You've Got a Friend in Me (with Richie Skye)

Sarah wakes up on surgery day with a pit in her stomach. No, not what doctors will be removing on this holy day. She hasn't had her fave travel guide Bravoholic on the pod in a minute - and not a moment too soon. So she books a trip to Wisconsin (not because her guest lives there, she wants to build a monument to Britani’s toast), and Zooms up her pal, Richie Skye (pop culture expert and travel enthusiast). After discussing Richie's love of self care through globe trotting, they unpack Bronwyn's possible Little Monsters identity, the characteristics Britani shares with OG RHONY castmates, Heather's continued work as chess master, the tension between Lisa Barlow, Angie, Whitney, and Bronwyn, and of course, Karen Huger.

The organization empowers Muslims, Jews and allies to bridge divisions and leverage shared values to strengthen our communities and our fragile democracy. https://mjnewground.org/Standing Together: Standing Together  is a progressive grassroots movement mobilizing Jewish and Palestinian citizens of Israel against the occupation and for peace, equality, and social justice. We know that the majority have far more in common than that which sets us apart and only a tiny minority benefits from the status quo. The future that we want — peace and independence for Israelis and Palestinians, full equality for everyone in this land, and true social, economic, and environmental justice — is possible. To achieve this future, we must stand together as a united front: Jewish and Palestinian, secular and religious, Mizrahi and Ashkenazi, rural and urban, and people of all genders and sexual orientations. As the largest Jewish-Arab grassroots movement in Israel, we are committed to creating an alternative to our existing reality and building the political strength to make this transformation possible. https://www.standing-together.org/enSolutions Not Sides: Solutions Not Sides has been teaching skills of empathy, active listening, communication, critical thinking and conflict resolution through exploration of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict since 2010. Our programme is based on three key values: non-violence, equality for all, and the rejection of hatred.https://solutionsnotsides.co.uk/Israel Trauma Coalition: The Israel Trauma Coalition provides a holistic-collaborative approach that includes knowledge, tools and resources for optimal emergency preparedness, professional support, focused on the rapid recovery of the individual, community and strengthening national resilience. https://israeltraumacoalition.org/en/Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF): PCRF is the primary humanitarian organization in Palestine, delivering crucial and life-saving medical relief and humanitarian aid where it is needed most. Access to essential resources like food, clean water, and healthcare is severely limited. Urgent action is needed.
