Welcome back, Trash Box listeners! SO. After a brief hiatus, I have returned with a solo episode to discuss the last month in Orange County (omg Noella), Miami (omg Alexia), and Salt Lake City (omg EVERYONE). But before we dive into the coverage, I have a little announcement: I'm taking a break 'til spring. Life has gotten extra busy for me this wi…

This week on Trash Box I welcome stand up comedian Dan Udy, who has a PhD in reality TV! Actually! I initially thought he was joking when he told me, but I discover the fantastic truth a third of the way into this episode. So get ready for an extremely intellectual discussion about The Real Housewives. First up is the Nicki Minaj reunion, which was…

This week drag/comedy sensation Viza DeCline has returned to dish on the middle-aged narcissists of the Bravo-verse. After some talk of horoscopes, ghosts, and psychics, we jump into the surprisingly entertaining Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip #RHUGT. Guess what’s not a surprise! Ramona being the worst! Duh! Then it’s onto this amazing season…

IT'S HERE! And because two "real guests" fell through, I am joined by my lovely boyfriend, Eli Weinstein, to talk Jen Shah's arrest and Potomac reunion Part II (Real Housewives Ultimate Girl's Trip isn't available yet in Canada). It actually works out, cuz I have no problem talking over him or telling him his opinions are wrong :-) Anywho, enjoy ou…

Comedian and friend Alessandra Vite is back to talk about The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City! Cuz Salt Lake City is the only Housewives city she watches! I do solo coverage of the first part of the Potomac reunion immediately after. But yeah... Salt Lake City. WOW. What an episode. Lisa Barlow is pretty damn lucky that Mary Cosby and Jen Shah ar…

I haven't laughed this hard in some time. That's all thanks to this week's hilarious guest, Tamara Shevon. Catch her debut solo stand-up album "Purse Wine," out Friday November 12, and follow @teemair on Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram. This week we start with Part 4 of the Beverly Hills reunion. Um... was that necessary? And why are we applauding E…

Welcome to another week of Trash Box! Comedian/friend Tom Hearn is back back back, and guess what? HE FINALLY WATCHED POTOMAC. Phew! What a relief, I was really starting to resent him. So! This week we're diving into Potomac's 2-day drama-packed trip from hell, the latest Salt Lake City (which Tom is fuzzy on because he watched most of it drunk), a…

This week I'm joined by actress/writer Rachel Mutombo! Fun facts about Rachel: she's loves Mary Cosby, she thinks Erika is a liar, and she's broken enough bones in her life to know that doctors gave Gizelle the *walking boot*, therefore Ms. Bryant can haul her butt down some stairs to a shared bathroom. This week we cover the latest Potomac, the se…

This week I welcome back stunning drag superstar Selena Vyle! After airing our grievances (I had a showdown with the guy delivering my new bed frame, a train employee stupidly tried to fuck with Selena), we dive into Part 1 of the Beverly Hills reunion. Um... is Erika OK? Also, Team Garcelle and Sutton, obviously. And Lisa Rinna can get fucked, BOO…

Trash Box is back after a week hiatus (it was a family wedding, give me a goddamn break!), and I missed you. I did. Three really strong eps of Housewives to recap/snark on this week, but first I talk a bit about the new LA Times interview with Garcelle, Sutton, and Crystal. Worth a read, very entertaining! First up is the finale of Beverly Hills, w…

This week I’m joined by my buddy/repeat guest, zee hilarious Tom Hearn. And guess what? We get suuuper worked up about this week's Beverly Hills and Salt Lake City. Cuz Tommy has a wee bit of a temper (see: his very real Twitter feud with Iggy Azalea). Which means the Fox Force Five gaslighting Garcelle, Erika’s constant lies, and Jen Shah’s ice ca…

Hello hello, and welcome to the latest episode of Trash Box! On this solo ep I cover the RHONY reunion cancelled (eyeroll emoji), the Salt Lake premiere (party hat emoji), Beverly Hills (bride emoji?), and Potomac (wide forehead emoji). I'm on Taria S. Faison's What Else Is Going On podcast this week to cover Salt Lake, so give that a listen, and n…

It's a solo Trash Box ep! I recorded this mere minutes after I watched this week's Beverly Hills, so my emotions are FRESH. And most of the emotions are rage, fury, anger. Erika is evil! Lisa was not drunk! Kyle needs to pick a lane! Oy. I gotta take a breath. Maybe it's time to go back to therapy? Before we dive into #RHOBH, I publicly eat shit an…

This week I am so lucky to be joined by a fellow Housewives podcaster, Taria S. Faison. Taria is the host of What Else is Going On? @weigopodcast. In this very special super-sized episode we recap this week’s Bravo offerings and dive into a variety of topics, including (but not limited to): -Internet trolls, racists, and Housewives fans -how these …

Trash Box has returned from vacay to report on the news of the day! This week I'm joined by my friend, proud Housewives obsessive Natalie Metcalfe, an actress/writer/comedian known for her sketch duo Christian & Nat and her work with the Second City, Toronto. First up is the last Real Housewives of Potomac, which was an instant classic and the best…

Fuck off, Lisa Rinna. Fuck off, Erika. Fuck off, Ramona. Welcome to this week's sorta-solo episode of Trash Box. First we need to talk about the Salt Lake City trailer: WOW. They're really going there with Jen Shah, thank Christ! Speaking of fraudsters... RHOBH! Erika Jayne's bullshit tears and Lisa Rinna coming for Garcelle is rage-inducing televi…

Last September Nicky Nasrallah (A.K.A. drag sin-sation Selena Vyle) made the terrifying choice to watch every single Housewives show and episode in the order of when they aired. They have viewed 64 seasons in less than one year. And, somehow, they lived to tell the tale. First up Selena shares their Top 3 Hottest Househusbands (mystery #1 is who th…

On this week's episode Emily is joined by Trash Box superfan (lol) Amanda Pereira, actress/comedian/host of The Liquid Courage Podcast. Get ready for an extremely passionate episode. Emotions run high and opinions run wild. First up is RHONY, where the consensus is egomaniacs Ramona and Lu need to get packin'. Then, even though there was no new Bev…

Welcome to this special solo episode of Trash Box! Emily is back from her family cottage trip where there was no WiFi and no Housewives on TV (GASP). But she's caught up on what she's missed and is here to share her very important opinions. First up is New York, which actually isn't the worst this week (thank you Bershan!). Does Sonja have an alcoh…

It's a big week, folks! The much anticipated Potomac premiere, a RHONY episode where something actually happens (kudos, Bershan), and Erika's lawsuits blow up on Beverly Hills. Joining us is Nik from The Real Housewives Out of Context (@rhoutofcontext), a fantastic meme/fan account that you can find on Instagram and Twitter. Also, he's Emily's onli…

This week Emily is joined by Canada's most critically ignored drag superstar, THEE Viza DeCline. We're talkin' New York City, Beverly Hills, and anxiously counting down to the premiere of Potomac this Sunday. First up is RHONY: Scorpio Ramona is a nightmare, LuAnn goes blue, Viza thinks Bershawn deserves a promotion, and how do you solve a problem …

This week Trash Box welcomes back the high-larious Canadian Comedy Award-winning actor/comedian Tom Hearn. After shooting the shit about pandemic stress and Below Deck, it's time for a Beverly Hills deep dive. Emily and Tom discuss the fall of Erika Jayne (Tom's former favourite Housewife), the gift that is Kathy Hilton, the never ending Crystal vs…

Welcome to another week of Trash Box and Real Housewives dramatics. In this episode Emily is joined by the hilarious comedian/TV writer/fitness wench Gillian Bartolucci, who's here to discuss the big Erika Jayne ep of Beverly Hills. What is true? What is lies? Is Bravo really selling Ms. Jayne as a victim? Will anything be definitively proven this …

On this week's Trash Box we have a surprise twist: No Marshall Lorenzo, due to scheduling issues. Just Emily Richardson, doing her best not to talk herself into madness. Don't worry! He'll be back next week. First Emily covers the exciting new Orange County casting news, then dives into the Erika Jayne doc; we touched on it last week, but now's the…

Hello hello lovelies! Time for another award-winning (don’t look that up) episode of Trash Box! This week we’re covering NYC, Beverly Hills, and then WHOA! We got a fancy screener for the upcoming Hulu/ABC Erika Jayne/Tom Girardi documentary “The Housewife and the Hustler” (premieres Monday) and we talk a bit about it... sans spoilies. First up is …

Aaaaand we're back from our week off with good news and bad... the good? Emily's hand is healing! The bad? Marshall's dead tooth shattered on a piece of bacon. Help us, it's the last few minutes of Death Becomes Her over here! But no matter, we shall soldier on. After brief coverage of the Potomac trailer and New Jersey's reunion finale from last w…

Hey all! Emily pulled a Dorinda in Mexico: she stabbed her hand. Except she was sober (actually) and instead of a knife at the dinner table it was a shard from a glass that smashed while she was taking a bath. The doctor says nobody should ever take any glassware into the tub, so let this be a lesson to us all! Plastic cups from here on out. A few …

Welcome back Beverly Hills! Things seem to be off to a promising start with the introduction of kooky Kathy Hilton DDT and the snobby Crystal Kung Minkhoff. Plus: our beloved Sutton gets her diamond, Garcelle has come to play, Lisa Rinna's on another bullshit apology tour, Kyle got a youthful nose job, Dorit's son Jagger is THE MOMENT, and Erica is…

This week on Trash Box we say goodbye to Atlanta (we'll miss you ladies!) and Dallas (don't let the door hit y'all on the way out!). But first up it's our favourite franchise, New York, where Sonja's being Sonja, Lu's being Lu, and Ramona's on her best behaviour. Alas, Ramona's very best behaviour is still startlingly rude. Just ask the help. Next …

It's here. Finally. The RHONY premiere! We jump right in and cover it all: new Housewife Eboni K. Williams (strong start!), LuAnn's sobriety, Leah's nose job, Ramona's terrible personality, and Sonja somehow finding herself back inside that cursed Upper East Side townhouse. Sigh. We missed our New York girls! Welcome back, you utter fools. Then it'…

This week Emily and Marshall welcome a very special guest: David Yontef, host of the pop culture podcast Behind the Velvet Rope and real-life friend to many real Real Housewives! Obviously we do our darndest to suckle as much juicy intel as we can from David's brain, and he dishes on who's a sweetie, who's a diva, and who's a "horrific, vile, disgu…

Welcome to our 30th episode of Trash Box! Today we kick things off with Atlanta, and ask the important questions: Why does Kenya's 2-year-old daughter have her own phone? Why doesn't LaToya doesn't have a peach? Why the fuck is Drew playing her recording of Prophet Lott on a boom box? And is Shereé returning next season? Then we switch over to Dall…

Welcome to another week of Housewives fuckery! We open this ep with our thoughts on the Beverly Hills trailer. Obviously we're pro-Sutton/anti-Erica. This is the only correct opinion. In our regular recaps we open with New Jersey, where a psychic medium has a producer in her ear and Jennifer deals with generational trauma. Then we head to Dallas wh…

And we're back! Please note that, from now on, new eps will be released late late Friday nights/early Saturday mornings Toronto-time (EST?). Cuz our schedules have changed. Anywho! Here we go! We dive right into it this week. First up is a very special New Jersey, which briefly morphed into Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf starring Melissa and Joe Go…

JEN SHAH ARRESTED FOR FRAUD. Obviously we cover this dramatic breaking news that had us doing Pikachu meme face at our phones. But first, we must discuss Emily going viral on TikTok, and how her sudden brush with fame has immediately gone to her head. But then we tackle Jen, who is most definitely screwed. Lisa does not love that. After that we cov…

Holy shit, the RHONY trailer is here! And it has everything: LuAnn's new boyfriend Garth (Garf?), barenaked titties, a wasted Sonja, and some extremely frustrating racism from, you guessed it, Ramona "I DON'T HAVE THE VIRUS" Singer. Aye yai yaiii. We can't wait to cover it cum May 4th, cuz even a pandemic season of New York is still the best comedy…

Yes, obviously this episode's title is about Teresa. Anywho! We begin this week's Trash Box with shocking news — poor Tinsley got dumped by Scott the Coupon Bitch. Sigh. Evil (AKA Dorinda and rich, middle-aged bachelors from Chicago) won. After that it's our recap of New Jersey, where Jackie still refuses to film with dumb dumb Teresa, Frank and Jo…

It's Dallas and New Jersey time! If you're here for Atlanta, check out our last ep with guest Coko Galore (who binged all 13 seasons in one month). If you're like, "Nooo, I'm here for the ladies of the lakes, both Austin and George", then you, madam, are in the right place. First up, the Dallas sorority girls, who can’t stop bullying poor Tiffany. …

Today we welcome funny/talented/hardworking Coko Galore, who may have just broken a world record: she binged all 13 seasons (276 episodes!) of The Real Housewives of Atlanta in ONE MONTH. And she'd never seen any Housewives before. An inspiration to Bravoholics the world over. FYI this ep is allll RHOA. We discuss the most recent ep, but mainly dee…

Yesterday New Zealand was hit with two earthquakes and a tsunami warning. Lucky for us, Trash Box's Marshall Lorenzo slept through everything and is here to share his very important thoughts on Real Housewives of Atlanta, Dallas, and New Jersey. A true Kiwi hero! On Atlanta, we're settling in to what's surely going to be our main season-long storyl…

The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 1 is dunzo, and we're honouring its ending with a very special podcast episode featuring comedians Alessandra Vite and Erica Gellert. The Salt Lake City Season 1 Extravaganza Retrospective™ has it all: a recap of the reunion finale, a Mary Cosby psychoanalysis, a heated discussion about the stigma of sme…

He's here... he's hung... he's... BOLO. Finally! We passionately discuss the much anticipated Atlanta sex party episode and the latest Jersey. For Salt Lake City coverage check back late Friday for our Reunion Part III/Season 1 retrospective/trivia extravaganza episode with guest comedians Erica Gellert and Alessandra Vite. But back to Atlanta. It'…

Emily and Marshall are back for the second new Trash Box of the week. And boy oh boy, are we excited to discuss both the New Jersey premiere and Salt Lake City reunion. These eps were brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, etc. etc. etc. Makin' Dallas look like an episode of Keeping Up With The K…

On the first of two new Trash Box eps this week we cover the latest Atlanta and Dallas. Tune in Friday morn for our New Jersey and Salt Lake City coverage. So! On this week’s Atlanta poor Kenya (the only mother to ever exist) takes bad hostessing to a brand new level. Like, even worse than Tiffany "Cricket Pizza" Moon. The ladies are sick of Kenya'…

Time to analyze/judge/yack/laugh about this week in Housewives. We finally figured out why there was no new Atlanta this week; the SUPERBOWL! Who said this wasn't an investigative detective-type podcast? On Part One of the Salt Lake City reunion, the ladies have gathered to dig up year-old beefs, present Andy with poorly photocopied printouts, and …

Sigh. These women. God bless these wonderful, wealthy, weirdo narcissists and all their bullshit. On Atlanta the Charleston trip finally kicks things into high gear. Fuck Auntie Kenya's organized fun, the Nieces just wanna drink and dance! Meanwhile, LaToya buys a wig and Drew autographs a headshot. Shady golf claps all around. Over on the finale o…

Aaaand we're back! A day late and many dollars and brain cells short. On this week's episode, an exhausted Emily and sun-kissed Marshall discuss the latest offerings out of Salt Lake, Atlanta, and Dallas. On SLC, the ladies take Vegas. And by "take Vegas" we mean they get raged at by Jen Shah and meet an immediately iconic hypnotist named Kimberly …

Marshall and Emily meld their minds once again (a la the two-headed monster that is Meredith/Lisa) to bring you a brand new episode of Trash Box! This week it's our usual fare: Dallas, then Salt Lake, then Atlanta. On Dallas, Kam reminds us who she is (a stupid idiot), and our two-episode-long Kam-standom screeches to a halt. Meanwhile, Marshall ca…

Ahhhh. Velcome back. Vee are indeeeed living in zee golden age of television. This week we start by watching the New Jersey trailer. Together. During the podcast recording. It's a mess, and the only real takeaway is that Dolores Catania is a Trump supporter and we're in for a wild season. Then it's time to check in with our lovely Georgia peaches o…

Hello, hello, hello! Trash Box is proud to present 51 minutes of fluff you can use to briefly escape from the sick, sad world. Sigh. In this ep we discuss the latest Salt Lake and Atlanta. If you're looking for the Dallas premiere, check out Episode 11. First up is Salt Lake City, and this shit’s an instant classic, all thanks to a shit-stirring/sh…
