Cole Brauer | 130 Days Alone at Sea: The First American Woman to Sail Around the World!
10/11/2026 | 1h 16 mins.#996. What would it take for you to spend 130 days completely alone in the middle of the ocean?
At just 29 years old, Cole Brauer became the first American woman to race solo, nonstop around the world, finishing SECOND in a competition dominated by men. But the 27,000-mile journey was only part of her story.
Cole joins Kaitlyn to share what life was really like aboard her 40-foot sailboat, from terrifying storms and a medical emergency that forced her to become her own nurse to the surprisingly relatable ways she kept herself entertained (including reality TV and a little online dating 👀).
But beyond the unbelievable survival stories, Cole opens up about the emotional toll of isolation, the unexpected struggles of returning home, and what it took to prove herself in an industry that repeatedly told her she didn't belong.
It's a conversation about finding confidence, refusing to shrink yourself, and discovering that sometimes the hardest part isn't being alone... it's coming back.
Cole's memoir, First Light, is available now!

Why are we so addicted to drama, even when we swear all we want is peace? Psychologist and author of Addicted to Drama, Dr. Scott Lyons, joins Kaitlyn to explain why we can't seem to look away from chaos, whether it's the latest celebrity scandal, the never-ending news cycle, or drama in our own lives. But what happens when all that chaos starts affecting our mental health?
Kaitlyn gets personal about her own healing journey, body dysmorphia, and the unhealthy patterns we sometimes don't even realize we're repeating. Dr. Scott explains why calm can feel so uncomfortable, how our nervous systems become accustomed to stress, and what it actually takes to break the cycle.
Tune in for Dr. Scott's advice on taking back control of your own healing and why, as he reminds us, it always takes two to tango!

Heather Dubrow is known for her champagne taste, gorgeous homes, and seemingly picture-perfect life, but what happens when you get her talking about... well, everything?
The Real Housewives of Orange County star joins Kaitlyn for a candid conversation about life beyond the cameras. Of course, there's a little behind-the-scenes Housewives drama and a tease about the upcoming reunion. But the conversation goes far beyond reality TV, including Heather's nearly 30-year relationship with Dr. Terry Dubrow and what she's learned about marriage along the way.
And in true Off the Vine fashion, the conversation goes in every direction! From guilty pleasures and expensive taste to family dynamics, growing older, and the hilarious little realities of everyday life, nothing feels too random. It's the kind of conversation that feels less like an interview and more like catching up with girlfriends.
Turns out, Heather Dubrow really is as put-together as she seems... but there's a whole lot more to her than meets the eye!

Nearly 20 years, 15 seasons, and one unforgettable table flip later, Teresa Giudice is sitting down with Kaitlyn Bristowe to revisit the moments that made her one of the most iconic Housewives of all time — and a few she wishes she could do differently.
From the early days of The Real Housewives of New Jersey to the family drama that played out in front of millions, Teresa is looking back at it ALL. She opens up about the moment she thought her television career was over, what really led to her long-awaited reconciliation with her brother Joe, and why she's finally ready to let go of the past. Plus, she's setting the record straight on some of RHONJ's most infamous moments, including the table flip, Andy Cohen shove, and yes… those damn sprinkle cookies!!!
With Season 15 on the way and her third memoir, The Queen of New Jersey, coming November 17th, Teresa is entering a new chapter — but does she regret any of the decisions that got her here? And knowing everything she knows now, would she still say yes to Housewives? Pour a glass, Vinos. This one's for the Bravo fans!
