Chapter 1: What were the highlights from Coachella?
Well, as new parents who still want to have an active life, still get out, still prioritize each other, have a couple date nights, we know how difficult it can be to find good childcare, find good babysitters, and make sure that we can still have fun with the peace of mind knowing that our little one is home safe and sound.
And if you're not sure where to look, look to Sitter City. Sitter City is not some endless scroll of random profiles. It's more like a curated experience, real reviews from parents, background checks, ID verification, and filters that actually work. Whether you need someone for a regular after-school gig or just a night out, you can find someone you trust.
You won't just find a sitter, you'll find the sitter.
Interested and available care providers will apply to the job posting describing their experience and how they'll be able to help the family. Families typically receive applications within two hours. Narrow down your options with detailed profiles, professional references, and parent reviews.
Since their founding, millions of families and sitters have trusted Sitter City to help them find child care or job opportunities. Along the way, they've been a leader in trust and safety and have developed processes and tools to help our community make decisions with greater confidence.
They have dedicated trust and safety team, sitter ID verification, request background checks, advanced scam protection, family watchdog screening, ongoing site content monitoring.

Chapter 2: What happened with Garcelle's exit from RHOBH?
Yeah, they can slam you back. We've been accused of slamming people online constantly, but we've never been shutting people down.
Yeah. No, yeah.
Take that note.
How do you guys shut... Anyways, what does she say?
A mom of a five-year-old has been bringing her daughter to Coachella. She said this was her third year she's gone to Coachella. Her third year or her... She says it's her daughter's third year going. Her third Coachella. And and people are calling her like a bad mom for taking her daughter to a festival, which I feel like is a weird thing to shame her about.
It's like, who knows if she's probably not staying all night. Like it's a date. It starts at what? Like 10 a.m.? It starts really early.
early yeah she she said there's always good and bad there was more good comments than bad but to me it's like okay have you ever been to Coachella do you know that it's all ages she said honestly this is the only festival I would bring her to I wouldn't bring her to a rave event EDC no way but I feel like Coachella is super safe you don't see people doing drugs she's never asked me like oh what is that person doing I don't see it myself so I think it's safe
Yeah, it's like there's bathrooms, there's a lot of food options, there's a lot of room to lay down if you want to lay a blanket out, take a little snooze in the sun.
There are certainly worse environments to bring a child.

Chapter 3: How is the Love Island spinoff different?
And Matt Rogers.
Chapter 4: What are the latest updates from Summer House?
And Matt Rogers and Celestia. It is crazy just doing putting anything on the Internet could turn into something like she just made a dance. How many people have made TikTok dances? Obviously, you've gone viral, make money off of that. But like to put it in a game that's worth that much. No one would have thought.
How often do you wash your sheets?
Like once a week? Why? Is that bad? Are we judging me? How often are you washing your sheets?
Me?
He doesn't wash his sheets.
Before I had a lady in my life?
Yes. You don't want to know.
Twice a year.
Stop it.
