Summary
Former Miss USA and OG reality star Shanna Moakler joins When Reality Hits for one of the most unfiltered conversations yet.

She reflects on being at the center of 2000s Hollywood, addresses long-standing rumors involving Kim Kardashian, and shares what it’s really like watching her family reconnect with reality TV in a whole new era. Plus, she talks healing, growth, LA’s iconic nightlife days, and the lessons she wishes she knew in her twenties.
