I’m honestly a little embarrassed to say that I’ve never reviewed this podcast, as it’s absolutely my favorite and now that I’m in between seasons, I find myself actively missing it. I’ve been watching The Bachelor franchise since season one when I was in high school, and granted I missed a few seasons, but what brought me back consistently was bible scripture tattoos and boobs in the moonlight along with hilarious guests, a stellar “production team,” and perhaps my only “real” para social friend, Arden. The commentary and breakdown of each episode is obviously pee-in-your-pants funny, but part of what makes this show so special to me is the genuine hope for love, that, despite the Bachelor trying its best to make impossible, Arden and friends seems to keep believing in. It’s helped me through many a lonely place and I really think there’s a sweet spot for a show about The Bachelor and grief that Will You Accept This Rose manages to fill perfectly. Thank you all for doing the lord’s work, can’t wait to see you on the beach for Paradise!

HIlairous podcast, BEST guests, relatable, and always a feel-great vibe. When I’m having a bad day or week, I re-listen to back episodes and it literally lifts my mood. Thank you, Arden - you are my Zoloft! I’ve been listening since the first year of this podcast, and never miss an episode. Wish Arden could recap EVERYTHING I watch. Side note; Katie, it’s obvious you’re spoiled every season. Girl, same! I am too; but don’t pretend I don’t know - it’s disingenuous. There’s no way you ALWAYS guess 2 of the top 3 finalists in EVERY pre-season podcast, come on…you know.

The recent episode with Jacquis, Shawn, and Lamar was the best! I hope they all come back often!!

Hilarious guests, charming production team, and a delightful host who predicts the future with astonishing accuracy.

Arden and the production team manage to make an often predictable show feel fresh and fun every single week. Arden is amazing at making the listeners and guests feel like family. Like why was I singing Happy Birthday to Whitney while along in my kitchen last week??? I had to remind myself not only was no one around, but I don’t even know these people though sometimes it feels like I do. I’ve loved listening to Arden becoming a champion over the years, and after seeing her this week on Righteous Gemstones, I thought “girl!!! you are a complete champion now!" And when Stifler insulted her dress, I was like “that dress SLAYS!” and was fully ready to throw hands for my bestie. I’m so grateful for this podcast. Arden’s authenticity is so inspiring, and as a fellow messy eater, I relate with her so much. I love how much Katie advocates for rescue animals, and I’ve been introduced to so amazing talent through Arden’s network of guests. I could go on and on… but I’ll sum up by saying this podcast is a highlight of my week, and I hope it never ends! P.S… Arden if you’re reading this! I would like to formally invite you to my sister’s wedding in August. She’s inviting my dad, who I haven’t talked to in years. It would be sooo fun and comforting to have you and Dr. Rosenieh there for moral support, and we can all trauma bond over our bad dads that made us funny 😉 Y’all are the best and I hope you never change🫶

Isn’t this one. But if you’re looking for something that will make you laugh out loud and forget all your troubles and the chaos in the world, this is it. Arden, her entire production team, and all the hilarious comedians, writers, and friends who join them are like hanging out with your funniest friends. They’re also kind sweet people who don’t leave me feeling like I contributed to the negativity in the world. Whether you’re a Bachelor fan or would never be caught dead watching the show, I highly recommend

I can’t believe it took us this long to get to Anna Rosenieh.

I started watching the Bachelor because I was trying to find a show I thought my mom might enjoy when she had to take care of me for three weeks after I had emergency surgery (the first thing I made her watch was Megan). Will You Accept This Rose is the reason I keep watching! I love Arden’s energy and the way she engages all her guests, and Dr. Banana and Katie Levine are both first class. -Josh, Librarian, 43

Warning: Do NOT try to do your makeup while listening to the podcast—the most recent episode with Gareth Reynolds and Jerry Trainor was so funny, I messed up my eyebrows. But jagged eyebrows that make my coworkers think I’m angry all the time are a small price to pay for all the joy and laughter this podcast brings me. Arden, Katie, and Anna are some of my best friends, even if they don’t know it, and it has been so helpful to visit Grief Island with my best friends from this pod after my mom died a few years ago. Love this podcast!

Legit tears running down my face, funniest bachelor podcast, but also such great takes. Love the producers’ takes too! My absolute FAVORITE podcast, I look forward to it every week!!! Absolutely the BEST if you are a Bach fan!! Even if not, you will love the chemistry, banter and comedy between Arden, the guests and producers. I can’t get enough!! Wish there were two episodes a week!!

I am crying for you. Two years ago I lost my blind cat Lemon in exactly the same way as Meow. We buried her beneath a lemon tree. She almost immediately brought a load of lemon blossoms to us. There are currently two ripening on its branches. I will think of you and this goofy podcast when I enjoy them later this month. Hugging my kitties and puppies extra tight in memory of sweet Meow and Scout.

Arden & Team - I didn’t know you could get any better but hearing you say call your senators about park rangers losing their positions just made me appreciate your wonderful podcast even more. Thanks for being my comedic relief during this stressful time, help me feel not so silly for loving The Bachelor, supporting animals and being awesome humans. I actually bonded with another park ranger who listens to your show. With love, Ranger Mags

As a long time listener, I have been charmed, delighted, and made to laugh out loud by scampish Arden and her lovable crew. I have also admired Arden’s resilient spirit and grace during difficult times. One never can truly tell how they will behave when they find themselves docked at Grief Island; I was surprised to find myself there recently. In mid-December my dad received an advanced stage cancer diagnosis and only a few weeks later my family and I lost our home, our belongings, and our town in the Pac. Pal. Fire. In the weeks that have followed, I have found it difficult, for various reasons, to listen to music, to read books, and to watch. But, I am still able to listen to your podcast and I am doing so with the greatest joy! Arden, production crew, and guests…you are wonderful gems! Keep on being champions and inspiring those of us, who could use a boost in that department, just by being you!

Longtime listener, first-time reviewer! Arden and her merry band are my number one comfort podcast. I started listening back when her guests were often Bachelor of ALL the Years Rob Benedict, a perfectly symmetrically-faced Paget Brewster, platonic life partner Erin Foley and the Pistol herself, one Mizz Debby Ryan. I’m so fortunate that I got to hear live the wisdom and wisecracks of her mom JJ and the gift that she gave the listeners of sharing her experience on Grief Island when JJ passed was certainly far beyond what the average pod can do. Arden, you are a bright, beaming light in this deteriorating world and we truly NEED this podcast, with your rotating groups of phenomenal new friends, more than ever. It’s pure comfort and pure joy. As always, shout out to the production team, and please foster, adopt, and if you can’t do either, please donate what you can to your nearest animal shelters

Dear Arden & the team. Last year I won 2 sleepcrowns while I was going thru breast cancer surgery and they helped me so much during recovery. I listen to your podcast with my 12 year old. The other day she asked me if I ever wrote you back to tell you that I’m still alive. Then she laughed hysterically at the thought that random strangers might believe that I didn’t survive. Clearly, we are all well adjusted here and I’m raising a totally normal child. We both love listening to the podcast and she pretends to not understand the inappropriate words. We look forward to the pod each week even when we don’t watch the show. It’s our fun way to bond. Love everything you gals and guys do. Keep up the amazing work! Love - AnnaBanana and her really inappropriate 12 year old (PS - the kid totally stole my sleep crown)

Hello Arden and “production team”! I found the pod through Paget Brewster during Pilot Pete’s season, decided to give it a try, and haven’t looked back! Now, I don’t listen because I watch the bachelor, I watch the bachelor because I listen to the pod! I’m so excited each week to see what Arden and her fabulous guests have to say. They always keep me laughing but also give invaluable advice such as becoming a Champion! Arden has introduced me to so many cool people like Doug, Jerry, Rob, Jacquis, Brendan, and Our Friend Whitney (Whitney hive RISE UP!) Thank you, Arden and friends, for being such bright lights and wonderful companions on my work commute!

I’ve been listening to the pod for years and am always cracking up like I’m on a call with my besties. Let’s be real, the Bachelor Franchise is ultra white, and as a 43 year old black woman I have found your pod to be home! I got to meet Arden, Charity and Dotun at the Brooklyn Live show and after listening for years Arden felt like a kindred to me! My husband and I just saw a trailer for Righteous Gemstones and I excitedly shouted “my friend is in that show!” I cracked myself up realizing we actually aren’t friends, I just spend a few hours a week with you! Anyway- if you are looking for a hilarious and spot on take to the Bachelor - this is your podcast!

Hello WYATR gang! You’re my first ever review, but you simply cannot know how much my Mom and I love your podcast. I live at sea and she is in Wis-can-sin. We are many miles apart and we rarely watch the batch, but look forward to laughing with you all every episode. Arden and cast help me drown out the voices of annoying passengers. Also, I got my fiance a Sleepcrown for Christmas and it’s a love match. Thank you all for the pod and all the laughs.

I was an OG fan (literally watched Trista on the tv in my sorority), but lost interest over the years. Until, the Golden and that led me to this beautiful podcast. I only watch the show to listen to all of you!!

My favorite podcast! Every week I look forward to hearing Arden, Katie and Dr. Banana discuss this stupid show with a roster of other hilarious actors and comedians. They treat the Bachelor universe with a healthy balance of humor and humanity, but the pod’s true strength is Arden’s talent for bringing in the funniest and most insightful guests. Listing out my favorite regulars would take an eternity, so I’ll just say that I’ve found some sympathy for Ben Higgins because I am in simultaneously in love with Jerry Trainor, Jacquis Neal, Jim Jeffries, Shaun Diston, Rob Benedict and Rob Benedict’s mom. Oh and also Gareth Reynolds. And Kyle Dunnigan. Please don’t blacklist Kyle just because he doesn’t actually watch the episode he’s there to talk about. Anyway, love the pod, thanks for making it so that there’s an upside to my crippling Bachelor addiction.

We love Arden and dr banana!

I am a big fan of Will You Accept This Rose! All of the guests and Arden are hilarious! Thank you for entertaining me every week!

A weekly escape to the bougie garage is essential listening for anyone who loves comedy and the bachelor franchise. Arden, her incredible rotating group of guests and hilarious production team bring me so much joy. This podcast makes every second watching the bachelor worth it (but not necessary to enjoy the pod). It truly feels like the best dinner party with friends. Cannot recommend this pod enough! Love yall! Ben Reviewer 39

11/10 the best podcast on earth and probably in space. This podcast is the only reason I still watch the bachelor. Long time listener, first time reviewer. Idk why it has taken me so long to review because I am truly obsessed. I’m a huge fan of Arden and all of her guests + THE PRODUCTION TEAM. I keep up religiously with the bachelor franchise so I can listen and compare my takes with all of my friends on Will You Accept the Rose. When the episode drops I will listen anywhere: at work, in my car, on my horse (he is also a huge fan) and I laugh so hard I’ve almost fallen off. Please come to the Philly/NJ area for a live show Leo the horse and I will be there. Ps all of the horse dates throughout the franchise history have been truly unhinged I am always obsessed with how weird hot people act around horses. Anything thanks for being the best!!!

You all are the absolute best of the best!! Agree to agree that no matter hag day of the week or how long eps are you all make my week!! As a fellow divorceee this podcast has brought me through the highs and lows of life. You all are keeping the main thing the main thing and he did say it!!!! Too vaguely and too open for interpretation!! How are queens Rosie and Daisy doing?? Any more bengal sightings in your bougie garage cat sanctuary?!

This is my favorite Bachelor podcast! Always makes me laugh! Love it! Sad that we wont have a bachelorette season cause that means less episodes of this podcast ☹️ but I will still keep enjoying every pod episode and always excited of who are the next guests. Thank you all for doing amazing work and being Champions!!! Love from Puerto Rico!

Arden and crew are true champions. Listening to this podcast is the only reason I watch, and the whole time I’m watching I’m thinking about how they will react. The commentary is not only funny but also poignant. Their live shows are wild in the best way too!

I’ve been listening to WYATR religiously since the beginning of 2018 and even joined the Patreon fam last year! Arden and all the guests are so funny and have carried me through so much, including an emotional breakdown and the pandemic. I’ve become a real Bachelor expert purely from listening to this podcast! Love you bunnies!

This podcast is fantastic. I have to turn it off in public places sometimes because it makes me literally laugh out loud. It’s also kind spirted, in a myriad of ways. A lot of heart and humor - the best combo

Never ceases to make me smile. I love all the guests: Jerry, Jim, Jacquis, Garrett, Rob, Whitney…so many favorites. I still miss Debby. Love Maggie Smith as the newest Wookiee!! Thanks for the laughs🩷

Arden, the production team, and guests are so funny. Truly one of the only reasons I still watch the bachelor shows; I love their commentary. The only bachelor related podcast I listen to!

The best

Also, is Jacquis single? 👀👀👀

I long enjoyed watching the Bachelor in the background while doing chores. But I recently found this podcast and now I pay attention and watch the Bachelor so I can chuckle along with Arden and friends and feel like I’m in on the jokes. Such a fun podcast!

Laughs, friendships, champions and the best take on the Bachelor franchise…this podcast has it all! You asked for reviews to let iHeart know this podcast is a keeper, so here it is. Thanks to Arden, the production crew and all of the hilarious guests! You and this podcast are the best!!!

This show is a ray of sunshine, the only reason I watch the Bachelor, and the most hilarious podcast there is. Arden and friends are so warm and lovely while also bringing razor sharp insights and absurdity that leave me laughing out loud in public. The best!

This podcast is the only reason I watch The Bachelor shows. I listen to it even when I can’t commit to a season. Arden is amazing and the guests are so funny, also, the production team brings so much value, to include “The Boner Patrol” and medical advice from Dr. Banana. This is the funniest podcast with so much personality, keep doing the Lord’s work!

This show is the best. Arden, Katie, and Madam Dr. Professor Tana Banana DDS. are always a treat to listen to. I wasn’t ever into the Bachelor shows, but started watching to fully enjoy this podcast. Every guest are wonderful additions to the podcast and this has easily become my favorite podcast that I look forward to every week.

five stars. she keeps cracking up next to me in the car and i never know why, occasionally ill listen in and i can admit its hilarious,, 🙏🔥

I don’t watch the Bach, but I love listening to this pod! Makes me laugh every single time!

i’ve reviewed before, but had to update to talk about how much i LOVED the live show! charity and dotun were unsurprisingly incredible and i loved the charles discussion. i don’t know the context behind it, but jerry yelling “it’s not a fluke arden!” at the very end of the recording made me burst into tears. putting your authentic self out there for the world is terrifying and getting to see the payoff in person must be insane. you all deserve to be so proud of yourselves :’-)

Hi Arden and the production team! I’m behind on Joan’s season because Hurricane Helena decimated Asheville, NC where I live. After losing all utilities (we still don’t have running water), fleeing the area, and volunteering with the clean up effort, I finally got a chance to start watching Joan’s season and listening to your podcast this week. Both the show and the podcast have been a bright spot and a bit of normalcy in what has been a very traumatic and difficult time. I cracked up at the start of the episode 2 recap when you talked about being in Columbia, SC with so many references to the University of South Caroline Gamecocks. My son went there for graduate school last year. I’d never been to Columbia or USC, and like you, I was slightly shocked about how much they lean into the whole gameCOCK thing. My son loved going to school there. We loved visiting him there, and I’m glad you were charmed by Columbia. When Asheville returns to its funky glory, I hope you, your amazing guests (I love them all!!), and the production team will consider doing a live show here … or maybe you’ll do a stand up show?! I will be your local champion to make sure the house is packed with a great audience. Chelsea Handler did a show here a couple of years ago. And yes, the venue was completely full, and my daughter and I had front row seats and back stage passes to take our picture with Chelsea.😍 Thanks for doing the lord’s work and making me smile during a difficult time. — Ann

Jim Jeffries is THE WORST. Otherwise the regulars are fantastic!

As a long time listener I can’t even recall how many years it’s been since I discovered WYATR and Arden Myrin. I only know that I was hooked with one episode and all other Bach podcasts were cast aside. It quickly became my favorite way to pass time in the car; providing me with hundreds of LOL moments guaranteed to solicit strange looks from other drivers. Arden and her production crew are warm and hilarious and make me feel like I’m listening to my friends each week. Arden is kind and generous with her guests, letting them riff on and off topic. Many of the guests are household name comics, long time friends of Arden who is a very gifted comic herself. I love that the show is not edited to a tight hour, the longer the better! Arden’s guests rotate and return frequently, recording this podcast seems to be a blast for everyone who steps foot in Arden’s bougie garage. Do yourself a favor and add WYATR to your weekly podcast rotation, your life will be better for it!

Love this podcast and listening to Arden, with her friends, recap whatever craziness went down that week in this franchise! Also love, Arden’s personal adventures and travels as well as becoming a southern lady! She always has fantastic guests, but I’m just gonna say it, Seth is my favorite! He’s just too funny.

The best bachelor/bachelorette podcast there is, never fails to brighten my day and make me laugh! Please ask Arden not to say “RIP” when talking about a contestant that went home, you almost gave me a heart attack during the latest episode! 😂 It’s too risky with the Golden cast!!

I seriously love this podcast so much! Arden and pals are the only reason I still watch this dumpster fire of a franchise. Five stars, no notes, keep doing the lord’s work and thank you for making me laugh every week!

Didn’t know I had already written a review… though my previous feedback does still hold water… would love for Ronna to make the trip from Marblehead w. Bryan again! Can’t wait to see how this season of golden batch works out!

This podcast is the BEST! I love watching an episode then listening to the podcast to hear if Arden and pals notice what I do. As I watch the episode I find myself saying “Oh I can’t wait to hear Arden’s thoughts on that!” Yall are so insightful and funny! Keep doing the Lord’s work. 5 Stars!

So I have never watched an episode of the Bachelor/Bachelorette but when I heard that Rob Benedict and his mom, Viv, were gonna be on, I decided to have a listen!! I was hooked after the first episode!!! I love how Arden & Co. breakdown each episode and all the shenanigans that the bachelors/bachelorettes get up to!!! I’m gonna start watching the Golden Bachelorette with my mom (who watched Golden Bachelor) and can’t wait to hear what everyone has to say!!! This podcast is amazing and helps my busy and monotonous days behind a desk as a legal assistant so much better when I listen during work!!! Many a time, my coworkers have come to check on me when I am laugh-crying at my desk (usually when Gareth Reynolds is on)!! Keep up the amazing work!! And as always, keep on becoming champions!!!
