"The Real World Homecoming: Los Angeles" - w/ Taria S. Faison & Ryan Bailey (S2, EP 8)

"The Real World" occupies a legendary place in the annals of reality TV, and so it is only fitting that Jamie should welcome two legendary podcasters - Taria S. Faison of "What Else Is Going On?" and Ryan Bailey of "So Bad It's Good with Ryan Bailey" - to break down this latest season of "RW Homecoming." Our intrepid trio navigates a wide range of topics including the exact moment in which this cast tends to sabotage its very desire for deeper connection, the underground energy (both personal and systemic) fueling the past and present conflicts between Tami Roman and David Edwards, whether Jon Brennan has fulfilled or sidestepped his life's calling in his role as a humble pastor, whether we should fully trust the public face presented by Irene Berrera-Kearns, and much more. Consider this The Deep Dive's love letter to "The Real World" - truly, the show that started it all.
