Love the Floor and you love game
shows. We all love the Floor.

19
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:38.159
We watched it on Fox airing January
through March. It's a top five

20
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:41.359
show on Hulu right now. And
if you don't believe us a show,

21
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:45.640
they're talking about it on Saturday Night
Live. Yeah, pop culture phenomena.

22
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:51.560
Okay, people love the Floor.
And over the weekend I went tracking down

23
00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:56.680
as i'll do on the internet sometimes, and I found the season one winner

24
00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:00.480
of the Floor. Oh, miss
Jacqueline Kenny joins us live on the free

25
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:07.840
line. Hello, there she is. There's our champion, Yes, champion

26
00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:10.400
in the house. Hello, how
are you doing so good? One of

27
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:15.000
is it eighty one? We started
with eighty one, eighty one, eighty

28
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:20.879
one, Yes, the crown champion
of eighty one. It's still I'm still

29
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:24.120
processing, to be honest. So
it was kind of during the writer's strike

30
00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:28.840
right that they started running promos for
the Floor. And we know how networks

31
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:30.280
go to game shows and like,
you know, stuff that doesn't need as

32
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:34.360
many writers whatever, So we started
talking about the floor, and it was

33
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:37.960
almost a joke. I was like, all right, guys, January tewod

34
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:39.919
the floor begins. Because we didn't
know anything about it. We had no

35
00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:43.199
clue. We just know they're throw
another game show at us. We all

36
00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:46.919
right, yeah, of course you
didn't know, and we start watching it.

37
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:49.919
We're like those kind of kick ass
and then we ended up watching every

38
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.599
damn episode and there you were standing
at the very end. So for real,

39
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:58.840
congrats, how did that feel?
Fun? Thank you? It it

40
00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:01.560
feels amazing, I mean, and
it's still looking back like fun fact,

41
00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:05.520
I technically was even cast as an
alternate, Like I didn't find out I

42
00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:08.879
was actually going to be filming on
the show until about forty eight hours prior

43
00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:12.439
to leaving for filming, where I
just got the emails like here's your flight

44
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:13.960
in phone. I was like,
oh my gosh, okay, here we

45
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.199
go. So never in a millionaire
thought I would even be cast on the

46
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:20.400
show, much less, you know, winning at all and being the first

47
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:23.639
season one champion. And I just
remember the first day prior to filming,

48
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:27.080
sitting there and you know, start
explaining the rules and they're kind of you

49
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:29.360
know, they're explaining how to play, because this is a brand new game

50
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:31.120
show to the United States too,
So going on, you know, another

51
00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:34.919
show like Jeopardy or will Fortune or
something like that, you know, you

52
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:37.520
know how to play, you have
the gist of it, but going into

53
00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:39.520
this completely blind, like we really
didn't know what to expect. So they

54
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:43.199
were going through the rules and as
real, Iber was sitting there like looking

55
00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:45.560
around too, just being like,
wow, this is one such a cool

56
00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:47.639
experience, So like, how awesome
that like one of these other people,

57
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:52.560
not myself, like someone else in
this room was gonna win, like so

58
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:54.280
so cool for them, right,
And I was just excited for someone else

59
00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:59.240
who was going to take that prize, never in a millionaire thinking oh my

60
00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:01.360
god, it's me. I want
it. Let's go back in time,

61
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:08.000
excuse me, Jacqueline to win this
all you became aware of this, What

62
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:12.599
was what tipped you off on where
to apply to be on the show?

63
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:15.040
What was the audition process? How
long do all of that take? Because

64
00:04:15.079 --> 00:04:19.959
when you watch the show, the
producers did a really good job of getting

65
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:26.439
a wide array and a vast collection, a cross section of every element of

66
00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:29.279
our American society. How did you
fit into that? And what was that

67
00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:34.439
audition system, Like yeah, so
I actually Iran and I love trivia.

68
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:36.959
I played bar trivia, you know, my whole life growing up, or

69
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:41.399
I mean at least being of legal
age to go into bars, but playing

70
00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:44.920
bar trivia. I used to live
in California. I went once to like

71
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:47.079
the state championship of bar trivia,
Like, yes, that is a thing.

72
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:51.279
So I've always loved trivia. And
back in twenty twenty, I remember

73
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:55.399
seeing an ad come across my Instagram
and I think it was just a basic

74
00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:59.279
questionnaire like do you like trivia?
Apply now? So I ended up applying

75
00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:02.120
for a different so completely separate from
the Floor. You know, two years

76
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:04.439
ago, nothing ever came from it. I think I had one interview,

77
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:10.000
like forgot all about it. And
then this summer I got an email from

78
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:13.120
the same casting company that they were
then casting for the Floor, and they

79
00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:15.079
said, you know, hey,
we remember having a conversation with you.

80
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:18.839
You like trivia. We're casting for
a trivia based game show. If you're

81
00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:23.560
interested, let us know, we'll
have a conversation. So the first step

82
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:26.879
was you did have to have kind
of a trivia quiz with them. It

83
00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:30.319
was basically like a forty question power
point, almost very similar to how the

84
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:34.120
layout of the show works, where
it's pictures and you identify, you know,

85
00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:36.680
the image that you're seeing. So
that was step one, and then

86
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:40.920
you had you know, some more
formal kind of zoom interviews and everything.

87
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:44.639
But again, like this process lasted
throughout the summer, you know. I

88
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:46.800
think it was like my first email
was maybe in like May or June,

89
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:51.639
and then you know, I didn't
get cast until the very very last minute

90
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:57.000
in July, and I was going
on like workships. I had a bachelorette

91
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:00.680
planned, so I had to call
the bride and say, hey, I

92
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:03.560
might not be going because I might
be going to film a game show instead.

93
00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:05.759
So I actually talked to her the
other day. I was like,

94
00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:13.199
surprise, I'm too glad I missed
you bachshorette. You're exactly yeah, She's

95
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:15.800
like, so about that wedding gift. Let's upside a little bit now.

96
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:19.920
But yeah, I had no idea
that I was getting cast until the very

97
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:23.600
last minute. But I think what's
so interesting is when we first got to

98
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:28.959
filming too, I remember other contestants
saying that they had been cast like two

99
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:31.959
weeks ago, a month ago,
and I got really like almost nervous and

100
00:06:31.959 --> 00:06:34.160
self conscious, and I was like, I don't want people to know that

101
00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:38.920
I was actually an alternate, Like
I'm having poker faith on from the get

102
00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:42.000
go. So I was already kind
of just simming to everyone saying like,

103
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:45.480
oh yeah, I've known for like
a month. I was getting cassed because

104
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:47.040
I didn't want them to think,
oh, she's an alternate, or like

105
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:53.279
she's not a strong competitor. I
was very strategic from the second I got

106
00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:55.759
to filming. I was like,
we're in it to win it here,

107
00:06:56.399 --> 00:07:00.920
all right, this is Jacqueline Kenny. She just emerged Victoria on the floor

108
00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:03.600
the Fox TV show that has been
on for a couple months. How the

109
00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:10.279
game itself? Right? So we
watch and it's shocking how easy some of

110
00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:14.000
the questions are and I know you
know that. And then there I'm not

111
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:16.519
going to say I was sweeping categories. I mean almost every category. It

112
00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:19.160
would get to something where I'm like, I don't know kombucha. I don't

113
00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:24.160
know what that drink is, but
it does start with water and milk.

114
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:29.480
So walk us through that. Man, you're up there, And how about

115
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.720
because it's sort of a they get
you with something that they know you know,

116
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:35.399
but you just can't say it in
one, one or two seconds,

117
00:07:35.399 --> 00:07:39.600
which is the premise of the entire
game. How was it for you up

118
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:42.240
there? I don't remember your specific
categories, certainly at the beginning. I

119
00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:45.319
know TV host, I know the
last one. Yeah, yeah, I

120
00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:48.279
with TV host. I mean,
yeah, it's it's extremely nerve wracking,

121
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:51.639
and so much of this game is
it's just how you handle the pressure.

122
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:56.160
There were some contestants that you saw
go up there and they see the image

123
00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:59.720
that they would take like the longest
ten second pause, and you're just wasting

124
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:01.959
your own clock, you know so
very much. You had to say calm

125
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:05.079
and cool and under pressure. When
I first got up there, my strategy,

126
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:09.439
because you can only see really your
clues technically in the middle. What

127
00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:13.160
the audience at home could see were
all the clues, right, My strategy

128
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:16.839
was complete. I got up there
blinders on. I never looked at the

129
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:20.600
middle screen, so I'm like,
it's irrelevant what my other competitor is guessing,

130
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:24.199
because it doesn't affect me. So
I was just looking at my screen

131
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:28.560
the whole time. And I also
stood in such a way that I didn't

132
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:31.480
see my timer at the bottom left
hand corner, and I did that on

133
00:08:31.559 --> 00:08:35.360
purpose. I did not want to
see my timer. I figured if I

134
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:37.600
did it might it might stress me
out a little bit more to see my

135
00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:41.200
clock ticking down. So I had
just such blinders on straight ahead, just

136
00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:46.080
at the clue. And my strategy
also was the second. If I saw

137
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:50.039
a clue come up and I didn't
recognize it instantly, I would give it

138
00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:54.120
one guess, and if I didn't
get that, I instantly passed. I

139
00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:56.159
figured it. I was like,
you're not if you don't know what instantly,

140
00:08:56.559 --> 00:08:58.159
you're going to just burn your clock
out. So better to pass,

141
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:01.639
lose the three second, and take
the chance that the next clue that you

142
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:05.600
got, you're going to know that
instantly, and then pick back up where

143
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:09.279
you started. Okay, so when
you go in and you it's funny because

144
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:13.320
you you only had three duels in
this whole game, uh TV host,

145
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.240
and then you ended up with musicals
and got past that, and I think

146
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:20.440
that was in the third episode,
and then you went from episode four to

147
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:22.879
episode ten. You're not like you're
in it, but you're not. You

148
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:26.840
didn't have to play again. So
when you go you have all these areas

149
00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:33.200
of expertise My question is do you
submit your area of expertise or did they

150
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:35.840
tell you, hey, here's the
choice of all the things that we're gonna

151
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.960
have, you know, put in
your top three or how did that work?

152
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:43.120
Did because there were some that were
very odd, like things in the

153
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:46.240
kitchen or things in the bathroom or
something, you know, kitchen area and

154
00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:50.279
bathroom items. And that's the thing
I mean, I think when you think

155
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:52.080
of it too, there's eighty one
different categories that they had to fill.

156
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:54.960
So I think some people too,
when they're getting cast, like you know,

157
00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:58.200
they had more general item knowledge or
something like that, so they would

158
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:01.919
get slot into the those kind of
categories. We definitely had to, you

159
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:07.000
know, have multiple interviews and kind
of fill out questionnaires about the categories that

160
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:09.159
we felt the strongest in. So
production did get a really good sense of

161
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:13.679
like who would be best for what. I actually talked a lot in my

162
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.320
interviews too about sports, so I
knew I was going to get either you

163
00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:20.840
know, something in pop culture,
TV show hosts, et cetera, or

164
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:26.080
something sports related. So when I
saw that I wasn't sports related, I

165
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.159
also really held that, like those
ships to myself that I used to that

166
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:33.559
I still currently do work in sports, because I didn't want people to have

167
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.320
any idea that I knew sports,
hoping that like if eventually down the line,

168
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:39.799
you know, someone challenged me thinking
I was potentially week in sports.

169
00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:43.480
You know, I could have an
edge, So I knew that I was

170
00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:48.519
probably going to be pop culture.
So TV show hosts to me wasn't too

171
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.000
much of a surprise. But short
answer, no, we did not get

172
00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:56.960
to select the categories ourselves. They
were determined for us at random by production.

173
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:03.360
All right, Jacqueline, I've how
did you feel when it's down to

174
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:07.759
you? And what was the final
guy's name? Homeboy? Arthur? Arthur,

175
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:13.360
and it's you two. He commands
the most floor space, so it's

176
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:18.000
your category. In the category that
he has, he gets to choose the

177
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:24.600
category to challenge you with. Yours
was I believe international foods. The one

178
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:30.919
he was sitting on was fashion icons. When he picked fashion icons, please

179
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:33.559
tell me in the back of your
mind, you're like, what an idiot?

180
00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:37.799
I got this? Because look,
international foods. He's got a chance.

181
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:41.679
I could not believe that. It
shocked me. And he gets up

182
00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:46.440
there and pass, pass, pass
passed, Like Jackie's taking this sucker home.

183
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.320
I mean, I'm not gonna lie
when it hand out, And it

184
00:11:50.360 --> 00:11:54.960
became those two categories. Lest I
was beside myself on the inside. I

185
00:11:56.000 --> 00:12:00.600
was trying to remain as calm,
cold collected as humanly possible, but you

186
00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:03.480
know, without sounding too cocky.
I felt very confident in both of those,

187
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:07.559
and I was like, this is
mine to lose, so just stay

188
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:11.279
calm. I think in his strategy, and I think what people forget too

189
00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:15.159
is like, so we did film
this, you know, over multiple days.

190
00:12:15.399 --> 00:12:18.000
I was not filmed in one day
and any time. And I think

191
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:22.080
all the contestants, if you were
to pull anyone and they asked who studied

192
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:26.399
the hardest, it was me,
like one hundred percent. I feel like

193
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:30.440
all the casts, you know,
after we'd filmed, they were you know,

194
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:31.519
they'd hang out, they'd go to
the bar, you know, have

195
00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:35.360
a drink. I went to bed
every night. I studied. I made

196
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.080
like my own floorboard in a PowerPoint
presentation. I was like, so type

197
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:41.919
a setting. So I think day
over day, you know, the longer

198
00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:46.960
I had international foods, I was
studying that over and over and over again.

199
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:50.360
So I think maybe in his mind
he was like, hey, she's

200
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:52.759
been studying this now for a couple
of days. She knows it very very

201
00:12:52.799 --> 00:12:56.480
well. Fashion icons like it's going
to be brand new to both of us.

202
00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:00.960
Maybe that will, you know,
give me the best shot to win.

203
00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:03.440
I just think, but instinctively,
I'm looking at you, who seems

204
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:09.960
to be i mean, very well
put together human being, a female that

205
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:13.200
probably knows a little bit more about
that world than I would. I'm not

206
00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:18.159
going there at least with international foods, oh eggs. You know, I

207
00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:20.480
got a probably having chance. He
like, she just said he probably knew

208
00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:24.759
that she'd been sitting on that for
multiple episodes and been studying international foods,

209
00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:30.960
so he and he was very good
at general seemingly everything. Yeh, He's

210
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:33.399
like, we just throw something random
out. At least it's something that she

211
00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:37.320
hasn't been studying for for two days. He couldn't even tell who fear a

212
00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:41.039
Wing was. He didn't get Cindy
Crawford. I know Cindy. I know

213
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:43.080
Cindy Crawford. I think that was
the one that everyone was like, oh

214
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:48.120
no, And I just I will
never forget the feeling too of hearing like

215
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:50.759
with every pass, I think my
heart was just racing more and more and

216
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:54.480
more and more, And it wasn't
until I heard roblow and he was just

217
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:56.679
like Jacqueline, and I heard it
and then I was like, oh my

218
00:13:56.720 --> 00:14:01.559
god, it actually happened. So
I'm pretty sure I blacked out on stage

219
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.200
like for the after that happened for
the next like five minutes. I don't

220
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:09.039
really recall anything, but just such
a cool experience. And I was still

221
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:13.279
very nervous going into that duel,
just because even though I felt comfortable with

222
00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:16.799
the categories themselves, so much of
it is like he had been up there

223
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:18.919
multiple times already, and like when
you get a little bit of momentum,

224
00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:22.799
you shake off the nerves of being
up there, Like I hadn't been up

225
00:14:22.799 --> 00:14:28.159
to that podium in a couple days. So like the shitters definitely came back

226
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:31.120
again. Yeah, all right,
Jacquelin Kenny won the floor recently. So

227
00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:35.840
how was Rob loan? Was he
boozing at the bar? He didn't drink.

228
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:39.799
He didn't drink, think so yeah, no, I think, yeah,

229
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:43.799
I think he's still he's still sober. But he was so sweet,

230
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.279
I mean, very easy to work
with. Just I mean, he's exactly

231
00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:50.159
what you think Rob Love would be, just so charming. I mean definitely

232
00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:54.080
aging very very well. Yeah you
ever seen a fifty nine year old smoke

233
00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:58.240
show like that in your life?
Good God? I mean yeah, having

234
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.679
to also like you're up at the
podium, you're under the clock, you're

235
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:05.200
nervous, you're in front of eighty
one other people, a live studio audience,

236
00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:07.519
and then have to do that like
in front of Rob blow too,

237
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:13.480
and he's just so you want you
won two and fifty gs, You get

238
00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:18.679
the you get the bread yet.
I haven't got the bread yet. It's

239
00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:22.799
it's on the way, trus me. I feel, yeah, I'm waiting

240
00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:26.200
for that moment, and I know
I talked about it on the show.

241
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:30.080
I'm just so excited to have a
nice trip with my with my parents,

242
00:15:30.360 --> 00:15:33.320
you know, do something wrong with
it, take some vacations. But other

243
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:37.120
than that, I feel like I'll
be pretty boring with the money. Lots

244
00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:41.240
of savings, investments, you know, play it safe. Let the money

245
00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:43.559
worked for me. A little bit
down the line. Text are coming in

246
00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:46.840
uh on our on our end,
Jacqueline. It says Jacqueline is an e

247
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:52.679
fing gamer and played everybody, including
production on that show Legend. So I

248
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:56.080
have a couple of questions. So
it probably takes three, four or five

249
00:15:56.120 --> 00:15:58.759
days to shoot this. It's you
know, ten episodes, so I know

250
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:03.639
that probably do it all in bulk
there. But they made the choice to

251
00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:08.360
make everyone wear the same thing every
single day. So you were wearing what

252
00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:14.000
we were discussing earlier. We were
having an internal debate was it green or

253
00:16:14.080 --> 00:16:18.879
was it yellow? Whatever outfit you
were wearing. I went with lime green.

254
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:22.879
But you can answer that and to
is that just their wardrobe? Do

255
00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:26.879
they wash it? Like? How
does that work? I was thinking about

256
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:30.320
that everyone's wearing the same thing like
five days in a row. It's so

257
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:33.840
funny. This is like the number
one question I have been asked since the

258
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:36.519
Gecko. Everyone is so curious.
So yeah, I will tell you all

259
00:16:36.559 --> 00:16:38.559
how it works. So first and
foremost, I will say, so,

260
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:44.200
I've been identifying the color as chartruths. It's a sharttooth stress, which chartooth

261
00:16:44.279 --> 00:16:48.720
is like a combination of lime and
yellow. So you're both technically correct in

262
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:51.360
that sense, it's chartruth. So
I just kept saying I was like,

263
00:16:51.399 --> 00:16:56.240
Shartooth's on the loose with going into
filming. This is honestly the most stressful

264
00:16:56.240 --> 00:17:00.720
part for me because, like I
said, I got cast very very late

265
00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:03.600
in the game, before leaving for
filming and production call. They're like,

266
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:07.799
so you need two of the same
outfit because you'll be wearing one and then

267
00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:11.559
the other one will stay with the
wardrobe department and you know they'll steam it,

268
00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:14.200
clean it, and like you'll always
have a clean one, and then

269
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:18.039
you know one can be taken care
of. But no one just naturally has

270
00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:22.599
two of the exact same thing in
their wardrobe already. So I had to

271
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:26.279
go out and like five bunch of
different outfits. I had very little time

272
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:29.400
to do that. I got that
dress honestly, an Express and great,

273
00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:32.559
you know, shot to Express for
their express shipping because I like overnight it

274
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:36.079
and that was the one I yeah, I landed on. It worked out

275
00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:38.119
nicely because it was so bright and
I feel like my parents could very easily

276
00:17:38.200 --> 00:17:42.000
see me like various shots on the
floor, so it worked out great.

277
00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:45.359
But yeah, you're wearing the same
one. I will admit, though,

278
00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:51.240
I wore that. I wore that
exact same dress the entire time because one

279
00:17:51.319 --> 00:17:53.559
it never got dirty and two,
I mean, yeah, they like steamed

280
00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:56.160
it and everything like that, but
I just kept wearing the same one because

281
00:17:56.200 --> 00:18:00.839
I'm very, very superstitious and it
is working out for me. So I

282
00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:04.599
just kept that same dress on the
entire time, Okay, Jacqueline. Two

283
00:18:04.680 --> 00:18:11.599
quick questions here, Number one.
After this being the inaugural season of The

284
00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:15.920
Floor, they're obviously going to make
some tweaks. I think they probably will.

285
00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:18.559
What would you change? Number one? What would you change about the

286
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:25.960
floor to make it better? And
number two? What did potential gamers to

287
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:30.359
contestants see and learn from season one
of the Floor that will help them with

288
00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:34.039
their strategy when they become contestants in
the future. So what would you change

289
00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:37.359
about it? And what did the
public learn about how to play the game?

290
00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:48.359
Great question. I don't know if
I would necessarily change anything too much

291
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:51.240
from the layout of the rules,
because I also think like that's what makes

292
00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:53.359
it so interesting. I will say, I feel like I've seen some,

293
00:18:55.240 --> 00:19:00.799
you know, comments that I shouldn't
have won because I only won so many

294
00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:03.519
duels, right, I only won
three in comparison to some of the quote

295
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:08.319
unquote whales and maybe like six seven, yes exactly, Gene. Gene won

296
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:12.279
so many duels, so I can
see from some people's perspective it's like they

297
00:19:12.279 --> 00:19:15.880
would want that affected in the rules. I guess my counter argument to that

298
00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:18.599
though, and what makes this game
so unique in a lot of ways,

299
00:19:18.640 --> 00:19:23.400
It's like there were other there were
many opportunities for people to challenge me,

300
00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:27.039
and they just chose not to.
You know, I was never, for

301
00:19:27.079 --> 00:19:30.920
the most part, like completely insularted
my little cat in my corner, and

302
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:34.039
no one could challenge me. They
just chose not to. So I feel

303
00:19:34.079 --> 00:19:37.960
like that, really though, does
you know, affect kind of how the

304
00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:41.319
game is played, because you're choosing
who you want to go against. That's

305
00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:45.480
just so much part of it.
So but I could see potential rules changing

306
00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:49.200
with that, and I think they
might just have more rules around what you

307
00:19:49.319 --> 00:19:53.000
can, like the name and what
counts as correct because I think there were

308
00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:56.519
some instances where, you know,
it was they showed an image of like

309
00:19:56.559 --> 00:20:00.960
a honeydew and I think they said
cantalope, but like the image was like

310
00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:03.759
too close. Things like that,
Like it gets a little you know,

311
00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:11.160
subjective there. I think strategy or
how future people if they you know,

312
00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:14.920
get cast on the floor. The
strategies, I would just say, again,

313
00:20:15.079 --> 00:20:18.000
really pay attention to like your timing
and how much you pass. I

314
00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:22.799
think that had a major impact on
a lot of the duels, and it

315
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:26.759
really comes down to split seconds like
you saw some of I mean US States

316
00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:30.160
for example. What one of my
favorite duels of the entire show is just

317
00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:33.319
ping pong back and forth, like
nobody got a question wrong, which is

318
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:37.640
crazy, But what it comes down
to is that one little breath. It's

319
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:42.240
that extra like or before you say
something right, So like practicing just being

320
00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:48.119
as quick as humanly possible, because
it's not who gets the answer correct first,

321
00:20:48.359 --> 00:20:52.559
it's just it's you. It's you
against yourself and your own clock.

322
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:56.279
You'll practicing on that jack when we
have a trivia guru on our show,

323
00:20:56.440 --> 00:21:00.319
Mike Siroy. In fact, he
won the Dallas Observer Radio Host Year in

324
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:03.839
twenty twenty two. Oh my gosh, a couple of things. I think

325
00:21:03.880 --> 00:21:07.240
they should bring you back to defend
your championship in season two. But my

326
00:21:07.319 --> 00:21:11.519
real question is did you make enough
connections with the production staff there that you

327
00:21:11.519 --> 00:21:15.400
could put in a good word.
We want Mike on the floor in season

328
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:19.240
two. Oh yes, I will, I will put out the best word

329
00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:22.920
ever. Let's get you on the
floor. And I mean I would love

330
00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:26.920
to come back for another season and
if there's like a floor all stars eventually

331
00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:30.079
down the line with multiple winners,
we need eighty one seasons, Jacqueline.

332
00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:34.880
Yeah, we're ways away, like
a Condemns floor. Yeah, you know,

333
00:21:34.960 --> 00:21:40.279
just a little quadrant the ultimate goatlet. But I would love to participate

334
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:44.480
again. It was such an amazing
experience and just fun, Like I'm a

335
00:21:44.559 --> 00:21:47.160
huge game show nerd, and just
it brought out the competitive I mean,

336
00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:49.839
I'm always competitive, but it really
brought out that side and let me kind

337
00:21:49.839 --> 00:21:55.960
of flex my strategic skills. So
all in all, just lifetime experience.

338
00:21:56.000 --> 00:21:59.039
You're cool, Jacqueline, thank you
for jumping on with us. Jacqueline Kenny,

339
00:21:59.079 --> 00:22:02.039
the winner of season one one of
the floor. Thank you the lovely

340
00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:07.640
guest. You're a lovely guest.
All right, we'll talk you down the

341
00:22:07.680 --> 00:22:14.799
road when she defends her crown maybe
in floor two. Freak addition, I

342
00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:19.079
was, that's cool. The true
answer should be the final two people have

343
00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:25.960
a best of three and they illuminate
the entire floor with every category randomizer again

344
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:30.680
choosing the three categories. I agree
the true King or Queen of the floor.

345
00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:37.359
Jacqueline cool, good job Jack Lady
enjoy congratulations. Dingo's morning news,

346
00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:41.200
how well did Dune to do at
the box? And who knew that a

347
00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:47.240
Netherlands Ladies track record was set by
a mouse. Next
