Hosts Taija Mars McDougall, a professor, and Jake Flanagin, an attorney, analyze reality TV’s most chaotic, perplexing, and deranged moments through intersecting frameworks of critical theory, history, literature, economics, philosophy, psychology, and more. Think of them as the Margaret Murray and Jane Gooddall of the trash-content ecosystem, working toward a unified theory of spectacle, desire, and the human impulse to watch others unravel.
