Description

Jessica Liese is here to talk about a brand-new, brand-content competition reality show from Hulu -- Exposure, in which professional photographers compete in irrelevant-to-their-strengths "influencer" challenges while rookie hosts Cole Walliser and Cat Jimenez make terrible photo puns. The problem isn't so much the Samsung-fluffing; it's that the show isn't process-y enough, isn't transparent about how the challenges work, and isn't made by the same people who make Bake Off and could figure out how to turn an hour-long commercial for phone cameras into something informative with clear stakes. We were relieved to FOCUS (...sorry) on other topics in Around The Dial, including MAFS: Unmatchables, a ranking of MAFS: Mothership couples, Offspring, Top Chef, and 9-1-1: Lone Star. Listener Michaela pitched an un-Harmon-ious episode of Community for the Nonac before boats won, SNL lost, and we got bookish for Game Time. Take a break from dyeing your brows and hit play on an all-new Extra Hot Great.Show TopicsExposureATD: Married At First Sight: UnmatchablesATD: MAFS: Original FlavorATD: OffspringATD: Top Chef: PortlandATD: 9-1-1: Lone StarThe Canon: Community S04.E03: Conventions of Space and TimeWinner and Loser of the WeekGame Time: Books We've WatchedShow NotesFollow Jessica Liese on TwitterListen to Jessica's Fear The Walking Dead podcastAnd to her Tough As Nails pod on the Rob Has A Podcast networkTara's Unmatchables review at PrimetimerTara talks Mortal Kombat on the SlashfilmcastSarah's true-crime rec newsletter, Best EvidencePhoto: Christian / UnsplashDiscussionTweet at us @ExtraHotPodcast on TwitterWe are @ExtraHotGreat on InstagramSupport EHG on PatreonThe EHG gang have been recording this podcast for almost a decade now. In podcasting terms, that makes us positively Methuselahian. Since the start of EHG, our listeners have asked if we had a tip jar or donation system and we'd look at each other and say surely that is a joke, people don't pay other people to do podcasts. We'd email them back "Ha ha ha, good one, Chet" and go about our business. Now we are told this is a real thing that real nice people do. Value for value? In today's topsy turvy world? It's madness but that good kind of madness, like when you wake up at 3:15am and clean your house. Or something. In all seriousness, we are humbled by your continued prodding to get a Patreon page up for EHG and here it is! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
