The Bachelor first premiered on March 25, 2002. Yes, that’s correct, 2002. So even though this has nothing to do with high school, the show came to life twenty years ago and has spawned some of television’s most trainwreck shows.

This week on the show host Julia Washington and guest Natalie Kotona (host of To All the Men I've Tolerated Before podcast) discuss Natalie's break up with the Bachelor franchise.

But, when Kelly meets Harrison's children for the first time, their allegiance to their mother is palpable. Isabel tries to win the children over but fails repeatedly. But the big secret, likely fueling every decision Jackie makes, is that she is terminally ill, thus adding an additional layer of grief to the entire ordeal.
