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 tropa, can you keep up? I like love it.

Welcome to Love to See It, a show about separating the man from the boys. And Zach Schalgross, he is a man or so we are told repeatedly.

He's a man with bad bitch energy. Yeah, I think bad bitch energy is what sets apart a man from a boy that I'm like, pecks, I'm pretty sure I think we can all agree.

Joining us to recap this week is longtime friend of the pod and star of the instantly iconic horror movie Megan, the great Alison Williams, Alison. It is so good to have you back on the pod.

Thank you so much for having me. It's such a blast to be back in this world of soapy torsos and distinction between men and boys legal men.

We can't stress it enough. This is a man very much a man very man. Very man. Very man. And he's definitely old enough to consent to be treated as America's punching bag.

They just want to make that very clear. Poor Zach. We're going to we're going to try to be a little more positive this episode just because it's making me too sad.

Why does anyone do this? It's a human rights violation. I think that more and more every season we cover it. So just the look on his face is just.

You know torture anyway, you've just got to be imagining that you're going to be the one guy who comes through it and is somehow a fan favorite.

And you're just set for life. That's why they have to bring Sean low in there like remember this guy.

Yeah, they've like 10. Yeah, that could be you. You can eat that could be you. But any woman who's attracted a problematic narcissist will know that that whole idea of like maybe I'll be the exception. I'll change him. I'll get in there.

Yeah, never were the answers. No, no, I guess in that analogy, Zach is the girl attracted to problematic male narcissists and the bachelor's a problematic male narcissist, which honestly feels right on that works.

That's like one of the most accurate metaphors I've ever heard. Thank you so much. That's what the English major was for who's all working toward that.

Let's get into this because the dates finally start this week. And so we've got a lot to dig into. I started to learn some of the women's names this week, not all still working on it.

Say look, we're only on week two. There's time.

The ladies are finally moving in moving on up to a deluxe Tuscan style mansion in Malibu. They're spreading out in their new digs. Katie's like I feel like the luckiest girl in the world and who wouldn't if you got to share a regular guy who likes frozen pizza with 19 other women while living in

Malibu. And she called the lady's place ever. And football. Yes, those go with outside. Don't forget Zach's other two personal. I'm 100% positive that when he prepared that speech. I know the last week, he remembered it as the three F's.

Oh, yeah, yeah, it's a nama. The three F's was his short hand in his own head. And he's like, just don't just say the three F's to the women. And you're just just remember to swap faith for. I know I'm like, you took faith family football. And you decided that faith was the one you

were going to switch out. For our room. I mean, risky. Read the crucifix. Exactly. One woman jokes about how she wants to jump in the hot tub and get wet. And then immediately like blushes and get so embarrassed. And is like, that sounded wrong. I'm like, it didn't.
