Bros & Shows - Justice For Brett! (Bachelorette Premiere Full Recap)

Episode Date: July 10, 2024

Whats up Brose? We have dove headfirst into Bachelor nation and my goodness its comedic gold. In this episode we are introduced to Jen, who was previously a contestant on the Bachelor. A 26 year old Bostonian, Jen has spent her WHOLE LIFE (26 years...) searching for love and she is sick of the games. We get to meet our eligible Bachelors which is a wide range of entrepreneurs, start up founders and... entrepreneurs. The introductions are wild, we get "shot o clock" references, we get balloons, penis references, you name it, these boys did it. We break down our favorite first impressions, our least favorite, and we rank the guys on a friendly 0-10 scale. Sam M. takes the first impression rose, Grant beatboxes his way into our hearts (not really) and Spencer gives us anxiety. Oh and by the way? Justice for Big Brett. Our guy didn't even get a chance. Then we discuss the one on ones, Truth or Dare, and who really shone throughout the evening. After the rose ceremony, Shooter and I draft 5 eligible bachelors each to our own teams. Will one of our boys go the distance? All that and OH SO MUCH more on our first Bachelorette episode! Introducing BravBros Members!

Will you accept this bros Always Welcome to the brav bros B-R-O-S-E We are here for a very special episode So this is our first ever recap of The Bachelorette. We decided to branch out, like we said. So we're joining Bachelor Nation.

Shooter, how are we feeling about that? Pretty interesting, honestly. Very interesting to get into all of this. This is something, I don't know how the fuck we got here. You know how we always have those moments? Oh, yeah. Like, how the hell the hell we get here? Never really saw ourselves embarking.

What the fuck? Embarking. Embarking. Yeah, that's a word. Yeah, that's a word. Yeah, okay. Embarking on this, in this Bachelorette quest. It's really good.

Starting off with a real heater here. But yeah, no, never really saw us going down this path. But here we are, and I think it's a perfect fit because there are 25 dickheads on this show. And who better to talk about those assholes than us? If there's anybody that is qualified to talk about dickheads and assholes in regards to men, I do believe it's us dickheads, because that's my favorite part about watching these shows. and I'd forgotten about this because I haven't watched The Bachelor or The Bachelorette in a very long time. I had experience with the show years prior, but that was always my favorite part is the dudes on these shows.

They're so fucking funny. Like, this show is comedy gold, and it's not trying to be, but it is. Yeah, I mean, they're trying to do a lot of things. They're trying to do many things. Be funny. They're funny when they're not trying to be funny. Be funny. Yeah, when they're trying to not be funny.

Is that thing? I don't know. They're not trying to be funny. Yeah, no, it is, yeah. What did I say? I don't know. You just, like, randomly said, be funny in the middle. Be funny.

Well, that's what's lovely about this show is, look, we're just going to have a silly goose time. We're going to recap this entire season. We're going to give you our front runners, our dark horses. We're going to take some prop bets. We're going to have a draft at the end of this where we pick our teams. It's going to be teams of five. I don't want to do a... No, we can't do everything.

Because obviously there's some clunkers out there. There's some... Well, that's some, there's some guys that I just downright refused to have on my team. So I was worried that you were going to draft and then I was going to be stuck with somebody that I really didn't want. Well, there's only 18 left, so we could do a nine-person draft. No. Five and five is way better. Well, you, okay.

So leave the clunkers out there. You, how about five and five, but each person gets to pick one remainder for the other person's team? How about this? If one of our, if within the next two weeks, one of our five gets eliminated. Okay. We can pick from the pool. The remaining. Yeah.

Okay. So we've got eight guys left or maybe we only have like six, depending on how many go out. We have no idea how this works. You already watch it. I've never watched the actual. Oh, so each week, there's just a rose ceremony. Well, I understand the concept of it. I just don't know how many go home each week.

I'm not 100% on that one either. They whittle away. It becomes less and less people going home. It's obviously the more men, the more people go home. Yep. And then it'll be slightly less and less. They'll be calling some of these guys men, but yep. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, and I think that's going to be the funniest thing from all of this is, obviously, we'll be posting some content, we'll be talking about it in various social media platforms, and we're still going to get the same comments. Do you think? Straight guys need to stay out of women's business. No way. There's no way that this is like the perfect show for us to actually talk about, and they're going to still be like, nah, no.

I feel like this will be less heated. We'll be met with less pushback, maybe, less gatekeepers. Actually, no, I think, I would hope. that it's way more heat. You want more heat from Bachelor Nation? People get mad about this. That would be great. I know.

I know because it's so good. And like my favorite part about this show and Bachelor shows in general, I've, here's a big thing. I watch Bachelor in Paradise is a big rehab show. Okay. Yeah, when we were there, we, Thursday night, we were allowed to. I was just assumed it was like, I love Lucy and stuff. But, you know, when I think of rehab, I think of like one flew over the cuckoo's nest and that's not even rehab.

I don't know. It's really funny. No, they let us watch, and then we had a special night. This is so sad, thinking back, but we had a special night where we were allowed to watch TV late for an hour because it was the finale. And we wield and dealed a bunch of addicts and alcoholics were like, come on, man, and they gave in. So we got to watch. You're betting on this? Huh? You guys betting on this?

No, you can't bet in rehab. I imagine you can. I'm just asking you. I highly frowned upon. But anyway, we watched Bachelor in Paradise, and that was 2018. That was my first run through with that show. Bachelor in Paradise is like the island of misfit toys. If you don't, like, if you're good enough to be a part of Bachelor Nation,

but you weren't good enough to be a Bachelor or a Bachelorette, you might get shipped off to Bachelor in Paradise. Yeah, I feel like that's way more in line with the shows that Netflix is kind of spewing out right now. That's similar. Love Island, too hot to handle. There was another one that I just recently started watching a little bit. But yeah, that one's going to be, I think that one's going to be a lot of fun to break down. And we'll probably get into that, too.

Bachelor of Paradise is fucking great. I love The Bachelor in Paradise because they're all, like I said, the Island of Miss Fit Toys. So anyway, let's jump in to The Bachelorette. And we get to meet our Bachelorette, who is somebody from the Bachelor last season. She got to the end, I guess. Last season? I don't know.

That's the other thing. And if you think we're going to go back and do our homework on this one, you're wrong. So you're going to get our honest takes fresh out of the gate. This is what you're getting. I'm sorry. She was on the... Sorry, we don't know the lore. We don't know the...

I think you need to know the lore. Oh, the batch of lore? Yep. Yep. Mm-hmm. Good one. That's a good. That was good.

Yep. It's going to be fun. But Jen, she is 26. She's from Bastian. She's not like the other girls. Okay? They never are. They never are, especially on these shows.

She shoots hoops. She's actually got a good shot. She's good, yeah. Got a good shot. She got a great tennis stroke. She plays lax and also looks... She is athletic. Yep.

So it's actual athlete. We love to see that. She's going to PA school, physician's assistant. Sounds like she's taking a break to pursue her bachelorette. How does this work, these people that just go? Like, how long are they gone for? She's now on her second season of the bachelor slash bachelorette. So she's just taking time away.

From what I know, okay, and what I've gathered from Bachelor Nation is if you can get into Bachelor Nation, there's more shows for you. I'm not sure how. I'm not sure why. but a lot of these people are recurring. Well, I get the contestant because you could become the Bachelor or Bachelor for sure. But if you get engaged, Oh, no, people.

Oh, dude, people... Then you break it off, obviously, a week or two later. And then they come back. And then you come back, yeah. I do know there was a Bachelor. I think he got engaged as I think he did a two stint as the Bachelor. Wow. Yeah, people are going to fact check this.

So hopefully I'm right. I'm just throwing this out there. I think that happened. But, yeah. Jesse Palmer? Jesse Palmer, ex-football player. He played for the Giants, I think. Yeah, he played at USC.

That was more prominent. Yeah, so anyway, Jesse Palmer replaced Chris Harrison, who got fired from the show, the OG host of the show forever. But yeah. So, anyway, back to Jen. You know, she's been waiting her whole life for true love. She's 26 years old.

She's been waiting all of those 26 years for true love. Her parents' relationship really fucked her up. Okay, I think that's probably true. for most of these people on these shows. Yep. Doesn't have a good relationship with her dad. It's a lot of the makings for a Bachelorette on this show, I would think. Yeah.

Right? What are your first impressions of Jen? What do you, like you meet Jen? She seems, she seems lovely. She seems nice, potentially good career. Yeah. Athletic? Yeah.

Could be the whole package for the Bachelorette. Well, that's the best part is when these dudes meet her, as you like hear throughout the show, it's like, I mean, if I don't get picked, I'm never going to find love. It's like, dude, it's one night. Just take a breather. Maybe they're right. That's a sad premise.

That's a much different take on this show that I don't really care for. Let's get dark. Let's get dark with it. But we learned that she is the first Asian-American bachelorette, so she feels a little added pressure. You know, she just wants to be herself, but she wants to do right by her family and everybody. And as we know, her parents are Vietnamese immigrants who gave up everything. a pharmacist school, I believe.

The mom gave up pharmacist school to pharmaceutical school, Jesus, to give Jen her dreams, her dream life in the state. So humble background, seems like a lovely lady,

seems like a good fit for this show. I do hear that not everyone was thrilled with her selection of being the bachelorette. That's a real shame. I know. I don't care.

I hate to see it. Yeah, you hate to see all those assholes, but hey, we're here for it. So, Jen, we're on board. We're on Team Jen. Team Jen. Bring the Jennergy. Bring the Genergy.

Because we're a couple of the fucking gentleman jokes that all of these dickheads were making the whole time. And the one guy, Sam N, who had to explain the fucking joke to ad nauseum. And then as all the, they're pulling up to the place, they're like, gentlemen, gent in the limo. It's like the second limo that showed up. The other first one was just like, Jen, yeah. It's like, you're the door still shut. You guys, no one knows what's going on. Nobody knows, but the house is sick, hummingbird nest ranch.

They're not staying there. They're only there for a day. Well, they can't. Maybe they come back? Oh, well, they're going to Melbourne. Melbourne? Yeah, they go down to Melbourne. That's where they hit it at the end of this.

Spoiler alert. Sorry. Quick, actually, shout out to our Aussie fans on the Zoom, our community Zoom that we are doing tonight, which, when you're hearing this, it was last night. It was last night. But I was insulted, our Aussie listener that was in the community Zoom, said my accent was terrible. I've always thought it was pretty good. I tend to agree. I was told when I lived in Perth, by the way, no big deal.

When I lived there, that I had a good Aussie accent. So maybe it's gotten worse over the years. But let's start meeting some of the dudes. Are you ready to meet some dudes? Yeah, let's meet some fellows here. I wanted to do a bit of a, and obviously we've got our draft going later, but I want you to tell me, and we might have some of the same here, give me your five favorite. it. Before we get into like the good details and funny moments that happened, tell me which five stood out to you. All right. I'm going to start out with the obvious choice, I think, for everyone.

I mean, this is how my brain works. Sam M. Yep. He walks out of the car. I'm like, yeah, this guy's a smoke show. Oh, so you're just basing it on like vibes because he didn't do much. He just pulled out a shot. He's like, it's a shot o'clock, dude. What is the shot o'clock joke? It has to be a joke that she made on The Bachelor is what I gathered from it. And they're doing, quote, unquote, their homework. And the fact that he thought that he was going to be the standalone because of that. Now, I knocked him for that. It's funny, if you saw my ranking system in here, I gave them, I rated all of their looks out of 10. Good. Um, was pretty stingy for most of them. But I would also do like plus one for height. I did a minus one for the shot joke. Oh, wow. You get minuses and pluses here. So I was very in depth.

How the fuck long did it take you to watch this show? Oh, I was actually moving pretty pretty quick you'd be surprised yeah but pausing and staring at them no we look at his jawline but no sam m 27 he's a contractor from charleston he's got a bit of a bradley cooper voice so i enjoyed that about him so that's your we don't have to rank them right now just give me like your five that is your top guy here we go here we go i'll just i'll run through him real quick ready sam m grant thomas n this one might surprise you a little bit but he's my dark horse Spencer Oh God

Oh yeah Only not because he's my favorite Yeah I guess I should save that For the draft This is five favorites Yeah yeah yeah yeah All right Sam M

Grant Brian Fucking love Brian What the fuck RIP Brian Brett Brett Yeah Oh Brett's the big guy

Brett Big Brett Oh dude I thought you were going No no no no not the aesthetics consultant He's the other one is shot a clock What is that while we're on this The aesthetics consultant No no

Your design Can't do it this yet we can you want to do it already fine i don't yeah no no i want to get to the jobs because there's a few of them like my dark horse spencer yeah uh actually no he's not my dark i take that back because i forgot he's a pet entrepreneur which piss the word entrepreneur already pisses me off um so we'll get into all of that later but let me get back i keep getting sidetracked here grant sam m sam n thomas n and jeremy which is surprising because Jeremy's a douchebag.

Yeah. He pulls up in the car and talks about it. We need to figure out if the P word is penis, pecker, or prick? I think it's penis. Why'd they bleep out penis? I don't know. ABC. Sexual innuendo or something.

Can't say penis on ABC? Maybe not. Oh, interesting. This isn't Bravo anymore. I know. Yeah, we ventured into cable television, different world. Network, network television. Network.

So that's my five. That's your five. I'm going to go through my five really quick. My favorite is Aaron. A, Aaron. He knows how to play the game. You hate him? I hate him. I hate a lot of guys.

I didn't really hate him, but it looks like there was a bit of a lingering moment there. They're talking about being adventurous. Obviously, his twin won. Noah Erb. No, he won Paradise. He won Paradise. He got engaged on Paradise. Yeah, so he won Paradise.

Yeah, whatever. But I feel like he knows how to play the game. He's setting himself up. It's nepotism at its best. Oh, wait. This is different. You're supposed to... Dude, but his brother was already on the bachelor.

I understand that. He's got some tips in there. I thought the first five were just your first impression, not who you think's going to like... No, I just have them in there. Okay. All right. Just the way that it worked out. Okay.

All right. Fucking relax. I'm just trying to understand. It's just the bachelorette. Let's calm down here. Just relax, buddy. All right. So then I did also have Thomas N.

Okay. Yeah, he's... I like Thomas Nguyen. I like Thomas Nguyen a lot. It's a win-win. Jonathan, who showed up in the gauze. like Jonathan, that was a good move. Big fan of that. When we discuss how uncomfortable all of these men were with his cheeks being out. Yeah, right?

Guys, settled down. It's his ass. Not to mention, what was Austin ran through the house naked? Austin ran through, that he's the mullet guy. Nobody said anything about him. Oh, I got to put Austin back on my list. Yeah, Austin's on my list. He's my mullet. He's my four. Yeah, I got to have Austin back. So I'm going to kick off Sam N. See ya. I'm Austin's on my list. And then I'm throwing Devin in there. No. Yeah. Boo. Yeah. Not my Devin. Don't do this. No, I wasn't doing that. I've got Devin in my five spot, just because there was something there.

Something, some is a little weird connection there. And I also, she said it in a sweet way, but she did compare him to Pete Davidson. And I was like, ah. Oh, you didn't like that. I personally didn't like it, but it looked like she liked it. So I've got him up there. Everyone likes Pete Davidson. I know.

That's what I thought about. But he also has a foot fetish. So, you know. Didn't care for that moment. No. No. She was leading into it, though, too. We're going to talk about moments in this show.

Yeah, that's, there's my five. Okay. All right. That's interesting. Now, I'm just going to run through everybody and give my rankings as far as looks go, because this can go quickly enough and everyone can kind of chime in and see what they think. Oh, shit, I left Marcus off my list. Marcus is big for me. Yeah. Yeah. Let me redo mine real quick because now I got it. It's Sam M. Marcus, Grant, Thomas N, and Austin. That's a solid five. All right. So big problem with Grant. Okay. Huge problem, Grant. What's your big problem with Grant?

Fucking beatboxing up there, beatboxing into rapping about what he's doing and then beatboxing again later. Well, the beat boxing. And then trying to beat her in basketball, like, dude. That was smooth. Enough. No, that was smooth because he all, he, she was biting her lip. I think he's still mad about the beatboxing. So, yeah.

Yes. Yeah. The first beatbox, I was like, I hate it. But you got to figure out a way to stand out. And I'm a big, big advocate of the corny. intro when you're flirting back when I flirted fucking forever ago

I was a big proponent you know what my go-to line was you throw a sugar packet that says sugar on it and you say oh I'm sorry you dropped your name tag and every time it's like I learned that in like a diner I learned that from my brother and it's one of those moves

you can go one of two ways of pick up lines you can either try to be suave which nine times out of ten you're going to look like an idiot or you can go with the corny line and get a laugh and go And then you got your intro. Fair enough. So that was my go-to.

So I don't mind the corny route, especially on the show where you need to stand out in a certain way. If you're able to pull off suave, I think that's how you get the massive leg up on this competition. But you've got to be able to pull off the corny. So the initial beatbox didn't love it. I was okay with it. When he did it with the boys, too. That's the problem. When he beatboxed and Brian rapped, I hated both of them.

I hated all. Yeah, that was terrible. That was a fucking horrible move. And that's what happened when you get a bunch of dudes like this in a room where they all think they're the guy. This is what they do. They blow out their chest and they go, oh, we're all hot and we're all cool and we're all going for the same woman. Let's not talk about it. They kiss, though.

Earmuffs. That's going to piss me off. You understand what you're getting into, gentlemen. Gentlemen. What the hell were we doing? Ranking your looks. Ranking the looks. Okay.

So here we go. Starting out with Marcus, I gave him a seven and a half out of ten. Okay. Getting to Marvin, seven and a half out of ten. Sam, 6.7 out of 10. Grant, eight. He gets an eight. Sam M, eight as well.

Thomas N, 6.8, plus one for personality. Okay, you're not adding that to the rank. You just get a plus one next to it. It's like an asterisk. All right. Brendan, six and a half. Dakota, six. Yeah.

Down. He's low. Not a fan of the bleach hair. No, not at all. Kevin 6. Spencer 6.2. Brian, 5.7. Matt, 6.4. Austin, 7.3.

Ricky, 7.2. Thomas A. A, 7.7. Jonathan, to be determined. Because he has the gauze on his face. Once he's determined, 7.5. Okay. All right. A. Aeron, 6.7. Okay. Not a fan of A.A.A.A.

No, not a fan of A.A.A. Jeremy. Jeremy was funny when he pulled up in the car because all the dudes wanted to bag him. Like, that's a sick car. Does that really work? He wasn't the one who did it. What do you mean?

Later, it was, Brian was telling her to do that. Oh, Brian revved it, but he pulls up having it a little bit. Anyway, let me get back to this. Jeremy 6.8, Dylan 7.4, John, 7.2. Big Brett, 6.7. Thought he was a handsome gentleman. I think it's bullshit what happened to him. We're going to talk about that.

Jahan. I wrote T. It's Jahan 6.9. Devin 6.4. Hakeem 6.8. Okay. Fairly fair, I think. Fairly fair.

People all seem to understand, like, our ranking system. We're not throwing out eights and nines, willy-nilly. No, no, no. That's not one truly hot-ass dude. There's not like a 9-plus in this show. No, there's not. They might grow to. that via personality in moments or whatever you that's where you know reality really matter yes all right

that's what all of them keep saying on this show is that a however that one oh does matter i'm amy nicholson the film critic for the l a times and i'm paul shire an actor writer and director you might know me from the league v or my non-eligible for academy award role in twisters we come together to host unspooled a podcast we talk about good movies critical hits Fan favorites, must season, and in case you missed them.

Welcome to Night Vale is available wherever you get your podcasts. But let's talk about some jobs, because I wrote down a few that I need some introspective. Yeah, bring out a couple here, and I'll give you my opinion. So I actually need to know, health and safety manager, Big Brett.

What does he do? Step below HR at a factory? That's what I'm, yeah, yeah, I'm kind of, that's. Kind of wanders around with a yellow vest on and a hard hat. Yeah. People to put their hard hats on. Okay. You were on the same page there.

Jonathan, creative director. Could be fucking anything. Right? Very vague. Is he a creative director at a company? Marketing firm, maybe? Is he a middle school director in the play? Probably not that low.

Somewhere in between, though. All right. Where I went and where you went. Fair enough. We got a lot of sales reps in this. Now let's get to Brian. Aesthetics consultant. I don't know what that is.

Interior design is the best I can come up with. Or does he show up at weddings? and he's like, I don't know how the flow. Eh. That's his... Different drapery. Meh.

Not great. $2,000. Thank you, Brian. Or is it aesthetic, like, your aesthetic? Is he like a... It is, like a fashion. Fashion guy? I think when you go pure aesthetics,

it's got to be some sort of interior design or some sort of backyard. That dude's not... No shot is fucking syringe shot Brian going to tell me how to decorate a room. No, definitely. not but he doesn't get to the interior design aspect it's it's probably like he walks into an event space

and says no or yes that's not a job none of these are jobs most of these aren't jobs what fuck is a pet entrepreneur wait no he's the guy that when you get you've seen it on instagram it's like you send a picture of your dog in oh i know but like a portrait back of them in like old english garb i wouldn't i would not describe that as a pet entrepreneur wait he makes it sound as though it's extraordinarily lucrative and he is just lucky to have this job it seems like she's into that is he the first guy to ever put a picture of a dog on a phone case maybe i don't know oh well that's different there's no way and dakota's a somaliay which i always think is a douchebag i don't yeah when i hear somalia it it sounds cooler on paper i think

and then i immediately think pretentious it's spelled cool it is s o m m uh oh i er what Somalier. I wrote it down wrong. Semelier. S-O-M-M-N-N-N-C-R-O-M-M-E-L-I-E-R. S-O-M-M-M-E-L-I-E-R. That doesn't make sense. I guess it's French.

I don't know. Trust the order-Cress. Okay, fine. What else do we got here? There was one more that I wanted to talk about. Retirement advisor, that's obvious. That one's a legitimate job. Army Ranger, Marcus, kind of wins the whole thing with that.

Sure. Retired. Yeah, retired Army Ranger. I'm not sure what he does. Did he say what he does now, Marcus? Wow. Not signing off on that one. Oh, just this one, Sam, who is, by the way,

I'm not ever one to nitpick on how you want to, if you want to get a manicure as a dude or a pedicure as a dude, whatever you want to do. And I'm not nitpicking here. I've just never seen it. He's curling his eyelashes. Yep. He's an entrepreneur. Yeah, and then she called out his eyelashes.

He did. So, I mean, at least you got the payoff. Yeah. Interesting move. Very interesting move. He's an entrepreneur, which to me means he doesn't have a job. And I think Jahan was a startup fellow. Yeah, that was a startup fella.

It's a lot of non-jobs. A lot of non-jobs. Yeah. Which makes sense because you have time to go on the bachelor. Okay, cool. Now, do you think the last thing I want to do before we start talking about some interactions and impressions during the evening. Jeremy doesn't own that car, right?

I don't think so. And then he matched the inside of his suit with it. Oh, no. I didn't see that. Yeah, he said that he blew it in from New York. He was a, what is he, a real estate investor? Real estate, oh. Real estate broker.

Broker. Well, it said investor on the thing. Did it? Yeah. Oh. Yeah, definitely said investor on the thing. He may have described himself as a broker, but it's relatively the same. Real estate investor implies I have more money.

Yes. Does he? Potentially. if he's able to fly his car out there I'm just saying I'm giving you the information that I was giving it so I don't know what you want for me

taking this at face value that's fair I just I don't think that's his car I think that's bullshit honestly which guy do you think was the best as far as their impression goes like which one did you see and you go okay I fuck with that guy

I mean obviously the guy who walked up with the puppies Sam Sam was a great move Was that Sam? Which Sam was that? Sam N? Sam N with the hair, yeah.

I didn't like his hair. That's why I wrote down hair. That's fair. Sam N with the hair. Sam N with the hair. Who's the love virgin? That is, yeah, the guy with the puppies, I think it was Thomas. Thomas A.

Showed up with the puppies. That's obviously a good call. He also, though, as he's saying, he's like the puppies. Did you catch? Kind of loyal. Pretty loyal. Pretty loyal. Cute.

cuddly pretty loyal leaving the door open yeah i don't want to set the bar too high when i cheat on you i told you i was pretty loyal that doesn't mean you know dogs they sniff other dogs butts yeah don't be here relax jen i i mean the quirky ones are obviously always going to resonate a little bit more i think jonathan's played i think jonathan's definitely played i think that was the most creative one especially because he went as far as having the the wristband that said love sick on it. If Hakeem had done an up thing, I thought it was going to be up.

It would have been way better. I thought it was going to be up when he started walking in. And he's like, you know that first like five minutes that destroyed all of our childhoods from up? That would have been better. I want what led to that. Yeah. Okay.

Perfect. Worded. Sure. Yeah. But I thought that's what he's going for. I did too. And I was like, that's not a bad play. He didn't at all.

He said, let's pop this. Like, let's pop off. He was like, this is how I felt because I was on cloud mine floating. He's a dork. Yeah. Keem's a dork. He's a dork. I don't know how the fuck he got a rose.

Because the remaining seven, I mean, one dude shows up with ginger shots. Yep. That's not a great move. See ya. Yeah. Bye. Who else was on the chopping block? Brett doesn't they?

Justice for Brett. I want to talk about that. Let's talk about Brett. Because Big Brett rolls up there. Look, he looks great. It's a great suit. He's got energy. He's confident.

But this is what sucks about this show is as soon as he walked up, everybody watching goes, hmm, going to be tough. He didn't really get a chance either. We didn't get to see that much of an interaction with him. Justice for Big Brett. You could tell during the one-on-ones where they all start splitting off from the group and talking to her, she is like hand in hand with pretty much every guy, and then Brett is about two seat lengths away from him. Yes.

Is that a confidence issue? Maybe she wasn't into it. Maybe not because he's doing splits on the dance floor. He pulls a splits. I'm just... Better than I could do. or you could do it with your hands. Oh, absolutely.

I would be down for the count. But justice for big Brett. I think that Brett deserved a rose. He deserved a chance to show up and show that you don't have to be a, all these men are giant, tall dudes. Let's get a normal guy in there, and he's a handsome fella. Yep. We didn't get to meet him. Nope.

Didn't get to know him. And he got whacked. Fucking Hakeem over Brett. Bullshit. Wild. This show is rigged already, and I won't stand for it. I am, we're starting this platform now. Justice for Brett.

you heard it here folks I even pointed at the right camera justice for Brett but anyway I think my honestly my favorite impression right out of the gate and it's probably not fair

because he went first was Marcus because it just seemed the most genuine and he pulled the Army Ranger thing which is that's going to want up most guys there he just seems like Marcus seems like a solid dude he turned the whole like

I mean he had like a crazy scare while he was on tour a grenade rolled in didn't he turn that directly into and now I'm looking to find love or something I was like holy shit uh yeah well no he said he hadn't dated for five years yeah five years since the incident and he has not dated since and he's ready to put himself back out there he's setting the bar really high i know i'm sorry but like 50 different thoughts went through my mind with like lines that he could have used that

would have been like all right that's good wait are they i don't know if i want to say anything yeah this is our first ever matcherette episode let's not make it our last. How about that? Why don't you save those? Go home and save them into your pillow. You'll just tell you after the show. You're psycho. Well, let's talk about the evening. The interactions, the

one-on-ones, I thought that the best move, and I remember this from the show, from watching this in the past, you got to get out there and you got to get to her first. So Sam M. pulling up and saying, hey, let's go have a little quick chat. The easiest way to do it, too, because all you

have to do is sit down with her, just put on a little bit of moves and basically just say, that was pretty wild. How about that ride in? That's it. How about these guys? What are you thinking right now? How are you feeling? You got to be overwhelmed.

It's just so fucking easy to do. Are you excited, though? It's got to be exciting for you. I'm excited to be here. You look stunning. Yep. And it shows that you're confident, but in reality, you're really not that confident. You're just jumped out there first so that you can get it out of the way.

And then you can even leave it with, you know what? I don't want to hold you up. Yep. I know you got other people to talk to. I just wanted to have my time with you. Oh, yeah. I'll catch up with you later. Hug, maybe a kiss on the cheek, walk away.

That's it. Good move. And at the end of the night, she tells him, I've been thinking about you all night. That's the first guy in there. Hell yeah. Nicely done, sir. That was very well done. But the next guy up is Spencer.

And this is where we get the pet portrait entrepreneur. This is why he's my dark horse for this show. I think he's going to do better than he should because she digs it. Like, she's into the puppy portraits. Yeah. I guess. Sure. But I was also having a hard time reading her reactions.

My problem with Spencer. And look, I forget who the other one. Oh, Hakeem was obviously incredibly nervous. Jahan was wildly nervous this entire time. He made me uncomfortable. Yeah, I was so uncomfortable. And I'm like, look, I know that a lot of these guys are just putting on a bit of a show, especially when it's just the one-on-one cameras.

but John was desperately nervous. He was looking away from the camera. He couldn't even make eye contact with the camera. He was freaking out. But when it comes down to Spencer, he is a thousand percent the type of guy. He was like covering his ears during the kiss conversation. Oh, yeah.

He is going to freak out watching her talk to other guys. And there's always moments where they steal her away. And if you're a little bit later in the game, you have to watch her go off into the, they've got a little love shack or whatever the fuck they call that thing. I do know that much about it. Oh, the room. The room, yeah.

It's pretty much for, like, your conjugal visit. Yeah, it's pretty much that. He's going to watch her walk away, and he's going to have an absolute meltdown. I think that's going to happen. I think that if Jahan sticks around, he is also going to... They're going to be together or being like, this is grouse. Has anybody ever said no to the rose? Like, you know what?

I'm just not feeling it anymore. I don't know. Probably. It's been on for fucking ever. I would imagine at some point somebody said no to the rose. Yeah, yeah, probably. We accept this rose. No.

No. No, I won't. You kissed him. Yeah, you smooched him. You were supposed to smooch me. Gross. But it's even funnier. And, like, we're saving the Rose selection ceremony.

But just to speak on Jahan's nerves and Spencer's nerves, when Spencer gets picked, he goes up there and goes, oh, God, I was so nervous. Like, don't. Just try to be a little cool, man. Just be a little cool. I appreciate you being yourself, buddy. But this is also a game. Yeah. You're in it to win it.

If you don't play the game right, as we saw from our boy Moes, who's like, truth or dare, truth, do you ghost chicks? All the time. All the time. That was a terrible, terrible move by Moes. Moes Dangerous. That was what he called himself. Moes Dangerous.

Apparently that's his Instagram handle too because I was looking at stuff afterwards. But, yeah, him walking up there talking about ghosting people all the time and then just sitting back down, nope. That's, nope. Because she's looking for reasons to get rid of guys. That's enough of a reason. Just give her one. And she's like, even if you had a little bit of a feeling, if you're on the fence, it's like, oh, I can get rid of him.

He's going to ghost me. Yep. Damn it, Moes. Stupid. You're an algebra teacher. Do some math. Use your head. I am thankful nobody broke out a guitar.

I know. This is a big time to, like, walk out with a guitar, especially in the beginning. Then you still have it and you're just playing guitar for all the guys sitting around. Nope. Counterpoint. If, let's say that did happen, because I'm trying to figure out where your barometer is with guitars. Because I know you're like anti, as you sit next to one, anti that move, which I am as well.

Now, if a dude breaks out a guitar and starts playing, and he's like John Mayer, he's got the voice, he plays it well, it doesn't matter. If he did it to walk up to her with the guitar, fine. That's first impressions. Everything is open there. When you're sitting down in that room, just passing some time talking to people and you're playing your guitar, nope, see you. Who else do we get a song from Ricky? Yeah, Ricky. Ricky, he got whacked.

He's no longer with us. gone, Moses is gone, Brett's gone. We'll get through the rest of them. I forget the rest of them. Yeah, we'll remember by the end. You don't really have to. Nope. They go on. See you. We'll try our best.

wherever you get your podcasts. We get truth or dare. which that's where Austin with the mullet this is a this is a good dare to get I think so I thought so too yeah it shows that you

Jonathan's ass cheeks are already out so why not well that's a big problem yeah that's a big problem for everybody he was sitting right there he's not shitting on the couch it's ass cheeks man grow up like everyone kept talking about this man's cheeks grow up guys everybody kept talking about him yeah and looking at

oh god I keep looking at his ass that's a you problem if you're having an issue with it Your eyes up here, bud. Yeah, his eyes are up there. Look at the gauze on his head. Quit looking at his cheeks. Anyway, that's a good one to get because it shows one, you're fun. Yep.

Two, you'll take a little risk. And three, if he got a good body, which, you know, it looks like he's got a decent body. Yeah, but the fucking tiger briefs, dude. Is that tiger or lion? I don't, it doesn't matter? Jungle cat. Does it matter? Yeah, jungle cat briefs on.

It's a bold move, but that's the other thing. Did he know, did he put those on? Like, I hope I get to show these. bad boys up a thousand percent right or does he just wear them all the time both yeah i would imagine the ladder is way worse i the latter is what it is he definitely has a drawer full of briefs with different jungle cats on problem that's not good but that's the kind of people you're going to get on these shows we're not going to get like a home run you're going to get a guy that wears lying briefs and probably has a reason for it he probably watches some instagram channel where he's like oh

i wake up before him and do an ice bath then i take my college and shake i put on my lion briefs because my balls are the king of the jungle and I go conquer the business world. And he watches that on repeat. What was his job? Entrepreneur. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

That's that's all right. Austin was, uh, sales extinguisher. Oh, he had the extinguisher. He used the extinguished. He's in sales. He's a sales rep. So he's a sales extingishes sales. Sales are going too well.

We got to stop it right now, guys. Temperate. Anybody's seen my lion underwear? No, but being in sales, that is exactly why he wears those priests. And he ice baths every, if you ask Austin, 1,000% do you ice bath in the morning. Yes, I do. Cold plunge, 5 a.m. every day before I fuck the business world.

Yeah. That's what I do, because I'm in sales and I'm the best. I'm the extinguisher. I put out fires. That works, yeah. You're welcome. pretty well you're welcome but we got to talk about sam n uh as as he's talking to jen because you know his intro i'm out on saying i hate sam n so the fact that i put him on my list was

not intentional no but you think that he's got a good shot probably no i think spencer's got a good he's my dark horse sam and i think is not gonna if he he has a shot i do think that he's in it a little bit he can because he's got the innocent approach and she seems okay with that he needs do stop saying love virgin he's saying it in confessionals he's saying it to her that's not a thing i thought that she really liked me because i i but love virgin like dude what that's not a thing but also i and like this is just how my brain works with these shows he was the last one to get a rose this time he'll be like the first or second to get a rose next week no i don't think so thousand percent no shot book it book it book it that was aggressive okay look it right now i just fucking

booked it's booked asshole there's no way that this guy makes it more than three weeks i take it back i don't think he's got a shot i think that that that will get you in the door which it did yep she needs more than that all right she's 26 she's been looking for love her whole life it's been 26 years he's looking for love too he's never been in love maybe she looked and she's like you know what i'm also a love version how about that we're in this together boo i don't know she didn't say that i know but she could be thinking it i just think that it's not a good move to keep saying love virgin it makes me physically uncomfortable to keep hearing it yeah that's fair it's not a thing yeah you'd say i've never been in love before he's also got the same name as the other sam who is doing

really well sam m first impression uh rose they're pretty much opposite ends of this they are honestly yeah she might want to just get rid of sam end just because there's too many sams that let me keep the good sam and get rid of the other one yeah i want to i want to i want to bang this Like, that's, here it is. Sam M. Sam M. Fox. Yeah. Sam N.

He cuddles. Yeah. All right. And the cuddler's not winning this show. I'm sorry. It's not going to happen. See how it plays out. You have a lot of money on Sam N, it seems.

Just for next week, I just think it's going to be a big turnaround. Maybe we do need to stay week to week. Yeah. And not get too far ahead of ourselves here. We're going to get to our draft here shortly. Don't worry. We'll have our last say. but we need to talk about Jeremy.

The fucking car move is incredible. I like the move. I don't hate the move. Not because of the car. No. But because of the isolation. Oh, that's a bad way to say it. Whoa.

The old Dennis Reynolds effect. The dentist system. No, no, no. Not the dentist system. The separation, not the isolation. That's a terrible word for that. The separation from the group is important because, but it backfired. You would think that by getting her out there in the car, he's going to have a chance to go.

Further away, yeah, you're not sitting on the veranza. The what? Veranda. Veranda? No. It's veranda. No, it's veranda. I think I just merged two words.

You did. There's another one. Nope, we're not doing this, but I'll think of it later. No, but when he's out there in the car, you do think that's a solid move until Brian. Well, Brian's a frat boy. Fuck, Brian's a fucking frat boy. He's a douche. I do not like Brian.

He's loud. He's got that. You won't laugh. No. He was rapping afterwards. Like, no. He was. And he's definitely the guy that thinks he's good at freestyle rapping.

Yeah. He's why people think that white guys can't rap. Correct. Guys like Brian. Yeah. Because he'll go to a party and say things to people like, yo, drop me a beat dead serious. Please don't. Don't do that.

Anyone ever, actually. Hey, Grant, stop beat boxing for Brian. Please. I can't even leave boxing in general. Don't do this every week. You're going home. I think that's a good thing to not do. I can't wait.

Don't they do like fan votes at some point too? Oh, do they? Some sort of fan vote stuff. I'll get into that. I like that a lot. I don't know if they can. Is this live? Some of it's live.

I think there's live moments. There's give me some live moments. There are live rose ceremonies. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the thing. Sick. Let's get involved.

That's flood the ballots. I think we can try. I think a lot of people vote on this shit. But back to Brian walking up on Jeremy like that. Usually, I've seen this move in the past. People do steal time. And that's a move of theirs to show that I'll take initiative. I'm not afraid to walk up to a guy in a car like that.

Brian, by the way, Brian drives a Saturn. Yeah. Without a doubt. They still make Saturn? No. But he has one. He definitely has a Saturn. And it's the same car he drove back in college.

It's probably still got a dent in it that he tells. tells a stupid story about one night, me and my boys were so fucked up and Tommy hit his head right here. Yep. That's Brian. He goes out there. It seems to work, though, because Jeremy gets a rose. Brian also gets a rose.

But even where he's sitting there, this is, he doesn't have a move other than, oh, red the car. No, we're having fun. I'm a fun guy. Here's a syringe. I'm going to shoot down your throat again. Up top, bro. Yeah. Actually, you know what?

That kind of points to that definitely not being Jeremy's car. Because if it was his car, there's no way he's going to let this guy sit in his car. That's what I thought. Yeah, I think you're right. But he did have... I like the approach of, you know what, I'm not going to get into an altercation with this guy right in front of Jen. I thought he played it wrong. Jeremy?

Yes. Oh, I think he played it right. I think he played it right by avoiding altercation. The fact that he got that sullen about it where it seemed like he was... He was crying. He seemed upset. Yeah. And it could have been...

What are you talking to up there, Ricky? Was that Ricky? I think Ricky went home to. Because then he goes up there and you hear the... He goes, well, what was that? And that made me think it was more of a rental because he's like, don't run, don't do that. Don't rev the car.

Because if you break it, I got to pay for it. He's probably rented by ABC. Oh, loophole. Yeah. No, no way. You got to pay for your own. There's no way they paid for. You can pay for your own bits?

There's no way they paid for Akeem's balloons. Yeah. No shot. And then you've got to pay for your own bits. Where'd they get the dogs? The dogs were definitely like ABC hat. That's an ABC move. Because then Jesse Palmer takes the dogs.

Yeah, but if he gets the dogs. then do you think he still has the dogs no i would love to yeah jesse palmer probably stills that's what i mean yeah i would love the dogs to show up in this in melbourne that'd be sick oh yeah that'd be nice the dogs in there all season i don't really know if i want puppies on a plane for what 18 hours how is it a private plane maybe maybe they do laps up and down the aisle regardless for folks in the wrong thing here uh i thought he didn't play it that well i think that he should have been the moments up Brian got you, because here's the thing.

If Jen says, no, no, I'm going to talk to Jeremy. It's one thing. But Jen was like, oh, okay, once she's, like, entertaining the conversation with Brian, play it off. All right, man, like, here's the key. Ha, ha, ha, I'll see you in there. He didn't even have his own key. No, well, he threw it to Palmer. He goes, he threw it to Palmer.

Yeah, he goes, yo, Palmer, hold on to these. Brian got it back from Palmer. Yeah. So Palmer was playing the game. Yeah. I didn't like it on Jeremy's part. I thought Jeremy didn't handle it well. Jeremy should have been smoother about it.

He seemed to actually butt hurt, which is a tough. You can't be butt hurt night one. Everyone's vying for attention for a rose on night one. Don't be butt hurt because Brian, Brian's not going to win. He's not a threat. No. He's a big, he's a golden retriever. And now that, no, it's bad for golden retrievers.

He's, I'm not even a dog. He's fucking Brian. Yeah. Fuck Brian. I don't like Brian. Anyway, let's keep going. We're almost done. We get the Grant one-on-one B-ball.

I thought that was a good movie. only because it would have ended in a first kiss if Thomas N didn't come and cock block him. For the second time, Thomas N coming out there. You already had your time, Thomas. Playing the game. You're playing the game. And there's nothing wrong with that.

If you can find a way to do it and still get a rose where you're not being annoying, now it will get annoying if it's just going to be a thing that's like, I don't want you kissing other guys. That's part of it. You know, conjugal visits. We've got to figure out what that's actually called to make it sound a little sweeter

I like the Love Shack. Love Shack's fine. We can make it a little Aussie when they're down there, but... Well, it's an Aussie. We can make it a little... I don't know. The koala's nest? The kangaroo pouch.

Sure. The kangaroo pouch. Yeah, let's go out... It's nice and cozy. Let's go do a tussle and a kangaroo pouch. Now, that sounds worse, actually, but... I thought the one-on-one B-ball was a good move. One, because you know you're going to win,

because he was a college hooper, he played overseas. That's a good move to get a kiss. And I think that you have a leg up on the competition when you know you're one of the most attractive guys there. So I think that he already knows because anyone that thinks that this first night is based off of connection, it's 90% are you attracted to him. Yeah. You're going to get whacked if you're not. If you think I'm wrong, look at Brett. Yeah, poor Brett.

RIP Brett. And he's a handsome fella. I'm not dogging him. I'm just saying. that it's bullshit yeah this is on jenn yeah this is on jenn yeah you do better jenn because i don't like that but the first impression rose goes to sam em no surprise there i think that it was either going to be him who else did you have getting that rose i had him grant or marcus thomas and yeah he was up there um grant for sure so yeah i think it was just the three of them

in my mind yeah i agree with that but we get to the rose ceremony and it's really funny Spencer explaining fire to people and how fire works you know something's a slower burn some it takes a long time to light the bonfire sometimes it burns and then it burns out thanks spence appreciate you spence love it that's

riveting stuff pal but he does enough to make it through who didn't make it through can we tell you Ricky didn't get through uh did you write down it to make it so who didn't make it they got rid of 70 of these fellas and honestly you're not even going to know these names because they didn't really

a whole lot of screen time aside from Brett. Well, hold on. Let me try it. I know. Brett Moes, we already talked about. Ricky. Ricky. Dakota.

I thought you were still guessing. No, no, no. Dakota with the blonde hair, Somaliang, gone. Kevin, didn't really get anything on a Kevin. Kevin's, you can't walk in there eating hot peppers, dude. Yeah. That was a terrible. He's trying to talk to.

Then he's sweating. He's sweating. He's trying to talk to, but he can't catch his brazen. Yeah, just, oh, man. Oh, bad idea. Um, anyway, I'll see you in there. Water? I'm going to get some water.

Yeah, bad move, Kevin. Yep. And then we have Brendan. Oh, right. I remember Brendan. Yep. Matt was the ginger shot guy. Matt had no shot.

No. As soon as he walked up there with ginger shots, I might, nope, you lose. Yep. Get out of air. And we had Brett and Ricky. Brett and Ricky. RIP, Brett. Ricky, I thought had a chance, too.

But Ricky had a chance. Maybe, I bet he was on the bubble. I even still thought that Moes had a chance because they spent time outside showing what he was doing with the whole algebra equation leading to i heart you whatever but if you didn't say the ghosting thing i know that's all it really was one bad one bad step which is a really bad step there's 25 dude she's got a whittle down seven you know that she's going to go with oh you gave me a reason she's looking for a reason play the fucking game guys just a little bit just a little bit well now we need to i i want to go for your give me

Your three front runners, your dark horse pick, because mine are changed now, that we know we discuss things, and then we're going to do our draft. And then we're going to get to some questions. All right, fair enough. All right. Front runners, obviously. We've got Sam M. Yeah.

I mean, that's, that's objective because he got the first impression. Yeah, for sure. Thomas. And, yeah. Thomas N. I've got Devin as my third favorite with his foot fetter scene. Right. We didn't talk about the foot fetter scene.

Okay. Yeah, we don't have to talk about the foot fetish scene because I don't really want to. No, she said I shaved my feet, and then he said, I'm going to bite out bad boys. Yeah, and then she's like, I will give you a bite if we could have to trust you. Okay. I have to trust you to give you a bite of my foot. Yeah, not feeling it. No.

Gross. And how dark. That was me saying I trust you. How much of a dark horse do I really want to go here? Somebody really think has a chance to win, but did not, like, Maybe they have a chance to win because they're not traditional, or maybe they didn't have a great impression, but you think they can come back and do better.

Okay. One of those two. In that case, I'm going to go with... I'm going to go with Dylan. Okay. Because he's also a doctor, or he's going to be a doctor. That's fair. I didn't get a ton of screen time, not a lot of connection there.

He still got through and just kind of snuck in there under the radar. Okay. I like that. Just, it's a dark horse right now. If I really wanted to go, like, actual dark horse, I would probably go with either. Dylan's got a chance. He's a striking fellow.

Yeah, I would probably go with Sam N as my dark, my actual dark horse. Yeah. Yeah, I'm going to go dark horse as Spencer, just because the fact that he's still around tells me that she sees something and that maybe she's, she likes the fact that he's such a weiner. I don't know. Okay.

But my three front runners are, Sam M. Let's put him out. He is obviously. So my three, other than Sam M, are Marcus. I think Grant's going to have issues. I think he's playing the cool guy thing.

It's going to get tired. Thomas N. Definitely. He seems genuine as genuine as you can be on this show. And my third one, I think you're right with Devin. Yeah. I'm not going to say Devin,

but I do see what you're saying with Devin. I'm going to go number three is, you know what? Weirdly enough, I wrote it down here, Dylan. Oh, look at that. That's my front runner. Okay. I think Dylan played it well because he was subtle. Yep.

He's handsome. He didn't come on too strong. He's going to medical school. They have that in common. Okay. He's got a good backstory as to why he wanted to become a doctor because his grandmother had breast cancer and he was close with her. All genuine things. I like Dylan.

and I like that he wasn't a douchebag. Fair enough. It's pretty much the bar here is don't be as douchey as the rest of them. Yeah, we'll take it. And then my dark horse is Spencer, yeah. All right. You want to get into a little draft with me here? Yeah, are we drafted?

Now are we going back and forth? Let's go back and forth. We'll do a little rock paper scissors, best of one. I always fucking lose. I literally always say you lose and then you win. That happened. Except for the one time we did a bubbly ad and it was designed for me to win. That's true.

But no, we've done this one. time and I won the one time. I went, holy shit, I won. Ask Dev. Every time the Dev and I do this, I lose, so I don't even do it. Dev. Stop doing it with Dev. She's good.
