1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: Welcome back to all of our incredible Bachelor Happy Hour listeners.

2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 1: I'm here once again with my girl Tasia, and we

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,399
Speaker 1: can't wait to get into everything today because last night

4
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: was one of my favorite things of each season, which

5
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: wasn't the mental all and Tasha, you and Caitlin freaking

6
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: crushed it. Thank you. It was so surreal being there

7
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: hosting it, but also I was shaking like a leafy

8
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: entire freaking time. But really it was a great yess

9
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 1: you could not tell at all. You and Caitlin, I

10
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: just okay, I like, I love having two females host,

11
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 1: and you just brought such a spunk and different vibe

12
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: in personality to what is usually such like a serious, somber,

13
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:52,279
Speaker 1: dramatic event. I was so proud. I felt like a

14
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: proud mom watching you two. Thank you. It was honestly,

15
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: Caitlin and I were like hyperventiling before we walked out.

16
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: We were holding each those hands, squeezing it and they

17
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: were like, let's go kill this thing. So you did

18
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: so well. Thank you very much. But it was a

19
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: freaking crazy mental all. It was so much happened well,

20
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: and I'm sure and this is what always sucks is

21
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: because we know how long A usually films for. Like,

22
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: there's so much that's talked about, obviously you have to

23
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: condense it into just not even we didn't even get

24
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: a full two hours because we started off seeing michael

25
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: A's departure on Katie's season. But I can only imagine

26
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: how long you were there for and what you actually

27
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,559
Speaker 1: saw go down. I mean, the I have to start

28
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: by saying this, You and Kaitlin crushed shit. You both

29
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: looked incredible. Katie looked great. She handled herself so well

30
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: with the fact that you know, she's seen all of

31
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: her ex boyfriends up on stage in one place since

32
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:52,559
Speaker 1: since her season, It's not easy to do. But there was, yeah,

33
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: a lot that went down. But before all of that,

34
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: like I said, we saw Michael A go home, which

35
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: was I think one of the most gut redgien goodbyes

36
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: we've seen on the show, because it's not that there

37
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 1: was any love lost between him and Katie, but it

38
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,359
Speaker 1: was just solely because of what his son said in

39
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: what he was going through in his own personal life.

40
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Tsha, I tore up my heart. I know,

41
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: I know watching that go down. I mean, I couldn't

42
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: even imagine I don't have a kid, but especially with

43
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: how much they have gone through recently, and truly two

44
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: years ago is pretty recent, I'm sure that's like the

45
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: last feeling he would ever want his son to feel.

46
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: And I couldn't even imagine being him in that moment

47
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: and just choosing obviously his family over himself and sacrificing

48
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: like finding love and yeah, Michael, Michael, it was the

49
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: most dramatic goodbye aside from andrew S. So it was

50
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: it was a tough week for her. Yeah, Yeah, it's

51
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: just Katie's gone through a lot. I mean, she still

52
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: continues to handle herself with so much class. One thing though,

53
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: that I really appreciated with that goodbye is that Michael

54
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,839
Speaker 1: A stated he said something like, you've taught me how

55
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: to love again, which I think even though it didn't

56
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: work out between them and they still you know, he's

57
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,519
Speaker 1: still left in tears, and she was obviously so distraught

58
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,839
Speaker 1: with his goodbye. I think that out of anything, it's

59
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: like what he needed at this point in time. Like

60
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 1: you said, two years hasn't been that long, but to

61
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: be able to just to put himself in this position

62
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: to begin with, and to go on the show to

63
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: have the potential to find love I think is scary

64
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: as shit in itself, and like it showed that, like

65
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,119
Speaker 1: it actually truly worked for him, Like they formed such

66
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: a strong connection, and so I just thought that was

67
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: a really beautiful thing that he could just recognize, Like,

68
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: even if this didn't work out and it's not me

69
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: at the end, you still got me to this point

70
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: where I needed to be to open myself up to

71
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: be able to find love again. And that's what I

72
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: found so beautiful in that Goodbye m Yeah, so we

73
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: saw some really incredible heartwrenching moments between Andrews's hot seat,

74
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: michael As hot seat, Connor's hot seat. But that's why

75
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: we watched mental all, not always because we got to

76
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: get into some of that drama and Tasia, you were there,

77
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: But can you please tell me where the hell this

78
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: beef between Carl and Brendan came from? Because I it's like,

79
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 1: what the hell is this? I was so confused, because

80
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: I will not confused. But at first, you know, we

81
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 1: just kind of dove rite in and the guys were

82
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: still pretty fired up about Carl. But Brendan did not

83
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 1: like Carl. I think he called them what did he

84
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,359
Speaker 1: call him a grimlin? He called him something. It was

85
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: just weird that he just kept coming for him. Yeah.

86
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 1: I just think that Carl just didn't have many friends

87
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: in the house unfortunately. Yeah. I mean, okay, listen, at first,

88
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: when Carl started speaking, he said something about like this,

89
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: he's like when when like the men go after somebody,

90
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: it's kind of like a witch hunt. And at first

91
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: of yes, yeah, like he's not wrong, We've seen this

92
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: on this season. But then he just kept on talking

93
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 1: and kept on going. Carl saw while you're ahead, really backtrack.

94
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: He really could have helped himself out if he just

95
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: would have like said a few concise sentences, you know,

96
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: I just leave it three sentences at most and just

97
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: zipped it. But in pure Carl fashion, he just would

98
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: like to have a twenty five minute seminar to what

99
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: was going on, and he just really just it really

100
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: sucks because I think he was actually onto something, and

101
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: I think that the guys kind of like saw the

102
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 1: truth and some of the things that he was saying.

103
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: But then he just kept chipping over his own feet

104
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: and that he should have Yes, she should have just

105
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: zipped a lip since the beginning, But I digress because

106
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 1: I don't want to turn into carl Um. But yeah,

107
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: it was we saw a lot um. I mean there was,

108
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: it got heated in some moments, but also for the

109
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: most part, it like still seemed relatively tame. I mean

110
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 1: we saw Thomas pop in at the end to give

111
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: an apology, which I think she took very while and

112
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: took the high road there. I will say, like, my

113
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: favorite part of every Tell is of course the bloopers,

114
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: and I've said this before, which I love. I could

115
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: just watch like a whole episode of I Know. Um.

116
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: I loved how they ended in too, with you and

117
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: Caitlin Um talking about what was like the clink clink

118
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 1: and then doing your dance and I'm like, yeah, these

119
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: are my girls. I mean, we had such a good time.

120
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, there was so much more that happened

121
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: obviously behind the scenes. But yeah, you know, the one

122
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: thing that I was shocked at and I'm still wondering,

123
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,839
Speaker 1: I think we're all still wondering, is why Thomas wasn't

124
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: actually there at mental all. His name was brought up

125
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: a lot, and it would have just been so different

126
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: for him to be able to confront everything head on.

127
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: Hadd he had been there, but he wasn't. But the

128
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: other thing that I was wondering is we never really

129
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: got clarity on Cody and Aaron, which was so bizarre

130
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: and weird to me. It was like this thing that

131
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: we would going around and around and around in circles

132
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: for probably about twenty five minutes. They just don't like

133
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: each other. But it was weird because Cody was being odd,

134
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: like his demeanor in person. There was something that he

135
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: wasn't saying really, and same with Aaron. Yes there's something there.

136
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 1: We just don't know what it is. But whatever. I

137
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: will say this, at first, when you guys are announcing

138
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: some of the men again, I was like, who's this guy?

139
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: Who's this guy? Where did this guy come from? There?

140
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: Or something like a select few of I was like, wait,

141
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: this guy was on this season. I don't remember him whatsoever.

142
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, I guess you probably picked up

143
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: a lot more because you were there, and if you

144
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: saw them in person, you can pick up on body

145
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: language and just send the demeanor. But I think it's

146
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: a mystery that will remain a mystery until the end

147
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: of time. I don't think. I don't think anyone. Yeah, again,

148
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: I don't think Aaron or Cody truly know, but if

149
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: anyone out there has any info, please send it because

150
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: we love we love our intel. But at the end

151
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: of the day, I mean, hopefully it's squashed and they

152
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 1: can move on and if they see each other in

153
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: Circle time in San Diego, they can just move on

154
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: and be happy. One of the standout moments of Mental All, however,

155
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 1: was around mister Connor and his mouth. So I obviously

180
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 1: The support has been so cool, and like people love

181
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: the cat costume. I think the best part has been

182
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: the memes, just like becoming a meme was was a

183
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: goal of mine in life. I check it off the list,

184
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: check it off the list. Wait, Connor, why are you

185
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: not in your cat costume right now? You joke? But

186
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: I mean it's sitting right over there. No go grab it.

187
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: You're grabbing it right now. Yeah, come on, he's not

188
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 1: putting he's putting it on. At least the pause. At

189
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: least give us the pause. Yeah, whatever, she lost pause,

190
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: the pause. The only thing I don't have. Does Katie

191
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: have the pause still? Because she was wearing them? Now,

192
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: I remember that very well. During the Rose ceremony, there

193
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 1: was like this fire behind us, and it was hot,

194
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 1: like a literal fire behind us, and so I was

195
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 1: sweating buckets. So I had to take the paws off

196
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: and I just threw them because we were filming, and

197
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: then they disappeared forever. The pause. Yeah, let's see the

198
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: hat though, all right. I did say before he came on,

199
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: if he's not going to have the cat costume, I'm

200
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: going to be so pissed. Really. Yeah, in the background,

201
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: that is so funny. I'm gonna show you how I travel. Uh. Basically,

202
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 1: I take the cat costume and I wrap it around

203
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: the ukulele because I don't I don't have a case

204
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: for the uku lately, and I don't want to get

205
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: busted in the suitcase. Double whammy, Jesus costume. Wow, well

206
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: he packs lightly, guys. Look at this cat costume protects

207
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,040
Speaker 1: the ukulele. We love We love a smart man and

208
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 1: a smart Oh my gosh, I love it. I have

209
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 1: to say, you are one of the most probably one

210
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 1: of the most memorable Night One entrances we have ever seen. Obviously,

211
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,439
Speaker 1: every every season there's somebody that comes in the costume,

212
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: but like, no one will forget you because you you

213
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: truly owned the owned it. And it wasn't just Night One,

214
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: like it was like your inner sea line came out,

215
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: like but your puns connor have you always been so punny?

216
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 1: So here's what happened. It's okay, was short, I promised.

217
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: In high school, I had a best friend who made

218
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: puns all the time, constantly, and I did what everybody

219
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 1: was at grow you know, I groaned, I rolled my eyes.

220
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: I was like, those are stupid. And then I went

221
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: to college. We went to separate colleges, and then I

222
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 1: found that there was like a pun vacuum, and so

223
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: someone would say something and I would expect, you know,

224
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: Nick to be there to say the pun. It wasn't there.

225
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 1: Then it was like I had to say it because

226
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: I heard it in my head. And from there it

227
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 1: just snowballed. And now all I do is think of

228
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: puns twenty four seven. Now you're the puny book guy. Good,

229
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: You're good at it, though I will say like not

230
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 1: like between the cat puns and then the woo puns?

231
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: Is it? Woo were woo woo? I keep screwing the

232
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: the tallenge. Okay, the woe woe puns too. You were

233
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 1: so quick with them. I was like, damn, Like it's

234
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: somebody has to be behind the camera feeding in these lines,

235
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 1: Like there's no way this guy's is quick. That was

236
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: maybe twenty five percent of that interview. Like I I

237
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: went on for about ten minutes and I just literally

238
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 1: said there making them up on the spot, like I

239
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 1: had maybe a couple I heard before, but all of

240
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: those just made them up on the spot. I was like, God,

241
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: I wish I was more witty like that and more

242
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: like quick. That's a that's a pure talent on a

243
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: cor I'm gonna get you on speed dial and anytime

244
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: I need a good pun, I'm just gonna text you

245
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 1: quick and be like, hey, this is a situation to

246
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: give me a really good idea you joke. And I

247
00:13:58,280 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: have friends who I haven't heard from in two or

248
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: three years will just be like, hey, punt, hit me

249
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: with a pun four like thisption or something like that,

250
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: and I's like, yeah, I got you. Let me think it.

251
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: I shoot them like twenty punds, so Are they friends

252
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: if you don't talk in two or three years, If

253
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: they ask for a pun, their friend for sure. Okay,

254
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: always puns make friends for life. Noticed, since you're a teacher,

255
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: do you constantly make pun jokes in class? Or no?

256
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: Do your students like it? I don't know that they

257
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: like it. I don't think anybody really likes it. That's

258
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: really like to say they I This was a deleted scene,

259
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 1: but I had letters that my eighth graders wrote to

260
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: Katie just to like, I like letters of recommendation for

261
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: me basically, and pretty much every single one mentioned my

262
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: terrible dad jokes. Oh I love that. I feel like

263
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: we as women, as we evolve and get older, we

264
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: start to like the terrible dad jokes. You know, it's

265
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: kind of like an addition. It's kind of like an

266
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: audition for the future, right ta. I kind of love

267
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: the dad jokes as a grown woman, as like a

268
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: younger child, a teenager, you're just like, can you stop

269
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: like it's annoying when your dad's actually making appreciate it?

270
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: So there's hope for me? Yea? Yeah? Well, okay, I

271
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: think after mental all we saw it, I don't even

272
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: think we need a question if there's hope for you

273
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: after we saw what went down on mental all, which

274
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: we will get into very shortly. Um, I want to

275
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: go back to the beginning, because again, you have been

276
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: such a favorite since the start, since that cat costume

277
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: out of the limo. Right away for me, as if

278
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: you were at least, it seems like you and Katie

279
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: had such an instant, strong connection, like and I pegged you.

280
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 1: I was like, he's going to be one of these

281
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: at the end, like she was so into so fresh

282
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: out the gate. Did you feel that same connection instantly

283
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: with her? Yeah, I mean the moment I saw her,

284
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 1: I knew going in that I had, you know, I

285
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: thought she was amazing. I thought she was super cute.

286
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: I thought I loved how she stood up for people,

287
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: so going and I was already really interested and excited

288
00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: to meet her. And then I saw her in person,

289
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: and she was I mean, she blew away whatever image

290
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: I had in my head of her. She was just incredible. Um,

291
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: So right off the bat she had me because I

292
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: was blackout nervous during that whull cat suit thing, like

293
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: I'm watching it back, barely remembered what I said because

294
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: I was so so nervous, but she made me feel

295
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: so comfortable and so at ease just immediately. And she

296
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: hit me with a pun right off the bat when

297
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: she said I think that sounds perfect. You're perfect? Yeah,

298
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: and I like my heart just like skipped a beat.

299
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: I was like, holy shit, like they do exist. You're like,

300
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: is there a ring already? Do I need to get

301
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: down on one knee? I'm ready shut it down? I'm ready. Um.

302
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 1: But yeah, so I she had me with that moment

303
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: right off the bat. Did you expect for the cat

304
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: costume to go over very well? Or were you kind

305
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 1: of hesitant and where it is that something that you

306
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: normally do. I was super nervous hesitant about it at first. Yeah, idea.

307
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 1: I almost it as a joke, um, but then I

308
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: was really scared of being the weird cat dude. He's like,

309
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 1: I didn't want to be the guy that just shows

310
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: up in a costume to like, you know, be the

311
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: guy in the costume. Um. But what I wanted to do.

312
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 1: What I was thinking about is how nervous I was

313
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,479
Speaker 1: gonna be. I knew Katie had to be nervous too, right,

314
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 1: like this is a huge night, Like this is gonna

315
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 1: be a really nervous night. So if I could do

316
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: something to make her laugh or to just make her

317
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: night a little easier than at least, it would have

318
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: been worth it. And so I think coming from that

319
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 1: angle was different than Hey, look at me, I'm a

320
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: guy in a catsuit. It was like, Katie's gonna like this.

321
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: Katie's gonna laugh. She loves cats and and looking at

322
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 1: it from that angle helps me a lot too. But yeah,

323
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 1: I was I was really nervous as for um. I

324
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:43,919
Speaker 1: also thought about is this something I would really do

325
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 1: in real life? And then I realized I was in

326
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: a band up in Wisconsin and we recorded a music

327
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: video in dinosaur costumes. So I was like, oh wait, yeah,

328
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 1: I totally wait, Connor, I think I've seen that way

329
00:17:55,560 --> 00:18:04,719
Speaker 1: Katy concerned your homework? Where time out? Where in Wisconsin?

330
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: Because I'm from the Midwest. My sister lives in Wisconsin. Yeah,

331
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 1: I lived in Madison for five years. Oh okay, so

332
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 1: she used to live in Madison. She's in New Glaris now,

333
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: but a beautiful area. I love. I love Madison. It's

334
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 1: like one of my favorite today yesterday, Okay, well, after this,

335
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: we'll talk all about the Farmer's Market. I mean you.

336
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: I think what was so endearing about you is you

337
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,120
Speaker 1: didn't just show up and feel awkward in a costume

338
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: like you you knew it's something that she loved that

339
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 1: obviously she has her cats and like that. She always

340
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 1: talks about it on Instagram, And so it was so

341
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 1: tailored towards her, Like I had a dude night one

342
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: show up in a chicken costume and I'm like, yeah,

343
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,439
Speaker 1: I like chicken nuggets. Cool, Like it wasn't tailored towards me.

344
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: So I feel like you really made it your own

345
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: for her, which was special. Um. And then something that

346
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: we saw you do all throughout the season is you know,

347
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,959
Speaker 1: write your songs and make everything your own and really

348
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: tailored the times that you performed in front of the

349
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,199
Speaker 1: guys are with her just something so special for this situation.

350
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: So the first time I think it was the first

351
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: time we saw you write the song was for that

352
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 1: first group day, correct, Yes? So how long the great

353
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: lover of all time? Yes? So how long did it

354
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 1: take you? How long does it typically take you to

355
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: write a song? Because they are good, they are spot

356
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: on with whatever scenario you're in. Like I again, like

357
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: going back to the punts. I'm jealous and I'm not

358
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: this quick and witty. So how long does it did

359
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: it take you to write that specific song? So we

360
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 1: had maybe maybe two hours of prep time something like that.

361
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: The second we like walk back into that room, I

362
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 1: was like, what am I gonna do? Like I'm gonna

363
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 1: have to wear some weird costume or like strip or

364
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,159
Speaker 1: something like that. And then I saw a tiny, dinky,

365
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: little piano and I was like, let's go immediately. And

366
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 1: then the second I out of that, like I just

367
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 1: started hearing a melody in my head and started hearing

368
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: some words, and I was like, I know what I

369
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: want to do. So I knocked out most of it

370
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: within you know, forty five minutes an hour or something

371
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: like that, and it's it's I've been writing songs since

372
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 1: I was thirteen, damn yeah, oh yeah, So I wrote

373
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 1: my first song I was like twelve or thirteen, so

374
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: I've just done it or you know, fifteen, sixteen years now,

375
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: So just it gets easier and easier as you do it.

376
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. After listening to your song and

377
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 1: watching you perform and just how good it was, I

378
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: was like, he's witty, he's sweet. He obviously is thoughtful

379
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 1: and like really is trying to get your attention, not

380
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: just trying to get attention and trying to like make

381
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 1: the guys laugh. Like it was really all about her

382
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: since day one. And I was like, Okay, the cat

383
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: costume wouldn't have been my cup of tea and be

384
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: like I wouldn't have been like, but this song that's

385
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,439
Speaker 1: what did me in. And I was like, yeah, no,

386
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 1: we're paying attention to him, just so you know, we

387
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: had your back on the map. Well, I'm glad, I'm

388
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: How many instruments do you play? Uh? So my best

389
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 1: instrument is piano. I started playing cana I was six.

390
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 1: My my dad's musician too, and he had me take

391
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:11,360
Speaker 1: cana listens, and then guitar was my next best one,

392
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: ukulele after that, then a little bit of banjo. I

393
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: played alto saxophone in high school. A sax player, right, yeah,

394
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: I have it somewhere I don't know, uh, And then

395
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 1: a couple of random little ones like harmonica and stuff

396
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:32,360
Speaker 1: like that. That's a bunch. So there's a girl who

397
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 1: was on Ari season with me named Kendall who also

398
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,679
Speaker 1: plays the ukulele, so just throwing it out there for

399
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 1: you know, future reference if you ever need a fellow

400

Speaker 1: ukulele player. Is that taxidermy that is? She's great? Oh

Speaker 1: into that. We need to get into that right now.

406
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: You don't know that is true? Things do happen fast

407
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 1: in this world. Um okay, I obviously do want to

408
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: get into Mental All, but I have a few other

409
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: questions before you know, we get to that point in

410
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: in the stage of Katie's season. Um okay, So we

411
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 1: saw you get your very first one on one, which

412
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,880
Speaker 1: technically was a double date with Katie Tatia or well,

413
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: uh yeah, two on two with Caitlyn and Jason. They

414
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:43,400
Speaker 1: are a couple now and it's funny one But how

415
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 1: did you feel going into that date and seeing them?

416
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 1: Was it something that you were pumped for? And then

417
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: how like overall the day portion of that date, how

418
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 1: did you feel it wind Yeah, I was just so

419
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 1: I was nervous for sure going in Um just because

420
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 1: Katie always may be nervous, you know, liked her so much,

421
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: but I was also just super super excited for literally

422
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 1: whatever it was. And I think I even said that

423
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: to her. I was like, we could go sit anywhere

424
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: and do anything, and I would just be excited, like

425
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: I just am so stoked to spend time with you,

426
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: and you only you know, you get these little conversations.

427
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: But what I said to them was like, you miss

428
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 1: on some of these in between moments when you don't

429
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,640
Speaker 1: have that one on one right, like just hanging out

430
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: with somebody and you know, in those in between moments.

431
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 1: So that's what I was really excited about. And then

432
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: I saw so I almost just said Kaitlin Titia. I

433
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: saw Kaitlin and Jason, and I was so excited because

434
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: Kaitlyn seemed, you know, so fun and hysterical. And then

435
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,199
Speaker 1: I'd known I'd seen Jason before on his season and

436
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: he seemed like a great guy. And then the second

437
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: we sat down, they were just like the two coolest,

438
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: most down to earth, fun people, and I was like, oh,

439
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: this is this is gonna be a great day, Like

440
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 1: this is gonna be awesome. And then it takes a

441
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 1: little turn for the worst. And I hate to even

442
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: say it like that, because by the end of that

443
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: day is when you really tugged at America's heart strings.

444
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 1: We saw Katie show up at your door. So in

445
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: that moment where you shocked to see her, I mean,

446
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: I think as as viewers, we always kind of know like,

447
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: oh no, Like you know, if you're either going to

448
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 1: the lead store, if they're coming to you, you're like,

449
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 1: ah shit, you have that feeling. We're like something's about

450
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: to go down, Something's going to go down. So how

451
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: were you feeling? Were you shocked? Were you excited? Still?

452
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 1: Where we Where was your head in your heart in

453
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 1: that moment? So yeah, I was in that little room.

454
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: I was actually practicing my ukule like I had two

455
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: more ukulele songs. I was going to show Katie that

456
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 1: night thanks. And then I heard the knock and I

457
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 1: literally thought it was going to be like Kaitlin with

458
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: some news about the Whoa Whoa challenge or something funny.

459
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: So I was just like, oh, yeah, it's you know whatever.

460
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: Like I went to the door and then like my

461
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: heart dropped when it was Katie there. I was excited

462
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: to see her about she was crying already when she

463
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 1: walked up. Yeah, I didn't think it had anything to

464
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 1: do with me. I thought it was from like something

465
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 1: had happened with the drama from the night before, like

466
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: the guy as a Hunter or like, I thought something

467
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: like that had gone down and she was really upset

468
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 1: and was maybe just needed to cancel dinner or something.

469
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: So yeah, I had no idea that that was where

470
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 1: that was going. And then she walked in and we

471
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: sat down, and I just you know, I saw her

472
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 1: crying and wanted to whatever it was, I wanted to

473
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 1: make it better or feel better. And then you saw

474
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: that moment where she started saying some really really like

475
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,679
Speaker 1: kind things at me, like really genuine not just like

476
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: you're a great guy, but like really deeply genuine things.

477
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: And then pretty quickly I was like, oh, that's what

478
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,199
Speaker 1: this okay, okay. But then as soon as you know,

479
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 1: I could tell that she was dreading, saying the words

480
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: like I have to send you home or I have

481
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 1: to break up through whatever was, and that's why I

482
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 1: was like, I know, I know what this is. Like

483
00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: it's it's okay. I understand, Like everything's okay, it's gonna

484
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: be okay, and I just wanted her to know that,

485
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,400
Speaker 1: because I mean, just seeing how sad it was making

486
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 1: her was breaking my heart too. Yeah. I think it

487
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,160
Speaker 1: was one of the first breakups that we watched as

488
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: viewers where I mean, it's always hard on the lead's

489
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: end to send anyone home. You never and tation I've

490
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 1: talked about this. You never want to like feel like

491
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: you have all this power and like you're playing god

492
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 1: in the relationships. Yeah, it's always difficult, but it hits

493
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,439
Speaker 1: different when it's somebody that you actually really care about

494
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 1: and like you like she even sent for you, like

495
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 1: she could see a future with you, like it could

496
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: all be there. There's just one thing missing, and oh

497
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: my gosh, Like when we saw that conversation, at least

498
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: for me, I was like, my heart broke because I

499
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 1: know what that feels like and I know on both ends,

500
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: and so you handled it so gracefully and to kind

501
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 1: of allow her to be like, you know, like I

502
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 1: understand what this is like you know, don't like you

503
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: kind of understand the process in a way. Um, how

504
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 1: did it feel though, because one thing that we obviously

505
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: saw her talk about, which I'm sure it wasn't that enjoyable.

506
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: Was the whole kissing like she just needed that spark

507
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: or that passion that was missing. So when she said that,

508
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 1: is that something you would have agreed with her? Looking back?

509
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 1: Would you have agreed with or where do you stand

510
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: with that? Looking back? I looked like a am I

511
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 1: allowed to kiss on this? I look like a fucking

512
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: maniac in every case. I literally like couldn't watch it.

513
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 1: I was like, dude, what are you doing? Calm down,

514
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:48,439
Speaker 1: take a breath. No, Like I looked so like it

515
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: was if it makes you feel any better, I'm sure

516
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: we've all kind of thought that about ourselves on somebody.

517
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 1: It's not normal to watch yourself kiss somebody on television

518
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,719
Speaker 1: and kind of millions of people. That is not normal,

519
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,880
Speaker 1: So give yourself a break. Yeah, I think. I think

520
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: what I will say in my defense is I was

521
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 1: also so nervous every time we kissed, and I think

522
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 1: that probably had something to do with it. Yeah, just

523
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 1: those nerves. But yeah, watching it back, I was like, oh, yeah,

524
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 1: you know, I understand now, Katie, Like it makes sense. Um,

525
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: I mean I loved kissing Katie, so the spark was

526
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: there on my end such as I almost like feel

527
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,400
Speaker 1: like do you wish you knew it was like like

528
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 1: you knew it was like that specific, like little thing

529
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 1: because it was there for you on your end, or

530
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: do you kind of wish like it would just like

531
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 1: She's like, you know, it's just like not working out.

532
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 1: I don't really see a future in that regard. Yeah. No,

533
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 1: I don't think there's anything that I could have really

534
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: done differently that would have changed anything. And that that

535
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 1: helps to know that, Yeah, it wasn't anything that I

536
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: necessarily did wrong or didn't do or anything like that.

537
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 1: It's just there wasn't that intangible spark, that intangible chemistry,

538
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: and that's just not anyone's fall. It's just yeah, it's

539
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: life and love, you know. And so that that helps,

540
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 1: you know. And there were times when I would, you know,

541
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 1: kick myself and be like, oh I should have done

542
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: this and this and this, or I should have been

543
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: a not terrible kiss or I really don't think none

544
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: of it would I don't think it would have changed

545
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: anything in the end. And yeah, well listen, I've had

546
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: conversations with some of my girlfriends who we've shared boyfriends

547
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: throughout the show, and we've had conversations about kissing and

548
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: if somebody's good or not good, and everyone's experience is

549
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: vastly different, so you know, I mean, listen, I was

550
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 1: gonna say, you never know who you're gonna kiss next,

551
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: and who might you know really surprise you, which leads

552
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 1: me to transition into the mental all and I just

553
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 1: want to get into this right away. We will backtrack,

554
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 1: but I need to get into this girl from the

555
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 1: audience that you're not only kiss but like it was

556
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: like a hot, steamy makeout on a live stage in

557
00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 1: front of what twelve to fifteen men that you used

558
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,239
Speaker 1: to live with, in front of Caitlin and Tasia, in

559
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 1: front of your well, I was gonna say, in front

560
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 1: of your ex girlfriend. Think God, Katie wasn't there in

561
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 1: that moment? Yeah no, but I wouldn't have what that

562
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: happened to the back. But first of all, what was

563
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 1: this girl's name? Name was Tara? Tara? Okay, are you

564
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: still talking to Tara? I have her number? Have you

565
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: utilized said number? Have you texted her? Yeah? We facetimeed?

566
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: Oh her baby. This is so saying do I have

567
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: a hand in this relationship as well? Because I'm pretty

568
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: sure I was the one being like, yes, please come

569
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 1: down to the stage. You're a matchmaker. I owe it

570
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 1: all to you. Oh, Taia is our new fairy love mother.

571
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: Thank you. This is so crazy because she stood up,

572
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 1: was like, Connor, I think you're a great kisser. I

573
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: think you're a great guy. I would love to try

574
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 1: it out. And then when she came up to say

575
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: she said that you were checking her out the whole time.

576
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: So is that what she said? Because all happened so fast,

577
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: I don't even remember what she said. She said. She

578
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: said that, yeah, that you guys were checking each other

579
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: out during Mental all were you throwing her eyes? And

580
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 1: I knew that people wouldn't believe when I said this,

581
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 1: but I was like, I literally walked sat down. I

582
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:28,719
Speaker 1: noticed her. She stuck out from the crowd, like at

583
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: the beginning of Mental, all like, dang, it's really cute

584
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 1: girl over there. Okay, back to this drama and whatnot.

585
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: And I was checking her out, and so when she

586
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: stood up, I was like, oh my god, that's that's

587
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 1: a really pretty girl. I was checking out, Like what's happening? Yeah, okay,

588
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: So I'm assuming she lives in La correct because that's

589
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: where Mental was filmed. So if you guys are still.

590
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: I don't know how often you travel. I'm currently in

Speaker 1: in the future. Um, but if you guys are willing,

606
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: date planned by Becca. I think that'd be a great

607
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: day heat. I think I feel like it could be

608

00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a day the Bachelor franchise might want

611
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: to hire me for a date producer in the future.

612
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 1: That's all I'm going to say. I would hire you.

613
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: And the great thing is she's also a musician and

614
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 1: she comes to Nashville, so I invite her to Nashville

615
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 1: to take her on a date. Oh, I love This

616
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 1: is crazy how stuff like this happens. Obviously, you go

617
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 1: on the show hoping to find some sort of connection

618
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: with the lead. You know, it only works out for

619
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 1: usually one person, But now look at this. It opens

620
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 1: up so many other opportunities and weird connections that you

621
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: never even expected. And like, who knows, this girl could be,

622
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: you know, just one more date, or she could be

623
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 1: someone that you actually pursue, which is really exciting. And

624
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: now I'm so glad that I witness the beginning of this.

625
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: Absolutely I'm happy for you. I love this, okay, but

626
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 1: also no pressure, don't worry. But also like, I want

627
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: to plan the stuffing date, so let me do it.

628
00:33:54,600 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: Wa um so mental obviously there was it got heated

629
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: in moments. It was pretty tame in moments. It was

630
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 1: heart wrenching in moments. Um, you though, I have to say,

631
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,920
Speaker 1: you have some stands out there in Vatchel Nation, because

632
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: we saw somebody show up in a cat costume for

633
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,800
Speaker 1: Mental Halls for you. That was so good? That was

634
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: that was great. I always love when people show up

635
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,760
Speaker 1: with their posters or their costumes, like it just shows

636
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 1: you how invested people are in the show and in

637
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,799
Speaker 1: you as an individual, which I think is great. How

638
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 1: did you feel sitting up there in your hot seat?

639
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,720
Speaker 1: Was that something that you were prepared for? Was it?

640
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: Was it weird having to kind of like rewatch and

641
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: relive those moments back? Did it like stir up all

642
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: of those old emotions for you? Yeah, well, that was

643
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 1: the first time I'd seen the breakup, was sitting right there.

644
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously I lived through it, um, but it's

645
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 1: it's it definitely stirred up a lot of emotions to

646
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 1: sit and watch that, And it also brings up new

647
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 1: emotions because you get new insight and new perspective, right

648
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 1: like seeing Katie's interviews and how heartbroken she was, and

649
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,359
Speaker 1: then seeing my interviews because it all happened so fast,

650
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: I don't even quite remember what I said and that

651
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 1: sort of thing, so definitely brings back a lot of

652
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 1: those emotions. Do you feel like you got the closure

653
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 1: that you needed? I know that you obviously think the

654
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,359
Speaker 1: world of Katie, and you kind of said earlier that

655
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: you don't think that you could have done anything to

656
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: change the outcome. But do you think that you got

657
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 1: enough closure in that goodbye? And did you have any

658
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 1: other questions for her when you were there? What was

659
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 1: that like? Yeah? I felt really lucky to get like

660
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,319
Speaker 1: an actual breakup because I feel like a lot of

661
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 1: people just go home at a Rose ceremony and you know,

662
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 1: you get your ten seconds to say something to her

663
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: and then you have to leave and you don't see

664
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: her again for who knows how long. And so I

665
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 1: got to really and you guys only got to see

666
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: a small portion of it, but we were you know,

667
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:55,880
Speaker 1: we were there for ten fifteen minutes and really got

668
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 1: to have a full conversation and I felt like I

669
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: got the answers and the closure needed in that moment,

670
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,800
Speaker 1: Like we got to hold each other, we got to cry,

671
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: and I asked my questions and she was just completely honest,

672
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: and so I didn't walk out of there with with

673
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: any like lingering questions. You know, there were obviously, it's

674
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: after a breakup you want to be like, oh, loo,

675
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,280
Speaker 1: could I have done different? But again, like I said earlier,

676
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,399
Speaker 1: like I don't think there was anything like that. So

677
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,399
Speaker 1: I just it was like the most beautiful breakup I'd

678
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:29,880
Speaker 1: ever been a part of. And just no, no, because

679
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 1: a lot of times to break up, you walk away

680
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: with a lot of there's maybe anger or resentment or

681
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: anything like that. There's just none of that here I was.

682
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: I just felt very lucky to have been here, lucky

683
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 1: to have known Katie, and lucky to have had the

684
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 1: time in my head with her. It's really hard watching

685
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 1: yourself like on television and then relive all those emotions.

686
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 1: And I commend you just because it's it's it's different

687
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,360
Speaker 1: when someone is completely vulnerable and as themselves and I

688
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,399
Speaker 1: really tries to lead into something and you can walk

689
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,840
Speaker 1: away happy being proud of yourself as opposed to like

690
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 1: wishing you did something different or seeing your growth on television.

691
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I thought you that you grew

692
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: a lot since night once and that was really cool

693
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: to watch. I wanted to play off of that question.

694
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 1: I think everyone that leaves the show has some sort

695
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: of major moments and takeaways or things that they've learned

696
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 1: about themselves. It's such a weird position to be in

697
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: to begin with, but it lends itself to so much

698
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: just internal growth, I think, and just like learning new

699
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 1: things about yourself that you maybe didn't know so overall

700
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 1: going through the entire season, and not only relationship like

701
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 1: a romantic relationship, but what were some things that you

702
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 1: learned about yourself while on Katie season? I love this

703
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: question because that was one of my favorite parts. Was

704
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 1: I grew so much, And you're right, I grew in

705
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 1: romantic ways, but also just in ways and things that

706
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: I learned about myself. I think one of the biggest

707
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: things I learned is just kind of like my love

708
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 1: language I figured out through this is maybe words of affirmation.

709
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: And I love how Katie and even watching back and

710
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 1: how she goes with the other guys, how she can

711
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:20,319
Speaker 1: find beautiful things about everyone and she's not afraid to

712
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:24,840
Speaker 1: tell them those things, and that to me was just incredible,

713
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: And that was one of the things that I loved

714
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 1: most about It was just that she saw my insecurity

715
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: and she said, hey, you are an amazing person. You

716
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 1: deserve to be here. Here are the things that are

717
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 1: beautiful about you, and that was so incredible to me

718
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 1: and I just loved that and I won't settle for

719
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 1: less than that. So that was one of the biggest

720
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 1: things I learned yet. But I love that. I want

721
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: I feel like it plays into you too, because even

722
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 1: with your songwriting that if you're writing for somebody that

723
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 1: is words of affirmation, and so it kind of matched up.

724
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 1: So it's no surprise that that's what you would find

725
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,879
Speaker 1: beautiful in another person. Being able to give that back

726
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: to I think that's really a special Going through full season,

727
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: we not only see romantic relationships evolved between all of

728
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 1: you men in the lead, but also between well not

729
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 1: romantic relationships, but good relationships and like this brotherhood between

730
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 1: most of the men. So how are you with the

731
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: guys that are well, I'm not in the house, but

732
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 1: with the guys on the show, do you feel like

733
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,439
Speaker 1: you formed this strong brotherhood? Who are you still really

734
00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,720
Speaker 1: close with? Yeah, there's there's honestly some of the most

735
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,359
Speaker 1: incredible people I've ever met. And again, that was one

736
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 1: of the best parts was not just all in love

737
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 1: with Katie, but getting to meet these incredible guys who

738
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: not only are you know amazing people, but just are

739
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: also great at building people up. That was a crazy thing.

740
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: I came in thinking that the guys were gonna fight

741
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 1: and we're all gonna be mean, and they were gonna

742
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 1: hate me and stuff like that. Actually, some of my

743
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: family are Bachelor fans too, and we ran some scenarios

744
00:39:57,160 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 1: ahead of time because my mom was worried I was

745
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: gonna get bullied. Why I don't know, because she's watched

746
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 1: the show before and seeing people get picked on, and

747
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 1: so she's like, all right, so we're gonna run some scenarios.

748
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: And so we went. We met up at an air

749
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 1: vy and be in Kentucky and my like my mom

750
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 1: and my dad, my sister were there and my mom

751
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 1: would like pretend to be a bully and she'd come

752
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: at me. She's been at my coffee. It's so funny.

753
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 1: I wish. I am so intrigued to keep going. What

754
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,319
Speaker 1: did your mother say to you? So she we read

755
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,319
Speaker 1: so only snares. She'd come up and she'd be all right,

756
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,240
Speaker 1: so here we go, We're going to do the scenario.

757
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 1: And she'd go, hey, Connor, Hey, I think you're a dick,

758
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,839
Speaker 1: and I think that you're just here for music and

759
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 1: that you don't even like her and I'm gonna go

760
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: tell this girl right now that you need to go home,

761
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 1: and I hate you. My mom's just like sweet little woman,

762
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 1: and then I would have to like react and she

763
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:00,759
Speaker 1: would like judge my performance in my action. No, don't

764
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 1: say that, because then he'll say this and blah blah blah. Oh,

765
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: your mom sounds like you. Your mom sounds like she

766
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 1: belongs on the Bashball date where all the guys were

767
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 1: talking shit tweet to each other and it was like

768
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:19,760
Speaker 1: your spine is made out of jelly on that date. Yeah,

769
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 1: she really does. She couldn't talk the boys at a

770
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: smack talk because they really needed some help. Yeah, I

771
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,080
Speaker 1: wish you would have filmed this. Can you go next

772
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: time you're with your mom? Can you please reenact this

773
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: bully scenario? Absolutely? We ran all sorts of scenarios. We

774
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,840
Speaker 1: ran like my limo entrance to Night one, but obviously

775
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: we didn't have the cat suit idea yet, so it

776
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 1: was completely different. But we made my dad do it too,

777
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,560
Speaker 1: and he hated it, like we brought him and it

778
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 1: made him do I He's like, this is stupid, this

779
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 1: is so funny. Your mom sounds like my mom. Before

780
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 1: I left for the show, she was so nervous. She's like,

781
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,359
Speaker 1: the girls are going to be so mean and pick

782
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 1: on you, and I'm like, and then I came out

783
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: with twenty five new girlfriends and it was it was great.

784
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 1: Like you know, nothing you can expect, but god, I

785
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 1: love this. I would love to meet your mother. If

786
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:11,400
Speaker 1: nothing else, I want to see some video footage of

787
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 1: her bullying. Okay, so obviously you went through this entire

788
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 1: crazy experience. You came out it sounds like a better, stronger,

789
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 1: more well rounded, versatile man. But we got some big

790
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 1: news coming up, Connor, and we did see that you

791
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 1: will soon be gracing us with your presence on the

792
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:38,400
Speaker 1: beaches of Paradise. So this is great because well, maybe

793
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,839
Speaker 1: look at the dance he's done right now. I don't

794
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 1: want to give too much away, I will say, not

795
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 1: only did I bring the ukulele, but I also brought

796
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 1: the guitar this time. So there's definitely footage of me

797
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 1: sitting barefoot buttons undone chest out playing guitar, sitting on

798
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 1: the beach like like a beach bum. I love it,

799
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 1: but that chest hair breeze, I mean also it's a

800
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: it was a ship show, and it's going to be crazy.

801
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 1: It's gonna be really crazy. Watch bag. Oh God, give us,

802
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 1: give us some good content. Man, I can't wait. Did

803
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: you at least practice you're kissing? I can neither confirm

804
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 1: nor deny. Oh boy, please say, I can't wait. They

805
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: have gotten a little kissing practice in Paradise. How many?

806
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,520
Speaker 1: How many? How many people are we talking about? Just

807
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:33,879
Speaker 1: give us a rough estimate. Oh, twelve, twelve people, more

808
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:46,360
Speaker 1: than zero, less than less than two the entire cast. Okay, okay, okay, people, Connor,

809
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 1: I just expect big things from you. I'm excited to

810
00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 1: watch everything. I can't wait. Um. I mean, it has

811
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,760
Speaker 1: been such an absolute pleasure to have you on today,

812
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 1: and I can't even imagine how great it's going to

813
00:43:58,280 --> 00:43:59,839
Speaker 1: be when we can watch you grace us with your

814
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:03,640
Speaker 1: presence on our screens again. Before we let you go, though,

815
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 1: we ask all of our guests this overall, from your

816
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 1: entire time on Katie's season, what was your rose and

817
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:15,719
Speaker 1: what was your thorn? I love that. Okay, I'll start

818
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 1: with thorn and then we'll go with rows. Thorn was bashball.

819
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:21,959
Speaker 1: That's another thing I learned about myself is that I'm

820
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,760
Speaker 1: just not as competitive as a lot of the guys

821
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 1: were on that season. I love soccer. If we had

822
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: played soccer, I would have been at it. I would

823
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,959
Speaker 1: have been going for it. I never played football really

824
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 1: or anything like that. So wearing our tiny little speedo,

825
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 1: thaying with our like hearts and whatnot, and then going

826
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:43,399
Speaker 1: out and tackling each other full steam was not my

827
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: favorite moment of the day. And then seeing like I

828
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,279
Speaker 1: was right there when Michael got in the back and

829
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 1: so I was. I thought he was going to be paralyzed.

830
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:56,720
Speaker 1: So not a great momentum My wrote, can you two roses?

831
00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: Of course? Okay, okay, So my first one is, uh,

832
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: you saw none of this, but greg Grippo has an

833
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 1: alter ego named Gregory James who does poetry, and you

834
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:14,799
Speaker 1: saw him ready to poem. But but Gregory James is

835
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: something completely different. So Gregory James would write us these

836
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: poems and they were just like little high coups. But

837
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 1: every once in a while, every couple of days, he'd

838
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 1: be like, everybody, close your fucking eyes, and then he

839
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,919
Speaker 1: would just like recite a poem and the guys would

840
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 1: go crazy. We'd be like begging for him to write

841
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: another one. Honestly, that was one of my roses is

842
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:38,880
Speaker 1: Gregory James poetry, Gregory James love and everything that's so funny.

843
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:43,880
Speaker 1: Gregory Jamesames, who gave him that It was probably self proclaimed.

844
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I feel like it was a it

845
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 1: was an established personality well before the show. I have

846
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:52,360
Speaker 1: a hilarious I think he came in with Gregory James

847
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:58,280
Speaker 1: got it. And then my other rose would be honestly,

848
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:01,959
Speaker 1: the moment where I got to play Katie the song

849
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: sitting there on the couch and she cried. It was

850
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 1: just the most beautiful moment. And seeing because I didn't know,

851
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:11,959
Speaker 1: I thought, you know, I was like, oh, I wrote

852
00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 1: this song about how I feel and how I felt

853
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 1: watching the first night, I thought, she oh, that was

854
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 1: so sweet. But like to see how much it actually

855
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:21,319
Speaker 1: affected her and to see that, like it really brought

856
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 1: out real emotions for that, just like grab yeah, so

857
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:30,920

921
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 1: him between like the funny, the punny, the romantic, the musical,

922
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 1: the vulnerable, and now. It was just good to get

923
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 1: to know him on a deeper level. I'm so glad

924
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 1: that we were able to see him in that hot

925
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 1: seat during mental all and just share more of his

926
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:17,759

930
00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:28,799
