Description
A Los Angeles mom and her two teenage/young adult daughters (21 and 19) are the Bachelor Nation Newbies. The Newbies discovered The Bachelor during the pandemic in Spring of 2020 when watching the 2009 Jason Mesnick Season on Netflix.
Each week we're sharing both our newbie Bachelor Nation perspective and glimpses into our family dynamics during an unedited conversation about life, love and everything in between as we use The Bachelor/The Bachelorette as a conduit for a fresh, mom/daughters conversation. Perfect for a Bachelor fix on your daily dog walk or while folding laundry. Whether you're new like us, a veteran BN fanatic or just interested in topics like love, dating, mom/daughter relationships, moving away to college, feminism, reality television, life with a Husky, an old Chihuahua, and much more - join us as our bachelor journey continues to unfold.

The Newbies have been living their boss ass bitch lives and have not had much time to discuss the time suck that is love reality television. BUT the girls just had to gather to celebrate the end of Joey's love journey because of the life-changing effect Joey has had on each of them. Kinda. The Newbies discuss a variety of topics including Phoebe's desire to not "adult"; Natalia Grace comparisons; valuable mom advice about "smoking weed"; the shock that Daisy was not the chosen one;...
It's a Sunday and the Newbies gather to discuss the last two episodes of Joey's love journey as he round the final turn towards hometowns. The expert tear wiper is primed and ready to go for hometowns visits with four amazing women - one of whom could most definitely be "his person." If only she could just stop doubting this amazing process! :) Per usual, the Newbies find themselves discussing unexpected love tangents. Topics for this week's episode include whether or not the rate of div...
Despite the absolute time suck of watching this week's FOUR HOUR BLOCK of Joey's European Love Journey, the Newbies share this week's pod in a semi-timely fashion. This week's topics include fake eyelashes; the confusion of the dumb, never-ending Maria drama which has been picked up by Lea after Sidney left; the continued tendency to "one-up" each other when it comes to traumatic pasts; the Newbies affection for how Maria expressed her past trauma; how Phoebe expressed the difference bet...
The Newbies battle through some Monday night low energy to discuss the nosedive that Joey's love journey took during Episode 3. With Bachelor producers struggling to make BIG drama between Maria and Sidney when it's really NO drama is all just a bit depressing. Other topics include the Newbies discussing the value of pageants and why Phoebe never decided to be in one; the fact that Sidney is obviously a plant in this season; why Joey is so fine to play along with all this Bachelor ...
With rain falling in epic proportions from Southern California skies, the Newbies have a cozy afternoon girl chat about all things romance and love. Topics for this week's episode including whether or not any romantic moments in real life ever live up to the expectations that a Bachelor finale sets; is romantic love baked into our cultural expectations or are we only driven by the human desire to love and be loved; the excitement of butterflies and growing love; how The Bachelor is truly...
It's hard to believe the Newbies missed the cultural moment that was The Golden Bachelor, but sometimes life demands other endeavors. BUT the Newbies couldn't miss the opportunity to add their mother/daughter commentary for what will certainly be the most epic love journey of all time. (And the most dramatic season finale ever, for sure.) In the pod's Season Premiere, the Newbies discuss whether or not the "banana" move was appropriate or not; whether sisters wanting to kiss ...
The Newbies are in three separate locations as the girls are settled back in college - Phoebe for her sophomore year and Claire for her senior year!! Where are the time gone. BNN started in January of Claire's freshmen year. CRAZY!!!

Other topics include LETTING GO; how Charity and Dotun seem like they're in it for the LONG GAME TRULY; and ...
As the Newbies try to catch up to Charity's blistering fast love journey, the discussion per usual starts on an extreme tangent surrounding Claire's new life farming dream that started on her Pinterest board in 5th grade. The Newbies' Sunday morning brains are slow to focus on Charity's love but when all is said and done, Dotun continues to be the winner with Xavier and Joey fighting for a close second. This love journey is winding down quickly - thanks for tuning in for thi...
The Newbies discuss all kinds of topics that barely include Charity's love journey based on the ratings free fall that this season is inspiring. Perhaps that is because of locations like Stevenson, Washington and the lack of "trashy love" that the old Bachelor Nation regime seems to thrive on. In any event, the Newbies topics include Claire's disgust about paper mail except coupons from Biden for Bath and Body Works; the power of a shredder for paper mail; Leane's belief that women care...
The Newbies are back together in person for a TWO EPISODE discussion that includes topics like the Titan submersible disaster; group man noises; Phoebe's 19th birthday; their love for Dotun and this season's dark horse, Tanner; and of course how immature Brayden is and how confusing that Charity seems to want him to stick around! Join the Newbies generational discussion about all things love and please rate and review wherever you listen! Here's to LOVE! For Charity!
In Episode 2 of Charity's Love EXTRAVAGANZA, the Newbies talk about Joey and the longest kiss with Joey and Joey's smile and just Joey!! Here's to LOVE with Joey! Rate and review wherever you listen!!
Your fave dog-walking, laundry-folding, running errands podcast is back for your 4th of July weekend! After some deep contemplation, the Newbies have decided that they simply can not stay away from Charity's search for LOVE. After Leane initially feeling Charity was going to be too low-key for the Bachelorette spotlight, she has completely changed her tune after Episode 1. The Newbies are all about Charity's grounded, authentic, kind, quality and the caliber of men seem to ma...
The Newbies can NOT believe that Zach's journey is over and that he and Kaity are happily skipping off together into the Austin sunset! The season has been more fun than the Newbies ever expected and we're sad to see Zach's wacky journey come to a close. All kinds of topics are discussed including how has Kaity NOT gotten the ick factor yet?; the power of mentor Sean's segment during the 3-hour finale; and WHY is the finale THREE hours???; what a queen Ariel is over and over again; the c...
Oh Zach the Snack. The Newbies discuss Zach's inner need to tell the truth ALWAYS no MATTER WHAT. Even when it makes no sense whatsoever to tell the truth. The Newbies reconvene after their week off due to some sad family news and have a raw conversation that spans topics from spontaneous bouts of insecurity and self-doubt to Gabi's bouts of crying to how much Ariel is a absolute Queen to Zach's baffling decision to reveal his sexual encounter with Gabi to his soon-to-be fiancee Kaity.&n...
Phoebe is on Spring Break so she and Leane are together at home recording the old school way with Claire still at her undisclosed location. Phoebe and Leane had an "emotional" time watching the Bachelor together on a chilly LA day and Claire is absolutely stunned that there were any tears shed at all for Zach! Topics this week include the meaning behind feeling "the butterflies"; how this batch of women are basically "ick-proof" according to Claire and Phoebe; whether or not ...
It's Phoebe's Spring Break and after a harrowing trip to Claire's undisclosed college location to see Claire in a super fun production of "Puffs!", the Newbies host a rainy afternoon Monday BNN session. The topics are wide and varied including Zach's privilege oozing out of his pores as he whines about having "no more room service" post Covid; Jess trying to explain to Zach her love language but he sees it as a "disconnect"; is Kat losing her edge for the Final Four spot; ho...
Claire is beyond busy in her tech week of her college play so the Newbies are late to recording this week but they gather on a Sunday afternoon to discuss all things London like High Tea, Double Decker Busses and Snogging - but also dig deep into random stories like the 25th anniversary of the Titanic and how Leane's parents witnessed a hold up at a local pharmacy. On the love front, the Newbies interest in Zach is slipping as he slams Greer for caring about her career as much as h...
The Newbies love their slow Saturday mornings to sip coffee and discuss all things Bach related and much more! With Zach's season being SO LOW in drama, the Newbies tend to ramble about plenty of adjacent topics. Leane finally learns what raw-doggin' it means; Claire and Phoebe learn which books are in the Top 25 of 2022; the trials of carpet beetles; will the younger generation stop getting married?; and more! On the Bachelor front, the Newbies spend a lot of time talking about Za...
It's only Episode 3 but the Newbies are in deep on Zach's journey towards love.

The Newbies are fully embracing their BAD BITCH vibes to discuss all of the important themes from the Week 2 episode where Zach nodded awkwardly as the women tried to show their bad bitch energy to him to prove that they are wife material. What? Other riveting topics include whether farting in front of your partner is showing your authentic self (or NOT!); how the label of being a bad bitch has changed between generations; how The Bachelor is trying to be a bit more authentic this season...
