Life has handed Orange County housewife, Shannon Storms Beador, more than a few lemons. But time again she has chosen to put nine of them in a bowl, and instead of lemonade, she prefers a GreyGoose with sparkling water and lemon.

Cue the JAWS music, because Melissa is offering us 100% of an entertaining episode as she leads us right into the shark tank. Fashion mogul Daymond John was an entrepreneur from day one; from selling handmade hats in his Queens neighborhood, to creating FUBU—one of the most recognizable brands in fashion. He was a great catch for ABC’s the Shark Tank where he helped hopeful entrepreneurs build their dreams. But not every business tail has a happy ending, and while Damon may not bite, he proves he will attack legally if you get in the way of a deal.

Rebekah offers up America's Next Top Model as a quintessential reality show of the early-mid 2000’s. It’s a case study in reality tv before we knew better; and leading the way was Tyra Banks. Her undeniable talent and beauty gave her an early start in the modeling and entertainment industries, but her unpredictable antics often got her in trouble and always got the internet buzzing. From two lawsuits on both ANTM and America’s Got Talent, Tyra had to defend her controversial actions, but it was in a criminal stalking case few people talked about that found Tyra in the role of victim that was anything but entertaining.

Rebranded as “HULK HOGAN” (heard of him?), he went on to become rich, famous, and utterly despicable - a sub-zero on the winsome scale. From steroids to sex scandals, and a cameo you DID NOT see coming, this story will have you tapping out by the end!

Melissa invites us to Dixon, Kentucky, where we meet Amy and Tammy Slaton, stars of the TLC show, 1000 Pound Sisters. Much like their weight loss journeys, this story is full of ups and downs.)

Today’s episode will bring you two steps closer to knowing more about this “spunky” powerhouse whose early career was noticed by legends like the Jackson Five.
