Then, we start our interviews off with Malik, who gets candid about the current pause on the show. He also shares about his life and his journey to the show; who knew your “Bachelorette” love story could start at Sexy Fish in Miami?!

Next, we hear from Doug, one of the most talked-about men online right now. From his music career to being followed by paparazzi, nothing is off-limits. Tune in now, and be sure to subscribe to keep getting to know the men of The Bachelorette.

Ever wonder what happens when the cameras stop rolling and the final rose is handed out? Bachelor Happy Hour pulls back the curtain on the world you see on screen, offering a genuine, often surprising, look at the reality behind reality TV. Hosted by former Bachelorettes Charity Lawson and Rachel Recchia, this isn't just recap chatter. It's a direct line to the people who lived it. Each episode, Charity and Rachel connect with current cast members, alumni, and others from the franchise for conversations that go beyond the edited storylines. They get into the real emotions, the unspoken rules of the mansion, and the details that never make it to air. Produced by iHeartPodcasts and Warner Bros, this podcast sits at the unique intersection of TV, culture, and modern relationships, exploring how the show reflects and influences our social landscape. Tune in for the laughter, the candid confessions, and the kind of insider perspective that only comes from having been in the spotlight yourself. It’s like having a post-show debrief with friends who truly get it.
