However, there was also something that he did not like about the episode. Even though it was all in good humor, it made sense for Dahmen to be worried about his reputation among fans. If he wished to share anything that wasn’t included in the show, he said, “I actually believe I’m good at golf. Like, I’m not this self-deprecating.” However, fans liked the fact that they got to know Dahmen better as a person.
