Been a long time coming to have Rachel Juarez from “Hot Bench” on again to discuss the Echard/Owens case. She wanted to wait until after Clayton’s legal team filed their briefing in response to Laura’s appeal before she weighed in, and that we did yesterday for TWO HOURS. We did it live on my YouTube channel, so you may have already seen it. If you’re not a visual person (and you don’t want to see me in my “Saved by the Bell” Zack Attack t-shirt), then here’s the audio for you instead. But boy are you missing out. I totally forgot I had this t-shirt. So glad I found it. I’m honestly getting close to running out of different shirts to wear. Every video I’ve done since July when I started YouTube (over 45 videos now I believe), I’ve worn a different. We’re getting close though to me having to repeat. Anyway, Rachel was awesome yet again as she describes everything so easily, even the average person who doesn’t follow or understand law can comprehend it. And Rachel will be back next week to discuss the Lively/Baldoni case along with Rachel Lindsay’s divorce settlement. Thanks again to Rachel for coming on.

DAILY ROUNDUP 1/16 TRANSCRIPT?
You are listening to the Daily Roundup here as part of the Reality Steve Podcast. I am your host, Reality Steve. Thank you all for tuning in. A great show for you today. You know why? You probably weren’t expecting this, but you’re getting your episode by episode spoilers on Grant Season, along with your winner of Grant Season.
Sometimes I decide to tease it and say, Hey, coming this week, coming tomorrow. I figured why not just surprise you. You wake up Thursday, probably thinking I had nothing. I haven’t had anything about this season for two months. Ever since the last thing I told you a spoiler wise about this season was that Lydia, not Lydia, Latia and Juliana were the final two.
That was in November. And I’ve said nothing since then. Now I’ve got all your spoilers for you. Most of them. There are some one on ones and group date stuff that I don’t have. I don’t have exact things about, but I’ve got a lot of it and we will get to all that momentarily. So let’s just jump right into it and I’m going to start at the end because I don’t want to make you guys wait 25 to 30 minutes to find out the ending and who Grant chose in the end.
So. I can say that at the end of this, as I mentioned in the open, Latia and Juliana are your final two on this season. And I can tell you that Grant is engaged to Juliana Pascarosa. Again, don’t reveal my sources. I can’t reveal my sources. I’m just as confident in this one as I have been in any other one in the past.
There’s nothing I can do to make you believe me. There’s nothing I can do that can prove it. It is just, here’s the spoiler. And this will be the spoiler all season long. I’m confident in these sources and we go from there. There’s nothing really I can say other than that. But I do know Latia and Juliana were the final two and he ended up choosing Juliana in the end and they are engaged.
Now we work our way backwards. So 25 women, first night. The, I guess there’s two things to talk about the first night. First impression rose. I gave you this way back two months ago. It is Alexi. She might pronounce her name. Alex, Alex, I don’t know. A L E X E. I’m going with Alexi. If it’s, if it’s that, if that’s not how you pronounce it, I apologize, Alexi.
She’s the one that you’ve seen in the promos that comes up with the llama, right? She’s the no drama llama. She ends up getting the first impression rose. The other story from night one is that Zoe McGrady. steals grant on numerous occasions. So we know, especially on night one, the way to ruffle somebody’s feathers and the way to ruffle all the other women’s feathers is if somebody gets to talk to them numerous times, whereas some women don’t get to talk to him at all.
And that’s the case this season. Zoe’s the one that gets under people’s skin because she talks to them on multiple occasions. And some women don’t get to talk to him at all. So your rose ceremony eliminations on night one, by the way, I wanted to have all this ready to go on my website so you can visually see it because verbally telling you this, you’re not going to remember all of it.
I get that. I’m sure people will report it and write it down, but to have it on my website, I’ll have it by Monday. Just give me the weekend. Yesterday was a long day with the two hour live with Rachel Juarez. Then it is, it’s going to be this week’s episode number 426 coming out in a couple hours. So just give me some time on this weekend to write all this and have it Formatted correctly.
It’s all written down in my notes. I just have to format it correctly for my website So your rose ceremony eliminations on night one Christina Smith Janae Squires Kelsey Curtis Kylie Hendricks Niecy Baxter radhika Gupta and Savannah Quinn, so your women heading into episode two I’m just going to go first names here, Alexi, Ali, Joe, Alicia, Bailey, Beverly, Carolina, Chloe, Dina, Ella, Juliana, Latia, Natalie, Parisa, Rebecca, Rose, Serafina, Vicky, and Zoe.
We know all the dates in episode number two. Yeah, we know all the dates in episode number two. And by the way, Instead of writing rose ceremony eliminations on the written version, I just say eliminated this episode because if I put rose ceremony eliminations and somebody happened to go home mid episode or.
Got eliminated before the rose ceremony. People say, but you wrote rose ceremony elimination. You were wrong. It’s just like, good God, people really, you might say, Steve, people will actually correct you on that. Yes. Every single season. So I’m just putting eliminated this episode. And some of them I actually have, there is somebody who self eliminates before rose ceremony, and I actually have that, but I don’t know if I have everybody, that’s the thing.
So episode number two first group date of the season the five on five basketball game I went over this back in the day when I was doing spoilers closer to when this actually happened because this date happened on Literally September 20th, you know, this was four months ago. This date happened to five woman teams Natalie, Zoe, Chloe, Parisa, and Beverly were the purple team.
Allie, Jo, Alicia, Serafina, Vicky, and Juliana were the yellow team. The purple team beat the yellow team’s ass, wasn’t close. Everybody on the purple team was the taller women. I think all five women on the purple team were taller than all five women on the yellow team. So, it was supposed to be one of those deals where the winning team won extra afterparty, but he ended up letting both teams go to the afterparty.
Jesus. That happens basically every season, right? The MVP of the game ended up being Chloe and she got to wear his Letterman’s jacket. So it was during this date, apparently where Zoe continued to rub some people the wrong way. And I’m not using the V word. I’m just not going to use it because some people will take it as you go, girl, you do your thing, you’re not there to make friends.
And then, you know, people just get all bent out of shape. So there’s no reason to use the V word. You just have to watch it and make your own distinction. She interrupts numerous times on the first night and that rubs people the wrong way, the other women, the wrong way. And then I apparently at the basketball date, you know, how, when they have a group date like this, they have a practice beforehand and they do drills or something.
Well, apparently during those drills. Zoe pulls Grant away on the side, can I steal you? And then apparently they’re gone for a really long time and she’s the only woman that did this. Which again, you could say, why didn’t other girls do this? Yes, they could have. And it’s also another one of these things where they probably didn’t let other women do this, and they wanted Zoe to do it.
So Zoe did that. And then even after, on the group date after party, she stole him numerous times again. And this is where. You’ve seen in the previews, Ali, Joe arguing with Zoe as well. So that’s where that’s coming back and forth. And I think you even see Zoe telling Ali, Hey, I just shot, you know, I’m shooting my shot.
So. Again, some people are going to love it. Some people are going to hate it. I don’t care. We see this every season. This is nothing new. The second group date of episode two was seven women and the R and B date. Mario was a judge, the founder of the pussycat dolls Anton, Rebecca Anton, or something like that.
She was the other judge along with Grant Dina, Bailey, Carolina, Rebecca, Ella, Latia, and Rose were the seven women on this date. Carolina was the winner. She had the best singing. Everyone had about 30 seconds to rap or sing a song. Carolina was named the winner. And while she was singing, she ended up giving Grant a kiss.
Now, the other arguments you see in the preview for this season is butting heads between Rose and Carolina. And apparently it started here. This is one of these things where I guess Grant supposedly was talking to Rose while the other women were performing and he told her that he was watching her and after Carolina won Rose told Carolina this so Carolina and by the way if her name’s Carolina, sorry, I apologize We don’t know how these women pronounce their names yet, but Carolina was upset by that Carolina and she Brought it up to grant like, you know You told Rose that you were looking at her while, you know, other people were performing.
So that made Grant confront Rose about, Hey, what, why’d you say this? So obviously this is something where it didn’t sit well with Rose and you’ll see why later the first one on one of the season went to Alexi because the first impression Rose this year went. to Alexi and it was announced that whoever gets the first impression rose gets the first one on one of the season.
You’ve probably seen this in the preview. Grant playing the piano, sitting there singing to a singing to a woman. That’s Alexi. So that’s the first date of the one on one of the season. And in episode two, the people that are eliminated in episode two are Alicia Gupta,
Ella Day Rosario, Rebecca Garrett, and Vicky. Episode number three. This is where I don’t know a lot of the dates. Just yet. What I do know is there’s a small date. So at this point, there’s 14 women left. I think there is a four person a four woman or three. It’s like a three or four woman, small group date that Latiya is on and Latiya wins the group date rose.
And on this date, they went to a dog rescue shelter, but there’s only like three or four women on this date. I don’t know what the group date was, and I’m not sure who got the one on one. In this episode. What also happens this episode is either she was supposed to get the five of the one on one or something along those lines, but Beverly Ortega.
I think it may have started at the basketball game because I was told during the basketball game that Beverly ended up sitting out the second half because she had trouble breathing, I guess. Well, apparently that led to a medical something with Beverly and. She was basically medically removed from the show.
She had to go to the hospital for something. I don’t know what the medical condition was, but Beverly was. Quote unquote medically eliminated during episode three here. And then at the rose ceremony, three more women eliminated were Allie Joe, Bailey Brown, and Chloe Costello.
