Go check out Macy's right now. Oh, yeah. Francesca, how are you doing on this lovely fall? Sunday afternoon, it's October.

Yes, everybody, we have reached October. Doesn't that feel crazy? It really does. It really, like, it's so bizarre. I've spent a couple days back in New York now. I'm in my apartment. I'm back living in my own space for the time being. And it's definitely different.

It's definitely different. But I feel like, you know, New York, I really, all the New York's dead, New York's day, it's not, not at all. At least I don't think. Yeah, I don't think so. Obviously, you know, the nightclub and bar aspect of it is not happening. But the streets are still filled up. It's not quiet by any means whatsoever.

Noah, you actually just moved into a new apartment in the city. How are you feeling? Let's catch up with Noah. I'm pretty stressed, honestly, because my whole room is like a disaster right now. And I pretty much just set up the Wi-Fi and everything else is like all over the place. But it's nice. It's nice to have like a... huge window now that I can see out of and like a common space that we can actually like sit down in.

Wow. We're really happy for you know. But I kind of feel like I forgot how to live in the city. Like I have to order food and like get my own stuff. You don't have to order. You could make something. I don't know how to cook. So it is never too late to learn. That's true. One day you're going to have to learn. What if you get married? You didn't have kids one day, Noah. Then I'll learn. But like right now, like all I can make is pasta. And like, yeah, that's pretty much it. Well, pasta's good. I eat it like every night.

Pasta and it works. Pasta. I wanted to give, it was my boyfriend's birthday the other day. So I wanted to give him a shout out. Happy birthday, Aesap Rocky. His birthday was not going to. Oh my God. I was like, what are you talking about?

Yeah, just had to make sure we got that in there. Noah, play a quick ASAP Rocky clip, the best one you could find. No lie. A rainbow shout out of my dick. And it had a sound with it like like a piano or some shit like that. I have no idea why there was a rainbow coming out of my penis. I don't even like rainbow. That was my first time doing acid, man.

A's Sab Rocky's birthday is on Mean Girls Day. Yes. Very fitting. I watched the little Katie Couric Mean Girls reunion Instagram video. It was very cute. It was very cute. I like seeing them all together was very nice. Lindsay looked great.

And so did Amanda Safer. Amanda Seaford's, like, just had a baby. So I was really happy to see Lindsay Lohan in good spirits. I got to be honest. You never know what you're going to take, Lindsay Lohan. And I feel like it was good to see her. It's kind of like, well, no, we know where Amanda Bind stands now. But I feel like every few months, we see an article about Amanda Bynne.

Binds and it's like Amanda Bynes back with shocking transition. And every few months she pops up on Instagram with some sort of new do. She actually did just pop back on Instagram. Yes, exactly. That's why I'm bringing it up. Yeah. Except now she changed her Instagram name. Like, and now she's like a, I don't know if she's starting a store or because we know

that she's, you know, gotten into fashion now after acting. But she changed her Instagram name to Matt Black online store. and her thing says shopping in retail now. She just posted a picture of herself in some jeans and a flannel. So maybe we got some Amanda Bind's original creations coming soon. Who knows? You know what? She looks good.

Go Amanda Bonds. I just like to see that she is doing well. That's really all I hope for her. I feel like the kind of same thing with Lindsay Lohan. You just want Lindsay to make the right. choices and like you said she looked well in the video and it's crazy that mean girls and obviously it's such a huge thing and but looking back on it I guess it feels so much bigger because we were pretty young when it first came out that now like it's going from movie to Broadway show

now back to movie like they're making a musical movie of the Broadway show it just keeps going. It's just obviously an iconic movie and I feel like it just never gets old. As many times as you watch it, you're like, oh, still slaps. Me and Girls always hits while we're reminiscing. I watched the Even Stevens movie this past weekend. Oh, wow. And oh my God, when I'm talking about throwbacks, if you're looking for a good Disney throwback, you're just sitting at home and you're, you need to be in a good mood. You need something to watch that's just going to, you know, Yeah. Out your mind.

You don't have to focus on anything besides even Steven. So stupid. It's so silly. But yet so funny. Like I was dying at this movie. Hank and I were like, should we? Okay. If it's really that bad, we'll shut it off midway.

Because you know, something from Disney that you think was really, really good when you were younger, obviously. And then you put it on just, it's like, not right. You kind of feel weird watching it. You're like, I'm going to shut it. It's not really hitting the same.

Not the Even Stevens movie. trust me go watch it you'll still laugh great plot i won't even ruin i'm not going to spoil it if you don't remember it i'm not going to spoil remember it great plot yeah like oh my gosh fantastic even see his movie was a great one i mean the two of us um watched the that's so sweet life of hannah original crossover and that one still slaps too it really it really does if you're wondering what Fran and I are doing on a Thursday night, it's watching Basto Sweet Life of Hanna Montana. Yep. We're really getting crazy.

And you know what? And then I went home and on Friday I watched like every Jake Ryan episode of Hanna Montana, solely the Jake Ryan ones from season one to season four from when they met to when they broke up. Just every Jake Ryan episode. Francesca, you are sick in the head. I really loved Jake Ryan. Like, anytime Jake Ryan pot back in on Han Montana, it was a great, great time. And, you know, I was sad with that ended for them.

They always found each other, but in the end, you know, not meant to be. Not meant to be. And now Cody Simpson has an overly face-tuned Instagram. Cody, not Cody Simpson. Oh, no, not Cody Simpson. Cody Lynn. Sorry. Oh, my God.

And yes, it is, it is overly face-tuned to the mass. I did go check out, you know, what was happening on his Instagram, and there is some serious face-tuning situation. If you want to go look at it, he posted a happy birthday picture for Logan Henderson of Big Time Rush on his Instagram. And he face-tuned it so intensely that it almost looks like. he put blush on Logan Henderson. They're at the gym, so maybe he was just like a little flush to begin with. He was working out. And then they like, you know, he smoothed it out on FaceTune.

But it looks like he has a little blush on. So but yeah, there he is still doing his thing. Why is it so fitting that he is hanging out with the guy from Big Time Rush? First of all, a rivaled Nickelodeon. But there were just like two guys that used to be on TV shows. going to the gym probably talking about the days on set while they're pumping iron

the good old days two men doing manly things yep question for you while we're on the topic of Disney still obviously when we're going to put up the shows next to each other right Hannah Montana and Wizard to Waverly place

Hannah Montana is always going to be number one it was a special show in everybody's heart wizard's still great but if you are putting up the character of Miley Cyrus and Alex Russo. Miley Stewart. Oh, sorry, Miley Stewart. All right, all right.

I mean, forgive me. Forgive me. It makes sense, Miley Cyrus, Miley Stewart. You could make that mistake. Yes. I am sorry. I said Cody Simpson before. Okay.

Having a tough weekend. Which one would you say is funnier and a better actor? Which character made you laugh out loud more? Miley Stewart You think so Yeah Miley Stewart 100%

And I liked I liked Wizards of Waverly Place but I feel like I didn't laugh as much at Alex as I did the rest of the cast And Jet like

Everybody on Hannah Montana was just I feel like it's a group thing But Mason Which was a group thing Worses a Waverly Place. I don't even have words. Top Disney boyfriend in my eyes. Well, obviously, we're talking about Greg Salkin here.

I know. I was having that debate in my head because I was like, obviously Hannah Montana was so good and Miley Cyrus was so good in her role. But Alex Rousseau was low-key funny in Wizard's Waverly Place. I feel like that gets forgotten that her role, you know, we talk about Selena Gomez. Sometimes I forgot she was even on the show. Like I feel like it was, you know, a whole lot. their life, but I wanted to show some respect to her character.

You know, I think, I think it was pretty funny. Yeah. It was. And I've, this is the thing. Every time I go back to watch, I watch the same episodes. Like I, like I said, I watched the Jake Ryan episodes of Pan Montana and the Jones Brothers episode, obviously. And the Mason episodes of, was there's a way really place.

Okay. So someone's a little boy crazy. Yeah. Those were, those were my guys. We see it. We respect it. You get it from, you get it from Laura. All right. I think it's time to get into the topics for today's show.

We got new Bachelorette bios from Claire's season or Tisha Season, who even knows at this point. Scott Dissick was seen out with a new model, but also an old model that he's been seen out with before. Scandalous. Rihanna released the part two of her Savage Fenty. fashion show on Amazon Prime. We have a Love Island finale recap and then an interview with Kim Zolsiac Beerman that I did not do. Francesca did. So Francesca took a took hold of that. So let's get into it. Starting off with the Bachelorette Bios. So I just moved back into my apartment, which means, you know, I got a smaller kitchen. I'm not cooking as much.

And I always, always, always need my daily harvest deliveries because it makes cooking so much easier and it's so good. They deliver delicious food built on organic fruits and vegetables right to your door. It just takes a few minutes to prepare and I never have to question it. The food I'm eating is good for me. They never use preservatives, added sugar, or artificial ingredients. They work directly with farms to freeze their ingredients at peak ripeness to lock in nutrients and taste. it's so fresh. Every time I open the smoothies, it's like shocking to me because it's all real fruit. It's real. It looks so great. It's so fresh. The smoothies are so delicious. There's so many

different options for all different times of the day. Smoothies, like I said, the flatbreads for lunch or dinner, harvest bowls, soups, so, so great. And it's so quick. That's the best part of all this. And their flatbreads have been one of my favorite things to have for lunch. lunch, they stay fresh in your freezer, and you're ready to enjoy it, helping you reduce food waste.

We have our full Bachelorette bios. They're out.

We're going to go through each contestant, see how we feel, see what's going on. Because nobody does bios like this show. They really are some of the best information you can find. Sometimes there's little Easter eggs, you've got to really pay attention. We're going to go in alphabetical order. That's how they are listed on the website. And we're starting out with AJ, the 28-year-old software salesman from Playa Del Rey, California. He is a Cali boy through and through.

He's currently studying for his MBA. He loves surfing, beach volleyball. He grew up in a Muslim household. So we've kind of bringing some diversity to the bachelor world, which I love. And some fun facts about him. He made candles in quarantine. He's scared of tigers. he's a double dutch master jumping rope and he doesn't show up to anything without doing his research

first i don't hate a j i actually like all the things listed about a j he doesn't show up to anything without doing his research first i love that because i am the exact same way i look up everything before anything like i am always you know googling before i go out to dinner i i'm i go out to dinner I'm looking at the menu before I show up. I love that, AJ. You know what? You're probably definitely way smarter than I am, but you know what, AJ?

I like the sound of you. Yes, 100%. Okay. Ben is up next. He's a 29-year-old Army Ranger veteran from Venice, California. He's actually originally Midwestern. He said he's a sweet Midwestern boy

with California Dreamboat Good Looks. He graduated from West Point, where he then became an Army Ranger. but he has suffered, he suffered a life-changing back injury where he decided to return to civilian life after that it happened. So now he's living in California. He is a personal trainer. He wants a wife who can openly communicate and stay emotionally available and can also keep up with him on the dance floor because apparently he loves a good dance battle. He shows affection through writing love letters.

He loves ice paths. And he once flew across the country to see a girl he had never met in person before. You know what? It's hard to shit on Ben. I love Ben. I'm not cringing at all. It's especially hard to shit on someone when they throw an injury in there that changes your life. I mean, my God, I feel terrible for you, Ben. And he loves the dance floor. I love that. And he seems like he's dedicated to finding his wife. Nothing bad about Ben so far. I feel like, you know, the first two, I'm already liking them. The past times when we do bios, I'm like, oh, oh, shut it off. I can't even listen to this. Well, that's okay because I think you'll have those feelings once we get to Bennett, who is up next. But yes, Ben for sure, I'm liking Ben a lot. Bennett, 36-year-old wealth management consultant from New York City. He's apparently, you know, such a catch, but that he is now, he's still single because he hasn't always been this successful and good-looking is what he said. grew up in Atlanta, went to Harvard.

He enjoys morning yoga classes, walking the high line in his favorite Belgian loafers, and delicious meals at the best restaurants in New York City. He said his high school girlfriend is the only girl he's ever had to work for. He hates humidity, as do we all, but you live in New York. So I don't know how you're avoiding that. He loves a nice face mask, hates golf, and he was in a finals club at Harvard, which, you know, we all learned about from the social network. So Bennett seems like someone a guy would hate like hates Bennett and be like fuck this dude like I'm not being friends with him.

He hates golf. He hates golf. That's immediately a turnoff to any guys trying to be friends with you. I know. And I also feel like he. Yes. But I also and I don't know what I'm just on that. But everything else that said about him, I would think he'd be the prototype for loving golf.

And he doesn't, you know. Yeah. That's like the one thing. through you for a loop there are also the Harvard thing. Chris Harrison pointed this out to us. I feel like he's going to be one to watch. I feel like he's obnoxious. He's going to break up Harvard a lot. He thinks he's really cool and good looking. He kind of looks like the evil husband in one of those movies where the husband is like, oh, I'm rich and successful and good looking. But really, he's cheating on the wife and is also a murderer on the side. Yeah. I know the vibe. Like sneaky, sneaky the other woman vibes from him. Yes, yes. Or call me crazy. Remember the movie The Stepfather with Penn Badgley? He kind of looks like the stepfather. Damn. Okay, you're right. That is, I actually do see that. That is very true. Okay. Then we have two, we have two Blakes. They're both Blake M's. So we have to go first and last name. This is Blake Monar, I'm going to guess. Monar? Sure, why not? Who knows? Chris Harrison said his name in his video.

if you want to go double check. He's a 31-year-old male grooming specialist from Phoenix, Arizona. Baseball is this guy's life. But two years into living out that dream playing in the major leagues, he also suffered a terrible injury, which two right off the bat, people with terrible injuries, which is quite sad. So that pushed him into an early retirement. He packed up his whole life and moved to Phoenix,

where he now owns and operates a cosmetic company, like I said, male grooming specialist. And now he wants to find his wife. He says that his dream woman is incredibly secure in herself and has done the work to become the best version of them possible. His idea of a romantic night includes cooking dinner at home and watching movies and sweatpants. He doesn't have any pets,

but he is apparently the friend that everyone calls when they need a dog sitter, which I feel like is a nice quality. He's never left the country. He loves to take his mom shopping. and he loves pancakes. The loving pancakes is so pure. I really love that they threw that in. Having that is the last one too.

Like, oh, and you know what? He loves pancakes. Good for him. He loves pancakes. I don't hate this guy. I feel like, you know, he's kind of, he's not popping out to me, but he's not doing anything that makes me dislike him.

Yep. I'm with you on that one. I feel that one for sure. Okay, let's go into Blake, Moines, who is the other Blake M. He's 29. There's so many people that apply to the show. Why do you need two Blake M's?

Yeah. I don't understand. It makes me think that it doesn't like, you know, it won't last long. They can't both say. Absolutely not. So he's 29. He's a wildlife manager from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. At university, he studied every kind of wildlife management program he could get his

hands on and now he spends his days happily working outdoors. He said professionally he's in a great place, but personally he is at a crossroads. Blake in the past spends his Saturday nights with his friends, but now all of his friends are married. He's the last man single. He doesn't like being left out. So now he feels the pressure to settle down and wife up. He said his dream woman is outdoorsy, beautiful and fun.

She has to have a goofy side and be okay with his self-described potty mouth. He says he has no problems talking about his emotions and wants to partner who will appreciate that he wears his heart on his sleeve. He's confident that Claire is the woman for him. He loves the Ninja Turtles as much as the Ninja Turtles love pizza. It's very specific. He also loves picnics and he volunteers with a different endangered species every year. Can't hate that. No, but I am confused about the self-described potty mouth. I hate when people describe themselves as a potty mouth. Like, you know, it's funny because if you have a potty mouth, you would never actually use the words potty mouth right i feel like potty mouth is like the conservative

version of of that right like potty mouth just doesn't sound right it doesn't it sounds like you're trying it sounds like you absolutely do not have a potty mouth whatsoever you're right yep definitely but you know makes me like oh yeah and i like that he um is here to save the animals and you know that's very nice and working outside so We'll see. All right. Next up is Brandon. Now, he's a 28-year-old real estate agent from Cleveland, Ohio. I have a friend that knows Brandon or, you know, not too well, but knows him through friends. He's now and he lives in New York normally. The first line of his bio is Brandon is an Italian stallion in the prime of his life. I don't know why right off the bat, I was dying when. I'm like this guy like a family number of mine. Yes. Also he apparently um this is what my, you know, what my friend has told me that, you know, his name is Brandon, but his friends call him Bean.

So we'll see if that happens on the show or if he is going to be Brandon. So he has been a real estate agent and model in New York City for the last few years, but now he's ready to head back to the Cleveland Burbs where he grew up the start of family. He says that he has never had trouble getting a date and loves to date older women. The most recent. someone being 38 years old. His dream girl will never say no to going on a spontaneous inventor and will be the ultimate teammate in raising their family. No Debbie Downers for Brandon. He says that when he's dating someone, he needs to see them happy and enjoying every moment of life because life is too short not to. He already said that he thinks Claire is beautiful.

So the only question now is what will Claire think of him? Brandon loves being his own boss. He has a phobia of dancing and he is the first to admit that he wore way too much Ed Hardy back in the day. He looks like somebody who wore a lot of Ed Hardy back in the day. Fobia for dancing, I don't love. You got to be able to let loose. Especially when part of his bio says he says that when he's dating someone, he needs to see them happy and enjoying every moment of life because life. No, Debbie Downers. No, but you don't like dancing. Dancing is one of the happiest freeing things. Right. So does that mean you're the Debbie Downer when you come to like dance parties? Hey, Brandon, why do you take a look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself, am I the Debbie Downer?

Yeah. Now, Chris Harrison did say in his video where he introduces all the guys and gives a little blurb about them, that Brandon says something to Claire early on that he thinks is a compliment. But Chris Harrison was like, is, but does Claire think it was a compliment? So I'm thinking he's, I don't know, says something about her looks for her age, you know, like something that's meant to be a compliment but is like kind of backhanded. And it feels like maybe it doesn't pay off for him. Yeah. I feel like that's also like an Italian thing to do sometimes. Right.

Like Italian men, they're like, think they're complimenting you, but they're also insulting you at the same time. Yep. That is very, very true. Okay. Next up is Brendan. He is the 30-year-old commercial roofer from Milford, Massachusetts. He's a sensitive soul who's ready to share his life with a special woman.

After losing his dad at a young age, he knew that his purpose in life was to be a father. He then has relocated to Los Angeles. He but then decided to move back home to Massachusetts to work for his family's roofing business and be closer to his family, especially his nieces and nephews. In his free time, he loves some true crime working out and hanging out with this friends. He's all about the initial attraction when meeting a woman. He loves to make a woman feel desired and describes himself as a true romantic. Brendan can juggle. His real passion is coaching his high school's basketball team. His buddies from home call him B money. And his signature look is a

turtleneck. Don't love B money. Why do you guys think it's so cool to throw money on any nickname? Like Hank, they call hen money. money like all like there's so many nicknames but i have heard people call hank hen money what is that yeah i don't really get the money i do it too now just because i think it's funny like hen money because it's so obnoxious like why are we throwing money on any guy's name i feel like you need to be a special type of millionaire to get money thrown on to your nickname that is very true that is very true But, you know, we'll see what happens with Brendan. And if Claire will be calling him be money, I hope not.

Probably not. Okay. Chason is up next. Wait, wait, wait. What? What? I hope that everyone listening to this has their pictures blown up going through it. Uh-huh.

Why does he look like the super grown-up version of Chase Stokes? Like, he looks like Chase Stokes in a bodybuilder's body. And his name is Jason. Yep. I could see that. Yeah. Yeah. Jason is a 31-year-old IT account executive, San Diego, California.

He grew up in competitive swimming. He is apparently the ultimate romantic, as they all say. He says he has never been close to getting married but hopes to one day have a long and happy marriage similar to that of his parents who have been together for 35 years. Oh, classic. Can't wait for Jason to immediately bring up how amazing his, parents' marriages and how he just wants something that his parents have. There's always someone who does that on this show.

After ending a two-year toxic relationship with his co-worker, ooh, drama. Jason says he has finally in the right headspace to find his future bride. Jason's dream girl is the perfect combination of beauty and brains. He loves women who take pride and staying fit and can carry on a meaningful conversation without any awkward silences. Chasing considers himself to be very romantic and loves making his significant other feel special. He says there is no better feeling that's saying your partner smile and knowing the reason is because of you. He's a self-proclaimed adventure seeker, loves to say yes to things.

And obviously, this is his latest adventure. His nickname is Wolverine. Because according to his friends, he recovers and heals quickly. He can't wait to get a golden doodle puppy one day. And he once swam from San Fran to Alcatraz wearing only a pink speedo. Okay, a lot to unpack here from Chason. Yeah, a lot going on with Chason. I got my eyes on Jason. He had a two-year relationship with one of his coworkers, my kind of guy. He said that he loves women who take pride in staying fit and can carry on a meaningful conversation without any awkward silences. Now, that's one thing that said out to me is that I don't know how you feel about that. That could be a red flag to me. Yeah, I feel like the most comfortable thing is that

is being able to sit in silence with someone. Once you can sit in silence with somebody, then you are no longer uncomfortable and awkward with that person. That's how I know I have a real friend sitting next to me, a real boyfriend, when I can just not speak and you cannot speak, and we don't feel like we have to talk. Yeah, and I'm a little wary on the, you know,

loves a woman who stays fit. I feel like that's code for like I need a skinny girl. Like, I don't like that. Immediate turnoff. don't really want to stay fit because of you, Jason. Yeah. Yeah. I'm, I got my eyes on him. I'm unsure how I feel. Okay. Oh, and his friends call him Wolverine. Can you imagine hanging out with that? That is not a group of guys I want to hang out with. No.

Call their buddy Wolverine. No. You can't be a grown man calling another grown man Wolverine. You just, no. Emasculated yourself doing that. Eventually, you got to grow out of that. So that's, Okay, Chris is next. He's 27. He's a landscape design salesman from Salt Lake City. He works in landscaping and is hoping his relationship with Claire will bloom like the perfect rose. After his last serious relationship ended in heartbreak, he was unsure if he was meant for true love. But he's picked up the pieces. He's ready to find a woman who was sharp and witty, but also easygoing. She has to love to travel because Chris's goal is to travel to 200 countries. And he currently has 180 to go before meeting his target. When asked to describe himself as a lover, Chris says, I like to think I'm good at what I do. Oh, Chris. Oh, that is confident. Behave. This is good to hear because one day Chris hopes to have three or four kids, so he has a good reason to rock a minivan.

Damn, Bachelor BIos getting a little sexual in here. Okay. Will Claire be ready to join him in the mini as he reaches for his goals? Only time will tell. Chris is the oldest of four kids, all who have genius level IQs. Wow. Okay. Oh, Chris Ranan operated a coffee shop on his parents' front lawn so that he could buy himself an electric scooter.

He loves camping, but won't go for longer than three days at a time. Very reasonable, Chris. It loves camping, but he's like, longer than three days, count me out. Week, no thank you. I can respect that. Also, reaching the 200 goal in this pandemic of visiting countries is going to be on hold for Chris. It's going to be on hold. I'm sure he was probably thinking he was going to knock few off.

when he got casted on to the show bachelor and he was going to travel a little bit not happening i like him though i like you know i personally don't like minivans for myself would never get a minivan but a guy who comfortably wants a minivan for his kid sounds like a family sounds like family man yep definitely um okay next up is dale 31 year old former pro football wide receiver from Brandon, South Dakota. Now, we all know what has been said about Dale, so we'll see what happens, but let's read his bio.

Dale is a small-town boy with big dreams of making an impact on the world. His mother passed away at a young age, but before her death, Dale says she taught him to always follow his passions and that nothing is impossible if you work hard. After playing D1 football and basketball at South Dakota State, he spent four years playing in the NFL

before stepping away to move to New York and pursue a career in consulting for sports wellness and lifestyle brands. I just, I don't want to insult Dale. I don't. But this is not his fault. This has got to be ABC. They got to chill with the like pro football situation.

You know, because it makes it sound like he played four years in the NFL. I'm pretty sure he was on some practice squads. And, you know, which is like I said, not an insult to Dale, but the way they say it, sets up Dale for failure, I feel like, because they make it seem like something that is bigger than it is. Anyway, when asked what his greatest achievement is to date,

Dale says, I'm living it. Now, all he is, now all he's just missing is a woman to share his success with. Dale is looking for a woman who wants him, but doesn't need him and says that nothing turns him on more than an independent woman's with strong convictions. Sounds like a lady, we may know. When Dale is feeling passionate,

he doesn't like to hold back and is looking for a woman who won't be turned off by his intensity. Also, another thing that we know she likes. Dale says one thing he has not mastered yet is patience. Will he be able to wait his turn to make a move on Claire? Or will he come in hot for all the right reasons? I don't think he's going to master patience. No.

Dale loves Oprah. He's super competitive and his favorite game is hungry, hungry hippos. He's an ambassador for the Special Olympics. And his favorite indulgence is a good martini and a perfectly cooked steak. they gave him a good bio. They gave him a good bio. Yeah, he sounds pretty damn good and so does the martini and perfectly cooked steak. Now I'm hungry.

When he wrote he loves Oprah, I thought it said opera at first. I was like, this guy loves the opera? Okay, red flag. Yeah. Oprah, we love that. Yeah, it seems like a good bio. Obviously, they're not going to write up a bad bio for him considering if you know what has been going around. So not shocked that he seems like the perfect.

man in this. Definitely. All right. Damar, 26. He's a spin cycling instructor from Scottsdale. Chris Harrison told us to look out for Damar and EZ. He said they're both like fantastic hype men. So this is, I already like this guy. So he is 26, obviously on the younger side, but he said he's ready to find his wife and is diligently on the hunt. He likes meeting new people, exploring local restaurants and sipping on fresh cocktails at the local bars. The one not non-negotiable in DeMar's life is his passion for spin. He is a very popular spin instructor in Scottsdale and says he can get on that bike and spin to any beat thrown his way. He works hard and wants a woman who will appreciate his appetite for success. He is the only child to two loving parents. He's

very close to both of his parents and hopes to find a woman who will join him and his mom on their Starbucks coffee dates and then get in the action when he shoots hoops with his dad. His infectious energy will captivate any room he is in and he's hoping that works to his advantage when he arrives. His dream job is to be a DJ on the Las Vegas strip. He writes poetry in his spare time, but wouldn't consider himself a poet by any means. And Denver is one of his favorite cities in the U.S. And when he goes skiing or snowboarding for the first time, he wants it to be there. And his wine of choice is a Cabernet Sauvignon. Very nice. I like the way he sounds. The only thing, the dream job to be a DJ on the Las Vegas strip, don't feel like that's

something that a girl can deal with forever. You know, maybe as a, as a little stint on the Las Vegas strip, sure, but the lifelong thing becomes a little too much, I think. Wine of choice, Cabernet Sauvignon, I like something that's a little less sweet, but still nice. Still very nice. Yep, can complain. He seems like a very fun guy. Like I said, Cabernet Sauvignon, a little too sweet for me.

I like something a little less sweet, maybe even a white, like a Pinot Grigio. or, you know, our favorite wine, Francia. They have all different types of wines. You know, you can share a five-liter box of Francia with some friends. You can have it to yourself if you want to. They also have a cabernet. So if this guy wants a nice Cabernet Sauvignon, he's got it with Francia. They also have all different types, like I said.

And there's no way that you'll run out. They also have the juice boxes that Fran has loved all summer long on the beach. I realize it's October. So we're not even close. to that anymore. But Francia wine is where it's at, especially, you know, the Bachelorette is coming back. There's nothing better than sitting on the couch, getting a nice glass of wine ready, and probably a few. That's why you get the five-liter box, which is six and a half bottles of wine in one box, and you're good for the entire show. It's perfect when you're catching up

with friends. Maybe you're still doing virtual happy hours. Whatever it is, get that franzia wine into your system. And then there's easy. Easy is 29. He's a sports marketing agent. agent in Newport Beach, California. It's easy to see what makes easy such a great catch. With a smile that lights up the room, a great career and a fun personality to match, he's the total package. After playing in the NFL for four years, Easy decided to shift gears and move into the marketing side of sports where he now has a very successful career as an agent.

While his place of work has shifted from the field to the office, Easy still dreams of world domination and shows no signs of flowing down. The only difference now is that Easy says he is much more focused on his personal life. He's ready to find his queen, hopeless romantic, loves being in relationship. He's looking for a woman to be the other half of a power couple. She has to have passion to be great in her career, but also know how to turn off work mode, enjoy the fun side of life. Above all, he wants to make his family proud.

Nobody hipes Easy up better than himself. He hates insects, especially ones that fly. His dream is to own the New York Yankees, and he has seen every episode of Grey's Anatomy. I love Easy. love I like everything about him already and you know he actually play four years in the NFL or is that another gotcha I don't think so of course yeah but yeah he sounds he sounds good the gray's anatomy love that they threw that in there um nothing really nothing really cringy about him yet either these guys are they're not too bad they or are they writing the bios to be less cheesy maybe but

I feel like so far everybody like maybe just because they've been a little pickier with the guys, everybody seems pretty great. Yeah, from their bios. From their bios, yes, that is very true. Okay. Ed 36, health care salesman from Miami, Florida. He's dated around for the last year, but now he says he's finally in a place mentally and professionally to make finding his soulmate a priority.

He's looking to find a woman who has natural beauty without looking overly fake. He has a weakness for women who can joke. around and be playful and would love to find someone to enjoy one of his many aquatic hobbies, kayaking, paddleboarding. He hopes that his experience will produce the meaningful and loving relationship that he hasn't quite yet experienced. He's serious about getting married and is hoping to return home with Claire by his side, never to be single again. His biggest turn on is a woman with beautiful eyes. He loves all-inclusive resorts, and he is bad at multitasking and planning ahead. I feel like that the all-inclusive resort and the bad at multitasking and planning ahead

kind of go hand in hand. Like he's like, he plans vacations. He's just like, let me go somewhere where everything is done for me. Yeah, I can't tell if I like Ed or not. I'm feeling iffy about Ed. I don't know why. Maybe he has been many aquatic hobbies. That's fun.

I like the water. But, you know, the all-inclusive resorts. You know. Not too much. not so much info about him. Right. Like, shorter bio.

Inclusive resorts sick. Yeah. I mean, also that just... Don't we all. If you, right? I mean, like, all inclusive resorts are great. You get everything included.

But then when you say that somebody loves all inclusive resorts, then it's like, okay, are they not willing to pay for other things? Is it only the all inclusive resort? So... Yep.

I'm keeping my eyes on it. And he's the head of a serious relationship, but he's 36. Yeah. Very true. Okay, next up is Garen. He's 34, professor of journalism, North Hollywood, California. He's from Florida.

He describes himself as an extrovert by nature. He loves his job teaching journalism at the University of Southern California and takes great pride in shaping the minds of future television reporters. His most recent relationship taught him a lot about love and life. Always the optimist. He now realizes that he needed to go through the heartbreak in order to learn what type of love he wants for his future. He wants a queen by his side to start a family with and pursue their dreams together. He wants a woman who has their own goals to focus on but can still be a companion and support

Garren and his. He loves to make sure the people around him are having a good time and is happy to be the source of energy for the night. Sounds like a great guy to keep around. Garen studied abroad in Ghana and said it was the best trip of his life. He'll be the first to admit he has a trouble with punctuality and he spends his free time planning and hosting a local concert series and loves to get the party started. I love Garen.

He looks like he loves to get the party started. I'm looking at his picture and his smile is infectious. It is also, yeah. I also love that he is a professor. I feel like, you know, he, that you got to be, you got to be a professor. So he's got like a real, real life job, real life career. He's molding young minds, but still likes to have fun.

Love it's like all around the great guy. A teacher who loves to party. Yeah, exactly. All right. Up next is Ivan. Ivan is a 28-year-old aeronautical engineer from Dallas, Texas. Ivan is no average Joe. In fact, some may say he's got it all.

Movie star looks a loving and supportive family and a seriously cool job building jets for the U.S. military. Ladies, how is this man still single? I love when they write these in the body. I was, right? He was born in Chicago, but grew up in Texas. He's very close with his mom, says they talk every day. He says that he made it a point to have fun and enjoy the single life at his mid-20s.

And now he says his single bachelor days are behind him. Time to settle down. Ivan is hoping to find someone who is not only beautiful and nurturing, but also smart and ambitious. Intelligence is a huge aphrodisiac to Ivan. And nothing turns him on more than getting into a spirited debate with the woman he loves. We hope Claire is ready because I. Evan is coming in hot. His favorite foods always come from his mom's Filipino cooking.

He is a recovered crock enthusiast. And he loves high-end cars and wants to run his own exotic car rental company one day. Now, Ivan, I don't know if you know this, but crocs are making a comeback. So maybe he won't be a recovering crock enthusiast because crocs are everywhere. Maybe he'll relapse. Also, I think it's hilarious that they're saying, intelligence is a huge aphrodisiac to him. Nothing turns him on more. It's like he's about to have sex. He's taking the girls' clothes off and all of a sudden he starts shooting times tables at her.

It's like, what's three times three? What's three times six? Yep. She really gets them going. She's just nailing each one. She's nailing each one. He's getting harder and harder by the second. Sorry. Okay. Okay. Moving on. We got another, another football player. Jason 31. Oh, my God. Give me a break. with these football players. Former pro football lineman from Arlington, Virginia. He's a former NFL offensive lineman who after suffering too many who after suffering too many concussions on the field, he decided to prioritize his health and change the direction of his life. Since leaving the NFL in 2016, he has lost 120 pounds and started a career in IT staffing and solutions. While Jason

admits he had his fun during his NFL days, he's now ready to get serious. On the weekends, Jason loves to spend his days visiting historical monuments around Arlington or kayaking on the Potomac. Jason wants a woman who can keep up with his big personality. She has to have a great sense of humor and an amazing laugh. Jason hopes to meet a woman who can handle a sarcasm and put him in his place when needed to be checked. He loves animals and if he could, he would open his home to every dog on the planet that needed one.

Ooh, that okay. Jason is the first guy in the dance for when it's time for the electric slide and he likes to drink coffee in bed. What are the chances that this guy had the least NFL experience because they mentioned it the most times? They mentioned the NFL four or five times in this bio. Yeah, yeah. I love seeing what actually happens. Now, I'm assuming, I'm taking a guess because I do not know,

but I'm assuming maybe Jason has more experience because he had to have been playing a decent amount to be dealing with concussions. would be, you know, like he had to be on the fields in order to have that happen. Now, maybe he had that problem in college or, you know, it very, very different situation. But, yeah, that's something we'll have to look up and see what's going on there. But besides that, Jason seems quite lovely. There's no mention of what Jason, oh, no, no, he's now in IT staffing and solutions. I was like, what does he do now? because it just says talk about football.

Okay, up next is Jay, 29-year-old fitness director from Fort Lauderdale. He is the perfect combination of sweet and tough. He owns and operates his own personal training center, and he loves what he does professionally, but now it is time to take a break from worrying about others and focus on himself. He wants a woman he can be 100% himself with and says his perfect date is one filled with random adventures, followed by good wine and meaningful conversation. Jay says when he falls in love, he loves unconditionally and that he works every day to make sure she feels it.

One thing to note, if you are someone that can't put down your phone for more than five minutes, you may not be the person for Jay. All right. Me and Jay, we're not going to work. Nothing annoys him more than being on a date with a woman who is half in the conversation and half scrolling through Instagram. Okay, well, that's rude. Luckily, it's a no phone zone here at The Bachelorette, so we can't wait to see if Jay and Claire hit it off.

Jay says every song Drake puts out is a banger. He doesn't like to go to hot spots or clubs because he hates paying a cover charge. He loves Duke basketball. And he says growing up, he spent way too much of his allowance on clothes from Abercrombie and Fitch. I kind of understand the phone thing, though. Like, there is really nothing more annoying than when you're having a conversation with somebody and they're scrolling through their phone and not paying attention to you. Like, that drives me insane. Yeah, especially if you're on a date.

Yeah. So I mean, I would hate that. So I feel like not a bad point by Jay here. Otherwise, he seems pretty normal. Nothing really crazy sticking out to me. Yeah, I agree with you on that. Nothing too exciting. And you know what, Jay?

Maybe you'll like the clubs and hotspots more when you can get in because you're on the bachelor. Yeah. Maybe you won't have to pay a cover charge anymore. Yep. Okay. And I feel like a lot, I feel like some of these guys, I feel like I remember seeing that there was a lot of dads cast this season. Now, they never actually include that in the bio, but maybe that's something to think about too.

Jeremy is up next. He's 40. He's a banker from D.C. He's the oldest contestant to ever come on the Bachelorette and says he is feeling the pressure to finally settle down. Not that he hasn't been trying, but he says that D.C. is just full of type A women that he doesn't get along with. Jeremy has been in two serious relationships, both times he thought he would marry the girl, and both times they broke his heart. Never one to stay down for long.

Jeremy believes that this third time will be the charm. He describes his perfect woman as cute, easygoing, and funny. He loves bold women who aren't afraid to challenge him when the opportunity presents itself. He is all about giving back, and when he isn't working at his fancy bank job, he loves volunteering and spends as much time as he can mentoring children with disabilities. Jeremy says he has a line common with Claire thinks the two of them could really go the distance. His favorite thing about Claire, though, is that she talks to raccoons and he can't wait to get in on the conversation.

A little Bachelor in Paradise reference. During quarantine, Jeremy developed a love for painting and taught himself how to rollerblade. He hates Instagram models, both male and female. He says his love language is witty banter. His favorite holiday is Halloween because he loves to geek out on haunted attractions. I'm rooting for Jeremy just solely based off the fact that he's 40 and he's the oldest contestant to come on the show.

Right. So I can't really find anything wrong with him, although he hates Instagram models, both male and female. He's going to hate the Bachelor universe. But I'm rooting for him. Yep. I'm with you on that. Okay. Thank you, Jeremy.

After Jeremy is Joe. Joe is a 36-year-old anesthesiologist from New York City. He is a first line paging Dr. Joe. After spending most of 2020 fighting coronavirus on the front line. lines in New York City and accomplished anesthesiologist and COVID-19 survivor, he is done wasting time. After seeing more tragedy this year than throughout his entire career, Joe is 100% ready to settle down and find someone to build a family with. His ideal woman is physically fit and passionate about maintaining a healthy lifestyle. A nice smile and a pretty face will go a long way,

but more importantly, he wants to find a partner who is kind, laid back, self-aware, and intelligent. Due to his busy work schedule, he primarily meets women on dating apps, but says he hasn't had much walk because women on apps are always wondering if there is someone better out there. Admittedly, the world of online dating has not done much to boost Joe's confidence, which is crazy considering he was once voted top 20 most eligible doctors and medical professionals in New York City. Wow. Okay.

Yeah. Joe's biggest turnoff is someone who litters. Amen. Love that. Joe loves to spend his weekends searching for the best waves to surf and training for his next triathlon. His favorite childhood game is Scrabble. And he says the best trip he ever took was a 10 week solo.

trip to Central America. Liking Joe. Seems like Joe's a real catch. Well-rounded, traveled, accomplished in his career. Voted top 20 most eligible doctor. Seriously. Huge. Yeah.

I feel like, you know, Joe looks like a, looks like a total catch. Okay. Which, you know, is there something we're missing? Yeah, that is very true. Very true. Okay, Jordan C, 26-year-old software account executive from New York City. Jordan C, when he was eight years old, his father suddenly passed away and he became the man of the house, a responsibility he took very seriously at the time and still does to this day.

He has built a great life for himself working in the software business, and now all he needs is someone to enjoy it with. His perfect woman will have a smile that is contagious, will accompany him to the gym, and will spend hours with him on the couch watching Jim Carrey movies. Just like Jordan C stepped into the role of the man. of the house, he is ready to step into the role of husband. The only thing that may get in his way is his older sister, who he says has never liked any girlfriend he brought home.

He says that she is just protective of him, but we can't wait to see what she thinks of Claire. Jordan C dreams of having a dog named Maverick. Even if you offered him a million dollars, Jordan C would not go swimming with sharks, never going to happen. And Jordan C would love to learn how to salsa dance. He looks way older than 26. He does, yeah. When I saw his picture, I was like, oh, he's going to be on the older side.

he's 26. I just don't think the 26-year-olds are going to make it with Claire. So automatically, when I see that age, I'm just like, you know, we'll probably see them on Paradise or something like that. But I feel like Claire is not going to go for the younger guys. He sounds nice, though. Yeah, yeah, agreed. And then there's another Jordan. There is a Jordan, Jordan, M. Jordan M is a 30-year-old cybersecurity engineer from Santa Monica, California. Oh, my goodness, he's 6-8. That is quite tall. That is quite tall.

A few years ago, Jordan moved to Santa Monica for a change of scenery and to pursue a career in cybersecurity. While Jordan loves to have fun, he says that he doesn't have the same priorities as people as age. They all seem to be looking for the next best thing, and Jordan M is truly ready for a relationship. He spends most of his free time hiking going to the beach. beach and staying active. He loves writing poetry and competing and hacking competitions. Jordan M knows what he wants and says he's single because he hasn't met a woman with enough depth. He says he is very attracted to Claire and is excited to date someone who is mature and knows exactly what they want. His only knock, Jordan M admits that he can be a little shy at first,

but once his guard down, it's game on. He idolizes Barack Obama. His favorite Sunday activity is cleaning and his dream is to own a classic car restoration shop. There's got to be nothing better than getting a boyfriend whose favorite Sunday activity is cleaning because if they love cleaning so much, they'll just clean for you, right? If you really, your favorite Sunday activity is not watching football or whatever it is that people do on Sundays. And it's cleaning. Damn, you might as well just clean my entire house. Go for it. Yep. Yep. That is so very true. I mean, what like, and I also feel like he seems like another catch. I'm really, at least from everyone,

The bios are great this season. They're usually not this good. Everyone seems so positive and happy. All right. Up next is Kenny. He's a 39-year-old boy band manager from Chicago, Illinois. What kind of boy bands are we talking about here? Kenny is a talent buyer in Chicago where he creates and manages boy band cover bands.

Okay. He's the first one to admit that in the past he put his career before his relationships, but now is the inches closer to 40. He's tired of having no strings attached and is ready for someone to join him on this journey he calls life. Looks and priority, looks and personality are equal in priority, and he's hoping for a girl with both.

He wants a woman who is not controlling, fake or wrongly opinionated, and if he doesn't agree with her opinions, she should be ready for a spirited conversation because Kenny says he doesn't let things slide easily. One way to secure Kenny's heart is through music. He loves a talk shop and could spend hours reliving his favorite concerts or albums. He's often misjudged by what people see on the outside, but inside he's sensitive and caring.

Kenny and his dad work out together every day. He hates cheese. He says the best time of the week for a date is Sunday morning over coffee, and he wants to own his own dive bar on the beach one day. Kenny? I hate you. I hate you, Kenny. You can't hate cheese, pal.

My number one thing is loving cheese. Loving cheese. If you hate cheese, if I can't enjoy it, If I can't enjoy a nice charcutory board with you, we are going to have a problem. It's not even the charcutory board. I don't even eat charcutory boards that often. It's cheese in general, just straight up cheese out of the fridge, cheese on anything.

Yep. Cheese burgers, cheese pizza, cheese, period. Cheese hates it. All right, Kenny. I hate you, Kenny. Yeah. Only because you hate cheese. Yep.

Okay. Next is Mike. He's a 38-year-old. digital media advisor from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. He is the total Canadian stereotype because he's quite possibly the nicest person he'll ever meet. He loves spending quality time with friends and says being close with his family is a top priority. He enjoys activities like traveling in the world, downhill skiing and going to see his

favorite hockey team to Calgary Flames. After his last relationship, Mike put up serious walls when it came to allowing himself to being vulnerable, but now he's back and better than ever. He's looking to find the right girl to ultimately marry and have children with. Mike wants the woman whose values align with his as well as someone who is extremely honest and trustworthy. Being a good communicator is very important and the biggest requirement of all. His mom and his sister must love her. So at the 2018 Winter Olympics, Mike captured a video with Hoda Koppi at the women's gold medal ice hockey game and went viral.

He is a proud lifelong member of the Shania Twain fan club. He refuses to acknowledge that season eight of Game of Thrones ever aired. If Mike could live in any time period, he would live during the Jurassic gear so we could roam through life with the dinosaurs. A little funky here, Mike, a little funky. I think Mike is like eccentric and I'm kind of liking the vibe, although I know he didn't write this himself. I think it's hilarious that the only time they have used an exclamation point in these bios is to make sure that you know he went viral and went viral. And went viral.

And went viral. The only exclamation point to be used in these bios so far. Yep, that is very true. Okay, Paige is up next. He's a 37-year-old chef from Austin. He has well-known and a well-respected chef in the Austin area. He has been in a few serious relationships and says he now understands the importance of a work-life balance. He wants a strong, independent woman who would love being a stepmom and would love his little boy like her own. Okay, now meet one dad.

He prefers a night filled with good food, intimate company, and stimulating conversation. So he's definitely not looking for a party girl on the go. He's open to having more children and is excited for that possibility with Claire. Page cannot relate to people who love football. In 2016, Page was featured in Food and Wine magazine as one of the best new chefs of the year. Page's favorite foods are pizza and caviar, but not at the same time. He loves to hang out with his buddies and debate social and political issues. Well, I like the chef part.

Yeah. He started losing me around me. He can't relate to people who love football. situation and in his past time he loves just debating politics. I hope he's not, could come off a little snooty. Yeah, like I feel like people in their past time who like to debate politics on their pastime, like that's supposed to be the part of life where you enjoy things. And you're like, oh, I want to debate politics. It's like, what? Don't you want to do something else? Maybe, you know, get into those aquatic hobbies like kayaking or

paddleboarding. Right. Something a little bit more relaxing. Okay. Riley is a 30-year-old attorney from Long Island City, New York, self-proclaimed workaholic. He attended a small college in Ohio, but then moved to New York City to attend Syracuse School of Law and pursue his dreams of being a big city lawyer. Since graduating, he has been working as an attorney practicing medical malpractice,

and the grind has been nonstop. He's ready to shift his priorities, and he believes that this is truly the perfect time for him to meet his soulmate and begin the next. chapter of his life. Riley says he is looking for a woman who can be his authentic self with. The ability to carry a good conversation means a lot to Riley, but please don't ask him to go to a museum with you because that's not going to happen. You'd rather check out a new restaurant or spend the day at the ballpark and join the game over beer and hot dogs. Can't wait to have a family of his own, who has to be an amazing father, knows all the lyrics to call me maybe and is a

karaoke legend among his colleagues. The one thing that really makes Riley mad is when the University of Michigan loses to Ohio State and football, and Riley's favorite type of dance is slow dancing. I straight up love hot dogs, so the fact that Riley even mentioned hot dogs, he's good on my list. I do. And any guy that can belt out call me maybe, I feel like we'll be a fun time at all karaoke events. The only thing that strikes me is the favorite type of dance is slow dancing. I've never met somebody like that. But hey, Riley, if you want to slow dance, let's slow dance. I'm not actually.

It was saying, I really don't want to slow dance with you, Riley. You seem like a great guy, but I am taken. Yep. I am a spoken forward. Okay. Robbie is a 31-year-old insurance broker from Tampa, Florida. He grew up in St. Petersburg, Florida, with his parents and older sister, played D-1 baseball. Florida State moved to home after graduation to work for his family's insurance brokerage.

He splits time between Tampa and L.A. He wants to have someone by his side to share his successes. His dream woman is incredibly athletic and able to throw back a few beers with him after her day of hiking. She has a sweet personality and won't mind that he spends his Sundays on the golf course. Robbie is very close with his family, naming them the people he admires most in the world. His parents have been married for over 30 years. So obviously, what does Robbie want? A marriage like his parents. His biggest accomplishment is modeling for GQ Magazine. Robbie is sentimental. He still has a blanket that his first girlfriend made for him. Robbie's move when he is into a woman is to walk up to her and casually say, hey, Robbie hates iced tea.

I can't really say that a move is walking up to a girl and say, hey, is that really a move? No, if somebody just walks up to me and said, hey, I would look at them kind of funny because I'd be like, hey, what's up? What do you want? Why are you saying, hey, come with a question or of some sorts. Also, hates iced tea. On paper, that sounds way worse because I love iced tea. And Fran, I'm sure you love iced tea. I do love ice tea. Great. Hank doesn't like ice tea and I thought it'd be a way bigger problem in my life but it seemed to be okay I drink ice tea he doesn't so on paper seeing somebody say they hate iced tea is a problem for me but realistically I feel like that's okay you know if claire doesn't like ice tea she's going to be okay definitely

um okay Tyler C. Tyler C is 27 a lawyer from Morgatown West Virginia A southern gentleman grew up in a small town. After becoming the second person in his family to attend college, Tyler C is now a badass lawyer who says he is a businessman by day and a cowboy by night. Now he just needs a cowgirl to ride off into the sunset with. His parents have been a great example of what a true marriage is and he hopes to one day have a relationship as solid as theirs. Tyler C is looking to find someone who will stand by his side through the good and the bad.

And while he admits that he's a picky guy, he's never been more ready to leave Bacherhood behind. He's a Matthew McConaughey stand. He hates snakes. He could eat Thanksgiving dinner all year round. And he hopes to have three kids, two boys and a little girl in that order. Chris Harrison made it seem like Tyler C. Like really loves Matthew McConaughey.

So I don't know how that's going to play into this. I'm worried for Tyler C because I feel like it can go one way or the other. Either he is loved even more than Tyler C and he becomes the Tyler C. or he's an absolute villain and he becomes terrible so that there's not too great Tyler C's. Because how are you going to have both Tyler Cs be great? It's kind of hard to do. I mean, maybe they can.

Maybe it's possible. But I'd be looking out if I was this guy that they weren't making me out to look like the villain or a weirdo in some way. Yeah. And I feel like he might be a little too young still. You know, I don't really know how long that'll work for Claire. Um, okay. We have another Tyler. This is Tyler S. 36 music manager from Georgetown, Texas. He, um, is normally on the road managing the career of his brother country singer Granger Smith. Tyler S is ready to step out from behind the curtain and focus on himself. He says it's been years since his last relationship. He just loves his job. Career always comes first. His, um, it's too hard to date while he's on tour. His person rule is that he can't show his mom. He's just loves his job. He just loves his job. He's always comes first. His, um, it's too hard to date while he's on tour. His person rule is that he can't show his mom. He says, a girl's Instagram, then he can't date her. And mama's approval is everything to Tyler. He likes

to plan trees, fish, and work with organizations by you to protect wildlife. He likes to listen to AM radio over FM. He has been to all 50 of the United States and he doesn't understand the concept of going to the movies on a first date because there's no opportunity to chat. I'm rooting for Tyler S for the sole purpose that it must be really hard working for your brother. You're always in the shadow. Your brother's getting all the limelight. He's getting praised on stage. He's a musician. You just work for even though you might like it. It still probably hurts a little bit when the brother's getting all the attention and Tyler S is trying to find his way in the world. So I'm happy for him. Yep. I'm with you on that. And I'm also with him

on the movie first date. You know, that's movie first date is fine when you're in like eighth grade. Yeah. But, but as an adult, yeah, it's kind of hard to go, I feel like, on a first date at the movies because you can't talk to the person you're with. And you're also not to make out with them when you're older. When you're older, you realize how, how nasty it is to be making out in a movie theater in front of people. Like that's just not okay. But when you're, younger, you think it's totally fine. Yep. Okay, Yosef, 30-year-old medical device salesman from Daphne, Alabama. Yosef was married at 24 and had his daughter, Zara, soon after. Things didn't work out with Zara's mom, but they're on good terms, co-parenting. His ex-wife

remarried in February, and while he is happy for her, he says it's now his turn to find love. When he isn't spending time with the four-year-old light of his life, he is cooking, hanging with his friends, and frequenting the local dance clubs. He has been told told he talks too much, but he hopes to find someone that loves his enthusiasm and zest for life. Above all, he wants to find someone who will be an amazing stepmom to Zara. He's never been wine tasting and hopes to visit a vineyard in Napa one day. As a kid, he loved Velcro sneakers. One day he wants to own a home in Egypt so he can take his family there on vacation.

And he was once catfished on a dating app. Yikes for the catfish. But she sounds nice. I worry about the, you know, obviously he seems like he's probably a great dad and he's looking for somebody to fill that mom role. But I don't know how Claire feels about dating a father, you know? Like, she want a kid on her hands with a relationship? I'm not quite sure. I feel like she's never said it, but I doubt she's not into it, you know?

Yeah, I guess it depends on the person. Yeah, exactly. Okay, Zach C, 36-year-old addiction specialist from Haddonfield, New Jersey. Shout out Haddonfield, New Jersey. That's where my dad grew up. Zach C is all about taking advantage of every day because tomorrow was never promised. After putting his party days behind him and becoming sober himself, he started a recovery program focused on helping reintegrate people back into the world after rehab.

He's never been in a better place and now he wants to continue building his amazing life. He says he's a sucker for a good style and loves a woman with curves. toughness and confidence are incredible sexy to him and vending woman whose entire life isn't wrapped up in their relationship is key. He loves Philadelphia sports and dreams of sharing a Philly Cheesesteak with his future wife while watching the Eagles win a Super Bowl. Above all, Zach C knows that life is short and he plans to make the most of it no matter what obstacles are thrown his way.

He's a proud sneakerhead. He prefers to keep it old school and gets his news from reading the morning paper. His dream is to travel to Italy and eat his way through the country. He loves desserts, but if there is fruit on the plate, he's not eating it. It kind of sounds like your kind of guy, no? Philadelphia sports. He does sound like my kind of guy.

He does. Yep. Although I do love a good fruit on my dessert. So, yeah. But, you know, when you're in that situation, you'll take the fruit. Yeah. Like that's what it really should say. It should be like, you know what?

I won't eat the fruit, but I'm looking for someone who will eat the fruit off my dessert plate, you know? I'm looking for a teammate. and anybody who wants to just watch the Eagles and eat cheese steaks, I'm down for, so I'm down for Zach C. All right. Last but not least is Zach Jay, 37-year-old cleaning service owner from St. George, Utah.

He says that he has had a major crush on Claire ever since seeing her telloff Juan Pablo during the finale of his season. He wants to make it clear he's only here because he believes Claire is the perfect woman for him. He's a successful business owner who loves. staying active and healthy. He stays away from clubs and bars. And he wants his marriage to be forever. He's obsessed with gum and chapstick, hates jazz music, and does not know how to formally dance. He once broke his nose walking into a glass door. And he doesn't understand why people have so much trouble knowing when to use their versus there versus there. Obviously,

the three different spellings of there, they are and there. It drives him crazy. Well, got a little grammar police. Grammar police. I don't really love a grammar please. I'm not going to lie, even though it does frustrate me when people mix up your and your and there, they're, there and those things, it does. You know what? My sister actually does the worst thing ever, and I'm going to blow up her spot and it's going to be embarrassing. I'm sorry, Nicole, I love you very much. And she's aware of this, but she doesn't want to accept it and change it. Yeah. Do you, you know, when you're saying like his cup of coffee, right, H-I-S.

Mm-hmm. She writes or like he's going to he's going to the movies. Right. He is. He is and then verse his. Yeah.

She just writes his or he's for everything. Like he's going to the movies. She would write his going to the movies. And I've tried to

tell her a million times, like, it's H.E. apostrophe S. Yeah. Yeah. And she's like, I just can't, I can't figure out. I'm like, Nicole, you're the only one in this family who got a college degree. Yeah. How, that is by far the worst grammatical error I have ever seen anybody make. Is not being able to do he's and his. Like, yeah. What? How does that even, it doesn't even really make sense. They're not really even close enough to be mistaken. I have no idea how she does this, but it continues to happen. And I continue to tell her, please, please, so don't love a grammar please. But if it's a situation like that, it needs to be corrected. Yeah. Well, you know what? That is, that's Zach Jay. I feel like would really not

get along with what to call then. No. But yeah, that's, that is all of the intestines, I got to say, I'm pretty impressed with everybody's bio. I feel like it's a solid group of guys. Yeah, I think it's a solid group. I feel like there was nobody I really cringed at. Like I usually do. I'm ready to hate on the bios, but they were pretty good. Also, can't believe it took an hour for us to go through that. Yeah, that took way longer than I expected. Yeah. Oh, boy. Everybody, I hope you really were paying attention. Yep. Yep. And also, like, is this all going to be useless? Like, is this all worthless?

Because we're not even going to see half these guys. Hopefully not. I don't think our listeners would tell us that was useless. No. Oh, no. It took us an hour. Oh, no. I'm not saying that.

I'm saying hopefully, like, with Claire's season and whatever happens with, like, if it's cut short, I hope these guys get enough time to shine because it seems like they're great guys. Yeah. They just become tautious. guys, I think. Yeah, exactly. So it's hard because I feel like we can't fake pretend who we think Claire's going to pick. So we just got to like, they're just all, it seems like a great group. Right. I can't be like, oh, I think he's really going to make it.

Jack Jay, like is, yeah, yeah. Because I probably would have said Zach Jay, but you know what? Yeah. Fucking Dale from the reports. Yeah, yeah, exactly. So we'll see what happens. But those are are guys. You should know by now that Monster Energy Ultra is our absolute favorite energy drink to give us that Friday energy at any time of the week. You know my personal favorite is the ultraviolet. It tastes like a purple pixie stick, but they also have two new flavors, the Ultra Rosa and Ultra Fiesta, which tastes amazing. The Ultra Rosa tastes like a pink starburst. And the Ultra Fiesta has a smooth mango flavor that tastes so good. And don't forget about the Ultra Zero white can that also taste delicious while giving you. you the energy you need. It's zero sugar, low in calories. So it's not bad for you. You know, sometimes you get that energy drinks are just like so sugary and they're filled with all these bad things, not with Monster Energy Ultra. They also have a ton of flavors besides the ones I mentioned. They have the Paradise, the Sunrise, the red, the blue. And it's not just the black or green cans that you're used to seeing. They have the Monster Energy Ultra, all different types of flavors.

Taste amazing. You're going to love it. Once you try it, you'll be hooked. Get that Friday Energy with Monster Energy Ultra at any time, any day of the week. Last week was the Love Island finale. I got to say, it was an amazing season. If you haven't watched, I enjoyed the season a lot, mostly because I just love Justine and Caleb so much. They are the winners. They came out on top.

And I truly hope they live happily ever after. I really do. As do I. I'm so happy that they won. I also feel good because I feel like there's not a lot of times that we watch a show in the very beginning. We're like, we really like these people. We hope they win. And then they actually do win.

Justine was one of the girls that we were like, she, you know, she has a personality. She's actually giving something to this show. She deserves to win and find somebody. And that she did. So that was amazing. How do you feel about Carrington making it all the way to the finale? I mean, this guy just skated his way through. I know, I know, he did. And I love, I think Laurel is so sweet. So, you know, I hope that it works for them. I, I wasn't surprised Carrington made it because he did end up being with Laurel who, like, I feel like everybody loved so much. He knew he was picking the right girl. I don't know if that relationship has any legs in the real world. I kind of feel that way about Moira. And, and.

Calvin as well. I like them together. I think they're really cute. Love Moira. And I like each of them individually, but I don't really know if that... Like, I feel like they didn't get enough time there where they were fully a couple

that they now feel confident dating long distance because, you know, they don't live in the same place. So interesting to see. I feel like Sally and Johnny are going to definitely. definitely date in real life for, you know, however long that goes. Mackenzie and Connor are all over Instagram already. Those two are making it work in the real world right now. But just seen and Caleb, really the stars.

They're the stars. They deserved it. So happy for them. I'm worried about Sally and Johnny in the real world. I don't trust Johnny. I feel like some more shit's going to come out. Obviously, you know, we saw the people on TikTok that were blown up Johnny's spot, past girlfriends. So I feel like now that they're in the real world, they have their phones,

people have access to them more things are going to come out. I feel like there's going to be more problems that arise between the two of them. And as for McKenzie and Connor, they obviously didn't make it to the finale. They went home a while ago. I also don't know if those two are going to make it. Right now it's hot and heavy and they're feeling good. But the way that it looked in the villa, I know it's TV and in real life, it's probably a little bit different. I just, I don't see them too getting locked down. Yeah, yeah. I'm with you on that.

And I just got to say, like, the last few episodes of Love Island are always my favorite. And I know it's the less drama because everybody's settled in their couples and they're just kind of waiting it out to the end. But seeing their last dates and, you know, watching Justine and Caleb

said that they love each other. And then they got to face them with their family. or video to have their families because, you know, they couldn't have their families actually show up there. And seeing Caleb cry talking to his little sisters was so cute. It was instant tears for me, just crying, watching them all see their families every time. I'm like, why am I crying? But it was just, I love Caleb. I love Caleb.

Yeah, the family episodes really get to you. Oh, they really do. They really do. And especially when the parents are just so proud of their kids. Like Justine was so worried that her family was going to be critical of her being there. Like, you know, they're more conservative and she didn't want to do anything that they wouldn't approve of. And, you know, immediately her mom was just like so proud of her and they love Caleb. And it's just they're all crying.

I'm like, this is just beautiful. I know. really is. The thing is for me, I didn't necessarily cry, but I still very much enjoyed it. I got to be really locked into the season to start crying when the families come home. And I feel like, although I watched, I wasn't completely locked into the show. It just, the UK version is just so much better than the US version that it's hard. It's really, you know, you'll, you still watch it, you still enjoy it. It's hard to not think about the UK. It definitely is, but I will say, I think we're heading in the right direction.

Like this season was so much better than the first season. So, yeah, hopefully we just keep getting better if the show continues to happen. Absolutely. Kissing stranger. Scott Dissick was seen out with a model, Bella Banos. And honestly, at first, we thought new model for Scott Dissick is going out on a date with no, to Nobu, obviously, the L.A. hot spot. Everybody goes there. This girl has been around Scott before.

She has been on the Kardashians before. If you remember, 2017, there was a little, was it an episode? I don't remember exactly. It's not exactly coming back to me, but there was a time where they went on vacation as a family and Scott Dissick invited a model, Bella, to Costa Rica. And, you know, obviously this was in the headlines and Daily Mail talk to her. And there's quotes from her in 2017. And it's all kind of weird.

And now Scott was seen back out with her. I feel like he's dating around again. And maybe he's not looking for anything serious. But it is strange that she actually was seen with him prior to this. Yes. And now this is kind of confusing too because when this had happened on the show and there was a conversation about it afterwards, she was Chelsea. Like, I believe she went by Chelsea. And now her name is Bella.

I'm guessing she either changed her name or at some point, like, because there's a confusing thing here. The model that they had said, you know, oh, Scott threw the model to where they were on vacation. And everyone had referred to her as Chelsea. Now, if you look at the pictures, it's the same girl. It's the same person. But now she is Bella.

I am so confused about the Chelsea. We could be wrong here. I'm so confused about the Bella Chelsea situation because I feel like I've seen this girl for a while Josie Konseko I think is good friends with her and she would post her often. And I always saw her as Bella. I've never seen her name be Chelsea. But somebody DMed us and was like her real name is Chelsea and she was seen before with Scott and they were calling her Chelsea. I don't know how you go from Chelsea to Bella. Maybe her middle name is Isabella.

I have no idea. I feel like also when you're growing up, everybody wants their name to be Bella. Bella is just a cool name. And you're like, maybe she would be a cool name. Maybe she just thought like the alliteration. Yeah, Bella Vanos,

kind of cool. So I get that. Still freaks me out when all of a sudden people have a different name from not that long ago. But still, I'm happy for Scott. I feel like I think he needs to date around.

He had a really serious on and off relationship with Courtney for years. Then he had a really serious relationship with Sophia Richie that he just ended things with. And also Sophia unfollowed him. Yep. On Instagram. I feel like he just needs to date around. Why jump back into a long-term relationship when you're Scott Dissick and you probably want to wait around for Courtney anyway? Just date some models and wait for Courtney. And it does seem like from their history that perhaps this is the girl that he calls when he's looking for a girl to go out with, you know?

Like, she's been around long enough where it's like he's got, you know, Bella's on speed dial, like, and she's showing up when asked. Yeah, I mean, not a bad place to be. If you're a young single, single girl who doesn't really care and she's having fun and Scott Dissick's calling you up to hang out and you're not looking for a serious relationship. Yeah. Why not? Definitely.

Why not? So we'll see what happens with, um, Scott and Bella Chelsea Bannams. We're getting into our interview with Kim Zilsiac Bierman, but first we have amazing, exciting news from Coors.

The world's most refreshing podcast. Yes. I am joined by a very special guest, the fabulous Kim Zulciak Bierman. Thank you so much for talking to me today. How are you doing? I'm good. Thanks for having. having me. I love doing these interviews from home sometimes because the people like yourself

who have a family, it's just kids running around, dogs running around. There goes to the dog right there, of course. He's very nosy. It's amazing. How has family time been during these last few months? You know, I love it. If I had it in my way, my kids would live in my house for the rest of their life and we would just be in our bubble. So I've really enjoyed it. Brielle's losing. your mind, but I definitely have really enjoyed the time, the one-on-one time. I feel like it's an opportunity that I never would have really gotten. So I take every minute and enjoy it. Definitely.

And now, on top of that, the new season of Don't Be Tarty is coming out. So this episode is airing on Monday. So tomorrow, Tuesday, October 6th will be the new season, season eight. And you guys are spending a lot of quality time during this season, too. An RV trip? What made you guys want to do that? Well, I, Kroy, of course, you know, he kind of, he grew up in Montana and camping and RVs and I'm not into that. But I did say, I think it would be really cool to take all the kids for two weeks or so, 10 days, you know, cross country, it'd be like fun.

Well, they ran with it and it was almost six weeks. And it was a lot. And I think it prepared us for all this COVID stuff because we were literally locked in this space for almost six straight weeks. Six weeks is crazy in an RV. What were you able to pack? What did you bring? So I packed 40 outfits for every single person. I had a rack of clothes.

They had pictures with their shoes and their headbands. For example, if it was Kaya, Breel and Ariana pack themselves mostly, but we did have like a stylist come and just bring us some clothes, I think like maybe 10 outfits each or something, but 40 outfits we all needed. And it was rough. It was definitely tough.

I had all my wigs. I mean, I brought all the shoes that I needed. Croy's like, surely you're going to bring maybe three pairs, right? I'm like, no, no, we need to figure it out. So you'll have to see how we got those cross-country because it wasn't in the RV. Right. I was going to say the clothes might need an RV of their own. Yes, yes.

You'll see. What, what, so obviously we're going to watch it all go down. But what was kind of the best and worst part? of being on an RV with your family? I think the best part, again, is, you know, is being together, you know, just everybody really being together and my girls are getting older. And so being together, spending that one-on-one time. And the worst part was being together and spending that one-on-one time because the first

week, great, the second week, great. But there were times where, I mean, the girls had to share a bed with the twins. So that was interesting. And they're older. And then they're dealing with, you know, eight, seven, and six years. year olds or actually, yeah, seven, six, and five year olds, whatever. And I mean, yeah, I guess it was the best and the worst part, honestly. The very worst part was the weather. I don't ever recommend anybody, anybody ever taking an RV trip anywhere towards the West in the dead of summer,

ever. It was like 112, 118. The RV was like 98 degrees inside. I'm not even kidding. You like, I cannot be hot. I cannot be hot. And I was very hot. Oh man, I can't imagine doing it during those months. I've never done the RV thing, but I'm currently trying to do something with my friends, actually. So I feel like I'm talking to the perfect person. We kind of want to do an RV across the country. And I've, like I said, I've never done it. So what would be your advice to someone who's getting on an RV with their friends?

Like, how do you survive that trip? A lot of wine. Definitely a lot of wine. wine, I think really have a plan. I do, I mean, if we didn't have Bravo, thank God, who had, you know, plan like, we need to be here at this time to get from point A all the way to Z, basically. Having a plan is really, really important and exactly where you want to stop. You know, we didn't think about weather. We didn't think about sleep in some of our planning. We didn't think about a lot of things. Food for us. I carried, I brought all my wine and I brought all my water because I'm really fussy about

what I drink, the food in some of these very small towns was rough and trying to get food that I was like, even my cream, this Landlake's cream that I love so much isn't sold in all the states. So that was tough. I think planning is very, very important. Yeah. Was, so was Tracy able to come with you guys or no? Tracy came for a short time because she's now. She has canon. She came for a very short time. But when we left the very first day, she came and she didn't pack any food for us. So you'll see. We stopped maybe 20 minutes in. You know, we're all hungry 20 minutes in. We've been on the RV 20 minutes. That's amazing. Yeah. So we were all kind of stressed. This was like months, like two months of planning went into all of this. And now this is season eight of this show.

You guys have been doing it for a long, long time. What do you love about continuing to this show and has it gotten harder as your kids have gotten older? What I love, love, love about Don't Be Tarty is I get paid to film and be with my family. You know, they just capture what's going on in our lives at the time. They, you know, and I get paid for it. We all do, you know, so it's very, I'm very appreciative and grateful for that. The kids, as they have gotten older, I think it's gotten easier. they all want to be on camera.

And at first, KJ was like not into him. He was first born on Housewives. I mean, he would just scream. He hated it. So we didn't really put him on very much. Now, I mean, you can't take him away from the TV, the cameras. And our crew is our family. So it's like, you know, just one big party for several months a year.

That is amazing. If you could continue to do this show forever, would you do it? Yes, definitely. Yes. I definitely would. there's no question about it. It's very, it's very chill. I mean, we do have things that we've shared that have been very difficult to share.

Obviously, cash being bitten and stuff like that was very difficult for us to share. But the majority of the moments are really happy ones. And we have professional footage forever to go back. Right, exactly. Like that's what so many people say about the reality shows with their families. It's like you have professional home videos that you'll have forever. Now, you and Croy are just, couple goals, everything is, as people want to say. And, you know, you've been married almost

10 years now, right? It'll be not. We've been together 10, over 10, and I'm married 9 in November. That is amazing. What, what is your secret to a healthy, long relationship? I mean, have you seen him? That's true. That makes it very easy. That makes it very easy. You know, I think, Crohn, why does it keep making these fucking noises? Hold on. Oh, no, you're fine. I feel like there might be some entering and exiting of the... You know the computer.

I don't know anything about this. Croy's over here, like setting it up for me because I am just... Okay. Thanks, Croy. You're welcome. Okay, perfect. I think Croy and I just really do click. He's pretty passive.

I'm not. I think you could not get two more opposite people. I mean, Croy and I are very different from like the food we like to Croy could just have a beach towel outside by some trees and he could sleep great. Like I need a mattress, a down comforter. Like we're very, very different people. But I think because of that, we especially as parents, really bring two different things to the table for our kids and teach them, you know, all about who I am, all about who Croy is. But I think we just click. And we really, I mean, I feel very, very blessed.

I know a lot, you know, what is it? 60% end up in divorce. I just feel very blessed. We're just friends. We're together 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We weren't initially during all those years of football, but the last four years we're together every single day. My girls are like, mom, it's enough.

Like, don't you want to go out with us tonight or, you know, whatever? And we're very open and honest with each other. And Corey does not do social media. And he doesn't, he has. pages, social media pages or whatever, and he'll post here and there, but he's not into social media and all that because, I mean, I think with that comes a whole other set of problems. That's very true. I think having a significant other, especially as a woman, having a significant other who is like not as into the social media world and kind of like ignores all that stuff,

it's great. It's great, too. I am hands down, agree. I think it's fantastic. We know the social media world from Breel and Ariana. We see more dick picks every day than I ever want to see. Like, it's barbaric. So I'm like, you know what? It's probably best you could just stay off in there. Oh my God. I can't even imagine what the DMs of those girls for those girls. It's got to be, it's got to be so crazy. How do you guys now deal with, you know, your daughters are grown up women now who obviously date and go. And, and go. out and whatnot. And how do you guys as parents kind of deal with new boyfriends and boys and such? Well, Ariana has a new boyfriend. Yes, I did see that. Yeah, Aaron. And he's very cute.

Yeah, and he has an identical twin. They're identical. Yep. So that's crazy. Yeah, like creepy identical, though. It is very weird. Like sometimes there's like, but you can kind of like see the difference. Right. This is very strange. But he's really sweet. He's from South. Is it from North Georgia or South? I always get Dalton confused. I think North Georgia. Very country, very similar to Croix.

He's very thoughtful and sweet North, North Georgia, like far up in the mountains. We adore him, actually. He's really a big help even with the kids. He plays hide and seek with the boys. And he's fun. Brielle, on the other hand, she has, I don't even know, huh? Northwest. West. Briel has, I would say, a good 12 people every day that are begging to date her. And she's like,

it's not the vibe. I'm like, what is the fucking vibe? Like, what is it? Because there's 12 people. They're all different and they're just not the vibe. She's like, it's just not the vibe, mom. It's just not. And I'm like, okay, great, Breel, what is the vibe? But she, she's just not feeling it. She's kind of like me where I dated these people, like all these people, kind of boyfriends and friends. But then, like, you meet one person and you're with that person. And you're with that person. them for a few years and then you maybe break up or marry whatever and it's kind of this briel's very similar to me. Ariana prior to Aaron, you know, she thought everybody was the one. Yeah. That's and you know what, I feel like Brielle is in that perfect age where it's like, have fun. There's just, you know,

it's like the time of your life, have the time of your life. And there's time for all that stuff later. Reel wears like, I mean, you could just look at LAX last week, the airport like this oversized t-shirt. and Doc Martin ugly-ass boots. And I'm like, what, Breel, you're 23, you're so beautiful. Like, rock it, enjoy it because I'm 42, and I can not wear that anymore. So, like, enjoy it, but it's funny. She's like, no, Mom, everything's not the vibe. Anything I say is just, but yeah, she's, I mean, I'm trying to get Brielle to, like, live it up.

But she's, she chills at home. She likes to hang out with their siblings. I feel like more than any guy. That's fantastic. And that's so funny that you say that about the outfits. It's like my mom does the same thing to my sister, who's about Brielle's age. And, you know, she is tall and beautiful. And she wears the long T-shirts and the biker shorts and the big ass doc Martins and everything.

My mom was like, is this, is this what's in style? Like, what is it? I'm like, I asked, like, those shoes are so ugly. What are super ugly? That nirvana that looks like it's been washed 150 times, which I'm sure, you know, it is vintage, I guess. but that's what she'll say to me too like it's vintage it's like you know she dresses and then you have ariana who it's like sweetie are you going out wearing that um let's put it let's put a jacket on or something very good so good very different but you guys all get to you know work together you have

your cosmetics and and all that you do with with the girls which are so cool how can you explain like kind of how that came to be and what you love doing about with the makeup with the girls medics started because, well, Breil's, what, 23, Ariana's, she'll be 19 next month. And I knew Ariana was going to go away to college. She was going away to college. And then COVID, of course. So she's still here. Thank God. But so she was going away to college. And I just can't imagine. Breel did move out for a period of time. But she only slept like Fridays and Saturdays at her apartment. And then she was here kind of during the week, even though she was like sneaking in. And it was kind of funny. But like the thought of like letting my girls just go, which I'm not,

never going to hold them back, but like setting them free is like scares the shit at me. Like I can't imagine it. I worry sick about them. Like we're on the phone constantly. I have to face time them if they are somewhere to make sure they're wherever they are spending the night or whatever, make sure they're safe. So I was like, what can we do? This is to myself, not to them. What can we do that we all really enjoy? So maybe they'll just stick around like where I'm at, you know, and they'll kind of build a house maybe next door. And so we all really, really do love cosmetics. And we've dipped in cosmetics and played with cosmetics and are very fussy about cosmetics and the way they look, what's what's in them, the way they feel. And so that's really

kind of how it came about. So I was like, hey, you guys want to do cosmetics? And they were like, yeah, let's do it. And then after everything was done and we got cranked and I was like, oh, by the way, this is my plan. And they're like, yeah, right, it's not going to work. We can do cosmetics from wherever. Yeah. They're like, nice try mom. We can, you know, we can go and join the meeting through Zoom. And we don't have to. We don't have to actually live next door, Mom. Nice fried. That's old school.

It's not the vibe. Yeah. Well, it's still so fun that you guys get to do all that together. You have so many cool things going on. On top of that, you have your swimwear, salty case swim, which is, the stuff is beautiful. Girl, wait until you see what's coming in October 12th. Unbelievable stuff. I was checking out the Instagram before I came on with you.

And the suits are so, so cute. and kind of what's, what's your, what's your process like with the swimsuits? What, what, how is your design process? Well, I design. I've hired two women now to like assist with kind of the manufacturing. All my fabric is from Italy and sustainable. So they kind of help me with the design. I kind of draw, I'm the worst, worst person that I can't even draw a stick figure.

So it's very hard to convey to our manufacturers like the vision. So I have a couple of people that I talk to every single day, 100 times a day, and convey the vision and what my goal is. My goal for in general with the suits is fit. I, for example, like high-wasted bottoms, but I want it to be like a very sharp V, you know, and then have the band to the side and a very sharp V in the back. You get these fat, you know, hoo-ha areas where the front of it's like shape like a U.

I mean, I just had the hardest time finding bathing suits that fit and that felt great and that looked great. So my fabric is like a little slice of heaven. I'm all about like the touch of things and feel of things. It's double lined. And I just, it's really my passion. Like I'm obsessed with it. I have clothes coming out as well. Yeah, I just, it's truly my passion.

I've had the most fun doing Salty K. Croix deals with all of the shipping with the, you know, the fabric from here, you know, Italy to L.A. And Corey deals with all of like that. It's just my mind behind the creative. I didn't think of a website or who's going to ship the stuff or I just started designing. So thank God for Croy because he's been running all of that. That's amazing. Like I said, the suits are so beautiful.

And new designs are coming out so soon. It's going to be so, so great. And you just have, there's so many cool. things going on. But I feel like social media during COVID has felt a little heightened. Like, everybody is just in each other's business a little too much. How do you kind of cope with criticism and all attention from social media? Well, I haven't been posting much because people have so much shit to say. Yeah. So I'm just like, you know, fuck it. And I definitely don't share as much as I used to at this time. I just think there's a lot of haters, you know, behind that

computer screen. So, but when I do post, do you know that there's a button now where you can just allow people that follow you to comment? So that's, I did not know that. And so that was cool. But then I was like, well, I don't know if I like that. So I'm back and forth with that. But I start, you know, I do get feisty. Like if you say some things that kind of trigger me or talk about the kids, I get pissed. And I start, pop, pop, pop, pop. and Croix can tell from across the room. Give me the phone. Give me the phone.

We're not sending that, you know, like, he's the rational one here. I do pop off at the mouth sometimes. Like, this girl will be like, look at your lips. I'm like, look at your fucking hair. That looks good. Like, which is not a very good example, but I can't help it sometimes. I'm just like, in other times I laugh, I always tell my girls, it's a direct reflection of them and has nothing to do with me.

But it's like, I want you to feel like you just made me feel. So that's why I do write back sometimes. I don't block anybody anymore because I used to be block happy. And Breel's like, let them see you live. Let them see you love life and how great your life is. So I just restrict. Love the restrict button. I am obsessed with the restrict button.

The restrict button is awesome because they also don't know that they're restricted. Their comments are going out to absolutely no one. And you're like, you think people are seeing this. Guess what? It's just you. I love the restrict button. I absolutely love it. I do it a lot. Yeah. And you know what? It's hard sometimes to hold back. Like, you know, we saw, we saw people get pissed about that picture with Breel and Roy. It was so ridiculous. I didn't even know that that was going on until I landed in L.A. and all the paparazzi was like, so what do you think about the comments? And I'm like, what are you talking about? We had, I had literally no idea. I think that's disgusting. And I think it's very disrespectful. And I just, I was really appalled.

There's real issues in the world. Like, that is not one of them. It's pretty inappropriate. And it just takes one person to just get shit going. You know, it just takes that one person to start it. And then it just goes nuts. Yeah. I think it's very disrespectful to Croix, for sure.

Yeah, I agree with you. It's so, it's like I said, feel like everybody locked in their homes, we're getting really pissy for no reason and. I even zoomed in. I was sitting on Corey's lap all night at this restaurant. And I went to the bathroom or whatever. And Breel's like, I got to get a picture for your birthday to post, you know? And because we, the birthday is usually over.

And we're like, oh, my God, we didn't get a picture. So they even zoomed into like where Corey had his arm at one point on the armrest and not my, like, it was the craziest thing I think I've ever seen. Yeah. It's just gross. It's ignorant, uneducated people, I feel like, honestly. Yeah. Yeah.

I totally agree with you. And you know what? The best way to battle is that restrict that restrict button. And, you know, you're. Yeah, exactly, exactly. Well, you know what? I'm so excited to watch this new season of Don't Be Tarty. You guys, your show has become such a staple on Bravo.

Now, if you could switch to any other Bravo show, not Atlanta, obviously been there, done that. What other show would you consider? I think it really, Beverly Hills. Yeah. I think that would be kind of fun a little bit. I love like Lisa Renna and I do love Kyle. And so I think that would be fun.

And then again, I'm all over Housewives just in general. Just like, you know, it is cattyness kind of thing. Yeah, but if I had to pick, it'd probably be Beverly Hills. Yeah, yeah. I think just for like the level of fabulous, you know, they're always, they're always fabulous. And I feel like you're always fabulous. So it would work.

I think it was I just, I mean, yeah, I love them. I think they're, yeah, they're fabulous. Lots of drama, but they're definitely fabulous. It's kind of done with class. The drama is, believe it or not, I feel like is done with like class. It's very funny. That's so true. That's so true. Well, we're so excited to watch season eight of Don't Be Tarty. It premieres Tuesday, October 6th, back-to-back episodes 10 o'clock and 1030. So make sure you stay tuned for this RV trip across the country. So excited. Kim, thank you so much for talking to me.
