Hey, everyone, welcome back to Bachelor Happy Hour. I'm Joe. And I'm Serena.

And we are here today with our lovely guest, Latia, welcome to Bachelor Happy Hour. Thank you. How you doing? Thanks for having me. I'm doing well. I'm at work. I'm in my office. So that's why there's such a gorgeous tropical landscape behind me. And what do you do? I work in a venture capital firm in Salt Lake City. We invest in tech, startup companies, so mostly software. Can you give us any good investments? Is that allowed? We invest in the private markets. So unless you are an accredited investor,

Not really. Robin Hood, really. That's what I do. Okay. Wait, you're in Salt Lake City. Are you all up in with the Mormon wives and the housewives and Hakeem? I mean, I'm, I mean, I just finished it this weekend. I'm gobsmacked.

I'm floored. I'm like eating up every single second of it. And they're like just keep giving us more because they're all so online and they're all doing their press tour right now. so I'm like gobbling it up. I love it. I know. It's so entertaining.

It is. It's really good. It's really good. That is the best show. Oh my gosh. I went to Park City in March for like two nights for a brand trip. And A, it's beautiful. Like I'm dying to go back.

But I really wanted to go to Swig, which for those listing is like their iconic soda shops. And I didn't make it. I didn't have time. But I have to go back. Yeah. Yeah. Those are. Yeah.

like soda that they like they like make soda right we put more sugar in it more sugar yeah but it's like it's like natural sugar right sugar cane or is it they have like fun flavor it's red 40 mix it and you know pumps of stuff it's like making like a mocktail but with only like soda and you add coconut cream and it's like all this cool stuff well because if if you're Mormon you're not supposed to drink alcohol alcohol no no caffeine either right mm-hmm anything that can be addictive we're supposed to stay away from. So it's like even like lifestyle like gambling or like, you know, anything that is habit forming and kind of inhibits your freedom to choose and like your, you know, agency we're encouraged to stay away from. I have for sure, um, dabbled in some of the,

you know, things we're not supposed to. I have caffeine. I have my uptimes every morning. But I try to, you know, do my best. I think it's not even a religious thing as much as it's like a well-being thing. Like, I don't think that anyone can argue that I don't think there's any religion that encourages drinking copious amounts of alcohol. You know what I mean? Like, it's just kind of self-care looking after yourself. There's science that backs it up. Yeah, I mean, there's so much now that's coming.

I feel like especially like the younger generation is drinking so much less because there's just so much more on social media that we're exposed to that's showing that they're like drinking. is like, even like two drinks a week will mess up your sleep. Yeah, well, I have the aura ring now. And just seeing if I have like two glasses of wine, even if it's at like 5, 6 p.m., the amount of time it takes from my heart rate to drop to its lowest point, which is what you want when you're sleeping. Like you want that to happen in the first half of your sleep. And if you have like two drinks, it usually doesn't happen until like 6 a.m.

And I'm like, wow, this is crazy. Because I feel like, I'll be like, oh, I'm stressed. Like I'm going to have. a glass of wine, try to like relax, but it's not actually helping. I don't know. There's just so much more science now than there ever has been. I feel like round alcohol. Oh, totally. And those glucose monitors. I want to do one of those this summer. But those that they just, it's like, I think they're similar to what people with diabetes wear that monitor your glucose and just see what foods your blood sugar spikes to and like how long it takes your body to kind of regulate your

glucose levels. That's so interesting. I'm scared because after you learn that info, then you have to eat when you're like conscious of it. And you can't go back. Yeah, exactly. Like I have a friend who her doctor was like, you might be gluten intolerant. Like you might be have an issue with gluten. She's like, I won't be getting tested for that.

Like I don't want to know. I'll take the tummy aches. Yeah. She's like, I'll just suffer if that's the case. Well, I never eat like, I never eat like sub sandwiches anymore because I don't want to ever eat luncheon anymore. I know. It's a shame.

extreme sometimes but i mean yeah it's hard once you learn the information to forget it and look past it sometimes when you know something's not good for you that you've like thought is good for you totally should we talk about some bachelor stuff let's yeah how did you how did you um you you had a great time lovely ending to the season now how um how did you get no bumps no um so i had a friend i don't know if you guys know kiki she worked on the show she was a handler Yes, I love her so much. In college. Yeah.

No way. That's crazy. She was a handler on my season of The Bachelor and then also when we're on Paradise. Okay. Yeah, she's the best. So I was roommates with her in college when she was working on The Bachelor. She was like, you got to do it. Like you would, you know, and at the time I was dating someone or I was scared.

And so just last summer I was talking to her and she was like, I mean, you should still do it. Like, you should try because I was complaining about dating. dating and so I was like okay we'll just send it see how it goes yeah and then there that was that yeah they were like at the end of the casting process I think it was like later in the summer and so I feel lucky because I don't have to wait like I think some people applied in like February and it's like a long waiting game and then you guys know you don't know that you're going until you know so yeah yeah I was in the same boat as you I would literally applied and was cast like a month later and then was like flying out which was kind of a blessing

Yeah, exactly. What did you think when Grant was announced? Was he your type? Yeah, I love like tall, goofy bros. Like tall, goofy, sporty bros. That's my type. You think Grant gives off goofy? A little bit.

Oh, really? Wow. That's interesting. See, he comes across very serious to me. When he comes on the podcast, he's definitely more serious. But I feel like he's in, like, bachelor PR mode. Totally.

He's not giving off that like playful side. He's like more cautious of what he says. See, I think he's like goofy. I don't even mean goofy like he's like funny with his joke. I mean like he's just kind of like goofy like like his feet are too big or like he's just kind of like harmless I guess like non-threatening is like the word that I would like teddy bear vibes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like just like approachable and like.

a normal guy like he's not trying to like right he doesn't like uptight and like serious I don't I don't I don't get like I think I think I'm goofy yeah but you're a different kind of goofy but you know what I'm saying like I think like Grant just doesn't give me that but I don't know

but like if I'm at a bar and I'm looking at Grant and I'm looking at you the as a woman there's a different approachableness there's a different energy that's being put out there I don't know and when you're around too I don't know if this is a girl too I don't know if this really came through but like you we would be walking somewhere and we would have to like stop and like

this is what we're doing today or you know that kind of stuff he would blow past his mark every time and just kind of like oh shut like and i was i would have to like i'm like where are we supposed to stop like okay and then i would just do it so we don't have to do it a bunch of times or like yeah during my whole time we'd like have to like move right exactly yeah just like kind of so i don't know if goofy as the right word but just kind of like airheadish Yeah, a little bit, yeah, totally. What was your dating life like before you went on The Bachelor? What was your relationship history?

I had had a couple long-term relationships. I am a relationship girl, so I hate dating. I don't like meeting people, like in a dating sense. It's a lot of pressure and anxiety, and so. And it takes me like a long time to really, like, be interested in someone. And so it's, I'm typically a slow burn type of a girl, not on the show, but that's like how I am typically. Okay. So you kind of like, you like to invest in one person, if you think it's going to go somewhere, really like focus on that relationship.

Be friends first and like get to know each other's friends and spend time together, getting to know each other. So like most of us, you kind of like step out of your comfort zone and you go on this dating show. What were your biggest reservations before going on? Or did you have any? I mean, probably all the usual suspects, like getting canceled or looking stupid that I was going to cry or like I would have to be in a dramatic situation and, you know, put in an unflattering light. like I think just being observed is I was just scared of that because you know like I watch reality shows I see the comment sections and you know people are people are harsh and you don't really have control over other people obviously but then also you know how it's portrayed and even that is

different than how people perceive it you know so I think that was a new thing like so specifically on TikTok this season, it's been a lot of people like commentating of like this is what producers want us to think, but I know that this is what was really going on and stuff. And it's like, you're wrong. Like, that's not true at all. Like, how could you?

Right. You were never a producer on the show. You never were on the show. Also, even if you were a producer on the show last season, you weren't there. Like, you weren't there. You don't know what was going on, you know? Yeah.

It's like they're condensing, like everything that happened you know hundreds of hours of footage into like two hours every like there's just no way that anyone you'll see speculation where you're like oh that's actually kind of close and I don't know everything that happened yeah yes totally

just fear of the unknown I'm a planner I like knowing how things are going to turn out and I can you know typically anticipate how things are generally going to go and so that was definitely a leap of faith

did you watch the show before you went on it? Yeah. Oh, I had seen seasons before. I wasn't like a religious watcher. If I liked the lead or liked any of the contestants particularly, like I would always, you know, the first episode is so fun to watch. Just like what everyone wears and their entrances and kind of get a sense of everything

and the message that I keep watching. But I dabbled a little bit before. 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 comforted 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. Listen to the hood politics with prop podcasts on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Hi, my name is Enya Eumanzoor. And I'm Drew Phillips.

Imagine that you're on an airplane and all of a sudden you hear this. Attention passengers, the pilot is having an emergency and we need someone, anyone to land this plane. Think you could do it?

It turns out that nearly 50% of men think that they could land the plane with the help of air traffic control. And they're saying like, okay, pull this, do this, pull that, turn this. It's just, I can do it my eyes close. I'm Manny. I'm Noah. This is Devon. And on our new show, No Such Thing, we get to the bottom of questions like these.

Join us as we talk to the leading expert on overconfidence. Those who lack expertise lack the expertise they need to recognize that they lack expertise. And then, as we try the whole thing out for real. Wait, what? Oh, that's the run right. I'm looking at this thing. Listen to No Such Thing on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get

your podcasts. I'm Jemel 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 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. My name is Ed. Everyone say, hello, Ed.

I'm from a very rural background myself. My dad is a farmer and my mom is a cousin. So, like, it's not like... What do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke, but that really was my reality nine years ago. I just normally do straight stand-up, but this is a bit different.

On stage stood a comedian with a story that no one expected to hear. Well, 22nd of July 2015, a 23-year-old man had killed his family. And then he came to my house. So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? A new podcast called Wisecrack, where stand-up comedy and murder takes center stage. Available now. Listen to Wisecrack on the IHeart Radio app, podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

What was your favorite parts or what were you pleasantly surprised about once you got on the show, the experience and like going through it? I think the girls. I hit it off with almost everyone on night one. And I feel like I got closer to a lot of the girls pretty early. on and so and they're who you spend most of your time with so it was like if i didn't feel close to them or if i didn't have them to kind of like rely on and commiserate a little bit with i don't know that i could have done it i feel like we really lucked out i i really lucked out

i really liked everyone who are you closest with would you say um I'm probably closest with Dina, Serafina, Alex, and Natalie. Oh, yeah. We saw you, Dina, and Serafina were in Chicago together, right? Oh, yeah, with Teresa. We went, like, right after AFR, I think. Yeah. Yeah, it seems like forever ago now, but that was so fun.

Yeah. Oh, that was the best. Chicago was so fun. I love it there. That's where I'm from. It's a good city. Yeah, his hometown. Yeah.

Yeah, my friend. Oh, that's right. Yeah, my cousin's actually friends with Dina. That's right. I listened to her episode and I, yeah, I heard you guys put that together. Yeah. So what has, so like everybody listening to this, definitely watched your finale and knows what happened. What's been going on post show?

Have you step back in the dating world at all? A little bit. Not a ton. I've been traveling a bunch and I feel like I'm up against my same issues that I had before coming of just meeting people. It's tough, you know. Are you someone that would be open to moving for love? Or are you really hoping to find someone in Salt Lake City or would be willing to move to Salt Lake City? Yeah, I'm definitely open to moving. I think especially early. on in our relationship. I took about that with grant too. I think it's like very helpful for like a

relationship or like a marriage to be kind of a satellite and kind of you don't have like it's not lopsided in terms of support I guess that you just have each other to rely on it like brings you closer. That's what my parents had. My dad was in the air force and it brought us closer as a family too. So I think eventually I'd always want to have like a home. base in Utah for which if that's my you know family's house or whatever that we always are coming and visiting that's great I love Utah it's amazing I like and I have a good network of support here but I'm definitely open to moving are you are you in grant on good terms now or is it just like kind of a relationship that's non-existent yeah where do you stand with grant and juliana today

yeah i don't have a relationship with grants i don't um i think we kind of hashed it all out i don't think we there's anything else to really chat about but like i don't have i'm on i'm on good terms with him like i don't have any ill will like i you know want him to be happy wish him the best and um yeah same with juliana has anything that they've said since the show ended surprised you oh yeah of course yeah yeah but I but

that's fair you know on their part and I think I never said anything intentionally with like ill will towards either of them

I just was sharing my experience and you know they can share their experience. I don't think it has been surprising. I think just mostly because it's only been publicly. Like there was never any attempt to kind of like clear the air privately.

But that was just like a good indicator, you know, to me. What our friendship meant, you know, which is totally fine. Yeah, I think it's always like, yeah. I don't know. I feel like that. that's something that people should do is, like, talk privately before air and everything out publicly, but, you know, everybody moves differently. I think, too, like, you know, you can't control the questions that you're asked.

And I think a lot of the surprising things came as a response to a question. Sure. And I do want to give them a little bit of grace because it's their first time navigating it. And, you know, you don't always know the effect or the impact that your words will have in a group of people until you know you're in the middle of it and so i definitely regret anything that i said or did that fueled negativity towards anyone because i think that's not that was never my intention and it's hard it's a blurry line i think now i'm learning this um it's a blurry line between sharing your experience and then kind of you have to filter it a little bit

because there are people who will take your words and use it as fuel to, like, spread hate against someone, you know. Yeah, that's, that's a good point because, like, even, like, thinking back to, like, when I got off the show and, like, you do these podcasts and, and these interviews and you're so new to it and you're, and you're also nervous. Like, I remember going into so many interviews just being nervous and, like, almost, like, half blacking out where I could literally have said anything. And my intentions were never to hurt anyone, but it's just like, more like something said with like snark or sarcasm and like that ends up getting taken out of context is always possible too. But speaking of, you know, saying things that end up blowing up. Did you expect your breakup? I mean, your like tone switch and everything and the come on now. Like I have friends that like didn't even watch the season that are like out here like quoting you. And I'm like. You don't watch the show. They're like, yeah, no, it's all over my TikTok. It's, like, iconic.

That is, no, it's so bizarre. You know, I don't remember saying it. Like, I remember talking to producers after the show, after we had stopped filming. It was probably like a month after filming. And they called me and were just talking. And, like, they had, they were obviously in the minutia of, like, editing the finale and all of that.

And they kept saying it to me. And I was like, what are they talking about? They're like, that's such a Latia. thing that you could see that and I'm like I don't remember ever saying that like I don't remember um but I think the as far as the tone switch up that was like something that I did not expect because anyone that knows me very well was not surprised at all by my reaction like everyone was like yeah that's how that was going to go like yeah if she is faced with you know that situation and like those circumstances like that's exactly how that was going to go no one

was surprised that knows me yeah i guess that just speaks to like you know we watch reality tv and you really only get to see such a small part of people because like had that breakup not happened like no one would have access to like seeing that side of you and like totally you know it's just that reminder that like you're really only seeing how people people respond to the situations that they're put in and if they're not put in certain situations you're not going to see those sides of them you're only saying like I mean imagine you're on a first date with someone like for a lot of this season that's about as much time as you have spent with him you know and so you want to put your best foot forward but you also want

to be intentional and make the most of your time and I think like I mean to be honest like at the beginning it really is just like rainbows and butterflies because you're so like you said like you black out a little bit from like the cameras and the lights and the situation and making them like the you know the pressure but and just getting to know that person and also putting your best foot forward and worrying about being observed there's like all those things that go into it and so that's yeah that's a lot of it I think was and then of course I had feelings and so you know and I like I felt so much like compassion for him and like the things that he opened up about and so it definitely brought out like a very soft like nurturing side of me because of like

the nature of the conversations that we were having. Do you have any regrets from your time on the show? No. That's good. That's good. Was, uh, was, was, was paradise, uh, an easier or a hard know for you because a lot of people a lot of people definitely wanted to see more of you and wanted to want it to see you i'm assuming have a successful love story um what was that decision like um i want to see it too i'm right there with them but i think um given the timing of it i didn't know honestly like the way that everything happened after everything aired is really what was the most off-putting thing for me was like I can come into this and have good intentions and I can do my best and be vulnerable and open up and all the rest of it and I can you know get tricked and then the other part of

it is, I think the most hurtful part for me about all of it was the stuff that was said afterwards. And that was very fresh in my mind when we were talking about Paradise. And so I was just like, I'm still getting like, you know, hateful messages because of the things that have been said. And so I just wasn't really like eager or anxious to get back in. And there were people that got so much more than I did. And I feel very blessed because I have felt very supported. But I think just at that time there was a spike in like negative comments. And I was like, you know, experiencing it for the first time. I was like, oh, I don't know if I'm ready to, you know, sign back up for this again. And I didn't know how open I would be able to be. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. Totally. So I think that's that's like, you know, and that's something I've, I have like a like, you know, friends and and relatives. I'd be like, oh, I want to go on the show. And I'm like, well, there is a part of you that has to be okay. Like, you are going to, like, it doesn't mean, like, you, so many people loved you.

I would say 98% of the people that watch the show loved you. But there's that 2% that you are going to get hate from. And it's going to be hard to read. Like, it's tough. Never really, I think everybody experiences something in their life. But, like, not really knowing, like, never getting online hate. And then all of a sudden you're like, like, what did this? person just saying about me like what is this really happening right now so yeah it's it's it's tough

so I get it for sure I feel like timing's everything and I feel like it's you know paradise is always so enticing and tempting and it can be such an amazing time but I definitely have FOMO like I know the tea and I like I miss you know my friends and all of that but like that's not why you go to paradise you know to hang out with your friends yeah to know the T it's you know you need to be more intentional and yeah you'd be surprised her I would say that's why about 75% of the people down there are there well I see and that you're being intentional and maybe next year it's like I don't want to go through that either like trying to figure out who's here for to be on TV again and who's here to meet me and all the rest of it and so are there any of your friends that you're hoping

like ooh I could see her with the sky or any pretty Um, I think it's hard because I just know online personas of all the guys, right? I've never met any of them. But Andrew seems really funny and fun, like a good time. And so not to like pit my friends against each other, but Alex and Bailey specifically, I think would both be like, I would love to see their dynamic with him because it'd be like funny and fun to watch. Because they're both just like, silly goofy and I think that's what I've seen from him so I'm like I hope that yeah I actually we've heard Alex Alex's name thrown out but Bailey and Andrew I think that's a fun prediction yeah all right west west prop here from hood politics with prop podcast you already know our get-down if you grew up in our urban areas a comfort of struggle you understand politics much more than you giving credit for fed's taking over American cities man hop-out boys hopping out the van snatching up your theo in them two wars that was supposed to be

that you didn't expect it. And that was just, you know, and honestly, it took me a long time to be okay with myself. Make sure to listen to this week's episode of Spolitics on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. My name is Ed.

Everyone say, hello, Ed. Hello, Ed. I'm from a very rural background myself. My dad is a farmer, and my mom is a cousin. So, like, it's not, like... What do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club?

I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke, but that really was my reality nine years ago. I just normally do straight stand-up, but this is a bit different. On stage stood a comedian with a story that no one expected to hear. On 22nd of July 2015, a 23-year-old man had killed his family. And then he came to my house. So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club?

A new podcast called Wisecrack, where stand-up comedy and murder takes center stage. Available now. Listen to Wisecrack on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You've made some friendships through people in Bachelor Nation, like Katie, who was on your season and charity. Well, Katie, who came down and did a came out. Who did my chat. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Have you been hanging out with them lately?

I haven't lately. I talk to them pretty frequently. I talk to probably Katie and Charity the most. Ariel, Mercedes, all of them. Jess, Gabby, they're all great. We have some group chats that pop up every once in a while. But I, Bachelor is good at casting solid girls. I will say that. Like, all, like, all, like, all. pretty much all of them that I've met. I love and want to be friends with genuinely. So I still really lucky. That's like such a huge win that I was not expecting. Yeah, definitely. That's just the men that are brutal. Have you, we saw you,

you hung out with Kendall Jenner at Coachella. How'd that happen? Oh my gosh. That was so random. How did that happen? She watches the show. She watches Bachelor. Yeah.

They're big Bachelor fans. All the Kardashians. And so we, I got invited to, like, her brand did a, did a party at Coachella. And I got invited and so did Alex. And so we were like, oh, my gosh, like, we're going to go. This is so cool. We got invited, you know? Yeah, definitely.

818, tequila, right? 818, yeah. And then when we were, like, I think we were just, like, standing there and Kendall came up to us and was like, oh my gosh. And that was the most surreal thing. Totally. I was like, this is a dream. This is like not, this is not real.

But yeah, she like, you know, had just watched the finale and that was insane. And like Haley was there and she had watched and that was so surreal. But it was also at the time when there was the spike in negativity, it was like when everyone was doing podcasts and so I got to ask them about like I was like how do you guys deal with this is like insane and they gave me great advice and that was surreal and they are the like nicest most normal people I can't like I can't fathom it didn't feel real because they were so normal like I felt like they were just like a girl that I met you know what I mean yeah can you share the advice they gave you or no oh yeah they just

I mean, it's funny. They both said it separately. Like, it was in different conversations, but they both said, don't look at it. But obviously, we still see it, but don't look at it.

So it's just like, that's usually our advice too. Yeah. Just don't look. Don't go. Don't like you're, it's going to cross your desk and like, but don't go searching it out

because you will always find something you don't want to see. And I think another one is just like, as much as you can, don't engage with it. Like, because it just, kind of like fans the flames and like breathes new life into it and so obviously when it grows legs of its own and it like there's a point where it needs to be addressed but i think like as much as

you can don't look at it and try not to engage with it definitely yeah i think that's great advice so you're you're moved on living your life you don't go to paradise you said you've been dating a little bit what has that been like lot like, you know, it's just lots of wrongs. Any dms? Any hotties in the DMs? Um, yeah, probably. Yeah, some. What does a DM look like? What do you mean? Like, what are people messaging? What's a, what's a guy? What, what, what are you, when are you engaging in that conversation? Um, when it's funny. Okay. When it's clever. Yeah. Yeah. Like you can tell them give it a little like, thought to it. It's not just like, hey. Yeah. There was one. My favorite one was like,

I heard that you're into immature guys. So that's fun. I'm shooting my shot. That was funny. Another one like knew my Taco Bell order from a Instagram story that I had posted and he like sent it to me and like a few months later after it. And I was like, he's paying attention. That was so nice. Yeah. I like that. I like that. That could also come across a little stalkerish, but we just finished you. There's a line,

you know? We just finished you. Yeah. Yeah. And it was like intense. To me that, yeah, the stalkerish is like when it's incessant.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Or there's like multiple messages. That's like if it's like they keep going. Yeah. I guess I was repeating what you said. But yeah.

Don't. No. And this is I do that on this podcast where I'll just like repeat something he said or like repeat something someone else said and like reword it so that's my homework to not do that and by the way like that only goes for men like i love it when i hear from chicks like those are my girls yeah like oh my gosh i'm sorry i didn't see your other messages like let's chat that's typically how i feel fine yeah i agree and then uh going into the summer any any trips planned anything upcoming yeah what's next um

I'm going to Europe in August and September. So I, or, yeah, I think that's probably when I'll end up going. Nice. But I, yeah, I don't have it. I think you're going to go to Croatia. Okay. So exciting. I always want to go there.

My sister went and said it was like incredible. That's what I've heard. I think it's fully shut down in August. So keep that in mind. What do you mean? It's fully shut down. I think they like close. Well, it's like that's all Europe.

That's like peak season, I thought. Yeah, no, like Europe, like, it's definitely, no, I think that's incorrect information. I can see like, I could see like October, like a shoulder season, when it's not like coastal for sure, I bet, is shut on it. Yeah, that doesn't, like, why would they shut down? I could be super wrong and I hope I am for your travel plans. You're dealing with surge pricing and August. Surge pricing. Yeah.

You come from the urban areas. You understand politics more than you giving credit for. Between Jerry out here, Mandarin all over the place, hop-out boys snatching up family members and two wars that was supposed to be done in 24 hours. Not to mention Epstein. We had to reach out to the homie, Jamil Hill, because she's going to keep it a century.

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.
