A Place Called Hope: Part 1 (Lukas Thimm on RHONY, RHUGT, RHOSLC, and more)

Inspired by Jessel's Passover hostess gift, Sarah also removes a vowel from "macaroon" and heads to her fave UES macaron sweets shop, ready for a pre-Nor'Easter sweet treat. After discovering there is no Skinnygirl flavor - as Laduree does not incorporate cottage cheese into its designs, so as to not receive a Google Cal invite to a culinary Hague - she heads back to the cloffice for a Friday night recording (the cherry on top of a great week for Bravo TV, excluding, of course, Orange County). She settles into the cloffice with a new friend-of on the pod, Lukas Thimm (comedian and host of the late-night talk show "So Many Issues with Lukas," live at Brooklyn Art Haus on October 14). Over the course of this two-parter, Sarah and Lukas unpack his family's longtime friendship with "Uncle Andy" Cohen, Andy's ever-evolving relationships with Housewives over the years (hilling with Carole, never'ing with Bethenny, and a TBD on Linnethia), the WWHL that Sarah believes could hill the world, the different forms of performance/producing on RHONY (and why this season is hitting the right notes), the difference between rehearsing lines and rehearsing behaviors (bcc: Jessel and Erin), Hailey's complicated relationship with her mom (and how this impacted pre-post Gosselin decisions), Carole's ease as the secret sauce (vs. the inflexibility of the RHOC cast), which RHOSLC OG could reinvigorate the franchise with a demotion or exit, mixed emotions on the journey that is Heather Gay, amplifying women's voices on and off Bravo, and the community and connection between women and gay men. Sarah believes her museum book idea could change the world (or at least a BravoCon merch table) - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 835! Part 1! Thank You to AG's Sponsors!
