The Snack: Wedding Dress Drama, 20 Women vs. Drake, and QVC Bl*wjob

“Are we in a rut, or is the relationship over?” is a question so many of us have asked, and we’re breaking it down on this episode. We discuss the signs of a relationship rut, when and why they typically occur, and the questions to ask yourself to determine whether a relationship is worth saving. We discuss how to get out of the rut, from small changes to larger pivots, plus low, medium, and high effort ways to bring novelty into your relationship. We also talk about intimacy vs. sex, why not wanting to have sex isn’t always a red flag, unexpected things that can keep your relationship spicy, and a high-level sex challenge to consider. Before we get into the topic, we have a lot to catch up on – how Rayna is feeling about living in NYC and Ashley’s latest thoughts on moving, Ashley’s ongoing butt issues and a mortifying moment at the doctor, and if Rayna is regretting her short hair.

One of our first-year guests Dale Moss is BACK and we’re getting into it (What’s his relationship status? What kind of woman is he looking for? Would he do reality TV again? Was his Bachelorette season really as crazy as it looked? What’s up with those Party City modeling pics?). But we’re also going deeper into the current state of men and the dating landscape – how women are raising their standards and if men are rising to the occasion, guys holding their friends accountable with bad behavior, and if bro code is over. We also discuss his wellness-based dating app, drinking/not drinking on dates, when your sibling doesn’t like someone you’re dating, and getting through your most painful breakup. Before Dale joins us, we are recapping our trip to Dewey Beach, breaking down the different types of husbands on vacations, Rayna sets the record straight on her “hard launch,” and Ashley has an appendage update.

We are so excited to have sat down with Stassi Schroeder ahead of her new show, House of Stassi, to get candid about her reality TV comeback, this show’s contrast from anything she’s done before, why she didn’t edit out the “bad parts,” working with her husband, and what she’s most fearful of when it premieres. We also talk about her first TV stint (it wasn’t Vanderpump!), why reality shows are so much different now, filming with Katie Maloney again, the “Mandela Effect” about her and Jax Taylor, and why being on reality TV is her therapy. She also opens up to us about the pressure of being a perfect mom, being the breadwinner and how her and Beau co-parent, if she ever feels envious of her peers, and the trick she uses to avoid the comparison trap. Before Stassi joins us, we discuss whether you’d rather be seen or heard having sex and how we switched roles for this recording. Enjoy! Follow Stassi on Instagram @stassischroeder and check out her new show House of Stassi dropping July 29 on Hulu.
