Reality TV Obsessions, Cookbook Recommendations, and Must-Watch Shows This Week

This is my weekly roundup of links and recommendations. If we talked IRL, I’d likely derail our entire conversation with “Sidebar, have you read | watched | listened | deep dived on this?”

This week I appeared on my pal Meredith Lynch’s podcast, Oddly Specific talking bibliotherapy, the Titanic, AG, Carson Daly (?) and more!

Have you watched?

I will watch Cate Blanchett talk about anything. No explanation needed.

This made me absolutely howl.

@sam_d0llwould love a psychologist to weigh in #storytime #funny

Who else is watching Top Chef? Is anyone else noticing they’ve only booted women so far?. . .

Also watching Summer House and please keep an eye on men in your life. If they announce a pivot to a DJ career, it may be too late.

Real Housewives of Atlanta is also KILLING ME. I can’t believe the interest in the hot dog king.
