"me and my mom look like we are on opposite sides of a protest!" had me dying 🤣

[@fallweather874]

I never realized how important a podcast set could be until I haven’t clicked any of the studio videos 😭

[@gracey95]

The studio is not great but the eps are still amazing I urge you to keep going 🎉

[@nowthisisliving]

I'm sorry!!! it's so temporary!! please watch :(((((

[@ilseizi]

@@nowthisisliving The studio is totally fine, but the new bed set will be so much better and more intimate

[@andreeaadn]

Me too. But then I clicked this one, thinking I'll watch for 2 minutes and give it a chance, and then... I watched it all.

[@karinenoblot7352]

[@betsku69]

Shannon your audience is definately not just from the states! Greetings from Finland, love your content

[@zoetyyler]

This is my favorite episode hands down. Not only because Ali and Hallyn are iconic but because the message here is stellar!!!! Ali’s humor is so my avenue 🥳🤩🥰💘

[@zoetyyler]

It’s Ali still tucking her hair behind her ear instinctively and comedically

[@anikarahman193]

"Keep ur shirt on. It's not that kinda show" 🤣

[@WritingRN2]

OMG, this episode was much needed. It put me in such a good mood! Alli is hilarious. From start to finish this episode was delightful. It's now on the list of fave episodes. Alli kept me giggling the ENTIRE time. What a joy she is.😄🙌🏽

[@ITZAKY-o6x]

The record player behind you looks beautiful

[@nowthisisliving]

my friend Kevin gave it to me!!

[@wildestdreams_]

yesssss this was such a good one! adore alli (and hallyn❤)

[@fallweather874]

I definitely guilty pleasure watch religious homestead wife KZbinrs or even some podcasts. I would never subscribe , engage or pay for their content but I just sort of feel like I’m in a museum witnessing something so foreign to me. It’s interesting to listen to them talk about their children in such gendered ways because those things genuinely don’t even cross my mind

[@courtneyhoing]

Same lol

[@freyajane1291]

This is hilarious. Chaos from start to finish and I love it, but suddenly getting TONNES of ads breaking up the ep so ruins the thread 😢 I would 100% watch you two in a full series together 😂

[@ROCKONplaceboforever]

Me and my best friend watch this every week another great ep Alli is hilarious ❤ loved it and im a fan of you and would definitely come to a live comedy show of yours Alli im from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪

[@Nerdemocat]

I never thought I could miss a bed besides mine 😂❤

[@marinageraldini]

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONEEEE

[@shelbyntil1046]

true crime podcasts let’s niche more the classic route but people sometimes hate it. like i need my “white noise” podcast on when i sleep and the homies aren’t vibing while trying to sleep. you’re (and becca’s) are really the only just chatting pods i listen to.

[@shelbyntil1046]

and the books! yessss same thing happens i used to binge tv shows. maybe just cause it’s fresh in your mind? not sure but i just finished the book mistakes are made and i cried. it was just a fun lil cute thing

[@ITZAKY-o6x]

Shannon, I miss your bed every week.

[@nowthisisliving]

you and me BOTH

[@onawacalvin2760]

Hi Shannon, you have momma followers...me!! My son did have to give me some back history but all caught up. 💕🙌🏽🙋🏽

[@rileyjin707]

I always have to make sure people know what shows I’m watching etc. If I read I’m sure I do it with books too.

[@nicolette329]

I adore Alli and Hallyn. You look beautiful Shannon. Have a great rest of the week and TY for another great ep

[@GingerPhoenix223]

THE WAY MY JAW DROPPED

[@KarterC]

Such a great episode!

[@kayleeaguirre6491]

I LOVE ALI WITH ALL MY HEART HOLLAND SHOULD BE IN AN EPISODE TOO PLEASE

[@laurenblue9699]

Queer love is blind could be separated in a few ways: 1. They are separated until they start narrowing things down - so they are grouped with all the ones they’ve said no to. 2. Two already established friend groups blind dating the other. In theory if they had wanted to date each other they would have already. 3. Separated by compatibility tests. People more likely to be only friends or not compatible grouped together. 4. Embrace the messiness and if romances spark between two people in the same group, they are encouraged to continue exploring pod connections but in the end they are given the option to choose non pod connection as proof that “Love isn’t blind”

[@Amy-lo5pl]

Omg alli is Hilarious you both had me 🤣🤣 🤣She Definitely needs to come back 🙏🙏💯😊❣️

[@GodsFavoriteDaughter.x]

ALLI is SO funny! “Nothing runs in my family” 🤣

[@hannahmccoy1461]

Can this be a routine collab 😂 hilarious

[@TheBloggi]

this one was very fun!

[@VSandTaylorSwiftLove]

I like the studio setting!!! Looks so profesh!!! 🤍

[@Bexlybly]

Gotta love Alli :) great episode!

[@Jordan-jag06]

three years of Texas history?!? lmao that tracks with what I know about Texas tbh

[@JordenMyles]

When is Alli going to do a comedy tour?

[@3051107]

Shannon, you do have moms! 🙋🏼‍♀️

[@katelyngonzalez2129]

Does Shannon age?? I coudnt stop staring at her lol. She still looks 25 to me😭

[@hopesecret7369]

YESSSSSS we NEED a lesbian love is blind for sure!! Honestly I think you just split them 50/50 and they just cant date or fall for anyone that they are seeing in person (though I suspect that may happen and it would make it even more drama filled lol)

[@juliamcelroyart]

Yes. I will find ANY excuse to bring up a book I'm reading lmao.

[@GingerPhoenix4999]

Cracking up while making dinner.... this is the best

[@mykatianworld4676]

What the hell omg not on a different side of a protest 🪧 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@WritingRN2]

That one got me too😂

[@es-ro]

These mics are so comically large 😂

[@lilieshaver2399]

OH MY GOD I was about to tell Alli to come to Dublin and 3 minutes later she's shouting us out!

[@noemichopin]

Aw Shan the studio episodes are good don’t trip :)

[@tianagarcia2795]

I’m a mom && literally your biggest fan 😅😅

[@madaleeX]

I would love a gay love is blind, but my question (like yours) would be, how would they choose to separate the two groups of people? Bc not everyone is masc for fem, or fem for fem, or masc for masc, it could completely vary on who someone is attracted to. I think the best way to do it would be to have both groups be a similar mix of everything. But then the only other concern that comes to mind is, what if people within their own group that are living in the same quarters, become interested in someone there? And then that would defeat the purpose of the whole show which is to find someone from the other group, blindly. But I do think it would be cool for them to still do it bc I know a lot of lesbians that are solely into fems or solely into mascs, and how interesting would it be if someone blindly chose someone that’s the opposite of what they usually want, causing them to question everything and if they can become attracted to the person or not once they see them lol.

[@carligirrl]

I am learning that Alli has great knowledge of history.

[@significantsoil5345]

11:37 me an Indian listening to her say that I'm American now.

[@naomigates6930]

SHUT UP, IVE BEEN WAITIG FOR THIS DUOOO

[@luanacastro524]

Yesss Please! I'm also waiting for the lgbt love is blind! ❤

[@carligirrl]

Me marking my calendar for all of 2025 like "see Alli Bellairs stand up." No like literally I really wanna. Alli, come to Seattle.

[@carlywatkins2247]

Love the Bellairs!! ❤ Ali is hilarious!

[@MAB53]

I'd like to see that short movie! how about you just give us short clips you like from the movie within the podcast here? little is better than none. Like a trailer for the short movie hehe.

[@leawindischbauer4504]

Austrian audience here :)

[@glendaesquivel4216]

Is filming at a studio easier for you? I honestly strongly think the bedroom backdrop was the best. I love your podcasts either way. Just miss the bedroom scene when I’m watching on KZbin!

[@zoetyyler]

Omg Shannon limited edition chucks ????? 😏

[@nowthisisliving]

someone get converse on the line!!!

[@NathCole-j3u]

for a second there, I thought shannon will talk about Warrior Nun when she mentions lesbian nuns 😳

[@NASOPHIL]

i'm dying at the menopause thing

[@3chrissy3abel3]

You’re not alone at all. Speaking of has anyone read Throne of Glass series? 😅

[@katka7036]

Gurl you have an audience in Czechia. You’re reaching more than just Americans. I have friends in Slovakia that are also huge fans. You’ve made your way to Europe also

[@zoetyyler]

“And for like straight couples too?” 😂

[@catherinechase9517]

I love alli

[@brynb1325]

Hi. Mom here.

[@jepeyr01]

I have NEVER clicked so fast!

[@KIARATULSEE]

The bellhairs are the best

[@debbiebeveridge1883]

I want to see Alli’s 2025 show.😊

[@youtubetv3474]

PART 2 - 10 PLEASE!!!!

[@struggling_to_keep_up]

Funniest episode 🤣

[@babyjackpot]

Does anyone else feel so awkward watching this

[@babyjackpot]

Like they are on twoooo different wavelengths lmao

[@jessicakelly3821]

Literally had the same queer love is blind conversation with my girlfriend lol. Best we came up with was to have group A of half the queers and group B of half the queers who date in the pods BUT ALSO probably have some people falling in love with the people in their shared living space. Would probably end up being real messy lol

[@icedoatm1lklatte]

you and ashley gavin should make a lesbian love is blind type show

[@twildabuckingham]

Guess I'm the only one who only associated queer women named Holland with Holland Taylor cause for the first bit of this, as I sawed some 2x8s for my new deck as a good queer girl does, just assumed that's who we meant.

[@mykatianworld4676]

What nooo I love gingers Com’on

[@ITZAKY-o6x]

Victoria Paris！I need her on your podcast

[@hilarious557rox]

okay I did nOT know Alli is from VA! Im in VA🤩 but yes so virginia is south based on the the fact that richmond was the capital of the confederacy. I grew up in Maryland which was a split state during slavery but to me slavery is where that true definition of “south and north states” lies… Maryland had a LOT of slave holders and enslaved people including most notably HARRIET TUBMAN.

[@JordenMyles]

I feel like Shannon could direct a queer season of love is blind

[@LauraOstini]

Love this podcast so much but not gonna lie the timing of the ad just in the pits of chatting depression felt strange to me

[@LauraOstini]

Great episode tho! I love you both

[@nowthisisliving]

it’s just automatically around 15 minutes!! but i totally hear you. i’ll try to be more mindful!!!😊

[@dawnlowe9524]

Hilarious 😂😂😂😂

[@Oneness298]

south is below the mason dixon line. richmond va
