SobrieTEA: The Toxicity of Real Housewives of Orange County

September 15, 2025

Meet Suzanne

Suzanne is the host of the popular sobriety podcast, The Sober Mom Life. Suzanne quit drinking more than 4 years ago and has found freedom from moderation, a message she proudly shares with the world. When she's not glamorizing sobriety, Suzanne enjoys spending her time with her 3 kids, her husband, and her dog, Georgia, all while reheating her coffee, until she eventually forgets it in the microwave.

Today we’re doing a deep dive into RHOC, where Tamara brought the ancient drama of Naked Wasted at a lie detector party. We went back and refreshed our memories by watching Naked Wasted (Season 4, Episode 8 if you’d like to do the same) and we have some THOUGHTS! 

After we explore the toxicity of RHOC we’ll dip our toes into the palette cleanser of Real Housewives of Miami and recap our thoughts on their trip to Seville. 

Plus: Unknown Number, why Bravo is more enjoyable now that we’re sober, and our personal experiences with ADHD and OCD minds.
