    Nov 22 2022

    Kate and Marcie are back from our Bachelor Nation break to discuss another reality TV show favorite - Netflix's Love Is Blind!

    We're comparing Season 3 Dallas to Season 2 Chicago and discussing the most toxic couples and the latest breaking news of Raven and SK's breakup after some cheating rumors surfaced last week. Then we do a deep dive on each of the couples: Alexa and Brennon, Nancy and Bartise, SK and Raven, Cole and Zanab and Matt Colleen.

    Plus, we are obviously discussing the reunion, including the infamous 'cuties' scene and what the choice to air that could mean. (Are the producers on Team Cole here?)

  • "We were on a break!" The Bachelorette Finale
    Sep 21 2022

    Kate and Marcie break down (one of?) the most dramatic Bachelorette finales ever!

    First off, Kate admits her defeat - Marcie was right about Tino and Kate was wrong. Very wrong. But Rachel is not looking too great either...

    Listen in as we compare the Rachel/Tino breakup to the Becca/Arie breakup and discuss Rachel threatening to take her ring off, if one kiss is cheating - or could you work it out if you really wanted to? - and so much more!

    Plus, we dig into Gabby and Erich's relationship (will it last? why didn't ABC address certain things? where are they living now?) and the new Bachelor, Zach, who we certainly aren't thrilled with. What a mess of a season...

  • Tino, What's In the Black Book?!
    Sep 14 2022

    Kate and Marcie discuss Part 1 of the alledged 'most talked about Finale ever.'

    We go over the 'good PR' discussion between Zach and Rachel (Is Zach getting a Bachelor edit...?!), the Aven engagement / breakup debacle, and we talk a little bit about Gabby, but let's real - tonight was The Rachel Show.

    Plus, we discuss Tino's conversations with Rachel's family and what in the world is in that black book of his in the previews?!

  • Declarations of Love, Fantasy Suites Gone Wrong and A Cup of Joe
    Sep 7 2022

    Kate and Marcie are back to recap Gabby and Rachel's Fantasy Suites in Mexico!

    We start off by discussing the whiplash of switching back and forth between Gabby and Rachel's dates, Tino's red flags and what Erich and Gabby talked about in private that he later brought up in front of the cameras.

    Then we get into Jason and Gabby's heartbreaking (and confusing) goodbye. Was Jason in the wrong? Did he know what he was signing up for by going on The Bachelorette?

    And of course, we go over what could have gone wrong between Rachel and Zach in the Fantasy Suites. Is Zach telling America Rachel is fake? Was it a political or religious conversation that went wrong?
