<p>The Voice’s Ryan Gallagher steps Behind The Rope.&nbsp;Ryan is having a major moment right now having wowed the judges with a leave them speechless audition on the top NBC hit show, “The Voice”.&nbsp;An audition which had judges Kelly Clarkson and Blake Shelton turning around their chairs to see the man behind the soulful operatic voice.&nbsp;The man is Ryan Gallagher, a classically trained vocalist who got his start in the music industry singing backup for world renowned singer Josh Groban.&nbsp;Speaking of music icons, Ryan has also shared the stage with the likes of Carrie Underwood and Michael Bolton. Of course, we needed to hear about that they are really like. We also needed to hear all about the behind the scenes inner workings of “The Voice” and real truths about their famed judges Kelly Clarkson, whose team he ultimately ended up on (good choice, Ryan!), Blake Shelton, John Legend and last, but certainly not least, Gwen Stefani.&nbsp;We also needed to hear all about the filing process, eliminations and guest judges such as Usher. If you think you recognize Ryan’s name it could be because he was also a contestant on “American Idol” in the past.&nbsp;It could also be because he was a cast member on the hit MTV show, “Ex On The Beach”.&nbsp;We discuss reality TV with Ryan, his current place in “The Voice” competition and what would happen, as we get down to the final weeks, if he really won.&nbsp;(He has since been removed from the competition due to violation of Covid Protocols - listen closely as we discuss Covid herein).

<p>Below Deck’s Bruno Duarte steps Behind The Rope.&nbsp;Bruno is here to - TELL - IT - ALL!&nbsp;Checking in from the home he shares with his Fiancé in France, Bruno wastes no time in telling us EXACLY what filming with Below Deck vets Kate Chastain and Captain Lee was like during Season Five of the hit Bravo TV Show.&nbsp;Hint, it isn’t too good. Holding nothing back and being completely honest, Bruno gives us a play by play of specific situations where he was not treated so kindly by both on camera as well as when the cameras weren’t rolling.&nbsp;He provides several examples which, quite frankly, left us completely agape and speechless. Speechless, which does not happen too often here Behind The Rope.&nbsp;Bruno explains how The Real World of Yachting differs from what we see on Below Deck each week as the drama plays out and the real perception of Below Deck, Captains Lee and Sandy, Kate Chastain and Hannah Ferrier in the actual working yachting industry.&nbsp;He also discussed “producer involvement” in filming the show and just how “real” the situations we see are versus what is contrived to make “good television”.&nbsp;On a lighter note, being from Portugal and having lived there most of his life, we HAD to ask what it was like when Queen Madonna decided to take up residence there and turn the country upside down.&nbsp;OMG. Tune in for Part One of our sit down with the one and only Bruno Duarte from Below Deck.</p><br><p>@bruknowsfit</p><p>@behindvelvetrope</p><p>@davidyontef</p><br><p><br></p><p>Bonus Episodes Available at<strong> - </strong><a href="https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope</strong></a></p><br><p><br></p><p>Brought to you by Duke Cannon <a href="https://www.dukecannon.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.dukecannon.com</strong></a> available in the men’s grooming section of Target</p><br><p><br></p><p>Brought to you by Better Help <a href="https://www.betterhelp.com/velvetrope" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.betterhelp.com/velvetrope</strong></a></p><br><p><br></p><p>Merch Available at <strong>- </strong><a href="https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198</strong></a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>

<p>Real Life Run Ins and a Recap of the show so far! It is time, my Ropers to finally discuss the new gift we have in our life, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Is it a gift or on the fast track to becoming the next Real Housewives of DC? The boys from “Gayish Podcast” (Mike Johnson &amp; Kyle Getz) - they had me at Gayish - join us for an in depth analysis and breakdown of Meredith Marks, Lisa Barlow, Heather Gay, Jen Shah, Whitney Rose and last, but certainly not least, Mary Cosby. As expected, us boys do not agree on everything, or actually, much of anything. David also talks about his real life “friendship”/“ties” to Meredith Marks and her son Brooks. Oh and we should note, Mike has never watched an episode of Housewives before in his life - he was tasked with watching RHOSL in order to be allowed to step Behind The Rope. For a true comedy of errors and to have all your RHOSL questions answered, vent, see if your own thoughts are aligned, tune in now. #blessed.</p><br><p><br></p><p>Available now at<strong> </strong><a href="https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope</strong></a></p><br><p><br></p><p>@gayishpodcast</p><p>@behindvelvetrope</p><p>@davidyontef</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>

<p>The Real Housewives of Orange County's Lynne Curtain Steps Behind The Rope.&nbsp;Checking in from beautiful and sunny Orange Country, Lynne is here for some fun.&nbsp;Some fun and to tell it all.&nbsp;Let us start at the beginning.&nbsp;Lynne takes us back to when she was first cast to step behind the gates of Coto de Caza in Season Four of the hit Bravo show.&nbsp;Lynne walks us through how she was cast on RHOC, who she knew before being cast and some of the story lines we saw regarding her life as they played out on national television.&nbsp;We also discuss how Lynne handled her newfound fame and the ramifications it had on her personal life.&nbsp;We discuss how The Real Housewives of Orange Country has changed since the early days and how reality tv, in general, is a whole new landscape in the modern age. Of course we discuss the status of Lynne's current relationships with other OC staples such as Vicki Gunvalson, Tamra Judge, Jeana Keough, Gretchen Rossi, Lydia McLaughlin, Emily Simpson, Heather Dubrow, Lizzie Rovsek, and the Peggys Sulahian and Tanous.&nbsp;We also talk about the times she has crossed paths with Kyle Richards, Lisa Vanderpump and Stephanie Hollman.&nbsp;It is the OC after all, so we had to get Lynne’s takes on her “friendships” with Paul Nassif and Terry Dubrow.&nbsp;We couldn’t resist asking for #tea when we learned that her daughters knew some of the cast of Laguna Beach.&nbsp;It really is a small world.&nbsp;We discuss the departure of Vicki and Tamra and the current casting choices.&nbsp;Finally, no chat with Lynne Curtin would ever be complete without a discussion of her iconic, classic, one of a kind "Lynne Curtin Cuffs".

<p>Southern Charm’s Landon Clements steps back Behind The Rope.&nbsp;Welcome back.&nbsp;There is a LOT going on this current season on Southern Charm and who better than to dish current Season Southern Charm than someone who is not only real life friends with the current cast, but someone who has been on the show herself. Enter Landon Clements.&nbsp;Checking in from her home in Los Angeles CA, Landon is taking a break from closing those Real Estate deals to chat about all her friends back home in Charleston, South Carolina.&nbsp;First we chat with Landon about who we do not see this season on Southern Charm - the max exodus of Series’ Regular Women - Cam, Naomi, Chelsea and Eliza.&nbsp;Landon discusses the real circumstances surrounding Cameran Eubanks’ departure and whether or not it truly had to do with those rumors Kathryn Dennis started about Cameran’s husband Jason, who has not appeared on the show.&nbsp;Turning our attention to newbies, we discuss Leva and Lamar, the racial diversity they brought to the show, and answer the question just how much was this racial diversity needed on a show like Southern Charm?&nbsp;We also discuss newbie hottie John Pringle. Landon discusses what he is like in real life, his true ties to the group and how she thinks he is doing on the show.&nbsp;Of course, we also discuss his interest in Austen’s girlfriend Madison LeCroy and her noted absence from John’s “in real life” Birthday party in Charleston, South Carolina that Landon attended last month during a quick trip home. Say what??? Landon also discusses Austen and Madison, their current relationship and whether they have what it takes to “go the distance”.&nbsp;We also discuss other new couple, Shep and Taylor, we did not see this one coming, who just visited Landon in Los Angeles for a fun weekend. Do tell. She does.&nbsp;Landon gives us all her predictions for Southern Charm’s most famous bachelors Craig, Austen and Shep, chats updates about Miss Patricia, and lets us know when she last spoke to Whitney and Thomas.&nbsp;Finally, we discuss Kathryn - her “inappropriate” use of the Monkey Emoji earlier this year which went viral, how she still has a job when the likes of Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute have been terminated, and just how all of this is going to play out before our very eyes over the next few weeks on Southern Charm.</p><br><p>@alandonclements</p><p>@behindvelvetrope</p><p>@davidyontef</p><br><p>Bonus Episodes Available at<strong> - </strong><a href="https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope</strong></a></p><br><p><br></p><p>This episode is brought to you by Duke Cannon.

<p>Below Deck’s EJ Jansen steps Behind The Rope.&nbsp;Checking in from his home in Victoria, Canada, EJ is here to tell it all.&nbsp;Let us start at the beginning. EJ knew our fearless leader Captain Lee for several years before Lee appeared on our TV sets on the hit Bravo show.&nbsp;EJ talks about how he met Captain Lee and how that working relationship and friendship began.&nbsp;He explains how he got involved with Below Deck, yes it was because of Captain Lee and an unexpected source, Jay Z, yes Jay Z, what filming the show was like and just how “real” is Below Deck. EJ discusses his first impressions of Kate Chastain, how those impressions changed over the course of the season, and what the status of their relationship is like today.&nbsp;He discusses the level of actual “work” Kate did in her job as Chief Stew during their season together versus being treated like a reality television personality filming one of Bravo’s top rated TV shows.&nbsp;EJ analyzes why he thinks Below Deck is one of the highest rated Bravo shows of all time and sheds light onto just how hard that show is to film logistically.&nbsp;EJ shares stories of real life charters with Billionaires, Millionaires and famous faces such as Paris Hilton and Dennis Rodman.&nbsp;He also explains the power boat owners have to demand the staff act and look a certain way and just how behind the times the yachting industry may be in terms of, not only the “me too” movement but also diversity and inclusion. Finally, amid Covid, EJ provides a ground breaking way to film the next seasons of Below Deck / Below Deck Med, an idea we deem brilliant that you must listen to to believe!!

<p>Below Deck's newest Stew, Elizabeth Frankini, steps Behind The Rope.&nbsp;With the epic new season of Below Deck underway, Elizabeth is here so we can get to know her a little better.&nbsp;The woman behind what we have seen on TV these first few weeks of the show.&nbsp;In one of her first interviews, well ever, Elizabeth chats about her freshman season on the hit Bravo show.&nbsp;She explains how she got into yachting and how “Below Deck”, the TV show, is perceived in the yachting industry.&nbsp;Elizabeth explains how she was cast as one of this season's Stews, how the Below Deck Charters differ from Real World Charters, the most high maintenance guests she has ever had, both on and off camera, the biggest tip she has ever received, and what she likes and dislikes most about the job of Yachtie Stew.&nbsp;Elizabeth gives us a few hints on what we can expect this season of Below Deck and how it differs from prior seasons.&nbsp;She hints at a few romantic entanglements but lets us know that we will have to just wait and see.&nbsp;She also hints at a few moments which may make her cringe as the season progresses and she watches along with the rest of us.&nbsp;Elizabeth also discusses the disappointment she experienced when she realized her Chief Stew would not be Icon Kate Chastain.&nbsp;Speaking of Kate Chastain, Elizabeth discusses how new Below Deck Chief Stew, Francesca Rubi, differs from Kate Chastain and whether, after working with Francesca for this past season, she thinks she would still prefer Kate as a boss.&nbsp;Finally, we discuss just how fun it will be to save this interview and check in with Elizabeth toward seasons end, to see just how much she has changed as a person as a result of spending one season abroad one of Bravo TV’s highest rated shows. Welcome Elizabeth! Cannot wait to get to know ya better!</p><br><p><br></p><p>@bettabird</p><p>@behindvelvetrope</p><p>@davidyontef</p><br><p>Bonus Episodes Available at<strong> - </strong><a href="https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope</strong></a></p><br><p><br></p><p>This episode is brought to you by Duke Cannon.

<p>Don Gunvalson and Lee Radziwill step Behind The Rope.&nbsp;Ok, it is Jordan and Justin Meyers, the famous, or as some say infamous, Brothers behind these two well known Twitter Monikers.&nbsp;First off, we discuss how these Brothers decided to become Twitter sensations in the Housewives world.&nbsp;We say sensations, but some say Blocked By.&nbsp;In fact, as of air date, Don Gunvalson and Lee Radziwill are blocked by several Housewives including, but not limited to, Kyle Richards, Shannon Beador, Tamra Judge, and Kelly Dodd.&nbsp;Not a bad record.&nbsp;Of course, we also discuss what Vicki Gunvalson and Carole Radziwill had to say when they contacted the boys.&nbsp;We can only imagine.&nbsp;These two boys are here here to bring the shade.&nbsp;We discuss every franchise: RHOBH (Who really lives in Beverly Hills and who doesn’t, we told you these boys are shady); RHONY (Cast shake ups, anyone); RHOP (This epic Season 5 and the Monique / Candiace physical altercation); RHOA (Give Marlo a Peach and Nene’s ongoing contract issues); RHONJ (David’s IRL Friends); RHOC (How does one get blocked by more than half the current cast); RHOD (How will the franchise be without LeeAnne Locken?); RHOSL (Coming Soon).&nbsp;Their tweets actually caused a major feud at a RHONY reunion past between Carole Radziwill and Luann de Lesseps.&nbsp;Then there was the time that the Lee Radziwill Twitter account was mentioned on Odd Mom Out by Abby Elliot’s Character. Also, have you seen their twitter this past week when PK, yes our friend PK, came for them for making a comment about our beloved Dorit NOT knowing this was not the real Don Gunvalson &amp; Lee Radziwill. We just cannot!!! These are THE Twitter Accounts that have all the Housewives’ attention, and for good reason! You do NOT want to miss this one!!!</p><br><p>@jordanrossmyers</p><p>@behindvelvetrope</p><p>@davidyontef</p><br><p>Available Today&nbsp;<strong> - </strong><a href="https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope</strong></a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
