• 251. Rachel Recchia: Bachelor Nation fan favorite breaks down the realities of reality TV between networks, saying yes to Perfect Match, continuing her passion for aviation and the $$$ behind it all!

  This week, Jason is joined by reality TV star and commercial pilot, Rachel Recchia! Rachel first captured America’s attention on The Bachelor before becoming one of the co-leads of The Bachelorette Season 19, where she navigated love, heartbreak, and the spotlight in front of millions of viewers. She later returned to Bachelor in Paradise, further cementing her place as a fan favorite in Bachelor Nation, but Rachel’s story goes far beyond reality TV. She is a licensed pilot, a career she’s pursued well before the cameras. Rachel pulls back the curtain on her journey through two very different corners of reality TV—The Bachelor franchise and Netflix’s Perfect Match—and explains what ultimately led her to say yes to Perfect Match. She dives into her true passion outside of television: aviation. From working as a flight instructor to breaking down the costly path of pilot training, Rachel shares her long-term goals in the cockpit, the different licenses she’s earned, and how quickly she returned to work after her season of The Bachelorette. She opens up about how the men from her season impacted her mental health, the challenge of balancing a career in aviation with the world of social media, and why she doesn’t see herself as an “influencer.” Rachel also compares reality TV audiences, reveals why she’ll never return to The Bachelor franchise, and gets candid about dating after reality TV. The episode wraps with a rapid-fire money segment that offers an honest look at life beyond the spotlight. Rachel reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

• 250. Chicklet and Maleni: From dishwashing for $300/week to millions of followers making videos, BTS of what lead them to social media,

  This week, Jason is joined by content creator couple who turned into social media stars, Chicklet and Maleni! After meeting at a friend’s party over ten years ago, Chicklet and Maleni had instant chemistry and it was their sense of humor that eventually brought them together, not only as a couple, but an internet comedy duo. Achieving a level of fame and recognition was not necessarily an objective for the budding comedians who stood out with their short videos, however, with over 7 million combined followers across their social media accounts, their love for each other and comedy turned into a story that people wanted to follow.  Maleni and Chicklet open up about the professional paths they once imagined for themselves and how those plans shifted as content creation took center stage. Chicklet shares how he got his start while working at Parks and Rec before taking the leap into full-time content, while Maleni reflects on her early career with a dance company. They break down the moment they realized real money could be made on social media, which videos first went viral, and their experience with Streaming University. The two also dive into the biggest challenges of working together, their journey with sobriety, and how they’ve built security in their relationship, their finances, and their mutual support system. Chicklet and Maleni reveal all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

  This week, Jason is joined by entrepreneur, podcast host, and star of MTV’s Siesta Key, Juliette Porter! Juliette came to recognition in 20217 after being cast as a main personality on MTV’s hit reality TV show, following a group of friends in Siesta Key, Florida. In addition to being on reality TV, Juliette has expanded her career endeavors by getting into the retail and podcast space. Juliette co-founded a designer swimwear and apparel brand focused on natural beauty and body positivity called JMP the Label, which she has helped grow since 2021. She started her podcast with her friend Sebastian called Don’t Be Ridiculous where she co-hosts on a weekly basis. Juliette takes us behind the scenes of her whirlwind journey — from filming the Siesta Key pilot at just 17, to shifting her career path when the show was picked up. She opens up about the year-over-year changes in reality TV income, how she negotiated her narration fee into the six figures, and the personal, financial, and professional struggles she’s faced along the way. Juliette gets candid about her spending habits, navigating imposter syndrome, and the business hustle behind JMP The Label — from its standout moments at Swim Week to making millions in just the first few years. She shares which celebrities have worn her swimsuits, why she’s determined to do more than just reality TV, and her vision for what’s next.
