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

Joe makes me literally cringe. He is the most boring person ever to listen to and Serena now annoys me, too. Gave this podcast another chance and I was right..not for me, they are BEYOND boring and I bet their sex is, too.

I’m sorry but I seriously can’t take the same ads Joe and Serena literally just READ, it’s brutal! Over and over. AND they seem so uninterested in their guests lately it’s almost like I can’t wait for it to end and I feel like I can barely hear what is happening a lot of the time, like they are talking so low or something is wrong with audio. I literally can’t hear Joe and I always turn it up. It’s the main bachelor podcast so I like to hear the interviews, but lately I don’t even want to tune in. It’s definitely getting stale and as much as I like Kathy and Susan, they are funny together, I have been skipping those because it is the same thing over and over and them talking over each other and just answering the same type of questions from fans …..

Commercials, commercials, commercials. Short episodes, stuffed with so many commercials. It’s obscene. It’s a pattern for iHeart and a dealbreaker. Not worth even trying to listen to any of the episodes. Very little content.

I love bachelor happy hour but don’t really care for the golden one. Can you give each one its own version?

I can’t hear the hosts in my car

Come to Bachelor podcasts for the recaps—save the interviews for post season

I feel for Kathy’s husband immensely, however, Kathy is definitely not someone who should be giving advice on mental health until she gets hers in check.

Note and guest s across nice and loud but not Serena

The total ad time per podcast sometimes matches the actual pod length. Makes for an incredibly horrid listening experience.

First, I love your show and your guests. However the last few shows Joe leans negative and a bit disinterested. Doesn’t seem very excited when talking to guests. Maybe he’s just tired?

Joe is a horrific interviewer. Serena is ok. Wild that these two got together? Serena you could’ve Been living a good single life not with a 40 yr old man child

The only thing I wanted to hear about from Mari and Kenny was their experience on The Floor. Mari tried to bring it up at the end but oops, Joe and Serena forgot about that. They are obsessed about only talking about Paradise, especially Joe.

Serena and Joe, My husband and I listen to your podcast every week. I am Canadian as well and we recommend you continue on to get your citizenship. I have dual citizenship and, having both, gives us peace of mind. We did the process without legal help. It took 5 1/2 years in total. Keep all your paperwork! Congrats on your green card!! It’s definitely a very anxious process. C&T

Weekly listener, love Joe & Serena, Susan & Kathy. All my mom friends and myself-Big Bach fan - listen to all the pods, watch the shows etc, but this episode was my fave. Zac is incredible, the work he does,all he accomplished. It’s real. The show has its purpose but a couple of friends just hanging, yet talk about real life is everything. The vulnerability, the approachability, and normalcy was refreshing and inspiring. Joe & Zac been my favorite normal dudes from Bach. Serena is relatable, wise beyond her years and someone I could be friends with. The 3 of you and the simplicity was perfect. My husband and I left NY too soon. I hope you do more of these conversations. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Joe and Serena seemed to genuinely vibe with them and the convo was so casual and fun. Dean and Caelynn are both wonderful, down to earth and I loved getting caught up on their lives. A real BIP success story! Please have them on again.

Couldn’t even hear Joe on the Clayton part one interview. Not even gonna attempt to listen to part two. Sounds like he was half asleep, mumbling as usual. The volume was absolutely horrible other than Clayton‘s. Serena was better, but Joe as usual seemed like he didn’t want to be there

Omg , you ladies are hilarious, I saw Susan on got to get out and omg she is the most adorable, entertaining and I couldn’t stop laughing when this one particular episode plays ! You two together are the absolute best ! It literally changes my mood the instant I hear your voices! Love you ladies.

It’s one thing for Joe to sound perpetually bored and disinterested, but if you’re hosting an official bachelor podcast, at least try to properly learn cast names! 🙄 and for the love of ratings, stop with the inaudible mumbling! I do really like Serena and think she is good at this, but the ads leaning towards the fascist in charge don’t seem to fit well with spotlighting a /Canadian /woman of /color.

Loved this conversation. Joe and Serena asked great questions. Very interesting. Thanks for airing it all. Worth two parts. Hope to see Clayton on BIP

Ads bashing Biden and supporting Trump - seriously?? That has no place on a reality TV podcast where there’s a wide range of listeners. Disgusting - can’t support this podcast anymore, you need awareness of today’s world.

I really wanted to love The Golden Bachelor podcast with Kathy and Susan but honestly I just can’t hang with Kathy. Every time I give it a shot I find myself cringing. She constantly interrupts Susan talks over her and keeps shutting her down with comments like “Let the guest talk.” But if anyone needs to take that advice it is definitely Kathy. Susan brings this grounded warm and open energy that is honestly the only redeeming part of the show. If she had her own podcast I would be all in. She just feels more relatable and authentic. But as it stands now I cannot even get through an episode without switching to another Bachelor podcast. The dynamic is off and it is not a vibe I want in my rotation. Support Susan solo. Yes please. Put Kathy on mute. Even better.

Disappointed in the political ads and will not continue to listen.

BHH needs to live stream if they want more people to watch. Other shows on this order do that.

Audio isn’t good - can never hear Joe at the same volume as Serena. They also only offer a recap and not enough additional insight to make it worth listening to in addition to watching show. Kathy turns interviews to be about her - don’t want to be auto subscribed to Golden Hour for following Happy Hour

I am absolutely gobsmacked that you would include the winner’s name in the title of the episode about the finale. I open my podcast app to a spoiler? There are many bachelor podcasts in my feed and never once has this happened. Maybe I should watch in real time, but I’m more likely to unsubscribe. This was a wild move. To quote the great Mugatu, “I feel like I’m taking crazy pills”

I’m so happy for the both of you please don’t let the naysayers get in between the Love that you have for one another. Continue to grow together in love and faith and family

Do people enjoy hearing Serena and Joe’s takes on Bachelor Nation? I find their perspectives stale, annoying, and antiquated. Time for some new hosts!

Loved Serena’s solo AFR interviews! Great job, listening, being in the moment and asking great follow up questions. Well done!

I like the addition of the guest hosts. I really enjoyed listening to Charity, Dotun and Jeremy. They had great chemistry with Joe and like that we heard from other perspectives!

Be sensitive to the term “real” sister. It’s either “biological” sister or “adoptive” sister. Either is a real sister. When you’re part of the adoption community, the term “real” can be triggering. ☺️

Serena screeches and I need to turn my volume down whenever she speaks. This is where inexperience with a mic is not helpful. It’s such a difference between Joe and her. Listen back to any pod.

Joe seems like he never wants to podcast, he’s always rushing conversations. Serena doesn’t ask interesting questions, it’s always very predictable, just so bleh.

I’m not a huge tech

Serena needs to be more mindful of how she speaks to Joe. Saying “I don’t know what you’re talking about” or “you are not making any sense” sounds a little dismissive and disrespectful.

I love Kathy and Susan, but I wish they would plan better for the Podcast. The constant talking over each other and their guests is getting old. They need to allow each other to ask questions. I always feel bad for the guests. They have to struggle to be heard. Plan better and have a great podcast. Work with each other to allow time for your questions. I know you are excited to speak to your guests, but slow down.

I love Joe and Serena! Can’t stand a podcast with Kathy… a feeling like she’s overbearing and rude to Susan and it’s hard for me to get through a whole one anymore with the golden ladies. Sorry, but I think it’s got to go!

The two podcasts are okay, but I wish they would cut down on the number of episodes per week. Honestly, 1 episode/week for each is enough. Also, the advice segments with the golden girls is getting very repetitive.

I enjoy listening to Joe and Serena, but cannot get through a podcast with the golden ladies, Kathy and Susan. Susan is tolerable, but Kathy is simply overbearing. Kathy turns every item into a story about herself and at this point, who cares? Neither were strong contenders on their season and I just don’t understand why they have a platform. I’m 62, definitely in the golden age range, and will not listen to Kathy and Susan. I cannot imagine the younger audience members feel differently.

I think Joe and Serena are so awkward lately. They bicker and seem unhappy with each other. I think Joe is bad on mic, he hurries the conversations with Serena just as she starts sharing interesting updates about her life. The “getting to know” quizzes are almost embarrassing, maybe they do it because Joe cannot hold a regular conversation like on a professional podcast. Save this podcast, bring a friend to have conversations with Serena and dump Joe.

As an avid listener across all Bach podcasts since the beginning, I don’t think I’ve ever written a review. Kathy’s constant “jokes” coming onto young male guests are aggressive & inappropriate. Often bugging them multiple times. We hear the discomfort in their hesitant responses while tryna be polite. It’s cringy for us listeners as well. Zip it! In this day and age, her behavior is harassment & a poor reflection on the franchise. She’s just rude & crude tho she tries to fake it, but true selves always show thru. Maybe try out another Golden w/ sweet Susan.

I really enjoy their podcast. Great ladies. PLEASE though- STOP talking over each other. It is so annoying & makes it hard to follow what either of you are saying.

I like Joe and Serena, but the golden show has to go. I just get annoyed when I click yo listen, but I get them. Unfollowing show now…

Wasn't able to watch Live and spent the entire season trying to avoid spoilers, only to have the title of this episode scroll on my phone just as I sat down to watch the morning after the finale 😭😓

I really enjoy the golden our podcast. However, Kathy and Susan really need to stop interrupting and talking over their guests and each other. It is making it very challenging to keep listening. Please please please when you ask a question of a guest or each other, do not respond or talk over the answers!

I only listen after I have exhausted every other bachelor podcast. This is their official one so it’s a little too safe. But when they have Jared freed on, it’s amazing.

I’m not being dramatic, this last year I was working a job that was extremely stressful and I could not fall asleep at night. I have listened to this podcast to fall asleep almost every night for the last year. Knocks me right out. It’s so boring and the hosts lack so much personality and genuineness. Sometimes the episodes are so boring that it even wakes me up out of my sleep and I have to turn to a new episode. But I won’t stop listening especially on restless nights LOL. This podcast + some sleepy time tea is the best recipe for a good nights sleep

The recap episodes are about 10 minutes of ads. Listening to Serena read a Chevy equinox ad with a million stipulations to it drives me crazy each week, who is buying a car from listening to a podcast? If it’s going to be so many ads, get some relevant partnerships!

I love hearing the recaps of the episodes and the host thoughts on it. However, I feel like they try a little too hard to be neutral when giving their opinions or interviewing controversial contestants. Which is strange since we all watch the show for the drama. I want them to ask the hard questions and give their honest unfiltered opinions! Even if I don’t agree with them it would be more entertaining. Also, way too many ads.

Joe! I think Jack has a stronger Chicago accent! Almost mobster like! 😂 I grew up in Orland Park (right next to Tinley Park) and we did not have accents like Jacks. I believe he is truly from the south side of Chicago probably near Midway airport. That’s my guess!
