So I’ve identified since final 12 months that “Bachelor in Paradise” filming wouldn’t be returning to its regular location in Sayulita, Mexico. The lodge acquired offered to another person and principally it’s been identified it wasn’t going again there. There had been rumors thrown on the market about it being within the Dominican Republic and a coupld different places, however I actually felt they might wish to preserve it on the West Coast and possibly only a totally different location in Mexico. And yesterday, was capable of verify that to be true. This season of BIP will movie on the Costa Sur Resort and Spa in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Filming is gonna be a month sooner than normal since there’s no “Bachelorette” season this 12 months. Normally BIP has filmed for 3 weeks in June, however listening to it will likely be filmed in Could this 12 months. We don’t know another particulars on how the format of the present will change, if in any respect. All we all know is there’s a brand new showrunner who’s by no means labored within the franchise earlier than. So till filming truly occurs, since this franchise isn’t clear about something they do, I extremely doubt we’re going to listen to about any format stuff earlier than it begins manufacturing.
Can’t wait for everybody to listen to tomorrow’s weekly podcast visitor, Lauren O’Brien from Love is Blind season 8. I do know she’s achieved just a few interviews up to now, however I don’t imagine she’s given an extended type interview but. Our interview is about 50 minutes lengthy and I attempt to go so as of her expertise on the present: Pods, Honduras, Minnesota, then what’s been taking place throughout airing. The entire interview is simply devoted to her expertise on the present with Dave because it’s airing earlier than the finale, we don’t discuss any of the opposite {couples} actually, outdoors of Dave’s time within the pods with Molly. Such a superb interview that I can’t wait so that you can hear. Whereas I imagine virtually all of social media is on her aspect within the Dave relationship (effectively, aside from at the very least one unbearable blowhard that known as her sloppy), it was nonetheless nice to listen to her clarify all the pieces from starting to finish. Finale airs on Friday (she’s truly in attendance at one of many weddings), after which the reunion airs on Friday.

Steve,
Haven’t actually stored up with Grant’s season, simply listened to your column. However the double requirements round contestants baffle me. I’m responding to the reader e-mail that claims “day dealer” is code for unemployed.”
Theresa Nist is a day dealer, however as a result of she’s a lady and well-liked, she didn’t get criticized in any respect for it. It was “go lady boss get that bag!” And other people criticized Gerry as a result of they thought he simply needed her cash. So clearly, although it may be skeevy, day buying and selling is a “actual job.”
And but Grant, as a result of he’s a person, man-hating viewers are projecting on him and calling him unemployed? Should you’re gonna criticize Grant for something, criticize him for releasing a cringe single on premiere evening.
Remark: Individuals are at all times gonna discover one thing to hate on. You suppose if Joey was a day dealer it will’ve elicited the identical response? In a phrase – no.
_______________________
I feel Grant has to determine if he desires to do the break up first or the proposal and that’s what he can’t determine about. Bear in mind Jesse’s season?! The winner went first! I don’t suppose he’s actually going to be that torn between the 2.
Remark: Grant’s been fairly clear in all put up present interviews that it’s extra in the way it’s being edited than anything. He’s not saying that particularly, however studying between the strains in his solutions, you’ll be able to kinda inform.

I had a tour of the West Wing on the finish of Obama’s period and one factor I seen is there may be NO WAY individuals didn’t know Clinton was playing around with Monica. It’s an especially previous constructing and the hallways are very slender and rooms are small and never very sound proof.
Remark: I can think about. Nevertheless this present day of social media, if it was round again then, it most likely would’ve been came upon rather a lot sooner.

You talked about Temptation Island lastly coming again this month, however did you see the Valley can be dropping a bunch of (new) episodes?
I do know you had been certainly one of many who tuned in to final season of Vanderpump after Scandoval, then acquired hooked on the Valley…
Will you be watching this season too, or is there an excessive amount of else to maintain up with nowadays?!?
Remark: Sure, will certainly be watching The Valley, however so far as I do know, they haven’t given a launch date for season 2 but. We simply comprehend it’s coming. All we’ve gotten in a mini trailer, however it wasn’t even clips from the season. It was simply solo photographs of all of the characters and I feel we acquired voice overs of issues that had been mentioned through the season. Until I missed one thing.

Hello Steve!
I’ve a query on your subsequent Reader Electronic mail batch! I’m catching up on Grant’s season and seen that they aren’t displaying a blooper or “light-hearted second” on the finish of every episode. I really feel like they’ve achieved that for latest seasons however perhaps I’m fully mistaken and it hasn’t been achieved shortly? I might be dropping my thoughts ?
Anyhow, I at all times seemed ahead to that little section and was disenchanted that it’s been minimize. Any perception into why or would love your ideas on that section. Thanks for all the pieces 🙂
Remark: You’re proper. It’s undoubtedly not being achieved this season, however I can’t bear in mind again to after they stopped doing it or if this was the primary season. I really feel like I bear in mind seeing bloopers on Joey’s season didn’t we?

Hello Steve!
I used to be questioning if you understand the place they did the Rose ceremony for Hometowns, metropolis and the theater? It seemed like Chicago, and it seemed like a theater within the Chicago space however I couldn’t fairly inform.
As at all times, Thanks a lot on your Podcast!!
Remark: They confirmed it was LA. To not point out when Grant had his speak with Joey, they had been saying the rose ceremony was that evening they usually clearly confirmed they had been at a spot in LA. As for the theater, I can’t bear in mind the title of it, however I do know it’s a theater they’ve used earlier than on this present just a few instances for dates.

Hello Steve –
For some purpose, I discovered it humorous that you just and Courtney every locked into your personal pronunciation of “Carolina” on the podcast. I agree together with your pronunciation. I suppose I didn’t discover how she was announcing it, however watching the season, I do know all the ladies have pronounced it “Caro-leena.” So I’m assuming that’s it.
Very pleased to listen to you bought Lauren for this week’s podcast. I really feel like Dave sought to final lengthy on the present and would provide you with some excuse to interrupt it off. I ponder if her pal with advantages tried to sabotage the connection. An experiment I wish to see in a future season could be for the {couples} engaged within the pods to work with a sketch artist earlier than the divulge to see what they envision one another appear to be. It might assist fire up drama and provides viewers some perception on whether or not they really feel bodily attraction. I’m glad that as many interviews as Lauren’s achieved up to now, I don’t suppose she’s had an extended dialog with anybody but. Interview is about 50 minutes lengthy, and I attempted to go so as of her time on the present: Pods, Honduras, Minnesota, after which what’s been taking place throughout airing. Can’t wait for everybody to listen to it.
Cobra Kai – Spoilers observe: Whereas we like a cheerful ending, I really feel that Silver, Sensei Wolf, and Iron Dragon acquired ripped off. I don’t have a Sekai Taikai rule ebook however really feel that 1) Cobra Kai/Tory ought to have been disqualified as her dojo and sensei didn’t present up. 2) Johnny and Miguel shouldn’t be permitted to affix Cobra Kai as they entered as Myagi Do and Miguel competed for Myagi Do. Fairly humorous to see Mr. Myagi return however most likely not a superb factor for actors sooner or later. Man, now you’ve me questioning my very own sanity. Have I given my ideas on the Cobra Kai ending? I believed I did discuss it on the Every day Roundup, however perhaps I haven’t. My brief reply is, I favored it, however there have been a pair “holes” so to talk. Or issues I might’ve favored to have a greater reasoning behind it. Sure, I get it’s a TV present, however I like my TV exhibits to make sense. Like, I knew Tory and Miguel would win, however the best way they constructed up Zara in Barcelona, she was principally a machine. After which she’s main Tory 5-0 after the primary spherical. I would like a superb purpose as to how all of the sudden not solely did Tory come again and win, however completely kicked her ass to the purpose the place she received by like 20 pts and acquired Cobra Kai nearer apart from as a result of her boyfriend informed her he liked her and kissed her in between rounds. That was it? Zara actually couldn’t get some extent scored on her.
As for Johnny, once more, we knew he was gonna win after they introduced due to a tie, the sensei’s must struggle one another. And yeah, that is the place it’s a must to droop disbelief. The primary time we noticed Sensei Wolf, he actually was killing a person along with his naked arms in a cage. And now we anticipate to imagine that he’s gonna lose to somebody who’s virtually 60 and 20 years older than him? I suppose I’m nit selecting. As a result of I nonetheless liked the present.
If measles is in your a part of Texas, I hope you’re vaccinated.
Remark: It’s not close to me so far as I do know and I’m good.

Hello Steve!
Did you discover Matt James simply deactivated on Instagram? I simply seen at the moment.. he had been getting numerous flack and his followers dropped each dang day.. suppose he’ll reactivate? I suppose he’s a tantrum throwing toddler that doesn’t like being known as on his dangerous remedy of Rachael.. He blocked me (which I didn’t find out about till the breakup occurred), so I had no concept.
Hey, do you suppose Rachael Ok will do Bachelor in Paradise? I might significantly doubt it.
Are you stunned Dina’s fam didn’t agree to seem on the hometown date? Did it actually have any impact or was Dina going residence after hometowns even when they confirmed as much as meet him? I recall just a few different households refusing to seem on camera- undoubtedly I do know that Melissa Rycroft’s mother and father opted to not attend.
Thanks for all the hassle you do to spoil the season.. makes it price it!!
Remark: In accordance with Grant, he mentioned her household not being there had nothing to do with why he despatched her residence. Heard that on an interview he did with Further after the WTA taping.
