WEBVTT - Welcome to ‘Bachelor Pad’! 0:00:02.000 --> 0:00:04.200 Hey, everyone, Welcome back to Bachler Happy Hour. 0:00:04.360 --> 0:00:05.800 I'm Joe and I'm Serena. 0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:10.760 We are here to recap a different episode something we've 0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:15.320 really never talked about on this podcast, which is Bachelor Pad, 0:00:15.560 --> 0:00:18.200 which came out before Bachelor in Paradise, and we're kind 0:00:18.200 --> 0:00:20.560 of doing this because we're getting ready for Bachelor in Paradise. 0:00:20.880 --> 0:00:24.520 But Bachelor Pad Season three, episode one was just released 0:00:24.560 --> 0:00:28.120 on Bachelor Nation's YouTube channel, so we watched it and 0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:32.000 we're going to recap that shit show right now. 0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:35.640 If you are not familiar with Bachelor Pad, because it's 0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:40.239 been what like fifteen years since Bachelor Pad was a thing, 0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:43.080 there's a couple seasons of it. It took place in 0:00:43.120 --> 0:00:46.000 the Bachelor Mansion, similar style to Paradise, where it was 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:50.400 like co ed guys and girls, but it was a 0:00:50.440 --> 0:00:55.360 mix of dating and a competition show, so there's different pairs, 0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:59.920 there's competitions like physical challenges that you have to win 0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:02.319 and then compete for to get different advantages, and then 0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:05.520 the goal at the end was to both hopefully find 0:01:05.560 --> 0:01:08.279 a relationship, but even more so to win the cash prize, 0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.720 which was I believe two hundred and fifty thousand dollars 0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:11.800 this season correct. 0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:15.479 So one thing that so obviously Bachelor Pett evolved into 0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:20.440 Bachelor in Paradise, which watching bacheler Pet, the first thing 0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:24.720 that was kind of like I didn't love was that 0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:27.720 they were in the mansion. Still, I like the aesthetic 0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:30.000 of like a beach in paradise. 0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:33.000 Yeah, well, I love the mansion. I think it's so iconic. 0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:36.440 But I think what people forget is on the regular 0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:38.880 seasons of The Bachelor and the Bachelrette, you only see 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:41.640 so much of the mansion. It's really just like where 0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:44.120 the girls and guys are hanging out and sleeping and 0:01:44.160 --> 0:01:46.080 getting date cards, and then you're out and about like 0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:48.400 you're on dates with the lead, and then after week 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:51.520 four you're traveling, so like it's not as much as 0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:54.240 it's an iconic symbol. It's really just like a big 0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:56.040 part of night one, and then after that you're not 0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:59.520 seeing that much of it, seeing a whole season in 0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:03.120 the mansion. I think that a setting like a beach 0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:06.880 in paradise, like Cabo Costa, Rica is a way better 0:02:06.920 --> 0:02:09.760 fit for like a full time show. I agree the 0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:13.720 flow of the house. It's also like it's a little dark, 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:16.600 like it's got like that like Spanish influence to it. 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:19.959 Yeah, it's just a little like it's just it's a 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:22.600 little small. Yeah, so too, you know, And it's not 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:24.920 small obviously for like a family to live there, but 0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:26.320 it's like to have. 0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:28.760 Like a cast of thirty people film me there twenty 0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:32.080 four to seven. I would actually be curious to know 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:35.760 if they were like having challenges with that a little bit. 0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:40.880 I mean I'm sure, yeah, sure, so we The first 0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:43.840 thing we're kind of introduced to is you get the 0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:45.919 cast that are they're all coming back, and you have 0:02:47.000 --> 0:02:49.520 people like who we know, like Chris Pokowski is kind 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:51.560 of the only one that we personally know. 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:56.480 Yeah, Chris Pukowski, who's been on like the most Bachelor 0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:59.520 shows ever. Yeah, you're probably familiar with him. He was 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:01.480 on Pair Nice a few times. He came from Emily 0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:05.600 Maynard season and he's now with Anna Redmond. Yeah, but 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:09.880 everyone else I was not as familiar with. I mean, 0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:11.920 we know Chris personally, I don't know any of the 0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:16.840 other cast members, but all from seasons. Just to give 0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:21.640 you a little context, Deanna, Jillian, Harris Ashley, and Emily 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:26.000 Maynard seasons of the Bacherette and then Ben Flanagan, Brad 0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:29.680 and Lorenzo's seasons of the Bachelor is what we're pulling 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:32.800 some pulling from. So we're going like very old school 0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:36.600 but like kind of like the height of Bachelor stiff. 0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:39.320 Yeah, I would say those the people that make seasons. 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:41.520 I would assume that the people that were on this 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:47.120 season were the most were the fan favorites of their 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:48.880 season of The Bachelor. 0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:50.080 Bacherette definitely. 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:53.360 I mean, like, you know, Ed was engaged to Jillian 0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:55.200 Harris and it didn't work out, and he's like a 0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:56.520 main character in this. 0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:01.520 TV because the guy's just getting wasted running around naked. Yeah, 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.720 we don't get to see that stuff anymore totally. 0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:08.280 And then we have Kaylin, who was on Emily Maynard's season. 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:10.440 He was kind of the villain. He called her daughter 0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:13.920 baggage and he's like like. 0:04:13.920 --> 0:04:17.480 That, Like that's the thing about like now everyone is 0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:21.000 so media trained and social media trained that you will 0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:25.160 never see that. Yeah, but like it it's a reminder 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:30.320 of how like funny and raw reality TV was, yeh 0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:35.240 be because people were just fucking talking crazy shit. 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:38.320 Oh yeah, Like even this first episode, I couldn't believe 0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:41.080 I could believe what they were saying, but I couldn't 0:04:41.120 --> 0:04:44.520 believe they were saying it on Bachelor Pad, a show 0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:46.440 that has like millions of viewers. 0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:48.800 Attacks on like people's just looks. 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:52.040 Oh, it was constant, just their physical appearance coming for 0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:54.960 one another. And I mean, you know they're referencing, Like 0:04:55.000 --> 0:04:57.080 you guys have to remember that are listening, Like they're 0:04:57.120 --> 0:05:00.960 referencing the tabloids, like that was where things were happening. 0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:03.760 There was no social media. So it's like nowadays, you 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:05.400 say something on the show that people don't like, you're 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:08.320 getting attacked in your DMS. They have this direct access 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:10.800 to you. They're picking apart your character, they're picking apart 0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:13.160 everything that you have said, whether they like it or 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:16.159 don't like it. There was no direct access unless you 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:18.560 like ran into these people on the street. So like 0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.480 you have these people that are villains, you know, like 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:24.679 Blakely talks about like how she wasn't very like like Kaylin. 0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:27.560 He's like, yeah, like I called her daughter baggage, and 0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:29.799 like I'm standing ten toes down on what I said 0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:32.960 and like I'm down to be controversial and not liked 0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:35.479 because like it was just way less of a risk 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:38.800 back then. I really think like social media has elevated 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:44.320 and like decreased the entertainment. 0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:45.440 Of reality television. 0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:48.760 Like watching this, I was like, wow, like you would 0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:52.400 just like Sarafina called Zoe's dress super short and like 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:54.920 we all were up in arms. The stuff people are 0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:57.360 saying about each other on this show doesn't even come 0:05:57.560 --> 0:05:58.760 close to. 0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:00.760 That, Like, it is way more below the ball. 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:04.880 This is this is the ship talking that contestants getting 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:10.040 their dm dms from people that watch the show, they 0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:12.520 will get this kind of shit said to them. 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:14.800 Yeah, but it's different from like, you know, someone in 0:06:14.800 --> 0:06:18.360 the house versus like hundreds of strangers who are like 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:20.440 taking it way too far. 0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:23.600 Yeah. I just think it's funny because like yeah, like 0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:26.039 like that comment from Sarah Fina and I was like, 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:29.960 how could you say that? It's like fucking a ton 0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:32.320 of people watching this at home, we're saying shit like that. 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:34.960 Oh yeah, people are saying it on the comfort of 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:37.960 their couch. But then we've got we've got this Bachelor 0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:41.040 padcast being like you're ugly and I hate you and 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:43.360 you're stupid and your dress is hideous? 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:44.400 How could she wear that? 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:49.800 It's disgusting because ugly and like just like direct comments 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:51.560 on like these people. 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:52.159 It's crazy. 0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:53.280 Jacquline walked up to. 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:55.359 Blakely. 0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:59.479 Yeah, David Jaffin walked up to David by the pools, like, 0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:01.880 you're to vote me out? I just want to let 0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:03.440 you know you're a loser and you're ugly. 0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:09.720 Whoa, whoa, it's so crazy about I love it. 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:13.240 Then the second thing they introduced to us is they 0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:20.920 are bringing fans of Bachelor onto Bachelor Pad to compete, 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:25.480 which is interesting. Also, the show has to remind us 0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:29.520 a million times that, like, the fans love watching the 0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:32.440 Bachelor and that they're on the Bachelor. It's like this, 0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.240 I don't know why the show feels the need to 0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:39.120 plug their own show during their show. On a consistent, 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:42.880 fucking basis, everybody is on watching the Bachelor. You don't 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:46.920 have to remind us that there's fans of the fucking show. 0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:49.440 And they call them the fans like that, Like we're 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:52.400 not saying that, Like they call them the fans. 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:54.680 They call themselves like we are the fans. Like it's 0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:55.040 like the. 0:07:55.000 --> 0:07:58.200 Contestants and then the fans, even though the fans are competing. 0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:01.520 But it's kind of funny because they've cast people that 0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:03.520 are obviously good looking, like they look like they could 0:08:03.520 --> 0:08:06.120 be on the show, but they're casting people that they 0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:09.480 know specifically. These girls are that are gonna like not 0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:11.600 keep their cool, like they're not gonna come in and 0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:13.440 like act like they've been here before. Like they're coming 0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:16.440 in and they're like fanning out over Chris Harrison. They're 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:21.160 asking for selfies, like they are not acting like, oh, 0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:23.679 we're all here as contestants, like we're all here together, 0:08:23.840 --> 0:08:26.000 like they're coming and being like, oh my god, this 0:08:26.080 --> 0:08:26.720 is my dream. 0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:28.000 I can't believe I'm here. 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:32.120 Like, yeah, it's a very distinct line between like who 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:33.439 the fans and who the contestants are. 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:35.480 Definitely, but I also think that was. 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:39.040 Push Oh yeah, I'm sure it was encouraged, like this 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:40.840 is so exciting, you know, we want to see that 0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:43.679 you're a fan of this show, like don't be afraid 0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:45.679 to like show that. Whereas like if a girl on 0:08:45.840 --> 0:08:48.400 Night one did that, like you're gone, You're home, You're 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:50.840 going home immediately, if you walk up to the Bachelor 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:52.560 and you like start fanning out. 0:08:52.679 --> 0:08:57.679 Yeah, so yeah, interesting, interesting element to bring fans on, 0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:02.040 and it's pretty much an immediate like Okay, there are 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:07.760 people from the show the contestants from prior seasons, and 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:11.280 then there's the fans. We are going to x out 0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:14.280 the fans, like immediately you're on, Like I think it's 0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:16.120 like Chris Pucoski's like, you're on our show. 0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:20.439 Yeah, it's us against them. This girl Rachel is like enough, 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:23.600 I don't want them here. And I mean they've made 0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:26.160 it so like there's way more like there's triple the 0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:28.680 amount of contestants than there are fans. There's only five 0:09:28.679 --> 0:09:30.439 of the fans, so like they've made it very easy. 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.080 If the contestants want to pick them off, they can. 0:09:33.200 --> 0:09:35.480 And I think even I think it was Rachel who said, 0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:38.440 like you didn't get your heartbroken on national television, Like 0:09:38.480 --> 0:09:40.000 you didn't have to go through and we had to 0:09:40.040 --> 0:09:42.640 go through to be here, like almost the sense of 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:46.480 like there's an initiation process that you got to skip 0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:48.160 and like that's not fair. 0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:58.439 Yeah, yeah, very funny. So I kind of I guess, 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:02.880 like my but I like issue with it. If I 0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:06.120 were to say I had an issue, is I kind 0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:08.360 of like if I want to watch a competition show, 0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:10.520 I want to watch a competition show, and if I 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:13.760 want to watch a show about people falling in love. 0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:15.480 I want to watch a show about people falling in 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:19.400 love the hybrid of both of those. As of now, 0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:22.960 just watching episode one is like a little confusing because 0:10:22.960 --> 0:10:24.480 I'm like still like what are we? 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:28.000 What are we? Is the question? Like what is this? 0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:30.240 Yeah? What am I watching? And it's kind of hard, 0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:33.360 like I don't even know. I yet to know, Like 0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:35.760 how do you even win? The two? Like I get 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:36.960 that there's competitions. 0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:41.400 Well, Like for those listening, the structure from episode one 0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:44.720 that's presented is you pair up. You just pick your partner, 0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:46.679 like it doesn't even have to be on like if 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:49.240 you're interested in them romantically, you pick a partner. I 0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:52.679 think it's you know, girls and guys obviously, and then 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.439 there's this competition that happens where they have like these. 0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:57.200 Hanging big hearts. 0:10:57.240 --> 0:10:59.480 So we're like still on the theme of love, and 0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:01.280 you and your partner have to fit into the heart 0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:03.040 and they like tilt them and make it difficult for 0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:04.680 you to stay in it, and the person that stays 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:08.280 in the longest wins and you're safe from elimination. So 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:11.920 very like traditional competition structure, like similar to like a 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:13.079 survivor a big brother. 0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:17.120 I think that they needed to. I don't know. 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:19.080 I think they're having a like in episode one, like 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:21.360 it's hard to dictate, like is this like the challenge 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:24.360 where like it's a competition show, but like you also 0:11:24.520 --> 0:11:26.200 know that people are going to end up poking up 0:11:26.240 --> 0:11:29.240 and getting together just like naturally by having you know, 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:33.079 a bunch of heterosexual men and women in the house together. 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:35.080 Yeah, I think that's what they're going for. 0:11:35.920 --> 0:11:37.640 Yeah, So like we're not so it's not. 0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:41.920 So like I would say it's competition show first, dating 0:11:41.960 --> 0:11:45.120 show second. Yeah, but they're filtering in this kind of 0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:47.959 like dating theme by making like the guys and girls 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:51.440 partner up and pick their partner and doing like the 0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:53.000 love themed competition. 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:56.480 Yeah, but we're not we're not showcasing on this show. 0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:01.000 I don't believe that they're going to be focusing or 0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:03.880 showcasing a love story. If anything. They want to see 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:08.679 like people hooking up. Yeah, and arguments from that I'm 0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:11.200 assuming from like like we're already seeing it with crys 0:12:11.240 --> 0:12:14.200 Pokowski and his partner and he's talking to another girl 0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:16.000 and his partner is upset. 0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:19.520 Yeah, Chris Bukowski ends up with Blakelee as a partner 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:23.480 and then like that night, like very soon after he 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:27.840 is chatting with this girl Jamie, they're making out, Blakely's 0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:29.480 piss like we're in an immediate love triangle. 0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:32.079 Yeah, And it's like, why is Blakely pissed? Well, she's 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:35.160 saying she's pissed because she wants to win the money. 0:12:35.440 --> 0:12:41.040 But I would assume she's pissed because maybe she thoughtge thing. 0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:43.200 But like that's the thing. You don't you can't like 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:45.400 some of it, Like you can't really tell at least 0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:48.440 from episode one, And I think that's my gripe. 0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:49.800 Your gripe with that. 0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:52.440 Yeah, well I think like let's say, okay, so we 0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:55.960 look at like The Challenge, which is a competition reality 0:12:56.000 --> 0:12:59.560 show that has like a lot of romantic sideplots, and 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:02.360 then we look get something like leve Island, which is 0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:07.640 a romantic dating reality show with competition side plots. And 0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:12.120 I think that Bachelor Pad in this first episode hasn't 0:13:12.160 --> 0:13:14.200 exactly figured out which one it is yet, like what 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:16.040 is the focus the competition or the dating? 0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:18.640 Yeah, and maybe there is when because there was seasons 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:21.880 prior to this, so maybe like people do know, we're 0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:22.480 just we just. 0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:24.680 Don't probably just yeah, we're just dummies. 0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:28.600 Yeah, but also we should add that, you know, these 0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:31.440 two fans who partnered up David, and then there's twins 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:34.160 on this who are acting as one person, which I 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:35.559 just can't with twins. 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:38.320 And everyone the house seems to be really annoyed by 0:13:38.360 --> 0:13:39.080 the twins. 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:41.480 They don't like the twins Eric and Brittany, which makes. 0:13:41.320 --> 0:13:45.600 Sense because watching episode one, they come across a little alike. 0:13:45.760 --> 0:13:49.120 Well, they're already in a disadvantage because they're fans, not contestants, 0:13:49.280 --> 0:13:52.200 and then they're saying like, hey, we're one person, Like no, 0:13:52.240 --> 0:13:54.360 you're not your two adult, grown women, Like. 0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:57.280 Well, but that's but that's also they're being Yeah the. 0:13:57.240 --> 0:13:59.320 Show, they've been cast as one person, but yeah, they're 0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:02.000 not coming across great David. Eric and Brittany win that 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:06.160 first competition, and their reward, other than being safe, is 0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:08.040 they get to go on a date. So I guess 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:10.800 if you're like, if you're partnered with someone and it's 0:14:10.800 --> 0:14:13.160 starting to turn into a romance, it's like that additional 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:16.000 incentive like, oh, we'd love to win because we want 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:17.920 to be safe, but also then we get to leave 0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:20.280 the house and go on a date together. 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.720 So what's going to happen when you and your partner win, 0:14:23.840 --> 0:14:26.200 but you're cooking up with somebody else so that you 0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:28.360 go on a romantic date with your partner. 0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:32.000 Yeah, I don't know, that's kind of like another element 0:14:32.040 --> 0:14:34.120 to it. Yeah, I mean I think you just keep 0:14:34.160 --> 0:14:36.800 it friendly and you just talk game strategy instead of 0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:40.080 getting romantic. But yeah, no, there's definitely like a lot 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:43.720 of potential jealousy that could occur here. I mean we're 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:45.320 already seeing it with Chris and Blakely. 0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:49.360 Did you find anyone or did you see anyone on 0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:53.680 this first episode that like you were rooting for, because 0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:56.120 that was one thing also that I kind of noticed 0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:59.960 is Yeah, I would say the Bachelor and The Bachelor 0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:04.360 and even Bachelor in Paradise they kind of like they 0:15:04.440 --> 0:15:09.360 kind of like showcase like a hero on episode one 0:15:09.440 --> 0:15:12.200 or somebody that like the fans are gonna like, well, they're. 0:15:12.040 --> 0:15:15.360 Telling you, like they're giving you clues of like these 0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:19.520 are the one or two people that are safe, like 0:15:19.600 --> 0:15:23.120 you can like them, like they're they're good, and then 0:15:23.400 --> 0:15:25.120 you know you've got like. 0:15:25.680 --> 0:15:28.360 The chaotic evil yea of like these. 0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:30.080 Are maybe the villains, but maybe we like them a 0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:31.960 little bit, like we've got the Kaitlin of it all, 0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:36.280 who's like kind of a little out of the control, 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:39.400 but like he's entertaining. Or Erica Rose, Like Erica Rose 0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:42.320 and Kaylin are in this feud because Erica Rose went 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:46.560 to the tabloids about Kaylin and like spoke badly about him. 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:50.040 They're both great, Like they're great immediately them, Like you 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:52.480 cannot kick one of those two people off from now. 0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:55.400 Erica Rose almost gets sent home. So almost got sent home, 0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:58.040 and it was like, no, you cannot lose her. She's 0:15:58.080 --> 0:16:00.359 doing so much, she's so entertaining. 0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:03.000 I would say, Michael Michael got the. 0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:06.440 Editor, Yeah, Michael Stagliano. 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:08.440 Of like everyone's gonna like this guy. 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:12.120 Well, and he has been on Bachelor before.

And 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:23.200 also like everyone seems to really like him. 0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:25.760 Yeah, so they should kick him off. 0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:28.800 How do we feel about Okay, so something we got 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:32.560 to talk about. Like Chris Harrison comes in and you know, 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:35.240 he talks to everyone in the room, and like this 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:40.560 guy ad from Chicago can't even sit and listen. He's 0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:43.680 so fucked up. He's jumping in and out of the pool. 0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:47.600 Yeah, he's in like little white tidy whities. 0:16:47.400 --> 0:16:49.360 Which like there's a girl like we don't care how 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:50.240 big your dick. 0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:53.240 Is, Like put some pants on and sober up. That 0:16:53.320 --> 0:16:54.920 was funny. I think that was Jamie. 0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:58.920 That that was a wild time for reality TV. I forget, 0:16:58.960 --> 0:17:03.280 like like I was like, all right, like like I 0:17:03.320 --> 0:17:09.760 feel socially awkward. This is intense and intimidating. I need 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:13.680 a drink to you know, calm down. Yeah, yeah, get 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:15.840 rid of the edge. But like I'm probably gonna like 0:17:15.880 --> 0:17:18.120 and then everyone's gonna be kind of doing well, that's. 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:20.240 What it is. It's everyone. I mean Ed's gone above 0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:20.600 and beyond. 0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:23.320 Like everyone is clearly in their interviews by the end 0:17:23.359 --> 0:17:25.840 of the night like they're drunk, Like they are doing 0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:29.760 interviews absolutely drunk. They are sloppy, they're slurring their words. 0:17:30.280 --> 0:17:34.360 But Ed is like on another level, like he's so hammered. 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:36.600 He's literally out in the pool. Well, Chris Heireus' is like, man, 0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:38.320 we're trying to film a scene. Like I'm trying to 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:40.479 explain to you literally what show you're on. And like 0:17:40.600 --> 0:17:44.400 he's just not even there. I don't know, it's it's 0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:46.120 just a different time. But I also think like social 0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:47.520 media plays a role into it too. I don't know 0:17:47.560 --> 0:17:49.520 if you would see as many people because like, look, 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:53.880 it's all young, attractive, single people that are like, I've 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:56.280 got an open bar and a gorgeous mansion. I'm just 0:17:56.280 --> 0:17:58.240 here to have a good time. Like I'm young and 0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:01.080 I'm just like looking a party. I think social media 0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:05.000 makes people like just more conscious. I don't think I 0:18:05.040 --> 0:18:07.439 don't know if we can see as many people getting 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:08.639 as drunk as we used to. 0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:12.000 Well. I also it also has to do with like 0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:15.800 the show, right, Like it's kind of been proven over 0:18:17.160 --> 0:18:22.800 the history of The Bachelor with social media that the 0:18:22.880 --> 0:18:26.600 contestants that do well after the show, and what I 0:18:26.640 --> 0:18:28.240 mean by do well is like you know, get a 0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:32.159 lot of like love and grow social media following. Those 0:18:33.560 --> 0:18:39.119 people are characterized on the show as very nice, either 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:45.480 heartbroken or end up in love. Yeah, anyone that's like 0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:49.040 going on the show like for a good time to 0:18:49.320 --> 0:18:52.320 get fucked up, which is what all these people are. 0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:53.920 Doing and like shamelessly. 0:18:54.200 --> 0:18:57.960 Yeah, Like and that's that's like the biggest difference yeah, 0:18:58.000 --> 0:19:01.960 and it's kind of fun. Like it's so it's like 0:19:02.000 --> 0:19:06.399 refreshing after watching so many seasons of of kind of 0:19:06.440 --> 0:19:07.120 the same thing. 0:19:07.280 --> 0:19:07.520 Yeah. 0:19:07.560 --> 0:19:11.240 Well, it's also like as viewers, we watch reality because it's. 0:19:11.200 --> 0:19:13.280 Not that serious, you know, it's fun. And I mean 0:19:13.320 --> 0:19:14.240 I think Bachelor. 0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:16.960 And Bachelott definitely have more of a serious tone to them, 0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:19.760 and that's to be expected. But like Paradise, I feel 0:19:19.760 --> 0:19:22.400 like there's been a bit of a struggle of it's 0:19:22.400 --> 0:19:25.040 like Paradise is not that serious, like, yeah, you want 0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:26.760 to find love, you want to find a relationship, but 0:19:26.800 --> 0:19:31.760 it's meant to be this like fun, young, beachy show. 0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:35.639 And I think that we've kind of lost that tone 0:19:35.840 --> 0:19:39.800 of like guys, like, don't stop taking yourself so serious, 0:19:39.800 --> 0:19:41.600 Like this is meant to be fun, And it like 0:19:42.000 --> 0:19:45.840 translates as a viewer watching Paradise versus watching Bachelor Pad. 0:19:45.880 --> 0:19:48.040 Like Bachelor Pad, they're like, yeah, it is meant to 0:19:48.040 --> 0:19:49.800 be fun, Like we're literally just here to have a 0:19:49.800 --> 0:19:50.120 good time. 0:19:50.200 --> 0:19:51.840 Yeah, And it was also a different time, like, like 0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:55.959 I would say, drinking culture was totally that. This was 0:19:56.160 --> 0:19:57.960 still a time where you would go to bars in 0:19:58.040 --> 0:20:00.360 Chicago and be able to smoke cigarettes in there. 0:20:00.560 --> 0:20:04.280
