This week, we walk through the first half of the women on Bachelor Grant’s cast! We talk through their likes, dislikes, and an oddly large number of mentions of the Jonas Brothers and interest in shopping. We also talk through the first few episodes of the current season of The Traitors, including our first impressions of all the players, who we love, who we love to hate, and who we’re watching closely as the game gets good!

We’re starting off the New Year with our final recaps of Love Island AU Season 6 and The Ultimatum Season 3, which both ended at the close of 2024. On Love Island AU, we talk about where all the couples ended up and where they are now (spoiler: almost no one made it even a day outside of the villa), and what contestants are saying about each other and what really went on in the villa now that the season is over. We also discuss the finale and reunion of The Ultimatum Season 3, including our final impressions of all the cast members and the final couples, and where everyone is now post show and reunion.

We’re knee deep in this season of The Ultimatum and it’s time to unpack our thoughts! We talk through all the drama this season with the couples, including the shocking exit of two entire couples, Scotty’s overall bad behavior, JR’s simple needs in a relationship and who can give it to him, Sandy’s best option for a partner, Nick’s terrible art, and Caleb and Aria’s beautiful trial marriage. We give our predictions for the end of the season, and what we know about where the cast is now from social media and more!
We also discuss the latest episodes of Love Island AU, including the aftermath of movie night, the audition tape video reveal, and Hannah jumping at the chance to tell the whole villa that she looks like Margot Robbie. We also talk about how the season reveals the excessive patriarchy (and prudiness!) down under, why this season has fallen short on real love stories, and (spoiler alert!) the gossip about the cast from after the season.

This week, we’re talking about all the drama on Love Island AU, including Hannah’s bizarre return (complete with a speech written by ChatGPT), our ongoing hatred of Taylor and just about everything he does, the drama between the girls, our new bombshells, and all the tidbits we can’t wait to get revealed during movie night! We also check in on Xanthe and Taylor sightings outside of the Villa, and why we’re totally not on the same page with TikTok’s opinion of this cast.
We also dive into the latest season of The Ultimatum on Netflix, and we have a lot to say.
Why are Nick and Vanessa the experts of giving an ultimatum, but didn’t have to experience anything these couples have to experience?! Why are we watching “get ready with me” videos of JR every episode? Why are people giving ultimatums when they’ve only been together for 2 years? We talk through all the couples and offer our hopes, dreams, and predictions for all of them.

It’s almost Thanksgiving and this week, we are thankful for the delightful vibes on Love Island AU. We talk about all the current couples, the brewing love triangles (and squares), the unbelievably horrible men, the women who are too good for them, and our predictions for how things will transpire in the coming episodes. We also talk about some other pop culture chatter, including the new HBO documentary Breath of Fire, this week’s DWTS finale, Jenn & Sasha’s potential love connection, and the upcoming season of The Traitors. Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

This week, we are joined by returning guest Zara Hanawalt to dissect Joan’s Golden Bachelorette Finale, including her choices, the episode’s memorable moments, and how we feel about her and Chalk. We also discuss wider conversations in Bachelor Nation, including what people did (or didn’t) have to say post-election. Then, we dig into the new season of Love Island AU! We discuss our favorite contestants, our thoughts on all the current couples, and this season’s Gods and Goddess plot twist.

After a couple weeks off and a very upsetting election, we’re back with all of our unfiltered thoughts about the state of our country, why Joan’s men made us a little better, and why we pretty much never want to see the cast of Love is Blind S7 ever again.

Though this wasn’t the most riveting week of reality dating tv, we’re here to recap Joan’s hometown dates and the finale of Love is Blind DC. We discuss all of Joan’s hometown dates, including tangents about veneers and keratin hair treatments, because there’s almost nothing else to talk about? We also discuss the incredibly cringey Love is Blind finale, including the real backstory with Tyler and his kids, what we really think Ramses was doing when he broke up with Marissa, the most unfair Bachelorette party of all time, and our sincere love of Garrett and Taylor’s union! We finish with a political rant spurred by Madi Prew’s recent (and extremely annoying) social media posts, and a plea to get your vote in early!

This week, we catch up on the latest episode of the Golden Bachelorette, which has basically cemented Mark’s position as the next Golden Bachelor? While we’re sad to see him leave, we hope he’ll be back for more in future seasons of the show. We also discuss Chock’s undeniable connection with Joan, our surprise at the men who get sent home this week, and those who make it through to hometowns.
Then, we chat Love is Blind DC, and how we think basically every couple needs to break up except for Garrett and Taylor. We discuss Ramses’ self-image of being a good guy, when he’s actually just an asshole, our surprise at Tim’s reaction to Alex after meeting his parents, our take on the end of Hannah and Nick’s relationship, and Tyler and Ashley’s increasingly disastrous situation.
We also chat about the recent arrest details for Hannah from Love Island USA.
