JEFF LEWIS ON THE RECORD - A walk down Bravo memory lane with the star of Flipping Out
John grabs Jeff Lewis after their SiriusXM shift and locks him down for a long-overdue Show Pony sit-down. What was supposed to be a recap of Workout S1E4 becomes something better: a no-bullshit Bravo download with one of the few people who lived it in real time. Jeff talks early Bravo, Jackie Warner, what the network used to be, and how reality TV warps everything — including your relationships, sense of self, and yes, your spray tan technique. Casual. Off-the-cuff. Surprisingly deep. Definitely unplanned.

Midnight Meltdown + A Real Bravo Exec Tells All (episode 10)
This episode of Show Pony was barely supposed to happen. I flew out of town for a wedding, missed my production window, had no guest, and decided to record the episode as soon as I landed—delirious at midnight—with Show Pony fave Eric Maxwell. What starts as a late-night mess spirals into gay chaos: relationship drama, Bravo memories, and yes, a live trial of a blowjob throat spray. Then things take a turn: I realize a real-life Bravo executive, Erica Forstadt, is also at the wedding. So I track her down, mic her up, and get a rare behind-the-scenes look at the network that gave us Workout, Top Chef, and everything in between. Unfiltered, unplanned, and deeply Show Pony.

CROSSOVER CHAOS WITH CAREY ODONNELL from SUP
After a whirlwind week of post-Jackie Warner interview fame, I escape into the shade of a WeHo park with one of my best friends and Fire Island housemate, Carey O'Donnell (SUP podcast), to regroup. In the shadow of SUR and the ghost of Sky Sport & Spa, we unpack Workout Season 2, Episode 2 while getting distracted by jacked strangers on the jungle gym. Topics include:Post-Bravo fame burnoutThe shifting sands of gay status symbolsWest Hollywood vs Fire Island energyAnd a deeply personal revelation involving Carey’s high school swim teamLet’s just say... this episode has a lot of heart—and eye candy

THE JACKIE WARNER INTERVIEW
Jackie Warner. Bravo icon. Fitness pioneer. Reality TV legend. This is the conversation I never thought I’d get. After weeks of planning, last-minute chaos nearly derailed everything — first a parade ruined the audio, then Jackie got COVID, mercury was in retrograde and the mics we sent to Jackie refused to work. So I did what I had to: I mic’d my laptop speaker. And myself. What you’re about to hear is raw, imperfect, and completely real. We talk about Workout, fame, Jillian Michaels, her mother, Sky Sport & Spa, and the truth about where Jackie is now.It’s not polished.It’s not filtered.But what she told me was better than I could have ever hoped. It’s Jackie Warner, finally speaking.

Together, they unpack the cultural legacy of Workout, the unrelenting power of Jackie Warner, and what it means when Bravo takes over your soul.
