Stassi has returned to our screens (again), still without an ounce of genuine remorse or accountability to show us that age does not equate to maturity. We've graduated from being the 20-something year old controlling, abusive friend....to a controlling, detached, perhaps abusive wife and mother. 'House of Stassi' merely removes the thin veil between her Instagram persona and the real Stassi.

Today's episode will be a mix of all of the pop culture/reality tv tea that you may have missed from this week and a review of the first two episodes of 'House of Stassi'.

I would like to push back on the experts (and other cast members) feedback that Mecca is performing for Belle Jolie with the sentiment that...each of them is performing in some aspect. This episode Janae and I will be talking about each of the couples and what they shared in the first group therapy session as well as our overall thoughts for the season. If you missed our recap of episodes 7-8 make sure you go back and listen!

Courtney really sat there in front of Nick and said something like "you don't have to be the best person when you look like Adam" ......while he was wearing a pheasant fedora. In today's episode, my good friend Janae and I will be taking you through episodes 7 & 8 of MAFS S20. Make sure you come back for our next episode, a 30-minute recap of episode!

⚠️ Trigger Warning: The final portion of this episode includes discussion of domestic violence while reflecting on The Ultimatum. Please take care while listening, and feel free to skip that section if those topics may be distressing.

I'm back from vacation and ready to get you caught up on everything that had my group chats blowing up while I was away. We are talking plane movies, The Valley Halloween episode and Luke showing his true colors, Taylor & Clarke officially calling it quits, my thoughts on Parts 1& 2 of the 'In The City' Reunion and Amanda's "performance", and finally my honest reflections on The Ultimatum Season 4, including conversations that have continued after the finale in podcast interviews and on social media.

As always, these are my opinions and I'd love to hear yours in the comments. What storyline did you agree with me on, and where do you think I completely missed the mark?
