Well, it's certainly a choice. This episode features our initial reactions to the announcement that Season 10 of The Bachelor Australia will feature three leads: Felix Von Hofe, Jed McIntosh, and Thomas Malucelli. We outline our initial reactions as well as the information we've been able to gather about the three men, with a primary focus on Malucelli's affiliation with American health and wellness brand Isagenix.

BoH is back, baby! With this episode, we begin the dive into our second Ancient Kisstory miniseries, this time looking at the first ever Australian season of The Bachelor, from all the way back in 2013. We glean what we can about the origins of the local version, including the casting of 30-year-old Sydney-based chiropractor Tim Robards as the first Australian lead, and the ways that production tried to imbue this season with a touch of local flair. Plus - tons of context about the state of the country in 2013, a much-needed Bach World Catch Up, and some very necessary diversions about the fourth movies in animated movie franchises. To hear the rest of this season of Ancient Kisstory, grab two exclusive episodes per month, and to support the show, head to our brand-new page on Patreon! Our next episode will b+e a Patreon sclusey, so don't miss out - CLICK HERE!

Brooke Blurton's season of The Bachelorette has come to a close, and the BoH boys are here to break down a fantastic finale week in rigorous detail. We talk about how these episodes subverted our expectations by not subverting our expectations, while still providing space for some incredible moments that are unlike anything we've ever seen before. We heap praise on guests Amy Thunig and Abbie Chatfield for broadening the conversation, and grapple with the nuances of the decisions that led to Brooke's happy ending. Can you tell I'm trying not to put spoilers in the episode description? Also, stay tuned for a little announcement at the end of the episode.

This week, we welcome back special guest & previous longest-episode record-holder Katie Kendall (Not Making Lemonade) to the pod, for an exhaustive rundown of a massive triple-episode week of The Bachelorette! We engage in some art criticism, discuss some interesting family dynamics, and eulogise some beloved fan faves. Plus, we rip into some pretty big topics - how important is having a career plan? Is this season's focus on bisexual representation leaving other queer groups out of the conversation? And why has the show taken so long to talk about Brooke's foot fetish? Give Katie the BoH Bump: Follow @bachiebitching for Bachie live-tweets, and check out @not.making.lemonade on IG for art, poetry, zines and mental health advocacy!

This week, we're joined once again by Friend Of The Pod Abby Butler (triple j! social media superstar!) for a recap of a single-episode week, which, despite its lack of content, gave us quite a lot to chew on. A Mardi Gras At The SCG group date, a bewildering Paramount sponcon single date, and a couple of intruders (one small and very cold, one very loud and with a big orange wig). Plus, we wildly speculate on some real-life goss involving Konrad and Abbie Chatfield, and share a powerful ballad about the importance of straight people. Give Abby the BoH Bump: find her on Instagram @abbzbutler and TikTok @flabbygutler!

This week, pure good faces off against pure evil as Steve The Human Lie Detector returns to the show, wreaking chaos and leaving suffering in his wake. How is pure, innocent Kurt meant to react? Plus, the forthcoming sequel to a 40-year-old movie sponsors this show populated by 25-year-olds, and we dive deep into the discourse of queer identity, Top Gun, and The Bachelorette. Plus, we attempt the world's longest podcast kiss.

This week, it's the thrilling finale of this chapter of Ancient Kisstory, and our excavation of The Bachelor US Season 1! What high-concept fantasy dates did the producers select for the apex of the season? Who did Alex pick to spend the rest of his life with - and how much of the rest of his life did he spend with her? What became of the happy couple, and what of the scorned cast-off? Why am I pretending nobody has ever Googled any of this information before?

This EEK on the Bachelor of Hearts podcast - it's our annual arbitrary Halloween special! We're joined by journalist & Bachie expert Matilda Boseley to discuss Week 2 of Brooke's season of The Bachelorette - which included a few pretty incredible milestones for representation of queer communities, a rare moment of passionate, slow-burning tenderness, and a Single Date with a contestant who continues to break down traditionally-held ideas of gender roles and toxic masculinity. So, to celebrate another big week in this landmark season, we of course tried to cram our podcast with as many spooky references as the holiday demands.

This week on Ancient Kisstory, we're looking back at the first ever Women Tell All special, to get all the behind-the-scenes gossip straight from the horses' mouths. But since nothing really happened on that episode, we're also presenting an exhaustively researched investigation into Where They Are Now. Was one of the women from this season in Spider-Man? Who was Cyndi Lauper's makeup artist? Who's going to be on the next season of The Apprentice UK? Plus - we conduct a detailed investigation into how many standard drinks of champagne were drunk by each person in season 1, read an excerpt from the Grease Wiki, and urge our listeners to Give Beef To The Boy.

It's a groundbreaking week for the Bachelor franchise - the first episodes starring the first bisexual and first Indigenous Australian lead in the franchise's history have just aired, and believe it or not - they were really good. We're joined by the great Nat Tencic (triple j, The Hook Up), who shares her perspective as a broadcaster who discusses sex, love and relationships on the regular; as a new Bachie viewer, as a bisexual woman, and as someone who recently got to speak to Brooke about her season. We discuss how Brooke is approaching this season head-on, our impressions of the dynamics forming in the cast during the first two episodes, and how (at least so far) the show is rising to the challenge. Plus, did you realise they're actually making history this season?

This week on Ancient Kisstory, we do our best to reckon with the psychosexual gauntlet of The Bachelor's first ever 'Fantasy Suites'. That's right: it's Fuck Week for Alex Michel and his three finalists. How does the show convince us for the first time that this is Going To Be A Thing? How does Alex break it to three women that he's planning to fuck all of them? And can he make it through this week without puking? (no)

We are SO excited that Brooke Blurton's gamechanging season of The Bachelorette is about to begin! Mere hours after the contestants' profiles went live on 10play, we sat down to pull apart what we could glean from them: both the traditional interview questions and night 1 photos, and also from their linked Instagram pages. We make our predictions for who will win, what kind of characters we're likely to see on the show, and who's likely to be Australia's next big anti-vax influencer. Also - a much-needed sidebar for some important chat about a breakfast cereal commercial from 2004.
