After The Golden Bachelorette wrapped up, fans of the show were determined to find all the fine, funny, and emotionally available men a match. They did, after all, bare their souls for millions to watch. The women on top of their minds? Of course, Gerry Turner‘s potential matches from The Golden Bachelor.

And with that, the ship between Susan Noles and Jack Lencioni was born. The two outspoken individuals both possess a charismatic mixture of over-the-top humor and an innate sense of fun. This seemed like a match made in heaven.

Yet, not all could see this duo working. Michael Stevens was one of those in doubt. To make sure, he asked Noles about it when he was a guest on her Golden Hour podcast with Kathy Swarts.

“I have to ask you a question,” Stevens began. “I don’t want to put you on the spot, but I am going to ask you anyway.” He then brought up the potential Golden Bachelor in Paradise spinoff and how the fans had linked her to Lencioni.

Curious, Stevens prompted, “I wonder how you felt about that. He’s a great guy, but I don’t see you together.”

Not a shy individual, Noles was quick to answer, “He’s [Jack Lencioni] a great guy. I could see us cooking together, laughing together,” before ending the statement with, “But the chemistry wasn’t there.”

“I’m not surprised,” Stevens replied.

Noles continued, “You need to have chemistry. You can’t force it. He seems like a great guy. He was fun. He wasn’t my guy. I consider him my friend.”

However, that doesn’t mean that Noles isn’t ready to date. Prior to talking about Stevens, Swarts divulged her honest thoughts about another of Noles’ potential suitors, “This guy literally for 45 minutes, all he did was talk about himself, Susan knows everything about this guy, everything about him, how many cars he drives, what kind of cars he drives, where he lives, how much land he owns, what he does for a living, what he earns, everything.” The 71-year-old added, “You know what he knows about her? The one question he asked her was, ‘What kind of car she has.’ He knows nothing about her.”

Because of this interaction, Swarts concluded, “Red flag, get rid of him.”

The Pennsylvania native doesn’t necessarily agree as she even revealed a message the man had sent her while the podcast was recording. Noles shared that he texted, “I see you are back from LA and recovering from your procedure, social media, LOL. Let me know if you’re still interested in meeting.”

Not talking as much about Swarts’ current romantic escapades, Stevens tried to shoot his shot. When the chatty duo inquired about his interest in a potential Golden Bachelor in Paradise and who he’d want to be there, he immediately said, “Well, certainly you Kathy. I want you to be there.”
