Hold on tight and take this ride with us as we embark on operation find a decent husband in this bunch of men for Jojo!

Finale night! We sat thru three hours of Bachelor coverage because let's face it - we love it! Tonight we sat thru those three hours in order to find out who will it be - Lauren of JoJo to win the heart of one Ben Higgins? Its been nearly three months since we met a group of lovely ladies and we find ourselves now in Jamaica for the meet the parents moment, last dates and decisions. Antonella rejoins the crew of Lauren (the real Lauren) and Renita to dissect the I Love Yous, the you're my person business, and the lack of a synonyms for "crazy". We'll also briefly recapped what you missed about the Women Tell All episode so if you'd like to skip right to finale only action skip ahead to about the 10:30ish mark. You're welcome. And thanks again for listening friends!

The absolute most dramatic episode yet of the Bachelor obvs calls for a super dose of hostesses! Not 1! Not 2! But Renita and Lauren are reunited with Antonella to recap for your listening pleasure, this week's Bachelor. After hometowns we pick up with Ben and the last three ladies standing in beautiful Jamaica for fantasy suite week. Who will forgo separate rooms and join Ben for potential hot sex on a platter? Who will say I love you? Spoiler alert: EVERYBODY!

Holy cow! Hometown week is here! Hometown week is here! Run and shout it from the rooftops. Renita and Lauren are back guiding you the time honored tradition of taking awkward trips to multiple girl's homes to meet the parents. This episode is by far one of the most dramatic ones yet. Even if dramatic is pretty much the standard every damn week. Come won't you? And let us visit Dallas, Portland, Laguna Beach and Ohio. If this sounds like the best reality sitcom ever, its because it is.

Friends! You're back and so are Renita and Lauren and this narrowing group of ladies of Ben's. We find our bachelor and the six remaining young ladies in Warsaw, Indiana. There will be boat rides, a carnival and hoops of course. A lucky lady or Ben enjoys a date at Wrigley field, another quality visiting some of Ben's old stomping grounds in Warsaw. One very lucky lady - or is she?- gets the ultimate hometown visit with Ben and his parents. We are nearly at the end of this thing. Listen to what you missed!

Goodbye Mexico City! Hello Bahamas. So, we're more than half way thru the season now. Whoa! This definitely was the most dramatic episode ever! Join Renita and Lauren as they recap Ben and his dates in the Caribbean. Deep sea fishing, swimming with pigs and the dreaded yet Bachelor season favorite - the two on one date in which someone is inevitably left in a remote area/land or sea all alone. One of the ladies makes a shocking move and immediately blows it. We'll rank our top three as per the usual.

Viva la Mexico! We rejoin Ben and the lovely ladies still remaining in beautiful Mexico City! Having just fled Sin City, what possible shenanigans can we hope to see in Mexico? Listen in as Renita and Lauren recap a hot air balloon ride, fashion week runaway walks and Mexican cuisine. One lady implodes and makes a surprise exit, another is exposed for behavior unbecoming. Will Ben give up on them or do they live to see another rose ceremony? Oh there will be drama on what proves to be one of the most dramatic episodes ever!

We're back with a jam packed episode. If you're two weeks behind on your Bachelor - then we are the super geniuses who've put together the highlights from both weeks three and four. Booyahh! (Everything in my being tells me to not write out deliciously corny words exactly the way I'm thinking them but I cannot help myself) If you are pissed that we effed up and audio from the episode we recorded of episode three was botched and didn't show up on time - skip ahead to about the 33:20 mark to join the recap of episode four in progress. Anywho - we're going to Vegas! Vegas - and yet we stop short of saying every wonderful line from Swingers. The girls are super stoked to join Ben in Sin City for shows, romantic dates that start aboard the oft used Bachelor helicopter and possibly a wedding?

Hitting their stride in episode two of Bachelor Ben's season, Lauren and Renita are back with ever colorful commentary and definitive opinions of this lovely bunch of maiden hopefuls. Come along for a listen won't you? We'll join our first real week of dates including a trip back to high school, a real life ride along with Kevin Hart and Ice Cube (how terribly crazy is it seeing Cube on the effin Bachelor?), and a date involving a would be doctor love in a fake lab, sniffing the ladies and making out at the Four Seasons. If all of that does not sound undeniably titillating, we also offer psycho-analysis of the crazy and a helpline for our bachelor's pool of ladies and/or podcast listeners.

We are looking live! Back for not just any season of the Bachelor but the season 20 premiere. And though my loafing usual cohost, Ant, has literally just labored and birthed a human almost during airing. Never fear. Lauren, a friend of ours and a friend of the Red Rose Recap has graciously accepted the task, nay, mission to see that the show goes on. We'll get a look at our new Bachelor Ben, his hometown, parents and of course the ladies. There will be unicorns, hover boards, red velvet and lots of Laurens. Like A LOT of Laurens. So many that we will heretofore call our Lauren L. Boogie. Stay with us this season - its gonna be a thrill!

Renita and Ant are back to recap The Men Tell All penultimate-ish episode. Which in Ant's words the men really tell nothing. We recap anyway because that's what we're here for and that's how we're used. Come and take a look back with us on the gentleman who sought out Bachelorette Kaitlyn's hand in marriage or at least a romp pre/during/post fantasy suite dates.

Yep! We're back and we're still covering Kaitlyn's adventures in Ireland. Ren and Ant are back recapping all the happenings of these last few dates and action leading up to more action in the fantasy suites and hometown visits. This week, Shawn B., Ben H. and Nick vie for final two and before we get to that, there's confrontations, tears, horseback riding, cursing, kissing and probably more sex. Not necessarily in that order. Join us friends!

After a shakeup announcement of the order of hometowns and fantasy suites we continue on this journey to love in Dublin. A couple one on one dates, an epic three on 1 (insert joke here) and the beginning of the sought after more intimate fantasy suites. Could one of the remaining gentlemen be a virgin (gasp)? Does Nick continue mumbling #butwemadethelove followed by lots of lip biting? Will Shawn B. learn the truth of said love that was made? Keep up with Antonella and Renita as we recap this whole sorted mess!

What's a cliffhanger episode without...another cliffhanger episode that doesn't end in a rose ceremony? Where to even begin or end this recap? We don't know because the episode is literally a big hot mess of crying, drama and a doing away with the usual Bachelorette rules. We're still in Ireland, shaming the poor United States so much so that I'm pretty sure if you're American you are no longer welcomed in Ireland. We'll drag out that good ole Bachelorette helicopter, take a road trip and don't worry there are plenty of tears along the way and not just ours.

#butwemadethelove There's not a whole lot more than that that needs to be said! That's really your recap. Kaitlyn's romp was teased in the very beginning of the season and this is the night when it all goes down!

An underwater date bring our Bachelorette a little closer with one of the guys. There's an update on our dearly departed former Bachelorette wannabe Britt. Sit back and enjoy!

Back for Season 11 of the Bachelorette! Renita and Antonella (which incidentally sounds like the name of our soon to be released spaghetti sauce) are also back with fun, slightly buzzed and totally judgmental recaps. This season promises, as per the usual, to be THE most dramatic season of the Bachelorette ever! To quote Ant - "of course it does!" Two ladies and a...scratch that...This season features two lovely cast-offs from the just ended season of the Bachelor - Britt and Kaitlyn. 25 men, two women, one will be crowned Bachelorette before this premiere concludes.
