Rosecast | 'Bachelor' Recaps with Rim and AB Rim and AB

First things first: There was seismic news this week regarding the upcoming season of The Bachelorette. If you do not know this news and want to enter the season completely and totally unspoiled, we suggest you skip to at least the 16:00 minute mark.


Ali's season though, huh? What a love story. "Rated-R" was there for the Rated WRONG reasons after all, haha. And Frank, how did that cutie let Ali slip away? Rim and AB put aside the man drama to discuss another classic Bachelor season.

Brad Womack's two stints as the Bachelor may not have ended happily ever after, but his seasons did provide plenty of discussion-worthy moments. Plus: Not one, not two, but *three* future Bachelorettes.

It's not just the baggy suits -- the first seasons of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette were totally different than the shows we watch today. We discuss the breakneck pace at which Alex and Trista narrowed down their potential mates and the fact that just about everyone involved wasn't entirely sure what was going on most of the time.

(Full disclosure/inside baseball: Here's the deal...when we initially recorded this episode, Rim had just upgraded some software which reset some items to their default settings, resulting in a nearly unlistenable file. So Rim re-recorded his parts, which means he had to pretend as if he was conversing with AB in real time when in fact he was not. The result is a subpar episode, plain and simple. I'm embarrassed by it, and frankly I won't blame you if you skip it. In any event, thank you for your patience. We'll be back to normal for the next episode.)

Revisiting JoJo's (mostly) fairy tale season made Rim and AB realize how wrong we were about nearly the entire cast from 2016. Plus: Who's really the next Bachelor here, Tyler or "Tyler's friend" Matt?

Ben's season was the first Rim and AB watched together back in 2016, so we hold the respectful lead in high regard. How does it hold up? We discuss Rim's full rewatch and this week's truncated Bachelor GOAT episode featuring a whole lot of Zoom and not enough footage.

Kaitlyn's season ended with a beautiful engagement...though you'd never know it from this week's GOAT episode. We discuss the two-Bachelorette night one gimmick, Nick Viall's mid-season entry, the absence of Shawn Booth's proposal, and much more. Plus: Reaction to the huge BN announcement — Matt James is our next Bachelor.


(Stat corrections: Rim messed up a few items this week, chief among them the fact that there were two one-on-one dates between the time Nick received his first rose in New York City and when he had his first one-on-one date with Kaitlyn in Ireland.)
