37
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: your work and you know what you do as a

38
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 2: wildlife conservationist. How you got into this. I mean, it's really.

39
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: Really rhinos rhinos.

40
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I took my granddall looking for turtles.

41
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 2: But I don't think that's where we're going, so tell us,

42
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 2: tell us.

43
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 3: But you know what's interesting is that's where it started

44
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 3: for me. That's where it started the interest and just

45
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 3: being at lakes up in Canada and at my cabin

46
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 3: up north.

47
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 4: And then that just kind of swear in Canada, I'm

48
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 4: it's so. I lived just outside of Toronto.

49
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 2: And my sister does where do you live?

50
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 4: Burlington, Hamilton?

51
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: I know it, yeah, right there Okay, so there's rhinos there, there's.

52
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 4: No rhinos there, there's turtles there. And after I started so, I.

53
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 3: You know, I grew up loving all the little amphibians

54
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 3: and reptiles and those things up here in Canada. And

55
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,239
Speaker 3: then I've always had a passion for wildlife and was

56
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 3: so intrigued by animals like rhinos and things through all

57
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 3: the documentaries and yeah, I mean over the progression of years,

58
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 3: it just kind of spiraled out control, and I continue

59
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 3: just to follow that. And then now I'm doing what

60
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 3: I'm doing now, which is such a long story as

61
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 3: to how I got here, but I'm right in to

62
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 3: think of it, I'd literally leave to South Africa and

63
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 3: Kenya to go.

64
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: I have a billion questions, of course, But what do

65
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: you say that Kathy and I joined you on one

66
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 1: of these little adventures.

67
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 4: It would be a.

68
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 1: Lot of fun.

69
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 4: I really would have you ever done anything like it

70
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 4: before you ever?

71
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm kind of scared.

72
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 2: I mean, I've searched for turtles, you know, in the

73
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 2: pond in Austin, Texas. I've looked for a turtle.

74
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: But I is, I do definitely want to know what

75
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: you do have coming up. But there's a quick question.

76
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: I have to ask what happened in Africa? You were

77
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: in the hospital. What what what happened?

78
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 4: So I.

79
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 3: Joined an anti poaching ranger program to be come certified

80
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 3: as a wildlife ranger out in South Africa, and about

81
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 3: three weeks into that, you have to sleep in your

82
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 3: boots basically like you have to be ready to go

83
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: at all times for poachers. So sleeping in your boot,

84
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 3: living in Africa, in South Africa, the moisture, the environment,

85
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 3: you're dirty, all of that blister said in essentially, and

86
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 3: I didn't take care of them. I didn't want to

87
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 3: starge just to know that I had an issue because

88
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 3: I didn't want to have to leave the course because

89
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 3: of my issue.

90
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 4: So I let fester and fester, and then sepsis cellu

91
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 4: lighta set in and then I had to get surgery

92
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 4: out there. It was, it was.

93
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: It was scared now, I mean, yes, do tell the truth.

94
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: I would have been shipping myself well.

95
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 3: I mean the way that they did the surgery out,

96
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 3: just like dicing me open and cutting it out with

97
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 3: no it was.

98
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 4: It was awful.

99
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: I don't wish Susan, he's a man. Nothing bothers.

100
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: Rhinos of course, he was good.

101
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 2: Really, I have a question, Blake, seriously, how big is poaching?

102
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: How big an issue?

103
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 4: Is that massive?

104
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 3: And I mean it's heavier for some species than others,

105
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 3: but it's it happens globally.

106
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 4: But you have more iconic species that get more of

107
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 4: the brunt of it, like rhinos. For the horns, that's

108
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 4: so much value. So depending on what they're being posted for.

109
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 4: But all animals have some type of value.

110
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: Wow.

111
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 4: Wow, in the black.

112
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 2: Market here we are talking about there's so many jokes

113
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 2: I could make about, you know, poaching women, poaching rhinos.

114
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 2: Let's just stick with the cars.

115
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 4: Respective God.

116
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 2: So I want to know. There's different endangered species every year.

117
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,239
Speaker 2: Which one are you working on right now?

118
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 4: Oh? She's uh, last thing I think. So.

119
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 3: I've started a company called the Soso, which essentially helps

120
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 3: many different nonprofits that specialize in different and different animals.

121
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 3: For example, is down in Peru, We're working with jaguars

122
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 3: and wildcats. And then I'm going out to South Africa

123
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 3: in a week and working with global conservation forces.

124
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 4: We're doing a rhino procedure. It's all about the rangers.

125
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 3: Then I go from there at Kenya and it's about

126
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 3: Elephants with Save the Elephants, So we really try to

127
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 3: There's so many that need help, so how do you

128
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 3: say no and focus on one? So we're really doing

129
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 3: our best effort to help as much as possible.

130
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 4: With where we can. Is just you know, the funding

131
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 4: and this and that, there's just so much that goes

132
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 4: into it that I wish it could be doing more,

133
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 4: But we're doing the best that we can.

134
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: Questions, I'm sorry, number one. I totally respect and admire

135
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 1: what you do. Is this costing to you or money?

136
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 4: So?

137
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, yeah, I mean the the issue is

138
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 3: that and why people people want to work with animals,

139
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 3: They want to work in conservation, but there's no money

140
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: in it. And so for me, I had to find

141
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 3: a way because I never take money from my nonprofit organizations.

142
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 3: If I'm going to go out there and help and

143
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 3: work with them, well I'm doing a disservice or going

144
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 3: against the whole purpose.

145
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 4: Of me getting them funding for the.

146
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 3: Exactly, So I never take from the nonprofits, which means

147
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 3: that I have to create expeditions with guests to have

148
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 3: money come in in different ways through expeditions and guests

149
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 3: on these impact conservation trips.

150
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: We could help raise a lot of.

151
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 2: The right But wait, wait, didn't you take a trip

152
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 2: with fellow Bachelor Nation people. Didn't you do that?

153
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 3: Yes, I've done I've done a few of those now.

154
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 3: So essentially, I'm trying to use influencers and their networks,

155
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 3: so influencing for impact in a sense, and trying to

156
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 3: utilize them in their platform to get messages across to

157
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 3: another large demographic of people and large audience.

158
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: And how does one date doing all this traveling? That's

159
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: where's that coming?

160
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 4: Listen.

161
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 3: I'm a very very confident guy, but this is one

162
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 3: avenue right now. I'm a little bit lost in trying

163
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 3: to navigate because it is extremely difficult and I don't

164
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 3: have the answer right now.

165
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 1: Well, maybe you've got to find somebody that likes doing

166
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: what you're doing.

167
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 3: Definitely would help help. There's just very slim pickings.

168
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 2: Or maybe maybe Blake tell us wait, yeah, trust me,

169
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 2: but maybe Blake. Right now, you're supposed to be focusing

170
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 2: on what you're focusing on, and you know the women

171
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 2: will come your way when it's time.

172
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's the way I'm looking at it

173
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 3: for the most part, for sure.

174
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 2: Okay, I want to know how serious have you ever

175
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 2: gotten Have you ever gotten closed? Have you ever felt

176
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: like this is the one.

177
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 4: With with any of them? From the actual show or

178
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 4: outside of that.

179
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 2: I fell in the blank.

180
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, but before I went on the show,

181
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 3: there was a a girl was with three three and

182
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 3: a half years, and I at one point did think

183
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 3: that that was going to be it.

184
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: Did you break up with her because you went on

185
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 1: the show?

186
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 2: No?

187
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 4: Imagine, imagine that was one of those I'm smarter, I'm

188
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 4: smarter than that.

189
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 2: You know what.

190
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: It came out on the tabloids.

191
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 3: Everywhere, But no, I mean I thought I did think

192
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 3: I was close At one point. I just felt I've

193
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 3: felt very settled in that relationship and things were good.

194
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 3: It just didn't feel great. It felt hell back in ways,

195
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 3: and so it wasn't out of a lack of love.

196
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 3: It was just a lack of We weren't getting the

197
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 3: most out of each other in life.

198
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 2: That takes a lot of courage, and it was so hard.

199
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was like But the thing is, the thing

200
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 5: that I love about it the most is is now

201
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 5: that I I see her doing the things that I

202
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 5: kind of was resentful like she wasn't.

203
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 4: Now I'm seeing her living and like really becoming her

204
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 4: own self. And I'm like, you know, as much as

205
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 4: it would sucked in that moment, like you're doing all

206
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 4: the things that are now you're living and.

207
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 3: So I see that now and it's like, you know,

208
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 3: she might have felt like it was the wrong decision

209
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 3: in that time, but now look at you and look

210
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 3: what everything you're doing, and she needed to I think

211
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 3: solo grab life a little.

212
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: Maybe she thanks you for that.

213
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 2: Right Basically she'll tell me that I wouldn't mean I

214
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 2: wouldn't either. I wouldn't either. Wait, I have a question, though,

215
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 2: so would you like is that a problem? Would you like?

216
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: The woman that has her independence and does what she

217
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 2: wants to do and you're doing what you want to do.

218
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 2: And if that's the case, that's a tough balance. So

219
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 2: what's your what's your take now that you've tried in

220
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 2: a few different ways.

221
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think there's two different scenarios there.

222
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 4: I think there's the exact one that you mentioned where

223
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 4: someone that has is very established, knows what they want,

224
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 4: is independent, has a life that they're pursuing and passion

225
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 4: about something. Because I now that I'm in that position,

226
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,439
Speaker 4: I know how much value I put into someone supporting

227
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 4: me and let tell me a go live it, go

228
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 4: do it.

229
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 3: So if I have someone that also has that, I

230
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 3: respect it so much that I want to see like

231
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 3: that growth like blossom, do it right because I get that.

232
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 3: But on the flip side of somebody who's also wants

233
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:43,959
Speaker 3: to be a part of some of the stuff I'm

234
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 3: doing and wants to take on that journey with.

235
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 4: Me too, come along like it's your good I just

236
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 4: for sure.

237
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 3: I mean there's endless experiences that I have this whole

238
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 3: this whole May Africa trip.

239
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 4: At the end of it, I know I'll be sitting

240
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 4: there being like I wish like.

241
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 1: I had going it was somebody.

242
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 4: And that happens throughout the year on all these projects

243
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 4: I'm working on. So it's like, but I know that

244
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 4: time will come. It will come.

245
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 3: It's just like we're missing some great opportunities here to

246
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 3: like make memories.

247
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 4: So that's the one thing that I find on these trips.

248
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know, name the one you enjoyed the most,

249
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: Paradise or Batchel, what one was more fun?

250
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 4: The experience Paradise certainly was more fun for sure.

251
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 1: Why because you make out and lay on the beach or.

252
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 2: No because he likes nowhere conditioning and.

253
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 4: Sure, yeah, I think I think well one, I think that,

254
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 4: you know, being the third time doing the experience in

255
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 4: general is super comfortable.

256
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, in it been there, done that before where

257
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 3: I didn't get overwhelmed and freaked out about the things

258
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 3: everyone else was.

259
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 4: So it was fun kind of watching it all happened.

260
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: I remember, looking, I've been there.

261
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 4: I think the other ones just you.

262
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 3: Know, it's very stressful competing over one like it's just

263
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 3: it's a lot more stressful of like for one.

264
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: Person, did we want stress?

265
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 2: We want stressed?

266
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 1: Comes with age?

267
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 2: A lot of things coming, like you have no idea,

268
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 2: you have no idea? What comes with age? Wait? I

269
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 2: have a question? Would you ever do another reality TV show?

270
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 4: Yeah? I mean listen, I think yes, as long as

271
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 4: it felt. It fell into the timing of I don't

272
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 4: want to take away from the things that I'm doing, which.

273
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 1: Is like makes me not between safaris or.

274
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, like the thing is which like how do you

275
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 3: decide going to Africa for a month and working with

276
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 3: rhinos and elephants or like going on a reality show

277
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 3: for a month.

278
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 4: It's like, you.

279
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: Know, people, you take the best and we'll have one

280
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 1: done there in Africa.

281
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 4: That that would be an experience for sure. I mean

282
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 4: that would make some TV.

283
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: Is there any place that you dream of that you'd

284
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,959
Speaker 1: like to go to that you have it yet?

285
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 4: Yes? I want. I'm all the extremes, So I think

286
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 4: like going to like Antarctica or something where it's like

287
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 4: I'm very out of my element and we're going all

288
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 4: the way north.

289
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 2: And I was thinking, Canada offers a lot you can go,

290
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 2: you know, exactly exactly the northwestern territories.

291
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 4: Yeah.

292
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to go up there, like to none

293
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,679
Speaker 3: of it, see how they is indigenous and the culture

294
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 3: is there, and really dive into that. I think that

295
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 3: that type is like what you know feeds me that

296
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 3: type of experience.

297
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: But ultimately, do you want a life partner, a marriage

298
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 1: of children? Do you want a family or no?

299
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 4: No question?

300
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 3: You know I battle that right now because all of

301
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 3: my best friends here back home where I live, they're

302
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 3: all engaged, they're all.

303
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 4: Married, all kids, second kids. I'm the only one.

304
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: What are you waiting for?

305
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 4: Men?

306
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 2: But he's living his life, you.

307
00:13:57,880 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 4: Know, trying.

308
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 3: I'm trying to look at the benefit of what I

309
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 3: am able to do right now and live like, think

310
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 3: about the pause that you're doing.

311
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 4: These are our experiences you can't potentially do later.

312
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 3: Live in that. Soak them all in. What I say

313
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 3: is the best is yet to come. With all that,

314
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 3: I know that I'm still going to have kids. That

315
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 3: is going to come and when it does is going

316
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 3: to beautiful.

317
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, So my question for you that you know,

318
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 2: we can be honest as far as your dating life

319
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:28,120

00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 1: What about Europe? Do you go to Italy or France

381
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: or have you been to any of those?

382
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,679
Speaker 3: I'm saving that for when I do find my partner.

383
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 3: I'm doing all the stuff I love to do now,

384
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 3: so when she wants to go do these things.

385
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 1: Oh that's good. You just touched me right here a

386
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 1: little bit. This is good. I went by myself a

387
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: couple of times.

388
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sitting here thinking, who do we know we

389
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 2: can fix them up with?

390
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: I know my daughters?

391
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:36,159
Speaker 4: Are you damn it?

392
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 2: So it's mine?

393
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 4: None come to mind. Huh.

394
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: So back to my question, Yes, what if anything, would

395
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: you ask us about anything, whether it's dating, reality TV?

396
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,719
Speaker 4: Well, can I use it? Can I use you like

397
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 4: to my own benefit?

398
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 2: Yeah?

399
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,360
Speaker 4: Sure, like seeing the situation that.

400
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 3: I'm in and having a decent understanding of the position

401
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 3: that I am in. If you had advice and trying

402
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 3: to maneuver through a career like mine and trying to

403
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 3: find somebody, what are those pieces of advice and what

404
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 3: really do I need to be more cognizant of or

405
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 3: aware of, or like, what is the woman actually looking for?

406
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 4: You're the woman dating me right now, and you know,

407
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 4: and I've just told you all these things from across

408
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 4: the table. How how are you actually feeling? Because everyone

409
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 4: tells me that they'd be okay with it.

410
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: That's bullshit, straight up bullshit. I disagree. I love the

411
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 1: fact that you're open and honest when you meet somebody,

412
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 1: But for me, I mean, like, get this out of

413
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: your system, love, and that we could go play little

414
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: little things on your safaris or your but you have

415
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: to live you and get that out of your system

416
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 1: before you want to nail down a big relationship because

417
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 1: and I know that everybody's going to go with what

418
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: you love.

419
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,679
Speaker 2: And this is gonna be a great surprise that I

420
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 2: disagree with, Susan. I think I love you though. I

421
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 2: think like that if you do the things you love

422
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 2: and where your passions are, the right people will come

423
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 2: into your life. And that's always my advice. Do the

424
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:23,120
Speaker 2: things you love that bring your heart joy, that give you,

425
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,640
Speaker 2: that energize you, and the right people come into your lives.

426
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,360
Speaker 1: What he is and that's what I'm saying, Well do that,

427
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: but not begun ho and look for a serious relationship

428
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: in Canada at home because you're leaving.

429
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 5: Now.

430
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 4: See, I will say, there is a nice thing about

431
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 4: what I am doing. Okay, in a sense, say for

432
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 4: three weeks, I come back and I don't have to

433
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 4: be I can work from there. I can go and

434
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 4: be with her for a.

435
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 1: Couple of weeks works okay.

436
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 4: You know, like I'm not always Abra. I always come back.

437
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: And then offer to take her with you once or twice.

438
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,640
Speaker 1: If you do that, then yes, a little.

439
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 3: Bit, yeah, for sure, I understand what the things would

440
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,479
Speaker 3: need to happen if I were to get in that position.

441
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 2: You seem like a guy with a big heart, and

442
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 2: it's going to happen for you. It's going to happen

443
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 2: for you. It's just it's just not your time yet.

444
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 1: And you know, start that vision board thing they up

445
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: there to the universe. You know, the universe I learned

446
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 1: does not understand English. It's a vibe that we give.

447
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: So you have to truly believe it all the way

448
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: down to your two's.

449
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 2: And I think the animals that you are helping will

450
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 2: send the right people your way. I mean that I

451
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 2: really believe that good.

452
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: You don't sound like a really good guy.

453
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 4: You know, this is what I this is what I vow. Right.

454
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 4: It's like all I know, all the good that I

455
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 4: am doing, and keep be doing the funding, awareness, all

456
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 4: the stuff, all the possitive and when I care about

457
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 4: animals as much as I do, knowing how much, and

458
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 4: when you start working with animals closely like that, and

459
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 4: you see the impact and the positive that you can do.

460
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 4: For me to now take massive steps back to make

461
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 4: sure I can just find my partner.

462
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 3: Right now, I think it's a disservice to to everybody and.

463
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 4: Animals when it's it.

464
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 3: And I have this unique ability to do what I'm doing,

465
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 3: so I think that it's important that I keep doing

466
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 3: that right.

467
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,239
Speaker 4: A person will absolutely.

468
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 3: Mend into and I'm trying to continuously believe in that.

469
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 2: How do you feel about seventy year olds? Blake? I'm

470
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 2: not that.

471
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,120
Speaker 4: Much older, but you know, I never I never say.

472
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 2: Never, never say never.

473
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 1: So here's a good question. And I've asked a lot

474
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: of men this. Men sometimes will say they want an

475
00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:00,040
Speaker 1: independent woman, but do they really.

476
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 4: Or do you really?

492
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: now than I did at your age of will. And

493
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: let me ask you this, after coming off the show,

494
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:07,359

500
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 3: what I actually want are still there. As I've matured,
