Danielle Cabral claims she is not sure if she can handle another RHONJ season like this past, details the hardest parts of the job and discusses her and the show’s future as the RHONJ long pause remains in full effect. Margaret Josephs has a message for Danielle Staub and Siggy Flicker, discusses Teresa’s grudges, slams ex-friend Jackie Goldschneider, discusses the fall out of Tre’s friendship with Dina Manzo, praises Juicy Joe and slams Louie Ruelas as “evil to the bone” responsible for poisoning Teresa again her. Finally, Alexis Bellino demands respect, is sick of the audience’s and fellow cast member’s sympathy for Shannon and prepares, apparently, to wed Johnny J now that she is an engaged woman. Somewhere, down the block, Jim Bellino is smiling.  @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Andy Cohen tripled down this week on the fact that we should not ask about, think about or expect RHONJ casting news any time soon. That said, it seems to have been a busy week in RHONJ land. Louie Ruelas posted a warning to his enemies which seems to double down on how he feels about Margaret’s son, suggest he was not at all sorry despite his on line apology and imply that he is still as conflicted, having learned nothing, as the toxic nature of RHONJ seems to not have cooled at all despite Andy’s pause. Rachel Fuda claims she is unemployed from RHONJ. Blind items surface that Marge plans to take down Melissa with her arsenal of dirt if she is fired from the show. Finally, Vicki and Tamra’s war gets even nastier, fans and RHOC cast members weigh in and Jennifer Aydin takes the opportunity to slam Tamra back for all that she has said to about her over the past few weeks. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

The Real Housewives of Orange County's Lynne Curtin steps Behind The Rope. Lynne takes us back to when she was first cast to step behind the gates of Coto de Caza in Season Four of the hit Bravo show. Lynne walks us through how she was cast on RHOC, who she knew before being cast and some of the story lines we saw regarding her life as they played out on national television. We discuss how The Real Housewives of Orange Country has changed since the early days and how reality tv, in general, is a whole new landscape in the modern age. Of course we discuss the status of Lynne's current relationships with other OC staples such as Vicki Gunvalson, Tamra Judge, Jeana Keough, Gretchen Rossi, Lydia McLaughlin, Emily Simpson, Heather Dubrow, Lizzie Rovsek, and the Peggys Sulahian and Tanous. We also talk about the times she has crossed paths with Kyle Richards, Lisa Vanderpump and many of our friends from Laguna Beach and The Hills. Finally, no chat with Lynne Curtin would ever be complete without a discussion of her iconic, classic, one of a kind "Lynne Curtin Cuffs”. With this season of RHOC well under way, we figured today the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with the one and only Lynne Curtin. @lynneanncurtin @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) ROSETTA STONE - rosettastone.com/today (50% Off Unlimited Access to 25 Language Courses For The Rest of Your Life) BYHEART - ByHeart.com/Podcast (Use Code VELVET To Redeem Your Welcome Offer On Their Clinically Proven Easy-to-digest Infant Formula) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For $120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) FIJI WATER - www.fijiwater.com (Pick Up The #1 Premium Imported Bottled Water Brand In The US At a Store Near You or Order Online) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility) WOOGA (Download June’s Journey Now on your iOS or Android Device) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

For everyone who did not attend our live show, which lasted over three long hours, no question was off limits. Having just watched one of the most toxic seasons of RHONJ a lot of questions were about RHONJ past, current and, most important, future. Who will return - Teresa or Melissa or Neither? We break all of that down in this Final Part Three of our live show which sold out earlier this month where no question was off limits and where we could not plead the fifth.  From questions about the future of RHONJ, to our own personal break ups and make ups with Margaret Josephs, Jennifer Aydin and other RHONJ staples, we spilled the tea leaving no stone unturned no matter what or who it exposed. If there is one thing we learned from this season of RHONJ, as they say, the truth shall set you free. Of course, we also chatted about this current season of RHOC, shared inside info regarding the future of Vanderpump Rules and discussed what we know about Erika Jayne’s role in RHOBH’s upcoming Season 14. All this and more as we share this Part One today with you, our loyal Patreons. Hey, you may not be able to ask a live question, but at least now you can hear them all and, even more importantly, hear all of the answers. Hope you enjoy this Part Three conclusion to our live show where no question was off limits! @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Listen Now: https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Learn more about your ad choices.

With RHONJ over and done, a lot of the cast is spending time together while other possibly former RHONJ seem to want nothing to do with each other. We discuss which friendships are real and which of our fav Garden State ladies will probably never speak again now that the season has come to an end. In other news, Tom Girardi is found guilty, Erika Jayne reacts and we, the viewing public, await his sentencing later this year. Tamra Judge’s well laid plan for this season of RHOC seems to have gone awry, producers are suspected to be involved, the Housewives audience demands that she be fired and Tamra claps back. On that note, we discuss all the mistakes many Housewives make and break down which wife has played the game the best over the past almost two decades that the entire franchise has been in our lives. Hint: She is still on her respective show. Garcelle Beauvais sets boundaries for RHOBH Season 14, John and Alexis get engaged and Shannon continues to shine seemingly ,outwardly unbothered by it all. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For $120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) BYHEART - ByHeart.com/Podcast (Use Code VELVET To Redeem Your Welcome Offer On Their Clinically Proven Easy-to-digest Infant Formula) ROSETTA STONE - rosettastone.com/today (50% Off Unlimited Access to 25 Language Courses For The Rest of Your Life) FIJI WATER - www.fijiwater.com (Pick Up The #1 Premium Imported Bottled Water Brand In The US At a Store Near You or Order Online) WOOGA (Download June’s Journey Now on your iOS or Android Device) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Vicki Gunvalson had a near death experience, Housewives fans have mixed reactions and Kelly Dodd made the scary encounter all about her. Shocking, we say sarcastically. Speaking of Kelly Dodd, she had some family drama of her own which we break down and discuss. In other news, a new potential villain has emerged over in the VanderVerse as Brittany Cartwright files for divorce days after Jax exits rehab and heads for the Valley. Jax was served on air for all of us to witness when Season Two of this show returns which leaves us asking the only question that matters, what does Kristen Doute think of all of this? Jax Taylor hits paparazzi hot spot with Valley co-star Jesse Lally - who is also going through a divorce, plays victim and continues to film hoping all, we think, gets captured on camera. Finally, Vanderpump Rules the next generation plans to air as one final season of the OGs is rumored to be in the works. Truly, we cannot keep up.

As rumors about the future of RHONJ continue to swirl - some true, some semi true and some pure fiction, we break down where we are with this fractured cast and whether any can return months, if not years from now if the show does indeed return. In other fractured show news, we discuss the likelihood that anyone from the current cast will continue, whether Scheana and Lala will make their desired splash on The Valley, who else from VPR may end up on another LVP show, whether any other spin offs are in the works and whether it is fair to blame Ariana for the possible cancellation of the show in its current form. We discuss why no one seems to like Louie Ruelas, TreHuggers included, whether this upcoming summer in The Hamptons could be Lindsay Hubbard’s last season of Summer House, Erika Jayne’s much needed “dating show”, the upcoming return of RHOBH and so very much more as we are joined by the one and only Morgan Paige Wright from Morgan’s Pop Talks! @morganptalks @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For $120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) BYHEART - ByHeart.com/Podcast (Use Code VELVET To Redeem Your Welcome Offer On Their Clinically Proven Easy-to-digest Infant Formula) ROSETTA STONE - rosettastone.com/today (50% Off Unlimited Access to 25 Language Courses For The Rest of Your Life) FIJI WATER - www.fijiwater.com (Pick Up The #1 Premium Imported Bottled Water Brand In The US At a Store Near You or Order Online) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

In other RHONJ news, Teresa has a very stern new message for Frank Catania, shares shocking news about her brother Joe, urges for a certain past RHONJ to return and much more in a series of recent interviews. The fans react, share their thoughts and scream loud that they will not watch RHONJ if the Tre Huggers' Queen returns.  Heading west, Emily Simpson shares what happened off air with Shannon and Alexis this season which was edited and not seen, John Janssen coming into Shannon’s life is possibly the best thing, in retrospect, that could have ever happened to her and a newly engaged Alexis and Johnny J continue to flaunt their love as fans, cast and Bravo execs react and weigh in everywhere.  @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

Now that last season of RHONJ is a thing of the past and most, if not all, of the cast has stopped doing interviews, we have had a chance to reflect on the future of RHONJ. We continue our chat from earlier this week. Taking everything into account - Andy’s comments, the cast’s comments, everything that is rumored to be going on off air with the cast and bloggers, the rumored salaries of each of the cast members and last, but certainly not least, what each of you has posted on line expressing extreme love or intensive dislike for certain cast members, we slow it down, relax, and lay out what we think is going to happen for the future of this show.

Melissa Gorga claims that she will not return to RHONJ if “dark”, “toxic” Teresa returns. Simultaneously, headlines have emerged that Teresa and Melissa have called a truce to save their high salaries and have now, after the most toxic, lowest rated season in RHONJ history, finally decided to bury their pride and work together to return for RHONJ Season 15. We break down these claims, statements and headlines separating fact from fiction regarding the future of our beloved franchise. Margaret claims the Tre we knew is gone, cares about nothing and the only person who can get through to her is Louie. Tamra Judge claims Danielle Cabral got physical with her brother’s wife, denies she ever said it and now has shifted the focus to herself as “victim”. Joey Gorga hosts a live show, tries to be funny, entertains claims from Frank Catania and upsets Rachel Fuda who demands the toxicity has all gone too far. All this and more in this RHONJ afternoon hot topic quick hit. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
