You are listening to the Daily Roundup here as part of the Reality Sea podcast. I am your host reality. Steve, thank you all for tuning in on this Friday. Good show for you today. A little bit to go over about Big Brothers Eviction episode last night, the Golden Bachelor. Are they struggling to get an audience out to their first audience date of the season happening today?
I’ll tell you where it’s happening, what it’s gonna be a part of, and why they might be struggling to get an audience out there. I went and saw Fantastic Four yesterday, my spoiler free review along with. A question that was posed to me by my 18-year-old nephew that I thought was actually good enough to include on my podcast today.
And boy, talk about celebrity deaths of the week. Another one yesterday, Hulk Hogan. And you know me, huge wrestling fan. I’ve been watching wrestling since I was sixth grader. We’ll talk about all that coming up. So let’s get started. I almost screwed it up there almost, but not let’s get going. Big Brother last night, and I can’t say I’m all too surprised once Amy did not win BB Blockbuster and take herself off the block.
I told you yesterday, within the last 24 hours, if it was a will versus Amy. For eviction that based on what I had read and the tweets I saw, it was going to be a 12 to one vote and Rachel was the only one that was gonna vote to keep Amy, and I guess Rachel just decided, look, it’s pointless to keep my vote for Amy when I know everybody else in the house is voting for her to be evicted.
And they did. It was 13. Nothing to evict Amy. And I thought what was interesting was once Adrian won BB Blockbuster, they all come back into the house. And at least in past seasons, from what I remember, people start scrambling. Granted they only got like one or two minutes before they can start talking game.
And who are they voting out? Nobody. Split off into Twosomes, into threesomes and said, what should we do? Who are you voting for? Basically everybody just gave Amy her goodbye hug right there. Hell, even Rachel didn’t even seem to campaign. So I think the whole house knew if Adrian wins BB Blockbuster and its Will versus Amy.
Amy’s going home and then Amy said to Julie after the fact, she felt she was going home regardless. And I guess even if she was sitting up there against Adrian, she was going home unless some people got bold and wanted to get rid of Adrian, but Amy seemed to be under the assumption. Yeah. Yeah. I’m, I’m going home tonight.
Did you catch what Amy said as she was walking out the door to go meet Julie basically screamed out. Jimmy’s a liar and a snake. Get him outta there. I don’t think it was Jimmy that got Amy out, was it? I, I can’t imagine it was, but even though the vote was 13 to nothing last night, I do think we have two factions in the house and with HOH happening last night.
At the time I’m recording this, I do not know who won HOH, but. If it comes from the group of guys along with Kelly, then the other group of women are gonna be targeted and vice versa. Seems like that’s where the divide is happening. One thing that I was surprised at last night that did not happen, I understand they had to bring Taylor and Derek out to talk about BB Unlocked.
That happens tonight. I’ll be watching it. It’s an hour. I dunno if I’m gonna watch it live. I don’t know if I’m gonna watch it tonight. I don’t know if I’ll I’ll, but I’ll get to it at some point this weekend before Sunday’s episode. But what I will say is after you brought them out, I saw that there was still a few minutes left on the clock.
I thought, I mean, maybe it’ll happen next Thursday, but I thought it would’ve been interesting if Julie got on this camera. Went live with the cast sitting on the couch and just said, Hey, I have to tell you something. The accomplice was Amy, like, is the house ever gonna know that the accomplice was Amy? I gotta believe at some point they will, but why not tell them now because Amy’s gone and I mean, I guess maybe that could possibly ruin gameplay.
Because they could think somebody else is the accomplice and it might make them vote a certain way because they think somebody is lying to them about being the accomplice. I don’t know, maybe that’s why they didn’t reveal to them. But usually when something goes outta the house like Amy did and is never going back in, I thought usually they would reveal something about that person could be wrong.
Here’s something I want to say about Kelly. Really good competitor. I believe I read that she’s the first person ever to win two challenges in the first two weeks of the season. There’s something I wanna say about Kelly, and I haven’t even spoken to Susanna about this Bachelor data, but Kelly reminds me so much of Susanna, they kinda look alike, especially when Susanna wears her glasses.
They have the middle part, and to me, the voice inflection. I, I, they are, I guess the best way to put it is they are definitely more sound alikes than lookalikes, but they also kind of, they also kind of look alike, just a little, not saying that they’re identical twins or anything like that, but when I hear Kelly on the screen and I see kind of her mannerisms, because I, not only the times have I FaceTimed with Susanna.
Or had her on my YouTube channel and done video there. Susanna and I FaceTime a lot, and I just, I’m just used to seeing her face and her mannerisms and the way she talks, and I just see Kelly, and when I hear Kelly and I see Kelly on the screen on Big Brother, I’m like, gosh, she totally reminds me of Susanna.
That’s the best way I could put it. I don’t know, I, and that’s not sort of any sort of insult to Susanna. Nothing at all, like. It’s just, they really, really sound alike. Or Kelly sounds like Susanna Bachelor data. So I just wanted to point that out because it, it really, it really struck me last night. I’ve also noticed that for BB Blockbuster, because it’s a live show and because they have to compete live every single BB blockbuster, and I don’t even remember any of them last season.
But I feel like they are all some sort of puzzles, right? Puzzles that can be solved within about two to three minutes. They’re not doing anything endurance, usually. It’s not doing anything that’s strength related. It’s something that’s timed that has to be done within a couple minutes because they don’t want to have a competition in BB Blockbuster that goes five or seven minutes long.
So when we get to BB Blockbuster and just knowing who’s gonna be in it every week by Wednesday night. I think it might be easier to start predicting who’s gonna win these things because I don’t know, I just saw that particular competition, and if you looked at Big Brother’s Instagram page, Julie ran the competition about four hours before the show last night.
So you could have seen what exactly the puzzle was because Julie did the puzzle herself and she finished it in less than two minutes. So I thought. Just going forward. It’s just never gonna be anything ridiculously hard because they can’t have it go very long. It’s a live show. They gotta be out at the 60 minute mark, so you don’t want to kill any time on the back end with voting and people giving their final speeches and stuff like that.
So just keep that in mind going forward. BB Blockbuster game is not going to be. All that hard, and it’s only gonna take a couple minutes. I gotta believe every single one of ’em is gonna be some sort of puzzle. Well, the Golden Bachelor has their first date of the season today, meaning opening night was Wednesday night.
Obviously, I haven’t heard anything, and I probably won’t hear anything about Golden Bachelor until the end of the season, but for the first two seasons we’ve had this. Gary season and Joan season. You did have your hometown dates and you did have your winner spoiled before the finale aired, so I would think at some point I’m gonna find out who Mel picks Carol, but you know that today’s group date and Sunday’s group date, if you listened to yesterday’s episode number 4 53 with Kristen Baldwin from Entertainment Weekly, she is part of the media that’s going to be at Sunday’s date.
So keep that in mind. But today’s group date, along with Sundays, is something that you can attend if you live in the Southern California area. I gave you the email address a couple days ago. ’cause they were promoting it. Hey, come out and be part of one of Mel’s group dates. Well. I don’t know if this means that they’re having trouble getting people to respond because they just think mail sucks.
But they started sending out emails themselves yesterday saying Last minute tickets are available. The email said, this is your personal invitation to join us tomorrow for an intimate, fun golden bachelor date event. And it’s gonna be on the field at the LA Coliseum with Jesse Palmer and obviously the cast, and they have in this email Hint, go Rams.
And remember Mel Owens played for the Rams from 1981 to 1989. The Rams, I think for a season or two before they went to Anaheim Stadium, might’ve played at the Coliseum and shared the stadium with the Raiders. So it’s clearly going to be a football date. What a shocker. First date of the season gonna be a football date.
But I just think it’s funny that this was not somebody that got this email that. Sent out and responded to the email address I gave the other day, and this is the show, emailing them back saying, you’re confirmed. This is, Hey, this is your personal invitation to come out. This is somebody who is just on their email list and now they’re firing it off to people.
So. I hope it’s because they got little response. I hope there’s three people in the stands at the La Coliseum, which holds about 90,000. I think that would be hilarious. Look, I’m not giving, I, I’m gonna cover this season of the Golden Bachelor. I did not snark on Gary’s season. I did not snark on Jones season this season.
Nothing but snark and not against the contestants. I’m just going to find a way to make a joke about everything Mel says and does, because he’s a joke to joke that he said what he did. It’s a joke that they didn’t recast him, and this season is already a piece of crap anyway, so might as well just pile on.
Right. I just think it’s hilarious that I, maybe they’ve done this in the past when they just didn’t get enough responses for people to come out and be part of any sort of group date. Maybe they have done it in the past, but I just think it’s funny. For Mel’s first date of the season, they’re literally begging people.
Hey, come on out. This is your free invitation to come to our date. You didn’t even have to send an initial email. We’ll just email you and ask you. It’s almost like in in parentheses, they’re basically saying, please, please come out to our date. We’ve got nobody. Don’t anybody that got this email. All you gotta do is move your mouse over.
To where it says delete and click that and don’t show up. I know the other day I said, I want you all to show up and boo him Now that they’re begging people to come out, screw it. Don’t even go. I hope nobody’s there.
