Bachelor Happy Hour - Bailey’s Turn to Tell

Episode Date: August 12, 2025

Today on “Happy Hour,” we’re sitting down with Bailey from this season of “Paradise”! After an explosive week on the beach, Bailey is giving us her opinions on everything that went down. We kick things off by chatting about the beginning of her “Paradise” journey, from her soft love triangle with Jeremy and Kyle to her growing connection with Jeremy and some of the hard choices she’s had to make so far. Then, we jump right into the Jeremy/Susie situation from the very beginning: How much did Bailey know about Susie and Jeremy? She also gives us her POV on her date with Andrew and the rift it caused between her and Jeremy. And, of course, we get into everything that went down this week. She tells us all about the conversation with Brian, how she felt receiving that news, and everything about the fallout. She opens up about her feelings of betrayal and what she wishes would have happened. Why did everyone turn on Brian so quickly? What would she have done if roles were reversed and she knew this info about one of her friends’ connections? We’re asking all the burning questions.

This is an I-Heart podcast. 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.

And we are here today with Bailey. Bailey, welcome. We're so excited to have you. Our listeners really want to hear from you. How you doing? Hi, guys. I'm so excited to be here. I mean, I'm good. I just got back from Europe and I'm honestly just like getting back into the swing of things. So no complaints over here. Nice. Nice. Okay. So you were on grant season pretty quickly, but you stood out to us because we talked about you a lot. And I remember thinking like, I don't know if you're going to end up with grant. I couldn't really get a feel for whoever was going to end up with grant. But I was like you are, you are definitely someone that I think will be in paradise. And here you are.

Were you surprised when they asked you? Honestly, I feel like after coming off of Paradise, it makes sense. Like, I kind of feel like, you know, it was all meant to happen for a reason. I think everyone was like a little up in the air about, you know, if they were going on Paradise, what was happening. I think we all kind of found out pretty late. But I was really happy, honestly, when they asked me, I feel like it would have definitely like it was more my speed. I definitely feel like I got more time to just like be myself. and it was still stressful, but I still, like, really enjoyed my experience.

So, yeah, I feel like, you know, everything happens for a reason. And my time on grant season was short. I literally got sent home on, like, week three. But, you know, it all was a part of a bigger plan for me to go to Paradise. So I think that's really awesome. Did you watch the show before going on grant season? Honestly, like, not really. I think the last time I watched was Hannah season because we are friends.

And so that's really the last time I was. watched like a full season like till the end. Hannah G. Yeah. That's the last time I've like really watched a season. And even going into it, I didn't even watch. Like I think I watched the finale of Joey's season and I watched when Grant got sent home. And that was kind of just like, all right. It was like I think I've got like a good fix. Like when I was in a sorority, we used to like do Bachelor Mondays and watch them all together. But that was like when Hannah was on. So that's really the last season that I watched. Had you seen Paradise before? No, I actually had not seen Paradise. So when she was on Paradise, I like only very briefly watched years ago. And then before, I think I watched some,

I watched the first three episodes of season eight. And then I realized that like, whatever I was thinking of outfits is going to be totally different. So I was just like, I really watched it so I could plan my outfits. And I was like, it's going to be a totally different season. So whatever really like happens on this Paradise isn't really going to like help me. So I was like, I kind of just need to like shut it off. It's also a lot of episodes, honestly. Yeah. Going into, going into Paradise, who are your friends from Grant's season?

And what guys are you interested in meeting, if any? So going into Paradise, Zoe and I were really good friends from Grant season. Alicia and I were good friends from Grant season. Preeza and I share a best friend. So we, I kind of knew all the girls from my season that were going. I'm friends with Ali Joe. I was friends with Alex. Alex and I weren't as close on grant season, but we definitely like built our friendship on

Paradise, which was really nice because we were roommates. So I was really happy to like have Zoe there with me, especially week one. Lexi and I have like followed each other and I just like knew I was going to love her. I feel like I had a good idea of who was going on Paradise. I don't think people knew that I was going on Paradise, which is also like kind of nice because I feel like people didn't really have time to like do research on me. Maybe they would have not liked what they saw in Grant season. I don't know.

They could be anti-selfie takers. I feel like you just never really know these days. But yeah, I think I kind of knew the guys, but really I haven't had enough time in like Bachelor Nation world to get to like know everyone. I like very briefly met a few of the guys from Jen season for maybe 30 seconds at the tell-all. So I really went into it like having no preconceived like notions about anybody.

And really I didn't have anyone I was. like excited to meet per se. I had like a list of people that I just, you know, glance at their pages. And I was like, yeah, like I think we might vibe. I feel like they seem cool. But I really didn't know anyone, which I feel like is good because I'm a really big personality person. So I think it just allowed me to like feel really natural in the moment and not be like, I hate this person. I know, you know, I was just kind of like vying, honestly. We see you get down there and you kind of immediately enter this. soft love triangle with Jeremy and Kyle. Tell us about those two connections and your first

impressions of these guys. Yeah, I feel like I went on the beach and I was just honestly like, oh, I hope someone's like kind of interested in me. I was just like, oh, I hope somebody's like feeling me, vibing with me. And I feel like it was a really good group of guys on day one, too. I had like no idea Kyle was going to be there. So he was a surprise. I knew that Jeremy was going to be there. But we like had only briefly met like for five seconds one time. and I don't even really remember us meeting each other, honestly. I just know we were in the same place. So I feel like, you know, I think they both surprised me because I wasn't expecting to like talk

to either of them or have conversations with either of them. And I feel like when I was having conversations with every single person that day, I was solely going off of like personality and I think both their personalities in different ways like stood out to me. And yeah, I've never been in a soft, soft love triangle. So that was definitely very nerve-wracking. and, you know, I was feeling really nervous with my feelings, like, week one. I was just, like, so overwhelmed because you, I mean, you guys know, like, you have to make

such tough decisions in Paradise. And it's like, because you've focused on certain people, if, you know, you don't choose them, their journey is, like, cut short. And so many people went home week one. So it was, like, really nerve-wracking and you don't want to make, like, the wrong decision with anything. And so, yeah, it was definitely a weird feeling for me because I'm very much just, like, with you know i'm like used to just like being locked in on one person so but i also wanted to

come into paradise just really you know making the most of this experience taking time to really get to know everyone i didn't want to leave with like any regrets so yeah there was a lot going on okay so you you end up choosing jeremy which seems like it's the correct decision for you and for him what is your relationship like after you pick him prior to Susie coming onto the show where do you guys like what would you consider your relationship status at that point yeah I mean I feel like we were pretty like in a really good place like I feel like I felt in a really good place with us um I feel like that's also why I was really calm when Susie did come in and even when they went on their date I was just like I mean I'm in a good

place like I I am confident in the decision that I made I still think that you know I know that Jeremy was the correct decision for me at the time. And so I was like, yeah, this is, you know, this, I'm making this decision, like, with a lot of confidence behind it and kind of whatever happens going into week two, like that's just kind of what happens. Like, I feel like it was a weird feeling, though, because it did seem like everyone was really locking in after week one. And that's like so nerve-wrecking.

And honestly, I don't even really remember us ever having conversations about other people coming in. I feel like we were just really taking all of our time to really get to know each other. and so I mean you have this thought that new people are coming in every week because that's just paradise and I honestly like really didn't give it any thought I was just like new people are coming in I knew Susie was coming I didn't know that Jill was coming and I knew that Ali Joe and Prisa were both coming so I was kind of just like I guess we just kind of see like I was like I don't think I'm worried about any of the girls that are already here so it's going to have to kind of be well I mean I don't think anyone on in the history of the show like week two's early right like if you if you would have had an issue with him going on a date that would have been like okay it's it's pretty early like you got to explore when it's when we're only you know it's really only like three three four days in yeah he goes on the date he comes back where is your head at when he gets back like do you know like what where he stands

with this relationship. Well, so their date was like right before Rose ceremony. So while they were on their date, I was like, I spent the day just like kind of viving. Like I just spent the day at the pool. Honestly, with Spencer and Jess. Like, it was so fun. We were just like having a good time.

I was so calm, which is really unlike me. I was so calm the entire day. I was just like, you know, I was in a good mental space just being like, whatever happens happens. And like, that's really all that I can control. And then I think also like everyone else was kind of also having. intense stress at that moment. So I was just like also trying to be there for my friends and also trying, you know, there was just a lot going on at once. And so I think where my mental kind of was

just like, oh shit, like maybe I will be going home tonight. I really don't know. Like while I was packing after I was dressed, I was like, yeah, maybe I should just like, you know, get it in my head that I'm feeling confident of where we are. But also like I don't know how the date's going. I know Susie's an amazing person. It's like it's very, you know, it's hard to say. like again it's it's been like four days at this point so it is kind of just like oh shoot like something could change and then I think like going into cocktail hour I was like oh yeah like maybe there's a chance that things could really feel weird I definitely felt like a little I wouldn't say like an energy shift I was just like oh I'm a little bit nervous I could tell like he seemed

very conflicted and then we had our conversation and I was just like listen I don't want to be really emotional in this moment because I feel like I want you to make a decision not because I'm upset, but because like this is actually the decision that you want to make. And I remember sharing that with him. I was like, I don't want you to make a decision because I'm crying and like crying, screaming, throwing up. You know, I want you to make this decision because like this is what you want and this is what you want on your journey. And you feel like that's how it should be because then like also it's just like it just gets messy when like someone's really emotional. like triggered you know so I feel like I just had to disassociate a cocktail and I was like I just

need to turn my brain off just you know I said my piece and whatever happens happens and that rose ceremony was like really nerve-wracking I feel like it felt like I was back on like night one of grant season just being like oh crap like things could really not go the way I want them to go um and so yeah I mean, you know, it's a stressful situation. Like, you understand both sides that you have to make these hard decisions and you just realize that it's paradise. Like really anything can happen. Did Jeremy give you any like reassurance or any inkling into where his rose was going?

I think that after we had our conversation, I honestly felt really good about our conversation after we had it. I was still like a little emotionally shut down because I was. still just trying to like process my emotions also like I think everyone saw how much I cried on grant season and also how much I cried week once I was like I don't want to be an emotional mess so I just need a process in case I am going home so I did like slightly go into rose ceremony just like with the thought that like I actually really might be going home um so that I didn't like maybe scream cry I don't know like sometimes your emotions are just like not in tune in that moment

And I feel like I just told him, I was like, if it's not going to be me, all I want is like you to tell me that. So I have time to like mentally prepare. And we never had time to have that conversation because, you know, cocktail is quick. It is you think you have all the time in the world and you really don't. And so, yeah, going in the rose ceremony, like the only small inkling I had, like when we passed each other, he like winked at me. And I was like, that's weird. Like, why would you wink at someone if you're going to send them? them home. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, if he just like winked at me and sent me home, I'm fully

crashing out. Like I'm going to rock it. Like I'm going crazy. And so then, you know, I was calm. Thankfully, I stayed calm even after the wink. And I was just like, I hope, you know, things work out in my favor. And I was like, if not, like, you know, shortly. Yeah. Like, it is what it is. We see that he does give you his rose during that row ceremony. And then we also see everything play out with Justin and Susie, where they both end up going home. Was any part of you wondering had Susie stayed if Jeremy and her would have continued exploring their relationship? Did you and Jeremy ever talk about Susie after that rose ceremony and maybe what their

connection had looked like on the date and what it could have looked like if she stayed? Yeah, I feel like our conversation the next morning, like I just basically asked him, I was like, you know, are you feeling confident in your decision at this moment? And he was like, I think I, he's like, I made the right decision. Like, I think, you know, and I, and he asked me if I wanted to know about the date. And I honestly didn't want to know about the date because I feel like the whole point of paradise is that you go on dates with people. And like who the point is like, you're choosing the person that you choose for a reason. And so I honestly just like didn't really care about the date. I feel like if he really felt this connection that he would have picked her,

even if it was like a beginning spark. And so I was just like, I just have to. be confident on like where we are obviously I also had no idea that all these things were going on and there's moments of doubt and there's all these things to process but yeah after that insane rose ceremony like week two that was a crazy rose ceremony I didn't really think much about it because I was kind of like okay and kind of hearing Susie like her viewpoint after like I don't know if I really think it would have changed that much because it didn't feel like she wanted to get into a love triangle and I think it would have been really messy anyway so I obviously have no idea what like what have happened. I guess it just like kind of worked out of my favor in that moment.

And I think I was so focused on the present. I really wasn't giving like a lot of these like what ifs time. And you know, when you watch it back, you think about things. But, um, yeah, I mean. My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly and now I'm seriously suspicious. Oh, wait a minute, Sam. Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit. Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the okay story time 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. 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.

I'm Jemail Hill, host to the Sports and Politics Podcast 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 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 well things are happening so fast too like just even the fact that they're you guys are going on dates on the same

day as rose ceremonies like yeah like that's that's quick that's things are moving fast so i can totally understand how it's kind of like it's not even things getting swept under the rug it's just like you know the current's pushing you forward and like if you didn't kind of jump on to something when it was happening sometimes it gets a little left behind but um this one didn't get left behind it did end up following you through the next few weeks let's talk about um your date with andrew so the rose ceremony happens basically i think it's the next day Andrew comes down to Paradise. He talks to you and Alex. He ends up taking you on the date. Walk us through your decision to go on the date with Andrew and then your conversation with Jeremy. Yeah. So I feel like

I was really caught off guard by Andrew asking me to go on the date. I did know that Andrew was coming to the beach. But honestly, like I didn't really have like any thoughts about it. I just I didn't really give it that much, like, energy in my head. And the day that he arrived, I barely spoke to him. Like, I think I said hi. And then I just kind of, like, me and Jeremy were just kind of like off in the corner. And so I was really caught off guard when he, like, asked to speak to me. And I was like, oh, and I came into our conversation. And I was like, oh, you want to take me on a date? I was like, I haven't even given that thought because, like, I wasn't expecting you to take me on a date, honestly. And in that moment, I was just like, well, I don't see why it would be

a big deal. Like Jeremy just went on a date yesterday. The whole point of paradise is that you go on dates. And like if you come back and choose your person, then like that's who you choose. And that's like, that's what paradise is about. And so I was just like, I mean, yeah, I would love to go on a date. I've honestly never been on a one on one. So I was like, I've never had a date in like bachelor history. And I would love to like know what these date. I was like, this would be fun. Like, you know, Andrew had a really good energy and like I feel like I really enjoyed our conversation. We're like a little bit similar and like kind of our human, like, and those kind of things. I was like, yeah, I feel like this will be fun. Like, we'll have a good time. And like when Susie talked to me about going on the date with

Jeremy, I was like, I think he'll have a great time. And like, that was my thought process. And, you know, obviously, I don't think that Jeremy and I really had a conversation about me going on a date that night. Like earlier, we weren't like, oh, if someone new comes in, like, will you go on the date? Because I wasn't really thinking I was going to go on the date. So I think my first thought was like, okay, yeah, like, I would be open to the date. But like, I definitely need to like talk to Jeremy about it because I feel like that's kind of like, you know, how you keep open and honest communication. And I was definitely caught off guard a little bit by, you know, how upset he was and it threw me off. Like I got really upset about the date. And then I was just like overwhelmed

with emotions because like I could have, you know, and like you said, like things are happening so quickly. It's like you have no time to process. And the date was that night. So it's like all these things were happening like within, you know, seconds or like minutes of each other. So I was just like, I barely have time to to process this decided if I'm going to go on the date and I just knew I wanted to leave paradise with no regret so I was like I mean I know he's upset

I hope that he trusts me and you know sees how things go and I was like I was really calm cool and collected so like that's what I also hope happens obviously that didn't happen but you know I was like I was like I still need to be present on like my journey here and make the most out of it and so

you know that's how I went into it for the date yeah it's interesting because Because when he told you about his date, you expressed a few minutes ago that your goal with the conversation was to not be too emotional because you wanted him to have a clear head to make his decision and not make a decision based off of your emotions. Did that contribute to like your shock when he reacted so emotionally about you going in the date and did it make you waiver in your decision in any way? Like, did you feel swayed by his emotion?

It's not that I, like, felt swayed by his emotion. I think, like, you know, you care about this person. So I was like, oh, like, if they're upset, I feel upset, you know, that kind of thing. So I was more just like, oh, I'm really worried about, like, how upset he is. I wasn't really processing his reaction in that moment. I was really just, like, more worried about his feelings and about, you know, how he was feeling about me going on the date. And I mean, he's normally a very, like, calm-headed person.

what I've learned about him in these two weeks. So I was just like, oh, I, you know, I wasn't really thinking it was going to be a thing because I was like, I think he'll be calm about it. And, you know, but it's also, it's a really high pressure, high intense situation. Like, you're really having to, like, process your emotions in Paradise. You don't have a phone. You don't have, like, you can't call your mom. Like, you really, you have to process and be one with your emotions.

And sometimes it just, like, it skyrockets. And it's like, and I was definitely taken aback by that. I was like, oh, crap. like he's really upset I was not expecting him to be upset so I think that also really threw me off I am an immature person at times I would have said what the fuck you went on a date you know 15 hours ago why is it an issue if I now go on a date what did you ever think that or ever say that was that ever a conversation would have been like I'm actually going to go date everyone on the speech now Well, no, I just, you know, I'm dating everyone like I, I guess, yeah, like it would be like if this was like, you know, two weeks after and you guys kind of were more locked down and he was like visibly, then I would get it more.

But because he had just went on a date in such a short period of time, it does seem just very hypocritical. Yeah. And looking back, there's like two sides. So it's like obviously the night before. like I expressed to him that like I was really only focused on him and really I was like I wasn't really like I didn't really have like at that moment like I had conversations to everyone and like it was like him and I like after going after Rose ceremony too I was like there's not anyone I'm interested in and like coming in I really didn't have Andrew my radar so it wasn't even like I was like I hope Andrew takes me on the date you know I was kind of just like oh I'm shocked that you want to take me on the date because I was also like there's other people that aren't coupled up and so like that was a lot to process. And I think in the moment, I couldn't even be like, wait, I just went on the date. But I think in some of the conversation, I was like, you know, I just went on a date. You just went on a date yesterday. I didn't think it was going to be a big deal for me to go on the date. And at that moment, I couldn't even really react and be like, I'm angry.

You know, I was just more like, oh, I'm worried about your feelings. And I was like very emotionally thrown off. So I think it was more just, it was just like a caught off guard moment. I feel like that's what paradise is. but it's like, sometimes you don't even have time to, like, think in an angry matter because, like, you don't have time to really process it. I was like, I had to process going on the date. I have to talk to Jeremy.

I'm leaving for the date, you know? It's so quick. So I also think that's why probably after, like, I left, he had all this time, you know, to sit and think about me going on the date. And I really didn't have to. I was like, I just have to be in the moment on my date. And then, like, later, I can reflect back on this moment and think about how I'm feeling and and how things go on and we can have a conversation about it yeah okay so we see we see

jeremy somewhat spiral which you know he is getting a lot of heat for that but like i do get it like you're in this situation you spiral a little bit he calls susy bold move but but he does it um but when he gets back or when you get back from the date you end up choosing jeremy and not andrew does Jeremy ever addressed the fact that like, hey, like I overreact it, like, you know, like or even explain why he was upset that you went on the date? Like, why is he that upset over it? Yeah. Is there a conversation that kind of closes that out? So the conversation, like after the date, I obviously don't have time to see Jeremy. It's late. So we come back from the date. We go to sleep. I wake up the morning. The first person I want to see is obviously Jeremy. So we have like this

moment where I discuss like the date. You know, I was like, do you want to know about the date? Like all these things and I let him know that like, yes, I had a good time on the date and like I'm, I'm glad I went on the date, but ultimately like I'm focused in on this. And I think where in that moment, at least where he told me were his feelings of like, you know, where he was upset. He just like felt like I was maybe being dishonest with him because like I had said that I was really locked into him, which in that moment, I understood. I was like, yes. I still don't think it was like worth the freak out just because like I was so calm. But also like at this point, I've only known him for three weeks so I actually really don't know how he processes you know intense moments like that and

I wasn't going to hold him to it either like his reaction I was going to be like oh this reaction was so out of left field like we're done you know that's that's too much like worst we're in this like pressure cooker of just intensity so I feel like and there's moments like where my first thought isn't always like choose anger my first thought is like usually crying so like when I'm frustrated when I'm overwhelmed so I feel like also every single person kind of react differently. But we did have a conversation and I was like, I'm sorry if I misled like my words the night before. I just really wasn't thinking that he was going to take me on the date. And that's really where a majority of like our conversation was about was just like, you know, I'm sorry for

this. And he was like, I shouldn't have really acted that way. And like, yeah, it was, it was like a tough. It was a tough watch like that night and like going into that morning. Obviously, I think in hindsight, I didn't know about the phone call. So I. wish that that morning would have been just like a moment where he was just like, yeah, I'm like, yeah, I did actually spiral and I did, you know, fully let loose. And I called Susie. And I think it would have been easily squashed and it not turned into this whole thing. But it was it was a tough morning.

Like you're also like trying to shove so many things down, you know, like I don't have a phone where I can make a notes list and be like, let me touch on this, on why this. And, you know, reflecting back on this. And so you really are just like. having all these conversations and all these thoughts based off what's going on in your head. My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly, and now I'm seriously suspicious. Well, 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, 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. 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?

All right, West West, Prop here from Hood Politics with Prop Podcasts. You already know our get-down. If you grew up in our urban areas of comfort of struggle,

you understand politics much more than you giving credit for. Feds taking over American cities, government hop-out boys, hopping out the van, snatching up your Theo and them, two wars that was supposed to be solved in 24 hours. Jerry just out here mandering all over the place. The turfs. And of course, the Epstein of it all.

Well, this week we decided to shoot our shot, And boy, did we pull up from the logo to see if we could get somebody to come tap in with us. And the one and only Jamil Hill pulled up from this politics podcast to keep it a whole century. Because in America, what sells in politics are narratives and storylines. It's like we treat politics like we treat sports, which is part of the reason why we're in the situation we're in right now.

Welcome to Brown Ambition. This is the hard part when you pay down those credit cards. If you haven't gotten to the bottom of why you were racking up credit or turning to credit cards,

you may just recreate the same problem a year from now. When you do feel like you are bleeding from these high interest rates, I would start shopping for a debt consolidation loan, starting with your local credit union, shopping around online, looking for some online lenders because they tend to have fewer fees. and be more affordable. Listen, I am not here to judge. It is so expensive in these streets. I 100% can see how in just a few months you can have this much credit card debt when it weighs on you. It's really easy to just like stick your head in the sand. It's nice and dark in the sand. Even if it's scary, it's not going to go away just because you're avoiding it. And in fact, it may get even worse.

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 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. Yeah, I have one question. Then we'll jump into the meat of it this week's episode.

Do you think, just hypothetically, if at the cocktail party, someone had said, tomorrow Andrew's going to come down and take Bailey on a date and she's going to go on it, do you think he would have given Susie his rose? That's hard. I feel like maybe honestly because like at that point like we didn't obviously knowing Susie like she wasn't going to go on the date with Andrew because they're friends and he's friends with her ex-boyfriend. So I think it would have definitely changed things that we obviously could have like looked into

the future and seen yeah like Andrew's going to come in and like ask Bailey on a date because like you know there's also moments. It's like you know certain people are coming in at some time. And so it's kind of like do I pick this person knowing. that someone else really wants them and it's like it's even like with honestly like alley joe and sam like you know we kind of knew that they would be a good match for each other so it's also like you're taking that risk of giving your rose of someone knowing that maybe someone they could be interested in or someone that like has them top like you know what i mean it's like you kind of

and the point of paradise is like yes like i'm i'm a person i'm thinking about everyone's feelings and like the bigger picture i'm like you know i'm thinking about your feelings how you're processing this, but you also have to think about yourself when you're in paradise. So like every decision you're making is based on like what's going to have the best outcome for you. And so like honestly, if he probably would have known that like Andrew was coming down, maybe he would have picked Susie even though not knowing the outcome of what would have. I mean, I mean, odds, odds he probably would because his odds are probably like, why risk when you know that. But anyways, okay. Um, okay. So let's get we'll get into this episode where things get crazy yeah because obviously as viewers we're

seeing everything that you're not seeing so we're seeing him spiral we're seeing him call susie we're seeing these private chats that he thinks are private chats with brian and him in the bedroom talking about i don't want to win this competition with bailey i don't want to go to the vip suite with bailey i miss suzy so this as an audience member is a big buildup moment because we are waiting for that day where you learn what we know that Jeremy has been saying and doing. I would not have expected it to be Brian to be the one to step up to do this. However, he's the guy in this episode. He says multiple times in interviews, how much he likes you, how much he cares about you.

And yes, there's a sense of like there's this new competition element, but it does really seem like his conscience is kind of playing a role. He's, you know, we see all the, the confusion of he's asked you for a private chat. You think he's pursuing you. It's like, you know, a little bit of a mess. And then finally, you're like, I don't want to date Brian. You're like, I don't want to date Brian. What is going on? Finally, you guys sit down and he kind of tells you everything that we as viewers have been waiting for you to learn. How did that moment feel and what was going through your mind? So much is going through my mind. I mean, honestly, like, I'm also, unfortunately, watching it back with you guys. And that sucks. It's kind of like, you know, you're like watching

the, you're watching something go on and you're like, I have no idea these things were happening. It is, it's really hard. You're just like, oh my God, like, you know, I was just like, honestly, in La La Land. Like, I just feel like I was just like, it's Bailey's world. like I'm just in Bailey's world and I'm just living in the moment and then you're watching back and you're like oh I'm watching everyone else's world and it's not Bailey's world or it is it's not the way I thought it was oh it's not my world it's actually really not my world I'm actually living in everyone else's world and I'm just like random but it was yeah like here's a thing I do think that Brian was coming from a genuine place I think that getting into this competition aspect, I still think, you know, there's always, there's, even if it is coming from a genuine place, there's still a way it can be beneficial to you. Do you know what I mean? But I still felt like Brian was coming from a genuine place. And like, he really expressed that in our conversation. Do I wish that he would have done it in the secret rendezvous way? No, because that caught me really off guard. And I think anyone that knows me, I mean, like, I'm a tourist. I'm a super loyal person. So like, I was just like, whoa. no no like I was like absolutely not like I didn't know that that was the point of the conversation

and I was like I'm not about to have a secret rendezvous with you because like that's insane work like I'm not that I'm not going to step out of my character just because like maybe you have something to tell me like I'm like tell it to me at breakfast like what is this going to change like I was like you can't have this conversation with me in front of anyone like at that moment I'm also obviously the last person to know so I had no idea that this is the purpose of the conversation I had no idea why he wanted to have the secret rendezvous. And the whole point of secret rendezvous is like, so maybe you're like seeing who else you're compatible with and all these things. And I was just like, oh, this is just like not something I'm interested in. Like, you know, because like I have

chosen Jeremy. He's chosen me. So like that's where my head was. I was like we also just had like an insanely fun one on one date last week. So like why would, why would anyone even think that I would do a secret rendezvous? Um, I'm still, we're really grateful to Brian for telling me. It was such a shitty feeling, like knowing that I was the last person to like find out about this and every other person knew about it. Like in the grand scheme of things, like I just wish that Jeremy would have told me. I don't know where like his mind is at the time as to why he didn't tell me or maybe things were going so good. He didn't want to like, you know, dampen the mood. And I will say like I was very emotionally like upset. Like coming off of having to send Gary and Leslie home, like my emotions were

just like out of whack. And so when Brian told me, it like really set me off emotionally. Like I just like shut down. I was just like it felt like everything had just been like building up for what we're in week like, I don't know, this week six, week five. And I was just like, I'm like, I'm done. Like I was like, I'm out. Like this is this is too much for me. Like I don't even care about the $500,000 at this point because like emotionally I'm drained. Like I'm at I'm on E, like, I can't take it anymore. And I just wish that, like, I don't know, some of my friends would have told me because, like, I just feel like, you know, in my head, like, yes, Jeremy should have been the person to tell

me. And then secondly, my friend should have told me. So it's, like, kind of hard because you're going down the chain of people that you wish would have told you before you got to Brian telling you. And that was really hard because that just totally threw me off. And the secret rendezvous every, it was like every single week I was just being thrown off, honestly like I was caught off guard every single day of paradise and that's a really like crazy feeling um and that was just a really insane day for me because I was just like I was tired from

the challenge I was like oh I'm excited to like see Jeremy now we've you know we were all separate separate for the challenge just like you know we're doing this we're doing our compatibility challenge and things like that and so going um into just the night like where we'd all hang out like I got ready that I got served with the Secret Rendezvous note, I'm just like, whoa, like, these things are being thrown at me, like, left and right. And I was just like, and then, like, I also, like, being the kind of person I was, I was like, I don't want to just, like, tell everyone about this, like, note that I've received because, like, I actually don't know the purpose of the note. So, like, I don't, I don't want to

make it into something more than it actually is. I was like, and even then as I'm, like, talking to Brisa, I'm like, I don't want her to think that, like, what if I don't actually, like, it's my feeling that something sneaky is happening right now, but I actually don't know. So, like, who would I be to be the person to be like, you know, Brian sent me a secret rendezvous and, you know, I'm talking to my friend and I just didn't want to, like, add to whatever they had going on and, like, make it worse. I was like, I really need to process this and, like, I need to talk to Jeremy about this because I also, like, don't want it seem like I'm being sneaky. like I feel like the worst thing you can do of paradise is like be portrayed as being sneaky like

and I was like and I'm just not that kind of person. So I was just like I need to be like really open and honest and really process this like note first and then I can go into other things. And then obviously like Brian and Brisa talk about it. And you know, I'm glad because I think me immediately going off and telling everyone to being like Brian gave me this note. Brian did this, this, this and this. And like I think it would have made things like a thousand times worse and really would have been a big blow up. And even after Brian told me about it, like I tried to really address it to Jeremy not in a sense of like Brian told me this you know at that point everyone knew but me so really it's like everyone told me in my head I'm like everyone told me because

they didn't tell me um it was it it's really like hard it's hard to watch at this majority of the season's been a hard watch for me um yeah no you you're going it but yeah i mean you're you're going through it so I feel for you for sure because you are it's not an easy experience and I feel like Jeremy calling Susie as much as like that sucks and like I feel like you can get over something like that because you guys were still very early on in your relationship like he he fucked up he didn't tell you like that's a huge mistake on his part and but it's like it was early on emotions were everywhere he he spiraled he freaked out and he had a bad moment but now we're like a couple more episodes in and then like you know he tells brian in his room

like i like something like i would still get engaged to susy or whatever the fuck or like i still like i still have feelings for susy how does that sit with you because it feels like you're at least from what we're seeing your relationship has progressed since the moment he called susy and then it's like weeks later he still kind of says that yeah yeah you question like the seriousness of your relationship and where he stands in it? Yeah, like watching it back. So it's like, obviously the phone call happened week three. And then going into week four, I think it's like maybe that's like day nine of paradise. And hearing those comments, it's like never nice because you know how you're feeling in that moment. So like in the moment, I'm like,

you know, I'm feeling so happy. I'm feeling loved in. I'm feeling like we're really growing as a strong couple. And I feel like my, I actually think in the moment, if I would have just known that there were like all these doubts it wouldn't be like as big of a deal we would have just been able to like have these conversations and I wouldn't necessarily watch it back and be like oh that's like the worst feeling ever you know what I mean and it it's hard because like I'm also someone if there was like moments where I was having doubt I would just internally process those um I know I'm on TV you know what I mean I know that I'm gonna watch back some of these things and the last thing I want to do is like talk out of my character. I obviously like can't say if that was talking out

of it. You know what I mean? Like in the moment, maybe he's just like having a conversation with this dudes. But that was like horrible to watch back. You know, it was hard to process. It was like week four. And yes, we were progressing in our relationship. I also think like it's hard because at this point, we don't know that it's a competition. You know, we don't know that there's not people coming in. So in normal paradise, I think that there's moments where you have like little doubts in your relationship. And I wish that we would have just had a conversation about it. I actually like, and I think we see this like coming off the morning after me finding out about the phone call. Like it wasn't the issue of the phone call. Like I didn't think that that was

that big of an issue. It was more the issue of not knowing that the phone call had happened. And then even worse, everyone else knowing about the phone call because it could have just been like so squash. It didn't have to be like something that took over this entire season. You know what I mean? something that like dragged on for me and it it's really hard to process that like yeah I think I'm still processing it every week because I just remember how I'm feeling in the moment and I'm remembering our conversations and they were amazing because obviously why would we progress to this moment and this time if like we weren't like really liking each other and like even on our date like our date was amazing I that was like my best that's my best first day

I've ever had, like, in my entire life. And I feel like we just got to get really deep. And I mean, I know how I felt. So I feel like I just kind of have to be like, okay. I just have to be like, what, I mean, what can I really do? Like, it kind of happened. And I wish that we would have had time to talk about it in the moment or like him just talk to me about it and been like, hey, like, I'm going to be honest.

Like, I really like you. But I'm also like still having these like things of doubts. And maybe we could have like talked about it. But, yeah, it's, it's really horrible watching it back, honestly. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So, you know, it's obviously it's tough watching all the people that you're close

with know something about you and not tell you. And I get some of the reasoning is they're also friends with Jeremy. If the roles were reversed and this was happening to Alex, do you think you would have, the way your relationship is, do you think you would have told her? Like a thousand percent. I would have not even like that night. I would have come back and I would have talked to her about that. That's just the kind of person that I am.

Like, I hold, like, my friendships to a really high standard. It doesn't mean that I don't, I hold the person that I'm, like, talking to and dating to a high standard, but I feel like if anyone should have my back, it should be my friends. Because really, like, no shade. But, like, what is this guy that I've known for three weeks owe me? Do you know what I mean? Like, what does he owe me? Like, my friends that I've come close with that I'm confiding and that I'm, like, you

know, and I'm sharing to them how deep I'm getting into our relationship and how deep I'm feeling. And I feel like the first thing, my first thought would have been like, okay, I like me to tell you about this like immediately. And then kind of finding out about all the girls that I also got so close with there also kind of finding out. I just like don't understand why no one told me. I think maybe I know I didn't want to know about his date with Susie, but like I think it was very clear that I didn't know about the phone call. And so I don't know, maybe people didn't want to ruin like a good thing going on. But yeah, it's really hard. Everyone's in on a joke and you're not in on it. And it kind of felt like, you know, my love life is like, unfortunately,

the joke that everyone's in on. Yeah, yeah. I'm just like a bystander. Just, you know, I'm back in Bailey World and there's like bombs being thrown out in. You know, I have no idea. Yeah. Just like knowing the kind of person I am. Like I wouldn't have maybe told everyone because I think everyone probably wouldn't have known. I would have just like told, you know, that person like directly. I would have just told her. Like we're sharing a room every single night together. And so yeah, that's how I would have acted. Obviously I understand there's like she's friends with Jeremy and that's hard. But like I also like do like really ride or die for my girls. So like when you become my friend, I felt like we were all so close there. We've been. every single day together you know I really felt so close to these people and like that's why like even sending home gary and leslie was so hard for me because i had just gotten so close to gary and leslie and it literally felt like i was like killing them like that's what it felt like for me i was like i'm i'm literally throwing them off a cliff and ending their paradise time and so i feel like that's why i was also like so emotional i think that's what kind of also made the phone call hit

even harder because it was just like I would have liked someone that, you know, I was very connected to to tell me for Jeremy and for all my friends. And so, yeah. Okay. And then quick last question before we got to let you go. Why do you think that everyone villainized Brian for telling you? It felt like everyone was collectively mad and felt betrayed by Brian and we're almost like We got to get him out of here. When I'm sure from your perspective, you're like, I'm actually so happy he did that. And I feel a greater sense of trust towards Brian now.

Yeah. I mean, like the only one that it makes sense who would be upset with Brian would be Jeremy. Because Jeremy's like, well, I told you. You shouldn't have fucking said anything, but he did. Yes. But I mean, we see Spencer, a little bit of Andrew, a lot of Cat and Dale, basically saying, like, we can't trust this person. But from my perspective, it's like, well,

he you actually can trust him because if someone's doing something you know that feels shady to him he's going to be honest with you about it um can you just give us a little bit of insight into that yeah i think the thing is i see both sides i am so grateful that brian told me i would have hated to like come off of this and then have this conversation and be like oh i went through this entire season and not known that this happened that these comments were made um i would have literally been distraught um obviously it was still really it's still really hard like processing every single episode i think it's going to take me a while to like really you know process it all but in regards like everyone kind of like going against brian obviously earlier that night when i thought he was being really sneaky i was

like no like you know brian's got to go he's being sneaky and then learning that he wasn't i was so thankful and grateful to him and i kind of wish that people would have seen that you know maybe you guys should have just told me and we wouldn't have had to get to this moment where like people are scared they're going to go home and like I felt like the reason Brian told me is because he was slightly scared like you know he could have gone home the week before and he was like I didn't want to leave knowing that no one was going to tell you or knowing that people were going to wait to tell you and I had and I knew this and I didn't tell you and so I you know he expressed that to me in that moment too and I think it's like a mix of things like obviously you know he's had some freak out moments

I think people are also like the girls know about the freak out and the pool and things like that. I don't maybe freak out. It's not the right word. But you know what I mean? So I think it's like a double-edged sword. They're like, can we trust you? Also, these things are kind of happening. I kind of wish that people would have just listened to me and been like, guys, like, I'm not mad at Brian.

Like him and Porese's relationship, that's a different thing. If you guys are voting based off that, like that's what it is. I understand Jeremy feeling like he broke the brood code. but I'm also really still obviously I'm grateful to Brian in that moment because I was just like well no one's going to tell me and I would have hated not knowing about that so it's kind of hard it's like you know what what can you do it like at that time in moment but I think everyone like it also like to be fair we really didn't have that much like drama going on so it did feel just like boom like so intense like when and that's why I kind of didn't want everyone to know that he told me um and then i think it kind of like got out but like i didn't tell anyone that he told me you know what i mean i made it seem like he was coming to me to talk about prisa so yeah that was kind of hard that was and i i mean you know him and preza's relationship and everyone voting like or whatever that's a different thing but i understand the guys like perspective and i also

understand my perspective and i think in that moment everyone should have really thought about like my feelings and not about maybe how betrayed you feel because imagine how betrayed I feel you know I 100% yeah 100% I think that's like I mean I'm not going to talk about Ryan's character and stuff but like I was obviously still and I say this in like my IT I say like I say like I say this I'm like you know I'm glad that he told me like I think it's something that I needed to know um wish it was sooner than later but you know yeah or never happen I think I wish it never happened yeah i mean i you know i agree with everything you're saying and i think like a hundred percent everyone should have like if they're feeling betrayed like think about how betrayed you

must feel in that moment and like i think everyone should just went with what you said like at that point it's like now it is bailey's world motherfuckers like listen to what i have to say and that's that's we're going to be but the season's not over for you i hope it turns around because you're lovely and it's really uh it's tough to watch but i think uh i think it's going to be good but what do I know? We'll be tuning in to see. And thank you, Bailey, for coming on Bachelor Happy Hour. Thank you guys.

Bye. Of course. And thank you to all our listeners. Thank you guys for tuning in to Bachelor Happy Hour. Make sure you download and subscribe to the podcast. We will have new and exclusive interviews coming your way. Thanks for listening. Bye.

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, luckily, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend's 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. Hold up. Isn't that against school policy? That seems inappropriate.

Maybe find out how it ends by listening to the OK Storytime podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
