It's episode 7 of BIP 2025. Karen is solo this week and... I am full of rage on Bailey's behalf. I find I'm not all that great at ranting on a solo podcast- bear with me as I seek to express my indignation at "bro code" disguised as integrity. I'll probably get mad all over again next week when Kayleigh returns and we can finally discuss the utter nonsense. Bailey finally learns that Jeremy is a horrible person who didn't bother to tell her that he's jonesing for Susie even while ripping Bailey to shreds for going on a date with Andrew. Bailey never deserved this and deserves better. *eye-splitting rage resumes*

Bachelor in Paradise 2025 episode 6. Karen is gone so Kayleigh is flying solo! Some couples are getting stronger and some are definitely showing some cracks. And someone needs to tell Bailey that Jeremy is into Susie more than her.

It's the fifth episode of Bachelor in Paradise 2025 and Karen & Kayleigh are here to tell you all about it. Jill gives up on being Sean's reserve team. The Birds of Paradise 'chemistry test' looks like a grade-school halloween party gone rogue -- and the winners don't even win all that much. And Dale, who just told Kat yet again that he has no reason to look elsewhere, is looking elsewhere every time a new woman arrives on the beach. But he's forgiven because of the body shot he did with April. Thanks, Dale, for making dreams come true.

The Goldens show up and it's time to party like its 1999. Dale and Kat get into a never-ending fight. Jonathon is team Golden. What a wild season this is shaping up to be.

Bachelor in Paradise 2025 episode 4

It’s episodes 2 and 3 of Bachelor in Paradise 2025: Justin is bringing peak Justin, the (g)oldens hit the sand - Karen & Kayleigh are here to lead you through the rubble.

We’re talking missed connections, mixed signals, a buffet of regrets-- complete with a side of secrets. And let's not forget the horror-movie-dream-sequence-advert created specifically to sell us a new "I know what you did last summer".

Five hours of TV that feels a little bit like eating sugar-coated gravel—we watched it all so you don’t have to.

It's 2025 and Bachelor in Paradise is finally back on our screens! Karen & Kayleigh are here to tell you all about it.

Karen & Kayleigh are here to tell you what you already knew-- Golden Bachelorette Joan Vassos picked Chock Chapple as her future partner in the Golden Bachelorette season finale. Was it great to have a happy ending? Absolutely.

It has been such a joy for Kayleigh and I to talk about the Bachelor franchise these past 4 years (and 15 seasons!) -- an idea that was born during the pandemic which deepened our friendship and taught us new skills. We still love this very flawed franchise, in spite of itself, and look forward to rooting for future Golden contestants. And we aren't finished with podcasting! We are going to continue watching and discussing the Golden seasons, and we have big plans to come back in 2025 with some new ideas, too. If you stay subscribed to the podcast, you'll be alerted once we have a new series uploaded - easy peasy.

Kayleigh and I also thank the many individuals who have taken the chance to find love (and a new career as an influencer) on the many versions of the Bachelor: thank you for entertaining us! --karen

Karen & Kayleigh are here for the bromance! It's the Golden Bachelorette Men Tell All reunion. It's the episode of brotherly love - and it was a delightful jaunt down memory lane. I don't know about you, but I needed some joy this week and I was able to find it here. If you need an additional incentive to watch, the Los Angeles Gay Men's Chorus performed Cap'n Kim's new hit single: We Are the Mansion Men. (also, seeing Kim do yoga in some previously unaired footage was also quite riveting) All in all, it was wonderful to have another visit with all of our favorite tv best friends, and to know that I am not alone in my deep love of Charles.
