Paige DeSorbo on 'Summer House', 'Giggly Squad', and Her New Era
Andie Jane Coat, Khy by Kylie Jenner. Shoes, Paige Denim. Tights, Calzedonia. Earrings, vintage. When Paige DeSorbo turned 30, she was shocked by the “crazy shift” that occurred. “People treat you differently,” she tells me, leaning back into a couch in her apartment on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. Dressed in head-to-toe sweats—a matching set, of course—the reality TV star is clear-eyed: “They expect different things from you.
It’s Funny We Met On Hinge
This newsletter post is sponsored by Hinge. Adam and I always say that there are two stories of how we met. The short story is simple and straightforward: We matched on Hinge* in March of 2019. And then there’s a longer one… I was raised on a steady diet of classic ‘80s and ‘90s rom-coms.
The Agile shift: from deadline pressure to event-driven progress
Emma Gray · Follow Published in MPB Tech · 6 min read · -- Photo by Ricardo Arce Let me share a cautionary tale that might feel all too familiar if you’ve ever been part of a software development project. It begins with a development team, a business executive and a crowd of eager stakeholders waiting for a project to launch. At the outset the executive asks the development team for a delivery date. It’s a reasonable question but it makes the team feel uneasy.

On 'Summer House,' 'VPR' + 'The Valley,' We Watched Everything Break
Bravo shows tend to be their most interesting and most depressing when we’re watching something dissolve, whether that’s a longterm relationship or the remaining space between reality TV cast members and their audience. “The Valley,” “Summer House” and “Vanderpump Rules” all ended their seasons with something fundamental shattering. On “Summer House” it was . On “The Valley,” it was the marriages of Michelle and Jesse Lally, and Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright.

'Bridgerton' S3 Is Sexy, Uneven, And Really Working For Us
Dearest gentle reader… In the words of our dear gossip-monger Lady Whistledown, “Diamonds are not the only gems that sparkle.” On this season of “Bridgerton,” we are given an emerald, in the form of a no-longer-citrus-clad Penelope Featherington. The former wallflower is in full bloom, catching the eyes of both naturalist Lord Debling and her old friend Colin Bridgerton, newly returned from his travels around the continent. Will these former friends become something more?

'VPR,' 'Summer House,' & 'The Valley'
Are we in the golden age of friend-group Bravo shows? After doing a major binge of established shows “Summer House,” “Vanderpump Rules,” and new addition “The Valley,” we think that answer is a resounding yes. So naturally, we had to get of back on the Rich Text pod to do a little state of the Bravo union. All three of the aforementioned shows track the semi-glitzy, semi-depressing, utterly entertaining lives of 20, 30 and 40-somethings in Los Angeles and New York City.

'Irish Wish' Is An Unsettling Plaid-Drenched Fever Dream
Audio playback is not supported on your browser. Please upgrade. One of the first things you notice about “Irish Wish,” the latest output of Lindsay Lohan’s deal with Netflix, is just how… saturated the colors are. The pink accents in her plaid knee-length dress look a little too pink. The green grass of the Irish countryside is a little too green. The blue of the water is a little too blue. Are we in Ireland at all, you start to wonder? Is that real clothing? Are those real human beings?

A 'Bachelor' lead with emotional intelligence was a twist we didn't expect ahead of tonight's finale

After a day filled with lighthearted banter and wandering around Malta — the perfect place to fall in love! — it’s time for Young to “open up” and “be vulnerable” over an untouched dinner.

'Love Is Blind' 6 Could Make Us Forget Season 5
Audio playback is not supported on your browser. Please upgrade. Season 6 of Netflix’s “Love Is Blind” dropped its first six episodes on Valentine’s Day, and (obviously) we binged them all. The verdict? So far, so good. After an absolutely disastrous season 5, which left multiplelawsuits in its wake, and two couples fully erased from the season, we were wary heading into season 6. But six episodes in, LIB’s Charlotte, North Carolina season is off to a strong start.

The Art Of The Blowjob

What is its nature?” Jacqueline Novak asks early in her show, “Get On Your Knees.” After some consideration she concludes that the penis is tender, responsive, and has “the soul of an artist.” Like the organ it explores, “Get On Your Knees” has a tenderness at its center, wrapped in a package of genital humor.

Girly Girlies
“Girl” dinner.Hot “girl” walks. “Girly” aesthetics: oversized bows, friendship bracelets, pink on pink on pink on pink. The monoculture of 2023 was, in so many ways, for the “girlies.” As the year comes to a close, some cultural critics have turned their sharp eyes onto the proliferation of girl culture. What does it mean? What does it say about us? What dark realities might be lingering just under the hot pink, Barbie-fied, Swiftie-bracelet-adorned surface?

'FBoy Island,' Katie Thurston Edition
FBoy? F, Hi. Again! After being unceremoniously axed by MAX in 2022, our favorite, innovative reality dating show has made a moderately triumphant comeback. “FBoy Island,” a show from the creative brain of former “Bachelor” EP Elan Gale, just wrapped up its third season on The CW, and boy do we have thoughts. First, there’s the good. We’ve been “FBoy Island” devotees since its first season in 2021. Instead of prioritizing constructed drama, “FBoy Island” prioritizes comedy and narrative.

Why I'm obsessed with the women of "The Golden Bachelor"
There's a moment from the first season of "The Golden Bachelor" that I can't get out of my head. In episode five, 72-year-old "Bachelor" Gerry Turner must cull the group of women vying for his heart from six to three. He stands in front of them, eyes welling with tears, and ultimately gifts the final rose of the night to the petite, 70-year-old brunette Theresa Nist.
