According to our soures, we hear that Real Writers of Hollywood is doing a LIVE podcast event in Beverly Hills Friday February 13, during NBA All-Star Weekend.
Joey Wells, Johnny Mack, Wayne Stamps, Buddy Lewis and Chris Spencer (the creative team behind Real Husbands of Hollywood) are putting on a live podcast event to celebrate the launch of their new comedy podcast Real Writers of Hollywood. Several celebrity guests are scheduled to make an appearance.
If you are not familiar, Real Husbands of Hollywood was a parody sitcom created by comedian Kevin Hart, which first aired on BET in 2013 and ran until 2016, before returning for a revival season in 2022 on BET+. The series quickly gained attention for its unique format, blending scripted comedy with the aesthetics of reality television.
At its core, the show was a satirical take on popular reality franchises like The Real Housewives. Instead of following housewives, it centered on exaggerated versions of Kevin Hart and other celebrities navigating the absurdities of Hollywood life. Hart played a fictionalized version of himself, constantly scheming to climb the social ladder, with much of the humor stemming from his over-the-top antics and rivalries.
The ensemble cast featured Nick Cannon, Boris Kodjoe, Duane Martin, J.B. Smoove, and Robin Thicke, with guest appearances from stars such as Nelly and Shaquille O’Neal. Each actor leaned into a caricatured version of their public persona, creating a comedic dynamic that poked fun at fame, ego, and the entertainment industry.
Critics and audiences praised the show for its originality and self-aware humor. By parodying the conventions of reality TV, Real Husbands of Hollywood offered a fresh spin on celebrity culture while showcasing Kevin Hart’s knack for self-deprecating comedy. The series ran for five seasons before concluding in 2016, but its cult following led to a revival in 2022. The new season brought back much of the original cast and continued the same satirical tone, proving the concept still resonated years later.
This new podcast aims to tackle all of the fun and laughs that happened on the show and behind the scenes, and might be one of the most exciting events (other than the slam dunk contest) to be taking place on NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles.
Stay tuned for more details as it develops.
