  • 'The Ultimatum: Queer Love' S2 Finale Delivered Romance & Heartbreak
    Jul 3 2025

    “The Ultimatum: Queer Love” finale had it all: Proposals! Confrontations! A dramatic breakup! This season was a true emotional rollercoaster, in all of the best ways. We got to see some real growth from both couples as well as individuals, while others couples are to untangling hard truths right up to the end. (Yes, we ARE talking about you, Mel and Marie.)

    We taped this episode ahead because of our insane schedules, so this podcast will only include discussion of episodes 8 and 9 of “Queer Love” S2. A separate podcast about the (honestly quite juicy) reunion will be coming soon.

    If one can say anything uplifting about season 2 of “The Valley,” it’s probably that the show is, at least, providing video documentation of Jax Taylor’s misdeeds — and his slimy attempts to throw blame for his horrific behavior on everyone around him, his ex-wife Brittany Cartwright in particular.

    In this latest batch of episodes, Jax steps up his harassment of Britt. He continues to rage-text her, reaches out to their mutual friends and family to try to convince them he’s truly changed and needs Britt’s sympathy and care, watches her from the family home’s interior surveillance cameras, apparently fakes (or at least exaggerates) a medical emergency, dumps his disastrous financial problems on her, and continues to imply (under the guise of taking full accountability) that Britt is responsible for his bad behavior. After all, she should have held him accountable before! She should have left him! He wishes she had! Oh, if only someone had forced him to be less of a piece of s**t!
