In this bonus recap for patrons, Carrie and Annemarie journey to 2015 for the Celebrity Wife Swap/Bachelor crossover starring the Mesnick and Lowe families. They discuss how these two Bachelor marriages stack up against each other, Molly's determination to improve Catherine's stagnant life in Dallas, and whether there's any way Sean can fit two enormous dogs in his tiny Porsche. Plus, bonus breaking news coverage, as we investigate the reality television return of one of middle era Bachelor's greatest stars: Brad Womack's LA Therapist, Jamie Green. This Celebrity Wife Swap episode is available on Hulu if you want to watch with us!

Due to the chaos of January 2025, we're unfortunately delaying Aaron Buerge's season until March 3rd. We're sorry! Please instead enjoy this unlocked Patreon episode, our recap of Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire, which we think is good supplemental listening with Alex and Aaron's seasons.

In this bonus episode for patrons, before they go back to to The Bachelor's 2002 beginnings in the new year, Carrie and Annemarie swing by Y2K, when reality tv as we know it was just being born and a producer named Mike Fleiss took his first stab at televising romance only to have everything (except the ratings) blow up in his face. They discuss how Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire led Fleiss to create The Bachelor, the franchise's enduring relationships with both pageants and restraining orders, and what they knew about presidential politics in middle school.
