Three years ago disgraced host of The Bachelor franchise, Chris Harrison, was fired for his racist outburst and subsequent insincere apologies. But in those years he has attempted to rewrite that time and his legacy. And with the impending reality of his new dating show and continued image rehab...Limi and I wanted to work on a timeline deep dive of what happened in 2021 and prior. In hopes that it would not be swept under the rug or misremembered. To hold space for what it was like during these...

In this off season episode I'm joined by Shannon who, like me and Taylor, is also a member of The Tortured Poets Department.

Just like this god forsaken double album drop. lol Thank you @dotherosesalign as always Follow us on insta @datecardpod Twitter @datecardpodca...

I have to say after an entire season of beating us over the heads with tennis related moments, they really failed during Fantasy Suites to bring us any tennis related sex puns. According to a list of tennis terms I just googled, we could have seen talk of Forehand, Stroke, Ground Stroke, Foot Fault, and being a Receiver. I'm disappointed. But what does not disappoint, is this weeks podcast with guest Leah from Positively Uncensored! Together we talk about the overnight dates and what was said in...
