LTSI Live: Kaitlyn Bristowe’s ‘Bachelorette’ Season w/Sharleen Joynt and Andy Levine

This week, Clayton goes deeper and deeper into a mess mostly of his own making, as he tries to convince his final two to stay and meet his parents. It’s.. a mess. Here to go through this moment of collective rage and trauma and catharsis is Defector Media co-owner and host of Normal Gossip, Kelsey McKinney!

It's time for Women Tell All, a space for sisterhood, empowerment, and putting shine theory into action. Or more like… women insulting each other’s asses and slut-shaming. Here to help us remember a painful evening of The Bachelor is Buzzfeed senior culture reporter and host of The Rise and Fall of Lularoe, Stephanie McNeal!

Sociologist Danielle J. Lindemann joined the pod to talk about her book, “True Story: What Reality TV Says About Us.” Reality TV is a cultural product, and just like any other cultural product, it can tell us so much about ourselves, our social roles and expectations, our values, and the narratives we tell about ourselves and each other. We try to watch these shows critically, and there are a lot of ways to do that. But one way, which we wanted to explore in depth this week, is a sociological lens, which helps us see what these shows, in all their messy glory, reflect and reveal about our society.

Someone has to be thinking about ethics here because no one involved with last night’s episode of The Bachelor was. It’s episode 7 of Clayton’s quest for a wife, and the last week before hometowns. So obviously he had to spend a group date using couples therapy as a tool for measuring and comparing his options. We’re joined by the hilarious Daryn Carp, host of PeopleTV’s Reality Check!

Happy Valentine’s Day! It’s the time of year when we arbitrarily pay even more attention than usual to romantic relationships, and to celebrate, we convinced Claire’s husband Greg and Emma’s boyfriend Adam to join the pod. Our wonderful listeners sent in TONS of questions (thank you!), and we tried to answer as many as we could. We discuss our meet-cutes, our most awkward dates, what it’s like to live with us full- or part-time (sounds exhausting), and what we love most about each other.
