*BONUS* Love is Blind Season 6 Full Season Recap · Drama, Darling: A Real Housewives Comedy Podcast

0:07
Drama, Darling Drama, Darling Drama, Darling. Hello, Love is Blind,
0:25
Friends and now family. Emily and I are here. We are swaddled
0:30
in our pod blankets. Hi, Emily, I've never felt this way about
0:34
anybody. Oh my god, I just have to warn you. I totally
0:38
am in love with you, but I don't know if I can really like
0:41
I'm just afraid of like cheating on you and like leaving you. But I
0:45
love you so much. You're the one. Oh my god, nobody's ever
0:49
said that to me like that. I know you're the one. Ah.
0:53
We are also drinking out of our Love is Blind cups. If you put
0:59
ours together, we make the perfect cup cup. Mine is a spray painted
1:03
gold red solo cup and Emily's is, in fact a perfectly insulated wine up.
1:11
Yeah, it's like my outdoor movie cups. Yes, and here's a
1:17
hot tip for you outdoorsy movie folks. I put glow in the dark stickers,
1:21
different ones on each cup, which I kept thinking on Love because at
1:25
night you can see where which cup is yours. But on Love is Blind,
1:27
I'm like they're drinking. Everybody's drinking all the wrong cups on there.
1:30
Everybody's dating Everybody's okay, you know what I'm saying, this is like The
1:36
Bachelor on steroids. I've never seen the likes of anything like this. I
1:41
certainly did not expect that we would leave the pods and that we would go
1:48
on vacation. So it's like it was like literally the Bachelor meets Bachelor and
1:53
Paradise meets I don't know, or not ninety day fiance, yeah kind of,
2:01
or like say yes to the dress means. It's just everything. So
2:06
I can understand why people are going bonkers for this show. It hits on
2:09
all cylinders. It escalates things to a level in which you're like, our
2:13
society insine zine, like that we're even doing this. I will say the
2:17
best thing that they ever did was to call this an experiment instead of like
2:23
a dating show. I mean, that's the best way to do it.
2:27
Yeah, you know what I mean, like, very smart to rebrand that,
2:30
because as you're watching it, you're like, this is totally an experiment.
2:32
It doesn't feel as exploitive if you were to say it's like a dating
2:37
show, you know, because clearly people are coming in there not for the
2:39
right reasons. You know, they're showing up, but they're not coming in
2:43
for the right reasons. It's like to see to make sure that you're just
2:46
not shallow. We're all just trying to figure out are you shallow? Are
2:51
you show? You want to know? But at the end of the day,
2:53
are you hot? Can you just explain to me how cute you are?
2:57
So I get it. I get why this is nuts, And I
3:00
also think this was obviously a fire season for Love is Blind, though I'm
3:04
speaking out of turn because I don't know past seasons, but from what I've
3:07
been told and from what i've the research that I've done, is that this
3:09
is one of the better seasons they've had, clearly, and now this is
3:14
season six, which is like, I mean, they've been there, They've
3:19
run the gamut, so clearly this is out there. These people know how
3:23
to play the game, they know what comes with it. That's why this
3:27
is such a tricky situation. Why I think the stakes are higher because people
3:30
are coming in that are already bonkers and just ready to make have their fifteen
3:34
minutes of fame. Yeah, and I think that also it's a weird can't
3:44
I kept kind of being like so like inside claustrophobic because we were in the
3:51
pods for so long, and then once we left the pods, we were
3:55
all in the same kind of carbon copy houses. That was I don't know.
4:00
I just felt that I didn't take my blanket off because I was afraid
4:04
it was gonna short the static would short out my microphone, which I kept
4:08
thinking about when they were doing it, dude, like those blankets are so
4:11
much static. What are they doing? They must be spraying them down constantly
4:15
and it must be absolutely you know, negative fifty. It was like true
4:19
detective. It was like, you know, night country temperatures and those pods,
4:25
the way that they would just get into those blankets, you know.
4:28
But I mean I'd rather it be like too cold in those pods than too
4:31
hot, clearly because everyone's sharing pods though, too, and you know that's
4:35
just it's gonna be weird, like yeah, you know, you wouldn't want
4:40
to stee me and like like yeah, sweaty, sweaty, yeah, yeah.
4:44
I mean, like you know that Trevor puts off some heat after he's
4:47
been in one of those pods forever. It's definitely that mullet is like it's
4:51
boiling under the fat hair, you know. Oh, yeah, he's got
4:56
like athletes foot on his hairline. I was so confused by what is that.
5:00
I was thinking it was hair plugs and gone wrong, like you know
5:05
what I mean. Well, I mean one would guess or speculate, and
5:11
this is alleged. I have looked a little bit like Roydney, like royd
5:15
Acne, But I mean, who's ane Steroi steroids? Oh wow, I
5:23
didn't know you were the connoisseur on steroid acne. I'm very impressed. I
5:26
mean here, I didn't even know there was such a thing. Okay,
5:30
yeah that check. Yeah, it's like it's super hormonal like in that area.
5:36
But I just wow, yeah, I mean I don't know, maybe
5:40
I'm totally wrong. Didn't look like he was taking steroids in that exact second
5:46
that we saw him, So I mean maybe four or five seconds before or
5:49
after possibly, but like not that second. Let me just say that while
5:55
I was watching this, I really put the Love Is blinders on because I
6:00
didn't want to know while I was watching it what any of the spoilers were.
6:03
I didn't know. I didn't want to know if anyone was in there,
6:09
Like I didn't want to know who it was that had a fiance.
6:12
I saw I'd seen that headline, and I just was like, I don't
6:14
want to know who it is because I want to follow this journey and I
6:16
want to be invested. Should I be invested just to see where I land
6:20
so that I can feel the full betrayal when it's revealed. And uh,
6:27
yeah, well spoiler, I was googling the whole time. I'm good for
6:30
you. It's this guy. So you found out that Trevor is the Trevor
6:34
is the one who had a girlfriend. Yeah, and Jeremy was engaged as
6:41
he was signing up for this thing, and Jimmy had something. I mean,
6:46
everybody's got something except for Johnny. Also, these names are Jimmy and
6:50
Johnny. Who's Johnny? John Are you kidding? Amy? Oh Johnny?
6:56
I'm sorry, Yeah, I got it. Don't worry. I won't be
6:58
doing that this whole time. It's just weird to hear you just isolate him
7:01
as Johnny because when I'm going through my notes, I never I can never
7:06
isolate just one person. I'm like Jimmy and Chelsea, Jimmy and Jessica Clain
7:11
a d Ad and Matthew. Like so when you were like Johnny who was
7:14
Johnny oh Amy and Johnny Okay, I got it, but it's fair because
7:18
there were so many people that we never even heard speak or we saw them
7:24
once or twice in the pod. And then that was it, hanging around
7:29
coming out of those pods into the hallway, just walking into nowhere, just
7:31
the void. I know, I kept it felt very much like it was
7:36
like if this was a Black Mirror episode, we somehow were able to It's
7:42
as though they were were seeing inside the stock photos coming to life, like
7:46
all these bland ass people looking like having the best day of their life in
7:51
the most bland ass setting with the same props in every photo. Like it's
7:57
like we're watching them these like this crazy underworld of stock photos, trying to
8:03
I don't get the reference because I don't watch Black Mirror, but I'm making
8:09
it out this mirror. This is sci fi, got it? You know,
8:13
Like when you see a stock photo at Michael's in the picture frames,
8:18
Yes, that's the world they lived in, people from those phontifying and also
8:24
perfect because that's the houses that they live in. Those Yes that like newly
8:30
that newly built subdivision that no one was really living in yet was the scariest
8:37
thing I've ever seen in my life. And then having them live in there
8:39
that I felt depressed. I felt alone, I felt like that doesn't exist.
8:45
I felt I was having the worst you know, philosophical you know,
8:50
Jean Paul sepl like I was. I was like in the corner running post.
8:54
I was in a dark place when I every time they showed those things
8:58
and then the interior and just the generic like decor, I was like,
9:03
I wanted to scratch my eyes out. I wanted to bite my arm.
9:07
I wanted to end up like one of the corpsicles and true detectives. I
9:11
wanted to run as far away as I could. And I thought they have
9:16
no hope at surviving these housing situations. Yes, I agree. And it
9:22
was also just like trying to like, oh, this is our home,
9:26
We're so happy here, and I was like, it's not. Please stop,
9:31
this is not your home. I don't know where we are. We
9:33
need to call the police. Yeah. Right, That's when the experiment really
9:39
hid an experiment because I'm thinking they're going from these weird ass pods to the
9:46
Dominican Republic, to these houses to a wedding, yeah, to planning a
9:54
wedding and it's just this whole It's like the Truman Show. It was the
10:00
vibe. Yeah, yes, that's why I do think it is quite genius.
10:03
And it's pretty amazing to me that these people sign up for this,
10:07
because there's no way even if you're doing it for the wrong reasons, how
10:11
mentally challenging and emotionally bizarre. Uh, this would like take a toll on
10:20
you even if you were there for the wrong reasons. You know, you
10:24
still can't protect yourself that much. You were sleeping with other people. I
10:28
mean, we know Amy and Johnny aren't sleeping together, but like everyone else
10:31
is. Yeah, I feel like they probably were like oh well, I
10:37
feel like they were all so guarded. It was interesting because in a way,
10:43
they're all auditioning for reality TV on the show. Yeah, but they've
10:48
all watched it enough and are like whispering the stuff that will be questionable,
10:54
like you would you know what I mean, Like they're just like whispering that
10:58
sex stuff and like, oh, the cameras are on and that's so bizarre
11:03
to me. And then so I feel like Amy had I feel like she
11:09
didn't want her parents to know. Oh, but I don't know, I
11:13
see what you're saying. I don't know. Okay, well that would make
11:16
sense. I could see that for her. Yeah, she didn't want her
11:18
parents to know, so they just made a birth control excuse. Although that
11:22
side of Johnny that came out when they were in those weird houses. Yes,
11:28
I got real scared, real quick. I know he's laser focused on
11:35
not having a kid right now, like I just brought don't baggage. I
11:41
mean, yeah, I can't understand how he's just like, nope, we're
11:46
not like I'm like condoms. But then maybe he's one of those people that's
11:50
like, no, I have to double we need two forms. Oh I'm
11:54
sure, yeah, because it's not I mean, a condom is not like
11:56
full proof, not enough for him. That's for Oh my god. I
12:01
could not the way that he really laid down the law about it, and
12:07
he was like, I will not do this. I will not, you
12:09
know, bring a child into this world until my life is absolutely perfect financial
12:13
And I'm like, okay, someone needs to get into some therapy, like
12:16
and stat because when he did explain his childhood about how there were four kids
12:20
in the bathroom at the same time, he described it as somewhat nostalgic and
12:28
yes, okay, yeah, So then it was more along the lines of
12:33
him being like, I wish that we wouldn't have been as you know,
12:37
had so many financial challenges growing up. However it still was magical and like
12:43
we made it work. But now I'm thinking, what dark stuff happened to
12:48
you that you are being so intense about this, and why didn't you bring
12:52
this up in the pod? They said they talked about everything, and now
12:58
they're talking about this birth control thing in the weird houses. Yeah, I
13:03
mean god, who knows what God edited out of the pot, right,
13:07
but it is weird weird. Yeah, he got real series, real fast.
13:11
But or it was probably one of those things where you're like yeah,
13:13
yeah, yeah, and then not realizing like, no, this is his
13:16
life. Yeah, oh right, yes, that's probably it. Amy and
13:22
Johnny. We can just kind of finish with them and move on to other
13:26
couples because they were really the ones that had the happiest ending obviously, and
13:35
well the only ones that had the happiest ending. Well, I do know
13:39
that Clay and a d are still together. Oh I didn't say that,
13:43
are you sure? Yeah, there's been things since the wedding. Oh wow,
13:48
yeah, okay, whoa okay, well hold on on that. So
13:56
Johnny and Amy, who were great, They just got along so well,
14:01
and then they met so quickly. And then where did they go in those
14:05
pods? Like we didn't see or hear from them. That was weird.
14:09
Yeah, once they had the engagement, you didn't see their subsequent pods or
14:16
meetings or anything. Same with Marcus and what and what's her head? Once
14:22
they got engaged, we didn't see them again. Then the pods them in
14:26
a glass box, put them to sleep. And here's where your coma theory
14:33
is gonna come in. They put them induced comas on all of the couples
14:37
that got engaged. They put them in in their own pod, temperature controlled,
14:43
and they woke them up when it was time to go to the Dominican
14:46
Republic. I guess that's what they did with all those other people we never
14:52
heard from right right, milling about like robots. They weren't real. Probably
15:01
they were probably AI testing. Yeah, there's a just a quick sidestep on
15:07
Australia traders. There's a guy named Paul, and if you've watched it,
15:09
you'll know who I'm talking about. But he never speaks. And then I
15:13
did a little bit of a deep dive on what the hell was up with
15:15
Paul on Traders and apparently at the round table he would make people swear on
15:20
their family's lives. And he was constantly throughout filming breaking the fourth wall and
15:26
talking to the producers. But the best is he wouldn't stop speaking as Austin
15:31
Powers in Austin Powers lines. So as I'm watching Love Is Blind, I'm
15:37
like, I wonder if they're all just doing shitty Austin Powers and they're just
15:43
getting cut out because they won't allow it, and it's really funny. Yeah,
15:48
baby, don't they know that that's like what we would want to see?
15:52
Are they stupid? Like I let us see that now. I want
15:56
to see all the uncut footage of this guy I know, I know,
16:00
well, last a while, he's just there in the background. Wow.
16:04
Well, Johnny and Amy have a great wedding. Johnny's sister Emma Stone shows
16:11
up, which is great. I'm kidding. She just looks a lot like
16:15
her And that's that. I mean. We don't know where it landed with
16:19
the birth control. We know that he considered the phasectomy for one second until
16:23
he read what it was. And I like that. I like that this
16:30
conversation. I like that she was like, you know what, I don't
16:33
know if I want to go on birth control? How about a vasectomy?
16:36
That was the most one of the most empowering things I've ever seen on television
16:40
for women to see. Thank you Women's History Month. Let's start this conversation.
16:45
Let's and a lot of people, a lot of young people watch this.
16:48
So I love the conversation around birth control. I love that it was
16:51
like, you know what, some women can't take it, some women don't
16:52
want to take it. How about you do something about it? You know.
16:56
Loved it, loved every piece of it, every part of it.
17:00
Go amy. She probably ended up taking birth control, though, but she
17:06
had a fighting chance. I did have to fast forward through a lot of
17:10
the emotional like father crying stuff, just because I was like, Oh,
17:11
I don't have time to cry right now, so I'm just gonna like kind
17:14
of fast forward through the wedding cries. Oh, her dad was great,
17:18
her dad was great. Yeah, Well did you even fast forward through Clay's
17:22
dad? Did you? Oh? God, no, No. I just
17:26
fast forwarded through parts that I could tell I was watching very closely. There's
17:30
not much coming going on. No, the parents Clay's parents conversation was probably
17:37
the most poignant of the entire season. I would say, oh totally.
17:42
And the editors knew that because they gave us forty five minutes of that scene
17:48
in which we were not going to be leaving anytime soon. I can't wait
17:52
that they even had it. I wonder, I mean, like that they
17:56
filmed it, that they caught something like they he caught that moment like that,
18:02
that scene I did not see coming. I didn't see it coming either.
18:07
And you know both his parents, they're both so charming, and you
18:12
know that his dad is obviously going to be a charmer because of his history,
18:17
right, and he definitely lived up to that. He also made it
18:19
very clear when he came to visit Clay on his wedding day what his running
18:26
stats were, to make sure we all knew. And the best was Clay
18:32
was all of us talking to us, our parents, talking to us about
18:33
the same story before a million times. Yeah yeah, yeah, you told
18:37
me that. Yeah I know that, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I
18:40
remember. You know. Like, so he got his running stats out there,
18:45
He gave him the pep talk, and I literally, for a brief
18:48
second forgot that his dad was really a horrible husband. And then later we
18:55
see his mother talking that incredible conversation between the two of them, with her
19:00
saying the likes of he brought to this wedding day, the baggage of you
19:07
not being a faithful husband in his questioning marriage and what that means is anything
19:11
sacred and you need to have a conversation with him about this in order for
19:17
him to like move on from this. And I thought that was an unbelievable
19:21
call out on her part because she obviously learned something about her son that she
19:26
probably didn't really know. Clay certainly, well, we all know Clay learned
19:30
us so much about himself, and obviously his dad must have learned something too,
19:38
And it'd be interesting to see that conversation later. But boy, talk
19:42
about being cut from the same cloth. On some level, I love that
19:45
Clay is trying to break the cycle, But what trash to have gotten to
19:52
that point. And I really didn't see it coming, I mean, and
19:55
again I didn't have any spoilers. So when Ad was walking down the aisle
19:59
and Clay was waiting, and they were kicking up there and they're like,
20:04
you know, they're about it, and I'm like, oh my god,
20:06
this is so cute, this is so cute. Wow, he's gonna say
20:07
yes, but they're going to break up later, Like I had it all
20:10
down, like they'll just break up later. That happened, Okay. I
20:12
knew they weren't together, but I just assumed they broke up after the wedding,
20:17
because why would you ever go through all this, oh man, just
20:22
to say no in that moment. Nasty, nasty behavior. It's really unforgivable.
20:27
That's why when you say that ad is still kind of fucking with Clay,
20:33
I'm like, she has no self worth. But we knew that.
20:37
We knew that because she did. She had said to him, mm hmm,
20:42
I don't deserve love. She said that those days came out of her
20:47
mouth. And currently in therapy and not talking about it. I know she
20:52
is. But if he is going to therapy, I could see maybe not
20:57
this minute, but maybe in like sense or something. Oh never, but
21:03
if you take this, I could see, like it is a wild circumstance
21:10
that you're under with this show, and I can see I just don't understand
21:17
why you couldn't have said it an hour before, but whatever. I also
21:22
don't know, like maybe the producers are like, no, you get to
21:26
the altar and then you can make the decision. Like I don't know how
21:29
much he was directed to. I think that in the past excellent TV,
21:33
right, it makes excellent TV. But in the past, from what I
21:37
understand, I think that the rules may have been exactly that, where like
21:41
they couldn't tell him up until the actual vows. But now I believe they've
21:47
lifted that, They've they've made some adjustments in the experiment emily to where which
21:53
is why, yeah, which is why you've got all these people cutting and
21:56
running out of those existential homes, you know, and yeah, and why
22:03
Jimmy and Chelsea were able to like call it quits. I believe that that's
22:07
the case. So he really didn't need to do that, And it's disgusting,
22:12
and I have no faith that he would ever change the amount that he
22:15
would need. And she's really the worst person for him, and he's the
22:18
worst person for her, and the reason why is that he plays to her
22:23
vulnerabilities and in a bad way, and and and she and vice versa,
22:32
because like her strengths. He does not complement those strengths, and he doesn't
22:38
bring her strengths out in a healthy way. For her, it's her all
22:42
giving, it's her giving of herself. It's her like like she said,
22:45
I feel like you grew a lot, like you said, but you sacrifice
22:48
me in the process, you know. Yeah, And now I'm thinking about
22:52
like all those pre wedding post pod times where it was like forever, like
23:00
Clay was not around, remember, and she was like, oh, I
23:06
set up this huge craft table, I did this whole thing, and he
23:10
didn't. He wasn't back last night. And he's like, I'm working.
23:12
I'm working so clearly like the Kig, He's like Vicky Goebelson. I did
23:15
love. I love the work efth that he has. I love that he's
23:18
got these jet skis, that he's got these properties. He's very yeah,
23:23
but I'm just saying they were not on the same page. No, and
23:26
it doesn't happen. He's saying, I don't know how I'll ever be faithful,
23:32
and I mean, like I'm not coming home for three days every he
23:34
was such a oh like looking back at the whole season of him being you
23:41
know, I just really feel like, I don't know if I can do
23:42
this because I'm I'm worried about the looks thing. And then she talked to
23:45
him off the ledge about that, and then he was like, yeah,
23:49
I just really can't go through this if you're not, you know, up
23:52
to par in the looks department. Then it was I'm just worried when they
23:56
get out. I'm just worried that I can't that I'm moreorried about disappointing you.
24:00
I'm worried that I I don't know if he said faithful, but I'm
24:03
worried that I that I'm going to repeat the patterns of my father. Essentially.
24:07
Yeah, yeah, I mean that's what he was saying, that he
24:11
was every other one sentence man. Yeah right, I mean it was it
24:15
was a red carpet of red flags that that she she wanted to see the
24:22
best. But I'm sorry, she just did not want to see it.
24:25
She chose not to see it, and she should not have stayed with him.
24:30
He was very clear, honestly, and she had fortunately wanted it bad.
24:34
She wanted it bad. I was giving them the benefit of the doubt
24:38
post show that maybe it was a good idea, but now no, it's
24:42
not a good idea. I love ad so much. She's the only one
24:48
I like on this show. I like Amy. Oh yeah, yeah,
24:55
you have to say it by the couple, because I can't do the one
24:56
named. I love Amy and Johnny and Amy. Amy's great. I mean,
25:03
really, really, really really loved Matt. He was such a sweetie.
25:07
What a catch? Oh gone too soon? You know, like between
25:12
the lines, you guys, he's the one. Oh what a fucking sociopath
25:19
nightmare? That was crazy Town, USA. That was what I had watched
25:27
a little bit of some prior season, so like, leading into this,
25:33
I just want to get a feel, like yeah, just to get a
25:37
vibe. And so then when I started season six fully to like, let's
25:41
get into this, I was like, I'm glad I had some kind of
25:45
checks and balances because this guy is bonkers. Okay, he looks like a
25:53
guy that would have been on or I swear he already was on the Bachelorette.
25:57
You know, he looks like one of those crazy contestants on the Bachelorette.
26:00
I swear he was. He's so really no, he wasn't. But
26:04
I'm just saying there was a guy that was crazy like that that looked a
26:08
lot like him, and it just they're all cut from the same quot I
26:12
swear these crazy people. I did read that he wasn't just walking out of
26:18
people when he was like in the pods, you know, like, yeah,
26:21
he'd ask you a question. Oh they that edited that. Yeah,
26:23
they that's coming from the people that he was the women that he was talking
26:27
to, like, yeah, he didn't just do that, Okay, but
26:33
you know it's funny. That was great. But what I think happened was
26:37
he was a fucking asshole and the editors were like, you know what,
26:40
we're just going to play this up. Yeah, so you know, like
26:44
the producers are like, this guy's cuckoo and we're just going to lean into
26:48
this. Like he would run down like this is what you want. This
26:51
is the moment. I'm not here to be a seedless celebrity. This is
26:52
the moment. This is what you want. You want the moment, Oh
26:56
my god. Oh that was wild when he was like the audience loves an
27:02
underdog, and they're on my side this time. You know, at this
27:04
point, right he was saying yes, yes, creep, creep, And
27:08
so here's the thing. He liked a d right, and he liked that
27:15
other girl that ended up leaving ju Amber Amber Amber Amber. Yeah, but
27:21
like he liked a d and right. Yeah, he said the exact same
27:29
thing to both of them. Yeah about like a map, I'll find you
27:33
in this place. Let's get out of here. We can leave right now,
27:36
like verbatim. That's so, that's terrifying. I mean the fact that
27:42
he was being filmed and he thought he could get away with this, and
27:47
he kept saying, I'm being filmed. I mean if I did that,
27:51
I'm like, yeah, right, you did it, Yeah, you did
27:53
it. He must have been angling for villain and to be put on another
28:00
show, or like what if they do a Love is Blind Island like a
28:04
Bachelor. Yeah, Love is Blind Island, Love is Blind Island on Long
28:11
Island, Love is Blindling and Long Island. I mean, I think they've
28:17
had six seasons. They could probably do it by now, and I think
28:19
that they would be stupid not to. I mean, everybody loves this show,
28:23
so, I mean it really is like the new version of the Bachelor,
28:27
essentially because the stakes are so high. To me, yeah, I
28:33
can watch this more than The Bachelor for some reason, I think because the
28:36
Bachelor's so long, Like an episode is so long, So if you miss
28:41
an episode, you're looking at four hours till you're current because you got to
28:45
watch that episode and this episode. Right. Yeah, that's my main beef
28:52
with the Bachelor. Yeah you've always said that. Yeah, what you're being
28:56
able said, we said it, so okay, So Matthew Lee's we talked
29:03
about Johnny n Amy, We touched a little on Clay and a D.
29:08
Why don't we just continue with Clay and a d uh at this point and
29:12
then we'll get into the rest. So, well, is there anything else
29:21
we need to say about that? About Clay and a D. No,
29:23
I mean are great. The mother, Oh my god, eighties mom is
29:27
awesome. When she was like laid it down at that they both are,
29:33
but eighties mom laying it down to Clay just matter of fact, like oh
29:37
that doesn't need to be you like, oh and that like that long talk
29:41
they had when Clay went away for forty five minutes. Yeah, and then
29:45
the mom was like just giving this great lecture. I was like, I
29:52
love her. I mean literally, both of their mothers were characters that you
29:57
see in movie that you know, like that's the type of dialogue you write
30:03
when you want to write a monologue from an inspired you know, she's lived
30:11
her life, she's wise beyond her years, loving, perfect mother like that's
30:15
they both had that on some level. And I just like the mothers,
30:22
the mothers, they were so great. Now let's see here, Oh boy
30:32
AD's mom. Her body is really amazing. And I was like, holy
30:36
shit, like she looks great. So after the vows happened, and after
30:41
the mom and the dad talk and stuff like that, Clay went and talked
30:47
to a d and she's just crying and crying and crying. And it was
30:52
wild to me that he was like even when he was denied her in that
30:56
moment after she read her vows that he was like I can't do this,
31:00
I can't go into marriage. That he was like, but I don't want
31:04
to, like stop dating you or whatever. That was such a weird transition.
31:11
And then again in the wedding suite, like the bridal suite, I
31:15
should say, will while they were talking and he was like, come on,
31:18
you know you're gonna have to, you know, run away from me.
31:21
And she was just so devastated and crying. And then to see those
31:26
little girls that were the flower girls. I didn't like that, did not
31:30
like that. No, those little girls did not need to be in there.
31:33
We're we've already we already know, like there's an impact going on when
31:38
you were a kid and you see something like I wish that. I mean,
31:42
they obviously saw the whole thing happen in front of them, but they
31:45
didn't have to be in that room. Yeah, I wish they wouldn't have
31:49
seen that happen in front of them. But what are you going to do?
31:52
That's what makes me angry at Clay because when there's kids involved here,
31:57
you have to take in to account that and I you know, he did
32:01
say at the end, I didn't realize how serious this whole thing is.
32:06
And you know, there was two ways that I was trying to figure out
32:08
how to take that. I was like, is he so stupid that he's
32:12
talking about like marriage. He can't be because he just knows how serious it
32:16
is. That's why he pulled out. He must have been talking about the
32:19
show, like how serious everything is, and everyone's reacting so big that he
32:24
was surprised. It's almost like it took him off guard that everyone was so
32:30
incredibly devastated of what he did when he probably thought like, well, this
32:35
is the show. We're just we're also doing a show here, so you
32:37
can't take it that serious. I mean, why are you being like this?
32:40
Did you get that vibe? I did get that vibe. I also
32:45
got the vibe that he wasn't maybe fully saying it, but he kind of
32:49
teased it that he didn't want to intermingle their finances. Oh yeah, that
32:53
beat the money thing, yes, And I was like, I get it.
32:58
You don't know these people, you just all of them, all of
33:01
the couples. Like that's when to me, it would get much more real
33:06
than the wedding. It's like, okay, stranger here, let's like,
33:12
let me be responsible for your debt, you know what I mean? Like
33:15
that, I honestly didn't even think about that. And you make such a
33:17
great point. Why didn't we have a moment where they signed prenups? Yeah,
33:23
prenups or just some kind I mean, they could always everybody could get
33:29
that annult they're you know, so again, I'm kind of like, you
33:32
didn't have to humiliate her, But I feel like I feel like that was
33:38
really weighing on him. Is the financial part of it, because he's he's
33:44
working towards this thing, and maybe eighty is too, but it's gonna cost
33:49
him to help her. And he's like, I don't I didn't sign up
33:52
for this. Well, he's a selfish asshole, you know. I mean,
33:55
yeah, That's what also bothered me, is like I don't know her
33:59
finances. I'm like, yeah, they could be bigger and better than yours,
34:01
you know, like you don't just know her finances. And I think
34:06
that's why I got scared. Allegendly, I'm making this up out of my
34:09
head. I'm not even saying I allegedly because I'm making this up, but
34:13
I that is the vibe I got with, like there's a lot going on,
34:19
but I think something really got real for him. And then he was
34:22
like I'm out. And also an excuse. I mean it's also excuses.
34:27
He's got a million excuses, you know. I mean, there's no excuse
34:30
for the level of humiliation that she went through because of him. That especially
34:35
if he had a choice to not do it, which he did so.
34:38
Oh, by the way, wedding license, so that takes, like I
34:45
want to say, it takes like thirty days. No, it's good for
34:47
thirty days. Okay, never mind. I was thinking maybe the marriage when
34:52
they got married wouldn't have been valid anyway because their wedding license wouldn't have been
34:59
signed. But that being said, you know what I mean, giving them
35:04
an out, like they would do it for TV, but it wouldn't actually
35:07
be real. But what I'm saying is now I'm kind of pushing that aside
35:10
on my own because if they did do wedding licenses, then they would have
35:15
been valid. But because I do remember somebody saying, yeah it was Ad.
35:19
She was like something about the wedding licenses and they have to sign them
35:22
or something like that. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, they did have to
35:25
do that. Yeah, that's what an alment's for. Also, yeah,
35:31
okay, so that was devastating and I really really really you know, the
35:37
reunions. Next week, we'll talk about what's going on. We'll have more
35:42
updates on like where they are now, but also where they are in real,
35:45
real, real real time, you know. So we'll we'll move off
35:51
of Ad and Clay and why don't we Oh my god, okay, so
35:58
should we just get into Elsa and Jimmy and Jimmy and Jessica like that whole
36:01
thing Jeremy. You want to get into Jeremy. Jeremy and Jimmy and Johnny
36:08
and Johnny, Yeah, Jeremy and Chelseay, Jimmy and No no no,
36:16
no, no no no, Army and Laura. Yeah, Jeremy and Laura,
36:21
Jimmy and Chelsea and Chelsea. Okay, yeah, I just mentioned Jimmy
36:24
and Jessica because there there's the whole thing that I want to talk about too.
36:30
Yes, So all right, well okay, well why don't we talk
36:36
about Jeremy and Laura and just get them out of the way, because there's
36:37
not that much to talk about. But night okay, Okay, that was
36:45
my favorite line ever. I mean, like first of all, just the
36:50
delivery of it, like he's kind of a psychopath, but it was sort
36:53
of funny night okay, which is very matter of fact, like let's get
36:59
to know each other, like let's see what makes us tick, Let's see
37:01
what will really drive us to our edge. And these are the types of
37:06
conversations that, like I think would be incredible to have with somebody before you
37:10
commit, Like can you agree to not doing this, this and the other
37:15
thing? Because these things drive me crazy? You know, leaving dishes in
37:19
the sink a freak. You know, those are the types of things that
37:22
I kind of like, both drove me fucking crazy. I yeah, what
37:27
I wanted to root for her. I absolutely didn't root for him, but
37:32
I was just like, you can't just keep bitching about everything and then you
37:39
should. Like she was just mean, pinky, constantly mean, sarcastic,
37:47
patronizing, horrible, horrible person. What don't even remember? And then she
37:57
got to his house and realized, no, he's as clean as he said.
38:00
He was probably more than you, probably more than yeah. Anyway,
38:04
anticipated she like lost all the gas because she was like, oh, I'm
38:08
not gonna be able to bitch about this right, And then it was like
38:14
he was two. Yeah, it was like pick a lane. Oh my
38:17
god. She was awful. Her Everything that came out of her mouth was
38:22
so mean and so cringing, cringey. Her family hates her like her family
38:30
was. Her dad was like, yeah, you mean you true to lack
38:32
a princess. She'll walk all over you. And her mom's like, I'm
38:37
terrified of her, but you know what, I born her. I born
38:42
her, but she's mine. But you know what she gone. She done
38:45
the devil y'all. I mean, these people fucking hate her and they're like,
38:52
you have my blessing because we don't want to deal with her anymore.
38:59
Yes, I didn't want to and I didn't like Jeremy. Jeremy was terrible.
39:05
And then to come to find out that he just when I was coming
39:07
around to him because she was so mean, I was starting to come around
39:12
to him, just as him being like the battered you know, husband and
39:15
I until I found out later that he obviously what he did with Sarah Ann
39:22
and then finding out that he had like a fiance right before he came on
39:25
the show, right, and then he's like, yeah, so he picks
39:32
Laura over Sarah Anne in the pods and then then he gets a DM from
39:40
her that's like, hey, if you change your mind, and then he
39:44
hearts it. What were your thoughts on that? Well? If I mean,
39:50
okay, in the real like, yeah, it was a shitty thing.
39:52
I would not appreciated a heart response from my fiance right in this context.
39:59
Right that said, it's a really weird situation. He's just been screamed
40:07
at for wearing a Hawaiian shirt. Oh my god, Oh that's right.
40:10
She hates this Hawaiian shirt so much. That was sad. It was just
40:16
bizarre. I was so glad that her sister was like, it's a way
40:22
to express yourself. Yeah, she's like, he's kind of being ironic,
40:24
you fucking idiot, Like, yes, it's bringing back the Hawaiian shirts and
40:30
making them fun again. And then I think it was their brother in law
40:32
that was like, I like a well fitted Hawaiian shirt. Yeah. And
40:37
I again, I really liked her in the pod because she was such a
40:42
supportive person in the pod and really like, I just really liked her vibe.
40:47
I just can't believe like once they got out of there, either she
40:51
was on ultra defense mode because she maybe was getting signals and not knowing how
40:55
to express herself, or she's a nightmare, or she's nightmare is a wrong
41:02
word for it. No, she's a nightmare. She's a night her family
41:07
hates her. Okay. Everything that came out of her mouth was just so
41:14
can you imagine what it would be like in her life? Impossible to please
41:19
in this situation. I would like to think she was trying to convince her
41:22
sister. She's like, but seriously, the Hawaiian shirt's, like you don't
41:25
she was, are you, yeah, you're right? With all seriousness,
41:30
Well, regardless even if she's not that bad, which is probably not that
41:34
bad, I started to think she's the one who's actually sabotaging this, much
41:38
like Clay was sabotaging it. So she maybe was the one sabotaging it,
41:44
sabotaging it so she could get out of this situation. Like maybe she really
41:47
wasn't there for the right reasons, or she wasn't like she just this guy
41:52
is not opening up, and she's just like the only way maybe also in
41:58
fairness, maybe the only way he was responding is when she was doing this
42:01
jabbing. Otherwise he was checked out. I don't know, because he was
42:07
kind of like like hard to access after the pods like that dude, Marcus
42:13
was like impossible to access once he had his cell phone. Who was Marcus?
42:16
Who are you talking about? No, you're talking about Kenneth. Oh
42:20
Kenneth, Yeah, oh my god, yes, Kenneth. Yeah, he
42:25
was impossible the principal, right, yes, yes, once he got yeah,
42:30
he wouldn't speak at all to anybody. Yeah, okay, that's okay,
42:37
we'll go to them next. But Jeremy ended up hanging out with Sarah
42:39
Anne until five am. Then he comes home and is like, yeah,
42:45
I did I hung out with Sarah Ann, And what is your problem,
42:50
gold Cup? You know, like it just was like, no, wet,
42:53
we weren't at the bar, we were in the parking lot. I'm
42:55
like, that's yea worse yes, yes, yeah, yeah, so yeah,
43:04
this guy's nuts. And then having that, like I did not expect
43:07
again watching this for the first time, that they would have these like get
43:10
togethers where they all would show up and now it's like you're with all these
43:15
people that you were dating in the pods and that was a whole other level.
43:19
Like these freaking weird ass barbecues where people are going off on one on
43:22
ones in front of each other. I mean, they really throw everything at
43:27
this show. It's awkward as how. Sarah Ann shows up, She's like,
43:30
I don't care, I don't care what I did. You guys,
43:35
I don't care. To me, says I'm glad I said that, Tom,
43:37
I'm glad I did. Let's go on the jet skis, fuck you
43:42
guys, and they're just like, like, since said that, he handled
43:45
it horribly, But I don't know the status of those two now, but
43:50
he's like, when I look back and I watched the jet ski scene,
43:52
yeah that was terrible, Like, well, I don't know, see,
43:58
a jet ski is like a room buy and I always need to have two
44:00
running at the same time. So I knew that if I couldn't get Laura
44:04
out there because she was so pissed off at me and we broke off our
44:07
engagement, that I had to get someone out there going. I did love
44:10
the two rumas going. I thought that was really funny. Yeah, all
44:15
right, let's talk about Brittany and Kenneth. This was really really fucking crazy
44:21
to me. This poor girl did not know what she was in for.
44:25
Like, I feel like Brittany really got her and little southern ass handed to
44:30
her right quick and did not deserve to be on this show. Did not.
44:35
She was the only really vulnerable one in the whole bunch. Everyone else
44:40
can take it, everyone else can be but she seemed like she's gonna need
44:46
to go away for a while after this. And I'm not trying to be
44:51
mean, I just like I genuinely was concerned for her in that kitchen,
44:55
in the weird existential housing that doesn't exist, like it's another dimension where they
45:00
were purgatory. But she's in there and Kenneth, who is just like from
45:08
the jump when they leave the pods, is completely disinterested, is not physical
45:15
is they're on these boats. She's like, yeah, look at this,
45:19
look at this. And then when I was little, this in that and
45:21
he's like, mmm, on his phone, she starts talking about she sees
45:25
a dolphin. He's like, oh my god, a dolphin. Oh when
45:28
I was a kid. And I'm like, he didn't even have his phone
45:30
yet then, but he was right, he might as well. He might
45:34
he might as well. He just tune out. But then the dolphins got
45:37
him. I was like, Oh, there's there's hope, there's life.
45:39
And then I was like, well, maybe he's like I don't know,
45:44
I don't know. I didn't know what was going on. Okay, and
45:46
a dolphin tea chain. He was real excited. But I was like,
45:50
there's the life back in him that she obviously fell in love with. Maybe
45:54
he was just having a bad day because I had high hopes for them.
45:58
I actually did then, and to see that he was clearly checked out,
46:02
I was like, what is he so disappointed in? You know? I
46:07
think that he was thinking about getting back with his girlfriend. Yeah right,
46:15
yeah, because he made back off. I'll be right over coming it's over
46:19
now. I think he was in over his I think he was also there
46:28
for the right reasons, and I think he was in over his head the
46:30
second this thing started and then he was like wait, I don't It was
46:36
interesting too, because like they had to follow him once those two kind of
46:40
locked in and they were having a good time not seeing each other, and
46:45
then the second that after that moment, it was like he, I just
46:51
don't think he was attracted to her. Hm, Okay, I think you
46:54
know what I mean, Like, I think that that happens. Love is
46:58
not blind Russell. This situation, yeah, yeah, that was sad and
47:04
he was trying. That's the I think out of everybody, you could really
47:08
see him trying and she was already there and it was kind of sad.
47:15
It was so sad because it was so one sided. Yeah, but I
47:21
just don't know about him. I don't know if he was there for the
47:22
right reasons. Now. I'm not sure no one is there for the right
47:27
reasons. That's that's true. I will do you think, but doesn't do
47:31
anything. Britney was there for the right reasons. She might be the only
47:36
one. She's so naive and young and like, yeah, I don't know.
47:45
I mean they who knows what the right reasons are. I mean I
47:50
could see if you've been I mean, there is an adventure to it.
47:54
I think everybody wants an adventure. What are the wrong reasons? I don't
47:59
know. Well it's the fifteen minutes. Yeah, but it's like two opportunity
48:06
money. Well, the wrong reasons are fame, opportunity money, potential branding
48:16
everything. I mean you, yeah, it's not that. It's not a
48:21
matter of like, you might not make a ton of money doing the show,
48:22
but you will make money from having this name and this credit, so
48:27
then you have potential opportunities elsewhere. But what bothered me about this was because
48:35
I couldn't get a handle on why he was sabotaging it. And that's obviously
48:39
what he was doing. I don't think that he really needed to be on
48:42
his phone that much. He was so disinterested, and she's like, you
48:47
getta unpack, cameras are here. It felt like she was his mother.
48:55
Like I think he got annoyed. I think he must have just been annoyed
48:58
because she started to get annoyed. She was like, make sure you don't
49:00
stay on that phone too long, and then it was insting to be with
49:05
someone you're not attracted to, Like I can't do. It's like if I'm
49:09
like dating some if I back when I was dating, I feel like,
49:15
even if I really liked the person, if I wasn't attracted to them,
49:17
that's gonna like it's just not going to work. Love is not blind,
49:22
and that's what I've No, it's sure, this fuck isn't. We're a
49:25
couple of scientists and we figured it out. Yeah it's not that hard,
49:29
you know. Yeah, so okay, I've been the greatest person, but
49:37
not for him. Yeah, it was sad about Brittany. Was Brittany?
49:44
All right? So now let's let's go up and talk about Jimmy and Jessica.
49:51
Jessica the gal who we were just talking about in our news portion on
49:57
the podcast about how I went to her Instagram and saw that she's got like
50:00
five hundred and fifty forty thousand followers and she's labeled herself a comedian, and
50:08
she says that the reason why she didn't bring up her daughter at all to
50:16
any of these dates until like what ten in because being a mother doesn't define
50:23
me. But as she said, it's the It is the most important thing
50:30
in her life and the proudest thing that she's ever accomplished, But it doesn't
50:37
define her. To me, that is a definition of who you are.
50:40
The biggest part of your life is part of who you are, and it
50:45
does define you. By not sharing that she is a child, when the
50:50
first two dates is the most third date, that's a fairness too far.
50:57
It should be at the Honestly, in this situation, it should be on
51:00
the first date. Okay, you can agree. I agree. I don't
51:07
mind. I know. I'm think, well, it's hard because I don't
51:09
have a kid, So I think you've got judgment I do. I think
51:16
unforgivable if you don't do it after the third, understandable if you do it's
51:22
the third. I think I would have done it this second. It's it
51:27
makes it feel like a dirty little secret, which is a gross feeling to
51:30
have when you're talking about your child and it feels like a bamboozle. It
51:34
feels like you've surprised me. And I think her point being like, I
51:37
want I understand her thinking, and I think it's just naive, but and
51:43
it's stupid. So I don't agree with it. But I understand what she's
51:46
trying to say, but I don't believe it's right. And that is this
51:50
I don't want to be defined by I don't want you to judge me.
51:54
I don't want you to make a decision about me until you see how sparkling
51:59
in dazzling I am, and let the mother thing tarnish it. I want
52:06
you to fall in love with my sparkling personality first, so that you know
52:10
that I'm worth it, that the child thing won't matter because I'm worth it.
52:15
And it's like, no, it doesn't work that way. You're you're
52:20
actually you're not being honest, and yeah, you're right. It should have
52:25
been the first first out because it is something that it's like, it is
52:31
weird, you're right, It makes it a weird secret, like, well,
52:37
why didn't you tell me right away? What else is there? What
52:40
else is there? And also you have to understand that the other person would
52:45
like to know they're either open to being a parent a step parent, or
52:52
they're not, and that's really important. That's why it's so shocking to me
52:55
that they didn't have that conversation. I would think that no matter how how
53:00
old you are, you'd be like, do you have any kids now?
53:01
Do you? Yes? You know, like do you want to have kids?
53:06
That that would be in the first couple of conversations. So it's very,
53:10
very weird, and that she's literally saying my husband before she even tells
53:19
him about her child, Like she's yelling that it's true. Yeah, it's
53:23
pretty psychotic, and she's, uh, oh, yeah, she wrote this
53:31
letter to her husband, her future husband, and uh he reads it.
53:37
She gives it to him, he reads it, and then he's like,
53:39
I don't know if I can tell you exactly what you want at this point,
53:44
and she's like, I don't like this, and then the next thing
53:49
you know, it's there. He's torn between two people, Jessica and Chelsea,
53:52
and I love that. She was like, I don't like this.
53:54
You're torn between two people. That's blasphemy. It's blasphemy between the Holy Spirit?
54:06
Yeah, God? Right? Is he torn between two people? Yeah?
54:09
Is he torn between God and you? Or is he saying that you
54:15
might be God? Is that what he's saying. I don't I don't get
54:19
this. I mean, that was hilarious to me. And then he's like,
54:23
well, you're using big words, and I never dated no one who
54:28
used big words like that. I typically let somebody tell I typically date someone
54:34
lets me tell them, like what to do and where to go. So
54:43
and then her rebuttal for him, not like choosing her, was when you
54:49
see me, when you see what you missed out on, you are going
54:53
to choke. You aren't going to need an EPI pen to open your airways
54:58
because you won't believe what you've missed out on. I mean I did like
55:02
that. I did like it too. I did love it. I loved
55:07
it. I love it. I loved it. Yeah, I mean because
55:12
she wasn't wrong. I mean she was dropped dead gorse. I mean it
55:15
was so funny the the comparison to the Megan foxing, because I'm like,
55:21
she's the Megan Fox you know, yeah, totally. Oh my god.
55:30
So they had when they had their one on one later, can you please
55:35
tell me? I swear he said, well, you're still my number one?
55:38
I swear he said that, what the fuck are you serious? I
55:42
did he'd said that, like, what does that even mean? I don't
55:46
know you had a kid, because she had a kid, is that what
55:50
he meant. But he also said he said in an interview which I saw,
55:53
which is that Jessica got a really good edit for the last date that
56:00
they had, because she was like, yeah, yeah, baby, she
56:10
was I guess reading and for filth, like for hours or just being so
56:15
mean and awful, and he was like, she got a really good at
56:20
it apparent, yeah, which is why he ended up choosing Chelsea because she
56:27
was so mad. Jessica was so mad that he hadn't chosen someone yet because
56:30
that was the date. Remember when everyone was just like bringing a bunch of
56:34
shit to the date and like, here's some fucking h here's like a feather
56:37
and a toothpick and my old you know, baby shoes and some sushi.
56:42
It's like what the fuck? Like, oh, here's we're gonna play uno,
56:47
and and also here's a white dove. Will you marry me? I'm
56:52
like, this is the most fucked up show I've ever seen in my life.
56:58
So weird. Yeah, and I didn't bring whoa look at this?
57:06
You're gonna have some sushi. It was also weird because it was as though
57:09
these guys had picked out these items for them when it was really probably like
57:14
some prop person. I also kept feeling so bad for all the pas I
57:19
had to hustle those metal cups everywhere for people wash. I kept thinking God,
57:24
yeah yeah, and like, oh, no you you were supposed to
57:30
bring the metal cups to the amusement park. No you were. And then
57:35
they got to like, oh I still had two of my trunk from the
57:37
last shoot. Let's just use the right. They're disgusting. They have not
57:42
been washed. They're bringing them from cracker barrel to the parking lot. Was
57:46
there Anne and Jeremy just in case they filmed? There? These fucking gold
57:51
medal cups. Yeah, loud as ship when they fall like so loud forget,
57:58
It's like, we need to do this. I'm not gonna give my
58:01
not. I want to drink wine on it. Don't take mine like Chelsea
58:07
will give you your gold cut back. No, I want it. Also
58:14
red Flag. Is anyone who laughed at the Love is Wine bottles? I
58:19
was like nope, I couldn't, couldn't get off the floor totally my sense
58:22
of humor. Oh awful, awful? Yep, Well are we gonna talk
58:30
about Chelsea? Yeah, let's get Chelsea? Okay? Our favorite is she
58:36
your favorite to like love and hate, I mean both of those two.
58:40
I don't know. It's definitely one of my strongest dislikes. I mean right
58:46
right, I really liked Amy and I really liked Ady, and then I
58:52
really liked I liked Laura in the pod and then that all change. Chelsea.
58:59
I was like, this is a loose can I'm here, Yeah,
59:04
Also put your shoes on, Like, and what is with those plastic like
59:08
Cinderella? Everybody was wearing those I know why, I don't know. Everybody's
59:16
wearing a muted jewel tone outfit and a basic cut and like no patterns or
59:24
prints. It was all depressing. And those fucking shoes clear shoes. If
59:32
I have to see Chelsea cry and like try and try and find her other
59:37
shoe in a room that is like four by six, it's not that far
59:44
away, I'll die. I'll freak. Okay, I'll freak, I'll freak,
59:51
I'll freak, I'll freak, I'll freak, I'll go serial killer.
1:00:00
So she was boring a shit, So I oh, I'm not gonna say
1:00:05
anything good about him, but I mean, do you think, like why
1:00:08
Jessica. Jessica and Chelsea both really vied with Jimmy and it must have been
1:00:15
like they must have thought he was super hot because of his voice. Like
1:00:20
I, if I heard his voice, I wouldn't have thought that he looked
1:00:22
the way he would have. I would have pictured tall, dark and handsome,
1:00:28
definitely built, kind of like a lovable teddy bear, but really sexy,
1:00:34
and that would be super chill and like so I could see them falling
1:00:39
for his voice, thinking that there's something there. But well, I also
1:00:45
think in those pods, I don't know how much Chelsea and Jessica in their
1:00:50
life have had a dude be interested in what they're saying and listening to them
1:00:55
and providing feedback in a reasonable manner with him them. It seems like maybe
1:01:02
they don't have those kind of interactions off it. So anybody that's going to
1:01:08
remember details and then call them back and think that they're interesting, I mean,
1:01:15
all bets are off which I that is obviously the point of this,
1:01:19
and that's why Jessica wanted to do this because she obviously doesn't want people just
1:01:23
taking her for her looks, right, And Chelsea wants this because she doesn't
1:01:35
want to be taking advantage of her looks either, Right, she doesn't want
1:01:38
them to run away from the incessant talking and laughing. God, she laughed
1:01:51
at everything Trevor and Jimmy said, and Jimmie loved it. He's like us,
1:01:55
I know, so did Trevor. That's just as I know, my
1:02:01
god. Cherio Terry had that great quote. I've probably said it before,
1:02:07
which is she said in some interview, guys always say they want to girl
1:02:12
with a sense of humor, but what they really want is a girl with
1:02:14
big tits that laughs at their jokes. We're so perfect. That is so
1:02:19
perfect because like Cherio Terry is like one of the funniest people on the planet.
1:02:22
And she's like, yeah, no, they are not interested. That's
1:02:27
exactly right, that is one hundred percent right, Yeah, yeah, Oh
1:02:30
my god, So jim Jimmy. Finally, when Chelsea's torn between Trevor and
1:02:37
Jimmy and then she goes into that date, there was like all that,
1:02:42
you know, built up, uh, not animosity, but built up suspense
1:02:47
because we weren't sure that if she was going to choose Jimmy or Trevor,
1:02:52
and so we see them both waiting in the pods and then finally she goes
1:02:55
in and she sits with Jimmy and you're like, oh, wow, okay,
1:02:58
so she's choosing him, and but she's expecting him to say, like
1:03:02
I want to break up. So he's like, well, I love you,
1:03:10
let's play checkers or shit, shit, we don't have we can't see
1:03:15
each other. And then she's I mean the amount of times this girl's like
1:03:20
I almost passed out. I almost she's like she's a little too transparent.
1:03:23
She's like, I almost shit my pants, Like shit myself just now.
1:03:29
I almost just shit. I almost like just dribbled in my fucking drawers,
1:03:35
just like shit streamed like soft serve. Holy you just said you love me.
1:03:47
I don't. I don't even know. I just oh, my god,
1:03:51
like I just threw up. Well I just threw up in my mouth
1:03:55
and on my shoe. I can't find the other one. But I'm oh,
1:04:00
I didn't even know what to say. Oh. And like the fact
1:04:03
that she wasn't like I love you back was so weird too. And to
1:04:09
think about this woman, know, it was great, and she held the
1:04:13
like she held everything in her hands between Trevor, this like love triangle between
1:04:18
Trevor and Jimmy and her, and it was like it was her. It
1:04:25
was just so funny to me. I feel like I couldn't get past the
1:04:29
Megan Fox thing. I couldn't get back the way that was the worst thing
1:04:32
she was done. It wasn't that I don't think. I actually do think
1:04:36
she looks I do believe people probably have said that to her because she's a
1:04:41
flight attendant on a flight of all the people on the plane, Sure she
1:04:45
looks like Megan Fox. Fine, But it was the fact that to me,
1:04:49
she broke the rules and I couldn't get past that. And then on
1:04:54
top of that, it was not accurate right to a t. It really
1:05:00
she threw things off. Yeah, and so I never quite got past that.
1:05:05
And I know, but I also don't think that she deserved the full
1:05:12
on blowout in the news and everything. I felt bad about that. I
1:05:15
do feel bad about that. Yeah, I don't like that. However,
1:05:19
she did set herself up, and I think, what I didn't even think
1:05:23
about that, what you're saying about breaking the rules. But that's exactly why
1:05:28
I was upset about it. I just couldn't articulate. I couldn't figure it
1:05:31
out because it's like, well, what are you doing? You're now you're
1:05:34
painting a picture of what you look like. That's against what this whole process
1:05:40
is about. And not only that, but you've set yourself up to fail
1:05:44
because you're going to walk out there and you're not going to be anything like
1:05:47
what someone would expect. He's gonna want to see the exact, you know,
1:05:53
carbon copy of Megan Fox in order to make that point stick. And
1:05:56
it's not. I do see what you're saying too, Like, I agree.
1:05:59
I think she's got a lot of similarities. It's the the eyes and
1:06:02
the eyebrows and the dark hair, and you know there are and there are
1:06:15
there are there are enough similarities there are. I get that. Like,
1:06:18
yes, some buddy on a flight one time said, you look like that
1:06:24
girl from Transformers, right, yeah, So also what is his name that
1:06:31
Megan Fox who she was married to, Brian Austin Green. Yeah, so
1:06:36
she commented he did, oh yeah, oh yeah, he's like he said
1:06:42
something along the lines of like, well, those are pretty high standards.
1:06:46
She's one of the most beautiful people in the world. It's kind of hard
1:06:49
to look like her or something like that. You made some comment it was
1:06:54
kid gloves and nice, but I mean it was somebody asking him, like,
1:06:58
oh, somebody asked, okay, yeah, last thing I need is
1:07:02
him weighing in on women's looks. Okay, you just you go ahead and
1:07:06
do your thing. But like didn't she say bag, like married to Bag
1:07:12
or something like that, or no, she said right, she made it
1:07:17
a she had an action like she she acted like she couldn't think of Megan
1:07:21
Fox's name, yeah because she she yeah, or she was like giving a
1:07:27
clue when it's like you're already Why would you give a clue if you're just
1:07:30
gonna paint a picture of it? It was so weird, okay whatever.
1:07:34
Yeah, So Jimmy says it was a roller coaster and he almost went home.
1:07:42
And then Chelsea's like, oh, I'm not happy to hear that,
1:07:45
which is the roller coaster that Jimmy starts to put her on, which is
1:07:48
like I love you. Yeah, I almost went home, you know.
1:07:54
And and also when she told him that she had been married before, and
1:07:57
he was like, crickets, cricket, and she's like hello, you know,
1:08:03
I'm like I'm sweating and I can't find my shoe and I just pissed
1:08:06
my pants. Are you there? And he's like, well, it's not
1:08:11
the worst thing I've been told today. And she's like, okay, so
1:08:15
you know, he just and then he bounces back and is like it doesn't
1:08:20
matter at all, all right, and then they so anyway, they meet,
1:08:26
they go to the Dominican Republic. Everyone's the Dominican Republic, the DR
1:08:30
And the first scene we see of them is like Jimmy talking about Jessica to
1:08:34
her. How He's like, Hey, why'd you run your big fucking mouth
1:08:39
when you went out and told people that I said I loved you because I
1:08:43
was like needed to kind of break up with that other girl, and she
1:08:46
already done then no, then done new So she was all attitude and I
1:08:54
was all huh and then I'm all like shit, and it just was real
1:08:58
uncomfortable. And I also fucking almost bit my face off when I was eating
1:09:03
taketos. Remember already said that yes, yes, yes, you need to
1:09:09
take it down and odds, Jimmy, no, I kinda got it because
1:09:15
and I again not a fan of him either, but Chelsea was relentless and
1:09:20
I very in a different way from Laura. Chelsea wasn't bitching about everything.
1:09:26
She was just so insecure. Yeah, and the only way she could get
1:09:30
his attention and validation was to have these blowouts where she was like sobbing for
1:09:35
affirmation and I was like, I can't keep doing this. He looks like
1:09:41
a thumb. Why are you so upset? Why do you need this?
1:09:45
Like, I mean, I should take it a step further. His personality
1:09:49
was that of a thumb. It was that of a thumb. At like
1:09:54
he was. There was nothing about him that was like worth needing to make
1:09:59
sure that he I thought you were the greatest person on the planet at all
1:10:01
times. Ever, could never fill that metal cup of Chelsea. He could
1:10:06
never fill that metal I mean, she she's never gonna have that enough validation.
1:10:11
I hope she gets counseling so she understands how to Like actually, I
1:10:15
heard that she was in therapy. I did hear that. Wow, Emily,
1:10:19
He's never responded faster with more passion in your life, Jesus. I
1:10:25
mean he needs it too. I mean, but like when he went out
1:10:28
to that birthday and then for one in like one hour or ninety minutes,
1:10:34
he went to a birthday of his friend and she lost her mind and then
1:10:40
called him out for sleeping with his friend. Oh God, that was so
1:10:43
great, which was supposed to be secret love. It was supposed to be
1:10:46
secret. He's like, damn, you're cold. I told you that so
1:10:50
that you wouldn't ruin my best friends, My friends would benefits a lover,
1:10:57
why'd you'd gone? Don't do that girl? And that was the And she
1:11:02
had so many points. It's like, yes, of course I have a
1:11:05
problem with these two girlfriends that you made me hang out with. You've totally
1:11:10
fucked her, Like what are you doing? You? And then we find
1:11:13
out that they talk all day, they text all day, They're like facetiming.
1:11:17
He's like, well, that's what you do with friends with benefits.
1:11:20
What's wrong? And she's like, I'm you're soon to be wife. Like
1:11:25
what are you doing? He's like you drunk? Of course I am.
1:11:27
They keep handing me these gold chalices filled with love is wine? What am
1:11:30
I supposed to do? And so I cut her off. She ain't gonna
1:11:35
fuck me, So you tell me what I'm supposed to do with this friend
1:11:39
with benefits? Oh my god, unbelievable. Then that day that they had
1:11:54
a great with ay, they go pick out their wedding dresses. It's like,
1:11:57
say yes to the dress all of a sudden, Oh my god,
1:12:00
Oh my god, you look like a princess. I'm crying. This is
1:12:03
my moment. And then and then they're picking out wedding music that day or
1:12:12
whatever day it was. I don't know, I'm in We're in the void
1:12:15
at this point. And then Jimmy and she and Jimmy are just sitting there
1:12:19
and Chelsea's like, they leave a cliffhanger that she might not want to move
1:12:25
forward with the wedding last week. Then we pick it up and she's like,
1:12:31
never felt more comfortable and never felt more confident and I was in our
1:12:35
life and he's like, yeah, I just feel like you are the one
1:12:44
and only one that I will not go to the altar whip. What are
1:12:53
you kidding me right now? I mean, in a way, that was
1:13:00
pretty perfect because they he was smart, Unlike the wedding where there's a lot
1:13:03
of people there. He got them to shut down his favorite amusement park for
1:13:08
the day and have like this amazing night. And then he's like and I'm
1:13:12
out. So I was like, Okay, that's why he did this.
1:13:15
He was there for that reason. He just wanted to have a private experience
1:13:20
at that amusement park. She's like, that's kind of ever been here before,
1:13:26
and he's like, fucking loveless. Please shit, damn elephants over there,
1:13:40
go on the school knows God, damn tea cups right now, Chill.
1:13:47
I did read that they keep the rings. The show provides the rings,
1:13:53
and that's why they look dinky. Well not according to everybody that saw
1:13:58
them. It's like, wow, you really big whoa hello, Hello,
1:14:02
Hello, my little lady, my little sparkler A nasty meet you. I
1:14:09
mean, look, neil uh, Neilane was not popping up in there,
1:14:13
you know. Neelane's like please you wish exactly speaking of other and Nick Lache
1:14:23
was barely popping up in there. And that was another thing. I was
1:14:26
like, whoa, okay, can we get a can we get a pulse
1:14:30
on this one? Crah Production medic, can we get a pulse on this
1:14:33
one? And Vanessa's like that is how he always is. And I treat
1:14:39
it with kindness and love and affirmation. Five couples have made it to the
1:14:44
rounds and have been engaged. We are now in the Dominican Republic. Nick
1:14:53
Nick Nick, Hey, we're having a great time here. They had to
1:15:02
put him in a coma. He's in a coma he hosts from his coma.
1:15:10
You could call that a coma host coma hosting. So college, all
1:15:19
right, So they break up and he's like, yeah, the reason why
1:15:27
is because you outed that me and my bestie ft and I'm worried about her
1:15:31
reputation. And he's probably exhausted from having to constantly tell her everything's great and
1:15:41
he loves her. It was disaster, and then he would have these weird
1:15:47
moments where he would need it to be affirmed. Also, like at the
1:15:53
party where she's like, that's the number one couple and he's like, we're
1:15:55
not for number one couple. I was like, what fucking world bringing that
1:16:00
up? Yeah, I mean in that amusement park and she was like,
1:16:05
well, this isn't the best place I've been to. He's like, what
1:16:14
what do you mean, Chelsea? Well, I mean like I've been to
1:16:17
like Disney World, Like that's amazing. This is just like you know fair
1:16:20
you know, in our local town. Could you could you say that?
1:16:29
I don't remember you saying that in the pots. Well it's not that,
1:16:34
I mean you think it's like the greatest place. Yeah, I do I
1:16:39
do you think it's the greatest place on her He should always be drinking white
1:16:50
milk. It's just a cup of white milk for that white man. I
1:17:01
had to go meet his parents at their fucking cracker barrel and like that barbecue
1:17:08
place. But I did look like the crack. It did feel like a
1:17:11
cracker barrel. No love a cracker barrel. But yeah, I mean these
1:17:15
parents are just like, hell, yeah, I just want I just want
1:17:19
them to be happy. You just go on. You just seem like a
1:17:24
real nast girl. When I was up there at the buffet with you,
1:17:27
and I noticed that you let me go before you. You said, here
1:17:30
you go, you take this plate before me. I knew. I knew
1:17:33
right then and there that when we were entering that part of the salad bar
1:17:38
and we both passed by that salad and went right over there to that is
1:17:44
pretty low for all these parents that have these apparently high standards, like yeah,
1:17:53
the bar is so low. Once they meet, they're like, we
1:17:56
accepted, please get rid of get rid of this person out of my life.
1:18:08
Yeah. So I don't know, all right, I think that we
1:18:12
covered it. I mean, I think that's about as much as we can
1:18:14
get out of milk out of this one. What do you think I think
1:18:16
this anything great? No? Okay, I mean I'll watch that reunion.
1:18:20
Yeah, but I don't know. I guess I'll watch the show again.
1:18:26
I think it was definitely interesting. I could have done with faster edits absolutely.
1:18:35
Yeah, so that's my note to the scientists. Great now, Emily,
1:18:44
would you ever do an experiment like this? No? No, I
1:18:50
think that maybe next week we could talk a little bit more about like if
1:18:54
it were a blind date in this type of format where you want to get
1:18:59
information out, the most important information and questions that like, what would our
1:19:01
questions be for that person? You know? Because I really feel like they
1:19:04
all drop the ball and what they needed to hear, except for maybe Amy
1:19:09
and Johnny. They seem to really get through stuff. I just want to
1:19:14
remind people that there are things called telephones and you can, like before you
1:19:19
date someone, call and talk to them for as long as you'd like without
1:19:25
seeing them. Now, social media does kind of, yeah, throw that
1:19:29
off because you can look at pictures. Yeah, and in fairness, if
1:19:34
somebody doesn't have a bunch of pictures or landing, if you can't find them
1:19:40
online, that is a red flag. So yeah, now I'm taking that
1:19:42
back. So this is definitely the only way to do this in the pods.
1:19:47
In the pods, it's the only way. It's the way. And
1:19:53
I don't know how much of background check they said that they did this huge
1:19:56
background check. I'm like, what, Clearly it's hard because like how could
1:20:03
you I don't know, maybe to make sure there wasn't like major criminal history.
1:20:09
Yeah, I think that's what it means. It doesn't I don't know,
1:20:12
like if they have girlfriends or boyfriends, and that would be very difficult
1:20:16
to figure out unless you're yeah, I don't know how they could figure that
1:20:19
out because they're taking them. They had character like assessment, like people call
1:20:26
this is my mom, or call my cousin, or you can call it
1:20:29
likes three references. Basically they would know, but they wouldn't wrap them out
1:20:33
because that person would have prepared them and say, I want to go on
1:20:36
this show please. When they call you, I put them as my references.
1:20:40
Don't say that I'm engaged. Oh okay, okay, han, no
1:20:46
problem, Mama loves you, totally say it. I would be a bad
1:20:51
reference. Well, this has been really fun night okay, okay, eh
1:21:03
freak Oh what a blast. Thank you guys so much for listening. Emily,
1:21:10
this was really fun. Thank you for doing this. This was a
1:21:12
real marathon. You really, you know, you put your big, big
1:21:15
girl pants on and you just you dove right in And I appreciate that anytime,
1:21:20
anytime for a love is blind. Oh wow. Okay. Also,
1:21:25
we hated the show. We hate this show. Drama, Darling, Drama, Darling
