What's up, guys, this is Jacques, welcome back to One Popular. I know this episode was supposed to drop a few days ago as

like a bonus or something, but I just couldn't get it together in time. I don't know what to say.

It actually, to be fair, was not my fault. We're in lockdown again here in Sydney. So my

extremely social housemate who is usually out like all the time until all hours of the night is actually home all the time

and I couldn't get in the vibe to record. Like, I just really need to go there when I record

and let loose and be psycho and just, you know, lose my shit and act like a lunatic. And when

there's people around, I can't do it. And he's out now, which I'm surprised it took him so long to get out.

I didn't even think he was going to follow any lockdown protocol. So each night I'm like

waiting for him to go out with his friends and he was like actually at home. I'm like,

what? I follow the protocol, by the way. So don't fucking leave me some comment like thinking

that I'm not. We're going to talk about Ebony today finally because that's what everyone wants to hear me talk about.

I've had so many messages about Ebony.

And I'm going to talk a little Bachelor stuff and Rachel Lindsay and I want to talk about the view shakeup,

even though I hate the view, but I have some thoughts on it.

And also this stupid

Joe Rogan featuring the New York Times that was just totally embarrassing. Also, I just

recorded with Ryan Bailey for his podcast. So bad, it's good with Ryan Bailey. I love his show.

He's just really funny and professional and he's really fun to record with. Obviously, I've had him on here before

and I will have him back again sometime. That will be our Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday,

US time. And yeah, I just really enjoy recording with Ryan and we talked about a bunch of

stuff.

Before I get into that, shout out to Below Deck Mediterranean. It is back for season six.
