24
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: with I R Radio. Hi, guys, we have a very

25
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: special episode of the Almost Famous Podcast. You know why

26
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 1: because Nick Carter is on. Holy crap, guys, I was

27
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: just casually looking at my rundown, um, you know, a

28
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: couple of hours ago and seeing who was on the podcast,

29
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 1: I thought it was Dianna Pappas is week. I'm okay,

30
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: I wonder if we have anyone else? And then Nick Carter,

31
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: I'm like, are you guys kidding me? What if I

32
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: didn't look at the rundown until like five minutes beforehand,

33
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: then I would have showed up looking like I always do,

34
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: which today I'm gonna be honest, don't look that much different.

35
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: But I did put eyeliner and mascara on for neck.

36
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: It's a big week. Deanna Pappas is here and Nick Carter,

37
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 1: so we have two massive I guess we have to

38
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: we should refer to as Dianna Peppis Staglionio because you

39
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: know that's the real name. Now, it's a huge week,

40
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: two incredible guests, action packed. We're all for it. So

41
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: let's dive in with Deanna. Now, okay, Deanna, what's going on?

42
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: How is life? Oh, we're doing really well. All the

43
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: kids are out for summer, and just like any good mom,

44
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: I've got them propped up on an iPad at the moment.

45
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: I'm really really succeeding at this whole parenthood thing. Kids

46
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: the iPads these days, Like, man, they like that way

47
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: more than TV. Huh. Yeah, my children we have two

48
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: iPads three in the house, and they fight over both

49
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: iPads when we have three other fifty televisions in the

50
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: home that they could possibly watch, and they'll literally beat

51
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: each other down for an iPad. I feel like iPads

52
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: are career did four kids these days, because like, I

53
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: never seen an adult on an iPad. I have one,

54
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,839
Speaker 1: but I haven't taken mine out for years. What about you, guys?

55
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 1: I use my iPad a day Oho. Okay, never mind.

56
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: I traveled so much for work that I take mine

57
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: with me and I do all of my work on it.

58
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: But that's also where I watched my TV is on

59
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: my iPad. Okay, So I'm in the I'm in the

60
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: minority here, that's okay. Daniel. Last time we talked to

61
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: you was during Claire season. We're talking about how great

62
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: she was going to be and all that, and then

63
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: then you know, wow, it's been like quite a year

64
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: for hersh get the break up with Dale and then

65
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: the back together with Dale. Um, do you have any

66
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: inside knowledge as to like how they're today. I think

67
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: they're doing great. Um. I actually haven't caught up with

68
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: Claire in a couple of months. We chatted just a

69
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: bit when they broke up, you know, just um for

70
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: a long time actually just they were just going both

71
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: going through some things. So I, um, we've only just

72
00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: been deeming a little bit because they both look so

73
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: happy social media. So I'm just glad to see that.

74
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: I'm just glad to see them because I do really

75
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: think they're meant to be together. So I'm just glad

76
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: to see them processing and working through some things and

77
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: they look like they're really happy. They do. We're celebrating

78
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: that over here. It's what a bumpy roller coaster of

79
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: a road, but it's probably how it had to happen, right,

80
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 1: I Mean I would imagine just the way that all

81
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: played out, the expectations, all the stuff going on, so

82
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: you kind of had to take a break, and then

83
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: if it was meant to be, you're gonna get back together.

84
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: You're gonna be super happy like they seem to be,

85
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: and then things are gonna Also we're having a conversation

86
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: and all three of us have been on this show, Like, yeah,

87
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: think of like the roller coaster of emotions that it

88
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 1: puts you in and and really you choose to be

89
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: with someone that you barely know, you know what I'm saying,

90
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: Like it puts the cart before the horse. You fall

91
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: in love with someone that you don't know, and in

92
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: a natural progression of a relationship, you date someone and

93
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: you get to know them, and you make sure that

94
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 1: you're like minded and you have the same course of

95
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 1: values before you progress into like marriage and love and

96
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: all the other things. And I feel the Bachelor Bachelorette

97
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: makes you do it fast awkwards. Really, you know, like

98
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,919
Speaker 1: you you meet someone, there's that infatuation, you fall in

99
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: love because you have a few weeks to do so,

100
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: and then the show stops and the cameras go down

101
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: and you're stuck alone in the room a person that

102
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: you you think you love, but you have no clue

103
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:21,919
Speaker 1: who they are. Your spat on that is spot on,

104
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: and I mean so it makes sense on how this

105
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: played out, and we're happy for him over here and

106
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: we've been celebrating and falling the story. It seems like

107
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: they're doing well now. Uh for you you just mentioned, uh,

108
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: you know, your your mother, your wife. Uh, what is

109
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: new in your world? What's going on that we can

110
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 1: catch up with in your life? Uh? We sold our

111
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: house and we bought a new house. I know, we

112
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: were just chatting about this before we started recording. So

113
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 1: we are just like knee deep and like couraging things

114
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 1: and trying to pack. And there's a bit of a

115
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: transition period where it's like we're turning into teenagers again

116
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: because we can't move into our new home for another

117
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: couple of months, so we're moving in with mom and dad.

118
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: That's so fun. I like, I don't think that that's

119
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: I think that's super fun. But that's only who parents.

120
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 1: That's that's a big question. Steven's mom and dad, who

121
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 1: I adore. I like love them. I mean, if God

122
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: is here, like Lynn is here, I mean she's a

123
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: saint pretty much. And they're just they're so great. They're

124
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: so great to be around and They actually live like

125
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 1: a mile from us currently, so we see them all

126
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: the time and they're really really helpful and they're really

127
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: good with boundaries, which is also great. But I think

128
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: it will be a really fun time, especially summer. They

129
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 1: just built a whole, like really beautiful pool in their backyards,

130
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: and the kids and I are over there every single

131
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: day anyway, swimming. But like I think for my children

132
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: in particular, this will be like a summer they'll never forget,

133
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: like they will have spent it at Memi and Poppy's house,

134
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: you know, pounding hot dogs and ice cream and swimming

135
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: in the pool every day, you know. So we're actually

136
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: really excited. It just kind of sucks to be in

137
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 1: this transition phase where we're not going to have all

138
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: of our things. You know, we have so many things.

139
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 1: I have been getting so much. It's amazing how much

140
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 1: you accumulate over time and with two children. But yeah,

141
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 1: I think my hardest decision of the week is trying

142
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,359
Speaker 1: to decide what clothes I'm taking to medium Poppies and

143
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,239
Speaker 1: what stay. And I don't know, it's gonna be really

144
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: it's gonna be really nice for you because you're gonna

145
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: have built in babysitters, I know, except they're they're pretty like,

146
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: we're not going to be your guilt in baby, really,

147
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: I know, which is fine, Which is fine. We have

148
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: a great group of babysitters that it will be nice

149
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: because on the nights that they are home and like

150
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: going to bed, they don't mind if we pop out

151
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: for dinner or drinks or movies or whatever else that is.

152
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: So that is really nice. And we'll be saving on rent,

153
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: So that's a lot. That's a big deal. Now. I

154
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: did it as a kid. I still remember when we

155
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,559
Speaker 1: moved in with the grandparents and it is a special time,

156
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: like it feels like a slumber party every night. You know,

157
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: Like maybe it's just unique cause I was an only child,

158
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: but being at their house for the few months that

159
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: we are felt like a memory. I'll never forget. So

160
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: pump for your kids, Pump for the two of you.

161
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: You're moving now, how has the packing and purging gone?

162
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: Is your relationship still intact? Because I know that's not

163
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: I think what is it like below finances like moving

164
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: or something. The top top two things the hardest things

165
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: that you'll ever do in a relationship or a marriage

166
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: are moving, buying, a home buying or selling a home really,

167
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you, like that was painful for me

168
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: because I genuinely love our home where we currently live.

169
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: I have loved this house. We have a massive backyard

170
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: and for like l a, that's just you can't put

171
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: money on that, and we've made some really wonderful memories.

172
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: I actually didn't want to sell our home. It was

173
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: Stephen who kept pushing me to do so. And the

174
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: new home that we bought was a lot more expensive

175
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: than what we currently have. So I'm Stephen is like

176
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: the dreamer and I'm the person who processes all the things,

177
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 1: and I'm like looking at numbers and I'm like, I

178
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 1: can't do this. So I tried to go out to

179
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: dinner with some friends the other night. Steven's like, I'm

180
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: just gonna pack and I was like, don't touch a

181
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: single thing, pack anything. And he was like, well, what

182
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: am I allowed to do? And I said, you can

183
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: go into your office and you can pack your office

184
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 1: and that's it. Like I'll do everything else. So yeah,

185
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 1: I feel you. I think there's something about decorating and packing.

186
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: I just like I'm such a control freak about it.

187
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: When we were packing up our apartment in l A.

188
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: Jared was like throwing everything in a box, like Rando

189
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: boxes from different films, and I'm like, no, that's when

190
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 1: we move in. It's gonna be so chaotic because you're

191
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: not gonna know where anything is. And I was perfectly

192
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: labeling everything. And then even when we moved into the

193
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: new apartment, he was like putting boxing moving in boxes

194
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 1: into rooms that they weren't supposed to go into. I

195
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: was like that, we're just gonna need to move the

196
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: moving stuff kitchen exactly. I posted a picture to my

197
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: stories yesterday because I started labeling all the boxes and

198
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: I caught myself as I was like writing each individual

199
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 1: item on the box, and I was like, I'm neurotic.

200
00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,079
Speaker 1: That's what kitchen in. Like seven places on this in

201
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: box and it has everything listed on it. And if

202
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: it's glass, I've got careful and big bold letters, Like

203
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: I'm making this more complicated. I think that it really

204
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: needs to be, but all the same way. I think also,

205
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 1: because our stuff is going to be in storage for

206
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: a period of time, I wanted it to be very

207
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: clear what goes where when it picks into the new house.

208
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 1: Then mentally you feel disorganized even when you're not with

209
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: the stuff, because you're like in the storage unit, it's disorganized,

210
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: So therefore my life is still mess Yeah. Or I

211
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: was like, what if I have to pop into the

212
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: storage unit and try to find something. I want to

213
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 1: be able to clearly find that box where I know

214
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 1: there's going to be something that I need. Yeah, just

215
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: don't lose diapets, their kids, best friend right now, I'm

216
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 1: telling you. Then when no one's going anywhere without the iPads, well, uh,

217
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,360

Speaker 1: Did you watch this week's episode? I did. I was

228
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: crash coursing while I was packing. Okay, perfect, So you're

229
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: ready to break it down with us, and we're going

230
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: to write after this quick break, why in the world

231
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 1: let's start out with the obvious. The first topic of

232
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: conversation in this episode just not tasteful for me. I

233
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: don't know, like I can have fun with like sexual

234
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: humor sometimes, but like telling the guys that they can't

235
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: you know, It's just it was very weird. It was

236
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: very staged way do for the purpose of this part

237
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: that they can't wacky do for I also like find

238
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: and call I am old fashioned. I'm so fine saying that,

239
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 1: and so am I and we all know this, so

240
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: I think the three of us get each other pretty much.

241
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: There is a piece of this where I'm like, let's

242
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: just leave a few things to the imagination. Like I

243
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: am married, I'm a rob woman, I have sex with

244
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: my husband, but I don't need the entire world to

245
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: know that and the details of it, and when it

246
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 1: is happening, like there's just a piece of me that's

247
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: like it's it's like the show is stretching here, like

248
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 1: they're really pulling for bits, and I don't like that

249
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: part of the show. I missed the genuine aspects of

250
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: the show. And maybe it was because it was COVID

251
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 1: and they were stuck in some resort and didn't have

252
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 1: anything else to do, so they thought, let's put them

253
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: in a wedding dress in Britain. There's a wedding. I

254
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: don't know. That's another thing that will complain about in

255
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: a second. But I also was just like, okay, what

256
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,079
Speaker 1: are they thinking, Like we haven't talked about Katie's sexuality

257
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: in a few weeks, Like let's let's bring this into it,

258
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,559
Speaker 1: and and then like like I don't know, and then

259
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 1: like for Caitlin to come in like tell the guys.

260
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: It was just so weird. It was like a bad,

261
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: bad bad like like one of those yeah that went

262
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 1: really wrong. Yeah yeah, yeah, like really bad. Like it

263
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: was almost like cringe worthy. For me, I was like no, no, no, no, no,

264
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: don't don't and we have to thank you, so like

265
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: there's two ways of you this because I've been concerned.

266
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: You know, the show has stretched me, especially socially, like

267
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: year over a year year, like there's things that happened,

268
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I don't know how I feel about this.

269
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: Let me sit on this for a bit. And then

270
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: like I learned that either be like Okay, I see

271
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: where they were going, or I see where they weren't going.

272
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: I don't on this one though, like understand what the

273
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 1: viewer reaction is going to be, Like do you think

274
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: people do they want people to be laughing at home?

275
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 1: Did they want people to be like relating with these

276
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: men at home? Going Oh my gosh, this has to

277
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: be so hard, Like I don't know, I don't know

278
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: what the hope was. But here's the other thing that

279
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,679
Speaker 1: happened to me, and you said it best. This is

280
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: only the part that like really like kind of disturbed me.

281
00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:00,040
Speaker 1: Was as soon as they start talking about it like

282
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: funny for a bit maybe, like even when the guys

283
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,079
Speaker 1: were talking about like there was some lass I had there,

284
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: but then I started like imagining these dudes like and

285
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: I'm like later all like, well, I need to take

286
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: a shower now. I was like, this feels like gross

287
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: to me, Like I need a shower. After seeing that,

288
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: it just felt like gross. Really what it was just gross?

289
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 1: And I'm like and if it was something that like,

290
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: it's like not even something you could tally and keep

291
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: track of. It was literally just something for them to

292
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: talk about that was gross. And then later on in

293
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: the one date where the one guy was not that

294
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: masturbating is gross. I mean, like I don't want people

295
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: who give me for this, you know what I mean.

296
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: But you're still going to give you the topic of conversation,

297
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You guys, you know what

298
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: I mean. Don't give me crap. But like later on

299
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: in the date when the one guy like sits down

300
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: with her and he's telling her how often he does it,

301
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 1: and like when he gets come from work and like

302
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: on the weekends it's more than during the week that

303
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: was such a turn off for me. I was like

304
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: so unattractive, like so unattractive. There's a lot going on

305
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: at the beginning of this episode that like you know,

306
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: and the final part is to this whole conversation is

307
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: you know, what does this do for the benefit of

308
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: the relationship. Now, if this is Katie's idea, and she's like, hey,

309
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: it would be nice if these guys didn't and it

310
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: would prove something to me. But then like the language

311
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: that she was using, like I don't really want you

312
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 1: to stop, Like it's it's like offensive to me if

313
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: you do stop, you know, Like so like I don't

314
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: know how this benefited the relationship because these conversations like,

315
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: it's not the first time I felt like, whoa, that

316
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: feels like they stretched it, uh and and maybe went

317
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: too far, like that's happening. I've been proven wrong that

318
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: maybe it was the right thing to stretch this one.

319
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: I just don't know how it benefited any conversation or

320
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: any relationship or build anything into the relationship other than

321
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: like some weird weird like visuals and physical tensions. So

322
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: um odd way to start one of the weirdest ways

323
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: to start an episode ever, I would say, ever in

324
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: the history of the show and the history of the show. Yeah,

325
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: I think it's not going to go over a while.

326
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 1: We'll see. I actually haven't seen what the ratings look

327
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 1: like this season in particular. I don't even know why

328
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about this, but I am intrigued to know

329
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: with this being a the first season without Harrison and

330
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: be with the Tube Bachelorettes, because in COVID and all

331
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: the many moving parts, I really would like to know

332
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: what the viewership looks like, like our people enjoy the show,

333
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: I know, I know. So anyway, I just was like,

334
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: what what are people feeling like? Are they are they vibing.

335
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: Are they feeling this I also really struggle with I

336
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: believe from my point of view, I think it is

337
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 1: an an older UM fan loyalty, you know, and I

338
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: don't know if that those viewers are really getting attached

339
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: to the vibe of the show. Well, there's there's a

340
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: couple of things that have been really great. We talked

341
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: about to speak on this on an episode about this season. Um,

342
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 1: we've been educated and had open conversations about sexual assault. Uh.

343
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 1: That's been incredible and and something that like will praise

344
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: Katie for over and over again that they've opened the

345
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 1: door that they've promoted great organizations in the process. Also, Uh,

346
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: it's a fairly I think what's been said, the most

347
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: diverse cast ever on The Bachelor, huge win. Right, They've

348
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: they've listened, the show's responded. I feel like that's a

349
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 1: massive benefit to the show. Also, I think underlying by

350
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: behind all this, which is probably something that that I've

351
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 1: needed as a view to watch, is the education on

352
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: like sexual freedom, like being able to talk about sex

353
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: and being able to explore your sexuality and as a woman,

354
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,719
Speaker 1: like being able to be open about your intrigues and interest.

355
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: But this one doesn't fall in any of those categories

356
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 1: like this. This felt like a step back, and I

357
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 1: think of like, uh, you know, I did The Bachelorlive

358
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: on Stage tour last year, and a lot of fans

359
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: that would show up to this tour were older, uh,

360
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: and they always tell me we've watched the show for

361
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: twenty years. You know, they were in their thirties or forties,

362
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: and now they're in their sixties seventies watching the show.

363
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 1: And I thought, all through their eyes, like all this

364
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 1: stuff has pushed them this season and even last season

365
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: and made them think and made them uh almost like

366
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: process internally. But this one, I just feel. I feel

367
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: like if my grandma was watching this, which she does,

368
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: she's gonna be like really thrown off, like like there's

369
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: no even education piece to this, and maybe there is.

370
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 1: And if I'm missing it, please write us, criticize me,

371
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 1: tear me apart. If there's something yeah missing here, please

372
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 1: write me, write us about it, because right now I'm

373
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,120
Speaker 1: not seeing it and I need a little help seeing. Yeah.

374
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 1: The only piece I could kind of think was that

375
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 1: she was and if if it came from Katie, the

376
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 1: only thing that I could kind of see is the

377
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: abstinence part, you know, because if Stephen and I did

378
00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: this before we got married, we completely have and from

379
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: sex before we got married for a full year. Um,

380
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: that's the only piece that I kind of got when

381
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: I was trying to not feel weird and gross about it.

382
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: That was the only thing I thought, maybe she was

383
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:17,199
Speaker 1: looking for abstinence so that when it came to the

384
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: point if she was going to choose to be with

385
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: someone or share that moment with someone, that it would

386
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,719
Speaker 1: be truly like built up. Yeah, I'm trying to like

387
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: I think I'm trying to be a little graceful here,

388
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,919
Speaker 1: but I think it was lost. So the pieces I

389
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: don't get why they did it. Wouldn't that being communicated then,

390
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 1: like if that was the point, which it makes sense,

391
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: like I wouldn't have that been communicated instead of just this,

392
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 1: like let's like make like let's play a game that's

393
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 1: kind of Maybe maybe it was has been. Maybe they

394
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: just edited that to try and find the humor in it.

395
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: But it wasn't funny, that's the thing. Like it just

396
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 1: felt gross. Really, I didn't find the humor in it.

397
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was funny. Um, And I also

398
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,199
Speaker 1: don't like the way it made Katie look. Yeah, well

399
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 1: let's move on then, because we've already decided this was

400
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 1: a weird like start to the show. So it continues

401
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: to get weird and annoying. Yeah, continue with Justin's date

402
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 1: every single season. I'm here complaining about the wedding dress date.

403
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: This one took it even a little bit further than

404
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: just a photo shoot in a wedding dress. They did vows,

405
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 1: she walked down the aisle. That was like, you can

406
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 1: kiss the bride. It was the weirdest thing ever. Talk

407
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: about taking a sacred moment and just ruining it. You

408
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: have to you have to save that moment for when

409
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: you're actually getting married. So you know, I had the

410
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: same reaction, Ashley, I felt the same thing. Like a

411
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: lot of times, if they're doing it on other seasons,

412
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: like they're making a bit of a joke out of it. Yeah,

413
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: and if it's like a group date and like they're

414
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: like laughing and they're like rolling around in mud and

415
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: a wedding dress. Different. This was like a full blown ceremony. Yeah,

416
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 1: this didn't feel funny. It didn't feel like a joke.

417
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 1: Like I feel like the two of them took it

418
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,640
Speaker 1: very seriously, and yeah, I think I'm right there with you,

419
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: Like it's a very cherishable moment. I don't know that

420
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 1: I would have wanted to like mimic that, especially with

421
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: someone that I didn't even know, you know what I'm saying,

422
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 1: Like they probably haven't spent any time together, and not

423
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 1: even one of your front runners because at Leastasia and Zach.

424
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, so they're imagining themselves like doing

425
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 1: this for real, Like I I vibe it with Justin

426
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: really like the guy, but like he has not been

427
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,400
Speaker 1: somebody at the top of our list for Katie, right right.

428
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:35,679
Speaker 1: So I think that was the other piece where I

429
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: just felt like it was lost a little bit too.

430
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 1: And to get personal and related to my store a bit.

431
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 1: You know, I came off this show in a relationship

432
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 1: and engaged and like we took that very serious. It

433
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: didn't work out, um, and you know, both of us

434
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 1: are very happy on our own past now. But the

435
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 1: one thing, you know that was always kind of sad

436
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 1: to me was you know, the oh, I've been engaged before,

437
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: Like not that that's a bad thing. A lot do

438
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 1: people have, like my dad has been you know, that's

439
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 1: not like uncommon, but it still is like okay, like

440
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,920
Speaker 1: that was an ideal, like not the way I envisioned

441
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 1: this going down. So the one like honest at times,

442
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 1: like kind of like moment I would step into is yeah,

443
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,360
Speaker 1: but I like, but the one thing I'm not I've

444
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,920
Speaker 1: never been married. Um And again, even if you are,

445
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: that's okay, But for me and my story, it's like

446
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 1: and I've never seen anybody walking down the aisle towards me, um,

447
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 1: and like that's gonna be very special to me, no

448
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 1: matter how you know. And for this moment, it felt

449
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: like that ripped that part away, like you can't say that,

450
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 1: and it just felt can't. It felt too serious, It

451
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: felt oddly not fun for either of them, probably a

452
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: little awkward for both of them. Like, well, again, I

453
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: think the show is like reaching here, like the same thing.

454
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 1: It's like they're running out of ideas or running out

455
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,959
Speaker 1: of ways to entertain the viewers or do dates or

456
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: do other things, and it truly, to me felt like

457
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: they were reaching. Yeah, I wonder this. I feel like

458
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: this date might have even more of a negative reaction

459
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: than even the start of the episode, because I don't

460
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: think many people are gonna watch this and be like

461
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: that was awesome. Like people have to go through go

462
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 1: through divorce, they go through multiple marriages. I understand that,

463
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: and that's part of life. But they've also done it

464
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 1: with the intention of making it work. You know, this

465
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: almost looked like they were making they're making they're making

466
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: fun of it, of the importance of what marriage maybe was.

467
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 1: And again maybe maybe Katie feels completely differently about it,

468
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: and the guy too, what was his name, Justin? Justin? Yeah, maybe,

469
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,719
Speaker 1: but again it seemed to be like afterwards that they

470
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 1: shared a really sweet moment together and and so that aside.

471
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: I liked Katie's vulnerability, the way that she spoke about,

472
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 1: you know, her father, come to find out, was not

473
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,919
Speaker 1: her real dad, and I enjoyed that piece of it

474
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: and the vulnerability and the connection that they had from that,

475
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 1: Like I would have much rather seeing more of that

476
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,199
Speaker 1: than a fake wedding with the two of them, Like

477
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 1: I remember what I was gonna say. Basically, I would

478
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: have just completely rejected this. I would have told I

479
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: was like, I can't do this. I'm not going to

480
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 1: ruin this moment for me, like by playing pretend um.

481
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,439
Speaker 1: And then secondly, there were other ways for them to

482
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: get the conversation going about her dad than like having

483
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: to do a full blown ceremony. Yeah, it is. It

484
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 1: almost just didn't feel like it fit, you know, like

485
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: do this fake wedding be together and now we need

486
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: you to be vulnerable with each other. It almost just

487
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: like it just didn't fit, like the two did not

488
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 1: go together. So, just as a viewer, even if I

489
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 1: could put aside the fact that I've ever been on

490
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 1: the show, I would have much rather seen that just

491
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 1: a normal date with the two of them talking and

492
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: sharing about their life. I would have much rather seen

493
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,439
Speaker 1: that than this fake wedding and fake vowels. I just

494
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 1: didn't need that. Yeah, now here's a crazy part as

495
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: an efficient, because I am I am a license efficient.

496
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,880
Speaker 1: You are? You are really pulling out some new stops here.

497
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: I am trying my hardest, um, but they're not far

498
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 1: being married like outside of a outside I mean, they

499
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: did the vows, they made the commitment, like they kissed

500
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: the bride and she kissed him like outside of a document,

501
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: which is only common in the modern era. Like and

502
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: that's kind of weird, right, Like my the pastor of

503
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: my church at home would say, like what is like,

504
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,160
Speaker 1: what do you need to be getting married? Like your

505
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: commitments already there? Like you like I hold a responsibility

506
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 1: to Jessica right now because of our engagement in our commitment,

507
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,880
Speaker 1: Like I hold that very uh like strongly and personally.

508
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 1: So this, I think we can all agree here. Maybe

509
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,399
Speaker 1: we're agatting, we're wrong. I've been wrong so many times

510
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: breaking down this show, but at least at least we

511
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 1: can agree here. I would have said no to that

512
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: date and that day felt weird to watch, and in fact,

513
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 1: I didn't watch it. I fast forwarded through it, so

514
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 1: I didn't even know. It just felt weird. And come on, like,

515
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: what's his name? Franco? Is that his name? Yeah? Is

516
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: that Franco? Like, let's use frank Go in a better way.

517
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 1: Like that guy's talented, he's fun to watch. Can we

518
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 1: get him to do something other than this? Because that

519
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: guy special? Yeah? Yeah, it would have been a hard

520
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,360
Speaker 1: pass for me too. I think of several things when

521
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 1: I did the show where I I had to put

522
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 1: my foot down and I was like, oh, it's just stupid.

523
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 1: I'm not doing that, Like I'm not going to do that.

524
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: It just doesn't make sense. And I think this would

525
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 1: have been the same thing for me, Like it's a

526
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: hard pass. It's a hard pass totally. And then we

527
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 1: move on to a drag queen date where the guys

528
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 1: are supposed to throw shade learn how to like roast

529
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 1: each other on a stage, and of course, like there's

530
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 1: a new guy to kind of get at every single week,

531
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:46,679
Speaker 1: and this week it's Hunter, and like, you know, I know,

532
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,679
Speaker 1: Hunter comes across a little bit like a little more

533
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: abrasive than the other guys maybe, but like he's done

534
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:56,199
Speaker 1: nothing wrong. Yeah, you know what. I also it was

535
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 1: another piece of the show where I think it was

536
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: supposed to be funny, but it wasn't funny, like when

537
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: you think of roast, and especially when they've done it

538
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 1: on previous seasons, like at least sometimes it was pretty funny. Yeah,

539
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 1: I just I don't think it was funny at all. Yeah,

540
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: it wasn't. And it because they started out nice, like

541
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 1: you can tell these guys are not like wanting to

542
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: stuff too far, and I think they got pushed be

543
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: mean or be mean or be meaner, which I you know,

544
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: I think they could have all chosen at that moment

545
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: to not get meaner, but some chose to which for

546
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: me as a bachelor at one point and maybe for

547
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 1: you too when during your time, I would have watched

548
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: that from Katie's do and go, Okay, who chose to

549
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: enter in here and who chose to not get meaner?

550
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 1: Because for me, it would have been attractive if somebody

551
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: did get meaner in that moment, even if they're pushed.

552
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: I want people to go against the pressure of the

553
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: others and say, no, I'm gonna choose to stay who

554
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 1: I want to be here. But some chose to get meaner,

555
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: and it got it got a little heated. It got

556
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: heated enough where there were some questions asked afterwards. Uh

557
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 1: it felt I don't know. It's weird because like these

558
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:06,120
Speaker 1: two drag queens were hilarious and they were obviously very talented.

559
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 1: They're really good at hosting it. We could have it

560
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: could have been really funny, Like I think it could

561
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: have been almost like the joke portion that they of

562
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: the date that they did a few months ago, instead

563
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 1: of just got it just teamed up on Hunter. Here's

564
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 1: my question for you, and all of this over and

565
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: over to you and Ashley. We've seen this season where

566
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of bowling necessarily, but there's a

567
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: lot of teaming up against one person. Every week the

568
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 1: group has decided who they're going to eliminate, and every

569
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,440
Speaker 1: week that person has been eliminated. Do we enjoy that?

570
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: Is that a good trend here in the show? Are

571
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 1: we feeling like the like the mentality of let's like

572
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 1: all getting up on this one person is unhealthy or

573
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,959
Speaker 1: can cause issues? Like how are you to processing that?

574
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: Do you know? We've been joking and it's like Survivor,

575
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 1: Like the guys get together and vote one off every

576
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 1: single week. And the first couple of weeks I was

577
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: okay with it because it really seemed like they were

578
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 1: eliminating the bad apples. But then when they started getting

579
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 1: on Thomas, that's when I started getting over it because

580
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 1: I was like, this guy is just being honest and

581
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: you guys are just nitpicking everything Like this week, honestly,

582
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 1: what did Hunter do besides saying, um, like these are

583
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 1: the top four in the house. Like I watched the show.

584
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 1: I can tell like like now super fans, they're getting

585
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: in trouble just because they've watched this show. Yeah, I

586
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 1: don't know. I think I'm kind of like, um, I'm

587
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: with you been where I was sitting there, And if

588
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: I had been the Bachelor, I would have looked for

589
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: the opportunity of someone to dodge the drama. Like I

590
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 1: don't like drama at all. I don't want to be

591
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 1: involved and stuff like that. Even when I was on

592
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 1: The Bachelor, I did not do things like that. I

593
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: just didn't want any part of it. Like I in

594
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: my own personal life, I'm just that kind of person.

595
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: I don't like drama. So if I had been Katie

596
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 1: and sitting there, I would have looked for the moment

597
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: for for the guys to rise above and not because also, like,

598
00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 1: doesn't that say something about yourself if you're that person

599
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: who's quick to like tell or like spread rumors or

600
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 1: create unnecessary drama. Are also just flat out be mean?

601
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: Like what makes you think that you're the person that

602
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: someone wants to be with? You know, that's even outside

603
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: of this show, like even looked in your personal life,

604
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 1: Like nobody wants to hang out with people like that.

605
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: So I I thought the same thing too as you.

606
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: Actually I was like, what did the hunter do? Like,

607
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I get where he was talking to the

608
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 1: to the one dragged me and I can't remember her name,

609
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: but he said no, I'm not in love yet, So

610
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: like that was shady, That was a little sketchy, you

611
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: can't be honest. Or maybe he was just nervous. Maybe

612
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 1: he was uncomfortable and maybe he's never spoken to a

613
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 1: drag queen before. He didn't know how to act. Like

614
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: what we can't process what was going through his head

615
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: at that moment. Maybe he just truly felt uncomfortable. But

616
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: I think that standing on stage in front of all

617
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: those guys and then saying he was falling in love,

618
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: that was probably not a smart choice on his behalf.

619
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: But I was about the same thing, like what did

620
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: he do wrong? Yeah, there's one thing to see, like

621
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 1: not a smart choice versus like doing something really wrong.

622
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: And I don't think that him saying no, I'm not

623
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: in love and then him saying I am falling in love,

624
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: because we do know that there's a discrepancy between in

625
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: love and falling in love on the Bachelor, right, do

626
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 1: you know you're on a show and they have a

627
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: camera in your face. It's probably gonna make TV. Uh.

628
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: I did respect that Hunter chose to take the high

629
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 1: road like that. He did not he whatever whether he

630
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: falls in love with her or whatever, it doesn't matter.

631
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: I respected the fact that he chose to take the

632
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: high road and not bashing me at the guys or

633
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: not stand up there and say, oh, they're all liars.

634
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: He just said, you know what, I'm not, I'm not

635
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 1: going to do this, and that I totally respect. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

636
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: that was just weird. Let's go on to I guess

637
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: that's it for the group date kind of ended there. Well,

638
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,959
Speaker 1: then the nighttime portion with there were so much drama

639
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: and the I forget dude's name that like rat it

640
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: on Hunter and then she gets all like sick and

641
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: start sparking. But like, what a situation, man, what a situation?

642
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: You guys? That was what she threw up over. I

643
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: can't believe. In the teaser it was like this, she

644
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: throws up over Hunter. Drama is gonna be like Greg,

645
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: But she didn't have enough to eat and she just

646
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 1: had too much red wine and that was the real issue. Okay, yeah, well,

647
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: I mean she's shown it all season. She carries like

648
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: her emotions very close to her chest, like she is

649
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 1: she like really doesn't like this part of it. She's

650
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: never I don't know if there's a good way to

651
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 1: handle her or if you can save and she handles

652
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 1: it well. But all season she's shown that, like she

653
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,719
Speaker 1: doesn't have this great ability to press through like the

654
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: drama and the people hating on each other, which I

655
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 1: really respect about her, Like she doesn't want that, she

656
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 1: doesn't desire that, and so you know, every week, I mean,

657
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: just the worst statement though anybody can ever make is

658
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: I think she said something along the lines of this

659
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: night is going so well, I don't think anything can

660
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 1: ruin it. And then next scene she's getting told, then

661
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 1: she's puking a toilet. It's like, I just think she

662
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: wants to see things progress in a healthy way, and

663
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: when unhealthy stuff comes in, I just feel like she

664
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 1: just gets over And this makes me sick, Like it

665
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: just makes me tired, and I respected about her. I think, yeah,

666
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: you don't want to see any any bachelor bachelor like

667
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: kind of dive into the drama with him. M Yeah

668
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah. Uh. And you know why this episode sucked, guys,

669
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: because we had no michael A, no appearances from Michael A.

670
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: We saw his face, he spoke nothing, m hm. So sad,

671
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 1: and I mean, let's just icing on the cake we

672
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: get her to kind of be this episode, I get it.

673
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 1: There was no physical connection there. They were good friends,

674
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 1: like but still good guy. I mean there was more

675
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 1: tears shed over his departure then I believe there's going

676
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 1: to be at the end of this season. Like I've

677
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 1: actually really enjoyed it though, because it just it just

678
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 1: truly shows how hard the entire process is. And and

679
00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: I feel a little bit like just cliche saying that,

680
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: but it is true. You know, it is an emotional

681
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: roller coaster, good and bad. But I remember going through

682
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: a similar situation with a guy on my show, and

683
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: it was pretty early on kind of the same thing.

684
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: Super nice guy, he was handsome, I really liked him

685
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 1: as a friend, but I had to go through this

686
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,399
Speaker 1: whole date with him and then he obviously was into

687
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 1: me and he was trying to kiss me, and I

688
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: was like like, and I'm just not it is hard

689
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 1: for me to I'm not a good liar. I mean, really,

690
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 1: that's what it is. I'm not a good liar. And

691
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 1: I don't like misleading people or the you know, misleading

692
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: their trust or anything like that. And it like murdered me,

693
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:41,839
Speaker 1: Like I cried more on that date when I sent

694
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: that one guy home, um, and he came to my

695
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,800
Speaker 1: wedding like we stayed friends from you. I understand exactly

696
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 1: what you're saying, but it just made me sick to

697
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 1: my stomach to think, like, oh, this is what it's

698
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:54,720
Speaker 1: gonna be like that I have to like break people's

699
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:56,720
Speaker 1: harder and leading them on or like he has no clue,

700
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 1: and it just like it just murdered me. It just

701
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 1: really directed me. And I saw that with with Katie too,

702
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 1: like he's a good dude. Why don't you like him,

703
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 1: he's handsome, put your finger on it, right, But it's

704
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:10,879
Speaker 1: just not there, and it probably I imagined like for her,

705
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 1: and you know what, you're tired, you're hungry, you know,

706
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 1: there's all all the other things going on. At the

707
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 1: same when she showed up in her sweatshirt to his room,

708
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 1: I was like, this girl just wants a night off.

709
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: She's probably so excited to not have to go on

710
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 1: a date and to get room service tonight. What's funny

711
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 1: is that they I said it before, I'm going to

712
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 1: say it again. They had more physical chemistry when he

713
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 1: was dressed up like a cat. Oh my god, I

714
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 1: forgot about that. I was like, why is he dressed

715
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 1: as a cat with him Katie's future husband cat costumes?

716
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: Big wins. So then Blake shows up. He does a

717
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,439
Speaker 1: little what's the movie with John Cusack when he holds

718
00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: up with the speaker say anything, Yeah, I just like

719
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 1: there's something so Blake I after that conversation about his

720
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 1: like schedule when he gets home, I just I just

721
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: I can't So I don't know. I really think that

722
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: he might win, though, yeah I think you might. Yeah, no,

723
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 1: you stop it, you stop it. If he wins, I'm like,

724
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,959
Speaker 1: I do you guys feel the same, Like, I don't

725
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 1: know what it is. I mean again, it was just

726
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 1: going off of the start of the episode, like the

727
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 1: the intro to this conversation. It could have been really sweet.

728
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 1: She was in a tough place. Now I'm interested in

729
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 1: the end of to hear your side of this because

730
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 1: as great as these dudes are, and and it might

731
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: just be me personally. Um. When I was filming my season,

732
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: I had what I remember three nights off were like

733
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: a date didn't go well. I was tired. I said,

734
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 1: I'm done, Like I just want to go home and

735
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 1: get an hotel and the shows you can do that,

736
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 1: like go ahead, so in the dates and I'll go

737
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 1: back just to like regroup. And then twice during those times,

738
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: at some point the night, somebody knocks on my door

739
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 1: and shows up wanting to console me. Now, sweet, please

740
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 1: don't y yeah and watch football on television with nobody

741
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 1: talking to me. And I was so close until your

742
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: good hearted nature came in and you said I need

743
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 1: to check on thin. Now I see this even with

744
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: my relationship with Jessica. Now, like there's no human that

745
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,840
Speaker 1: brings me more joy, and then I feel more comfortable

746
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 1: around than Jessica. There has been many of occasions where

747
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: I've been like, hey, I'm gonna go for a walk,

748
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,280
Speaker 1: or hey I'm gonna go downstairs. I just need some time,

749
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 1: like I just need that. And if she would have

750
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 1: come down, sit beside me and be like are you okay?

751
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:56,360
Speaker 1: Can we talk? Yeah, and it's like no, like and

752
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,440
Speaker 1: she gets that that's healthy. Um, she respects that time.

753
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:03,040
Speaker 1: I respect a time with her. So I just felt like, Okay,

754
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,759
Speaker 1: this is a sweet gesture. I'm assuming like probably not

755
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 1: what Katie was looking for that evening. And then it

756
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 1: goes into this conversation that kind of goes back to

757
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 1: the beginning of the episode, and it really started to

758
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 1: throw me off, Like right away, I'm like, this is

759
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 1: no longer like sweet. It's kind of just more like

760
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,840
Speaker 1: it felt like they were like sexting, which again, fine,

761
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 1: I just don't want to hear about it, Like I

762
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:27,760
Speaker 1: don't want to read Ashley and Jared sexting. I love Ashley,

763
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: I love Jared. I don't want to read how they

764
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,879
Speaker 1: sex to each other. I'm right there with you, man,

765
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: there's gotta be some things that are left to the imagination,

766
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 1: and I don't want any part of it. Yeah, I

767
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: think you're right on several things. So I'm obviously being

768
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 1: the Bachelor bachelorette, that stuff happens all the time, you

769
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, where people just pop in. And

770
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:50,719
Speaker 1: I always started to give a little grace because I

771
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 1: realized our producer probably put him up to it, right,

772
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 1: and then selfishly they would probably really like to have

773
00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:59,800
Speaker 1: some time alone with the bachelor or the bachelorette, like

774
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 1: you doesn't want that, So there's two fold, right. But

775
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 1: I remember thinking at one point, well, I got in

776
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 1: trouble one night actually because it was after a road

777
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 1: ceremony and my producer went to sleep, you know, longer

778
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 1: works one show, but he was like, I'm going to bed.

779
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 1: Was like cool, and I was like, yeah, I go

780
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 1: to bed, go to bed, and I found my headphones.

781
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 1: They had taken him from me, but I found my

782
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 1: headphones in my my music and I actually just snooked

783
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 1: down to the guy's house and just hung out. We

784
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 1: all just like sat around the bonfire. No one even

785
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: had like deep conversations. We were just listening to music

786
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 1: and doing like a normal thing. And I ended up

787
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,360
Speaker 1: getting in so much trouble by the executive producers for that,

788
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 1: Like they were like, what if something had happened to you?

789
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, what was going to happen?

790
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 1: What kind of guys did you put it on? Can't

791
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,359
Speaker 1: be alone? An? What if you fell in love? Then?

792
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: Well what do you mean? What if something happened? But

793
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: I got so much trouble and I remember leaving there

794
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:49,400
Speaker 1: and it was sobbing, which like was enough, and I

795
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 1: just remember thinking like I don't like any of y'all

796
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: and I want to be alone, Like you're you're punishing

797
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:56,160
Speaker 1: me like a child, and I'm not a child. I'm

798
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:57,839
Speaker 1: twenty six years old and I've lived on my own

799
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 1: for fourteen years, like I do need you to punish

800
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 1: me like a child. And I remember feeling betrayed. And

801
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,479
Speaker 1: then they tried to send when I arrived home after

802
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 1: being on a date with another guy, they tried to

803
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 1: send a guy up to the house to hang out

804
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 1: with me and console me. And I was like no, no, no.

805
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: I locked the doors and barricaded me in, and I

806
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: was like, I'm not doing this, not tonight. I'm sorry,

807
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not. And it never is like for me,

808
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: it was never like the guy that I truly liked anyway,

809
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: you know, like I'm not good at multiple dating. I

810
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,000
Speaker 1: never happen. So it never happened to be the guy

811
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 1: that I really wanted it to be, because that guy

812
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 1: probably was like, I'm not going to do that. Like

813
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 1: I'm not that sounds stupid. I'm not going to do that.

814
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: Isn't Blake really known? Isn't he the one that walked

815
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,719
Speaker 1: in the Harrison's room one night? No, that's another guy.

816
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 1: That's a different guy. Um is Blake known to like

817
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,399
Speaker 1: show up to rooms? Or is this the first time

818
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: he's done this? I feel like I've known him to

819
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 1: do this before. Oh I don't know, I don't remember.

820
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: I'm crazy here anyways now, but you guys don't agree

821
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: with me and like thinking that he might be the

822
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:59,320
Speaker 1: actual front runner now, No, I hope not. I shouldn't

823
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 1: say I hope he know. Why is it, Diana? Because

824
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 1: it's between the conversation. And then there was this hot

825
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: headline that we had last week where he was like,

826
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 1: Katie doesn't mind it if I say, and I'm like, okay,

827
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 1: there's really just like something not romantic, and I'm like

828
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: not being wooed by you. I think that's why I'm

829
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 1: saying no, I stu dn't do that because I'm not Katie.

830
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 1: Maybe she totally likes him, I don't know. But he

831
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 1: reminds me of like that bro like in college who

832
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:28,400
Speaker 1: was just like a bro Like he was the one

833
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,359
Speaker 1: who was willing to go out every Friday Saturday night

834
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,440
Speaker 1: and get as wasted as possible and be the biggest

835
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 1: asshole you know that he could possibly be like that

836
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 1: for me, that's what I get from him. And I

837
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 1: was never attracted to dudes like that to begin with,

838
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 1: so I'm surely not now after being married for ten years,

839
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: Like I'm just so turned off by that at all, Like, period,

840
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 1: I don't think he wins, ash I really don't. I mean,

841
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,919
Speaker 1: and if then this is my like viewer opinion, if

842
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: he won, I believe this romantic gesture that he just

843
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:02,320
Speaker 1: did would have came off a little more romantic. So

844
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,800
Speaker 1: so the show is like, hey, we can root for

845
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 1: this guy. Like, I just felt like it was fine.

846
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 1: It worked for them. They obviously had a good time.

847
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,399
Speaker 1: Katie you know, invited him in, but I just don't

848
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 1: feel like it got maybe the then you say that,

849
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:24,080
Speaker 1: like she could have been like, no, you cannot come in. Ideah,

850
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: I don't know anymore. This this whole thing was Wow,

851
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,399
Speaker 1: this whole episode made me feel confused. Uh, Ashley, let's

852
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 1: transfer them into the road ceremony, which we see coming

853
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 1: up next. Utail party gets canceled. Good decision, because I

854
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,480
Speaker 1: do really think that, like the conversations weren't going to

855
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 1: make a difference here. She does pull Hunter aside. She

856
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 1: said that she needs to like get closure on what

857
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 1: was going on, but like, don't really get closure right,

858
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 1: Like I don't. I felt nothing that conversation. I don't

859
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:05,160
Speaker 1: know that they established anything. Um, But then she goes

860
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 1: ahead and eliminates him. She also eliminates Aaron, Trey, and James,

861
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 1: And isn't that interesting that Trey gets eliminated because Ben

862
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 1: we had that conversation last week about how the group

863
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 1: date Rose isn't that big of a deal. Yeah it is.

864
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:23,399
Speaker 1: It's it's super interesting. You know. Katie's new kind of

865
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 1: like claimed the thing this season. And I'm a huge

866
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 1: Katie fan. Is this Hey, let's pause the road ceremony

867
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 1: and pull somebody outside move that's been done multiple times

868
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:36,879
Speaker 1: this season. It's it's an interesting move. I don't hate it, uh,

869
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 1: but what it does? I just think about these poor

870
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 1: dudes standing there, like you know that camera's shift, you

871
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: know that it's probably a good hour long break where

872
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 1: these dudes are just standing there waiting for an hour

873
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,439
Speaker 1: to this thing to get done. Like that's the part

874
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,960
Speaker 1: I feel bad for. But for her at least, maybe

875
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,720
Speaker 1: she's feeling like, hey, if I have these conversations um

876
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 1: outside of the public, then I can break up with

877
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:03,920
Speaker 1: him easier or give them a little more like push

878
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 1: out the door. But yeah, it Katie's moved. So Ashley

879
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:11,400
Speaker 1: who was eliminated this week who stayed Trey, Aaron Hunter,

880
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 1: and James all not surprising except for the fact that

881
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 1: Brendan stayed Who is this Brendan. We've never seen them talk.

882
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 1: We've seen them talk once. Okay, we felt nothing and

883
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 1: he stayed over. I think it's Hunter him staying over

884
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 1: Hunter and Tray and even maybe James feels weird. Yeah.

885
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 1: I also felt like for producers alone, like they could

886
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 1: have stretched out drama for episodes that they just kept

887
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:45,320
Speaker 1: Hunter like, and I feel like they do that every season.

888
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 1: They like keep somebody along, like can milk the drama

889
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: piece of it. So I actually be surprised that that

890
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,440
Speaker 1: he got the first season, we don't have somebody drag on.

891
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:59,200
Speaker 1: So the remainder The remainders are Blake, Andrew, Greg, Michael A,

892
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:03,600
Speaker 1: Mike p In, Brendan Wow, so like we only have

893
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 1: we only have six We only have six guys, three, four, five.

894
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 1: It comes fast and then and then Justin Justin So

895
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 1: there's seven guys. Wow, it goes fast. Yeah, it flies by.

896
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 1: I mean we're we're getting closer and closer to hometowns

897
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: were two episodes away. I will say this, I think

898
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 1: we're done with the with anybody getting isolated and pushed out.

899
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,839
Speaker 1: The door. I think these guys are a good group

900
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,880
Speaker 1: of guys. I think it's a great top seven. I

901
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:35,840
Speaker 1: think she has a solid group to choose from. And

902
00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:39,799
Speaker 1: I believe here's my assumption this that in itself will

903
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 1: make this the hardest for her is that she has

904
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: so many good guys and I think she's having feelings

905
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 1: for multiple men at this point, that that will be

906
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 1: the hardest thing as she moves forward. Is trying to

907
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 1: near it down. Yeah, are really just trying to um

908
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,839
Speaker 1: to work on those individual relationships, because I do think

909
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,400
Speaker 1: you're right. I think she has some pretty strong actions

910
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 1: with multiple guys, and I think really once you get

911
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: down to hometown dates, things start to look for real,

912
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 1: you know, like you have real emotions invested and all

913
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 1: of that. But I hope, and what I would love

914
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:17,759
Speaker 1: to see is that she's able to define her individual

915
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: relationships without letting them bleed into one another. It's it's

916
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,720
Speaker 1: gonna be an interesting end of the season, Okay, Diana.

917
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,439
Speaker 1: We we ended every time in this way. We're gonna

918
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,719
Speaker 1: do it with you on here. And just because when

919
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 1: we have seven left, who is your top two for Katie?

920
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,920
Speaker 1: As we move in to the next couple of weeks.

921
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,799
Speaker 1: I can't I can't pick I don't have a talk

922
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 1: two and for the life of me, I can't remember

923
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,839
Speaker 1: their names. Yea enough and that should just tell you,

924
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 1: like the season itself is, but I'm not there yet.

925
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:50,960
Speaker 1: I can't pick um talk to Okay, Ashley, you're always

926
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,040
Speaker 1: good at this. Who is your top two? Now that

927
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:56,759
Speaker 1: kind of b is gone? Hunter is gone? What's going on?

928
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 1: Greg and Blake? Yeah? Jeez? I still think Andrew's up

929
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,240
Speaker 1: there for me and Greg I think are the two

930
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:10,319
Speaker 1: top choices for me, mostly because I'm cheating and going

931
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,600
Speaker 1: off of that teaser at the end where she jumps

932
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 1: into Andrew's arms and in yells, and I mean, there's

933
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 1: like something special in that moment. I don't know really

934
00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,839
Speaker 1: that's a departure moment. But I'm forgetting, you know, like

935
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,399
Speaker 1: I'm forgetting michael A. There. I think Michael A might

936
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,480
Speaker 1: even be up there above Blake. Still, like Blake isn't

937
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 1: even in my top three because I think Michael A

938
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,520
Speaker 1: took a week off because he's about to come back

939
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,959
Speaker 1: in a huge way next week. Uh, but we'll see

940
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 1: a lot of questions. A weird episode, I would say

941
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 1: it wasn't my favorite episode. I can't say that it

942
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,160
Speaker 1: wasn't a great episode because we still, you know, accomplished

943
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 1: what we needed to. We got to Rose ceremony. Uh.

944
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:50,920
Speaker 1: But I'm hoping the rest of the season we no

945
00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,240
Speaker 1: longer have to hear about wacky Dus. That just doesn't

946
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 1: seem good to me. Yeah, I don't want to talk

947
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 1: about that anymore. To see any more about it, I

948
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,239
Speaker 1: hope that they don't talk about it anymore. I don't

949
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 1: want to have that just awkward. Well, Dianna, thank you

950
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 1: for coming on. Thank you for breaking down the episode.

964
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:11,680

Speaker 1: were floating around for um some time, and and it

966
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,520

00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,560
Speaker 1: I live in Vegas. Um, I I could literally drive

968
00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:26,120

969
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:28,759

00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 1: stage for two years. It was like had about a shows,

974
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 1: um that we had done. It was one of the

975
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:47,080
Speaker 1: best fastest selling residencies in history in Vegas. And yeah,

976
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: it's just great to be back home and also with

977
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,799
Speaker 1: a really cool um twist, a little holiday vibe that

978
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:56,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna be doing a nice um Uh. It's gonna

979
00:49:56,600 --> 00:50:01,080
Speaker 1: still have some some elements of the hits incorporated into

980
00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:03,560
Speaker 1: it as well, but we're gonna be doing some some

981
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:08,399
Speaker 1: classic Christmas songs uh too. Now, Nick, we've spent many

982
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,319
Speaker 1: times at the Planet Hollywood. I heart every time we

983
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:13,840
Speaker 1: go out for I Heeart Fest. We're there, I've been

984
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,360
Speaker 1: there a few times. Why Planet Hollywood? What makes it

985
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 1: a good partner and a good fit? Um? Well, first

986
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,320
Speaker 1: of all, I like to say that's probably the best,

987
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:26,279
Speaker 1: one of the best stages in Las Vegas. Um, it's

988
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:29,480
Speaker 1: just the room. They designed it in a way that

989
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:33,320
Speaker 1: you know, the acoustics are really great, the seating is incredible,

990
00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 1: the the experiences is incredible as well. You have a

991
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:40,200
Speaker 1: lot of just places where you could be really close

992
00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:41,759
Speaker 1: to the artist. You know, you're right up on the

993
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,280
Speaker 1: front of the stage and you know have these awesome

994
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,040
Speaker 1: tables that are set up, you know for bottom service.

995
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 1: If you know, the ladies went ladies and gents want

996
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 1: to come out and have a little party with the

997
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,680
Speaker 1: back plays. It's so much fun sitting in that pit area.

998
00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:59,640
Speaker 1: You know, they're right outside the fit. You knows Ashley

999
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 1: Bossas and tickets every night you guys come out to

1000
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 1: like you're able to form the stage so that you

1001
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:11,239
Speaker 1: can like come closer to the crowd. And Um. One time, Nick,

1002
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,560
Speaker 1: I think it was you who invited me and Jared

1003
00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:16,960
Speaker 1: up on the stage and we like climbed up that

1004
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:19,720
Speaker 1: way and seriously one of the best moments in your life.

1005
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 1: So freaking cool and unexpected. And what's what's funny too,

1006
00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:26,160
Speaker 1: is that I've had a couple of people tell me,

1007
00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:27,879
Speaker 1: because I live on Vegas, that I had one guy

1008
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,000
Speaker 1: tell me. He goes, he goes, I gotta tell you

1009
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 1: a really funny story, and he said, Um, I saw

1010
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 1: you at like this, uh, this Butcher's shop getting some

1011
00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 1: state one time, and I was really embarrassed because I

1012
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:42,200
Speaker 1: didn't want to like like look at you because when

1013
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,320
Speaker 1: you had performed he did the residency. Um, I felt

1014
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,279
Speaker 1: like I was the only guy in the audience that

1015
00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:49,360
Speaker 1: you were like looking straight out the entire time, and

1016
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:51,319
Speaker 1: I think you were going to remember and recognize who

1017
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 1: I was, and so he was like hiding from me.

1018
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 1: And so my point is that like like you're literally

1019
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:01,480
Speaker 1: like right in our faces and like you can touch everybody,

1020
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:04,520
Speaker 1: but it's like that little uncomfortable feeling like if you're

1021
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,760
Speaker 1: sitting on the performer, but if you're sitting in the audience,

1022
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:10,279
Speaker 1: you're like, oh my god, I get like living at

1023
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 1: just me so personal. No, you guys are great at

1024
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 1: eye contact. As a boy bander. You know how important

1025
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:20,280
Speaker 1: eye contact is with your audience, because like that moment

1026
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 1: that you share like three seconds with a girl is

1027
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:26,239
Speaker 1: going to last the rest of her life. It's so funny. Yeah, no,

1028
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:29,000
Speaker 1: we it's I mean, look, yeah, we've been doing it.

1029
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 1: I've been doing it since I was eleven years old.

1030
00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:33,320
Speaker 1: It's going on twenty eight years and the Backstreet Boys

1031
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 1: and so, um, yeah, I guess you can say we're

1032
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 1: seasoned now. Nick, I've always been trigued by this. I've

1033
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:43,240
Speaker 1: been to a few shows in Las Vegas. They've always

1034
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:46,400
Speaker 1: been incredible. But you've traveled the world with the Backstreet Boys.

1035
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 1: You've traveled the world performing. When when somebody wants to

1036
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:51,799
Speaker 1: come to a Las Vegas show, are they getting the

1037
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,760
Speaker 1: same energy as they would Uh maybe in a bigger,

1038
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,840
Speaker 1: more open arena, Like do you feel like they're getting

1039
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:03,480
Speaker 1: an experience that's worth coming to? Um? I think it's

1040
00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:08,080
Speaker 1: in some ways it's different and better. Um because there's

1041
00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 1: only what like five thousand seats in that that theater

1042
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,520
Speaker 1: and um, you know, you're again, like I said, you're

1043
00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 1: really really close. But the stage is really big. It's

1044
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:20,359
Speaker 1: a very big stage, and you can fill it with

1045
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:24,440
Speaker 1: so many amazing you know, set pieces and a band

1046
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:28,239
Speaker 1: or whatever you decide to do. Um, but it's you're

1047
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:32,400
Speaker 1: getting you're definitely getting a piece of what a live performances.

1048
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,440
Speaker 1: That was something that on our last residency a lot

1049
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:38,160
Speaker 1: of the lot of the artists did, like the still

1050
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 1: celine John's, the sets and all these you know things,

1051
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 1: that was very um cirque kind of driven. We we

1052
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:47,239
Speaker 1: made it a point to to bring almost like a

1053
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:50,960
Speaker 1: pop rock show, you know, into into the theater, which

1054
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:54,120
Speaker 1: would give you a more of you know, a live

1055
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 1: arena show kind of experience. And yeah, so that's what

1056
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:01,000
Speaker 1: that stage is really good for. Awesome. So what made

1057
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:04,839
Speaker 1: you and your wife Lauren moved to Vegas? First of all,

1058
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:11,279
Speaker 1: we love the heat, Um same and he decided to

1059
00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 1: move to Vegas. No, no, honestly, it's I we came

1060
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:19,920
Speaker 1: to Las Vegas for the residency. We didn't expect to

1061
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:23,719
Speaker 1: stay there necessarily. UM my son, you know, he was

1062
00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:26,600
Speaker 1: just turning like a year old, and we had we

1063
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,319
Speaker 1: came from Calabasas, we were in hidden Hills for a while,

1064
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,239
Speaker 1: and um just decided to take a chance stay there

1065
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:35,319
Speaker 1: for the residency by a house and kind of just

1066
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,239
Speaker 1: you know, see what it's all what it's about. And

1067
00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:41,680
Speaker 1: a lot of people who moved to Vegas they say

1068
00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:43,479
Speaker 1: the same thing. They're like, oh, I was only gonna

1069
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:45,800
Speaker 1: be here for like, you know, a couple of years,

1070
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:47,880
Speaker 1: and then they're there for thirty years. And the reason

1071
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:51,759
Speaker 1: for that is that it's just a really incredible community.

1072
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:54,520
Speaker 1: A lot of people think about the Strip as being like, oh, well,

1073
00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:57,600
Speaker 1: that's what it's all about. But there's a big city outside,

1074
00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:01,280
Speaker 1: you know of Las Vegas, and and a really loyal

1075
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:04,520
Speaker 1: community um that just they love each other and they

1076
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,359
Speaker 1: take care of each other. There's great food there, you know,

1077
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:10,239
Speaker 1: Like if I want, I can kind of just you know,

1078
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 1: jump in the car and go get Nobu or whatever

1079
00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 1: you know at you know, in one of the casinos, um.

1080
00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,480
Speaker 1: And if I want to, which I don't do a lot,

1081
00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:22,200
Speaker 1: you can go a gamble if you want. But but no,

1082
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:24,520
Speaker 1: for the most part, it's a it's a really really

1083
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,640
Speaker 1: great city. And I like, you know, you think of

1084
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:30,640
Speaker 1: Hollywood as being like the obviously one of the entertainment

1085
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:32,960
Speaker 1: capitals of the world when it comes to the movies, Well,

1086
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:35,279
Speaker 1: let me listen. Other than maybe like Broadway or like

1087
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 1: a little bit of New York. It's like the It's

1088
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:41,600
Speaker 1: or maybe even Nashville with the you know, the music vibe.

1089
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:44,040
Speaker 1: I think it's on one of the live music entertainment

1090
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 1: capitals of the world. So I feel at home there

1091
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:50,880
Speaker 1: for sure. You guys, welcome your third child in April, Pearl.

1092
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:54,399
Speaker 1: Always being a dad to three, oh my god. So

1093
00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:56,839
Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a lot of work, that's for sure.

1094
00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,960
Speaker 1: Um And and it's not really know having you know,

1095
00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 1: three children. My son, you know, he's turning five or

1096
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:09,000
Speaker 1: he turned five, and daughter turning to seriously spring two,

1097
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,879
Speaker 1: and the Pearl is a little bit over two months old,

1098
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:16,520
Speaker 1: you know, the personalities, the differences between all of them.

1099
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:20,840
Speaker 1: The for I think what's the hardest part is delegating time,

1100
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,840
Speaker 1: you know, to to them because they want your attention,

1101
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:26,600
Speaker 1: you know, they want you know, every every one of them,

1102
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 1: you know. So there's a lot of that kind of

1103
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:30,400
Speaker 1: like you know, passing around and just kind of just

1104
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,720
Speaker 1: you know, finding finding the time to cater to their

1105
00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 1: their um their emotions and their needs. And that takes

1106
00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:39,600
Speaker 1: a lot of working, a lot of energy. So and

1107
00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:43,160
Speaker 1: now I have to because for the past year we've

1108
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:47,320
Speaker 1: all been in quarantine and you know, I've been nothing

1109
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 1: but just dad, you know, didn't do anything else other

1110
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:53,239
Speaker 1: than that changing diapers, and and just now I got

1111
00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:57,560
Speaker 1: to integrate the this entertainer side of me back into

1112
00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:00,359
Speaker 1: it again. And that, to me, there's a little bit

1113
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 1: of a tug of war going on, you know, an

1114
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:05,399
Speaker 1: internal battle, because you know, now I have to kind

1115
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 1: of dedicate a little bit of kind to myself when

1116
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:09,440
Speaker 1: I really don't want to. I want to just dedicate

1117
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 1: to my kids. The A little personal question, my final

1118
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:15,120
Speaker 1: question for you, because we've talked over the last couple

1119
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 1: of weeks here on this podcast a ton about transitions

1120
00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:21,640
Speaker 1: in life and about different seasons of life. You know, Nick,

1121
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:26,280
Speaker 1: you are, um, one of the best known performers in

1122
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:30,640
Speaker 1: the world. Again, You've traveled the world. You've had people

1123
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:35,439
Speaker 1: crying at eye contact with you, uh and your dad

1124
00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 1: and you're a good dad now. And how like as

1125
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: you've transitioned into this role you just talked about it

1126
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:44,360
Speaker 1: a bit, But how has that been for you to

1127
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:47,440
Speaker 1: kind of in a sense rip away the label of

1128
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 1: you know, single backstreet boy on a stage and then

1129
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:56,000
Speaker 1: move into this well, um, you know as a father. Um,

1130
00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 1: you know, you you don't realize until you actually, you know,

1131
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:05,560
Speaker 1: have your first child. You know how it how basically

1132
00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 1: it's not about you anymore. You know, as an entertainer,

1133
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:13,479
Speaker 1: you know, as a performer, you know, there's a little

1134
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:17,880
Speaker 1: bit of that like obviously you're you're a show person

1135
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:20,280
Speaker 1: and you're you know, you gotta kind of like do

1136
00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:23,160
Speaker 1: the things to to to live that type of lifestyle.

1137
00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 1: But you know, when you're a father or a mother, um,

1138
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,440
Speaker 1: you know, you realize it's not about you and it's

1139
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:32,880
Speaker 1: about them. And that's pretty much how I live my

1140
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:36,560
Speaker 1: life now is is everything everything I do is for them.

1141
00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:40,360
Speaker 1: You know. The money that makes is for the schools. Um.

1142
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:44,120
Speaker 1: You know, the I drive a pickup truck. Now that

1143
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:48,160
Speaker 1: you know, I don't care about material things, um, you

1144
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:52,200
Speaker 1: know as as much um and just you know, food,

1145
00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:55,640
Speaker 1: that the simple things. And and when now that I

1146
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,840
Speaker 1: realize that when I do go out and I do work,

1147
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 1: and I do perform and I do those things, there's

1148
00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:05,160
Speaker 1: a real purpose behind it, you know that that drives

1149
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:07,200
Speaker 1: me to to be the best that I can be.

1150
00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 1: And thanks a lot for Sharon. Did you guys were

1151
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:14,400
Speaker 1: on a world tour when COVID happened and you had

1152
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:18,320
Speaker 1: to go home and you're home for a whole year,

1153
00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:21,120
Speaker 1: did you kind of enjoy the fact that, like you

1154
00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: had no excuses to be anywhere else. Um, Yes, there

1155
00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:30,600
Speaker 1: was a part of that as well. I mean the

1156
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:32,520
Speaker 1: bad side of it is that I put on fifteen

1157
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:37,200
Speaker 1: pounds that I gotta residency. I'm gonna be a fact

1158
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:41,880
Speaker 1: street boy if I don't do that later. Um. And yeah,

1159
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:45,080
Speaker 1: I mean, look at we all went through it together,

1160
00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 1: and you know it's Um, with being home, I was

1161
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,600
Speaker 1: able to see I would have been I would have

1162
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 1: been on tour. Um. I think in like Australia or

1163
00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:00,320
Speaker 1: New Zealand for the birth of you know, my daughter,

1164
01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:03,840
Speaker 1: parl Um, that would have been something that I would

1165
01:00:03,840 --> 01:00:06,760
Speaker 1: have seen potentially, or it might have been a little

1166
01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 1: bit more strenuous. So UM, right, you're right. You never know,

1167
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:18,800
Speaker 1: you're right, you never know, that's true. Um. You know

1168
01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:20,840
Speaker 1: a lot of the there's a silver lining to things,

1169
01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:23,040
Speaker 1: and we are we're all trying to find find what

1170
01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:26,400
Speaker 1: that is. Um. You know. And but I think now

1171
01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 1: that we're all coming out of COVID in the pandemic,

1172
01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:33,280
Speaker 1: I think everyone is just you know, circling back to

1173
01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:36,680
Speaker 1: you know what we started the conversation about with this residency.

1174
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:41,160
Speaker 1: You know, we're entertainers, um, and we're performers, and we

1175
01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:43,520
Speaker 1: miss it. You know. That's and I think a lot

1176
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 1: of our fans and people who love life shows miss

1177
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:49,040
Speaker 1: it as well. I mean that's why you see us here,

1178
01:00:49,160 --> 01:00:52,440
Speaker 1: I mean sold out. You know, you see the shows

1179
01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:55,240
Speaker 1: in Vegas right now are going crazy. You know, even

1180
01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:58,400
Speaker 1: though we haven't opened up all the way across you know,

1181
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:00,760
Speaker 1: the borders of in the States and everything, and you know,

1182
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:04,240
Speaker 1: touring is still a stand still. I think that's the

1183
01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:07,800
Speaker 1: beauty about Vegas right now, is that if you miss

1184
01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:10,520
Speaker 1: it that much and you and um, you could come

1185
01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:13,320
Speaker 1: to Vegas and you know, to answer your question, Yeah,

1186
01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 1: it's just it's it's nice to be back to to

1187
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:19,280
Speaker 1: be able to help everybody out there kind of take

1188
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 1: their minds off a little bit of you know, all

1189
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:24,240
Speaker 1: the stuff that this society has gone through for the

1190
01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:26,280
Speaker 1: past year and a half. I mean, it's a lot.

1191
01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 1: And so it's our job with entertainers to to put

1192
01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 1: a small on people's faces and embarrass you when you're

1193
01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:36,560
Speaker 1: sitting in the audience. Actually, like if there are times

1194
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:40,040
Speaker 1: throughout COVID, you know where I'm like I'm enjoying staying home,

1195
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:42,280
Speaker 1: Like I have no desire to go to a bar

1196
01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:44,320
Speaker 1: or have to go to any event or anything like that.

1197
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:46,400
Speaker 1: But but my sister and my husband and I were like,

1198
01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:48,600
Speaker 1: but we could really go for a Backstreet concert and

1199
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,960
Speaker 1: you get him a Black concert, Hanson concert. I did

1200
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,040
Speaker 1: three things that I would like to be at right now. Yeah,

1201
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:56,720
Speaker 1: I mean like there's you know, there's a like I said,

1202
01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:59,320
Speaker 1: there's a catch twenty two there, you know, like, yeah,

1203
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:01,800
Speaker 1: I did get a little used to being in the

1204
01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:03,880
Speaker 1: house and just you know, rolling around the carpet with

1205
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,960
Speaker 1: the kids and um and and it's like, oh god,

1206
01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:09,600
Speaker 1: now I gotta like get going and getting you. So

1207
01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 1: it's it's it's definitely one of those things to where

1208
01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:16,160
Speaker 1: I think we're trying to transition for sure. Well, people

Speaker 1: that group, and and so it kind of really opened

1225
01:03:12,960 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 1: up a lot of ideas and minds, um for potential,

1226
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,400

01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 1: let you go, we gotta get into one of our

1256
01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 1: favorite segments of the podcast. It's time for Bachelor Headlines

1257
01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:03,040
Speaker 1: and we're starting with this one. Uh, this is pretty

1258
01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:05,280
Speaker 1: much in relation to this week and this week's episode

1259
01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:09,680
Speaker 1: Bachelor at Katie Thurston defend suitor Hunter Montgomery as he

1260
01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:17,000
Speaker 1: reveals Tourette syndrome. Yeah. So, following Monday's episode, Katie defended

1261
01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:20,840
Speaker 1: Hunter after some viewers were criticizing him for clearing his

1262
01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:23,680
Speaker 1: throat and his sinuses multiple times on camera. I do

1263
01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:26,200
Speaker 1: not remember seeing this, but some people were picking that up,

1264
01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:30,680
Speaker 1: and she actually said that he has Tourette syndrome, and

1265
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:32,760
Speaker 1: she goes, remember you only get to see a portion

1266
01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:35,720
Speaker 1: of who these men are. For example, you probably didn't

1267
01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 1: know that Hunter has Tourette's. So I encourage everyone to

1268
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:43,520
Speaker 1: think twice before commenting negative things about these men. And

1269
01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:47,840
Speaker 1: then Hunter said, just to be clear, the snorting and

1270
01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:50,520
Speaker 1: the sniffling is due to minor Turette's, which is something

1271
01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 1: I've had my whole life. Thanks next headline as well

1272
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:58,040
Speaker 1: as Adams addresses rumors who replace Chris Harrison as the

1273
01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:01,520
Speaker 1: host of the Bachelor franchise. Well, he says those are

1274
01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 1: really hard, really large shoes to fill, and that he

1275
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:08,560
Speaker 1: hasn't been in talks about anything like that, but he

1276
01:06:08,640 --> 01:06:11,640
Speaker 1: does love being the bartender and he says, the host

1277
01:06:11,760 --> 01:06:14,480
Speaker 1: role is one that is a bit separated from the cast,

1278
01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:19,320
Speaker 1: so you're really looking at it objectively. With the bartender role,

1279
01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 1: I'm really entrenched with everyone, Um, I'm kind of a

1280
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:25,400
Speaker 1: part of the landscapes to my relationship with them is

1281
01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:27,240
Speaker 1: a strong one. Whereas the host role you have to

1282
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:29,520
Speaker 1: step a little bit back and be a little bit

1283
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:34,720
Speaker 1: more objective. We'll see. Obviously people are wondering, people are

1284
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:38,120
Speaker 1: interested in this upcoming Bachelor in Paradise season that we

1285
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:39,920
Speaker 1: do know wells is going to fill some big role

1286
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:44,200
Speaker 1: or big shoes in and uh grocery store. Joe and

1287
01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:47,000
Speaker 1: Natasha Parker are teasing right now that it's an intense

1288
01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:50,400
Speaker 1: Bachelor in Paradise season Ashley, what do we know well?

1289
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:53,720
Speaker 1: On their clickbait episode where they reunited after coming back

1290
01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:57,840
Speaker 1: from Paradise, Basically, Natasha says she went to Joe for

1291
01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:01,120
Speaker 1: so much advice throughout the season, but every time he

1292
01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:03,560
Speaker 1: was like, no, this is totally different than my other season.

1293
01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:07,000
Speaker 1: This is insane. It really is, um and they just

1294
01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 1: kept talking talking about how like it was intense and

1295
01:07:12,520 --> 01:07:15,920
Speaker 1: it was like so different from Joe's other experiences. They

1296
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:20,000
Speaker 1: use the word wild lots of unexpected things going on,

1297
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:23,400
Speaker 1: so it's all very vague, But basically, I think it's

1298
01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:25,560
Speaker 1: a teaser for us to say that it's like a

1299
01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:29,120
Speaker 1: kind of a season with storylines that aren't repetitive, ones

1300
01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:31,240
Speaker 1: that we've never really seen before. We can get excited

1323
01:08:55,640 --> 01:08:58,559
Speaker 1: some news that we're following and we'll hopefully be updating

1324
01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:01,120
Speaker 1: you more on as we go. Less Murphy says, daughter

1325
01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:05,400
Speaker 1: Nora is still fighting after crazy thirty six hours in hospital.

1326
01:09:05,400 --> 01:09:08,840
Speaker 1: This according to people Okay so Um, she said that

1327
01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:12,560
Speaker 1: she was sick. They brought her to the emergency room

1328
01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:16,080
Speaker 1: where she was diagnosed with group UM. It's an upper

1329
01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:19,719
Speaker 1: airway infection that blocks breathing and comes with a bad cough.

1330
01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:23,960
Speaker 1: They brought their baby to the pediatrician four o'clock on Saturday.

1331
01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:27,320
Speaker 1: She was having the same symptoms as her last ear infection,

1332
01:09:27,680 --> 01:09:30,760
Speaker 1: but both ears were clear and the test came back

1333
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:33,840
Speaker 1: that was negative. Um that she didn't have strap or

1334
01:09:33,880 --> 01:09:38,840
Speaker 1: anything like that. So then around nine pm, five hours later,

1335
01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:42,559
Speaker 1: she developed a really loud, loud, barking cough and by

1336
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:47,160
Speaker 1: midnight her breathing seemed slightly shallow. Um. They figured that

1337
01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:50,400
Speaker 1: the congestion was building up, and so at two am

1338
01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:53,240
Speaker 1: she woke up gasping for air, and by the time

1339
01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:58,240
Speaker 1: they were at check in, her breathing wasn't as labored,

1340
01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:01,200
Speaker 1: so she calmed down a little bit. So they started

1341
01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:03,720
Speaker 1: treating her steroids on Sunday and then it looks like

1342
01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:07,080
Speaker 1: later that day, one night in the er, another one

1343
01:10:07,240 --> 01:10:10,720
Speaker 1: in the hospital, and then they were home. So it

1344
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:13,960
Speaker 1: was about thirty six hours and she was able to

1345
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:17,400
Speaker 1: come home. But like obviously, she says, the worst feeling

1346
01:10:17,479 --> 01:10:21,439
Speaker 1: was watching my baby struggle to breathe. Well, we'll be

1347
01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 1: following that and wishing uh and having Leslie and everybody

1348
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:27,720
Speaker 1: in our thoughts and our prayers. That is tough. Well,

1349
01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:30,680
Speaker 1: the final headline of this week is Claire Crawley is

1350
01:10:30,720 --> 01:10:34,880
Speaker 1: removing breast implants for health reasons. My body is fighting them.

1351
01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:39,559
Speaker 1: She says, yeah, um, I mean basically everything that you

1352
01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:42,519
Speaker 1: just the headline says it all. She says that she

1353
01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:46,920
Speaker 1: has had um really bad hives and a rash. She's

1354
01:10:46,920 --> 01:10:49,800
Speaker 1: her whole body has been itchy and in flame. She

1355
01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:54,120
Speaker 1: said she's done one blood test after the other, um

1356
01:10:54,360 --> 01:10:58,360
Speaker 1: had two mammograms and an ultrasound, and they just helped

1357
01:10:58,360 --> 01:11:01,080
Speaker 1: her make the decision to get the US implants removed.

1358
01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:02,840
Speaker 1: She goes, as much as I love my plants, my

1359
01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:06,560
Speaker 1: body is fighting them and recognizes that there's something obviously

1360
01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:10,240
Speaker 1: foreign in my body. My body can't heal. My body

1361
01:11:10,280 --> 01:11:14,160
Speaker 1: is a fight mode constantly. It's exhausting, it's frustrating, and

1362
01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:17,880
Speaker 1: it's all making sense. My health is the most important thing,

1363
01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:21,479
Speaker 1: and they're coming out. So she's not alone in this,

1364
01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:23,360
Speaker 1: you know. She says that she wanted to talk about

1365
01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:26,559
Speaker 1: it because she wanted to reach other women who possibly

1366
01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,960
Speaker 1: might be feeling the same thing. And she certainly isn't

1367
01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:32,559
Speaker 1: alone in it. So I'm glad she's saying something. Yeah,

1368
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:34,960
Speaker 1: it's nice to bring this to the conversation because I

1369
01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:36,280
Speaker 1: know a lot of people do deal with as I

1370
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 1: hear these stories all the time. Um So, but thinking

1371
01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:41,960
Speaker 1: about clear still as she goes through this procedure, and

1372
01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:44,960
Speaker 1: hope she feels better afterwards. Well, another great episode of
