Speaker 4: so so like we got done. This is where like

24
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 4: I always believe that the show was like gentle nudging

25
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 4: and it wasn't this like conspiracy that everyone thinks that

26
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 4: like they're telling you what to do and I was

27
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 4: proven right because that we get done and Mel's like,

28
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,959

00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 4: this was like a real deal.

78
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 3: I'm not like just being a shill for the show.

79
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 4: I'm like, yeah, this guy wanted to go out with Nicole,

80
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 4: and he did. And I got to say, on that

81
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 4: date when I watched it afterwards, Nicole like in him,

82
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 4: like got whisked away. They go right on their date

83
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 4: and she questioned him in the way we wanted him

84
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 4: to be questioned, like she did actually a good I

85
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 4: thought she was a great date.

86
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, he commended her.

87
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 6: I was like she was totally relentless in her line

88
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 6: of questioning and like the best way, because he's not

89
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 6: a naturally open person, Like you needed Nicole in there.

90
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 2: You needed to set that girl in.

91
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 3: What are you?

92
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on Nicole after Like for the

93
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: rest of the season.

94
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 4: I will say I think Nicole is she's first of all,

95
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 4: she's the most openly here for the wrong reasons person

96
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 4: I've ever seen.

97
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: Fun I mean wild like talk about just like like

98
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: like not hiding it at all, Like it almost felt

99
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: like she was. It felt like it felt like she

100
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: was like, oh, we're all like on the same page.

101
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 1: This is this is bullshit.

102
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 4: I'll actually give her the same empathy I gave to

103
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 4: mel which is I think she's never really watched a

104
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 4: dating show. I think she is like Kelly Rippa, where

105
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 4: like Kelly Rippa like seemingly has never watched a dating

106
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 4: show and then thinks less of people on a dating show.

107
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 4: I think Nicole is probably from that world where she

108
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 4: watches a ton of bra but no dating shows. So

109
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 4: she thinks she knows reality TV, but she doesn't know

110
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 4: this version of reality TV like for her right, it's

111
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 4: totally different. And she thought, like when she said I

112
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 4: want to be the Golden Bachelorette, like I want to

113
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 4: be the next one, she thought drama and screen time

114
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 4: will get her that.

115
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 3: And it's like, that's not the key. We have to

116
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 3: cheer for you.

117
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 4: We have to want you to find love, and we

118
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 4: have to like, we have to see ourselves in you

119
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:29,679
Speaker 4: and people.

120
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 3: I think she didn't see.

121
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 4: I think the game she was playing was get camera time,

122
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 4: and I think that is very That's a tight wire

123
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 4: act that she didn't understand. Like I mean for her

124
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 4: to hug and kiss everyone about how much they love

125
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,840
Speaker 4: them as she's getting kicked off the show and then

126
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 4: look at the camera and go, yeah, if you want

127
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:55,799
Speaker 4: to go fucking Miami.

128
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: You can meet me because it's not gonna work out

129
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 3: with these other chicks.

130
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 6: Why, you know what, she is a shameless opportunist, and

131
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 6: I actually do like that about her, Like I find

132
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 6: that characteristic interesting, Like I find her an interesting watch

133
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 6: because she is so shameless about her intentions and her

134
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 6: goals and like.

135
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 2: That's unique to me.

136
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I mean when she said that, I was like,

137
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: oh wow, she just said yeah.

138
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 4: Well, but the problem with like, you know, I guess

139
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 4: like she comes from this like never apologize part of

140
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 4: society that I don't really relate to a lot where

141
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 4: it's like if you ever apologize, or for you ever

142
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 4: come back from where you went, you will you lose.

143
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 4: She's like and you're like, oh, she's just out there

144
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 4: and never coming back, Like she's never going to you know,

145
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 4: say like oh, like when she starts like saying like, well,

146
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 4: I'm the one that like you know, made it so

147
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 4: everyone else could I walk so they could run, it's

148
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 4: like get out of here. But it's like she's now

149
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 4: doubling down that, and I think, like especially when she

150
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 4: got in the car and she was like, maybe I'll

151
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 4: be the next Golden bats Arette, Like you're like, no,

152
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 4: you're not, Like it's not gonna have Like I think

153
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 4: you're gonna have to like argue with people in the

154
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 4: comments for the rest of your life, like you know,

155
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 4: one of them being Susan and Kathy, who are like

156
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 4: literally like you know, foaming at the mouth to like,

157
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 4: you know, talk to you about how you said you

158
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 4: were hotter than last season.

159
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I said, right when she said that, I said,

160
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: Kathy is gonna not like that. Yeah, let's jump to hometowns.

161
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: Go to the first hometown, which was Peg Firehouse Bomb Squad.

162
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: Her daughter was great. Uh, all your thoughts.

163
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 3: Here's my thoughts.

164
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 4: Peg looked like she was out of a Maxim magazine

165
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 4: shoot from the early two thousands. We're at the you know,

166
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 4: the firehouse, and she's on the pole and she's doing

167
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 4: like Peg is just like fun and awesome and unrelatable

168
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 4: to me.

169
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 3: Like it's like, you know, she's having a beer.

170
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 4: She doesn't care about calories, She goes to fun Jim classes,

171
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 4: she dances at every every time a song comes on.

172
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 4: The daughter was protective in a way that like it

173
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 4: was fun to watch Mel spar with a daughter because

174
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 4: he's a guy with two sons. So you watched him

175
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 4: in the conversations showed he had nothing, and it's like

176
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,679
Speaker 4: Mel is talking. You know, mel Is thinks he's twenty

177
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 4: seven forever, and Mel thinks he's young. And Mel doesn't

178
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 4: have a clock, and mel is gonna work until he's

179
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 4: one hundred and three and you're gonna go, Mel, do

180
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,719
Speaker 4: you really think you'll work till hundred and three and

181
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 4: he's gonna go. I haven't really thought of I guess

182
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 4: I would be old at the hundred and three. Like,

183
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 4: so Mel isn't sitting there being like the stakes are high,

184
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 4: and the stakes are high for PEG's daughter. The stakes

185
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 4: are high for Peg, and PEG's trying to be fun

186
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 4: and affable the whole thing. But like the daughter was like, hey,

187
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 4: like yo, she's looking to like chill with someone, Like

188
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 4: she's looking to like, you know, like are you doing this?

189
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 4: And like Mel's reaction to that was just like it was.

190
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 4: It was just Mel as a guy.

191
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 2: I guess we'll see. I don't know, we'll see.

192
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 6: Like he is, so he's the least committal bachelor I've

193
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 6: seen in a while. Like everything about him screams casual

194
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 6: and non committal to both being The Bachelor and anything

195
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 6: post show. Right also liked when the daughter was like,

196
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 6: tell me what you know and have learned about my mom?

197
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 2: Like what do you like about her?

198
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 6: And it was just one word answers after no, you

199
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,319
Speaker 6: could tell the daughter was like, what is going on?

200
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 3: Well, well, we were watching it.

201
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 1: We were watching I was like, bring back, bring back Clayton,

202
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: like we need we need a Clayton back, because he was.

203
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 6: We need an overshare after a season of Mel.

204
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 4: I think Mel's never used a semicolon in his entire life, Like,

205
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 4: he's never had a sentence go longer than three words,

206
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 4: like it is.

207
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 3: And And I don't think he's a.

208
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 4: Manipulative I think he's just like this is what you get, Like, yeah,

209
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 4: we're gonna hang out, We're gonna have fun.

210
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 3: I don't know what you're talking about.

211
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 6: He doesn't strike me as manipulative, right. I think he

212
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 6: genuinely means what he's saying.

213
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: I mean he more he's just like, yeah, like how

214
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: do you feel He's like I feel good?

215
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 4: I wrote down he a quote of his was I

216
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 4: liked being married.

217
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 3: That's his response to the woman. It's like okay to

218
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 3: the daughter of the woman.

219
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: Honestly though, my god, I could see myself kind of.

220
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 4: Right, like I guess like I, yeah, I wouldn't know

221
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,719
Speaker 4: how to deal with the daughter. Also, like I I

222
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 4: felt for him if anything else.

223
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 6: At the same time, I'm like, he's on a TV show,

224
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 6: like he's he's getting prepped or he's having time to

225
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 6: prep himself, but he was never.

226
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 1: He was never you know. It's also he was never

227
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: on the show, like he just became the lead. So

228
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: it does make it. It is kind of like his

229
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: first goal.

230
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 4: Round you you are a little bit trained by the audience.

231
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 3: You know, the comments of the audience.

232
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 4: You're trained on what not to say, so you don't

233
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 4: have to hear from that loser anymore, you know, so

234
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 4: like he doesn't even know that, like and you can

235
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 4: see like he he just didn't have the tools in

236
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 4: the tool belt. Like it was like and and you're

237
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 4: dealing and even like PEG's mom she made a comment

238
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 4: where she was like it was like weirdly sad.

239
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 3: She's like, do you think this is gonna work?

240
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 4: I was just like, oho, Nos, it hasn't worked out before,

241
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,959
Speaker 4: Like she had like a weird quote.

242
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 1: Do you like him and Peg together? Though?

243
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 3: Do you see I do, but Peg, you know, to me,

244
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 3: he'd be buying into.

245
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 4: Like Peg does more for him than she does, or

246
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 4: does more for him than he does for her.

247
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 3: Okay, Like I think Peg is gonna be like get

248
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 3: you know.

249
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 4: I can see them in a wedding and he's talking

250
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 4: with five other guys about Michigan football and she comes over.

251
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 3: Him and grabs him and goes, get up.

252
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 4: We're dancing, and he probably needs that more than he

253
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 4: knows he needs that.

254
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 1: Yeah.

255
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 4: So because he thinks, no, I'm gonna live until the

256
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty two, I can sit her and

257
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 4: talk Michigan football.

258
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 3: I got time.

259
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: Well, the most comfortable I saw him was I think

260
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: it was Dab's hometown when he was throwing the football

261
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: with the two brothers. Right, that was when he was

262
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: like having a conversation where he felt like he was

263
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 1: like in his.

264
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:53,839
Speaker 3: Element element Yeah, yeah, yeah. I I I like Peg.

265
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 4: I'm like, you know, like she's a likable, fun person

266
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 4: like yeah, I and the daughter was like her like

267
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:04,319
Speaker 4: security guard.

268
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

269
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 2: I love her and I love her daughter.

270
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 1: Okay, So then we let's go to Deb's hometown, which

271
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: we see at the end of the episode.

272
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 4: If Deb hasn't isn't the next Bachelor, Golden Bachelor.

273
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: I thought he was going to pick her. I really

274
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: thought he was going to pick her.

275
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 4: I thought so too. I mean her, it's a tough

276
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 4: hill to climb over. Deb reminds everyone that she's never

277
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,959
Speaker 4: been married, has no kids, fourteen years since she brought.

278
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 3: A guy home.

279
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, every time she's on camera, so there's a point

280
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 4: where you're like, I don't want to devastate this person.

281
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 3: Like if I were in mel shoes, I'd be like.

282
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 3: She keeps bringing it up that like like I I

283
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 3: don't want to be the next person.

284
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 4: And she tells like an amazing story of tragic story

285
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 4: about her ex, and it's really sad. That's not even

286
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 4: part of it for me, like to me, like she

287
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,439
Speaker 4: holds that with her and she you know, it seems

288
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 4: as though she like you know, that's part of her

289
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:05,719
Speaker 4: I know it's part of her story, but like as

290
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,079
Speaker 4: far as like to like dig in with her, that's

291
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 4: not really part of the story to me. But she

292
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,959
Speaker 4: brings up fourteen like fourteen years never bring someone home,

293
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 4: Like how about you just say.

294
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 3: It's been a while? Like like I like, you know,

295
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 3: like how.

296
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 4: About you say, like, and I just think deb she

00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 4: people who have have have kind of like gone a

301
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 4: different way. So like, I think the audience seasoned dead man,

302
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 4: I've been married for you guys are married. Oh okay, okay,

303
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 4: a little defensive about being called a.

304
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 3: Sense to your offense.

305
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: Category, Jared, I'm.

306
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,320

309
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:03,760

Speaker 1: Yeah.

312
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 6: I feel like what's interesting is if Debbie does become

313
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 6: the Golden bachel Rat, which I could totally see because

314
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 6: I agree. I feel like they've really beat this story

315
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 6: to death with her and like playoff ofissed. But it's

316
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 6: interesting if they go in that direction because that really

317
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 6: aligns with the stories of the regular seasons of The Battery.

318
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 6: And I feel like this season has melded into the

319
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 6: regular season more than Gary season. So like we had

320
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 6: Gary and Jones season, which was very focused on like

321
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 6: the Golden Years, and this season feels so much more

322
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 6: aligned with the regular season. It's I keep saying, like

323
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 6: it's giving, just like my hot aunts, you know, like

324
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 6: doing and then we're gonna go someone that's never been married,

325
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 6: has never had children. It's like, well, what really differentiates

326
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 6: these two.

327
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 1: My aunt and uncle? And Gary was like, that's my

328
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: that's my great grandfather. Jo.

329
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 4: I just I think she's the reason the show is successful.

330
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 4: Like I think, like theyre need a third bachelor, they

331
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 4: need forty year old woman with older men like that,

332
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 4: because I do think a lot of the.

333
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 6: Difference between these women and like forty year old women

334
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 6: is not going to be substantially different.

335
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 3: Do you think That's My point?

336
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 4: Is like that's why Debbie, Like she's easy to like,

337
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 4: and you know, she's the reason that like a lot

338
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 4: of people are watching her going I you know, because

339
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 4: a lot of women and I hear from women a lot,

340
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 4: just because I do dating podcasts, Like a lot of

341
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 4: them say they're old at twenty one, Like a woman

342
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 4: turns twenty one and then all of a sudden, she's

343
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 4: the grandma and she's old forever, like and it's like,

344
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 4: that's not how we see it how I see it.

345
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 4: But if you're watching Debbie saying I've never been married,

346
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 4: I don't have kids. If you're thirty six at home

347
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 4: and you've never been married you don't have kids, you're

348
00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 4: feeling the same way as her, right, you know, she's

349
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 4: very relatable. So I don't know if they made her

350
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 4: the Golden bachel would almost being an insult to her

351
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 4: because like to call her golden is like only the

352
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 4: only issue because you're like, I mean, she's she's there's

353
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 4: no gold.

354
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 3: In there, you know, like it doesn't you know. So

355
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 3: I don't know. I like Debbie.

356
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 4: I she comes home with the family. The family is

357
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 4: like so excited for her. Like again, this is all

358
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 4: stuff that would scare the shit at me. I'm like, oh,

359
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 4: this family, like they are.

360
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 2: Really a lot of pressure.

361
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 3: Well yeah, I like this family.

362
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 4: Like the brothers are here, they're like that, you know,

363
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 4: like you know, the sisters and they're all like, we

364
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 4: really like you. And it's like like like if i'm Mel,

365
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 4: there's a good thing where like you'd be the you know,

366
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 4: knight in shining armor. Yeah, but also don't fuck with

367
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 4: these people, Mel, Like like I think that was like

368
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 4: kind ofly the takeaway.

369
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 6: You know what we thought about Debbie is I think

370
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 6: it's like up in the air about Mel's interest in

371
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 6: willingness to compromise relationship. I just like don't know where

372
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 6: he stands on that. And Debbie is childless and seems

373
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 6: like she is like flexible in terms of where she

374
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 6: could live, Like you don't think so like it's he's

375
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 6: gonna move with me, and like like, lean, I have

376
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 6: a bet.

377
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 4: I agree with everything you're saying, But I don't think

378
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 4: that makes Debbie the best option for him. I think

379
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,160
Speaker 4: that's why Cindy's like the best option for him.

380
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 1: I think Sidney's the best option for him too. After

381
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 1: watching her, we'll go jump to her hometown now. But

382
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,120
Speaker 1: after watching that hometown, I was like, oh yeah, like right,

383
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: she well likes what he's seeing here Cindy.

384
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 3: When I was at.

385
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 4: The the taping, Cindy was like in him, like yeah,

386
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,880
Speaker 4: she was already like smitten.

387
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: And oh on the roads date, well, she was from

388
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: night from day one.

389
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 6: So she was like we actually we didn't know if

390
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 6: she would be able to handle the process because she

391
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 6: was so smitten so fast. We were like, oh no,

392
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 6: I wonder if she's gonna like get jealous and like

393
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 6: up her spot.

394
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 2: But she she cooled.

395
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 3: Yeah she's she's also you know, smarter than the average bear.

396
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 3: She she's like a.

397
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 2: Chemical medical engineer.

398
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah she and and yeah, like.

399
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 6: He definitely likes like the intellectual women. I feel like

400
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 6: all of them have really been super sharp.

401
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, everyone's a catch for him. Like I mean, did

402
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 4: you see his house? It had seven pots and pans

403
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 4: in the in the sink that haven't been washed. Like

404
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 4: he's like, remember do you remember when they went home

405
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 4: with him with the boys?

406
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, seeing that his kitchen was a mess, like this guy,

407
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 7: like it was like crazy, can you imagine, Like, yeah,

408
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 7: they're coming over to tape today and there was six

409
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 7: pans just in the sink.

410
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 3: Like what I can't believe. I'm telling you. It was

411
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 3: like disgusting. Like it's like, dude, get a housekeeper, you know.

412
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 3: Like so it's like I think, and I'm not saying

00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 3: these women are going to clean his house.

414

Speaker 4: than him, Like yeah, you know, so yeah, so Debbie,

416
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 4: I don't know, Like Debbie is flexible, but like her

417
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 4: life is flexible. But I don't know, I think Debbie's

418
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:25,199
Speaker 4: kind of like a stronger willed person. M like it

419
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 4: would and I don't. I hope that doesn't sound bad

451
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 4: when Mel talked to the two son.

452
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,000

Speaker 6: Well, he also only sat he sat down with two

459
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 6: of the daughters, which I'm assuming are the youngest in

460
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 6: the middle, and then he sat down with what she

461
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 6: was very much giving like eldest daughter energy who she

462
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 6: was kind of giving similar vibes to PEG's daughter, where

463
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 6: she was like I don't know.

464
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 4: Right, she got harder on him, But it was when

465
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 4: he sat with the son in laws talking about, oh,

466
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,840

00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 4: have like, he must have made that happen.

470
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 3: I'll go talk with the guys. Yeah, yeah, we can

471
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,159
Speaker 3: go talk so funny.

472
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, So overall, overall, what is your takeaway from hometown?

473
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 1: So we got we got two women left? Who do

474
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 1: you who do you think he's gonna choose?

475
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 4: I think he goes with Sydney, just because I think he,

476
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 4: you know, Mel, even when question gives nothing up. I

477
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 4: think Peg is gonna ask harder questions than Cindy.

478
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 3: And I think Mel Mel who I know, it took

479
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 3: us an hour to get to this point. He's a

480
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:25,120
Speaker 3: nice guy. I like Mel. It's just Mel gonna do Mel.

481
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 4: Like Mel is like, like Mel's whole story about his divorce,

482
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 4: which he hasn't gone into beyond the papers were on

483
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 4: the kitchen table and I just signed, like, dude, what's

484
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 4: the story there?

485
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 3: He never gives anything. And I think.

486
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: He's a private person, so.

487
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 2: To his body like they're going nowhere.

488
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,400
Speaker 1: He's a private person who just so happened to stumble

489
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 1: into being the Bachelor.

490
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 2: It's so interesting to me because it's like I feel like,

491
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,160
Speaker 2: on one hand, he he.

492
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 6: Clearly values the experience and wanted to be the bachelor,

493
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 6: and he signed up willingly. There's something about this experience

494
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 6: that he wanted, wanted to gain from. But on the

495
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 6: other hand, he's like the most reluctant bachelor I've ever seen,

496
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 6: where he's like, like you said, Mel's gonna do Mel,

497
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 6: Like he's not gonna talk about things doesn't want to

498
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 6: talk about like openness and vulnerability earn on the table,

499
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 6: Like I don't know how he feels about any of

500
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 6: these women, Like I can tell from like body language

501
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 6: and interactions that he likes Cindy and peg and he's

502
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,640
Speaker 6: excited about them, Like I haven't been surprised by any eliminations,

503
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 6: but verbally there's been like no reassurance happening.

504
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's absolutely wild. It's you're absolutely right, I

505
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:46,199
Speaker 4: I And and that's why Cindy like she's gonna like

506
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 4: I think she's gonna allow for it more than peg Wood.

507
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, and I think she's just very like hard eyed

508
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 6: for Mel, like I really think and I do think

509
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 6: they have a connection.

510
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:59,119
Speaker 4: No, no, no, this isn't like Listen, I've seen couples with

511
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 4: less connection and become married and have kids and do

512
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 4: the whole thing, like and the beauty of this show

513
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 4: is like there is like they're going off to date,

514
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 4: Like I think like it would the Bachelor would be

515
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 4: better off if it was in that you know world

516
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 4: of like, well, what's next, kids, and like like I'm

517
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 4: sure you guys get this. You've been married four years.

518
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 4: You know everyone's probably on you. What's next, what's next?

519
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 4: What's next?

520
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: You know?

521
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 3: For Mellon, whoever he chooses, what's next is, I mean.

522
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 4: We got to figure out how we're gonna do this

523
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 4: whole thing, and they're just gonna like, you know, do.

524
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 2: You think he'll get engaged?

525
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 4: No?

526
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:38,640
Speaker 6: I don't think so either. I don't think he's good.

527
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 6: I don't think I do you think he'll get engaged.

528
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 3: I think he won't because he's like.

529
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 2: I don't even tell them. He likes them right, like, and.

530
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,160
Speaker 4: I think he's got the backbone to say the production.

531
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 4: I mean in the same way when he's like I'm

532
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 4: going with Nicole, We're going on a date, like he

533
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 4: has the backbone and be like, no, I'm not.

534
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 3: Doing that, Like I think that would be like very

537
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 4: they can move into my house. I think there's like

538
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 4: a few pots and pans in the kitchen sink, but

539
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:10,920
