Writer, model, reality TV star and editor, Dan Renzi joins us for today’s show.
In the mid 90s, Dan was plucked from forty thousand hopefuls and cast in the fifth season of MTV’s Real World: Miami.
Dan was one of the first openly gay people to be featured in a reality show. After a career in modeling and hosting MTVs “Challenges” he became a certified HIV counselor and speaks at colleges about sex and communication.
Today he also works as the editor of the South Florida Blade and blogs at How Was Your Day, Dan?
Join us as we chat with Dan about what it’s like to be on a reality TV show, RuPaul and the challenges facing young people.

Thanks for having me on your show! I had fun meeting you guys. And I forgot to thank you for that delicious coffee liqueur (sp?) cocktail. I am still thinking about it. MMMMMMmmmmmmmmm.
Great show guys, it was good to “catch up” with Dan. It’s been a while since I’ve seen him around and it’s good to know all the great stuff that he is up to. The show went really well and there seemed to be good dialogue back and forth…hope to hear him on again!
OMG I LOVE Dan from the Real World!!! I can’t wait to listen to the show!!!
Great Show!! It is great to hear from Dan again. For the “Scissor Sister” position – I would recommend a double jelly dong. It would be flexible enough to accommodate the funky position… too bad my husband is only a top… would be fun to try….
I like gay celebs who have their roots in the Midwest – seems like they are more grounded and handle middle age better then those on the coasts.. just my simple observation. Josh Kilmer Purcell, Josh Hartnett are others that come to mind…. and of course Marc and Fausto….
Thank you Dan!
Hey Derek, is Josh Hartnett out? I had no idea.
Thanks Dan for being on the show and Thanks Marc and Fausto for having Dan on the show.
I always sort of looked at Dan admiringly as a young tween… but I could never shake the image of him going “I have… a major bone… to pick… with you”. He done took off the ear-rings at that point.
Nice to find out my suspicions of him being a real sweetie put in a trying situation are correct.
Many happy tidings to you all.
I was at Ogilvie station on Saturday, and I’m pretty sure I saw Dan on the escalator behind me. Guess I was right!
I imagine Dan gets sick of hearing “real world” puns. When I was in college I worked at a movie theater and he purchased some concessions from me and he made a comment about the price. Naturally, I wanted to say, “Well, Dan, it is the real world,” but I decided not to. Really interesting story, huh?
I liked the show today, I like Dan, it was nice getting and update on what he has been doing. I guess I will check out is blog. Keep up the good work.
Great show, hilarious to know that the worst thing is being caught on camera picking your nose!
OMG nooooooo, i can’t believe Dan said that
im a giant fan of the Bait bus and have followed it for YEARS. that totally ruined it.
oh well, atleast they’re still hot guys.
loved the show. nice to catch up with dan.
You would think I would know by now not to eat while listening to your podcasts. I aspirated my raisin bran when Fausto mistakenly said “genital heart disease”. A really great show!
Dan has always been my fav Real Worlder. I’m glad to know what he has been up to lately. And he’s SOOOOOOOO Hot!
great show! Dan has quite the sexy voice…he should do more radio—
great to hear what he has been up to and I had no idea he was so charismatic!
=)
