Covered Show: Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Season 6, Episode 3 (Part 2)
Overview
Hosts Ben and Ronnie dive into part two of their detailed and satirical recap of the latest Real Housewives of Salt Lake City drama. The episode focuses on Heather remodeling her home, Angie’s battles with her daughter and Greek identity, Lisa Barlow’s defensive poster-board lunch over legal rumors, and a lunch that devolves into accusations, denials, and bickering about both lawsuits and beauty appointments—culminating in a spat over whether Lisa called Whitney a "redneck" or "redhead". The commentary is both affectionate and eviscerating, with the hosts reveling in housewife absurdity and hypocrisy at every turn.
