Episode 61. This week, Tommy and MJ are joined by Jesse Leed, the true creator and visionary of Bravo’s Shahs of Sunset. Jesse talks about how the reality show all started while he was working at Ryan Seacrest Productions. He discusses what he was looking for during the intensive casting process and why MJ, as well as the rest of the original cast, were chosen. Who were the first to be cast? Why were certain people not asked to come back for another season? First thoughts on Vida? All this and more!
