- 0:39Speaker 2: First question is for Ashley, what are your thoughts when
- 0:45Speaker 2: Jonathan showed up in the crowd at after the final rows, Well.
- 0:50Speaker 3: He was asked to be there, So it was like
- 0:54Speaker 3: the producers asked them to be there. It wasn't like
- 0:56Speaker 3: he just decided to show up. They wanted some tension
- 1:00Speaker 3: on him. I'm sure that's why they showed him a lot.
- 1:04Speaker 3: It wasn't as if he was there because like there
- 1:07Speaker 3: was something going on with him and Jen. I think
- 1:10Speaker 3: that if you're gonna ask me from my personal opinion
- 1:14Speaker 3: on what's going on with Jonathan and Jen, I think
- 1:18Speaker 3: that much like with Hannah when she had that chat
- 1:24Speaker 3: with Tyler about maybe being open to going on a
- 1:26Speaker 3: date there after the final Rows, when she had you know,
- 1:30Speaker 3: that crappy ending, it was a nice little oh well,
- 1:35Speaker 3: let's see where this goes, Like if you actually picked
- 1:38Speaker 3: the quote better guy, which you know they're the better guys.
- 1:44Speaker 3: You you know, how we get like this whole other
- 1:47Speaker 3: storyline to play out on social media, in the in
- 1:50Speaker 3: the press, Like it's fun for us as an audience
- 1:53Speaker 3: to see them possibly go with somebody that they didn't
- 1:56Speaker 3: choose on the show, and then it's fun for them
- 1:59Speaker 3: to play it up for the audience. And it's always fun,
- 2:02Speaker 3: you know, to flirt with like a cute person, a
- 2:06Speaker 3: cute person. Right, So, Jonathan and Jen are out there
- 2:09Speaker 3: right now and they're going to a whole bunch of
- 2:11Speaker 3: events together. I don't know that anything's gonna really, I
- 2:15Speaker 3: don't really think anything's gonna come of it. But you know,
- 2:19Speaker 3: there's a reason that she dumped him in the first
- 2:20Speaker 3: place have we ever seen. But then again, think about this.
- 2:25Speaker 3: I say that, but look at Ari and Lauren and
- 2:29Speaker 3: Jason and Molly and Me and Jared and then a
- 2:35Speaker 3: whole bunch of people from Paradise. They broke up and
- 2:38Speaker 3: then go back together. So you never know what this franchise.
- 2:40Speaker 3: But if you're asking why Jonathan was in the audience,
- 2:43Speaker 3: he was in the audience to stir up some chatter
- 2:47Speaker 3: because and the producers invite him to be there.
- 2:50Speaker 2: Good for him. He's living his best life right now.
- 2:52Speaker 3: Yes, he's been a little bit extraund social. He's like
- 2:56Speaker 3: leaning in a little too far, Jonathan, cool it down.
- 3:00Speaker 3: You're just being too obvious about loving the attention right now.
- 3:03Speaker 3: Love the attention, but it would be so obvious about it.
- 3:06Speaker 2: Ashley, do you think jin should consider going on Bachelor
- 3:10Speaker 2: in Paradise.
- 3:11Speaker 3: I'm a little I'm a little torn as a as
- 3:14Speaker 3: a viewer, I'm like, heck, yes, I want to see
- 3:16Speaker 3: her on Paradise, But as somebody who's thinking about like morals,
- 3:24Speaker 3: if I were her, I'd be like, no, you guys
- 3:26Speaker 3: screwed me over, I'm not going to work with you again. Well,
- 3:31Speaker 3: in a way, they screwed her over, but it was
- 3:33Speaker 3: really Devin who screwed her over. Yes, they showed her
- 3:36Speaker 3: engagement and her propose and that was Yaki, But we're
- 3:41Speaker 3: kind of over that now and we're on to the
- 3:43Speaker 3: fact that she just ended up choosing the worst choice
- 3:47Speaker 3: she could have gone with. Yeah, that's true, and that's
- 3:52Speaker 3: sort of on her, but it's also on them for
- 3:54Speaker 3: casting him. As we've seen, there's plenty that didn't catch.
- 3:58Speaker 2: With Paradise not airing until to twenty five, how can
- 4:01Speaker 2: producers ensure that contestants don't form connections on social media
- 4:05Speaker 2: beforehand like what happened last season?
- 4:08Speaker 3: Well, they cannot, Ben do you agree they cannot because
- 4:11Speaker 3: there's going to be such a gap because it'll have
- 4:13Speaker 3: some of Joey's girls on Paradise and they'll have some
- 4:15Speaker 3: of Grant's girls on Paradise. It's going to be so
- 4:19Speaker 3: hard to say that they haven't mingled, like, of course
- 4:22Speaker 3: they are. They're going to be at the same sort
- 4:23Speaker 3: of events together. They all like to hang out in
- 4:25Speaker 3: groups like, there's going to be plenty of connections formed,
- 4:28Speaker 3: and the show just needs to lean into the fact
- 4:29Speaker 3: that there is almost a show off the show, and
- 4:34Speaker 3: they're going to need to do their best at explaining
- 4:37Speaker 3: the connections that have been made going into paradise. What
- 4:39Speaker 3: do you think?
- 4:40Speaker 2: I have no idea. I was an on Paradise, so
- 4:42Speaker 2: I have no clue how they stop people from talking
- 4:46Speaker 2: or if people do talk. I never did that time
- 4:48Speaker 2: in my life.
- 4:50Speaker 3: Ashley.
- 4:50Speaker 2: If they cast Kelsey Anderson's dad, who's fifty seven, as
- 4:53Speaker 2: the next Golden Bachelor, would that lower the age of
- 4:56Speaker 2: the women's women cast in his season to be in
- 4:59Speaker 2: their face these Would he be more of a silver Bachelor.
- 5:04Speaker 3: I think they're gonna make the cast predominantly in their
- 5:07Speaker 3: sixties just to stay with the theme and to make
- 5:10Speaker 3: sure that there it's actually golden. But I think that
- 5:15Speaker 3: that is kind of the one downside of casting Mark
- 5:20Speaker 3: because they obviously made an exception to their sixty plus
- 5:23Speaker 3: rule by casting him, and then if they cast him
- 5:26Speaker 3: as Golden Bachelor, it's going to bring that question up.
- 5:29Speaker 2: Final question, Ashley, is there anything you're doing differently this
- 5:32Speaker 2: time around with Hayden based on what you've learned with Dawson?
- 5:36Speaker 3: Your final question to me and then I get to
- 5:37Speaker 3: ask you questions.
- 5:39Speaker 2: No, that's final question.
- 5:40Speaker 3: Oh, final question? All right, Well, yes, but they're they're silly,
- 5:45Speaker 3: they're sort of silly things. Number One, when we get
- 5:50Speaker 3: to like eating stages, I'm not gonna let him eat
- 5:53Speaker 3: a lot of the foods that Dawson is just obsessed
- 5:56Speaker 3: with and won't deviate from. Like this kid is going
- 5:59Speaker 3: to start at with vegetables and he may never have
- 6:03Speaker 3: macaroni and cheese until he's like four because I can't
- 6:08Speaker 3: get Dowson to eat a green So I'm just never
- 6:11Speaker 3: gonna like offer Raiden some of the crappy food that
- 6:14Speaker 3: Dawson's obsessed with. And you know, one of the foods
- 6:18Speaker 3: that really gets under the radar are protein bars. Protein
- 6:21Speaker 3: bars are legitimately chocolate bars, and Dawson's so into them
- 6:25Speaker 3: now and I'm just like, no, you cannot have a
- 6:28Speaker 3: chocolate bar in the middle of the day. When you
- 6:29Speaker 3: look at those ingredients, it's ridiculous.
- 6:32Speaker 4: And then this is very silly, But with Dawson, we
- 6:39Speaker 4: would change his diaper all the time. We were changing
- 6:43Speaker 4: his diaper in the middle of the night, multiple times,
- 6:45Speaker 4: whenever he would get up for a bottle, even when
- 6:48Speaker 4: there was like nothing in it. And I'm like, now,
- 6:50Speaker 4: I'm like, no, kid, you know you get your midnight
- 6:54Speaker 4: you're twelve thirty am, bottle, you get your diaper change,
- 6:58Speaker 4: and then you get your diaper change when we all
- 7:00Speaker 4: wake up in the morning. Just like your brother, just
- 7:02Speaker 4: what your brother does now as a toddler.
- 7:04Speaker 2: And everything seems fine, right, Yeah.
- 7:07Speaker 3: He's just peeing there. If he was pooping in the
- 7:09Speaker 3: middle of the night, that'd be one thing, But like, no,
- 7:11Speaker 3: he's sitting here, wet diaper doesn't bother you.
- 7:14Speaker 2: You can be all right. Hey, that's question and answer
