Hot Garbage

It's been a long month for us, but here we are! We're getting back on track and we're possibly rebranding a little bit? Laura may have some VERY unrealistic ideas of episode lengths? Share Time stars off with Laura "de-influencing" the world from the stupid things she comes acorss on Tiktok, Stephanie has multiple topics of Britney Spears' birthday, Joey winning Dancing With The Stars, and Schwartz & Sandy's closing which then leads into some discussion about the Vanderpump Rules reboot and if anyone has checked on Scheana, and Tyler has finally broken down and started watching a Real Housewives series. Then it's onto Survivor, which one of us may have only watched last week's episode and is not on the same page as everybody else. Who could it be? Tune in and find out!

Another two week catch up because some of us had busy weeks last week! For Share Time, Laura goes on a rant about the movie Trap, Stephanie talks about how she's loving the "something stupid" trend on TikTok, and Tyler tells the unfortunate tale about ordering some Halsey albums on vinyl. Then we recap the last two weeks of Survivor and how much we love Teeny and will not criticize her in any way, what we think about how certain people played/are playing, and how Andy is a chaotic genius.

We disappeared for a week again. We're sorry, but we can't promise we wont happen again. Laura talks about how being medicated has helped her life and encourages everyone who's thought about it to give it a try. Stephanie watched The Substance and tells us about it. And Tyler recaps what he hinted at last episode, which was a disaster of a home run derby he went and saw. What can we say about Big Brother.... It started off well, then fell off HARD. Survivor however, has been getting good! Join us for the only trash talk that matters! Follow us on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook @hotgarbagepod https://linktr.ee/hotgarbagepod

LOTS of talk about how to make this our full-time jobs, and Tyler has a way to do it fast. Share time starts with Laura asking Tyler and Stephanie (but mostly Stephanie) for horror movies to watch with her boyfriend for this month, Stephanie updates us on Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright's divorce and we OF COURSE make fun of Jax again, and Tyler has absolutely nothing to talk about because what he wanted to talk about wasn't happening until after we were done recording. Then we get caught up on thew last 2 weeks of Big Brother, which has honestly kind of fallen off and become predictable now. Then it's time for Survivor, and Laura has some possibly controversial thoughts about someone, but Stephanie and Tyler agree with her. Join us for the only trash talk that matters!

We're all extremely tired for various reasons and we're also not going to watch The Golden Bachelorette. Share time starts with Laura's new favorite show, The Sopranos, and why it's so great. Tyler decides he'd rather be on Survivor than Big Brother. And Stephanie talks Dancing With The Stars. Well, mostly Joey, but still. Then we recap the last week and a half or so of Big Brother and give our thoughts on it. None of us really paid attention to Survivor, but we talk about the major points like the challenges, Andy's meltdown, and the shocking vote.

Switching out the alcohol for coffee and recording this one on a Saturday morning! So we're in rare form this week. For Share Time, Laura gives a lecture about universal healthcare, Stephanie talks about Kristen Doute getting engaged to Luke Broderick which then turns into us roasting the whole Vanderpump Rules cast, and Tyler gives a quick spoiler free update on The Anonymous and realizes it's going to be a much longer season than he anticipated. This season of The Bachelorette is finally over and we couldn't be happier! We talk about how everything went wrong from a bad group of men to choose from, Jenn being a little too immature for this show, and why the hell Maria got dragged into this drama at the end. Big Brother, on the other hand, gave us yet ANOTHER great week of episodes and we're dying for more and we hope they keep this format of the show around in the seasons to come!

This episode's late again because some of us are going through it right now, but at least it's here! Share time has Laura recounting an eventful wedding story, Stephanie does a taste test of one of Kyle Cooke's Loverboy drinks, and Tyler convinces Laura and Stephanie to watch The Anonymous We briefly talk about The Bachelorette, like VERY BRIEFLY. Then a good discussion on everything that's happened the last week on Big Brother and how happy we are that Tucker is finally gone! Join us for the only trash talk that matters!

Mercury retrograde has once again reared it's ugly head and chaos ensued as we recorded. Don't worry though, you only get to hear the best parts of it, including Laura's dog (check the YouTube video to see how cute she is) and some blooper content at the end of the episode! Laura makes a discovery involving Maddie Pruitt that lead her down a rabbit hole about a billionaire, his son, and a basketball team. Stephanie's upset at the Love Island reunion. And Tyler, who's feeling better this week, actually gives details about his trip to Boston. We're all pretty fed up with Jenn's decisions on this season of The Bachelorette. And we unfortunately only have one episode of Big Brother to really talk about because we recorded late last week, but what an episode it was! Join us for the only trash talk that matters!

We promise you, we're not becoming a bi-weekly podcast. We've just had a string of very bad luck recently that's kept us from recording. But we are back again and ready to talk shows! Laura starts share time off with a story about Target she's been holding onto for a while and takes advice from a friend about not avoiding politics as much on the show. Stephanie talks about giving The Affair a chance (after trying a few times before) strictly because of Katie Maloney and Dayna Kathan's podcast. And Tyler, who isn't feeling great, gives a VERY brief rundown of his trip to Boston. More from that will come next week when he feels better. Then we Laura and Stephanie talk about The Bachelorette because Tyler ejected from it. We discuss how Sam M can't form sentences to save his life and are SHOOK that Jenn didn't immediately walk him out after some very stupid things he said. Then it's time for our main event; Big Brother, which we all enjoyed this week! So many blindsides and unexpected events that have been making this season way better than it's been in some time!

Sorry for taking another week off, but people weren't feeling good and frankly, nothing really happened on The Bachelorette and Big Brother last week, but we still touched on a few things just to give y'all the important info. But as always, we start with Share Time! Laura talks about a couple of movies she's watched, one good and one not good. Tyler actually has a story about how saving a snake became more of a problem than it should've been. And Stephanie take's Tyler's place on the short Share Time by telling us how her learning Spanish on Duo Lingo is going. And onto our shows! We still really don't like any of the guys on The Bachelorette and mostly talk about why this season hasn't been good and start to question on whether or not we're going to keep watching. Big Brother, on the other hand, was SUPER entertaining and quite unhinged to be honest! But we're here for every second of it. Join us every Tuesday for the only trash talk that matters!

It's week two of Jenn's season of The Bachelorette and this week we have the added commentary of Laura's parents because she watched it at their house! Laura starts Share Time by talking about watching all of the Saw movies and her thoughts on them, Tyler makes an unfortunate discovery about aging, and we guide Stephanie into making up something to talk about on the spot by somehow getting into the topic of books. Then we get into this weeks episode of The Bachelorette, which was honestly kind of boring with the exception of some villain energy, but Laura mixes in her parents' reaction to seeing the show for the first time to add some much needed entertainment value.

I know we said last week that we're going to be uploading on Tuesdays now, but we're also recording on Tuesdays and the entire state of Texas lost internet all day on Tuesday, so we had to reschedule. But here we are! And so are several men that we don't like that our lovely Bachelorette, Jenn, has the misfortune of picking from! But first; Share Time! Laura tells a tale of how stupid people are in her local community Facebook group, Stephanie discovers the incredible Lifetime show "Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up" and we discuss how she and others have handled her media attention since being freed, and Tyler makes an apology for weird shit that happened in last weeks episode that couldn't be fixed, but hopefully are fixed this week! Then it's on to Jenn's introduction to all the men on this season of The Bachelorette and how few of them are actually likeable people. Who are the lucky few? Who goes home? What kind of predictions do we make after one episode? Tune in and find out! Join us every Tuesday for the only trash talk that matters!

QUICK NOTE: Episodes will now be released on Tuesdays. We explain why in the episode. To be honest, we forgot to plan something for this episode. So this one is ALLLLLL Share Time! I can't even really map out what we talked about because it mostly just tangent after tangent with a very loose structure of who's turn it is guide the conversation. Just some nice conversation between three friends who haven't seen each other in about a week and a half and catching up what we've been up to. We'll be back to talking reality TV next week with The Bachelor and Big Brother, but hopefully you enjoy a nice, cozy conversation this week.

It's time for another movie we love that Tyler hasn't seen! This week we watched Saved! For Share Time, Laura talks about her family letting her dog terrorize/play tag with a squirrel and also shows some adorable pictures of her dog (check out the YouTube video for some adorableness), Stephanie tells about a restaurant she went to called Darkside Pizza that we all fall in love with and even plugs the owner's YouTube channel, and Tyler goes on yet another rant about rude customers and their misplaced sense of entitlement. Then we get into Saved!, including Laura and Stephanie having a revelation about it despite having seen it numerous times. And we get Tyler's thoughts on his first time viewing it as well as get into several tangents, mostly about the show Weeds. Join us every Monday for the only trash talk that matters!

We're back! We missed a week because our original plan for the episode didn't feel like it would go well, so we regrouped and went a different route and decided to make Tyler watch movies he hasn't seen until our shows come back. This week, it's Sugar And Spice! But first! It's Share Time! Laura finally breaks down and gives The Handmaid's Tale a chance after a lot of hesitation (justifiably so), Stephanie talks about the Summerhouse reunion, and Tyler has no idea what to talk about because he accidentally overslept and was still trying to wake up in the recording, but manages to talk about seafood that he ate before Laura tries to give a hand and talk about the Red Sox beating the Phillies. Then finally, we get into Sugar And Spice. Did Tyler like the movie? Which girl do we see ourselves and each other as? Tune in and find out! Join us every Monday for the only trash talk that matters!

The world decided to surprise us with the men Jenn will be dating on this season of The Bachelorette AND it happened on a day we're recording! So we threw Vanderpump Rules and The Valley out the window and decided to focus on something MUCH more interesting. But first, Share Time! Laura discusses her newest binge watch; Seventh Heaven and how it doesn't necessarily age well, but it definitely aged hilariously, Stephanie tells us about how good both versions of Summerhouse are right now and how much she recommends them both, and Tyler teases one of the Netflix documentaries he watched this week called American Nightmare and the wild tale that it focuses on. Then its time for another fun-filled roast of the men of this season of the Bachelorette! Who do we like? Who do we hate? Who's the predetermined winner of OUR hearts and who gives us the creeps?

Laura and Tyler are back again because everybody's taking turns getting sick apparently and we can't have our usual three person podcast anymore. But this time we're sober and we don't ramble on for three hours! We DO however ramble a little bit during Laura's share time which starts with her talking about watching Scream Queens, but its not the one she thought she was going to watch and somehow made its way into Laura's experience with the Saw franchise and how the first one is apparently "unholy". Then Tyler congratulates the three of us as a podcast and thanks you lovely listeners for crossing 1000 downloads a few weeks ago and how he kept forgetting to bring it up over the last few episodes. This week's Vanderpump was probably the best episode of the season so far and it's a damn reunion episode?!? We only have one episode left and we talk about what we think of the future of the show and some of it's cast members. Speaking of one episode left, it's also the penultimate episode of The Valley, which Laura hasn't watched in a couple weeks. So Tyler stumbles his way through recapping the important parts of last week for her and then this week's episode while also wishing he hadn't been watching it. Then it's the Survivor finale! Which is one show we've actually enjoyed this season of and we give our thoughts on who's the villain, who won/deserved to win, and Laura catches us up on some of the drama that's happened after filming.

Laura wasn't feeling well, so it's a Stephanie and Tyler episode this week! And it's surprisingly tangent free, so it made for a pretty short episode, especially compared to last week's. Share time starts with Stephanie talking about her new Housewives binge and this time it's The Real Housewives of Miami and it's WAY better than Salt Lake City! Then Tyler simply laments the Texas heat and how it's only going to get worse. We're only at part one of three of The Vanderpump Rules reunion and we're already wondering why it needs to be three parts, so that pretty much sums up how well that went. Then it's off to The Valley where it feels like things are finally starting to happen only for it to end at the good part YET AGAIN and probably won't even resolve well, just like every other cliffhanger this season. Survivor, as always, is the most entertaining of our shows and this week definitely didn't disappoint. And then between Tyler's awful memory and Stephanie being the only one smart enough to give up on the show, we stumble our way through recapping the EXTREMELY predictable finale of The Amazing Race and yet again pray that this is the end of the 90 minute episodes they've forced upon us.

Laura and Tyler decided to keep Laura's birthday/graduation party going into this episode and had a drunkcast this week! Stephanie took the week off because she was definitely in need of a break, so we kept the party going! Share Time starts with Laura talking about how her friends and family threw her a surprise birthday/graduation party after almost two months of not talking to her and Tyler talks about an unwelcomed guest into his apartment. Then we take a long deep dive into this finale of Vanderpump Rules and talk about how possibly this whole Sandoval redemption arch was edited last minute with three short lines at the end of the episode and our reunion predictions. We're about ready to give up on The Valley because we think Bravo doesn't even believe in it. Followed by more simply prideful/greedy moves in Survivor leading to another elimination. Then we end on an extremely obscure baseball related episode of The Amazing Race that leads to a very funny deep dive for Laura and Tyler based off of old, fat, retired baseball players.

Sorry for the late episode! Tyler forgot he didn't finish editing, but at least you're getting an episode just the same. For Share Time, Laura tells us an epic tale about how drinking Vanilla Coke went horribly wrong for her. Stephanie watched The Idea of You and that leads us down a road of both One Direction, fan-fiction, and nepotism in Hollywood. And because Tyler both didn't prepare anything AND wanted to get on with the episode rather than go down yet another tangent, he simply holds up his coffee mug and lets you know that the Mothman believes in you. Then its another recap of this weeks shows. We're still pretty over this really weird season of Vanderpump and everybody trying to make Tom Sandoval look like a good guy. The Valley was also pretty boring and it feels like they did a another cliffhanger for yet another wasted fight and, to EVERYONE'S surprise, Jax is kind of an ass. Survivor had one of the best moments in reality TV we'd seen in a while, corporate sponsorship be damned, and surprisingly kept the whole 90 minutes interesting rather than a bunch of filler. The Amazing Race on the other hand did not. But hey, at least we're out of South America and into The Carribean.... which isn't that far away....
