    #122: Ghost In The Machine

    Ben Mandelker (twitter.com/bsideblog) and Ronnie Karam (trashtalktv.com) reunite in a semi-bonkers late-night episode of WATCH WHAT CRAPPENS. The guys take on the latest episode of "Real Housewives of New York City," from crazy Aviva to annoying Amanda and everything in between. Be on the lookout for an extended Ramona-in-Africa fantasy sequence. Then it's on to "Married to Medicine" where Ben and Ronnie welcome Dr. Heavenly into the fold by giving her a thorough "Crappens" read. Dr. Jackie gets into the mix too with her fat-shaming. Things then wrap up with "Real Housewives of Atlanta?" as Kandi heads into therapy and Kenya says goodbye to dearly departed Velvet :( If that's not enough, the guys go through all of Bravo's new programming slate, analyzing the shows that did (and did not) make the cut. Plus, Ben has a long yarn about meeting Top Chef: DC's Tiffany Derry in New Orleans. Definitely listen to this one! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

    This week on WATCH WHAT CRAPPENS, Ben Mandelker (bsideblog.com) and Ronnie Karam (trashtalktv.com) delve right back into the ongoing mess that is the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" reunion. It's more frustration with the likes of Kim and Brandi and Carlton, and once again, Ben and Ronnie get way too emotionally involved in all of the proceedings. Then it's on to "Real Housewives of New York City" where the ramifications of #bookgate continue to ripple through the heavily Botox'd women of NYC. Also: is Kristen Taekman a whiner or shunned wife? We weigh in. Next up it's a quick detour to Charleston where Ben and Ronnie try to make sense of Southern Charm, and that's followed by more madness from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." Finally, things wrap up with a quick discussion of "Blood, Sweat, and Heels." We've also got plenty of gossip including Lady Gaga's new video, Kristen Doute's latest tantrum, and much more.

    #114: Fights, Finales, Reunions, and Wesley Snipes

    So much happened on Bravo this week that it's a miracle we fit it all in on this week's "Watch What Crappens." We start with the "Vanderpump Rules" finale where seven of our brightest young minds convene to make articulate points about their lives and loves. Just kidding: it was basically just Kristen rolling her eyes and spewing venom. Then it's on to "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" where Ronnie Karam (trashtalktv.com) and Ben Mandelker (bsideblog.com) struggle to understand just what Lisa Vanderpump did to annoy Brandi Glanville so much. Next we take on the Sunday brawls on "Real Housewives of Atlanta" and "Blood, Sweat, and Heels" before voicing our dissatisfaction with the "Top Chef: New Orleans" finale. Finally, things wrap up with the Shahs' visit to Iran. It's a whole lot of content. Come listen! And like our Facebook page: facebook.com/watchwhatcrappens Thanks!
