Right now in a backlog will be identified in our lifetime. On the new podcast, America's Crime Lab, every case has a story to tell. And the DNA holds the truth. He never thought he was going to get caught. And I just looked at my computer screen.
Starting point is 00:01:22 I was just like, ah, gotcha. This technology is already solving so many cases. Listen to America's Crime Lab on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, everyone. Welcome back to Bachelor Happy Hour. I'm Joe. And I'm Serena. And we are here today with one of our favorite things to do.
Starting point is 00:01:43 It is to go over the cast bios for the upcoming season of the Bachelor Grant season. I feel like it's been quite some time since we watched. The last season we watched, obviously everyone knows this, but is Joey's season. Think about like, remember the date we liked, the Joey and Kelsey date in the bar? Yeah. Doesn't that feel like so long ago when we watched that and it was only a year? But it was thinking about it, it was three seasons ago. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:02:11 Yeah. Like, it was like we've watched Joey's season, Jen season, Joan season. Yeah. Now we're starting, starting from scratch. Grant season premiere is Monday, January 27th. So be ready for that. We just watched the trailer for Grands. Grant season, would you think?
Starting point is 00:02:29 Yeah. The first Super T's that they released. I liked it. I thought it was good. It gives you a little bit of everything. You know what I mean? We've got some girl drama. We've got some love stories. I think this is the first time we've ever had a person, a singer, have their song in the Super Tee. No, but like. Oh, yeah. No, we had a Grant original soundtrack for sure playing in the background. So that was. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:02:55 Definitely a choice. Yeah. Yeah. I can't say I was against it. I mean, it's just kind of ironic because I feel like people on the show always get called out for like trying to further their music career and I don't think that's what Grant's doing at all. So that's almost funnier to me.
Starting point is 00:03:14 You know what I mean? Like we have so many people come on this show like as genuine like singers and like musicians. Yeah, but I think he kind of low-key thinks I think he is. I mean, think about it. Think about out of the limo he did like a song on the dance for Jen season
Starting point is 00:03:29 So I think maybe Maybe Grant Loki is trying to become An artist Maybe Have his own album Grant It's a good name Grant Grant It's a good name
Starting point is 00:03:41 I will say though the end of the episode The end of the super teaser We see Grant like I can't make a decision How many times are we going to see some No no no I don't think we've seen that Yeah we have We haven't seen it where they're like at the podium
Starting point is 00:03:56 And Jesse's like, hey man, which girl are you proposing to do that? Well, it's a different variation, but it happens quite often. It does happen quite often, but I would say it's a little bit embellished usually. You know what I mean? It's like how torn are they really? Whereas this one is kind of giving like he's actually doesn't really know what he's doing. We always see the trailer of a lead at the end, be unsure. Yes.
Starting point is 00:04:24 But usually it's like music and waves, and they're like, oh, I just don't know what to do. And it's like, I don't believe you. Yeah. Like, when we get to the end, I'm always like, well, this person's getting down on one knee. Like, it's happening. I still think Grant will get down on one knee. So do I. I think we'll sing a song after.
Starting point is 00:04:42 Yeah. And then it'll be his number one hit on Instagram Reels. Wow. All right. You ready? Yeah, let's do it. Okay, we're starting off with our girl Alex. Now, Alex was in the superteaser a lot.
Starting point is 00:04:56 A lot. Yeah. It's spelled Alex with an E at the end. Okay. So, Alex, Alex with a silent E. I think it's Alex with a silent E. Yeah. She's from New Brunswick, Canada, a pediatric speech therapist.
Starting point is 00:05:10 She's 27. She's a small town girl looking for love. Canadian beauty. Grew up on a farm surrounded by goats, bunnies, and chickens. Is there any reason you're Canadian? Is there any... Do people go to New Brunswick? Yeah, it's pretty
Starting point is 00:05:24 It's like very far east coast Of Canada Okay, is there like a nightlife or anything there? I'm assuming No, I mean like I'm sure there's a bar That they go to but it's very small town Yeah, okay You know how my sister goes to Halifax for work sometimes
Starting point is 00:05:37 Sure It would be giving kind of similar-esque energy Got it She's bubbly, she's fluent in French Oh, you know who else is from New Brunswick Is our friends, your friend Dennis And his wife And she always knows how to get to the party
Starting point is 00:05:52 started. She's ready to find her man. And she can't wait to see if there's true amour between Alex and Grant. Fun fact, she's addicted to cooking competition shows, loves ketchup chips, and doesn't do karaoke ever. Have you tried ketchup chips? Yes. It's a very Canadian thing. I don't know if you guys have them here. Once I went the first time I was in Canada with you, we tried them. I think one of your parents' friends sent them to the house. Let me see. This is what she looks like. I've seen her top. a lot actually i think it comes in dress form too i yeah i like i just like it's very cute yeah like she's she's she's cute she's she makes sense like i like she has the look of somebody that i believe
Starting point is 00:06:36 will go far in this season just solely based off of her look yeah yeah she's very cute and and she's in she's in the super teaser a lot she is in it a lot so she at least makes a statement all right on to the next Next up, we have Ali Joe. Sorry. Allie Joe is from Manalapin, New Jersey. Let me see this. Allie Joe from, yeah, well, manalapen, Manalapen, Manalapen. I'm surprised Ellie Joe is not from, like, Alabama.

Starting point is 00:07:35 She works as a boxing trainer, which makes sense because her arms are jacked. And she's passionate about working in fitness.

When she's not sweating it out at the gym, she loves going to the beach, planning a trip. and trying new types of workouts. She's excited to meet our Bachelor because she's ready to find true love.

Starting point is 00:08:01 she looks a little like a, like, Topanga from Boy Meets World. Oh, she does. Like a young version of Topanga, yeah. She does look like to hanga. Yeah, but they always have, actually, you know what, I feel like it's been a while
Starting point is 00:08:15 since we got a outgoing fitness instructor, like boxing instructor woman and they're usually they're usually in some drama so I could see that because they're they're more outspoken anyone who's an instructor and stands up in front of classes for the most part those usually pretty outgoing at the very least usually yeah yeah yeah I know I know we're going to get someone like I'm a I'm a I'm a Pilates instructor and I'm actually very introverted and it's like okay well maybe but majority I don't think that's the energy she's giving I don't think she's giving introverts she's 30 years old You'll never see her leave the house without lipstick on.
Starting point is 00:08:52 She's very organized. And she dreams of shopping in Dubai. She seems like she's a bit of a girly girl. But she's also a boxing trainer. Yeah. I don't know. Maybe. Maybe.

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

What would you do if one bad decision, forced you to choose between a maximum security prison or the most brutal boot camp designed to be hell on earth. Unfortunately for Mark Lombardo, this was the choice he faced. He said,
Starting point is 00:28:27 you are a number, a New York State number, and we own you. Shock incarceration, also known as boot camps, are short-term, highly regimented correctional programs that mimic military basic training. These programs aim to provide a shock of prison life, emphasizing, strict discipline, physical training, hard labor, and rehabilitation programs. Mark had one chance to complete this program and had no idea of the hell awaiting him the next six months. The first night was so overwhelming, and you don't know who's next to you. And we didn't know what to expect in the morning.
Starting point is 00:29:04 Nobody tells you anything. Listen to shock incarceration on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Okay.

Luckily for Ella, her friends have all told her that Grant is her type. when she's not working. I actually, I like hearing that when girls go on the show and they're like, you're very much my type.

Starting point is 00:29:58 to acknowledge that they have a type than women are. Yeah. Don't you think? Yes. Like guys will never come on the show and be like, typically I only go for blondes.
Starting point is 00:30:06 Or guys are just more dogs and we'll fuck anything. I also think men are just more cautious of like, You know, like, if you came up to me and you're like, my type is typically blondes, I'd be like, okay, like screw you. Yeah. When she's not working, she's like spending quality time with loved ones, good food, live basketball games. She's happiest when she's reading romance novels, traveling around the world.

Starting point is 00:31:33 great gold jewelry on that looks really cute but I feel like this is what I would see it like you know in a magazine when there's like something written at the bottom it's like a headshot with like the writer's name and details like this is what i would be looking at it's also the only so far the only hedge hat that we've gotten like that so it definitely stands out it definitely stands out but it's a good photo jenay colorado springs colorado account coordinator 28 she's ready to shoot her shot with grant a former overseas basketball pro who is looking for a reliable and charismatic man who will restore her faith and love uh she's empathetic funny she admires her mom who taught her the true meaning of selflessness when she's not working
Starting point is 00:32:17 she likes to go out and meet new people and dance while basketball has always been her first love she's more ready than ever to leave the court behind and find true the true love of her life will her connection with grant be a slam dunk could be i think if i mean they're immediately going to have something in common yeah and now the biggest so they'll have something in common something that they could bond over and they could be competitive with the each other it's all about if they are attracted to each other after all that because she's I feel like they will be yeah I mean I think they could be too but that's gonna be that but she's definitely like I don't see her going home right at the gate no I one he's gonna be like her her
Starting point is 00:32:59 oh that's the girl who yeah that's but that's my point my point is like that I think she has an I think she has an advantage night one because of that but then I think it's almost a disadvantage if she kind of like falls in the middle of pack and he doesn't really connect with her because then that's a sign of like well she checks a lot of these boxes but i don't feel anything but it's just he doesn't like you so yeah yeah she loves taking pictures on her film camera she loves face timing and she has a rose tattoo on her right forearm coincidence hmm why would that be a coincidence because the bachelor symbol is roses yes yeah it's definitely a coincidence i like it's like yesterday when we watched Elf, and Serena pointed out that the most unrealistic thing in the movie
Starting point is 00:33:45 was that Zoe DeCinell's hair is blonde. Yeah, because she's supposed to be like dead broke, can't pay her rent, and she's like got like a fresh blonde, like flippy cut at the ends. And I was like, there's no way that's a bottle blonde. There's no way this girl can afford to maintain like a true salon blonde. Meanwhile, Will Ferrell hiked from the North Pole to Manhattan in Unile. under 12 hours. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:13 So, yeah, it might not be the most unrealistic thing, but it's definitely one of them. Next up, we have Juliana, Newton, Massachusetts, client service associate 28. Juliana is a bubbly outgoing woman who's not afraid to speak her mind or go after what her heart wants.
Starting point is 00:34:29 Ooh, that's not always the best in this situation. She comes from a big Italian family and aspires to find a lasting love like her parents. They were high school sweethearts. and Juliana hopes to meet a man who has a good heart, strong ambition, and loves to hang out with family. Whether it's dancing with her friends, a lot of, like, dancers, a lot of people, like, loving to dance. Is that just, like, a cuter way of saying they're frequenting the clubs? Like, instead of being, like, love going clubbing with my friends or, like, love getting, like, smashed on a Friday at the bar with my friends, or people just being like, oh, I love going out dancing.
Starting point is 00:35:01 No, I think it aligns a little bit with Grant. I think Grant's musical. Yeah. So I think that's kind of a way to connect with him. Where is she from? Newton, Massachusetts. Okay. She loves going out to museum, sporting events, or hanging in and watching a movie.
Starting point is 00:35:18 She has a good time wherever she goes. Cool. Juliana wants to own a dog-friendly bar one day. That's kind of fun. Raised on Frank Sinatra music and Isn't Afraid of Heights but has no interest in jumping off of something high. Same. Same girl. Let me see.
Starting point is 00:35:35 She's cute. She might go far. It's giving, like, strong personality. Yeah. Could get mixed up in some stuff. Could be totally fine. Cool. Okay, I think this is a perfect time to break the episode.
