Speaker 1: a good amount of sleep this week as well. It's

18
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:04,360

Speaker 1: it as almost like uh an encouragement to us. Yeah,

21
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: people are upset, but you know what, we decided it

22
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 1: since it was July four, which is a massive weekend

23
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: here on the lake for me in Indiana, and then

24
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: Ashley was celebrating it with who um, Jared just went

25
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: home Fourth July. I wish we had more traditions in Virginia,

26
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: but we don't. But we went to our friends for

27
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: barbecue and we've watched fireworks pretty pretty common standard. Yeah,

28
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 1: but it's a big week for me. So the funny

29
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 1: part about and nobody gets this. And Jessica came back

30
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: to win the Lake for the very first time last week,

31
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: very first time. Okay, she's been a devor so much.

32
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: I know, well, but I'm not home very often, like

33
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: to my hometown. But the fourth of July in Indiana

34
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: or especially in the lake here in Wine the lake

35
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: has a lot more tradition than any other holiday. Like

36
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: it's a big deal that the parade that I want

37
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: that uh they call it the hood parade. Um, the

38
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: fire trucks come out and then everybody in the lake

39
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 1: does fireworks. And one of the traditions that I have

40
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: is my mom and I every year we go out

41
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: and we buy a ton of fireworks and we light

42
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: them off together. Um here on the lake on the

43
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: fourth of July. So it's a big week. We took

44
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: it off. We apologize, but we didn't miss a ton.

45
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: I mean, this is really the big week that we

46
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: need to start diving in. Any Well, last week we

47
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: missed that promo did the windmill, So we missed a

48
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: lot in the teaser, but we didn't miss a ton

49
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: in that episode. But we can always talk about the

50
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: windmill later in this episode. Um, you know it's it's

51
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: referring to next week's episode anyway, So I mean we're

52
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: going to really dive into it next week. Ben, I

53
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: want to tell you why this week was a big

54
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:56,119
Speaker 1: deal for me. Why why is it? Um? Last week,

55
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 1: I guess. I mean it was the last time I

56
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: hung out with my dad before our wedding week. And

57
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: it was the last time I slept in my childhood

58
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: room as an unmarried woman. Oh yeah, like there was

59
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: the last time I slept in my bed at home

60
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: alone because my parents are My dad specifically doesn't didn't

61
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 1: allow Jared I to sleep in the same bed together.

62
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 1: That makes sense. That's that completely makes sense. I get

63
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,119
Speaker 1: what he's doing, and he should. That's a good. Isn't

64
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,679
Speaker 1: that crazy? But it was like, this is the last

65
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 1: time I'm waking up with my bed alone at home.

66
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: How does it? I mean, what did the emotions running

67
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: through your head? It's just like so surreal, It's just

68
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: so crazy. It's very nostalgic and like it just I

69
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: don't know, does it feel like you're into what's the okay? Actually,

70
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: let's talk about the transition, Like what does this transition

71
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: feel like? Do you feel like you're forming turning into

72
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: something new, different, or what's the feelings? I think that

73
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: like as a kid and as a teenager, you're always

74
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: thinking like, oh, when I'm married and stuff, I'm gonna

75
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: be a real adult, and like what's going to happen

76
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: with my relationship with my family? Is it going to

77
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: be any different? But what I really love is that

78
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: Jared just fits in and it just feels like there's

79
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: five of us now instead of four of us, and

80
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: it still feels like there were the kids. We still

81
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 1: go like in the kid car and stuff like that

82
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: we're driving separately. I like the way it doesn't feel

83
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,600
Speaker 1: like much is changing, just that we're adding a new

84
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 1: family member who feels like my sister's brother, and my mom,

85
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 1: even before Jared and I were ever together, said to

86
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: my dad, this is like a year before Jared and

87
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 1: I got together. She was like, could you really imagine

88
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: any other guy other than Jared being our son in law?

89
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's just it does now? Is this the

90
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: the now that it's happening? Is this the vision that

91
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: you had for your your your mayor, and your your

92
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: future was that it would fit like does feel like

93
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: he is a son to them and that that he

94
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 1: is a brother to your sister, which is weird because

95
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: it lovest to me he's a brother, But I get

96
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: the context you're saying in this is this how you

97
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: would want it? Like? Is this is this good? I

98
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: think this is definitely how I wanted it to be

99
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: when I got older, Like in my mid to late twenties,

100
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: I always wanted to be like this. I always wanted

101
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 1: to feel like my sister's brother and for him to

102
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: just fit in. I think when you're younger, you have

103
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: like this totally different idea of what marriage and creating

104
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: your own family is. You think if it's more of

105
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: like like you're going to take another step instead of

106
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,239
Speaker 1: like growing what you already have. But I love growing

107
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: what we already have. Such an important message right there

108
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 1: that I wonder how people feel, is you know, is

109
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: marriage taking a new step or is it growing what

110
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: you already have? Uh? That's that that's a huge, a

111
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 1: huge Uh. There's a dichotomy between the two of those

112
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: that we maybe can't fully process. But there that is

113
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: a massive moment for you to either take a new

114
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: step forward and I know some people have to do that,

115
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: right maybe their family is no longer around, or maybe

116
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 1: it's not a healthy family dynamic. But then also you

117
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,119
Speaker 1: have that dynamic that you're walking into where it's healthy

118
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: and people around, and you're just saying, this is just

119
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: something new, it's adding on to what's already been there.

120
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: Oh that's cool. Thanks for sharing that. That's a really

121
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: cool moment for you guys in a really amazing week

122
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: that Ashley Canetti uh soon to no longer be I

123
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: Canettie stayed in her house for the last time as

124
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 1: a nonmarried woman. Ashley, you've you've been formed in front

125
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: of us over these last two years, and that everybody

126
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 1: out there saying has been able to be a part

127
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: of it. Thank you, Ben, You're sweet? All right? Should

128
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: we jump into the episode. Well, yeah, I think we

129
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: should transition this way. I think we should say, is

130
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: Ashley no longer is a single woman living in her house?

131
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: It's very uh, it could be very possible that this

132
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: week Hannah comes home to her future husband's house. Time

133
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: look at that? What and a wild, wild relationship that

134
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: we have Ashley. Before we get digging in here to

135
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: Hannah's week going to the hometowns, I would love for

136
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: you to tell all of our listeners about this, help

137
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: the sponsors to help put this on. And third love

138
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: is one that I know you love. Okay, wait, wait,

139
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: can we talk about how last time I was with you,

140
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: you actually called Jess and asked about her bras's eyes. Well,

141
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: I seriously overheard this conversation because he was because Ben

142
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: was getting his third love bra for Jess. Yeah, that

143
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: was kind of fun. Well, they are amazing. I'm sure

144
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: she's gotten hers and loves it. I love mine. It

145
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: is like the perfect It's just it's just a perfect bra.

146
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 1: It makes my girls look perky and high and well supported.

147
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: And it doesn't include like a ton it doesn't have

148
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: like a ton of petting, but it does the job

149
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: the way you wanted to do. It's because Third Love

150
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,840

151

152
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:05,480

Speaker 1: including their signature half cup sizes. I'm not going to

156
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: go into detail with you, Ben, I don't want to

157
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: like reveal, just as like personal business like this, but

158
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: I wonder if she's a half cup size because I'm

159
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: a half cup size in Third Love and it's really

160
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: changed to the broad game for me. You get to

161
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: skip the trip to the mall and find your fit

162
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: with Third loves online fit finder quiz. You order online

163
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: and you try it on at home. No more awkward

164
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: fitting room experiences. It is very weird to have the

165
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: shop for such an intimate item and have people like

166
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,319
Speaker 1: wanting to measure you. You just don't like. I never

167
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: I've never been measured in the store. I'm like, nes,

168
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: thank you, I will keep trying on myself. Um, there's

169
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 1: a one hundred percent fit guarantee because every customer has

170
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,839
Speaker 1: sixty days to where it wash it and put the

171
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: brad to the test, and if you don't love it,

172
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: you can just return it and Third Love will wash

173
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,719
Speaker 1: it and donate it to a woman in need. I

174
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: know I've mentioned this on the podcast before, but it's

175
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: really crazy how a lot of donation companies they don't

176
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: take bras. They just don't accept bras. So I'm really

177
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: glad that Third Love is finding a way to get

178
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: bras to women in need. Um Third loves fit finder

203
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 1: Adding these products to our wedding registry with Cretan Barrel

204
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: was super easy and fun to pick out because you

205
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 1: know you are in the store and you just scan

206
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 1: it right on your phone. Or if you'd forget to

207
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: register for betting, or you want to figure out which kind,

208
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: you need extra time to think about what you want

209
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: to choose. Jared, I just got our flannels, which you

210
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: know we're going to say for colder season, but you

211
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: get to go back and add those things on the

212
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: app as well. So you don't have to register for

213
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 1: everything in the store. You can think about some things.

214
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: I really like that about the Cretan Barrel app and

215
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,920

224
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: week off, this week was a big week for us

225
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: to discuss. We knew this would be one of the

226
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: weeks that we help or hopefully discover we're Hannah's at

227
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: in these relationships, and I want to start this whole

228
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: thing actley before we break down. I think date by date,

229
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: hometown by hometown is walking into this week after last

230
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: week because we didn't get to discuss it with the

231
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,559
Speaker 1: listeners and our friends last week. What was your expectations,

232
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: what were you excited about and kind of what were

233
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: your takeaways from last week leading into Hometowns? Okay, Well,

234
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: based on the preview that we were given last week,

235
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:38,079
Speaker 1: we if we've really dissected it, we could see that

236
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: every guy made it to hometown to fantasy suites. Good,

237
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,439
Speaker 1: good point. So I think what I was most interested

238
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: in was seeing why she was so torn and so

239
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: indecisive that she couldn't eliminate someone during hometowns, meaning that

240
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: she liked everyone's hometowns or liked every guy enough to

241
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 1: bring them along. Um. And I guess this week to

242
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:10,079
Speaker 1: me was Luke's best week, most likable week, and it

243
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: created and it made Jed somebody who we maybe don't

244
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: know if Hannah's going to enjoy family time was in

245
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: the future. Yeah, that's a good point. And I think

246
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,319
Speaker 1: that's the big takeaway from last week. As we watched

247
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 1: last week's episode and we saw the promo, we knew

248
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 1: that something probably not very dramatic, was going to happen

249
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: this week. This week was really kind of the filler.

250
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: It's important to meet the families. And I think, as

251
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,079
Speaker 1: actually and I spoke last week about the episode, the

252
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,839
Speaker 1: one thing that we were just excited about was just

253
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 1: continue to see when and how the Loop P Hannah

254
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 1: dynamic was gonna play out, and we got to see

255
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: that this week. But before we dive into Loop P,

256
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: actually I want to start with the very first hometown

257
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:01,599
Speaker 1: that we sawgical order. I think that would be the

258
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: best way, and our very first hometown was with pilot Pete.

259
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: Pete lives in west Lake. Can we talk about how

260
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: that was totally the episode, the part of the episode

261
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 1: that was taped last, because Pete lives in I mean,

262
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 1: I'm just guessing here, but but let's it's an educated guest.

263
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: Because Pete lives in Westlake Village, California, which is legitimately

264
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: not even ten minutes away from the Bachelor mansion. Hannah's

265
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: hotel is in Westlake, California. So I just figured that

266
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: was the day before the rose ceremony, which is possibly

267
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: why she gave him the rose first. She was like,

268
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: I had so much fun there, that was easy, Breezy,

269
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: I'm giving him this rose fresh in her mind. You

270
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: couldn't you. I mean, honestly, that's a lot how this

271
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 1: happens oftentimes. The other part, though, it could be that

272
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: maybe he was the first because they flew back into

273
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: l a and before she took off again. Just one

274
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: of the film's first it definitely, but either way, he

275
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: pulls up here. Actually, this is where I get a

276
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: little bit Enviously, I'm gonna I'm gonna say that my

277
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: main feeling and I'll explain why as we continue through

278
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 1: this episode was envy and jealousy. I'll explain as we go.

279
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: But my first moment of envy was he pulls up

280
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: in a little sexy Mercedes. Not what we picture Peter in,

281
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: but he pulls up in a Mercedes and he calls

282
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: it his girl or something. And you know what I drive.

283
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 1: We've talked about before two Ford Escape, Like this thing

284
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: has been my high school car. If I pulled up

285
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: to pick up my date in this car. The last

286
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: thing they're saying is that car is sexy. But Peter,

287
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: he not only has a nice car, he also flies

288
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: a plane. Actually, at this point, what are your thoughts

289
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: on Peter? Peter is like he used to be that

290
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: boy scout and now he's kind of the stud. Does

291
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: a stud have to a nice car? No, not at all,

292
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 1: but it's like adds an alert to him. Sure it helps.

293
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: I'm like Delta is good to that guy. Delta him

294
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: really good to him, and he seems to know how

295
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: to drive it. The other thing he seems to know

296
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 1: how to do is make things a little awkward. And

297
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: one of the big moments of this week that I

298
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: didn't think would even be a big moment, but surprise, surprise,

299
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: Peters had sex and we've seen him be very physical

300
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: with Hannah throughout the season. We talked about it two

301
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: weeks ago where it's crazy that we still view Peters

302
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: kind of the innocent, non edgy guy, yet we've seen

303
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 1: the most edge out of him throughout the season. And

304
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: Hannah finds a condom in his car? Is that awkward?

305
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: Is that funny? Actually? What is your take? I think

306
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: it's funny. They were like they obviously handled it. Well,

307
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: he's an adult and at least he's safe, right, I

308
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: don't know it was funny that she was snooping through

309
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 1: the center console because, like you just find out, you

310
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,440
Speaker 1: actually can find out so many things about somebody through

311
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 1: what's in their center consoles. Through the console there for years, right, Yeah,

312
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 1: my center console has like the most outdated CDs in them.

313
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: Things from ten years ago are in there. They still

314
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: do your car have a CD player? Yeah? So yeah,

315
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,360
Speaker 1: mine does. Do I still have a CD in my players? To? Oh?

316
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: I have them? Like I have Taylor Swift albums that

317
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:40,159
Speaker 1: I'm like, actually a little o C D and uh,

318
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: I'm just like a little bit superstitious about the order

319
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: that they're in and that they that they stay in

320
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 1: that spot. I would I feel a little bit like

321
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,719
Speaker 1: this is a great moment for us to ask our

322
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: listeners what would be the weirdest or I guess what

323
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: would be the most telling thing found in your center

324
00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 1: council of your car? Please email us at been an Ashley.

325
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: I heart media dot com. Let us know what the

326
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: weirdest thing is. No judgment. I'm sure if I looked

327
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: out there now, I could find like multiple odd things

328
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 1: that people be like, I don't get it, this is odd,

329
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: this is weird. I mean you would find stuff literally

330
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 1: since high school in my center council. You would find

331
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 1: a fishing license that's probably I know this perfectly, so

332
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 1: that's seven years um overdue, like it's expired. It It

333
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: literally would be weird. So please emails I've been an

334
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 1: actually I heard media dot com or tweet us and

335
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 1: hashtag almost famous podcasts and let us know what the

336
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 1: weirdest thing in your Center Center council would be. I

337
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 1: don't think it's weird that she found a condom. I

338
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: think it makes sense. Uh, you know, he, like I said, surprise, surprise,

339
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 1: he has had sex. He's at least safe. It's a

340
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 1: funny moment though, and I think it's a little bit

341
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 1: of foreshadowing to what we're gonna see next week, where

342
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,120
Speaker 1: sex is gonna, I would imagine, be the main topic

343
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: to the episode. I think sex will be probably what

344
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: we talked about most on this podcast next week, which

345
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 1: will be fun and exciting and weird and a tad awkward.

346
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 1: But it feels like we're ramping up to really have

347
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 1: those really intense conversations. We see that too. That foreshadowing

348
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,159
Speaker 1: again with Luke at the school, the Sunday school or

349
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: just like what would that be like that's not Sunday school.

350
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: Is a weird way of saying that, right, Yeah, small

351
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 1: group Sunday school or something like that. Okay, Well, we

352
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: see him talking about sex there, and I just think

353
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 1: that was so obviously a foreshadowing that's what we're going

354
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 1: to talk about next week. It really is he's setting

355
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: himself up for a massive implosion, but before we get

356
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 1: the Luke. Actually, my takeaway from Peter's hometown is that

357
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: his family seems really great. It's it's kind of like

358
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: it almost feels like my family, or at least it

359
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: reminded me of my family in the sense of my

360
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: parents were close, we love each other, but like they're weird.

361
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: We're we're weird, Like I know that there's things that

362
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: happen when we're together that people on the outside probably

363
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: are like, this doesn't make sense, Like your dad is

364
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 1: cracking jokes that like never completely finished, and you know,

365
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 1: like they bicker over the smallest of like house housing projects,

366
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: but yet at the end of the night, they're always

367
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: cuddling up on the couch, like ultimately very affectionate with

368
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: each other. This is a weird family. It feels like

369
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: that for Peter's family. I really like Peter's family. Yeah,

370
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: they're like the family that you most would want to

371
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: hang out with. They're just super warm. I loved how

372
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: emotional they were. I love that he brought up He

373
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,399
Speaker 1: got so teary when he brought up his grandparents and

374
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,119
Speaker 1: then his dad, Like, how do you explain the emotional

375
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: breakdown that his dadad. You think he's just like the

376
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: most hopeless romantic man. Yeah. Well, also, I mean and

377
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 1: and this this podcast. I'm gonna warn you now and

378
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: if you don't want to listen to it anymore, you

379
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: can turn it off from here. But this is gonna

380
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: there's a lot of very personal reflections that I've done

381
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 1: through watching this episode and reminding me of my time

382
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: on The Bachelor. Actually, so I'm gonna continue to pull

383
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: back to my own experiences and loves at Okay, I

384
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: just want to make sure that everybody's clear that the

385
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 1: way I related with this episode was how I related.

386
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,640
Speaker 1: But my dad broke down a couple of times during

387
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 1: my season. He broke down on after the final Rows,

388
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 1: he broke oh yeah, he broke down during when I,

389
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 1: when I showed when they showed up to Jamaica. My

390
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 1: dad's very emotional. And it's weird. You gotta think about

391
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 1: this actually, and we forget this piece, and I think

392
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 1: it's good for us to talk about now. Is all

393
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: of a sudden, your son or your daughter goes on

394
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:29,880
Speaker 1: a show and they're gone for two and a half months.

395
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 1: You haven't talked to him and they show up and

396
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: all you want for them is for them to be

397
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 1: filled with happiness, and now they are. You've missed us

398
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 1: out on a large portion of their life, and now

399
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: they're telling you they're falling in love and they're telling

400
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 1: you all about these amazing experiences they have, and you're

401
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: sitting there trying to take all this in As a parent,

402
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 1: I think it's very easy to break down, especially if

403
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 1: you have that like sensitive like side. Do you m

404
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,879
Speaker 1: it tough? And he has a mustache, so we just

405
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 1: gotta like him for that. He is a very cute dad.

406
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: I really, I really liked that that whole segment of

407
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 1: the episode. I felt like it was super easy to watch.

408
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: I think Hannah just had a great time and um,

409
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 1: I don't know a lot much more to say about that. Well,

410
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 1: the last question before I fill on Peters is our

411
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 1: synopsis that we've talked about is this The hometown date

412
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: was great. It felt like the one that was the

413
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: most loving and the most accepting and the most Jory filled.

414
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: I think throughout this whole episode, I also think it's

415
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 1: the one that was carrying. It felt like kind of

416
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: the most progress from start to finish. I want to

417
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 1: say this though, you know. One big moment that we

418
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 1: we can't skip over is that Peter tells his mom

419
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: that he's falling hard and he's falling in love for Hannah,

420
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: but he has yet to tell her. Ashley, what is

421
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: your opinion? Is this the week or is this the

422
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 1: time that it feels right? It feels almost weird for

423
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 1: me to even ask you, like, is this the week

424
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: to tell her that he loves her? Because it feels

425
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 1: like there's like a time to it or a pressure

426
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 1: on it. But we do. If he's feeling this way

427
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 1: and he's telling his mom this, would you expect him

428
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: to also tell Hannah yet? Or should he wait? I

429
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 1: think per norm they usually tell the bachelor of the

430
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: bachelorette the TV he's shaking, Do you have another earth quake?

431
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: If you guys don't know. We record these episodes in

432
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 1: Los Angeles and a lot of earthquakes recently. I think

433
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: everybody's a little on edge, and when the next one's

434
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 1: getting hit, actually you're like shaking your leg and like

435
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: the TV was shaking with you, or maybe that was

436
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: your screen. That was your screen and I was seeing

437
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 1: an illusion. Everybody's on edge in Los Angeles. Okay, So, um,

438
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: I think normally this is the week that they end

439
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 1: up saying like, I'm falling in love with your, arm

440
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: in love with you. We always talked about the difference

441
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: between those two. Um, I feel like I would rather

442
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 1: them wait to fantasy sweet week, don't I Just I

443
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 1: like it when they take their time with it. I

444
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 1: think so too, I I really do. I agree with

445
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: you completely. It feels like if you have this feeling

446
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: that you want to tell her, and I get that

447
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: people are feeling this at this point, then you need

448
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: to wait to the appropriate moment, and doing it at

449
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,239
Speaker 1: hometowns doesn't seem like that moment because you don't get

450
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: a lot of one on one time and there's not

451
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: a lot of follow up to discuss, you know, the

452
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 1: the just the backstory. And so I think, uh, the

453
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: overnight section is the one that really makes it makes sense, uh,

454
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: And it gives them the most time to one on

455
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 1: one kind of speak about what they're actually feeling. But

456
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: Peter has now said it. We know how Peter is feeling.

457
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: His heart's on his sleeve. His family has now invested,

458
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 1: Peters invested. We like Peter a lot on this podcast.

459
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,359
Speaker 1: We have since the beginning. I still think if he

460
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: doesn't the one chosen he's the next bachelor, it's either

461
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: him or might Really Okay, so I'll play a little

462
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 1: Devil's advocate here, but actually it's not even Devil's advocates,

463
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 1: just how I feel. Um, let's look at the Instagram numbers.

464
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 1: I think that it's so hard to deny the fact

465
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 1: that Tyler has a hundred. Let me see what he's got.

466
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,640
Speaker 1: He had over a hundred. He over had over eight

467
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: hundred thousand yesterday when I checked, and he probably has

468
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: more now. He has eight hundred and thirty eight thousand followers.

469
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: That's how invested women are in him versus Peter, who

470
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: has almost five hundred. And let's see Jed. I mean,

471
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: Jed has obviously, like he's just not a candidate anymore

472
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: after the cheating thing, he has three hundred and fifty thousand,

473
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 1: and then well Luke is obviously also not a candidate.

474
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 1: So yeah, well that's a good point. I mean, it

475
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: typically does seem to follow what the fans are most

476
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 1: invested in. I also think that those numbers are a

477
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,880
Speaker 1: little skewed right now because there's a lot more people

478
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 1: on Instagram than ever before. And so I think the

479
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 1: differentiator between those four is very telling to what fans

480
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: are following. And I think, like you said, Tyler seems

481
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 1: to be the fan favorite it. But the question is

482
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,679
Speaker 1: the show knows more than anybody else, and it's been

483
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: our questional season. Is he ready, which we're gonna get

484
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 1: to know a little bit more on his hometown if

485
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 1: he's ready or not. But before we do that, we

486
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 1: have a couple of sponsors once again that we want

487
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 1: to talk about and think because we appreciate them more

488
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 1: than they probably even appreciate us. We now visit the

489
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,399
Speaker 1: beautiful Jupiter, Florida. Hey, quick fact here my cousin, my

490
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 1: dad's cousin is the town manager of Jupiter Island, Florida.

491
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 1: So I've been on there many times, very familiar, my

492
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: whole families from there, um more mom on my my

493
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: grandpa's side, So I've been a Jupiter bunch. It's a

494
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 1: beautiful area, Ashley. As we talked about before we took

495
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 1: a break, Tyler is definitely the fan favorite and the

496
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: flast four remaining. Uh, he's shirtless driving a boat rubbing

497
00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 1: sunscreen on Hannah and she's rubbing on him. Can we

498
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 1: picture a sexier date? No, it was the ultimate Tyler date.

499
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,440
Speaker 1: It was perfect for Jupiter, It's perfect for Tyler. A

500
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: boat and a tiki bar, followed by his lovely family.

501
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 1: It was just great and like Tyler just keeps winning

502
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 1: this get like in my eyes, like Tyler is the

503
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 1: one that there's just like nothing wrong. There's nothing wrong

504
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 1: right now. I mean, I guess Peter. There's nothing wrong

505
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 1: with Peter either. No, the two of them feel very

506
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: similar and like who they are and how they're interacting

507
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 1: with Hannah and who they are as just men. And

508
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 1: they're both good looking dudes who have it together, who

509
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 1: seem like guys who want to do the best possible

510
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 1: or live life in the best possible way to be

511
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 1: the best possible men. I feel like this episode made

512
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 1: like if you had any doubts about Tyler being a

513
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,159
Speaker 1: player after seeing him with your fit with a family,

514
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: because I feel like everybody has had those those doubts

515
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 1: all season, like how can he be this great and

516
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: be this good looking and lala? But then you see

517
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:00,920
Speaker 1: him with his face, I'm laying you're like, No, I

518
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 1: pretty much think this guy is straight up genuine. Yeah,

519
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 1: I do you know the only thing that I get

520
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 1: And I know this will women everywhere will just be

521
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 1: so mad at me for saying this. This will be great.

522
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 1: I look at his I look at his Instagram, and

523
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 1: I do wonder how much self promotion is going on.

524
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 1: I do that often with these guys. You know, there's

525
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: a lot of modeling pictures, that kind of thing. That's

526
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 1: the only thing that's still making me go, is this guy, Like,

527
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: is he in it to not be about himself? And

528
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:32,239
Speaker 1: I think I started out questioning it a few weeks ago.

529
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: I discussed that, and I am starting to be sold

530
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,239
Speaker 1: that he really is in it for Hannah, that he's

531
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 1: in it to try to find somebody. He just happens

532
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: to be ridiculously good looking. And I think the country

533
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: is starting to turn and say, yeah, he's not a player.

534
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: He hasn't at least shown any signs of it yet,

535
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: and we have. I mean the crazy part is we've

536
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 1: now heard it with both Peter and Jed that they've

537
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 1: maybe had relationships leading up to the show. Yeah, what's

538
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 1: a Peter thing? Can you do you know anything? There's

539
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 1: speculation that he had a girlfriend as well. Yeah, but

540
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 1: they broke up about a month before filming started, which

541
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 1: feels a lot better to me than just leaving with

542
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 1: a girlfriend telling her, hey, when I come back, like,

543
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: this will be all good. So I think that's why

544
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 1: Jed's you know, kind of story continues. But um, we

545
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: haven't heard anything about Tyler. He seems we want escaping

546
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: to the clear, and so let's let's assume Tyler is

547
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 1: not a player. Then we have this really good looking

548
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 1: dude who drives boats around Florida who wasn't a player. Actually,

549
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: are you in the Tyler camp? Oh? Yeah, I mean

550
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 1: Tyler is number one. Really, Tyler's my number one. I

551
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 1: think Tyler is the one that we're all saying, this

552
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: guy's got that in factor, he's got something special. Actually, Tyler,

553
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: everybody on Twitter last night, uh you know it's We've

554
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 1: got a lot of responses on Twitter and then also

555
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 1: through email, but well, everybody on Twitter last night was

556
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 1: saying how emotional these hometown dates made them. And the

557
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 1: emotional piece that I found out that really got people

558
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: going was Tyler's time home seeing his dad for the

559
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: first time. A couple of weeks ago, we heard that

560
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 1: Tyler's dad had been sick right up until Tyler left.

561
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 1: Also that you know, Tyler's dad did it really well

562
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 1: for himself about ten fifteen years ago and then ultimately

563
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 1: lost their their childhood home to the recession. So there's

564
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: a lot of backstory and grit built into Tyler and

565
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: his dad's relationship. And so I think when they saw

566
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,719
Speaker 1: Tyler's dad for the first time, there was a lot

567
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: of emotion there and it reminded me of my story

568
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: that one. I don't know how often we've even talked

569
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 1: about in the podcast, and I almost think I've never

570
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: talked about it during the show. It's kind of crazy.

571
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 1: So I get it you and viewers, I need you

572
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: to understand this. You leave this podcast for Lee, for

573
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: this show, you're gone from months at a time, you

574
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: don't have contact with anybody back home, no phone, no computer,

575
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 1: no internet, no nothing. And so you leave and say,

576
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna kind of put life back home on pause

577
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: for months and go explore love. For so many reasons,

578
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: it's a great thing. It helps you focus, it takes

579
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: a way outside like distractions, but for a lot of reasons,

580
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 1: it's also hard and sad, and there's a lot of

581
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: excitement and anxiety and emotion build up to when you

582
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: talked to your family who you love dearly or friends

583
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: for the first time in a long time. Right before

584
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: my time on The Bachelor, my dad and actually I

585
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: think you knew this. He had triple bypass surgery a

586
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: week and a half before I left for The Bachelor.

587
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: The Bachelor, yeah, so like he was recovering still up

588
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 1: until really the day I left, and then when I

589
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 1: left him, I go on the show and we're traveling

590
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: the world, but really for me, it was, uh, the

591
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 1: North just the North America. Um well, at the same time,

592
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 1: I'm not going to talk to this guy who I

593
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 1: saw on a hospital bed get his chest cracked open.

594
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: It's hard. I have a question. Did they let you

595
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: talk to your parents more often then? Like obviously the

596
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: regular cast can't call home. I actually got to for

597
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 1: like thirty seconds once because my parents thirtieth anniversary maybe yeah,

598
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,959
Speaker 1: I was their anniversary, my dad's oh, my dad's sixtieth birthday,

599
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: so I got to call home for thirty seconds. Did

600
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: you get to call home more often, especially given that

601
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 1: your dad was sick. Yeah, I definitely did. But at

602
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 1: the same time, they're always really weird conversations because you

603
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 1: never get to have them alone, so they're either being

604
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: taped or there's about four people sitting around you. So

605
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: like if you know as my dad, you know it's

606
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: saying these things and as I remember the last I

607
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 1: saw Hi him in the hospital. But like you get emotional,

608
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 1: well then you know what's going to be on TV,

609
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,239
Speaker 1: and do you I guess for me, I don't want

610
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: to use my dad's you know, heart surgery to bring

611
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: in emotion from the fans of the viewers. Like that

612
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: feels like I'm almost playing the victim to my band.

613
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 1: So like I would try to keep it together. Dad,

614
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: how you doing, I'm good, you know, good Dad? Happy

615
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: for you, Like I don't want to dig deep like

616
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: I would if we were together. And so I think

617
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: this is a really precious moment for Tyler and his

618
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: dad and one that I do understand and get. All

619
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: I'm trying to say here is I get what it

620
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: feels like to walk into a room and see somebody

621
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 1: you love for the first time in months, when you've

622
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: been thinking about them constantly and worrying about them constantly,

623
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 1: and you see them and you hug them, and it

624
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: feels like a weight is lifted. But at the same time,

625
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: at least during this one town, it felt like it

626
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: was just the beginning to a lot of emotion being

627
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: shared for Tyler to say, Hey, I'm bringing this girl

628
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 1: home who I really care about? Yeah, oh absolutely. I

629
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: think that what Hannah was actually so attracted to was

630
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,719
Speaker 1: the fact that Tyler kind of like put the family

631
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 1: pants on during the dad's coma when his dad was

632
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: so sick, that he like kind of took over for

633
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: his dad. And I think leading a family like that

634
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 1: taking care of business is always a very attractive quality

635
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 1: for a woman to see in a man. And she

636
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 1: was like oddly kitty over it, you know, yeah, No,

637
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,399
Speaker 1: I mean wouldn't you be like yeah, I mean as

638
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 1: a man or as a mom. Think about it this way.

639
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 1: If you're a mom and you saw your son, you know,

640
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 1: buckle up the bootstraps, put on the pants, and start

641
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,280
Speaker 1: to be a father figure and also a meal influence

642
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: in the household. That's not only a problem moment for

643
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 1: a mother, but it's also a really attractive moment for

644
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,800
Speaker 1: any person, man or a woman, because you look at somebody,

645
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 1: go you have grit, you have a you have characteristics

646
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:42,399
Speaker 1: that show that you're ready for commitment and that you're

647
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,319
Speaker 1: a leader at any level. You're a leader who will

648
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,320
Speaker 1: step up to any type of problem that you're facing.

649
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: And I think there's no wonder that Hannah is looking

650
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,920
Speaker 1: at this guy going to, wow, this is something special.

651
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: I get it. It's great, it's great. And then they

652
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: sent then he sent her off and that in to

653
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 1: y SUV and it was hot, and again Tyler went

654
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 1: in the day. It just feels like to me after

655
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: watching this week, actually, and we'll get into Jed more,

656
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,839
Speaker 1: and I don't want to just continue to pound him

657
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 1: into the ground here, but I just have dismissed him

658
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: so much from this whole show that I watched this

659
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: and I'm like, yeah, it's it's the It's the Tyler

660
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: and Pete show. Like this other stuff is just like

661
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 1: entertaining and it's a joke. Okay, Well, let's talk about Jed.

662
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,320
Speaker 1: When we get to Jed, let's talk about Luke first,

663
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 1: because I do have, of course the most to say

664
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 1: about Jed's hometown. Yeah, let's talk about Luke. I think

665
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 1: what we have found out this week about Luke and

666
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 1: Hannah's relationship is that their common bond is over their

667
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 1: religion and the faith is keeping her into him because

668
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 1: perhaps she doesn't share that with the other three. It's

669
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: interesting we haven't heard I'm thinking about now, we haven't

670
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,759
Speaker 1: heard the other three talk much about their faith. But

671
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 1: at the same time, you know, this is where my

672
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,760
Speaker 1: envy really comes in. And I've spoken about it all season,

673
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 1: and I have a theory now. It's been really hard

674
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 1: for me to process. And as you know, I respect

675
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: this show a lot, and it's been really good for me.

676
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,360
Speaker 1: But I do have one major issue right now with

677
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: the show that I'm it's a theory, I cannot prove it, um,

678
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 1: but I was wondering why, you know, my my faith

679
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: in Jesus is the core of everything I do. It's

680
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: a lot of things I do don't make sense without it, right, Like,

681
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,320
Speaker 1: if I'm boring, it's probably because I'm trying to practice

682
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,760
Speaker 1: or think about, um, some of the teachings of Jesus.

683
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: Or if I'm speaking about, you know, my love for

684
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 1: family and my desire for kids, it's probably coming from

685
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: my faith in Jesus. Or if it's my my desire

686
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: to serve and to use my time, maybe not for

687
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: myself but others, it's coming from my faith in Jesus, Like,

688
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 1: it's the core of what I do, and it was

689
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: discussed often and it was never own and as a result,

690
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: it was frustrating to me because you know, as a Christian,

691
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,479
Speaker 1: it doesn't make sense for me to do many things

692
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 1: in my life outside of trying to show that God

693
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:16,279
Speaker 1: loves each and every person that has ever been on

694
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 1: this earth. Like, it doesn't make sense for me to

695
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: do that. It doesn't make sense for me to to

696
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 1: live a life that's that's meaningless for for any personal gain.

697
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,839
Speaker 1: That's not what I believe. And so I was frustrated

698
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,760
Speaker 1: often this season with how much Luke's faith was being shown,

699
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: because yes, I'm not going to question his faith. I

700
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 1: don't think that's fair of me. I don't know what

701
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 1: his interactions with God have been or have not been,

702
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 1: or how healthy his relationship with God is. But for me, Ashley,

703
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,760
Speaker 1: it's really frustrating because Luke and I see very differently

704
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 1: on our ideals of Christianity. We've talked about two weeks ago.

705
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,400
Speaker 1: Is Luke's gonna be a lot more conservative? Uh? He

706
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: is going to feel like a lot more things are

707
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 1: black and white and the simplicity to the faith is

708
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 1: going to feel very easy to explain where mine. You know,

709
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 1: my faith really lies in a bunch of questions. I

710
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 1: just have a thousand questions. But I the end of

711
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 1: the day, I believe in Jesus and I believe that

712
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: he is God because of my life experience. So with

713
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,800
Speaker 1: all that being said, I'm I was really frustrated with

714
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,240
Speaker 1: how much faith talk has been shown because it doesn't

715
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 1: feel like it mirrors necessarily the faith that I have.

716
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 1: And this week it made sense to me for the

717
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:27,759
Speaker 1: first time. And I want to tell you why. I

718
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 1: want to hear what you think of this, and listeners,

719
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: I want to hear you think, so please, emails have

720
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,399
Speaker 1: been an Actually I heart media dot com. I think

721
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 1: that my faith isn't entertaining because it has a lot

722
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,720
Speaker 1: of questions. Like my my faith is driven by questions,

723
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 1: what is this all about? What is life all about?

724
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: How are we supposed to interact with people? Is there

725
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: a God? Is there not a God? Does that God

726
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: love us like us? Hate us? Is it just distant

727
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,800
Speaker 1: and forgotten? Like? What is God? Those are my questions

728
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 1: And that's how my faith is driven in and really

729
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 1: it's how my conversations are driven with Luke, it's entertaining

730
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: because their stances that has been taken that. It's entertaining

731
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 1: because there's anger that's involved, and there's conviction and what's

732
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 1: right and wrong. And his communication style oftentimes is confusing

733
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 1: and it often leads to us to get become opinionated ourselves.

734
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,760
Speaker 1: And so this week, as he enters into his Bible

735
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: study or small group or whatever that was, it was

736
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 1: entertaining to watch because his story confuses the masses while

737
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 1: at the same time captivating us to the further story

738
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: that's gonna come down the line, which is is he

739
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: going to reject Hannah because she's had sex. I think

740
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 1: that's why faith has been such a conversation with Luke,

741
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 1: and I want to hear what you think. So you're

742
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 1: saying that you think it's like a definitive thing, like

743
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:51,279
Speaker 1: he doesn't question this is how it is because it's

744
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 1: funny for the public. Yeah, because I guess he I

745
00:39:55,520 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 1: guess it's entertaining because there's no wiggle room for him, right,

746
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 1: and it's more fire and brimstone. It's it's the kind

747
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: of conversations that we've had for you know, with the

748
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: history of the church and not the born people. But

749
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 1: you know, in the last four years, we've slowly progressed

750
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: into this very conservative mindset where Western uh, you know,

751
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 1: Christianity has become very very much black and white, where

752
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 1: we've lost the majesty, the magic, the mysticism to it

753
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 1: that Eastern Christianity has always had. And so his is

754
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:32,439
Speaker 1: very much like, almost entertaining because it seems so far

755
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 1: off from what anybody that isn't maybe a conservative Southern

756
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: born Christian feels. Do you think do you think that

757
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:45,439
Speaker 1: he has gained a fan base this week amongst those

758
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: very conservative, not questioning Southern Christians. Oh, I think those,

759
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people. I mean I got

760
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 1: a ton of texts from friends that in the South

761
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: that we differ and we talk beliefs in religion, and

762
00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 1: they texted me and said, Wow, how great is it.

763
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 1: I literally got it from a buddy that says, how

764
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 1: great is it that the Bachelor is finally showing Christianity

765
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:08,360
Speaker 1: on television? And my response was, but was it healthy?

766
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 1: I mean, like, it doesn't look good, it doesn't look right,

767
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 1: but it doesn't look good. It doesn't allow anyone that

768
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: isn't a Christian to go wow, that makes sense. It

769
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 1: feels isolating and rejecting, and it feels like the kind

770
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: of the tone that we've taken, and especially in our generation,

771
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: with any type of divisive topics, is this is how

772
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,320
Speaker 1: it is, and this is how it isn't, and this

773
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: is what I think, and this is what you should think.

774
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: And now we're all going to get around in a

775
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,359
Speaker 1: circle and pep each other up and tell each other

776
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 1: how great we are. And then we're gonna go and

777
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 1: live our lives and act like everything is perfect or

778
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: at least very judgy, a little bit cult like. I

779
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:52,360
Speaker 1: think it feels very very Southern Baptist Christian, and I

780
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: think that for the masses that watch The Bachelor, it

781
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,800
Speaker 1: does feel very judgy. I completely agree with you, but

782
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,320
Speaker 1: it's frustrating to me because I sit here, Ashley, and

783
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 1: I go everyone. I don't know Luke's faith. I'm not

784
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 1: going to question if he believes or what his motives are.

785
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 1: I don't know him. I don't know that I don't

786
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 1: This isn't a Luke problem. This is a this is

787
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 1: a disagreement with his viewpoints, which we should all have,

788
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 1: and we're all fair to have those. But what I

789
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: want to say is that do you realize that there's

790
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 1: so much more when it comes to our relationship with

791
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 1: God and our relationship with others and the majesty and

792
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: the questions that this world has to offer, then hey

793
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 1: don't have sex, or hey have sex? Like, do we

794
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: know that there's such? Does something so much more complex

795
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 1: to this world than that? And why are we boiling

796
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:47,720
Speaker 1: down Christianity to be like God talk to me because

797
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,840
Speaker 1: he doesn't want me to do X or he doesn't

798
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 1: want me to do Why? Why is that the tone

799
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 1: that we're taking. And that's what's so frustrating to me

800
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,440
Speaker 1: is because I feel like it's just continue to push us.

801
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 1: We're a shandy acts as something nobody can understand why

802
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,880
Speaker 1: the rest of the world rejects and laughs at it?

803
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 1: Is it so weird that this show over the past

804
00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,800
Speaker 1: couple of years has been so focused on sex and

805
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:18,680
Speaker 1: who is having or not having it? I think it is.

806
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,800
Speaker 1: Does it feel a little bit odd? Like it feels

807
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 1: weird because I just don't think it's something that is

808
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 1: I don't think it needs to be as big of

809
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: a deal as they're making it seems season after season.

810
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 1: Is it is sex sell that much? I think the

811
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 1: topic of sex is such a intimate, raw topic for

812
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 1: all of us, and one that still feels a little

813
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 1: bit taboo um because of you know, just our generation

814
00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 1: and kind of how our parents are raised that it

815
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:46,359
Speaker 1: feels like we're still like tiptoeing the line between doing

816
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 1: something bad by talking about it, and so we all

817
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 1: want to see it, talk about it here it um.

818
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,279
Speaker 1: I think we'll see that slowly go away to where

819
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 1: we can have more honest dialogue. It doesn't seem so weird,

820
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,080
Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean, I but I'll be on this.

821
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 1: Actually if there's a preview like this one that says

822
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 1: Hannah had sex with a guy twice in a in

823
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,759
Speaker 1: a lighthouse, like, I'm gonna be talking about it. A windmill?

824
00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: Wind mill? That's it? How do you do that? I

825
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:14,920
Speaker 1: don't going up? And that is that thing, that feeling

826
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: that a fantasy suite takes place in a windmill. Apparently

827
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:22,320
Speaker 1: Greece has windmills, even though uh, Amsterdam in Holland and

828
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:26,320
Speaker 1: the Netherlands are known for their windmills. Um. I believe

829
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:29,399
Speaker 1: that the sex happens next week, but we'll see. Yeah.

830
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: I think Actually what I want to get out was

831
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:33,239
Speaker 1: I'm envious because I would have loved to talk about

832
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:37,800
Speaker 1: Jesus during and I'm sad that I that wasn't a topic.

833
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 1: And I'm also a little sad of how Jesus is

834
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: being portrayed this season for the right or wrong. If

835
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: if Luke was having so much sex that it was

836
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: a problem, or if he was feel like having sex

837
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 1: at all was a problem. And he's a better man

838
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 1: because he stopped and he was no longer mistreating women,

839
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,880
Speaker 1: or he was no longer mistreating himself and his party

840
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 1: ways allowed it for clarity to where he can now

841
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,840
Speaker 1: start to focus on people better. We got to celebrate that,

842
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 1: like that's a good victory in life for anybody to

843
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 1: where they can get rid of things that are harmful

844
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:14,719
Speaker 1: to themselves to help them become a better person. Now

845
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,239
Speaker 1: all those things will be different to everybody. But his

846
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 1: friends are saying something the whole time, actually that as viewers,

847
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 1: I think we we saw a lot of tweets they're

848
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 1: saying it's laughable because all of his friends are saying

849
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 1: he's the nicest dude ever. One tweet that we got says,

850
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 1: of course Luke would fill the room with a bunch

851
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 1: of people that will make him look like the best

852
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 1: guy ever. Do you agree or disagree or do you

853
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:36,840
Speaker 1: think that Luke back Home is really that type of

854
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 1: guy to everybody loves. I think that Luke back Home

855
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 1: probably surrounds himself with people that really genuinely like him,

856
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 1: as we all do. I feel like he just he

857
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 1: rubs the guys in this in the Bachelor House the

858
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:53,400
Speaker 1: wrong way because they don't see the world like he

859
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 1: does or tries to see the world. There's an interesting

860
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,480
Speaker 1: take that Lauren uh is speaking of what you just said.

861
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 1: Lauren's has an interesting take this week where I heard

862
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 1: her talking and she said, you know, the one thing

863
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:06,320
Speaker 1: we got to give Luke credit forward. It seems like

864
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 1: the fans are is that he is still the one

865
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,360
Speaker 1: guy that's definitely there for Hannah. You know, Tyler and

866
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 1: Pete embrace once Peter gets back to the house like

867
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,759
Speaker 1: true friends do, and and and Jed seems to get

868
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 1: along with those guys just fine. But but Luke is

869
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 1: still the guy that has no friends in the house.

870
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 1: But it's still there for Hannah. Do we feel like

871
00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 1: there is room for friendship while at the same time

872
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 1: you're falling in love and dating the same woman. As

873
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: certain point, I think there's gonna be tension between the friends,

874
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 1: especially especially when it comes top four. There's a good

875
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:47,160
Speaker 1: reason why. That's the time where you stop interacting with

876
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,320
Speaker 1: the other cast members. You're completely separated from them. I

877
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:51,719
Speaker 1: don't know if a lot of people know that. The

878
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 1: only times you see the other cast members during this

879
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:59,320
Speaker 1: week and on is at Rose ceremonies. And I do

880
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:03,640
Speaker 1: feel like they can have a great friendship, but it

881
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:07,320
Speaker 1: definitely feels a little weird to be like congratulating and

882
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 1: and stuff and being happy that the other guys sticking

883
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:15,839
Speaker 1: around at this point, because then it does feel like, oh, well,

884
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:17,960
Speaker 1: how invested are you and her? If you're still happy

885
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,840
Speaker 1: your your friend is hanging around, I think, you know,

886
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 1: you think you can question that. I look back on

887
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 1: my time with Sean Booth, and we were really good friends,

888
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: and he obviously ended up with Caitlin, and I wanted

889
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 1: to celebrate him, but also it was happy for them

890
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:37,000
Speaker 1: because we were better friends, like we were good friends,

891
00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:38,760
Speaker 1: and so I wanted to celebrate them as a couple

892
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 1: because I knew who he was as a man, and

893
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:43,360
Speaker 1: I knew at the time how much they cared for

894
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,840
Speaker 1: each other. But it did feel weird at all levels

895
00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 1: for him to ever confide in me about his relationship,

896
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:49,680
Speaker 1: and I'm sure it was vice versa, and so at

897
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 1: some point we just stopped talking about it. Yeah, at

898
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:54,440
Speaker 1: some point, I think like you put it kind of

899
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:58,839
Speaker 1: on pause. It would be beneficial though. I will say

900
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:03,720
Speaker 1: this for Hannah if Luke or if Tyler and Pete

901
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 1: get along really well, that at the end of this,

902
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 1: if she ends up with one of them and not

903
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:12,040
Speaker 1: the other, because then they will hopefully discuss and and

904
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 1: and they will both understand why she was so into

905
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:17,360
Speaker 1: both of them, and there's no longer that tension between

906
00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, do you still think about Tyler? Oh

907
00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:21,960
Speaker 1: my gosh, you still think about Peter? They'll say, No,

908
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 1: we all get along just fine. We respect each other,

909
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,239
Speaker 1: we like each other. But I'm ultimately moving on with

910
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 1: one of those guys alone. That That's not how Sean

911
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 1: was with you, guys. Um we talked for a little

912
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:39,160
Speaker 1: bit afterwards. I think it just gets hard. I think

913
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,239
Speaker 1: it gets weird because you have to watch it back

914
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:42,880
Speaker 1: then and you have to see this person that you

915
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 1: love saying things and doing things with your friends, and

916
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 1: it's like I don't like this, Like, this isn't fun

917
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 1: for me to watch her at all any level making

918
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 1: out with people, especially people that I consider my friends.

919
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 1: You take it personally for a while, and I think

920
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:00,080
Speaker 1: over time it fades. But there is good examples of

921
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,360
Speaker 1: people who get along post show. I think Blake and

922
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,719
Speaker 1: Garrett get along really well post show. Um, I think, uh,

923
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know about Nick season if they

924
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,440
Speaker 1: get along very well post show. But you know, Cassie

925
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:16,080
Speaker 1: is really good friends with Kalin, So that's happening post show.

926
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:20,319
Speaker 1: Like there's things that happen there there that does exist. Um, hey,

927
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 1: I actually want to talk to you a little bit.

928
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:25,319
Speaker 1: We obviously know that Luke's family is going to support him.

929
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:27,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's family, and we hope they would. That

930
00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:30,839
Speaker 1: would be really sad if they didn't. Were you Does

931
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 1: your viewpoint of Luke after his hometown has it changed

932
00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 1: at all? Has this done anything good for you? I

933
00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:40,400
Speaker 1: mean it helps them a little bit because his family

934
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 1: seems genuinely nice and like they seemed pretty lovely right, Um,

935
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,400
Speaker 1: the sister, the sister in law, and the brother. They

936
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:52,320
Speaker 1: really try to defend him. It was interesting. I actually

937
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,800
Speaker 1: loved how Hannah was so upfront with like, this hasn't

938
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,239
Speaker 1: been easy for us, Like he has created a lot

939
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:01,200
Speaker 1: of complications along the way. But um, I guess, like

940
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:03,239
Speaker 1: this is the best I've ever felt about Luke. But

941
00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:05,880
Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that like I am rooting for him

942
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:10,200
Speaker 1: in any capacity? Is it weird for you? A big

943
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 1: article came out this week or last night on US

944
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:16,520
Speaker 1: Weekly about Hannah's text during the show and how kind

945
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:19,960
Speaker 1: of controversial there were her tweets, sorry and We're One

946
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 1: tweet said, have you ever told a family that nobody

947
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 1: likes your son? That? You know what I took It

948
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 1: doesn't sound like somebody that has a fiance like with

949
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:30,839
Speaker 1: like that Luke is her fiance, Like I don't think

950
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 1: my fiance would be tweeting something like that. Oh yeah, no,

951
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:38,719
Speaker 1: totally not. So it obviously doesn't. Yeah, well, I mean

952
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 1: we obviously don't we. I think it's not a spoiler

953
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 1: because we already see We've already seen Luke's exit, so

954
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:49,000
Speaker 1: so it's pretty we're just kind of waiting to see

955
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 1: when he goes home. I guess why why have they?

956
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:53,839
Speaker 1: I mean, like, I know it's great teaser, but I'm

957
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: still kind of confused. Why they would leave this so

958
00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:59,520
Speaker 1: anti climatic for us because they put the best stuff

959
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 1: in the teeth or I mean, unless there's like better

960
00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:05,719
Speaker 1: stuff waiting for us. Oh, I think from everything I

961
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 1: hear and I still don't know how this ends. But

962
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:11,279
Speaker 1: the rumors that go around Bachelor Nation right now and

963
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:13,799
Speaker 1: is that this season ends in the wildest way ever

964
00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 1: the season ends. But I'm talking about like the windmill,

965
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 1: like her confessing to Luke that she did have sex

966
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:23,719
Speaker 1: with somebody, and that whole scene, which is kind of

967
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 1: like this season's fence jumping scene. I just am really

968
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 1: curious as to why they've shown Luke attached to that

969
00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:36,440
Speaker 1: scene because wouldn't it be better if we didn't know

970
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 1: who she was talking to in that moment? Like why

971
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:42,319
Speaker 1: did they give away his exit for us? Well, because

972
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,439
Speaker 1: I think it's actually I have a theory that there's

973
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:46,759
Speaker 1: so many other amazing things that are gonna happen the

974
00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,759
Speaker 1: next few weeks that that is just a small little moment.

975
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:53,719
Speaker 1: Really Okay, I think there's some crazy things going to happen,

976
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 1: and I think her talking to Luke about this is

977
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 1: something that will watch with intrigue and it will ultimately

978
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 1: be a big moment, but it will just be a

979
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:03,279
Speaker 1: moment and it won't be a storyline. Okay, well, there

980
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 1: is that hole he comes back with the ring thing.

981
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:09,399
Speaker 1: That's something we've kind of forgotten about. There's a lot

982
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:11,200
Speaker 1: to do and a lot to go on, and we're

983
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,719
Speaker 1: we're just really getting into it. We have weeks left. Um,

984
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 1: so okay, finally I want to touch once again. Hannah

985
00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:22,840
Speaker 1: sent some tweets out last night that were controversial that

986
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:26,120
Speaker 1: people seem to be uh maybe criticizing or judging or

987
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 1: also celebrating. Are you a fan of this? Did any

988
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,080
Speaker 1: of them rub you the wrong way? Uh? Do you

989
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:33,399
Speaker 1: want her to continue this? Or she should she stay

990
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,320
Speaker 1: off of social media until the end of the season.

991
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 1: Should we go through these? So she quoted Trains two

992
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 1: thousand one hit drops of Jupiter last night, and she

993
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:47,600
Speaker 1: tweeted back from the atmosphere now drops of Jupiter in

994
00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:51,160
Speaker 1: her hair, alongside a photo of them in the ocean,

995
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 1: her and Tyler. So she's looking upon Tyler still highly

996
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:07,520
Speaker 1: possibly nostalgic romantically. You do you confirm? Yeah, I do confirm.

997
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,080
Speaker 1: I mean I think I don't think it points me

998
00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:11,920
Speaker 1: to if they're together or not. But I just think

999
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,320
Speaker 1: there's a lot of After reading through all the texts

1000
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,280
Speaker 1: or tweets on each one of the people, it feels

1001
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,520
Speaker 1: like you can tell definitely who she's in favor of

1002
00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:22,160
Speaker 1: and who she's not. And she's definitely in favor of Tyler. Yeah,

1003
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:24,160
Speaker 1: so even if they don't end up together, she's still

1004
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:28,400
Speaker 1: like a fan. Yes, definitely, and and h Tyler has

1005
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:31,680
Speaker 1: also tweeted very kind things about Hannah as well in

1006
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:34,360
Speaker 1: the past couple of weeks. I think it's going to

1007
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:36,319
Speaker 1: be one of those scenarios that you, even if they're

1008
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 1: not together, which I wouldn't be surprised that they are,

1009
00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 1: there's a lot of respect and that this will ultimately

1010
00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:43,759
Speaker 1: come down to them sitting at after the final rows

1011
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:46,840
Speaker 1: or mentel all or whatever, either madly in love or

1012
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 1: just like super positive about each other. Yeah, totally. And

1013
00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:55,400
Speaker 1: then she tweeted during her dates with Luke and and

1014
00:53:55,800 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 1: uh jed god bless this mess. Huh again, I don't think.

1015
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:05,560
Speaker 1: I don't think that points is to thinking that she's

1016
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:07,960
Speaker 1: with either of them. That's my read on that, right,

1017
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,360
Speaker 1: I mean, public, what do you think let us know

1018
00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,719
Speaker 1: through Twitter or through email? But these tweets seem to

1019
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,240
Speaker 1: be pointing that she's if she's saying, god, bus is mess,

1020
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,640
Speaker 1: Like I don't think she's with le Jet or Luke,

1021
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 1: but maybe she is. But I mean, like, I guess

1022
00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:23,760
Speaker 1: it's just gonna be like all of our own families

1023
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,680
Speaker 1: just a mess, are they is? And it always well

1024
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 1: not really not with me and probably not with you.

1025
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:32,800
Speaker 1: You get along with Just's family and yeah, this is

1026
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:35,840
Speaker 1: not mess rust either, So our biggest mess is like,

1027
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:38,520
Speaker 1: you know, how good of a time can we have

1028
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:40,759
Speaker 1: and if like baseball is on and how are we

1029
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: gonna fit that into the dinner? So like, no, I

1030
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:45,879
Speaker 1: get along grade with her family, and I'm sure there's

1031
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 1: gonna be moments where like, oh, we need a break.

1032
00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:49,960
Speaker 1: I mean, just just in it's been a week with

1033
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,520
Speaker 1: my parents and she left and she's like that was awesome.

1034
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:55,160
Speaker 1: Now I'm guaranteeing there's moments where she was like, I

1035
00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:57,280
Speaker 1: need to get out of this house. This is crazy.

1036
00:54:57,960 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 1: But for the most part, we got along fine. So

1037
00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:03,600
Speaker 1: I don't know. Ashley listeners out there, please go back

1038
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:07,840
Speaker 1: through read this article. Um, it's just shows the tweets

1039
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:10,000
Speaker 1: that Hannah was sending. It seems to be pointing in

1040
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:13,160
Speaker 1: the direction of Tyler and Pete being oh my god,

1041
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:14,840
Speaker 1: oh my god. All right, there's another two. We have

1042
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 1: to read what she said during the Georgia date, which

1043
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:21,560
Speaker 1: was with Luke. She goes, uh, I was on Med's,

1044
00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,840
Speaker 1: I was sick. I went to urgent care. I do

1045
00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 1: not know the things I said while in Georgia. So

1046
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:31,600
Speaker 1: she did say about Luke in her interview I'm in

1047
00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,040
Speaker 1: love with Luke, or she said I love Luke, and

1048
00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:35,759
Speaker 1: she was I mean, I'm falling in love with Luke.

1049
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:40,520
Speaker 1: So she obviously is saying like I was totally incoherent

1050
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:43,480
Speaker 1: when I said that. Oh no, that's not good for anybody.

1051
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:46,200
Speaker 1: But here's my question. This brings up a new topic.

1052
00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:49,120
Speaker 1: How I cannot wait to talk to Hannah. It's gonna

1053
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,880
Speaker 1: be one of my first questions. How often was she

1054
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:54,000
Speaker 1: sick on this show? Sick like almost every week. The

1055
00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:57,799
Speaker 1: poor girl's got like a constant flu. She's still looking great.

1056
00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 1: There was another perpetic thing she posts it on Instagram

1057
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,879
Speaker 1: that I think is now gone. It was her at

1058
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:08,480
Speaker 1: the Dodgers game and she said something and it was

1059
00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:12,400
Speaker 1: the day that the Jet news broke. But it looks deleted.

1060
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:16,280
Speaker 1: Now interesting, I'm going to type that in right now. Okay,

1061
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 1: while you do that. While you do that, keep talking

1062
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,520
Speaker 1: while I do that, Keep talking while you do that. Actually,

1063
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 1: let's take a break and let's talk to everybody about

1064
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:27,640
Speaker 1: some of our favorite sponsors who we care so much about.

1065
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:30,960
Speaker 1: I Heard Radio wants you to be part of history

1079
00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:34,440
Speaker 1: was talking about how there's a cryptic Instagram message that

1080
00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:37,439
Speaker 1: Hannah has sent out that has now been deleted, we think,

1081
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 1: but she's found it, Ashley tell our listeners. Yeah, so

1082
00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:45,960
Speaker 1: she has deleted it. I think looking at her profile.

1083
00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:48,880
Speaker 1: A couple of weeks ago, when the Jed thing came out,

1084
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,840
Speaker 1: Hannah posted a picture of her throwing the first pitch

1085
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:56,640
Speaker 1: out at a Dodgers game, and the caption read throwing

1086
00:57:56,800 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 1: out pitches snitches, referring to possibly Lindsay Jed's X as

1087
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:11,080
Speaker 1: a snitch. Oh, throwing out pitches snitches the day of

1088
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 1: I do gotta give Hannah credit that if she is

1089
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 1: really cryptically writing these messages, she does a pretty freaking

1090
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 1: good job at it. Yeah. She Her tweets are really funny.

1091
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:26,400
Speaker 1: They're super cryptic. They're hard to understand sometimes, but if

1092
00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 1: you read through them, you're like, I get it, Like

1093
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:32,120
Speaker 1: girl smart, she's getting it. Um. Speaking of Jed, we've

1094
00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:34,560
Speaker 1: got to jump in here. Uh we're runningut of time,

1095
00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 1: but we've got to talk about Jed's hometown. I think

1096
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:39,400
Speaker 1: it was a train wreck. I don't think it makes

1097
00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 1: any sense, uh, the Jed. And again I say all this, Ashley,

1098
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 1: because I unfortunately I've dismissed Jed from the show because

1099
00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 1: of what we found out about him. I also don't

1100
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 1: love that his ex girlfriend has gone on every single

1101
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:55,840
Speaker 1: it feels like podcast or talk show out there to

1102
00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:58,680
Speaker 1: discuss this thing. It no longer makes this thing feel

1103
00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:01,840
Speaker 1: like an organic like situation. Just feels like there's a

1104
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:04,280
Speaker 1: story to be told and she's telling it. But I'm

1105
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,040
Speaker 1: not a fan that Jed did this whole thing. I

1106
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:07,640
Speaker 1: don't know the back story. We've never talked to Jet

1107
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:09,160
Speaker 1: and hopefully you get him on the podcast soon to

1108
00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:13,120
Speaker 1: get to the bottom of it. But once again, music

1109
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 1: is a part of his date. We've never seen anything

1110
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:20,120
Speaker 1: like this before. What's your thoughts. It's so bizarre, how

1111
00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:23,400
Speaker 1: like he's admitted that it came on to promote his career,

1112
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:27,800
Speaker 1: and like we've said before, we've never seen any other

1113
00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:33,440
Speaker 1: musician gets so much music screen time. I that that

1114
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 1: being said, I mean, I think it was super it

1115
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:39,320
Speaker 1: was super crazy. It's super crazy that the hometown was

1116
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:42,720
Speaker 1: them writing a song in a studio and then they

1117
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 1: went to the family in which like they literally were like,

1118
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 1: we're more supportive of his music career than we are

1119
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:54,840
Speaker 1: with his relationship, possibly with you. But but I have

1120
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 1: to say that it was a very genuine moment. When

1121
00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:00,120
Speaker 1: they were at the mic singing the song together her,

1122
01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I feel this. This feels really genuine.

1123
01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:05,400
Speaker 1: I feel like maybe he fell in love with her.

1124
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 1: So then I'm sitting on the couch and I'm like, Jared,

1125
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,520
Speaker 1: I think he does love her, and this is like

1126
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 1: all just too bad. And then he goes, doesn't matter,

1127
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:19,520
Speaker 1: and I go, well, yeah, of course it matters. It

1128
01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:22,480
Speaker 1: makes me feel good that he you know, that he

1129
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:27,960
Speaker 1: genuinely did end up falling for her, totally unexpectedly. But

1130
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:30,800
Speaker 1: he goes, but in the end, doesn't matter, and I

1131
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:34,960
Speaker 1: go like, yes, not because although it makes me feel

1132
01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:39,280
Speaker 1: better about his character, at the end of the day,

1133
01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:43,560
Speaker 1: he's not somebody that maybe it doesn't make me feel

1134
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:46,160
Speaker 1: better about his character, but it makes me just feel

1135
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 1: It makes me, like have feel good that he got

1136
01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:53,360
Speaker 1: tricked in damn it. What is the words here? What

1137
01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:56,280
Speaker 1: are the words here? He got? I like the way

1138
01:00:56,360 --> 01:01:00,160
Speaker 1: that the process he the process worked for him him,

1139
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,320
Speaker 1: and like was like, ha ha, jokes on you. It

1140
01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:05,840
Speaker 1: worked and you never even thought it was a possibility.

1141
01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:08,200
Speaker 1: That's what I like. He got what he had coming

1142
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:10,560
Speaker 1: for him, Like he went into this whole thing saying

1143
01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:13,120
Speaker 1: I'm not here to be famous. He says that up front,

1144
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:14,919
Speaker 1: and he almost tries to get ahead of the game

1145
01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:16,720
Speaker 1: by saying, oh, I wasn't here or it came to

1146
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:19,080
Speaker 1: be famous and I fell in love. And so he's

1147
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:23,440
Speaker 1: helping like the fuse the argument that he ultimately knows

1148
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:26,440
Speaker 1: will come down the line later. And then we kind

1149
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 1: of all believe him. I remember it, We all believe

1150
01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:30,080
Speaker 1: they were like, that's kind of cool that he did that,

1151
01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:32,000
Speaker 1: and we get it. And then at the very end

1152
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:34,280
Speaker 1: it turns back on him and it blows back up

1153
01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:36,320
Speaker 1: in his face. So thank you, yes, jokes on him.

1154
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:39,080
Speaker 1: That's what I kind of like about it. But then

1155
01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 1: when Jared was like, what doesn't matter at the end

1156
01:01:40,760 --> 01:01:42,480
Speaker 1: of the day, and I'm like, I guess you're right.

1157
01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 1: I guess it doesn't because you can't be in a

1158
01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 1: relationship with somebody that you can't trust, no matter how

1159
01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:53,680
Speaker 1: much you love them, because trust is such a crucial

1160
01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:57,080
Speaker 1: part of a relationship. And Hannah, when she finds this

1161
01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:00,280
Speaker 1: this news out about the girlfriend, I don't think he's

1162
01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:04,280
Speaker 1: ever going to be able to fully trust him. It's

1163
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:08,400
Speaker 1: it's a. Really, it's gonna be really interesting how this

1164
01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,480
Speaker 1: whole thing ends. But I think one telling factor was

1165
01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:14,560
Speaker 1: how his family treated Hannah on the hometown date. I

1166
01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:16,520
Speaker 1: would have been so turned off and I would have

1167
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:20,600
Speaker 1: had a conversation with him after that hometown date. Yeah,

1168
01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it feels like they wanted to, but they

1169
01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:24,760
Speaker 1: didn't want to throw them under the bus on national television.

1170
01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:26,360
Speaker 1: They felt like I felt like they were being like

1171
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:30,080
Speaker 1: tongue in cheek the whole time, wanting to tell him, Hey,

1172
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:33,480
Speaker 1: what's going on here, while at the same time not

1173
01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:35,720
Speaker 1: saying anything because they knew it would make him look

1174
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:38,160
Speaker 1: like an idiot. And I think he was probably sitting

1175
01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:41,160
Speaker 1: there the whole time, nervous, going I know what there's

1176
01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:43,680
Speaker 1: going through their head. I want to tell them. I'm

1177
01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:46,320
Speaker 1: trying to like cryptically tell them that everything's fine and

1178
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:48,960
Speaker 1: that I have this under control. But at the same time,

1179
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:50,960
Speaker 1: I bet they're freaking out because now I'm bringing a

1180
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 1: girl home, saying him in love with her, and we're

1181
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:56,560
Speaker 1: going off to hometown or fantasy suites together. So you

1182
01:02:57,040 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 1: you do think that they were acting so rudely bizarrely

1183
01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:05,520
Speaker 1: because they were like, what the heck is going on

1184
01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:08,080
Speaker 1: here and like in some way maybe they were trying

1185
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:13,800
Speaker 1: to deter Hannah from picking him. Yeah yeah, definitely good

1186
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,480
Speaker 1: for them too, Yeah yeah, I wish they would have

1187
01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:18,720
Speaker 1: done it in a way that didn't seem so offensive

1188
01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:22,000
Speaker 1: towards Hannah. They seem to like really bel the mom

1189
01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:25,920
Speaker 1: and the sister. Especially the mom really seemed to belittle

1190
01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:30,520
Speaker 1: and demean the process of the Bachelor at And it's

1191
01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 1: just so ironic that she said, I'm sure you're saying

1192
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,400
Speaker 1: I love you to all these guys and Hannah was like, no, no,

1193
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:41,480
Speaker 1: I really haven't. And then she's the one who has

1194
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,480
Speaker 1: the son who said I love you to another girl

1195
01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:47,560
Speaker 1: right before going on the show. Mm hmm, how wild

1196
01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:51,120
Speaker 1: is that? Right? So crazy? Well, I gotta respect the parents,

1197
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:53,560
Speaker 1: and I know people are giving the parents a little

1198
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:56,560
Speaker 1: grief last night. Yes, we think about the situation there

1199
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 1: in Ashley, like we need to understand the place that

1200
01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:01,720
Speaker 1: they're getting in. Their son comes home with a woman

1201
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,840
Speaker 1: who he has had a girlfriend two months before. They're

1202
01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:06,880
Speaker 1: not only angry with him, they're confused by the show.

1203
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:10,240
Speaker 1: The show's invading their house. He's telling him he loves there,

1204
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 1: Like they're probably really confused and they just want to

1205
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:16,920
Speaker 1: They're gonna be distant, they're gonna be a little bit angry.

1206
01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:19,560
Speaker 1: They're gonna say things that probably don't make sense because

1207
01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:21,919
Speaker 1: nothing that's happening in their own household is making sense

1208
01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,680
Speaker 1: right now to them. Okay, can be upset with it.

1209
01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:27,680
Speaker 1: We should say that Lindsay in her many interviews, has

1210
01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:30,680
Speaker 1: said that she didn't meet the family, So that would,

1211
01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:34,280
Speaker 1: you know, contribute to the confusion. Uh, you know what

1212
01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 1: the heck is going on with with this? We just

1213
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:39,960
Speaker 1: met a girl that you said that you love, and

1214
01:04:40,040 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 1: you said that you were just leaving for career reasons

1215
01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:45,560
Speaker 1: and all that. But I'm just some super confused by

1216
01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:50,480
Speaker 1: why they would put so much sass towards Hannah because

1217
01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:53,200
Speaker 1: the mom's eyes, like the mom and the sister's eyes

1218
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:55,960
Speaker 1: just had so much coldness to them. Why didn't we

1219
01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:59,439
Speaker 1: see conversations between the mom and the sister with Jed

1220
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:03,840
Speaker 1: and them giving sass to Jed And why would they

1221
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,680
Speaker 1: be cold towards Hannah's on Hannah's issue as Jed's issue.

1222
01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:09,560
Speaker 1: So even like as a loving parent, you're still gonna

1223
01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:12,560
Speaker 1: be like, there's some this is this is wrong, You're

1224
01:05:12,640 --> 01:05:16,120
Speaker 1: doing something wrong. Hannah's not doing anything wrong. Yeah, but

1225
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:19,040
Speaker 1: I gotta think about my parents in this situation where

1226
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:21,520
Speaker 1: I know if my parents had something like this happening,

1227
01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:23,919
Speaker 1: they would be so thrown off and their attitudes would

1228
01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:27,360
Speaker 1: have been so negative and confused that their whole persona

1229
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:31,080
Speaker 1: would have been cold to everybody. Yeah, there's no like

1230
01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:33,320
Speaker 1: turning it on or off with my parents, right if

1231
01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:36,080
Speaker 1: you're if if something's happened that's turned them off, they're

1232
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:39,240
Speaker 1: gonna be turned off to everybody, like at least for

1233
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 1: that period of time. And it's in their own home,

1234
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:42,840
Speaker 1: so they're not able to get away and like take

1235
01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:46,080
Speaker 1: t tende breasts to like regroup. This is all happening

1236
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:49,240
Speaker 1: to them at once, and I wouldn't be surprised because

1237
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:52,040
Speaker 1: they don't understand the whole situation. If they're grouping Hannah

1238
01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:54,760
Speaker 1: in with this whole experience and they're not able to

1239
01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:57,240
Speaker 1: compartmentalize them and say, oh, Hannah really has nothing to

1240
01:05:57,280 --> 01:05:59,560
Speaker 1: do with this. I wonder if they're thinking, oh, Hannah

1241
01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:02,680
Speaker 1: knows all about this, like what what I mean? I

1242
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 1: bet they want to ask you the question, does Hannah

1243
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:08,480
Speaker 1: know about Lindsey? But they didn't because they're smart enough

1244
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,040
Speaker 1: to say, wait, that could be bad if she doesn't.

1245
01:06:11,760 --> 01:06:14,560
Speaker 1: But what if she does and she's good with it,

1246
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:17,320
Speaker 1: then we're angry at everybody here. Yeah, part of me

1247
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:20,720
Speaker 1: was wondering whether or not they were like, this is

1248
01:06:20,800 --> 01:06:22,760
Speaker 1: just a show, Like this is all just for show.

1249
01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:24,760
Speaker 1: She's in it because it's a show, and he's in

1250
01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:28,160
Speaker 1: it a show. And I don't even know why they're

1251
01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:32,760
Speaker 1: saying these like love things, like they probably think of

1252
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:36,760
Speaker 1: the show completely unromantically. Definitely, Yeah, they think it's just

1253
01:06:36,880 --> 01:06:40,360
Speaker 1: a show. And it's unfair a little bit to any

1254
01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:42,479
Speaker 1: family that gets involved in this thing because they didn't

1255
01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:44,320
Speaker 1: sign up for it. They're not prepared for all of

1256
01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:47,320
Speaker 1: a sudden, you know, fifty people show up to your house.

1257
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:50,520
Speaker 1: They start moving furniture around, they start putting in cameras.

1258
01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:52,840
Speaker 1: You know, all this stuff is going on. You're sitting

1259
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,240
Speaker 1: in your living room talking about, you know, your son

1260
01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 1: in a way that you've never talked about him before,

1261
01:06:57,440 --> 01:06:59,120
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, everybody shows up and

1262
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:01,720
Speaker 1: and the fun begin ends. It's unfair to every family

1263
01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:03,240
Speaker 1: that ever has to do it. Some do it better

1264
01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:05,040
Speaker 1: than others, some like it more than others. But at

1265
01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:06,960
Speaker 1: the end of the day. It's not fair to any family.

1266
01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:10,200
Speaker 1: It's just not It's not an enjoyable experience, and this

1267
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:12,480
Speaker 1: family was definitely the ones that had the most writing

1268
01:07:12,520 --> 01:07:14,320
Speaker 1: on it. They had a lot, a lot to process

1269
01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:16,360
Speaker 1: in a very short period of time. I think it's

1270
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:19,680
Speaker 1: very unfair for any viewer to criticize Jed's family, or

1271
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:24,800
Speaker 1: really any family during this experience because it's hard to process.

1272
01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:27,600
Speaker 1: You can't process it, especially if you have a son

1273
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:30,520
Speaker 1: who's making it harder on you to process. Like for me,

1274
01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:33,520
Speaker 1: when I sat down my parents, I gave him a rundown.

1275
01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:35,240
Speaker 1: I said, Hey, this is how I need you to

1276
01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:38,160
Speaker 1: act right now, Like I need you to be welcoming, graceful.

1277
01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,880
Speaker 1: When you're confused, know that it will be sorted out

1278
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:44,560
Speaker 1: or asked me. But don't over analyze any of this stuff.

1279
01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:46,200
Speaker 1: Just make sure that you're getting to know these women

1280
01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:49,040
Speaker 1: the best way possible. Jed sat down and was like,

1281
01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:50,720
Speaker 1: I'm all in love with girl, this girl. They're like,

1282
01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 1: you just told us that a month and a half

1283
01:07:52,680 --> 01:07:55,680
Speaker 1: ago with Lindsay, Like what happened? Do you think that

1284
01:07:55,840 --> 01:07:58,920
Speaker 1: that's why? They were like it's a musicians lifestyle, like

1285
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:01,040
Speaker 1: they kept talking about like he's a musician, he's not

1286
01:08:01,160 --> 01:08:03,600
Speaker 1: ready to settle down. Do we think that it's just

1287
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:06,640
Speaker 1: because like he likes to just hang out with a

1288
01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: lot of girls, or do we think that they actually

1289
01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:12,280
Speaker 1: want they actually think that he can't focus on his

1290
01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:17,960
Speaker 1: career with the relationship. Time out is jed making money? Well,

1291
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 1: we know what the People articles said. They said that

1292
01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:22,240
Speaker 1: the dad was paying for part of his rent every month.

1293
01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:24,200
Speaker 1: They also said that he had a zillion side hustles,

1294
01:08:24,240 --> 01:08:26,160
Speaker 1: which means that he's probably like, well, we actually know

1295
01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:30,960
Speaker 1: that he performs sort of like not a strip club

1296
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:35,040
Speaker 1: in like in Nashville, but like a shirtless club. Yeah,

1297
01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:38,720
Speaker 1: so like we can't say this is a musician's lifestyle, Like,

1298
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:41,559
Speaker 1: well it's not. Let's not group him in with musicians

1299
01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:43,559
Speaker 1: that we think, I I know some really good musicians.

1300
01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:47,360
Speaker 1: It's a struggling musicians lifestyle. Struggling and struggling musicians lifestyle.

1301
01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:51,679
Speaker 1: He's not ready for to settle down because of his career.

1302
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:54,000
Speaker 1: Fair well, I mean, let's lay it on the table.

1303
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:58,040
Speaker 1: He doesn't make money being a musician. The People article

1304
01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:00,880
Speaker 1: says that his dad's paying for his rent. Uh. He

1305
01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:04,519
Speaker 1: he doesn't have a consistent album out like as a result,

1306
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:07,080
Speaker 1: we we could we could definitely point to you're not

1307
01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:11,560
Speaker 1: probably ready to settle down in a committed relationship. I

1308
01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:13,880
Speaker 1: think that's great. But do you think it's weird? Do

1309
01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:17,040
Speaker 1: you think it's weird that, like, um, they made it

1310
01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:21,599
Speaker 1: seem like they were putting his music career before him

1311
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:26,040
Speaker 1: finding love. Uh No, I mean because it's what he's

1312
01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:28,559
Speaker 1: pointed to, wanting Tom want what he wants. Like they're

1313
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:30,320
Speaker 1: going off of what they knew about Jed when he

1314
01:09:30,400 --> 01:09:32,160
Speaker 1: left for the show. When he left for the show,

1315
01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:35,479
Speaker 1: his main concern with his career, um, And so they're

1316
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:37,439
Speaker 1: trying to get behind and support that. So I don't

1317
01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:39,479
Speaker 1: think it's I don't think it's a family's place to

1318
01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:44,040
Speaker 1: prioritize the kids. Uh you know, desires or there once,

1319
01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:46,479
Speaker 1: but it is their their place to hopefully support those.

1320
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:48,720
Speaker 1: And so they're just saying, Jed, when you left, you

1321
01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:50,639
Speaker 1: said you want to be a musician, and you left,

1322
01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:53,320
Speaker 1: you said this is gonna be good for your career. Hey, Jed,

1323
01:09:53,680 --> 01:09:55,680
Speaker 1: That's what we got behind and supported because when you're

1324
01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:58,000
Speaker 1: questioning your motives and saying, hey, is this a good idea?

1325
01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:00,960
Speaker 1: You have a girlfriend and you said, hey, it's just

1326
01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:03,120
Speaker 1: for my career. That's what we got behind and supported,

1327
01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:05,400
Speaker 1: and now you're saying you're in love. I don't get it.

1328
01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 1: I just had a thought perhaps this was the family's way,

1329
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:12,080
Speaker 1: because remember how Jed said that he was going to

1330
01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:14,040
Speaker 1: go on and then like he would make it too

1331
01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:17,360
Speaker 1: hopefully five or four, and then he'd have a great

1332
01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:20,040
Speaker 1: platform for having a career. But he didn't intend to

1333
01:10:20,080 --> 01:10:22,840
Speaker 1: go all the way. Yea, So maybe this was the

1334
01:10:22,880 --> 01:10:25,400
Speaker 1: family's way of trying to get him out of the

1335
01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:28,639
Speaker 1: relationship and being like, Okay, he's made it far enough,

1336
01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:31,040
Speaker 1: now let's back out. That was the plan that he

1337
01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:34,280
Speaker 1: was going to back out. There's so much here, Ashley,

1338
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:37,320
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with you. There's so much here from

1339
01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:39,120
Speaker 1: these hometowns that we can take away. For the first

1340
01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:40,679
Speaker 1: time in a few seasons, I feel like the hometowns

1341
01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:43,800
Speaker 1: are really pointing to what the next few episodes could

1342
01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:46,760
Speaker 1: look like in wood Luck, Like, one interesting email we

1343
01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:49,040
Speaker 1: got from a listener to Laney says, promos that are

1344
01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:51,240
Speaker 1: ruining this season. I want to talk about the social

1345
01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:54,960
Speaker 1: media promos. I'm starting to feel like when Hannah and

1346
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:57,360
Speaker 1: Chris Harrison promote the episodes, they basically tell us where

1347
01:10:57,400 --> 01:10:59,760
Speaker 1: they're going, who's going? The dates, and where the dates

1348
01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:01,360
Speaker 1: are are? The only things left out seemed to be

1349
01:11:01,400 --> 01:11:03,559
Speaker 1: who was sent home? I know they want to promote

1350
01:11:03,600 --> 01:11:06,400
Speaker 1: the show, but does anyone else miss the days where

1351
01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:08,400
Speaker 1: everything was a surprise and we didn't even know what

1352
01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:10,800
Speaker 1: the country they're going to. Maybe they're trying to keep

1353
01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:14,720
Speaker 1: up with reality, Steve, I do think that's a possibility.

1354
01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:18,639
Speaker 1: I also think, um that, pointing back to our final

1355
01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:21,479
Speaker 1: conversation about Jed, is there so much going to happen

1356
01:11:21,560 --> 01:11:25,600
Speaker 1: this season that they haven't really ruined anything? Okay? I

1357
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,840
Speaker 1: really believe that. Um, actually I believe you if you

1358
01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:32,240
Speaker 1: that's what you say. Final thoughts. We broke down each

1359
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:37,400
Speaker 1: each hometown. Uh, Peters was pretty normal, really good, really healthy.

1360
01:11:37,800 --> 01:11:41,120
Speaker 1: Tyler's was emotional, We got to know him better, We

1361
01:11:41,280 --> 01:11:44,480
Speaker 1: enjoyed it. It left well. Luke's was still a little confusing.

1362
01:11:44,840 --> 01:11:47,120
Speaker 1: It was his best week by far. He was more

1363
01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:49,800
Speaker 1: likable than he wasn't. But there's still things that we

1364
01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:51,360
Speaker 1: don't know about Luke that we will get to know

1365
01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:53,479
Speaker 1: very soon. And I'm sure, I'm sure we'll get to

1366
01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:57,320
Speaker 1: know a lot about Luke's own personal feelings and values

1367
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:00,800
Speaker 1: in the next following weeks, and finally, Jed is just one.

1368
01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:02,280
Speaker 1: It's hard for us to process. I mean, how are

1369
01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:03,640
Speaker 1: we going to process a guy that we know how

1370
01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:05,320
Speaker 1: to girlfriend leading up to the show. How are we

1371
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:10,240
Speaker 1: gonna even at any level enjoy any sweet nothings? He

1372
01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:13,800
Speaker 1: says or sings to Hannah and his family. Let's take

1373
01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:15,720
Speaker 1: let's give him a break, Like I totally get it.

1374
01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:19,360
Speaker 1: Let's let's not put them, uh responsible for the terrible

1375
01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:23,160
Speaker 1: decisions that Jed has made leading up to this experience, Ashley,

1376
01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:26,400
Speaker 1: after this week, Uh, can you rank these four guys

1377
01:12:26,439 --> 01:12:28,400
Speaker 1: and then tell us who your favorite for next Bachelor is?

1378
01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:39,320
Speaker 1: Tyler Peter? I don't know that's right. Everybody stayed because

1379
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:43,720
Speaker 1: she was like Tyler Peter. Yeah, I don't know. Well,

1380
01:12:43,800 --> 01:12:47,360
Speaker 1: let's talk about that that rose ceremony really quickly. How

1381
01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:51,120
Speaker 1: did you feel about her? Um, just deciding to take

1382
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:53,599
Speaker 1: everyone to Fantasy Sweets. I thought it was a great idea.

1383
01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:57,360
Speaker 1: I think that Fantasy Sweet Sweeks is usually the week

1384
01:12:57,400 --> 01:12:59,800
Speaker 1: that you learned the most about somebody. Alone time is

1385
01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:03,000
Speaker 1: really critical, as we've talked about before on this podcast

1386
01:13:03,080 --> 01:13:06,800
Speaker 1: many times. And Um, I feel like if she really

1387
01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:10,240
Speaker 1: is so torn, I feel like they should never have

1388
01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:14,519
Speaker 1: to eliminate somebody. If, like she said, she didn't feel

1389
01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:17,439
Speaker 1: like the relationship would have been complete, she would have

1390
01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:21,080
Speaker 1: been left wondering what if. And I think that what

1391
01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:23,720
Speaker 1: we should do in life is eliminated as many what

1392
01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:27,679
Speaker 1: ifs as possible. Yeah, I agree, and I think it's fair.

1393
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:29,840
Speaker 1: I'm not mad at her at all for keeping people around.

1394
01:13:29,880 --> 01:13:33,400
Speaker 1: I think it's it's gets it. There's too much confusion still, uh,

1395
01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:35,400
Speaker 1: Jed's hometown date was so confused to her that she

1396
01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:37,000
Speaker 1: was like, wait, I love this guy. Like this guy.

1397
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:39,560
Speaker 1: I was falling in love with him, and now I'm confused.

1398
01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:41,599
Speaker 1: Luke's was like, I kind of liked him more after

1399
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:43,320
Speaker 1: going to his hometown, and yet this guy has been

1400
01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:45,120
Speaker 1: a puzzle piece the whole time that I just can't crack.

1401
01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:46,639
Speaker 1: And the other two or like, of course they're gonna

1402
01:13:46,640 --> 01:13:48,720
Speaker 1: be around. I like them both, So no, I think

1403
01:13:48,760 --> 01:13:52,439
Speaker 1: it's fair keep him around. It just makes it more fun. Uh.

1404
01:13:52,640 --> 01:13:55,759
Speaker 1: In the following weeks of Fantasy speaking, but what about

1405
01:13:55,920 --> 01:14:00,920
Speaker 1: the inner the moment that we saw Jed react to

1406
01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:03,160
Speaker 1: the fact that he was so torn that she was

1407
01:14:03,280 --> 01:14:07,720
Speaker 1: so torn in that moment, like he didn't respond very well.

1408
01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:12,320
Speaker 1: He was like, oh, she's she's putting me and Luke

1409
01:14:12,400 --> 01:14:17,600
Speaker 1: on the same ranking. Right now, it makes sense to me.

1410
01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:19,960
Speaker 1: I mean I see it from an outsider's perspective. I

1411
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 1: don't know how he was feeling internally, but I'm looking

1412
01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:23,920
Speaker 1: at as as a viewer, going, yeah, they're definitely on

1413
01:14:23,960 --> 01:14:25,960
Speaker 1: the same ranking. We're both just confused by him, like

1414
01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:28,800
Speaker 1: we just don't even know anymore. So but that I

1415
01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:30,920
Speaker 1: don't find him getting upset. Do you think that. I

1416
01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:36,840
Speaker 1: feel like, honestly, they that was a move because they

1417
01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:39,560
Speaker 1: knew that Jed would be the most sensitive about that.

1418
01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:42,639
Speaker 1: I don't think the family turned hand off that much.

1419
01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:47,840
Speaker 1: I think they knew that Tyler and Pete kind of

1420
01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:52,719
Speaker 1: they've been so even killed, calm and coolheaded the entire time.

1421
01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:55,759
Speaker 1: If they were going to get a reaction from someone,

1422
01:14:57,320 --> 01:15:02,400
Speaker 1: it would have been Jed against U. Yeah. Like, I

1423
01:15:02,479 --> 01:15:06,360
Speaker 1: feel like, truly Jed belongs with the other three, and

1424
01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:08,920
Speaker 1: like the only the one that would have been eliminated

1425
01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:11,519
Speaker 1: in that moment would have been Luke. I don't think

1426
01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:14,200
Speaker 1: they're in the same category in Hannah's head. The good

1427
01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:16,439
Speaker 1: part is now for next week that none of them

1428
01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:18,400
Speaker 1: will interact and so we'll see all three of them,

1429
01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:21,760
Speaker 1: four of them separately. Uh, Jed just got has to

1430
01:15:21,800 --> 01:15:24,400
Speaker 1: get over himself and move on. And I think fantasy

1431
01:15:24,439 --> 01:15:26,719
Speaker 1: suitets will be telling to see where their relationships stand.

1432
01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:29,040
Speaker 1: I don't know at this point. As I said, I'm

1433
01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:30,880
Speaker 1: kind of like Jed's family. I feel like I'm just

1434
01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:33,599
Speaker 1: confused at what's happening, Like how has he gone this far?

1435
01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:37,960
Speaker 1: Keeping playing music the whole time, and at the same

1436
01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:40,400
Speaker 1: time of all of it, he has a girl back home.

1437
01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:42,280
Speaker 1: I don't know how to process this. And then with Luke,

1438
01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:44,160
Speaker 1: Luke has been a mystery of the whole season. We

1439
01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:46,960
Speaker 1: were talking four weeks ago about why he's still around. Yeah,

1440
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:49,720
Speaker 1: he's still around. And now we're finally saying we're at

1441
01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:52,320
Speaker 1: some time point saying it kind of makes sense like

1442
01:15:52,439 --> 01:15:56,320
Speaker 1: she's still interested and intrigued. The next few weeks. Actually,

1443
01:15:56,760 --> 01:15:59,599
Speaker 1: I'm pumped for Uh, we're gonna continue breaking down. We're

1444
01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:01,720
Speaker 1: not thinking any more weeks off until this whole thing

1445
01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:03,680
Speaker 1: is done. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if we

1446
01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:05,840
Speaker 1: pump out, you know, two episodes at some point, just

1447
01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:07,720
Speaker 1: because it's so much fun to talk. I think we

1448
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:11,639
Speaker 1: do have two episodes coming up, I think an extra bonus.

1449
01:16:12,280 --> 01:16:16,320
Speaker 1: That's right, as ash Um, you're the best. What a

1450
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:19,880
Speaker 1: great week for Bachelor Nation, What a great week for hometowns? Uh?

1451
01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:26,240
Speaker 1: In your opinion? Uh, who's the next Bachelor? I mean

1452
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:29,240
Speaker 1: I would hope that who I want to be the

1453
01:16:29,360 --> 01:16:33,759
Speaker 1: next bachelor Hannah ends up with, which would be Tyler, Okay,

1454
01:16:34,080 --> 01:16:36,400
Speaker 1: but I also like he's my choice for bachelor, and

1455
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:40,799
Speaker 1: he's my choice for Hannah. I think Tyler is probably

1456
01:16:41,120 --> 01:16:43,080
Speaker 1: most people's choice for the next Bachelor, but I also

1457
01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:47,120
Speaker 1: think he might be with Hannah. But um, I feel

1458
01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:51,080
Speaker 1: like the an ideal world would probably be Hannah ends

1459
01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:54,839
Speaker 1: up with Tyler and then Peter becomes the bachelor. Ashley,

1460
01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:57,880
Speaker 1: I hope that for the rest of your life you

1461
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:00,960
Speaker 1: can live in your own ideal world. That's what I hope.

1462
01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:03,439
Speaker 1: That's what I hope for all of our listeners. Hey,

1463
01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:05,960
