I’ve listened through multiple hosts as they tried to find their way, but this word salad today by Kathy and Charity was it for me. They couldn’t bring themselves to say what TFP did was wrong. No matter what happened before or after, it was wrong.

Where did everyone go?

I wanted to like the change but not feeling it. A lot of the episodes are hard to listen to.

I have recently started listening to podcasts and have enjoyed you guys. But I just have to come here to say I can’t believe the way you girls have literally thrown Teresa under the bus at every turn after Gerry’s ridiculous book came out. Just recently blasting both of them for slinging mud? Emphasizing Teresa?! She refused to discuss or say one negative thing about Gerry or the relationship up until that book came out. I feel sure BOTH OF YOU would have reacted as well to the things he said if you were her. That story had played out and was over. He is just a jerk and desperate for a money grab. You were all “great” friends and even recently visited her in her home - and this is the way you treat her. I am guessing you have to support Gerry since he was the lead, but what happened to girl code and your magnificent friendship? This is such a disappointment and has weighed on me every time I hear these comments about her from you. I just had to come and say SHAME on you!!! You should both feel terrible about the way you have treated Teresa. 😢

Kathy stop cutting off Susan and the guests every single episode.

All for making a host change to keep things fresh but cannot with Rachel. Love Charity but Rachel makes me cringe with her interview, speaking skills & quite frankly I’m tired of hearing her bitterness over what happened during her season. I’m sure she’s a great person but just not meant to be a podcast host. Would love Kelsey to take her place! Her & Charity would be a great duo! Or Joan would be great, she’s so well spoken.

I stopped listening when Rachel and Becca left. Gave it a chance every time they had new hosts and didn’t like it. LOVED the new episode with Rachel Lindsey!!! Being her and Becca back.

I’m sorry, I can’t stand charity’s voice. She is very sweet. Both of the girls are sweet, but I just feel like her voice is so sharp to listen to and I can’t stand how they be talk anymore I’m no longer listening

Stopped listening bc Joe and Serena were so hard to listen to. Love these girls and their interviews feel like yapping with friends about reality tv. Actually looking forward to these episodes again.

I’m loving Rachel and getting to listen to all the new interviews! Such a fun podcast

I like cannot, like, stand this for, like, one more second. Deleted the app. Laughing over each other voices and, like, talking over each other. LIKE, NOT REALLY.

I don’t think I will listen to the new Happy Hour episodes. Rachel talks over everyone. I’ll continue listening to Golden Hour episodes, Kathy and Susan have their dynamic down.

“period” “girl, I cannot” “truly” “actually” “so iconic” “like like like” —> 5 min of listening While mumbly Joe came off disinterested, I will truly miss Serena - one of the few NORMAL and down to earth girls in this franchise. Just like I still miss Rachel L’s intellect and interview skills. These image obsessed genZ buzzword valley girls totally talking over each other is making me feel like I’m losing more brain cells than actually watching the show. And proof that not everyone should be handed a podcast.

i love charity & rachel, but it will not be the same without joe & serena. they always kept it real and i loved the banter between a couple, which made it feel more relatable and personable. this used to be a 5 star podcast, but this definitely feels like a downgrade unfortunately.

I like this show a lot but your new hosts Charity and Rachael talk over each other and their guests. The laughter is good but we can’t hear what people are saying. They are so immature sometimes. We want to hear the guests and answers they give. It’s annoying. Joe and Serena were way better hosts. This is like girlfriend chat. The talking over each other needs to be changed.

Tried listening, but have to turn it off because the million “likes” drive me crazy. Turned it off.

Love you girls but yall are not ready! Talking all over each other. The “yes” “unn hu” while the guest is speaking is beyond annoying. It feels like yall are competing for air time! Listen back! Take time to practice and figure this out!

Serena and Joe were the best podcast hosts followed closely by the team of Becca and Rachel. (I wasn’t listening when Ali was a host.) This podcast won’t be the same for me without Joe and Serena, but I wish them the best! I also wish Rachel and Charity the best.

I cannot believe Joe & Serena are not going to be the hosts! I will not be listening anymore. I do not like Susan, Charity, or Rachel. I like Kathy but do not like the Golden hour. Well I guess I will be spending time listening to something else. Joe & Serena were a great team and interesting. I am rating a 5 for Joe & Serena. Byyeeee

You will be missed! Thank you for all the updates - glad there will be new hosts at least! Wishing you all the best, Joe & Serina!

Joe is just dumb. Serena sounds so condensing, not sure if it’s bc she married an old or what, but she thinks she’s better than everyone, so wild. They are a creepy couple

Sad to see Joe and Serena go 😢

I really enjoy your podcast and look forward to it each week. Just wondering why new host photos are not updated with your photos. Those other ladies haven’t been hosts for quite some time. Also the commercials seem to take up a lot of air time, I usually just fast forward but it would be nice to have to do that less often.

I love the show, but the advertisement breaks are unbearable. There are 3-4 ad breaks per episode, each roughly 5-7 minutes. It’s sane!

While watching the podcast on YouTube, I felt for Juliana. I think the hosts could be more empathetic towards people when they’re sharing vulnerable things. In this episode towards the end Julianna was talking about a hurtful rumor about her sex life. Joe quickly moved on to talk about who she is interested in on the show. I just thought there could have been a more appropriate, therapeutic communication… not offering advice but saying I hear you, and offering a sense of humanity.

Joe is too quiet (mumbling) or not talking into the microphone (muffled) and Serena is super LOUD! Level yourselves out!

Can you not put who the winner is in the title of the episode! It spoiled who won if we haven’t watched. :/ Overall I like their recap. They have different perspectives. Sometimes they go a little fast through the episode. Definitely too many adds. Like half the podcast are adds. But most podcasts seem to be like that these days.

Likeable hosts but minimal content. This is a waste of access to the guests.

Mel’s ex-wife left him and just married a woman last month.

I love you guys, but I can never hear your show without turning up my headphones. You speak so low compared to all my other podcasts. Please speak up. Especially you Joe !!!

You two are the best at recapping the Golden Bachelor! Keep up the good work!

This podcast is more ads than content, and for a pod called “happy hour” it’s not even an hour long 🤣 “Bachelor Ads for 30 minutes and a 15 min chat” lowest have the same ring to it I guess

Can’t stand Joe & Serena so I decided to give Joan & Jonathan a try. Horrible hosts. Joan talks wayyyyy too fast and Jonathan can’t even put a sentence together. God awful

Specifically for Kathy. I understand you are abrasive and talk over everyone. That is just you. However, you really hit a nerve on the Mel episode and your comments about Debbie and women who have never been married and no children . That was so hurtful coming from someone in that category. We’re not “red flags” or can’t relate to men with kids . We are full, beautiful, smart, professional, caring women who date but who never “met the one.” We live our lives fully and with purpose without a man and with plenty of other people who love us. I really hope one day you can look at yourself and start to see people differently and in a more respectful way. You are speaking like some someone born in the 1940s! There are now more single people of all generations than ever before.

In today’s podcast the contestant kept calling the other women “girls.” We are women, not girls. A man dating girls sounds completely inappropriate. Women don’t date boys, do we? I live the podcast, but she needed to be called on that! Ugh.

Love the pod, wish we’d stop giving Kat and Dale so much attention. She was so nasty and disrespectful while on the shows. Truly wonder why we continue to give them their 5 mins.

This podcast is a must listen because it is an official bachelor podcast. The interviews are always relevant and the cast favorites are always on. It is also great to hear “villains” perspectives. Joe and Serena make a perfect match for podcasting and their interviews are always smooth. I will continue to listen and I look forward to the interviews that will come out of the next few seasons of bachelor/ette/goldens etc. I also thought Wells did a great job with the reunion episode. He is a true professional and one of the best hosts out there.

I don’t normally listen to this show but I wanted to listen to the post-paradise episodes. The audio quality was insaaaanely bad. I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt because the reunion episodes had 16+ people, but I listened to the next few episodes with only Joe and Serena and then with the final two couples and the audio quality was just as bad. I had to keep adjusting the volume because the person speaking would get quiet, but then it would jump back up. Also, like others have said, waaaay too many commercials. Won’t be coming back to this show.

I loved this podcast back when Becca was the host. I stopped listening when the hosts changed because I don’t like the new style. I tuned in again just to hear the BIP reunion, and it is not great to listen to. I wish people would have been mic’ed properly, not turned their head away from the microphone, and not talked over one another. Some of it was so hard to follow and the audio kept weaving in and out because of gesturing or turning. I also felt lost when they were talking about some things like “the tweet” and wish Wells would have thought to step in and give the audience some context. I hope they don’t ever do this format again!

The last few episodes sounds really off. The host when speaking is super low and hard to hear and the guests are louder. For producers please look into this. Super hard to listen to the episodes like that.

Really enjoyed the interview with Wells and the 2 final couples from BIP! Wells is a great interviewer!

I’m a Golden, so really enjoying the Goldens. But your only purpose is not to “teach” and “spread wisdom “… live for yourself. And Kathy likes the sound of her voice a little too much.

Losing past hosts was a big loss. I unsubscribed to listening once Joe and Serena became hosts. Joe is very difficult to listen to. I don’t feel like they prepare questions in a way that it’s interesting for listeners to listen to the interviews. They never follow up or dive deeper when a guest answers their questions. Episodes are too short and there are too many commercials. After dropping this podcast over a year ago, I recently listed it to again because I had watched Bachelor in Paradise on TV, so I wanted to listen to the reunion. While it was an interesting reunion, the audio was awful. So awful I had to start and stop listening to get through the podcast - come on Bachelor, you can do better. Wells should take on being the host of this podcast.

Great job navigating all the mics for the BIP unplugged. You lead well and redirected in a way to get all the questions answered. Also great job to the cast for allowing everyone to say their feelings and talking about hard things in a safe space.

The podcast is fine but the amount of commercials is unbearable. Seems like a cash grab and not caring about the quality of the show.

The reunion episode was so awful to listen to I gave up. I much prefer Ben Higgin’s podcast because he did one-on-one’s with the cast. You can’t have all those people talking at once, whose bad idea was that?

It’s basically just commercials.

I love both podcasts, but hear notification chimes all the time during the Golden Hour podcast. Please silence your phones during the pod, it is very distracting. Thank you.

I love the Ladies - Kathy and Susan -on Golden Bachelor and would love them to have their own separate podcast - they are so much better at interviews- letting guests talk and following up with more questions Sorry 4 star is only for them Serena- to practice a less nasal speaking voice- pinch your nostrils and force your voice through your diaphragm ❤️

Stop with the “like” in every sentence. Your podcast is unlistenable!
