Hey, friends. We have a fun surprise bonus episode for you today. If you couldn't make it to any of our live shows back in June, this one's for you.

Yes, we did. We recorded our final live show, which took place at City Winery in New York City on June 22nd. We recapped the fifth episode of Emily Maynard Season of the Bachelorette, that season 8, with Juliet Litman of Bachelorette Party.

Oh, it was such a dream to finally recap the Bachelorette with one of the original Bachelorette recap podcasters. One of the great.

Yeah. And we had just a blast doing this live show. We wanted to make sure that all of our listeners got a taste of it, even the ones who do not live on the East Coast because we cannot bring ourselves to leave these coast.

We're sorry, but here is this recording as a piece offering. If you get the urge to watch the episode we're discussing before after listening, you can find it on Hulu along with the rest of the season. And it is a great season. We highly recommend.

It really is. This will also be Claire's last episode for a while as she has gone on maternity leave. Don't worry, she will be back this fall.

And I will be missing you all and eagerly listening to all the recaps about charity and paradise and the golden bachelor and like weeping that I'm missing this bananza of bachelor content during this this very special time.

And now let's revisit a very important episode in bachelor history, the one when iconic Bachelorette Emily Maynard went all West Virginia hood rat backwards on Kaylyn's ass. Hope you enjoy.

Oh my gosh. Hello, that trips to the stage is so short. Hi, everyone. Hi, New York.

It is so nice to be home. We're so excited to be here with all of you. And we have made it to this show truly just under the wire. Like by under the wire, I mean Claire's water breaking.

It could happen at like any time possibly tonight. If you're upfront, please be careful.

You've been warned personally, I'm pulling for it. It's like the most dramatic live show ever.

It would be and it would also be convenient because this venue is actually like 15 minutes closer to my hospital than my apartment. So I did bring my go bag.

Yeah. So you're welcome. Yeah. So it's actually set up just for that. Yeah.

So it's good to be back in New York. I mean, we live here.

And we did we did our very very first live show ever in New York City back in 2019.

It has collapsed on itself since then. So hard to even even remember. Yeah, it's going on different lifetime.

It feels so good to be back in our favorite city with our favorite people. I assume most of you are our personal friends and family.

We're so sorry.

Thank you for supporting our hobby.

And as love would have it, we are here today recapping with one of our favorite podcasters.

We're so excited. Yeah. This is like a long time coming. She's the head of production at the ringer where she hosts the reality TV podcast bachelor party, as well as food news and ringer dish.
