Reality Gays with Mattie and Poodle

Matt Marr and Jake Anthony

Jake Anthony and Matt Marr are two Southern Queens who absolutely love reality shows about lonely hearts looking for love. They recap it all including: TLC's 90 Day Fiancé, Love is Blind on Netflix, Love After Lockup, and some other shows where the people are just hot messes looking for love. If you've been looking for your gay BFFs to dish this show, you're home Queen!


Matt is a clinical psychologist, while Jake is a life coach and teacher. And they both are shady queens who are boggled at the insane ways some of these people search for love in this world. The only thing more certain than a K-1 Visa or a venereal disease is the fact that Jake and Matt will keep you laughing at these lovebirds while also judging their choices. But none of it is mean, because Jake and Matt get it. At the end of the day, aren't we all just looking for our little piece of love?

Our Editor's Take

Reality Gays with Mattie and Poodle is a fun reality TV podcast. With Jake Anthony and Matt Marr as hosts, listeners hear hilarious recaps. From 90 Day Fiancé to Love is Blind and many more, this podcast reports on the heights of reality television. The hosts both love and mock the shows they talk about.

Hosts Matt and Jake, called Mattie and Poodle on the podcast, are not new to hosting. Their previous shows include Bitch Craft, Sweet T, and RiverMales. They bring their signature Southern charm and queer perspective to their recaps. Reality Gays with Mattie and Poodle has a big fan base. The hosts call their fans the Sissy Squad.

Listeners hear detailed analyses of the latest on-screen drama. Is TV love actually real? Matt and Jake will be the judges. Reality Gay with Mattie and Poodle episodes about 90 Day Fiancé start with a fun opening theme song, a spoof of The Love Boat. Captain Poodle invites listeners to the party. “Love, exciting and new,” they sing. “Go online, they're catfishing you!”

Everyone needs love, and the hosts understand that. Some people search for love in questionable places. Their self-diagnosed “Gay DD” means they struggle to stay focused. Lucky for their podcast listeners, their asides are always entertaining. Often, they find their way back to the original topic-after a few detours. They discuss the failures of the reunion shows that conclude many reality series. Love is Blind can't seem to get it right. Are Nick and Vanessa Lachey terrible hosts, or is it the reunion format? How many couples stay together after the show ends? Which show has the best record, and why? Mattie and Poodle investigate these questions with care. They discuss the worst vacation ever. The hosts joke about how many reality stars consider their time on a show in this category.

Whether analyzing reality TV wedding days or cast introductions, Mattie and Poodle debate it all. Listeners can enjoy their uproarious responses. They also record some episodes from their live shows. New episodes of Reality Gays with Mattie and Poodle drop almost every day.
