America鈥檚 Next Top Model 鈥� the reality competition series hosted by Tyra Banks 鈥� continues to face criticism years after it stopped airing. And it鈥檚 not the only reality show that critics say hasn鈥檛 aged well. From Cops to The Swan to Mr Beast鈥檚 new show Beast Games, reality TV routinely courts controversy.

We all know reality shows like The Traitors, Keeping Up with the Kardashians, The Real Housewives and Love Island. But how did the genre become so popular in the first place? We hear from Danielle Lindemann, a sociologist at Lehigh University and the author of 鈥楾rue Story: What Reality TV Says About Us鈥�. She explains how shows like The Real World and Survivor helped define the genre and unpacks some of the biggest scandals from reality TV history.

We also chat to Angelea Preston, a journalist in New York and a former ANTM contestant. She won Cycle 17 鈥� the show鈥檚 All-Stars edition 鈥� but had her title revoked after producers learned that she had worked briefly as an escort. She gives her take on some of the show鈥檚 most infamous photo shoots.

And what about makeover shows? Well Tawnya Perrotta 鈥� who appeared on TV as Tawnya Cooke 鈥� underwent several procedures for The Swan, a show where contestants spent months undergoing plastic surgery and therapy before competing in a beauty pageant.

And we hear from Big Brother Naija contestant Mr KayVee, who famously walked out of the house after having what he calls a 鈥渕ental breakdown.鈥�
