Episodes

#036: Get Speculating 31.01.2022

In what may be the most entertaining week of reality TV in 2022, the team is faced with some hard hitting questions. Will Arun and Natalia ever get eliminated from The Amazing Race? Is Kerri Kolby good at lip syncing? What is Meredith Marks' deal? And for the Bucket List-- Was TLC's "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" a good show? Tune in to this week's episode of The GET Real Podcast to find out!

#035: Get Held Accountable 24.01.2022

We are feeling good this week, which falls in stark comparison to our shows (most of which are full of hot messes). We had a chocolatey twist on Drag Race, a secret bonus task on Amazing Race, and more drama than I can manage on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City! But who is surprised about that last one? Not me. Plus, we talk about Storage Wars for the Bucket List.

#034: Get It Straight 17.01.2022

We lied about Mob Wives last week, our bad. BUT in exchange, we will give you some Kardashian content as a treat. More racing too! The second part of the drag race premiere, the third leg of The Amazing Race (plus it's pandemic fallout). And we talk about how much we hate Meredith's husband on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. All this and more on GET Real.

#033: Get Ready for the Races 10.01.2022

In our first (official) episodes of 2022, we kick off TWO NEW SEASONS of perfect television. We cover the double premiere of The Amazing Race and the half premiere of Rupaul's Drag Race. That all evens out to one whole premiere each, right? Plus, the racism and controversy surrounding Mary Cosby on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and the Joe Millionaire reboot on the Bucket List! All this on thi...

#032: GET Real Wrap Up 2021 03.01.2022

In our final goodbye to 2021 we take a look back at all the shows we watched over the course of the year. ALL of them. Put them up in a ranking, can you guess which shows we hated? Which shows we loved? Only one way to find out! Tune in to this episodes of the GET Real Podcast!

#031: Get In Reality (ft. Alissa Salzwedel) 27.12.2021

In our first game episode in nearly a year, we play In Reality (our version of Dropout's Um Actually)! Special guest Alissa joins us to talk Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and holiday episodes of Netflix's Nailed It! Next week is our year recap!

#030: Get a Good Edit 20.12.2021

FINALLY, it's the Survivor Finale!! No spoilers, but I, personally, am thrilled about the winner. Speaking of winners, Jen Shah is definitely not one, which is a concept we explore when talking about Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Plus, we have Toy Hunter as our Bucket List show of the week!

#029: Get Ducked 13.12.2021

In the penultimate Survivor episode, we have some drama filled moments and an even more drama filled tribal. Only one episode to go! Plus we talk about the chaos that was Duck Dynasty, and the hypocritical crap that Mary is spewing on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.

#028: Get Baked (ft. Elsa's Mom!!) 06.12.2021

A second mom episode in a row! With no Real Housewives of Salt Lake City this week, we took on two Bucket List shows; The Great British Bake Off and the new season of Tiger King! Those two things could not be more different, wow. Plus, a surprise twist on Survivor sends an unexpected player home.

#027: Get Heathered (ft. Garrett's Mom!) 29.11.2021

This week we have a VERY special guest: Garrett's mom Heather! She's the reason we're all here essentially, so we watched what I guess is her favorite show for the Bucketlist this week: Flipping Out! Plus, a surprising tribal council on Survivor and more Mary drama on Salt Lake City.

#026: Get Booked 22.11.2021

With another change of plans, we do not have our own Heather on the podcast this week but never fear! We still had some great content from Survivor and Salt Lake City. A double elimination, an arrest, plus the bucketlist show that's currently trending on Netflix: 60 Days In. Tune in to GET Real this week!

#025: Get Caught (ft. Zach Koczara) 15.11.2021

Here it is... the one we've all been waiting for! Well, almost. The most anticipated event of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City season is upon us and BOY are we loving it. Plus, chaos Heather on Survivor and Dog the Bounty Hunter is our Bucket List show of the week! With a special guest-- our friend Zach!

#024: Get Me A Twist, This is A Lie 08.11.2021

We've got some funky vibes today, as Garrett, Elsa, and Taj talk about one of the most active Tribal Councils in Survivor history. Taj watched Real Housewives of Salt Lake City for the first time, plus, in a podcast first, we talk about something that might not be a reality show (it's close enough though), Taskmaster!! All this jam packed with a usual amount of shenanigans, be sure to tune in to t...

#023: Get Twisted 01.11.2021

In a very spooky Halloween episode, Garrett, Elsa, and Taj take a look at Face Off! Interesting makeup, neat prosthetics, a cool show all around! Plus, we share our thoughts on the first ever two part Survivor episode, as well as all the stupid husbands on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.

#022: Get Cat 25.10.2021

Garrett, Elsa, and Taj love Naseer. We dish about advantages in Survivor and how they affect the game and the viewers. In Salt Lake City, we hear about the unfortunate situation Jennie and Duy are in and how Lisa could be lying about the whole caterer fiasco. Plus, My Cat From Hell is our Bucketlist show for the week!

#021: Get Boned 18.10.2021

Oh my god they're back again. Garrett, Elsa, and Taj are still obsessed with this season of Survivor, this week talking about what Garrett calls "the best episode since David vs. Goliath". Plus, post-season Big Brother gossip, Salt Lake City drama, and the Bucketlist is back! The team watched the season 19 premiere of Project Runway and boy do we have some thoughts.

#020: Get Engaged ft. Alissa Salzwedel 11.10.2021

Once again joined by Alissa Salzwedel, best friend of the podcast, the crew dishes on the Bachelor in Paradise finale. Who dumped who? Who got engaged? Will Tia ever find love? Plus, more Survivor and Real Housewives of Salt Lake City! Next week we bring back The Bucketlist, so stay tuned for our thoughts on the Project Runway premiere!

#019: Get Kyland Out Of Here 04.10.2021

At long last, we have reached the Big Brother 23 Finale! We discuss the final week, as well as our final thoughts on some of the players. Plus a shocking blindside in Survivor, awkward Prom on Bachelor in Paradise, ice fishing in Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, and The Circle I guess?

#018: Get With The Times 26.09.2021

After over a year, the wait is finally over. Survivor is back! Garrett, Elsa, and Taj recap the premiere episode and discuss the community controversy within. We touch on the penultimate week of Big Brother (and Kyland's meltdown), a hurricane on Bachelor in Paradise, and The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Plus, that super creepy baby from The Masked Singer.

#017: Get Salty 20.09.2021

When one show ends, another begins, and that's exactly what we hashed out this week on GET Real. Garrett, Elsa, and Taj talk the final days od Big Brother and Bachelor in Paradise, how uninterested in The Circle we are, and the Season 2 premiere of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Next week we start Survivor, there's a lot to look forward to!

#016.5: SURVIVOR PALOOZA 17.09.2021

For the show that birthed the idea for this podcast, we now bequeath upon thee a pre-season cast draft. Garrett, Elsa, and Taj draft their own dream teams for a bet that will run all season long: winner gets a surprise cameo and loser gets a hug. Hear about the Survivor 41 cast and our thoughts in this special bonus episode!

#016: Get More Followers ft. Alissa Salzwedel 13.09.2021

As we near the end of the summer seasons, Garrett, Elsa, and Taj have a lot to say. Joined this week by longtime friend of the pod, Alissa, we discuss the drama and backlash of Bachelor in Paradise, the historical final six in Big Brother, and the premiere of The Circle. Maybe someone actually watched The Challenge this week, too.

#015: Getting Freaky 06.09.2021

As summer winds down and our current lineup approaches their final weeks, Garrett, Elsa, and Taj get back into their old, insane groove. They discuss the crazy dates and drama on Bachelor in Paradise, Kyland's "Internet Karen" antics from Big Brother, and Garrett gives us an update on the most dramatic season of The Challenge ever recorded. Things are only getting better in year 2 of GET Real!

#014 Get Cover, The Tahjnado is Coming 30.08.2021

Garrett, Elsa, and Taj are coming in as hot as it seems to be on the Bachelor in Paradise beach this season! We talk about the comings and goings of the house, as well as the very sad past week of Big Brother. So many tears! Plus, Garrett gives us the tea on The Challenge!

#013 Get To Paradise 23.08.2021
