Ep. 5 The Squid Game's Trey Plutnicki
In this electrifying episode of Reality Check with Heidi and Brad, listeners are treated to an exclusive chat with Trey, a contestant from the American version of Squid Game: The Challenge. Get ready for a rollercoaster ride of laughter, insights, and behind-the-scenes secrets as Trey spills the beans on everything from reality TV to his love for Hallmark Christmas movies.
First up on the agenda? Trey's podcast, "The Mistletoe Secret Podcast," and his undying passion for all things Hallmark – because who doesn't love a good holiday romance? From there, the conversation takes a deeper dive into Trey's competitive upbringing and the dynamics of competitiveness within families, shedding light on how it can both strengthen and strain relationships.
But the real magic happens when Trey and Brad swap stories about their reality TV journeys, from applying to dating shows to Trey's unforgettable experience on Let's Make a Deal. And of course, no conversation about Squid Game would be complete without a discussion of the nail-biting challenges, from the infamous Dalgona challenge to the heart-stopping Glass Bridge.
As the conversation unfolds, Trey shares his candid perspective on Ashley's decision in the Glass Bridge challenge and the intense paranoia created by the producers – not to mention the challenges of sleeping on the top bunk and the reality of not getting paid immediately after the show. But through it all, Trey's resilience shines through as he discusses his recovery from a lung collapse and his thriving career as an actor and dancer.
With plans for future marathons and a lively debate about pizza preferences, this episode is a must-listen for anyone in need of a good laugh – and a fascinating peek behind the curtain of reality TV. So grab your popcorn, settle in, and get ready to be entertained with Heidi, Brad, and Trey as your guides on this wild ride through the world of Squid Game and beyond.
