Shamea Culpa: Part 1 (Rafi D'Angelo on RHOA, RHUGT, The Valley, RHORI, RHOC, and more)

Sarah sets a Google Cal reminder for August 23, 2027: "Remember to light a Yahrzeit candle to memorialize the beautiful life that was RHOA S17." After saying her prayers in a Rum Bum shaped spiritual circle, a hilling retreat in the cloff, she celebrates the journey of RHOA and a few other beloved shows (and...Orange County) with her beloved Bravoholic pal, seeker of truths and LOLs, Rafi D'Angelo (writer, overpricedvodka.com). Over the course of this homeless but not toothless two-parter, Sarah and Rafi deep dive their RHOA highs, lows, and omg don't come for Angela or else you're ready for some ruh-rohs, K. Michelle's journey from "Love and Hip-Hop" to RHOA (and the impact of LAHH on her 'plotting' conspiracy theory), a curious case of confirmation bias that had Angela's sympathy (bcc: Don Corleone), Kelli "I look a gift horse in the mouth and say 'nay' to feeling gratitude for Phaedra's legal assistance" Potter, Phaedra and Pinky's continued back-and-forth, Porsha's boundaries around discussion involving her mom and child after a boundary-crossing conflict with Shamea, Shamea's continued focus on her own, sole innocence (while continuing to test people), Angela and Amaré's relationship, Rafi's interest in Kelsey's relationship with her ex [redacted: Judge Caprio's son], a moment from Kyle's RHUGT white party that had Sarah cackling, the importance of gay men as a part of the foundational culture on RHOA (fingers crossed for RHUGT cameos!), "The Valley" aka relationship Dark Shadows, a RHUGT made up of Housewives moms, RHOC's Grand Canyon convo, and more. Kelli says she's the standard, and Hanes would like to have a $650 word - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 826! Part 1! Thank You to AG's Sponsors!
