in whatever Staton City, I'm from so and so season
and then I want you to give your relationship status. Katie.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Obviously we know you're very happily engaged to Zach, but
it'd be funny if you just said it.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
So let's go around and starting with Jess.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Hey, guys, I'm just and I'm currently in San Diego, California,
and I am very single unfortunately, and.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
She was very tied to Blake Moins during her season
of Bachelor of Paradise.
Speaker 6 (01:21):
Yes, Katie, Hi, I'm Katie Vigger. I live in Austin,
Texas with my lovely fiance Zach.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
I was on his season.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Obviously.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
It's very much in love, very happy. We're gonna get
married this year at some point. We're not telling people
to date yet.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
But yeah, an elopement, yes, so that's an elopement.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Entail like, can it be immediate family?
Speaker 6 (01:50):
Yeah, I think it can be immediate family, which is
what we're gonna do.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, but yeah, sometimes immediate family.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
These ladies aren't invited.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
No, all right, Jen Perice, how does Bacheloration know you?
Speaker 4 (02:10):
I'm Genevieve Parici. I was from Clayton season.
Speaker 7 (02:13):
I'm in Los Angeles, California now, and I just like Jess,
very very single.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Very very single. All right, So begs the question? Have
they called you for Bachelor in Paradise yet?
Speaker 4 (02:27):
No?
Speaker 3 (02:28):
No, Jess, as Jess as we called.
Speaker 8 (02:31):
No, No, No, I was waiting. I was waiting for Jen.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
No.
Speaker 8 (02:33):
I was waiting for answer. No, Jess, No, I have
not gone anything.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
I see it. I see it coming.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Can I see it coming for you too? Jen?
Speaker 4 (02:45):
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 7 (02:46):
I think I feel like I'm removed from it now, Jess,
I have more faith that she will get the call,
and i'd love.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
To see her again.
Speaker 8 (02:55):
I'm trying to survive each day. I don't I can't
in advance. Would you both, yes, that's the question.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
If you were asked, Jess, you want to go, I feel.
Speaker 8 (03:05):
Like I'm definitely open to it.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
I think the way like the mindset that I had
last time, like I really did not get to experience
it the way I really wanted to. So I feel
like I would like to go a get and experience
it differently. But I'm also at a place where it's
been so long that if it doesn't happen, like I'm
happy to root for everybody else that's like a little
bit more involved.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
So that's a great way to say it. I agree
with you. I think I didn't have the best experience. Obviously.
Speaker 7 (03:34):
I wish there were certain things I wish I could
have done differently. But again, I feel like I am
so far out of it and I would be happy
just watching all the new people.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Yeah, so listen, guys. Last episode, we were talking about
how the New Paradise is apparently produced by a whole
new team. Not one producer that you've ever worked with
would be there again. Does that change your mind in going.
Speaker 8 (03:58):
That's definitely scary. Yeah, it is a little scary because
there are.
Speaker 7 (04:02):
A few faces that I would be like happy to
see that I would feel comfortable with. But at the
same time, it obviously didn't go amazing last time, so
I think it would be nice to see what new
production does.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Katie, this is our this is our Gallantines Valentine's Day episode.
Are you having a Gallantine's Day or is it just
you and Zach for Valentine's Day?
Speaker 6 (04:26):
Well, funny enough, I'll actually be with Jess and a
bunch of girls from our season in Montana, so I'm
actually spending it with all of Zach's ex girlfriends now.
Speaker 8 (04:39):
Planet.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
I was like, I have a lifetime of Valentine's Days
with Zach, So.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I go, I hear that if you guys do that often?
You have these girls get togethers oh all the time.
Speaker 6 (04:51):
When we're like at one destination, we are thinking about
the next time. That's yeah, and it's so fun because
we're all down to travel and we all just love
each other so much.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
That it's perfect, so sweet.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
So Zach said that you had one at your house
and he was planning on being out of the house
that night but then ended up just having a sleepover
with all of you.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
Well, yeah, that's an interesting way to put it, with
you and all of his exes. Yeah, but yeah, yeah,
we had Ariel Daba and.
Speaker 8 (05:25):
Mercedes there.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Gabby was coming in the next day, so she didn't come,
and Jess wasn't able to make it. But yeah, we
did and it was fun. I think Zach he does
the best he can in those situations. But Hi, this
is a core girl group and they're not going anywhere,
so he's got to get comfortable with it all.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Yeah, there is it weird that I think it would
be more comfortable for him to be with like girls
that he has dated, and especially in the in the
Aerial and Gabby situation, like quite close to like actually dated,
not just like it feels like more of an actual
relationship than say, sorry.
Speaker 8 (06:05):
Jess, Jess, I'm taking Katy.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I feel like it would be more awkward for you
to have these girls around him.
Speaker 8 (06:13):
No, not at all.
Speaker 6 (06:15):
I love them all and very secure in my relationship.
I love Zach I love the girls, and you know,
they all had their relationships with him, but I feel
like because of that, we're all kind of trauma bonded
in a way.
Speaker 8 (06:29):
And yeah, unique situation, but no, I'm all for it.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Two thumbs up.
Speaker 6 (06:34):
I think we all the girls respect my relationship with
Zach and vice versa.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Yeah, it's great, sweet, No, that's great.
Speaker 5 (06:42):
That is and a lot of them are in relationships too,
So like, does it make it weird at all?
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Is Gabby still with that like big teddy bear guy?
Speaker 6 (06:50):
Yes, yes, they're very much in love. They're probably going
to get engaged this year. I can I can definitely
feel it too.
Speaker 9 (06:57):
Oh and what about Ariel?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Give us a little update on her because she's always
posting about her single life or like guys hitting on
her and her denying them on Instagram.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (07:17):
I think Ariel she's in a different caliber, I feel like,
and she needs to find a man that really fits
her personality. She's got a lot going on, and I
think it's like traveling and just finding like a good
man that's it, that can support her in everything that
she does. Yeah, so yeah she Yeah, I don't I
(07:42):
don't know how much she would like us to talk
about it, but I know that she is open.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Okay, any possibilities and relationships and men?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Yeah, okay, all right, Well we are in between the
lines there, all right. So we have a few like
fun Would you rather about guys about dating about Valentine's Day?
I saw one that spoke to me, so we'll start
with that one. Would you rather a guy that works
(08:12):
out a lot and talks about it a lot or
a guy that's a big gamer but keeps it quiet.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
What do you mean by gamer, like he plays lots
of video games?
Speaker 6 (08:23):
Oh, I would say the gym guy.
Speaker 8 (08:26):
I would say to the.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Gym guy that talks a lot about working out.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
Yeah, because he's he's healthy, he's motivated, And that's what
I get from that. But when I hear gamer, I
think of couch begema, no drive.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah, that's what.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
Iana, and you can also join and learn a lot
through that in terms of just like healthy eating and
like finding like a workout that you enjoy.
Speaker 8 (08:50):
I feel like you can learn.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
A lot through someone who is very I mean, obviously
there's a good balance, but between the two, I think
that's the better option for me at least.
Speaker 7 (09:00):
And also, I feel like you can do that with them,
you can go to the gym together, all that, but
like gaming, you're just gonna sit on the couch, and
like gaming with.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Your boyfriend not doesn't sound great.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
So the same answer, would you rather date someone who's
always ready to go out but doesn't know how to chill?
Or someone that likes Netflix and chill like too much
and never wants to go.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Out too much?
Speaker 7 (09:22):
Netflix and Chill too much and never go out. I
would choose that, yeah, because I like to I think.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
When we say social events, does that include like getting
dinner and like things like that.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
I don't know that's a good question because I didn't
write the question.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
I love Netflix and chill, but I've been with someone
in the past where he never wanted to do anything,
and I love like watching the sunset, grabbing wine, like
going to restaurants, So I feel like sitting indoors would
drive me crazy. But if we're talking like partying every Friday,
Satura or Sunday, Thursday or whatever, yeah, I would choose
a Netflix and chill for sure.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Oh yeah, I agree with Jess on that one.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Katie, does Zach ever get you roses these days? Or
is that like weird.
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Hey, no, he doesn't get you roses, but he constantly
gets me flowers, like every time three store, well when
they die, he'll always like have a vase ready at flowers,
like frush flowers for me.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
It's the sweetest thing.
Speaker 8 (10:19):
Oh sweet.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
In Canada, he just like had this so.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Oh cute Valentine's Day yet He's like, I know, I
just wanted to pick it up for you, and he
just had this ready.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
It was so cute. That's so cute. That's so cute,
a good manner. Sweet.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
What are some things about Zach that we don't really
know and that we wouldn't pick up from his time
as the Bachelor.
Speaker 6 (10:48):
He's got this great little goofy side that I feel
like people didn't really get to see. And on the
show he did so many good like impersonations and like
impressions of like characters like movies, which I thought was hilarious.
And he's just like he's very organized, probably more clean
and organized than I am at times. And he's just
(11:13):
so sweet and thoughtful and kind. He's always going out
of his way for his friends and making sure they feel,
you know, seen, and he puts a lot into a
lot of relationships and he's just he's like kind of
also like that go to guy that I feel like
his friends go to him for a lot of advice
about relationships and whatnot. Like he's just very vulnerable and sensitive,
(11:35):
which I do think that we saw the vulnerability on
the show, but I think.
Speaker 9 (11:41):
He was more.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
I think he was more.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
Trying to play like, you know, do the right things
and say the right things on national television, which I get.
So I think you didn't really get to see Zach
for who he truly was.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Yeah, well, Jesse, you feel the same way knowing him
in person now, Well, you know because it's.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Yeah, I mean just like from everything Katie has ever
said about him, she just speaks so highly and it's
not even not like just the way that he treats her,
just like how she describes it, Like I just can
tell that they're both good people, especially together.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
So I love it.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Hey, Jen, when was the last time you heard from
Aaron Clancy?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
I met his new girlfriend?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Oh you did?
Speaker 7 (12:31):
Yeah, like you're a year or two ago? Maybe a
year ago, that's the last time. I We just were
at a party in San Diego and they showed up.
We were at the same party and I was talking
to her.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
It was it was fine. She's very sweet. And I
haven't heard from him since I haven't talked to him.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Do you think he's being loyal to her?
Speaker 4 (12:53):
I hope so, I think so, I hope. I hope
for for them truly. So I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
And Jess, when was the last time you talked to Blake?
Speaker 8 (13:02):
Oh? I saw him when he came to Florida for
a bit.
Speaker 5 (13:07):
Like we're like really very good friendly terms, so it's
not like weird or anything. But it's been a while
since we like last messaged, but probably like six months
to a year.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
I don't really know.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Oh wow, Okay, are those guys or I guess specifically
Blake since you're more in touch. Is that a DM
or is that a text type of a relationship.
Speaker 5 (13:29):
Both when he came to town to do something with Rachel,
like I saw him for a bit and we caught
up and then I don't know.
Speaker 8 (13:37):
I mean, I don't think we d have each other ever. Really,
I don't know. I can't remember.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
Like it's not something I would like clock if we did,
but very like friendly terms.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Yeah, all right, we have some bachelor hot seat questions.
We'll go around the We'll go around the table, starting
with Jess, going.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
To Katie and then going to Jim.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
If you could take one bachelor contestant on vacation, where
would you go?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Who would it be?
Speaker 5 (14:12):
And why?
Speaker 3 (14:12):
When?
Speaker 8 (14:14):
Does that to be a guy or could it be anyone?
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Well, because it's fun, let's make it a guy. Fine,
we'll make it a guy for Valentine's Day and a
girl or Valentine's.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
Day, all right.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
For girl, I would do Hannah Brown because I think
she's amazing and just an incredible human from what I've seen,
so I would love to hang out with her and
ask her a bunch of questions and talk about Tarry Slift.
And then for guy, I think I would do like
Tyler Cameron.
Speaker 8 (14:45):
Personally.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Yeah, Katie's Katie's gonna bring Zach as her guy. We're
just gonna, you know, we feel good about that. Who
you bring it as your girl?
Speaker 6 (14:58):
Oh my god, I I don't even think I could
narrow it down, Like that's just such a hard question.
Speaker 8 (15:04):
I'll go with.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
Somebody not from our seasons. I would take my court
girls any day. I would have you guys pick for me.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (15:17):
Honestly, I don't.
Speaker 8 (15:18):
I don't really watch. I didn't really watch, Like.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Yeah you didn't. Yeah, it's okay, we'll let you pass this.
Speaker 8 (15:23):
One about like, what about your favorite from Grand Season?
What about that? I'll take Lutilla?
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Okay, very cool? His front runner or at least that's
what I think.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
Okay for a girl.
Speaker 7 (15:36):
I'm just gonna go with Rachel because we have traveled
together and it was so much fun and I love her.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
You guys don't live together anymore though.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
No we don't know.
Speaker 8 (15:46):
Well, wait, you guys together anymore?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
No we don't.
Speaker 7 (15:50):
Yeah, she's in Studio City now, so she's like twenty
five minutes from me.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Did she just want to live by herself?
Speaker 5 (15:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (15:56):
We both like we're I think just ready to Our
space was too small, and I think you both just
were ready to ye be by ourselves. I still talk
to her all the time, and yeah, we keep in touch.
Guy wise, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
This is a tough one.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
Jesse Palmer, yess way, I'm the only one that had
risky answers.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
I know, I think Tanner is very good looking.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I think for you, Genevieve.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
And couldn't so Tanner and Jess kind of had a
little thing in Paradise, did you guys, Jess there was
a kiss, right, No, we didn't try to think you
didn't kiss.
Speaker 5 (16:41):
No, he was like who I went down to Paradise for.
And then he took out on a date so that
kind of like stopped me from pursuing him a bit.
And then towards the end, like after Blake went home,
we like spent a day together and I was just
like very overwhelmed by everything, and I just didn't really
get to see it through, so I just kind of
like left.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Did you hear about him and Juliana Huff? Julian Huff,
I did hear about that?
Speaker 8 (17:07):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Did you hear about that from like inside sources or
US Weekly?
Speaker 5 (17:12):
I think I just like sawid TikTok, and then like
that was pretty much kind of but is that real? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (17:19):
I bet too. It was a real Yeah with Genevieve.
Do you know more?
Speaker 7 (17:23):
I've met him, like I just in group settings, and yeah,
he did go on a date with her.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
I don't know how many times. That's not my business,
but it was a real date, I believe. So good
for him. He's beautiful, Yeah, he's cool.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
This is a fun question.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
If you could be on a on a season that
wasn't your own, which Bachelor would you want to be on?
Obviously this is weird for Katie, but Katie and Katie
also hasn't really watched the show, but just play along,
got it. I guess like I have to narrow out,
like I was on Christal's this season, so I'll play
this one.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I was on Christmas season, so obviously.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Besides that, I can't even say that I would be
on Nick or Ben seasons because I'm too close to
them friends.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
Wise, it'd be like so so weird.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
I think, like back in the day, if like before
I was friends with Ben, I definitely had like stars
in my eyes with Ben because.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
He was like the perfect Ben, right. But if I
had to choosing well, and choosing now is also weird
because I'm married. Just to answer the freaking question, I
guess it would be Joey. Joey said, yeah, Jess.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
I don't know. I didn't watch a lot.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
I don't think I would choose Joey just because the
girls I've met are all so sweet. But I feel
like all the drama would have scared me a lot,
like it was a lot, so.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I feel, you know, you're looking too into it. We're
talking about not this season. Which guy would which guy
would you most want to see at the Bachelor front steps.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
I don't know my answer, to be honest, there's no
one that like pops in my head.
Speaker 7 (19:01):
Jen me, so honestly, I think Grant is like one
of the most handsome people that I've ever seen.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
So we're gonna, We're gonna go.
Speaker 7 (19:13):
I haven't really watched the season, and I don't know
how it's playing out, but we're gonna go with Grant.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Okay, that's good. Yes, very very attractive Katie.
Speaker 6 (19:22):
I would go which this kind of feels a little weird,
but I would go with Jesse because he's Canadian.
Speaker 8 (19:29):
I was gonna do that.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Jesse is your easy way out guys.
Speaker 8 (19:32):
But also I did have.
Speaker 6 (19:34):
A huge crush on Ben Higgins at one point.
Speaker 8 (19:37):
I will yeah, but knowing him.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Now, like Ben and I could never have anything more
than friendship chemistry, and it like creeps me out to
think about anything else.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Obviously.
Speaker 5 (19:50):
Yeah, I was thinking maybe Ben because he's a Christian,
So I was like, hey, maybe that.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Ben is everything you'd ever want a husband. Like, That's
why you want to take Ben's season.
Speaker 8 (19:59):
Yeah, yeah, that's a good answer.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Yeah, all right, we're gonna get creepy if I start,
like over.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
If you could design your perfect bachelor date, you know,
like bachelor caliber date, what would it be?
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Anyone?
Speaker 7 (20:20):
I would want to go into a helicopter I don't know,
over some I don't know, I don't know where we are.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
But in a helicopter.
Speaker 7 (20:29):
And then oh, I want the helicopter to land on
the yacht like they have that in.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Some of the you know, some of the dates.
Speaker 8 (20:34):
It's going to be entrance on Paradise.
Speaker 4 (20:37):
Imagine on the helicopter.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
That's how they'll get her there.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
Yeah, and then we have a little date.
Speaker 7 (20:43):
We were snorkeling and everything in the ocean, and then
we watched the sunset and then go to like a
little nice dinner okay, and see fireworks the end.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Yeah, that's like a classic bachelor date that you just
never got to live out.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
I never had a one on one ever.
Speaker 8 (20:58):
Wait same, wait, Jed, I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Yeah no, never me neither one.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
No.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Wait in Paradise and Paradise I was.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
I was on a double date.
Speaker 8 (21:10):
No way, Aaron and Okay, that's still a date.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Yeah, but that's not I don't know if that counts.
You never had your own date?
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Wow, I didn't.
Speaker 5 (21:21):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (21:22):
Yeah, in both dates I was on Orbit on The
Bachelor was the two on one, and then.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
In Paradise was the double date.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
I think I was the only one on my season
on Paradise season from start to finish that didn't get
a date.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
You never got a date in Paradise either, So sad. Wow,
you guys are such like memorable characters to never have
had one on one.
Speaker 8 (21:46):
Yeah, that's okay, it's totally okay.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
So what would you have in your dreams?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Jass?
Speaker 5 (21:52):
I think I would do the zoo and or just
like something with animals. I feel like something interactive, just
to like help with my nerves, and I think all
so I love animals, so I would also want.
Speaker 8 (22:02):
To see how he is with animals.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
If he was like weird with them, i'd be like,
you're done. So probably the zoo and then maybe just
like a sunset picnic on the beach.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
That sounds like a date that Blake would have liked
to join you with.
Speaker 8 (22:17):
Yeah, it's too bad he's going to Africa. He's not
going to any zoos.
Speaker 10 (22:26):
Them in Yeah, I was gonna say kind of along
those same lines as just but not the zoo because
I don't really agree with zoos.
Speaker 8 (22:38):
But I would love to like.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
Be in a pen full of puppies.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
And then I would love to go jet skiing because
I love being on the water in the sun. And
then I think nighttime would be like a sill boat, sunset, wine,
dinner music, a little slow dancing.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Yeah, so mine, I guess Jared and I kind of
did in real life.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
I would just amplify at Bachelor style.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
There is the Queen Mary, like the original one is
docked down in Long Beach, California, and I like to
pretend like it's Titanic, Like I would say, take me
to the James Cameron set, but I'm pretty sure they
tore that real thing down, which they basically made a
replica of Titanic, and that would have been the coolest
thing ever. But I think like anything that was as
close to a Titanic like experience except for like the sinking,
(23:32):
but you know the whole romance part, like get me
a rose dress, bring me to like a first class dinner,
but then take me to the third class dance party
at night.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
That would be so much fun.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Love it.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
And then like they'd have him write me a note
that says meet me at the clock and like hand
it to me like that and then we recreate the
flying scene.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Oh my so much.
Speaker 8 (23:52):
That sounds Yeah, I like that one.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
All right, Well, ladies, I think we're gonna wrap this up,
is there? What are your plans on actual Friday for
Valentine's Day? And Valentine's Day is the thirteenth, so like,
if you have plans on those days specifically, let us know.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
My birthday's on Sunday, so that's like the part of
the reason too. But yeah, I know I'm excited. I mean,
I don't have any boys, so I'm excited to be
spending it with all the girls.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
So so, Katie, Jess, do you have any plans for
the Montana weekend?
Speaker 5 (24:26):
Yeah, I'll probably just get dinner and like, I don't know,
I have a little surprise that I'm gonna do.
Speaker 8 (24:31):
So Katie doesn't know.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Oh, I could probably guess what it is?
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Probably what then? Yes, and when we'll hear back.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
I think it's gonna be an interactive slide show or
presentation of some sort no, but I thought.
Speaker 8 (24:49):
About doing that. I do love PowerPoint night. That's like
my favorite thing to do with people.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
But and just like the girls playing games, like she
is the one in the group that always like starts
questions and just like does like interactive games with everybody,
which we absolutely love.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
And she's so cute.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
That's so fun.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
The PowerPoint presentation, we saw the girl Parisa from this season.
She gave him one night one. It was weird then,
but he apparently still likes her. All right. Well, I
hope you guys have the best Gallentine's Day as a group,
and then Jen, you too, and we're hoping that you guys,
both who are single, have a wonderful Valentine's Day next
(25:31):

in whatever Staton City, I'm from so and so season
and then I want you to give your relationship status. Katie.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Obviously we know you're very happily engaged to Zach, but
it'd be funny if you just said it.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
So let's go around and starting with Jess.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Hey, guys, I'm just and I'm currently in San Diego, California,
and I am very single unfortunately, and.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
She was very tied to Blake Moins during her season
of Bachelor of Paradise.
Speaker 6 (01:21):
Yes, Katie, Hi, I'm Katie Vigger. I live in Austin,
Texas with my lovely fiance Zach.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
I was on his season.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Obviously.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
It's very much in love, very happy. We're gonna get
married this year at some point. We're not telling people
to date yet.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
But yeah, an elopement, yes, so that's an elopement.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Entail like, can it be immediate family?
Speaker 6 (01:50):
Yeah, I think it can be immediate family, which is
what we're gonna do.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, but yeah, sometimes immediate family.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
These ladies aren't invited.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
No, all right, Jen Perice, how does Bacheloration know you?
Speaker 4 (02:10):
I'm Genevieve Parici. I was from Clayton season.
Speaker 7 (02:13):
I'm in Los Angeles, California now, and I just like Jess,
very very single.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Very very single. All right, So begs the question? Have
they called you for Bachelor in Paradise yet?
Speaker 4 (02:27):
No?
Speaker 3 (02:28):
No, Jess, as Jess as we called.
Speaker 8 (02:31):
No, No, No, I was waiting. I was waiting for Jen.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
No.
Speaker 8 (02:33):
I was waiting for answer. No, Jess, No, I have
not gone anything.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
I see it. I see it coming.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Can I see it coming for you too? Jen?
Speaker 4 (02:45):
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 7 (02:46):
I think I feel like I'm removed from it now, Jess,
I have more faith that she will get the call,
and i'd love.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
To see her again.
Speaker 8 (02:55):
I'm trying to survive each day. I don't I can't
in advance. Would you both, yes, that's the question.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
If you were asked, Jess, you want to go, I feel.
Speaker 8 (03:05):
Like I'm definitely open to it.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
I think the way like the mindset that I had
last time, like I really did not get to experience
it the way I really wanted to. So I feel
like I would like to go a get and experience
it differently. But I'm also at a place where it's
been so long that if it doesn't happen, like I'm
happy to root for everybody else that's like a little
bit more involved.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
So that's a great way to say it. I agree
with you. I think I didn't have the best experience. Obviously.
Speaker 7 (03:34):
I wish there were certain things I wish I could
have done differently. But again, I feel like I am
so far out of it and I would be happy
just watching all the new people.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Yeah, so listen, guys. Last episode, we were talking about
how the New Paradise is apparently produced by a whole
new team. Not one producer that you've ever worked with
would be there again. Does that change your mind in going.
Speaker 8 (03:58):
That's definitely scary. Yeah, it is a little scary because
there are.
Speaker 7 (04:02):
A few faces that I would be like happy to
see that I would feel comfortable with. But at the
same time, it obviously didn't go amazing last time, so
I think it would be nice to see what new
production does.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Katie, this is our this is our Gallantines Valentine's Day episode.
Are you having a Gallantine's Day or is it just
you and Zach for Valentine's Day?
Speaker 6 (04:26):
Well, funny enough, I'll actually be with Jess and a
bunch of girls from our season in Montana, so I'm
actually spending it with all of Zach's ex girlfriends now.
Speaker 8 (04:39):
Planet.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
I was like, I have a lifetime of Valentine's Days
with Zach, So.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I go, I hear that if you guys do that often?
You have these girls get togethers oh all the time.
Speaker 6 (04:51):
When we're like at one destination, we are thinking about
the next time. That's yeah, and it's so fun because
we're all down to travel and we all just love
each other so much.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
That it's perfect, so sweet.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
So Zach said that you had one at your house
and he was planning on being out of the house
that night but then ended up just having a sleepover
with all of you.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
Well, yeah, that's an interesting way to put it, with
you and all of his exes. Yeah, but yeah, yeah,
we had Ariel Daba and.
Speaker 8 (05:25):
Mercedes there.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Gabby was coming in the next day, so she didn't come,
and Jess wasn't able to make it. But yeah, we
did and it was fun. I think Zach he does
the best he can in those situations. But Hi, this
is a core girl group and they're not going anywhere,
so he's got to get comfortable with it all.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Yeah, there is it weird that I think it would
be more comfortable for him to be with like girls
that he has dated, and especially in the in the
Aerial and Gabby situation, like quite close to like actually dated,
not just like it feels like more of an actual
relationship than say, sorry.
Speaker 8 (06:05):
Jess, Jess, I'm taking Katy.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I feel like it would be more awkward for you
to have these girls around him.
Speaker 8 (06:13):
No, not at all.
Speaker 6 (06:15):
I love them all and very secure in my relationship.
I love Zach I love the girls, and you know,
they all had their relationships with him, but I feel
like because of that, we're all kind of trauma bonded
in a way.
Speaker 8 (06:29):
And yeah, unique situation, but no, I'm all for it.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Two thumbs up.
Speaker 6 (06:34):
I think we all the girls respect my relationship with
Zach and vice versa.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Yeah, it's great, sweet, No, that's great.
Speaker 5 (06:42):
That is and a lot of them are in relationships too,
So like, does it make it weird at all?
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Is Gabby still with that like big teddy bear guy?
Speaker 6 (06:50):
Yes, yes, they're very much in love. They're probably going
to get engaged this year. I can I can definitely
feel it too.
Speaker 9 (06:57):
Oh and what about Ariel?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Give us a little update on her because she's always
posting about her single life or like guys hitting on
her and her denying them on Instagram.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (07:17):
I think Ariel she's in a different caliber, I feel like,
and she needs to find a man that really fits
her personality. She's got a lot going on, and I
think it's like traveling and just finding like a good
man that's it, that can support her in everything that
she does. Yeah, so yeah she Yeah, I don't I
(07:42):
don't know how much she would like us to talk
about it, but I know that she is open.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Okay, any possibilities and relationships and men?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Yeah, okay, all right, Well we are in between the
lines there, all right. So we have a few like
fun Would you rather about guys about dating about Valentine's Day?
I saw one that spoke to me, so we'll start
with that one. Would you rather a guy that works
(08:12):
out a lot and talks about it a lot or
a guy that's a big gamer but keeps it quiet.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
What do you mean by gamer, like he plays lots
of video games?
Speaker 6 (08:23):
Oh, I would say the gym guy.
Speaker 8 (08:26):
I would say to the.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Gym guy that talks a lot about working out.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
Yeah, because he's he's healthy, he's motivated, And that's what
I get from that. But when I hear gamer, I
think of couch begema, no drive.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah, that's what.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
Iana, and you can also join and learn a lot
through that in terms of just like healthy eating and
like finding like a workout that you enjoy.
Speaker 8 (08:50):
I feel like you can learn.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
A lot through someone who is very I mean, obviously
there's a good balance, but between the two, I think
that's the better option for me at least.
Speaker 7 (09:00):
And also, I feel like you can do that with them,
you can go to the gym together, all that, but
like gaming, you're just gonna sit on the couch, and
like gaming with.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Your boyfriend not doesn't sound great.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
So the same answer, would you rather date someone who's
always ready to go out but doesn't know how to chill?
Or someone that likes Netflix and chill like too much
and never wants to go.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Out too much?
Speaker 7 (09:22):
Netflix and Chill too much and never go out. I
would choose that, yeah, because I like to I think.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
When we say social events, does that include like getting
dinner and like things like that.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
I don't know that's a good question because I didn't
write the question.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
I love Netflix and chill, but I've been with someone
in the past where he never wanted to do anything,
and I love like watching the sunset, grabbing wine, like
going to restaurants, So I feel like sitting indoors would
drive me crazy. But if we're talking like partying every Friday,
Satura or Sunday, Thursday or whatever, yeah, I would choose
a Netflix and chill for sure.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Oh yeah, I agree with Jess on that one.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Katie, does Zach ever get you roses these days? Or
is that like weird.
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Hey, no, he doesn't get you roses, but he constantly
gets me flowers, like every time three store, well when
they die, he'll always like have a vase ready at flowers,
like frush flowers for me.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
It's the sweetest thing.
Speaker 8 (10:19):
Oh sweet.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
In Canada, he just like had this so.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Oh cute Valentine's Day yet He's like, I know, I
just wanted to pick it up for you, and he
just had this ready.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
It was so cute. That's so cute. That's so cute,
a good manner. Sweet.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
What are some things about Zach that we don't really
know and that we wouldn't pick up from his time
as the Bachelor.
Speaker 6 (10:48):
He's got this great little goofy side that I feel
like people didn't really get to see. And on the
show he did so many good like impersonations and like
impressions of like characters like movies, which I thought was hilarious.
And he's just like he's very organized, probably more clean
and organized than I am at times. And he's just
(11:13):
so sweet and thoughtful and kind. He's always going out
of his way for his friends and making sure they feel,
you know, seen, and he puts a lot into a
lot of relationships and he's just he's like kind of
also like that go to guy that I feel like
his friends go to him for a lot of advice
about relationships and whatnot. Like he's just very vulnerable and sensitive,
(11:35):
which I do think that we saw the vulnerability on
the show, but I think.
Speaker 9 (11:41):
He was more.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
I think he was more.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
Trying to play like, you know, do the right things
and say the right things on national television, which I get.
So I think you didn't really get to see Zach
for who he truly was.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Yeah, well, Jesse, you feel the same way knowing him
in person now, Well, you know because it's.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Yeah, I mean just like from everything Katie has ever
said about him, she just speaks so highly and it's
not even not like just the way that he treats her,
just like how she describes it, Like I just can
tell that they're both good people, especially together.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
So I love it.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Hey, Jen, when was the last time you heard from
Aaron Clancy?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
I met his new girlfriend?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Oh you did?
Speaker 7 (12:31):
Yeah, like you're a year or two ago? Maybe a
year ago, that's the last time. I We just were
at a party in San Diego and they showed up.
We were at the same party and I was talking
to her.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
It was it was fine. She's very sweet. And I
haven't heard from him since I haven't talked to him.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Do you think he's being loyal to her?
Speaker 4 (12:53):
I hope so, I think so, I hope. I hope
for for them truly. So I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
And Jess, when was the last time you talked to Blake?
Speaker 8 (13:02):
Oh? I saw him when he came to Florida for
a bit.
Speaker 5 (13:07):
Like we're like really very good friendly terms, so it's
not like weird or anything. But it's been a while
since we like last messaged, but probably like six months
to a year.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
I don't really know.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Oh wow, Okay, are those guys or I guess specifically
Blake since you're more in touch. Is that a DM
or is that a text type of a relationship.
Speaker 5 (13:29):
Both when he came to town to do something with Rachel,
like I saw him for a bit and we caught
up and then I don't know.
Speaker 8 (13:37):
I mean, I don't think we d have each other ever. Really,
I don't know. I can't remember.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
Like it's not something I would like clock if we did,
but very like friendly terms.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Yeah, all right, we have some bachelor hot seat questions.
We'll go around the We'll go around the table, starting
with Jess, going.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
To Katie and then going to Jim.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
If you could take one bachelor contestant on vacation, where
would you go?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Who would it be?
Speaker 5 (14:12):
And why?
Speaker 3 (14:12):
When?
Speaker 8 (14:14):
Does that to be a guy or could it be anyone?
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Well, because it's fun, let's make it a guy. Fine,
we'll make it a guy for Valentine's Day and a
girl or Valentine's.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
Day, all right.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
For girl, I would do Hannah Brown because I think
she's amazing and just an incredible human from what I've seen,
so I would love to hang out with her and
ask her a bunch of questions and talk about Tarry Slift.
And then for guy, I think I would do like
Tyler Cameron.
Speaker 8 (14:45):
Personally.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Yeah, Katie's Katie's gonna bring Zach as her guy. We're
just gonna, you know, we feel good about that. Who
you bring it as your girl?
Speaker 6 (14:58):
Oh my god, I I don't even think I could
narrow it down, Like that's just such a hard question.
Speaker 8 (15:04):
I'll go with.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
Somebody not from our seasons. I would take my court
girls any day. I would have you guys pick for me.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (15:17):
Honestly, I don't.
Speaker 8 (15:18):
I don't really watch. I didn't really watch, Like.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Yeah you didn't. Yeah, it's okay, we'll let you pass this.
Speaker 8 (15:23):
One about like, what about your favorite from Grand Season?
What about that? I'll take Lutilla?
Speaker 3 (15:27):

together and it was so much fun and I love her.
Speaker 3 (15:43):

five minutes from me.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Did she just want to live by herself?
Speaker 5 (15:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (15:56):
We both like we're I think just ready to Our
space was too small, and I think you both just
were ready to ye be by ourselves. I still talk
to her all the time, and yeah, we keep in touch.
Guy wise, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
This is a tough one.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
Jesse Palmer, yess way, I'm the only one that had
risky answers.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
I know, I think Tanner is very good looking.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I think for you, Genevieve.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
And couldn't so Tanner and Jess kind of had a
little thing in Paradise, did you guys, Jess there was
a kiss, right, No, we didn't try to think you
didn't kiss.
Speaker 5 (16:41):
No, he was like who I went down to Paradise for.
And then he took out on a date so that
kind of like stopped me from pursuing him a bit.
And then towards the end, like after Blake went home,
we like spent a day together and I was just
like very overwhelmed by everything, and I just didn't really
get to see it through, so I just kind of
like left.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Did you hear about him and Juliana Huff? Julian Huff,
I did hear about that?
Speaker 8 (17:07):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Did you hear about that from like inside sources or
US Weekly?
Speaker 5 (17:12):
I think I just like sawid TikTok, and then like
that was pretty much kind of but is that real? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (17:19):
I bet too. It was a real Yeah with Genevieve.
Do you know more?
Speaker 7 (17:23):
I've met him, like I just in group settings, and yeah,
he did go on a date with her.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
I don't know how many times. That's not my business,
but it was a real date, I believe. So good
for him. He's beautiful, Yeah, he's cool.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
This is a fun question.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
If you could be on a on a season that
wasn't your own, which Bachelor would you want to be on?
Obviously this is weird for Katie, but Katie and Katie
also hasn't really watched the show, but just play along,
got it. I guess like I have to narrow out,
like I was on Christal's this season, so I'll play
this one.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I was on Christmas season, so obviously.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Besides that, I can't even say that I would be
on Nick or Ben seasons because I'm too close to
them friends.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
Wise, it'd be like so so weird.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
I think, like back in the day, if like before
I was friends with Ben, I definitely had like stars
in my eyes with Ben because.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
He was like the perfect Ben, right. But if I
had to choosing well, and choosing now is also weird
because I'm married. Just to answer the freaking question, I
guess it would be Joey. Joey said, yeah, Jess.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
I don't know. I didn't watch a lot.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
I don't think I would choose Joey just because the
girls I've met are all so sweet. But I feel
like all the drama would have scared me a lot,
like it was a lot, so.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I feel, you know, you're looking too into it. We're
talking about not this season. Which guy would which guy
would you most want to see at the Bachelor front steps.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
I don't know my answer, to be honest, there's no
one that like pops in my head.
Speaker 7 (19:01):
Jen me, so honestly, I think Grant is like one
of the most handsome people that I've ever seen.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
So we're gonna, We're gonna go.
Speaker 7 (19:13):
I haven't really watched the season, and I don't know
how it's playing out, but we're gonna go with Grant.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Okay, that's good. Yes, very very attractive Katie.
Speaker 6 (19:22):
I would go which this kind of feels a little weird,
but I would go with Jesse because he's Canadian.
Speaker 8 (19:29):
I was gonna do that.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Jesse is your easy way out guys.
Speaker 8 (19:32):
But also I did have.
Speaker 6 (19:34):
A huge crush on Ben Higgins at one point.
Speaker 8 (19:37):
I will yeah, but knowing him.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Now, like Ben and I could never have anything more
than friendship chemistry, and it like creeps me out to
think about anything else.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Obviously.
Speaker 5 (19:50):
Yeah, I was thinking maybe Ben because he's a Christian,
So I was like, hey, maybe that.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Ben is everything you'd ever want a husband. Like, That's
why you want to take Ben's season.
Speaker 8 (19:59):
Yeah, yeah, that's a good answer.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Yeah, all right, we're gonna get creepy if I start,
like over.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
If you could design your perfect bachelor date, you know,
like bachelor caliber date, what would it be?
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Anyone?
Speaker 7 (20:20):
I would want to go into a helicopter I don't know,
over some I don't know, I don't know where we are.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
But in a helicopter.
Speaker 7 (20:29):
And then oh, I want the helicopter to land on
the yacht like they have that in.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Some of the you know, some of the dates.
Speaker 8 (20:34):
It's going to be entrance on Paradise.
Speaker 4 (20:37):
Imagine on the helicopter.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
That's how they'll get her there.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
Yeah, and then we have a little date.
Speaker 7 (20:43):
We were snorkeling and everything in the ocean, and then
we watched the sunset and then go to like a
little nice dinner okay, and see fireworks the end.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Yeah, that's like a classic bachelor date that you just
never got to live out.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
I never had a one on one ever.
Speaker 8 (20:58):
Wait same, wait, Jed, I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Yeah no, never me neither one.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
No.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Wait in Paradise and Paradise I was.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
I was on a double date.
Speaker 8 (21:10):
No way, Aaron and Okay, that's still a date.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Yeah, but that's not I don't know if that counts.
You never had your own date?
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Wow, I didn't.
Speaker 5 (21:21):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (21:22):
Yeah, in both dates I was on Orbit on The
Bachelor was the two on one, and then.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
In Paradise was the double date.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
I think I was the only one on my season
on Paradise season from start to finish that didn't get
a date.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
You never got a date in Paradise either, So sad. Wow,
you guys are such like memorable characters to never have
had one on one.
Speaker 8 (21:46):
Yeah, that's okay, it's totally okay.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
So what would you have in your dreams?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Jass?
Speaker 5 (21:52):
I think I would do the zoo and or just
like something with animals. I feel like something interactive, just
to like help with my nerves, and I think all
so I love animals, so I would also want.
Speaker 8 (22:02):
To see how he is with animals.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
If he was like weird with them, i'd be like,
you're done. So probably the zoo and then maybe just
like a sunset picnic on the beach.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
That sounds like a date that Blake would have liked
to join you with.
Speaker 8 (22:17):
Yeah, it's too bad he's going to Africa. He's not
going to any zoos.
Speaker 10 (22:26):
Them in Yeah, I was gonna say kind of along
those same lines as just but not the zoo because
I don't really agree with zoos.
Speaker 8 (22:38):
But I would love to like.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
Be in a pen full of puppies.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
And then I would love to go jet skiing because
I love being on the water in the sun. And
then I think nighttime would be like a sill boat, sunset, wine,
dinner music, a little slow dancing.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Yeah, so mine, I guess Jared and I kind of
did in real life.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
I would just amplify at Bachelor style.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
There is the Queen Mary, like the original one is
docked down in Long Beach, California, and I like to
pretend like it's Titanic, Like I would say, take me
to the James Cameron set, but I'm pretty sure they
tore that real thing down, which they basically made a
replica of Titanic, and that would have been the coolest
thing ever. But I think like anything that was as
close to a Titanic like experience except for like the sinking,
(23:32):
but you know the whole romance part, like get me
a rose dress, bring me to like a first class dinner,
but then take me to the third class dance party
at night.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
That would be so much fun.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Love it.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
And then like they'd have him write me a note
that says meet me at the clock and like hand
it to me like that and then we recreate the
flying scene.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Oh my so much.
Speaker 8 (23:52):
That sounds Yeah, I like that one.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
All right, Well, ladies, I think we're gonna wrap this up,
is there? What are your plans on actual Friday for
Valentine's Day? And Valentine's Day is the thirteenth, so like,
if you have plans on those days specifically, let us know.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
My birthday's on Sunday, so that's like the part of
the reason too. But yeah, I know I'm excited. I mean,
I don't have any boys, so I'm excited to be
spending it with all the girls.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
So so, Katie, Jess, do you have any plans for
the Montana weekend?
Speaker 5 (24:26):
Yeah, I'll probably just get dinner and like, I don't know,
I have a little surprise that I'm gonna do.
Speaker 8 (24:31):
So Katie doesn't know.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Oh, I could probably guess what it is?
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Probably what then? Yes, and when we'll hear back.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
I think it's gonna be an interactive slide show or
presentation of some sort no, but I thought.
Speaker 8 (24:49):
About doing that. I do love PowerPoint night. That's like
my favorite thing to do with people.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
But and just like the girls playing games, like she
is the one in the group that always like starts
questions and just like does like interactive games with everybody,
which we absolutely love.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
And she's so cute.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
That's so fun.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
The PowerPoint presentation, we saw the girl Parisa from this season.
She gave him one night one. It was weird then,
but he apparently still likes her. All right. Well, I
hope you guys have the best Gallentine's Day as a group,
and then Jen, you too, and we're hoping that you guys,
both who are single, have a wonderful Valentine's Day next
(25:31):
year as well.
