Description
A snarky but affectionate dissection of the love we see on-screen – and what it says about all of us. Hosted by culture critics Emma Gray and Claire Fallon, Love To See It is a weekly podcast that recaps reality dating shows like “The Bachelor” and revisits the romantic movies that shape the way we date and love today. We laugh, we cry, we break down every juicy detail and unpack all the weird messages that pop culture sends us about love, sex, and dating.

It’s week 4 of Grant’s “Bachelor” journey, and apparently we’re already almost done. Only ten women remain as they embark on their international leg in Madrid. And the drama is swirling… around Carolina. Zoe has retreated from villainy, and Carolina has emerged. Plus, Rose is still struggling after her own Carolina drama from last week. Which newly-minted matadora will come out on top?

“Love Is Blind” season 8 has begun, and we are moving our LIB coverage over to Love To See It. (Don’t we… love to see it?) Welcome, pod people! In Minneapolis, our daters share some common experiences: going to Catholic school, decorating for Christmas, sometimes wearing sexy Halloween costumes and sometimes wearing silly Halloween costumes, and enjoying popular movies. Plus, there’s an infuriating love square… and at least one contestant with online buzz so bad it ended up on camera.

In week 3 of Grant’s “Bachelor” season, we’re learning more about his unique interests: day trading, dogs, freestyling about private jets, and nurturing women. But which woman is the MOST nurturing? And how will Detective Grant figure it out? By the powers of girl math, we may never know. We also discuss the cultural (and political) impact of the soft girl TikTok trend and her male alter ego: the meme-stock-trading, sports-gambling crypto bro.

It’s week 2 of Grant’s “Bachelor” journey and this man is definitely is NOT on television to advance his music career. If he showed up with a suitcase full of legal pads covered in song lyrics, that’s just because he loves expressing his emotions! Plus, the women are still writing Mrs. Ellis on their backs. And they’re never ever going to stop.

The Bachelor has arrived at the mansion, and so has a no-drama llama who is destined to be disappointed. In “The Bachelor” season 29 premiere, Grant meets 25 beautiful women who *will* make great mothers and *do* love tiny neck scarves. And he’s just looking for love – if, by love, you mean a flower, a kiss, a hug, and a conversation. Will these women be able to give him the love, and family, he’s looking for?
Plus, we discuss Grant’s burgeoning music career. (By this, we mean the mysterious single that suddenly dropped out of nowhere, titled “Party Girls.”)

We finally got New York City hometown hero Jeremy Simon, one of Jenn Tran’s final four, on the pod! We discussed his time on Jenn’s season, his thoughts on the Devin of it all, and what he thinks we can expect from our next Bachelor, Grant Ellis. (Plus, we obviously had to ask him about his AirBNB… which is named Morning Wood.) And we couldn’t let another day go by without discussing the absolutely baffling social rollout of Matt James and Rachael Kirkconnell’s abrupt breakup. After some rank theorizing about what happened with the seemingly happy couple, we discuss Christina Mandrell’s long-awaited wedding to Brayden Bowers – announced with yet another fake-out styled shoot.

It’s cast bios time, baby! Grant’s season of “The Bachelor” is almost upon us, so it’s time to get to know the 25 bachelorettes who will be vying for his heart. We’ve got 6 New Yorkers, 5 health care workers, 4 women who aspire to have marriages like their parents have, 3 women with totally superfluous vowels in their names that make them very Googleable, 2 women with the last name Gupta, and approximately 0 body diversity. But hey – at least there are a handful of women over the age of 30? And they’re all looking for one thing: a man who isn’t a giant liar.

I think Kelsey A looks like Rebecca Romijn.
I love how every conversation you have about nick ends with 'Nickk..'
I think you two are the funniest and most real too. I choose your Bachelor podcast first, before any of the others.
Obsessed with this show!! I love watching reality TV through a race informed, critical viewpoint. This show delves into the sociological implications of the Bachelor franchise and it's fascinating. Been listening for four years and won't stop anytime soon!
Taking yourselves way too seriously! I totally agree about the need for diversity etc but holy cow. Say what needs to be said then MOVE ON. When I want that kind of commentary I'll go to places like NPR. I come to The Bachelor for brainless fun.
I think you need to change the name of your show. I am looking for recaps ..not feminist rants...am I the only one?
The first half of this interview was great! While it was cool to hear from her, the portion with LeNease could've been way shorter.
I agree with some of the other more recent posts. I know you might have to review these shows for you career but it seems lately you watch more for all the ways to point out your platforms than for the entertainment. and there doesnt seem to be any enjoyment. sometimes it is ok to allow a show to be for heterosexual dating. especially since it seems to be pointing out just how off track it has become. maybe some good comes from these shows. and if even some people learn communication dos and don'ts from watching its could be slightly helpful. also, its ok for a heterosexual man or woman to want to find a realtionship and even marriage with another heterosexual. I believe that you both, as well as some of the people you have on your show, are in committed relationships. as a woman we should be free to make choices even if that is choosing to stay home with their children if it is an option and shouldnt be seen as less than.
like your show but you spent sooo long talking about feminism...yes this season is horrible but....
I get what yall are trying to do, but yall take it too far sometimes. Saying someone's hair is great, who HAS AMAZING HAIR, isnt racist. Not every dang word that comes out of someone's mouth is racist. Chill on the racism, feminism before you scew too far, then lose the goodness of what you are trying to do
OMG, please stop saying "like". You can't be taken seriously if you use that word in every sentence.
Nick is so annoying.
pretty sure he said wanker.
"The friendzone isn't a real thing." 😂👏👏👏
