Randos In Paradise (Bachelor In Paradise Ep. 1)

The show we’ve been waiting for is finally here. Paradise is already proving it has superior mess and drama that we cannot wait to watch. When you go on Paradise you’re there to either make or break your reputation. And let’s just say, a few people have already made it clear they are there to ruin theirs. Kay and Jared plan out a foolproof way to get through the first week as a contestant, you're welcome for the free advice. They also discuss the day one connections, the deal with the older contestants, and what their hopes for the “life-changing twist”.

We Were On A Break (Rachel & Gabby Season Finale Pt. 2)

Jesse Palmer was a week too early hyping up the drama, but it finally arrived. We’ve waited what felt like years for said drama, and it did not disappoint. We got proposals, we got breakups, we even got cheating. After a long season of lackluster relationships, Gabby finally gets her ring and Rachel gets her time in the spotlight. For the grand finale, they announced the most cliché man as our next Bachelor – Zach! The announcement basically had Kay begging for a recount. Kay and Jared swap theories on what happened behind the scenes with Rachel and Tino, share ideas on who the next Bachelor should have been, and as always, play a round of would you rather, fantasy suites/hometowns/send home, and weekly awards.

The Jesse Who Cried Drama (Rachel & Gabby Season Finale Pt. 1)

We finally got to watch the life-changing episode they promised us, and let’s just say it fell a little short of life-changing. Watching this live finale, in the words of Zach, “it was tough”. We had contestants self-eliminating, a surprisingly happy Tony, Grandpa John, and just a sprinkle of drama. For “the most dramatic finale ever” it really wasn’t that dramatic. Kay and Jared go into detail and share their thoughts on who is coming out of this with a ring on their finger. They finish off the episode with their usual rounds of would you rather, fantasy suites/hometowns/send home, and weekly awards. Plus they dive into the preview for next week’s episode.

Less Than Fantasy Suites (Rachel & Gabby Eps 9 &10)

We finally made it to fantasy suites where we are gifted a two episode week. Night one we follow the dates of Gabby & Erich, Rachel & Aven, Rachel & Tino, and Gabby & Johnny. The second night we get an hour of Gabby & Jason, a little bit of Rachel & Zach, and a whole lot of unresolved drama that Jesse so graciously said we have to wait to see. Thanks Jesse! Its finally getting good and we have to wait! Kay and Jared discuss Gabby being left with – sorry, choosing, Erich and who they think would be the best fit for Rachel. They finish off the episode with their usual rounds of would you rather, fantasy suites/hometowns/send home, and weekly awards.

Produce Tips Ft. Grocery Store Joe & Serena

On this bonus episode, Jared talks with Grocery Store Joe (@joeamabile1) and Serena Pitt (@serena_pitt) about their experience on The Bachelor and all things grocery. We get the inside scoop on what happens after the show wraps up – secret vacations and fancy Airbnbs, who knew? Jared also decided Joe’s life story needs to be a Hallmark movie and the plot just writes itself. He also jumps on the chance to talk grocery store comparisons and gets exclusive tips on how to pick the best produce. We also got the first official announcement of the wedding plans – at least the plans Joe has been telling everyone. Follow @thebetchelor to stay up to date with all things Gabby and Rachel.

The Men Tell Ads (Rachel & Gabby Ep 8)

We were promised Men Tell All, instead we got ads, a hometown, and more ads. Starting the episode with a hometown was definitely out of place, but it somehow made the episode worth watching? Otherwise it would have been two straight hours of infomercials. The lack of villain appearances made it a relatively undramatic Men Tell All, which is not surprising based on the rest of the season. Roby was giving fan energy, Logan acting like he won the season, and Nate gave the performance of his life making use no one could poke a hole in his story. The grand finale – Meatball sticking to his sauce bit once again. Kay and Jared talk bloopers, glow ups, and finish with would you rather, fantasy suites/hometowns/send home, and awards.

Hometowns! With Special Guest Star, David Puddy! (Rachel & Gabby Ep 7)

We made it to hometowns – Jared’s favorite episode of the season. We managed to get more emotion packed into one episode than we have the whole season. Jared and Kay talk through each guy’s hometown date, most of them were your typical Bachelorette style visit. But every year there is always one family that surprises us. This year that award went to Tino. Jared presents his theory behind what happened with the off-putting interaction while diving into how it could have been better. As always, the episode finishes with would you rather, fantasy suites/hometowns/send home, and awards. Follow @thebetchelor to stay up to date with all things Gabby and Rachel.

Seems Like The Math Is Mathing Ft. @BachelorData

On this bonus episode, Kay and Jared talk numbers with Suzana Somers of @BachelorData. Somehow Suzana figured out a way to make Excel entertaining, and guess what – it includes the Bachelor. Who gained the most followers? How much screentime does each contestant get? How many canceled cocktail parties were there? These are the hard-hitting questions and she’s got all the answers. Bachelor Data might be spoiler-free, but she does have some tea and theories that are worth diving into. Kay’s biggest question - what does the data says about who she should be hanging out with on the weekends? Follow @thebetchelor to stay up to date with all things Gabby and Rachel.

Double The Girls, Half The Fun (Rachel & Gabby Ep 6)

One week until hometowns! Don’t worry, we’re just as surprised and confused as you. Jared doesn’t feel comfortable meeting the families yet - we still don’t know anything about these guys! The lack of drama has really created a lack of interest in this two bachelorette format. We’ve got Nate who didn’t fight to stay and Tino getting a little too worked up after not getting the group date rose, but still very little drama. The previews promised us a part two to the Logan show, but what did we get? Covid. Well Logan got Covid, we just had to piece the puzzle together to figure out that he left. Kay and Jared talk favorites (of lack thereof), villains, and play a round of our favorite games. Follow @thebetchelor to stay up to date with all things Gabby and Rachel!

The Ol’ Switcheroo (Rachel and Gabby Ep 5)

Somehow we’re only 2 episodes away from hometowns… but this week is apparently Logan week. ICYMI Logan is switching teams from Rachel to Gabby—‘the ol’ switcheroo’ as Jared puts it. And, Kay is so done with the Rachel sob story. Another rejection doesn’t warrant a canceled group date. Then, J and Kay discuss how Rachel and Gabby are the epitome of dating tropes: Rachel’s the disheartened dater who wants to be Cinderella, while Gabby’s the ‘chill girl’ who somehow knows how to handle everything. But, J and Kay wonder…can you be too chill? In Jared’s words, Gabby put together a team of ‘elm trees’ as her suitors. IMO, height puts blinders on personalities—how can you see when you’re trapped in the middle of the elm forest anyway? Look up Gabby - he’s lying to your face. Seriously though, what’s the deal with Johnny? He didn’t give us much. On the other hand, Rachel wants Mr.Right to pick her so badly, it’s inevitable that she’ll end up with Mr.Wrong. Finally, J and Kay finish up with the usual games of Would Your Rather & Fantasy Suite, Hometowns, Send Home. Follow @thebetchelor to stay up to date with all things Gabby and Rachel.

The Bar Is In Hell Ft. Brendan Scanzano (Rachel and Gabby Ep 4)

It finally feels like we aren’t making things up as we go along. This week Kay and guest host Brendan Scanzano get into the details of who’s gonna make it and who needs to just go home. Rachel and Gabby head to Paris where they have their one-on-ones with Tino and Jason, all seems to go according to plan. Later we get two separate group dates, somehow both of them turn out to be all about Rachel. But the real tragedy was having to watch Rachel’s group date, unless you’re Kay who was kinda into it. Meatball tattletales on Hayden and Hayden therefor, walks the plank. Rachel sends him home after a half-assed heartfelt story about his dog. He somehow couldn’t understand that him going home wasn’t about the dog, but more about the amount of times the producers had to censor his choice words about Rachel and Gabby.

Little Miss Rough Around The Edges (Rachel and Gabby Ep 3)

Three weeks in and we finally have a clue of how this season is going to work… kinda. Rachel and Zach match personalities (or lack thereof) on their movie premiere date and producers use one of their lifelines to call in Grandpa John for Gabby and Erich’s bowling date. Kay and Jared want to know why we’re doing one-on-ones when we still have no idea who half these guys are. Maybe if they invite them all to a giant photoshoot wearing costumes, they’ll get to know them better? Lucky for us, Bachelor icon Franco (who?) is there to photograph the whole thing. At the end of the date, we have men coming out of the woodwork to tell Gabby “It’s not me, it’s you.” Hayden goes as far as saying she’s a little “rough around the edges.” Yet we have Rachel on the Rachel show crying because a few guys turned her down. Jesse announces enough is enough and the men must pick a side. Once again, we have another moment wondering if this is all improv. Finally, J and Kay wrap things up with some games: F*ck Marry Kill Fantasy-Suites edition, Top Picks, IG Rising Star, Cringe Harrison Award, and their Roses for the week.

The Frat Mansion & The Ladies Lair (Rachel & Gabby Ep 2)

Welcome to frat mansion! Except at this frat party the ratio is slightly better than most. Two whole women! While the ladies have their very own lair this season, it also pays homage to the OG bachelor with zero-gravity and helicopter hot-tub dates. But Jared and Kay want to know more about Rachel and Gabby’s deliberation process. How do they decide who goes home and who gets a rose? In their lair? Then, Jared and Kay take a dive (lol) into the Speedo pageant. Rachel and Gabby want to see abs & so does Jared—duh. Next, they talk about Meatball Guy—dude you gotta have a second act. We also find out that the second you choose a woman, you’re kinda stuck. Unless you’re Logan, and you don’t choose. Ever. Meanwhile Nate has a daughter? And a dangling earring? Also, what’s up with Jordan V? No more strategy gatekeeping ABC! We want to see some two-on-two dates. Finally, J and Kay wrap things up with some games: F*ck Marry Kill Fantasy-Suites edition, Top Picks, IG Rising Star, Cringe Harrison Award, and their Roses for the week.

Breaking Down The Bros: Part 2 (Rachel & Gabby Season)

ICYMI Jared and Kay have been combing through cast pictures and descriptions of Gabby and Rachel’s contestants for the season. In this episode, starting with Joey (#12 on ABC's Bachelorette 'Meet the Cast'), they finish up what they started last week. From the male twins on the show, to Johnny The Rapper (and scammer), to Disney channel original series looks, to the Van life, Jared and Kay get into it all. Jared and Kay even debate about Roby the magician’s magical potential. After all, if he’s a 6, but he’s a Magician, he might trick Gabby and Rachel into being a 10, and avoid being sent home on night one. Jared & Kay even discuss the new Minions movie fad (the ‘shock’ of Jared’s life: this is what single men are up to these days?). Plus, Jared shares his selfish dream of buying a second home and his candidacy for the next Bachelorette season (write in to help him with his profile).
