“My Fake Tooth Fell Out in Front of a TV Exec… + Ex-Six Flags Employee Explains Why Humans Love Roller Coasters + Anna Nicole Episode 4 Recap” If you love Bravo, gay chaos, early-2000s reality TV, and expensive candles… you’re home. Welcome back to SHOW PONY, broadcasting live from my kitchen for a cozy, chaotic solo episode. Today I’m unboxing and reviewing two Diptyque candles (yes, two), sharing a deeply humbling story about the moment my fake tooth fell out in front of a very famous TV executive, and diving into Episode 4 of The Anna Nicole Show — one of the most unhinged and iconic episodes of early 2000s reality TV. In this episode, Anna gets extensive dental work, Bobby Trendy delivers her now-legendary couch, they plan her absurdly glam bedroom, Anna and the crew head to Magic Mountain, and Anna shares moments of same-sex attraction with her assistant Kimmee. As a former Six Flags employee, I also break down the science, psychology, and cultural obsession behind why humans love roller coasters… and why Anna Nicole absolutely should not have been on one. If you’re into Bravo energy, gay pop culture, vintage 2000s nostalgia, celebrity chaos, luxury candles, or just want to hear my dog make an adorable cameo—this is the episode for you.

THE ANNA NICOLE SHOW REWATCH BEGINS — ONLY ON SHOW PONY 🎀 I’ve been teasing this for months… and today, it’s finally happening.
We’re launching the ultimate rewatch of The Anna Nicole Show (2002) — one of the most chaotic, haunting, and unforgettable reality shows of all time. This all-solo episode is a wild ride: I recorded it once, lost the entire audio, and had to redo it from scratch. Maybe Anna wasn’t ready for her comeback yet 👀 Before diving into the rewatch, I start with:

🗣️ Messy White Gays & Pop Culture Vibes: The current energy on and offstage.
📺 Upcoming Show Pony Shows: What’s next this week + future rewatch teases. Then — it’s Anna Time. We dig deep into Anna Nicole Smith: her tranquilized presence, her heartbreaking charisma, and her reflection of fame and addiction in early 2000s America. As a former addict myself, her stillness and pain feel deeply familiar — it’s bittersweet and raw to watch knowing where her story ends. We cover every key player from The Anna Nicole Show:
💄 Howard K. Stern — the enigma: protector, partner, or puppet master?
👦 Daniel Smith — Anna’s son and the emotional center of her world.
👯‍♀️ Kim (Assistant) — chaotic sidekick energy.
🐶 Sugar Pie — the dog, the diva, the icon. This is the definitive Anna Nicole Smith rewatch — where we explore fame, femininity, addiction, and the surreal magic of early 2000s reality TV.

Then Natalie detonates a Bravo-universe bombshell: Countess Luann invited her to the Hamptons, and she stayed three days. You will not believe this story.

"The one woman I ever slept is here. We go from high school hookups to rehab reunions to reviewing her sister’s insane new movie.”

This week on SHOW PONY with John Hill, things get personal — and cinematic. John welcomes Randi Newton, the one woman he’s ever slept with, for a reunion that covers decades of friendship, mischief, and full-circle moments. They go deep into their high school history (yes, she was Andrew Rannells’ prom date), that one wild night, and how fate brought them back together years later when Randi ended up working at the rehab John checked into. Plus, they dive into the outrageous new film “F My Son”, a John Waters-style shock-fest starring Randi’s sister Tipper Newton. From Rocky Horror Picture Show at a goat farm to their thoughts on camp cinema, horror, and modern therapy, it’s one of the funniest and most heartfelt episodes yet. 🎬 SHOW PONY reviews the latest movies, Broadway shows, and pop-culture moments — always with humor, honesty, and a dash of debauchery.

“Relationships healed, regrets revealed, and a future only Jackie could imagine.”

This is it—the FINAL Jackie Warner interview. In part two of Show Pony’s Workout series finale, Jackie goes deeper than ever before. She opens up about her regrets from Season 3, the truth about her relationships with the cast, and who she’s made peace with since the cameras stopped rolling. Jackie doesn’t shy away from Jillian Michaels, her philosophies on America’s health crisis, or the mistakes she’d change if she could go back. If you’ve ever wanted the unfiltered truth behind Bravo’s Workout, this is the seminal Jackie Warner conversation. Raw, honest, and nothing held back—this is the closure fans have waited years for. 👉 Hear Jackie Warner on: cast drama, reconciliations, Jillian Michaels, what she’d do differently, and what’s next.
👉 Hear John Arthur Hill reflect on wrapping a series that’s been years in the making. This isn’t goodbye forever—it’s goodbye for now. But for Bravo fans and Workout loyalists, this is the Jackie Warner interview you can’t miss.

I finally finished my full rewatch of Bravo’s Workout, and to close things out I sat down with Jackie Warner for one last exit interview. In Part One, Jackie opens up about Season 3, shares her regrets, and gives rare behind-the-scenes insight into Bravo. Part Two is coming soon with even more tea.

“Tony Awards, reality shows, and one unforgettable friendship—Marissa tells all.”

It’s a full-blown Hairspray Broadway reunion! Marissa Jaret Winokur joins John Hill for an unfiltered, hilarious, and surprisingly emotional episode of Show Pony. The Tony-winning original Tracy Turnblad and John have been ride-or-die since originating Hairspray on Broadway—and this conversation pulls back the curtain on everything from backstage chaos to real-life breakdowns (and breakthroughs). Marissa opens up about her time hosting Dance Your Ass Off, living in reality TV boot camps (The Biggest Loser, anyone?), and even making it to Dancing with the Stars. She and John dig deep into their early Hairspray days—before the Broadway lights—and get real about friendship, forgiveness, and pharmaceutical theft (yes, really). Plus, John gives you his signature solo Workout recap (Season 3, Episode 6).Whether you're a Broadway baby, a reality TV obsessive, or just here for the chaos of two musical theatre Broadway kids catching up, this one’s for you.
