Episode 56: TV Watch Party - Netflix's The Ultimatum Discussion and Critique
Manage episode 328575780 series 2931572
Naomi and Len team up to mentally damage Joel with details of Netflix's new hit, The Ultimatum, a 10part gameshow series which permanently destroys any Western notion of the "sanctity of marriage." Apparently couples who are on the rocks find new partners to date for 3 weeks and then try to rebuild their relationship with their partner or move on for greener pastures? This is a terrible idea, but we discuss why Netflix made such a thing and how dating shows created just for drama can improve both their structure and how deeply they impact the participants.

We strongly urge our listeners to support the work of Planned Parenthood by donating here. For the indefinite future all Patreon donations will go to them, NARAL, or other orgs doing good work across the nation.
