Welcome to this engaging episode of “3 Cocktails In,” where we delve deep into the captivating world of reality television! Get ready for light-hearted banter as we engage in lively discussions about our favorite—and most dubious—reality TV shows. We share our heartfelt and often humorous recollections of classics like “Survivor” and more modern hits such as “The Bachelor.” As we navigate the crazy world of reality TV, we shine a light on why we keep coming back for more, despite the eye-roll-worthy moments found in every episode.
In the midst of our laughter, we explore the repetitive yet strangely comforting tropes widely used in reality shows. Whether it's a generic home makeover trend or the polished reality romance, we reflect on what keeps viewers hooked. Our conversation takes a creative turn as we brainstorm new ideas for reality TV, such as shows where your friends choose your date for you—imagine the unpredictable turns of events that could stem from that concept!
Join us as we dissect and critique the current state of reality TV, considering its implications on society. Through our playful exchanges, we unearth what these shows reflect back about real life and our relationships. Be part of the ongoing conversation—what do you think makes reality TV delightful or devastating?

But hey, thanks for listening.
It's coffee talk at that pointin the morning, maybe coffee,
(02:30):
that is right.
Well, guess what our topic istoday?
We are going to talk aboutreality TV.
Maybe come up with our ownideas for reality TV.
Yes, right, yeah, do you guyshave a favorite you like
(02:50):
watching?
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Who wants to start?
Speaker 5 (02:56):
Well, I watched anything real recently, but I
used to be totally in on Bravoand I watched real high-end
shows Swipes of New York.
I watched real Beverly Hills, Iwatched Vanderpump Rules, I
(03:18):
watched all of that and then Idon't know what happened, but I
stopped watching.
I don't know what happened, butI stopped watching.
I think it got to be too muchbecause I was talking to the TV
and yelling at the TV just likeI do during a baseball game.
You know about things and Ithink I just needed to.
You know, self-care, dial itback a little bit.
(03:38):
Yep, how about you?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
guys, what are you watching?
So for me, for a long time Igot into the competition reality
shows.
I loved the not.
Amazing Race.
Amazing Race.
No, so not the Voice right now,but what was the first one?
American Idol, american.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Idol.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Loved, loved, loved watching that one, Um, and, but
then kind of fell away.
I've watched a little bit ofthe voice, um.
I watched the Kardashians, um,and I have really gotten into
the Bachelor and theBachelorette, even though you
(04:30):
guys know I cannot standwatching people flirt with each
other and watching people likekiss and make out and stuff like
that.
I'm telling you I'm not a prude, it's not that I just cannot
stand watching people do that.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
So, yeah, I'm so yeah , I am right now the whole um
making out on tv on thoseparticular shows.
Look so fake.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
Yeah, I mean yeah, yeah, because I'm sure they have
to get the camera right.
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (05:07):
Anything goes right.
How many takes?
Does it take yeah?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Yeah, ew, that's what I want.
Yeah, it was right.
Yeah, I have.
You know, I was big intoSurvivor real early on and
stopped watching that.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Oh, I forgot about Survivor, yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
I too liked all the music For a long time.
I watched I don't know how manymillion seasons of American
Idol, of course.
I don't know how many seasonsof the Voice and just don't.
Yeah, I just lose interestafter probably you know, 10, 12
seasons, I don't know.
The one thing we haven'tbrought up is like all the home
(05:44):
makeover ones you know that werepopular for a long time, where
they would, you know, somebodywould go help you make over your
house or something.
There was a lot of those thatwe would watch, yeah.
So, there's been reallyinteresting ones over the years.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
When you talk about the home makeover shows, you
know if you watch a couple andthey're all couple shows you
know recently, I mean, how manytan beige houses with shiplap
walls can you watch?
Yes, you know, they're all thefreaking same.
(06:24):
And then you watch some thatare you're like whoa, you just
did what to that house.
This looks like some 12 yearold and their cousin decided on
a Saturday to do something.
Some of it is so hideous.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Yeah, there was that one where they would the.
They would swap houses and theone couple would redo the one
and the other would redo theother.
And I saw one one time wherewhere one of the couples was so
mad because it was so bad, youknow, and they have a designer
and helpers and whatever to it,so it's not like they could just
(07:09):
do whatever bad thing theywanted.
You know, the designer could.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
Yeah, cause I did see some doozies on that show.
Yeah, yeah, there were someweird.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
I mean it's it's all for entertainment, that's what
it is so.
So, just like you know, justlike with the bachelor, it's all
for entertainment, that's whatit is.
So, just like with the Bachelor, when they cast those women and
vice versa, when they cast themen for the women, they're
picking people that they knowwill be the drama kings or drama
queens so that you get somespiciness happening.
(07:41):
So, yeah, they get you know.
Sure, they say, oh, you want todo what?
Yeah, that'll make good TV Sure.
And with the, with the home, allof the home improvement stuff.
I I watched a little bit ofthat but I got tired of it
really quickly, Like you said,amy, because it was all the same
and it was too contrived, itwas too scripted.
(08:05):
So I feel like there's a lot ofreality tv that doesn't feel
scripted.
It still may be, but it doesn'tfeel scripted like like those
home improvement shows I feellike they are.
They're not even good scriptreaders, it's like you know,
it's like you are reading yourlines.
(08:25):
That turns me off.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
There.
I clearly I love home shows, um, so sometimes I watch these
things just to see what homesare like in other areas.
I think that there's somethingon the Discovery Channel, one of
those weird, not weird but notmainstream TV channels, where
it's Maine Cabin Masters andit's this brother and sister and
(08:54):
their three knucklehead friendsOne drives a Bobcat and has
like four teeth and another one,you know and they go out into
the wilds of Maine and they dosome a really kind of I mean, I
don't mean architecturally cool,but they do kind of do some
cool settings sort of thing.
(09:15):
And I am very interested inthat, not because of the
dialogue but because of thesetting, and you can't script,
you know the setting, so I findthat.
And then all the house hunters.
I still enjoy a good househunters international, not the,
not the us ones.
I like the international againbecause I look at it as
(09:37):
sightseeing.
What do houses look like, likein there?
Now?
Yeah, dude, god well, orsomewhere.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
Yes, so I put those.
There's one where they go, Idon't know which one it is, but
they, it's a couple, couplesthat are looking to buy houses,
and so the realtor shows themthree different houses, and then
they pick the one they want,and it always seems, like, you
know, they have this ginormousbudget.
(10:09):
You know, like you know well,we can only spend, you know, 1.2
million dollars, it's like what, what, yeah, and and it doesn't
look like a $1.2 million house.
usually it must be, you know, onthe coast, somewhere where
they're really expensive.
Speaker 5 (10:30):
I like the memes of those shows where they say you
know that he grows butterfliesfor TV shows and she runs you
know a home pet health caresituation and they have a $7
million budget or something.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Yeah, I know right.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
I don't know how that flies, but whatever.
Yeah, oh gosh, really I have afunny one.
I have not seen it, but mynephew, you know my 20 year old
nephew and his 20 year oldgirlfriend, she, um, she texted
me.
Hey, talk about this on yourpodcast.
(11:13):
This one is called MILF.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Manor.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
There's been two seasons.
Yeah, can you imagine?
So I, I did say MIL m-i-l-f.
If you don't know what that is,you're gonna have to google it.
I'm not gonna say um yes thepremise is that?
Yes, right, gts.
So these 40 to 60 year oldwomen go to mexico, to a resort,
(11:42):
in hopes of finding connectionwith 20-year-old men.
So they all go.
There's a catch?
Yes, right, bad enough.
However, there's a catch.
The catch is they invite their20-year-old sons.
(12:02):
Oh, at the same time.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
Yes, so you're stuck there watching your 20 year old
son, you know try to make aconnection with other women His
grandma, his mom, grandma friend.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
Yeah, pretty much yeah.
The New York Times said thisone has hit rock bottom in
reality.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
Good, I'm glad somebody said it.
That's just trash, that'shorrible.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Some things are so bad.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
I know, yeah, that's just trash.
And I mean I do feel a littletrashy watching Bachelor and
Bachelorette.
I don't think that things likelike, if you're the parent of a
12-year-old girl, don't let themwatch those shows, or even 16.
(13:00):
That's not going to be helpfulto anybody.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
A reality show, but not the least bit real.
It's not how things are goingto be.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
I wonder if it would be a good show to get your girls
to watch, so they can see howstupid and awful other girls can
be and how totally superficialsome men are, so that they learn
to look for the red flags infriends and in relationships but
(13:37):
you gotta sit there and watchit with them yeah, I agree, and
ideally, yeah, I agree, andideally, ideally, yes, but I
don't the reality of thatactually being, because it was
pre-COVID, I was you know, goingto a bunch of shows, and I
(14:06):
remember Gudrun and I happenedon it and that's all we watched
for.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
Like the whole time I think we were in Houston or
Austin or Austin probably, and Ithought that that was an
excellent premise, where youlearn about the person before
you ever meet them.
Yeah, but before you see them.
Yeah, before, yes, before yousee them.
I mean you've talked to them.
You talk to a bunch ofdifferent people.
(14:32):
You talk one assumes you talkabout kind of important things,
but even that all went off therails because people say they
want one thing until they meetsomebody and they're not hot
enough or they don't look rightOn that topic, it's been very
interesting because the currentseason of Love is Blind that is
(14:53):
being shown is set inMinneapolis and if you listen to
talk, radio up here if youlisten to talk radio and stuff
up here, people are dogging onsome of the men that are on it
saying, for a lack of a betterterm, they're manhose, that
everybody has a story about someof them and they've been
(15:16):
through the dating circles and,yeah, and it's very white bread
evidently.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
Because people know, because people local people know
who they are.
Is that the deal?
Speaker 5 (15:28):
Yeah, and a lot of different circles have stories
about a few of them, so they'renot necessarily you know.
They're on it for the show,they're on it for the thing.
So, good idea.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
I think you could say that for the Bachelor and
Bachelorette franchise also, andeven probably Senior, senior,
bachelor.
Those people, a lot of thepeople, go on there to be
discovered and to become thenext big social media you know
Instagram star, and many of themhave, yeah, I mean yeah, many,
(16:10):
many of them now have verylucrative careers as influencers
or some sort of you know public.
Who knows how long it will be,but yeah, yeah, so we started,
we started kind of chattingabout this topic and we started
thinking about what would make,what would make a good reality
(16:34):
tv show.
Yeah, like a real reality.
Have any good ideas?
I, I have an idea.
Okay, what is it Go ahead aslong as it's not me going on.
Well, I'm going to give creditto Bill on this one, because
this came out of a conversationthat he and I were having.
(16:55):
But yeah, I mean, I did so.
You know, golden Bachelor andGolden Bachelorette they are
taking applications right now.
Golden bachelor and goldenbachelorette they are taking
applications right now.
So you know, the only singleone here is miss Amy.
So anyway, but no, no, we won'ttalk about that.
(17:16):
So the idea is so what if it isa dating reality show, but
instead of you, the personpicking your friends pick for
you.
So the person who's thebachelor or the person who's the
(17:37):
bachelorette, they are on theshow and they're part of it,
they're part of all theactivities.
But you've got this group oftwo or three besties or people
that you have said all right,you're going to pick for me, and
then you don't have any say init.
You're involved, you'reinterviewing, you know you're
(17:57):
having interactions, they'reobserving interactions and they
pick the person for you.
Speaker 5 (18:06):
Okay, as the single person with two friends who have
opinions, if you could pickpeople for me, how's that?
Speaker 3 (18:24):
going to go Okay if you could pick people for me why
haven't you done it yet?
Speaker 4 (18:27):
Because we don't have the pool.
Because we don't have the pool,we don't have the pool, so
we're going to rely on the showwe need some choices.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
The show is going to recruit everybody, they're going
to go through the vettingprocess and then, of that, then
we help make the selection.
Speaker 5 (18:46):
I do think that that has potential for me.
But for somebody else and I dothink it would be pretty, damn
funny because you, because I'mjust thinking about, if you two
really were doing that for me, Iwould be out on a date with
somebody and the whole timegoing I'm gonna kill them.
What in God's name did theythink?
Did they even talk to thisperson?
You know what about me says Iwould like that you know.
(19:10):
So it, it could be a reallygood psychological sort of uh,
experiment, yeah, yeah.
A test group groups A and B.
Somebody take a note?
A test group groups A and B.
Somebody take a note?
There you go.
I think we should pitch theidea I think you already have,
and somebody's going to listento us, I'm sure, and it's going
(19:31):
to probably be next season.
We'll be out there, all right.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Yeah, we need some quick legal language here.
All ideas generated here on theThree Cocktails In podcast are
solely the property of theowners of Three Cocktails In.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Exactly, I know.
You know what could we, whatcould we pitch?
You know that has to do withcooking.
I've got one I tried to pitch.
You know that has to do withI've got one.
I tried to do you good.
Go, because mine are, mine arejust half ideas.
They're not full ideas.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
Go ahead so this one came out of a conversation that
I had with my sister, um, andfor whatever reason, we were
probably bitching about groceryshopping or something and
talking about.
You know, sharing recipes andstuff as we do are dead because
neither one of us have kids inthe house anymore, so evidently
we don't cook anymore.
But I think that there'd be anexcellent cooking show where one
(20:36):
celebrity chef has to come intoyour kitchen on any random day.
They don't know where they'regoing.
They have like five houses onthe block.
They get to pick one of thefive.
They cannot bring their owntools, their own spices or any
ingredients.
They have to come in and make adinner for five or for four out
(21:00):
of solely using the equipment,the pots and pans, the
seasonings and the ingredientsfound in this home.
That is what I want to see.
I don't want to have to go outand buy 2 million different
spices to make some dish.
Come in my house and show mewhat I can make with what I have
(21:23):
here yeah, I like it.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
I think that's a good one.
I like it.
I like it.
Yeah, mine were.
Mine weren't that well thoughtout?
Something to do with, you know,people coming in and like
cleaning out my refrigerator andtrying to pick out all the
stuff that's expired.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
I have three daughters who would come over
and gladly do that, because itseems like they do that to me
every time they come over and ifit is like a day past the date
on it, they throw it out date onit.
Speaker 4 (22:05):
they throw it out.
Do you, do you guys?
Well, maybe we, maybe we have ataste test and you have to
taste it and decide if it'sexpired or not.
Maybe that's it, Cause I don'tthink some stuff expires.
Speaker 5 (22:12):
That's what I was going to ask Doesn't it say best
if used by?
It doesn't say don't use itafter this date or you're going
to get food poisoning right.
Just says best buy yeah that'snot a hard date.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
Yeah no, especially spices and some condiments and
those things.
Speaker 5 (22:34):
I don't think they really expire I think when you
open a thing of spices and youcan't smell, it doesn't like
knock you off your feet withsmell throw that one out, yeah
yeah, yeah, cream of tartar,baking soda, baking powder,
throw them out.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
Pretty much everything else, yeah yeah, yeah
, I would think you could use it.
Oh funny, what else?
What other silly ideas do wehave Anything good?
Speaking of the Kardashians,there would be more interesting
(23:19):
people that I could think of tofollow around and have a camera
in their face all the time, likeour favorites.
Wouldn't it be hilarious tofollow Melissa McCarthy around
day after day after day A?
Speaker 3 (23:32):
day in the life.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
I would like to see a video of their, like breakfast
or dinner every day with she andher husband who is also
hysterical and their two kids,like yeah, you know, I don't
need really you know, and ofcourse they wouldn't do it, but
yes, I totally agree that thatwould be good, right now, yeah,
see what they do all day.
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Of course they wouldn't do it, but yes, I
totally agree that that would begood, I know.
Yeah, see what they do all day.
What if it would ruin the magicthough?
Could she do anything?
You mean like we'd like her.
We'd like her just based on heracting, and that if we saw her
normal day, we would say meh.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
I wonder if she would feel like she had to be funny,
or if she could truly, you know,knowing that their camera's
there, could she just be herself.
Some people can't, some peoplein that you know, especially
comedians um, they, they can'tdo it um, okay, I've got a.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
I've got a guilty pleasure that I've got to admit
to everybody about these realitysituations and I'm going to
blame the Reels on Instagram andnow, of course, my feed is
flooded Karen cam.
It's the, these people whorecord situations where a Karen
(25:01):
goes off and and they're weirdneighbors and they're seemingly
normal people that just losetheir shit about stupid stuff
and the dash cam or the cop camwhen they're chasing down.
And I mean, I am a white womanof a certain age and I hate to
(25:29):
say it, but there are a lot ofstupid white women of a certain
age that really are giving allof us a bad name.
Oh, but I can't help watchingthem.
There's just something trainwreckish about it, without being
violent and without being youknow, yeah, it's just they're
just like screaming at somebodyover something stupid.
It's like you know, when yourkids were little and they were
(25:50):
toddlers and they pitched a fitabout something and you couldn't
help but laugh, or, you know,try not to laugh at them while
it was going on, but theirreaction is so out of proportion
to what is happening that itgets comical.
Yeah, that's what I feel aboutthese.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
There are so many that I question that they're
even real, you know.
So maybe some are and somearen't, I don't know.
But oh my gosh, are people nuts?
Speaker 5 (26:21):
yeah, yeah, I get it.
You know, you know, you guys, Ihate awkward, I really hate
awkward.
I can't watch awkward on TV.
Um I anything that is supercringe worthy.
I got to leave the room.
So I think it's just that theseare 30 second clips, that I can
(26:43):
watch them and then move on,but they do make me laugh and
for that I am thankful and forthat I am thankful Bill and I
were talking about this when wewere on vacation.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
So I am fascinated with kind of the behind the
scenes on things.
I've always wanted to just sitin a big restaurant kitchen and
just watch how things happen,and so we were at this all
inclusive and I'm I just thinkit's.
It's amazing how these, thesethings, these experiences, run.
How do they create that muchfood, how do they create a
(27:28):
process around seven differentrestaurants and service and
entertainers and all of thesethings.
I would love and this is more adocumentary than reality tv but
you could blend the two.
You could.
You could find an interestingway to blend the two, but I
would love to see how does ithappen?
Speaker 5 (27:48):
it's almost not watch .
Bear the bear, no, yeah, thebear that yeah, you find it that
needs to go to the top of yourlist.
All right, because that isexactly what you love.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Yes, it is how crazy.
Speaker 5 (28:09):
And yeah, you know trying to source food and one
guy gets locked in the freezer.
Is it real, though, or is it?
Speaker 3 (28:19):
fiction no, no, but it knows.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
So that would be interesting.
It's really good and actually Isaw a casting that they were
actually looking for real peopleto be part of the cast.
It's set in Chicago, so I thinkit's pretty, pretty accurate,
would be my assumption.
Speaker 4 (28:42):
Okay, I would say yeah, yeah, yep, it's good, you
need to watch it.
So people may not know this,but kitty likes to watch people
fall down.
Yes, she does.
So the funny is yes, she likesto see people fall down, so she
(29:07):
we.
That's what we do.
We send her reels of people.
Did you like you?
Speaker 5 (29:11):
like the one where the dad laid down on the bed and
the kid flipped up and hit thewall.
Oh my God, that was the bestSlap.
Speaker 4 (29:21):
I know they are funny .
I don't know what we couldpitch to just have that.
Do you remember?
Did you ever see Jackass?
Do you know what I'm talkingabout this?
Speaker 5 (29:33):
show.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
You know that I watched about two minutes of it
and had to turn it off right,yeah, it's, it's bad, but
something along those lineswhere you know you're yeah, you
know watching for people to tripand fall down I don't like
watching things like punked,where they set somebody up to do
(29:55):
like really that's too muchyeah.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, if you're doing it toyourself, you know, like Jackass
did, that's one thing, but yeah, punk'd where.
I mean that's got to be totallyembarrassing that you're
falling for, yeah, some of thestuff they you know some of the
(30:18):
stuff.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
Here's another one that I thought was an
interesting premise, butexecution was poor and that was
undercover boss.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
Oh yeah, why did they have to wear like a dorky
mustache?
I don't think it was everbelievable.
No, it was never believable, Idon't think it was ever
believable?
Speaker 4 (30:36):
no, it was never believable.
I don't think so either.
I just think of, I just thinkof some, you know, not even like
my direct boss, but I know whatthe high up you know, you know
owners and ceos and whateverwhat they look like.
I don't think you coulddisguise them and bring them in
where I wouldn't say, yeah, youknow what I mean.
(30:56):
Yeah, it never seemed verybelievable Good premise, poor
execution.
Yeah, yeah, I think so.
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
I'd love to know what other reality thoughts other
people.
What are they watching?
What are you watching?
Yeah, what should we give a try, knowing that kitty likes to
watch people fall?
I, like a good cop, cam stacy'slooking for somebody to come
and eat food that could berotten yes, it could be rotten,
(31:27):
you know, and that was thepremise of early survivor.
Speaker 4 (31:31):
They would have them eat bugs and worms and gross
stuff.
I don't think they have to dothat challenge anymore.
Speaker 5 (31:40):
Well, we didn't even talk about naked and afraid.
Okay, that is one that I wantto talk about.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Why, why, why does anybody have to be naked?
Speaker 4 (31:52):
It's like cold.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
You can't be hoody and afraid wax and afraid it
just doesn't have that ring toit no, it doesn't, and it's
funny that you know they, youknow um, fuzzed out.
Speaker 4 (32:09):
You know some of the nakedness.
I mean, I mean it's naked andthey're on there naked, so why
do we have to fuzz it out?
Speaker 5 (32:17):
I always thought that was a funny part it could be
swimsuit and afraid, you know,bikini or whatever you get.
You get to pick your swimsuitand that's and afraid yeah,
sketchchy and afraid.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Which, by the way, in a future episode we're going to
be talking about the Oscars.
Should we talk about ScantilyClad?
Speaker 4 (32:45):

charge of a professionalbasketball team.
It's based on a true story butit's good, it's funny, it's

you know, early, early listenerson Thursday.
I wouldn't do it.
But hey, thanks for listening.
It's coffee talk at that pointin the morning, maybe coffee,
(02:30):
that is right.
Well, guess what our topic istoday?
We are going to talk aboutreality TV.
Maybe come up with our ownideas for reality TV.
Yes, right, yeah, do you guyshave a favorite you like
(02:50):
watching?
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Who wants to start?
Speaker 5 (02:56):
Well, I watched anything real recently, but I
used to be totally in on Bravoand I watched real high-end
shows Swipes of New York.
I watched real Beverly Hills, Iwatched Vanderpump Rules, I
(03:18):
watched all of that and then Idon't know what happened, but I
stopped watching.
I don't know what happened, butI stopped watching.
I think it got to be too muchbecause I was talking to the TV
and yelling at the TV just likeI do during a baseball game.
You know about things and Ithink I just needed to.
You know, self-care, dial itback a little bit.
(03:38):
Yep, how about you?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
guys, what are you watching?
So for me, for a long time Igot into the competition reality
shows.
I loved the not.
Amazing Race.
Amazing Race.
No, so not the Voice right now,but what was the first one?
American Idol, american.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Idol.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Loved, loved, loved watching that one, Um, and, but
then kind of fell away.
I've watched a little bit ofthe voice, um.
I watched the Kardashians, um,and I have really gotten into
the Bachelor and theBachelorette, even though you
(04:30):
guys know I cannot standwatching people flirt with each
other and watching people likekiss and make out and stuff like
that.
I'm telling you I'm not a prude, it's not that I just cannot
stand watching people do that.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
So, yeah, I'm so yeah , I am right now the whole um
making out on tv on thoseparticular shows.
Look so fake.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
Yeah, I mean yeah, yeah, because I'm sure they have
to get the camera right.
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (05:07):
Anything goes right.
How many takes?
Does it take yeah?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Yeah, ew, that's what I want.
Yeah, it was right.
Yeah, I have.
You know, I was big intoSurvivor real early on and
stopped watching that.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Oh, I forgot about Survivor, yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
I too liked all the music For a long time.
I watched I don't know how manymillion seasons of American
Idol, of course.
I don't know how many seasonsof the Voice and just don't.
Yeah, I just lose interestafter probably you know, 10, 12
seasons, I don't know.
The one thing we haven'tbrought up is like all the home
(05:44):
makeover ones you know that werepopular for a long time, where
they would, you know, somebodywould go help you make over your
house or something.
There was a lot of those thatwe would watch, yeah.
So, there's been reallyinteresting ones over the years.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
When you talk about the home makeover shows, you
know if you watch a couple andthey're all couple shows you
know recently, I mean, how manytan beige houses with shiplap
walls can you watch?
Yes, you know, they're all thefreaking same.
(06:24):
And then you watch some thatare you're like whoa, you just
did what to that house.
This looks like some 12 yearold and their cousin decided on
a Saturday to do something.
Some of it is so hideous.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Yeah, there was that one where they would the.
They would swap houses and theone couple would redo the one
and the other would redo theother.
And I saw one one time wherewhere one of the couples was so
mad because it was so bad, youknow, and they have a designer
and helpers and whatever to it,so it's not like they could just
(07:09):
do whatever bad thing theywanted.
You know, the designer could.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
Yeah, cause I did see some doozies on that show.
Yeah, yeah, there were someweird.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
I mean it's it's all for entertainment, that's what
it is so.
So, just like you know, justlike with the bachelor, it's all
for entertainment, that's whatit is.
So, just like with the Bachelor, when they cast those women and
vice versa, when they cast themen for the women, they're
picking people that they knowwill be the drama kings or drama
queens so that you get somespiciness happening.
(07:41):
So, yeah, they get you know.
Sure, they say, oh, you want todo what?
Yeah, that'll make good TV Sure.
And with the, with the home, allof the home improvement stuff.
I I watched a little bit ofthat but I got tired of it
really quickly, Like you said,amy, because it was all the same
and it was too contrived, itwas too scripted.
(08:05):
So I feel like there's a lot ofreality tv that doesn't feel
scripted.
It still may be, but it doesn'tfeel scripted like like those
home improvement shows I feellike they are.
They're not even good scriptreaders, it's like you know,
it's like you are reading yourlines.
(08:25):
That turns me off.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
There.
I clearly I love home shows, um, so sometimes I watch these
things just to see what homesare like in other areas.
I think that there's somethingon the Discovery Channel, one of
those weird, not weird but notmainstream TV channels, where
it's Maine Cabin Masters andit's this brother and sister and
(08:54):
their three knucklehead friendsOne drives a Bobcat and has
like four teeth and another one,you know and they go out into
the wilds of Maine and they dosome a really kind of I mean, I
don't mean architecturally cool,but they do kind of do some
cool settings sort of thing.
(09:15):
And I am very interested inthat, not because of the
dialogue but because of thesetting, and you can't script,
you know the setting, so I findthat.
And then all the house hunters.
I still enjoy a good househunters international, not the,
not the us ones.
I like the international againbecause I look at it as
(09:37):
sightseeing.
What do houses look like, likein there?
Now?
Yeah, dude, god well, orsomewhere.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
Yes, so I put those.
There's one where they go, Idon't know which one it is, but
they, it's a couple, couplesthat are looking to buy houses,
and so the realtor shows themthree different houses, and then
they pick the one they want,and it always seems, like, you
know, they have this ginormousbudget.
(10:09):
You know, like you know well,we can only spend, you know, 1.2
million dollars, it's like what, what, yeah, and and it doesn't
look like a $1.2 million house.
usually it must be, you know, onthe coast, somewhere where
they're really expensive.
Speaker 5 (10:30):
I like the memes of those shows where they say you
know that he grows butterfliesfor TV shows and she runs you
know a home pet health caresituation and they have a $7
million budget or something.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Yeah, I know right.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
I don't know how that flies, but whatever.
Yeah, oh gosh, really I have afunny one.
I have not seen it, but mynephew, you know my 20 year old
nephew and his 20 year oldgirlfriend, she, um, she texted
me.
Hey, talk about this on yourpodcast.
(11:13):
This one is called MILF.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Manor.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
There's been two seasons.
Yeah, can you imagine?
So I, I did say MIL m-i-l-f.
If you don't know what that is,you're gonna have to google it.
I'm not gonna say um yes thepremise is that?
Yes, right, gts.
So these 40 to 60 year oldwomen go to mexico, to a resort,
(11:42):
in hopes of finding connectionwith 20-year-old men.
So they all go.
There's a catch?
Yes, right, bad enough.
However, there's a catch.
The catch is they invite their20-year-old sons.
(12:02):
Oh, at the same time.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
Yes, so you're stuck there watching your 20 year old
son, you know try to make aconnection with other women His
grandma, his mom, grandma friend.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
Yeah, pretty much yeah.
The New York Times said thisone has hit rock bottom in
reality.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
Good, I'm glad somebody said it.
That's just trash, that'shorrible.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Some things are so bad.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
I know, yeah, that's just trash.
And I mean I do feel a littletrashy watching Bachelor and
Bachelorette.
I don't think that things likelike, if you're the parent of a
12-year-old girl, don't let themwatch those shows, or even 16.
(13:00):
That's not going to be helpfulto anybody.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
A reality show, but not the least bit real.
It's not how things are goingto be.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
I wonder if it would be a good show to get your girls
to watch, so they can see howstupid and awful other girls can
be and how totally superficialsome men are, so that they learn
to look for the red flags infriends and in relationships but
(13:37):
you gotta sit there and watchit with them yeah, I agree, and
ideally, yeah, I agree, andideally, ideally, yes, but I
don't the reality of thatactually being, because it was
pre-COVID, I was you know, goingto a bunch of shows, and I
(14:06):
remember Gudrun and I happenedon it and that's all we watched
for.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
Like the whole time I think we were in Houston or
Austin or Austin probably, and Ithought that that was an
excellent premise, where youlearn about the person before
you ever meet them.
Yeah, but before you see them.
Yeah, before, yes, before yousee them.
I mean you've talked to them.
You talk to a bunch ofdifferent people.
(14:32):
You talk one assumes you talkabout kind of important things,
but even that all went off therails because people say they
want one thing until they meetsomebody and they're not hot
enough or they don't look rightOn that topic, it's been very
interesting because the currentseason of Love is Blind that is
(14:53):
being shown is set inMinneapolis and if you listen to
talk, radio up here if youlisten to talk radio and stuff
up here, people are dogging onsome of the men that are on it
saying, for a lack of a betterterm, they're manhose, that
everybody has a story about someof them and they've been
(15:16):
through the dating circles and,yeah, and it's very white bread
evidently.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
Because people know, because people local people know
who they are.
Is that the deal?
Speaker 5 (15:28):
Yeah, and a lot of different circles have stories
about a few of them, so they'renot necessarily you know.
They're on it for the show,they're on it for the thing.
So, good idea.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
I think you could say that for the Bachelor and
Bachelorette franchise also, andeven probably Senior, senior,
bachelor.
Those people, a lot of thepeople, go on there to be
discovered and to become thenext big social media you know
Instagram star, and many of themhave, yeah, I mean yeah, many,
(16:10):
many of them now have verylucrative careers as influencers
or some sort of you know public.
Who knows how long it will be,but yeah, yeah, so we started,
we started kind of chattingabout this topic and we started
thinking about what would make,what would make a good reality
(16:34):
tv show.
Yeah, like a real reality.
Have any good ideas?
I, I have an idea.
Okay, what is it Go ahead aslong as it's not me going on.
Well, I'm going to give creditto Bill on this one, because
this came out of a conversationthat he and I were having.
(16:55):
But yeah, I mean, I did so.
You know, golden Bachelor andGolden Bachelorette they are
taking applications right now.
Golden bachelor and goldenbachelorette they are taking
applications right now.
So you know, the only singleone here is miss Amy.
So anyway, but no, no, we won'ttalk about that.
(17:16):
So the idea is so what if it isa dating reality show, but
instead of you, the personpicking your friends pick for
you.
So the person who's thebachelor or the person who's the
(17:37):
bachelorette, they are on theshow and they're part of it,
they're part of all theactivities.
But you've got this group oftwo or three besties or people
that you have said all right,you're going to pick for me, and
then you don't have any say init.
You're involved, you'reinterviewing, you know you're
(17:57):
having interactions, they'reobserving interactions and they
pick the person for you.
Speaker 5 (18:06):
Okay, as the single person with two friends who have
opinions, if you could pickpeople for me, how's that?
Speaker 3 (18:24):
going to go Okay if you could pick people for me why
haven't you done it yet?
Speaker 4 (18:27):
Because we don't have the pool.
Because we don't have the pool,we don't have the pool, so
we're going to rely on the showwe need some choices.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
The show is going to recruit everybody, they're going
to go through the vettingprocess and then, of that, then
we help make the selection.
Speaker 5 (18:46):
I do think that that has potential for me.
But for somebody else and I dothink it would be pretty, damn
funny because you, because I'mjust thinking about, if you two
really were doing that for me, Iwould be out on a date with
somebody and the whole timegoing I'm gonna kill them.
What in God's name did theythink?
Did they even talk to thisperson?
You know what about me says Iwould like that you know.
(19:10):
So it, it could be a reallygood psychological sort of uh,
experiment, yeah, yeah.
A test group groups A and B.
Somebody take a note?
A test group groups A and B.
Somebody take a note?
There you go.
I think we should pitch theidea I think you already have,
and somebody's going to listento us, I'm sure, and it's going
(19:31):
to probably be next season.
We'll be out there, all right.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Yeah, we need some quick legal language here.
All ideas generated here on theThree Cocktails In podcast are
solely the property of theowners of Three Cocktails In.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Exactly, I know.
You know what could we, whatcould we pitch?
You know that has to do withcooking.
I've got one I tried to pitch.
You know that has to do withI've got one.
I tried to do you good.
Go, because mine are, mine arejust half ideas.
They're not full ideas.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
Go ahead so this one came out of a conversation that
I had with my sister, um, andfor whatever reason, we were
probably bitching about groceryshopping or something and
talking about.
You know, sharing recipes andstuff as we do are dead because
neither one of us have kids inthe house anymore, so evidently
we don't cook anymore.
But I think that there'd be anexcellent cooking show where one
(20:36):
celebrity chef has to come intoyour kitchen on any random day.
They don't know where they'regoing.
They have like five houses onthe block.
They get to pick one of thefive.
They cannot bring their owntools, their own spices or any
ingredients.
They have to come in and make adinner for five or for four out
(21:00):
of solely using the equipment,the pots and pans, the
seasonings and the ingredientsfound in this home.
That is what I want to see.
I don't want to have to go outand buy 2 million different
spices to make some dish.
Come in my house and show mewhat I can make with what I have
(21:23):
here yeah, I like it.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
I think that's a good one.
I like it.
I like it.
Yeah, mine were.
Mine weren't that well thoughtout?
Something to do with, you know,people coming in and like
cleaning out my refrigerator andtrying to pick out all the
stuff that's expired.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
I have three daughters who would come over
and gladly do that, because itseems like they do that to me
every time they come over and ifit is like a day past the date
on it, they throw it out date onit.
Speaker 4 (22:05):
they throw it out.
Do you, do you guys?
Well, maybe we, maybe we have ataste test and you have to
taste it and decide if it'sexpired or not.
Maybe that's it, Cause I don'tthink some stuff expires.
Speaker 5 (22:12):
That's what I was going to ask Doesn't it say best
if used by?
It doesn't say don't use itafter this date or you're going
to get food poisoning right.
Just says best buy yeah that'snot a hard date.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
Yeah no, especially spices and some condiments and
those things.
Speaker 5 (22:34):
I don't think they really expire I think when you
open a thing of spices and youcan't smell, it doesn't like
knock you off your feet withsmell throw that one out, yeah
yeah, yeah, cream of tartar,baking soda, baking powder,
throw them out.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
Pretty much everything else, yeah yeah, yeah
, I would think you could use it.
Oh funny, what else?
What other silly ideas do wehave Anything good?
Speaking of the Kardashians,there would be more interesting
(23:19):
people that I could think of tofollow around and have a camera
in their face all the time, likeour favorites.
Wouldn't it be hilarious tofollow Melissa McCarthy around
day after day after day A?
Speaker 3 (23:32):
day in the life.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
I would like to see a video of their, like breakfast
or dinner every day with she andher husband who is also
hysterical and their two kids,like yeah, you know, I don't
need really you know, and ofcourse they wouldn't do it, but
yes, I totally agree that thatwould be good, right now, yeah,
see what they do all day.
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Of course they wouldn't do it, but yes, I
totally agree that that would begood, I know.
Yeah, see what they do all day.
What if it would ruin the magicthough?
Could she do anything?
You mean like we'd like her.
We'd like her just based on heracting, and that if we saw her
normal day, we would say meh.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
I wonder if she would feel like she had to be funny,
or if she could truly, you know,knowing that their camera's
there, could she just be herself.
Some people can't, some peoplein that you know, especially
comedians um, they, they can'tdo it um, okay, I've got a.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
I've got a guilty pleasure that I've got to admit
to everybody about these realitysituations and I'm going to
blame the Reels on Instagram andnow, of course, my feed is
flooded Karen cam.
It's the, these people whorecord situations where a Karen
(25:01):
goes off and and they're weirdneighbors and they're seemingly
normal people that just losetheir shit about stupid stuff
and the dash cam or the cop camwhen they're chasing down.
And I mean, I am a white womanof a certain age and I hate to
(25:29):
say it, but there are a lot ofstupid white women of a certain
age that really are giving allof us a bad name.
Oh, but I can't help watchingthem.
There's just something trainwreckish about it, without being
violent and without being youknow, yeah, it's just they're
just like screaming at somebodyover something stupid.
It's like you know, when yourkids were little and they were
(25:50):
toddlers and they pitched a fitabout something and you couldn't
help but laugh, or, you know,try not to laugh at them while
it was going on, but theirreaction is so out of proportion
to what is happening that itgets comical.
Yeah, that's what I feel aboutthese.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
There are so many that I question that they're
even real, you know.
So maybe some are and somearen't, I don't know.
But oh my gosh, are people nuts?
Speaker 5 (26:21):
yeah, yeah, I get it.
You know, you know, you guys, Ihate awkward, I really hate
awkward.
I can't watch awkward on TV.
Um I anything that is supercringe worthy.
I got to leave the room.
So I think it's just that theseare 30 second clips, that I can
(26:43):
watch them and then move on,but they do make me laugh and
for that I am thankful and forthat I am thankful Bill and I
were talking about this when wewere on vacation.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
So I am fascinated with kind of the behind the
scenes on things.
I've always wanted to just sitin a big restaurant kitchen and
just watch how things happen,and so we were at this all
inclusive and I'm I just thinkit's.
It's amazing how these, thesethings, these experiences, run.
How do they create that muchfood, how do they create a
(27:28):
process around seven differentrestaurants and service and
entertainers and all of thesethings.
I would love and this is more adocumentary than reality tv but
you could blend the two.
You could.
You could find an interestingway to blend the two, but I
would love to see how does ithappen?
Speaker 5 (27:48):
it's almost not watch .
Bear the bear, no, yeah, thebear that yeah, you find it that
needs to go to the top of yourlist.
All right, because that isexactly what you love.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Yes, it is how crazy.
Speaker 5 (28:09):
And yeah, you know trying to source food and one
guy gets locked in the freezer.
Is it real, though, or is it?
Speaker 3 (28:19):
fiction no, no, but it knows.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
So that would be interesting.
It's really good and actually Isaw a casting that they were
actually looking for real peopleto be part of the cast.
It's set in Chicago, so I thinkit's pretty, pretty accurate,
would be my assumption.
Speaker 4 (28:42):
Okay, I would say yeah, yeah, yep, it's good, you
need to watch it.
So people may not know this,but kitty likes to watch people
fall down.
Yes, she does.
So the funny is yes, she likesto see people fall down, so she
(29:07):
we.
That's what we do.
We send her reels of people.
Did you like you?
Speaker 5 (29:11):
like the one where the dad laid down on the bed and
the kid flipped up and hit thewall.
Oh my God, that was the bestSlap.
Speaker 4 (29:21):
I know they are funny .
I don't know what we couldpitch to just have that.
Do you remember?
Did you ever see Jackass?
Do you know what I'm talkingabout this?
Speaker 5 (29:33):
show.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
You know that I watched about two minutes of it
and had to turn it off right,yeah, it's, it's bad, but
something along those lineswhere you know you're yeah, you
know watching for people to tripand fall down I don't like
watching things like punked,where they set somebody up to do
(29:55):
like really that's too muchyeah.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, if you're doing it toyourself, you know, like Jackass
did, that's one thing, but yeah, punk'd where.
I mean that's got to be totallyembarrassing that you're
falling for, yeah, some of thestuff they you know some of the
(30:18):
stuff.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
Here's another one that I thought was an
interesting premise, butexecution was poor and that was
undercover boss.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
Oh yeah, why did they have to wear like a dorky
mustache?
I don't think it was everbelievable.
No, it was never believable, Idon't think it was ever
believable?
Speaker 4 (30:36):
no, it was never believable.
I don't think so either.
I just think of, I just thinkof some, you know, not even like
my direct boss, but I know whatthe high up you know, you know
owners and ceos and whateverwhat they look like.
I don't think you coulddisguise them and bring them in
where I wouldn't say, yeah, youknow what I mean.
(30:56):
Yeah, it never seemed verybelievable Good premise, poor
execution.
Yeah, yeah, I think so.
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
I'd love to know what other reality thoughts other
people.
What are they watching?
What are you watching?
Yeah, what should we give a try, knowing that kitty likes to
watch people fall?
I, like a good cop, cam stacy'slooking for somebody to come
and eat food that could berotten yes, it could be rotten,
(31:27):
you know, and that was thepremise of early survivor.
Speaker 4 (31:31):
They would have them eat bugs and worms and gross
stuff.
I don't think they have to dothat challenge anymore.
Speaker 5 (31:40):
Well, we didn't even talk about naked and afraid.
Okay, that is one that I wantto talk about.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Why, why, why does anybody have to be naked?
Speaker 4 (31:52):
It's like cold.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
You can't be hoody and afraid wax and afraid it
just doesn't have that ring toit no, it doesn't, and it's
funny that you know they, youknow um, fuzzed out.
Speaker 4 (32:09):
You know some of the nakedness.
I mean, I mean it's naked andthey're on there naked, so why
do we have to fuzz it out?
Speaker 5 (32:17):
I always thought that was a funny part it could be
swimsuit and afraid, you know,bikini or whatever you get.
You get to pick your swimsuitand that's and afraid yeah,
sketchchy and afraid.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Which, by the way, in a future episode we're going to
be talking about the Oscars.
