Happy New Year everyone! Seasons wrapping up, and ramping up - enjoy!

JANUARY 3RD

RHOA, S8E9, 2016

Todd and Phaedra get together to discuss the money she owes him for her unreleased exercise video, and when he comes with printouts and evidence, she agrees to pay him.

Kenya talks to her dad about him moving their family out to Houston and her running away from there and back to Detroit, which led to them not talking for five years. This is an emotional moment where he tells her that he felt bad because her doing it made him feel he wasn't good enough and wasn't trying to better his family's life.

We then see Porsha tell her sister Lauren that the fact she is pregnant is going to get in the way of her assisting Porsha, and that she's going to have trouble finding another assistant and that this is affecting her - and their - livelihood. How fucked up!

RHOBH, S7E5, 2017

Erika recounts the events of panty gate with Micky, so everyone can learn about what dicks Dorit and P.K. are.

Dorit throws a lunch party with Rinna and Elliot Mintz (the man who talks in metaphors and poems, known to be the only person other than Rinna at the table when Dorit "touched up her makeup" at her dinner party.) Rinna talks about how Eileen's mother died during last year's reunion, and she didn't want to talk about it, but maybe it affected her behaviour and changed how she would react to things, especially with her behaviour with LVP. P.K, a constant asshole, says that people should tell someone if they are grieving and that she should have told everyone. That it's not fair for people to hide their pain - apparently you can only be nice to people if you think or know there is something going on with them!

Rinna obviously told Eileen what went down at lunch, so when Dorit and Eileen go for a walk on the beach, she decides to confront Dorit. She asks about what was said and why it was said, and Dorit completely denies that Eileen was even brought up!

We finally meet Eden Sassoon, who will be in the middle of the drama for her one and only season! We learn that of course, she is the daughter of Vidal Sassoon, the famous hairstylist, and she is Rinna's pilate instructor!

RHONJ, S8E12, 2018

Hey reddit over spring break I researched my family history I'm a direct descendant of William de Burgh, a Norman adventurer that came over to England in 1066. After researching him I have found that he claimed to be a descendant of Charlemagne. I just want to know if this has been proven or disproven, thanks

Why does Richard Williams (father of Venus and Serena) get a significantly more favorable public portrayal than Earl Woods (Tiger's dad)?

Growing up, I feel like I never heard a kind word said about Earl Woods. They'd make jokes about him on SNL, pretending he'd glue a golf club into Tiger's hands and he was such a psycho parent and terrible husband.

Now I'm hearing a lot more about Richard Williams, who seems similar to Earl, but also worse in almost every way, and I don't understand why he's so much more respected and admired.

He legit has no idea how many kids he has, one of his own kids guesses as many as 20. He admits to hiding his wife's birth control to get her pregnant. He went out of his way to put the kids in dangerous Compton because he thought it would make them tougher, which ultimately led to one of Venus & Serena's sisters getting shot and killed.

What am I missing?
