SHIT CHAT - The Bachelor, Soulmates and The Reality of Reality TV

Presented by Christina Karras and Ruby Staley
Edited by Christina Karras

SHIT CHAT is a podcast for A-Zine that takes a deep dive into pop culture, discussing what these things say about our 21st century society.

We are well into this season of The Bachelor with Matt Agnew, so in today’s episode, we discuss our love for the series and reality TV in general. We question, how close reality is to reality TV, and is our obsession with this insanely addictive culture problematic, or perhaps it’s merely symptom of entertainment.

Do soulmates even exist? Do shows like ‘The Bachelor’ portray relationships in a realistic and healthy way? And why do we love seeing this drama play out on screen so much?
