    I understand BH AI are big fans and personal friends of Chris Harrison but you act like what he did was OK and that he shouldn’t have had consequences. It’s sad that you said you think ABC regrets having him leave. Jesse is awesome. Network TV is just altogether going down. Yes they had some casting issues, but it was already trending down when Chris was still there. Do better. Why not have Rachel L on your podcast?

  • DWTS coverage

    Listening to the DWTS coverage is fun but Deanna for someone who has said multiple times every episode that you’ve never watched and have no dance education or experience, hearing you immediately shut Trista (who has been on the show, who’s daughter dances, clearly she’s immersed in this stuff) down on certain opinions on performances and scores is so annoying and rude. You act like your opinion is truth (ex: about Taylor’s performance) and it’s just painful to listen to.

  • Politics!? 9/18 episode

    Curious, does Deanna Pappas not think ABC is political? Maybe some don’t want to watch a show that’s on ABC because they have shows Iike The View. Fox isn’t the only network that’s political. It’s obvious, Fox just isn’t on the side of politics Deanna aligns herself with. Leave politics off this podcast. There are other podcasts if people want to hear about politics.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Screaming with the Stars (DWTS S35 Ep 8 Recap)
Q: How do you feel about that?
Joan says Jackson's performance communicated the Joker character effectively, while Ezra's acting did not make the story as clear to her.
Screaming with the Stars (DWTS S35 Ep 8 Recap)
Q: Do you feel like that was just like Ezra?
Joan says Jackson's character work and storytelling were clearer, while Ezra did not appear to fully inhabit his role, which may explain the difference in Carrie Ann Inaba's scores.
Bachelor Rewind (Season 4 Ep 4-6)
Q: Did the hometown dates change the way Bob made decisions moving forward?
Yes. Meeting the families strengthened some connections and clarified differences in maturity and future plans. Bob says the visits raised the stakes and made him more intentional about his choices.
Bachelor Rewind (Season 4 Ep 4-6)
Q: Was Bob really known as the most promiscuous Bachelor, and where did the “kissing bandit” reputation come from?
Bob confirms he was called the “kissing bandit.” He says contestants sometimes initiated kisses, production encouraged affection, and kissing helped him assess chemistry.
Bachelor Rewind (Season 4 Ep 1-3)
Q: Is there any backstory to that? Was that just random? Was that planned?
Guiney recalls learning that Meredith Phillips's grandmother had died while he was on his way to pick her up. He says he offered to send her home, but she wanted to stay, so he focused on making the date special.
