Looking for Tirathlon Families for Wife Swap on ABC

Who is up for the abuse?


Greetings ~

My name is Julia Jenkins and I am a casting producer for ABC families hit reality show 'Wife Swap.

We are currently casting for our fourth season and we are looking for FAMILIES THAT PARTICIPATE IN TRIATHLONS. This has been something we have wanted to feature for 3 years and we are very interested in finding that GREAT family!

Families that appear on the show receive $20,000 as a thank you. And if you refer a family that appears on the show you would receive $1000.

If you are unfamiliar with the show, Wife Swap is a fascinating story of what happens when two married couples see themselves and their spouses in a whole new light. Time Magazine calls Wife Swap “a riveting examination of family values.” The New York Post says, “It should be called ‘Life Swap’ because it’s not just the wives who learn something here. It’s the families.”

The premise of Wife Swap is simple: for seven days, two wives from two different families with very different values exchange husbands, children and lives (but not bedrooms) to discover what it’s like to live a different woman’s life.

Here at ‘Wife Swap’ we look for a two-parent home with at least one child between the ages of 6 and 17 living at home fulltime.

If you are interested, please email me and tell me a little about your family and then I will be in touch. Or if you would like to refer a family, please email me their contact information and I will be in touch.

Thanks!

Now, let me think for a minute here. Who do I really, really despise on Slowtwitch that has a family …

I nominate Mequonman.

$20K?? Anyone want to pretend to be my husband for a week?

How about I swap you my wife for the $20,000 and we just call it even?

this could be interesting.

the OCD, affluent tri family swapped swapped with .

i admit, i’d watch it if it ever airs!

OK, but I want at least 15% of the cut! :wink:

I second that nomination.

I’ve watched it and it should be renamed Wife Swap Freak Show because they pick the craziest people you’ve ever seen. Unless you’re mentally unstable or somehow defective, you have no shot at making it on this show.

Now they could really make it interesting by grabbing a family that is about 8 weeks out from an Ironman :slight_smile:

Eight weeks or during taper? With the pissiness index off the chart, an Ironman triathlete in taper may be even more fun to watch…

As the “wife” being swapped, you’d probably have to spend a week with a bunch of morbidly obese couch potatoes while mrs jabba the hutt educated your daughter in the joys of a proper american diet…

You got a kid we can borrow?

I always wondered what they gave the families to do the swap. Jammajin, if you are on the forum today, this has you written ALL OVER IT!

hmmmm, $20,000 could buy two or three nice bikes…too bad my dh is going to Korea and I’ll be a single mom next year :wink: can you imagine the family they would trade you into though…uggghhhh, it might actually not be worth it…

OK, but I want at least 15% of the cut! :wink:

I’ll give you 25% if you do the dishes.

Yeah- the infamous Snackie Chan! She’s cute (looks like me), advanced reader, apparently very good at bowling and speaking Mandarin, can rock 10 Little Indians on the piano, but her real talent is in comedy.

hmm, I wonder if you have to be married. i’d do it for the 20K alone. better call the BF and see if he’s ready to whip out that rock!

If not, Katy, i’d be your “girlfiiend”, “life-partner” whatever for the cash :slight_smile:

Spending time around the morbidly obese could really boost my self image. My kid can hold her own when it comes to eating.

Well my wife is expecting our 11th in August. The other ten are ages 1-17. You think they can handle that???
$20k! I could get a new bike (or 5)

If not, Katy, i’d be your “girlfiiend”, “life-partner” whatever for the cash :slight_smile:

I live in SF, they would totally buy it!
