What the Reality
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the pod! As the intro says, Caché Roberts (@cacheroberts and @whattherealitypod) is deep-diving into everything she's obsessed with. From pop culture and housewives to everything in between.
Join Caché every Toxic Tuesday to discuss some toxic talks, reali(tea) topics, and reali(tv). And catch her on (some) Fridays for a "What's the Reality" on blast-from-the-past topics and historic pop culture moments in reality TV, like the history of reality shows like "The Hills" to epic feuds in reality TV history like Bethenny Frankel vs. Carole Radziwill.
