  • Summary

  • Dear Shandy is a dating advice podcast where Sharleen Joynt and her husband Andy Levine answer your burning relationship questions from the perspective of a happily married couple. Sharleen and Andy are two fiercely independent people who are skeptical of love stories and don’t believe in fate, soulmates, or The One. So how did they wind up so happily married? They learned the dating lessons by living them. Get no-holds-barred, honest advice from two people who actually have what you want: a fun, blissful partnership. But there's more! As an iconic former Bachelor contestant, Sharleen invites Bachelor Nation couples on for intimate double dates called Love Fests. Last, but certainly not least, Sharleen brings her insider knowledge and Andy delivers hilarious comic relief to combine for what are hands down the best Bachelor recaps in the business. New episodes drop every Thursday, and during Bachelor seasons, recaps drop on Tuesdays!

    Confessions With 'The Ultimatum''s Nicholas Tramontin - Ep 360
    Jan 23 2025
    It's a BIG day, Shandies! We've been wanting to pick Nick Tramontin's brain since we recapped his season of The Ultimatum, and that day is officially here. Plus, it's been awhile since we've had a Confessions episode and we're thrilled everyone's favorite Tortured Artist agreed to join us! Today Nick shares the most common misconceptions about him, whether or not he thinks Netflix plied him with alcohol on purpose, his HONEST thoughts on Sandy, Mariah and Vanessa. We also find out whether or not it's possible to make great art without being a little bit "tortured". Bonus: We get the dirt on Bob Ross and Nick judges Andy's own "La Banane" painting! 🍌 We enjoyed this conversation and think you will, too!

Best podcast!

Sharleen and Andy together are Shandy! They are the best relationship (platonic or romantic) podcast and my favorite companion on a drive or alongside a nice matcha (or often both! Though I prefer just the latter.). The podcast has a variety of episodes, including "Love Fests," where they interview a cool couple, expertise episodes where they discuss relationships with an an expert, Q&A episodes where they answer written questions, and caller episodes where they answer questions live. This variety makes for the spice of podcast life, and I savor each kind. They also have the best Bachelor/ette/Paradise Recaps in the business, if that's your style of show. I prefer watching on YouTube to catch Sharleen's beautiful wardrobe and/or Andy's socks, but sometimes the audio is all I have time for. I highly recommend if you like excellent chemistry, top tier humor, and the occasional (okay, regular) hot take. You won't regret it!
