Welcome back to another episode of our podcast all about the ABC reality series The Bachelor and its many spin-offs.
ThePopBreak.com’s Michelle Coraci, who has been recapping all things Bachelor for The Pop Break for years, and co-host DJ Chapman, of Mostly Nitpicking, are back covering the franchise mothership, with season twenty-eight of The Bachelor!
This week, Michelle and DJ cover a finger-lickin’ good episode of the Bachelor. They cover all of the insane drama between Sydney and Maria, which might go down as the lamest feud in Bachelor history. Michelle then pops off on RuPaul’s Drag Race on why a certain elimination has her questioning the show’s decisions.

ABC’s Official Plot Synopsis for The Bachelor Season 28 Episode 3:
As Joey’s journey to love continues, he’s joined by a few familiar faces. First, the ASKN ladies of The Golden Bachelor – April, Susan, Kathy and Nancy – return at the week’s first group date to offer up some advice and help find Joey’s Mrs. Right. Then, one lucky woman hits the beach for a romantic one-on-one date; and the remaining women gear up for a tennis date like none other, guest judged by host Jesse Palmer alongside ESPN’s James Blake and Pam Shriver. Later, Joey decides to spice up the cocktail party, but it’s not all sunshine between the women even at a pool party. Will a heated conversation make enough waves to rock Joey’s confidence in his connections, or will it be smooth sailing?
