Red Flags and Rose Ceremonies | Reality TV Dating Shows, Love is Blind, The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, Reality TV Therapy

Red Flags and Rose Ceremonies is the podcast where reality dating drama meets real-life therapy. Hosted by licensed therapists Kimberly Vanhooser and Michelle Wayman, we dive into the wild world of shows like The Bachelor, Love is Blind, and Married at First Sight—breaking down the biggest red flags, green flags, and everything in between. With a mix of clinical insight, therapist humor, and candid conversation, we’ll help you laugh at the chaos, learn what healthy (and unhealthy) relationships actually look like, and uncover what these shows can teach us about love, communication, and self-awareness. If you’ve ever yelled at the TV when someone ignored obvious red flags—or secretly wondered what a therapist would say about your favorite reality TV couple—you’re in the right place. Tune in for entertaining recaps, professional commentary, and a fresh perspective on dating, relationships, and the psychology behind the drama. Perfect for fans of reality dating shows who want laughs, therapy-level insight, and a deeper understanding of modern love.
