Date Card

In this off season episode I'm joined by Shannon who, like me and Taylor, is also a member of The Tortured Poets Department. Which if you're confused about what that means, it just means we're traumatized gays with some mental illness. Together we try to spread the gospel of the alleged secondary layer of both albums...and oops it's almost two hours long. Just like this god forsaken double album drop. lol Thank you @dotherosesalign as always Follow us on insta @datecardpod Twitter @datecardpodcast Tiktok @datecardpodcast @jennawithasmile  Art: Mikaela @mikaelajane Jane  mikaela-jane.com  Music: Jed Overly @jeddyboyjames  https://www.flowcode.com/page/jeddyjames  Proud podcast of So Below Media

I don't think any of us saw this season and what it would bring coming. But it came for us regardless. The highs, the lows, the twists, the expected, and everything in between. We did it together. And to help celebrate that I was stoked to bookend the season with Shannon from Do The Roses Align. Together we talk about the finale, the edits, the girl power, the gay, the Bachelorette announcement and of course we talk THE PLANETS. Because the show had a birthday and it all means something people. Thank you Shannon and make sure you follow her at @dotherosesalign for all your gay astrology needs.

As is tradition we must gather all the ex's in one room and let the tension rise to the point of tears. But luckily there was some bombshells and soft moments to help ease the strife...barely. And to help me break down the Women Tell All, I am joined by Joey's future bae - Epiphany! Together we talk about how we got to this stage in the season, the main drama (Maria), the rampant racism, and our predicitions for the soft babygirl. Thank you Epiphany again- I LOVE YOU!

I have to say after an entire season of beating us over the heads with tennis related moments, they really failed during Fantasy Suites to bring us any tennis related sex puns. According to a list of tennis terms I just googled, we could have seen talk of Forehand, Stroke, Ground Stroke, Foot Fault, and being a Receiver. I'm disappointed. But what does not disappoint, is this weeks podcast with guest Leah from Positively Uncensored! Together we talk about the overnight dates and what was said in the unsaid, the golden ladies, who knocked boots, and miraculously fixed the BIP problem facing the franchise. YOU'RE WELCOME! Big thank you to Leah and make sure you're checking out her tiktok and podcast at @positivelyuncensored Follow us on insta @datecardpod Twitter @datecardpodcast Tiktok @datecardpodcast @jennawithasmile  Art: Mikaela @mikaelajane Jane  mikaela-jane.com  Music: Jed Overly @jeddyboyjames  https://www.flowcode.com/page/jeddyjames  Proud podcast of So Below Media

When you're here, you're FAMILY. And that's also the theme of this week of The Bachelor, as Joey got to meet his final 4's families. And surprisingly it was entertaining and interesting???

We get into family dynamics, Joeys responses, where the women shined or fumbled, and some thoughts on how bach nation is reacting.

I hope you enjoyed your short off season (blink and you'd miss it) because the Bachelor waits for no one and Joey Graziadei's journey to find a engagement-situationship is UPON US. But before we start this season officially we must meet the THIRTY TWO single ladies ready for our curly haired soft boy and judge them purely off of a disjointed bio captions, their instagrams, and of course sun signs. Thank you to Shannon from Do The Roses Align for podcasting with me for 2 hours!! We managed to give first impressions to every one (let's be honest a lot of these ladies are too good for this show, except for the very loud Trumper) AND review Saltburn. A true podcasting feat of strengths.

Sometimes i wonder where this is all going, but then I am reminded of the community. The friendships! The laughter and snark! Truly the rose that keeps giving!
