Also dropping by the show Sunday night is RILEY PEREZ, author and former California prison inmate.

On January 22, 2004, Darnell Riley - known as RILEY PEREZ to his friends - broke into the home of Girls Gone Wild founder, Joe Francis. Throughout the night he filmed a blackmail video, and arrange for payment so that the video didn't go viral.

"What Is Real: The Life and Crimes of Darnell Riley" explores the nine years he spent in the custody of California's Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. On his journey from facility to facility, we see how RILEY had to adjust to the reality that the rules inside the walls are not perfect, but if followed, they would allow you to survive. From county lockup to the historically violent Corcoran State Prison, where he shared facilities with Charles Manson and the gang leaders whose influence extend beyond the confines of the walls, the author confronts the question of which version of himself is real - the young, mild-mannered kid from Los Angeles, known to his friends and family as RILEY PEREZ, or the man who pleaded guilty to robbery and attempted extortion, known to the State of California as Darnell Riley.

With neither self-pity nor self-aggrandizement, this memoir takes a cold hard look at a life of crime, the toll it takes, the reality of life inside California's prisons, and the price paid by an inmate's friends, family, and loved ones.
