• 0:09
  Speaker 2: You know why, Ashley, I do know why because.
• 0:13
  Speaker 3: It is our first time recapping Bachelor in Paradise this season.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Goodness gracious, are we excited for this? I mean, if
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: you want to get me fired up, you let me

  Speaker 2: watch Bachelor and Paradise and Golden Bachelor in the same
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: week on the same day, and you're gonna make me
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: happy because I think both these shows are hits.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: They're so fun. I got our screener right and it
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: said like.
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: Golden Bachelor ready to watch now, Bachelor in Paradise is
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: ready to watch now. Now. I know we're recording this
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: one first, so I had to watch this one first.
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: But I am dying of curiosity to see what the
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: other one's like. But let's let's talk about Bachelor and
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: Paradise because it lived up.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: I enjoyed it.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: I was captivated through and through, as I normally am
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: with Bachelor and Paradise. They had a fun little bit
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: in the beginning where they use an other old Schools song,
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: what a Feeling Right? And I was like, oh my gosh,
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: is this gonna be like the new intro song. We
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: can't not have an intro. We can't not use almost Paradise, right, Yeah,
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: I think that that's just it's just another.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Almost Paradise, probably up their price a little bit to you.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're like, you guys are using an abusing whoever
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: wrote that song. Well, I'm sure we'll get that at
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: the beginning of next episode. Because this episode was all
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: about the introductions as usual.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: The first hour is pretty much all.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: About just like the meeting and mingling and the reintroductions
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: from the seasons. I guess nobody from this is obviously
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: a surprise, but I will say that once we kind
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: of got to see the cast, I was like, Okay,
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: now I'm placing them. I'm not, I'm placing them now.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: I like kind of remembered everybody's storyline from the previous
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: season what about you.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: The shocker for me was is Blake being there, which
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: we've known, but like, it's just a surprising to see
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: him on the beach. Obviously, Rachel being there was not
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: a shocker. It's just gonna be an interesting dynamic. I
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: think if any bachelorette were to go back to the
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: beach and kind of be you know, well's talked about it,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: like a lot of times the leads come if they
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: come back on the show, kind of have this like
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: leadership mentality where they care for everybody else but not themselves,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: and they're a little bit like just above you know,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: you know, the other people because they were a lead
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: at one point. I don't think Rachel's gonna be that way.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: I think she'll dive in. I think she'll make great TV.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: And I think she is really there because she hasn't
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: had the easiest of times dating in public, and so
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: she's like, why not, you know, why not do this?
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: The other person I didn't know but obviously makes a
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: big splash in episode one is Mercedes. I didn't remember
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: her from the season. I don't remember a lot from
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Zach season honestly, but Mercedes obviously made a big splash
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: right away, and her commentary is fantastic. At least, you know,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: in episode one, I feel like she's somebody that I
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: just want to watch because she has a little bit
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: of the like, the not like the edge and the sarcasm,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: but then she's obviously very sweet and there for the
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: right reasons, but like she can hold her own when
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: it comes to an argument, you can tell.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Well, see I felt that about Olivia. She was she
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: was somebody I don't remember whatsoever.
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: And which Sorry, but she's definitely coming in hot this season.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: And then Kylie, who I do remember from Zach Seuism.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: I think she's going to be a very prominent character.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: She's sweet, and she's obviously going to go head to
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: head with Olivia over especially the next few weeks. Other
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: people that I was like, oh, okay, this is going
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: to be a storyline. Well, Rachel being first sand is
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: worth mentioning. They had to give her that respect of
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: the former bachelorette coming in and being the first one
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: down the beach. That's what Becca got, I believe, And
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: I think, you know, it's like their way to appease
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: a former lead coming back on a big cast show.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Ash Let me ask you this because we've we've touched
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: on it a few times in the past, but I
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: think it's always a good reminder. Why is it so
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: important to be there on week one, like to make
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: the initial entrance.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Well, it's easier to pair up, I'd say it's probably
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: easier to stay long term if you start there, because
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: like you just bond really much more easily. When it's
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: everybody going in at once, you know, you're kind of
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: on an even playing field, and it's it always feels
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: like more of a disadvantage to come in late because
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: people have already paired off, So you're you're going to
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: be less likely to even get like friendship roses. Yeah,
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: you're gonna be less likely to get friendship roses like
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: loyalty roses if you don't go in early.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: Okay, second question to that, how does the friendship roses work?
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Like?
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Is that a secret conversation? Is it just the like
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: unspoken understanding? Is it frowned upon in paradise to get
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: a friendship rose?
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: No, I don't think it's frowned upon, And usually it's
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: like pretty well like mutually agreed upon, unless somebody is
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: leading the other person on and there's like actual like
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: physical intimacy.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Okay, So it's good to be there night one because
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: it's just easier to make the connections and then and
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: to make the friendships that are necessary for you to
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: be around long enough to maybe meet somebody that you
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: are into and that you want to build a relationship
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: with see. For me, if I was in Rachel's situation,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: I'd be like, hey, I want to come in week
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: two and I want to be in Paradise for all
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: five four weeks, five weeks, however long it is. I
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: want to come in late. I want to see what's
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: going on, and then I want to bounce, like if
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: it's not working, I'm good with it.
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: Not no, because you don't want to tear up relationships.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: You don't want to go in that you're with that,
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: you want who's on your list to be with somebody. Okay, no, No,
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: you're just going in on a second or third week.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Is just like you becoming part of a love triangle
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: almost most likely.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: And those are never fun. We've known because the.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: Catches are usually kind of taken. But speaking of catches,
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: that is what I wanted to mention, isn't it rude?
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: It's always like this on Paradise.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: I feel like, but like the girls are just like
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: so much prettier and like so much more catches than
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: the guys are. Like every season, I'm like, I would
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: date every one of these girls, but like the guys,
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: you'd have to convince me to go on a date
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: with like pretty much every one of them.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and the girls, I mean, especially this season, I think,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: and probably seasons of the past. Uh, the girls are
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: so so much more outspoken and communicative and they just
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: have like a lot more like swagger when it comes
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: to how they talk to the guys. The guys say
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: the most awkward things. I mean, at every conversation, I'm
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: covering my because some dude says something so awkward and
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: just like cringey, and the girls are always so like
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: chill and just good at like communicating with these guys.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: It does feel that way to me. I will say this,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: and this was in my notes. I think I say
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: it every year. I just and I was talking to
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Jess about it, like how do they find so many
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: dudes with so many apps? Like what is going on
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: here that these guys are not much younger than me.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I work out every day of my life. I'm in
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: fine shape. I feel fine about myself. I feel great
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: about myself. I mean, I'm not ripping my shirt off
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: in public so that I because I don't think people
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: are gonna be like whoa, but like I'm good. But
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: these dudes, every single one of them, are just absolutely
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: massively Jack, Like what is going on? Ben?
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Like you got a six back at one point?
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: Sure, I think that like it all, it's just all
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: about your priorities.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Okay, so that's just like the.
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: Priority is like finding someone and you and you're finding
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: somebody on TV. So your main priority and leading up
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: to the show is working out looking good.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Okay, that's what Jessica said. She says, you have to
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: understand that for the last three months of their life,
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: they've dieted, they've consumed so much protein, and they've spent
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: all day in the gym just preparing for these moments.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: And I was like, that makes more sense. Okay, I
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: don't do that right with my life. I work out
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: every day for about an hour, let's say, and then
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: I don't come home and chug like a protein shake
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: and then I don't think about what I eat. Okay,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: that makes more sense. But these yeah, they're all pretty jacked.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Every I mean, everybody's looking good on the beach. It's
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: a very good looking group of people. I would say
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: in general, I think that's what for me as I
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: watch this, like Paradise would be so difficult to be
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: a part of because there's so many beautiful options available
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: on the beach, at least from week one, Like when
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: nobody's coupled up. I think from week one it would
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: be really hard to be like, yeah, I'm into you
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: the most. It's like, how do you know everybody's good looking?
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: That brought up a couple thoughts.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: Okay, well, first off, everybody thought that you looked so
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: good in that Instagram reel that I posted of you
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: in Mountain.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Cheek, so I should wear a suit and a cowboy
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: hat Cowboys of the Beach.
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: Yes, everybody was like, oh my god, Ben, you can
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: go get.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: A little a little ego boost if you want to go.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Read the comments under.
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: That real Well no, because I had a like, no,
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: I don't have to because I got a lot of
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: messages this league saying this is my look.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: Well, or the comment being like he looks so different,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: he looked so handsome. That was one of the comments.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Top Yeah I was. I was like, dang, all right,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: cool okay.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: So my other thought was that Eliza, she's always been beautiful,
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: but like came down and I remembered what a beauty
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: she was, and I was like, oh my.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: Gosh, she looks so good. She was a surprise.
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: Definitely a surprised to see her come down there was
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: she not on the original cast list. If not, I
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: would I overlooked the fact that she has such a
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: big storyline last season between Justin and Rodney and then
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: Blake coming down. Oh my gosh, Blake looks so good.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: He looks I think the best he's ever looked on
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: any of these shows. The way that his facial hair
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: is and the facial hair change up whatever that is.
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: It's like less of a billy goat look so good
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: for him. And then I'm usually not a fan of
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: a buzz cut, but the buzz cut looks so good
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: on him. If I was just looking at like the
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: guy casts, I'd be like, Okay, yeah, Blake definitely stands
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: out as being like one of the ones that probably
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: is going to be fought after more. However, he and
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: Jess really kick it off and hit it off, not
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: kick it off. They're kicking it off too. But I'm
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: thinking there's not a lot of buzz around him after
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: his entrance, and they show him in jests together kissing,
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: and I'm like, Okay, well, I wonder if these two
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: are just gonna be like smooth sailing because he doesn't
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: seem to have there There's not a lot of attention
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: on somebody who I think there would have been on
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: and maybe just be one of those couples that kind
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: of quietly go by.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I think with Blake what we've seen, Yes,
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: he has been on multiple Bachelor Atte seasons. One of
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: them was kind of one all tied into one. He
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: is somebody that probably falls hard, falls fast, and is
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: committed to whatever, you know, what is in front of
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: him or what he's most interested in. Like, we haven't
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: seen him, you know, we don't. We don't. I don't
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: get the like f boy vibes from Blake, ever, I
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: get very much like a romantic who just wants to
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: find love and he just sometimes makes really bad choices
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: in finding it. But I think he's probably a pretty
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: committed dude, and so I think it'd be hard for
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: him to imagine leaving Jess at this point once they've
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: already kind of formed their relationship. Do you agree with that?
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: Well?
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: The only thing that you know always like kind of
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: rubbed me the wrong way, which is why I gave
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: him a hard time, was because he was very crude.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, and how he was very Oh yeah, yeah, that's true,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: and it.
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: Made a lot of sense as to why he was
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: with Katie. Now I'm surprised at this coupling with jess
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: just because when she when she was on our podcast,
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: I was like, this girl seems so innocent, so sweet
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: and innocent and very religious. So I'm wondering, like if
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: this is just a physical attraction at this point, and
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: they have that they started to.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: Talk about, Yeah, that's a good point that because at
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: some point that those obviously become massive conversations once you
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: get over the infatuation with looks and with you know,
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: she say she was kind of starstruck and all that.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: Once that kind of fades, then you can start to
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: dive into Okay, who actually heart you as a human,
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: Like what are you about? What do you believe in?
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: What do you care about?
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Do you know what? I noticed?
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: It was something big on you know how Jessica. Jess
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: is just really known for her body glitter, and they
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: made like the little joke with having glitter around her
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: when she first came him down fake glitter, Like yeah,
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: post post editing glitter. Brayden had glitter, gold glitter all
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: over his chest in one scene and I was like,
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: oh my gosh, or did they have something that they
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: didn't clip in interesting?
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: Or I mean, could you also just see could you
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: also just see Braiden putting glitter on his chest?
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, Okay, I was gonna say, I mean that's
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: where my mind went, is like, this dude is just
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: all out going for everything. Okay, let's jump to Braiden
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: for a second. Break it. Yeah, Braiden was obviously a
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: big character coming off his season of The Bachelorette. Controversial character.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Can't really call him a villain, just probably more he
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: was just disliked. It felt like by the cast. There's
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: a lot of cast members that were with him on
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: that season, so there probably a little standoffish. I will
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: say that so far, Paradise suits Braiden a lot better
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: than The Bachelorette did. I just think it feels it
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: feels like his weird comments, like about bragging about making
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: out with the lead. It feels like his competitive nature.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: It feels like his kind of goofiness can all be
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: hidden because he'll be in a relationship or he'll be
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: trying to date different people and it won't be unless
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: he enters into a love triangle, he just won't be
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: as controversial of a character. And that's always what we
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: hope for Paradise is that people they have the ability
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: to redeem themselves or have a redemption story. Now if
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: they take it or not, or if they're the you know,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: if they prove to us that there ass likable because
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: what we think they might be, which Braiden always kind
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: of towed that line, then Paradise is a good place
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: to get your redemption story told. Some have not, you know,
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: some have proven to be the same person they were
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: the seasons before, but others have like the Thomas Jacobs
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: of the world. I mean, talk about a glow up.
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: I know, Bryden reminded me so much, and I think
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: he might be with me on here of Dean in Paradise. Sure,
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: the way that he sat with Kat is just something
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: about his demeanor. And then I was thinking, like, oh
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: my gosh, this is like, so Dean vibes right, So
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: Dean vibes right now in vibe count. And then all
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: of a sudden Kat was like, She's like he's like
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: a golden Retriever. And I was like, exactly what we
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: call Dean So.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: It's hard to compare to those two for me because
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: I've seen Dean over the years prove to be yes,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: mature and yes like still you know, goofy and wild
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: and doing crazy things. But Dean was never disliked like
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: He's just always been likable. And the Golden Retriever comment
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: is is okay if we didn't also know? I mean,
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: could you ever see Dean on a season of The
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Bachelorette making out the lead and then going and telling
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: everybody that he just made out with her?
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: No, it's not about them like fundamentally as people.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: It's more about vibes.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: Very similar vibes, I will say, and Braiden. You know,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: the difference with Dean and Braiden. I think it can
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: be summarized like this. I get what you're saying. I
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: do agree that their similarities. You know, Braiden was just
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: there's a headline that we talked about where Braiden and
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: some of his buddies were on a boat and the
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: boat sink.
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: Right, Wait, really, where the heck was I.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: I have no idea, but yeah, this is a big headline.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Braiden and one other guy from the Bachelorette from the
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: same season, We're out in this boat. They got a
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: line around the motor, they turned off the boat, and
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: the boat sank. Mostly I would assume because I grew
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: up on a lake, that they didn't have the plug
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: in the boat at any moment, which is boating one
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: on one, like there's a plug that you that you
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: can put in or put out. And once the boat
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: stops moving, obviously water starts coming in. The boat's gone,
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: they sink. So they're out in the ocean for three
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: hours waiting for help. They did get help. I would
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: say the big difference with Braiden Dean would be Dean
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: would one make sure that that plug was in, and
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: if it wasn't in, Dean would just swam ashore. Like
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: there's no question in my mind He's not sit down
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: in the middle ocean. I just think Dean has a
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: little more adventure in him and that fits his look.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: That's my point.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, oh okay, yeah, yeah completely. Let's talk about these two,
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: the enemies of these two who have hit it off,
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: Kat and Braiden. So Aaron b we all know that
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: he wasn't going to look forward to seeing Braiden there,
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: and he starts some like unnecessary foofy drama about like
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: the fact that like Braiden walked down the stairs and
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: like immediately started talking to a girl and didn't say
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: hello to everyone.
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: I'm like, Aaron, just they get off of it.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Aaron's gotta be careful because he annoys me.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Why does Aaron annoy me?
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Because I think I think what annoys me about Aaron
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: would be that I look at this dude and I'm like,
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: you are obviously a great dude, very good looking, you're
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: very likable, but you self sabotage yourself by thinking about
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: Braiden so much that it's just annoying. Like you don't
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: need to You don't, especially in Paradise. You do not
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: have to protect anybody from Braiden. They're gonna figure it
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: out on their own, and and if there's even protection
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: that's necessary, right, Like they can they can date him,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: and if they're into Braiden, that's great. But he's just
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: he has this like weird moment of obsessiveness with Braiden.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: And what I want to see in Aaron b for
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: the rest of the season. Will him just give that up,
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Like he's he doesn't need to be Braiden's worst enemy.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: There's no, there's nothing that the two of them need
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: to fight about, unless again, they enter into a love triangle,
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: which would be very interesting. But yeah, it just annoys
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: me because it's like, Aaron, we just have you not
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: learned yet? Like this does not do any good for you?
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: Okay. So then on the other side, Kat's enemy is Brooklyn,
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: who really seems to like can't stand the girl, the
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: way that she made fun of her at the beginning
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: when she was like Cat might be here and I'm
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: not excited, but like and she was like making fun
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: of her, complaining all the time and her hand motions.
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: It was actually hilarious to see the parallel because they
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: like go immediately to Kat's room at Vedanta and she's
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: like complaining.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: About what like the light, the lights too much?
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: The light.
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, she can't open her eyes in the sun. Totally
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: can relate to that. I'm always in bad They're like, ashually,
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: just close your eyes, look into the sun and then
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: open them and you'll be fine. I'm like you, no, no,
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: you don't understand. My eyes can't. I can't, I cannot see.
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: So totally relatable moment. However, like let's just get to
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: this is talking about what's going on here Brooklyn like
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: they From a producer's standpoint, the two of them have
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: to get in a love triangle because the hatred, the
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: spewing of ooh, that's gonna come from Brooklyn towards Cat
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: would be probably good TV.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: But also like, I don't know, it's like girl, chill out.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: She scares me. Brooklyn scares me.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: Can I be honest with you? Why I think she
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: scares you?
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: Why you think that she's like You're like Ashley, that's you.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: No, you are not Brooklyn. I think you're a lot
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: more like Cat. Yeah, and I think I think Brooklyn
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: is probably for whatever reason. Meaness you me PTSD Yeah,
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: meaness to the people like you who are who don't
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: who would definitely complain about the bugs in the beach? Yeah,
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: who would definitely. I don't know if you like sand
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: or not, but would complain about the sand. Okay, but
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: if you didn't like it, you would definitely like make
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: sure everybody knew knew you you didn't like sand. You'd
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: be hot, you would be sweaty. You'd be talking about
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: how hot and sweaty you are, and like, so it's
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: just you, like that's your personality. And the people like
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Brooklyn who I don't know, don't appreciate or that that
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: maybe rubs them the wrong way. And I'm sure you've
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: ran into those people in your life, just like I've
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: ran into people that don't like me. There's a certain
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: type of person that really doesn't like me. And those
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: people scare me because they're just mean.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: They're just okay, because like I've obviously, like given people
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: in the show like One have made fun of people.
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: We all know this, but the way that Brooklyn does
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: it freaks me out because it just seems mean spirited.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: There's like no lightness to it. There's no her laughing
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: and she's barely like I guess she does laugh, yeah,
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: but it just seems like it's a really it's really
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: ingroined in her soul that she doesn't like her and
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: she likes to make fun of people she doesn't like.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, and they've also had a history on the
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: show before, and so that obviously plays into that. Even
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: if you know, even if she didn't necessarily appreciate Cat's personality,
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: their history on the show is obviously gonna like come
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: into paradise because the show knows they can, like, the
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: producers know they can get Brooklyn to bring that into Paradise,
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: and so you know, we see it. It's heightened. That
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: always causes good TV in Paradise is the conflicts between
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: the two people. But maybe, just like last season, maybe
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: possibly we could see these conflicts and these two people
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: not liking each other become good friends because of the
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: turmoils and the sadness and the shared experience leads them
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: to go, I don't dislike you as much as I
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: thought I did. I actually don't hate you at all.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: And then they become friends and they start to appreciate
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: each other. That was an that was anun not even
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: an unspoken It was an underlying theme of last season
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: on Paradise. That was really beautiful to see was the
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: friendships that were made from people that were previously enemies.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's almost as cool as a love,
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: you know, romance.
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, those are fun. Those are fun.
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: Let's get to the big triangle that is this episode,
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: and that is between Will, Olivia and Kylie.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: What was your initial take?
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I I don't know. I want to
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: ask you this ash, have you ever been in the
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: suckingd toes.
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: Nobody's watching this episode without trying to think of them
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: sucking their significant others toes. We've already had sucking toes
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: and a couple of seasons ago.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and we've brought it back. And I'm just like.
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: I and this is a comment that I know a
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: lot of it's rated r and I know that a
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: lot of us are thinking of it. Though, why are
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: you okay with putting some things in our mouth from
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: the body and the other.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: We're like toes?
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Isn't that Rachel's comment that I thought was hilarious. Yes,
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: I thought Rachel's comment was hilarious. She's like, I don't
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: I need a guy that wants me suck his toes?
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: I put a lot weirder things in my mouth. And
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: I thought, like for Rachel to say that as the
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: lead in episode one made me laugh, like it made
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: me like belly laugh because I was like that one
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: takes comments too. It's not not true. Now, I will say,
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: like my wife right now, and my feet get a
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: great rating on Wiki feet like I got, I have
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: fine feet.
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: You have good feet for some reason. I can see
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: them in my head right now.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I have fine feet. But like if we're laying
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: on the couch, you know, and she's at one end
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: a month, I'm at the other end. My feet are
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: like at her by her face, like she doesn't love it,
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: like it's not it's she kind of like puts a
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: cover over him or puts a blanket over him, like
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: it's just not her thing. It's never really been something
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: I've thought of in my life as something that I
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: was I would like to think about the only other
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: time in my life I've ever thought about it was
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: Rex Ryan once when he was a couch guy. So,
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: but it's an interesting conversation to kick off with. And
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: I think it was more lighthearted and funny and kind
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: of wild. And I don't think either of them were
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: against the idea of it. I just don't think they.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: I don't I think it was being overly sexualized. I
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: don't think either of them we're thinking, oh, yeah, please
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: do this is the best thing ever. I think it
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: was like more of a laughing like, hey, this is
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: awkward first, like we're on the paradise. Somehow it got
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: brought up. But I will say as the conversation continued,
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: it did feel like that initial kind of icebreaker of
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: you know in a second, toes led them to have
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: a real connection, like some laughter together.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: Now it was some hardcore flirting.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: It was like I would say, it was like hardcore flirting.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: It was aggressive flirting would be And yes, it was wild,
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: and it got way overplayed on the show and everybody
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: was talking about it, and everybody's like, you can't talk
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: about sucking toes and then going on a date with
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: somebody else, And I'm like, this is the wildest statements
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: I've ever heard.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: Of course, it was the kiss, but it is so
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: fast kiss again.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: Yes, you're right, it's.
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: I know the flirting of the toe sucking led to
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: the kiss.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: That's where I would I have a problem with it.
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: Okay, So I felt a lot more sexual connection, a
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: lot more just like heat around Will with Olivia than
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: I did with Will with Kylie. I don't know that
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: I feel Will with Will really likes Kylie at the
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: end of this episode.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: But I think the.
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: Real question here is like how much disrespect was there?
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: Was it as much as Olivia made it seem because
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: they kissed and she didn't and he didn't ask for
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: like quote permission or at least like have a conversation
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: like hey, I might go out with Kylie.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: How much disrespect was there? Because yes, in a perfect world,
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: I do think he should have talked to her. But
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: at the same time, it.
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: Was day one, So does day one play a big
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: role in the.
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: Needing to have a conversation before going out with somebody else?
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: Just I see both sides. I'm pretty much I'm a
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: little bit more on Olivia's side, but I think she
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: was very dramatic about it. But then again, look who's
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: talking Ashley, I who said I'm basically in love with
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: somebody on day one? So I'm a big hypocrite.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: Sure we all are at some point, So you know,
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: I'd have to throw that question to you, is is
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: it appropriate or not? I think in the past we've
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: talked about Paradise and this conversation always comes up somehow,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: some way while Paradise is airing, was what should they
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: have done better? Or what? You know, as we have
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: as we look back on that situation and we're able
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: to analyze it and judge it from the perspective of
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: we've gotten to see the whole thing play out. What
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: could have been done better? How do feelings get hurt less?
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: Or you know, all of those things. There's always we
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: always talk about that during Paradise. For me, personally, I
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: don't think he had to tell alv he's going in
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: the state. And the reason is because they have not
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: defined their relationship at all. It is day one. They
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: have not, to my knowledge, said yes, let's be exclusive
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: or let's date to figure this out. I mean, isn't
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: that what paradise is. It's a jumbling chaos of dating,
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: and so on day one, if you're gonna make I mean,
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of people are making out. I
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: would assume in the history of Paradise on day one,
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: with the drinks start flowing, the water's raging, the sun
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: is shining, everybody's looking good, everybody's excited, everybody's all horned up,
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: and they're just going down there and making out with
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: each other on day one. And then you know, as
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: you get farther in the you know, chaos settles and
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: you start to figure out what relationships exist and which
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: ones don't. But I'm not viewing that makeout as a relationship.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: And so I don't know if he had to ask
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: for permission, because I feel like that could get messy
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: if every time in paradise. The appropriate thing to do is, Hey,
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: you kissed this person and now you get to ask
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: on a date and you have to go back to
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: the person you just kissed, you know, previously, and said, hey,
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: is that okay? Like what permission? Are you just telling them? Like, Hey,
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go on this date. You kind of did
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: by getting up and saying that, I don't even.
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think she wanted permission to be asked.
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: I think she just wanted him to talk to her.
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: And it's like, you're just being I don't know, like
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: welcome to Paradise is basically what I have to say
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: about that.
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: It's like it's day one and I don't think you
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: had for a rookie paradise.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: I'm sure she's like trying to figure this out too,
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: you know what is appropriate?
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: Bitter? She was also like she scares me a little bit.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: Well, she's bitter, but she's funny. I think she cares
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: a little bit less than what she's leading on. I
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: think she's yeah, I think they should have lead into it. Yeah,
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: she's leading in leaning into it. I don't think she
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: is is as serious about it yet as we think.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think she has like a lot
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: of like feelings towards Will. Yet again, it's been hours.
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: She's probably super like attracted to him or whatever, but
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: I wasn't. This is not this is not going to
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: be the biggest controversy of the season. This is gonna
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: be something we quickly forget and as of next week
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: when contract well, because if they even.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: Thinkvaden because of Aiden coming in.
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: So this is my take, Aban I said, Aiden, Wow,
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: I watched too much Check in the City. Okay, so
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: when Avian comes in, I feel like one Kylie very likable.
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: I'm excited to watch her to think that she very
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: much is jumping in too fast to the Will thing.
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: She's showing too much interest because she knows Avan's going
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: to show up, and you got a factor in like
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: this is day one.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: Everything is exciting, but like.
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: You're gonna want to give aid In a chance if
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: he was on your list, You're gonna want to always
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: like get a little flirt on with the person that
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: was on your list.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: I mean that, you know, the previews don't show this.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: I have a feeling that Will is definitely kicked to
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: the curb pretty quick.
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so too.
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: I think it's actually telling that the ship that the
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: previews didn't mention.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: Here's here's what I think happens. And I have no idea,
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: but here's what I watched I think happens. After watching
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: the preview, Avin comes to the beach. Kylie's interested in Avan.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: She brings that up to him to Avan, Will is
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: out of the picture. Then at this point, like the guy,
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: the guy has nobody. He's not going back to Olivia.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: Maybe he finds somebody else in the beach that he's into.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: But like Kylie and Will's really ship stops and then
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: it's a love triangle with avon Kylie and Olivia. Will's
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: out of the picture of that group here, fairly.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: Kicked out of it. There's no square, there's no love square.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: There's no love square. That was my thought is, yeah,
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: she brings it up to Will pretty quickly. Hey, yeah,
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: this was cool, this was great. But I like the
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: saving guy, or I want to see what happens. So
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: that's why Will is crying because he suddenly left trying
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: to find somebody new. Obviously, they're giving out the roses
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: in week one, so Will does have the ability to
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: stick around, probably or he will be sticking around, so yeah.
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: Figure out they're definitely giving out the roses.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: But he but Kylie's out of the picture for him.
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: I think you're probably right.
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: Anything else we didn't cover, I'd say, Rachel, Recie, you
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: know we have her kissing Sean. I'll say this a
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: little something fun for the podcast. I texted Rachel, I go,
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: you look so good in Paradise, Like paradise humidity.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: Is your vibe? Can I say vibe?
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: And then she goes, did I do anything embarrassing? Did
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: I kiss anyone? And I got to kiss Sean? And
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: she goes, oops, I forgot I did that?
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: There you go, there you go?
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: You know spoiler alert?
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah why not? Hey? Like I said, people go down
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: to Paradise and they just start kissing each other. It
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: happens every season. They just make it out all the time.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: But I think that's part of it. Everybody's very excited
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: to get the beach. Everybody's feeling looking their best at
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: this moment. Right. Everybody's clean, like clean and showered within
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: the last day. Nobody's sweating yet, and somebody's like, this
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: is if I have one day to be But.
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: It's still sexy at this point.
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, until you know later on in the season where
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: it gets really hot and sticky and smelly for everybody.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: Do people smell on the beach typically Ashley.
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: I know things. I don't remember anyone smelling.
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: But I do remember one other thing that we have
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: to talk about before we wrap up this podcast, and
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: that is the fact that somebody's getting.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: Married down in Paradise this season.
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: I don't know, but I don't think it's any former cast,
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: So I don't think it's any like former Bachelor in
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: Paradise couple going to get married. I think it's like
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: somebody in the current cast. No, yeah, I think it's
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: I wondered that that's a good question, is who would
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: be getting married in Paradise because the couples that from
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: the past that are engaged now, could it be Kenny
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: and Mari Mm?
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: I don't think.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: So.
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: They're going to do the Puerto Rico wedding and then
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: they're going to do like an American reception or something.
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: It's not like off the table. But don't you think
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: we would have heard of that about that? I would
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: they keep that under.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: Wraps for so long?
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: I have no idea, So yeah, yeah, that was something.
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: That would like have a press release on once they
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: filmed it.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Somebody, somebody's getting married, we just don't know who yet. Now.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: The final statement that I'd like to make is in
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: support of somebody on the show. Okay, I am so
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: happy that this is not taboo. Right. Four times a
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: year I make my way to Central America times, bringing
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: groups sometimes not travel is always a very stressful scenario,
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: and especially if you're traveling to a place for a
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: long period of time. I don't know her name, but
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: the girl that hasn't pooped in nine days. I'm glad
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: this is being shown on television because this is a
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: real thing that we've had to deal with on trips.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: I've been on many times with men and women where
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: they become constipated.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: They have to deliver a poop baby.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: Now I've never heard of that.
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: The turtle is too much. The turtle was too much.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: It was kind of hilariously accurate though it was like crazy.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: It.
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: Was crazy, but it was too much for me. Like
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: it just I didn't need it. Because immediately my mind
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: goes to that that is very accurate. I feel bad
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: for her because so I just want to skit the
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: statement out there on the first episode. I feel bad
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: for her because we all know anybody listening knows how
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: terrible of a feeling that is. Right when that happens
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: to you, it's you start to feel sick. Your body's yeah,
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: your body starts to kind of like revolt against itself.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: Food doesn't taste good, you're bloated, and then.
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: You're going to be on nash in there where food
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: doesn't taste good.
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: No, well just wait eight days.
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: I feel like you've experienced this personal way.
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: Oh one hundred percent. Like I said, it's I'm glad
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: we're talking about it because it's a real thing. And
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: I think I feel bad for her because I know
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: that she is so embarrassed, Like I'm embarrassed on these
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: trips with even like family and friends talking about it sometimes,
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: like it's a very uncomfortable scenario to be like, yeah,
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm sick right now. I'm not in A'm not
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: in the way you think. Now she's on national television
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: on a beach in a bathing suit, trying to date,
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: and this is her experience of paradise. I'm sure she
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: was so excited to get to the beach, so she
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: I'm sure she was so excited to see who she
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: was going to meet, and now her story is going
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: to be that they have to deliver a poop baby,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: which I also want to know, what that? How did?
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: How do you do that?
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: I don't know, Like that's so embarrassing.
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: So I told I've said this on the podcast before,
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: and it's okay because Jade has been open about it.
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: But that's what happened in Paradise season two. Jade hadn't
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: gone for a week, maybe even a little bit more,
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: and they were like giving her edemas and stuff. Yeah,
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: and it eventually happened, I think, but she.
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: Had to be open with Tanner about this the entire time.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: Sure, well that's where they got married. I think that
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: probably helped these like, uh, we went this far in
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: two weeks, we might as well go the whole way.
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: Like I know, and I told you last time we
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: brought this up.
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: I think when they first showed the teaser, the doctor
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: there in Paradise last season said like, you'd think that
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: we'd be dealing with like diarrhea issues, but actually we
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: deal with a lot of constipation.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean, I just I just I want
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: to give our rally our support around her and say, hey,
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: you're you're doing great girl, Like.
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: Of course, it's happened to the girl who like left
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: night one because she was like uncomfortable being in part
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: of the experience.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: Of course. Yeah, it's just this show is not working
• 38:07
