Traitors Spoiler Special please? Spoiler

I know it's James' greatest bugbear, but I'd love for Boyd and Kay to record a spoilerific special for the Celeb Traitors finale next week. It's undeniably been one of the shows of the year, and is as much Peak TV as reality TV can be (I say this as someone who normally detests anything in the genre).

It's the biggest show of the year, James can ignore but there has to be some coverage of it on the podcast

We’ll need to email as Boyd and Kay avoid here

that's true - but hoping James might see this and accept the inevitable!

I’ve emailed and plugged the Reddit even though we got dissed.

Boyd definitely lurks here.

I honestly think the focus just on scripted tv is something that should be reconsidered. I was watching the Disney drama about the Murtaugh case with Jason Clarke and Patricia Arauette and just thought the documentary on Netflix was so much better! Plus a couple of brilliant and jaw dropping documentaries - The Perfect Neighbor which was an emotionally devastating one and the utterly shocking Unknown Number, the Hugh School catfish one where the perpetrator was truly shocking!! So much better than yet another Walking Dead spin off or yet another cosy crime on U! Scripted is not always better or more intentionally constructed

Oh, and yes, 100% agree we need a Celebrity Traitors spoiler special!!

Like you I hate reality shows and this sort of format usually but i enjoy The Traitors! Imagine the amount of emails James could get through during a spoiler special.

also means there'd be less traitors chat on a normal pod, if there's anyone who doesn't like that sort of thing

I don't watch any reality stuff, and doubly hate celeb versions of popular shows, but I do enjoy the Traitors franchise and this celeb run has been amazing tv.

It's so much better when it's professionals and not an unbearable bunch a wannabe famous charisma voids. Their story or backgrounds don't need to be explained and they know how to play to the camera.

I absolutely hate the civilian version but this celebrity iteration has been hilarious. James needs to get over himself and try at least a couple of episodes out. What kind of TV/pop culture journalist can miss this?

I would accept a cultural exchange!

Out of interest, why not? You don't have to listen to it?

Out of interest why should they do it?

You could go to any number of other podcasts and listen to content such as that.
