The speaker is discussing their experience watching an old reality dating show called "My Own" on MTV. The show was about helping people who are obsessed with celebrities find someone who looks and acts as much like the celebrity as possible. The main character, Nick, was looking for his own "Pink," a reference to the pop star Pink.
The show was set in an office building and featured a series of challenges for the contestants to win Nick's heart. These challenges included trivia questions about Pink, gymnastics, and singing a Pink song. The show ended with Nick choosing Desiree as his own Pink. The ending was described as lackluster, with the two walking off the stage together, but the speaker speculated that they might not have stayed together.
The speaker also mentioned that they were sponsored by Current, a banking app, and that they were giving away $500 to 10 people who used the code "danny" to sign up for Current.
