to our sponsor, which is Starbucks at Home. You guys know that we are huge coffee fans here at
Life Uncut. Starbucks at Home allows you to find your perfect match very conveniently and make it
in the privacy of your own home, which, do you know what, during this day and age and in these
trying times is very, very important. I, oh, I mean the both of us, but I definitely cannot live
without coffee. And we were giving the Starbucks espresso roast a solid push in the studio before
I left. You can discover your own perfect match by checking out the Starbucks at home website
www.starbucksathome.com forward slash au or you can just go and visit your local Woolies or Coles.
Now let's get into the episode.
Hi guys and welcome back to a very special bonus little episode.
This is the big cheese of the episodes.
This is the one that you've all been waiting for.
The big kahuna.
Don't talk about Jimmy like that.
The big mumba.
Been wanting to stick my teeth into this for a while now.
Alright, you're getting weird.
I know that we keep saying we're inching closer and closer and closer to the day that
Matty J won't be on the podcast anymore, but apparently today is not that day.
No, this is such a special bonus episode, and that's because we are interviewing Holly
and Jimmy, the King and Queen of Bachelor.
Wow, aren't we the King and Queen of Bachelor?
No, we're like the old haggard, like crusty has-beens.
We're the people still hanging on, recapping the new people.
we'll be 70 and being like welcome back to match on card season 57 i'll literally have no hair i'm
gonna have less hair than you that's the really upsetting thing about our relationship is that
i'm balding at a faster rate than you are so much to look forward to i cannot wait we do want to say
a very big thank you to our sponsor which is starbucks at home which makes a delicious creamy
cup of capsule coffee all in the privacy of your own home so we were supposed to be sitting down
with Holly and Jimmy in the flesh, enjoying a nice cup of coffee,
getting down to the bottom, the nitty-gritty,
just what it's like now that they can be out free and wild
and luscious in the real world.
But instead, this is a Zoom chat, and we are at home
with our Starbucks by Nespresso Italian-style roast,
which is the newest coffee in their range,
and this dark roast has rich caramelised sugar tones.
And Matthew, you know how I feel about Italians.
Are you talking about the coffee still, or...?
Well, I don't know. A girl can dream.
Anyway, we're going to get into this chat with Holly and with Jimmy.
And now I just want to let you guys know, we start this chat off just speaking to Holly.
I really wanted to better understand her experience.
And like, as you know, we interviewed Jimmy a few weeks back.
So we'd already spoken to him.
He's old news.
No one cares about The Bachelor anymore.
We want to know about the winner.
But we get it.
You won.
Move on.
There's more to life than just winning one little measly bet, Laura.
That's all I've got going on in my life right now.
Oh my goodness.
That's not what we're talking about.
What we're talking about is I wanted to get to the bottom of how Holly felt
and what her experience was like.
But don't worry, we do invite Jimmy to have a chat with us
because obviously we want to hear about how they are as a couple,
what their plans are for the future.
And we also have something that nobody else has.
This is a world first.
You're not going to hear this on any other podcast and any other media.
Holly sent us a voice recording, an accidental voice recording
that Jimmy once sent her when he butt-dart her by accident.
And some very interesting revelations were shared on that voice memo.
I can't believe we got this one.
It's so sordid.
It's so saucy.
It's like hard-hitting news.
It's going to be the front page of Daily Mail.
You need to be a detective, Laura Byrne.
So basically what we're saying is do not tap out of this episode
until you've heard that voice memo.
But anyway, guys, that is enough from us.
We hope that you love this chat with Jimmy and with Holly.
We are so happy for them.
They have spectacular teeth together.
they're going to have beautiful babies one day and honestly they make us feel old and haggard
like the old haggard bachelor has-beens that we are we need to get our teeth whitened
today we have here with us the wonderful holly the queen of the bachelor and you know what i
just want to say holly how good does it feel to be a winner because i'm a winner because you're
a winner you're a winner and i'm not jay sorry maddie jay yeah thank you thank you maddie jay
Are you recovering from this yet or are you still hurting?
I'm still utterly pissed off, to be honest.
No, Holly, I'm very happy.
It warmed my cold, dead heart watching you guys embrace each other
and for Jimmy to say I love you, it was a really beautiful moment.
I loved it.
It was so nice to watch.
Jimmy was crying like a baby last night watching that back.
He kept on looking at me.
Really?
To be like, oh, are you crying too?
But, I mean, I was just very happy.
but Jimmy is just there, like, sobbing.
So it was nice to watch back, though.
He's a real crier, which I think is endearing.
I love a man who's in touch with his feelings.
Matt's a real crier as well.
I am now.
Now that I've had kids, I cry at the drop of a hat.
I don't know if I cried for my season when we watched it back.
Matt's lying.
He cried.
I don't think he cried when we watched it back,
but he bawled like a little baby at the finale,
and then you also bawled like a little baby when you proposed.
So, like, you know what?
Consistency is key, my darling.
It's nice to be in touch with your emotional side.
It's beautiful.
It is.
I feel like there's nothing sexier than a guy that cries.
Whilst having sex.
Is that what Maddie J says?
Tears make great lubrication, Holly.
Anyway, Holly, we have you here because we want to get to know Holly.
So just so everybody who's listening to this knows,
we're going to bring Jimmy on down at the end of this,
but I didn't want Jimmy and Holly to be answering these questions together.
i didn't want you to be giving us any like censored replies for fear of jimmy overhearing
so i want the truth don't hold back okay i won't jimmy can you leave kick fine i'll see myself
it's just sitting here like some sort of minder okay i'll be sure everything you're right darling
okay we're good see you later okay holly kick him outside lock the door if you don't mind we're good
to go. Holly, before we get into the big questions, I want to start with the small stuff, the light
stuff and the easy stuff just to kind of, you know, ease you into this. How do you take your
coffee? Oh, I go for a strong latte. It's very un-Bondi of me though. No almond, no soy. When
you say strong, how many shots are we talking? Two. Pathetic. Matt does a triple shot in the
morning and it's really aggressive. He doesn't hold back. Almost went four this morning, but
opted for the traditional three that's a bit much yeah it's an overkill isn't it holly what is jimmy
saved in your phone as because i know that like when you finish the bachelor filming i mean matt
is still saved in my phone as like a avatar but you have to choose a name so that way just in case
the papsy or just in case somebody sees you texting someone in your phone you can hide it and
you can say oh actually i'm just messaging stacy jimmy is saved as wheezy because he snores like
an absolute tractor like it actually could be a deal breaker. Did you at any point on the show
think that he was going to be a snorer? Do you know what Jimmy was such a polished version of
himself as I'm sure you were too Matt that I swear at one point I asked him if he was a snorer and he
said no and I mean here we are there's no going back now. I also feel like you've been lied to.
I know exactly I'm so glad he's not here for this thank goodness actually I'd say it in front of him
But he kind of does a snore, it's like a deep ingrained snore up here
that kind of sounds like he's farting from his nose.
Like it's like.
Can you give us a really good demonstration of it?
I want people to feel like they're immersed in Jimmy's nostrils right now.
I don't know if I have enough phlegm for it.
It's kind of like a.
And you'll look over at him and he's just got this double chin.
And was it night one?
Yes.
Was it night one where you realised, holy shit, I've just ended up with a snorer?
What have we done?
Australia's most eligible bachelor.
I'm just imagining you guys like, you know, consummated the new relationship, rolled over
and you're like, holy shit, he's a snorer.
I've been lied to.
All of Australia has been lied to.
We've been led astray.
Now, Holly, I want to debunk one rumour that was circulating around you.
Now, it's not if you're a Trump supporter.
I think we've put that one to bed.
But are you an actress?
I was when I finished uni I did a very minor role in a little ABC kids show and I had so much fun
doing that don't get me wrong but I've never been an actress it was just that one little role that
I did but not paid to go on The Bachelor not a paid actress I thought it was quite unfair because
you had one little role and everybody was like oh yes she's an actor I was in a tampon commercial
and i thought it was a pretty good commercial and even off the back of that
no one for a second thought that i could have been an actor
you were also a lespex model like matt was like a fool like he modeled in
germany and nobody at the time was like oh this guy's just in it for fame he looks so disappointed
he's like why don't you think i'm good enough for this okay let's head right back to the start
You said last night on last night's episode that you didn't fall instantly in love with
Jimmy and that you don't necessarily believe in love at first sight.
Can you talk me through a little bit about when those feelings really started to develop
and when you got to a point in the whole process or your personal journey, as we like to say,
where you were like, holy shit, I'm in a bit of trouble here.
Yeah.
I mean, despite editing and whatnot, the first night on the red carpet, like it was really
nice to meet him.
And, but I was just so nervous.
he was so nervous I don't really remember that day all that well I know that sounds really bad
to say but I don't remember it wasn't like this instant like sparks flying it was for me it was
on our first single day and we just went and we did the paddle boarding and all of that and it
just felt so natural I think we realized we had a drive over there he had a bit of road rage going
on we had all the gopros of course in the car but it just felt like we were just two people without
all the crew and everything going on and we got down to the water and it it really I've seen
so many pap shots of seasons in the past and I've seen all the crew and you just see what the dates
actually look like and I was like there is no chance that I will be able to form a connection
with someone with all those people watching and on our first single date it was just like I knew
I was in trouble from then on because it was you guys would know kind of one day 12 hours of filming
feels like six months of dating on The Bachelor so yeah I really really liked him from that moment
on and then of course all this girl drama and stuff happened and things went off course and
then on our second single date it was right back to it and by hometowns I was completely in love
with him so but no love at first sight. Did you ask Jimmy at any point recently hey why the hell
didn't you give me the key to the business class lounge what was that about? I know he probably had
you in his ear maddie jay dick jay i take no responsibility at all for that holly you did
mention just before and it's something that i really wanted to ask you you mentioned about
the drama that happened in the house and like we saw it play out it was probably the biggest drama
of the season really and um it's it's pretty unusual for i guess the main character i don't
even know who can call yourself a character it's pretty it's pretty unusual for like number one
to be embroiled in that much drama I don't think we've seen it play out on many episodes or many
seasons before can you talk us through a little bit about how that came to be were you even aware
that these things were being said about you behind your back and then how did you come to resolve
that with Jimmy do you know what I was because obviously Laura you know when you go onto the
show you get put in a hotel room with someone and my buddy was Carly and we had all these chats for
you know five days you've got nothing else to do but talk to the person so before heading into the
mansion. And we had all these chats, like, we're not here for the drama. Can't be bothered. You
guys have met Carly. She's amazing. So pragmatic, just the kindest person ever. And, and she was a
really good influence for me in that as well. But we were like, don't want to get involved in the
drama. And pretty much from the moment I got there, it was probably straight after it didn't
play out on TV, but we had, I did a little paper airplanes thing at a cocktail party with Jimmy.
and pretty much from then on I had a little bit of a target on my back something that didn't sit
right with them about me and I think it was and I've heard this said before I think you guys even
mentioned it on the podcast once that you know I must have just kept to myself and I must not have
made an effort with the other girls and I must have just been really standoffish which wasn't
the case at all I noticed a lot of girls taking my humor in the completely wrong way like I'd say
something completely innocent and it would come across i remember i said something about one of
the girls i said to her because we were talking about contouring one night and i was like oh your
face looks really skinny today because we've been talking about contouring the next thing i know
the whole house is saying how fucking dare you i know the whole house is saying holly's a fat
shamer she said that her face is skinny but her body wasn't and i was like how does this get
misconstrued so then after a little while I spoke to channel 10 I spoke to Warner Brothers
and I spoke to the psychologist because obviously they're amazing with the support there but
he was just like look you're not going to get along with everyone just stick to the people that
you get along with and who get you and focus on your relationship with Jimmy and just be nice and
civil to the others and that's kind of what I did from that moment on about three or four weeks in
and it backfired on me because it just meant that I wasn't making an effort with the other girls
and I was just sticking to the people that I knew but particularly when you start getting feelings
for the bachelor it becomes really tricky and I wasn't there to make any more friendships than
the ones that I did I didn't really gel with any of the other girls I gelled with Lily, Tani and
Carly and and I'll have them as friends for life but all the other stuff I guess is just kind of
riffraff now because it's insignificant. Yeah and I think also one of the big things is that it's so
easy in that environment when feelings are running high and you do feel I mean you can't not feel
like you're being pitted against each other because you literally are you're in competition
with these women and things that can be said as a joke can very easily be taken very personally
and as an attack especially in that environment and maybe in a normal day-to-day life the reaction
would be very different and the relationships with those girls would be very very different
now talk me through I know that the big culmination of that drama sort of started
when you actually met Jimmy's sister and his cousin.
What a great way of meeting your new partner's family.
Talk me through what that was like for you
because I genuinely think it's so difficult
when somebody has said something bad about you
and then you have to defend yourself.
There's no way other than looking defensive.
It's almost like a double-edged sword
that you're going to fall on by doing that.
What was it like trying to navigate that situation?
And also, I'd love to know what your relationship is like now
with Jimmy's sister and also with his cousins so look this is actually I've never spoken about this
particularly today in media when I've been asked about this but I mean it's you guys that day
Melissa and I had a chat because she was you know producers said to Melissa and Tani who do you want
to chat to out of the girls and Melissa chatted to Jay and I I believe because you know some of
the girls said that it may be us towards the end and so I was kind of chatting to Melissa having a
little barbecue and she asked me as you do get asked on the bachelor are there any girls here
that you think are not here for the right reasons or anything like that and i kind of said to her
look i don't i want to focus on jimmy and i i don't want to go there pretty much after a little
bit of coercing i just said look i steph called me a last week oh c word last week
girlfriend you can say whatever you want it's the word that was used you might even try and
put a bleep over that if I can figure out how to do that. Yeah. So I said, Steph called me a C word
last week. You know, I don't get along with her all that well, but you know, it's up to Jimmy at
the end of the day. I'm not sure if I see compatibility with him and Tatum. And they
were the two girls that I kind of mentioned, but it was all very much prefaced with, this is my
perspective. And that's that little, did I know all the girls were actually upstairs listening
in one of the bedrooms to the whole chat oh so we've gone into this dinner party and i've gone
and these girls have just like come at me and i'm like hold on a second what's just happened
and only a few weeks later carly or one of the girls lily or tani mentioned to me by the way
you know that the reason that all of that happened was because they heard their names mentioned with
melisa so that was the real situation of what happened el scandalo so then from that moment on
it was all downhill but now tani and melisa i haven't had a proper chat with melisa yet but i
have chatted with jimmy's family also how bloody cute is this family how sweet are they i actually
like felt sorry for you last night when we were watching the episode and like your date got
hijacked but not only did your date in real life get hijacked like it also hijacked the biggest
portion of your episode it was like we didn't get to see anything that happened between you and
jimmy because it was just like a two minute shot of you guys being like oh what are you doing here
oh we're here because of this and then it was and then some random guy walks in front of the camera
and i'm like get to the romance i don't want this awkward little meet up and then 10 seconds of
jimmy's mom and dad just walking away wearing matching puffer jackets i was like what are we
watching right now such valuable time but you know that was not set up at all like they were
walking because they were staying at this nice resort nearby and they were walking up and
producers obviously spotted them and they're like yes so they just chased them down mic them up
and they come in and jimmy at first was like mom dad we're filming and they're like no no
at least it was at that point and not when you guys are like getting hot and heavy and having
an intimate scene no i'm just imagining it being halfway through the finale and he's about to tell
holy that he loves her and jimmy's mom's like hi guys i've got treats anybody hungry
mom fuck off i was really surprised when you had the chat with jimmy's dad i thought that the
conversation was really good and even you guys came back to the table and jimmy's dad was like
hey double thumbs up this is great and then you left and he was like nope not for me i was really
taken aback and then i was thinking to myself i wonder what it's like now when you watch that
back if you look at jimmy's dad and go explain yourself hey okay noel is the sweetest man i
think i've ever met we had an amazing chat obviously you guys know it kind of comes down
to editing and whatnot and there needed to be a bit of jeopardy i mean i'm not sure what jimmy
and my jeopardy was i think it was that i was too much his type i don't know how that became
our plot line or i was too much like his exes i don't know it's like oh this is a great idea
let's throw that in no but Noel is the sweetest he's been doing a lot of groveling he's like I
will make it up to you I promise when I can finally see you I'll cook you guys a nice meal
I'm like we're good now it's all good like yes you will know don't worry I'm coming for you
so is the rest of Australia I think honestly most people watching that last night was like
what is happening here like you just had the rug pulled out from underneath you
have you spoken to Jimmy's mum and dad since filming you guys have had that
contact and connection again. Yeah. Jimmy's been working in Palm Beach for the last kind of few
months. So literally every time Jimmy gets on FaceTime, it's like, it's exactly like the
episode. It's just Susan coming in from behind. Princess, hello. They're everywhere. They're
always there. No, but they're, they're super lovely. And I think, you know, when you land a
guy, you land his family. So I've been very lucky with them. Just interrupting today's episode for
a coffee break to say a huge thank you to our sponsor and that is starbucks at home now considering
that whilst we're recording this matt and myself are stuck in lockdown we have two little kids in
a two-bedroom apartment with a massive dog as well trust me we need some coffee in our household
starbucks at home allows you to find your perfect match and make a delicious quality cup of coffee
in the comfort of your own home i am personally a very big fan of a very strong cappuccino and
I am the first person to put my hand up and say I love to put a little bit of the Starbucks at
home caramel syrup in mine I'm very very guilty you guys can discover your own perfect match by
checking out the Starbucks at home website visit www.starbucksathome.com forward slash au or you
can just head on down when you can to your local Woolies or Coles Laura I am handing back over to
you and Matt when we were watching the finale I think one of the moments which seemed to be the
most emotional for you was during the car ride to that beautiful gorge setting you know it almost
became too much and I know how difficult it is on that last day because you know you're just
constantly battling in your head of like is it me is it not you want to for a second believe that
it is going to be you but then you know as a safety mechanism you're like no maybe it's not
and then it all just became too much what was it like during that day and where was your head at
driving to that final moment where you met Jimmy we'd obviously had that really nice date the day
before but Jimmy had said this comment about me being too much like his ex or something like that
and up until then I was actually feeling quite confident but I think again it was that element
of jeopardy it was going too well and I think it just had this had to be something that was thrown
in there but I kind of came into that day you guys would know what this is like I think I had a four
hour IV that morning interview. And I was just at the start, I was super confident, super ready for
the day, ready for it all to come to an end. And then by the end of the interview, after talking
about your whole journey and having to rehash all this stuff, I was just a wreck. And by the time I
got in the car, I remember driving and I was just saying to the producer in the car, I was like,
I just, I can't, there's nothing left in me. I can't talk anymore. I remember her saying to the
driver, just keep driving along this road until she, you know, until we get what her thoughts are
and what her story is. So we were driving along this road in Alice Springs, I reckon for about
30 minutes. And I was just sitting there and I was like, I am so emotionally drained by the last
three months. I never, every rose ceremony I went into, obviously we packed our bags. I packed my
bag and I would pack it completely meticulously. Like a lot of girls would leave their toiletries
or whatever, go into it a little bit confident. I was always like, I don't know where the guy's
head's at because Tim Robards, not you, but Tim Robards said, focus on the girls that you don't
want there. And then towards the end, start focusing on the girls that you do want there.
Because if you focus on the girls that you do want there, you'll go crazy. So I'd be at cocktail
parties and things, and he wouldn't even be looking at me. I'd be like looking at him being
and get nothing so so going into that last day I was just like no matter what the outcome is
I just need this this is just too emotionally tolling by the end so very happy that it ended
up the way that it did but I was just ready to hear where his head was at walking towards Jimmy
on that final moment in Alice Springs did you think it's gonna be me or were you like holy
shit I'm going home because I mean this is the thing that people don't realize is that there's
a very small period of time between when they've just said to the other girl you need to go home
now and then they're telling you that they love you so like Matt still looked like he'd been crying
and I thought he was crying because he was about to tell me he didn't want to be with me but really
he was crying because he just like smashed someone else's heart into smithereens now I want to know
how you felt because it looked like Jimmy was still crying exactly the same I had to do this
like 200 meter walk in the in the red dirt and the rubble and I had to refilm that again like a few
times because I kept on flashing my um nude underwear bloody hell Holly stop getting your
bits out I know it was my last few moments of being single you know no so by the time I got
down there he was like a mess I think it had been about 10-15 minutes since Brooke had left
so he didn't have much time to breathe when he started he started saying this whole speech about
how he thinks he should be taking more risks but is he playing it safe with me and I was like oh
but then he was like yeah but no let's do this but no I didn't know up until right up until when
he said the words I thought he was he was crying because he was about to let me go so it was right
up until the very end I want to talk about Brooke and I know that this is probably something that is
a bit challenging for you because the final episode was really hard to watch I think so
many people were rooting for you but at the same time watching Brooke's heartbreak and also just
watching how confident she seemed to be which made the fall so much worse what was it like
watching that back for you and was there anything about that that was surprising to you like as when
I say that I mean like was it surprising to see what their connection was like was it surprising
to see just how hard Brooke had fallen for him do you know what I think you guys as a couple were
were quite similar in the sense that when this was all over for us in terms of filming we had
many a whines and many a chats about all the things that I think it was actually advice that
you, you guys gave him to basically just say everything to me, whether it's going to hurt
at the time so that nothing's a surprise when, when it came out and we chatted about everything.
There was nothing throughout the whole series. I can safely say that that surprised me. I think
her intensity was kind of highlighted a lot more on the show. She's a very intense and she loves
really hard but she's a really beautiful genuine person and I think her intensity and this stage
five clinger thing that seems to be kind of going around has really been amplified by by the edit I
think a little bit and I hate to say that but I think it was really hard to watch and I think like
Jimmy was bawling his eyes out watching watching what he had to do with Brooke because he's an
amazing person he's a bit he's got such a big heart and to have to do that to someone in general
let alone on national television is horrible so yeah it wasn't it wasn't easy to watch and I think
when the time's right Jimmy and I would love to reach out to Brooke because she is a really
beautiful person did Jimmy at the start of the season say hey Holly just so you know I'm about
to kiss eight girls in the first three episodes I think he set a new record actually that's why
we dubbed in the name kinky captain within the first two episodes of the whole season premiering
Is that a record?
I would have thought Lockie Gilbert would have topped that.
Nah, I think Jimmy smashed it.
Yeah, I think he did.
Jimmy was like kissing left, right and center.
Goody got it out of his system.
I have another question in regards to Brooke.
And it seems like you guys were very good friends at the start.
Like it really seemed like Brooke was the one standing up for you
when this conflict was happening with the girls.
It seemed like you guys had a close friendship.
However, after Brooke came back from her grandfather passing away,
and I don't know if this was just editing or this was the setup
or maybe there was something it felt like your friendship had kind of diverged a little bit and
that there was a bit more separation between the two of you was that the case yeah I actually wasn't
ever I've always thought Brooke's a really lovely person but I actually wasn't ever that close with
Brooke she she was a really good person in the fact that she saw something going down at that
the dinner party or the cocktail party and she stood up for me but we never were that close
when she came back though she really came back guns blazing and and that was amplified a lot
by the edit but she did come back and I think having had this weird thing go on in her family
this really unfortunate thing with the passing of her grandfather and then come back and she'd
been texting Jimmy and I think she just kind of had a new perspective on the whole thing it was
like a real relationship I think for her and she left very much being a front runner and on TV it
was you know an episode or something she was gone but she was actually gone for about three and a
half weeks so by the time she got back we were all you know Carly by that stage hadn't even had
any one-on-one time pretty much with Jimmy and by that stage she'd had like two single dates or
something with him so there were all these things that went on and all these relationships that were
built and she left very much as Jimmy's front runner and then came back and she was like oh
what's going on here but yeah I have nothing but the best to say about Brooke I really do think
she's a very kind, genuine, beautiful person. Holly, just confirming that right now you're
at Jimmy's apartment. Is that correct? Correct. And so what's the plan now? Are you, have you
moved in? No. So Jimmy's just bought a place. I think near you guys in North Bondi and we're
moving in together in a month. What? Oh my goodness. I was going to wait for these questions
to ask whilst Jimmy was there when you guys are like together on the screen at the same time.
but holy wow yeah it's kind of crazy and we've had a few radio interviews today that are just like
you hardly know each other and I'm like yeah but when you know you know so now we've got a pretty
good pretty good idea of how everything's gonna look so yeah moving in together in a month
hopefully that doesn't end badly no nothing could possibly go wrong but I am going to give you one
piece of advice and I like that you've listened to the advice that we gave you guys up until this
point it's wear protection we don't need any more batchy babies right now just like guys take it
slow there's no rush lockdown is not a good time to procreate even if you think it might be can you
make sure that you tell him this when he comes in here because he is getting really clucky like
really clucky already so right because i reckon run the gauntlet take the risk throw caution to
the wind i was talking about having baby number three the other day so like let's just stop
anyway with that in mind let's get jimmy on the call i have a few questions for him uh he has no
idea what we have in store but we're ready yay um james yeah jimmy you're being summoned in the
corridor just like i'm busy love it that he's playing hard to get now definitely not oh this
is nice hello james hello jimmy captain kinky here he is in the flesh we are great captain
Did you put on a bit of cologne?
No, I didn't.
Yes, you did.
Yeah, well, you said I stink before.
He's getting pretty for Matty J.
We all know the true love story here.
Yeah, I know.
I do have a deep-seated crush, but that's for another day.
Looking as delicious as ever.
We want to know, I mean, we've just heard the good news
that you guys are moving in together,
and we want to know all of the things about your relationship.
I think when you first move in as a couple,
you really start to unpack, like, your partner's worst habits.
For example, we found out that you're a snorer.
look snoring's a strong word you can't hear it you're asleep
i refuse to believe it jimmy what is holly's worst habit um uh she goes when we have a little
tip she just goes quiet like it's actually quite cute though but it's also not very constructive
for um trying to talk about what the issue is so i'm just like are you angry are you sad are you
happy you're just not talking to me and i'm like okay i'm just gonna give you some holly time yeah
that's not my worst habit though surely i think that's quite nice okay i've got a whole list hold
up just keep going okay so 234 uh she wait hold on can we also look at this before he's written
on this little page i love you and then i've pissed him off in an interview and he's actually
crossed it out and said brooke under here like too soon keep her on her toes way too soon
Jimmy, can you tell me, I think that this is a pretty important question.
I think that this can be a really polarizing thing in relationships.
Is it okay to fart in front of your partner?
How do we feel about this?
Maddie, what are your thoughts on this, mate?
I think at this stage of your relationship, I think you shouldn't.
I think once you have kids, then it's fair game.
Yeah, okay.
All right.
Well, look, I like to think that you keep that stuff separate.
You are very anti-farting.
You are very anti-farting.
I mean, I wouldn't like, it's fine.
and it's like we're all human beings.
That's not what you said on the show,
and all the girls on the show will back me up on this.
You made a very strong point that you do not believe
in farting in front of a partner.
No, I said I don't believe in farting on a partner.
No, that's not what I said.
No, it's because I had a mate who said he finds it really funny
when his girlfriend farts on him.
And I was like, that's weird.
He's like, no, it's funny.
We're just comfortable and stuff.
I'm like, but she's farting on you.
If one slips out.
Poop particles.
it's not not let's keep that separate for the start of relationship anyway that got blown out
of proportion then there was this rumor in the house going around that i only think that girls
expel sweetly scented pellets they don't poo or anything like that and i i know it's fine if it
happens i haven't heard holly fight in front of me yes story's changing we're keeping it do you
think holly has heard you fart in front of her is this the voicemail
we have something that we would like to play for everybody and um i would like everybody
listening to this to tell me whether or not this is or isn't a fart now the backstory on this
is that uh holly has sent us a voice memo that jimmy has accidentally recorded like he's butt
dialed her and then let it record for a while there's a lot of like cluttering banging around
just your normal your normal cleaning the dishes yeah and then there's a noise at the
30 second mark which we want to unpack here it's very serious stuff all right i'm going to play it
for you now that is a squeaky fart it has to be
yeah that's the fart of course you listened to like three minutes in i'm a psycho i mean
i pocket dialed you i was cleaning the kitchen trying to be a good lad you know just doing the
dishes and one slipped out and it's not the most romantic thing i've ever done but but like of
course holly found the fart thing and you listened to you persisted i listened to the whole three
minutes i was like i bet i'm gonna catch him watching porn or something but i got even better
It is literally a three-minute audio message of absolutely fucking nothing
and Holly has managed to find a fart in the middle of it.
Like, for someone who doesn't want to fart in front of their partner,
like, sending them a fart in a voice memo is probably the best thing I've ever heard.
I would love this.
Thank you, Holly.
So romantic.
Hey, do you want to say the good stuff?
Like, I made you a little nice little thing last night.
Not as funny.
Okay.
Well, to be fair, it's a very cute little fart.
As far as farts go, that's ideal.
once upon a time jimmy used to send you flowers and now he sends you farts
hey guys i'd love to know obviously when we watch the finale it all ends at that moment where you
guys are embracing you've just told each other you love one another it's beautiful what happened
for you guys as soon as the camera stopped rolling holly just said can we sell the ring and
are we good like is that all you guys need or do you want me to keep lying no she what what
happened we got we got oh we had about 20 minutes of like drone shots and and we were so tired it
was late i mean holly had been you know you've been waiting around for ages and ages and ages
and then we got back with someone i've broken up with someone it's very emotional we got back to
the hotel room there was wine champagne consent form bachi cheese platter and a consent form
all the consent forms wait you had to sign a consent form didn't you no no we just got down
to hanky panky actually the lie matt ordered about 17 different meals and had eaten the world's
biggest bolognese and then he was like i'm too full to do anything i was like this is wildly
unromantic it's too full to have sex with me for a while oh look for a while like 10 minutes and
then no the consent form yeah it was it was basically like we're both sitting there like
awkwardly like okay yeah cool start reading it like we take no part in whatever happens from
now onwards if any intercourse happens that's on you and any byproduct of that intercourse that's
on you so and there's just a box of condoms in the box and the box of condoms you didn't use
those did you and i thought they were chocolates and um and one of the minders one of the minders
said to me oh jimmy i've got you something over there and i was like oh thanks that's so sweet
like that's oh that's really nice of you thanks and then i went over and looked and i was like
oh okay thanks little peppermint chocolates no that's extra large condoms i just thought that
you said any byproduct of the sexual intercourse that you have we don't want anything to do with
like you're going to go to channel 10 for child support yeah i'm sure stranger things have
happened i've got to ask and i know that in a weird sense you guys have kind of just gotten
together but we know that you've been together for a little bit longer holly just said that you
are now moving in together which is amazing news i'm going to get a little bit excited here and
ask the question but what does the future look like in terms of like when are you getting married
and will Laura and I get an invite to the wedding well you guys did give us some very very good
advice I reckon you're just going to invite Tim and Anna and Lockie and Irina yeah poor Maddie
and Laura no of course of course to be fair weddings are expensive and like you know we're
saving for a house um look I think that the plan for us is oh we're moving in together I'm not sure
if she's told you that but yeah we're moving in together so that's that's pretty big and then
look i'm 31 she's 27 i would like to have kids well she said it's four year plan i'm trying to
drag it back a little bit to like maybe like three years or two years or who knows this is where you
guys come in with the schedule thing that i told you to oh really okay we just need marley to come
back and interrupt this episode one more time for you to realize what it's actually like once you
have kids now i want to know did you guys also sign the really secretive elusive batchy contract
that says that you guys are going to stay together
for three months after filming?
No.
Was that a thing?
Well, at least I might have signed it, not know, but no.
That was a consent form.
Yeah, that was a consent form.
Oh, that's what it said.
That's bad.
No, we didn't get one of those, not to my knowledge.
No, there's absolutely not one.
There's this rumour that circulates every year
and it seems to plague every bachelor couple,
which I'm glad that you guys haven't heard the rumour yet,
but the rumour is that there is a contract
that the final couple have to sign
and that is that you will stay together for a minimum of three months after the finale goes
to air and so it's nice to know that you don't even know of the contract let alone whether it
exists or not no no haven't heard that one i did hear of a uh there's apparently a contract that
brooke and holly had to sign where you had to be always be smiling when you're in public we're
wearing masks anyway over the last few months yeah that's another creative it must have came
out of the same factory what has it been like since all the cameras have been gone since the
filming finished I mean I know that um a lot of people might not realize this but you do actually
get to have some time together um but then effectively a lot of your relationship ends
up being long distance up until this point can you talk us through what this period has been
like for you guys and and how your relationship has changed from when the finale started and to
where you're at today well I think the fart voicemail really like kind of stepped us up to
that next year so real comfortability i i feel completely um obviously too comfortable with her
i don't know when you when we've spent a fair bit of time together at the rendezvous and stuff like
that but you're on the i'm on the phone or every second of the day like it's i feel completely
comfortable with her and and i couldn't be happier and i know that people listening might think like
oh yeah like of course you're hamming it up it actually works sometimes also there was no
expectation if it didn't work for us we would have called it it's as simple as that like i'm
not going to waste my time i'm not going to waste her time so yeah the the whole batchy system does
work and and i honestly think that will be the next happy statistic to come out of the whole
thing so i couldn't be happier and i certainly wouldn't ask someone to move into my new place
just for a three-month contract so bring on the fart voicemails
well guys congrats honestly you look so happy and even from the very first interview we had jimmy
and when you spoke about being in love i remember laura and i looked at each other after that
interview and we were like wow he he really does like if he's if he's faking it he's doing a damn
good job because he seems over the moon i was like this guy will get a role on on home and away as
well if he's faking this because he's doing an exceptional job no i'm a terrible actor she's
she's the actor she's the actor apparently from two old haggard bachelor has-beens to the
the newcomers like we just want to say we're so so straight for you guys thank you so much for
providing all of the entertainment for us to do our batch uncut recaps our audiences love listening
to the recaps they have been so invested in your story and we are just so grateful for the two of
you taking time out of your day to be able to sit down and talk to us now you can go off go whatever
new couples do have sex and fart on each other
can't wait thanks having us on guys thank you so much guys we'll chat to you soon thanks for
the advice as well it's been really really helpful we hope that you enjoyed this little
bonus episode but do not worry this is not the last of us i feel like i've been saying this is
the last episode of batch uncut i'm ever going to be in and then literally the next day another
episode the next day another episode i'm working you to the bone and not paying you this is okay
this whole batch uncut thing is turning into that song which is like this is the song that
okay so what we're trying to say is that okay i'll stop sorry oh my god what we're trying to
say is is that we actually also interviewed brooke and i know we said we weren't sure if
we're going to be able to get brooke on the podcast which i totally understand i i think
when you're in brooke's position sometimes the last thing you want to do is have to relive that
heartbreak a thousand times over but she's been an absolute legend and she is going to have a chat
with us so that's going to come out tomorrow and honestly it was actually so nice sitting down with
brooke it was it was very humanizing and it was a real reminder that sometimes on these shows on
the bachelor on all reality tv shows is that we do see a characterization of someone's personality
and i think we really saw that with brooke but when matt and i sat down and we did this interview
with her we got to see a little bit more of who brooke is and what the experience was like for
her and we're really looking forward to sharing that episode with you guys tomorrow all right
laura i'm gonna end this one because i feel like i've got this one down pat tell your mom tell
your kids tell your dad tell your barista tell the bachelor tell osha because we love
this is the song that doesn't end
We'll be right back.
