Just like in Beetlejuice... if you say something 3 times bad shit happens, but perhaps Clayton was too busy playing football as a youth to watch that Tim Burton classic to learn that vital lesson. Because our tall, horny, half zipper sweater wearing bachelor, couldn't stop saying the L Word (ooops wrong show but just as much drama) this week and shocker! bad shit happened. It's so messy ya'll!! But luckily you have two opinionated bitches ready to break it all down with you (hopefully with some nuance!)! So buckle your useless safety helmets on and join us in this anxiety volcano!!

We did it. Like we actually fucking did it. We made it through the last 2 1/2 months (Clayton's mess) and 16 months (non stop content) of hell. Are we in one piece? Mentally, physically, and spiritually? No (Said in Gabby). But did we have fun? You don't have the capacity to understand what we've been through (also said in Gabby). Do we have a lot of opinions? Yeah (again said in Gabby). And who else to wrap up this 'journey' up with then bestie Sophie James of Unpaid Emotional Labor!! And true to every podcast we have done with Sophie, we went for two full god given, glorious, daylight saved hours. YOU'RE WELCOME! Make sure you're following Sophie @unpaidemotionallabor and we cannot ever thank her enough for all the amazing chats and laughs this last year. We love you so much!!!

What I will say…is that Cam - co host of the @whatiwillsay podcast - and Jenna have a super fun time discussing all things gay in the bachelor and celebrity realm!  We talk Bayley, queer conspiraships, the closet, community, the top 5 queerest moments in the bachelor franchise and so much more!!! It was a honor to chat with Cam and I can't thank her enough!!  Check it out and then check out Cam's tumblr, tiktok and podcast! It's one of Jenna's Fave Things™️ or maybe it's like Goop and I recommend it to you but we call it Poop because that's us.  Happy Pride bbs!!!  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/what-i-will-say/id1527132455 https://whatiwillsay.tumblr.com/ https://www.tiktok.com/@whatiwillsay?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc

WE'RE BACK! And holy hell that was a delightful extended break. Although we didn't necessarily relax with a cocktail in hand the entire 4 months, no - one of us got married and finally consummated the dang thing nice and one of us worked on a campaign that slanders the show. Time well spent if we say so our selves! But all that aside we're back for another season of sparkling dresses, gross kissing sounds, men being rude, and of course some drama! But now with 100% more lead! That's right folks we got a BOGO! But in all seriousness, we are excited and happy for Gachel and frankly a structure change! Before the big premiere tonight listen in now as Danika and Jenna attempt to subscribe morality to 32 men only based on a singular black and white photo and three facts the show pulled out of thin air!

And just like that we're officially back in to it with cringe limo entrances, men talking over the women, and magic tricks??? Sure why not. The men really didn't impress but our stunning leads, Rachel and Gabby, sure the fuck did. With lots of shit talking, making heart eyes at each other, laughing at the expense of men, and generally controlling the environment in a way that makes us horny. Listen in as guest host and friend of the pod, Kellie, and Jenna dissect some bach gossip and ponder the bigger picture of what it means to have two leads. Spoiler we kinda spiral. It's great.

Okay okay okay we're in it NOW folks! Week 2 of Gachel's journey to find love (with each other????) is underway. Naturally that means a date that objectifies the men half naked, awkward kisses in zero gravity, and forced country pop singing by two people we have never heard of. Cheers to finding love! But really the true love forming is Danikas obsession with Gabby.

This week we had some snafu's that lead to a non traditional recap... more of a 20 rant-cap of week 3 and some of the poopy men and then a Patreon drop of a fun bonus episode we did a few months ago!

What happens when you have two wildly different Bachelorette leads on one season and two wildly pessimistic podcasters trying to bring nuance to an impossible show concept?? You get two canceled podcasters. JK JK But also please forgive us for this one episode, in 10 seasons, where we kinda sorta barely stand up for men. We promise to be more hateful again next week.

This week Danika and Podsband Andrew tackle hometowns while Jenna gets drunk for her birthday and sings Taylor Swift badly at karaoke. They talk about their own hometowns, the battle of the dad Italians (Rachel's dad v Tino's dad) (the Mario and Warri of our generation), have a serious talk about parents dying and meeting folks in the midst of all of that, and then tell like maybe three jokes.

Double the leads, double the fantasy suites....double your pleasure. Well...actually we're not sure we can call what happened this week pleasurable. Messy? Yes. Dramatic? Yes. A masterclass on How To Lose A Gal In 10 Days? Very much yes. And here with Jenna this week to break it all down is friend of the pod, Limi from @takethisrosepod! Oh and for Reality Steve, who clearly listens, we can provide a timestamp for when we dunk on you if that helps. It's round the 10 minute mark. You're welcome! Thank you Limi!

I guess we just got part of a finale. As a treat. But honestly it felt like a trick. And to help Jenna break it all down she is joined by friend of the pod and 1/6th of the amazing Roses For Every Body campaign, Olivia Green. Together they weave a cautionary tale of what not to do, wether that be drive drunk with an 18 year old, try to 'win' a break up before a rose ceremony, tell a gay you're not ready to propose to his best friend, or finally...date a single mom up until you leave for the show and text her that you're just trying to get clout.

Have you ever thought about how The Bachelor and Bachelorette is a lot like a horror slasher film? In that it's a sexy elimination based competition storyline in which we, the viewer, are glued to the screen to see who the last one standing is? Well our special guest and author, Samantha Allen, has and she's on this weeks episode to talk about her bachelor-ish queer horror novel - Patricia Wants To Cuddle - and to talk about the devastating slaying that was this finale.

Well Marilyn has and she decided to dive so deep in to the why and how, that she wrote her Masters dissertation about the topic! And this week she is on the podcast to talk about the the swing back we all have been feeling, why it feels good to have discourse about the shows, and the importance of movements.

Welcome to Gaylor 101! Your crash course to that thing you keep hearing about on Tiktok. In this 'very special episode' Jenna is joined by Cam, the host of What I Will Say podcast, to give an general overall yet decently extensive look at the Gaylor community. Which assembles around the idea and theory that Taylor Swift is not straight. Now before you write a comment calling us weird (which will be deleted and you will be blocked anyways) we invite you to just give it a listen. With an open heart and mind. Especially if you are a queer ally. None of this is that deep or scandalous, and you will find it is not much different from how many of us engage in celebrity gossip and fandoms. Like The Bachelor even. Cam and Jenna go over the years of queer coding (that aren't related to ships), a glossary of terms and events, some of the gayest songs, and perhaps the most important part we talk about the 'why we do it' and some reasonable guidelines on how to enter this space in a healthy and respectful way. Thank you again to Cam and make sure you're subscribed to her podcast for all the amazing analysis and takes!

This week Jenna is joined by friend, Roses For Every Body campaign member, and Love Island fan Olivia to recap this week of Paradise. And all the ways in which the show tried, failed, and in some ways succeeded to perform life saving CPR to this dying dinosaur of a franchise.

Hope you enjoyed your break because The Bachelor is back and with it is another crop of sexy babies and monsters on the hill trying to win a Neil Lane ring. Or I guess...we mean Zach's heart. Quick name one thing you know about Zach! If your only answer is that he's white or his uncle is Puddy from Seinfeld, then you're about as prepared as any of us are!

And just like that we have a 'new' season of The Bachelor! For better or for worse we are now rooting for a deep voiced man who is likes football and has aspirations of being a Wife Guy (oooof that title has been ruined hasn't it?). Despite very little effort on the franchises part to make us feel any sort of connection with this man created from on of Bachelor Clues' AI generators, Date Card Pod is back to recap, theorize, talk shit, and befriend/make enemies with the 30 (now 20) women who are on the journey of a lifetime to answer the age old question: Is he hot or is he tall? Thank you to all the besties and haters keeping this podcast going and I hope you enjoy the new podcast structure I am workshopping! Love you all! Couldn't do it without you!

Well wouldn't you know it's week two of Mr. Zachelors journey to find love with a stunning woman (probably a nurse) on tv for our entertainment, and the drama is already starting to heat up in the mansion. And to help me make sense of any of it is writer, podcaster, and pop culture girlie Sophie Ross! We give our roses and thorns of the week, talk about some trending topics, and of course we rant about Nck Vall for a while because Sophie and I are twin flames apparently.

Touchdown bros! It's week 3 of The Zachelor and let's just say all the tight ends and receivers...were in it to win it winky emoji. And by it I guess I mean a chance to see the leads ballzachs. I don't know dudes shit got weird this week. But whats more important is that Bekah Cloud, a TikToker, Yoga Instructor & Aerialist, joins the pod to talk Bachelor, Grammy's, Gaylor & Disability Representation. Born with VATER Syndrome, Bekah shares her experiences and journey to accepting and understanding that “Disability” isn't a bad word. We're not broken. We don't need to be fixed. And we deserve the right to be manipulated by producers on National TV too! This important and really great conversation starts at around minute 48 and content warning for light discussion of mental illness, addiction, ED, and assault.

To help me make heads or tails of how this excitable guy has managed to surpass many expectations, so far, is one of the members of @the_blk_roses podcast, the lovely Claudia Thompson. We get in to the drama between Kylee and Stasi, discuss Brooklyn's bravery, give our roses and thorns of week 4, and give our opinions on Riri's return to the stage and Leonardo DiCaprio's career choices.

And just like that we're over the half way mark of this season of The Zachelor and you know who else is OVER something? Zach. And the something he's over? Any woman who is kinda sorta a bummer. Pray for this man her will not survive this season I fear. To break down all of the Kat fighting (get it???) this week, I am joined by hilarious content creator, Olivia Layne! She loves to lovingly snark on The Bachelor, fashion and pop culture and ya'll are going to love her hot takes on Zach the grump, Brooklyn the horse girl, and the iconic farewell of American Girl Doll Jess.

It's week 7! Lucky number 7! And that means it's pre hometowns week! Ummmm wtf how did this season go by so quickly? I guess the saying is true, time flies when you're having just an okay time. But ya'll you are about to have a great fucking time because bestie of the podcast, Connie, is back to recap, roast, and relate to the struggles of these contestants just trying to not suddenly be disliked by Zach. Together we expose mentalists for †heir trickery, piece together the secondary love story of this season, love on Gabi, and speculate about the Women Tell All.

Hey besties we got a BOGO! Two episodes recapped for the price of one! What a deal! And here to assist Jenna in this Hometowns Women Yell All crossover event of the century is friend and fellow Roses For Every Body campaign member, Jenny! Together we wax poetically about the days when the leads didn't have to tell on themselves as much, break bread with the families, lace our shoes up because they fit, undergo some needed DEI training, and accidentally stan both episodes more than our bitter, pessimistic hearts expected.

It may be sex week but its also the dumbass week apparently, because our Zachelor sure did create quite the omg you have got to be kidding me Zach pickle for himself. And to help me wade through the stagnant waters of that final date and recap this week, I am joined again by author of Patricia Wants To Cuddle, the lovely Samantha Allen. Together we defend the Recchia, try to make sense of the motives behind Zach's unnecessary parameters, unpack the religious subtext, and naturally try to get to the bottom of what happened in that final overnight date.

When you're here, you're FAMILY. And that's also the theme of this week of The Bachelor, as Joey got to meet his final 4's families. And surprisingly it was entertaining and interesting??? I'm grateful I got to jump on with Renise from Kickin It With Rae Podcast! We get into family dynamics, Joeys responses, where the women shined or fumbled, and some thoughts on how bach nation is reacting. Huge thank you to Renise for having me on and I want you all to check out her page @kickinitwith_rae and her podcast feed where we have dual dropped the episode! https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/kickin-it-with-rae/id1647567397 Follow us on insta @datecardpod Twitter @datecardpodcast Tiktok @datecardpodcast @jennawithasmile  Art: Mikaela @mikaelajane Jane  mikaela-jane.com  Music: Jed Overly @jeddyboyjames  https://www.flowcode.com/page/jeddyjames  Proud podcast of So Below Medial

I have to say after an entire season of beating us over the heads with tennis related moments, they really failed during Fantasy Suites to bring us any tennis related sex puns. According to a list of tennis terms I just googled, we could have seen talk of Forehand, Stroke, Ground Stroke, Foot Fault, and being a Receiver. I'm disappointed. But what does not disappoint, is this weeks podcast with guest Leah from Positively Uncensored! Together we talk about the overnight dates and what was said in the unsaid, the golden ladies, who knocked boots, and miraculously fixed the BIP problem facing the franchise. YOU'RE WELCOME! Big thank you to Leah and make sure you're checking out her tiktok and podcast at @positivelyuncensored Follow us on insta @datecardpod Twitter @datecardpodcast Tiktok @datecardpodcast @jennawithasmile  Art: Mikaela @mikaelajane Jane  mikaela-jane.com  Music: Jed Overly @jeddyboyjames  https://www.flowcode.com/page/jeddyjames  Proud podcast of So Below Media

As is tradition we must gather all the ex's in one room and let the tension rise to the point of tears. But luckily there was some bombshells and soft moments to help ease the strife...barely. And to help me break down the Women Tell All, I am joined by Joey's future bae - Epiphany! Together we talk about how we got to this stage in the season, the main drama (Maria), the rampant racism, and our predicitions for the soft babygirl. Thank you Epiphany again- I LOVE YOU!

I don't think any of us saw this season and what it would bring coming. But it came for us regardless. The highs, the lows, the twists, the expected, and everything in between. We did it together. And to help celebrate that I was stoked to bookend the season with Shannon from Do The Roses Align. Together we talk about the finale, the edits, the girl power, the gay, the Bachelorette announcement and of course we talk THE PLANETS. Because the show had a birthday and it all means something people. Thank you Shannon and make sure you follow her at @dotherosesalign for all your gay astrology needs.

In this off season episode I'm joined by Shannon who, like me and Taylor, is also a member of The Tortured Poets Department. Which if you're confused about what that means, it just means we're traumatized gays with some mental illness. Together we try to spread the gospel of the alleged secondary layer of both albums...and oops it's almost two hours long. Just like this god forsaken double album drop. lol Thank you @dotherosesalign as always Follow us on insta @datecardpod Twitter @datecardpodcast Tiktok @datecardpodcast @jennawithasmile  Art: Mikaela @mikaelajane Jane  mikaela-jane.com  Music: Jed Overly @jeddyboyjames  https://www.flowcode.com/page/jeddyjames  Proud podcast of So Below Media

Three years ago disgraced host of The Bachelor franchise, Chris Harrison, was fired for his racist outburst and subsequent insincere apologies. But in those years he has attempted to rewrite that time and his legacy. And with the impending reality of his new dating show and continued image rehab...Limi and I wanted to work on a timeline deep dive of what happened in 2021 and prior. In hopes that it would not be swept under the rug or misremembered. To hold space for what it was like during these intense moments, reflect on how we got there and here in 2024, and to ask the real question: was he actually fired or treated like a powerful rich white man? CW: talk of racism and chris harrison Huge thank you to Limi from @takethisroseortakethisl for joining me on this journey. I can't wait for part two!

The Bachelor franchise and the Pageantry world have had a long and rich history, one that makes sense on the surface. But when interrogated a little more the layers are quite fascinating...especially the gay layer. Because baby this is AMERICA and we have gay and trans Pageant Queens!! and !!gasp!! gay bachelor contestants! As god intended! And to here to discuss all of that and beyond, I'm joined by Sofi Miranda Fred - an open and proud lesbian Pageant Queen in Texas!

Pride is still in full swing and so I asked friend of the pod Mx. Lindz Amer of Queer Kids Stuff back on the pod to talk about the state of gays in reality tv and beyond! We also chat about their amazing web series geared towards creating safe, educational, and fun videos for LGBTQIA+ kids and their families!! Like Mister Rogers, but somehow gayer.

To close out this Pride2024 at Date Card Pod Industries, I asked long time friend of the pod and fellow gay bach peer, Justin Takes The Bach, to come on and play a fun game that we came up with! Bachelor Nation Superlatives ...but GAY! Who is most likely to come out one day, who is most likely to be the biggest ally ...and some more spicy ones in between. It must be said this is just us being two silly goofy gays and is in no way what we think is reality!!!! Thank you Justin I adore you!!!

You're on a hike and you see a bear or 25 men about to be on reality television? Who do you choose? Well Shannon (from Do The Roses Align) and I attempt to get to know the men first via their ABC bios and sun signs before we decide. Tune in to see who we choose, which man is most likely to block me or get in beef with Nick Viall, and of course who will maybe one day come out. /joking Follow us on insta @datecardpod Twitter @datecardpodcast Tiktok @datecardpodcast @jennawithasmile Art: Olivia Zakes Green https://www.oliviazakesgreen.com/ Music: Jed Overly @jeddyboyjames https://www.flowcode.com/page/jeddyjames Proud podcast of So Below Media

We're back baby!! And I'm so JENNuinely excited for this season of The Bachelorette! As a day one Jenn stan I am living for the start of her journey and I couldn't wait to talk about night one with some one just as excited! In comes the delightful Tam Nguyen!

The jury is still out but thankfully I am joined by the amazing famous vegan chef and content creator, Lauren Toyota, who is all to ready to get in to it with me!

But thankfully I am joined by artist and deep pit member, Ella Talkin, to dissect this State Of Grace and the context of all in which we live.

In week 4 of Jenn's journey to find a man worthy of her time and energy, we really had to question how low the bar is for these men. And thankfully this week I was joined by the ladies at Trash TV Pods, and together we found its somewhere between surface level and hell. Huge thank you to Tat and Rachel from Trash TV Pod for having me on and for all the laughs!

Jenn may be a BaaaBaaaBadass but most of her remaining men are a bunch of sheep that need to be herded. And to help me scream into the void about it I'm joined by Claudia from The Rose Noire Podcast.

Almost a week later and there is STILL more to say about Jenn's finale and how the franchise fumbled in all the ways. Joined by Limi from Take This Rose Or Take This L, we try to elaborate on the feelings we're all feeling. And call to account specifically the way the casting and some producers caused so much harm.

Devin asked if bach nation was done yet, and to that I say...nope. Because I am back to have a more fluid and deeper convo with a friend of the pod and advocate- Natalie- together we get into what all this mess means for the franchise. Regarding the pattern it has enabled or even sought to create, the damage it does, and how we got here. CW: open discussion about DV and SA and the systems that they exist in Thank you Natalie!!

The Bachelor is back baby and with that comes another pack of dazzling pediatric nurses and models, all vying for the affections of one Mr. Grant Ellis!
