Speaker 2: Welcome to the Almost Famous Podcast.

4
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 3: We are here for something we've been waiting on for

5
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 3: four years.

6
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 2: Four years to do this.

7
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 3: At this moment that's actually very accurate. Is actually we've

8
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 3: been waiting four years for this moment. We're very excited

9
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 3: for this moment, and we hope you are too. But

10
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 3: we want to hear your thoughts and opinion, so please,

Speaker 3: email us, let us know what you're thinking of The

13
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 3: Golden Bachelor. We're here today to break down episode one

14
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 3: of The Golden Bachelor with our Golden Bachelor, Gary Ashley.

15
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 2: Take it away.

16
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 4: I feel like you should take it away because this

17
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,160
Speaker 4: is the show that you've been waiting for and wanting

18
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 4: to host and all that.

19
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 3: Okay, I think you should, Well, then I will. Here's

20
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,160
Speaker 3: the deal, Okay, Well, we look forward to going into

21
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 3: this show. Where we have been talking about for months

22
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 3: now is the idea that this show could transcend the

23
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 3: other shows because of storytelling piece. Now Night one, just

24
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 3: like every other Night one on any other show that

25
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 3: The Bachelor has done, is probably going to be the

26
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 3: weakest storytelling that we get. In fact, I think I

27
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 3: think any emotion that you felt watching episode one, and

28
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 3: my wife, you know, definitely felt the emotion. I felt

29
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 3: the emotion at times. I think, week after week, it's

30
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,119
Speaker 3: just going to increase, all right, would hope it would.

31
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 2: And this starts out.

32
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 3: And the reason I say this at the beginning is

33
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 3: because we get an in depth look right off the

34
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 3: bat of our golden bachelor Gary. We hear his story.

35
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 3: He's married forty three years to his high school sweetheart.

36
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 3: They have some beautiful kids, they have grandkids, and then

37
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 3: he retires and they build their dream home, and then

38
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, she becomes very sick, and a

39
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 3: week later she passes, and.

40
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 2: He's now left alone.

41
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 3: You know, he has his family, he has his grandkids,

42
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 3: but he's left alone. And I would imagine Ashley at

43
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 3: seventy now years old. I think he's seventy one to

44
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 3: be exact, but you know, she passed away in his sixties.

45
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 3: I would imagine that only is a feeling of deep,

46
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 3: deep grief and sadness and confusion, especially as you're into

47
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 3: a monumental season of life with somebody. But it's also

48
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 3: at some point when that grief and the sadness you know,

49
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 3: goes away and you become still sad and you're still

50
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 3: mourning the death of your loved one, but you're you're

51
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 3: moving on with life. I'm assuming it starts to get

52
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 3: very lonely because you a lot of the people I

53
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 3: know in their seventies and eighties, they just miss that partner.

54
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 3: And as Gary said it, like he just misses that

55
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 3: person to lay beside at night and maybe not say

56
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 3: a word, but that somebody else is there.

57
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, let me tell you that it was because of

58
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 4: Gary's story in the beginning and how absolutely emotional it

59
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 4: was that I actually I felt like almost too protective

60
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 4: of him, almost like nobody I didn't.

61
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 5: Like.

62
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 4: I was like, okay, I've never even though we've watched

63
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 4: like you know, former leads get broken up with the

64
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 4: season previous, I've never felt so protective over someone and

65
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 4: like feeling like no one like can compete, and like

66
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 4: he said, like he doesn't want whoever he finds to

67
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 4: compete with his wife. He wants to like find like

68
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 4: a new and different type of love. But I almost

69
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 4: I just found myself being like not worthy, not worthy?

70
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 6: Are you like, do you think I'm cold hearted.

71
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 2: I don't think you're cold hearted at all.

72
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think you're pointing at any of

73
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 3: these women being like you're not worthy of him, You're

74
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 3: not worthy of And I think it in general, you

75
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 3: had a very similar feeling that Jessica had from the

76
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 3: very beginning, which her very first tears at Rashid, she goes,

77
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 3: who's taking care of him? Like like, I think it's

78
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 3: a similar feeling of like, this is a sweet man,

79
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 3: and he is obviously not looking for fame, He's not

80
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 3: desiring fortune. All these things that I think the Bachelor

81
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 3: started to get criticized for as of recent are out

82
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 3: of the question for him.

83
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 2: You know, fame might.

84
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 3: Feel good for a bit, this attention might feel fun

85
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 3: and fascinating, but he's not looking for the fortunes. He's

86
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 3: not looking for the Instagram deals. He's in this for

87
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 3: this deep desire that maybe I could try something different

88
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 3: to spark something up in my life at this age

89
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 3: when excitement. You know, you don't get a lot anew

90
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 3: in your seventies. They're not a lot of things that

91
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 3: happened to you in your seventies that are new to you.

92
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 3: Maybe a grandchild right, You've never experienced being a grandfather,

93
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 3: you know, grandparent before, but this is new for all

94
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 3: of these people, especially for him, who is leading this

95
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 3: franchise and leading this new show and getting the interviews

96
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 3: now on television and having to respond to questions and

97
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 3: figure out some like sneaky ways to answer them. And

98
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 3: Jessica just starts crysch, Who's taking care of this man? Like,

99
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 3: because Ben, I know how they took care of the Siffer.

100
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 3: I like a fault, a default to thinking that the

101
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 3: daughters are I'm guessing they're not around for all of this.

102
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 2: I mean, Ashley, you know you've been around.

103
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 6: It, I mean throughout the actual process.

104
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, they they're not around for that. So they're not

105
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 3: traveling with him on a plane these interviews. I mean,

106
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 3: let's compare it for a second, okay, because I think

107
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 3: this is this is an interesting conversation to compare. I

108
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 3: think will have to through this whole season, at least

109
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 3: for season one, compare and contrast to my experience because

110
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 3: I think, you know, as the Bachelor, it might be

111
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 3: the closest thing that we know today to what he's

112
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 3: feeling now. Yeah, And I think that is something that

113
00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 3: I've had, I've you know, this is the first time

114
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 3: my wife and I've watched a Bachelor related show together

115
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 3: in our relationship, So that's a big deal to me.

116
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 3: And I had a really good time talking to Jessica

117
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 3: last night about my experience compared to what he's feeling,

118
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 3: or what it's like to walk into the mansion for

119
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 3: the first time, or what it's like to pull up

120
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 3: in the limo as the bachelor and to get out

121
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 3: and stand there as these women greet you and you're like,

122
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,559
Speaker 3: I don't I don't deserve this, or this is weird

123
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 3: for me. And so I'm sitting there last night and

124
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 3: I'm watching this, and I know how hard it was

125
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 3: for me. Yes, I'm never the one to say the

126
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 3: producers don't care. I've never said that, I never will.

127
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 2: I think they do. I think they do it in

128
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 2: the best.

129
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 3: Way they know how, and I don't know if it's

130
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 3: a good way, but it's the best way they know how.

131
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 3: It's not criticizing them, but for me it was. It

132
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 3: still to this day has some like effect on me personally.

133
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:55,479
Speaker 3: It's exhausting. You're breaking people's hearts, You're getting things said

134
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 3: about you that are very negative at time and can

135
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 3: really strike a chord with you. You're also getting things

136
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 3: very positive, like you're getting things said about you that

137
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 3: are very positive, and you don't know how to handle that.

138
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 3: You don't know like what to believe and what not

139
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 3: to believe. And at the end of the day, no

140
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 3: human being has training on how to be almost famous,

141
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 3: and this poor man at seventy years old is experience

142
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 3: in it for the first time. Now, yes, he has

143
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 3: some wisdom that I didn't have. He probably has some

144
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 3: you know, some ways in now getting life that he's

145
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 3: learned along the way that I don't know yet. But

146
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 3: he's also seventy years old and he's gone through heartbreak

147
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 3: and he doesn't know what he's getting himself into who's

148
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 3: taking care of him?

149
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 4: So are you sad and scared that he's not being

150
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 4: taken care of?

151
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 2: I think he is. I think the show is going

152
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 2: to learn. I think it's gonna be good for the show.

153
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 3: My response to this, and my response to Jessica was

154
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 3: I think I know and you know these people well

155
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 3: enough to know that they're not going to let a

156
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 3: seventy year old man and a bunch of sixty plus

157
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 3: year old women go through this in the same way

158
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 3: they allow twenty year olds to go through this. They're

159
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 3: just not Yeah, they're not. They're gonna have to step

160
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 3: up the game and care and in like emotional like

161
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 3: rehabilitation and allowing them to talk about their feelings and

162
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 3: their thoughts and about their disappointment. And it might just

163
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 3: be me, Ashley, it might just be me, but I did.

164
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 3: I got very emotional last night as I thought about

165
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 3: the times in my life that my parents have been

166
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 3: really excited for something, Like I know, you know, my

167
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 3: mom puts on the dress and she puts on the makeup.

168
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 3: My wedding is a good example, and my dad puts

169
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 3: on a suit and he combs his hair, and I know,

170
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 3: and I know for me, when I feel really excited

171
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 3: for something, right, like maybe the Bachelor's a good example

172
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 3: of that, or my wedding day is a great example

173
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 3: of that. Still, and you get really pumped for something

174
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 3: and there's a lot of expectation and there's a lot

175
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 3: of nerves, And I wonder what it'd feel like if

176
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 3: I was in my sixties or seventies and I haven't

177
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 3: felt those that excitement a long time, Like if I've

178
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 3: been desiring it and craving it and praying for it,

179
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 3: and I just haven't felt it. I've been saying, like,

180
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 3: I want something to happen in my life that allows

181
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 3: me to feel alive again. And then these women get

182
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 3: asked to be on the show, and they go to

183
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 3: their hotel rooms and they put on their dresses and

184
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,839
Speaker 3: they put on their makeup and they feel alive again.

185
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 3: But then, just like every season and we expect it,

186
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 3: there's a new depth now to letting these women go

187
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 3: to me. And there's probably a heaviness to Gary because

188
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 3: I think he probably feels that heaviness knowing that these

189
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 3: women gave up a lot, they took a lot of risk,

190
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 3: not only a their kids watching this, but then their

191
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 3: grandkids are watching this, and now I'm gonna have to

192
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 3: send you home. Like for me, I knew these girls

193
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 3: would be all right. Like they're twenty years old, they're beautiful,

194
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 3: they'll be fine, They'll find somebody.

195
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 2: There's not for me. But this is a very different.

196
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 3: Situation, and I think it brings a weight to this

197
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 3: show that I hope the show can bring out. I

198
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 3: hope every week I feel that emotion watching this, because

199
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 3: it makes it a beautiful hour of my life when

200
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 3: I can feel that with him again.

201
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 4: Ben, this is like one of those scenarios where I'm

202
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 4: just like not even really going to respond to because

203
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 4: I think what you said was just great and you

204
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 4: really kind of opened my eyes to reading the show

205
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 4: in a way that I don't think that I I

206
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 4: did not I did. I didn't think about how it

207
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 4: just like the I didn't think about the way.

208
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 2: I mean, but you know how it is. I mean

209
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 2: I think to yeah, because like I.

210
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 4: Don't know, because I was always just I was like

211
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 4: directly comparing to my experience and being like, oh, okay,

212
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 4: this is this is so crazy.

213
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 6: This is just my point.

214
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 4: This is how I watched it, my point of view,

215
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 4: which is wrong now and I can like realize.

216
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 6: After you just said it's like totally wrong. I've just no,

217
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 6: I think it's right. I think I actually think it's wrong.

218
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 4: When you when I am like young, you know, I'm

219
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 4: in my twenties, like I think, like, oh, I get

220
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 4: a limited from the Bachelor, Like oh my god, my

221
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 4: dreams have been crushed, like total dreams crushed, Like I'm

222
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,719
Speaker 4: gonna die alone. Nothing's going to compare this experience, like

223
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 4: I did it, and like, you know, I'm talking about

224
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 4: like the girls who like really nothing came much of

225
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,359
Speaker 4: it first night or second nighters.

226
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 6: I mean, like I haven't.

227
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 4: Then I'm embarrassed. But then I'm thinking about these people

228
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 4: as if they're more mature than to feel those emotions.

229
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 4: And they're like, ah, you know what, cool experience didn't

230
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 4: work out for me.

231
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 6: He wasn't my guy.

232
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 4: Because I think from there, yeah, just after like all

233
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 4: that life, you're like, oh, now that was just glad

234
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 4: to have experienced it. You know that they say, don't

235
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 4: cry because it's over, but like, smile because it happened.

236
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 4: I feel like they're like truly just smiling because it happened.

237
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 4: And then I'm also thinking like if I'm at that

238
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 4: age and like I have well, I'm particularly thinking of

239
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 4: the loss of a spouse and like say I'm one

240
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 4: of the widows, I'm going to be like, oh it

241
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 4: wasn't him, Well that's too bad. Again, great experience, like

242
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 4: I had the love of my life, Like oh I don't.

243
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 6: I don't know.

244
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 4: That's just how I would think of That's how I

245
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 4: think of it from being a thirty five year old

246
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 4: watching it. But you can also spend it and think

247
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 4: about how you've thought of it, because I think that

248
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 4: when you're younger and you're like so striving to have

249
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 4: the love of your life, that in these people women's cases,

250
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 4: they may not be looking for like that great love

251
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 4: and more just like for companionship and fun and like

252
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 4: you're not do it. You're not like there to find

253
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,719
Speaker 4: the person that you're gonna have and raise a family with,

254
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 4: but like more like have your quote twilight years with

255
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 4: and you're like, oh, maybe I can do that with

256
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 4: the family that I created with another person, and like

257
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 4: I won't need like the actual spouse.

258
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 2: Well, think about this.

259
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 6: Because there's two different ways to look of it.

260
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 3: I got to make this like terribly heavy, and we're

261
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 3: gonna get into breaking down the show in just a second.

262
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 6: This is the person you're gonna die with. That's that

263
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 6: what you're gonna say.

264
00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 2: Oh god, yeah, I mean there's a there is a illness.

265
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 3: Is to show that I think I personally and not

266
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 3: maybe And I think there are probably women that did

267
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 3: this show that probably responded the same way you did.

268
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 3: That was cool, that was fun. I'm glad I did it.

269
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 3: I'm going home. And this was a late night and

270
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 3: I'm tired and I'm going to take a break.

271
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 2: I'm sure that.

272
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 3: I'm sure that's the case for some, but for others.

273
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 3: I do think there's a lot going into this, and

274
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 3: it's just something about It's it's just a something about

275
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 3: last night hit me where I'm thinking about these women

276
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 3: and preparing with their daughters on how to flirt with

277
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 3: a man again, Like how yeah.

278
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 4: I was like, oh gosh, that's the most stressful thing

279
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 4: I've can ever imagine.

280
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 3: Like these women crushed it last night out of the lemos.

281
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 3: They crushed it in the conversations. They were not only

282
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 3: beautiful and fantastic, but they were a funny and they

283
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 3: tried new things getting out of the limos, and they

284
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 3: were flirty and and I'm like, now you know again,

285
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 3: will you? And I might have experience when we started

286
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 3: this show in doing that and dating and larning and

287
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 3: all those things, right, we were kind of skilled. We

288
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 3: had the practice at the time we were in the

289
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 3: dating pool base we did.

290
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 4: But did we have the inherent confidence that it takes

291
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 4: because like you know, how they all you see those memes,

292
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 4: it's like twenties, like just crippling with anxiety thirties, don't

293
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 4: really care what Like I'm fully embracing myself forties is

294
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 4: like I don't care what anybody else thinks.

295
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 6: So also like maybe I don't know.

296
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 4: I'd love to see myself at sixty five, just in compare,

297
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 4: I don't want a date at sixty five, but I

298
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 4: would be interested to know whether I find it more

299
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 4: comfortable at that age versus at twenty five.

300
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 3: And I think that's going to be the best question

301
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 3: of the show for me, because I don't know how

302
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 3: to answer that. I don't have parents who aren't together.

303
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 3: I haven't seen a lot of sixties. I mean, last

304
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 3: night was probably the first time in my life I

305
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 3: saw two seventy year old's makeout. That's probably the first

306
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 3: time I've ever seen I can't remember the last time.

307
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 3: And so I think one of the questions for me

308
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 3: through this show will be what does it look like

309
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 3: to be in your sixties and seventies and dating?

310
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 2: Is there a confidence?

311
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 3: Maybe there's an insecurity still, maybe there's like so much

312
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 3: of a desire that like it comes off as insecure.

313
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 3: I think this will, you know, just like The Bachelor

314
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 3: and The Bachelorette in its heyday was kind of this

315
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 3: like really cool social experiment where you get to see

316
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 3: how people reacted with each other in different situations, and

317
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 3: you got to learn kind of about human behavior, and

318
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 3: we kind of saw it all by now, right, we've

319
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 3: seen how twenty year olds react to each other. That's

320
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 3: why everybody's wanting, you know, people in their thirties, people

321
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 3: a little more mature, to go on the show so

322
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 3: they could see how thirty year olds react in dating situations.

323
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 3: Now we get to do the same thing, but with

324
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 3: people in their sixties and seventies, we get to see

325
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 3: maybe they are more confident, maybe they do let their

326
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 3: hair down a little bit. You know, last night, I

327
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 3: would say it was probably pointing to Yes, confidence is

328
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 3: definitely a consistent theme throughout all of these women's lives.

329
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 3: I can't say that yet about our Golden Bachelor. I

330
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 3: think he still has some insecurity, which makes sense because well,

331
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 3: I think he just feels overwhelmed by the fact that

332
00:15:55,760 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 3: he has twenty women coming to date him, and so

333
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 3: he's probably just overwhelmed more than anything. But we're gonna

334
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 3: see if what you think is true. If yes, people

335
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 3: in their sixties and seventies do get more confident as

336
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 3: they get older when it comes to dating.

337
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 4: Alrighty, well, the first woman out of the limo. My goodness,

338
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 4: she's Edith and she's so pretty. She doesn't really make

339
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 4: a splash night one. She wore that golden dress, which

340
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 4: was great move by well her fashion senses, but also

341
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 4: for the producers to be like, yes, that dress, go

342
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 4: with that dress, because this is the Golden Bachelor moment

343
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 4: where he goes, we're making history. You are the first

344
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 4: woman out of the limo for the Golden Bachelor.

345
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 6: Who I am?

346
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 4: And yeah, she's just beautiful, makes a nice, classy first impression,

347
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 4: and so does Ellen. Like Ellen, I think she might

348
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 4: be my I think she might be my choice for

349
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 4: him if I had to choose right now, which is

350
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,439
Speaker 4: obviously very early on. She had a beautiful turquoise like

351
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 4: big flower.

352
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,360
Speaker 6: One sided dress.

353
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,880
Speaker 4: And she's the one who yelled her best friend's name

354
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,479
Speaker 4: out because her best friend, who she's been friends with

355
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 4: for sixty years, is going through cancer and this is

356
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 4: like an adventure that they kind of took on together

357
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 4: to get her on the show.

358
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 3: Now, we did see really like Ellen, We did see

359
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 3: at the end of the episode that her friend did

360
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 3: pass away. This episode was dedicated to her friends, So

361
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 3: I didn't see that.

362
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 2: I do want to highlight that, you know.

363
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 3: No, that's a new element of the show, right, and

364
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 3: it's you know, death doesn't escape any of us.

365
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 2: And I think.

366
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 3: It's a new element of the show again where to

367
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 3: see her?

368
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, I didn't see this because I was watching

369
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 4: on TVR No No.

370
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 3: So you know, there's there's gonna be these storylines. There's

371
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,479
Speaker 3: gonna be storylines that make us like it does it

372
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,479
Speaker 3: makes us stop for a second.

373
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:06,719
Speaker 7: You know.

374
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 3: There's a news article today And I'll pause here and

375
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 3: I'll just interrupt and say, there's a news article today

376
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 3: that was kind of like hating on this Golden Bachelor's show.

377
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 3: It came from a big outlet. I won't name out

378
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 3: the outlet because that's just not fair. I guess it

379
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 3: would be fair. It's public and journalism. But there was

380
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 3: and it said that the Golden Bachelor pretty much missed

381
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,159
Speaker 3: on a golden opportunity to do something different. And I

382
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 3: just feel like that is very premature, Like you can't

383
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 3: say that after night one.

384
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 6: It's premature.

385
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 3: You cannot say that after night one. We don't know,

386
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 3: and last night and yes, I had a lot of anticipation.

387
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 3: I had a lot of excitement. Nobody that listens to

388
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 3: our show did not know that. I really want to

389
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 3: be involved in this show because I do think it's

390
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 3: beautiful in so many ways, and it can probably be

391
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,360
Speaker 3: really beautiful, and I hope the show did a good

392
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 3: job at making it beautiful because I have no idea

393
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 3: at this point. But I think if you look at

394
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 3: Twitter and you look at in and you read the

395
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,959
Speaker 3: articles from like critics, I think people had a general

396
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 3: consensus where they felt something more watching this show than

397
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 3: they have in years watching Rally television, and so I

398
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 3: don't think they've missed the mark yet. I can't be

399
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 3: a critic that says that because it's one premature. In

400
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 3: two as you're mentioning, as you run through the women

401
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 3: that stepped out of Limo, there was a depth that

402
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 3: we don't get to see every season.

403
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I totally agree with you. Yeah, they haven't

404
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 4: missed it yet. It was good, emotional first episode. I

405
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 4: can't imagine where they would have would have done differently

406
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 4: this first episode. It's all about going to be about

407
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 4: these one on ones to me, so what they're going

408
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 4: to talk about in the one on ones and how

409
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 4: the one ones are going to make us feel so

410
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 4: much different because you're.

411
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 6: Like, oh, this was this is heavy.

412
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,119
Speaker 4: I mean, we see a lot of heavy life stuff

413
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 4: on one on ones in the younger version, but they're

414
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 4: just going to have a lot more to recap about life.

415
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 3: There's gonna be like, in these conversations, tell me your

416
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 3: life story.

417
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 2: It's like how much time you got?

418
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well I was born here. No, Like, it's

419
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 3: gonna be different. And I think two, you and I

420
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 3: have desired.

421
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 2: This for years.

422
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 3: You've been a fan of this show for longer than

423
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 3: I have, but I've been a fan of the show

424
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 3: for a while. You know, I think last night fell

425
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 3: very similar to the early seasons of The Bachelor and Bachelorette.

426
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, for me, there's some characters that I'm

427
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 3: really invested into. And so obviously you just mentioned the

428
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 3: first two a Lemma, what other women I guess really

429
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 3: stood out to you at night on Night one that

430
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 3: you're like, I want to see more of them?

431
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 4: All right, Yeah, let's go through the big ones, the

432
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 4: ones that, like, you know you finished Night one, you

433
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 4: remember their names or you remember something memorable from them. Sandra,

434
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:57,919
Speaker 4: who incredible? How is she seventy? She looks incredible. She

435
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 4: is the one that does breath the work with him,

436
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 4: but just goesfward.

437
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 6: And it was kind of weird. Oh what's your take

438
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:08,719
Speaker 6: on that?

439
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,880
Speaker 4: Uh? I think she apparently like has a tendency to curse.

440
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 4: She likes cursing. She talks about that later in the episode.

441
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,639
Speaker 4: It may have made more sense talked about earlier in

442
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 4: the episode because.

443
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 6: I was like, is she what word is she saying?

444
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 3: Is she seems?

445
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 4: I was like, the only word I can really imagine.

446
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 6: Her saying is the F word right now? Because she's

447
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:26,880
Speaker 6: not gonna say no.

448
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 3: I imagine there just needed to be more explanation of what, like.

449
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 2: I'm imagining, like she's learned in her life.

450
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 3: That's like, that's in a way a contemplative practice that

451
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 3: if she says it, it like releases something inside of

452
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 3: her and some like it allows her to get some

453
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 3: peace because she's like breathing out the anger something. I

454
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 3: don't know, But we just didn't get an explanation.

455
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 6: That wouldn't have been the best first impression for me.

456
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 3: No, it would have thrown me off. I'd have been like,

457
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 3: and I think also like this dude's I know where

458
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,679
Speaker 3: he's from. He's from thirty minutes from my hometown. Like

459
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 3: he's from small Tenant. I don't think he's used to that.

460
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 3: Maybe he is, I don't, I known't. Maybe they're lakes

461
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 3: different than the lake I grew up on, but like

462
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 3: people are usually a little more like subdued in uh

463
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 3: and how they converse. But yes, I think it probably

464
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 3: threw him off. But obviously he wasn't that uninterested in it.

465
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 4: No, definitely not.

466
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 6: She got a rose.

467
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 4: Next up is a very memorable person, Leslie. She comes

468
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 4: out of the limos, she's got a walker trying to

469
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 4: be frail, and he goes so sweetly, do you need help?

470
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 4: Thinking like they actually casted a woman who was like

471
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 4: needing a walker and looks like your prototypical like grandmother,

472
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 4: and she was like no, And then she whips it

473
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 4: off and she's got this tiny little dress on, and

474
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 4: she happens to be an ex of princes. She lives

475
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 4: in Minnesota, which he's famous, which he famously lived in,

476
00:22:55,160 --> 00:23:00,239
Speaker 4: and he wrote the song Sexy Dancer about her, so

477
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 4: like she says, you know when she goes, I'm a dancer, choreographer.

478
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 4: She's sound like a dancer choor she is a like

479
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 4: this is a woman who this defines her.

480
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 2: She kind of blew us away.

481
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 4: She's not gonna be with Gary though. This is not

482
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 4: Gary's person.

483
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 2: I don't know.

484
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know what he's into yet, we haven't.

485
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,439
Speaker 3: I can't say that. I mean, she is like I

486
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 3: can't even I don't even know who to compare it

487
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 3: to from our our the like from the franchise that

488
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 3: we'd all be familiar with. I would say she's similar

489
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 3: to a Victoria Fuller to me.

490
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 4: Because she's like that's sexy, like overtly sexy.

491
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

492
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 3: I think she's probably just gonna be like somebody you're

493
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 3: like goodness, gracious, like you exude a confidence in yourself

494
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 3: and you're beautiful.

495
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 2: And I think you're.

496
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,919
Speaker 3: Gonna be around a while because he's gonna be like,

497
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 3: I have never seen anybody like you.

498
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

499
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 6: Let's see who else do we have?

500
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,640
Speaker 4: April she's the one with which, you know, sorry, I'm

501
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 4: gonna say it because if I don't, you know, I

502
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,679
Speaker 4: got to say these things. She's got a little work done, and.

503
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,199
Speaker 3: That's probably going to be you know, it seemed like

504
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 3: Twitter was saying that was a consistent theme. I never

505
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 3: see that kind of stuff. I'm sure Jessica probably pointed

506
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 3: out if I would have asked her, I don't pay,

507
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 3: I don't I don't know what to look for.

508
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, Jared would have had no idea. I was like, oh, yeah,

509
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 4: that's a nose job right there. And there was like

510
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 4: some filler in a lot of these ladies cheeks that

511
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 4: were actually quite obvious to me.

512
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,439
Speaker 6: But you know what, go for it.

513
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,959
Speaker 4: I am. I. I am a proponent, as we all know.

514
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 4: I talk about it very openly. But yeah, April is

515
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 4: also a handful. She says that she's quite eccentric. She

516
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 4: walked in with an Easter basket because she used to

517
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 4: grow up on a hen farm.

518
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 2: The little dance was kind of cue, like the little

519
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 2: shake cue.

520
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 4: She is such a bachelor girl, you know, she's just

521
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 4: she was cast because she is a character. Teresa didn't

522
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 4: love her entrance as well, because she is just a

523
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:10,400
Speaker 4: little bit too. She was just like a little too

524
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 4: coming in hot for me. She said, it's I came

525
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 4: in with my birthday suit because it's my birthday. And

526
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 4: then she like reveals like takes off this coat and

527
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 4: like basically reveals like like a nude body suit underneath.

528
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 4: And I was like, okay, girl, like just relax a

529
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 4: little bit. What do you think?

530
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 2: Well, she also is the first to kiss Gary, right, so,

531
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 2: but she.

532
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 6: Just came on too strong all over.

533
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 3: But yeah, I don't know if that's too strong, Like

534
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 3: I don't know he liked it. He liked it, I think.

535
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 3: I mean kind of like we were talking about earlier,

536
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 3: what if in your seventies, when you're dating, you're like,

537
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 3: I don't want to play the games anymore, Like just

538
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 3: are you into this or not?

539
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 2: Let's dive in. Let's figure this out.

540
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 3: Like we don't got a ton of time to like

541
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 3: sit in chat, like if you like me, let's go

542
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 3: for it.

543
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 6: See that's still.

544
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 4: Something that like I can't relate to at the stage

545
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 4: because I'm still give me all the heart to get.

546
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 4: I love hard to get. Jared even tells me it's

547
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,120
Speaker 4: like this day, He's like, I still make you play

548
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 4: hard to get. Still, I still make you quick for it.

549
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 2: Goodness gracious, Well it's fun.

550
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 3: You know, every every relationship has their own dance, and

551
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 3: I don't know what it's like in their in your seventies.

552
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 3: I mean every season. If you think about how we

553
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 3: break down this show, at some point we say it's

554
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,880
Speaker 3: obvious that the lead is into this, and we're able

555
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 3: to pretty much identify what the lead's into. Either it's confidence,

556
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 3: or it's vulnerability, or it's insecurity, or if they just

557
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 3: are really attracted to like the physical parts of people.

558
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 3: We don't know yet. With Gary, we don't know at

559
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 3: all what he could be into. It could be if

560
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 3: you're forward, I'm I'm loving it.

561
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 7: Oh.

562
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 4: Let's mention though, that she does give him a birthday

563
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 4: cupcake during their one on one and she definitely alluded, Oh,

564
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 4: he gave it to her. Okay, he definitely alluded to

565
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 4: him wanting a kiss, because didn't he say something like,

566
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 4: what would you to clean off the frosting from my family?

567
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 2: That was hard. It was hard for you to watch.

568
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 3: However, Kudos to Gary, Like this dude is pulling out

569
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 3: all the stops and he definitely is not acting like

570
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 3: he has not flirted in years. He crushed the best

571
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 3: in recent memory for me. He has crushed the opening

572
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 3: night conversations and lines and filler space and listening. He

573
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 3: crushed it. He crushed it here, like I want to

574
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,199
Speaker 3: kiss what you? Would you help me clean it off

575
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 3: if I put a little icing on his face And

576
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 3: then he does it, and then she does it with him,

577
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 3: and it's.

578
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 2: Hard to watch. I didn't love it, but I think

579
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 2: it's cute.

580
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 6: Overall.

581
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 4: He made it seem like he was like very open

582
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 4: to every woman. You know how sometimes when you're watching

583
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 4: The Bachelor, you can tell that like he's just like, ah,

584
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 4: this is not gonna work out for her. Oh no,

585
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 4: there's nothing there. He just seemed to be genuinely willing

586
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 4: to hear everyone out. Like I wouldn't have been intimidated

587
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 4: by him if I was one of the late because like,

588
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 4: I really think that he was, like he's like super

589
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 4: just accepting in open ears.

590
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 2: Oh I think so.

591
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 3: I mean, I think his listening last night is a

592
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 3: good example to all of us on how to listen

593
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 3: and how to respond. Yeah, the last few that stood

594
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,959
Speaker 3: out to us, I think for me was Aunt Chippy.

595
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 3: Obviously Jimmy Kimmel's aunt is hilarious.

596
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 4: Plant not a real not a real contestent.

597
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know, I've never known them the plant,

598
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 3: but I bet I'm guessing they said like, hey, will

599
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 3: you just come on? You can you only you only

600
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 3: need to be there for night one and she said, yeah,

601
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 3: I'm man, just be yourself and she said I'm.

602
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 2: Good with that.

603
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 3: I just watched her and I was like, I want

604
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 3: to be at the Kimmel Family thanksgivings, Like I can't

605
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 3: imagine how funny and weird and wacky they are, but

606
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 3: they obviously are something special. You you know, Faith pulls

607
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 3: in in a motorcycle that is just very impressive to me.

608
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 4: Life with me is going to be like quite the

609
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 4: ride or something like that.

610
00:28:55,680 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 8: She had a cute one, so I mean a lot

611
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 8: of women stood out.

612
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 3: I also think we would be doing it as service

613
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 3: because we won't get to talk about it again if

614
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 3: we don't mention that. Matt James's mom was obviously on

615
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 3: the episode very little screen time, very little. I mean,

616
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 3: we didn't really see much from her other than kind

617
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 3: of telling her or telling Gary, hey, my son was

618
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 3: the bachelor, and he seems to know that, like he

619
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 3: seems he like shakes his head like I knew I

620
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 3: recognize you, or.

621
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 6: He didn't make it seem like it was a big deal.

622
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 3: No, I think it should have been a bigger deal maybe,

623
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 3: But you think they understood it though, because I thought

624
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 3: that he took it in but that didn't react to it.

625
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 4: So I was like, maybe he just doesn't get it.

626
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe he does, doesn't.

627
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 3: I mean it was at this point she was late

628
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 3: in the night, and so he kind of probably just

629
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 3: was tired. I'm shocked you went home night one because

630
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 3: I felt like they should.

631
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 4: Have bonded over some like I wanted this. It felt

632
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 4: very distant the experience, but they obviously didn't hit it

633
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 4: off off it was.

634
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 3: She was probably the one that I watched and I

635
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 3: was like, they have nothing, Like there's no chemistry between

636
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 3: the two of them, and I'm surprised. She's a beautiful person,

637
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 3: but like it was very clear to me that like

638
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 3: they had no chemistry.

639
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess not.

640
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, So Ashley, we're going into the night.

641
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 3: What stood out to you kind of either emotionally or

642
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 3: like holistically as you watched this episode when it came

643
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 3: to the cocktail parties, any stand out to you where

644
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 3: with Gary and the women.

645
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 4: Well, first off, I want to mention that it does

646
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 4: feel like like a blink of an eye that it

647
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 4: was over. So it's an hour long show, not a

648
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 4: two hour long show, which really means it's forty minutes.

649
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 4: So they did cram in a lot in forty minutes.

650
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 4: And I think the place that we missed the most

651
00:30:55,240 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 4: context with that chop was the cocktail party. The conversations

652
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 4: went by fast, we didn't see a ton of them.

653
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 4: But to answer your question, the moments that I like

654
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 4: look back and I remember were obviously the two kisses,

655
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 4: the one with Theresa and the cupcake, then the other

656
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 4: one with Faith who ends up getting his first impression Rose.

657
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 4: To me, that feels like more of a genuine I mean, yeah,

658
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 4: she got the first impression to wear, so obviously it's

659
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 4: more of like a genuine reaction connection there. I think

660
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 4: it's more mutual. And then again, like I really like Ellen.

661
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 4: She just has like a really good energy about her.

662
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 4: She's like very pretty, and then she also just like

663
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 4: feels she just feels like warm and like happy and

664
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 4: smiling outgoing. I don't know, there's just something about that

665
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 4: I really like take to her on.

666
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 2: And then.

667
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 4: Who else then there was Sandra explains that she likes

668
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 4: the the F bombs. Yeah, was there an anything that?

669
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 4: Was there any other conversation that you that jumps out

670
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 4: of you.

671
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 3: Well, I think I look at the show, you know,

672
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 3: I was looking at the show at this point, analyzing Gary,

673
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 3: because these conversations are sure, they're at some level meaningless

674
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 3: when it comes to the large scope of the show,

675
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 3: because they fly by. No matter if you're on you know,

676
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 3: the Bachelor and Bachelorette, or if you're on the Golden Bachelor.

677
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 3: You're looking for instant chemistry. On night one, it's really

678
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 3: the lead saying whom I'm most attracted to. I don't

679
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 3: know a lot about you yet, but whom I'm most

680
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 3: attracted to. And I do think Gary showed last night

681
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 3: that he was into people that made more of a

682
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 3: concerted effort to get him doing something fun and get

683
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 3: him doing something different than everybody else.

684
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 4: Well, Leslie did dance with them, and.

685
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 3: I think that stood out to him. I think that

686
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 3: his listening was incredible, just the eye contact that he

687
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 3: made in the in the ways that he was responding

688
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 3: to their stories and their reasonings for being there. I

689
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 3: mean a lot of the reasonings for being there was

690
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 3: just like, Hey, I think you're great, Gary, Like you

691
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 3: are a dream.

692
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 2: I am so into you.

693
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 3: This is the best night of my life, people were saying,

694
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 3: And I think he did a great job at navigating

695
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 3: the beautiful moments and the hard moments. And then I think,

696
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 3: obviously with the Rose ceremony, you see him navigate that

697
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 3: really well. He got emotional. This is gonna be hard

698
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 3: for him, and we're going to talk about that as

699
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 3: we talk about the preview for the rest of the season.

700
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 6: And he got.

701
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 4: He got. He also got emotional during some of the conversations,

702
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:32,239
Speaker 4: which is really nice to say. And I just want

703
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 4: to before you go on to say that, like, here's

704
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 4: a difference between our age group versus this age group.

705
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 6: These people say things.

706
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 4: Like, oh my god, this is the best day of

707
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 4: my life, like I couldn't wait, Like you know, like

708
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 4: you can show like so much like interest in somebody

709
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 4: without it coming off as like creepy or try too hard,

710
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 4: Like they just love to hear that they're wanted, Whereas

711
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 4: like if somebody were to say to us, be like,

712
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 4: oh my god, I've been watching you and I just

713
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 4: I can't be like, Okay, well can we play a

714
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 4: little can we play a little game here?

715
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 3: Well, I mean I remember conversations during The Bachelor and

716
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 3: Bachelor when people will say this is the hardest thing

717
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,319
Speaker 3: I've ever had to do, And you're like what, yeah,

718
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 3: Like what are you talking about? Like this is the

719
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 3: hardest thing. You just got to let go from reality

720
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,760
Speaker 3: Tullivan show, and this is the hardest moment of your life,

721
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 3: Like you're doing our eight then like you're fine.

722
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 6: I know that's me. I was doing fine. I've had

723
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,959
Speaker 6: a quite the quite the life.

724
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 3: And you know, for Gary and these women when they

725
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 3: say this is the best night of my life, like

726
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 3: that holds some weight.

727
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:35,360
Speaker 6: That really does.

728
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 4: Said it's the best day of my life in a

729
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:39,240
Speaker 4: long time.

730
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,359
Speaker 3: Sure, I mean, but they hold some way to hold

731
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 3: some holds some some days in there. My favorite part

732
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 3: of the whole episode, the best part of the whole

733
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 3: There's two two moments sit out to me. I guess

734
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 3: one is I think Gary is drinking orange juice at

735
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 3: the cocktail parties. I don't think it's a screwdriver.

736
00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 4: Much much needed conversation topic.

737
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 3: I think it's just straight orange juice, like and there

738
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 3: is no vodka in that it is it is not

739
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 3: at all. It is as orange as orange can be.

740
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:09,760
Speaker 3: And if there's vodka in it, it's like a splash.

741
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,240
Speaker 3: He might be a non drinker.

742
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 4: He might be, or he just didn't want to drink.

743
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 4: He probably wanted to drink orange juice at six am

744
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:17,160
Speaker 4: because it was six.

745
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 2: He could have been one to drink orangejuice.

746
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 3: But the fact that he had a glass of orange

747
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 3: juice hilarious is so great for this The next is

748
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 3: I mean, I love some of the women's comments, like

749
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 3: my contacts heard, I just want to take him out,

750
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,440
Speaker 3: Like that's just great stuff. I feel that at this age.

751
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 3: But the best moment for the whole show for me,

752
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 3: the best moment, Yeah, what was Gary the Gary the

753
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 3: Bachelor dancing around looking over his shoulder and says does

754
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 3: anybody have as much fun as we do?

755
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 7: Like?

756
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,480
Speaker 2: Or does anybody know how to have fun like we do? Like?

757
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:58,280
Speaker 3: It was something like you would hear your grandfather say,

758
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 3: as you're like having a dance party in your grandparents'

759
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 3: living room as you watch like a movie that they

760
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 3: know you love, and they go and like they bring

761
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 3: out the ice cream with the sprinkles on it because

762
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 3: they just want to spoil you, and they just say,

763
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 3: does anybody have as much fun as we do?

764
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,479
Speaker 2: And you're like, no, I love coming to your home.

765
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 6: Hey, I feel so bad.

766
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 4: I like, you guys texted that and I was like, Oh,

767
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 4: that didn't resonate with me the way it did with

768
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 4: you guys.

769
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:28,280
Speaker 6: It's like made you just cry. It's like so sweet.

770
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 4: Though I totally appreciate the moment.

771
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 2: It is so innocent.

772
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 3: It was an incredibly innocent moment. I think that's a

773
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:40,400
Speaker 3: good way to end this podcast, is you know, until

774
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,800
Speaker 3: we talk about the preview for the rest of the season.

775
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 3: I think this show on Night one, to me, if

776
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 3: I were to explain in some words, it was innocent,

777
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 3: It was emotional, it was exciting, and I felt the

778
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 3: whole thing for the whole hour that it was on television.

779
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 3: And for that, I'm thankful. I don't get they usually

780
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 3: say that about a show that I spend this much

781
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 3: time watching. For this podcast, I felt it. And I'm

782
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:08,959
Speaker 3: excited for the rest of the season. And I'm also

783
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 3: very excited that I think Jessica and I will watch

784
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,800
Speaker 3: every episode together and have something to talk about it, because, yeah,

785
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,359
Speaker 3: this is my job, is breaking down this show. And

786
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 3: she doesn't love the show, and I get that, and

787
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 3: I get reasons why, like it probably brings up some

788
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 3: weird feelings. Yeah, but this is different enough where she's like,

789
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 3: I love this, I love the idea of it. And

790
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 3: Night one was beautiful, and I hope the show continues

791
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 3: to be beautiful. I hope in four weeks we're saying

792
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 3: they're nailing it, like this is so good and we're

793
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 3: not saying they've missed the mark, and I don't think

794
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 3: they will. I think I think this show is such

795
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 3: an easy show to produce.

796
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 2: I really do. I think it's the easiest show that

797
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 2: they've ever done.

798
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 7: Much.

799
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, you just get them out there and you get

800
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 3: them saying stuff, and they say the funny stuff, they

801
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 3: say the weird stuff. They're aggressive, they're awkward, and it's beautiful.

802
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 4: I also feel like they probably have a lot less

803
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 4: heart of a time getting people to talk about, like

804
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 4: their emotional stories in their life. You know, they're just

805
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:05,879
Speaker 4: gonna serve it up. They don't even have to really ask.

806
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 2: I don't care.

807
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 3: I look, try to judge a seventy year old, I know, like,

808
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 3: come on, try to hate on a seven year old

809
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 3: trying to date like kids like fools, Like that's not

810
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,840
Speaker 3: gonna be fun for anybody. Well, the sneak peak of

811
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:24,319
Speaker 3: the rest of the season is it is wild, it's captivating.

812
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 3: We obviously see very similar storylines that we see to

813
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 3: other seasons. It feels like now the new bread and

814
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 3: butter of the show, he's falling in love with multiple people. Ashley,

815
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 3: what do you think about that seventy year old allowing

816
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,320
Speaker 3: themselves to fall in love with multiple people?

817
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 6: Well, I'm not surprised.

818
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,360
Speaker 4: I'm dying to know how many weeks it took to

819
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 4: film this show, because we know it's significantly less than

820
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 4: the normal show, which is two months, which is already

821
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 4: really a very fast process, I feel like.

822
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:57,479
Speaker 6: But I also think at.

823
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 4: The same time as people are probably just like, he's

824
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 4: serving up the feelings super fast, so maybe the you know,

825
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 4: the reciprocation of the feelings happens faster. I feel like

826
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:09,919
Speaker 4: it's you know, how you were saying that the being

827
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 4: out of practice with all the heartbreak. It's like this

828
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 4: is this is where it's really sad, is when they

829
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 4: get to like the top something something top four.

830
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,399
Speaker 2: Or five, and you're like, I think you'll cry every rose.

831
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're like, oh my gosh, I'm not surprised to

832
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 4: hear that he's going to fall in love with multiple people,

833
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 4: not at all, No.

834
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, he just seems very emotionally available.

835
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 2: Well, I think they're diving in.

836
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 3: I think there's an intentionality to this thing that will

837
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,439
Speaker 3: make them open up their hearts more. Now, he does

838
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 3: have a line that we see that he says, you know,

839
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 3: he's talking about his wife passing away, So that was

840
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 3: the hardest day of his life.

841
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 2: And this is a damn close second.

842
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 3: Oh, I know, And he's great and he's bing and

843
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 3: like he has like he has like the.

844
00:39:56,680 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 2: He has like the like the dad tea you know,

845
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,359
Speaker 2: I'm talking about, like the one in the world. Yeah,

846
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 2: there's like a depth to their voice.

847
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,879
Speaker 3: Yea, Like they don't know how to cry and they're

848
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 3: not gonna let the tears overwhelm them, so they're holding

849
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 3: it in. But yet they're so emotional. He's he's so

850
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 3: frustrated with what's happening. So obviously I think we can

851
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 3: point to this season becomes very real for multiple people,

852
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 3: including our Golden Bachelor, and I think we see that

853
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,880
Speaker 3: the tears that Gary is showing will not be stopped

854
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 3: throughout the entirety of the season. I think every breakup

855
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 3: is going to be hard for him in a different way.

856
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 3: And I think He's going to have to end relationships

857
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,760
Speaker 3: that he's probably feeling something for because he hasn't felt

858
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,399
Speaker 3: a relationship in a long time. Even though I do

859
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 3: think something unique to this season will be Gary knows

860
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 3: what it feels like to have true love and so

861
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 3: that's what he's kind of looking for again. Not the

862
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:59,799
Speaker 3: same kind of love, something something different, something new, But

863
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:00,880
Speaker 3: he's looking for love again.

864
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:03,440
Speaker 4: Do you think his wife is in heaven laughing?

865
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 2: I don't know.

866
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 3: I mean, I would imagine if the daughter signed our

867
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 3: our Bachelor, is it harder signed the Golden Bachelor up?

868
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 2: They knew that, you.

869
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 3: Know, his wife want and their mother would want him

870
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 3: to do this. Yeah, Like I think I think if

871
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 3: the daughter's saying, Dad, we really want you to do this,

872
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 3: they knew it would have been a wish of his

873
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 3: late wife and as a result, Yeah, I bet she's like,

874
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 3: this is ridiculous, This is wild, And I'm so excited

875
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 3: to celebrate with him as he goes on the rest

876
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 3: of his life with somebody you know, knew. But my

877
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 3: memory's still there, and I think there's so much more

878
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 3: to break down when it comes to this show. There's

879
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 3: so much more to talk about. Can we talk about

880
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 3: how weird of an emotional switch it is to go

881
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 3: from this to Paradise.

882
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 4: Well, you almost kind of need it because you go

883
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 4: from this heavy emotional show to just foolery.

884
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just felt like almost dirty. I don't know,

885
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 3: like it just felt was so weird to me. I'm

886
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 3: hoping that sucking toes. Yeah, sucking toes is like the

887
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 3: first scene, You're like, what is going on? Like, I

888
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 3: can't I can't do this mentally, I can't make this

889
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 3: these jumps. But I'm hoping both of these shows do

890
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 3: well enough where they have their own nights here next season,

891
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 3: because if we have to always do Golden Bachelor in Paradise,

892
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna be all twisted up inside.

893
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,480
Speaker 4: All Right, Well, every week we're gonna have a grandma

894
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 4: on the show, or I guess I don't know if

895
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 4: they're all gonna be grandma's, but they're all going to

896
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 4: be of the age range of these Golden Bachelor contestants.

897
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:45,439
Speaker 4: So our first Golden Guests will be joining us after

898
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 4: the break to give her opinion on the night.

899
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,760
Speaker 3: So every week here on the Almost fame Is Podcast,

900
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 3: We're going to start something new, something exciting, something to

901
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 3: even continue pushing this Golden Bachelor forward with almost Fames

902
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 3: podcast because we just love it so much. We're going

903
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 3: to bring on somebody that is in the age range

904
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 3: of the contestants on the show.

905
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:20,800
Speaker 2: On the Golden Bachelor.

906
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,839
Speaker 3: We're gonna get their thoughts each week on what they saw,

907
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,960
Speaker 3: what they expected. Was it shocking, were there You know

908
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 3: what I'm interested in, Ashley, is was there anything that

909
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,320
Speaker 3: stood out to them because of like sayings and phrases

910
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:35,920
Speaker 3: that maybe they haven't heard in a while because they

911
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 3: don't we don't like say them in our common language today.

912
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 3: Maybe they've gone away, but you know on the show,

913
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 3: they're like, no, I remember when people used to say that.

914
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:47,280
Speaker 3: This week, we have a very special guest, Sherry Sugarman,

915
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 3: the aunt of Amy Sugarman, who.

916
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 2: Produces this podcast. Cherry, Welcome to the show.

917
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 7: Thank you so.

918
00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:57,880
Speaker 4: Sherry.

919
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,320
Speaker 6: What's your initial take on The Golden Bachelor.

920
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 2: I like it.

921
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 7: I like it. I think there is a need to

922
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 7: show people that are a little more mature and have

923
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:14,360
Speaker 7: experienced life, and I think this is a very nice

924
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 7: new approach. I've watched a bachelor and bachelorette from time

925
00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:23,040
Speaker 7: to time and I'm wondering, you know, what the demographics are.

926
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 7: I'm hoping that you're going to get a very good response.

927
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 7: Have you have you heard anything about the viewers.

928
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,359
Speaker 3: The ratings aren't all yet. We're kind of hoping they

929
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 3: would be. They're not all yet, they should be soon.

930
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 7: I think there's a need for people my age to

931
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,239
Speaker 7: be able to love, to be able to find love again.

932
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 7: We all want to find love, and if we don't

933
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,200
Speaker 7: already have it, we're certainly looking for it.

934
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,759
Speaker 4: Well, you have been married to your high school sweetheart

935
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,719
Speaker 4: for quite some time and you're close to eighty Would

936
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,920
Speaker 4: you ever think of yourself as being a participant on

937
00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 4: the show? If you guys, if you were not Belle married?

938
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 7: Would I ever think of myself as being on the show? Is?

939
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 1: What?

940
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,880
Speaker 4: Yeah? What kind of personality do you think it takes.

941
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 7: I think it takes an outgoing personality, that is for certain.

942
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,480
Speaker 7: I think it's a difficult thing to expose yourself to

943
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 7: the public. You have to be pretty confident, and you

944
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 7: have to want it very badly.

945
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 3: Now, Sherry, you know, I have a few things I'm

946
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:26,759
Speaker 3: very interested in when I talk to you. This is

947
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 3: the first episode of The Golden Bachelor.

948
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,399
Speaker 2: You are a first guest to break this.

949
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 7: Down my goodness.

950
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 3: Okay, the criticism and there is very little okay of

951
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 3: this show so far, and I think as weeks go on,

952
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 3: they'll probably be even less because people will get to

953
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,319
Speaker 3: know the stories of each participant. Right, There's been a

954
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:49,319
Speaker 3: lot of life lived, a lot of stories of ups

955
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 3: and downs. But the criticism so far is that people

956
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 3: maybe don't feel like this is a fair representation of

957
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 3: people in their sixties and seventies because a compliment to

958
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 3: all the contestants and the Golden Bachelor, they're all extremely

959
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 3: good looking, Like everybody is beautiful, and he's very handsome.

960
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 3: Do you if when you hear that these are people

961
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 3: in your age range, what's your response?

962
00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 7: I think they're inspirational. I mean I, as a viewer,

963
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 7: would much rather see people who are physically fit and

964
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:32,440
Speaker 7: who are attractive to represent seniors. I mean, obviously some

965
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,840
Speaker 7: people are ill and you know, have lots of problems

966
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:38,840
Speaker 7: and could not be on the show. But for the

967
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 7: most part, I enjoy seeing these women. Well, I have

968
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 7: enjoyed seeing these women. We've only had one episode so far.

969
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, and it kind of feels like, uh, you

970
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 3: know sixty today is not old. Seventy is not old, right,

971
00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 3: like eighty is not old Like the people I live

972
00:46:56,200 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 3: in Colorado, eighty might be old. Ben Oh, I don't think.

973
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:03,359
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I don't think you can say

974
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 2: that approaching. Yeah, I don't think you can say that.

975
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 3: And I live in Colorado, right I live on a

976
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,800
Speaker 3: street that they're eighty five year old's biking road biking

977
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 3: up and down this mountain that I live on every

978
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 3: day every day.

979
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:16,919
Speaker 2: I know four of them.

980
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 3: They get out and they ride twenty five miles and

981
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 3: they're booking it right now.

982
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:23,479
Speaker 2: Yes, eighty five.

983
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:25,560
Speaker 3: It means you're in, you know, the second definitely the

984
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:27,760
Speaker 3: second half of your life. You're in the final chapters

985
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:29,880
Speaker 3: of your life. Is the quote on this show said,

986
00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:33,400
Speaker 3: you know, we're excited for another ten years of love.

987
00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:35,880
Speaker 3: If somebody said that, that's great, it's a great perspective.

988
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 3: But I think what it's showing is as you get older,

989
00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 3: it doesn't mean that you just got to sit in

990
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 3: a nursing home in a chair all day, like you

991
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 3: can still get out there and have fun.

992
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 7: Correct.

993
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 4: So who stood out to you last night? Who do

994
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 4: you like? For Gary Well?

995
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:56,880
Speaker 7: It's interesting. I did like his choice for the first

996
00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:01,239
Speaker 7: impression rows. It seems like usually the past people who

997
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 7: were picked end up not being the ones at the end.

998
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,719
Speaker 7: But I like her. I think she's really genuine. I

999
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,880
Speaker 7: think she's fun, she's attractive. I think she has she

1000
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 7: I can check all the boxes as far as you know.

1001
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 7: My my impression of her and was I think he

1002
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 7: likes I think he likes brunets with long hair.

1003
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:24,239
Speaker 4: That's the thing he does too. I was noticing that

1004
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:24,759
Speaker 4: as well.

1005
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 7: Many women that I was very impressed with and some

1006
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 7: not so much.

1007
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, who was not so much for you?

1008
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 7: Well, I don't got to get in trouble, but I

1009
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 7: know that this.

1010
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,399
Speaker 6: Is okay, nobody, You're not going to get in trouble.

1011
00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:42,759
Speaker 7: Okay. Well, very pretty, pretty woman, very intelligent woman, the

1012
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:46,440
Speaker 7: chicken lady. I think she just kind of wore me out.

1013
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,000
Speaker 7: And I have a feeling they're probably, you know the

1014
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:51,240
Speaker 7: woman that i'm that I'm.

1015
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 4: Talking to one that lived on the hen farm April April. Yeah,

1016
00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:57,240
Speaker 4: well April is a handful. We can tell the April

1017
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:57,800
Speaker 4: is a handful.

1018
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,799
Speaker 7: Yeah, she's a handful. She's definitely antle. She would be

1019
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:05,000
Speaker 7: very high maintenance for this lovely Jerry. I mean, I

1020
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 7: think I think she would. I think she would, but

1021
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 7: she's amusing and I like that aspect of the show

1022
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 7: because I think we always you always need to keep

1023
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:17,239
Speaker 7: somebody that keeps you laughing. And it's and is yeah,

1024
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 7: and it's it's worth watching.

1025
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,279
Speaker 4: So did you find it to be more emotional than

1026
00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:23,480
Speaker 4: the main show?

1027
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,680
Speaker 7: Not not yet, but you know, we've only had had

1028
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 7: one one showing of it, so you have to give

1029
00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 7: me a little more time to evaluate that.

1030
00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:38,239
Speaker 6: Okay, he's emotional. He was emotional, Yeah, and package was just.

1031
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 7: Like, can I get that? I get that? And I

1032
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 7: think he's I think men who have lost their spouses,

1033
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:48,839
Speaker 7: who have come from good marriages want that again. So

1034
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 7: I think he's very genuine. I think he really is

1035
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:53,840
Speaker 7: looking for someone to marry.

1036
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 4: Do you have any predictions for what's to come this season?

1037
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:02,720
Speaker 4: Because we saw quite the te It's multiple people are saying,

1038
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:06,840
Speaker 4: I love you now. Great. This this show was shot

1039
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:09,759
Speaker 4: very quickly. I don't even know if it took six

1040
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:12,760
Speaker 4: weeks to shoot the entire show. So these feelings are developing, really,

1041
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:15,640
Speaker 4: these feelings are developing quickly as well.

1042
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 7: Well as seniors we don't have a lot of time,

1043
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 7: so better to shoot it. I show in the middle

1044
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 7: of it.

1045
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:27,400
Speaker 4: So how do you feel like Gary is going to

1046
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:29,280
Speaker 4: like handle all this emotional pressure.

1047
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 7: I think it could be a little difficult for him.

1048
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 7: I think it could be a little bit. So I

1049
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:38,359
Speaker 7: think he comes over as a very nice man, so

1050
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:41,319
Speaker 7: we certainly don't want him to get hurt, and he

1051
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:44,080
Speaker 7: doesn't want to hurt any any other women either. I

1052
00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:47,040
Speaker 7: think that's going to be a really an issue for him,

1053
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 7: because just saying goodbye to the few that he said

1054
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,080
Speaker 7: goodbye to last night was very emotional.

1055
00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 4: For him, so sweet to see him cry when the

1056
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:56,040
Speaker 4: lady was relieving.

1057
00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 6: He was so nice.

1058
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 4: I've never seen a bachelor cry at the first rest ceremony.

1059
00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:04,520
Speaker 7: Men should not be afraid to cry, no.

1060
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:09,160
Speaker 3: Feeling the There was a comment last night at sherry

1061
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:13,719
Speaker 3: Uh one of the ladies I think I think it

1062
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 3: was seven years, said she hadn't kissed a guy in

1063
00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 3: seven years when she kissed Gary, and.

1064
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 2: That made me.

1065
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:22,160
Speaker 4: She said several years.

1066
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 2: Several or seven, I don't know what it was.

1067
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 4: I think it could have been more than seven.

1068
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:29,560
Speaker 2: However it was, it was a long time.

1069
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:31,279
Speaker 7: Was that Teresa is that.

1070
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:34,439
Speaker 2: I think it was, yeah, and.

1071
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:38,279
Speaker 3: That maybe for all those years she did right, It was.

1072
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 3: It was very it was very nice to watch.

1073
00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:44,800
Speaker 7: Very aggressive, very forward.

1074
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:47,319
Speaker 3: That was my question to you, Okay, So that when

1075
00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:51,840
Speaker 3: she said that, Jessica and I both got watery eyed

1076
00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:53,879
Speaker 3: because we're just like, you know, this is a very

1077
00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,520
Speaker 3: special thing for these these women and for Gary, right.

1078
00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 3: I mean, they maybe have been a little lonely, maybe

1079
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,719
Speaker 3: they haven't had in a while, and then they get

1080
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 3: asked to be on this show and they get to

1081
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 3: dress up. Like, think about the excitement as you're dressing

1082
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:08,640
Speaker 3: up and you're putting your makeup on and you're going

1083
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,000
Speaker 3: on a date for maybe the first time in seven

1084
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:15,080
Speaker 3: or several years, whatever it was. I would love to

1085
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:17,719
Speaker 3: hear what you think of that. You know, with your friendships,

1086
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 3: obviously you're still happily married, but with the people that

1087
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 3: you know that maybe are not any longer due to

1088
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 3: a loss of a loved one or a separation, Like,

1089
00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:29,279
Speaker 3: what's your perspective at your age for people who have,

1090
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 3: you know, not been dating for a while.

1091
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 7: I think it's difficult, and I think for her this

1092
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:40,920
Speaker 7: was this is an amazing opportunity and I just My

1093
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:42,759
Speaker 7: impression though, was that I thought she was just a

1094
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:45,759
Speaker 7: little too forward. Maybe I'm kind of old school, but

1095
00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 7: I thought she should have taken it just a little slower.

1096
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:53,240
Speaker 7: She's charming, and I certainly would love her to be happy.

1097
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 7: You know, she's a very likable person.

1098
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:57,880
Speaker 4: She's getting tips from the main show and all the

1099
00:52:57,880 --> 00:52:58,319
Speaker 4: young uns.

1100
00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 7: Oh, the young people. He probably probably yes, yes. And

1101
00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:05,840
Speaker 7: of course, man like Jerry, I mean, you know, they

1102
00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:08,759
Speaker 7: they don't want to be rejected. So when they meet

1103
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,719
Speaker 7: somebody like Teresa who's somewhat forward, I think it makes

1104
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 7: him feel wonderful that, you know, he's so he's so admired,

1105
00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,279
Speaker 7: and she would like to be with him for so much,

1106
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,320
Speaker 7: you know, so much. But it was only it's only

1107
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:25,040
Speaker 7: the first time they met, So I'm saying, wait a minute,

1108
00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,840
Speaker 7: let's just go a little slower. That would just be

1109
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:28,480
Speaker 7: my opinion.

1110
00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:33,279
Speaker 3: I do think that's an interesting dynamic because obviously, you know,

1111
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 3: if you're in your thirties, you know, it's not uncommon.

1112
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:38,680
Speaker 3: I think the question that I used to get asked

1113
00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:41,759
Speaker 3: when I was dating was would you kiss on a

1114
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,440
Speaker 3: You know, like two girls would ask each other like,

1115
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,719
Speaker 3: would you kiss somebody in their first date, right, especially

1116
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 3: growing up in the church, that was a very common

1117
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:50,879
Speaker 3: question of would you kiss somebody in your first date?

1118
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,439
Speaker 3: And they'd all chatter about it, and the guys would

1119
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 3: talk about it too, right, So it wasn't uncommon to kiss.

1120
00:53:58,920 --> 00:53:59,520
Speaker 2: On a first date.

1121
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,280
Speaker 3: As I think about, you know, my even my parents' generation,

1122
00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:09,440
Speaker 3: which is, you know, in their sixties and mid sixties, now, like,

1123
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:11,200
Speaker 3: I think it would have been uncommon for them. I

1124
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:13,200
Speaker 3: think that would have been something that have been frowned upon.

1125
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:14,799
Speaker 3: I think it would have very I think have been

1126
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 3: very taboo to even bring up, even if people are

1127
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:19,919
Speaker 3: doing it. I don't think it was a question even

1128
00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 3: offered to be asked. And so it's interesting to think, yes,

1129
00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 3: now we've watched a few people kiss, you know, on

1130
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,759
Speaker 3: the first night, and that has to be a really

1131
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:32,239
Speaker 3: big deal to them.

1132
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:33,600
Speaker 7: Well that was quite a kiss.

1133
00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:35,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they're making out.

1134
00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:39,240
Speaker 7: A little check on the she who was the woman

1135
00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 7: who was who came, who was on roller skates, who

1136
00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 7: presented herself in the beginning on roller skates. I know

1137
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,640
Speaker 7: that there's the aerobics teacher who is an ice skater,

1138
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:53,840
Speaker 7: roller skater or whatever, but she was the one that

1139
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,000
Speaker 7: came in the Walker, Is that correct?

1140
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 5: Uh?

1141
00:54:56,560 --> 00:54:58,359
Speaker 3: The one in the Walker I think ended up being

1142
00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:00,080
Speaker 3: the one that said she dated Prince.

1143
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:03,239
Speaker 4: Yes, because that was That's what she's gonna be known

1144
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 4: for to me, is the woman who dated Prince and

1145
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:06,799
Speaker 4: he wrote a song about her?

1146
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:09,359
Speaker 7: Okay? And was she Leslie or am I getting this missed?

1147
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:10,000
Speaker 4: She's Leslie?

1148
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, got it. But then that was a woman that

1149
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:15,399
Speaker 7: came in on roller skates, not Leslie, and I can't

1150
00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:18,280
Speaker 7: who she was. I thought that was really cool.

1151
00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, but remember I don't know her name.

1152
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 7: I can't place it.

1153
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:24,520
Speaker 2: You know, the speaking of what you're just saying. Though.

1154
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:27,560
Speaker 3: The interesting thing share to me is as we watch

1155
00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 3: this season go by, and as I said, I get

1156
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:31,440
Speaker 3: to watch eighty five year olds up and down my

1157
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:35,240
Speaker 3: road all day long. Biking was like they're mountain climbing,

1158
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,600
Speaker 3: Like they're they're going down mountains on this show. That

1159
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:43,080
Speaker 3: was shown in the previews, like they're not taking it

1160
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:47,200
Speaker 3: easy on anybody now. And I say that with maybe

1161
00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:50,160
Speaker 3: the meanest thing they'll do to anybody all season.

1162
00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 2: I think it was inappropriate.

1163
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,480
Speaker 3: Jessica and I thought talked about a thousand different ways

1164
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:58,280
Speaker 3: they could have done this better they made these poor

1165
00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:05,279
Speaker 3: people stay yeah, through the night into the morning. I

1166
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:06,839
Speaker 3: don't do that at all.

1167
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:10,320
Speaker 4: It was the first time the host has ever said

1168
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:13,240
Speaker 4: it's the last rose this morning.

1169
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:16,279
Speaker 3: I think there was an emphasis on, like, yeah, we

1170
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:17,440
Speaker 3: just made these people stay.

1171
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:18,280
Speaker 6: Up all night this evening.

1172
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,920
Speaker 4: It was never it's never been brighter in there. It

1173
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:22,320
Speaker 4: was like, really weird.

1174
00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:25,359
Speaker 7: That's something that we were not privileged to see.

1175
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:27,800
Speaker 6: So, yeah, you were, no, you saw it. It was

1176
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:29,560
Speaker 6: light in that room. And he said this.

1177
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:30,759
Speaker 7: Morning late in that room.

1178
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:33,439
Speaker 6: Oh, it was light, the morning.

1179
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 2: Light through the windows.

1180
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:36,600
Speaker 3: I guess you would have to have been in that

1181
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:39,840
Speaker 3: room before, because you know, to look through the windows.

1182
00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:40,840
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1183
00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:43,760
Speaker 2: So when was the last time you stayed up all night, Sherry?

1184
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:47,200
Speaker 7: Oh my gosh, I guess a few New Year's Eves ago.

1185
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,200
Speaker 7: Not on a regular basis. I'm an early riser. I'm

1186
00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 7: a golfer, so I get up at the crack of

1187
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:55,600
Speaker 7: dawn and then you know, about ten o'clock I've done.

1188
00:56:56,160 --> 00:57:01,480
Speaker 7: But I'm a I'm a morning day person. But I

1189
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,759
Speaker 7: have a lot of friends who stay up till two,

1190
00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,359
Speaker 7: three o'clock in the morning, but then I don't call

1191
00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:09,640
Speaker 7: them until ten, ten or eleven in the morning. You know,

1192
00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:13,560
Speaker 7: they're they're they're late late risers and they stay up

1193
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,080
Speaker 7: at night. But it's not my style.

1194
00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:22,160
Speaker 3: The you put in more hours than I do, then

1195
00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:24,720
Speaker 3: I'm an I'm an early early, better early rise. I

1196
00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:26,760
Speaker 3: just think it was painful for it had to be

1197
00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 3: painful because I've been in that experience as the bachelor

1198
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 3: and known what it feels like to be so tired,

1199
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:36,080
Speaker 3: and then to know that, yes, these people are you know,

1200
00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:38,880
Speaker 3: when I was the Bachelors in my mid twenties, and

1201
00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 3: so to know fifty years later they were putting in

1202
00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 3: the same type of hours that's not fun.

1203
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:46,760
Speaker 2: In fact, Jimmy car'ar them.

1204
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:48,200
Speaker 7: I admired them.

1205
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I admired at twenty four.

1206
00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:54,040
Speaker 7: But when I think you chose well, I mean I

1207
00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 7: think the the the program, you know, whoever books all

1208
00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,640
Speaker 7: the people, I mean, they picked well well so far.

1209
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:04,280
Speaker 7: Now I think it's going to turn into somewhat of

1210
00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:06,680
Speaker 7: a train wreck, because it always does. I'm just kind

1211
00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 7: of waiting for that to happen, and I guess that's

1212
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:12,439
Speaker 7: what makes people view the program a little bit more.

1213
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,600
Speaker 7: I like it when people are funny but not you know,

1214
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:16,760
Speaker 7: crazy crazy.

1215
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:19,640
Speaker 4: I'm honestly looking forward to more sappy stories.

1216
00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:25,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I will definitely continue to watch it.

1217
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 7: It held my.

1218
00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:31,880
Speaker 5: Interest more than The Bachelor and Bachelorette lately, but then

1219
00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 5: you know, it's it's more age appropriate for me, it's

1220
00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 5: more realistic for me to see this.

1221
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:39,720
Speaker 7: Well, I can identify with that.

1222
00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:42,640
Speaker 3: My final our final thought with you, Sherry is a

1223
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:43,520
Speaker 3: question I have.

1224
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:45,960
Speaker 2: Obviously.

1225
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,080
Speaker 3: Again we'll mention that you've been happily married for how

1226
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:48,880
Speaker 3: many years?

1227
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,160
Speaker 7: And I'm really going to give away my age. I

1228
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:56,600
Speaker 7: am going to be married in June sixty years.

1229
00:58:56,920 --> 00:58:57,760
Speaker 2: That's amazing.

1230
00:58:58,280 --> 00:58:59,280
Speaker 6: That's amazing.

1231
00:58:59,560 --> 00:58:59,840
Speaker 2: Something.

1232
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:02,600
Speaker 7: So I married my high school sweetheart and I married

1233
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:05,640
Speaker 7: him when I was very very young. And he is

1234
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:08,160
Speaker 7: the twin brother of Amy's father.

1235
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:10,680
Speaker 2: Okay, well, very cool.

1236
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:11,040
Speaker 1: You know.

1237
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:16,400
Speaker 3: Again, the final thought here is watching last night, there's

1238
00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:18,720
Speaker 3: always I mean, for Ashley and myself, one of our

1239
00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:22,440
Speaker 3: favorite parts about talking about the Bachelor franchise is, Yes,

1240
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:26,240
Speaker 3: the drama and the funny things are great and they're entertaining,

1241
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:30,200
Speaker 3: but there's moments I think it will happen more during

1242
00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:32,880
Speaker 3: the Golden Bachelor than it does during the other shows

1243
00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 3: where the show really kind of like makes an impact

1244
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:38,400
Speaker 3: with reality. All of a sudden, you feel like you

1245
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:42,400
Speaker 3: know you're watching something that will affect this person after

1246
00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:45,840
Speaker 3: the show is done. And I think that brings That's

1247
00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:48,280
Speaker 3: that's a really good part of reality television. You feel

1248
00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:51,800
Speaker 3: like you can relate or you feel like the people

1249
00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:55,320
Speaker 3: on your television are feeling something that you know is

1250
00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 3: going to impact them. And last night watching our Golden

1251
00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:03,360
Speaker 3: Bachelor and Jessica and I talking about this Forever, Jessica

1252
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:06,160
Speaker 3: cry through the whole show. She just just gets emost.

1253
01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:09,880
Speaker 3: She's just an emotional person. But you know, he he

1254
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:13,480
Speaker 3: was married for forty three years to his sweetheart. She

1255
01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:17,880
Speaker 3: sadly passes away. That's it's been a few years since

1256
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 3: she has passed away. And last night was probably the

1257
01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:23,680
Speaker 3: first time he has had to break up with somebody

1258
01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:29,560
Speaker 3: in fifty years. Right for me again to relate it

1259
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:33,240
Speaker 3: back to the other show, it wasn't an unfamiliar feeling

1260
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:34,840
Speaker 3: for me. You know, I didn't go out there breaking

1261
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 3: up with everybody, but.

1262
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:37,840
Speaker 2: I I knew it.

1263
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 3: Was something that could be expected, and I had some training,

1264
01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:44,280
Speaker 3: I guess during that time and doing it, even if

1265
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:49,000
Speaker 3: it was still as hard fifty years of not hurting

1266
01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 3: somebody else's feelings rel you know, romantically, Sherry, what would

1267
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:53,760
Speaker 3: you say to that?

1268
01:00:55,640 --> 01:01:01,439
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's it's you've had no practice. It's

1269
01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:04,840
Speaker 7: a hard thing and as I said, he appears to

1270
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:07,880
Speaker 7: be very genuine, so he doesn't want to hurt anybody.

1271
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:11,200
Speaker 7: This is going to be the most difficult part for

1272
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:13,880
Speaker 7: him is when he has to say goodbye to these women.

1273
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:17,440
Speaker 4: Sarah, you married your high school sweetheart. Have you ever

1274
01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:18,160
Speaker 4: broken a heart?

1275
01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:21,560
Speaker 7: Have I ever broken a heart?

1276
01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:21,919
Speaker 4: No?

1277
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 7: I don't think I ever. Have I dated a little

1278
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:28,720
Speaker 7: bit in between, and so did my husband, but no, no,

1279
01:01:29,520 --> 01:01:33,720
Speaker 7: I haven't experienced that really, although have you my marriage?

1280
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 7: I think I've sometimes broken my husband's heart and he's

1281
01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:40,080
Speaker 7: broken mine at times and we've been able to get

1282
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:45,480
Speaker 7: past it. I mean I have felt that emotion from

1283
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:46,200
Speaker 7: time to time.

1284
01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:50,600
Speaker 4: My mom and dad they've been married for over forty

1285
01:01:50,680 --> 01:01:53,640
Speaker 4: years now, but they got married when my mom was

1286
01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:56,120
Speaker 4: twenty two and met when my mom was twenty and

1287
01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:58,840
Speaker 4: my sister and I are sometimes busy at her, were like,

1288
01:01:59,120 --> 01:01:59,800
Speaker 4: you don't even know.

1289
01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:02,520
Speaker 6: What our break feels like. Like that's so crazy. You're

1290
01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:04,320
Speaker 6: just like going to go through life by marriage.

1291
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:07,680
Speaker 7: You can experience it with your spouse. I believe that

1292
01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:11,680
Speaker 7: might not be a breakup, but it's it can it

1293
01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 7: can be heartbreaking. Marriage is difficult, It really is difficult,

1294
01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:19,240
Speaker 7: you know, and you have to you can. It's easy

1295
01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:21,560
Speaker 7: to be lovers in the beginning, but you know, to

1296
01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:25,560
Speaker 7: remain friends, that's the challenge. That is the challenge.

1297
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:27,240
Speaker 2: I believe that coming.
