• 0:03
  Speaker 1: with our radio. Yo yo yo, I'm then, I'm Ashley,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: and I'm back. I heard Nick did a great job
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: filling in last week. I have not listened yet, but
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: he did a great job. But we missed you a ton,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: and I'm very happy that you're back. Not only will
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: you get a lot better recap than Nick and I did.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: But hey, I just don't to let me know. I
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: am in Beaver Creek, Colorado right now. I took the
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: day um to ski a little bit. So if anybody's
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: wondering where I'm at, or if anybody comes into yell
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: to tell me to get out of the lobby, Um,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: why are you a skier? His skiing ability is good.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: I can say that I've seen that confident skier. Yeah,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: we see that on Winter Games. Yeah. So um, anyways, hey,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: let's move in. I know this week was the crazy episode. Actually, uh,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: like always, you are the expert. Please give us your
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: run down. Okay, So our first day is a group day.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: It's a wrestling day. I think it may have been
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: the worst day ever, or at least the worst day
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: the date that I would least ever want to be
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: on um, I would have had completely good yes, because Bibby,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: you know, you call her no chill Bibby or whatever,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: even though we all know that I love Babby. She
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: she was like the only one who was like, this
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: is bull Oh I can't say, you know what I mean?
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: And then like we had those evil wrestler ladies divas
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: from the eighties and everybody was like the two ladies
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: were expecting the girls to know who they are and
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: they were just given. They were so kindcending. She made
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: fun of Bibby's name, like what She's like, what did
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: your mom? What was she thinking calling you Bibby on us?
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: She's like, what kind of name is that? Ben? Did
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: you find the wrestling sexy or goofy uh? You know,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I don't think it I could call it sexy. I
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: think it was weird. I think the whole thing is weird.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I think actually is right. I mean, it's kind of
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: goes back to when I was in the Battoort. We
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: did a a boxing day, and any time on this
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: show that you force aggression out of anybody, there's already
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: so much built up anger in general that it just
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: gets awkward fast. And I guess maybe that's what the
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: show wants. Oh yeah, And I think that they continuously
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: put Bibby in these situations where, you know, we know
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: that she can't She's like the emotional one who can't
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: deal with BS, and they keep testing her and you
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: can really see that in this wrestling portion of the
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: to bring out her no chill. Yeah, absolutely, they know
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: exactly how the Yeah do you think Bibiana is in
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the wrong during the from the first three episodes leading
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: up until obviously this one, has she been in the
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: wrong or do you find that you're agreeing with a
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: lot of her attitude? What do you mean? I agree
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: with everything she's done? Okay, I was gonna say I
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: do as well. And I think she's just seeing through
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the craziness that is the show. Oh absolutely. She and
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I are so similar in the way that if she
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: sees BS, she needs to call it out like she
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: cannot help herself. You know. Yeah, I think she does
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: it a little bit more more than me, and but
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I yes, I think that is spot on. I think
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: when she sees something that she doesn't appreciate or when
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: she doesn't agree with, she has to speak up. And
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I think that's why we love her, and that's why,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: in my opinion, she is such a good person to
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: have on the show because she is relaying what a
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: lot of people feel that our contestans on the show,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: but a lot of people don't have the courage to
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: say anything. Oh yeah, and she's able to articulate her
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: feelings really well. She's a little aggressive for me, you think, so,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: she's a little tad. So this is the difference between
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: me and Bibbie is that I think we both have
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: that need to express how we feel and like the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: wrongness of a situation. But I do it like emotionally,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: in like a sensitive crying way, and she doesn't in
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: a really feisty way, a little bit of a chip
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: on her shoulder. Yeah, I feel like she's never been
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: rejected until last night. I don't know I got that,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Like really, Okay, let's move on from Bibby for a second. So,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: of course, Chris Harrison says, we have a surprise. There's
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: so many surprises this season. And then Kenny from Rachel
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: season comes on and he wrestles Ari, and we all
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: know that they had to of course manipulate the situation
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: to make it that Ari somehow be the professional wrestler here,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: um Ari just so out of his element? You guys,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: are you know what's funny? Though? He is this this
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: whole thing, he's being out of his element. He then, So,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I have had so many girls come up to me
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and say they love Ari. Yes, have you guys been
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: experiencing that? No, that's so weird. I haven't. Who like, what? Like?
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: What kind of a girl like Amy? Are you talking
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: like women who are a little older? Bens right on
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: point with that. They're all forty or older? Okay, yes,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: So my mom has one of our family friends over
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: to watch the episode every week, and she's she didn't
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: even watch Emily season, but she's like, oh, I love Ari.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Ari's my man, like all this weird stuff. And then
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: when I walked into Access Hollywood after the first episode,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Kid Hoover and Natalie Morales we're like, oh, we like Ari,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, what, Well, it must be because I
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: have no problem saying I'm forty three. So I think
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: it's because we've been watching Ben. Who's are you twenty eight? Now? Ben? Yeah,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: you're a lot younger than us. So I think the
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: older ladies that's funny, older than him. I got some
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: gray hair, a little baby's face bend. But I don't
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: understand Nikki is older than than Ari by a year.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: But let's do a poll. Let's have people email us
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: this week if they're older the older forty plus group
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: guys are still young. I really, you know forty is
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: very useful these days. Anyway, here's the other thing I want. Okay,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: so please email us with um if you're older and
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: you love Ari. But also I want to hear just
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: your thoughts on our general We haven't. I've gotten a
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: ton of emails on Hey, this is my feelings towards
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: this season of the Bachelor, so I want to hear that.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I want to read that because I'm just I mean,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: before I actually continues here and break down this episode,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I'm still a little confused because I feel very distant.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I'm not into it as much as I want. So
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: please email that's been an athlete. I heart media dot
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: com uh to just let us know what you think,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: so actually keep going. Okay, so I don't feel distant anymore.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: I like the past two episodes. Episodes two and three
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: really warm me up because the girls are really carrying
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: this show, and that's cool. I think it's always about
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: the women. But I don't think I'm ever going to
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: warm up to Ari in the sense that I'm going
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: to be super invested in rooting for him. I think
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: it's really I think it's interesting because a lot of
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: people I have heard from Ben are like, why are
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Ben and Ashley like poo pooing on Ari all the time?
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Like why don't they get it? And I'm like, hmm,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I just don't get it. So I
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: have hard feedback. Well, I mean, I don't want to
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: say pop I think he's hate that express No, I
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: mean for who he is. I mean for what he's doing.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I think he's doing a fine Jeff. I think the
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: women are obviously carring this show. I just think that
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: there is this level that I and I don't know
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: what it is. He isn't as comfortable, or he maybe
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: isn't as confident as we would expect about to be. Now,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't consider myself a very confident person, um, but
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: I think some of his conversations just feel like he
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: he's so distant, like he he isn't actually engaged in
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: the conversation. He's kind of just it feels like forcing
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: it to get through a Oh my gosh, man, I
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: cannot believe you said that, because I have my notes
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: here and this is what I wrote verbatim. He doesn't
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: seem super warmer, comforting. He seems to go to these
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: women and chat with them out of obligation. I find
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: if he's into you, he's into you that's true maybe,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: or a no you out out like I've never seen
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: a Bachelor show so so much disinterest in somebody. If
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: he's like sitting, well, we have a guest later that
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: we can talk to analysis here, and he's got eliminated.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: On last night's episode, she was She had some very
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: awkward moments. We won't sugarcoat that, but she'll definitely talk
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: about firsthand how already deals with girls that he's not
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: necessarily feeling. Did anybody else think that Lauren s was
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: out from the second she got out of that limo?
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: It was very the second she got out of the
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: limo limo from the show on her date. There was
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: something about even the first thirty seconds of that date
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: where there was there's a looming cloud where you just
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: knew that they that they were gonna not end up
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: together in this I don't know well before we jumped
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: so far forward actually continue to break down the episode.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Let's let's just give another couple of minutes here. Yeah, sorry.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Um So, first off, don't really understand how this boxing
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: or wrestling date works. It seems to be a theme
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: of this season, like last week the race car driving
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: day or wasn't like the demolition derby. I don't get it,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Like what was the point of that was? How did
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: you determine a winner? And I don't know how you
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: determine a winner here in this wrestling date? But anyway,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: who wins? Um does? Oh? Tia wins the Southern Bell.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: She was dressed as a Southern bell and she she
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: quite honestly is a Southern bell. She friends with them. Yes,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: So then Crystal continues to be annoying. Crystal is just
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: so annoying And I don't really know how to pinpoint
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: and describe it beyond just her voice. And it's it's
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: more like the fact that everything she says to Ari
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: looks like he's just said the most fascinating, earth shaking thing.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, he just said, hey, han, how's your
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: day going? And She's like, oh my god, And and
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: it's some amazing, and it's just I don't know, it's
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: very she's just very, very annoying. We'll again talk to
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: Annelie's about how Crystal is in real life, and then
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: we have the you know, the one on one with
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Lauren s where one of the ones are so awkward.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Ben talk about how one on ones can be awkward
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: at the beginning of a season, even if you do
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: have chemistry with somebody, because it's so silent and then
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: you have like fifteen eyeballs just watching your every word. Yeah,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's there is so at the
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: beginning of the season, you ask these women to go
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: on these special dates and and the one on ones
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: are meant to just really I mean, it is a
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: time one of the most important times of the show
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: because you can't really even know somebody. You have eight
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: hours to spend with somebody, which is all day long.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Not only do you do an activity, but you also
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: have at dinner. Um, they're really great, but if the
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: one on one isn't going well, which I did experience,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: then you have eight hours of really a lot of
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: awkwardness and there's really no ready to help, right, I mean,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: on television is really funny to watch. And so not
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: only do you have cameras and people standing around, you know,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: recording your date, but then also those same people aren't
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: really helping you out to make anything less awkward. So
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: just imagine being put in a room that you can't leave.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: You feel like you just get up and leave this
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: day that you can't leave for eight hours or something
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: that you're not that into. It's rough and this was
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: rough when Yeah, when you go on a regular date
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: in real life, you have sound around you, people talking
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: at a restaurant, you have music in the background. Just
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: imagine the most silent room you could you can and
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: then sit down with somebody that you've known for very
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: little time and just have a forced conversation about the
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: deepest stuff you know, not about like what's your favorite movie.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Then do you fully get to pick the one on
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: ones or did the producers sort of suggest or guide?
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: I'm not you know how much of that is up
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: to the bachelor. Yeah, yeah, definitely, I mean most all
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: of it, I guess. I mean there is like some
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: strategic and who you're choosing and when you're choosing him.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: So like, for example, uh, if I were to take
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: somebody on a one on one week one. I would
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: have to think in my head, now, this probably means
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: that I'm not gonna be able to take them on
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: another one on one date for another four weeks. Do
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: I really want to wait that long to see them
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: again on a one on setting? Or do I want
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: to maybe wait and take them on a one on
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: next week so I could take you know, because then
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: I know week five and we'll only have four people left,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: and at four people, I'm gonna see everybody every all
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: the time. Um, and the producers will help you with that.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's just kind of like thinking through how
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: does the show work? But for the most part, yeah,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: you get to pick and uh. And you also, you know,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I don't want to I want to all to remember
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: too and all the fans out there. Sometimes you bring
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: somebody on a one on one because you're pretty confident
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: they aren't the person for you, but you but you
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: aren't quite sure yet, but you know that at the
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: end of that date you do have the option to
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: send them a home, and so you're not just keep
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: asking people to go on one once because you are
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: so into them. Sometimes asking it because you want to
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: take goodbye to him earlier yeah, that's true. Um, I
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: had a lot of empathy on with Lauren on this
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: day because she's a nervous talker. So instead of, you know,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: being shy, she just kind of said anything that came
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: to her mind, which is what I do in those situations.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: I'm I go I'm just gonna keep rambling, and he
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: didn't make things anymore comfortable with for her. Again, this
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: is like, I feel like alays biggest flaw as a bachelor.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: He's seeing her nervous talking and yet he's kind of
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: like judging her for it. And then she goes, I'm
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: so nervous. I'm so nervous. Um, I just want to
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: be myself with you. And then instead of being like, okay,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: let's calm down, like what's it, what's a different way
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: where we can get you to calm down and be yourself,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: he goes, well, like, I'm really sorry that you don't
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: feel comfortable with me, so I think you should go home.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: But I guess that being set Yeah, really about that
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: being said, if you aren't comfortable with somebody and it
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: doesn't feel natural and you are nervous talking for so long,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: then you're probably just not meant to be that person
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: you don't have any natural chemistry maybe but but maybe
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, is an intimidating figure I would in person.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: So he's a bachelor, good looking, you know, these women
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: have been talking about them all the time. She gets
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: the one opportunity to be with him, and she just
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: might get nervous. I get that. That's totally understandable. She
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: might just need a couple of hours to watch up
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: or And I don't know if he did this or not,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: I cannot say, but I do know that one of
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: the most important roles at that and I've talked to
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Nick about this, is to settle down nerves and set
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: down emotions to help the person feel but to help
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: the person on the date with or on you know,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: a group date with, feel as comfortable and at ease
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: as possible. Because the truth is this, none of the
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: bachelors or the bach threat are any better than any
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: of the contestants. They're no different. They just have a title.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: And so I think one of the most important roles
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: as the lead on this show is to try to
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: find any way to make everybody comfortable. And when you
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: see somebody isn't comfortable, you need to approach that because
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: you are leading the show, and I do need to
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: say one more thing. I feel bad that I said
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: that about Lauren, because I'm the girl who on this
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: show has claimed so many times I just need to
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: have more time with him, because like, I just need
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: him to be able to see my real self, and
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I think it takes a while for me to come
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: on my shell with a guy that I like. So
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: I would love to Lauren, not love, that's the wrong word.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: But I'm so curious if she has total regrets because
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: she wasn't herself and she kept saying, I'm not myself,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not myself, I'm not myself, and then he breaks
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: up with her. All you can do is go. But
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: if I was myself, I wonder if he would have
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: liked me. Sometimes it's just that's how it goes. And
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: that's why I need a lot of time. I couldn't
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: have my future with somebody determined on one day. I
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: don't think if I, if I, that's not that's not
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: a good idea is to determine your future from one Actually,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: that's that's a good pool. That is true, right, It's
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: so funny. I feel like just this whole Bachelor process
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: hasn't made me feel like I need to make decision
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: making in my romantic life so quickly you're like, oh,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: you don't know something after like two dates. That's so
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: not normal. You should be saying I love you on
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: the third day. Does it ever warp your sense of
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: time with romance? Ben, I don't know, ash uh No,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think it's maybe slowed down
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: my sense of timing or romance. I think for me now,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: when I when I go on dates or when I'm
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: speaking to somebody, I want to take it a lot
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: slower because I've now sees the issues when you don't
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: really kind of work through some of the big questions
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: that you have in life. So for me, it's kind
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: of done the opposite where I've taken a big step
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: back and I said, let's slow everything down. Interesting. That's
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: so interesting because now I feel like, on a second day,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: I should be like, is this a guy that I
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: could marry? Because that's how we're wired to think. Oh
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: my gosh, it's nuts. These girls are all telling him
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: they have feelings for him, and all that I'm thinking
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: is like, I think you just met him, I know yesterday. Yeah,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: it's really the two of you over there in Los Angeles.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: I don't I want to say this because I love
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: you both, but I know that two of you you
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: don't get head over heels very quickly as well. So
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, actually, I have a feeling you did this
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: even before the show. Amy, you haven't even been on
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: the show, and you do that. Okay, I'm just marriage focused,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: you know. I've never understood dating for dating, even as
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: I do like to say, I know within the first
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: five minutes if it's happening or not, if there's like
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: natural chemistry and attraction, that attractions determined in five minutes,
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: not a cousin you're ripping on these bird feelings for
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: him in three, two or three weeks and you just
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: said out loud that you know in five minutes. But
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: I bury it down, Ben, I bury it down deep,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: and I don't tell the person. Oh my gosh. Amy
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: has has really realized today that she is broken in
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: many ways. She's just she's just having a day. I
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: came in today in tears and said to Ashley and
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Annelie's I'm so damaged, like we're all damaged. I mean, Ben,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: don't you think you're damaged? Oh? Yeah, Ben's definitely damaged.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: I can vouch for this one. Okay, March Like, people
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: damage us and then the next poor person hays the
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: price that's for the damage from the person before. Yeah,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: but it's all about growing and you are and that
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: person that you're with is too. I know it's true. Alright,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: let's go back to some fun stuff. Kenny Kenny, We
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: have Kenny King on the line right now. We want
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: to talk about the authenticity of him actually losing to
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Little Ari. Yeah. Hey, Kenny was from Rachel's season of
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: The Bachelrette. He also made a really great appearance on
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: this week's UH Bachelor's Kenny, Welcome to the Almost Famous podcast,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: Kenny Kenny kidding, Hey, why weren't you on The Bachelor
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Winner Games? I totally felt like you were fit for that.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: I definitely was supposed to be. But I had a
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: last pay per view of the year for the wresting
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: company that I worked for was in New York City
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: on UH, so that it was an unskippable thing for me,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: and I thought that that was gonna be okay, And
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: initially the talks were they that's gonna be fine. You
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: just fly from Vermont, New York and in the back,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: but it didn't work. So, hey, I was watching television,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: um last night Kenny or no last week? Sorry, and
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: I didn't realize that you are a professional like wrestler
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: like on WWE. Is this a new thing that this
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: happened after the show or have you always been on WW? No,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: I don't rest for w wrest for company? Was what
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: was it that I was watching? Then? Probably? Probably? Uh,
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: there was. I started on w W. I was trained
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: on Tough Enough. It was a show on MTV a
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: couple of years ago where it's basically like the Ultimate
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Fighters now where they trained They took eight men five
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: women and they trained become pro wrestler's basically like an
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: athlete challenge. That's how I started. That's under the w
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: AV brand. But what I was what I do currently is, uh,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: it's a company called Ring of On Orrecting. We're on
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: all the Sinclair broadcast networks. That makes sense. So obviously
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: you're using your skills for the shill last night. Actually,
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: I know you have a ton of questions for Kenny
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: about the authenticity. To take it away, Kenny, they made
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: you lose to Ri right, Uh, what I mean, what
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: do you think yes, yes, realness here on the Almost
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: fame as podcast. What do you think that? All right?
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: All right, well does already have they say they say,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: you don't you know, you don't go into a person's
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: home and uh and uh and beat them up. So
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: you know, I was a guest. I was a guest
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: on on the RI show, so you know I was.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: I was a gracious guest. That's funny, you were does
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: already have any natural skill? You know? Ari is uh,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: he's he's surprisingly big. Uh and we you know he
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: took to it pretty fast. Okay, so I will give
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: are uh some credit and that you know he was
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: he wasn't you know two left feed he has some
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: athletic ability. He uh, you know he was not completely
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: lost in there. So prop sorry, How did you feel
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: about that as a date? Did you find the girls
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: super sexy while they're wrestling? Did you feel like it
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: was kind of pointless and showing nothing about them as people? Uh? Well,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: I definitely like their costumes, but they were absolutely terrible wrestless.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: If if it was a date where I mean they
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: got you know, I was in the basterwere like, hey,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: you know, the best wrestler you have to you know,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: you have to give roses too, because they would have
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: all went home. They were pretty bad. But outstarted that,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: you know, it was it was good to see you know,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: the girls come out of the shows and and you know,
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: turn into something and and just kind of you know,
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: just just go with it and and go with the
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: flow and just kind of go out of their own
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: comfort zone. Frari. So uh, that's that's I think that
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: maybe would be the biggest takeaway from it. Those women
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: wrestlers from the eighties, they were really scary and mean.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Is that the norm? That's the norm and your profession,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: isn't it? Well, that's when you're when you're as they
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: call it in my professional green woman. Uh, you you
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: know that that's kind of how it's supposed to be. Uh.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: They want to weed out the people that aren't you know,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: they want to do it on the weekends and the
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: people that aren't uh you know, aren't really into it.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: So you know, not so much now. The business to
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: change now, But even when I was getting into it,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: and definitely I'm sure and those ladies that into it,
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: your training is the beature has pretty bad and no jokes,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: were those ladies legit oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: Those are legit uh glow ladies from the eighties, and
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: uh you know we were kind of in the back
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: and they were looking at me like, well, what do
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: you think we should do with these girls? We don't
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: have the time to train them. And I was like,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: let's let's just keep it simple, you know, because even
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: it's even it's fun and and and they tried to
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: kind of make it lighthearted. Pro wrestling is very very
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: dangerous still, so uh, you know, you wanted to do
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: make these girls do stuff and learn things that you know,
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: even if they do it terribly, that nobody gets hurt.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: They were better wrestlers than with those dogs disaster. Another
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: date where I didn't really know the point. Hey Kenny,
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: did you get it? Get a chance to chat with Ari? Yeah? Yeah,
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Ari and I chat uh for for a little bit.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: I had to kind of teach him a little bit
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: of things. So you know, I was a really cool guy.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Uh you know that everybody was. I know, everybody was
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: all upset about its not being Peter, but are's cool?
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: Are there for? You know? Or as as as the
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: Rose boys say, he's there for the right reasons? Uh? So,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: uh you know it was. It was really cool to
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: get a chance like this, just talk to him and
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: get to talk to him man and man instead of
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: this kind of you know that we threw all the
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: whatever it is. I mean, I want to clear up
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: to um explained to me because I really don't know.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: And I grew up watching wrestling. Now, even though you
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: can say, you know, Ari beat you during the show,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: it wouldn't be clearly abnormal in wrestling, because it's it's
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: an entertainment sport for that to happen on television as well, right,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: that that whole thing kind of plays out or is
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: it up at the skill level of the individual wrestler
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: who wins. Well, well, it's it's that is the way
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: that it happened would be the way that you would
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: see it on television. Uh. You know, you've got a
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: guy who's obviously way more experienced than the other guy,
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: and uh, you know, as it as it as it was,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm basically taking advantage of him and kind
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: of overlooking him. And when I got streckted by the girls,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: you know, he got one up on me. That is
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: a very viable I mean that hell, that happens in
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: real life. You know, he checked by the girl and
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: then boom before you know what you lose. So that's
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: the kind of uh you know that I try to
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: make it as plausible as possible where it's not like
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Ari would be, you know, beating me, because that's not
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: really what would happen, you realize. Did you have a
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: favorite of those girls, Kenny? Yeah, I didn't know their
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: names up until obviously, uh the show came out, but
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: I liked, uh the kitty Cat was Becca, I think,
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: and Mickel were my two favorites. Pretty girl. That was
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: just purely uh using my eyes. All right, pretty, Before
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: we let you go here, I want to hear and
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: please feel free to talk about anything. Um. Our listeners
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: are huge, obviously Bachelor fans, and they like to keep
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: the follow up with any of the past contestants. So
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: can you give our listeners a quick rundown of what
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: your life is like today, any exciting things going on?
• 25:48

  Speaker 1: for some reason, you know, totally fine. Everything happens for
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: a reason, you know. Um yeah, bumper car trauma. It's
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: a thing. I've actually gotten a ton of support around it,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: so I'm like super pumped that. Like a lot of
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: people have reached out to me and are like surviving
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: seriously seriously my Yeah, the football coach at my high
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: school was like, my niece was seriously injured in a
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: bumper car accident as permanent brain damage. Like it's a thing.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: I've had multiple people reach out to me and they're like,
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I feel you. I'm in the same
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: boat exactly. So that's making these hilarious tweets from people
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: magazine that I want to read less fun but I
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: think I can fight through that. Still a lot less
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: funny now. But I know if you read in my
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: Cosmo recap last week, I talked about how I'm not
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: necessarily traumatized up opper cars, but I never understood the
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: appeal of them same like why do you want to
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: just ram into people? And I think from me, like
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: so people didn't really understand what was going on that day,
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: and like a big part of it for me was
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: actually like a bullying aspect. I was at a birthday
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: party and I had these girls that were like really
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: bullying me that day, kind of like that whole year.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: I was like in a new school and I felt
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: very like attacked, And so I think that was where
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: like the trauma came from, you know, that like deep
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: feeling of like girls just picking on you. So did
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: they try to ram into you with their bumper cars?
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't really remember the details because I
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: was probably like seven years old, so it's just one
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: of those things. As soon as I got there, I
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: was like, oh my gosh, that feeling of just like
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: people picking on you and making fun of you was
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: all coming back. And then I think it was just
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: like being in the house with all those girls and
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: stuff too. It was like bringing up so many definitely
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: want to dig into this, but I'd love to read
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: the actor. So Ben Flannic, We'll start with him, Bachelor
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Ben Planic. So this was People Magazine posted all these
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: tweets last week when this episode aired. From Ben, Just
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: when I thought I was out, the dramatic bumper car
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: edit pulled me back in. This is This is from
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: some guy named Taylor. That bumper car flashback on The
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Bachelor deserves an Emmy. Stellar work everyone, and that wasn't
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: really year footed rights. This from Kate And look, we'll
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: dig into the actual trauma of it, but I mean,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: this is kind of funny. I just had a really
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: bad bumper card trauma. Everyone kept bumping into my car.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: Who was the one girl that was so bitchy but
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: so funny? That was like, Oh, that girl's got bumper
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: card drama. I'm gonna ram my car right into her.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: That you watching the one girl that was going to
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: bump right into you. I didn't see that clip. Did
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: I miss it? Yeah? Maybe it was on a preview
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: or something. Do you get an edited? Maybe I don't
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: remember that. Did I get a special version? I can't
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: work tomorrow. I've had a relapse of my bumper card trauma.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: People are funny, but I am sorry that you had
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: actual trauma. Yeah, oh no. I mean the thing is
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: is it's not like it's not messing with my life now,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: you know. And my biggest question was, first the bumper
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: car thing was funny, but then the next week you're
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: afraid of dogs. And at that point, were you like, oh,
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: I'll just hand this up and it'll be kind of funny.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: This will be my ongoing theme is like being scared
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: of every grouped it. Honestly, I did not think they
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: would air any of that stuff about the dog, like
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: my dog trauma, just because because then it was so
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: not relevant to like what the date actually was. So um.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: But I was like freaking out. I'm like, oh my gosh,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: they are just trying to beat me up right now,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: like first the derby and now they're going to have
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: like attack dogs coming, you know, viciously at there are
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: attack dogs, I thought, so my initial thought was I
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: thought they were going to have us like in jumpsuits
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: and have dogs like attacking us and like training dogs
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: to do. So I was like, oh crap, this is
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: not going to be another fun day for me. But
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: you know, I have actually, like quite a few scars
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: on my face from my dog attack when I was
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: a kid. I almost lost my eye when I was
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: like every time, I'm sorry, I'm bringing it background. It's like,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: not exactly, They're real things. So, um, So, are you
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: scared of rural dogs now? No? I actually, I mean
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: I love dogs. I'm in the process of trying to
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: adopt a dog now, so I'm like, I love dogs,
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: but there's definitely like there are dogs that have been
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: abused or been you know, shifty a little bit, and
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: you can tell their energy is just like a little off,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: and those kind of dogs I get really like knots
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: in my stomach immediately that you got the pooper scooper job.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I think that was they just were
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: trying to give me the you know what um jobs.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: So right, well, I just feel like I was I
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: was sad for you because I thought maybe you were
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: scared of all dogs and of dogs. No. Actually, so
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: I'm an event planner and I have a client and
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: I throw all of her dog birthday parties. So um,
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: I spent a lot of time with dogs. Good, good, good.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: I'm glad it didn't ruin dogs for you. Now we
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: have to talk about how awkward. Okay, you're you had
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: two awkward moments, two very prominent awkward moments. One on
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: the group date. Tell us about your feelings with Ari
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: when you try to talk to him on the group
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: date and you're just like, this is just not happening
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: for us, is it? Yeah? So I went in and uh,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: first of all, it was like a little bit hard
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: to get time with him at all that night, and
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: so when I finally got some time, I was like,
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: all right, I gotta make the most of it. And
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: then it just felt like pulling teeth, like he and
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: I just the conversation was never there. I always felt
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: like I'd ask him something and then it was like
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: a one word back and I'm like, all right, you
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: want to elaborate or like ask me something now, Like
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: it was just not a two way street. I felt
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: like his body language was like totally turned away from me,
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: which was like very hard to kind of get him
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: to warm up to me. So um, so yeah, so
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: I was like this is, yeah, this is not happening.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: So did you feel like that was the way he
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: treated all the girls he wasn't really ribing with No, definitely,
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: not like what you guys were saying earlier. I feel
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: like the girls that he liked it was so clear,
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: and the girls that he was a maybe or didn't like,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: it was just it was so clear, you know. And
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: I felt like I was one of the girls that
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he had definitely made his mind
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: up about me, but I felt like he wasn't taking
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: the time to get to know if he if there
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: was anything even there so interesting. He was really trying
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: to make an uncomfortable environment even more awkward. Yeah, it
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: was just never. It was always it was always just
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: work with him and um and it was never like
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: carefree or fun. And I would have loved if we
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: got to the point where we are just like making out,
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: because I feel like that was like his fallback with
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: a lot of girls. Yeah, sometimes I'm watching the show
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, I think he's just kissing girls because
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: he doesn't really know what to say anymore, and he
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: knows that that's his skill. So maybe intimate conversation, playful conversation.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: He's not very playful or flurry, but maybe he feels
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: like kissing is his strength, so he goes right for that.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: And like him, I definitely like in the beginning, I'm like, Okay,
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: you know what, I'm here for this guy. He seems
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: like a great guy. I'm going to give him a shot.
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: But then as it was going, I mean, I have
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: no interest in him. Now, let's put it that way.
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: I don't watch it back and say, oh my gosh,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: I have so many regrets it. Uh that night, I
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: was done. I was like, I had nothing, no interest
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: in him. All right, let's talk about the kiss. And
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: that was probably the most demoralizing moment I've ever seen
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: on TV. I mean, he said, I don't think we're
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: there yet. Yeah, as you basically said, can I kiss you? Right?
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: So tell us about your feelings. So yeah, I mean,
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: definitely not a fun moment. But I knew that I
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: didn't want to be if he was just going to
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: like keep me around to be like in the background
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: for a couple more weeks, you know, I'm like, I
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: don't need that, and um, and also it was just
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: it was hard being with all these girls who were like,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: oh my god, I just made out with him or
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: you know whatever, and I'm like, okay, really like throw
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: me your bone, dude, and dog day um exactly, and
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, really, guys, let's rub it in a
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: little bit more. And so you know, like at the
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: end of the day, um oh. And that was the
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: other thing. So the girls kept saying like, well, he
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: was never the one to make the first move. I
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: always had to be the one to make the first move.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: But I don't want to, Like, you know, sometimes you
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: see those bachelor moments where you they the girl like
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: lunges themselves at the guy. I think I had a
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: moment or two like that, and then they reject it though,
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: or it's just a really awkward moment, and I'm like,
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: I don't want to be that girl. So I'd rather
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: like put it out there and if he doesn't, then
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: he doesn't. Ben, did you make the first move or
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: did the girls make the move on you? I think
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: I always make them first move. I think it would
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: be weird if I would expect the girls to to
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: make the first move. I'm the one. Um. I think,
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: especially in the beginning is like I said earlier, your
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: job is to make everybody feel comfortable. I think, and
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: to make everybody feel like this is at some level
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: a normal deal. And as a result, like part of
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: that comfortability for me to you know, tell the girls, hey,
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: I really care about you, was to kiss them, to
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: make the first move, to put myself out there, and
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: for myself to take the rest, not make the women
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: take the rest. Right right, I'm thinking Ari's like, oh,
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm the kissing bandit, I'm so talented this,
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: you have to come get it. So he kissed all
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: eighteen girls minus you. That's a lot, I think. So,
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: I think that's a lot. Then a lot. But the
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: thing is, there were like two kisses that really they
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: weren't They weren't like kisses kisses. It was kind of
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: like a dare or right or you know, something like that.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: So I felt I felt less about hibout that when
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: I found out a theater. But right, like the Babby's
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: kiss make air, No, I don't think so, because well,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: and like Ben, like you were saying, I mean, I
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: think personally for me, I think that's a big part
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: of it. Like I like the man to kind of
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: take control and like guide those situations too, and make
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: me feel like they really want me to be there.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: And are attracted to me, and so I didn't want
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: to be the one just like throwing myself at some dude.
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: He's a little weird. Some of the girls are like
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: climbing on top of him. That's making me feel weird
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: every time I watch it. Okay, wait, and I also
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: need to talk about how everybody was like, oh my god,
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: he's the best kisser ever, best kisser're ever? Right, And
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: on Emily season, I was like, Wow, he's a really
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: romantic kisser. And I like, even when Al was announced,
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: to remember how I described how perfectly he kisses. Now
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: I don't feel the same way because it's like an act.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: I feel like he's doing it with girls he's barely
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: talking to, barely knows, And now all the romance of
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: what I thought Ari's kiss was like is out the window,
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: and I just I just don't feel And what I
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: don't want to kis him anymore. I want to know
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: what girls Analyze became f with and what girls? Uh
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: does she think he likes the best? But wait, An,
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: do you feel the same way about his kissing? Well,
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: I was just going to say that I am so
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: glad that I didn't kiss him on the show because
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: watching him kiss those girls on the show, like, yes,
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: you can see he's a sensual kisser, but like it
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: grosses me out how much he's like so over every girl. Um, okay,
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: so my favorites is that? Okay? So well, I think
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: the girls who were going to make it to the
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: top would be uh Caroline, Chelsea, uh long haired Becca
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: and yeah, I think those are sort of my top Caroline.
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: She hasn't really made much of a debut yet. She
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: on the dog date was the one who kissed him
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: uh at the during our performance. But okay, maybe maybe
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: they didn't show it. I just have I have it, like,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: you know, screened in my head forever. Um. But yeah.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: And then my favorites from the show were Kendall, Cien,
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Bibiana of course love her, um and there's no one
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: like Crystal. Let's just put it out here. Yeah. I
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: feel so bad because I didn't know her story. So
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: after the fact, after watching it back and finding out
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: about her family life, you know, you kind of feel like,
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: oh god, it's coming from a place. But she's not
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: a very nice person. Like I'll just say, she's not
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: a nice person. So it's hard having a conversation with her,
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: She definitely was constantly digging, trying to make you feel
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: uncomfortable or like if she wasn't talking to you, Um,
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: it was because she was trying to be like omissive
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: and leave things out so that you weren't going I said,
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: bachelor villain rule number one, if you're trying to be
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: a bachelor villain, don't tell the other girls what's happening
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: on your dates. Right, be secretive from Ben, because I
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: know Ben, you and Nick kind of touched on this,
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: and I really want to get your vibe on that
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: whispery baby talkie, the thing she's doing phone sex operator. Yeah,
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: is that hot or what? Actually? Can you recreate it
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: for Ben? You know what it sounds like. I mean,
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: I think it's probably attractive for some guys. Um, she's
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: trying hard. And I think that's the part sometimes in
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: the and when we watch the show, it comes off
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: as me and and she comes off as distance, and
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: she comes off as a little minipua miniplutive. But then
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: we hear a story like this is coming from a
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: place that isn't good. And I think even like that
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: little like you know qc TC voice, she's you know,
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: throwing off at him is coming from a place that
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: is probably a little bit of insecurity because she feels
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: like she has to do something to him impress him.
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: And that briefly good question, dun at last, I want
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: to know when you have left this show this week,
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: what was the vibe in the house towards our for
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: the girls head of reveal for him? I mean, we
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: know Crystal is Um, she's really excited about the idea
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: of art. Is that a common sentiment for the house
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: or when you left that it seemed like they're things
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: are little shaky. I think there was definitely some like
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: clear people who felt comfortable, but there were also like
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: I remember having a conversation with Um, with Kendall and
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: CN and UH and they both were like, I mean,
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: I don't even know at this point, you know, like
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: I still really need to learn so much about him
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: to figure out if I like him and if this
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: is going to go somewhere. And I think it was
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: still so early, so we were all just trying to
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: figure out if it's if it could be something, and
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: I mean I found out that it couldn't. So when
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: hor and S didn't come back, were people like so
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: I think I was the only one that was really
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: upfront that day, uh that I thought there was no
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: way she was coming back. And I loved her, but
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: I could see it there was just really no chemistry
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: and m and she did say some things in the
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: house too about how she typically gets put in the
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: friend zone with guys, and I could just see how
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: that was going to probably happen all over again and
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: I should talk to her. Oh my gosh, can we
• 43:57

• 51:20
  Speaker 1: move on. This is from Mana Vica. Hi, Ban Ashley.
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: I am talking to you guys from India, and I'm
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: fairly new to the Bachelor world as I've only seen
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: the last three seasons of b I p and Ben
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: jojo in Rachel's season and now I'm watching Aris. My
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: question is, what are your next Bachelorette predictions? Anyone from
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: our season or wild card like Christina from next season?
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: Well the podcast and your friendship love Manneca Vica, all right,
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: I'm still going with Christina for some reason right now,
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: because I think Becca short Hairbecca is a good candidate,
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: but way too young and nobody would be on board
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: for the twenty two year old bachelor. I would have, Yeah,
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: I would have to agree. I think Tia from this
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: season yes the best chance. I think. I just think
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: he is compelling. I know, obviously have I said it
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: last week. She's one of my top choices on our
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: season right now. She's beautiful, she's funny. I think she
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: should would be a great candidate to be the Bachelor.
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: I would not be surprised if you see Tia. I agree, Ben,
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: I know it's a little early on. I think we
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: should answer this question in three weeks. We will, Yeah,
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: I'm sure we will. But Tia is also the one
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: girl from our season that is giving me bachelorette vibes.
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: I wish I would enjoy Becca if she wasn't so young.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Becca could be a great bach in a
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: couple of years. Perfect. Maybe she'll come back all of Emily.
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, who knows it would be the Bachelor now? Damn, girl,
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: you look great. You would not that like as if
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: thirty three like Jerry. Yeah, okay, all right, well Ben,
• 53:06
