Reality Roots episodes

  • Sally Jessy Raphael: My Daughter's Boy Crazy!

    This week, Sally does her best Jenny Jones impression, by pushing so hard I'm forced to defend the indefensible. All the 90s hits are here, and they each brought their own individual vest for the occasion.


    Special guests including Skeet Ulrich, Halle Berry, J-ROC and EXTRA SPECIAL MUSICAL APPEARANCES by Dolly Parton and Katy Perry!

    Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    1 hr 43 min
  • Jenny Jones: You're Busted, I Know You're A Dog!

    Jenny Jones talks to some sisters, mainly sisters who come from the same mister, who may or may not all be sleeping with the same man. The man in question has as much game as Steve Urkell, so that makes sense.


    Special Guest Appearances including: Bo from Superstore, Karla Homolka, and a full college cohort that was apparently kidnapped from their local kegger.

  • Out of Office Alert
    TLDR: Due to recent events (including but not limited to life, summer, and the pursuit of happiness), I am forced to take a one week leave of absence. I apologize for any inconvenience. Can't wait to talk to you all again next week!

  • Jerry Springer: Stripper Updates

    Updates from Strippers who have previously appeared on the Jerry Springer Show. The true epitome of "Hot Mess" in every sense of the word. Except, you know, temperature-wise.


    Special Guest Appearances including Vinny of Jersey Shore/Staten Island, Anne Hathaway/Winona Ryder and a quick peek at THE Al Borland, of Tool Time Fame!

  • Phil Donahue: Men Who Are Great Lovers

    Phil Donahue interviews some guests who are in exceptionally healthy relationships, at least as far as 1988 goes. People from home call in to bring their main-character energy questions to the esteemed panel of happy couples. One caller has a Bert & Ernie situation that completely breaks Phil Donahue's mind.


    Special Guest Appearances including Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Peter Gallagher's eyebrows, and Kyle McLochlan

  • Ricki Lake: I'm Gay, But Today I Want to Try Going the Other Way!

    HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!!! In honor of Pride this year, I found an episode of Ricki Lake I can only describe as "Extremely Gay in the Best Way"


    No extra special guest shout-outs this month, but if you're reading this, please know that Roger's date fell apart when they went roller skating because the moment Roger stepped onto the roller rink and the DJ played Ray of Light by Madonna.... there was absolutely no denying he's a Queen (and always will be)

  • Sally Jessy Raphael: Mom, Choose Your Boyfriend or Me

    This week, Sally and I review some family dynamics that are not good. Can mother and current-boyfriend ever get the kids on board with their relationship? What is step-dad Pete saying? Who's the gold-digger? Find the answers to all these questions AND MORE in this week's recap!


    Special guest appearances including: Bea Arthur, the Babadook, and Chappell Roan

  • Jenny Jones: Brothers Who Slept with the Same Woman Get Paternity Tests

    Jenny Jones re-creates your 6th grade classroom sex education experience by asking guests for a million juicy details that no one within 5 miles is mature enough to discuss. We also look at some baby photos as part of an at-home DIY paternity test for no discernible reason.


    Special Guests including Audrina Patridge, Colbie Smulders, and Snoop Dogg!

  • Jerry Springer: I'm A 14 Year Old Prostitute!

    Join me this week as I do my best to pick apart a hot mess of a Jerry Springer episode. They're about to jump the shark and they're starting by blurring the lines of reality for us.


    Special Guest Appearances including the head mean girl from Romi and Michelle's highschool reunion, RFK Jr and Pepé Le Pew in human form (barely)

    1 hr 19 min
  • Ricki Lake: Stop Sleeping with Your Ex!

    Ricki Lake talks to some ex-couples who can't keep their hands to themselves and one couple that is probably definitely about to break up.


    Special Guests including Steven Seagal, Kirsten Dunst, and the late great Brittany Murphy RIP
