Episode 124 Bachelor in Paradise: A Harem of Disgruntled Females (Season 7, Week 5) Sep 16, 2021

Show notes

We are joined by one of our faves… It’s Amanda from Drinking the Kool-Aid Podcast!

This week we see the conclusion of the Brendan and Pieper drama and it ends in a pretty epic disrespectful fashion. We also get our third rose ceremony of the season, with a special rose going to Natasha. We get two new arrivals, who both have their own date card; Blake Monar (who we don’t know) goes on a date with Tia (aka Someone Who Shall Not Be Named) and Dr. Joe Park goes on a date with Natasha. Dr. Joe and Natasha’s date does not end well. We also see some love exchanged between Serena P. and Joe.

This week’s episode was full of ups and downs for the BIPOC points. We saw Natasha and Dr. Joe on a date. We heard from Jessenia, Pieper, Deandra, Maurissa, Riley, Thomas, Tammy, Aaron, and Serena P. We also, briefly, saw Mari, Ivan, and Abigail. Danielle gave 3 points each, for special guests Lil Jon and Tituss Burgess. She takes away 5 points for the over-sexualization of Riley and Maurissa, again. She gives 10 points for Natasha receiving that bonus rose from Paula and Wells, but then takes away 10 points for Brenden still getting between the Natasha / Dr. Joe date. Lastly, she takes away 10 points for the Ivan swerve. We know if Megan and Amanda had their way, the total BIPOC points would be 0 for the Ivan shade! All in all, the total is 59 points in regards to diversity.

Episode 123 True Crime: The Murder of Paige Birgfield Sep 14, 2021

Show notes

Megan wanted to base a story on how Brendan was leading a double life, but this story twisted in a way that Megan was not expecting, so she went with it.

Paige Birgfield was a loving single mother of three young kids who disappeared on June 28, 2007. She was missing for five years before her remains were located, and during the investigation, information comes out that surprises her family and friends… Paige is leading a double life… (Story Starts at: 7:11)

Episode 122 True Crime: The Murder of Vicky Rose Miller Sep 09, 2021

Show notes

We are playing a little catch-up since Danielle has been sick. A couple of weeks ago, we saw two very problematic Victoria’s on our Bachelor in Paradise screen, with Victoria Paul and Victoria Larson. Thankfully they are both gone.

Danielle decides to tell the story of an amazing Victoria that was taken from this life too soon, Vicky Rose Miller. Vicky was a bright and loved young woman, who was trying to find herself and navigate life. She was murdered in May of 1996 in Boynton Beach, Florida and her killer has never been caught. The Boynton Beach Police Department is using new technology, in the form of a podcast, to try to gain leads to catch Vicky’s Killer.

Episode 121 Bachelor in Paradise: For the Clou-T (Season 7, Week 4) Sep 08, 2021

Show notes

We are joined tonight by a special guest, it’s Renise, one of the Black Bachelor Babes! Follow them on Instagram, IMMEDIATELY.

There was so much that happened in these four hours. The main focus of our conversation, and the conversation on social media, is the triangle between our Queen Natasha, Pieper, and Brendan. The way that Brendan treated Natasha is incredibly hurtful and manipulative.

Both Megan and Danielle admit they were wrong and make public apologies. Megan’s apology is to Natasha herself, and Danielle’s to the listeners about her former stanning of Brendan (Megan also joins in this apology).

AND THEN to watch a very similar triangle play out between Chris, Jessenia, and Alana… where everyone runs to Jessenia’s side, really makes us want to hug Natasha. We also chat about Joe and Kendall, plus the Kenny, Demi, Tia, and Mari square.

Monday's episode gets 40 BIPOC points. We saw Pieper on a date, heard from Serena P., Abigail, Mari, Jessenia, and Natasha. We also saw Deandra, Thomas, Maurissa, Riley, and Ivan. On Tuesday we saw Chris, Chelsea, Aaron, and Thomas go on dates. We heard from Mari, Tammy, Maurissa, and Riley. We also saw Ivan, Serena P., Abigail, Deandra, and Natasha. Danielle gave bonus points for our new host, Tituss Burgess, and bonus points for the BIPOC contestants invited to the VIP group date. The total for Tuesday is 87.

The Assassination of John F. Kennedy: September 2021 True Crime Patreon Exclusive Sep 07, 2021

Show notes

This is a sneak peek of our September 2021 True Crime Patreon Exclusive content.

You can hear the full episode here, starting at the $3 level of our Patreon membership!

Content Warning: Discussion of child death and stillborn child

This month, Megan tells the prequel to the Trial of Jacob Rubenstein; this is the story of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. While his assassination is one of the most widely covered stories in the history of true crime, there are so many conspiracy theories that surround it. We dive into some of them. There are also many tangentially related true crime stories that, in all honesty, could be their own full story… Maybe we’ll cover them someday?

Episode 120: Bachelor in Paradise: Danielle Woke up to Violence (Season 7, Week 3) Sep 02, 2021

Show notes

Danielle is not feeling great this week, and when she fell asleep, she woke up to straight violence on the beach.

This week is so chaotic, all the couples that you thought were strong are decidedly NOT strong. Mari wants to be able to go on dates with other people, which Kenny doesn’t really like, but then seems to hit it off with Demi. Chris Conran and Chasen enter, they have a double date card and they take Jessenia and Deandra. Grocery Store Joe and Serena P have a one-on-one date. Demi gave Kenny a cake for his birthday, Mari is not a fan of this and throws the cake in the fire, which very much upsets Riley, because he just wanted to eat the cake, damn. Aaron and Tammy are not doing well either, especially not after she chooses Thomas over Aaron. Karl gives Deandra a bracelet so Chasen has to one-up him and give her a necklace, which leads to a confrontation. Tre self-eliminates, then Tahzjuan self-eliminates. And then Becca Kufrin walks in. Noah and Abigail may be just friends? Someone, who may also be known as Tia Booth, comes in and she takes Kenny on a date which neither Mari nor Demi appreciate. And finally, Kendall arrives and makes a beeline to talk to Joe.

Pure chaos this week! OH, MAN.

Episode 119 True Crime: The Murder of Deborah Gardner Aug 27, 2021

Show notes

Last week was the premiere of Season 7 of Bachelor in Paradise! So this week, Megan talks about a murder in Paradise.

Deborah Gardner was a stunningly beautiful Peace Corps Volunteer, who was assigned to teach high school science and home economics in the Polynesian Kingdom of Tonga. While there, Deborah was harassed, stalked, and murdered by a fellow Peace Corps Volunteer. (Story starts at: 8:06)

We also chat about why the workweek is the way it is, 9 to 5 and 5 days a week, hint: it's from the Industrial Revolution and it’s due for a change. Danielle also has a new podcast recommendation (Algorithm), and a new tv show (The Chair on Netflix) recommendation for all of us to check out.

Episode 118 Bachelor in Paradise: Sad Boi Summer (Season 7, Week 2) Aug 26, 2021

Show notes

We are joined by special guests Abi and Aaron of Say Your Goodbyes Podcast! Buckle up because there are FOUR HOURS of content to discuss.

We see our new host from *NSYNC, Lance Bass! We see Demi and Brendan on a date and he swerves her HARD. Jessenia and Ivan basically fall in love. Serena P and Thomas go on a date - which causes lots of Sad Boi Grocery Store Joe content. We also see a date for Riley and Maurissa, which causes a lot of Sad Boi Cat Man Connor content. Lastly, we get pure comedic gold from Queen Tahzjuan!

Please don’t hate Danielle, she lost her paper with the points for Monday’s episode! For that episode, she did give 3 bonus points to Pieper, since she wasn’t even on the beach but everyone was talking about her. For Tuesday night we had a total of 64 points! We saw 4 BIPOC dates with Thomas and Sarena P., plus Riley and Maurissa. We heard from Aaron, Tre, Tahzjuan, Tammy, Karl, Abigail, Jessenia, and Natasha. We only saw Mari, Deandra, Brendan (let’s face it, he didn’t say much), and Ivan. Danielle took away 10 points for the Riley and Maurissa date. We have concerns about the way the date was depicted. We feel that they were hypersexualized for no real reason; between the questions that were asked on a first date, and the rare “boom boom room” sighting. The food choices were depicted as “nasty” or “gross,” but these foods are eaten around the world, in many communities of color. We definitely felt that there were microaggressions displayed in the interaction.

Episode 117 True Crime: The Murder of Gladys Ricart Aug 19, 2021

Show notes

Last week, we saw the conclusion of the Bachelorette Season 17 with Katie Thurston as the lead. During the After the Final Rose (ATFR) we saw a heated conversation between Katie and Greg, it was the talk of Twitter. Some said that Katie seemed to still be angry to be over Greg and engaged to Blake.

This week Danielle covers the story of an angry ex that turned to murder. Gladys Ricart was from the Dominican Republic, coming to find the American dream in Washington Heights, New York. She started a relationship with Agustin Garcia, a successful Dominican businessman, that turned dangerous. Once Gladys moved on from Agustin, her wedding day, planned with a new man, turned deadly.

(Story starts at 13:03).

CONTENT WARNING: Domestic Violence

We also chat about hard words provided by our friends Maria, Arielle and People Are Wild Podcast. Hummus, Hemorrhoids, and Form/From! We also chat about the risky spelling error or Public and Pubic.
