Hello, everyone. Before I get to the podcast, I want to give you a quick heads up about my summer book list that is being compiled as I speak.

I know I said that last week, but it actually really is happening. Now, make sure to check out my socials in the next few days so you can send me your recommendations on what books you believe are quintessential reading.

I've worked on this book list for years. That's plural, years, and just divided into titles and

categories and titles by author. Plus, because I love y'all so much, I've included Amazon

links to each of those books. And the best news is that the list is totally free. Make sure

to hit me up and tell me your favorites speaking of favorites i'm excited to have some guy

in austin back to discuss what we've all been waiting for since we found out that katie is our

next bachelorette it's time to meet the 29 suitors who left their marketing and insurance

and entrepreneurial and former baseball player jobs to try their hand at love on a hot

mess of a reality dating show. Some guy and Austin and I break down our favorites, our dark

horses, and the jack wagons who we feel will parade around the mansion in New Mexico like

they own the place. I'm looking at you, Gabriel.

Hey everyone, I'm Lindsay and welcome to the I Hate Green Beans podcast. During each episode, I'll be

discussing television, movies, music, and books with friends who love pop culture as much as I do.

For those of you wondering, yes, we will be talking about the Bachelor franchise.

And no, I do not want to try your grandmother's famous green bean cassero recipe.

But thanks for offering.

Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

It's episode 216 of the I Hate Green Beans podcast.

I'm your host, Lindsay Ray.

I'm here with some guy in Austin.

And we're going to talk Bachelorette, season 17, with Katie.
