Trading spouses: Faculty edition

Producers of the Fox reality series are seeking academics to participate.

“Our show is about celebrating families from eclectic backgrounds,” explains Brooke Krinsky, a casting associate with the company. “One reason we’re going after higher education professionals is that they tend to lead amazing lives and do amazing things.” She says she could picture an archaeologist mom or dad taking families on new adventures that they could never imagine.

“We could have a dad who’s a science professor and a mom who manages a punk band,” gushes Krinsky. “It’s a fun experiment.”
