Join Bachelor nation super fans Annie and Hailey as they talk about Bachelor Nation episodes as they happen - with a twist. In a franchise as ridiculous as the Bachelor, some things seem too crazy to be true, and Annie and Hailey are here to capitalize on that. The girls have guests on every week to talk about the episodes with them, and then present their guests with 2 truths and lie (roses and thorns) and their guest to guess which parts of the show are just crazy enough to be true. On The Bachelor or Bachelorette, that task is harder than it seems...
A new season - the ladies are BACK and already over this BS. In true Befumbled fashion, Hailey and Anna are 3 episodes behind, so Annie catches Hailey up on Episode 1 and 2 of Rachel and Gabby's season. The girls giggle over Gabby and discuss their confusion over the number of men in this season. It's the beginning of another season of the girls wondering why they even like this god forsaken show. Let's do the dang thing!
Due to Hailey complete lack of commitment to this season (which the girls get into), Annie is in charge of recounting Fantasy Suites and allll the Susie drama. The girls discuss if Clayton or Susie was in the wrong or if these are just two people with different expectations. Of course, the girls yet again speculate how this show will end, and if they'll finally receive a break from this never ending franchiseAlso, if you're looking for a recap of the women tell all - this ain't the place. We couldn't even bring ourselves to watch it.
Hello our Befumbled folks! Today we chatted through Hometowns — well, a little. Mostly we talked about our childhoods and our love of Disney and Nickelodeon. We swear we eventually got to the actual Bachelor content but... it took a while.
The ladies are so excited to present their first ever episode recorded in the same room! Join Hailey and Annie in Annie's apartment as the girls discuss the last few weeks of Clayton's season. They finally feel like they're getting to the meat and potatoes of Clayton's season, and they make their predictions for how the rest of his season plays out. The girls talk about Sara drama, Hannah Ann's Instagram behavior, and Brendan Quinn's idiocy. And the girls use their investigative genius to make their predictions for future drama! Plug in your headphones and pretend you're hanging out with us!
Hailey and Annie are back and it's ABSOLUTE chaos. If you don't want to listen to their amazing banter, skip ahead to 11:00 for bachelor content.The girls discuss Chatty Broads' new direction and debate the ultimate question: Is Clayton aware of what he's doing, or is just a himbo? The girls talk about Bachelor's blatant corporate sponsorships, including… the fishing industry? And of course, they break down shrimp, Shanae, and their predictions for the rest of his season.
Hello, Befumbled nation! This week Annie is on with her pal Stephanie to discuss himboism, Dancing with the Stars thievery and the ill-fated Shrimpcident of Clayton's season.
Hello, team! Today we brought on our favorite future lawyer to ask her all her hot Ivy League goss, what libel/slander really is and so much more. Oh, and we also talked about the latest episode of Colton's — I mean Clayton's — season.
It's a new year, and a new season of this god forsaken franchise. The girls get into their 2022 goals before diving into gossip. They discuss Befumbled's new Twitter account (are you following???) and C*lton's new house with his boyfriend before they dive into Clayton's journey as The Bachelor. Annie gives her best shot at befumbling Hailey. Here we go again...
Hailey and Annie are back, and somehow they don't know the names of one of this season's main characters. In our defense, we've seen 50+ people compete for love this past year... so we are excused. On this ep, we discuss Michelle's finale!
It's Fantasy Suites week, folks! And despite what is normally a juicy-filled episode, the girls are BURNT OUT. Bachelor Nation, we can't keep doing this... and you expect us to watch a whole new season one week after Michelle's?! The things we do for this pod. Hailey is here to befumble Annie this week, but in reality, it's Hailey recapping the episode thanks to a recap article on Vulture--thanks Ali Barthwell! That's what happens when you don't confirm details of your episode before recording. The girls speculate on the finale and continue to sing Michelle's praises.
Welcome to the shortest episode yet--all thanks to that boring Men Tell All. The girls rehash what little drama there was, including Tayshia's "painful" break up. Annie successfully befumbles Hailey on the bizarre content that there was in this episode--sculptures??? Streaking???? A lawyer??? There isn't much to talk about, but the girls do their best!
Hello hello! We have returned with a guest and we're about to spill to her all the Olivia Rodrigo "Sour"-esque details about the John/Katie situation, along with an episode rundown of Michelle's hometowns! Will our guest be fooled? You'll have to listen to find out.
It's episode 30 and Annie and Hailey decide they should maybe have some sort of podcast introduction? Annie successfully befumbles Hailey, while the girls reflect on what it means to bring someone home to your parents. The girls are still obsessed with Michelle and also confused why Clayton was picked as the next Bachelor. All in a day's work!
We're back and with a brand new guest! Meet our friend, Jojo... but is it Jojo the singer, Jojo the dancer or Jojo the bachelorette? You'll have to listen to find out.
*This episode was recorded on the eve of Red (Taylor's Version) so skip ahead to 8:00 minutes if you're not interested in Hailey and Annie's swiftie talk”Join Annie and Hailey for another week of Michelle's season! Hailey befumbles herself with her poor note-taking skills and then forgets that cell phones existed ten years ago. The ladies discuss Clayton's lack luster performance so far this season, their guess for Michelle's final four, and Rick's intense eye contact. And, of course, the girls get into all the drama as to why Everybody Hates Chris.
Hello hello! Hailey and Annie are spiraling this week. Annie watched the episode and somehow barely retained anything. But what did she remember? Insane quotes. The gals also gab about Hailey's secret life as the Pier One princess and limes. Oh, and they recap the episode.
Michelle's season has begun and Annie and Hailey are ready to dig right into the drama. Hailey does her best to befumble Annie, while also starting to solidify her fave men of the season - where are my Olumide and Martin fans at? The girls discuss the elephant in the room (Katie and Blake's short-lived engagement), but to be honest, Annie and Hailey feel pretty meh about the whole thing, and are hoping for better luck with Michelle. The girls also speculate on the richest couples of Bachelor Nation; explain a Nebraska classic, Heritage School, to their listeners (#iykyk); and discuss Hailey's passion for apples, which seems to be at least slightly stronger than Rodney's.
Hello Befumbled buds! This week, we're befumbled about everything. Well, Hailey isn't but Annie definitely is. We didn't get a look at the guys because Annie needed a break last week (oops), and then her descriptions to Hailey certainly weren't anything to write home about. But hey, it's only night one baby! It just gets better from here... hopefully?
In case you were wondering if Annie and Hailey like Joe and Serena, this episode is them just 60 minutes of them spiraling over the best Paradise couple of all time. Hailey recaps the final whirlwind six hours of this year's Bachelor in Paradise. The girls check their BIP predictions made at the beginning of the season, Hailey genuinely shocks Annie with all the twists and turns of the finale, and the girls reflect on what it's like for your ex to get married. It's been a crazy couple months, but the girls could not be more excited for Michelle's season. ALSO SORRY MY CAT WAS PLAYING WITH A TOY FOR THE LAST TEN MINUTES OF THE EPISODE --HAILEY
If you're sick of listening to Hailey and Annie's voices, they finally have a guest again! Annie's boyfriend Chris joins the girls to help Annie befumble Hailey and recap the most recent episode of Bachelor in Paradise. Together, they analyze Joe and Kendall's history and speculate which couples are going to ask after paradise. Also... What do they drink and eat on Paradise? Does Wells actually make drinks?
We're back and Annie is broken! We know we're down to one ep a week, but we couldn't help but make another two-parter. Tune in as we dissect body parts, follower counts and GSJ's future ambitions as a cast member of Survivor.
The world is burning around Hailey and Annie but at least they have Bachelor in Paradise content to keep them entertained... except is FOUR HOURS of Bachelor in Paradise a week just a bit too much? Annie is not sure she can commit this much of her life to the Bachelor in Paradise dumpster fire, but they sure do know how to keep her coming back. The girls are still team Ivan and Becca, but they are also terrified for the Joe-Kendall drama to come. And listen all the way to the end for a Barbie tangent that you have to hear to believe.
Hailey and Annie are ready to discuss FOUR HOURS worth of Bachelor in Paradise content, but they're not sure they can mentally and emotionally handle two BIP episodes a week. They discuss all the drama - including Demi's hypocrisy, Connor's ickiness, and whatever world Victoria P lives in. Annie learns what a banana boat is and the girls discuss their ambitious plans for their first celebrity podcast guest. Oh, and Hailey has a Bumble story that will have you deleting your dating apps forever and signing up for the next season of the Bachelor.
Hey y'all, this is Befumbled's OOTD... jk. We recorded this a couple weeks ago after Katie's finale and the first ep of Bachelor in Paradise and we are FULL of takes on cute couples, confusing host history and MUCH more.
Well well well.... what a week to be a Bachelor Nation fan! Annie and Hailey get into it this week, but not without first going into a couple tangents about their first cell phones and the proper wearing of cowboy boots. The girls briefly discuss the most boring Men Tell All ever, as well Michael's dramatic departure and his subsequent social media WILDING before finally getting into hometowns and the meat and potatoes—Greg's insane exit from the show and Bachelor Nation's explosive reaction. And get ready, because the girls have A LOT of opinions - but they might not be what you think. The girls have an in-depth, thoughtful disccusion the power of language, Bachelor Nation's quick psychological diagnoses, and what defines a healthy relationship.
On today's episode, we ask questions — mainly, "how is Brendan still here?" We'll also address runner & track star Katie as she leaps through the hotel to find Andrew, the men's artistic abilities and the concept of attainable hotties.
It's been a minute - but Hailey and Annie never promised consistency! Though it's been a few weeks since the girls recorded, they make up for it by providing a MEGA episode covering the last three episodes--which they somehow do in their shortest episode yet? The girls discuss the recent PPP Bachelor Nation drama, how much they love Katie's cast of sweetie boys, #BusyGirlSummer and the meme gold coming out of this season.
Well, howdy! Hailey and Annie are back, and this time they're in the middle of a heatwave instead of in a crazy snowstorm. Though the weather isn't great, that doesn't stop them from chatting about all the fun of Episode 2 of Katie Thurston's Bachelorette season. Listen up to hear our thoughts on "attainably hot", grief and all sorts of other good things — including Texas's power grid, obviously.
This weekend we brought a on a very special guest to chat all things Episode 1! We are so excited to see where Katie's Bachelorette journey will take her, but mostly we are excited to get past these intros and get into the drama of the season.
The Bachelorette is BACK and so are Hailey and Annie! The girls give you some life updates before diving into Bachelor nation tea, and then they break down Katie's cast of men. Based off of their bios and headshots, how much can the girls really tell about these guys? Annie fills Hailey in on her theory of Christians vs. Christophers, the girls become full #TeamMichael stans, and once again are here to remind you that if you don't like vegetables of mustard… you need to grow up. It's all about the vibes this episode as we begin Katie's season!
... hello? Is this thing on? After a much-needed break due to our rigorous duties as full-time working women and medical miracles, we hopped back on the pod to chat about the latest Bachelor Nation happenings. And there were a lot. We're excited to be back with fun convos over Bach nation births and babies, but also to talk about some more serious topics as well. Tune in next week for our Paradise predictions!
And just like that, another season of this godforsaken show comes to an end. Returning champion Maria joins the girls to discuss all the details of Matt's finale and (more importantly) that intense After the Final Rose. The girls discuss Annie's new four degrees of separation from Tyler Cameron and the Maria's life updates, and reminisce on Sweet Nums appearance on Peter's season. Ultimately, the girls are impressed and thankful for Emmanuel Acho's hosting skills and the difficult conversations on After the Final Rose. And cheers to TWO new bachelorettes!
Welcome to episode 10! After taking a week off, we're back and ready to befumble our way through the Fantasy Suites dates. We'll chat windmills, dream dates, and Hannah Ann's jean capris. Will we be able to handle all the twists n' turns that come with the suites? Probably, especially because Hailey correctly guessed the outcome of the episode within the first five minutes of the show.
Hailey and Annie return to another week of cracking jokes while the entirety of Bachelor Nation is up in flames — we love a good coping mechanism. This week we dive into the fabled Hometown dates, and discuss how we think our own hometowners would go. There's also some hot takes shared about date budgets (or lack thereof), baby cuteness levels and our complicated relationship with a certain franchise that we hold near and dear to our hearts but also low-key hate. Tune in for a good time!
Annie and Hailey are back with a guest to dive into Chris Harrison's downfall and Bachelor Nation's racial reckoning, Texas' crumbling infrastructure and Heather's arrival (and quick departure). The ladies were cut more than half in one episode - so how did we get here? Hailey's college friend Jeffrey joins the girls and very quickly finds himself overwhelmed with all the Bachelor drama. Much like the US, this week's Befumbled is an eventful one! Insta: @befumbledpod
NOTE: This episode was recorded prior to Rachael K.'s statement and Chris Harrison's statement announcing his break from the show, which is why we don't mention it.The Befumbled pod is back, and Annie and Hailey are still just as confused as ever. How could Matt have a fiance if he has so much time to make intricate charcuterie boards? How could the producers fumble the date budgets so badly? How could the show do Magi so dirty? We have a lot of questions — per usual. Let's dive in!
Annie and the girls recap the latest episode, discuss how men furnish their homes, review Bachelor Nation's lukewarm tea, and debate which of Matt's contestants do their own taxes. While the drama is getting old, Hailey and Annie are happy to finally see a few of the women reaping what they sew. As for the dates, did Rachel's one-on-one use up the budget set aside for the group date and Kit's date? Also - why did Rachel get in a limo when they are stuck on the resort? All this and more on this week's episode of Befumbled.Insta: @befumbledpod
Another episode, another night of pointless drama and so little romance. Hailey's roommate and friend, Rebecca, joins the girls to recap the ridiculous drama of this week's episode. The girls discuss the boatload of Bachelor Nation drama, the toxic sex worker slander, the producers' choice to bring in new girls, their newfound obsession with Michelle, and much more. Tune in to recap it all - and catch up on some Bachelor Nation news.Instagram: @befumbled pod
It's another week of dysfunctional drama and very little love here on Matt's season of The Bachelor!

From dates interrupted by donkeys to Chris Harrison's romance novel writings, there's a lot that can befumble Bach nation viewers! Tune in to recap it all — and catch up on some Bachelor Nation news.
The drama is finally starting to heat up and so are the relationships - Annie and Hailey are ready to dive in. Annie recaps the episode to Hailey, and Befumbled Hailey one too many times... The girls discuss the one on ones, how Matt and the girls handle tricky conversations, what kind of group dates they aren't interested in, and of course... Queen Victoria. There's a lot to unpack from Episode 2 of Matt's season, and Annie and Hailey are here to do it while making you laugh along the way.Instagram - @befumbledpod

In preparation for Matt James' season, Annie and Hailey dive into his cast and their bios on ABC.com. They already have their favorites, but they speculate how accurately these bios reflect the women they're going to see on television. They discuss their favorites, their picks for villains, and what makes or breaks a good bio.
