Speaker 1 (00:04):
Welcome to Madden Finally Single. I'm Jamie Black and I'm
Summer as Skyler fast Jones. And this is a meredithirs
I fan podcast where we invite a guest on who's
never watched an episode. Hey, welcome to another episode of
Mad and Finally Single. We are now in their reunion episodes.
(00:28):
I guess there's only going to be two of them
good instead of six hundred episodes.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Yay yay.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
But everybody looks good. Don't you think I thought that
they all look good? And okay, you look good to summer.
We all look.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
I'm a French lady.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
French girl, it's fun sticking out over top of your beret.
What your fun is over?
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
They all had to glow up for sure. Oh yeah
maybe one person who shower main nameless.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
And David has moved out of his basement.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
He finally saved up all his millions from living at
home for the past forty years. I was proud of him.
I was like, yay, full circle moment.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Oh my god, how are we organizing this?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
We just free for all, just talk about stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I think it's a free for all. I mean, I
mean at first it was a free for all, and
then they actually did do the do the the couple.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Wow, it's fine.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
My favorite part of everything was Carla's reaction shots.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
I know, she's got really good reaction shots.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
You know that they had a camera just trained on
her the entire time. Anytime she was out, it was
like Robin Williams, they were like, get the Carla cam.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Yeah yeah, because well because I'm pretty sure production noticed
her reactions to some of the because I swear to
God that the day that they were at the retreat
and David was apologizing and she was all, oh yeah no,
a camera right on her.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Yeah I love it.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah, all day.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
I could have watched two hours of Carlo reaction shots.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Yeah. Yeah. And this is it's a year later, yeah,
year after they've they filmed this, which was in September
twenty twenty three, so this so then this was September
twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Wow, yeah, like yeah, late last year, because I think
her text from September was like maybe midway through everything,
So that means they probably ended October twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Three, right right, yeah yeah, so yeah, so this may
be like October twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Four, which is so interesting because it's like at that
point the show started airing already, or we had just
started airing.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Not it started in October of twenty twenty four.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Yeah, so they're like, I mean they had to have
filmed the reunion after some of it already aired, because
they talked about.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
It was like to watch it back.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yeah yeah, so yeah, or they already had it edited
together and they were like watch this.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Oh I'm sure, but they said they watched it with
their work, their coworkers and family watched it.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Well, they lied. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Maybe it was like it was on for maybe a
month before they shot the reunion.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I don't know. Oh I wasn't there.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
It could be I mean yeah, because it could have been. Yeah,
because they could have shot it. They could have shot
it after it started airing.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
This timeline is as confusing as a David in Madison
dating timeline.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Right, It's literally its own like Marvel cinematic universe, Like
we're like, where are we Who's dead? But they're not
really dead, They're alive.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Oh shit.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
But it's nice to know that Carl and Wan get
together for coffee every now and then.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah, that makes me happy.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Because I thought Carla was done. She was like, I
don't need another friend.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, I'm back to where I'm like, okay, like they
can be friends and I'm happy about that. I also
feel like for the most part this because the host
even said it at one point too, where he's like,
you know, this is supposed to be like therapeutic, and
I think for the most part it was like everybody
finally was able to get their words together and express
(04:58):
their emotions. We love that.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Yeah, one is in a relationship, Alan's in a relationship.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Really quickly about Alan and in his relationship Rewind, I
was like, was he maybe the I mean, I love Alan,
I'm team Allen. But I was like, was he the problem?
Because he's like, she contacted me the night before my
wedding and I said, I'm getting married. I was like,
he had a side person too.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Well. It sounds like a lot of them did right.
Was there somebody else that did well?
Speaker 2 (05:31):
David David?
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Oh yeah, no, maybe he was the only one. I
feel like, maybe I'm getting this confused with fucking the
Love is Blind Reunion. I don't know, I feel like
a lot of them. Oh no, I know what I'm
getting confused with. I started watching The Secrets revealed it
was like another show, and they were talking about a
couple other people were saying that they you know, told
(05:57):
other people that they were dating that they couldn't pursue
it with them because they got accepted on the show.
And you know, I mean, I guess I see the
point like they are dating, do you know what I mean?
But I mean, yeah, Michelle hadn't like had anybody for
like six years. So I feel like, you know, if
I'm going to give her any credits that she really
seemed like she wasn't dating before she came on the show,
(06:19):
you know what I mean, Like she was just like
I'm going to try to really it's all working for me.
But I think some people are really dating, you know,
but they they go, well, they found me a match.
It's supposed to be my perfect match, and I'm going
to pursue.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
This thing, right and when I inevitably break it off,
I'll be richer because I'll have money for just living
my life and having cameras follow me around. Yeah, that's
what I would do.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
And then like to the Love is Blind.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
You're watching Love is Blind right now, which I'm also
getting this confused with because there is also a character
character person, real person.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
On that show who you'll see.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
I don't know which which episode you're on yet, Jamie,
but like they were seeing somebody, but it like then
the person came to try to destroy their reputation after
they were already on the show kind of thing, and
kind they kind of succeeded. So I think people people
are dating, you know, like, but I could see how
(07:17):
they would be like, oh, I can't pursue this with you.
I need to find I need to be married to
my soulmate.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Yeah, and it also made he made it sound like
that they had tried, they'd gone on a date and
then she just kind of disappeared and then she's like,
he be, let's get back together, and he's like, no,
I gotta date, I gotta get married tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
I mean, I still are confused on the whole Brandon
timeline with MM anyway, right, Like it's like they knew
each other for twenty years, but then they had it
like ever and then like on the second day, proposed
like it doesn't make any sense that they didn't like
know each other get in contact with each other, right
for twenty years?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Yeah about chatting, Yeah, it doesn't because like it's one
thing to be like, oh, I'm on the show called
Married at First Sight, so I'm going to go meet
this person that I've been matched with, so I'm going
to get married, and you know, it's if it works
out cool. If it doesn't, it well, it was just
like a weird experience I can talk about. But like,
obviously he's on this show too. But at the same time,
(08:22):
it's like it's weird because it's like real life too.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Yeah, I know, it's super weird.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
It's not like, you know, I mean, maybe producers did
I mean, obviously producers, I'm sure set it up to
some extent, but it's not like, Okay, this is the
concept and this is the person that you're marrying, and
it's just like, Okay, we went on two dates and
they just happened to be filmed, and now I'm going
to propose like it. I don't know, it's weird. I
don't like it.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Oh weird, it's all so weird. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
But yeah, so I but they had they've broken up
into two reunion episodes and the Brandon stuff is going
to be on the next one. So we didn't get
but they showed a preview of it.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Guys, they did show a preview of it. That's going
to be crazy.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
That's very crazy.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
It's just I'm just like, what what is happening? What's
going on?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
They're going to get married on the show.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Now, it would be nuts. If Pastor Cow you know,
agrees to it.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Why wouldn't he?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
It's great TV.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
It is great TV.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Could you imagine if Pastor cow is just.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Like nah, I almost expect him to say no, Oh
my goodness.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
I mean it's all set up by production. He has
to contract.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Yeah, oh my god, that's gonna be great.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Speaking of great television, I don't know if you notice
any of the promos for the movies coming up.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
No, the only thing I saw, oh the Lifetime movies.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Yes, like the Octa Mom stuff. Oh not Octomom.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
No.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
There's one called Taken at a Basketball game, and it
apparently a the black version of the Taken movie.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
After is it? Is it like a mom with a vengeance?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
No, it is a dad, a black dad who's daughter
got taken out of basketball and now he's going he's
got to find he's got to find the guy that took.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Her, just like like literally called Taken at a Basketball game.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
It is literally called taken at a basketball game.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Oh my god. I can't wait for taking at a
Basketball to come out.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Yeah right.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I love a good movie or TV show title. I
you know, years later, decades later, I still think about
two guys a girl in a pizza place. Never saw
a single episode, could not tell you what it's well,
I guess I could, but like, why not? Could you
imagine like you're writing that script and to pitch it
(10:59):
and sell it and it's like a fifteen word long
title and somebody and production was like yes.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Right, Oh my god. Okay, So there's another thing I
want to talk about.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
I love the exchange between Madison and Michelle when I
mean Michelle is so funny. I love Michelle's comments. Madison goes,
I'm not trying to rehash this with you, and Michelle goes,
I think that's what this is for.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Saying, this is literally what this is for the union.
We have to rehash it.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Yes, I just I love those two so much. And
then like shortly after that, when Madison was like, I
mean I don't even know, like why she was staying
with him for eight weeks and she just goes, why
did you stay with Alan for eight weeks? And I
was like, yes, why.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
Couldn't they waited just one more week? That's what my
mom kept saying. She was like, why couldn't they have
just waited one more week?
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Yeah? Well, and even Michelle, I mean she even said
it where she's like, if he had just been honest,
if they had both just come to me, I could
have just been like, let's just do it for the
eight weeks and then you guys can go at each other.
And I'm like that part, just stay there for the
money and then be like this isn't working and obviously
isn't going to work. And then oh, Michelle or Madison
(12:29):
David are now together at the reunion and nobody's a villain.
Everybody's happy.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
True.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Yeah, yes, So the Kevin our hosts, Oh my god,
I love Kevin.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Kevin. He kept pushing the timeline thing with them.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
I was like, yes, Kevin, he's so good.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Yeah, he's good at trying to get to the truth.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
It still doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
No, he really doesn't, But I don't care. I'm not
mad at him. Still not mad at.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Talk about Thomas and Camille anniversary in London.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Yeah they're aren't they cute?
Speaker 2 (13:17):
I laughed because when they were like showing previous clips
of them and they were talking about like how he
was talking about how like it's hard to be like
inter racial because you know, kids made fun of me
for growing up and blah blah blah, and I was like, oh, like,
why didn't they put this on the show. I literally
thought it was like, here's one of the clips that
(13:37):
we didn't show you because that's just like how forgettable
every moment with those two ways. And then I was like, oh, wait,
this actually aired. I've seen this clip before and I
just fully don't remember it.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Cool, No, I mean that's how I felt when I
was watching the Secrets Revealed episode that was a different episode.
We're not talking about it, but I was watching it anyway,
and I was like, who are these people again? Like
I forgot all.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Of them, like it was from people from multiple seasons.
Did I freeze? No?
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Okay, you know I that started to my DVR didn't
record that, so I'm gonna have to go somewhere and
find that. Yeah, I want to watch that.
Speaker 4 (14:18):
Yeah, it's interesting, like they have like some real throwback people.
But I'm like, I don't remember your season at all.
They have Gina on.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
There, I remember her.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah, yeah, I saw the previews like, oh that looks good.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah, that's what I always love about reality shows. I
was like, you get so heated about people that you're
like I can't stand this person or I love this person,
and then like a year or two later, you're like,
who who.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
Did that?
Speaker 2 (14:48):
With Big Brother all the time, Like I would be like, oh,
this person needs to be eliminated. I can't stand them
inte the next year, I was like, I don't remember
this person anymore.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
Yeah, I don't remember them, and you your lives of all,
they've all moved on and some of them were really
scarred by experience too.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
And that thing to hear about, you know.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
But yeah, okay, So so Thomas and Camille, I think
even though they're very boring, like their timeline or storyline
is very boring, I think they're really funny.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
That's my verdict that they're hysterical. I would love to
hang out with them.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
I think, yeah, I could be into that.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Have you played the avocado moment? I'm fucking dead? That
is really funny. I mean anybody that would grab an
avocado and shove in someone's mouth is like, I'm like,
you're my friend.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Like, yeah, especially with how expensive avocados are these days.
That's all I could think about. I was like, damn,
she couldn't do that if that was filmed this year. Yeah,
forty five dollars scene right there.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
It's true. Yeah, and they're talking about a baby maybe
the next year or two.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Old.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
I was hoping that she's gonna be like, I'm pregnant,
but I was like, oh, okay, well that's fine, save
it for later. But yeah, I mean, you know, even
though he's old, Jamie, you know, Camille made it very
obvious that everything is working for him.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Still you sure did.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
It's not that old. He's only forty two.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Yeah, but could you imagine if he If you're forty two,
you have a baby. Now, when your child graduates, you're
going to be fifty. No, no, you'll be.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Sixty.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Would your child graduates in second grade, you're going to
be fifty. When they graduate from high school, you're going
to be sixty.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
I have some some friends who are older parents or
I guess after the age of forty year older.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
But yeah, I mean, I.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
Mean I don't expect his stuff to stop working yet
that sometimes it starts early, but you know, it usually
takes a little bit longer than than that, right.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
What to stop working or to all the.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Stuff to stop working down there?
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I mean sometimes it never stops.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Yeah, there's also viagra.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Well yeah, there's that too, But I mean I mean.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
In terms of like good sperm is what you're saying, right.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Oh, is that what you're well, I wanted the sperm viable.
Well that's different than it working.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
I know that is different. But if they're going to
have a baby, I guess it's about the.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Yeah yeah, oh right right, yeah yeah, making sure you
get some good ones.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Yeah what sky?
Speaker 2 (17:45):
So according to Google AI, which is wrong of the time,
I feel like while men continue to produce sperm throughout
their lives, male fertility generally starts to decline around age
forty to forty five, with sperm quality and quantity decreasing,
though men can still father children at older ages.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Uh huh, Yeah, as we see with Robert de Niro. Yeah,
who's the other somebody else has has children?
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Al Pacino?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Doesn't he have al Pacino that's the other one.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Yep, yeah, but that's different. They drink the gold juice.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
That's true.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
One of my friends had got his girl, his wife
pregnant and he was fifty and she was like twenty
years younger than him, so you know, it can happen.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
But yeah, you're right.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
I guess they better get on it. But I thought
they gave like really good advice, Like they're they're just
so articulate and like sweet and like they.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Say, it's such great.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
They put things so well, like you know, they they
really sort of explained what a good marriage is all
about when they said that consistency is key, and I
was like, oh my god that it was kind of
naha moment for me because I was like, oh, yeah,
like that's with everything right, like consistently and see is
(19:01):
literally that's the advice I give like my acting students
when they're like what do I need to do to
get better? I'm like, you need to be consistent because
usually the ones that ask that question are the ones
that are not consistent.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
They're all like, what what can I do?
Speaker 4 (19:13):
Like give me the you know, the give me the
straight shot to you know, the magic advice, the golden
ticket to like unlocking the secrets of the universe and.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
The thing, we wouldn't be here because yeah, you talking
to you.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
Right, It's just and it's the same thing with marriage,
just like consistency. I was like, that's so genius that
he said.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Yeah, very true, very true.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
You just have to be consistent with it, not drop out,
not dip out of the relationship.
Speaker 3 (19:48):
That's right, Like what how do you how do you not?
How do you stay to get together? Don't get divorced?
Speaker 4 (19:54):
Really, you know, if you decide that you want to
be in that just for fifty.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Years, that's a long time.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
I know, it's a long time.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
That's cool. When it happens, it is cool.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
I hope they stay together for a really long time.
They seem sweet. I also wrote about Akchi.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Yeah, Kchi, I just love how at the very beginning
of the show when Kevin is like, are you dating anybody?
I don't share that information? It was good thing you're
on a telol reunion. It's great, And I was like, oh,
you're still an asshole. I'm glad.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Why did he get picked for the show?
Speaker 4 (20:37):
I just I need to know why he got picked,
Like he's like he first of all, where is his affect?
It's like, I don't even know where it is, right, Like,
he's not a good If he was like this when
they were searching for somebody, he never.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Would have gotten on it. Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (20:53):
Like, no one puts someone like that shut down on
the reality show.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Really, right, It's true.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
It's like do just nothing.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
There's no nothing penetrating the surface with him, right, So
that's not that's not helpful.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
But how did he get and how did he get?
He applied twice? What's that? Skylark?
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Sorry, this is really off topic. Does it give you
a mole on your filter? Or is that a spot
on my screen?
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (21:22):
No, it does give me a mole.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Sorry, Continue what you were saying.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
That's amazing, that's right. I didn't know that. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I was like, I was afraid that there was like
a bug on your glasses. I was like, swat that
ship away.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Yeah, I guess with the glasses you can't relate.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
I apologize anyway. Continue, I don't even know what I
was saying.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
I was just saying I was I think I was saying,
how did the catch you get?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
On the producer? I still stand by that, But why is.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
He so shut down?
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Then?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Like if he's a producer.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Plant, why a good one because he can't remember what
they told him to say. So he's like, I'm just
going I don't want to talk about that.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
So it's so bizarre.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Yeah, I don't understand that.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Yeah, they're like, would you would you apply again? Absolutely
not like you applied twice, dude, you process.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Twice, right, Yeah, but he didn't get selected the first time,
so now elected, he's like, oh.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
He didn't, But I mean, have you seen that questionnaire
just for I think have you ever applied for Jamie?
Speaker 3 (22:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Maybe for Married at First Sight? No, I was too
old when it starts.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
I think I was too old too.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
But maybe it was a different reality TV show back
in the day. But just like just the initial questionnaire
is like so long. Maybe it was love connection or something.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
So then I've applied for I had applied for so
many different realities.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I was going to say, how many of you applied to?
Speaker 4 (22:59):
Okay, let's see, well I was on one, which was
on the Style Network.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
I applied to.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
I auditioned for the next Coyote Ugly, I auditioned for
Survivor I applied for Love Connection maybe Buried at first Sight?
Speaker 3 (23:16):
Wow, how many of you applied for guys? None?
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Well, no, I was on. I've applied for Survivor. I've
applied for the Amazing Race.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Yes, oh, I think I also applied for.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
The Circle, and then of course a Dating Story, which
is the one I was on.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
And then game shows don't count now it's a different.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Genre, true, still reality, But yeah, yeah, you applied for
any Jeopardy I applied.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
I started to apply for Big Brother ones and then
I got too nervous and I backed.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
Out because the questionnaires are really long, right where you're
just like, oh, I can't believe I'm filling out another.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
One of these.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I found the marriage at first Sight one you did, Yeah,
somebody posted it on Reddit out for San Diego.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Okay, good, fine, send that to us.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Right, they have a lot. They couldn't be looking to
put gays on here, because it's like interested in men
women both or open asking about pronouns.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Well, maybe they had to make it appear like they would.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
Well maybe they just didn't find anybody that they which
is hard to believe that in all of the people
in this country that have applied for married at First
Sight in all the eighteen seasons, they couldn't have found
some interesting gay people to put on.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
There, right, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
Yeah, but it's not an initial like questionnaire. There's like
lots of them.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Yeah yeah, that one was like sixty five questions, and
that was just sixty five questions.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
That the thing.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
I must have filled that one out at some point,
because like you know, when you go to that's the
only thing that keeps me from applying for some of
these shows now, is that the casting process.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
It's just so long. Oh no, sorry.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
When I was.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Married, when I was marrying my ex and I applied
for another reality show.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
I don't even remember what that was.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
It's not like I don't think it ever aired, but
we were in the finals for it, which is like
it was like a family swapping situation where I all
family and did they did.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
They ever air?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
It was it not wife swap.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
It wasn't wife swap. It was like in law family swap.
So my mom and like his mom and they were
all like being talked to by casting and we were
like really really close to doing it, and then they
ended up going with like like an Israeli Palestinian situation instead,
(25:57):
which was way better.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
So like yeah, yeah, yeah, ours was. We weren't that different,
but our families are pretty different.
Speaker 4 (26:04):
And they were like in the in the last stages
where they were like talking to our family members.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
So they were like, if the Israeli Palestinian conflict falls out,
yeah we got this family.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
I don't I don't think that the show ever aired.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Just like a couple of my other friends were in
a show that never aired either, and they want a house.
It was like a competition show about like down in
Austin and they they want a house out of it.
But they got the house, but the show never aired.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
I was gonna say, I was like, did they get
to keep the house? Could you imagine? It never went
to air? So sorry, you don't get We.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
Watched the screening in the house. They oh wow, it
was really cute and they were a gay couple. They
were a gay couple, and it was like they took
a cul de sac of people and they I think
they all the neighbors like they.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Wait a minute, wait a minute, did it air?
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Maybe it did air.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
It did. It was on CBS, wasn't it because they like.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
But maybe it was just one season though. What.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Yeah, they put like a wall around the neighborhood, right,
and families competed against each other.
Speaker 3 (27:10):
Yeah, and then they got to keep the house or something. Right.
Steve was the guy's name.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
He was.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
He was a lovely gentleman. He was friends with my friend.
His name is Steve and his.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Husband and they was his husband's name, Adam, Adam and Steve.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
I remember did it air on CBS? Maybe it did air.
I don't know. I'm having memory problems. This is a
long time ago, but I.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Know it was just like one It maybe was one
season or one episode or one whatever.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
I wasn't on it.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Going to find this, well, look up, Steve. Is it
Steve and John, Yes, with an adopted black child. Yeah,
the house that they won, Yes, subdivision of circles. See,
it was written about in the Chicago Tribune.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Oh interesting the trip.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
Huh?
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Hang on, what was it called? This is gonna I
have to find this.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
I can't believe you saw this.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Well I never watched it. I just remember they were like.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
The sweetest couple. I think they had two adopted kids.
Maybe they just said one at the time, but really cute,
really cute.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
That's so funny.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
And it's like, hey, if CBS can have gay couples
on a reality show back at twenty years ago, what's married?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Right? I remember they were like I don't want to
live next to a gay couple as well.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Yeah, oh yeah there was that.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Yeah, too bad, too freaking bad. We were talking about
m mini K Did we do? Are we finished with
talking about them?
Speaker 4 (28:37):
And I just think it's interesting how he never talks
in specifics, like never, right, He's just like so many generalities.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
It's so weird. Yeah, he's a producer, he's doing a
terrible job.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
He's an ass, he's yeah, and I don't know why
he has to be shut down.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
And you know, he was really still like mugging and
being we heard with m.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
M But she took it like a champ.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
She did.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
It was really really politic, very like calm and man.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Yeah she was. It was good. Well, but he tried
I think he tried to get her a rise out
of her.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
And then the whole like thing about violating the consent.
Did they just like did how did that end up
turning out? Would they just say that basically he didn't
he didn't violate her consent?
Speaker 3 (29:31):
Or did he lie about that or did he just
not understand what that meant?
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (29:35):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
You really think she did violate his consent?
Speaker 1 (29:38):
Guy? Okay, violated? Oh when when she tried to get
him to Is that what you're talk about, when she
tried to get and have sex?
Speaker 3 (29:46):
Yeah, yep, milk, welcome to the name guy. You found it?
Speaker 1 (29:50):
Yep, but right in air.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
They pulled it ten days before it was supposed to
air because they said that it was too controversial, because
it showed people hating on minority groups too much. Oh,
I remember, I remember the ads for it, but it
never aired.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
I was like, how the hell did you see it?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Then?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Okay, there were ads for it and they pulled it.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
So maybe that's why Married at First Sight has never
had a gay I don't.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Know until it goes on Peacock, right.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
I mean I've said it before, but I think Lifetime
is basically a bunch of white women, probably conservative white
women watch Lifetime for the romance movies and all those
other movies and everything like that. So I bet you
anything that's why they don't have a gay couple on it.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
And a lot of them are probably like, well, we
like gays like going to a drag show, but like,
we don't want to see marriage of.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
Gays right exactly.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
The about of like straight women that are always at
Hamburger Mary's, Like they're like the bad bad and I'm like,
that's great. I feel like that you're making me a
spectacle though, because I'm walking my dog and they're like, look, honey,
a real native gay in the neighborhood. And I feel
(31:11):
like that that's what the Lifetime audience is.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And that's why they don't have gay couples.
But they're going to on Peacock.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
I bet you yeah, because you have one of the
top shows hosted by Alan Cumming, who is a fabulous
gay man. And there's plenty of gays on The Traders,
so therefore there will be at least one gay couple
on marrit At First Sight season nine hundred or whatever.
We're on.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
Willing it into existence.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Now the season and now we're going to add this
random gay couple.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
Let's get Carla to help us manifest. What do you think, Yes,
get her in a zoom session. I bet you do it.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Probably, Yeah, we can hire her to just do a
message for us.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Yeah, I love that okay, fun.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
Well, I don't have anything else to say about this episode,
do you guys?
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I feel like part two might be spicier. This one
was just kind of like, Okay.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
I think this. I think this episode was just to
give us the preview of the next episode, so we
tune in for next week.
Speaker 4 (32:25):
Yeah, next week definitely the last one, right do what?
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Next one's the last one?
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Next one's the last one. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
I took such a few notes this time around.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
I was like, you know, I'm talking about me too. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
Oh and the only thing I'll say is that I'm
I was shocked. And he's like, yeah, I just wasn't
attracted to m.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
M right, Oh yeah she was. He was looking for
a Michelle Obama, and there are different kinds of Michelle Obama,
like shut the fuck up, he's oh god, I hate I.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Mean it's more like Michelle Obama then then EMM.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
Yeah, right, she's a badass woman in business. She's well spoken,
she's attractive, like and I love how they were like, well,
what's your definition of Michelle obaum? And he's like, oh,
you know, not her, And I was like, okay, he doesn't.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
Have any specifics coming out of his mouth, It's like
how do you move move through life?
Speaker 3 (33:22):
Like that? Even like he really said, like.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
What have you been doing? He's like, well, I've been
touring with my music and some other my art Like what.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
Same?
Speaker 3 (33:33):
They like kind of showed him like playing a guitar
for like two seconds, like what was that? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:40):
They were like, ship, this episode's running too short? Why
can we do go play your guitar? Do you roll
up fucking.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
Playing a guitar?
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Like it's it's so non specific, like I don't know
who this guy is.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Yeah, I just.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Don't know what if you were going to if he
was a producer plant, why wouldn't he be better than that?
Like you know, if someone put me into the show,
I would like, and they were paying me, I would.
Speaker 3 (34:10):
Like take the assignment seriously. I'd be like, Okay, what
do you want me to do? You want me to
throw a wrench into the work. You want me to
stir the pot, you want me to fuck some shit up.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
I'm gonna do it, but I'm also gonna do it,
and I'm gonna give you specifics.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
I want to work on my part, do you know
what I mean? It's gonna be good it's gonna be good.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
I mean he did make it good. He showed up
with bad paperwork, he called her an asshole. Yeah, he
just wasn't good about talking about himself.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
M M yeah, yeah, I guess it is hard.
Speaker 4 (34:41):
I'm thinking like in that Secrets Revealed episode, they which
Jamie is still gonna see, they talk about how difficult
it is to be on camera all that time. I
think Gina was saying, like, it's just fucking exhausting, which
we know that because we're actors.
Speaker 3 (34:56):
We know how exhausting it is.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
And they're like, but and they're like, these conversations are
making you have a really exhausting and you like have
to stay in it, right, And so maybe he just
spun his wheels and whatever he was prepared to say,
and they're like, and they're like, the other problem is
like you have to stay in it.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
You're freaking exhausted.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
She's like, but if you get up and go to
another room because you need to take a break, the
cameras are going to follow you.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
So you're just like totally right.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:22):
I was like, yeah, that's that's brutal.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
I mean, listen, pretty Kchi. Some people are actors. Some
people are stunt people. He's a stunt person. Yeah, he
takes stunts. He's not an actor, you know.
Speaker 3 (35:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Yeah, there's just a fun analogy I came up with that.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
Yeah, very good. I mean, I guess some people are actors,
but I don't know there are ye.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
But you're right, there's all different kinds of yeah, and
there's a different type of person that makes a good
reality you know, pass member as well.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
All right, well, you guys have anything else to say?
Are we done?
Speaker 1 (35:57):
I think we're done because I think next week is
the one that's we're going to be talking for yay,
because that's when all the ship goes down. Is next week?
Speaker 3 (36:05):
So and so oh, I just have one other thing
to say.
Speaker 4 (36:08):
So, like, so, then if they are filming these two
years ahead of when they air, is that what we've
determined at this point?
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Well, I don't think. I think this season was an exception.
I don't think that's normally like that.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
So the next one's Denver.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
No, Yes, No, in the next one Austin.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
The next one's Austin, because they just did Denver, didn't they.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Yeah, I think it's Austin. Let me see according to Wikipedia,
let me scroll down. Yeah Austin.
Speaker 4 (36:41):
Oh okay, right, that's right, And so that must be
like they must be done filming or or do you
think they're filming it now?
Speaker 1 (36:49):
They're probably done filming, okay, don't you.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
I would imagine, yeah, because they already got renewed for
a couple mores. Oh wait, hang on, and is that good?
Updates Peacocke, I think is cool? Hang on? They had
let me see here. Oh no, never mind, that's just
premiere date for the last past season.
Speaker 4 (37:08):
Because I'm just so confused, but like, yeah, but okay, cool.
Then I can't wait for that one. Oh my gosh,
it's gonna be so good.
Speaker 2 (37:16):
It's your season, summer, it's my season filmed in you.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
They filmed it in me where I used to live.
And hopefully it's got gaze.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
It has everything we could ever want, I hope.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
So yeah, yeah, there's a lot of flair in Austin.
Speaker 2 (37:36):
Keep Boston weird.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
Well do you all have anything to plug.
Speaker 3 (37:44):
Right now?
Speaker 1 (37:45):
