Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hey, everyone, welcome back to Bachelor Happy Hour.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
I'm Joe and I'm Serena, and.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
We are back with a new season of The Bachelor.
We're going to recap episode one, my personal favorite episode,
and then we have the first Impression Rose recipient. Leah
is coming on the podcast, so we're going to talk
to her. We're going to talk to her about the
Goofy card she had and why she decided to throw
away her only powers right right into the fire.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Yeah, we will see and talk to her.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I feel like episode one is one of the more
fun episodes for us to recap and just for people
to watch together and talk about, because there's so many women,
so many looks, entrances, conversations, and it's kind of like
our first taste of how Joey is going to be
as a Bachelor.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yes, yes, I don't. I personally don't agree with first
taste of I guess it's first taste of seeing Joey
as the Bachelor, but I I feel like I feel
like the lead always shines the least on the first episode.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Yeah, I agree with you on that.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
So, like I can see there's so many women that
they're basically having like the same conversation with everyone, And
I find we always say, like midway through the season,
there's always a point where we're like, oh, they are
starting to seem really comfortable as the lead now, or
they're starting to seem more relaxed, and that takes a
little while to get there.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
And I feel like the lead is always on their
best behavior episode one, and then as the season goes on,
you see them kind of like relax, relax and then
like getting fed up and then leading into more of
who they actually really are really into.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yes, and once they have stronger connections, their personalities come
out more because you see how they act when they're
actually comfortable with these people that they have feelings for.
Whereas I feel like I actually feel like Joey seemed
nervous in this episode.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
It makes sense because for him, every it's a first
date with everyone, it's like it's like, no one's really
their best self on a first date. And that's kind
of what episode one is.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Yeah, that's true, all right?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Out of the limos, who stood out to you the most? Okay,
just pick a few, because then I have a few and.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Then well, okay, wait, do you want to chitty chat
about that? Intro foreshadowing clip that the episode started with.
They used to do this, They were doing this on
Golden Bachelor, and now they're doing it on The Bachelor
as well, where they're like showing a clip from the
season or from the episode at the beginning and then
cutting to the episode like they did like a whole
like two months earlier, three months earlier.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Thing. Yeah, I mean, my my personal opinion is it
was a little too long. You were like, oh, this
doesn't end with a happy ending.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Well, I feel like that's how the clip looks. It
looks like it doesn't end on a happy ending. Or
that's him after breaking up with someone, and like we're
starting off with Joey sweating and crying.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Oh, here a few on the pedestal, he's walking away.
It's dark.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
If you want to place a wager, I'm going to
say that it ends with a happy ending.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
You think, Yeah, what's your definition of a happy ending?
He's with someone?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Yeah, well, for this show, yes, I would say he's
with someone.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Hmmm.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I don't know what I think yet. I don't know,
I I yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
All right, let's pull up. Okay, so out of the limo,
who do you.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Like, okay, I like, you want me just to name
off some names.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Just like a few that stood out to you.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
So standouts, We've got Lexi, who is og from Toronto.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
She had like some of her only commercials leading up
to the show.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah, and she's first girl on the Shes always a good.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Sign, Yeah, always a good sign, very beautiful, seems like
she's got a story to share, and she seems nervous,
but I have a feeling she's going to be around
for a bit. Maria is an obvious standout. I'm sure
we're going talking about her more coming out of the limo.
She's got like a super cool dress on confidence. She's very,
very confident.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
You said that when we watched it. She was the
first girl that you're like, she's confident, and being confident
out of that limo is massive.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Totally.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
You're almost guaranteed to stick around night one.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Yes, And I think it's hard, like some of the
intros get so gimmicky and the person can get like
lost in the gimmick of it all. So even if
you deliver it confidently, it doesn't necessarily show you or
have like your personality shine through. Whereas with her she
had like a cute little Canadian flag and this is
this is my opinion of Maria, and just like people
(04:45):
in general that come out very confident, the lead has
to carry so much that first night. They have to
carry so many conversations, like first conversations, intros. It's a
lot of awkward interactions for her to come out of
that Limo.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
I'm basically like, take charge of the situation.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Like I feel like that is a turn on for
the lead, like for Joey to be like I can
just sit back and kind of enjoy this girl. And
I see her personality and she's very confident, and I
don't have to do a lot of like work here.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
I can kind of just enjoy this interaction.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
I agree. I agree.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Autumn she is oh waits Maria and Autumn. We're both
on my list that we picked from the head shots.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Autumn huh yeah, Marian Autumn Autumn okay, interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I liked Autumn. I thought she was cute.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I like, I mean, she was fine. I don't know
if she was a limostand maybe.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Not a Limos standout. Maybe I'm I'm jumping.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Ahead because I remember I remember all the because she
was at the beginning, and I remember the beginning half
all seeming very strong.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Yeah, I would say the first half of Limo entrances
we saw were very strong, and then the second half
there was a couple weird duer ones in there, a
few gimmicky ones, a few more cringey ones.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
I feel like, I mean, what looks to be the standout.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Is Yeah, I mean, have you not fall in love
with her?
Speaker 3 (06:13):
She's like the cutest, sweetest blonde angel ever.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
What is it a Christmas tree?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
She grew up on a freaking Christmas ta and it
doesn't get well Christmas treat farm. It's like so magical,
It's like out of a freaking Hallmark movie.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
She's related to Santa Claus.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
She's so pretty. She's Santa Claus's long lost granddaughter. Yeah,
adore her.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Like if Santa Claus had if Santa Claus was real
and he had relatives, Like, that's what they would be
doing in the States, and.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
That's what they would look like.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah, like yeah, Kelsey, I remembers. Yeah, And I love
her headshot. I think she looks so cute in it.
I was a little thrown off with the voodoo doll thing.
I was like, well, where's this going.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
But there's two Kelsis. There's Kelsey A, which is the
voodoo and then there's Kelsey T, who I also got.
That's who I thought you were.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Got both both great headshots.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
I'm talking about Kelsey A because the voodoo doll things
duke to me because I was like, I don't really
get this, and then you said that it's tied to
her being from New Orleans.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah, you're a Canadian. And there's there's there's literally fifteen Canadians.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I know, I'm obsessed. There's so many Canadians this season.
We lost to Canadian at the end, but that's okay.
We still got a few.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Okay, Well, let's let's talk about the Canadian we lost
at the end because her name is nat Yeah, and
I usually you know, they grocery store. Joe Night One thing.
I've never really had anyone that I was like, oh,
that's next me, Joe.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Well you are kind of an anomaly.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Or situation now, Joe, but I do. I will say
I cannot believe out of everyone that he sent home
Night one, I can't belief he sent her own.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Yeah to everyone listening, the way you felt when Joe
got sent Home one Night one is the way joe
felt when Kna got sent home night one, like literally
the whole episode. She was like, Wow, this girl's so pretty,
like she's from Canada, Like I think this girl's gonna
go far, which she really was a standout considering she
honestly didn't get a lot of screen time.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Well she didn't get a lot of screen time. I
it just she was I mean just based off of
I mean like superficial looks like I thought she was
one of the prettiest girls in the house, which I
was like, I can't believe he something.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah, and she's a professor. Yeah, and she's a Canadian.
She's got a lot, a lot of.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Good things going for her.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Center Home though, Center Home.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
But yeah, Kelsey I like.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
And then Jen Jen was another standout, another very confident,
seems like she's a lot of fun, doesn't seem to
be taking everything like too seriously right out of the gate.
She's kind of just there to get to know Joey
and enjoy the experience, which I love.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
And she's very beautiful.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
And then we have when we we have the sisters,
the sister they also chills, like we see now they
chosen not to tell Joey right away or any of
the women, which was a choice.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
A choice.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know how I would have
done it. I think I probably just would have walked
right and been like, hey, guys.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
We're sisters. Yeah, but they did. They basically ended up
doing that, and Joey.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
When when they talked to Joey, he said.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Like he put it together. I know, well they talked
to him one after the other. If they have the
exact sent story, and they do look alike, but.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Their dynamics great because they're not They're not like playing
it safe and nice with each other.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
They're not like, oh, I just care about your feelings.
I just care about your feelings. They're like, screw you.
I can't believe you kissed him first. The one sister
was literally go fuck yourself.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Well at the end when she when yeah Lauren, when
she had Lauren's yeah, Lauren's going to bring a lot
of the entertainment into.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
That as I'm so excited to see more of her.
And honestly, she crushed the shotgun.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Yeah, yeah, she did the shotgun. And her sister Allison
is great the because she's rubbing it in like she
kissed Joey and was and say it like.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Yeah, and then she had the rose first, she had
the first rows of the night.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
She got the first and other.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Than the first impression rows, yeah, and Lauren got the last.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
I know. So they're they're incredibly entertaining.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
I think, Yeah, it would bug me if I was
with my sister and she kissed him on the first
night and I didn't, I'd be like, well, I actually
you said that you would send So he kissed Alison,
he didn't kiss Lauren, and you were like I would
send Lauren home just to eliminate this right away and
just focus on one.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Say ye, But I instantly regret that because when I
saw him choose Lauren gave Laura, when he gave Lauren
the last impression rose, and he kind of like smirked,
like this is fun, Like there's a lot of entertainment
for selfishly for him.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Yeah, like he can he can mess around with that
a lot. Yeah, and like a fun, playful way.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
That was that out of all the choices Joey made
night one, that was my favorite.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Giving Lauren the last.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yeah, it was great. That was for sure the best choice.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Yeah, and I'm sure having talked to her for like
five minutes. He was like, I'll definitely get a fun
reaction at this girl if I do this.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Yeah, he he made out with a bunch of girls.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
He did.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
He kissed six girls from what we saw, which I
am not against in any way.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
I just wasn't expecting from him.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
I was shocked that he kissed Jess. That was the first,
because that was the first. Wasn't that the first kiss?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Me too? Me too? And not to do with Jess.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
I just their conversation did not feel like it was
leading in that direction, and then all of a sudden
they were making out, and I was like, whoa, I
didn't see this one coming. And it was the first
kiss of the night, so I really wasn't seeing it coming.
I thought, okay, you know later we're going to see
a kiss like it caught me off.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Guard, and she just she's she's given me more like
the girl that gets up you know, who's involved in
a lot of the drama in the house. Yeah, is
you know, getting insecure about her relationship with Joey's freaking
as a bunch of highs and lows. We always see
that that person, and I just I didn't think she
was he to kiss, but she did. He's obviously into her.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Yes, and then she stole him a second time. She
went wait, let's go back. She went back into the
house and she told everyone like right away, like, guys,
I just made out with him.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Which Kathy's at home, fucking.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Kathy's at home screaming at her TV being like Jess
zip it.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Yeah, and so were all the girls in that room.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well that that was just a that's just a dumb move.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Though, her running back in and telling everyone it's different.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
I don't have an issue if she's had Let's say
she's sitting there talking to Looking Star, right, she's having
a conversation with Star and she's like, yeah, my conversation
with Joey went really well. We actually kissed. I don't
have any issue with that. But yeah, no, it's why
are you Why go in a room full of girls
who majority of them haven't even talked to them yet
(13:02):
and say that, because all you're doing is pissing people off.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Yeah, no, it was not the right move. She did
not read the room. But I will say she's such
a big personality and she really is giving like no filter,
open book, and I just feel like that is probably
true to who she is outside this show, and she
hasn't fully adapted to Sometimes what you do outside of
this environment is not going to work inside this environment
(13:25):
aka this Like if you want to run back to
your girlfriends and be like, oh, I just made up
with that guy in the corner of the bar, that's
one thing.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
You can't do it on the bachelo when they're all
dating him too.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
She did, though, she did, and it pissed off Taylor
big time. Who She then cut off her conversation or
cut off Taylor's conversation with Joey for a little extra
time with him, which.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Is just.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Jess has a journey ahead of her and we will
see it unfold. And she immediately dropped the lines like
I'm not trying to be that girl, but I'm not
here to make friends episode one one, Jazz, We're already
getting that line from.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Youal yeah, but that has to happen. Yeah, And then
who who else did he talk to that it seemed
like he was I felt like he was. I felt
like he was in the kelsey A and I felt
like he was really into Daisy.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Yeah he kissed Daisy. He didn't kiss Kelsey.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
He kissed Daisy, and he kissed Jen.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
He did not kiss Jen from what we saw. He
kissed Jess, he kissed Daisy, he kissed Erica, he kissed Lexi,
and then he kissed Leah.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
When he gave her the first impression Rose.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
And Maria, he kissed. Yes, that was a good conversation
because she went in there like I'm not going to
kiss them and then kissed them. Yeah, and you could
tell they could tell their sexual chemistry there. Totally, totally okay,
let's talk about first impression Rose girl Leah. So Leah,
if you guys, if you guys didn't see one of
(14:55):
the after the Rose shows.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
We were there when this happened in person.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
So Leah was chosen. She was sitting in the audience.
He had to choose between two girls. He chose Leah.
She got a card and was told not to open
it until the first episode because she's gonna there's gonna
be an advantage or something. There's something in the card
that's going to potentially give her an advantage. So she
(15:22):
opens the card. Night One in the card is you
get to steal a date from who for whoever. Joey
chose correct.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Right, It's basically a steal a dight card.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
So if someone else gets a one on one date,
she has the power one time to steal the one
on one date, which I think it's like in any week,
any person situation.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
So she cried and she's like, I would hate to
do that to somebody, but realistically, it just it would
you just know, I feel like you have to know
that wouldn't be a good look on you because Joey
did not choose you to go on a date. He
chose this other person, so he why would he? He
wouldn't be happy if if you stole that date.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
No, I would truly feel so pathetic using that, Like
if you were the Bachelor and you picked let's just
you Star again, if you picked Star to go on
a date and I was like, a Star, I'm going
on that date and I show them like here I am,
and you're like, damn, I really am not that into Serena,
Like I really want to go on the date with
Star today, Like that's so embarrassing for me, and like
(16:31):
I get you know, obviously, multiple one on one dates
is not very common and the more time the better
in this situation, but just go on a date when
you get picked to go on a date, and if
you didn't get picked to go on a date, it
means you probably didn't want to go on a date
with you.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah, but would you have thrown away the card?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Honestly, it might have been like anyone else want this?
Look you.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
That's what I think the show should have did. I
think they should have said, Okay, if you don't want it,
whoever speaks up first gets it. And then I think
in writing.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
Well, yeah, because Jess and Taylor, I think I think
it was justin Taylor both said there's a few people
that were like, I would totally take that, and I
would have used it.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
And I think in little writing there should have been
if Joey turns down, you're steal the date card, you
automatically have to pack your bags and go home.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Like if I go I'm going to steal the date
from Star and you go no, then you have.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
To go home because then there there's more there's more
risk for you to then steal Yah.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
You have to be really confident that he likes you
more than he likes the girl he's supposed to take
on a date that day.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
And then if he doesn't send you home.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
That means actually he really likes you, he wants to
go on the name exactly, and then there's then you know, that's.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
A good side.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
So Jesus, they should have called me.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
That would have called me.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
But the thing is, if I was Leah, and let's
say I was like, all right, I'm not going to
use this because I'm not an asshole and I feel
guilty using it. But if someone else wants that, they
can have it. But I would be like, but the
condition is you cannot steal my date. Like if I
give you this card, do what you want with it,
but you can't be taking May one on one date, Yeah,
(18:13):
because that would be shady.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Well do you buy Leah being upset for the reason
that she claimed to be.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
I was really thrown off by how emotional she was,
Like she was crying a lot.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
I think it.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
I would be surprised if one hundred percent of her
tears came from just her feeling bad, because I'm like, well,
what do you feel bad about?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Like you don't have to use this card, and like
that's it.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Like I think there might have been a level of
disappointment of thinking it was going to be something else.
Like maybe she had her hopes up for like what
the card was going to hold, and she was disappointed
to find out that it was kind of like a
backhanded gift. Ye, she was really emotional, So I was
just really thrown off. And I think she must have
at least been considering keeping it because she was having
(19:03):
such a hard time of like what am I going
to do with this? Because if she was like, no,
I'm not using this, or yes, I am using this,
I don't think there would have been so much like
emotion and struggle. Like I think she was genuinely like,
I don't know what I want to do here. I
want to keep this card, but is that going to
suck for me in the long run? Is that the
right decision? So I think there was kind of like
(19:25):
a battle and internal battle happening and a level of
disappointment about what the card said.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Well, we'll ask her because she is coming on. Yeah,
what do you think she's coming on? I completely agree
with what you said. Yeah, that makes total sense, And
I agree. I think it was a little mixture of both.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
So but here's my thing, here's my thing.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
And obviously, like we've never been leads, right, so I
don't know. From experience, I think that at the end
of the night, there's probably five people, three to five
people that they could give the first impression Rose too,
for all different reasons, and I think it often goes
to someone whose actions were very big, like Leah really
(20:06):
did something that showed him like, I'm here for you,
I care.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
About you and your journey. I don't want to interfere
in that.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I also don't want this card for reasons that I
want this to feel like a two way street. I
don't want to be, you know, stepping on people's toes
all these reasons, and she threw the card in the
fire like that's an actual action that he can be like,
you just showed me that you are someone that I
want around.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Here's the first impression Rose.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Whereas I think a lot of the other conversations, though
maybe had a bit more of like a spark or
sexual chemistry, still need time to grow and all that's
there is like a fun conversation or like a hot
makeout at this point, Whereas like Leah's been able to
go like one step further than everyone else to show
like her commitment to him, And I think that's probably
(20:54):
if I'm Joey how I'm justifying it, and it's kind
of like it's like the girls are gonna be Yeah, Okay,
I get it. You know, he's not like roughly any
feathers with the women by giving her the first impression
ros either because they were all there, they're all happy
about her choice.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
You know, they probably would pick her too. Okay, Okay,
that's my opinion.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Yeah, I think I think you're I think.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Who do you think he should have given the first impression?
Rows too? Or who do you think were some of
the women that he.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Should If I was, I would have given the first
You would have given it to that apparently, No, I
would have given it. I would have I would have
probably wanted to give it to the the youngest, the younger.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Sister Alison just you would have done it just to
screw with the older sister.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Though, if I was really into the older sister, If
I was into the older sister more, I would have
saw the way they were.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Definitely would have given it.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I would have given it to the You're.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Such a sick you're such a peco and that is true.
I know you would do that.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Fun They would have been like, Okay, do we have
a backup. It would have been like a claritatione conversation,
be like, so, no, you're gonna end up with that girl,
get out and let's get a new lead in here
because Joe's gone.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Rogue.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
I I from your from how you've just phraised it.
I agree with what you said that that makes sense,
that makes sense. I just I don't know. I just
I guess, I guess it just seemed like I don't
I just didn't really see the chemistry between Leah and Joey. Yeah,
(22:31):
that's it, really really what I'm basing it on. But
I think, but we'll see, we'll see, we'll see if
she's there at the end. Maybe she is. I could
definitely be wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Oh yeah, I mean, look like I think one.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Of the girls. I think one of the girls I
chose from the headshats already gone. Really yeah, I think
I chose I.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
Chose great because I chose Maria and who he made
at with, and I chose Autumn, who I thought he
was going to.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Kiss someone, but he did not.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
I don't remember who.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
I wrote it down. I'll pull it up.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Oh you wrote him down here?
Speaker 2 (23:05):
You picked Lauren and Sam and Sam.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Sam's gone and Lauren is Laurence still there?
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Yeah, Lauren's the older sister.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Well, okay, all right, so Lauren is still there.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Okay, you still got Lauren.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
We get two more picks.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
We do get two more picks each. Was there anyone
that went home that shocked you?
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Well? Yeah, and that was that was the main one.
That was the main one that went home that I
was shocked.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
It was kind of the only one Mamie I thought
was really cute Lane.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
I was actually a little surprised she went home too. Yeah,
because she got a decent amount of airtime.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Chandler was exit interview.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Chandler, Yeah, I felt I fell for it because at
that point she's probably just so exhausted, Just like why.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Just watching them get sent home when the sun comes
up just hits differently.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
How many girls went home? One? That's a lot.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
Ten girls. That's a crazy amount of girls. I wonder
if that makes you feel better, Like, Okay, well I'm
one of ten, so like it's not like I'm one
of three, you know.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Yeah, I think it would make me feel better.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
All right, So do you want to pick? Who are you?
Your two girls?
Speaker 2 (24:17):
My two girls that I picked from the headshots are
Autumn and Maria.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Autumn and Maria. Okay, so we each get two more.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
Can we pick the same or do they have to
be different? Let's try to do different, all right?
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Can you pick? I'll pick, you pick, I'll pick Okay, Daisy, Yeah,
screw you, Daisy.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
Okay, I'm gonna go hmmm, I'm gonna go Kelsey A
damn it.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Okay, that's fine, because then I'm gonna go Lexi.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Okay, Then I'm gonna go Jen.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
J Yeah, okay, yeah, John, you're not going to put
a sister in yours. I already have one.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Oh yeah, sorry you have Lauren. Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
We've talked so much about Lauren and we've just screwed
up twice regarding her in your list. Yeah, okay, Yeah,
there's there's a good there's a some really good girls
in this caste, like some really great personalities, some girls
that'll be really entertaining, and also some girls that I
think have the potential have some really good romantic connections
(25:31):
with Joey.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Like, I'm excited about the cast.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
A lot of Yeah, I could see more most of them,
most of them in Paradise because that's obviously what would happen.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
We didn't see Chris said that much. Who I'm curious
to see more of. She's from She's Canadian, She's Canadian.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
My mom told me that I was pronouncing abbot's ford wrong.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
We were saying abbots for word, but it's abbots barred.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Any anything else big that we missed throughout the episode, No, I.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Think we cover most of it.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
The only thing we had Evelyn really freaking out at
the end of the Rose ceremony.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Yeah, that was an early freak out moment. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
I feel like there's always one person night, one that
that is really.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I'm just looking at We covered the jet Yeah, I
think I think he we do see in like the
super teaser for the season. I think he is really
into Kelsey.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
I you know who I feel like we saw on
the super teaser too, was Rachel, who is from Hawaii,
and she did like the lay entrance, Like she came
in and we both thought she was going to make
a sex joke and she just was sweet and gave
him the lay.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Yeah. Yeah, she seemed and she was also somebody who's
extremely confident.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
She was was very pretty.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Oh oh, let's talk about the the radio chemist.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Why Caitlin.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
It's just a crazy a. It's a crazy job. And
I really liked her. Oh yeah, yeah, I liked her.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I thought you meant like there was an incident with her.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
No, I just I just liked her.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I liked her too. I liked her too.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
And I also think he likes Kelsey t, which we
haven't really covered much on her. You don't really see
her too much. Yeah, but I think he really likes her.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
I agree. There's a lot of great women.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
There's a lot like and I'm glad that they cut
ten right away because truthfully, like there's having so many women,
it's just hard. It's hard to hard to watch and
like keep tracked, like even right now, like we're still
kind of like fumbling over it. And how many is
there now?
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Well? I think there was, Like let's just say, if
there was thirty two, there's probably twenty two.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
Now twenty two that's way more manageable.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Yeah, that is way more manageable for him and for viewers.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Yeah, Okay, before we go, I'll mention a few fashion phaves, Joe,
you could also mention a few fashion in faves, all right, Okay, Honestly,
I didn't take notes on what people were wearing, so
this is truly just from like memory of what stood out.
I liked Alison's dress. I thought it was a great
fit on her, and the baby pink was really cute
(28:14):
with her dark hair. I loved Chris's dress. I just
think she's so stunning. It was like black, sparkly. I
think I had like a train, like it was really
a moment. I'm trying to think of what everyone else.
But Maria's dress was by far, in my opinion, like
the biggest fashion statement, the biggest risk taker with like cutouts.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
It was really cool. I liked it, very edgy, definitely different.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
I feel like we see a lot of like sparkly
gowns night One, which is like literally what I wore too,
and they're beautiful, but hers really stood out. And then
lexi amazing gold gown, so stunning, and then Kitlyn Caitlyn
was another unique fashion choice, like a different silhouette than
what we usually see, and I thought it was really memorable.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
And those are my fashion paves.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
And I will say I do like the way Joey's
dressed the whole season. When we see it in the teaser,
I think he looks good in all his outfits. Liked.
I liked the suit that he had was it didn't
he have like a blue tie on?
Speaker 2 (29:13):
This is so pad But I don't remember.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Yeah, I don't remember either, but I'm pretty sure it
was like a blue tie that I really liked. He
looks good in pink, Yeah, he looks Joey looks Joey
looks good in colors.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Yeah, good for Joey, good for Joey.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
So yeah, I think, Uh, that pretty much covers it.
We are going to be back every single week with
exclusive interviews. We have cast from this season coming on
every week. Make sure you stay tuned to Happy Hours, subscribe,
download DM whatever you feel like doing. We're here.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Thanks for listening, and stay tuned for our interview with
Leah dropping shortly.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
Bye bye
Hey, everyone, welcome back to Bachelor Happy Hour.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
I'm Joe and I'm Serena, and.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
We are back with a new season of The Bachelor.
We're going to recap episode one, my personal favorite episode,
and then we have the first Impression Rose recipient. Leah
is coming on the podcast, so we're going to talk
to her. We're going to talk to her about the
Goofy card she had and why she decided to throw
away her only powers right right into the fire.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Yeah, we will see and talk to her.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I feel like episode one is one of the more
fun episodes for us to recap and just for people
to watch together and talk about, because there's so many women,
so many looks, entrances, conversations, and it's kind of like
our first taste of how Joey is going to be
as a Bachelor.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yes, yes, I don't. I personally don't agree with first
taste of I guess it's first taste of seeing Joey
as the Bachelor, but I I feel like I feel
like the lead always shines the least on the first episode.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Yeah, I agree with you on that.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
So, like I can see there's so many women that
they're basically having like the same conversation with everyone, And
I find we always say, like midway through the season,
there's always a point where we're like, oh, they are
starting to seem really comfortable as the lead now, or
they're starting to seem more relaxed, and that takes a
little while to get there.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
And I feel like the lead is always on their
best behavior episode one, and then as the season goes on,
you see them kind of like relax, relax and then
like getting fed up and then leading into more of
who they actually really are really into.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yes, and once they have stronger connections, their personalities come
out more because you see how they act when they're
actually comfortable with these people that they have feelings for.
Whereas I feel like I actually feel like Joey seemed
nervous in this episode.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
It makes sense because for him, every it's a first
date with everyone, it's like it's like, no one's really
their best self on a first date. And that's kind
of what episode one is.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Yeah, that's true, all right?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Out of the limos, who stood out to you the most? Okay,
just pick a few, because then I have a few and.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Then well, okay, wait, do you want to chitty chat
about that? Intro foreshadowing clip that the episode started with.
They used to do this, They were doing this on
Golden Bachelor, and now they're doing it on The Bachelor
as well, where they're like showing a clip from the
season or from the episode at the beginning and then
cutting to the episode like they did like a whole
like two months earlier, three months earlier.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Thing. Yeah, I mean, my my personal opinion is it
was a little too long. You were like, oh, this
doesn't end with a happy ending.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Well, I feel like that's how the clip looks. It
looks like it doesn't end on a happy ending. Or
that's him after breaking up with someone, and like we're
starting off with Joey sweating and crying.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Oh, here a few on the pedestal, he's walking away.
It's dark.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
If you want to place a wager, I'm going to
say that it ends with a happy ending.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
You think, Yeah, what's your definition of a happy ending?
He's with someone?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Yeah, well, for this show, yes, I would say he's
with someone.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Hmmm.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I don't know what I think yet. I don't know,
I I yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
All right, let's pull up. Okay, so out of the limo,
who do you.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Like, okay, I like, you want me just to name
off some names.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Just like a few that stood out to you.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
So standouts, We've got Lexi, who is og from Toronto.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
She had like some of her only commercials leading up
to the show.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah, and she's first girl on the Shes always a good.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Sign, Yeah, always a good sign, very beautiful, seems like
she's got a story to share, and she seems nervous,
but I have a feeling she's going to be around
for a bit. Maria is an obvious standout. I'm sure
we're going talking about her more coming out of the limo.
She's got like a super cool dress on confidence. She's very,
very confident.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
You said that when we watched it. She was the
first girl that you're like, she's confident, and being confident
out of that limo is massive.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Totally.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
You're almost guaranteed to stick around night one.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Yes, And I think it's hard, like some of the
intros get so gimmicky and the person can get like
lost in the gimmick of it all. So even if
you deliver it confidently, it doesn't necessarily show you or
have like your personality shine through. Whereas with her she
had like a cute little Canadian flag and this is
this is my opinion of Maria, and just like people
(04:45):
in general that come out very confident, the lead has
to carry so much that first night. They have to
carry so many conversations, like first conversations, intros. It's a
lot of awkward interactions for her to come out of
that Limo.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
I'm basically like, take charge of the situation.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Like I feel like that is a turn on for
the lead, like for Joey to be like I can
just sit back and kind of enjoy this girl. And
I see her personality and she's very confident, and I
don't have to do a lot of like work here.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
I can kind of just enjoy this interaction.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
I agree. I agree.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Autumn she is oh waits Maria and Autumn. We're both
on my list that we picked from the head shots.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Autumn huh yeah, Marian Autumn Autumn okay, interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I liked Autumn. I thought she was cute.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I like, I mean, she was fine. I don't know
if she was a limostand maybe.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Not a Limos standout. Maybe I'm I'm jumping.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Ahead because I remember I remember all the because she
was at the beginning, and I remember the beginning half
all seeming very strong.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Yeah, I would say the first half of Limo entrances
we saw were very strong, and then the second half
there was a couple weird duer ones in there, a
few gimmicky ones, a few more cringey ones.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
I feel like, I mean, what looks to be the standout.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Is Yeah, I mean, have you not fall in love
with her?
Speaker 3 (06:13):
She's like the cutest, sweetest blonde angel ever.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
What is it a Christmas tree?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
She grew up on a freaking Christmas ta and it
doesn't get well Christmas treat farm. It's like so magical,
It's like out of a freaking Hallmark movie.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
She's related to Santa Claus.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
She's so pretty. She's Santa Claus's long lost granddaughter. Yeah,
adore her.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Like if Santa Claus had if Santa Claus was real
and he had relatives, Like, that's what they would be
doing in the States, and.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
That's what they would look like.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah, like yeah, Kelsey, I remembers. Yeah, And I love
her headshot. I think she looks so cute in it.
I was a little thrown off with the voodoo doll thing.
I was like, well, where's this going.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
But there's two Kelsis. There's Kelsey A, which is the
voodoo and then there's Kelsey T, who I also got.
That's who I thought you were.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Got both both great headshots.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
I'm talking about Kelsey A because the voodoo doll things
duke to me because I was like, I don't really
get this, and then you said that it's tied to
her being from New Orleans.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah, you're a Canadian. And there's there's there's literally fifteen Canadians.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I know, I'm obsessed. There's so many Canadians this season.
We lost to Canadian at the end, but that's okay.
We still got a few.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Okay, Well, let's let's talk about the Canadian we lost
at the end because her name is nat Yeah, and
I usually you know, they grocery store. Joe Night One thing.
I've never really had anyone that I was like, oh,
that's next me, Joe.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Well you are kind of an anomaly.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Or situation now, Joe, but I do. I will say
I cannot believe out of everyone that he sent home
Night one, I can't belief he sent her own.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Yeah to everyone listening, the way you felt when Joe
got sent Home one Night one is the way joe
felt when Kna got sent home night one, like literally
the whole episode. She was like, Wow, this girl's so pretty,
like she's from Canada, Like I think this girl's gonna
go far, which she really was a standout considering she
honestly didn't get a lot of screen time.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Well she didn't get a lot of screen time. I
it just she was I mean just based off of
I mean like superficial looks like I thought she was
one of the prettiest girls in the house, which I
was like, I can't believe he something.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah, and she's a professor. Yeah, and she's a Canadian.
She's got a lot, a lot of.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Good things going for her.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Center Home though, Center Home.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
But yeah, Kelsey I like.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
And then Jen Jen was another standout, another very confident,
seems like she's a lot of fun, doesn't seem to
be taking everything like too seriously right out of the gate.
She's kind of just there to get to know Joey
and enjoy the experience, which I love.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
And she's very beautiful.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
And then we have when we we have the sisters,
the sister they also chills, like we see now they
chosen not to tell Joey right away or any of
the women, which was a choice.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
A choice.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know how I would have
done it. I think I probably just would have walked
right and been like, hey, guys.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
We're sisters. Yeah, but they did. They basically ended up
doing that, and Joey.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
When when they talked to Joey, he said.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Like he put it together. I know, well they talked
to him one after the other. If they have the
exact sent story, and they do look alike, but.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Their dynamics great because they're not They're not like playing
it safe and nice with each other.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
They're not like, oh, I just care about your feelings.
I just care about your feelings. They're like, screw you.
I can't believe you kissed him first. The one sister
was literally go fuck yourself.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Well at the end when she when yeah Lauren, when
she had Lauren's yeah, Lauren's going to bring a lot
of the entertainment into.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
That as I'm so excited to see more of her.
And honestly, she crushed the shotgun.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Yeah, yeah, she did the shotgun. And her sister Allison
is great the because she's rubbing it in like she
kissed Joey and was and say it like.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Yeah, and then she had the rose first, she had
the first rows of the night.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
She got the first and other.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Than the first impression rows, yeah, and Lauren got the last.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
I know. So they're they're incredibly entertaining.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
I think, Yeah, it would bug me if I was
with my sister and she kissed him on the first
night and I didn't, I'd be like, well, I actually
you said that you would send So he kissed Alison,
he didn't kiss Lauren, and you were like I would
send Lauren home just to eliminate this right away and
just focus on one.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Say ye, But I instantly regret that because when I
saw him choose Lauren gave Laura, when he gave Lauren
the last impression rose, and he kind of like smirked,
like this is fun, Like there's a lot of entertainment
for selfishly for him.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Yeah, like he can he can mess around with that
a lot. Yeah, and like a fun, playful way.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
That was that out of all the choices Joey made
night one, that was my favorite.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Giving Lauren the last.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yeah, it was great. That was for sure the best choice.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Yeah, and I'm sure having talked to her for like
five minutes. He was like, I'll definitely get a fun
reaction at this girl if I do this.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Yeah, he he made out with a bunch of girls.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
He did.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
He kissed six girls from what we saw, which I
am not against in any way.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
I just wasn't expecting from him.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
I was shocked that he kissed Jess. That was the first,
because that was the first. Wasn't that the first kiss?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Me too? Me too? And not to do with Jess.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
I just their conversation did not feel like it was
leading in that direction, and then all of a sudden
they were making out, and I was like, whoa, I
didn't see this one coming. And it was the first
kiss of the night, so I really wasn't seeing it coming.
I thought, okay, you know later we're going to see
a kiss like it caught me off.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Guard, and she just she's she's given me more like
the girl that gets up you know, who's involved in
a lot of the drama in the house. Yeah, is
you know, getting insecure about her relationship with Joey's freaking
as a bunch of highs and lows. We always see
that that person, and I just I didn't think she
was he to kiss, but she did. He's obviously into her.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Yes, and then she stole him a second time. She
went wait, let's go back. She went back into the
house and she told everyone like right away, like, guys,
I just made out with him.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Which Kathy's at home, fucking.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Kathy's at home screaming at her TV being like Jess
zip it.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Yeah, and so were all the girls in that room.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well that that was just a that's just a dumb move.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Though, her running back in and telling everyone it's different.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
I don't have an issue if she's had Let's say
she's sitting there talking to Looking Star, right, she's having
a conversation with Star and she's like, yeah, my conversation
with Joey went really well. We actually kissed. I don't
have any issue with that. But yeah, no, it's why
are you Why go in a room full of girls
who majority of them haven't even talked to them yet
(13:02):
and say that, because all you're doing is pissing people off.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Yeah, no, it was not the right move. She did
not read the room. But I will say she's such
a big personality and she really is giving like no filter,
open book, and I just feel like that is probably
true to who she is outside this show, and she
hasn't fully adapted to Sometimes what you do outside of
this environment is not going to work inside this environment
(13:25):
aka this Like if you want to run back to
your girlfriends and be like, oh, I just made up
with that guy in the corner of the bar, that's
one thing.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
You can't do it on the bachelo when they're all
dating him too.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
She did, though, she did, and it pissed off Taylor
big time. Who She then cut off her conversation or
cut off Taylor's conversation with Joey for a little extra
time with him, which.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Is just.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Jess has a journey ahead of her and we will
see it unfold. And she immediately dropped the lines like
I'm not trying to be that girl, but I'm not
here to make friends episode one one, Jazz, We're already
getting that line from.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Youal yeah, but that has to happen. Yeah, And then
who who else did he talk to that it seemed
like he was I felt like he was. I felt
like he was in the kelsey A and I felt
like he was really into Daisy.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Yeah he kissed Daisy. He didn't kiss Kelsey.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
He kissed Daisy, and he kissed Jen.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
He did not kiss Jen from what we saw. He
kissed Jess, he kissed Daisy, he kissed Erica, he kissed Lexi,
and then he kissed Leah.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
When he gave her the first impression Rose.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
And Maria, he kissed. Yes, that was a good conversation
because she went in there like I'm not going to
kiss them and then kissed them. Yeah, and you could
tell they could tell their sexual chemistry there. Totally, totally okay,
let's talk about first impression Rose girl Leah. So Leah,
if you guys, if you guys didn't see one of
(14:55):
the after the Rose shows.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
We were there when this happened in person.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
So Leah was chosen. She was sitting in the audience.
He had to choose between two girls. He chose Leah.
She got a card and was told not to open
it until the first episode because she's gonna there's gonna
be an advantage or something. There's something in the card
that's going to potentially give her an advantage. So she
(15:22):
opens the card. Night One in the card is you
get to steal a date from who for whoever. Joey
chose correct.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Right, It's basically a steal a dight card.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
So if someone else gets a one on one date,
she has the power one time to steal the one
on one date, which I think it's like in any week,
any person situation.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
So she cried and she's like, I would hate to
do that to somebody, but realistically, it just it would
you just know, I feel like you have to know
that wouldn't be a good look on you because Joey
did not choose you to go on a date. He
chose this other person, so he why would he? He
wouldn't be happy if if you stole that date.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
No, I would truly feel so pathetic using that, Like
if you were the Bachelor and you picked let's just
you Star again, if you picked Star to go on
a date and I was like, a Star, I'm going
on that date and I show them like here I am,
and you're like, damn, I really am not that into Serena,
Like I really want to go on the date with
Star today, Like that's so embarrassing for me, and like
(16:31):
I get you know, obviously, multiple one on one dates
is not very common and the more time the better
in this situation, but just go on a date when
you get picked to go on a date, and if
you didn't get picked to go on a date, it
means you probably didn't want to go on a date
with you.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah, but would you have thrown away the card?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Honestly, it might have been like anyone else want this?
Look you.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
That's what I think the show should have did. I
think they should have said, Okay, if you don't want it,
whoever speaks up first gets it. And then I think
in writing.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
Well, yeah, because Jess and Taylor, I think I think
it was justin Taylor both said there's a few people
that were like, I would totally take that, and I
would have used it.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
And I think in little writing there should have been
if Joey turns down, you're steal the date card, you
automatically have to pack your bags and go home.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Like if I go I'm going to steal the date
from Star and you go no, then you have.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
To go home because then there there's more there's more
risk for you to then steal Yah.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
You have to be really confident that he likes you
more than he likes the girl he's supposed to take
on a date that day.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
And then if he doesn't send you home.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
That means actually he really likes you, he wants to
go on the name exactly, and then there's then you know, that's.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
A good side.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
So Jesus, they should have called me.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
That would have called me.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
But the thing is, if I was Leah, and let's
say I was like, all right, I'm not going to
use this because I'm not an asshole and I feel
guilty using it. But if someone else wants that, they
can have it. But I would be like, but the
condition is you cannot steal my date. Like if I
give you this card, do what you want with it,
but you can't be taking May one on one date, Yeah,
(18:13):
because that would be shady.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Well do you buy Leah being upset for the reason
that she claimed to be.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
I was really thrown off by how emotional she was,
Like she was crying a lot.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
I think it.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
I would be surprised if one hundred percent of her
tears came from just her feeling bad, because I'm like, well,
what do you feel bad about?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Like you don't have to use this card, and like
that's it.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Like I think there might have been a level of
disappointment of thinking it was going to be something else.
Like maybe she had her hopes up for like what
the card was going to hold, and she was disappointed
to find out that it was kind of like a
backhanded gift. Ye, she was really emotional, So I was
just really thrown off. And I think she must have
at least been considering keeping it because she was having
(19:03):
such a hard time of like what am I going
to do with this? Because if she was like, no,
I'm not using this, or yes, I am using this,
I don't think there would have been so much like
emotion and struggle. Like I think she was genuinely like,
I don't know what I want to do here. I
want to keep this card, but is that going to
suck for me in the long run? Is that the
right decision? So I think there was kind of like
(19:25):
a battle and internal battle happening and a level of
disappointment about what the card said.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Well, we'll ask her because she is coming on. Yeah,
what do you think she's coming on? I completely agree
with what you said. Yeah, that makes total sense, And
I agree. I think it was a little mixture of both.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
So but here's my thing, here's my thing.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
And obviously, like we've never been leads, right, so I
don't know. From experience, I think that at the end
of the night, there's probably five people, three to five
people that they could give the first impression Rose too,
for all different reasons, and I think it often goes
to someone whose actions were very big, like Leah really
(20:06):
did something that showed him like, I'm here for you,
I care.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
About you and your journey. I don't want to interfere
in that.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I also don't want this card for reasons that I
want this to feel like a two way street. I
don't want to be, you know, stepping on people's toes
all these reasons, and she threw the card in the
fire like that's an actual action that he can be like,
you just showed me that you are someone that I
want around.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Here's the first impression Rose.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Whereas I think a lot of the other conversations, though
maybe had a bit more of like a spark or
sexual chemistry, still need time to grow and all that's
there is like a fun conversation or like a hot
makeout at this point, Whereas like Leah's been able to
go like one step further than everyone else to show
like her commitment to him, And I think that's probably
(20:54):
if I'm Joey how I'm justifying it, and it's kind
of like it's like the girls are gonna be Yeah, Okay,
I get it. You know, he's not like roughly any
feathers with the women by giving her the first impression
ros either because they were all there, they're all happy
about her choice.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
You know, they probably would pick her too. Okay, Okay,
that's my opinion.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Yeah, I think I think you're I think.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Who do you think he should have given the first impression?
Rows too? Or who do you think were some of
the women that he.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Should If I was, I would have given the first
You would have given it to that apparently, No, I
would have given it. I would have I would have
probably wanted to give it to the the youngest, the younger.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Sister Alison just you would have done it just to
screw with the older sister.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Though, if I was really into the older sister, If
I was into the older sister more, I would have
saw the way they were.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Definitely would have given it.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I would have given it to the You're.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Such a sick you're such a peco and that is true.
I know you would do that.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Fun They would have been like, Okay, do we have
a backup. It would have been like a claritatione conversation,
be like, so, no, you're gonna end up with that girl,
get out and let's get a new lead in here
because Joe's gone.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Rogue.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
I I from your from how you've just phraised it.
I agree with what you said that that makes sense,
that makes sense. I just I don't know. I just
I guess, I guess it just seemed like I don't
I just didn't really see the chemistry between Leah and Joey. Yeah,
(22:31):
that's it, really really what I'm basing it on. But
I think, but we'll see, we'll see, we'll see if
she's there at the end. Maybe she is. I could
definitely be wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Oh yeah, I mean, look like I think one.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Of the girls. I think one of the girls I
chose from the headshats already gone. Really yeah, I think
I chose I.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
Chose great because I chose Maria and who he made
at with, and I chose Autumn, who I thought he
was going to.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Kiss someone, but he did not.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
I don't remember who.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
I wrote it down. I'll pull it up.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Oh you wrote him down here?
Speaker 2 (23:05):
You picked Lauren and Sam and Sam.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Sam's gone and Lauren is Laurence still there?
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Yeah, Lauren's the older sister.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Well, okay, all right, so Lauren is still there.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Okay, you still got Lauren.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
We get two more picks.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
We do get two more picks each. Was there anyone
that went home that shocked you?
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Well? Yeah, and that was that was the main one.
That was the main one that went home that I
was shocked.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
It was kind of the only one Mamie I thought
was really cute Lane.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
I was actually a little surprised she went home too. Yeah,
because she got a decent amount of airtime.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Chandler was exit interview.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Chandler, Yeah, I felt I fell for it because at
that point she's probably just so exhausted, Just like why.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Just watching them get sent home when the sun comes
up just hits differently.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
How many girls went home? One? That's a lot.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
Ten girls. That's a crazy amount of girls. I wonder
if that makes you feel better, Like, Okay, well I'm
one of ten, so like it's not like I'm one
of three, you know.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Yeah, I think it would make me feel better.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
All right, So do you want to pick? Who are you?
Your two girls?
Speaker 2 (24:17):
My two girls that I picked from the headshots are
Autumn and Maria.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Autumn and Maria. Okay, so we each get two more.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
Can we pick the same or do they have to
be different? Let's try to do different, all right?
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Can you pick? I'll pick, you pick, I'll pick Okay, Daisy, Yeah,
screw you, Daisy.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
Okay, I'm gonna go hmmm, I'm gonna go Kelsey A
damn it.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Okay, that's fine, because then I'm gonna go Lexi.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Okay, Then I'm gonna go Jen.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
J Yeah, okay, yeah, John, you're not going to put
a sister in yours. I already have one.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Oh yeah, sorry you have Lauren. Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
We've talked so much about Lauren and we've just screwed
up twice regarding her in your list. Yeah, okay, Yeah,
there's there's a good there's a some really good girls
in this caste, like some really great personalities, some girls
that'll be really entertaining, and also some girls that I
think have the potential have some really good romantic connections
(25:31):
with Joey.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Like, I'm excited about the cast.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
A lot of Yeah, I could see more most of them,
most of them in Paradise because that's obviously what would happen.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
We didn't see Chris said that much. Who I'm curious
to see more of. She's from She's Canadian, She's Canadian.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
My mom told me that I was pronouncing abbot's ford wrong.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
We were saying abbots for word, but it's abbots barred.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Any anything else big that we missed throughout the episode, No, I.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Think we cover most of it.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
The only thing we had Evelyn really freaking out at
the end of the Rose ceremony.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Yeah, that was an early freak out moment. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
I feel like there's always one person night, one that
that is really.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I'm just looking at We covered the jet Yeah, I
think I think he we do see in like the
super teaser for the season. I think he is really
into Kelsey.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
I you know who I feel like we saw on
the super teaser too, was Rachel, who is from Hawaii,
and she did like the lay entrance, Like she came
in and we both thought she was going to make
a sex joke and she just was sweet and gave
him the lay.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Yeah. Yeah, she seemed and she was also somebody who's
extremely confident.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
She was was very pretty.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Oh oh, let's talk about the the radio chemist.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Why Caitlin.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
It's just a crazy a. It's a crazy job. And
I really liked her. Oh yeah, yeah, I liked her.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I thought you meant like there was an incident with her.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
No, I just I just liked her.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I liked her too. I liked her too.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
And I also think he likes Kelsey t, which we
haven't really covered much on her. You don't really see
her too much. Yeah, but I think he really likes her.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
I agree. There's a lot of great women.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
There's a lot like and I'm glad that they cut
ten right away because truthfully, like there's having so many women,
it's just hard. It's hard to hard to watch and
like keep tracked, like even right now, like we're still
kind of like fumbling over it. And how many is
there now?
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Well? I think there was, Like let's just say, if
there was thirty two, there's probably twenty two.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
Now twenty two that's way more manageable.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Yeah, that is way more manageable for him and for viewers.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Yeah, Okay, before we go, I'll mention a few fashion phaves, Joe,
you could also mention a few fashion in faves, all right, Okay, Honestly,
I didn't take notes on what people were wearing, so
this is truly just from like memory of what stood out.
I liked Alison's dress. I thought it was a great
fit on her, and the baby pink was really cute
(28:14):
with her dark hair. I loved Chris's dress. I just
think she's so stunning. It was like black, sparkly. I
think I had like a train, like it was really
a moment. I'm trying to think of what everyone else.
But Maria's dress was by far, in my opinion, like
the biggest fashion statement, the biggest risk taker with like cutouts.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
It was really cool. I liked it, very edgy, definitely different.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
I feel like we see a lot of like sparkly
gowns night One, which is like literally what I wore too,
and they're beautiful, but hers really stood out. And then
lexi amazing gold gown, so stunning, and then Kitlyn Caitlyn
was another unique fashion choice, like a different silhouette than
what we usually see, and I thought it was really memorable.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
And those are my fashion paves.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
And I will say I do like the way Joey's
dressed the whole season. When we see it in the teaser,
I think he looks good in all his outfits. Liked.
I liked the suit that he had was it didn't
he have like a blue tie on?
Speaker 2 (29:13):
This is so pad But I don't remember.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Yeah, I don't remember either, but I'm pretty sure it
was like a blue tie that I really liked. He
looks good in pink, Yeah, he looks Joey looks Joey
looks good in colors.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Yeah, good for Joey, good for Joey.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
So yeah, I think, Uh, that pretty much covers it.

exclusive interviews. We have cast from this season coming on
