Summary

Since its premiere in 2002, The Bachelor and The Bachelorette have a combined 44 seasons in the US and have cast an estimated 1,142 hopeful singles. In the 20 years that these shows have been on ABC, they have only cast two individuals that have self-identified as larger. That maths out to an embarrassing 0.17% of contestants. Today on the pod, Jenna and Olivia, two of the founding members of Roses for Everybody are here to talk about their body inclusivity campaign and what change they want to see in the franchise.
