  Speaker 1: This is the Ben and Ashley I Almost Famous podcast
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: It's Almost Famous podcast. We are here today to do
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: an episode we do every season, which is breakdown the
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: women coming on the next season of The Bachelor, which
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: is right around the corner. But before we do, we
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: have to we want to speak of the obvious. This
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: has been a confusing week. Words haven't quite been able
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: to be wrapped around the devastation in Los Angeles. It
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: felt like you woke up one morning, the news broke
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: and then it just continued for twenty four hours. In
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: all twenty four hours, I think so many of us
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: were just that don't live in LA. We're sitting watching
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: texting friends that do live there, and then obviously if
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: you're living in the Los Angeles area. From the friends
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: that I've talked to, it felt like hell on Earth
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: and it was chaotic, devastating, confused, sad, disorienting, and it
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: actually it seems like most people kind of still sit
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: in that place because there's still so much yet to
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: be known.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I wouldn't say it's over yet or that anybody
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: feels like in the clear. I think that LA is
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: a place. Well, for me, it was my home of
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: five and a half years, a place that I still
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: feel so alive in. Every time that I land there,
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: it is just has like an energy and an excitement
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: and for me, a sense of comfort and home. And
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: it's so crazy to see what's happening. It's really to
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: me just like it still feels unfathomable, like I don't
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: even know. It's just really hard to feel real. I
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: know that the people that are there right now, it
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: feels so real, so apocalyptic, and I'm so glad that
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: everybody is listening to these warnings and getting out of
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: their house. That is one thing that I think people
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: are doing it. You know that people are really listening
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: and gaining an out of their house and valuing that
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: what's the most important is their lives their safety.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we obviously have lost a few people in the
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: midst of this fires, but as actually said, the life
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: is so much more part. I listened to an interview
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: yesterday with a ninety one year old who lost his
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: house for Palisades, and obviously the you know adjectives we
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: used earlier seemed to be true there. But at the
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: same time, he's still standing and he will be able
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: to continue on and share this story, teach people in
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: the midst of this story, and also continue to live life.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Like you said, Ashley, the lives are so much more important.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: But not to you know, at all, downplay the importance
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: of somebody's home and their sentimentals and all their belongings
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: and just absolutely devastating. We have probably I don't know
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: if I shouldn't speak for you, but I feel like
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: we have probably more friends that live in La concentrated
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: than any other place in the country. So we've just
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: we've been thinking about them and checking in on everybody.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: It's crazy. One of the Bachelor producers, she texted me,
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: she was like, the kids are just so scared that
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: their toys are all going to be gone.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean that's a real thing, right, and
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: right now people are probably today going to start going
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: back towards their homes. The real rebuilding process is so difficult, right.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: I've heard a quote a few years ago, and it
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: kind of relates to personal and also the material things
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: in our world. But the destruction of something is quick
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: and somewhat easy, right, It happens in a blink of
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: an eye. The rebuilding is what gets to be the
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: most difficult. And right now, yes, we can sit here
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: and say, hey, the fires are out. You know, there's
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: always still the risk of more fires to come. But
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: now people are going to have to go back and
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: see and process and try to understand how do we
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: get going again. So with that, as we transition into
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: this episode, I do want to share a few resources. Obviously,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: the Red Cross is currently on the ground in Los
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Angeles trying to set up shelters and to give support
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: and relief wherever needed for essential items. Also, as I've
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: spoken about in the podcast before, I've had the privilege
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: of sitting on the board of Project Hope, which has
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: invested into disaster relief really since the hurricanes a few
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: years ago in the US. I got a message from
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: the CEO last night that Project Hope is on the
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: ground and Project Hope is going to invest not only
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: in the shelters, but also alongside other organizations in psychosocial support,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: help and care. So if you're out there in the
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Los Angeles area, you're listening and you're saying I feel alone,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: need this. If you have a need, don't hesitate to
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: reach out. Those are the two organizations that I would recommend,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Project Hope and the American Red Cross. I'm sure there's
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: many other aid organizations on the ground in your area.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Ask for help. Help is necessary right now, even if
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: you feel like you can do it on your own,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: even if you feel like, hey, I'm just gonna plug
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: through this thing, getting support and help right now is
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: necessary because then here's the other benefit. You can tell
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: others where they can get good support and help because
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: you're gonna have to do this together. But we feel
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: for you. We're with you. And however, the almost famous
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: podcast can Help, which is based out of la We
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: desire to be there in whatever ways are needed. Now,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: maybe a brief reprieve from all the difficulty that is
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: surrounding your life. We are going to break down grants
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: women that are coming on this season of The Bachelor today.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: This is an episode we do every season where we
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: give our.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Ben's favorite and Mildis favorite.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: We're going to say a bunch of things about people
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: that aren't true. We have to no clue who these
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: people are. This will be our unsolicited opinions based on
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: a sentence that we have about them, their names, and
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: their Bachelor pictures that can range from well done to
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: what in the world were you thinking and why did
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: the Bachelor do this to you? And that's what we
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: do every season. And so if you're listening to this
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: and you're thinking, hey, I am now going to judge
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: this person all season based on our opinion, you should
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: not do that. That would be a really bad decision
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: on your part. But you should go on to the
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: website that we're going to be using today and also
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: just give your unsolicited advice and opinions about the women
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: coming on this season. We're using the Today Shows website.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: It's Todayshow dot com or it's Today dot com and
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: you can probably just google Grant Ellis's Bachelor contestants from
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: the Today Show and you can follow along with this list.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: You may be like, why are you using an NBC website? Well,
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: guess what, guys, very weird this season. ABC on the
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Bachelor part of their website not listing the girls at all.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: There's a press release and they have like a group
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: they have a picture of all the pictures, and then
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: they have their mini bios. We don't have one of
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: those long paragraphs. We usually have like thick paragraphs on
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: each girl, which really helps us judge them further. Not
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: much this year, So we're really going off Looks alone.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: And yes, as Ben mentioned, we're going off to the
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: Today Show. But it's also in alphabetical order. And if
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: you want to see as much of the girls as possible,
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: go over to the Bachelor's instagram where they have a
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: couple carousels of their photos.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Ready, start, let's do it all right. First person we
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: have is Alex. Oh.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, so you know how I do this. I
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: give the info and then he gives the judgment because I,
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: as a girl, cannot give the judgment for girls. She
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: is a twenty seven years old A.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Guy does yeah, because there was so much better.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, it's really a lose lose here. So
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: she's a twenty seven year old pediatric speech therapist from
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: New Brunswick, Canada. She's a big animal lover after growing
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: up on a farm. She likes cooking, competition shows, and
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: she's fluent in French.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: Ben, here's my one thing. I noticed this recently, asked
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: my wife about it. Baggy jeans are in Huh.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, you don't like them? Guys hate them?
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't make sense to me. I mean, and
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: I don't say that from like oh, I love somebody
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: in tight jeans. No, I like tighte jans personally, like
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: I wear.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: Them, so does Jared. And I'm like Jared, I would
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: love ty jeans to never ever come back into style.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: So many millennials want their skinny jeans back. I'm like, no,
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: you guys, what we have right now. They're soft. They
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: let us breathe. They just let us breathe. We don't
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: have indents on our legs where we take our pants off.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: But yeah, what's up with you guys? Like in straight leg.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: I work out. I want people to see my quads.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Then we're some yoga pants man.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Don't put it past me anyways. Alex. What I'll say
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: about Alex is this, I think Alex is going to
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: be a catch. She's fluent in Spanish watching the cooking
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: show Competitions.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: No, she's fluent in French, not Spanish.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: It sounds a lot like my wife. She watches The
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Great British Bakeoff and is fluent in Italian. I love
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: the Alex group on a farm. And she's a pediatric
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: speech therapist. I only know a few speech therapists in
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: my life, but the ones I do know have an
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: amazing heart, patience, and care. So I'll say this about Alex.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: We're off the hot start. I would be shocked if
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Alex isn't around till at least a Final four.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: Okay, So Alex stands out to me the most in
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: the preview for the season because he's on the piano
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: singing a song to her and he and she goes like, wow,
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: I'm not really used to guys writing music for me. Yeah,
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: she's shown a lot and her why is her face
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: look so familiar to me?
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: I don't know. She's pretty. Yeah. Ali Joe is the
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: next all right.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Ali Joe's an easy an easy judge by the picture.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: But first off, thirty years old boxing trainer. She's from Jersey,
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: It's not surprising based on the picture. And she likes
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: the beach. She wishes she could go to Dubai one
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: day just to go shopping.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Ali Helen. Honestly, I don't know Ali Joe. She
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: scares me just from the picture, like not in like whoa,
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: you're a scary way. She's a beautiful human and she
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: looks great shape. Yeah, and she looks very kind. But
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: if I read her bio, she's a boxing trainer from
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: New Jersey Like sounds like a movie setup, right, Like
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: there's a character in a movie where I'm from Jersey.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: I'm a boxer, and I would be like, yeah, you
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: you intimidate me. Maybe it would be the better way
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: to say.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: That her top choice is what says Jersey to me.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: It also says it says like Terreesaj, she's got these beads,
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: you know from the way the Housewives.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't know who. Yeah, I don't know who
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: that is, but you probably you know are now? Yeah,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: I know her now and I get it. Ali Joe,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: I think will be the one. If I'm guessing, because
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: she has a lot of confidence, will probably be the first.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: He may I interrupt you for the third time? Person?
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Really?
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I get.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: And doesn't she remind you of what's her name? Amber Theeson?
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: Tiffany Ambertheeson? Who I know you love?
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, it really does. Wow, it's a good call. Huh.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: All right. Next one is Alicia oh Licia.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: She's a twenty nine year old interior designer from Tampa, Florida. However,
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: she won Miss California in twenty twenty. Continuing continuing with
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: the beauty queens in the cast.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: That's a massive win. Like, there's a lot of people
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: in California.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. That is a little bit harder than
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: No Shade to Our Love Hannah Brown or Hannah g But.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Alabama, I mean, I mean that's a big state.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of girls who want to be pageant
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: Queen's there too, a.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Lot of electric votes in California. Well, I don't know
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: of a beauty queen honestly that hasn't gone a long
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: ways on a season.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: That's so so true. We have Kaylin, Hannah and Hannah. Yeah,
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: those the ones that stand out to me. Marie miss Maryland. Yeah,
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: they go really far.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: So my guess is she's a final four contestant too.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: I mean that's not good. We're in three people in
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: and I say we have two final four contestants. This
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: Alicia uh is going to break Grant's heart. That's my guess.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: All right, let's move on to Bailey. Bailey is a
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: twenty seven year old social media manager from Atlanta, Georgia.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: She has a toy poodle and she's looking for a
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: guy who's funny, thoughtful, and family oriented who isn't Yeah,
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: thats gonna be like the three adjectives that nobody would
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: ever be like, Nah would rather not someone funny, thoughtful,
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: and family oriented.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's a little basic, right, And it's
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: also a little concerning to me, right if that's well,
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: if that's why like her statement. So you are obviously
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: married with two kids, and you like, if you were
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: looking and dating and you met Jared, You're like, I
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: just love Jared because he's funny, thoughtful, and family oriented.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: You'd be like, well, that dude sounds like so boring,
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Like he has nothing like you, there's nothing uniquely different
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: about him. I hope most people who are looking to
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: be a partner forever would have those three things about them,
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: or at least something associated with it. And so I'm
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: just a little concerned that Bailey, based on how little
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: they put into her bio, comes and goes very quickly.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: Plus she has a toy poodle and no judgment towards poodles.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: I know a couple of poodles that are decent. Anytime
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: I see toy poodle, I don't know why. It could
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: just be form my upbringing. I get a little concerned.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: Then this is gonna be Ben's like, you know, most
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: classic on the surface judgment of somebody thus far, Okay, Bailey,
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: We're sorry. You're totally fine, and everybody should go on
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: somebody thoughtful, funny and family oriented, not like on the wrong.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Path, just maybe like think about it a little harder.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Beverly is a thir year old insurance saleswoman from Howard Beach,
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: New York. Her parents been married for over thirty years,
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: and she wants to have a love story like. There's
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: also big fan of Titanic in the Princess Diaries. So Beverly,
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: let's chat.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: I think Beverly's a star. I do. I think Beverly
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: will be one we talk about for months to come
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: after the show. I don't know if she's necessarily for grant,
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: I don't know enough about that yet, but I think
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Beverly is going to fall into that America's sweetheart category.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Mostly mostly I say that because she mentions. I just
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: really have this thing when people on the going on
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: the show and they mention their parents' marriage, it just
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: it's not like a foreblown ConL foreblown is no foregone
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: conclusion that they know what it looks like to be
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: in relationship. But I know this, they know what they
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: want in a relationship, and I think that's a huge
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: start when you come on the show.
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm. I agree. Carolina is next, and she has
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: princess vibes written all over her love her dress. She's
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: a twenty eight year old public relations producer from Puerto Rico.
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: She speaks English, Spanish, French, and oh my god, Carolina,
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: let's really talk her childhood crushes Jojonas. Who is your
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: adult crush, Joe Jonas?
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Joe Jonas? Is it still Joe Jonas for you?
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Oh goodness. I love that She wants to get roasted.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: So she says the end that her dream is that
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: Nicki Glazer would roast her.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: At the Golden Globes, which interesting because Nicki Glazer just
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: did her first Golden Globes, so, like, did she foresee
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: the future when she filled this out.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: It was announced a while back that nick is going
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: to be the ghost. What I appreciate about that is
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: I think she's going to be very strong. Now, strong
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: is an amazing quality. She's from Puerto Rico. She's got
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: that going. She's staring deeply into the camera in this picture. Yeah,
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Like it looks like she's looking through your soul. Yeah,
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: And if she's okay getting roasted. I have a feeling
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: that she has lead characteristics, like I maybe don't love
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: the whole, like being around everybody all the time and
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: sharing this dude with everybody. But you give me the
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: lead and I will make I will make magic happen.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: So my first thought with her is she has leadership
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: qualities just from seeing the picture, seeing her bio and
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: knowing that she's okay. If Nicki Glazer would just roast
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: her on stage.
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: I would love if she's like eliminated night one and
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: we're totally wrong on that. Yeah, No, not really, I
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: actually want her to be around okay. Kloe is next.
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: She's a model twenty seven from New York, New York.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: She grew up in the Midwest but decided to move
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: to New York to become a model. She loves You've
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Got Mail and when Harry met Sally and she likes
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: to watch them. We'll sitting on a dirty martini. I
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: also could get along with Chloe.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Chloe seems great because I love a good dirty martini. Chloe,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Chloe's gonna have a hard time on the show. Why
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: because it's like a two shot minimum and nobody wants
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: it like a.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: Two shot per hour, Ben, So.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: You could drink a martini an hour, I guess, or.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: Like, yeah, I'm pretty sure you're done, so.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that'd be good. Yeah, I guess that makes.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Sense too after probably honestly an hour, but definitely two.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she'll be fine. She's got a Midwest like the
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: midwesterners do great on the show. We don't have a
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: lot of them anymore. We just have a select few
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: every season. But if you have a Midwest background and
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: you come onto The Bachelor, I just feel like there's
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: a different mentality you take coming into it. But I
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: could Chloe not relating with a lot of the women
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: because of her Midwest background, which could be a little isolating. Well,
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: if the watch is that as that continues, but that's
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: my first thought is it could be a little isolating
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: because there could be some drama going on and Chloe's like,
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: I don't get it, I don't understand. I'm just gonna
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: sit my martini, my shot and a half martini. I'm
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: gonna sip a shot, a cold shot. That's pretty much.
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: She's gonna take a shot. She doesn't even want like
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: any water getting in her way or whatever. The not water.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Christina is next.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: I just said that there was a martini had water
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: in it. Guys. I you know what, I'm not very
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: much of a bartender, okay. Christina twenty six year old
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: marketing director from Fargo, North Dakota. She's a daredevil. She
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: wants to jump out of an airplane. She'll do a
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: bungee jump date, and when she's in the mood for
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: something less intense, she would like to go on the
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: lake or plan a wine night with friends.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: So far as all these women, like even the one
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: I was most critical of Bailey just because she's had,
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: you know, three characteristics about a future partner that were
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: not wrong, they just were not like, very insightful. It
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: feels like we got a good group. Ashley.
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: Well, they're also giving us smaller bios, so you know,
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: they're really just giving us the good stuff in one sentence.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I understand that. I do understand that. I just I
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: think usually we can tell from the pictures and the
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: bios even if we just get a sentence, even if
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: we didn't have a bio, we'd be like, WHOA, what's
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: happening here? So far? We're you know, seven people in
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, ah, this is a good group. This,
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: this is gonna be fun to watch.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: He is a good group.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: I like her. She's a girl's girl. She's gonna have
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: a lot of friends in the house. She's going to
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: be I see her like a Hannah g type right
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: where she is not main care character, but we know
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: of her. She's around a long time and she comes
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: off of the show and just people like her. There's
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: not like a there's not an issue. Also, I think
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: she thrives on group dates, which will be to her
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: detriment at some point because she's going to give it
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: her all. She's not going to be scared of any
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: group dates. I also don't want to mention that this
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: is a good survival tactic to say that you love
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: the bungee jump and jump out of planes and snakes
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: and spiders, because then the show will never do it.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: To you exactly. She looks like Kirsen Duns. This is
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: my This is my forte is celebrity comparisons for the girls.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: Kirsten Duns. That's a good one.
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: Dina She is a thirty one year old attorney from Chicago.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: She is one of eleven siblings, and she describes herself
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: as mysterious. You know, she doesn't look mysterious to me.
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: She looks like I'm going I'm going to judge her.
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: She looks like a stir and you know it.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she does like some there could be some drama
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: behind the scenes here, and she's obviously smart. She's an attorney,
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: so she can she'll know how to manipulate, use her word,
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: use her words. Well, I don't love Ashley quite honestly.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: The combination of attorney and mysterious. I feel like that's
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: a bad combination. I don't know how that.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: Kelly Flann again like, but hell, Kelly Flann again went well.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: It did go well for Kelly.
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: Fan She was absolutely mysterious as an attorney.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, still is you though, I do want to make
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: this correlation. You have, you know, a sibling. I have none,
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: eleven siblings. Don't you think you would find yourself mysterious
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: if you had eleven siblings, just because you have to
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: kind of operate within your own, you know, head all
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: the time, because there's just no way that anybody's really
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: ever going to get to know you that well.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: Your parents are never going to get to know you
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: that well. Yeah, well we'd have to ask Nick.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: That's a good point. Yeah, Nick has done that, and Nick,
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: I would say, and Nick is mysterious, very mysterious.
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: Okay, next step, we have Ella. She's a twenty five
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: year old luxury travel host. Luxury travel host. Do you
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: think she just owns an Airbnb?
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, that would be an amazing way to say.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: I would actually have so much respect for her if
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: she owns it like an Airbnb and calls herself a
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: luxury travel host, it would be awesome. And honestly, I
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: know I've I've mentioned this before, h And I think
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Grant has probably mean he's came out with some of
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: his philosophies and theories, and you know, they make sense.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: But Grant is a day trader, so they've both probably
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: inflated what they've done day to day. And I respect it.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: Why not, You're you're on national television. You know, let's go.
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: Hm. Well, she also is saying that she loves to
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: have family and friends over to eat and watch basketball.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: Do you think that she said this on purpose because
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: Grant is a former European basketball player.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I think she's really smart. I think she knows
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: exactly what she's doing, which scares me for her on
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: this show, because even if you think you know how
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: to conquer the show, the show will come back and
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: conquer you. It's just like a thing that always happens.
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: They'll watch basketball on a day and she won't know
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: what she's talking about.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: And it will just crush her. Like They'll be like, well,
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: you know, she'll be like, I love basketball. They go
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: and watch it and she's like, that's a good touchdown.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: And if you like.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: Basketball is like the simplest sports that you can't really
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: mess it up. No, Okay. Janay is a twenty eight
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: year old account coordinator from Colorado Springs, Think Colorado. They
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: have both played professional basketball over seas, so she does
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: basketball like he knows basketball. This is a different girl.
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: Now she is going to be like, you know, what's
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: her name? Ella is gonna be like, hey, I love basketball,
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: And then Jane's gonna be like, hey, guess what I
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: played like alongside him overseas?
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was in the same area. We can relate
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: on that. I think she's gonna be around a while.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: They have a lot toe late on. They obviously have
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: this background. They can have fun together. I mean, I
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: don't know how often couples go and play pick up
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: with each other, but I do know couples to shoot
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: baskets together, which I imagine will be something about the entry
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: or intro package will be the two of them shooting
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: baskets on the mansion driveway, which has been done over
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: and over and over and over again.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: Which is fine so many times. But you know, I
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: feel it. It's like a fun thing to do with
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: somebody your dating, or you know it's somebody you're married too.
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: Because Jared and I go hard. If we're at an
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: arcade and there's the dual basketball, we get so competitive.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah good, it's so much fun.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: It's also a great workout because you know, I must
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: continue to try to beat him, and I have beat
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: him a couple times, and wow, it's actually not an oak.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: It's really not good for us for me have a winner.
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: I'm a good winner. What do you mean you think
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: that I'm like shove it in his face. Yes, no,
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: he doesn't take like being athletically put down well because
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: like athletics is his thing.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's an athlete. Juliana is the next contestant that
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: we have. Juliana is a client service associate yep.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: She's twenty eight from Newton, Massachusetts. She was raised in
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: a big Italian family. She's looking for a relationship like
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: her parents, who are high school sweethearts. She likes listening
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: to Frank Sinatra and dreams of opening a dog friendly bar.
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: That's a cute idea.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a cute idea from Newton, Massachusetts, Italian family.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: That's a great quality to have. It's loving fears. I
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: think she's gonna do very well in the house because
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: chaos is something she's very comfortable with if you grew
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: up in a big Italian family. She does have a
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: tattoo on her hand that you can see. I wonder
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: what it says. I can't really spell it out because
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: it's one of those thin, small tattoos, but obviously if
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: you put on the top of your hand it's something
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: important to you.
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: It looks like it says only love. But I also
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: can't read it well.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, what a better phrase than for the Bachelor.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: Maybe she got it for the show. So one date,
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Grant looks down. He's like, what is your tattoo saying?
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: She says only love? And he's like, wow, you want
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: love too? I want love? Let's get married.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: Kelsey is a twenty six year old interior designer in Brooklyn,
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: New York. Hey Ben, no shade to Kelsey or anyone
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: saying interior designer. But do you think it's like one
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: of those occupations they give them if they don't really
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: have an occupation, which, like, seriously, it's okay. I was
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: like that person, I said, freelance journalists, because I was
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: really a you know, a broadcast journalist, recent graduate who
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: didn't really have a job, just an internship when I
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: signed up. So you know, and this, this seems to
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: be one that's popular these days. Interior designer, aka I
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: make my apartment look cute.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: Which is such a good quality to have, right, I mean, goodness,
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: a nice. I wish they would give it a little
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: more detail like some of these. Again I mentioned it
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: with the account executive. What the heck is an account executive? Yeah,
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: but I want to know, like, are you working in
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: finance or are you an account because being an account
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: executive or an in tier designer, I don't know if
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: you're doing residential commercial. I want to know, like if
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: you're doing restaurants, because there's a whole vast array of
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: things you could do, which maybe the hope is during
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: the season grant Will asked some those questions. Okay, you're
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: an in tier designer, what exactly do you interior design?
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: Because yes, this is a legitimate and amazing job if
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: you're actually doing it, but we don't know right now
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: just from I mean, I wish now if I went
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: back in time, I don't know what my job would
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: have been, but it would have been something incredibly sophisticated
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: and overarching and not a lie.
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: Yours was a little bit of a exaggeration, right because
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: it said software salesman, and really you were writing pamphlets. Yeah,
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: well a software company.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, But yeah, the show because the show spoke it
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: into existence for me, because as soon as I got
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: the show, they moved me into sales.
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: Well, of course you give you sales and those charming
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: person ever.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: But yeah, when I was on the show, I was
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: a user manual writer. So that would have been a
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: wild job.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: Like software user manual writer.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: I would die.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: Can you imagine on those dates being like as wonderful
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: as he was and like such a leading man character
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: and then like that as your lower third.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: Amazing would that have been to like have somebody else
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: break down art my like this season I was on
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: the cast and they're like, he's a user manual writer.
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: This dude sucks.
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I love it all right, Bollso Kelsey,
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: she likes a vacationing in Martha's vineyards. So whatever she's decorating,
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: she's doing well.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: At Yeah, she's fine. We have Kylie retail manager in Wilmington,
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: North Carolina.
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: Okay, so she is twenty six and she has a
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: golden doodle. How do you feel about that?
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: It's a safe option if you you know, if you
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: want a dog that you know is going to be
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: high energy but decently well behaved and not shed and
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: not shed, get a golden doodle. I get it. I
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Mean it's a very but it's like a very easy
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: option today.
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Her favorite movie is Pearl Harbor. So let's talk.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: Let's have like a girl's movie night with these with
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: these women, because oh my goodness, gracious, we have a
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: lot of the same movies in our top echelon.
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: You would have loved to be on this season.
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: Something that stands out to me about Kylie she lived
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: in Uganda for four months. I want to know one
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: why and to what she learned from that experience anybody.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: She's twenty six years old, so she did this at
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: a relatively young age. I want to know more about that,
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: because I think it's gonna make her make a lot
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: more sense to all of us, if you know, for
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: whatever reason, she moved over there. So we respect anybody
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: that lives overseas or away from the US for a
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: period of time in their life. Uganda is an interesting choice.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: I love Uganda, but you do You just don't hear
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: a lot of people saying, yes, I'm moving to Uganda, Litz.
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: I'm gott your help on this one. Lydia, Lydia, Lydia.
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: She is a thirty one year old venture capitalist from

  Speaker 3: Salt Lake City.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: Now now we're talking. Now we're talking about a job title.
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: Okay, so venture capitalist is definitely different than what he
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: does in day trading, right Ben?
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: Oh? Yes? Like okay, not even the same. I mean,
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, I guess the same, like umbrella, but not
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: even closely.
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: Do you think you think they'll bond over this stuff? Finances?
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know Grant's ability to speak money. Yeah, yeah,
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: we didn't hear a lot about it on last season.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: But I'm guessing he has enough of the foundational like
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: wording and understanding to be able to relate with her
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: a little bit. Here'd be my concern he gets a
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: little over his skis because being a venture capitalist, I
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: don't know she has her series seven like, I don't
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: know if she actually is educated and qualified for this
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: position or what role she has within her VC. However,
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: I would imagine that her understanding of capital mark It's
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: might be a little more than his, and so he
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: should just probably try to learn a little bit first.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: But I'm guessing he has the foundational ideas to be
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: able to relate with her.
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: Ben the way that they have this photo of her,
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: she's basically at a desk and she's letting her arm
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: down and then she has her one arm up on
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: her chin. It looks more like a headshot for a
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: financial advisor website.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: The producers are like, hey, you're smart. Let me take
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: a picture that makes you look smart. I think she's
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: I actually like, right as of right now, I think
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: she's the winner. Really yeah, I mean I think we're
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: gonna they're gonna have enough to relate with. She says
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: the same age close in age fanom basketball, like obviously athletic,
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: because she doesn't just mention that she likes watching basketball
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: and football. She also says water polo, So like you're
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: not lying about liking watching or like participating in water polo.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: That would be a random draw. And so I have
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: a feeling that she if I had to vote right now,
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: she'd be my winner, Like she's the one at the end,
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: has the most to relate with him on they like
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: each other, and I mean, goodness, what a gorgeous couple
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: they would be.
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: Okay, so Ben that Ben picks Lydia as his top choice.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: I will still be thinking about this as we continue,
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: speaking of going from a confidence post to a very
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: uncomfortable looking post. Natalie, I mean lean in her stool,
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: like why would they do this, trying to hold her
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: upper body up. It's she's a twelve. She's a twenty
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: five year old pH d student from Louisville, Kentucky. Her
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: parents married over thirty years. Wants a relationship like theirs.
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: She enjoys watching rom coms and cheering on her football team,
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: the Seattle Seahawks.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, I can't even like accurately judge Natalie because
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: I can't get past the fact that they put her
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: in this position for this photo. Again, if we look
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: up up at any of these other photos, we're like,
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: all right, this makes sense. Is a good power position.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: They're standing up, they're cropping it. Well, they have her
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: at a desk. Then they're like, hey, Natalie, sit there
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: and take a picture where your hands are doing something
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: they've never done before. As you've sat on the desk
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: and it looks like you're sliding out of your chair
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: and that you're trying to like smile and hold your
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: whole core together just to keep.
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: Your sl scord. This is an ab workout. It's basically, guys,
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: for those of you who it looking, it looks as
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: if she should be sitting with like a large armchair,
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: nice tall back, and she's on a stool. Poor girl.
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: We'll learn more about her.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: I think she's probably a sweet girl who's probably like
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: she's I think she's a little awkward.
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: It's not winning. Well, they wouldn't choose this picture for
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: a while now.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: But I think she's gonna be like that funny, like
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: she'll make us laugh because she's consistently saying interesting things
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: that make us all giggle. But we're all thinking she's.
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: A good narrator. Yeah, they keep her around for being Yah,
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: that's a good way to put it, Okay. Nissi is
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: a thirty two year old pediatrician.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: Wow, why is this cast so smart?
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: Some good ones in here. Blithewood, South Carolina. She splits
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: her time between four different hospitals, and when she isn't working,
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: she likes to try different coffees.
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, generous coffee is your favorite. I heard.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: I like that. That's a cool little hobby trying new coffees.
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: Why not I like it? I mean I'm in coffeelement
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: right there.
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Paricia, I hope I'm saying your name right? She
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: is a Okay, how is it?
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know, but you're just not I know you're
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: not right.
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: It's Paris. Uh, that's how it's spelled, guys. Paris a
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: twenty nine years old a pediatric behavioral analyst from Birmingham, Michigan.
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: A pediatric analyst. I, well, you know, i'm a little
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: nasally today.
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: I just want to know what an analyst is that.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: It sounds like an analyst. She's an interesting job.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: Pediatric behavior though. I mean, that's that's a hard job.
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: That's something I wonder if she works at like elementary
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: schools or she works at you know, more of like
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: a hospital setting. Anyway, she has a rock collection, and well,
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: like many of us, can spend hours growing TikTok.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, not for long. Isn't it like, isn't TikTok going
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: away or something?
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like we got like a week left of TikTok.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's gonna go. I think we're gonna
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: I think tiktoks could go to survive. Okay, Well, the
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: I don't know much about this situation.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: But have you been watching the show on Apple called Shrinking?
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: What is it about?
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: No?
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: I haven't.
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: Okay, so Shrinking is Jess and I have been watching it.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: One of the ladies, and one of my favorite characters,
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: has a rock collection and she does it mostly for
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: her mental sanity. But she gets really like sad and
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: downtrodden as she looks at her rock collection. I don't
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: know why necessarily, other than it's just a very like
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: therapeutic experience. So when I see that she has a
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: rock collection, I say, it makes sense because this girl
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: has an incredible amount of empathy and she spends her
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: whole day helping make people better. And so I'm guessing
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: that she loves some time in silence and just a
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: distraction and a rock collection helps you ground you, Yeah,
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: to ground you.
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: It's grounding. Okay, Well we have to get We have
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: to hurry up because Benley has a few more minutes
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: here and we have a few more girls. Radhika is
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: a twenty eight year old attorney from New York City.
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: She's from a close knit Indian family and she wants
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: to share her family traditions with her future partner.
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I like everything about this. I think she's going
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: to be a really fun character this season. I can
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: see her being full of joy. I can see her
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: being kind of the mom in the house because she
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: likes to cook with her mom and all anytime there's
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: somebody that provides food within the mansion, everybody loves, everybody appreciates.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: It's kind of a if you if you want to
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: tip on how to make friends, provide them food. And
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: if she knows how to cook and she's willing to
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: do it and she enjoys doing it, I think she's
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: going to be one of those characters this season that
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: comes on the podcast that we enjoy talking to that's
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: interesting and makes us laugh. I see her though top eight.
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: Okay, I don't see her going super far either, maybe
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: a little bit before then, But I find her just
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: And I'm not like really adding a lot of opinion
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: to this, but I do feel like through her eyes
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: I can vibe this, So I need to say. She
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: hasn't found herself in dramatic situations in her past. Something
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: about this, but something about this show is going to
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: bring out her desire to def others and sometimes that
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: might get her in trouble. This is what I can
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: tell by her face. Okay, Rebecca is Wow. Rebecca is
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: a superstar, Beyonce vibes, Beyonce energy. She's a thirty one
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: year old I see you nurse from Dallas, Texas. She
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: wants somebody who will travel the world with her and
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: enjoys animals and playing scrabble. Rebecca, you are more than
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: your bio. You have far more power than that.
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: All right. This picture is one that like stands out
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: to you, right, yeah, yeah, it's It's a picture that
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: can go one of two ways, Ashley for me, either,
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: she is a fierce and a force to be reckoned with.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: On this season and she's there to the final four
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: or drama you know, surrounds it because it kind of
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: gives me the like, I'm staring into your soul vibe again,
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: and that always is one that for me, that picture
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: can go one of two ways, like I'm confident that
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: you can see into my soul and either you're going
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: to destroy Grant's soul or you're going to heal it
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: and mend it and help him find love. I don't
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: know yet, but I think she's going to be a
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: character we talk about all season. So watch out for Rebecca.
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: She's going to be one that we know m.
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: Rose's next. And she looks innocent, but she won't shut up.
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: I know these things about her. This is just now
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: I'm putting in my two cents based on appearance. She's
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: a twenty seven year old registered nurse from Chicago. She
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: is a self described terrible dancer, big fan of Julie
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: Andrews and Formula one Racing.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: Love it, love it. She knows what she likes two
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: wildly opposite things, Formula one Racing and Julian Come on,
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: let's go.
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: I like that bio. It's but it's interesting.
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: Here's a comparison. This is like this I think will
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: make Rebecca make more sense. Rose does not have the
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: ability to steer into my soul, like she doesn't like
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: this picture is very innocent. It's very like, hey, I'm
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: just happy to be here kind of vibes, where Rebecca's like, no,
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: I belong here.
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah. But Rose like she's a little bit of a nuisance.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: Can you see that? Can you see her like kind
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: of being like, oh, I know, I look like sweet,
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: but like like a good commentator. Commentator, No, not a commentator.
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: She's getting into things. She's like the sidekick character to
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: the villain.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: Ooh, she's robbing.
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: What's wrong with me? Why is this pouring out?
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: I have no idea, it's I love it. I'm great.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: I'm just gonna sit back. Sarah FINA's next Ashley another
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: baggy jean look.
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: She looks great in these bagga jeans. Love this look.
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: I don't even just it's like it's just a thing
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: that happened so fast. We went through that like.
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: Yoga pant like years beyond. This is like been happening
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: for two years.
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: Well that's about my timeline on fashion. It's two years behind.
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: So I just love a crop top with baggy pants.
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: That way it shows off my stomach, which is a
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: better part of my body than my legs, except for
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: maybe not after two children, but anyways. Twenty nine year
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: old associate media director from New York City. She loves
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: watching Gray's Anatomy. She loves dancing, spontaneity, and books out
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: books trips. Okay, she likes some books. She likes to
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: book trips on a whim. I thought she liked book trips, Yeah,
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: like book clubs.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's cool too. Yeah, you know what,
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: you book trips on a whim when you're single or
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: you don't have kids, I'm assuming. And so when I
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: read this, I'm like, yeah, but that's going to have
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: to change. You and your partner are probably gonna have
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: jobs and responsibilities the increase, and obviously then you enter
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: your kids in this scenario, Like, how exciting would it
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: be for you actually to for Jared to and you
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: to wake up tomorrow morning and he's like, you know what,
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: let's book a trip for tomorrow. Like you would love that,
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: but it's just not an option anymore. And so I
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: say all this to say, when you're ready for a committed,
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: long term relationship. I think those things if they are
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: your favorite things to do right now, my hope is
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: that you can find something different or a due way
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: to compromise that as you do enter into relationship.
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: Mmm. Next up is Savannah. She's a twenty seven year
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: old wedding planner from Charlotte'sville, Virginia. She is ready to
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: these girls. I tell you, she's ready to turn the
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: plot of the wedding planner into reality. I want to, like,
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: I mean to have a hang with them. I love her.
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: She would feel so bad on this season Ashley.
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: Why because I just be can't make friends.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: You'd make so many friends, and all you'd want to
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: do is talk to him movies And every time the
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: guy would come in, you would be like chatting about
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: some random movie or they talk about the day. When
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: he goes, hey, how is your Daniel? Like it was great,
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: we talked about the wedding planner. He's like, I could
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: care less, Like honestly, like that sounds awful.
• 45:13
  Speaker 3: She's so cute, But I don't think she's gonna go
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: that far.
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: Uh. The reason I think that is because she's talkative
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: is in her is in her bio. She's loyal, caring,
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: and talkative. Right, loyal, awesome, caring, amazing. If talkative is
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: in your bio, if that is one of the top
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: three qualities that you give yourself, it's probably not gonna
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: work on this show, mostly because you'll have very few
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: instances where you can actually talk to the lead and
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: you're gonna get really frustrated with that, which means you're
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: gonna be the one that's like, I need more time,
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: I need to interrupt, I need to talk to him more.
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: And unless you find that outlet in the women around you,
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: which is very rare and not always healthy, you're gonna
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: get frustrated. And I see Savannah getting very frustrated being
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: on the show.
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: What an analyst then?
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: What an analyst at?
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: Vicky very very pretty like her, She's she also feels
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: very comfortable on camera. Twenty eight year old nightclub server
• 46:19
  Speaker 3: from Vegas. She used to be an NFL cheerleader. She
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: still likes football, dreams of living on a vineyard in Italy.
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: Wow, that's nice. Who doesn't Again, that would be great,
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: right if that would work out. We've had other nightclub
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: servers from Vegas on the show before The Twins. The
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: Twins and they did great, big personalities, really fun to
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: be around, really nice to be around, obviously made a
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: name for themselves, and then found themselves married with kids.
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: Post show, Vicky, I'm guessing that your your lot too,
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: Like you're gonna do great. You're gonna be awesome here.
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: You're gonna be a character that we laugh watch and
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: enjoy and brings joy and hospitality those around you. However,
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know if Grant and the season will work out,
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: but I have a feeling that will come very soon after.
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: Whenever I see nightclub Server, I'm like stressed because they
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: have to work so late, Like why am I stressed
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: for her? Like her working hours like don't start till
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: ten pm.
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I went and visited the Twins once in Vegas,
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: and I remember they took us to the club that
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: they worked, and it like they're like, yeah, we'll get
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: there around like ten thirty or something to get like
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: dressed and started. And I was like that's insane, Like
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: I was planning on being back in my hotel room
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: by eleven, So this isn't working out.
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: Zoe is our last contestant. She's a twenty seven year
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: old tech engineer and model she is. She looks very
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: she's very pretty. I see her modeling. She's from New
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: York City, a lot of New York City girls this
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: time around. She was the first female wrestler to compete
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: on her high school team before attending Duke, where she
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: got her degree in mechanical engineering.
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: Son of a Biscuit. Some people have a don't they do?
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: Like you just look at her and you're like, oh yeah,
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: like you've got everything, Like what what what are your
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: insecurity Zoe? Like what what keeps you up at night
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: about yourself? Because right now, you're pretty, you're smart, you're athletic.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: You'd know how to boat. I mean it doesn't I
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: guess say sailing, which would be really cool. I like
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: that she added eat tacos in there, like that's the
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: one thing, and I've all, yeah, like I can relate
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: with that, Like, oh yeah, I like to eat tacos too.
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: That sounds cool. Everything else I'm like, they just yeah,
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: she's another top four for me. So I think that
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: rounds out my top four. I don't remember everybody I said,
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: but I know I've now used my four top fours
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: when I've mentioned them throughout the show.
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: Okay, So now it's my turn. I do add Zoe
• 49:04
  Speaker 3: into my top four as well. I think that Alex,
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: our number one girl, is the winner. And I think
• 49:10
  Speaker 3: I'm just being swayed by her appearances in the preview,
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: but Alex Zoe, uhh, do I add Alisha?
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: I had Alicia in mine.
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: Alicia is tempting scrolling, scrolling, scrolling, Carolina. I would like
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: to add her. Let's add Carolina and then Janey the
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: basketball player.
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: I do think Rebecca will be I don't know if
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: there's a villain from this season, but I think Rebecca
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: is going to be the one in my vote that
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: is going to I just have to say that she
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: causes the the other women to get jealous. I think
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: she's first and pression rows okay, target on back and ultimately,
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: as we've seen in past seasons, it doesn't get handled well.
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: And she she stares at somebody like she's doing in
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: this photo, and it makes it frightens them and for
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: whatever reason, like she's bullying me and she's like I
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: didn't say a word, and they're like, yeah, but you
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: looked at me that way. And that's just how powerful
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: that gaze is.
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: Producer Hannah, can you write these down our predictions so
• 50:28
  Speaker 3: that we can follow along during the season and you
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: can remind us throughout being like you were wrong on that,
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: wrong on that. So my top four is Zoe Alex.
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: I'll just put Carolina in it. Carolina, Carolina, Carolina. It's
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: definitely Carolina. Why am I calling her Carolina? She's not
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: a state.
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: Spelled like him, but she's from.
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: Let's add in. Okay, this is so weird because we
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: didn't really talk about her a lot, but like there's
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: something about her that I'm crossing her picture and I'm like,
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: she needs to be worth noting. Nissi the Pediatrician m like, okay,
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: good pick, good pick. So all right, those are my
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: four and then my trouble maker is my troublemakers actually Rose.
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I figured you'd say that. That's really okay, Yeah,
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: that's fair. You have that vibe from the beginning this
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: is gonna be a great season. We don't always say
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: that after we kind of break down the cast. We've
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: said it in the past where we thought, hey, what
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: is who is this cast? Like do they not have
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: anything else to offer? I think we said about Jen's cast,
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: We're like, this doesn't feel like it's going to work,
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: and well it didn't.
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: But hey, she's Shasha now, and look, if it weren't
• 51:47
  Speaker 3: for her being the Bachelor atte, she wouldn't be with Sasha.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: It works somehow, some ways, it doesn't work on this season.
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: I think this cast is gonna be fun to watch. Confident,
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: they're beautiful, we're gonna get emotion, and Grant I think
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: will be a great lead. I'm excited to watch this season.
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know anything about Grant yet, though, and that's
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: my problem still. I don't think he's going to be
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: a bad lead. I don't think he was a bad choice.
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: I think it is a weird thing they're doing when
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: it comes to how they're introducing us to these bachelors.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: Have they not learned a lesson yet? Where if we
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: don't know the bachelor, it's really hard for us to
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: get into the season. And so my hope is instead
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: of just saying, oh, he's so good looking, he's so attractive,
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: because of course he is, we actually get to know
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: the guy a little bit before this season starts, and
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: so I'm still waiting for that because I don't feel
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: like I do yet.
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: You think that you're going to get to know him
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: before the.
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: Season starts, well, like maybe first episode. I'm saying, like,
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: before we actually get into the dating thing.
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: You remember Hallie used to do like bonus episodes like that,
• 52:48
  Speaker 3: like Meet the Bachelor or like Meet the Cast, and
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: there would be like a little like half an hour
• 52:52
  Speaker 3: or something. Am I making this up? I think they
• 52:54
  Speaker 3: used to do this, like back in the day when
• 52:56
  Speaker 3: the show used to be like super duper popular.
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: Do you disagree with me that? Like, I have nothing
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: against Grant.
• 53:01
  Speaker 3: Put on Hulu. Guys, you don't have to put it
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: on the real show, just like throw up like a
• 53:04
  Speaker 3: thirty minute thing about like Grant's life. I know you
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: have that footage from when you Need Packages.
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: Yes, I just don't know him yet, and so it's
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: hard for me to get into this right now. With Joey,
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: we knew I mean that was one of the reasons
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: that he had the most successful season in you know,
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: many years, was because we knew him going into it.
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: We saw his heartbreak, we saw his journey, we saw
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: who he was, we saw how excited he was to
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: find somebody, and so we went into the season and
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: be like, yeah, that's Joey. We saw his transformation, like
• 53:33
  Speaker 2: you said, his glow up into the Bachelor with Grant,
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: we don't know anything yet, and I think I'm excited
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: to watch the season because I think the cast is
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: going to be great. But I feel like we should
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: have learned our lesson as fans, viewers and as a
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: show that the cast can carry a season just fine
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: when it comes to entertainment, but the cast can't make
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: people view it like watch it right?
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: So so true?
• 54:01
  Speaker 2: Are we going to have a Zach need to want
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: him to?
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know.
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: We had a was Zach. I know Zach. He's a
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: nice guy, but we don't We didn't know him.
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this is Grant is not just Zac. As Zach
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: got further. Grant is like Clayton. He was like seventh eighth.
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and it didn't work because we never got to
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: know Clayton. Really. They just kind of threw us into
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: a season and was like watch this guy date and
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: we're like, yeah, that's cool. We just don't know this guy,
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: like is he except.
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: He did like mess up so bad that it was entertaining.
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: You're not wrong anyways, this has been the almost famous podcast.

• 54:42
  Speaker 2: We're excited to start watching it. It's been a great
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: offseason so far. Again, we wanted to pause the end
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: to talk about the fires UH within the Los Angeles area.

  Speaker 2: to do it from a public perspective. When it comes
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: to great organizations already on the ground. I know of
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: two reputable, impactful, effective and efficient organizations, Project Hope and
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: the American Red Cross. You can just google their names.
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: They're both on the ground already helping provide shelter care,
• 55:28
  Speaker 2: essential items, and mental health support to those affected by
• 55:33
