Speaker 1: I'm doing good. So we're gonna for our listeners, We're

10
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: gonna break this down into three segments. We're gonna first

11
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: talk a little bit about ourselves because we are so interesting,

12
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,839
Speaker 1: and then we have segment two where we're gonna have

13
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: our hot takes on what's going on in Bachelor Nation

14
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: right now. And then segment three, we're just gonna talk

15
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: about the upcoming season of Bachelor in Paradise. Okay, So,

16
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: SERENI finally got approved for your green card, which I

17
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: don't think people understand what a lengthy process this has been.

18
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: Started it what like two years ago, almost two years ago.

19
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 3: Well, we got married at the courthouse in October of

20
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 3: twenty twenty two.

21
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty twenty two.

22
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 3: October twenty seventh, twenty twenty two was our official date.

23
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 3: Of marriage and we essentially started the process right away.

24
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 3: That doesn't mean the application got submitted immediately, but we

25
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 3: worked with our immigration lawyers to get everything prepared and filed.

26
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: So yeah, basically started immediately.

27
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 3: So it's been a two and a half year process,

28
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 3: which from some of the dms I've received from other

29
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 3: people that have gone through it, that seems to be

30
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:42,400
Speaker 3: kind of how it goes.

31
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: Like.

32
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 2: Some people obviously got it faster.

33
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 3: Some people were like more on the three year mark,

34
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 3: but I did have a lot of people say it

35
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 3: took me about two two and a half years as well.

36
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: But you also chose the option where you could go

37
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: back and forth to Canada as much as you'd like.

38
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: Yes, so some people do the process where they cannot

39
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 3: leave of the country, Like I know someone that did it,

40
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 3: and you basically are stuck in the US. You cannot

41
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 3: leave until your application has been approved. And I know

42
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 3: that that's a lot faster of an option, you know,

43
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 3: I think we're looking at closer to the one year mark.

44
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 3: But for me, having family in Canada and so many

45
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 3: of my close friends being there and you know, elderly grandparents,

46
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 3: I was like, that's just not an option that is

47
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 3: going to work for me, So I would rather this

48
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 3: take a longer period of time. You know, I was

49
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 3: on a work visa, we had options, and yeah, I

50
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 3: just I think that was the right decision. Looking back,

51
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 3: I don't regret it, even though it was a long

52
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 3: draining process.

53
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, so a few Actually for the green card process,

54
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 1: there really wasn't that many bumps around, just a lot

55
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: of a lot of paperwork that comes along with it

56
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 1: that you had to do. I mean, you put together

57
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: a binder that's as big as an encyclopedia. I don't

58
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: even know I'm a a. I don't even think I

59
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: have that many files about myself.

60
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 3: If anyone needs me to prove that Joe and I's

61
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 3: marriage is for the right reasons, I can do it.

62
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 2: I have a binder ready to show you.

63
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's actually I have to look through that. I

64
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: might look through that one night. But we go to Montreal,

65
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: which it was my first time going to Montreal, and

66
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 1: it's a beautiful city. Jesus Christ. I mean I said

67
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 1: city or province and people are uprising.

68
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 3: Well it is so funny because well a Canadians are

69
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 3: proud people, and I think that we, you know, are

70
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 3: maybe more low key about it than Americans pride for

71
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 3: their country. But we are so proud to be Canadian.

72
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 3: I'm so proud to be Canadian. I feel like, you know,

73
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 3: being Canadian as a part of who I am.

74
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 2: But like they're just defensive, you know.

75
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 3: And it is ironic because we learned so much about

76
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 3: America and American geography as Canadians and you guys just

77
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 3: learned nothing. But at the same time, as someone who's

78
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 3: so bad at geography, I did not expect people to

79
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,839
Speaker 3: come for you the way they did when you post

80
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 3: on social media calling it a city or a province,

81
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 3: because also Quebec is a province, but then there's Quebec City,

82
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 3: which is a city.

83
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: So like I also, I also just pick up my

84
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: phone and talk, you know, like I could have been

85
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: like talking about like we could have been in like

86
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: San Francisco, and I would have been like this city

87
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: or town or whatever it is, like you know, like

88
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, I was just I was just talking fast.

89
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 1: I didn't give it much thought. But Jesus, clearly, yeah,

90
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: clearly clearly. So for all the people I offended, you know,

91
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: I'm not really sorry, but you know, next time, next time.

92
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 2: Now to call it a city, yeah next time.

93
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, now I know, to call it the city, but yeah, beautiful.

94
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: I love montrealreat.

95
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 2: What was your favorite part in Montreal?

96
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: I just I do really like I like. I like

97
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: the look of old Montreal. I like the cobblestone streets,

98
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: I like all like the designs of a lot of

99
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: the restaurants. I thought the restaurants and the food was excellent,

100
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: Like I liked. Everywhere we went for the most part

101
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: was good. Except the bagels. Bagels can compare to New

102
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 1: York bagels like not even in like no, like for

103
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 1: even be in the same discussion. They're not even in

104
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 1: the same discussion.

105
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 2: I actually can agree with that.

106
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 3: I mean, they're kind of hard to compare because obviously

107
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 3: they're just a different style of bagel. But the bagel

108
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 3: sandwich that you got, like the lack of effort put

109
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 3: into it, it looked gross, Like it grossed me out

110
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 3: looking at it, And you would just never catch that

111
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 3: happening in New York and the bagel shops.

112
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,119
Speaker 2: I just feel like there's so much more pride around

113
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 2: the bagels there.

114
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 1: Oh it was, it was.

115
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 2: It was gross, it really, and that takes a lot

116
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 2: for me to say.

117
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 3: For me to call something gross, I don't feel like

118
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 3: I use that word a lot about food.

119
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 2: And I was really grossed out by what you were eating.

120
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: But the smoke meat sandwich was really good. From Delicious,

121
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: from Schwartzes, but yes, and then.

122
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 3: Joe Beef lived up to the hype. Absolutely, I loved it.

123
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: But Manchos, but we were a little Serena was very

124
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: you were very stressed. You were very Yeah, you have

125
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: your big your big buyd there. We feel pretty good.

126
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,840
Speaker 1: But you keep saying that I feel like something's gonna

127
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: go wrong. You know, I am in my head, I'm

128
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: like I wouldn't even I would have showed up with

129
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: like the minimum, and I feel like you have gone

130
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: like over the top with what you're bringing. So I'm like,

131
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: you are definitely gonna be good. And then well, I've.

132
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 3: Been working for so long on it too, and like

133
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 3: just ensuring everything is like ready to go and having

134
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,039
Speaker 3: like I'm literally blowing up my immigration lawyer's email every

135
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 3: single day, Like I've been working with this girl for

136
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 3: like years and she's probably never heard from me this

137
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 3: much because I'm just like it's it's expensive too, right,

138
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 3: Like we're paying to fly out there. We're paying for

139
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 3: the hotels, we're paying for ubers, and like as much

140
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 3: as we ended up trying to make it a little

141
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 3: bit more of like a fun getaway, and at times

142
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 3: it was like there is this underlying and pending doom

143
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 3: all week about the you know, the star of the show,

144
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 3: which is the green Card interview.

145
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then you walk in. I have to leave you.

146
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: I can't even go in. Initially, I was like, this

147
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: is going to be like the movie Proposal.

148
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you guys have seen that movie Sandra Bullock

149
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 3: and Ryan Reynolds, she's a Canadian and the movie ends

150
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 3: with like this green Card interview scene. It almost feels

151
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 3: like like a random little it's like with the credits

152
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 3: and they're both in this room being interviewed together, kind

153
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 3: of proving that they know each other and being interviewed

154
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 3: about each other separately and all this stuff.

155
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was like, I was so ready for that,

156
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: and then we get there. But then I knew right now, but.

157
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 3: We knew, we know before we got there, you weren't

158
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 3: going to be going in with me. I didn't know

159
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 3: you wouldn't be loud in the building. I thought you'd

160
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 3: be able to come sit in the waiting room with me,

161
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 3: and they were like, sir, step outside.

162
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 2: This place is not for you. You already are a

163
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 2: US citizen.

164
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: Government buildings are no joke.

165
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 2: They are no joke.

166
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: You're just not getting in. So yeah, so I go out,

167
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: I get like, I go to Mindy's, Mindy's or Mandy's.

168
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 2: Oh did you go to Mandy's again?

169
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: Yeah? Well yeah, I just went and got a smoothie.

170
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: I got like a cherry protein smoothie.

171
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 2: And I was waiting for Sandy Salads.

172
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then about thirty five.

173
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 3: Wait, fun fact for people listening, this is so random,

174
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 3: but Vanessa Grimaldi, who was engaged to Nick File from

175
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 3: his season The Bachelor, it's her sister in laws who

176
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,679
Speaker 3: owned Mandy Salads. So if you ever go to Toronto

177
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 3: or Montreal, they're in both places, and it's like it's

178
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 3: a great little spot.

179
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 2: But just like a random tie back to Bachelor Nation.

180
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I forgot about that. So then yeah, yeah,

181
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: good place. And then Serena text me I don't have

182
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: all the paperwork, and then she calls me and I

183
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: could just hear it in her voice and I walk

184
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: back over and you're standing outside and you start and

185
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: you break down and you start crying, and I'm like,

186
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: oh no, oh no, this is bad, this is bad.

187
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: I know.

188
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 3: And honestly I held it together in there obviously because

189
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 3: there's just nothing I can do. I was working with

190
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 3: inaccurate information of thinking I was fully prepared when I wasn't.

191
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 2: And yeah, there was just something I do.

192
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 3: I didn't have what was necessary for them to let

193
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 3: me proceed with the interview.

194
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: Only one file, only one document, really.

195
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 3: Yes, I had. I was told that an electronic print

196
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 3: out of this document would be fine. It was the

197
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 3: police check. They needed, the original police check that was

198
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,559
Speaker 3: mailed to me. There's like a longer story behind this situation,

199
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 3: but you know, we don't have time for the gist

200
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 3: is I needed the original police check that was mailed

201
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 3: to me and I didn't have it, and there was

202
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 3: just nothing they could do. There was nothing I could do.

203
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 3: And they said like, look, we're sorry, this happened. Sometimes

204
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 3: you're gonna have to rebook, you're gonna have to come back.

205
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 3: We can't proceed with the interview without this document. And

206
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 3: I was like, okay, you know, thank you. The girl

207
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 3: was really nice, like she obviously felt bad.

208
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 2: They don't want to.

209
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 3: They don't want to turn you away obviously, I mean

210
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 3: I would hope not. I'm standing in front of her,

211
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 3: she knows that I'm like hopeful to do this interview,

212
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 3: and she knows that obviously a mistake has been made

213
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 3: and it just it is what it is. So I

214
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 3: was just like, okay, trying to get all the information.

215
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 3: Disappointment is hitting me. I'm like realizing, like this whole

216
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 3: build up of anxiety and stress is like, I'm not

217
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 3: going to get to the finish line today, which I've

218
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 3: been waiting for for two.

219
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 2: And a half years.

220
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 3: I go outside and I literally the mid I see

221
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 3: Jow I break down because honestly was just like I

222
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 3: just like my anxiety was crashing, and also just such

223
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 3: a disappointing moment, like I felt so disappointed, so bummed out,

224
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 3: and just like I cannot believe I have to do

225
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 3: this all over again, and now I have no confidence

226
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 3: in myself that I'm gonna do it correctly.

227
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: It was, yeah, it was. It was really disappointing, but

228
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: we were able to make an appointment. The following week,

229
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: you had the fly back to Toronto and get the

230
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:08,839
Speaker 1: one document that you had at your dad's office, we

231
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 1: get that, do you get that document, you fly back,

232
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: and then you get approved.

233
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 2: Yep, yep. Joe was in Chicago.

234
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,959
Speaker 3: We had already planned after the interview that I was

235
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 3: going to fly to Toronto.

236
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 2: He was going to fly Chicago. We're you're going to

237
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 2: spend some family time.

238
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 3: So I already had a flight booked, I got what

239
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 3: I needed, and then my mom had some points and

240
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 3: she was nice enough to come out with me, which

241
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 3: originally I was like, I feel like, as an adult,

242
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 3: you're like, it's fine, Like I can just do this myself.

243
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 3: I'll just figure it out, Like it's fine. Having my

244
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 3: mom there was the best thing ever. Like I just like,

245
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 3: sometimes you're like I just need my mom and she's

246
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 3: abasing in those situations. Obviously, I would have loved for

247
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 3: you to be there, Joe, but that just didn't make

248
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 3: as much sense.

249
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 2: And yeah, it all worked out, and I'm so relieved.

250
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 3: I'm so happy, and I'm literally, after this podcast going

251
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 3: to pick up my passport so that I can enter

252
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 3: the US and declare that I have a.

253
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 2: Green card and a permanent residency. Yay, okay, clip clap.

254
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: So the story ends with a lovely ending a lovely

255
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: ending her green card and we are good.

256
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 3: And for those asking, I still am a Canadian citizen

257
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 3: and I'm not a US citizen now, so I'll be

258
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 3: a Canadian citizen with a Green card, which is essentially

259
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 3: just a it's like a spousal visa, like it's a

260
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 3: long visa.

261
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 2: I have it for I believe ten years now.

262
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 3: I'll have to renew it or I can eventually then

263
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,479
Speaker 3: apply for US citizenship, which then I would have dual citizenship.

264
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 2: But we are not even thinking that far ahead right now.

265
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 3: I'm just trying to sit in the relief that I

266
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 3: get a break from immigration stuff for a hot minute.

267
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 1: And for those asking, I do now know that Montreal

268
00:12:50,520 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: is a city. Moving on tom two hot takes, which

269
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: over the past few weeks we have discussed some of these,

270
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: but we'll just well, uh, we'll talk about them a

271
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: little more and then we'll move on to upcoming Paradise,

272
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: which we're all excited for because we've had a full

273
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: year break and some big changes in Paradise, so I

274
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: can't wait to see what that's gonna end up being.

275
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 1: But Bache Nation, you know, there was there was obviously

276
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: there was no Bachelorette that was that was that was xed.

277
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: There was rumors that it was potentially Maria, rumors that

278
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: it was I thought it was gonna be Latilla because

279
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: it just seemed like she had gotten her heart broke

280
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 1: broken at the end, that maybe she wasn't ready. But yeah,

281
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: I think my hot take would be, like Victoria Fuller

282
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: for Bachelorette.

283
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 3: I think, well, don't you see the I think I

284
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 3: think Nick had I think Victoria Fuller was on Vile

285
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 3: Files talking about this as well at one point.

286
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, that that makes sense. Maybe that's where the

287
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: rumor came from. Then.

288
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 3: I think that's where I heard it from him, because

289
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 3: I remember scrolling and seeing that they were saying, oh,

290
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 3: there was rumors that you were in talks to do this.

291
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I heard it from our podcast. I think

292
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: I think, like you said it.

293
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 2: Maybe it's just me spreading the rumor. Guys.

294
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's where I heard it from. But yeah,

295
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: like I said, I said it, I think I said

296
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: it last week or two weeks ago. But yeah, I

297
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: think that that would be she would be the pick

298
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: if you were going to pick a past contestant to

299
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: be a lead. I think that's you go with.

300
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't even know if that's a hot take.

301
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure there are people that disagree with it,

302
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 3: so maybe. But I think we've thrown her name out

303
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 3: here like a million times on this podcast. I mean,

304
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 3: I think a lead who has some experience is always great.

305
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 3: She's been on The Bachelor, she's been on Paradise, she's

306
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 3: been in a Bachelor Nation relationship with Greg Grippo, She's

307
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 3: in her late twenties.

308
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 2: I believe she.

309
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 3: Has a house to dogs, like, she's got the life,

310
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 3: she's ready to go, and I mean, she obviously was

311
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 3: very iconic on Pete season of the Bachelor, So yeah,

312
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 3: I don't know. I think the argument against her, if

313
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 3: we're talking about this as a hot take, would be

314
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 3: that she brings a lot of drama to your television

315
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 3: screen and some people prefer it to be a little

316
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 3: bit of a cleaner, simpler, more straightforward love story.

317
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 2: But we don't feel that way here. That's not our preference.

318
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: You think we'll see Greg in Paradise?

319
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 2: Oh, good question. Yeah, I think that's possible, do you? Yeah?

320
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 2: Do you?

321
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, And I feel like I feel like

322
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: Greg is just been out of it for so long.

323
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: I don't see him coming back.

324
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 2: Maybe not, but you never know.

325
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: Bachelor Nation stage coach, that just seems to be a

326
00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: thing that's growing stronger and stronger every year.

327
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 3: Uh.

Speaker 1: Oh? Okay? Oh? Oh? The take is? Man? I just

00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 3: Like you don't love it or hate it? You feel

348
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 3: like people should stop like hating on bacheration from a

349
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 3: stage coach or you think that they should stop being

350
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 3: a stage coach.

351
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,160
Speaker 2: I don't know they looking for your take?

352
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: They do, they hate that vacination for the hat. I

353
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know. Okay, let's say they did.

354
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 1: Let's say they did.

355
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 3: Do you think that? Do you like it or dislike it?

356
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 3: That so much abatcherlation goes to stage coach every year.

357
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: I could care less.

358
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 2: Your take is I could care less?

359
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 1: I yeah, okay, But going back to analytics about stage Coach, yeah,

360
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,360
Speaker 1: is that's like our like the number my number one

361
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: following is like conch Like if I post country anything

362
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: with country or country music, it's more likely people will

363
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: engage with my content because they follow like majority like country.

364
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

365
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 3: To break this down a little clearer, Joe and I

366
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 3: got some back end analytics on our followers, which is

367
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,880
Speaker 3: always super cool and interesting for us to find out

368
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 3: like what people who follow us are interested in. And

369
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 3: one of the number one categories was country music. Like

370
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 3: it wasn't even like in the music category. I think

371
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 3: it was just that alone was a category people love,

372
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 3: which is country music, which.

373
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 2: Is kind of funny.

374
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 3: Neither of us I like country music, but I wouldn't

375
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 3: say like any either of us post a lot about it.

376
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,679
Speaker 3: But It would align with why stagecoach content for a

377
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 3: lot of Vaccination does so well if the Bachination audience

378
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 3: are all really big country music fans, which also makes

379
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 3: sense based on where the demographic of the audience typically

380
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 3: comes from.

381
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: Here's my hot take. My hot take is I don't

382
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: like country music. I don't like country music, and I

383
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 1: don't like seeing country content. Keep your country hats away

384
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 1: from my from my page.

385
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 2: Your cowboy hat.

386
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,360
Speaker 3: You hate country music so much you don't even know

387
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 3: what the icon is called cowboy has.

388
00:18:54,320 --> 00:19:00,119
Speaker 1: Okay, hot take, hot take, hot take people, people have

389
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: been throwing out there, and this will kind of leak

390
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 1: into our Paradise segment that you know, because they're mixing

391
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: Golden with regular Bachelor Nation contestants for Bachelor and Paradise

392
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: could like, could someone hook up from Golden with a

393
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 1: regular contestant? I my hot take is I love that.

394
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: I love that hot take.

395
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 2: No, that's not that's not how it works.

396
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 1: It works, but you choose okay, so.

397
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 3: Like no, no, no, no, you're onto something here. So

398
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 3: my hot take. If we're talking about the topic of

399
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 3: Golden contestants and regular season contestants mix and mingling, getting

400
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 3: romantic my hot take would be that I'm totally fine

401
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 3: with it, which I would say most people it's a

402
00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 3: hot take because most people are like, ew, that's gross.

403
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 3: I hope that doesn't happen. I don't want that, okay,

404
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 3: And it's so I'm going against the majority and saying

405
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 3: that my hot take is that I'm having literally no

406
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 3: issue if that happens.

407
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: Wow, you don't huh, that is a hot takes? That

408
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: is a hot take?

409
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 2: Are you sure you don't even know what a hot

410
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 2: take is?

411
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,879
Speaker 1: Yeah? Well this this, this really this shocked me. So

412
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: do we think there's a world where that does happen?

413
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 2: Okay? So this is what I think.

414
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 3: I think, you know, based on society and what we

415
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 3: are comfortable with when it comes to age gaps. I

416
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 3: think that people will be much less supportive if it's

417
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 3: one of the golden men and one of the younger girls,

418
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 3: and if it's one of the golden girls and the

419
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 3: younger guys, because you know, that's just those two things

420
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 3: are viewed in different ways. I don't think it's going

421
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 3: to happen. I mean, it's definitely on the risk or side.

422
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 3: Do I think that they're gonna go to the boom

423
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 3: boom room. That would be wild, And I don't think

424
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 3: that's gonna happen, even though, like again, I'm so for it,

425
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 3: But I could see, like we've got a young guy

426
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 3: come in and take one of the golden women on

427
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 3: a date, you know what I mean. Like I could

428
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 3: see them like talking one of the guys into being like.

429
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 2: What do you think about Leslie?

430
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 3: Like I feel like she'd be so good for this date,

431
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,959
Speaker 3: Like I feel you guys would hit it off. So

432
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 3: my thing is, like, if one of these fifty six

433
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 3: year old men ends up hitting it off with the

434
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 3: twenty year olds, is that uncomfortable? Definitely that man could

435
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 3: be your father. But if it's naturally happening and it's

436
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 3: two consenting adults, like, let that play out. Let it

437
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 3: play out, Let's see how it goes, Like totally, it's

438
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,919
Speaker 3: not it's not the usual. It's definitely kind of scandalous.

439
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 3: But like I would rather see something organically happen and

440
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,880
Speaker 3: it be kind of like taboo and uncomfortable than see

441
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 3: something like four just for the sake of being like,

442
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 3: we've got a golden and a non golden connection.

443
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 1: Let us see it, let us see it. It's reality TV.

444
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 1: That's what we want to watch, Okay, moving moving on

445
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:26,159
Speaker 1: past Hot Takes two, Segment three, Upcoming Paradise. This was

446
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:31,439
Speaker 1: the show that we met. Some changes, a location change,

447
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:36,119
Speaker 1: which I feel personally. So they are now filming in

448
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: Costa Rica. That's a little sad for us because if

449
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: we ever do get invited back and we have the

450
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,679
Speaker 1: time to go, like you know, it's it's not going

451
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 1: to be the same place we met.

452
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 3: I know, like knowing that the last time we were

453
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 3: there is probably the last time we'll ever be there,

454
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 3: and it is like the place that we like met,

455
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 3: fell in love, got engaged, like a huge part of

456
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,360
Speaker 3: our history. It is sad, Like I like seeing that

457
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 3: on the screen. It makes me feel so sentimental in escalgic,

458
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 3: and I feel like that's got to be a lot

459
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 3: of Paradise couples feel that way. And we do have,

460
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 3: you know, we do so much history there and we

461
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 3: do a lot of Paradise couples. But we were just

462
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 3: in Costa Rica and we did love.

463
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 1: It, Love Costa Rica, Love Costa Rica. But yeah, I

464
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: kind of yeah, it's it's a little it's a little sad.

465
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 3: Uh.

466
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: The other mix is what we just talked about so

467
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 1: we could we could blow past that. The Golden People

468
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: being there and Hannah Brown coming down is like a

469
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 1: champagne room waitress slash, I mean cock cocktail server.

470
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:52,120
Speaker 2: I think she's waitress. Have you ever seen wait staff

471
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 2: in Paradise.

472
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: Well, I've never seen Hannah Brown in Paradise either, so

473
00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 1: that's that's new. I personally I like Hannah Brown. I

474
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 1: think she's great.

475
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's been on our podcast a few times and

476
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 2: she's always so great.

477
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: I don't know how many like like co hosts we

478
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: need on this show at this point, like we are

479
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,439
Speaker 1: now like Jesse Palmer, wells Hannah Brown.

480
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 2: I get what you're saying.

481
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 3: I mean, I love Hannah BROWNE actually think she's a

482
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 3: great fit for this and I'm excited to see what

483
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 3: she brings to the show down there.

484
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 2: I also thought like she hosted, did that she did?

485
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 3: Like that True Circle, she was so good, Like, I

486
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 3: feel really positively about that casting. Obviously I'd feel more

487
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 3: positively if it was one of us.

488
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 2: But no shame, no shame.

489
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 3: We love Hannah Brown and we are very happy for

490
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,920
Speaker 3: her and Mike. Yeah, I guess my question is more

491
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 3: just like, Okay, so We've got Hannah Brown in this

492
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 3: like champagne room. I'm thinking maybe it's gonna be like

493
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 3: she comes out during rose ceremonies and it's like a

494
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,360
Speaker 3: specialty bar situation and people go.

495
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:50,920
Speaker 2: Chot to her.

496
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 3: But obviously we don't know exactly what that entails yet.

497
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 3: But like there's only so much screen time, so like

498
00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 3: now we're not only dividing it up between regular contestants

499
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 3: and Golden Contestants, we're now adding we got Jesse Palmer

500
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 3: Wells and we're adding Hannah Brown. Yeah, so it's like

501
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 3: how big of a role is hers gonna be? Is

502
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 3: that going to impact the amount we see Wells? Is

503
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 3: that going to impact the amount we get to see

504
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:22,160
Speaker 3: of the actual like drama relationships amongst the contestants.

505
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: And you have the Golden Contestants too.

506
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, That's what I'm saying.

507
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 1: Like lot, I just feel like there is a lot.

508
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 2: We're doing a lot.

509
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 3: Like I know, we're trying to come back bigger and

510
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 3: better than ever, and it's like we have a new location,

511
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 3: we got a new bartender, and we got Golden Contestants.

512
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 3: But it's like are we doing too much? Are we

513
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 3: trying to do too much like people like Paradise was

514
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 3: good before. I know, we took a year off and

515
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 3: that was necessary, but like, we got a lot of

516
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 3: good contestants coming this season. I feel optimistic on that alone,

517
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 3: and I feel like there's like more surprises to come potentially,

518
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 3: So I'm feeling like optimistic, but also like a little hesitant,

519
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 3: like how much is changing?

520
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 2: How much are we trying to add? Like why are

521
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 2: we doing so much?

522
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: I agree? I agree, So yeah, it'll be it'll be interesting.

523
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: Do we want to throw out a few potential.

524
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 3: Matches, Yeah, well, we've had some people come on, but like.

525
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,919
Speaker 1: A strong one, like really, don't just like throw some

526
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 1: random one. I want someone that you actually really believe

527
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 1: could happen.

528
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,439
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know who's going, so that kind of

529
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 3: makes it hard. Like once I see the cast list,

530
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,640
Speaker 3: I could really start drafting some predictions.

531
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 1: But well, okay, so I will say.

532
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Alex and Jonathan Alex.

533
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, So that's but that's a good prediction because

534
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: I would assume both in that Well, we know for

535
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 1: sure Jonathan's going to be there.

536
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 3: Yes, And I think it's fair to say Alex is

537
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 3: very likely going to be there as well, unless she's

538
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 3: met someone quietly and we don't know about it.

539
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 2: And I actually think those two would hit it off.

540
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 3: I think that once people start throwing a couple predictions

541
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,199
Speaker 3: are around, those people start to get curious. And I

542
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,199
Speaker 3: feel like I've heard people say Alex and Jonathan, So

543
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 3: there's no way that Alex isn't like checking out Jonathan

544
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 3: and Jonathan's not checking out Alex.

545
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, Okay, I'm gonna say I'm trying to think

546
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,639
Speaker 1: of another guy that I think would be there. Who

547
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 1: was the last season?

548
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 3: Oh, okay, guys, so like Jeremy Hakeem, Jonathan's I'm gonna.

549
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw a random one out there, Okay, Sam

550
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 1: from Gen season which one the one that lasted longer?

551
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:40,959
Speaker 2: Blondie?

552
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of got a little bit the villain edit. Yeah, yeah,

553
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Sam m and Zoe.

554
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 3: What no, no, no, no, no.

555
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 1: I gonna be I just said it's a crazy one.

556
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 2: That's a hot take, Joe, that is a hot take.

557
00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 1: And I'm sticking with it, and I'm sticking with it.

558
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 3: I don't know if I see it, but I mean,

559
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 3: I love an unpredictable couple.

560
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 2: So I'm always for that happening.

561
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 1: Out of the people that we know for sure that

562
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: are going to be there, So we know Zoe's going

563
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 1: to be there for sure, we know Hakem's going to

564
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: be there, and we know Jonathan's going to be there.

565
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:19,959
Speaker 1: Those are the three we know.

566
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 2: And we know Leslie and Gary from Golden.

Speaker 1: Leslie and Gary. Yes, is there out of any of

568
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,200

00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: well in someone in that group? Is? It's not going

570
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 1: to be their environment.

571
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 3: I don't think any of the people that are already

Speaker 3: cast are going to get engaged.
