Final Rose Tonight

In the "wise" words of Shanae, this has gone on way too far. Lisa and Susan agree! The Shanae drama has gone on way too long and she has taken it way too far for our "comfortability". Thanks to Sarah for the vocab lesson! Sadly, we were robbed of our 2:1 that was promised from the previews, but it was a nice break and opportunity to breathe.

Tune in to hear the latest Bachelor Nation headlines and a full recap of the episode. Continuing on his international love journey, Clayton enjoys two 1-on-1 dates (Pleasure Pier anyone?) and a hilarious group date alongside a super famous comedian we’ve never heard of. Additionally, ABC shows us previews of this week’s episode with scenes that never air and a contestant with a rose we never saw her receive. What in the name of Celine Dion is going on?? Sadly, the drama doesn’t end once they leave the country for Toronto.

It’s no surprise that every Canadian date includes some form of hockey and maple syrup but who knew Meryl Streep gets involved? Will Clayton heed Sierra's advice to “Not Be Stupid” or will he prove himself dumber than ever? 

Houston: We have lost some brain cells! Lisa and Susan are extra feisty this week as they rehash the latest headlines, the hilarious new parody "Bachelor, The Unauthorized Musical" and the latest episode of Shrimp-gate! After leaving LA to embark on the "worldwide international journey to find love" and leave the drama behind, Houston proves that a change in location cannot quell our evil villain or provide a fresh start. However, Clay-In and Rachel's date reminds us that we can still find joy in small and (obviously) staged moments.

Lisa and Susan are back with this week's bachelor nation headlines and an exciting recap of the latest episode of the Bachelor where we address all of your burning questions - Can Clayton speak to a woman without kissing her? Does Sarah wear (or own?) underwear? Can CPR be sexy? What happens when a bachelor gets overly excited while having intimate moments during group dates?  And…can Cassidy be sent home if she already has a rose, but more importantly, if she hasn’t even packed? Join us as we dish the dirt and, of course, complain about Shanae and all her shenae-nigans.

It’s drama overload this week on The Bachelor and Lisa and Susan recap it all for you just as the claws come out. Two villains emerge, one who hates children and has a guy on the side, and the other with no self awareness or sympathy for mental health issues. Both have an abundance of confidence. How is Clayton so oblivious? Is there such thing as too much drama?

The Bachelor is back!! Join Lisa and Susan as they dish the dirt on all the women, new host Jesse Palmer and a guy you most likely don’t remember, Clayton Echard, the newest Bachelor! It's premiere night and we discuss all the craziness from a former Olympian, a spray tanner (whatever that is), a 33 year old cougar and oodles of nurses. So sit back and relax, or grab your snake and jump in your toy car, as three women immediately exit, but lots and lots of very blond women remain. It’s going to be a great season!

In the final episode of the season, Lisa and Susan debate who will win Michelle’s heart. Will it be the overly expressive suitor with a heart of gold or the too cool to care Adonis with only one swim suit? The ladies break it down for you in their usual irreverent way and all of the important plot twists will be discussed. Will Michelle get to keep Brandon’s favorite sweatshirt after breaking his heart? Is Neil Lane still scouring the beach looking for the missing diamond ring? Should we have titled this episode “Nothing But Nayte?” One thing is for sure, it’s not over until the mariachi band plays!

Thank you to you, our listeners, for a fun season! Please note that we will be changing our podcast name FINAL ROSE TONIGHT. Be sure to follow us on Instagram at final_rose_tonight for the latest updates and we’ll see you in a couple weeks as we do it all again for our new Bachelor Clayton!!

It’s the week we’ve all been waiting for…Fantasy Suites! Join Lisa and Susan as they recap every exciting moment (except the parts they don’t show us!). Each of the final three men: Brandon, the cliché cowboy, Joe, her slice of home and Nayte, her obvious favorite, make the most of their special days with Michelle which include a mariachi band, proclamations of love and everyone’s favorite orange swim suit making an encore appearance. It all leads up to, possibly, the most shocking Rose Ceremony ever!

Lisa and Susan are thrilled to be joined this week by fellow baseball mom and Bachelorette enthusiast, Bridget, as they recap The Men Tell All. Many of their favorite guys, along with a few not-so-favorite villains, are back to rehash their “journeys” with Michelle. All of your burning Bachelorette questions will be discussed: Did Martin come on the show with a girlfriend? Is Jamie still delusional? Is Peter’s pizza actually edible? And most importantly, should Rodney join Bachelor in Paradise? (Spoiler alert!) YES, he should!!

Note: We had sound challenges this week so thank you for bearing with us! 

Lisa and Susan are joined this week by huge Bachelorette fan and longtime listener, Noah Taffel, who adds his insightful Gen Z perspective to the podcast. They discuss his take on Michelle and the guys along with his predictions for the end of the season as well as rehash the latest Bachelor Nation headlines and the always riveting hometown dates. Who’s falling for who? Who’s looking for houses on Lake Minnetonka? Who’s worried about running into Michelle grocery shopping? Strap on your neon orange swim suits…Fantasy Suites are just around the corner!

Join Lisa and Susan as they dish on all the latest Bachelor nation headlines, including the shocking (?) breakup of Tayshia and Zac, and a recap of this week's episode. Michelle's students put the guys through the wringer by planning dates that include an after hours museum visit, milking cows, a pizza and candy party and an embarrassing hot tub encounter, all while Michelle sifts through the manure to find her person. After one guy fixates on a miscommunication, he declares that a woman like that doesn’t deserve his time and Michelle announces her historic final four.
