Welcome to Bachademia. Danielle and Kim in the house and we are ready to tear it up. The Bachelorette is down to the final 6 and we have opinions. LOL.
Before we jump into things: this week they went to NOLAâ which is one of my favorite places. My question is this: is there a city that youâd just refuse to go to?
Recap: The episode begins with Joey and Charity going on a one-on-one in NOLA . They do lots of NOLA like things: horse ride. Beignets. Then they have dinner and Charity brings up that hometowns are soon and asks Joey his position on being in an interracial relationship. He says some generic stuff that seems good enough for Charity, he tells he is falling in love, he gets a rose. Then we have a two on one with Tanner and Sean. Here we meet Captain Tomâ I guess they had the city date and now they are having their Cajun date and alligators. Sean is outgoing and a bit obnoxious. Charity mostly seems to like it over Tanner being an introvert. Sean is there to hit his goalsâ which is Charity. Charity decides not to give out a rose but also not send them home. Tanner is relieved. Sean is upset. This kicks off his downward spiral.
Back at the hotel, Aaron is also starting to unravel. He wanted a date darnit and this is his hometown. But Dotun gets the next one-on-one. They do a fun run. They are lovely together. He says heâs falling in love. He gets a rose.
Sean continues to spiral and decides he needs answers and the answer is Charity is just not into him. He goes home. This leaves Xavier, Aaron, and Tanner to go on a date. At this point it is pretty clear that Tanner isnât coming out of this with a rose.
Xavier admits he may not be ready to commit to one person. I think this is going to come back up which is a bummer because he knits but he makes it through.
Tanner goes home. End of episode. Honestly pretty low-key episode.
So letâs get into ti:
Joey: What are your thoughts about his response to her question about interracial relationships? Realistic or doods never thought about it?Whatâs wrong with Tanner?Aaron- is his unraveling a red flag?Xavier- any chance? Kimâs Korner: Running as a date/Families who 5K/My body wonât let me run anymore and Iâm sad (laugh cries)Iâm going with Dotun and Joey as the final two. Your predictions? -

Welcome to Bachademai! Bill and Danielle here today! Woof was there some Braydon drama this week and Bill and I are going give our best bachademia insights on this hot mess. But before we begin
Question of the day: Which barbie are you?
I did a quiz from buzzfeed and this is what I got
You are Anneliese! (Who is this? is this a real Barbie?)
Just like Princess Anneliese, you are kind and loved by all for your constant desire to help others. You can be a little naĂŻve at times but that's only because you've lived a bit of a sheltered life. That shouldn't let anyone fool you, though, because you are very smart and specifically love science. You are the definition of "prim and proper" and always act to the benefit of others...even if that means putting your own interests aside. Overall, you're smart, loving, and incredibly kind.
Recap:
Questions:
Phew. Given you are our relationship expert, were those red flags we saw on Breydenâs one-on-one? (Did you see Charityâs tweet: Two of my facoite things: black eyes and red flags?)Why do you think the guys got so upset with Sean? Warranted? The internet loves Xavierâs knitting. Knitting is it an aphrodisiac? Xavier or John, who you dating? (WEll, you know what i mean)Billâs Banter? Why was WAwrickâs dates so awkward???Is what Breydenâs saying wild and a red flag or we all playing under Bachelorette rules? How long do you think he will last.Any remaining insights? Shout out - Gravesend, New York -
Welcome to Bachademai! Yâll got me and Kim coming at you with all the deep insights on this season of the Bachelorette. Howâs it going Kim? So hear me out, there is something about this seasons contestants that feel very boy band to me. I donât know if it is all the 90s hair or what. Kim inspired me to read the Jessica Simpson autobiography earlier this year, so I feel like I learned a lot about boy bands.
Question of the day: If you were able to organize a boy band and produce their music what would you name the band?Recap:Letâs start with the Aaron B date. Thoughts on the double-sided coin. Romantic or a little magician-y? Also, Hollywood Sign date: cool or boring?Dodge Bowl: Thoughts on the speedos? Caleb, Adrian, Xavier. Who deserved MVP? Thoughts on John getting the group date rose? Thoughts on Adrian. Should he be dishing out stuff about Braydon?The Record Breaking Kiss. Do you think she and Joey have a thing for each other? (I think heâs the puppy dog of the season. Remember the weird but completely smitten magician a few seasons back. Like you know heâd do anything for Charity but it feels one sided).Kimâs Corner-Weâre doing a full on boy band deep dive, baby!Chapstick. Danielleâs random notes:Braydon is really riding on that first impression rose high. Aaron B- Gets a one-on-one. Old school music or contemporary beats. Military backgrounds.Thoughts on a double sided coin? Hollywood sign date: cool or boring? Charityâs therapist background really shows itself in the way she asks questions.Hear me out: so many of these guys have strong boy band vibes. What do you think that means for the guyâs relationship in the house? Dodge Bowl. Thoughts on the speedos. Can we at least appreciate the 90s colors. I canât believe we are doing this when Yosef has a daughter at home! I love the crowd almost gets nailed with the balls. Xavier rocking his camp dodge ball skills. I wanna know more about their sharpie tats.Caleb is definitely a wild waters raft instructor in Colorado, right? Or heâs in WWE. Itâs a toss up. OMG He really is a pro wrestler. The Bachelorette, breaking stereotypes with complex characters. Adrian MVP.John-bball. Heâs super cute.I really appreciated their conversation about what a rose represents. Adrian is a man. He has a daughter. Serious vs. Play. Did Adrian stir up drama? What it warranted. Kiss record breakingâ Joey thoughts? I feel like Joey is the puppy dog of the season. Heâs the really sweet guy that is just smitten with Charity Sean- so youâve made out with her longer than I spoken with her so that sucks. LOLBrayden is way too mentally fragile for this. It is episode 2 and heâs unraveling. Lord. Yaâll these men and their chapstick. Brayden/Adrian Dramaâ thoughts? Rose ceremony: I was so sad Harvard boy with the beautiful lashes went home. -
