“Curse Of” is back for season two. This time, we’re doing a deep dive on Miss America. We’re talking about the pageant’s history, its impact on our larger culture, and of course, the scandals.   

Host Bridget Armstrong talks to former Miss Americas, whistleblowers, and pageant insiders. We found a messy legal battle that’s unfolding in real time. It’s a story the pageant really doesn’t want us to tell. It raises the question: what is Miss America so afraid of?
