I'm Claire Fallon and I'm Emma Gray and this is Love to See It, an obsessively detailed

recap podcast about reality dating shows like The Bachelor and other pop culture that makes us laugh, cry, and curse the patriarchy.

We can't live with these shows and we can't live without them, but we can break down every juicy moment and unpack all the weird messages these shows send us about love, sex, and dating.

I'm the girl from the stock trop, love and fire. Can you keep up? I like love it.

Welcome to Love to See It, a podcast about 25-year-old woman named Victoria and Olivia, one of whom will definitely get married to Zach Shalcross and have 2.5 beautiful Instagram content producers.

Claire, you know they'll be TikTok content producers, not Instagram. Yeah, they're their mommy TikTokers now. I keep I keep forgetting I'm stuck in the past.

This journey to find 26-year-old, capital and nice guy, Zach and mate can't begin until we meet each of the 30 women he must choose from to spend the rest of his life with or like at least you know a few months.

So today we are digging into those cast bios and a little bit of their Instagrams and their TikToks. Yeah, we tried to dig a little bit beneath the surface. We don't just want to read what ABC is spoon feeding us.

Especially because these bios on the whole pretty boring. It's like they're working against us. Yeah, like clearly written by people who have never interacted with these women.

I am surprised to hear that they should all be like mini profiles like they should assign a journalist to hire journalists. Yeah, they all go out for lunch and they're like she ordered a salad but with fries on the side.

They're like her rice smile. She looked up from the table.

She's like a cloud in in white linen. Her trusses hanging down. So a male journalist. Yeah, male journalists. So let's try to give a brief overview first. I mean this season as we mentioned two Victoria's two Olivia's those are the only multiple names.

Long way since the season of like three Lawrence and I think closer and closer to a world in which every contestant is named Isabella or Sophia.

It just you know the generational shift in it's happening. It's just so obvious.

And unsettling to me as someone from a generation of Lawrence.

Yeah, where are the Lawrence and Jessica's seriously those names are comforting to me.

They make me feel like I belong. We have two place names Brooklyn and Holland. I will say these women are not from Brooklyn or Holland, which I guess makes sense because why would you name your child Brooklyn if you lived in Brooklyn.

But it still feels weird because it makes you think of New York City and then you read her profile and she's like she's a literal cow. She's a car.

She felt very confused. What's more Brooklyn than like a barrel race. They're at rodeos. And we have one virtue name charity.

Don't see that every day. My dad loves virtue names. I think I came pretty close to having a virtue name myself. Can you imagine which one I'm not exact. I think like hope or something.

I don't think charity. Wow. Can you imagine though you hope no not faith. I don't think you would have gone faith. That's too like Christian country singer.

I was also almost a Hannah. So. I'm fact about me. It's a sweet name. I could see it. So there are 30 women. I would say over half are white or appear to be white.
