Speaker 1: thank you for having me. Thank you so much. So

35
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: tell us a little bit about your life right now

36
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: post Bachelor. It's been man, it's been almost a decade.

37
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 1: Since a decade, it does not seem like it's been

38
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: that long. Wow, that is mind blowing. Um, do you

39
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: still see the effects of the Bachelor on your life today?

40
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 1: Do do people still come up to you? Not as

41
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: often as they used to, but it still does happen.

42
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 1: I you know, Halloween, I was still dressed up with

43
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: a wig and I still had people recognizing me. So

44
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: I guess my my smile kind of gives me away.

45
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 1: Has it affected your life overall, like the way that

46
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 1: some things will always get pressed and maybe you're dating life? Uh,

47
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: you know, the first few years after The Bachelor were

48
00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: really difficult because it kind of affected everything, uh, friendships, dating, um,

49
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 1: even your career. I mean it's hard. People don't really

50
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 1: take you too seriously when you're a reality star. So

51
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: it took me a good five years after The Bachelor

52
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: to kind of, um see a change in that. Uh.

53
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: It's still affects it to an extent, but not as

54
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: bad as it used to. Um. When it comes to dating, yeah,

55
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: it was difficult because you never knew if people were

56
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: really dating you for the right reasons or not. I'm

57
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: saying with friends. Uh, luckily and it's been ten years.

58
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: So I have a you know, my boyfriend. I've been

59
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: together for two and a half years. We plan on

60
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: getting married and having you know, a couple of babies.

61
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: So love life wise, it's going really good. Uh. Friendship wise,

62
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: I have a really really great circle of women in

63
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: my life now, which was hard to come by. Um.

64
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: So that is something I just I hold very dearly,

65
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: is those friendships I have now. Um. And work wise,

66
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: I have my own recruiting company, uh, which is Change

67
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: of Pace. I started in about a year ago. And

68
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: I'm also doing real estate. So yeah, my real estate

69
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: company is actually will you accept this home? Oh my goodness,

70
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: that is amazing. Where can then where can people check

71
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: you out if they're looking for real estate? And from

72
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: what area? Dot accept this home? Dot com. I used

73
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 1: to have a buildboard up in Orlando and it was

74
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 1: me holding a rose and it said, you know, accept

75
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 1: this home and had like the rose was kind of

76
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: almost like the Disney one and it's kind of building

77
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 1: a house. So it was pretty pretty catchy genius marketing.

78
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 1: That is amazing. Um. All right, so it seems like

79
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: everything is kind of come together in your life, which

80
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: is I'm very happy for you, especially since there was

81
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: some rough years over there. But I want to know, um,

82
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: would you ever do reality TV again? He went back

83
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: and you did Bachelor Pad with your ex, So I

84
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: mean you're a risk taker in that department. Yeah, you know,

85
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 1: I'm not too big of a ristaker anymore. UM. You know,

86
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: it's been many years since I've done anything UM on television,

87
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 1: you know, related to you know, reality TV stuff. I

88
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 1: think the probably one of the only shows I would

89
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 1: even consider doing would be UM. My boyfriend I were

90
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: talking about this the other day. He actually used to

91
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: be a a professional basketball players. Seems like really athletic. UM

92
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: the not Survivor what's the one, amazing, amazing Race? So

93
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: I would do Amazing Race. I think that that is

94
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: a really cool show. I really went to it. I

95
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: didn't even know if it's still on UM. And Dancing

96
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: with the Stars, I know I wanted to do Dance

97
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: with the Stars always. I did get a chance to

98
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: dance on it, which is really fun. UM, But to

99
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: be able to compete on it in dance, I think

100
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: that would be probably the only two things I would consider.

101
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: I'm a competitive person, so I need to be on

102
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: something where I'm going to like work towards winning something,

103
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: and I don't want to win. A guy kind of

104
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: lost in that department last time, Well you've won, but

105
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 1: you also lost, Like, yeah, I don't think you were, Um,

106
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: so you have a new boyfriend. Can you tell us

107
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: a little about him, How long you've been together, how

108
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: you met? Yeah, we've been together for two and a

109
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 1: half years. We actually celebrated our tear anniversary. We went

110
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: on a trip to Europe for three weeks, which was

111
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: I'd never been. So he took me to my um,

112
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: you know, my grandparents are from. We visited his grandparents

113
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: in Bosnia, which is where he's from. Um, it was.

114
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: We went to Paris. It was just it couldn't have

115
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 1: been more perfect. We met though through mutual friends. We were,

116
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: you know, at a birthday party and kind of, you know,

117
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: looking at each other across the we were. It was

118
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: a late party and we're kind of looking at each

119
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: other and caught my eye and a friend of ours

120
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: kind of saw us looking at each other and she

121
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: introduced us and said, actually, you two would be perfect together.

122
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 1: And she was right, you know, then together ever since.

123
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: I remember going home that night and I called my mom.

124
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: I said, Mom, I met the man I'm gonna married.

125
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: And she's like what, and I was like, yes, I

126
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:05,919
Speaker 1: met him today and he is perfect. I love those stories.

127
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: He's my ink to my gang. I'm you know, loud,

128
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: and I'm super fun and I love to be around people,

129
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: and he's calm and he keeps me level headed and

130
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: he you know, he doesn't feel my crazy when I'm crazy. Um,

131
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: we just we balanced each other so so well, it's

132
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: it's really really nice. That's so nice. You guys, we're

133
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: talking about having kids in the future, and you were

134
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: very open a couple of years ago and you had

135
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: a miscarriage of twins. They had twin twins US and

136
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: twin transfusion syndrome, which is when can you explain that

137
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: a little bit to our audience. Yeah, So there's a

138
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: couple of different types of twins. There's twins that have

139
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: their own amniotic sac and have their own placenta, right,

140
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: and the placenta is actually what UM feeds them as baby,

141
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: that's where the nutrients comes from. There's twin is that

142
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: share an amniotic sac and share a placenta. Then there's

143
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: twins that have their own amniotic sac but share a placenta.

144
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: So that's what I had. So my girls were in

145
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: their own separate bags, right, but they shared a placenta.

146
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: And sometimes what happens is UM kind of explain it.

147
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: So people can understand is think of like a vein

148
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: going from the placenta to the baby, right, and that's

149
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: providing nutrients to each of them each have their own.

150
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: One baby grew a much larger vein, so it's taking

151
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: a lot more of the nutrients than the other twin was.

152
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: So what happens is that twin now grows a lot

153
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 1: faster and bigger, and the other one doesn't get as

154
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: much nutrients and doesn't grow like it should grow. So

155
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: what happened was because the other twin grew so much bigger,

156
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: so much faster than the other one. My water actually

157
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: broke at five months early, so I went into labor

158
00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: and unfortunately they weren't old enough to breathe, so they

159
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: were fully developed and they were born four weeks earlier.

160
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: They could have survived. It's it's still to this day.

161
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: I did four weeks later. Four weeks is all they

162
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:16,839
Speaker 1: needed to be as four weeks older. Yeah, yeah, it

163
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: was a really traumatic thing. I had to um. I

164
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 1: had to deliver one and then I had d C

165
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,559
Speaker 1: like they go in and they had to remove the

166
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: other twin um and I started going into septic shock.

167
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: UM after my water had broken, I refused to let

168
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: them go because they saw a heartbeats. So about two

169
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: days into it, um, they said, you know, there there's

170
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 1: no heartbeats, so we have to you know, you have

171
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 1: to give birth to one of these babies or we

172
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: have to go in and remove because you're going to

173
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: get really sick. And um, I ended up getting really sick.

174
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 1: I my fever went up to like one hundred and

175
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: four and just kept going. So I remember just like shaking.

176
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 1: My whole body was just shaking, and the nurses were

177
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: literally just like throwing ice on me, like backs of ice,

178
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: and um mm. I actually donated both my girls to

179
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: research to help you know, other mothers and them to learn,

180
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: you know, why this happens. And so uh yeah, it's

181
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: taken me a few years to kind of accepted because

182
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: it is the hardest thing is accepting it. And recently

183
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,679
Speaker 1: we had fratern fertility testing done um to see if

184
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: I would be able to have you know, babies again.

185
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: Um And as of a week ago, all my stuff

186
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: came back normals, really really good news. Yeah, I'm so

187
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: happy for you. Yeah. So yes, I think we're gonna

188
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: start dying because you know, I want two or three

189
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 1: and I want him now. Yeah awesome. Um, well recently,

190
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: you you're pretty open about the plastic surgery that you had.

191
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: It was a tiny tuck, right, No, I had a

192
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: body Well. You know what's funny is I read the

193
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: US Weekly and how completely incorrect it was. I had

194
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: one procedure done actually and what was that not in?

195
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: What I did was it's called body scope body sculpting,

196
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: where basically they go in and make these little tiny incisions. Um.

197
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: Literally the incision is the size of your pinky nail,

198
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 1: like the tip of your pinky ails. How little the

199
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 1: incision is. Um. And they go in and they basically

200
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: just do a really small amount of light though. So

201
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: I had kind of like a pregnancy pouch on my

202
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 1: lower stomach. So they went in there and they removed that,

203
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: you know the fact that I had gained and then

204
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: you know, they did a little bit on my arms,

205
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 1: back my arms and the center of my legs and

206
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: behind my legs. Um, kind of just make me look

207
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: like I did before. Because during my pregnancy I was

208
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: having a really hard time eating. I was throwing up

209
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: a lot. So the doctor literally were like, just eat,

210
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: eat whatever you want, just eat. So I got into

211
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: a you know diet where I breakfast every morning and

212
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: I would snack and then I have lunch, then another snack,

213
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: and then dinner, and then I wake up in then

214
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: all night and have peanut butter and jelly sandwich and origin.

215
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: This sounds like a dream. So I started getting weight,

216
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 1: which was good, That's what I needed to But then,

217
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 1: you know, after my miscarriage, my body was kind of

218
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: still on that diet, so I kept still eating that way,

219
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: and then, you know, for the first year after that,

220
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 1: I was really really depressed and I didn't want to

221
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 1: work out. I didn't want to go out. I just

222
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: didn't want to do anything. Like I just wanted to

223
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: be this home body. I didn't want to be around people.

224
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: It was really hard for me. So then I just

225
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 1: kind of kept gaining weight. I got up to like

226
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty pounds, and just so you know,

227
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: on the show, I was a hundred twenty pounds barely.

228
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: I know, when people see me, you know, before the pregnancy,

229
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: everyone's like, why you're so tiny in person. I was like,

230
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: I know, TV really does make just like a lot

231
00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 1: than um. So I just wanted that little bit of weight,

232
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: you know, taken off, just so I kind of could

233
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: look in the mirror and not feel um that loss anymore.

234
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: It's really hard because every single day I would I

235
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 1: would get up and I would get ready, and I

236
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: would look at myself, and every time I looked at

237
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 1: my body, I thought I would think of my girls,

238
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 1: and it just became this just pain every single day,

239
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: and I needed to not feel that anymore so I

240
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: can recover and I can move past it. And so

241
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: that's where we are now. You have you obviously were

242
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: kind of I don't want to say forced to be

243
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: honest about the miscarriage, but since you did deliver them

244
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: at five months, um, and you had already announced that

245
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: you're pregnant, you had to be honest with the following

246
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: about it. But there's a lot of taboo. I did

247
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: a whole Um. I have another podcast called I Don't

248
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 1: Get It, and we did a whole I Don't Get

249
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 1: miscarriages and all the taboos that come along with it,

250
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,719
Speaker 1: and kind of how women just feel shamed that, you know,

251
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: you can't even announce your probably mine until three months

252
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: because of a risk that it may you know, fall apart.

253
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 1: Is there anything that you want to share with our

254
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 1: audience about just women and how frequent miscarriages are, and

255
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,079
Speaker 1: how they should be able to just talk freely about

256
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: it because so many women go through it. I think

257
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: it's one and ten. What is it, one in five

258
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: women will experience it or something like that, something pretty

259
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: close to that. UM. I think the crazy number is

260
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: one in five pregnancies and in miscarriages. Actually, oh, that's it.

261
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: That was one of the five pregnancies will end in miscarriage.

262
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 1: Most miscarriages do happen within the first uh first month

263
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 1: or first three months usually. UM. To have a miscarriage

264
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 1: five plus months is pretty rare, and you kind of

265
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: see those in very rare situations kind of, you know,

266
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: with twins especially. I knew I was a high risk ignancy. UM.

267
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: But it is a taboo and you don't hear people

268
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: talk about it. Women do feel ashamed of it, which

269
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 1: they shouldn't. It's not their fault. And I think that

270
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: was one of the main reasons why I wanted to

271
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: open up and talk about it, is because when it

272
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: happened to me, I felt so alone. I felt ashamed

273
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: that I felt so I didn't know what to do,

274
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 1: and it wasn't until it happened that my mom started

275
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: opening up about her miscarriages. And you know, I was

276
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: an eight, I was a rainbow baby for my mom.

277
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: My sister was a rainbow baby. So my mom had

278
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: actually had a miscarriage before me, several after me, but

279
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: you didn't know, you know, I knew she had had

280
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 1: a miscarriage. I didn't know to the extent of the night.

281
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 1: Didn't know when they happened. I didn't know much about it,

282
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: you know, because she just didn't talk about it. So

283
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: I learned that, you know, she had had some long

284
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 1: miscarriages that happened months down the road when she was pregnant,

285
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: and then she had something happened early on, but she

286
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: had she had experienced the pain I've gone through, and um,

287
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 1: you know, hearing her talk about it, it made me

288
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: feel um if it made me feel safe, I didn't

289
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: feel ashamed anymore. I felt more comfortably able to talk

290
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: to her about it. Uh. And then after that, you know,

291
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: there was other family members and really good friends of mine,

292
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 1: because you know, the first couple of weeks after it happened,

293
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: I was in bed rest and I didn't talk about

294
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: it yet. It wasn't until after you know, that I

295
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: wrote the post and announced it and literally the shelves

296
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 1: had just been posted with UM a magazine about my

297
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: gender review and I'm thinking, oh my god. UM. So

298
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: my close friends and family knew about it, and people

299
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: started opening up to me and talking to me, and

300
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: it blew my mind that some of my best friends

301
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: that I know everything about had never shared it with me,

302
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: or shared it with anybody UM or family members had

303
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: you know, had these miscarriages and they don't talk about it.

304
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: And I, you know, I didn't understand. I said, why

305
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: don't Why don't we talk about this between each other?

306
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: I go, because now that we are talking about it,

307
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: we all are feeling a healing, like we feel like

308
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: we are healing finally UM. And I think even with

309
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,239
Speaker 1: my mom, you know, talking to me about it, she

310
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,120
Speaker 1: felt like after thirty years, she's finally now healing. And

311
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: a lot of things, especially with pain, we kind of

312
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: push it down. And you know, one thing, you know,

313
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: I did talk to a therapist UM for a little while,

314
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: and once they say is when when you push those UM,

315
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: those feelings down, the bad feelings, right, they actually create

316
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 1: you suppressing good feelings UM. And they create this UM

317
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: very like, I don't know how to explain it. Um,

318
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: they just make you very numb to anything good bad

319
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Um, And you don't want that to happen.

320
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 1: So she says, the best thing to do is talk

321
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 1: about it. It just talked about it. I know that

322
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: sounds so cliche, but it is talk about it. And

323
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: so I knew, being in the public eye, I had

324
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: to let people know what's going on, you know. I

325
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: remember in the hospital or not in the hospital. When

326
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: I first got out of the hospital, I was still

327
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 1: getting text messages and messages through fans telling them congratulations.

328
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: I like. And I had a couple of my girlfriends

329
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: who had sent me at sea gifts for for me

330
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 1: that I still haven't opened. I still have them. They

331
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 1: told me when they found out about the mistage. They said,

332
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: don't open the packages. You know we sent you, keep them,

333
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: save them. You will be a mom one day, and

334
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 1: when you became a mom, opened our presence for you.

335
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: So I still have those wrapped up. Never looked at him.

336
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 1: I don't even know what they are. UM. So I

337
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 1: knew I had to come out and I had to

338
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: talk about it. And when I did, the amount of

339
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: support and women who reached out to me and told

340
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: me about their own stories. Um they were really it

341
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: was really sad, but all of a sudden, I just

342
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: had this circle of women who we could support each

343
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: other and lean on each other and talk about things.

344
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 1: And there was also a lot of really positive stories.

345
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 1: There was women that would talk about their miscarriages and

346
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 1: now their rainbow babies or they've got three kids now,

347
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: and so then it created this just overflow of hope

348
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 1: for me and I realized it's not the end of

349
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: the world. And I know this sucks, and I know

350
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: it hurts, it's hard, but guess what, I'm still gonna

351
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: be able to be a mom one day. Whether I

352
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 1: have my own baby or I adopt the baby, I'm

353
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: still going to be a mom one day. Um. So

354
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: having those women a part of my life, um, really

355
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: was what helped me kind of pick myself back up

356
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: and keep going. I'm so grateful for you for sharing that,

357
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: and I think that so many other people need to

358
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 1: be as open about it as you because it does

359
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: help that healing process. And I just wanted to leave

360
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 1: by saying that the next time you're on this podcast,

361
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 1: I hope it's you talking about your rainbow babies. I

362
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,639
Speaker 1: really and if you come on, if you want to

363
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 1: talk about the babes. Yeah, well, you know, we're we

364
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: are in the process of you know, trying but not

365
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: trying but still kind of shying, like you to pull

366
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: the goalie, but you're not doing as much effort as

367
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 1: they require. Possibly think we're not you know, planning it out,

368
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 1: but we're not preventing it from happening kind of thing.

369
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 1: So if it happens, I think we'll be really happy

370
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,400
Speaker 1: it happens. But I think that sometimes when you put

371
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 1: too much pressure on it, that actually prevents you from

372
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: getting pregnant. So we're just you know, just letting you Yes,

373
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 1: it's enjoying the joy. Um. Yeah, and we know we've

374
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 1: discussed their options, and we've discussed adopting, which is definitely

375
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: something we'd be open to. I even told him even

376
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: if we have our own kid, I'd still be open

377
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,159
Speaker 1: to adopting. Um. And I don't even care to adopt

378
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 1: a baby, you know, I'm okay adopting a toddler, you know,

379
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 1: I'm I don't know, I just want children really bad.

380
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 1: All right, Well, we really hope that you have that soon.

381
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: You're so sweet. I love getting to know you over

382
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: the past twenty minutes or so. Um like, I just

383
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: wish you to the very best. You're so sweet. Um.

384
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: All right, well, Vienna, thank you for joining us for

Speaker 1: talk to you again. Yes, I hope that it is

387
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:20,199
Speaker 1: with some good news next. Al right, bye bye. We

388
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 1: all know that sleep is important, but consider someone who

389
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: you know who's in the military or veteran. Imagine how

390
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 1: much a good night's sleep means to them. From military

Speaker 1: optimum sleep environment is sixty five degrees. That sounds chilly

395
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,880

398
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,719
Speaker 1: do anything to create or shield heat. That's actually super

399
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: interesting to me. A perfect night's sleep is it is

400
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 1: a night that I don't have to set the alarm

401
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: because then I don't have that anxiety in the back

402

Speaker 1: of my mind about how like when I'm gonna have

Speaker 1: and Joe. Last time we had you guys on, it

432
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 1: was July and you were kind of settling in your

433
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 1: new place together. How has it been living together? It's

434
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 1: been great. Yeah, it's been fun. I mean, like, are

435
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,239
Speaker 1: you going to ever say anything other than that it's

436
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: been great? I mean, I mean you have one I

437
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 1: guess the only thing. We fight? I mean we getting

438
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 1: fights every so often. I feel like we're professional arguers.

439
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 1: I think that's how it is when you get to this,

440
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 1: like like a year and a half into a relationship,

441
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 1: there's just a lot more bickering because you're so comfortable

442
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: with each other that you don't keep any annoyances in.

443
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, we're really open with each other. She's

444
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: she's a good arguer. So it's yeah, you know, sometimes

445
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 1: with drives me crazy. I can't. I'm the kind of

446
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: person that this is my tea. Okay, just six so

447
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: on the type of person that if if we're fighting,

448
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: can't quote a bad address me. Joe is always the

449
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: bigger person. I'm so stubborn. What I do is like

450
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: I'll leave the room. I'll go I'll go into then

451
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: and then I'll be like I'll be sitting there and

452
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,120
Speaker 1: I'll be fuming, and then like half our way, I'll

453
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 1: kick the door back, and you make any sense, It's true.

454
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,119
Speaker 1: It's funny. I feel like I over I analyze conversations

455
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: and like I remember every detail of it. So you know,

456
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: it's it's hard. It's hard to escape me being right

457
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: that I've been right, I've been right, Joe has been right.

458
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: I think two times Joe, I think he'll relate with

459
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: me in the way that like sometimes I'll say something

460
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:46,600
Speaker 1: and Jared will pick it like he is so specific

461
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: about word choice. I'm like, okay, that is he'll interpret

462
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: it like one way. He's like, you said these words together,

463
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: and I'm like, that was not the connotation that I

464
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,639
Speaker 1: was in Are you kidding me? Like, you know, I

465
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 1: didn't mean that. He's like, well, that's what you said,

466
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: and I'm like, are you kidding me? So I feel

467
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: like Kendle is the exact same way, where she's gonna

468
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: like analyze about intention. I'll be proving a point and

469
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: then she'll bring back like what I said, and she'll

470
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,400
Speaker 1: just keep saying it, and I'll be like, all right, fine,

471
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: I said that and I didn't mean it. Don't even

472
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: know what I said. All right, I just said it.

473
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: I wish you know what's so great? I feel like

474
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: we just need to be more open about especially since

475
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: we're in like these public relationships where everything that they

476
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: see on Instagram is pretty and I'm not like, I

477
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: don't think you need to go on Instagram and be like,

478
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: our relationship isn't as wonderful as it seems to do

479
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 1: this to do that, but I think it interviews, it's

480
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: fun to be like, no, like, of course, it's not

481
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: fluffy and pleasant in our house all the time exactly.

482
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: I mean, we get along along easy for me to

483
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,400
Speaker 1: say it's pretty latly, it's been pretty fluffy. I don't

484
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: think we've had an argument, but it's it's coming, and

485
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna tell you we're traveling. So tomorrow

486
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: we're going to yeah, Japan, I don't know. I don't

00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,400
Speaker 1: a lot of traveling that. We're going to Chicago for Thanksgiving. Yeah,

490
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: the first time. I'm actually going to Joe's families in

491
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 1: Chicago for Thanksgiving and for Christmas. What are you guys

492
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,720

493
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 1: into my place, so it's the first switch off. I

494
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: think we're going to do l A for Christmas. I

495
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: may stay in Chicago Christmas Eve and then fly out

496
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,439
Speaker 1: on the morning because he were in l A all

497
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 1: the time and he doesn't get to see his family

498
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: as much. So but that's different with us. We have

499
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 1: both these coast families, so you know, one for one

500
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 1: once for the other. His parents are going to our

501
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: place for Thanksgiving. Now that's really it's really the in

502
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: laws get along. So well that's great, it's a blessing.

503
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 1: But I was like, but for Christmas, I don't get

504
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 1: my parents because my dad asked to work the day after. Okay,

505
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 1: so is this fair breakup? Right? Anyway, Let's go back

506
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 1: to your trip. You're going to Japan. You guys argue

507
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 1: more when you're in travel mode. No, but I think

508
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 1: after after the four weeks of traveling being together, Well,

509
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: we're together all the time exactly, but there are like

510
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 1: stressful times when traveling, especially in a country that doesn't

511
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 1: primarily speak English and trying to not knowing how to

512
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: navigate the bus, the buses or the subways or anything

513
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 1: like that. So you know, stresses will be high and

514
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure that'll yeah. I just I just know I

515
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: know not to get into Joe's way when he chooses restaurants.

516
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:50,479
Speaker 1: I love control. I've planned talk about what you were

517
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: telling me last night with the law recommendation. So you

00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: guys all know A Lawn, the former executive producer of

00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 1: Japan three times a year just to eat, you guys,

523
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: like he likes the culture at all, but he will

524
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: like make a last minute reservation like flight in reservation

525
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: if he can get in somewhere just to eat and

526
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 1: then he'll fly back like hours later. It's nutty. Well,

527
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: it's so it's so difficult to get into these restaurants

528
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: you need for So he gave me like thirty recommendations. Um,

529
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 1: and I couldn't get into like fifteen of them because

530
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: you need sixty days advances. In Japan, they don't ground there, Like, hey,

531
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 1: if you you need a reservation, yeah, like you, I don't.

532
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,040

00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: we looking forward to eating? She's doing well? I mean

534
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: obviously sushi. I'm not a big role guy. I just

535
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 1: like to cut pieces the fresh salmon. I'm all about that.

536
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 1: Santa kinda loves salmon. Joe's really into tuna. I love

537
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: I love tuna. I think you're either a salmon person

538
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: or a tuna person. Yeah. I take tuna over salmon.

539
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, well I take I think salmon over tuna.

540
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. I don't know there's a lot she's doing salmon.

541
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a lot of salmon in Japan.

542
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: I don't think that's like the main fish. No, I

543
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: don't think. So it seems like an American fish. Yeah, yeah, okay,

544
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: so what are we going to do over there? And

545
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 1: then we got well, he's like, we have ramen. Then

546
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: you have like the traditional Japanese sandwich, which is like

547
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 1: they do it like on White Red. It's yeah, catsu

548
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 1: but like with Wago beef, that's gonna be really good. Um.

549
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 1: And then there's a pizza place that Alant actually recommended

550
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: and they say it's better than Naples, Italy, like and

551
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 1: it looks so good. Pizza. Well it's called like pizza

552
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: and pronounce it, but it's called pizza. Joe. You remember

553
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: how hard you were with interviews when you were first

554
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,719
Speaker 1: a newbie on the franchise actually just talked about this

555
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 1: and now you just can't shut up. Yeah, I remember.

556
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: I remember. I like it. I like it. I remember

557
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: like you were one of the first people to interview

558
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: on the red carpet and you're like, so, how how's

559
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: it going. I'm like, it's good. I think that was

560
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,840
Speaker 1: must have been your first set of like in person interviews.

561
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 1: It was. It was, and I was I was low key,

562
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: like really freaking out. It wasn't that I I you know,

563
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 1: I didn't have a personality. It was just I don't

564
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: know how to you know, use it. That looks amazing good.

565
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: I guess you guys the food of the lawn to

566
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: see this picture. Yeah, alright, nice? All right. Then you

567
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 1: told me last night that you're gonna do some Mario

568
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: Kart thing. Yes, Mario Kart. Um so you can actually

569
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: drive one of the Mario Karts and dress we want

570
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: to dress up as the characters. So I think I'm

571
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 1: going to be I see, I'm not as I don't

572
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: know a lot about Mario Kart. I think I'm gonna

573
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 1: be a mushroom when I dress up. Yeah, so that

574
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: should be fun. And that there's also um in Kyoto.

575
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: There's an island in near Kyoto where you can um

576
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 1: go hang out with a bunch of deer and they

577
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: have like hedgehog cafes. We can hold a hedgehog while eating,

578
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,479
Speaker 1: eating or drinking coffee. They make really good coffee out there.

579
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: There's a lot of good I want to go, but

580
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: I feel like Japan is a place of people who

581
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 1: are like like specialized in things, you know what I mean.

582
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 1: And I feel like there's so much passion and dedication

583
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: to a specific field and it's passed down like through

584
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 1: generation to generation. So I have a lot of admiration

585
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: for like how like like perfected they are at each

586
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: individual category category of what I mean food, I think, yeah,

587
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 1: I think categories because like coffee it's taking very seriously,

588
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: sushi's taking very seriously. Ram and even salt. Like there's

589
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 1: a there's like a restaurant that like they just like

590
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 1: kind of showcase salt and then they have um soft

591
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 1: serve ice cream and then you make the ice cream

592
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,239
Speaker 1: coote and then they sprinkle like a different kind of

593
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 1: like see salt down there. Yeah, it looks really okay.

594
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: So I've just decided that we're going to go on

595
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 1: a couple's trip together, and I want Joe to do

596
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 1: all the food and I want to go on a trip.

597
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: So I know I've complained about this multiple times on

598
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 1: the podcast. I'm sure, but Jared like doesn't have this

599
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: passion for food that I do. And it makes me

600
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 1: really sad. I See I didn't first, really I didn't.

601
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: I mean I would usually just eat the same thing

602
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 1: every day. I would make like rice and vegetables and

603
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: that's what I would and I'd be like happy with that.

604
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: But Joe has opened my eyes up so much and

605
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 1: now I find myself getting more and more bougie because

606
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: of Joe. I got really bos after our Italian trip

607
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: after our honeymoon. Um, how you feel about pasta? Like,

608
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: for sure, I go to Italy. I just buy stuff

609
00:33:55,880 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: at Italy now fresh pasta, imported stuff. Okay, I would

610
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 1: love to do this. Do you guys when you vacation

611
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 1: and you went to Europe together last last year, do

612
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 1: you feel more bonded after those trips? Oh? Definitely, said

613
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: you go through a lot. Yeah. Yeah, Europe was great too.

614
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: I mean we just walked everywhere and just exploring and

615
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: trying Amsterdam together. Amsterdam together, babe. Don't tell people what's

616
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 1: a space cake. It's a little it's a little like

617
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 1: an edible cake. It a little pomp with a little

618
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 1: bit of marijuana. That's fine, it's legal, it's legal. But

619
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 1: it was one of the most hilarious experiences. I mean,

620
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: I do, I do encourage encourage people, urging people of

621
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,839
Speaker 1: age to try it. Yeah, it was. It was pretty well.

622
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: So I'll tell you this is something for the podcast

623
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,920
Speaker 1: that's talked about here before. Because we're pretty pg and

624
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 1: squeaky clean. But Jared and I have both never smoked pot,

625
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: hadn't edible anything like that, and I kind of like,

626
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 1: I keep telling him now that it's legal, like I

627
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 1: don't feel like I'm breaking any law. I'm like, let's

628
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 1: just do it together once. It will be super fun

629
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 1: and we'll just do it in our apartment doors locked,

630
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 1: you knowlock, and he won't do it really. Yeah, but

631
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do it without him, like we do

632
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: it together or we we don't, we don't do it

633
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,240
Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, I agree, you should. I mean, it's

634
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 1: it's not that it's a different perception of reality, is

635
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,399
Speaker 1: what it is. Yeah, Well, Jared's paranoid in general. Like

636
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: he's paranoid and scared of pretty much everything. So I

637
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: don't know that he's going to have the best types

638
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 1: of things. You don't feel comfortable with it, and you

639
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 1: feel paranoid going into it, then it's not that you're

640
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: paranoid in general, like I can only imagine I'm a

641
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 1: paranoid person. But when you go to these stores now,

642
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: especially in l A, you could tell them like, hey listen,

643
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 1: I get paranoid, and then they'll give you a strand

644
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 1: that doesn't you know, he doesn't make you paranoid or

645
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: as paranoid as regular weed would. So all right, Well,

646
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 1: to wrap this up, I wanted to talk about the

647
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 1: Scene app for a second. You guys talked a lot

648
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,439
Speaker 1: about it with Ben, and I'm a little bit unfamiliar

649
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,799
Speaker 1: with it. Can you tell me what you learned in

650
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 1: the last podcast? So seen as we're actually really excited

651
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: to be a part of it. It's about it. It's

652
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 1: about transparent dating. And what I mean by that is that, um,

653
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: whenever you match with somebody, all all of your messages

654
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 1: and video chats are public for everybody to see. So

655
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: everybody else that's on the app can see your conversations

656
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,880
Speaker 1: and see your video chats. It's yes, it is weird,

657
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 1: but that's why it's fun. It's definitely fun. I guess

658
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 1: you're going to be very careful about what you say.

659
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 1: It's not going to ever get creepy, which is why

660
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 1: it's the safest. Yeah, that's the point. And it's for

661
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: people that actually want to date. It's for serious daters. Yeah,

662
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 1: and it may be scary if you're shy. Once you

663
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 1: overcome that and you step out, what is it, Kendel,

664
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,400
Speaker 1: the edge of your comfort zone? Life begins at the

665
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 1: end of your comfort had we got to hang out

666
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 1: more because our guys are both the exact same. Jared

667
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,240
Speaker 1: is obsessed with his comfort zone and I'm always telling

668
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 1: him that quote in the Magic happens outside your comfort zone,

669
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 1: that circle and all that Demon's diagram that they have.

670
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,799
Speaker 1: But even you love your you love your comfort zone.

671
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: Um no, I don't mind. I think you've gotten I

672
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: think since Joe has broken out of his comfort zone

673
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: so many times in the past few years, I think

674
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 1: now maybe he was pushed into Dancing with the Stars,

675
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: the ultimate non comfort zone. Yeah, that was it. I

676
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: mean for me, yeah, I had to like doing that

677
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: show was something I wasn't good at. I was so uncomfortable.

678
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: But you know, once you do it, it's like just

679
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: free now, you know. And one thing we can relate

680
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 1: talk all the time at the Stars would he loves

681
00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 1: before it's it's it's such a great experience and as

682
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: everyone that's a part of that show is just so

683
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 1: so great to work with. Have you been watching Hannah Um? Yeah, yeah,

684
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,760
Speaker 1: we actually went to the shows, the Halloween show. Yeah, yeah,

685
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: that was awesome. But I think she's doing great. I know,

686
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:22,280
Speaker 1: I think Jenna just got voted off. Yeah, but um,

687
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: but yeah, to bring it back to the bring back

688
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: to the to the should Hannah get on the scene? Yes,

689
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 1: I mean I feel like I feel like one thing

690
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: is that being a part of Bachelor Nation and you know,

691
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 1: stranger to having a public relationship and for everybody to

692
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 1: see every step, the good and the bad of your relationship.

693
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,799
Speaker 1: And I can speak for Joe and I felt like

694
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 1: our relationship got so much stronger the more transparent it

695
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 1: was and the more that we shared it with everybody. Um,

696
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 1: and so we found strengthen that with each other. And

697
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,919
Speaker 1: so UM, I think that's the reason why we're talking

698
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 1: to Mike. He's um the founder of the scene up

699
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: and he initially wanted to create a reality TV show

700
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,080
Speaker 1: out of it, and so he was talking with us,

701
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 1: and you know, we have this idea of spreading it

702
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 1: to allowing like so many people to have this experience,

703
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 1: um with dating and it brings it back to the

704
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: traditional form of dating too in a sense. Yes, and

705
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 1: and and you also do have the option to go

706
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 1: private and you can meet some of your really into

707
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:18,919
Speaker 1: it's like you then you don't stay on the app

708
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,160
Speaker 1: and keep chatting, you know, you go do your own

709
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: thing in the real world. Yeah, exactly, all right, Well,

710
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,800
Speaker 1: the formal explanation of the Scene app is Scene app

711
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,959
Speaker 1: is the next generation dating app for online daters fed

712
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 1: up with fake profiles and time wasters. Seen is the

713
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 1: first and only dating experience that offers complete transparency to

714
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 1: men and women looking for their perfect match. Transparent dating

715
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: means a new, innovative and honest approach to dating, which

716
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 1: allows singles who are serious about dating an opportunity to

717
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:52,800
Speaker 1: match on real human connections and chemistry. And that means

718
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 1: more real connections. So if you're tired of relying on

719
00:39:56,360 --> 00:40:00,680

761
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: in particular? At one point? I thought, and I think

762
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 1: I said this on the podcast before Peter Krause, okay,

763
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:47,399
Speaker 1: because I was like, I don't know there's any other

00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 1: Silver Foxes. There was Peter, there's a Rachel's whole season.

765
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 1: I felt that there were older guys. Yeah, yeah, it's

766
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,839
Speaker 1: probably the last one with older guys. Okay, So you're

767
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:03,399
Speaker 1: looking out for Rachel's EAPs. You mentioned to Jared during

768
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,880
Speaker 1: a help I second dating that you and Chris basically

769
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 1: you go watch TV all day long stuff on the

770
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: couch and then you go to dinner, and those are

771
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: your visits with each other, which I love. What was

772
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,480
Speaker 1: the last show? What was the show that you binge watched?

773
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,279
Speaker 1: You watched, you binge watched anything? Or do you watch

774
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:24,440
Speaker 1: this movie? It was called Fractured, and I was scared.

775
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 1: I was scared it was called Fractured. It was really

776
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 1: in mind. It was one of those mind mystery movies

777
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 1: where you don't I really didn't know what was going

778
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 1: to happen at the end. And that's one movie that

779
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 1: I can say I actually got through because I really

780
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,080
Speaker 1: wanted to know what was going to happen. I was

781
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:40,840
Speaker 1: on the edge of my seat. But I hated that

782
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 1: he was leaving the next day because then I didn't

783
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:45,239
Speaker 1: want to be at my house with myself. I was like,

784
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 1: oh no, when I walk into my house with my

785
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 1: finger shaped like a gun, like, who's there? Was you

786
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 1: have a scary break in? I did? Yeah? I do? Okay?

787
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,840
Speaker 1: I talking about that. Um I am it was the

788
00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 1: day I was supposed to leave for Paradise. Oh my gosh.

789
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 1: It wasn't um. It was someone who was homeless and

790
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 1: on a lot of drugs, so Luckily it wasn't someone

791
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:08,759
Speaker 1: who was a fan or anything like that. I know

792
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: people were worried about that. It was someone who wasn't

793
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,480
Speaker 1: in their right mind, and that was really scary for me.

794
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 1: I was supposed to be home, but by the grace

795
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 1: of God, I was not. He went into my room

796
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 1: knocked all of the stuff that I had packed for

797
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 1: Paradise onto the floor. Um had trashed my house. He

798
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 1: put a lot of Aquafina bottle labels on my floors,

799
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 1: on my wood floor, stuck at them. All this to

800
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 1: my floor like a puzzle. Weird, creepy. Did I hear

801
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 1: something about like him dancing, Yeah, so my neighbors. He

802
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 1: was like screaming, yelling. My neighbors saw him. He was

803
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:45,720
Speaker 1: smashing vases outside. UM, and he was apparently dancing around

804
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: and then dancing in my house. I guess the police

805
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 1: came in and got him. Um. He had tried to

806
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: take four dollars from me, which was sitting right next

807
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 1: to my MacBook pro. He took the four dollars and

808
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 1: threw it in the bush angrily. That's that's just what

809
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 1: I heard. Didn't take the map, didn't take the mac.

810
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,920
Speaker 1: He was like, screw this MacBook pro. I want four dollars,

811
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,360
Speaker 1: and then I want to get rid of it quick.

812
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 1: That's when you know he's not in his right mind. Absolutely.

813
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,319
Speaker 1: You you kind of alluded to the fact that you

814
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 1: got through fractured the movie because you often fall asleep

815
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 1: while while watching movies with Chris. Yes, what was the

816
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 1: last movie you fell asleep during? That's a good question

817
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 1: because typically I can't even get to the first line

818
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 1: of the movie. I'm not okay, I'm not kidding, I'm

819
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,680
Speaker 1: I am so as soon as the movie's on, Chris

820
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: turns the lamp off, and as soon as the lamp's off,

821
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 1: I'm off. I swear. It's like the lamp goes off

822
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 1: and my eyes shut and I try so hard. I

823
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,799
Speaker 1: think there's part of me that you know how, You're

824
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: almost like half asleep, And he's like, are you sleeping?

825
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:46,839
Speaker 1: I'm like no, and I get up really fascinated. I'm

826
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,960
Speaker 1: not sleeping, and I get really defensive about it. I

827
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 1: laid back down and I and I'm sleeping again, but

828
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 1: he too, I like, I wake up, but I lie

829
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 1: to him. I'm like, I'm not sleeping at all. What

830
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 1: are you talking about? Get off my back? I get

831
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 1: sort of defensive and embarrassed to when I keep falling

832
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 1: asleep during movies because we just can't do it anymore, right,

833
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 1: I don't even know even if it's like relatively early,

834
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 1: like seven thirty or something. Midway through, I'll be like, oh,

835
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 1: I'm so cozy, and just like something about falling asleep

836
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 1: to a movie is so comforting. It's so nice. But

837
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 1: I don't know why I get defensive and tell them.

838
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:25,040
Speaker 1: I tell him I'm not sleeping so funny. Um, okay,

839
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 1: So what did you guys do after you go and

840
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 1: fall asleep on the couch or you watch TV? What

841
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,880
Speaker 1: kind of restaurants do you usually go to? Oh? Um,

842
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,280
Speaker 1: lately Italian, which I never used to go to. Um,

843
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,960
Speaker 1: I never ever went to. That's so interesting. That's like

844
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,439
Speaker 1: the go to really in my family and with Jared

845
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 1: and I too. Oh yeah, like a lot of and

846
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,640
Speaker 1: it's also really romantic. Um. I was a big like

847
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:56,800
Speaker 1: I would always go to Mexican restaurants, but he Chris

848
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: likes fine dining. And only reason I don't like it

849
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,879
Speaker 1: is because I have to get ready. Sometimes you gotta

850
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 1: get ready, but then once I'm ready and stuff. I

851
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 1: love the experience um and the Italian food that I've

852
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 1: tried a lot of the times. We went to some

853
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 1: really nice Italian places in New York when we were

854
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 1: there and in Chicago, and it's so beautiful and a

855
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:20,880
Speaker 1: lot of the two of the restaurants we went to,

856
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: we got to see them make pasta in front of us,

857
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 1: which I thought was really really cool. So I have

858
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,719
Speaker 1: a suggestion for your next day at night, because since

859
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: I went to Italy, we've I've become a food snob

860
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:36,400
Speaker 1: and I just get fresh, organic um imported pasta from Italy.

861
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:39,319
Speaker 1: So when he comes to visit you in l A,

862
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:43,359
Speaker 1: go to Italy, get all the imported things and like

863
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 1: make dinner together. And what I craft now in our kitchen,

864
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 1: to me, is better than what we go out to get.

865
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 1: Really yeah, okay, cool, alright, Katie, My last question for you,

00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,640
Speaker 1: here in NAPA as mine as well. Get her opinions

914
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:42,040
Speaker 1: on the hottest of all Bachelor topics in the past

915
00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:45,279
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and that has been the breakup of

916
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 1: Demi and Christian. Hey what that girl? Hi? Alright? So, um,

917
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:55,080
Speaker 1: were you expecting to see the end of Christian Demi?

918
00:50:56,040 --> 00:51:02,080
Speaker 1: You know, I wouldn't say that I was really I

919
00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 1: remember at our wedding. Yeah, that's where I was. Was

920
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:09,080
Speaker 1: the first time that I heard that they were dating

921
00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:11,640
Speaker 1: and there was the same sex relationship. It was the

922
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:16,920
Speaker 1: first of history for the Bachelor that was televised, publicly

923
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:22,120
Speaker 1: known and one they're being a dozens in the past,

924
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:27,120
Speaker 1: just that I've heard, I've heard through the vine. Well, yeah,

925
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,640
Speaker 1: there was something were like like bisexual. I think like

926
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 1: Jamie was one. And did she ever huk up with

927
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:35,880
Speaker 1: somebody from the show? Not that I'm aware of, Oh

928
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:39,840
Speaker 1: my gosh, But Christian wasn't from the show. She wasn't

929
00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, she was a regular person if you will.

930
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:45,280
Speaker 1: But but I will say, going back to your question,

931
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 1: was that was my first time hearing about the same

932
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:51,000
Speaker 1: sex relationship. It was actually on my wedding day and

933
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:53,160
Speaker 1: I was like what And I was the whole time,

934
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:54,879
Speaker 1: I was like, how is this going to play out?

935
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: My mind was freaking blown for like a solid the

936
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:05,160
Speaker 1: any days. But it was your mind blown because she

937
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 1: was able to bring on someone the whole thing, the world,

938
00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:10,640
Speaker 1: the whole thing. It was just something I did not

939
00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:13,799
Speaker 1: see coming, and that it was someone that wasn't from

940
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,560
Speaker 1: the show that they've been dating prior to filming. There

941
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 1: was just so many uh areas around it that were

942
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: so out of the norm. Um. But I will say

943
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,279
Speaker 1: watching unfold, I thought it was really beautiful how it

944
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:30,000
Speaker 1: really came to be. Yeah, I mean they were so

945
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:36,799
Speaker 1: routable during their season. Was definitely there. The feelings were palpable. Yeah,

946
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:41,920
Speaker 1: and I think that um really seeing Christian just felt

947
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:45,759
Speaker 1: so authentic to me. I really liked her and I

948
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,759
Speaker 1: was I was really rooting for them. But coming off

949
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:50,880
Speaker 1: the show, I remember saying, like when we were there

950
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 1: at reunion at the final taping, I was like, look,

951
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,799
Speaker 1: there's a lot of pressure that comes up being a

952
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 1: bachelor couple. I'm sure as you know, and they're all

953
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 1: very young and this is very new and they are

954
00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:07,080
Speaker 1: dealing with a lot of hate, a lot of pressure,

955
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:11,920
Speaker 1: a lot of exposure, and not to mention Demi was

956
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 1: just figuring out if she what her gender preference was

957
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:19,080
Speaker 1: in a relationship, So I think it was just probably

958
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:22,319
Speaker 1: a lot to deal with and process. Um. I think

959
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 1: it was a give giveaway that in the past month

960
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 1: or so there had been no Instagram content on the

961
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:34,400
Speaker 1: two of them. Help. I second, Katie had actually said

962
00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:38,440
Speaker 1: that she doesn't want to post photos with Chris because

963
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:41,880
Speaker 1: she feels like it'll lead on the audience sort of.

964
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: She's like, I'm not going to pose until I feel

965
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,800
Speaker 1: solid with you. So I think that's like very mature

966
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:54,359
Speaker 1: and authentic. So I'm you know, Demi obviously wasn't just

967
00:53:54,520 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 1: posting pictures with Christian for the likes. But yeah, I

968
00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:03,600
Speaker 1: think that was a giveaway a little bit that they

969
00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 1: were on a rough road. Yeah, I think that there's

970
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 1: just a lot of I mean, of course, if you

971
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:13,120
Speaker 1: don't see couples together, especially coming off of the show,

972
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,879
Speaker 1: when you're really being celebrated, like that is your time

973
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:19,160
Speaker 1: to get the love, get the support, and just be

974
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:22,800
Speaker 1: proud of your relationship, especially because they were really setting

975
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:26,200
Speaker 1: history that Um. I was really surprised that I hadn't

976
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:29,279
Speaker 1: seen anything any interaction of them together, So I think

977
00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:31,719
Speaker 1: it makes sense, um, and I just wish them the best.

978
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:34,080
Speaker 1: I think that they're just figuring it out. And you

979
00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:36,879
Speaker 1: know who you should really interview as Christian. I would

980
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:40,080
Speaker 1: love it. I would love to hear her perspective. Let's

981
00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:42,720
Speaker 1: write that down, because nobody has been like pulled into

982
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:47,719
Speaker 1: the world like she was. Oh, talk about flipped upside down.

983
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:51,800
Speaker 1: I mean, just the magnitude of it. I would love

984
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,799
Speaker 1: it to talk with her be so good, so good,

985
00:54:54,920 --> 00:55:02,839
Speaker 1: let's book her right right out like our next episode.

986
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:07,520
Speaker 1: That would be amazing. So yeah, I mean, I can't

987
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:11,080
Speaker 1: say that I am surprised just because of what the

988
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 1: lack of what we've seen lately. But it's sad. It sucks.

989
00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,439
Speaker 1: I was rooting for them hard. It was really fun

990
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:22,800
Speaker 1: to watch the relationship. Um. But I also had this

991
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:29,320
Speaker 1: pondering question that has kept thinking of during the season

992
00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:32,239
Speaker 1: and after their engagement. I was like, if they were

993
00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:36,200
Speaker 1: to have continued to date in real life over the summer,

994
00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:39,759
Speaker 1: would they have ever gotten engaged? Well? I think that.

995
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:42,239
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, a lot of couples and I think

996
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:45,439
Speaker 1: if Chris and I would have met in real life,

997
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:50,000
Speaker 1: we would have got after you know, that's basically like

998
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 1: every other of course in that environment where and for

999
00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 1: those the listeners who don't know or you know, I'm

1000
00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 1: sure you do because you listen every week, right know,

1001
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:05,000
Speaker 1: like from the knowledge perspective, but they can't know from

1002
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 1: the emotional Yeah, you are just you are supported in

1003
00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:11,319
Speaker 1: such a way, especially for Chris and I. I mean

1004
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:16,240
Speaker 1: you are just hand almost hand had this amazing support

1005
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:19,640
Speaker 1: of this relationship to blossom and thrive, and like everyone's

1006
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:23,399
Speaker 1: behind you, everyone's rooting for you, And I mean it's

1007
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:27,080
Speaker 1: an incredible feeling, honestly, I mean it really is. And

1008
00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:30,040
Speaker 1: you find yourself in these situations where I mean when

1009
00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:33,719
Speaker 1: you and Jared came down, actually was you were there?

1010
00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:39,680
Speaker 1: It was actually a you know, memorable day in our relationship. Okay,

1011
00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:42,640
Speaker 1: so why was that a big day in your relationship

1012
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 1: with Chris? So after you guys got engaged, UM, all

1013
00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:48,680
Speaker 1: the producers pulled all of us to have like important

1014
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 1: conversations about you know, hey, we're more than half with

1015
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 1: your paradise. Where do we see this relationship going? Do

1016
00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:57,480
Speaker 1: we see yourself getting married in kids? And Chris and

1017
00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,879
Speaker 1: I decided that night to um go into the boom

1018
00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,840
Speaker 1: room for the first time the first time and for

1019
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 1: those who don't know, one camera instead of twelve. Alright,

1020
00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,719
Speaker 1: and what do you think the camera person, not the

1021
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:14,440
Speaker 1: Cara person, but I guess the person up in the

1022
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 1: control room. Do you think they watched? Of course they

1023
00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 1: watch it. We could see the camera following us. Really, yeah,

1024
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:26,200
Speaker 1: we were kind of into it. Okay, it's kind of

1025
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 1: like that we're doing a sex tape exactly. Hopefully it'll

1026
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 1: never Actually we're like, it won't get out. The footage

1027
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,720
Speaker 1: could have got out under the covers though, right under

1028
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:42,640
Speaker 1: the covers. No, we were on the balcony, Ashley, but

1029
00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:46,520
Speaker 1: under watching everyone at the campfire. You were watching everybody.

1030
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,600
Speaker 1: I mean we were there. You had the windows pulled

1031
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,480
Speaker 1: the curtains, so we were in the room all the

1032
00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:54,920
Speaker 1: way at the very top, which has it is a

1033
00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 1: beautiful room with like an open there's no windows like

1034
00:57:57,760 --> 00:57:59,760
Speaker 1: it totally opened the whole room. You were in the

1035
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:03,000
Speaker 1: offt oh, I thought you were talking about the other

1036
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:04,440
Speaker 1: boom boom room that has like a little bit of

1037
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,720
Speaker 1: a curtain. No, no, no, we were okay, all the

1038
00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:09,120
Speaker 1: way up top of the tree house, so basically anybody

1039
00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:11,560
Speaker 1: could walk in to like go get some snacks. In

1040
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 1: the refrigerator. No, we were at the very talk I know,

1041
00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 1: but that doesn't have a door or anything. It doesn't

1042
00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:24,200
Speaker 1: He couldn't see you if they were getting a snack

1043
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:27,320
Speaker 1: in the refrigerator. I will say that that night was

1044
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:32,120
Speaker 1: an amazing night, an amazing night, and it just happens

1045
00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:34,120
Speaker 1: to also be the day that you got engaged. You

1046
00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:36,440
Speaker 1: waited a bit, you waited a bit. It was like

1047
00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:40,200
Speaker 1: we did, Yeah, we waited it great. There was a

1048
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 1: lot of built up, you know, like we were ready.

1049
00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 1: So what made you so? Thank you? Actual I inspired

1050
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:50,840
Speaker 1: the romance? Oh my god, thank you conversations. Why did

1051
00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:54,040
Speaker 1: you do it then and not wait for the fantasy suite?

1052
00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:56,760
Speaker 1: You know? I think we just didn't know how much

1053
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:58,440
Speaker 1: time was going to be left in Paradise. And I

1054
00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:01,920
Speaker 1: think just for Chris and I was really we just

1055
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:04,160
Speaker 1: wanted to spend a night together and not even so

1056
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:07,680
Speaker 1: much just have sex, but we just wanted to see

1057
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,520
Speaker 1: what it would feel like too for me to wash

1058
00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,320
Speaker 1: up all my makeup and crawl in bed with him,

1059
00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:14,520
Speaker 1: to brush our teeth together, to fall asleep, like does

1060
00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 1: he snore? Can we sleep together? Like? Are these things compatible?

1061
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,040
Speaker 1: And I needed to know that sooner than the night,

1062
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:22,440
Speaker 1: I could potentially get engaged to someone like I needed

1063
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,479
Speaker 1: the next day exactly, I needed to have a little

1064
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:30,120
Speaker 1: more of like that realism in the relationship. All right, well, Crystal,

1065
00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:33,000
Speaker 1: we talked about one hot topic and you gave us

1066
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:41,640
Speaker 1: a very fine al right. Next up we have Maddie Poppy.

1067
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:47,880
Speaker 1: I'm on a little bit of a health kick lately.

1068
00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:51,640
Speaker 1: It's not just about clean eating, but it's also about

1069
00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:57,560
Speaker 1: not exposing myself to toxic chemicals and eating organically and

1070
00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:01,600
Speaker 1: avoiding parabins beauty products and stuff. And one of my

1071
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:06,480
Speaker 1: favorite product lines that I've found in this new lifestyle

1072
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:11,959
Speaker 1: creation of mine is Native Products. All of their products

1073
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 1: like deodorant are formulated without aluminum, parabins and talcue and

1074
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:21,560
Speaker 1: their field with ingredients found in nature, such as coconut oil,

1075
01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:26,480
Speaker 1: shave butter, tapioca start and they don't do any animal testing.

1076
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:28,560
Speaker 1: You guys know, I'm very particular about what I put

1077
01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 1: on my skin, and the number one thing I try

1078
01:00:30,640 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 1: to avoid right now, especially is chemicals. And making the

1079
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 1: switch to a natural deodorant does not mean that you're

1080
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,960
Speaker 1: gonna have to sacrifice on odor or wetness protection. I

1081
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,400
Speaker 1: tried it. I know these products work and they have

1082
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:47,120
Speaker 1: eight thousand five star reviews. That's a very good sign.

1083
01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 1: So if you didn't believe that it worked for me,

1084
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 1: there's eight thousand other people who took the time and

1085
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:55,920
Speaker 1: effort to give these Native products writings, eight thousands of

1086
01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:59,920
Speaker 1: I'm giving five star writings. It's pretty amazing. Native come

1087
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:03,080
Speaker 1: in a wide variety of enticing scents for men and women,

1088
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:05,600
Speaker 1: and they come out all throughout the year. I personally

1089
01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:09,080
Speaker 1: love the coconut and vanilla scent. It's so tropical. I

1090
01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 1: put it on and it makes me feel like it's

1091
01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:13,520
Speaker 1: summer all the time, and it makes me feel like

1092
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:17,000
Speaker 1: I'm on vacation, that that smell of coconut like brings

1093
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:20,600
Speaker 1: you right to the islands. They also offer an unscented

1094

Speaker 1: more basic, and a baking soda free formula for those

01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:30,320
Speaker 1: with sensitivities to that. But what I do love most

1109
01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:27,120
Speaker 1: right here in Napa Valley. Maddie. Um, you have been

1110
01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:31,600
Speaker 1: on reality TV two shows, actually The Voice and American Idol,

1111
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:35,400
Speaker 1: and you met your boyfriend Caleb. I did it was

1112
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:39,840
Speaker 1: The Bachelor mixed with American Idol to say, you guys

1113
01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:42,840
Speaker 1: were the winner and runner up and you got together

1114
01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,640
Speaker 1: and that is actually not the only time it's happening

1115
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:49,720
Speaker 1: on American Idol. But it's still so much fun that

1116
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:52,240
Speaker 1: you like developed a reality relationship. So I think you

1117
01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:56,000
Speaker 1: kind of understand this totally. Yeah, so you're a Bachelor fan.

1118
01:02:56,920 --> 01:03:01,200
Speaker 1: I don't watch every season because, like lately, I have

1119
01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:04,520
Speaker 1: not been able to watch because I'm I'm never in

1120
01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 1: one in the same place every Monday night. I love that.

1121
01:03:07,320 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 1: I do know every it's every Monday night. But um,

1122
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:14,800
Speaker 1: but like I've definitely watched, um you know, I catch

1123
01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:17,080
Speaker 1: I catch an episode or like the season every now

1124
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:21,400
Speaker 1: and then you follow yes lightly, yes, Okay, So how

1125
01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:26,680
Speaker 1: do you feel like your relationship now is? Is it

1126
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:30,200
Speaker 1: got more scrutiny because you guys met on the show

1127
01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:33,240
Speaker 1: and because the fans of the show want you guys

1128
01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:37,480
Speaker 1: to be together. Yeah, for sure. Um, the pressure is

1129
01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:41,200
Speaker 1: definitely there. And also like I can't imagine people who

1130
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:44,640
Speaker 1: you know, like people who are on the Bachelor Bachelorette,

1131
01:03:45,120 --> 01:03:48,880
Speaker 1: the pressure that they must feel to stay together even

1132
01:03:48,920 --> 01:03:52,080
Speaker 1: if like after the fact they know like it's you know,

1133
01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:54,320
Speaker 1: this isn't gonna work or something. You know, I'm lucky

1134
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:57,840
Speaker 1: that I do. Actually, you know, I I do feel

1135
01:03:57,840 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 1: like my boyfriend and I will work out, you know

1136
01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:04,440
Speaker 1: plan you recently called him the one. Oh yeah, that's everywhere.

1137
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:08,720
Speaker 1: That's really weird. But um, yeah, I can't imagine the

1138
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:10,919
Speaker 1: pressure that I would feel if I was just like

1139
01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:13,240
Speaker 1: because like we can't you know, if we broke up.

1140
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:17,360
Speaker 1: I can't imagine. But you know it's interesting because you

1141
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 1: said that, Um, you know that do you think that

1142
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:23,600
Speaker 1: we have a lot of pressure. But you guys were

1143
01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:27,000
Speaker 1: able to date in former relationship while you were actual

1144
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:30,560
Speaker 1: competitors on the show. Yeah, how does that work? How

1145
01:04:30,680 --> 01:04:33,160
Speaker 1: is it not jealousy? You know what. I'm gonna be

1146
01:04:33,200 --> 01:04:35,360
Speaker 1: honest with you. I think if he would have won,

1147
01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:38,360
Speaker 1: I would have been extremely jealous. So I think it's

1148
01:04:38,360 --> 01:04:40,280
Speaker 1: good it worked out. Just girls get jealous, you know

1149
01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:42,960
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Um, but he didn't really want to

1150
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:48,040
Speaker 1: win or not, because I mean, honestly, I don't know

1151
01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:50,000
Speaker 1: that this sounds terrible, but I don't know that he

1152
01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:52,000
Speaker 1: would have been the best winner because I don't know

1153
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 1: if he would have been able to like do all

1154
01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:57,560
Speaker 1: the you know, Disney is tied in with ABC and

1155
01:04:57,600 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 1: so you have to put on the Mickey ears and

1156
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:02,000
Speaker 1: be like, let me tell you about the magic of Disney,

1157
01:05:02,560 --> 01:05:04,200
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I don't know that

1158
01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:07,000
Speaker 1: he would have been able Hello, record label guy who

1159
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:11,240
Speaker 1: with Disney, Hollywood Records. Hollywood Records, Um, the former label

1160
01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:14,080
Speaker 1: of the Jonas Brothers. That's right, that's right. But anyways,

1161
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:15,320
Speaker 1: I don't know that he would have been able to

1162
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:17,360
Speaker 1: do all that, you know what I mean. It's just

1163
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:22,680
Speaker 1: be harder for a dude, I think. But yeah, honestly,

1164
01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:25,360
Speaker 1: it never really felt like a competition show. It was

1165
01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:29,760
Speaker 1: more like summer camp, because that's how it feels filming

1166
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:33,120
Speaker 1: The Bachelor or the Bachelorette, not Bachelor in Paradise. Bachelor

1167
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:39,560
Speaker 1: in Paradise is a more regular emotional Yes, oh it's

1168
01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:42,520
Speaker 1: opposite for up. Yeah, okay, well Crystal here, who's sitting

1169
01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 1: in had a little bit more of a tumultuous time

1170
01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:49,640
Speaker 1: during the Bachelor, but that's a different conversation. You um

1171
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:51,960
Speaker 1: were on the Voice as well, and I feel like

1172
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:56,560
Speaker 1: your story is so um, it's so incredible. You did

1173
01:05:56,600 --> 01:06:00,560
Speaker 1: alive and you did a live performance for the judges

1174
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:03,400
Speaker 1: on the Voice, nobody turned around. You were eliminated right

1175
01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:07,000
Speaker 1: there on the spot and then American Idol was it?

1176
01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:09,560
Speaker 1: Lionel Richie said like, you need to be part of

1177
01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:12,160
Speaker 1: this competition and then you want it. What in the

1178
01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:15,320
Speaker 1: world how is it so inconsistent? First of all, you

1179
01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 1: do great research. Really, I don't know if you were

1180
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:20,360
Speaker 1: you actually watch or you just look U up, But

1181
01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:22,400
Speaker 1: either way, it doesn't matter. You're great. A lot of

1182
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:25,440
Speaker 1: people be like, so what's your name? Oh? Well, I

1183
01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:27,440
Speaker 1: mean I just need to let you know here, um

1184
01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:30,600
Speaker 1: heart Idol in Virginia, you can have a heart on

1185
01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:35,000
Speaker 1: your license plate. So mindset heart idle from like two thlen.

1186
01:06:35,080 --> 01:06:37,320
Speaker 1: So do you still watch I don't watch it the

1187
01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:39,640
Speaker 1: past like five seasons. I get it, I get it.

1188
01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:42,919
Speaker 1: It's okay, I don't. I haven't watched Pasty David Cook

1189
01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:50,200
Speaker 1: performed at my wedding. Wow, oh my gosh, that's big time. Um.

1190
01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:55,000
Speaker 1: The question was about the voice. How is it so inconsistent?

1191
01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:58,680
Speaker 1: It was super embarrassing. First of all, your talent is

1192
01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:05,600
Speaker 1: mind boggling. Your voice was made to be famous. None

1193
01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:07,880
Speaker 1: of those judges to turn around. I think if Kelly

1194
01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:10,760
Speaker 1: Clarkson had heard you, she would have turned around. Now,

1195
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:13,520
Speaker 1: I gotta say something though. That's so sweet, But I

1196
01:07:13,560 --> 01:07:16,240
Speaker 1: gotta say I wouldn't have turned from me either. That

1197
01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:18,400
Speaker 1: was I didn't think it was very good performance at all.

1198
01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:21,720
Speaker 1: Like watching it, I was cringing and like, first of all,

1199
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:24,760
Speaker 1: that show is very different from Idol because on that

1200
01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:28,600
Speaker 1: show they have so much control over you and um,

1201
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:30,960
Speaker 1: you know, they pick your outfit and your song and everything.

1202
01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:33,200
Speaker 1: Idol is literally like okay, just show up and do

1203
01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:35,560
Speaker 1: whatever you want. Um, And I think that's what was

1204
01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:37,800
Speaker 1: so different. You know, I didn't get my guitar when

1205
01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:39,520
Speaker 1: I was on the Voice, so I was super awkward

1206
01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:41,840
Speaker 1: and I didn't know even who I wanted to be,

1207
01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:45,000
Speaker 1: what genre I wanted to sing. I was if it

1208
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:46,560
Speaker 1: would have worked out, then it wouldn't have been good.

1209
01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:48,680
Speaker 1: The age difference was a year and a half between

1210
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,440
Speaker 1: the I Know and that, and it's crazy how much

1211
01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:54,240
Speaker 1: I kind of grew in just that little amount of time.

1212
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:56,920
Speaker 1: But I was devastated after that. Of course, I thought,

1213
01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:00,160
Speaker 1: you know, Idol was going off the air like that

1214
01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:02,560
Speaker 1: same season, so I was like, well, that was my

1215
01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:05,920
Speaker 1: last opportunity and that there it was. Came back so quickly,

1216
01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:08,600
Speaker 1: came back. Yeah, not even give it what maybe not

1217
01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:15,520
Speaker 1: even two points? I know? Um yeah, I just wasn't ready. Honestly,

1218
01:08:15,640 --> 01:08:18,679
Speaker 1: I can't sit here and say, yeah, screw the Voice.

1219
01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:20,439
Speaker 1: You know, they didn't turn around for me. I think

1220
01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:22,160
Speaker 1: a lot of people want me to be like because

1221
01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 1: some people ask like, yeah, do you wish what you wish?

1222
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,240
Speaker 1: You could tell Blake Shelton now, and I'm like, well,

1223
01:08:27,280 --> 01:08:30,000
Speaker 1: I tell him you were you were right. I wasn't

1224
01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:33,920
Speaker 1: ready then now, uh And yeah, not being biased right

1225
01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:36,000
Speaker 1: now because you're in front of me. But I've always

1226
01:08:36,280 --> 01:08:39,080
Speaker 1: just understood the appeal of Idol more than the voice.

1227
01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:41,280
Speaker 1: I never got into it. And this is a girl

1228
01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:44,120
Speaker 1: who had heart Idol in her license plate. That's amazing

1229
01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:46,120
Speaker 1: and that means a lot. I mean, I think that

1230
01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:49,559
Speaker 1: that show has had so much success because they let

1231
01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:51,920
Speaker 1: people be whoever they want to be. You know, when

1232
01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:55,240
Speaker 1: you package something together and then you put out into

1233
01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:59,240
Speaker 1: the world, you can't you can't expect it to continue

1234
01:08:59,320 --> 01:09:02,599
Speaker 1: to you know, thrive in the way it did when

1235
01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:06,160
Speaker 1: you know, when that person was surrounded by a team

1236
01:09:06,320 --> 01:09:10,760
Speaker 1: real crazy yeah and just controlla yeah. But I mean,

1237
01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:13,479
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, like that show obviously has been

1238
01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,120
Speaker 1: on for so many seasons because but nine people love it.

1239
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:17,840
Speaker 1: I feel like it's more a TV show and less

1240
01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:20,280
Speaker 1: of a launching pad for artists. Oh for sure. It's

1241
01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:22,960
Speaker 1: not about the artists. Yeah, I mean that sounds really bad,

1242
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:26,240
Speaker 1: But it's not about discovering Kelly Clarkson. You know, it's

1243
01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:30,760
Speaker 1: about oh the banter between the judges, and they have

1244
01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:35,280
Speaker 1: such a great lineup, you know, obviously that's so entertaining

1245
01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:39,400
Speaker 1: because it's like a reality TV show for these stars already,

1246
01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:41,479
Speaker 1: you know, um, I want to go back to your

1247
01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:45,840
Speaker 1: boyfriend for a second. Just Caleb, Caleb Lee Hutchinson, and

1248
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:50,040
Speaker 1: he's an artist of course, still working in Nashville. Um

1249
01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:54,000
Speaker 1: but he um he and you met on the idol.

1250
01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:56,360
Speaker 1: You've been together for a year and a half, and

1251
01:09:56,600 --> 01:09:59,760
Speaker 1: I saw that you post a monthly post on in

1252
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:03,880
Speaker 1: a Graham saying we're still together. Just letting you know

1253
01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:06,759
Speaker 1: because the fans will always speculate. We were just talking

1254
01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:12,240
Speaker 1: about a bachelor couple who broke up and we all

1255
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:15,080
Speaker 1: speculated that it was coming because they hadn't posted of

1256
01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:17,439
Speaker 1: each other in a month. So how do you feel

1257
01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:20,360
Speaker 1: about the pressures of keeping up your relationship on Instagram?

1258
01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:22,919
Speaker 1: And since it's that's something that we as a bachelor

1259
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:26,320
Speaker 1: family have to deal with all the time, totally. I mean, man,

1260
01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:31,040
Speaker 1: we can relate on so many levels because um yeah,

1261
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:34,040
Speaker 1: it's like I feel like we will like joke around

1262
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:36,640
Speaker 1: on Twitter or something, and then the next day, like

1263
01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:39,400
Speaker 1: if we don't post every day, you wouldn't believe the comments.

1264
01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:43,439
Speaker 1: They're like some will be like, well she's pregnant, and

1265
01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:47,000
Speaker 1: others will be like they're done for good, you know

1266
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:50,479
Speaker 1: what I mean. Like it's just that no, I mean,

1267
01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:53,519
Speaker 1: there's so many expectations, and it's like, you know, it's

1268
01:10:53,560 --> 01:10:55,600
Speaker 1: just become kind of a joke, Like that post was

1269
01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:58,120
Speaker 1: a total joke because I was just like, you know,

1270
01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:00,519
Speaker 1: I don't care. I'm happy my relationship. I don't think

1271
01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:02,360
Speaker 1: I need to let the world know every five seconds,

1272
01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:05,479
Speaker 1: you know, keep them updated on you know, what's happening

1273
01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:08,679
Speaker 1: with us, because yeah, and Instagram is a big highlight

1274
01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:13,440
Speaker 1: rail of a relationship anyway, it's just all butterflies and rainbows.

1275
01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:15,320
Speaker 1: But and then of course if we were to show

1276
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:17,240
Speaker 1: some realness that people be like, oh, they're on the

1277
01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:21,599
Speaker 1: rocks totally. And you know what. The thing that kind

1278
01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:24,280
Speaker 1: of sucks about being a musician nowadays is that you're

1279
01:11:24,320 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 1: not just a musician. You have to be a social

1280
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:29,960
Speaker 1: media influencer. Yeah, that's kind of every condision of entertain

1281
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:33,599
Speaker 1: you know, like anything you want to do, you know,

1282
01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:36,720
Speaker 1: if you want to keep it up, that platform on

1283
01:11:36,760 --> 01:11:39,600
Speaker 1: social media is so important. And if you don't have

1284
01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:42,519
Speaker 1: a presence there, well, I mean it's one thing if

1285
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:46,320
Speaker 1: you made it in the nineties and you're like, you know, justever,

1286
01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:49,519
Speaker 1: but for people up and coming, if you don't have

1287
01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:54,360
Speaker 1: a social media platform, it's like you're just you're certainly

1288
01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:58,639
Speaker 1: not appealing to the millennial crew. But it sucks because yeah,

1289
01:11:58,760 --> 01:12:03,200
Speaker 1: it's exhausting social medi is exhausting mentally everything, you know.

1290
