Starting point is 00:02:59 I don't know about the star. Oh, you are. Name someone more starworthy. It's like you, Lace and Genevieve ruling the world. I know. It's funny. It's so funny. I could have called that too.
Starting point is 00:03:11 And did I call that? How many times did Jared and I tell you you're going to be ridiculous and the people are going to love it? I know. It's honestly, I feel like most people love it. And there's like a small portion that are like, you're annoying get off my screen and I'm like no those people who say that you're annoying are the same people that say that I'm annoying yeah and I'm just like do you just want boring TV then right like what do you want to watch right I'm being entertaining I know now are you doing it at all on purpose
Starting point is 00:03:46 or are you just like are you just letting your freak flag fly like do you forget that the cameras are around. Yeah, I forget the cameras are around. And like, it's interesting because when you're in interview, you're just like, you say so many things. And half the things I like see myself say, I'm like, I really said that. Like in the heat of the moment, I'm just like going off. I understand. I've said some bad things. I know. And like my friends and family have been like, it's so good to see you be this person on TV because it's like I'm, you're telling me a story in the living room. You know, like they say that this is the most authentic version of myself. like I have they've ever seen on TV so unfortunately it is just who I am well you're great TV
Starting point is 00:04:29 and I got to ask about what your family thinks of the previews for next week as you're seen in um you know just pedals leaves naked or completely naked oh yeah you don't have pedals completely naked yeah I like how old am I you nicky you're naked but yeah you got totally naked with Jacob on a day, how do they feel about seeing this? So I actually walked in on them watching the end of last week's episode. So they were watching the preview. And they're like, oh, my God, you caught us. And I kind of like stood there as they were watching.
Starting point is 00:05:09 And my dad was so mortified. Like, obviously I told them before. Yeah. Like, you can't not. So I warned them. But I think seeing it, they were just like, anytime I come on the screen or if I'm kissing someone, they're like, no. So, yeah, they're pretty mortified, but I'm like, don't worry about it.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Like, I'll be black boxed. It's fine. And I think once they see it, they'll kind of understand it because it's not like sexy, raunchy. It's more like empowering and beautiful, you know? Well, the sound fight that goes along with that clip is you being pretty emotional. So is there feelings that evolved during this one-on-one that maybe you didn't feel the first couple days of paradise? For sure. Yeah, I'm excited for people to see me do the love. thing because I haven't gotten to do that yet. You know, I've just been like in the trenches,
Starting point is 00:05:56 crazy emotional, but this time I'm actually like starting to have feelings. Oh my gosh. Okay, we're excited to see this. We have got to backtrack a little bit and go to your Romeo's storyline. Now, I know you told me before Paradise that you never like kissed Romeo or anything like that, but there's definitely flirtation in the air. Can you tell people your backstory with him and Kira. Yeah. Okay. So Kira and I went to New York. So we were really good friends after the show. We went to New York and we met up with Romeo. And so there were definitely like slurcation's vibes. But at first like I wasn't feeling it. I was like whatever. Like I'm not really into this guy. And then we all like the three of us honestly became friends. And then there was definitely I'd say like Romeo and I were Florida friends. Like we both knew there were feelings on both sides. But we never crossed that line. Like, we never kissed. We never went on a date, anything like that. Um, so then when I heard that Romeo here had kissed in the club, I was hurt by it. They kissed in the club, um, when you were around or on a separate time. Yeah. Okay. It was a separate time. Yeah. And so the way that they
Starting point is 00:07:07 were like both talking about the weekend, I just kind of like assumed something had happened. And so I just like, asked Romeo point blank. And he was like, yeah, like I did kiss here. Um, and so I was just a little hurt by that because they were trying to keep it from me intentionally and then after that we all just kind of like split ways and I hadn't talked to Romeo or Kira really since January
Starting point is 00:07:30 or February. So when I saw Romeo on the beach, that was the first time that I had spoken to him since. Oh, wow. That was a long span of silence. A long span of silence. Yeah. Did they talk in between in that silence?
Starting point is 00:07:46 I think they did. Yeah. I think they did. I'm not exactly sure on what basis, but I think my understanding was that they did. Did they go to school together? Yeah, they went to Harvard together, but I don't think they were friends. And also, like, after, after all that happened, I, like, we squashed it. Like, three of us, we squashed the beef and we were just like, yeah, we just need to take some time away from each other. Like, obviously the trust had been broken and so we just were taking space from each other. But I thought we were cool. Like, I thought everyone was cool. I thought Kira and I were cool. And so that was kind of a shock when I went to paradise and then that all kind of blew up.
Starting point is 00:08:22 But did you? Because I remember having a conversation. It was very cold out. We were having some white wine. We were watching Jared golf. Oh, yes. And you were like, there's something. They're going to use this because we're probably all going to be there.
Starting point is 00:08:37 So you knew that there was potential for the storyline to continue. For sure. I knew there was potential. And I didn't know because I hadn't talked to them. So I didn't know people's individual feelings. You know, like I knew my feelings that I was like going to be very non-confrontational, try not to deal with that situation, which is what I tried to do. But then it just like kept creeping in like fear was interrupting. I didn't know she had romantic feelings towards Romeo. And so I was just
Starting point is 00:09:02 trying to like run away the entire time. That was like my biggest fear was that that was going to happen and it ended up happening. To me, it honestly didn't seem like a girl fight situation. It was more the way Romeo handled it, which at first he seemed pretty good about it. He said, to her, I'm not going to pursue anything with you. I'm going to go after Jill. And then things wildly changed after 24 hours. Do you think that he used you as a way to get out of anything with Kira? Because it seemed like after 24 hours, he was after Brittany and no longer going after you. I honestly have no idea. Like, I wish I could be in his brain because none of his decisions make any sense to me. He came in saying that he was interested in pursuing me. And
Starting point is 00:09:48 And then, you know, he told Kira that. And so everything tracked up until that point. And then, you know, when they asked, like, you see it in the show, like, when they asked, like, oh, how are you guys doing? I'm like, we're cool. Like, we're just going to chill tonight. It'll be fine. I had no idea he was, nobody, nobody there had any idea that he was going. He wanted to talk to Brittany.
Starting point is 00:10:07 So that was like a complete shock to all of us. And I don't know what was going through his head and why he didn't like talk to me. First, he was like, oh, I was scared. I'm like, okay, well, then that's cowardly. you knew you were going to hurt me. Like, he knew that was obviously going to hurt me, but he did it anyways. So I have no idea what he was thinking. One of my favorite lines this season is Michael A saying something along the lines of,
Starting point is 00:10:31 I'm starting to doubt that Romeo went to Harvard based on his decision making here. That was awesome. I know. I know. Well, speaking of good lines, you have two that really stand out to me. You stood up to yourself so beautiful. to Romeo when you were like, I think I'm a pretty cool person and you're missing out. Am I getting it right? Something along those? Yeah, I was like, I'm a great person. I was like crying.
Starting point is 00:10:57 I was like, I'm a pretty great person and you fucking know that. I know, but I loved it because I love it when people kind of like admit that they like feel good about themselves and that they like know that they deserve something good. Yeah. I also loved when you said that ship has sailed. It's all the way to the Middle East now. I know. That was so good. Thank you. I feel like no one really picked up on that. It was really quick. But yeah, he had tried to talk me a couple times that morning. And I was like, absolutely not. Like, I really cannot do this with you anymore. Love it. How was the fan feedback on you standing up for yourself this week? Yeah, super good. It was really good. Everyone was like, you go, Jill. A lot of people were like, she better not accept his rose. And I'm like, give me a minute. Like, give me a minute. Like, trust me. I'm going to take the rose and do what I want with it. he was cool enough to say this is a rose to either continue this if you want or for you to explore other options which was the perfect thing for him to say another time where he didn't really mess up and yeah what are you supposed to do say deny the rose and then you not stay yeah exactly because i feel like i had spent so much time on that relationship not so much time but like a week in paradise time is like a decent amount of time especially when you have a rose ceremony coming up yeah so it's like i I had wasted all of that week on him and not made any other connections. And then what was I supposed to do? Like there was no other lane that I could do in order to like stay and perhaps like explore something in the future.
Starting point is 00:12:28 So I felt like honestly, I kept calling it like an apology rose. I'm like, oh yeah, Romeo gave me an apology rose because he wanted to like smooth things over, which was nice. I really appreciate it. But I felt like it was right for me to do that, you know? 1,000%. I would never think otherwise. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:52 My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly, and now I'm seriously suspicious. Well, wait a minute, Sam. Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit. Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now, he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone. Now, hold up.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate. Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor, and they're the same age. And it's even more likely that they're cheating. He insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him? Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's boyfriend really cheated with his professor or not?

What would you do if one bad decision forced you to choose? between a maximum security prison or the most brutal boot camp designed to be hell on earth. Unfortunately for Mark Lombardo, this was the choice he faced. He said, you are a number, a New York State number, and we own you.
Starting point is 00:14:30 Shock incarceration, also known as boot camps, are short-term, highly regimented correctional programs that mimic military basic training. These programs aim to provide a shock of prison life, emphasizing strict discipline, physical training, hard labor, and rehabilitation programs. Mark had one chance to complete this program and had no idea of the hell awaiting him the next six months. The first night was so overwhelming, and you don't know who's next to you. And we didn't know what to expect in the morning.
Starting point is 00:15:03 Nobody tells you anything. Listen to shock incarceration on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. My name is Ed. Everyone say hello, Ed. From a very rural background myself My dad is a farmer And my mom is a cousin So like it's not
Starting point is 00:15:20 What do you get when a true crime producer Walks into a comedy club I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke But that really was my reality nine years ago I just normally do straight stand-up But this is a bit different On stage stood a comedian With a story that no one expected to hear
Starting point is 00:15:39 Well 22nd of July 2015 A 23 year old man had killed his family. And then he came to my house. So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? A new podcast called Wisecrack, where stand-up comedy and murder takes center stage.
Starting point is 00:16:03 Available now. Listen to Wisecrack on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Super Secret FestiCole. Podcast Season 4 is here. And we're locked in. That means more juicy cheesement. Terrible love advice.

My theory is that if you need to figure out that the stove is hot, go and touch it. Go and figure it out for yourself. Okay. That's us.
Starting point is 00:16:49 We're in the head. That's us. My name is Curley. And I'm Maya. In each episode, we'll talk about love, friendship, heartbrates, men, and of course, our favorite secrets. Listen to the Super Secret Bestie Club as a part of the My Cultura podcast network available on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. so let's talk about a couple other storylines that are going on you were really close with teddy and then teddy decided to leave she didn't say bye to anyone were you really upset by the fact
Starting point is 00:17:28 that she didn't say bye to anyone or would you have done the same oh no I was really upset that she didn't say bye to anyone um I had talked to her before so like you know we were just like sitting down the steps and I was just like kind of talking to her about what was going to happen and what she was feeling and I remember saying like just come see me before you make a decision like just come see me either before you leave or whatever like we'll figure it out and then and then I didn't see her ever again like it was it was really crazy and I know she stands by that decision I support it completely like if she'd come to me and like do I want to go home I'd be like I totally get it but yeah she just I mean serene was looking around for her we just had no idea what was happening
Starting point is 00:18:07 and yeah I mean she's like a dear friend of mine and I like was really upset that I get to say goodbye to her. But I think she just didn't want us to try to convince her to stay, because like I would have. Yeah. How do you feel about her mindset of leaving just because things didn't work out with the person she intended to be with there, which was Andrew? Yeah. I mean, I think there were a lot of factors that like went into her decision, but she said it herself, she was like, to me, like, paradise, like Andrew is paradise for me. And so I feel like she really like had her heart set on that and she wasn't interested in meeting anybody else like i think she was interested in meeting rodney but she really was like laser focused on like i want to
Starting point is 00:18:48 come here to try things with andrew and since that didn't work out she was probably pretty upset about it and didn't want to hurt andrew and didn't want to like explore other options in front of him perhaps so i i get it um i honestly just don't think that was the right environment for her at all and i like support her decision to leave cheney is a totally different character here in paradise than she was on the show why do you think that is oh i think that she probably saw herself on screen and really didn't like the way that she was portrayed um i also think she probably just did a lot of like self-reflection i mean once she was essentially like canceled and she was vilified and she did make really bad decisions and say horrible things and i like i remember
Starting point is 00:19:36 having a conversation with her before Paradise. I'm like, you did some really awful things and said some really bad things. I cannot defend. But I think if you go to Paradise and you, and you show people like who you really are, you can kind of rewrite this and go on another path. So I think that what we've seen up until this point and hopefully what we will continue to see is like kind of a testament to her like putting in the work and putting in some thought into herself. So I think people should just kind of like, some people love redemption and some people don't think that people deserve it. But I think...
Starting point is 00:20:07 Oh, everybody deserves it. That's ridiculous. But you're right. A lot of people don't think that. A lot of people don't. But, yeah, I mean, I think that what... Like, she really surprised me this season. She really did.
Starting point is 00:20:18 And I'm proud of her, honestly. Yeah, she's doing a good job so far. Well, you gave Cheney some advice. And Jared and I gave you some advice going into it. Was there anything that really stuck with you? I always say that the advice that Jenny McCarthy gave. me before going on the show was the piece that stayed with me and that was basically like go along with it all yeah but don't do anything that you feel is really wrong right so what did
Starting point is 00:20:55 did we give you any um words of wisdom that stuck with you like that no you did um i remember Jared always says just enjoy it just enjoy it because it goes by so fast and like I'm trying to do that now as well but especially when I was there I was trying I mean I was trying to enjoy it God it was like pretty rough there um and then honestly like when I was when I saw you guys you saw how like emotional I was I saw a tweet someone's like Joe Ashley's there just to visit she's not there for free therapy I'm like but I know her it's different like um yeah I think just like kind of enjoying the process and not going in like with a plan like not going in and thinking one thing is going to happen like okay i'm i'm going to go up to this person this person just like
Starting point is 00:21:39 being open the entire time i think that was like the best advice what guy does you want to see there rodney okay i i know it doesn't do you ever have anything with rodney we're not at the same okay i know All right, well, stay tuned for that. All we know is that you're on a date with Jacob in the next episode, so. Yeah. Well, yeah, I'm on date with Jacob in the next couple episodes. Oh, couple episodes.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Well, not a couple episodes, but it's not the next one. Oh, okay, okay, okay. Yeah. All right. And then last question about, like, the cast. Kira, just because I have to bring her up again, she's a doctor. She's a nut. How do you imagine patients?
Starting point is 00:22:29 of Kira responding to the seeing this. Yeah, I don't know. I, so I, I said like, you're a physician. Like, what are you doing? Because I was just like so flabbergasted. And it honestly had nothing to do with like physicians can't have fun or people who are like professional jobs. Like, of course. Yeah. Like I don't want to come across like that either. It's just kind of funny to see like your doctor in that light. Yeah, it definitely is interesting to see. It applies to so many different occupations though on the show and like I know lawyer there's so many lawyers that have been on the show and then they have to like deal with going to the courtroom and it's a little bit strange I know but like Kira is bringing a vibrator into the boom boom room by herself and it's just like
Starting point is 00:23:14 I can't unsee that I know it's got like more power to her like she's really like doing the work to like make sure that like I guess women in that field are respected regardless so yeah I kind of I kind of support it. I'm down. I'm down. Speaking of The Vibrator, you guys found it in Sally's suitcase. Please tell me you thought that was like a planned moment. Of course.
Starting point is 00:23:39 Okay. I would never go through someone's real suitcase. Okay. I would never go through someone's belongings. I think it was just supposed to be kind of like a lighthearted praying. Yeah. I don't know. But it was very obvious to us what it was.
Starting point is 00:23:54 And then to the viewers, obviously, it wasn't so obvious. but that's what I kind of want to get across like guys it is the realest of the real when it comes to reality TV like all of our feelings so real yeah sometimes we will throw a little fun moment in there that's supposed to be tongue and cheek like that moment that was when I didn't get the Cinderella date I went around with a glass of champagne and a Cinderella costume pretending like my friends were like the mice and like the cat from Cinderella date. and I was being so I was trying to be hilarious, but people thought I was being dead serious. I'm like, are you guys crazy? Are you cool? You crazy for thinking that
Starting point is 00:24:39 I'm being serious right now. I'm just having some fun by myself for like the 10th day alone at the mansion. Oh, yeah, I know. That was pretty rough. Everyone, I got like, even my cousin texted me to be like, you're going through someone's suitcase. And I'm like, no.
Starting point is 00:24:55 They could have gotten away. with us believing that you guys were truly going through the suitcase on your own when they found the vibrator and like the extensions. That's great. But the waffle maker made it so obvious. Yeah. And there was also a veil in there too. Oh yeah. And I'm like, come on. Like I did feel like after that I felt really bad. I did. I felt really bad about it because like going through like setting somebody up like that. I'm like, oh God. Yeah. That was a bad look. Yeah. Well, I can't wait to see Sally apparently actually come down those stairs because we do have a little clip of her speaking.
Starting point is 00:25:30 It's in paradise, yeah. And we clarified on the last episode that while Wells' sketch may have been a little exaggerating because I don't think the producers stayed in the trunk for five hours, there's so much truth to that story. Way more truth than exaggeration.
Starting point is 00:25:48 Oh, yeah. Apparently that story is fully true. Like I know the producer and apparently even the trunk bit apparently it's true no not five hours in the trunk there's no way i think it was an suv okay that's what i said i was like there's no way that they've ever agreed right right she stayed in an SUV trunk for five hours four hours apparently i don't know i don't know she's probably on her phone doing work that long anyway all right we're going to take a quick break and then we're
Starting point is 00:26:18 going to play a superlative game with Joe. Bear back. My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly, and now I'm seriously suspicious. Wait a minute, Sam. Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit. Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone. Now hold up, isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age. And it's even more likely that they're cheating. He insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him? Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet.
