We told you we would talk Golden Bachelor, and we didn’t forget! We cover what we loved, what made us cry, and what maybe wasn’t so “golden” after all. We muse about what made this new Bachelor show so special, and wonder if it airing with Paradise gave the mess on the beach a bad look. Then we dive into the dirt of the couples remaining in Mexico. People are dropping like flies after hard truths and broken hearts. The remaining two couples take us to the fantasy suites and then on to predictable engagements… but maybe their ending isn’t so “happy” after all. Naturally we have to spill the tea on how these couples are doing now. We wrap it all up discussing what we will be covering on the pod next! We are SO PUMPED. (Pun intended)

This week we are thrilled to wrap up our Great British Baking Show coverage with the season 14 semifinals and finale! We start with a rough Patisserie week to watch, where we lose Tasha to a lame laminated Showstopper. We are then left with Matty, Josh, and Dan in the finale. Despite our disappointment with an all-male finale, we were thrilled to see some fun challenges like eclairs and a forgotten lardy cake. We wrap up the whole season with layered cakes reflecting the bakers’ “first bakes”, and are thrilled to see who the judges "leaned" toward for the win. Paradise gave us a weird 35 minutes before next week’s finale... We are confused (as are many of the couples) and wonder how we are going to manage to wrap up this season with the remaining couples. Guess we will ready our tequila and find out!

This week we are making up for a missed podcast and covering the last two episodes of Great British Baking Show and Paradise! Dessert week leaves us with technical tears and questionable bombs, so thank goodness that party week delivered with fun challenges like sausage rolls and no-beige buffet spreads! Meanwhile in Mexico, everybody be “homie hoppin’”, leaving us with very few solid couples as we approach the end of the season. Katie Thurston comes down to stir things up with a spicy roast that somehow manages to create even more mess on an already very messy beach.

Botanicals week challenges the bakers to achieve that delicate flavor balance using spices and floral notes. Sadly, many bakers leave Paul and Prue wanting with bland bakes. That being said, we’re still dazzled by their floral jellied masterpieces. Paradise seems stuck with too many choices and passive connections. Everyone is homey hoppin’ and heart droppin’! Meanwhile, on Golden Bachelor, Gerry has big decisions ahead. We discuss how this different phase of life shifts the show into higher stakes.

Pastry week was savory and sweet, but also sadly sour! We are mourning the loss of two of our favorite bakers leaving the tent after this crust-filled episode. Due to our busy weeks, we are not quite caught up on Golden Bachelor, BUT we always make time for the mess on the beach in Mexico. Tanner leaves Kat high and dry on her birthday to date and dance with Davia. Kat takes her anger out on a piñata while Rachel and Brayden become piñatas. Loving what Sam and her age are bringing to the beach. It will be interesting to see where the roses land, because none of these love stories seem to be standing the test of time.

This week on Drauma Bonded, we open with controversial first date locations, according to women, and give our hot takes. Then we move into Chocolate week , which left us feeling uninspired. No one really knocked our socks off and Tasha sat out 2 of 3 three bakes. We are starting to find our favorite bakers, even if they aren't in line for Star Baker. Golden Bachelor is back on an upswing with a talent show and a little bit of drama! Paradise continues to give and give with more couples being open than exclusive. This can only lead to one thing: the kind of mess you want and expect from Bachelor in Paradise! We hash out our favorite and most cringe moments this week and speculate on the week to come!

Bread week had us raising our eyebrows this week. Top bakers were struggling to proof their skills… pun intended! Some of last week’s strongest bakers struggled to impress Prue and Paul with their bread-making abilities, leaving us shocked to see who would be leaving the tent. We find the beaches of Paradise messy as ever, and follow the trail of men’s tears to all of the drama between Kat and Brayden and another abandoned Will. We hope Sam is able to get some things out of her system, and that the Golden Bachelor comes up with some better group dates for these fabulous women.

WE’RE BACK AT IT AGAIN! And we are shaking things up by covering one of our favorite bright spots in life, The Great British Baking Show! We don’t want to be just a Bachelor podcast, so we are going to try something new and cover whatever show we are currently most excited about.
Don’t worry, we are still watching everything Bachelor, and will be tacking on some fun hot takes and updates after our GBBO content. To get caught up, we are tackling cake week and biscuit week in this episode! What’s messier, Amos’s orca cake or Will’s first day in paradise?

This week on Drauma Bonded, we are still aligned with the The SAG-AFTRA strike. While we are not discussing the Bachelorette, we are excited to discuss some new topics we are passionate about. This week we focus on the fitness world on social media, and how it impacts our relationship with movement and ourselves. We consider the pros and cons of access to so much information, the reasons we follow the accounts we follow, how all of this impacts the way we perceive our own capabilities, and much much more. We hope you find this fitness conversation relatable and helpful!
The Instagram handles discussed this week that we think are a great resource and provide good content are listed below:
@theunderbellyyoga@rozthediva@tacticnutrition@yrfatfriend@meg.boggs@fatangryblackgirl

This week on Drauma Bonded, we are supporting the SAG-AFTRA strike and are taking a week to come up with some fun non-reality TV related topics until the strike is resolved.

This week on Drauma Bonded, we are all over episode 3 of Charity’s season! Brayden always has a lot to say, so naturally, we have a lot to say in response. Charity is charmed by Brayden saying “he’ll try”, but the rest of the men are not convinced. The men really leaned into the Barbie date, but only Sean achieved the ultimate Ken status (all in the hair). Aaron plays the part of “right reasons” police, and attempts to open Charity’s eyes to Brayden’s lack of intention. But those rose-colored glasses are locked on those dangly earrings for at least another week!

This week on Drauma Bonded, we are excited to sit down and discuss the second episode of Charity’s season. We got to see the men’s athleticism during a classic Bachelorette “Dodge bowl” showdown, but they can’t compete with the record-breaking kiss between Joey and Charity! Brayden doesn’t seem to understand that Charity is dating 18 other men and keeps threatening to pack his bags. (K BYE!) Meanwhile, Adrian hates fun. Charity has a lot to balance going into episode three!
