00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: I wish you could have heard, uh, the conversation that

4
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: existed for about a minute and a half before the

Speaker 1: podcast started. It's Ashley just screaming into a mic a

6
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 1: thousand different opinions about listen to your Heart. But we're

7
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: gonna save it because we need to bottle all of

8
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,400

Speaker 1: that we have a lot to talk about when it

15
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,760

00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: only best. First off, how are you doing? Uh? And

17
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: how is your dad doing? Your dad is a a doctor.

18
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: He's an anesthesy stesiologist. Why I had a hard time

19
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: saying that today. He's a big deal in his profession.

20
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: I know he has been self isolating, quarantine himself in

21
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: the basement, and it was hard for you last week?

22
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: How is that going? Just catch us up. Well, my

23
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:22,839
Speaker 1: dad is amazing. He is the head of his group,

24
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,199
Speaker 1: his anesthes a group, so he hasn't really been um,

25
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:31,199
Speaker 1: really indirect contact with with corona um patients at the hospital.

26
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 1: But there are like a hundred and fifty at his

27
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: hospital right now. Um, they're sending more of the younger guys,

28
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: anyone who's like not at high risk. My dad's you know,

29
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: sixty four, um. But he is the president of his group,

30
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: so he makes decisions um on behalf of the whole

31
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: anesthesiology group of over like a hundred people, and of

32
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: course coordinates with the hospital. So that's what's really you know,

Speaker 1: the big stuff on his plate right now. Lots of

34
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,800

61
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: about listen to your heart. But before we get started, Ashley,

62
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: let's take one break and when we come back, there's

63
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: some hot topics in Bachelor Nation that I know we're

64
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: dying to discuss. Hey, we'll be back with the almost

65
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: famous podcast first episode of Listen to Your Heart Bachelor

66
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: trending topics. Hey, before we bring on our very special

67
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: guests who are going to talk to us about the

68
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: new show that The Bachelor's created, Listen to Your Art,

69
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 1: We're gonna go through some of these topics that are

70
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: heating up the news line. Chris Harrison Denice Kelly's claim

71
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: that Bachelor producers locked her in a closet for three hours.

72
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: If you remember the reference that happened on our Podcasting

73
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: in Depth podcast with Peter Weber, she mentioned that Bachelor

74
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: producers locked her in her closet, Um, Ashley, what do

75
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: we know? Well, I know that when she said that

76
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: on the podcast last week, that she was referring to

77
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 1: an i TM to an interview room. You know, they're

78
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 1: usually small, padded rooms, UM, that you sit in for

79
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: sometimes hours doing an interview with And she was saying

80
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: that they strategically put her in the interview room UM

81
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: at certain times that she couldn't interrupt, and they kept

82
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: her in there longer so that, you know, she wouldn't

83
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 1: have as much time with Peter. I understood what she

84
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: was saying, and I could have clarified during the podcast episode,

85
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: and I know you could have two been but I

86
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: guess we didn't. We were kind of really excited to

87
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: have Kelly on there. We didn't want her to stop

88
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 1: talking or to you, like we were kind of like

89
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 1: calling her out at all. So what Chris is saying

90
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 1: is correct. Chris ends up saying that Kelly, of course,

91
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,159
Speaker 1: was not locked into a closet. What she must have

92
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: been referring to in that moment would have been an

93
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: interview room, which you know sometimes like a happened in

94
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: like um walk in closet type rooms. It wasn't even know.

95
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: It wasn't even like, hey, I don't want her to

96
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 1: stop talking. As much as I think both of us

97
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: were like, hey, we know what she's referring to. This

98
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: isn't this isn't like, this isn't even a thing. I

99
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: didn't even catch it because I was like, oh, when

100
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: she says closet, she's just like saying a room. It

101
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: wasn't like an actually like closet area. I get it.

102
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: I get why she said it. I understand why Chris

103
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: Harrison wanted to give some clarity to the whole situation.

104
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: She wasn't locked in the closet, she was locked in

105
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: a room. Hey, Bachelor at waste production options amid uncertainty

106
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: over Claire Crawley season. Obviously, with the COVID nineteen sweeping

107
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: over the globe, the Bachelor has paused production on The Bachelor,

108
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: which should be filming right now, Ashley, as the Bachelor

109
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: producers come out and say Bachelorette is weighing options, what

110
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: do they mean. Yeah, they're thinking about renting out a

111
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: whole entire resort for about five weeks during July and August. Um,

112
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 1: it would be kind of like Bachelor in Paradise or

113
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: Bachelor Winter Games as far as the size of the

114
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: production and the size of the resort. And when I

115
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: heard this, I go, oh, five weeks of filming. That's

116
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,799
Speaker 1: about three weeks less than what the normal Bachelor Bachelor

117
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 1: I would get, which made me a little bit sad

118
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: for Claire. But then I started thinking, Okay, well, if

119
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: you cut out the travel time, and you cut out

120
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: all the time so you have to like walk around

121
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: and shoot footage looking pretty in a foreign city, um,

122
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: you're actually probably going to get just as much time

123
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: with the guys as you would during your normal season.

124
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: So I have the opinion of this as somebody who's

125
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: been the Bachelor before. There's nothing that sounds better to

126
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: me than at five hours expedit experience. I am happy

127
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: for Claire. She's gonna be able to feel and see

128
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 1: and experience the things that she wants to while at

129
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: the same time not having a bunch of the dragging,

130
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: tiresome weeks that typically exists. So I think this is

131
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: a great idea. So even in l A, when you

132
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: have dates in l A, you gotta get ready, you

133
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: go take the limo like an hour hour and a half.

134
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: That's travel. Then there's a whole bunch of hurry up

135
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: and wait. And I do think that doing it at

136
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: one resort is going to take away a lot of

137
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: the stress and travel and she could be more well arrested. Yeah,

138
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: I like it uh that that. I do feel like

139
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: this is a a pro uh for Claire. I would

140
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: love to see this happen, and I would also be

141
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: intrigued to see what kind of connections can be made

142
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: in five weeks. Who knows. I mean with Claire, she's emotional,

143
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: she wants to find somebody. I don't think it's you know,

144
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: a crazy idea that she could find her match in

145
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: five weeks. Honestly, if it's if it is like Paradise,

146
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: there's been more successful couples of ratio wise coming on Paradise,

147
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: right the main franchise. Speaking of Paradise, an investigation into

148
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: whether or not Bachelor in Paradise is happening this year.

149
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 1: We don't know, but Cosmopolitan has an article that says, Hey,

150
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: we wonder if Bachelor in Paradise can even exist with

151
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 1: the current environment that we have. Yeah, so you guys

152
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 1: can go and read the Cosmo article. There's no there's

153
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: like no facts about it. It's all speculation and based

154
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: off of my reading of it and the fact that

155
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 1: they're probably going to be filming The Bachelorette in July

156
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,079
Speaker 1: and August and it will be airing in the fall,

157
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: makes me feel like this Paradise is definitely not going

158
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: to happen because if Claire's season starts um airing in September,

159
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: so it'll air from through September to you know, let's

160
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: say late October, early November or something like that, UM,

161
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 1: and then normally The Bachelor starts filming in late September

162
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to forego or delay a

163
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: Bachelor season in lieu of having a Bachelor in Paradise season.

164
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: I think we're going the bus. This an assumption on

165
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: my part looking at the timeline. I think they're going

166
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 1: to have to resume Bachelor in Paradise. And the thing is,

167
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: you're going to have one season of the Bachelorette um

168
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: to choose from when it comes to the guys part

169
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: of the cast, and then you're gonna have two seasons

170
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 1: of the Bachelor's Girls for Bachelor in Paradise, which means

171
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: that the cast will be amazing um as far as

172
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: like drama e quality goes. But it's going to be

173
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: really hard for the girls to get cast on that

174
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: show because there's gonna be such a selection to choose from. Yeah,

175
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I think, and there's so many great women

176
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: for the Paradise show, uh, coming off a Peters season

177
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: that I don't think we're gonna have any trouble kind

178
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: of recruiting them to be here next year as well.

179
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: I think we have a deep cast. Who it really

180
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: really hurts is uh the Hannah's season of men. I

181
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: think they might get pushed the side because I have

182
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 1: a feeling that the Clear season will be great. Hey, uh,

183
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: this is a big headline one that we've watched. Uh,

184
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: there's the rest of these are massive. Um. Chris Harrison said,

185
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: Hannah Brown has been shipping herself with Tyler Cameron for

186
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: quite some time. Well, Chris has obviously, uh not been

187
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: shy during this Quarantine He's been out talking to people

188
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: and promoting the show and and doing his live show,

189
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: and I've enjoyed it. I enjoy seeing him and Lauren together.

190
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 1: But he does say that Hannah Brown has been shipping.

191
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 1: This Is this a positive comment? Where is this coming from?

192
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 1: It's a positive comment. He basically said, it looks like

193
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: things are working out for them. I'm not going to

194
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 1: define their relationship for them. I don't exactly know what's

195
00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: going on, but based on the looks of it, I'm

196
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: happy for her because as this is something that I've

197
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: I've known that she's been wanting for a while. Next

198
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: topic is how there Cameron says stranger showed up as

199
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: his house from Hawaii hoping to join Quarantine crew. Yeah,

200
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 1: this is pretty weird. Yeah, explain, I mean we saw

201
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 1: that on Instagram stories. I was falling along. I don't

202
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: know how they found his address, nor do I understand

203
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 1: why they thought they were invited in. I never saw

204
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 1: the person. So explain what we saw an experience in

205
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: what we think this was. So of course, we've seen

206
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: Tyler and Hannah and the quarantine crew putting a lot

207
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: of content out on social media on TikTok, and it

208
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: seems like someone figure out its address and people and

209
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: it's and it's out there for some woman from Hawaii

210
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: to fly during a time like this to Florida, stand

211
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,719
Speaker 1: outside his house by the fence, I think, and with

212
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: her dog in two suitcases, asked to be invited into

213
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 1: the quarantine crewse house. Truly nuts. Tyler, of course goes

214
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 1: on to kind of like beg his following for a

215
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: little bit more privacy and respect. It was also interesting

216
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: that Tyler said that his brother called him to tell

217
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: him what was going on at their house, which begs

218
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: the question where was Tyler? Yeah, it does beg the question.

219
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: I mean, here's the thing is, all of us who

220
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: have been on the show have had experiences, uh that

221
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 1: we either talk about or don't talk about, that we

222
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: share or choose not to share. It's not uncommon for

223
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: people to show up or people to sit outside of

224
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: a house. Um, it just feels like now more than

225
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: narrow ever, we're highlighting when this happens, and especially during

226
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: the current during a quarantine time. I don't know why

227
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,559
Speaker 1: they showed up at what their expectations were, but it

228
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: happ been um but not crazy. I mean, Tyler is

229
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: not the only one that has happened to, but Colton

230
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: Underwood might be the only person this has happened to.

231
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: Colton has been in the headlines recently, um, multiple times,

232
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 1: I mean the last two weeks. Think about the stories

233
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: that we've seen Colton's name pop up. He uh, he's

234
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: been around. It says Cassie Randolph gave Colton Underwood a

235
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: quarantine haircut, and it's really something we saw pictures. There's

236
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: zero chance that this wasn't on purpose. So I don't

237
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: get why this is a story. Oh well, first off,

238
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,439
Speaker 1: I think the photos are photo shopped. If you guys

239
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 1: go to Colton's Instagram, type in Colton haircut into into Google,

240
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: you'll see what we're talking about. He's basically has the

241
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,439
Speaker 1: old man haircut. Where the hair the Homer Simpson, you

242
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: know where the hair only oh, it's not Homer, but

243
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: you know that haircut that dads have because the only

244
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: grow hair on George Costanza. There you go, perfect, perfect.

245
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: His hair looks like George Costanza right now. But I

246
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: believe it's photoshopped. The funny thing is, since this haircut

247
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 1: was documented on Instagram, not in its entirely Okay, Basically,

248
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: they show how bad Cassie is with the with the

249
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: scissors or what is it called what was the little

250
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: shavers called trimmers, So they show how bad she is

251
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: with it, and then he comes with this very photoshop

252
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: looking picture, uh, showing his bald head with the hair

253
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: on the sides. And since they posted this, I think

254
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: it's like five days ago. Colton hasn't showed himself on

255
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 1: his Instagram on on Cassie's Instagram without the top of

256
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: his head blocked by an emoji or something, and everything

257
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: else that he's posted on his Instagram has been prerecorded,

258
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: so we'll see if it's an actual haircut or not.

259
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: But I don't think so he does this for fun

260
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 1: for yeah, of course. Yeah. Well I saw that he

261
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 1: claimed that it is real, so like he is claiming

262
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: that it's real. Here's my thought is if it is

263
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: like you would have had to take a straight razor

264
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: to make it that shiny and smooth, like he would

265
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: have had to shave that to the scalp. And so

266
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know what's going on here,

267
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: uh except that, yeah, if it's photoshop and he's claiming

268
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 1: it's real, then you know, is it a headline? Is

269
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: it just supposed to be funny? Who knows? But it's

270
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 1: it happened Batchel Nation. It's now time for us to

271
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 1: break down the very first episode of Listen to Your Heart.

272
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: And who better to do it well than one of

273
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: DAT Nation's most favorite people, Ashley I can Eddie, Oh,

274
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: you're a part of this too, Come on, it's it's

275
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: the first week, first episode ever of The Bachelor Listen

276
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: to Your Heart. Ashley and I were very pessimistic when

277
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: it comes to our expectations for this show. We thought,

278
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, we really got to talk about this,

279
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: but once again, the Bachelor surprises us. Chris Harrison and

280
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: the Bachelor crew. I would say I'm going to give

281
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: it a on a scale of A to F. Actually

282
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it a B. But I think you

283
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: might have a little stronger opinion and I want to

284
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: hear why. Okay, well I'm gonna say the b plus now,

285
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: I'm not going to give it an a yet, but

286
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: I just really enjoy these characters seemed very warm right

287
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: off the bat, like I was really connecting to them quickly.

288
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 1: Of course, during packages, I was like, still can't believe

289
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: I'm watching this, And I want to be honest with

290
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: you guys about um how hesitant I was towards this show,

291
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: because I think that a lot of you out there

292
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 1: listening to this may not have watched it, and I

293
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: want you guys to go on Hulu and give it

294
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: a whirl because it's the previews don't do it justice.

295
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 1: I just love the fact I don't. I can't exactly

296
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: put my finger on it, but it gives me the

297
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: feelings that American Idol used to where like somebody opens

298
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 1: their mouth and sings and you're like, oh my god,

299
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: goose bumps, and then it gives you the the relationships

300
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 1: and the romance that you want from the Bachelor. So

301
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: it's a really fun um melting pot for me. That's right. Actually,

302
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the next chapter in the Bachelor

303
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 1: franchise history. It's gonna it's gonna be something we talked

304
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 1: about for the next few weeks. It's gonna be something

305
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: we break down. Uh. One of the things that they

306
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 1: intro from the very beginning is they're really leveraging the

307
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: celebrity guests that will be on this show, from Jason

308
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: Mraz to Kesha to Tony Braxon to and Andy Grammer

309
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: to Pat Mona, Haan, Ashley Simpson, Ross, Evan Ross, Rita

310
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 1: Wilson Jewel and I mean, they got a huge list

311
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: of celebrities and musicians come on and do this. So

312
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,959
Speaker 1: I read all of this weeks in advance and I thought, Okay,

313
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 1: is this is gonna be, uh, you know, like kind

314
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: of like a voice Um type show. We're just gonna

315
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 1: be seeing the whole time. But there was the element

316
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: of love thrown in, and so far it's worked, right.

317
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 1: I mean, love really was the storyline and in at

318
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: least in the first episode. Music, in my opinion, took

319
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: a back seat, even though it was there, but it

320
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: took a back seat to the love. Oh yeah, So

321
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,439
Speaker 1: that's why I think you guys are gonna like it

322
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: more than you think you are, Because the previews show

323
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: like a lot of it seems corny. It seems really

324
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 1: really cheesy. But then when you watch the first episode,

325
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, this is just like watching Bachelor in Paradise,

326
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 1: and I'm starting to learn about these people and I'm

327
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: getting to know them quickly, and I'm attaching myself to

328
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: my favorites quickly. Actually, So let's walk through this for

329
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: a few minutes on what we saw on the show.

330
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 1: From your experience as not only a music fan but

331
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: also some body who has participated in multiple Bachelor's shows,

332
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,400
Speaker 1: Let's walk through what you think is going on here.

333
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 1: First off, we meet, uh, the twenty single men and women.

334
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: The one thing that I did not enjoy, which I

335
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: get why, is most first episodes we really get to

336
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 1: know everybody that's showing up to the mansion. We definitely

337
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: did not get to know that now, Like it felt

338
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: like they were rushing in characters at the very end,

339
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: being like, and here's this person, and here's this person

340
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: without really ever getting to know them. It was very

341
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,679
Speaker 1: clear to me who was going to be staying and

342
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: who was going to be going after the first episode

343
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: based on who they were showing, very very clear was

344
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: anybody eliminated from the group of people that had packages.

345
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: I don't think so, and normally we see packages from

346
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 1: people who are eliminated Night one. I agree, Yeah, I

347
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: mean that's the thing is they haven't yet, I don't

348
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: think figured out the character development. It felt like they

349
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 1: had too many people, uh for a first night, especially

350
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: with the format that they're trying to do it in. Uh.

351
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: Here's the thing we lost. Probably the one character I

352
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: was most intrigued by when it comes to just entertainment

353
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 1: was the dude with a funny guy that was like

354
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: just cringe E Like cringe is the best way to say.

355
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,360
Speaker 1: I wanted him around a little bit more, just because

356
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 1: I thought he was going to add an element of like, uh, intrigue.

357
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 1: But here's the part that they're going to struggle with,

358
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: which is the same thing they struggled with it Winner Games.

359
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 1: Was drama will will not come from competition within the house.

360
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 1: It seems like it's going to come from inside relationships,

361
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 1: Like there'll be relational drama, but there won't be I

362
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 1: don't like you. I don't like you, which I actually,

363
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,679
Speaker 1: as a viewer appreciate more because I don't want to

364
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: see two people fighting. It's not fun for me. I'd

365
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: rather see the drama come from Hey I love you

366
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: or I like you and you don't like me. Totally,

367
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: that's gonna be the only drama, and that is my

368
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: favorite kind of drama. Yeah, it is. Well, so we

369
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: see all them, we see every show. To the mansion,

370
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 1: Chris Harrison introduces himself. He introduces the show. We have

371
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: as an idea of what the show is gonna be,

372
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 1: it's gonna Can I just say that before watching this episode,

373
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,199
Speaker 1: I think you and I both agree that we were like,

374
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 1: how did Chris do this show? I can't believe Chris

375
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: agreed to do this show. And then I watched it

376
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, now I get it. Yeah,

377
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 1: I mean I I do believe his role on this

378
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 1: show will be even smaller than it is in the

379
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: Batchlo and Batchelor, right, but it works that he's there.

380
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: H So all the contestants show up. Chris Harrison introduces himself.

381
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 1: The mansion is wide open. Uh. We we understand the

382
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 1: concept of the show is it's gonna be a dating

383
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: show to pursue love through music and to highlight a

384
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: bunch of really talented musicians. One of the things that

385
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: we learned very quickly was that there's gonna be musicians

386
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,199
Speaker 1: from all different genres of music and different talent levels,

387
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: different different experience, et cetera. But there were a few

388
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: people that really stood out to me. Actley, I know

389
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: the people that sit up to you and and we'll

390
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 1: save I think your favorite uh for you to announce

391
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 1: here as I throw to you because we have him

392
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: on the podcast today. Actually, somebody I really appreciate it

393
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 1: and enjoyed was Gabe. I don't think Gabe got enough play.

394
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: I really want to see more of ja of Gabe.

395
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 1: I think he's a good looking dude. He seemed nice,

396
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: but we just didn't see a lot of him. Another

397
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 1: one that stood out to me, I think was Trevor.

398
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 1: I was a Trevor fan. I think he showed himself

399
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,199
Speaker 1: to care, which is big. And the finally, the one

400
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 1: that stood out to me was Jamie. I think Jamie

401
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: is is definitely gonna struggle because she's gonna get the

402
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: most attention from the guys. I think that's gonna be

403
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 1: hard for her. But those are three that stood out

404
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: to me right away. What about you, Yeah, I was

405
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: definitely thinking that Jamie. The way that they edit her

406
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,360
Speaker 1: from her package to being the first one in the

407
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: mansion that she is definitely going to be one of

408
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: the major players of this season. And I think that

409
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 1: the love triangle between her, Trevor and Ryan is going

410
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 1: to be the biggest storyline. I think she's gonna go

411
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: back and forth a lot um. It definitely seemed like

412
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: she had the most physical chemistry with Trevor, but I

413
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,199
Speaker 1: think she's going to have more of an emotional connection

414
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 1: with Ryan throughout the weeks. What do you think? I mean,

415
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 1: I just don't see how Ryan sticks around for that. Like,

416
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like Ryan's the type of guy that's

417
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 1: gonna just like get He's not going to be broken

418
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 1: up with ones and want to come back into the mix.

419
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 1: And if he does, I think you're gonna see a

420
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 1: lot of heartbreak come alongside of it. I mean, here's

421
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 1: the thing. Actually, you're a big Ryan fan, and we

422
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: have Ryan on the huge Ryan fan guy. Ryan will

423
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: be coming on Ryan Neal from the Bachelor Nation Listened

424
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: to Your Heart will be coming on the almost famous

425
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: famous podcast today. Later on the episode, we'll talk to

426
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 1: him about everything Listen to your Heart, You guys, I

427
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: feel like Ryan is the guy. And I'm going to

428
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: keep bringing up my obsession with American Idol because like

429
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: it was real big chapter in my life. Guys, like

430
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: it was my life. It was what made me look

431
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: for like every week was I got a present on

432
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: Tuesdays and one days Wednesdays back in the day because

433
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 1: of American Idol and getting to see my favorite perform.

434
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: It was just a present. And now I feel like

435
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,439
Speaker 1: watching Ryan perform is going to be kind of the

436
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: same way, Like I just love that kind of voice

437
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 1: that he has, and there's like a certain drama and

438
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: uh like Broadway appeal to him that I also am

439
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 1: really into. So yeah, big big Ryan supporter over here.

440
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 1: And of course I understand the appeal that Trevor has.

441
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: At the beginning of the episode, I was like, Oh,

442
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 1: Trevor's the hot guy in the house. I got it,

443
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 1: Trevor's talk guy. Everybody's gonna want to be with Trevor.

444
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 1: And then I got to know Ryan Moore and hear

445
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 1: his voice and I was like, oh no, no, never mind,

446
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 1: dark Horse right there, and uh and Katie Perry uh

447
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 1: was once in love with Trevor. If you remember that

448
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,239
Speaker 1: a few years ago on American idol. Uh Trevor was

449
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,679
Speaker 1: the man who made headlines because Katy Perry made it

450
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 1: very clear that she thought he is uh something something else. Well, Ashley,

451
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: are our listeners will have now watched uh the episode. Uh,

452
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: they have now processed if they like it or not.

453
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: UM and and there isn't a lot of behind the

454
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 1: scenes right now. This is like every season. It's the

455
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: first episode. We we know we're getting out of it. Now.

456
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,040

Speaker 1: hoping they can look forward to for the rest of

458
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: the season. What what storylines are you watching? What things

459
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:33,640
Speaker 1: are you engaging into? What drama are you possibly interested in?

460
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: Before we bring Ryan on the podcast. I think there's

461
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: not gonna be a ton of movement with the couples.

462
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: I'd say like maybe two or three couples move around.

463
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 1: I think that Jamie is probably going to get some

464
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: news next week that Trevor is kind of a player

465
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: and the kind of guy who has cheated in the past.

466
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: And she said that she was, you know, always with

467
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 1: cheaters in her relationships and it was something that she

468
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 1: was trying to get away from. UM. I think she's

469
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: gonna try to get back with Ryan, and we'll see

470
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 1: how that goes because Ryan is now with Rudy if

471
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 1: you call it, with Rudy having gotten her rose. I

472
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: think other couples to watch out for include Julia and

473
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 1: and Sheridan. I really liked them. They were cool. Sheridan

474
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:34,679
Speaker 1: seems like super sweet melon Gabe. I think Gabe has

475
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: a great voice. Can't wait to hear from more from him.

476
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 1: Same with Brie and Chris. We heard Chris at the

477
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 1: piano a lot, and he's awesome, but we still haven't

478
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: heard breathing yet. And she said that she was going

479
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:51,640
Speaker 1: to try to woo him with her voice. And let's

480
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: see one other couples. We don't know much about Becca

481
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,919
Speaker 1: and Danny at all. They totally flew under the radar

482
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 1: in this episode. And then we got to see what

483
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 1: happens with Matt, because Matt was with Rudy the entire

484
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 1: episode until she totally called him out on basically having

485
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: bad bachelor behavior because the guy spoke too soon about

486
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:16,880
Speaker 1: the moves that he was going to make. As far

487
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 1: as who's going to take on the date, and we

488
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: see Cheyenne, who we didn't get to know at all,

489
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: pick Matt. So there's gonna be a couple of people

490
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 1: in the house that we don't know who They're going

491
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 1: to end up with a couple of singles floating in there. Well,

492
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: just give a quick quick overview here the couple's coming

493
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 1: out of this episode where Savannah uh and Brandon, mel

494
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 1: and Gay, Becca, Danny Bree, Chris Cheyenne, Matt, Julia Sheridan,

495
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: Jamie Trevor, Rudy, Ryan Well, Ashley. Final question for you

496
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: as this season continues, how much of it do you

497
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: want to see the love stories? And how much of

498
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 1: it do you want to see music? Uh? And then

499
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,640
Speaker 1: at the same token, how many of these people are

500
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 1: legitimately talented musicians? Because you do know music well and

501
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,679
Speaker 1: you love music well. How many of these people do

502
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 1: you believe are very talented? I think there are probably

503
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 1: twenty of people in the house that are very talented,

504
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: Like not the kind of talent you're going to see

505
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 1: at your local pub playing on a Saturday night. You know.

506
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 1: I think there's a couple i'd say exceptional talent amongst

507
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 1: this crew. I would agree. Well, Hey, to sum it up,

508
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 1: Ashley and I both will continue watching Listen to your heart.

509
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 1: Uh we uh I can't say I am a fan yet,

510
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: actually would say she's a fan. I'd say I'm on

511
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 1: just walk in the line between Hey, this is gonna

512
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: be good or hey, I don't know yet. But most

513
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: people I've talked to you have really enjoyed the show.

514
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: They've they've actually really bought in and found it entertaining.

515
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: And what better time to explore a new kind of

516
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: binge show than during a time that we're all in

517
00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: self isolation. I mean it works out well. Hey, Actually, actually,

518
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 1: you and I can talk about Listen to your Heart

519
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 1: all day. We can go back and forth on expectations

520
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: on what we assume is going to happen, on the

521
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: love stories that might exist. But I mean, who better

522
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: to talk to than Ryan Neil. You're, you know, one

523
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: of yours, one of my favorites, one of Bachelor Nation's favorites.

524
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 1: Let's bring him on the podcast. Right after the break.

525
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 1: We're gonna have Ryan Neil talking everything Listen to your Heart,

526
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: all right, guys, I'm very very stoked we have Ryan

527
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: Neil on the podcast. I was so excited. I've looked

528
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: at our rundown yesterday and I thought that we had

529
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: the guy from Idol um, you know, Oh my god,

530
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: what was his? What's his? Trevor? I thought Trevor was

531
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: on the podcast today and I was like, oh, okay, doh,

532
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: we have Trevor. That makes sense, like he was on

533
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: American Idol ABC, Like they're going to throw that one

534
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: in first. But then I saw like an hour ago

535
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 1: that we had Ryan, and I was like, Oh my god,

536
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna fan girl so hard right now? Hi, Ryan,

537
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, don't you want the energy? Am I

538
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: overwhelming for you? No? No No, no, it's uh, it's it's

539
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 1: welcoming for sure, you know, being cooped up, not being

540
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 1: able to talk to too many people, not like a

541
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: zoom caller, so you know, a zoom caller. Okay, yeah, Um.

542
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 1: We're gonna get into the way that you like being

543
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: alone a little bit later, but right now, we're recording

544
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: this on Monday, guys, you know, we get the screeners. Um.

545
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 1: I want to tell Ryan that his life is going

546
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 1: to change in a matter of hours. How do you

547
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: feel about that? Yeah, I'm ready for everything. I think.

548
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if I'm truly ready

549
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: for I mean, you guys would know better than I do,

550
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 1: for sure. But um, yeah, I mean, whatever whatever comes

551
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 1: of it, what do you expect tonight to look like

552
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 1: for you on social media? You know, obviously I think

553
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 1: I'll probably get more allowers. I've already kind of started,

554
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 1: um to see that increase a little bit, So probably

555
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: that probably more d M s and you know, weird

556
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 1: weird d m s and whatnot. So yeah, now do

557
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 1: you do you know how many girls are going to

558
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: be tweeting at you and at Jamie that she made

559
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: a horrendous decision in picking Trevor over you. I mean, yeah,

560
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: we'll see. I don't know it was it a horndous

561
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: decision though. It was a horrendous decision, and I hope

562
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 1: that we get to see her admit to this mistake

563
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: later in the season. I'm sure we will. But I

564
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: just got to talk to you about your amazing Actually, yeah,

565
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: why was it a horrendous decision? Because Ryan is just

566
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: seems like the genuine nice guy. They had a great

567
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: like conversation flow. I felt comfortable for her are talking

568
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: to you. I felt a little bit nervous when she

569
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: was talking to Trevor. I'm thinking that Trevor is like

570
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: he's just he's got player written all over him. He's

571
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 1: too smooth, but like you are endearingly smooth, like you

572
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: have it, like you have it Okay, And Trevor is

573
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 1: the kind of guy that you think he's like the

574
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: he's winning the race of course in the beginning, but

575
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 1: you are the ultimate underdog and the far more talented person.

576
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: You are so much more talented than him. I felt

577
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 1: so bad for him when he tries to sing like

578
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: the other John Mayer song after you sing Gravity on

579
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: their date, because you slayed it and he sounded like

580
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: your average guy in a bar like that isn't a star.

581
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 1: That's a smooth guy at a bar. Um did he

582
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: sing a John Mayer song? Oh yeah, Oh you don't

583
00:32:54,080 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 1: even know yet. In private time, you guys are information. Hey, Ryan,

584
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 1: I don't know if you realize this, but Ashley is

585
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: a fan of you. Hey, I'm likewise, Okay, are you

586
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 1: a Bachelor fan? I saw that you said somewhere on

587
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: social media that you were like, I know this is crazy,

588
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 1: but I am now a part of Bachelor Nation. I

589
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 1: said that because I don't want to hurt any feelings here.

590
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 1: But I've I've never seen a full episode prior to

591
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: coming back from the show. I watched like the last

592
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 1: three or four of of Peter season. Um, but that's

593
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 1: not like a knock on the show. I'm not like

594
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 1: a big TV guy in general. Um, to be honest,

595
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 1: like I'll have like Hulu or Netflix sometimes and the

596
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: other times my TV is literally like unplugged. So I'm

597
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: not a big follower of anything in particular. So yeah,

598
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: it was crazy for me to do this. You're the

599
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 1: kind of guy that has a home studio and spends

600
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: all this time in the home studio and you like

601
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 1: being alone with your music. I do, Yeah, I do. Um,

602
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 1: it's a it's a but also like I'm a I'm

603
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: a hermit in some ways, but I love going out

604
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 1: and being with a ton of people and like dancing

605
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 1: and just just letting loose and having fun. So um,

606
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: I'm kind of bipolar in that way. Okay, Um, I

607
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: need to tell you before I like get down to

608
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 1: actual serious questions that the produced. I talked to two

609
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: producers after watching the show, telling them that I really

610
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 1: liked it and I'm gonna I've been honest this entire podcast.

611
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: I didn't expect to like the show. I thought I

612
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 1: was gonna have to watch it for work, but I

613
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 1: truly enjoy it. Is like The Bachelor meets American Idol

614
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: and you, watching you sing in that studio made me

615
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 1: feel like I was watching a contestant on American Idol

616
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: back in American Isles heyday, because there's something different about

617
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,799
Speaker 1: American Isle now. It just doesn't do it the way

618
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 1: it did for me. And like the odds and you

619
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 1: just you're somebody that I got very musically excited over.

620
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: You have the most amazing voice, and you, Um, I'm

621
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: very picky about my music and very picky, right, Okay,

622
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: so I'm very picky about my music. But when I

623
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: do I find a voice that I like, like, I

624
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 1: love it, like I get really passionate over it. So

625
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 1: watching you sing gravity for that first time, like you

626
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: opened your mouth with my mom and I were like,

627
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,920
Speaker 1: holy sh it, this kid, he's got it all right,

628
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: But enough flattery, I just well, actually not not yet.

629
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna cut off yet because I talked to

630
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 1: two producers after the show and one said that when

631
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: she found you at the auditions, she goes, oh wow,

632
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 1: that's like the next Harry Styles and she's she could

633
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 1: be right. Okay, she could be right, and then the

634
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 1: other one said, oh, Ryan, he's such a great guy.

635
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: He's like too way too sweet to be on reality TV.

636
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: So you got two really nice compliments. Awesome, very awesome. Um,

637
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: so tell us about how you got involved in trying

638
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: out for the show. I even heard of it, yeah,

639
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 1: last um, I believe it was last August. I was

640
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 1: just kind of sitting at home and I, you know,

641
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 1: just like had a random comment on one of my

642
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 1: Instagram videos um from someone, and it basically just said, hey,

643
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: you know, I'm part of a team casting for a

644
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 1: new ABC show next year. We think you'd be a

645
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 1: good fit. And I'm like, all right, you know, I

646
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 1: didn't even really pay too much attention to it. I

647
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 1: thought it was gonna be as social media what whatnot.

648
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 1: And so I googled his name and I'm like, oh,

649
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 1: like he had an IMBD pays. I'm like, oh, it

650
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:41,839
Speaker 1: seems legit. So he emailed me um and then next

651
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,320
Speaker 1: thing you know, he's like, hey, where's the nearest market

652
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 1: to you? The nearest like big market and so for

653
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: me being a Detroit person, um, it was Chicago. So

654
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,919
Speaker 1: they're like, hey, can you come out in a few

655
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 1: days to Chicago and you know, meet us up and

656
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 1: see where things go. I'm like, God, for sure. UM.

657
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 1: I had a wedding that weekend up north the Michigan

658
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,240
Speaker 1: My buddy Mike and I came down. It was about

659
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,799
Speaker 1: a six hour drive and met them up in a

660
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:10,760
Speaker 1: hotel room and sang some songs for them, interviewed and

661
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,719
Speaker 1: they're like, hey, would you like would you like to

662
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,880
Speaker 1: come to l A. And to be honest, at that moment,

663
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 1: I had already kind of made it. UM. I was

664
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 1: very proud. I hadn't. I didn't think I would. I

665
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,399
Speaker 1: thought they'd be like people at this hotel and just

666
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 1: like craziness. UM. And they asked me to go to

667
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: l A. And that was a month later. UM went

668
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,320
Speaker 1: out to l A, did that whole thing, interviewed, played

669
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 1: for them. UM. And then a month after that I

670
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: got a call that that I made it. That's awesome. UM.

671
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: I figured that you probably were like, great, Like I

672
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 1: want to get my music out there. This will be

673
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 1: really great for my career. But how did you feel

674
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: about the love component of the show. Yeah, I you know,

675
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,359
Speaker 1: since it was a new concept and it's you know,

676
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,399
Speaker 1: never happened before. UM, I was a little unsure off

677
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,200
Speaker 1: the bat um, just with it being attached to the franchise,

678
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: and I, you know, it's The Bachelors, a part of

679
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 1: American folklore now for the past almost two decades, so

680
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,879
Speaker 1: it's familiar with the concept. But I didn't know how

681
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,319
Speaker 1: this show would work. UM. And I'm at a point

682
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 1: in my life where I was really looking for somebody

683
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: to spend the rest of my life with and hopefully

684
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 1: vibe musically. And that would be cool because I've never

685
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: dated a musician. UM. You know, I thought that would

686
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 1: be great, so I said, why not, UM, and just

687
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 1: kind of went for it. Now, you've been in music

688
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 1: for about nine years, right, UM, I mean I've been playing. Yeah,

689
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: I've been playing most of my life. UM. I started, yeah,

690
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: playing guitar like fifteen years ago, and then kind of

691
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 1: writing songs after and just kind of picking up various

692
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 1: instruments along the way. Has it been how you've made

693
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 1: a living? Um? Not fully yet. So up until this

694
00:38:55,719 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: past December, I was working UM for an optimologist UM

695
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,399
Speaker 1: doing eye testing on patients, so people would come in

696
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,719
Speaker 1: and if they had like black Homer and Maco degeneration.

697
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 1: There's a few different tests for that and I basically

698
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 1: take pictures behind people's eyes. So that's what That's how

699
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,919
Speaker 1: I was making my living for the past few years. Um,

700
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: I got my degree in I T and communications, so

701
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: I've worked in hr UM but all along, you know,

702
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: gigging at night and you know, doing that whole thing.

703
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 1: So it's only been since December that I've really I've

704
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: been doing it full time. You could say, now the

705
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: girl you diated a girl and you broke up recently.

706
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: You were together for two years. Yeah, we broke up

707
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 1: last Um, it would be like fifteen months or something

708
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: like that. Has she reached out to you since finding

709
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 1: out that you were on the show? No, she probably

710
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: will after she sets tonight episode. And then the girls

711
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: that are going to go after you, I don't know.

712
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,840
Speaker 1: We'll see what kind of personality type were you hoping

713
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 1: to find the house. We obviously see that you hit

714
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: it off with Jamie and I'm rooting for you and

715
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,879
Speaker 1: Jamie hard, but um, was there anyone else that had

716
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 1: your eye that first night or was it going to

717
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 1: kind of be Jamie all the way? Yeah? You know

718
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 1: it's funny, I um, well for me, you know, walking

719
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,439
Speaker 1: in the house and with me being the first guy.

720
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: That was a complete trip. I mean I was not

721
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 1: expecting that at all. I was expecting a bunch of

722
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 1: people and walking into almost like a mini party already.

723
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:28,320
Speaker 1: So walk in the place is vacant, and she was

724
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: the first person that I saw, and immediately I had

725
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: a connection with her. Um. You know, physically, she's beautiful,

726
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: she seemed really peppy, outgoing. Um, So that was an

727
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 1: instant attraction for me. And she seemed like a lot

728
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 1: of fun. Um. But there was also you know, as

729
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: as the days went on, Um, I had a connection

730
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,879
Speaker 1: with Rudy as well. She's really cool. We do see

731
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 1: that Rudy gives you the rose at the end of

732
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,640
Speaker 1: the episode, so I'm wondering if that was just a

733
00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 1: platonic rose or that's gonna turn into something. Yeah, well

734
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:06,120
Speaker 1: we'll find out. But um, Rudy, I think myself and

735
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 1: Rudy have such similar musical influences and styles and and um,

736
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: we we've really closely musically. Um. So, so do we

737
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: see people end up like breaking up and getting with

738
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: somebody else because of their chemistry on stage and their

739
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:28,840
Speaker 1: music chemistry versus just like their romantic chemistry in the house.

740
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,760
Speaker 1: Do we see people like changing their yeah, their couples

741
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 1: just because they have better chemistry on stage than they

742
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:40,640
Speaker 1: do with the person that they coupled up with romantically

743
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 1: in the house. Right, Um, I guess you'll have to see. Right,

744
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 1: we've only seen one episode so far. So um, once

745
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 1: the music kind of gets rolling a little bit more,

746
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:54,399
Speaker 1: I think you'll it gets interesting. I can ahead tell

747
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 1: you that for sure. Now I've got another couple of

748
00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 1: questions for you, But first I want to throw it

749
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:03,880
Speaker 1: over to Ben because I can't dominate this interview fully.

750
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,280
Speaker 1: Um right, I really only have a couple of questions

751
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 1: if we could sit down and chat. I mean, so

752
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:13,799
Speaker 1: here's the thing, uh, from very untalented person to very

753
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 1: talented person. I have one question for you. Is it

754
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 1: weird to sit down with somebody typically in your life,

755
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 1: and within the first couple of days of knowing them,

756
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 1: say Hey, I wrote you a song, I'd like to

757
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,239
Speaker 1: play it for you. Or is that a thing that

758
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 1: musicians do? So funny you ask that because I never

759
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 1: liked I've never done that, Like, I've never even with

760
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 1: past relationships, I would never even play them like a

761
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,720
Speaker 1: song one out like one on one. The smaller the crowd,

762
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 1: the more intimidating, the more weird. He's not a jet guys,

763
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: He's not a jed. I was. I've never been the

764
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 1: guy to be like, hey, hear me play, you know,

765
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 1: like that's I shy away from that more than anything.

766
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 1: So um yeah, this was this was a really different

767
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,240
Speaker 1: experience for me, and I didn't know how I would

768
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 1: I would take to it, And that's almost one of

769
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 1: the reasons why. Another reason I did the show is

770
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 1: just to kind of open up more and and learn

771
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 1: more things about myself and push myself in that way

772
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 1: because I'm very closed off in that way and kind

773
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 1: of keep my music to myself. Um my EP is

774
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 1: literally called up my sleeve because I keep you know,

775
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 1: all my feelings and stuff, um just kind of buried

776
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 1: until it's like ready. So um yeah, it was very

777
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,080
Speaker 1: difficult for me off the bat, but I think as

778
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 1: time went on it was um, you know, I learned

779
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 1: more about myseluff and to open up more. Yeah, because

780
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 1: you know, it is the thing I watched and I

781
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: was like, hey, I've never thought about this, and like

782
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: if I knew of one of my friends saying hey,

783
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 1: I wrote my girlfriend a song and I have some

784
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,239
Speaker 1: friends human musicians, Like I think I would even be like,

785
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 1: are you sure, like just let's let's look through this,

786
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: Let's think through this first. But it is the interesting

787
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: thing about this show, was it? I mean, it is

788
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,839
Speaker 1: the show like it opens you up, as actually was saying,

789
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 1: you know, not only is there insane amounts of talent

790
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 1: on this show, but it opens you up with the

791
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 1: environ am to play music for each other, with the

792
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,880
Speaker 1: connection of love, like so so they're so intertwined in

793
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 1: this experience. I think to close off my thoughts and

794
00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 1: I'll just let Ashley kind of take it from here.

795
00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:14,800
Speaker 1: Is uh, Ryan, you know you're you're obviously a smart guy. Uh,

796
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 1: you're talented, You're not. Uh, It's not an isolated to

797
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 1: you here. There's a many smart, talented people on this show.

798
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 1: Uh that we've seen. Was it give us a little

799
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 1: taste because we've we've all been on the show or

800
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:31,320
Speaker 1: Lash and I have. Was it an awkward social environment

801
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: at all? To have all of you artists who typically

802
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 1: hold things closer to your chest, who are also very talented,

803
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 1: living in this house trying to impress each other. Just

804
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 1: give us an idea of what it was like. Living

805
00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 1: in it. Yeah, you know what. UM. To be honest,

806
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,359
Speaker 1: I think it it almost made it easier that we

807
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,560
Speaker 1: all were musicians because that was like an initial an

808
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:54,319
Speaker 1: initial icebreactor. UM. We talked about our influences and like

809
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: where we play are we playing in bars? Were playing

810
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,279
Speaker 1: at clubs? Like you know, do we have a band? Um?

811
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 1: And then once we all start started to sit down

812
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 1: and just kind of jam with one another. It that

813
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: made it so much easier as opposed to UM. You know,

814
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 1: I can't attest for this, but you know on on

815
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,879
Speaker 1: the shows you guys have done where everyone you could

816
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 1: be a dental hygennas, you could be a pilot or

817
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 1: a construction worker. You know, there's no like middle ground. UM.

818
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: So I think it was a little bit easier for

819
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,640
Speaker 1: us to kind of find that initial chemistry UM, you

820
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 1: know myself even with the guys like it was, it

821
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:30,239
Speaker 1: was really cool to have that um companionship UM with

822
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:33,120
Speaker 1: with with everyone there and just kind of talk music.

823
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 1: And that made it a lot easier, especially for the

824
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 1: first night, because I would have been more intimidated if

825
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,839
Speaker 1: we were just kind of like random people thrown together. Ryan,

826
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 1: great job after week one, Uh, I'm a fan of

827
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 1: you as well. I haven't seen actually this giddy since

828
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 1: she kissed her now husband in Paris, So, uh, this

829
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 1: is a lot of fun for me. I love every

830
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:56,959
Speaker 1: second of this. Okay. So I was gonna say, going

831
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 1: off of what you were you were saying, is that

832
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 1: it wasn't awkward for you guys because you had something

833
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 1: to bond over, something in common already. When I saw

834
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 1: your date with Jamie, I was like, this is like

835
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 1: the least awkward date I've ever seen in Bachelor Nation

836
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 1: history for the first date, because you guys had like

837
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:17,280
Speaker 1: something to accomplish together. You're like, okay, let's do this song.

838
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,040
Speaker 1: It wasn't like, all right, so we gotta figure out

839
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:24,160
Speaker 1: what to talk about from scratch because we have nothing

840
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 1: to talk about in our surroundings like a regular date. Yeah,

841
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 1: and and it almost wasn't like a I'm going all

842
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 1: out to try to like impress this Girl's like we're

843
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:38,000
Speaker 1: working together as a team to you know, impress the

844
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 1: viewers or whoever's there in the room or whatever. So

845
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 1: it was like a like the team aspect of it

846
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,680
Speaker 1: helped me a lot, because if I was just going

847
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:50,040
Speaker 1: on a random date to you know, who knows and

848
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 1: just trying to uh, you know, finingle that it would

849
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 1: have just been a little bit more awkward for me.

850
00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,520
Speaker 1: So now that I had we had the music UM background,

851
00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:00,799
Speaker 1: and we could really speak our language on a date,

852
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,239
Speaker 1: that was really cool. It was the date itself was

853
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:06,520
Speaker 1: like I mean, for me, it was crazy. It was

854
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:09,320
Speaker 1: just evident that it's so much less awkward for you guys,

855
00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 1: because for us on bachelor dates, you don't even know

856
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 1: how to start a conversation. Because when you're like at

857
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 1: a bar or something, you can even talk about the

858
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: surroundings or like make jokes about something. But on the Bachelor,

859
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 1: you're sitting in the middle of a desert on a

860
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: picnic blanket and you're like, I don't know what to

861
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:30,720
Speaker 1: talk about, right, Yeah, I wouldn't do well in that situation,

862
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,160
Speaker 1: I don't think UM. So it was nice to kind

863
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 1: of always have that musical element behind us, kind of

864
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:38,760
Speaker 1: um guiding us along the way. It was it was cool.

865
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,840
Speaker 1: Now what was We're just like Chris Harrison didn't exactly

866
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 1: tell us how the show works in the beginning. He

867
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:47,799
Speaker 1: told us that, you know, everybody has to couple up,

868
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 1: and the people that aren't in couples at the end

869
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 1: of the week get eliminated, very much like Paradise but

870
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: they but he never mentioned that people would be coming

871
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,840
Speaker 1: in and out, Um, that there'll be new contestants and

872
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 1: that is that something that happens, because we've seen the

873
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,799
Speaker 1: scenes for the next episode that a girl walks in

874
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:07,719
Speaker 1: and she starts talking smack on Trevor. And I'm not

875
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 1: sure if that's a girl who's just coming in to

876
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 1: start drama or whether this is a girl that's a

877
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 1: musician and she's going to be now part of the

878
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,800
Speaker 1: group and somebody an option for somebody to give a

879
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:21,920
Speaker 1: rose to. Right. So, every time we saw Chris it

880
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:23,279
Speaker 1: was I don't know about you guys, but it was

881
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:27,000
Speaker 1: always bad news. Oh he's very terrifying when you're actually

882
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,280
Speaker 1: on the show. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean super surreal

883
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 1: just seeing him in person and being close to him.

884
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 1: And then you know, when he comes in the room,

885
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:36,799
Speaker 1: it's kind of like this dark clouds, like, oh, what's

886
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 1: gonna happen? And then and then yeah, every time he'd

887
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:45,360
Speaker 1: say something like now what you know, he'd throw this

888
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,760
Speaker 1: monkey wrenching in the situation. Um, and yeah, the first episode,

889
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 1: I think he mentioned that people are going to go home,

890
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:54,040
Speaker 1: and then as time progresses, the stakes get higher. Um,

891
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: and you know the look on our faces after he

892
00:48:56,719 --> 00:49:01,880
Speaker 1: announced his news just it's just it's crazy because he

893
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 1: throws stuff in the situation and we just completely out

894
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: of left field, not expecting it, and it makes the

895
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:09,799
Speaker 1: situation a lot harder, a lot more pressure as time

896
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,400
Speaker 1: goes on. So, um, yeah, it's it's definitely gonna be

897
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: something fun to look forward to. So based on what

898
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:18,600
Speaker 1: you're saying, it sounds been right like it's um similar

899
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 1: to Winter Games, where we didn't have people coming in

900
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 1: and out, but there were certain stakes that needed you

901
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:26,440
Speaker 1: met each week in order for you to stick around. Yeah, definitely,

902
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,160
Speaker 1: I mean I think it sounds a lot like it.

903
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,160
Speaker 1: And that's that's the thing that is intriguing about the

904
00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:35,879
Speaker 1: show to me is there are are there's activities, there's

905
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:38,359
Speaker 1: a purpose to being there outside of love, even you know,

906
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:41,280
Speaker 1: like it's a very clear thing with The Bachelor, Love

907
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,640
Speaker 1: is the purpose. Now we get that people might go

908
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:46,960
Speaker 1: on for other reasons, but with Winter Games, which was

909
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 1: a competitive event event, and then with you know, listen

910
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:53,319
Speaker 1: to your heart, there is too really motives to be

911
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,960
Speaker 1: on the show. Let's not be crazy, Ryan, you went

912
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,920
Speaker 1: on the show not only to find love, We're not

913
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 1: gonna say you didn't, but also to build a platform

914
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:06,440
Speaker 1: to increase your career, which is music. And I think

915
00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:08,880
Speaker 1: that's a great thing and something that we just should

916
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 1: own and not act like it's not the case. Anybody

917
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,759
Speaker 1: on the show that tells you otherwise is lying. You know.

918
00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:22,440
Speaker 1: There there's there's there's a certain aspect to being asked

919
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,440
Speaker 1: to be on a TV show, which is such an honor. Um,

920
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:28,080
Speaker 1: that's like why which why would you turn this down?

921
00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:31,160
Speaker 1: You know unless you act like a complete idiot. I mean,

922
00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:34,279
Speaker 1: it couldn't really be bad for you. Um, or maybe

923
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:35,960
Speaker 1: you can. I don't know, I'm speaking out. It's like

924
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 1: you guys know, like I said, better than me, but no,

925
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:43,160
Speaker 1: pretty much if you're not an idiot, it goes pretty well. Yeah, right,

926
00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:46,720
Speaker 1: So you know, there there is that aspect of course, Um,

927
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:48,840
Speaker 1: but I truly think that the majority of the people

928
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:52,239
Speaker 1: were there, um really hoping to find someone that they

929
00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:56,080
Speaker 1: can connect with and share musical lasting relationship with. So

930
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:58,799
Speaker 1: um it was good in that aspect that I think

931
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,640
Speaker 1: the majority of people were um, quote unquote there for

932
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 1: the right reasons as well? Are there right reasons on

933
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:06,000
Speaker 1: your show? Is that a Is that a term that

934
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:11,439
Speaker 1: comes up? Um? Oh yeah, Chris said it all the time. Chris,

935
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,600
Speaker 1: did you know that that that came out not so

936
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:16,840
Speaker 1: much in our conversations. I think as time went on

937
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:20,600
Speaker 1: people kind of mentioned it a little bit more. But um,

938
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,799
Speaker 1: you know, my I don't know. I don't know if

939
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:25,439
Speaker 1: I had like a core crew, but I would say,

940
00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:29,440
Speaker 1: like the people that I communicated most with on the show, Um,

941
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:33,719
Speaker 1: we're all like in it for you know, good good

942
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 1: mix slit like obviously you know they're going on the

943
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:39,399
Speaker 1: shows is could potentially help you, but at the same

944
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:42,839
Speaker 1: time not just doing it for that. So um yeah,

945
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,239
Speaker 1: I think it was a healthy balance. Okay, great, I

946
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 1: got a couple more questions for you before I let

947
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 1: you go. I know I could probably pound you with

948
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 1: questions for the next hour, but you'll come back, right,

949
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,440
Speaker 1: You'll come back. Even though I was, you know, too

950
00:51:55,520 --> 00:52:00,000
Speaker 1: much of a fan girl on you. That's welcome any times.

951
00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:03,080
Speaker 1: This is not the first time you've been quarantined or

952
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 1: isolated to yourself. You also went to Note and you

953
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:07,960
Speaker 1: went to Nova Scotia and tell us what you did there,

954
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:12,040
Speaker 1: that's right. So I was living in Nashville, UM for

955
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:13,960
Speaker 1: about a year and a half, and when I moved

956
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,279
Speaker 1: home to Michigan, I had always had this kind of

957
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 1: fantasy of doing like a Bonnie Bear type renting a

958
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:21,840
Speaker 1: cat beIN in the middle of the woods and just

959
00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 1: writing music and doing that. So initially, you know, I

960
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,279
Speaker 1: live in Michigan and I was looking up north and

961
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 1: it was really pricey in the summer months to rent

962
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 1: a cabin for a month, and I was just kind

963
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,759
Speaker 1: of I moved the Airbnb map around and I was

964
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 1: cool with going to the desert for us whatever. So

965
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 1: I kept moving around. I saw this little plot of

966
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 1: land out in the Atlantic and I was like, oh,

967
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:46,840
Speaker 1: what is that? And it turned out to be Nova Scotia. UM.

968
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:51,000
Speaker 1: I contacted the family and long story short, they were

969
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:53,440
Speaker 1: living in Costa Rica at the time, renting out their

970
00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:56,560
Speaker 1: place and I was initially supposed to go there for

971
00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 1: one month, and so I drove. It was about twenty

972
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 1: two hours. Um, all my gear, I've literally took my

973
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 1: whole studio with me and um, you know, I took

974
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:09,359
Speaker 1: a took a boat a ferry over and then uh

975
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:12,840
Speaker 1: set up for about a month, and then as it happened,

976
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 1: the owner of the house needed to come back to

977
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 1: fix the roof, and so there was like a little

978
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:21,680
Speaker 1: guest corridor space that he was living in at the time,

979
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 1: and so I thought he was going to be there

980
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,360
Speaker 1: for maybe a week, maybe two tops. He ended up

981
00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 1: saying there for six weeks, and for that inconvenience, that

982
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 1: couple gave me an additional six weeks for free. So

983
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:35,719
Speaker 1: I literally stayed in this I mean it was a

984
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:38,879
Speaker 1: beautiful house and on the private lake in the middle

985
00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 1: of the woods, like ten minutes from the ocean, for

986
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 1: the cost of like the nastiest motel of all time.

987
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 1: It was. It was crazy, like it was such a

988
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:52,880
Speaker 1: surreal experience, and that's kind of what got me started

989
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 1: producing my own music. And I learned a lot about

990
00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:57,480
Speaker 1: their um just by myself and just kind of in

991
00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 1: that solitude. Did you eat so much locks in cream cheese?

992
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 1: Will there? No? Actually, I don't think I ate that

993
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,200
Speaker 1: at all. Oh, you know that that's what they're known for.

994
00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:12,279
Speaker 1: I ate like a lot of lobster, and and we went, um, yeah,

995
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:13,920
Speaker 1: it was just cool. That guy taught His name was

996
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,520
Speaker 1: Jean Marcus from France and we had like fires and

997
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:20,239
Speaker 1: just the coolest guy um and we'd hang out and

998
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,160
Speaker 1: you know, I thought we saw a UFO one night.

999
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:26,520
Speaker 1: It was pretty gnarly, but yeah, it was a really

1000
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 1: I learned a lot about there, about myself and just

1001
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 1: really got to focus on my music and you know,

1002
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:33,920
Speaker 1: and put out the e P after that, which was

1003
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:37,560
Speaker 1: which was fun. All right. Well, last question, who do

1004
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,000
Speaker 1: you look up to? Who? What artists you look up

1005
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:46,399
Speaker 1: to vocally and performance wise? Yeah? So growing up where

1006
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:51,120
Speaker 1: I did you know Motown was such a big um

1007
00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:56,360
Speaker 1: I can see on your Instagram. Yeah, I think I

1008
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:59,400
Speaker 1: think all time my favorite artist was probably Stevie wonder

1009
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,799
Speaker 1: Um and like Marvin Gay kind of conformation of those guys.

1010
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:05,360
Speaker 1: But I think more modern would be John Mayor. I

1011
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:09,240
Speaker 1: started writing songs because of him. And as you'll see

1012
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 1: in this episode, Um, I mean for the viewers, we

1013
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:16,759
Speaker 1: don't know what dates we're gonna go on. We're giving

1014
00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:19,239
Speaker 1: these cards and and it's it's all uh, you know,

1015
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,320
Speaker 1: it's all a surprised. So we walk into the studio

1016
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:23,680
Speaker 1: and we're told we're going to Capital and we're like, wow,

1017
00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:27,200
Speaker 1: this is crazy. And so Jamie and I are talking

1018
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,239
Speaker 1: in the in the car before, like who do you

1019
00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:32,759
Speaker 1: think it could be? And and I'm like, like John

1020
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,759
Speaker 1: Mayor and uh, because you know, being out in l A,

1021
00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:38,360
Speaker 1: I know he lives there. And and so we opened

1022
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,239
Speaker 1: up the door and Gravity starts playing and like my

1023
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:45,879
Speaker 1: whole body just it was just an incredible experience. And

1024
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 1: the week before that, I watched this documentary on John

1025
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:52,600
Speaker 1: making his first album called Room for Squares, and the

1026
00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:55,799
Speaker 1: producer of that album is John Alaysia, who ended up

1027
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 1: being in the room at that time with Michael Travis,

1028
00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:01,759
Speaker 1: John's old guitar player, and I'm like, dude, I've known

1029
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:04,839
Speaker 1: you for like fifteen years, like I know who you are. Yeah,

1030
00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:06,600
Speaker 1: it was nice to see you know who was in

1031
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:10,560
Speaker 1: that room to recognize them. Yeah, really awkward if not um,

1032
00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:13,280
Speaker 1: but yeah, that was That was one of the coolest

1033
00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:15,279
Speaker 1: moments of my life for sure. And I told him,

1034
00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:17,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I was watching your documentary last week,

1035
00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 1: like this is just unbelievable. So yeah, John's a huge

1036
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:24,560
Speaker 1: influence on music. Would you say you got musically excited

1037
00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 1: in that moment? Oh my god, dude, that was like

1038
00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:32,920
Speaker 1: the silly I almost thought I died And it was

1039
00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:35,239
Speaker 1: just like in heaven. I was dreaming at that point.

1040
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:37,520
Speaker 1: It was like the producers nailed it in terms of

1041
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:39,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if they knew that I was going

1042
00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:41,279
Speaker 1: to be going on this day beforehand, like I'm sure

1043
00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:43,640
Speaker 1: they did. I'm sure they did their research, but it

1044
00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:47,239
Speaker 1: was it was just too perfect in how that was

1045
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:49,320
Speaker 1: set up and me being a first date and getting

1046
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,359
Speaker 1: this extravagant date with Jamie and to perform with John

1047
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 1: and it was it was insane. Yeah right, I'll tell

1048
00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:58,920
Speaker 1: you what I was pumped for you. One of the

1049
00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:01,759
Speaker 1: things is my fianced is a huge Frank Sinatra fan,

1050

1051
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:09,080
Speaker 1: about it many times. And if if you take everything

1052
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:11,720
Speaker 1: else away, Now obviously Ashley is married from the show

1053
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 1: and has a wonderful husband, and the show has been

1054
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:15,880
Speaker 1: great to me in so many different ways. But if

1055
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:19,000
Speaker 1: you take nothing else away, you can look back on

1056
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:21,120
Speaker 1: your experience being on the Bachelor, and if you're there

1057
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 1: for any length of time, you're gonna have experiences that

1058
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,200
Speaker 1: will last you a lifetime. That will be stories that

1059
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 1: you tell when you're on your rocking chair at seventy

1060
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:32,320
Speaker 1: and I saw that date for you, and I was like,

Speaker 1: seems awesome and that, you know, we still talk about

1064
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:43,960
Speaker 1: that to this day. People in the group chats like,

1065
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,440
Speaker 1: we're gonna be telling our kids about these experiences that

1066
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:48,800
Speaker 1: we've had. And for me for that to happen and

1067
00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:50,600
Speaker 1: it be so specific to who I am as a

00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:24,760
Speaker 1: give her bread recipe that she posted on Instagram yesterday.

1095
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 1: If you remember, Heather Martin was the girl who had

1096
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 1: never been kissed. Well that was until the show. She's

1097
00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:36,680
Speaker 1: still about and around, but right now she is in

1098
00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:39,600
Speaker 1: self isolation like the most of us. But Heather is

1099
00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:43,440
Speaker 1: staying busy. Heather, what have you been up to? Um? So,

1100
00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:46,480
Speaker 1: I have been up to a whole lot of eating

1101
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:50,000
Speaker 1: and that's pretty much it. Guys. I literally I've been

1102
00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:52,240
Speaker 1: the least reactive I've ever been my entire life. I

1103
00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:55,120
Speaker 1: feel like everyone's like so productive, doing so many different things.

1104
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 1: My whole family's here is like my two sisters at home,

1105
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:00,680
Speaker 1: and so it's really really fun. So we all got

1106
01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:03,440
Speaker 1: to hang out. But all we've done is like cook

1107
01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:06,560
Speaker 1: and eat and then sleep and then cook and eat.

1108
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:11,400
Speaker 1: Train to ship. Well, you made this really good looking

1109
01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:14,439
Speaker 1: bread on Instagram and we were hoping you can tell

1110
01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:17,160
Speaker 1: us how to make it. Um, I just have to

1111
01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:21,240
Speaker 1: say that everybody's been baking that. When we ordered cake

1112
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:24,800
Speaker 1: mix from the grocery store, they've been out of cake mix.

1113
01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 1: Like when does the grocery store run out of this everything?

1114
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:30,520
Speaker 1: They literally have been out of everything. I know because

1115
01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 1: when I was we were trying to make bread that's

1116
01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:34,560
Speaker 1: been wanting to for like so long, and the grocery

1117
01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 1: store is out of east for like okay, so we

1118
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:40,640
Speaker 1: had we had to um we ordered it online. Um.

1119
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:43,000
Speaker 1: But yeah, so no this, do you have the recipe

1120
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 1: or do you want to make it? Or everything cooking

1121
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:50,840
Speaker 1: with the Bachelor's it's like my infamous recipe that I

1122
01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 1: made out of guesterday. We'ld famous totally. It's been in

1123
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:58,680
Speaker 1: the family for decades, but no, I just found it

1124
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:00,439
Speaker 1: on pinches. It's literally like the first thing I found

1125
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:04,360
Speaker 1: on Pinterest. But okay, I'll I guess we'll start. Should

1126
01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:06,440
Speaker 1: I start with ingredients or instructions or what? How do

1127
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:09,360
Speaker 1: you guys want to go about it. Let's start with ingredients,

1128
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:12,520
Speaker 1: moving into instructions, and then what I would love for

1129
01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:15,520
Speaker 1: you to do, Heather is at the very end. Once

1130
01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:19,280
Speaker 1: the instructions are completed, let's pretend that it's already been cooked.

1131
01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:22,560
Speaker 1: Talk to our audience because this is a podcast about

1132
01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:26,520
Speaker 1: what they're going to experience with their mouth fill of

1133
01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 1: your birth all right, okay, okay, I so the ingredients.

1134
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:34,800
Speaker 1: Ever with ingredients, so we do UM, a third cup

1135
01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 1: of vegetab oil and then two say table students of

1136
01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:42,400
Speaker 1: yeast baking yeast and not um brewing east because that's

1137
01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:45,960
Speaker 1: what we We accidentally bought brewing yeast, which is totally different,

1138
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:47,960
Speaker 1: but we ended up working. But it's I think it's

1139
01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:51,400
Speaker 1: much better with thinking east. UM, and then a half

1140
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:54,040
Speaker 1: cup warm water and then one egg for brushing on

1141
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:57,440
Speaker 1: the bread. At the end, UM, three tablespoons of sugar,

1142
01:01:57,560 --> 01:01:59,960
Speaker 1: two and half table students of salt, two cups hot

1143
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:03,240
Speaker 1: water in six and a half cups flour. So that'st

1144
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 1: the ingredients and so it's really easy. So it's actually

1145
01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:08,640
Speaker 1: like took us like fifteen minutes to actually like get

1146
01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 1: everything together before like the rising so UM, so you

1147
01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:14,800
Speaker 1: start for the instructions, you're starting like with a small bowl,

1148
01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:17,360
Speaker 1: you dissolve the yeast into a one half cup of

1149
01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:20,320
Speaker 1: warm water, and then you let that sit for ten minutes,

1150
01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,920
Speaker 1: and then a separate book mixing bowl you combine the

1151
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:26,400
Speaker 1: hot water, sugar, salt, oil, and flour mixed all the

1152
01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:28,680
Speaker 1: other so basically like all the other ingredients he combined

1153
01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 1: a super bowl and then um. Then after ten minutes

1154
01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:34,680
Speaker 1: you let you add the yeast bowl to the regular bowl,

1155
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:38,000
Speaker 1: mix that all up, and then you wait for it

1156
01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:40,040
Speaker 1: to start pulling away from the bowl to know it's ready.

1157
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 1: So basically just mixed it up, which is like a

1158
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 1: regular spoon, UM, and then you let that sit for

1159
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,680
Speaker 1: ten minutes. And then after that you just separate the

1160
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:50,320
Speaker 1: dough into three pieces um, and you like roll it

1161
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,160
Speaker 1: up like a jelly roll and you shape them into

1162
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:56,320
Speaker 1: a little like French bread rolls, or you can put

1163
01:02:56,360 --> 01:02:59,240
Speaker 1: them into like a regular bread tin. We did that

1164
01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:04,640
Speaker 1: and that was easier. Um, and then uh, you grease that,

1165
01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:07,000
Speaker 1: you said, you make sure the grease the tin is greased,

1166
01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,440
Speaker 1: and then you make three to four diagonal cuts like

1167
01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:12,920
Speaker 1: you know, like bread cuts, and then on top of that,

1168
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,520
Speaker 1: you brush the beaten egg on top of the dough

1169
01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 1: and then you let it rise for thirty to forty

1170
01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:21,120
Speaker 1: minutes uncovered in a warm place. So we just put

1171
01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:25,200
Speaker 1: it in um oven like fifty degrees and like let

1172
01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:27,920
Speaker 1: that sit for thirty minutes, and then you just take

1173
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:31,000
Speaker 1: it at three seventy eighteen twenty minutes. Now, where can

1174
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:35,600
Speaker 1: people see a photo of this? Uh, you're gonna have
