About this listen

Reality producers have more in common with contestants than you might think. Overworked, underpaid, they belong to the gig economy. And working for the reality TV machine - 16 hour days bending people to your will - exerts a toll on everyone involved.

This episode contains strong language and discussions around mental health and suicide which some listeners may find upsetting. If you feel affected by any of the themes in the show please visit the show page for the series where you will find links to organisations that can help you.

Engaging and interesting from the off. We all know that 'reality' TV isn't as real as it's presented to be, but the truth is even murkier than most people realise. A real eye-opener!
