While so many of the Vanderpump Rules cast are making fatal mistakes in their public handling of Scandoval, Ariana Madix seems to be playing the media game oh so well. We deep dive what she is doing so right and how the rest of the cast can learn a thing or two from this woman scorned. Next, we break down Tom Schwartz' WWHL appearance from last week, Andy’s drooling over Schwartzy, Andy's advice, Tom's loyalty to BFF Sandy and how ever were the two polar opposites Tom and Katie a married couple in love. We discuss all the opportunities that have already come Ariana’s way - DWTS, Lifetime Movies - and share our hot takes on whether Ariana fatigue will soon set in or if we are just getting started in the year that is Ariana. In other news, we discuss Luis Ruelas’ recent strange behavior, what that behavior is and why all TreHuggers should stop enabling and start warning their chosen Idol, Miss Teresa Giudice! Code Red Alert. Finally, we chit chat RHUGT Three and ask, is anyone watching? @thesarahfrasershow @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: GREENPAN - greenPan.us (Use Code VELVET For 30% Off Your Entire Order Plus Free Shipping On Orders Over $99)  INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Start Hiring Now.
