Summary
Today we start getting real about the show that started it all. We talk about how The Real World came to be, reminisce about the early episodes, and we talk about how the show has evolved. We also interview Judd Winick who starred on the ground-breaking San Francisco season, married one of his cast mates, and became close with Pedro Zamora. We also find out what Judd is up to now, and how he is living his dream as a New York Times' best-selling author/illustrator. We didn't realize when we started this episode that we were going to do more, but after we taped it we had so much left to say. So, this is part 1 in a series about the show and how it changed TV and our lives.
