E17 Love Is Blind and Other Dating Reality TV (Part 1)

This episode, we’re joined by Lauren and June, two fellow PhD candidates and podcasters, to discuss Netflix’s Love is Blind and other dating/matchmaking reality shows. In the first part of two, we discuss how being on a reality show turns people into characters, get into our own reality TV viewing practices, and discover that Ayanni has seen way more of them than she thought!

You can find Lauren and June's new show, Under Review, where ever you get your podcasts. (But here's a link to their Spotify page: https://open.spotify.com/show/1H32AGeE1ZQeRSNfy3AATI?si=422e16fdf7bf4e8e)
