Have you ever thought about how progressive types can stand to watch this franchise? Well Marilyn has and she decided to dive so deep in to the why and how, that she wrote her Masters dissertation about the topic! And this week she is on the podcast to talk about the the swing back we all have been feeling, why it feels good to have discourse about the shows, and the importance of movements. OH AN...

Pack your best tennis shoes y'all because we're heading to the sandy beaches of Bachelor In Paradise, and listen under no circumstances should your feet be exposed. Trust us. Also trust us when we say that Jenna, Danika, and Andrew had a blast breaking down all silly messy weirdos that have decided to brave the crab littered walking paths and sweat soaked day bed palapas to find love. Stay tuned a...

Have you ever thought about how The Bachelor and Bachelorette is a lot like a horror slasher film? In that it's a sexy elimination based competition storyline in which we, the viewer, are glued to the screen to see who the last one standing is? Well our special guest and author, Samantha Allen, has and she's on this weeks episode to talk about her bachelor-ish queer horror novel - Patricia Wants T...

I guess we just got part of a finale. As a treat. But honestly it felt like a trick. And to help Jenna break it all down she is joined by friend of the pod and 1/6th of the amazing Roses For Every Body campaign, Olivia Green. Together they weave a cautionary tale of what not to do, wether that be drive drunk with an 18 year old, try to 'win' a break up before a rose ceremony, tell a gay you're not...

Double the leads, double the fantasy suites....double your pleasure. Well...actually we're not sure we can call what happened this week pleasurable. Messy? Yes. Dramatic? Yes. A masterclass on How To Lose A Gal In 10 Days? Very much yes. And here with Jenna this week to break it all down is friend of the pod, Limi from @takethisrosepod! Oh and for Reality Steve, who clearly listens, we can provide...

The stars and moon had it out for us this week and we didn't get to record a MTA recap but instead you get to a little gossip as a treat and then a whole ass amazing bonus episode about queerness and fatness in bachelor nation, as the main course!! Recorded with our dear friend Allie in 2021. It is such a good and nuanced conversation and we are so happy the main feed gets to hear it now!! Thank y...

This week Danika and Podsband Andrew tackle hometowns while Jenna gets drunk for her birthday and sings Taylor Swift badly at karaoke. They talk about their own hometowns, the battle of the dad Italians (Rachel’s dad v Tino’s dad) (the Mario and Warri of our generation), have a serious talk about parents dying and meeting folks in the midst of all of that, and then tell like maybe three jokes. Fol...

Sorry for the late drop, we have been attaching the red strings on our Logan didn't get covid conspiracy board and we just lost track of time. But fret not lil bbs we're here and now you can kick back and listen in as we catch up on life, recap everything that disastrously happened this week on Gachel's journey to find husbands (have you tried just being gay?), and Jenna admits to selling out in a...

What happens when you have two wildly different Bachelorette leads on one season and two wildly pessimistic podcasters trying to bring nuance to an impossible show concept?? You get two canceled podcasters. JK JK But also please forgive us for this one episode, in 10 seasons, where we kinda sorta barely stand up for men. We promise to be more hateful again next week. Follow us on insta @datecardpo...

Grab your passports besties (and well as a many KN95 masks as possible) because we're boarding a cruise ship (wtf) in order to help our ladies find love! We can't see how any of this will break badly at all. nervous laughter But before a new virus gets spread aboard by these men with bad haircuts and even worse opinions, we must dissect all the juicy and dramatic moments of this week... and WOOF (...

This week we had some snafu's that lead to a non traditional recap... more of a 20 rant-cap of week 3 and some of the poopy men and then a Patreon drop of a fun bonus episode we did a few months ago! We think you'll actually find this episode pretty refreshing!! Think Winter weather and jacuzzis. Follow us on insta @datecardpod @jennawithasmile @drunkfeminist Producer: Andrew Olsen @andr0ne Art: M...

Okay okay okay we're in it NOW folks! Week 2 of Gachel's journey to find love (with each other????) is underway. Naturally that means a date that objectifies the men half naked, awkward kisses in zero gravity, and forced country pop singing by two people we have never heard of. Cheers to finding love! But really the true love forming is Danikas obsession with Gabby. Follow us on insta @datecardpod...

And just like that we're officially back in to it with cringe limo entrances, men talking over the women, and magic tricks??? Sure why not. The men really didn't impress but our stunning leads, Rachel and Gabby, sure the fuck did. With lots of shit talking, making heart eyes at each other, laughing at the expense of men, and generally controlling the environment in a way that makes us horny. Liste...

WE'RE BACK! And holy hell that was a delightful extended break. Although we didn't necessarily relax with a cocktail in hand the entire 4 months, no - one of us got married and finally consummated the dang thing nice and one of us worked on a campaign that slanders the show. Time well spent if we say so our selves! But all that aside we're back for another season of sparkling dresses, gross kissin...

What I will say…is that Cam - co host of the @whatiwillsay podcast - and Jenna have a super fun time discussing all things gay in the bachelor and celebrity realm!  We talk Bayley, queer conspiraships, the closet, community, the top 5 queerest moments in the bachelor franchise and so much more!!! It was a honor to chat with Cam and I can’t thank her enough!!  Check it out and then check out Cam’s...

We did it. Like we actually fucking did it. We made it through the last 2 1/2 months (Clayton's mess) and 16 months (non stop content) of hell. Are we in one piece? Mentally, physically, and spiritually? No (Said in Gabby). But did we have fun? You don't have the capacity to understand what we've been through (also said in Gabby). Do we have a lot of opinions? Yeah (again said in Gabby). And who e...

Just like in Beetlejuice... if you say something 3 times bad shit happens, but perhaps Clayton was too busy playing football as a youth to watch that Tim Burton classic to learn that vital lesson. Because our tall, horny, half zipper sweater wearing bachelor, couldn't stop saying the L Word (ooops wrong show but just as much drama) this week and shocker! bad shit happened. It's so messy ya'll!! Bu...

This week on The Bachelor the remaining four women take Clayton to their hometowns and they each individually try to kill him! Between chokeholds, bears, tightrope walking, and a stroll down a spider and alligator infested river...our man with too many teeth in his mouth didn't stand fucking a chance! And if those activities weren't enough to leave him crying shaking throwing up... having to meet...

Total, actual, real Therapists Jenna and Danika sit down to analyze week 7 of Clayton Echard's journey to find a woman who will validate him like his parents didn't. And gosh do we have some notes. But first we gossip about a recent bach nation break up, and Jenna debuts a new conspiracy in her irregular but often right, JANON segment. Follow us on insta @datecardpod @jennawithasmile @drunkfeminis...

The crew is back together (yay!) just in time for this season of The Bachelor to make no fucking sense! That's right Danika and Jenna are joined by Podance Andrew and we do in fact get in to it all (Clayton, buddy, what are you doing??), finally figure out who Pilot Rachel looks like, and we have a cool Vanderpump Rules crossover moment that leaves Jenna scared but intrigued. Thank you Andrew for...

Welcome back to The Bachelor! Where totally normal, chill, socially aware individuals come together for a light hearted experience that ultimately ends in a long lasting love story. JK JK welcome to the utter shit show!! air horn sounds No one knows exactly whats happening, but we know it's fucked up, and it's possible someone might die in a waterfall next week. Thankfully we are blessed with a sp...

Hope you didn't fill up on all the shrimp from last week, because kraft services is back and the drama is SHELLacious! I'm sorry. But i'm not sorry about our guest this week! Ash (from Ash Talks Bach) is back to break down the shellfish (sorry) antics of Shrimpnae and how it affected the women and our himbo Clayton, amongst other Bachelor Nation prawnblems. Okay I will stop now. Thank you again so...

This week while the beloved Danika celebrates her Birthday (love you), Jenna is joined by bachelor commentator friend and fellow meme maker Ariana Wu from @bachelor.realitea! We talk about the art form that is bachelor meme creating, catch up on some light gossip, and recap all that happened in week three of Clayton's journey to find his perfect shrimp cooker. Throw another one on the barbie bitch...

And just like that...(omg is any one watching that and want to dm with Jenna about it?!?) we are off to the races! And by that we mean it's the first real week of dates for our himbo tree of a man with bad fashion. We get some randomly constructed group dates, a classic over the top one on one, and not one but TWO villains. What a BOGO sale! So sit back and relax as your annoying gay hosts recap,...

After a refreshing crisp one week break WE'RE BACK (despite pleas from our loved ones) to recap Clayton Echards season of The Bachelor. Who's Clayton you ask? Well he's of course just a small town guy who likes to fuck and collect quarters. So now that you know all you need to know about our 26th Bachelor sit back as Jenna and Danika break down the night one arrivals, night one self eliminations,...
