459: The Bachelorette Contestant Preview

In this very special two-hour episode, we chat about our new co-bachelorettes Gabby and Rachel and the 32 men competing for their love, social media stardom, and the opportunity to get down on one knee to propose with a donated Neil Lane diamond ring after just eight weeks of knowing one another. We give superlatives for most likely to get into fisticuffs with another contestant, most likely to name drop his mom during a makeout session, and most likely to have a face-off over who has the most luscious brows. Plus, there’s a set of twins, so grab your two bottles of champagne and join us as we give our predictions for what is sure to be the most dramatic season of The Bachelorette yet.  MENTIONSYou don’t have to watch The Bachelorette to enjoy our spoiler-free recaps.
