With Betsy out of town last week, JJ was joined by a friend and Executive Producer (we’ll call her "EP") for a very special episode of Producer’s Corner! You guys sent in a ton of GREAT questions, and we got so much great content that we're going to split this into 2 episodes, with Part 2 dropping early next week!

"EP" has produced such shows as The Real Housewives of New York, Pump Rules, The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Texicanas, Southern Charm, Manzo’d With Children, and Million Dollar Listing: Los Angeles just to name a few!

June 20, 2022 RealityBites Producer's Corner: All Cast Trips Edition
In this week's Producer's Corner, JJ takes us behind the curtain answering BTS questions from our listeners (and Betsy, of course)! Who plans and pays for cast trips? What does "owning" a trip really mean? How much storyline planning do cast and producers really do before a season starts? And how much did E! cough up for only an hour of filming Kris Jenner's 60th birthday bash? We've got all these answers and more!

Also, while we skipped episode recaps this past week, don't you worry, we'll be back with more episodes this week for the premiere of Southern Charm (with a very special guest) and much more!
