Speaker 3: So I heard that you guys used to watch Bachelor,

13
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 3: but it's been a while. Did was this something that

14
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 3: you guys did as a mother daughter thing?

15
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 4: Actually no, I don't think we ever watched it together,

16
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 4: but we didn't discuss it like a few times. But yeah, no,

17
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 4: we never watched it together.

18
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: When was the last time you watched regularly?

19
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 4: Probby the Colton season? What season was that?

20
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 3: Like, Oh, I don't know what that was, but that

21
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 3: was towards you know, that was a great era and

22
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 3: you know, like that's kind of when a lot of

23
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 3: people started falling off after say, Hannah Brown season. Huh,

24
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 3: Hannah season was so great, but then like the COVID

25
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 3: hit and then Matt James nobody knew who he was.

26
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 3: He was fresh, you know, a fresh pick. I just

27
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 3: feel like that's when it started to sure turn a

28
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 3: little bit.

29
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, now we we. I watched it your season. I

30
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 4: watched it like, uh ben Nick, you know, so those

31
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 4: are like the seasons I used to watch. So I'm

32
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 4: excited to watch it again, and obviously with my daughter

33
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 4: being on it, I'm excited to watch her.

34
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 3: Like, is this the most wild thing in the entire world?

35
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 3: Your daughter is the bachelorette?

36
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 4: I know, yes, I'm so excited for her. She actually

37
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 4: gets to go date, which is going to be so

38
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 4: nice for her, just because she really hasn't dated, you know,

39
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 4: like multiple people at multiple times.

40
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, how do you think she is going to deal

41
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 3: with dating, say, thirty men at once.

42
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 4: I don't know, but I would love it, so I

43
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 4: would hope that she would. I got married really young, too,

44
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 4: so I'm excited for her. So I'm just like, she

45
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 4: kind of got married like younger for like I guess

46
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 4: in our world it's she was like an average age.

47
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 4: But so in the Mormon religion, people get married like

48
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 4: right out of high school. Yeah, right out of college.

49
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 4: You know or during college.

50
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 2: So yeah, so.

51
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 3: You guys, you know I will be fully transparent. I've

52
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 3: only seen two episodes of Secret Lives I am. I'm

53
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 3: going to complete though the entire now it'll be soon

54
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 3: three seasons before Taylor's reign as Bachelorette, and I am

55
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 3: enjoying it.

56
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 2: I just started like two days ago.

57
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 3: This is like my my bachelor slash like pop culture homework.

58
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 2: Now.

59
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 3: The thing is from what I've seen and what I've

60
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 3: heard from future episodes that I haven't seen yet, is

61
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 3: that you guys have you have a very close relationship,

62
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 3: but like you have your ups and downs and you're

63
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 3: definitely not sure about like her man Picker.

64
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 4: Oh, she's not a good man. Picker isn't.

65
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 3: So what kind of guys do you hope that ABC

66
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 3: has cast for her?

67
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 4: Well? I have talked to the casting director oh all

68
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 4: the time. I mean we're on the phone all the time.

69
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 4: She's probably thinks I'm crazy, but and I might be

70
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 4: a little bit every now and then, But I just

71
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 4: want somebody who's like that believes in God kind of

72
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 4: you know, like believes in God or has some kind

73
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 4: of like belief other than you know, something like higher power.

74
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 2: Okay, So it does not need to be more.

75
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 4: It doesn't have to be Mormon. No, I mean, obviously

76
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 4: I would like that, but it's not. That's not something

77
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 4: I guess. There's so many great people that aren't Mormon.

78
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 4: Like my father wasn't an LDS guy, and he couldver

79
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 4: like years later, but he was a great guy and

80
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 4: so and probably one of the best people. You know.

81
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 4: So a lot of the people that I meet are

82
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 4: outside the religion. So she's like, I'm down to go,

83
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 4: you know, go to some other religion or whatever, or

84
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 4: just just a good guy. Just somebody who's like, obviously

85
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 4: you still want him to be like decent looking, you know,

86
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,600
Speaker 4: because you want that as a feel and I'm sure

87
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 4: she does too, but just somebody who's like really humble

88
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 4: and caring and puts her like in front of them.

89
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 4: And her husband was her first husband was like that,

90
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 4: So I guess she did pick someone, you know, good,

91
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 4: But yes, I think she gets she gets bored, so

92
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 4: that's the thing. It's just like, and then she meets Dakota,

93
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 4: who's just this crazy they're just chaotic, just toxic relationship.

94
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 4: So but those are the kind of guys she like,

95
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 4: really like, so I don't know, we'll see.

96
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 3: We need somebody who's going to keep her attention for

97
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 3: a long time. I have to ask, because just watching

98
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 3: the first two episodes.

99
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, why.

100
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 3: Do I feel like she just like had no care

101
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 3: in getting pregnant? Like it was like did she Yes?

102
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 3: It was like she was just like, oh, yeah, if

103
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 3: it happens, it happens, and she just it was almost

104
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 3: like she secretly kind of wanted to get pregnant out

105
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 3: of Woodlock.

106
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 4: Oh absolutely, like yes. I mean I got so much

107
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:37,359
Speaker 4: crap for like just saying that that was stupid, you

108
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 4: know that word like calling, but I got so much

109
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 4: hate from it. But it was like they don't know

110
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 4: the history, they don't know what's going on, and so

111
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 4: when I said that, it's just like you barely know

112
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 4: this guy and you want to get pregnant. And now

113
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 4: she was pregnant.

114
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 2: But that's all was so weird about it, is.

115
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 3: That like she definitely didn't feel secure in that relationship.

116
00:05:59,680 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 4: She did.

117
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 3: I didn't even think it was I don't think she

118
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 3: thought it was going to be long term. But she

119
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 3: was just like, yeah, if I get pregnant, I get pregnant. Yeah,

120
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 3: so I guess like she just loves having children. Yeah, oh,

121
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 3: I don't know.

122
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 4: She's a great mom, that's for sure. And she doesn't

123
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 4: mind having obviously kids because she still wants more kids.

124
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 4: And I'm just like, you want another you know, another

125
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 4: baby daddy, But she's she does.

126
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 2: All right, so another baby daddy? Are we thinking?

127
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 3: Like, if you between you and the casting director, do

128
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 3: you want him, her possible fiance after all this, to

129
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 3: have kids or not have kids?

130
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 4: You know, it really doesn't matter. I think that he

131
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 4: can relate more if he does have kids, just you know,

132
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 4: you know, if he has kids, he already knows how

133
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 4: it works and what the plan is, and maybe possibly

134
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 4: he would want another kid, you know. But I really

135
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 4: want her to be like very sick here and know

136
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 4: what she really wants this time. I just hope she

137
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:03,479
Speaker 4: doesn't keep repeating that's toxic. I don't know, mess of

138
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 4: her life.

139
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 2: We all hope.

140
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 3: So we also, I feel like she's grown a lot

141
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 3: since the first season of Secret Lives as well.

142
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 4: She has, Yes, she is getting better. She's had a

143
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 4: lot of therapy. She's just gone through so much. Her

144
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 4: life has just been such a mess for the last

145
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 4: few years, and so now I think that's probably why

146
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 4: she got pregnant. She's like, well, what's one more kid?

147
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 4: What's the big deal? You know, Like, but then she

148
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 4: doesn't think about it long term, and so I'm hoping

149
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 4: she goes in and really like find somebody that's great.

150
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 4: But then you don't have that much time, right Ashley,

151
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 4: because you're just in there for so many weeks, and

152
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 4: it's like, is that really possible?

153
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 3: I always think that the main show is harder to

154
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 3: find somebody than Paradise because it's just eight weeks and

155
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 3: you have such little quality time with these people, whereas

156
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 3: like in Paradise it is a shorter amount of time,

157
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 3: it's like three weeks, wow, but you're spending day after

158
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 3: day with the person that you're dating, like twenty four

159
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 3: to seven, So it is different. But we are wishing

160
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 3: her luck and I'm so curious, how are they going

161
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 3: to film this season? Because the only other single mom

162
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 3: Bachelorette that we've had, Emily Maynard, they actually worked with

163
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 3: her and filmed in her hometown in North Carolina. They

164
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 3: never filmed in California. What is the plan with Taylor?

165
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 4: She'll be in California, so that will film a couple

166
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 4: weeks there. I think they'll be some I'm thinking a

167
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 4: couple weeks here is the plan, but I don't know.

168
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 4: And then I don't know where the others.

169
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 2: Okay sitting, So a little bit of both.

170
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 4: Yes, uh huh. And so her son will be with

171
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 4: her majority of.

172
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 2: Time, the oldest one or the youngest one the baby.

173
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, so the other kids are in school, so that's

174
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 4: just not going to be realistic. And so, but yeah,

175
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 4: they are going to allow her to see her kids.

176
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 4: That was a stipulation for her to go on. And

177
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 4: then the baby will be with her some of them,

178
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 4: like some of the time.

179
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 2: Will there be a nanny with her or will you

180
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 2: be with her?

181
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, so a nanny and myself will be like traveling

182
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 4: back and forth. But we're kind of just trying to

183
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 4: see how it's gonna all work out. And so at

184
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 4: least the baby can see her every now and then

185
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 4: at least, you know, so that's the plan.

186
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 2: Will the baby's fathered Dakota be around.

187
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 4: I'm hoping not. I said that he will mess the

188
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 4: whole thing up for her, like he will sabotage her

189
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 4: whole experience, and so I'm just like, if you can

190
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 4: just keep him away for at least those weeks, there

191
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 4: might be some like hope of her like focusing in

192
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 4: on this, this whole process of dans.

193
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 2: How do you think he would sabotage?

194
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 4: I don't know. I just think, well, I guess if

195
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 4: she can't have contact with him, he might not be

196
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 4: able to. But if he was to, he wanted to.

197
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 2: Be there, he wanted to be there with the baby.

198
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 4: Yes, And so I'm just like, no, like that will

199
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 4: not be good just because she will not be able

200
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 4: to enjoy her time there, and it just wouldn't be good.

201
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 4: I think that never be a disadvantage if she was

202
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 4: to do.

203
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 2: That, perhaps like a distraction for her.

204
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 4: Oh, very distracting, yes.

205
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 3: Because is there still like I know that they I

206
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 3: know that they have had a relationship in which, like

207
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 3: they're still obviously seeing each other a lot because of

208
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 3: the baby.

209
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 2: But isn't there a lot of love still there?

210
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 3: Oh?

211
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 2: Yeah?

212
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 4: She she so loves him and I believe that he

213
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 4: truly loves her. And you'll actually I can't talk about it,

214
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 4: but in the season three you'll you'll see a lot

215
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 4: that went on with him that came out and just

216
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 4: it was not good. And so it made all of

217
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 4: us just, oh my god. I don't know, it's just shocking.

218
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:14,439
Speaker 3: But yes, well, now that's an ABC Hulu relationship here.

219
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 3: Obviously that's one of the reasons that they cast her.

220
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 3: It makes a lot of sense business wise. It also

221
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 3: from a producer's perspective, makes a lot of sense for

222
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 3: Dakota to pop in a bit because it's gonna make

223
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 3: things sloppy.

224
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 2: Do you think that they're gonna involve in the storyline.

225
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 4: No, if so, they haven't told me about it, and

226
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 4: they probably won't because they know.

227
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 2: Like probably not.

228
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 4: They know how I feel, you know, about that whole relationship,

229
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 4: and so they probably are not gonna tell me. So

230
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 4: if so, I will be shocked to what I see it.

231
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 2: Oh, you're gonna be like no, no, no, You'll be

232
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:51,839
Speaker 2: there and you'll be like pushing it away.

233
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 4: Yes. Yes.

234
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 3: What was his initial reaction when he found out she

235
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 3: was a bachelorette.

236
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 4: I guess he was pretty shocked. And I think he's

237
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 4: and like, don't I think he doesn't want her to

238
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 4: go on it. I know he's done videos saying that,

239
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 4: you know, let's like otherwise, But I think that he

240
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 4: doesn't want her to go on it. Obviously he still

241
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 4: loves her. I just don't feel like he loved her

242
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 4: enough or at least I mean, he wouldn't have done

243
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 4: the things that he did, so I don't know, but yeah,

244
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 4: I really I was rooting for him actually, you.

245
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 2: Know, yeah, yeah you would.

246
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 4: I didn't like him at first, and then I grew

247
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 4: to like him because he's one of those guys that

248
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,079
Speaker 4: you just like. He has that charisma, he's a good

249
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 4: looking guy. He's just he's kind of manly, you know,

250
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 4: he came from a farm. He's just like I don't know.

251
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 4: I didn't like him at first, and then I grew

252
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 4: to I just gave him a chance, and then he

253
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 4: just proved me right. So I'm just like, oh, man,

254
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 4: I don't know.

255
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 2: I get it. I totally get it. I have my

256
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 2: sister's boyfriends.

257
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: There's been people that I definitely didn't like and then

258
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 3: I evolved to love them over time. And it's like

259
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 3: crazy where you look back and you're just like, wow,

260
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 3: I can't believe I used to think of you like.

261
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 2: This, and now I think of you like that.

262
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 3: Anyway, So I just need to talk a little bit

263
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 3: more about what you're talking about. With casting director conversations

264
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,959
Speaker 3: like this is so interesting to me that you've even

265
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 3: had a hand in this.

266
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 2: Have they showed you pictures?

267
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 4: No, they haven't. They haven't showed me anything. But I

00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 3: would love to date Taylor.

276
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 4: No, they haven't come into my dms at all, but

Speaker 4: I have just I just know her type. But I'm

00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 4: trying to like weed amount to like they look somewhat decent,

279
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 4: you know. Obviously some of them that have I just

280
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 4: know those guys that are just like good looking in

281

Speaker 4: you're not, you know kind of guy. But yes, I

283
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,679
Speaker 4: send him to one of the casting directors. I mean,

284
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 4: they have like a couple of them because the show

285
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 4: is like, yeah, I think it's going to be so good.

286
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 4: I think their ratings are going to be so high.

287
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 2: Seriously.

288
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 4: I'm hoping they're the highest, of course, because I'm the.

289
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 2: Mom, right, so the high isn't quite some time.

290
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, and so I'm excited for it. So I

291
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 4: don't know, we'll see.

292
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 3: So, speaking of that, what's the reaction been. We know

293
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 3: that it's been mixed. There's a lot of old school

294
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 3: Bachelor fans that have been like, oh, we want people

295
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 3: to be picked from the franchise. Then there's some people

296
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 3: who don't love the fact that there's like sort of

297
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 3: a double standard, you know.

298
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 2: We her the assault, yes, was all over the show yea.

299
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 3: And a lot of people say that if it were

300
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 3: a guy with that past, he would never have been cast.

301
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 2: What what have you and Taylor dealt with over the

302
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 2: past month or so? Emotionally?

303
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 4: It hasn't been that I guess that bad for like

304
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 4: when all of that happened to was it over two

305
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 4: years ago? Yeah, it was really really messy, and I

306
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 4: had so many people come into my dms and just

307
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 4: so much stuff happened. I haven't felt like the hate.

308
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 4: I've seen it online like when I'm wreaking comments, but

309
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 4: they haven't come to me directly this time. Obviously, nobody

310
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 4: was there at that time, they don't know like the

311
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 4: true story. Like I used to even believe like everything

312
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 4: the news had, and you know, there's just so much

313
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 4: that's so not like a lot of lies, like with

314
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 4: even police and with the news, they don't portray everything

315
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 4: that's correct and so and then they make it out

316
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 4: to be like way worse than it really is. Like

317
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 4: she didn't ever like her, her kids were never like

318
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 4: her or anything like that. How like them said just

319
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 4: just like certain things like you know we I mean,

320
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 4: people don't know like yeah, they're like half of the

321
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 4: stuff that really happened. They don't ever go and like

322
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 4: retrack you know, journalism, I guess, and it's just it's

323
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 4: not as real as people think that it is. And

324
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 4: so I kind of like learned a lot throughout that

325
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 4: process with like the whole criminal because I never have

326
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 4: experienced anybody ever going to jail, and my own daughter,

327
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 4: like going to jail was like huge for me, so

328
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 4: and just it was emotional and we just yeah, we

329
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 4: got through it, and I'm just glad that, uh, that

330
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 4: they're giving her that chance, because I do think that people,

331
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 4: great people make mistakes and obviously you know she I mean,

332
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 4: if there wasn't a gun or like weapon or stuff involved. Like,

333
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 4: I think they just took it overboard just because of

334
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 4: she already had millions of followers before you know, all

335
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 4: this happened when she got arrested, And I think that's

336
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 4: why they, like, you know, she was an influencer here

337
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,680
Speaker 4: in Utah and they just took it to the extreme.

338
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 4: I mean, I've talked to plenty of people and even

339
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 4: some judges that have said, like, most people don't get that,

340
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 4: like they usually get like a slap on the wrist,

341
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 4: but since she was an influencer, like, they took it

342
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 4: to I guess like the worst that anybody can possibly get.

343
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 2: Interesting.

344
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I don't know.

345
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 3: So would you say the reaction when you guys did

346
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 3: announce that she was going to be a bachelorette?

347
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 2: Was it positive? Was it mostly positive?

348
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 3: Did she have a good day that day or was

349
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,360
Speaker 3: she overwhelmed by critics?

350
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 4: You know what she was? It was very like sad

351
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 4: because that morning we were so excited, you know, when

352
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 4: the announcement came out, and then the whole thing like

353
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,440
Speaker 4: with Charlie Kirk came.

354
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 2: Out that happened the same day, didn't it.

355
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,239
Speaker 4: Yes, it happened the same day, so we were like

356
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 4: so excited in the morning and then after like twelve

357
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 4: o'clock when we heard everything and this is in Utah too,

358
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 4: so yeah, it was even more. It was she turned off,

359
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 4: like she turned off her phone and she was she

360
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,880
Speaker 4: couldn't be excited about it, just because like, how could

361
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 4: you be excited about anybody, regardless of what side you're

362
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 4: on that this happened. And his little kids were, you

363
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 4: know there, and that was just devastating for anybody to

364
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,959
Speaker 4: go through. And so our whole family was just like,

365
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 4: oh it was It was just sad, so one emotion

366
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 4: to another. So yeah, it just yeah, she couldn't be

367
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 4: She didn't want to post. She was just like, this

368
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 4: is this is not the time I wouldn't you know,

369
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 4: so and she like honored him, you know, and so yeah,

370
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 4: but that was kind of Yeah, we were super excited

371
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 4: until that, and it was actually a heavy week I

372
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,879

409
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 3: like a hometown situation or you think that she had

410
00:20:58,359 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 3: introduced more than four guys?

411
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 4: No, I think probably the the the last few for sure. Okay, yeah,

412
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 4: I haven't really talked to her about it, but yes,

413
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 4: I would. I know that she wants to introduce them. Yes.

414
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,439
Speaker 3: Do you see her being engaged at the end of this.

415
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 3: Do you think that's going to be a natural thing

416
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 3: for her to be able to.

417
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 2: Do with her?

418
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,119
Speaker 4: Probably with me there was a whole different story, Like No,

419
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 4: I would think that.

420
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 3: No.

421
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 4: Like but her, she she likes them fast, and so

422
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 4: it's just like I'm like, please take your time, you

423
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:35,640
Speaker 4: know with these guys. I don't know, We'll see. It's

424
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 4: just she jumps into everything so quickly. I just I

425
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 4: don't know I would think that by her age, because

426
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 4: she's thirty one. You know, she would take her time

427
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 4: a little bit.

428
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 2: But I don't know.

429
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 4: She doesn't listen to me. I think I should start

430
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 4: talking saying the opposite, and maybe she will. I'll be like, yes,

431
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 4: let's get married, Yes let's have some kids, and then

432
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 4: she might not do it.

433
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 2: I don't know.

434
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 4: That's what I need to start doing psychology.

435
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 3: We definitely hope to see you a lot on the

436
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 3: show because you have such a funny way of talking

437
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 3: with her. It's so honest and unfiltered, and the fact

438
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 3: that she's so spontaneous is gonna make for a great season.

439
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 2: She's I think she's gonna be.

440
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 3: All over the place mentally, which is gonna be really

441
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 3: difficult for her and you as her mom, but also

442
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 3: really entertaining for us as viewers.

443
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 4: Yes, I'm just like, oh man, they might not let

444
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 4: me because she might be too messy, and I'll be like,

445
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 4: I will want to come through the screen. So yeah,

446
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 4: they probably. I don't know. Who knows.

447
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 2: Oh so funny.

448
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,719
Speaker 3: Have any past bachelorettes reached out to her to give advice?

449
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 4: I think so I think I know she's talked to

450
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:51,439
Speaker 4: like Hannah Brown. I think she's talked to a couple,

451
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 4: but I don't know, like all of you know, she

452
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 4: she has so many she gets so many dms anyway,

453
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 4: like and I'm sure it's like intensified like so much

454
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 4: just since you know that they she's come out and

455
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 4: said that. But yeah, I know, like she's taught. I

456
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 4: think she's talked to Nick.

457
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,239
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, she and Nick are friends. He will need

458
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 3: great help. I know.

459
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 4: I love I love Nick, so I've met him too,

460
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 4: and I love him and his wife. I'm just like

461
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 4: it's I don't know. I wish he was the host,

00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 4: to be honest, or Chris. I wish Chris nothing against Jesse.

466
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 4: So I love Chris. I wish they could have brought

467

468
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 4: I don't I have nothing against the new guy. I

469
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 4: just don't know.

470
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 3: He's great because he's great, But like obviously there is

471
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:49,159
Speaker 3: so much heart and soul that we're missing after Chris,

472
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 3: and I think that you speak for a lot of

473
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 3: people there. Yeah, all right, Well, I also think that

474
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,639
Speaker 3: you'll probably be at Dancing with the Stars a lot

475
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 3: after this, because I think that having Taylor probably on

476
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 3: that show is.

477
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 2: Probably gonna happen after.

478
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 3: This, and then of course whoever she ends up with

479
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 3: is gonna end up on Secret Lives.

480
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.

481
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:17,199
Speaker 3: I love that element to this whole thing because I

482
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 3: think a lot of people are so interested, interested to

483
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 3: see what happens with the relationships once they get off

484
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 3: the show. And it's so great that in your case,

485
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 3: we're gonna see their relationship, them moving in together, planning

486
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 3: a wedding, navigating all of life off the show on

487
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 3: Secret Lives.

488
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 2: It's so perfect. I love this.

489
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 4: Oh that's awesome. Do you have any advice that you

490
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 4: I can give her? Because I'm like, you were like

Speaker 4: Thanks, And I just I love that because I I

497
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 4: think that you're a great example to so many people

498
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 4: and so thank you like, you know, like I think

499
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 4: with not your generation, but just like the younger generation

500
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 4: is like hookup culture. Yeah, and I just like feel like, gosh,

501
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 4: you just like give so much of yourself, you know,

502
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 4: to these guys or vice versa. Like the men too,

503
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 4: and it's just like, I don't know, I just wish

504
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 4: more women, especially women though, like value their theirselves more

505
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 4: and just like didn't give it up that quick, you know,

506
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 4: Like I don't know, just stuff like that. It's just

507
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 4: there's so much more, Like sex is like so much,

508
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 4: I don't know, there's just so many like it's a

509
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 4: connection that you give to somebody else, and I just

510
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 4: like somebody you just don't know or that great or

511
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 4: I don't know me.

512
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 3: That's all my feelings back in my twenties was just like, yes,

513
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 3: I hated cook up culture.

514
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,159
Speaker 2: I couldn't understand why I was living in the.

515
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,640
Speaker 6: Midst of it. I was like, I do not belong

516
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 6: in this decade. I'm like, can we go back in

517
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 6: time and I can date then? Because I was very uncomfortable.

518
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I love that about you. I mean that's

519
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 4: I'm like, you're beautiful and you're just like held yourself

520
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 4: and that's commendable.

521
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 3: Thank you. Actually that brings me to another question. Fantasy suites.

522
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,719
Speaker 3: That's why I can really get messy, you know, because

523
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:25,919
Speaker 3: like I think that the best situation is that you

524
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 3: know who you're gonna pick going into fantasy suites, right,

525
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 3: because then those leads usually end up just sleeping with

526
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 3: the one person that they know they're gonna pick.

527
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:39,919
Speaker 2: Because when you go into it and you and.

528
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:44,640
Speaker 3: You sleep with everyone, uh huh, it can get really messy.

529
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 4: Oh I bet yes, I will be so pissed if

530
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 4: she goes in and does that. I will you, I

531
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 4: will be so mad. And I know, I mean she

532
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 4: doesn't care, like really what I think, but she does,

533
00:26:58,240 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 4: but she doesn't. It's just weird.

534
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 3: That's why your relationship is so funny, like because you

535
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 3: guys are very close, but you are, like I don't

536
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 3: get you.

537
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, I'm just she says that she's she She

538
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 4: always says how you wouldn't buy a car. I hate that, saying,

539
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 4: like you unless you test drive. And it's like I

540
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 4: didn't have sex in with my husband until I got

541
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 4: married and I already had her right, so like I

542
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 4: tried it that way first, and then obviously I marry.

543
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 4: I've been married twenty nine years, so that is so

544
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 4: not true. Like our relationship is like a great relationship

545
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 4: and we I don't know. I just think that that's

546
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 4: not true about it.

547
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 3: And you know what in Bachelor World, because it is

548
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 3: very weird, it's so much different than regular world.

549
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:51,160
Speaker 2: Yes, utilize the thing. In my opinion, if you.

550
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 3: Have to test drive a car, right, make it be

551
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 3: the person you're gonna pick, and you know what, you

552
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,159
Speaker 3: can go it through it and you can sleep with

553
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,040
Speaker 3: no one in the fantasy suite, which is probably the

554
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 3: best idea. And your test drive is after the show. Okay,

555
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 3: you're not getting married in the last episode.

556
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 2: Yes, I agree, you're still engaged.

557
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 3: And to be honest, even if you're engaged, a lot

558
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 3: of those people who leave the show engaged think like, Okay,

559
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:16,879
Speaker 3: now we're starting to really date.

560
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, because too like right, it's not it's not

561
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:25,920
Speaker 4: reality like going on these exotic dates. You know, that's

562
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 4: not always what happens to all these people who date now,

563
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 4: So it's yeah. And I think that this season with

564
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 4: Taylor is going to be a little different because she's

565
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 4: like not your high maintenance kind of girl who has

566
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 4: to go on these like crazy adventures to like, I

567
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 4: don't know, to impress her. I guess like she's like

568
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 4: that type that's like, let's just go for a hike.

569
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 4: You know. Yeah. I'm like, she's like the ring doesn't

570
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 4: like is not anything? You know me, I'm like opposite.

571
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 4: I'm like, no, you choose the best ring. I don't know.

572
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 4: We're so obvious. It's so funny.

573
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 3: That's one of my favorite things so far about watching

574
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 3: Secret Lives though, is that the girls are wearing like

575
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 3: sweatpants around and talking on couches like that.

576
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 2: Is more realistic than a lot of other reality show.

577
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 4: Yes, I know it is. They're they're they're so funny,

578
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 4: those girls. Yeah, it's it's fun to see and it's well,

579
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 4: you've been on reality shows and and uh yeah, it's

580
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 4: it's not like so many people think it's fake and

581
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 4: her life is so real on this show. It's it's real.

582
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 4: It's unscripted. It's real. Like I say what I want. Yeah,

583
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 4: people ask me, do you do they tell you what

584
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 4: to say?

585
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 2: I'm like no, really, Okay.

586
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 3: That's good to know because I was wondering how her

587
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 3: transition from Secret Lives would go over into Bachelor, Like,

588
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 3: is she going to be very aware of production? You think, like,

589
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 3: is she gonna be like, oh, they're making me do

590
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 3: this or they're making me do that?

591
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 2: Like is she going to have she's gonna have to say?

592
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 4: Is what I is?

593
00:29:57,920 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 3: What I think you think that she's going to be

594
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 3: like more in a direct in our director position because

595
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 3: of her experience.

596
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 4: I do, yes, So I think I don't know, we'll

597
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 4: we'll see. Obviously they can say something and then when

598
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 4: you're you know, you're signed up, then change it, you know.

599
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 4: But she's so good at capturing like an audience and

600
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 4: so too it's like they might just let her just

601
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 4: be who she is. Who knows. All I know is

602
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 4: like I hope she doesn't like show up in crocs

603
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 4: with a dress or something like I just am like, please, Taylor,

604
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 4: Like some of the shoes that she wears, I'm like,

605
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 4: that does not go Like she just doesn't care and

606
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,479
Speaker 4: it's just funny. She'd rather be comfortable. And it's just

607
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,719
Speaker 4: like I'm glad she has like a stylist who's like gonna,

608
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 4: you know, do her whole wardrobe. I'm just like, at

609
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 4: least for that part, you know.

610
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 3: I hope that they recreate a lot of home dates though,

611
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 3: like what it would actually be like for her to

612
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 3: be at home with the kids, having her new fiance,

613
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 3: just like, yes, making dinner and in the midst of

614
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 3: all the chaos.

615
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 4: That is right, it is chaos too, chaos.

616
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 2: How old are they all?

617
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 4: Indy just turned eight, and then Ocean's five, and then

618
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 4: the baby ever, he's eighteen months. Okay, so it is.

619
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 4: It's crazy. It's a crazy house. Yeah, but she thrives

620
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 4: in chaos, and so I don't know.
