Welcome to Will You Accept This Rose? A production of I Heart Radio. Oh Yeah, I'm just got where you reach me, Oh my god, And welcome to will You Accept This Rose? Listen to Your Heart Edition. My name is Arta Marine, coming to you from my Boogie Garage and Silver Lake. A little housekeeping up top for those of you, the lesson souls who have been going on the loved journey with us from one Pablo season. Here's the deal, guys. Since nobody's driving anywhere and you can only listen to so many podcasts a week, we are going to stay current right now and do listen to your Heart as it airs, and we're gonna be releasing these episodes as they are this week, and then we'll as soon as Listen to Your Heart is done, we will jump right back where we left off with Juan Pablo, which has turned out to be a spectacular season. For those of you who are not listening along, it's actually been a really fascinating blast from the pass to get to know our upcoming bachelorette that ABC cannot seem to get men to apply today, so many so many ads that ran also um well, oh you guys, keep thank you so much to everybody who's been sending in receipts from my pre order from my book little Miss Little Compton. I'm gonna be doing a drawing next week. I made a quarantine easter bonnet last week that I'm going to you pull a name and send to somebody. I'm not saying I'm leaving my house to mail it anytime soon, because I'm terrified of germs. But at some point you will be receiving an easter bonnet that you can wear to a spring gala. You could wear it to a garden party, a Fourth of July quarantine fiesta. I don't know a Sinco to mile party. It's up to you how you like to wear your hat. Wear all right with me today. As a man who's really nailing the quarantine, a man who rinses himself off every day. You might know him from as God on Supernatural, which has its final two episodes coming up right now. He's a fifteen. You might know him from Bosch on Amazon. You might know him as Bachelor of the Year eight. Will he find love? Ladies and gentlemen, Your friend, my friend Robbie Benedicto, everybody, rob your looking great? Do you trim it. I trimmed it once at the beginning of the quarantine, and now it's coming back out full and gray, as gray as it needs to be. Oh, this is so I want you to know that this is this is a part of We're only missing jury and pageant. You are all the last people I saw before the before the doors got sealed on, and you know, it all happened so quickly. I mean I remember walking into your place and you were, you know, covered up in a moon move and I can only see your eyes and and I remember thinking, really are we doing this? Is this? This is happening? And literally the next day that's what everybody was doing. Like I knew, I've been waiting. I've been I have a little prepper inside of me that's just been waiting, waiting for a pandemic to just prove all of my madness and side. You had just come back from signing all these things in Vegas, which felt which is crazy. I mean, the weed, the fact that we did that, that we that we went through with that, I mean again, and it was a no touch convention, and I remember going, are we really were doing this? Is that? And then three days later it's like, I can't believe we had that convention. I could tell you that Katie and Anna I did say to them, do we need to kick Rob out because you just did a convention and they were like, you're crazy and thank you ladies. Um, but I don't want to clarify that that. We have two more episodes of the show to do, but we were unable to do them, so we need to Supernatural. So we basically put a pause on on production of that show and until whenever that gets to happen again, so we have to finish. But yeah, I just don't know when that's gonna happen. It's so crazy. Yeah, speaking of so crazy, I'm not sure what band he's in front of right now. USh well that I'm so sorry. He was a hormone a moment ago, but now he's a member of Rush Ladies and Gentlemen. You know him from our podcast. You know him from falling in like a real team love with Rob, falling in a Team Love with Tadget and Jerry, and then he's been breaking on if you're not on Patreon listening to our Love is Blind podcast that are almost every week with Anna and myself and his Lady Love. And if you're not listening to the Brando Cast where he breaks down albums with people like myself or Rob Benedict Hadget Brewster, all of your favorite Jerry Trainer, you are missing out, ladies and gentlemen. Brendan Smith, now is it happy? Ariet? Sure? I feel like I should have a cocktail. I think you should. I just would tell you guys before this, I accidentally just had my second ever edible. Didn't realize it was an edible. I had a good time. I had a good time. I stuffed really well. Good Um, Brendan, We've been having fun breaking down the Love Is Blind podcasts or the episodes of that TV show it has taken the world by storm. Yeah, I will admit that I'm following some of them on Instagram. Pulled me in and I can say this without ruining anything. I believe Cameron and Lauren maybe getting their own show. Oh well, I want to say I love them. And if you've already, if you're already like Ardent, I want to watch more. I'm having a really hard time. We highly recommend the Australia episodes, right Anna, which which which couple is getting their own show? Which I saw Cameron. Cameron and Lauren there the greatest couple ever. It was the nerdy scientist gentleman and the beautiful lady whose dad was Pappa Pappa Steel who was suspect of Cameron. The African American lady in the tall white yes, yes, yes, yes awesome, the black lady and the white guy. Oh man, that guy is so dorky, but I love them. He's dorky, but he's he's found CrossFit and he's got like that CrossFit build. Yes. I was like, I termed my friend Andy Fleming is obsessed with the program, and he tells me that gay gentleman. According to him, he says, gay guys love Cameron. Yeah. I was like, what, huh chasing Cameron? Yeah? Has anybody here cut their own hair? Hair? Watch? Anybody cut the round hair? Yet? Um? I did not. But that was a mistake because I had to sneak my bathroom sink because there's too much of my long hair down it, and that was disgusting. Okay, Anna, Katie, have you cut your own hair? Have you died your own hair? No? I'm not doing anything to my hair. I decided, like, I don't care if I go like I got my hair highlighted um a couple of months ago, in a way where like my when my grace grow in, will just become of camouflaged and I don't have to care about them because I don't care about them. And so I'm very thankful I did that because I've had some grace coming in. I just don't give a funk. I'm leaving it and I'll just wear my hair. Because I am very picky about who cuts my hair. I only go to one guy because he knows cut curly hair really good. So I'm not doing anything. I'm rob my lady friend cut the back of my hair because that that my hair goes. I do feel like I'm gonna have to cut Anthony's hair and that's going to be the most terrifying thing I ever do, So I'm not looking forward to that. Maybe clippers people get clippers. I don't know. I've also not caught or dyed my hair. The only good news it's getting a little. I'm trying to use a roller roller rink like disco. Look, it's the all skates at the disco. Um My ginger is coming in and I can't believe it. My mom when she died, took my neck with her. But she didn't have any gray hair. I don't have any gray hair. That's good. Yeah, I'll take it. I can't believe it. I can't believe it. Your garage. Your garage is working very well as a zoom background too. I really like it's like you're in a fun little box there. Oh my god, that's fun. Well, if I have to do a book tour from my from my house, maybe this will be the room that I do for him. Maybe this will be like if I can weasel my way, like, hey, Seth Myers, is this my background? That's it? I mean they haven't said yes or anything. That's like my shooting off. That's my region for the stars. All right, everybody here we go. Listen to your heart. We're in a wet driveway. They tried to trick us and make us think of us the same bachelor mansion as the one that's in Calabasa's. But quickly there was too many fire pits and too many bedrooms for this to be the same mansion. Where is it. It's got to be towards Malibu. I think those cliffs felt like those cliffs. I'm actually going to go out on a limb because those cliffs were a little bit wrong because I know that terrain pretty goddamn Well, yeah, I think they're like out in like Semi Valley. I thought off of the one. I recognized rocks and it looked like the one team. But there's one part of Mali that has rocks like that. But I think that's out by because it was just too big and you could see like a freeway at one point, you know what looks like Palm Springs Like it's yeah, well, now Malibli would be too expensive. Probably Seen Valley makes sense, Okay, Yeah, because there's a couple. I know there's a couple. There's a couple of how like when I wrote on the show My Boys, we used a similar estate out in Semi Valley, uh, to shoot like a desert resort location. And and I because it was bothering me because we we've never seen that exposed rock wall behind the mansion. That was a good tell. Well so he Chris Harrison comes out looking actually pretty fresh and good, and he says, you all loved a star is born when they fell in love through the music, and well, the magic said that a shared love of music leads love. I have the following to point, now a star is born. When she got success, he took a doughnut and wiped it down her face, and then he was so addicted to drugs that he spoiler alert hangs himself. Like is this really the love story for the ages that you want? Brent Rob? What did you think of that? I don't think it was a romantic movie. It's I have to preface by saying I came into this thinking I'm not gonna like it because I never liked the contestants of The Bachelor there there with their guitar to their songs as as you mean as a musician, I'm like extra, just like it's cringe e to me. So I came in like, Okay, what's going on here? What is this? So that being said, yeah, that analogy makes absolutely no sense. Is that Are you telling me that some guys gonna get more famous than the girl, that he's gonna bring the girl up and she's gonna get more famous than him than he's gonna kill himself. No, that's not at all. It's a bad analogy, I have to say by the end, but I can't wait for the next one. It's so fun. Also, it's such a disaster. My favorite text that I got was from Katie Vine last night, who said, I think ABC created COVID, just COVID nineteen, just to make all of us a stars board or whatever. This is Listen to your heart. Even Jerry Trainer, who would not watch it of course, was watching it and texting us, probably jealous as he's not in on the podcast. Um, Brendan, what did you think? Did you like it? I? Okay, I'm gonna be brief. I loved it. The music is gonna kill me, yeah, because you know, as I sit here before you guys on Zoom with my rush background, the genre of music that these young people are playing is nails on a chalkboard. For me. It is the fifth plane of hell, and Satan is torturing me with pop country and really sugary, sugary sweet songs about bullshit and and and so there's one there's one contestant, and I'll talk about her later that I'm pinning my hopes on. I'm hoping that she will bring the rock, because bringing the rock is always important to me. But otherwise I'm gonna go crazy. I do love everyone because everyone's a little nerdier than your regular Bachelor Bachelorette cast, which I like a lot. Arden You know this, Rob, you know this, Katie, Anna, you know this? Can We always ask the question can that person be on Paradise? Can that person? You know what I mean? And there's a couple of them that I think could pass on those shows. But I like it because it's a different mix of people. Yeah, but they're gonna drive me fucking crazy with their music. Well, Jet Jet with the dog food jingle and that that Jett is like better ball, you better have your better ball. That's how Look, it is impressive when somebody can pull a guitar out and sing a little bit, that's right. But I want them to pull the guitar out and I want them to play all of Russia's or Van Halen one from start to finish, our appetite for destruction by guns and roses. Just one fucking song. It's not gonna happen. Look, I am not a John Mayor. I'm not like like, I am not fucking creamin my pants John Mayer. Like that is not an Katie overall? Did you enjoy it? Yes? I I think I texted to texted you guys last night that it's like the perfect amount of unbearable but then like hard to look away. I love that every dude wishes he was Jackson Mayne and a star is born. They all have that jacket. They all drive a beat up forward pick up like it's so esthetic, like they all have their acoustic guitar ready to go at any point. I love it. I think the singing is great, which is like a big selling point for me because then every once in a while we get to hear a nice song and then I'm like, Okay, sure fall in lover, don't at least I'm being entertained, Katie. I founded to be a bit brutal, uh, because like everybody was just so like the guys were just wearing so many rings, and it was just like they're like in their paints were all just too tight, and they had stupid fucking boots on. But they were good at singing, and I think it'll be entertaining. It's definitely gonna keep me entertaining. During the quarantine, I was not excited to watch this, and I think because I've had I feel like the way I've been getting to the quarantine is almost like I don't have a fever, but it's like I have a low grade fever. Like I just treated like I'm a barren hibernation. I've kind of just my will to live. It's like it's like I'm if I'm doing a good job. Is I never see sky for eighteen days in a row, you know, so your your whole body just kind of slows to crawl a little bit. And I felt like this jolted me back to like like back of like art and remember who you are like and the fact that this was a present day program that it actually woke me up and was like, come on, girl, like let's do this. So here we go. Okay, Brendan, you get the final thought before we get started, because he hasn't need to say. I was just gonna say I know that Sheridan smells like but Uli because I could smell it through the TV. All Right, So we have twenty singles. Um we meet and it's always hard at the beginning of a show because it's a quick, quick snippet. But we meet Brandon Mills. He's thirty four, he's a sniper. He is a marine who was deployed and he wrote music fascinating to start with a sniper. He had a nice voice, he was kind of hot. I'm curious to see what the ladies think when they find out that he was a pro sniper rob What did you think of that? I thought he was a really bad person to start with. Really again, I came in it going like I don't know if I'm gonna like this, and then honestly almost turned it off. I really you gotta start with like they should have started with one of the other dudes, and by the end of it there are a couple of other dudes that really we're worth watching, but odd called the start with the sniper Frinden, I was gonna say, having seen the entire show, he's the kind of guy that gets eliminated on the Bachelorette and like week two or three, Yeah, you see him once or twice. He tries to make out with the bachelorette. He doesn't go anywhere. He gets eliminated pretty quickly. My take on him, he's like the guy that's the third wheel right now to uh, Kelly and Peter who are quarantining together, and then there with Dustin, he's the Dustin. You know, he's like kind of making it safe that Kelly and Peter are together because you've got some sniper there. Okay, So here we go. Then we meet Breathe Free. She's twenty eight from Probo Utah. She was engaged. We meet Sheridan. He's a twenties seven year old Austin gentleman who with his car named Sheila, his Subaru who's wasn't true love. He put twelve thousand miles on it. I thought that many miles thous of miles, Katie, you absolutely actually visibly just shuddered. Katie. I saw you know, I I thought I had the same time. And Anthony was like, we're here, and He's like, twelve miles is not a lot of miles, Like that's like a normal year for most people, but miles, like see what's the mall and back fifteen times. I don't know it's a target. I don't know. It's just like, Anna, what do you think? Um? I mean, I I this guy is so stereotypically I don't know. I mean he drives a super it's a good car. But other than that, I was like, he bought his look at Urban Outfitter. She was like, okay, rock or Urban outs I'm gonna grow the hair. I'm gonna get the flat hat that I could wear to Coachella. And then it's like Instagram friendly that's been around now for like six years, like that big Oh, it's very it's very YouTube. Joshua Tree. Yeah, he's trying to pull off a very odd look where you don't know if he's country, you don't know if he's rock. And I say, those twelve thousand miles came from driving from Austin to burning Man a couple of times. Not Polly Cows, So let me meet We meet that guy. She's twenty five and she's doing vocal warmups. She's a musical theater nerd talking to herself in the mirror. You deserve love to be thrust upon you. Uh no, I'm just at this point, I'm just confused, confused. I'm still confused where the show's going, what's happening. Yeah, yeah, the guy, the bearded guy from Austin really threw me. When you're dressed like that, you don't talk about that's how you dress. Yeah, you can't talk about it. And he talked about being from Austin a lot, you know from Austin, from Austin a hat. You know, you know, I bet he isn't keep Austin weird bumper sticker on. Then we meet Gabe. He's twenty eight. He was flipping a tire. He has a faith in God as a Christian. He was super hot, and I thought, do you like ladies? Totally? I thought the same thing, that thing to the whole the whole show. Why not have a why not have some guys in there to dake guys? Like? Why not? Who cares? That's what this is. Let me have Savannah on The Bad Girl. She's a yoga instructor. She's twenty five from Nashville, hoping to find that one special relationship. I mean, she's hot. She would go to Paradise, she would, she would take it far. And she tends bar at every bar on the West Side of Los Angeles for sure. And she had the perfect beachy blowout, the perfect She really is as much as Sheridan nailed the rocker look, she nailed yoga instructor, bartender, singer, songwriter in Nashville like and a girl who will hit you in the face with a broken ash tray if you dare cross her. And she's like she's she's been not there to make friends kind of a girl, you know, she's I don't care if I'm a bit so. I know. We've doing one public season, which has been fascinating so far because we're almost done and so far he's actually not been bad. And I've never watched the season. I don't know why everybody hates him yet, but rewatching it. But it's interesting. Jerry Trainer has been doing it with us, and he he likes and doesn't get mad at the I'm not here to make friends girls. He doesn't. He goes, why do they need to make friends? Which is a fascinating angles. Yeah. But rock by the way, wait till the very end, Wait till after the final rose. Okay, Okay, Okay, there's it's coming. He's about to be horrible. You just you kind of get the picture. Yeah, Trevor from Thousand Oaks has got a Golden retriever. He was an American idol and he was a construction worker. Now there's been some controversy about him. Uh, there was a video that Reality Steve posted which shows him. He's like, I'm about to go out. I'm gonna get so much pussy. I'm like and again, but he might have been he might about this show. Um it was I think it was him. He got sent to Reality Steve a few months ago, so I think it was him about to hit the town. But he could have been doing a bit like playing a gross guy, but so that people aren't sure if he's a total dog or okay guy. Okay, I don't like him. I I don't like him off the bat. So I kind of felt like it was fake because he kept being like, I'm gonna get pussy and then he kept dabbing, and it was just like it was a little too much that it felt like it maybe was fake. But I don't like him. E there he seems shady. Yeah. Um. So the first person into the house is Jamie. She's twenty one with apple cheek blush which I always wear and like myself. She's she's in Nashville, and she goes out to the fire pits and incomes a cute boy named Ryan who's twenty eight years old who works for like an ophthalmologist or something, and um, and they just hit it off like gangbusters. They're durable. It was actually a very cute parry and chatting and he He reminded me of like a young Tom Everett Scott and that thing you do. Yeah, he reminds me of the guy and you and the show you Oh, Penn Bagley. Yeah, yeah, he's cute and he actually seems like whereas I don't trust Trevor as far as I can throw him, matt Or Ryan he feels like, I'm sure after this air he'll turn into a nightmare, but like him walking into the mansion actually felt like a sweet, kind of nerdy guy with a nice voice. Yeah, yeah, I agree with that. I agree. I liked Ryan. He and he's definitely a little dorky. Yes, John may Yeah, he likes this John Mayor. Then Nat walks in. I don't know who Matt was, but he goes, he goes. I've never seen this show, but that guy, his name is Chris. I enjoyed this. Chris Helmsworth, Chris Chris Hansen. I kind of like that guy. He's kind of funny, which one let's say. Oh yeah, I liked him too. I liked him kind of a mohawk Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean I think I like him. I think I like we'll see if he's not a dick. But Jamie goes, I don't want to deal with drama, and then enter drama the yoga teacher, and she goes, if I'm just looking for a pretty face, let me go talk to the people of my modeling agency. I like Savannah because I know that she's going to be the bad girl of the show, so I'm ready. I'm ready to like if if you're a dude and you're at the bar and you hit on her while she's working, she's gonna slug you with a Jack Daniels bottle um. And then we have Ryan and Jamie are chatting. She goes, tell me a good memory from childhood. He's like, well, I had seizures and then I had brain surgery when I was six and it was awesome, and she goes, that's so great. He goes, yeah, I had a new Lisa on life, and she goes, I love that perspective. Anna, what did you think of that? Oh you know how those gosh darn brain surgery people be all sad and ship. I thought that was such a weird. It's like you could have been like, so woe is me? And it's like, I'm sure he was for a split second, but then probably like, I feel like there's hundreds of emotions you feel when you are in a situation like that. I don't know. It was such a bland over, like she just was like such a general response like good for you for survinding that and nothing. It was such a weird. It was such a weird response of a fun memory from childhood to lead with brain surgery, Like how do you reply to that if you've just met somebody Brendan? But it's it's also it was a weird question that I felt was given to her by a producer because she was probably I don't know, I don't know thing, you know what I mean. They're like, just try this was your fondest memory from childhood, and what's your first memory? They knew well, they also knew that he had the brain there. They knew that they knew it was from him. They want clearly like by I think the producers really wanted them to be a couple. Yes, they put her first and they put him first, and they I think they wrote it in their brain. And then she starts falling for Trevor, and then the producers like, Okay, then we're gonna send them to Capital wreck like and this is his song and his octave and he sounds like John Mayor and like okay, so now, and they're gonna make out on the roof like they wanted that. ABC wanted that pair And can I say, can I give you my theory on this, because this is my theory for the whole show, Like if they're really doing their jobs, they kind of have to pair the people by genre, like who can actually perform well together? Rob you would would you agree as a musician? Just can't take like Nirvana girl and Barth Brooks guy and shove them together and expect like something decent to happen. So art into your point. I felt like if they did their due diligence and they looked into the kind of music that these kids can create, they had to have a leaderboard of matchups that they would hope would happen. Am I wrong about that? No? No, I mean absolutely. It just show is gonna work. You've got to do that. And that's why I'm curious where it's going because it looks like it's going to turn into American Idol. It looks like, did you guys watch that show in excess? Yes, most seasons it was great and the way they filmed these concerts felt kind of like Rocks with Dave Navarro, Yeah, and Carmen Electra right, like it's so good. But now we've got like Rita Wilson and Joe Joe and she and Jason Mraz and Jason mraz um. So then um we have Rudy shows up. She's kind of fun. She's gonna be fun entertaining TV. She goes, I feel like I'm in love all the time I've dated all of l A. She's twenty four, She's entertaining. She's kind of a fun mess. She would make great Paradise TV, like she probably and like who knows if she would stumble into a fun, weird relationship like she seems like a good time. She reminds me of Dana, of Dana and Julia. I said that to Julia as we were watching. She reminds me of Data. It's the same energy where you come into the room and you take it over and you yeah, you and you make people do shots. I didn't even think she was a musician. I felt like she sort of stumbled into the cast. Well. She was also authentic too, like she like her. She felt like a real girl. Was kind of self deprecating, who liked a party and like, you know, and it was fun rob. What's her name Rudy Rudy? Um so then so then it's and then Trevor walks in, and as soon as Joe Trevor walks in, Jamie is like, like, I'm sorry, Ryan, I ought to go talk to Trevor, and uh, it is so confusing. She does not know what to do. Um, Rudy starts talking to Matt. They're very cute together, and uh, he gives her his coat when she's cold outside, and um, somebody, I can't remember it was Rudy. It was probably Jamie because she seems to be their lead, like she seems to be number one on the call sheet. But Jab goes, I don't want to deal with any dramas, drama stars or douchebags. And then in walks Michael, the douchebag who's so annoying, and he starts singing his stupid song. He's got his dumb hair, Brendan Michael Todd give me a review, could not wait. He's worse than the Wa Boom guy. I am me had I had I been a p A on that on that shoot, I would have wanted to light him on fire. He's your guy, he's your villain for this episode. I knew that he would be eliminated. You can't keep that guy around. He drove me crazy every time he was on camera. Robuh, it looks like above everything else, he's complete. Toldspec looks like there's been and been some work done to his face too. He was like, I like your lips. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I can. He's a mess. He's a Oh I see okay, wait, Katie was just really she just sent us yeah, okay, overy quick. It saysn't of Michael Todd. His single Hot Touch has over a hundred thousand spins on Spotify. Oh god, damn, it is that right? Since last night? Probably? I know this is his bio on the thing I just sent you guys. It's course, of course, it's called hot Touch. What by the way, looking at this and I know I'm jumping ahead, But there was like Danny, Danny got a rose. He didn't say one thing. I don't think we even met Danny. No, there were a couple of people that we didn't really meet at all. I look at Michael Todd, looks like he could be like my agent. But then he got like a leather coat and like spiked his hair, and I feel like he'd be like, yeah, I work in packaging and innovative, you know what I mean, Like, oh, he's so terrible. So then so then he starts talking to Savannah and he goes, I like your lips, and she's like uh huh, and he starts leaning in, and then she had to dodge the kiss our one. His move I like your lips was just about the grossest. And if somebody came at you with I like your lips, like Michael Todd, like, how would you respond to that same way Savannah it, which is like thank you, okay, thank you, okay, thank you, and then it was absurd. And then and then he goes, uh, do you like it? Was his follow up. He was so gross the lean in. The lean in was was epic. It was an unbelievable leaning. Fully expected to get kiss back. He did. He's such a psycho, he's such so then Russell shows up in his leather jacket. I'm not even sure who Russell it. Russell was a p a. I guarantee you that they were short one person. And then they just gave a jacket to a p A and said get in there. We'll cut you later tonight. Russell's here, right, Russell's they didn't have it. You're right. He was nineteen or twenty years old. Yeah, but he did look like the one alternative music guy to me, to him and Mel yes, absolute, but I still I still get dead. He was a Julia shows up, she's got a big smile, very cute, and then he comes in and again their analogies are off. Here comes Chris Harrison and he's like, well, are you guys ready to be the next James Taylor and Carly Simon or Beyonce and jay Z. It's like she wrote allegedly like you're so vain about James, like and like jay Z she won't lemonade because he was cheating. Like there's like these are there's even though there our players, these are still like there's been Rocky Rhodes and some of these, but also Chris Harrison, James Taylor and Carly Simon. That was literally seventy five years ago. Yeah, I didn't tell her car Simon and then jay Z and Beyonce like those are how about like those are the those are the two couples. That's an honest two p's a couple. Yeah, no, okay, so that he peels off. I don't think we see Chris Harrison again. And still, for the record, I don't. I got the feeling for me and that Heat doesn't quite know what the show is either. I know he was like, do I get an extra paycheck for this? This isn't just like in my overall Yeah he does, oh yeah, oh yeah. I also realized halfway through the show last night that this is the equivalent of the International Olympics batchelor that we had last year. Yes, this is Winter Games game, this is frowly Winter Games, and so far I was really excited about Winter Games because I love winter, I love snow, I love Vermont. I loved the look of the little like in that they were in and they had no Olympics and there was no actual sporting events. I think this one will be more fun. Mhm um. Before we continue, I'm going to run and use the ladies room. I don't know about you, but things again so hot. I think I gotta take Oh look at what Rob just did? Who were you in? What band are you in? Rob? The Replacements man's that, dude, that's amazing, well done. I don't know how to do the background. Um So now we learn the lay of the land and eat. So each week there's gonna be dates. And right now there's eight women and twelve men. Four guys are going home. Um So Sheridan steals Julia and they actually like a very real conversation. He said, what do you do besides music? And she says, I run my own nonprofit. I had cystic fibrosis. It's music therapy for children's hospital. And uh, statistic fibrosis isn't and you can die release when the fluid goes into your lungs and like that's like the sheer fact that she's a singer is amazing and like like that's a scary, scary thing. She she was a bright, sparkly like she kind of reminded me of a young renais Elwigger and like, uh, Jerry Maguire, she's so cute. I can see that. Brendan, what did you think? What were you thinking about Julia? Well, I oddly he shared an actually sort of won me. I was I don't want to use the word one me, but he was more real, he was more real and that felt organic, and uh, I liked it. I like that pairing me too. She seems sweet. I know. I looked at him and I thought, this is a he's so self conscious in his styling. And then he was a very sweet guy. And he was also very insecure, like he kept saying like, why would anybody want me to look at all these good looking guys? Like? And I found him very very charming. Yeah, I agree, he's he's kind of a nerd in the best possible ways. It's kind of a nerdy guy. Um. Then she got stolen away by the Marinean Brandon, and then she got a kiss from him really fast. What did you think of that? Rock? He kind of grosses me out a little bit. Um. Maybe it's just that he, you know, because of his past. I don't know, but I just don't trust him. Uh. Who who tried to kiss and did not achieve it? Besides the guy with the butt the lips? Um, Rudy, Rudy tried to get a the the guy who came in and didn't know who Chris Harrison was right, Yes, Matt, Yeah, he tried to get a kiss and it didn't work. Um. Yes, so yes, they were so Rudy and Matt go into the hot tub and um, he's like, if you want to hit the hot tub and then um, so they're all into it. And then meanwhile, the really gross guy, Michael Todd is talking to somebody and tries to get her to go to the hot tub, and she like lied to him and was like, I need to go find the restroom, like basically Savannah Savannah. I was like, I don't think it was Savannah. I think it was. I think it was brief. It was like I need to go. Oh, you're right, you're right, You're great. So then Rudy and Matt going the hot tub, and but like they were really flirting and they really liked each other. And he was like, well you can tell the chemistry from a kiss, and then she was like like you could tell she liked him, but it was like not yet, like I know, I don't want to do it yet, and but they felt like they were a pair. Brendan, can I want to say this that I did a little looking, um, you know, just at the at the website where they had the cast, because I've had this up the whole time. Um. Matt's genre of music is neo soul. Wait a minute, because they have their photos on the main website and then underneath their age lists everyone's genre of music. There's more people. There's more people in their thirties, by the way, which is exciting absolutely, but there's a lot of pop pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, popo, country pop, neo soul. I didn't read that at all. I don't know what that is, what soul is, what is neo soul? It's um, it's soul. That's just more neo great, it's in soul. He's from Incino and I saw that too, so I think in California. Yeah, the thirty on thirty wine bar on Ventura and oh my god. So then um uh so that he goes. He was like, do you judge a person on how they kiss? Yes? I do. And then she was like, well, I'm not kissing it yet. Um So. Then Jamie has been meanwhile talking of Trevor and Ryan and she's having the best time. It's like her dream day. She's having the greatest time ever. So she asks, um, Ryan what his dream date is and he says, I'd like to go to Bora Bora for a week. Um and then she she says, you are definitely one of my favorites. And then they kiss, kissing the hot tub. Yeah, yeah, it's good, good action, great TV. Oh no, is that Trevor. That was Trevor. That was Trevor. That was Trevor. They kiss in the hot tub. They have good physical chemistry. You can see she likes kissing him. Um, and she's like Trevor and I this is so much in comment. Um. Well. And then meanwhile, sweet Ryan is upstairs playing the piano. And Ryan actually seems like he has some musical talent. Can I say something on that note exactly? Um? And I think I want to get Rob's take on this too as a musician. If I was producing the show Brendan Smith, Yeah, I want actually had people playing stuff almost right off the bat. Do you know what I'm saying? I like, if we're musicians, I would want to see what other people do first, rather than talk to them around the hot tub or talk to them on the benches, do you know what I mean? And that that I liked Ryan playing and I wish that more people had started playing music earlier in the show than that. Thought about this, and I was wondering if it was a licensing issue unless it was somebody's own song. If it was a financial like, you can't, I bet they all have their own Yeah, totally understood, but with I guarantee you that everyone had their own song and they had to sign away the rights to those songs to Mickey. If they're going to perform them on the show, yeah you are. But but you can just pick up a guitar and just start playing like Ryan was playing piano, which I thought. I actually thought that was cool. I wanted to see more of what people were bringing to the table musically. That's my only point. I agree. I think if they did the sort of thing where they each had to play like a verse in a chorus of a song that they have, you know, right off the bat, almost make it more like American Idol. And then it's like American Idol that we go home with him and we see what happens at the hotel that night. Oh you know what I mean? That might be more interesting because people get a talent is an aphrodisiact. So if it's somebody you might not normally notice, kill it and you're like and if if if the ugly guy is awesome at piano because half the rock stars out there are ugly dudes. Yeah yeah, but if if the ugly guys like the best singer and the best piano player in the house, all of a sudden, he's like whoa. I felt like when I saw Ryan, who's adorable, But I feel like when I saw him singing on the date, he got more interesting to me because I was like, oh, maybe boy can sing. He's got a great and that when he started singing, it really made him look like a character on a see W show. Oh god, yeah, they should cast him on Riverdale? Uses it for Anna? What do you think? Um? They're all so funny. I like this show a lot. Everyone is so they're like corny in the perfect way. Yet they're like great singers. You're like okay, Like I I like Katie was saying, like everyone has their own thing where you're like, okay, that's a character. I was just looking at the cast page. And I also think they're like genres are funny, like one girl's like a musical theater. Some guys like American folk pop, and it's like, what does any what does any of this mean? I don't know. I also do feel like you were saying you can't brandan you were saying, you can't bring two different people who different or seeing different genres and put them in a room. But like, isn't the whole idea, Like, if you're that great of a musician, you can adapt and work with it. Like I thought it was cool to see Jamie and Ryan try and figure out that John Mayer's song together because she's like, I don't sing icing country pop or whatever? Her which country pop? I don't even know what that means. Um country pop is top forty country that I have a different I have a different thought. I have a different thought about that. But okay, So Ryan gets a date card and he picks Jamie and they go to Capitol Records and they go meet with a guy named Jane who produced the song Gravity, And I thought Ryan was so adorable. He goes, I feel like a school girl. I mean, that's a great date if you're a singer songwriter and you get to go walk in and you're walking to the the iconic rock and roll like dream Stars Lauren like the building. And then if you're a real music fan and you know who these musicians are and these are the guys and the producer like that was a cool date, and clearly they knew as as I did. Think they wanted them to fall in love. This was probably his best song. I My theory was for her. I felt like she didn't know the song that well and was trying to be nice about oh, trying to figure out our genres when maybe she wasn't as familiar with it. Rob, what do you think? I mean, I certainly that I put that on her as well, because that's what I would have been like. I would have been like, I don't actually don't know this song, and then the dude was like, hey, don't you love it in the second first the way he does that, And she's like I would have been the same way. But I don't know if she did or not. She pulled it off in the end when they recorded it, she ya done of good? Yeah right, it was. It was so a date set up for him, right. It's like his favorite song, a song in his range. He knew the producer right away, He's like, oh my god, and the guitar. He seemed to know the musicians. I mean, I think ABC thinks he's hute as a button. He looks like he's eleven years old. America. Young girls and older girls, all of them are gonna have crushes on him. And he can He's talented, he can play the guitar, he can play the piano, he's got a great voice. And I think they wanted her to like be like watching him sing, just feel like this is I put a ring on it. I'm gonna marry this guy. Brendan, Yeah, I agree. And going back to Jamie's performance during that whole sort of set piece, I felt like she was nervous too, because it was go time and being in the Capitol studio with a real producer, you know, and she might with a song she might not know well like he might. He may be auditioned with this song. This might be his song that he auditioned with, and that's gonna put her in a weird spot too. So I I gave her a little bit of leeway there because that's a tough that's a tough, uh performance to pull off right off the bat in the show. I agree, But I think she nailed it. That's what I knew. I was like, she's good because she fucking nailed it. Coming in that nervous and being like, I don't know what's I don't sing like this, And then I thought it was perfect. It was absolutely I was like, wow, this is a great song, even though I was Okay, Katie, Katie, what did you think? I loved it, Katie. I thought it was a great date. I thought he had a fantastic voice. But I think you're right she didn't know the song, or maybe she was nervous and couldn't remember it. I don't know why didn't give her some headphones to be like, listen to the song. Um, that would have been nice. They might have. It was such like a perfect date for the two of them, and I thought she she really ended up doing a good job. And he is cute. He's like he's like a little Shawn Mendez, you know, smug he is. He is exactly like Shawn Mendez. And I really, I mean, it's very clear the show likes him, and he he seems like a nice guy like he actually he doesn't seem like a guy. He seems like a girl. Sweetie pie. I was thought his I thought his little suit was cute like the opening like I was like, I I thought his Lane of the Highway J. J. Marien would have loved dry and that her Greg, My mom would have been all over Ryan, I know, Oh my god, to make her so happy that you were jealous, jealous and the best thing that's happened to j j um So then Matt, oh my, no, she would all she loved wrong. She wanted to date Rob Okay. So then um so then uh meanwhile back at the ranch, um So, yes, we watched, We watched Jamie on the date she goes. He makes me feel comfortable and safe, like he took care of me. He made sure like he really may wanted to make her feel comfortable in the arranging. If you notice, at first he had it where she would start singing, and then when they actually finally did it, he started but like I felt as though he was really trying to protect her. Um and then they when they go up to the roof at like sunset on the Capitol Records Building and they're kissing on the roof, I mean, ABC pulled out all stops, like I defy you to fall in love. Brendan. Yeah, I totally agree that that's exactly what they were going for. I mean, that was the couple that you were supposed to root for right off the bat. I know, but after all that, I mean not to skip ahead, but after all that, she disc is him at the end of the night, physics and hotter, and Trevor's hotter than Ryan. Ryan's too nice, you know, it's like people always pay like Ryan's too much of a sure thing. He's not flirting with anything like. So then we have Brie and Chris. Um, she goes, which one is Brio? Oh yes, yes, okay, they were cute, and she says, do you pinky promise that you'll sing me a song? Um. Trevor is jealous that Jamie is on a date because he knows that they're getting closer emotionally, and um, this is where I feel Christmas maybe uh gay, Yeah, yeah, there was so much that the pinky swear and then and then he but then he was like, I've just always been so into my music. I really never thought about, like, you know, dating like this has always been something sort of been the way. Yeah, oftentimes people do music so they could get late, you know. Yeah, I agree with you. There was a few times I was like, uh, huh, I've never had it like a guy pinky promised something with me. No, not so much, but you know, and I you know, I like, you said, how great would it have been if he was gay? And he looks up with another guy like bachelor. You know, I feel like it's time, like that would be great, that would be great. Um, so then we have so then what's his name? Gets a date card? Um? What's his name? With the mohawkat this new soul singer that gets a date card? And he pulled Rudy aside, and Matt the neo the neo soul from Encino and he pulls Rudy aside, and there's a very clear miscommunication that happens because he asked her like, what do you like to do on a date? And she was like, um, basically like I would make us food or whatever, but like it sounds like a generic like what do you like to do on a date? And what she and then she was like, well, I would love to go on a date with you, and then um he he picks mel and she Rudy becomes enraged because in her brain he just asked her out. I didn't see him ask her out. I saw like, what kind of a thing do you like to do on a date? Brendan? What did you say? Well? I think that Matt was probably a little stung from not being able to make out with Rudy earlier. So you know, I thought that was fair to uh to choose mil because Mel for me, is the most silver like of all the contestants, so I have high hopes for her. She's at piet and her genre of music is indie rock. Like she's our our, our, our hope, Brendan. She's she's really cute and she kind of reminds me of Lori and Aaron and uh uh Jerry's girlfriend Charlene a little bit. She's like rock and roll Charlene Mel. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She works at four a John Sunset, and you know she's she'll be at the Echo on Sunday early on in the evening with her band. She's cute. So they go to a backyard music concert where the playing White Teas are playing. I mean to me, that was a hat on a hat. It's like, you have a show about up becoming musicians. We don't need to do the upcoming musician thing. I know, Playing My Teas have been around forever. They had like one hit wonder thing. But come on, we don't come on this show. We don't need to do that. On this show. No, we we need to see another day, Like, well, they couldn't afford another song. I think the music rights are so expensive. They probably couldn't afford another song, although they paid for the plain white t song, So why don't they They can get around that if they want, because they just buy stuff out right, you know, they'll for on the cheap for something they're not paying the contestants. Yeah, they're not paying. They're right, You're absolutely right, and they probably paid. They had to pay for the plain white tea song. So why not just pick a song and have them go do a song. We want to see people having chemistry through music, not through watching music. Okay, So then um um, somebody's crying in the backyard. Oh, Rudy's crying in the backyard, going what did I do wrong? What did I do wrong? It's like, well, you didn't make out with a guy, you know, and you didn't tell him the next because she wanted to pull him aside and be like hey, I like you and like kind of like let them know, but she didn't do that. Sheridan walks up while Julia is kissing bald Josh. But he still has confidence and he pulls her aside and uh, he wants to sing a song for her. Now, Brendan, to your point, when I see people singing the songs, it does remind me of Jed, and I think, Oh, they're just here because they want to get their track out and get people to go on Spotify and listen to their song. Um. So like, on the one hand, yes, it's nice to see what they do, and on the other hand, it feels a little insince here. What and then he wants her to help him finish the song she never got to sing, and then they kissed. What did you I was a little bit like I didn't love Sheridan just performing for her. Well, Julia would have told you that. I was on the couch just cringing and covering my eyes in my ears because that music gets in inside of me and starts to tear me apart. I can't I I my ears start to bleed when I hear that kind of stuff. So this show is going to be very difficult through Rob Rob, what did you think? Yeah, that was really hard. It was it was hard. I couldn't help but think that he wrote it years earlier, and he was pretending like he just wrote it for her that night. It just it didn't she I was surprised at how into it she was, you know, yeah, uh for me. When Trevor does it a little bit later in the episode, that's where I was like, I've had enough of it. Like Trevor plays one later and I was like, I was by that point, I'm tired. I feel like everyone's tired from here and there. Because when we have a whole bunch of songwriters like hear my song, here, hear my song. The thing that's the thing, Brendon like, if we have to hear everybody's song, then you already's freaking song. Well, I I just want people to jam or do something a little bit because I because I can't hear the syrupy. When I look into your eyes, it made me realize that I love those eyes. You know. It's just just it's just I don't know the size. I don't know where they learned how to play this fucking the template. We gave you a Zeppelin, a deep purple and black Sabbath, and you rechecked in it. People, God damn it. Uh yeah, I mean we're talking to we're talking about like just a verse and a chorus of something I just I can't I can't do this, elongated like two verses before we even go into a chorus. Hey, hey, beautiful girl walking by in the beautiful world. You can't together? Are you gonna take a break? Bones zone? Let's get in the bone zone? Gus? Hello back? Okay, So so he kisses her. We have Sheridan goes in for a kiss. Um. Mel meanwhile outside talking to Gabe tearing up using a pillow as a tissue, which I loved, Rob did you enjoy that? Always love a good pillow as a tissue. I do like Mel though. I like Mel like she's one of my she's one of my faves. Um, Rudy starts talking to Meanwhile, Matt comes back. It feels like he didn't really have a ton of chemistry with Mel and uh. He sees Rudy and he goes, wow, you look so good. She was like, I want to talk to you, dude. She's like, um, she goes, look, you said to me, I'm taking you on a date. And I'm thinking that felt like a lot. You know, I was just crying in the thing. He was like, don't cry, don't cry, And there was a big miscommunication. I don't think he asked her out on a date. I think she's a little hammer time. I was a little bummed at how crazy she was about handling it, because I felt like they still could have had a chance for chemistry, but she was so aggro about it. Brendan, what did you think about her confrontation? It was? It just felt like it felt like she was trying to play reality show drama. That's it. I mean, we're we're all here on the first day people, you know, but the producers need that because it it's it is the Bachelor franchise, so there has to be a little bit of drama right now, and it just wasn't. It was the stakes were so low for me that I did not care. I agree. I agree with that. Here's a question. Do you get the feeling that I get the feeling that that many of these contestants are people who who are auditioned to be on The Bachelor and happen to say that they're songwriters. And then maybe a couple of them, like the guy who didn't know Chris Harrison, was just applied for this. But I feel like some of them, Savanna, Yeah, Yeah, the ones that I like that theory that I like that theory because Julius Julia is definitely a bachelor contestants Savannah for sure, Jamie, Um, oh yeah, yeah, yeah sure, Julia looks older than seven. Yeah we said that. Why. I think Julius said forty one. Yeah, like a really hot forty one. I'm really hot. Um so then um so then he was like so then meanwhile he peels away and he goes, whoa, I just went twelve rounds with Mike Tyson and now she's probably trash and Rudy's trash and meet all the ladies and she is. She's like, can you believe it? He asked me on a day he didn't take me on the day. Um, He's like, well, I'm not going to get a rose. And then, um, the gross guy, Michael Todd, he's trying. He starts talking to Rudy and she starts twerking in her short romper and what did you think of that? Um? Michael Todd is the funniest person to exists. And the fact that every five minutes he's like, oh wait, let me sing you my jamn and then it's like okay, but I do feel she was kind of like trying to get back at Matt a little by hanging out with Michael Todd, which is not the greatest thing to because Michael Todd. I mean, if there's eight women and twelve guys too, you're in the pole position. There's a lot of other guys. They're just gonna talk to anyone, literally, anyone. Yeah. I got Brendan's comparison to Wa Boom is very, very on point, really good comparing um. So then Trevor pulls Jamie aside. He's like, look, man, and I think he's sort of h he's a singer songwriter. I've compared to this guy before, but I'm gonna do it again. He's singer songwriter Brian Callen back in the day because he looked like um. He pulls Jamie aside. He's like, I'm not here to add more pressure to you, and then she goes she stutters and goes, I like, I like, I like, I feel very comfortable around you. And he's like, she was, wow, I can't tell what you're thinking. You make me nervous, and then he goes, can I play a song? Oh god, no, it was just it was just like I just wrote down so many Jeds. There were so many Jeds. It was so many, so many can we call this episode so many Jeds? And yeah, and just put eight eight Jed's in there, like in the Uh you could put him in his stripper, his his national stripper cowboy booth thing with their guitars. It was just awful. And I felt like she was even bored with that song, like it wasn't a good song. It wasn't a good song. But then they kissed. She has chemistry with them, and then she just starts sobbing. She's hammer time. It's like six in the morning. She's in a red dress. She goes some times to the other gal in the red dress. I'm confused, and I'm trusting me a little bit. All I've made a mistake before, and I want to make the wrong decision, but I always do. Brendon snore, don't. I don't like Trevor, so I I don't like Trevor, I don't like the music. So this was I think. I got up and went and got some French onion dip and some tato chips and just stuff my face for about four minutes. And then when Julia waved like, oh no, he's gone, I came right back. So then Chris Hurston comes out and he goes, all right, ladies, may just these words of advice. Listen to your heart. Rob. I just, I mean, this is the point where I was like, oh, he doesn't know what's going on here either. I guarantee you to your point, Rob, I guarantee you. He didn't have to do anything but just show up on set, and he probably has some of the people that he enjoys writing stuff for him. He just has to walk in, look at the thing, say a couple of lines, go have a cocktail and get the funk out of there. Yeah, talk about James Taylor and Carly Simon, and then tell people to listen to their heart. It's funny, funny you know that since Captain and to Neil, you're gonna be like George and Grazie. Um. So then Ryan goes, well, I put all my eggs in one basket, and so it's either gonna be I'm either gonna I'm gonna either going home with DAMMI, or it's gonna be nothing and loan the Hall dumb dumb picks Trevor. I love being around Trevor. I just and sweet Rudy, Hey, Ryan's She said, who do I see myself falling for? And then uh, Michael Todd got caught. Um, were there any other pairings that were surprising to you? Well, it felt a little bit like the producers were like, well, you gotta keep you gotta keep Bryan. And then so she picked Ryan because I felt a little bit I was surprised. We're not gonna get to hear Russell with the leather shack at the p A with the leather jack. If we're not going to get to hear him, gone, just gone. And I really hope that Michael Todd, as much as he's just the dot of douchebags, I hope that he shows up on on on the beach. Oh my god, wouldn't that be wouldn't that just be a present everybody? Hopefully he'll be playing in Ireland's thirty two in the Valley when the pandemic is over. Jocks are daily is in Culver City. We'll find him in Los Angeles, right, You're absolutely right, and it'll be very hard to find him. No. Um, okay, so will you help us pick the tweet of the week. We have Tweets of the week again, guys. All right, let's see. Um this is from our girls Cheyenne Constant at Trixie Firecracker. So Jed slash Trevor is a possible cheater. My theory that is that Trevor is actually Jed stands. You can't get one over me pre covid. I stayed home watching hours of Lifetime and the I D channel. I know it's still in identity. When I see one, she's convinced that Trevor is actually Jet Yeah, um, okay, two point oh at Shelley two point oh? What did we do to deserve? A love triangle between a girl and two guys who sang John Mayor covers? Oh? Was that second song and John Mayor cover? Were you serious? So those were two John Mayer's sons, Katie, Yeah, I forget what song I was, but that was a John Mayer song. Oh my god, because I thought that was funny and I was wondering if maybe if they like got a two for one deal from John what you did mean to deserve? And love? Til guys to say John Mayer covers John is the only singer in the world. Oh my god.

Can we talk about all the ads for the Claire saying, oh my god, you guys, it's just to me it first of all the fact that they're they're still like that, because in my mind, I was like, Wow, I'm watching this now, this is going on right now, they're going, please somebody apply for this season. Jerry has never experienced Claire, and he's watching one us and he this was her six years ago, so this was her at her freshest. He hates her. He cannot. Well, that just shows you how bad the current crop of possible you're telling me, in the past six years, there's not anybody that's availed. Oh yeah, Tia would have been great. We we wanted Tea to be the bachelorette. They didn't give he was such a drip with Colton. But you know, well what Colton was a drip? Um? Okay, here we go. We're gonna just gonna we have to narrow down to our final two. I'm gonna narrow down to two point oh at Shelly two point oh? What do we do to deserve a love triangle between a girl and two guys?

We really appreciate it. Thank you so much for emailing us. Here's an email we just got from Lexi Rep hi Arden. I just pre ordered your book. I can't wait for it to come out. Well, thank you, Alexi I. You're in the running and I appreciate you sending that in. Thanks for doing the Lord's work in these hard times. I love that you're going back and watching one Poblo season. He sucks, but it was great TV. I myself cannot commit to rewatching that ship show, but I love reliving it through you and Laurie, who has the best memory. Laurie is an amazing savant. Side note, I watched Listen to Your Heart last night, and this may be the Quarantine talking, but I think it's my favorite iteration so far. I felt like the people were a little more real than the regular Bachelor. Also, Chris Harrison comparing it to A Star's War and literally had me laughing so hard. Did they not watch the end of the movie. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the pod. I mean I kept thinking that Anna too. I just kept thinking, like I saw the end of the movie. I mean, what did you think. Yeah, I was like, I guess that we're just going to ignore the fact that he had a drinking problem and was clearly not doing well and needed help. But that was kind of being ignored because artest like, Okay, guess we're ignoring it. All cool, h we got we got a really nice email from a thrifty green high Art and a group crew. She sent in a receipt for her book. Thank you so much for order it cannot wait to read it. She wrote, I'm in full support of the party at JJ's house. I will find a way to make it there. These left coast folks don't know what a real New England party is. Clammed Sam Adams, maple syrup, I'm getting horny already, keep up the lords or Gabby Green. Can I just say how happy amazing that the word horny is like entered so many of our emails in the vernacular, like, if nothing else in my life, I've put the word to horny in as a regular mode of speech. And how much does it please you to hear people talking about being horn It's great. It's actually hurt me as well, because I've said things at work and realized I can only say that on will you accept this Rose and she'll not say bone zone when I'm talking about people having sex. All right, we'll do one more email. This is from Cynthia Shields. My favorite thing in the world right now for us, I would like to say I was so excited that I listened to the almost famous podcast and realized art and was their guest for the episode. It was always one of my favorite people to see on the Chelsea Lately round Table, and I love knowing she's a fellow Bachelor super fan and well, I'm totally straight. I happy to think Paget Broster, Paget Rooster is a goddess and I that she sucked into this madness too. I started listening to the podcast immediately, and I've now gone back to listen to Peter's entire season as well as Colton and Hannah by season. I really enjoyed listening to the recaps of one public season. Uh just I love listen to your podcast. Thanks for bringing join difficult times. Thank you for making me laugh hystorically on a regular basis when it's kind of hard to find the funny in the world these days. Well, I so appreciate you listening to Cynthia's shields. Uh.
