But wait, there's more! Sharleen is an iconic former Bachelor contestant herself, so they interview couples with at least one partner who was on a reality dating show, for double-date style episodes called Love Fests.

Dear Shandy
The Golden Bachelor's Theresa Nist Responds To Gerry Turner's Book Claims - Ep 424
Shandy is thrilled to welcome Theresa Nist for an EXCLUSIVE in-studio conversation. You know Theresa as the winner of the mega-hit season 1 of The Golden Bachelor. She wound up engaged to Gerry Turner, their televised wedding was watched by millions, but they announced their divorce only 3 months later. What *really* happened behind the scenes, after the wedding, and after the cameras turned off? In light of Gerry's new tell-all book describing his version of events, Theresa sits down with Shandy for her most raw, unfiltered interview to date. How did it feel for Theresa to learn that Gerry wondered if he should have chosen his runner-up, Leslie? Did she mislead Gerry about quitting her career, did she misrepresent her finances, and did she read "How To Win The Bachelor" during filming, as he claimed in the book? Did she really make Gerry sleep on the sofa?! Theresa is normally very private but could not stay silent in light of the book's many accusations. Do not miss her brutally honest account.

Dear Shandy

Dear Shandy is your destination for smart takes on Relationships and Reality TV. Sharleen Joynt and Andy Levine, or "Shandy", combine dating advice and reality show recaps for a fun analysis of modern romance.


Sharleen and Andy are two former commitment-phobes who have now been married for over a decade. They don’t believe in fate, soulmates, or The One. So how did they wind up so happily married? They learned the dating lessons by living them. Get no-holds-barred, honest advice from two people who actually have what you want: a fun, blissful partnership.


But wait, there's more! Sharleen is an iconic former Bachelor contestant herself, so they interview couples with at least one partner who was on a reality dating show, for double-date style episodes called Love Fests. Finally, Sharleen brings her insider reality TV alum knowledge and Andy delivers hilarious comic relief to combine for what are hands down the best Reality TV recaps in the business. New episodes drop every Thursday, and during TV seasons, twice a week!
