As the new season of RHONJ is in full swinging filming with Teresa and Melissa still not speaking to each other, we check in with the leaked drama from set thus far, discuss how the rest of the season is likely to play out and which past RHONJ and RHONJ “Friends Of” are actually likely to return later this season despite all the on line chatter, fake news and rumors. In other news, with Jax, Kristen, Ramona and Mary Cosby back in the Bravo mix, we analyze how, where and why and whether there is a double standard when talent is let go seemingly for cause as to who the golden doors remain open to for a much hyped return. Finally, we discuss how and why Tom and Ariana are still living together, share Vanderpump Rules Season 11 filming updates and the likelihood that the franchise can achieve another season of Scandoval level drama without Ms. Leviss in tow. Finally, we reveal our recent DMs from the icon that is Phaedra Parks. Talk about burying the lead. @thesarahfrasershow @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: MTV Music Awards - (The MTV Music Awards are LIVE this Tuesday September 12th at at 8pm EST / 7 CENTRAL)  RELIEFBAND - reliefband.com (20% Off Plus Free Shipping.
