1 00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: Hey, everyone, welcome back to bacher Happy Hour. 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,520 Speaker 2: I'm Joe and I'm Srina and we are back for 3 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 2: part two with Susannah, who you also may know as 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:10,799 Speaker 2: Bachelor Data. 5 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 3: Let's get into it. 6 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 2: Can we talk about because we've been touching on, you know, 7 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 2: Daisy Maria, Joey's season. It's no secret that, like Peter 8 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 2: season was huge. Obviously you said, like the fastest biggest 9 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,799 Speaker 2: follower growth we've seen, and then there was kind of 10 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 2: this decline and you know, we had the year with 11 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 2: the two Bacherette seasons, and we had COVID and we 12 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,480 Speaker 2: had TikTok coming and like so much kind of happened 13 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 2: in that pocket of time, and then we saw this 14 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 2: crazy spike that kind of felt like out of nowhere 15 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 2: with Joey season. Can you kind of walk us through 16 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,959 Speaker 2: that trajectory and like maybe why that happened the way 17 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 2: it did. 18 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, that was truly such a crazy season with social 19 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 4: media growth. I was expecting it to do well, but 20 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 4: not as well as it did. So to talk about 21 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 4: social media growth the best, the one of the data 22 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 4: points that I love to look at is the average 23 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 4: follower count of the final four contestants the night before 24 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 4: hometown airs. So I have that for like, gosh, fifteen 25 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 4: twenty seasons now, like there's been a lot of seasons 26 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 4: since I started to track every single day that I 27 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 4: have this data consistently. I don't have it for Becca season, unfortunately, 28 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,320 Speaker 4: but I do for Colton and on. And what's interesting 29 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 4: is we saw that big increase up until Peter's season, 30 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 4: So that average went from twenty eighteen to twenty nineteen. 31 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 4: So from who was just before Colton Ari Ari Ari. 32 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 4: From Ari's season, the final four contestant average was one 33 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 4: hundred sixty three thousand followers. Then Colton's season was four 34 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 4: hundred sixty seven thousand followers, So that's one hundred and 35 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 4: eighty percent growth from that season to the next. Then 36 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 4: going from Colton to Peter season, the next season, it 37 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 4: was four hundred eighty one thousand followers. That was just 38 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 4: a three percent jump, but they did see bigger growth 39 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 4: those last few weeks. Then there was a big dip 40 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 4: after that, so it dropped by sixty percent most years, 41 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 4: So it went down sixty two percent from Matt, from 42 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 4: Peter to Matt season, and then sixty four percent from 43 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 4: Matt to Zach's season, and then from Zach's season to 44 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 4: Joey's season, it jumped five hundred and fifty five percent. 45 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 4: So it went from Zach's season his final four contestants. 46 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 4: Their average the night before Hometowns was thirty seven thousand followers, 47 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 4: which was nothing. Yeah, going back to Peter's season, it 48 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 4: was four hundred eighty one and then it dropped to 49 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 4: thirty seven k. 50 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 3: So was the average for Matt's season. 51 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 4: Matt season was one hundred eighty two thousand. 52 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yeah. 53 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 4: Which I can send you all of your follower accounts 54 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 4: from your season. 55 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 3: Oh my god, I'm too scared. 56 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: So why do you think that is? I mean, I 57 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: have my reasoning why I think it was personally is 58 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: I think I think people just love Joey. I think 59 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: Joey has somewhat of a like a little bit of 60 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: an it factor to him that people just and I 61 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:14,079 Speaker 1: think I think the younger generation, like that Gen Z generation, 62 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: really just found Joey attractive. 63 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, they were crushing and they were. 64 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: Crushing on Joey, and I think that was a big, 65 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: a big reason for that job. 66 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 4: Yeah. We we also have to remember that Joey's season 67 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 4: just came came right after Golden Bachelor and Golden Bachelors. Yeah, 68 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 4: crazy records. It brought so many viewers back to the franchise. 69 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 4: I think if I remember, his average viewership, like total 70 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 4: viewers for his season was like six million followers, which 71 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 4: was crazy because we were at the point where other 72 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 4: shows were getting like two million viewers, not followers, viewers, 73 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 4: So that that brought a lot of viewership back. And 74 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 4: then I think the casting of Joey. You know, Joey 75 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 4: was an amazing lead, and I think he doesn't give 76 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 4: himself enough credit. I remember listening to him on Taylor 77 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 4: Latner's Tay and Taylor Blattner's podcast, and he was talking 78 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 4: so much about like learning about what imposter syndrome meant, 79 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 4: and like he was a lead that really fed to 80 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 4: both generations who watched this show. He really fed to 81 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 4: the older generations who were like, oh, this is such 82 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 4: a young, cute young man blah blah blah. Like that 83 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 4: that's what my mom would say, right, yeah, Like he's 84 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 4: so sweet, he's so genuine, blah blah blah. But then 85 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 4: he also had the gen z who are just standing 86 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 4: over him because he has like emotional intelligence and everything. 87 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 4: He was so you know, respectful of all the women 88 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 4: on his season. And then we also had the contestants 89 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 4: who were embracing not only TikTok but Instagram and really 90 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 4: bringing those audiences in. And then I also think it 91 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 4: was it was a big reason that it really took 92 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 4: off was that fact that Daisy got that first one 93 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 4: on one date. It was a really strong storyline that 94 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 4: made people fall in love with her. And then seeing 95 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 4: how Joey also handled the fact that she got the 96 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 4: helicopter date, the festival and then a concert, which were 97 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 4: all very loud things. 98 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 3: I forgot about, Oh my god. 99 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, and then seeing how Joey handled that conversation just 100 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 4: made people fall in love with his season, and then 101 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 4: starting to really fall in love with all the contestants. 102 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 4: I think it was just a perfect storm season that 103 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 4: everything went perfect and so many people were back from Golden. 104 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so interesting, the golden element of it. I 105 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 2: didn't even think about that. 106 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, that makes sense. Do you think there is something too, 107 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think there has to be, But I 108 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: always feel like people are more engaged in a season, 109 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: especially the beginning of a season, when they choose a 110 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: lead who's in the top three who's like, because like 111 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: sometimes when they do, like like Grant for instance, he 112 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: was like, you know, I think he was like six 113 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: or seven. 114 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a. 115 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: Few leads that haven't made it to hometowns. I mean, 116 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 2: Katie Thurston didn't make it to hometowns. Grant didn't make 117 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 2: it to hometowns. I think Hannah Brown's the only one 118 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 2: I can think of that didn't make it to hometowns 119 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: that still ended up with like a massive season. But 120 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 2: I'm sure a lot of that also was timing and 121 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: she was just people loved her. 122 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 4: But you actually remember Hannah's season actually had some pretty 123 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 4: low ratings at the beginning. It was kind of a 124 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 4: slow start before it took off. But yeah, normally most 125 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 4: leads are chosen from final four, and there is a 126 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 4: lot more audience momentum whenever they choose from final four 127 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 4: because just realistically, they're going to get more screen time 128 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 4: when you get to the final four contestants. That screen 129 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 4: time is pretty evenly split between just four people. Instead 130 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 4: of the typical format of each week's episode leading up 131 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 4: to Hometowns is two people get a one on one 132 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 4: date where they get a lot of screen time, and 133 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 4: then the last third of that screen time is split 134 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 4: up between anywhere from five to thirty people. 135 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. 136 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I remember actually Brace Springs and I laughing 137 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 2: because you had posted a screen time graph chart and 138 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 2: she was like it was a few weeks before hometowns 139 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 2: and she was like, you realize that ours time combined 140 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: doesn't even come close to Sarah Trott who went home 141 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: like week two. Yeah, and it's like, I feel like, 142 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 2: you see that it's not uncommon to see like a 143 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 2: storyline from the beginning really take charge of the screen 144 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 2: time because it's it's drama or whatever it may be. 145 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 2: They have like a heartfelt past, and then up until hometowns, 146 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 2: like things don't really even out. 147 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 3: Is that correct? 148 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, And it's really interesting. People haven't seen my page yet. 149 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 4: I track something that we call featured screen time. So 150 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 4: the way that I track it, so it was initially me, 151 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 4: but now I have a team that helps me. The 152 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 4: way that we track this is, let's say there's a 153 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 4: group of women sitting on the couch and two women 154 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 4: are having a conversation back and forth. Let's say they're 155 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 4: arguing about something and they're you know, and then Jesse's 156 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 4: going to come in and be like there's a two 157 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 4: on one day and then we're like, oh, who's it 158 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 4: going to be? Right, the camera is going to go 159 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 4: back and forth between the two women who are arguing 160 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 4: on the screen, right, and there's women around them. Those 161 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 4: women don't get screen time because they're not actually featured 162 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 4: in that moment back and forth. So we literally some 163 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 4: of our screen time segments are literally one second because 164 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 4: it'll be going back and forth between two contestants, but 165 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 4: it's whoever's the focus of that screen time. And the 166 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 4: way that we use this data, it's really interesting to see, 167 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 4: especially before Hometowns, who gets the most screen time of 168 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 4: the season and how far they made it or how 169 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 4: early they were eliminated, and yeah, on Matt season, so 170 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 4: much of the screen time. The big thing too about 171 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 4: Matt Season is that one of those first episodes that 172 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 4: one week was split into two weeks worth of episodes, 173 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 4: so it really like it was like a to be 174 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 4: continued episode, and then the rest of it aired the 175 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 4: following week, and a lot of that screen time went 176 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 4: to Sarah because you know, she was considering leaving the show, 177 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 4: and she was kind of putting heads with a lot 178 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 4: of the women in the house. And then Katie pulled 179 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 4: her and then they talked. You know, there there was 180 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 4: a lot of time focused on that. And what we 181 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 4: typically see most seasons is that pre Hometowns, the person 182 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 4: who gets the most screen time didn't actually make it 183 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 4: to hometowns, and that's because there was some other major 184 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 4: storyline that led to them not making it there. 185 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: If you think you if you went back to let's 186 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: just call it, let's just go back to twenty eighteen 187 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: and you reviewed all those seasons, do you think the 188 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: person with the most screen time ended up with the 189 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: most followers. 190 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 4: No, And it's typically the villain. So somebody who got 191 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 4: like a villain type edit where there was some type 192 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 4: of conflict in the house, they were getting along with 193 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 4: the women, or they had some big fight with the lead. 194 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 4: That's typically the person who gets the most screen time 195 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 4: before hometowns. But then once it gets to hometowns, it 196 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,719 Speaker 4: totally changes. It just goes to the final four contestants 197 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 4: in the final three and then they really take off. 198 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 4: I also do have a data point, by the way, 199 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 4: if we look at women who were chosen to be 200 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 4: the next bachelorette from the Bachelor, the only women who 201 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 4: were chosen who were not who didn't make it to 202 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 4: Hometowns were Katie Thurston Britt If people don't remember, Britt 203 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 4: was chosen to be a co bachelorette with Caitlyn Bristow 204 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 4: and then the men voted the first night on which 205 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 4: woman they wanted to actually be the lead, so brittain horrible. 206 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 2: We actually we did like a recap of that episode 207 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 2: because during the off seasons we did a couple like 208 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 2: episode one rewatches like premiere episodes, and we recapped those 209 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 2: and one of the ones we did was Caitlyn and 210 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 2: Brett and yeah, truly truly nuts. 211 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, and then it was Hannah Brown and then Jen 212 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 4: So those were the ones who were chosen pre Hometowns, 213 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 4: but the rest of them, they were most of them 214 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 4: actually came from Fantasy Suite elimination. So whichever person was 215 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 4: eliminated at the Fantasy Suites, that person typically became the 216 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 4: next bachelorette. And that was also a really nice format too, 217 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,719 Speaker 4: because then at the finale in AFR, they were at 218 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 4: that episode because they were typically shown being eliminated just 219 00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 4: before that, but they were eliminated after the tell all episode, 220 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 4: so they were their net that night to be announced 221 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 4: as the next lead. Wow. 222 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: Okay, so I'm gonna throw out a hypothetical. So let's 223 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: say I'm your you know, college friend or whatever, and 224 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, Susannah, listen, I'm going on going on the 225 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: Bachelor or a bachelorette. From a from a data standpoint, 226 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: what do I want to grow on social media?

And then when everybody 325 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 4: start starts making content about it, it's just going to 326 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 4: propel Joe's name even more. And then on the flip side, 327 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 4: with Brendan and Piper with their whole moment where they 328 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 4: went on the show, they were caught on hot mic 329 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 4: talking about how many followers they'd gain, how much screen 330 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 4: time she would get people talking about her before she 331 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 4: even got there, and stuff like that. You know that 332 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 4: then the audience picked up and was like, Hey, that's 333 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 4: not cool. We are going to ride you guys down 334 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 4: into the ground. And it became this whole social media moment. 335 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 4: I think honestly, throughout all the years, the things that 336 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 4: I have analyzed that I found trends in, I typically 337 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 4: find a reason there, Like there are certain dates that 338 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 4: if you get that date, you're gonna make it to 339 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 4: Final four pretty much, and there are dates that you 340 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 4: get that you're not gonna make it far. And it 341 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 4: makes sense, right, Like, let's save the bigger dates like 342 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 4: the Bachelorette. The men who get the fireworks date, most 343 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 4: of them make it to Final four, and that makes sense, 344 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 4: like those are very expensive dates, right, But on the 345 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 4: Bachelorette's a little different, only Rachel Kirconnell and Giuliano one. 346 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 4: You know, there's a reason behind a lot of the 347 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 4: trends that we end up finding that makes sense. And 348 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 4: then other things like villains pre twenty twenty, they used 349 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 4: to gain tons of followers, like Demi Dimmy Burnette, she 350 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 4: gained tons of followers, and most people forget this. On 351 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 4: The Bachelor, she got a villain edit, like the women 352 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 4: were really not liking her in the house. She's now 353 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 4: gotten since better edit because of Bachelor Paradise and other shows, 354 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 4: but we don't see that as much anymore. Villains now 355 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 4: it's a very different world post twenty twenty, especially with 356 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 4: social media and how critical we're being of contestants who 357 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 4: not me, but just like the audience are being of 358 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 4: people who get specific edits. The one that's really interesting 359 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 4: to me is the first impression Rose on The Bachelor 360 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 4: versus The Bachelorette. That one is just that was one 361 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 4: of the first trends that people found before even my 362 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 4: account was. On The Bachelor, when the guy is the lead, 363 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 4: it is like the kiss of death to get the 364 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 4: first impressions, which is so funny to watch all the 365 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,719 Speaker 4: women night one be so disappointed that they're not going 366 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 4: to get it, because up until Grant's season, if you 367 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 4: got the first impression Rows, not only were your odds 368 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 4: of make it to Final four pretty low, but your 369 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 4: odds of getting a one on one date we're pretty 370 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 4: much like zero because most of them wouldn't get one. 371 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 4: And then they changed it for Grant season that the 372 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 4: woman who got the first impressure Rows would get the 373 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 4: first one on one date. But on the flip side, 374 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 4: on the Bachelorette, nearly fifty percent of men who get 375 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 4: the first impression Rose win the show. 376 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: Wow. 377 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 3: Women's intuition it is so powerful. 378 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 1: Do you think that anything that you have put out 379 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: there in the world as far as data, the show 380 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,719 Speaker 1: has picked up on and switched some things up, like, 381 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: for instance, the person getting the first one on one 382 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 1: also now all of a sudden gets the first date. 383 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 4: The first impression rose. Yeah, I do think that they 384 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 4: probably changed the one. I don't know if it was 385 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 4: my account because that had been i thing people picked 386 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 4: up on before my account, But it does make sense. 387 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 4: I mean, look at the corporate world, right the people 388 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 4: who work and excel, the data analysts, the people who 389 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 4: do this type of work. We are the ones who 390 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 4: drive decision making at companies. Like you don't make a 391 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 4: decision at a company based off of your gut, you 392 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 4: make it based off of data. So using this type 393 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,880 Speaker 4: of data to be able to drive decision making, I mean, 394 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 4: it makes sense, and I'm always happy to share that 395 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 4: data with anybody who needs it. But one other really 396 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 4: interesting stat that you can you can kind of put 397 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 4: tune two together is like Bachelor in Paradise, the first 398 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 4: date of the season they rarely work out. Out of 399 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 4: all the seasons of Bachelor in Paradise, only twenty two 400 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 4: percent of them are technically considered successful. But season two, 401 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 4: the first date went to Ashley and Jared, and technically 402 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 4: they didn't get together until years later, after yet another 403 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 4: season of Paradise. So it's if you don't want to 404 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 4: count that one, it's even less. 405 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 2: And our season was Avigailnoah was the first one on 406 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 2: one day of the season, and I mean, obviously they're 407 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 2: happily married now, but they did break up at the 408 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 2: end of the show. 409 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, and again, like again, you could pull that one out. 410 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 4: There's so many people who like to be like, well, 411 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 4: that person doesn't count because you know, Ari changed his 412 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 4: mind and Becco was technically the winner, or people want 413 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 4: to be like, well, technically Becca wasn't the winner. So 414 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 4: people like to look at it different ways. But like 415 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 4: basheline Paradise for example, that makes sense, Like it's the 416 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 4: beginning of the season. You know, you had clar and Graham, 417 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 4: you had Jubilee and Jared. Also, Jared is the only 418 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 4: contestant to ever go on Paradise and get that first 419 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 4: date twice, by the way, and like Tia and Chris, 420 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 4: Tia got the first one on one day and she 421 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,199 Speaker 4: invited Chris, but she was like, really, hung up on 422 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 4: Colton and like, possibly. 423 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 3: Were on I was there. 424 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: I was there for that. 425 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, there's and it makes sense right. So there 426 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 4: are a lot of these data points. A lot of 427 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 4: people will be sitting at home and be like, well, 428 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 4: my gut tells me this, but and I'm the count 429 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 4: there that's like, yes, your gut is right, this is 430 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 4: the data behind it. 431 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 2: Is there a piece of data or a few pieces 432 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 2: of data that have been the most shocking to you 433 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 2: or anything that you were like wow, like I thought 434 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 2: it was this and now looking at the data, it 435 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 2: actually proves something different. 436 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think. But again, all of them, it's like 437 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 4: my gut was there. Like the age gaps, for example, 438 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 4: on the Bachelor versus the Bachelorette, between the lead and 439 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 4: the winner, the average age gap on the Bachelor is 440 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 4: six years, whereas the Bachelorette, when the woman is the 441 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 4: lead and she's choosing a man, the average age gap 442 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 4: is that he's a year older. It's one year versus 443 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 4: six years, and on the Bachelor they're typically choosing women 444 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 4: who are six years younger than them. 445 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 446 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 4: I think that was the one that really shocked me. 447 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 2: Then that was my age gap when I was on 448 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: The Bachelor, he was six years older than me. 449 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, what about how about for people who does better 450 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: after the show? Couples or like people that leave heartbroken 451 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 1: because I feel like the heartbroke for oh yeah, for Paradise. 452 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: Let's do Paradise. 453 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, Paradise has an insane success rate, like 454 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 4: absolutely insane. It is the show that's going to just 455 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 4: push out the most couples because also statistic on the 456 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 4: Bachelor of the Bachelorette, the maximum number of couples that 457 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 4: you can get is one because there's just one of 458 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 4: that gender. But Bachelor in Paradise it's pretty much fifty 459 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 4: to fifty, so you have a lot of potential couple pairings. 460 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 4: I do think, especially in recent years, we've seen a 461 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 4: lot of contestants that leave, like Becca and Thomas, Abigail 462 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 4: and Noah because they're not ready to commit at that point, 463 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 4: but then they keep dating and then they end up 464 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,719 Speaker 4: you know, rekindling later. You know. I think I definitely 465 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 4: think the ending of Paradise to be able to like, well, 466 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 4: if you guys want to continue on fast this point, 467 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 4: you got to get engaged, and it's you know, it 468 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 4: is tough for a lot of couples to people to 469 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 4: make that decision. But it's just it's such a wildly 470 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 4: successful show data whise that even if you leave it, 471 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 4: like Kaylin and Dean, like they left part way through 472 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 4: the season, right and now they're married. 473 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 2: In aspect, yeah, and they both have big social media followings. Yeah, 474 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 2: I mean they're also great on social But do you see, like, 475 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 2: if something crazy happens on the show, like let's go back, 476 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 2: I asked to Piper and Brendan right like, there was 477 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 2: a lot of talk around that, and I remember you 478 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 2: creating a lot of posts around that if a crazy 479 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 2: incident happens on the show, do you see your own 480 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 2: social media growth happen as well? 481 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 4: Absolutely? And that was the craziest moment during Brendan and Piper. 482 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:25,439 Speaker 4: I gained in twenty four hours fourteen thousand followers just 483 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 4: covering that. And it was so funny too, because I 484 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 4: have the most imported partner. He went out to go 485 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 4: get me balloons because I had hit like I think 486 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 4: it was like seventy thousand followers, and he went out 487 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 4: to go surprise me to get them. I had no 488 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 4: idea where he was going, and I honestly didn't even 489 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 4: notice him leaving the house because I was just like 490 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 4: on my phone, like creating content here because it is 491 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 4: like so my data too, especially with social media growth 492 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 4: during that time. If people didn't watch that season, Brennan 493 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 4: and Piper had kind of been seeing each other before 494 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 4: the season started to air, and Brennan was seeing Natasha 495 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 4: until Piper got there. And basically what happened in this 496 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,880 Speaker 4: moment got caught in the hot mic were called out 497 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 4: on the beach, et cetera. Is that social media momentum 498 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 4: picked up and everybody was on this. I was not 499 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 4: calling for it, but a lot of people were making 500 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 4: content on unfollow Brendan and Piper and they were losing 501 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 4: thousands by the every few. 502 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 3: Minutes and Natasha was gaining. 503 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 4: Natasha was the opposite way. And actually my video popped 504 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 4: off because at this time, Loki was airing on Disney 505 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 4: Plus and that was a really popular show. I was 506 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 4: obsessed with it, so I took the theme song for 507 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 4: that and was like showing the chart changing over time. 508 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 4: It was so fun to cover that just data wise, 509 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 4: like it's really exciting when something like that happens. And 510 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 4: then my videos were blowing up as well, and I 511 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 4: also saw that like during Matt James season with the 512 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 4: controversies that happened there that blew up my account. But 513 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 4: it was really funny. My partner he went out to 514 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 4: go get the balloons and before he went back, I 515 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 4: passed seventy thousand and we got home. I was already 516 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 4: at seventy five thousand, and they were like the balloons 517 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 4: were wrong at that point to. 518 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 3: The thought that count. 519 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 4: It was pretty cool. But yeah, these whenever you see 520 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 4: these big moments that happened on the show, positive negative, 521 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 4: whatever they are, whenever they go viral, US content creators 522 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,239 Speaker 4: also see them whenever we cover it. 523 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to assume based off of your father telling you, 524 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: you know, you should cover something that you enjoy, that 525 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: you enjoyed watching reality TV. Yeah, doing what you do now, 526 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: does that take away some of the enjoyment when you watch? 527 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, like when you're tracking or you ever like I'm 528 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 3: tired of this. 529 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 2: Grandpa, Like I don't want to track follower kiults today. 530 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 531 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 4: Well, I have an amazing person on my team that 532 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 4: takes the screen time data, and that's what it was 533 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 4: like during So I've had people help me on and off. 534 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 4: So Back when I first started tracking screen time, it 535 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 4: was really hard on me because I was working as 536 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 4: a technology director. I ever saw a team of forty people. 537 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 4: It was a big school district, especially like this was 538 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,360 Speaker 4: coming out of COVID. We were working on a big 539 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 4: project in our district, migrating our student information system. Like, 540 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 4: my life was really busy, and I'd basically work like 541 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 4: ten hours at my day job and then come home 542 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 4: and then then I would work on bachelor data. So 543 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 4: I've had amazing people have helped me along the way 544 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 4: with the screen time collection, but the times that I 545 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 4: took that on to do myself, it really it did 546 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 4: take away from it. It was like a four hour 547 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,199 Speaker 4: job early on for me to do because it's an 548 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 4: Excel spreadsheet and it's a lot of stops start rewinding. Yeah, 549 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 4: And I know a lot of people have approached me 550 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 4: like why don't you just like machine learning like train 551 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 4: a thing, And it's like, well, this takes the human 552 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 4: element of figuring out like who, Like you have to 553 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 4: really discern who is the focus of this moment that 554 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 4: the audience is going to be focusing on, and then 555 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 4: how do we split it if it's really multiple people 556 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 4: in this moment or do we just do one second 557 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 4: every time it changes. It does take that human element 558 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 4: and that really did drain me for a while. I 559 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 4: will say it is tougher on seasons where I know 560 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,360 Speaker 4: the spoiler and I'm not excited about who wins. That 561 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 4: kind of impacts it. I do. I always look forward 562 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 4: some day to be able to like watch a season 563 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 4: and not be spoiled. But it's really hard to as 564 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 4: a content creator for this show because so many people 565 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 4: will even like on my Instagram account. I haven't said 566 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 4: that the only people who can comment are people who 567 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 4: follow my page, because like, it does get pretty bad 568 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 4: with people just commenting spoilers. But I do really want 569 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 4: to watch the season someday without knowing the spoilers because 570 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 4: I do think that will change it. But I will 571 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 4: stay on the flip side. Sometimes I know the spoiler, 572 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 4: like Daisy, Daisy, Joey, Kelsey, Like that whole season I 573 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 4: knew Daisy Joey or Daisy and Kelsey were final too, 574 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 4: and based on their social media presence, I was like, 575 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 4: this is going to be an awesome season. Like I 576 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 4: got so much more excited for it. But I've had 577 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 4: my moments I think twenty twenty three was a tough year, 578 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 4: but also because I was seeing the data and like 579 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 4: social media growth was low, so I wasn't having a 580 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 4: lot of fun analyzing it. And every week it was like, 581 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 4: oh wow, the most growth we saw this week was 582 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 4: like eight hundred followers, and like back in the day, 583 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 4: we used to see like you know, like Joe, you 584 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 4: gain ten thousand followers overnight, Like, yeah, it does. 585 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: That's got to be much more thrilling to like watch. 586 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 3: Like you want to see anomalies. 587 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 2: You want to see like highs and lows and like 588 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 2: big changes, I guess, versus like the creepy Crawley of 589 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 2: it all. But what do you think about them not 590 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:20,400 Speaker 2: doing the Bacherette this year? 591 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 4: Listen, I get it. I get it from the business perspective, right, 592 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 4: Like last last year was tough. There were you know, 593 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 4: we had Golden Bachelorette, we had gen season. You know, 594 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 4: we all saw what happened with certain people getting cast 595 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 4: on the show. You know, ratings have been tough the 596 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 4: last two seasons, so it makes sense for them to 597 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 4: kind of regroup. Let's figure out casting. How to make this, 598 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 4: you know, how to really get casting right, especially because 599 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 4: we saw casting get right for Joey season and we 600 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 4: saw how perfect and amazing of a season it was. 601 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 4: And it also makes me excited because it means that 602 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 4: there's more budget now that they can put into Bachelor 603 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 4: and Paradise, which is personally, I've always much more enjoyed 604 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 4: Bachelor of Paradise than the other shows. Like I do 605 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 4: love the other shows, but I love Paradise because it's 606 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 4: you get so many more potential couples from there, and 607 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 4: it's really exciting because so many ended up moving on 608 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 4: and getting married and having kids, and now we have 609 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 4: lots of Paradise babies and stuff. So I think it 610 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 4: makes sense from the business perspective. Personally, I miss it, 611 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 4: Like I would have loved to see a Bachelorette season 612 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 4: even if they had brought in, you know, there were 613 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 4: rumors that they were possibly going to bring on Victoria 614 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 4: f from Peter season. She would be so good man 615 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 4: that mess. It would have been so fun to cover 616 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 4: that season, like the way that that she just generated 617 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 4: so much fun mess back then, Like I would have 618 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 4: really enjoyed that, you know. 619 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 2: And I also think I mean, like there's obviously exceptions 620 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 2: on either side of this, but she's been on The Bachelor, 621 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 2: she went far, she went all the way to Fantasy Sweet, 622 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 2: she's been on Paradise. I do think there's something to 623 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 2: be said for a lead that has experience being on 624 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 2: the show and like their ability to kind of bring 625 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 2: more to the position just because they've been on once 626 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 2: and went far or twice, you know, like Coulton. 627 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 3: I think. 628 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I personally think if you bring if the 629 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: show and we were running out of time so we 630 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: got to wrap, But if the show brought Victoria Fuller 631 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: is the next Bachelorette, I think it would be the 632 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: biggest season they would have, maybe maybe ever, because I 633 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: think every I feel like ninety Bachelor Nation fans would 634 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: watch the season, and then you would get so many 635 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: new people as well. I think it would be great. 636 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 3: That's what I would do if I throw it out 637 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 3: of his own stats. 638 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, just I'll just make a shit up here.
