  • The Final 4 and Mustard Pancakes?
    Mar 28 2023

    After a period of time to grieve the loss of our dear friend in life, as in our podcast ventures, we honor my very close friend of the Swanton Pod, Checkmate w/ Bishop & Knight, Guy Wire and close friend and ally to The Last Stand Podcast, the one and only, Bad Bod Dad Bod - Matt Knight. Due to heightened emotions, there's only a brief segment to start this weeks episode. We appreciate all the time off and the understanding as this has been very difficult. Podcasting was something we started together and now, feels like I'm flying without a captain.


    We try our best to make up for lost time by covering all episodes missed, this brought us all the way through hometowns! We will address Overnights and the Tell All when we do our finale wrap up! We hope you enjoy.


    There is a bit of an editing change so, you'll notice the music is affected in the intro and outro but these have been resolved for all future episodes. Thank you again and please give us your feedback.

  • London's Calling for a Virtual Bachelor? Lame!
    Feb 27 2023

    Just in time, hours ahead of the new episode airing, we slipped this one under the wire so you can refresh yourself of all the ridiculousness of last week! Covid sets things back, the trash gets taken out and some emotions get stirred up in the town of BIG BEN!  

    Hosts Kevin & Rylee reminisce about a Stavros Halkias show in Richmond, VA, how virtual goodbyes probably sting the most and how one maybe shoulda sorta kinda acted when dealing with sensitive people in this 'virtual Bachelor bubble'. 

    Keep up with us on our socials:

  • A NUKE, defined &... Brooklyn going to Hometowns?
    Feb 17 2023

    Instagram is the Kiss of Death and the immediate 'bag packer' once again! We define what losing looks like on the show in the phrase of a NUKE. We take a stab at who might be sticking around this season for the long haul and we even made a side bet! 

    Who are the real winners and losers this week? Which of your hosts took home the most points; is it finally Bishop's turn to gain some headway?  The points, a BRAND NEW INSTAGRAM and as always, so much more.

  • Night 2 but wait... UPDATE: Racist Greer?
    Feb 1 2023

    UPDATE: Greer might be a racist? What they said about what she said (not in the greatest of detail, but the gist of it anyway)

    Night 2 is over and did cooler heads prevail? No, you're right. Some chill got sent home and the producers kept the crazy on board.

    Taz'manian Devil puts on her Bad B Energy and gets the BOOT! Is The Zachelor about to be a Ztep Zaddy? 

    This is and the rest of the televised tea on episode 3! Tune in and play along!
