Yeah, you were just looking stressed. 18 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 3: I'm just very Henry cavill and Man of Steel, Like, 19 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 3: you know, it's very neutral. 20 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 2: So guys, if you see Jared on Instagram and he 21 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 2: doesn't look like thrilled to be on my can't run, 22 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 2: don't worry. That's just his arresting Jared face. 23 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 3: Also, I feel like the majority of the pop relation 24 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 3: to the human races like this, it's probably you know, 25 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 3: It's like I get it. You're very you're authentic, and 26 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 3: you're like very smiley, happy, go lucky type of personality. 27 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 3: But I'm sure a lot of people just fake it 28 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 3: on podcast. At least I'm not faking it. 29 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 2: It's true. Okay, So, hi, Jared's here. We were thinking 30 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 2: that we would talk about some stuff that you know, 31 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 2: we have going on, and then we also are going 32 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 2: to talk Bachelor headlines and a little bit of Jared's 33 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 2: opinion on the new style of Bachelor and Paradise. He's 34 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 2: really thrilled by it, actually, baby, I wish you had seen. 35 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 2: So he doesn't follow follow listen. Jared only watches one 36 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 2: show and that is Seinfeld. So and you guys, you 37 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 2: don't even understand. He watches NERD movie Reviewers on YouTube, 38 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 2: many hours of that and Seinfeld and that is it. 39 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 2: I could never get him to watch five hours of 40 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 2: Paradise every week. So but he watches in the background 41 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: like as I'll have it on. And Jared's really good 42 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 2: at watching things in the background. He picks up on 43 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 2: stuff because you know, he is a movie analyst, so 44 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 2: like anything that has to do with the screen he 45 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 2: has an opinion on, even if it doesn't watch it 46 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: like too intently, So I guess, like, let's start there. 47 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 2: When you were watching in bed the other night with me, 48 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 2: like you were taken aback by the stylized at it. 49 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 3: I think my overall perspective on Paradise is that it's 50 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 3: not it's not it's not Paradise anymore. It's not the 51 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 3: same show, and that's done intentionally, and maybe that is 52 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 3: for the best. 53 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 2: I don't why would it be for the best. Most 54 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: of the audience does not like this, according to polls 55 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 2: that we've conducted that other fan accounts haven't conducted, and 56 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 2: Tanner Delbert. 57 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 3: I saw Tanner's pose because I also don't watch Love Island. 58 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 3: I also don't watch a lot of these new dating 59 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 3: shows that are crushing it. So perhaps Paradise and the 60 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 3: Bachelor franchise does need to really change things up to 61 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 3: try to move into this new wave and be more 62 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 3: like these other dating shows. I don't know. All I 63 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 3: can tell you is when I was watching Paradise with 64 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 3: you the other night, it's very clearly not the same show, 65 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 3: and it's done very intentionally that way. In terms of 66 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 3: the way the cast is talking to the camera now 67 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 3: straight on, it's much more it feels like they're trying 68 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 3: to make it much cooler now with everybody, you know. 69 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 2: Everybody's supposed to be so sexy, there's nothing clumsy about them. 70 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 2: With the music Jill Jill brings a lot of realness 71 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 2: to it. 72 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 3: I miss just in terms of the the visuals, the 73 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 3: slow motion, the camera work, the music. The show is 74 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 3: not I hate saying this, the show is not very funny. 75 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: No, actually, this is what I wish you saw. I 76 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 2: was episode three because this is when the Goldens came in, 77 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 2: and you and I were both not super keen on 78 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 2: the Goldens coming in. They brought the old school Bachelor 79 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 2: in Paradise humor and a big It was just so 80 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 2: much more of a lighthearted episode. I told Ben, I 81 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 2: was like, I don't know if like they slowed it 82 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: down intentionally the edit or it just felt slower with 83 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: the older people there, But it definitely Episode three felt 84 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: more familiar to me. 85 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think listen, as cast members of Paradise, we're 86 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 3: all very lucky to be there, and as much like 87 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 3: insecurities as I have, as everybody else does have, Like 88 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: in terms of the general landscape of the world, we 89 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 3: should be made fun of, you know, we've had. We 90 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 3: had this opportunity to go on this beach and to 91 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 3: date other people, and like nobody gets to do this. 92 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 3: My point in saying that is like the show should 93 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,679 Speaker 3: make fun of us, Like they should show Ashley talking 94 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 3: to a crab or whatever you were talking to. 95 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 2: Like, oh raccoon. Oh no, I had the parrot, Claire 96 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 2: had the recoon. 97 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 3: That's right, and then like or like making me look 98 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 3: stupid because I say something dumb or things of that nature, 99 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 3: because it's funny, because we should be made fun of, 100 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 3: because it's all in lightheartedness, because at the end of 101 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 3: the day, we're so lucky, and I think a lot 102 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 3: of the cast members know that, so I guess we'll 103 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 3: watching it. They just try to make everybody look so cool, 104 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 3: and I was like, I get it, They're already cool, 105 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 3: Like I don't need you to try to emphasize that 106 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 3: they're cooler than they. 107 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 2: Already aready like in the ninety nine percentile of attractiveness. 108 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 3: That's what I mean. Like I kind of missed the 109 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 3: days even when we were on the show and the 110 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 3: show was making fun of us, it was I liked 111 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 3: it because it's just kind of like brings everybody back 112 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 3: down to earth a little bit, and it's it's just 113 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 3: funny and self deprecating, and there was a style to 114 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 3: Old Paradise. Now, granted, perhaps there needs to be a change. 115 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 3: Maybe this show is not made for us, and that's 116 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 3: totally fine. It's really whatever's best for Paradise. And so 117 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 3: my opinion is just that it's my opinion. It doesn't 118 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 3: mean that it's the best or worst thing for the 119 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:54,679 Speaker 3: future of the franchise. 120 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 2: Okay, So I want to just fill you in on 121 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 2: what happened that you didn't see, which is when I 122 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 2: started to be able to ignore the style and focus 123 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 2: on the content. Was when Susie and Justin. You know, 124 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 2: I've rooted on for Susy and Justin. They've had a 125 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 2: very similar storyline to you and me. They'd be started 126 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: out as friends, two wonderful people, and we both liked 127 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 2: them very much, and then they came to Paradise as 128 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 2: a broken up couple. There was a lot of feelings 129 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 2: there and there was like a lot of love still 130 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 2: there and it was fun to watch. Now what happened 131 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 2: was I just I don't know, do you know what happened? Okay, 132 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 2: So it's really making the internet buzz right now because 133 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 2: Lexi was like kind of like she'd gone on a 134 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 2: date with Justin. They definitely had shown interesting each other. 135 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 2: They barely made it. I don't even know that they 136 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 2: made out. Remember that scene that you saw where they 137 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 2: were making out, because there was that game that made 138 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 2: them make out. That was like their only kiss. So 139 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 2: that shows you how serious they actually were. Not very 140 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 2: in my opinion, not very. She had a lot of 141 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: reservations about him because she thought he was too fresh 142 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 2: out of a relationship to be there. So what happens 143 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 2: is he feels so bad about Susie not getting picked, 144 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 2: like Susie didn't get a rose that week, that he 145 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 2: ends up, of course having the last rose to give out, 146 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 2: and he gives the rose to Susie so she can 147 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 2: continue there and he lives and she you know, he 148 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 2: had the rose, and then Lexi had to go home, 149 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 2: except for he was like, I'm going to give this to, 150 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 2: you know, Susie, and then I'm going to excuse myself. 151 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 3: That's yeah exactly. 152 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 2: He leaves. Yeah, people are angry. Lots of people are angry 153 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 2: at him for doing this, thinking that he led Lexi on. 154 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 2: And I was like, I think it was clear that 155 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: Lexi didn't want to be with him. 156 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 3: Dude. I saw one scene with kissing booth and she 157 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 3: said you didn't want to kiss. 158 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 2: Her and she was like, this is so awkward, so 159 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 2: not me. 160 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, very clear that Lexi was not into Justin yah, 161 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 3: which again totally fine. Don't give Justin. 162 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: She's given him so much crap online, like. 163 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 3: I could, I'm team Justin, I know. 164 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 2: I was like, maybe it's just because like I know 165 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 2: him more, I know him personally. 166 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 3: Also, it's what's wrong with that move? There's nothing I 167 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 3: don't think because maybe if Lexi was into. 168 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 2: Justin, then he would have probably given it to her. 169 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 3: Or why can't they just try to develop something off 170 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 3: the show? Did he maybe talk to her about that, saying, hey, listen, 171 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 3: I'm leaving as well. You know, I'd love to like 172 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 3: see if this could happen away from Paradise. 173 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 2: Do you think that that was so you in this 174 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,719 Speaker 2: situation that we can bring this back to Arcie's in 175 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 2: a Paradise you were in not really a similar predicament. 176 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 2: I wouldn't call that you were in a predicament at all. 177 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 2: You were like, get the fuck out of here. Actually 178 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: this is like, that's how I felt because I come in, 179 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 2: you don't give me that rose though, way yeah right, okay, 180 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 2: I know it's some sort of it's very similar. It's similar. 181 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 2: I'm leading somewhere. Okay, so when I come in and 182 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 2: Bachelor of Paradise three, I don't get a rose that 183 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 2: first rose ceremony, and because you chose to give your 184 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 2: rose to Kayla, it's okay, we don't have to talk 185 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 2: about that. What happens is it was kind of a 186 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 2: produced moment in which I was allowed to go down 187 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 2: there and be like, hey, I uh, I really like, 188 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 2: I'm not leaving. I'm not leaving. Basically it is exactly 189 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 2: an it, and I was like, can you guys please 190 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 2: like forgive me for being a hooligan. Well also like 191 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 2: they had no options for me. They had like literally 192 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: one single guy and that was what's the same from Canada, 193 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 2: Daniel Daniel. Yeah, And then everybody was like, yeah, sure, 194 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 2: that's fine. So basically Bette and I were being hypocrites 195 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 2: yesterday because we're always like, oh, we don't want to 196 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 2: see like produced moves, we don't want to see production 197 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 2: and you know, fingerprints. But then when justin and Susie 198 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 2: both get eliminated within and Susie's only on one episode. 199 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 2: Susie Evans, the winner of Clayton season only gets one 200 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 2: episode fan favorite. We were like, uh, we would like 201 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 2: some production here. Can she please stay? How can we 202 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 2: get her to stay? I thought she was saying, oh, 203 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I didn't clarify this too. She she said, 204 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 2: I can't accept. 205 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 3: This, so she leaves, and she left. Dude. That's when, yeah, 206 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 3: producers to be like, yo, you're going to accept it. Relax, 207 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 3: you're staying. Sus I'm thinking that they did it. She 208 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 3: seemed shocked when he offered her that rose. I think 209 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 3: she wasn't prepared and that was just herse She wasn't prepared. 210 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 3: But I bet no producer that now gonna think that 211 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 3: she Yeah, she would be, she'd say no, especially after 212 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 3: Justin said, hey, I'm going to leave. Why would she 213 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 3: leave too? Justin's gone. 214 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 2: Well, the thing is, Justin didn't at the podium say 215 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 2: that he was going to leave. It was when she 216 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 2: rejected the rose that he said I'm going to leave. 217 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 2: Because he had a milk down with Jesse in the room. 218 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,559 Speaker 2: So you're saying that's his biggest flaw. 219 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 3: Well, this is it's kind of all stupid. Not the 220 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 3: people involved obviously understand that there's a lot of motions, 221 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 3: so they're going to make brass decisions. 222 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 2: The problem is Justin was like, I'm going to eliminate you, Lexi, 223 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 2: but I'm going to continue to stay here while giving 224 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 2: a rose to my exe. 225 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 3: I understand with one with one rose, with one rose 226 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 3: not given out Lexi, Justin and Susie all we're allowed 227 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 3: to go home? Yes, okay, so that seems a bit 228 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 3: It's like, we don't want producers involved unless it's like 229 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,959 Speaker 3: extenuating circumstances, and this feels like an extenuating circumstance. Not 230 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 3: all three of you guys can go home. We need, 231 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 3: you know, either Susie or Justin to stay one of. 232 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 2: You two one of the two of them for sure. Now, 233 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 2: how much do we want to see the two of 234 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 2: them interact more? Because their conversations in the episode were 235 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: the ones that we were so drawn into. Of course, 236 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 2: there's so much history they actually did, and Joe and 237 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 2: Kendall were there, and you and I loved watching Joe. 238 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 3: And Kendall there. Who didn't That's I mean, we watched 239 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 3: the show for very real moments like that, and it 240 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 3: doesn't get more real than that. Yeah, you know, the 241 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 3: idea that Justin Susie were back together in Paradise after 242 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 3: a lot of history together being best friends and then 243 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 3: dating and then breaking up and then, you know, because 244 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 3: as we both know, experiencing breakups, like when you break 245 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 3: up with somebody, you're not just breaking up with them, 246 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 3: but you're breaking up with everybody that you know, you 247 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 3: became friends with. It's it's an awkward situation. So the 248 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 3: idea of reuniting those two after so much history on 249 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 3: the beach is very compelling. But I understand why one 250 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 3: of them would have to go home. I think it 251 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,079 Speaker 3: was the healthiest thing for both of them. One of 252 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,319 Speaker 3: them goes home, and I think that one would have 253 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 3: been Justin. Yeah, so I'm shocked that Susie is gone. 254 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 2: Well, so, I mean, it's kind of funny. This podcast 255 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 2: isn't meant to recap for somebody who hasn't seen it. 256 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 2: But what's really interesting is I thought, oh, here comes 257 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 2: the production move because Jeremy went on a date with Susie, 258 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 2: but he ended up giving his rose to Bailey a 259 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 2: day later. Bailey says yes to a date with Andrew Spencer, 260 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 2: and you love Andrew Andrew and now when he when 261 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 2: she does this, Jeremy calls. He calls Susie in the 262 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: interview room and says, hey, I made a mistake. I 263 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 2: want you to come back. And I was like, oh, 264 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 2: this is the way in, this is the way to 265 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 2: get Susie back, in to which she said, I'm at 266 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 2: the airport. I don't I don't think it's good for 267 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 2: me to come back. 268 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 3: Well, I understand why Susie wouldn't come back. Yeah, why 269 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 3: can't Andrew be the bachelor? 270 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 2: He could be? Put it out there, yeah, and this 271 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 2: so wonderful. 272 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 3: It's like Dale is fine. 273 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,959 Speaker 2: You know who would make you happy to watch every week? 274 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: Andrew with his jolly smile. It's adorable. 275 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 3: He's just so endearing, so sweet. Yeah, why can't Andrew 276 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 3: be the bachelor? 277 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 2: You keep putting it out there. I think Dale doesn't 278 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 2: seem like an option at all. All Dale has to me, 279 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 2: it's a really pretty face. And he still to me 280 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 2: comes across as like am I wrong? And say, I 281 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: don't think he's a villain, but I think he's regarded 282 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 2: as a bachelor villain. Yeah right, I mean I don't 283 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 2: think he's a villain this person. I just think that 284 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 2: he's not regarded as like somebody that like people would 285 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: necessarily like. 286 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 3: I think he's just very straight laced, which is not 287 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 3: a batchel lace. 288 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: No, I think I think about him. 289 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 3: I've been watching I'm just seeing like. 290 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 2: No, Jared, I'm just thinking about his history with Claire, 291 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 2: Like I just feel like. 292 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's like what is he he's a model 293 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 3: now model. 294 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 2: I don't know what he does. 295 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 3: I see him sometimes I'll like be perusing Amazon for 296 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 3: like sports, and I'm like, is that Dale modeling this 297 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 3: shirt on Amazon? 298 00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 2: Right now? It's not me having a It's just like 299 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 2: I felt that Claire was played, I guess, And I'm 300 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 2: always going to be a defender of Claire. Yeah, because 301 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 2: he proposed her, right, Jared, they were together and they 302 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 2: were talking bait. 303 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 3: No, I remember that. But they didn't leave boyfriend girlfriend, 304 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 3: they left engage. H Yeah, there's no shot Dale knew. 305 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 3: There's no shot that Dale proposed that moment thinking like, oh, 306 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 3: this is my wife. Okay, so that doesn't Claire is 307 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 3: the best, you know what I mean? So I agree. 308 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 3: I'm team Claire on that one, because it's like, bro, 309 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 3: you knew, like there's no shot, no shot. Sorry, I 310 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 3: don't believe you. 311 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 2: So that's why I feel like Dale couldn't be Bachelor 312 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 2: because there's just too much suspicion about there, you know, 313 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 2: just too much suspicion around him. 314 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 3: For me, well, it's for honestly, it's also whoever's gonna 315 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 3: make the best TV? I mean, at the end of 316 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 3: the day, of course, you want this to work. We 317 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 3: all want this to work. But like you know, the 318 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 3: most important thing is an entertaining product for the show, 319 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 3: for your guy, for you guys, for everybody. 320 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 2: So are we saying in this conversation that sometimes we 321 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: feel like production does need to make moves to make 322 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 2: great TV? 323 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 3: Of course, I mean, who's naive enough to think that, 324 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 3: like there'd be very little drama because it's one thing. 325 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 3: Here's the thing, and it's it's natural. It's very natural 326 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 3: for human beings when faced with conflict, to try to 327 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 3: avoid it, just avoid it. Yeah, exactly, like we would 328 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 3: walk away from scenarios if we face with that right now. 329 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 3: But it's like, so if what we want to see 330 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 3: just people walk away from each other and then like 331 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 3: cooler heads prevail later on. I mean that doesn't sound 332 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 3: very entertaining or do you want them? It's not like 333 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 3: producers like tell people to say, but it's like, if 334 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 3: you're forced to face that conflict, that is compelling stuff. Yeah, 335 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 3: and if you're not forced to face it, then I mean, 336 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 3: what do we watching. 337 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 2: The way that I always describe Bachelor, especially Bachelor in Paradise, 338 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 2: is that it's very much hunger games. Ask like you 339 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: are you have your free will in the arena, but 340 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: like there are people on the outside of the arena like. 341 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're sending jaguars exactly, sending. 342 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 2: Things in Yeah, okay, well you know what, You're gonna 343 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 2: be so jealous of that.

They had this big ad integration for 345 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 2: I know what you did last summer? 346 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 3: I saw that do it and jessin Palmer do something together. 347 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 2: Oh no, this is like was like integrated into Paradise. 348 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 3: Oh that's cool. 349 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, like in the mirror. And then like 350 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,239 Speaker 2: he went up to Welles and he was like, what 351 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 2: did I do last summer? And then like he was 352 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 2: like we weren't here. 353 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 3: Did somebody say, what are you waiting? 354 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 2: For No, I have to watch the original again before. 355 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 2: I haven't. I've only seen it once and it was 356 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: your nineties Ryan Philippi face yeah, great face, great face, 357 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 2: great face, great face, and great face. 358 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 3: Philipp is the man I know he did last summer 359 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 3: cruel intentions. I wanted to name one of our sons Sebastian, 360 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 3: I know. 361 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 2: And I hate the name of Sebastian. 362 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 3: Love the name Sebastian. 363 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 2: You only love it the because of his role. 364 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,159 Speaker 3: Why do you love Dawson? No, I love the. 365 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 2: Sound of Dawson. 366 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 3: I love the sound of Sebastian. 367 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 2: Yeah you do. I know only the sound of Sebastian. 368 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 2: I think of the crab. That's like, you wouldn't let 369 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 2: me name it. Well you didn't. You thought Dominic the donkey, 370 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 2: and I think a Sebash and the crab. Okay, So 371 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 2: did you hear about the money being involved. Yeah, we 372 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 2: don't really know the money thing yet. There was teas 373 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 2: at the end of episode one, but it hasn't been 374 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: directly brought up again yet. So my thoughts is that 375 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 2: it won't be brought up again until the end when 376 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 2: it's time, you know, how like the week where it's 377 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 2: like you either break up or you get engaged. I 378 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 2: think now it's going to be you either break up, 379 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,959 Speaker 2: get engaged, or get half a million dollars. And we 380 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 2: were joking and this is maybe like forget half million 381 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 2: dollars if you break up. Yeah, I think that you 382 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 2: have to. Yeah, I think you money. That's just with 383 00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 2: the speculation, Jared. It's the speculation. 384 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 3: Use money every day and then you leave and then 385 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 3: you get to the person like, hey, let's go out 386 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 3: to a really nice dinner, dude. 387 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 2: That's what I said. That's why this isn't even gonna 388 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 2: make any sense. Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. So 389 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 2: maybe it won't turn out to be that way. 390 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I just I don't like. My gut 391 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 3: reaction is I don't like the introduction of any type 392 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 3: of financial prize in this show. 393 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 2: It could be a big tease. There's so many false cheeses. 394 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 2: There was like in my season of Bachelor, there was 395 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: a pregnancy test that was in the cheezer that never 396 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 2: got address. 397 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's different than alluding to some sort of 398 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 3: cash prize at the end of this. Yeah, it would 399 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 3: be weird if they introduce that and never do anything 400 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 3: with it. I'd be it would be weird. So I'm 401 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 3: assuming money plays a role at some point. Maybe it 402 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 3: has something to do with the Goldens, not the we 403 00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 3: that could be, not the younger cast, but that would 404 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 3: make more Yeah, give them the money. Yeah that kind 405 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 3: of I like that. Give them the money. 406 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 2: Hmm. All right, they passed. 407 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 3: Down to the grand kids. 408 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 2: Okay, sounds good. All right, well let's get into Bachelor 409 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 2: Nation headlines. Sam McKinley and Allie Joe, who we both 410 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 2: have seen already get eliminated from Bachelor in Paradise this season, 411 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 2: are sparking romance rumors. During the time on the show, 412 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 2: Sam went on a date with Jess we know it 413 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 2: didn't work out, and Ali was like kind of talking 414 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 2: to dyl and Jonathan and both Sam and Ali both 415 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 2: went home. But this week Sam posted a story where 416 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 2: you can see a woman's hand holding up a drink 417 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 2: and showing off her bright red manicure. That manicure matches 418 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 2: Allie Joe's and her instagram's story, in which she captioned 419 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 2: keeping the main thing the main thing, which Sam is 420 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 2: famous for saying on gen season, and to add fuel 421 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 2: to these soft launch rumors before going on Bachelor in Paradise. 422 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 2: Sam told Joe and Serena on Happy Hour the podcast 423 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 2: that he wanted to see Ali Joe there, I would say, 424 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 2: this is a thing. 425 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 3: You know what all I can think about while you're 426 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 3: reading the entire story, it's I I gotta get off 427 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 3: social media. I got I gotta stay. I gotta spend 428 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 3: more less time on this thing. Like I can't what 429 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 3: are we even talking about? What is this? 430 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 2: This makes perfect sense to me. 431 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 3: Great, And obviously I'm coming on it from a different, 432 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 3: whole different angle, and you are right. I am wrong. 433 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 3: I am on the almost famous podcast, like. 434 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 2: I think this is a this is a couple in 435 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: the making. 436 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, great, cool. Yeah, But it was just like one 437 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 3: of those things like I was reading it or you 438 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 3: were reading it. I was listening, and like you see 439 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 3: a hand and then there's a real thing and then 440 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 3: keep the main thing. 441 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 2: We're doing online. 442 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 3: I was like, what are we doing? What? What not? 443 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 3: What are we doing? What am I doing? What am 444 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 3: I doing? Anyway? Congratulations to the new company. 445 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 2: Yes, get off social media and start watching more TV 446 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 2: shows with me, please? All right, So Alex Cooper's new 447 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 2: show Love Overboard has announced its host. We were speculating 448 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 2: this last week because we saw Gabby Windley's whereabouts on 449 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 2: social media and it was announced this week that she 450 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 2: will be the host of Hulu's new dating show, produced 451 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 2: by Alex Cooper's Unwell Productions. Love over Board is going 452 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 2: to debut on Hulu in twenty twenty six and Disney 453 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,919 Speaker 2: Plus internationally. We have some friends working on the show 454 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 2: as part of this family, and it makes sense to 455 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 2: us as to why Gabby might have been picked to 456 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 2: be the host of this show because one the people 457 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 2: that we know producing this show have ties to Gabby 458 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 2: because aka, she was the Bachelorette and then also her 459 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 2: season on The Traders definitely like gave her a burst, Yeah, 460 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,199 Speaker 2: big boost, big boost. And she's good with gameplay. We 461 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 2: know that, and so if this dating show has anything 462 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 2: to do with well love and gameplay, she is a 463 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 2: good choice. In the show, we're gonna see singles chase 464 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 2: a possible love partner while sailing aboard a luxury yacht. 465 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 2: The show synopsis says this, As the journey unfolds, romance ignites, 466 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 2: alliance's form and hearts are shattered. In the end, only 467 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 2: one couple will reign supreme. Who will rise to the 468 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 2: top and he'll be left stranded. I mean that makes sense. 469 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 2: It makes total sense for Gabby to be hosting it. Yeah, 470 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 2: combination of love and traders. 471 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 3: Obviously, I just go back to what is close to 472 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 3: us and it just, yeah, it makes me. I hope 473 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 3: I'm in the minority with this Paradise season. Granted I 474 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 3: haven't watched a lot of it, but I hope that 475 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 3: people are liking it a lot more. 476 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 2: What does this have to do with anything, because. 477 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 3: It just feels like, here we go another dating show, 478 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 3: Gabby's the host. It's by Alex Cooper, like streaming on Hulu. Like, 479 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 3: you know, obviously there's only so much attention span for 480 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 3: people out there, so it's like if there is a 481 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 3: big supply within this dating reality show market, it's like, 482 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 3: oh man, they're adding another show and it asks Gabby 483 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 3: as the lead, and like we know certain people producing it, 484 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 3: and like obviously we're going to support it because we 485 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: know the people that are working on it, which is wonderful. 486 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 3: But it's like, you know, I just hope that Paradise 487 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 3: is keeping up. So anyway, that's my thoughts, because this 488 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 3: show is going to crush it. I mean it's Alex 489 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 3: Cooper just like anything this woman touches is killing it. 490 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 3: Gabby's just huge right now, we know some of the 491 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 3: people working on it, and there's extremely talented a dating 492 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 3: show on a boat, and then also what Bachelors are. 493 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 3: But what Bachelor had going or for so long and 494 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 3: still does is the engagement. Yeah, like they have the 495 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 3: rights own. I think they're the only show that it 496 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 3: can end in engagement, really, I think so. I think 497 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 3: that's why no other show ends in an engagement. Wow, 498 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 3: So I think Bachelor is the only one that can 499 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 3: do that, which really separates it from other dating shows. 500 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 3: Having said that, because there's so many engagements that just 501 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 3: end literally months after the show, the engagement doesn't have 502 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 3: the weight that I used to. So it's kind of like, 503 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 3: is there a difference between people leaving together on a 504 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 3: different show or being engaged on Paradise? I don't really see. 505 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 2: It, especially since so many married couples from Paradise did 506 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 2: not get engaged on the show. 507 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 3: Uh, who else in Paradise you meet? 508 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 2: You meet Adam Raven, Kevin and Astrod. 509 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 3: Adam Raven didn't get No, wasn't it like on the 510 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 3: post show the after show.

So, Easton, is there anything you can 642 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 2: add from your episode that we wouldn't know from all 643 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 2: the headlines? 644 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 4: The two things that stuck out to me most. It's 645 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,719 Speaker 4: such a beautiful story, but I'm trying to get through 646 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 4: that crying. I got really emotional of them there sayings. 647 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 4: But we asked, becha, like what did Haley say when 648 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 4: she popped the question, and she said that. Haley got 649 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 4: down one knee and said, I will always protect you 650 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 4: and I will always keep you safe. And just thinking 651 00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 4: about everything that Beca's been through, with her being who 652 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 4: she is and coming from the world she's from, hearing 653 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 4: those words were really powerful to me. And then the 654 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 4: other thing I really really appreciated was that they didn't 655 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 4: notice at the time, but Hailey proposed on a nude beach, 656 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 4: so they're surrounded by just swinging penises. Yeah, they got 657 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 4: when she dropped Awndy, which I just if you haven't 658 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 4: seen the photos on their Instagram, it's they're so lovely, 659 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 4: but like just out of frames's just like a bunch 660 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 4: of naked people. 661 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 2: That's hilarious. There's so much emotion in the engagement pictures. 662 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 3: I think there's something very poetic about Haley and Becca 663 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 3: getting engaged while being surrounded by swinging penises. You know, 664 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 3: it's almost the perfect scenario that does. 665 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 2: Make some sort of poetic sense. 666 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 4: Yes, it really is.

Right, that is. 671 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 4: Their deal's coming. And I keep saying, how funny will 672 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 4: it be if Haley says no, that's an option. 673 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 2: Well, we're so happy for them, and so is Becca's 674 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 2: best friend, Jojo Fletcher.

Surprised her with all of her best friends. 681 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,720 Speaker 2: Once they came back from Spain. All right, well, Jared, 682 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 2: now it's time for our headline. It's not that you guys, 683 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 2: it's not that headlining. There was one headline. I was like, oh, 684 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:50,360 Speaker 2: that's cool. So we are producing an indie TV pilot. 685 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 2: It's called Two Romantics, so it's like a rom com. 686 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 2: I'm gonna let Jared talk about it because he is, 687 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 2: you know, his goal in life would be to be 688 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:03,839 Speaker 2: some of producer director, and this is like his first 689 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 2: step into that world. 690 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 3: So this production company called Madhouse Films reached out to 691 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,240 Speaker 3: Ashley and I and they were producing a TV pilot, 692 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 3: a short film directed by this girl, Italia light Rake, 693 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 3: who had done work with Ashley before, which is why 694 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 3: they reached out. And they were looking for executive producers 695 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 3: to help finance the film, and so they sent me 696 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 3: the script.
