Bachelor + Pop Culture Podcasts I've Been Loving

I’ve been loving pop culture podcasts — specifically long-form pop culture podcasts that I can listen to on a long walk or drive.

But as Bachelor season approaches, one thing I love to include in my weekly listens is Bachelor podcasts to keep up with the latest Bachelor news. And even some of these Bachelor podcasts post Bachelor updates on all the past contestants.

I have been scouring the Internet for more pop culture podcasts, so I wanted to round up a bunch of pop culture and Bachelor podcasts. I hope you enjoy these podcasts!

Justin Takes The Bach

I love this Instagram page to keep up with all things Bachelor, news/updates on past contestants, and overall, Justin’s hilarious commentary on the show. It’s one of my go-tos for Bachelor updates and he almost always is the first person to report and/or comment on Bachelor news. (Aka the men of Gabby and Rachel’s season.) I also LOVE his #FlexFriday.

Be There In Five Podcast

Kate Kennedy is a pop culture commentator first and foremost, but her commentary on Taylor Swift and all things else pop culture (and even influencers) is elite. I think she has one of the best pop culture podcasts out there. Her episodes are LONG, around two hours for each episode, but they’re worth it. I recommend putting her episodes on when you’re on a long walk, long drive, doing chores, cooking dinner … anytime you need a good deep dive while you’re doing something else.

The Popcast with Knox and Jamie

I like this podcast enough. I like that the two hosts are Christians, but it isn’t necessarily a Christian podcast. They do comment on things of the church, but for the most part, they really talk about pop culture — educating you on things that don’t matter. I would definitely recommend this for a long drive as well or your morning commute. There’s no fluffy intro as in most podcasts, they usually just dive right into the topic (or several topics).

Off The Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe

I love Kaitlyn Bristowe — when she was on Chris Soules’s season, when she was The Bachelorette, and when she was the co-host of the Bachelorette. But I also really love her podcast and the fun social media account she has with it. She has a lot of cool guests on it and some aren’t even within Bachelor Nation — episodes including her DWTS partner, Artem, and his fiancee (wife?) Nikki Bella, and more. Honestly, one of those Bachelor podcasts hosted by a former contestant to listen to.

Bachelor Happy Hour

This is an OFFICIAL Bachelor podcast produced by The Bachelor themselves, but as of right now, this is hosted by former Bachelorettes Michelle Young and Becca Kufrin. (Formerly hosted by Rachel Lindsay and Becca Kufrin.) I don’t listen to it all year round, but I’ve heard it’s really good and the hosts are fabulous.

She’s All Bach

I really only “listen” to this podcast through various TikTok clips, but they seem to always have the TEA. If you are looking for spoilers and tea on Bachelor news ahead of everyone else, go to She’s All Bach. They do deep dives into Bachelor theories and who’s dating who.

Pop Culture Happy Hour

I had to add this one! NPR has a great pop culture podcast that gives you all the pop culture headlines in the morning. Highly recommend this one! It’s shorter, but it will give you an overview of what’s happening in pop culture.

And that’s it! A short list of Bachelor and pop culture podcasts that I listen to. Honestly, I am trying to find more so PLEASE … if you have any suggestions that weren’t on this list, comment them below!
