  Speaker 1: part of the line that gracing family. Ari. Um, from
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: what I know about him, you know he's a race

  Speaker 1: car driver or he's an indy car driver himself. Um.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: He obviously has not found love since the show, which

• 3:22
  Speaker 1: was supposed to be or he was the bachelor. Was

  Speaker 1: down to the choice of bachelor was down to Crystals
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: and Ari. Back when I was about to go on
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: the show, and they made the decision that was Crystals.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: And I even told casting I go if it's Ari,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: I probably won't do it, but I'll do it for Chris.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: And that's not as I think it's Ari. I just
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: felt like I felt really detached from him, like I
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: never had an emotional connection to him. He seems like
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: a nice guy. I was always just so team Jeff
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: home that I couldn't that I didn't even see Ari.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: What a bad judge of care I know, right, this
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: is I know for real? So they cast all the
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: women before they cast a bachelor. I think they have
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: it down to at least roughly fifty. I think they
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: have it down to at least fifty at this point.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Have either of you met him. I've met him many
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: many times. Oh really, I'm trying to remember because it's
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: so blurry. What year was that? Um, it was two thousand,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: it was the summer of two thousands. I mean I've
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: hung out with him quite a bit, like a lot.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I like him a lot, a lot like I've had
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: lunches and dinners and all sorts of hanging out with him.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: He's a really good guy. Oh good. Yeah, I have
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: nothing but nice things to say about him. I just
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: have not seen him in years. There's a summer of
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: twelve that was the summer of you guys, No wonder,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: I don't remember. It was five years ago. I can't
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: be expected to remember five years ago. And I actually
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: have a couple of girlfriends who date in him post
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: post Emily Maynard. Yes, and one I think he hung
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: out with within the last couple of months, you know,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: more than we did. Yeah. No, I like him a lot.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: I've never known how to say his last name though.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: How do you say that Liondyite. Liondite is so random,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Rove random. Well, let's break it down. So Flice's tweets
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: were right like, I am shocked, are you? Yep? I
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: am shocked. It wasn't from Jojo season it um probably
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: somebody who actually is in it for love and not
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: same right now because he's already had that taste. And well,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: let's be honest, this is this is the greatest thing
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: that's ever happened to this guy. Oh yeah, well, I
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: mean he does come from a lion Dyke family. Like
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: that's not like like discount his family. They're very successful, wealthy,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: good looking family. So ari, if he wanted fame, he
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: has a name to back it, you know, I want
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: to know. I guess the question then would be, we
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: gotta get something in the line. Why wasn't already chosen
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: last time above Sean Low? No, Sean Low was Shan Low.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: He beat an outs of this title Swan who was
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Sean Low who was the bachelor after Himily made Yeah,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: and then Chris he was the ultimate selection up against him.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: So this is it's finally his time. He kept his
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: name in the bucket. He's kind of like, oh it
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: is it's just like Nick. They obviously think he's very
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: bad flare worthy. Well, there you go. Final thoughts before
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: we say goodbye. Actually, what do you think? What? I
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: think this is awesome because it's kind of it kind
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: of gets us out of the circle that we're already
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: in because people don't like what the way the cat
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: has been Necessarily they don't feel attached to the cast
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: from the past two seasons. So maybe like bring like
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: a vintage choice to it and we can start fresh again.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: That's right, Hey, I think you're right. You know, if
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Ari was doing this for fame, he's already got it. Uh.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: He for whatever reason, he's been single for a while. Now,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: he's good looking, he's successful. Um, the ladies are going
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: to be shocked. Uh. And I'm excited to watch Ari
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: as the next batch. I think he's excited to see
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: what he looks like these days. Yeah, hopefully killed decent.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: And also, um, just look at his Instagram. He has
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: five hundred, not k just five hundred followers. No, no,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: are you looking at the right guy? I think so.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Because Instagram didn't start until about seven months after Emily season,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I did not get it Instagram until seven months after
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: EMLA season well he uh that could have changed very quickly.
