Starting point is 00:03:45 Whoa. I will. Congrats to you, Joe. Thank you. It's a competition show. Yeah, it's the greatest reality star of all time is the concept. So it's like all reality stars. Tasha's on it as well from Bachelor.
Starting point is 00:03:58 How fun. How fun. And you guys have an anniversary coming up. So congratulations. Thank you. Yeah. You know what's crazy is this June will be three years since we did Paradise. So we met on June 7th, which was the first day of filming.
Starting point is 00:04:13 And then we got engaged on, oh, shoot, I always forget this date. I think it was June 26. Yeah. I think it was. Did you know? Did you know right away? How'd you know? That he was the one?
Starting point is 00:04:24 Yeah. Um, I don't, I didn't know right away, but I was like, definitely, like, only eyes for him pretty early on, like, very drawn to him. Like, so yeah. What about you, Joe? Joe, you're being silent. Yeah. Well, how do you know, Joe? How did I know?
Starting point is 00:04:49 That's a good question. I don't know if there's like a. We haven't been asked that in a while. That was not supposed to be a hard question. That was supposed to be just a real. It will real throw it to an easy one there. You know what? I think I was about, I mean, I knew I was attracted to her and really liked her, like, immediately.
Starting point is 00:05:05 And then I think it was probably, it was probably about two weeks in to where I was like, we also vibe really well together. Like, we mesh well. We're, we're, we're, we're, yeah. Yeah, we're very compatible. And then everything just kept getting better and better. Like, the relationship. Yeah, the relationship and just how I felt.
Starting point is 00:05:26 about her just kept growing and growing and that's when I was like well at this rate yeah this is going to work at this right we're going to be married I don't know if it was like love at first sight I don't know if but like it was definitely connection at first sight like I can still remember
Starting point is 00:05:42 like seeing him for the first time and like our first conversation like feeling like electric yeah I do I do think in an atmosphere like Bachelor in Paradise love at first sight I don't even know if that like exists there because everyone kind of knows everyone even if it's just through like word
Starting point is 00:06:01 of mouth like heard of this person yeah yeah yeah it's not like totally different than bachelor it is it is but i have a question so you guys are you know relatively newly married compared to you know how long sus and i were married so i want to know what do you think will keep your spark alive as as your relationship matures long-term relationships how are you going to do it oh that's a good question um i'm a very spontaneous person and i plan on always being that way and i feel like that is one one way for sure yeah i do love that about joe is like he'll be like let's let's do this let's go here all of a sudden i do think that's not as much my personality but i do like i'm an activity person so it does keep things exciting and i also just think like keep dating
Starting point is 00:06:50 each other like we like to do new things together make new memories like push ourselves to, you know, even if it's just like, let's go try this new restaurant tonight and, yeah, it keeps it fun and developing and exciting. I don't know. Just stay spontaneous because it adds a lot of life. Yeah. And as you're together longer, it gets a little more difficult to do that. So I love that you say spontaneous because if you do that, your relationship will keep growing and evolving. I saw this thing on an Instagram that was like, you have to hug for eight seconds a day. for like a serotonin release or like a some sort of like dopamine hit or something and then kiss for six seconds a day and that like Susan you and I are screwed there's a chemical release from that the universe hugs me every day yeah and what are you kissing for eight seconds I want to hear about
Starting point is 00:07:46 that too so we have some fan advice questions can we play with you guys yeah let's do it okay Sophia wrote, Hi, Golden Hour family. My fiance, Brett and I are getting married in July, and we are so excited. Something has come up that I need your advice on because I'm truly not sure what to do. My parents got divorced six years ago and my dad has a partner. He's been dating for two years. Now my mom wants to bring her new boyfriend of the month of one month to the wedding. we have strict long-term partners only for plus ones at our wedding. My fiancé and I still haven't met this guy. She's dating.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Wow. But my mom is saying how hard it would be for her to have to be at our wedding without a date, especially with my dad and his girlfriend there. I just feel weird inviting someone we've never met. And even if we meet him in the next month, I don't want this man in our photos. Who knows how long he'll be. be around. It sort of feels like my mom just found a guy because she wanted a date to the wedding. Do you think we should invite him to appease my mom or do you think we should stick to our long-term
Starting point is 00:09:04 partner's only policy even for her? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you. Love you guys and your podcast. Ouch. Oh, I have something to say. Okay, Joe, you're on. You fucking let up, it's your mom. You let her bring whoever. Really? Yeah. It's your mother. mother. It's not your friend. It's not your, it's not your, it's not your aunt. It's not your uncle. It is your, it's the person that birthed you. You let her bring whoever she wants. If she wants to feel comfortable, because that's going to make her feel comfortable, you let her. And you don't have. He doesn't have to be in the pictures. He doesn't have to be in the photos. No, dude. Stay over there. You can be in one. Get out of you. I don't know how to have. Also, for a wedding, you take 1,500 to 2,000 photos. If he's in 20 of them, so be it. Who really, who cares like that to me that's where i stand i wrote this so interesting i wrote this question well no this actually susan this happened to me you guys my daughter got married uh two and a half years ago and um i wanted to bring a date because i just always feel like a third wheel and she absolutely said no um and i had to go by myself and my husband passed away and it was it was really hard for me but at the
Starting point is 00:10:20 of the day, it was her wedding. And I felt like I had to, you know, respect her wishes for her wedding. And it was hard. I will say it was hard, but I just kept telling myself, this is her special day. She gets to do what she wants. Then my son got married three months ago, and Susan officiated that wedding. She brought me. Yeah, Susan was my date for that. But my son was exactly the opposite. Mom. Bring whoever you want. Bring a date. So I've lived at both sides.
Starting point is 00:10:55 My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly, and now I'm seriously suspicious. Wait a minute, Sam. Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit. Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes,
Starting point is 00:11:07 my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone. Now, hold up. Isn't that against school policy?
Starting point is 00:11:19 That sounds totally inappropriate. Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor, and they're the same age. And it's even more likely that they're cheating. He insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him? Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's boyfriend really cheated with his professor or not? To hear the explosive finale, listen to the OK Storytime podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.
Starting point is 00:11:45 I'm Jemail Hill, host to the Sports and Politics Podcasts Politics. And on the latest episode of Politics, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries joins me for a candid conversation about the state of the Democratic Party. What do Republicans say to you privately that they won't say publicly? Many of them are in fear of their political lives. And that's been part of the challenge. But we continue to say to them, you were elected to defend your constituents, to stand up for your constituents. And there's life after Congress. And you should be willing to actually want to be able to look back on your time in the House of Representatives
Starting point is 00:12:20 knowing that you can keep your head held high because you did the right thing. Donald Trump is gone in three and a half years. But their legacy or their failure to stand up to the extremism and the unprecedented assault on America as we know it will be with them forever. Make sure to listen to Spolitics on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Hi, my name is Enya Humanzor. And I'm Drew Phillips. And we run a podcast called Emergency Intercom.
Starting point is 00:12:53 If you're a crime junkie and you love crimes, we're not the podcast for you. But if you have unmedicated ADHD... Oh my God, perfect. And want to hear people with mental illness, psychobabble. Yes, yes. Then Emergency Intercom is the podcast for you. Open your free IHeartRadio app. Search Emergency Intercom.
Starting point is 00:13:14 And listen now. How about you, Serena? You know what? Your answer threw me off just because I wasn't expecting that from you. But I guess it does make sense. That is kind of your personality. And you are very like, like you have a lot of respect for your parents and you always want them to be comfortable and taken care of, which is an amazing quality.
Starting point is 00:13:40 I think an alternative is like, does she have a. best friend that you know that maybe you grew up with that it's like hey mom i don't know this guy i'm not super comfortable with you bringing him but like you could totally bring so and so as like you're plus one and like we know them and we maybe feel a little more comfortable having them there but yeah you're kind of right you know what like there's so many people at a wedding unless this is like a really intimate like 20 person wedding like even if it is it's your mom yeah you're right like i would never want my mom to feel i don't know weddings get so tricky though I feel like everyone has like different views of what like who should get invited
Starting point is 00:14:20 what and like I also like I have family members who had very very strict number limits at their venue of like hey if you bring that person we have to essentially like kick someone else out so if it's a situation like that where it's like we we just can't make it work but yeah you're right like it's your mom just let her bring someone man of the month so it seems as it Well, no, no, I thought, I thought you read that wrong. No. You read the wrong. She's only known the guy a month. It's not the- Yeah, but she did say, she did say it feels like she's just dating this guy
Starting point is 00:14:50 so that she could have someone to bring to the wedding. What's wrong with having a date for the wedding? When you- Well, their issue is that everybody else is a long-term partner. Yeah. So that's why. That's the rule. So it's like it's going against a rule, but I say you break it because it's your mother.
Starting point is 00:15:08 And I say who's paying for the wedding? well that's a whole other if it's if yeah if it's her then she definitely she could bring six guys and and I get feeling weird when your ex-husband has a girlfriend there like yeah yeah somebody to dance with some that there's few moments
Starting point is 00:15:28 so he's dancing with her a lot of weddings alone trust me I mean like if her if the mom has like a bunch of family going and a bunch of friends going and her daughter's like you have a ton of people you're going to feel supported Maybe they're like, we don't think we're going to like this guy. Maybe there's like a history of like, we don't like the boyfriends. We don't want her bringing this random guy.
Starting point is 00:15:49 Then I can understand the daughter maybe being like, look, like you got people there. But I think even aside with you, Joe, like it's your mom. Like let her bring the date. Exception to the rules. Break the rule. Yeah. There's always an exception. For your mom.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Well, I hope the wedding. Kathy's very obedient. Her daughter said no. She said yes, ma'am. Kathy's not obedient, but I did not bring a date to my daughter's wedding. Well, Kathy, can I ask you real quick? Sure. So since you actually ended up doing both, which did you prefer?
Starting point is 00:16:21 Being able to bring someone to your sons or having to go solo to your daughters? Look at her face, Joe. She knows her daughter's going to listen to this and she's scared. No, no, no. Here's what I actually was thinking. I didn't want to tell the whole story. But there is a guy I dated for 10 minutes and we're friends. And I invited him to the wedding as friends.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Just, and he's a great dancer, just to have someone to be with. And then after the wedding, you know, the meals were paid for, he decided not to come. And I was irritated beyond belief. But in the meantime, my son, Kyle, and his wife, Candy asked Susan to officiate the wedding. So Susan and I were the first up on the dance floor. I didn't, you know what the bottom line is? Didn't need the guy, had Susan. As long as I'm there.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Yeah, but honestly, it was a little uncomfortable. my daughter's wedding it really was i just i was missing my husband it's my only daughter uh you know wishing he had been there uh the whole thing that it was much harder at my daughter's wedding got it so chill out my little bride and let your mother bring a date or invite susan to me to go with him we can we can do all right here we go number two this is from henry hello kathy and susan hello henry my name is henry and i'm a 68 year old man who just lost me my wife of 40 years to cancer. Sorry to hear that. That's sad. My kids are all grown and spread out over the country with their families and my grandkids. I'm still living in the house we raised our
Starting point is 00:17:53 family in and living in the town my wife and I lived in. Without our kids here, it feels like everything and everyone in this city was mine and hers. And it feels extra lonely being here without her. Since my kids are all spread out and most of our friends were couple friends, I'm thinking about picking up and moving to New York City, which is somewhere I've always wanted to live and never got to do when I was younger. I'm curious your thoughts about starting completely over at our age and if I'll feel even more lost in a big city like that, coming from a smaller town upstate. Do you think I should just pick up and move or give myself more time to heal and see if that's what I really want. Thank you both. You feel like friends listening to your
Starting point is 00:18:40 podcast. Oh, Henry. We are your friend, honey. We are. I couldn't agree more that it's time to make a change. However, New York cities, you can be lonely in that city. I would suggest taking a month, try it out, I wouldn't just do, right? I mean, there might be other cities that you might or up in New York, but maybe not downtown. It's lonely. Serena and Joe, you guys can go travel and sublet your place to him for three months. Give him a month, please. What do you guys think?
Starting point is 00:19:17 I think go to Naples, Florida and spread your wings out there. Or what I really think you should do is send them that application for the Golden Bachelorette. Because it sounds like that might be the move. Or, if we're really going there, or Henry, send me your ready. resume and maybe you want to move to Austin, Texas. There we go. Let us check it out. We can help you.
Starting point is 00:19:42 But I personally don't say, I feel like, yeah, like everyone, everyone's gone now. You know, he's in this big house. He's probably feeling lonely. Like, at this point in your life, like, yeah, change is good. Take a risk. You know, you know, life's short. So I say live it up. If you feel like moving to New York, you fucking move to New York.
Starting point is 00:20:03 You better have a ton of money, too. And you also, yeah. Yeah, Susan, I think your suggestion of like maybe if you have never lived in New York before or a big city, I mean, New York is so different than any big city truly. Test it out. Do like a one month Airbnb rental. See how you like it. New York is a big city.
Starting point is 00:20:21 It can be hard to find like a community. So yeah, maybe or maybe like you look into, I don't know where his kids live, but maybe he wants to live somewhere that's close to his kids. Yeah. Try a couple cities out. Yeah. Yeah. what? The unwritten thing here for me is this guy is 68. He's the kind of guy I'm looking for. This guy has a, no, seriously, he has a sense of adventure. Henry, call us.
Starting point is 00:20:46 No, Henry, call me. This is Kathy, not Susan. I'm saying the guy sounds like he has a sense of adventure, right? So I agree with you, Susan, go and spend, you know, a month or two, but this guy sounds like a guy that would get to New York and maybe, you know, join a group. I museum group, a walking group, a bar crawl. He would do things to get to know people. So maybe. Yeah. I think it depends on his personality and who he is. Like if he thinks that he's going to like get here, he loves New York. He wants to change. He wants to put himself out there. Like, go for it. But like, yeah, he's not sure. I'll feel even more lost in a big city like that coming from a smaller town. Which he might. And I can tell you, he's from upstate New York.
Starting point is 00:21:35 that's where my daughter's husband's from. That's where my husband was from. Upstate New York is a whole different kettle of fish. And Henry, I'll be there this summer. Henry, just send me your resume. I'll check it out for Kathy. Kathy, I'm all about you. I'm all about you, Susan.
Starting point is 00:21:52 We're going to find each other. We're going to have a dual wedding. Oh, my God. I could totally see you guys doing that. I hope this works out. I'm invested. But Henry, I think travel a little bit. Like, I think the intention of maybe moving
Starting point is 00:22:05 starting fresh somewhere is a great idea but maybe travel to New York, travel to a few different places, see what feels like it might be your new home. I agree. Henry, we wish you the best. We really do. Do we have time for one more, you think? Go for it. I think so. Okay. Hi, guys. I love your podcast. Thank you. I'm going to remain anonymous because my boyfriend and I sometimes listen to your episodes together. Anyway, we've been dating for three years and have a pretty great relationship. We just moved in together a few months ago. And ever since we moved in, dot, dot, dot, I feel like his mom, I cook, clean, grocery shop, do laundry. And he often just leaves his stuff around our apartment and acts like a teenager when it comes to evenly dividing housework. I don't like
Starting point is 00:22:55 continuously nagging him to put a stuff away or help out. And this is really hurting our relationship dynamic. Any advice? to get him to pull his weight or is this just how he is? Thank you for your help. Oh my gosh. What do you think, guys? He's not going to change.
Starting point is 00:23:16 I mean, that's an issue. I mean, listen, if it, I would say my first piece of advice would be have the conversation, but it seems like she already did and nothing's changed from there. So then that's, like for me, that would be a major issue.
Starting point is 00:23:31 Like, it's one thing, I get it. Like people, people are, are very different and people were raised differently. Yeah, everyone goes into a relationship of living together with different home habits. That's always going to be the case. Like maybe this guy is like, I'm not picking up my stuff because I've never picked up my stuff. So I'm not going to, you know, it's not that he's trying to disrespect you, but he's like, that's just not something I've ever done. Like maybe he's been living
Starting point is 00:23:54 in felt this whole life. Who knows? I've spoiled my kids, but they had to do things. But recently I was over my son and daughter-in-law's place. And I was babysitting. And I was going to help out and do some of the piles of laundry that were there. And I said, Christopher, he goes, I do my own laundry. And I looked at my daughter-in-law, like my first reaction is like, what? And I go, oh, good for you. Joe and I do separate laundry. See? Like he does his own, I do my own laundry. But it's like whatever works in your relationship. Like some people, it's like, I do the laundry. He does this. Like you divide and conquer. But it can't be her doing 100%. No, that's old school. Serena, you just hit on it.
Starting point is 00:24:34 You know, she is saying, I do the cleaning, the grocery shopping, the laundry, the housework. I'm literally reading this saying, honey, you're the problem, not him. If you don't go grocery shopping, when he comes in and looks for dinner, I don't know, what'd you fix? When he goes in looking for his clean clothes, I don't know. Did you do your laundry? When he goes in and there's toothpaste all over the sink and he's out of whatever, he's out of toothpaste, I don't know. That's your sink. So I've tried that with my kids.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Stop picking up. She's enabling him. She is enabling him. Yeah, but also she doesn't want to live like that, Kathy. I understand. I understand. She has to then, if she goes that route, then she also someone has to suffer herself because she has to deal with the mess and it has to be okay with it.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Like, I'm very type A when it comes to like, like, I hate having like a mess around the house. But it's like, yeah, that's that to me that's like almost like. I hate to say it, but it's like, if you're not willing to cooperate or change at all, then, I mean, that's why I agree with you, Joe, 100%. But she said it. She said, I do it all. She hasn't given him the chance to, to pull his own way. She hasn't given him the change. Yeah, sure. Yeah, I think that she needs to, like, I feel like household chores can get thrown into like, hey, I wish you did this or, hey, can you pick this up? And it ends up becoming like what in your mind is like, it's just a small thing. It's just the dishes. But it's a big. thing when you live with this person every single day. So like she needs to sit down with him and be like, look, these are the household chores that I'm doing. Hang in on the refrigerator. You're doing none of them.
Starting point is 00:26:12 What are you willing to take off my plate? Let's divide this up. Can you do the laundry? Can you do groceries? And if, you know, he's like, yes, which he should be. It's not a big ass. It's basic living requirements. Then like give him the opportunity to take on those tasks.
Starting point is 00:26:27 And if he's not willing to do it or he's not doing it, and every single week you have no groceries. he's like that I would honestly be so turned off I would break up with that person I would be like you clearly are a baby given the chance say hey you know we need to we need to conquer and divide on this relationship and she hasn't it doesn't sound to be like she's done that yet so and be honest and say babe this is not working for me yeah I'm building it anxiety and yeah and if she sits him down and says like look this is really not okay and for me and he still doesn't do it then that is disrespectful yeah that is blatantly like I don't care about your needs or you're feeling comfortable in our home.
Starting point is 00:27:04 I don't care about helping maintain the home. Yeah. No. Then you know where we are? Break up with him. Then you know where we are? Serena Pitt and Joe Amobli. We are back to Arrivederchi.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Yeah. And you can't pitch to his mother because she didn't train him right because it's not going to change. Yeah, he can go home and live with his mom and she'll do all those things for him. But you should not have to. That's right. My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly, and now I'm seriously suspicious. Oh, wait a minute, Sam.
Starting point is 00:27:35 Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit. Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now, he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone. Now, hold up. Isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate.
Starting point is 00:27:55 Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age. It's even more likely that they're cheating. He insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him? Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's boyfriend really cheated with his professor or not?

What do Republicans say to you privately that they won't say publicly? Many of them are in fear of their political lives, and that's been part of the challenge. But we continue to say to them, you were elected to defend your constituents, to stand up for your constituents. And there's life after Congress. And you should be willing to actually want to be able to look back on your. your time in the House of Representatives knowing that you can keep your head held high because you did the right thing. Donald Trump is gone in three and a half years. But their legacy or their
Starting point is 00:29:04 failure to stand up to the extremism and the unprecedented assault on America as we know it will be with them forever.

Starting point is 00:31:19 Do you have a favorite? What comes first? to the top of your head. We did one recently that, oh, you know what? Well, okay, we interviewed Abigail and Noah recently, which was so fun for us because it was almost just like a big catch-up on, like, their life and what's going on and just felt like a, like a FaceTime call because we do have such a good friendship with them.
Starting point is 00:31:40 We also did an interview, a two-part interview with Maria that just came out a little while ago, which was also really fun. I feel like it was very anticipated. It was long overdue. We got to talk to her for like an hour, which was great. We were a little jealous over that, by the way. A little, a lot. We actually recently, we just did.
Starting point is 00:31:58 My answer would be Joey and his dad. Oh, yeah. That was an amazing interview. We felt very lucky to be able to get that interview. Do you think he would make a good bachelor? I do. I do think his dad would make a great bachelor. He's lovely.
Starting point is 00:32:13 And he was the first parent that we ever had on the podcast of a contestant. So it was a lot of like new conversation. that we've never had before. Okay, who is your dream happy hour guest? People always ask us this. And it's so hard because I actually kind of feel like we've had like most people on. Yeah, for at least for, yeah, because like just like a random celab just wouldn't, it wouldn't really make sense with the way our podcast is formatted. So I feel like, yeah, we're pretty lucky with the guests we get.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Like it's always, we're always very happy. You know what I would love to have is a couple that broke up come on together. Are we talking Gary and Teresa here? I would love to have like a Gary and Teresa come on and talk about. Get in line, Serena. They're coming to us first. Susan, maybe Bradley Cooper, especially if he watches the show. He never missed an episode.
Starting point is 00:33:09 I love that. I feel like he'll be on Susan and Kathy's podcast though because he's such a fan of theirs. Come on, Susan. Okay, here's a good one. Besides your own wedding, what was your favorite? Bachelor Nation wedding that you attended. This is rough. I know, I know your answer.
Starting point is 00:33:27 Which one? Wells and Sarah. Yeah, Wells and Sarah. That was just such a great wedding. I got sick and I didn't get to go, which was such a bummer. I think, okay, well, we didn't make it to Tia's wedding. We only made it to her welcome party. I think the only Bachelor Nation wedding I've been to then is Nick and Natalie's.
Starting point is 00:33:44 And we just went to that. That was so much fun. Beautiful. And we had so much fun. Truly, like a great group of people. we yeah we had a blast all right i have i have one for you what is the most heartbreaking bachelor nation goodbye on screen breakup for you guys what's the most heartbreaking one oh that's a good question um i'm trying to think back to the past seasons you know what charity and joey's breakup was really sad
Starting point is 00:34:16 yeah that was really really sad i cried yeah Yeah, that was sad. I'm trying to think, like, back, back. Like, I know Hannah Brown and Tyler Cameron's was very iconic and very sad. There's someone, like, oh, it's driving me crazy because it's like a recent season where I was like, this was actually really sad. Do you want me to, like, list some seasons for you? What was the last one? Joey.
Starting point is 00:34:38 Joey was the last one before that was Charity. Charity and Dotton. For that was Zach. And Katie. It was a guy breaking up with a, it was a bachelor breaking up with a girl. But I don't think it was. that Clayton Clayton no
Starting point is 00:34:51 I mean actually Clayton's breakup with Gabby and Rachel Reckia was the double Oh yeah I think the breakup with Rachel Rachel sitting there crying
Starting point is 00:35:01 Oh That was pretty rough That might be the winner Yeah That might be the winner That's so funny I would have thought One of you would have said
Starting point is 00:35:09 Joey Daisy coming to the realization And going home That to me was so poignant That was sad That was sad But I feel like it was Less sad because she had like accepted it.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Yeah, yeah. I feel like for me it's harder when it's like almost a blind side. Yeah. I really thought you guys were going to say when Gary sent me home, but I guess not. That should have been our answer. That was a missed opportunity. Totally missed opportunity. What was your favorite bachelor nation style dream date?
Starting point is 00:35:40 Out of all the dates you saw, what would be your favorite? Oh, I know. Okay. I know. And I think this is your answer too. Joey and Kelsey in Jasper Canada which is like so beautiful literally got to like go to a bar
Starting point is 00:35:54 they walk around the city they go to a bar they're playing pool they're having beers They do a cold plunge Joe and I were like this is our dream date Yeah like so fun So like easy relaxed How about you Kathy
Starting point is 00:36:08 I was just going back Thinking about Canada How was the Santa Monica Peter for you Susan So good So I like the helicopter and the yacht with faith. I mean, I would have liked to have gone on that one. You know what I want to do? I was, I really want to skydive.
Starting point is 00:36:27 I want to jump out of an air. Yeah, I really want to do that. I want to find the God. I want to do it in tandem, you know, not jump out by myself. It's kind of give me a microphone. It's like give me a microphone. You don't know what's going to happen. I've done it.
Starting point is 00:36:39 Have you? Yeah, I hated it. Scary. I was nauseous the whole time. When I got done, I was like, why did it? I just risk my life like that. Did you do it solo or tandem? Tandum.
Starting point is 00:36:50 And I would never do it again. I would never do it again. Ever. I wouldn't even consider it. Tell me, is the landing really hard? Did you feel like you were going to break your legs or something? Or did you land?
Starting point is 00:37:01 I was just so happy to get down because I was going to throw up. So I didn't even care how hard I landed. The best date, we're back to getting the ball gowns and the diamond earrings is the best date. It's a pretty good one, too. Yeah. No, that was a nice date. I'm an adventure girl.
Starting point is 00:37:15 But wait, I have to go back Just for one second Did you guys not think That Gary and Leslie's breakup was tough After we started talking I thought that one was tough That one was tough actually yeah That one was tough
Starting point is 00:37:29 I feel like they all like it's When it comes down to the final too Yeah It's hard yes It's hard to it's But you know when you see how happy Joey is now Like you focus on that Now I don't focus on it
Starting point is 00:37:41 Because he had the opportunity Of having the lead And finding his girl yeah and you honestly usually the truth is that the sad truth is you usually forget about the breakup because then the you know the the couple at the end so happy that that's where your focus goes yeah until they get a divorce and moving right along they ruin my record i'm just saying that's true do you know yes susan has never had a couple breakup that she has married until this one way 10 years okay well we could just sweep this one under
Starting point is 00:38:14 the rug. It's okay. We won't count it. It was a TV wedding. And you know what? I think there's some, I think there's something written, Susan, in the marital almanac websters that says if you're not married more than four months, it doesn't count. Yeah, you could technically get, like they could annul the marriage, I think. No, you cannot. Wait, you cannot. Everyone thinks you can annulment is for the Catholic Church. Well, no, you can get a marriage annulled, but it has to, you have to meet certain requirements, undue duress, forced, you know, there's all kinds of requirements that you have to meet to get a marriage annulled. They don't meet them. Oh, okay. I thought there might be like a under three months. People just assume that it's like just an option. Well, because I think Kim Kardashian got
Starting point is 00:38:57 her marriage, like her 72 day marriage and old. It's Kim. It's, it's Kim Kardashian. Chris, if you're listening, when are we doing lunch? Kim, if you're listening, when are we doing a podcast? Joe and Serena, thank you so much for sharing with us and giving us your point of view on your advice.
