Love to See It with Emma and Claire

In this episode of “Farmer Wants A Wife,” the agricultural dating show goes full pronatalist, as the farmers display their deference to their mamas – and let them have a shot at picking the next women who will clean up after them for no pay. We dig into the show’s deeply conservative vision of motherhood, especially white motherhood, and the fantasy of overflowing wombs the episode weaves for us. Next, we discuss the Netflix crossover reality show “Battle Camp,” a sadistic summer camp featuring stars from “Too Hot to Handle,” “The Circle,” “Squid Game” and more. The show is brutal physically and perhaps even more brutal socially, but at least they’re ruled over by their new god: the wheel of misfortune.

“Farmer Wants A Wife” is in full swing, with the farmers going on solo dates to figure out whether they want a wife who stays home with their 2-3 kids, a wife who stays home with their 10 kids, or a wife with an impressive career they can brag about to their grandkids. Plus, we binged the Hulu show “Got to Get Out,” a competition reality show in which reality stars and regular people try to escape a mansion to steal a shared million-dollar prize. It features several Bachelor Nation veterans (including Susan Noles as Most Likely To Botch An Escape), as well as our new reality enemy: a man known as Doodles.

No reality show reflects our current moment better than “Farmer Wants A Wife,” a show about modern city women who dream of living a wholesome life as a tradwife with four kids and raw milk from their husband’s very own cow. And it’s currently back for season three of the current FOX reboot, featuring Kimberly Williams-Paisley as the host (and ultimate former city girl). Also featured: at least one farmer with rizz and questionable politics, innumerable MAGA Barbies doing farm labor in denim minidresses, and even some classic reality TV villains. The first four episodes of this season have been the liveliest since the reboot premiered in 2023, and we’re loving every minute.

“The end of Grant’s “Bachelor” season finds the franchise in turmoil: “The Bachelorette” is on pause indefinitely, the showrunners and EPs have exited amid complaints of a toxic work environment, and no one has any idea how “Bachelor in Paradise” is going to gracefully combine original flavor and Golden contestants. Where does the franchise go from here? Lizzy Pace of the Game of Roses podcast joins us to discuss the chaotic present and uncertain future of Bachelor Nation. But first, we had to sneak in a gossip sesh to catch up on not one, not two, but THREE brewing Bach Nation beefs.” To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy [https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy] Learn more about your ad choices.

The past few months have brought us a bounty of reality dating shows – and with them, a bounty of reality dating show gossip! For the first part of our show, we’re joined by the TikTok gossip queen behind Storytime with Rikkii and the Reality Receipts podcast, who helps us make sense of all the “Love Is Blind” and “Temptation Island” madness. First, we break down the post-show “Love Is Blind” season 8 drama, including the fallout of Monica calling out Joey and Sara for secretly dating. Then, we react to all the “Temptation Island” tea, along with all the jaw-dropping antics (mainly from Grant) from the unofficial reunion on The Viall Files. Finally, we end with “The Bachelor” news: Grant and Juliana’s post-season press rounds, Litia’s social media ascension, a bunch of ‘Bachelor’ babies, and Katie Thurston’s cancer diagnosis and marriage.
