Recent Reviews
  • mrsarmani
    Meh
    She talks over her guests u can’t hear them she abruptly ends the podcasts doesn’t wrap anything up. Cud use lots of help in journalism questions as well; they are very remedial.
  • kvank16
    Eh could be better
    This used to be entertaining and fun but now I feel like Sarah’s takes are often so negative and just her putting others down. There are much better Bachelor podcasts out there.
  • tsizzle4673
    Doesn’t belong in podcasting
    Sadly I love her but her podcast isn’t great. Nothing is conversational, so robotic and lacking any banter.
  • Jj jelled
    No more.
    Please! No more Katie Thurston. Her time is up. She still seems so thirsty.
  • jozcheeto2022
    Artist
    Love your podcast! You are a good interviewer and your recaps are jam-packed. But the opening song to Gerry’s season was sung by the great Cat Stevens and not the equally great James Taylor!
  • NursJo
    Slow Down
    Speaks waaayyyyy too fast and rambles. Just slow down and breathe between your thoughts. Podcast will be much more smooth and enjoyable to listen to.
  • Lolo13419
    Andrew Spencer - great person
    He seems very sincere and genuine. That was a great interview!
  • bachfan1986
    “Of it all” speaking tick
    I love this podcast and the great interviews. However, Sarah has a speaking “tick” where she says “of it all” so many times in each episode (such as “We need to get to the Gabi of it all….”). It doesn’t add anything and unfortunately becomes so distracting that it takes away from the content. Can she please try to use that phrase less?
  • lindsaycn
    Spoiler ALERT
    So mad. I’ve been avoiding the Bachelorette spoiler and Sarah just said it with no warning at all. Doesn’t matter if it’s not surprising or if you thought it was just a rumor! Argh! Also, I know others have said they like Dr. Darcy, but since she doesn’t actually watch the show, I do not find her a good guest.
  • Melnuss2002
    Favorite
    Definitely my fav of the recap podcasts. Sarah is most genuine and straight forward with info. Easy to listen to. Enjoy!
  • TAHelton
    Thank goodness!!! LOL
    I just listened to the Jan 11th episode and breathed a sigh of relief when you stated that y’all would not be airing the YouTube version anymore going forward for the podcast content. Thank you. I actually love that’s it’s mainly just Sarah, with the occasional guest. I’ve gotten used to her fast talking ways (LOL) and love the content.
  • CyndyM12
    God awful swiping sound!
    While I appreciate the attempt at the production upgrade, and enjoy the additional voice, what’s with that god awful swiping sound in the background? It literally is making it unlistenable to me. At first I thought they were standing outside and there was traffic going by. Going to have to Unfollow if that doesn’t stop. Not sure who thought that was a cool element to add to the show! Ugh.
  • massstripgirl
    Not getting facts straight…
    The guest saying Serene was on Matt James season 😂😂 get your facts straight
  • Gaga.1117
    Ugh
    Marked difference in recent episodes. The conversation is so fast, I thought it was 2x. Last several months are similar and can’t listen.
  • cleigh34
    Whoosh sound
    I enjoy this podcast but on the the “whoosh” sound on the year’s recap episode was very distracting. It was every 5 seconds and I eventually had to turn the show off. Hoping that’s not a new part of the show. Otherwise, love Sarah!
  • megvictoria
    2022 Recap
    in the bachelor 2022 recap, that ‘swooshing’ sound was used SO much. too much. please don’t use that sound again. it made the podcast very hard to listen to.
  • Dadandmomrock555
    Don’t enjoy the host
    Sarah asks way too many questions at once. I really started to notice this with the Susie interview. She asks like 5 questions in one go. No wonder the episodes are so short- it’s so fast paced.
  • wickmankat
    Great! But not most recent
    The most recent YouTube episode was un-listenable. There was a swishing noise the whole time, and I had to turn it off because it was grating. Otherwise, great podcast.
  • ohhhaiii.byyeee
    Ashley and Jared
    5 stars for you Sarah. But the Ashley and Jared episode was hard to listen to! Nothing on your end.. I, myself, have 3 little ones but if I have a SCHEDULED work meeting/obligation, I make sure to have child care. It was so hard to listen to at times. They could have maybe took turns or something if it wasn’t baby’s nap time.
  • Lancaster forever
    No to Zach reality
    Never have Zach reality on again. He acts like he’s too cool now that he’s friends with all these people.
  • Ali8DC
    Favorite
    This is one of my favorite Bachelor podcasts. I prefer discussions from someone who is not from the show discuss the show. It’s more relatable. Great job each week!
  • Heyjuliejules
    Caila who?
    Caila quinn sounds so rehearsed and so annoying to listen to.. NEXT
  • M.E.M.B
    Love this podcast!
    Love the podcast and Sarah’s commentary and opinions. She’s a great interviewer and so interesting to listen to, even just by herself without guests. Just not a fan of certain guests they bring on. I can’t stand when people comment on the show in platitudes or to just sound good, like the Caila Quinn episode this week. I prefer guests that have more real and raw takes on the recaps. Had to stop listening to Bachelor Happy Hour because of this reason. Otherwise love the show!
  • Aimetx
    Rant episode
    I really like this podcast and Sarah but this rant episode was hard to listen to. Sarah talked way too fast and she constantly does the thing where the end of every sentence goes up. I was cringing while listening.
  • Wakaywa
    Rachel and Gabby Interview
    Just one suggestion. Fewer games equals more time for your guests to tell us about the cruise ship.
  • AllisonWonderland22
    Jesses episode
    He basically told us a whole lot of nothing 😂 so there’s that.
  • JossAC23
    ABC Cam
    Thank you! Thank you for interviewing Cam and create awareness of this Illness. I have only heard about him in the Almost Famous podcast. No other have said anything about his journey and now surgery. He is so brave and it is awful how he was treated in the franchise.
  • bachelor_fan
    Low effort, poor sound quality
    Generally a low effort podcast. Often sounds like they’re recording this podcast while they’re driving. It also seems like they record this podcast when they have a free 20-30 minutes throughout the day.
  • Akajodie
    The sound quality makes this almost unlistenable.
    The most recent episode - what was the annoying clicking!!?? Wow - do better US Weekly
  • Daffodils35
    Dr Darcy
    I need more Dr Darcy, please have her back!
  • KatJane111
    No
    Not a fan of this podcast. Sarah talks so fast that sometimes I think I hit the double speed button by accident. I don’t like the rapid fire interview style as there’s no follow up to the guests answers.
  • RPSS194
    She’s All Bach!
    Love this pod so much more after the She’s All Bach episode/show recap. I was cracking up. Also I’m really enjoying Clayton’s season so please keep doing these kinds of recaps!
  • LightnessOfBerlin
    Thanks for Having Game of Roses!!!
    So great to hear from BachelorClues and Pacecase!!!
  • Allie*B.
    Great interview w/Kaitlyn
    Love this pod and love Sarah. Kaitlyn is such a great interview. Loved that you got the Shawn Booth question in! 👏🏼
  • MiABu
    Tough listen
    Talks to fast all the time - it’s like a speed podcast
  • $$$$&;&;$$
    Really good
    Engaging host, clearly well prepared for interviews and asks the questions we want to know the answers to. The only bachelor podcast I listen to
  • GF Carrie
    F-bombs are uncalled for.
    I will no longer be listening to this podcast. The guest from the Sex and the City podcast is crude and crass. You are representing US Magazine with this language? It sounds like trash. So unprofessional. Peace out.
  • "Linda The Real Countess!"
    Im getting so frustrated !!
    I know I’m not the only one who’s voiced their opinions on the rapid fire information coming from Sara , why doesn’t anyone seem to care that she doesn’t seem to try to slow down ? She has the ability, and can do it in interviews. Since this keeps happening , it feels like she just doesn’t care of loosing subscribers . I’ll give it one more shot , and if she continues talking so fast and keeps disrespecting the subscribers wishes , I’m going to unsubscribe. Maybe this doesn’t matter to her , I don’t know . It’s a good show for content , but the way it’s delivered it’s hard to understand the content as she rips it 100 mph .
  • Kronsche
    Not interesting
    It’s pretty obvious they are only getting all these guests because they want to be in the magazine, cuz it sure ain’t from their podcasting skills
  • Diana2013
    Good podcast
    I like this podcast and the host, but not sure if I can continue listening if she doesn’t slow down - she talks TOO fast. She addresses this in the last episode and talked slower for a few minutes, but then started talking really fast. It was really hard to keep up. Please slow down so I can continue listening to the podcast. 💛
  • Mjudwfyggy
    Highly entertaining
    Thank you, Sarah, for understanding our desire to dig deep into Bachelor nation-you rock!
  • Hhhiygrt
    Trump being hilarious
    He is….deal with it! Biden is hilarious too but I’m a different way 🤣😂
  • spidina
    Speaks too fast.
    Please please please slow down. It’s like you drank 5 Red Bull’s and I literally had to slow the speed to half speed. I suggest you listen to journalist or reporters who can speak at a comfortable pace. I had to stop listening 10 minutes in.
  • mkatzz
    Fun content & great host
    Recent listener of this podcast and can’t get enough of Sarah’s outgoing and bubbly personality! She has great rapport with the guests and this show pairs wonderfully with my bachelor obsession. Makes my workday go faster and love to hear it.
  • jodie smith the third
    Confused
    Don’t understand how this is supposed to be a recap..... when you missed basically all the highlights of the episode
  • missy brock
    New questions?
    I love love this podcast. You are just so down to earth and have a great interview skills. But I need to ask a favor, could you please find some different questions to ask your bachelor alum? Who really cares if they wish they had more and more comfortable shoes🤣maybe it’s time to mix it up a little LOL
  • Kesler0506
    Best Bachelor Podcast
    Look forward to listening to this weekly podcast, and love the additional updates when big news comes out! Love Sarah’s energetic and fun personality. She speaks clearly and the pace is perfect. The podcast is the perfect pairing to the episodes!
  • christinelh28
    Love it!
    Perfect for my long car rides. Great takes and great pace. Will keep listening for sure!
  • Ctos137
    Bad information
    Obviously this podcast has outdated and inaccurate information. They need to check out Reality Steve for the real scoop!!
  • Little. Angel
    Matt’s a player
    You better check out Reality steve. Pretty interesting things that clearly oppose what your reporting.
