• 0:47
  Speaker 4: qualify for playing in that celebrity tournament?
• 0:49
  Speaker 6: Absolutely not. Do you have to qualify as I have
• 0:52
  Speaker 6: no idea why. You probably have to be able to
• 0:54
  Speaker 6: hit it on the fairway, and that's an issue for me.
• 0:56
  Speaker 5: You are you are?
• 0:57
  Speaker 6: I'm not decent? Yeah, But Ashley, I what I do?
• 1:01
  Speaker 6: I'll say this, I hit the ball well, I hit
• 1:04
  Speaker 6: it solid. I mean if I hit a drive, I
• 1:06
  Speaker 6: can hit it to eighty three hundred, but.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: Already bored, Like it's.
• 1:11
  Speaker 6: Going left and right real quick, and there are there's
• 1:14
  Speaker 6: there's no crowds where I play, and there are crowds there,
• 1:17
  Speaker 6: and I'd be very nervous for them.
• 1:19
  Speaker 7: Well, I have to say that if there's one thing
• 1:23
  Speaker 7: that I don't pay attention to when Bennick talks, it
• 1:26
  Speaker 7: would be golf. And we're like, let's hurry it up,
• 1:28
  Speaker 7: because I feel like most of the audience feels the same.
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: But we are so happy that he is happy out
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: on the golf.
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: Course where Florida they have like hit the twenty degrees
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: twenty degrees in Florida.
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: Hit the twenty degree mark over night in Florida the
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: other day.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's so rare.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm sure it wasn't like even if it
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: was like forty something during the.
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: Day, Like that's a big difference.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: Then Jared and I are like seriously contemplating Florida as
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: a place to live. All right, We're all over the
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: place already, do you know why?
• 1:57
  Speaker 6: Do you know why we're contemplating it, Because anybody in
• 2:00
  Speaker 6: the Northeast right now is also contemplating it because it's
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: for what feels like the seventeenth straight day. It's in
• 2:09
  Speaker 6: single digits and freezing because this snow is going nowhere anyway.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know who's listening to this in Northeast.
• 2:15
  Speaker 6: But if you're there, everybody's contemplating living in Florida at
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: this point.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: Moving forward, here we go.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: Well, I have lots to say about that, but we
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: won't get there, all right. Headline number one this week,
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: Kelsey Anderson. This is fun because Jared knows nothing going
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: on in Bachelor Nation. Okay, he doesn't follow. You should
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: see this man scrolling through his Instagram feed. It's as
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: if he scrolls with absolutely not paying attention to anything
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: where I'm like, sir, what are you searching for? I
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: do a lot of searching for patriots in Scream Sep.
• 2:48
  Speaker 7: Seven.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: You don't know what number scream is coming out?
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: Oh babe, I do know I did in Steid of seven.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: AnyWho.
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I do a lot of respect follows on Instagram,
• 2:57
  Speaker 6: of course, Like if somebody's following me, I'll follow them
• 2:59
  Speaker 6: and and I will, you know, try to double tap
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: to like or view something. But you know, I mean
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: a lot of times as with people watching my content,
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: probably ninety percent of the time they don't care.
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: Moving forward, Okay, moving forward, let's talk about Kelsey and Joey.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: So Kelsey shares the role that she would like Joey's
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: Dancing with the Stars cast mates to have in their wedding. Basically,
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: she just wants them to teach her how to dance
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: before she gets there and does their first dance. She
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: says that he has been trying to teach her little things,
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: like when they're cleaning the house, they'll have a little
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: dance breaks that's so adorable and so young of them,
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: and then he'll try to teach me and I'm like, wait, no,
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: it's not that wait what is this?
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: And that sounds like me dancing?
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, So they're hoping to, you know, get her to
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: be a better dancer before the wedding. And another thing
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: that they that she mentioned about their wedding is that
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: they're going to have a band and a DJ, which
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: Jared and I are very much fans of. That is
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: the way to go if you can manage it, don't
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: you agree, big Yeah?
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: Of course the band was great for the first portion
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: and then when it really started turning into what we
• 4:16
  Speaker 6: wanted was a party.
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: Well, we didn't want a romantic experience, but of course.
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: The last DJ was definitely the most party vibes there were,
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: which is why we went with a band early.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: On, because we wanted that experience.
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: But then we also wanted, you know, our songs to play,
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: and the band, the band, we.
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: Knew the songs and the way that we knew the
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: songs was going to cover.
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: Like we're playing New Kids on the Block. We want
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: to hear Donnie if we hear Backstreet Boys or so on.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: So we imagine a band covering New Kids on the
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: Block like block party.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: That'd be awesome, would it be? Why not?
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: I like the DJ version of that better.
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: Well anyway, I was going to say that with the DJ,
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: make sure that you have them play the songs that
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: you want them to play, Like give them, Liz, because
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: you do not want wedding standards. That nothing will bring
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: your your wedding down more than uptown.
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: Funk you up.
• 5:10
  Speaker 6: I always think of the same thing, like if the
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: first song is Uptown, if I hear that boom, I'm.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Like, dude, I'm out, I'm out.
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: I love and respect all of you guys and it's
• 5:19
  Speaker 6: nothing personal, and but it's just you know, we got
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: two kids at home.
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: Kids, we're out, Like if.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: We hear ups out, we're like, this is our time
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: to go. It was a great song when it came out,
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: but then it got to be the most overplayed song
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: of all time. And it's not just that song. What's
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: another one? Like I don't what's another one? But you
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: love playing mister Brightside for your wedding guests at adult
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: of course that's not that's different.
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: Actually, it is by far the most popular song at
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: every after party we play.
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: Except for when you also placed Clean Dion.
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: Even more popular because the It's all coming back now
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: is awesome, but there are only the song is so long, Yeah,
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: certain segments that people get really hyped for the nights
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: of this pleasure like that is the best. But mister
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: Brightside the entire song from beginning to end. Everybody knows
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: every word.
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: So basically, if you guys didn't know, Jared is kind
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: of a wedding DJ because he does the wedding after
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: parties at Audrey's.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: I made a playlist, He made.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: A playlist, but he knows exactly what turns the crowd
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: up anyway, moving on to definitely something that we should
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: be talking about together. Our friend Sidney Gordon reveals that
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: she is engaged to Nathan who. I mean, Wow, they've
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: been together for it's not even seven months. We haven't
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: met him. She was like you, she was like, oh.
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: My god, you guys need to know. He's like you guys,
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: are can get along with him?
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: So well, he's from South Africa and we're really really
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: happy for her. I haven't seen her in months, since
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: before she started dating this guy, and my makeup artist
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: she has seen her and she said that like she's
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: never seen someone like so oohy and I in love.
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: Uh yeah, I mean I'm happy for her.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: I'm very happy.
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but you know, we
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: haven't spoken to Sydney in a long time.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: I personally haven't, not.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: For not for any reason of like just because like
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: she's honestly been like in South Africa this.
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: Year, in South Africa now, which is I hope she's happy.
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: She seems I can never go to her.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: Store in Newport because I have two kids now, so
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: it's like do I want to pay a babysitter to
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: go shop? No?
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: I mean I have no doubt that she's happy, and
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: I hope things are going well with her and the
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: boyfriend the fiance.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Holy moly, But Sidney's a friend.
• 7:53
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: Sidney used to help out with social media at Audrey's
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: and she used to help out a ton with our
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: social media. And she's always been a good friend, and
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: I really have always enjoyed our time with her, and
• 8:05
  Speaker 6: so I wish her nothing but the best. I wish
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: I had more to say about that, but it's just
• 8:09
  Speaker 6: like it's like she's a whole It's like a whole
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: different life.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: It really is like I don't even feel like we
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: know Sydney anymore.
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: Well, not in a bad way, but just like, you know,
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: I see on social media, I'm like, Oh, she's she's
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: dating guy for South Africa. She's moving to South Africa.
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: She's opening a folk vintage store in South Africa.
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: How did I not see this?
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: I think right to her is.
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: When are you back in America? And she didn't respond yet.
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: So anyway, she just talked about the ring, and she
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: said they've obviously talked about engagement beforehand, and she wanted
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: the ring to be perfect, so they went shopping for rings.
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: Oh, she was like, very very aware that they were
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: going to get engaged.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: And she also knew that he'd asked her parents for
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: her hand in marriage. She knew it was coming, just
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: didn't know when. And then Nathan said that they were
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: supposed to go on a little getaway weekend, but there
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: was a delay. The ring was supposed to arrive, and
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: then the ring got delayed, so they postponed the whole weekend,
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: and then it was supposed to come the Monday of
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: the next week. So we planned on going the following weekend,
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: and then two or three days before the supposed time
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: it was supposed to come, a friend phones and says, Nathan, listen,
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: we've got a problem. My guy's flown in with the
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: wrong ring. This is a yellow diamond ring and it's
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: completely different. Yours is still overseas. So quickly he found
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: a backup ring to propose with that was very similar
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: to Sidney's ring, but not actually the ring itself, and
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: he did propose with the similar looking.
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: Ring, and he's like, this isn't your ring?
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: If this isn't it, And the funny part is she
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: said that like all the pictures that she's posted, it's
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: not even the actual ring, but she said she can
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: barely tell the difference. So anyway, again, we are happy
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: for them.
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: That's a that's a funny story.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Do we care too much about rings?
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: I'm I mean, I think that once you're married, you
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: don't care about the ring as much.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: I think just as you get older. I'm such a grump.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: You are a grump. You are one thousand percent of grump.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: But I do think that we care about rings until
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: we've been married, and then we're like, oh, it's not
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: that big of a deal.
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: Well, the only reason I say that is because, of
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: course rings are important where the ring symbolizes.
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, ring is important, but like the like the grander
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: of the ring.
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think we talk so much about exactly how
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: big a ring is or how many carrots it is.
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: And I'm like, damn man, that as I get older
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: and it's like, you know, we got real bills to pay,
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: it's like you should probably just sell that, make some
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: money and we'll still wear a ring.
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: But you know, I know it's not yours. I'm not
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: gonna lie. I can't imagine we'd get much money for yours.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: You think it's what do you think it's a bachelor ring.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: No, I know, but doesn't resale for rings not do Yeah,
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: it doesn't.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: Do well for for yeah. No, it doesn't matter like
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: how much they are, they always go down.
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: It's like a car.
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: I was just gonna say, I feel I view it
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: as a car. I would never tell anybody buy brand
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: new car. I'd say, by buy you.
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: A brand new car. Ours is the Yukon was new.
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: I know, but now if we were looking back on
• 11:07
  Speaker 6: it'd be like, you know that the truck now I
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: know that, like not fifteen thousand miles, but it went
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: down so much in value just because it.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: Wasn't brand new. I know, you're not the first person driving.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: So with the ring, it's.
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: Like like if you buy a super expensive ring, you're
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: definitely not getting your money back if you ever need
• 11:23
  Speaker 6: to sell it.
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I want a good investment.
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: About On Housewives, like how all the women are like
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: obsessed with having like the hugest statement rings me and
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: I'm like here with my like it's absolutely not humble
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: at all, beautiful comparison to theirs, And I'm like I
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: would just because of the sentimentality value of it and
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: even just the fact that it's sat on my hand
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: now for seven years that like it's part of me
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: and I have I don't want to. I don't want
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: anything besides it, because I even have that other lab
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: grown diamond that we got through the partnership, which is sedunning.
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: But every time it's on my hand, it just doesn't
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: feel as right. And it's fun to go back and
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: forth sometimes, but like this belongs on my finger. Well,
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: this is such a weird rollover. Vanessa Grimaldi created a
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: touching memento to honor her two pregnancy losses. Did Yeah,
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: since since having the baby Winston.
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah so, and it's just Winston, right.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: That's tough.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: So she did a video where she unboxed this pinky
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: promise or that she made to honor the two miscarriages.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: She decided, let's say sweet to pick the birth stones
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: that represent the months that she found out about each pregnancy.
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: A garnet for January twenty twenty four and a diamond
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: for April twenty twenty five. A pinky promise to keep
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: my two babies close everyday day, she said, A pinky
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: promise means forever. For the longest time, I wasn't sure
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: how to honor these two losses.
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: And I wanted.
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: Something I could wear every day and something that carried
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: a meaning for me. It was never about remembering the loss,
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: but remembering that I carried them, that they were and
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: will always be a part of me, Honoring that day
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: I found out that I was pregnant, Like it was
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: the most natural way to do it. Well, now, it's
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: so funny that we were talking about the meaning of
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: rings and then this one is absolutely incredibly meaningful.
• 13:28
  Speaker 8: Yeah, of course, So yeah, I mean as a parent
• 13:32
  Speaker 8: of two, you know, I mean, it's just that's hard.
• 13:37
  Speaker 8: That's really hard if you want to keep trying, and
• 13:41
  Speaker 8: you know, we know we have friends that have had
• 13:43
  Speaker 8: similar situations, and it's just there's really no words to
• 13:49
  Speaker 8: put into perspective.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: It's hard.
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: No, I'm so sorry.
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, like I know that it's happened, and it
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: was like but you know, there's hearts going out to
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: Vanessa and her husband. So wow, we're just like really
• 14:08

  Speaker 6: Yeah, they're both they both are married hockey players. Alrighty, well, congratulations. Also,
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: I wanted to say something about the Vanessa thing because
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: I was thinking about lots of you know, children. I
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: was thinking about how that's why I want to be
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: religious again. Because of that, I want to go to church.
• 15:30
  Speaker 6: I think I'm going to stay in my life where
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: I want to believe. I am down for this that
• 15:33
  Speaker 6: there will never come a time but you're not with
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: our children exactly. We will never see them again, yes,
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: of course. Like so it's just like I never want
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: to I just don't want.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: To believe that.
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: Well, you also can choot. I mean I'm happy and
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: would love to go to church with you.
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I just also know that you can believe that
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: without course going there every Sunday.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but it just seems like again, it's like.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: I think that you need that to believe sometimes exactly
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: because like I am just more of an optimistic You're
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: not very pessimistic, but like I am just like, oh,
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: I am certain, like we're good, and like I feel.
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: Like you need a little bit more of like push.
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: Exactly because I feel like if I'm just convincing myself
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: to believe, then I'm like, this is ridiculous.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: I'm such a I'm a loser.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: Like I got we gotta I gotta share some stories
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: with you. You got to listen to some things maybe
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: all right about near death experiences and such, because they're incredible. Okay,
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: And our final headline of the week is Sean and
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: Catherine Love to celebrate twelfth anniversary since.
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: Their time on the show. They have welcomed.

• 16:48
  Speaker 4: oh Man in not in celebration directly with their twelfth anniversary,
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: but Sean posted the funniest Instagram reel yesterday of Catherine
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: in their pan just looking like I do every day.
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: You have to pull it up in perfectly encapsulates twelve
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: years of marriage. She's in the pantry just shoveling peanuts
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: in her mouth as he looks at her and pretend, Ah,
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, Jared, you must stick
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: with me for one more headline.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Well, anyway, congratulations Sean Catherine twelve years.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: Of course, that's amazing. Feels like just yesterday I was
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: watching their wedding. But it also feels like it's like
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: a been neon. I feel like they're just kind of
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: who else is being lived down in history now? So
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: it feels like history, who else is?
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: Married? Bachelor?
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: Well, Jared, how many?
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: How far?
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: What do you mean like Tristan Ryan in twenty one
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: or twenty two years?
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: Des and Chris had been married for about ten years.
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: Molly and Jason, Yeah, lots of double digits around here.
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: Our final headline is from the Sun and the Sun
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: is kind of a little bit of a tabloid, so
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: take it with a grain of salt. But I know
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: that a lot of people aren't loving Coulton on the
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: season of Traders.
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: I think he started I don't watch Traders.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: I do want to watch it, though, because this season
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: has I just feel like, well, it sounds juicy, but
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: usually people think it's pretty juicy, and I just think
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: that because it's a Bachelor in Housewives drama, I feel
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: like I really do need to watch it because my
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: worlds are colliding a little bit. Anyway, So Colton said
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: that he considered skipping the reunion after an overwhelming wave
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: of backlash tied to his villain edit on the show,
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: and that spilled over into the fan reaction and the
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: cast itself. He said he was so speculated, speculated that
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: he was feeling so upset about the social media attacksment
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: fans and his own cast mates, particularly when Lisa Renna
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: called him a stalker online, which we talked about in
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: last week's headlines. He said presumed that that was like
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: the final straw, and he made it clear to producers
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: that he would not show up to the season before reunion,
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: just to be attacked from all sides, and the same
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: frustration also apparently explains why he was notably not present
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: on the Watch What Happens Live episode this week, despite
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: him actually being scheduled as a guest on the show.
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: This is following Bravo announcing that Colton would be on
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: Tuesday show but was replaced by his rival on Traders,
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: Michael Rabbitport, with no explanation from the networks. He supposedly
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: told the producers that he wouldn't go to the reunion just
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: to be attacked. The frustration led to him also not
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: going on Watch What Happens Live as they had to
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: iron out how to address everything. And I'm just wondering
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: how Peacock is feeling about having cast Colton now that
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: they have all this off.
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: Line.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: Wasn't it good for the show?
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: I guess it's good for the show.
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: We were all talking about it.
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: People are very It's interesting how people are very divided
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: on whether or not he should have been there.
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: And I well, uh, well, what he did Cassie was
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: pretty missed up.
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: But but also I.
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: See I can see both sides, I suppose, but yeah,
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: it also just feel like, what are you supposed to do, like,
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: never let him do anything in his life.
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: Again, No, of course not. I disagree with that. Everybody
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: deserves the second chance. Also, truthfully, I don't know the
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: exact allegations against him. I know he was accused of
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: stalking and putting a like.
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: Outside her window. I mean it was so long ago.
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: But also, like you know, I see both sides, is
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: what I want to say.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I'm not at.
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: All condoning what he did.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: But it's also like, do we never let anybody move
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: Can we never let anybody move on with their lives?
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: No?
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: Of course, I think they're.
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: Saying that they that he doesn't deserve these opportunities on
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: a grand scale, which.
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: I don't.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 21:12
  Speaker 6: Listen, guys, if so, I think that if a show
• 21:14
  Speaker 6: wants to cast somebody and yeah, I mean unless it's
• 21:18
  Speaker 6: you know, somebody who's really uh, he's not OJ and evil. Yeah,
• 21:23
  Speaker 6: somebody did something horrible, but maybe it did rise to
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: that level.
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: I just I don't know the exact.
• 21:29
  Speaker 9: Also, I looked at the kind of platforms they, like
• 21:32
  Speaker 9: the media gave OJ after all that, like that, man,
• 21:37
  Speaker 9: I don't know, he was like always out like he
• 21:40
  Speaker 9: was always Yeah, I feel like he was always I
• 21:43
  Speaker 9: thought that was before.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: I just think of him in the Naked Gun, which
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: was obviously previous too.
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: Well yeah, no I'm talking about that doesn't fit.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: You must have quit.
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: People were just like still fascinated by him.
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: Well of course, but we're just fascinated by true crime
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: and that's just the society.
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: We're in documentaries.
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: And yeah, anyway, I mean, just to play devil's advocate here, Taylor, Frankie,
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: Paul Wash you know, arrested for using real boyfriend.
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: So yeah, damn.
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: So if she's the bachelorette, we have to just, I
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: don't know, kind of check ourselves. I don't know either way.
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: I see both sides. I don't want to get in
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: trouble here.
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: All right. All right, guys, that's headlines. Thanks for joining us, Babe,
