Show Notes
This week on @betches, Sami and Aleen unpack the weirdest cultural crossover of the moment: rewatching early reality TV through 2026 eyes. They break down the America’s Next Top Model doc (and the trauma of it all), how the show aged, and if Tyra Banks seems remorseful. Then it is Olympics time, with a truly jaw dropping story about ski jumpers injecting hyaluronic acid and updates on the Olympic Village condom shortage. Olympians are truly freakyyy. Finally, Sami breaks down the Tell Me Lies series finale which has Aleen truly gooped and gagged.
