Welcome BACK to our brand new ABC's The Bachelor/ Bachelorette recap podcast. We are a married couple looking at this show through the lens of social justice, critical race theory, and some HARSH ASS READS!! We don't come to play. This 3 hour marathon of a season finale brought us to the edge of sanity. So much lead up to no-prosal at the end. The pay off for watching the first two hours was getting to see an After the Final Rose that didn't shy away from the controversy and socially difficult situations. Emmanuel Acho was pitch perfect in stepping in at the last minute and handling the business of the day. The conversation was difficult and necessary. We loved it. The new Bachelorettes are Michelle AND Katie! Coming this summer and fall.  AND...Chris Harrison is there, AGAIN...but ACHO GOT THE FINAL ROSE!! And...Tayshia and Kaitlyn are in the wings...

Truly. He is our angel baby canine friend. He helped us stay awake during this real snoozefest of a Fantasy Suites episode. Lots of lead up to a nothing-burger of two hours. The best part was the scholarly article Matthew linked to on his twitter (https://www.opportunityagenda.org/explore/resources-publications/media-representations-impact-black-men/media-portrayals). AND...Chris Harrison is there, AGAIN...but for how long??? Acho is in the wings...

From the news of Emmanuel Acho taking over for CH on After the Final Rose, to tweet-apologies, to whatever it was Victoria did... It was so nice to have Jessamyn and Paula to share their wisdom, humor, and biting commentaries. Cannot wait to have them on! Sorry for not cutting anything...it is a long ep, but all the brilliance was worth sharing. AND...Chris Harrison is there, AGAIN...but for how long??? Acho is in the wings...
