Bachelor Nation Newbies

Leane, Claire and Phoebe

A Los Angeles mom and her two teenage/young adult daughters (21 and 19) are the Bachelor Nation Newbies.  The Newbies discovered The Bachelor during the pandemic in Spring of 2020 when watching the 2009 Jason Mesnick Season on Netflix.  

Each week we're sharing both our newbie Bachelor Nation perspective and glimpses into our family dynamics during an unedited conversation about life, love and everything in between as we use The Bachelor/The Bachelorette as a conduit for a fresh, mom/daughters conversation.  Perfect for a Bachelor fix on your daily dog walk or while folding laundry.  Whether you're new like us, a veteran BN fanatic or just interested in topics like love, dating, mom/daughter relationships, moving away to college, feminism, reality television, life with a Husky, an old Chihuahua, and much more - join us as our bachelor journey continues to unfold.
