Hello again! It’s me, Rebecca, one of your trusty recappers. The other is my good friend Patrick Lenton. You can tell the difference between me and Patrick easily - he is the one with COVID-19.

me, about Patrick

Today I am tackling episode 3 of Byron Baes! I am enjoying the show, and I think it is improving with each episode, so I am looking forward to seeing what comes. I think one thing that helps is they have a big enough cast that they don’t need to drop in on any one combination too much, so it feels like it’s hopping along at a good pace. Also there are lots of gays and girlies, which is something we often miss from shows like The Bachelorette, and it feeds my damn soul!

I do need to say that it is one of the more obviously produced reality shows of this nature that I’ve seen for a while, you can sometimes almost see the shadow of someone offscreen having just told them what question to ask. This is fine!! Basically every reality show is scripted to some degree, but it can be a bit distracting. I guess I just wanted you to know that I know, so when I am recapping things and taking the situations as they appear, you know that I know, and I know that you know I know, so we can all have a nice time. You know?

As usual, I will be ranking this episode from who annoyed me least, to who annoyed me most. Hooray!!!
