Colonel Nimrod

Season 9, Episode 12

This week on Scandalous Diamonds, Jennifer wraps up Jackie Collins’ Lady Boss with all the juicy details you’ve been waiting for—scandals, sass, and the kind of drama only Collins can deliver. Meanwhile, Jen takes us on a wild detour to a spa day gone hilariously wrong, involving a surprise skin bleach and a lifetime of regrets.

The girls also tackle life’s greatest mysteries, like why church names you see from the highway are so utterly confusing. Are they places of worship or an MLM for salvation? And hold onto your pearls: there’s a cannibalistic opera in Germany that’s injuring theater-goers, and the story is so bizarre it left the girls flabbergasted (and maybe rethinking their opera bucket lists).
