  • Lesbian Cruise Confidential: Danny Pellegrino Spills Everything Iconic
    Aug 25 2025
    Danny Pellegrino turns Bravo commentary into life advice I didn’t expect.

    Danny Pellegrino (Everything Iconic) joins me for a wide-ranging chat about all things Bravo, WORKOUT, Dad Life, and everything in between. Danny’s mix of humor and cultural insight makes him one of the sharpest voices covering reality TV, and our chat is equal parts hilarious and revealing. We break down WORKOUT Season 3, Episode 3 — Jackie Warner’s lesbian cruise, workplace hookups, and the mysterious disappearance of the mud run. Danny shares his obsession with lesbian drama, thoughts on Bravocon, and how gay representation on reality TV has evolved. But then he turns the tables on me. Danny asks about my dating life, my so-called uncle fetish, and why my audience deserves more of my authentic self. His advice about SHOW PONY is blunt, funny, and surprisingly inspiring — and I actually take it. If you love Bravo, reality TV, and conversations that go deeper than gossip, this one’s essential listening.

  • From Rachel Zoe to Jackie Warner: Reality TV’s Wild West with Elizabeth Kott
    Aug 19 2025
    It’s a sunny Hollywood backyard chat with Too Niche? host and vintage Bravo expert Elizabeth Kott — the woman who convinced me to start Show Pony in the first place. Elizabeth worked with Rachel Zoe back in the day (yes, she shares what it was like to work for her), and she knows the Bravo era, LA culture, and reality TV from the inside out. This episode is a double-header:
    • Workout Season 3, Episode 2 Recap – Jackie Warner, Sky Sport & Spa, and all the Bravo chaos of 2007.
    • Netflix’s The Biggest Loser Documentary (“Fit for TV?”) – how reality TV mocked fat people and why cruelty passed as entertainment.
    Plus, we get into the good stuff:
    • I spill tea on producing Tori Spelling’s reality show and the behind-the-scenes of negotiating brand deals in reality TV.
    • The disgusting state of LA’s The Grove — how it’s turned into a dystopian influencer catwalk where everyone dresses like a whore (thank you, social media).
    • The toxic state of online culture and unattainable beauty standards that keep recycling from one era to the next.
    • LA then vs. now: from Rachel Zoe’s fashion reign to Jackie Warner’s fitness empire to today’s influencer mess.
    It’s Bravo nostalgia, reality TV industry secrets, and an unfiltered state-of-LA breakdown — all from the backyard, with iced drinks and plenty of shade.

    Aug 11 2025
    S.U.P's Lara Marie Schoenhals and I unpack vintage Bravo mess, tats I got while high on pills, and our dogs wage squeaky toy warfare all in honor of Workout season 3! Show Pony tackles the Season 3 premiere of WORKOUT with a Sexy Unique Podcast crossover event: Lara Marie Schoenhals joins me to break down the vintage reality TV chaos of Workout Season 3 — and create some new drama of our own. We cover Jackie Warner’s new hair, her new girlfriend, and behind-the-scenes Bravo gossip you won’t hear anywhere else. I teach Lara about the politics of Fire Island Pines, I confess the worst tattoos I’ve ever gotten (thank you, prescription painkillers), and our dogs go feral in a squeaky toy showdown. It’s Bravo nostalgia, pop culture gossip, and unhinged storytelling — from the queen of Sexy Unique Podcast and the host of Show Pony. If you love Bravo reality shows, messy lesbian love stories, or chaotic podcast energy, this episode’s for you.
