1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: This is the Benn and Ashley I Almost Famous podcast 2 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: with i R Radio. Oh my gosh, we don't even 3 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,799 Speaker 1: have an off week on this podcast. We go right 4 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,120 Speaker 1: from The Bachelorette into Bachelor in Paradise and it's where 5 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 1: my co host shines Paradise time. Oh my gosh, Ben, 6 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:23,960 Speaker 1: watching this had me feeling PTSD and I know that 7 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: we shouldn't use that out of like true contacts, but 8 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: like Wells used it though, So I mean I wasn't 9 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: pretty traumatized, to be honest, it's actually pretty close the 10 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: true definition. I was feeling Joe so much. And there's 11 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 1: just like this sense that I get every season that 12 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: comes around. It's just like I am so grateful that 13 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: I'm married. I married Jared and I don't have to 14 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: be their suffering. But okay, so this is how we're 15 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: gonna kick it off. And I think it's super interesting you. 16 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: I feel like you go back and forth on this 17 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: because I tell people in my time with him that 18 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: you really love Paradise, but yet there's moments where you're like, 19 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: I hated this experience. This felt like you just said suffering, 20 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: So what is it actually? Did you like it? Or 21 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 1: do you not no, no no, no, Ben, I did not 22 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: have a great and I didn't have a good time there. 23 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 1: Did I get a lot out of it? Yeah, I 24 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 1: like grew so much of the experience. I got so 25 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: much more mature um relationship experience just like communication. Like, 26 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: I got so much out of it, but very few 27 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: moments were enjoyable. But it's it's like this, um, it's 28 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: kind of like this Jonas s. Froller's quote that I 29 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: loved it throughout there all the time. Uh. The line 30 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: of the lyric of the song is the days that 31 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 1: seemed the worst, the days that were the worst seemed 32 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: to glow now. And it's kind of like that where 33 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: it's like, when I think back on it, I only 34 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: think I usually first think of the good moment and 35 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: like even the there's like there's like even a glow 36 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 1: to the suffering, right because everything turned out good? Yeah, 37 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: I get that, But I enjoyed my bachelor experience so 38 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: much more like that was just pure fun. Okay, Okay, 39 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: so you enjoyed the Bachelor. The Bachelor experience was more 40 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 1: fun paradise. I wonder, Astley, if your situation is a 41 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: tad unique, because it sure is well And I'll say 42 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 1: it why because your husband was on that beach with you, 43 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: which adds, like I would have to imagine it intensifies 44 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: the situation. You maybe didn't know it at the time, 45 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: you maybe thought, oh my gosh, like this guy, but 46 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: there was like a deep love and connection between the 47 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 1: two of you that was on the beach, which made 48 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: this so much more like heavy, Like it was so 49 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: really so real to you. Yeah, Like people say like, oh, 50 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: go and have fun, It's just like, no, no, no, 51 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: there's no fun about finding your person and it needing 52 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: to work out. You feel like that, You feel like 53 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: it needs to happen then or it's never gonna happen. 54 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: But then for us, I mean, it truly did not 55 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: have to happen then and it was supposed to go 56 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 1: st lower but definitely. But yeah, I think that from 57 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: like my fan viewers point of view, is probably one 58 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: of the reasons. Do you think the people today after 59 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: watching We're gonna get into a couple of things here 60 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: for all of you friends out there listening, We're gonna 61 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: announce a really exciting thing that we have going on, 62 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: um that will involve all of you, Like we need 63 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: all of you listening to to be involved in this 64 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: as well. The second piece of this is we're gonna 65 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: break down UM this week's episode of Paradise. But I 66 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: really kind of watched UM this week's episode and I 67 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: was like, I need to ask, actually some questions. Do 68 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: you think the people today go on the beach with 69 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: a similar mindset to which you and your friends at 70 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: the time we're going on that beach. You know? After 71 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: watching this episode, I kind of feel like, yes, I 72 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: feel like there was a lot of people that genuinely 73 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: we're looking for their part r and they know. I 74 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: think it's different because on The Bachelor, you're kind of like, oh, 75 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: the odds are really against me. I don't even know that. 76 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: You're like I'm just doing this for fun, like I'm 77 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: doing this for this reason or that reason. But then 78 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: when you've already gone through the process and you know 79 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 1: how real the feelings are that developed, I think you 80 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: go into Paradise with more of like an authentic heart. 81 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: That's so interesting because I think so many people, myself included, 82 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: I'm guilty of this. We watch Paradise and like, you know, 83 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: I I hear people all the time. Now ask me, 84 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 1: were you ever on that Paradise show? That shows so wild, 85 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: but I love it. I think people think that Paradise 86 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 1: is just this big party that is an excuse for 87 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: people to stay famous and get back into relevancy. But 88 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: I see it consistently. And I got to talk to 89 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: Wells about this in Memphis just a week and a 90 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: half ago, how intense these relationships become over time, and 91 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: so it is almost like, maybe is it. Do you 92 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: feel like it's the shock to the contestants system once 93 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: all of a sudden they get there and they go, 94 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, like this isn't just funny games anymore. Yeah, 95 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: because just the experience itself is such It's just so 96 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: different from being on the main show. Because on the 97 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: main show, you're like, oh, you know, I can show 98 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: up and like be prime me whenever the Bachelor or 99 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: the Bachelorettes around, and like, I'm off just goofing off 100 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: with my friends most of the time. Um. But then 101 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: in Paradise you realize like it just never ever stops, 102 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: and the contestants kind of let that on during this 103 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: episode where they're like, oh my gosh, Like socially, I 104 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: had to be on for so long and it felt 105 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 1: like if I wanted to just relax and like take 106 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: a breather from it, that I was going to fall behind. 107 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: So there is like more of a constant pressure to 108 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 1: be on and like fighting for what you want and 109 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: you're always scared that somebody's going to come in and 110 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: sneak the purse and that you want away. So I 111 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: just think it's a more pressure filled environment. And at 112 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: the same time, because it never stops, it means that 113 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: you also never stop having time with the person that 114 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: you like. So I think feelings in relationships developed so 115 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: much faster. But yeah, but that comes with so much 116 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: pressure because you're like, if I don't I'm not with 117 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 1: them for like five minutes. What it? What's going to happen? 118 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: And that's just scary. It's just like you're constantly scared. 119 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: It sounds actually, I you know, I've gotten to know 120 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: you well, and listeners have got to know you well. 121 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: I'm shocked you could do Paradise well. I don't know 122 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: if I could be kind of didn't I didn't do 123 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: it well? You got married? Okay, Hey, moving on here 124 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: a little bit um into really the final piece nugget 125 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 1: that I find interesting and I don't know if anybody 126 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: else will but that doesn't matter because I got the 127 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: mic Um. I was looking back last last night as 128 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: we're watching the episode, and I was looking at some 129 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: of the instagram in a following of some past Bachelor 130 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 1: in Paradise contestants. It is interesting to me how large 131 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: of a following these contestants gain from Paradise. Like most 132 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: of the women, especially from this experience the Paradise show, 133 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: have more followers than our last Bachelorette Katie Thurston. There 134 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: is a huge I wonder if the audience watches Paradise 135 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: and they feel like they can relate a little bit 136 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: more from it, and as a result, they become followers 137 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: of the people in the show. And am I crazy? 138 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: Is this interesting at all? Or is this just a 139 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: weird thought? I think you're probably looking at people who 140 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: have um ended up in relationships and engage and married 141 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: from the show and like possibly had kids in the show. 142 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: So like that makes sense because every time there's like 143 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: a big life landmark, you go up a bit. Um. 144 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: But I also was thinking while watching this episode, like, 145 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this show well, I mean my personal opinion, 146 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: it's just like I love this show so much more 147 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: than the main show. Because you get to see actual personality. 148 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: It's like a lot of the things that we see, 149 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: I feel like moments that we'd see in the blooper 150 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: part of the main show. It's just everybody just seems 151 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: like more of like a real person than like this 152 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: person than a person like reading from a script of 153 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: like what they should say when they're falling in love. Interesting. Uh, well, Ashley, 154 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: love your insight. We're going to continue to tap into 155 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: your insight as we move through the podcast. Let's take 156 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: a break here. When we come back, we're gonna start 157 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: breaking down this week's episode of Bachelor in Paradise.

I want to kind of 169 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: walk you through this because there's a few things that 170 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: we got wrote into us that people are interested in. 171 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: One of them is what was your overall honest feelings. 172 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: We know that, uh, you and I both uh cared 173 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 1: deeply for Chris Harrison. Obviously, we're moving into a season now, 174 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 1: we're we're no longer watching Chris on The Bachelor, Bachelor 175 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: and Bachelor in Paradise. We're getting used to it. We've 176 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: shared our opinions about how well we thought Caitlin and 177 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: Tatia did for the roles that they were given on 178 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: the Bachelortte. However, uh we we personally, I felt like 179 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: the show was missing Chris during the Bachelor or this 180 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: the familiarity of the show was no longer there and 181 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: it's changing and we're getting used to it now we 182 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: roll in the Paradise. So with that being considered, what 183 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: was your thoughts on David's Spade and Wells filling those shoes? 184 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: To be completely honest, I don't think David Spade added anything, 185 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: and I think it just should have been Wells. Interesting. 186 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: Why do you feel like the way um well Wells 187 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: did most of the actual hosting, he told the contestants 188 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: what was going to happen to them throughout the week, 189 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: and then even there was that moment where David was like, 190 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: I was gone last night, Wells, what happened? Catch me up? 191 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: And it's just like this is kind of ridiculous, Like 192 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: why didn't we just have Wells who fits so well 193 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: in the paradise role. It doesn't make any sense, Like 194 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: with Caitlin and Taitia, like we had two alarms. They 195 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: did what they did great with the main show, and 196 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: then we have Wells who just seems like a natural 197 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: fit who's already there as a sidekick normally, and if 198 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: he's going to deal with the rose ceremonies as well, 199 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: It's just like, I don't understand why we didn't just 200 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: have him do everything. He's obviously confidante for the contestants. 201 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: They feel very comfortable with him. And Sade was like, 202 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: you know, of course she was funny in parts, but 203 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: I didn't. I wasn't thinking previously that his apathetic type 204 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: of humor how it would be here, and it actually 205 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: just came across to me like he was sort of 206 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: disinterested in it. Yeah, okay, So I think if you 207 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: asked the producer on the show, they would say David 208 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: Spade was there for the comedic relief. He was maybe not. 209 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I think I don't think we need comedic 210 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: I don't think we need we need comedic relief on 211 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 1: this show. No, not on Paradise. There was already plenty. Yeah, 212 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: that's interesting. Well taj Juan took the comedic relief. She's 213 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: so outrageous, hilarious. Love her. Uh, she's just sweating bullets 214 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: on that scene, and I'm like that poor girl is 215 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: miserable and somehow she found herself back on this beach 216 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: and she is just so unhappy. I have a feeling 217 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: this Paradise season goes well for her. I don't know 218 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: if it does, but I hope it does. Anyways, So, uh, 219 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: you're in the camp of Hey Wells, Wells can do 220 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: this thing. Like we're watching Wells form into this host. 221 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: He's obviously a professional host by trade for years. I 222 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: wonder if in the future Wells will just carry this 223 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: Paradise show on his own. But for right now, we 224 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: do have guest host coming in and it is interesting 225 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 1: to watch Wells kind of come to age in a 226 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: in a sense in front of our eyes. And I 227 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: do think he carried the show well last night. I 228 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: think he needed a great job. Okay, but you'll be 229 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: honest too, do you really feel like David Spade was necessary? 230 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 1: I think it was necessary from an idea point before 231 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: the show started. I don't know, I'm not and I 232 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 1: don't know this. I don't know if anybody expected Wells 233 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: to be able to carry this show on his own. Uh. 234 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: And I think the guest host was almost like a 235 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: security blanket and and kind of like a risk eliminator 236 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: just in case Wells couldn't do it. But I think 237 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,199 Speaker 1: you and I both knew Wells could. I don't know 238 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: if the if others felt that way, But after watching 239 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: the first episode, I'm like, of course he can, Like 240 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: we don't need anybody else. And and I really think 241 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: for me, it hit me when Joe and Wells were 242 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: talking because I've been in a situation similar right on 243 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 1: on Winter Games and I had you there to kind 244 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: of like work with, and I was like, this is 245 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: all a reminder of something that went terribly wrong, and 246 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: I'm sad and I don't want to be here and 247 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: this is overwhelming and it's I and I feel like 248 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: I'm now kind of trapped. But yet it's also healthy 249 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: because I know this is like a step in the 250 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: right direction for me. I get that, like I can 251 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 1: relate with Joe in those moments, and I felt deeply 252 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 1: for him, and Chris filled that role for me during 253 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: that time where I got to sit with him and 254 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, man, we've we've got to be together outside 255 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 1: of this show, you know, like my heart, like I 256 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: just need you in this moment. You were the same 257 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: person for me. I saw it with Wells and Joe 258 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 1: and and I know for Joe that was a big 259 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: moment in his life, could really big moment for him 260 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: to take the next step forward. And Wells did it 261 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: great and he cared deeply. And I know he does 262 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: care deeply because I get to talk to him off, 263 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: you know, off the show. M hm. Yeah. So yeah, 264 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if we need them. Well, we'll see. 265 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: We'll continue to see how the other hosts go. And 266 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: I'm sure that David is probably there for two weeks. Yeah, 267 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: I don't think he's there long. And I mean he 268 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: was so funny at at the end so funny when 269 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: he talked about the crabs, because he's right, crabs are 270 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: really spiders with a good pr team, and um, we 271 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: talked about it every year. But just remind our listeners 272 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: before we jump in. Right up next is the Bachelor 273 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: Paradise breakdown. How bad are the crabs on the beach? 274 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: Are they really everywhere? No, they really are everywhere, And 275 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: you really can't open a door without like one there 276 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: and like afraid of killing one because they like love 277 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: hanging out in the cracks of the door. Um, they 278 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: are everywhere. And as long as you don't look at that, 279 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: like really think about how much they are spiderlike, it's okay. 280 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 1: But then like but when you do, you're like, oh 281 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: my god, these are just like spiders that crawl around 282 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,359 Speaker 1: all over the place, except for they have really funny expressions, 283 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: Like they truly look like you caught them in the 284 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 1: middle of committing a crime every time you look at them. Yeah, 285 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: they're they're not just spiders to me. I've been in 286 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: Paradise and I've gotten to do a few things down 287 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 1: there at different points. Like, those crabs are intense, they're bigger, 288 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: they have chompers. Uh, they're hard um, they look at you. 289 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: Spiders at least like half the time you don't see them, 290 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: and when you do, you're just so much bigger than them. 291 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: Crabs are a little bit more intimiding to me. I 292 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: don't know, really, yeah they are. Anyways, Uh, Ashley, here 293 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: we go. We're gonna break down this week's episode of 294 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: Bachelor in Paradise. I'm gonna let you take it away. 295 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: Let's start. Uh. I think at the entrances and all 296 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: of them are very similar. But I want to talk 297 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: to you because Jessica and I got to watch Bachelor 298 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: in Paradise with Kenny's entrance, obviously it's a huge deal. Yeah, 299 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: let's talk about the ones that really stood out. What 300 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: in the world did he He was not really new, 301 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: There's no way. Well I asked like we were watching 302 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: and we went backwards. I don't think he was, but 303 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: yet some of the guys said he was. Because nope, Like, 304 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: there was not one person there who acted like whoa 305 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: there is you know, there is a there is a 306 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 1: uh an antenna hanging out of you know, hanging off 307 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: of Kenny, and it's staring me in the face. Like 308 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: all of them were very way too comfortable for him 309 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: to be completely right or is that just paradise? Is 310 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: everybody cool with this? That was exactly what I was thinking. 311 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: And there's no way these girls are just going up 312 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: and giving him hugs. Yes, the hugs are from far away, 313 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: but like he definitely had one of those sock things on. 314 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: There's no way that Marie sat down with him on 315 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: a bed while his penis was just hanging out next 316 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: to her during the first conversation. Yeah, I mean, and 317 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: if so, I want to know, because they made it 318 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: seem like he was. They even had contest saying that 319 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 1: he was. Yet it was just nobody reacted in the 320 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: way I thought they would, like I even for me, right, 321 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: I I I've been in locker rooms. I see myself 322 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: every day. I think I would have been thrown off, 323 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: like just at least have a reaction of like whoa, 324 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 1: Like that's new, Like that's that's intense. We needed some 325 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: justin facial expressions for this. Oh, they definitely should have 326 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 1: montaged that in UM yeah, every So, I don't know 327 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 1: for sure. My vote is that it's not. We'll find out. 328 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: We'll let you know. UM other entrances that kind of 329 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: um surprised you Obviously, we have Victoria. Uh, we have 330 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: a Tammy entrance, um, where it's very comfortable with David's baby. 331 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 1: She doesn't even know who he is. Who else stood 332 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: out to you and their entrances? Um. I mean Abigail 333 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: is cute and flustered. UM. I think Joe is so 334 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: authentic to himself. I like the way he was wearing 335 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,120 Speaker 1: just a regular T shirt. Um, we'll talk about Let's 336 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: talk about Victoria for a second. Um, the goddess thing. 337 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: She's definitely less extra than she was last time, but 338 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: I think she's gonna have a hard time getting somebody 339 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: to give her a rose. And she hasn't been getting 340 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 1: as much screen time as we would expect, so I 341 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 1: don't know if she's gonna be sticking around next week. Um. 342 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 1: And then I think Tashwan was just hilarious. She like, legit, 343 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 1: did she leave on her own last last season because 344 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: she couldn't do with she did. I'm just going to 345 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: pretend like that's what happened. And now she's back and 346 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: she's just hilarious. UM. I get it. I the way 347 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,439 Speaker 1: that I'm feeling now, like if I was pregnant down there, well, 348 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: I already I told him I could not go because 349 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: I would die, Like I would die. But normally I'm 350 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: okay with the heat. But if you're somebody who can't 351 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 1: deal with the heat and you're down there, it's basically 352 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: like you're not functional. There's no escape. Yeah, there's no 353 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 1: air conditioning, right other than the boom Boom Room. You know, 354 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: the boom Boom room does not have air conditioning. The 355 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: interview rooms have air conditioning. Oh wow, So like the 356 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: boom Boom Room with like a real legit bed, you're 357 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: sleeping with another human and like you're just sweaty. I 358 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: thought the reason that um Jade and Tanner chose the 359 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: Boom Boom Room to move into is because it was 360 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 1: air conditioned. No, it's there's a boom Boom room. And 361 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 1: then there's where j and Danner were they used to 362 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: sleep at the top of the quote treehouse and that's 363 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: like a really private area with like a king bed 364 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: um and there's like a couple of big fans on it. 365 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, that makes sense. Okay. So another couple that 366 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 1: stood out to me just with excitement that we haven't 367 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: mentioned is Brendan makes a huge appearance and uh he's 368 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: good looking as ever, Uh, he did not get the like, 369 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a guy there yet that 370 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: stood out to me where it's like, oh, this is 371 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 1: the guy that everybody's gonna go after. He was what 372 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: I thought would be him and Ivan, but neither of them. 373 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: I thought he and Joe. I thought all the girls 374 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 1: will be over Joe. You know, it's interesting. I wonder 375 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 1: I think they could have. But I think Joe's first 376 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: impression to them was like, hey, I'm not ready, which 377 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 1: you know these girls like, Okay, I'm gonna pull away. 378 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna focus on somebody else, like give him the 379 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: time and respect he deserves, and so we just didn't 380 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: see it. But the guys that are very open, I 381 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 1: thought Ivan and Brendan really bring in, like be the 382 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: ones that everybody is going after, and it's just not 383 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: that way yet. Usually you see kind of the hot commodities. Uh, 384 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 1: Sena p was obviously one of them, but with the 385 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 1: guys there, there isn't one yet necessarily. Yeah, I would 386 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: say you're probably right. I feel like Joe was the 387 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 1: main character of this entire episode, and I just like 388 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: people to like kind of put themselves in his shoes, 389 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: like I feel it in paradise exactly where he was. 390 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 1: But you can put yourself in like think of where 391 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: you met like a significant other and think about like 392 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: where you guys would go, the restaurants you would go, 393 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 1: like whether it was college and it's like the actual 394 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: campus or whatnot. And then like all of a sudden, 395 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 1: years later, after experiencing what you did with them, you 396 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: go into that same spot and you're expected to find 397 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: something with somebody else. It is it'll it'll whack you out, 398 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 1: you know, and you are only going to reminisce, and 399 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,479 Speaker 1: like you're feeling all this nostalgia. And I bet you 400 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: that Joe in that moment was just thinking like there 401 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: was there had to be a thought like maybe I 402 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: should be back with Kendall. I think, Yeah, the emotions 403 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: flooded in, and you know, Jessica and I are like this. 404 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: I've always been a believer that when you end a 405 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: relationship ship that was a good relationship, but it needed 406 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 1: to end for whatever reason, right, you weren't meant for 407 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: each other. Uh, it is important or it's it's healthy 408 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: to have a respect and admiration for that human still, 409 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: to care for them deeply, to know that you want 410 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 1: what's best for them, for them to fine love or 411 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: whatever it is they're out there pursuing like you don't. 412 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any health unless the relationship was 413 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 1: very unhealthy and disliking or hating or wishing anything ill 414 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: on that X And I think for Joe being getting 415 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: to be around Kindle and Joe, you know many times 416 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 1: through this podcast and through other events, they're both terrific 417 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 1: humans who cared deeply for each other, and I think 418 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: they still have a lot of respect for each other 419 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: even though the relationship needed to end, which probably makes 420 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: those emotions even harder because they're probably confusing because now 421 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: he's back in that environment feeling and remembering some of 422 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: the past, right, Yeah, And isn't it funny when you 423 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: have a breakup, you only remember the momentous moments, the 424 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 1: good and the bad. And so if that beach is 425 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: full of good, momentous moments for him and Kindle, those 426 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 1: are the things he's remembering. He's not remembering the disagreements 427 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: about where to live and the disagreements about what life 428 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: was gonna look like. He's only remembering the good, and 429 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 1: he's surrounded by all these people who are fresh to 430 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,719 Speaker 1: the environment and experiencing it for the first time, and 431 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: they just don't understand because he's who who is? There 432 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: were like two other alums from Paradise, so it was 433 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:37,880 Speaker 1: Tajwan and Demi and Demi Um and Joe. Yeah, you're right, 434 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: and we didn't get to see a lot of Demmi 435 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 1: this episode. I think we will as time continues. We 436 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: obviously got to really dive into Ta Juan and uh 437 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 1: and Joe. But okay, so we move out through the entrances. 438 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: Everybody's now there, they meet each other. David Spade and 439 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,479 Speaker 1: Wells stand in front of the group and say that 440 00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: the guys now have the roses for this week. How 441 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: how does that change the dynamic Ashley, especially week one 442 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: when everything's new and everything is exciting. Well, of course 443 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: that the guys are going to feel extreme relief, and 444 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: then the pressure is so on the girls to like 445 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: even create some sort of report with somebody that like, 446 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: even if it isn't long lasting, like is enough to 447 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: get you through the week. And I do think that 448 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: there's some truth to the matter where it's like, now 449 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 1: the guys can kind of lay back and see which 450 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: girls come up to them. There's definitely more of a 451 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: power struggle. Now. It's interesting because also the guy's mentality 452 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 1: of this week, they've got to come to me, They've 453 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: got to earn it. Is okay, right, I mean, it's 454 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: fine because they have the roses. However, as we've seen 455 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: in Paradise, that dynamic will quickly change next week and 456 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: so this like hey, let them come to me mentality 457 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: might not be beneficial, especially when the girls now would 458 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: we're going to have the roses, and maybe these guys 459 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: haven't put in the effort they needed to to make 460 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 1: these connections. Is that true? That is true, But at 461 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: least they have a whole other week to kind of 462 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: make up for it. But like I said, you know, 463 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 1: things do move fast, and you can see already the 464 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: coupling up, and that's gotta be stressful for people who 465 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,199 Speaker 1: aren't feeling it with anybody. Yeah, let's let's dive into that. 466 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 1: A couple of couples that really stood out to both 467 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 1: of us, uh know and Abigail. Obviously, Abigail gets the 468 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: first date card. She asked Noah to come along. I 469 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 1: you know, I didn't know how I felt honestly personally 470 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: about Noah from his time on The Bachelorette. Same same, 471 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 1: but this was incredible not I mean just watching him 472 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: and Abigail interact in his care for her as like 473 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: a human and just wanting to understand her and get 474 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: to know her, and his interest like just a really 475 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: beautiful couple so far that I'm I hope it goes well. 476 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: I'm into I know Noah is a totally different person, 477 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: Like I kind of like started fresh with him. I 478 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: was just like, Okay, maybe I didn't know this guy before. 479 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: I really liked his personality, his demeanor, and I feel 480 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: like I trust him with Abigail. And at the same time, 481 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: I feel like Abigail um dolls have a lot more 482 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: walls up than I would have thought, and she is 483 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,199 Speaker 1: going to get be slow for him to get to know, 484 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: but it'll be nice to see. I trust that he's 485 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: going to give her, like all the slowness that she 486 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 1: needs as long as she's not showing interest in somebody else. Yeah. 487 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,199 Speaker 1: I agree. You know, when I really started to like 488 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 1: Noah what so, it's obvious that he was into Abigail. 489 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: There was no like complacency with him. He was he 490 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: was into Abigail. This was something he was interested and 491 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: he and she asked him the question this. I was like, no, 492 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 1: I like you, um, and I don't know him as 493 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 1: a person at all. But she goes, are you surprised 494 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: that you're on the first day in Paradise. He goes, yes, 495 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 1: I am, because if not, I was going to sneak 496 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: away to bed. And I was like, no, you're my man, 497 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 1: because that's exactly That's exactly the mindset I would be having, 498 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: is I'll have fun all day into the moment my 499 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 1: wall hits, and once it hits, I'm sneaking away to bed. 500 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: Oh my god. I love the way that Brendan freaked 501 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: out when I was at tas. Watton was like, you, 502 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,159 Speaker 1: there's probably gonna be a date card that comes in tonight, 503 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: and You're like, the sun's already set. The sunlight doesn't 504 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,640 Speaker 1: sit there until nine. And You're like, wait a second. 505 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 1: You're telling me that I might have to be going 506 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: on a date tonight. That would stress me out so much. 507 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,159 Speaker 1: It's just different. Like Jessica and I now plan our 508 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: dates for dinner. I get on open table and I'm like, 509 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 1: is there a reservation between the six and six fifteen 510 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: time frame? Yeah, It's like is the latest. We ain't 511 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 1: going because Ted Lasso is on and we're going to 512 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: watch the show starting at nine. It's uh, it is, 513 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: it's funny. Uh. Kind of that mindset, but that was 514 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 1: like something that would make me very anxious and one 515 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: of the reasons why I think nowadays I just couldn't handle. Okay, 516 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,719 Speaker 1: so we like knowing Abigail, we're fans that also, I 517 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: just want to know, you know, Ashley nice opinion on 518 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 1: no was was just kind of up in the air 519 00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 1: based on his time of the Batchelor. Yeah, it wasn't 520 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: like I disliked him, but like he had like more 521 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: of an edge and I see he's like more of 522 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: an instigator. I felt like, well, so maybe the takeaway 523 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: from that is was he the problem or was Bennett 524 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: actually the problem? And we I mean we can kind 525 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 1: of point to that, right, Like we saw some things 526 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,400 Speaker 1: they were like this doesn't feel right. Uh, and so 527 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 1: maybe just maybe Noah No is the right there. I 528 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: don't know. One of the things that conclude one of 529 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 1: the things interesting to watch. Okay, So we see some kisses, 530 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: then we see the other coupling up outside of the date, Uh, 531 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: Connor Marissa kiss Trey and Tajwan kiss. Uh. That's an 532 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: interesting one obviously because the uncle narrative, which I hope 533 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 1: ends now because every time it said it makes me 534 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: feel just a little bit uncomfortable. Can we like please clarify, 535 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: like this has got to be one of those weird 536 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: situations where the uncle is super close in age too 537 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: like the other maybe not maybe not, I mean maybe not, 538 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: but like maybe within fifteen years, you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, 539 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: that makes sense, but that should end now, especially if 540 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna couple up, Like I don't need to. I 541 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: don't need to be playing that scenario in my head 542 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: too often. Uh. We then see Kenny uh and Maury kiss, 543 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: which is something uh that we probably I mean, at 544 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: least I foresaw coming from the start of the show, 545 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: like they were interested in each other, she was interested 546 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: in him, so like, not shocking, but a cool couple 547 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 1: to see couple up again. I don't know if Kenny's 548 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: naked the whole time during this. If so, Um, this 549 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: really intensifies that moment to a level that I don't 550 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: ever need to see. But something going on. And then 551 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 1: obviously we talked about Joe talking to Wells. Wells kind 552 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: of encouraging Joe to stay open and to put himself 553 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: out there. And we see Joe and Serena Pete, which 554 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: they're very cute together. I like that Joe is so awkward. 555 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 1: He's great, I know, but that's what's so real real. 556 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: I love it, but like it was a charming, endearing 557 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: awkward too, and it was almost like, oh, I've been there, 558 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 1: done that. I don't even care about being smooth anymore. 559 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: Every turn though, Joe is awkward, like and it's great 560 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: because like it's it's fantastic stick to watch because it 561 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: is relatable. But it's a cute couple. Uh. It's one 562 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: though that does give me anxiety actually as a season progresses, 563 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: because we obviously know Kindle shows up to the beach, 564 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: that's gonna be hard no matter what. I have so 565 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 1: many feelings, so many feelings about what's going to happen there, 566 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:28,479 Speaker 1: and I'm very nervous for them, and um, and I 567 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 1: guess that's all I have to say about that, but like, 568 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, it's gonna be hard. That was a 569 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: really real relationship that they put a lot of effort into. 570 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: It's gonna take them having some really healthy, um decisive 571 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: conversations that will be intriguing to watch from our perspective, 572 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't know, it's hard and uh. And 573 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: so that's the storyline to continue to watch through Paradise, 574 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: and hey, kudos to Paradise to get both Joe and 575 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: Kindle to show up. I mean that's a big deal, 576 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: I know. And then we see in the teaser that 577 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: Joe says, Serena, You're the second girl I've ever loved 578 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: in my life. I don't know how that feels. Yeah, Joe, 579 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: it could have been a Joe awkward moment where he's like, 580 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: I thought this is gonna be cute. Definitely backfired. Hopefully 581 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: Serena knows him well enough at that point to be like, alright, Joe, 582 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,959 Speaker 1: Well that didn't feel great. But see, I don't know, 583 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: I think that that's kind of cute because he because 584 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: she clearly already knows that there was the other girl, 585 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: that there was a Yeah she does, but that's an 586 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: age of difference. It is. It was well again, I 587 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: keep going back to us watching it, and Jessica was like, 588 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: that's twenty three is the age of her little brother, 589 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: who I think she still sees as her little brother, 590 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: which he is, but he's also a man now thirty 591 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: five dating a year old. If you know, it's not 592 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: as like different than being like twenty three and dating 593 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: eight you know, somebody that's in college like different. You know, 594 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: they're both in life and they're both at winning love, 595 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: and they're both excited about the possibility of it. It 596 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: could work, it has worked. You know. There's a lot 597 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: of age difference, but that is an age difference. Same 598 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: with Mary and Kenny. That's fifteen years. Yeah, yeah, that's interesting. Um, 599 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: we'll see if that becomes a storyline, like if age 600 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: does become a storyline. However, I'm I'm more in the 601 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 1: mindset now that as long as the two people are 602 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: both aligning on their interests in life, that that can 603 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: work well. But there's just a lot of life between 604 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: twenty three and thirty five. I'm a different That's what 605 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: it is. Yeah, there is. It's not so much that 606 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: it's a twelve year age difference. It's the age difference 607 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: that it is currently early twenties, mid thirties. Yeah, there's 608 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: just a lot of life to be lived and a 609 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: lot of lessons to be learned and a lot of 610 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,239 Speaker 1: things to develop over that time, So I don't know. 611 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 1: I sit in Josie and I honestly be a little 612 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: self conscious for Serena, And I don't know if it 613 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: matters very much, but if I was Joe, I know that. 614 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: You know, as you get older, you get a little 615 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: more self conscious about that you like how you know, 616 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: are you interested in somebody my age? Are you wanting 617 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: somebody that's like wanting to have dinner at six thirty 618 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: at night and being bed at nine thirty? Like? Is 619 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: that something interesting you? Are you still wanting to get 620 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 1: out there and explore at an energy level that I 621 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: just no longer am interested in. Um, so we'll watch 622 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: it was go okay. Final big moment, Dimmi walks down 623 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: uh the steps, says Hi to David. We see Demi 624 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: enter into paradise. Are you surprised that she's there? And 625 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 1: what do you expect at a Demi this time around? 626 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 1: I worry that Demi might be too cocky going into this. 627 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 1: I think she thinks she is like she is like 628 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: a senior here, right, so there is like a certain 629 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: seniority and she is a very well known member of bagelination. 630 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: I can understand it hitting your ego a little bit, 631 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 1: but she might be walking in a little bit too overconfident, um, 632 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: and I'm worried She's like not, it's she's not going 633 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: to make friends there. It's interesting and I could see 634 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: how even I would have that perspective after being there before, 635 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 1: feeling like I know, I understand it all, feeling kind 636 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: of almost immune to the emotions that people are experiencing, 637 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: like I've felt this before. I know it's the calm, 638 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,240 Speaker 1: I know it's gonna and and then all of a sudden, 639 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: the show finds a way to just totally rock your 640 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: world somehow. They will. They will. Yeah, being overly confident 641 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 1: walking down those steps or walking onto this show is 642 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:36,280 Speaker 1: one of the greatest ways to set yourself up for 643 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,799 Speaker 1: for some her or at least for an experience that will, 644 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 1: like you said earlier, mature you change you, uh and 645 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: hopefully every time enhance who you are as a human.

Like, I know there's 654 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: chemicals in there, and that is weird. It does not 655 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: feel okay.

Well. 681 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,879 Speaker 1: We thought that the Flex was so cool that we 682 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: decided to have the inventor of it, Lauren Shalty Wong, 683 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: onto the podcast, just to explain a little bit more 684 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 1: about a product, because I can understand how it's a 685 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: little mind boggling at first. You launched Flex in two 686 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 1: thousands sixteen with the hope and dream of transforming the 687 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: lives of people with periods. What was it that inspired 688 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 1: you to start Flex? I was getting East infections for 689 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: fifteen years and years and ten years of these infections. Yeah. Um, 690 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,240 Speaker 1: I'm originally from a small town in Georgia, and honestly, 691 00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: I never really thought that much about my period products. Um, 692 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: but I just spent years researching and trying different products 693 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: from all over the world and trying to find something 694 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: new and trying to find something different, and I couldn't 695 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: really find anything. Um So I decided to be the 696 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: first period care brand UM that would code design period 697 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 1: products with real stomers to solve their problems. So, then, 698 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 1: how did you come up with the flex the period cup? 699 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: Because I will be totally honest with you, Oh my gosh, 700 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: I can't believe I'm saying that on this podcast, But like, 701 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 1: I was horrified of sandpots until like my tool ENnies, 702 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 1: I was like that, they freaked me out. So, like 703 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: the period cup also seems a little intimidating. How do 704 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 1: we get over that thought? Yeah, so we have a 705 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: couple of different products. That first product was a disk, 706 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:33,759 Speaker 1: and I heard that people wanted more sustainable period products, 707 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: but they didn't like the idea UM of rinsing and 708 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: reusing something. So they wanted something more to SUSA animal 709 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 1: than a champ on our pad. But we weren't able 710 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 1: to fully commit to let's say, rinsing on a cup 711 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:50,919 Speaker 1: in a public space. Um So, our disks disks are 712 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: our first product and their designs so that you can 713 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 1: wear them for twelve hours, so the only disposable period 714 00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,800 Speaker 1: product that can be worn for twelve hours. They reduced 715 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,439 Speaker 1: cre MPs and sixty of our users you can wear 716 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,840 Speaker 1: them for mess free period sex, and those benefits for 717 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,840 Speaker 1: a lot of folks are enough to get over the hurdle. 718 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 1: But the thing that I love is you can use 719 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 1: the bathroom and empty it on the go like hands 720 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: free emptying, so you can free emptying hands free emptying, 721 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: so there's no rinsing and reusing, and once you're back 722 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 1: at home you can you can take it out and 723 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 1: and toss it, but you end up using six less 724 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: waste than um traditional period products. And the cup is 725 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 1: different because we're the only cup in the world that 726 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: has a patented poll tap that helps break the seal 727 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: um so it helps prevent it from getting stuck, which 728 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 1: is something that I think a lot of folks are 729 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: afraid of when using for a cup for the very 730 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: first time. Definitely, And what about the mess is there? 731 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: Is it any different than taking out a tampon? You 732 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 1: feel it is different than taking on a tampon, and 733 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: absolutely takes practice and there's a learning curve. So the 734 00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: question I always ask people if they're thinking about trying 735 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 1: a new period product, is is it worth testing something 736 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: out to see if all the other benefits outweigh, you know, 737 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 1: getting your hands a little messy while you're learning to 738 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: use something new for the very first time. Okay, that's understandable. 739 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,360 Speaker 1: And then, um, I hope it's not to t M 740 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:22,240 Speaker 1: I for this podcast. But how do you insert the disks? Yeah, 741 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: they're pretty straightforward. You pinch it in half and it 742 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:28,839 Speaker 1: actually gets about thinner than a tampon, and you push 743 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:30,880 Speaker 1: it all the way back and down and it pops 744 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: open into place. So if it's in properly, you shouldn't 745 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 1: feel it at all. And it's got um this nice 746 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: brim that molds the form of your body, so it's 747 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 1: ultra comfortable and pretty easy to remove. So you talked 748 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: about how you are getting used infections? Is tampon use 749 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: a common A common um a common thing to cause 750 00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:00,919 Speaker 1: us infections? Tampines can for some people disrupt the pH 751 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 1: of your of your vagina absorbs. You know, they just 752 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: absorb all of that um, healthy bio flora that your 753 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 1: body works so hard to produce every month to keep 754 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:14,719 Speaker 1: up immunity and help prevent infections, So not for not 755 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,240 Speaker 1: everyone has issues with tampons, and I'm not trashing campbons 756 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 1: by any strate of imagination, but for some people they 757 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 1: can throw off the pH of our vagina which can 758 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 1: lead to um use infections and bacterial vaginosis. So it 759 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: was really important to us that we used fully medical 760 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 1: grade materials that would not promote the growth of harmful bacteria. 761 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 1: And the discs are actually the only period product in 762 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 1: the world that haven't been linked to TSS. Amazing, Yeah, 763 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 1: because you said that you can keep it in for 764 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: twelve hours and it absorbs as much as three super 765 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,839 Speaker 1: tampons were, so that is pretty incredible that we don't 766 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 1: have to worry about toxic shock. Is there anything else 767 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: about your product that you want to talk about before 768 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 1: we let you go try and help from mos thy 769 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 1: period sex? I mean, I've never really had an issue 770 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 1: with period sex personally, UM, but you can have all 771 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 1: different types of sex. Doesn't have to be penetrated sex 772 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: to be able to enjoy the disk, and some people 773 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 1: find that to be very free. Well, thank you so 774 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: much for joining us, Lauren UM. It was very informative 775 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 1: and makes me a lot less intimidated by the new 776 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 1: inventions which are so popular. Our friend and colleague here 777 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,280 Speaker 1: at I Heeart, you know, Tanya Rad, she cannot stop 778 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,800 Speaker 1: talking about how much she loves the flex cups.

I'm really proud of our growth, 780 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: and I think it's just because customers, like I said, 781 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 1: are experiencing those real benefits. It can always be really 782 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: scary to try something new, but you know, if it's 783 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,360 Speaker 1: going to make our peers more comfortable and eliminate cramps 784 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 1: and give you more sexy time, it's worth a shot. 785 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:59,319 Speaker 1: How does it eliminate cramps? People? So it's not gonna 786 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 1: eliminate pre menstrual cramps, but a lot of folks get 787 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: more cramps and they're wearing a hard tampon inside of 788 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 1: their vagina because your body is essentially trying to contract 789 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: to relieve, believe all of the menzies.

So Victoria, I 826 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 1: asked her if she brought the crown with her to Paradise, 827 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: and she did bring up how goddess is what she's 828 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:21,239 Speaker 1: going to go by. But something that also stood out 829 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 1: to me was she said that this appearance on Bachelor 830 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,239 Speaker 1: in Paradise was going to be redemption for her from 831 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 1: Matt season, which I found was really interesting. I have 832 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 1: a goddess crown. You have a goddess crown. Okay, so 833 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,120 Speaker 1: that's what your look you're going for? I love it? 834 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:38,799 Speaker 1: And Connor, are you going to be dressing up as 835 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,839 Speaker 1: any other animal in Paradise. What a great question. I 836 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,279 Speaker 1: will say, I brought the cat suit to Paradise. I 837 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: didn't wear it the first day, but it may or 838 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 1: may not make it a pass. Oh my god, that 839 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 1: cat suit is way too hot for him to be 840 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 1: wearing in Paradise. He should be dressing up like something different, now, Kendall, 841 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 1: did you also get any insight into when Victoria says 842 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,279 Speaker 1: this is gonna be emption for her? What does she 843 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:03,800 Speaker 1: mean by that? What redemption is she looking for? Because 844 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,520 Speaker 1: showing up as a goddess doesn't exactly change the narrative. 845 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 1: Here I did, and we will play that for you. 846 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:14,160 Speaker 1: Paradise was definitely my redemption, and like letting everyone see 847 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 1: a different side of me and ask for what I 848 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 1: look in a bar and a guy like I'm always 849 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 1: learning and growing, But definitely Matt Susan taught me, I 850 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 1: want someone who trust me and listens to me. Um, 851 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:31,839 Speaker 1: because I still think my side was valid. Interesting. Did 852 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 1: you get any insight as to like how long she 853 00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,920 Speaker 1: might be sticking around if that really did come to 854 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: fruition for her? You know, I tried to get that 855 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 1: out of her and she was very put her foot 856 00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:45,839 Speaker 1: down on that, but she definitely says or from what 857 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:48,439 Speaker 1: I got from it, I feel she wants a new 858 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 1: image on herself for this, which will be interesting to 859 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 1: see how that will play out. Now we also know 860 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,840 Speaker 1: that you got to talk to Kenny, who obviously showed 861 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 1: up to Paradise in uh in a very fashionable way. 862 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,080 Speaker 1: His skin suit was on. At least that's what we think. Uh. 863 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 1: What did can you have to say, Kenny? I love 864 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 1: talking to He did bring up being naked and everything, 865 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 1: and he obviously and I talked to him and just 866 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:14,960 Speaker 1: then at the same time he made it seem like 867 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 1: he was actually naked, So I don't know. But he 868 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 1: did say that the new dynamic is wild, and he 869 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,760 Speaker 1: gave me a little insight on that as well. It's wild, 870 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: it's I think it's it's way more over the top 871 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 1: than you're used to uh there. There's just more people. 872 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:35,439 Speaker 1: There's obviously with the uh Chris not being there, it's 873 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:39,239 Speaker 1: a different dynamic with different posts and uh Wells doing 874 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,840 Speaker 1: a little bit more than he normally does. So like 875 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,040 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's a kind of a whole different show. 876 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 1: It's the same show, but it's different. Did anybody talk 877 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: about what their favorite part of being in Paradise was? 878 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:52,720 Speaker 1: A lot of them did, majority of them. One funny 879 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 1: thing I found was they said that Wells makes great 880 00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 1: drinks as a bartender, and we have a lot of 881 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,960 Speaker 1: practice at it. I know he was he was experimenting 882 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 1: when I was with him ten days ago. He was 883 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,920 Speaker 1: worried that he doesn't make good Dreams drinks and he's 884 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:08,879 Speaker 1: gonna experiment in the off season so he can get 885 00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:10,840 Speaker 1: better at it for next year. So it's good that 886 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,560 Speaker 1: they thought he was. He was pouring some nice strings 887 00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:16,320 Speaker 1: for him. Now find a couple of things here, Kendall. 888 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: We did, uh pick up some audio clips. You got 889 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 1: to talk to Hannah Ann and Mike Johnson, who we 890 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,120 Speaker 1: know are not showing up to Paradise, but they were 891 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:27,840 Speaker 1: at the premiere. What were they doing there and what 892 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:31,359 Speaker 1: they have to say? Yeah, So Hannah And and Mike 893 00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 1: Johnson were there on behalf of The Ultimate Surfer, which 894 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 1: the premiere party was also for, and that will premiere 895 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 1: on Monday as well. But Hannah And told me she 896 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,920 Speaker 1: was so excited to see her old cast mates on 897 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,239 Speaker 1: this season. And Mike also said he wants to be 898 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 1: jealous of the love that he will see on this 899 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,440 Speaker 1: season since I'm not there. I want to see drama. 900 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:51,359 Speaker 1: I want to see love, and I want to see 901 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 1: I want to make I want to be jealous. That's 902 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:56,319 Speaker 1: what I want to see. When I watched all my 903 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 1: TV screens all the August six I want to be 904 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 1: jealous because I wasn't to be JeOS because someone else 905 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 1: may love. And I'm being very genuine I say that 906 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 1: right because I love love. You know, one of my 907 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 1: favorite movies A Notebook. Okay, Well, Kendall, before we um 908 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:14,399 Speaker 1: let you go, I did want to talk. I wanted 909 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 1: to talk about something we haven't even talked about yet. 910 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, how do we forget about the connection 911 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 1: that Natasha and Brendan seemed to be sparking there. I 912 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,600 Speaker 1: don't know if they kissed, which is maybe why we 913 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:29,880 Speaker 1: left them out of that couple list, but there definitely 914 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:33,440 Speaker 1: had something. Uh. Natasha is actually really good friends with 915 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 1: Joe though, because they host the podcast together. So did 916 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 1: she talk about her relationship with Brendan or her friendship 917 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 1: with Joe or anything like that? Yes, so there she 918 00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:43,800 Speaker 1: did talk about her friendship with Joe, and she also 919 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:46,440 Speaker 1: gave her opinion on Joe and Kendall, which I found 920 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,879 Speaker 1: very interesting. So I definitely want you to hear that, 921 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:51,160 Speaker 1: you know, me and whom are really close. It was hard. 922 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:54,399 Speaker 1: And I adore Kendall and I've met her separately from Joe, 923 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:56,840 Speaker 1: you know, when they were not together, and I adore 924 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,920 Speaker 1: her as well. She's really sweet. But I was like, 925 00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:01,359 Speaker 1: look here, y'all, I can't get in the middle of this. 926 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 1: This is hard. This is hard for me. And it 927 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:06,080 Speaker 1: was weird, I mean, and I felt his pain, you know, 928 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 1: like he was like, oh, what's happening, And the moment 929 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,359 Speaker 1: he walked in, I mean, or the moment she walked in, 930 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,319 Speaker 1: it was it was like, yeah, I filed for him, 931 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:16,560 Speaker 1: could on one? I mean, can you imagine your your 932 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:18,839 Speaker 1: dating someone? Maybe last time he was there, he fell 933 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 1: in love with her, and now they're on the beach again, 934 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:25,320 Speaker 1: not together together crazy or maybe they get back together. 935 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:28,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. And that was Tammy with her too, 936 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,800 Speaker 1: saying maybe they get back together, so we'll have to see. Also, 937 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:35,720 Speaker 1: Tammy and Natasha both gave me their opinion on Greg 938 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 1: and if he was showing his acting skills and Natasha 939 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,920 Speaker 1: has a side where she supports Greg, but Tammy has 940 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 1: a side where she's friends with Katie, so it's different. 941 00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:46,840 Speaker 1: I'm very good friends with Katie, so I am going 942 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 1: to take her side no matter what. But I do 943 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 1: see the point of his side a little bit, and 944 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:54,040 Speaker 1: her side, I do see where she's seen a little 945 00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 1: bit blindsided for the way he was acting, because they 946 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,359 Speaker 1: were very strong up until that point. So I mean, 947 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: it was just a bad breakup, you know, and it 948 00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: hurts no matter, no matter. Yeah, I personally think I've 949 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 1: also talked to Greg and I you know, we have 950 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:11,440 Speaker 1: a podcast. We talked to a lot of people here 951 00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:16,719 Speaker 1: in the nation. Um, I think that it was a 952 00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 1: hard breakup. I personally, and I said this on my podcast, 953 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: I personally resonated with Greg Moore just because I've been 954 00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 1: in relationships where I've sought validation. So watching it, I 955 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 1: don't think that Katie was invalid in her feelings. I 956 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,920 Speaker 1: also don't think that Greg was invalid in his feelings. 957 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:36,959 Speaker 1: I do think that they both could have handled things 958 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 1: better on her side and his side, And I do 959 00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,839 Speaker 1: think that it was a really bad breakup. I really 960 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 1: have you guys take on that Yeah, yeah, I do. 961 00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,920 Speaker 1: And I think that people who like the world out there. 962 00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 1: It was so Greg versus Katie versus thing. There's some teams. 963 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:54,920 Speaker 1: It was a bad breakup. Everyone had their points yea, 964 00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:57,919 Speaker 1: and it just didn't work out. Yeah, And I'm and 965 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,920 Speaker 1: and to say though, when I look at Kadie and Blake, 966 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 1: it's like that's your person. Yeah, Kendall, thanks for showing 967 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,959 Speaker 1: up to the party. Thanks for getting these interviews. It's 968 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:11,879 Speaker 1: super fun to hear their reactions. You did great. Thanks 969 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,600 Speaker 1: for all your work. Uh and we'll see soon. All right, Well, 970 00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 1: we wanted to get alums on almost every episode of 971 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 1: the recaps of Bachelor in Paradise, So today we have 972 00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 1: Ashley Fraser Williams. Hello, Ashley, Hi, Hi. You were on 973 00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:35,880 Speaker 1: Bachelor in Paradise season one, which is so crazy because 974 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,720 Speaker 1: it was because what are we in? Season is a seven? 975 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 1: Now a lot has changed. Let's just say that what 976 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 1: do you think has changed the most? Well, it's still 977 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 1: like just the whole dynamic of having social media mixed 978 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,880 Speaker 1: in with everything creates just a different environment of people 979 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:59,120 Speaker 1: to respond and act, and um, be kind of different 980 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: in the world, I guess, right, because everybody's putting on 981 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 1: a show a little bit more, I think, right, because 982 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:08,919 Speaker 1: now you understand the importance of keeping the audience, so 983 00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:13,920 Speaker 1: you know, definitely speaking of putting on a show. We 984 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,360 Speaker 1: see at the end of the episode, Demi is walking 985 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: in and we were just talking. Okay, so so what 986 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:23,200 Speaker 1: were your impressions of Demi walking because they're just talking 987 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: about this, but I would love another person's opinion. Well, 988 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:30,239 Speaker 1: I think she's really good for ratings, the one you 989 00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:34,239 Speaker 1: want to watch, and um, you just hope that they 990 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 1: can really bring it. I guess, you know, so, I 991 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 1: think she'll be really interesting. I don't really like the 992 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 1: bully tactic that she has of like, oh, let me 993 00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 1: come in and create drama, and that just makes me 994 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 1: feel like she might be mean. She kind of scares 995 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 1: me a little. It is an interesting thing to admit, 996 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:56,239 Speaker 1: like coming down those stairs in the mindset of I'm 997 00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:59,040 Speaker 1: gonna come in here and mess things up. We've seen 998 00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 1: that before with the mindset of some people walking down 999 00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:05,360 Speaker 1: those stairs. I never have known it to go well, 1000 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,799 Speaker 1: Like that just never works the way they think it's 1001 00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:11,800 Speaker 1: going to. And so all those all of the people 1002 00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 1: with that mindset do get humbled at some point. With 1003 00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 1: when they when they think they're gonna come in there 1004 00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:20,000 Speaker 1: and just tear things up absolutely. And I mean we 1005 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:23,960 Speaker 1: see her crying in a little clip of the future episode, 1006 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:28,040 Speaker 1: so there may be her humbling right there. I was 1007 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:29,640 Speaker 1: talking to Ashley like an eddie about this, just a 1008 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:32,359 Speaker 1: little bit to goo and Ashley Fraser Williams. I want 1009 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 1: to hear your thoughts. What about paradise brings out the 1010 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:38,319 Speaker 1: emotions in the way that it does? How does how 1011 00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 1: does twenty some people show up to a beach and 1012 00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,319 Speaker 1: all of them feel something so deeply if they're in 1013 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:45,799 Speaker 1: a romantic relationship or even if they're not. I think 1014 00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:50,239 Speaker 1: there's several answers to that question. Number One, you're isolated, 1015 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:54,040 Speaker 1: and so you realize there's just a certain amount of 1016 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 1: time that if you don't connect games over right, and 1017 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:00,600 Speaker 1: you don't want to go home because and you hope 1018 00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:04,359 Speaker 1: for someone else to come in to match you, right. 1019 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 1: So I think it's just a bunch of different reasons 1020 00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:11,600 Speaker 1: why it gets so hyped up, right, ash That's exactly 1021 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:13,960 Speaker 1: what I said, is that pressure of time, especially if 1022 00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 1: you're somebody who is a little bit more slow to 1023 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,959 Speaker 1: open up. Yeah, Um, what's the girl that she said 1024 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 1: she was um Abigail yeah, which, by the way, I 1025 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:27,359 Speaker 1: have my notes on her. Oh my god, I love her. 1026 00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 1: First of all, I'm so far behind on The Bachelor 1027 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:31,839 Speaker 1: because now I have two kids running around me and 1028 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:35,399 Speaker 1: it's a madhouse around here, so I barely have time 1029 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:39,920 Speaker 1: to eat myself. So, um, I'm so far behind. But 1030 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:41,759 Speaker 1: I really liked her so and now I want to 1031 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,680 Speaker 1: learn more about her and Noah. I think they're so cute. 1032 00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:46,880 Speaker 1: It's so cute. Would you say that they were the 1033 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:49,720 Speaker 1: couple that you're rooting for the most as of now? 1034 00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:55,959 Speaker 1: I mean as of someone that I think is more 1035 00:55:56,080 --> 00:56:00,759 Speaker 1: on my level of calmness now that I'm old der more. 1036 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:02,800 Speaker 1: I hate to say mature because I don't want to 1037 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:05,759 Speaker 1: say it sound like anyone else is less mature. But 1038 00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 1: it's like they seem more ready maybe right, Yeah, they're 1039 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:13,440 Speaker 1: they're there for that and they're excited for that. I 1040 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,440 Speaker 1: felt that, and I understand what you're saying. It's not 1041 00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 1: like you're saying I'm more mature than the rest of 1042 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:21,480 Speaker 1: this cast. He's saying you can tell that she's ready 1043 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,160 Speaker 1: for this romantic connection, just similar to you know, when 1044 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,840 Speaker 1: I was watching Ashley, I ken Eddie on the show 1045 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,839 Speaker 1: before we were friends and before I knew her, well, 1046 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:30,920 Speaker 1: you could tell she really wants to be in a 1047 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 1: romantic relationship. Um and and that was something that is 1048 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:37,840 Speaker 1: visible now to both of you. And then I'm gonna 1049 00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:39,759 Speaker 1: step back here, But to both of you, I have 1050 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:43,680 Speaker 1: a really interesting question that I've always been intrigued by. 1051 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:46,480 Speaker 1: When you so you as you said, you couple up 1052 00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:49,279 Speaker 1: because you are interested one in the person, and too 1053 00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 1: you want to stay around just in case maybe your 1054 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: forever person comes down those stairs, which means that there's 1055 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:58,279 Speaker 1: a ton of breakups or there's a ton of relationships 1056 00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 1: ending a new one starting. I know in my life 1057 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 1: breakups are really hard, and I maybe I put too 1058 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 1: much weight on but they also sometimes feel very awkward, 1059 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:08,760 Speaker 1: like you don't really necessarily want to see that person 1060 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:12,480 Speaker 1: again just because you've shared moments with them. And then 1061 00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 1: it's like, hey, on this beach, you're surrounded by your 1062 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 1: ex is for the entirety of the show unless you 1063 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:20,439 Speaker 1: couple up week one with your person that you're gonna 1064 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 1: be with at the end. How awkward is it to 1065 00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:24,480 Speaker 1: break up and move on? Or is it just kind 1066 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 1: of like a spoken rule that yeah, things are gonna 1067 00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 1: end the most awkward thing ever. Okay, that's what this is. Like. 1068 00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:34,520 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, it's so awkward when they somebody breaks 1069 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 1: up with you and you're like, okay, but I'll still 1070 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:40,200 Speaker 1: see you at breakfast tomorrow morning. So um, then we'll 1071 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 1: look at each other and smile awkwardly and just will 1072 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:44,919 Speaker 1: know it won't happen. But you know, maybe I'll see 1073 00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 1: you go on a date with somebody else and it'll 1074 00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: be really weird because we just kissed the night before, 1075 00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:53,680 Speaker 1: and I'm okay, I'm with you there. I totally agree 1076 00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 1: with that. But I also feel like in this specific environment, 1077 00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:01,960 Speaker 1: there's some sort of way and how we all, all 1078 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,440 Speaker 1: of the bachelor nations somehow gets through it and we 1079 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 1: all stick around and we're all still there, Like as 1080 00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,840 Speaker 1: awkward as it is, we still do it and are 1081 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 1: still able to I guess compartmentalize. I'm sure it's very 1082 00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:20,000 Speaker 1: similar to what a fraternity and so already go through 1083 00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:21,680 Speaker 1: because you know how you have like you're the ones 1084 00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:24,160 Speaker 1: that you're paired with and you always have to have 1085 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 1: parties and dances and stuff of them, like if that 1086 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:30,760 Speaker 1: happens all the time there, so that might be more relatable. Yeah, true, 1087 00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:34,320 Speaker 1: that's true, but it's interesting because I feel like it 1088 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 1: doesn't really bother me. I feel like I didn't play 1089 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:40,920 Speaker 1: my season very well looking back, But I think my 1090 00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 1: problem was on my season was there were more friends 1091 00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 1: on my case then, so I kind of felt not 1092 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:51,440 Speaker 1: stuck because it was still my choice, but I felt 1093 00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 1: like Graham was like my only option kind of, and 1094 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:55,720 Speaker 1: so I was like, well, I'm going to stick it 1095 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 1: out with him because everybody else here's my friend. And 1096 00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 1: then I kind got into deep and then didn't know 1097 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:05,600 Speaker 1: how to get out, you know, looking back, So I 1098 00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:08,520 Speaker 1: don't know, I feel like that's kind of part layed 1099 00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:12,000 Speaker 1: into a different thing. But I mean you still like, 1100 00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 1: I guess it would have been awkward to have not 1101 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:17,560 Speaker 1: been with him and seeing with someone else, but I 1102 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 1: mean we all see how that went. No, you're actually 1103 00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:23,479 Speaker 1: really right about that. Is their privacy in this place though, 1104 00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:26,920 Speaker 1: like we see everybody. I mean we only see like 1105 00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:30,480 Speaker 1: the camera angles from the people watching, and it feels 1106 00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 1: like everybody can watch each other kiss and hang out 1107 00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 1: and make out. Like is there any place to just 1108 00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 1: get away? I mean, if you really want to get away, 1109 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:40,440 Speaker 1: you could, but you're gonna have a camera follow you. 1110 00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:43,080 Speaker 1: But if you didn't want everyone seeing you, right, ash, 1111 00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 1: don't you feel like, yeah, they're go like balconies and 1112 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 1: like little areas. You can definitely get like privacy to 1113 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:50,720 Speaker 1: make out what I mean. Clearly you can tell that 1114 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,120 Speaker 1: they don't care, right, They're like, hey, let me let 1115 00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:57,720 Speaker 1: everyone know. So it is taken, that's true. You almost 1116 00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:01,280 Speaker 1: wanted to be out there. Interesting, that's that's heavy. So 1117 01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:03,640 Speaker 1: you're like, there's a moment in the mind of the people, 1118 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,560 Speaker 1: like I want to show that I'm with this person 1119 01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:09,480 Speaker 1: so nobody else steps on. Yeah, because I can remember 1120 01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 1: people not knowing of like certain couples, and then you'd 1121 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:15,240 Speaker 1: be like, oh, and then there's so and so and 1122 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:16,880 Speaker 1: so and so, and then like the other person that's 1123 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:18,560 Speaker 1: been around for just as long as you was like 1124 01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 1: wait what No, it's like oh yeah, oh yeah, you 1125 01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:27,720 Speaker 1: didn't know that, right, That's good stuff. That's what I 1126 01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:30,800 Speaker 1: would get into, Like I really love yeah, I just 1127 01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:33,320 Speaker 1: love the like. But then you have a demmy girl 1128 01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:36,919 Speaker 1: come in and she's like, oh really I really wanted him. Oh, 1129 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 1: but now that he's taken, let me hop in. And 1130 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,680 Speaker 1: then happens to you've seen it, we see it. M 1131 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:47,480 Speaker 1: how often is that successful? Okay? So, uh, you have 1132 01:00:47,520 --> 01:00:49,440 Speaker 1: your notes in front of you. We've just mentioned that 1133 01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:53,560 Speaker 1: Abigail Noah relationship, we've talked about Demmi coming down the stairs. 1134 01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:56,360 Speaker 1: You really want to ask about that? Um, what are 1135 01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,560 Speaker 1: your feelings after watching and being a part of this 1136 01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:02,520 Speaker 1: on David's age rule and also in comparison to Wells 1137 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:04,480 Speaker 1: with Wells being there as well, like, how do you 1138 01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 1: like this dynamic? Okay, here's what I think. I think 1139 01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:13,520 Speaker 1: Wells needs to step up and be the hell Okay, yeah, 1140 01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:16,520 Speaker 1: oh really okay? Yeah, So I didn't think about that 1141 01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:19,640 Speaker 1: until I saw him, and just the way he is 1142 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,760 Speaker 1: on camera is so good. He's really good. I like 1143 01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:25,920 Speaker 1: I asked questions. He's on everyone's level. He's been through it, 1144 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:29,760 Speaker 1: and I think he's witty enough to kind of come 1145 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:33,040 Speaker 1: up with his own lingo for the show and maybe 1146 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 1: take it into a different avenue versus saying the same 1147 01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 1: the most drama season ever, you know, like our same 1148 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 1: terms we've had forever. I think he'd be really good 1149 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:43,800 Speaker 1: for that. David Spade, I was like, oh I don't 1150 01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:47,480 Speaker 1: get this. No, now, Chris Harrison, we know is really funny. 1151 01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 1: He has really like witty personality, So I think that 1152 01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:57,280 Speaker 1: wasn't really shown into the handful of last so many seasons, right, 1153 01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 1: he didn't him his personality at the beginning. So I 1154 01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:04,920 Speaker 1: think having David Spade is awesome. I wasn't sure. I 1155 01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:07,280 Speaker 1: was like, oh, how's that going to go? But I 1156 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:10,880 Speaker 1: was hooked right away. I'm like, yes, yes, he's funny. 1157 01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:13,880 Speaker 1: But you're saying that that you think if you even 1158 01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:17,160 Speaker 1: took David away? Yeah, Okay, he filled a comedic role 1159 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 1: that was necessarily kind of, like we said, maybe a 1160 01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 1: risk alleviator for the show, just in case Wells when 1161 01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:24,400 Speaker 1: it stepped up. But you're seeing Wells now you're saying, 1162 01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:25,800 Speaker 1: I think this guy's got it on his own. He 1163 01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:27,840 Speaker 1: doesn't need anybody else. He can do this thing. And 1164 01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:31,480 Speaker 1: we came to the same conclusion. Okay, two parts to that. 1165 01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:34,960 Speaker 1: One for the Bachelor, Bachelor, Yes, I think Wales can 1166 01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:38,320 Speaker 1: do it on his own. For Paradise, there's a different 1167 01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,640 Speaker 1: way that they edit and film. It's funnier, like it 1168 01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:46,560 Speaker 1: has a more freedom type of show to it versus 1169 01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:50,439 Speaker 1: Bachelor is so much more serious. Right, so you see 1170 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,760 Speaker 1: all the funny humor and all the wittiness of the 1171 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:57,360 Speaker 1: characters that we saw in Bachelor and Bachelortte come out 1172 01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 1: in paradise. So that's where I think David would be 1173 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:04,040 Speaker 1: really good. Interesting, you know what I mean? Yeah, so 1174 01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:06,400 Speaker 1: you're you're taking it one step further and saying you 1175 01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:09,440 Speaker 1: believe well as Addams could be the host of the 1176 01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 1: Bachelor and Bachelor at the big, the big show. Yeah. Interest, 1177 01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:15,760 Speaker 1: I think for sure, I think you could handle it, 1178 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:19,680 Speaker 1: and I think America loves him, so he's a good option, 1179 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:22,040 Speaker 1: you know. All right, Well, let's talk about you for 1180 01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:24,760 Speaker 1: a little while. Yes, all right, So you have two 1181 01:03:24,840 --> 01:03:31,560 Speaker 1: daughters now, Everley is ten months and Nabe is two 1182 01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 1: and a half. As somebody who's struggling through their pregnancy, 1183 01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:41,120 Speaker 1: how how are you um? While I was pregnant? Yeah, 1184 01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 1: so Navy it was a lot easier. I thought it 1185 01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:48,760 Speaker 1: was hard. It was so much easier than Everley. Everley. 1186 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:51,439 Speaker 1: There was one point where I was in so much pain. 1187 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:54,680 Speaker 1: I mean, t am I but from I could not 1188 01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:58,200 Speaker 1: get from my bed to the bathroom. I was frozen 1189 01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:00,600 Speaker 1: and I was freaking out. Call air and I'm like 1190 01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:03,160 Speaker 1: I don't know what to do. I could not my 1191 01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:07,640 Speaker 1: pain and my tailbone was so excruciating. I couldn't put 1192 01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:11,640 Speaker 1: my toe down. I'm not like a third trimester. Um no, 1193 01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:16,320 Speaker 1: it was at the beginning. Why in your tailbone? Why? So? 1194 01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 1: What I've heard and what my doctor said is if 1195 01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:21,680 Speaker 1: you have previous injuries, a lot of times they'll come 1196 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:24,320 Speaker 1: back in your pregnancy. And when I was younger, I 1197 01:04:24,400 --> 01:04:27,480 Speaker 1: fell and fractured my tailbone, and so I think that 1198 01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:31,080 Speaker 1: came back to haunt me. No way, it was rough. 1199 01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 1: I had vertigo with Everley. That happened. I got the 1200 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:41,280 Speaker 1: flu at six weeks, which this was right before Corona hit. 1201 01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:44,880 Speaker 1: So thank god it wasn't Corona. But um, otherwise you 1202 01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:48,200 Speaker 1: know I would have been freaking out anything and everything 1203 01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 1: happened it was, it was rough. Well, Ashley is currently 1204 01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:56,160 Speaker 1: pregnant as you know. Uh, what is the best advice 1205 01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:59,320 Speaker 1: that you were given or that you could share with Ashley? Uh? 1206 01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:03,280 Speaker 1: Through the can see and then into early motherhood. The 1207 01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:07,160 Speaker 1: best as advice is to not take anyone's advice. You 1208 01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:11,760 Speaker 1: will know your child and what you want better than 1209 01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:14,959 Speaker 1: anybody else. And so what someone told me was take 1210 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,520 Speaker 1: it all in. Oh, thank you, thank you. No one 1211 01:05:17,560 --> 01:05:19,640 Speaker 1: knows whether you take it or not. You don't have 1212 01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:21,560 Speaker 1: to have a conversation with them. If it's not what 1213 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:24,080 Speaker 1: you believe or how you feel, you don't have to 1214 01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:26,320 Speaker 1: do it. When you get home and it's just you 1215 01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:29,520 Speaker 1: and your family, it's whatever you want to do, So 1216 01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:33,200 Speaker 1: do whatever feels right to you. That's a really good advice. 1217 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:37,000 Speaker 1: No one knows whether you take it or not. So 1218 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:41,480 Speaker 1: why even like I have to worry? It all comes 1219 01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:45,200 Speaker 1: to you as it's happening, Like the with Navy I 1220 01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 1: my first girl. I was just constantly worried and try 1221 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:50,000 Speaker 1: and figure it out. And I was like, this is 1222 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:54,120 Speaker 1: what society says to me. And then once it clicked 1223 01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 1: at probably like maybe I don't know, month six seven, 1224 01:05:59,760 --> 01:06:01,760 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, I just got to relax. I 1225 01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:05,360 Speaker 1: am stressing out. This is freaking me out, like everyone's 1226 01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:08,560 Speaker 1: opinions are like weighing on me. And once I let go, 1227 01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:12,120 Speaker 1: I swear everything became easier. And it's not easy, but 1228 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:14,680 Speaker 1: it just was like, oh my gosh, this is what 1229 01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:16,240 Speaker 1: I should have been doing this whole time. I get 1230 01:06:16,240 --> 01:06:20,480 Speaker 1: it now. So you s good advice. Thank you so much. 1231 01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:23,280 Speaker 1: You're welcome. Very empowering too. I mean I'm hearing it. 1232 01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:25,600 Speaker 1: I'm like, that's awesome, you know, I mean somebody who 1233 01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:28,840 Speaker 1: hopes to be a father someday, just having the confidence 1234 01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:31,080 Speaker 1: in yourself to say I've got this and you're gonna 1235 01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:34,640 Speaker 1: know yeah, you know your baby better than anybody because 1236 01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 1: you know you're gonna be a loving mom. So yeah, 1237 01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:42,560 Speaker 1: really really cool advice. I've never heard that. Um, So 1238 01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:45,919 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, And then we'll just talk about 1239 01:06:45,920 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 1: your husband, Aaron for a second. You guys got married 1240 01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:57,120 Speaker 1: in twos seven. Yeah, how did you? Of course, how 1241 01:06:57,160 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 1: did you guys meet? And like how was that dating process? 1242 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:02,720 Speaker 1: Isn't did the Bachelor teach you anything from it? Oh? 1243 01:07:02,800 --> 01:07:05,960 Speaker 1: Good questions. So I met Aaron years and years ago 1244 01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:08,360 Speaker 1: when we were all going out having fun, going out 1245 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 1: to the club and bars and all that stuff, and 1246 01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:14,400 Speaker 1: I really liked him. He was so handsome, Um, came 1247 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:17,439 Speaker 1: from a really good family, but he's so quiet and shy, 1248 01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:19,680 Speaker 1: and I did not think he liked me because he 1249 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:23,480 Speaker 1: wasn't really taking that initiative and so it kind of 1250 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:25,640 Speaker 1: just faded away. But we would see each other out 1251 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:28,200 Speaker 1: all the time and hang out and I felt like 1252 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:31,200 Speaker 1: there was a connection, but nothing ever came from it 1253 01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:36,680 Speaker 1: because he never was like Hey, you're my girl, let's go. So, um, 1254 01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:40,560 Speaker 1: we would stay in touch and then finally, um, I've 1255 01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 1: reached out to him, or he reached out to me, 1256 01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:47,080 Speaker 1: I can't remember. And we started talking and again I'm like, 1257 01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:49,520 Speaker 1: does this guy like me? Like he's spending all this 1258 01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:52,360 Speaker 1: time we were much older. This is going back to 1259 01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:56,120 Speaker 1: where we first started dating again, and I was like, 1260 01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:58,400 Speaker 1: does this guy like me? Like he's hanging out with me, 1261 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:01,880 Speaker 1: he's taking me to dinner, but he's not saying the words, 1262 01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:05,920 Speaker 1: you know, because he's just such a quiet guy. And 1263 01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:09,320 Speaker 1: so I wasn't gonna ask, you know, I needed him 1264 01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:10,880 Speaker 1: to tell me. So finally I was like, all right, 1265 01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:13,479 Speaker 1: I'm gonna move to l A. And then he was like, oh, well, 1266 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:16,320 Speaker 1: can we be together before you go? And I was like, 1267 01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:20,960 Speaker 1: wait his boyfriend before you leave? Yeah, like one of 1268 01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:24,559 Speaker 1: like like exclusive and he's like yeah. I'm like okay, 1269 01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:26,719 Speaker 1: I thought he was joking. I'm like, oh, I'm moving, 1270 01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:28,599 Speaker 1: So now he's going to like say, oh, now it's 1271 01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:32,040 Speaker 1: safe to say that, right. So then I moved. Six 1272 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:36,519 Speaker 1: months later, I'm like Aaron doing coming home and he's like, 1273 01:08:36,560 --> 01:08:37,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to step it out that I'm gonna be 1274 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:40,840 Speaker 1: there and then that was it. That's so cute. Yeah, 1275 01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:43,240 Speaker 1: and he was basically at home waiting for me. So 1276 01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:45,760 Speaker 1: he's a good looking good do I just I just 1277 01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:49,559 Speaker 1: googled him. Yeah, he's a good looking fellow. Yeah, he's 1278 01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:54,920 Speaker 1: a good looking guy for sure. Now I gotta go Instagram. Yeah, 1279 01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:57,880 Speaker 1: he's not on any social media, which is the most 1280 01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:02,360 Speaker 1: amazing thing. Like he has no idea, Like he doesn't 1281 01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:04,839 Speaker 1: get it at all. Like I have to break everything 1282 01:09:04,880 --> 01:09:07,960 Speaker 1: down for him like you would your parent, are your grandma? 1283 01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:12,240 Speaker 1: You know, like that respect for Aaron. Yes, stay on 1284 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,080 Speaker 1: to that buddy. Yeah. I like that guy. He found 1285 01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 1: his girl, he has his family, he's got his career. Yeah. 1286 01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:20,519 Speaker 1: The social time is like I think I need to 1287 01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 1: get on Facebook and check in with my friends and 1288 01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:29,120 Speaker 1: well that was six months ago and oh so good. Well, 1289 01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 1: yeah he's a great guy. Actually you are awesome. Thank 1290 01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:35,679 Speaker 1: you to thank you for having me. But actually, before 1291 01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:37,360 Speaker 1: you go, you do some really cool things going on 1292 01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:39,519 Speaker 1: in your life that we want to touch on. Ania Hill, 1293 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,559 Speaker 1: can you explain it to all of the people listening 1294 01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:45,080 Speaker 1: what it is, why they would like it, why they 1295 01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:47,920 Speaker 1: should check in on it. Yeah. So Ania Hill is 1296 01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:52,320 Speaker 1: a lifestyle brand that I created. I felt like there 1297 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:56,960 Speaker 1: was such a disconnect and wanting people of norm to 1298 01:09:57,439 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 1: have the same feeling and experience that US bloggers and 1299 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:04,840 Speaker 1: influencers get, and I wanted them to have um, really 1300 01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:07,840 Speaker 1: great product come to them in really good packaging, and 1301 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:12,519 Speaker 1: so I created a NEA Hill. It's Aaron Navy, Everley 1302 01:10:12,520 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 1: and Ashley, and that's where Ania came from. In Hill 1303 01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:18,479 Speaker 1: is basically this feeling. It's this place you want to be. 1304 01:10:18,760 --> 01:10:21,759 Speaker 1: So you know when you put on an outfit that 1305 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:24,960 Speaker 1: you feel amazing in and you're like, all of a 1306 01:10:24,960 --> 01:10:28,679 Speaker 1: sudden getting compliments and you're like, how is this possible? Today? 1307 01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:30,760 Speaker 1: I'm getting the compliments on something I just bought for 1308 01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 1: the first time and I'm wearing it. That is the hill. 1309 01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:35,080 Speaker 1: That's that feeling, that place you want to be, and 1310 01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 1: that's on top of the hill. So that's where the 1311 01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:41,920 Speaker 1: name came from. And it's basically it started off with sunglasses, 1312 01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:45,839 Speaker 1: which are our ride or Die pieces. UM. I've styled 1313 01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:49,920 Speaker 1: and designed each piece from scratch from the ground up, 1314 01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:55,720 Speaker 1: and so they're sustainable, everlasting, basic pieces that are for 1315 01:10:55,800 --> 01:10:59,200 Speaker 1: women UM. And so we've been adding clothing and all 1316 01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:02,680 Speaker 1: kinds of different things to the brand, but um my 1317 01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:05,840 Speaker 1: plan is for everybody to have a piece and for 1318 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:09,440 Speaker 1: them to have it for long term, which makes it sustainable. 1319 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:12,479 Speaker 1: So it's been really fun designing.

Welcome to the podcast, 1346 01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:47,000 Speaker 1: Caitlin from Batch Bracket. Caitlin, as you're coming on the podcast, 1347 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:50,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about what this means, the Batch Bracket. 1348 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:53,080 Speaker 1: Do you mind just given a quick recap of what 1349 01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:57,160 Speaker 1: a batch bracket is and then how our listeners can 1350 01:12:57,280 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 1: join in and compete against so many other people. Yeah? Absolutely, 1351 01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:06,840 Speaker 1: I am happy to So. I love Batch Bracket because 1352 01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:09,559 Speaker 1: it does give you an opportunity to compete against all 1353 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:12,280 Speaker 1: your friends watching the show that we all spend way 1354 01:13:12,360 --> 01:13:16,160 Speaker 1: too much time watching already. UM Batch Bracket is essentially 1355 01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:21,400 Speaker 1: like fantasy football, except for the Bachelorette. So UM Batch 1356 01:13:21,439 --> 01:13:26,280 Speaker 1: Bracket is a show an opportunity for you to compete 1357 01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:30,599 Speaker 1: with friends, get on and um make picks every single week, 1358 01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:34,639 Speaker 1: so you essentially choose your team of contestants. They are 1359 01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:37,519 Speaker 1: going to win or lose you points based on what 1360 01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:40,479 Speaker 1: they do that week. So whether they're saying, um, you 1361 01:13:40,520 --> 01:13:43,080 Speaker 1: know that someone is or isn't here for the right reasons, 1362 01:13:43,280 --> 01:13:45,680 Speaker 1: or they're making out in the ocean or reading a 1363 01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:48,599 Speaker 1: date card, things are worth positive points, things are worth 1364 01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:51,840 Speaker 1: negative points. And at the end of every episode, scoreboard 1365 01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:54,599 Speaker 1: is updated and you find out how your team did 1366 01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:58,000 Speaker 1: for the week. So super simple to join. Everyone can 1367 01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:02,320 Speaker 1: just go UM to back bracket dot com Join a league. UM. 1368 01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:05,479 Speaker 1: The almost famous league is They're right at the top 1369 01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:08,760 Speaker 1: of the join a League page, so super easy to 1370 01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:11,719 Speaker 1: find UM and yeah, you can just join a league 1371 01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:13,800 Speaker 1: right there at any friends that you want to play 1372 01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:17,280 Speaker 1: against in the scoreboard.

So for Paradise, especially because 1375 01:14:25,720 --> 01:14:27,960 Speaker 1: so many people are coming in and out the whole time, 1376 01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:30,840 Speaker 1: there's not a lot of consistency a week to week, 1377 01:14:30,960 --> 01:14:34,200 Speaker 1: so UM very much more so like Fantasy Football than 1378 01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:38,000 Speaker 1: March Madness type bracket style. UM very much choose your 1379 01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:40,519 Speaker 1: team every week. Every single episode is a new chance 1380 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:42,280 Speaker 1: to win points and a new chance to pick a 1381 01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:44,920 Speaker 1: new team. It's uh. I think it's gonna be a 1382 01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:47,040 Speaker 1: really fun way for the listeners out there to kind 1383 01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:49,320 Speaker 1: of join on and get even more involved in the show. 1384 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:51,960 Speaker 1: I know fantasy football, I've loved football forever, but fantasy 1385 01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:55,959 Speaker 1: football really gets me hyped on every game and watching 1386 01:14:56,600 --> 01:15:00,760 Speaker 1: every time a game is shown. Now, you had some 1387 01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:04,080 Speaker 1: success with batch Bracket. Do you mind sharing where it 1388 01:15:04,360 --> 01:15:06,840 Speaker 1: started and then where it's at today? How many users, 1389 01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:11,200 Speaker 1: how many people are actively involved? Yeah? Absolutely So. A 1390 01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:14,280 Speaker 1: group of friends, three other friends and myself started batch 1391 01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 1: Bracket back in UM just kind of as a fun whim. 1392 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:21,679 Speaker 1: UM begged our friends and family to join our little site. 1393 01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:23,960 Speaker 1: We had three hundred people our first season of v 1394 01:15:24,080 --> 01:15:27,400 Speaker 1: I p Um that we launched for As of the 1395 01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:29,599 Speaker 1: last season of Bachelor that we had over two hundred 1396 01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:35,200 Speaker 1: thousand people playing um or. Yeah. So it's been pretty wild. 1397 01:15:35,280 --> 01:15:37,880 Speaker 1: It's been a wild ride kind of learning what that 1398 01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:40,120 Speaker 1: means to be able to support a site for that 1399 01:15:40,160 --> 01:15:43,800 Speaker 1: many people. UM Since its creation, over five hundred thousand 1400 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:46,799 Speaker 1: people have played on batch brackets, So it's been pretty 1401 01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:50,240 Speaker 1: fun to navigate that and just um keep trying to 1402 01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:53,680 Speaker 1: improve it, just keep trying to build a better experience 1403 01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:57,000 Speaker 1: for everyone. And um, it's it's been fun to see 1404 01:15:57,000 --> 01:16:00,559 Speaker 1: how it's how it's grown. Well, congratulations, that is so cool. 1405 01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:03,840 Speaker 1: Then you did already fill out your bracket. I still 1406 01:16:03,840 --> 01:16:07,439 Speaker 1: have to do. Mind my bad. What were some of 1407 01:16:07,439 --> 01:16:11,600 Speaker 1: the things that you like wagered on? Yeah, so I 1408 01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:15,040 Speaker 1: to not give away who I picked, though, I really 1409 01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:17,360 Speaker 1: went with some of the consistent faces. I thought the 1410 01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:21,000 Speaker 1: veterans uh in Paradise would do well this season. I 1411 01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:22,920 Speaker 1: thought they knew how, they would know how to navigate 1412 01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:26,519 Speaker 1: the process. I also wanted some people that would make, um, 1413 01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:29,840 Speaker 1: make some noise, like maybe some of those bigger characters 1414 01:16:30,439 --> 01:16:33,599 Speaker 1: that would shake things up, that would be on camera 1415 01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:37,120 Speaker 1: a little bit more, even if the camera time wasn't 1416 01:16:37,120 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 1: maybe healthy time for them, because I know that the 1417 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:42,720 Speaker 1: more they're showing probably the more points that I'm gonna get. 1418 01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:44,920 Speaker 1: And so I kind of weighed both. I took my 1419 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:47,240 Speaker 1: safe picks with the veterans. I also picked some more 1420 01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,760 Speaker 1: outliers that I thought would make some noise in Paradise. 1421 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:54,200 Speaker 1: Um and and and it is fun. Now we're obviously 1422 01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:56,880 Speaker 1: one weekend to Paradise already, and some of the people 1423 01:16:56,880 --> 01:16:59,080 Speaker 1: are just hearing this for the first time. So, Caitlin, 1424 01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:02,400 Speaker 1: is it too late for listeners to sign up for 1425 01:17:02,439 --> 01:17:06,519 Speaker 1: our bracket? No, So that's one great thing is that 1426 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 1: the bracket is open throughout the full season, and there 1427 01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:12,479 Speaker 1: are so many opportunities to win points throughout the season 1428 01:17:12,520 --> 01:17:16,080 Speaker 1: that just missing one week does not, by any means 1429 01:17:16,120 --> 01:17:20,479 Speaker 1: exclude you from coming up at the top the next week. 1430 01:17:20,560 --> 01:17:24,280 Speaker 1: So definitely tons of opportunities to win points still, no 1431 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:27,479 Speaker 1: matter when you join within the season.

Caitlin, thanks again, 1452 01:18:34,720 --> 01:18:38,519 Speaker 1: thanks so much. As the first headline of this week 1453 01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:42,680 Speaker 1: uh includes Grey Grippo and it says that him and 1454 01:18:42,840 --> 01:18:47,439 Speaker 1: mckinnadorn we're talking before he went on The Bachelor. ET. 1455 01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:53,280 Speaker 1: I know, isn't that crazy? So McKenna and Greg used 1456 01:18:53,320 --> 01:18:58,439 Speaker 1: to talk last summer. According to an insider, they really 1457 01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:03,040 Speaker 1: hit it off, but long just came in the way. Um. 1458 01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:06,639 Speaker 1: They talked for about a month before things cooled off. 1459 01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:09,639 Speaker 1: They never met in person. She lives in Canada, he's 1460 01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:13,120 Speaker 1: you know, lives in New Jersey. Um. There's some proof 1461 01:19:13,200 --> 01:19:16,800 Speaker 1: of this connection because the reality stars both liked each 1462 01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:25,960 Speaker 1: other's instagrams in the early twenties. In early UM and yeah, 1463 01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:29,880 Speaker 1: so that's that's interesting. I wonder if I wonder how 1464 01:19:29,960 --> 01:19:33,800 Speaker 1: that even came to be. Yeah, yeah, that's weird right, like, 1465 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:35,680 Speaker 1: because I don't even know whether he would have been 1466 01:19:36,240 --> 01:19:43,479 Speaker 1: in casting early feels less juicy because they never met. 1467 01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:47,400 Speaker 1: They never met. Well, next headline is this, obviously, well, 1468 01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:49,720 Speaker 1: you have the opportunity to have Justin Glaze, who was 1469 01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:53,240 Speaker 1: Katie Thurston's runner up on the season that just ended 1470 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:55,679 Speaker 1: at the Bachelor, on this podcast. So if you haven't 1471 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:58,400 Speaker 1: listened to it, I'd recommend going back and listening to it. 1472 01:19:58,400 --> 01:20:00,760 Speaker 1: It's a great episode and he was very honest. Well, 1473 01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:04,480 Speaker 1: Katie Thurston reacts uh to some of the things said 1474 01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:08,520 Speaker 1: by Justin Glaze. Uh When he said he was blindsided 1475 01:20:08,520 --> 01:20:12,640 Speaker 1: by their split, she said, I'm not surprised he was blindsided, 1476 01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:16,720 Speaker 1: just because of what him and I experienced. Unfortunately, there's 1477 01:20:16,720 --> 01:20:18,759 Speaker 1: a whole love story you guys didn't get to see. 1478 01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:22,439 Speaker 1: But him and I both agreed it doesn't matter what 1479 01:20:22,520 --> 01:20:25,519 Speaker 1: people got to know in terms of our connection. But 1480 01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:26,920 Speaker 1: he said on art and then this is how he 1481 01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:30,519 Speaker 1: responded um on our podcast, he said that you know 1482 01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:32,760 Speaker 1: we've you guys should go back and listen. It's a 1483 01:20:32,760 --> 01:20:35,200 Speaker 1: great episode with Justin. We loved having him on. He 1484 01:20:35,280 --> 01:20:36,760 Speaker 1: really opened up and you get to know what a 1485 01:20:36,760 --> 01:20:38,960 Speaker 1: sweet guy is. And it was unfortunate we didn't get 1486 01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:41,080 Speaker 1: to know him better on TV, but he said, we 1487 01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:43,000 Speaker 1: spent a month together getting to know each other, talking 1488 01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:47,160 Speaker 1: about our families. Um, this morning, I'm picturing how great 1489 01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:49,360 Speaker 1: today is going to be and like what our life 1490 01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:51,760 Speaker 1: is gonna actually look like. And that's that. But it's 1491 01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:54,400 Speaker 1: so hard you don't want it to end. It's hard, man, 1492 01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:57,720 Speaker 1: It hurts. Man. I gave this my everything. There are 1493 01:20:57,760 --> 01:21:01,040 Speaker 1: a lot of emotions. Well, we really enjoyed having them on. So, 1494 01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:04,200 Speaker 1: like I said, I would recommend going back and listening. Well. Uh, 1495 01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:06,400 Speaker 1: speaking of Katie Thurston, it seems like her and Blake 1496 01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:08,960 Speaker 1: moy's are having a lot of fun and enjoying their 1497 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:12,680 Speaker 1: first week out in the public. Uh. And we see that. 1498 01:21:13,000 --> 01:21:15,040 Speaker 1: One of the examples of this is Blake moyne shares 1499 01:21:15,160 --> 01:21:19,200 Speaker 1: video in bed with Katie Thurston after the Bachelortte finale. Yeah, 1500 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:23,040 Speaker 1: so there is a video Katie and Blake there in 1501 01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:26,280 Speaker 1: bed for the first time since our relationship has been out, 1502 01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:31,120 Speaker 1: and they're in there with his dogs and the the 1503 01:21:31,320 --> 01:21:33,040 Speaker 1: In the video, it says, I don't want it, I 1504 01:21:33,040 --> 01:21:37,120 Speaker 1: don't want your bone. Take that back, and that's what 1505 01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:40,000 Speaker 1: Katie says in the clip. I think there's like a 1506 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:42,720 Speaker 1: little indu window there. But they're talking, you know, they're 1507 01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:47,160 Speaker 1: referring to the dog bone. It's just them being silly 1508 01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:50,240 Speaker 1: and bad. It's uh, it's a big week for them, 1509 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:53,519 Speaker 1: first week as a public couple. Well, the last few 1510 01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:57,519 Speaker 1: headlines here, big one in Bachelor Nation, bachel Nations. Jeff 1511 01:21:57,560 --> 01:22:01,360 Speaker 1: Holme files restraining order against be Hazed. This according to 1512 01:22:01,439 --> 01:22:09,960 Speaker 1: E and well every other out there, Yeah, that's pretty crazy. Um. So, basically, 1513 01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:14,800 Speaker 1: Robbie and Jeff and Chase mcnarry they used to all 1514 01:22:14,800 --> 01:22:19,639 Speaker 1: live together in the Santa Monica area, and then Chase 1515 01:22:19,720 --> 01:22:23,599 Speaker 1: got out of that brow house. Good for him. Jeff 1516 01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:26,280 Speaker 1: and Robbie continued living together, and there's always like kind 1517 01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:30,280 Speaker 1: of a reputation for being a party house. Um. And 1518 01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:36,800 Speaker 1: apparently once Robbie moved out, he kept coming back in unannounced, 1519 01:22:37,560 --> 01:22:44,400 Speaker 1: so Jeff ended up filing for a restraining order. It's 1520 01:22:44,479 --> 01:22:47,600 Speaker 1: unclear from the documents whether their friendship was soured and 1521 01:22:47,680 --> 01:22:52,000 Speaker 1: Robbie moved out, but allegedly, according to the documents, Jeff 1522 01:22:52,080 --> 01:22:56,120 Speaker 1: states that at least once a week Robbie enters his 1523 01:22:56,280 --> 01:23:01,080 Speaker 1: property without permission and it becomes hostile. He says, I 1524 01:23:01,120 --> 01:23:04,479 Speaker 1: do not feel safe around him, and Jeff continues to 1525 01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:07,400 Speaker 1: say that he threatens me and still hasn't stopped to 1526 01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:11,240 Speaker 1: this day. He claims that he has belongings in there 1527 01:23:11,360 --> 01:23:14,200 Speaker 1: and that is why he enters, but he's not on 1528 01:23:14,240 --> 01:23:18,080 Speaker 1: the least and it's making me fearful. Wow, it's a 1529 01:23:18,080 --> 01:23:21,479 Speaker 1: big step to get a restraining order, and uh, follow 1530 01:23:21,520 --> 01:23:24,719 Speaker 1: that story as it continues. Obviously it's temporarily I think 1531 01:23:25,240 --> 01:23:28,559 Speaker 1: in in place right now, and over time we'll see 1532 01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:32,400 Speaker 1: if it goes and and becomes permanently granted. Well, Uh, 1533 01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:36,639 Speaker 1: Tasia Adams was on this podcast. Uh spoke very openly 1534 01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:39,600 Speaker 1: when she came on about her relationship with Zac and 1535 01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:42,360 Speaker 1: kind of how they're processing through this season of life 1536 01:23:42,479 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 1: or Tassia is super busy and Zack's running um his facilities. Well, 1537 01:23:47,120 --> 01:23:50,559 Speaker 1: the headline reads this. Tasia Adams responds after fan questions, 1538 01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:56,280 Speaker 1: then her cryptic never settle post about Zach Clark. Um, 1539 01:23:56,320 --> 01:24:01,040 Speaker 1: all right, so basically okay should put out a tweet 1540 01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:04,200 Speaker 1: on Friday where she said never settled dot dot dot 1541 01:24:04,680 --> 01:24:07,879 Speaker 1: and then a fan said this better not be about 1542 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:12,720 Speaker 1: Zach and then Tasha responded saying, Chill Coralie and I 1543 01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:17,040 Speaker 1: think that was the girl's name, Chill Coralie. Um, I 1544 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:20,400 Speaker 1: don't think it is about Zach. She was recently on 1545 01:24:20,439 --> 01:24:23,800 Speaker 1: our podcast, like Benj just said, and she talked about 1546 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:26,920 Speaker 1: how she feels like their relationship while they have to 1547 01:24:26,960 --> 01:24:30,120 Speaker 1: be away from each other a lot, it still works 1548 01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:34,720 Speaker 1: for them. M Well, uh, obviously it's never easy to 1549 01:24:34,760 --> 01:24:36,439 Speaker 1: be in a relationship, especially when the two people are 1550 01:24:36,439 --> 01:24:39,800 Speaker 1: living apart and moving on. But again, she spoke about 1551 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:42,600 Speaker 1: it with Ashley on the Almost Famous Podcast, which is 1552 01:24:42,640 --> 01:24:44,880 Speaker 1: this podcast, so it's pretty easy to go back listen 1553 01:24:44,920 --> 01:24:50,240 Speaker 1: to that episode to get even more details about that headline.
