JOSHTHERHONYSTAN is in LA! And one of his first stops on his Hollywood tour was The Reality Of Reality studio. Josh is a New York–based reality TV content creator with a background in politics, and in this episode, we’re covering it all.

We start by talking about life before content creation, living in Los Angeles, and swapping stories about how we became friends!

Then, Josh spills on Bravolebrities sliding into his DMs, which Bravolebs he’s not a fan of, and we share our [hot] takes on the current season of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. We also make The Traitors predictions, unpack Josh’s obsession with baseball, review the new movie Primate (ew), and — obviously — talk about Heated Rivalry (duh).

So tune in to hear Josh and I’s very first fight, which was a clear millennial vs. Gen Z divide ❤️

.If you love The Traitors, this episode is for you. Not only was Christian de la Torre part of the very first season of The Traitors US, he was a Traitor! (and the only non-celebrity US Traitor, so far). Alongside Cirie Fields and Cody Calafiore, the three of them ran the turret… until Cody was ultimately taken out and Arie Luyendyk Jr. was recruited to join them.


Now, Christian is spilling everything about what it was really like behind the scenes. He breaks down what actually happens inside the turret, how long the roundtables truly last, what life was like living in the hotel, how cast members were transported to and from the castle, and how celebrity players were treated differently than the civilians. He also opens up about the grueling filming schedule, off-camera freak-outs we never saw on TV, Alan Cumming and so much more.


So gather around the roundtable and get comfortable — because today, we’re getting into The Reality Of: The Traitors.

My parents have officially entered the chat! On this week’s very special holiday episode, I’m back home in Pennsylvania for Christmas and sitting down with my parents to talk all things reality TV.

First up, my dad Angelo weighs in on the Survivor 49 finale and the Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans trailer. Then my mom Andrea joins the conversation as we dive into Southern Charm, Vanderpump Rules, our favorite (and least favorite) Housewives, and plenty more.

I also break down some of the latest reality TV theories making the rounds — from Katie Maloney potentially becoming a main cast member on Stassi Says, to Jacqueline Laurita allegedly joining The Real Housewives of Orange County, to MrBeast possibly doubling the Survivor 50 prize pot. Hear it all on The Reality Of Reality.

Have you ever wondered what it’s actually like to be a contestant on a game show? This week, Bridgett Greenberg and Johno Faherty are holding nothing back about their experiences — and trust me, it’s not as glamorous as it looks on TV.

Johno has appeared on multiple game shows, most notably 25 Words or Less (and he has some words for Meredith Vieira). Bridgett, meanwhile, competed on a show she still won’t name — but if you’re as good at trivia as she is, you can probably figure it out from the clues she drops. And here’s the kicker: both Johno and Bridgett are convinced they should have walked away with $10,000… but didn’t.

This episode is especially fun because Johno, Bridgett, and I have been close friends for over a decade, ever since we met in college in Philadelphia. Johno and I even competed on a game show together called The Squad — which never actually aired, but gave us plenty of hilarious behind-the-scenes stories.

So tune in to this week’s episode to hear all about The Reality Of: Being on a Game Show. 

We need to talk about the Vanderpump Rules reboot — and this new era is already… chaotic. We’ve got Marcus and Kim’s roller-coaster relationship, Natalie’s singing career, the “kissing cousins” (sorry, boys), Peter vanishing, juicy security footage and a whole new group of SURvers ready to bring the drama.

And in this episode, we will be hearing from YOU! I asked for your takes on episode 1, and you all delivered! I’m diving into the unfiltered opinions you sent in across Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook (and you held NOTHING back).

So let’s break down the episode, the cast, the drama and try to figure out if we actually like this show (so far) or not. 

Ryan Bailey and I are back for Part 2 of our BravoCon recap — and things only get crazier from here. We’re talking iconic Housewives moments, panel drama, fan questions that went completely off the rails, the creator carpet, and randomly running into the Salt Lake City women at both a gay club and Chili’s. (Those ladies have range!)

So tune in for the second half of our BravoCon 2025 breakdown — because we saved some of the best stories for last 👀

This week, I am joined by the host of So Bad It's Good with Ryan Bailey — Mr. Ryan Bailey himself! Together, we are sharing our BravoCon war stories. From debilitating hangovers to getting “man-handled” by security guards and partying with Real Housewives in between, we’re giving you an inside look at what really goes down during Bravo’s biggest weekend.
And obviously, since Ryan and I are both Bravo TV lovers and commentators, our conversation was flowing almost as much as the white wine in Planet Hollywood on Thursday night. That said, this episode is going to be TWO PARTS — so sit back, relax, and join us as we spill allllll the tea during Part 1 of The Reality Of: BravoCon.

Ever wish you could watch reality TV at a bar the same way people watch sports? Maddy Biebel had the same thought — so she created her own! On this episode of The Reality of Reality, Maddy shares how Reality Bar went from a simple idea to a growing community, drawing appearances from reality stars like Parvati Shallow, Joey Graziadei, and the Love Island USA season 7 cast; screening shows at bars all across Los Angeles. But she hasn’t built this alone — and she’s walking us through all the behind-the-scenes teamwork, the process of convincing bars to partner with her, and what it truly takes to launch something like this. Tune in to learn all about The Reality Of: Reality Bar.

Being on a competition show is hard enough — but try doing it anonymously. In this weeks episode, Dillian The Celebrity explains what really went down behind-the-scenes on USA’s "The Anonymous”. He reveals all the things that the cameras didn’t catch — from the house not having any showers to everyone speaking to a different “Dani”, to deleted scenes and the intense casting process. Dillian is definitely not on "silent mode" during this episode! So tune in to learn more about the reality of: The Anonymous.

So… I realized I launched this show without ever explaining the story behind it. In this episode, I’m sharing a little about me — my background in TV, how I started making reality tv content, and what inspired this whole thing!

Then, I’m unpacking why the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and Below Deck crossover is a big deal, the story behind Lisa Barlow’s current feud with a TikToker, and a breakdown of the Love Is Blind: Denver filming timeline that’s left fans a little… confused.
