Transparency
Hosted by Transparency · EN
Ever sat around with your friends and wondered what it would be like if you had your own sitcom? Well, we didn't have the budget for a sitcom—but we thought that our off-the-cuff banter and zany life stories warranted a podcast, at the very least. For an unfiltered look into the lives and minds of a diverse group of college students who spend way too much time together, tune into Transparency. We can't promise much, but we can promise that we'll always keep it transparent with you.

Episode 20: JUDAS
Jul 13, 202001:05:39Tap to summarizeWe're finally here: the series finale. In true Transparency fashion, we try to reminisce about the journey we've been on for the past ten months, through the podcast, our friendship, and our time in LA—but get sidetracked by conversations about hot tubs in tents and celebrity nightmares. We manage to wrap up with some sentimental thoughts about our squad (and a sneak peek at our unlikely future endeavors). As a special treat for getting this far, we're also revealing a blooper reel of some of our best moments that never made the cut to a finished episode. Thanks for sticking with us, and look out for our 2022 reunion!

Episode 19: Better to Be Late Than to Arrive Ugly
Jun 30, 202000:46:55Tap to summarizeThis episode might be coming to you a little behind schedule... just like a certain perpetually tardy cast member of ours, who showed up more than a few minutes late to this episode’s recording session. After his unfashionably late arrival, we get back into our groove, spilling the tea on some of our most embarrassing escapades from the past year, like getting kicked out of a bar or faking a relationship in the dining hall. It may be our penultimate episode, but join us in laughing and reminiscing as if it's our first time in the recording booth.

Listen in to see if he gets a bid from one of our sharks or leaves the recording “tank” empty-handed.

Episode 11: Old Timers
Jan 21, 202000:47:48Tap to summarizeIt's a new decade, but we're still the same old Transparency, and we're starting off season two with an even more dizzying array of disjointed stories, from celebrating the new year with celebrity sightings to outsmarting Ellen (or at least the interns who write for her) at her own mobile game. We also come full circle with a full discussion about our first ever episode topic—The Bachelor—and as always, we stay transparent about our true feelings concerning Pilot Pete.
