- 0:21Speaker 5: I mean, I hope people, hope people know. Actually, I
- 0:24Speaker 5: gotta tell you a story. As we kicked this off.
- 0:28Speaker 5: You know, as we mentioned weeks ago, I was going
- 0:31Speaker 5: to start quite a bit of travel. I've been in
- 0:33Speaker 5: that and I've been in two different airports now, but
- 0:37Speaker 5: this where people have came up to me and said,
- 0:39Speaker 5: I just love to listen to your podcast. This week
- 0:41Speaker 5: was a really incredible week where I was sitting and
- 0:44Speaker 5: getting ready to get on my flight home from DC,
- 0:48Speaker 5: sat next to a guy. He goes my and he
- 0:50Speaker 5: just says like, hey, my wife listens to your show
- 0:52Speaker 5: and tells me kind of about their story. He ends
- 0:55Speaker 5: up buying me my drink. Oh fine, It's very sweet
- 0:59Speaker 5: of them. Super And then at the same time, somebody
- 1:02Speaker 5: came up from behind and she shared a story that
- 1:05Speaker 5: she was on her way to her father's celebration of
- 1:08Speaker 5: life in Arizona, and she said that she's listened to
- 1:12Speaker 5: us since the very beginning. Absolutely loves the show. She said,
- 1:15Speaker 5: I love Ashley Ashley. She's like when I first watched
- 1:20Speaker 5: her on TV, I didn't think I could relate it
- 1:21Speaker 5: with her. But the more I get to know Ashley,
- 1:23Speaker 5: I can relate with her so much.
- 1:24Speaker 4: Oh my gosh.
- 1:26Speaker 3: So I just want to share that with you.
- 1:27Speaker 5: Some very nice people have been coming out in airports
- 1:30Speaker 5: just to say they listen to the show, or they
- 1:32Speaker 5: you know, maybe their girlfriend listened to the show.
- 1:35Speaker 3: It always makes me feel warm inside.
- 1:39Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, it's exciting, but yeah, I just want
- 1:43Speaker 5: to give that a little shout out, and that again,
- 1:46Speaker 5: actually you are still loved and you always will be loved.
- 1:49Speaker 5: And at the same time, we have a lot of
- 1:52Speaker 5: love to talk about this week on Paradise, and so
- 1:55Speaker 5: it's a big episode.
- 1:56Speaker 3: Ashley.
- 1:56Speaker 5: I know that you are fresh off of watching it.
- 2:00Speaker 5: Your your thoughts are very clear. Yes, I uh, I'm
- 2:04Speaker 5: fresh off of watching it as well. And uh, I
- 2:07Speaker 5: just you know, that was the first thing I did
- 2:09Speaker 5: this morning, is I watched Paradise. Quite a way to
- 2:12Speaker 5: wake up and have your coffee.
- 2:13Speaker 4: Is Yeah, it's.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Nice and Paradise just pull my laptop, onto my lap,
- 2:18Speaker 2: get a cup of coffee.
- 2:19Speaker 4: It's great.
- 2:20Speaker 2: This episode was overall just like confusing to me in
- 2:25Speaker 2: some ways.
- 2:27Speaker 4: Okay, wow, Okay, I guess we'll hit on them as
- 2:29Speaker 4: we go through.
- 2:31Speaker 2: We we We'll start with the first big storyline, which
- 2:35Speaker 2: was the fact that Sam hasn't pooped, so she will
- 2:38Speaker 2: be leaving again.
- 2:40Speaker 4: Confused the theme that she didn't try.
- 2:43Speaker 2: An enema, she must have kind of kind of wanted
- 2:47Speaker 2: to leave.
- 2:48Speaker 4: She must have kind of just wanted to leave.
- 2:50Speaker 5: Right, I mean, you know, my my thought there was
- 2:54Speaker 5: I was confused to until the end. And obviously we're
- 2:56Speaker 5: gonna get into that where Aaron Est kind of has
- 2:59Speaker 5: his I was wondering.
- 3:01Speaker 3: If she kind of him.
- 3:02Speaker 4: She probably like him, Yeah, she.
- 3:04Speaker 5: Wasn't like convinced, and she's like, I don't feel good
- 3:07Speaker 5: and this isn't working for me, so I'm gonna go home.
- 3:09Speaker 2: They didn't seem compatible, to be honest. The more we
- 3:11Speaker 2: get to know him, I'm like, he's drama, he's angsty,
- 3:16Speaker 2: and she just seems well adjusted. Yeah.
- 3:19Speaker 5: I mean, even in the midst of a very weird time,
- 3:23Speaker 5: she was just kind of chill and cool about it.
- 3:25Speaker 5: And I don't think there's anybody that I've ever met
- 3:28Speaker 5: in my life that would have handled that situation with
- 3:32Speaker 5: as much like grace and just comedy and also like
- 3:38Speaker 5: realness as she did. I'm sure it was embarrassing for
- 3:41Speaker 5: She's went home. I'm I would say, I'm shocked that
- 3:44Speaker 5: it didn't happen. I really thought this was all a
- 3:47Speaker 5: teaser to for it to happen at some point.
- 3:52Speaker 3: Yeah, I was very surprised.
- 3:55Speaker 2: There was gonna be like some silly like the turtle thing,
- 3:58Speaker 2: like there were gonna be so many things they were.
- 3:59Speaker 4: Gonna like shoot fireworks or something.
- 4:02Speaker 2: And definitely thought it was leading up to something that
- 4:04Speaker 2: they were gonna make funny, and then at the end
- 4:07Speaker 2: of the episode of realized it's truly not funny because
- 4:09Speaker 2: she's been gone for two days and she still hasn't gone,
- 4:12Speaker 2: assuming that she's in America, and you know, maybe maybe
- 4:16Speaker 2: she's gone to the hospital now.
- 4:18Speaker 5: But I'm hoping she posts on Instagram and update like
- 4:21Speaker 5: hey she did, like it's been months now, Like I think,
- 4:24Speaker 5: I think we need to get an update, like hey,
- 4:26Speaker 5: all it all worked out.
- 4:28Speaker 4: I do want to know the whole story.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Like I feel guilty because it's weird to like know
- 4:32Speaker 2: somebody's private business like that. But yeah, she should definitely
- 4:35Speaker 2: post an Instagram reel explaining the moment it actually happened,
- 4:40Speaker 2: not explain it. I don't know, Okay, Well tell me
- 4:43Speaker 2: how many days? Tell me how many days? And did
- 4:46Speaker 2: it have Did it happen at home or was the hospital?
- 4:49Speaker 4: That's what I mean.
- 4:50Speaker 5: And I would love to know from Sam, like what
- 4:53Speaker 5: was the feeling like of jubilation.
- 4:56Speaker 4: I don't know. It probably hurt like hell.
- 4:58Speaker 3: I would like to know that, but I don't need
- 5:00Speaker 3: the details.
- 5:00Speaker 4: I don't need to know tell me the details, but
- 5:02Speaker 4: I need the details.
- 5:03Speaker 5: Yeah, but that's the big storyline at the beginning, and
- 5:05Speaker 5: then it goes away, and it probably should.
- 5:07Speaker 3: We've talked about it for weeks.
- 5:09Speaker 5: It's been in every teaser, it has its own animals
- 5:12Speaker 5: making fun of it.
- 5:14Speaker 3: It's done, it's gone.
- 5:16Speaker 5: But I do just think we should end it Ashley
- 5:19Speaker 5: with being very clear, but we are on team Sam.
- 5:23Speaker 5: We feel really bad for her. There is nothing embarrassing
- 5:25Speaker 5: about that. Nobody is judging her. In fact, I hope
- 5:29Speaker 5: nobody on any date and for the rest of her
- 5:31Speaker 5: life brings it up to her. She can bring it up,
- 5:33Speaker 5: that's fine, Like, hey, I'm a girl known as the
- 5:34Speaker 5: girl Couldn't Poop on Paradise but just really a big
- 5:39Speaker 5: fan of Sam and I'm sorry her chapter ended like this.
- 5:43Speaker 4: Totally totally all right.
- 5:45Speaker 2: So next big drama is John Henry comes down the
- 5:49Speaker 2: stairs and John Heunter is cute and I get why
- 5:52Speaker 2: everybody's into him. He kind of has a pilot Pete look,
- 5:56Speaker 2: and Kat seems like she's complimenting him a lot. And
- 6:02Speaker 2: he also pulls Kylie and Olivia and he ends up
- 6:06Speaker 2: asking Olivia on the date. I was surprised by this
- 6:09Speaker 2: because they seem like complete and total opposites.
- 6:13Speaker 4: This guy is relaxed, just browie.
- 6:20Speaker 3: He's also awkward.
- 6:22Speaker 4: He's very awkward ward yeah, but like.
- 6:24Speaker 5: Socially very like shy and kind of endearing, endearing in
- 6:29Speaker 5: so many ways. I don't think that's not I don't
- 6:31Speaker 5: say awkward in like a bad in a bad way
- 6:33Speaker 5: as much as like, I just don't.
- 6:34Speaker 3: He's not as smooth as.
- 6:36Speaker 4: It, which I like like.
- 6:37Speaker 2: I like the fact that he's hot but doesn't have
- 6:40Speaker 2: this like ego not cockiness to go with it.
- 6:43Speaker 5: And he's interesting. He has a great story. I would
- 6:48Speaker 5: argue back to you, Ashley. And so really that the
- 6:51Speaker 5: Olivia John Henry relationship makes sense to me only because
- 6:56Speaker 5: in my life I have so many people who have
- 6:59Speaker 5: been married for their lives who are very similar.
- 7:03Speaker 3: Right.
- 7:04Speaker 5: Yeah, the guy is maybe a little shyer, more awkward,
- 7:07Speaker 5: quieter kind of just like enjoys his things, and then
- 7:11Speaker 5: his partner is usually like more outgoing, like boisterous, and
- 7:15Speaker 5: he just kind of sits back and smiles, and he
- 7:17Speaker 5: he loves it and he laughs at it, and he's
- 7:19Speaker 5: so appreciative that she keeps that like humor and spark
- 7:22Speaker 5: in the relationship and that she's so loved by everybody,
- 7:25Speaker 5: and she's so extroverted and the guy's just kind of
- 7:27Speaker 5: more quiet. I know many couples like that, and it
- 7:30Speaker 5: works because they both love the uniqueness of each other.
- 7:35Speaker 2: Yeah, it's definitely an opposite to attract attraction. Sure, And
- 7:42Speaker 2: I can see how she made him comfortable because she's
- 7:45Speaker 2: so not shy that it made the date not awkward
- 7:52Speaker 2: because like she was just like pulling it along. Could
- 7:54Speaker 2: you imagine if he did pick somebody who's a little
- 7:57Speaker 2: bit more subdued that it would just be like pulling
- 8:00Speaker 2: teeth But they had a great time.
- 8:03Speaker 3: Yeah, it'd be very quiet.
- 8:04Speaker 4: Yeah. Here's the confusion for me.
- 8:07Speaker 2: I watched this date and then make out in the
- 8:10Speaker 2: pool and have this cute chemistry, and I was like,
- 8:14Speaker 2: why is she even considering Peter at home? As they
- 8:18Speaker 2: as they wrap the date, She's like, I'm excited that
- 8:20Speaker 2: I get to have like both of them right now.
- 8:22Speaker 2: And I'm like, I don't know about you, but I
- 8:24Speaker 2: am sold on John Henry for you, Peter, You're he
- 8:28Speaker 2: gave him a rose because like there was nobody else
- 8:30Speaker 2: to give a rose to or like or he gave
- 8:33Speaker 2: you a rose because there's no one else to give
- 8:34Speaker 2: a rose to.
- 8:36Speaker 4: You guys don't have anything.
- 8:37Speaker 3: He might be the safe choice. He might be the
- 8:39Speaker 3: safe choice right now.
- 8:40Speaker 4: Why because like he's less sought after.
- 8:43Speaker 3: He's left sought after and the John Henry deal.
- 8:45Speaker 5: I think she understands who he is, right She knows
- 8:48Speaker 5: that he's nervous and he's a little awkward and he's shy.
- 8:52Speaker 5: And I think that definitely like pulled her in and
- 8:54Speaker 5: she was very attracted to that. But I think there's
- 8:57Speaker 5: probably still a question in her mind of is but
- 9:00Speaker 5: is it, like is this really somebody I want to
- 9:02Speaker 5: hang out with more, Like is he gonna get comfortable?
- 9:04Speaker 5: And I think we saw it. We saw it, Yeah,
- 9:07Speaker 5: we saw it towards the end of the date.
- 9:11Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 9:12Speaker 5: I wonder if the whole Peter drama there is maybe
- 9:17Speaker 5: a little overplayed, Like I don't. I mean, I think
- 9:19Speaker 5: she is excited to have both of them.
- 9:20Speaker 2: But like a more of a love triangle for TV
- 9:23Speaker 2: than it really is. But then they end up making
- 9:25Speaker 2: out and she was like pretty giddy about it.
- 9:27Speaker 4: And my thought is like.
- 9:29Speaker 2: If you come back from a date with somebody that
- 9:31Speaker 2: you really like and made out with and you're like
- 9:33Speaker 2: ready to make out with somebody else, I guess he
- 9:34Speaker 2: really worn that sold.
- 9:36Speaker 4: But she came back so giddy.
- 9:37Speaker 5: Yeah, it's interesting. It's gonna be a relationship that I
- 9:40Speaker 5: think we're gonna be very fascinated to follow. You know,
- 9:44Speaker 5: I've been very clear since the beginning. Mercedes and Olivia
- 9:47Speaker 5: from Night from week one where like two people I
- 9:49Speaker 5: thought we're gonna have big personalities on this show. We
- 9:51Speaker 5: haven't seen as much of Mercedes, especially this episode, but
- 9:56Speaker 5: we you know, we got to see her one on
- 9:57Speaker 5: one last week. Olivia has continued to be the narrator
- 10:01Speaker 5: for this season, and she's done a great.
- 10:03Speaker 4: Job, Yes, really great at it. She is funny.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Still scares me a little bit, but a lot less,
- 10:09Speaker 2: especially since Kat is the one that scares me the most.
- 10:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 10:14Speaker 5: Kat, definitely I would much rather be. I would like
- 10:21Speaker 5: to be on Cat's bad side.
- 10:22Speaker 2: Yeah, because Olivia is gonna like shame you with words
- 10:25Speaker 2: and like in conversation and Kat's just gonna scream at you.
- 10:30Speaker 5: Yeah, And we really haven't seen I mean, we've seen
- 10:33Speaker 5: Olivia be mean, you know, kind of in the itms, yes, snarky,
- 10:39Speaker 5: but we haven't seen her exactly like lash out at
- 10:42Speaker 5: anybody or belittle anybody on the beach. I mean, I
- 10:47Speaker 5: think you could definitely pull those interviews and be like, yeah,
- 10:49Speaker 5: she was not being kind or she was definitely upset
- 10:52Speaker 5: with somebody. But I don't think and again I'm a
- 10:57Speaker 5: fan of own biased here, but I think Via doesn't
- 11:01Speaker 5: want to hurt people. I think she felt like she
- 11:04Speaker 5: had to kind of protect herself and defend herself at
- 11:07Speaker 5: the beginning, in the midst of something that she thought
- 11:09Speaker 5: was like really mean. And as we keep going through Paradise,
- 11:12Speaker 5: it's happening every week now and so nobody. You know,
- 11:15Speaker 5: it's maybe not as mean as it felt before because
- 11:17Speaker 5: it's like, yeah, everybody's stealing each other.
- 11:19Speaker 4: Yeah, so true. It was just like the shock effect. Okay.
- 11:23Speaker 2: The next thing that happens is that John b arrives
- 11:28Speaker 2: and again I'm a little confused. Well, I guess I
- 11:34Speaker 2: get confused later, and I guess I'll jump ahead to it.
- 11:38Speaker 2: He ends up picking Eliza for the date, and Eliza
- 11:42Speaker 2: is obviously got something good going on with Aaron B.
- 11:46Speaker 2: And I like the way that Aaron basically that I
- 11:50Speaker 2: don't want you to go on the date because you know,
- 11:51Speaker 2: I like it what people are really honest like that.
- 11:55Speaker 2: But then she goes to the date and they make
- 11:56Speaker 2: out and they have what seems to be a great time.
- 11:59Speaker 2: But the confused the theme of the show comes back
- 12:02Speaker 2: when she comes back and she goes.
- 12:04Speaker 4: I was thinking about you all day long, and I'm so.
- 12:07Speaker 2: Happy to be back here with you, And she's basically
- 12:12Speaker 2: telling her and me that she's picking him.
- 12:14Speaker 4: But you were just making out with someone's on the
- 12:16Speaker 4: top of the stairs. Where are you at, girl?
- 12:20Speaker 3: Well?
- 12:21Speaker 5: Yes, And I think that's probably one of the things
- 12:23Speaker 5: about Paradise that confuses me. The most is how exactly
- 12:26Speaker 5: do you figure out who you're into and who you're not, Because,
- 12:28Speaker 5: as you know, John Henry said, like everybody hears good looking,
- 12:31Speaker 5: Like everybody here has the physical attraction to each other. Right,
- 12:34Speaker 5: it's a beach full of good looking people. So then
- 12:36Speaker 5: you get into kind of the personalities and the beliefs
- 12:39Speaker 5: and the desires and the values of each person, and
- 12:44Speaker 5: you know, then you really start to figure.
- 12:45Speaker 3: Out like who you like and who you don't.
- 12:46Speaker 5: But I still think that for me, it's hard to
- 12:49Speaker 5: watch sometimes you're hard to understand because the physical attraction
- 12:52Speaker 5: is so prevalent always that it just feels like you
- 12:55Speaker 5: got to make out and then once like the dust
- 12:58Speaker 5: settles and you get back to everybody, then you probably
- 13:02Speaker 5: have some clarity on But I'm really actually into this
- 13:05Speaker 5: guy because he, you know, cares about me more, or hey,
- 13:08Speaker 5: he believes in this, or hey we've shared these conversations together.
- 13:11Speaker 5: I don't know, but I do just feel like that's
- 13:14Speaker 5: the danger of paradise is everybody's so attractive to each
- 13:16Speaker 5: other that you can make out with anybody anytime and
- 13:18Speaker 5: it's gonna feel right, you know, as long as you're
- 13:21Speaker 5: not you know, dating somebody else.
- 13:25Speaker 4: I but she was dating someone else, I know, But.
- 13:29Speaker 5: Like, are they really like that's the that's the part.
- 13:31Speaker 5: That's what I'm trying to get to is everybody kept.
- 13:33Speaker 4: Saying that they were like this most solid couple there.
- 13:35Speaker 3: Oh, maybe not anymore.
- 13:47Speaker 5: I wonder ashually if there is a piece here, because
- 13:50Speaker 5: we are starting to get into this every week where
- 13:53Speaker 5: you and I are both coming to the table watching
- 13:55Speaker 5: these separately, coming to the show and saying, hey, there's confusion.
- 13:59Speaker 5: I'm wondering if this season of Paradise is maybe not
- 14:02Speaker 5: storytelling as well as past seasons and closing up or
- 14:05Speaker 5: continuing on with stories. So as a result, we are
- 14:09Speaker 5: left confused, like we are left with a bunch of cliffhangers.
- 14:12Speaker 5: We are left with the whole picture, where maybe in
- 14:15Speaker 5: past seasons we felt like we had more of an
- 14:17Speaker 5: ability to tell what each person's at because, quite honestly,
- 14:21Speaker 5: if Eliza and Aaron b are the most solid couple,
- 14:25Speaker 5: we haven't seen that much from them that points to
- 14:27Speaker 5: them being that solid. No, so it doesn't feel weird
- 14:31Speaker 5: that she would go on a date, but then everybody's
- 14:33Speaker 5: shocked by it. Aaron Be's really saddened by it, and
- 14:35Speaker 5: then she gets back and she's back with Aaron B.
- 14:36Speaker 5: But we have no context for why that relationship feels
- 14:40Speaker 5: so powerful because I don't think that we're getting the
- 14:43Speaker 5: stories that maybe in past seasons that we were getting.
- 14:47Speaker 2: Yeah, we complained about storylines not closing last season too,
- 14:50Speaker 2: and I do feel like there was like a lot
- 14:52Speaker 2: of stuff during this episode.
- 14:53Speaker 4: That they could have clipped shorter and we could have.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Given us more contexts in these relationships. Who knows what
- 15:01Speaker 2: we're missing, But I do prefer Eliza with aar and B.
- 15:05Speaker 4: They're just based on the little we've seen. I just
- 15:08Speaker 4: feel a little bit more depth from them. I think
- 15:10Speaker 4: he's very serious about this relationship. And then you.
- 15:17Speaker 5: Know, just to add in there. Yeah, last thought, it's
- 15:19Speaker 5: interesting with all the stuff that starts happening this week
- 15:22Speaker 5: that Aaron B and Braiden really have. You know, everybody's
- 15:25Speaker 5: talking about the Sean Braden drama, like how they were
- 15:28Speaker 5: like they've closed you know, that drama pushed it behind
- 15:32Speaker 5: maybe until this week, but we haven't really seen any
- 15:35Speaker 5: Aaron B. Braiden conversation or drama and that was such
- 15:38Speaker 5: a storyline during Charity season.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no drama there, but we do see the
- 15:43Speaker 2: drama between Braiden and Sean.
- 15:45Speaker 3: Sure, but don't you think the Aaron B. Braiden drama, like.
- 15:49Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I'm so happy it's gone.
- 15:51Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it was so it was kind of
- 15:53Speaker 5: annoying actually during charity season where it felt like that,
- 15:56Speaker 5: you know, especially to make Aaron B really didn't like
- 15:59Speaker 5: him and he was trying to teckt himself from Maybe
- 16:00Speaker 5: they're running in two separate groups in Paradise and so
- 16:03Speaker 5: there's really no crossover and so there's no reason for drama.
- 16:06Speaker 2: No. I think that he just likes him now, okay, good. Yeah,
- 16:09Speaker 2: I think he's just gotten to know him better. And
- 16:10Speaker 2: I think because it's not a direct competition between them. Yeah,
- 16:14Speaker 2: bloody of girls to choose from them, and yeah, they're
- 16:17Speaker 2: not overlapping with girls.
- 16:19Speaker 4: It's it's been good.
- 16:20Speaker 2: But yeah, let's talk about that drama between Sean and Brydon,
- 16:25Speaker 2: because I think Sean really kind of deserved it. Yes,
- 16:32Speaker 2: I yeah, okay, I mean, so Sean is just being
- 16:35Speaker 2: a dumbass. Sean is really still hung up on Jess.
- 16:40Speaker 2: There's no chance for him and Jess. But this is
- 16:42Speaker 2: all proving to me this whole episode was proved to
- 16:45Speaker 2: me that Jess and Blake and don't really have anything serious.
- 16:50Speaker 5: Maybe you know, they're like good to they.
- 16:52Speaker 2: Like each other for now, but I don't think they're
- 16:54Speaker 2: like unbreakable.
- 16:56Speaker 5: Sean was weird in this episode because I do think
- 16:58Speaker 5: he's right in the fact that he was seeing the
- 17:01Speaker 5: writing on the wall, that Rachel and Sean are not
- 17:04Speaker 5: progressing in a path that feels like it's gonna work out,
- 17:07Speaker 5: and that she kind of has her eye on whoever
- 17:09Speaker 5: else comes.
- 17:09Speaker 2: Down to the bab they've made out like once in
- 17:12Speaker 2: seven days, Okay, and I can say it now, but remember,
- 17:16Speaker 2: and I think I don't know whether we cut it
- 17:18Speaker 2: out or not in the episode a couple weeks ago. Yeah,
- 17:20Speaker 2: but I try, said Rachel, and Rachel said, I forgot
- 17:23Speaker 2: that I even kissed him.
- 17:24Speaker 4: So like, you guys have nothing, and Sean.
- 17:28Speaker 2: Don't act as if you think that Rachel really likes
- 17:31Speaker 2: you when you guys have kissed once in seven days.
- 17:35Speaker 5: Well, and that might be that might be what he's feeling,
- 17:39Speaker 5: but he's not communicating it well, Like it doesn't come
- 17:41Speaker 5: off well when he's talking about how much Rachel likes him. Also,
- 17:46Speaker 5: I don't quite understand where his mind was at. I
- 17:49Speaker 5: think he's kind of swirling here and his mind's in
- 17:51Speaker 5: chaos because he says that Jess kind of stabbed, stabbed
- 17:55Speaker 5: in the back. Yeah, And I'm like, why, like you Yeah,
- 18:01Speaker 5: like I did you guys come to Paradise saying that
- 18:03Speaker 5: you're gonna date? And maybe you didn't, but that's not
- 18:05Speaker 5: even that bad. Like if she got to Paradise and
- 18:08Speaker 5: like somebody more, like that's how that works and whatever.
- 18:10Speaker 5: But where at what point did she like hurt you
- 18:15Speaker 5: or like personally like make you feel less than because
- 18:19Speaker 5: you've had no relationship that we've seen. And she's been
- 18:22Speaker 5: very honest with that, and she was very nice about
- 18:23Speaker 5: explaining that, Hey, I just don't see it.
- 18:25Speaker 3: Man, sorry, Like I'm good.
- 18:27Speaker 2: That was a reactionary comment because he just felt so
- 18:30Speaker 2: wounded that he shot his shot and got rejected and
- 18:36Speaker 2: in the meanwhile loses his backup his rose which is
- 18:42Speaker 2: from a quote quote from Rachel. But who the heck
- 18:45Speaker 2: knows even with him not doing that, I don't even
- 18:48Speaker 2: know that their quote relationship would have lasted through the
- 18:52Speaker 2: rose ceremony Sean and Rachel, because it's a mingling session,
- 18:56Speaker 2: and it's like.
- 18:57Speaker 3: Yeah, Sean's a smart dude.
- 18:59Speaker 5: He came on the podcast asked you know you and
- 19:00Speaker 5: I both had a great time interviewing him because he
- 19:03Speaker 5: was very open.
- 19:04Speaker 4: And he's dramatic.
- 19:05Speaker 3: Yeah, he's dramatic. I think.
- 19:09Speaker 5: So I'm confused at what his strategy was here, like,
- 19:11Speaker 5: how did he see this playing out? How did he
- 19:14Speaker 5: see a path forward through this? What was the best
- 19:17Speaker 5: case scenario? Because okay, say Jess says, no, I'm so
- 19:19Speaker 5: into you, Sean.
- 19:20Speaker 3: Okay.
- 19:20Speaker 5: Then he goes back to Rachel and has to any
- 19:22Speaker 5: think was hert I don't think she's at hurt. But
- 19:24Speaker 5: then he has Blake Uh sitting there being like, dude,
- 19:26Speaker 5: what are you like?
- 19:27Speaker 3: Okay?
- 19:27Speaker 5: Cool, like what are you doing about this? And then
- 19:30Speaker 5: obviously with the Braiden drama, then he brings up Braiden
- 19:34Speaker 5: again and he opens up this can that has been closed,
- 19:38Speaker 5: and I'm with Braiden again on this. I do wildly.
- 19:41Speaker 5: I don't know how this has happened in my life, Ashley.
- 19:44Speaker 5: I have no idea how this.
- 19:45Speaker 4: Happened that you that you like Braiden. Yeah, yeah, I'm.
- 19:47Speaker 3: Tem Braiden right now.
- 19:48Speaker 5: It feels like from every angle, he's kind of getting
- 19:51Speaker 5: like shots taken at him, and he's just like, I
- 19:54Speaker 5: don't get it.
- 19:54Speaker 3: Why would you do this? I thought we were good.
- 19:59Speaker 3: It's just weird.
- 20:00Speaker 2: Yeah, I just like him. He's honestly doesn't seem like
- 20:02Speaker 2: he's He was like so dramatic and conniving a little
- 20:07Speaker 2: bit on Charty season and like now he's just like,
- 20:11Speaker 2: what up, I'm grounded?
- 20:12Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean Sean is her vibrating a little bit too?
- 20:15Speaker 5: And I get I get why?
- 20:17Speaker 2: Yeah, So how do you feel about him going over
- 20:19Speaker 2: to Rachel and saying like, hey, he's talking to Jess
- 20:23Speaker 2: because he does he thinks that you're really into him,
- 20:26Speaker 2: but he's not really sure, just saying I would have
- 20:30Speaker 2: been so freaking pissed if I was Rachel like she was.
- 20:34Speaker 2: And he goes, yeah, she's really into me, but I
- 20:39Speaker 2: don't know about me, Like what she's really into me?
- 20:42Speaker 2: She and again, she hasn't shown no signs that she's
- 20:44Speaker 2: really into dude.
- 20:45Speaker 4: That's like him building up his own ego.
- 20:48Speaker 3: It's great, it's great.
- 20:49Speaker 5: Like what does he make a comment about if somebody
- 20:52Speaker 5: wants to come down that down those stairs and data
- 20:54Speaker 5: Kendall like he's living in this world way too much,
- 20:57Speaker 5: Like he's believing this whatever people are telling him too much,
- 21:01Speaker 5: and as a result, it's backfiring on him. The Braiden
- 21:04Speaker 5: thing I would have gone without. However, I don't think
- 21:08Speaker 5: it was untrue, and I and I guess we have
- 21:11Speaker 5: to gauge in Paradise, in this messiness on what is
- 21:16Speaker 5: true and what's not true. And what Braiden said was
- 21:19Speaker 5: not untrue, and so I can see where Sean would
- 21:22Speaker 5: be upset about it, because there's a bro code, an
- 21:27Speaker 5: unspoken bro code. But I also think that Braiden at
- 21:32Speaker 5: this point was saying he wants to go talk to Jess.
- 21:36Speaker 5: I see the door open, I'm walking through it.
- 21:39Speaker 2: So technically he could have not brought up Jess or
- 21:42Speaker 2: Sean at all and just kind of like hit on Rachel, and.
- 21:46Speaker 3: I think she would have been fine with it. Yeah
- 21:49Speaker 3: sounds good.
- 21:50Speaker 2: Yeah, he didn't have to like break their relationship in
- 21:53Speaker 2: any way.
- 21:55Speaker 5: Do you see this relationship continuing, Ashley, I don't. I
- 21:59Speaker 5: don't see Rachel and Braden splitting apart on the beach.
- 22:02Speaker 2: They're super hot together. I love it their chemistry. The kiss,
- 22:06Speaker 2: I was like, whoa.
- 22:08Speaker 5: And they both have that kind of similar personality. They'd
- 22:14Speaker 5: match each other. I see it, and so I do
- 22:17Speaker 5: think if I had to put my vote behind, I
- 22:20Speaker 5: would say that would be, in my opinion, one couple
- 22:22Speaker 5: I would say, will definitely make it to the end
- 22:24Speaker 5: of the beach. I don't know if they're getting engaged,
- 22:25Speaker 5: but they'll make it to the end of the beach.
- 22:27Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 22:28Speaker 2: I don't know that they're gonna make it to the
- 22:29Speaker 2: end of the beach, but they're gonna have a good
- 22:30Speaker 2: time together.
- 22:32Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean they're painting each other's butts in a preview.
- 22:34Speaker 2: So I mean, let them leave together, I'd be down.
- 22:36Speaker 4: I'd be down. Let's do it. I like them both
- 22:38Speaker 4: separately individually, it would.
- 22:40Speaker 5: Kind of be you know, something interesting, Ashley I thought of. Yeah,
- 22:44Speaker 5: it would be a very similar storyline to the Thomas
- 22:47Speaker 5: Beca situation. Oh yeah, A league comes to the beach,
- 22:51Speaker 5: dates the villain from his past season, that villain becomes
- 22:55Speaker 5: very beloved by the audience, and the two of them
- 22:59Speaker 5: walk off the beach together.
- 23:00Speaker 2: Then bravo for just coming up with that comparison, because
- 23:04Speaker 2: it's right on. Oh amazing, Okay, I love that. Okay,
- 23:10Speaker 2: next big thing to discuss is the truth box, which
- 23:13Speaker 2: Wells introduces. Says basically, it's whenever that post secret that
- 23:19Speaker 2: we used to have in two thousand and eight or
- 23:22Speaker 2: whatever that was. Instead of online posting your truths, you
- 23:27Speaker 2: put your troops into the box and then at some
- 23:31Speaker 2: point Wells is supposed to read them. Well during the
- 23:35Speaker 2: Row ceremony cocktail hour, Aaron S does the weirdest thing
- 23:41Speaker 2: when Wells gathers the crowd he's gonna read it, and
- 23:45Speaker 2: he's like, you know, Wells, the ones you're reading are
- 23:47Speaker 2: really tame. This is like, honestly, like, let's just say it.
- 23:51Speaker 2: This is a production move. There's no way this guy
- 23:53Speaker 2: came up with this idea in his head.
- 23:56Speaker 4: To be like, you know what, I'm gonna steal the
- 23:57Speaker 4: box and break it.
- 24:00Speaker 3: Sure, okay we can say that. Ashley. You're probably right.
- 24:03Speaker 3: But here's the deal.
- 24:05Speaker 5: And it's a great example of what we talk about
- 24:07Speaker 5: episode over episode. He could have said no to doing it,
- 24:10Speaker 5: like this is not a forced production mood. This is
- 24:12Speaker 5: somebody from production being like, Aaron, I can see your upset.
- 24:15Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, how crazy is that that Wells is
- 24:18Speaker 5: doing this? Like you have one night to try to
- 24:19Speaker 5: meet somebody and get a rose so you can stay
- 24:22Speaker 5: around next week. And you're wasting your time by reading
- 24:24Speaker 5: these simple little like secrets from people, like how angry.
- 24:28Speaker 3: Are you getting? And he's like, yeah, I'm getting angry.
- 24:30Speaker 5: Yeah, this is getting more annoying, this is getting more
- 24:32Speaker 5: another and then they say you should just step in
- 24:34Speaker 5: and start reading him yourself, and he's like okay, and
- 24:37Speaker 5: he does it, like he could have said no, and
- 24:39Speaker 5: then none of this becomes a thing he likes.
- 24:42Speaker 2: He probably wanted airtime too. He knew he was leaving.
- 24:44Speaker 2: He's like, I'm gonna leave it in a wrecking ball.
- 24:46Speaker 5: But it's how production works, and so it's this is
- 24:48Speaker 5: a good example of how production works where it's not
- 24:50Speaker 5: forced upon you. It is a recommendation. They start putting
- 24:54Speaker 5: seeds inside you, know, of doubt inside your head, and
- 24:57Speaker 5: then you make the decision to act on whatever it
- 25:00Speaker 5: is they're saying. And most of the time, if you
- 25:03Speaker 5: are not seeing it clearly, it's gonna look really bad.
- 25:07Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 25:07Speaker 2: There was a moment last year when Jared and I
- 25:09Speaker 2: were just guests in Paradise that we were around the
- 25:12Speaker 2: same bar and somebody came down the stairs and they
- 25:16Speaker 2: were like, Ashley, are you curious about this? And I
- 25:19Speaker 2: was like, yep, no, no, no, I am not my place.
- 25:23Speaker 4: I'm not saying that. Wells ended up saying it, and
- 25:27Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, well that's Wells. He's like a host.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Of course he's he can say that, you know, so, yes,
- 25:32Speaker 2: this is one of those quick suggestion possible moments and
- 25:36Speaker 2: you can just quickly be like, uh uh, I ignore.
- 25:39Speaker 3: Are you not doing it? I know, and I do
- 25:41Speaker 3: want to say this. I haven't texted him yet.
- 25:42Speaker 5: I was going to, but you know, Wells is one
- 25:47Speaker 5: of my best friends in the world.
- 25:48Speaker 3: I get.
- 25:49Speaker 5: I've gotten to know him very well, and I've gotten
- 25:51Speaker 5: to see a lot of different sides of Wells. And
- 25:54Speaker 5: for ninety nine percent of the time, Wells's Wells.
- 25:57Speaker 3: He's a blast. But he does have.
- 26:00Speaker 5: Uh he does have a fuse and that and if you,
- 26:02Speaker 5: and especially if you mess with a project that he's
- 26:08Speaker 5: working on, that fuse gets shorter.
- 26:11Speaker 3: Right.
- 26:11Speaker 5: He's very professional. He wants to do a good job
- 26:14Speaker 5: and he wants to make sure things go and.
- 26:16Speaker 3: Make good TV. He's good at it too.
- 26:18Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 26:19Speaker 3: Great, when Aaron S did.
- 26:21Speaker 5: This, oh well that was a real Wells anger.
- 26:27Speaker 4: I know, I loved it.
- 26:29Speaker 5: I've seen it, especially when he pushed a box at
- 26:31Speaker 5: Aaron Aaron and said, how about you read it since
- 26:33Speaker 5: you broke it. I was like, Wells is fuming inside
- 26:38Speaker 5: and he wants to blow up. There was no faking it.
- 26:43Speaker 5: He had no clue that was coming. Wells was so mad.
- 26:48Speaker 4: So that and he's so he was so grossed out
- 26:51Speaker 4: by him.
- 26:51Speaker 5: He was like yeah, Wells and and and again. Knowing Wells,
- 26:57Speaker 5: Wells could have absolutely word smashed that dude, like you
- 27:00Speaker 5: don't want to get in an argument when it comes
- 27:02Speaker 5: with what to Wells like back and forth. Yeah, Wells
- 27:06Speaker 5: could have made that dude feel about one cinnamon you're tall,
- 27:10Speaker 5: and like cry his way off the beach.
- 27:12Speaker 3: But he didn't.
- 27:13Speaker 5: And that's why I think we just see Will sit
- 27:14Speaker 5: back and stay quiet because he's like, it's not my
- 27:17Speaker 5: He's good. Again, He's so good at what he does
- 27:20Speaker 5: that he's like, not my place, this is not my
- 27:22Speaker 5: this is not my battle to fight.
- 27:23Speaker 3: This is his battle to fight.
- 27:25Speaker 5: And I'm going to stay quiet because if well started speaking,
- 27:28Speaker 5: it would have gotten really really hilarious because he's good.
- 27:33Speaker 2: We missed out on that, but we still got the
- 27:36Speaker 2: reaction and it was not as fine.
- 27:39Speaker 5: Just that clip of him standing there being like you
- 27:41Speaker 5: read it. I was like, oh goodness, he is about
- 27:44Speaker 5: the pop.
- 27:55Speaker 2: Okay, so the notes they read Cat played Brandon Okay,
- 28:00Speaker 2: like it's kind of a statement we kind of know,
- 28:04Speaker 2: you know, Tanner should watch out for Cat. It sounds
- 28:08Speaker 2: like the same person wrote those two notes.
- 28:10Speaker 4: Who do you think it was.
- 28:14Speaker 3: Braiden?
- 28:16Speaker 4: Okay?
- 28:17Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, I think I think Braiden was all about
- 28:19Speaker 3: the truth thoughts. I think he's.
- 28:22Speaker 2: Also he's already said it to her face pretty much.
- 28:26Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think there's any secret that was Braiden. No,
- 28:29Speaker 5: I think he stood at the bar. I wrote a
- 28:30Speaker 5: couple of truths. And then you know, even Rachel asked
- 28:33Speaker 5: Braiden like did you write that? And I think he's like, yeah,
- 28:36Speaker 5: I wrote that like you and I should make out.
- 28:38Speaker 4: Yeah, totally.
- 28:40Speaker 2: Third note, I don't think Kat is actually looking out
- 28:43Speaker 2: for Jess like she thinks. And I actually interpreted this
- 28:49Speaker 2: the different way.
- 28:50Speaker 4: I guess I wasn't listening very well.
- 28:51Speaker 2: I thought it said I don't think Jess is looking
- 28:55Speaker 2: out for Kat the like is looking out for Cat,
- 28:58Speaker 2: or that there's like actually some un lying tension there,
- 29:01Speaker 2: in which case I was like, yeah, probably because Jess
- 29:05Speaker 2: was interested in Tanner and there was no conversation when
- 29:09Speaker 2: she went out with Tanner.
- 29:11Speaker 5: And they're good friends, right. The reason that matters is
- 29:13Speaker 5: because off the show they are good friends.
- 29:15Speaker 4: Yeah, but what would this mean.
- 29:17Speaker 2: I don't think Kat is actually looking out for Jess
- 29:19Speaker 2: the way she thinks, because I don't think Kat.
- 29:22Speaker 4: Doesn't want to be with Blake.
- 29:25Speaker 5: I wonder if this is just kind of summarizing that
- 29:27Speaker 5: she's not a good friend. Yeah, Like Cass at this
- 29:30Speaker 5: point has had a lot of ideas about what she's
- 29:33Speaker 5: doing right and wrong, and I think most people on
- 29:35Speaker 5: the Beach we've seen have disagreed with her on what
- 29:39Speaker 5: she thinks she's doing right. Yeah, And I think the
- 29:42Speaker 5: Beach is just saying Kat keeps talking about how she's,
- 29:45Speaker 5: you know, maybe a good friend of Jess or all
- 29:47Speaker 5: these things, and maybe we're not not even seeing it,
- 29:50Speaker 5: but she's saying, like, you know, Jess is such a
- 29:52Speaker 5: is a good friend of mine and I'm just trying
- 29:54Speaker 5: to protect her and all the I don't know, and
- 29:56Speaker 5: the Beach is like, no, come on, you're not doing
- 29:58Speaker 5: any of that, Like you're not at actually making the
- 30:02Speaker 5: right decisions right now or you haven't in the past.
- 30:05Speaker 5: But I don't think we have a lot of context
- 30:07Speaker 5: for it, So I do think it's a confusing you
- 30:09Speaker 5: know note if.
- 30:10Speaker 2: We don't, But I do think bottom line is it's this.
- 30:13Speaker 2: This is saying Kat's about herself, like she's going to
- 30:16Speaker 2: want to be with him.
- 30:18Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 30:19Speaker 2: Fourth note, Braiden and Rachel should make out. Well, we
- 30:22Speaker 2: know that Branden wrote this too, and.
- 30:26Speaker 4: Acute I like it.
- 30:28Speaker 2: And that's when Brandon pulls Rachel and the cute kiss happens.
- 30:31Speaker 3: Mm hmm. That's what the whole thing starts.
- 30:34Speaker 2: So maybe Braiden really did write all these notes.
- 30:38Speaker 5: Yeah, and if he did, good for him, Good for him.
- 30:41Speaker 5: And also here's the funny part. Ash you know, Aaron
- 30:44Speaker 5: S's little tantrum didn't lead to anything positive for him.
- 30:49Speaker 3: In fact, it was a weird look.
- 30:50Speaker 5: People were kind of confused, and I think he thought
- 30:53Speaker 5: that if we got to some truth within this box,
- 30:57Speaker 5: then maybe he would get some attention.
- 30:59Speaker 3: Maybe he'd is one.
- 31:00Speaker 5: I don't know, but really none of these things that
- 31:03Speaker 5: he read were even anywhere close to relating to him,
- 31:07Speaker 5: and so he just kind of read them and just
- 31:09Speaker 5: made himself kind of look like a jerk. Yeah, and
- 31:13Speaker 5: that was it, and he just made Wells mad. So
- 31:15Speaker 5: have fun getting good you know, if you do stick around,
- 31:17Speaker 5: have fun getting any good cocktails from here and OWT.
- 31:19Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 31:20Speaker 2: And based on the scene to the next episode, I
- 31:22Speaker 2: did some deducting, and it definitely looks like he's eliminated,
- 31:26Speaker 2: and it looks like Sean's eliminated because there was one
- 31:30Speaker 2: of the guys that was on the chopping block that
- 31:32Speaker 2: ended up making it through, and it probably made it
- 31:35Speaker 2: through by the new girl who's coming down the stairs.
- 31:38Speaker 2: So we get this little scene of Aaron and Sean
- 31:41Speaker 2: praying for a new girl and then all of a
- 31:43Speaker 2: sudden their wish has come true. We got legs walking
- 31:48Speaker 2: down to the beach, but we don't know who it is.
- 31:52Speaker 5: So uh okay, to close up this episode, the nash
- 31:55Speaker 5: who are the guys on the chopping block as this
- 31:58Speaker 5: episode ends?
- 32:00Speaker 2: Okay, so Aaron, I suppose Peter Peter that makes sense? Yeah, okay, yeah, John,
- 32:07Speaker 2: Then I guess John.
- 32:10Speaker 4: Henry, you're right, and.
- 32:11Speaker 3: Then Sean John John B and then Sean Sean.
- 32:19Speaker 5: I didn't say that, okay, Yeah, And and probably Aaron
- 32:23Speaker 5: b So if we throw in yeah, well I.
- 32:26Speaker 4: Wouldn't think so, I wouldn't think so.
- 32:29Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, but yeah, so they'ren't chopping block.
- 32:33Speaker 5: One new person is coming down to the beach, kind
- 32:36Speaker 5: of live left on a cliffhanger. We don't know who's
- 32:38Speaker 5: gonna be around next week, but there are twelve guys
- 32:40Speaker 5: and seven women, so as we note right now, yeah,
- 32:45Speaker 5: there's gonna be five guys going home, but we think
- 32:47Speaker 5: probably only four.
- 32:48Speaker 2: Okay, it's a ton. But we also forgot to talk
- 32:51Speaker 2: about Cat blowing up. Yeah, okay, so Kat blows up
- 32:55Speaker 2: and now I'm not even remembering why because it was
- 32:59Speaker 2: so tense and I know that it was a huge overreaction.
- 33:05Speaker 2: It's oh, it has to do with the whole Tanner thing,
- 33:08Speaker 2: because because of the things in the Secret Box, she
- 33:11Speaker 2: basically talks to Tanner and she's trying to defense herself.
- 33:16Speaker 2: And then Tanner was like, well, you know, Braiden did
- 33:20Speaker 2: tell me about what happened. You know, Braiden didn't feel
- 33:25Speaker 2: blindsided and felt like you did a one to eighty
- 33:28Speaker 2: on him. And then Kat is like, that's his opinion,
- 33:32Speaker 2: but it's totally false. And then Tanner says that he
- 33:36Speaker 2: and Kat are probably similar in a current, similar situation
- 33:41Speaker 2: than she was with Braiden before he walked down. So
- 33:43Speaker 2: I think he's just saying like, okay, like I shouldn't
- 33:46Speaker 2: feel secure, even if I do kind of feel secure,
- 33:49Speaker 2: And now.
- 33:50Speaker 4: She faks out.
- 33:52Speaker 2: If this guy heard her reaction, there's no way that
- 33:59Speaker 2: he'd want to be with her anymore. And people were
- 34:01Speaker 2: hearing her reaction, I think that they did dub it
- 34:04Speaker 2: over a little bit, so it sounded clear to everybody
- 34:07Speaker 2: down the beach than it actually was. They probably just
- 34:10Speaker 2: heard her like the sounds of screaming, yelling, not like
- 34:14Speaker 2: the actual words.
- 34:15Speaker 4: But this girl is off for Rocker.
- 34:19Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, I think she's panicking out a bit one.
- 34:22Speaker 2: Second, and she should be panicking because she's the one
- 34:26Speaker 2: with the rose right now. Just just show Tanner that
- 34:30Speaker 2: it's not the truth of the matter.
- 34:33Speaker 5: Yeah, And I mean I think she's panicking out a
- 34:36Speaker 5: bit because I think she feels misunderstood. And I think
- 34:39Speaker 5: at this point she's starting to be confused at why
- 34:41Speaker 5: everybody else is misunderstanding her intentions, you know, and why
- 34:46Speaker 5: and what she's done that's so wrong, and so it's
- 34:49Speaker 5: hard probably to process for her right now, why everybody
- 34:53Speaker 5: seems against her and they do seem against her, and
- 34:55Speaker 5: I get that maybe that's causing some conflict inside of
- 34:59Speaker 5: her self. And then she's trying to protect herself, defend
- 35:03Speaker 5: herself by you know, reacting the way she is.
- 35:06Speaker 4: Yeah, that's so true.
- 35:08Speaker 2: All right, Well that is the episode of Paradise, episode four.
- 35:14Speaker 2: Next week we see that it's Kat's birthday and they
- 35:18Speaker 2: must ruin someone on every Paradise birthday every year. Yeah,
- 35:22Speaker 2: thinks everybody must go out, everybody's significant other must go
- 35:28Speaker 2: out with somebody else on their birthdays.
- 35:31Speaker 5: Here's my closing comment. They don't have to, and yet
- 35:35Speaker 5: it feels like every season they do.
- 35:37Speaker 4: It's manipulated.
- 35:38Speaker 2: It's in the way that they're like, ah, Cat's birthday,
- 35:41Speaker 2: let's make sure that's the day that so and so
- 35:44Speaker 2: comes down.
- 35:46Speaker 5: So and so comes down. Well, we're looking forward to
- 35:48Speaker 5: the next episode of Paradise. We're going to continue to
- 35:50Speaker 5: break it down, We're going to continue to kind of
- 35:52Speaker 5: shure up some of these storylines. We're getting to the
- 35:55Speaker 5: point in the season where the couples are going to
- 35:56Speaker 5: get stronger and we're gonna start really recognizing the people
- 36:00Speaker 5: that are in relationship. I think as of right now,
- 36:02Speaker 5: it feels like a lot of chaos and a lot
- 36:03Speaker 5: of stealing and taking, and I do think we're going
- 36:06Speaker 5: to get some building upon some of the relationships we've
- 36:08Speaker 5: already seen.
- 36:09Speaker 3: I'm excited for that. But until next week, I've been.
