19
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:09,960
Speaker 3: let's start a breaking down the season premiere of Joey's premiere. Yes,

20
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 3: we're here for Bachelor episode season one.

21
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed the way that they kicked this one off.

22
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 2: It is means nothing, I'm sure. But they start off

23
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 2: the season by showing Joey crying at the rose altar,

24
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 2: the final rose altar, and they show a car pulling

25
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 2: away with one final rose left on the table while

26
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 2: Joey cries. Now, Ben, what's your interpretation of this, because

27
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 2: I'll tell you I'll tell you mine first. It's that

28
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 2: he just sent home the runner up and he's taking

29
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 2: a break. He's very upset, obviously, as everyone would be,

30
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,559
Speaker 2: and they're just showing the in between before his final

31
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 2: pick comes out. But it was interesting. It was this

32
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 2: is an interesting way to kick it off instead of

33
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 2: just like, Hey, I'm Joey and I'm driving it convertible

34
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 2: through Malibu.

35
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 3: That isn't interesting. I'm crazy, Ashley, I I must be.

36
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 3: I thought that was the scene from Charity season. I

37
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 3: didn't put together that that was Joey on his final episode.

38
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 3: Is that crazy? Is that just me missing it?

39
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: Mate?

40
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 3: Yeah? Because of his hair, because the haircut, because yeah,

41
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 3: he does look good.

42
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 2: And then would be standing there, it's Charity standing there.

43
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 2: He's the one. He's walk up and then walk out.

44
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 3: Good point, good point. Yeah, that has to be the

45
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 3: in between. I don't know if he's come out publicly

46
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 3: and said he's happy yet typically.

47
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 2: He has have they I don't know he seemed happy

48
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 2: that he basically was like I'm happy.

49
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have no doubt that he's like doing well,

50
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 3: and so it has to be the in between. But

51
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 3: it is a good way to kick off the first episode.

52
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 3: We've talked about it every season. The first episode is

53
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 3: necessary because you've got to start a season and you've

54
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 3: got to introduce us to all the women or the men,

55
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: depending on what season is. But for the Bachelor, it's

56
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 3: the women, and we got to get to get refamiliar

57
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 3: with Joey. For any fans that maybe didn't watch Charity season,

58
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 3: we want to know about him a little bit. But

59
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 3: it so it did spice this first episode up a

60
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 3: little bit, which you and I both appreciate.

61
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: I know, yeah, yeah for sure. Now I will say

62
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 2: this episode felt really long. It dragged a bit. I

63
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 2: was like, because you know, when we watch our condensed episodes,

64
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 2: is an hour and twenty twenty five minutes usually feels

65
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: pretty quick. This like felt I was like, midway through

66
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: it was like, I still have a half. That doesn't

67
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: mean that I wasn't bored. I just felt it just

68
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 2: felt like there wasn't you know, it was just like

69
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 2: Night one, as everybody knows our opinions on Night one.

70
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 2: So what I want to do is go through the

71
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: women's arrivals and I just want to talk about the

72
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 2: people that I really remember their names. I feel like

73
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 2: I actually did a pretty good job of remembering everybody's name,

74
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 2: but like the people who really stood out to me.

75
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 2: And Lexi's the first girl on the limo, and she

76
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 2: really stands out to me. She's sedunnang. She looks like

77
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 2: she could be a supermodel U. Lexi says that she

78
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 2: got chills when she found out that Joy was the bachelor.

79
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 2: She has a health condition that we don't really know

80
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 2: what it is yet, but it means that she may

81
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 2: not be able to have kids, and this is something

82
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 2: that has been worrisome to her In dating. Of course,

83
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 2: that is a big thing to bring up. When do

84
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: you bring something like that up.

85
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 3: I don't think it's that's tough. I mean, I feel

86
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 3: like it's early, but it's not on the first date.

87
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 2: It's like a third date.

88
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 3: Well, I think it's there. I think for the shows,

89
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 3: I think it's the first time.

90
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 2: They have a one on one oh yeah for the show.

91
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think if it's not a one on

92
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 3: one opportunity, then I feel like it's like the second

93
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 3: group date. Once there's some familiarity, once she knows that, like, hey,

94
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,919
Speaker 3: Joey's actually interested in her and like they've got to

95
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 3: know each other and he's kept around, I think it's

96
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 3: that would be the time, because there's really no reason

97
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 3: for her to do it unless she knows that Joey's

98
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 3: actually pursuing her.

99
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I totally agree with that. The next girl

100
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 2: that I find to be very memorable from this episode

101
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 2: is Maria. She is from Canada. She comes out waving

102
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 2: a Canadian flag and the Canadian flag gets blurred out.

103
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 2: Is that weird?

104
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 3: It is weird? It's or.

105
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 4: Maybe they didn't have the rights for it, and somebody

106
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 4: on the rights right.

107
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 3: It is odd. I mean, maybe Bachelor Canada can be

108
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 3: the only ones that shows the Canadian flag.

109
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: Well, she is a firecracker for sure. She she seems

110
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 2: like very alluring to Joey. I think he thinks she's sexy.

111
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 2: She's definitely got swag and confidence, and we see more

112
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 2: of that with her when they have their one on

113
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 2: one session, which is when they talk about movies and

114
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 2: stuff like that, and she's like, I didn't want to

115
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 2: be the one to kiss you, but you know, it's

116
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 2: just so it just felt so right natural. And she's

117
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 2: definitely a contender for me.

118
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 3: I don't like that she so quickly changed her mind.

119
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 3: Why make this statement I don't want to kiss him

120
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 3: and then kiss him.

121
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 2: Because it's just she felt natural in the moment.

122
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 3: Ben Jeez, I mean Kelsey A brings out a voodoo doll.

123
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 3: I feel like that was ke A.

124
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 2: I love her. She's also huge contender for me. Brings

125
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 2: up the voodoo doll, says she can like give you know,

126
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 2: she wants to manipulate Joey through other process right, wants

127
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: to give him the voodoo doll, a little tennis thing.

128
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 2: She's so cute. I really like her demeanor. They have

129
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 2: a really nice one on one time and a kiss,

130
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 2: and so far, I feel like it's been easy for

131
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,359
Speaker 2: me with like the Lima pairing, the Limo exit to

132
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 2: what happens when they have their one on one time.

133
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 2: It seems like he's quite obvious and the ones that

134
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 2: he's pretty interested in right off the bat. Now Alison

135
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 2: and Lauren. Big deal here with Alison and Lauren, and

136
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 2: you can speak to this because they're sisters. They're not twins,

137
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 2: they're two years apart. And I mean I went on

138
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 2: the Bachelor with my sister. I mean I went on

139
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 2: a Bachelor in Paradise with my sister, which is, I

140
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: honestly think, a totally different experience to have with your

141
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 2: sister than competing for the one direct man in front

142
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 2: of you. And uh, well, we see lesi later that

143
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 2: Allison is the one. Alison, the younger sister, is the

144
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 2: one who gets the first rows of the rose ceremony.

145
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 2: And then Lauren, of course, the older sister, who's all

146
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 2: the entire time showing a lot of competition with her sister,

147
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 2: like she can't be the one who kisses him first.

148
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 2: My clock, my biological clock, is ticking harder and fast

149
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 2: hers he gets the last rose of the rose ceremony.

150
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 2: They at first tried to pretend like they're not going

151
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: to tell the group of girls that they're sisters, but

152
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 2: that didn't last long, and it didn't last long without

153
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 2: telling Joey too, because Joey was like, you guys are

154
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 2: both in the same area. You have similar upbringings. So

155
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 2: they tell him I just would I could not. I

156
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 2: couldn't do this with my sister because yeah, I would

157
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 2: be like just demoralized with the first kiss, with like

158
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 2: rose ceremonies. I am actually surprised. I think he keeps

159
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 2: him around together for one more week and then I

160
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 2: think he's gonna split them up, because I don't think

161
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 2: he will. I don't think he wants to deal with it.

162
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean it's he needs to send one

163
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 3: of them home, and he needs to do it early.

164
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 3: You know, it's fine to go on with your sister

165
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 3: or your twin in the twins case, uh, if you

166
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 3: have the right attitude towards it. But I feel like

167
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 3: there's way too much competition between these two sisters. Maybe

168
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 3: not the younger sister, I don't think she maybe cares

169
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 3: as much. Yeah, but the older one is like staring

170
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 3: and like breathing down the neck of the younger sister. Yeah,

171
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 3: and that's that's never gonna go well or end well.

172
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 3: It's always gonna be weird. And the longer they're both there,

173
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 3: say he does pick one of them at the end,

174
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 3: it only makes home visits even weirder. So he's got

175
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 3: to decide quick, and I think he's more into the

176
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 3: younger sister. I think, I honestly think that the older

177
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 3: sister kind of she's edgier. She's edgier, and her time

178
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 3: is limited, and she just is gonna say things I

179
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 3: think to Joey to make him be like, yeah, not interested.

180
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 3: I think it's weird.

181
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 2: Liked the shotgun beer with her at the egg at

182
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 2: the at Limo Exit.

183
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 3: She was impressive. That was a very good, good talent.

184
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 3: I mean, I think she's a good time. Like. I

185
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 3: think she's a lot of fun, and I think she's

186
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 3: gonna be like great, she's twenty eight years old, Like

187
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 3: she's gonna be all right. But I think she'll go

188
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 3: home pretty soon.

189
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, but I think she would have lasted longer

190
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 2: if her sister wasn't there. But I don't think he

191
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 2: wants that direct company.

192
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 3: I agree there. Yeah, I fully agree with you on that.

193
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 2: Now there's a whole other half of women to come.

194
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 2: He has the most women of all.

195
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 3: Thirty two two.

196
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 2: Caitlin comes in. She's a nuclear chemist. They do a

197
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 2: little experiment to see if they have chemistry. That one

198
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 2: was that was memorable for me Jen, I think she

199
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 2: is definitely top five. She comes in the golf court,

200
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,839
Speaker 2: in a golf court, and she says, like, when I

201
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 2: find out you're a bachelor, I had to quickly race

202
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 2: over here from Miami. She's going to school to be

203
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 2: a physician's assistant. And she was like made a big

204
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 2: deal out of the fact that she was not going

205
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 2: to be on the Bachelor unless he was the Bachelor.

206
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 3: I mean, you also have to bring up the you know, Daisy,

207
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 3: they have a pelotal package about her. She has an

208
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 3: incredible some incredible story life experience. But and I think

209
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 3: she's I mean, she's like my top one right now. Yeah,

210
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 3: I was just telling him just that. But it doesn't

211
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 3: help that they play like the Winner's music behind her

212
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 3: as she exits out a limo. It's like, of course,

213
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 3: Daves is going to be there a long time now,

214
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 3: Like I know she's going to be there a long

215
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 3: time because they played like the beautiful like princess music

216
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 3: to her stepping out of the limos. It's like, you

217
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 3: just gave it away, show like she's there. If you

218
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 3: want to put money in Vegas on who sticks around,

219
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 3: Daisy's the one.

220
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 2: I totally agree with you. It was almost it was

221
00:11:55,320 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 2: almost too much. It was like you are like, she's

222
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 2: really she's really in our face right now.

223
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's is she Either she's and I like her.

224
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 3: I do. I think she's great. I don't obviously know

225
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 3: her well. I know her from this little segment. She's

226
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 3: either going to be somebody that like makes me so

227
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,319
Speaker 3: happy watching the show or one of my like most

228
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 3: heartbreaking exits ever because I feel like we're going to

229
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 3: fall in love with her and then like she's either

230
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 3: gonna make us so happy because we'll be like, yes,

231
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: Daisy is great, or she's gonna make us so sad

232
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 3: because she's gonna go home. Like I think she's really

233
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 3: going to pull her our heartstring. She's beautiful, she's kind,

234
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 3: she's considerate. She's sitting next to Joey, definitely helping Joey

235
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 3: get through this experience. She has a life story that's

236
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 3: been very impactful. She has everything to be like either

237
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 3: the chosen like person or the next bachelorette.

238
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, so what you talk about was like the life

239
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 2: thing is she is a cochlear implant. She ended up

240
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 2: losing her hearing at the age or starting to lose

241
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 2: it at seventeen, it got progressively worse and just last

242
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 2: is last year she got the cochlear implant and it's been

243
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 2: like game changing ever since. And she said she did

244
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 2: have a little moment in there with all the girls

245
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 2: where she was getting a little anxious because the sound

246
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 2: when you have all that background sound in addition to

247
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 2: whatever conversation you're having in front of you, is very overwhelming.

248
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: But she also said to Joey during their one on

249
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 2: one time that she she was like, I'm just excited

250
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 2: for whoever you end up with. And I was like, Wow,

251
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 2: that's not something you hear every every day on the Bachelor, And.

252
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 3: I'm guessing she's probably being very truthful when she says that,

253
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 3: Like she seems like a type person. It's like, Hey, Joey,

254
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 3: I'm so happy to be here. I want to be here.

255
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 4: I think you're great, but I'm I'm just happy for

256
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 4: whoever gets.

257
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 3: To spend their life with you. Which if I was

258
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 3: a bachelor and somebody said to me, I'd be like,

259
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 3: my goodness, you are like I couldn't get I mean,

260
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 3: I'm done, Like you're the best.

261
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, It's really sweet. So another one on one times

262
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 2: that stood out to me was with Jess, she gets

263
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 2: the first kiss of the night. I was quite surprised.

264
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 2: I was, okay, yeah, I was all right, I'm glad

265
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 2: that you're saying that because I was surprised. It just

266
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 2: didn't seem like I didn't feel like a ton of

267
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 2: romantic chemistry and they both mutually went in for it.

268
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think, I think if you were

269
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 3: there in the moment, I don't think Joey's gonna be

270
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 3: very good at small talk. He does seem like a

271
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 3: very deep person. He feels like a very intentional person.

272
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 3: He seems like somebody that's going to be an incredible bachelor.

273
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 3: A plus for Joey on night one, awesome, awesome, just

274
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 3: very likable, very like attractive, confident, cool, never seemed super nervous,

275
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 3: definitely made sure the girls felt comfortable. I think, and

276
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 3: I don't think it's e and like a negative. I

277
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 3: just don't think he's going to be great at small talk.

278
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 3: I don't think he's gonna love like having those weird

279
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 3: conversations you're going to have. So I do imagine that

280
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 3: he's gonna be making out with people when like things

281
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 3: get weird, Like I think he's gonna be kissing them,

282
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 3: And I think that's what happened with her.

283
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 2: They get along very nicely. Sure, but yeah, she comes

284
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 2: in and she tells everyone that she got a little

285
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 2: smoochie poo where I was like, okay, the producers definitely

286
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 2: put that in her ear to be like and that

287
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 2: maybe you could drop to the ladies that like, you kissed,

288
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 2: because it is the weirdest thing to offer up on

289
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 2: your own on night one.

290
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 3: Oh, and it's just such It was such bad timing.

291
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 3: I mean, if you don't want to be that girl

292
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 3: or that boy, don't.

293
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 4: Be that girl or boy, like, don't be the one

294
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 4: to say that.

295
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 2: Say no, she didn't. She said, I don't care. She

296
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 2: said I would do it again. I don't care. She

297
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 2: would actually interrupt again, So Taylor, during Taylor's time, she interrupts,

298
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 2: And I mean, it's never a good look to interrupt

299
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 2: when you legitimately already had your time night one and

300
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 2: you told everyone that you kiss What else are you

301
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 2: going back for? Miss And what are.

302
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 3: You trying to I mean, are you literally just trying

303
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 3: to get the house to absolutely hate you from night one? Like?

304
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 3: Is that? What goals do you have here? Because she's

305
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 3: doing everything right to just get a target on her back.

306
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's not like she's not like gonna be really

307
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 2: villainous though, Like I think there's part of her that

308
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 2: I do like I enjoy. She's good watch, she's good TV.

309
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 3: Sure, But when she was like I'm gonna get the

310
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 3: first impression Rows, I'm so happy again in my mind,

311
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 3: I'm like, I hope he gets a home.

312
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 2: Like he's already thinking it. He's like, oh man, I

313
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 2: regret kissing her because she's already becoming that person.

314
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 3: And then it just kind of open up the floggates

315
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 3: for more makeouts. I mean he did, he he had

316
00:16:58,760 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 3: himself a time.

317
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 2: He did. He kissed so many people. Uh, he kissed Daisy,

318
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 2: he kissed I think he kissed Jen, right, I guess

319
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 2: he definitely kissed Jen. Yeah, he kissed Alison one of

320
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:14,400
Speaker 2: the sisters.

321
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 3: Did he kiss Leah Leah?

322
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 2: Yes, he kissed Leah after giving her the first impression Rose,

323
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 2: and then he also kissed Lexi who new Orleans Lexi? Yeah?

324
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 2: So oh and Maria. He also kissed Maria. Yeah.

325
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 3: I mean that's a that's a pretty good amount on

326
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 3: Night one, Like that's hey, you know more power to everybody,

327
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 3: But like, you don't see that every time, and I'm

328
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 3: sure there's a few maybe they'd even show so with

329
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 3: yeah kissed eight people. Yeah, eight of the thirty two

330
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 3: kiss one fourth of the population in the Bachelor Mansion.

331
00:17:52,800 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 3: It's a lot.

332
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 2: Let's talk about Leah who ends up getting Leah. I

333
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,360
Speaker 2: think Leah who ends up getting the first impression Rose,

334
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 2: who I really would not have guessed this if you

335
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 2: would like put us back the moment where he met

336
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 2: her on stage at after the final rows. Sure, and

337
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 2: you know she was the one that like got to

338
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,199
Speaker 2: come on his season from the basically the audience, and

339
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 2: then she got that card which she wasn't allowed to

340
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 2: open until she got in the Bachelor Mansion. Like, I

341
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 2: didn't feel like he was super into her like that

342
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 2: night on the stage, but it was definitely genuine here.

343
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 2: I think there were a few more people that he

344
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 2: feels like passion with, but I think this was just

345
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 2: kind of like a nice gesture for her behaving the

346
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 2: way that she did when opening that card, which the

347
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 2: card says you're able to steal one on one date

348
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 2: from like any girl whenever you want. And I had

349
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,199
Speaker 2: to couldn't help. But wonder what my reaction would have

350
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 2: been to getting that. I think it would have been similar.

351
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 2: But the way that she was so emotional, she just

352
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 2: didn't want to ruffle any feathers, She did not want

353
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 2: to hurt anyone, steal anything. It was super sweet.

354
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 4: I mean, she's definitely she definitely is the opposite of

355
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 4: what Jess Jesse.

356
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 3: Jesse is it. She is Jess. She's trying to just

357
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 3: do this thing with respect. Again, I think she had

358
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 3: a great perspective when it came to Joey said, I'm

359
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,640
Speaker 3: going to give you autonomy, like you get to pick

360
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 3: these one on ones, and so if you want to

361
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 3: take me, great, If you don't, like, I don't want

362
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 3: to be the one to like force my way into

363
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 3: a date with you. I think it'd be really weird

364
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 3: if he was like, I'm going to take this person

365
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 3: to this date and she was said, no, it's actually

366
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 3: going to be me this time. Let the chemistry kind

367
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 3: of come about as it will. Great memory by the

368
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 3: way that she was on after the final rows, you know,

369
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 3: that's and that like their chemistry connection you know, wasn't

370
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 3: maybe as strong.

371
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 2: I didn't feel it then.

372
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, But the move to burn it.

373
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 2: Oh, I thought that was a natural move. I thought

374
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: that was what would that came right to my head

375
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,719
Speaker 2: was just okay, in the fire in front of these girls.

376
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 3: I thought she was going to give to somebody else.

377
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:17,679
Speaker 3: But then I was like, who would you give it to?

378
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 3: Or she'd give to Joey to give somebody else. But

379
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 3: you're saying like a fire was like a good little.

380
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 2: For getting rid of this moment.

381
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, Yeah, she's going to make.

382
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 2: Friends by burning that.

383
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, she's definitely gonna make friends. People are gonna,

384
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 3: I think, just respect her for that. I think they're

385
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 3: going to really appreciate that gesture and she might make

386
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 3: a lot of friends in the house. I don't know

387
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 3: yet if she's the one for Joey, but she did

388
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 3: get the first impression rose, which is always a big deal.

389
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 3: Like we don't see first impression roses go home early

390
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 3: very often at all.

391
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Yeah. No, she'll be around for a while,

392
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 2: but maybe not. I'm not putting her in like my

393
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 2: top five. I did make a mistake earlier. I just

394
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 2: want to point out I said that I said, Lexi, Okay,

395
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: so they kiss, But when I was talking about the

396
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 2: voodoo doll. I meant to say Kelsey. There are two

397
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 2: Kelsey's and one of them streaks. Yeah, I think Kelsey A.

398
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 2: I think Kelsey A. Sorry, guys, she.

399
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 3: Gave Kelsey gave the voodoo doll to Joe.

400
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, did they? I thought they kissed too? Yeah,

401
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,239
Speaker 2: I think so. So there you go.

402
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,479
Speaker 3: Lots and lots of hard to keep up with at

403
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 3: this point.

404
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I'm trying to go through my top now,

405
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 2: so I would say Kelsey A, Lexi, Maria, and Jen

406
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 2: those are my top four right now.

407
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 3: I like Daisy.

408
00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 2: Oh my god, no, sorry, I that's my top five.

409
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I totally blanked.

410
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say Leah, Daisy, Kelsey.

411
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:12,360
Speaker 3: A, and goodness.

412
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 4: Let me throw one more in here that I did

413
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 4: think had it.

414
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 3: I think Maria, honestly, I just feel like she does

415
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,399
Speaker 3: kind of have the confidence in the swagger to keep

416
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 3: him interested for a long period of time. She would

417
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 3: not be my pick at the end. I think Daisy

418
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 3: is kind of like the surefire bet at this point

419
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 3: to be there at the end. Ashley. That brings us

420
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 3: up to the Rose ceremony. A bunch of people went

421
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 3: home that we don't.

422
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,919
Speaker 2: Know, don't really remember. The one that I remember was

423
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 2: the one whose name is Chandler because she said, I'm Chandler,

424
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 2: you're Joey, and I'll always be there for you. Very cute.

425
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 3: That is very cute. The preview for the rest of

426
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 3: the season looks like a normal Bachelor season. There's some tears,

427
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 3: there's some crying, there's some people being upset. There wasn't

428
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,639
Speaker 3: It was lacking, which is fine if it didn't exist

429
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 3: like the big spin. You know, we didn't have the

430
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 3: fence jump, no fence job. We didn't have those moments

431
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 3: that really like shook us.

432
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,959
Speaker 2: They're trying to make the final scene that because they

433
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 2: actually don't have one, And that's fine.

434
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 3: If it's just a good old, genuine love story, I'm

435
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 3: fine with it. If there's not a big moment, I

436
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 3: bet the drama does. I mean, this house was already

437
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 3: very dramatic for Night one. Let's be honest, Like there

438
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 3: was a lot of kind of bad mouthing or frustrations

439
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 3: or whatever even for Night one.

440
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 4: So I do think some drama will come from the house.

441
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, who it will be surrounded by? Yet we do

442
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 2: not know? All right, Well, guys, so what you're thinking.

443
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 2: You know your tops. I bet you guys agree with

444
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 2: us in our top five.

445
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, there'd be some. I think it'll be shocking at

446
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 3: this point to see anybody disagree. But we're off and running, Ashley.

447
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 3: See episode one is done. We'll be back next week

448
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 3: for episode two. We won't stop until the show stops,

449
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,199
Speaker 3: which will be after Joey's season.

450
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 2: What do you mean that sounds like ominous?

451
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't mean it that way.

452
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 2: This is not the last season for what we know.

453
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no announcements have been made. No, no,

454
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 3: we don't know anything. We'll just keep going until Joey season. Anyways,

455
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 3: until next week.
