As Ricky put it, “MTV, drunk on profits from The Hills, decided to give us our own TV show.”
More details in the future, but I will say that making a TV show with these people is even more fun than you think it is. Some people seem to think it’s a reality show, which isn’t true. For instance, we don’t...
