Special Edition: Conversation w/ Amy Kaufman, Author of ‘Bachelor Nation: Inside the World of America's Favorite Guilty Pleasure’

Los Angeles Times journalist Amy Kaufman is a proud member of #BachelorNation & we connected instantly over our shared history of being banned by 'The Bachelor' franchise. Amy's new book is a New York Times best-seller, 'Bachelor Nation: Inside the World of America's Favorite Guilty Pleasure' & on this part 1 episode, we explored what really goes down behind-the-scenes while chatting about the techniques such as #Frankenbiting that editors use to create storylines, her motivation to do the research & write this book, who Elan Gale is IRL, whether there are real parallels between #TheBachelor & UnReal, psychology profiles, the casting process, questionable edits, 'ITM' interviews, narrative building & much more. Shout-out Ben & Corinne! #AmericasFavoriteGuiltyPleasure #TheTherapist #Part1
