BONUS EP: ‘Us Weekly’ to City Hall? Spencer Pratt Makes His Case to Janice Min

Nearly 20 years ago, Spencer Pratt became reality TV infamous on the cover of Us Weekly. In this bonus episode, he sat down with Ankler Media CEO and editor-in-chief Janice Min — the editor who once put him there — to talk about his run for mayor of Los Angeles. Pratt calls Gavin Newsom a “demon” and a “reality star in charge of everything failing.” He slams the city’s response to the 2025 wildfires, argues L.A. isn’t ready for the Olympics — “not even ready for a USC game," claims he already has a Day One “blacklist” of city officials he’d fire and has sharp words for Hollywood unions and the CEOs who run the studios. It’s classic Pratt for those who first met him on MTV's The Hills: provocative, theatrical, and strategically aware of the spotlight. But it’s also a reminder that the machinery of fame and the machinery of politics are now fully intertwined. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
