• 0:31
  Speaker 4: But I'm excited much.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah.

  Speaker 3: In fact, I was curious the whole time. I was like,
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: is am I going to recognize her? And then I
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: saw her, I'm like, oh, hey, there she is. And
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: then but you know what, if this is any indication,
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: you know a lot of times in the first couple
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: episodes from our Bachelor era, the people who don't make
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: a huge splash in the first two episodes are around
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: later in the season. So it could be the case.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: It could be the case. Who knows, it could be.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: So sorry, it's it's producer Heather jumping in here because
• 1:03

  Speaker 5: because this is a good one.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, you and I have a little
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: bit of experience with this show. You know, we recapped
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: a couple episodes in the past. Last season one was
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: literally a disaster in the making while I was hosting
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: another event in the city of New York, of course,
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: where I got run out of a couple of different
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: conference rooms with our cast members on the phone.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: It was bananas.
• 1:48
  Speaker 6: Let me just set the stage.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: It was maybe one of the most awkward interviews I've
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: ever produced, and not to Bob's fault at all. It
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: was out of his control. But basically he was interviewing
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: Farmer Matt and Chelsea from season three for I Do
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: Part two, and in the midst of the interview, I've
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: never seen this happen before.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: I've never had it happen before.
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: Bob was in a conference room and somebody from the
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: hotel staff came in and said what are you doing
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: in here? And he was like, I'm in the middle
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: of an interview, and they were like, and so.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I got kicked out.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: He gets kicked out of this room. And he's literally like,
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: I am on camera right now doing an interview. And
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: the guy was like, yeah, I don't care, like get
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: out of this room.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: So it's insane. So Bob is like, I'm so sorry,
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: I'm getting kicked out. So Bob leaves and then you
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: got into.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: And find another room.
• 2:43
  Speaker 6: You found another room, and we hopped on again, and
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: within minutes.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: The same person that kicked you out of the first
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: room came and found you and said, what are you
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: doing in here?
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: Get out now.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: I claimed he was the owner of the hotel, by
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: the way, which I'm like, I'm like, that is absolutely
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: impossible that you are the owner.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: You are you are Thomas J. Marriott. I was like,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: are you kidding me? I'm like, that is not the case, sir.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: It was so insane, and Bob felt so horrible.
• 3:14
  Speaker 6: It had nothing to do with him.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: I mean, he had a room at this hotel and
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: they were treating him like he had just walked in
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: off the street, like that's just it.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: I had a I had a corner suite, yes, and
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: they hadn't had my room ready for me as they
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: were supposed to.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: So I'm trying to explain to the guy. I'm like, well, look,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Supposed to be doing this in my suite, but you
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: guys don't have it ready for me yet. And so
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: they had told me I could utilize this space. And
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: now you're coming in and you're upset. And now, if
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: you recall, I was also there to do it Today's
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Show thing, and I'm like, so I decided to swing
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: the stick. I'm like, not only am I doing an
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: iHeart event right now, I'm also doing a Today's Show segment.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: And You're all, You're gonna be all over the news, bro,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: I'm like, you're just going to be everywhere. This is fantastic, great,
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: great press for you. I'll press is good press. I
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: suppose you should have.
• 3:58
  Speaker 6: Said I'm a little bit famous.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: You might not know this, but I am semi famous.
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: I am seven.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: I like them both.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: I'm a little bit famous.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: I think I like semi now that I'm thinking about.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: It was just hilarious and Bob handled it with so
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: much grace, And if anybody wants to go back and
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: listen to that episode, it's a literal recording of a.
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: Crash, Yes, a train wreck.
• 4:22
  Speaker 7: It was.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: It was so funny, but Bob handled it so great
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: and we were able to get Farmer Matt and Chelsea
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: back on and finish the interview properly.
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: But we of course kept all of that in of Bob.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: Getting kicked out of the room with all the microphones,
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: and it was hilarious.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, and ps to be fair, my wife loves
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: saying this, like, I don't encounter in my whole life,
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: and I'm old right, I haven't encountered too many people
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: not just being willing to.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Do what I want.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: So if I'm like, you know, do you mind if
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: I just stay in here for another fifteen minutes, They're
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: always like, okay, because I'm nice.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: I was just about to say, Bob Guinea's got a
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: lot of charm and charisma. He is very He's very
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: friendly and jovial, and I swear, I swear I said
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: this to you, Bob. When we were in Tahoe, Bob
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: lost his luggage on the way to our Tahoe trips,
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: had absolutely no clothes, had to at one point had
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: to rent a car and drive himself to Tahoe because
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: of the flight issues we were having.
• 5:22
  Speaker 6: You would never know.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: This guy joins the party, is so happy to be here,
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: is so stoked, and I'm like, what you don't have luggage?
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: What you had to drive yourself. It was actually an
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: insane planes, trains and automobiles, and you would just never
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: know because Bob is so nice and cordial to everybody.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: So it is hilarious that this guy was being so
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: rude to you that day because.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: I didn't know what to do. I just am so
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: not used to it. I was like so caught off guard.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: Yes, so hilarious. But anyways, I wanted to know other
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: than that last season that we kind of dabbled in.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: I mean, I watched the whole thing, but what is
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: your background when it comes to Farmer Wants a Wife?
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: Because this show was on for a really long time,
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: went off the air for a bit, and then I
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: believe came back and it did different iteration on a Fox.
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: So like, what is your experience with this show?
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: So I only watched that season, I only watched the
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: episodes that we covered on the show, but I found
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: myself really liking the cast, and so it was one
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: of those things where I was hopeful, right, I was
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: really hopeful for them, and I was really excited.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, and then what like you talk about Matt
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: and Chelsea.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: I kind of knew they I didn't see that connection
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: working out, but I thought they were individually very nice people.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: And I was like, she seemed a little too polished.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: He seemed a little too you know, country, but he
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: wasn't really country enough, you know, there there was a
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: lot going on there.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: He's a little reserved. He's a very nice guy.
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: I've done quite a few interviews with him.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Very nice guys and some handsome, charming, you know whatever.
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: Was fine guys. He's I saw him last month and
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: he is dating. That's as much as he would say, yeah,
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: but he's doing just fine.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: What I think we should set up for the listeners
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: is if they haven't seen this show that it revolves around.
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: Last season, we had four Farmers.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: This season, we only have three, which I think is
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: kind of better because I felt, as somebody who watched
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: last season, I felt like it's it's really hard when
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: there's multiple leads on a show.
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: I've done it.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: I've done several dating shows like this in my career,
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: and it's really it's hard to do the one lead,
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: which I've said on this pod is a thing of
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: the past. Nobody does the format that the Bachelor Bachelorette
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: does anymore because you're really putting all your eggs in
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: one basket to you know, that make that one person
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: carry a show.
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: So nobody does that anymore.
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: Everybody has really gone to this montage of nobody's really
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: the vocal multiple people coming in. You have a lot
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: maybe a cast of twelve to fifteen that you're kind
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: of following on a journey of finding love. But this
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: format of three leads, multiple women trying to date each one.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: I did a show like this for Hulu. I did
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: anybody who's listened, I've done F Boy Island F Girl Island,
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: which we're also both of the same kind of format.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: So it's hard because there's a lot of people still
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: on the show.
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: It's really invested in exactly, so you're.
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: Not really going to get locked in until we get
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: further into the show. But what I do like about
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: this show is so we have three farmers, we have
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: each of them has their own kind of group of
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: girls that are there to date them.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Which they pre screened, right, so they they did have
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: the opportunity, at least from the way they did the
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: setup of the show, that they kind of pre screened
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: and selected these nine.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: So I'll burst the bubble on that and I'll say
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: that that is not true and that's not how this works.
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: Unfortunately or fortunately, you.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: Know, maybe they asked them which girls they found attractive.
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: But I'm here to say that on any show that
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: I've ever worked on, the talent does not get to
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: choose from the pool, not this early on. You get
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: to make those decisions on who you want to bring
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: back to the farm in the case of this show,
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: but you're not choosing which girls are for you. And
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: the reason for that is because you would not choose
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: people that bring the drama or TV all that you
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: know are different and outside of your type. Because that's
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: the other thing is part of these experiences is to
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: date differently than you do.
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: Maybe in the real world. You know this first hand, Bob.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: I mean, the point is if it's not working out
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: in the real world for you and you're just dating
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: the same kind of people all the time, this is
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: your chance to expand and try different things for once
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: in your life. So yeah, so the producers choose your
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: group of women that are there for you, and you
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: can tell because we've got, you know, farmer Brett. He
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: is our oldest farmer this season, and all of the
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: women that were in the older age category were there
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: for him, Brett with him and Brett's farm.
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: So you know.
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: So that's strategically done by the casting team and by
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: the producers. But it's cute that they set it up
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: being like, oh, these guys chose these girls, and these
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: girls chose these guys.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: Oh no, that's not how it works.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: But it's fine, But Bob, I'll let you take it
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: away and we can get into kind of the rundown
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: of how the episode started.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah for sure.
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean it was a great first of all,
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: Like I said to you before, I found myself smiling
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: a lot during this show. Right, we got three three
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: farmers coming on. We've got let's see Brett, Brayden and
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: is it Sean yep? Yeah, Brett, Braiden and Sean and
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: they come on and they are you know, they do
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: a little a little spiel about each guy. We get
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: to know him a little figure out who these guys are, right,
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: And it's all seemingly really.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Nice guys, good looking guys.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: And I think one of the one of the criticisms
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: of the show previously was that the guys weren't really farmers.
• 11:11
  Speaker 8: I remember that, and I think we see that again
• 11:16
  Speaker 8: a little bit on this season.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, it was.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: A broadbrush when they say far.
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: Listen, it's did you grow up on a farm?
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: Do you live near a farm?
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Have you ever eaten food that came from a farm? Well, hey,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: then you're in right.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: Do you look good in the cowboy hat? I think
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: that the guys, I think if you really narrowed it
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: down to guys that are a little bit, let's i'll
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: just call it out. So farmer Branden is a fifth
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: generation farmer. Farms soybeans and corn on his farm out
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: in Homer, Illinois. That guy's a farmer, he really. I
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: spent time with these farmers last month.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: I'll get into that very nice.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: I got to meet all of them, and yeah, that
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: guy is a farmer.
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: Now, what they.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: Didn't show in this first episode, and I think that
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: they will get into later, is he also has a
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: very he's musically inclined, and he has a passion for
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: music country music, and he's a singer songwriter in his area.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: So they didn't highlight any of that in his background package,
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: but it's in his show bios. It's in his show bio. Yeah,
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: and so we'll end up seeing it. But before we
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: get into Farmer Sean and Farmer Brett, Kimberly Williams.
• 12:37
  Speaker 6: Paisley is the host of this show.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Yes, I used to.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: Love her, oh my gosh, when she was doing a
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: lot of acting. I used to love her.
• 12:44
  Speaker 6: Oh my gosh.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: I mean I think she still does act.
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: The bride doesn't love that movie. I feel like she
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: They're gonna come for me now that I didn't look
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: into this.
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: But I feel like she does TV movies still, maybe
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: in that hallmark kind of genre. But what is really
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: interesting is what she says when she comes out to
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: meet the women, and she says, you know, even though
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: this is unconventional.
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: That this show actually works.
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: And she says the show has resulted in over two
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: hundred and fifty marriages and over five hundred children worldwide.
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: So that is a nutso stat to have.
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: And that is because obviously she's not referring to farmer
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: wants a wife. US. She's referring to the fact that
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: this show airs worldwide and in different countries and different
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: you know, they might not use the term farmer wants
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: a Wife in other countries.
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: It might the show might be called something else.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: They do that from time to time, just based off
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: the country that it's airing in, what would resonate best
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: with the audience. But clearly it's it's, you know, a
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: working man type of hard working man kind of show
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: where women, you know, city.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Me like a hard working, you know, gritty guy.
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: Yes, exactly, exactly. But I thought that was a crazy stat.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: And you know, I know that the Bachelor franchise obviously
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: has aired all over the world in different countries. Now
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: I don't know where it currently airs, but it would
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: be so interesting to know the stat from that, because
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: we already know that Paradise has produced so many success
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: stories from the show, probably more so than the actual
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: Bachelor and Bachelorette, just because your stats are you know,
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: you're more attuned to getting a match on Paradise where
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: you're meeting multiple people than you are in in the
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: Bachelor Bachelorette situation. So Anyways, I thought that was just
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: really interesting that they pointed that out right up top,
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: and obviously that got the girls really hyped. Tell me about, well,
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: your thoughts on Farmer Sean, who is the next one
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: that we kind of sean?
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: Right, Farmer Sean has a farm in California, family restaurant
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: that is farmed to the table.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: You know, he is definitely he's He's.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: Kind of like the beefcake of the show.
• 15:18
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: They got on Toss and hay bales slow motion to.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: Wear shirts very much like I guess his farm is
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: a shirtless farm, which is normal.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's normally. He rolling some hay.
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: But he's looking for a lady who you know, will
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: see the hardworking lifestyle and we'll want to get on
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: that journey with him his best friend and a wife,
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: which I mean, isn't that the dream we're all looking for? That?
• 15:40
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: Farmer Sean is twenty two years old.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Twenty two years old, Yeah, yeah, I like it.
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: So I actually went to Farmer sean farm last month.
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: It is in the solving area. It's absolutely stunning. When
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: we get to next week's episode where we actually get
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: to see like overhead beautiful.
• 16:12
  Speaker 6: Shots at the farm. It's nuts.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: So his family owns that farm, and he kind of
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: hints at, you know that he has a very privileged life.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: I heard him say that at one point, and that
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: I thought that was actually nice to acknowledge because a
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: lot of people don't realize that.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: But farmers are, you know, their.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Last generational, last bastion of land barons in our country. Really,
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's there's a lot of wealth that can
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: come as a result of farming.
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: Oh for sure. Well, I will say he's not like
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: farmer Brandon in the sense that he grew up on
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: a farm. His family purchased this farm only within the
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: last couple of years. So they're actually from Newport Beach, California,
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: and that's where he grew up and they got the farm,
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: I want to say, like two or three years ago,
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: and that's where they spend like half their time, you know,
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: is on that farm. It's absolutely stunning. I didn't get
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: to go to his restaurant, unfortunately, but you know.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Although that's a bummer's where I know, we had.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: We had a very long day there, but it was
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: really cool. They do have a lot of people that
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: work on the farm. You know, crew and everything, because
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: it's a very modern thing today that I think people
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: get in their heads and they think we talked about
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: this with farmer Matt too. They think, you know, farmer, Oh,
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: you're out there working all the land yourself, blah blah blah.
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: But in order to have an efficient farm, you do
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: have to have a crew that helps you to get
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: through that.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: I think it's probably a lot more now if you
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: really think about it. Being a farmer today, especially at
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: a higher level, means that you're probably more of a
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: upper upper executive, upper level executive who's overseeing a lot
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: of things, right, and you're running books and you're looking
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: at P and L statements and you're there's a lot
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: of that going on today which there probably wasn't back in.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: The day exactly. And yeah, like we said, farmer Seawan's
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: family has a restaurant as well, so they've got lots
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: going on, but the house is absolutely studying. They had
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: incredible food for us. There's so many animals, there's two
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: long horns, there's dogs running around. It was crazy. And
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: the girls actually had like their own little barn that
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: they stayed in, and then there was another separate guest house.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: So when we were there for a press event, all
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: the farmers were staying in their own set of like
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: little houses. I mean, the property is massive, It's absolutely massive.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: There's a giant pool in the backyard, like it's crazy.
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: We were like, this must be a great blaze for parties,
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: like farm parties. But yeah, he was really cool. He
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: is very young. I think I said this, he's twenty two.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: Twenty two, Yeah.
• 18:56
  Speaker 6: Twenty two and looking for a wife.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: That's young to be like for a wife. That's very
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: young to be looking for a wife.
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: But then we got farmer Brett, who I believe is
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: thirty one.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I don't know what his age was, Okay,
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: so yeah.
• 19:10
  Speaker 6: He's a yeah, I think he's thirty one, the.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: Most mature of the three in age, right.
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: And you got to look mature if you're able to
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: rock the mustache, because.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you he looked good at it. I mean
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: he really did. Former bull rider, professional bull rider.
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: Okay, so let me tell you this. I learned this
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: when we were at our event with them. The show
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: really sets it up like he was a professional bull rider.
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: That is what you thought, That is what I thought.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: When I watched the episode for the first time. Yeah, so,
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: and anybody can go back and listen to our sit
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: down interviews with the farmers. They are on the I
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: Do Part two pod that is in this feed, so
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: you can get to know the farmers a little bit
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: better as well. But we said, so, you were a
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: professional bull rider and now you're turned entrepreneur, and he
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: was like, adamant, no, no, no, I would never call
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: myself a professional bull rider. And I wanted to be like, well, dude,
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: you haven't seen the episode then, because they clearly make
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: you out to be a professional bull rider. And even
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: when I watched it again last night, I was like,
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: oh god, I was not off base when we said this,
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: because that's how they make it to seem. So he
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: was basically just a rodeo bull rider and he must not.
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: Either he's being.
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, either he's being humble, or he just never took
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: it as like this was a career and this was
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: maybe a side quest that he did, but he clearly
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: did it for an amount of time and now he
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: has transferred into being an entrepreneur. He owns two businesses,
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: a tequila brand which is not just straight tequila.
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: He told me it is like a tequila.
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: Seltzer during package drenk that he does, and then protein.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Bars, protein bars.
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: Now, when we figure out I think we need to
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: get to know farmer Brett a little bit more about
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: how this farming comes into his life. But it sounds
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: like maybe he grew up on a ranch of some sort.
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: He grew up around horses and animals. So I'm interested
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: to see how they tell us or sell us a
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: little bit more on his farming background, because we haven't.
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: We didn't really get a whole lot in this.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: Which is funny because when he comes out, he's got
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: he's got the boots, the belt buckle, the tie with
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: the string, the bolo tie, the hat. I mean, he
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: looks more country western farmer guy than all of them.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Really.
• 21:44
  Speaker 6: Let's not forget the way he says yes, ma'am.
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: Every single time Kimberly relieves Paisley talks to him, she goes,
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: she goes, are you ready to make your decisions?
• 21:55
  Speaker 7: Brett?
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: Yes, ma'am, and then something else, yes, ma'am.
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: And these these men, by the way, that is how
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: they talk in real life. I would be like, hey,
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: can I have you sit over here? Yes, ma'am. Now, Bob,
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: I'm not about to be called ma'am, but I'm yes,
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: miss or miss. I'm just like, that's like.
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: My grandma or something.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: But I appreciate the fact that it is very chivalrous
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: and gentleman, very mannerly. These these are very well mannered
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: young men. I will say that after spending a day
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: with them and seeing them. They're all very polite, all
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: of them. Even when Kathy Schwartz was grilling them with questions,
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: they were all very caught off guard.
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: Ye, but it was it was cute.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: I highly suggest anybody go back and listen to those episodes.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: But we we yet to know. Uh so those are
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: the farmers, and I like.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: These guys, you know, I gotta say, likeli in watching
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: the show. I said this when we were just sort
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: of recapping before we even started taping.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: Was found I like these guys, Like.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: I think all three of them seem like really genuinely
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: nice guys, you know, And when you're kind of sitting
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: there listening to them, you're like, Okay, I get it,
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: I absolutely get it. All good looking dudes, you know,
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: all different levels of success, I'm sure, and probably different
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: levels of farming.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Experience, but you know.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: Ultimately, you know, I'm rooting for all three of them
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: right now. So from that perspective, at this point in
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: the show, we know they're going to meet each of
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: their farms full of ladies, right so they've got each
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: of them have nine ladies, which is an odd number,
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: why not ten?
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: And they said this is the first time they've done that,
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: that this is the most right these guys have had
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: to choose from I will say I like all of them.
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: They all seem they're all very attractive, nice young men.
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: From my producer's standpoint, my only issue is as I
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: wish the background packages had a little bit more oomph,
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: and by if I mean I love a range of
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: emotions people. This is my favorite kind of background package
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: is if I can laugh, a little cry, a little
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: back to smiling a little bit by But by the
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: time I've actually gotten to know all of them, and
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: so it's a little rough for me when I'm watching
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: and I hear all of their background packages say extremely
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: generic things in that I'm looking for my best friend,
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: I'm looking for somebody that's got a nice personality. It's
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: just like, that's great. I want to know I haven't
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: been able to find love on the farm. Last girl
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: I dated cheated on me. Now I'm ready to get
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: back out there. Da da da da da or from
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: our older farmer, I almost propose to a girl now.
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: You know, looking back, I don't even think I knew
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: what love was. But now as an older man, I
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: think I've really put myself out there. I've learned some things,
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: and now I think I'm ready to get down on
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: one knee and propose, like something a little bit.
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: Nice, like yeah, a little bit more so.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: You know, that's my only complaint is that it just
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: feels a little flat to me on the background packages.
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: But I really do like these guys.
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: And you know, obviously anybody who watched this first episode,
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: nine girls for each guy is a lot of.
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: Women to get through.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: So whereas on the Bachelor we have extremely long limo
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: entrance nights and we have all these kitchy things and
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: each girl gets her time on camera, this is like blink,
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: can you miss it? Like we're going through we're doing
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: mini dates and we're only getting to actually see three
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: to four girls speak at a time, right.
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, in fact, that's part of it, right, Like they
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: have these nine mini dates, of which, man, if you're
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: a first night or on this particular show and you
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: don't do something magic, you are you're not even there.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: Because they don't even really show much interaction between the
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: girls without you know, having some ado with the guys
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: they get, they get into it relatively quickly as far
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: as it goes. From the standpoint of these nine mini dates,
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, we really only see gosh, I think two
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: or three of each of the guys really during that
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: whole time frame of those dates. So but you know,
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: to that end, I mean, there are a couple moments
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: that stand out, right, I mean there are a couple
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: moments I think that from these many dates that are
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: kind of jumping off the screen a little bit, Like
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: we've got the girl who.
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: Was missed Texas Carson, right, she comes up to me.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: You know, it's funny, I I thought when when she
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: first came out, I thought, well, she's kind of cute,
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: and then you know, but after a little bit, I
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: was kind of like, you know, I have a thing
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: with pageant girls though, so I always, yeah, I have
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: a thing, like I always think I can't bring myself
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: to believe a lot of the because I just feel like.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: Everything's sur rehearsed. It's such a terrible thing to say.
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: But when she came out and she's like, you know,
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: but she gets the camera out, she takes a picture
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: of the camera, you know, and the whole thing. And
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: that was smart. Man, that was a smart move because
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: he remembered that. He you know, some of these people
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: do these things and they remember it.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: It's pretty good.
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: Pageant girls, in my experience, are extremely poised. And I've
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: had to have several conversations with pageant girls over the years,
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: being like, we got to drop the pageantry for this, right,
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: I got to get to know you. I got to
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: get to know the real you, not the pageant you,
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: so it can be that's.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: A great note because I think you're right.
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: Like they come off they're very polished, obviously beautiful.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: I mean that's that's.
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: Without saying obviously, but it's like they.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: They come off and they and they do they kind
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: of have everything is already worked out, like they know
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: what they're gonna say, they know how they're going.
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: To it's rosy. Everything is amazing. When that's just not reality.
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: That's reality in a pageant, but that's not reality in
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: real life. And so it sometimes can be very hard
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: to get that vulnerable side of them. And there's nothing
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: wrong with being a pageant girl.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: I think that my mom was a pageant girl.
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: If anything, what it shows is the dedication to the
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: pageantry work, because that is what I've had conversations about,
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: is undoing somebody's pageantry is what they've worked so hard for.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: They have practiced so long to do this, They've paid
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: so much money, maybe to a pageant coach who has
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: taught them how to hold themselves and how to have conversations.
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: So sometimes I'm able to undo it in a matter
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: of you know, because for anybody who has an auditioned
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: for a reality TV show, you have a very limited.
• 28:43
  Speaker 6: Amount of time with a casting director.
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: You don't get to sit there and warm up for
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: two hours and have a therapy session with me. You
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: got to kind of nail it. And I've got the
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: you know, objection of what I just said. I'm trying
• 28:56
  Speaker 4: to make you laugh, I'm trying to make you cry,
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: and I'm trying to do all of it in a
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: very short amount of time. And if you're not able
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: to drop those walls, it can be very difficult. But
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: for a show like this, where they're looking for wholesome,
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: they're looking for attractive, they're looking for very g rated people.
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: They might not get that deep into it when it
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: comes to the casting side. And I also just want
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: to shout out I have a couple of friends on
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: the casting team for this show who I absolutely love.
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: So I'm also excited to be watching it and recapping
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: it just for the pure fact that I have friends
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: that work very hard on this show, which is great.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: I think Carson's really cute. I think she looks like
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: Tom Hanks's wife, Rita Wilson.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: Rita Wilson interesting.
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: I think she looked like a young Rita Wilson when
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: she wasn't.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: Getting that vibe, but I was getting that she looks
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: like someone so.
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: Maybe that is unless sure, she was really cute.
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: Then we see on Farmer Brett he gets to go
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: on a mini date with Hannah. She brings him a
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: wishing star, like a little star on a card, and
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: they make a wish. And this was so funny because
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: then she goes first, tell me what your wish was,
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: and he was like, Oh no, we're gonna We're gonna
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: say these out loud.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: I didn't think we were supposed to do that.
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: True, just like I was like, this is this is
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: these guys. You know, these guys are extremely reserved on
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: this show for a majority. They're very reserved in real life.
• 30:26
  Speaker 6: By the way, And so it was cute to have a.
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: Girl the first one who's trying to already break the
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: hard exterior shell.
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: Right She's like, no, open up to me, speak to me,
• 30:38
  Speaker 6: tell me what's on your mind. And it was a
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: cute way to do it.
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: And what I liked about Farmer Brett in this moment
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: was immediately he was like, you want to come back
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: to the farm, and that's not what you're supposed to.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Do on this show himself in trouble, we're.
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: Supposed to build suspense. We're supposed to make these girls
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: squirrel for the rest.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: Of the day. And he goes to each other.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: You want to go back. If you could tell it
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: on her face, she was like can he do that?
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: Like she was surprised too, but it was cute and
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: it was so cute. This show should be called Farmer
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: Wants a Brunette because there's a lot of brunette.
• 31:16
  Speaker 8: There's a lot of brunettes on this show.
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: And then we get Lauren. She likes Farmer Brett because
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: he's older and to me, she looks like Christina Aguilera.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: Yes, so Lauren.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: I mean I thought this was interesting. Right, She's part
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: of the Farmer Brett team, right, and she gets her
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: time to go out and talk.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: She's an ICU nurse from New York. This is what
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: I'm talking about, right, this is what I'm thinking of.
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: Let me find her whole on a second.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's her. Oh wait, no, is that her?
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's her. She she's uh, I think she's it's
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: an icy nurse.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Let me read this. Yeah, I see you, nurse from
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: New York.
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: She goes out to meet him, right, they have a
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: nice little exchange. And I don't know if you noticed,
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: but when she goes out to me him, she's got
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: a stethoscope in her hand.
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: I did know the fact that you even clocked that
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: she was a nurse. I watched this show twice, you guys,
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: and I it never registered for me.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: She's carrying a stethoscope, So I'm sure her initial deal
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: and maybe she did it and they just didn't.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: Show it because it didn't work out in that regard.
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: She literally I guarantee you was going to put it in
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: her stethoscope and be like, let me see if your
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: heart's beating or something.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: But I didn't get butterflies from him.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: So she comes back to the room and they're like,
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: you know, oh my god, how did they go? And
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: she's like, m M, it was okay, and it was
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: just like, you know, yeah, he's nice, but you know,
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: then she ends up spoiler?
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Can I spoil it?
• 33:01
  Speaker 4: I mean, if they're listening to this recap, let's hope
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: you guys have watched the show by now, because this
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: whole thing is a spoiler.
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: She ends up bailing on our boy Bratt, like just
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: like it's like, he's not my thing.
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: Unless she just overhears all the other women talking about
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: farmer Braden.
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think she gets kind of infatuated with the
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: Bradley Cooper.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: I believe they called him a farming Yeah.
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: I mean, listen, I think it's less about what these
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: women were saying. If she was super honest, Yeah, she
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: probably saw the farmers walk out, and this goes back
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: to what I've said about them actually not choosing which
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: farmer they go to. This is a perfect example, right,
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: she saw those farmers for the first time during this episode,
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: she saw them all walk out and she was probably like,
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: farmer Brett not my type, Farmer Braiden my type, because
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: these conversations are so short and so quick. This first
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: night is it's about looks people, This is this is dating,
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: is about attraction and yes and the initial attraction, and
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: that's where these decisions are being made. And that's not
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: me being you know, cynical, that's just how this is.
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: These shows are moving extremely fast. These girls are not
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: getting more than ten minutes to talk to these guys
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: and likewise, and that's just how this is made. Now
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: moving forward, when they go back to the farm and
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: they're getting to spend more time with each other and
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: those kinds of conversations, that's when it's less I think,
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: superficial and it's more about are we in line with
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: our morals and values? You know what I mean? Like
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: the girl that's challenging the guide to a race, that's
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: her whole ten minutes right there, You.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: Know, like that exactly.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: You don't know anything about her, and Bob, you've you know,
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: been on the other side of this where you met
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: so many women in one night. You know that you
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: probably couldn't even remember all their names, you know, by
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: the end of this No, it was.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: It was crazy. I remember that.
• 35:04
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: I actually at the end of the night, I took notes.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: I really did. I took I took This is gonna
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: sound crazy, but I took notes.
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: Of each woman, even the ones I sent home, especially
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: the ones I sent home what I remembered from our
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: conversations because I I wanted to like, and I sent
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: them all thank you card when I got home, basically
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: saying like, thank.
• 35:23
  Speaker 6: You goes back to what I said Bob has.
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: Bob's got the riz and he's got.
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: Well, I just felt lost things. My wife sure does
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: a good job of it. But other than her, yeah,
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: I guess so.
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: All right, So Lauren, uh yeah, so Lauren kind of
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: bucks the system does her own thing. Stephanie's up next model, right,
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: She's tall, she's she comes out and she's like I
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: normally am dating younger than me. The first guy I'm
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: dating it's older than me, and they basically are like,
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: you know, she I think she's the one that makes
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: the of like are you falling in love with me already?
• 36:03
  Speaker 6: Are we going to make out?
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: Are we going to make out and he's like, I
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: can't do that.
• 36:07
  Speaker 6: Can't do that yet, like so serious.
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: Right on a typical dating show, I think somebody would
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: be like, you gotta buy me dinner first or something,
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: you know, somebody would say something funny back. But he
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: was like, I can't do that. I was like, okay,
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: I promise well, and this is when we get also
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: a shot of Heather Martin. She doesn't even speak basically
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: in this episode, but which was a little scary for me.
• 36:36
  Speaker 6: I'm not gonna lie.
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: When I first watched this, I was like, oh no,
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: Heather Martin doesn't even speak in this first episode. I
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: think she might be going home, but that was a
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: little editing trick they got me because he does not
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: go home in this episode. She gets invited back to
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: the farm, but maybe her little mini date. She was
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: on Colton's season, and then she also attempted to join
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: Matt James's season, but she didn't end up.
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: He didn't like let her.
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: In or something. It's been a minute guy since I
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: watched that, but she did not get on his season,
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: and then she also was on Paradise I believe wow,
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: So she is listen. Bachelor Nation knows who she is.
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: You know, I'm actually intrigued to see if they will.
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: Address that at some point on this show.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I feel like they should.
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I should other than the Cross
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: Cross network type of promotion, but I feel like they
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: should because at the end of the day, you know,
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: if I were her, there's a way you could spend that.
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: I think, you know where you could say I've seen
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: a lot of successful relationships come off of this thing
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: and you know, love it first sight. But none of
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: those guys that they were casting as the bachelor because
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: she she could say this, you know, we.
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: Girls could come after her though, saying that she's a
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: cloud chaser. I think that it's a double edged sword,
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: but I will be interested to see how, if, and
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: how they address it on this show. And then with
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: Farmer Sean, we see Olivia and they connect because of
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: their love for Montana and she.
• 38:16
  Speaker 6: Has two businesses.
• 38:18
  Speaker 4: She says, one is woodworking, the other is spraytnds and lashes,
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: which I was.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: Like, beauty and wood. I mean, it's all woodworking.
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: I just I really need to do a more of
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: a deep dive on Olivia and understand, like, how does
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: she go from whittling to spraytos Well.
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: First of all, I gotta believe I mean, she she
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: seemed to know her tools, a skill saw and I have.
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: A jigsaw and all these different things.
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: And he's like, well, damn like he was impressed with that,
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: and it definitely resonated.
• 38:50
  Speaker 4: And she's adorable. Oh my god, she's so key you.
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: I was like, I was like, this girl has an amazing,
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: cute little personality in this little snippet that I'm getting
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: to know her. I'm already liking what I see now.
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: On the other hand, then we meet Cameron, who's also adorable.
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: The girls on this show are so cute, so super cute.
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: I was going to say that the cast thing was great.
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're really adorable. Cameron you know, says that dating
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: in her hometown is hard, and then she you know,
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: says that she's also a single mom. She's got a
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: four year old back home, and that adds like another layer.
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: She has a farm where she says she has twenty
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: eight dogs.
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: Twenty eight that's a lot.
• 39:37
  Speaker 6: That's a lot of dogs.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I love dogs, but I don't love anything that much.
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: I will say. The second she revealed she was a
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: single mom. I knew it was going to be a pass.
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: And I say that because Farmer Sean is twenty two
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: years old. Oh my gosh, Yeah, that guy is Yeah,
• 40:01
  Speaker 4: he is not ready for that. I fully believe him
• 40:04
  Speaker 4: when he says he's ready for a wife. But I
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: believe this is the kind of man that is ready
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: for a wife and then kids five years.
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Timeline, I do not see.
• 40:17
  Speaker 4: And there is nothing wrong with being a single mom.
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: There is nothing wrong with going on a dating show
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: as a single mom. I think it's beautiful. I kind
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: of wish they'd partnered her with Farmer Brett. Yeah, I
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: was kind of annoyed that they gave her with they
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: put her with the youngest one, because even Farmer Brayden.
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: That the thing is is that had she gotten had
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: she been matched with Farmer Brett. And let's say, I
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: can't we can pull up her age. I don't remember
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: it off the top of my head, but she was
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: she's young here she is Cameron twenty three, twenty three, okay,
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: so that would have been like a big age difference
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: because Farmer Brett is thirty one.
• 41:03
  Speaker 6: So this is the thing.
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: Though being a mom already makes her in a different
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: playing field than all of these young girls because she's
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: responsible for a life that she raises and everything. That
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: adds a huge level of maturity to you. So putting
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: her with the twenty two year old was a choice
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: by the producer.
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: He probably and let's be honest, you know, guys at
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: twenty two and women at twenty two, you know, guys
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: are still basically kids.
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, he's.
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: Like, he's only been out of high school for a
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: couple of years.
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean that's just crazy.
• 41:46
  Speaker 4: I just feel like it was kind of a bummer
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: to then see her have this like moment right when
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: we talk about that there's only a couple of girls
• 41:55
  Speaker 4: that actually get screen time in this first episode, So
• 41:58
  Speaker 4: this is another editing trick. You fall in love with
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: this girl. You hear this whole journey right now. This
• 42:04
  Speaker 4: is a full pledged character to me, Yeah, character contestant.
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: She we now know that like her humble beginnings, we
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: know that she's a mom. We know why she's on
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: this show because she lives in a small town and
• 42:17
  Speaker 4: dating is difficult for being in a small town and
• 42:19
  Speaker 4: being a single mom. So now I'm invested in this
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: journey for her, and then I have to be you know,
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: with the sucker punch when I get to see her
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: then go home at the end of this episode and
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: balling her eyes out.
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: So producers knew what they were doing when they did that,
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: but I knew the second that she said single mom,
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: I knew it was going to also be He's He's
• 42:43
  Speaker 4: going to pass on this one for that reason, I think,
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: just because of the he's just not there yet. But
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: then that's when we get like quick montages of all
• 42:52
  Speaker 4: the mini dates that we don't get to see, and
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: then we see Lauren what you said earlier. She pulls
• 42:59
  Speaker 4: the producer her. She says that she wants to meet
• 43:01
  Speaker 4: farmer Braden, and they have a very awkward kind of
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: encounter because they're like, it's not going to be like
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: a mini date like everybody else, So they just have
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: to walk to each other in a field and kind
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: of talk in the middle of the field and he's like,
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: she's like, hi, like I wanted to meet you, and
• 43:19
  Speaker 4: he's like thanks, it's nice to meet you. And it's
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: just like it's just like super strange.
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: I guarantee you there are some really awkward silences in there.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: That they edited it out because it just seemed like
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: they were both just sort of.
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: Like sitting there.
• 43:34
  Speaker 4: Like my favorite part is she says, I grew up
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: in upstate New York, and I go fishing and hunting
• 43:42
  Speaker 4: all the time.
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: I got a crossbuw of paying strings.
• 43:45
  Speaker 4: I am going to say that's a lie. I'm sorry,
• 43:48
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna call it on that one, Christina Aguilera, because
• 43:56
  Speaker 4: I think that you've maybe done those things when you
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: were made be a child growing up. But I'm gonna
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: bet you don't do that every single weekend based on
• 44:06
  Speaker 4: how manicured and put together you are. Am I being
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: rude by saying that you can't be manicured and put
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: together and love hunting and fishing on the weekends. Come
• 44:16
  Speaker 4: for me, Come for me. I would love to know
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: out there how many well groomed women that clearly put
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: an emphasis on how put together they are when they
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: present themselves are out there hunting.
• 44:34
  Speaker 6: I just I just don't believe that.
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: I don't believe I even think more about fishing.
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: Like for me, it's like, man if I got you know,
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: she has on a nice outfit, she's you know, the
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: likelihood of her putting a worm on a hook, come on,
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: and then to.
• 44:57
  Speaker 6: Follow it up with he says, you know, I can't.
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: She says like she's down to move anywhere, and he says, well,
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: you know, I live in Homer, Illinois.
• 45:05
  Speaker 6: I can't pick up the farm.
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, I don't even know where Illinois is.
• 45:09
  Speaker 6: And then she goes, I don't know where Illinois is either.
• 45:13
  Speaker 3: She is a genius and read into it really quickly
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: that he kind of likes, like, you know, the dumb
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: chick thing or.
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: See you nurse, dude's.
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: An There is no way you can be an I
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: nurse and not no basic geography.
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Well you gotta be smart.
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: I can say this too, So I don't think she's
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: playing dumb. And I don't think she is dumb because
• 45:39
  Speaker 4: she doesn't know where Illinois is on the map. I think,
• 45:43
  Speaker 4: first of all, you can have your nursing degree and
• 45:47
  Speaker 4: doesn't mean you're actively a nurse. So it's not technically
• 45:50
  Speaker 4: a lie to sit say in her bio that she
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: is a nurse.
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: You've met her, haven't you.
• 45:59
  Speaker 4: I'm not she could very well be an active nurse.
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: She could very well just have a active license and
• 46:07
  Speaker 4: is not actually practicing being a nurse right now.
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: She could be an influencer.
• 46:13
  Speaker 4: She could be an aspiring influencer, or decided if she
• 46:17
  Speaker 4: could be a travel nurse like right now where she
• 46:19
  Speaker 4: has a more flexible schedule.
• 46:21
  Speaker 6: There's a whole myriad of things that she could be
• 46:23
  Speaker 6: doing now.
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: I think that this not knowing where Illinois is on
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: the map is going to haunt her. That she said
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: that people are going to now ask her every time
• 46:34
  Speaker 4: they meet her if they she knows where Illinois. But
• 46:37
  Speaker 4: good for her, she is going to know because after
• 46:41
  Speaker 4: this first episode she is chosen to go back to
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: the farm, so she is going to be going to
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: Illinois after this, so she will know. But that comment
• 46:51
  Speaker 4: is what also further enforced in my mind that she
• 46:57
  Speaker 4: does not hunt and fish because I just don't buy it.
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: So anyways, Christina Aguilera, Lauren, we can't wait to see
• 47:07
  Speaker 4: how you are on the farm next week with all
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: the other girls, because when it comes to the choosing
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: at the farm ceremony inviting who comes back, the girls
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: in Farmer Braden's team are shocked. I use air quotes
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: when I say that, yeah, shocked that Lauren is now
• 47:26
  Speaker 4: part of the group. Making their group ten, meaning five
• 47:30
  Speaker 4: of them are going home versus four of them. Yes,
• 47:35
  Speaker 4: that also felt extremely forced to me. I don't think
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: anybody cared. It sounded very what we call frank and
• 47:41
  Speaker 4: bite when you go back and.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: Listen chopping together.
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: It was a little choppy, choppy where it was like Lauren,
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: I can't believe she's here.
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: I can't believe Lauren is here. This is crazy.
• 47:57
  Speaker 6: I don't want to ruin the magic for listeners.
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: You don't watch TV like you and I watch TV
• 48:04
  Speaker 4: having been on the other side. But when somebody is
• 48:08
  Speaker 4: saying something and you're hearing the audio and you're not
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: seeing lips move on screen.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: It can come from anywhere.
• 48:17
  Speaker 4: It can come from anywhere at any time. That is
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: actually part of the contract that you sign when you
• 48:23
  Speaker 4: go on all of these shows is giving permission to
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: the network and to the editors of this show to
• 48:32
  Speaker 4: use your voice and footage in whatever way that they
• 48:37
  Speaker 4: want to. That is part of this. That is not
• 48:40
  Speaker 4: this show specific. This is every reality show has the
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: ability to do this, and that is because this were
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: a couple of reasons, but Bob, you know this, there's
• 48:51
  Speaker 4: no reshoots when it comes to a reality show. So
• 48:55
  Speaker 4: when they shoot it and it is done and in
• 48:57
  Speaker 4: the can they have to make what they can make
• 49:02
  Speaker 4: from that.
• 49:04
  Speaker 6: You got to make it work.
• 49:05
  Speaker 4: And if you know, you're an actor and you're shooting
• 49:09
  Speaker 4: a show or a movie or something and you're going
• 49:11
  Speaker 4: back and you're editing a scene and it's not working
• 49:14
  Speaker 4: and we didn't get the right coverage or the person's
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: microphone wasn't working that day, I need you to go
• 49:19
  Speaker 4: back and rerecorder. We need to reshoot. Reshoots are very expensive,
• 49:23
  Speaker 4: but that's how they do it in that world. They
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: don't have the ability to do that in reality TV.
• 49:29
  Speaker 4: And that doesn't make this any less real. I don't
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: want to, you know, put this out there that you
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: know reality TV is all fake and da da da
• 49:40
  Speaker 4: da da, it's not.
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: I always say this.
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: The the the conversations that occur and the emotions that
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: people feel, those aren't fake.
• 49:51
  Speaker 6: Those aren't exactly as the.
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: Situations that they are put in are very produced and manipulated.
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: And some people do it better than others.
• 49:59
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: One of the things, yeah, and one of the things
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: about The Bachelor that I always have said is the
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: Bachelor producers for the at least at least in the
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: timeframe that I had done the show and for many
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: after me.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: We're wonderful at producing romance. They really were.
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: They were great at producing romantic situations, placing people in
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: them somehow, getting people to feel comfortable quickly, and getting
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: the conversations that they probably had storyboarded out weeks before
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: to hopefully have you know, those conversations take place based
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: on what they knew about these individuals. It's just master
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: manipulation at its finest. And I think that that's if
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: you think about it. Then when people are like, well,
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: all those things are fake and stage, now those are different.
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: Fake and stage, they're different, Right, A stage situation can
• 50:45
  Speaker 3: give you the context you want, right, And so that's
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: where I think these producers and the relationships they create
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: with the cast, and you know, that's where you're so good.
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, you're you're great at making connections with people
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: right away and you know, feeling and making people feel comfortable.
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: And when you have that ability to do that, you
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: also have the ability to get the desired responses out
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: of people that you're looking for based on the circumstances
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: in the in the chemistry.
• 51:08
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 51:09
  Speaker 6: Wow, that's just like we practice that conversation.
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: Thank you so much. You did such a good job. Yeah, yeah,
• 51:15
  Speaker 4: that was good, just like we practice.
• 51:18
  Speaker 6: No, you're you're absolutely right in what you're saying.
• 51:21
  Speaker 4: And I will say that as producers, we can hope
• 51:28
  Speaker 4: and have things mapped out in our brains or you know,
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: as a team before we go into something. But the
• 51:35
  Speaker 4: beauty of reality TV is that sometimes truth is stranger
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: than fiction. And some of the craziest moments and things
• 51:44
  Speaker 4: that end up happening on camera are not planned or anticipated,
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: and you have to roll with it in the moment.
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: The crew has to roll with it. The people that
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: are in that you know, scenario have to roll with it.
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: And that's when you can get some really memorable moments.
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: And now when I look at this episode and I think,
• 52:02
  Speaker 4: you know, okay, so here's when we say this is
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: what's planned. The plan is is that the girls meet
• 52:08
  Speaker 4: the farmers. They each get their little ten minutes. That's
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: the planned element. Now, how the conversation happens in those
• 52:16
  Speaker 4: ten minutes is less planned.
• 52:18
  Speaker 6: Maybe unless they had like a gimmick.
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: That they were bringing into it, or whatever camera the camera,
• 52:24
  Speaker 4: or challenging to a race and things like that. That's
• 52:27
  Speaker 4: pre planned and that's usually approved. But the whole Farmer
• 52:32
  Speaker 4: Brett saying you want to go back to the farm
• 52:33
  Speaker 4: right now, that was that was reality. That was that
• 52:36
  Speaker 4: guy being caught up in the moment, and that is
• 52:39
  Speaker 4: not producers telling him to do that. But then producers
• 52:41
  Speaker 4: can't go back and be like, yeah, you can't do
• 52:45
  Speaker 4: the un inviter, So you know, that's reality. And then
• 52:48
  Speaker 4: the same thing when we I want to say that
• 52:51
  Speaker 4: when we see Lauren have her moment not be interested in,
• 52:57
  Speaker 4: you know, farmer Brett and pulling a producer aside and
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: saying I want to talk to Branden. I want to
• 53:03
  Speaker 4: believe that there is a reality element of that.
• 53:07
  Speaker 6: I'm going to leave it at that.
• 53:07
  Speaker 4: I don't want to be too sinple and I don't
• 53:09
  Speaker 4: want to nitpick, you know.
• 53:12
  Speaker 3: But I'm gonna go back and follow her and catch
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: that conversation.
• 53:16
  Speaker 4: With you bring it up. I mean, that's that's the
• 53:21
  Speaker 4: element where I look at things a little bit differently
• 53:25
  Speaker 4: than probably the average viewer and you too. But yeah,
• 53:28
  Speaker 4: it's it's the far away shot of the conversation happening
• 53:33
  Speaker 4: now that very well could have been real. We could
• 53:37
  Speaker 4: have maybe just had a very limited camera crew at
• 53:39
  Speaker 4: the time, because we've got three station cameras. We've got
• 53:42
  Speaker 4: one on each farmer, we've got one back in the
• 53:44
  Speaker 4: barn looking at the girls. So we might have just
• 53:48
  Speaker 4: been limited on cameras and it was just put that
• 53:51
  Speaker 4: one on sticks, turn it around, shoot, you know long
• 53:54
  Speaker 4: ways this conversation that's happening between.
• 53:57
  Speaker 6: Through the yeah, you know what I mean.
• 53:59
  Speaker 4: So there is an element that I'm like, I want
• 54:02
  Speaker 4: to give them, you know, I don't want to fault
• 54:06
  Speaker 4: them if it was real, but there there is an
• 54:09
  Speaker 4: element of it feeling a little bit produced in the
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: sense that, you know, right, that's the controversy of the episode,
• 54:15
  Speaker 4: and we have to have something that goes a little
• 54:19
  Speaker 4: off the rails because then this forces Farmer Brayden to
• 54:23
  Speaker 4: then have to make a decision. But he also wants
• 54:25
  Speaker 4: to be a gentleman, so he has to go back
• 54:27
  Speaker 4: to the boys and ask, you know, how to.
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: They feel like that like this.
• 54:31
  Speaker 4: Of course he's like, I just met these guys.
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think I'm sure that was as well,
• 54:36
  Speaker 3: but I do think that, you know, and I was
• 54:38
  Speaker 3: even thinking about it, I was thinking, Wow, I wonder
• 54:41
  Speaker 3: if Farmer.
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: Brett's going to be you know, if he was into her,
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: which he didn't seem like he was.
• 54:46
  Speaker 3: No, But I actually I liked the fact that that
• 54:50
  Speaker 3: it was Braiden right, that Brandon went back to Bretton
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: and Sean and was like, hey, guys, here's where I'm
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: at with this and this happened and you know, and
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: he's like, hey, man, go for it. Good bye, Which
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: I thought that was a cool moment because it allows
• 55:03
  Speaker 3: us to now still root for all three farmers as
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: opposed to thinking, oh, this dude's a little bit of
• 55:08
  Speaker 3: a scammer, you know, or whatever, even though he didn't
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: do it.
• 55:11
  Speaker 6: And what have producers done in this episode?
• 55:13
  Speaker 4: They have set up for us that Lauren is going
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: to be the villain and her farm at least, and so,
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: you know, it's an interesting way to start a season.
• 55:26
  Speaker 4: We do get a preview. Well, actually, we'll just talk
• 55:29
  Speaker 4: really quick about who ends up going home to the farm.
• 55:33
  Speaker 4: So Brandon chooses Casey.
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: She's actually my sleeper. She's my sleeper on this show. Okay.
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: Actually, I think her conversation with him was so easy.
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you if you recall, but she
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: was making him laugh. She was very chill.
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: She was very pretty, very put together, but had a
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: lot of confidence, but at the same time, nothing seemed
• 55:53
  Speaker 3: overly animated to me. So I'm just I'm saying that
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: upfront that I think Casey is.
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: Going to be a contender on this, okay.
• 56:01
  Speaker 4: And then he takes Brittany, Cameron, Carson, and Lauren. So
• 56:05
  Speaker 4: that's a lot of seas for for farmer Branden. And
• 56:09
  Speaker 4: then farmer Sean takes Emily, Olivia, Carson, Ali, Beth and Macy.
• 56:17
  Speaker 4: Meaning this is when we find out he sends home
• 56:20
  Speaker 4: the single mom Cameron, who we got to know, you know,
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: fairly well. And then farmer Brett we already know he
• 56:26
  Speaker 4: invited Hannah back. He also brings back Quinn, Cassie, Heather, Martin,
• 56:31
  Speaker 4: and Stephanie.
• 56:33
  Speaker 6: And then that's.
• 56:34
  Speaker 4: When Kimberly Williams Paisley says that each farmer now gets
• 56:39
  Speaker 4: to choose one out of his five women to go
• 56:42
  Speaker 4: back to the farm early have some uninterrupted alone time.
• 56:45
  Speaker 4: And I think this is really, uh the telling moment,
• 56:51
  Speaker 4: right because now they've got to choose the one that
• 56:53
  Speaker 4: they quote unquote like the most or want are most
• 56:56
  Speaker 4: intrigued by.
• 56:58
  Speaker 6: And that's when Sean chooses Olivia.
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: Olivia we said was the one that has a woodworking
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: business as well as lashes and sprayed hands. And then
• 57:07
  Speaker 4: Brett has Cassie and she is the girl who challenged
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: him to a race that we never really got to see.
• 57:15
  Speaker 4: So that was kind of interesting because he had such
• 57:17
  Speaker 4: a spark with Hannah, you would think that that would
• 57:21
  Speaker 4: be the one he would take home first, but something
• 57:23
  Speaker 4: about Cassie. And then Brandon chooses Carson, and Carson is
• 57:28
  Speaker 4: the one that had the camera and she was the
• 57:30
  Speaker 4: first one that he met, so's she's very cute Miss Texas. Yeah,
• 57:34
  Speaker 4: so then we see Tis Texas, two time Miss Texas.
• 57:38
  Speaker 4: She's got a pageantry in her that one. Then we
• 57:42
  Speaker 4: get a preview of this season. We see, like I said,
• 57:45
  Speaker 4: you know, the girls moving into the farms, lots of kissing,
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: Sean saying to one woman, a lot of the girl's
• 57:53
  Speaker 4: view you as very strategic.
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: Can't I'm guessing I'm trying to figure out who I
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: can see.
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: If Braydon was saying that.
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: I think he would be saying that to Lauren, right,
• 58:06
  Speaker 3: you know, but you've got Sean saying it. I don't
• 58:09
  Speaker 3: feel like we've got to know his ladies well enough
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: yet to know which one they might be saying that.
• 58:13
  Speaker 4: About exactly, and then Carson saying that there's a target
• 58:18
  Speaker 4: on her back, and then we see lots of crying,
• 58:22
  Speaker 4: and then we see Brett saying this farmer for.
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: A wife found a whif.
• 58:27
  Speaker 4: So I don't you know, it'll be interesting. I'm actually
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: I want to know what the listeners think that have
• 58:32
  Speaker 4: watched maybe the show in the past, or even if
• 58:35
  Speaker 4: you're watching it for the first time. I can say
• 58:37
  Speaker 4: that last season, all four Farmers none of them got
• 58:41
  Speaker 4: engaged at the end of their season. So I'd be
• 58:44
  Speaker 4: interested to see if somebody actually proposes, because I don't
• 58:48
  Speaker 4: know if you remember this from season three, but later
• 58:52
  Speaker 4: on in the season they brought back people from season
• 58:57
  Speaker 4: one or two or something that were mayor read to
• 59:01
  Speaker 4: come and meet everybody, to come and talk to everybody,
• 59:03
  Speaker 4: So I don't know how they would navigate that this season,
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: because I'm fairly positive they all broke up from last season.
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we know Matt and Chelsea did I know?
• 59:15
  Speaker 4: I know, Farmer John did I know? And I don't
• 59:20
  Speaker 4: even think the other two even had anything going after
• 59:24
  Speaker 4: the cameras rolled right, So yeah, I'm interested. But overall, Bob,
• 59:30
  Speaker 4: what would you say, are you into this show? You're
• 59:33
  Speaker 4: feeling it? What are you most excited about? Would you say?
• 59:37
  Speaker 3: You know, listen, I am as jaded as the next
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: guy when it comes to this stuff, but there is
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: a bit of a wholesome quality to this show that
• 59:45
  Speaker 3: that I do find appealing. Like I was sitting there
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: and watching it, you know, thinking to myself like, like,
• 59:51
  Speaker 3: I'm rooting for these people. I really am, And I
• 59:53
  Speaker 3: think that it's not just you know, I mean I
• 59:56
  Speaker 3: root for everybody on The Bachelor.
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: I root for everybody in the Bachelor. Do I genuinely
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: root for everybody?
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: But it's one of those moments where I was like
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 3: watching this show and I thought, man, I feel like,
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 3: you know, I think you've heard me say this. But
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: when people say, oh, are they here for the right reasons?
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 3: My response has always been, well, what are the right
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 3: reasons to go on a reality dating show? Like, you know,
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: what are the right reasons? Because I don't know, I
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: don't know what those right reasons are. But I think
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 3: that when you watch a show like this where it's
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: kind of like they are kind of rooting for each other, Yes,
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 3: you're going to have that same type of competitiveness.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: It's going to come out and some people later in
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: the in the in the thing, but.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: It's starting off at least with a pro you know,
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 3: happy type of you know environment, and I'm hopeful that
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: that continues for a little bit because there are a
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: few people on this show, Like there's that I think
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: her name is Ali Bath?
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 2: Is that her name? Hanging on a second, what is yeah?
• 1:00:49

• 1:00:53
  Speaker 3: too sweet to even be real, you know what I mean.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 3: So part of me is like, I hope they I
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 3: hope that they connect, you know or whatever. Olivia, like
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 3: you said, the woodworker seemed like they had a really
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 3: genuine connection. So it'll be it'll be interesting to see
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 3: and I would love to see, you know, I would
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 3: love to see some people come off of this thing

• 1:02:06
  Speaker 4: for anybody that listen to our recaps of Love Overboard,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 4: this is like straight up whiplash because this is the
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 4: complete opposite of that show, which was you know, making
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 4: out and foul language and drinking and alcohol and craziness.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 4: This is not that. And I think that, you know,
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 4: for me, as much as I've worked on the other
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 4: side of things, it's not always the case for people
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 4: that have done what I do. But I'm obsessed with
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 4: reality TV and I love it and I know how
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 4: the sausage is made, and I.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 6: Still still love it, and.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 4: It's what I consume on a regular basis. It's actually crazy.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 4: So many people that you and I work with love
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 4: scripted shows, and I just really pull one maybe a
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 4: year or two. And I really love reality and I
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 4: love seeing people fall in love on TV. I think
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 4: it's so special, it's so sweet, and so you know,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 4: I'm rooting for this season after especially getting to meet
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 4: the guys. I'm rooting for them. I think they're all
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 4: such nice men, So I'm excited about this.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: I like that you met them and liked them.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 3: That makes me feel even better about doing this because
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 3: I I want to like these guys and I do
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 3: so far. And I like a lot of the ladies too,
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 3: Like I feel like, you know, as we get to
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: know these ladies too, I think it's going to be
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: a lot more fun to get invested in in the
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 3: way this whole thing goes. And you know, hey, man,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 3: we got three strikes, right, so we got three chances
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 3: to at least get one love connection on this whole
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 3: thing that I feel like maybe, if nothing else, that's
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 3: the best part about these odds that we have gone
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 3: with from Farmers is maybe we get two thirds, maybe
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 3: we get all three, and it's a trifecta. I don't know,
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 3: but at the end of the day, I mean, one
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 3: out of three eight bad, right, So I'm pulling for
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 3: that to get me out of the gates exactly.
