00:00:09
Speaker 3: Hey guys, thanks for having back.

00:00:11
Speaker 1: You were just saying you believe that dogs want gifts.

00:00:17
Speaker 3: I do.

00:00:18
Speaker 4: I think animals are much presence. Yeah, Christmas or Honka, whatever you celebrate. But yeah, he basically told me that dogs they get the idea of like gift giving, so it's very important you put a Christmas tree, a present under the Christmas tree from them, so like on Christmas Day or whenever you're opening your gifts, they're part of the ceremony. And yeah, my dog's getting a little bit too excited and starting to open some Christmas presents early.

00:00:46
Speaker 2: It's so interesting though that they see wrapped boxes and they're like, I want to know what's inside.

00:00:51
Speaker 3: I know.

00:00:52
Speaker 4: I mean he was going for something that was like a scented candle if I pell, so maybe he's going off like the smell, but I don't know.

00:01:01
Speaker 2: We've put a gift under the tree that's like to mommy from Bagel.

00:01:06
Speaker 4: Yeah, or from Bagel to like my sister or my mom or whoever. I'll get presents for other people from Bagel.

00:01:13
Speaker 1: My mom does that for our.

00:01:14
Speaker 2: Dog, for Winston.

00:01:16
Speaker 3: That's adorable.

00:01:17
Speaker 2: Get Winston gifts more often.

00:01:19
Speaker 1: I know, I know it should bring We should bring him a gift.

00:01:22
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a good boy, Bagel confirms Winston would like more gifts.

00:01:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're I think I know this, but you're you're in Florida right.

00:01:31
Speaker 4: I'm in LA right now, but my mom's in Florida, and I usually do spend the holidays back home in Florida, but this will be one of the first years that I'm spending it out in LA with my sister, and my Mom's gonna fly out and do a little Christmas here together, just the three of us.

00:01:46
Speaker 1: Are you living in LA? Are you just there visiting your sister.

00:01:48
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've been in LA for probably the last six months permanently. Okay, so I've been living and working out here and in between you know, shows, I can go to ordered to visit, but I really primarily spent most of my time on the West Coast since actually most of all of twenty twenty five. Now.

00:02:08
Speaker 1: Can't believe you love it.

00:02:09
Speaker 3: I love it.

00:02:10
Speaker 4: You know, It's like kind of a homecoming for me because I always wanted to live in LA never had visited, and then after college I applied to some jobs out here and landed like my first job in LA. Thought it was gonna be my dream job. Had a week, moved out how to live with some random roommates online, and I just fell in love. And I worked out here for a couple of years up until the pandemic hit and then my lease was up, and so naturally I was like, Okay, I'll go quarantine in Florida with my family for a couple months, and you know the story goes. It was a lot longer than that, so it took me some time to get back to the West Coast. But I do feel like almost like I'm back home.

00:02:50
Speaker 3: In a way.

00:02:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you think you could are use somebody? Could you ever live in cold weather?

00:02:56
Speaker 4: No?

00:02:56
Speaker 3: I mean I have.

00:02:57
Speaker 4: I did do New York for a couple of years and that was brutal, And then being born in England, like, it's very.

00:03:04
Speaker 3: Very chilly there most of the year, especially in the north.

00:03:07
Speaker 4: But I would prefer not to if I have my choice, I would absolutely prefer Like, Oh, I think a week of snow is great, build a snowman, go skiing, do all the like activities and then yeah, I would love to come back to like a beach and be in a bikini on Christmas Day.

00:03:21
Speaker 3: That's so fine with me.

00:03:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Joe always says, and I do agree, Like leaving Christmas Day or the day after Christmas to go somewhere warm when you are living somewhere cold is a good feeling.

00:03:33
Speaker 4: It is, but I guess it's also like the grass is always greener, right, because like then in return, when you're in Florida, I have so many family members and friends that complain like it's so weird that we don't have snow, and like we'd love to have a cold Christmas Day.

00:03:46
Speaker 3: And it's like you want what you can't have.

00:03:49
Speaker 2: Yes, I do like a chili holiday season, like I like snow.

00:03:52
Speaker 1: I just want to leave. I just want to leave Christmas night. I want to leave Christmas night and then come back in April.

00:03:58
Speaker 4: Yeah, and starting the new year doesn't need to be dark and rainy and cold for like the next couple months. I think the day after Christmas like we should wrap up with all the cold.

00:04:09
Speaker 1: Well it is, I'm like, yeah, and like this is a nice time of year. In New York, but like still, it's like I was walking home yesterday and it was four fifteen, and I'm like, it's it's dark out, Like it's fucking dark out already, and I'm just like, oh yeah.

00:04:25
Speaker 4: That's another thing is like seasonal depression is so real, and I think when I don't get as much sunset sunshine. Maybe it's because I grew up like a lot in Florida where we had that, But something about not getting the sun is like, we'll put me in a funk.

00:04:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I know, I agree. I need I need more sun myself. I'm very pale right now.

00:04:46
Speaker 4: Yeah next to Serena, you're always going to be pale.

00:04:49
Speaker 3: I hate just got that good tan.

00:04:52
Speaker 2: You're never gonna catch up on this mellon in. But last time we chatted with you, you had just enjoyed a lot of sun on batt Or in Paradise and we caught up with you kind of mid season. You couldn't say everything, but we had an awesome chat.

00:05:06
Speaker 3: That's great.

00:05:07
Speaker 2: Let's just touch base quickly on like everything unfolded. You kind of had it out with Cat and we recently have seen posts that have confirmed Kat and Dale have likely broken up. Were you aware of this? What have you heard? Are you still interested in Dale? Where are we at with all of this like love triangle esque situation?

00:05:30
Speaker 3: That's so funny, you know.

00:05:33
Speaker 4: I don't keep up with like what Cat and Dale have been doing post the show, so I don't know about their current relationship status.

00:05:43
Speaker 3: I'm not surprised if they have split up, but.

00:05:46
Speaker 4: I think that's just you know, I'm a I'm a pretty big believer that in time, the truth comes out, everything comes out, so but you know, I'm not one to like champion any breakups, so I wish them both the best if they did decide to go their separate ways. I don't have an interest in Dale anymore, you know. I think it was one thing on the beach in Paradise. Had we had the opportunity to it is something I would have explored. But I think after the entire season, and especially with him and the Cat drama, I just don't think that that the same guy who is going to date Cat is going to be interested in having a serious relationship with me. So, for all intents and purposes, I date because I want a husband, I want to have kids, I want to start a family, and I'm really looking for somebody who is qualified and like also wants that in return. So yeah, I would say I don't look back moving forward. But that's not surprising to hear.

00:06:51
Speaker 1: Are you dating anyone now? Are you currently dating at least?

00:06:55
Speaker 3: No? No, God, no, No, I wish I was.

00:06:58
Speaker 4: I'm just like I said, like I'm I wouldn't say I'm picky. I'm just I don't want to date just to date, Like my time is valuable. I would rather spend my Friday nights on the sofa with my little sister or my friends or bagel. Then you know, going on a first date if it's never going to go somewhere.

00:07:17
Speaker 3: And I think a lot.

00:07:18
Speaker 4: Of people date at this age just because it's fun. Like I have a lot of friends who love to go out on the first date, and they like, they love to have that, like you know, the first match.

00:07:28
Speaker 3: I don't. I don't like that, like I don't like getting to know you take yeh.

00:07:31
Speaker 1: But but how do you know if it's not going to go somewhere, if you don't go on the date.

00:07:35
Speaker 4: And that is the prediction, that's the predicament I'm in because part of me, I'm like, my husband's not going to be at a sports bar at two in the morning on a Thursday, so like, why would I go up? Well, I don't care if I'm going to meet someone there that's not my future husband. But then my sister does argue with me. She's like, you got to put yourself out there to some degree if you want to meet someone.

00:07:54
Speaker 3: So I don't know.

00:07:55
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm open to it. I just really haven't had any matches that have interested me whatsoever. And I think maybe I'm a little jaded from Paradise experience, you know, getting to know someone and thinking that there's someone very different than.

00:08:09
Speaker 3: Who they ended up being.

00:08:11
Speaker 4: That was a little bit of a setback for me in terms of dating. So I don't know if it's the walls or if it's.

00:08:17
Speaker 3: Timing or I don't know, but no, I'm what about Hinge. I am blocked off Hinge. I got banned off Hinge. Can't tell you why. I don't know.

00:08:28
Speaker 4: I think just because I didn't go out on dates with some of the people I matched with, somebody must have reported me. And I emailed Hine and I was like, who reported me? And they're like, we can't. We can't say that, so I don't know. I think it was just like somebody would hurt feelings. And then I was like, I'm not going to beg to be back on Hinge. If I got banned from Hinge, I think that's a sign that, like God's saying, your husband's also not on there.

00:08:48
Speaker 3: So I'm on Riah.

00:08:50
Speaker 4: And yeah, I mean I go out occasionally, but it's tough. All the good ones are like either married at this age or I don't know, not serious enough.

00:09:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean, I mean it is the dating dating world is the wild wild West. But but if you don't put yourself out there, then it's gonna be hard. It's gonna be hard.

00:09:12
Speaker 4: I know I do put myself out there. I'm one who like sides in the DMS. I will like ask the guy out first if I'm interested.

00:09:20
Speaker 3: And honestly, I've seen some.

00:09:22
Speaker 4: Of the guys who I think might be on Taylor Frankie Paul's season, and if I'm right about any of those guys, then maybe that will open a whole different world of possibilities.

00:09:33
Speaker 2: It looks like it's a very good cast.

00:09:36
Speaker 4: It does, and like the older they are okay with having kids, obviously, and I feel like she's going for like a real man, like a cowboy man, and I like that. I haven't had I haven't dated one of those before, so maybe that's maybe that's in my future.

00:09:57
Speaker 2: Would you stante with Sean.

00:09:59
Speaker 3: I don't speak to Sean.

00:10:01
Speaker 2: Oh okay, we're not as speaking terms anymore.

00:10:03
Speaker 4: No, not because of anything like happened that we're not on speaking terms.

00:10:08
Speaker 3: We just don't have a relationship.

00:10:13
Speaker 4: I thought that Sean and I had created a relationship off of what was a friendship first and or foundation, and that was kind of broken and he did a lot of things behind my back that I was unbeknownst to me that really shocked me. And to be honest, moving forward, like if I don't want a boyfriend like that, I don't want any friends like that either. So there's no like bad blood between us. I think we are just very different people looking for different things in friendships and in relationships. So no, we don't have much like crossover things to talk about. He wished me a happy birthday, and every now and then, you know, he'll respond to a story here and there, But I'm not that interested in keeping that relationship open or moving forward.

00:11:00
Speaker 1: I mean, that's honestly pretty pretty common from the show, just like people like they get close in Paradise and then like it just like life happens, right, Like you live in different places. You realize you you don't connect as well as you did in the scenario you were put in, and it's just like okay, yeah, like no bad blood, but we're just not We're just not Yeah, we're just not really close.

00:11:25
Speaker 3: I think there's also.

00:11:27
Speaker 4: It feels like there's almost like a double layer of relationships in Bachelor Nation as well, which I really felt like after Bachelor in Paradise because you get to know these real people and these people who are you know, your your castmates, what are on your co stars on the Bachelor, or the other girls who are dating the same guy as you, like, you get to know them.

00:11:49
Speaker 3: They're real people, they're real relationships.

00:11:51
Speaker 4: And then almost after the show there is like a social media or online relationships between people, and I felt like, I don't know, I think there's a lot of people who go on the show who come off the show and are kind of still living in this like online reality or like care about the stuff that's being said online, and it's like you know me, I would prefer to be like, have a real relationship with someone. I guess it is the best way of saying I don't know how to articulate that in a better way, but yeah, I think there's a lot.

00:12:27
Speaker 3: Of people go on the Batcheler who are really concerned with.

00:12:30
Speaker 4: Their image host airing regardless of what their actual personal relationships are. And to me that I don't really love that. So I think Sean kind of fell into that category.

00:12:44
Speaker 3: A little bit.

00:12:45
Speaker 2: If you could go on any of the other dating reality shows, is there anything you would be interested in doing?

00:12:52
Speaker 3: Oh god, I don't know.

00:12:56
Speaker 4: I think anything that would have a real shot at like leading to a relationship I would really be open to. I would really be open to another around at Paradise if we get another one.

00:13:14
Speaker 1: I was going to ask that because if like I need a redemption art, if there's some of Taylor, Frankie Paul's guys that you are interested in, that would be that would be the perfect match.

00:13:22
Speaker 2: And I feel like they threw you down kind of as like a poster a wild card, like mid season, Like you came in so late, you're the last person. It would be fun to see you down there first.

00:13:32
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like I was so excited for Paradise because I was really excited to like date people and get to know people. Like what we just said, I don't go out a lot, so like for me, it's very rare to be in an environment where you're just solely focusing on that, and I'm being very intentional about that. So I was really excited to have that opportunity and really thought like I would meet a couple of people that might be a match that you.

00:13:53
Speaker 3: Know, might turn into something serious.

00:13:55
Speaker 4: And unfortunately, like just the timing of it, I don't feel like I went to Paradise. I came into two weeks late, and then as soon as the first rose ceremony, we got told it's now a game show and you're competing with the couple who you cruble up with.

00:14:10
Speaker 3: So I don't think I got the dating.

00:14:12
Speaker 2: On a competition show.

00:14:13
Speaker 1: You definitely didn't do our Paradise that we did, Like it was very different.

00:14:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, And I think, you know, I think that you have better odds almost with a reality show like Paradise, where there are multiple people all getting to know each other in what's more of a relaxed environment than like the one on one bachelor type shows and even just you know, statistically like you're more likely to find a match there. So I would be open to doing Paradise again. That was a lot of fun, and I think I've learned a lot about myself and how other people can be on shows like that, So I think I would go into it with probably like a very different mentality than previously.

00:14:53
Speaker 1: Yeah. Nice.

00:14:54
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, speaking of reality shows moving away from dating, we know that you were just on, well you're going to be on You've just recently filmed this HGTV Bachelor Mansion makeover show. What can you tell us about that?

00:15:10
Speaker 3: Yeah?

00:15:10
Speaker 4: That way more exciting than dating shows because one HGTV, Like, that's so exciting.

00:15:17
Speaker 3: I grew up watching it, love it.

00:15:19
Speaker 4: I'm an interior designer by profession, so yeah.

00:15:23
Speaker 1: That is your So that is your job?

00:15:25
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, So you know, going into it, I was like so excited because when it comes to my love life and dating, yeah, I don't really have a clue how I'm going to be my mister perfect or I'm very off track in that department. But when it comes to design and all things home in tier design and renovation, like that is my sweet spot, so I was really excited to be tapped for that and asked to come on the show. I had no idea, you know, what was in store for us or what it was really going to entail. But I know the Bachelor Mansion desperately need did a makeover and a little bit of a facelift, so I knew we would be doing something to the really iconic Bachelor Mansion.

00:16:07
Speaker 3: And I think that's all I can say for now.

00:16:10
Speaker 1: Is what is your interior design like style? Do you have like a certain style that you can explain?

00:16:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I hate that question in a way because my personal opinion, any good interior design is never one style. It's a combination of multiple and I think that's what makes design and interior designers really complex and meaningful and thoughtful. So I wouldn't just say one specific design style would be my taste. And I also say it really just depends on the project and the building. So for the Bachelor Mansion, for example, beautiful Spanish revival home and style that would be doesn't matter.

00:16:53
Speaker 3: If I love modern, clean everything, that would be.

00:16:55
Speaker 4: Crazy to come in and put that inside a home with those types of bones. So oftentimes and why Jill was so useful for the show as well. You do look at the architecture of the building and the facade itself to kind of direct you and indicate what style is going to be mirrored on the inside, and then from there, I like to pull a lot of different things. I'm really loving maximalism right now, I'm really loving Bao House, and I'm.

00:17:23
Speaker 3: Really loving brutalism.

00:17:26
Speaker 4: I would say those are like three for twoenty twenty six that I'm exploring more and trends that are on the forefront.

00:17:33
Speaker 3: Of intire size.

00:17:34
Speaker 1: What is brutalism.

00:17:36
Speaker 4: Brutalism is a type of interior design style that's kind of revival now, but it's essentially design based off function. So things were never meant to be beautiful. They're meant to be functional and built like a machine, and so it was a very scientific approach to interior design, and now people are praising it's kind of like a chemo ash and style house where it's very minimal, a lot of stones, a lot of cold concrete textures.

00:18:06
Speaker 3: Clean lines, and very natural materials.

00:18:13
Speaker 4: So you see a lot of stones, a lot of woods, a lot of marbles.

00:18:17
Speaker 2: Sounds almost contrasting to maximalism a little bit.

00:18:21
Speaker 4: It is, it is, And that's why it's so hard to pick like one interior design style because I think the best designs they are a combination of so many.

00:18:30
Speaker 1: Do you are you like? Are you anti any colors? Like if you were to design your own place, is are you like? Absolutely not? Like there's no orange in my fucking house.

00:18:41
Speaker 3: No way. I'm all for like every single color, time and place. There's a right. I mean part of my.

00:18:47
Speaker 4: Education and experience in design, I went to get my master's for interior design and architecture, and so in that you learned the importance of color theory and more than that, the psychology behind color and important each color kind of plays a role in the house and in the space. And I think that's a big part of my approach to design, is thinking about how it's going to make a person feel when they're in that room, and color massively plays into that. So there's not one color that's off for me, But I would say purple is not my favorite.

00:19:18
Speaker 3: I rarely work with purple.

00:19:20
Speaker 2: Okay, how do you feel like your experience withinter your design helped you in this competition?

00:19:28
Speaker 3: I mean, I was ready for this competition for sure.

00:19:32
Speaker 1: If anything, I wish you're one of the few people that are on the show that have competition experience too.

00:19:38
Speaker 2: What do you mean like having done the.

00:19:39
Speaker 1: Paradise, I mean having done and you really did Paradise the second half of Paradise, so you.

00:19:45
Speaker 2: A lot of people on the show have only ever been on reality dating ship.

00:19:48
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:19:48
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I felt, like I said, like so much more comfortable. It's like, Okay, I'm kind of in control of my own destiny here because I'm good at this. And you know, I didn't know what the outcome of going on The Bachelor or Bachelor in Paradise is going to be.

00:20:01
Speaker 3: You hope that it's an end goal that you get to.

00:20:04
Speaker 4: But with this, I was like I came in, I'm like, why there's no reason why I won't win this show, Like I can do this.

00:20:11
Speaker 3: I feel so confident. I know I'm good at this.

00:20:14
Speaker 4: I was also just excited to like share my ideas with such an iconic project like the Bachelor mansion.

00:20:21
Speaker 3: That's huge. You know, It's like I'm pretty sure it's.

00:20:24
Speaker 4: The most filmed home on television or in reality TV or something.

00:20:28
Speaker 2: Surprised. Yeah, it really stuck to it.

00:20:30
Speaker 4: Yeah, So, I mean it definitely prepared me. It prepared me, But there's also things that you just cannot be ever prepared for when it comes to anything related to you know, Bachelor and of course the HGTV show, there's some like twists and turns in the plot, so you'll have to watch to see how it all unfolds. And so yeah, I was prepared as prepared as I could be going into it.

00:21:03
Speaker 1: Was there anyone that you were happy to see or enjoyed like meeting for the first time get along with?

00:21:11
Speaker 3: Okay, I have like a girl crush on Joan. I love her.

00:21:14
Speaker 2: She does have great style Like she does she always puts the other like really great outfits. I feel like any clips they showed of her, like in her home on her season, it always looked like really well designed exactly.

00:21:25
Speaker 4: She was just such a joy to be around and like really made my HGTV Bachelor renovation experience so much better. Like I couldn't imagine doing it without her.

00:21:36
Speaker 1: As someone who has their masters in interior design and you do it professionally, are you are there? Are there ever? Like hare like? For like I believe that I am like I could be a good I could.

00:21:50
Speaker 2: Has a secret passion for interior design.

00:21:53
Speaker 4: I do.

00:21:53
Speaker 1: I don't know why, Yes I have, Yes I have. That's elect I designed my I designed my old condo that I no longer had have, but I designed it myself.

00:22:02
Speaker 2: And you know what, that photo has been passed around to like your cousin, million other people, that postive photo. Everyone wants their hands on it.

00:22:07
Speaker 1: I know, oh true, true. But like so someone like me who has like little to no experience, right, are you ever like impressed or surprised or by like seeing someone that doesn't know what they're doing design an apartment or a home or are you always like, Okay, this is is amateur This is amateur work most.

00:22:31
Speaker 3: Of the time.

00:22:31
Speaker 4: I would say it does fall into like the amateur category, just because there is there's a science behind design, and like there's principles that make a design a good design, balance, harmony, rhythm, repetition, So there are certain elements that you can categorize and objectively look at and say is this you know, does this fall into like a good design? But I will say, also, you know, some people are naturally born with an eye, and I think you're probably falling into that category show where like you've got an eye for design, that doesn't mean that.

00:23:05
Speaker 1: You can see aren't any well, I didn't do this, I didn't do this, I didn't do this.

00:23:12
Speaker 4: So yeah, I love that you're like very offended by like you can't your name's not on the design right now, like he's not attaching his name to this backdrop. But no, I would say, there are people that do surprise me every now and then, And I think you get really fresh, cool ideas when you are coming from a place of perhaps less analytical background and more of just a creative mind that comes up with cool concepts. So it's a little bit of both, but it's also very it's very difficult to I think what's very difficult it was difficult with the show is when you're working with other people who don't have.

00:23:51
Speaker 3: That background and experience.

00:23:54
Speaker 4: It's you don't want to I never want people to feel like their ideas aren't heard because creative I think ideas, everybody's ideas are equally is important. The execution of it is where I think an interior designer with a professional background and education in it will perhaps excel on Like the execution, you know, right between like the idea and execution.

00:24:17
Speaker 3: Oh for sure.

00:24:18
Speaker 2: I mean if we're on the show, if we're on the show together, you and I, like I might be like, oh, I think this looks really pretty, But also, what do you think? I'm not an interior designer, Like why would we go with my opinion over yours a.

00:24:30
Speaker 3: Situation like that?

00:24:31
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know that's also like that's part of the show and heads definitely, But and that was I thought the most challenging part because obviously coming from a background or I'm like, listen, I get paid to do this. This is like, when the show's done, I'm going back to doing this no offense for other people. But like I it was important that my voice was heard. And that's a really tricky line to like kind of walk, because people do get their feelings hurt and they do take it personally.

00:24:57
Speaker 3: That well, why don't you like that color chair that I picked out?

00:25:00
Speaker 4: And it's not a personal, you know, opinion, it's just this is professionally something my name's now going to be attached to.

00:25:08
Speaker 3: And the same way Joe doesn't want, you.

00:25:09
Speaker 4: Know, to take responsibility for the nome and the leopard sheet in the background. It's like I don't want I don't want my name to be especially as a professional interior designer. I don't want it to be attached to things that are really really poorly.

00:25:23
Speaker 2: Executed, yeah, or just even not your work.

00:25:25
Speaker 3: Or not my work exactly.

00:25:26
Speaker 4: So it's hard when there's a lot of different cooks in the kitchen you got, you got some crazy outcomes.

00:25:34
Speaker 1: Would you ever work like that in the outside world? Like do you have your own company or are you do you work for a company? Like how does that?

00:25:41
Speaker 3: I do?

00:25:42
Speaker 4: I have my own company, but you seldom work on your own in any interior design project or architecture project, from the contractors to subcontractors, multiple designers, you have specialists depending on you know, the stones you're using, kitchen in bath tile. So I'm used to working with a lot of different people. I think the biggest thing is a lot of them who come from that industry, they don't take it personally. Like we understand if somebody told me, like I picked a floor and they're like, absolutely not, I wouldn't.

00:26:14
Speaker 3: It wouldn't let like that.

00:26:16
Speaker 4: I wouldn't think about that ever again, because it's just you just can't be like that in this industry, and I think for a lot of people who haven't had that that experiences that I have, like it was a little bit of a shock to them to hear like no, or we shouldn't be doing this, or you know, their ideas not necessarily like celebrated.

00:26:37
Speaker 3: So I'm used to working with a lot of different personalities.

00:26:41
Speaker 4: The difference is I'm not used to it really a lot of reality TV personalities.

00:26:46
Speaker 1: I mean that checks out and it it kind of goes in line with just like every other reality competition show, like you always have, you have certain people or players on there that play the game, you know it as it's a game. There's other people that go in there and they take everything you say personally, and that's essentially what makes a good reality TV show exactly.

00:27:09
Speaker 4: And we have I will say, like the cast for this HGTV show coming up is really such an array of Bachelor Nation alums from decades and like old, young, new, you know, professionals, novice. There's a really it's a good hodgepodge of people, and I think that also makes for really interesting design and even better TV.

00:27:37
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're looking forward to it, so, yeah, we're excited to watch and yeah, I think I think that's it. Alicia, thank you so much for taking the time. It was a pleasure talking to you.
