We Signed An NDA (Amanda Lifford, Miki Ann Maddox)

"You're a prize ... he is not the prize." This week on VPR, it's a tale of two (broken) relationships. It's also a tale of girl's girls and not-so-girl's girls. Plus: real estate drama (congrats on your new house Ariana!), a secret Vegas makeout, very guttural breathwork with Dr. Vu, and our dearest Ann shoots her shot with a potential new boss ... Amanda and Ann are here to gab about it all.

Then, the gals talk to comedy queen and podcaster extraordinaire Aricia Skidmore-Williams (22:44) about all her wild stories from the trenches of assistanthood. Aricia's building an empire; we have no choice but to stan.

For this week's final act, Lauren Payton (from last week!) is back to talk "Swag Runoff," cool/fun/weird hand-me-downs from previous bosses (1:13:13).

"Choke. I don't care." In the third and final installment of the VPR Season 11 reunion*, Lala doubles down on her statements from the final moments of the season finale, but Ann and Amanda think there's more than meets the delulu. As one of our nation's tallest (and saddest) president's once said, "United we stand. Divided we fall, Lala." (You'll get it when you listen). Plus, Ann delivers Something About Her sandwiches on screen and some behind-the-scenes tidbits on pod.

*CW: This episode's VPR reunion recap includes a discussion about abuse, violence, and PTSD. If you'd prefer to skip this section, pause at 14 minutes and skip to (28:55).

Then the gals interview writer, comedian, and "Sick Little Freak" star Sarah Bebb (31:17) about her time as a mashed-potato-loving intern at "Shmeorge Shmooney's" production company and other delightfully awkward Hollywood moments!

To finish off our final VPR S11 episode, Ann, Amanda, and Sarah revisit one of their favorite segments, "Meet Me in the Sprinter Van" (01:14:20). Let us know what shows, pop culture topics, and whatever else you want us to cover next!!

"I'm soft now." This was an emo episode of VPR (and it wasn't even emo night). Lots of deep convos: Ariana & Lala, Lala & Jo, Jo & Schwartz. Also, Katie opts to eat another jacket rather than do a group activity with Sandoval (jacket: leather, activity: paintball).

Next on the agenda: Summer House (17:28) -- welcome to the WSANDA rotation! Tensions are high in the Hamptons. We've got a flower boy, a fancy dinner (thrown by our Lord and Savior Paige DeSorbo), and several more fights. Amanda and Ann get into it.

Then the gals get their minds blown and their worlds rocked by sexy, insightful Brooklyn-based apprentice dominatrix "Holly" (29:22). They talk lube fairies, feet pics, pay pigs, pegging, and so much more. (Also, doesn't "The Dominatrix's Apprentice" sound like an incredible movie title?)

For this week's happy ending (1:10:40), Ann and Amanda play "Safe Word" a new game where they imagine what safe words various Bravolebs might choose (this quickly devolves into free word association).

“If he had HR, he’d be fucked.” This VPR episode is a doozy for our dear Ann. She's "professional and prepared," but she's also fired (or is she?!). There's a kitchen interview (that leads to an outburst about Ann), a sparkling water tasting party (where the VPR gang inquires about and then Ariana and Tom fight about Ann), and then a cursed beach day (during which another argument breaks out about Ann). Mercury is in fact in retrograde. Ann is here to share her side of the story and Amanda is here to defend her friend to the ends of the Earth.

"SECOND of all," the gals sit down with Rebecca Leib (42:06), former celebrity psychic’s assistant and current ghost girlie. She shares some of her favorite anecdotes from her support staff jobs, including a game show hosted by Jane Lynch and a ghost hunting show that had her stay at an extremely creepy haunted mansion while tipsy. They also talk about how teeny tiny Lala, Ariana, and celebrities in general are in real life. 

Before class is dismissed, they play a new game, “True Crime, Fake Crime,” (1:24:36) and tell a truly unhinged tale about Taylor Armstrong of Real Housewives fame and her imagined untimely death by candle. If you don’t understand it, you’re paying attention.

Rebecca’s plugs:

"I am the final boss in his video game of redemption." On the finale of VPR Season 11, things boil over in the Bay Area. Dan gets grilled, Scheana takes the stage, and the gang, led by Lala (and perhaps fueled by the green-eyed monster), turns on Ariana. Amanda and Ann get into it all (in a raw, remote, sleepy, silly haze).

Then the gals interview comedian Jessica Svendsgaard (36:14), the beautiful bartender featured on VPR S11 in the sexy singles episode, about what it was like working for Tom, the joys of being compensated for ones labor, and her many creative pursuits. 

Before they say au revoir, Ann, Amanda, and Jess share the Taylor Swift eras in which they currently reside (1:25:00).

"Life without Ann." This week on Vanderpump Rules, we see what life at Tom and Ariana's house looks like without our beloved Ann. Shoes on the table?? We also see James confront Tom about his many lies and all the girls and gays celebrating new life at Lala's sperm donor party (which is the cutest thing ever). May the best sperm win!! Amanda and Ann unpack these things and more.

[CW: Ann talks about death, PTSD, and her experience working in close proximity with someone at risk of self-harm. If you'd like to avoid this section, pause at about 5 minutes in and skip to 08:00.]

Next, Ann & Amanda discuss Summer House and check in on quarreling spouses Kyle & Amanda.

Then the gals interview feminist filmmaker and resident "Halloween Girl" Lucé Tomlin-Brenner (26:48) about her past life as an assistant to a celebrity fitness guru. They talk bodies, bodies, bodies and the bonkers standards of La La Land.

Before class is dismissed (01:14:34), Amanda and Ann follow in Lala's footsteps and share what they'd look for in a sperm donor. (This recording really devolved into chaos and much of it could not be included in the final cut -- if you want to listen, subscribe to the Patreon!)

If you're only here to find out whether Ann knew about the affair (and would listen hatefully and resentfully to anything that's not that) skip to 25 minutes in. See, we value your time! And we don't want you to be mad at us. That being said, we'd love for you to listen from the beginning because we worked really hard on it. Ann worked so hard she got back pain. Amanda, on the other hand, always has back pain.

Oscar recounts Scandoval breaking while he and Ann were on vacation in Japan and share some rich insights on reality TV. How dare someone be so thoughtful and entertaining!? 

Maybe this is too much apologetic woman energy (so sorry about that!!) but we would like to acknowledge that the audio ain't perfect for this episode. We're learning and we're growing and we're doing everything we can to level up your auditory experience. It's only up from here!

“I do fetal position sobbing in private.” Amanda and Ann dive right into VPR Season 11 Reunion Part 2. Lala continues to "not understand" (read: completely disregard) her friends' boundaries. Jo pulls up a chair to address her situationship with Schwartz (and the other women defend her in a true feat of girlhood). Andy loves Ann (and we love Andy right back).

Then the gals talk to Aviel Mann Ballo (31:15), a musician, agency survivor, and absolute sweetheart who most recently worked as a writer's room assistant on the upcoming series Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. Warning: Interview contains adorable nerd love story. (A note from our producer: "Go Bears")

Before they relieve themselves, Ann and Amanda give us a new segment called "Freeze, NY-Pee-Pee!" (1:24:27). That's right, we're not above potty humor.

"Another fight, another vehicle." Amanda and Ann wade into the icy waters of Lake Tahoe as Superstorm Sandoval wreaks havoc on the VPR friend group. There are various altercations in various locations. Brace yourselves.

Then they're joined by multi-talented horseboy Garrett Palm (25:36) for a delightful conversation covering everything from YouTube wormholes to karaoke with your boss to the fascinating social dynamics of bears and horses.

Lastly, the gals try out a new couples therapy segment (1:34:45) and share their perspective on Kyle and Amanda's relationship in Summer House (another Bravo favorite) Season 8.

"I was very impressionable..." The VPR gang reunites (part 1) to rehash Season 11 and things start to re-heat up. Sandoval says some stupid stuff. Katie and Lala argue. Lisa is Lisa-ish.**

Next, Amanda and Ann discuss Ann's debut appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen (20:08)! Dreams really do come true!! Who brought soup to the Clubhouse? Were the gals offered coke in the bathroom? Was Ann allowed to drink her lemon drop?? You'll have to listen to find out!! (Also, if you're the PA who makes drinks at WWHL, dm us please - thanks!)

Then, the gals talk to comedian, musician, and all-around Renaissance man Zach Olsen (30:50), who was also (briefly) an assistant to Tom Sandoval (dun dun duuuuun).

To close out the show, Ann and Amanda play a game inspired by their recent trip to the WWHL Clubhouse (1:15:50)!

"He did you a favor." Ann and Amanda recap the Summer House Season 8 Finale ... that's right, we've reached the highly anticipated Carl-Lindsay breakup brawl. Chivalry may be dead, but girlhood is very much alive!

Then the gals talk to the wickedly talented Erin Byrne (26:48) -- comedian, writer, poet, and niche coffee order expert -- about their bonkers time working as an assistant at a heavyweight animation studio (codename: The Bears). For legal reasons, we cannot stress enough how much this studio is NOT DISNEY.

Before they tap out, Amanda and Ann play a new game called "KO Line for the Supertease" (1:18:42). To help Lindsay Hubbard prepare for the Summer House reunion tomorrow (which was filmed weeks ago WE KNOW), our hosts pitch some mic drop material for her to use on Carl.

"I don't hate you. I just see you." If one thing's for sure on this season of Summer House, it's that Paige freakin' DeSorbo rides HARD for her girls. In the first installment of the SH8 Reunion, we graze the Carl-Lindsay breakup, but the real drama starts when Andy steers the conversation toward the Ciara-West summer situationship. The girlies rush to Ciara's defense and it is both beautiful and terrifying. Wonder what West's DMs are lookin like now ... ("We were all rooting for you!" - Tyra Banks)

Ann also recaps an unhinged YouTube Live show (aka verbal car crash) featuring Kyle Chan and Victoria Lee that is currently melting her brain (16:40).

Then the gals interview mensch, daytime television survivor, and supportive husband Travis Helwig (28:24). A non-Japanese writer and comedian, he worked for Ellen (Shmellen DeShmeneres), Billy on the Street, and Adam Ruins Everything, among others ... and all of that was totally fine and chill! Tune in to hear some WILD BTS stories, Travis's thoughts on NDAs, and the tale of how he made it "to Hollywood from Asbestos, Connecticut."

As we near the finish line on our 20th episode, Ann and Amanda pay homage to another volume-challenged comedian, Mr. Billy Eichner, borrowing his "For a Dollar" segment and yelling at lovely Travis who did absolutely nothing to deserve such treatment (1:20:15).

"So you're telling me there's a chance." Ann and Amanda discuss part 2 of the Summer House Season 8 reunion and OH how the turn tables ... no matter whose side you're on, hopefully we can all agree that it was the right decision for Carl and Lindsay to break their engagement. Also, Ann gives us an update on her first official week at Something About Her!

NOTE: We recorded this episode's intro segment on Father's Day, which was definitely challenging for Ann -- to any NDAngels who need a little extra support around Father's Day for whatever reason, the WSANDA team sends you love <3

Then the gals interview undeniably hilarious comedian and former celebrity dog walker Jackie Michele Johnson (25:28) about the A-list dogs that won her heart and destroyed her car. Tune in to hear about a disastrous girls trip, horrible boyfriends, and all the excrement that might escape you or your canine passengers in LA traffic.

Before letting Jackie go, Ann and Amanda get her expert opinions on celebrity makeup and skincare brands (1:17:32). Listen to Jackie's beauty and self care podcast Natch Beaut!

"I hate it, I hate it, more more more!" Ann and Amanda discuss Wet Katie's (for any first time listeners, that's VPR's Katie Maloney when wet) latest Instagram appearance, Love Island USA S6, and Traitors S3.

Then the gals interview comedian, writer, and certified sweetheart Joe Corcoran (23:08) about his 10+ years of assistant-ing in the big, wide world of entertainment. NBC Page Program, anyone?!

Before calling it quits, Amanda and Ann role play some tough Love Island breakup scenarios (1:05:28)! Maybe one of these gals will be on Love Island one day ... who knows?! (As Scar from The Lion King and the Scouts of America say, "Be Prepared!")

NOTE: Happy summer everyone! The WSANDA team is working remotely from around the world right now, so everything's a little fucked up ... bear with us please ... thanks!

"Be the water, bitch!" Ann and Amanda talk Summer House Season 9 pre-filming drama (Danielle's exit letter ... ) and speculate wildly. They also discuss the recent US presidential debate and it's reality TV-ness (and there are some striking parallels between these guys and the cast of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City).

Then the gals interview writer, comedian, and woman-who-is-so-clearly-intelligent-and-yet-so-fucking-goofy, May Darmon (27:34) about her time in the trenches of Hollywood, including a very harrowing tale about soup ... dun dun dunnnnn.

Before signing off, Amanda and Ann ask the Question of the Week: what email would ruin your workday (1:18:48)? And they end up talking about pinworms a lot ... idk why. Send us your answers please (submissions email & insta handle below)!

NOTE: Happy summer everyone! The WSANDA team is working remotely from around the world right now, so everything's a little fucked up. At the end of this episode, please enjoy an original song that was born from said remote technical difficulties, written and performed by our very own Amanda Lifford (1:28:44).

"I think he's weird ... I think he's a weird man." Ann and Amanda talk Lindsay Hubbard's (Summer House) pregnancy announcement, Ann's drug-induced kindness towards Something About Her patrons, and Katie Maloney's (VPR) defense of Ann on a popular podcast.

Then the gals interview writer, comedian, and polite, kind boy, Max Kliman (27:03) about the many things angry Hollywood people have put him through -- one of which is another harrowing tale involving soup. If I had a nickel for every time a guest has shared their soup-related work trauma on this show, I'd have two nickels ... which isn't that many, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?

Before they exit, Amanda and Ann recap some memorable entrances from the season premiere of The Bachelorette featuring Jenn "Jenny" Tran (1:07:31)!

Then a second Amanda, Friedman to be exact, enters the chat (35:49) to talk about life as a comedian and assistant to Vanderpump Rules Friend of Show Billie Lee!

“His dong gets in the way ...” Ann and Amanda recap this week's episode of The Bachelorette ("deep" chats, mini mullets, sheep farming, etc.) and chat about the Paris Olympics (mostly just a penis-related pole vault mishap).

Then the gals interview very funny writer and self-proclaimed "Sabrina Carpenter gay" Jesse Esparza (23:14)! He worked at a Hollywood hotel and a celebrity Starbucks ... and he's seen some THINGS!

“The work is continuous.” This week, the gals break down Joel Kim Booster’s comments on working with Real Housewife of Orange County Shannon Beador. They have a nuanced conversation about racism and the intersection of trauma and accountability. They also talk about outer space which neither of them knows anything about except that it’s freaky how big it is. We end with a game of “Was It Sexual Harassment” featuring this week’s interview guest Jon Hess.

"It was vaguely feral and sexual and nobody liked it." This week the gals talk Love Is Blind. Here’s what you need to know, the banter floweth over but Amanda has only seen the first 5 episodes and when Ann “reveals” whether or not the couples are still together, she’s going off of the speculative journalism on the World Wide Web. If you’re a LIB purest who will be watching the finale episode next week and don’t yet want to hear the internet’s take on whether or not they’re still together, this is not the episode for you (but we love that you were going to listen to us!!!).

We're doing two eps a week now -- one interview, one pop culture chat. If you missed the interview episode on Wednesday, go back to hear Game of Roses hosts Chad and Lizzy!

"Gobble, gobble." Happy (almost) Turkey Day everyone! This week, we're bringing back one of our favorite episodes from the WSANDA archive: the gals interview mensch, daytime television survivor, and supportive husband Travis Helwig. He worked for Ellen (Shmellen DeShmeneres), Billy on the Street, and Adam Ruins Everything, among others ... and all of that was totally fine and chill! Tune in to hear some WILD BTS stories, Travis's thoughts on NDAs, and the tale of how he made it "to Hollywood from Asbestos, Connecticut."

For dessert, Ann and Amanda pay homage to another volume-challenged comedian, Mr. Billy Eichner, borrowing his "For a Dollar" segment and yelling at lovely Travis who did absolutely nothing to deserve such treatment.

First of all, thank you for reading the episode notes. Second of all, this one's a goodie. Ann and Amanda start with a nuanced conversation about mental health, accountability, and "Scheana Twain" in recapping Vanderpump Rules Season 11 Episode 4. Amanda also shares a very important observation about Katie. Then Jacki Merchant enters the chat (18:40) to answer so many questions about how the reality TV sausage gets made. She touches on Frankenbites, notes from execs, the role of alcohol and drink limits, and ethical boundaries. Ann and Amanda bring things home with their new segment "If They Were Your Boss," where they speculate about how various celebrities/bravolebrities would treat their assistant.

This is a month where we highlight and honor Black history in America and many in our Bravo community could be extremely triggered by the insensitivity of Tom’s  comments in the New York Times, especially in our current cultural climate. If you have any questions about why Tom Sandoval’s comments about OJ Simpson and George Floyd were insensitive, would like to further educate yourselves on racial inequality in America, or donate to the BLM survival fund, please go to:

"Shoes on the chair?!" This week on VPR we watched our girl Ann swiffer for her goddamn life, and heard Ariana ask the important questions: What exactly is Ann's job description? And why does it feel like she's becoming Tom's mom? Also in this ep: sexy singles in a pool, a situationship in a swan boat, a sad Sandoval in a closet ... and Amanda and Ann are here to unpack it all!

Then the gals interview content creator, comedian, and proud girl kisser Lauren Payton about her adventures in assistant-ing: the good, the bad, and the absolutely delulu (36:26). Her stories are cuckoo bananas, so strap in. Giggles abound, fun codenames guaranteed.

To round out the episode, Ann, Amanda, and Lauren deliver another installment of "If They Were Your Boss" (1:17:30) -- they choose some celebs and riff on how they might treat their staff.

Amanda (calling all the way from New Zealand and positively at war with the wifi) asks Ann about her experience filming VPR S11 eps 1 & 2.  What was it like working as the go-between for Tom and Ariana post-breakup?? Short answer: yikes. Longer answer: listen to the episode!

Then the gals interview the lovely and talented Molly Kiernan (writer, actor, assistant extraordinaire), who was Ann's assistant at BravoCon! Messy cars, hot takes on Home Alone, snail placenta ... we've got it all!

"Hot babes and wolves" ... what more could you ask for!? Amanda and Ann dive into Lake Tahoe with the Vanderpump gang (Tom Sandoval has re-joined the group ... yikes). We've got a derpy wolf, we've got a bee sacrifice, we've got deeply uncomfortable pre-Tahoe shopping trips, but do we have accountability from Sandoval? That is the question.

Then the gals interview Raiza Licea (Artistic Director at Upright Citizens Brigade, former assistant to Juanes) and Milagro Morales (ceramicist, current assistant to Raiza Licea) about the comedy and improv community at UCB, hot takes on VPR, Drake's [redacted], and their experiences as Latina artists in Los Angeles. Beware of extreme silliness.

To finish us off, Ann and Amanda share their Real Housewives taglines (spoiler alert: may contain beans).

"Give me an example of male rage." This week on VPR, the gang heads to San Francisco (Yay Area!). Ariana is gaslit, Dan is hot, and Ann is (allegedly) employed (yay!). Amanda and Ann talk about it. 

Then the gals interview the delightful Lucinda Pace (33:24) about her experience as an interior designer to the rich and famous or, as Ann puts it, "Silver Lake mamas."

Yes, and ... Ann and Amanda perform a brief improv scene (1:24:48) inspired by the bottomless (ball) pit of awkwardness that is Jo and Schwartz's situationship.

"There's a lot of male yelling..."  This week on VPR, Scheana and Brock are on the rocks, Katie is a sexy gem, and Sandoval is throwing stones. And on The Valley, there's a distressing defecation (marine biologists please weigh in on this one). Amanda and Ann discuss it all!

Then they talk to fellow VPR podcaster and comedian Jason Horton about his time at E! News (28:44)!

Before we put this episode to bed(rock), the gals play a new game inspired by Lala's iconic line "Disengage, bitch!" (1:09:00).

Yeah, that's right, it's Emo Night. Amanda and Ann unpack the VPR squad's on-screen drama as they continue to grapple with the fallout of Scandoval and it's effect on their friend group.

Then, Ann's former co-worker and beloved friend Jeffrey Rizzi shares some of his favorite stories from working the VIP section at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, featuring some of our most lovable stars: Regina Spektor, Dylan Mulvaney, Jack Black, and more. "It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock n’ Roll)" and that's what this podcast is all about.

"I'll unpack my feelings." "Privately?" "Yeah." "Thank you." 

As Ann puts it, this week's episode of VPR feels like "Social Survivor." Alliances are deepening, rifts are widening, and everyone is scoping out where their friends fall on the Sandoval Banishment Spectrum. Amanda and Ann analyze this episode's many "windsights" (windows + insights, get on board!) into why some VPR cast members are clinging to their friendship with Tom, what their motivations could be, and what power dynamics may or may not be at play. Also featured in this episode: Jessica "The Brain" (Lala's assistant - hey girl!), baby Ally Taylewber Swift, and the return of Jwartz/Schwo.

Then, the gals talk to comedian and noted Tom Sandoval impressionist Chris Burns, known to many on the internet as Fat Carrie Bradshaw (22:18), about the server-by-night-performer-by-much-later-at-night grind, life as a video content creator, hot takes on Gilmore Girls, Lisa freakin' Barlow, and more!

To close us out, Chris sticks around for a little improv exercise starring Ann as Ann, Chris as Tom Sandoval, and Amanda as a TSA agent (57:20). Enjoy!
