Can I Steal You For A Minute?

We’re full steam ahead with Joan’s season of The Golden Bachelorette, and loving every minute of it. First up, we celebrate Charles L, who continues to prove why he’s an icon of the season. Then we dive into the action: Mark is quietly turning up the heat, while Dan delivers a strong performance that’s hard to ignore. We also ask the question on everyone’s mind — why is Gil still here? And take some time to give a shoutout to the girl dads for melting our hearts once again, and, of course, to Bob for keeping it classy. We also take a trip down memory lane with some high school prom stories (and how Jonathan’s really pulled at our little heart strings) and talk about Joan and Chock’s noticeable comfort with each other at a Disney theme park.

Just over a week after Jenn’s dramatic Bachelorette finale, lots of drama has ensued in Bachelor Nation and we are here to discuss it all. First we discuss Devin’s disgusting “my side of the story” video, which revealed a ton of unnecessary and intimate details about Jenn and their relationship. We also chat about Maria’s video message addressing her thoughts on the end of the season. We also discuss recent drama between Kaitlyn Bristowe and Tayshia Adams. And, of course, with no current reality dating shows on the air right now, we have to give our initial thoughts on the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, and the upcoming Fall reality dating show schedule.

Whelp! We knew it. Devin is trash, and he proved it to all of America on the season finale of The Bachelorette. We talk about his ludicrous behavior during the season, at the finale, and afterwards on social media, the questionable decisions of the Bachelorette producers, and our hopes and dreams for Jenn's redemption on the upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars. We also discuss Bachelor Nation's wider reactions to the finale and what we’re looking forward to on Joan's upcoming season of The Golden Bachelorette.

We’re getting close to the end of Jenn’s season, and everything is falling apart? In this episode, we discuss Jenn’s final picks and why we feel she’s making a mistake. We talk about who we think wins, what we think is going on with them now (based on what we’ve seen on social media), why Jonathan and her still have something special, and how Jeremy literally “won” the Men Tell All. We also discuss the Love Is Blink UK reunion, including the breakup we didn’t see coming, the cast rumors we are obsessed with, and our overall thoughts on this season.

This week’s recap is fresh off of watching the show on Monday, and there is much to discuss. First and foremost, we talk about the exciting announcement of our new Bachelor, Grant! And then we get into one of the most satisfying episodes of all time, as we watch Sam M literally implode before our very eyes. We also discuss Marcus’s heartbreaking story, Jeremy’s surprise comeback (and why we now love him), who we think is the winner, and what we hope to see from Jenn at the end of the season and beyond.
