A Therapeutic Dose

S1E13 RHOC: Narrative No More!

Since Bravo denied us a new RHOC this week, Ramona & Margee go back to what inspired them to drop their very first Therapeutic Dose – Scandoval! Turns out Scandoval can be infuriating in all new ways when an entirely uninformed Bethenny and an utterly unrecovered Raqu/chel weigh in. Ramona & Margee break down the first two parts of Bethenny’s three-part interview/exploitation of Ms. Leviss upon her emergence from 90 days of treatment with results ranging from questionable to none. Ramona & Margee also briefly touch on 41 recent Georgia indictments, 1 ancient trial-of-the-century, and 2 planets currently in retrograde. This week’s A Therapeutic Dose is to be taken with anything but a Skinnygirl margarita – a beverage as disgusting as the skinny shitlord who created it! 

S1E12 RHOC: Gossip Girls

The OC women all impersonated one another, but Shannon and Heather gave us Mitch McConnell impressions too! Ramona and Margee determine that Vicki and Taylor define the spectrum of “Friend Of” appeal: Vicki is repulsive - no notes for Taylor! Nothing is left in the “vault” this week as Ramona walks us through a Ketamine Therapy treatment, Margee reveals that pretzels led to the demise of a relationship, and both are tortured by being bad plant parents. So let the fire alarm ring in the background and settle in with Señor Noodles for A Therapeutic Dose!

S1E11 RHOC: Luxury Basic

In this week’s location-heavy episode of RHOC, we are taken on a tour of establishments that are truly basic, but with just enough independent wealth to keep them afloat, launching a whole new business category: Luxury Basic! “Earth Bowl,” “Olivia’s Closet,” “Shorebird,” etc, are the khaki pants of Orange County – sure, khakis are passable as dress pants, but we all know you could do better. Against this Luxury Basic backdrop, Margee puts Shane back in the dog house, Ramona sees her reflection in a Pumpkin Patch, and both agree that, of all the Halloween decorations on screen, Dave Archluetta was the scariest by far. Join Ramona and Margee for this week’s A Therapeutic Dose - a Fireside* (*no affiliation with Heather Dubrow/Mark Cuban/Falon/Javier’s) chat about every emotional hair trigger this Orange County cast continues to set off in them!

S1E10 RHOC: Like Tamra’s Face, This Week’s OC is Mostly Filler

On The Real Housewives of Orange County, it seemed like so much was happening! But then nothing really happened. So Ramona & Margee wind up weighing in on all sorts of minutiae from swim costumes, to sex tapes, to the clearance page on Bando, to… hair! Jenn gets her hair done in her kitchen and that’s disgusting. And speaking of disgusting hair, Jenn & Ryan’s therapist/psychic/quackery-incarnate is in desperate need of a hot oil treatment. And finally, RHOC really chose violence when they opened the episode with closeups on wax lollipops of Shane & Emily’s nose hairs. Join Ramona & Margee to sort through all this and more on this week’s A Therapeutic Dose - guaranteed to be more fun and less foamy than a ride on Emily’s disappointing Slip n’ Slide!

S1E9 RHOC: The Off-Gassing of Heather Dubrow

Heather is toxic and everybody’s finally done inhaling her noxious fumes. Emily wins MVP of the episode. And Lauren was… there. In this week’s A Therapeutic Dose, Ramona & Margee examine their big feelings about everything from boats to boob jobs, from white jeggings to white privilege, from upcycling to refrigerator vigilance, and everything in between! 
 

S1E8 RHOC: Privileged White Nonsense

Ever wonder how many emotions a person can experience in just an hour or so? Well, Ramona & Margee found out! They give you anger, laughter, curiosity, love, grief, fear, gratitude, disgust, appreciation, and more! All those feelings arise while discussing the most recent Real Housewives of Orange County episode. Disgust is evoked from Heather’s whole elitist/classist/bitch-bag existence, and also from Jenn’s distractingly disgusting drink of choice (Malibu Rum & Red Bull. –the hell?!!). Amusement is elicited from Gina’s sloppy, slappy, stressed-out peanut butter-to-bread transfer moment. And a whole mess of surrender, revulsion, encouragement, delirium, and foolishness are on display as Ramona & Margee try to process these Bravo Housewives’ “privileged white nonsense.” This week’s A Therapeutic Dose is a real ride on the rapids, so be like the rafting guide's balls and hang out a while! 

S1E7 RHOC: Horseshit, Bullshit, and Meditations on MRSA

After watching RHOC this week, Ramona & Margee conclude that Tamra is terrible at fashion and friendship, that Spanx-less-In-Montana Shannon might be the best Shannon, and that Gina could be a genius if she parlays her campfire meltdown into a ride back to indoor plumbing & a real bed! Today’s A Therapeutic Dose will leave you pondering, what’s grosser: Bison for dinner? MRSA in your body? Or Ryan sending a (limp!) dick pic?... This season of Orange County continues to offer a full buffet of meats and mental health issues. And it's chowtime, y’all! Enjoy.

S1E6 RHOC: Heather Untethered

Ramona & Margee are delighted (but not surprised!) to see Heather reveal herself to be an Internet Movie Data B*%CH! Other revelations from this week’s RHOC include: Shannon is a Miranda; if we never hear another mechanical-bull-riding double entendre again, it’ll be too soon; and the featured guest star of the episode was… meats. The OC remains fertile ground for the mental-healthcare-avoidant because... OC’s gonna OC, guys. OC's gonna OC. 

S1E5 RHOC: Heather Don’t Bro

Ramona & Margee dip into the OC to discover it’s flush with short kings! They also realize that Heather Dubrow Don’t Bro has them both inordinately bothered and they commit to use the remainder of the season to figure out what the actual f*%@ that’s all about. They also share how they consumed ranch dressing in college - Ramona ate fat-free ranch in Washington, Margee drank buttermilk ranch in Michigan. Like Emily’s daughter, Ramona and Margee are “a LOT.” Come temper your big feelings with them on this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

S1E4 VANDERPUMP RULES: Scandoval’s Out For Summer!

Ramona and Margee ponder if EMDR might help the cast of VPR? Then they happily put Scandoval to bed forever (for now). They also report on the return of Tamara & the end of CUT Fitness in the OC. And they take a look at some scripted shows (Beef, The Idol, etc) that will keep them therapy for infinity! If, like LVP, you’re too traumatized for equine therapy, then this week’s A Therapeutic Dose is especially for you.
