I Hate Green Beans with Lincee Ray

In a time of social distancing, my roommate Lara and I came up with some suggestions for those of you who can no longer go to work, school, sporting events, or live entertainment. We even threw in some alternate rodeo and Bachelor watching options just to be safe.

Enjoy!

EPISODE NOTES:

I wrote a post about some book suggestions from IHGB readers. You remember books, right? Those square things made of pages that have words on them? Reading is fun.

For when you miss the rodeo:
Yellowstone
The Longest Ride
Urban Cowboy
– You can also click HERE to read about the lessons I learned from watching Urban Cowboy. For example, a bottle of Lone Star beer can fit in the back pocket of a pair of Wrangler jeans.

For when you can’t go to school:
High School Musical
Never Been Kissed (one of the top screen kisses of all time)
Saved by the Bell (I’M SO EXCITED…)
Here’s a link to our favorite t-shirt girl KT Designs!

For when you need your Bachelor fix:
To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before
Love Is Blind (#blessit)
It’s a Love Story

For when you can’t go into work:
The Office
– Best TV Kiss
– Best YES Moment
9 to 5
The Devil Wears Prada (YAY EMILY BLUNT!)

For when you can’t actually participate in sports:
Friday Night Lights
Cheer
Jerry Maguire

For when you can’t go see live entertainment:
Miss Americana
James Corden Carpool Karaoke
James Corden’s Opening of the 2016 Tony Awards
Frozen 2

Well season 24 of The Bachelor has come to a close and Peter the Pilot found love, proposed to it, said JUST KIDDING, and waited for Chris Harrison to go fetch the real woman of his dreams so he could be friends with her for a while before deciding if he can break his mother’s heart by marrying this woman.

Some Guy in Austin and I break down both nights of the finale, including a certain woman’s gumption, a certain woman’s will power, and a certain box fully dedicated to a certain woman’s facial expressions. 

Oh Barb…

Women Tell All is a strange phenomenon of a show. One might surmise that a DVR which touts 120-minuets of ladies sharing all the things is television just begging to be watched. One might be wrong. 

The good news is that the producers set the bar really high with a theatrical rose ceremony worthy of our time. Is Madison going to join her fellow contestants at the Home Depot pillar? Or will she traipse off into the shire looking for lords and rings? 

And then there’s the announcement of our new bachelorette and the rumbling of “who’s that girl?” that shook the inter webs. Allow me to help you out:

The year was 2014. It was a simpler time back then. Coldplay and Goop made a conscious decision to uncouple. We finally learned how that guy met those kids’ mother. Adele Dazeem killed it at the Golden Globes singing “Let It Go.” And Clare Crawley crossed a freshly sprayed asphalt driveway as she walked toward bachelor Juan Pablo in a darling hot pink party dress.

Gather that raccoons, ABC Intern. We’re in for a wild ride. And I couldn’t be more excited.

First off, I’d like to make a correction. During Moments with Mama, which is at the very very end of all my bachelor podcasts, Mother on more than one occasion borrows the term Fantasy Land. Using contest clues she either means the fantasy suite date or the actual fantasy suite. At one point we get a Fantasy Island.

I feel it’s necessary to disclaim that this recap is in no way affiliated with the Disney corporation or Ricardo Montalbán. It was past her bedtime and I think we should all agree just to roll with the flow.

Like Hannah Ann seems to be doing. And Victoria. 

Madison? Not so much.

Some Guy in Austin and I break down the conversations, the pauses, the tears, the voice infliction, the “likes” and all the idiosyncrasies of the episode. 

Thank you for, like, joining us each week. It’s, like, our pleasure to like, bring you all of the, like, details of the like show. We like, love doing it. 

It’s like super impore-ant y’all know that.

Some Guy talks about the new “hit” show Flirty Dancing on FOX. I’d never heard of it. But now that I have, I’m a happy camper.

It’s home town dates and you know what that means!

Drama.
Weird family quirks. 
Mothers crying as if their child is returning from war. 
Plates of food, yet no one eats. 
The rolling of eyes.
The dropping of L-bombs.

And women with blurry faces who feel it is their need to set the record straight when they happen upon their ex-boyfriend dancing around with a notorious home wrecker.

Isn’t it the most wonderful time of the year?

Not a whole heck of a lot happened during last night’s episode other than Natasha finally getting a one-on-one, Kelley stepping into annoying villain territory, and Peter finally getting his Band-Aid off his head wound.

But that doesn’t stop Some Guy in Austin and I from discussing Peter’s final four. We dive deep and right before my VERY POPULAR “Moment with Mama” segment, we go off the rails on a tangent that involves a “concert” at a Fingers Furniture store here in Houston by a guy affectionately known on the IHGB website as He Who Must Not Be Named. 

I realized after editing that we never mentioned the artists’ name. I’d like for you to know that it was on purpose and I don’t intend on mentioning it now, either. 

In fact, I’m pretty proud that we’ve kept this up an entire decade. 

But you can read about that night below! Enjoy!

Well, it’s week 5 of Peter the Pilot’s journey to find love and it is the length of the Super Bowl. Some Guy in Austin and I discuss the now infamous Cosmo date with Victoria F., Kelsey’s emotional health, and whether or not Peter contracted some sort of jungle disease in his head wound when he made out with Sydney under a waterfall.

I’ve watched enough Grey’s Anatomy to know that answer is yes.

Peter hits his head on a golf cart. And breaks his face.

Well, it’s week 4 of Peter the Pilot’s journey to find love and it is a doozy.  Some Guy in Austin and I discuss the sheer coincidence that Victoria F’s former flame, country music star Chase Rice, just HAPPENED to be on her one-on-one date in a Cleveland-adjacent amusement park. What are the odds?

Then we insert ourselves into the mutinous bandwagon, tossing up a few AMENS, as we debate how Peter should have handled Alayah’s return to the harem. Spoiler: He didn’t handle it well.

Fasten your seatbelts. Your inflight entertainment is brought to you by the cello guy in front of the Cleveland courthouse!

Admit it. You thought he was another ex-boyfriend, right?

Good news! Peter the Pilot is in love with twelve women. Isn’t that fabulous? Typically Some Guy in Austin and I don’t have the “can you be in love with multiple women at the same time” conversation in week 3, but Peter is not your typical guy. Enjoy!
