Summary

Jess is joined by Danny Roberts (Real World: New Orleans instant MTV icon) for his second appearance! This time Danny spills all the behind the scenes Homecoming tea, including: the orchestration of Paul's return, the fact that Julie's agent was her mother, Julie's narcissism, Danny on Matt’s Catholic dogma and the production behind what really happened at the gay bar that night.

[45:00] We then revisit Danny's first appearance where he discusses the audition & filming process, the Paul relationship, Don't Ask Don't Tell and the whole cast assuming devout Catholic Matt was the gay one. Danny also discusses the Stephen/Irene "slap" from RW Seattle and his shady personal experience with Stephen on The Challenge. Finally, Danny opens up about discovering he was HIV positive and adopting his daughter.
