- 1:28Speaker 1: this isn't the real one. Okay, well, this is very
- 1:33Speaker 1: exciting for you guys to be in my home. You
- 1:34Speaker 1: are here in Rhode Island because you are so gracious
- 1:38Speaker 1: and so sweet to bless us with two Audrey's appearances
- 1:43Speaker 1: where you're meeting the hungryest ladies. You guys, they're out
- 1:47Speaker 1: for your blood. Animal kingdom out here. I don't know
- 1:51Speaker 1: what hasn't been here in Rhode Island for a while,
- 1:53Speaker 1: but uh, you know, it was. It was. It was
- 1:56Speaker 1: quite what I was expecting, I did. I don't think
- 1:59Speaker 1: I was expecting that. Yeahs exciting. I was telling you
- 2:02Speaker 1: that all the ladies of Rhode Island were like this,
- 2:05Speaker 1: this was their holiday season coming to see you. I
- 2:09Speaker 1: told them that they were going to be a wild
- 2:11Speaker 1: And then, guys, tickets went on sale. There was like
- 2:13Speaker 1: a hundred and some tickets per event. They sold them
- 2:18Speaker 1: out in five minutes, So yeah, we had to add
- 2:21Speaker 1: the second night. They were, um, they're really nice, but
- 2:24Speaker 1: you know, everyone was very lively and had a lot
- 2:27Speaker 1: of energy. Um. I think we got down to a
- 2:29Speaker 1: lot of martinis, a lot of martinis, and you know
- 2:33Speaker 1: he was getting a little frisky. But it was fun,
- 2:37Speaker 1: justin um explaining the treat that was left by your
- 2:41Speaker 1: meet and green area the one so you know, throughout
- 2:47Speaker 1: the night Andrew and I, you know, we got a
- 2:48Speaker 1: couple of Christmas cards. We've got a nice water bottle,
- 2:51Speaker 1: you know, very couple numbers I was asking for, you know, UM,
- 2:56Speaker 1: some recommendations around the area in Newport whatever. Um. At
- 3:00Speaker 1: the end of the night, we um, we received a thong.
- 3:05Speaker 1: Was it was? It? Was it like? Was it like
- 3:08Speaker 1: the days of Elvis where they actually took off the
- 3:12Speaker 1: underwear in person or was it the days of like
- 3:14Speaker 1: One Direction where they brought underwear in their purse to
- 3:17Speaker 1: throw at you. That's a good question, it is. So
- 3:20Speaker 1: I didn't see anything come off live. UM, I think
- 3:26Speaker 1: we would have seen that. Yes, So I think it
- 3:28Speaker 1: was like a predetermined gesture. I'm hoping it wasn't fresh
- 3:33Speaker 1: off the body. Do you know what? My sister and
- 3:37Speaker 1: I guess me by association. But I wasn't the one
- 3:40Speaker 1: who did it, and it was my number At a
- 3:42Speaker 1: Jessie McCartney concert, she attached her her number to a
- 3:47Speaker 1: pair of a thong with like a little string, threw
- 3:50Speaker 1: it up on stage, made sure that he knew that
- 3:52Speaker 1: it was her that threw it up on stage. He
- 3:55Speaker 1: called her afterwards, No he did it. Oh yeah, and
- 3:58Speaker 1: we went on his bus years ago. Guys, I know
- 4:04Speaker 1: he's happily married now. I'm telling you this is like
- 4:06Speaker 1: twelve thirteen years ago. How would you reacted if we
- 4:09Speaker 1: were up there taking picture and you see somebody slink
- 4:11Speaker 1: shot it smacks st right in the forehead, you know, Like,
- 4:14Speaker 1: how would you react? I would? I would honestly freeze
- 4:18Speaker 1: and I'd be like, oh, who threw this? I was
- 4:20Speaker 1: like what the bag? You know? I think I wouldn't
- 4:26Speaker 1: know how to react in front of in front of
- 4:28Speaker 1: a crowd and someone throws that, And that's that's a
- 4:30Speaker 1: lot of confidence to just like pocket that. You know.
- 4:33Speaker 1: That's that's my thing is. You know, whoever brought it,
- 4:38Speaker 1: they wanted it to get to us. Why not hand
- 4:41Speaker 1: deliver it? It It could have been a discreet like behind
- 4:43Speaker 1: the back like this, you know what I mean? Like
- 4:45Speaker 1: why planted in Audrey? Well, yeah, my question also is like,
- 4:49Speaker 1: why isn't a number attached to it? It's just it's
- 4:51Speaker 1: just they're like, this is the market you made on me? Like,
- 4:54Speaker 1: I mean, this doesn't help her get with you. You know. Actually,
- 4:59Speaker 1: one of my favorite movies National Treasure, So it feels
- 5:01Speaker 1: like a treasure hunt at this point. We have to
- 5:06Speaker 1: find out. I think it's like a glass flipper cluptic
- 5:11Speaker 1: way to find out. This could be the love of
- 5:13Speaker 1: our lives. We don't even know it run under our nose. Yeah,
- 5:18Speaker 1: and she's just like seeing if we can, you know,
- 5:20Speaker 1: find her leaving bread crumbs. I kind of respect it.
- 5:26Speaker 1: You think we'll find something else tonight? You think you
- 5:29Speaker 1: think we'll find something else planted tonight? Tonight the girl
- 5:35Speaker 1: has got a second ticket for tonight's event, and she's
- 5:37Speaker 1: going to leave a bra and she's breadcrumbing you. She
- 5:41Speaker 1: is now. Um, I would say that it's kind of
- 5:45Speaker 1: an ironic move, considering at dinner last night Andrew was
- 5:50Speaker 1: telling me how he wants a wholesome girl. So I'm
- 5:52Speaker 1: thinking that possibly this isn't the way to win you over.
- 5:57Speaker 1: That is correct, Yeah, I told you, Yeah, No, I
- 6:02Speaker 1: I just you know, I love clues. I love the
- 6:07Speaker 1: big game night, guys. So, um, we're on the right track.
- 6:10Speaker 1: I don't think this is the game I don't want
- 6:12Speaker 1: to play, but I feel like I have to finish,
- 6:14Speaker 1: you know, So Justin, is this the way to win
- 6:17Speaker 1: you over? You know? You know? Perhaps perhaps I want
- 6:25Speaker 1: to tell you why it's not why it's it's not
- 6:27Speaker 1: for the reasons that's you think. It's because I respect
- 6:29Speaker 1: the boldness, I respect the humor behind it, and can't
- 6:35Speaker 1: we having to say this? But it's like I like
- 6:37Speaker 1: a tasteful amount of crazy, not crazy crazy, but like
- 6:40Speaker 1: it's a little bit it's like funny crazy, you know
- 6:41Speaker 1: what I mean, like for somebody to do like it's
- 6:43Speaker 1: bold crazy funny. Does this surprise us? Being that he
- 6:46Speaker 1: dated Genevieve and Victoria and when not at all? He's
- 6:50Speaker 1: a Gemini everyone, He's a Gemini. This is what he
- 6:52Speaker 1: does as as a as an Aquarius and a friend.
- 6:55Speaker 1: I've I've seen how he loves just the bad banter,
- 6:58Speaker 1: the toxic on a banter. I'm just kidding you guys,
- 7:02Speaker 1: have like legitimately just told your Paradise story. So simply
- 7:07Speaker 1: you're with Teddy the Virgin and then he was with
- 7:10Speaker 1: just the right touch of crazy. I don't think it was.
- 7:17Speaker 1: It was a splash, it was a little dousing. It
- 7:25Speaker 1: was more than just I'd like that, you know, like
- 7:27Speaker 1: when you have um, when you have like a what
- 7:30Speaker 1: do you call it? A uh, what's the brunch? Um?
- 7:34Speaker 1: A mimosa? Right, you see the videos, it's like all champagne.
- 7:37Speaker 1: It's like a little yea of orange juice. Like that's
- 7:39Speaker 1: what I like for crazy, Like a little you know
- 7:41Speaker 1: what I mean, Like, you know, right, just bright orange, No, no, no,
- 7:49Speaker 1: just a little yeah. So, how much orange juice is
- 7:54Speaker 1: in Genevieve's of flute that day? Tropic anni? Um? Uh?
- 8:12Speaker 1: The next question is how much tropicana is in Victoria's flute? Yeah,
- 8:19Speaker 1: we love Victoria. We love Victoria. Sorry, uh, shout out
- 8:25Speaker 1: to Victoria and Greg you know we love you guys. Alright, alright, okay, well,
- 8:30Speaker 1: we are going to do in depth episodes with both
- 8:34Speaker 1: Andrew and Justin today. We're recording them though I'm sure
- 8:37Speaker 1: be released sporadically. But what we're gonna do, which is
- 8:40Speaker 1: gonna be fun, is Andrew and I are going to
- 8:43Speaker 1: do being the host of Justin's In Depth and then
- 8:47Speaker 1: Justin and I are going to host Andrew's In Depth,
- 8:50Speaker 1: So like we have a best friend interviewing the other.
- 8:53Speaker 1: So that's gonna be really cool. I just the word
- 8:56Speaker 1: best friend, Like, would you guys consider yourselves almost know?
- 9:00Speaker 1: We're like, you know, it's me Justin and Gregg and
- 9:02Speaker 1: we could throw in Mike and Trey as well, but
- 9:04Speaker 1: like we're really tight. So when you say Mike, I'm
- 9:07Speaker 1: just like, now, curious guy. So Mike is there was
- 9:10Speaker 1: the virgin from katiec such a sweet guy. But is
- 9:14Speaker 1: he still a virgin? Um? Yeah, yeah he is. He's
- 9:18Speaker 1: he's he's he's still looking for his like perfect right person. Um,
- 9:22Speaker 1: I love him and I'm he's Yeah. We all thought
- 9:27Speaker 1: he was gonna be the Bachelor. Well it was like
- 9:30Speaker 1: right around the time that the Colton thing came out,
- 9:33Speaker 1: So I feel like that may have swayed his Bachelor
- 9:36Speaker 1: campaign a little bit. They're like, oh, not this again,
- 9:39Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So I think that probably
- 9:41Speaker 1: could have happened, you know. So um, but no, we
- 9:44Speaker 1: all thought he was literally front runner. And that's what
- 9:48Speaker 1: Bennett was telling us kind of. He was just like,
- 9:50Speaker 1: real people are gonna love you, and we're like they're
- 9:53Speaker 1: gonna love him. He doesn't. On Paradise, he didn't. He
- 9:56Speaker 1: declined it. He did not want Paradise. Now he's done
- 9:58Speaker 1: with the franchise. Why he was so good? Um, you know,
- 10:01Speaker 1: it just just kind of how I got portrayed. At
- 10:04Speaker 1: the end, he's like I'm more than just like this. Yeah,
- 10:07Speaker 1: I mean we all feel that on the show and
- 10:10Speaker 1: Holy Ship, and I think it was like the cuddling
- 10:13Speaker 1: Mom scene that was like he's like, come on, like really,
- 10:17Speaker 1: like that's not how I how it was said. And
- 10:19Speaker 1: I was like, I I called him before the show
- 10:21Speaker 1: because he's West Coast. I'm like, bro, don't watch to
- 10:26Speaker 1: remind our audience. He said something about the long lines
- 10:28Speaker 1: of like I can't wait, you're reminded me of my
- 10:30Speaker 1: mom I cuddle with something like that. Yeah. Now he's
- 10:34Speaker 1: just he's so much. I'm telling you, this dude is
- 10:37Speaker 1: kind of a jerk honestly in a way, like he's
- 10:41Speaker 1: got an edge. He's not this like cookie cutter like guy.
- 10:45Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, he's a Christian, really guily man, and
- 10:47Speaker 1: I think we're all pretty god fearing, but he's actually
- 10:50Speaker 1: like super funny. He's throwing out jokes, throwing out jabs
- 10:53Speaker 1: all the time, like, and we bring him to the club,
- 10:56Speaker 1: so like when we go out, I will say, I've
- 10:58Speaker 1: net like I respect a lot about him, but you know,
- 11:02Speaker 1: we're not a huge, huge party guys. Like when we
- 11:04Speaker 1: do go out and have a good time, I mean,
- 11:06Speaker 1: he doesn't drink, and he he will. And the thing is,
- 11:08Speaker 1: it's not like he's just standing a wallflower, right. He
- 11:11Speaker 1: will have conversations. He will dance completely sober, and I'm like, dude,
- 11:15Speaker 1: like this is gonna be tough and stay until two
- 11:18Speaker 1: or three Am'll be up there. We'll have chats about
- 11:22Speaker 1: it in the morning, and he's just like I'll remember this.
- 11:24Speaker 1: I'm like, dude, why do you act like you were
- 11:27Speaker 1: you were like in the mix with us you weren't
- 11:29Speaker 1: And they were like he was in the mix. He
- 11:31Speaker 1: really wasn't there. You don't you don't notice that he's
- 11:35Speaker 1: you know, not because he's fun like people think he's
- 11:36Speaker 1: just like this virgin doesn't drink like and I'm like, no,
- 11:39Speaker 1: he's such a good time. He has all those things,
- 11:42Speaker 1: but he's so much more. Yeah, we that love that. Okay, Well,
- 11:46Speaker 1: I want to go more into why the two of
- 11:48Speaker 1: you were never the Bachelor because we know that you
- 11:51Speaker 1: were in the running. But we're gonna do that during
- 11:53Speaker 1: your in depth episodes. We're gonna take a quick break
- 11:57Speaker 1: right now and then go into Bachelor headlines and you're
- 11:59Speaker 1: gonna help me break him down. Really, I'm going to
- 12:02Speaker 1: tell you what they are and then you're gonna give
- 12:04Speaker 1: me your feedback. Okay, and we are back. The first
- 12:19Speaker 1: headline is about Chris Harrison. Chris Harrison has a new
- 12:23Speaker 1: I Heart podcast coming out from the mastermind of our
- 12:26Speaker 1: own podcast, Amy Sugarman Um. It's the first time that
- 12:30Speaker 1: he's talking about the controversy of almost two years ago. Um.
- 12:35Speaker 1: In this trailer, he says, every day he thinks about that.
- 12:41Speaker 1: So this is the The preview came out yesterday and
- 12:45Speaker 1: this is the quote. I'm a little nervous. I have
- 12:50Speaker 1: not spoken publicly for two years about this, and I
- 12:53Speaker 1: have a lot of thoughts. I think about this every day, truly,
- 12:56Speaker 1: every day in my life, I think about this and
- 12:58Speaker 1: what I want to set. The podcast is called the
- 13:02Speaker 1: most dramatic podcast ever with Chris Harrison. Um. He says
- 13:06Speaker 1: he knows how important it is that he speaks to
- 13:08Speaker 1: everyone for the first time. It's so heavy, really heavy.
- 13:11Speaker 1: We'll see how it goes. We may scrap this whole thing.
- 13:14Speaker 1: To be honest, I don't know, but I think it
- 13:16Speaker 1: will be cathartic. I'm going I'm looking forward to getting
- 13:20Speaker 1: this off my shoulders and repairing this moving forward and
- 13:22Speaker 1: letting everyone hear from me. Now that's his quote, and
- 13:26Speaker 1: now the description that I heard gives is fans can
- 13:30Speaker 1: expect to hear from Chris open up like he never
- 13:34Speaker 1: has before, using his unparalleled expertise. He will dig into
- 13:39Speaker 1: all things relationships every week. Fans will no longer just
- 13:44Speaker 1: be going along for the ride. They'll be up close
- 13:47Speaker 1: and personal with Chris as he navigates through dating, marriage, love, loss,
- 13:51Speaker 1: and more. And for the first time ever, Chris will
- 13:53Speaker 1: discuss everything. There's no telling what he's going to say. So,
- 13:58Speaker 1: you guys are from the first generation of people who
- 14:00Speaker 1: didn't have Chris as the host of their yeah, of
- 14:03Speaker 1: their of their show. So do you have any feelings
- 14:07Speaker 1: on this, Like, I'm very excited to hear like his
- 14:09Speaker 1: on really good you know, Like I know that he
- 14:12Speaker 1: did an interview, he did an interview with ABC, but
- 14:15Speaker 1: that was before he was taking off the show. So
- 14:18Speaker 1: I'm just excited for him to Like, I'm just excited
- 14:21Speaker 1: to hear what he has to say, like two years removed. Yeah,
- 14:24Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like we're like the most unlike
- 14:29Speaker 1: people to talk about because we didn't meet him. You know,
- 14:31Speaker 1: I don't I don't know who he is. We were
- 14:33Speaker 1: the first season to not have him, so I can
- 14:36Speaker 1: only speak in experience of like, um, what we kind
- 14:39Speaker 1: of like missed out on, just like the whole like
- 14:42Speaker 1: you know Chris Harrison effect. I don't know what that is,
- 14:44Speaker 1: and everyone talks about it. Um, you know, I'd be
- 14:46Speaker 1: very interested to hear what he has to say. Obviously
- 14:49Speaker 1: there's are like really pressing matters and what you know,
- 14:51Speaker 1: in two years a long time. Um, But at the
- 14:54Speaker 1: end of the day, like I just hope that you know,
- 14:56Speaker 1: he understands what he's dead, what he's done, and what
- 14:58Speaker 1: he said and how affected some people, and I hope
- 15:01Speaker 1: we all can move on. Like it's it's not the
- 15:03Speaker 1: end of the world to me. Um, you know, I
- 15:05Speaker 1: think we will get into this realm where we want
- 15:07Speaker 1: to punish people like pass whatever. And I just feel like,
- 15:11Speaker 1: you know, if if he really understands what he said
- 15:14Speaker 1: and why I offended people, and I think we just
- 15:16Speaker 1: move on and you know, let him be him, and um, yeah,
- 15:19Speaker 1: maybe he comes back and host again. I don't know.
- 15:22Speaker 1: I do love Jesse Palmer though, so I don't know.
- 15:24Speaker 1: I love that answer, And yes, Jesse is awesome. He's
- 15:26Speaker 1: a good hang. He's a really sweet, sweet guy. Yeah, yeah, no,
- 15:31Speaker 1: I mean I agree. I think it'll be interesting to
- 15:33Speaker 1: see if it's more of you know, like an ownership
- 15:37Speaker 1: accountability angle or like a justification type of thing. And
- 15:41Speaker 1: I think whichever route it is, will we'll kind of
- 15:44Speaker 1: speak volumes to the situation. You know. I agree. You know,
- 15:46Speaker 1: we're in like this whole cancel I hate cancel culture.
- 15:49Speaker 1: You know, people make mistakes and like nobody's perfect, and
- 15:52Speaker 1: I feel like in our position, it's so easy to
- 15:54Speaker 1: point the finger and expect perfection, you know, when you
- 15:57Speaker 1: were in that light. But we're all humans, we all mistakes,
- 16:00Speaker 1: and so I think it'd be really interesting to see,
- 16:03Speaker 1: you know, like you said, if he it's been two years, right,
- 16:04Speaker 1: and if we can kind of if he reflects and
- 16:06Speaker 1: kind of um, like you said, can you can understand
- 16:09Speaker 1: how he's offended people and and and move on from there.
- 16:11Speaker 1: I think it'll be well received, um, because I remember,
- 16:14Speaker 1: you know, I mean I didn't. We don't know Chris
- 16:16Speaker 1: at all, and so we've heard nothing but great things
- 16:19Speaker 1: from people who have interacted with him. Our only you
- 16:22Speaker 1: know is right is seeing that and it's like, how
- 16:26Speaker 1: could he be so tone deaf? You know? But then
- 16:29Speaker 1: it's like, as you guys weren't fans of the show prior,
- 16:31Speaker 1: Like we were talking about this in the car on
- 16:33Speaker 1: their way here. They have like no Bachelor history other
- 16:36Speaker 1: than they're out. None. Only time I really saw it
- 16:40Speaker 1: was the only time I saw it was when my
- 16:42Speaker 1: cousin Clay was on the show. So I was like, oh, well,
- 16:44Speaker 1: I'll watch it here and then but then soon as
- 16:46Speaker 1: you got eliminated, which was very early, every time you
- 16:53Speaker 1: get further, pretty much guy god plays in the NFL
- 17:01Speaker 1: ten years get hurt? Played football? Are you kidding me?
- 17:04Speaker 1: We shamed him in the family. You can't come home.
- 17:13Speaker 1: That's so funny. All right, Well, thank you guys for
- 17:15Speaker 1: your feedback on that. Now we'll talk about one of
- 17:17Speaker 1: your friends, Michael Alio. He is talking again about how
- 17:22Speaker 1: he dealt with the situation with Sarah Jackson. Um that breakup.
- 17:27Speaker 1: He was on the Right Reasons podcast that's US Weekly's
- 17:30Speaker 1: Bachelor podcast. He says that, um, what I tried to
- 17:34Speaker 1: do with Sierra was let her know the second I
- 17:35Speaker 1: realized that it just wasn't there, and at the time, um,
- 17:39Speaker 1: when she had the rose where she could make the decision,
- 17:43Speaker 1: and I would do that all over again. Where I
- 17:45Speaker 1: really tripped up, UM was not being able to explain
- 17:49Speaker 1: myself in a way that she deserves, you know, letting
- 17:52Speaker 1: her know that she just wasn't the right person for me.
- 17:56Speaker 1: And I should have ended it really like that. And
- 17:59Speaker 1: so for that, I apologize, and I apologize to her
- 18:02Speaker 1: at the reunion, and I wish her the best and
- 18:03Speaker 1: I know that she'll find love. She actually has a
- 18:05Speaker 1: boyfriend right now. She's a really great person, and Danielle
- 18:11Speaker 1: and him are really focused on themselves right now. Do
- 18:13Speaker 1: you think that it's like time to I mean, I
- 18:15Speaker 1: guess whenever you guys hit the podcast, you know we're
- 18:18Speaker 1: going to bring up the stuff from the summer. But yeah,
- 18:21Speaker 1: this is this has been like haunting him a little bit. Huh. Yeah,
- 18:24Speaker 1: I mean it's following him, but like it's it's there's
- 18:27Speaker 1: no reason to that that it should be following It's
- 18:29Speaker 1: honestly not as serious of a situation to me. I think, Um,
- 18:33Speaker 1: I think Sierra and Mike are incredible people. Um, and
- 18:37Speaker 1: when like when it happened, you know, obviously when we
- 18:40Speaker 1: were on the beach, Um, you know it was sad.
- 18:43Speaker 1: I I saw how much like Sierra put into like
- 18:46Speaker 1: trying to make things work with Mike. But also like
- 18:48Speaker 1: we knew, we knew, So why did you know where
- 18:52Speaker 1: it was he saying things or you know him so good?
- 18:55Speaker 1: That's like, well, they were like he's like to have
- 18:57Speaker 1: this incredible attraction towards her, you know what I mean,
- 19:00Speaker 1: But she's beautiful, and he's like, well, it's just something's
- 19:05Speaker 1: kind of missing. And then like she's removing a little
- 19:08Speaker 1: too fast on top of that, and he just really
- 19:10Speaker 1: couldn't articulate what he really wanted to say. Um, And
- 19:13Speaker 1: like I I even told him, I was like, I
- 19:15Speaker 1: knew what you were trying to say. I think you
- 19:17Speaker 1: were trying to be so nice and try to be
- 19:19Speaker 1: gentle as possible that you might have said the wrong words.
- 19:22Speaker 1: And then you staying makes it look a lot worse
- 19:24Speaker 1: because that's not how you wanted to come off. But um,
- 19:27Speaker 1: it's really hard like navigating as a as a male
- 19:32Speaker 1: on Bachelor, because every word you say is like being
- 19:35Speaker 1: like highly like listen to and you have to really
- 19:37Speaker 1: articulate yourself and say the right I'm not jealous of you. Yeah,
- 19:41Speaker 1: it's it's it's so it's so it's so tough, you know,
- 19:45Speaker 1: and you know, I think Mike is an extraordinary guy.
- 19:49Speaker 1: I mean listening to him talk, he was like our mentor,
- 19:52Speaker 1: like he was just he was so good for us.
- 19:54Speaker 1: UM and I just know one th percent that's not
- 19:57Speaker 1: any intentions that he had was to you know, do
- 20:00Speaker 1: her and he had no idea Danielle was coming. I
- 20:02Speaker 1: will promise you that. And they really didn't do anything
- 20:05Speaker 1: but friendly d M. Yeah, no, no, it's and that's
- 20:08Speaker 1: what everyone does in this show. Like you friendly DM
- 20:10Speaker 1: and you say, hey, maybe I could be interested in
- 20:12Speaker 1: that person. That's kind of how it works. Just any thoughts, Yeah,
- 20:17Speaker 1: I mean, my my take on the situation was that
- 20:21Speaker 1: UM and talking to him about, you know, the relationship
- 20:24Speaker 1: with Sierra. You mean, he was super indoer um and
- 20:27Speaker 1: Sierra is a phenomenal woman. Um. My takeaway was that
- 20:33Speaker 1: he felt like it was maybe like a little bit
- 20:36Speaker 1: too much too soon in terms of you know, and again,
- 20:39Speaker 1: I wasn't in the relationships. I'm only going off of
- 20:41Speaker 1: kind of what I heard from him. This all happened
- 20:43Speaker 1: on my day set. Yeah, this is so we're That's
- 20:45Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's it's still earlier on And I
- 20:47Speaker 1: think he was a little a little alarm that maybe,
- 20:52Speaker 1: you know, she was starting to picture and there's two sides,
- 20:55Speaker 1: so that she was starting to picture herself, you know,
- 20:58Speaker 1: in their lives as you know, like a stepmother to James, right.
- 21:01Speaker 1: And I think that kind of scared him a little
- 21:03Speaker 1: because he's like, whoa Like you know. What he said
- 21:04Speaker 1: to me is like I'm looking I don't you know,
- 21:06Speaker 1: I don't not looking for somebody to replace Laura, because
- 21:08Speaker 1: nobody ever will. I'm looking for somebody to compliment me
- 21:10Speaker 1: in my life, like this is this is my journey
- 21:12Speaker 1: that I'm trying to find a partner. I'm not trying
- 21:13Speaker 1: to find a new mother for James, right, like he
- 21:15Speaker 1: has a mom. And I think he didn't do a
- 21:17Speaker 1: great job of articulating. Yeah, yeah, I have a good memory,
- 21:24Speaker 1: so I don't think you know, I wasn't there for
- 21:26Speaker 1: the we don't only when I saw aired was you know,
- 21:28Speaker 1: all that I know of the conversation, so I don't
- 21:30Speaker 1: I don't know, but obviously that didn't come across clearly.
- 21:33Speaker 1: I don't think he did a good job of articulating that,
- 21:35Speaker 1: and I think he was trying to be gentle with
- 21:37Speaker 1: it um and it didn't make sense. We knew he
- 21:39Speaker 1: was coming from and it didn't. But but at the
- 21:43Speaker 1: same time, like in Sierra's defense, and again like Michael has,
- 21:47Speaker 1: you know, we talk a lot, I think Sierra had
- 21:51Speaker 1: nothing but good intentions in saying like sometimes I think
- 21:54Speaker 1: you overcompensate and you want I think she wanted and
- 21:57Speaker 1: again I can't speak first, I don't know, but I
- 21:59Speaker 1: feel like perhaps she wanted to give Michael resturns like
- 22:02Speaker 1: I'm ready for this step, like you know, maybe younger,
- 22:04Speaker 1: but like I can do it. I'm ready. And so
- 22:06Speaker 1: she has good intentions, but he's sicking. It's like, well,
- 22:08Speaker 1: like I don't need that right now. So it's just
- 22:10Speaker 1: you know, I also think that timing there was so
- 22:13Speaker 1: sucky because like I think he was about to let
- 22:16Speaker 1: her down and say we have to cool down, and
- 22:18Speaker 1: she was ramping up by getting him stars, which is
- 22:22Speaker 1: so and then he was like, you were like I
- 22:24Speaker 1: think that at the time, he probably in his head
- 22:26Speaker 1: was like, okay, so I could let this moment go
- 22:28Speaker 1: and we can't enjoy this moment, but then I'm gonna
- 22:29Speaker 1: have to break up with her tomorrow and that's gonna
- 22:31Speaker 1: be you know, it's crazy. Sierra was so excited about
- 22:35Speaker 1: the stars were like, oh my god. I'm like, like,
- 22:40Speaker 1: that's the sweetest thing ever heard. Michael was going to
- 22:45Speaker 1: take it. I was like, oh, well no, because we
- 22:48Speaker 1: that you know, did you guys know that we knew
- 22:50Speaker 1: he was about to break up with her and we
- 22:51Speaker 1: knew it was the same time. We were like and
- 22:53Speaker 1: literally we were like we're like, hey, maybe not today,
- 22:55Speaker 1: maybe not today. He was like we were like, Michael,
- 22:57Speaker 1: maybe not today, and he was like, no, I gotta
- 22:59Speaker 1: do it today. Like maybe not today, and he was
- 23:02Speaker 1: like I gotta do it. I'm like, oh my god.
- 23:05Speaker 1: So we knew it was gonna be like we were.
- 23:10Speaker 1: We felt so bad because she asked us off the jump.
- 23:13Speaker 1: She was like, I gotta tell you guys what I'm doing.
- 23:15Speaker 1: I'm planning, and we're like, that is freaking crazy. I know.
- 23:18Speaker 1: I remember having a covers and I was so supportive
- 23:20Speaker 1: of it too. I was like, you are the most
- 23:21Speaker 1: special girl, like like literally like maybe twenty minutes. I
- 23:25Speaker 1: was like, yeah, man, I might have to break up
- 23:27Speaker 1: with it. Like oh wait a minute, So, oh my gosh.
- 23:35Speaker 1: How do you feel about her feeling so played? Do
- 23:39Speaker 1: you think that she was at all? Like, I don't
- 23:42Speaker 1: know she wasn't. It just sucks because you know, he
- 23:47Speaker 1: just had a connection with Daniel Moore. I mean he did.
- 23:49Speaker 1: He did break up with her on a week that
- 23:52Speaker 1: she had the rules. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, Um, yeah, I don't.
- 23:57Speaker 1: I don't think she should feel any any ill world
- 24:00Speaker 1: towards him. I didn't think. I think he did her justice,
- 24:02Speaker 1: you know, with grace, and it wasn't too bad. Here
- 24:16Speaker 1: we have another headline, Becky Kufran and Thomas Jacobs. They
- 24:19Speaker 1: have booked their dream wedding destination. That is the venue.

- 25:09Speaker 1: And we spent a lot of time. We did Batchel
- 25:11Speaker 1: Live on stage with them, so we got really close.
- 25:14Speaker 1: So you'd wake up every day and see them. Um,
- 25:17Speaker 1: I will say I better be invited this question. Are
- 25:21Speaker 1: you guys going to be invited? I mean? And me
- 25:23Speaker 1: and Tommy talk all the time, like um, just like yeah,
- 25:26Speaker 1: he kind of just shares notes with me, Like when
- 25:28Speaker 1: I was in Paradise, you kind of give me a
- 25:29Speaker 1: little hint. It's like, hey, be careful, this is coming up.
- 25:32Speaker 1: I was like, thanks, How weird was it that they
- 25:35Speaker 1: had a cameo in Paradise? And just like what was
- 25:37Speaker 1: barely loved it? But what did they do that we
- 25:39Speaker 1: didn't get to see on TV. I was home at
- 25:41Speaker 1: that point. You were home home? Are you hotel home?
- 25:47Speaker 1: I think I was home home this time. Yeah, oh yeah,
- 25:49Speaker 1: because they had the lines of ready to go to
- 25:51Speaker 1: your front door. I was home twice, but this is
- 25:52Speaker 1: home home, not hotel home. No. Um. They just kind
- 25:58Speaker 1: of just like brought the energy that we need at
- 26:00Speaker 1: think we had just lost Rodney, just lost um. So
- 26:06Speaker 1: the beach was just in shambles. Um. So they came
- 26:10Speaker 1: in there like, hey, we have a group day. We're like, yes,
- 26:12Speaker 1: morale is swinging, and we kept saying morale all the
- 26:15Speaker 1: boys like the morale is low. We need a morale booster.
- 26:17Speaker 1: And then they came in and sure enough he's showing
- 26:20Speaker 1: off his little ring uh. And then honestly they just
- 26:24Speaker 1: kind of danced and had a good time with us
- 26:26Speaker 1: the same like they were around the whole time, the
- 26:28Speaker 1: whole dance. So it was really fun and that party
- 26:31Speaker 1: was special for them last year. That was like a
- 26:33Speaker 1: real solidified yea yeah, yeah, absolutely, I think I think
- 26:36Speaker 1: they need more of that. More group dates like that
- 26:40Speaker 1: was probably more whole group dates, family dates. Yeah, well Paradise,
- 26:45Speaker 1: I think more of that, like it would be so
- 26:47Speaker 1: much fun, Like instead of just like showing on the beach,
- 26:49Speaker 1: you know what, I didn't kind of doing the same
- 26:51Speaker 1: routine thing, um like get everyone out. I feel like
- 26:54Speaker 1: it caused more drama on that one little night. Yeah,
- 26:58Speaker 1: we thought it was like please Andrew, please Andrew, please Andrew,
- 27:03Speaker 1: please night. Oh my god. We'll be getting to that
- 27:05Speaker 1: in the in depth, but we have a few more
- 27:07Speaker 1: headlines to go through. Congratulations to Christian Haggerty, which we
- 27:14Speaker 1: know who we know from being one of the few
