It’s finally here. What you’ve all been asking for since I released the ending to Colton’s season, and that’s your episode-by-episode spoilers. When I recorded this last night, I had my notes in front of me and did some things that I remember being told off the top of my head, but I also wanted to cover some topics in Bachelor Nation first that I’ve gotten asked about the most in the last couple months. The podcast begins with that since I’m aware I haven’t written much at all this offseason. That’ll change once Jan. 7th rolls around and I basically have almost 9 straight months of writing three times a week and six podcasts a month. But you’ve had emails and questions regarding things in Bachelor Nation I wanted to address, so we start with that. Also when I last left you with spoilers, I said there were some details about the ending to Colton’s season that I didn’t have. This podcast addresses those and I update you on more that went down during overnight dates in Portugal including the fence jump from what I’m being told. Podcast is a little less than an hour and has no advertisement breaks. There are a few things in the spoilers that I spend some extra amount of time on, and I don’t expect any of you to sit there with a pen and paper writing this all down, but you will have it in written form soon. Good chance it’ll be tomorrow. You’ll see that the details on the dates overseas in Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, while being correct in who went on the dates, don’t have too much info on what exactly they did. A couple do, but all your dates and eliminations are correct. Just not as detailed. So sit back and enjoy your spoilers to Colton’s season.

Regarding crazy days and nights, the majority of reveals are true, but there’s probably a decent number of blinds that are made up. The disclaimer is for legal protection. I don’t think there’s ever been a reveal that said Colton was gay, just blind items that sounded like they were talking about him.

Regarding Elan Gale’s book “You’re not that Great”…
I never had any intention of reading it, until he left The Bachelor and I found it at the local library.
Essentially he explains why negative emotions, such as anger and fear, are more useful than positive passive bliss. He recommends having more of an internal locus of control over an external LOC, as rarely people are that lucky – rather, they often work hard for what they have… nothing that first year psychology hasn’t covered.
At one point I thought to myself, ‘does he know that many people who need to hear this, to the point that he actually thought this book would be profitable?’ And then I realized he resides in California… As opposed to New York. I don’t mean to generalize, I know that’s silly, I just don’t get how one would think the content of this book is anything unique. I would recommend reading “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” rather than his book.
Regarding Kaitlyn, I just don’t see it with Jason T at all. I actually can’t imagine her with anyone other than Shawn. I feel for her; they seemed like a great pair. The next guy will need to be older than her, IMO.

I would never pick up Elan Gale’s book – he simply has no appeal to me so I can’t imagine any earth shattering advice I’d get from someone who presents themselves so poorly and in need of attention.
I am looking forward to Colton’s season just as I am every other season, it’s about the entertainment of the contestants. I think Colton is boring, predictable and thirsty. Your intentions are either to truly find love or to truly find fame, he is definitely the latter.
I think Kaitlyn and Jason are a perfect couple. They are both desperately seeking notoriety. I don’t know how anyone refers to themselves as a “brand.” You could just shoot me if I ever said those words. Kaitlyn and Shawn were a mismatch from the beginning starting with their lifestyles. Also, if you have money to throw away on her scrunchies, please send it my way. Nothing says blind follower like buying an out of date hair tie that is available on Amazon or Urban Outfitters for half the price. People actually race to their computers to buy these things and then they sell out. Truly mind boggling.

Agree, the book was a complete waste of time.
I forgot about K’s scrunchie business… I don’t get it. They are tacky, unoriginal. Who buys this cr*p?!

Actually Adelina, I’m curious why you think Jason’s lifestyle is a better match for Kaitlyn, compared to Shawn’s?

Steve is so sensitive these days. What does he care if people believe his gossip or not, unless he’s afraid of a lawsuit, but lawsuits didn’t seem to deter him before. So, you post some background stuff on these contestants and some people don’t believe you because you’re not going to prove it by revealing your sources. So what? Are you that thin-skinned that you can’t handle it when idiot fan-girls tell you you’re wrong? You’re in the wrong biz for sensitivity. Steve has become so pussified since his connection with Ashley S., it seems.

Hey @nursej – I didn’t say anything about lifestyle, simply that they seem to be a better match than Shawn and Kaitlyn.
Shawn’s lifestyle seems to be about health and fitness and generally low key. Kaitlyn is much more outgoing and spends a lot of time focused on all things wine. Not judging – just saying. Jason seems to crave and enjoy the spotlight similarly to Kaitlyn.

@Adelina – You said “Kaitlyn and Jason are a perfect couple. They are both desperately seeking notoriety… Kaitlyn and Shawn were a mismatch from the beginning starting with their lifestyles” – Thus, given that Shawn and Kaitlyn’s lifestyles are mismatched according to you, and Kaitlyn and Jason are a “perfect couple,” my question was what makes Jason better suited for her? You describe “Jason seems to crave and enjoy the spotlight similarly to Kaitlyn” which sounds to me like a lifestyle.

So, Steve has all this dirt on contestants (more than previous seasons) but he can’t share like he use to because of social media and trolls
etc.
Thanks for the tease Steve!And I blame those trolls!

Regarding the interviews of Chris Harrison hyping up a conversation Colton has with someone-Steve can’t comment yet about what is revealed during this conversation and what it revolves around and how it will change some people’s opinion about Colton, etc. Well, this is my guess but I think it’s going to be about Colton being a victim of molestation when he was younger.

Personally I kind of believe the Crazy Days and Nights post that implies Steve got paid a tonne to keep Colton’s secret and not spoil it. First time I remember Steve being vague with spoilers…

Regarding the Days & Nights website, my theory is they post the obligatory “the site publishes rumors, conjecture, and fiction. In addition to accurately reported information, certain situations, characters and events portrayed in the Blog are either products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously. Information on this site may contain errors or inaccuracies; the Blog’s proprietor does not make warranty as to the correctness or reliability of the site’s content…” because they don’t want to reveal their sources and/or be sued. They are off the hook if they say it is all made up nonsense or rumors. However, since some of it is true… they get you hooked to the site, by unofficially validating the truth. Additionally, to remain legit to their disclaimer, they have to throw in the random incorrect news post. They can’t possibly only post the truth or they would be sued. This way they respond, “Hey, like I stated, it’s all just made up crap. Not my fault it turns out to be true sometimes. Look! That post is wrong…”
Perhaps Elan was upset that RS earned more for this payoff than Elan does in a year, without lifting a finger, literally.
If Colton is primarily interested in men (and the show knew prior to casting/advertising, etc.), the show/network would be in serious trouble, after casting and promoting as they have.

Is your music from the podcast the same as the club scene from Pretty in Pink? Sounds the same

What “if” Colton is gay or even “if” he was molested in his past? Does it really matter if it gets exposed if at some point he has relayed that info to someone? Secrets almost always come to light and since Colton actively seeks the fame he desires, he must know this goes with the territory. As far as Steve and what he knows, who the hell cares. Dramarama. I.just.don’t.care.
