I had never 71 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 5: seen the show before, so I had relatively little knowledge 72 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 5: of what I was even supposed to be doing there obviously, 73 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 5: other than getting to know this person, I'm seeing Jen 74 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:25,399 Speaker 5: for the first time. 75 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 2: I think she looks stunning. I mean, she looks magnificent. 76 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: And did you know did you know she was gonna 77 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: be the bachelorette before you went on? 78 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: No, I didn't even know any of the contestants. I 79 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: saw her. 80 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 5: Premiere when they announced it, and that was the first 81 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 5: time that I had never seen Jen ever, ever ever 82 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 5: heard her speak, ever say a word. And so for me, 83 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 5: it wasn't like I feel like, for me, it wasn't 84 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 5: about making a shopping cart list of who I could 85 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 5: think it could be and then going and treating the 86 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 5: situation like it was. I just wanted to go and 87 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 5: meet a genuine person and that could possibly like me 88 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,839 Speaker 5: for who I am, and that was all that had 89 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 5: crossed my mind at that point. It was nice, it 90 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 5: was nice to kind of go and blind. I didn't 91 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 5: think there was a connection right away with Jen, especially 92 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 5: since I started talking about feet right away. 93 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 2: Thankfully, she's a very good sport and kind of rolled 94 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: with the bunches my use a little bit. But yeah, 95 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: I was nervous. I mean, there's cameras everywhere, there's all 96 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 2: these guys. 97 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 1: So when did you feel the connection? 98 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 5: I think I think that when I took her for 99 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 5: ice cream, and how willing she was to have a 100 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 5: conversation with me away from the group right then and there, 101 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 5: and because of how my personality is, it kind of 102 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 5: was telling about who I was and the fact that 103 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 5: she enjoyed that moment with me told me that she 104 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 5: enjoyed how I am and who I am and and 105 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 5: a little bit of that. So that was like my 106 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 5: first like, okay, this girl's this girl's kind of cool, 107 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 5: like she's down a skip class and go get ice. 108 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 2: Cream with me, Like that's an amazing feeling. 109 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 5: So it started there and it just, you know, obviously 110 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 5: only grew over time. But I didn't I didn't know 111 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 5: right away if she was into me. I didn't know 112 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 5: night one if I was gonna be there, you know, 113 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 5: coming the next week. 114 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 2: But you know, again, for me, it was all about 115 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: the experience. 116 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 3: So she she compared you to Pete Davidson in episode one. 117 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 3: I think we've seen people online saying it too. Is 118 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 3: that a comparison you've gotten before? 119 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 5: So yes, I actually get that way more than I'm 120 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 5: proud of I think, I know. But for me, like 121 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 5: I always had this idea of Pete Davidson, like in 122 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 5: my mind that he was just this person that they're 123 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 5: not ugly, but just you know, he's not on the 124 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 5: better looking side of people in the world, and so 125 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 5: and so for me, like when people would tell me that, 126 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 5: and it's happened a lot more, I think in the 127 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 5: last like three years, I get it quite frequently. 128 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 2: But for me, it's it. 129 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 5: I'm like, as long as I don't look like him, 130 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 5: that's great. As long as I remind you of Pete Davidson, 131 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 5: that's fantastic. I do a lot of the same. You know, 132 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 5: I'm very vocal. I guess I moved my head all 133 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 5: out when I talk or whatever. But reminding him is 134 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 5: much better than looking like him. 135 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: I actually don't really think you look like him, thank you. 136 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 5: No. 137 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 3: I think it's like the energy and the mannerisms and 138 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 3: kind of the way you talk more so than I appreciate. 139 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: That means a lot. He could never grow a mustache. 140 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: Like this, never ever, so so you so you connect 141 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,840 Speaker 1: over ice cream. But then when you did pull her 142 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 1: for ice cream, that was kind of I think that 143 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 1: was the start of like the Devin arc of the 144 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: guys hate me essentially or not are upset with me? 145 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: Did you realize that was going to rub all the 146 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: guys the wrong way when you did make that move? 147 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 5: And no again, because because I haven't seen the show 148 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 5: and I don't know how any of this stuff works. 149 00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 5: My my mindset was like, Okay, we have how long 150 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 5: to talk to this girl and be with this person. 151 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 5: We're into like a rug store looking at rugs. Everybody's 152 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 5: doing their own thing at that point. You know, Jen's 153 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 5: kind of looking around like a shop early She's trying 154 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 5: to buy something for her house. So for me, in 155 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 5: my mind, I was like, Okay, this is a great 156 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 5: opportunity for me to kind of just get to know 157 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 5: this person a little bit more one on one time. 158 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: And so I didn't know that. 159 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 5: It was gonna affect a certain select group of people, 160 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 5: and for the most part, not everybody was upset. In 161 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 5: my mind, I think it was a playful gesture, taking 162 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 5: a little bit out of context for what it actually was, 163 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 5: and that rubbed a couple of people the wrong way. 164 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: And was. 165 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 5: No, no, no, I was just gonna say, like I didn't 166 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 5: I didn't expect the implications of this to be what 167 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 5: it was, especially when you look back on it from 168 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 5: that original moment, like, you know, it's just ice cream. 169 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 5: You know, I may have talked to her for a 170 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 5: few minutes and then it was back to business. Everybody 171 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 5: was you know, they didn't let me enjoy the moment, 172 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 5: that's for sure, you know what I mean. 173 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 2: So I didn't know it was going to be like that. 174 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 4: Would you go back and do it again? 175 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: I think? I mean, yeah, I think that was the 176 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: right move, especially if she's walking around looking for rugs 177 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: and no one's even like really talking to her, then 178 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, it's almost a genius move exactly. 179 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 5: And and for me it was like, you know, and 180 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 5: again it's gelatto. I was corrected on this a lot. 181 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 5: It's gelatto on, not ice cream. But with the gelato thing, 182 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 5: it was just an opportunity for me to get some 183 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 5: side conversation in a little bit of stuff that you know, just. 184 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 2: Hey, look i'm here, i'm available, I'm a good guy. 185 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 2: Let's have some fun with it. 186 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 5: I'm not really going to be concerned with the opinions 187 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 5: of many as long as I have the validation. 188 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 2: Of your opinion. 189 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 5: That's all I care about, you know, So that's that's 190 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 5: kind of my thought process through that whole thing. 191 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I mean, look, it was a ballsy move 192 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 3: for sure, one that paid off. But we see that 193 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 3: a lot of the time the female leads on these 194 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 3: group dates feel like they get lost. It happens at 195 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 3: least like once or twice a season where they're like, yeah, 196 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 3: all these guys are like growing out and I'm just 197 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 3: here by myself. 198 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she forgot that. 199 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, So I think it was a good move in 200 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 3: the sense if she's standing by herself, she would much 201 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 3: rather be pulled aside and made you feel wanted by 202 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 3: someone because she started to find love. But we do 203 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 3: see the guys start ripping into on the second half 204 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 3: of that date because you have the roasts. Were you 205 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 3: surprised that it was kind of like the roast of 206 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 3: Devin or were you expecting that. 207 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 5: Like, I'll put it like this, It's not that I 208 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 5: didn't see it coming. I'm like, I'm a person that 209 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 5: doesn't take themselves too seriously. I say this all the time, 210 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 5: Like I told this to the guys in the house, Like, 211 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 5: my friends and I are way meaner to each other 212 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 5: than you. Guys have ever been to me, so like, 213 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 5: this doesn't bother me. I think it's it was the 214 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 5: fact of the matter that it did put such a 215 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 5: sustainable thought in their mind, like Devin is a problem, 216 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 5: Devin is a thing. 217 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 2: But in my mind, I'm thinking, Okay, they're just talking 218 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 2: about me. Jen's just hearing my. 219 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 5: Name over and over and over again, Like there's gotta 220 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 5: be something at least to talk about here. So was 221 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 5: it funny I left? You know, I didn't take offense 222 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 5: to it. I didn't take any part in like being 223 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 5: upset about the jokes yet. Did I think I had 224 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 5: it coming? 225 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 2: Probably? 226 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 5: But you know again, if you're gonna dish it, take it, 227 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 5: And I think that's what I did in that moment, 228 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 5: just kind of yeah, roll with the punches. 229 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: So Aaron, now we're friends with I never met Aaron, 230 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: but we're friends with Noah, Aaron's twin brother, and Noah 231 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: actually Noah was a contestant on the show who another 232 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 1: another guy gave Noah a book about like maturity and 233 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: the like being immature. So it's just like it was 234 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: funny now to see Noah's twin brother give you a 235 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 1: book on like what is it self growth whatever. Yeah, 236 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: let's talk about that. 237 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, walk us through the Aaron things. We see you 238 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 3: guys have the ice cream standoff and the and we 239 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 3: see him giving the book. The ironic thing is, I'm 240 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,599 Speaker 3: curious that they would agree with this. I think, no, 241 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 3: why is more similar to Devin than he is to 242 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 3: Aaron personality wise? 243 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 1: Yeah? I do too. Yeah. 244 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 5: See see, I don't know. I've only only heard about 245 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 5: this from like after the fact, because I didn't know. 246 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 5: I heard that he had a brother on the show, 247 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 5: like when we were there, and so I didn't think 248 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 5: anything of it. 249 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 2: But I didn't know it. 250 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 5: Went like the rabbit hole went as deep as it did. Yeah, 251 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 5: for me, I think with the whole situation with Aaron 252 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 5: was I knew that he was the vocal one about 253 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 5: being upset about the ice cream situation, and I could 254 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 5: have saw myself empathizing with him maybe a little bit. 255 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 5: For me, I don't see the big deal. I'm like, 256 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 5: what is the big deal here? You know that we're 257 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 5: making this commotion about. But when he pulled me aside 258 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 5: to talk to me at the bar, if you remember 259 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 5: at the cocktail party, he doesn't like make it a 260 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 5: situation that talks about him saying, hey, I was uncomfortable 261 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 5: about this situation because of this. He immediately leads into, hey, 262 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 5: you're not a man and you're not grown enough to 263 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 5: be with a woman. I'm judging your character, I'm judging 264 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 5: your depth. I don't think she wants to be with 265 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 5: a boy. And I'm like, we don't even know each other, Like, 266 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 5: we don't even know each other yet. So I think that, 267 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 5: you know, any inclination that I had to hear him 268 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 5: out in that moment kind of went out the window. 269 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 2: You know. 270 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 5: I'm like, Okay, we're gonna just make bold assumptions like that. 271 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 5: Then I can't help you here, buddy. You know I'm 272 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 5: I'm not the guy that you're gonna rile up, that's 273 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 5: for sure. Do I think I was a little petty 274 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 5: with him with the ice cream afterwards, Yes, of course, 275 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 5: But that's who I am a little bit. You know, 276 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 5: if I'm gonna get under your skin and and I'm 277 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 5: gonna see how people act when they're under pressure, because 278 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 5: I think that shows a lot of who you are 279 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 5: is is you know, not ideal environments. 280 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 2: How are you gonna operate? You know, how you're you 281 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 2: gonna operate. 282 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 4: Tell us about the book situation, like, I. 283 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 2: Mean, it's the same, It was the same. 284 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 5: Had I known it was like something that had happened 285 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 5: in his lineage before, I would have made probably a 286 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,199 Speaker 5: little bit more of a joke. 287 00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 2: Out of it. For me, I just thought it was 288 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 2: very condescending. 289 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 5: Again, as much fun as I'll poke at you, I'll 290 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 5: never like make assumptions about who you are or what 291 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 5: your values are and what you believe in and the 292 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 5: things that you deserve in life and things that you 293 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 5: don't deserve in life. So for me, what the biggest 294 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 5: thing was was he was trying to like sun me 295 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 5: in that moment and try to bestow this wisdom on 296 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 5: me that he clearly didn't have himself about maturity in 297 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 5: the stage where if it's if it's bothering you so much, 298 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 5: let's have a real conversation, let's talk about it, let's 299 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 5: get over it. He wanted to like get back at 300 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 5: me in that in that setting, and I'm sitting there like, Okay, 301 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 5: we're we're having this discussion again about depth, We're having 302 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 5: this discussion again about character. And then you just follow 303 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 5: up and you call me Dylan, which could have been 304 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 5: a joke on his part, but even in the moment, like, 305 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 5: if it's a joke, then you must realize how silly 306 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 5: you're sounding right now for making this an argument. If 307 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 5: it's gonna be, you know, something you make fun of 308 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 5: my name for so, I don't know, man it was. 309 00:13:58,120 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: Do you think you guys do you think you guys 310 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: have if you ran into him now?

There's 655 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 5: I won't say very many nice things about him, but 656 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 5: that's one thing I'll say. 657 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 2: You know, he's a good looking guy. 658 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 5: And I think that he's kind of had it easy 659 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 5: and maybe the women department a little bit, not saying 660 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 5: that I've had such a hard time, but me and 661 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 5: me and him we do things completely differently in life, 662 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 5: and I think he doesn't understanding that I can achieve 663 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 5: the same things that he's necessarily achieved by being getting 664 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 5: all this attention, being validated by this woman that you like, 665 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 5: you know, having these experiences with her and her enjoying it. 666 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 5: I think that it's frustrating him that he almost sees 667 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 5: himself as better than me. Why is this guy, you know, 668 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 5: on the same level in Gen's eyes or maybe a 669 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 5: little bit low. I don't know where the rankings are 670 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 5: at this point, but you know what I mean, Like, 671 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 5: he's just. 672 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: Well you think that you think that's true?

Why does Jenn even like him? 675 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 2: How about this? 676 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 5: I'll say this, I'll say in my mind, I think 677 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 5: he thinks he thinks he's better than me, but he 678 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 5: doesn't know why. It's not translating into real life. 679 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 3: The first time we see you guys kind of go 680 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 3: head to head, because you know, we've seen you with Aaron, 681 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 3: we've seen you with Thomas, but sam M is kind 682 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 3: of always mixed up in it.
