    “You want to be on top?” Hannah Kat Jones was — and now she’s here to share her story.


    Hannah competed on Cycle 16 of America’s Next Top Model, making it all the way to the Top 3. During her time on the show, she modeled in trash, wore bees on her head, and was even set on fire — all in the name of reality television.


    In this episode, Hannah reflects on what it was truly like competing on America’s Next Top Model — the highs, the lows, and the moments that still feel unbelievable. She shares her thoughts on the new Netflix documentary, Tyra Banks, the Jays, and how she views the show today.

    Being on three major reality shows isn’t easy — but if anyone can do it, it’s Kyland Young. In this episode, Kyland looks back on his time on Big Brother, including what it was like being part of one of the most iconic alliances in reality TV history: The Cookout.

    Then we dive deep into his experience on The Challenge — from living in the house and navigating the social politics, to competing in grueling finals, managing alcohol limits, and surviving the, rather boring, filming schedule. 

    And of course, we get into the tea! Kyland shares his thoughts on overrated challengers, aspects of the show he’d change, his dream competitors to face off against, and so much more.
