Welcome back to another episode of Reality Digest! We are thoroughly enjoying yapping about all of our shows but are SO happy to say that Love Is Blind season 9 is officially behind us - what a train wreck. But fear not because we have a new train back on the track with Selling Sunset season 9 premiering this week. And this one is going to be a DOOZEY. The outfits and the drama are of course next level and as unbelievable as one of us ever owning a $20 million home. DWTS is really starting to heat up and we are LOCKED IN. Almost as locked in as Kourtney is on making her sister’s lives a living hell. Nonetheless, we predict an iconic season on the horizon. 

Reality Digest is part of Pop Cult, where we break down the wildest moments in reality TV and the week’s biggest celebrity stories.

Join us on Thursday for The Fame Files! This week we’re breaking down the, often forgotten, marriage and inevitable divorce of Scarlett Johansson & Ryan Reynolds.

Welcome to Pop Cult: The Fame Files

We’re throwing it back to the 80s this week to tell the story of the recording of the song “We Are The World”. We dive into the dynamics of having 40 of the biggest artists of the time coming together for a cause to record a song where no one person is truly the star of the show (cough, cough Prince). Perhaps our most pressing question: how did people get in touch back then? And was it a wall phone? And are they called wall phones? If you’re not familiar with this story, imagine like….Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, Harry Styles, Tate McRae, Billie Eilish, Justin Bieber…and many more, all collaborating on the same song on the same night.

We’ve got another lengthy Reality Digest coming your way this week. We’re both still perplexed by the shocking news of the Louvre heist but I think we conjured up some pretty compelling theories in our humble opinion. We also talk about the return of our favorite gaggle of girls - The Kardashians has made its return and Khloè had us cracking up the entire episode. And of course, we dissect the latest episode of all of our shows in our current lineup - one of which we’re praying to end (Golden Bachelor). A new week, a new Reality Digest and another episode of Avery being Dylan Efron’s absolute biggest hater and Julia calling for Robert to read her DM. We hope you love it :)

Welcome to Pop Cult: The Fame Files

Her death shocked Hollywood and beyond fueled decades of conspiracy theories. Was it an overdose or something more? Did a certain pair of politically powerful brothers have anything to do with it? Did she have ties to the Communist Party? In this episode of The Fame Files, we unpack the mystery of Marilyn Monroe’s death, her final hours, and the alleged truths behind one of pop culture’s most perplexing stories. After all, two things can be true at once, right?

From “The only thing I'm guilty of is being Shah-mazing” to prison inmate. When RHOSLC star Jen Shah was arrested for wire fraud and money laundering, NO ONE saw it coming - except whoever sent the feds to Beauty Lab that fateful day (allegedly). In this episode, we do a deep dive into how her scheme worked, who it hurt, and how her story became one of the most shocking moments in Real Housewives history.

They were Hollywood’s golden couple…until they weren’t. In this episode of The Fame Files, we look back at Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston’s relationship all the way up to their divorce and everything that happened beyond - including some updates from as recent as this year.
