00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 3: They actually saw Ashley Instagram posts multiple saying it was

00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 3: their favorite panel of the week, which is so fun.

20

Speaker 2: We had a good time doing it too. Yeah.

21
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 3: Well, okay, so we have a couple of great stories

22
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 3: that we want to share with you, all all of

23
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 3: them embarrassing, all of them funny in their own way.

24
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:05,559
Speaker 3: The first I'm gonna ask Ashley about because we stayed

25
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 3: at the Driscoo Hotel in downtown Austin. It is supposedly

26
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 3: very haunted, has an amazing bar. The hotel was very nice.

27
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 3: I really enjoyed my stay there. Yes, there are some

28
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 3: They definitely play into the haunted theme a lot, and

29
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 3: that's cool. It never felt creepy to me, except this

30
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 3: little doll I had outside with a hair brush of

31
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,919
Speaker 3: hers and like all that that was weird.

32
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:33,119
Speaker 4: There was like a.

33
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 5: Little display case out of every elevator that had like

34
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 5: ghostly items in it.

35
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 2: It was very weird.

36
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 3: But okay, so here's I'm gonna set up the story, Ashley,

37
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 3: you take it away. After that, we are in the

38
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 3: green room before our panel. Everybody's in there, everybody is

39
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 3: looking gorgeous. Everybody is ready to walk out in front

40
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 3: of the two hundred people that we're about to speak to.

41
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 3: Ashley comes down a little bit later than everybody else.

42
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 2: Not late.

43
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 4: I was perfectly on time.

44
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 2: Hear what I said. I said, you were not late.

45
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 2: We were just there early.

46
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 3: And so we're all sitting in there around the couches,

47
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 3: hanging out, having a cup of coffee, having a water,

48
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 3: just kind of chatting about life. Everybody's very dressed, up,

49
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 3: including Ashley, and including the person sitting directly to my right,

50
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 3: which is Ashley.

51
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 2: Take it away.

52
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 5: Okay, So Christine Taylor's there, and I was already a

53
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 5: little starstruck buyer because you know, she's Ben Steeler's wife,

54
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 5: but she's also like a childhood icon.

55
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,559
Speaker 4: I mean, she's Matilda and Zoolander. She's in Dodgeball.

56
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 5: Zoolander particularly was a big movie in like my early teens,

57
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 5: you know, one of.

58
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 4: Those quotable movies.

59
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 5: And then she's also plays the movie version of Marsha

60
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 5: Brady and that came out in the mid nineties. So

61
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 5: I'm thinking, like she's pretty much yeah, she's a celebrity,

62
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 5: and she was really cool. But then she's sitting down

63
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 5: with the rest of the group and I am reaching

64
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 5: over the coffee table to grab my coffee.

65
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 4: I pick up one cup.

66
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 5: It's a little bit of a reach and it's too

67
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 5: light to be mine, like there's been too much coffee

68
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 5: drink from this cup. So then I go, oh, the

69
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 5: other one must be mine, So I really strain my

70
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 5: fingers out, and I with that, I accidentally don't grab

71
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 5: the top of it. I more so poke the top

72
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 5: of it, and my coffee, very full cup pours straight

73
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 5: into Christine Taylor's purse, like I mean.

74
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 4: Pour waterfall into her purse.

75
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 5: And like I said, she is a real celebrity, has

76
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 5: quite the career, is married to a I would say

77
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 5: that Ben Stiller's pretty a list and yeah, and I

78
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 5: can't imagine how much that purse is worth. And she's

79
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 5: just the sweetest, coolest about the fact that I spilled

80
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 5: an entire cup of coffee into her presumably expensive purse

81
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 5: with her expensive belongings inside. Thank god her phone wasn't

82
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 5: in there. But she was so so nice. She was

83
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 5: making it seem like it was more of a funny

84
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 5: thing than an annoying thing. And Ben was just shaking

85
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 5: his head. He's like, could this be more classic Ashley?

86
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 5: If anybody in this room is gonna spill hot coffee

87
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 5: into a real celebrities purse, it's Ashley.

88
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 2: Well.

89
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 3: And I had a great view because I was sitting

90
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 3: again directly to the left of Christine, and so I

91
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 3: saw the coffee spill and then I saw the waterfall

92
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 3: of coffee. Just mean, there is hardly any coffee anywhere

93
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 3: other than in her purse. I mean, the whole cup

94
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 3: of coffee poured directly in her purse, and I had

95
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 3: this amazing time where Christine did handle it such an

96
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 3: incredible way.

97
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 2: Ashley, I would.

98
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 3: Recommend that we make a note to send her a

99
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 3: gift to say sorry.

100
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 5: Oh, and she has like not like a ounce of

101
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 5: diva in and that's a good idea, thank you.

102
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 3: And then I looked and I saw the wonderful Ashley,

103
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 3: my co host, who I'm so proud of. And Ashley

104
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 3: has no idea what to say. She is just in

105
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 3: this like I'm sorry, I oh my, like just like

106
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 3: a movie scene type response where she's just locked up,

107
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 3: like it was so awkward and so embarrassing, and then

108
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 3: as really embarrassing.

109
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 5: And I don't get embarrassed, you know, like I do

110
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 5: really stupid things on TV and say stupid things on TV,

111
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 5: and I watch it and you know, two seconds later,

112
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 5: not fas I will always remember spilling coffee into her purse.

113
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 4: And she made it scene like it was no big deal,

114
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 4: Like she was like, oh my gosh, relax, it is

115
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 4: no big deal.

116
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 3: Kid, I have kids.

117
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, she has kids. She's like a twenty year old

118
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 4: and eighteen year old. Like they're not.

119
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 3: Spilling kids I've never done. Yeah, I bet that's a

120
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 3: first for her. But the best was then the scene

121
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 3: afterwards of Ashley and all of us in they're really

122
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 3: cleaning up the coffee from wherever it did spilled, and

123
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 3: then Christine had all of her items laid out behind

124
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 3: the couch on the ground trying to wipe them off

125
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 3: before we walked out.

126
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 2: It was it was magical. That's one good story, Ashley.

127
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 3: I have a good story that I know you're gonna

128
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 3: love to set up for us.

129
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: Yeah as well.

130
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 5: Okay, so it's great that Bet and I both left

131
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 5: this trip with two memories that will remember forever like

132
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 5: these are great storytelling memories, you know where.

133
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 4: It's like, oh, you wouldn't believed what happened.

134
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 5: Okay, So we went to dinner with Chris Harrison and

135
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 5: Laurence Ema and this guy comes up to Chris and says, hey, Chris,

136
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 5: I'm sure he said, like big fan, nice to meet you,

137
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 5: and then he goes, so, funny story, I actually used

138
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 5: to date Lauren Bushnell's sister, Mollie.

139
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 4: And then Chris is like, oh, no way.

140
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 5: And oddly this guy isn't looking at anybody else at

141
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 5: the table. He's just looking directly at Chris, no interest

142
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 5: in giving the table a scan. So, and then Chris

143
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 5: trying to be I'll let you take over in a second.

144
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 4: Chris trying to be a Chris like, goes, so, what

145
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 4: do you think of the fact that you know.

146
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 5: She ended up with with a with Chris and not Ben? Like,

147
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,119
Speaker 5: how do you think about like the way her life

148
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 5: path went since Lauren was part of your life and Ben,

149
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 5: how did it go?

150
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 3: So I'm sitting in the back corner across from Lauren,

151
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 3: Chris is sitting across from Ashley. This guy's very focused

152
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 3: on Chris. Chris does raise this question because he's he's

153
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 3: just good at it.

154
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 5: Oh, he's messing with you, He's messing with him. It's

155
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 5: all supposed to be funny.

156
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 3: And then, without hesitation, the guy goes, oh, I think

157
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 3: she's a lot better off. And then he goes what

158
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 3: did you think of Ben? And the guy looks like

159
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 3: at that point, he then notices I'm weird and he

160
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 3: looks over in the corner and sees me and the

161
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 3: kid had the perfect response where we tell everybody about

162
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 3: social media trolls is everybody is down to be mean

163
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 3: to you unless they see you face to face, and

164
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 3: the kid right away goes, but I loved you.

165
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I loved you. I'm so I didn't

166
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 2: even know you were back there.

167
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 3: You're so awesome, You're so like literally changed one hundred

168
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 3: and eighty changed his tune to being like, you're the

169
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 3: best man. I've always thought you were great. I just

170
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 3: meant like, she's better off now, and I'm like, yeah,

171
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 3: I agree, we're all fine.

172
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 2: Like, but buddy, you were clothes.

173
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 3: If you didn't look around the table, and that split second,

174
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 3: you'd had no idea. So the coolest part about this

175
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 3: was that it was really embarrassing for him. I was embarrassed.

176
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 3: I agree with him, she's a lot better off. I'm

177
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 3: a lot better off. We're all good. But the best

178
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 3: was the scene afterwards where he now didn't know how

179
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 3: to exit the conversation.

180
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 4: I stop apologizing and rambling.

181
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 3: I think his thought was, I'm gonna go tell Chris Harris,

182
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 3: I'm a big fan. I'm gonna go tell Chris Harrison

183
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,319
Speaker 3: this small thing that we may have in common that

184
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: Chris might think is cool, and then I'm gonna walk away.

185
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 3: But instead, now he's stuck because this all backfired on him.

186
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 3: His kindness or his wanting to talk to Chris has

187
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 3: now backfired to being the cyclical loop of awkwardness because

188
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 3: he can't dig himself out of it. He can't get

189
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 3: out of this situation. He can't be nice enough to

190
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 3: me to not make that what he said feel a

191
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 3: little like a jab towards me, and and so he's

192
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 3: just stuck there. And I finally said to him, hey, man,

193
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 3: you're good, We're good. You can you can go, and

194
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 3: I'm fine, like I have no like this will not

195
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 3: ruin my night. I think I said to him, like,

196
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 3: this is nothing about this is gonna ruin my night.

197
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 2: It might actually made my night.

198
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 3: This might actually have made my night, because this will

199
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 3: now be a story I can tell forever exactly.

200
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 4: That's how I feel.

201
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 5: That guy was more embarrassed than I was with the

202
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 5: coffee spill.

203
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, oh yeah, one hundred percent.

204
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

205
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 2: It was great.

206
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 3: And his friends and family were standing right beside him,

207
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 3: and so they caught on and they didn't even say

208
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 3: anything like they'd even They could have been better, I

209
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 3: think for him if they already laughed at him, been

210
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 3: like dude, you're such an such an idiot, Why would

211
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 3: you do this? But I think they were so shocked

212
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 3: and thrown off that I bet that walk out was

213
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 3: so humiliating because it's a nice restaurant. It was a

214
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 3: nice dinner. I'm sure it was a fancy dinner for

215
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 3: everybody involved, and now he has to leave being like,

216
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 3: the only thing I can remember from this amazing sushi

217
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 3: place in Austin called Neighborhood Sushi is the fact that

218
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 3: I just embarrassed myself.

219
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 5: Legit, you guys, just to say it one more time,

220
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 5: what do you think about what happened with Lauren and Ben?

221
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 5: Like you think, you know, like you happy that she

222
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 5: ended up with Chris? Yeah, yeah, much better off without Ben.

223
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I love And then turns around looks at me, Oh, oh.

Speaker 4: Poor guy, poor guy, That's all I can say.

228
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, he doesn't really seem like the type of guy

229
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 3: that like embarrasses himself often or enjoys being embarrassed, Like

230
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 3: he kind of felt like the guy like if I

Speaker 3: Yeah, for this guy, I don't think that was something

239
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 3: he was comfortable with, which made it even better. Hey, Ashley,

293
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 3: Nielsen posts wedding planning update and shows a sneak peek

294
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 3: of her dress.

295
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, she posted a picture of her dress with a

296
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 5: heart over it, a big heart, so we can definitely

297
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 5: see the vibe, but not the entire thing. It looks

298
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 5: pretty form fitting and it has a gorgeous train. They

299
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 5: also picked out their wedding bands and asked their audience

300
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 5: whether or not they should go with black suits for

301
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 5: the Griham's men or whether they should go with gray,

302
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 5: and the general consensus from Bachelor Nation was that black

303
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 5: for a more formal feel, but if it's a daytime wedding,

304
00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 5: then perhaps we should go with gray.

305
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a fan of gray. I went gray with

306
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 3: mine because actually told me if I'm wrong, I just

307
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 3: feel like black is reserved for the tucks, like the groom,

308
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 3: Like I feel like the groom should be where were

309
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 3: in black.

310
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 2: That's how I thought of it.

311
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 5: I think it just really depends on the setting because

312
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 5: we had black. But I think ours was like a

313
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 5: super formal and it was like in a mansion, you know,

314
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 5: but like yours was more like in a like farm

315
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 5: by a lake feel.

316
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 3: So yeah, I have an update here, But I have

317
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 3: an update on top of this update. The headline is

318
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 3: this Dean Ungler shocks fans by climbing on top of

319
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 3: a flying airplane as it flips upside down.

320
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's pretty nuts.

321
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 2: That's wild, right, I have something else to add to this,

322
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 2: can I?

323
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 4: Okay? Yeah?

324
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 3: So Dean and I just played golf together last week. Yeah,

325
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 3: it was awesome. I love Dean and I love seeing him.

326
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 3: But he's out here in Colorado, and so Dean's everywhere

327
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 3: all of the world all at once. And I asked him,

328
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 3: what are you doing in Colorado? I just knew he

329
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 3: was here because he had texted me to climb with him.

330
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 3: But due to some health issues I have, I can't

331
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 3: be climbing fourteen fourteener right now. And so I said,

332
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 3: let's go play golf and he said yes. And he

333
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 3: comes down in his truck and his truck's all suited

334
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 3: out so that he's living in his truck. He tells

335
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 3: me he's literally living out of his truck. It's not

336
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 3: a van anymore, it's a truck. And he's just built

337
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 3: a bed in the back. And what Dean is doing

338
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 3: is he is doing a feat in all my years

339
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 3: of living in Denver that I've never heard of. He's

340
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 3: trying to climb every fourteen er, which there is over

341
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 3: fifty of them, in not just a year, not just

342
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 3: a lifetime, but in the months leading up to his wedding.

343
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, And the reasoning behind that is because once they're married,

344
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 5: and start thinking about having kids.

345
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 4: Caitlin doesn't want I'm doing dangerous things like this.

346
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 2: Fourteen ers aren't dangerous.

347
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 3: What's a fourteener. It's a mountain that's fourteen thousand feet.

348
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 3: So like they're like, it's like a seven hour hike.

349
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 3: It's done every weekend by hundreds and hundreds and thousands

350
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 3: of people in Colorado on the weekends. It's like a

351
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 3: seven hour hike. They're beautiful people. Accomplishment. But for him

352
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 3: to do this in like one hundred and twenty days

353
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 3: is something everybody on Instagram should be following because it

354
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 3: would be a massive feat if he gets it done.

355
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 3: And he's working on it right now. Yeah, he has

356
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,640
Speaker 3: this idea that once he gets married that he can't

357
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 3: do this stuff anymore. And I'm like, come on, Dean,

358
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 3: we know you too well, and we know Kailin too well.

359
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 3: It's not like you just get locked down in your

360
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 3: house once you get married. In fact, yeah, that's going

361
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,239
Speaker 3: to be happy. He'll be really sad. We don't want

362
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 3: him to be sad. No, he's gonna be fine out

363
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 3: there climbing around. But the plane thing's weird. So again,

364
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 3: here's the headline that we're going to break down. Dean

365
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 3: Ungler shocks fans by climbing on top of a flying

366
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 3: airplane as it flips upside down.

367
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 5: Yeah okay, so really I could explain what's happening here,

368
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 5: or you could just go to Instagram like Ben suggested

369
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 5: and see it for yourself.

370
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 4: So it's one of those crop.

371
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 5: Planes you know that you see that have the two

372
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 5: wings over each other, and then like the cockpit is

373
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 5: basically outside. It's like something you would see like the

374
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 5: Pearl Harbor movie. And he is strapped on, like every

375
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 5: part of him strapped on, like his waist is strapped

376
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 5: to a certain part and his feet are basically pinned

377
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 5: down and he's standing while restrained as the plane flies

378
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 5: and he's going upside down.

379
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's another Dean type act where you watch Dean

380
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 3: social media and he's doing things that to me feel

381
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 3: like stuff I would never do. He's an adventurer, he

382
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 3: is an explorer. He loves being outside.

383
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 2: And so.

384
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 3: As I look and I hear this stuff, I mean, yes,

385
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 3: if I'm Klin and they start thinking about I'm kids,

386
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 3: I don't know if I'm telling like my husband, Yes,

387
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,439
Speaker 3: I would love for you to go get strapped to

388
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 3: a plane and fly upside down. Like, that's probably just

389
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 3: a conversation you should have with your spouse on what

390
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,199
Speaker 3: is the benefits and what are the risks. If you

391
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,439
Speaker 3: want to do it that bad, you know what, go

392
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,439
Speaker 3: do it. But yeah, I think Dean's going to be

393
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 3: pleasantly surprised when he gets married and he's still able

394
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 3: to have a ton of fun. I think it's I

395
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 3: think it's like, you know, gonna be shockingly awesome for him.

396
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then there's the thrill of fatherhood.

397
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 2: There you go, Yeah, there you go.

398
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 3: That's that's a risk in itself. That's an adventure, that's

399
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 3: a journey.

400
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 5: We'll wrap this up with a quote from Dan. He says,

401
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,359
Speaker 5: never pass up an opportunity to do something that makes

402
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 5: you feel a little more alive, and.

403
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 4: Then Caylin wrote underneath you're a wild man.

404
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure she just has to shake your head.

405
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 3: She's probably like, I never knew who I was gonna marry,

406
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 3: But this was not what I pictured. No, not at all,

407
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 3: this is not what I pictured. Well, the two of

408
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 3: them are very happy planning their wedding, and the two

409
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 3: of them seem like they're doing great together, and so

410
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 3: we have to celebrate that because he is a part

411
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 3: of our iHeart family with their podcast, and so it's

412
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 3: always fun to see that. And I hope Dean always

413
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 3: keeps us shaking our head and laughing, similar to Ashley

414
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 3: did to me when she spilled coffee in Christine Taylor's purse.

415
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 2: What a day. I just think about this, Ashley. Ben

416
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 2: Stiller heard that story.

417
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, he totally did.

418
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 2: He did.

419
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 5: They've been watching the show, her daughter and her daughter's

420
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 5: twenty and they've been going back and watching old seasons,

421
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 5: which is really cool.

422
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:38,280
