It's time to sit down and have a think about where things are going. On this episode, our second-ever 'State of the Nation' address, we take stock of where the world of The Bachelor AU is right now - hanging a little delicately, perhaps, but not without hope. We suggest some ideas to help the show back on its feet, and pitch some new reality shows of our own. We also take an exciting look at what's ahead for BoH, including some rough plans for the rest of the year, and the announcement of the next show we'll be covering!

In this captivating episode, Emma and Bobo eagerly welcome back the esteemed Marie Chandler, renowned practitioner from Face Reading Sydney. With her expertise in numerology, Marie takes the girls on a fascinating journey into the realm of numbers. Having graced shows like The Bachelor (AU), Studio 10 (AU), and Loose Women (UK), Marie brings a wealth of experience in spiritual disciplines, including Face Reading and numerology. Throughout the episode, Marie unravels the profound energetic influences that numbers exert on our lives, illuminating aspects such as personality traits, emotions, and life paths. As Emma and Bobo delve deeper, they uncover insights that unveil whether they lean towards a 'materialistic hippy' mindset or possess an abundance of confidence.
Thomas Malucelli was 1/3 of the Bachelor's to grace our screen's looking for love on Season 10 of The Bachelor. Although he proposed on the show, that relationship has since ended. Thomas speaks to Taku about the difference between dating in his home country of Italy and Australia, how he manifested being cast on the show, and why healthy living and fitness is so important to him! Nova Entertainment acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we recorded this podcast, the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation. We pay our respect to Elders past and present.

Der "Bachelor" verteilt endlich wieder seine Rosen! Was ist David Jackson für ein Mann und welcher Frau malen wir nach Folge 1 große Chancen aus? Außerdem: Elsa bringt bei GNTM das Fass zum Überlaufen, wir freuen uns riesig auf "Too Hot To Handle: Germany" und weiterer spannender Gossip aus der Trash-Welt.
Season 10 of The Bachelor AU marches on, and it's another episode that's quite different to what we've been led to expect: Group Dates have been revamped, we're visiting the Bachelors' brand-new penthouse Bach Pad, and there's an interesting triptych structure to help us follow the action. We discuss the way the show is allowing the Bachelors to be less than perfect, unveil a fresh BoH conspiracy theory regarding some post-production trickery, and Max debuts his chilling new impression of Thomas Malucelli.

On the show today… In exciting TV news, Disney has announced a wave of local Australian content plans for its streaming service, Disney+, featuring beloved Australian creators including Miranda Tapsell, Rove McManus, and Deborah Mailman. And this week there have been a string of reports and paparazzi photos indicating that the new season of The Bachelor has started filming with not one, but two, leading men. But after an intensive investigation into these claims, we've discovered some pretty big plotholes. Plus, Victoria Beckham has given a controversial new interview to Grazia saying that thin bodies are no longer in fashion. Her comments are very much a desperate attempt to make her new collection more socially acceptable, but once you peel back the layers of what she is actually saying, it's a cry for help from both her and the industry.

BoH is back, baby! With this episode, we begin the dive into our second Ancient Kisstory miniseries, this time looking at the first ever Australian season of The Bachelor, from all the way back in 2013. We glean what we can about the origins of the local version, including the casting of 30-year-old Sydney-based chiropractor Tim Robards as the first Australian lead, and the ways that production tried to imbue this season with a touch of local flair. Plus - tons of context about the state of the country in 2013, a much-needed Bach World Catch Up, and some very necessary diversions about the fourth movies in animated movie franchises. To hear the rest of this season of Ancient Kisstory, grab two exclusive episodes per month, and to support the show, head to our brand-new page on Patreon!

This week, we've reached the endgame of Jimmy's season, and we're joined by two superstar returning guests to the podcast - musician & Twitch streamer Eilish Gilligan, and writer & Bachie recap veteran Patrick Lenton. Together, we look at everything that happened on and off the screen this week - the complex interplays of family and class, the moral responsibility of The Bachelor over the runner-up, and why a truly satisfying narrative conclusion isn't always what's best for the show. Also - were these episodes actually enjoyable? And where does the franchise go from here? Please send us your suggestions for how The Bachelor can continue to thrive in Australia by hitting the 'Message' button on our page on Anchor! Please give our beautiful guests the BoH Bump: Read Patrick's beautiful piece in The Guardian about their unlikely love story, purchase his new book 'Sexy Tales of Paleontology' via Subbed In or wherever you get books, and follow him on socials @PatrickLenton. Grab Eilish's new EP 'The First One To Leave The Party' via Bandcamp or on your streaming service of choice, catch her streaming live on Twitch, and follow her on socials @eilishgilligan.
This week, we're joined once again by the wonderful Janey Birks (Bachelor AU S4, Bachelor In Paradise AU S3, and School Captain of the Bachelor of Hearts podcast) for a spirited discussion of Hometown Week of Season 9. Jimmy and the women are drawing ever closer to the finish line, but this week thery made some important pit-stops for a cup of coffee, a little pilates, and to check out some pictures of themselves, before it's time to meet the Guard Dogs, experience some suburban horror, and of course shirtlessly ponder the horizon. Give Janey the BoH Bump: Find her on Instagram @littlejaneyjanegerous, or just ask Max for directions!
Another whopping week of Bachelor, and with no guest this week, we can really, really sink our teeth into it. Why are we meeting so many of Jimmy's family members? What attributes are these group dates actually testing for? Can you completely reinvent your reality TV character within the span of one season? What's so wrong about acknowledging you might get a few Instagram followers along the way? Also - Brooke's back, and she's brought along the #1 'In The Moment' vox-pop we've ever heard with her.
This week, we welcome the wonderful April Rose Pengilly (Neighbours) back to the podcast; a suitably monumental guest to help us navigate through an avalanche of The Bachelor. The Powers That Be opted to air two episodes back-to-back on Thursday night, so we respond with a marathon-length episode pulling apart everything that happened - including a Family Dinner where tensions build to a fever pitch, the worst single date of the season, and the shock departure of a fan favourite contestant. Also Max recites a lot of the lyrics to 'Lose Yourself'. Give April the BoH Bump: Find her on Instagram @aprilrosepengilly, and watch Neighbours on 10 Peach or 10play!

This week, we're lucky enough to be joined by singer/songwriter Imogen Clark, to discuss what The Bachelor branded as "Heart-Racing Week" - which included a few all-time great moments, but ironically slowed the character development to a crawl. We discuss Bachelor's obsession with vehicles and competence porn, the illness/injury group date strategy, 'Spirit animals', chlamydia, coulrophobia, and Where's The Gold? - plus we reckon with some more ex-Bachie anti-vax influencers. Give Imogen the BoH Bump - find her music and merch on Bandcamp, and follow her on Instagram / Twitter / Facebook.

This week, we're joined by radio host, musician, podcaster and Olympic canoer Erica Mallett (Wait, You What?) for a spirited discussion of Week 2 - the two lowest-rated (and therefore most cool and exclusive) episodes of our beloved franchise ever. It's not for lack of trying though - there's a big splashy controversy about a very naughty word, there's a big, box-office-baiting battle of superheroes, there's a parade of noteworthy fashions, there's "medieval stuff", there's a very nice dog. Plus - everybody's doing the hot new dance craze that's sweeping the nation - the Tragedy Reveal Twist. Give Erica the BoH Bump - follow her on Instagram @erica_mallett and check out her podcast, Wait, You What? wherever you found this one!
It's Week 1 of Season 9 of The Bachelor, and a little bit of reality TV comfort food is almost (almost) enough to distract us from COVID lockdowns and the rising tide of anti-vax rhetoric in our Instagram stories. We relish the highlights - our first gamer girl Bachelorette, a puppy in the confessional room, and... whatever is going on with Belinda.

This episode we are joined by the fabulous Juliette Herrera from Season 8 of The Bachelor AU! We get caught up on Juliette's life post-Bachelor, get some more insight into the events of Locky's season, and most excitingly - Juliette helps us with our traditional first impressions of the incoming crop of contestants, based on what scant info we can glean from their Tenplay bios and their Instagram pages.

This week, we’re joined by the extremely funny and talented Patrick Lenton (Junkee’s Bachelor recaps, Uncle Hercules and Other Lies) to discuss Finale Week, and all its highs and lows. Why is it so hard for Locky to say he’s in favour of feminism? How hard is it to not tell the final two you love them? Should Locky have been shot with an arrow to spice up the finale? And is the Honey Badger still canonically The Bachelor? Stick around to the end of the episode for a very special surprise for the Xavheads! Find Patrick on Twitter @PatrickLenton, Bachelor recaps at Junkee, and grab his new book Uncle Hercules and Other Lies via Subbed In!
This week we’re joined by two-time Bachie veteran Glenn Smith (Bachelorette S5, BIP S3) to recap all the action from episodes 11 and 12! We’ll get up to speed on Glenn’s life post-Paradise, find out what it means to be The Voice Of Reason on a reality TV show, and what it was like rooming with Ciarran and Carlin - plus, we relive Juliette’s iconic exit, wrestle with Bella and Irena’s fallout, say seeya to Kaitlyn, and of course, we play the new game that’s sweeping Bachelor nation: KISS OR FISH.
As restrictions began to ease in NSW, production on The Bachelor was able to recommence at the mansion, and ‘Love in Lockdown’ drew to an abrupt end. On this week’s podcast, we dig into how the staggered narrative, as well as the lack of detail & context, might be wasting one of the most interesting things to happen in the show’s history. We’re talking fourth-wall breaks; where they happen, where they don’t, and where they should - as well as some very subtle product placement, our guacamole recipes, and quite a bit of peanut butter discussion.
It's our hundredth episode, and we're celebrating with two extremely special guests! Firstly - illustrator, furry expert, and official chair of the Xavheads Evie Hilliar; and the return of fashion icon, pop culture aficionado & official fiancé-of-the-pod Danielle Gay! We hang shit on Bill Goldsmith, pair up psychic medium Alison Maiden with Human Lie Detector Steven van Aperen, and discuss the 'Real Men Eat Mild' movement, in our recap of a huge and historic week in The Bachelor. We've finally entered Lockydown, and it's frankly bewildering - but with our loungewear tips, wine decanting knowledge, and long-distance dating knowhow, we hope to help make things feel a little more normal in These Uncertain Times. It's hundo time, baby! We made it!

You can find Megan on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/meganpustetto/

It's Finale Week for Matt's season of The Bachelor, and as such, it's time for another marathon-length, meandering wrap-up podcast. We do our best to digest a finale which had a few surprises up its sleeves, as well as trying to summarise our feelings about the whole of Season 7. We discuss the largely unfair treatment of Abbie, and the way the show creates an unnecessary binary between the 'right choice' and the 'wrong choice'. We also look at how the show hides its inherent bias towards the preferences of each season's lead, what it means to say "I love you" on The Bachelor, Plus, it's been a little while since we talked about SkitHouse, so we do a few minutes on that as well.[Click here to download MP3.]
