The Yellow Pages has launched 'The [Billboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dreamies-treats) Master' reality project in Israel. A visible-to-the-street, two-compartment living space is inhabited by Big Brother winner Eliraz Sadeh and Survivor winner Natan Bashevikin who compete with one another doing [assignments and tasks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asda-checkout-challenge).

As each challenge is completed, a divider is moved to increase the size of the winner's side of the habitat while decreasing the size of the loser's. The Billboard Master game goes on until one participant is literally squeezed out.
