Transcript excerpt

So the season eight, how do we feel? Daniel and Taylor, I'm rooting for them. I have to say, like, a woman's intuition is rarely wrong. Like, you feel as if he may have known who she was beforehand. Lauren Dave? I think he's over. He's talking oh, he hates that. All he wanted to talk about on vacation was sex. Remember? Oh, yeah. He's not like a single worse. Y'all have sex to all of y'all? Let's talk cringiest dating stories. What the fuck is gone.
