CATCH UP: Our thoughts on Tyra Banks, the Top Model doco + the modelling industry

We both watched the new Netflix documentary series 'Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model' and we have thoughts. We talk through what we remember of the original TV show and what it taught us as teenagers about what it meant to be a model and how that matched our experience working as models in NYC (Steph) and Europe (Laura). We also discuss the similarities between ANTM and reality TV these days and the lengths that some contestants will go to for fame. 

Plus! Guess which clothing brand slid into Steph’s DMs 👀 And what is the brown stain on Laura’s top this week!?

P.S We accidentally got a bit swear-y in this episode so best not to listen to this episode with kids around.
