We’re back with a roundup of all the latest reality dating TV news, starting with the announcement of our new Golden Bachelor! We also discuss the sad news about former Golden Gerry’s cancer diagnosis. Meanwhile, Bachelor in Paradise is shaking things up with a brand-new bartender and a fresh location—we’ve got all the details. Plus, Kelley Flanagan and Peter Weber were spotted together again, and Caila Quinn’s husband is caught up in a cheating scandal that started on Reddit.  

Over in the Love Is Blind universe, we’ve entered full Wife Swap territory with Ben and Monica now officially dating and we speculate on when we’ll get the next season.

We also discuss the dating rumors between Love Undercover’’s Lloyd Jones and Love Island UK’’s Ella Thomas and catch up on where theLove Island All Stars couples have landed post-show. And we talk about the details of Whitney and Lochan’s recent breakup. Finally in the Love Island universe, Love Island USA is expanding the franchise with Love Island: Beyond the Villa, and we’re breaking down everything we know so far.  

And finally, we share our initial thoughts on Netflix’s newest dating experiment Pop the Balloon, which might just be the messiest show they’ve ever dropped.

We’re giving all of our hottest takes on the latest Bachelor Nation buzz, starting with Juliana outing both her and Grant’s political leanings—and who else in the franchise seems to be on the same page. We break down Juliana finally watching the *Bachelor* finale and choosing to come for Litia instead of Grant (??), and share our thoughts on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s recent comments about her breakup with Jason Tartick, plus the rumors swirling about who he’s dating now.  

We also get into Zac Clark’s powerful work in addiction recovery, why we’re rooting so hard for Katie Thurston as she navigates a stage 4 cancer diagnosis, Rachael Kirkconnell’s surprising new friend group. Brendan and Serene’s soft-launch into coupledom, and a quick update on Jenn Tran’s life lately.

Plus, a few updates from the latest Temptation Island season, and as always, a grab bag of random topics: our feelings about Alex Cooper, whether people *actually* don’t know who Monica Lewinsky is anymore, what’s up with those Obama divorce rumors, and a passionate discussion about Asian noodle soups as a love language.

We somehow made it through this excessively long season of Temptation Island, and we’re still struggling to decide which of these men is actually the worst. The complete lack of accountability from every single one was a lot, to say the least. We catch up on where the couples are now and discuss if  the show will come back for another season.  

And while we wait for the new seasons of Love Island USA, Love Island UK, and Bachelor in Paradise, we’ve got our eyes on two new reality dating shows that we’re definitely going to try. Stay tuned for our first impressions and all the inevitable drama!

We kick things off with The Bachelor finale, where Grant’s indecisiveness and immaturity stood in stark contrast to Litia’s incredible poise and maturity. Will Grant and Juliana actually make it, or are we already bracing for a breakup announcement?  

Then, it’s time for After the Final Rose.  We break down the audience reactions, the eyebrow-raising new Bachelor in Paradise twist, and our concerns about the Goldens on the beach (hot temps and creepy older men are a recipe for disaster). Plus, we’re already in a fight with one Paradise cast member, and we discuss the best post-season glow-up. And of course, we make our picks for who we think should be the next Bachelorette.  

Finally, we dive into Temptation Island, where it took the men approximately two seconds to become absolute trash and even less time to avoid accountability. Meanwhile, the women are dodging all physical connections in the villa, and we’re left wondering — is this show really a reflection of modern dating in America? Because if so, we are seriously concerned.

The Bachelor fantasy suite dates are here, and we’ve got thoughts. Grant’s endless platitudes and reluctance to go deeper made for a boring episode, but we can’t stop wondering: did he sleep with anyone in the fantasy suites? Plus, he dropped the L-bomb and instantly regretted it, and poor Zoe got totally screwed with that silent yoga date. We also chat about what will ultimately get in the way of Grant and Litia’s relationship, the glaring lack of real love connections, and whether Grant will actually end up with anyone. And now that we’re almost at the finish line, how do we feel about Grant as The Bachelor this season? Spoiler: it’s time to cast some actual adults on this show.  

Next, we check in on Temptation Island — the show that’s trying *really* hard to convince us it’s serious while still being totally ridiculous. Somehow, Mark Wahlberg (no, not that one) shocked us all by offering genuinely solid advice to the contestants. We break down our predictions for which couples will survive and which are destined to crash and burn. Also, we can’t unsee the fact that Tyler is giving us major Tom Sandoval 2.0 vibes.

The Love Is Blind finale and reunion are here! We break down Nick and Vanessa finally stepping up as hosts, the heartbreaking breakdown of Joey and Monica’s relationship, and the absolute chaos of Madison’s armpit receipts. We talk about why Sara should have said no to Ben in the pods, especially after his nonstop flip-flopping on values. Plus, we unpack Daniel’s bizarre tattoo of Taylor, Devin somehow being even more immature than we thought, and the show’s silence on the serious allegations against Alex. And, of course, we can’t ignore the Meg/Mason/Madison mess, our thoughts on AD and Ollie’s engagement, and the excitement of next season happening on Indra’s home turf.

Then, we dive into The Bachelor: Women Tell All—starting with Grant’s bizarre social media post choice that has us questioning everything. We get into Carolina’s audacious display and lack of accountability, the women we liked most this season, and who we think is heading to Paradise (thankfully, the show is coming back!). Plus, Dina leaning into her lawyer role and keeping her family out of hometowns might have been the smartest move all season.

Finally, we wrap up with The Traitors finale, reunion, and the 92nd Y live event—an incredibly satisfying end to the season. We cheer for Danielle’s dramatic exit, swoon over Dylan, and sip on the behind-the-scenes tea Delores spilled about her feud with Danielle. Ivar exposed the actual production schedules, Gabby Windey cemented herself as a reality TV icon, and we get into Dylan’s dreams for what’s next. And don’t worry—we’ve already got a list of upcoming shows we can’t wait to cover!

We kick things off with Love Is Blind—the mind-boggling social media reactions to the season, especially around political issues, and how Midwest passive-aggressiveness is quietly ruining every relationship. We break down Lauren and Dave’s trainwreck dynamic (why is she hanging on when he clearly never wanted to get married?), Sara trying to reconcile her values with Ben’s megachurch, and Devin needing his mom’s approval to sign a prenup. Plus, we’re still confusing people because everyone looks the same, wondering what the couples even talked about in the pods, and side-eyeing the wildly unequal bachelor/bachelorette parties. As for the couples? Joey and Monica seem destined for friendship, while Daniel and Taylor are the only ones we actually believe in.

Then, we dive into The Bachelor—why is the hometown episode always so boring, and how did Zoe make it this far without a one-on-one? We get into Mary’s predictions for the fantasy suites and finale, the shock of Juliana’s dad being a softy instead of a mafia boss, and the lingering question of whether Grant and Litia’s religious differences (and the looming fantasy suites) will be a dealbreaker. Despite the messy timeline, we break down why Grant is actually a great Bachelor and how the season’s short runtime is doing him—and the viewers—a disservice.

We kick things off with Love Is Blind! We break down Virginia and Devin’s connection (and those prenup/shoe budget issues), why the communal sock bin might actually destroy Monica and Joey, and how Joey ended up impressing us way more than expected. Plus, apologies to Daniel for thinking he was a creep, our deep hatred for Dave, and why we’re all just waiting for Lauren to break up with him. We also dig into Ben’s shady TikTok scandal and cross our fingers for a post-season couple swap.

Next, we dive into The Bachelor—how are we already at hometowns, and why does it feel like we barely know any of the women (and neither does Grant)? We unpack the shock of Dina and Zoe making it this far, Carolina’s ongoing cringe-fest, and Litia’s last-minute reveal about her religion. We’ll miss Alexe so much, but we’re already making predictions about the finale and speculating on the next Bachelorette (especially since ABC straight-up aired a casting call during the episode) and the next season of Bachelor in Paradise.

Finally, we wrap up with The Traitors—our ever-growing disdain for Danielle (and the recent dirt about her behavior in the house), the tweaks we’d make to improve the game, and who we’re rooting for to win it all.

We start with Love Is Blind Season 8—why does the entire cast look the same, and why did we spend so much time in the pods with people who didn’t even make it out together? Plus, we get into the tea about the guys’ bad behavior outside of the pods, our thoughts on the surprisingly big music budget, and our predictions for who will actually make it down the aisle.  

Then, we move on to The Bachelor, aka *The Carolina Show*. We break down Juliana’s slight exaggerations, our surprising defense of Carolina (even though we’re currently in the middle of an online fight with her), and why the season feels like it’s moving way too fast. Also, how did Dina and Grant end up having such a strong connection, and if *The Bachelorette* was happening, who would have gotten the lead?  

Over on Love Island All Stars, we discuss why we’re disappointed with the winners and spill some behind-the-scenes tea from both the season and its aftermath.  

Finally, we wrap up with a quick recap of our current thoughts on this season of The Traitors!

We start with the latest from Grant’s Bachelor season—will he and Litia be able to work past their religious differences, and who do we think will be his final two? We also break down Zoe’s complete lack of a sense of humor, Carolina’s brat behavior, and whether Grant secretly told Rose he was thinking about her during that dance with Carolina. Plus, we finally get some answers about Beverly’s sudden exit from the mansion, and we are so excited that Golden Gary’s back!

Then, we dive into the latest from Love Island All Stars—Curtis continues to be the absolute worst, but which couples actually like each other, and who’s just faking it for the cameras? We also debate whether Samie is a better match for Luca than Grace and if there’s more in Omar’s kisses with Tina than he’s letting on.

Finally, we wrap up with some major reality tv dating show gossip, including the latest rumors about The Bachelorette’s future, tea from Serena and Kordell’s recent press blitz, and why the men of Bachelor Nation are catching heat for their Super Bowl halftime show takes.
