December 02, 2021 18:57 - 1 hour - 76.9 MB

Mary Payne chats with the hilarious Keisha of 'The Libra Lounge with Keisha' about the various things going on in the Bravoverse! Keisha, as always, has some REAL opinions so don’t come at MP with the DMs. (That’s a joke, we’re just joking! It’s all jokes. Seriously, don’t come at me.) Keisha has never really watched all of RHONY so she’s fascinated by Ramona and LuAnn on RHUGT! She promises to watch all seasons before coming back to Pink Shade. She loves Heather Dubrow and we both have some...

November 11, 2021 22:41 - 1 hour - 66.5 MB

November 08, 2021 13:00 - 1 hour - 65.6 MB

Mary Payne is joined by Kimberly of A Date with Dateline podcast to talk about this week’s Life After Lockup episode, “Confessions of a Serial Liar." Wow, Stan is really leaning in to this whole “old man and his underwear” thing, right? Shawn and Sara go to Pound Town and then he tells her he actually DOES have kids (just 6) and WAS engaged to another inmate. Britney overreacts and Cousin Bink is hot. Lacey calls John, who has had a “makeunder," but at least he’s clean and has a new girlfrie...

Mary Payne chats with “friend of the pod” Katie of A Date with Dateline podcast about 90 Day Fiance The Other Way: “Stop the Excuses!" Neither one of us watched the scene with Sumit’s parents and the nose holes and we are NOT sorry about it! We have LOTS of thoughts on Steven and Alina as well as Kenny and Armando. Can’t Kenny just get his sunset vows? We didn’t see much of Ellie and Victor but we know this - this is NOT the show these 2 (or the producers) were hoping to film. We don’t under...

November 02, 2021 00:58 - 47 minutes - 43.9 MB

Mary Payne chats with Bunkie Amye Archer about this week’s Life After Lockup, "Put a Ring On It." Amye lives for the Stan and Lisa segments and can’t wait for Lisa’s revenge! We feel happy that Nicolle Sr. and Tia look happy and healthy and feel sad that Daonte still thinks Nicolle Sr. will one day come back to him. We think Shawn and Sara’s mom look like a better match than Shawn and Sara... and we applaud Puppy’s resistance of Amber’s dance moves at the very brightly lit “club." And finall...

Erin is joined by our beloved Bunkie, Keisha of "The Libra Lounge With Keisha" podcast (click below to follow!).

Two Bunkie Trademarks emerge this week as MP described Ari's look and Erin discusses Binyam's sisters loving to torture her. Property Brother's Mouth - PBM (TM), and Other Peoples' Sisters - OPS (TM). Also, MP & Erin officially d...

372 - LALU recap (Poly Problems)

October 25, 2021 18:57 - 1 hour - 28.5 MB

MP and Erin dive into this week’s Love After Lockup episode, Poly Problems. Yes, we are concerned about Nicolle Sr’s “jitters” and how Tia is slowly becoming The Godfather. This Lacey and Shane fakery is annoying to us but not as annoying as the fakery of Britney and Ray’s scenes. We feel for Kristianna’s mom, Tammy, and pray the demons let go of Terra so she can object at the wedding! And like last week, we can’t get enough of Lisa’s deadpan stare at the camera like Jim from the Office! Fo...

October 19, 2021 19:13 - 1 hour - 27.6 MB

MP and Erin talk about the shocking SHANE twist at the end of this week’s Love After Lockup episode! We applaud Lisa for her sleuthing skills and wonder by 4pm seems to be Stan’s magic hour? Erin thinks Britney’s story is totally fake and MP thinks Amber shouldn’t poke the bear that is Sammy and his C.Everett Koop facial hair. We pray that the demons stay away from Kristiana and wonder how often Brittany goes swimming in her jeans. Timestamp: Chit chat ends around 15:20.

Mary Payne & Erin review the week in Bravo, and Good Lord, bless this mess because there's so much going on! We can't believe how low Candiace is going with her insults on Potomac, but we were glad to see the shockingly calm (and dare we say, mature?) conversation between Brooks Marks & Jen Shah on Salt Lake. Over on Vanderpump Rules, James Kennedy continues to win us over with his sweet proposal to Raquel. (Yay for love!! Let's have a puppy party!!). And of course, we dive into the big mome...

Will Jenny be literally eaten by wild monkeys? Who knows. But we do hope SteVen WITH A V gets run over by a truck before he can deep-throat another Turkish chocolate.  Follow us on Twitter & Instagram @pinkshadepod and TikTok @pinkshadepodcast (Keep your expectations low for Tik-Tok!)

There's lots to catch up on this season, but Erin's main questions are: Why does Jenny still believe Sumit will marry her? And how did her hair get even DIRTIER this season? Who is this Victor character, really? Can Ari please just be left on this Yoni Steamer forever so we never have to deal with her again? Also: E...

October 04, 2021 18:54 - 1 hour - 80.7 MB

It’s the glorious return of Erin to the podcast! Erin is so grateful that she was able to take the time to focus on her mental health and encourages anyone feeling they need a break to take one. She thanks Mary Payne as well as all the other podcasters who stepped in to help during her absence. But most importantly, we had to talk about these characters on this week’s LALU (The Sober Truth). We aren’t thrilled with Lacey and Shane’s gym acting this week! We too are worried about Nicolle Sr. ...
