In this episode, we chat about Zach Shallcross and the 30 aspiring content creators vying for his televised affection on this 27th season of The Bachelor. We give superlatives for most likely to be weirdos, most likely to be lying about their age, and most likely to get the villain edit. So grab your Barefoot Dreams blanket and glass of rosé and join us as we give our predictions about this fresh batch of contestants.
