The Good Edit Unfiltered is hosted by Elle Schwartz, a behavioral analyst and retired educator who watches reality television the way she spent a career watching people. Elle spent her working life in behavioral analysis, school counseling, special education, and university teaching. She now applies that training to how reality television is built, and to what the edit does to the women on screen. This is a show about context. The story an audience is handed is not always the story that happened. Elle challenges her listeners to understand the nuances of the housewife experience, including how that experience is sometimes shifted unfairly by the way an episode is cut. The result is analysis that takes these women seriously as people rather than punchlines. Every week brings scene by scene recaps, deep dive analysis, and conversations with rotating guests from across the reality and podcast worlds. Coverage spans the Bravo universe, Married at First Sight, and Love Island USA. The show is produced by Layered Media Inc. and Rude Mood Media, and executive produced by Elle Schwartz and Ric Swartzlander, a former comedy writer and showrunner with more than thirty years in television across CBS, NBC, ABC, and Disney, and a member of the Writers Guild of America. The Good Edit Unfiltered is the number one all time indie Real Housewives podcast on Goodpods and continues to rise in rank. The community is called the Edittors. Consider this your invitation.
