#31 - Prince Harry/Meghan Markle Interview, Piers Morgan Being the WOAT, Tayshia and Kaitlyn Hosting The Bachelorette

Once again, America has defeated the British Monarchy by spilling the tea. We break down the biggest bombshells of the Oprah interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, discuss our thoughts on each member of the royal family, and dive into the pathetic Piers Morgan situation and his creepy obsession with the Duchess (09:06-40:46). Next up: Bachelor/ABC drama is basically the only constant in our lives at this point, and we have yet another update. It was announced last week that Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe will be co-hosting the next season of The Bachelorette and we’re not mad about it! We’ll take anything as long as it’s not Matt James’ season or Chris Harrison (41:03-49:06). Finally, we bring back our 30-second headlines to frantically cover the weird Jennifer Lopez/Alex Rodriguez relationship drama, what’s happening between Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson, and a fantasy suite episode recap (49:10-53:12). Let’s discuss!

#30 - Jennette McCurdy Quits Acting, Chris Harrison’s GMA Interview, Women Tell All Recap

This pod is a lot like Jennifer Garner, because we’re 13 going on (episode) #30! Here’s today’s roundup: First, we cover Jennette McCurdy’s announcement that she quit acting and won’t be joining the iCarly reboot. Naturally, this led to unpacking all the creepy rumors and foot fetish observations about iCarly creator, Dan Schneider. Can we all just collectively agree to put an end to reboots? (10:46-25:52) Next, a man that seems to grace the news every day at this point: Chris Harrison. He did his first interview since stepping back from The Bachelor with Michael Strahan on Good Morning America. If you’ve never seen a robot do an interview before, check it out! We dissect the whole thing and spoiler alert: he’s still very much on The Wrong Side (26:06-40:10). Last, and honestly maybe least: the always dreadful Women Tell All. We’re not sure what was in the water, but toxicity levels were at an all-time high. We unpack everything from the whole group turning on Katie (??), Anna’s horrible apology to Brittany, and Heather being completely cut from the episode (40:11-48:14). Let’s discuss!

#29 - Rachel Lindsay Deleting Her Instagram, Emmanuel Acho’s Bachelor Hosting Duties, John Mayer Twitter Backlash

After a week-long hiatus that felt like three months, we're back at it again with a handful of updates on the Chris Harrison interview fallout. First things first: Rachel Lindsay deleted her Instagram after receiving an onslaught of harassment from Bachelor Nation. This all happened after Rachael Kirkconnell spoke out in an Instagram video where she even applauded Rachel Lindsay for her efforts, but some people must've fast-forwarded through that part (7:40-13:40). In a tiny slice of good news this week, it was announced that Emmanuel Acho, host of "Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man," will be replacing Chris Harrison to host this season's "After the Final Rose." A good decision by ABC? Groundbreaking (13:42-28:00). Finally, we chat about Twitter absolutely coming for John Mayer after he told Andy Cohen that he almost cried five times while watching "Framing Britney Spears." Warning: this conversation somehow evolves into a deep dive into figuring out where Jessica Simpson is these days (28:00-37:17). Let's discuss!

#28 - Chris Harrison Backlash, Britney Spears Documentary, Taylor Swift’s Re-Recorded ‘Fearless’ Album

If you thought the Kim Kardashian/North West painting debate was going to make an appearance, unfortunately, the tea was piping this week and we’ve got other stories to cover. First up: if you haven’t seen the Rachel Lindsay/Chris Harrison interview, we can sum it up in a few words....Chris Harrison is on The Wrong Side. After he aggressively defended Rachael Kirkconnell’s reputation, everything rightfully went up into flames and apology statements are now being thrown around left and right. We’ve got the whole recap on what might be ~the most dramatic~ Bachelor scandal (04:18-20:02). Next: #FreeBritney. We watched 'The New York Times Presents Framing Britney Spears' and there's just a lot to unpack here. We discuss how sketchy Jamie Spears is, how Britney deserves so much better, and all the ominous hints that something is veeerrrry off in this whole situation (20:03-37:32). Finally, our queen Taylor Swift continues to work overtime and do the most for us. She announced last week that her re-recorded ‘Fearless’ album will be released in April, including six unreleased songs. Alexa, play Love Story (37:33-45:34). Let’s discuss!

#27 - The Bachelor, Morgan Wallen Controversy, Golden Globe Nominations

The tea was mild this week, but that never stops us from somehow still recording an hour-long episode. First up: we cover last week’s episode of The Bachelor. Highlights include: Rachael’s one-on-one shopping date and our mixed feelings on her relationship with Matt, MJ vs. Jessenia (spoiler: we’re team Jessenia), Kit’s one-on-one date, and why we think Katie will be the next Bachelorette (14:18-29:54). Next, we talk about someone who’s always on the Wrong Side: Morgan Wallen. We discuss everything from his SNL cancellation/redemption last year, to the recent video of him using a racial slur. Most importantly, Audrey explains how to block him on Spotify (29:54-35:52). Finally, it’s awards szn and you better believe we’re covering Golden Globe nominations that make zero sense and the top four snubs that deserve justice (35:56-53:05). Let’s discuss!

#26 - New Arrivals on The Bachelor, “The Wilds” on Amazon Prime, 30 Second Headlines

On episode 26 of The Wrong Side, special guest (and former roommate!) Nadia joins to discuss Emily and Audrey’s best and worst roommate behaviors and helps them cover the tea from last week. First up: the new arrivals on The Bachelor (Michelle, we’re rooting for you) and why Nadia is Katie’s #1 fan (28:10-48:56). Now that Audrey has finally finished “The Wilds” on Amazon Prime, we also discuss the show and all of the questions it had the audacity to leave us with (49:15-1:04:48). Finally, we end the epi with some 30 second headlines: the Kardashians’ upcoming and final season, Katherine Heigl’s attempted comeback, and Machine Gun Kelly being everywhere at once (1:05:20-1:07:58). Let’s discuss!

#25 - Sarah vs. Everyone on The Bachelor, Clare and Dale Call It Quits, Sabrina Carpenter Has Entered the Chat

On episode 25 of The Wrong Side, we’re keeping you informed on a lot of drama involving a lot of blondes. First, we cover the absolute bloodbath that was Sarah vs. the rest of Matt’s cast on the most recent episode of The Bachelor (9:58-27:22). Speaking of The Bachelor, Dale Moss is once again a bachelor because, to literally no one’s surprise, Clare and Dale have broken up. We talk about the level-10-cringe sequence of events that went down regarding the announcement of the very much expected news. TL;DR....Dale didn't show up (27:29-41:26). Finally, if you’re still invested in two girls fighting over an average white boy, we’re giving our final thoughts on Sabrina Carpenter's new song, “Skin,” and declaring the winner of this tea once and for all (41:30-57:08). Let’s discuss!

#24 - Recapping Olivia Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett Tea and Catching Up on the Armie Hammer Allegations

This episode is The Wrong Side's first solo episode hosted by Audrey! (Emily is getting some R&R this week - we have to stan). At this point if you don't know what the hell is going on with Olivia Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett, come thru for the recap and let us take you under our wing. To recap, Olivia and Joshua may have endured a heartbreak, but Olivia stays winning, and Joshua will be juuuuust fine. (3:40-14:05) Next, we dive into the Armie Hammer rumors that have been circulating for the past week - we do our best to cover the facts so you know where the story sits now and can keep up if and when more breaks. Saved my opinions 'til the end since nothing has been confirmed. (14:05-36:44) P.S. — Emily will be back next week :)

#23 - Kim & Kanye Divorce Drama, Matt James’ Bachelor Premiere, Netflix’s “Bridgerton”

The first week of 2021 brought enough tea for us to sip on for a lifetime. First, we had the Kim and Kanye divorce bombshell, somehow then combined with rumors that Kanye and Jeffree Star were having an affair??? (10:28-21:35) The Bachelor made a comeback with Matt James’ debut and it wasn’t as bad as we thought it’d be, but we did have some thoughts on the prayer he initiated and Heather M joining the show soon (21:39-40:12). Finally, we cover our favorite show of the year (even if we’re only 11 days in), which is Netflix’s “Bridgerton.” This show gave us everything we needed and we have much to discuss. Also, it should be illegal for anyone to be as attractive as the Duke of Hastings (40:16-1:06:33). P.S. — We promised we’d talk about “The Queen’s Gambit” again but, to nobody’s surprise, we ran out of time. We’ll argue about it next week (1:06:37-1:07:14). Let’s discuss!

#22 - Disney/Pixar's "Soul," Tayshia's Bachelorette Finale, Harry Styles' TPWK Music Video

Welcome to 2021 and welcome to episode 22 of The Wrong Side! In this ~new~ episode of the ~new~ year, we discuss the gem that is Disney/Pixar’s latest animated movie, Soul (16:20-25:10), our thoughts on Tayshia’s Bachelorette finale (25:15-39:28), Harry Styles’ Treat People With Kindness music video (39:30-45:05), and somehow get into yet another argument about streaming platforms and The Queen’s Gambit (47:28-1:01:54). Let’s discuss!
