BachelorClues and PaceCase break down one of the most shocking pre-season Golden Bachelor clips to date. Mel Owens, recently announced as the lead for Season 2, appeared on a Michigan sports podcast and made a string of ageist and ableist remarks about the women he hopes to date — setting the tone for what could be a chaotic season. The hosts dissect the implications of his comments, question how the appearance was even allowed, and explore how this could impact casting, night one dynamics, and the franchise’s already shaky reputation. Plus, they review new interviews from Wells Adams and Jesse Palmer hyping the upcoming Bachelor in Paradise season and weigh in on whether production changes will be enough to compete with juggernauts like Love Island.
