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.

Welcome to Love to See It, a podcast about how to find love in the midst of a super tiny, no big deal barely even happening COVID outbreak on your reality dating show.

We're moving on Claire, we're moving on from that this week on the bachelor, Zach has broken out of core and is ready to squeeze the filming schedule even tighter to make up for lost time while Greer has quietly vanished into her own isolation chamber.

I assume she will emerge at some point, but not this week.

Plus nudism, witchcraft, traditional Baltic sports, let's get started.

It's just the two of us. I feel like we have a lot to dig into.

I know I'm actually excited. We have even done an episode just the two of us in a little while and we both love to talk.

Yeah, so nice to get this intimate one on one time.

So let's dive in. We're in Tallinn, Estonia. It's not every day that the bachelor falls in love in the scenic European city where I have personally been as a 12 year old with my grandma and two cousins on a Baltic sea cruise.

Same vibes, I assume.

Yeah, it's pretty similar outings, you know, group outings and lots of just sort of Americans being like, whoa, there are castles here. It was that sort of vibe.

It's so funny. The bachelor is kind of like a cruise. I mean, there is a reason that they were able to film the bachelor at on a cruise ship. It's just there's just synergy there.

Yeah, it truly is. I'm not joking in a lot of ways the same vibes except you're sharing a room with your grandma and you know, that's a little bit different.

Brooklyn feels like they're in the movie frozen. It's cold and there are castles. Show me the light Claire. I mean, she makes a great point.

And for every experience you can have in the world, there is a Disney movie that can make that clear. That's what they hope. Yeah.

Meanwhile, Zach needs an exit interview from his COVID quarantine. So Jesse Palmer meets him for coffee to sort of reintroduce him to the world and let him know what's happened while he was gone.

It's like, I know that whole week was super tough. Hope you're doing okay. And then he gives Zach some devastating news. I think we have a clip.

Well, I do have some news. Unfortunately, career also is feeling a bit under the weather. Is she okay? By the way, like, is she, like, she feels fine? She feels fine. Yeah.

Is it dramatic? And she's just in the room. Is it mad at far entertaining? Yeah.

I love that they have decided that they can't say the word COVID. So their new euphemism is feeling a little under the weather. Even if the person is not feeling under the weather.
