Speaker 1: doing interviews this week and we have Lexi coming on

4
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: the podcast. She's a pretty big person in episode one.

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like definitely a fan favorite on Joey's

6
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,919
Speaker 2: season of The Bachelor, we were lucky enough to have

7
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 2: her on during that season to learn more about her,

8
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 2: and she was a big part of episode one as well.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 2: You know, we see her kind of getting close with Justin,

10
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 2: who is a fan favorite.

11
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 3: He was on Paradise before.

12
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 2: And there's a little bit of drama starting there with

13
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 2: the potential of Susie joining the cast as well.

14
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and her first day gets canceled. Was Yeah, what

15

Speaker 3: An indoor dinner, Like we don't have a rain plan.

21
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like the lobbies are like a lobby with a

22
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: fireplace where they could have like a glass of wine,

23
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: like get to know each other a little bit.

24
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,760

Speaker 1: We're good, We're good. Before we get into episode one,

32
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: a little background. You are from Joey's season. Man, it's

33
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: been a while, Joey has been a while. You were

34
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 1: on Joey's season. Where are you now? Where do you live?

35
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: What's kind of been going on pre paradise.

36
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I was on Joey's season and I came

37
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 5: back to Atlanta, which is where I'm still currently living.

38
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 5: And I came back to my corporate job. So nothing

39
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 5: too crazy in terms of changes, but I did start

40
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 5: a business which has been really exciting, and so I

41
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 5: just quit my corporate job recently and I'm doing the business.

42
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 4: Full time now.

43
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 5: So I've been traveling a lot, and yeah, it's kind

44
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 5: of been awind. I can't believe it's been as long

45
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 5: as it has since the season. It's time is crazy

46
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 5: right now.

47
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: What is the business?

48
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,639
Speaker 5: The dating business? So it's called in the Wild and

49
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 5: it's in person dating. So we do matchmaking in person

50
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 5: dating events FED dating, and yeah, it's been fun. We've there's,

51
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 5: you know, three couples that are engaged and we have

52
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 5: over one hundred couples that are dating and it's only

53
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 5: been a year, so it's definitely working. But it was

54
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 5: fun to kind of get to play matchmaker on the

55
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,959
Speaker 5: beach just since I've been doing that for the last year.

56
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 3: So that's crazy.

57
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 2: So what are some things that you look for when

58
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 2: you're trying to set people up?

59
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 4: You know, you try to look at the person as

60
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 4: a whole.

61
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 5: I think so much is like list driven these days,

62
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 5: like I want them to be this height, that they

63
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 5: want them to look like this, I want them to

64
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 5: have this type of job. But I think if you

65
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 5: strip some of that away, what I'm finding through all

66
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 5: of this is like in person people meet individuals and

67
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 5: they're actually very surprised, like from a personality connection, like

68
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 5: they wouldn't have matched with them on a dating app.

69
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 5: But once they get talking to them in a room

70
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,639
Speaker 5: and you know, don't have like a checklist in front

71
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 5: of them of like their height occupy all of that,

72
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 5: they are more open minded to meeting different people. And

73
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 5: so I've definitely been trying to lean into that as well,

74
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 5: as you know, I was dating before the.

75
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 4: Show, seeing someone as the whole and not just a list.

76
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, where could people find your website, your services? I

77
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 2: want to take advantage. And is it across the US?

78
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 2: Is it just Atlanta.

79
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 5: We're about to kick off a tour and so we're

80
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 5: going to be going to major cities across the US

81
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 5: and basically bringing this pop up activation there. You guys

82
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 5: can find us on Instagram, in the wild dating and TikTok,

83
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 5: and then our website as well, which is linked in

84
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 5: all of those social platforms. But yeah, we're excited to

85
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 5: bring it to other cities like Charleston, Nashville, LA.

86
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 4: So it should be fun.

87
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 3: I love that. That is so fun.

88
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: Have you dated since Joey's season?

89
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 4: Yeah?

90
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 5: I dated someone briefly after Joey's season, and you know,

91
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 5: a good guy, but just kind of not on the

92
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 5: same page that I was on. And I think I

93
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 5: talked about that a lot on Joey's season what I'm

94
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 5: looking for, and so it's good experience. But I kind of,

95
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 5: you know, dated him right after the show, and then

96
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 5: I jumped right into building this business.

97
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 4: And so when Paradise came along.

98
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 5: I had a lot of mixed feelings about it, but

99
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 5: I hadn't dated in a little bit, and so it was, yeah,

100
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 5: we'll talk about that more, I'm sure, but it was

101
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 5: definitely a different as a stretch for me.

102
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was thinking about you the other day because

103
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 2: I knew we were probably going to have you on

104
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 2: the podcast, and one of my girlfriends called me and

105
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 2: is getting the surgery done to see if she has endometriosis.

106
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 3: How are you doing with all of that?

107
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 5: It's been, you know, transparently, it's every day it has

108
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 5: its own challenges. I'm coming up on having another surgery

109
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 5: at the end of the summer, and so before that,

110
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 5: I'll have to freeze my eggs one more time. I

111
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 5: froze them right before I went on Joey's season, and so,

112
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 5: you know, I know, is a systemic disease with no cure,

113
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 5: and so unfortunately, you know it ebbs and flows definitely

114
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 5: have worse weeks than others. But luckily I have an

115
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 5: amazing team of doctors and hopefully eventually, you know, a

116
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 5: supportive partner and my eggs are frozen and we can

117
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 5: you know, come up with a plan that's best for

118
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 5: our family, but.

119
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, thank you for asking.

120
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 5: It's it's just a part of me at this point,

121
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 5: not going anywhere, but I'm trying my best to stay positive.

122
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 2: Did it impact your experience filming Paradise in any way?

123
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it was the second day and time

124
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 5: there is obviously, you know, everything feels like you're living

125
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 5: ten days in one and on the second day I

126
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 5: had a really bad flare, and so I just like,

127
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,359
Speaker 5: for some reason, on Joey's season it was a little

128
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 5: like easier because I could wear like, you know, a

129
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 5: flowy dress, but we were on the beach and bikinis,

130
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 5: so you know, I was like kind of dying inside

131
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 5: because I mean, obviously all the girls are in such

132
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 5: good shape and then I'm over here like I looked

133
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 5: like eight months pregnant. Obviously out of my control. It

134
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 5: was an endo flare. Great doctors on the show. I've

135
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 5: always had such a good experience. They take such good

136
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 5: care of me. But it did feel in a bathing suit.

137
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 5: I was like, this is worst case scenario, but out

138
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 5: of my control.

139
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, that totally makes sense.

140
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 1: So you get the call for Paradise, where's your head at?

141
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:03,559
Speaker 1: You an instant Yes, we're what are you thinking?

142
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 2: No.

143
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 4: I think I was an instant no at first.

144
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 5: And I think a lot of people when they found out,

145
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 5: you know, when they dropped the cast, were surprised, and

146
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 5: I was like, I was surprised too. I think when

147
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 5: I first heard about it, or you know, got that

148
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 5: invitation from from production, it was I don't know if

149
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 5: it's the best fit for me, just because of, you know,

150
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 5: exactly the reason why I left Joey's season. What I'm

151
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 5: looking for, Like, are these guys truly ready for that?

152
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 5: And then you don't know who the guys are ahead

153
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 5: of time, and so I wasn't sure there would be

154
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,559
Speaker 5: someone there that was, you know, maybe a little older

155
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 5: and more ready for that next step.

156
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 4: You know, who knows.

157
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 5: I'm sure a lot of the guys, depending on their age,

158
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 5: could be ready for different things. But and I also

159
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 5: am just not an aggressive personality, and so I was like,

160
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 5: I don't even know if I'll do well there, because

161
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 5: if someone's fighting over a guy, I would just be like,

162
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 5: you know, you can have them, like I just I

163
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 5: couldn't even It would just give me anxiety. So at

164
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 5: first I was like, I don't think it's for me.

165
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 5: So that's kind of where we started.

166
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: Did you watch Bachelor and Paradise going into this?

167
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 4: I have not seen it in so long.

168
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 5: I have not seen it since like Hannah and Dylan's

169
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 5: like season, and so I know Paradise, but I had

170
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 5: not watched it in a year, so I felt like

171
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 5: I was a little behind. But then they kept saying

172
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 5: this season was going to be so different and so

173
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 5: id they were like kind of scrap everything you know

174
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 5: about it before, and so that.

175
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 4: Made me feel a little better.

176
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, so what were your initial thoughts when you got

177
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: there and everything was very different.

178
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 5: They kept saying there's going to be these challenges, and

179
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 5: I was so nervous we were going to be on

180
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 5: like wipeout or something. I was like, I am not

181
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 5: like prepared for survivor like wrong, wrong contestant.

182
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 4: But once I got.

183
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 5: There, I mean, it was such a It's such a

184
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 5: beautiful resort, like truly really, you know, they upgraded, they

185
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 5: have air conditioning, which I'm sure you guys probably are.

186
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 4: Jealous that you didn't have air conditioning.

187
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 5: I heard from like Kat who had done Paradise before

188
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 5: that this was infinitely nicer. And so I'm in the

189
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 5: beach is the beach, but I was grateful to have

190
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 5: air conditioning and the goldens. You know, knowing they were

191
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 5: coming was fun and having handed there was like a

192
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 5: really nice mix up. So it was positive like energy

193
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 5: walking into it. For sure, it felt very fresh.

194
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 2: When you guys got to Costa Rica, did you I'm

195
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 2: like kind of breaking the fourth wall with this question,

196
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 2: but like you obviously stay in a room for a

197
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 2: few days before they send you down. Did you stay

198
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 2: at that hotel or did you stay somewhere else and

199
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 2: they brought you onto set?

200
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 5: Say, somewhere else and they brought us onto set. The

201
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 5: other hotel was it was very close. I mean it

202
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 5: was a less than a ten minute drive, but you

203
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 5: are in isolation until you get called down to the beach.

204
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 5: And when you do get called down, you don't know

205
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 5: if people have been there for you know, days, one

206
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 5: day hours.

207
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 4: So same as I.

208
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: Guess before, were you at all worried that you may

209
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: not be original cast, that they could drop you?

210
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 5: I did, yeah, and I expressed those concerns to production,

211
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 5: And it was mostly I wasn't trying to be like

212
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 5: I want to be there first. It was really because

213
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 5: of one my personality being a little bit more like mellow.

214
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 4: I was nervous.

215
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 5: I'm not I'm not the bombshell, like, don't bring me

216
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 5: in later, it will I just would. I don't think

217
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 5: I would do well on that, and so they kind

218
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 5: of reassured me that I would. They're early on to

219
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 5: be able to establish a connection, so I was like, okay,

220
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 5: maybe one first day, second day, but I've heard in

221
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 5: the past they bring in people so much later, so

222
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 5: you never know.

223
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's totally fair.

224
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: I think anyone going on the show that's like really

225
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,839
Speaker 2: serious about finding a genuine connection, the earlier the better.

226
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 3: I mean, that's no.

227
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 2: Secret, totally Okay, So you get down there, you were

228
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 2: kind of down there earlier in the day for sure.

229
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 4: Early.

230
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 2: What are your original thoughts, what are those first conversations?

231
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 5: Like, Yeah, it was so hot, that was my first thought.

232
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 5: I was like, how does everyone look good on this show?

233
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 5: Like I just could not stop thinking about this wedding.

234
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 5: But it was you know, we walked in. There's two

235
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 5: other people there, Spencer and Alex. Spencer from Gen season,

236
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 5: Alex from Grant season. I had known Spencer like just

237
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,079
Speaker 5: through you know, social media before this, and he's such

238
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 5: just a great guy, and Alex was so vibrant, like

239
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 5: very energetic, so it was really good energy when we

240
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 5: walked in. But I think it was we were all

241
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,200
Speaker 5: just waiting to see who was coming down next, So it.

242
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 4: Was kind of just like a waiting game.

243
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 5: And I think at that point, like Wells wasn't there,

244
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 5: Hannah definitely wasn't there, so we were all just kind

245
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 5: of like scoping it out. We didn't know if the

246
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 5: Goldens were coming that day, like, we didn't know anything.

247
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 2: So going down, obviously we see you kind of form

248
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 2: a connection with Justin, But who were kind of the

249
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 2: guys that you were looking to talk to are interested in?

250
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I didn't have a specific name, but I

251
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 5: definitely wanted someone who was a little bit older and

252
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 5: maybe someone that I hadn't met before. And there was

253
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 5: a guy down there at Kyle, and I was really

254
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 5: excited because I didn't know who he was. I didn't

255
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 5: know what season he came from, so it was just

256
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 5: like very intriguing to get to know him better. But

257
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 5: otherwise I think I knew all of the guys at

258
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 5: least from social media besides Kyle.

259
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, that's interesting. We asked just that too.

260
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 2: We're just trying to get a vibe on like how

261
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 2: well everyone knew each other going in, because I feel

262
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: like it's different every season.

263
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: Totally, which I think was good this season that it

264
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: was more like we kind of know of each other,

265
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 1: but we all don't really know each other. Yeah. Always,

266
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 1: that's always better. I think one of the past few seasons,

267
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: it just seemed like everyone like.

268
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 3: Had met and been.

269
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 4: It was like the stage coach thing, right, Like I

270
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 4: didn't go to stage Coach this.

271
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 2: Year, so yeah, it was probably for the best. So

272
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 2: down there the first day, all the cast is there.

273
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 2: Who are the people that you're closest with.

274
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 5: I'm really close to Jess, She's from my season. She's amazing,

275
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 5: And I think that was from a girl perspective. She

276
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 5: was the only one that I knew from from my season.

277
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 5: But I really started to get close to Bailey and

278
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 5: Zoe and Alex and so so nice having them there.

279
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,559
Speaker 5: And Jonathan I had talked to on social media a

280
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 5: little bit before, and so it felt like kind of

281
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 5: talking to a friend. So I think at first we

282
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,319
Speaker 5: were all like kind of grouped together and then people

283
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 5: started to pair off. But it was nice to have

284
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 5: some familiar faces, so we made it a little more comfortable.

285
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: Was there a romantic spark at all with you and Jonathan?

286
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 4: Ever, No, you know, I never got to explore it.

287
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 5: I that first day was so chaotic just with you know,

288
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 5: getting to know everyone, and then I got that one

289
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 5: on one on the first day, and then it got

290
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 5: rained out and so they swiftly bring you to your

291
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 5: room and you got to get ready and hurry, hurry, hurry,

292
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 5: And so I actually ended up waiting in the room

293
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 5: for like five and a half hours because every time

294
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 5: I think, they had to wait, wait, wait, And so

295
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 5: I missed those five and a half hours. Where I

296
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 5: was in the room was when everyone else was like

297
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 5: mixing and mingling, and so Jonathan and I never really

298
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 5: had a chance to go deeper that first day, which

299
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 5: was now I'm starting to learn, like in Paradise, day

300
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 5: one is so critical, So I kind of missed that.

301
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 3: God that's such a bummer.

302
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 2: I mean, like that is just how it goes with

303
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 2: the rain obviously, but it probably sucks because you're like

304
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 2: I can't even hang it with Justin. I can't even

305
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 2: like get to know all these people and like them.

306
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 2: By the time day two hits and you've been chilling

307
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 2: in your room against your will. Everyone's a little more

308
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 2: coupled up totally.

309
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 5: And then the thing about day two, it was we

310
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 5: had the makeup date, so like all the whole night

311
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 5: when I'm in my room in isolation, and then day

312
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 5: two we went on our day date to make up

313
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 5: the date from the night prior that got rained out,

314
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 5: So I missed a lot of that early time.

315
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 2: You must have been like, thank god I have a

316
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 2: rose this week, because at least I know I've got

317
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 2: you know that next week to have more time.

318
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 4: Totally.

319
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was. I was when we found out that

320
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,199
Speaker 5: the woman had the roses. First, I was so happy

321
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 5: for a lot of reasons. But when the timing shook

322
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 5: out with like my date being canceled and rescheduled, I

323
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 5: was like, thank god, otherwise I'd be freaking out. I

324
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 5: was like, I don't know who I get a rose from?

325
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, did you know? So justin comes to your room

326
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: AND's like, hey, bad news, dates canceled? Do you already

327
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: do you guys already know that it's going to be rescheduled? Like,

328
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 1: oh not?

329
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 5: At that point, I was actually the whole thing was

330
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 5: so crazy because I was in my room for so long,

331
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,599
Speaker 5: I actually fell asleep, And so when he knocked it

332
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 5: fully in a dress, like full makeup, you.

333
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 4: Know, ready it again.

334
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 5: So when he knocked on the door, I thought I

335
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 5: was production or a handler, and it was him. He

336
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 5: was like, you know, we'll try to figure something out

337
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 5: for tomorrow, but we had no clue if we were

338
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 5: going to be able to make it up.

339
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 4: Just with filming and the schedule being so.

340
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 2: Tight, was any part of you like, I'm on the Bachelor,

341
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: why do we not have a rain plan? Like we're

342
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: at a hotel, Like couldn't we go to dinner? Or

343
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 2: was it just like so late by the time they

344
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 2: made the call, it was.

345
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 5: So late, you know, new season, new vibes, new cameras,

346
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 5: like it's so many elevated points with that, but also

347
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 5: comes with pain points like I think that, yes, I'm

348
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 5: sure it would be nice to have a plan, being

349
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 5: a rain plan, but I.

350
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 4: Don't think anyone anticipated these storms.

351
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 5: I mean they were insane, like I've never seen anything

352
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 5: like it. So I and then the staff, the you know,

353
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 5: camera crew had been working so late. It was midnight

354
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 5: at that point. So even if I if I went

355
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 5: on the date, I'd be exhausted.

356
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 3: Ye want to know that makes sense?

357
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 5: I can.

358
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: It was like our first date was it raining? It

359
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: wasn't raining, but we were both sick and it was late, Like.

360
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like running out of our shuttle to

361
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 2: like go throw up before our.

362
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 1: First day and it was like late too in the

363
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: week we had to like wrestle.

364
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 3: It was like, yeah, it was.

365
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 4: It was.

366
00:14:58,520 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 3: It was not sexy.

367
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 2: I'll tell me about that, but it makes sense. They're

368
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 2: probably waiting being like, Okay, you know it's gonna let up.

369
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 2: It's gonna let up. It's going to let up, and

370
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden it's midnight. It's like, well,

371
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 2: I guess you're on a bed. How did you feel though,

372
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 2: were you really disappointed?

373
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 5: I was disappointed because I wish that we had been

374
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 5: able to wait with the rest of the cast outside

375
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 5: and not in our rooms.

376
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 4: I felt like I lost a lot of time.

377
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 5: And then as a girl, like I was like I

378
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 5: got all ready, you know, it's just in especially the beach,

379
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 5: I was like I had cool hair and I had to,

380
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 5: you know, do the whole thing. And so it's such

381
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 5: first world problems. But I also wanted to spend time

382
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 5: with Justin. I was excited at that point. I was like,

383
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 5: oh my god, the first one on one of Paradise,

384
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 5: Like how fun, you know, and especially you're in isolation

385
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 5: for so long. I was like, let's go do something

386
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 5: like I wanted to do an activity. I was like

387
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 5: ald zip line. I anyways, so it's okay. We made

388
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 5: up the date the next day.

389
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, tell us about how the date actually ended up

390
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 3: going once you had it.

391
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 4: Yeah.

392
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 5: So he had talked to Hannah and was like, hey,

393
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 5: you know, explain the situation, and she they like brainstormed

394
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 5: and created this little day date went and like sat

395
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 5: on a bench, got to talk a little bit, ate

396
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 5: some lunch, and then we swam. So I think Justin

397
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 5: was like so disappointed because he's like, this is so lame.

398
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 5: We could have done this like at the Paradise set.

399
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 5: But it was nice to have the uninterrupted time and

400
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 5: you know, being removed from the cast. But like the timeline,

401
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 5: you know, as a viewer, I don't think you realize

402
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 5: like we woke up, got ready for the date, did

403
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 5: all of our interviews, went on the date, did post

404
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 5: date interviews, and then we had maybe thirty minutes to

405
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 5: get ready for that first row ceremony, So we missed

406
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 5: an day and again the second day is so important.

407
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, so are you what are you after this date?

408
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: During this date, what are you feeling? Are you liking him?

409
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: What's your intuition telling you, like I can marry this guy?

410
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 4: Or I wasn't there yet? I think I was. So.

411
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 5: I I had talked to Susie before coming up to Paradise,

412
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 5: just because her and I are like very similar life

413
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 5: stages and so and so that's.

414
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 2: Wild that that's the person you went to for advice

415
00:16:58,720 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 2: and I ended up on a date with you.

416
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 5: Walked quite a bit and so you know, I had

417
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 5: never could have anticipated justin asking me on the date

418
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 5: he pulled myself and Alex and I think I'm open minded.

419
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 5: It's day one, Like, of course I'm going to say yes,

420
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 5: But I definitely had hesitations in my head just being

421
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 5: having that conversation with Susie and kind of you know,

422
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 5: understanding they have this history. I know she's in holding

423
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 5: at the hotel at this point, so at any point

424
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 5: she can come down like her and I flew there

425
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 5: on the same day, so I knew she was there.

426
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: Are you are you and Susie friends or did you

427
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: just kind of like reach out to her for a time.

428
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 5: We just reached out and kind of we became We've

429
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 5: definitely became very good friends through this, But at this

430
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 5: point before, I think it was more kind of you

431
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 5: know her and I just saying, you know, how what

432
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 5: are we looking for in this and you know we're.

433
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,919
Speaker 4: Both at this age and who do we think is coming?

434
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 5: Which as soon as I told Justin that we had

435
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 5: the phone call, I think his like whole demeanor change

436
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 5: because he was like, you're kidding me, Like I picked

437
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 5: the one girl here who's like, you know, friendly, has

438
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 5: talked to my ex that it was very you know,

439
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 5: a recent breakup. So I definitely hesitations, I will say,

440
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 5: is how I kind of felt about him. But I

441
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 5: was like, let's go, let's see what he's about. I

442
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 5: know he's funny and something I'm looking for in my partner,

443
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 5: and so but I had hesitations.

444
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 1: So going into the rose ceremony, are you like because

445
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: it's you, it shows you're like a little hesitant on

446
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 1: giving Justin your rose? Who would you have given it to?

447
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: If you didn't give it to Justin?

448
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 5: It I would have given it to Kyle or Jonathan.

449
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 5: I think Kyle, just from what i'm the very brief

450
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 5: conversation we had, he seemed like there was potential there,

451
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 5: but I didn't get enough to be, like, you know,

452
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 5: really dive in more about what he's looking for in

453
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 5: his story. And then Jonathan, I just think because I,

454
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 5: you know, we had this like friendship and we've talked before,

455
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 5: and I know he's a good guy, that felt like

456
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 5: maybe it would have been a safer option. He's more

457
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 5: available rights his ex isn't coming down to the beach.

458
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 5: But because I had that time with Justin and we

459
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,439
Speaker 5: had the conversations where he reassure me so many times

460
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 5: that he is healed from this relationship with Susie, I

461
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:07,640
Speaker 5: ended up giving him the rose. We had the most

462
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,159
Speaker 5: time together and he really really really reassured me.

463
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: Interesting, Yeah, Dale Moss gets yeah going down there, and

464
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 1: he's Dale's older, he's thirty six. Were did you have

465
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: a conversation with him at all? Because it seems like that.

466
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 5: Could have been a So I think Dale's a great guy.

467
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 5: I was not expecting to see him there. That was

468
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 5: probably the biggest surprise for me from a cast perspective,

469
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 5: but he you know, I guess what. I what I've

470
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 5: gathered from talking to all these guys post show is

471
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 5: that they all just assumed Justin and I were coupled up.

472
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 5: And so because we had that date once Dale had

473
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 5: already Dale arrived, Dale arrived, and we had already gone

474
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 5: on the date, I believe I don't.

475
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 4: Really, Okay, I think so.

476
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,640
Speaker 2: I think he had asked you on the date that

477
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,360
Speaker 2: first day, That's what it is, and then Dale came down,

478
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 2: So you were kind of already locked in on that

479
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 2: date with Justin and they're friendly.

480
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 5: I think that, you know, have similar circles outside of this,

481
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 5: and they've hung out, and so I think that, you know,

482
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 5: Dale kind of just stayed away. And I heard that

483
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 5: from Jonathan after I heard that from Kyle. I've heard

484
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 5: that from multiple guys saying that they just kind of

485
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 5: saw I was with Justin and didn't want to get

486
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,400
Speaker 5: involved because we had that date early on.

487
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is wild how that happens.

488
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 2: I feel like that kind of happens every season, even

489
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 2: on ours, where it's like, oh, I thought you were

490
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 2: in a couple, and people get really cautious about like

491
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 2: stepping on toes, even if it's like, oh, we're just

492
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 2: getting to know each other, it's only been two days.

493
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,199
Speaker 3: Like, I'm still open.

494
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,439
Speaker 4: You know, Dale's a great guy and he is older.

495
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, in terms of your relationship with Justin, did you

496
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 2: feel worried about what the dynamic was going to be

497
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 2: when Susie likely came down.

498
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 4: I was worried. I was so worried. It's all I talked.

499
00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 5: If you asked Jess like she was my roommate, it's

500
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 5: all I talked about. To the point where I was

501
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 5: starting to get a little frustrated because it's just not

502
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:04,439
Speaker 5: what I signed up for.

503
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 4: It's not Justin or Susie's fault. They both deserve a.

504
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 5: Chance to meet someone new and get a you know,

505
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 5: relationship that's right for them. But I started to feel

506
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 5: like I was in the middle. And at this point,

507
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 5: she Susie still hasn't hasn't come to the beach, But

508
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 5: whenever Justin talked about her, his whole demeanor changed, where

509
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 5: I started to have a gut feeling that there was

510
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,919
Speaker 5: still something there. Which is there? They just broke up.

511
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 5: They dated for a long time. It's not the craziest thing.

512
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 2: What was the timeframe we see in your interview you're

513
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 2: kind of like, I think it's only been two to

514
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 2: three months?

515
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 3: Was that what it had been?

516
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 4: I think?

517
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 5: So that's coming from him when I when I talked

518
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,959
Speaker 5: to Susie after, you know, we've connected since, like it

519
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 5: almost seems like it was more recent they that they together. Yeah,

520
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 5: but again not sure to tell. And you know, I

521
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 5: just really didn't want to be involved.

522
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:53,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, but also crucial information for you and kind of

523
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 2: other people dating them on the beach. I mean, if

524
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:57,959
Speaker 2: they say that they're ready, obviously you want to take

525
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 2: them at face value and trust that. But I mean

526
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 2: I can understand, and I'm sure Justin could also why

527
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 2: you had your hesitations totally.

528
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,479
Speaker 5: But again, like when I had the rose, he stood

529
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 5: ten toes down that he was fully moved on from

530
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 5: this relationship and ready to meet someone new, or he

531
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 5: wouldn't have.

532
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 4: Come to the beach.

533
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: Why not. Maybe this is just because I am a gambler,

534
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: but why not roll the dice and be like, you

535
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: know what, I didn't have much time with Jonathan or Kyle,

536
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: but we are only a few days in. Maybe something

537
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: will form within the next couple of days. Maybe take

538
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: a shot on one of them.

539
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, but then Justin would have gone home. I know. Oh,

540
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 3: you're saying, like, I'm justin go a different direction.

541
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, if if internally the Susie thing you knew was

542
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: always gonna bother you, why not maybe pivot and take

543
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 1: that chance.

544
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I regret it.

545
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 5: It's one of my I don't have a lot of regrets,

546
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 5: but that is a regret. And I was talking to

547
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,360
Speaker 5: my mom about that recently. I wish I think because

548
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 5: I had that one on one with Justin, for whatever

549
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 5: unknown reason, I felt like I owed him the Rose

550
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 5: because we got to open up about things. I had

551
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 5: the most time with him, and I just didn't have that.

552
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 4: With with Kyle or Jonathan.

553
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 5: But I think if I could go back, I would

554
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 5: pull Justin right before the rose ceremony and say, exactly

555
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 5: what you just said. These hesitations aren't going anywhere, and

556
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 5: it's kind of actually affecting me to be able to

557
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 5: immerse myself in this, and so because of that, I'm

558
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,959
Speaker 5: going to take a chance on Kyle or Jonathan and

559
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 5: I just in the moment, it all feels so much

560
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 5: pressure and we'd had the one on one.

561
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 4: It just I don't know.

562
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, in hindsight, it's always twenty twenty. I mean,

563
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 2: you're now looking back on it kind of yeah, understanding

564
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 2: that maybe he wasn't as ready as you thought he

565
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 2: was that first week, and like maybe you could have

566
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 2: furthered something with Kyle. But I think in that moment,

567
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 2: you're probably well, I've invested so much time in this person,

568
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 2: and I kind of know where their head is at

569
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 2: at least what they're telling me, Like, let's kind of

570
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 2: see where this can go.

571
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 4: Totally that's literally exactly what happened.

572
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: Okay, So going into the Rows ceremony, who would you

573
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 1: say is the strongest.

574
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,199
Speaker 4: Couple going into the Rose ceremony?

575
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 5: I would say Jess and Spencer, And I was her roommate,

576
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 5: so I got like a front row seat. They were

577
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:25,439
Speaker 5: just instantly connected. She has a very similar personality to him.

578
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 5: They're both so bubbly, Like it was just so obvious,

579
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,640
Speaker 5: like I think since I would like go to war

580
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 5: for Jess, like, and this is after knowing her for

581
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 5: two days, Like, it was just really sweet to watch.

582
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, they had really really good chemistry from that first conversation.

583
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,919
Speaker 5: Oh good, Like it was just like two pieces that

584
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 5: fit together and made a lot of sense, and I

585
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,719
Speaker 5: love them both, so I was really just happy. I

586
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 5: was so happy for her and him, you know, but

587
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 5: I was over in the corner, just like on the

588
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 5: show X on the Beach pretty much.

589
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been there.

590
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 2: What did you think of Yeah, that's okay.

591
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 3: What did you think of the game?

592
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 5: I think it was great to do the compatibility challenges,

593
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 5: like you get to see more of the person.

594
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,919
Speaker 4: And yeah, I thought it was actually really fun. I

595
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,200
Speaker 4: think some people were a little stressed about you could

596
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 4: like tell who was who with the silhouettes too.

597
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 3: Sorry, that's what Jess was saying.

598
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 2: She was like, based on like heights, anyone that was

599
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 2: in the standing pose, you could immediately kind of seemly.

600
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, but it was so fun, Like I think that's

601
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 5: the type of things we need to be doing, as

602
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 5: fun as it is to like sit in the pool

603
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,199
Speaker 5: and talk like you know that we get to know

604
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 5: them on a little deeper level.

605
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 4: And yeah, it was cute.

606
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 3: What did you think of the Hakeem Ricky fight?

607
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

608
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, I like I really enjoyed both of them. I

609
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,880
Speaker 5: think Hakim is like very He's passionate. He's a passionate man,

610
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 5: and I respect him for that, I, you know, I do.

611
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 5: I don't think I needed to get to that point.

612
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 5: It was a little heated in the moment, but you know,

613
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 5: everyone's on edge. Hakim was invited to this quite a while.

614
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 4: He's been waiting so long.

615
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 5: I'm sure because of that, he had what feels maybe

616
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 5: more pressure right because he was announced earlier.

617
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:08,880
Speaker 4: So I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt.

618
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 4: It was squashed pretty quickly.

619
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, it kind of translated as if you were watching it.

620
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,439
Speaker 2: To me, it looked like Ricky kind of made like

621
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 2: a casual dig at a keem, probably not thinking anything

622
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,239
Speaker 2: of it. Key might have been feeling some sensitivity and

623
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 2: like insecurity throughout that challenge and just that day in general,

624
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,199
Speaker 2: and it just escalated way past maybe where either of

625
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 2: them thought it was going to go exactly.

626
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 5: And I think they both, from what I remembered, didn't

627
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 5: have like a strong, super strong connection, like an immediate connection.

628
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 5: So there's probably some you know, feelings there too, because

629
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 5: there's so much build up to this, you know.

630
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely, who.

631
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:53,199
Speaker 2: Were you surprised went home? If anyone or were there

632
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 2: any roses that were handed out that shocked you.

633
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 5: I was surprised Sam m went home. I think he is,

634
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,400
Speaker 5: you know, he's great personality. He had the one on

635
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 5: one card, but he kind of had a disadvantage because

636
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 5: he came in and gave the date to Jess and

637
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 5: she had already established a connection with Spencer. So I think,

638
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 5: you know, Jess had so much fun on that date.

639
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 5: I think she just had a stronger connection with Spencer,

640
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 5: and so I think Sam was a little bit at

641
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 5: a loss, Like he came in and he was like, well,

642
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 5: who who am I? You know, who am I connecting

643
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 5: with here? It's all about timing too, Like when he

644
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:28,399
Speaker 5: came down to the beach, it was just kind of

645
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 5: like a weird time because I already had been a

646
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 5: lot of formal connections.

647
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was in a tough spot because I guess

648
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 2: he kind of like missed out on that first day

649
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 2: and then he comes down, he immediately takes Jess and

650
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 2: he doesn't really have time to like get to know

651
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 2: anyone else, to have like a secondary possibility to get

652
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:46,919
Speaker 2: a rose.

653
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 3: So that's hard.

654
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 2: We were actually bummed to see him go so early

655
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 2: because we thought there was like maybe something for him

656
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 2: to find someone.

657
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 5: I think he also deserved like a chance to retell

658
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 5: his story. I think on gen season he was portrayed

659
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 5: in a light that's not who he is. He seemed,

660
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 5: you know, he's come to Atlanta times. His friend Thomas

661
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,239
Speaker 5: lives there from his season, and so I've seen them

662
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 5: out and he is a really sweet guy. So I

663
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 5: was bummed he didn't get a chance to have like

664
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 5: his redemption story moment.

665
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,920
Speaker 4: But that's okay. You know, he can live his life

666
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 4: how he wants after this.

667
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know it's still.

668
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 2: He got a mini redemption, you know, like his time

669
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 2: on the show was short, but like he came across

670
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 2: like a gentleman and everyone seemed to have good interactions

671
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 2: with him, and like it least not enough, not enough,

672
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 2: but I feel like it leaves the audience at least

673
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 2: with a good taste in their mind.

674
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 4: Yeah.

675
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw out a hypothetical for you. Let's say

676
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: you know who Justin is, but you don't follow him

677
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 1: on Instagram or social media. You never spoke to Susie.

678
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 1: You know who she is, but you don't even know

679
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: they date it and you and Susie never never talked.

680
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 1: Do you think that would have changed everything for you?

681
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,959
Speaker 5: I think it would have had a significant impact on

682
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 5: how I was feeling.

683
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 2: It's super complicated. I think had you in this hypothatohole

684
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 2: not known about the Suzui situation, do you think Justin

685
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 2: would have brought it up on his own? Like what

686
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 2: was his approach to handling it?

687
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 5: A really good question because I believe I was the

688
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 5: first one that brought it up, because I brought up

689
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 5: the phone call. I talked to Jess the night before

690
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 5: our rescheduled date and I said, how do I bring

691
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 5: this up right? Like? And so I was like, I'm

692
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 5: going to just be really honest because I had the

693
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 5: call with her. We talked for a really long time,

694
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 5: and I wanted to get that out there. And so, yeah,

695
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 5: I don't know. I think the whole thing was just

696
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 5: kind of it was really making me spiral, is.

697
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 1: What I Yeah, I get that. I think, not that

698
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: you're asking for my advice, but I'm gonna I don't

699
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: want to throw it out there. I think the best

700
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:50,959
Speaker 1: way to go into Paradise is with the attitude of

701
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: fuck all these people, and I'm here solely for myself

702
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 1: to see if I could find a connection, because there

703
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: is a lot of that where you meet people, you're

704
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 1: half assed friends with people, and it could potentially ruin

705
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: something great for like this bullshit friendship.

706
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 2: I know, but I do feel like it's harder with

707
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 2: women and female friendships a little bit.

708
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: You always say that, but I'm a good friend. I'm

709
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 1: just saying. We all go on a dating show to

710
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 1: date each other, you know, it kind of has to

711
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 1: be like, you know what I'm doing me for everyone?

712
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 5: I guess yeah, you Honestly, Joe, if I had done that,

713
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 5: I wouldn't have given him the roads I would have

714
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 5: given me Eyler Jonathan and I can say that with

715
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 5: a hundred confidence.

716
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:38,560
