Every family has its secrets.
But what happens when you discover that your dad
has been living a double life?
That is not the look of an innocent man.
Is everyone lying to me about who they are?
I felt such desperation.
I felt it was what I had to do.

Hey, everybody.
We are back on A Little Bit Famous, part of the, of course, the Almost Famous podcast.
I am Bob Gettney here with Super Producer to the Stars.
Heather Mundy.
Hi.
Heather, how you doing?
Good.
We've had so much fun talking to the crew from season four of Farmer Wants a
wife.
We've talked to.
What a great season.
Some of the couples, but it's important, too, to chat with some of the runner-ups
because we fell in love with them, too.
Sure did.
So I'm excited because today we're talking to Hannah Carpenter,
the runner-up from Farmer Brett's farm, maybe the best farm.
but I'm excited to chat with her and...
You're a little biased.
I mean, I am a little bias.
I am a little bias on Quinn and on Brett.
But I said it was,
I fell in love equally with Quinn and Hannah in this process.
And it was going to be hard to see either one of them go at the end.
I know.
I know.
Even though I knew it was going to be Quinn.
But I digress.
I do want to talk to Hannah and kind of catch up and see what life has been like
and what her experience was like on the show.
So let's bring her in.
Hannah Carpenter.
Hannah.
Hi, Hannah.
How are you?
Oh, we're so good.
Thanks for coming on the pod.
Oh, my gosh, you're so cute.
Like, the perfect color for you to be wearing.
Oh, I figured it's like literally summer here in Florida.
And I was like, I need something to kind of show off my makeshift tan.
So I'm like, I love it.
I love it.
Well, we just loved you on this season.
And of course, you know,
I just said this earlier,
but the way you handled the end of the show was so classy.
Like just,
you're like,
oh my God,
I love her,
you know,
I mean,
it was so classy.
And,
you know,
a lot of people in that moment make it all about them, right?
And like,
and that's their chance to be like,
well,
I didn't need this guy anywhere or whatever,
you know,
and they get that kind of false stuff going on.
You were just so sincere,
so sweet.
And obviously,
you know, we know, we know about you're in Quinn's friendship and how close you guys are.
And it's like, she's just, you know, and you were like, you were almost like, I love that you're
going to be with Quinn.
I mean, it was almost like, that's how it felt.
No, honestly, I think like, when we stopped filming, I said that I was like, if you hurt her,
so help me God.
I was like, you have me able to do it now.
I was like, don't even.
That would have been rough for all of us.
Imagine Brett doesn't end up with either of you.
I actually probably would have lost my mind.
Yeah, he would have.
I was so invested in both of you.
I said early on, I was like, I like them equally.
I don't know what's going to happen when he has to do the breakup.
I do kind of want to go back, though.
Why did you sign up for the show?
Or how did you get on the show?
Like, did you sign up voluntarily?
Like, how did this all come about for you?
Oh, my gosh.
Okay, so this is actually a funny story.
So about, what am I, 26 now?
Three years ago, when I graduated in grad school,
I was actually in casting for The Bachelor.
And it was for Joey's season.
Okay.
Going through that and I was getting to like the final cuts and at the end,
I didn't make it.
And it was fine.
I mean, I was 23.
I was in no position of I was like, well, let me get a fiancee.
Let me get married.
I think it was just like, ooh, fun.
And then a few years later, one of my friends was like, have you ever seen the show
Farmer Once a Wife?
And I was like, huh?
I was like, Farmer wants a wife.
And she's like, I think you should apply for it.
And I was like, there's no.
no way. I'm going on a farm. I was like,
I see me like, no. She's like, come on. She's like, you already kind of know, like the
casting like process. She's like, just do it for fun. Like, why not? And so then, you know,
we did the video and I was actually at work and I got a text and it was like, hey, this is
so and so from casting. And I was like looking around and I'm like, am I being like punked right now?
Like, like, pop up. And then it just kind of snowballed into this thing. And I was like,
my mom's like, are you like actually going to go? And I was like, yeah, I was like, I think this is
happening because you know what's so touch and go they're like we'll call you in two weeks we'll
right right I'm like I don't know I'm like do I buy all these outfits do I buy all these boots
like I'm like I don't know and then you know come October they're like we're flying you out to
Nashville and I was like oh my gosh that's so excited this is a perfect example though
Hannah if you don't know I my background is in reality TV casting so I've done uh quite a few
dating shows um and yeah one thing I will say to people is
you actually don't often get chosen the first show that you apply for.
More often than not, people that you see on TV have auditioned for different shows.
And that's why it's very funny.
Like when I see a show come out and I go, oh, yeah, I interviewed that person for this show.
I interviewed, like, it happens all the time.
It happened on Love Overboard that came out on Hulu recently.
I was like, two of the people on that show.
I've auditioned for other shows.
So it's very common your experience.
of trying out for Joey's season, not making it,
and then making it on to another dating show later.
That usually happens for people.
Yeah. It was honestly, like, so crazy.
I think it was, I had just broken up with my boyfriend at the time,
and my mom was like, I'm going to nominate you.
And I was like, okay.
Because my mom's very like,
she's going to be a spinster for the rest of my life.
She's like, if I don't get her married,
and I'm like, oh, my gosh, I'm like, can you not?
Yeah.
And so she didn't want to win and then that snowball.
And obviously, you know, I say everything happens for a reason.
And so now I'm going to be a bit of a moment.
on this show and I'm super fortunate for that.
But it's just funny how everything works out like that.
I love it.
You have your first interaction with Brett and he immediately breaks the rules and invites you back to the farm before telling the other women.
Which I was like, whoa, that is, he's not supposed to do that, but I kind of love it.
Did that kind of make you feel like I'm a bit of a front runner?
and were you also as confused as we were
that you weren't invited to the farm first?
I mean, honestly, the whole thing was so,
I mean, I'm so nervous, right?
I'm like, I've never talked to this guy.
I'm like, I've seen like a video of them.
And I'm like, now I'm going to go meet him.
And, you know, we're talking.
And, you know, Brett, he's a little bit more reserved.
And I'm like, I'm being the thing where like, I'm over talking.
But it worked because you could tell how nervous he was in that moment
because you're the first girl to talk to him on.
camera. And you really owned that moment because you can't both be nervous. That's like,
that's going to be awful. You were so sweet. Though, it was like, I think, I think everyone fell in
love with you right out of the gates because of the way you handled that conversation. You know,
you were like, you were the one who was just like almost like making him feel comfortable in that
moment, you know? And I'm sure that's part of your dynamic now. Like he, we talked to him and he was
like, oh my God, she's the best, you know, between her and Quinn. He's like, he's like the three of us.
Quinn's like it's basically the Quinn and Hannah show and then we let Brett tag along.
No, 100%.
I mean, I told him, I was like, if you don't end up with her, it's going to be me and her at the end of this.
I was like, my friendship, I mean, we're just, we talk every single day.
But I mean, I think going into that first meeting, it was like, okay, I'm like, we're both nervous.
And like, you kind of just have to like go all in.
And I'm just like, you know what?
Screw it.
Like, we're both in this uncomfortable situation.
And he did such a great job of making me comfortable in the uncomfortable, which was.
Yeah.
great. And so, I mean, it just kind of blossomed from there. But I think when he invited me back, I was like, I think I looked around at first. And I was like, wait, is this like a joke? Like I was like, huh? Because like, I know for like the Bachelor, it's like, oh, the first impression, bro. Like, you know what I mean?
Or shows? And it's like, do you want to come back? But farmers, they don't ever do something like that? And he's like, do I go back on the farm? And I was like, yeah, let's go. And then I was like, oh, I walked away. And I was like, oh, my God, like, I'm actually going to the farm.
That was awesome.
What was your first impression?
Like when you got there, when you got to the farm, was it like, oh, my God, this is like a real farm, you know?
Or what was you, what were you thinking?
Oh, I was like, there's nothing around here.
I was like, there's like, like, Jopla.
Like, you know, I'm like, we're in the middle of nowhere.
I'm in this cabin and I'm like, oh my gosh.
I'm like, there's cattle and there's horses.
And I'm like, City Girl with a country playlist.
You know, like I live on like a CNN.
I'm not, you know, I've been.
never farmed before. I've never like done any of that. And I was like, oh my gosh. And then,
you know, Quinn has kind of, she's more of like city girl and country girl. And she was like,
oh, like my mom has a farm and did, da-da-da. So I really leaned on her. And I was like,
okay, like, is this like what we're doing? And I was like, for a second, I was like,
there's no way that like people can actually like live like this in a way. I was just like,
there's no restaurants. Where's the city? Where's the bars? We're like, where are we going
out? And he's like, no. He's like, this is, this is home. And I was like,
But it was so fun to see and just to be around like that environment was just total switchup,
but I loved it.
Yeah.
I thought you did great.
You did.
So great with it.

In the moment, it felt like it was going on forever.
I didn't think I was going to live.
I was terrified.
There was no anything inside those eyes.
They turned black.
It scared the hell out of me.
That was your first murder case?
Yes, sir.
Fear to say this was the biggest case of your career?
Yes, sir.
Rape and murder for a child.
As bad as it gets.
I would think so.
Evil, wake up.
I'm the one that saw the murder take place by Crevent and DePippo.
Anthony DePippo showed no signs of remorse,
appearing unfazed after being sentenced to the maximum.
I said I'm not guilty.
I'll take it to the grief.

Keith Gianmanca seemed like a mild-mannered suburban dad,
but secretly, he became someone else,
a master of disguise who went on a crime spree.
At the time, did it seem like a crazy idea?
It seemed very crazy.
but I felt so desperate that I felt it was the quickest, easiest way out.
Did you allow yourself to think about how it could go wrong or what that might look like?
No, I didn't want to manifest that.
I was trying to manifest success.
Every family has its secrets.
But what happens when you discover that your dad has been living a double life?
That is not the look of an innocent man.
this is going to change my life and my family dynamic forever because everything that had existed prior in my reality is now untrue.
Listen to Deep Cover the Family Man on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Serious question.
Yes.
Is Brett better at dancing or kissing?
Well, considering I have two left feet, I would say definitely dancing.
Were you surprised as we were by his dancing skills?
I literally told him, I go, you have rhythm.
I go, where was that in your like casting tape that I saw?
Yeah, he's a good dancer.
I was like, what happened?
But he's also enthusiastic while he's dancing.
Like that whole episode, that man was twirling somebody different around and like smiling as he was doing it.
I couldn't, I could not pry my ex-boyfriend to get on a dance floor ever.
Like the way Brett was dancing, I was like, he's clearly had classes.
He says he just likes to dance.
I made so much fun of him.
I was like, so is this like your stepping sound of dancing with the stars?
That would be fun.
It's actually a really good point.
I know. I was like, I think this could be a good avenue for you.
And he's like, no, I'm not doing that.
And I'm like, oh my gosh.
I'm like, okay.
This farmer just wants a wife.
I don't want to dance.
I thought that your connection with him was so sweet.
I loved your guys' one-on-one date where you went shopping and stuff like that.
That was really cute.
I want to know, were you shocked?
at the elimination, or had you and Quinn talked the night before and kind of discussed, like,
he didn't kiss me when he met my family and she was like, well, he kissed me.
It's like, did you kind of, did you, did you talk about that?
I mean, I kind of knew going into the elimination.
I think that's why I think I actually put it on of like, oh, I'm really calm.
I'm really content.
I mean, you had to be blind to not see their connection.
Uh-huh.
And it was really funny because we were in hotel rooms and like we couldn't talk.
And, you know, the day of we snuck letters to each other.
And I think, you know, just seeing how they interacted on camera and off camera,
I was like, no, they have a really strong connection.
And I think him and I had a great connection.
But I think towards the end, I was like, this is more of a friendship.
And I was like, that's totally great if that's what I leave here with.
And so, you know, her and I just talking about it.
Because obviously, you know, it's just you two.
You're in the situation.
And we're beating this dead horse.
day in and day out and I was like I go you're gonna be fine I were holding her hand like the night before
and I was like it's all gonna be fine I was like I promise you and she's like I don't know I'm freaking out and I was
like no and I'm like winking at her and I'm like you're gonna be fine this is how you wink Quinn this is like
yeah this is what we call it I was like you know this is how you wink with that eye like
okay so I mean I kind of knew going into it and Brett was so honest too like he never played games
he was so great throughout the whole process that I was like, no, I kind of, I knew.
And especially with the call time too, I was like, I was like, there's no way he's going
to be breaking up with her in the afternoon.
Like I was like, I was like, you know, right and early.
And I was like, I was like, you know what?
Let's just have fun with it.
And it was honestly the best day.
I wish I could have hung out after.
I was like, can I stay and like watch?
And they're like, no.
This is my best friend.
No, I was like, I want to see this.
Those relationships, so I will tell you, when I was on The Bachelorette before I was the Bachelor, Trista and I had that same type of relationship, and so did Ryan and I.
So when Trista and Ryan got together, I was like, oh my God, I'm so happy right now.
It was like one of those things.
And to this day, the three of us are great friends.
Trista and I, of course, do a podcast together now 20 years later.
It's like, you know, you never know.
I mean, that relationship, I get it.
It might not be as important as the other one, but it's right there.
You know, it's right there from an importance perspective.
And like, Quinn and I talk about it all the time.
I'm like, you're the only one who understands what we went through.
And I'm like, we're trauma bonded.
100%.
That is what this is for you guys.
For all of you that were involved in this season.
Yeah, I was like, we have no phone.
We only have each other.
We're stuck in a cabin in the woods.
And I'm like, we're going through this together.
And it's uncomfortable and it's weird.
And it's like kind of funny.
And I'm like, we're like sister wives now, essentially.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't think I go a day with all.
talking to her. I'm sending her like voice memos.
I'm like, Brett calls me and I'm like, oh my gosh,
I'm like, can you give me like one second?
Then we put in Quinn and then, you know, so it's just,
I got a best friend out of it.
I mean, I got two best friends out of it, really.
I told him I stuck with me forever.
Are you kidding me?
Yeah, I love that.
I love that.
Well, we fell in love with you, obviously.
We did.
We did.
What has life been like since the show finished?
Are you dating what's going on
in that department?
Oh my gosh, guys.
Wait, I was so hoping you were going to ask this because this is hilarious and I have to tell
this story.
So we've wrapped around like Thanksgiving time, right?
And I'm like, okay, I'm going to get back out there so I get on Raya.
And I'm like, you know, I'm swiping.
I'm scrolling.
And I match with this guy.
He's from Florida and he's like normal.
I'm like, all right.
He has this normal job and we're talking.
And I'm honestly, I'm telling Quinn this whole thing.
And I'm like, I really like him.
He's really cool.
And, you know, we're going on dates left and right.
And eventually he's like, hey, listen, like, I'm just really busy with work.
I don't have time for a relationship.
And I'm like, I'm sad.
I'm like, okay, it's cool.
Like, don't worry about it.
Like, I get it career first.
And a month later, I get a call.
And he's like, are you with anyone?
And I'm like, what the heck are you calling me about?
Like, we ended.
What's up?
He's like, I'm actually going on Love Island.
No.
I go, oh, so you, when you said you were busy with work,
that meant that you were just going to get a tan in Fiji.
Oh, my gosh.
Hannah.
Drop the name right now.
Who is it?
He's not on it yet.
He's not on it yet.
Okay.
Not on it yet.
But I was like, he goes,
I just want to make sure you're not going to make any TikToks about me.
Like,
also I go,
well,
thanks for the PR call.
I was like,
I was like,
now you're just giving me two weeks to plan.
And of course I'm putting you on blast.
I was like,
I was like,
and I remember calling Quinn that night.
And I go,
how in the world do I find two guys on reality dating shows?
that I'm like love.
I'm like, he could have just told me.
Mind you the casting process is like, what, six to nine months?
I'm like, you could have just said something.
Like, I would have gotten it.
I was very honest from our first and second date.
I was like, listen, I did this crazy show.
Like, didn't work out.
We are amicable.
Like, no hard feelings.
He's like, that's so cool.
I love that.
And now he's.
Well, it's so weird that he didn't bring it up,
especially if you were talking about what experience you just have.
Well, well, well, I'm, you know, I usually thought I'm like,
oh, he's dating other girls.
girls or you know something like I thought I'd have to ask are you on a reality dating show too?
He very well could be dating other girls. That was one of the things. But he more than likely did not
bring it up because because of fear of maybe you contacting the casting department and being like
this guy's not single. I've been dating him or something like that. That's usually why they kind
to keep it under wraps. He also very well could have been.
been getting strung along in the casting process and because of how things work and because
there's so many people they bring on that show, even people that don't end up making it onto the show.
So keep your eyes peeled because that's even more embarrassing.
If he actually gets flown all the way out there just to be held in a room and actually
never makes it onto the island, that'll be hilarious.
But it goes back to my theory, Bob, that I have said time and time again, hot people.
are with hot people.
And you guys live in a different universe
than normie people like me.
And that's why you ended up from a reality show
meeting another guy that was hot enough
to go on a dating reality show.
Like, that's why.
Because you're in the hot universe.
That's why.
Thank you.
It's the truth.
When I told my best friend,
I was like, Devin, who was on,
came for family visits.
She was like, you cannot make this up.
She was like, you're a love.
And I was like, I, in my business is like the first guy I've liked.
And like, I'm like, wow, like he's really great, like close to this family, like, amazing.
And then he's like, no, I'm going to Fiji.
And I'm like, oh my gosh.
I will say in Devil's Advocate that that show can change your life in the sense of how many eyes are on it.
But it can change your life in good and bad ways.
It really like the skeletons in the closet thing, I have a feeling, Hannah, you were not.
the only person who got a phone call like that. Just put it that way. Like,
1,000%. I mean, it was being like, I was like, he's not going to call me and tell me he's
pregnant. Like I was like, you know, like, why are you calling me? Like, I'm like, and he's like,
oh, they're flying me out. And I was like, okay, I'm like, lose my number, please. Yeah. Oh, my gosh.
No, I, do you see those TikToks of people being like, biggest ick ever seeing my ex do a dance,
the Love Island dance and intro?
I'm crippling anxiety.
Like, I never.
I mean, even like going on farmers,
which is like, I mean, an amazing show.
I'm not doing anything cringe.
I'm like, oh my God.
I'm like, my exes are going to watch this.
They're going to, you know, and I'm like,
but Love Island, that's a whole other different beast.
Pride is like love.

I didn't think I was going to live.
I was terrified.
There was no anything inside.
those eyes. They turned black.
It scared the hell out of me.
That was your first murder case?
Yes, sir.
Fair to say this was the biggest case of your career?
Yes, sir.
Rape the murder for a child.
As bad as it gets.
I would think so.
People wake up. I'm the one that saw the murder
take place by Crevent and DePippo.
Anthony DePippo showed no signs of remorse,
appearing unfazed after being sentenced to the maximum.
I said I'm not guilty. I'll take it to the grave.

So, Love Island
Guy aside, what else is going
on in your dating life since the show. Oh my God. I mean, it's been pretty after that, like,
it's been pretty quiet. Like, I think I'm just having fun right now. And like, I'm kind of,
I've never dated a farmer. I've never really dated like a cowboy in that sense. And so I'm having
fun dating different types of people. And it's like, I'm just, when that right person comes along,
it makes me want to stop like dating and seeing other people then I know. But it's like, I have,
I have such great girlfriends and like we go out on the weekends and like we're just all hanging out and having fun and it's like that's what I love it.
I'm not really out there like I have to meet a guy.
I need the guy at the bar to come up to me because like they don't.
Like I don't know what happened to guys buying girls drinks.
I don't know.
Like they get so scared to the point where like I'm making the first move and I'm like no, no, no, no, no.
Like this is wrong.
I'm like, you can buy me a drink.
Like you can come up to me.
But no, the dating pool is, it's slim pickings out here.
Well, what I'll say to anybody that goes on a dating show and doesn't end up finding love?
Because in reality, if we're just looking at it from a number standpoint, you're more than likely not going to find love on a show when there's one person that's doing the picking, right?
You have a much better chance on a show like a Love Island where there's a lot to choose from and there's not just one person vying for everybody's attention.
So, but what I say is, is that if you use that experience to put out to the world, the kind of person that you are, what you are looking for, it's super likely that love is going to come into your life right after because you're going to positively attract. And I know that I've seen some of your fellow cast members have come out as soon as they left the farm. They were like, and here's my boyfriend. And here, this is what life has been like since I left the farm. Here's my boyfriend. So I have no doubt that you're going to find the right person. And I have no doubt that you're going to find the right person. And I'm,
or the right person's going to find you.
But I do want to know, just putting it out to the universe even more,
what kind of man are you wanting in your life?
Oh, this question.
I just think I want someone that's my best friend.
I mean, laughter is the biggest thing.
My parents have been married for 30 years,
and it's like they still laugh every single day.
And it's just I want someone who's loyal and just I can have a good time with.
And like, you know, we can rot on the couch on Sunday,
but then, you know, go out on a Friday night until 3 a.m.
And then, you know, go to church on Sundays and just have fun and that, like, duality
where we can be serious, but we can have fun.
I think if you're not having fun with your person and, you know, that's not your person.
And it's like, and I do, like, I'm, I don't know, this is kind of a hot take.
I love my job.
Like, I feel like most girls are like, you know, sometimes they're just like, I don't want
that and that's great.
And I'm not my journey.
Yeah.
You know, I want someone who's really supportive of that and like wants me to pursue that.
I mean, I'm going to be so honest.
I can't cook.
I've never cooked a day in my life.
I have shoes in my oven.
I'm being honest.
And so it's like not going to be that girl that's going to have dinner waiting for you after work.
And so it's like, you know, I kind of want the guy that's okay with that too.
And it's like, I don't know, little things.
I haven't found him yet.
But I know he's out there.
Would you say that Brett was physically?
your type that you tend to date or not so much.
And how much did that mustache rock, like on a scale of one to ten?
Because it looked really awesome on camera.
I think the first thing I asked him was, is your mustache real?
Like, I was like, is this real?
But no, Brett was honestly, I've never dated a brunette.
I usually go for that like California surfer.
I love like a snowboarder, kind of like that like adrenaline.
junkie, which I probably should, I got to cut that out.
But so when I told my mom that it was Brett, she was like, so handsome.
She goes, this is not your normal type.
She's like he's not some hockey player, you know, with the long hair or a surfer.
And I was like, no, but I always heard it's like, okay, sometimes you just have to go outside
of your type and like you end up finding your person.
Yeah, sure.
And so now he makes fun of me because she's like, you have to stop with the blondes.
She was like, we, she's like, that is like your red flag.
Oh my gosh.
So now it's like, I'm like, it's a blonde, Burnett.
And I have to send her a picture.
And she's like, he's Burnett.
You can go on a date with that.
What did you think of Farmer Brett's hair underneath that hat?
Because we didn't see it until the finale.
I'm assuming you saw it sometime throughout filming.
Well, for the casting process, he had a hat on too.
and I was like, I don't know if you, it was hair.
And I was like, I was like, that's a big thing.
I will say as casting people, we are all over that,
especially when we find the guys online and we don't want to get hat fished is what we call it.
We don't want to get hat fished.
So you have to do a deep dive.
And then during the casting process, I've never done an interview with a gentleman wearing a hat.
Like, I always make them remove it for that reason.
because you never know until they actually take it off.
But, I mean, I didn't realize when I was watching the season
that I had never seen him without a hat until the finale.
And I was shooketh by the volume.
What did you guys think when you thought?
It was voluminous.
It was voluminous.
He's got a nice thick mustache and he's got a nice thick head of hair underneath that hat.
But what did you guys think when you saw it?
oh my gosh, I was like, what products?
Because I have naturally and currently hair,
and I'm like, what products are you using?
Right.
And then he showed us pictures without a mustache.
And I remember being like, Brett, I'm going to hold your hand when I say this.
I never shave it.
I might have done a deep dive on Instagram and also found him without a mustache.
And he definitely needs to keep that thing for the rest of his life.
Or he needs to even go full beard.
I bet he could rock that too.
But he's got to keep a little.
something on there for sure.
I was like, this is your makeup.
You have to have this on.
Like, you can't, I can't see you without a mustache.
Exactly.
I agree.
So to recap, Hannah is looking for a best friend who's not blonde, who's not a surfer,
who maybe has some dark features, but is somebody that can make her laugh and somebody
that is going to be okay with her not cooking and okay with her having a career,
which are all good things in my book.
Hannah, it's been so fun getting to watch you on this journey.
We truly loved watching this season.
We loved watching the love story between you and Quinn.
We loved getting to see you, you know, share yourself with the world and be vulnerable.
It's not easy to do something like that.
And thank you so much for coming on the pod.
We're wishing you all the best of luck in not finding a man, but a man finding you.
That's what I'm going to put out for you.
well thank you so much for having me i mean i have to fan girl for a little bit because all of us
are huge fans i'm dead i can't even with you guys that's so nice it's like all the winners and then like
me and one of the other girls from day one and i were like did you guys listen to it did you guys
like or did you read the transcript and we're like every night or like the next day we're
we're listening to it and i'm like honestly you guys i mean coming from a reality tv background
too. It's like, I'm like, oh, they get it.
Like the edits. And it's like, you know,
I just love you guys so much for being so sincere and like taking,
you know, a part of that into account too.
Because I think some people can be like, oh, well, they don't have a connection because,
you know, they're only seeing this. And I'm like, well, so much gets edited out.
So much.
You know, they do so many different ways. And it's like, you guys honestly have the best
depiction of the season. And so I'm like, oh my gosh, I can't believe my movie on
podcast. Oh, you guys are the best. You guys,
If you guys ever, like, you know, end up, like making appearances on future seasons or something, like, please let us know.
It's been so fun just like getting to know you guys.
And if you get on another dating show also tell us about that because clearly it can happen.
If it happened for Heather Martin this season, ending up on your farm, could happen for you.
Again, if you're not single, you know, if you are single.
Trust me, you're going to be my first call.
I'm like, send me in as the bombshell.
Exactly.
Like, this ain't my first rodeo.
I'm like, I'll do it again.
Can I keep us posted on your Love Island person if they end up showing up?
We will be watching your social media for that.
But thanks for coming on.
You're the best.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
I appreciate it.
Bye.
