He knows the skinny on everything reality tv, and Melissa has him on the show this week!

Melissa chats it up with the viral sensation and TikTok creator, Zachary Reality, to get his opinions on the season finale of The Bachelor, why every Housewives franchise needs a "voice of reason" in the cast, and why the game of The Traitors has some striking similarities to the games played on RHONJ.

Plus we get Zachary's take on the recent drama in the Summer House, the various Vanderpump spinoffs, and why Tom Sandoval may have slightly redeemed himself after his appearance The Traitors.
