BachelorClues and PaceCase return from a double-recap marathon to break down a packed news cycle: Ashley Iaconnetti’s historic jump to The Real Housewives of Rhode Island, the stacked cast and premiere date for Traitors US Season 4, Bachelorette Taylor Frankie Paul’s explosive “baby daddy” call-out during filming, Becca Kufrin and Thomas Jacobs’ adorable baby #2 announcement, and Hannah Brown’s reveal of her third romance novel. The Pit also crowns its latest parasocial champions—including TFP’s four-part Instagram takeover from inside production—and delivers three unhinged Screams from the Pit, featuring parasocial collisions, Spirit Halloween prophecies, and the hosts’ surreal appearance on Almost Famous.
