• 0:11
  Speaker 2: in which we're going to try to get him to
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: spill some deeds on the rest of the cast.
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: Here we go.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Is there anybody that you just feel like is on
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: the brink of having being the next drama?
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: Anything you can preview for us?
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: Oh, anyone that's on the brink of being the next drama?
• 0:30
  Speaker 4: I mean Brayden like it or not. The guy makes
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: makes really good television, so he might. I think he's
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: always on the custom of causing some stuff just because
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: that's Braiden. But we'll have to see. I have to
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: see how it turns out. But it's paradise. There's always
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: gonna be drama.
• 0:46
  Speaker 5: Are you are you happy you went to Paradise?
• 0:49
  Speaker 6: I mean, right now we see your story kind of
• 0:51
  Speaker 6: like building up to be one of just confusion, chaos, sadness,
• 0:56
  Speaker 6: take some drama.
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: But are now that you look back on it, are
• 1:00
  Speaker 5: you happy you went?
• 1:01
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: I'm really happy I went to Paradise. I mean I
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: met some great friends. I already had these connections built
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: with the guys from Charity season and then meeting some
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: other people from past seasons.
• 1:09
  Speaker 7: The girls were great. I had a really good time.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: I think up into this episode where like we see
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: like the you know argument with Rachel and the Braiden stuff.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: Like I thought Paradise was giving people a little bit
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: more into my personality and like who I am. I
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: got a chance like narrate the story, which was pretty cool.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: But like it sucks watching it back sometimes, like it
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: definitely does, especially with this where I don't think, like
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: like I don't think I said what Braiden was saying.
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: I said, so like when it gets viewed that way,
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: it's a little tough. But overall, I mean I both
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: times I've had amazing experiences. You meet some really cool people,
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: and I'm happy.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: I went okay.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Question about the the truth Box, yeah, And Aaron S's
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: reaction toward it was that the most ridiculous thing you've ever.
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: Seen is he's one of a kind. But he's I
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: love him. He's awesome. He's very direct, He's going to
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: tell you exactly how it feels. And I think at
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: that moment Sam had left. He's got no connection on
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: the speech and he's just like, I'm probably going home,
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: so let me burn down this beach. It was just
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: like threw the box down and just wade all the notes.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: So I was loving it because it was like a
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: little bit of drama off me. At that point, I'm like,
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: get him. I don't want to keep running into interviews
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: and doing stuff like that.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: So that was our guest as well.
• 2:29
  Speaker 6: Yeah, do you think Wells you were there?
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: Do you think Wells was actually mad?
• 2:35
  Speaker 6: Like he looked on television like he was gonna like
• 2:38
  Speaker 6: he was fuming and he was holding everything in.
• 2:42
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I think Wells was.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: I think Wells was probably mad in the moment, but
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: I think watching it back, it makes for like good television,
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: so we probably loved it. But yeah, it was like
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: his thing. He is like saying you fashioned it out
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: at drift Wood like it was his truth box.
• 2:53
  Speaker 7: It was his thing.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: He wanted to do it, and then Aarones comes in
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: just blows it up. I guess so I think it
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: was so bad.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Well Has told us so that you guys complain that
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: his drinks aren't strong enough?
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: Is that the general consensus?
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: So the only thing that I put in that truth
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: box was Wells and needs to stop pouring half shots
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: at tequila. I needed that night. I needed like a
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: full bottle of tequila. Like I was just running around
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: like crazy. I was stressed out, so I was like
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: messing around. But I think his drinks are good. Just
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: depends on what you're what you're looking for in the moment.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: Sometimes they're great for you, and sometimes you're like, all right, man,
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: like let's go like fill this up to the brim.
• 3:30
  Speaker 7: I need it.
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: I need a little bit.
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: There's been a rumor though, and I don't know if
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: it's happened yet, but some somebody on the beach, it
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: was a girl said that Wells's drinks were too strong.
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: Do you know who that would have been?
• 3:45
  Speaker 7: Was it Olivia that was saying that?
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: All right, okay, so Olivia thinks they're too strong, and
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: you're saying they're not strong enough.
• 3:54
  Speaker 8: Yeah, so Ben trust when you were here and Wells
• 3:59
  Speaker 8: was here, he said that Olivia, that he messed with
• 4:03
  Speaker 8: Olivia because he put like just a splash.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: And then like and she'd still complain. And then once.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: He gave her just straight like tonic water or lime
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: water or something no alcohol in it, and.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: She was like, dude, this is way too strong, and.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Then he goes, I got the camera on me while
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: making the drink roll back the footage.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: I didn't put anything in this, you crazy woman.
• 4:27
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I feel like I just lean more into the
• 4:32
  Speaker 6: Hey it's not strong enough camp because on the beach,
• 4:35
  Speaker 6: it just feels like they need to be need to
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: be stronger.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, they keep Tali over there, so he
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: keep Tally.
• 4:42
  Speaker 7: I think it would be better if they were a
• 4:44
  Speaker 7: little bit stronger.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: You might see some more, more more stuff like Aaron
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: s smash in the truth box on it.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, it's just like you sweated out immediately there.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: I never I barely. There are very few times that
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: I ever felt anything there because it's just like it
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: just sprits right out of your pores.
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Just my last question for you is Olivia, Like, give
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: us a description about Olivia knowing her in person, because
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: she's a little scary to me, but she's also very entertaining.
• 5:09
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I think she's she's super entertaining.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: I only like, like I didn't get Olivia at first
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: because like the first time we had we had the
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: interaction was when she's mad at Will for going on
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: a date, And in my mind, I'm like, we just
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: I've been here for like an hour, Like like Chili,
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: he's gonna go on a date?
• 5:24
  Speaker 7: Who cares? In her reaction, I thought was like a
• 5:26
  Speaker 7: little intense for that moment. But she's cool.
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: She like doesn't take herself too seriously at all, Like
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: she can laugh and have a good time. So I've
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: been really enjoying watching her interviews because she's definitely animated.
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: But I wouldn't want to be on her bad side,
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: Like I'm good staying away from her bad side because
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: she might kill me.
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: So I thought she's hilarious because all I've gotten to
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: see is her interviews, and I think she is one
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: of the best commentators.
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: We've ever had on Paradise.
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: You know, the last question about Paradise before we get
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: into now what your life looks like, is we kind
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: of got.
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: Left on a cliffhanger.
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: We see the legs of somebody walking down the beach,
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: We see the rest of you know, you guys who
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: aren't with somebody kind of get excited about this. Can
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: you give us a tease for what we can expect
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: next next episode? And and then we'll get into your
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: life now.
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, next episode, it's gonna be It's it's gonna be fun.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: At that moment in Paradise, I was pretty defeated, Like there.
• 6:29
  Speaker 7: Was no no hope I had. I was going home.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: So to have someone come down to the beach just
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: a new person, Yeah, it's gonna be. I think you're
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: gonna see a lot of the guys that were thought
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: they're going home now have a have a lifeline.
• 6:42
  Speaker 7: So we'll have to see how it turns out.
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: Well, how many hours left in the evening when she
• 6:58
  Speaker 6: came down, because it feels like it's getting late and
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: the roast ceremonies, you know, pretty soon.
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think there was a lot of time left.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: I think it truly was like I was, I was
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: praying to the Paradise gods. I was like somebody and
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: literally anybody just comes down and toss me a lifeline.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: And so we got we got a little bit of
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: hope going into the ros cemmer, but there's not much
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: time left.
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah, So there was a little bit in in you
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: of hey, I want to get another roads, Like there
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: was a little bit of the oh no, this isn't
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: looking good now, and I would like to be around
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: next week to try to pursue somebody.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: I actually like yeah.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: And like you get into it and like you're having
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: to have a lot of fun. Like the night before
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: sucked obviously, but like I didn't want to leave, like
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: I wanted to be there, Like if that if that
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: person that comes down, is she can be my person?
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: I don't know, but like maybe someone else comes down
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: there my person, so you know that type stuff can
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: happen in Paradise, Like it's been a lot of great
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: couples that have came out of this show.
• 7:53
  Speaker 7: So I didn't want to leave yet.
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: I wanted to have some fun and thankfully we got
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: someone coming down that might might toss me a lifeline.
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: We'll see.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: Mmm, I'm really toorn on whether you're going to stick
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: around or not.
• 8:05
  Speaker 7: Do you want me to stick around? Most people like
• 8:07
  Speaker 7: this guy off the shelf?
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: No, No, you're great TV. I would imagine that, like
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: you'd be the one to save. I think Will's probably
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: going to be out of this And Aaron asked, is
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: going to be out of this?
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: And let's see who else is on the shopping block?

  Speaker 3: What's his name? Peter? Pilot? Peter, he might be on
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: the shopping block. Hmm. Yeah, of course we want to
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: save you. We know you now.
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we'll see Sean. Sean.
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: You mentioned before we started recording that you're currently in Nashville,
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: Tennessee for work conference, and the guys kind of got together.
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: First question about that is what guys came to join
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: you then in Nashville.
• 8:45
  Speaker 7: Yeah, so we had a really good group.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: Warick lives here, so Warrick was here, John b John, Henry, Caleb,
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: the wrestler Za and uh and James.
• 8:55
  Speaker 7: So we had a we had a good crew and
• 8:56
  Speaker 7: we were we had some fun on on Broadway.
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: You went to Broadway.
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: Oh, so you guys are trying to be seen and
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: see you guys you don't go to Yeah, and go
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: to Broadway.
• 9:09
  Speaker 7: Now, I've never been.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: I've never been to Nashville ever, and a lot of
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: the guys on the trip had never been to Nashville,
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: so I think we had to go. Yeah, that is
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: the first time being here, so we had to go
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: have some fun. I love country music, love live music.
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: So we know that you love Taylor very much. I
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: love Taylor, which, by the way, I don't know who
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: I pissed off in the Chirn department, because like, I
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: actually am a Taylor Swift fan, and any chance they
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: got to just like, yeah, they're like not a.
• 9:37
  Speaker 7: Taylor Swift fan, not a Swifteed.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: Doesn't smell good, it doesn't look like.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: Okay, this is hilarious.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: But so we bring up Broadway in Nashville because like,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: I don't know that there's one center in any of
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: America more than that street that the Bachelor fangirls roam wild.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: You don't want that.
• 10:02
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it was it was fun.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: I think I think it's really crazy because they're in
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: that group that we had. Like if I said John
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: Henry to the average person that watched The Bachelorette, They're like,
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: who's that. He's a really big and he's a really
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: good looking dude. He's fun to be around. So you
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: had guys like that and James who didn't necessarily like
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: have as much of a story, and then you had
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: obviously like some other guys here like John b and
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: Za and myself. So like we had a huge group
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: where everyone knows Isa, say six to six and then
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: we're all together. So most of the time it was
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: an interaction where we would be walking down the street
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: and someone would come up and just be like, oh
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: my god, you were on the Bachelorette, and then you're
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: surrounded by.
• 10:41
  Speaker 7: Six guys that are also on the show.
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: So it was fun.
• 10:43
  Speaker 7: Yeah, we had a good time.
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: I bet it was. I bet it was.
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: But the whole point of this is you were there
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: for a work conference, and I think there's a line
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: on Paradise where you talking about that you left your
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: job to go to Paradise, but now you're saying you're
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: back employed. So can we celebrate the fact that you
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: do have a job and how long did it take
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: you to find one after Paradise?
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, I had a job lined up before I
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: left to go to Paradise.
• 11:12
  Speaker 7: So funny story with the whole situation.
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: When I went to the Bachelorette, the company was supportive
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: to a degree of me going.
• 11:18
  Speaker 7: On the show.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: Initially, Yeah, I think they thought I was gonna get
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: sent home like night one or like day two. So
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: I didn't get any phone calls at all the entire
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: time they take your phone. But I got one phone
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: call when I was in New Orleans about to you
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: we're down to the final sixth and I gets from
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: my work they're like, hey, if you don't show up
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: to work on Monday, you're fired. And I was like,
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: I got to see this thing through. And I got
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: sent home like right after that. So I show up
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: to work on.
• 11:44
  Speaker 7: Monday and we're all good, Oh you did.
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we work on Monday and we were good. And
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: then they were so happy to have me back. Went
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: to a Wahu for a president's club trip. Everything's good,
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: and then I kind of went to them again. I'm like,
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: so round two paradise maybe, and they're like, no, you
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: can't do it, like you're either going to be here there.
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: And then ended up leaving and finding a job fortunately,
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: like almost immediately afterwards, so I had something lined up before.
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: I went Okay, okay, so you did leave a job
• 12:14
  Speaker 6: ish to go on paradise, but the fear of you
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: being unemployed when you got home was not there.
• 12:21
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: I I'm in sales and I built like fortunately a
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: pretty good network within this community where like I knew
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: there was opportunities for me to to find something. I
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: was going to leave that one job, and I actually
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: an old coworker had reached out to me who were
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: like best friends now, and she's like, we need you
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: to come and sell for us. So it was it wasn't.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: It wasn't a huge fear I knew. But there'snna be
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: something else out there for me.
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: God, good for you.
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: I'm happy to hear that that makes that that brings
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: peace to my life. I can sleep tonight because.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: I know that's honestly quite stressful when you hear that
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: people lose their job.
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: I just bought a house too, like I before the
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: BATCHL had. I got the keys to my house, like
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: the day before I went to La So I just
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: bought a house, like have a mortgage. So like there
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: was a moment where I'm like, oh, God, like am
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: I gonna not have a job and not be able
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: to pay my mortgage?
• 13:07
  Speaker 7: I just bought this freaking house. So everything's good now great?
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: All right, Well, we're now rooting for you to you know,
• 13:14
