You are listening to the Daily Roundup here as part of the Reality Sea Podcast. I am your host Reality Sea. Thank you all for tuning in on this Monday. Good show for you today. We are gonna talk a little bit about Bachelor in Paradise. It did start filming on Saturday. Obviously no news has gotten out.
It’s only been filming for two days, but I do have some news regarding casting announcements, a mistake I made on Friday. We’re also gonna talk a little bit more about the Valley Janet’s relationship with Sheena. A little more on Jax and Brittany, and a little more on my party coming up at the end of the month.
We also have a question that I wanna pose to you. Do you know what month this is? No, not my birthday month. Besides that, I’ll answer that question coming up later on in the podcast, but we will get to all that momentarily. This podcast is brought to you by Zocdoc. When was the last time you need to go to the doctor, but you pushed it off?

If you were following either Wells Adams, Hannah Brown, or Jesse Palmer over the weekend, you saw they didn’t give away any spoilers, nor are they going to for the next month. You’re never gonna see them showing anybody at filming.
I mean, maybe they will once the initial cast list comes out, which I expect to probably come out sometime this week. They’ve always done it in the past where they release, well, here’s what they did in the past. For those that don’t remember, because when Bachelor in Paradise used to film in the past, it used to film in the month of June, and at that point, the bachelorette season had already completed filming.
But back in the day when it started airing end of May or beginning of June, there was maybe. One episode of Bachelorette that had aired maybe two before. Some of that bachelorette season’s men had headed on down to Mexico. So a lot of the people there only knew what they saw of them through one or two episodes.
Now, the last couple seasons where the Bachelorette hasn’t started airing were until July. Those bachelorette men that showed up in June to film that season, none of the people on the beach knew what had happened on their show. Outside of looking at spoilers. So they had never seen these people on TV yet.
They had no idea what to expect. But when the announcement used to be made, basically they would introduce who is the original cast. They’d say, here’s who’s gonna be down, or start the season on Paradise. But then because the bachelorette season was airing, they weren’t gonna give away somebody who hadn’t been eliminated from that bachelorette season yet.
So. The day after they were eliminated is when they would say, and so and so will also be joining us in Bachelor in Paradise this summer. Well, they don’t need to do that anymore ’cause there’s no bachelorette season in 2025. So I think we’re gonna get the full original cast coming sometime this week.
Couple things that I wanna say about the cast. Number one on Friday, I was going over Joey’s women who were. I was going over them because I was like, look, Joey’s women aired in 2024. Joey’s season aired from January to March of 2024, but there was no bachelor in Paradise season, obviously last year. So you would think a lot of Joey’s women are gonna be on Paradise.
But when I went down the list, you heard me go down the list on Friday. A lot of ’em are taken now. I mean, they’re in relationships. One thing I wanted to correct though was I said Kelsey Toussant was married. That was my mistake. I was missing Kelsey Toussant up with Tessa Ts, who was on, I believe Zach’s season, the season before.
She was the one that got married with her husband. She came on my podcast. Remember that whole ordeal that she had with the wedding dress? That the wedding dress designer didn’t want to make a dress, didn’t wanna alter her dress. She came on the podcast with her husband. My mistake, I completely just blanked.
When I said that, when I was reading down the list of Joey’s women. I mixed up Kelsey T with Tessa Ts. I even emailed Kelsey t, someone I’ve never spoken to in my life and I said, Hey, I messaged her on Instagram. I said, Hey, if you start getting any emails this weekend, asking when did you get married?
That’s my fault. I apologize. I’m sorry. And she wrote back, thanks no problem. So appreciate Kelsey understanding on that. My mistake. Mixed Kel CT up with Tesa Dukes. But the fact that Kelsey t responded to me, I think we can pretty much cross her off of, batch of Paradise this summer if anyone was thinking that she might be going.
The other thing that I wanna play is last week when I gave you the list of people that I was told would be going to Paradise at some point this season. I said I’m pretty sure on all these people I knew there was an outside chance. I could have been off on one or two, but I knew a majority of those people that I gave, I gave you like 15 people.
I’m pretty sure all of them are there. Well, one of ’em you can cross off that list and that is Rose from grant season and Rose took to TikTok this weekend to. Let everybody know that she’s not going and make a giant ordeal out of something that was pretty small to begin with, but this is what Rose had to say on her TikTok over the weekend
for reality.
Steve, I’m sorry. You got it so wrong. I quit my job ’cause I wanted to not, ’cause I’m going on paradise. I need water.
Okay. Just a couple things that I wanna say about this. Number one, I had no idea, I don’t even know what Rose’s job is. I had never heard anything about her quitting her job or, the reason I posted that she was possible contestant on bachelor Paradise this season was because I heard she wasn’t at her job anymore.
I had no idea about that. That was the first I’ve ever heard in regards to that. So I don’t know why she even brought that up. And secondly, I love how she says I was so wrong. About putting her as one of the contestants. She’s acting like I went over 15 on the 15 names that I put out there, like Rose.
While I apologize that I accidentally put your name out there, it’s not nearly as big of a deal as you think it is to call me out for being quote unquote so wrong for saying that. Rose was gonna be on Bachelor in Paradise this year. But that is not the reason why I said that you were a possible contestant on Paradise.
I had no idea. I don’t even know what you do for a job. So just wanted to say that. Sorry about that, rose for putting you out, putting you out there as a possible contestant, but you’re not. I know her TikTok is playing again. But yeah, she is, she’s obviously not going to be there, but I think all the other names that I mentioned, I, I am pretty sure are going to be there at some point, but.
Then again, I’ve already forgotten all the names that I did mention. I wanted to briefly go over what Jesse and Wells and Hannah put out there this weekend. Like I said, I don’t, I. Maybe once the cast is announced, we’ll get some shots where people are like walking in the background, but it’s not like Jesse and Hannah and Wells are gonna be giving exclusives.
I did talk last week about the fact that they do have four influencers, TikTok influencers that are out in Paradise in Costa Rica that are staying there at the resort and are getting exclusives. Well, you also gotta remember these exclusives are going to be stuff that they are filming in real time. Now this month of May, but it’s not like they’re gonna be able to be posting them until the actual show airs.
Like so-and-so will get eliminated at a rose ceremony and these talkers will be able to, I guess, do an interview with them, but they’re not gonna be able to post that interview until that episode airs, which isn’t gonna be until like July or August. So while the influencers are out there, they are certainly not going to be spoiling anything in in real time.
So just understand that that is not going to be happening. And it’s really no different than, you know, the women Tell All episode because after the Women Tell all, there’s a lot of media Backstage, E Online and Extra and ET and all that stuff, and they do interviews with those women. But those interviews don’t run until.
After the episode airs. So it’s basically the same thing, except they’re, instead of sending media to LA to a tell all taping, they’re sending ’em to Costa Rica to hang out there. And so they have content for when the episode airs and those contestants are eliminated. But yeah, and I’m sure they’re gonna do other things.
Maybe some get ready with mes or something like that, but none of the spoilers are going to be in real time. So while it is something different. It’s more for social media engagement while the show is airing, not pre-show. Last week I was talking about the Valley and I had brought up the fact that I was just hearing for the first time that Janet was previously married, was living in Ohio, moved to LA specifically to try and befriend the Vanderpump rules crew.
’cause she wanted to be on the show and she was giving herself apparently a year to do that. She did. I don’t know the reasoning behind her divorce of her first husband. Maybe it had something to do with the show. Maybe it didn’t. I have no idea. But clearly her goal to move to LA to try and befriend the ba, the Vanderpump Nations crew, I.
Worked because now she has found herself newly married, or not newly, but remarried and on this season of the Valley. After I mentioned that last week, a few of you pointed out that this has been well known within the Valley community and it has been spoken about by others on the Valley. I think Sheena’s even talked about how she became friends with Janet.
I have not heard that podcast, but yeah, apparently this is a thing. This is a, a real thing now for me as an outsider, I just look at it and I’m like, that’s kind of weird. It’s kind of weird to just be a married woman in Ohio, but so obsessed with Vanner pump rules that you move yourself to LA for a year and try and hang out all the places that they hang out so you can befriend them and then you ultimately befriend them and divorce your husband.
Now again, I maybe they had marital problems well before she moved to la. Maybe their marital issues have nothing to do with why she got divorced or maybe their marital issues have nothing to do with the move and her befriending a bunch of people from Vander P Rules. I have no idea, but. This is well known within the Valley community.
I was just speaking about it ’cause I, my kind of head has been buried, and I didn’t know this until I started seeing it pop up on TikTok within the last couple weeks, and I saw it there. I was like, oh, this is news to me. I figured most people who follow the Valley way more in depth and follow Vander Pope rules way more in depth than I do.
Were aware of this, but it was just along the lines of, I just found it a little weird now. I’m not saying she’s not legit friends with these people. Clearly she seems to be, and she’s developed a close, close relationship with them. I just think the whole idea of doing what she did, while it did ultimately work out for her, if that was her goal to move to LA and befriend the Vanner Pump Rules cast, it did work for her.
But, you know, I don’t know from afar she lost a marriage because of it, but again. Can I really be that upset at Janet when she self-admittedly loves Dave and Busters and wants to hold her birthday party there? The answer would be no, because anybody that wants to have a Dave and Buster’s birthday party just hit me up.
I’ll, I’ll show up because I wanna rack up some more tickets for my niece and nephew.
