2. Correction from Prior Potomac Recap – The "Fake Contract" Mix-Up
- [05:40] Correction Time: Ben admits to botching a timeline when joking about a "fake contract" on RHOP—realizing his date math was off due to confusing filming and air dates.
“I sat there standing there making fun of TJ for being so stupid to use the wrong date when it was I, I who was the stupid one.” (Ben, 06:12) - Ronnie doubles down on skepticism about the contract but concedes they got the context wrong.

3. Wendy Osefo (RHOP) Legal Drama
- [08:43] Breaking News: Wendy Osefo of RHOP files docs claiming she’s the victim of an illegal arrest with fraud charges pending—now demanding charges be dismissed.
“She claims that she was the victim of an illegal arrest as she fights her fraud charges. ... She wants all evidence be suppressed because of an unlawful search or seizure.” (Ronnie, 09:19) - Both hosts commiserate with the concept of “standard legal filings” and relate with humorous tales of fighting tickets as teenagers.
"I think that that's kind of a standard thing that you do, right? When you are... Arrested, you're like, 'They did. This is unfair.'” (Ronnie, 10:09)

(Ben, 15:12)
5. Salt Lake City Rumors: Dr. Bravo Derm Blogger, Angie K DMs, & Lisa Barlow Gossip
- [18:32] SLCS Blogger Wars: The guys discuss internet detective “Dr. Bravo Derm,” who leaked legal info on Bronwyn. Ronnie reads out tame leaked DMs with Angie and concludes the drama is overblown.

I’m confused as to what the huge story is…” (Ronnie, 25:54) - [26:15] Lisa Barlow on Sniffies Rumor: Ben reads one of the wildest gossip items of the week: Lisa Barlow allegedly using gay hook-up app Sniffies to rob men (a rumor neither host believes but finds hilarious).

“That was hard for me...I cannot accept a world in which Faye is an Andrew Tate fan.” (Ben, 32:13) - Ronnie is unsympathetic: “I'm not giving Faye ‘it’s a hacking’ either. Who's gonna hack somebody from one bad season of Below Deck?”

“She got kicked off…got kicked out of there.” (Ronnie, 38:01) - Discussion on Shamea, Kelly, Angela, and who deserves another shot.
“Phaedra, Portia, Angela, that is where we need to focus. And Drew Sidora, because Drew is a con artist. And that's funny to me.” (Ben, 39:32)
