Andy Cohen drags Howie Mandel’s Tom Sandoval interview: ‘Didn’t do his homework’

Andy Cohen has critiques.

The “Watch What Happens Live” host laughed at Howie Mandel’s interview with Tom Sandoval on Tuesday night’s show, claiming the podcast host “didn’t do his homework.”

After labelling Mandel a “jackhole,” Cohen accused the comedian of “apparently [not] know[ing] what he was getting himself into” when he spoke to Sandoval on the “Howie Mandel Does Stuff Podcast” earlier that same day.

“Now both Sandoval and Howie are being dragged on social media,” the Bravo exec, 54, said.

“Howie, you have to be careful before you take a side,” he continued. “Bravo fans are very passionate.”

“Like, the game show host?” she added. “The one who fist bumps you because he’s scared of germs? It’s so strange and so off brand. … What an odd choice.”

The interview, which reportedly “blindsided” Bravo producers, marked Sandoval’s first time addressing the scandal besides posting via Instagram and chatting with paparazzos.

In addition to detailing his “magnetic” chemistry with Leviss, the cover band frontman claimed he broke up with Ariana Madix before his infidelity made headlines in March.

Lala Kent also slammed Mandel’s “weird f–king” interview.

“I broke up with her on Valentine’s Day,” he alleged. “She was in complete denial and not accepting it.”

“Pump Rules” fans roasted Sandoval on Twitter after the sit-down, calling him a “vile piece of trash” and a “liar.”

One user wrote, “If you give a man the opportunity to ramble enough, if you give him enough rope, he will hang himself.”

“Vanderpump Rules” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
