The Golden Divorce (Emergency Minisode!)

April 15, 2024 11:42 - 31 minutes - 43.3 MB

The marriage between the first ever Golden Bachelor couple, Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist, has ended. We rushed to the mics to debrief in this emergency minisode. Back to Kelce next week. We'll get through this together.

181. There's Nothing Funny About LMFAO w/ Lauren Guerrera! (Catching Kelce S1 E5)

April 07, 2024 00:05 - 1 hour - 160 MB

Party Rock is on the pod tonight?! This week, we're joined by LMFAO expert Lauren Guerrera for a discussion of an unexpected high point for Catching Kelce - a trip to the Party Rock Mansion. As Travis himself gets slightly lost between the cracks, we find joy in an impassioned defence of Violet Beauregarde, a meticulously detailed research dossier, and a new game called Two Fooths and a Lie.

180. The Twerk Is Mightier Than The Sword (Catching Kelce S1 E4)

March 31, 2024 05:54 - 1 hour - 104 MB

Beep boop! This week Travis Kelce enters cyberspace, and drags several women into the digital world with him. While some women receive a high-tech kiss, others barely escape with all their bits intact. We consider what lessons Catching Kelce may have learned from GamerGate (if any), bone up on the history of the touchdown dance, and eagerly anticipate a more exciting episode next week.

179. Air Dud (Catching Kelce S1 E3)

March 22, 2024 07:49 - 1 hour - 107 MB

This week, Catching Kelce begins a somewhat awkward transition from its cut-throat beginnings to the more character-focused, relationship-based show it will become. Max intrigues Xavy with tales of butt fumbling, banana baseball, and lingerie football, while Xavy offers thoughts about the Catching Kelce theme song, a discussion of Mop Guys, and a new game called What Dog. All this, plus an extended Fabio deep-dive courtesy of past and future guest Dr. Jodi McAlister.

178. Alive and Posting w/ Eilish Gilligan! (Catching Kelce S1 E2)

March 15, 2024 01:23 - 1 hour - 74.7 MB

We're back for Catching Kelce episode 2, and joining us in the huddle this week is musician, pop culture journalist and BoH all-star Eilish Gilligan! The personalities and storylines of this season are starting to take shape - we've got an potential frontrunner, we've got a big weird conflict, we've got whatever "BBBs" are. Who better than us three himbologists to discuss Travis' delicate balance of hot and ick, uncover a conspiracy around a secret message, and try not to fall into a great...

177. Fabio Pigeon Girl Incident (Catching Kelce S1 E1)

March 08, 2024 07:30 - 1 hour - 81.9 MB

The whistle blows, and regular season play begins - in week 1 of Catching Kelce, Travis narrowed down his pool of fifty women to just fifteen in a brutal round of cuts. We analyse the plays made on the first episode to determine which women deserved a touchdown, and which deserved to much-frown (due to not being picked). We're lucky enough to be joined by Travis Kelce as a special in-studio guest - plus, Max lists all the dud states, Xav recounts a bird-related mishap, and we learn to mix ...

176. Introduction (Catching Kelce Preview Special)

February 27, 2024 00:08 - 1 hour - 83.4 MB

Go long! (We sure did). The Bachelor of Hearts podcast is back with a new mini-series, in which we'll be covering the 2016 E! reality series Catching Kelce, which follows Kansas City Chiefs' superstar tight end Travis Kelce's attempt to find love from a pool of 50 women. In this preview episode, we cover the 25-minute preview special, and set the scene with all the necessary context (who's Taylor Swift, anyway?) - what the world looked like in 2016, what a tight end is, and of course, a deta...

175. Smellen Collie (A State of the Nation Special)

February 15, 2024 06:12 - 1 hour - 70.3 MB

It's time to sit down and have a think about where things are going. On this episode, our second-ever 'State of the Nation' address, we take stock of where the world of The Bachelor AU is right now - hanging a little delicately, perhaps, but not without hope. We suggest some ideas to help the show back on its feet, and pitch some new reality shows of our own. We also take an exciting look at what's ahead for BoH, including some rough plans for the rest of the year, and the announcement of t...

174. Confettaphor (The Golden Wedding)

January 24, 2024 00:51 - 1 hour - 107 MB

Well - they did it! Gerry and Theresa's "Golden Wedding", the spon-con-laden, filler-stuffed 2-hour 'live' TV special, went off mostly without a hitch - but did it need to exist? We perform the much-needed audio autopsy to find out. Note - there's a slight audio issue on this episode, please pretend you do not hear it!

173. Ring Camera (The Golden Bachelor S1 E9)

January 07, 2024 10:31 - 1 hour - 94.3 MB

Arriving at exactly the right time, it's our Golden Bachelor finale recap podcast - in which we lovingly detail the nail-biting conclusion to Gerry's quest for love. Gerry's twisted himself up in knots telling multiple women he's in love with them - is there any way for him to stick the landing? Who will he end up having just recently married at the Golden Wedding? And can we stop talking about buttholes long enough to tell you about it?

172. Like One Season In One Day (The Bachelor[s] AU S11 E10-12)

December 24, 2023 09:17 - 3 hours - 186 MB

We're tackling the last three episodes of this wild season all in one go - so strap down your precariously positioned pot plants, gather up a few stray geese, jot down a few hundred words on a scrap of printer paper, and prepare for the best. Which Bachelors emerge unscathed? Which women were we cheering for? (hint: all of them) And do we really have to talk about Baby one more time? From an unexpected (and unexpectable) gift, to a purchase previously thought impossible, to a running time th...

171. Make Out or Break Out (The Bachelor[s] S11 E8-9)

December 20, 2023 11:11 - 2 hours - 125 MB

It's a pivotal pair of episodes as we wriggle closer to finale, with giddy highs (Wesley and Brea breaking format and technically making Bachelor history, a much-needed and well-earned boat date, and an unexpected crossover with Dr. Pimple Popper) as well as undeniable lows (Episode 8). Please send us your mnemonics to help us remember what floor food to eat. We'll be back again soon with our coverage of the rest of the season - plus Max says we'll be doing a whole episode about Ballina, s...

170. Is It Fragrant w/ Imogen Clark! (The Bachelor[s] AU S11 E6-7)

December 16, 2023 07:01 - 1 hour - 97.7 MB

This episode, we're joined once again by wonderful musician, friend, and certified Ben hater Imogen Clark to discuss The Bachelors Australia episodes 6 and 7 - which featured the usual drama about who's receiving flowers, but also new drama about when flowers are being received. Plus a dangle-date conspiracy, another complicated admission (and subsequent expectation) from Wes, and a Pretty Woman date that gets worse the more you think about it. Please enjoy our expert body language analysis...

169. Missed Bit Potential (The Bachelor[s] AU S11 E5)

December 12, 2023 12:25 - 1 hour - 84.5 MB

Any podcast born after 2015 can't cook... all they know is point out visible boom mic, correct handsome idiot on art history, investigate the acting career of Big Brother Australia 2005 evictee Simon Deering, try and work out the difference between "person" and "human", look up prices of hot chip & lie. We're back with a one-off recap of Episode 5 - which included a crashed group date, a little bit of culture at the NGV, and a vow of celibacy.

168. FINGERS w/ Abigail Harley! (The Bachelor[s] AU S11 E3-4)

December 11, 2023 01:39 - 2 hours - 112 MB

JINGIES! We are so thrilled to welcome back the absolutely crunching Abigail "Big Gail" Harley (The Bachelor[s] Season 10, or, *sigh* 1) back to the pod!! We propose a toast(er) to B.G.'s new squeeze, before diving into a raucous recap of two episodes that began with a love bomb-y love-note, through dates with various degrees of hauntedness, and ended in a cowardly act of deception. Sounds pretty juicy, right? All this, plus rhyming slang, gollies, and the ascent of Beefy Luke. Give Big Ga...

167. What’s Upcycling With You? (The Bachelor[s] AU S11 E2)

December 05, 2023 13:31 - 1 hour - 86.8 MB

Welcome quack to the BoH podcast! On this episode, we're diving deep on Episode 2 of The Bachelors Australia S11/2, which contained numerous deep-dives of its own, as well as two ducks, five swans, a pelican, a whirly-bird, and (not quite) a Gosling. We're a partridge short of a carol here, although two of this season's birds will get a peck before the night is through. Plus - Max celebrates a successful called shot, Xavy maps out some Melbourne geography, and we delight in the surprise ret...

166. Slooooow Mooooo (The Bachelor[s] AU S11 E1)

December 04, 2023 09:12 - 1 hour - 97.3 MB

Also, what's Bridgerton? Plus, you'll meet all (some?) of the key players from the show's "Most Romantic™️ Season" yet. Also - Christian Swear Words, a Ting expose, and which one of these women will initiate World War III, darl...

165. Make Up Artists (The Bachelor[s] AU S11 Preview)

November 28, 2023 22:06 - 1 hour - 244 MB

This week on BoH, we're taking a detailed look at the 24 women who'll be entering the fray when the new season of The Bachelors Australia starts this weekend. Xavy puts their official cast bio analysis hat on, and Max sniffs around the dark and dusty alleyways of the internet searching for buried treasure. It's a fully off-leash deep-dive into weird made-up job titles, German TV, Mr. Lambo, juice addiction, and horse creation software. Stick around to the end for our totally unqualified pre...

164. Grumble (Golden Bachelor S1 E8)

November 25, 2023 06:30 - 2 hours - 112 MB

This week, we're both back in action for a simply staggering week of Golden Bachelor. It's Fuck Week - the official celebration of permitted primetime porking, which prompts potentially painful pratfalls from the show's pension-eligible patriarch. We bear witness to the first ever Golden 69, find out how birds have sex, and struggle to agree on our predictions for the finale.

163. Gerry 'Time' Turner (Golden Bachelor S1 E7: The Women Tell All)

November 15, 2023 04:55 - 31 minutes - 28.9 MB

This week, XRN has been struck down by covid-19, so MQ is handily filling in the gaps, for the traditional not-quite-an-episode of the series: The Women Tell All. There's not All that much for the Women to Tell this time around, as drama has served as a garnish to the other festivities this season. However, we do find out our Final Two, as Gerry surprises us with his choice of evictee, and Max reflects on their less-than-ideal ending. Plus: gas chat, six inches become eight, and of course, w...

162. Manic Pixie Farm Girl w/ Annemarie Navar-Gill & Carrie Rosen! (Golden Bachelor S1 E6)

November 08, 2023 11:20 - 2 hours - 111 MB

This week, it's the greatest crossover event in Bachelor podcasting history, as we're joined by Annemarie Navar-Gill and Carrie Rosen, hosts of Bachelor in Retrospect, to recap Gerry's Hometowns episode. We do our best to unpick the show's cliffhanger ending, and stop down for every granular regional detail along the way. Will Slider get in shape before summer? Does The Golden Commissioner deserve our endorsement? And did Gerry fake the moon landing? Give Annemarie and Carrie the BoH Bump...

161. Cone Dog (Golden Bachelor S1 E5)

November 03, 2023 01:12 - 1 hour - 104 MB

'Twas the week before Hometowns and all through the Mansion, the final 6 hope Gerry will meet their grandson. (Not the best rhyme, I'm sorry). This week, the women present their case for why they deserve to be in the top 3, leading to some incredible gameplay & heart-melting declarations of love. Plus - we discuss some breaking pop-culture news thanks to past & future guest Imogen Clark, Maxy Needs A Recipe, we go deep on Hannah Montana: The Movie: The Game, and we plan a live podcast in Pig...

160. Runaway Brine w/ Jodi McAlister! (Golden Bachelor S1 E4)

October 28, 2023 07:57 - 2 hours - 147 MB

This EEK, we're joined by author, academic and Bachie AU icon Jodi McAlister for our annual arbitrarily Halloween-themed episode, Dracula of Haunts Laments: Screamer Shudders! Join us for a spirited discussion of The Golden Bachelor's fourth week, which included an exciting pickleball group date, the season's first declaration of love, and visits from the franchise's past and future. Jodi shares heaps of expertise about the archetypes of romantic fiction, mentionitis, and misattribution of ...

159. Hot Baby (Golden Bachelor S1 E3)

October 21, 2023 04:31 - 1 hour - 78.4 MB

This week, we're a little distracted by some baby news on Bachelor in Paradise, but we still find time for some research into Joan's hometown, memories of Listen To Your Heart, and the shortest Single Date we've ever seen. Plus, we genuinely enjoy some poetry, marvel at the gentlest dibber-dobbing in franchise history, and learn what a hoo-ha is. (None of our business).

158. Big Fat Tears w/ Bella Johnston! (Golden Bachelor S1 E2)

October 14, 2023 04:32 - 1 hour - 86 MB

This week on BoH: Senior Studies, we're joined by the iconic Bella Johnston (The Bachelor[s] AU Season 10) to recap Week 2 of The Golden Bachelor - which features the women's arrival at the mansion, a toe-tapping Single Date, and a handful of instances of good grief. Bella shares her experiences with mansion life, trauma bonding, crafting perfect Bachie fits and being papped in the nude. Plus - a biscuit DM slide, the mysterious disappearance of Marina, and the warm embrace of a familiar Gro...

157. Big Tongues w/ Alisha Aitken-Radburn! (Golden Bachelor S1 E1)

October 08, 2023 06:06 - 2 hours - 128 MB

This week, we're joined by returning guest Alisha Aitken-Radburn to officially kick off our coverage of the first ever season of The Golden Bachelor! We get the lowdown on Alisha's great new memoirThe Villain Edit, before diving deep into the limo entrances and shock Night 1 farewells of a pretty stunning episode of television. Plus - we practice our Gerry impressions, we debate the one "little droplet of cruelty" in the episode, and Max tells us about trombones. (Editors' note - the Golden...

156. Step-Doodle (The Golden Bachelor Preview)

September 29, 2023 11:30 - 2 hours - 122 MB

Bachelor of Hearts Presents: Senior Studies is finally here! In this series, we'll be looking at the inaugural season of The Golden Bachelor as it airs in the US - a series which marks the first time in Bachelor history that a cast has been exclusively made up of people aged 60 years and over. In advance of the first episode, we put our Professional Bachelor Journalist caps on to find out all we can about the 22 beautiful women who'll be competing for the heart of Gerry Turner (and of course...

155. Crazy Frog Wedding

September 15, 2023 05:28 - 1 hour - 104 MB

The BoH babys are BACK with a brand-new episode covering a scattershot grab-bag of extremely important topics! First of all, we're officially announcing that we will be covering The Golden Bachelor when it begins airing in the US at the end of September. We also detail some BoH-adjacent books and music we've been enjoying, dig into a red-hot crematorium scandal, and try and determine where 90s hitmakers The Offspring stand on trans rights. Plus, we catch up on recent weddings, product launch...

154. Three More Of Them (Th3 Bach3lors First Impr3ssions 2.0)

July 24, 2023 06:20 - 1 hour - 92.7 MB

Well, it's certainly a choice (again). This episode features our initial reactions to the announcement that Season 11 of The Bachelor Australia will again feature three leads: Wesley Senna Cortes, Ben Waddell, and Luke Bateman. XRN is going in cold (well, actually, going in 'stomach virus'), but MQ has prepared a detailed dossier on the three new Bachelors - so join us as we dig deeper than anyone could reasonably expect us to in order to find out whether any of these guys are interesting en...

153. To Results (FBOY Island AU S1 E9-10)

July 02, 2023 04:13 - 1 hour - 95.4 MB

What's up bug dicks! The FBoy Island gods have blessed us with a combination Fuck Week and Finale Week, so we dig in to all the action, including a twist ending that served as another huge highlight of the season. Plus - what's going on with Cory? Which ex-Bachelor was caught up in a gangland shooting this week? And has a DJ ever had sex?

152. Baked Potato (FBOY Island AU S1 E7-8)

June 25, 2023 05:09 - 1 hour - 89.3 MB

This week, we grapple with how the show recovered from a staggering cliffhanger, as the men's true natures (or at least their declared plans for the prize money) have become a matter of public record. Plus - a spirited discussion about kink, a flat-out disagreement about the respective A-Boy and F-Boy of the week, and flowers for Gold Logie nominee Osher Gunsberg. We're also inspired by a scene-stealing and potentially chances-ruining sunburn to introduce a new segment honouring the contesta...

151. Hey Babe, Eu Rope? (FBOY Island AU S1 E5-6)

June 18, 2023 08:23 - 1 hour - 99.6 MB

This week, we tackle the biggest Australian Reality TV Cliffhanger in YEARS, and go All In on predicting who (and who isn’t!) an FBoy. Plus, do any of these men have talent? Can you win over your crush just by holding out chicken nuggets in front of them? And what should we make of Vernon’s Big Reveal? Join us @bohpod on social media to continue the conversation!

150. Fboy OnLand (FBOY Island AU S1 E3-4)

June 11, 2023 06:37 - 1 hour - 92.8 MB

This week, we're back discussing FBOY Island Australia, and even though it's only week 2, we've already seen several game-breakingly unexpected events that require our analysis. What happens when a Nice Guy is cast away and then resurrected? And just what is an "intruder" when it comes to reality TV? All this plus our awards for F Boy of the week, A Boy of the week, and much much more. All this plus Xavier presents a brief history of pieing, we reminisce about the deeply cursed British dati...

May 23, 2023 07:03 - 3 hours - 169 MB

In this extra-length episode, we report on three rumoured leads for the now-confirmed Bachelor AU S11, touch base about MILF Manor, and make an important announcement about what we'll be covering on the podcast next. But the meat of this episode comes when we decide to create the perfect application for The Bachelor. We go step-by-step through the exhaustive online application process, shaping and moulding the truth using our years of experience to create the ideal semi-fictional contestant.

February 03, 2023 00:58 - 28 minutes - 65.2 MB

145. The Men's Singles (The Bachelor[s] AU S10 E12)

January 31, 2023 00:54 - 1 hour - 103 MB

Well, I don't know what we expected. On this episode, we recap a suitably bugnuts finale to match a completely chaotic season of television. This episode featured some of the strangest and most memorable moments of any Bachelor season we can remember - from Thomas' abrupt final dismissal, to the first ever accepted proposal on an Australian Bachelor show, to a last-minute drone invasion. We also give an update on where everyone's at now, over six months since the season wrapped. Plus, Maxy'...

144. Speaking Of Segways... (The Bachelor[s] AU S10 E10-11)

January 27, 2023 04:46 - 2 hours - 144 MB

We're at the very tail end of 'Finals Week', and in a move that definitely has nothing to do with budget restraints, the show has decided to combine Hometowns with the Meet The Parents (as well as a drop-in from the dreaded Fourth Bachelor) into one great big calamitous clusterfuck. We sat down to record right after Episode 11 aired to figure out how ready (or not ready) everyone seems to be to get engaged, we try and get our heads around Thomas' desire to "create life from scratch", and gra...

143. Cat Soup (The Bachelor[s] AU S10 E8-9)

January 24, 2023 03:02 - 2 hours - 139 MB

In another gut-reaction podcast recorded straight after the 9th episode of The Bachelors, we remain remarkably on track and tangent-free as we go deep on Jed's songwriting process, Felix's narrative of personal growth, the mishandling of several key participants' storylines this season. We do make some brief stops along the way to discuss our kebab shop orders, Muppets, Rob Zombie, dipping sauces, and Xavier debuts their long-gestating Thomas impression.

142. Sex Dolphins (The Bachelor[s] AU S10 E6-7)

January 22, 2023 10:44 - 2 hours - 137 MB

We're back back back again, and on this episode we’re doing our best to wrap our heads around the central polyamory storyline between Jess, Felix and the now-just-fully-on-the-show-I-guess Damien. Plus, we compare Tilly's characterisation to that of Abbie Chatfield on Matt Agnew's season, and we analyse the "growth" that Thomas is looking for in his relationship. Also, Max establishes a hierarchy of horniness, we consider some of the most average music we've ever heard, and we wait patiently ...

141. I Declare A Tongue War (The Bachelor[s] AU S10 E4-5)

January 17, 2023 08:04 - 2 hours - 121 MB

They've bloody gone and done it. They've put four episodes of The Bachelors out in a row. With a steadily rising current of Bachelor content lapping at our feet, we're up Bach creek without a paddle, and forced to try and recap the show on the fly. We discuss the fallout from Tash's brief reign as the show's villain, Felix's continuing acts of mouth-based violence, and of course we debate how the hell an adult man could have no clue how to make a cup of tea. Plus - is it all getting a bit to...

140. Tash Rash (The Bachelor[s] AU S10 E3)

January 13, 2023 22:00 - 2 hours - 117 MB

Swings and rollercoasters take centre stage on a stomach-churning episode of The Bachelors, predicated on Drama At All Costs - as Tash reveals Jess' non-monogamous relationship as well as Jasmine's activity on OnlyFans, the mansion is sent into a loop-de-loop. Is that how you spell that? Get in line for an episode where we pull apart the complex social machinations of the Bachelor mansion to see if they need repairing. Plus - our exhaustive Instagram data tracking has produced a pretty wild s...

139. A Boner You Can't Refuse (The Bachelor[s] AU S10 E2)

January 10, 2023 05:53 - 1 hour - 95.1 MB

Season 10 of The Bachelor AU marches on, and it's another episode that's quite different to what we've been led to expect: Group Dates have been revamped, we're visiting the Bachelors' brand-new penthouse Bach Pad, and there's an interesting triptych structure to help us follow the action. We discuss the way the show is allowing the Bachelors to be less than perfect, unveil a fresh BoH conspiracy theory regarding some post-production trickery, and Max debuts his chilling new impression of Th...

138. The Swoon Landing Was Faked (The Bachelor[s] AU S10 E1)

January 09, 2023 00:01 - 1 hour - 86.9 MB

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 ensure this is the differentest season yet. THREE Bachelors. THIRTY roses. THREE HUNDRED MILLIO...
