck the show, we can't leave Teresa and those girls with that abusive fraudulent albatross freakshow Louis. He is a complete nutcase. I believe he abused those women and I cannot believe Gabriella is not speaking out against this crazy man. Gia will say or do anything to please her mother with her fake self-righteous disposition, but Gabriella has principles. Teresa's marriage to Joe Guidice was a cakewalk compared to being married to Louis the Lunatic. Bravo I will not be watching next season if Louis appears on the show. The only show I would watch involving Louis is a live action, survivoresque search and rescue mission to save Teresa, starring Joe Gorga, Melissa, Frank Catania and Brittany, Delores and Pauly. Or a Court TV style show with Louis on trial. representing himself. Louis the lunatic will definitely hide the body and join the search party. #saveTeresa

I say this as someone with experience working with adults with IDD, Raquel is on the spectrum. I believe she was absolutely manipulated & is emotionally damaged & abused by this man & her upbringing. All these things aren’t excuses for her behavior but they do explain… a lot.

OMG, The word salad rose 🤣. I got to say… I really enjoy you guys. Sometimes I’m ranting at you… But that’s all right because the other half of the time I’m behind your opinion 1000%. I don’t know if you guys should watch OC, I think it really needs some of the history and background context. … We’re invested in some of those relationships- I can’t imagine understanding how people like Vicky for example, without watching the show evolve, and just appreciating her for the whack job she is. But OC drama will not match up to most of the other shows.
Lot of great insights and healing rants, but hearing a a dude say "fuck your Tiktok" just made me beam. Thanks bros.
