Alex Cooper Presents... CALL HER DADDY CREATING CONVERSATION SINCE 2018
Paul Best, welcome to Color Bad. Thank you so much for having me. Your name isn't Paul Best. Pavel Vasilevskiy. My parents are both from Warsaw. I grew up in Jersey. I was part of the Jersey Shore best bumping the guy who plays the situation. I love you. You say the guy who plays the situation. That's his real life. Okay. So that guy comes up and he's like, hey, Paul. We used to hang out in the Jersey Shore. Then there's been another bromance in your life. Smolder holder. We're in, like, a marriage. I was like, Ian, we're playing brothers. We need to, like, bond. He's like, I have an idea. Let's fly to Atlanta, and let's get apartments next to each other. Can you define Steph Fussy? It's a bit of an enigma. I don't even know what I don't even know what to say. Stefan, lock in. Do you think he should have ended up with Caroline or Elena? I think the brothers should have died together and he should have ended up with no one. Ian feels the same. Who do you identify most with in real life? Stefan, Silas, tier Tom Avery? Silas. Where do you stand with Matt Donovan? He's the only mortal, and he's the only one that, like, didn't die. What storyline could you just not get behind? I've never even seen the show. Paul?
