The Bachelor PhD

Co-host Caitlin is on vacation this week, leaving just Co-host Craig and Co-host Iciar to deconstruct this week’s episode. True to past behavior, they spend the first good chunk of the podcast talking about tangential things such as YIMBY culture (sorry, Toronto), Gentrification (sorry, Hvar), and suburban sprawl (sorry, Houston). Once we get back on […]

Who doesn’t like getting roasted? Well, probably no one, but in this date we’re going to do it anyways. Well, not really, as the roasts didn’t transpire to much, and then it’s off to a 2-on-1 date! We know it confusing, hit the play button to join us as we figure it all out.

Here we are back at Shrimpgate though we do a pretty good job on this podcast episode of not letting shrimp be the main focus of our conversation. So, in addition to shrimp we talk about whether the actual villain is Elizabeth, ponder what is up Rachel’s whispering, try to figure out why Clayton doesn’t […]

In this podcast episode we continue our trend of bringing up obscure books/plays that our Co-host Craig had to read in high school. We also discuss the group date AA meeting, how they don’t know how to dress Clayton, Co-host Iciar’s breakdown of the Downtown Los Angeles scenes, Co-host Caitlin’s dissection of contestant behavior, and […]

In this episode a couple of villains emerge, one who thinks she’s actually the front-runner, and another who thinks mental health is something to joke around about. We discuss this along with And Just Like That…, more about Jesse Palmer as the host, whether we should watch the World Cup and Olympics, and and a […]

What can we say, there was a blur of gold sequin dresses to start Clayton’s journey as the Bachelor. We start off this podcast episode, though, discussing the Tournament of Roses Parade, which Co-host Iciar attended and saw Jessie and Clayton up close. Then we go into Clayton as the lead before jumping into trying […]

At the end of After the Final Rose, Michelle and Nayte are the recipients of a down payment on a house (via gingerbread house). This baffles our co-hosts who wonder how much a house in Minnesota costs and also just how much that check was for. We also riff on Brandon and his red flags, […]

We start off this podcast episode talking about And Just Like That…. And, just like that, we’re in the fantasy suite episode of the Bachelorette. It’s a tame episode which leads to a tame podcast, but we do touch on various aspects of the love that each contestant is in with Michelle. Plus, we argue […]

In this episode a lot of people forget how to apologize. But we Bachelor Masters don’t forget how to argue, in this case, about those apology-forgetters. We also get confused by Clayton’s preview footage, talk about crappy novels we had to read in high school, and, of course, end with the Fashion Roundup where we […]

In this podcast episode we talk about the four hometown dates which are all actually in Minneapolis despite only Joe being from there. Thanks, pandemic! And, we have a lot to say about the dates despite them being pretty boring overall. Thanks, parents! Hit the play button and join us!
