I 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: am in Beaver Creek, Colorado right now. I took the 10 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 1: day um to ski a little bit. So if anybody's 11 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: wondering where I'm at, or if anybody comes into yell 12 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: to tell me to get out of the lobby, Um, 13 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 1: why are you a skier? His skiing ability is good. 14 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,840 Speaker 1: I can say that I've seen that confident skier. Yeah, 15 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: we see that on Winter Games. Yeah. So um, anyways, hey, 16 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: let's move in. I know this week was the crazy episode. Actually, uh, 17 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: like always, you are the expert. Please give us your 18 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: run down. Okay, So our first day is a group day. 19 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: It's a wrestling day. I think it may have been 20 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: the worst day ever, or at least the worst day 21 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: the date that I would least ever want to be 22 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:15,839 Speaker 1: on um, I would have had completely good yes, because Bibby, 23 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 1: you know, you call her no chill Bibby or whatever, 24 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: even though we all know that I love Babby. She 25 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 1: she was like the only one who was like, this 26 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: is bull Oh I can't say, you know what I mean? 27 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: And then like we had those evil wrestler ladies divas 28 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: from the eighties and everybody was like the two ladies 29 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: were expecting the girls to know who they are and 30 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: they were just given. They were so kindcending. She made 31 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: fun of Bibby's name, like what She's like, what did 32 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: your mom? What was she thinking calling you Bibby on us? 33 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: She's like, what kind of name is that? Ben? Did 34 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: you find the wrestling sexy or goofy uh? You know, 35 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: I don't think it I could call it sexy. I 36 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: think it was weird. I think the whole thing is weird. 37 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: I think actually is right. I mean, it's kind of 38 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: goes back to when I was in the Battoort. We 39 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: did a a boxing day, and any time on this 40 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: show that you force aggression out of anybody, there's already 41 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: so much built up anger in general that it just 42 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: gets awkward fast. And I guess maybe that's what the 43 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: show wants. Oh yeah, And I think that they continuously 44 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: put Bibby in these situations where, you know, we know 45 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 1: that she can't She's like the emotional one who can't 46 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: deal with BS, and they keep testing her and you 47 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: can really see that in this wrestling portion of the 48 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: to bring out her no chill. Yeah, absolutely, they know 49 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: exactly how the Yeah do you think Bibiana is in 50 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: the wrong during the from the first three episodes leading 51 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: up until obviously this one, has she been in the 52 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: wrong or do you find that you're agreeing with a 53 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: lot of her attitude? What do you mean? I agree 54 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: with everything she's done? Okay, I was gonna say I 55 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: do as well. And I think she's just seeing through 56 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: the craziness that is the show. Oh absolutely. She and 57 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: I are so similar in the way that if she 58 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: sees BS, she needs to call it out like she 59 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: cannot help herself. You know. Yeah, I think she does 60 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: it a little bit more more than me, and but 61 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 1: I yes, I think that is spot on. I think 62 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 1: when she sees something that she doesn't appreciate or when 63 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: she doesn't agree with, she has to speak up. And 64 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: I think that's why we love her, and that's why, 65 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: in my opinion, she is such a good person to 66 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: have on the show because she is relaying what a 67 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: lot of people feel that our contestans on the show, 68 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: but a lot of people don't have the courage to 69 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: say anything. Oh yeah, and she's able to articulate her 70 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: feelings really well. She's a little aggressive for me, you think, so, 71 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: she's a little tad. So this is the difference between 72 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: me and Bibbie is that I think we both have 73 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: that need to express how we feel and like the 74 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: wrongness of a situation. But I do it like emotionally, 75 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: in like a sensitive crying way, and she doesn't in 76 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: a really feisty way, a little bit of a chip 77 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: on her shoulder. Yeah, I feel like she's never been 78 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: rejected until last night. I don't know I got that, 79 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: Like really, Okay, let's move on from Bibby for a second. So, 80 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: of course, Chris Harrison says, we have a surprise. There's 81 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: so many surprises this season. And then Kenny from Rachel 82 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: season comes on and he wrestles Ari, and we all 83 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: know that they had to of course manipulate the situation 84 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: to make it that Ari somehow be the professional wrestler here, 85 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: um Ari just so out of his element? You guys, 86 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: are you know what's funny? Though? He is this this 87 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: whole thing, he's being out of his element. He then, So, 88 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: I have had so many girls come up to me 89 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: and say they love Ari. Yes, have you guys been 90 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: experiencing that? No, that's so weird. I haven't. Who like, what? Like? 91 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 1: What kind of a girl like Amy? Are you talking 92 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: like women who are a little older? Bens right on 93 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: point with that. They're all forty or older? Okay, yes, 94 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: So my mom has one of our family friends over 95 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: to watch the episode every week, and she's she didn't 96 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: even watch Emily season, but she's like, oh, I love Ari. 97 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 1: Ari's my man, like all this weird stuff. And then 98 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: when I walked into Access Hollywood after the first episode, 99 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: Kid Hoover and Natalie Morales we're like, oh, we like Ari, 100 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: And I'm like, what, Well, it must be because I 101 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: have no problem saying I'm forty three. So I think 102 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: it's because we've been watching Ben. Who's are you twenty eight? Now? Ben? Yeah, 103 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: you're a lot younger than us. So I think the 104 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: older ladies that's funny, older than him. I got some 105 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: gray hair, a little baby's face bend. But I don't 106 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: understand Nikki is older than than Ari by a year. 107 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: But let's do a poll. Let's have people email us 108 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: this week if they're older the older forty plus group 109 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: guys are still young. I really, you know forty is 110 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: very useful these days. Anyway, here's the other thing I want. Okay, 111 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: so please email us with um if you're older and 112 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: you love Ari. But also I want to hear just 113 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: your thoughts on our general We haven't. I've gotten a 114 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: ton of emails on Hey, this is my feelings towards 115 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: this season of the Bachelor, so I want to hear that. 116 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: I want to read that because I'm just I mean, 117 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: before I actually continues here and break down this episode, 118 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: I'm still a little confused because I feel very distant. 119 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: I'm not into it as much as I want. So 120 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 1: please email that's been an athlete. I heart media dot 121 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: com uh to just let us know what you think, 122 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: so actually keep going. Okay, so I don't feel distant anymore. 123 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: I like the past two episodes. Episodes two and three 124 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: really warm me up because the girls are really carrying 125 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: this show, and that's cool. I think it's always about 126 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: the women. But I don't think I'm ever going to 127 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: warm up to Ari in the sense that I'm going 128 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: to be super invested in rooting for him. I think 129 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 1: it's really I think it's interesting because a lot of 130 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: people I have heard from Ben are like, why are 131 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: Ben and Ashley like poo pooing on Ari all the time? 132 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: Like why don't they get it? And I'm like, hmm, 133 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just don't get it. So I 134 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: have hard feedback. Well, I mean, I don't want to 135 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: say pop I think he's hate that express No, I 136 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: mean for who he is. I mean for what he's doing. 137 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: I think he's doing a fine Jeff. I think the 138 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: women are obviously carring this show. I just think that 139 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: there is this level that I and I don't know 140 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: what it is. He isn't as comfortable, or he maybe 141 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: isn't as confident as we would expect about to be. Now, 142 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't consider myself a very confident person, um, but 143 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: I think some of his conversations just feel like he 144 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: he's so distant, like he he isn't actually engaged in 145 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: the conversation. He's kind of just it feels like forcing 146 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: it to get through a Oh my gosh, man, I 147 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: cannot believe you said that, because I have my notes 148 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: here and this is what I wrote verbatim. He doesn't 149 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: seem super warmer, comforting. He seems to go to these 150 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: women and chat with them out of obligation. I find 151 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: if he's into you, he's into you that's true maybe, 152 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: or a no you out out like I've never seen 153 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: a Bachelor show so so much disinterest in somebody. If 154 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: he's like sitting, well, we have a guest later that 155 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: we can talk to analysis here, and he's got eliminated. 156 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: On last night's episode, she was She had some very 157 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: awkward moments. We won't sugarcoat that, but she'll definitely talk 158 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: about firsthand how already deals with girls that he's not 159 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: necessarily feeling. Did anybody else think that Lauren s was 160 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: out from the second she got out of that limo? 161 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: It was very the second she got out of the 162 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: limo limo from the show on her date. There was 163 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: something about even the first thirty seconds of that date 164 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: where there was there's a looming cloud where you just 165 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: knew that they that they were gonna not end up 166 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: together in this I don't know well before we jumped 167 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: so far forward actually continue to break down the episode. 168 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: Let's let's just give another couple of minutes here. Yeah, sorry. 169 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: Um So, first off, don't really understand how this boxing 170 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: or wrestling date works. It seems to be a theme 171 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: of this season, like last week the race car driving 172 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: day or wasn't like the demolition derby. I don't get it, 173 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: Like what was the point of that was? How did 174 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:17,839 Speaker 1: you determine a winner? And I don't know how you 175 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: determine a winner here in this wrestling date? But anyway, 176 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 1: who wins? Um does? Oh? Tia wins the Southern Bell. 177 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: She was dressed as a Southern bell and she she 178 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: quite honestly is a Southern bell. She friends with them. Yes, 179 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: So then Crystal continues to be annoying. Crystal is just 180 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: so annoying And I don't really know how to pinpoint 181 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: and describe it beyond just her voice. And it's it's 182 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: more like the fact that everything she says to Ari 183 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: looks like he's just said the most fascinating, earth shaking thing. 184 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: And I'm like, he just said, hey, han, how's your 185 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: day going? And She's like, oh my god, And and 186 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,319 Speaker 1: it's some amazing, and it's just I don't know, it's 187 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: very she's just very, very annoying. We'll again talk to 188 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: Annelie's about how Crystal is in real life, and then 189 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: we have the you know, the one on one with 190 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: Lauren s where one of the ones are so awkward. 191 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: Ben talk about how one on ones can be awkward 192 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: at the beginning of a season, even if you do 193 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: have chemistry with somebody, because it's so silent and then 194 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: you have like fifteen eyeballs just watching your every word. Yeah, 195 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's there is so at the 196 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: beginning of the season, you ask these women to go 197 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: on these special dates and and the one on ones 198 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: are meant to just really I mean, it is a 199 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: time one of the most important times of the show 200 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: because you can't really even know somebody. You have eight 201 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: hours to spend with somebody, which is all day long. 202 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 1: Not only do you do an activity, but you also 203 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 1: have at dinner. Um, they're really great, but if the 204 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 1: one on one isn't going well, which I did experience, 205 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: then you have eight hours of really a lot of 206 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 1: awkwardness and there's really no ready to help, right, I mean, 207 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: on television is really funny to watch. And so not 208 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: only do you have cameras and people standing around, you know, 209 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: recording your date, but then also those same people aren't 210 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: really helping you out to make anything less awkward. So 211 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: just imagine being put in a room that you can't leave. 212 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: You feel like you just get up and leave this 213 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: day that you can't leave for eight hours or something 214 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: that you're not that into. It's rough and this was 215 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: rough when Yeah, when you go on a regular date 216 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: in real life, you have sound around you, people talking 217 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 1: at a restaurant, you have music in the background. Just 218 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: imagine the most silent room you could you can and 219 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: then sit down with somebody that you've known for very 220 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,959 Speaker 1: little time and just have a forced conversation about the 221 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: deepest stuff you know, not about like what's your favorite movie. 222 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: Then do you fully get to pick the one on 223 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: ones or did the producers sort of suggest or guide? 224 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 1: I'm not you know how much of that is up 225 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: to the bachelor. Yeah, yeah, definitely, I mean most all 226 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 1: of it, I guess. I mean there is like some 227 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: strategic and who you're choosing and when you're choosing him. 228 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: So like, for example, uh, if I were to take 229 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: somebody on a one on one week one. I would 230 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: have to think in my head, now, this probably means 231 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 1: that I'm not gonna be able to take them on 232 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: another one on one date for another four weeks. Do 233 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: I really want to wait that long to see them 234 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: again on a one on setting? Or do I want 235 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: to maybe wait and take them on a one on 236 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 1: next week so I could take you know, because then 237 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: I know week five and we'll only have four people left, 238 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: and at four people, I'm gonna see everybody every all 239 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: the time. Um, and the producers will help you with that. 240 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just kind of like thinking through how 241 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: does the show work? But for the most part, yeah, 242 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: you get to pick and uh. And you also, you know, 243 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to I want to all to remember 244 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: too and all the fans out there. Sometimes you bring 245 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: somebody on a one on one because you're pretty confident 246 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 1: they aren't the person for you, but you but you 247 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: aren't quite sure yet, but you know that at the 248 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: end of that date you do have the option to 249 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: send them a home, and so you're not just keep 250 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: asking people to go on one once because you are 251 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: so into them. Sometimes asking it because you want to 252 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: take goodbye to him earlier yeah, that's true. Um, I 253 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: had a lot of empathy on with Lauren on this 254 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: day because she's a nervous talker. So instead of, you know, 255 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: being shy, she just kind of said anything that came 256 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: to her mind, which is what I do in those situations. 257 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: I'm I go I'm just gonna keep rambling, and he 258 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: didn't make things anymore comfortable with for her. Again, this 259 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: is like, I feel like alays biggest flaw as a bachelor. 260 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: He's seeing her nervous talking and yet he's kind of 261 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 1: like judging her for it. And then she goes, I'm 262 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: so nervous. I'm so nervous. Um, I just want to 263 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: be myself with you. And then instead of being like, okay, 264 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: let's calm down, like what's it, what's a different way 265 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 1: where we can get you to calm down and be yourself, 266 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 1: he goes, well, like, I'm really sorry that you don't 267 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: feel comfortable with me, so I think you should go home. 268 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: But I guess that being set Yeah, really about that 269 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: being said, if you aren't comfortable with somebody and it 270 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: doesn't feel natural and you are nervous talking for so long, 271 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: then you're probably just not meant to be that person 272 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 1: you don't have any natural chemistry maybe but but maybe 273 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: I mean, is an intimidating figure I would in person. 274 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: So he's a bachelor, good looking, you know, these women 275 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: have been talking about them all the time. She gets 276 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: the one opportunity to be with him, and she just 277 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: might get nervous. I get that. That's totally understandable. She 278 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: might just need a couple of hours to watch up 279 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: or And I don't know if he did this or not, 280 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: I cannot say, but I do know that one of 281 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: the most important roles at that and I've talked to 282 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: Nick about this, is to settle down nerves and set 283 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: down emotions to help the person feel but to help 284 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: the person on the date with or on you know, 285 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 1: a group date with, feel as comfortable and at ease 286 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: as possible. Because the truth is this, none of the 287 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: bachelors or the bach threat are any better than any 288 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: of the contestants. They're no different. They just have a title. 289 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: And so I think one of the most important roles 290 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: as the lead on this show is to try to 291 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: find any way to make everybody comfortable. And when you 292 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: see somebody isn't comfortable, you need to approach that because 293 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: you are leading the show, and I do need to 294 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: say one more thing. I feel bad that I said 295 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: that about Lauren, because I'm the girl who on this 296 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: show has claimed so many times I just need to 297 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: have more time with him, because like, I just need 298 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: him to be able to see my real self, and 299 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: I think it takes a while for me to come 300 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: on my shell with a guy that I like. So 301 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: I would love to Lauren, not love, that's the wrong word. 302 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: But I'm so curious if she has total regrets because 303 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: she wasn't herself and she kept saying, I'm not myself, 304 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: I'm not myself, I'm not myself, and then he breaks 305 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: up with her. All you can do is go. But 306 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: if I was myself, I wonder if he would have 307 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: liked me. Sometimes it's just that's how it goes. And 308 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 1: that's why I need a lot of time. I couldn't 309 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: have my future with somebody determined on one day. I 310 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: don't think if I, if I, that's not that's not 311 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: a good idea is to determine your future from one Actually, 312 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: that's that's a good pool. That is true, right, It's 313 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: so funny. I feel like just this whole Bachelor process 314 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: hasn't made me feel like I need to make decision 315 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: making in my romantic life so quickly you're like, oh, 316 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: you don't know something after like two dates. That's so 317 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: not normal. You should be saying I love you on 318 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: the third day. Does it ever warp your sense of 319 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: time with romance? Ben, I don't know, ash uh No, 320 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think it's maybe slowed down 321 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: my sense of timing or romance. I think for me now, 322 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: when I when I go on dates or when I'm 323 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: speaking to somebody, I want to take it a lot 324 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: slower because I've now sees the issues when you don't 325 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: really kind of work through some of the big questions 326 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: that you have in life. So for me, it's kind 327 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: of done the opposite where I've taken a big step 328 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: back and I said, let's slow everything down. Interesting. That's 329 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: so interesting because now I feel like, on a second day, 330 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: I should be like, is this a guy that I 331 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,080 Speaker 1: could marry?

So 339 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: I mean, actually, I have a feeling you did this 340 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: even before the show. Amy, you haven't even been on 341 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: the show, and you do that. Okay, I'm just marriage focused, 342 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: you know.

Alright, 361 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: let's go back to some fun stuff. Kenny Kenny, We 362 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: have Kenny King on the line right now. We want 363 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: to talk about the authenticity of him actually losing to 364 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 1: Little Ari. Yeah. Hey, Kenny was from Rachel's season of 365 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,679 Speaker 1: The Bachelrette. He also made a really great appearance on 366 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: this week's UH Bachelor's Kenny, Welcome to the Almost Famous podcast, 367 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: Kenny Kenny kidding, Hey, why weren't you on The Bachelor 368 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: Winner Games? I totally felt like you were fit for that. 369 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: I definitely was supposed to be. But I had a 370 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: last pay per view of the year for the wresting 371 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: company that I worked for was in New York City 372 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: on UH, so that it was an unskippable thing for me, 373 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: and I thought that that was gonna be okay, And 374 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: initially the talks were they that's gonna be fine. You 375 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 1: just fly from Vermont, New York and in the back, 376 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 1: but it didn't work. So, hey, I was watching television, 377 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 1: um last night Kenny or no last week? Sorry, and 378 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that you are a professional like wrestler 379 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: like on WWE. Is this a new thing that this 380 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: happened after the show or have you always been on WW? No, 381 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: I don't rest for w wrest for company? Was what 382 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 1: was it that I was watching? Then? Probably? Probably? Uh, 383 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: there was. I started on w W. I was trained 384 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: on Tough Enough. It was a show on MTV a 385 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 1: couple of years ago where it's basically like the Ultimate 386 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: Fighters now where they trained They took eight men five 387 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: women and they trained become pro wrestler's basically like an 388 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: athlete challenge. That's how I started. That's under the w 389 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: AV brand. But what I was what I do currently is, uh, 390 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 1: it's a company called Ring of On Orrecting. We're on 391 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: all the Sinclair broadcast networks. That makes sense. So obviously 392 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 1: you're using your skills for the shill last night. Actually, 393 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: I know you have a ton of questions for Kenny 394 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: about the authenticity. To take it away, Kenny, they made 395 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 1: you lose to Ri right, Uh, what I mean, what 396 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: do you think yes, yes, realness here on the Almost 397 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: fame as podcast. What do you think that? All right? 398 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: All right, well does already have they say they say, 399 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 1: you don't you know, you don't go into a person's 400 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: home and uh and uh and beat them up. So 401 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: you know, I was a guest. I was a guest 402 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: on on the RI show, so you know I was. 403 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: I was a gracious guest. That's funny, you were does 404 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: already have any natural skill? You know? Ari is uh, 405 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: he's he's surprisingly big. Uh and we you know he 406 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: took to it pretty fast. Okay, so I will give 407 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: are uh some credit and that you know he was 408 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: he wasn't you know two left feed he has some 409 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: athletic ability. He uh, you know he was not completely 410 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: lost in there. So prop sorry, How did you feel 411 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 1: about that as a date? Did you find the girls 412 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: super sexy while they're wrestling? Did you feel like it 413 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: was kind of pointless and showing nothing about them as people? Uh? Well, 414 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: I definitely like their costumes, but they were absolutely terrible wrestless. 415 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: If if it was a date where I mean they 416 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: got you know, I was in the basterwere like, hey, 417 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: you know, the best wrestler you have to you know, 418 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: you have to give roses too, because they would have 419 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: all went home. They were pretty bad. But outstarted that, 420 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: you know, it was it was good to see you know, 421 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 1: the girls come out of the shows and and you know, 422 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,239 Speaker 1: turn into something and and just kind of you know, 423 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: just just go with it and and go with the 424 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:06,959 Speaker 1: flow and just kind of go out of their own 425 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: comfort zone. Frari. So uh, that's that's I think that 426 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: maybe would be the biggest takeaway from it. Those women 427 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: wrestlers from the eighties, they were really scary and mean. 428 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: Is that the norm? That's the norm and your profession, 429 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: isn't it? Well, that's when you're when you're as they 430 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: call it in my professional green woman. Uh, you you 431 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 1: know that that's kind of how it's supposed to be. Uh. 432 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 1: They want to weed out the people that aren't you know, 433 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: they want to do it on the weekends and the 434 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: people that aren't uh you know, aren't really into it. 435 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: So you know, not so much now. The business to 436 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: change now, But even when I was getting into it, 437 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 1: and definitely I'm sure and those ladies that into it, 438 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: your training is the beature has pretty bad and no jokes, 439 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: were those ladies legit oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. 440 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: Those are legit uh glow ladies from the eighties, and 441 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 1: uh you know we were kind of in the back 442 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: and they were looking at me like, well, what do 443 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 1: you think we should do with these girls? We don't 444 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,719 Speaker 1: have the time to train them. And I was like, 445 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: let's let's just keep it simple, you know, because even 446 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: it's even it's fun and and and they tried to 447 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: kind of make it lighthearted. Pro wrestling is very very 448 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: dangerous still, so uh, you know, you wanted to do 449 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 1: make these girls do stuff and learn things that you know, 450 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: even if they do it terribly, that nobody gets hurt. 451 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 1: They were better wrestlers than with those dogs disaster. Another 452 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: date where I didn't really know the point. Hey Kenny, 453 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: did you get it? Get a chance to chat with Ari? Yeah? Yeah, 454 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: Ari and I chat uh for for a little bit. 455 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,239 Speaker 1: I had to kind of teach him a little bit 456 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 1: of things. So you know, I was a really cool guy. 457 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 1: Uh you know that everybody was. I know, everybody was 458 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: all upset about its not being Peter, but are's cool? 459 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 1: Are there for? You know? Or as as as the 460 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: Rose boys say, he's there for the right reasons? Uh? So, 461 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 1: uh you know it was. It was really cool to 462 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 1: get a chance like this, just talk to him and 463 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: get to talk to him man and man instead of 464 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: this kind of you know that we threw all the 465 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 1: whatever it is. I mean, I want to clear up 466 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: to um explained to me because I really don't know. 467 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: And I grew up watching wrestling. Now, even though you 468 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: can say, you know, Ari beat you during the show, 469 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 1: it wouldn't be clearly abnormal in wrestling, because it's it's 470 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: an entertainment sport for that to happen on television as well, right, 471 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: that that whole thing kind of plays out or is 472 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: it up at the skill level of the individual wrestler 473 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: who wins. Well, well, it's it's that is the way 474 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: that it happened would be the way that you would 475 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 1: see it on television. Uh. You know, you've got a 476 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: guy who's obviously way more experienced than the other guy, 477 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, as it as it as it was, 478 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: you know, I'm basically taking advantage of him and kind 479 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,479 Speaker 1: of overlooking him. And when I got streckted by the girls, 480 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 1: you know, he got one up on me. That is 481 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: a very viable I mean that hell, that happens in 482 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: real life. You know, he checked by the girl and 483 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: then boom before you know what you lose. So that's 484 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: the kind of uh you know that I try to 485 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: make it as plausible as possible where it's not like 486 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: Ari would be, you know, beating me, because that's not 487 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 1: really what would happen, you realize. Did you have a 488 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: favorite of those girls, Kenny?

Like a lot of 574 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: people have reached out to me and are like surviving 575 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: seriously seriously my Yeah, the football coach at my high 576 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 1: school was like, my niece was seriously injured in a 577 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,959 Speaker 1: bumper car accident as permanent brain damage.

I'm in the same 580 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: boat exactly. So that's making these hilarious tweets from people 581 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: magazine that I want to read less fun but I 582 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: think I can fight through that. Still a lot less 583 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: funny now. But I know if you read in my 584 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 1: Cosmo recap last week, I talked about how I'm not 585 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: necessarily traumatized up opper cars, but I never understood the 586 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: appeal of them same like why do you want to 587 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: just ram into people? And I think from me, like 588 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: so people didn't really understand what was going on that day, 589 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: and like a big part of it for me was 590 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: actually like a bullying aspect. I was at a birthday 591 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: party and I had these girls that were like really 592 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: bullying me that day, kind of like that whole year. 593 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: I was like in a new school and I felt 594 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: very like attacked, And so I think that was where 595 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: like the trauma came from, you know, that like deep 596 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: feeling of like girls just picking on you. So did 597 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: they try to ram into you with their bumper cars? 598 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't really remember the details because I 599 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: was probably like seven years old, so it's just one 600 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: of those things. As soon as I got there, I 601 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: was like, oh my gosh, that feeling of just like 602 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 1: people picking on you and making fun of you was 603 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: all coming back. And then I think it was just 604 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 1: like being in the house with all those girls and 605 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 1: stuff too. It was like bringing up so many definitely 606 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 1: want to dig into this, but I'd love to read 607 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: the actor.

And my biggest question was, first the bumper 631 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: car thing was funny, but then the next week you're 632 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 1: afraid of dogs. And at that point, were you like, oh, 633 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: I'll just hand this up and it'll be kind of funny. 634 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: This will be my ongoing theme is like being scared 635 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,959 Speaker 1: of every grouped it. Honestly, I did not think they 636 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: would air any of that stuff about the dog, like 637 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: my dog trauma, just because because then it was so 638 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: not relevant to like what the date actually was. So um. 639 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: But I was like freaking out. I'm like, oh my gosh, 640 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: they are just trying to beat me up right now, 641 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: like first the derby and now they're going to have 642 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: like attack dogs coming, you know, viciously at there are 643 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: attack dogs, I thought, so my initial thought was I 644 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: thought they were going to have us like in jumpsuits 645 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 1: and have dogs like attacking us and like training dogs 646 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: to do. So I was like, oh crap, this is 647 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 1: not going to be another fun day for me. But 648 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: you know, I have actually, like quite a few scars 649 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: on my face from my dog attack when I was 650 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: a kid. I almost lost my eye when I was 651 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: like every time, I'm sorry, I'm bringing it background.

No. Actually, so 666 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: I'm an event planner and I have a client and 667 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: I throw all of her dog birthday parties. So um, 668 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 1: I spent a lot of time with dogs. Good, good, good. 669 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 1: I'm glad it didn't ruin dogs for you. Now we 670 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: have to talk about how awkward. Okay, you're you had 671 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: two awkward moments, two very prominent awkward moments. One on 672 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 1: the group date. Tell us about your feelings with Ari 673 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:49,479 Speaker 1: when you try to talk to him on the group 674 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,800 Speaker 1: date and you're just like, this is just not happening 675 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 1: for us, is it? Yeah? So I went in and uh, 676 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 1: first of all, it was like a little bit hard 677 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: to get time with him at all that night, and 678 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: so when I finally got some time, I was like, 679 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 1: all right, I gotta make the most of it. And 680 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,359 Speaker 1: then it just felt like pulling teeth, like he and 681 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: I just the conversation was never there. I always felt 682 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: like I'd ask him something and then it was like 683 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: a one word back and I'm like, all right, you 684 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 1: want to elaborate or like ask me something now, Like 685 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 1: it was just not a two way street. I felt 686 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 1: like his body language was like totally turned away from me, 687 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 1: which was like very hard to kind of get him 688 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 1: to warm up to me. So um, so yeah, so 689 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: I was like this is, yeah, this is not happening. 690 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: So did you feel like that was the way he 691 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: treated all the girls he wasn't really ribing with No, definitely, 692 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: not like what you guys were saying earlier. I feel 693 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:36,280 Speaker 1: like the girls that he liked it was so clear, 694 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: and the girls that he was a maybe or didn't like, 695 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,400 Speaker 1: it was just it was so clear, you know. And 696 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: I felt like I was one of the girls that 697 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:44,839 Speaker 1: I don't know if he had definitely made his mind 698 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: up about me, but I felt like he wasn't taking 699 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 1: the time to get to know if he if there 700 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 1: was anything even there so interesting. He was really trying 701 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: to make an uncomfortable environment even more awkward. Yeah, it 702 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: was just never. It was always it was always just 703 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 1: work with him and um and it was never like 704 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: carefree or fun. And I would have loved if we 705 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: got to the point where we are just like making out, 706 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 1: because I feel like that was like his fallback with 707 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: a lot of girls. Yeah, sometimes I'm watching the show 708 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,919 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, I think he's just kissing girls because 709 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 1: he doesn't really know what to say anymore, and he 710 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: knows that that's his skill. So maybe intimate conversation, playful conversation. 711 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: He's not very playful or flurry, but maybe he feels 712 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: like kissing is his strength, so he goes right for that. 713 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: And like him, I definitely like in the beginning, I'm like, Okay, 714 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm here for this guy. He seems 715 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: like a great guy. I'm going to give him a shot. 716 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: But then as it was going, I mean, I have 717 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: no interest in him. Now, let's put it that way. 718 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: I don't watch it back and say, oh my gosh, 719 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: I have so many regrets it. Uh that night, I 720 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: was done. I was like, I had nothing, no interest 721 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: in him. All right, let's talk about the kiss. And 722 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 1: that was probably the most demoralizing moment I've ever seen 723 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: on TV. I mean, he said, I don't think we're 724 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: there yet. Yeah, as you basically said, can I kiss you? Right? 725 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:08,839 Speaker 1: So tell us about your feelings. So yeah, I mean, 726 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: definitely not a fun moment. But I knew that I 727 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: didn't want to be if he was just going to 728 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: like keep me around to be like in the background 729 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 1: for a couple more weeks, you know, I'm like, I 730 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 1: don't need that, and um, and also it was just 731 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: it was hard being with all these girls who were like, 732 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 1: oh my god, I just made out with him or 733 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: you know whatever, and I'm like, okay, really like throw 734 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 1: me your bone, dude, and dog day um exactly, and 735 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, really, guys, let's rub it in a 736 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: little bit more. And so you know, like at the 737 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: end of the day, um oh. And that was the 738 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: other thing. So the girls kept saying like, well, he 739 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 1: was never the one to make the first move. I 740 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: always had to be the one to make the first move. 741 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: But I don't want to, Like, you know, sometimes you 742 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: see those bachelor moments where you they the girl like 743 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 1: lunges themselves at the guy. I think I had a 744 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 1: moment or two like that, and then they reject it though, 745 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: or it's just a really awkward moment, and I'm like, 746 00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: I don't want to be that girl. So I'd rather 747 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: like put it out there and if he doesn't, then 748 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:02,800 Speaker 1: he doesn't. Ben, did you make the first move or 749 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 1: did the girls make the move on you? I think 750 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: I always make them first move. I think it would 751 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: be weird if I would expect the girls to to 752 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,839 Speaker 1: make the first move. I'm the one. Um. I think, 753 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: especially in the beginning is like I said earlier, your 754 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 1: job is to make everybody feel comfortable. I think, and 755 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 1: to make everybody feel like this is at some level 756 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: a normal deal. And as a result, like part of 757 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 1: that comfortability for me to you know, tell the girls, hey, 758 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: I really care about you, was to kiss them, to 759 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 1: make the first move, to put myself out there, and 760 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: for myself to take the rest, not make the women 761 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 1: take the rest. Right right, I'm thinking Ari's like, oh, 762 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,839 Speaker 1: you know, I'm the kissing bandit, I'm so talented this, 763 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: you have to come get it. So he kissed all 764 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: eighteen girls minus you. That's a lot, I think. So, 765 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: I think that's a lot. Then a lot. But the 766 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: thing is, there were like two kisses that really they 767 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: weren't They weren't like kisses kisses. It was kind of 768 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,319 Speaker 1: like a dare or right or you know, something like that. 769 00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 1: So I felt I felt less about hibout that when 770 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: I found out a theater. But right, like the Babby's 771 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: kiss make air, No, I don't think so, because well, 772 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 1: and like Ben, like you were saying, I mean, I 773 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 1: think personally for me, I think that's a big part 774 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: of it. Like I like the man to kind of 775 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,319 Speaker 1: take control and like guide those situations too, and make 776 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 1: me feel like they really want me to be there. 777 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 1: And are attracted to me, and so I didn't want 778 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: to be the one just like throwing myself at some dude. 779 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 1: He's a little weird. Some of the girls are like 780 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: climbing on top of him. That's making me feel weird 781 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 1: every time I watch it. Okay, wait, and I also 782 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 1: need to talk about how everybody was like, oh my god, 783 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: he's the best kisser ever, best kisser're ever?

And I like, even when Al was announced, 786 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,319 Speaker 1: to remember how I described how perfectly he kisses. Now 787 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 1: I don't feel the same way because it's like an act. 788 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: I feel like he's doing it with girls he's barely 789 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: talking to, barely knows, And now all the romance of 790 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 1: what I thought Ari's kiss was like is out the window, 791 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: and I just I just don't feel And what I 792 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: don't want to kis him anymore.

She 806 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 1: on the dog date was the one who kissed him 807 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: uh at the during our performance.

So 814 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 1: after the fact, after watching it back and finding out 815 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: about her family life, you know, you kind of feel like, 816 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 1: oh god, it's coming from a place. But she's not 817 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 1: a very nice person. Like I'll just say, she's not 818 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 1: a nice person. So it's hard having a conversation with her, 819 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,399 Speaker 1: She definitely was constantly digging, trying to make you feel 820 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 1: uncomfortable or like if she wasn't talking to you, Um, 821 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 1: it was because she was trying to be like omissive 822 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 1: and leave things out so that you weren't going I said, 823 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 1: bachelor villain rule number one, if you're trying to be 824 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,720 Speaker 1: a bachelor villain, don't tell the other girls what's happening 825 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 1: on your dates. Right, be secretive from Ben, because I 826 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:45,799 Speaker 1: know Ben, you and Nick kind of touched on this, 827 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,879 Speaker 1: and I really want to get your vibe on that 828 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 1: whispery baby talkie, the thing she's doing phone sex operator. Yeah, 829 00:41:55,080 --> 00:42:00,080 Speaker 1: is that hot or what? Actually? Can you recreate it 830 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:04,919 Speaker 1: for Ben? You know what it sounds like. I mean, 831 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,280 Speaker 1: I think it's probably attractive for some guys. Um, she's 832 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 1: trying hard. And I think that's the part sometimes in 833 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 1: the and when we watch the show, it comes off 834 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: as me and and she comes off as distance, and 835 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,840 Speaker 1: she comes off as a little minipua miniplutive. But then 836 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 1: we hear a story like this is coming from a 837 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 1: place that isn't good. And I think even like that 838 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: little like you know qc TC voice, she's you know, 839 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,840 Speaker 1: throwing off at him is coming from a place that 840 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,840 Speaker 1: is probably a little bit of insecurity because she feels 841 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,879 Speaker 1: like she has to do something to him impress him. 842 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,439 Speaker 1: And that briefly good question, dun at last, I want 843 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 1: to know when you have left this show this week, 844 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 1: what was the vibe in the house towards our for 845 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 1: the girls head of reveal for him? I mean, we 846 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 1: know Crystal is Um, she's really excited about the idea 847 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 1: of art. Is that a common sentiment for the house 848 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,439 Speaker 1: or when you left that it seemed like they're things 849 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 1: are little shaky. I think there was definitely some like 850 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,360 Speaker 1: clear people who felt comfortable, but there were also like 851 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 1: I remember having a conversation with Um, with Kendall and 852 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,799 Speaker 1: CN and UH and they both were like, I mean, 853 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:13,440 Speaker 1: I don't even know at this point, you know, like 854 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,919 Speaker 1: I still really need to learn so much about him 855 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: to figure out if I like him and if this 856 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 1: is going to go somewhere. And I think it was 857 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 1: still so early, so we were all just trying to 858 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,360 Speaker 1: figure out if it's if it could be something, and 859 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,919 Speaker 1: I mean I found out that it couldn't. So when 860 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: hor and S didn't come back, were people like so 861 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,240 Speaker 1: I think I was the only one that was really 862 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: upfront that day, uh that I thought there was no 863 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 1: way she was coming back. And I loved her, but 864 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 1: I could see it there was just really no chemistry 865 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:46,360 Speaker 1: and m and she did say some things in the 866 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:48,840 Speaker 1: house too about how she typically gets put in the 867 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:50,919 Speaker 1: friend zone with guys, and I could just see how 868 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: that was going to probably happen all over again and 869 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 1: I should talk to her. Oh my gosh, can we 870 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 1: recreate the Winner games promoment the friends and so confused 871 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: that's actually in the Winter Game.

Hi, Ban Ashley. 1011 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 1: I am talking to you guys from India, and I'm 1012 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 1: fairly new to the Bachelor world as I've only seen 1013 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 1: the last three seasons of b I p and Ben 1014 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,799 Speaker 1: jojo in Rachel's season and now I'm watching Aris. My 1015 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 1: question is, what are your next Bachelorette predictions? Anyone from 1016 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 1: our season or wild card like Christina from next season? 1017 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:49,839 Speaker 1: Well the podcast and your friendship love Manneca Vica, all right, 1018 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,440 Speaker 1: I'm still going with Christina for some reason right now, 1019 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 1: because I think Becca short Hairbecca is a good candidate, 1020 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,479 Speaker 1: but way too young and nobody would be on board 1021 00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:02,279 Speaker 1: for the twenty two year old bachelor. I would have, Yeah, 1022 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:04,839 Speaker 1: I would have to agree. I think Tia from this 1023 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 1: season yes the best chance. I think. I just think 1024 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:10,480 Speaker 1: he is compelling. I know, obviously have I said it 1025 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 1: last week. She's one of my top choices on our 1026 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:15,880 Speaker 1: season right now. She's beautiful, she's funny. I think she 1027 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:18,800 Speaker 1: should would be a great candidate to be the Bachelor. 1028 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:23,839 Speaker 1: I would not be surprised if you see Tia. I agree, Ben, 1029 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:25,239 Speaker 1: I know it's a little early on. I think we 1030 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 1: should answer this question in three weeks. We will, Yeah, 1031 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure we will. But Tia is also the one 1032 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:35,440 Speaker 1: girl from our season that is giving me bachelorette vibes. 1033 00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: I wish I would enjoy Becca if she wasn't so young. 1034 00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:41,880 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Becca could be a great bach in a 1035 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:47,000 Speaker 1: couple of years. Perfect. Maybe she'll come back all of Emily. 1036 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:55,719 Speaker 1: I mean, who knows it would be the Bachelor now? Damn, girl, 1037 00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 1: you look great. You would not that like as if 1038 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:06,160 Speaker 1: thirty three like Jerry.
