Welcome to Episode IV of Masters of Reality! It’s an HONOR to have the legend Danny Tamberelli - Nickelodeon star, DIY punk, and Pete & Pete icon who’s made a career by carving his own path. From The Mighty Ducks and All That to rocking with his band Jounce and running the Seltzer King Podcast Network, Danny continues to inspire with his creativity, humor, and effortlessly cool attitude. There are tons of killer stories in this one, from ripping with Iggy Pop to working odd jobs just to keep the fire burning. Danny’s been a hero of mine since I was a kid, and I’m beyond stoked to have him here.

Welcome to Episode III of Masters of Reality! Stoked to have my good friend Carolyn as a guest on this episode of the pod. For me, the importance of this episode is that even though we talk about reality TV and our experiences on it, it’s really an episode for the misfits and the fans who feel they don’t quite fit in. We take a deep dive into what makes Carolyn Carolyn! We talk about what it was like for her not fitting in as a child, her journey toward self-acceptance and sobriety, and how it all connects to her time on Survivor.

This is an episode about self belief, self love, self acceptance, and blowing off a little steam. The episode wraps up with a makeshift final tribal, featuring zero-vote legends Sugar from Gabon and Owen from Season 43, along with two-time ripper David Wright. They ask Carolyn some pointed questions about what she might do differently and how she feels about her journey now.

HOPE YOU ENJOY

Welcome to the debut episode of Masters of Reality, where I (Ben Katzman - a touring musician, artist, and one-time Survivor castaway) invite my favorite reality stars, rock n rollers, and cultural misfits to swap stories and riffs in a vibe that’s half backstage hang, half Wayne’s World.

Honored to introduce my first guest, reality icon and platinum chiller Parvati Shallow todiscuss all things from being a platinum ripper in the world of reality TV to becoming a mother and waving her freak flag high. We also turn her new memoir Nice Girls Don’t Win into a punk rock anthem for the listeners at home.
