Bachelor of Hearts

It's finally time - the long-awaited tenth season of The Bachelor has emerged from its extended primordial slumber, and we are here to pull apart all the juicy details of the very first episode. Luck (and our wonderful community) placed the first two episodes into our eagerly outstretched hands a little early, which means we've had ample time to chew over all the changes the producers have made to...

This week, on our last episode of Bachelor of Hearts Presents: ScholarShip, we're discussing the final two weeks of The Real Love Boat AU, and as we draw towards the end, the boat show has changed its flavour quite dramatically, and we're still deciding whether or not we're on board. We revisit the way the show has dealt with its story threads, including the last-minute revelation of a cash prize,...

This week, it's a real loosey-goosey podcast - two shorter episodes left us feeling a little high and dry, so we focused mainly on issuing our verdict on Osher Gunsberg's new hairdo, ruminating a little more on our forthcoming Grifter Bachelor, and Max's recent experience with the Flauna. But back on the ship - we learn not to talk to Moana or Courtney after they've had their morning coffee, we wo...

This EEK, it's time once again for our annual arbitrarily Halloween-themed episode - Dracula of Haunts Presents: Scholar Ghost Ship ! We're joined by an extra special 'geist - from the cast of this very season of Aaaahh!!! Real Love Boat Australia, it's Tyler Grayling ! We go in depth about her time on the show and what it's been like watching back, before diving deep into the (extremely terrifyin...

An exciting pair of episodes on The Real Love Boat AU give us plenty to dig into. We rank the top 5 most Italian pieces of music, relitigate the events of Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, and marvel at Naomi's big hat. Max shares some juicy substitute teacher stories, we talk about sidecars, and we tip our hats to the two new women on board the boat.

On this week's episode of BoH Presents: ScholarShip , we cast our lines into the stormy waters of Week 2 of The Real Love Boat AU. Tensions are rising on board the Boat - while some relationships seem to be going swimmingly, competitiveness and jealousy are circling like sharks. We join the discussion about the overlap between reality TV villains and celebrity boxing match participants, propose a...

Toot toot! All aboard, passengers, and welcome to a brand-new miniseries: Bachelor of Hearts Presents: ScholarShip! Over the next few weeks we'll be diving deep into Channel 10's new dating show, The Real Love Boat Australia . We look into how this show came to be, how it became the de facto replacement for The Bachelor/ette in 2022, and what chance we think it has of staying afloat in the ra...

In this emergency mini-episode, we discuss two equally important new developments from the last week. Firstly - The Bachelors has been pushed back to 2023 - so we speculate about what might have gone wrong, and start the conversation about what this will mean for the podcast. And perhaps more importantly, we discovered a Flintstones rap album from 1994, called something along the lines of "The Fli...

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 tr...

Brooke Blurton's season of The Bachelorette has come to a close, and the BoH boys are here to break down a fantastic finale week in rigorous detail. We talk about how these episodes subverted our expectations by not subverting our expectations, while still providing space for some incredible moments that are unlike anything we've ever seen before. We heap praise on guests Amy Thunig and Abbie Chat...

We engage in some art criticism, discuss some interesting family dynamics, and eulogise some beloved fan faves. Plus, we rip into some pretty big topics - how important is having a car...

This week, we're joined once again by Friend Of The Pod Abby Butler (triple j! social media superstar!) for a recap of a single-episode week, which, despite its lack of content, gave us quite a lot to chew on. A Mardi Gras At The SCG group date, a bewildering Paramount sponcon single date, and a couple of intruders (one small and very cold, one very loud and with a big orange wig). Plus, we wildly...
