Speaker 2: if you're single and just annoyed at being single and
Speaker 2: single life and dating apps and your friend's trying to
Speaker 2: help and your parents trying to help it, I would
Speaker 2: say relatability is high. There's some And as you guys know,
Speaker 2: I've been making I've been the troll of the Bachelor
Speaker 2: Nation for.
Speaker 3: All these years. I've been yelling at the TV.
Speaker 2: I have Bachelor material in the special and kind of
Speaker 2: relating it to my life because as you guys know
Speaker 2: of people who've been on the show, you know, before
Speaker 2: you go on, someone's like, you should go on, you
Speaker 2: should go on. Like if you're a single person who
Speaker 2: knows The Bachelor has been around The Bachelor, it's always
Speaker 2: something that said to you if you're a fan of
Speaker 2: the show, and people know that, you should submit.
Speaker 3: So I talk about that type of.
Speaker 2: Stuff and why I could never go on the show,
Speaker 2: but I you know, and then to talk about gender
Speaker 2: reveal parties and you know, body issues and late night
Speaker 2: eating and it's really meant to be something that everyone
Speaker 2: can enjoy, you know, friends, family, make a date night,
Speaker 2: watch it with your parents, watch it with someone you know,
Speaker 2: your friends on a you know, with a glass of wine,
Speaker 2: and it's just super exciting, like you know, it's it's
Speaker 2: it's why I like watching The Bachelor.
Speaker 3: I love watching The Bachelor because it's relatable every bat.
Speaker 2: You know, when people say, oh, it's fair, I get
Speaker 2: really annoyed because I love. To me, the Bachelor's professional wrestling.
Speaker 2: It's like WWE. Yeah, maybe the maybe all the surroundings
Speaker 2: are fake and the characters are maybe a little heightened,
Speaker 2: but You're still gotta jump off the top rope.
Speaker 3: You're still gonna take the bumps.
Speaker 2: You're still gonna get first kiss and get dumped and
Speaker 2: say I love you, and say and and ask someone
Speaker 2: to you know, meet their parents, and meet the parents
Speaker 2: and get dumped after me and the parents. So it's
Speaker 2: all like a vessel to be able to relate to
Speaker 2: your own life, because that's what we all do. What
Speaker 2: would I do in charity shoes? What would I do
Speaker 2: in you know, Aaron B's shoes? All these things? And
Speaker 2: what would I do when you know, grocery Joe's shoes?
Speaker 2: He goes on the show for one minute the grocery
Speaker 2: store Joe, excuse me, sorry, I forgot your middle name.
Speaker 2: I like, what would I do if I went on
Speaker 2: this show for fifteen minutes and all of a sudden
Speaker 2: became this mega star? How would I deal with this?
Speaker 2: So I think it's all like this is why I
Speaker 2: love the show and I'm happy to be here with
Speaker 2: you guys, So thank you for having me.
Speaker 6: If you're if you're still single, you should go on.
Speaker 2: I can't no, no, no, no, I'm joking.
Speaker 3: I'm too I'm too chubby.
Speaker 2: I the camera adds twenty pounds for me fifty pounds.
Speaker 3: I next to the batchea.
Speaker 2: Because the one thing you realize very quickly when I
Speaker 2: meet you guys, when I meet the you know, the
Speaker 2: the Greek gods and goddesses that go on this show,
Speaker 2: is you guys are TV ready? Like there's like I
Speaker 2: had six martinis last night, Like I am, there's no
Speaker 2: TV ready over here. I'm happy to be watching for
Speaker 2: my apartment alone, yelling at the TV like a loser.
Speaker 2: I'm okay with that, Dared.
Speaker 5: Before we get into all the bacheloration questions, I just
Speaker 5: remembered this, and now that I have you in friend me,
Speaker 5: I have to bringest to you.
Speaker 4: So what am I?
Speaker 5: One of my girlfriends is a fan of Bachelor, is
Speaker 5: a fan of you, listens to like all your podcasts,
Speaker 5: and she listens to them before she goes to bed.
Speaker 5: And you do, like a question, submit your questions dating podcasts?
Speaker 4: I guess right, the U.
Speaker 3: A podcast we take emails fromsters and give advice.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yes, that podcast. And she's like, I'm listening. I'm listening.
Speaker 4: I'm falling asleep.
Speaker 5: I'm almost in my freakin' rem and I hear someone
Speaker 5: has sent a question about me, about my data?
Speaker 4: Do you know what she saw?
Speaker 2: You know? So you got So we play a game
Speaker 2: on U podcast, which is a dating and relaysia podcast,
Speaker 2: and if anyone usually the UF podcast gets sent to
Speaker 2: people during a breakup. It's in like the basket of
Speaker 2: goodies that someone gets to like, you know, be you know,
Speaker 2: rocked like a baby back to health. You know. So
Speaker 2: what We play a game called red Flag deal Breaker,
Speaker 2: and a man from Toronto sent in a red Flag
Speaker 2: deal Breaker asking and red flag means I notice it,
Speaker 2: but I'll still date them.
Speaker 3: Deal Breaker means I'm out.
Speaker 2: And you know, red flags have kind of trended on
Speaker 2: on TikTok. We've been doing this game for six years now,
Speaker 2: like it's it's crazy. We had a hard game we made,
Speaker 2: so you have this one thing happened? Do you keep
Speaker 2: going or do you say I'm out? And the one
Speaker 2: thing they sent in for us to discuss was that
Speaker 2: Serena Pitt was I don't know if I hear this,
Speaker 2: so that they they went on a date with Serena
Speaker 2: and she was engaged with some guy from the show. No, No,
Speaker 2: that wasn't.
Speaker 3: I look at you're in So no, the the basically
Speaker 3: someone that's friends with Serena.
Speaker 2: All their pictures on Hinge were of the girl and Serena,
Speaker 2: So it was like red flag or deal breaker. All
Speaker 2: of their pictures on the dating app are with a
Speaker 2: celebrity and are with someone that's recognizable. Are they trying
Speaker 2: to attain clout of.
Speaker 3: A certain nature?
Speaker 2: They were basically asking, is this person trying to suck
Speaker 2: the Hollywood out of Serena to try and you know,
Speaker 2: glamorize themselves to get a date?
Speaker 3: And and and we had a we actually had a lengthy.
Speaker 2: Conversation where we were like you could have one picture
Speaker 2: with Serena.
Speaker 3: And then like Jordana was like, not a you know,
Speaker 3: wasn't watching that season.
Speaker 2: She's like, I don't know Serena, So to me, this
Speaker 2: is just you know, and we were kind of talking
Speaker 2: about like having the same person in your profile multiple
Speaker 2: times is just kind of weird in general, not you know,
Speaker 2: like do you know who this was? Serena?
Speaker 4: This is one of my best friends.
Speaker 5: So yeah, and I will say it was only like
Speaker 5: two or three out of her like six photos, right.
Speaker 2: Right, tell the former finance guy knows what I'm talking about.
Speaker 3: Fifty percent that's a big percentage.
Speaker 5: I would not be surprised if she's redone her profile
Speaker 5: since you said that, but I would also have be
Speaker 5: surprised if it looks exactly the same.
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna have radio check.
Speaker 2: And it's hard to have this conversation because we were like,
Speaker 2: you know, there becomes the discussion of like, how big
Speaker 2: a celebrity is Serena. And I've met you before, Serena,
Speaker 2: you don't come off as like I'm the biggest celebrity in.
Speaker 3: The world, like you You're a very normal person.
Speaker 2: Like right, that was the wish.
Speaker 3: I did, the biggest celebrity in the world.
Speaker 2: Behavior. So then it became this like weird discussion of like,
Speaker 2: is Serena like a big enough celebrity to be a
Speaker 2: big brag? Is it? Like? And I was like, listen,
Speaker 2: if it was three pictures in the profile, it would
Speaker 2: take me the first three to wonder who is this person?
Speaker 3: Because that's the problem.
Speaker 2: Generally, the problem on a dating profile is if you
Speaker 2: know it's like this where's Waldo game? Some people's just
Speaker 2: them with friends and you're like, oh my god, who
Speaker 2: am I trying to make love to here?
Speaker 3: You know, like one of my you know, like and
Speaker 3: so it.
Speaker 2: Was a fun discussion, but it happened to you know,
Speaker 2: embroil bring you into the fray of the UF podcast.
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, and her as one of your listeners, which
Speaker 5: was an extraordinarily she's a listener.
Speaker 4: She's just a listener. She was just listening.
Speaker 1: And then then then all of a sudden you're talking
Speaker 1: about her, which is got to be crazy. But you
Speaker 1: do talk about the cast and you write profiles for everyone.
Speaker 2: So the cool thing about having a special on Netflix
Speaker 2: is like, I've never really been plucked from obscurity. Everything
Speaker 2: I've done has been this like I'll put stuff on
Speaker 2: the Internet that I think are funny and hopefully people
Speaker 2: come my way. So one of my ideas early on
Speaker 2: was that The Bachelor puts out all these profiles of
Speaker 2: every contestant.
Speaker 3: So I was like, I'll take and they used to only.
Speaker 2: Put out a picture and their name and their age,
Speaker 2: and their profession and where they were from, and I
Speaker 2: would just make fun of those facts. And honestly, it
Speaker 2: could be anyone from Baltimore, San Diego, whatever it was,
Speaker 2: or anyone that had a job in finance. I would
Speaker 2: just make it was a forum for me to be
Speaker 2: funny and make jokes. Then The Bachelor started writing full
Speaker 2: on profiles, question and answers with the contestants, so it
Speaker 2: made my job like a thousand times easier because there's
Speaker 2: like now a million things to make fun of. So
Speaker 2: it's weird because now I'm going on all these podcasts
Speaker 2: and I've written about you guys before even meeting you
Speaker 2: on camera.
Speaker 3: So I took your profile and I'm going to read
Speaker 3: you both the.
Speaker 4: Profile ask I'm sweating. I don't know, okay, I'm so
Speaker 4: nervous to hear that.
Speaker 3: I'm going to read Joe's first, because it was long ago.
Speaker 2: I don't even have like this might have been before
Speaker 2: they did, so, yeah, you're ready, I don't think.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I'm pretty sure they didn't. I think
Speaker 1: I don't know if they wrote anything for us. I
Speaker 1: feel like they said our name, where we were from,
Speaker 1: and our age. But yeah, let's see, well you did
Speaker 1: have more information because I did have.
Speaker 2: Okay, ready, So this was Joe's in twenty eighteen. I
Speaker 2: wrote this like, thank God for Google, Like you know,
Speaker 2: I can I have it all. I was like I
Speaker 2: searched this and it's like crazy. So and again I
Speaker 2: get like weird because it's like my writing. I'm like,
Speaker 2: I hope I've gotten better. Okay, ready, let's go. Joe
Speaker 2: left the stock exchange to own a grocery store. Some
Speaker 2: women will get nostalgia and be like, that's what Corey
Speaker 2: Matthews dad did on the show. Then imagine a life
Speaker 2: living next to mister Feenie and having a girlfriend who's
Speaker 2: too hot for him. Others will think didn't Amazon just
Speaker 2: get into the grocery business and think that Joe isn't
Speaker 2: the type of decision maker that will win this show.
Speaker 2: Becca will be like, hey, boys, meet me at the
Speaker 2: restaurant for our date night. And everyone will be like.
Speaker 2: Becca will be like, hey, boys, meet me at the
Speaker 2: restaurant for our date night. And everyone will be at
Speaker 2: the restaurant and Becca will be like, where's Joe. And
Speaker 2: someone will be like, oh, Joe decided to take his
Speaker 2: horse and buggy, and I think there was a line
Speaker 2: at the toll booth, so he's gonna be a minute.
Speaker 2: So that was my Joe. Oh my god, center.
Speaker 3: Well I read yours first because I think Soriena's is
Speaker 3: a little tougher.
Speaker 4: Oh god, I'm scared on my bio.
Speaker 5: I remember reading my bio for the show and being like,
Speaker 5: oh god, like this is this is what people pulled
Speaker 5: from every piece of information they have about me to write,
Speaker 5: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: Okay, wait wait wait In Boy Meets World that his
Speaker 1: is that what we're talking about? That his dad own
Speaker 1: autore Yeah yeah, and he lived next to mister Feenie.
Speaker 2: And I always thought the Pango was too hot for Corey.
Speaker 2: So these let you into my thoughts and feelings.
Speaker 4: Okay, I like I like the Boy World reference. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I'm ready.
Speaker 2: You know, age is Joe, You and I you know,
Speaker 2: you know we're out of the mix for some of
Speaker 2: these jokes. You know, I gotta go. I gotta go young.
Speaker 2: I gotta make sure the kids get these.
Speaker 4: Okay, you ready, I'm ready.
Speaker 2: Serena p Is a twenty two year old publicist from
Speaker 2: Toronto who says she is chronically angry. That's just a
Speaker 2: coded way of saying I'm an asshole who doesn't take
Speaker 2: responsibility for my behavior. I put describing yourself as angry
Speaker 2: in the same category as saying I'm just sarcastic and
Speaker 2: nobody gets my sense of humor and everyone's so sensitive.
Speaker 2: These are all assholes who who, instead of making any
Speaker 2: changes or looking in the mirror at all, give themselves
Speaker 2: a character description and we all have to just accept it.
Speaker 3: It's always sorry, I was just angry.
Speaker 2: This is what happens when you don't feed me, as
Speaker 2: if they're a four year old who has the who
Speaker 2: has the ability to pay rent, but no strength to
Speaker 2: open the fridge for an apple. I'm gonna start calling
Speaker 2: myself horn gree anytime I get mad and then go
Speaker 2: masturbate and come out of the bathroom and be like, sorry,
Speaker 2: I was just horn gree. That's what happens when you
Speaker 2: don't lick my nuts.
Speaker 1: That was way better than yeah you get better, Yeah
Speaker 1: you've gotten better.
Speaker 2: I've gotten better. This is horn gree. Is pretty funny,
Speaker 2: and I might do that bit on stage tonight at
Speaker 2: the Comedy Seller.
Speaker 3: But now it's given me some inspiration. So thank you
Speaker 3: for going back into you.
Speaker 2: Know, uh, you know whatever and into the memories of
Speaker 2: my past. But it is the archives that was that
Speaker 2: was a lot of fun. But yeah, so this is
Speaker 2: a true thrill for me, enre me, getting to come
Speaker 2: on with the Greek gods and goddesses of our time.
Speaker 2: The Bachelor and Bachelorette contestants of Joe and Serena.
Speaker 1: Oh that was good, thank you for that. That was
Speaker 1: that was a lot of fun. Brought me back to
Speaker 1: I remember I remember my profile pick with my short
Speaker 1: hair in that green jacket.
Speaker 2: I hated it. Okay, I just remember the grocery store thing.
Speaker 2: I don't know who, what God you prayed to Joe.
Speaker 2: I don't know what you did in charity work, because
Speaker 2: nobody has gotten so much from one description in the
Speaker 2: entirety of the show.
Speaker 3: And I wish you were the best and I love
Speaker 3: you for it.
Speaker 1: The grocery yeah, how the grocery thing just just caught fire.
Speaker 6: Was was insane.
Speaker 1: And I was only part of that grocery store, like
Speaker 1: I was in the wholesale so I used to sell produce.
Speaker 6: I was only part of the grocery store for like.
Speaker 1: Eight months, and it was just like it was my
Speaker 1: identity all of a sudden, I was like, this is insane.
Speaker 2: It's such a Hallmark movie thing. It's like I can
Speaker 2: totally and it's the audience. I mean, who doesn't like
Speaker 2: a Hallmark movie trope?
Speaker 5: But it is uh yeah, it is something that you'd
Speaker 5: find on like a TV movie, like the guy that
Speaker 5: used to work on wall streets moved back to his
Speaker 5: hometown to run a grocery store, and then his high
Speaker 5: school sweetheart moves back as well.
Speaker 4: It's like, say, the inn.
Speaker 2: You uh, and you gotta look and you got you know,
Speaker 2: the Italian as shocks. You're mister shocks. Yeah no, it's uh,
Speaker 2: it is. It hits you right in the fields.
Speaker 1: Light lightning in a bottle. Okay, So let's go to
Speaker 1: hometown's Hometowns. Do you watch Hometowns?
Speaker 2: I love Hometowns. It's my favorite episode of the season always.
Speaker 2: I think it's great. Really, it's Serena's it's Serena's least favorite.
Speaker 2: I enjoy it too. Why do you not like it? Serena?
Speaker 5: So I actually I didn't mind this one. I find
Speaker 5: it feels like the same thing four times in a row. Sure,
Speaker 5: And it's the least like drama. It's the least relationship
Speaker 5: based because you're bringing in all these people that the
Speaker 5: audience has never seen before and they know they're never
Speaker 5: going to see again. So it just feels hard to
Speaker 5: get like, really invested in the episode. But I will
Speaker 5: say these four hometowns did feel different, and I loved
Speaker 5: all for the families, so that did help for sure.
Speaker 2: I just love the idea, Like you know, when someone
Speaker 2: applies to go on the Bachelor or Bachelorette, they are
Speaker 2: very much there's somewhat camera ready. I just love that
Speaker 2: these families go on They have no want or need
Speaker 2: to go on TV. They don't want to be on TV.
Speaker 2: They're they're probably like told like I don't know, I
Speaker 2: guess we have to do this now, and then they have.
Speaker 3: To be on TV.
Speaker 2: And like, to me, there's nothing more real than someone
Speaker 2: who doesn't want to be on TV being on TV.
Speaker 2: So I do enjoy the weirdness of it, like seeing
Speaker 2: the sister who's just like whide eyed, you know, like
Speaker 2: why am I here? And then seeing you know, the internet,
Speaker 2: like from the Internet view of it.
Speaker 3: I'm always like just fascinated, Like I guess there.
Speaker 2: Was one, you know, Joey's uncle to me is the
Speaker 2: most fabulous because he Joey's uncle. I was like, this
Speaker 2: guy must be a piece of work, like to come
Speaker 2: on the CHEF and then just be like I don't
Speaker 2: know and like kind of create conspiracy theories out of
Speaker 2: nowhere of.
Speaker 1: His own nephew and of his own nephew. He's literally
Speaker 1: going like, ah, I just I don't know if you
Speaker 1: know the real Joey.
Speaker 7: It's like, what are you saying? Why are you? Why
Speaker 7: are you doing this to your nephew? You're root right
Speaker 7: like my uncle. I'd be like I would look at
Speaker 7: my uncle before going on this. I'd be like, you
Speaker 7: just shut the fuck up, and you don't ruin this
Speaker 7: for me?
Speaker 2: What do you say? Like I would pull if I'm Joey,
Speaker 2: I'm pulling aside my uncle and be like, what the
Speaker 2: hell did you say to her? Did you say did
Speaker 2: she knock at.
Speaker 3: The real meat?
Speaker 2: You know what this show is all about. There's literally
Speaker 2: podcasting things called here for the right reasons. You're gonna
Speaker 2: implant in her head that there might be a chance
Speaker 2: that I've been this like sleeper cell. You're getting me.
Speaker 6: The best is you're not even You're not even my dad, you're.
Speaker 2: My You're some random guy.
Speaker 3: And he shows up to tennis, like he says, and tennis.
Speaker 2: Coaches are kind of like notoriously like characters if you
Speaker 2: know anything about tennis, Like there's this like kind of
Speaker 2: trope that goes along with like tennis coach. That's too
Speaker 2: hard on the on the on the pupil, and it's
Speaker 2: like he shows up and he's like kind of a dick,
Speaker 2: kind of actually showing charity. He's like, you might be
Speaker 2: he says to charity, you might have a little bit
Speaker 2: of a tennis.
Speaker 3: Well, why don't you have a compliment, Uncle Joe. You
Speaker 3: can't give a fucking compliment.
Speaker 2: I hated Uncle Joe in a way that like, and
Speaker 2: he's named after him, this is his namesake, so like,
Speaker 2: what's he gonna say to Uncle Joe?
Speaker 1: This was my I'm laughing so hard because this was
Speaker 1: my reaction when I was watching it.
Speaker 3: I'm just like, what is happening?
Speaker 5: He was like, why is Uncle Joe throwing Joey under
Speaker 5: the bus. And it made it worse because all the
Speaker 5: other families, like the siblings were like such wingmen, like
Speaker 5: just building up their siblings, being like they're ready, they
Speaker 5: would never cheat on you, they're loyal, they're faithful, they're genuine,
Speaker 5: like the best way man family members ever. And then
Speaker 5: you've got Uncle Joe just being like I don't know
Speaker 5: about Joey for you, I don't know on his own.
Speaker 4: I don't know him at all.
Speaker 2: Right, It was so bizarre. It was so weird, like
Speaker 2: even him showing up to the tennis court and like unannounced.
Speaker 3: You're like, whoa, do you have a family of your own?
Speaker 2: Like if you ever dealt with like a child bringing
Speaker 2: home a significant other?
Speaker 3: Like what are you saying to charity? I yeah, it was.
Speaker 2: And I'm sorry to skip ahead because I know we're skipping,
Speaker 2: you know, but I guess like we're going over Joey's
Speaker 2: thing now. But like that was the that jumped out
Speaker 2: of me in a way because like, and again, that's
Speaker 2: like the fun of hometowns is like this family member,
Speaker 2: who's you know, we all have that, the eccentric family member,
Speaker 2: the wild card. We don't, you know, I'm sure. I'm
Speaker 2: sure Joey off cameras. Like I got this uncle Joe
Speaker 2: and he's like a character and he's my tennis coach
Speaker 2: and I'm really close with him and he's at every event.
Speaker 2: But I don't know what he's gonna say. You can't
Speaker 2: be obviously, yeah he will say anything, and you're like, yeah,
Speaker 2: what are you out of your mind?
Speaker 6: Though, filter uncle Joe?
Speaker 1: I mean I had so many family members like that too,
Speaker 1: So I just watched it.
Speaker 6: I'm just like I'm sitting there like, oh my god,
Speaker 6: how did you? How did you allow this?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 1: And I actually I'm gonna I'm gonna go way back
Speaker 1: because there's something I want to bring up that I
Speaker 1: thought was extremely funny that you did for our listeners.
Speaker 6: Jared, you'll recap episodes, You'll scream.
Speaker 5: I know what Joe's gonna bring up because I thought
Speaker 5: it was this is even about this season, like.
Speaker 2: We're just jump back and we're gonna jump back into
Speaker 2: this season.
Speaker 1: But it was because it was hometowns on Zach season
Speaker 1: with Ariel and she she goes to the Jewish deli
Speaker 1: and gets like filter fish and pastrami.
Speaker 6: And you're going, who are you dating?
Speaker 3: This is a ding I would watch?
Speaker 6: You should be Yeah, I was.
Speaker 3: I was crying well when Ariel was on the show.
Speaker 2: It's like, I you know, you get word of like
Speaker 2: who the Jews are, and as a Jewish guy, I'm like,
Speaker 2: oh my god, like I'm again I put myself in
Speaker 2: the shoes of the people like I always think like
Speaker 2: And she brings him to Sarge's Deli and You're like,
Speaker 2: who would order these things for lunch? Like are you
Speaker 2: trying to like fuck with Zach. They're like, you're gonna
Speaker 2: have some tongue, Like my dad eats tongue. I don't
Speaker 2: order a tongue sandwich.
Speaker 3: She's like here, you.
Speaker 2: Know how what did she give him? Like, uh, like
Speaker 2: a cafilterficial Like cafil division is like something you have
Speaker 2: like at the high holidays and like you would never
Speaker 2: be like, yeah, I'll have a Maza wall soup. The
Speaker 2: caffild official is like what are you doing to us
Speaker 2: as Jews area, Like why are you trying? Like this
Speaker 2: felt like they were on Fear Factor and they did
Speaker 2: like the food section of Fear Factory.
Speaker 5: This show was definitely like, look, you could order a
Speaker 5: pastrami sandwich or you could order something else, and let's
Speaker 5: go something totally shocking that Zach and be like you're
Speaker 5: gonna really make me tongue right now?
Speaker 6: Funny?
Speaker 1: Okay, So back to hometowns. We just covered Joey's Aaron's hometown.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't really think there's much to cover
Speaker 1: on it. I think it was just classic and just
Speaker 1: like your nice hometown.
Speaker 2: I will say about Aaron's hometown is that and I
Speaker 2: have to quiet down my neighbor below just hit the
Speaker 2: bottom of my floor. I got too excited about Fish.
Speaker 2: I know. I'm sorry. Aaron to me has been kind
Speaker 2: of like Aaron rings to me, very unnatural the whole season.
Speaker 2: I don't know how you guys feel. It feels like
Speaker 2: he's reading a script. But there was one part a
Speaker 2: couple episodes where he's giving a massage to charity and
Speaker 2: you're like, and you're like, and he he gave off
Speaker 2: the energy of like my girlfriend's best friend who actually
Speaker 2: likes her. Like he's like a little uncomfortable. He never
Speaker 2: like it always feels performative. It feels like he's saying
Speaker 2: what he thinks he's supposed to say. And then you
Speaker 2: get to his house and his family is so nice
Speaker 2: in a way that my family would never open up
Speaker 2: to each other. Like, I don't know about you guys, Like,
Speaker 2: were you prepared to like tell your parents how much
Speaker 2: they you love them if they were to be on
Speaker 2: the show.
Speaker 3: Like I I, it doesn't it.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys felt the same.
Speaker 3: We're on yeah.
Speaker 4: Show, and I definitely did not.
Speaker 5: Actually, I thought I thought his hometown was lovely, but
Speaker 5: I agree, I wasn't prepared for his hometown to be
Speaker 5: like that. Based on what we've seen of him on
Speaker 5: this show, I find him not like super super warm necessarily.
Speaker 5: And his family was like the warmest family ever. And
Speaker 5: I was saying to Joe in our recap like it
Speaker 5: was like it was like a moment for his family
Speaker 5: versus like a moment for Charity and his family, Like
Speaker 5: I felt like him telling his family he loves them
Speaker 5: and them saying we're proud of you with like that
Speaker 5: was the hometown.
Speaker 2: I couldn't agree more. And honestly, like I kind of
Speaker 2: came away from that being like this is kind of
Speaker 2: unfair to Charity because it was like, look how much
Speaker 2: we love each other. How could you say no to
Speaker 2: this family? You know, like, you know, the dad's talking about, well,
Speaker 2: we do Christmas here. It's like, yeah, who the fuck
Speaker 2: doesn't do Christmas at their house?
Speaker 3: He was talking about it.
Speaker 2: Like it was a special holiday literally right right, Like
Speaker 2: it was weird, and it's like you kind of put
Speaker 2: these people, you know, put Charity into a position of
Speaker 2: guilt where it's like, what you don't want to do
Speaker 2: Christmas the way we It's like, yeah, everyone goes home
Speaker 2: for Christmas. I don't know what you're even me a Jew,
Speaker 2: I go home and have Chinese food on Christmas, like
Speaker 2: the idea that like, oh, we do things differently here,
Speaker 2: and you're like one, you know, like I don't know.
Speaker 2: It was he tried the locker.
Speaker 1: He tried the locker in for Christmas just in case
Speaker 1: they got married. He wanted to get the first Christmas.
Speaker 5: Yeah, He's like, you're feel we could have Thanksgiving, but
Speaker 5: like just letting you know we do Christmas, which honestly
Speaker 5: is something my dad would do.
Speaker 4: So I kind of related to that.
Speaker 2: It was, which is hilarious and also unfair, like you're
Speaker 2: putting you know in I agree. It felt like this
Speaker 2: whole thing was about this family being like, you know
Speaker 2: what the cameras are here, let's open up to one
Speaker 2: another and say what we've been holding in our whole lives.
Speaker 2: Cause like, but I.
Speaker 5: Don't think they're the first family to do that. I
Speaker 5: know there's a lot of families, and I don't know
Speaker 5: what it is, if it's like the preparation or like
Speaker 5: you've been away from each other for so long or what.
Speaker 5: But I do find for whatever reason, like hometowns like
Speaker 5: opens family up to Like this discussion of like how
Speaker 5: much they love each other, especially for these families that
Speaker 5: like it seems like don't do it a lot. Like
Speaker 5: I remember Nate on Michelle season, Like I think we
Speaker 5: saw that with his family too, Like him and his
Speaker 5: dad had this convo where like they basically said I
Speaker 5: love you to each other for the first time ever.
Speaker 5: It's like putting like a mic in a camera in
Speaker 5: front of someone does but like it's bringing families together.
Speaker 1: I still you know, if I had to film my
Speaker 1: family for for when I went on Paradise the second time,
Speaker 1: and all my dad said was.
Speaker 6: I don't care what you do, just don't cry on TV.
Speaker 4: Missed out on your hometown?
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, I mean I would have loved to have
Speaker 8: seen Joe's hometown just based on that one little interaction alone,
Speaker 8: because you know what it is.
Speaker 2: I think, Serena, I don't know if you guys have
Speaker 2: been sponsored by this is gonna be a free plug,
Speaker 2: but like you've been sponsored by story Worth. They've sponsored
Speaker 2: our podcast and story Worth basically will email your parents
Speaker 2: and then ask them questions that you'd be too uncomfortable
Speaker 2: to ask, Like it'd be like, how did you know
Speaker 2: tell us how you write to us? An emails how
Speaker 2: you met, and they put it together in a book
Speaker 2: for your parents. It's a free plug for story worth.
Speaker 2: But I would say I always say during the ad,
Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, I would never ask my parents these questions,
Speaker 2: and you might open a door that you would never open.
Speaker 2: So I do think what happens on these hometowns is
Speaker 2: there's a producer who's like, I got to get the goods.
Speaker 2: And you know how producers are. I've been on sets
Speaker 2: where the producer's like asking a question, you go, I
Speaker 2: guess I've never thought of it that way, and they
Speaker 2: have you answer it certain ways. I think this is
Speaker 2: something that's happening here where the producer is next to
Speaker 2: the kid and he goes, tell, how do you feel
Speaker 2: about you? You know, Aaron B. Making you know, finding
Speaker 2: a woman? And then the dad's like, well, I've never
Speaker 2: been asked this question before. Yes, it is funny that
Speaker 2: some parents buy it, buy into it more than others.
Speaker 2: And Aaron B's definitely like the example of like I
Speaker 2: was like, should I be here right now? That was
Speaker 2: kind of my takeaway.
Speaker 4: Yes, you know what's so funny. I don't know if
Speaker 4: you know this.
Speaker 3: Aaron B.
Speaker 4: Is really close with Aaron Clancy. Really, Yeah, don't you
Speaker 4: surprise you?
Speaker 2: It does because Aaron Clancy's the San Diego bro.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and they couldn't be any more different.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I find them incredibly different. I'd like to see
Speaker 5: them in person interacting together.
Speaker 2: Right. I compared Aaron and James to two bouncers at
Speaker 2: a night club in San Diego. That's their their energy
Speaker 2: was you know, we dragged people out of bars energy.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're there.
Speaker 1: They definitely have that night at the Roxbury kind of Okay,
Speaker 1: let's talk a little bit about let's just move off
Speaker 1: the episode. Just talk about the franchise in a hole.
Speaker 1: You've been covering it for how long?
Speaker 2: What do we want to say? Years? It's been years,
Speaker 2: not ten years.
Speaker 3: What happened was I remember I was with my brother
Speaker 3: and I lived together.
Speaker 2: He's four years younger than me. I'm doing stand up
Speaker 2: in New York, and you know, I think I was
Speaker 2: sick one night, so I did, like, stayed home and
Speaker 2: didn't do stand up. You know, it, didn't do any shows,
Speaker 2: and I started just like watching them. I always have
Speaker 2: loved reality TV, no matter what. I've watched every reality
Speaker 2: TV show, and I always loved what was your.
Speaker 6: First reality show because we're around the same age. I
Speaker 6: know mine.
Speaker 4: I know mine too.
Speaker 2: Honestly, it might have been real world, no real world,
Speaker 2: real world, and then there's real real world world rules.
Speaker 2: And then there was like also the you know what's
Speaker 2: the singer that all Ozzy Osbourne? Ozzy Osbourne. I watched
Speaker 2: the Osbourne's and the Jess Simpson one, and then I
Speaker 2: watched you know, I would watch The Bachelor here and there,
Speaker 2: and I loved a dating show. I loved rock a
Speaker 2: Love and I love like the Flavor Flave one, and
Speaker 2: like I just like anything the surreal life, Like I
Speaker 2: just watched all of that stuff. I ate it up,
Speaker 2: and especially as I started dating, I would watch it
Speaker 2: with like the women I was dating, and you know,
Speaker 2: I always kind of saw them like I kind of
Speaker 2: could be my funniest in that venue. Like I would
Speaker 2: always like make them laugh because I would be like
Speaker 2: noticing things that maybe from a different angle I'm just
Speaker 2: looking at through my own personal and they're obviously looking
Speaker 2: through theirs, and I'm like, and the fun part about
Speaker 2: The Bachelor to me is that lets me talk about things.
Speaker 2: It gives me a reason to talk about things. So
Speaker 2: it's like, you know, you talk about bringing the you know,
Speaker 2: I'll never forget Pilot Pete when he brought when his
Speaker 2: mom was freaking out about wanting one girl over another.
Speaker 2: I'm like, it gave me kind of the avenue to
Speaker 2: talk about, like, my mom is the mom of two sons.
Speaker 2: You know, Pilot Pete is the son is his mom
Speaker 2: has two sons. I and he got crushed when he
Speaker 2: was listening to his mom and what she had to say.
Speaker 2: And I was sitting there defending him, being like, well,
Speaker 2: I can say none of you are giving you know,
Speaker 2: the son of a mother any empathy, like and it
Speaker 2: was like a kind of a different take at the time,
Speaker 2: you know. And then you know, so I started way
Speaker 2: back when I would take nights off a stand up
Speaker 2: to like live tweet it. And then I started doing
Speaker 2: this thing called Dudes Watching rom Coms where I'd watch
Speaker 2: rom comms and like commentate on them, and that was
Speaker 2: on my Instagram stories. I was like, well, why don't
Speaker 2: I combine these two and I'll live scream the show.
Speaker 2: So every week I've taken nights off a stand up
Speaker 2: to watch the show and yell let it on my
Speaker 2: Instagram and you know what it's become is my own show.
Speaker 2: Like you know, for stand up, everything's about doing stand
Speaker 2: up to me, like I've been doing stand up for
Speaker 2: thirteen years. I've been getting on stage every single night
Speaker 2: except for Bachelor nights. And I remember I'd go to
Speaker 2: the comedy song and they would make fun of me,
Speaker 2: like the other comments like what are you doing? Like
Speaker 2: and I go. I was like, this is the equivalent
Speaker 2: of me having my own show. Like no one ever
Speaker 2: cast me anything. I didn't get hired to write for anything.
Speaker 2: No one anytime i'd submit, I tried, I was auditioned,
Speaker 2: but it just wasn't happening. And I started so instead
Speaker 2: I started podcasts and I started yelling at the batch
Speaker 2: and I was like, wow, this is like something people
Speaker 2: are tuning in to see me, you know, which is fun.
Speaker 2: And as you see, like if you go to my Instagram,
Speaker 2: like I dress up as the characters, I put my face,
Speaker 2: you know. As the technology got better, I could do
Speaker 2: things on TikTok, so it was like this. It kind
Speaker 2: of evolved into my own kind of variety show, which
Speaker 2: has been the most fun. And then I get to
Speaker 2: meet you guys like, which has been like you know
Speaker 2: it's funny because like I talk a lot of shit.
Speaker 2: I've talked shit about both of you. I just read
Speaker 2: you heard it, but right, and it is a joke
Speaker 2: and it's meant to be ball busty, and I'm not
Speaker 2: looking to like ruin anyone's day or night. And it's
Speaker 2: cool when people get it, you know, like when you
Speaker 2: guys laugh along with it, Like I think it's cool
Speaker 2: and it's not meant to like, you know, sometimes I
Speaker 2: get sent these things that are like, you know, I
Speaker 2: can see people try try to like send me the
Speaker 2: jokes they have, and I'm like, you should probably stay
Speaker 2: on the sidelines. You should probably be a fewer as
Speaker 2: opposed to a commentator. But and I'm sure you guys
Speaker 2: get these messages that are heinous and also really nice
Speaker 2: too because people, you know, it's nice that you get
Speaker 2: to give people an opportunity to like put their brain
Speaker 2: on the shelf and you know, stop thinking about their
Speaker 2: own issues.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's usually always it's always more good than bad. Oh,
Speaker 6: what is one thing?
Speaker 1: Is there anything that you wish the franchise did differently?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I have so many ideas. I mean,
Speaker 2: the Golden Bachelor, I've been talking about for years. The
Speaker 2: Golden Bachelor's going to be fantastic. I can't wait. I
Speaker 2: am so excited in a weird way because the Bachelor works,
Speaker 2: and you know, the Bachelor is good because you have
Speaker 2: to have some reality to your reality TV. So I
Speaker 2: think the Bachelor's great because it is realistic for twenty
Speaker 2: seven year old women to want to marry a guy
Speaker 2: who's in his thirties or younger whatever. I think when
Speaker 2: you flip it, it was always less realistic to have
Speaker 2: like these twenty four year old dudes be like fighting
Speaker 2: to get married. It just never rang true, especially from
Speaker 2: the type of guy who wanted to go on the show.
Speaker 2: I always thought they should have made the Bachelorette like
Speaker 2: this woman who's killing it in whatever industry she's in
Speaker 2: off of a divorce of some kind and just like
Speaker 2: a boss ass like thirty eight year old woman. And
Speaker 2: then you make the men on the show in their
Speaker 2: forties and fifties, and I always thought that was like
Speaker 2: a more fun angle, because men in their forties or
Speaker 2: the fifties are a little bit embarrassing in the way
Speaker 2: like they they've they've made it in some sort of career.
Speaker 2: They're a little bit too cocky. They're only surrounded by
Speaker 2: a French you know, friends of their own making. They
Speaker 2: don't really go outside of their own bubbles, so they
Speaker 2: would be hilarious. And then you'd have this like boss
Speaker 2: ass chick who's like, you know, turning down these overconfident
Speaker 2: dudes in shirts with Paisley collars and cuffs. Like I
Speaker 2: just thought that would be like the evolution of this show.
Speaker 2: So I always thought where this is going where Like
Speaker 2: I thought The Bachelor is a better version of this,
Speaker 2: But I do think it's gonna be great with about
Speaker 2: Golden Batcheler. That was all. And then the other thing
Speaker 2: I always wanted was no more fantasy suite. We act
Speaker 2: we had the reality suite, which is which they ended
Speaker 2: up doing last season. Katie and I was like, you
Speaker 2: send the couple to Ikea and they put a bed
Speaker 2: together and then they see if they want to fuck,
Speaker 2: so you have like instead of you know, and then
Speaker 2: Katie and Zach kind of did that. They like went
Speaker 2: and built a bed. I'm like, that's more of whatever. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they went they Zach, you don't remember that, you're probably
Speaker 2: I mean that was her date was like, help me
Speaker 2: move into Austin. So I was for her hometown, right,
Speaker 2: it was her hometown, yes, So I those were always
Speaker 2: things that I wanted. I also, like, you know, I've
Speaker 2: always thought the show needed to evolve to include phones,
Speaker 2: Like I thought that like, hey, we're going to go
Speaker 2: through your dms like that should have been you know,
Speaker 2: an event and go you know, like I just think,
Speaker 2: like this connection to what it's really like to date
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, I thought we should have been
Speaker 2: moving towards that in a certain way. And I think
Speaker 2: The Golden Bachelor is a little bit of that because again,
Speaker 2: like we all want to watch our dad date if
Speaker 2: he has you know, if maybe you know, he doesn't
Speaker 2: have someone and he's looking to find someone, Like, wouldn't
Speaker 2: that be fun? So that's cool?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're excited to watch it. I know,
Speaker 5: we were on Chicks in the Office the other week
Speaker 5: and Rio was like, I'm.
Speaker 4: Here for the granny drama. I'm ready to watch them
Speaker 4: fight each other.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you don't get any of the bullshit of
Speaker 1: like hair for the wrong reasons, like everyone on that well,
Speaker 1: I mean, but everyone on that show.
Speaker 5: And at the same time, if there's like a seventy
Speaker 5: five year old. That's like there for instant followers like
Speaker 5: I just don't that's much.
Speaker 4: That's even better, right, yeah, right right?
Speaker 2: And and also just like you know, listen, we all
Speaker 2: have parents and we all watch them like kind of
Speaker 2: move through this twenty twenty three world that they're not
Speaker 2: really you know, aird for in a certain sense, like
Speaker 2: once they get outside of their kind of comfy bubbles,
Speaker 2: and it's like, that's what we want to see. We
Speaker 2: want to see someone who's you know, it kind of
Speaker 2: feels like twenty people in their twenties, thirties, whatever. We
Speaker 2: all know what's acceptable on camera. It's gonna be fun
Speaker 2: to see someone kind of just be a normal person
Speaker 2: on camera. And I hope that's what the.
Speaker 1: Case is well because and I think of because of
Speaker 1: social media, everyone's so self aware now that it's hard
Speaker 1: to get people to just really be themselves and just
Speaker 1: be like fuck it like there used to Reality TV
Speaker 1: used to go on and people like The Bachelor back
Speaker 1: in the day. I'm assuming people were just like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm going on TV.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because I'm gonna go on TV, I'm gonna do
Speaker 5: and say whatever I want, and then I'm gonna go home,
Speaker 5: and I'm only gonna have to hear feedback about it
Speaker 5: from my family and friends.
Speaker 4: I move on with my life and maybe my co workers.
Speaker 5: Whereas now there's so much self awareness going on these
Speaker 5: shows because you know that you're gonna hear feedback from
Speaker 5: all these people on social media.
Speaker 2: This is why I was a Braiden fan. I thought Braiden,
Speaker 2: you know, I like it was.
Speaker 3: I liked him.
Speaker 2: He was. I think he was. Ultimately he was proven
Speaker 2: to be himself, Like it didn't seem like, you know,
Speaker 2: he was wild.
Speaker 3: He was a little bit fun. He was, but that's
Speaker 3: why he was fun to watch.
Speaker 2: Like I don't think we're gonna see him without ear
Speaker 2: rings ever again, Like he's gonna have dangly earrings. He
Speaker 2: and he even said a very honest thing. He's like,
Speaker 2: who could get married after this much time getting to
Speaker 2: know someone like he was being open and honest, like
Speaker 2: and generally people know not to say that on the
Speaker 2: on The Bachelor, and he came out and said it,
Speaker 2: so I I that's why I kind of liked him.
Speaker 6: I liked I thought he was. I thought he was
Speaker 6: fun to watch.
Speaker 1: Uh, if if you had a best friend, let's say
Speaker 1: your best friend was going on the show, is there
Speaker 1: a season you would suggest for that person to watch,
Speaker 1: to watch like in preparation, in preparation, Yeah, I talking.
Speaker 5: About this the other week, like if you're going on
Speaker 5: The Bachelor, the batchel At, like just watch at least
Speaker 5: one season, like don't go in blind, like don't show
Speaker 5: up and be like, oh, I've never seen an episode,
Speaker 5: like I don't know what I'm getting myself into. And
Speaker 5: then we were like, what season would be like the
Speaker 5: season for Bachelor and Bachelorette to like prep yourself to
Speaker 5: go on this show.
Speaker 2: Probably Hannah G or not Hannah g Hannah Hannah Brown.
Speaker 2: Hannah Brown season. I think I'm gonna do a rewatch
Speaker 2: of that season.
Speaker 3: It has it all.
Speaker 2: It has like Hannah Brown season has like first of all,
Speaker 2: like the way Tyler conducted himself, like you just see
Speaker 2: like he you go okay, you know, like I don't
Speaker 2: know Tyler to me, like Tyler Cameron, Like basically she's
Speaker 2: like I don't want to fuck you because I know
Speaker 2: I want to fuck you. And then he's like okay,
Speaker 2: and then he's considered like a feminist icon. But like
Speaker 2: just to see how that kind of unfolded and to
Speaker 2: see that guy what was his name, Luke p Luke
Speaker 2: P and the way he acted and kind of just
Speaker 2: seemed like he was like out of his mind, you know,
Speaker 2: like and and to see the Peter stuff that happened
Speaker 2: with the you know, the windmill, Like I think that
Speaker 2: kind of had everything in it, like where it had
Speaker 2: like the you know, it had drama with the fantasy suites.
Speaker 2: It kind of showed you, like how to be a
Speaker 2: mench on the show. It showed you how to stand out.
Speaker 2: It showed you what stands out and what people don't
Speaker 2: like and what people like. So I think that would
Speaker 2: be a good season for someone to watch.
Speaker 6: I like that.
Speaker 1: And then last question before we get into a game,
Speaker 1: you're Mount Rushmore.
Speaker 3: See I.
Speaker 2: And then here's the other thing it's been it's been
Speaker 2: a while, I guess my Mount Rushmore.
Speaker 3: I was a.
Speaker 2: Huge Jojo fan. I was just a huge like, couldn't
Speaker 2: have been a bigger fan of her. And the comfy,
Speaker 2: cozy sweaters she used to wear. That was like a
Speaker 2: big thing. Wait what she used to always wear these
Speaker 2: sweaters that I'd be like, she just looked like she
Speaker 2: was like she is commercial.
Speaker 4: Like yeah, she likes. She likes a good knit sweater.
Speaker 2: Loved a good knit I would say, who that guy, Chad?
Speaker 2: I mean like he was just such a wild kid
Speaker 2: from her season.
Speaker 1: He was a wild child, that he was wild great
Speaker 1: nowadays too, right.
Speaker 2: I loved Claire just because you know Claire, you know,
Speaker 2: on her own season. You're like, oh, I can tell
Speaker 2: like why dating has been kind of difficult, like you know,
Speaker 2: like you kind of watch the way she goes through
Speaker 2: these things and it's like, you know, and we're all
Speaker 2: in our own way and dating again, like I'm thirty
Speaker 2: seven and single on the special I talk about it.
Speaker 2: It's like, you know, I mentioned the special like I'm
Speaker 2: the issue when you get to it. And you know,
Speaker 2: also Claire was it wasn't really fair that and I
Speaker 2: the audience didn't like Claire because because they made her
Speaker 2: like oh, it's the elder bachelorette and it's like she's
Speaker 2: thirty five, Like fuck off, Like it was like almost
Speaker 2: like this like shitty, like oh here's what we think
Speaker 2: of the audience thing too? Yeah, yeah, gradually right, and
Speaker 2: you're like, I'm older than this person. Can can am
Speaker 2: I going to pass away? Soon?
Speaker 3: Like you know, like the way it was talked about.
Speaker 3: But so I really liked.
Speaker 2: Watching Claire and I will say Ari is one of
Speaker 2: those like underrated bachelors because his season, the way it
Speaker 2: ended with Becca and Lauren I think her name was Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's one of the more wild endings to any season,
Speaker 2: like the idea that they all signed that he signed
Speaker 2: up for that Like, well.
Speaker 1: I was, I was following that season like I was.
Speaker 1: I was, I was going on the next season. I
Speaker 1: remember getting the call like a week before and watching
Speaker 1: that and thinking, Oh, this is.
Speaker 6: Fake, like this is all fake, Like this has right
Speaker 6: and be real.
Speaker 1: And that's how I went into the show, thinking like,
Speaker 1: oh this ship, this has got to be fake.
Speaker 6: And then I get there, I'm like, oh no, it's
Speaker 6: it's not right.
Speaker 2: It's it's just such a that ending, like and I'm
Speaker 2: giving a mount rushmore of just like memorable people at
Speaker 2: this point, you know, from.
Speaker 6: When I neither of us made the fucking list, but
Speaker 6: he talked about us. How do you feel about that?
Speaker 2: True?
Speaker 4: That's okay.
Speaker 5: I got paired with horn gree So I'll take that
Speaker 5: instead of about rushmore.
Speaker 2: Hor I'm doing that on stage night. I'm gonna give
Speaker 2: it a show. I don't know if horn gree is
Speaker 2: a good enough word for it, but we'll see. But yeah, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: there's there's nothing against you, just I guess like I
Speaker 2: love the messiness of the When the show gets messy
Speaker 2: is when I'm like and it's just when I'm just
Speaker 2: like again Pilot, Pete's mom might be on that Mount
Speaker 2: Rushmore for me, like she was just such an intricate
Speaker 2: part of that season, like in a way that was
Speaker 2: like Chef's Kiss, Like there was nothing like Pilot.
Speaker 6: People you'll never be able to recreate it.
Speaker 5: No, it's really when they get they almost get lucky
Speaker 5: with people like Barb or Chat or even like Claire
Speaker 5: Crawley is like amazing TV. They just got an amazing
Speaker 5: personality for TV where it's things that like you can't
Speaker 5: plan some of this, Like you could not have planned
Speaker 5: for Ari picking Becca and then being like never mind,
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go back and choose Lauren. Like you can
Speaker 5: have some help orchestrating all of that, but like you
Speaker 5: have to kind of just get lucky with something someone
Speaker 5: doing something kind of.
Speaker 2: Crazy and yes, I'll do it on camera after we're
Speaker 2: done with the show. Like what.
Speaker 3: You're out of your mind.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you have to be though. That's what's great about
Speaker 6: to show you got to cast people.
Speaker 1: That are out of your mind. All right, you want
Speaker 1: to you want to do the game? Sure, rapid questions.
Speaker 4: What you got a quick game here? We do this
