The always highly anticipated Hometowns episode was a bit subdued this season, with reasonable and supportive family members backing each drama-free relationship. As far as the actual location of the "hometown" dates, well, in the words of Stephen A. Smith, "We have been hoodwinked, bamboozled, led astray, run amok, and flat-out deceived!" Thanks for listening.Text the mailbag: (773) 234-7794Timestamps:0:05 “Hometowns”3:00 Brandon day time date10:30 Brandon’s family18:00 Rodney day time date21:00 Rodney’s family28:00 Joe actual hometown34:00 Joe’s family38:00 Nayte day time date 41:00 Nayte family50:00 Michelle contemplating with friends51:00 Rose Ceremony55:00 Uninformed schedule talk56:00 Power Rankings/Pros and Cons1:05:00 Mailbag1:10:00 Moderately informed schedule talk1:13:00 The Rose League scoring updateTeePublic merch store: [teepublic.com/rosecast]'More Rim and AB!' weekly podcast on Patreon: patreon.com/rimandabSocial:Instagram @rosecastpodcast [instagram.com/rosecastpodcast]Twitter @rosecastpodcast [twitter.com/rosecastpodcast]Facebook /rosecastpodcast [facebook.com/rosecastpodcast]TikTok @rosecastpodcast [vm.tiktok.com/24dKMx]Facebook group: [https://www.facebook.com/groups/rosecastnation] Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
