Do You Have What It Takes? Episode #1

We put an ad on Craigslist and invited people to audition for a show called “Do You Have What It Takes?” We gave no details other than that. They had no idea who was involved until they walked in and saw host Kenny Mayne and our panel of celebrity judges: Jimmy Kimmel, Chilli from TLC, Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Bachelorette star Ali Fedotowsky. Here it is, part reality show, part social experiment: episode one of #DoYouHaveWhatItTakes
