Description

Provo, Utah is widely known for its hyper-earnest dating culture. What happens when you bring that to reality TV? We talk to a 2nd season winner of Provo's Most Eligible, Scott Anderson, about his experience on the show and the questions he’s haunted by years down the road. What motivates people to go on reality shows? What is it like trying to grow close to someone on camera? Towards the end, we discuss how men and women tend to approach “singleness” differently. Why does it seem like women are so much more willing to talk about it? Why do some people treat it as an ailment to recover from, and others as a situation to learn to thrive in? Hats off to Scott for the unusual candor he brought to the conversation.
