Reality of the Rose

Michelle continues to impress even though the dates themselves and some of the guys do not.  We have clear front runners and clear villains and very clear jacket drama.  Join me won't you as we recap this week's episode and make my predications for top 6.

On this episode of Reality of the Rose we break down episode 2 of Michelle's season.  We have some 5th graders that steal the show, we have an argument that I don't believe really happened, we have Jamie who confuses me so much, and we have the amazing Michelle that handles every second with poise, class and calm.  Join me won't you as we break it all down! Intro music, www.bensound.com,...

Its episode 1 of the 18th season of the Bachelorette and I do not think Michelle is going to disappoint!  She steals the night with her confidence and calm and she has quite an interesting line up of guys including the already named next Bachelor Clayton.  Join me won't you as we break down the limo entrances, the men themselves and what is supposed to be a "shocking" twist with one of t...

Since there is no show to recap this week, I decided to give you my thoughts and perspectives on what seems to becoming a rejected narrative on the Bachelor franchise and the shows it produces.  Times have changed in 2002 and even though the show has embraced some societal changes it is completely opposed to accepting other changes as time evolves, mainly with social media.  Join me won'...

Tonight's BIP finale was full of break-ups (lots of them), one bromance (best part of the whole show) and 3 engagements (with lots of make outs and I love you's in between).  We could have probably fit this easily into 2 hours instead of 3 but join me won't you as I recap the finale of BIP!

This episode was full of odd and strange happenings.  We have some moments that made me say, what??? We had some moments that were uber cringeworthy.  We had probably the worst prom ever.  We have the poor people who had to be chosen as last ones to hit sand.  And we have Natasha disappearing right under my nose.  This was an interesting one and one that made me go hmmmm?!...

This week's episode I start with a deeper dive into this season and my thoughts on it, as well as discussing the reliable leak on the new Bachelor and how that new transitions into the changes I think need to happen with Bachelor Nation.  After my tangent, I break down this week's episode that includes departures, more new arrivals, discussions with Tia's vagina, a disappointing tropical stor...

On this week's episode of BIP, we get rid of quite a few problematic people, we bring in the new host we've been waiting for, and we welcome some new male additions to the beach.  Join me won't you for this week's breakdown of our favorite beach antics. Intro music, www.bensound.com  "Happy Rock"

This week was crazy!  My jaw dropped when I witnessed the conversations that went down between Brendan and Pieper and I have a lot to say about it.  I also give my full analysis of Demi and her kinda crazy behavior, but also love what a class act we get to see in Becca.  A lot was packed into the two episodes this week and I would love it if you joined me in breaking it all down! In...

On this week's episode I break down episodes 4 and 5 of BIP.  There is so much that happens and we get two new and AMAZING players arrive, Becca and Tia!  We also have all kinds of love triangles, more of Demi's annoying voice, a little naked volleyball, and me being scared of a potential mouse in my room.  Join me for it all won't you? Intro music  www.bensound.com  "Happ...

This week on BIP we had TWO nights of shows...4 hours.  As usual there was all the drama, tears, corny jokes and making out that one would expect from our fave Bachelor show.  Tonight I was so happy to have my daughter, Allie, break it down with me.  Join us won't you, as we give you all our thoughts and judgments on this week's episodes! Intro Music  www.bensound.com  "Ha...

On this episode of Reality of the Rose I break down the first episode of BIP!  There are soooo many people, it's hard to keep track.  This first episode is mainly introducing us to the the players and setting up some storylines, but it's gonna be goooood!!

It's Katie's finale and I'm here to break it down with you.  We hear there are big surprises, but turns out not so much.  Join me as I talk about Blake's proposal, poor Justin and his B role in this show, and most importantly how the Greg vs. Katie battle plays out.  This is the conclusion of what we are hoping is the last bubble season, so join me won't you? Intro music www.bensoun...

There's not a whole lot to break down on the hometown episode tonight EXCEPT for Greg's complete breakdown and, quite honestly, at the same time, very strategic game play.  I cover it all and get quite in depth on how on the gaslighting that was suffered by poor Katie.  Join me as I discuss it, won't you?

I'm so excited about this episode!  I am visiting home this week and thought it would be so fun to have my mom as a guest host.  She agreed, so listen as she breaks down the Men Tell All with me!  The best part is the she does NOT watch the show, so hearing her perspective is priceless.  You'll hear about someone that she does NOT like, but I LOVE.  You'll hear her predict...

On this episode, I highlight episode 6 and breakdown episode 7.  These episodes contain some surprises, some awkwardness, some wannabe romcom scenes, and a whole lot of "let's please leave this bubble season" dates!  I give my honest opinion and don't hold back.  Join me won't you? Intro music www.bensound.com  "Happy Rock"

On this week's recap we see what a struggle it is for producer's to try and make these bubble seasons interesting.  This one involves hearts, hot tubs, horses and the new villain, now that the other two have left, Hunter.  Hear my take on how this season is playing out...join me won't you?

Today's episode features my first ever podcast guest, which is my daughter Allie Sprink!  She is also the voice of my intro in case you were unaware. This podcast gives a unique perspective from Allie's point of view because she is currently not a regular watcher, but has watched it in the past.  We break down the episode which is full of the name Thomas and Blake.  It was so much f...

We get tears coming at us from all angles tonight and Nick Viall has a hand in that.  Thomas breaks open a topic not so openly discussed on the show before.  Michael surprises us on his one on one.  And I discuss how this resort might be more than just a resort.  Join me won't you, as I break down episode 3 of Katie's season of the Bachelorette!

On this episode I discuss a disorder I suffer from on Does Anyone Ever.  I talk more on Katie's guys and some predictions I have for a handful of them.  Then I go through a few of the latest Bachelorette promos released on Instagram over the last week, and analyze how they may predict the game.  Join me won't you, and listen to the last episode before the PREMIERE OF THE BACHELORETT...

This week's Does Anyone Else has to do with what happens when I've had too much coffee before a flight.  After that I discuss a super strange IG story by Pilot Pete's mom, KB's big anniversary, and then I breakdown a 10 slide IG Bachelorette post, slide by slide.  I discuss the similarities between another recent post and an old Sears photo studio, and I finish off talking a little about...

My new intro music is very me, but more importantly it contains the voice of the creator of the intro...my daughter Allie Sprink!  Today I have a "Does Anyone Else" issue to discuss that questions my being high maintenance.  I have a new show recommendation for you on HBO Max, and I dig a little bit into Bachelorette Katie's social media and my take on how her post filming social media d...

This week I start a new segment called Does Anyone Else, I talk about Katie's upcoming season, the obvious theme they are going with for her, and my thoughts on her new IG promos.  I also discuss a little about Michelle's upcoming season and thoughts on a new host.  I share a BIP rumor and give a few thoughts on Rachel Lindsay leaving Bachelor Happy Hour.  Join me, won't you?
