Tayne Talks: A Reality TV Podcast

I am joined by former reality TV producer, Liv to discuss all the BTS of reality TV. We chat about how she got into reality TV, some of the shows she has worked on and we even chat about her time as a MAFS producer. I ask her all the burning questions including some listener questions and her theories on some of our favorite current shows.

You can find Liv's podcast here.

We made it to the weddings but not without some more breakups. I recap the final episodes of the seasons as all the couples face some hard truths and a lot of emotions bubble up to the surface as the wedding is around the corner.

The couples continue to be miserable and I am convinced most of them are clout chasing. I recap all the many conversations and meetups and wonder how it's a miracle any of them are even making it down the altar.

Sweden is back with a new season and I recap the first batch of episodes where the couples don't seem happy to be here and don't seem to understand how the show works. There are loads of triangles and a devastating reveal.

Ade is back to recap the conclusion of the season as Ade tells us why this remains her favorite. We talk about the future seasons and how some storylines will be done, assuming they follow the books. We also get into the things they did well and some things that could have been done better and I ask - do you consider Bridgerton to be an American or British show?

Another season in the books. Brian and I break down the conclusion of the season with the not surprising weddings and the reunion. We enjoyed the reunion even if it had a lot of alumni, the Lacheys heard the criticism and came in with the questions (not all of them though).
