    A Quick Dip Into ‘Love Overboard’ & ‘Bachelor Mansion Takeover'
    Mar 31 2026
    This week, we’re taking a little break from “Bachelorette” chaos to dip our toes into some other reality shows. We sampled Hulu’s recent yacht-based, class-war-themed dating show “Love Overboard,” as well as HGTV’s Bachelor mansion renovation show, “Bachelor Mansion Takeover.” To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Jessi Draper On CHD & More Taylor and Dakota News

    Jessi Draper On CHD & More Taylor and Dakota News
    Mar 26 2026
    (Trigger Warning: Domestic violence and emotional abuse) If you or someone you know has been impacted by domestic violence, you can call 800-799-7233, or text BEGIN to 88788. Please listen to this episode with care. Jessi Draper and Jordan Ngatikaura’s rocky marriage has been one of the most upsetting storylines on “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” for the past two seasons – especially the public revelation that not only did Jessi have a brief, tepid affair with Marciano from “Vanderpump Villa,” but Jordan had been self-admittedly emotionally abusive to her for years. So the fandom applauded the news last week that Jordan had filed for divorce. Yesterday, Jessi’s interview on Call Her Daddy dropped, and she spared no details, opening up about learning that Jordan had tried to hire escorts, her belief that he attended sex parties, and the chilling moment she realized that he was trying to film her angry reaction to him blackmailing her with threats of revealing her affair on TikTok. At the end of the episode, we also got into some news updates regarding Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen, as well as rumors that ABC and WBD might be holding out hope that they can air “The Bachelorette” season at some point in the future.

  • Unpacking ‘The Bachelorette’ Cancellation

    Unpacking ‘The Bachelorette’ Cancellation
    Mar 21 2026
    (Trigger Warning: Domestic violence) If you or someone you know has been impacted by domestic violence, you can call 800-799-7233, or text BEGIN to 88788. Please listen to this episode with care. On Thursday afternoon, in the wake of some pretty horrifying video footage of a 2023 domestic incident between Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen, Disney announced that it would not be moving forward with the 22nd season of “The Bachelorette.” In this episode, we talk through the lead-up to the cancellation and the fallout, the era of “messy” women on reality TV, the network’s culpability in all of this, and our own. We tried to be as thoughtful, nuanced and responsible as possible in this discussion, and hold a lot of hard truths at once.

  • ‘Bachelorette’ S22 Cast Bios: Mama’s Boys & Cowboy Cosplayers

    ‘Bachelorette’ S22 Cast Bios: Mama’s Boys & Cowboy Cosplayers
    Mar 17 2026
    It’s almost time for Taylor Frankie Paul’s journey on “The Bachelorette” to officially begin, which means that it’s time for us to dive into the cast bios. Twenty-two strapping men who fall broadly into the categories of Former Athlete, Surf Guy, Cowboy and self-proclaimed Mama’s Boy (with a side of Dakota Mortensen lookalikes), will be wooing TFP. And turns out, we had a lot to say about them, despite knowing very little. We also discuss the “Bachelorette” reunion / season preview that aired after The Oscars, as well as the social media rollout of the official cast announcements. This season might end up being a trainwreck, but it absolutely won’t be boring.

  • ‘Love Is Blind’ S10 Reunion: Bad Bad Ohio Boys

    ‘Love Is Blind’ S10 Reunion: Bad Bad Ohio Boys
    Mar 12 2026
    The latest ‘Love Is Blind’ reunion brought together pod squads past and present, so Vanessa could celebrate “our marrieds” and the growing “LIB” baby boom. But the focus was on this season’s drama – and there was plenty of it. A very red-faced, bob-haired Chris tried to repair, or at least not do further damage to, his image. A polo-shirt-wearing Alex tried to out-lawyer Ashley and the hosts. Amber and Jordan air their grievances. Devonta has some big news – and not just that he’s living with Alex in Austin. But we also do get some bright spots: Jess hard-launches a new relationship, Vic and Christine give the most pure marital updates, and one couple who seemed to break up reveals that they are in fact still together! And perhaps the brightest spot of all: The Lacheys finally learned to ask some follow-up questions.

  • ‘Love Is Blind’ S10 E12: Four Weddings And An Evisceration

    ‘Love Is Blind’ S10 E12: Four Weddings And An Evisceration
    Mar 4 2026
    It’s wedding time on “Love Is Blind”! Five couples are marriage-bound when the day dawns, but by reception hour, just two to four (depending on how you read it) are still standing. We finally get Mike’s answer to Emma’s “I do,” and head into two deeply ominous weddings – including the franchise’s first ceremony fueled purely by mutual hatred – as well as a pre-altar, one-sided break-up. Finally, we get a taste of romance, as the finale concludes with one purely happy marriage. We also dive into some pod squad gossip at the top of the episode, including Alex’s public apology to Tim Howard and more uncomfortable revelations about Devonta’s relationship history.

  • Jess & Emma From ‘Love Is Blind’ Open Up & ‘The Traitors’ Reunion Highlights

    Jess & Emma From ‘Love Is Blind’ Open Up & ‘The Traitors’ Reunion Highlights
    Mar 2 2026
    In this grab bag bonus episode, we dip into some thoughts on the “Traitors” reunion, including Candiace’s dubious insinuation that Rob cheated and Colton’s moment in the hot seat. Then we turn to “Love Is Blind,” catching up with two of our favorite ladies from this season, Emma Betsinger and Jessica Barrett, who each have a lot to say about some of the most controversial and shocking moments from their storylines. Emma weighs in on the (at times harsh!) audience reaction to her maternal ambivalence, and Jess reacts to some post-filming revelations about Chris and tells us what she thinks was really going on when he told her he usually dates women who “go to pilates every day.” To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
