I have the IJ app, and they answer fan questions and one of the fans asked about being recognizing them and ruining their bits. They said they do a lot of stuff in wide open areas and plant "security" all over the places to look for people who identify the guys and pull them aside so they don't spoil it. And the popularity of the show means its harder for them to get through segments without someone figuring them out, but it all makes sense to me.
I believe it's real.
Exactly, I have heard them say multiple times that if they are recognized they put the people off to the side and the guys will sign stuff for them or take pictures after they are done shooting.
With any show on TV there will be always be stuff that is staged that is why I think 85-90% of the show is real.
