Latest Episodes

’I Wanna Marry Harry’ makes its prime time debut. Things do not go as planned. Scott begins to question what we really mean when we call something “reality” TV?

As filming wraps, the girls fly back home, and the producers have a surprise waiting for them when they land. As surprises go, this isn’t exactly a great one.

Who is Matt Hicks? A questionable Prince Harry lookalike… but also the man who might be able to tell us what was really going on behind-the-scenes. All we need to do now is find him.

  • Good pod

    I love listening to Avril Lavigne and I was shocked when my mom told me she was replaced. I love this podcast and me and my friend Lyra listen all the time. We both love her songs and wonder, "what happened to Avril?" and we finally found this pod. Bye! P. S. Please give me (Maddox-she-they) and my friend (Lyra-they-them) a shoutout if possible. We are both nine years old. Bye bye!

  • Boring

    Annoying accent and speech impediment. Only listened to the first one. The whole thing could have been done in 30 minutes. So boring.

  • Painfully annoying

    I loved kid nation but this new Avril season is so obnoxious it’s painful to listen to. I did my best to get through the second episode but ended up giving up. This one is a big miss.
