Summary

Jonathan Anitn steps Behind The Rope. Yes, that Jonathan Antin from the classic hit Bravo show, Blow Out. A blast from the past, here to tell it all.  Does everyone know Patti Stanger has a new show coming to the CW? That got us thinking of Bravo of yesteryear and, as a result, today we share this chat we had during our first year with the one and only Jonathan Antin. Jonathan fills us in on what he has been up to since we last saw him on our TV screens. Jonathan explains how he was cast, the "reality” of the show Blow Out, his “employee” Brandon, his on screen “bad boy” image, and what filming was really like. Jonathan discusses Andy Cohen who, being an Executive Producer on Blow Out, was heavily involved in the show. Jonathan explains how, once Blow Out had ended, he almost had his own show “Salon Nightmares" - think Gordon Ramsay for Salons (hey we would watch that) and explains the circumstances which led to the demise of that show. Finally, we discuss the early days of Bravo and what the neophyte network was like back then during Jonathan’s tenure on Blow Out. We are just getting started.  @jonathanantin @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: RAKUTEN - rakuten.com (Members Earn Cash Back On Everything They Buy Through Rakuten or The Rakuten App) ONESKIN - oneskin.co (Get 15% Off With the Code VELVET This Skincare Which Targets The Root Causes of Aging) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Upgrade Your Job Post) STARBUCKS - (Introducing the New Starbucks Iced Apple Crisp Oatmilk Shaken Espresso!
