Join Heather and Maria as they break it all down, drinking at the cringe. Stick around for the categories!
Episode #27
In Season 1, Episode 5 of Southern Charm, the polished Southern façade starts to crack as relationships get messier and egos take center stage. Thomas Ravenel continues his pursuit of Kathryn Dennis, despite growing concern from the group about their age gap and his intentions. Kathryn, meanwhile, leans in—raising eyebrows and fueling gossip. Across the group, tension builds as Cameran Eubanks and Shep Rose provide commentary on the chaos, balancing humor with some side-eye at Thomas’s behavior. The episode leans heavily into Charleston’s social expectations, where reputation is everything—but cracks are starting to show. Join us for all the drama--we'll see you at our table at JD's Caroline Day party! Stick around for the categories and a mini profile of JD.
Episode #26
Season 1, Episode 4 of Southern Charm, “Is She or Isn’t She?”, leans hard into the rumor mill—and in Charleston, whispers travel fast. The episode centers around the growing speculation that Thomas Ravenel’s much younger girlfriend, Kathryn Dennis, might be pregnant. Kathryn’s behavior and the couple’s whirlwind, very public relationship have everyone talking, especially since Thomas is still trying to rehabilitate his image and re-enter political life. The uncertainty (“is she or isn’t she?”) becomes the main topic of conversation among the group. Meanwhile, Cameran Eubanks continues to play observer and voice of reason, questioning the stability of Thomas and Kathryn’s relationship and whether either of them is ready for such a serious step. Shep Rose and Craig Conover weigh in with their usual mix of skepticism and humor, while Jenna King deals with her own relationship doubts. By the end of the episode, nothing is fully confirmed, but the tension is definitely building—both around Kathryn’s possible pregnancy and the group’s growing concern that this fast-moving relationship could have major consequences. It’s classic Southern Charm: equal parts gossip, charm, and looming drama. Stick around until the end for our categories!
Episode #25
The Charleston crew proves that if there’s one thing they’re committed to, it’s day drinking with a side of denial. Shep Rose continues his tour of Charleston bars like it’s a full-time career, while casually insisting he’ll settle down someday… just not today, tomorrow, or anytime in the foreseeable future. His friends start questioning whether Peter Pan will ever actually leave Neverland. Meanwhile, disgraced politician turned socialite chaos agent Thomas Ravenel is still trying to convince everyone that he’s a serious, responsible adult while simultaneously throwing lavish parties and flirting with 21-year-old Kathryn Dennis. Kathryn is clearly getting more entangled in Thomas’s world, which raises a lot of eyebrows among the group—especially because the age gap and power dynamic are impossible to ignore. Across town, real estate agent and reluctant voice of reason Cameran Eubanks spends much of the episode reacting to the group’s antics the same way the audience does: with a mix of fascination and disbelief. She and the other women start quietly discussing the Kathryn-Thomas situation, wondering if this whirlwind “relationship” is heading toward disaster. The episode builds toward another Charleston social gathering where the drinks are flowing, gossip is circulating, and tensions around Kathryn’s place in the group become increasingly obvious. By the end, it’s clear the social lines are starting to form—and Kathryn is very much on the outside looking in. In short: the bourbon is flowing, the judgment is subtle but deadly, and Charleston society is already sharpening its knives. Stick around until the end for the categories!
