• 0:09
  Speaker 2: talking about of course Farmer Wants a Wife with the
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: producer to the stars, the lovely and talented Heather Munday.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Hi, Heather, Hi, Bob. I'm excited about today.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: I am too, very excited because we have a very
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: special guest.
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: And I'm super excited about this because she has been
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: a lightning rod this season, to say the least.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: She's had a lot of attention, deservedly, so I think
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: she created a bunch of interesting moments.
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: We have a lot to get into with her, that's
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: for sure. So yes, I mean she's got a pageant past,
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: she's a personal trainer, and she's a bit of a paparazzi.
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: You know, like what I did there?
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: I do like that. Yeah, she was very adept with
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: the camera.
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, obviously we are talking about Carson Hughes from this season.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: I think we should bring her in.
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: Carson, HYI, Hi, We're so excited to chat with you.
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: I'm excited to be here.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: So what an experience, h I mean you had to
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: do this first of all? Okay, Carson, because you're young,
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: you might not know who I am. So I was
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: one of the original Bachelor's Okay, dating way back in
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: the day. I was on Trista's season of the Bacherette,
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: and then they made me the Bachelor right after then.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: So this goes back before you were born. But I
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: will tell you that we had no shortage of moments
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: like some of the ones that you experienced on your show.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: And I was very excited.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Both Heather and I both were very excited to watch
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: this season and to get to know you and to
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: kind of see the ebbs and flows of what you
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: went through.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, first of all, I will tell.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: You I feel like I have a I feel like
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: you and I would be buddies. You bust out the camera.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: It's adorable. You take it pictures. You know you're doing
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: it thing. I mean, Heather said, okay, if I just
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: get ready to do it. I know, Bob, the whole
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: litany of things we wanted to ask you, But I said,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: what a brilliant tactical move to throw those pictures up on.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: The refrigerator, right so when everyone else comes over, it's like,
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: welcome to our home.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: That's how I saw, and I thought it was brilliant
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: adorable as well. I mean the pictures were cute. Heather's like, no,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: I don't think so. I don't think that's the case.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Will you please solve this burning question for us. I
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: think it may have started off just as or whatever,
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: but it was a brilliant move.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: You got under some people's skin with that move, and
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: I liked it. Did you do it intentionally or was
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: it more just being in the moment.
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: I cannot take credit for that move, unfortunately, no.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: But did some producers perhaps encourage you to throw those
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: pictures up on the fridge?
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: I can tell you this. I saw them for the
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: first time when the girls saw them as well.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: Okay, this kind of goes back to what I said,
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: which was when those girls first went into the house,
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: they were told to look around real hard. I think,
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: because first thing I do is I don't, you know,
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: look at the fridge when I walk in, and I'm
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: looking at my new digs.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: But that's just me.
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: Okay, that's a really good insight that we're reading between
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: the lines from that. Like Bob kind of mentioned, you
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: were the first one to get a solo date with
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: Farmer Braiden, which, in a lot of ways I thought
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: was a big telling moment, right because on that first
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: night the farmers had to meet so many women that
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: it's almost like the first impression rose on The Bachelor
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: if you get invited back to the farm first.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: We see a lot of parallels with that.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: And I wanted to know, because you also got the
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: first kiss with farmer Braiden, what would you rate.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: His kissing skills on a scale of one to ten.
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: Okay, we did not actually kiss, so it was a
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: cheek action. It was a cheek actions.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: It's hard, yeah with the cover, Okay.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Yes, it throws off our death perception.
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: M I know looking at the pictures too, I'm sure
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: the girls seeing that on a fridge were like, did
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: they kiss? Did they not? I can say right now
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: we did not kiss.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: Okay, So the fridge though moment was a lot of
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: tension in the house. I think that was what started things.
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: And we'll get into kind of you know, what the
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: women were alluding to later on when it comes to
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: you and things that happened off camera. But I want
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: to know from your perspective, who do you think was
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: the most calculated one in the house.
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: Oh gosh, that throws people under the bus. Oh, gosh, okay,
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: I felt like that is such like a I think
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: we all I will say this, we all have calculated moments,
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: myself included. I will one hundred percent say that you
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: are four or five girls all dating the same person,
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: and you're trying to think like, how can I make
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: sure that he still sees me in this moment? And
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: so with that, I don't think that there's anybody that
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: is I would say one hundred percent more calculated than
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: anyone else. I think we all had our different versions
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: of calculations and what we were doing.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Bob, would you say that was a perfect pageant answer?
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Just honestly that's I think that goes the way along
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: with I wish for world peace exactly for you know,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: childhood obesity to be eradicated from the planet.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: I think it goes along with all that.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: Carson, we're pulling your leg. We love that you are
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: a proud pageant girl. Why don't we just rewind a
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: little bit, Miss Texas exactly, why don't we rewind and
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: you tell us a little bit about how you got
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: into pageants, why you got into pageants, because I think
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: that is a through line too with your connection with
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: the other women in the house.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: So a lot of people don't know this, but I
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: actually got into pageantry because I did not come from
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: a family where we had the funds for me to
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: go to college, and so I did it for scholarship money,
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: and so I was able to pay off all my
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: student debts, all my student loans. So that was a blessing.
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: I'm still currently going through college even at you know,
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: twenty six years old, and that's just a fun thing.
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: But I've told myself, I'm not going to allow myself
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: to be in debt for something that, you know, when
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: I can go through pageants and maybe make some money
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: with it.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: Smart, that's awesome, Yeah, very smart.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: What were you studying in school?
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so I originally started out for architectural engineering. So
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: my dad was a general contractor and so you know,
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: I was kind of always in that construction realm of things.
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: But I loved knowing, like the design of buildings. I
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: was big into legos when I was a kid, and
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: so I just want to do that for a living.
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: And so yeah, that's what I went for. But I
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: have previously, I mean, like I would aheadn't swapped that
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: I realized maybe that's not the best thing for me.
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: And I'm actually going back in for nursing because that's
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: my that's like my own time go is anything in
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: the healthcare industry. I'm a personal trainer right now. So yeah,
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: I love it.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: Very cool, that's awesome. I like both of those items.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: I like both of those fields of study.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, I was a telecommunications major, and you know,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: a lot of people don't realize that.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: But I use my degree every day, right, Heather.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Definitely, you do? You do.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: I'm a college drop out. I went for journalism school.
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: Nobody cares, but I still feel like I use what
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: I learned in those four years that I was in
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: school somewhat like.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it. I love it all right.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: So here's one of my questions that I think is,
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: did you feel like there was at one point in
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: the show, and I don't want to skip around too much,
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: but there was at one point in the show where
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: you kind of brought it up that this experience was
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: bringing back some flashbacks for you from your pageant days,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: and it was a little bit around. I think some
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: of the cattiness potentially that I guess it could be
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: labeled that or maybe that you didn't like that you
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: kind of had a little bit of a target on your.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: Back, and so what did you mean by that?
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Like, what was it primarily that made you feel that
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: way that it was one of those things where you
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: were kind of like, I've been here before, I'm not
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: doing this again, you know, I'm out.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: I think it was one of those things that things
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: can be said and they can be misconstrued very easily,
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: especially when tensions are high. And so with that for
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: somebody not to come to you and say, hey, I
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: need a little bit more clarification on this, like you
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: said this, I took it this way. Is this correct?
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: No one. No one wanted to do that. Instead, they
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: kind of wanted to talk amongst themselves and in that group.
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: And with that, that's that's fun. You know, you handle
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: however you need to handle things. But for me, it's
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: like I would have gladly given an explanation. I would
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: have gladly talked through that. And I will say we
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: did get to that point, but I did not know
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: that things were being said until I was actually sitting
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: in that chair and they filmed my reaction to it.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: All, which was which was the laugh I think, right,
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: which was the Yes, it was.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: A very uncomfy laugh.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: It was you could tell you something was going to happen.
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I was like, what is going on right now?
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: So yeah, that was one of those things. And I
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: made it very clear to you to these girls, I
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: we'll never say anything on camera bad about somebody else
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: in those one on one interviews because number one, I'm
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: gonna speak to you about it first. I want to
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: clear that up. I'm somebody I hate that type of
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: tension and that type of conflict, So it's like for me,
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna come to you first. I'm gonna figure it out.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: Sometimes I may not always have the best way of
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: explaining things in the moment, but I'd rather try and
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: explain it than to sit on it and let it
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: ste and make it angryer or angry about something.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: Worse and worse.
• 9:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, going back to Bob's question, he brought up the
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: pageant past. You also said that your pageant pass got
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: so bad with whatever this was that you actually.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Had to move states. Yeah that was that, Like, yeah,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: that's all It's crazy.
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: I mean, yet again, I competed in Tennessee, so that's
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: where I was born and raised. Is the Nashville, Tennessee area.
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: I competed in the Miss Tennessee pageants, and with that
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: I had some girls that I didn't realize we're saying
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: things until I had already competed in the pageant. Didn't realize,
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: you know, any of this went on. Nobody came up
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: between Nobody talk to me about it. What's oddly like
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: oddly funny is I never really spoke to this girl,
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: so I had no clue that she would even be
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: somebody that would have said anything. And yet again, it
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: was one of those things that people didn't they didn't
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: want to hear my side of the story. They just
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: wanted to go with it and see how far they
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: could get to make sure that I wasn't somebody that
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: I would say placed or you know, had attention on
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: them for a positive reason.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's like one of the bad raps that I
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: think a pageant could possibly have, right, is that there's
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: this there's this kind of behind the scenes I don't know.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, I my only you know, affiliation with pageantry
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: is is you know, miscongeniality. Sorry book, And I really
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: felt like Miss Congeniality too gave me such.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: A more in depth vision of that world.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: But no, it is kind of curious because you know,
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure are you still watching the show now
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: that you've left the show, or were you just kind
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: of like I'm done.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: I'm still watching it.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: I'm so excited for tomorrow.
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: Are you kidding me?
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: Okay, Okay, you know there's some of that still happening, right, Yeah, no, absolutely,
• 11:26
  Speaker 7: But you know, for me, it's one of those things
• 11:27
  Speaker 7: that I wish these girls nothing but the best, and
• 11:29
  Speaker 7: I want to watch it play out for them and
• 11:31
  Speaker 7: you know, see all their their has in it, so
• 11:34
  Speaker 7: I'm I'm cheering them on every step of the way.
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: So of course I'm watching.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: That's awesome. Do they have a reunion show in the mix?
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Like do they get you all back together again or not?
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: I wish.
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: I feel like that would be so much fun, you know,
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: because it's like I don't even know how it ended.
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: I don't know anything. So I'm getting to watch it
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: and kind of be part of the crowd again and
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: see because yeah I don't I don't have any insight
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: to what actually takes place.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: I think I see the name Molly Walker on my screen.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: I just want to say it for the record, Molly Walker,
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: I think we should do a reunion podcast of all
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: the girls before the finale, just put it out there,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: because I think we could really handle this, We could
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: really help navigate this and bring it a big put
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: a big bow on it.
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, what do you think, super Producer?
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: Yes, Molly, I think we're definitely going to be speaking
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: to the farmers and their final picks and some more women,
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: you know, throughout this season as we're watching, you know,
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: some of the ones that really stick out to us especially,
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: and that's why we're starting with carsonon because she really
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: did make an impression on us when we were watching.
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: And I think, Bob, the most burning question that you
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: and I both have and have said while recapping this
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: is we need to know what did you say off
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: camera that the women went and alluded to to farmer Braden.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a really good question. I'm not gonna lie.
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: I would love to know the answer to that too.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: Stop. You don't know either.
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: You don't know what they could have possibly pulled at
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: to say that you had the uncorrect motives for being
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: on the show. I mean, it's a direct correlation to
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: your character. And they said specifically that you said poor
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: things about Farmer Braiden himself.
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna be honest. My jaw was on the
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: ground when I heard that. I was I was sitting
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: there and I was like, oh, out of all the
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: things I could conjure up, I'm just like, there's no way,
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: because I can tell you right now there is nothing
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: but just like joy and excitement and just so much fun.
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: When I think of Farmer Braiden, there was no negatives
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: for me to ever talk about him like.
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: Ever, you were pretty shook at the fact that the
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: farm was really isolated in a way when Farmer Braiden
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: told you that if you wanted to go get butter,
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: it was gonna be a thirty minute drive to town.
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: Could there been any confusion or you know, any content
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: text or something missing from a conversation about being way
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: out secluded if you were to live there and maybe
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: not being familiar with that or super interested in that,
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: that the women could have taken wrong.
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: So I will say this, when we were in the
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: barn before we all got picked and taken back, I
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: had my time with Branden, and I came back and
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: I was kind of talking with the girls and well,
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: how do you think it went? How do you think went?
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: And I told him I was like, I genuinely don't know.
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: I'm blacked out. I have no clue what happened in
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: that moment. And I was like, but I feel like
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: I was a little bit commanding and a little bit
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: overbearing in that moment, and so I felt that I
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: was like, this man is thinking that I'm I'm crazy,
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: like I'm trying to take control, and I was not
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: trying to take control. I'm just one of those people
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: that it's like, for instance, I brought the camera out
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: and we took the picture on our date and he
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: said it behind the rock, and then we just never
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: looked at again. And I was like, June, why don't
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: you look at the picture? I was like, going a picture,
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: And I was like, you can put in your pocket,
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: you can put it right.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: There, you can keep it. Yeah. Yeah.
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: And so it was one of those things that for
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: that alone, I was like, maybe I was a little
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: too pushy with some things I don't know. And so
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: I told the girls that, and so I think for
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: them them hearing my concerns and being like, oh, Carson's
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: Carson may not make it bluh blah blah, and then
• 15:17
  Speaker 5: getting picked for the first date. That was probably in
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: their mind like is this girl just fibbing? Is she
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: you know? But that's genuinely how I felt. I was like,
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: I think I just scared this poor guy away. But yeah,
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: so maybe that was it. Maybe they were like, oh,
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: you know, she doesn't tell you the truth. But that
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: was my honest feelings towards it.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: So never never a moment then, never like even a
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: moment of tension between you and the other girls.
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: That okay, now, that would I would say, that would
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: be a little bit going for at all. I can
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: drill that with that. I did. There were a couple things,
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: but again they were off camera. They were things that
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: I would say again, it was just taken it away
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: that I don't think anybody would have expected it to
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: be taken in that way. There was a situation where
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: the dog ate a grape and I don't know if
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: you guys know about dogs and.
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: Grapes not supposed to eat.
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: No, no, yes, And it does not matter how big
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: they are, it does not matter anything. Well, I had
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: just gone through something.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: I did not know this information, and I'm actually shook
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: it because I gave my puppy a grape last week.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I didn't know. I'm not supposed.
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's extremeingly toxic, like it like one break can
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: kill a dog.
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: You're lucky to be alive, Percy. Wow, Yes, guys, I've
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: actually shook. He kept spitting it out, and I kept
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: being like.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, eat it, eat it.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: Is that why you followed up with a Snickers bar
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: for him? Because you know chocolate's no good either.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: I mean I gave him a whole thing at chocolate
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: right after.
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry to interrupt, never knew you're not supposed to
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: give a dog grapes.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Continue continue. So the dog ate a grape.
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: The dog ate a grape, and I was asked. They
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: were like, do you think it's okay that bogie ate
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: a grape? But I was like no, I was like,
• 17:03
  Speaker 5: that is so not okay. Well, they don't realize my
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: experience with this. I just spent just a few weeks ago,
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: I would say, an entire five days in an er
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: with my dog who had eaten We didn't even know
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: if he ate one grape or four grapes. There was
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: a grape stem with a bag that was ripped open
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: and so I had spent that time with him and
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: my dogs or my babies, like I love them more
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: than life, and so coming to that close of like
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: in my mind a near death experience with my puppy,
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: I didn't want anybody else to be in that situation,
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: so I did. I was like, oh gosh, no, I
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: was like, that's not okay, Like we need to get
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: somebody right now, We need hydroperoxide, we need to make
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: sure that he throws up because we don't know how
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: that will react in bogie system. And I think in
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: that moment it was just a very harsh reaction of like, no,
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: he's not okay, and so the individual thought, you know,
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: like I was blaming them. There was no blame at all.
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: I know it was an accident. But for me, it's
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: like I want to make sure Brandon's dog's okay. Number
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: One in because I just had that reaction of like
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: I need to go in and I need to save
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: this dog's life because.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: I just don't know my dog. So right, big dog
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: or small dog?
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: What do you have?
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: Big dogs are small dogs?
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: I have big dogs. I have three. So yes, it's
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: a Gold Retriever German Shepherd and then like a husky
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: German shepherd mix.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: Awesome.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Gotta love those big dogs, you know. And I like
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: the small dogs too, how there I do, But you
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: got to love those big dogs.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Oh yes, I am.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: Honestly, this is a full blown lesson for me because
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: I had no idea and I literally never feed him
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: scraps and I gave him a grape and I could
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: have killed him.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I have no I had no idea, no idea. He's kicking,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: he's breathing.
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: Now, it's okay, it's right.
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure it's I'm sure it's already, you know,
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: out in your yard.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: I honestly think I had to. I kept encouraging him,
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: and I think I just gave up. I don't even
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: know if he actually fully ate it. But anyways, anyways,
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: so that was the moment that possibly created some tension
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: between you and the women.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: Got it.
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: I want to go to your exit conversation with Farmer Braden,
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: because you decided a lot.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Like some other women that we've seen on the show.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: A lot of women have decided to leave this experience
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: on their eliminate eliminate, which we're all for it. You know,
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: take ownership of your situation and if you're not feeling it,
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: you're not feeling it. But in your exit conversation with
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: Farmer Braiden, I thought that you used very specific language
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: when you were speaking to him, because you said that
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: you couldn't come back after the comments that the women
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: had made about you.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: So I want to know, did you mean come.
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: Back in the sense that you and Farmer Braden couldn't
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: move past this or build upon this situation in your relationship,
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: or did you mean come back in the sense of
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: with the audience that you could already foresee how this
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: was being planted and painted for your image on the show.
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: I think it's a little bit of both, but there
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: is a heavier way with Brandon, and I said in
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: my little exit interview, I talked about how, you know,
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: there were those winks and there were those moments with
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: him that you could really tell like he was still
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: connected and he was still wanting to pursue and then
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: after the horse race, it was no longer there. And
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: that was also the same time when I ended up
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: finding out like I thought, he came over to me
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: to talk to me because he wanted to and like
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: that was just him like wanting to form a connection.
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: I did not realize that the girls had talked to
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: him yet, and so kind of hearing that and hearing
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: you know, the whole reason why you came up to
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: me was because you were wanting to settle something rather
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: than to like really see how I was doing and
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: go from there. And that kind of opened my eyes
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: to some things. I'm like, Okay, I'm not sure that
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: it's even worth it to be another playing card in
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: the deck, because at this point it's like, I'm if
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: I'm not getting the same type of pursuit that I
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: had in the beginning. Are you ever going to come
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: back to that, you know? And so it's very easy
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: for me to be like, let me make this choice simple,
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: Like if you're already given some other girls the as
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: go for them, you know, it's like, this is your
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: ability to find your future person. I want you to
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: have the best chance of that. And so if I
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: know it's not me, I'll let you pick whoever you need.
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: I can go home to my doggies if.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: You've given a little bit of a fight and said
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: like I don't care what they say, or please don't go.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: I want you to stay. Do you think you would
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: have in that moment or was your mind pretty much
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: made up?
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: I mean, intentionality can definitely change things. Someone's intentions and
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: where they are willing to put effort, that can definitely
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: change things. But you know, in the at the end
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: of the day, I'm home and I'm I'm living my
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: best life. So I think it worked out. Exist it
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: should have worked out.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: That's good.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: I love that one.
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: I have one more question for you.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: So when you watch the show back now, like you've
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: been watching along along with everyone else, right, and you
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: see all of these farmers who I happened to like,
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: all of these guys, and I think they did a
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: great job casting the show with the ladies too, And
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: when you watch back, do you, obviously, now, especially with
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: you know, hindsight, being twenty twenty year home already, you're
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: with your dogs, you're happy when you see these other
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: relationships playing out, do you see yourself possibly having a
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: better mash potentially with one of the other farmers or
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: do you you know, are you sitting there watching and going,
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: oh my god, look at that guy's mustache, you know, like, are.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: You thinking about that? Yeah?
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: Is that just me?
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: Because Heather is very, very into fire I.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: Got hard eyes for farmer Brett for sure.
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: But that's a good question, because, yeah, do you wish
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: to go off of what Bob said. Do you wish
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: you kind of pulled a Lauren and switched farmers if
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: you had, now that you've seen their personality he's playing
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: out on camera.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: Oh gosh.
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: That that's a hard question because I honestly don't know
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: how much I'm allowed to share in this, the selection
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: process and things. But you know, we got we got
• 23:13
  Speaker 5: little snippets of them that, you know, we could we
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: could rank our farmers from And I would have never
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: guessed that I would have been in Illinois, but I was.
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: And you know, I think there's always reasons for things
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: in life, and that for me, like maybe this was
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: this was a reason for me to experience this because
• 23:32
  Speaker 5: I wasn't meant to be a farmer.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: I really don't know.
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: So that's an interesting answer, interesting answer, Bob.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: I want to know.
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: Carson is saying she's living her best life back at home.
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: Does that mean that you're dating I'm going to take
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: that long pause as a yes, Bob, I don't know.
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: That she and when it went when it goes up
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: in octave like that. I think that means something for sure.
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: Yes, No, I can one hundred percent say that, Yes
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: I am dating and I am not dating a farmer,
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: but I am dating somebody that I will say is
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: quite dreamy and everything that I would ever want said.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: Love that for you.
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: It goes back to my theory, Bob, which I tell
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: a lot of people because Carson I previously have cast
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: a lot of dating shows specifically, and I've always said
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: to people when they're in the sign up process that like, hey,
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: the odds might not be in your favor to actually
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: find love on camera, but I can pretty much guarantee
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: that if you use the experience to put out to
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: the world on a large platform who you are, love
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: will walk into your life pretty close after being on
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: the show. And so, guys, this is living proof. This
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: is Carson saying she's found somebody dreamy after being on
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: season four.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: A farmer wants a wife.
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: So deservedly, so too exactly deserve it for you.
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: Yes, thank you.
• 25:02

• 25:06
