This week on Rich Text we dive into the finale of Matt James season of “The Bachelor.” As you can imagine, we had *a lot* of thoughts on the bleak conclusion of a season that was meant to signal historic change for the franchise.

After you listen, check out our essay about the finale and After The Final Rose special on Cosmopolitan.com!

We’re trying something new today! A bonus audio chat.

On this “episode,” we discuss some of the very tepid Women Tell All drama that we didn’t get to talk about on our podcast. We also open our chat with a conversation about Chris Harrison’s Thursday morning appearance on “Good Morning America,” in which he told Michael Strahan that he did not “speak from the heart” in his interview with Rachel Lindsay. Strahan didn’t seem to particularly buy it, and honestly, neither did we.

You can watch the interview here:

As we said, this is a new format for us — one that we are hoping to repeat for newsletter subscribers — so please let us know if you like it, and if there are other things you’d want to hear us chat about!
