One of many issues I used to be taking a look at from yesterday’s fallout was as soon as the brand new spoilers was dropped, how did it have an effect on Daisy and Kelsey’s IG followings. So yesterday morning when the brand new spoiler went up on my web site, podcast, and IG feed at 7:30am, Daisy had 415,000 followers. As of this morning, she’s at 430,972 slightly over 24 hrs later. Kelsey yesterday morning at the moment had 55.4k followers and as of this morning, she’s at 77,237. So Daisy’s gained 15k followers and Kelsey has gained 22k because the announcement. Strong positive factors for every, however for many who suppose Daisy has so many extra followers than Kelsey as a result of I gave the spoiler, I simply don’t see it that manner. Sure, it’s solely been 24 hours and Daisy had a 3 month head begin with individuals pondering she received, however, Daisy solely had 20k followers on Jan twenty second, premiere evening. And her greatest bounce in followers got here after episode 2 which, you guessed it, was her first 1-on-1 date. I’m positive the spoiler on the market early on had some impact, but it surely’s not practically the impact you suppose it had. All of it has to do along with your likability issue (does the viewers such as you/your story) and display screen time. Daisy and Kelsey earlier than this previous week have been I imagine fifth and sixth in display screen time, and Kelsey doesn’t publish a lot content material. Effectively, she’s beginning to do extra now, however for many of the season, she saved it tame.
I’ve an replace in your Ladies Inform All taping. It’s taking place subsequent Wednesday, March sixth and seemingly will air on March 18th. Prepare as a result of we solely had one dramatic storyline all season, and that was no matter was occurring with Maria. They actually aren’t gonna let that die, so, count on fireworks at this seasons WTA. Hopefully I’ll get behind the scenes data on what actually occurred on the taping versus what’s gonna be proven to us on the 18th since they’ve the power to edit something out they need. Needs to be attention-grabbing.
Suzana Somers, final week’s visitor, has your Display screen Time numbers for this previous episode.
Lets get to your “Reader Emails”…

I’m a labor nurse so I made a decision to observe Nick vialls YouTube model of their delivery story. And holy fuck you weren’t kidding this man can actually not assist himself however to speak about himself. All the things is about him. I’ve by no means seen a dad be the primary story teller of a delivery earlier than. Saying like “we requested for an epidural” the fuck you didn’t sir, SHE did and I don’t know what world you reside in the place you thought any a part of her ache administration was your determination too..??!!!!? This was not giving supportive vibes this was giving management vibes. He’s nuts. Couldn’t even end it.
He was like giving the physician shit for not getting there quick sufficient? I simply can’t. Telling individuals getting an epidural isn’t dangerous it should’ve simply been dangerous within the previous days however in the present day it’s really easy and painless. Sir, nobody gave you an epidural how have you learnt what it seems like?
Sorry needed to vent to somebody and 0 individuals in my life know who Nick vial is lol
Remark: I imply…ought to anybody be in the least shocked?

Hey Steve! I’ve been a loyal listener for years however I can’t keep in mind in the event you’ve ever answered this query.
Do you pay your sources like different information shops, or do they simply ship you data at no cost? I used to be speaking with a buddy a couple of random bachelor spoiler that had come out years in the past from a video somebody despatched in and he or she mentioned that individual should’ve made some huge cash. I’m undecided why it didn’t even happen to me that you could be pay individuals for his or her data! I don’t pay for information. Folks similar to telling me stuff.
Additionally, I’ve a suggestion. Is it attainable to place timestamps within the podcast if you point out spoilers for bachelor, as an alternative of simply writing “spoilers” to start with of the episode description? I do know you’re the spoiler man, however I wish to be spoiler free. I get pleasure from listening to the podcast on your interviews and takes on completely different subjects and I need to have the ability to do this with out being spoiled!
In any other case, I really like the podcast!
Remark: Timestamps would by no means be appropriate as a result of I by no means know what number of adverts are gonna run and that throws all the things off. And that bothers me so I don’t use them. And it’s a lot simpler to have “SPOILERS” on each episode description as a result of it’s additionally inconceivable to know what somebody considers a spoiler. Won’t simply be the ending. So I don’t wish to have to differentiate each episode, “Hmmmm, was {that a} spoiler?” So simply assume each podcast can have a spoiler in it. It’s a lot simpler that manner.

Hello Steve,
To me you didn’t get it incorrect since you corrected the spoiler BEFORE the ending. In case your niece knew then you definitely would have recognized it wasn’t Daisy all alongside so I imagine you. Oh and that remark the place you mentioned Daisy didn’t go all CLAIRE CRAWLEY on Joey had me laughing out loud! I keep in mind that on Juan Pablo season. Might that man be any extra narcissistic lol
Remark: I imply, it was nonetheless incorrect for 3 months. Sure, it’s been corrected and it means there’s nonetheless solely been one season the place you didn’t know the spoiler going into finale evening.

Steve,
Haven’t listened to the pod but, however simply learn your column. Good job of placing the details on the market and addressing your inaccurate earlier spoiler. Love the truth that you didn’t cross any blame to sources and easily acknowledged you reported what you thought was correct however you have been incorrect.
It’s refreshing to have somebody settle for accountability even for one thing so simple as actuality TV endings.
Remark: Thanks. I actually don’t see a motive to. I’m by no means gonna out sources anyway, so it appears slightly counterproductive responsible different individuals. It’s not them posting the data, it’s me. It’s me. Hello. I’m the issue, it’s me.
I’ve at all times admitted once I was incorrect. Shit, I’ve admitted extra incorrect doing than in all probability any Bachelor recapper on the web. Then once more, I’m additionally the one one who really sticks his neck out and posts spoilers season in and season out, so, there’s that. Very straightforward to only throw opinions and takes out when there’s zero repercussions on whether or not you’re proper or incorrect.
___________________________
I hope you don’t get a whole lot of crap in the present day. I’m simply comfortable you inform us the spoilers yearly. You might be proper more often than not and that’s all I care about. We normally at all times know the spoiler earlier than the episode airs so individuals must recover from it. You’re not excellent, nobody is. Preserve bringing the spoilers! Thanks for admitting if you end up incorrect. You’re a superb position mannequin.
Remark: I don’t wish to make this Reader Emails in the present day about all of the help I acquired yesterday. However it’s good to see so I wished to share a few of them. I believe it’s extra about apologizing. I’m not apologizing for forgiveness for getting it incorrect. The apology is moreso about how I dealt with a number of the messages I personally acquired from individuals. Ought to’ve simply ignored them.

Hello Steve,
Thanks for all the things you do, week after week for our amusement of this foolish present. I can’t think about the work you do to get us the spoilers 12 months after 12 months. I actually imagine in the event you hadn’t been spoiling the present all these years, there’s no manner I’d’ve continued watching all this time. Thanks. And I’ll maintain attempting to supply them each season. New season begins filming in 3 weeks and all of it begins over once more. One season has nothing to do with the following.
My query is concerning your new enterprise to having YouTube movies. I wish to help you as totally as attainable, so I’m curious to know which manner of consuming your materials might be the next income earner for you. Would watching the YouTube day by day/weekly podcast be a much bigger earner for you than listening to it on Apple Podcasts? If attainable, I’ll attempt to eat your present through each methods, however on the times I can’t, I’ll positively help your present in the very best monetarily manner attainable.
Thanks for what you do. Really.
Remark: Effectively I’m undecided, since I believe as soon as the YouTube movies begin, it’s simply gonna be 1 every week, which might be my Thursday weekly interview podcast. So at first I’d say at the very least watch slightly of the YouTube video each Thursday, then change over and end it on the pod? I don’t know. I gotta see the way it works.

Lengthy-time reader although stopped watching the present some time in the past. However, simply sending help contemplating your total batting common. You might be not often incorrect – which did make me consider the Des/Brooks factor manner again within the day. As I recall a number of the bachelor producers threw shade at you then. Assume they’ll do it once more?
Remark: No, solely as a result of manufacturing has nothing to do with my spoilers. That season? It was wonky. I do know that one my major sources that season ghosted me as soon as the season was over, so yeah, they clearly misled me on function. This season? No. I’ve spoken to the sources since then and as I mentioned yesterday, they believed what they have been being advised to be true. That’s why I don’t fault them. It’s not like they have been blatantly mendacity to me.

Hello Steve,
Simply an statement: there appears to be extra girls this season who’ve a extra “pure” look—fewer girls with hair extensions, much less make-up (Maria and Rachel particularly), and slightly extra selection for physique sorts. Perhaps that is one thing to do with Joey’s desire, however regardless, I’d hope this pattern continues as a result of it’s good to see girls on television that aren’t made up like magnificence queens 24/7.
Anyway, thanks for all you do!
Remark: I truthfully haven’t seemed that closely at that, however in the event you say so, I’ll take your phrase for it. However positively a whole lot of enticing girls this season for positive. One in every of our greatest wanting casts ever I believe.
