This week on The Bachelor Lifestyle, Brian and Jason dive deep into a strange and confusing episode of Bachelor in Paradise. From geriatric contestants doing water aerobics to Gen Z slang confusion, it’s clear this isn’t the Paradise we signed up for. The guys break down the bizarre pivot from beachside romance to game show competition—with $500,000 on the line. Along the way, they cover chewed gum kisses, dating red flags, “pause” vs. “no homo,” and a whole lot of April's age.
