1
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,720
Speaker 1: What is a Bachelor Happy Hour listeners? Before we begin,

2
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 1: I have to apologize for the state of my voice.

3
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: I am a bit under the weather, so I know

4
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 1: I sound a bit like a thirteen year old boy

5
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 1: going through puberty. But we're going to push through because

6
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: Clayton season is off to the races. It's already off

7
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: with so much drama, so I didn't want to miss

8
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: a week and sit it out because there's so much

9
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 1: that I have to cover. And again with me, I

10
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: have Miss Serena joining us. Yes, I mean, you can't

11
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: leave me hanging all alone this week, Becca, So I'm

12
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 1: so sorry you're sick, but I am so happy you're here.

13
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,919
Speaker 1: And last night's episode was packed with drama and memorable

14
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: moments to say the least. So I am really excited

15
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 1: that we have the wonderful Susie here on the podcast today,

16
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: the recipient of the first One on One Day, here

17
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 1: to chat all about it. I'm so excited Susie. As

18
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: we talked about last week, I'm already she's already one

19
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: of my favorites. I have high, high hopes for Susie.

20
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: I think she's going to go very far, and last

21
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: night did not disappoint So before we actually bring her

22
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 1: on and chat a little bit to get to know

23
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: her more, we have to talk about last night's episode.

24
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: Because of course there's always drama in the world of

25
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 1: the Bachelor, but it seems like for week one and

26
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: just moving into the mansion like seconds ago, there's already

27
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: so much trauma, especially around two women, so we just

28
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: have to get into it. I want to do something

29
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 1: fun on Happy Hour because Serna, you are always dressed

30
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 1: to the nines. You are always so put together. Like

31
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: I said, I need you to help style me. So

32
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, and I know how much our listeners love

33
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: to go through people's dresses and what they choose to wear,

34
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: and so each week, I really want to do your

35
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: highlight and low light stand out fashion moments if you will,

36
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: and I know you have some for me this week,

37
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: So let's just begin with that. Okay, I am so

38
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: ready to talk about the fashion little. I mean, there

39
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: were some really fun looks this episode. I think I

40
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: don't really have a lowlight this episode, but I will

41
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: say we are seeing a lot of jean shorts and

42
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: body suits. I think on both dates that was kind

43
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: of the theme across the board, and I mean, do

44
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: not get me wrong, I love a good bodysuit jean

45
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: short combo, especially in the summer when it's hot out

46
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: and you're doing activity. But I think that because we

47
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: saw so much of that look, Gabby on the first

48
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: group date really stood out to me. She was wearing

49
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 1: a jump suit. It was all denim, spaghetti strap. I

50
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: think it had a boot cut at the bottom, and

51
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: I loved it. She has a really bold personality. We're

52
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: really seeing her humor come out this season, and I

53
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: can tell that she's dresses to match that. So I

54
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: loved that look from her. I thought she looked super cool,

55
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,959
Speaker 1: super chic. And then in terms of kind of more

56
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: of like a nighttime date, look, you know who I loved.

57
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: I loved this whole episode and I really hope we

58
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: see more of her. But this fashion look, you probably

59
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: had to keep an eye out for it, but I

60
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: thought she did a really fun job. Was Marlena, who

61
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: is the first female Olympian to be on the show.

62
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: She was wearing a hot pink dress. And if you

63
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: know me, you know I love my neutral tones. I

64
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: am never bold enough to go for color. But she

65
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: wore a beautiful hot pink dress. She had a chunky,

66
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: sparkly hoop in and I just thought it was a

67
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: really fun look, especially for a night group date, because

68
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: I feel like you can go a little more playful,

69
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: a little more fun with those opposed to the Rose ceremonies,

70
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: which are kind of more upscale and formal. So yeah,

71
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: those would kind of be my shout outs fashion wise

72
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: for this week. Morlena's color. Like that color of dress,

73
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: I would say, it's like a magenta, right, was so beautiful,

74
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: so bold, Like I'm kind of like you, I'm more

75
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: neutrals and less like yeah, but you'll still had some pinks.

76
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: I've seen you like rock pink. Well, if I have help,

77
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: like if I have a stylist for an event, shout

78
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: out Lisa rock some color. But usually, and that's actually

79
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: why I will say, like being on the show with

80
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: all the women and also being on Paradise with everyone

81
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: was so fun because usually, like I'll just go for

82
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: something simple that I know is comfortable. But when you

83
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 1: have other people that kind of know your body, know

84
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: your style, know what will look good on your shape,

85
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 1: to pull like the fun side out of you, it

86
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 1: helps so much. And that's what what was I would

87
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,359
Speaker 1: say kind of like a magical part of being on

88
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: the show with all these women is everyone kind of

89
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: share stuff. They share style, pointers, tips, dresses, you name it,

90
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: um and that was one of my most fun things

91
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: I remember, especially like first moving into the mansion, was

92
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: just seeing everyone's style and seeing how much they packed,

93
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 1: and you know, like I'm sure you remember getting ready

94
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: for those rows ceremonies where all of the gowns are

95
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,600
Speaker 1: hung up and all the jewelries laid out and all

96
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: the heels are set up and kind of like picking

97
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: what goes with what and seeing everyone's you know, pieces

98
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: come together each night. It was so much fun, and

99
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: so it's fun to see that come together once again

100
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: back at the mansion. I know, I really do love that.

101
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 1: I remember being on the show and having people like

102
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: run into each other's rooms being like, do you have

103
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: an earring? This is what I'm wearing tonight, and I

104
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: don't have a matching earring. And Rachel was my roommate.

105
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: She has such fantastic style, and she actually went on

106
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: the shopping date on our season, so I was definitely

107
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: sifting through those bags when she got back. Did she

108
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: come back with a ton of bags. M She came

109
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: back with so many shopping bags, Oh my gosh, and

110
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: they were all filled with clothes that she actually ended

111
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: up wearing a lot of the clothes on the season.

112
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: Like I remember watching it back on some of her

113
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: dates and being like, oh, I remember that's the free

114
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,679
Speaker 1: People shirt that she got on her shopping date with Matt.

115
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 1: Fun fact, Serena, I actually got this shopping date on

116
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,039
Speaker 1: my season of The Bachelor with Ari and it was

117
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: the very first date, very first one on one, and

118
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: I remember after I was with Rachel's Zoe, and thank goodness,

119
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 1: she helped style me for that night. But they sent

120
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: me home with they literally loaded me up to my

121
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: shoulders full of bags and they're like, okay, walk back

122
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: in the mansion. I was like, no, these girls are

123
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: gonna kill me. I did not want to go back

124
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: in there. I did not want to show them everything.

125
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,359
Speaker 1: But it was fun because a lot of it, Like

126
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 1: there was just so much that I was able to

127
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: share and we were it. Actually, I would say got

128
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: me through the season because had I not had that,

129
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: Like I definitely did not pack enough. Who packed the

130
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: most on your season? I'm trying to remember I don't

131
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 1: remember who packed the most, but I do remember Anna

132
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: coming in with like a look book of all of

133
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: her outfits, Like she had like packed her outfits like

134
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: in ziploc bags and then had like look books of

135
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: like what each outfit was. So I mean I had

136
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 1: thrown a bunch of clothes in a bag. I was

137
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: like form aware daytimeware, and were moving on and then

138
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: just piece the other one I got there, but that

139
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: was a whole other level of prepared dang, oh my gosh,

140
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 1: kudos to Anna for I mean, I would not have

141
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: had the patience for that. Okay, as much as we

142
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: love to talk about fashion, thank you for that. Serena.

143
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: Let's get into the entire episode, like the nitty gritty,

144
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: because the very first group date already started off with

145
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: some drama, which I want to get into everything with

146
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: Cassidy because she seems like, I mean, if we're going

147
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: off of what we were seeing so far, she seems

148
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: like she's being set up to be kind of like

149
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: this villain rubbing the woman the wrong way. There's already

150
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: tension on this group date because of Cassidy. And it's

151
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:46,239
Speaker 1: interesting because Cassidy quite frankly like didn't do anything wrong

152
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: per se. She was just very confident in her pursuits

153
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: of Clayton. And I want to ask you, like, where

154
00:07:55,560 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: is the line where somebody can be confident but then

155
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: like not too confident, too cocky, where it starts to

156
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: rub women the wrong way? Like did you have anyone

157
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: on your season that kind of reminded you of how

158
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: Cassidy is acting. I'm trying to remember. I don't think

159
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: we had someone that was like constantly pulling him aside

160
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: like we saw Cassidy do on the group date this week.

161
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: But I think it is a fine line because I mean,

162
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: she is saying, you know, I'm confident, I'm gonna go over,

163
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: I'm going to pursue him aggressively, and I'm going to

164
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: shoot my shot as much and as hard as possible.

165
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: And it worked out because she did get that group

166
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 1: date rose, so she got a lot of time with

167
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: Clayton that day that a lot of the girls didn't. However,

168
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: what And I mean, I think everyone has a different

169
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: approach on group dates in different respect of what's appropriate

170
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: or not. But I would say, if you're doing it

171
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,679
Speaker 1: to a point of making the other women on the

172
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 1: group date feel almost disrespected and completely not considered. I mean,

173
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 1: we saw Gabby on her knees grinding away trying to

174
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: build that house, and Cassidy was making up with Clayton

175
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: by the pool. If I'm Gabby, I'm like, this is

176
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: a two man job and I need some backup. So

177
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: I think she definitely took things a little far, and

178
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: I can sympathize with why the girls were not happy

179
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 1: with it. Yeah, and I think it's also up to

180
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: Clayton because I understand is the lead. There's so much

181
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: that he's not privy too, that he's not going to see.

182
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: But also to be the lead, you still have to

183
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: be mindful in certain situations on those group dates of

184
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: however one is getting along, because I think for me personally,

185
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: it's very telling if there's one person who's standing out

186
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: that doesn't really care about the other people on the date,

187
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,679
Speaker 1: that is just making it solely about them. Like confidence

188
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: is one thing, but then when you start to put

189
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: other people down and not care about or have any

190
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,439
Speaker 1: regard for anyone else's feelings, that's where it would definitely

191
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: rub me the wrong way. And you know, I'm sure

192
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 1: he's busy, he's talking to other women. Too, he's in interviews,

193
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: he's talking with Hilary Duff. There's so much that goes

194
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 1: into what he has to do on each date. But

195
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: I think what the interesting part was is not necessarily

196
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: like her approach with Clayton, you know, face to face

197
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 1: with him, it's interesting to see how she handles the

198
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: women and her conversation with the group of women like

199
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: there was I think it was twice throughout the episode

200
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: where she's She's like, I feel very confident in my

201
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: pursuit of him. I think he is very intimidated in

202
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 1: a hot way by me, which like when you're saying

203
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: that to a group of women who are all trying

204
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: to date this man and it is still the first

205
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: week and he's getting to know everyone. That is where

206
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 1: I could see the women being very turned off by

207
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: that and very like being rubbed the wrong way. And

208
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: so it was her interaction with the women that I

209
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: started to see kind of like, oh, okay, I see

210
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 1: what you're doing here. I think I think Hillary Duff.

211
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 1: Hillary Duff in an interview said something and I was like,

212
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: she has said it best. She said, Cassidy has her

213
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: eyes on the prize and that's not going to make

214
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: her any friends, but I don't think she cares, And

215
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: I really think that's exactly what's going on here. Cassidy

216
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: is the girl this season that you know, quote unquote

217
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: isn't here to make friends. Or maybe she is, but

218
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: she's just not really you know, going about it in

219
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 1: a great way because she just doesn't seem to know

220
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: where the line is, or maybe she just doesn't care

221
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 1: if there's a line at all. Yeah, I wished, I mean,

222
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: to really make this episode gold, we should have had

223
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: a little cartoon Lizzie McGuire pop up in the corner

224
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: to give some context to everything that was going on.

225
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: That would have made this so perfect. I would have

226
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 1: loved that. Yes, so Cassidy's interested because not only do

227
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: we see I mean, her boldness, I will take up

228
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 1: her that that group date rose, But then she goes

229
00:11:55,520 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: and she's kind of like coaching, mentoring Cheney. It was

230
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: that very I almost it was odd, like I don't

231
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: know what other word to use to describe I've never

232
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 1: seen anything like that, where she was almost like, this

233
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: is these are the rules of the game, this is

234
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: how it goes, this is like it was. It was

235
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 1: spoken about in a very like strategic competition sense of like,

236
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. I was just very thrown off by

237
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: the whole conversation they had. It was like she was

238
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 1: gearing up to get a job like teaching, coaching. Chaney like,

239
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: what you have to do to now this interview to

240
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 1: get this role, and at the end of the day, like,

241
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: look like you can have a playbook. We've seen people

242
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 1: in the past come in to every season with some

243
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: sort of idea of how it should go and like

244
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: what works and doesn't work with past seasons. But if

245
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: you know that, then you should know that Cassidy, what

246
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 1: you're doing isn't gonna work. And it just gets bizarre

247
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 1: and I feel like Cheney now it's like mister Miagi

248
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: and the Karate Kid, and Shane's like trying to be

249
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: Cassidy and she's like even Sane on her the next

250
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 1: group date, like oh, well Cassidy would do this or

251
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 1: Cassidy would do that. But it's like, yeah, you got

252
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: Cassidy say you are your own human being. Yeah. It

253
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 1: was definitely interesting watching Cassidy on the group date and

254
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: then Chaney almost being like, well, Cassie would do this,

255
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: or Cassidy told me to do this, and I don't

256
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: understand because Cassie's ever been on the show before either,

257
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 1: And I think, you know, do you like I just

258
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: wanted to hear one of them being like, I really

259
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: like Clayton, because all the conversation was around like getting

260
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: to the next week, getting to the end, and like

261
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: nothing was surrounding their feelings for Clayton. But I mean,

262
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: I think Cheney, I don't know if Cassie would have

263
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: or wouldn't have done this, but Shaney's behavior on the

264
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: group date when she threw Elizabeth under the bus, I

265
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: mean that kind of came out of nowhere. And I

266
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: honestly think that whoever stole Clayton first was going to

267
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 1: feel the wrath of Shaney that night, because it really

268
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 1: felt like the only reason she was so upset was

269
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: because she wanted to steal Clayton first and Elizabeth did

270
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 1: it instead. Yes, Yeah, Cheney, I feel like she still

271
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: has some figuring out to do. I feel like she's

272
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: looking for this validation from not only Clayton, but Elizabeth

273
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: and all the women in the house to like love

274
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: and accept her, and it's I mean, it doesn't seem

275
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: like it's going about the best way it'll be interesting

276
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: to see. I mean, we see it being left on

277
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: a cliffhanger for the two we continue next week. We

278
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: didn't even get into the Rows ceremony. I want to

279
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: address one major thing before we get into the one

280
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: on one date. But in terms of like the group

281
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: aspect and you know, thirty women living together, a lot

282
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: of Elizabeth's personal and mental health issues in her adh

283
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: she were brought up a lot which I don't think

284
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: was anyone else's place to bring up besides Elizabeth, if

285
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 1: and when she was indeed ready too. Um. And that's

286
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 1: something that in Cassidy's part, I wish she would have

287
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 1: just kept to herself, kept between her and Elizabeth. Um.

288
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: It was. It was really tough to watch because I

289
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,119
Speaker 1: feel like that word and that phrase and what Elizabeth

290
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: is dealing with in her daily life is you know,

291
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: being thrown around in the wind like glitter. And it

292
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: wasn't the time nor the place, And so it'll be

293
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: interesting to see how it is handled next week. I

294
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: hope Cassidy can just suck it up and apologize and

295
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: realize where she went wrong. But Jane'll tell, Oh, Shane,

296
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 1: what did I say? Cassidy Cassidy. Yes, sorry, but we did.

297
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: I'm just going to say, there's a lot of blondes. Okay, No,

298
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: we've got We're leaving on a cliffhanger with Cassidy because

299
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: she has been outed for the Friends with Benefits back home,

300
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 1: so we're finding out what Clayton's about to do with that.

301
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: And then I completely agree with what you just said

302
00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: regarding Shane, and I just want to give a shout

303
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: out to Elizabeth. She didn't really stand out to me

304
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: that much in episode one. I don't know if we

305
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: got to see much of her, but the way she

306
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: handled the situation where you know, it was being very

307
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: openly discussed her mental health and what she had confided

308
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: into Chaney about, I thought she handled it with class,

309
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: with maturity. She was calm, she was confident, she stood

310
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: her ground, but was still you know, she wasn't disrespectful

311
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: in any way. And I mean I was extremely impressed

312
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: with her this episode. Yeah, I agree. I agree. Somebody

313
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 1: else that I was very impressed with is our guest today,

314
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: Miss Susie. She seemed to hit it off so well

315
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 1: with Clayton. I think it was the best way to

316
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: start the very first one on one of the season.

317
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: We can get into everything, but I would rather just

318
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 1: bring her on to bring to get into it with

319
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: her because she was obviously there so much more detail

320
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 1: that she can give us. So with that, Serena, I

321
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: think we should just bring miss Susie on. I think

322
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: we should. I am so excited to talk to her today. Well, Susie,

323
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 1: welcome to Bachelor Happy Hour. Serena and I are so

324
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 1: excited to have you because I don't know if you

325
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: listened to us last week, but you were one of

326
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,199
Speaker 1: our favorites from night one. I already said it. I'm like,

327
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: Susie's gonna go far. She's gonna be our girl. So well,

328
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: I was like, she's a wedding videographer, she's wearing white.

329
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 1: This is perfect. We're manifesting all the good things now.

330
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, thank welcome. Yeah, how have you been good?

331
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,239
Speaker 1: I've been really good. I'm happy to be home and

332
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: back in Virginia right now, and yeah, I mean I'm good.

333
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: I listened to the podcast last week and I was

334
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: like so honored. My best friend send it to me

335
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: and she was like, hey, you got to give this

336
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: a listen, and I was like in her car driving

337
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 1: down the road and I was like, Oh my gosh,

338
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,919
Speaker 1: this is so crazy. I want to know, how the

339
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: hell did you get on the show? Did you apply

340
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: for yourself? Did somebody nominate you? Yeah, So four years

341
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: ago I moved home from Japan. I was very single,

342
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 1: I almost I mean I hadn't dated seriously in like

343
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 1: two years. The whole time I was out there, and

344
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: my best friends watched the show pretty religiously, and they

345
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 1: convinced me to let them nominate me, and they spent

346
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: a package in the mail and it didn't get there

347
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: in time for casting. I guess it was already complete.

348
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: But then the next year they called me and they

349
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 1: were like, we're actually casting and we think you would

350
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: be a great fit. Maybe let's see. And then I

351
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: was in a relationship so didn't work out that year.

352
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 1: And then this past year, my friend Veronica nominated me,

353
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: and I actually nominated her too, and it just happened

354
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 1: to be good time. So yeah, I feel like it's

355
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: kind of like been in like the this like realm

356
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: of my world where I started watching. After I got

357
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: the call, I was like, oh my gosh, this is crazy.

358
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,679
Speaker 1: They actually called me. And so then I've kind of

359
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 1: like had my interest peaked for a while now, but

360
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: now I'm just a fan of the show, and so

361
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: it's crazy to like be on this show and even

362
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,880
Speaker 1: be talking to you guys. I'm like, I'm like kind

363
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: of freaking out. I'm a little bit in nepious, but

364
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 1: we're fan girling over you too. So what what season

365
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 1: was it that you like? Originally was it Colton season?

366
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: Then it would be Colton season though. That's like the

367
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: male submission that went out was for Colton season. Okay,

368
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: oh gosha, Yeah, look you got you got your blondie

369
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 1: NFL player, see name? We got pretty class. I worked

370
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: out for the best. It definitely did, Suzy. I really

371
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: want to know so much more about you, because we've

372
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 1: loved what we've seen so far, and you have shown

373
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: so many sides of your personality, and we know a

374
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: little bit about your background having been in Japan, but

375
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 1: can you just tell us more about that. I mean,

376
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 1: you came up and I was like, oh, pageant girl,

377
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: and then you were doing jiu jitsu like five seconds later,

378
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: So I would love more trades. Yeah, So I moved

379
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: to Japan when I was twenty two, twenty eight, right,

380
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: now and I lived there until I was twenty five,

381
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: and I started doing Brazilian jiu jitsu while I was

382
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,719
Speaker 1: in Japan, and yeah, it's it was the most incredible

383
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: thing I've ever done for myself. I think leaving the

384
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: country by yourself and starting kind of like a new life,

385
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: a new career. I worked at Tokyo Disneyland, and I

386
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 1: always say like that was a really special thing to do,

387
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 1: but being in Japan was like the true gem of

388
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: that job because I got to experience something like totally

389
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 1: outside my comfort zone. I learned a lot about myself.

390
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: I learned about things that I really needed to kind

391
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 1: of work on and like how to become a better person.

392
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: I think that their society puts a huge emphasis on

393
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:48,360
Speaker 1: like hard work and like grit and kind of determination,

394
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: and I'm very much a free spirit, So living in

395
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 1: that culture, I was like, wow, like I'm expected to

396
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: be like top tier at everything that I do, and

397
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: anything less than that will be like critiqued and I

398
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: will be like held very accountable for all of my actions,

399
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 1: whether it's being one minute late to work or anything

400
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: at all. So I think like having a really like

401
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: kind of strict culture for several years kind of like

402
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,160
Speaker 1: allowed me to grow into a stronger version of myself.

403
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 1: So yeah, Japan was great. And then obviously learning jiu JITs,

404
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 1: starting jiu JITs to and having like a team out

405
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: there that like people that cared for me, that were

406
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 1: like locals, and when I left Japan, like saying about

407
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 1: them was probably the hardest part about leaving. They were

408
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: just they threw me this huge going away party we

409
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,239
Speaker 1: went to like a sumo wrestling house and we like

410
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: shared foods, giant pots. It was like it was like

411
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: the coolest thing ever. And yeah, it changed my life.

412
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 1: It changed my perspective on kind of like work ethic

413
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 1: and just like how to be a better person. I think, wow,

414
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 1: that's incredible. I have to say, I feel like you

415
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: are one of the very first women to come through

416
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: the franchise that has probably ever probably not ever done

417
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,919
Speaker 1: jiu jitsu, but who has talked about it and shown it.

418
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 1: I have to give you props. One of my good friends,

419
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,679
Speaker 1: Dustin back home, he's been doing jiu jitsu for a

420
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,199
Speaker 1: couple of years now, and I know how difficult it is,

421
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: how much dedication it takes. So props to you. That's incredible.

422
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: I feel like you are a jack of all trades.

423
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: I mean, as Serena had touched on, you did the pageants,

424
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 1: I mean, you worked at Tokyo Disneyland or Disney World

425
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 1: was it. It's Tokyo Disneyland and Disney Sea out there, okay,

426
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: and you just I mean the background everything is so

427
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,160
Speaker 1: interesting and so I'm so glad that we got such

428
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: a well rounded, cultured woman on the show. It's just

429
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 1: very exciting and fresh for viewers. I want to get

430
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: into night one because we saw your hometown package, we

431
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: saw you step out of the limo, and you had

432
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 1: quite a good entrance. We really loved that entrance. I

433
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 1: have to say. Serena and I talked a little bit

434
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: about it last week on the podcast. So two things,

435
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,440
Speaker 1: How did you pick up your gorgeous dress? How did

436
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: you know that that was the one? And how did

437
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 1: you come up with the fun intro where You're like, Nope,

438
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:11,919
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna hug you, but I'm gonna give you

439
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: the firm handshake. Honestly, when you did the first you

440
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 1: started that, I was like, Susie, no, Like, what are

441
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,680
Speaker 1: you doing with this firm handshake? Like I was like no,

442
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 1: I like you, like, we're off to a bad start,

443
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: but you turned it around and he thought it was

444
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 1: super cute things. I'm glad I was able to turn

445
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: it around because watching it back, I was like his

446
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: sinking in my chair and I was like, oh my gosh,

447
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: like I hope I hope this play as well. I

448
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 1: mean it felt cringey when I did it, but I

449
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 1: think you know, I grew up with an older brother

450
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: and we were always pranking each other, and we actually

451
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: used to have those pens that you would like hand

452
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 1: to somebody and then it would shock them. And I

453
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: just thought the concept of like coming out of the

454
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: limo and doing something kind of silly, like kind of

455
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: like a little prank would it's kind of a brand

456
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 1: for me. It felt like, um, I felt like it

457
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 1: was silly but not too like extravagant or like out there. Um.

458
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 1: And yeah, I definitely am a hugger. So it was

459
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: really hard to to say that because he like held

460
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 1: his hands out for me as if he was gonna, like,

461
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 1: you know, like extend the arms. I should grab his hands,

462
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,439
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh no, no, no, like we're not

463
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 1: we're not doing that. And I was like Oh my gosh,

464
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 1: this is gonna feel so cringe to play back, but um,

465
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 1: it was. Yeah, it turned out okay, I guess, and

466
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: definitely a bold move. The white gown. The real reason

467
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 1: I chose it, it it was for comfort. It was probably

468
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 1: like my most comfortable gown after my own heart. Everyone

469
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 1: told me it was between that and this, like fully

470
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 1: beated red dressed, and everyone was like, it's the longest

471
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,679
Speaker 1: night of the entire season. You're gonna be miserable, and

472
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, We're going for the white. And

473
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: it was true, Like there's a couple of clips where

474
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 1: I'm probably inappropriately sitting on the couch with like my

475
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 1: feet underneath of me. But I was like, I was

476
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,120
Speaker 1: so comfortable. I felt like I was like chilling at home,

477
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 1: so like I ended up working out great. It was beautiful.

478
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 1: We loved it. That's smart. That's really smart. My dress

479
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,959
Speaker 1: was bedazzled, but like comfortable the first day. But it

480
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 1: is so long, Like the more comfortable you can go,

481
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 1: the better. But I can totally relate to you on

482
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: your entrance because I didn't do something similar, but I

483
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 1: did like a small like I came in with a

484
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: step stool made like a little joke about his height

485
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 1: because I was like, I want to do something because

486
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 1: I feel like I'll feel lost just going up there

487
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 1: and talking. But I was the same. I was like,

488
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to do anything big because then I'm

489
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: gonna get like really overwhelmed. But we loved your entrance,

490
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: we love your dress. Can you kind of just walk

491
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 1: us through night one? Like? How did that feel for you?

492
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,400
Speaker 1: Was there any like standout moments? What was that like? Yeah,

493
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: it was so fun To this day, like I look

494
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 1: back and I'm like, it was I still can't believe

495
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: I did it. Watching it back, I would get like

496
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 1: butterflies watching it when I would see things that kind

497
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 1: of like felt like nostalgic and it would bring me

498
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: back to that moment. The girls were so awesome, and

499
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 1: it does like tease it at the end of the

500
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: episode where it's like, oh, like everyone was so supportive,

501
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: and it really felt like that, like everyone was incredible.

502
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: The girls were so sweet. Everyone was like very accomplished

503
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: and obviously beautiful. So it's like intimidating being in there,

504
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: but at the same time, I was like, this is

505
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: like the most fun I've ever had. It feels like

506
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,120
Speaker 1: just like a really cool party and no one has

507
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 1: their phones, so you're all just getting to know each other,

508
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 1: like no one's distracted. It's like it's it was a

509
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 1: really fun first night, and yeah, it was nervous and

510
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,880
Speaker 1: kind of freaking out. But at the same time, there's

511
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: so much downtime in between, like when you actually get

512
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: to speak with Clayton or when you're doing an interview,

513
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:42,919
Speaker 1: that you're just like hanging out with a bunch of

514
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:48,399
Speaker 1: cool girls. Did it feel kind of magical? Because I

515
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 1: remember I had watched a few seasons before I left

516
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: for my time on The Bachelor, and then actually being

517
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 1: there to step out of the limo and walk through

518
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 1: the mansion doors and to see all of the iconic

519
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: things like the hot tub, the pol the different couches,

520
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: didn't feel magical, Like were you in this mindset of like,

521
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: holy crap, I'm actually here and it doesn't feel real. Yeah,

522
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,120
Speaker 1: it didn't. It did not feel real. I remember walking

523
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,880
Speaker 1: into the living room and I just was like, what

524
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,959
Speaker 1: is my life? Like, I'm in the Bachelor mansion. And

525
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: there were a few times where we were like laying

526
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 1: out back and we had a day off and we

527
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 1: were just like hanging by the pool, and I was like,

528
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: this is the most incredible thing I've ever done. It

529
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,880
Speaker 1: was just like so surreal and seeing like the mountains

530
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 1: in the background, like I've never seen anything so beautiful,

531
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: and like, yeah, living in those bunk beds, it was

532
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: so fun and like almost felt like silly. But then

533
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 1: you wake up and you look out this gorgeous like

534
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: mansion view and you're just like, how is this happening

535
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: to me? It felt surreal, It felt like a fairy tale.

536
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: So you were the first one on one date. However,

537
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 1: you were in the middle, so they read the group

538
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: date card and your name wasn't on it. How did

539
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,399
Speaker 1: you feel when you didn't hear your name on the

540
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: first date card because we know not everyone gets a

541
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: date that first week? And then how did you feel

542
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:13,959
Speaker 1: hearing your name on the one on one date car?

543
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 1: Because I can imagine those were two very different feelings.

544
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Yeah, so I was. I actually don't

545
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: know if I knew that people weren't going to get

546
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 1: a date that week. I okay, And I almost feel

547
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 1: bad because I feel like I was like telling people

548
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:33,200
Speaker 1: in the house. I was like, oh my gosh, I

549
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 1: don't worry. Like I was trying to be like the

550
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,879
Speaker 1: least dressed person in the room and just trying to

551
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: like enjoy and not be worried. But turns out like

552
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: nobody's safe ever. So I think I was a little

553
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: bit nervous when I didn't hear my name, just not

554
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: knowing like what was what to expect, Like I mean,

555
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 1: it was it was such a strange concept. And then

556
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: the second day when I heard my name on the

557
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 1: date card, I was so nervous, Like I'm afraid to

558
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: admit this, but there was a part of me that

559
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 1: was like almost wishing I had gotten a group date first,

560
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 1: because I was just so nervous that I was like,

561
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 1: there's no like easing into it, like I don't know

562
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: this man, and I have to go on a date

563
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: with him, like right off the bat. And I was

564
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 1: I remember, like physically shaking and I had no control.

565
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 1: I just literally was like shaking. And you know what,

566
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 1: I think that's a very normal feeling. I mean, Becca,

567
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 1: I don't know how you felt because you did get

568
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: the first one on them, but I know Brion Arciason

569
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: said something very similar to you, which was I'm going

570
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 1: on a full day date, Like this isn't drinks, Like

571
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 1: we're spending a whole day together doing activity and I

572
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: actually don't know him. Whereas you're right with the group

573
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: that you do get to ease in a little bit.

574
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: So when you spend the whole day, you have a

575
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: bit of a foundation, right, That's exactly it. Yeah, I

576
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: was like, I have to spend the full day, and

577
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 1: I was like, well, what if I get in get

578
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 1: in the car and there's chemistry, Like what if there's

579
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 1: no like what if he actually doesn't like me? Or

580
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: what if I don't like him? And so we have

581
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: to hang out for twelve hours? And I was like,

582
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 1: I was kind of freaked out. Obviously I was really great.

583
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: It was just like I was so nervous, but the

584
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 1: girls were actually so supportive, and I kind of expressed

585
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: that I was like I was intimidated that I would

586
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: like to be like my best self and not be

587
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: able to be goofy and like just like let go

588
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 1: and have fun. But it ended up that I was.

589
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 1: I was totally comfortable and it was like the best

590
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: thing to have the first date, Like I had a blast,

591
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 1: but it was nerve wracking for sure. Well, I mean

592
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: It's so interesting to see Clayton with different women, right,

593
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: and I know, especially like night one in this first

594
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 1: week is a lot because he's still getting to know everyone.

595
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: There's still so much to process. But it truly seemed

596
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: from a viewer standpoint that, like the second it was

597
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: just the two of you on your date away, and

598
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 1: like seeing him in his interviews about you, he really

599
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: felt a strong connection, like he really felt comfortable. He said,

600
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: how fun and adventurous you were in you, I think

601
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 1: we're probably the best person to take on that very

602
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 1: first date because you made him kind of slow down

603
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: and be able to breathe easy and just relax. I'm

604
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: sure it was probably one of the first times since

605
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 1: he was announced as the lead, because he's go, go, go,

606
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: that he could finally just like really sit and breathe

607
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 1: and appreciate the day. Because you guys had a really

608
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: incredible date. I mean, what didn't you do. You were

609
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 1: in a helicopter, you went on a yacht, you got

610
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 1: to go in the hot time, you got to jump

611
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: in the water, and then you of course had this

612
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 1: very romantic date at the evening portion. But just the

613
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: initial chemistry and connection that you both had it was

614
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 1: very I think, very apparent for the viewers. So did

615
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: you feel like right away you could just be yourself,

616
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: be free in your own skin. How did that feel like?

617
00:31:56,600 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: What was that connection like for you? Yeah, that's exactly

618
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: how I felt. You know how it's always worse when

619
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 1: you think about things in your head and then you

620
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: get there and you're like, oh my gosh, like this

621
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: is not that scary. That's kind of what it felt like.

622
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: I was building it up and I was like putting

623
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 1: all this pressure on myself that I was going to

624
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 1: be too nervous or too shy. And it was like

625
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: ten minutes in the gwagon with him, and I was like, wait,

626
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: I like this guy. I was like, he's so cute.

627
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 1: I'm really comfortable, and yeah, they were like GoPros in

628
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: the car, but there weren't cameras, there weren't other people

629
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,959
Speaker 1: in the car, so it felt super natural and just

630
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: like it felt like we were on a real date

631
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: in the real world. And it was probably ten minutes

632
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 1: in and like my body stopped shaking and I think

633
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 1: my hands became less clammy, and I was like starting

634
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: to feel more like a human and less You're like, okay, Clayton,

635
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 1: you can hold my hand now together literally and I

636
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 1: was like yeah. I was like, I need to wipe

637
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 1: them dry every time you go to reach my hand,

638
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: now go for my hand. But yeah, it was It

639
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 1: was very apparent that, like early on, I felt super

640
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: comfortable with him, and I think I realized that he's

641
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: like just a person, and um a nice person too,

642
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: like just such a good, genuine, like real human being.

643
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 1: And I figured that out very quickly, and then I

644
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: felt like the rest of my date was fun. I

645
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 1: was still like a little shy and like a little

646
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: nervous at times because I just I'm just getting to

647
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 1: know him, but I definitely felt like there was an

648
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 1: instant connection for me, and I had so much fun.

649
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: Jumping off the yacht was my favorite part of the

650
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 1: whole day. I was so nervous. I thought he was joking.

651
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:40,479
Speaker 1: I thought this was him getting back at me for

652
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 1: the buzzer prank. And I was like, I was like,

653
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 1: are you gonna make me climb over the edge of

654
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 1: this yacht and then you're gonna like let me jump

655
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 1: into water by myself? Like what is happening right now?

656
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 1: What if he was like sea Susan, I was honestly

657
00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 1: thinking that because you guys held hands and when you jumped,

658
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 1: I was like, imagine one of them was just like, nope,

659
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 1: see you later. I was picturing. I literally was like,

660
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 1: if you don't jump when I go, it's like, I'm

661
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,439
Speaker 1: gonna be really upset because I was like, I'm gonna

662
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 1: do this, but I'm expecting you to also do this.

663
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, I was like, it was so exhilarating, it

664
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 1: was so fun. And that's when I feel like that

665
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:21,879
Speaker 1: moment was like such a big moment for you where

666
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: I was like, wait, I like this guy a lot,

667
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: Like he's exciting, you know. Yeah, I feel like we

668
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 1: definitely almost went through those feelings with you. Like watching it,

669
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 1: I could see you know, expressing your nerves in the beginning.

670
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 1: I always really like it when people explicitly say like

671
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: I'm nervous, just so you know, I think like it

672
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: shows confidence actually, And then I feel like I saw

673
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,359
Speaker 1: both of you like relax as the date went on.

674
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 1: But the Dave portion obviously was I mean, I was

675
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: very jealous watching it the whole time. You guys look

676
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: like you had an absolute blast going into the night

677
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 1: portion you obviously kind of it slows down things get

678
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,760
Speaker 1: a little more serious. We saw you be very open

679
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,240
Speaker 1: and vulnerable with him. Can you just touch on how

680
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: you felt sharing that with Clayton, how you felt about

681
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 1: his response, and just what that night portion of the

682
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 1: date meant to you. Yeah, I was. I wanted to

683
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 1: be as open and vulnerable as possible. I think I'm

684
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: a very open person in general, like with myself with

685
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: other people, Like I just I feel comfortable like communicating

686
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,919
Speaker 1: and talking about my feelings and my life and other

687
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 1: people's lives. And I also wanted him to know, like

688
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 1: I didn't expect my life to be in Virginia at

689
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: this point. I didn't really anticipate like being here, but

690
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 1: just kind of what happened with my dad and the

691
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 1: way life took me, I ended up being here at

692
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: twenty eight years old, and I've started to kind of

693
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 1: build my life here and I'm really happy here, and

694
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 1: I'm like this is something that for me, Like I

695
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:55,800
Speaker 1: want to be in Virginia and like I'm open obviously,

696
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 1: and I want to be like make things work with

697
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 1: whoever I'm in a relationship with. But my family is

698
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: so important to me, and I want to know that

699
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,239
Speaker 1: whoever I'm with if nothing else will help, make a

700
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 1: priority to see my family or be close to my

701
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 1: family on some level. And so I wanted to be

702
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 1: kind of upfront with that that a lot has changed

703
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: in my life in these past couple of years, but

704
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: I'm looking for somebody who wants to prioritize their family,

705
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,760
Speaker 1: and I would do the same for my person as well.

706
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: You know, like if if somebody family member is going

707
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: through a health crisis, like I would want to be

708
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 1: close and I would want to put myself out there

709
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: to help and like be a part of um, you know,

710
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: the care team for a partner's family member as well.

711
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,760
Speaker 1: So it was nice to be able to feel comfortable

712
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 1: enough to share that with him, and for him to

713
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: also kind of like acknowledge that and and just to

714
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:50,879
Speaker 1: know that and then want to move forward with me.

715
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 1: It was reassuring. And also it's good for him to

716
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 1: just know where I stand and like for him to

717
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 1: know like how important my family is to me. Well, yeah,

718
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,920
Speaker 1: it's so important, I think, especially right away because in

719
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,959
Speaker 1: this process things move so quickly, like we don't have

720
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,439
Speaker 1: the luxury of dragging anything out, especially when they're big

721
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 1: conversations and That's why I think it was good upfront,

722
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 1: because we've seen it on past seasons where people haven't

723
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: had those conversations of kind of like where they want

724
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: to end up, where they want to be living, what

725
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,879
Speaker 1: they want to be doing. And so I think as

726
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,839
Speaker 1: as I can imagine, because I was in your shoes

727
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: on that very first date, opening up about my father

728
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: and you know, I had a little bit different of

729
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 1: a situation, but still stuff with my family in the

730
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 1: past that I was willing to share with him. And

731
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 1: knowing that, you know, this isn't always first date talk.

732
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 1: You don't know how the other person's going to reciprocate,

733
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: you know, and deal with the heaviness that you're sharing

734
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 1: with them. But it seemed like Clayton was so open

735
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 1: with you, and I think he really appreciated you sharing

736
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 1: your family and everything that you've gone through with him.

737
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 1: So I think it bonded you. So I know that

738
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 1: you say you felt that instant connection, I think he

739
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 1: did too. So I just got to ask, what was

740
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:13,719
Speaker 1: it like kissing him? Oh my gosh, this is so embarrassing.

741
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,479
Speaker 1: But oh my gosh, this is so embarrassing. I'm gonna

742
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 1: admit it. But like I said, I'm so nervous, but

743
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 1: like my mouth was so dry the first time we kissed.

744
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 1: Can I get some hydration over here? Like can I

745
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: get a glass of water or something? But yeah, I

746
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 1: mean obviously, like we shared a few kisses, but it

747
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,880
Speaker 1: felt so nice. It felt like I mean, it was

748
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: like realizing. I was like, I've never like dated somebody

749
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 1: like Clayton. I mean, first of all, he's like very attractive,

750
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: very ends, I'm so tall, and then we have this

751
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 1: like chemistry at least from what I was feeling. I

752
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: was like, wow, like I feel like we have this

753
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 1: instant chemistry and like it felt like I'd known him

754
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: for so long. So yeah, kissing him felt like I

755
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,359
Speaker 1: get hate, oh god, so cheesy, like magical. But I

756
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,879
Speaker 1: was like I was in that moment. I was like, dang,

757
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 1: is this like meant to be? Like I was all

758
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 1: in after my first date. I was like, this is it?

759
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,879
Speaker 1: You know, like I'm going for it. Girl, you went

760
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 1: for it. We are so thrilled that you did. I

761
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 1: think make guess have been good this season. There's been

762
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: a lot of them. No one's told him that. I mean,

763
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:28,800
Speaker 1: speaking of makeouts, Susie, I hate to do this too.

764
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:30,919
Speaker 1: But you know, we got to talk about the love

765
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,080
Speaker 1: and we got to talk about the drama, and I'm

766
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 1: sure the listeners are gonna want to know what you

767
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,799
Speaker 1: think about it. So Makeouts brings me right back to

768
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 1: Cassidy and Clayton by the pool. Can you just touch

769
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,919
Speaker 1: on this whole episode? I mean, we saw a lot

770
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 1: with Cassidy and a lot with Chaney. What are your

771
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: thoughts on all of it? Because I know you probably

772
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: were in the room for some of it, not in

773
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 1: the room for some of it. So I'll just let

774
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,400
Speaker 1: you pick and choose. What are your thoughts on the

775
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 1: drama in the this episode? So I'm sure you guys

776
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 1: experienced this as well, and it worked for like good

777
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 1: ways and bad ways. Like there were people that I

778
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,800
Speaker 1: didn't even really cross paths with us and with until

779
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 1: like week two or three because you're just on a

780
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 1: different schedule. You're going on different group dates or whatever.

781
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,399
Speaker 1: So like the first week I was on the one

782
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 1: on one and all of the drama happened on the

783
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:31,239
Speaker 1: group dates I was not there. I didn't like see

784
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 1: it happening. I would hear it, hear about it in

785
00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 1: the morning, but I know, like one morning, I woke up,

786
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 1: I came downstairs. There's a whole lot happening, and I

787
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,400
Speaker 1: was just getting a little snack, and so I'm like

788
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 1: eating the snack and I'm like overhearing everything happening on

789
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 1: the couches and I'm like, oh my gosh, what's going on. Well,

790
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: I still don't even fully know what happened because I

791
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,760
Speaker 1: wasn't on the date, but I mean, I think people

792
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: were just rubbing people the wrong way in the house,

793
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 1: and I like, fortunately for me, I wasn't around to

794
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,320
Speaker 1: see it happening, but I definitely got like ear fools

795
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: at different times, and I understand it. I think like

796
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 1: you kind of have if you're like in a position

797
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 1: where you're either getting a lot of attention from the

798
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: lead um or whatever it is, like it's better to

799
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 1: air on the side of caution and try to like

800
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 1: at least remain humble and like grateful. I guess, but

801
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 1: I think that maybe it was just rubbing people the

802
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:28,879
Speaker 1: wrong way. And obviously there's some things that are going

803
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: to be addressed in the future, but I think we'll

804
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 1: just have to like wait and see how it's handled.

805
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't really know I'm not. I'm

806
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 1: like like I wasn't in the room, but yeah, and

807
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 1: that that is a blessing. Yeah, I was very lucky

808
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 1: to I'm shocked that the drama started so soon. We

809
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: were all like bfs after night one and then boom

810
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: like it's going, Yeah, it happens quick. I want to

811
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: ask you this because so knowing that you were the

812
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 1: only person that week that had the one on one

813
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 1: with him, like, and I don't want you to give

814
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,840
Speaker 1: too much away like for future weeks, but let me

815
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,839
Speaker 1: preface it with this. I remember going on the very

816
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,839
Speaker 1: first one on one and kind of like you establishing

817
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:22,960
Speaker 1: a really strong connection. I was like, okay, we click,

818
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:26,600
Speaker 1: we hit it off, you know, like he is expressing

819
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 1: everything that I wanted in a partner and vice versa.

820
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 1: It was it was smooth ceiling that first week. And

821
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: then you obviously knowing you can't have a one on

822
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 1: one each week, going into group dates and then being

823
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:39,080
Speaker 1: kind of thrown into the mix again of like you're

824
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 1: not that number one you you know, are one of

825
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 1: many and he's exploring multiple relationships. What was that like

826
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,440
Speaker 1: coming back from your one on one knowing that you

827
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 1: were going to you know, still be in the running

828
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 1: with thirty other women and knowing that he's going to

829
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 1: start some really other strong relationships. Like where was your

830
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,359
Speaker 1: mindset in the kind of days and weeks to come?

831
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: So I think that's like such a good point. And yeah,

832
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 1: I mean had the first one I want, Like you

833
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,520
Speaker 1: get it as you're speaking, and I was like, yeah,

834
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: I never this is going because I definitely experienced it.

835
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: Like I said earlier, I was really set on just

836
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: like going with the flow, you know. I was like, okay,

837
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,360
Speaker 1: like if this is meant to be, it's going to

838
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:25,879
Speaker 1: work itself out, Like that was my mentality. And that's

839
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 1: not always like a great mentality to have. Like some

840
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,280
Speaker 1: like some names. You gotta put in work and effort

841
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:34,160
Speaker 1: and you got to like you know, prioritize things and

842
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 1: you can't just always go with the flow. And that's

843
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,680
Speaker 1: something I've learned about myself, like in the past, but

844
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 1: also through this process. So as much as you like

845
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: try to be cool, you know, you're like, Okay, I

846
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 1: don't like I'm gonna be cool with it, Like it's fine,

847
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,320
Speaker 1: Like it's hard not to see. And it was very apparent,

848
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 1: Like it becomes very apparent, very early on that Clayton

849
00:43:55,760 --> 00:44:00,240
Speaker 1: has strong connections with multiple people. So it's not easy

850
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: because obviously I was very invested. Immediately ten minutes into

851
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 1: the car ride on my one on one I was like, okay,

852
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 1: I'm in. So it's tough, but I think it was

853
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 1: good because I had that balance of trying to go

854
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:18,879
Speaker 1: with the flow but also like recognizing that relationships take

855
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 1: work and effort. So um, yeah, it'll be interesting to

856
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 1: see how it pans out. It's tough, It's it's gonna

857
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,840
Speaker 1: be tough. It's like the toughest dating experience I've had, probably,

858
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 1: but but yeah, it's it's an interesting concept. I'll be

859
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 1: interested to watch it back as well. Yeah, well as

860
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:41,880
Speaker 1: are we. Yes, So Susie bringing it back to you,

861
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:44,480
Speaker 1: can you tell us? And I know that this is

862
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: a hard question, so take your time if you want

863
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,760
Speaker 1: to think about it. But what's something that you want

864
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,320
Speaker 1: people to know about you that either hasn't been shown

865
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 1: yet or maybe you know you know is a side

866
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 1: of you or something about you that there aren't gonna

867
00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: be able to learn from the show. That's a good question,

868
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 1: That's a really good question. I think I don't know

869
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,480
Speaker 1: if this will come across this show. Obviously it might

870
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:20,240
Speaker 1: change as it goes down the line, but my friends

871
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:23,360
Speaker 1: and my family are like the most incredible people in

872
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:27,800
Speaker 1: the world. I truly have like such an eclectic group

873
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 1: of people from all the different walks of life that

874
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: I've had, and I just think that, like all of

875
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 1: those people are like a part or a big part

876
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 1: of the reason why I was able to like get

877
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 1: through that experience and with such a positive mindset. I

878
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 1: have like the best humans around me, and I'm just

879
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 1: like I always think, I'm like, I'm so grateful that

880
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 1: I've had like such great even my friends, like they

881
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 1: are like mentors to me sometimes, like my best friend Lauren,

882
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,960
Speaker 1: She's like the most incredible human you'll ever meet. And

883
00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 1: like before going on the show, everyone gave me such

884
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 1: great vice and was so encouraging, And I knew that, like,

885
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 1: no matter what, as long as I was myself and

886
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 1: I was like honest to who I am, that like

887
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:11,399
Speaker 1: my friends and my family would always have my back

888
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 1: and they would always love me. And I think in

889
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:17,440
Speaker 1: all aspects of life, like doing something challenging, knowing that

890
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:20,800
Speaker 1: you have that support system like allows you the freedom

891
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:22,880
Speaker 1: to be yourself. And I think that I have that

892
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 1: freedom on the shows, like I feel comfortable to be

893
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 1: me because of all the great people I have in

894
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:30,279
Speaker 1: my life. I know that I'm supported, and yeah, I

895
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 1: don't know if that'll come across in the show or not,

896
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:35,720
Speaker 1: but that's I would say, that's like the biggest thing

897
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: or influence in my life are just the people that

898
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 1: I have around me. Oh, well, this is this is

899
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 1: I'm so glad that we're able to have you on

900
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,160
Speaker 1: because prior to bringing you on, Serena and I were

901
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:52,279
Speaker 1: kind of recapping everything and talking about like levels of confidence,

902
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,000
Speaker 1: if you will, on the show, and it's good to

903
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 1: be confident, but not overly confident, where it comes across

904
00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 1: as cocky or insincere or rumps anyone the wrong way.

905
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 1: And I feel like you do like the perfect job

906
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:07,040
Speaker 1: of navigating that where of course you're confident, you know

907
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 1: you have this connection with Clayton, but you still treat

908
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,200
Speaker 1: others with respect and or true to who you are.

909
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 1: So I'm glad that you were able to say that,

910
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,919
Speaker 1: and I'm sure it'll come across. Well. Obviously, I don't

911
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: think we're gonna I think we're gonna be seeing you

912
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 1: for quite some time here, which I'm excited about. Well,

913
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 1: we know that there is still much more to come.

914
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 1: We're only one week in. But without giving too much

915
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:36,320
Speaker 1: detailed away, if you could describe Clayton's season in three words,

916
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:42,239
Speaker 1: what would you say, Oh, that's a good question. I

917
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:54,400
Speaker 1: would say it's wild, it's exciting, and it's genuine. And

918
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,480
Speaker 1: I mean that like on All Friends, it's like there's drama,

919
00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:02,359
Speaker 1: there's love and romance, there's like ups and downs. And

920
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 1: then from Clayton's perspective, like he is such a genuine

921
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:08,400
Speaker 1: person and I got to know a really good human

922
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:12,880
Speaker 1: by going on the show. But then the women are awesome,

923
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,520
Speaker 1: and like I can't wait to see I can't wait

924
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,439
Speaker 1: to see like how the world reacts to these women

925
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 1: because they are just like incredible and they are genuine

926
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,600
Speaker 1: and there are people there just like really opening up

927
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,760
Speaker 1: and being vulnerable and like that to me is so special.

928
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 1: So I would say, yeah, those three words do a

929
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 1: good job to describe what to expect. I love it.

930
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 1: Who are you really close with out of the group

931
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:41,279
Speaker 1: of women, Oh yeah, Oh my gosh, I love the

932
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:45,280
Speaker 1: girls so much, So I would say Gabby is probably

933
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:50,320
Speaker 1: like my best friend from the show, Rachel, Teddy, Serene,

934
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:55,520
Speaker 1: and Kate. She's incredible. She's one of the most wonderful

935
00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,799
Speaker 1: people I've ever met. Marlena is also one of my

936
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:02,200
Speaker 1: best friends. Like she's actually from Virginia Beach too, which

937
00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 1: is so crazy, but she doesn't live here currently, Um,

938
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:07,560
Speaker 1: but as soon as she's back in town, I'm I

939
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:10,759
Speaker 1: need to see you. There's like, there's so many great

940
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:15,480
Speaker 1: women and Tessa we had some really great, great conversations

941
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 1: early on. Um, there's so many wonderful people that I met.

942
00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:23,200
Speaker 1: But I mean I feel I feel like almost everyone

943
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:27,480
Speaker 1: from the show, like we have a great friendship. So

944
00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 1: it definitely do that. There's oh my gosh, like yeah,

945
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:35,759
Speaker 1: because no one else could understand that craziness that we

946
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:39,880
Speaker 1: just went through. Um. But yeah, and everyone's so funny too,

947
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:43,320
Speaker 1: Like everyone was funny. I felt like, yeah, in this episode,

948
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:45,799
Speaker 1: everything that came out of Gabby's mouth, I was like

949
00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:49,280
Speaker 1: laughing out loud that this girl is such a character.

950
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,799
Speaker 1: A lot of people, I mean, I've heard people be like,

951
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:54,520
Speaker 1: was she drunk the first night? But like, I think

952
00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:58,200
Speaker 1: she's just got this like really like quirky, fun personality.

953
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,359
Speaker 1: I'm honestly never seen anyone with a sense of humor

954
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:03,400
Speaker 1: like hers on the show, and I everything she says

955
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 1: I laugh at. I genuinely think she's the funniest person

956
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:10,359
Speaker 1: I've ever met in my life, like of everyone, and

957
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 1: like maybe even from television too, in movies, Like she

958
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 1: is so funny, Like I can't even I mean, I

959
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:18,719
Speaker 1: just want to like be with her and be like, oh,

960
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:21,680
Speaker 1: I just love you, Like she's so great. We gotta

961
00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:23,359
Speaker 1: bring her on the podcast. I know she just did

962
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:25,399
Speaker 1: click Quait last week, but we gotta have her on.

963
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,399
Speaker 1: You Will Be, You Will Be. You all so much fun.

964
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:31,799
Speaker 1: A lot of the women that you just mentioned that

965
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,279
Speaker 1: you love in her close with are all some of

966
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 1: my favorites so far. Like I really like Kate for

967
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 1: some reason, Like she just seems very mature and like

968
00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:42,839
Speaker 1: she just says it like it is but still just

969
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 1: like fun and comforting. But I'm I'm excited to see

970
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,239
Speaker 1: more of the dynamic. And I will say, like, obviously,

971
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:53,720
Speaker 1: only if it goes according to plan, one person will

972
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:55,960
Speaker 1: really fall in love and like get the man at

973
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:57,920
Speaker 1: the end of it. But you can still find so

974
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 1: many friendships and like last eleven, the friendships and the

975
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 1: relationships that you can build. So it sounds like you're

976
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:06,840
Speaker 1: doing it all right so far. I'm so excited to

977
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:10,919
Speaker 1: see more of you, Susie. Before we let you go,

978
00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:15,480
Speaker 1: we gotta play a game with you, and so I'm

979
00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:19,760
Speaker 1: gonna let Serena kick it off. Basically, it's just uh, superlatives.

980
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 1: Who's most likely too? So we're just gonna give you

981
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:24,520
Speaker 1: a sentence and you just say whatever woman in the

982
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:26,239
Speaker 1: house comes to mind. It can be anyone, it can

983
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:30,359
Speaker 1: be you whoever. Yes, I love this game. I feel

984
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:33,160
Speaker 1: like we're gonna learn a lot about the ladies. Okay,

985
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 1: ready to go? Yes, all right, let's start it off.

986
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 1: So most likely to get the party started? Oh, parties started?

987
00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:47,760
Speaker 1: I mean, oh gosh, I'm gonna say Gabby for everything.

988
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: I guess. She's so fun. Yeah, Gabby's a blast. Oh Hunter,

989
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,319
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, Hunter's got some secret dance moves that

990
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,319
Speaker 1: you will. I mean, I hope they get airtime. That's

991
00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:01,440
Speaker 1: all I'm gonna say. Because she's Yeah, she's fun. I

992
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:06,719
Speaker 1: love it. Who is most likely to start drama? Oh?

993
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:16,200
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Um is Clayton a fair answer? Because everyone?

994
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 1: I mean, that's where it all starts, right, I love

995
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 1: that answer because it's like, I mean, I'm taking it

996
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 1: off the girls, but like it's all because of Clayton

997
00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:33,320
Speaker 1: ultimately with him. So he says, you're the drama. You're listening,

998
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:36,320
Speaker 1: He'll take it. I don't if you said that to

999
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:42,120
Speaker 1: Jimmy'd be like, yeah, okay, I'll take it. I know that. Yeah,

1000
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,440
Speaker 1: all right, that's my answer. I already know who you're

1001
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:48,480
Speaker 1: gonna say for this. Who was most likely to get

1002
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:56,280
Speaker 1: the ladies laughing? Gabby's funny. I'm gonna switch this question

1003
00:52:56,320 --> 00:53:02,480
Speaker 1: a little bit. Who has the best dance moves? Oh,

1004
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:06,319
Speaker 1: the best dance moves Hunter? Like, Hunter has some really

1005
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 1: good ones, but she's not always going to drop them out. Um, Serene,

1006
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 1: she can like dance for real. And then I feel

1007
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 1: like Sierra as well, Like I saw some I saw

1008
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:20,920
Speaker 1: some moves with her. Sira, She's pretty. I feel like

1009
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,359
Speaker 1: we saw more of Sierra this episode. But I feel

1010
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:27,319
Speaker 1: like when you see more, yeah, yeah, I hope you will.

1011
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I hope so because she's got such a

1012
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:33,480
Speaker 1: fun personality, but um, I think she was like, yeah,

1013
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:35,520
Speaker 1: shy to let it out at first. Well, the drama

1014
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:45,000
Speaker 1: overshadows especially oh yeah, exactly. Okay, um. Most likely to

1015
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 1: suggest ordering a bottle instead of a glass me always.

1016
00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:56,000
Speaker 1: I feel like maybe Elizabeth. Um, I don't know because

1017
00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:59,640
Speaker 1: we haven't like gone out drinking together yet, but I

1018
00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:01,680
Speaker 1: feel like, if there's anyone I'm gonna get a bottle

1019
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 1: with this Elizabeth, We're gonna like get the bottle and

1020
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 1: spend the whole night chatty. She's awesome. She's your drinking

1021
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:12,840
Speaker 1: buddy on the show. Yeah, okay. Who's most likely to

1022
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:21,680
Speaker 1: sing karaoke? Oh, my gosh, sing karaoke? Okay, wait, so

1023
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:27,120
Speaker 1: Claire Night one? She can sing? I made her. I

1024
00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 1: made her sing at one point. Yeah, she can really sing,

1025
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:31,680
Speaker 1: so I would say her. I don't know if anyone

1026
00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:34,000
Speaker 1: else would do karaoke, I'd be hiding it in the back.

1027
00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:40,320
Speaker 1: But oh I love good karaoke session after a few drinks,

1028

Speaker 1: a cocktail party? Oh my god, you guys are asking

1033
00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:03,080
Speaker 1: the tough questions. Um, I mean I guess I'm gonna

00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:07,000
Speaker 1: give us into Cassidy, but but I don't know. I

1035

Speaker 1: think we all we all want to feel them. Yeah, well,

1036
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 1: I think after what we saw yesterday, I would say

1037
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,960
Speaker 1: Cassidy too. You're not far off base on that one.

1038

Speaker 1: Who's most likely to go to bed first? Oh, Molina

1039

1040
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,920
Speaker 1: if possible, every night. A woman after my own heart.

1041
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:31,319
Speaker 1: I love Malina already. It's she's amazing Molina, Like I

00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:39,320
Speaker 1: Malina is one of them as well. She's she's so awesome.

1046
00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:41,120

Speaker 1: to bed at nine. I loved it. That is so genius.

1048
00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 1: Rachel and I used to wait up for each other

1049
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 1: if we were on separate group dates, and then we

1050

00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 1: they'll walk out with the champagne. They'll give everyone the glass,

1067
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 1: and then they'll have everyone go around and give a

1068
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:44,239
Speaker 1: different toast. And I, Susie, I'm like you. I was like,

1069
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:46,160
Speaker 1: don't call on me, don't pick me, don't look at me.

1070
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:48,399
Speaker 1: I'm not here. I just want to sip. I don't

1071
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:52,200
Speaker 1: want to say anything. It was so nerve wracking, especially

1072
00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,920
Speaker 1: like when you're five or six people in and you're

1073
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:56,799
Speaker 1: like they've already said what I was about to say.

1074
00:56:56,800 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 1: I have nothing more, no new content for you. I'm sorry.

1075
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:06,279
Speaker 1: In Paradise, Becca is obviously the wonderful bachelorette. She is

1076
00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:08,239
Speaker 1: and has the most experience and it is such a

1077
00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 1: pro when it comes to giving toes. They would always

1078
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 1: call on her to give a toes and your phase

1079
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,640
Speaker 1: would dropped every single time, Becket. And then the one

1080
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 1: time they called on me, they fed it to me

1081
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:20,560
Speaker 1: because they knew that I was not going to come

1082
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:24,680
Speaker 1: up with anything on the spot. Oh my god. That

1083
00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 1: is the one thing. I don't think I've ever said

1084
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,360
Speaker 1: this before, but like before I said yes to Bachelorette,

1085
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:33,320
Speaker 1: part of me wanted to say no because I knew

1086
00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:36,080
Speaker 1: how many toasts you had to give, how like just

1087
00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:37,840
Speaker 1: how much you had to talk and be on and

1088
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:40,440
Speaker 1: like your speeches says like I can't do that. So

1089
00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:41,880
Speaker 1: part of me was like, you don't want me for

1090
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:45,440
Speaker 1: the lead, And to this day, like I the amount

1091
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:48,320
Speaker 1: of prep work that I had to like mentally prepare

1092
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:51,120
Speaker 1: for it in my head to do that is unreal.

1093
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:54,600
Speaker 1: So I totally get the anxiety, like the Becca my

1094
00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:59,440
Speaker 1: whole role because I'm serious, I almost because I was like,

1095
00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 1: I can't do what they all have to do. Oh yeah,

1096
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 1: it's like the bast of I'm sweaty now just thinking

1097
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,000
Speaker 1: about it. Ye, Like my arm is, I'm like everywhere,

1098
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:16,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, you gotta get in there. Um okay, last

1099
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,360
Speaker 1: question for the game. Who is most likely to be

1100
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 1: your bridesmaid in a wedding? Oh my gosh, like everyone like,

1101
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:29,160
Speaker 1: that's gonna be an expensive bridal party. It's gonna be

1102
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:32,840
Speaker 1: it's gonna be pricey, it's gonna be pricy. I mean there,

1103
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:34,760
Speaker 1: I'm so close with so many of the women. I

1104
00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,480
Speaker 1: would say, like Marlena and Gabby are two people that

1105
00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:41,000
Speaker 1: I just think, like to the core, I'm like, I

1106
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:47,280
Speaker 1: trust you with life and with my life with everything,

1107
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:50,000
Speaker 1: And those are like two women that I just felt

1108
00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:52,560
Speaker 1: really connected to on the show. So I would I

1109
00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:56,080
Speaker 1: would say probably either both of them or one of them. Awesome.

1110
00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:58,600
Speaker 1: I love that. I can't wait to have them both on.

1111
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll have like a girl session one week with

1112
00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:05,280
Speaker 1: all of you guys. Yes, I know, oh my gosh,

1113
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:07,760
Speaker 1: like a true, a true happy hour. We come on,

1114
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:10,000
Speaker 1: get on a zoom and we just hang. Let's just

1115
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 1: remember person one day, you know. Yeah, Well, we COVID tested,

1116
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:18,240
Speaker 1: I'll supply on the wine back coming day at your place. Yes,

1117
00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:22,680
Speaker 1: please do break it in all right, Susie. That has

1118
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:26,080
Speaker 1: been such an absolute blast having you on. Before we

1119
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 1: let you go, this is one thing we ask all

1120
00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:30,520
Speaker 1: of our guests. And I know we're only one week

1121
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 1: in and still very fresh for all of the viewers,

1122
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 1: but overall, right now on your journey, what has been

1123
00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:41,960
Speaker 1: your rose and what has been your thorn? Oh? Like

1124
00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:45,000
Speaker 1: meaning like the good in the back, like highlight, low light,

1125
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:50,160
Speaker 1: whatever it is, okay up to this point that we've seen. Um,

1126
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:57,120
Speaker 1: the highlight would be I had just come. I came

1127
00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 1: onto the show from a really tough time in my

1128
00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:02,280
Speaker 1: life life, and I was unsure if it would be

1129
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:06,040
Speaker 1: a good thing for me. And it was such a

1130
01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:11,400
Speaker 1: positive experience, like the women meeting Clayton, the mansion, everything,

1131
01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 1: the yacht, the helicopter, all of it. I was like,

1132
01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:16,360
Speaker 1: I felt like I was just the luckiest person in

1133
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:20,560
Speaker 1: the world to be there. My thorn would be, yeah,

1134
01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:24,400
Speaker 1: I think knowing that, I think, yeah, knowing that I'm

1135
01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:26,880
Speaker 1: gonna have to say goodbye to people each week, whether

1136
01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 1: it's me going or them going, and that the experience

1137
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,680
Speaker 1: would be over and like this kind of like fairy

1138
01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 1: tale and incredible experience is going to be over at

1139
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:40,880
Speaker 1: some point, so I think. Yeah, I got emotional every

1140
01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:44,880
Speaker 1: every time that people had to leave. Yeah, it's never easy,

1141
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:48,200
Speaker 1: but hopefully you're bonded for life. As Serena said it,

1142
01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 1: it brings people together in such a weird, crazy way.

1143
01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:55,880
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Yeah, all right, Susie. Well, thank you

1144
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 1: for taking time out of your day. I'm sure you're

1145
01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:01,240
Speaker 1: very busy. Hopefully we will have you back one day

1146
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:04,880
Speaker 1: against and this has been such a blast, but thank

1147
01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 1: you for kicking off such a fun one on one

1148
01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:09,760
Speaker 1: this week. And you know, I'm sure we'll see much

1149
01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:11,440
Speaker 1: more of you to come. So thank you so much

1150
01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:15,000
Speaker 1: for joining. Yes, thank you so much, Susie. We can't

1151
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:17,720
Speaker 1: wait to watch the rest of your journey. Thank you,

1152
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:19,640
Speaker 1: Thank you guys for having me. This was so fun

1153
01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:21,560
Speaker 1: and I still can't believe I was talking to the book.

1154
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,800
Speaker 1: So pretty cool. I can't believe we're talking to you.

1155
01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:29,920
Speaker 1: We're the lucky ones. Thanks girl, We'll see you safe. Oh.

1156
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:33,200
Speaker 1: I really like her. I like her too, She's just

1157
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:37,840
Speaker 1: very comfortable to talk to, easy, confident. I mean, I

1158
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:41,000
Speaker 1: feel like what you see on the show is what

1159
01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 1: you get, and I love that, and I like how

1160
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,840
Speaker 1: she had mentioned in her life how important family and

1161
01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:48,720
Speaker 1: friends are to her and that she's just built up

1162
01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:51,480
Speaker 1: like such an eclectic gray of people in her life,

1163
01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:56,360
Speaker 1: which I think definitely can only help on a journey

1164
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:59,640
Speaker 1: like this, where you know people from all around the country,

1165
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:04,000
Speaker 1: different backgrounds, everything, And it seems like she really is

1166
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:07,280
Speaker 1: just miss congeniality in the house so far. So I'm

1167
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:08,920
Speaker 1: glad that we were able to have her on get

1168
01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:11,240
Speaker 1: to know her a little bit more. And yeah, I

1169
01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:14,600
Speaker 1: can't wait to see where this journey takes her again.

1170
01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:18,439
Speaker 1: Like I don't know much about really what the hell

1171
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,440
Speaker 1: is going to happen this season, from everything that I've gathered,

1172
01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:23,200
Speaker 1: it sounds like it's going to be one hell of

1173
01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:27,000
Speaker 1: a ride, and so hopefully Susie's long for quite some time,

1174
01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:29,320
Speaker 1: because you know, I'm Betty now she's making it far.

1175
01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,440
Speaker 1: I think she will be. I mean, Clayton seemed genuinely

1176
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:35,800
Speaker 1: so excited about her, and I think everyone could see

1177
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:39,200
Speaker 1: their connection was very obvious. But I mean, we're two

1178
01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:41,760
Speaker 1: for two and out back at every episode I've watched

1179
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:45,400
Speaker 1: has been so much romance and even more drama, So

1180
01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:47,360
Speaker 1: I think we're in for one hell of a season.

1181
01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:50,080
Speaker 1: It's been fun. I can't wait to see where it goes.

1182
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,640
Speaker 1: We'll just have to tune in next week to see

1183
01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:55,880
Speaker 1: what we have to recap. I'm sure more drama and

1184
01:02:55,960 --> 01:03:00,680
Speaker 1: more love and I don't know, hopefully just more of everything,

1185
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:02,520
Speaker 1: because it's been good so far. This season is not

1186
01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:05,600
Speaker 1: disappointing me. So do you think next week we're gonna

1187
01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:09,960
Speaker 1: have a little more or a little less of chinane Cassidy. Oh,

1188
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:15,920
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna, unfortunately, have a lot more. Yes,

1189
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:19,040
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna end anytime soon. We'll just

1190
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:21,040
Speaker 1: have to wait and see. I just want to know

1191
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:25,160
Speaker 1: is Cassidy the one with the boyfriend? Will find out

1192
01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:28,480
Speaker 1: next week. Tune into another episode of Batchelor Happy Hour then.

1193
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:32,040
