Speaker 1: This is Suckers. I'm Klen Bell, I'm Dean Bell, and
Speaker 1: I'm Jared han An.
Speaker 2: iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 3: What is going on? Everybody? Welcome to an all new,
Speaker 3: very special episode of your favorite podcast. The name of
Speaker 3: that podcast is Suckers.
Speaker 4: Woo.
Speaker 3: My name is Dean, joined by Kaylin and Jared. As always,
Speaker 3: I don't even need to say it. Don't know why
Speaker 3: I always say it, but I always do. I also
Speaker 3: feel like I'm always the one introing this podcast, and
Speaker 3: I feel really guilty about that.
Speaker 2: Oh, you shouldn't you started this? You start it every week.
Speaker 3: Oh that's a good point. That's a good point. You
Speaker 3: guys are my employees basically. But how is everybody? Jared?
Speaker 3: How are you? I know how Kaylen is so. I
Speaker 3: don't really care as much I care, but I know so.
Speaker 3: I don't need to care beyond that.
Speaker 1: I'm gravy. I'm good, just live in Rhode Island.
Speaker 3: My life.
Speaker 1: I'm concerned when we have a second kid, my life
Speaker 1: is just going to continue running into monotony. And it's like, actually,
Speaker 1: I was trying to talk to Ashley about that talk
Speaker 1: with Ashley about that very subject the other day, and
Speaker 1: we didn't really get much into the conversation because obviously
Speaker 1: just like devolved into sadness, even though it's not sad,
Speaker 1: it's just can you know, it's scary. It's great obviously
Speaker 1: as long as our kids are healthy or the most
Speaker 1: important thing, everybody's safe. But like, at the same time, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm scareduless and like very worried, which I think it's
Speaker 1: a very normal thing to, you know, say, when about
Speaker 1: to endeavor on having more kids.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's fair having two kids. It's you know,
Speaker 2: two against six.
Speaker 1: It's just like I can't believe we're doing I can't
Speaker 1: believe we're going back into it. I can I like,
Speaker 1: holy shit, I can't believe there's just gonna be another
Speaker 1: baby here.
Speaker 3: It's so funny because you guys are expecting your second
Speaker 3: boy in what three months? Four months?
Speaker 1: Yeah, July twenty ninth, So we got a while.
Speaker 3: And my brother, whose baby was born right around the
Speaker 3: same time as Dawson was, is expecting his second girl
Speaker 3: in July as well. So you guys are on the
Speaker 3: same exact program. You have two boys, and he's having
Speaker 3: two girls. Yes, really talk to him about that.
Speaker 1: Two girls. I'm curious how he feels about that. As
Speaker 1: he said, he's pretty stoked. He would be stoked either way,
Speaker 1: but he's he's a good girl dad. I'm sure he
Speaker 1: probably would have wanted like kind of you guys, one girl,
Speaker 1: one boy, but you know your dealt the cards, you're
Speaker 1: dell and I think he's stoked either way.
Speaker 3: So well, that's good. Yeah, all right, I have a
Speaker 3: question before I forget it. When this podcast was loading,
Speaker 3: I was just brainstorming genius ideas and this is one
Speaker 3: of them. Jared, if you could go on any game show,
Speaker 3: what game show would it be?
Speaker 2: You let this build this up to be.
Speaker 1: A letdown. That's that's the question. Yeah, because we were
Speaker 1: talking about before he went on air, because when the.
Speaker 3: Babies, I had the internal like Jeopardy monologue, that's dude,
Speaker 3: I don't want to do it because a copyright infringement
Speaker 3: or whatever. But I was like, I think Jared would
Speaker 3: probably do pretty good on Jeopardy.
Speaker 1: That's the sweetest thing. But I mean I watched Jeopardy
Speaker 1: a lot. I'd say I get I don't know, probably
Speaker 1: about thirty percent of the questions correct. If that, I'd
Speaker 1: say the game show I would like to go on
Speaker 1: most is probably the first one comes to mind is
Speaker 1: Price is Right, because I feel like I would have,
Speaker 1: just like anybody else, at least a decent opportunity to win,
Speaker 1: because whenever I watched the Press is Right, I'm always
Speaker 1: playing the game along with them, especially in the final.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you what, it's harder than you think.
Speaker 3: One of I believe it quicksided by one of my
Speaker 3: best friends.
Speaker 2: Who officiated a wedding, Jackson.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh Jackson. You met Jackson? That's right. He was
Speaker 3: a big Prices Right fan. He's been trying to get
Speaker 3: on for years. He eventually gets on but doesn't get
Speaker 3: called down, so they invite him back and then Kaylen
Speaker 3: and I go with him as their guest. So there's
Speaker 3: four of us, him and his girlfriend, and he gets
Speaker 3: called He's the first person down. So he like does
Speaker 3: the first showcase. I remember this, Oh yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 3: saw you cheerleading. Oh gotcha. I wasn't. I talked about it,
Speaker 3: but he was up there the whole time. Never got
Speaker 3: on stage, and he like practiced. He was going through
Speaker 3: his entire list of like how much does laundry detergent cost?
Speaker 3: All that stuff? And he didn't even make it up.
Speaker 2: No, no, no. He he looked us, He's like, what
Speaker 2: is the price of this? It was like some weird
Speaker 2: steam shower, and we were like, go up, go up,
Speaker 2: and we let him astray.
Speaker 3: No. Well, so that's the thing too, is I got
Speaker 3: like two in a row, like almost spot on, and
Speaker 3: then he would look at us, and then you guys
Speaker 3: would point at me and I'd be like nine hundred,
Speaker 3: and then they'd say the price, and it'd be like
Speaker 3: three fifty.
Speaker 2: And it turns out the guy next to him, because
Speaker 2: it's like in a row. And so Jackson was third,
Speaker 2: the next guy was fourth. He had the funniest name,
Speaker 2: and it's like prices, right rules. So somehow the fourth
Speaker 2: guy screwed him over. Yeah that dollar more than whatever, Yeah, exactly, and.
Speaker 3: Then he ended up wotting the the Grand Showcase. But
Speaker 3: that all being said, I do see where you're coming from, Jared.
Speaker 3: It's kind of the same way when I play, like now,
Speaker 3: when I play, but when I watch Who Wants to
Speaker 3: Be a Millionaire, and it's like it's so obvious, it's
Speaker 3: b and you're like yelling at the screen. But I
Speaker 3: can only imagine how much more stressful it has to
Speaker 3: be when you're.
Speaker 2: Up there, stressful, and you can get screwed over so easily,
Speaker 2: Like if you have the right answer, the guy next
Speaker 2: to you can just steal that answer and add a
Speaker 2: dollar to it.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, if you bed. If you're the second to
Speaker 1: last one, that's why you have to be the li one,
Speaker 1: because the second of the last you've been fifteen hundred
Speaker 1: and then the next person's like fifteen oh one. You're like,
Speaker 1: well that sucks unless it's fifteen hundred and ninety nine
Speaker 1: cents unscrewed.
Speaker 3: So price is right. Huh, that's an interesting answer. I
Speaker 3: wouldn't have expected that from you.
Speaker 1: Well, the reason I say that is because I mean,
Speaker 1: all these other game shows I would find more difficult.
Speaker 1: Not to say, the price story isn't difficult, of course
Speaker 1: it is. But you know, when I'm on if I
Speaker 1: was on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Or Jeopardy,
Speaker 1: oh you know what, will Fortune? That's my answer? Will Fortune?
Speaker 1: That's the one right there, the two games that require
Speaker 1: the least amount of skill one hundred percent, because it
Speaker 1: would be I would have the best opportunity to win,
Speaker 1: because I just don't think I'm smart enough to one.
Speaker 1: I'm definitely not smart enough to go on Jeopardy. And secondly,
Speaker 1: I'm not I don't think smart enough to win that
Speaker 1: much money on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, because
Speaker 1: I'm sure we've all played while watching Who Wants to
Speaker 1: Be a Millionaire, And once we get to like the
Speaker 1: whatever it is five thousand or ten thousand dollars question,
Speaker 1: I'm probably out of lifelines. I don't know the answer,
Speaker 1: So I don't know than a fifth grader. I've actually
Speaker 1: never really seen that.
Speaker 3: You're same.
Speaker 2: Oh, I watched it when I was a kid.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I hope I'm smarter than a fifth grader.
Speaker 1: But also at the same time, like, for example, one
Speaker 1: of my employees at Audrey's, her daughter is a she's
Speaker 1: seven or eight, so I don't know what that is.
Speaker 1: Second third grade? Oh yeah, third grade. But like she
Speaker 1: was telling me about how they teach math now, and
Speaker 1: they teach math so differently now than they did when
Speaker 1: we were in school that if I was asked questions
Speaker 1: that they asked third graders, I'm not sure if I
Speaker 1: would be able to get the answer correct, judging just
Speaker 1: based on how they're teaching the kids.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's got to be tough to being a parent
Speaker 3: of those kids because you were taught one way at
Speaker 3: like long division, for instance, if they have a new
Speaker 3: method for long division and they're teaching them how to
Speaker 3: do long division in school one way, but you know
Speaker 3: how to do it a different way, and then they
Speaker 3: come home and ask for help on their homework and
Speaker 3: you're showing them a completely different method, even if the
Speaker 3: answer is the same. It can only just muddy the
Speaker 3: waters a little bit, I would imagine.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Also, back to Jeopardy, I think they should do
Speaker 2: a Jeopardy uh season or just one episode where it's
Speaker 2: all reality TV contestants the most obscure you can find.
Speaker 2: I think it would be hilarious.
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure because I'm kind of the same band
Speaker 3: as Jared. I like Jeopardy. I like watching it. I
Speaker 3: don't think I'm smart of but when we watch it together,
Speaker 3: I get like.
Speaker 2: A quick questions I should say ninety five percent.
Speaker 1: Okay, ninety five percent. It is such bullshit. I'll take
Speaker 1: I love you way on this earth or any other earth.
Speaker 1: If he got ninety five percent, seventy five, I'll take it.
Speaker 3: There's no way he gets Senator Jared, She's exactly right.
Speaker 3: Nine seventy five to ninety five percent of the time.
Speaker 3: I get it right over.
Speaker 1: There is no way that Dean gets seventy five percent
Speaker 1: of the questions correct while watching Jeopardy.
Speaker 2: He's very smart.
Speaker 3: Hey man, what can I say? I'm a real good jeopardizer.
Speaker 1: I think what we should do all three of us.
Speaker 2: Oh, I suck it?
Speaker 3: No, no, no, you're good at certain categories for sure. I
Speaker 3: maybe even bring Ashy on so it could be like
Speaker 3: an actual panel of four jeopard or no, it is
Speaker 3: three Jeopardy contestants, so maybe that would be perfect with
Speaker 3: us three. We should have Easton be the Alex Trebek
Speaker 3: one and special episode, the Jeopardy episode where he's the
Speaker 3: host of the show. We're the contestants playing his game,
Speaker 3: and we'll see who wins. I would love nothing more,
Speaker 3: just a little bonus episode, a little Jeopardy bonus episode.
Speaker 3: I don't know if there's there shouldn't be any like
Speaker 3: copyright laws against that, but I mean, I agree. I
Speaker 3: don't think seventy five percent is right. I do. I
Speaker 3: love the fact that you think that I'm that smart.
Speaker 2: Wait, that's crazy because you you do answer most of them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll like answer it and then I'll kind of
Speaker 3: know I'm wrong. It's all maybe like ask you a
Speaker 3: question to distract you to not see what the actual
Speaker 3: answer is. But as it really just comes down to
Speaker 3: like answering with some confidence. Okay, but Jeopardy would be
Speaker 3: a lot of fun. I do think though, like I
Speaker 3: would have, I would stand zero chance against a real
Speaker 3: Jeopardy contestant, like those really intellectual people that play Jeopardy
Speaker 3: but I think.
Speaker 2: Are really bad.
Speaker 3: I think I could hold my own if it was
Speaker 3: just like Bachelor contestants or a reality contestant.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't that be so fun? And it could. It's such
Speaker 2: an older generation and that watches Jeopardy. That's a way
Speaker 2: to get the younger ones in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1: What type of Jeopardy are we playing? Are we playing
Speaker 1: real Jeopardy with reality TV stars or are we playing
Speaker 1: a watered down version where we might be able to
Speaker 1: get some.
Speaker 3: Correct I think if the standard questions are like, let's say,
Speaker 3: collegiate level, we'd have to dumb it down to high
Speaker 3: school level or something like that, you know, just to
Speaker 3: make it you don't want to go oh for or
Speaker 3: you don't want to go one for twenty you want
Speaker 3: to at least go like five twenty or ten for
Speaker 3: twenty you want to make it.
Speaker 1: I also wouldn't want to watch a TV show where
Speaker 1: it's like Ken Jennings asked a question and then it
Speaker 1: just shows the three panels, you know how like that
Speaker 1: it's that awkward four seconds of silence. Yeah, where nobody
Speaker 1: buzzes in. That would be the entire show.
Speaker 3: Sure, all right, well we're going to do that. Easton
Speaker 3: said he's down to be the host for us. So
Speaker 3: I think we just need to figure out how we're
Speaker 3: going to organize that.
Speaker 2: We're going to do that, and I'm going to recording
Speaker 2: this week, watching and just check myself really and.
Speaker 3: If there's cuts, don't worry about the cuts, obviously, and
Speaker 3: if it's a rerun, don't worry about that. If it's
Speaker 3: a rerun either. But yeah, that's what we're going to do.
Speaker 3: I did I have another idea that I wanted to
Speaker 3: just maybe an act real quick. One thing that struck me.
Speaker 3: We all know what we're suckers for, traveling pop culture, books, books,
Speaker 3: daddy daddy ing. I want to know what the man
Speaker 3: behind the scenes is a sucker for. We all follow
Speaker 3: him on Instagram. We all know a little bit about him.
Speaker 3: We all know he's a little freaky and this you
Speaker 3: know in the in the city a little sometimes. But
Speaker 3: I want to know what he truly considers himself a
Speaker 3: sucker for. So Easton, if you don't mind just popping
Speaker 3: on here real quick and enlightening.
Speaker 5: Us, Hidin, it's great to be here. Thanks for having me.
Speaker 5: I'm a sucker for a lot of things.
Speaker 3: I know you are, but what but we got to
Speaker 3: pick one.
Speaker 4: One man, Let's go.
Speaker 3: Let's run through hi real quick. We've got movies, We've
Speaker 3: got uh, we got a cartoon characters, We've got cheesecake factory.
Speaker 3: We've got there's there's so many more. But I can't think.
Speaker 3: What do you think?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 5: I mean, I think if I had one, I'm a
Speaker 5: sucker for theme parks. I love themed entertainment, and I
Speaker 5: think under that banner falls weird restaurants, tourist traps, anything
Speaker 5: that has a bizarre original character or a weird song.
Speaker 4: I love that stuff. I truly do.
Speaker 5: Art that has created solely to make money is what
Speaker 5: I love. Like I love songs that are made just
Speaker 5: for movies, like Kokomo by the Beach Boys is made
Speaker 5: for Cocktail starring Tom criz I love but like theme
Speaker 5: parks are something that I'm very, very passionate about, So
Speaker 5: if I had to pick one themed entertainment, that's what
Speaker 5: I was on a sucker for.
Speaker 3: I want you to have your own segment once a week.
Speaker 3: I want to hear about the obscure things that you're
Speaker 3: a sucker for and you just because the thing with
Speaker 3: you too is you can go into such greater detail
Speaker 3: than any of us could about the things that we
Speaker 3: really enjoy. You seem to really have a really grassroots
Speaker 3: understanding of a lot of the things that you enjoy.
Speaker 3: So I think it'd be very that's very.
Speaker 5: Kind of Dan, And I'll have to check with the
Speaker 5: powers that be because I'm normally not allowed to speak
Speaker 5: unless i'm spoken to first. So well, if you truly
Speaker 5: want me to do that, I'm more than happy to.
Speaker 3: Maybe this is what I'll do. We could pitch it
Speaker 3: like this, I'm a sucker for traveling, but I'm also
Speaker 3: a sucker for hearing East and talk about the things
Speaker 3: he's a sucker for. So I could be like my
Speaker 3: second segment.
Speaker 5: You're so sweet, all right, Well, we will make that happen.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 5: If I want to hear me ramble by myself for
Speaker 5: about forty five minutes an hour ninety minutes about the
Speaker 5: new Fast and Furious roller coaster, I can do that.
Speaker 4: That's something I'm happy to do, all right.
Speaker 1: Well, so, what is the best theme park in the
Speaker 1: world that you've ever obviously experienced.
Speaker 5: I'm very poorly traveled, Jared. I've never crossed an ocean.
Speaker 5: There's a lot of incredible theme parks overseas from what
Speaker 5: I hear.
Speaker 1: But what's the best theme park in the United States?
Speaker 4: I think it's got to be Disneyland.
Speaker 1: I think it's Disneyland. Have you been to disney World.
Speaker 5: I've never been to disney World, But Disneyland has the
Speaker 5: magic of Walt Disney. He walks through that park. His
Speaker 5: DNA is all over the place, literally and figuratively. And also,
Speaker 5: I think that Rise of the Resistance is the best
Speaker 5: theme park ride in North America, and that ride is
Speaker 5: at Disneyland and at Florida.
Speaker 4: But it's a Disneyland.
Speaker 3: What about have you been to Cedar Point.
Speaker 5: I've not been a Cedar Point. I'm familiar with its game,
Speaker 5: but I've not been a game.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, it's so interesting that you say that your
Speaker 1: biggest vice is theme parks you've never been. I feel
Speaker 1: like you should travel. You should. You should like be
Speaker 1: the guy traveling to different theme parks and really giving
Speaker 1: these things ratings. Like I would love to know your
Speaker 1: opinion about the differences between disney World and Disneyland. Now,
Speaker 1: Disneyland is separated into two parks, correct, isn't it like
Speaker 1: Adventure Land.
Speaker 4: It's it's Disneyland and California.
Speaker 1: Adventure, Disneyland and California Adventure and so. And the Disney
Speaker 1: World is obviously four different parks. We have Epcot, Magic Kingdom, MGM,
Speaker 1: and Animal Kingdom.
Speaker 5: I'm just going at people who come to this podcast
Speaker 5: because they're fans of the Bachelor, and then they hear
Speaker 5: some guy they've never heard of talking about the geography
Speaker 5: or Florida.
Speaker 1: You know what I've learned though, People who love Bachelor
Speaker 1: love Disney That's true. You want to know what I've
Speaker 1: learned too, is people that listen to this podcast or
Speaker 1: any of our like Becca's podcasts, all that love you
Speaker 1: and Mark with a burning passion, and rightfully so It's
Speaker 1: very deserved, don't get me wrong, but they're every time
Speaker 1: you guys come on, and then I see like people
Speaker 1: comment about the podcast. I was like, I love Easton
Speaker 1: talking about this or that, so don't tell I'm blushing.
Speaker 4: I'm blushing stuff.
Speaker 3: And another thing too on that in that regard, like
Speaker 3: if Jared and I were to go to a theme
Speaker 3: park and reviewer or like compare Disney World to Disneyland,
Speaker 3: we would talk for five minutes. You could write, I
Speaker 3: feel like a five hundred page thesis about the differences
Speaker 3: and why you prefer one over the other, vice versa.
Speaker 3: You know, you know what you know?
Speaker 5: I did one time. If there's internet slicic, it's very
Speaker 5: deep in the internet. But one time I did a full,
Speaker 5: full commentary to the movie The Mask, the Jim Carrey
Speaker 5: movie The Mask, and I recorded a whole If you
Speaker 5: press play when the movie starts, it's just me doing
Speaker 5: commentarat during the movie.
Speaker 1: Why the Mass specifically, I just.
Speaker 4: Like that movie a lot. I have a lot to
Speaker 4: say about it.
Speaker 3: I have a lot to say about it. This is
Speaker 3: a This is kind of a deep cut. But there's
Speaker 3: an office episode where they go to Gabe's house and
Speaker 3: he finds like his synth, piano or something like that,
Speaker 3: and someone asks him what kind of music he plays,
Speaker 3: and he goes I like to take a moment in
Speaker 3: time and expand it out to be the size of
Speaker 3: the universe. And that just reminds me of Easton. For
Speaker 3: some reason. I feel like he could he could do
Speaker 3: that with just about anything that he's passionate about.
Speaker 4: I am a man of passion, and I have a
Speaker 4: lot of passion to give. So thank you for recognizing that. Dan.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, Easton, thanks for joining us. I'm sorry to
Speaker 3: bring into this. I just had something I don't want
Speaker 3: him to stop.
Speaker 1: I want to talk about Disney because, like, I think
Speaker 1: you're underestimating my love for Disney and movies as well.
Speaker 1: Like I feel like I could talk to Easton all
Speaker 1: day and night about these things. So like, all right, Easton,
Speaker 1: do you think that Disneyland is a good destination theme
Speaker 1: park for a date? Like if you wanted a date.
Speaker 5: Night I do, And will bring us back to the
Speaker 5: original thesis of this podcast of relationships. I think it's
Speaker 5: a great idea for a date, especially early on, because
Speaker 5: there are a lot of trials that one has to
Speaker 5: endure with a day at a theme park, specifically Disneyland.
Speaker 5: There's time management, there's planning, there's endurance, physical and mental.
Speaker 5: You're gonna be waiting in long lines, You're gonna be
Speaker 5: walking a lot, you got a you're spending a lot
Speaker 5: of money. I think you discover a lot about a
Speaker 5: person by taking them to a theme park. Also also
Speaker 5: what they're into, Like does this person want to get
Speaker 5: a cocktail that has neon blue? Or do they want
Speaker 5: to go on a ride? Do they want to meet
Speaker 5: a character. There's a lot of things you can learn
Speaker 5: about somebody by going to Disneylands. I think it's a
Speaker 5: great idea. It's an expensive date, but I think it's
Speaker 5: a great idea.
Speaker 1: But do you think that the stress of theme parks
Speaker 1: would be good? So I feel like, if you're going
Speaker 1: to go to a theme parks together as a date,
Speaker 1: I don't think you should do it early on. You
Speaker 1: think the stress is good because like, for example, if
Speaker 1: I went to a theme park with someone I was
Speaker 1: dating early on, I think that they would not like me.
Speaker 1: One because as much as my enthusiasm is probably contagious
Speaker 1: while being at Disney, it's probably also extremely annoying. And
Speaker 1: then furthermore, my because my enthusiasm is so high while
Speaker 1: I'm at a theme park, like the idea of being like, Okay,
Speaker 1: well we have to get we're going to do enter
Speaker 1: it this time, and then we're going to book the
Speaker 1: fast pass year. But then we're going to get in
Speaker 1: line here and like everything is scheduled that I don't
Speaker 1: know if I would necessarily have fun with a date
Speaker 1: because they would probably just be annoyed at me by
Speaker 1: the end of the day.
Speaker 5: But that's you at your truest form, and I think
Speaker 5: it's best to show people that as early as possible.
Speaker 3: I fully agree with you, beautiful person.
Speaker 1: I never want anybody to see that side of me
Speaker 1: until we're locked in, until the second sad.
Speaker 3: Is on the way. That's the way Jared's willing to
Speaker 3: go to a theme park with you and show him
Speaker 3: to show you his true side.
Speaker 5: I mean, I understand that, Like there are definitely things
Speaker 5: that I waited until my wife signed a contract that
Speaker 5: she wouldn't leave me. Then I showed her, you know, like, oh,
Speaker 5: if you have to find a judge in an attorney
Speaker 5: if you want to leave me now.
Speaker 4: But I stand by what I said.
Speaker 5: I think that it's good, not just on the theme part,
Speaker 5: but I think it's good to show people who you
Speaker 5: are early on this whole, Like everyone always says like
Speaker 5: you want the best version of yourself on the first
Speaker 5: couple of dates.
Speaker 4: No, I say, give them the worst version of you.
Speaker 4: Could be terrible.
Speaker 2: That's what Dean did.
Speaker 3: I mean, I fully agree with that. He's just saying.
Speaker 3: I think that if you can just show your worst
Speaker 3: sides of you right out of the gates, if they
Speaker 3: stick around, they're probably worth keeping around. And if they
Speaker 3: don't stick around, they weren't the person for you.
Speaker 4: Anyways, Amen, I.
Speaker 1: Want to hear Kaylan's point of view on this. Do
Speaker 1: you think that you should be fully transparent, like from
Speaker 1: day one, first date on? Of course transparent honesty, But
Speaker 1: I mean, like, I guess my mind goes in disgusting places.
Speaker 1: But Kaylen will want to hear your piddon.
Speaker 2: I think it's hard to do that, but if you can, yeah, Like,
Speaker 2: I think everyone automatically puts on their best face and
Speaker 2: it takes a minute to like shed those layers and
Speaker 2: feel fully comfortable. You know, Dean is an enigma and
Speaker 2: can just kind of show his full true self to
Speaker 2: anyone at any time, But I think most people it
Speaker 2: takes a minute to feel comfortable.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the exhibitionist in me just like to show
Speaker 3: all my colors. No, no, not oh yeah right right right, yeah.
Speaker 4: Let's not commit any crimes here. But you know, I
Speaker 4: think it is good to bury your soul.
Speaker 3: They should do like a newdest day at Disneyland. I
Speaker 3: don't know, I just thought it'd be interesting, you know,
Speaker 3: a bunch of like obviously adults only kind of day
Speaker 3: out there, and you know what you're signing up for.
Speaker 3: But just let the exhibitionists go out to Disneyland and
Speaker 3: uh go wind everywhere. I don't know.
Speaker 5: I like the energy, but I think that conflicts with
Speaker 5: their mission a fact.
Speaker 3: And if they did that, of.
Speaker 5: Course, I mean I like any big swing when it
Speaker 5: comes to a themed day there.
Speaker 1: But talking about walking and naked into disney.
Speaker 4: I don't want.
Speaker 5: I don't wan there to be a headline now that
Speaker 5: I want to walk naked around Disneyland. It's not something
Speaker 5: I want to do. I like having my clothes on Disneyland.
Speaker 5: That's where I have the most fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, some of them get caught, and something bad might
Speaker 3: happen if that were the case. But well, those are
Speaker 3: my two burning questions I wanted to know what game
Speaker 3: show Jerry would be on, and I wanted to know
Speaker 3: what was a secer for. So now I'm fulfilled. Thank
Speaker 3: you guys, thank you so much. Yeah, well, what else
Speaker 3: is going on in our lives? We just got back
Speaker 3: from Italy.
Speaker 2: We did which we need to talk about. We also
Speaker 2: need to talk about The Bachelor. I finished five minutes
Speaker 2: before we started, and I have so many thoughts about it.
Speaker 3: Yes, and we'll get into Italy on been there, Dean
Speaker 3: that so we can just save that.
Speaker 2: For And it wasn't like spectacling. Hey, come on, oh
Speaker 2: my gosh, it was spectacular.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 3: You have to tune in for that episode. Let's talk
Speaker 3: about Bachelor. So we watched Bachelor, well Kaylyn and I
Speaker 3: watch it separately. But the finale happened this week, Joey
Speaker 3: spoiler alert. If you don't want spoilers, turn the podcast
Speaker 3: off now. I've warned you don't get mad at us.
Speaker 3: I understand some people will lit to watch ken The
Speaker 3: winner was Kelsey, Yes, the winner was Jared. Have you
Speaker 3: seen it? Yeah? Okay, it was. It was a good finale.
Speaker 2: I have to say, best finale I've ever seen from
Speaker 2: the Bachelor.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was so good.
Speaker 3: It was great.
Speaker 6: I was.
Speaker 3: I mean, I granted I fast forwarded through like the
Speaker 3: family visits and all the dates. I just waited for
Speaker 3: every like live interaction.
Speaker 2: But I thought it was the best menale I've ever seen.
Speaker 2: But the ending was just a little weird. It's like,
Speaker 2: and is our next bachelorette, Daisy? Let's bring Daisy out? No,
Speaker 2: actually it's not. Is our next bachelor? Let's work out.
Speaker 3: Let's get to that in a second, yea, because I
Speaker 3: think we need to build up to that first. So
Speaker 3: we saw Joey pick Kelsey, we saw well first, I
Speaker 3: guess we saw Daisy say hey, I know you're not
Speaker 3: going to pick me. I'm out of here. Power move? Yes,
Speaker 3: how do we feel about that?
Speaker 2: Okay, this is I mean, I have to fast forward
Speaker 2: and everyone's seen it. So this is what I'm so
Speaker 2: mad about. I finished it thirty minutes ago. How is
Speaker 2: Daisy not the bachelorette? And maybe it seems like she
Speaker 2: turned it down and she wasn't ready, but she is
Speaker 2: the most likable character we have ever had on this show.
Speaker 2: I'm certain of it. Like such a power move? Do
Speaker 2: you no such a power move to know to go
Speaker 2: and go to Kelsey and just like fill her in
Speaker 2: and make her feel comfortable and confident going into the proposal.
Speaker 2: Making Joey feel comfortable he's like, She's like, you don't
Speaker 2: have to break up with me. I'm going to leave,
Speaker 2: like I know it's not me and I hope you're happy.
Speaker 2: Is incredible.
Speaker 3: Also, like the intuition on Daisy's part is pretty impressive.
Speaker 3: She could feel Joey kind of pulling away on their date.
Speaker 3: And then she had like give credit to the girls here,
Speaker 3: because if they weren't so close and such good friends,
Speaker 3: Daisy never would have felt comfortable enough to go to
Speaker 3: Kelsey knowing that Kelsey would have been receiving of her
Speaker 3: being there in the first place. So their friendship I
Speaker 3: think is top notch. And then for Daisy to have
Speaker 3: the intuition or the feeling to ask Kelsey about it
Speaker 3: like he wasn't really giving in the affirmations that I
Speaker 3: was needing, and Kelsey being honest with Daisy about all
Speaker 3: that stuff, Like it was Daisy obviously at the end
Speaker 3: of the day doing that thing with Joey, like taking
Speaker 3: that plunge and saying what she said, but everyone, specifically
Speaker 3: Kelsey and Daisy are also to be given credit because
Speaker 3: they have such a good friendship. Daisy knew that She's
Speaker 3: comfortable talking to Kelsey about that. So I think they
Speaker 3: all deserve a lot of credit there for sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think they're both amazing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was. It was crazy. I'm trying to
Speaker 3: think if I was in that position as like the
Speaker 3: final two, and I knew, like in my on my season,
Speaker 3: Brian won that season. If it was me and Brian,
Speaker 3: I don't think in a million years I could go
Speaker 3: to Brian's room and be like, hey, man, how's your
Speaker 3: how's your last day?
Speaker 2: They don't.
Speaker 3: I don't think I could have. No, well, probably just
Speaker 3: because like the competition thing probably would have gotten the
Speaker 3: best of me and Brian and I weren't super good
Speaker 3: friends on the season, and not that we were bad
Speaker 3: on bad terms. Yeah, if it was Peter, I probably
Speaker 3: could see myself doing it, But it was it wasn't.
Speaker 2: So would you be able to Jared?
Speaker 1: Uh No? Nor would I want to. I am just
Speaker 1: an old cynical man, That's all I am. So watching this,
Speaker 1: I was like, well, I mean, I get it, I
Speaker 1: get it. It's not I love the franchise, I love
Speaker 1: the Bachelor so much, but it was just like they
Speaker 1: were holding hands together. I was doing a watch party
Speaker 1: at Audrey's and when Kelsey and Daisy hugged, everybody clapped,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, shut up, my god, this is
Speaker 1: so ridiculous. What if Daisy was wrong. I get it,
Speaker 1: she had an intuition. What if she was wrong. Joey
Speaker 1: was like, no, I was gonna pick you.
Speaker 2: It's really awkward.
Speaker 1: Now it's super awkward, and I just don't get why
Speaker 1: you would go so far. I mean, listen, good for her,
Speaker 1: she got it right. I'm not like hating on Daisy.
Speaker 1: I agree. I think Daisy should be Bachelorette, but I'm
Speaker 1: assuming that she said no to it because I with
Speaker 1: all the love in my heart for Jen. You know,
Speaker 1: Jen is beautiful. She seems very nice. I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know. It's just kind of like, I mean, I
Speaker 1: think the season's inn we'll see, like, we'll see how
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna do well. I mean, it
Speaker 1: feels like it feels like you had two women in
Speaker 1: Daisy Maria that people were like one hundred percent behind.
Speaker 1: It was like the I this is must see TV.
Speaker 1: If one of these people are the Bachelorette and then
Speaker 1: they were like, all right, we know that, like you've
Speaker 1: been pining for Maria or Daisy and it's gonna be Jen.
Speaker 1: And then everybody's like, oh okay. And I feel like
Speaker 1: I don't want Gen to get any hate. Jen deserves
Speaker 1: no hate for this, but it would be honestly, it would,
Speaker 1: you know it. I it's just like, oh, all right.
Speaker 1: I just feel like a lot of people aren't gonna
Speaker 1: watch now, not because they don't love Jen, but they're
Speaker 1: just like, the whole reason you pick someone from the
Speaker 1: previous season is because you're like, you're invested in their
Speaker 1: story and and like you said, so many people are
Speaker 1: invested in Daisy and invested in Maria, and it's like, oh, man,
Speaker 1: like I want to see these people on my TV
Speaker 1: screen again.
Speaker 2: They didn't show a second of Jen's personality on the season,
Speaker 2: so it's like they kind of shot themselves in the foot.
Speaker 2: But I saw on TikTok that this girl DMed another
Speaker 2: contestant I can't remember her name, and she's like, I
Speaker 2: wanted it to be you or Maria. I'm so disappointed,
Speaker 2: And the girl DMed her back and she said Maria
Speaker 2: turned it down. So if this is true, then Maria
Speaker 2: and potentially Daisy both turned it down, which is an
Speaker 2: odd choice. And I don't think we've seen that. And
Speaker 2: I don't know why they would.
Speaker 3: I don't know why they would either if I was
Speaker 3: Daisy and Maria or Maria not both of them obviously,
Speaker 3: And you get off the show with you know, you're
Speaker 3: at the height of your popularity, you have the pick
Speaker 3: of the whole world, or you have thirty guys that
Speaker 3: ABC chooses for you. I think that maybe that's their
Speaker 3: their motive, maybe, like, come on, you're gonna tell me
Speaker 3: that there isn't like some greade a cash sliding into
Speaker 3: Daisy's DMS right now that she wouldn't have met if
Speaker 3: she became the Bachelorette.
Speaker 2: Maybe, and yeah, but it's also hard to turn down
Speaker 2: like one one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 3: Well, that's just the front that you get paid to.
Speaker 2: It's right, and then potentially dancing dollars, but the stars
Speaker 2: and all this stuff, like it's it's hard to turn
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's it's weird.
Speaker 3: I could see Daisy on Dancing with a Star.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I like that.
Speaker 1: I don't think that they turned it down. If Daisy
Speaker 1: and Maria turned it down because they were hopeful about
Speaker 1: the men they would meet outside of the show, I
Speaker 1: really don't believe that. I don't think that they turned
Speaker 1: it down because they didn't want They were like, oh,
Speaker 1: I can only choose thirty men when I can choose
Speaker 1: from four billion men if I don't go on the show.
Speaker 1: I would imagine that it's much more about the contract
Speaker 1: the money, because let's be honest, now that the show
Speaker 1: kind of pumped itself back up and these contestants are
Speaker 1: getting followings, you know, like there's money on the table
Speaker 1: right now that they would have to say no to
Speaker 1: if they signed a contract with ABC, and you know
Speaker 1: ABC doesn't care about that stuff too. They have three people,
Speaker 1: let's say in this case it was Daisy, Maria and Jen.
Speaker 1: They're offering them all probably the same amount. I want
Speaker 1: to say, eighty two one hundred thousand dollars is just
Speaker 1: a guess. They don't care, like it's all this.
Speaker 3: Same to them. At the end of the day, their
Speaker 3: story is going to be the same. They've got an
Speaker 3: incredible woman that they're going to be able to, you know,
Speaker 3: show around with thirty guys Maria, Daisy or Jen, it
Speaker 3: doesn't really make that much of a difference to the show.
Speaker 3: From a fan standpoint, yes, obviously we want Daisy or
Speaker 3: Maria just because they made us the big biggest impact.
Speaker 3: But from the show's standpoint, they're like, well, we just
Speaker 3: want a beautiful girl here to be the bachelorette for us,
Speaker 3: and the storylines are going to be, you know, the
Speaker 3: same enough to a certain degree to not really have
Speaker 3: that much of an impact on it.
Speaker 2: So I just checked Maria's at five or six hundred thousand,
Speaker 2: Daisies at seven hundred thousand. I wonder too, if they
Speaker 2: got managers and their managers were like, you guys are
Speaker 2: so loved right now and you're going to be in
Speaker 2: a contract for another year and a half. Like maybe
Speaker 2: that's it too, Like maybe they signed with you.
Speaker 3: Don't think so, I don't think so, but possibly, I mean,
Speaker 3: you know, you probably no better than I would.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know. But also for them,
Speaker 2: if they were to get off the show, realize they
Speaker 2: have all this love and have the hindsight to be like,
Speaker 2: if I were the lead, it could go a different way.
Speaker 2: And foresight, Thank you, foresight not hindsight. That's incredible because
Speaker 2: I know on previous seasons people were so so loved.
Speaker 3: I'll do anything to be the Bachelor bachelorette.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but like even you, you were so loved and
Speaker 2: you went on Paradise m and things didn't go great,
Speaker 2: thank you, but they eventually did. And there are other
Speaker 2: characters who go on Paradise and then it's like, you
Speaker 2: kind of shot yourself on the foot by going on
Speaker 2: this show because people loved you so much.
Speaker 3: It's hard to have foresight like that when you're being
Speaker 3: thrown one hundred thousand dollars your way. So if that
Speaker 3: is the case, props to them. Because when we've talked
Speaker 3: about this on the podcast before, when they came to
Speaker 3: me to be the Bachelor, probably just as a backup plan,
Speaker 3: I called my brothers. I was like, hey, I don't
Speaker 3: think I should do this, but like, what do you
Speaker 3: guys think? And They're like, you'd be so stupid to
Speaker 3: turn this down. And I was like, yeah, you're right,
Speaker 3: I'll do it. And then obviously it didn't end up
Speaker 3: happening that way. But my foresight was just I just
Speaker 3: saw the dollar sign and I was like, yeah, I'll
Speaker 3: do it.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's so hard to turn down. And then also
Speaker 2: the fame and the potential shows after and all that stuff,
Speaker 2: and then your husband. I think the husband is like.
Speaker 3: Get married. I totally forgot about that.
Speaker 2: I think that's very far down the line. Also, I
Speaker 2: do feel bad for Jen because it feels like she's
Speaker 2: just their choice.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 2: No, I know, but like if people are coming out
Speaker 2: and saying that they said no to the position, then
Speaker 2: it's it's like it doesn't Probably can't feel great for giving.
Speaker 3: So much stock into the fact that people are saying
Speaker 3: that Daisy and Marie bol said no to the to
Speaker 3: the show.
Speaker 2: But I do think that Jen is so insanely beautiful.
Speaker 2: I am super bummed that we didn't get to see
Speaker 2: her personality at all on the show, Like I felt
Speaker 2: like she we got to see her here and there,
Speaker 2: but you know, the stars of the show were Maria
Speaker 2: and Daisy.
Speaker 3: And Joey and Kelsey.
Speaker 1: I do put stock in that Daisy and Maria said
Speaker 1: no Maria, I don't know, but it just I mean,
Speaker 1: the show itself made it very clear that Daisy said
Speaker 1: no by bringing her out and saying that I'm not
Speaker 1: ready to find love. I mean that was ABC making
Speaker 1: it known to the entire audience that Daisy said no,
Speaker 1: that Dais he didn't want to be a bachelorette. So
Speaker 1: like at best, Jen was second place in terms of
Speaker 1: like choosing, but let's say this, like, you know, for
Speaker 1: my using my season as a reference. Peter kind of
Speaker 1: did the same thing. He's like, I don't think this
Speaker 1: timeline is realistic for me to get engaged to someone.
Speaker 1: And I do know that there were I mean, I guess,
Speaker 1: I don't know, but just through the you know, through
Speaker 1: the grapevine that I heard was that he was in
Speaker 1: talks to be the bachelor, but it ended up not happening.
Speaker 1: And I think one of the reasons it didn't happen
Speaker 1: was because the show had just kind of exposed, not exposed,
Speaker 1: but like put on this platform that he wasn't willing
Speaker 1: to work on the timeline of the show. And so
Speaker 1: it's kind of the same situation with Daisy. If she
Speaker 1: can't you know, find love with Joey at the end
Speaker 1: of the show and she's still searching for love, maybe
Speaker 1: the format for maybe like if they made her the
Speaker 1: bachelor at Daisy, then it would be them like kind
Speaker 1: of admitting that they're just like forcing it instead of
Speaker 1: giving her the timeline that she needs.
Speaker 3: To get well.
Speaker 2: No, because she was like, I'm not ready, like I'm
Speaker 2: finally good place in my life, like I want to
Speaker 2: focus on myself and my family and my friends.
Speaker 3: Maybe she was just saying that because she didn't get
Speaker 3: offered the role.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm thinking with both her and Maria. I'm like,
Speaker 2: are you guys saying this because you didn't get offered
Speaker 2: it or you both turned it down?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 1: I would give stock to that if she said it
Speaker 1: on her Instagram. ABC brought her out right before they
Speaker 1: announced Jen as the Bachelorette. They said, hey, we know
Speaker 1: that you are waiting to announce for the announcer of
Speaker 1: the Bachelorette before we do that. Literally seconds before Jen
Speaker 1: came out, they were like, hey, Daisy, come on out
Speaker 1: for a second. And then it was like okay, So
Speaker 1: they're asking Daisy if she's ready to find in love,
Speaker 1: if she thinks she can find it in this in
Speaker 1: this environment, and she just said no, that she didn't
Speaker 1: want to or she can't regardless. I just I don't
Speaker 1: think it. It wasn't like it to me that Daisy
Speaker 1: was trying to overcompensate for the fact, like, no, I
Speaker 1: didn't want it. I didn't want it. Like if somebody
Speaker 1: posted that on their Instagram, it was like like answered
Speaker 1: a question like yeah, they offered it to me, but
Speaker 1: I said no, I'm like okay, whatever, Boddy.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But the fact that ABC was like, Daisy, come on
Speaker 1: out here, talk to Jesse, and then you, Daisy, are
Speaker 1: gonna help Jesse announce Jen as the bachelorette. My only
Speaker 1: imagination the reason they did that was because they knew
Speaker 1: that everybody wanted Daisy to be the bachelorette, or they
Speaker 1: knew that everybody would want Daisy as the bachelorette as
Speaker 1: soon as they saw the finale, so they were like, okay,
Speaker 1: well Daisy said no, So Daisy, are you okay coming
Speaker 1: out so people know that we wanted it to be you,
Speaker 1: but you said no.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: I can't wait for them to come to iHeart Events
Speaker 2: and get to pick their brain.
Speaker 6: I'm so excited learn all their secrets.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it'd be funny if they were like, now that
Speaker 3: Daisy's down here, Daisy, do you want to call Maria
Speaker 3: down here? They bring Maria down. Hey, Maria, is there
Speaker 3: anything you want to tell us no, should we announce
Speaker 3: the next bachelorret.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine Maria said no.
Speaker 2: Though I know that one feels weird, I.
Speaker 1: Can't imagine that it really does. That makes me feel
Speaker 1: like they didn't want her.
Speaker 3: It probably would have been hard for them to get
Speaker 3: like a visa for for Maria, you know, because she's Canadian.
Speaker 2: But Caitlin Pristo got.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but visas are hard to get these days. Maybe
Speaker 3: they're saving Maria for the Canadian Bachelorette. No chance, No,
Speaker 3: I know you're right. I don't think that's all.
Speaker 1: I'm excited for Jen. I think she's great.
Speaker 3: She's not my type personally, but I'm sure she's gonna
Speaker 3: find a lot of guys that are interested in her.
Speaker 2: She is exactly Dean's type.
Speaker 3: Oh really, she's not the only person that's my type.
Speaker 3: Is sitting right across from you right now, that's right,
Speaker 3: that's right.
Speaker 1: Don't ever forget it. Yeah, I feel bad for Jen
Speaker 1: because you know, unfortunately, what comes with the role of
Speaker 1: being the lead is well, ninety percent of it is incredible,
Speaker 1: right where it's this You get so much love and
Speaker 1: you have this opportunity and it's amazing. But of course
Speaker 1: there's gonna be ten percent. We're not even like people
Speaker 1: are saying mean things about you, but they're just talking
Speaker 1: factually about the show, where it's like, clearly Daisy said no,
Speaker 1: so yes, unfortunately, Jen, it seems like you were ABC
Speaker 1: or mz k's second choice, which is okay.
Speaker 3: I don't think Jen care is even a little bit
Speaker 3: if I hope not. If they again, I can only
Speaker 3: bring it. That's not Jen's fault, right, And.
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that Jen isn't incredible because she is,
Speaker 1: Like if it it like looking at Jen and then
Speaker 1: I honestly I don't know anything about her, so like,
Speaker 1: I'm sure she has a great personality, but obviously like
Speaker 1: looking at Jen, you're like, yeah.
Speaker 3: She's beautiful.
Speaker 1: She like there are gonna be thousands of men pining
Speaker 1: after her, let alone thirty.
Speaker 3: I don't know if, like I can only speak from
Speaker 3: my experience, if they did end up picking me at
Speaker 3: the end of the day for Bachelor, and they even
Speaker 3: told me explicitly, They're like, yeah, we were gonna have
Speaker 3: Ari be the Bachelor, but we but he said no,
Speaker 3: And then we're gonna ask Peter, but he said no,
Speaker 3: and so now you're the Bachelor. I still I would
Speaker 3: still be like, hell yeah, hell yeah, I'm.
Speaker 2: Sure it stings just to hear what people are saying,
Speaker 2: and people be like the huge Daisy and Maria fans
Speaker 2: just be disappointed that it's not. But I just want
Speaker 2: to say that hopefully the producers and whoever's by her
Speaker 2: side or in her ear, just to let her know
Speaker 2: this happens every single season. People are always disappointed because
Speaker 2: people have different fan bases, and in a week, people
Speaker 2: are gonna forget about it. They're gonna watch her season,
Speaker 2: they're gonna fall in love with her, so it's going
Speaker 2: to pass.
Speaker 3: I disagree again, bringing it back to my experience.
Speaker 2: Bringing it back to me.
Speaker 3: If I became Bachelor and I saw every comment on
Speaker 3: every Instagram post or whatever saying I wish Peter was
Speaker 3: the Bachelor. Dean doesn't deserve it, it should have been Peter,
Speaker 3: I would have been like, yeah, coming it me too.
Speaker 3: I've been like, I agree, Peter definitely should have been
Speaker 3: the Bachelor.
Speaker 1: But he's not.
Speaker 3: Bitch, I'm the Bachelor. I am the Bachelor. I agree
Speaker 3: Peter would have been a better choice, but you got me,
Speaker 3: so you're stuck with me.
Speaker 2: Oh you also are a rare breot of human.
Speaker 3: But you know, give Jen some credit. She's the first
Speaker 3: Asian American bachelorette or not that she's bachelor, but the
Speaker 3: first lead. I guess we could say. So that's pretty
Speaker 3: awesome for her. I don't want to take like I
Speaker 3: feel like even talking about it is kind of taking
Speaker 3: her shine away a little bit.
Speaker 2: No, but that's what I'm saying. This happens every single season. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like people are always disappointed by the choice in some capacity.
Speaker 3: We upset about Joey being chosen. I think we could
Speaker 3: probably I mean not us personally, but like us as
Speaker 3: a as a group collective.
Speaker 2: I'm sure there were people that were mad that other
Speaker 2: people weren't chosen. But I'm just saying, like people are
Speaker 2: going to be so obsessed with her. She is so stunning,
Speaker 2: and I've seen like little quirks here and there on
Speaker 2: her announcement and her little like funny things that she
Speaker 2: did on the season. So I'm excited to see her
Speaker 2: personality more and she's going to be amazing. Yeah, it's
Speaker 2: not taking away her shine.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, I know, But but do you see
Speaker 3: where I'm coming from when I say really, I don't know,
Speaker 3: I think she's going to be great. Like I said,
Speaker 3: I don't even think she gives up. I mean, I
Speaker 3: guess I'm saying that because I wouldn't. I don't think
Speaker 3: she cares that. People think it should have been Maria or.
Speaker 2: I would have or day if it were me and
Speaker 2: I was chosen, and they're like, we asked Tannah Brown,
Speaker 2: she said no, We asked Iana God when she said no,
Speaker 2: we asked Titius.
Speaker 3: She said, you'd be like, what the hell do they
Speaker 3: know that? I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'd be like, wait, should I say no to.
Speaker 3: Part be part of the cool girls? Click? No, Yeah,
Speaker 3: but you would.
Speaker 2: They'll be so happy, I guess at the OGE that
Speaker 2: makes me feel good. But then everyone coming out and
Speaker 2: saying they said no, now everyone knows, like I would
Speaker 2: feel weird.
Speaker 6: I would, I mean, but I would still be excited.
Speaker 2: Obviously.
Speaker 3: The thing, too, is like if Daisy and Marie didn't
Speaker 3: say no, like if they just simply weren't asked or
Speaker 3: they were the backup plans, then it's so messed up
Speaker 3: that people are putting this narrative out there that they
Speaker 3: did say no, you know, like because they're then they're
Speaker 3: explicitly trying to to dole the shine of gen a
Speaker 3: little bit if they're lying about that or making it
Speaker 3: up and saying that they said no, but they really didn't,
Speaker 3: and they're just kind of pulling that out of their ass.
Speaker 2: Also, there's a chance that, like because they interviewed three
Speaker 2: to four to five people, there's a chance that they
Speaker 2: were interviewed and they were just like, I don't want it.
Speaker 2: There's a chance that they were never actually offered it right.
Speaker 3: Or offered it. But to Jared's point, like Daisy could
Speaker 3: have asked for like, you know, three hundred grand or
Speaker 3: something like that. Like Tyler Cameron, for instance, I think
Speaker 3: didn't he ask for some exorbitory four million And they
Speaker 3: chose Peter and Peter was great. That's a that's a problem.
Speaker 2: Peter's season was great.
Speaker 3: That's a prime example. Like everyone wanted Tyler, we were
Speaker 3: given Peter. Peter was still entertaining and so much fun
Speaker 3: to watch as a bachelor.
Speaker 2: Everyone wanted Hannah Godwin on our season and they got
Speaker 2: Hannah Brown and she was like the highest rating bachelor
Speaker 2: at ever.
Speaker 3: Here go.
Speaker 2: What they're doing, Jen, It's gonna be great.
Speaker 3: That's a good point. Yeah, everyone wanted to either you
Speaker 3: or Handa g.
Speaker 6: Right, not really me, Handa g Oh, let's come on either.
Speaker 3: You were Energy Hanner Energy and got stuck with Hannah
Speaker 3: Brown and Hannah Brown season was one of the most
Speaker 3: you know, interesting watching.
Speaker 2: The most Well, I guess in.
Speaker 1: This da who is the second on your season? Hana
Speaker 1: Gi Energy Energy and then taysher g and you were third? Oh,
Speaker 1: Tasha Cassie.
Speaker 2: I was fourth. I got dumped after they met my family.
Speaker 1: Cassie, and then Tasha was third.
Speaker 2: Yep, he kind of like dumped everyone at once. So
Speaker 2: who's to say who's second and third?
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's interesting, Yeah, I guess, yeah, I guess
Speaker 3: all that. To say the producers know what they're doing,
Speaker 3: we can't quite. I mean, we can question it obviously,
Speaker 3: that's kind of what we're here for. But they obviously
Speaker 3: have a system in place that's been working for them.
Speaker 3: They somehow revitalized a franchise that seemed like it was
Speaker 3: dead directly so I.
Speaker 2: Thought it was for sure dead. This is the best
Speaker 2: season I've seen in a while, and I keep saying
Speaker 2: it the best finality I've ever seen. Yeah, Jared disagrees,
Speaker 2: But I liked the cheese.
Speaker 1: I I no, no, I I don't disagree. I am also
Speaker 1: the wrong person to ask because I love the franchise
Speaker 1: so much, but I don't watch a lot of TV.
Speaker 1: I don't watch a lot of reality TV, so I
Speaker 1: haven't like, I don't religiously watch every episode. So the
Speaker 1: idea that I'm going to be the one to tell
Speaker 1: you what makes a good finale is not like I
Speaker 1: can tell you what makes a good play action, you know,
Speaker 1: call on second and seven, But I can. What I
Speaker 1: cannot tell you is you know what makes a good
Speaker 1: finale In The Bachelor, I'm not that guy.
Speaker 2: I think this is my favorite. And then after that,
Speaker 2: Peters was so good. That was wild. He's engaged to
Speaker 2: Hannah and and then he dumps her which was heartbreaking
Speaker 2: and hands and was so strong in that. Then he
Speaker 2: goes to Maddie, but then he ends up with Kelly
Speaker 2: and the mom was the little nuts.
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: We wouldn't have gotten out and tell oh yeah, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that was great that Peter finale.
Speaker 3: What other finales are really good? I mean watching the
Speaker 3: finale this time, it was funny watching it and then
Speaker 3: you get like clips in the bottom of corner of
Speaker 3: like the crowd reaction because it kind of like it's
Speaker 3: like it's like a laugh track. It's kind of telling
Speaker 3: you when there's a joker, like how to feel in
Speaker 3: certain ways. When they were shown in the suv together
Speaker 3: going to the engagement and they like cut to the
Speaker 3: crowd and everyone's like, oh, I even kind of went.
Speaker 3: I was like, I didn't care at all, but I
Speaker 3: was still abound myself reacting to this situation. I was like,
Speaker 3: oh my god, this is insane. But I was like,
Speaker 3: is it insane? Or am I just reacting in the
Speaker 3: same way that these people are reacting? You know? But no,
Speaker 3: it's good.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like a laugh track. When I watched Sidefeld, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm like, am I laughing because it's really funny? Or
Speaker 1: am I laughing because I hear other people?
Speaker 3: Was that joke funny? Or am I just laughing because
Speaker 3: other people? Have you guys ever seen those Friends clips
Speaker 3: where they take the laugh track out of the show.
Speaker 3: It's so funny because I'm sure it's so they'll say
Speaker 3: these jokes that like aren't funny at all. They're like,
Speaker 3: honestly kind of creepy, and there's no laugh track and
Speaker 3: it just like makes it even worse. And they always
Speaker 3: like pause to wait for the last track to finish
Speaker 3: before they say the next line. So they'll say like
Speaker 3: a joke and then you know, pause for five seconds
Speaker 3: and then like the next person will talk and it's
Speaker 3: pretty funny.
Speaker 2: Huh.
Speaker 3: But good job, Joey. I'm proud of you.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Also, good job Joey.
Speaker 2: It's great to finally have a Bachelor that we don't
Speaker 2: hate at the end of the season. I don't think.
Speaker 2: I don't think Zach was hated at the end of
Speaker 2: his season. I didn't watch too closely. Peter obviously, Clayton obviously, Colton.
Speaker 6: Ari kind of Ari definitely.
Speaker 1: Say it's fine now yeah yeah, yeah yeah at the time.
Speaker 2: But Joey just handled it, handled himself so well.
Speaker 3: That's my boy. I could tell the second I met him.
Speaker 3: I was like, this guy, he's got a special something,
Speaker 3: he's got a special quality to him. Yeah. So good
Speaker 3: job Joey. Congratulations to Kelsey.
Speaker 2: We think that they'll make it, yeah, I do.
Speaker 1: Not that I don't think they'll make it, but like,
Speaker 1: I mean, guys, what are they you know, the odds
Speaker 1: are they won't, But that doesn't mean that they you know,
Speaker 1: I hope they make it.
Speaker 3: Like I'm you know, I'm rooting for rooting for him.
Speaker 3: They're very nice people. My only question mark is Kelsey.
Speaker 3: I've never met Kelsey. I've met I think Jelley will
Speaker 3: make make Jolley will do everything he can to make
Speaker 3: it work.
Speaker 2: I think we can now. But at the wedding, he
Speaker 2: was like so in love and like kept I mean,
Speaker 2: they had to like restrain him from screaming from the rooftops.
Speaker 2: I'm engaged. I'm engaged, Like he just seems from your perspective,
Speaker 2: I didn't talk to Joey that much that he was
Speaker 2: so so in love he was.
Speaker 3: Do you guys know that I was drunk at that wedding? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: But I'm excited to see what happens next for them.
Speaker 3: She seems really sweet. But like I said, I you know,
Speaker 3: it's hard to really make that distinction now because I.
Speaker 2: Hope they do make it. They do seem super in love,
Speaker 2: and I I don't know. I feel like I was
Speaker 2: just so invested in the season, so now I'm invested
Speaker 2: in them as a couple. It's hard when she's so young,
Speaker 2: but how is she? I feel like, she's.
Speaker 6: Like twenty three, but you have no idea.
Speaker 2: No, I'm pretty sure she's twenty three, twenty four maybe,
Speaker 2: But also I was twenty three when I met you.
Speaker 1: And wow, you were twenty three when med Dean.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you were twenty three for all of three days
Speaker 3: when we met.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I turned twenty four when I met him.
Speaker 1: Still twenty four? Yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 3: Kelsey is twenty five, twenty five. Okay, so she's a
Speaker 3: little older than you were. You were twenty two on
Speaker 3: your season of Bachelor twenty three, that's right. Just young girls, man,
Speaker 3: it's crazy twenty three year olds.
Speaker 2: Young girls, man, I'm.
Speaker 3: Telling you, I got it. You got to give them
Speaker 3: credit because you know that's young.
Speaker 6: You got to give them.
Speaker 3: They're getting engaged at five snaps for those girls.
Speaker 2: How old was I when who got engaged?
Speaker 3: Twenty six? Seven, seven, twenty seven? I don't know. We're
Speaker 3: not that young anymore, that's for sure. Ask my back.
Speaker 3: My back will tell you I'm thirty two, for sure.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm excited for gen season. I'm excited the Bachelor
Speaker 2: is finally good again, and it sucks. You know what sucks.
Speaker 2: It's finally good again. I'm invested in these characters for
Speaker 2: the first time in years, and there's no paradise.
Speaker 3: Well, well that's not confirmed yet though it's not confirmed, okay,
Speaker 3: but it feels it feels likely to happen this year.
Speaker 3: What do you think the tagline for gen season is
Speaker 3: going to be. I think it's going to be it's
Speaker 3: gen X or something gen Z gen Z coming.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's gen Z, right gen Z.
Speaker 2: I think so she must be. I'm on the custer.
Speaker 2: Don't anyone younger than me? Gen X is older than us,
Speaker 2: gen X is formal, it's gen Z millennial, and then
Speaker 2: gen X is our.
Speaker 1: Parents, but millennial get in there all the millennium.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the jen alphan now or something like that. Yeah,
Speaker 3: jen A, Now what is Dawson? Do you know?
Speaker 6: Jen a jen a jen I?
Speaker 1: Oh god, Dawson's jen a jen A. That's crazy, So
Speaker 1: we just start all over again.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Wow, it's not like gen double A.
Speaker 3: It's kind of like with when they name storms. You know,
Speaker 3: they go A through Z and then they just go
Speaker 3: back to A. That's crazy. I guess.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I'm looking it up right now real quick. While we're
Speaker 3: on the just well, you know, you guys are talking
Speaker 3: amongst yourselves, which you're not anymore. It is jen Alpha
Speaker 3: twenty tens to mid twenty.
Speaker 2: Twenties, thirteen to twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3: And then Gen Z the Zoomers, and then Millennials gen Y,
Speaker 3: which is the same thing. Gen X was our parents.
Speaker 3: Baby Boomers were maybe our probably our grandparents. And then
Speaker 3: the Silent generation, which was before that.
Speaker 2: Why were they silenced?
Speaker 3: It's a really good question. I think maybe because they
Speaker 3: were born during the Great Depression.
Speaker 2: Oh sad.
Speaker 3: And then the generation before that was the greatest generation.
Speaker 6: I remember hearing that it's a little unfair to.
Speaker 3: Not be the greatest, the greatest generation, and then the
Speaker 3: generation before that was.
Speaker 6: The lost generation, lost, silent and lost.
Speaker 1: Yes, wait, what was the greatest generation?
Speaker 3: Nineteen oh one to nineteen twenty seven?
Speaker 2: Makes them great?
Speaker 3: Wasn't that the Great Depression? Wasn't that the Great Depression
Speaker 3: in the twenties.
Speaker 1: In the Yeah, it's nineteen twenty eight.
Speaker 3: I think it was, oh so that day, which is
Speaker 3: right when the Silent Generation was nineteen twenty eight to
Speaker 3: nineteen forty five.
Speaker 1: I always assumed that the Greatest Generation was called for
Speaker 1: during World War Two, but I guess World War One
Speaker 1: would make sense as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, greatest generation World War One.
Speaker 1: The greatest generation in terms of like, you know, fighting
Speaker 1: for you know what we have now.
Speaker 2: Two was in the forties, which was the silent generation
Speaker 2: or the loss.
Speaker 3: In the which one nineteen forty that's weird. That was
Speaker 3: the silent generation, and.
Speaker 2: That's World War two. And the Great Depression.
Speaker 3: That was like, yeah, nineteen twenty eight to nineteen forty five,
Speaker 3: so the beginning of the Great Depression in the end
Speaker 3: of World War Two.
Speaker 2: That's a really sad generation.
Speaker 3: Well, thankfully they were too young to realize it, but
Speaker 3: their parents must have been gone through it.
Speaker 2: And then that their parents are the greatest.
Speaker 3: Then their parents are the baby boomers. No, no, their
Speaker 3: parents were the greatest, right, there's okay, So that.
Speaker 2: Makes they should be the greatest to go through that.
Speaker 3: That's fair. But like you know, we're naming Generation Alpha
Speaker 3: now we have no idea what they're going to be
Speaker 3: going through in the forties, twenty forties, twenty thirties, whatever.
Speaker 3: It is so interesting, very interesting, Generation Alpha. You're the future, Jena.
Speaker 3: Jena is the future Jena gen Z and Dawson gen
Speaker 3: Z's kind of the more immediate future. Dawson's not really
Speaker 3: going to be doing much until twenty years from now.
Speaker 1: But he doesn't do much as of right now. But
Speaker 1: he is freaking adorable.
Speaker 3: He's really underperforming, dude. He should be. He should be
Speaker 3: solving some of the world's biggest issues.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know what the hell he's waiting for.
Speaker 1: He needs to really start working. How's how's my boy doing?
Speaker 1: How's Dawson? He's awesome. He's just like prime Dawson. It
Speaker 1: was tough for a while, but he talked about the
Speaker 1: highs being highs and the low's being low's because he
Speaker 1: is just a joy to be roun. He's always happy.
Speaker 1: He's just always talking. He's always in a good mood
Speaker 1: and he's just like singing and dancing and he's down.
Speaker 1: I'm like, dust, you want to do this? He goes, yeah, oh,
Speaker 1: all right, cool, and it's just the best he's I
Speaker 1: remember talking to Ari at Chris Harrison's wedding and he
Speaker 1: was like, Oh, it would be awesome if we could
Speaker 1: just fast forward to too.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: He was just talking about being a dad and like
Speaker 1: how tough it is as a when the baby because
Speaker 1: obviously the mother has such an attachment because you know,
Speaker 1: the baby grew inside of her and he was like
Speaker 1: as hol. Once they get to two and they start talking,
Speaker 1: you get to like hang out with your kid. And
Speaker 1: I'm experiencing that now because now it's fun. Like we
Speaker 1: went to the mall on Saturday night, took pictures of
Speaker 1: the Easter Bunny, we got some Auntie Anne's, we walked around,
Speaker 1: we got toy for them, like I love He's just
Speaker 1: sitting there and the smell of those pretzels.
Speaker 3: I just every time I walk by one in the airport,
Speaker 3: no matter what time of day, I'm like, even if
Speaker 3: I'm stuffed from like a big dinner or something, I'm like,
Speaker 3: oh man, those pretzels. I can go for one of
Speaker 3: those right now. Oh the best.
Speaker 1: And he's just sitting next to me and he's eating
Speaker 1: pretzel and he's just so happy. He's just laughing to
Speaker 1: himself because how good that pretzel is. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is it's good stuff. What do you think Joey's
Speaker 1: a sucker for Tennis Kelsey Kelsey?
Speaker 3: Kelsey?
Speaker 1: Joe's a sucker for Kelsey.
Speaker 3: Think Kelsey's a sucker for Joey?
Speaker 6: Yeah you do.
Speaker 1: I don't know she's probably indifferent.
Speaker 3: It's yeah, I'm kidding, it's it's I mean, they're in
Speaker 3: a tough time now. I guess it's probably been tougher
Speaker 3: up until now, but now that they're like public with
Speaker 3: their relationship, they're out of the show. It's easy to
Speaker 3: fall in love on that show, as we all know.
Speaker 3: Now they have to like face the real world and
Speaker 3: see how that all goes. But where they going to live?
Speaker 3: But they gonna move to Los Angeles together?
Speaker 2: Did you even watch the show? They're moving to New Orleans?
Speaker 3: No, they're not. Who the heck wants to.
Speaker 4: Move I know.
Speaker 2: I heard that and I was like, I am shocked.
Speaker 2: And then they're going to try to move to New
Speaker 2: York in the summer.
Speaker 6: She is, she from New Orleans, but crazy that he.
Speaker 2: Would want to move there. I mean, personally, as someone
Speaker 2: who lived in the South, I don't want to go back.
Speaker 2: So I guess I'm the wrong one to talk to.
Speaker 3: But I've been to New Orleans.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Marty Gras probably saw a lot of things.
Speaker 3: Twenty and ten, Marty Gras, I was there. I didn't
Speaker 3: see that many things. It was a fun place. It
Speaker 3: was I did some stuff besides the Marty Grass stuff.
Speaker 3: I had some friends that went to University of Louis
Speaker 3: Zanna Monroe, which is like an hour south or some direction,
Speaker 3: and so we got to experience a little bit of
Speaker 3: like the what it would be like to live there,
Speaker 3: or just exploring without the partying and stuff, and it
Speaker 3: was fun. I couldn't live there personally, but cool.
Speaker 6: Place, cool place.
Speaker 2: New York is cooler in my opinion. But I'm excited
Speaker 2: to see.
Speaker 3: Of many young hot couples moving.
Speaker 2: To New Orleans, New Orleans now. And then they said
Speaker 2: New York in the summer.
Speaker 1: They'll be in New York before we know it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're going to be living in Los Angeles before
Speaker 3: the end of the year.
Speaker 1: In New York, that same thing.
Speaker 3: No, Joey's a warm weather guy.
Speaker 2: Oh, how is he gonna play tennis in New York?
Speaker 3: Well, they played tennis in New York.
Speaker 1: They probably have indoor facilities.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I don't think he's going to be, you know,
Speaker 3: coaching much tennis in the near future.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he'll probably want to play.
Speaker 3: Yeah maybe, but that's gonna do it. For this week's
