The Scaries with Matty Rossi

Surprise! We’re dropping a special Halloween episode of The Scaries.

Resident Twink Billy Duke is back to catch up on everything that’s happened since we last left off — from our trip to Greece and the Berlin Marathon to Billy becoming the new host of Fallen Media’s Love Train… and somehow getting a new boyfriend (let’s see if that one lasts).

We’re also catching up on everything that’s gone down this Locktober, reading your Halloween Scaries, and ending with a chaotic game of This or That.

Expect costumes, chaos, and plenty of Scaries. Happy Halloween!

It’s the Season 2 finale of The Scaries, so we’re ending exactly how we should: catching up, answering the questions I’ve been avoiding, and getting into some of your latest Scaries.

I’m recapping the end of summer — from Labor Day in P-Town and my sister’s engagement to surviving NYFW and preparing for Mykonos and the Berlin Marathon. Then I answer your unfiltered questions about coming out, dating, sex, money, being a full-time creator, living in NYC vs. Boston, and why I’m taking a step back this fall.

Plus, we get into your latest Scaries involving dark rooms, hookups gone wrong, sleeping with coworkers, questionable Amazon deliveries, and more.

And before we say goodbye to Season 2, I may have one final update I’ve been keeping to myself… It’s not goodbye — it’s see you later. Thank you for an incredible Season 2. 🤍

This week, Matty is joined by Sam Cushing for his first-ever podcast appearance—and yes, he touches Matty’s wiener (Kirkland, obviously).

Fresh off a Labor Day weekend in Fire Island, Sam is in NYC for Fashion Week to talk all things gay life, dating, getting older, and figuring out what you actually want. Matty and Sam get into Fire Island vs. Ptown, whether Sam could see himself moving back to New York, hookup culture, saying “I love you” on the first date, and why dating in your 30s feels completely different than dating in your 20s.

They also talk marriage, kids, fear of intimacy, knowing whether it’s your gut or just anxiety talking, and the constant battle between wanting to be healthy and wanting to stay out dancing until 5 a.m. Plus, Sam closes things out with a rapid-fire round of This or That.

This week, Matty is joined by Bri Morales, former host of Are You Okay?, for a conversation that begs the question… are any of us actually okay?Bri talks about unexpectedly becoming the face of a viral interview series, what years of talking to strangers taught her about people (and herself), and why she ultimately decided to close that chapter and bet on what comes next.
They also get into having absolutely no idea what you’re doing with your life, being chronically online, internet trolls, burnout, oversharing with your coworkers, why nobody is thinking about your embarrassing moments as much as you are—and, naturally, whether or not they’d sleep with Shrek.Plus, Bri gives us a first look at the new show she’s building—and what’s next for her on her own.

This week, Matty is joined by Summer House’s Levi Sebree to talk about building a life in New York City, her career in fashion and events, and the unexpected path that landed her on reality TV.

Levi opens up about what made her say yes to Summer House, navigating the experience alongside longtime friend Bailey, and what viewers don’t always get to see when the cameras stop rolling. She also shares her perspective on the West and Amanda scandal that took over the season—and what it was like experiencing it all from inside the house.

Plus, they talk dating and friendships in NYC, starting over after a major life change, what the past year has taught her about herself, and whether she’d ever do reality TV again.
