Speaker 1: Looka Matt a cat and may mate.
Speaker 2: Hi guys, and welcome back to another episode of Batch Uncut,
Speaker 2: which is part of Life Uncut, except for it's not here,
Speaker 2: and it's Maddie Jay once again. Because for some reason,
Speaker 2: you guys keep saying that you think he's funny, and
Speaker 2: then he has a very inflated sense of his own
Speaker 2: ego and he keeps on coming back.
Speaker 3: I don't get any of these compliments. They're all being
Speaker 3: funneled towards you. You're hogging everything.
Speaker 2: Okay, every time we do these records every week, Matt's like,
Speaker 2: you hugged the Marc again. That's the fight we have.
Speaker 3: You said you wouldn't bring that up on.
Speaker 2: I have a bone I want to pick with you, actually,
Speaker 2: and I've been saving this.
Speaker 3: He said a boner.
Speaker 2: I was like, wow, I'll get a start with the
Speaker 2: sexual and.
Speaker 3: Should I bend over now when the podcast is finished? Bone?
Speaker 3: Don't pick away? Where do you want me?
Speaker 2: Okay? I want to talk to you about something that
Speaker 2: you started doing every night and it's very annoying.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry. I try and have sex with you once
Speaker 3: in a while, all right, you don't do that every night?
Speaker 3: Use me for trying to get some love and once
Speaker 3: in a while.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a long and lonely lockdown. No, the
Speaker 2: thing I want to talk to you about, and it's
Speaker 2: something that I had really genuinely thought that I knew
Speaker 2: all of your bad habits now. I thought that we'd
Speaker 2: gone past the point where, like, you know, you leave
Speaker 2: the cover doors open, your fart around the house, you
Speaker 2: leave your underwear and your pants on the floor. Like
Speaker 2: we've talked about all these things.
Speaker 3: Hey, tell me what you really think.
Speaker 2: I want to talk about your breathing?
Speaker 3: What what do you mean?
Speaker 2: What do you mean?
Speaker 4: So?
Speaker 2: I don't know, guys, I know that there's going to
Speaker 2: be some of you who are listening to theirs who
Speaker 2: you're not a cuddler and maybe your partner's like a
Speaker 2: real cuddler. So Matt's cuddler at nighttime and I'm less
Speaker 2: of a cudlor. I still like a cuddle. Don't get
Speaker 2: me wrong. I'm here for and you know every s
Speaker 2: often I want to feel loved. But Matt has recently
Speaker 2: started mouth breathing on me whilst he's cuddling at night time.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm so sorry. Who do I think? I am
Speaker 3: trying to breathe at nighttime as I embrace my partner.
Speaker 3: I mean, I apologize that. You know, it's despicable the
Speaker 3: conditions that you have to live under.
Speaker 2: I know, I agree, but it's like this, And actually
Speaker 2: sometimes sometimes it's like this. Sometimes it sounds like he's
Speaker 2: playing tennis and he goes and I'm really sorry if
Speaker 2: you have issues with ASMR, because that's going to make
Speaker 2: you feel wildly uncomfortable.
Speaker 3: Look, okay, I admit that has been something that's crept
Speaker 3: up and is a habit that has now become quite regular.
Speaker 2: You can't blame me for telling you that you should
Speaker 2: stop breathing in the middle of the night.
Speaker 3: What I find frustrating is that I've always been quite
Speaker 3: proud of the fact that I'm a good person and
Speaker 3: to sleep with.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's a really good ladies modest too.
Speaker 3: Like I remember in the past, whenever you would wake
Speaker 3: me up and say you're snoring, instantly, I would be like, no,
Speaker 3: I'm not, I don't know what you're talking about. I
Speaker 3: would have strict denial.
Speaker 2: Wait, so what you're saying is that you gaslight me. Yeah.
Speaker 3: The other thing that I do as well when I'm
Speaker 3: sleeping is that I like to lay on my stomach
Speaker 3: and have my elbows out to the side, so I
Speaker 3: kind of rest my head on my hands. And so
Speaker 3: as I get older, I now realize that my sleeping
Speaker 3: habits are getting worse and worse and worse.
Speaker 2: When you say that, Matt, Kay, When Matt says he
Speaker 2: likes to lay with his elbows out, what he actually
Speaker 2: failed to mention then is that every swarf and he
Speaker 2: has a spasm and just smacks me in the head.
Speaker 2: That's the other part. Also the fact that he likes
Speaker 2: to breathe out of his backs on. At the same time,
Speaker 2: there's a lot going on. Who Okay, I feel like
Speaker 2: we've talked enough about it our bedroom antics. I'm yours specifically, I'm.
Speaker 3: So sorry that you're so perfect and I'm just this
Speaker 3: absolute mess of a man to be that in the heavenics.
Speaker 2: I will forgive you. Thank you. I feel validated now. Anyway,
Speaker 2: you come here not to listen to us five. You
Speaker 2: come here to fifty percent listen to ask bicker, but
Speaker 2: also to listen to us unpack what has been happening
Speaker 2: on the last two episodes of The Bachelor.
Speaker 3: Question.
Speaker 2: Can we have a show of hands as to who
Speaker 2: is still watching.
Speaker 3: Anyone out there, Hello, just us And a few times
Speaker 3: I've spoken to people and said, hey, are you watching
Speaker 3: the Bachelor, And the consistent answer is like, nah, not
Speaker 3: right now.
Speaker 2: There's been a few people who have messaged to say
Speaker 2: that they haven't watched the show, but they are listening
Speaker 2: to the recaps, and this is how they're keeping up
Speaker 2: to date. So I'm glad that we can bring you
Speaker 2: a bit of the information. And just so you know,
Speaker 2: every single thing that we tell you on this podcast
Speaker 2: is one hundred percent accurate. We don't embellish anything.
Speaker 3: Nothing at all. Hey, for the record, I am enjoying
Speaker 3: this season. I'm into it.
Speaker 2: I am so enjoying it, and I know that that
Speaker 2: seems to be going against the common thread, but I
Speaker 2: also think it's because I enjoyed doing these recaps much.
Speaker 3: All Right, I know that we paid out a lot,
Speaker 3: but for the record, I'm really enjoying the season.
Speaker 2: I am beyond invested. I can't wait for Holly to win.
Speaker 2: All right, let's hit the ground running. Let's do episode thirteen.
Speaker 3: It's a matin.
Speaker 2: I don't know is fourteen. It can't be fourteen? Where
Speaker 2: it is on uneven numbers.
Speaker 3: We don't know what episode it is, but Brooks had
Speaker 3: a single date sec date with Brooke. Let's go, so.
Speaker 2: Brokie gets the single date on this episode. And that
Speaker 2: is something we already know if you listen to the
Speaker 2: last episode or the last recap, because Brookie told everyone
Speaker 2: that it was happening, and once again there is no
Speaker 2: date card.
Speaker 3: I believe she said in the last episode, this is mine, bitchez,
Speaker 3: you're all going home because I'm gonna win this motherfucking competition.
Speaker 2: So they get to the top of this building in
Speaker 2: the middle of the city of Sydney, so so high,
Speaker 2: so very high, and they're doing a dangerous activity, which
Speaker 2: is why they have to have protective gear on.
Speaker 4: I didn't realize that I'd have to wear this sort
Speaker 4: of heavy harness during pilates, just.
Speaker 3: In the corner setting up a sex wing.
Speaker 2: Okay, so then they have to do pilates, which I mean,
Speaker 2: I feel sorry for Jimmy because because pilates sucks.
Speaker 3: I don't know any guys out there who enjoy doing polarates,
Speaker 3: even if it's like two hundred meters above the city.
Speaker 2: Okay, but you're implying that Jimmy didn't organize this date
Speaker 2: then if you feel sorry for him, which are you
Speaker 2: telling me that the Bachelor doesn't organize the dates?
Speaker 3: I reckon At the start of the season, they would
Speaker 3: have said, hey, Jimmy, so there's this Pilates date we'll
Speaker 3: do up this building. And Jimmy's like, heyeah, we'll do
Speaker 3: that next week, next week, next week. And now it's
Speaker 3: a last date, and they're like, Jimmy, you have to
Speaker 3: do this Pilaratees date. And he's like, oh shit.
Speaker 2: And in true kinky captain form, there was a lot
Speaker 2: of sexual innuendos that were at play here.
Speaker 3: That's actually a good stretch. It's good for you as well.
Speaker 2: Not only was there lots of sexual innuendos, there was
Speaker 2: also lots of very audible kissing. I think if there's
Speaker 2: one rule in The Bachelor, it's that you're try and
Speaker 2: not make the noise with your mouth.
Speaker 3: To be fair, I don't think this was Jimmy. I
Speaker 3: think this was Brooks to.
Speaker 2: Hold her back. I just want to put in here
Speaker 2: for everyone. If you get really triggered by listening to
Speaker 2: people eat and they're gonna eat each other's faces, I
Speaker 2: just want you to skip ahead a little while or
Speaker 2: don't and really feel immersed inside their mouths.
Speaker 3: But if you like ASMR, enjoy this. Turn the volume
Speaker 3: right up and just enjoy every second. It's good to
Speaker 3: see a bit of tongue on the batch, don't you think.
Speaker 2: I remember you saying and giving advice to Locke, saying
Speaker 2: that the one thing you shouldn't do is kiss with
Speaker 2: an open mouth. Unfortunately for Lockie it looked like he
Speaker 2: was kissing his grandma the entire time was only ever
Speaker 2: kissed closed mouth, And then he had you to blame
Speaker 2: for it. What was your tactic? I remember our single date,
Speaker 2: and I remember there was a lot of side tongue,
Speaker 2: and it just was like too much to look at.
Speaker 3: What as if I was giving you side tongue.
Speaker 2: I don't mean you were giving me side. You went
Speaker 2: like licking me the side of my tongue. It was
Speaker 2: the camera was on the side, and therefore the part
Speaker 2: of my tongue you could see was the so.
Speaker 3: I gave you like a little like a rationed amount
Speaker 3: of tongue.
Speaker 2: It was just the tip.
Speaker 5: It was.
Speaker 3: It was just I'd always leave you wanting more.
Speaker 2: Look, and here we are with the mouth breathing, so
Speaker 2: Brook goes from being a top of this very high
Speaker 2: mountain doing about five minutes of pilates. Did Jimmy wanting
Speaker 2: to share a little bit of Melbourne with her? This
Speaker 2: one's very Melbourne. It's so Melbourne.
Speaker 3: So I wonder if they're gonna be locked inside Jimmy's
Speaker 3: house the next two months.
Speaker 2: They're only allowed out for one hour exercise to day
Speaker 2: and everyone has to wear a mask. Okay, welcome to Melbourne.
Speaker 2: We know that that is going to be really upsetting
Speaker 2: for some Melbourne listeners. We're joking, we're in Sydney, We're
Speaker 2: in the same boat now, and yeah, it sucks. It
Speaker 2: sucks for everybody.
Speaker 3: Okay, So they're gonna do a Melbourne themed date? Are
Speaker 3: we thinking maybe trams?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: I'm thinking they're gonna sit outside in the rain.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh and maybe watch AFL.
Speaker 2: Oh I love AFL. What else could they do? Maybe
Speaker 2: they'll get a coffee? Do you know what I reckon?
Speaker 2: They're gonna get a coffee? Do you think do you
Speaker 2: think Starbucks might be a sponsor of this episode?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 3: I don't know. Let's have a listen.
Speaker 2: Coffee.
Speaker 4: I love coffee, coffee, coffee. I can definitely start seeing
Speaker 4: where things are going, especially with you know how he's
Speaker 4: going with the coffee.
Speaker 2: I actually have nothing to add to this part of
Speaker 2: the date, like nothing at all. It was such a
Speaker 2: filler part of a date. And I get that they
Speaker 2: needed to kind of like bring in the sponsors. I
Speaker 2: know it's very important. They were running out of money.
Speaker 2: We've been saying this on every other episode. They were like,
Speaker 2: we just need a cash injection. Starbucks came to the rescue.
Speaker 2: Now at least we're going to have a finale. They
Speaker 2: couldn't get to hometowns without this part of the date. Guys,
Speaker 2: but it was a bit weird, and I think everybody watching.
Speaker 2: I know there was a lot of people in the
Speaker 2: Facebook discussion group who were like, this is hardly subtle advertising.
Speaker 2: And I think if I was Brooke, I think I'd
Speaker 2: be a little bit pissed that my entire date became
Speaker 2: a branded exercise.
Speaker 3: For the record, Starbucks coffee very delicious.
Speaker 2: It's actually really nice. This episode is brought to you
Speaker 2: by Starbucks. So that part of the date ends very quickly.
Speaker 2: Jimmy and Brooke, our captain Kinking and Brooke go to
Speaker 2: have their intimacy time and what do you think they
Speaker 2: do whilst having their intimacy time.
Speaker 3: Well, they've just drunk their body weight worth in coffee,
Speaker 3: so surely they couldn't have more coffee. I don't know
Speaker 3: about you, but I could go another coffee. Poor Brook
Speaker 3: is having heart palpitations right now. She's sweating bullets with anxiety.
Speaker 2: I actually felt sorry for this is why she started
Speaker 2: naddling her mouth off and she's like, oh, I've got
Speaker 2: codependency issues. She's having an anxiety at Tag. The poor
Speaker 2: thing just done a triple dump of Express.
Speaker 3: And Jimmy's there racking up crushed coffee beans. So Brooke,
Speaker 3: do you want one? Or I have one?
Speaker 2: Go On, have a shot, go on, have a shot.
Speaker 2: It'll feel good. Oh god. But you know what, this
Speaker 2: is the time when Brook opens up and one of
Speaker 2: the things I couldn't get past in this conversation. And
Speaker 2: I know Brook, she's got a very sweet way that
Speaker 2: she talks, but during this intimacy scene, it goes to
Speaker 2: a whole other level. It's like when Osha in the
Speaker 2: last episode was like loos Brook really takes on this
Speaker 2: like new tone to her voice, and she's talking like
Speaker 2: she's a meditation coad. She's like, I'm a relationship girl
Speaker 2: and I can see him in my future and I
Speaker 2: love pilates and coffee animals.
Speaker 3: Do you think that she was so hyped up on
Speaker 3: coffee that they had to bring it back down by
Speaker 3: giving a valiant just to equal her out.
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I really feel sorry for Brooke.
Speaker 2: I mean, we touched on in the last episode. I
Speaker 2: think that she has come back into this environment with
Speaker 2: such an inflated sense of what their relationship is. And
Speaker 2: I don't necessarily blame her. I think being in the
Speaker 2: outside world. I think seeing what's been happening, seeing the
Speaker 2: pap shots, which she brings up with Jimmy. She talks
Speaker 2: about Lily's pap shots, and she really kind of puts
Speaker 2: Jimmy in a situation where he has to reassure her.
Speaker 2: He has to make her feel like, you know, what's
Speaker 2: happening with the other girls is not as important. And
Speaker 2: I do think that maybe the reason why she's feeling
Speaker 2: this level of confidence is because he has done some
Speaker 2: reassuring on the outside world, maybe done a little bit
Speaker 2: too much reassuring We're never gonna know.
Speaker 3: We'll never know, well, like, okay, obviously, when you're dealing
Speaker 3: with any type of trauma, that person who's going to
Speaker 3: help you through that, you're going to build a really
Speaker 3: strong connection with. And you know, we don't know if
Speaker 3: Jimmy called her once or called her a hundred times.
Speaker 3: We're not sure. I mean, I do think that Jimmy
Speaker 3: would have been really respectful, so I'd like to think
Speaker 3: that he didn't lead her down the garden path. But
Speaker 3: I think it's also worth noting that the pap shots
Speaker 3: that she's talking about, I mean, for anyone who hasn't
Speaker 3: seen them, if you cast your memories back to the
Speaker 3: single date with Lily and Jimmy, they're on the beach
Speaker 3: and she's straddling him and they're kissing, like, I don't
Speaker 3: think they're that bad. Like if she was topless, I think, hey,
Speaker 3: now you've got someone to answer for, Jimmy.
Speaker 2: But it also wouldn't be on primetime television, that's for sure.
Speaker 3: It's a damn shame, But don't I don't think he
Speaker 3: really had to justify what he was doing with Lily,
Speaker 3: Like they were just hugging and kissing. I think that's
Speaker 3: pretty stock standard.
Speaker 2: No, I agree, And I also think that, like obviously
Speaker 2: Brooke really needed that reassurance. And one of the things
Speaker 2: that what you just touched on when you said that
Speaker 2: maybe because she's been through this traumatic experience. She's just
Speaker 2: lost her granddad, and she's made this huge sacrifice to
Speaker 2: leave her family when they're in this state of mourning
Speaker 2: to come and pursue this man. So she probably feels
Speaker 2: like she has so much more writing on the experience
Speaker 2: than what the other girls do, and she probably feels
Speaker 2: like she's had that reassurance from him and in her mind,
Speaker 2: And I think any of us would think this if
Speaker 2: you've just had someone in your life die and then
Speaker 2: the guy that you were seeing on a reality TV
Speaker 2: show is like, I really want you to come back.
Speaker 2: Let's assume he said that. We don't know for sure,
Speaker 2: we have no idea, but if he did say that,
Speaker 2: I would think he wanted me to come back because
Speaker 2: it was going to be me.
Speaker 3: He wants to marry me totally.
Speaker 2: That would be my assumption. And of course, like we said,
Speaker 2: all of these things are assumptions. But I feel sorry
Speaker 2: for Brooks. I think that she went from being this sweet,
Speaker 2: really endearing, like just gonna say character because obviously, like
Speaker 2: she's not a character, she's a real human. But her
Speaker 2: characterization on the show to coming back and being like
Speaker 2: slapped with this villainous edit, And I just don't think
Speaker 2: she's villainous. I don't think that she is the stage
Speaker 2: five crazy clinger that she's been made out to be.
Speaker 2: I just think that maybe she's feeling a little bit
Speaker 2: damaged at the moment.
Speaker 3: She's just drunk eight liters of coffee. I mean, the
Speaker 3: poor girl. Anybody who drinks that much is going to
Speaker 3: go a little bit crazy.
Speaker 2: All right, let's get into the group a date. The
Speaker 2: group date, it was another fucking weird one.
Speaker 3: Let's be true. It was a little bit woo woo.
Speaker 2: It was a bit woo woo.
Speaker 3: Also, when I say a little bit woo woo, I
Speaker 3: mean it was fucking woo woo.
Speaker 2: What would you do if someone was trying to analyze
Speaker 2: your personality based on your face, Like, what would be
Speaker 2: your reaction to that?
Speaker 3: Oh God, I'd be like, hopefully a big nose counts
Speaker 3: for something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what they say about a big nose, buddy.
Speaker 3: What's that?
Speaker 2: You can smell things real? Alright, So if you missed
Speaker 2: the group day, I.
Speaker 3: Was so surprised you didn't go on throwing a sexual
Speaker 3: innuendo right then and there?
Speaker 2: What do you mean? I was, Yeah, look, I was trying,
Speaker 2: who are you, Laura? You've had a highbrow, big nose,
Speaker 2: big schlong. Was just a real easy one, wasn't it.
Speaker 2: It was too It was just too simple. Sure, I'm
Speaker 2: better than that. I've surprised myself. All right, So this
Speaker 2: group date, what they did on this group date, and
Speaker 2: I want to tell you about a story that happened
Speaker 2: on our group date, because you know, I like to
Speaker 2: relate everything back to us. This group date, they had
Speaker 2: a facial recognition expert, and what she wanted to do.
Speaker 2: Her name was Marie, and what she did was she
Speaker 2: would look at their faces and then try and discover
Speaker 2: what characteristics they had about their personality. Now, Marie, I
Speaker 2: am going to bet my hard earned money and my
Speaker 2: children that she is an actress and that she actually
Speaker 2: has no skills in reading people's facial expressions.
Speaker 3: Is it a thing? I mean like other people.
Speaker 2: It's not a university degree. Let's be real. I think
Speaker 2: you can get maybe a short course in nimbon.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, very credible.
Speaker 2: It's okay, what happened on our season and if you
Speaker 2: guys can cast your memories back, if you watched our season.
Speaker 2: One of our single dates, we had to sit down
Speaker 2: with somebody who was a fortune teller. Is that we
Speaker 2: call them a psychic psychic. We sat down with the
Speaker 2: psychic and she talked about all the different issues or
Speaker 2: things that we might face in the future, and she
Speaker 2: really played into some of the insecurities that I had
Speaker 2: verbalized to production and also that Matt had verbalized to production.
Speaker 3: So do you remember what her prediction was for us
Speaker 3: as a couple. It wasn't good, was it? Mate?
Speaker 2: It wasn't two kids living in a two better and Bondaie,
Speaker 2: that's for sure.
Speaker 3: I mean, isn't it great how things just turned out
Speaker 3: for the best? Bad breath, come in your waist.
Speaker 2: It's feel a warm, hot air in future. So she
Speaker 2: said some really negative things. And the reason why she
Speaker 2: said that is because they still really wanted me to
Speaker 2: open up at that point in time, and up until
Speaker 2: Lockie season, I genuinely believed that she was a psychic,
Speaker 2: that they hired a psychic. Anyway, our bloody psychic ended
Speaker 2: up on Lockie season. But now she'd done a new course.
Speaker 2: She was a relationship expert and it was the same actress,
Speaker 2: and I felt like everything I knew to be true
Speaker 2: in the world had been shook to its core. So
Speaker 2: I'm going to say that I think Marie is an actress.
Speaker 2: I think she has just she's got a cameo. She's
Speaker 2: on there for the one episode, and we might see
Speaker 2: you're back in season nine.
Speaker 3: I really hope that our sidekick comes back for Brooks season.
Speaker 3: I'm like, what's she going to be next window cleaner?
Speaker 3: What do we got? She's going to be driving the
Speaker 3: limos of the guy hasing girls up to see brook.
Speaker 2: So with this group date, there were some very interesting
Speaker 2: things that Marie pointed out about the girls and about
Speaker 2: their relationships. Because you have such a sensitive chin. So
Speaker 2: the thing that's like just screaming at me is your
Speaker 2: two foreheads. The last thing that anybody ever wants to
Speaker 2: hear is that their forehead is screaming at you. Hey,
Speaker 2: that's the five head. Poor Ashes now wildly insecure about
Speaker 2: the size of a forehead.
Speaker 3: She sat down and she's like, holy shit, that is
Speaker 3: a forehead and a half. Oh, poor Ash.
Speaker 2: She's like, you're really strong headed. I don't think you
Speaker 2: had a goal with that what what did you say head?
Speaker 2: A goal would have in your head, but a ball
Speaker 2: into the I don't want a sport from who knows
Speaker 2: you can give great head with that. So Lily has
Speaker 2: a sensitive chin, which obviously means that she's sensitive. Ash
Speaker 2: has a great, big forehead. Poor Ash. I don't know
Speaker 2: what that bit about her personality.
Speaker 3: Credit to the girls. I don't know if production were like, hey,
Speaker 3: we know this is all a little bit. You know,
Speaker 3: how do we say woo? But just roll with it.
Speaker 3: But I love how all the girls, regardless of what
Speaker 3: we said about them, they were like, oh my god,
Speaker 3: she's so great, She's amazing.
Speaker 2: I just want to say, firstly, man and I do
Speaker 2: not think that Ash has a big forehead. I just
Speaker 2: want to say that before somebody comes to me and
Speaker 2: says Ash she's beautiful. We agree, she's beautiful.
Speaker 3: Agree, Yeah, definitely, it's.
Speaker 2: Just what was said on National TV that a forehead
Speaker 2: was screaming. Anyway, once again, Holly is the one who
Speaker 2: is clearly the favorite in this group date and I'm
Speaker 2: going to say, I know I picked it from day dot.
Speaker 2: I'm feeling very cocky and very good about the fifty
Speaker 2: dollar bit that I made, but they're not doing much
Speaker 2: to try and hide the fact that she's the winner.
Speaker 3: What did they say about her appearance?
Speaker 2: Remember, she's just smoking.
Speaker 3: The lady was just like, yeah, you're so perfect.
Speaker 2: You guys are gonna be perfect. You don't have perfect
Speaker 2: little Bondai babies.
Speaker 3: Jimmy would never breathe on you heavily at night time.
Speaker 2: That poor Laura from season five.
Speaker 3: Okay, I never the group day and like, what a
Speaker 3: group day. Fantastic work production, that was delicious.
Speaker 2: I'm really glad that Starbucks put a bit of extra
Speaker 2: budget in the tank and you could get those posters
Speaker 2: done a six instead of a four.
Speaker 3: That's right, they had the posters.
Speaker 2: I didn't get what was the point of the posters.
Speaker 2: I know it was like the asymmetry to the faces,
Speaker 2: but I don't even think they talked about asymmetry.
Speaker 3: I feel like they just had like an intern on
Speaker 3: set who could do graphic design, and they were just like,
Speaker 3: I don't know, whip up like six weird photos of
Speaker 3: the girls.
Speaker 2: Like it reminds me of those. If anybody else ever
Speaker 2: googles or looks at plastic surgery on Instagram, this will
Speaker 2: come up in your feet. I always get these like
Speaker 2: weird asymmetry pictures that come up, which are like, asymmetry
Speaker 2: is beautiful. Imagine if we were all the same on
Speaker 2: both sides. And that's a really really random thing that
Speaker 2: I just added here, and I'm gonna say that ninety
Speaker 2: nine percent of people have never seen it. So yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm glad that we all listened through that ten seconds.
Speaker 3: Look, look, I was a little lost, but I was
Speaker 3: I was like walking with you, being like, hey, wherever
Speaker 3: you take this, I'm gonna I'm gonna follow you, and
Speaker 3: we're gonna make this work. But should we just go
Speaker 3: with a cocktail party? Now?
Speaker 2: So what you're saying is that I walked you somewhere
Speaker 2: and you want to go back.
Speaker 3: Why was it as bad as the head butt line
Speaker 3: with a soccer ball? Probably not?
Speaker 2: They had one wine guy.
Speaker 3: But hey, i'll help you out of this one, and
Speaker 3: let's talk about the cocktail party. Because you said that
Speaker 3: Brook's not a stage five.
Speaker 2: She got real stage five.
Speaker 3: She got a little stage five. Do you think she
Speaker 3: had too much champagne?
Speaker 2: I think she wants to hog time and find him
Speaker 2: up and put him in a basement somewhere.
Speaker 3: I mean, don't we all.
Speaker 2: That's Jimmy. He's gonna gag on. He's in Brooks basement
Speaker 2: right now.
Speaker 3: Okay, So the issue is the issue is between Brook
Speaker 3: and Jimmy is the fact that being a pilot, even
Speaker 3: though it's only flying domestic routes a lot of the time,
Speaker 3: he's going to finish work at eleven o'clock at night.
Speaker 3: So the big jeopardy between Brook and Jimmy is the
Speaker 3: fact that Jimmy flies planes domestically and he doesn't return
Speaker 3: back home until roughly eleven pm. So imagine this, Laura,
Speaker 3: you're cooking dinner, You're sitting there. Where's your partner? Oh no,
Speaker 3: he's nowhere to be seen. You wake up in the morning,
Speaker 3: you have breakfast. Where is he? He's still in better sleep.
Speaker 2: How does that sound like the dream come true? No?
Speaker 2: I think the big thing here is that he also
Speaker 2: wants to be a long haul flight pilot person.
Speaker 3: Well said, Well said, hey, Jimmy, where do you want
Speaker 3: to be in ten years? A long haul flight person.
Speaker 2: A lung con flight pilot person. Okay, but he wants
Speaker 2: to do long haul, which means he'll be gone for
Speaker 2: five days, then he'll be back for five days. And
Speaker 2: Brook has made it. I mean, she's kind of alluded
Speaker 2: to it that she's a little bit codependent in relationships
Speaker 2: and likes her partner to be around. Think something that's
Speaker 2: really important that Brook said, which seems to have been
Speaker 2: a real sticking point for Jimmy, is this.
Speaker 4: I would need from you, like somewhat a compromise to
Speaker 4: make it work though I want to spend nights with
Speaker 4: my partner.
Speaker 2: How dare Brook usks for compromise that you can't do that?
Speaker 2: From the Bachelor? It's his waying all the highway. How
Speaker 2: dare you verbalize that maybe something wouldn't match up and
Speaker 2: that you have needs as a woman.
Speaker 3: The quicker he kicks her out of the show, the
Speaker 3: better Brook.
Speaker 2: It's like almost like when something doesn't match up. So
Speaker 2: the fact that Brook just wants her boyfriend home at
Speaker 2: night times, it's like she's a bad person. How dare
Speaker 2: she ask for that? It's asking for too much from him,
Speaker 2: And I get it, it is asking for too much
Speaker 2: from him if he needs to change his career. I
Speaker 2: don't think she was saying that. I do think she
Speaker 2: was like, Hey, what are the compromises that we make
Speaker 2: so that way we would get to spend the most
Speaker 2: amount of time together, pretty normal conversation, have pretty normal compromise.
Speaker 2: But that makes her a Billain Rock I'm evil.
Speaker 3: But what she doesn't realize is that after The Bachelor finishes,
Speaker 3: Jimmy's not going to be a pilot. He's going to
Speaker 3: join me on TikTok and we'll be dancing our way
Speaker 3: to the We'll be dancing our way to the top.
Speaker 2: And also what she doesn't realize is you just lie
Speaker 2: at this point to win. It doesn't matter, just say
Speaker 2: whatever he needs. Wait, I want to unpack this one second.
Speaker 2: I always think this, Why don't they just lie? Like
Speaker 2: why do they say things like, oh, well we need
Speaker 2: to compromise, I'll move to Melbourne. Like, just don't say it,
Speaker 2: just say you'll move to Melbourne and then don't do it.
Speaker 3: Well, look at Staph That's what she did.
Speaker 2: True.
Speaker 3: She was like, yeah, no, I love pilots. Parts are great.
Speaker 2: I'm I to you. I said I didn't want to
Speaker 2: have kids for five six years. Look at us now, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I knew you were lying.
Speaker 3: I was like, I saw it as a challenge.
Speaker 2: IM like, I'm going to play hard to get Okay.
Speaker 3: The weird thing is in this part. The weird thing
Speaker 3: is at this cocktail party is the fact that two
Speaker 3: people are going home, right. I think it's a bit
Speaker 3: of a given that it's Ash. Ash is going home,
Speaker 3: and I think it's not a big surprise because we
Speaker 3: haven't seen anything from Ash in the last three weeks.
Speaker 3: But Lily is a big question mark. You know, that
Speaker 3: last episode, she must walked out because when Brooke came
Speaker 3: back and said, hey, I've got the last single day,
Speaker 3: Lily proclaimed that, Hey, I'm not going to take this
Speaker 3: guy home to see my family if we've only ever
Speaker 3: had one date. She almost walked out. She almost walked out,
Speaker 3: but he convinced her to stay. And it felt like
Speaker 3: in a chat that Lily and Jimmy having in tonight's
Speaker 3: cocktail party, that he was kind of giving her more
Speaker 3: reassurance that hey, you know, we had a little fight,
Speaker 3: but we worked through it and I'm glad you hear
Speaker 3: and everything's going to be a okay.
Speaker 2: It was a bit strange, wasn't it. Like usually when
Speaker 2: someone goes home, there's usually some jeopardy during the cocktail party.
Speaker 2: I like that we just steamed ahead everyone blah blah blah.
Speaker 2: Lily goes home, but there always is a little bit
Speaker 2: of jeopardy. There didn't seem to be any jeopardy at
Speaker 2: this cocktail party. Like I was like, oh, that was
Speaker 2: a really nice conversation that the two of them had.
Speaker 2: Lily's going to be safe, She's going to stay there
Speaker 2: to see another day.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: He was like, Hey, that's a beautiful dress. Next minute,
Speaker 3: see bah.
Speaker 2: He's like, I like to see the back of it.
Speaker 3: And she was like, oh, that's so sexy. And he's like, no,
Speaker 3: you didn't get a rose. Get out of here.
Speaker 2: So Lily goes home, and so it does ash and
Speaker 2: we actually had the pure joy of interviewing Lily. And
Speaker 2: that interview is going to come out in the next
Speaker 2: I don't know, hopefully we get it edited and now June,
Speaker 2: in the next day or two, So keep your eyes
Speaker 2: and ears open on the podcast library for that one.
Speaker 3: Do you reckon it'll be a Saturday or Sunday? Do
Speaker 3: you want to confirm or do you want to have
Speaker 3: an air of mystery around whatever?
Speaker 2: We realse I like to keep things interesting.
Speaker 3: Will we release it? Who knows?
Speaker 2: Who knows? Your guess is as good as mine. It
Speaker 2: is time for the big episode. We're now dealing with
Speaker 2: the big dirty dogs. It's Hometowns Baby, episode fourteen. Now
Speaker 2: we still have Carly Holly Brook Jay. I'm saying it
Speaker 2: really slowly cause I kind of forgot who we had left.
Speaker 2: They are the four people who made it to hometowns,
Speaker 2: and you know what, I freaking love hometowns. I also
Speaker 2: know how emotionally invested you are at this point in time,
Speaker 2: or how emotionally invested I was, And when you take
Speaker 2: the Bachelor home to meet your family, it makes it
Speaker 2: so real. And I know that, Like the quintessential thing
Speaker 2: that everyone says after their hometowns is like, now that
Speaker 2: you've met my family, my feelings feel so real. We
Speaker 2: should have put that into the drinking game.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we should have.
Speaker 2: That's a shame that was a missed opportunity there. But
Speaker 2: I really really enjoyed this episode. I feel like now,
Speaker 2: I mean, there's only two episodes left, but I really
Speaker 2: feel like this is one of my favorites.
Speaker 3: Can I ask Laura before we go into this episode,
Speaker 3: when you see your family that's all filmed, isn't it
Speaker 3: the first time you see your family that is on camera?
Speaker 2: Dude, you were there. We walked in together, holding hands.
Speaker 3: Oh sorry, yeah we.
Speaker 2: Did didn't we Can you tell me where does the
Speaker 2: big bouquet of flowers and the bottle of wine come from?
Speaker 2: Like does production just give that to you? And they're like,
Speaker 2: hey give that to that family? Yeah, yes, you had
Speaker 2: nothing to do with like what the flowers. You went like, oh,
Speaker 2: maybe Laura's family would like a big white bunch or
Speaker 2: a colored bunch because she's a bit fruity.
Speaker 3: I think they did ask and I said, I don't
Speaker 3: really care.
Speaker 2: That's good.
Speaker 3: I said, give me the most expensive bottle of wine
Speaker 3: you can get.
Speaker 2: And we got given a bottle of Prosenco. So I
Speaker 2: don't know what that said A lot. First hometown's off
Speaker 2: the ranks is Carli and Carly lives in the Morning Peninsula,
Speaker 2: and it is quite positive that's right. Her house was bananas.
Speaker 3: The helly pat at the back was that was amazing.
Speaker 3: I've never seen one like that in a residential property.
Speaker 2: Imagine taking like the backay little looks. I know everything
Speaker 2: is supposed to be expensive, but Carlie's house was like
Speaker 2: the most expensive thing that's happened on the show. Like
Speaker 2: she took him to the best venue that has happened
Speaker 2: on the show so far, and it was just her
Speaker 2: family home.
Speaker 3: It's a big flex, isn't it. It's like, yes, I
Speaker 3: am stinking rich. You are marrying into wealth, young man.
Speaker 2: Okay, I really think that. And I'm gonna this is
Speaker 2: like a bit of a critique on the editing of
Speaker 2: this hometown. I think Carly's hometown was, out of all
Speaker 2: of them, the most beautiful, sweetest hometown, like her family
Speaker 2: was divine. However, there was a lot of jeopardy around
Speaker 2: her brother, and we were really really set up for
Speaker 2: him to be a hard, hard man.
Speaker 5: But Carly's brother about to arrive, and I noticed that
Speaker 5: Ryan isn't saying much and he hasn't really cracked much
Speaker 5: of a smile since he arrived.
Speaker 2: Ooh, like he's dangerous.
Speaker 1: Ooh ooh.
Speaker 2: So Carly's brother and being literally the nicest man that
Speaker 2: has ever been on the Bachelor. He was so sweet,
Speaker 2: he was so gently spoken, and he just loves his
Speaker 2: little sister.
Speaker 5: I mean, it's been lovely to watch you and Carly together,
Speaker 5: and I'm very proud of particularly for Carly as her brother,
Speaker 5: and to see her being so vulnerable and honest. I mean,
Speaker 5: it's lovely to see that you think very proud of her.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Jimmy is a very nice young man. He seems sincere,
Speaker 5: and the most important thing is Carlie's happy next to him.
Speaker 5: So yeah, I wish them all the very best.
Speaker 2: Okay, I know I'm jumping ahead with this, and like
Speaker 2: for anyone, spoiler alert, Carli goes Home. I feel like
Speaker 2: they had to try and create some suspense on this
Speaker 2: hometown because I just genuinely think her hometown was so perfect.
Speaker 2: I think her family was so divine. I think everyone
Speaker 2: was so welcoming. I don't think there was any grilling
Speaker 2: at all, and they needed to make it make sense
Speaker 2: as to why he was sending literally the most perfect
Speaker 2: woman who has ever walked the face of the earth.
Speaker 3: Home, Wifey Wife's Gone Home. It didn't make any sense
Speaker 3: at all. Even the jeopardy they tried to inject in there,
Speaker 3: it still didn't make sense. It didn't make sense at all.
Speaker 3: Like she had almost I would say, the second best hometown.
Speaker 3: I think out of all the women who are remaining.
Speaker 2: No, I think she had the best one. And I
Speaker 2: like that when they got up to leave, like they
Speaker 2: all have a hug and everything, and Carly's brother's like, hey,
Speaker 2: we'll play golf on the weekend. They're like, yeah, Colly's brother,
Speaker 2: so me, dn't don't don't turn And Jimmy's like, no
Speaker 2: 'or not.
Speaker 3: She's going home next. All right, let's talk about Jay,
Speaker 3: my beloved Jay, who I still think will win.
Speaker 2: I don't think you really think Jay will win.
Speaker 3: No, she's not gonna win.
Speaker 2: Jay just keeps falling on her own swords left, right
Speaker 2: and center.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh my, come on, Jay, Let's have a squeaky
Speaker 3: clean episode, no stuff ups. And then she sees Jimmy
Speaker 3: and she's like, hey, Jimmy, I just shut myself. They
Speaker 3: meet on their date and she's like, hey, Jimmy, the
Speaker 3: phapster over there. I set this up, so just smile
Speaker 3: and act like you love me.
Speaker 2: I don't know what to believe anymore with Jay.
Speaker 3: You even said you're watching Jay under a magnifying glass
Speaker 3: right now. But even even the moment they embraced each
Speaker 3: other at the park, she jumped on Jimmy and you said, oh,
Speaker 3: that's like a it's like a stock standard bachelor jump,
Speaker 3: you know, when you know, you know, when people are
Speaker 3: running to see each other, they embrace, and then the
Speaker 3: woman then jumps up and wraps her legs around him,
Speaker 3: and you thought it was a little bit staged.
Speaker 2: It's getting scandalous, guys. But I think she's watched a
Speaker 2: few episodes of The Bachelor in her time, and I
Speaker 2: think she knows how to play the game a little bit.
Speaker 2: There has been this recurrent issue that maybe Jay is
Speaker 2: on The Bachelor for Instagram followers, and let's be real.
Speaker 2: I mean, oh, we know it's a byproduct of going
Speaker 2: on the show. Look at you, Matthew Johnson. You've got
Speaker 2: a flourishing TikTok. I don't even know what it is.
Speaker 2: You're a flourishing TikTok.
Speaker 3: It's it's a career career, thank you very much.
Speaker 2: I was like, what's the word.
Speaker 3: I was like, really, do you need my Helpia? It's
Speaker 3: a career, Laura, I'm a professional TikToker. That is the
Speaker 3: man you were going to marry. And I wouldn't have
Speaker 3: this position if it wasn't for the Bachelor's so thank Heavens,
Speaker 3: I applied.
Speaker 2: This is true. Look, you get these opportunities that come
Speaker 2: to you, and like, I don't think that everybody goes
Speaker 2: in there thinking I'm going to come out of this
Speaker 2: with like being an Instagram influencer. Like, I don't think
Speaker 2: that that's people's genuine push to do the show. I
Speaker 2: think people go on there with like a really open
Speaker 2: mind of like I hope that I meet someone who
Speaker 2: I love, and if I don't, well then hopefully other
Speaker 2: good opportunities come out of it. Like I think that
Speaker 2: most people go into The Bachelor with a pretty open
Speaker 2: mind about what could happen afterwards. I mean, the odds
Speaker 2: are against you when it comes to actually finding the
Speaker 2: love of your life twenty four to one, not great odds,
Speaker 2: the opportunity of something else coming out of it. I
Speaker 2: e like Britt and I started this podcast as a
Speaker 2: result of doing a reality TV show. We found each other,
Speaker 2: we became friends as a result of doing a reality
Speaker 2: TV show. Lots of other really cool things come as
Speaker 2: a result of it, I guess is like a big thing.
Speaker 3: I think what's different with Jay though? The thing about
Speaker 3: Jay is that not only as she dug her own grave,
Speaker 3: but her family are throwing her under the bus as well.
Speaker 2: When was the last time you met one of Jay's
Speaker 2: exploy friends.
Speaker 5: I can't remember the last time she's She's been through
Speaker 5: a film, so it.
Speaker 2: Comes out of this hometown that Jay has dated somebody
Speaker 2: in the public eye before, and that she's had a
Speaker 2: relationship with someone who's semi famous. It didn't work for
Speaker 2: it out very well. She was completely heartbroken by it.
Speaker 2: It also comes out that she wants to be a presenter.
Speaker 2: So poor Jay, and this is all happening without her knowledge,
Speaker 2: and this is just blow after blow up to blow.
Speaker 2: And I think, like one, if you've watched enough Bachelor
Speaker 2: that you know to go and do the jump, you
Speaker 2: should also have told your friends what to say and
Speaker 2: what not to say to have your back in that situation,
Speaker 2: like prep them, tell them, don't tell him. I want
Speaker 2: to be a prisoner to kick that shit on the download.
Speaker 2: Don't do me dirty.
Speaker 3: But how was the goodbye when he left Jay's home?
Speaker 3: He did not give her any effect at all?
Speaker 2: Well would you don't you think he was feeling a
Speaker 2: little bit like what's true? What's not true?
Speaker 3: But then send her home?
Speaker 2: I know, I'm so angry for Carly.
Speaker 3: Send the WiFi homekeeper there. We love Carlee, we love her,
Speaker 3: we miss her teeth already.
Speaker 2: I'm still sad that those teeth walked down to the
Speaker 2: Batch mansion. When it comes to Jay. Another thing that
Speaker 2: I did point out to Matt when we were watching
Speaker 2: the show, and one of the things that I think
Speaker 2: is just like now, because I, like Matt said, she's
Speaker 2: under a microscope to me, and I think I'm over
Speaker 2: analyzing the stuff that she does. You get this opportunity
Speaker 2: to give the bachelor a little speech before he leaves.
Speaker 2: You know, we saw it with Brooke, we saw it
Speaker 2: with Carlie, We kind of saw it with Holly. She
Speaker 2: didn't she give a terrible speech.
Speaker 3: Because there's no cocktail party. So when you say goodbye,
Speaker 3: when you say goodbye at the front door of your house,
Speaker 3: the next time you're going to see the bachelor is
Speaker 3: in the road ceremony room. So these are the last
Speaker 3: words you will say to him.
Speaker 2: I feel like what Jay said to him was such
Speaker 2: stock standard color by numbers that she waffle.
Speaker 6: It's scary for me because you meeting my family has
Speaker 6: made my feelings even.
Speaker 1: Strong before you.
Speaker 6: I'm not very good at this kind of stuff. So yeah,
Speaker 6: I mean I feel vulnerable at the moment because I
Speaker 6: could see myself falling in love with you, and that's
Speaker 6: really really scary.
Speaker 2: Alrighty, So after the clusterfuck. That was Jay's hometown. We
Speaker 2: are red hot and ready, and it is Holly's turn,
Speaker 2: and of course Holly's hometown is divine.
Speaker 3: So Jimmy is going to be meeting Holly's mom, who
Speaker 3: he's met before, as well as Holly's best friend.
Speaker 4: It will be Sam, My best friend.
Speaker 2: She knows me better than I know myself.
Speaker 3: I'm just imagining at the kitchen table and Holly's like, Sam,
Speaker 3: what's my name again? She's like, it's Holly, all right,
Speaker 3: thanks Sam.
Speaker 2: Matt's been teasing this joke all afternoon. That was it,
Speaker 2: and I was like when we were watching the episode
Speaker 2: and I was like, put the grap down, put the
Speaker 2: grap down. I've got a really good joke. And I
Speaker 2: was like, just tell me the joke, and he was like, no,
Speaker 2: I can't tell you the joke. Put the grap down.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you on the podcast. I I am to see.
Speaker 3: I tried to pull out and you told me not to.
Speaker 2: We all know how good you'll pull out. Men, Matthew Johnson.
Speaker 3: We have to kid, who was it Ricky Gervaez who
Speaker 3: said if you have a joke, win, lose, or draw,
Speaker 3: you have to say it. I regret nothing.
Speaker 2: Do you think this one was a loser, a drawer,
Speaker 2: or a win.
Speaker 3: I reckon, there is somebody out there right now, at
Speaker 3: least one person who had to chuckle at my joke,
Speaker 3: regardless of how bad it was.
Speaker 2: Hello, Holley, Who am I?
Speaker 3: She knows me better than I know myself. Imagine if
Speaker 3: she got her own name. Anyway, Anyway, it was a
Speaker 3: great hometown. Let's move on.
Speaker 2: It was literally so pleasant and lovely. We have nothing
Speaker 2: to say except that we think Holly's gonna win. Let's
Speaker 2: get into Brooks.
Speaker 3: Oh wait, hang on, before we leave Holly's hometown. The jeopardy.
Speaker 3: The jeopardy right now with Holly is that as they
Speaker 3: were saying goodbye, she then kind of has this moment
Speaker 3: of realization that, oh my gosh, you know, now that
Speaker 3: he's meeting the family, this has all become so much
Speaker 3: more real. I'm so afraid of getting hurt. I don't
Speaker 3: want to open up. I'm completely closing up, and maybe
Speaker 3: I'm closing up so much that I'm pushing Jimmy away.
Speaker 2: I reckon, She's fine. At the end of the hometown
Speaker 2: with that little bit of jeopardy where she didn't say
Speaker 2: anything to Jimmy like she They just stood there and
Speaker 2: stared at each other and she said, I'm really scared,
Speaker 2: and then she started crying and it was all like
Speaker 2: a very dramatic I reckon, she said a few things.
Speaker 2: They just cut it out, but.
Speaker 3: Don't you reckon. It was a bit weird how she like.
Speaker 3: He walked off, and then then the camera was shoving
Speaker 3: just an empty, dark black street, and then Holly was
Speaker 3: sitting at the like the curb the step of her house,
Speaker 3: like squatting there doing a poop, like oh yeah. It
Speaker 3: was like she's shitting on the on the doorstep of
Speaker 3: her house. What's what's happening? And then Jimmy was nobody
Speaker 3: to be seen. And then she ran after Jimmy and
Speaker 3: then she was like, I just want one last goodbye.
Speaker 3: I was a bit strange.
Speaker 2: I thought I was expecting her to because she didn't
Speaker 2: say anything, because she didn't tell him how she felt.
Speaker 2: She didn't use that time wisely to say I'm balling
Speaker 2: in love with you, which is like what is expected.
Speaker 3: I just done a shit on my doorstep. That's the
Speaker 3: jeopardy with Holly.
Speaker 2: So she runs after him that then I was expecting more.
Speaker 2: I was expecting more than just I need another goodbye.
Speaker 3: I'm sure it was edited out. It has to be
Speaker 3: you reckon.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, okay. How are you feeling about the
Speaker 2: when we go for goal? The j or holy situation?
Speaker 2: At the moment?
Speaker 3: Do I feel confident?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 2: What is going to happen to the winner?
Speaker 6: Like?
Speaker 2: What does the winner get sex? Does the winner get
Speaker 2: to choose what they want?
Speaker 3: You can have whatever you like?
Speaker 2: I like sex.
Speaker 3: Sex is good's let's sorry for anyone listening. Let's talk
Speaker 3: about Brooks hometown. Will flesh out the details of our
Speaker 3: bet when we're not recording. Brookie Brookie.
Speaker 2: Now it's Brookie.
Speaker 3: It's cut I let Brookie, way Brooky, hungry Brookie? Do
Speaker 3: you want to drink? Brookie? You want to look cookie? Brookie?
Speaker 3: This Brookie want a little Napbooker Brookie. I find it
Speaker 3: very cute. It's very cutesy, too cutesy for me. It
Speaker 3: feels a bit weird when he talks to her like that,
Speaker 3: and I feel like the Brookie thing is new, that's
Speaker 3: only happened recently. I don't know where it's come from.
Speaker 2: Maybe it wasn't I can't remember. I'm trying to cast
Speaker 2: my memory back to before she went away and whether
Speaker 2: he was calling her Brookie or not, or whether they
Speaker 2: just had like cute nicknames that popped up over text
Speaker 2: message since they were like, you know, on the SMS
Speaker 2: all the time.
Speaker 1: Okay, Brookie, get Brookie, I love you Brookie.
Speaker 2: So Brookie takes Jimmy to her hometown, Melbourne.
Speaker 3: Welcome to my hometown, Melmade And Jimmy knows exactly what
Speaker 3: Melbourne is like because he was there last week with.
Speaker 2: Carli and now this is Brookies. I can't call it
Speaker 2: Brookie makes me feel weird. Now this is Brook's opportunity
Speaker 2: to share with Jimmy a little bit about Melbourne.
Speaker 3: More confident.
Speaker 4: We're not having coffee today. I think we had a
Speaker 4: bit too much coffee day.
Speaker 2: Brook is still jacked the nine. She's had like wild
Speaker 2: anxiety for the last week and hasn't slept. She's like quick,
Speaker 2: any more coffee. I've had seven therapy sessions. Just chocolate, no.
Speaker 3: More, Jimmy, make it stop latte.
Speaker 2: There is a lot of jeopardy around Brooks storyline at
Speaker 2: the moment we get to meet her family. Her family
Speaker 2: are divine, However, they have a few choice things to
Speaker 2: say about Brookie. Brook lives in fairyland.
Speaker 3: What are you doing to poor old Brookie.
Speaker 2: We also find out that brook locked at her nana
Speaker 2: in the shed once upon a time when she was
Speaker 2: a kid. And the more that this date progresses, or
Speaker 2: the more that this hometown progresses, the more it's becoming
Speaker 2: very obvious that I think she also wants to lock
Speaker 2: Jimmy in a basement.
Speaker 3: She's like, Jimmy, you couldn't get another bottle of wine,
Speaker 3: could you? There's just one left in the shed in
Speaker 3: the garden.
Speaker 2: Head down to the cellar, Jimmy. Once again, nobody's seen
Speaker 2: Jimmy since filming of that episode.
Speaker 3: The next Rose ceremony, Osh's like, so we don't know
Speaker 3: where Jimmy is.
Speaker 2: He was last scene in Melbourne.
Speaker 3: Brook He's like, Oh, how weird. That's so strange. Big
Speaker 3: take home from Brookie's hometown is the fact that well,
Speaker 3: her brother throws her under the bus, like saying that
Speaker 3: she is someone who is extremely dependent, which clearly is
Speaker 3: not going to work because Jimmy lives in Sydney, so
Speaker 3: he's not going to move. Brookie is going to have
Speaker 3: to relocate her life away from her family and friends.
Speaker 3: With Jimmy in Sydney if they do end up together,
Speaker 3: and let's not forget that Jimmy doesn't finish work until
Speaker 3: eleven pm d it's a miracle that any pilots out
Speaker 3: there who fly domestically have a relationship or family.
Speaker 2: And this has been like the recurrent theme with Brook Like,
Speaker 2: obviously she's come back and she really wants this to
Speaker 2: be a relationship that works for her, but this just
Speaker 2: keeps on rearing its very ugly head. This whole conversation
Speaker 2: around her not being as independent as what I think
Speaker 2: she would like to be in relationships and really needing
Speaker 2: her partner to be there and be this support person
Speaker 2: physically being there, which you know what a lot of
Speaker 2: people need. That takes a very specific person to be
Speaker 2: okay and to opt into a relationship where they know
Speaker 2: that they're going to be making huge compromises around the
Speaker 2: quality time that they can spend with their partner.
Speaker 3: Well, guys, that is pretty much it. And as we
Speaker 3: revealed earlier, we are absolutely devastated that our beloved Carlie
Speaker 3: has gone home.
Speaker 2: I think we should all take a moment's silence for
Speaker 2: the fact that Carl's teeth will no longer be on
Speaker 2: our TV.
Speaker 3: Take your teeth out and leave them in front of
Speaker 3: your doorstep.
Speaker 2: Take your teeth that how many old people do you
Speaker 2: think listening to this podcast?
Speaker 3: And if you're not old, I want you to get
Speaker 3: a chisel hammer, knock out a tooth and put it
Speaker 3: out there for carl she'd really appreciate it.
Speaker 2: It is so wild to me that we had just
Speaker 2: finished Hometowns, like this season has been over in a flash.
Speaker 2: And I think it's because they've been double numbing episodes
Speaker 2: for half the season, because.
Speaker 3: We went through about twelve episodes in one week. Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2: But that is literally it from us, guys. We actually
Speaker 2: have a couple of bonus and little fun interviews that
Speaker 2: we're going to be dropping over the next couple of days.
Speaker 2: We've interviewed Lily and we also have had the pleasure
Speaker 2: of interviewing Carlie. So we're going to drop those little interviews.
Speaker 2: If you are just a die hard sick for it
Speaker 2: batchy fair a la la la lama. We're going to
Speaker 2: drop them probably like on Saturday, but like I can't
Speaker 2: be sure, maybe, so we'll keep checking back.
Speaker 3: Next week is our last week. Then together on the podcast.
Speaker 2: What are we going to do when this is all over?
Speaker 3: I don't know. Bachelourette, Well, I don't know if I've
Speaker 3: got time, Laura, I'm very busy.
Speaker 2: I mean, we have had a few fights that haven't
Speaker 2: made it onto the podcast whilst we've been recording this, but.
Speaker 3: They've been healthy discussions, I believe.
Speaker 2: Matt afterwards said that it's a good thing that we
Speaker 2: can find about stuff on the podcast because then we
Speaker 2: can have makeup sex. And tonight we'll be having some
Speaker 2: makeup sex. Will we No, I'm tying.
Speaker 3: You can't tease me like that. Will we do Bachelorette?
Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm sure at this.
Speaker 2: Point, Guys, maybe we should put up a pole. We
Speaker 2: need to know. We need to make a decision. Should
Speaker 2: we do bachelorette recaps? We want to hear from you. Also,
Speaker 2: Matten needs the confidence boost, he needs the reassurance, he
Speaker 2: needs the affirmation. Tell him you want him back on
Speaker 2: the podcast.
Speaker 3: Love me, Love me please, And thank.
Speaker 2: You to everybody who's left a review or commented about
Speaker 2: the batchel On Cut episodes and that you've enjoyed them.
Speaker 2: This has been such a wild ride and we have
Speaker 2: thoroughly enjoyed it thus far, and next week is going
Speaker 2: to be the real home race. We're going to bring
Speaker 2: it on down to hometown that that was where we
Speaker 2: just were. We're going to bring it on down to
Speaker 2: the final. Anyway, Guys, if you haven't left a review,
