As RHOC closes out its season, A Therapeutic Dose enters a new era with our inaugural Guest-pisode featuring friend, Momfluencer, and fellow therapy/reality-tv head, BETH CROSBY (@garbagemom)!

Lots of BMs in the UK on this episode of RHOC. In a classic Goldilocks storyline, Emily had too much movement, Shannon didn’t have enough, and Katie’s were juuuust right (thanks to some GI pills – better travelling through chemistry!). Meanwhile, Tamra and Heather – human BMs – were obsessed with trying to turn old gossip into new storylines. So ge…

On this episode of RHOC, all it took was a trip across the pond to fully expose Heather and Tamra for the hideous trolls they are! Shannon delivered all kinds of receipts, Gina served Heather a heaping pile of shut-the-hell-up, and Jen emerged as a whole hero. Time to have a classic See’s Candy (not that hoity-toity crap the Queen ate) and tune int…

As it applies both to American Mammograms and English Tea, this episode of RHOC posed the question, “One lump or two?” Heather encouraged the women to tend to their breast health, then punished them for not reading her mind. Bucket hats and concierge harassment were the hallmarks of the housewives overseas. And Shannon is showing real signs of grow…

Alexis is “done” and that’s fine by us. Shannon showed off some boundaries for her birthday! And Tamra is dee-sgust-eeeng. RHOC also brought us bad British accents, Bandon being the cutest, and Heather being baffled by basic humanity. Time to set down your 700-pound olive branch arrangement and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!…

At a RHOC couples’ dinner party, Tamra got sloshed and made messes everywhere, with everyone. From last week’s Butthole Viewing to this week’s Butt-Dial Broadcasting, she’s managed to run the full gamut of being a gross person. Meanwhile, Heather admonished Terry in a bathroom for admonishing her on camera, Shannon & Archie munched on carrots in be…

In Orange County, Emily poor-shamed Jen, Heather fat-shamed Emily, and Tamra peed on the concrete. We also got a look at kids recovering from divorce and adults evading personal responsibility. RHOC is fully back on brand! So time to “re-collect” yourself, light your peach-jasmine candle, and tune into this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!…

Kirjoittanut A Therapeutic Dose

In Sonoma County, Shannon broke down, Heather & Alexis broken-clock’d, and Ramona almost got “Get Out”-ed! This episode of RHOC had private jets, spider coffee, Dubr-offspring inspired champagne, taco perfume, Johnny J vapors, and more. Time to unwrap a sweater from 10,000 sheets of tissue paper, take an Uber to a mall bar for a clandestine cocktai…

If you’re looking for 6 high-quality minutes of Shane Simpson, this was the episode for you! If you’re looking for any “it” factor, Teddi brought none. While Teddi sank 25% of the episode doing horse-girl cosplay, the other 75% was rich with family traumas - old and new - giving Ramona & Margee 100% of their favorite things to talk about! Time to b…

A return to form for our OC housewives (except Tamra) this week! Everyone (but Tamra) had moments of humanity that made them all (not Tamra) briefly, fleetingly relatable. Ramona and Margee also touch on the DNC (no notes!), Chimp Crazy (crazy!), Christmas-y drag queens, and death. This episode has it ALL! “So satisfying.” Time to grab your pineapp…

This week the Real Housewives of Orange County goes on the road to show us a mountain house, some desert real estate, and how utterly unlikable everyone is! This group has now been officially diagnosed with Intelligence Sepsis. Come for the skincare education, stay for the behavior condemnation. Time to grab a Diet Coke from a fountain (preferable)…

This episode of RHOC offered us a dinner party with every iconic alcoholic/al-anon personality type gathered around one table! Meanwhile, Alexis is on an emotional Rumspringa and Emily stands her filthy shoes on top of her dresses and Ramona & Margee both need a max dose of penicillin just thinking about it! Time to scour the MLS for LA homes NOT f…

Oh, Sandwich-In-A-Sauna Emily, how we miss thee. But fortunately, Katie has dropped right into the vacancy she left in the role of Likeable Housewife! We love her honesty, her vulnerability, her messiness, and… honestly? We just love how few f*cks she gives about Heather Dubrow. Time to call the paparazzi and pose yourself in flattering/unnatural a…

Jen may be inexperienced in downsizing, but she nailed right-sizing Gina with, “As a woman who lived in a Casita, I thought she would understand.” Legendary. Margee’s conspiracy theories go into overdrive in this episode, and Ramona advocates for Tamra’s dog’s right to eat coyote poo! Time to decide if you’d like Chick-fil-A or soup for dinner and …

Holy Chic, hypocrisy abounds in Orange County! Between Gina, Tamra, Alexis, Emily, and Shannon, the truth/reality got real wobbly this week. Meanwhile, Katie continues to deliver, all of the kids continue to be adorable, and Eddie had a rare interlude of enlightenment! But the episode did leave us to contend one burning question… Would rag & bone e…

The Real Housewives of Orange County are back! And between Shredz, Gina’s accents, and a Johnnie J love triangle, the OC proves, once again, it is the coconut rum & Diet Pepsi of Southern California. Meanwhile, Margee is meeting new people, Ramona is getting ready for a birthday, and, say goodbye to our janky pill bottle, the podcast has a brand ne…

In the final installment of the Summer House reunion, Amanda’s depression apparently excuses Kyle’s bad behavior? And Lindsay weaponizes Carl’s addiction AND recovery! Well, Ramona & Margee both have experience being the “designated patient,” so they have plenty to say about how being open about tending to your mental health can sometimes turn you …

Ample amounts of midriffs and backpedaling on stage at the Summer House reunion part one. Lindsay and Carl put on a masterful demonstration of dysfunction. Ciara and Paige put West in the doghouse. And Balloon Guy got put to bed forever, we hope. Because, ew. Time to grab a Loverboy product from the "non-alc space" and tune in for this week’s A The…

Ariana reminded us that, “The only way out is through,” and we did it! We’ve now all made it through Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules! The final installment of the reunion took us from “Eat a d*ck” to eating sandwiches, and along the way Lala informed us that she is the most important mom/person/nanny-needer in the whole wide world and nobody is behav…

The second installment of the Vanderpump Rules reunion brought gaslighting galore from Schwartz and Lala. Meanwhile, Ally’s astrology business is thriving! Jo’s Covid alibi was a failure. Ann gets thrown under the bus! Mya brings out the dog in James. Time to book your seminar session with The Ally Bally Experience, tell Dancing With The Stars you’…

It’s our Demi-Centennial episode! Was the first installment of the Vanderpump Rules reunion celebrating A Therapeutic Dose with all the talk of mental illness/wellness? Either way, it was great to see significant airtime devoted to discussions around anxiety, depression, and OCD! Meanwhile, Tom Sandoval continues to channel Robert Durst, Lala may b…

The season finale of Vanderpump Rules brought about the first DOUBLE dose of A Therapeutic Dose! In this 2-part episode, Ramona & Margee go in on Lala, Schwartz, Sandoval, and Scheana - the champions of The Awful People Olympics. But they also give Katie her flowers for being the No-BS GOAT of the season. And they touch on other points of interest,…

But they also give Katie her flowers for being the No-BS GOAT of the season. And they touch on other points of interest,…

On Vanderpump Rules, Ariana is a boundaries hero and a say-what-you-mean-but-don’t-say-it-mean queen. Her powers of Grey Rock-ing combined with The Tao of Dan result in an invaluable example of a mental health power couple, whether they go the distance or not. Meanwhile, Margee is flush with new LVP conspiracy theories, and Ramona finds herself plu…

Eat sh*t, Shakespeare – Brock Davies is OUR Bard. On this week's Vanderpump Rules, Brock shows up all humble & honest & thoughtful and finally wins over Ramona! Sandoval, Jax, and Schwartz, however, all continue to disappoint in new and nauseating ways. And time to add another member to the supporting cast – the Burbank jet stream! That flight path…

Lala weeps about being a good mom, while being a bad friend. Sandoval is bad at singing, and friendship, and the truth. Scheana is also bad at singing, but better at friendship when she shows up to help Ariana declutter her physical & mental space. Allie & James win Miss Integrity & Mr. Maturity this week! And, after yet another appearance on Vande…

On this week's episode of Vanderpump Rules Lala is extra messy again, leading us to wonder if she’s just a field producer for LVP this season? Either way, this episode confirmed that hot dogs are great, paintball is dumb, and always bleach your roots last! Time to dump Schwartz, call your dad, and tune in to A Therapeutic Dose!…

After watching Vanderpump Rules, Ramona shows up with a tiny decaf and a cry-angle, and Margee enters the space with an ALL CAPS attitude. They both agree that Sandoval’s psychosis is on parade, Ariana’s pain is palpable, and everyone’s discomfort with anger is unfortunate. But the episode brings some important questions into the conversation: What…

Vanderpump Rules gave us a quintessential Team Nobody episode! Katie blames Jo and Scheana for her failed marriage, then sleeps with her ex’s best friend. Scheana blames Jo and Brock for hiding braids and sharing location intel. Sandoval blames Mya for being a dog, Lala blames liars for lying, and Schwartz blames Katie for everything. And the sandw…

On Vanderpump Rules, Tom announces he has to take a sh*t. Then Tom announces he took a sh*t. And Ramona & Margee are reminded Tom IS a piece of sh*t. Tom takes advantage of Ann’s time. Scheana takes advantage of Ariana’s patience. And Jax tests our bullsh*t meter… and, obviously, fails. So, time to storm out of the Belmont, have a quick cry in your…

All that really happened in part three of the Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills reunion was that Kathy came to the stage, Sutton & Garcelle went to the ER, and Andy yawned at Dorit… some more. The third part only proved it could’ve been accomplished in two. But that left plenty of room for Ramona & Margee to eulogize the Arclight, discuss the health…

In the second installment of the Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills reunion, Annemarie was a ghost (what’s new?), we learned PK stopped drinking (but probably won’t stop PK-ing), Sutton insists there’s more to her than cashmere and Santos (namely vodka), and Andy was all of us when he yawned at Dorit. Also, Ramona & Margee share how clothes (dog cost…

Beverly Hills’ resident Unconscious-Karen/Delusional-Fashionista was front and center in the first reunion episode of RHOBH. And while Dorit’s Dumb Dress upstaged most everything/everyone else, we still got some classic Season 13 lesbian speculation and Nurse Anesthe-pissed content here and there. Time to palm your amber/poo-colored crystals, light…

It was dark times at the White Party in the Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills season finale this week. Kyle and Mau are no more. Dorit and PK are on the rocks. And Erika Jayne is tone deaf - in every way. Ramona’s Sutton-colored glasses are starting to slip off. Margee appreciated Garcelle’s reminder that “There’s other Steves in the fish.” And both…

Therapy is our eternal Valentine! And it seems the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills are starting to embrace it, too! We got to see Erika’s insightful therapist offer her guidance, and then watch Erika apply none of it. We got to hear how much FUN Mauricio is having in couples therapy, and then watch Kyle actively detest everything about him. Meanwh…

The Beverly Hills Housewives wrap up their trip to Spain with Sutton saying a heartfelt farewell to her past, Erika taking the express train from Expectation City to Resentment Town, and Ramona & Margee discovering that the origin story of “cringe” is… Dorit! For added entertainment, Ramona’s phone took today’s recording session to show off all the…

Lord Have Merce-y! Grief got us good this week. Most of the Housewives cried in this episode, as do ALL of the hosts of A Therapeutic Dose. From “sleeper ketamine” to birth trauma, from overpriced ancient fans to the most boring paella feast of The Mighty Erudite-y, Ramona & Margee get into it all! So take a Zofran (per Ramona), drink your fluids (…

In an episode where the answer to the question “What are you wearing?” is “I slept for one hour,” everything was a nonsensical mess in this week’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Sutton was doing prop comedy with a man’s ashes in a snack bag. Dorit was speaking cartoon-grade Spanish. And Annemarie just continues her reign as Queen Turd of the wor…

The latest episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was a disjointed mess of Sutton on a fireside Reformer, Erika posing for pics with a pink grandma, and Dorit introducing Paula Abdul introducing Taylor Dane to sing for oral health equality, I guess? Somehow, all of that chaotic content inspired conversation between Ramona & Margee about the de…

Mental health took center stage on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and we are here for all of the honest discussions about PTSD, su*cide, and grief. In other news, Garcelle’s love for her boys is as pure as their indifference to her lasagne. Kyle seems to have officially replaced one Mau(ricio) with another Mo(rgan). And we need more beta-blo…

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills welcome us back from the holiday break with further confirmation that Dorit is an out of touch asshat, that being surrounded by sudden/extreme skinniness is a mind f*ck, and that the ghost of Big Kathy is a bird murderer! Ramona & Margee also take a minute to reminisce about stripping down to secure their SAG ca…

As we head into the holidays, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills wished us a Martyr Christmas and a Victim-y New Year by offering us its version of gold, frankincense, and myrrh - eating disorders, alcoholism, and Sal! The ladies’ attempts at comedy resulted in drama. Rob’s steak tasting resulted in unwelcome ASMR. And Dorit resulted in all things aw…

Maybe it’s the imminence of the holidays? Maybe it’s the charged relationship dynamics between the women of Beverly Hills? Whatever it is, something about this week's RHOBH stirred up a LOT in Ramona & Margee. They’ve had it with everyone putting on a show to try to disguise the truth. Stop trying to make us believe your marriage is unbroken, Kyle,…

What a week for our Real Housewives of Beverly Hills! Denise finds herself in the Upside Down… jacket. Sutton chews the scenery as she smokes a joint. And Kyle smugly jogs and stretches and like ohmygod okay we get it you’re fit now, Kyle. Congratulations and shut up. Also, all the women point fingers, calling out each other’s drinking habits. So, …

On RHOBH, Kyle is officially a 54-year-old 14-year-old as she gets her 6th (and stupidest?) tattoo; Mauricio’s book debut was - figuratively and literally - overshadowed by his teeth; and we learn that Erika’s apology was probably just a PR stunt! Meanwhile, Garcelle continues to win the season! And Denise’s takes to camera were the life of the par…

Between Erika’s sparkly hat-fringe, Garcelle’s burnout pants, and Dorit’s chain link cuffs, we forgot all about Sutton’s stupid pants! But nobody else did. For the Beverly Hills housewives, it seems a 90-minute, semi-nude, male review might actually end friendships. Meanwhile, Sutton and Garcelle ride a gondola, everyone wants Kyle back OFF the wag…
