Episode 9: Young, Fertile, Glowing
Oct 25, 2017Tap to summarizeIt’s week 2 of Bachelor Canada and Chris has taken the women to Costa Rica. This week, there are two group dates and one one-on-one date (man, I hate typing that). Chris and Lyndsey play an ill-advised round of How Old Do You Think I Am?, Brittany M. grows into her role of the beautiful evil genius, and the women ask themselves “how do you solve a problem like Shanti?” I also discuss my distrust of anyone who chooses to wear blue contacts, my Harvey Weinstein news cycle exhaustion, and whether or not you should marry the dude you fell in love with when you were 20.

Transcribe →Episode 8: Screechin’ In
Oct 17, 2017Tap to summarizeDid you miss me? Drunk at Sunrise is back, and this time, we’re in Canada, eh. Chris LeRoux is Canada’s third Bachelor, a retired Major League Baseball player who just wants to settle down with a “nice Canadian girl” after living the professional athlete life for so long (aka boning chicks in every city, right?). In the premiere episode, we are introduced to Chris’s suitors (suitoresses?) who come from everywhere from Victoria, BC to Deer Lake, Newfoundland. This episode has everything: a mermaid/squirrel whisperer, Newfie accents, blindingly white veneers, a wee breakdown, and Emo, Ontario. Episodes will be uploaded every Monday night (I promise). Cheers! Listen to Episode 8 here Note: my apologies for the high-pitched whine in the background of this week’s episode, I’ll try to have it fixed for the next time I record. xo Emma
Transcribe →Episode 7: Tackily, Tackily
Aug 12, 2017Tap to summarizeWell, we did it kids. We officially have a Bachelorette with a NEIL LANE ring on her finger. In this 1.5 hour extravaganza, I recap the Final Rose episode, and critique its bizarre, never-done-before format. Did Rachel make the correct decision, or is she totally forcing it? Should she and Bryan really be shilling for Lord and Taylor? Was Rachel really trying to sabotage Peter’s chances at being the next Bachelor? Did Eric ever stand a chance with Rachel at all? I tackle it all in Drunk at Sunrise’s seventh instalment. Thank you so much for tagging along with me on this Journey, and I’ll see you next week in Paradise! Listen to Episode 7 here
Transcribe →Episode 6: His Name is Winner
Jul 28, 2017Tap to summarizeIt’s the men’s turn to meet Rachel’s family this week and the *FANTASTY SUITES* are around the corner. This week, I get a little more personal (raw) [that’s a Lindsay Lohan reference] by talking about my painful zit, my mediocre prom date, and being honest about my kitchen being full of flies. The traditional Bachelorette format got flipped around this week, as the remaining three men got to meet Rachel’s family in Dallas ahead of the Fantasy Suite dates in Spain. Peter is the family’s favourite while still being wary of proposing, Eric is his usual cheerful self, and Bryan (yet again) lays it on way. too. thick. Listen to Drunk at Sunrise Episode 6 here Notes: The New Yorker article written by Doreen St. Felix I mention in this episode can be found here The opening credits for Bryan Abasolo’s reality television debut, The Player, can be found here. Please watch it. I’m still laughing. The American Idol-esque singing competition I briefly discuss in this episode was called Superstar USA (also from 2004) and it really was as cruel as I remember it being. Yikes.
Transcribe →Episode 5: A Bit Of A Cringe
Jul 21, 2017Tap to summarizeIt’s week 8 and we’ve finally reached the hometown dates. Rachel treks all over the country from Baltimore to Miami, Madison to Aspen, and finally to her own hometown of Dallas. Tune in to hear me try to work out my feelings about Bryan’s bizarre relationship with his mother, Eric’s delightful Auntie Verna, Peter’s so-called flakiness and even my Bachelorette Canada opinions (Jasmine & Mikhel 4ever). I also delve into the exploitation of Dean’s family tragedy. I’m a Deanie Baby for liiiife. Recommendation of the week: PLEASE go to Peter’s Instagram (@peterkrauswi) to see his touching photo & note to Dean. They seem to have a very real, very cool friendship going on. Who isn’t a Dean stan? Listen to Episode 5 here Don’t forget that Drunk @ Sunrise is now on iTunes! You can subscribe and comment here
Transcribe →Episode 4: Matt For Bachelor 2018
Jul 15, 2017Tap to summarizeListen to Episode 4 I’m back after a two week break, and Rachel has eliminated 9 men since I last recorded. In this episode, I briefly touch on what we missed in Episodes 5 & 6 of The Bachelorette, as well as take a deep dive into this week’s dates and dramas.
Transcribe →Episode 3: CAN UR MAN SPELL???
Jun 25, 2017Tap to summarizeIt’s been a really tough week, you guys! In this episode, I (somewhat) briefly discuss the Bachelor in Paradise scandal and the brand new revelation that season 4 of the series will, in fact, continue filming. I address that discussing sexual assault, alleged or otherwise, can be difficult and/or triggering for some (myself included). And then, it’s business as usual as I recap what went down on this week’s episode of The Bachelorette, which included some tragic backstory-telling, a suggestive spelling bee, and more of Lee’s disgusting behaviour. Next week is a double whammy, with Bachelorette episodes airing both Monday and Tuesday night. I am going away on Thursday for Canada Day weekend, so who knows when I’ll be recording next?? To be determined… Listen to Episode 3
Transcribe →Episode 2: Horse Cupcakes
Jun 8, 2017Tap to summarizeIt’s Week 3 of being the Bachelorette for Rachel Lindsay, and this. episode. has. everything. Rejection. Bananas. Multiple references to stripping. Mud pits. Armchair psychology. Good ol’ fashioned racism. Horse cupcakes. Sit back and enjoy as I stumble through my thoughts, feelings, comments, and concerns. Some notes on this week’s episode: – Danielle Maltby (from Nick’s season and the upcoming season of Bachelor in Paradise) did, in fact, have a fiancé who passed away. Tragic backstory? Check. – I can do a better Russian accent than the horrifying one I do here, I promise! I am so sorry. – I was correct, The Ellen DeGeneres Show is an NBCUniversal production. – Around the 22 minute mark, I briefly say that Peter has an “open book face” – I actually meant to say this about Fred. Fred’s emotions were written all over his face during this episode. – I just want to point out that I mentioned both the Spice Girls and the Backstreet Boys this week. – In this episode, I use the Zac Brown Band as an example of a C-list country group, when they are actually very successful Grammy winners. My bad! I should’ve used someone like Chris Lane (who?) as an example instead. He performed on the show last season. – Around the 36 minute mark, I yell into the mic while imitating Lee. I’m sorry, I got carried away. – Whaboom and Blake were much better examples of contestants “sinking their own ship,” “showing their asses,” etc. Contestants: let the weirdos be weirdos and the attention-seekers be attention-seekers. The Bachelor/Bachelorette will eventually figure it out themselves and send them home. Rachel did it week 3! No need to tattle. Listen to Episode 2
Transcribe →Episode 1: Cool Your Jets, Jack
Jun 5, 2017Tap to summarizeIt’s here, and only two weeks late! Drunk @ Sunrise is a no-frills Bachelorette recap, just my off-the-cuff musings about Rachel Lindsay and her drunken batch of suitors. From now on, I will try to publish new episodes every Thursday night. A few notes on this ep: – Bentley Williams (father of Cozy) was on Ashley Hebert’s season of The Bachelorette, not Desiree Hartsock’s, as I claimed here. – my “most perfect couple in Hollywood right now” is actually Chrissy Teigen and John Legend. How could I have forgotten them, my second set of parents… – I was needlessly harsh on DeMario’s ex Lexie’s look. Apologies, my sweet angel. That scrunchie tho. – Check out Phoebe Robinson’s great (and hilarious) comments on this season here: www.instagram.com/p/BUsZyyuFeNF/?t…ueenpheebs&hl=en Listen to Episode 1
