44. Rit Saraswat From Reality Tonight! Podcast

Indra and Deana chat with Rit Saraswat, co-executive producer for unscripted television and film and host of the podcast Reality Tonight! Rit talks about his experience growing up as a brown kid in Pittsburgh, how he turned an interest in screenwriting into his current career, his experience working on shows like Bad Girls Club, Project Runway, and Keeping Up With the Kardashians and his thoughts on ‘Family Karma’ and general representations of Desi culture on Bravo. And then, all three take a deep dive into all things Bravo: RHONY needing to diversify, the political leanings across the housewives franchise, DMing with the Shahs of Sunset (and Jen Shah too!), Bravo Stan culture, whether Erika from RHOBH knew about Tom’s evil dealings, Bravo assistants, the women of RHOD, RHOP and RHOA, and toxic religious propaganda in pop culture. Rit also tells us about the upcoming projects he’s working on that hitting our screens this summer. And Deana and Indra discuss the most recent ‘Family Karma’ promo in the intro!
