• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Ben is at a corporate meeting now, so I am
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: joined by Wells Adams again, second time this month. But well,
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: last time we talked to you was three weeks ago
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: before Paradise started, and now we have so much more
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: to ask you about. First off, like, after watching the
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: past couple of weeks, are you putting in your request
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: to to transfer over to being the Golden Bachelor? Uh, bartender?
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Are you like, eh, you know what, I've had enough
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: of these young folks.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, like the words that they're using, I don't
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: really understand.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah we were talking. Oh you mean the words
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: that the older people are using.
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: No no no no no no, like the young these
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: young kids that are you know it's all about riz
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah you know, yeah, it's it's scary. Like I'm like,
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: I don't know this language. So like when I watch
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: a little bit of the Golden Bachler, I'm like, oh,
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure I could decipher most of these words,
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: so I wouldn't feel like a complete idiot. I don't
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: want to be the bartender on what do you want
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: to do Golden Bacher. I want to be the bartender
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: on the Golden Bachelor in Paradise. I'm just like fingers
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: crossed and I have okay, and so like you're friends
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: with the producers, so like, let's make this happen. I've
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: been thinking about this, like what this really needs to
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: look like? If a Golden bacheler in Paradise, it can't
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: happen in Mexico. It needs to happen in like Del
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: Boca Vista in Florida. You know, it needs to be
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: like an old age home. Okay, what if it?
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Okay, that would be cool. I see where you're going
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: with that. But then do we make it to be
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: like snowy vacation so it's like in Aspen or someplace
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: like that.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: No, because old people leave the snow and they go
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: to Florida. They're called snowbirds, So it needs it needs
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: to go down there. Yeah. So I've got thought this
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: whole thing out, and so it needs to go down
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: to Florida or like Palm Springs or like Scats someplace
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: that's like way too hot. Right, everyone needs to get
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: around visa the golf carts. Okay, so like everyone will
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: have their own golf cart. I feel like, and then
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: when someone doesn't get a rose at a rose ceremony,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: they don't leave in like a you know, SUV black car,
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: they have to leave in a golf cart. I think
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: that would be so funny. I think dates need to
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: happen at a shuffle board court. They need to happen
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: at a bingo thing, Like there needs to be like
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: a bingo fight. I'm sure it'll happen, like whoever wins
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: bingo gets to go on the date and like whatever
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: and what else? What do old people love? Oh? And
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: the show like needs to like everyone needs to when
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: they do fantasy suites. It needs to happen like at
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: four forty five in the afternoon, like the sun still
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: needs to be up. When they're like see you later,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: they close the door.
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: You know. Amazing.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, now that you bring this up, I think
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: it's undeniable that it's gonna happen. Been especially with the writings.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Why not milk it for all it's worth Listen.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: I think the show is so Sacraine and like sweet
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: and it's I love the juxtaposition, especially that first episode
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: because I watched the first episode of the Golden Bachelor
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: and Bachelor in Paradise with Gary and with like half
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: the cast of Paradise.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: Where in La we were a watch party thing.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was he's, by the way, the sweetest
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: old man. I've not even old man. He's a young guy,
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: but he's the sweetest guy. I met his daughters and
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: his like his niece or whatever, and so we watched
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: that show. I had no idea what to expect. I
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: talked to producers and they were like, it's really good,
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: like it's really heartwarming. But the juxposition between like him
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: being so sweet and the ladies being kind of like
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: so lovable, and then to like you want to suck
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: on my toes, like I don't have the taste too,
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: she has to taste me. And it was like whoa.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: We went from like the sweetest little shit to like,
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: what is this show?
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: So I love like the It was like a complete
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: one eighty. So yeah, I really do hope that there
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: is a golden Batcher in Paradise one day.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: It probably will.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: But speaking of Will, Will has been a main character
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: of the first two episodes of Paradise. Yeah, and he
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: and I say speaking of Will because he was the
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: one talked about sucking on toast if anybody doesn't remember, Yeah,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: he is so funny to me because he just I'm
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: not sure is he the kind of guy that is
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: going to just fall in love with anyone? Because when
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: he says, after just like one romantic conversation after two
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: days in Paradise, I know I'm not one to talk,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: but he goes, It's always been Mercedes, just always been Mercedes.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: Tell us what you know about Will?
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I think that he so just desperately wants
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: to be loved and he's a really really sweet guy,
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: and he really wears his heart on his sleeve. And
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: I think what I love about him the most is
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: that there's a lot of like there for the right
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: reasons talk obviously every season, And I really do think
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: that Will wants to get married, Like I think that
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: like he really really wants to be engaged. He wants
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: to start a family. You can tell he's very family oriented.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: Like my money's on, he is the biggest mama's boy
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: that anyone's ever met, So like, in that respect, I
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: can't put a lot of blame on him, Like he's
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: doing the thing that we are all hoping everyone's doing there,
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: which is really taking this seriously and really wanting to
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: find somebody. He's now getting kind of beaten down a
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: little bit. And I think that I was talking about
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: this on my podcast, and I don't know. I'm not
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: a woman, but I think I understand women enough. The
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: problem that Will has is he doesn't kind of ooze confidence,
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: and I think that's one of his his good traits.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: He's just very honest, and I think he's very emotionally sophisticated,
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: but you can tell that he, like I think, questions
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: his worth and everything. And I think women can kind
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: of smell that from like a mile away. Yeah, And
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: I like, I didn't get a lot of conversations with him,
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: and I wish I had, and I wish I'd been
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: able to see all this because I really would have
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: been like, I think you need to play it a
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: little bit cooler, and I think things will be different
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: because if you on paper, he's six four six ' five,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: he's ash, he's so handsome, like absolutely shredded. He's got
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: a good job, he wants to get and get Like
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: on paper, everything should be like this should be the guy,
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: you know, but he did. I think his confidence level
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: just needs to come up a little bit, and you know,
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: who knows what will happen with him the rest of
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: the season, and if he's around for seasons to come,
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: I think he'll learn more about himself and more about
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: how to kind of like act going down the road.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: And that's one thing that I think the show does
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: really well because everyone comes with the show very very young,
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: us included. And I remember watching a back learning so
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: much about me and learning so much about women and
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: how they interact with like my personality and stuff. And
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: it's really like a good place of growth. And so
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: I do hope that for Will. But he does come
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: across a little like, I don't know, no confidence.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, at a little desperate.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm tiptoeing around the world.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: But like also he's very endearing, like you say, and
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: I think that comes because he is a little maybe insecure.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah. That scene of him and Mercedes on that day
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: bed where he starts crying, yeah, and she wants to
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: make out with it. Like I was thinking that. I
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: was like, if I'm a woman, I'd be like, what
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: am I doing? I'm at this guy's crying on my shoulders.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: It's like the weirdest thing because I think girls like
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: it when guys cry in general, Like as a viewer,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: I like watching will cry, But I don't want the
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: guy that I'm with to be like I wouldn't be
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: attracted to that, Like if he was sitting next to
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: me and he was.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: About to make out with me, you know, yeah he'll learn. Yeah.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: So, speaking of like egos, I have this sense that
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Tyler Norris, who's coming in this week, may have grown
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: a little bit of one.
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: Am I wrong?
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Oh I don't know. I mean he kind of got
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: a bad rap last season. If I'm being honest, I
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: think he got a little bit blindsided. And listen, he
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: was a really sweet guy last season in and yeah,
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: I don't I would say, I don't think so okay, okay,
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: that's good to me. He's the same guy. He's like
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: a very much a hot commodity, which I totally understand.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: He's a very cute, good looking guy, and he also
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: kind of knows this world better than most you know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: like a lot of people this is their first time
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: on the beach, so he kind of is able to
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: come in with some knowledge about like how to navigate
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: these things, and he got burned last time. So I
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: think he knows what to look for and what not
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: to look for. But no, I wouldn't say he comes
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: in with like arrogance or like over ego.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Okay, okay, because I wasn't sure if he was just
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: walking down and being like, ah, I know I'm here,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: everybody's excited.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Well yeah, I mean I think he knows he's an
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: attractive guy. But here's the thing, so is everybody else?
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I know, So Aaron B. What's Aaron B?
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Like?
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Because it's another person that is on my list as like,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: I'm not really sure how to vibe him.
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: Oh, vibe him?
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah. He is a very nice guy, comes from like
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: a very good family, chooses his words very wisely. He's
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: very smart, well spoken. He's also like a very religious
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: guy like his his his faith is an important thing
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: and he's just a stand up dude. He's also very tall.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: He's like six six, he's the tallest guy that we
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: have there. Yeah, I really like he is. He's an adult,
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: if I can say. Yeah. But but but like him
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: and I, our energies are not the same. Like I'm
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: always like trying to crack jokes and like messing around.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: He's a very serious.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Okay, So that's probably why I may not vibe him
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: through the TV because like, I just don't know that
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: we would like have fun conversations.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: But not to say that he's not a nice guy.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he's He's a lovely person. Yeah, he's
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: just like yeah, like I don't know if i'd like
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: go to the bar with him, like get drunk and
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: like mess around, like you know, I don't know.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: See it's because he doesn't smile. That kind of makes
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: it he's not a smiling guy at all. Yeah, with maturity.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: We have this fight between Aaron S and Peter. Yeah,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: total opposites to Aaron B. Then right, Yeah, that.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: Was a very interesting ordeal. I saw that whole thing
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: go down. Okay, So and I've had some time to
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: think about it because in real time, I was just like,
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: this is just bonkers, what's happening here? Okay. So there's
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: a couple things when and you probably remember this, and
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: from doing the show, you can you see it happen
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: every every season. Whoever has the whether it's the guys
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: or the girls. In this case, it was the guys
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: who had the roses in that particular night where the
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: head was like dancing and like doing that weird thing.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: The people who have the roses get a little power hungry,
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: if you will, Like they know that they have the power.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: They know the girls need to come to them, you know,
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: and it's always a bad look. And I always at
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: the bar, I'm like, this is not a smart thing,
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: because you know what, tomorrow you're not going to have
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: the roses, but everyone's going to remember that you were like,
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: ladies come to me. And so I think that there's
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: a little bit of that with Peter, like he's like,
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: the ladies need to come to me. But it's interesting
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: about what happened he had the only yes. What's interesting
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: to me is that he actively goes after Sam, who
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: is being pursued by Aaron s right, so all the
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: girls are come after him. He's like, but there's one
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: girl that's not coming after me that. So I don't
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: know if it was like an ego thing that he
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: was like, I need to talk to her as well.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: But then I also understand, like we're you know, this
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: is the second day second rose ceremony. First first, I
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: don't even know that.
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: Was the first rose ceremony.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's so early where I can understand him
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: being like I'm talking to everybody, you know, like I
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: deserve to be able to chat with everybody. And also
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: like Aaron asks, how close are you really with Sam?
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: I don't know if I believe it, so I understand
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: both sides. I also think that I might have had
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: something to do with that. I think I made him
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: a couple of drinks and then he starts dancing like
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: a crazy person behind them, and that's to me, seems
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: like a wells issue that I did to him. I'm
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: not one hundred percent sure on that, but I do
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: think it was funny, like it.
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: Was funny, it was weird tho initially it was funny
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: and then it was like, okay, this is ridiculous. Yeah,
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: I'm good at days out now, that's like one of
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: those fights that I like days out in.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: And then like if so, this never really happened when
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: I was on the show, and you very rarely see
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: it when someone comes and pulls Usually it's like, Okay,
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: see you later, I'm gonna go. When someone says like
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: give me a couple more minutes, that that's when you
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: know you're like, oh no, oh, yeah, yeah.
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: I didn't.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: I shouldn't have done this. Yeah, but Peter did not
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: feel that way at all. He had no like Puller's remorse,
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: and he was like, no, I'm gonna dance and whatever. Yes,
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: it was. It was a weird, uh, a weird thing
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: that happened. And also Sam like wasn't feeling it. I
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: don't think you know.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Peter ends up giving his rose to Olivia, who
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: scares me a little bit.
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: What's she like in real life?
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: Uh? She is scary.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say, you're gonna be like Ashley, you
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: would be very scared by her.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're You're spot on with everybody so far.
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah she is.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: She's very honest and which makes her fantastic in the
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: interview chair, like when I watch the show back, like
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: she is so so good. But yeah, she Uh, she
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: does freak me out a little bit.
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: Does she ever say anything to you that made you uncomfortable?
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: Uh? No, I'll tell this story because it is funny.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: She complained about my drinks a lot, and she always
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: said that they were too alcoholic.
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: Oh, I sure that usually people complain the opposite exactly,
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: like by law or like my law.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: My bachelor law, like I can't make very stiff drinks,
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: Like I'm you know, like there's liability on my shoulders
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: about like making sure everyone stays pretty sober. So I'm
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: not making very stiff drinks. And yeah, if if there's
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: ever really complain about me, it's dude, this is the
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: weakest drink I've ever had. And it's like, what do
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: you want me to do? Man, We're making a TV
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: show and we don't want you falling down drunk. And
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: so she would complain about my drinks being too alcoholic,
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: and I was like, I'm sorry, like they're not that
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: alcohol I don't know what to tell you. And so
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: it kept up, and I started to get like a
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: little offended, you know, like I don't make terrible drinks.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not like the best mixologist in the world,
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: but I'm not the worst either. And also, like margarite
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: is not too hard to make. So she asks for
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: a drink one time, and I went to a camera
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: person and I went to a sound guy and said, hey,
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: I know you're not on us right now, like they
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: were filming like other conversations, but I was like, can
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: you put a camera on me right now?
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: I love I feel like I've done that before. I'm like,
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: you're missing good stuff.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like over here. So I was like, hey, watch
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: me film me make this drink. So I make her
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: a mocktail, right, so it's just there's no alcohol in
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: it whatsoever. And I shake it up like I am
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: making a real drink, and of course bartender the camera
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: guy's like, I don't know what I'm filming here, but whatever,
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: and so I give her the drink and like, without
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: missing a beat, she goes, oh, alcoholic, and I go,
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: you want to know what's funny? And she goes but
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: and I go, there's no alcohol in that drink, and
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: she goes, she would she would say this thing a lot.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: She goes real back the tapes, real back the tapes,
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: and you're like, she was gonna say it.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: So I say, oh, do you see why this camera
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: guy's on me right now? It's because he filmed me
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: making this drink to prove to you that you have
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: no idea what alcohol tastes like. And she like wouldn't
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: believe it. And so finally someone else was there I
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: can't remember who it was, and they're like, try this.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: It is so alcoholic. And someone drank it and was like,
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: that's pineapple juice.
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: That's so good.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: There was obviously some ingredient that you were putting in
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: there that she wasn't used to tasting in regular life.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think. I think it was probably lime juice,
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: if I'm big honest with you, which is a very
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: important ingredient in all Mexican drinks.
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: That is such a good story. Thank you so much
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: for sharing that.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, So other people that I want to talk about,
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: like their vibes, the vibe checks. Jess is with Blake,
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: and this is an unexpected pairing for me, just because
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: when she was on our podcast, she seemed very innocent
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: and very religious. Now he has not come across that
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: way to me in other prior shows. What's he like
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: in real life and what's their dynamic?
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: Like, Okay, Blake is probably too smart to be on
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: this show, if I'm like, he gets but he's also
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: been on enough that like he kind of gets it.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: Like I remember there was a fight going down and
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: no one had cameras on it, and he like pulled
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: his mic and was like, is someone on this fight
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: over there?
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: Okay? So he's us all right?
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he was he's smart. But here's like I don't
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: know about his like how religious he is in comparison
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: to Jess. But he is a very good man, Like
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: his work is uh yeah, you know, virtuous, and he
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: believes in what he does. And he's Canadian, so like
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: he's obviously very sweet and nice and says sorry too often?
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: Does he say sorry?
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so sorry? Yeah, yeah you can hear he's got
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: some Canadians usually yeah key watching you'll, I mean, when
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: it happened between him and Jess, Like I wonder I'm
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: confused with Jess because she is a woman. She is,
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: you know, twenty two, twenty three years old, but then
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: she does have these like very he'd like qualities to her,
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: you know, like the glitter and like she's always kind
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: of very nervous and timid, and I just I always
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: wonder if she's like truly ready for what this is,
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: which is like a build up to an engagement, you know.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: And I wonder how many like serious relationships she's been
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: in because she is so sweet and innocent and so
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: into that respect. Like Blake obviously has proven himself over
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: and over and over and over and over again as
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: a guy who like is ready to like go to
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: the next step, like now he even got engaged, right Yeah,
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: And I wonder if she's there like emotionally, you know,
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: or or like or it's like maybe a couple of
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: years down the road for her. I'm not really sure.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: But they're both like the nicest people I've ever met,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: and I'm rooting for him.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: She loves Taylor Swift, as you know all of us do.
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: Everyone.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: She's going through a little bit of an over exposure
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: phase and I'm a little bit tired.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: I think it's real. There's a part of me that
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: thinks it's all fake.
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: Why would she need any fake pr.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: The Travis Kelsey's I don't. I just it just doesn't
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: seem It seems very like calculus. I don't know, like
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: for some reason.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: That's why I that's why I'm like kind of like
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: in a I need to like give myself a Taylor
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: break right now, because everything seems calculated. The Sophie Turner
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: stuff is extremely calculated. So I'm just like, Okay, let's
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: just anyway, but let's get to back to the the Taylor.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: I haven't even like, I know, right, I haven't really
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: even expressed a lot of these feelings because it's like
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: so divisive.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: But like you, guys, I love Taller.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: So she's honestly my favorite artist of all time musically,
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: even though one time I told you it was Hanson.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: Of course it's also Hansen, but like, as far as
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: you know a whole collection, yeah, it's probably Taylor.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: She's just massive.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: Anyway, the Taylor swift to the Bachelor franchise is apparently
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Hannah Brown.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: I feel like she's Jesus Christ.
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: Like, like, so, did you think that the over there
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: was an overreaction.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like the second Coming of Christ came to Paradise.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: It was very odd. Yeah, it was. I think it
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: was a it was a big overreaction. Like she's lovely
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: and she I think she probably is one of the
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: best bacherettes we've ever had, so like, I totally understand
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: the fanfare of it all. But I did think it
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: was so funny how like you know, like everyone's like, oh,
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: it's Hannah Brown, like all these women who are all tense,
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: they're all absolutely gorgeous, being like I should just leave now,
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: You're like, what are you talking?
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: What I told Ben last week? I actually kind of relate.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: There is something about Hannah Brown.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: That is very intimidating to me.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: And I think it's just because there's something about our
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: personality that I said that I can't put a I
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: can't pinpoint.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: What it is.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: But there's a quality about her personality that I'm jealous
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: of and I want to be Yea in the same
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: in the same way that I feel I guess about Taylor.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I can totally see that. And she had
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: so many iconic moments, especially once being like a very
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: strong woman on the show, like moving the the rose
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: stand and everything, like that's so very iconic. And she's
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: and like her nickname is the Beast, like it's it's
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: I totally get it. My The thing that I kind
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: of didn't love about it was Rachel's there and she
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: also is the bachelorette, and like people don't weren't like
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: freaking out, they were kind of but there was a
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: part of me that was like, I don't I don't
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: love how this looks to me, you know, like there
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: is another bachelorette here who also is a badass and
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: of whom I love dearly, And so yeah, it was
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: it was a very interesting thing, but I get it,
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: Like she was on TV a lot, so I can
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: see how a lot of people are very like starstruck
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: by it.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she's also Dancing with the Stars winner, Special Forces Winner.
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: She's a wee one.
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: Then yeah, is that over? That was the first season?
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: So then how did you feel about the fact that
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: they made it seem like she was single in there
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: to date for a second, because I think that was
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: the issue that we had, or like this is so
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: this is dumb, like everybody knows she's with someone.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: My favorite thing was like, uh, Jesse, you know, at
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: the top of the Paradise skates being like head ye, Like, Jesse,
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: come on, man, you know who's coming because you have
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: to like prep your questions? Yeah, because because the bit
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: was we know she's coming, but we don't know why
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: she's coming, right, like right, So I thought I thought
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: that was very very funny of Jesse be like I
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: can't believe it. Of course, come on, you know she's here.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: I know. Do you know who's coming before you go on?
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: No? And that's all always nice though, because they'll be
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: like a producer will be like, okay, go down, We'll
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: like mike me up, and they'll be like we're just
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: sending everyone there lots happened, get the download, so then
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: I can also use that as a way for them
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: to do recaps. They don't use it very often, but
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: like a lot of times, I'm like, all right, tell
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: you what's going on. So then someone's like, Okay, this
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: is the yeah. Yeah, like the whole the whole bit
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: of like is she here to date? Is she here
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: to not? And I liked how I'm sure she was
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: like my fiance, I think she was engaged.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: At the time, she was engaged.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, or my boyfriend might feel uncomfortable about this,
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: but just pulling one guy, so I'm gonna pull two guys,
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: so yeah, because you know, so it's the optics are
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: a little bit better. But yeah, the people there that
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: were like that knew what her story was at the time,
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: knew I think feel like knew that she wasn't there
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: to date anybody. But the guys, like I feel like
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: Sean was like he was the first one that popped up.
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: He said, Hey, that's good.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: I know they were being so naive.
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: I liked I loved her coming there. Here's what I loved.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: I loved the bit, like the whole thing was like
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: she got a lot of really juicy stuff out of them.
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: She did.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: All those questions were very very good, made very very
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: awkward for everybody. So like, I love the idea of
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: the fireside chat that she got all that stuff out
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: of them. I don't even know if I needed the
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: like is she here to date? Is she not? You know,
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: like I think that's just more of like the sizzle
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: real promo stuff.
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: Okay, well, she's the Taylor Swift of the franchise. Then
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: who's the Travis kelce Jesse. I guess I don't know.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Well to think about this. Ben could be Ben, but
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: now Ben is beloved. Yeah, but it is if Travis
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: kelcey beloved, Like we need somebody who's like a little obnoxious.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: In Kansas City, a little like Big Tyler Cameron.
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it could be more like Tyler.
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: No that Tyler's not obnoxious, but you know it's just
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: like the pandemonium around him, Yeah, obly Tyler, which hilariously,
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: you know, there's the two of them, I know together
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: that made literally headlines almost as Big and.
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: Taylor Swifted Travis Kelce' stuff.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: Right, h all right, I know we have to let
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: you go in a second, but let's just talk about
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: Katie Thurston's arrival, which we do think is happening soon.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: She was on our podcast last week, and it really
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: seems as if she's there to date. I was thinking
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: she was coming down as a hand of brown situation,
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: was going to lead some date. But she's teasing that
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: she might be having fun down there.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, obviously I can't tell you what the
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: answer is to that question, but like, we're having more
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: bachelorettes come this season than we've ever had.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you said that last time, and I was like, well,
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: what are you talking about. There's only Rachel there to date,
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: thinking that Katie was just gonna go walk down the
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: stairs and do something, you know, inconsequential.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, here's the thing, Like we know that she
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: is single because she's also on like another reality TV
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: dating show, right, Like, so she's up for the challenge,
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: I suppose. But you'll have to wait and see about that.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: But I will say this, we do a fun thing
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: with everybody that includes Katie and myself and Jesse when
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: she gets there. So that's gonna be a really fun
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: episode for everyone to watch.
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: Now you're throwing me off again, ya, I don't know.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: We'll see.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: She said that Blake turned white as a ghost when
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: she when they saw each other.
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: He was not pleased that that was happening. And I
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: don't know. I could be wrong about this, but I
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: think that they hadn't spoken for two since. Yeah, so
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: it was Can you imagine like running into your ex
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: and you haven't spoken in two years and then there's
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: a camera in front of you.
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, and they didn't end in what seems to
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: be the best situation.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think so, because.
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: She went on and dated John right away and yeah, and.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: Then bottom of the van and I don't know.
