Happy holidays! Jamie celebrates the end of the year by inviting friend of the pod Piper Sample to unpack all the surreal goings-on of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.

The ongoing feud between Garcelle Beauvais and Dorit Kemsley on season 11 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has gone in circles, it's been hashed and rehashed, and yet it has never found truly meaningful resolution - leading many viewers to wonder "Just what was this fight really about?" Jamie invites astute Housewives intuitive Piper Sample back to the pod to dig into this very question. Together, they feel into Dorit's underlying need to insert herself into conflicts that have nothing to do with her, what Dorit's insertion brings up in Garcelle, and what Garcelle's own insertion then brings up in Dorit. It's a merry-go-round into themes of what it means to feel like an outsider, how (and why) we make bids for relevancy, the sometimes futile attempt to be heard in a larger system that simply doesn't want to hear you, and much more.
