1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,120 Speaker 1: This is the Fitty and Whipper with Kate Richie podcast. 2 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 2: Last night fits Big one on Maps Maps. 3 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:08,280 Speaker 3: It was the first in a party last night. I 4 00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,240 Speaker 3: think this is a record because I think this is 5 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 3: one of the first times a contestant has left after 6 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,119 Speaker 3: a couple of days. Elliott was not there. Elliott was 7 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,439 Speaker 3: not happy with his wife Lauren, and he sat down 8 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 3: with the expect John Aiken to talk about it a 9 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 3: little bit more. 10 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: Let's be honest. You're here on the show because you're 11 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: thirty five and single and you've been going out with 12 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 1: young women and it hasn't worked. 13 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 4: And I get that narrative that it's not a narrative, 14 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 4: it's just fact. 15 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: I think that you are involved in a pattern, a 16 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 1: toxic pattern. You've been matched with someone who, after two days, 17 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: you've decided isn't right, and you're running. I need you 18 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: to look at yourself and ask yourself, why am I 19 00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 1: sabotaging these relationships? I don't is my own time? That's 20 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 1: your problem? Oh it was deep. 21 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 3: He lasted two days on MATS and he joins us. Now, Elliot, 22 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:10,839 Speaker 3: welcome to the fits Me with Cad Richie Show. 23 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 4: Hey boys, how you doing? 24 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 3: Massive? 25 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 2: Very Elliott Massive. 26 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 3: Now before we start, I need to ask you, Elliot, 27 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 3: have you not watched the show before? Like, I mean, 28 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 3: do you honestly believe that they're going to match you 29 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 3: with someone who you would like to go onto the 30 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,199 Speaker 3: show with? Did you honestly think that that was ever 31 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 3: going to happen? 32 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 4: You know, that's the biggest question ever. Already always asked me, 33 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 4: like they're like, haven't you seen the show? And actually, 34 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 4: to be fair, like in the beginning of the audition phase, 35 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 4: I had never watched it, Like I didn't see one episode. 36 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 4: I never applied for it. They had a casting agent 37 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 4: approached me on Instagram and be like, oh, yeah, we 38 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 4: should you should have auditioned for the biggest show in 39 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 4: Australia yep. And I didn't even know what it was, 40 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 4: Like I thought it could be The Block or something, 41 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 4: and I was like, all right, yeah, I love Reasons, Yeah, 42 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 4: let's have a look at it. And then when I 43 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 4: found out it was Mass, I kind of pulled out 44 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 4: and I said, look, I'm not really interested in doing this. 45 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 4: I watched a few episodes of the previous season. I 46 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 4: was like, uh, you know, it seemed like it the 47 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 4: patterned to me. It seemed like every season they have 48 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 4: like maybe one maybe two, like actual good matches that 49 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 4: get along, they're right for each other and have a 50 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 4: great time, and then the rest this contry was like yeah, 51 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 4: just like bickering and arguing and not suggesting. 52 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 2: They try to validate the series each year, can I 53 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 2: ask Eliet? Because Lauren is a really beautiful looking girl, 54 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 2: like and she's a fantastic person. So it seemed like 55 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 2: such a big decision and what we saw was just 56 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 2: you basing your decision on her age being two years 57 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 2: older than you. 58 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 3: Is that a big deal? 59 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 4: Well, you know it's amazing girl. Yeah, Look, no arguments there. 60 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 4: For me, it's it's not that I'm saying she's not. 61 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 4: It's just there's a lot of things that they didn't 62 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 4: show where we just didn't click right. And to be fair, 63 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 4: when I went on the show, I did it on 64 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 4: the thing. I actually told them up front. I was like, look, 65 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 4: if I get match with someone that's like outside of 66 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 4: what I'm looking for, like, I'll just leave it. I 67 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 4: said it over and over again, and so so it's like, 68 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 4: you know, they've just been they've just smashed their head 69 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 4: against the wall and said, why are you doing this 70 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 4: to us, like why are you leaving? And it's like, well, 71 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 4: I literally said exactly what I would do if you 72 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 4: did that, and then you did it, and then you're 73 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 4: like surprised at the result you got. It's like yeah, yeah, warrant. 74 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 4: It was more like we had very different family goals 75 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 4: in mind, and so something like that. I get it. 76 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 4: I get it, Like you know, oh, you can work 77 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 4: on it, you can work on all these things. But 78 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 4: if she's not really that interested in having family and 79 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 4: that's something that's like the most important thing for me, 80 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 4: she could be she could be Miranda krr. It doesn't 81 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 4: matter to me, Like does. 82 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: She want to have a family? 83 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 4: She said her words exactly. Her words exactly were, look 84 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 4: at the most, I would have one child, like I 85 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 4: am going to freeze my eggs, and then later on 86 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 4: in life, I'll consider having one kid. And that to 87 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 4: me is like it's just two different futures. No, no, no, 88 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 4: I want someone that's excited to be a mom and 89 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 4: is like that's what I want to be in life, 90 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 4: not someone that's like, oh, look, I don't want it 91 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 4: to get in the way of you know, my career 92 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 4: or whatever like that, because. 93 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, so we need it all right. So 94 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 3: you so you were approached to go on the shape, 95 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 3: you were hesitant about doing it.
