Southern Hospitality is back and we’re recapping Season 4 Episode 1 Weiner Wars from a Charleston podcaster’s perspective.

Lauren (South Carolina attorney and Charleston local) and Dee (smart ass paralegal) break down the premiere drama at Republic on King Street, including the fallout from the reunion, the Trevor cheating rumors, and Maddie’s explosive confrontation at the Sir Wieners event.

We also talk about the real Charleston behind the show — from Republic’s nightlife scene to King Street, Barrister’s Ball, and the Ansonborough speakeasy poker room.

In this episode we discuss:

• Maddie still furious over the Trevor rumor

• Emmy and Will’s engagement and the law school drama

• Michaels vs Molly blowing up at Republic

• TJ’s “Cheater Wiener” hot dog event

• Charleston filming locations and local perspective

• Why reality TV relationships rarely survive the spotlight

If you love Southern Hospitality, and want Charleston gossip from a local's perspective, this recap is for you.
