Not everyone has kids
Can we turn down the mother talk just a little bit? When you refer to women it’s constantly implying that we have children or all will. A strong percentage of your audience does not relate to that.

Callie is horrible
She’s an awful podcaster and super unlikable. Used to love this pod back in the day w/juliet and Jacoby…

Combatting Callie Hate
I’ve been tuning in each week for years, and it’s been such a joy to watch Callie grow into her role as cohost. She consistently comes prepared and brings the energy to every episode. No matter the show covered, it’s a fun listen! Shout out to Juliet for entrusting her to hold down the fort during her leave.

“Bachelor” Podcast No More
I used to look forward to hearing them recap The Bachelor, but they have made a clear pivot to all romance reality tv. I can feel how much they hate watching/talking about The Bachelor franchise. They should create a new podcast and change the name to align with their new show.

Big Brother
I am excited to hear Taylor’s insight into this season of Big Brother. I am subscribed and ready!

Dismissive against marginalized groups
I’ve been a long time listener but I will be standing by my one star. The dismissive comments for Cierra using a racial slur was upsetting. The “apology” was not an apology at all. It was a justification for what you said and there was no accountability. It’s so upsetting when people want to seem inclusive and not racially biased, but to authentically be an ally you have to speak up WITH communities. The “I can’t decide what slurs are racist or not because I’m not a minority” attitude is being complicit against racist behavior. Unacceptable.

One of my fav!
One of my favorite reality tv podcasts! Callie is doing great and can’t wait for Juliet to be back full time!

TAYLOR?!
SO excited to see that not only will there be BB coverage, but THE Taylor Hale will be co-hosting!! Callie is the reason I started listening and it just gets better with the addition of Taylor! This pod is my one stop shop for all of my reality tv podcast needs.

More Bachelor!!
Excited to have Juliet back but I agree with the last review. I want to hear more about Paradise!! Some of us are of the generation where Bachelor is our show and we aren’t watching Love Island. Thanks!

Is this Bachelor or is this Love Island?
Welcome back, Juliet, but also, I’m 32 mins into the Bachelor in Paradise recap and they’ve yet to mention a word of the show this is supposed to be about. Perhaps recap LI on another episode? BIP was three hours and gets… 25 mins.

Justifying Racism
It was bad enough that Callie justified Cierra’s use of a racial, but the sad excuse for an apology was even worse. You still are not focusing on the fact that the use of the word is unacceptable and should not be tolerated in any context. Your “apology” was just reiterating that you personally don’t use that word and a lot of people didn’t know it was a slur. That was not the point!!

Do some research
Any research, even a tiny bit. How are you going to start the show with an apology without researching the context of the slur and how it was found

Disappointed
I have been a fan of this podcast for a couple years. I usually love Callie’s take on these shows. However, I was disappointed how Cierra’s use of a racial slur was downplayed.I am hoping by the next episode the hosts will have learned more about this whole situation and maybe have a more educated response.

Racism is Not Acceptable
For a woman of color to excuse Cierra’s use of a racial slur because it was “acceptable 4 years ago” is inexcusable. Just because that slur was something you didn’t care about 4 years ago doesn’t mean that it was acceptable. It means that you are ignorant. Btw she used the word in 2023, after Asian Americans experienced heightened levels of racism and hate crimes after the Covid Pandemic. #StopAsianHate starts with allyship in communities that have suffered similar abuses. Communities like yours.

Disappointed
I’ve been listening forever and don’t always agree with their takes but still love hearing them. But this last episode Callie heavily downplayed the impact of an Asian sl*r used by a contestant because she didn’t know it was a sl*r until recently. I hope she’s reconsidered her views but publishing a podcast saying that feels incredibly irresponsible.

Callie
On the last episode, Callie said it would have been acceptable for a love island contestant to say a racist slur 4 years ago. Just thought I should point out that she’s wrong.

Race double-standard
I’ve listened to this podcast for years and used to really enjoy it. However, after this last episode, I have to stop listening. It is so offensive that the racial slurs used by Cierra are brushed over by both hosts and you can’t understand why she’s getting backlash. As women of color, I would expect more from you to support other races when the discrimination is turned on them.

Love!!
Thank you for being logical, intelligent show critics. It’s so hard to find a podcast recapping Love Island USA right now that doesn’t have me ranting in disagreement. The fandom can be a little unhinged, so it’s good to hear rational opinions.
NopeXOneThousand
Pick and choose?
So I guess it’s okay to say one type of racist word (Cierra) and not one (yulissa) according to these ladies

Love the Love Island recaps but…
Callie should stay away from recapping other podcasts because she does so very inaccurately. I also listened to the Chicks in the Office and Viall Files episodes and had I not, I would’ve just taken Callie’s interpretation as direct quotes. Just something that personally irks me.

Favorite podcast
I love Juliet and Callie. Callie has been so enjoyable to listen to while Juliet is on leave. This is my favorite podcast. I never miss an episode!

I love Callie
I just agree with everything Callie says, and I too, was so shocked by Bell-a’s weird meme like speaking! So strange. I love you Callie. You are amazing.

DCC America’s Team
Do your homework. The “bootman” is the official boot maker for DCC. I am 10 minutes into your podcast and have to stop listening. The judges has a direct connection to DCC. The weatherman hosts events, is friends with the Cowboy family and have been judging for a long time. Neil McCoy is not a random country singer. He performs with the show group over seas. You are not informed enough to make an opinion and I don’t like you laughing at how serious this is for the training camp.

I wish there were an email I could respond to, however, this combo of bachelor, love island and bravo is everything. Side note: Huda=Jen Shah

Ugh
Good topics (Bach, love island, etc) unfortunately the host Callie is very unpleasant to listen to. I’ve given it a year but I’m over it. Her love of toxic Ace on season 7 of LI is so off putting. gotta sign off! (Her voice too man no thanks)
KLmurray
Long time Bach party lover!
I loved the dynamic between Callie and Brittany- I really enjoyed callie hosting that and it felt like listening to two girlfriends catching up! Sometimes the podcast can feel very news-like with their voices and with both of them it felt like getting to eavesdrop on their conversations! Long time listener of the podcast and love Callie. But having the fresh takes from Brittany and her humor was so nice and refreshing! A couple times I was laughing so hard with some of the stuff they were saying.

Please do a little research
I like this podcast but get so frustrated by the lack of research being done before getting on to record. Sharing blatantly inaccurate information on a topic you’re speaking about just because you couldn’t google it before the show is so annoying!! If you’re going to bring it up, please look it up beforehand! It makes your podcast seem like amateur hour.

Regression
I’ve appreciated this podcast for its mix of lighthearted energy and thought-provoking cultural commentary. I’m a LONG time listener and beyond thrilled for Juliet. I appreciate what she has built and developed with Bachelor Party. More often than not, the conversations have felt progressive, insightful, and genuinely curious—qualities that made it a standout in the space. Jodi continues to bring that thoughtful, balanced presence and is an excellent match for Callie’s dynamic energy. However, the recent addition of Brittany hasn’t added the same depth. Her commentary often feels performative and overly reactive to perceived audience sentiment, which detracts from the organic, exploratory tone the show once had. Her takes lack the nuance and clarity that made past discussions more compelling. I hope the podcast returns to the more engaging and progressive dialogue.

Callie and Jodi are a Great Pairing!
I haven’t listened to the other recaps because I don’t watch Farmer Wants a Wife but Jodi and Callie really have a great flow, would love to see her more on the show when Bachelor comes back!

UPDATE: Love Callie x Brittany!!!
My original review was titled “Juliet Litman needs to let others speak.” Honestly, I have found the show much more enjoyable with Callie and Brittany at the helm. (Solid 4-5 stars for me!) The conversation flows better, I like how Callie asks Brittany questions, and Callie makes me laugh. My issue with Juliet’s podcasting style is that she doesn’t let others speak. And I originally gave a two-star review, so I’m splitting the difference now. ORIGINAL REVIEW Conversations are fluid and interruptions happen, but she regularly refuses to let other people finish their thoughts. The latest episode with Jared is a perfect example—especially when they were talking about Love Is Blind. It’s very easy to let other people share their thoughts to! It makes for a better dialogue

Where’s Juliet?
Love the pod, but it’s not the same without Juliet! Bring her back
RicaInez
Big fan
I love Juliet I love Callie. Long time fan. Great show!
Cindy l. Word crazy
Good pod - repetitive line
Would give the pod 5 stars but I can’t stand how many times Callie says “which, by the way” !! I counted 9 times in 20 min the other day - crazy! Get a new phrase please!

Bird!

congratulations Juliet!
Congratulations Juliet, totally had to stop my grocery shopping mid listen to write this. how exciting, best wishes to you and your little baby!!!

Defending Grant??
Oof. Rough take. He so obviously did her dirty- I’m confused. Tough listen.
Yungfam22
Congrats Juliet! Best Wishes!
But we need more knowledgeable temp replacement about the show and its history. I cringed when the two didn’t know what season Grant came from and how the show works. I’ve been thinking this for a long time, not just this episode. Avid listener since 2016 or even possibly earlier. Le sigh
heyyyykt
HARD to listen to
Ma’am, why invite a guest if you’re just going to speak over them? I read that people who constantly interrupt someone who is speaking believe that they are the most important person in the room and don’t care to hear anyone else’s opinion. The episode with Jared was almost unbearable to listen to. Do yourself a favor and review that episode. You NEED a teachable moment because it was awful and YOU were the problem.

Julia and Jared are pretty awesome together
Can these two please do a series of 4-to-6-episode travel podcasts??

LOVE every episode Jared Freid is on with Juliet! Good pair for a podcast!

This is my fav bachelor recap
Love listening to you guys. Thank you for doing what you do! This season is boring me and I had no interest in watching fantasy suites despite investing time in the season thus far. It’s the same show over and over and over…. With just new people. Would love to know if you guys agree?

These people…
… can’t speak. Like,…

Unsubscribed
Stopped listening. The 3.9 star rating speaks for itself. These two are uninformed and way out of touch. Might come back with a different cohost than Callie. She is truly awful.

Maybe the girlies need an additional pod :)
I’ll be a die hard BP fan forever- but either a name change, or a second pod in addition is needed- I can’t get over how it was missed that Carolina had printed on her jacket the quote that was shown over and over again in promos and talked about so incessantly by all bachelor recap pods. Crazy and evil…. ! I feel bad even giving feedback but I had to say it! I love love love the addition from several years ago of Callie! Love how the girls bounce off of each other, and love what her perspective brings to the atmosphere. I’ll be a forever and always loyal listener, I guess I just want more of you guys in my life every week- as if you aren’t busy enough lol. 💕💕

Mean Girls
I used to be a fan of this show, but I’m generally tired of how negative and demeaning the hosts are. I get it’s fun to harp on the contestants, but the disgust is palpable. Their bias seeps through every passive aggressive comment, and it’s impossible for these nitwits to consider any other viewpoint but their own. The only podcast where the hosts are dumber than the reality contests.

Love Juliet and Callie!
This pod and betchelor are basically the only reasons I even watch this tired show anymore! Love Callie and Juliet, and I love the chill vibe of this pod.

Negative
I’m not sure why they have a podcast about the Bachelor when they clearly dislike the show. We listen for entertainment, not for total negativity. I used to listen but I will have to unfollow if negativity doesn’t improve. Juliet is critical and depressing to listen to on the show.
