Will you never forget? As a viewer? 9 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,599 Speaker 2: So I'm talking you're not on the show, you're viewing it. 10 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 2: Or I would actually say this, you could have been 11 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 2: on this season and just been an a spectator in 12 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 2: the house, yes, or in paradise while this was happening. 13 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 3: Okay, sounds good. I will keep that in mind going 14 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 3: through these picks. 15 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 2: No, that's my first question. 16 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 3: Oh okay, all right, your first question is the one 17 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,639 Speaker 3: that stands out in my mind that you were not 18 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 3: a part of, but that you were I were not 19 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 3: a part of. That would be I think, because so 20 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 3: many people have named this as one of their most memorable, 21 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 3: it has to be Hannah Brown moving the podium away 22 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:21,479 Speaker 3: from what's his name? And then I also really think 23 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 3: about her saying that we left in a windmill four 24 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 3: times like that may be the I think that is 25 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 3: the quote of the franchise, Like that is the one 26 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 3: that stands out to. 27 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 4: Me the most. 28 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 3: Maybe I'm being self obsessed and thinking that the second 29 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 3: most memorable line in the franchise. Maybe when Kelsey looked 30 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 3: at me and said, I know what you did. Do 31 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 3: you have any memorable lines that are coming to you 32 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 3: besides those two? 33 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: I think it's Chris Harrison yelling he jumped. 34 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, that's funny. See that's more of a 35 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 3: scene than like a statement. In my head, that been 36 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 3: that as a viewer was one of the. 37 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 4: Most memorable moments. 38 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 3: Also one that I think abso freakinglutely lived up to 39 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 3: the Tea's. Everybody was concerned that that wasn't gonna live up, 40 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 3: but it certainly did, if not even better than it 41 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 3: was because he wasn't running after a girl. He was 42 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 3: running from production, which made it so good. 43 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 2: So good. 44 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 4: Let's see other memorable moments. 45 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 3: No, you just have to have one. 46 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 2: We're just doing one. 47 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 3: Okay, well I kind of yeah, but if I have 48 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 3: to choose one, the fence jump. Yeah, yeah, I'll go 49 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 3: with the fence jump. That's my favorite. That was one 50 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 3: of my favorable shock moments of all time. 51 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 4: What about you. 52 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: As a viewer, I'll never forget sitting in the Bachelor 53 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 2: Mansion on Night one, watching and I forget his name 54 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 2: at this point, call Chris Harrison Chris Hansen because he 55 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 2: was so intoxicated and. 56 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 3: Sitting next to your husband. 57 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 2: I was sitting next to Jared on the couch, and 58 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:20,119 Speaker 2: I remember that, I'll never forget that feeling of what 59 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 2: in the world and are we watching? And like this 60 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: is gonna be on television one day and we get 61 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 2: a front row seat and it kind of was like us. 62 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,839 Speaker 2: It was in the back of my mind the whole time, 63 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 2: was I have a front row seat at some of 64 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 2: this like madness and nobody's gonna believe it. Nobody's gonna 65 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: believe it. 66 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 3: So I would also, but that's your most as a viewer. 67 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: That seems to be like the one that you're involved in. 68 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: Okay, as a viewer of a television show, then I would. 69 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: I had the most emotional reaction to Rachel Lindsay and 70 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 2: Peter Krause sitting down having their last conversation. 71 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 3: That is a really really good one. Uh what about switcheroos? 72 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,119 Speaker 3: Not to like add more in there. But our switcheroo, 73 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: I feel like was teased too much for me that 74 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 3: I knew it was coming. And then Jason Mesnix I 75 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 3: didn't really watch. I will always say that I was 76 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 3: flabberg acid by Devin's behavior with Jen anything any other 77 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 3: like endings that were just absolutely mind blowing. 78 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: Devin and Jin gave me the most like visceral, like 79 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 2: I hate every second of this exactly. 80 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 3: Other ones. 81 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 2: The other ones were like shocking out of love right, 82 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 2: but like no love. Yeah, I would also, I mean 83 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: you have to throw in the like Rachel Rekia and 84 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 2: Tino when she showed it to the house. Yeah, and 85 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 2: he couldn't explain himself and it backfired badly. You know 86 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 2: some of those moments, what moments will you never forget 87 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 2: from your time on the show. So any season that 88 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,239 Speaker 2: you were a part of, what moment when you think 89 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 2: of this represents my time on the show. 90 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 3: Well, I think definitely me in the bad Lands with Kelsey, 91 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 3: and then secondly, I think the one that most people 92 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 3: would think of besides that was probably Nick telling me 93 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 3: that I would never be with Jared. People remind me 94 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 3: of that all the time. Why why did he say 95 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 3: that to you, Well, he was trying to be a 96 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 3: good friend, and he was treating me in a way 97 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 3: that like he wanted me to know that I wasn't 98 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 3: going to be the exception to the rule. If we're 99 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 3: playing by you know, the rom Com standard, and for 100 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 3: pretty much most of people out there, you know, like 101 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 3: I would say ninety percent, it's probably best to lead 102 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 3: your friend in that direction to avoid them getting further hurt. Obviously, 103 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 3: like this was just I was the exception to the 104 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 3: rule and it just didn't apply. As you were cool 105 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 3: that the story ended up that way, but I know 106 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 3: that he was like trying to get me to let 107 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 3: go m I don't think he was being malicious, but 108 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 3: you know, with most friends, they would be a little 109 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 3: bit more gentle about it. But it was definitely the 110 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 3: tough love approach, which oftentimes I don't respond to the 111 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 3: best and I obviously didn't listen. 112 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 2: So you are the exception, Ashley. From my time on 113 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: the show, I kind of mentioned it. I have a 114 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 2: lot more memories that stand out to me when I 115 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: was on The Bachelorette that I do the Bachelor. The 116 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 2: Bachelor was kind of a mode of like survival and 117 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 2: I felt like it was trying to like solve the 118 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 2: problems one step at a time, And so these huge 119 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 2: like moments never felt big to me because I always 120 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 2: tried to like take a deep breath and walk through them. 121 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: Viewers might have a different perspective. I do remember Jojo 122 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 2: locking herself in the bathroom, and I'll never forget the 123 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 2: feeling of my goodness. This went from like a nice, 124 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 2: easy process to now this is the kind of was like, 125 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: this is no longer a TV show. Like somebody's very 126 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 2: hurt and I don't know what to say, and I 127 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 2: feel like I'm losing my wits and I'm losing any 128 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 2: ability to like converse or to navigate because there was 129 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 2: no solution. It was going to end in some type 130 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 2: of hurt and I didn't know how to I was 131 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 2: not good at handling that. So that was a big moment. 132 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 2: But on the Bachelorette, there was just so many moments 133 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 2: that people were doing ridiculous thing like things like Josh 134 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 2: Alberts getting his haircut by Caitlin and they gave her 135 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 2: dull clippers.

I didn't even think about it anymore. 178 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 3: But I appreciate that you guys do give it so 179 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 3: much thought. For sure, thank you. 180 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 2: I mean again, for me, it's a lot of bachelorette moments. 181 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 2: It's usually my sex ed date. People will still talk 182 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:11,439 Speaker 2: about that. 183 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 3: That as I do all the time. 184 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was a fun day for me. I 185 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 2: remember being so nervous and having that feeling of okay, 186 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 2: I did okay. And then a lot of people bring 187 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 2: up the Green Hall date that Caitlin and I had. 188 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 2: I think it was my first one on one and 189 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 2: I think the reason that they relate to that so 190 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: much is because it was a day and there was 191 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 2: very few out of you know, seventy plus days of 192 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: filming between The Bachelor and the time I was on 193 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 2: the Bachelorette that I felt like I could just be myself, 194 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 2: like where there was no like regard for the cameras 195 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 2: or how things would come off. It was just the 196 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: perfectly fun date for me. 197 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 3: What was it. 198 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 2: We went to the dance hall and like outside of 199 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 2: San Antonio, and it was we like had a big day, 200 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 2: a dancing day. We learned a line dance, and then 201 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 2: there was an old veteran there who kind of gave 202 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 2: us some wisdom and advice. Oh yeah, it was really 203 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 2: it was just like a fun day. And so they'll 204 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 2: bring that up a lot every once in a while 205 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 2: when like my buddies though, bring up the boxing date 206 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 2: with when I got knocked out by Jared. Quite often 207 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 2: in my life they bring that up, which is good 208 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 2: and healthy for me. I remember it because the my 209 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 2: contact flew out and I really didn't have any extra 210 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 2: payers and so as soon as I got off The Bachelor, 211 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 2: I got Lasik surgery, so I didn't have to deal 212 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 2: with that again. 213 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 4: Great. 214 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 3: Great, those are great memories, except for, you know, getting 215 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 3: punched up by don't Bill Jared end up going to 216 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,959 Speaker 3: to the hospital. So hey, Jared, what's your most memorable 217 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 3: moment from the show. It goes proposing to you to 218 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 3: which that should be my most memorable moment, right it 219 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 3: wasn't in your top five, Jared. The only reason that 220 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 3: I don't think about that moment a lot is because, well, one, 221 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 3: I feel like they ruined it in the actual episode. 222 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 3: In the context of the episode, I really really was 223 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: mad about that. And then it's like such a blur. 224 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 3: It's just such a blur. 225 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 2: Proposing is a blur. 226 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 3: No proposing, I know, is a blur. Being proposed to 227 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 3: is also a blur. So when I think about it, 228 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 3: I don't even think about me being in the moment. 229 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 3: I actually think about what it looked like from a 230 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 3: third party's perspective, because it was on TV. 231 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 2: I don't remember proposing to Jessica at all. I mean, 232 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 2: I remember like a little bit of it leading up 233 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 2: and like the walk that we did, but I don't 234 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 2: remember anything about like the actual moment. It was such 235 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 2: a nerve wracking experience. Yeah. 236 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 3: Actually, I think so much more about the moment that 237 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 3: I saw Jared for the first time and that first 238 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 3: day in Paradise that is far. 239 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 4: More of an It had far more of an impact 240 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 4: on me. 241 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 3: Jared just said from behind the scenes, he said that 242 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 3: Night one stands out to him as a big memory. 243 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 4: I would also agree that my night one too, And then. 244 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 3: Ben already said his Night one on Bachelorette, Yeah, because 245 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 3: he was terrified. 246 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:47,319 Speaker 2: But I think for me, when I think of Jared, 247 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 2: I think there's some iconic moments in the franchise, and 248 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 2: it could have just been me as an experiencer of this. 249 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 2: But I always like liked Jared as a human, nice guy. 250 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 2: He is very intelligent, He was funny, He was a 251 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 2: calming presence for me during the show. But he was 252 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 2: never this like threatening quite honestly, this threat when it 253 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 2: came to who was going to end up with Caitlyn 254 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: at the end. Yeah, until New York City when he 255 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 2: had his glam makeover and he walked in and I 256 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 2: was like, goodness, dude, like what happened? And I think 257 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 2: that's a very memorable moment for me because he went 258 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 2: from like, hey, he's a buddy, he's a friend. Don't 259 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 2: know if he's gonna be with Caitlyn too. This dude 260 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 2: is like a GQ model walking back into our house. 261 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 2: What just happened? 262 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 4: We were just making fun of him. 263 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 3: We got a whole bunch of friends down in Orlando 264 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 3: and we were talking about the way that he looked 265 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 3: on the first season with that haircut, and I was like, Babe, 266 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 3: if you didn't have that haircut and you like had 267 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 3: the barber that you have today, you like. 268 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 4: May have won. 269 00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 3: So thank goodness for the haircut you had. 270 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 2: You won. 271 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 3: It just no well things, you know, I mean, he 272 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 3: would have won then before you remember me. 273 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 2: Well, hey, God has big plans, and he had a 274 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 2: big plan for you and. 275 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 3: You and me.

Yeah, Ashley. 293 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 2: In closing up this episode, obviously we asked a lot 294 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 2: of Bachelor Nation. Make sure you listen to that because 295 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 2: it's really fun to hear what moments stand out to 296 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 2: everybody else. Is there any I'm gonna switch this question 297 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 2: a little bit from what we asked everybody else? Is 298 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 2: there any like memes videos scenes from the show that 299 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 2: people send you online that make you squirm like you 300 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 2: don't like to see them? 301 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 3: All of Bachelor in Paradise season three? Yeah, any any 302 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 3: nobody sends me these videos? But if I were like, look, 303 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 3: myself up that I would see them and it would 304 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 3: probably be like me, like just attacking crystals physically. Yeah, 305 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 3: that's what I just can't can't deal with seeing No, 306 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 3: what about you there? 307 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 2: There isn't a ton from the Bachelor Bachelorette. I'd see 308 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 2: the one that rex me is Winter Games when Chris 309 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 2: Harrison sat me down and like, yeah, I sobbed. There 310 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 2: was just a lot behind the scenes of that that 311 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,959 Speaker 2: I was frustrated with when it came to why I 312 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 2: was actually there at Winter Games and what the agreement 313 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 2: was for me to be there and how I kind 314 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 2: of felt stuck. And then I also enjoyed many pieces 315 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 2: of that because of you and Dean and some others 316 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 2: getting to know Courtney through that. But that was just 317 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 2: a really like I hate watching that because I was 318 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 2: at one of my lowest points and the show took 319 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,479 Speaker 2: advantage of it, and I felt like that was the 320 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 2: first time they had really produced me in a way 321 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 2: that made my own emotions kind of they used my 322 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 2: own emotions against me and they knew it and it 323 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 2: was clear from the very beginning, and I was really frustrated. 324 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 2: So that just is raw for me still. 325 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 3: Okay, So now that you bring that up. I feel 326 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 3: like I haven't even included that chapter in any of 327 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 3: this consideration, and I think that's because I almost disassociate 328 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 3: that season for us. It's funny because it was only 329 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 3: ten days, so it's like the shortest thing. 330 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 4: Ever. 331 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 3: I feel like with Paradise season three, my frustration comes 332 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 3: about it because of a lot of like the editing choices, 333 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 3: which you know how we feel about. Sometimes I can 334 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 3: understand people can plain about editing and sometimes I can't, 335 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 3: depends on what it is. 336 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 4: But to me, that was still me. I was still me. 337 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 3: Winter Games was just a weird chapter of life. It 338 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 3: was definitely like a stepping stone, and I'm appreciative of 339 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 3: the stepping stone, but I never think about it. 340 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think about it often because it was 341 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,959 Speaker 2: It was something that should have been really fun.
