Welcome to Here to Make Friends, a half-post podcast about the Bachelor franchise, where we lovingly snark on the Bachelor and Bachelor adjacent shows.

Whether you love the Bachelor or love to hate it, we're here to break down every single delicious moment with you.

I'm Emma Gray and I'm Claire Fallon.

Surprise! It's us, Beck, in your podcast feeds. It's the off-season, but we have a special treat for us and for you today.

If you've been following along with our live shows, we've been recapping Season 1 of the Bachelor.

And we have our very last live show coming up on November 21st at the Bell House in Brooklyn.

That's next Thursday. Not Thanksgiving.

Not Thanksgiving week. We will be recapping the finale of Season 1 with actress and friend of the pod, Erin Dark, and a super freaking exciting surprise guest who is a major player in Season 1.

Seriously, you don't want to miss this. It's going to be such a party.

Yes, tickets are still available. You can get them at the bellhouseny.com. We'll also put the link in our show notes. And like Emma said, it's going to be so fun.

We had an amazing time at our first Bell House show this summer. We're really excited to go back. And we're really excited to talk to our surprise guest.

If you've been watching Season 1 along with us, this series, or if you've ever watched it, I think you'll want to hear from this person.

To really prep you for that finale episode, we're doing a special bonus episode on the very first Women Tell All.

There is a lot to say so much.

It's kind of sad that we didn't have space in our tour schedule to do a live Women Tell All episode.

But it's a different format from the other episodes, obviously.

So it makes sense for us to do it in a different format as well.

So let's just dive in. We have 23 women back. They've been rejected and they're back to talk to each other and be slightly bullied by Chris Harrison.

Chris was not quite the polished gentleman. He's really grown.

He has. He's a young, a young, faceless man, just like trying to be funny at the wrong moments, which we can relate to.

We have Lisa Paula, Christina Denise, Wendy, Jill, Danielle, Angela, Jackie, Kathy, Melissa, Shannon, Rachel, Angelique, Alexa, Rhonda, Amber, Christina, Katie, Amy, Linice, Kim, and Tina.

So the women are kind of scattered around, you know, not in bleachers like they are now.
