The Trash Collectors

SHANNON DID NOTHING WRONG! Our belated episode recapping the finale of Season 5 of MTV's Are You the One. Spoilers: the kids, they don't do so good. And we here at the Trash Collectors couldn't be happier about that. Who won the fantasy league? Was that Alicia's real hair that was pulled out? Who's the most garbage person on the show? The answers to most of these questions AND MORE in this, our thrilling conclusion!

The best laid plans of drunk children often just, man, go really, really, bad. The contestants of Are You the One have come up with what might be an amazing strategy, but can they prevent themselves from sabotaging it every step of the way? Come on. You know better than that! We also discuss the much better show of Stranded With a Million Dollars, and how those folks' terrible strategy is going.

Oh boy, are these drunken children bad at this game! We're barreling toward the end of MTV's Are You the One, and both Adam and Chris wish they were watching better shows. Of course, Chris's better show is another MTV reality show, but what can you do? In addition to discussing exactly how bad these contestants are at the game they're playing, we discuss terrible charity ideas, our glorious Bat-Dad future, and the importance of proper hydration.

It's a long one this week, because in addition to our ongoing chronicling of the train wreck of a show that is MTV's Are You the One, we take some time to talk about their other show Stranded with a Million Dollars. We discuss the growing membership of the Gianna Club, strategies for dealing with bullies on a deserted island, and manage to ensure that we can never make money off this podcast. Join us!

It's a bad showing for both the drunk children of Are You the One and for our fantasy leagues in this week's episode. The psychological damage of watching this garbage show and coming up with nothing but defeat takes its toll, and we start making up rules for a fantasy league based on chairs. Guaranteed excitement!

Adam and Chris have upped the ante and turned this podcast into a competition with the Are You the One fantasy league. Thankfully, the drunk children of MTV's garbage show are back with a vengeance, managing to screw things up even when they succeed.

A strange alignment of the stars caused our hosts to switch opinions on the show, as this episode of MTV's Are You the One wasn't a giant pile of trash. There was still trash, it was just scattered around the edges. Dreams come true and dreams are shattered in this, our latest episode.

It's math class this week on MTV's Are You the One, with the contestants assembling relationship drama in all manner of different polygons. Some contestants are too drunk for this, while Adam clearly isn't drunk enough. Thankfully, we've got Derrick to give us the play-by-play.

We (only Chris, really) goofed up real bad by screwing up the recording of an episode, while the contestants of MTV's Are You the One goofed up even worse. Learn about the intoxicating scent known as Frito Feet and see who can be the drunkest, saddest girl at the party. The answer: it's all of us. We're all the drunkest girl at the party.

Adam and Chris embark on an amazing adventure filled with garbage people (both people who collect garbage and people who are garbage), corn cob tattoos, and absurdly overproduced dating shows designed to make the contestants fail with MTV's reality show Are You the One.
