  • Let’s stop talking about Trump

    The episode recap of Love is Blind was brutal, all you are focused is on their political views, we losing sight of the purpose of these episodes. I want to keep following but if this is what you are gonna focus on gonna have to unfollow 😞. Please let’s leave politics out.

    Perhaps talk to your guests - including Sue Funke- about No Politics or risk alienating 1/2 your audience.

    I listen to quite a few podcasts about reality TV and yours is one of my most favorite one!

Your new episodes are always something I look forward to. This is also the first review I have ever written about a podcast. lol hopefully someone reads this.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

You Know What You Did: The Hills with Lisa Whittington-Hill
Q: Do you think that The Hills would be as popular today as it was back then?
Whittington-Hill thinks it probably would not be as popular because reality TV audiences now expect more drama, social media changes how stars behave, and viewers can more readily scrutinize scripting and producer interference.
You Know What You Did: The Hills with Lisa Whittington-Hill
Q: Why were shows like The Hills aspirational?
Whittington-Hill says the show balanced glamour, including fashion shows, shopping and nightlife, with relatable experiences such as internships, entry-level jobs, first relationships and friendships.
Love is Blind: Weddings with Ayme Archer
Q: Do you think we will hear on the reunion that he and Benita gave it a go?
Ayme predicts the reunion may reveal more about Blake's behavior and his connection with Benita, though she does not expect the discussion to be contentious.
Love is Blind: Weddings with Ayme Archer
Q: What were your thoughts on this season overall?
Ayme says she did not enjoy the season overall, finding the early episodes slow and the story more compelling once Rob's storyline emerged.
Reality Roundup - The Bachelor, In The City, Southern Charm, LIB, RHONJ + The Valley
Q: What do you think is going on here?
Ali speculated that Luke may have been influenced by people around him and by conspiracy-oriented online culture, while Dana wondered whether Kristen was putting relationship concerns aside to focus on their baby.
