Speaker 3You're in Texas too long.
You lost everything.
Speaker 1Bless your little hearts?
Speaker 4Isn't blessed your little heart?
Speaker 1Okay, so wait, so what's day?
What was dating like before you went on the show.
Speaker 5It was really challenging because I live in a very you know, bedroom community.
Everyone's coupled.
Yeah no, I mean if you I live like an hour and a half from San Francisco.
So if you did find how's that wine?
Speaker 3Good?
Speaker 5Let let's let's let's all have a drink here.
I love that we're having a drink of wine.
Speaker 3That's great.
Speaker 5It's only one o'clock in California, but I'm sure it's later wherever your lates are.
Speaker 1Uh, you know what time is just age is just a number and time is just number.
Robins That No, it was no dating.
Speaker 5I mean I would try and then they would be, you know, one hundred miles away, and I'm like, Okay, that's not going to work because I live in a very established bedroom community.
A lot of people are have second homes and it's just a lovely community, but it's not a dating community.
Speaker 1Well, how did you get on the show?
Speaker 4That what made you go on the show.
Speaker 5So it's interesting because I have always loved vachclination, and I watched Golden and I was obsessed.
Oh my goodness, late days.
Speaker 2Ah, you should have reached that to us.
Speaker 5I loved it.
I literally listen.
I have a tape every I come home from work and I'd sit with my whatever I was eating, and I would just watch.
I could repeat what you said.
I watch.
I loved it, and I thought to myself, you know what, it was October and I thought, I'm going to do it.
I'm going to just and I mean, I have my two kids, which is great.
I love my chiln to death.
I'm grandson and go.
Speaker 1To the law.
Speaker 5But I don't have that person.
I want that person.
I want to tell them what I did at night.
I want to tell them what I I want to tell them what I didn't do.
I want to tell them my exercise routine.
I don't have anybody.
I have nobody.
Speaker 1Yeah no, we didn't.
Speaker 3Either for the longest time.
Speaker 1Well, excuse me, I still don't, Susan does.
Speaker 5But women stop bragging.
Stop it.
Speaker 1So wait, I don't know how old your kids are, but how did they adjust to you going on the show.
Speaker 2They will did you just apply?
Speaker 5How did you he s doockingly.
I mean, I got all the stories of how women get on this show, and I was like, knew no one, knew no one and knew nothing.
Let's just go for one oh one.
Speaker 1Just an application, right, this one oh one?
Speaker 5Girlfriend Saba, And I'm not tech savvy, so nine times I deleted everything and redid it and got another glass of wine.
I went through bottles of wine to get this application.
Speaker 1And what did your kids say?
How old are your kids?
Speaker 5By the way, so I have a twenty seven and twenty nine?
Okay, And when my daughter and son were very excited, they were a little concerned, like, mom, please don't kiss him, don't like, don't like.
I mean really, I'm like, and Lindsay might okay, well Lindsay and Nathan Lindsay, my girl, it's like, oh my god, Like when I found out, We're like jumping up and down.
Oh my god, I can't believe it.
Speaker 3I can't believe in.
Speaker 5Nanna's like, oh okay.
Speaker 3I have to interrupt for one second.
God, what I'm seeing right now within the last what is it, two or three minutes now is not what I saw an episode one or two.
Speaker 2Yet it's hard what happened.
Speaker 5I was didn't know.
Speaker 1You gotta be you, Susan.
You said exactly what I was thinking.
I was waiting for Robin to finish.
And Robin, I'm gonna tell you, finding love, whether it's on television, whether it's in your backyard, whether it's at a winery, you've got to be you because if the guy is gonna fall in love with you and you're gonna fall in love with him, you both have to be who you are.
Speaker 4Otherwise it's was it nerves?
Speaker 5Probably no.
I think what I did was I was I was looking at the global structure here right, I'm looking at like how does this all work?
Which is fine in my career, but and it's.
Speaker 3Just gonna say, it's not the vineyard.
Speaker 2You're looking at situation like this.
Speaker 5You have seconds, you have minutes.
Speaker 1So how was it getting out of the limo?
Let's start with that.
Speaker 5I cannot tell you.
I mean, you know, ladies, you did this.
So the mouss energy, angst, anxiety, rehearsal, all that stuff.
I get a limo.
There's this gorgeous women in the limit all oh my goodness, gracious, and I'm just trying to rehearse my lines looking on it one.
I want to get to him, don't want to trip, give him my wine because I'm the one lady right, Please don't fall, don't fall same thing, same him as nineteen different cobblet stones.
Speaker 4I can't fall, right.
Speaker 5So I get there, and personally he's adorable.
He's just he's my type.
I mean, physically, just a lot.
Speaker 1Let's get down to work.
Speaker 4Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Speaker 1When you laid eyes on him, what was your first thought?
Speaker 5So much NiFe.
I mean, he's just like so it's hard to find.
It's hard to find anyone, especially at this stage in life when we're all you know, we've all eclipsed, we all changed our body ties for fragers.
He is totally my type.
So I was like, oh, yeah, this is gonna be good.
So I walked out and I was very excited, very excited.
And so that's the answer.
I was excited.
I couldn't wait to see him.
He's so welcoming, he was so kind, he was so he was just he made you feel at easier.
I took everyone's hand.
It was so nice.
And then I walked into the mansion and I literally exploited.
I let out a scream like, we're here, Okay, the last six months of anxiety?
Speaker 1How did you prepare?
Speaker 3Were you out looking at it clothes?
Speaker 1Like what do I wear?
Speaker 5How?
I'm telling you every single thing I took out of my suitcase had a time on.
Speaker 4Oh hello, Susan.
Speaker 5I put lots of friends and they're like, oh yeah, you can't wait that a camera that I'm like, I can't do this, and I'm like a really busy professional woman, so for me to take hours of time.
Speaker 1Listen, I am not a busy professional woman and I hate shopping.
Speaker 4So I'm right that way there.
Speaker 5Okay, So I want to be like Bewitched or like I dream a genie.
Speaker 4Like really, I just want someone to.
Speaker 5She blinked as.
Speaker 3Well.
Was there any woman or maybe a few of them that you gravitated too?
Speaker 5Okay?
So we walk you guys know this.
I love talking about this.
So you walk in, of course, this big mansion and you're there and I literally really sat next to Cindy what are the chances?
And this gorgeous blue gown, I mean, her gown was just I was like, I have a woman who made it.
I'mting gowns made from this woman.
And we just sat and talked for one time.
There was a lot of chatter, as you will know, and at like four th in the morning, they time you don't white tasting.
I'm like, I never want to tasted it.
Fourth thing the money, but I'm up for it.
I'm up for it, So we want to taste it, and I Cindy and then of course my roommates for it.
You know, you align with people that you spend time with.
Speaker 1Who was in your room?
Speaker 2What room were you in?
Speaker 5I was in the smallest room, the room that had no closets, we called the two step room.
Two steps to Carrol's room, two steps in the bathroom, two steps to Robinson.
So is Jerry Amy Carroll.
And then Cindy was our mascot.
She didn't belong to us, and then she belonged to us for a long She's just ours now we've got.
Speaker 1Isn't it funny?
How quickly or are you telling me?
I mean, in our season we forged friendships so quickly, and Susan and I both knew that Gary wasn't a nice guy, but not our guy.
And I don't know how that was for you.
Did you feel like mel could be your guy or were you were involved in the friendships.
Speaker 5You know what, there are so many elements.
We have a lot of history, a lot of backstory which you might or might not be familiar with.
But we have a lot of commonalities on our divorce.
He worked for Marylynch for a few years.
I mean, we have a lot.
We're both in California, both professional, we both we have kids.
We adore kids.
Both our kids are professionals athletes.
He's kids are in baseball.
So I had such high hopes.
Speaker 1I think I think Susan, because Susan, I think what Robin is telling us that she can't admit to is she's engaged to.
Speaker 5But you have to watch every episode before you Oh we are, we are.
Speaker 1But I'm just saying you sound like somebody it great connection, all right.
Speaker 2I gotta fast forward to the night that we were there.
Speaker 1This episode I.
Speaker 5Forgot you guys.
Wasn't that fun when they said so we all were into the door, open the door, like we exploded.
You guys.
I mean not that everyone's not my favorite, but you were my favorite.
And I want to say that the chosen children here.
Speaker 1Well, can I tell you we were so exciting, excited, We were so excited coming in and they were as Susan, I pulled up and you know, they had us waiting to come in.
It would take I'm telling they were taking some photos and somebody saying to me, Kathy, back up, back because we're trying to film something, back or photograph or whatever.
Speaker 4Back up.
Speaker 1We have our hands, all our gift bags for you, all which which we'll get to.
And then we uh, they said, back up, and I took one step too far and literally fell into the bushes, legs up.
Could not stop laughing.
Good just it was just like I don't know if you saw me on Paradise on the camping trip.
Speaker 4When I went to fell it was exactly the same thing.
Could not stop laughing.
Speaker 3So we got to get our composure together, get the bags back together, get to the door, Get to the door.
Speaker 1It was so exciting for us to meet you guys and see the excitement around your guys journey to find love and the friendships.
I mean, first Susan than me just coming home again, you know, and that's why we love Yeah.
Speaker 4Yeah, I met you.
Speaker 5Was like when we saw you were so excited because we had no idea.
They were like okay, like someone's at the door, like, you know, you know nothing, you know nothing.
It's it's it's it's it's a land of nothing.
Speaker 3Was it just quiet time?
Speaker 1Let's be clear, we came to the slumber party.
For anyone who isn't up on this or has missed an episode.
He was on a one on one.
Mel was on a one on one with Debbie and you know, let's be honest here.
When the guy the lead is on a date with someone, you can say anything you want.
The rest of us are sitting around going, yeah, I hope having a good time.
Speaker 5Not yeah, I hope not, I hope they.
Speaker 1So, okay, So we want to talk about the the roast Oh my god, the roastwood Jared Frey, what was your expa?
Speaker 4I love you?
Upset?
Speaker 5Okay, So I don't know if you sant to say, but I'll tell you something.
This was my okay, you know what you think about like you got ladies went too this process.
So you know, this honestly was my biggest fear.
And I don't have a lot of fears in life, but this is a fear because it was a spot that a performance which I like to perform, but I need to be prepared right.
It was like the cheer winning you want, you have forty five minutes to get Oh, we know, and you know, and you're on the bus and it'll tell you a thing and you get here and you're like, good old embassador roast.
I'm like, are you kid, No, it'll not be that'll not.
So it was hard for me.
Speaker 1But the way it was hard, you did a great job.
But I want to know because I'm going to be honest here.
I I'm a I'm like you, Robin.
I'm very outgoing, I'm very gregarious.
But I did not really like the group dates because I'm not Even though I'm outgoing, I wasn't going to fight to get in his face.
Speaker 4What was your feeling on the group dates?
Tell me how you felt?
Speaker 5So okay?
So I didn't, let's see asad a question.
I realized that my level of expertise in roasting someone was going to be a little bit more challenging and I didn't have that knowledge base.
So I actually liked the group dates to the point that we were a group and we competed together, but we weren't competing together at that stage.
We were competing visually.
Yeah, And it was definitely more of and I remember thinking to myself, Okay, I really got to kill it here, because obviously everybody wants the one on one, they want the after So it was unlike the cheerleading, which we were a team.
We didn't have that, so it was it was harder.
And I think that's one of the elements.
By the way, I wore your favorite air rings.
I wore your your favorite airrings.
Speaker 1So so so to your point, it was individual and Nicole wins the one on one date.
Speaker 2How did you feel about your face expression?
Speaker 3Because I want to note did you feel like Terry and Cindy about the pull activity and the cold being so forward and sucking his tongue out of his mouth constantly?
Then she wins.
What were your thoughts?
Speaker 5I do think a lot of us felt, and not only speaking myself, but it was kind of a common scene.
Speaker 2We could tell that she won for that.
Speaker 5So what I think happened in life, we all did our best and we literally came out of our comfort zones.
I mean, you know you later see what you did.
It was not easy comfortable.
You do things that are not in your wheelhouse and the things that are going to be challenging for you.
We all rose to the occasion.
We get it.
If you look at some of the actual skits, the actual skits, there were some phenomenal skits.
Not that Nicholes was not great, but was the best.
Maybe it was the best from out.
Speaker 1Or maybe meant to think of mister Friedman there, or maybe maybe Mel, let's just cut it down to what it is.
Maybe Mel looked at Nicole and thought, you know what, I like the way she kisses me, and now I'm gonna have a one on one to see if it's real.
I mean, that is that's possible.
Speaker 5But you know what, honestly, I think that's valuable because this man has to decide retweet unbelievable women like we're phnomenal, you are crazy, great women, so I think, and people would be like, oh, she's got one on one like but maybe that's good because then he can decide, well, that's is my person, Oh that's.
Speaker 1Not my right.
Did you exactly, Robin, did you mind him making out with her in the pool, or to be grammatically correct, did you mind her making out with him for the pool, or as Cindy said, did you mind her climbing him like.
Speaker 3The line I think the priceless statement.
Speaker 5So here's where I think everybody approaches love differently.
This is not how I approach a lot.
Speaker 1This is not what I do.
Speaker 5This would not be my wheelhouse.
So right, everybody does it differently.
That would not be anything I would ever be comfortable with me.
Speaker 1Okay, fair enough.
Speaker 3Did you happen to say anything to Nicole about her actions?
Speaker 5We did have a cute conversations after that, and she was like, no, you know.
But here's the bottom line.
I think I've thought about this a lot.
I think that everyone uses they lead with what they have, Yes, like I lead with different things that Nicole leads with.
Speaker 4Yes, wait, you tell me Nicole has good lips?
What do you say, would really greatly?
Speaker 1Left?
Speaker 5Really good?
You know?
Speaker 4No, you're right, I lead with humor.
I think that's really wise.
Speaker 5I meanelligently with a lot of things.
Speaker 4I don't lead Robert, what you lead with is a good bottle of wine.
Speaker 5Oh maybe you don't even know.
Speaker 1Okay, I want to know.
So nine left, how did you feel, like, how did it feel for you to see so many of those great women go and and were you shocked by any of the eliminations it was.
Speaker 5So sad because the mind Terry left, Terry left, Amy left my roommate, and I was just like, I was so grateful, thank you Lord, because I know, if you look at the dynamics of our relations the time Mu's there, there's so much there.
I mean, there's so many things.
So I was like, okay, And when I got to the nine, I came downstairs that morning, I'm like, I was like, hooting howering, we're in single digits.
Were good because that's.
Speaker 3A big deal, right, It is a big deal.
It is so it gets harder each week too, And it gets harder each week because you know, you got to be packed and ready to say goodbye and we don't know what's going to happen.
And I feel badly that one of the things I've always said to to everyone in Bachelor, when you do these shows, couldn't especially for the seniors, the group dates be a little smaller and more intimate, that you can have conversation and get to know someone rather than ten people.
He you know, just doing just doing this.
Speaker 5He's like, oh, okay, I have some guy.
Okay, Okay, you live in Austin, Okay.
Speaker 2I mean, and you got to try to remember.
Speaker 1Well, here's the thing.
If you're really smart, you find a way.
And I wasn't good at it, but but I think you find a way to make that connection with him that he wants to know more.
Speaker 5Yes, well yes, Now, looking at the first episode and everything, I realized people dug very deep.
So I came out with the bottle line.
And if you look at the first episode, there are people that really dug deep and said, okay, but what do you want?
How am my kids?
And what's your life look like?
And what do you want?
I'm like, so what's for?
Speaker 1I had of the line you like, but you know what, but that's who you are, that's you're there, and.
Speaker 5You're it's like but it's kind of get deep and you and you like, do you know that you did this journey?
It stands, it's minutes, it's this, it's a snap.
Speaker 3See So at this point in time after that that you made this, what were your feelings like towards him at that point, Like you just couldn't wait to have more time with you?
Speaker 5Okay, So I really started getting in trench.
Honestly, everyone was so gready to know him, and I'm like, okay, and I don't know if I don't know what happened, but I decided that so I need to develop my feminine side and decided send me my My, my flirtation friend, because I wrote.
Speaker 2That in my you were a little flirty.
Speaker 1I saw the flirty.
Hey wait wait, wait, hur wait, Robin, you wait, I see you, you know, flipping your hair there.
I'm a detective and I need this is the court of the justice, ext and I need how many women there had extensions?
Do you know?
Speaker 5I don't know.
Speaker 4I told you how many did.
Speaker 5I can't count the number?
Speaker 1But there were ghosts and I was right.
I told you, miss hairdresser.
I told you, I said, there's I know.
Speaker 3Peg didn't have any.
Speaker 5Peg did not have any.
Speaker 1I don't, Harry, I don't have any.
Speaker 3Terry didn't have any.
Speaker 5No, I mean they were there were a lot, because I mean it's I mean, this is my lom here.
This is long for a sixty three year old one right like, it's just this is all that.
Speaker 4No, stop right there?
Your hair is beautiful.
Speaker 1We do you ever say to someone, Robin, oh, your hair is beautiful and lovely for a twenty three year old.
We never say that.
Don't say oh my hair is thick and long.
Thank you.
Speaker 4Peo is just.
Speaker 3And it's like about when people when you wear something, people say, oh, you could pull that off.
Speaker 5Because you're hell.
Does that mean okay, I can strike that strike?
Thank you, strike lady, get the strike man and.
Speaker 1Susan for you.
If a guy says to me you can pull that off, he means something else.
Speaker 4All right.
Speaker 5Yeah, But the answer is I do understand people that have you know, everybody has their thing.
I mean like everybody just whatever they do.
Speaker 1All right.
So, Robin, we got to ask you.
You know, we've we've bulleted you with questions.
Speaker 5Here, yes you have, okay, and take a sip.
Speaker 1Stop a hey, sorry for you.
Speaker 4We got to stay in French for Susan for her guy.
Speaker 5Oh my god, I want to hear about that man, Robin.
Speaker 1We've asked you tons of questions.
You got anything you want to ask us?
Speaker 5I want to know so many things about your ways.
First, so how was bachelor and parties?
Speaker 1Oh my god, I can answer this in like thirty seconds.
I had the time of my life.
And I'll tell you why.
I knew I'm great friends with Keith.
I knew there was no love connection I loved being with those young and I felt like they wanted us there, They wanted our wisdom, our advice, And I mean, how much fun is it when someone cooking meal screen you don't have to make your own bed.
There you go thirty seconds.
Speaker 4Loved it?
Speaker 5Okay, So let me ask you another questions.
So now you're off the show, and now you have a whole world ahead of you.
Speaker 1Yeah, how does that look?
Speaker 5Because everyone's like this is going to change your world?
What does that look like?
Speaker 1I can for me?
Speaker 4My world has.
Speaker 1I've gotten to do so many wonderful things through Bachelor and in this podcast is right at the top of the heap.
And I'm so grateful for every experience.
But I will tell you, Robin, I am the same woman I was before I went on the show in that I love my family.
I go to California and I do some fun things.
I come back and vacuum my rugs.
You know, I'm I'm I am grateful for every experience I've had, But I'm just like you.
I'm looking for that person to wake up next to and say I'm so glad I found you.
So I'm not different from you or anyone else.
Speaker 3But What I think they mean, Robin when they say this to you, is you're going to be more recognized.
Everywhere you go, people are going to know who you are.
And you're stopped and Kathy and ized message coming off the show is it's never too late.
It's never too late to find love.
It's never too late.
The world is full of opportunities.
It's not over at sixty.
Speaker 2It might be the last chapter, but it's the best chapter.
Speaker 3And we're both hoping.
Speaker 1So we've got that carved in stone.
It is our last chapter.
It's going to be my and is my best chapter.
I am grateful for every wonderful experience.
Speaker 5So I focus on women.
So since I've been divorced, I focused on women.
So I'm a big wealth advisor, you know whatever, Finyard wealth advisor.
Speaker 1And I really I have to interrupt you can you make my ten million into one hundred million?
Speaker 4And oh, let's give it a month?
Speaker 5How many years?
Speaker 4I said a month?
A month, Robin, a month?
Speaker 5But you got ten million.
That's a pretty good start.
Speaker 2And you have been recognized.
Speaker 3Have you been recognized yet?
Speaker 5Like, well, that's the first of you later so I now she goes on without makeup, I.
Speaker 2Mean you liked.
Yeah, yes, you got to see the pictures of me they take.
Speaker 3Can we do a cell failm in Walmart at nine o'clock at night in sweatpants, my hair stuck up in there.
I don't care.
Speaker 5You don't care for I don't know.
I have a new platform.
And one of the things I will tell you in ending this is I I did a tremendous amount of counseling when I was there, so our room was matter of fact, Cindy worked by me.
So Robers Mama's doing counseling again.
I counseled everybody.
I sat with all the young people, and I'm like this, So I did finance.
I mean, whine is a great fun experience and we all love when talking about it.
But what we're the wheelhouse on my life is is just helping you financially.
Okay, that's for And now since I've been divorced, I really focus on women because I know that women do not have normally don't have the wherewithal or the impetus or the knowledge or just the theory to go.
They leave it to someone else.
So when I sat with all the people, and I did a lot of counseling.
So I left this with really even more knowing that my gift to life is to help people.
You're out where they're going, and I just want to give knowledge right now.
That's why I asked you what your platform was.
Speaker 1It's be more with me than error.
Okay, So Robin, you and I are going to go on the road together because I will tell you, I am a smart girl, and I thought I knew about all our finances and all that, and when my husband died suddenly, I very quickly realized no, I didn't know.
And so one of the things that I that I've talked about is women needing to understand to be more financially literate.
So, yay, you you need to do more of that.
I'll go on the road with you and talk about it.
But the other thing that Susan and I are platform for everyone listening is.
Speaker 4Get up.
Speaker 1Life does not come to your front door.
Get out there, live.
You have one life to live, enjoy it, make things happen.
You are the master of your own destiny.
And we love the fact that people will come up to us and say, you've given me hope, You've given me the you've inspired me to get up and live in the world.
Speaker 4Yeah, so changed.
Speaker 5And I'll wrap that up by saying two things.
I've run a financial literacy class for people in high schools.
Yes, high school please please take me on there with you.
This is all I want to do in life, So finders of literacy.
People know you learned nine percent of everything you do by your parents.
Yes, I work with the community with a lot of different you know, levels of education and knowledge and wealth.
So that's what they're gonna do.
The other thing I do.
Always realized when I was on the show and I'd say it and I won here.
But when I was on the show and you asked me about my roast at the end of it, I said, and this is what my platform was.
I started realizing why I was on the show.
Initially, all the compts that I did was you just except what we said.
My dear, you need to encourage people that it's never too late.
It's never too old, you never too young.
You don't matter what you look into.
Speaker 4Do it, just do it.
Speaker 1Do it because none of us want I should speak for myself, but I think I speak for many of us.
We don't want to be you know, one day from leaving this earth with regrets of I wish I had tried this.
I wish I had done that.
The worst that can happen is you fail.
And you know what, we are old enough to know if you fail, So what you pick yourself back up and you put a smile on your face and you give it another try.
Speaker 4And and that is my biggest message.
And Susan your YouTube.
Speaker 3Absolutely Robin, I want to ask you, what did you learn about yourself coming off the show?
Speaker 5I need to do my comment, sorry, I need to know the fact that it's okay to.
Speaker 3Be vulnerable, it's okay to not be to be in charge, it's okay to let them lead once in a while.
Speaker 1Let that happen.
Speaker 5That was my biggest issue with the roast.
I'm like, well, I know I can do.
I know every print.
It's okay.
And that's the takeaway.
It's okay.
Speaker 3I have I have one more question, and I promise I'll stop after after seeing us on our show compared to all the women on your show, what what do you think was different?
If any a.
Speaker 5Watch, it was a lot different.
So I do think they tapped down the age a lot.
I think they tapped up age a lot, and I think that they look different.
Yeah, you know, I really think that they really had long hair.
Everybody had long hair.
Everybody was very I mean fit, but you guys are fit.
I'm just saying, you know, they they really worked on aesthetics that was different than your show.
I think that, and I do.
I mean I watched your I mean you ladies.
You know, Sarah, I can repeat the things you said.
That's some many times I.
Speaker 1Watch your show, Rob.
Speaker 4We did what to Do, we were Robin.
Speaker 5It was great.
But I do think that's it.
And I also think that they're trying.
I also think that people came in with different agendas.
I yes, you think that.
Speaker 1I think whoa, whoa, whoa?
Give us the top three agendas.
Speaker 5I'm not like, well, the kitchen talk, you know, the kitchen talk is business, you know, finding a man, financial security.
I mean, I don't know exactly who, but I think you all, I'm just as a broad generalization, you all came in as just finding true love with the pure heart.
I came in with that.
I don't I don't mean anyone to do anything.
I just wanted to find that person.
I can tell guess what happened yesterday, right.
I don't think I don't think that was purity in our cast.
I don't think that's not a problem.
Was that a problem for you guys?
I think that the I think that it was illuminated m I think it was Lumina.
Speaker 3We've spoken about, Okay, did Amy really do all the ditches?
Speaker 5I love An, She's my bird.
I can't never say that I love Amy.
She's the best that a lot of people.
I mean, I think that people came in like and you know, I mean the Bachelor she's been on forever, thirty years ago, was not like it's fake.
People wanted to be movie star.
I don't know like social media, you know, I don't know this stuff.
Speaker 2Social We didn't know anything.
Speaker 1Yeah, Susan, we got to say when we came on the show, and we can speak honestly.
I think we can speak for pretty much our entire cast.
Yes, I did not know what a brand, deal and influencer.
I didn't know what any of that was.
Susan and I came on with pure.
I am I speaking for both of us.
We wanted to find love.
I want to find the man who wants to wake up next to me every morning and say, how long with the show.
Speaker 5And I think it's this.
I do think as it as it eclipses things, challenge get challenged, and it does g beat's I do think.
And they're gorgeous.
I'm not saying it's and I'm not sure they I'm not not saying they wouldn't want love.
But I don't think it's completely always the paramount, like I came with an open heart.
I want to find low.
Yeah, find the man I want so all.
I think that's the clipsing though, like it's that's what happens.
Speaker 3I'm coming to Wine Country, girlfriend.
Speaker 1Get you go.
No, we're coming to see you.

Speaker 5I just want to tell you that you're an inspiration.
I just want to tell you that you were the first people out of the gate.
It was a very hard thing to do.
You have really illuminated just what life could be like in this stage of our lives trying to find love, and it's it was really a uh it's well, first, there was an honor to meet you when you guys came into the mansion.
I mean, I cannot tell you matter.
Speaker 3I were just as excited.
