Episode Description:

This week, Jason is joined by Bachelor Nation’s newly engaged couple and fan favorites Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson! 



Joey walked away from his lead role on The Bachelor this past season after asking Kelsey to marry him. Since their season wrapped, Joey and Kelsey have spent their time traveling and spending as much time together as an engaged couple. Having come from two different career paths and geographical locations (Joey a tennis pro in Hawaii and Kelsey a project manager in New Orleans), they are now faced with the deciding factor of what is next for them personally and professionally. 



Joey and Kelsey reflect on meeting fans at CMAfest and their impact on their audience, what goes into teaching tennis, where they saw their careers going prior to the show, how Kelsey and Joey ended up on the show, what role Jason played in Joey’s journey, and having important conversations in the fantasy suite. Kelsey and Joey also dive into the decision for Joey to move in with Kelsey in New Orleans, where they see their careers moving post show, discussing the influencer space and navigating other people being worried about their finances, and a few rapid fire questions. How many times has Kelsey been nominated for The Bachelor? Where do they plan on moving after the lease ends? What other reality show would they love to do? 



Kelsey & Joey reveal all that and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

This week, Jason is joined by reality TV personality and entrepreneur Kyle Cooke for the second time! 



Kyle was last on the show two years ago to talk about his sparkling hard teas and canned cocktail company Loverboy in addition to his experience being on Bravo’s hit show, Summer House. In more recent news, Kyle has been in the hot seat for some recent drama regarding his friend and Summer House co-star Craig Conover partnering with a competing brand of Loverboy. Kyle gives insight to the conflict between Loverboy and competitor Spritz Society on Watch What Happens Live, what he would do differently looking back in hindsight, the behind-the-scenes of the business of Loverboy, how he found out about the collaboration from Craig and the conversation they had, the importance of honesty and transparency, and how the situation is more gossip than an actual business case. Kyle also reveals what really goes into entrepreneurship, qualifying for an SBA loan worth millions, clearing up the truth and falses between business and pop culture, and how he balances his relationship and his business. Who has equity in the business? How much did he raise initially?

170. More Than Money:  Diving into all things Reality TV & Pop Culture with Zachary Reality!

This week, Jason is joined by real estate agent, entrepreneur, content creator, and working mom of two, Alex Hall!



Many know Alex from her role on Netflix’s Selling the OC where she shares her personal and professional life working for the Oppenheim group in Orange County. On the show, Alex’s personable yet sometimes controversial character makes her one of the more polarizing members of the show throughout its three seasons. Being a native of Orange County, Alex leveraged her market knowledge to lead a successful real estate career before joining the Oppenheim Group in 2021. When she is not selling million dollar listings, Alex creates hilarious content with her social media following about her life as a working mom. 



Alex gives insight to influencer trips, how rumors played a role in her experience in Dubai, the story behind how the date she brought to Dubai left her, the importance of making a statement to set the record straight on allegations, how it impacted her influencer deals, how she ended up on Selling the OC and joining the Oppenheim Group, and if she thinks being on the show is worth it. Alex also reveals that she is an experience girl when it comes to opportunities, how she challenges herself when filming the reality show to go against her initial instinct, her advice on the real estate market currently, what has changed in the industry with being able to market in the MLS, and the three most important things in the real estate industry. How often do they get paid for Selling the OC? Does she feel pressure when filming to create drama?
