6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: little tired. How are you? I can't imagine how I'm

7
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 1: just like jet lagged, like just a little bit back

00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 1: and forth. You know, it's five day trip. You don't

9
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: really get a like situated. But I got a good night,

10
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,880
Speaker 1: a good night's sleep on the plane. It was just hilarious.

11
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: Tell us all about this wedding. It looked beautiful. We

12
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: saw I saw the pictures on social media. Uh it

13
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: was in Italy if I'm correct, right, Yeah, it was gorgeous.

14
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: It was my best friend's wedding. Um. It was very

15
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 1: emotional and the best way, just like super sweet and

16
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: touching and very very romantic. It was at an abbey

17
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: about an hour and a half north of Rome. But

18
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: it was like an old abbey. It's like not used

19
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: for church services anymore. It's really used as like a

20
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: wedding venue. But they have guest rooms there, so it's

21
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: not like a full blown hotel. But it's kind of

22
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: like if you were to turn an old nineteen fifty

23
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: abbey into an Airbnb. Basically, it was gorgeous, everything was

24
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: candle it It's just like that super soft romance. And

25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: it was cool to see your best friend of about well,

26
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: I met her when I was in sixth grade, but

27
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: I guess we've been like best friends for fourteen years

28
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: and she it's just cool to see, Um, your friend who,

29
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: like you imagine your wedding with for years and years

30
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: and like danju about the guy you're going to end

31
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: up with, CE do that and truly end up meaning

32
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: like the perfect person for them. So this has built

33
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: in nineteen. No no, no no, no twelve. I thought you

34
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: said nineteen. I've never heard of an abbey being built

35
00:01:54,520 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: nineteen wedding venue. All right, we are. I know exactly

36
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: where this abby was at. You want to know why

37
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 1: because um, one of our producers on this show has

38
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: Jared on Fine Friends and we are looking for you

39
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: all and and we saw the exact location. Were like,

40
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: h that's an interesting location. It's like, yeah, an hour

41
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: and a half north and it looks like you're in

42
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: the middle of nowhere. That's hilarious. I don't know how

43
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: they all ended up having each other on Find My Friends,

44
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: but it is always funny to see the destination where

45
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: Dean's at when he's late for their podcast. It's often

46
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: on a golf course, but you never know. Sometimes it

47
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: could be Mount Everest. Yeah, this time he's on a

48
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: in a sand trap on Whole sixteen in Los Angeles.

49
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: That's where this week. That's incredible. It is special to

50
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: see your friends get married, especially to see your friends

51
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,799
Speaker 1: get married. Just grow up, because it's so weird how

52
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: life works, isn't it. You You feel like a child

53
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: for so long you're under the supervision of somebody, your

54
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: your parents, or maybe it's at university, or maybe you

55
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: get you don't go to university out of high school,

56
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: and you're still just trying to make it work. And

57
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, life switches very fast. It

58
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: feels like it just like turns on a dime, and

59
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: you become a husband, you become a wife, you become

60
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: a partner, h then a parent. Uh. You know, life

61
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: moves quickly, and so those little moments that you can

62
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: just take a deep breath and see people who you've

63
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: lived with your whole life. Celebrate something special is incredible.

64
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: So the pictures they look great, obviously they never do

65
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: it justice. Um, but I'm happy. It was a great wedding,

66
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: Thank you. And it was nice to have a few

67
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: days for Jared and I just to eat in Rome.

68
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: We eat, we ate, we shopped, and it was just

69
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: a nice couple of times. Tell us your most romantic

70
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: moment with Jared and over these five days, feel free

71
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: to go into as much detail or as little detail

72
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: as you would like. Um well, we had the like um,

73
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: I just like you could like, say a nice dinner

74
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: you don't have to get. You could say, like a

75
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: nice bottle of wine looking at this Okay, Okay, I

76
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 1: was going to say, there was his dinner. We had

77
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: the most amazing LUs audio and it was just like

78
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: nice to take a little walk around. And actually, this

79
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 1: is so strange. Is this like so Ashley and Jared

80
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: of us. But we went to an American bar to

81
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: watch American football on Sunday, and he and I never

82
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: go and get beers at a bar and watch a

83
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: full game there, and we did, and we made friends

84
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: with other American tourists and it was really fun. I

85
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: sell his videos too. That looked really fun. I love

86
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: one of my favorite things. When I used to live

87
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: in Peru um in Cousco, there was a a bar

88
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: that a lot of tourists would stop at on their

89
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,679
Speaker 1: way down the um from Machu Pichu and they'd have lunch.

90
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't go often, but I try to go,

91
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: you know, once every couple of weeks and just stop

92
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: in there and see these tourists from all over the

93
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: world really stop begin to like grab their first cheeseburger

94
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: in Peru fries and watch football or watch whatever sports

95
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: is on TV. It's just like a little like reminder

96
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: of home. It was fun for me to see that too,

97
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 1: by you know, because I was there. And you know,

98
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: what's what's interesting about that is that, like a lot

99
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: of times, if we were going to go watch a

100
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: football game and a bar in America, we wouldn't talk

101
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: to people around us, right, We'd stick to our own table,

102
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: Like we may exchange a few little mess you know,

103
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: a little few little comments and high fives and pounds

104
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: and all that, but we would never like talk to

105
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: them for hours. And we did that with multiple people.

106
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: And it's just cool the way, like you get bonded

107
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 1: over your own culture when you're away from it. But

108
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: it's also of course nice to explore the other you know,

109
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: the actual culture that you're in the midstuff. Um. But anyway,

110
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: speaking of couple time and the origin of these relationships,

111
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: it's paradise time. It is paradise time. And hopefully, um,

112
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: some of these couples that we saw in last night's episode,

113
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 1: we'll emderge as long lasting couples as we and uh yeah,

114
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: I'm written for them. There's a couple of good little

115
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 1: love stories of unfolding right now. But should we break

116
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 1: down the episode after this break Yeah, But before we do,

00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: the end of this show, very lucky suitors on the

157
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: beach in Mexico. We did see in the teaser that

158
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: our very own Ashley Uh is gonna be She's gonna

159
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: be joining Uh these these contestants in Paradise at some

160
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: point with her husband Jared, but that wasn't happening in

161
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: the first episode. Instead, the first episode is kind of

162
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 1: our introduction to the season. We get to meet the

163
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 1: initial cast, So this first episode is really where we

164
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: get to meet the contestants, get to know their personalities,

165
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: see what they're looking for, and hear who their first

166
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: impressions are really leaning towards Ashley. You get jacked for

167
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: Paradise every season. I do want to ask you a

168
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 1: little behind the scenes here as a reminder, please do

169
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: these contestants are showing up to Mexico right Uh, they

170
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: are going to the Vedanta initially to do COVID testing

171
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: and everything they need they need to do. How many

172
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: days are you waiting in the hotel? When do you

173
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: find out if you're you know, first feet on the beach,

174
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 1: and then what is the drive like to this resort

175
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 1: in Sallylita. So just kind of walk us through the

176
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: behind the scenes prepping for this moment that you do

177
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: walk down the stairs. How long are the stairs? Give

178
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: us the details. So the original cast is there for

179
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: about four nights at a on toe, which is really

180
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 1: no different than the cast for the main show Bachelor Bachelorette.

181
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 1: You know, you're doing photoshoots, you're during press, you're doing

182
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: all these tests, you're doing like your psychological tests, you

183
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 1: are you know, you're just getting the works done. But

184
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 1: when we're in Fernanta, it's really nice because you get

185
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: unlimited room service, or at least so that was the

186
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: situation with us unlimited and we had unlimited drinks. Is

187
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: back with Juring season two, Season three from me? Now, yeah,

188
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,959
Speaker 1: I think we I think we still have like do

189
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: unlimited food. When Jared and I went there, I know

190
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: you don't have to pay for like I don't want

191
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: to say that because that just might be for their favorites.

192
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: They might not give that everybody. Actually, we like you,

193
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: we enjoy you. We know, no matter what, you're gonna

194
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: make great television for us. So here is just a

195
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 1: wide open room service card. Spend it. Use it to

196
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 1: your liking, because when you get to that B, we

197
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: know you're going to be on sweet that it could be.

198
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: I don't want to call myself a favorite, but you

199
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 1: know I have been there a time or two. I

200
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: do remember you getting free drinks with your free room

201
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: service the first My first two seasons this year, Jared

202
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: and I did have to pay for like cocktails. So

203
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: if you if you want drinks, you gotta pay for

204
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: those now. Uh yeah. So then the when do you

205
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: know whether you're like first sand as I call it

206
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: these days, I think pretty much because of like everybody

207
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: talks to each other. You know that if you're flying

208
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: on a certain date and you like figure out like

209
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 1: who else is falling on that date, that your first Sandy.

210
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 1: I don't think it's Yeah, I don't think that's really

211
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: that much of a mystery. But people who come like

212
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: a day or two later, like I think they know

213
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: that they're a little bit more up in the air.

214
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: And then the drive is about an hour to sell

215
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: Ulita to play Escondida from Dunda, and it's a bumpy,

216
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: bumpy right for them. For half of it you're going

217
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 1: through you know, highway and it's fine, and then you

218
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 1: hit this spart where it's like gravel curves and massive

219
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: bumps and like those roads that if some if you

220
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: see somebody coming down the opposite direction, you're like, I

221
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: don't know what we're gonna do. Back up, you know,

222
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: try to climb a mountain. It's just new. It's nerve

223
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 1: racking when you come come across another car on those roads.

224
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 1: Do you want first sand? Is that something that contestants

225
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: desire two days later? Well, if you're two days later,

226
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: then I think that that's like that nut's pretty good

227
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,559
Speaker 1: because that kind of means like you're the ultimate temptation,

228
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: and my point of view, like you're the one that

229
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 1: you know that like you're going to shake things up,

230
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: and not just with drama, but like you're like of

231
00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: interest to the opposite sex, right, So like Victoria Fuller,

232
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: we saw her come down later, and I think that

233
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: we all know, like Victoria, like, it's definitely like that

234
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 1: kind of like desired person. And I think that's flattering.

235
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 1: But I think that like, you don't want to be

236
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: you don't want to be like me, like week um

237
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: in season two where you come in like the first

238
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: week of girls entering, you know what I mean, because

239
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 1: you have your girls and guys entering, and then you

240
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: have your guys entering, and then you have your girls entering,

241
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: and like then you just feel like you're walking into

242
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: a bunch of couples and you're just scrounging for a date. Yeah,

243
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: it's it's interesting. Me. I feel like I would not

244
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: want to be there first. I want to come in soon.

245
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: I want to kind of let the first initial impressions

246
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: settle where they may. I feel like, if you're really

247
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 1: into somebody, if you're going down there saying I have

248
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: my eyes on this person, I'm only in it for

249
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: this person, I want to let that happen. I don't

250
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: want to be around for that. I don't want it

251
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: to be awkward or all of a sudden I don't

252
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: know what you're feeling behind the scenes, and I ask

253
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: you want to date, and then you're like, I'm sorry,

254
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: I'm actually really just waiting for this person to come

255
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: down the beach. I want the dust to settle, to

256
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: see kind of how it plays out, and then walk

257
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: down that way. There's kind of a picture. There's more

258
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: of a calmness to the beach. There's less of an excitement,

259
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 1: and you know this, Like I get a little socially awkward,

260
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: and so those like initial like when you're the first

261
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: one the beach and people are coming down, like the

262
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: hug of like hey, I'm been nice to teach you.

263
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: I don't know your name, I've never seen you before,

264
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're about. I get really kind

265
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: of like quiet and like drawn out in those moments.

266
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: I'd rather enter into something that's already been set, like

267
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: the vibe has already been committed. Now that you've picked

268
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: at this picture for me, I understand your point of

269
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 1: view more. I still want to be first Sand, but

270
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: I understand also, UM understand what you're saying about, like

271
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: the chaos that is being first Sand. It's like everybody

272
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: is hunting. It's like it's like it's officially hunting season.

273
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: Go find a mate. It's just a little bit more stressful.

274
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: I feel like than if you were to walk in

275
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 1: and then be like, I have my eyes on this person,

276
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: I have a I have an initial charge to this one.

277
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: I would like to take them on a date. Your

278
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 1: problem is that person could be taken and you just

279
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: never got your chance. Yeah, that's a good point. What

280
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: is That's a great point. There's there's pros and cons

281
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: to both. I also think that you have you ever

282
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 1: been on like a big friends trip. That first night

283
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: is wild and exciting. Everybody so anxious and anticipating like

284
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: the days ahead, and so they end up partying more

285
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: than they typically would, and they end up, you know,

286
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: just get they kind of have like the anxious energy

287
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: about them. I get that way with guys golf trips. Now,

288
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 1: I get very anxious and excited, and so I show

289
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: up to that first night and I'm like ready to

290
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: go so excited for that first tea time, and I

291
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: wear myself out. I end up going too hard, too fast,

292
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: too soon. And so if I I just feel like

293
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: I want to like peacefully interim and I want to

294
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: calmly walk down. What's going on, guys, It's good to

295
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 1: be here. How are you doing. How's your experience been?

296
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: You're still sweating. That looks like you're hot and tired.

297
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: We actually, Ashley before we break down this episode, we

298
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: had Genevieve in Victoria Fuller in Las Vegas with us.

299
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: We do have interviews with both of them. They're both great.

300
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna make insanely good television between the

301
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: two of them. I also really just enjoy them. And

302
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: here's the cool part, Ashley. I've never met them before

303
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: this trip. Just sitting with them having lunch one day,

304
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: Rachel the pass Bachelorette, I guess the most recent bachelor um. Victoria,

305
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: Genevieve and I had lunch together. We talked for probably

306
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: an hour and a half, just to four of us,

307
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: and I sat there and I told Genevieve at the

308
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: end of this, I said, Genevieve, because she's kind of nervous, like,

309
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: you know, how is this going to be portrayed and

310
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: all this stuff? And I asked her she was worried

311
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: about anything. She's not that pops in my head. I'm

312
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: just worried people won't like me. I'm like, Okay, Genevia,

313
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,640
Speaker 1: let me tell you this. You are, Ashley, like you

314
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: are your emotional You're just hopeless romantic. You love being

315
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 1: around people, you love hard, you love well. You you

316
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 1: set your eyes on something, you want it. You're gonna

317
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: be insanely good television. Not because you are an actress,

318
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: just because of who you are. She is hilarious, a blast,

319
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,199
Speaker 1: and and like just the stuff she was willing to

320
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: tell me, the stuff that I feel like you would

321
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,959
Speaker 1: have been willing to tell me back then about you know,

322
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 1: sweating and sleeping and the bathroom arrangements and the bed

323
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: arrangements and what's crawling into the bed and what's not

324
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 1: It's It was amazing. I just loved listening to Victoria

325
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 1: and Genevieve and Rachel talk amongst each other. Ashley, UM,

326
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: let's just run through. I'm gonna do a few of

327
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,719
Speaker 1: them here, then you can pick up from there. Uh.

328
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: Of the people that's coming to the beaches to give

329
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,479
Speaker 1: people a reminder, Uh, the first one is one that

330
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 1: people you know, didn't haven't seen a lot of before. Actually,

331
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 1: some of these contestants people haven't seen a lot of before,

332
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: which I think is fun. But here you go. We

333
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: have Hunter from Clayton season. We have Johnny from Gabby

334
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: and Rachel's season, Serene from Clayton season, Brandon from Michelle's season,

335
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 1: Kira from Clayton season. Now, I will say, and I

336
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: don't want this to come off bad. It will probably

337
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 1: I didn't recognize Hunter or Kira. I didn't. I did

338
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 1: not recognize who they were. I I was had to

339
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: look them up and say, were they really on this

340
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: season or not? Okay, I have two more here, Jacob

341
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: from Rachel and Gabby season and then Genevieve from Clayton season.

342
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 1: You want to finish the list, sure, Then we have

343
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 1: from Clayton season, Justin from Katie season, Jill from Clayton season,

344
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: and Michael A from Katie season. So we don't have

345
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: many guys from or any Yeah, we don't have any

346
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 1: guys from the most recent season. We don't. It's weird,

347
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 1: isn't it. Well Logan was also there, but he wasn't

348
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 1: in the packages beforehand. Okay, huh yeah, it felt like

349
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: these like they did pull back a little bit on

350
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: some seasons here, right, because then we have Andrew and

351
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 1: those guys showing up here later on. Uh. Well, Serene

352
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 1: shows up to the beach. First, we see her package

353
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,919
Speaker 1: and we see her have walked down the beach. I

354
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,439
Speaker 1: have a feeling Serene is going to be kind of

355
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 1: one of those like I think she'll settle down early.

356
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 1: You know, we might get a hint of that already,

357
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: but I think she's gonna have at some point somebody

358
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: come down to the beach that she's kind of interested

359
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 1: in and that's very interested in her, and she's gonna

360
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,120
Speaker 1: be that storyline of she goes on a date, comes

361
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 1: back and it's like, Nope, well we saw that it's

362
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: already happening. It's Brandon. You know. What's what I'm saying,

363
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: she'll come back to Brandon at some point, she'll come

364
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: back to Brandon. You think that, like, oh, because it's

365
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: not like it's not sent and Stone, but it's the ye.

366
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 1: It's that this is the first week. We haven't moved

367
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: to the point where we're like, yes, that's a couple,

368
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: you know, like the most couply couple. Definitely, definitely you

369
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 1: should go look at Bachelor Data's recent posts. She talks

370
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 1: about like this trend about how the first guy in

371
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 1: the first girl down on the beach is usually the

372
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 1: two to end up in serious relationships, not necessarily together,

373
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 1: but like those two people lead roman romantic storylines for

374
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,400
Speaker 1: the entire season. So then Michael A is the first

375
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:37,400
Speaker 1: guy to the beach, right, yes, sir, And that makes sense? Yeah,

376
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 1: its sense. I mean Michael A. Um, I feel like

377
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,399
Speaker 1: I can do no wrong because I think he's a

378
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I know him. He is a good dude.

379
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: He is, he is what he shows on television, right, Um,

380
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 1: he's good looking. Kind of went out of the radar.

381
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 1: I think after Katie season people still of him, but

382
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 1: kind of forgot about him a little bit. I think

383
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 1: the Beach was a great decision for him. I think

384
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: going on Paradise and then just the way that the

385
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 1: girls were talking about him is the Michael A that

386
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: I've known him personally, where they're like, I'm into him.

387
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: He's he's good looking. He is, and he's gotten better looking. Yeah.

388
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 1: I would think he's always been handsome, but like he's

389
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 1: like hot. He had the Bachelor blow up yeah and

390
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: uh he uh. And he he took time to talk

391
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: to each person, even if it wasn't like a romantic interest.

392
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,719
Speaker 1: I think, you know, that could be seen as as

393
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 1: a negative in some eyes. But Michael A I think

394
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,159
Speaker 1: did it with the intention of just like, hey, welcome

395
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: to the beach. I'm the first person here. I want

396
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: to make you feel welcome. Let's call the nerves, let's

397
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,119
Speaker 1: have a drink, let's hang out, and I think it's

398
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 1: gonna I mean, I just feel like that's the type

399
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 1: of guy he is. I would be shocked if if

400
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: the show especially doesn't kind of find him his match.

401
00:21:55,520 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: For sure. He's the most rootable character and I just

402
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: have to reiterate all your sentiments there. He's just so sweet,

403
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 1: so easy to talk to, just like you just want

404
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 1: to be around him. He makes every social situation enhanced.

405
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 1: He does. He's going to thrive here. And then we

406
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 1: have Andrew that walks down the beach, the second guy

407
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: to the beach. I mean, that's a two pretty power

408
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:24,400
Speaker 1: packed punch, right He's probably sitting there being like, all right,

409
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 1: we're off to a good start. We've got this might

410
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 1: not be my romantic interest, but at least we're stack

411
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,640
Speaker 1: in the deck. At the beginning. Andrew and Michael Ay,

412
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:38,119
Speaker 1: two of the most rutable people right now kind of

413
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: coming into paradise, are at the beach. First, that's awesome.

414
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 1: Two major Bachelor contenders, two guys that I would have

415
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,880
Speaker 1: rather seen as the Bachelor. In both cases, when when

416
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: I referred to Zach and when I referred to Clayton Love,

417
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: Andrew and Michael, I now know them personally. Um, but

418
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: even and if I didn't, I'd still find that they

419
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: were more compelling people that I've watched on TV. But yeah, again,

420
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 1: to read right what you said, if if I were Serena,

421
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 1: I'd be like, okay, feeling good about these two people.

422
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:17,479
Speaker 1: Are really invested in both their storylines. And I like

423
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 1: the fact that we have like Katie's major like Big

424
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: three besides you know her final pick with um justin,

425
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: Michael and Andrew all there. So we just saved the

426
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,439
Speaker 1: goodies for this season. So maybe we'll do some of

427
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: that with Rachel and Gabby season as well next year. Yeah.

428
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 1: And I would also say that Rachel and Gabby, to

429
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: go back a little bit, they really carried their seasons,

430
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 1: like the seasons were interesting or enjoyable or controversial because

431
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 1: of Rachel and Gabby, their contestants I didn't think stood

432
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: up to the challenge like there was you know, there's

433
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 1: maybe I can't remember anyone. Okay, my point exactly. Now,

434
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,199
Speaker 1: Katie with the Michael A and the Justin and Andrews,

435
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 1: they're big personalities. They're nice guys, they're good looking guys.

436
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: They've you know, they've came off the show and we

437
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: still remember them like I, you know, I I remember

438
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: their storylines. I remember Justin having the facial expressions. I

439
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: remember some dance video that Andrew did at some point

440
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 1: that I enjoyed. I've been able to talk to Michael

441
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 1: A a a lot over the phone, and so I don't know,

442
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's hard to say, and we're focused

443
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,679
Speaker 1: on this season, but I feel like these guys really

444
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 1: stood up to the challenge when it came to kind

445
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: of showing who they were as people. And I don't

446
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: know if Katie and Rachel are if Gabby and Rachel

447
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:42,640
Speaker 1: had enough contestants that really did that. So we also

448
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 1: have Michelle season in the mix, so we've totally forgotten

449
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 1: about again her season. Not like a whole ton of

450
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 1: memorable guys, but Brandon was probably the one that we

451
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,920
Speaker 1: would most want to see find love in that group.

452
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,399
Speaker 1: And then there is Rodney, and I think Rodney's in

453
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: the scenes for the next episode or the future episodes. Okay,

454
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 1: So right now, if we break down this by season Ashley,

455
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: from Gabby and Rachel season, we have Johnny Logan Logan,

456
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: and then um silly Man perfect Tarzan okay, And then

457
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:26,760

00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 1: I enjoyed that interaction. I felt like it was really funny. Uh,

468
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: And I'm excited to see kind of him shine hopefully

00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 1: for a few weeks on Paradises. Okay. So then let's

470
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 1: go to the women Better at the Beach from the

00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,159
Speaker 1: most current season, Clayton season of The Bachelor. Who do

00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: we have all all of them except for Victoria. Laces

00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,679
Speaker 1: down there and she was she was on the power

Speaker 1: packed Bachelor's season. I mean that Bachelor that season. That

475
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 1: Lace was on that power packed one that was called

476
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: Ben Higgins season. Yeah, that Laces down there. That's shocking

477
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 1: and surprising and I did not expect to see her.

478
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 1: I hope finds love. Sorry. We also have Brittany and

479
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 1: Brittany's from Matt season, but Bertie flew under the radar

480
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: in last night's episode, and I hate that because I

481
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 1: love Britney. Is Brittany the one that back during Matt season,

482
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: I was like, that girl is beautiful, She's going to

483
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: be right. So studying when we were in Paradise, well,

484
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 1: I can't say anything. I can't won't say anything, but anyone,

485
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,880
Speaker 1: I'll talk. I'll talk next week when I'm allowed to talk.

486
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 1: What season was Jill on? Jill was on Cleaning season? Ji, Yes,

487
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 1: and even like backstories, I know, not just from being

488
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: down there in Paradise, but through Jill, Like I knew

489
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: that she and Kira had drama surrounding Romeo before they

490
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: even left for Paradise. Like Jill would tell me, she

491
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, they're gonna put Kira there,

492
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: and they're good about Romeo there, and it's like I

493
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 1: liked Romo, but you know, I got the whole scope

494
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: before she went down. Well, they rose to the occasion

495
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 1: on night one. Yes, so Romeo is down there as well.

496
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 1: If you remember Romeo, Romeo was on this past season

497
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 1: of The Bachelorette. Correct Romeo was on Oh Michelle season

498
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 1: or we're just like doing a really bad job about

499
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 1: you know, fig ring out was who's from here? But yes, Romeo,

500
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: Michelle Susan along with Um Brandon and so the beach

501
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: is packed, things are flowing. Wells is at the bar

502
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 1: making drinks. It's good to see Wells back. It is.

503
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: I think he brings an element to this show that's important.

504
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 1: And from what I understand from talking to Victorian Genevieve,

505
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: like they just really enjoy hanging out the bar with

506
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: Wells on the beach, and so I think it helps

507
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: always nice to have that third element of human, not

508
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: a cast member, not a production member. Yeah, he's and

509
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: he's bar tender and he's not trying to sway you

510
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 1: any direction. He's not telling you what you should do next.

511
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 1: He's just listening. He's a good listener, grace storyteller. Uh

512
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: and uh, and I'm happy to see Wells back. I'm

513
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: happy to see him behind the bar. Ashley a little

514
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: bit of drama on week one. Obviously, you just talked

515
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 1: about Jill, Kira and Romeo. Uh. From what you saw

516
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 1: and what you understand, how did you feel about that interaction.

517
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 1: This is what I understand from the situation. I think

518
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: he was kind of flirtatious with both off camera, and

519
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 1: then I think he had visited, like Jill and Romeo

520
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: were truly just friends. I think that was their first

521
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: kiss off camera, but there was like a there was

522
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: a flirtation. And then with Kira, it seems obvious on

523
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 1: the show that they had kissed before off camera. Um,

524
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: but then it looks like he's not apparently that into

525
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: it because he flat out tells Kira, please give me

526
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: the space to pursue Jill, and I thought he did.

527
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: That's such a such a nice way, let's just but then,

528
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: but then Kira just seems to not really want to

529
00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: abide by that wish, and she's being really a aggressive

530
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 1: and she's making it seem to Jill, like said, I

531
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: don't know why you're annoyed at me. It's like maybe

532
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 1: because you're being super aggressive and he told you to

533
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: like let him pursue this um. But Jill is hilarious

534
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: and this will be this will be continuing. No, I'll

535
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: just say that as something continuing. Kira moved on quickly.

536
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 1: She rubbing cases nipples by the end of the night.

537
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: So she's a slop show. A slop show, right, I mean,

538
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know her. I just saw

539
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: her rubbing nipples and I was like, hey, I'm sure

540
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 1: that feels great on the beach, a little wind in

541
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: your hair. It seems like a very romantic evening. I

542
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm excited to watch this play out. I

543
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 1: do imagine that, Kira. I mean, anybody that has the

544
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: title looking for a Threesome is obviously going to create

545
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 1: some storylines during this season. If they want to give

546
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: you that title, you're not lying under the radar. Uh.

547
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: And now I'm wondering where and how how is this

548
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: going to play out? This cannot end well, But I'm

549
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: excited to watch it on national television. I'll have to say.

550
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:13,719
Speaker 1: I have to say that so we all know that

551
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 1: Kira is a doctor. I believe she is an internist.

552
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: How would you feel seeing just your doctor rubbing nipples?

553
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: I feel, you know, let it fly? Just do you?

554
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 1: Just do you you're on paradise. I mean, we've had

555
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: a lot of people with a lot of different professions, attorneys, doctors, uh,

556
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 1: a lot of workout trainers, um. All of them just

557
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 1: seem to go to paradise and let loose. I mean,

558
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: it's kind of why I watch it. I watch it

559
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 1: to see them let loose and to see their real like,

560
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: to see their personalities let go. Well. One of the

561
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 1: cool things to actually during this episode is the date

562
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: between Queen Andrew and Teddy. I mean, if I remember right,

563
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: I think we covered this way back in the day,

564
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: But when Teddy was on television, Andrew was like kind

565
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: of tweeting at her right or like messaging her. I'm

566
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: sure they've had to have spoken. There's no way they

567
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: haven't spoken, because I thought he was kind of sending

568
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 1: you know, his his you know bat was a back call. No,

569
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 1: what what am I looking for? Bat signal? Like he

570
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: was sending his signal up in the air towards Teddy.

571
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:35,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure they've talked, for sure. For sure. I loved

572
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: this day to this whole moment, this whole flirtation and

573
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: all that, because it's so authentic, so real feeling. Andrew

574
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: is obviously like straight up giddy, so nervous, can't hide it.

575
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: It's all shown. It's so real life. Love it, love

576
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 1: love love it. I love that he admits that he's nervous.

577
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: It's just all over adorable. This is why we love

578
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 1: Paradise because it's people like of looking forward to maybe

579
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: getting to be with their Christ from TV and then

580
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: seeing them do it and how they navigate it. Yeah,

581
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: it's great to watch it is. There was some very

582
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: sweet moments in this episode. Brandon and uh Serene stand

583
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 1: out to me obviously, Andrew and Teddy, Genevieve and Justin

584
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 1: also standing out to me as a very kind of,

585
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 1: like I want to say, relaxed couple. They feel very

586
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 1: normal around each other. They feel like they're just connecting

587
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: on a really good level, not only physically. Who shouldn't

588
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: even Justin? Yeah, okay, so I don't feel genev even

589
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 1: Justin yet. Interesting. Well, I guess the I guess I

590
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 1: see something you don't. I guess you do I see

591
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: all over Brandon and Serene. I mean that interaction was

592
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: a future bachelor couple. I feel like he he pulled

593
00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: her over. Yeah, he pulled her over, and she was like,

594
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,480
Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna kiss anybody for like a while, and

595
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: then here I am like wanting to kiss Like she

596
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: basically said, you're giving me I want to kiss fibes

597
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 1: and then she giggled at it and he went right

598
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 1: in and it was like, whoa, this is amazing. I

599
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 1: I think we saw two connections during this episode that

600
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: I would bet money on could last through it, and

601
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 1: and Teddy Serene and Brandon. I would put Genevieve and

602
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 1: Justin kind of in that third spot, but not like

603
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna make it the whole time. Is

604
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: there any other couples after a week one that you're saying, no, this,

605
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: this is going to be the real deal for the

606
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 1: rest of the show. Um, maybe not for the rest

607
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,439
Speaker 1: of the show. But there were a few more flirtations

608
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 1: we should mention. There was Sierra and Michael, and they

609
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:53,360
Speaker 1: had a really good conversation because Michael opened up about

610
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: a very detailed part of being a single parent. He

611
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 1: was like, I don't get to share these memories of someone,

612
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,760
Speaker 1: so like, when somebody hopefully does come into my life,

613
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 1: I can't look back on these times with them and

614
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 1: have that like nostalgic feeling something I never really would

615
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: have thought of. But I think that's why I FaceTime

616
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 1: dared and sent so many videos and pictures and face

617
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: time my parents so much, because I'm constantly trying to

618
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,479
Speaker 1: like share what's going on Dawson's day to day life,

619
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: and it's just like crazy to not have a go

620
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 1: to person for that. Yeah, well what do you think

621
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 1: about Lace? Lace becomes a big storyline during this episode,

622
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: as well as her thirty second birthday. Happy Birthday, Lace,

623
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: It's not really what do you mean that was her

624
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:43,880
Speaker 1: fake birthday? Her fake birthday? Okay, well still happy fake birthday, Lace, Um,

625
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 1: loose loose. So that's what I was just going to

626
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 1: bring into. Obviously Lace's story here so far, I don't

627
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 1: feel like he's off to a a great start. Not

628
00:35:55,880 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: that she's messed anything up, it just feels a little rough. Um.

629
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,399
Speaker 1: Lace hasn't been on the show in a while. Uh,

630
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 1: the show has always been difficult for her. If you

631
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:09,720
Speaker 1: remember when she was on the Bachelor, Um, she left

632
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 1: because it was hard on her to be around all

633
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,839
Speaker 1: these people and to have this attention and to kind

634
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 1: of be searching and fighting for for something, which is

635
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,800
Speaker 1: why I'm surprisedly showed back up to Paradise. I don't

636
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 1: know why, I don't know how it happened, but episode

637
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 1: one I felt like we saw the lace that we

638
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 1: have missed, but also saw years ago on the beach

639
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,319
Speaker 1: in Paradise when she was last there. It was the

640
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,399
Speaker 1: lace that we've missed, that the show has missed. These

641
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:43,280
Speaker 1: are the characters that people feel are missing from these

642
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 1: current seasons. She says these things, which makes us be like, yes,

643
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 1: bringing back the o G feeling. He She goes, my

644
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,800
Speaker 1: season was so much better than this season. In reference

645
00:36:56,840 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: to Paradise season three, she goes, this is the most

646
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,919
Speaker 1: boring season, and I feel the prettiest I've ever been.

647
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 1: She also says when she's being forced to sort of

648
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: go downstairs and mingle with everybody when she's lying in bed,

649
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: she was fine. I guess I also start being fakest.

650
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:20,760
Speaker 1: It's like, yes, thank you for saying everything that people

651
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 1: at home would feel in that situation, just being straight

652
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 1: up on us. She's the greatest she is. She is

653
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: the greatest, and she lives here in Denver, so I

654
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:33,720
Speaker 1: get to see see her around. Um, she is funny. Uh.

655
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 1: She does say what's on her mind, which is something

656
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,320
Speaker 1: we missed. She doesn't have anything to hold back on anymore.

657
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 1: Like I said, you know, it kind of happens when

658
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 1: this is your second and third go around you kind

659
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 1: of say, I'm just done pretending here. I'm just gonna

660
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 1: dive into it. I do have a question about and

661
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:50,919
Speaker 1: if Logan was on the podcast, I'd have to ask

662
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 1: him when the world was Logan thinking like if he

663
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 1: didn't know her name, his guests was loose, like like Lucy,

664
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: like Ellie. You see he didn't did I didn't hear

665
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 1: e at the end of it. I just heard loose, Yeah, loose,

666
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: which you know that was his guest. Like that's what

667
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:18,760
Speaker 1: That's the best he had. Yeah, Logan just just continues

668
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 1: to be like the blank paper. I don't get it.

669
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,919
Speaker 1: Yeah it is. You know he's down here. The show

670
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: obviously wanted him from this past season above other people.

671
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 1: That was just a weird interaction. But I can't wait.

672
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 1: I can't wait to kind of see Uh, I don't know,

673
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: I just I like the old school vibe that Lace springs.

674
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 1: You're right, it does bring back unfiltered. I also enjoy

675
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: that Lace is referencing season three as her season of

676
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: The Bachelor in Paradise, unlike that she's back on the beach, Like,

677
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 1: why is this not her season? I like that she goes,

678
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 1: that's my season. I'm just here for a good time.

679
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 1: Now they see your season, I'm here to ruin it.

680
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 1: I don't know. I love that's so much. There's always

681
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: like my season, beven year season. Yeah, you're right, this

682
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: isn't her season. This is She's right back on the beach.

683
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: It's the same thing as before. Amazing. And then it

684
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 1: was also funny when she was like cupping Casey's breasts

685
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 1: and she was and then they were like she and

686
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 1: Wells are talking about how like that's a full beat cup.

687
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 1: It really was. I was like, he's got more of

688
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 1: a handful than me. Yeah, good for him on the beach. Yes,

689
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: I enjoy that. Anything else from episode one standing out

690
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 1: to you, actually, any takeaways, anything that we want to

691
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,360
Speaker 1: bring up before we move on. I'm not trying to

692
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,359
Speaker 1: like to Jill's horn because she's my actual friend in

693
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 1: real life. But she feels like a modern Lace, do

694
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. She's pretty unfiltered. She's screaming,

695
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 1: she she just is raw emotion and I'm liking it. Yeah,

696
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:07,719
Speaker 1: I enjoyed watching her. I don't. I didn't know much

697
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:12,359
Speaker 1: about her going into the season. I enjoyed watching her

698
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 1: in Paradise. Just her reactions, They're real. They weren't like

699
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 1: tamed down, they weren't um. They didn't feel like she

700
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: was trying to impress anybody. You know. She just let loose,

701
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: uh and had a good time with it. And I

702
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: think we're gonna enjoy that. I think Paradise works really

703
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 1: well for that. She'll shine during this thing. I think

704
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: shine her and Genevieve, I think so far like the

705
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:41,279
Speaker 1: ones that I'm saying in Lace, I'm saying I can't.

706
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: I just like it when they're on our screens, like

707
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: I enjoy watching whatever they're gonna say and do. Uh

708
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 1: from that's on the girl's side on the guy said,

709
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 1: I don't know if I have that person yet. I

710
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 1: don't have somebody that's really when they're on it makes

711
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: me laugh. Casey didn't make me laugh a few times.

712
00:40:56,239 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 1: I I like that I liked watching him, and I'm like,

713
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: I like what Andrew. I mean, Michael a is just

714
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:07,839
Speaker 1: like as are studfast like Romcom lead right, and then

715
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 1: then Andrew he makes me smile. That guy is always smiling.

716
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 1: He has a glow around him. Love watching him, and

717
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 1: I do think that Justin is really funny, and I

718
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 1: hope we get to see more Justin's humor. I agree.

719
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 1: I also just love the guys. When they sit in

720
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:27,800
Speaker 1: the palapa uh and are talking in Tarzan is saying

721
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: ridiculous stuff like I'm really into that girl, you know,

722
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:31,480
Speaker 1: the one girl. They're like, what's her name? He's like,

723
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, and Andrew and Justin's reaction to that

724
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,800
Speaker 1: is so good because he's like, this is the funniest,

725
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,880
Speaker 1: Like this is the most ridiculous thing I've ever been

726
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 1: a part of UM and I love every second of Okay.

727
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 1: So next week we have Victoria Fuller showing up to

728
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 1: the beach. Uh. She's walking down kind of in the

729
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: previews while Genevieve and Justin are sitting by the pool.

730
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 1: It's kind of hinted that Victoria is into Justin uh,

731
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 1: and I'm assuming that will be a storyline that plays

732
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,040
Speaker 1: out next week. So far, Ashley, do you feel like

733
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:02,879
Speaker 1: this is a good start to Paradise. Do you feel

734
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 1: like this is what you needed, wanted, we're expecting, or

735
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 1: do you feel like it fell short and is disappointing?

736
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,400
Speaker 1: There could have been a little bit more humor hits.

737
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:15,279
Speaker 1: I knew just being down there during week two and

738
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: getting to hear about what happened during week one. I

739
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 1: was like, ah, you guys are gonna be off to

740
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: a slow start, that that first episode may not be

741
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: representative of what is to come. And I think like

742
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: it was good. It was fun, Like Paradise is always fun,

743
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,960
Speaker 1: even on its most mediocre episodes. It's fun. It's it's

744
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:37,040
Speaker 1: good TV. It will get juicier, guys. It's just this

745
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 1: is gonna be like a little bit of a slow

746
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 1: burn in the first one or two episodes. How many

747
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 1: episodes do we get, like, what like twelve twelve episodes?

748
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:52,479
Speaker 1: I think it's twelve, my goodness. Yeah, jeez, this show

749
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,919
Speaker 1: just keeps us busy. You know who we didn't talk about.

750
00:42:54,960 --> 00:43:00,839
Speaker 1: We didn't talk about Johnny at all. Johnny has nothing. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

751
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: that's it. That's what I say. Nothing nothing about Johnny okay, alright,

Speaker 1: she's a model, and she is a family She's one

762

Speaker 1: of our podcast family friends here because she's had a

763
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,760
Speaker 1: podcast on I Heart before, which is called Intimate Knowledge.

764
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,320
Speaker 1: But now it's kind of relaunching in a different way.

765
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 1: So Megan, welcome to the show and let us know

766
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,359
Speaker 1: how how is Intimate Knowledge different now than it used

00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,719
Speaker 1: to be? And like and why the break well I

768
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,759
Speaker 1: wanted to, I mean COVID made us take a break

769
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:22,919
Speaker 1: more or less. And um, so this relaunch is really

770
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 1: more about my dating life than anything else with all

771
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,879
Speaker 1: the juicy details. So before when it was just about

772
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:33,879
Speaker 1: kind of exploring different sex and intimacy, scenario, situations, and

773
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 1: from a woman's perspective, this is a little bit light,

774
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:42,800
Speaker 1: more lighthearted, a little bit funnier, and a lot more personal. Okay,

775
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,319
Speaker 1: but you just said on Instagram or you said on

776
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 1: social media that you're like over talking about your personal

777
00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 1: life on social media. But now you're just gonna move

778
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 1: it to no no, no, no, no no no. I'm

779
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 1: not talking about I'll talk about my personal life. I'm

780
00:44:55,520 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 1: not talking about my relationships. So okay, that's okay. I'm

781
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 1: not talking about the individuals. They will be they will

782
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 1: remain nameless unless okay, yeah, So what happens if you

783
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 1: get into another prof high profile relationship. First off, you guys,

784
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:22,440
Speaker 1: she you probably got on the Housewives because you were

785
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:27,399
Speaker 1: married to baseball player Jim Edmonds. Um, that's what I said.

786
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:31,760
Speaker 1: Andy's insists that that's not the case. But really, seriously,

787
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 1: like what does he Why does he say you got

788
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: on the Housewives? He said that I got on because

789
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 1: I'm me and I have had an interesting life, and

790
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:42,080
Speaker 1: I I was like, okay, okay. And then and then

791
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:47,800
Speaker 1: over the fall, you married Kuff biden Owens and that

792
00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:51,919
Speaker 1: was Um, that's the nephew of the president and yes,

793
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: you guys are married for a month, so maybe too,

794
00:45:56,520 --> 00:46:01,320
Speaker 1: maybe too? And is it officially an old chip? Oh yeah, Okay,

795
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:03,399
Speaker 1: how did you get it annulled? Because that's a little

796
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:05,719
Speaker 1: a challenging. I don't know, you just like so you

797
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 1: just call a lawyer and you say I want to

798
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:11,440
Speaker 1: annull this, and then a judge signs it. I don't know.

799
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 1: I thought it was a catholic churn. Pay your bill

800
00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:17,040
Speaker 1: and then you know, so you can get it legally

801
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: annulled as well. And I think all that really means

802
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 1: in terms of the law is that there's no property

803
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,520
Speaker 1: to be split up kind of thing. Okay, it's just

804
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: as if it never existed. So my bottom line here is, Megan,

805
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,600
Speaker 1: how are you going to keep the men that you're

806
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 1: in these relationships with anonymous? If they're all high profile?

807
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 1: They're not all high profiles. I really I haven't. I've

808
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 1: tried to not date anyone who's high profile because I

809
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:45,400
Speaker 1: think because I was with a professional baseball player who

810
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 1: is a celebrity in his own right, I um, I

811
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 1: saw him not feel comfortable with the sharing of the

812
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:56,280
Speaker 1: spotlight in that way, and so I think there's something

813
00:46:56,440 --> 00:47:00,200
Speaker 1: kind of deeply like subconscious happening here where I out

814
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:03,360
Speaker 1: to people who aren't in the spotlight but still sort

815
00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 1: of high profile where they can understand my life a

816
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 1: little bit, but they're very private, like the best, Like

817
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 1: the smaller social media presence the better in my opinion.

818
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 1: But after having gone on this date with Mike Johnson,

819
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: oh wait a minute, I start so far as time

820
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,319
Speaker 1: I went on date like that with anybody who's in

821
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:26,799
Speaker 1: the public eye. You have wanted to be set up

822
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,080
Speaker 1: by somebody through the I Heart team for a while now,

823
00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 1: and then they chose Mike for you personally, and they

824
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: kind of set up for you guys to meet at

825
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 1: the I Heart Awards, which if we're going to be

826
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 1: open and honest about all things for relationship with you,

827
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,680
Speaker 1: and I appreciate it because that's far you have. It

828
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 1: happened to be on like the weekend in which your

829
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:50,279
Speaker 1: ex husband got married. Was there some timing to this? No?

830
00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,880
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. Also, it was my birthday weekend, so if

831
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about stealing spotlights, talk about who got

832
00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 1: married on my birthday? Okay, this good stuff. I'm enjoying

833
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: this interview. I'm just gonna sit back and watch this.

834
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:07,200
Speaker 1: I did not married. I did not know it was

835
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:10,920
Speaker 1: your birth we did, we did take a shot. Um,

836
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,439
Speaker 1: I wish i'd known your birthday. We could have saying

837
00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: to you, but I'm glad we didn't. Well, there's time

838
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 1: to make up for that. Okay, But let's go back

839
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:22,480
Speaker 1: to Mike Johnson. Now, so you're saying the timing was coincidental,

840
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,760
Speaker 1: but you guys did have your first real date in Vegas.

841
00:48:27,239 --> 00:48:31,320
Speaker 1: What would you do? Um? We said a lot of things.

842
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:35,960
Speaker 1: We um we I don't know. It was so awkward,

843
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 1: you guys, I felt like, honestly, I felt like what

844
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:40,640
Speaker 1: it might feel like to be on the Bachelor, because

845
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 1: it was like a forced date in a really cool

846
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: environment with high intense and energy, and like it was

847
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,359
Speaker 1: just a lot of fun. But then we're also trying

848
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 1: to get to know each other in this kind of

849
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 1: fantasy land, you know, type of um evening, and then

850
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 1: we end up at a strip club, which is not

851
00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:59,879
Speaker 1: you're not going to find on the Bachelor. So we

852
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,640
Speaker 1: had to mix it up for intimate knowledge my podcast

853
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:05,440
Speaker 1: in that way. And I didn't know that Mike is

854
00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:08,200
Speaker 1: a sex coach, so I thought that may be going

855
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:10,879
Speaker 1: and we all didn't know Mike was a sex guy.

856
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 1: I did. When I did an interview with him, he

857
00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 1: told me he was a sex coach. I said, explain yourself.

858
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:17,560
Speaker 1: I don't know what that is, but I'm interested in

859
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 1: learning more. It's like an intimacy coach. So it's I

860
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 1: think it's a therapist, but for intimacy. So what did

861
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:30,239
Speaker 1: he teach you anything specifically at the strip club or

862
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:36,759
Speaker 1: or throughout the whole weekend? Oh my god, what did

863
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:40,319
Speaker 1: he teach you? Is the question actually asked. I mean,

864
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,520
Speaker 1: there was moments of fogginess in that long weekend. I

865
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:47,040
Speaker 1: think I slept like two hours. But I mean, you know,

866
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: we this was kind of an experiment, experimental setup, and

867
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 1: it turned out to be something more than that. And

868
00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:58,680
Speaker 1: we really get into it on intimate knowledge on the

869
00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 1: podcast because the day after our first date, the two

870
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,359
Speaker 1: of us sat down and we downloaded on our first date,

871
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 1: which is not something that happens. I mean downloaded. We discussed, okay,

872
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:12,880
Speaker 1: an episode, you record an episode, right, Yeah, we we

873
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 1: recording an episode of instant knowledge. But it was weird

874
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 1: to kind of like sit there with this guy they

875
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 1: went on a first date with and be like, well,

876
00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 1: we kissed and like talk about that in front of him.

877
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 1: It was so awkward, but that's what we did, so

878
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,040
Speaker 1: all of those details came out. That took We did

879
00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:32,360
Speaker 1: that episode with Champagne because we needed some liquid courage.

880
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 1: Did do you feel like it was I mean, obviously

881
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 1: it was an uncomfortable exercise. Do you feel like it

882
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:40,319
Speaker 1: was at all healthy to sit down the day after

883
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,839
Speaker 1: a set up blind day? Obviously the date went well.

884
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:47,400
Speaker 1: I will say, as a by standard, I did not

885
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:49,239
Speaker 1: know you guys were on a set up date, but

886
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:51,600
Speaker 1: I did recognize it. As soon as you walked into

887
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:56,480
Speaker 1: the room, Mike head turned focused on you, and then

888
00:50:56,520 --> 00:51:01,359
Speaker 1: you two were together all evening, talking, laughing. You know,

889
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:03,400
Speaker 1: it wasn't like, all right, we have this date to

890
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:05,800
Speaker 1: go on now, like you enjoyed each other's company. It

891
00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:10,040
Speaker 1: looked like, yeah, I am going to ask you about that. Actually,

892
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 1: what we're gonna ask. I was gonna ask, you know,

893
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:14,600
Speaker 1: as a bystandard, what did you think? Like? What was

894
00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,719
Speaker 1: our body language saying? Because I felt really comfortable. Well,

895
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,880
Speaker 1: initially I leaned over at Bob Guinea, Chris Harrison and

896
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 1: Jason and I said, wow, Mike is really into Megan.

897
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:26,719
Speaker 1: That was my first comment about the evening because I

898
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:29,360
Speaker 1: saw you guys in the corner at our little cocktail party.

899
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 1: You guys are just kind of chilling together. And then

900
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 1: I think at some point somebody on the team goes, yeah,

901
00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:37,640
Speaker 1: this is a set up blind date for them. They're

902
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:39,720
Speaker 1: going on a blind date. And I said, oh, okay,

903
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:42,160
Speaker 1: so this isn't like just a first interaction. I think

904
00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 1: you're attractive, you think I'm attractive. Um, that's go on

905
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:46,920
Speaker 1: a date. No, you guys are set up. But it

906
00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 1: looked like that there was chemistry. There was, Yeah, it did.

907
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 1: I mean we hung out all weekend. We'd up hanging

908
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:57,440
Speaker 1: out all weekend. There was definite chemistry. We um. I

909
00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,399
Speaker 1: mean we got a long grade and it was really

910
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,840
Speaker 1: fun to be on the red carpet with a date.

911
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:06,839
Speaker 1: Who is in that world? I mean, you guys both know,

912
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,880
Speaker 1: but I don't. I've never done that before, and um,

913
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 1: it was just a lot more fun. It just made

914
00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:16,920
Speaker 1: the whole experience less worky and more like just enjoyable.

915
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:19,359
Speaker 1: That's great. Well, I did bring me to my question, though,

916
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,360
Speaker 1: I do want to ask this, Ashley, is um recording

917
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,399
Speaker 1: the episode the next day then, um, twenty four hours

918
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:28,280
Speaker 1: I'm assuming after meeting him or a little last probably

919
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:31,799
Speaker 1: already in the tabloids at that point. Yeah, I know,

920
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 1: I saw I woke up in the morning. I saw

921
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,239
Speaker 1: you guys downstairs at breakfast. I said, I did reading

922
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:39,360
Speaker 1: on you this morning. Yeah, it was nice, guys, just

923
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 1: see some interesting videos. It was a good way to

924
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,360
Speaker 1: wake up. Um and uh, do you feel like it

925
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:46,640
Speaker 1: was a healthy exercise to break down the date the

926
00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 1: way you did? Do you recommend it to people? Was

927
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,440
Speaker 1: it awkward? Did it feel like it added tension? Or

928
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:52,800
Speaker 1: was it like good to say, hey, we want a

929
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:54,839
Speaker 1: date last night. Let's talk about the good, the bad,

930
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,040
Speaker 1: the ugly, what we enjoyed, what we didn't. Did you

931
00:52:57,239 --> 00:52:59,320
Speaker 1: enjoy that exercise? I mean that's a great question. I

932
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,440
Speaker 1: would say, oh, are all I think it was a

933
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 1: good idea, just because community communication direct communication is never

934
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,839
Speaker 1: a bad idea. But like the timing of it, less

935
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 1: than twelve hours later, it was little soon, A little soon.

936
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:13,839
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like, get a few dates under

937
00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:16,640
Speaker 1: your under your bell and then maybe talk about it

938
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:19,279
Speaker 1: in the ways that we did. But at the same time,

939
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:23,320
Speaker 1: it's like, I mean, we're both grown ups. What happened happened,

940
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 1: And like let's get on the same page. But so

941
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 1: we're being clear right now, it's basically, um like a

942
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:34,480
Speaker 1: publicity stunt for the podcast, or at least it was.

943
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:37,479
Speaker 1: It was set up together for this weekend so that

944
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:39,759
Speaker 1: you would have content to talk about on your on

945
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:43,520
Speaker 1: the launch of the podcast BINGO. That's exactly what it was. However,

946
00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:46,400
Speaker 1: it didn't end up that way, and I was hoping

947
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:48,840
Speaker 1: that it wouldn't end up that way. I was hoping

948
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 1: that it would finally be this the setup that I've

949
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:54,440
Speaker 1: been begging, aiming and Danielle to set me up with

950
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:57,440
Speaker 1: somebody for years and finally, you know, here's Mike. But

951
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:00,800
Speaker 1: um so I was hoping that there would be good connection.

952
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,759
Speaker 1: But um yeah, more than anything, it was like, let's

953
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,120
Speaker 1: just see you know what happens with the podcast. But

954
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:07,840
Speaker 1: I mean I talked to him this morning. He's in

955
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 1: l A. He's he's working in l A today, Like

956
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:14,279
Speaker 1: we're hanging out, we're talking. I was gonna say, I

957
00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:16,359
Speaker 1: saw that you both came out, or maybe you came

958
00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,839
Speaker 1: out publicly and said hey, um we're friends, which could

959
00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:22,799
Speaker 1: be true, but I I was going to argue with

960
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:26,760
Speaker 1: you where I didn't see something spark there. I was there.

961
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,279
Speaker 1: I saw the sparks, I saw the glitter, I saw

962
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:32,960
Speaker 1: the shimmer in the eyes. Um. And so I was

963
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:36,759
Speaker 1: gonna say you could be friends now, but like, are

964
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 1: you giving up on the idea of going on another date? No,

965
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:42,720
Speaker 1: not at all. And I'm actually he lives in Austin.

966
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be going I'm going to Austin for something

967
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 1: else in a couple of weeks. So I hope to

968
00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:51,120
Speaker 1: see him. Um, yeah, I don't. I mean there was

969
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:55,440
Speaker 1: there was definitely a great connection there. And um, I

970
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,759
Speaker 1: mean when something you know, there's a good connection like that,

971
00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 1: you just don't let it pass by when you're single woman,

972
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,279
Speaker 1: did you did you have a say and who that

973
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 1: they were going to set you up with? Like did

974
00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 1: you give them your type? Um? Did you are you

975
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:10,440
Speaker 1: a Bachelor fan? Did you want somebody from the franchise?

976
00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 1: I wanted somebody who I was interested in, somebody who

977
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:19,799
Speaker 1: was known. Um, but that's that's it. So it's not

978
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:21,919
Speaker 1: it's not a bacheloring. I really don't even watch TV

979
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:25,799
Speaker 1: and so, um, yeah, it wasn't about that. It was

980
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,279
Speaker 1: And then we were kind of brainstorming for a minute, Well,

981
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,319
Speaker 1: who's who should we ask and then um, Danielle said, well,

982
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:34,320
Speaker 1: what about Mike Johnson. And I was like, oh, my gosh,

Speaker 1: he's good looking. So he's a big dude. He's like,

00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,799
Speaker 1: he's huge, He's huge. I'm a tall guy. I told

985
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 1: him that when he walked down, and was like, you

00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:45,000
Speaker 1: just make me feel tiny, like because he's like, he's

987
00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:48,560

00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:54,160
Speaker 1: walking together, everybody's like looking straight up because I'm five eleven.

Speaker 1: They're like, yeah, he's this tall. And I wearing heels too,

991
00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:01,839
Speaker 1: So I was like amazony, uh, Well, to finish out

992
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 1: this this interview here one, it was great to be

993
00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:06,799
Speaker 1: with you in Vegas. It was great to see and

994
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,840
Speaker 1: and be with you off and on. You were working

995
00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:12,800
Speaker 1: hard and you were busy, um, and so we didn't

996
00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:15,680
Speaker 1: get the necessarily time I wanted to ask you about

997
00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:17,640
Speaker 1: this project. We talked a little bit at the beginning

998
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:21,640
Speaker 1: of this interview about the Intimate Knowledge podcast, Um, the

999
00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:26,120
Speaker 1: relaunch of this for fans out there listening. Now, Okay,

1000
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:29,640
Speaker 1: give you a little bit of I'm probably sharing too

1001
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,880
Speaker 1: much personally. My wife, right, not a secret was a

1002
00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:36,239
Speaker 1: virgin when we got married, UM listened to a lot

1003
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 1: of like podcast and listen to a lot of things

1004
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:41,560
Speaker 1: to like, you know, understand and to learn, you know,

1005
00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:45,920
Speaker 1: before we got married, and those tools were very helpful

1006
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,760
Speaker 1: in our marriage. They still are to this day. Hearing

1007
00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:51,359
Speaker 1: from other people, hearing about other married couples, hearing how

1008
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 1: they you know, they work through life. Once you get

1009
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:56,279
Speaker 1: a year in the marriage, and maybe it's not as

1010
00:56:56,320 --> 00:57:00,719
Speaker 1: exciting as it was the first couple of weeks, and so, UM,

1011
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:04,920
Speaker 1: I'm really appreciative for for projects like yours, But for

1012
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:07,759
Speaker 1: fans that they're listening, Uh, can you give them a

1013
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:10,040
Speaker 1: sales pitch? Like what why would they want to listen

1014
00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:11,400
Speaker 1: to it? What are they going to learn from it?

1015
00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:12,879
Speaker 1: What are they going to gain? Who do you hope

1016
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:15,799
Speaker 1: listens take it away? I think it's kind of like

1017
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 1: what you were saying about with your wife. You know,

1018
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:19,520
Speaker 1: it's a way, It's a good way to gather information.

1019
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 1: And I'm a woman who's been married. I know what

1020
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,040
Speaker 1: it's like to work through a marriage, to then go

1021
00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,360
Speaker 1: through divorce, to have children and date while having children,

1022
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:31,560
Speaker 1: to date without having children before I had kids too,

1023
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:35,640
Speaker 1: So I feel like I'm no expert on dating and

1024
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 1: sex and intimacy, but I do have a lot of

1025
00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:42,480
Speaker 1: experience in it, and as you know, a mom from

1026
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:45,520
Speaker 1: the middle of America who's thirty eight years old and

1027
00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:48,480
Speaker 1: in the dating world. Again, I don't think that I'm

1028
00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 1: alone in that, you know description, but I do think

1029
00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 1: I'm alone in the way that we just don't speak

1030
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:58,640
Speaker 1: about it openly enough. And so when people come to

1031
00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:01,480
Speaker 1: my podcast, they're going to laugh, and they're gonna they're

1032
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 1: gonna say, oh, my gosh, I can't believe she just

1033
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,160
Speaker 1: said that. They're going to put their kids to bed,

1034
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:08,880
Speaker 1: and then they're gonna listen. And I think that what

1035
00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:11,840
Speaker 1: I want is to just keep an open dialogue about

1036
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:17,160
Speaker 1: being comfortable within our sexuality, laughing at our sexuality and

1037
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:20,600
Speaker 1: sex and intimacy when it's appropriate, like making light of it,

1038
00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 1: but also finding the how the sanctity in sex and

1039
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:29,640
Speaker 1: intimacy as well, and knowing that you can have all

1040
00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:31,640
Speaker 1: of it. It's kind of just what are you looking

1041
00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:35,439
Speaker 1: for and and um, how do you achieve that? So

1042
00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna have a lot of fun guests on and

1043
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:40,640
Speaker 1: a lot of crazy dating stories, and if you listen

1050
00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:06,800
Speaker 1: listened to an episode yet I don't know where it's

1051
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:10,600
Speaker 1: gonna go, but I will say this here almost famous.

1052
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:13,720
Speaker 1: We celebrate anybody that's willing to be vulnerable, authentic and

1053
00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 1: maybe cross the line a little bit to help other

1054
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:20,280
Speaker 1: people feel less alone. And no matter what, I bet

1055
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:22,920
Speaker 1: somebody's gonna listen to your podcast and say, hey, maybe

1056
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:25,720
Speaker 1: I'm not crazy, Maybe I'm not alone in this. Maybe

1057
00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:29,680
Speaker 1: my desires or my ideas for marriage and sex and

1058
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:33,720
Speaker 1: intimacy have made me feel weird my whole life. And

1059
00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 1: Megan's helping me feel less alone and that matters. Go

1070
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 1: on back together after sparking romance rumors. They're both happy this.

1071
01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:33,000
Speaker 1: According to US Weekly, still can't get over this. I

1072
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:36,640
Speaker 1: still think it's hilariously awesome. I still think they have

1073
01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:39,960
Speaker 1: the most fiery, passionate relationship. But I can't believe. I

1074
01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:42,959
Speaker 1: can't imagine what it's like buying closed doors and how

1075
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:45,720
Speaker 1: anybody can get back together after all the things they

1076
01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 1: study each other about each other in the public. But

1077
01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:51,960
Speaker 1: it is Kelly and Peter, and they are back together fully.

1078
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 1: According to an insider, said that they were kindled the

1079
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:57,640
Speaker 1: romance this summer and haven't spending a lot of time

1080
01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 1: together since they us been planning fun dates and they

1081
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:05,040
Speaker 1: have a lot of fun together. Peter wants to be

1082
01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 1: in a serious, committed relationship and his feelings for Kelly

1083
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,600
Speaker 1: never went away. The source says they're both happy and

1084
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:15,480
Speaker 1: looking forward to where things go this time around. I

1085
01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:17,960
Speaker 1: want to know what's going on with all this stuff

1086
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:23,040
Speaker 1: that was said after they broke up, Like what how

1087
01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:24,120
Speaker 1: do you how do you get over that? I mean,

1088
01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:27,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure you can, right course, nothing was like brutal,

1089
01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:32,000
Speaker 1: but like they know, like there was that insinuation that

1090
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:34,840
Speaker 1: like he wasn't a real man. Yeah, I wouldn't enjoy

1091
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:41,120
Speaker 1: being was crazy. But I wonder if they were always

1092
01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:43,960
Speaker 1: in touch a little bit where it was like, really,

1093
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 1: did you really just say that? You know? I wonder

1094
01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:49,040
Speaker 1: if I was ever like playful when they were saying

1095
01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 1: things like that to each other. I don't think so.

1096
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: I think they really disliked each other because they loved

1097
01:01:56,200 --> 01:02:01,120
Speaker 1: each other so much. SA fiery passion read like this

1098
01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:03,840
Speaker 1: is a quick little headline here, uh that we don't

1099
01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 1: have to cover a lot of I just think it's

1100
01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:08,920
Speaker 1: great lace. Morris wonders why she's not being pursued as

1101
01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:14,800
Speaker 1: she fakes birthday attention on Paradise. This according to People, Well,

1102

Speaker 1: so people got this exclusive clip, and now if you

1103
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:19,560

Speaker 1: handled last night is basically these are just some funny

1105

Speaker 1: quotes from her because I feel hopeless in Paradise. Right now,

1106
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:27,160
Speaker 1: I'm the prettiest I've ever been, Like, how am I

1107
01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:30,840
Speaker 1: not being pursued? It blows my mind. I love what

1108
01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:34,320
Speaker 1: I wish I had that confidence, Like you know, I

1109
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:37,400
Speaker 1: guess nowadays it wouldn't do me much good. But back

1110
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:39,840
Speaker 1: in the day, when I was single in England, I

1111
01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 1: wish I could walk into a bar and be like,

1112
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:45,080
Speaker 1: how how is everybody in here not focused on me?

1113
01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 1: Like I'm feeling good? But I will admit that in

1114
01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:54,280
Speaker 1: my stints in Paradise I have thought similar things. I'd

1115
01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:58,560
Speaker 1: be like, I'm so confused. I'm fun, I feel really pretty,

1116
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:02,280
Speaker 1: I look great. I don't know why nobody wants to

1117
01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:05,680
Speaker 1: date me. I'm so confused. So this is just Lace

1118
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:09,440
Speaker 1: saying it, and I love her for saying it over too,

1119
01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:11,880
Speaker 1: for saying it is one of my favorites. I love

1120
01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 1: watching her. Uh. Jesse Palmer reveals which celebs he wants

1121
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:20,200
Speaker 1: to see on Bachelor. He wants to see Drake, which

1122
01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:23,240
Speaker 1: is a total long shot, and then he says, Lindsey

1123
01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:27,160
Speaker 1: Vaughn is newly single. She heard that she was dating

1124
01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:34,320
Speaker 1: p K seven, who don't do know who that is yeah. Um,

1125
01:03:34,680 --> 01:03:38,360
Speaker 1: but apparently it's just kind of like casual. He's met

1126
01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:41,760
Speaker 1: her before. I thinks she's lovely, so he's like, yeah,

1127
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:43,840
Speaker 1: I have nothing serious with Lindsey von And that would

1128
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,360
Speaker 1: be a cool choice. It would be Lindsey Vonn will

1129
01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:50,680
Speaker 1: be great. That girl, she's my She's my hero. How

1130
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:53,160
Speaker 1: many a c l surges she had? I only have three.

1131
01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:56,640
Speaker 1: I bet she has like five. That and she's still

1132
01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:02,000
Speaker 1: functioning at a high level. Nutty, nutty, but awesome. That'd

1133
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:06,120
Speaker 1: be cool. Bachelor's Clayton Eckert and Susie Evans. This was

1134
01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:12,320
Speaker 1: surprising to me split. It was when they came on

1135
01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:15,920
Speaker 1: our podcast. I left it and I said, I feel

1136
01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:19,560
Speaker 1: like she is such an important person in his life,

1137
01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:21,480
Speaker 1: like the way that he talked about her, Like Susie's

1138
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:23,320
Speaker 1: there to support me when I was done. I mean,

1139
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:25,600
Speaker 1: maybe that's not a great signs. That felt kind of

1140
01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 1: one sided when they were on. But I'm surprised that

1141
01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:34,560
Speaker 1: they split now. There was obviously some hints that things

1142
01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:37,080
Speaker 1: were not going well in Paradise. You know, they were

1143
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:43,440
Speaker 1: moving separately after living together. Um yeah, I did did

1144
01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:46,600
Speaker 1: post an ad like two days before the announcement of

1145
01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:49,439
Speaker 1: the breakup, so somehow they were still working together get

1146
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:52,880
Speaker 1: the money in. We'll post this first and then we

1147
01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:57,400
Speaker 1: will split. I just knew that they had to work

1148
01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:00,840
Speaker 1: too hard at that relationship too early on. Of course,

1149
01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:04,600
Speaker 1: they had big hurdles, you know, coming off this season. Uh,

1150
01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:07,120
Speaker 1: but I do believe that, like so many Batchelor couples

1151
01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:11,800
Speaker 1: have overcome hurdles, and those are very overcome herble. But

1152
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:13,640
Speaker 1: I just want to I just like when they you're

1153
01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:15,320
Speaker 1: interviewing them, but I'm not sure if you're here. The

1154
01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:18,160
Speaker 1: second time we had them, but I was like, oh,

1155
01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:24,800
Speaker 1: these two, like everything is a struggle, like everyday, serious conversations,

1156
01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:27,320
Speaker 1: and when you're six months and you should just be

1157
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:31,760
Speaker 1: having a blast. Yeah, you should be having fun show.

1158
01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:33,880
Speaker 1: You should be having serious conversations, but you should also

1159
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:36,080
Speaker 1: be having a blast. It shouldn't be about the show

1160
01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:39,600
Speaker 1: brings a different element, right it does, But they just

1161
01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:42,000
Speaker 1: had to work so hard. Maybe this will be a

1162
01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:45,680
Speaker 1: Peter and Kelly reunion at some point, wouldn't that be

1163
01:05:45,720 --> 01:05:48,480
Speaker 1: fancy and fun? We can cover it right here on

1164
01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 1: almost Famous. But for right now, Clayton and Susie are done.

1165
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:58,360
Speaker 1: They're moving forward, uh, in their own separate directions. Well, uh,

1166
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:00,960
Speaker 1: let's I think it's gonna be be the final headline

1167
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:04,959
Speaker 1: maybe one or two here, but Haley reveals she lied

1168
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:10,360
Speaker 1: to Becca Tilly about her Bachelor Nation fandom. At first.

1169
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:14,480
Speaker 1: This is so good, so cute. Okay, So Haley was

1170
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:18,200
Speaker 1: a huge Bachelor fan, but when she met Becca for

1171
01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:21,720
Speaker 1: the first time, she was like, oh, yeah, what season

1172
01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:25,000
Speaker 1: are you from? And she very much knew what season's

1173
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:27,080
Speaker 1: Becca was from, said that she was one of her

1174
01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:29,960
Speaker 1: favorites all the year season and on Christmas season, but

1175
01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:31,920
Speaker 1: she just tried to play cool like she wasn't a

1176
01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:34,000
Speaker 1: big fan, and then later had to admit like, I

1177
01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:36,600
Speaker 1: totally lied to you and knew exactly wh were and

1178
01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:41,840
