You are listening to the Daily Roundup here as part of the Reality. Steve Podcast, I’m your host reality. Steve, thank you all for tuning in a good episode for you tonight, recording this rather late. And I’ll tell you why in a second, but we are gonna talk about Bachelor in Paradise last night. Probably the most important episode so far of the season.
And then we’ll get into what happened yesterday at the veto ceremony and what’s going on in the Big Brother house. What an absolute car wreck that has become. Wow. Yeah. So let’s get started. I wanna say this, we had a little bit of a scare last night with Luca. And remember how I told you I would never, I have not missed a show since I started this daily roundup, July 11th, 2022.
And I’ve always said, look, the only way I’d ever miss a show, and you’re not gonna have a show Monday through Friday, is if one of two things happen, some sort of audio issue. And I just left it at. Any sort of bad thing happening. I didn’t wanna put it out into the world, but let’s face it, if something were to happen with Luca, I don’t think I would podcast for a few days.
That’s my guess. Last night was a little scary, but just to calm everybody’s nerves right off the bat. She’s okay. Yesterday she just went completely lethargic, was not moving. Was resting under the kitchen table. Something she’s never done, wasn’t moving around. I’d go to pet her, no acknowledgement of me, she’d let me pet her.
But a couple times when I pet her on her back, got a few Yelps, and then it just got really lethargic later on in the night. So after I’m watching Bachelor in Paradise, I go over to her, she’s under the kitchen table, and I’m like, this is not normal. I’ve had her almost seven years now. Her birthday’s two weeks from yesterday.
I’ve never seen her act like this. Never seen her, this lethargic, never seen her clearly having pain somewhere, whether it was her, it was either in her stomach or her back neck area. So I was like, I gotta take her to the emergency room. I gotta see, I, I can’t. So I did, and it ended up being her neck.
She’s got a little bit of. I should have brought the paperwork with me in my office that they sent me home with. Basically, I just have to give her a medication anti-inflammatories and stuff like that. It’s basically like, her C six and C seven disc little compressed, so it’s pinching a nerve in her neck.
Trust me. I thought it was way worse. I thought it was way worse and yeah. Good thing. This is just something that could be treated with pain medication. Obviously I can’t have her be active and jumping up and down or whatever, and I don’t think she can because she’s got a pain in her neck and she, yesterday I first noticed that she was not able to jump on the couch, couldn’t come up on the bed, on the ramp, and I’m like, something’s wrong, because she’s not limping.
Usually it’s from, she jumps off something and you know, she’ll pull a muscle or something like that. I can tell she’s trying to jump and she can’t. This one was weird ’cause she started yelping when I started grabbing her, like trying to pick her up. And I was like, oh my gosh, this is like the loudest Yelp ever.
She’s in serious pain. Ended up being that she, yeah, she had an MRI, she had a so, ultrasound done. Wasn’t cheap, tell you that much, but anything for Luca, anything for my dog, even if it was over a thousand dollars last night. But she’s good. Her mood has changed. She’s moving around a lot better. Clearly if I showed you videos of her yesterday, it, it looks worse than what she’s acting now.
So, thank God her behavior’s changed 180 degrees and it’s like, I, I can’t remember the medical term for it, but it’s in her C six and seven on her neck. So all good pain medication. Just gotta monitor. Can’t have her go crazy. Can’t have her jumping up and down, but she should be okay going forward.
Alright, let’s talk Bachelor in Paradise. Last night was the start of the end of the season, which is the thing I liked about last night is it looks like it’s not gonna be the same thing every week. Like last night we saw they had a competition. They had a game of high, low top finisher in that game, was safe from elimination, and they got to choose.
The woman got to choose. Which woman she wanted to save, and the bottom three scores were up for elimination, and the winner was gonna be able to save two of the three. So it’s not just like, I don’t think that’s the same thing every week. I don’t think next week we’re gonna have another competition.
There’s gonna be a winning team and a bottom three. It doesn’t seem like it by the trailers, but it could be misleading because I thought in the trailer for next week. We hear a voiceover of Jesse saying you will be voted out by the rest of the people. So I think next week everybody votes, not just as we saw last night it was up to Riley, not Riley.
I’m calling her Riley. I’m mixing up with Big Brother people and Riley on Big Brother is a dude. Bailey, it’s been a long night. I haven’t started recording this till 1230 in the morning. And I’ve been gone since about nine 30. So yeah. Anyway, so Bailey was the one that got to choose and we’ll, we’ll get to that in a little bit.
So the game they played was high, low. And the thing that I didn’t like about this game is I wanted to hear more of the answers and some of the questions all we saw, I mean, there were a few, we got to see a few questions and some of the answers. But the fact that Brian and Parisa had two points the whole game, we didn’t see all their answers.
We didn’t even hear all their questions, and then we see Kat and Dale got every question, right? I don’t think we heard out maybe more than two questions that they had to answer and what the answer was. So I thought that was a little weird. I thought we would hear more considering it’s a two hour episode.
You could have shown more because I think a lot that happened at the cocktail party was kind of unnecessary. I would’ve preferred more questions and answers to be shown and cut into the cocktail party stuff since there was only three people who were even had a chance to go home. Three couples. It was Gary and Leslie and Brian and Parisa and Kim and Faith.
I think we could have spent more time on that, but we didn’t. Brian and Parisa are a hot mess. These two, I don’t believe are even together anymore, but I don’t think it’s any surprise to anybody who’s been watching this season that these two aren’t together because Brian has a problem accepting compliments from the girl that he’s dating.
What, Brian, what’s your problem?
To me, the second you start saying, stop complimenting me, it means you don’t care about her. I’m sorry. There’s no other way to look at that. He doesn’t care about Parisa. He’s done with her. He was done with her there. They’re done now in real life, whatever. But seeing it play out, yeah, that was kind of embarrassing.
Brian. Remember that doctor’s appointment you were supposed to make a while ago, the one you meant to book? We got sidetracked and completely forgot about it until now. You know, dermatologist appointment for that rash. You’ve been looking at looking a little off dentist appointment for your biannual cleaning.
As I get older, I’m catching myself thinking I should go to the Dr. Moore. And you know what I actually did yesterday, even before everything that happened with Luca, late last night, I had another ear doctor appointment that I had to find because again.
