Recap of Bachelor in Paradise (Season 4, Episode Nine)

The finale of Bachelor in Paradise is here and we're ready for it! The Bros (and their wives) have been dutifully watching and reporting on Bachelor shows for nine months now and it's all built up to this!

Tune in and find answers to questions like...

  • What do we think about the new Bachelor?
  • Do our Canadian listeners claim Daniel as one of their own?
  • Why does Lacey believe the things that Daniel says?
  • Why does Robby think that Amanda is interested in him?
  • What's really going on with Robby's hair?
  • Do we care about Corinne and DeMario anymore? (Hint: No.)
  • Is Dean still a Dean-Hole? (Hint: Yes!)
  • When "Scallop-Fingers" goes home, where does she go?
  • Is Raven really into Adam?
  • Are the twins just trying to grab every moment in the spotlight they can before their time runs out? (Hint: Duh!)

PLUS... stay tuned after for some dumb bonus content of the Bros singing poorly.

All this and oh so much more on this episode of Bros Before Rose!

Recap of Bachelor in Paradise (Season 4, Episodes Seven and Eight)

 We couldn't decide on one title, so we chose two! As Paradise begins to wind down, we get two new suitors (who are not long for Paradise!), a rose ceremony, a few new ladies and Jack Stone gets to make out with a lot of girls!

Also, Dean is still the worst. (Such a Dean-Hole!!!)

PLUS... we've got a bonus Skype interview with the winner of this week's Instagram contest and our official fact-finder/fan/friend, Abbie P. from Indiana!

(Just out of curiosity, is anybody reading these show notes? If you are, let us know!)

Recap of Bachelor in Paradise (Season 4, Episodes Five and Six)

Dean is the worst. (We even turned him into a curse-word!) If saying that here isn't very convincing, listen to this episode to learn why he's the worst as well as:

  • Why Jack Stone is less creepy with a blindfold on!
  • Why it's totally natural for Christen to lead with her V card! (Hint: It's not!)
  • How Jasmine is incredibly mature and able to move on from situations without fixating on them at all! (Hint: She's not!)
  • Why it's CRAZY that Matt is stealing girls in Paradise!
  • How "Scallop Fingers" might be the dumbest nickname ever!
  • The acrostic that the letters in Dean's name make!
  • Also, an idea for a new Etsy shop! (Cross Stitch Acrostics. anyone???)
  • Why it's INSANE that Sarah and Alexis went home while Lacey and Jasmine are still there!
  • Why, even though Dean is pretty much the worst person ever, Kristina has to take some responsibility for the situation!
  • Why Daniel's unpredictability is amazing! 
  • How Canadia is, apparently, not a place.
  • How Daniel being the result of intercourse between a Mexican wrestler and a Teletubby makes more sense than anything he's ever said!
  • Why we can't understand the appeal of the Tickle Monster!

PLUS... a new Fan of the Week, emails from fans and a brand new Instagram contest that could get YOU on the show next week!!!

Recap of Bachelor in Paradise (Season 4, Episodes Three and Four)

More Paradise this week as we head back to Mexico for some truly awkward encounters and cringe inducing moments including...

  • Dean proving that the one way you can screw up your awesome reputation is to treat an orphan poorly!
  • Adam showing up to destabilize the balance of power!
  • Robbie wearing a hat (yea!) and then taking it off (boo!).
  • Kristina trying to talk to Dean and Dean responding that he needs to take a shower!
  • Adam getting attacked by a GIANT BAT-MOTH!
  • Raven brings back the "ride or die!"
  • Ben Z. keeps talking about his dog! (And then he talks about his dog some more!)
  • Alex hits on EVERY GIRL in an attempt to get a rose!
  • Dean gives D-Lo a 1/2 birthday cake right in front of Kristina!
  • Sarah thinks she's in a Nicholas Sparks novel, not realizing that this would mean that one of them is dying!
  • Nobody wants to date Lacey!
  • Diggy bails on Lacey for Dominique 11 minutes after their date together!

But it wasn't all bad! The ending with Danielle and Wells was the highlight of our Bachelor lives!

Recap of Bachelor in Paradise (Season 4, Episodes One and Two)

This is it... the moment we've been waiting for since this podcast began! The premiere of Bachelor In Paradise! The Bros and their wives are back to recap each episode starting with these first two that... well, they don't fit the normal BIP roadmap!

Hear thoughts on...

  • How we believe Dean and Kristina are perfect for each other (so it will never work out!)
  • How weird it is to see the DeMario/Corinne train speeding down the tracks when we already know the destination!
  • How we REALLY hope that Wells (who isn't there for love) is the one who leaves with love!
  • How unaware Iggy is about... well, pretty much everything!
  • How (before everything went down) DeMario's whistle was the new Josh's pizza!
  • How much we LOVE Evan and Carli (mostly Carli) and really enjoyed their wedding even though it was filler!
  • How Jasmine scares us!
  • How Jack "The Ripper" Stone scares us!
  • How Jack and Jasmine maybe should be together!
  • How there was so much to comment on that we're running out of room here!

Recap of The Bachelorette (Season 13, Episode Eleven)

"Although we've come... to the end of the road... still I can't let go..." Boyz II Men

Well, we came to the end of the road for this season, but after what we just saw, we're pretty glad to let go! The title pretty much sums it up! After a season of rooting for Rachel and believing in her, she really just ended up letting us down!

Join us as we share...

  • Why we're so excited for Bachelor In Paradise!
  • Our thoughts on the Fantasy Dorm Room that Peter and Rachel shared!
  • How cooking bacon without a shirt is dangerous!
  • The point at which we realized that the producers had duped us into watching the finale and After the Final Rose at the same time!
  • Why Rachel was wearing chainmail to the final Rose Ceremony.
  • How we think Eric looks better with a beard!
  • The point at which we realized that Rachel is being questionable.
  • The point at which we all completely abandoned Team Rachel!
  • Our belief that Peter was not only completely justified in his beliefs, but that he was possibly the only rational person ever to be on this show!
  • Why we're so excited for Bachelor in Paradise!

Recap of The Bachelorette (Season 13, Episode Eight)

All four of us in a room recording together again! It's so wonderful... until it gets super awkward on one of the Home Town Dates!!! Matt and Jeff and Shara and Stacy (when she's awake!) chime in on one of the most awkward moments in Bachelor history and come to realizations like...

- A former Bachelorette contestant (who just went home LAST WEEK!) is one of our Fans of the Week!

- Eric thinks so highly of himself that he gave himself the nickname, "E-Bigger!"

- It's good to explain to people what you mean when you tell them you love them.

- We still don't like Brian.

- Or Eric. (Sorry... that's E-Bigger.)

- Brian's mom is cray-cray!

- Rachel doesn't realize that Brian's mom is serious when she threatens to kill her!

- Peter may have been adopted.

- We visit Dean's dad for no good reason and put him through a horrific experience that doesn't belong on this show.

- Rachel makes the first decision that makes us question whether we like her.

- We're VERY excited for the return of Bachelor in Paradise!

Recap of The Bachelorette (Season 13, Episode Seven)

Jeff is back!!! (Woo hoo!) But Shara is gone! (RIP) The Bros (plus Stacy) soldier on through this episode of craziness and seek answers to questions like...

- Is a broken fire hydrant a main attraction in Geneva, Switzerland?

- Do the producers of The Bachelorette not know how to properly mount a GoPro after all this time?

- Does Brian really want to consume all of Rachel?

- Why can't contestants on this show ever do simple math?

- Has Dean been dumb this whole time and we just missed it?

- If Rachel has to choose between keeping Eric, Matt and Adam... does it really matter?

- How does Adam think he has a shot at this? (Seriously.)

- Why can't any of us possibly care about any of the words coming out of Adam's mouth?

Recap of The Bachelorette (Season 13, Episodes Five AND Six)

With Jeff out for the week, Matt finally gives Stacy and Shara their own mics and the three of them cover 4 full hours of The Bachelorette this week! (Though, like Corinne at a Rose Ceremony, Stacy napped her way through much of the recap!) With so much ridiculousness to cover, you know it's gonna be a good time as they address questions such as...

- How is Matt still here?

- Why is Lee the worst person on the face of the planet?

- Is it "Wiking" or "Viking???"

- How come, even though the 2-on-1 date is formulaic, it's always amazing?

- Does Ikea provide all the furniture for all of Sweden, or do they just get their inspiration from Swedish furniture?

- What is it that makes Kenny the most legit dad around?

- If we have a dude and two ladies hosting, is it still Bros Before Rose???

Recap of The Bachelorette (Season 13, Episode Three)

Umm... when did The Bachelorette turn into The Beverly Hillbillies??? Things got weird as we saw mud wrestling, horses in stores and lots of pole dancing/stripping going on! Matt and Jeff (or "Jeff and Matt" if you ask Jeff*) share their thoughts on topics including:

- Why they continue to LOVE Rachel so much!

- Matt's theory on Blake and Lucas!

- Alex peed in the pool!?!?

- Poor Fred's heartbreaking dismissal!

- Horses + Rodeo Drive + Expensive Shops = NOT A THING!!!

- Sprinkles cupcakes vs. Nothing Bundt Cakes!

- Matt, Jeff, Stacy and Shara's first kisses! (They were just about as awkward as poor Fred's with Rachel.)

- Whether Anthony is boring or just normal!

- The fact that Jack Stone shall henceforth be known as "Jack The Ripper!"

* Guess who writes these descriptions!

Recap of The Bachelorette (Season 13, Episode One)

We're back!!!! After a lackluster season of The Bachelor (so long, Nick!), we've got Rachel in all her awesomeness and a bunch of dudes and their varying degrees of awesomeness (or not-so-awesomeness in some cases)! Join Matt and Jeff as they attempt to answer questions like:

- Is Rachel really a lawyer or does she just play one on TV?

- Why does Alex bring a vacuum and dance through several scenes of the episode with it?

- Was Adam's doll from the New Orleans haunted house of last season?

- Is Brian's attempt to swallow Rachel whole better than Nick's vertical kissing issue?

- Is it helpful or hurtful for Tesla to do product placement on this show?

- Why do some people actually think that the Backstreet Boys are better than N'Sync?

- Is Lucas ("Mr. Waboom") this season's Corrine? (He does seem to be the worst!)

Recap of The Bachelor (Season 21, Episode Twelve)

 This is it! The big season finale of The Bachelor! Did Nick find love? Did he choose Raven or Vanessa? And is that person the winner or the loser? The Bros got together with 30 or 40 of their closest friends (including several winners from our social media contests!) for a Final Rose Viewing Party and found answers to these questions (and more!):

- Has Nick been on The Bachelor before? (It wasn't clear.)

- Why does Vanessa always seem like she's just figuring out how this show works?

- Does Nick have an elvish heritage?

- What happens when everyone in Finland starts crying at the same time?

- Is that what made Santa Claus show up?

- When did The Bachelor potentially "jump the shark?"

- Do Nick and Neil Lane hang out in the free time now that they're clearly BFFs?

- Does Raven take a stiletto to Nick's face?

- Did the surprise start to Rachel's season of The Bachelorette already ruin it?

Plus, our thoughts on Nick's final choice and an announcement about whether or not we'll be back next season! (HINT: We will!)

Recap of The Bachelor (Season 21, Episode Eleven)

That's right... ONE day, TWO episodes! It's The Women Tell All... or "most" as Jeff pointed out. Matt and Jeff try to make sense of the chaos of this brouhaha and make some provide a critical analysis of situations and confrontations including:

- Chris Harrison finally earning his paycheck by playing referee to the craziness!

- Corinne fighting with Taylor fighting with Corinne fighting with Taylor fighting with...

- Wondering who, exactly, is Elizabeth? (We have no recollection of this person.)

- Seeing another side to Liz! (These girls really love her!)

- The compare/contrast of Kristina and everything else going on here.

- Corrine's masterful manipulation of Taylor and the audience.

- Alexis' constant surprise and delight to find that she's on TV! (We love her!)

- Wondering who, exactly, is Lacey? (We have no recollection of this person.)

- The realization that we all want a Raquel in our lives!

Plus, the guys pick their favorite bloopers from the season and get excited about Rachel's future as The Bachelorette!

Recap of The Bachelor (Season 21, Episode Ten)

After last week's short, uneventful episode (of The Bachelor, not Bros Before Rose... we were still awesome!), Nick Viall and Co are back in the freezing cold tundra of Finland with progressively more torturous dates leading to the final two Fantasy Suite overnights. In this episode of the podcast...

- Matt points out what's wrong with the name of our Finnish locale!

- The group bemoans Raven's ridiculous romcom musical montage and the loss of any semblance of subtly!

- Everyone makes fun of cross-country skiing (except for Stacy... who used to be a cross-country skier)!

- Jeff averts his eyes as Nick's shorts get shorter than ever (and tighter too)!

- Nick gets an emoji named after him!

- Shara coins the phrase "Finlandian Romper" as she pinpoints the moment she knew Rachel was going home. (Though we're pretty sure the word is "Finnish.")

Also, we announce the winners of our "Final Rose Viewing Party Contest!"

Recap of The Bachelor (Season 21, Episode Nine)

Well, that was weird! This oddly shortened episode of The Bachelor featured the return of Bachelorette Andi Dorfman (why?!??!), a trip to Finland (why!?!?), a giant turtleneck monster (why!?!?) and Raven sharing far too much information at very odd moments (why!?!?!). Oh yeah... AND CORINNE WENT HOME!!!! (We know why!) Matt and Jeff investigate conspiracy theories and propose answers to questions such as...

- After disappearing from the show so often, should Chris Harrison have to reintroduce himself when he shows up now?

- Why are Andi and Nick such bad actors?

- After many seasons of avoiding it, why are people on the show suddenly so comfortable talking about their sex lives?

- What will the inevitable inclusion of Corinne on Bachelor in Paradise bring to the show?

- Can Nick fly a helicopter? (No. No he cannot.)

- How does the awkwardness of Nick's turtleneck, plus the awkwardness of Nick talking through his smile, plus the awkwardness of Nick's vertical kisses equal love???

Also, we remind you to enter to win an invite to our Final Rose Viewing Party on Instagram and Facebook!!!

Recap of The Bachelor (Season 21, Episode Eight)

It's Home Town week and Nick heads off on four VERY different adventures! From muddin' in Arkansas (it's a thing!), to church in Dallas, to oh-so-much shopping in Miami, to some very tense family conversations in Montreal, this week's episode had all kinds of crazy going on! Plus... WE FINALLY MEET RAQUEL!!!! On the podcast, the Bros toss out some thoughts and theories including answers to questions like:

- Is Raven's brother really a cop? (Or did he just get a used uniform from Goodwill?)

- How can you tell the difference between a real church service and a staged one?

- What elements of Corinne's Home Town Visit screamed, "RUN AWAY!" (There were a few!)

- What is the surprising formula for the perfect romantic moment we learned from Nick's visit to Hoxie?

- Are Corinne's dad's olives actually "world-famous?" (Or should we say, "Raquel's olives???")

- What element of Vanessa's Home Town Visit screamed "RUN AWAY!" (There was just one.)

- Why can't Matt remember that Vanessa's name is Vanessa and not Danielle???

- Why does ABC not treat its viewers well??? (We call BS on the promotion and ending of this episode!)

PLUS... we announce the winner of our "Double Date with the Bros" contest AND we announce our next contest!

All this and oh so much more on this episode of Bros Before Rose!

Recap of The Bachelor (Season 21, Episode Seven)

And we're off to the island of Bimini! (Where???) With the number of girls dwindling and Nick's shorts getting shorter and shorter by the minute, Matt and Jeff (with some help from their wives) will help you find answers to questions like...

- Why would someone say "Nothing could go wrong!" when we all know better?

- Where exactly is Bimini?

- How is it possible that Corinne hasn't yet had a one-on-one date? (And yet it feels like she's had ten!)

- Where does Chris Harrison go when he's gone? (HINT: It may involve one of our contestants!)

- How is Raven suddenly the smartest and most empathetic person on this show and how didn't we see that coming?

- What other things are platinum besides... never mind.

PLUS... OUR FIRST SOCIAL MEDIA CONTEST FOR A HUGE PRIZE!!!!

- Mathematical formulas for understanding The Bachelor

- Three opportunities for new Go Fund Me campaigns

- Highlights of the strange editing choices in this episode

Recap of The Bachelor (Season 21, Episode Five)

This week's episode of The Bachelor jumps RIGHT back into the Corinne v. Taylor drama and takes Nick and the girls to New Orleans and down on the bayou for some truly ridiculous moments that only The Bachelor can supply. Matt & Jeff try to make sense of it all and answer questions like...

- Doesn't Taylor have some sort of degree in psychology? Could she not put that to use in this situation?

- Why, for the love of all that is good and right in the world, would Nick send Sarah home??? (We love you, Sarah!)

- Can our listeners help us campaign to get Sarah to come on our show??? (Hint: Yes... yes YOU can!)

- Why is the "Two-On-One" the date Matt looks forward to each season?

- Why don't more sponsors trust Matt & Jeff with their advertisements?

- Have the producers run out of good ideas for group dates? (This was one of the worst!)

- Is Corinne really capable of eating ALL of the room service she ordered???

- Should Corinne ever say "Make America Corinne Again?" (No... she should not!)

- Who will win in the "Green Lantern vs. Deadpool" face-off happening in Nick's soul this season?

- In the annual abandonment of a contestant in a remote location contest, who will be left behind... and will she stay there???

So many questions... so many answers! All this and oh so much more on this episode of Bros Before Rose!

Recap of The Bachelor (Season 21, Episode Four)

The bouncy house drama picks right up right where it left off last week as we jump right into a Rose Ceremony and a confrontation between Corinne and the other ladies. Matt and Jeff give their thoughts on that and attempt to answer questions like... 

 - How can Corinne keep a straight face when she says, "I am not privileged in any way shape or form?"

-  Why is Alexis the greatest source of comic relief on this show? (Answer: Nic Cage and aliens... and ghosts)

-  Is milking cows and scooping poop(y) romantic?

-  Should we start a charity to support Corinne's "medical condition?"

-  What was the most offensive thing Nick has done on this show? (According to Matt.)

-  Who is Chris Lane?

-  Why is eating sushi the opposite of working on a farm?

-  How many effs does Taylor give?

And, we get to the bottom of the most important question of all...

"What, exactly, is SO Raven???"

So many questions... so many answers! All this and oh so much more on this episode of Bros Before Rose!

Recap of The Bachelor (Season 21, Episode Three)

And we're off to the races from the first minute of this crazy episode with a Rose Ceremony featuring a Bachelor first! Matt and Jeff (with some help from their insightful wives!) attempt to answer these questions (and more!):

-  Who is the girl in the yellow dress? (No... seriously. We have no idea.)

-  Does Nick have a backbone? (Like... at all?)

-  Is sleeping a better choice than going to a Rose Ceremony?

-  What happens when you combine a trench coat, a giant pillow in the front yard and a censored can of Redi Wip? (HINT: Nothing good!)

-  What is "planned dancing" and why is Corinne so bad at it?

-  Is "cheese pasta" a superior name for Mac & Cheese?

-  What current political landmine did we come dangerously close to discussing?

-  Who would win in a Death Match between Corinne and Taylor???

-  How old were these girls when the Backstreet Boys were a thing?

-  Is there wisdom in confronting Nick to blame him for all of your insecurities? (HINT: Nope!)

-  Why is Vanessa the most impressive woman in the house? (And possibly in Bachelor history.)

So many questions... so many answers! All this and oh so much more on this episode of Bros Before Rose!
