Date Card So Below Media

While we are on break from our usual polyamorous dating show (the bachelor) Olivia and I finally got to sit down and watch Couple To Throuple and dish about it! From the premise to the jealousy dynamics, and everything in between we get in to it and get frankly pretty deep.

Thank you Olivia make sure you follow her at @oliviazgphotography

In honor of Pride Month I have collaborated with myself to take advantage of...I mean celebrate... my own community by having a month of fruity podcast fun!! Starting off with my interview with the authors of the new book Here For The Wrong Reasons, Annabel Paulsen and Lydia Wang! It is a sapphic romance novel that takes place on the set of a Bachelor style dating show and ya'll it is EVERYTHING TO ME! It was so cool talk to them about queer themes in our fave show, the writing process, and their OWN friends to lovers tale. You can buy the book at the link below!!

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!

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

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.

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! Follow her @epiphanyxiann
