More annoying as it goes on.

"People were upset by a teenage girl dancing for money bc they were prudes" *INDIAN music plays* "look at this offensive Middle Eastern cliché!". This guy is full of horrible takes and is way too ignorant to be so easily offended.

I had never heard of the show Kid Nation and this podcast is a fascinating deep dive and look behind the scenes. I enjoyed this podcast and recommend it to others. 😊

Description

This is the inside story of one of the world’s most bizarre and ballsy reality dating shows. In early 2013 a group of twelve unsuspecting American women were flown to a sumptuous Elizabethan estate in the heart of the Berkshire countryside, where they competed for a chance to win the affections of one of the world’s most eligible bachelors. “Oh my god,” shouts one of the contestants as their suitor arrives by helicopter, “That’s Prince Harry!”. Bachelor Of Buckingham Palace tells the gripping, entertaining and unsettling story of how Fox duped a group of women into believing they were dating a man who was fifth in the line to the British throne.


Welcome to Split Screen, an examination of the utterly captivating, sometimes unsettling world of entertainment and pop culture. From reality TV gone awry, to the cult of celebrity, each season of Split Screen takes listeners on an evocative journey inside the world of showbiz. Ex-contestants, producers, and cultural critics uncover complicated truths behind TV’s carefully curated facades, and question what our entertainment reveals about us. Split Screen: sometimes reality is twisted.


Season 1 | Kid Nation: The true story behind one of reality TV’s most controversial experiments.

Season 2 | Thrill Seekers: A multi-million dollar media experiment. Would you fall for it?

Season 3 | Who Replaced Avril Lavigne? Was the Canadian punk pop sensation replaced by a look-alike?
