I'm sure 61 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: there's enough that we've made somewhere else. I don't know 62 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 1: if you know this Potatio actually as a whole season, 63 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: but I figured you ge get to know people bear 64 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: from the source and just looking up information outside. You know, 65 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: very true, very exactly exactly, always holler we can all 66 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: be friends. Sounds good. One thing I want to take 67 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: it back to because and this is something that we've 68 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: both said on the podcast, but also Michelle reiterated it. 69 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: I think it was after year one on one day, 70 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: just when we were able to see more of you 71 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: uninterrupted time and really getting to know you on a 72 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: deeper level. But she had mentioned that you were proof 73 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: that this process actually works and that you were somebody 74 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: who was definitely there for the right reasons, which it's 75 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: not always the case. So take it back. How did 76 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: you actually first get on the show? Oh, it's it's 77 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: just I get on show. It was like a kind 78 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: of a quick process, and like, honestly it was a 79 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: little bit last minute regards to the interview process and 80 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: just meeting with different people, uh and talking about kind 81 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: of my journey to where I'm at now, and it 82 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: just kind of felt like it's just kind of meant 83 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: to be the right timing that kind of thing, and 84 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: then knowing that Michelle was going to be a batch 85 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: of that, like just the type of person Michelle is 86 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: really drove me to want to be, you know, be 87 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: there with her, and her personality is just infectious. And 88 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: then the way she just brings up out the best 89 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: in everyone around her. I think that was just you 90 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: don't meet many people like that, and so that was 91 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: an awesome experience just being able to meet her and 92 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: get to know her on deeper level and just speaking 93 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: with her. I mean, I don't know, it's hard not 94 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: to have a good feeling around her when you're with her, 95 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: no matter if you're you're saying anything or if you're 96 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: just standing next which are just being silent kind of thing.

I'm open to guess this 131 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: is a great segue to talk about your entrance because 132 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: we're talking about food. What did you come up with 133 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: that the idea to come in as an entree? So 134 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: I used to work in restaurants for a decent part 135 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: of my life. I would say at least seven or 136 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: eight years, like during college and then kind of a 137 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: few years after as well. Yeah, I knew she liked food. 138 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: I like food too, but I was just trying to 139 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: find a way to make an impression. I think on 140 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: that first night, the biggest fear everyone has is going 141 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: home that first night, and I wanted to make sure 142 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: I tried to get some one one time, and so 143 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: I felt like going all out, even if it didn't 144 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: hit that well with her. She knew that I made 145 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: that effort at least, but it worked out. I got 146 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: that one one time, and I felt like if I 147 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: had that one one time, I'd be able to kind 148 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: of let her know, you know, I really am here 149 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: to try to see if I can find a person 150 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: that's my person, and I also see if I'm somebody 151 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: else's person. And so I did that in that conversation 152 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: and worked out well. And I think from day one 153 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: she knew that I was willing to make the effort ball, 154 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: so I was here for the right reasons. And I 155 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: think that's one of the reasons I made it as 156 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: far as I did, is because she knew I was 157 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: there for the right reasons. But we just weren't meant 158 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: to be together. So at least she knew she had 159 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: someone that definitely wanted to be there for the right 160 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: reason and find out if we were meant to be 161 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: h Well, it was extremely creative and thoughtful that I 162 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: was like, I loved it, she screamed. I was hilarious. 163 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 1: It was so funny because we couldn't see you being right. 164 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: How long did you have to stay in that table 165 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: table four? Um, it was probably around four and a 166 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: half almost five hours. Probably was your body cramping up. 167 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: I feel like if I was contorted into this like 168 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: little ball under a table, I would have been cramping everywhere. Yeah, 169 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: I was sore for a very long time after. Are 170 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: you slightly regretting it.

That was actually the 176 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: cool thing is that a lot of the guys were 177 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: like offering to like feed me so through that was 178 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: on the table, gave me drinks, but it was like cool. 179 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: Then the guys were actually like nice about it because 180 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: they could have easily just joked the whole night, but 181 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: a lot of the guys are like bad, which was 182 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: I appreciate it, and you know, it showed some of 183 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: the character amongst the guys that showed up for Michelle. 184 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: I loved it. I have to stay hands on one 185 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: of my favorite entrances I have seen me yet on 186 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: any by far, by far, I appreciate it. Um started 187 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: off with the bang, you did well, and then you 188 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: kind of kept it going because I want to get 189 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,559 Speaker 1: into some other major moments that we saw of you. 190 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: So you made a big move early on by telling 191 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: the guys that Jamie was the one who told Michelle 192 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: that some of the men were questioning her and her 193 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 1: relationship with Joe, And you know, whatever had happened prior, 194 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: so what empowered you to be the one to reveal 195 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: him as the source of all that drama. Yeah, So 196 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: when she came downstairs to address the group about people 197 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 1: question or character, I did want to say something then, 198 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: but I wasn't in every conversation beforehand, so I didn't 199 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 1: know necessarily if everyone had had some if anybody had 200 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: had conversations like that that were actually questioning character. The 201 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: conversations I was around for the most part throughout the 202 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: house didn't question a character whatsoever. It was this a 203 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: curiosity type thing where people were just wondering if Joe 204 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: and her knew each other beforehand. There was nothing more 205 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,719 Speaker 1: than that question that popped up. No one asked flight 206 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: fault questions to each other or anything like that. And 207 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: so also when she came down, seeing that pain on 208 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: her face really bugged me because someone was giving her 209 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: a certain information and then seeing her in that type 210 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: of pain and in that type of moment where she 211 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: was really questioning if she wanted to go on or 212 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: if her person was actually there, and I felt for 213 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: someone to speak on behalf of the whole group to 214 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: her and then see her deal with that and just 215 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: be okay with that. I just didn't feel like that 216 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: was right, and so I did want to ask her, like, 217 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: you know, did you see everybody's face when you came 218 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: down and you addressed a group, because when I looked around, 219 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: everyone was confused or just didn't see what or what 220 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: she was saying basically, And then since that people question 221 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 1: or character And she's like, yeah, that was what was 222 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 1: frustrating that I came downstairs to open up the floor 223 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: for a discussion and no one responded basically, And I 224 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: was like, well, that was probably because the information was 225 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: just not even close to being true. Because I told 226 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: her I was in the house, and I also asked 227 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 1: her before I like, you know that you can I 228 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: would never come from bad place. I'd always be honest 229 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: with you truthfully. I think she knew that I want 230 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: to Establis that first, just that way she knew I 231 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: wasn't trying to start a power or anything like that. 232 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: I just want her to know, like the guys are 233 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: here for you, like they're not questioning your character whatsoever. 234 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: If we were, we wouldn't be here in the first place. 235 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: And so that's the major thing, was just seeing someone 236 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: seeing the pain that was on her face, but also 237 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: the truth, not actually heard, not knowing the truth was 238 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: really was so motivated for me just to ask the question. 239 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: And then once the question was raised and then she 240 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: told me to Jamie, I was shocked to was Jamie 241 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: because Jamie was the type of person that owned everything 242 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: he said before him, like in conversations that were on 243 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: camera and things like that. There was a lot of 244 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: conversations ever had that were difficult conversations where we were 245 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: open up to each other, to the guys, and he 246 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: was always owning even his opinion or his statement was 247 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: different than what other people's were, he would own it 248 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: and he backup why. And so when he didn't do 249 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: that that night, when the information was came about, that 250 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: was really shocking to me, but also made me question, 251 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: you know, what else did he manipulate or what else 252 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: did he say? No? And so the group need to 253 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: know who had spoken on their behalf, because I just 254 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 1: don't think it's right to speak on someone else's behalf 255 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: and not own up to it. And so That's why 256 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: I kind of raised the question, you know, to the 257 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 1: guys about like just what Jamie had said. But I 258 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: also wanted to make sure with the guys, you know, like, hey, 259 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: I'm not someone here that's trying to start drawing. We're 260 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: all here for some reason knting, but this is the 261 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: person that you know said this on and it kind 262 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: of took on a life of its own. I didn't 263 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: want to be someone that started the drama, but I 264 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: also wanted to get the root of the problem, and 265 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: it was Jamie. And I don't think Jamie's a bad person, 266 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 1: but I do think he was trying to get ahead 267 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,559 Speaker 1: almost he had a rose nice chest tonight that he 268 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: said that way said to Michelle, and I just think 269 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: he did. I do believe Nate was right that he 270 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: was a little bit threatened by Joe. He saw Joe 271 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: as his biggest competition, so he I think he thought 272 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: if he had raised questions about Joe, everybody would be 273 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: focused on Joe, you know, about them knowing each other. 274 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: So I think actually he was trying to get the 275 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: pot stirred so that way everyone focused on Joe. And 276 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: then that early in the game, I think if everyone 277 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: was focused on Joe Michelle. My question their relationship that early, 278 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: because that's all the dramas by Joe kind of saying so, 279 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: I think that's what he was trying to do. Um, 280 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: but I just I think also we saw the conversation 281 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: that he had with a producer basically saying that you know, 282 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: this isn't even close. You know this is I say so. 283 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: I think that just adds to that idea in my 284 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: mind that he was really trying to get his only 285 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: competition out. He thought that was competition to him, which 286 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: is so crazy. Again, I had so many questions and 287 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: you just answered everything number one. Okay, good, I feel 288 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: like and I have so much say so, I don't 289 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: let you go. I'm gonna go. I don't know. Say well, 290 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: it's so interesting that you say that because obviously you 291 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: were living in it with all the men, so you 292 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: could see the conversations and how everything was formed. I 293 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: think for us as viewers, we mainly saw the confrontation 294 00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 1: with Jamie and his side of things, but Joe our 295 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: point of view, like really wasn't brought into it that much, 296 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: which is so interesting that you say, I think you 297 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: know he Jeanie Sajoe maybe as a threat his major competition. 298 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: He wanted to eliminate that, but then like it all 299 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: backfired on him. Yeah, yeah, well, and I think it 300 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: goes back to like being honest and be true to 301 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: who you are, Like that's what's going to make it 302 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: far in this especially when you're trying to find your person, 303 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: and when you're not true to yourself and you're not 304 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: true to other people, and you're almost trying to manipulate 305 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: the game in a sense, I think it's gonna always 306 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: come back to you, whether it comes back to you 307 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: right away or if it comes back to you later on. 308 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: I think that even if I didn't address you, I 309 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: think it would be address later. But that whole week 310 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: we were talking about turn on, turning to the next 311 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: page after that Rose ceremony where that was brought to 312 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: everyone's attention, and I told Michelle, I think the only 313 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: way to kind of turn to that next pace to 314 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: make sure that everyone knows the truthest what you just 315 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: said is so true, and it's something that everyone who 316 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: has been on the show I think can attest to. 317 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: You can't play the game and expect to get very far. 318 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: It never works in anyone's favor and like for anyone 319 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: wanting to come on the show in the future, Like, 320 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: listen to what Rick just said and know that, like 321 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: you have to say true to yourself. You can't manipulate 322 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: things because it works out for no one when that 323 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: has Please stay in your own lane. It only buys 324 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: you in the ass.

I think 341 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: with some of the conversations that Jamie had with the 342 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: other guys and then um and then going to her 343 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 1: in the same way, said like yeah, one, I like, 344 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: why would you need to know if if Joe and 345 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 1: her knew each other anyways, like all the other guys, 346 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, Like for him to say, like like in 347 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: his interview, I saw like he was saying, like I 348 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: need to know this, like so I'm gonna ask about it, 349 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: but then instead of asking, like I think if he 350 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 1: went about it and just said like, hey, I just 351 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,679 Speaker 1: want to know this, like you know, a lot of 352 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: you guys are curious, and if you put in a 353 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 1: sense that like did you guys you know have a 354 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: you guys know each other in many outs of history, 355 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: like yeah exactly, Like just if he went about it 356 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: in a curious way with that Roshan's chest too, Like 357 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: I think nothing would like progress from that, Like you 358 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: ain't got an answer. Michelle is an upfront person. She's 359 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 1: gonna be honest about it, right and I think it 360 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,919 Speaker 1: would have been squashed right then and there. But I 361 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: think that's where that motive came from from Jamie that 362 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: you know, he wanted to eliminate his competition. That's why 363 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: phrase in the weight did. But the weird thing I 364 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: thought was too that he had brought in that he 365 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: had a friend as a PI that went into a 366 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: bar with two girls and then you know they saw 367 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 1: her with light skinned baller. Like, first of all, pis, 368 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: from what I know, usually work long and they don't 369 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 1: go into He also just has a PI on hand. Well, 370 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: he's well a network person, so I wouldn't be surprised, 371 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: like if he knows actual PI. But like for a 372 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: PI randomly to be in Minneapolis with two girls going 373 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: out or whatever, like from what I know, most private 374 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 1: invest gators, they don't have two main friends. They'd like 375 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: to hang by themselves, so and then two they have 376 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: such a descriptive story to come up with to like 377 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: talk with Michelle about to try to get that to 378 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 1: come up. I lest feel like he created that whole 379 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: story just to make it sound more detailed, because liars usually, 380 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: like people in my experienced, liars usually have more detailed 381 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: stories because they think it authenticates the story that much more. 382 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: And so I just thought that was so weird that 383 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 1: that whole story he created just to figure out if 384 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: Joe and Hurt knew each other, which is very bizarre. Also, 385 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 1: such a descriptive description of the guy, like he's basketball. 386 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:37,439 Speaker 1: I was just going to say, okay, but like we 387 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: have a whole conversation with that shit, you know what 388 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 1: I mean exactly the whole baller asked what was he 389 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: having a basketball in his hand? And basketball? She's in 390 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: a freaking jersey, Like, how did you know he was 391 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: a baller? Yeah, like it's looking to Nate, you would 392 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: think he's a ball because he's six to eight, but 393 00:19:52,400 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: he couldn't. I mu so sprill in them in the 394 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: most classy way. It's so true. God, that was so funny. 395 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 1: But you're right, you're right. Maybe if it was like 396 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: all like seven foot men, Okay, you wuld kind of 397 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: assume you're probably like I mean not saying that Joe 398 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: is looking a baller, but you know what I'm saying, 399 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:26,880 Speaker 1: it's just such a weird description. Um, And you're totally right. 400 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: Why didn't he just say, like, hey, by the way, 401 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 1: like did you know Joe at all? Because I was 402 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: talking to Joe last week on the episode and he 403 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 1: said some of the guys just straight up asked me 404 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: because we were both in Minneapolis, like, hey, do you 405 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 1: Michelle know each other? And he was like no, like 406 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 1: we've never met before. And he said the guys were 407 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 1: just like, oh okay, and it was kind of like 408 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: dropped it and left it. So that's why he was like, 409 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: I'm just confused because nobody really seemed to make an 410 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 1: issue out of it after they asked me, and people 411 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: were perfectly fine asking me, So I think you're totally 412 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: spot on at the whole Jamie was threatened and kind 413 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: of wanted to start a fire somewhere, but honey, yeah, 414 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: he accidentally puts them ghastly on his own shoes and 415 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: let himself up. Honestly, Like it was beneficial to the 416 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: rest of guys because he had a good connection with Michelle. 417 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: You can tell there's like definitely like abtraction there, like 418 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: both I think mentally and physically and so like especially 419 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: he got the first one one obviously went well. Um, 420 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: I was sad for Michelle because I felt like she 421 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: had a good connection with him, and he kind of 422 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: lent me the opportunity between them too, to like have 423 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: that flourish and like at the end of day, like 424 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: once I went home, all I wanted for Michelle, like 425 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: she she's a type of person that's like such a good, 426 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 1: hard person and wants the best, like you just want 427 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: the best for her, and like I want the best 428 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 1: for her. I want her to find something that worked. 429 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,640 Speaker 1: And I felt like Jamie and her had a connection 430 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: and it was a shame for like him to blow 431 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: it up, but obviously it was better for the rest 432 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: of us, give us, all the rest of us a 433 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: better opportunity to get to know her and and see 434 00:21:55,680 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 1: where our relationships go. I want to ask you one 435 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: more question, then I want to move away from Jamie 436 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: because we want to get to know you, because we 437 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: love you. We have so much money talk to you 438 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 1: about Jamie the only way, the only last question I 439 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 1: have in regards to the whole Jamie situation is, you know, 440 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: obviously we saw Michelle just right then and there kind 441 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:20,120 Speaker 1: of cut ties sent him home. But since then, has 442 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: he I know that there's a group chat with all 443 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,640 Speaker 1: the men, like I know that y'all chat all the time, 444 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 1: has he apologized to anyone for how his actions took 445 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 1: away from time spent with Michelle and for kind of 446 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: ruining a lot. It's already smirking at any point expressed 447 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: any sort of apology or emotion in regards to that situation. 448 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, do you think he did 449 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say no, hell no, but I want to 450 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 1: be laughing. What I do see happening is now very 451 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: shortly mental ill will come up and he will do 452 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: this whole, big public apology for everybody to see on display. 453 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: I don't think he has said anything to anyone directly 454 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: apologizing for that. Well. I don't think he's gonna apologize 455 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: at all. I think he thinks he did no wrong. 456 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: And I think he knows that people know that we 457 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: filmed so much content and obviously it has been to ours, 458 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: so he know. He's I think, gonna allude to that 459 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 1: in having certain parts to be cut out. I think 460 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 1: he thinks that he can convince people that you know 461 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:32,239 Speaker 1: that he did no wrong. He he thinks he can 462 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: talk his way out of anything, and he showed that 463 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 1: when he got caught out because he went answer anybody's question. 464 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: That was my biggest issue with him. I was like, 465 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: up to this point, you would ask, you would answer 466 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: anybody's question, no matter if you thought you your answer 467 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: was gonna be appealing or not, you know, to who 468 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: you're speaking to. But then he went answer any questions. 469 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: So I was like, all right, so you know you're 470 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 1: in trouble then, you know, I just think I think 471 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 1: he's a he's a very smart guy and I but 472 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: I think he needs I think he needs to be 473 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 1: honest at some point in time with himself, you know. 474 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: I think he needs to take responsibility, like, hey, like 475 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: I did this, and yes, I might manipulate some information 476 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,479 Speaker 1: of how I portrayed it to her, but I also think, like, 477 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 1: you gotta be honest by your reasoning because like, I 478 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: don't think you were just trying to figure out if 479 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: they had a relationship. I think you were trying to 480 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: plan a seed. I think you were trying to, you know, 481 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: eliminate your competition. I think it got started when he 482 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: didn't get the group. They rose. He was like, Okay, 483 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 1: maybe I don't have this in bagging in his mind, right, 484 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: So I think, like, you know, I think he wanted 485 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: I mean, he runs his own company, so he wants 486 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: to be in control of things. I think he wants to, 487 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, know, everything that's going on, that kind of thing, 488 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 1: and once you're playing a completely different dynamic, you start 489 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: to freak out inside your head, I think, and I 490 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: think that's what happened with him. I don't think he's 491 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: a bad guy. I don't because like a bad guy, 492 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 1: I don't think we'd have opened up about some of 493 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 1: the family stuff. But I think I think he made 494 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: bad decision, and um, I don't think he's gonna apologize. 495 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: Is basically the final answer to what you asked originally. 496 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: But I don't think he's gonnapologized And I don't think 497 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 1: he feels like he owes anybody an apology. He just 498 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 1: owns what he did, like and he thinks he did 499 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: no wrong. And I think I think he thinks he's 500 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: he's a victim, narcissist, Okay, moving on. It's just it's 501 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: just sad because it hurt people, you know what I mean. 502 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 1: I mean he has it's kind of clich but hurt people, 503 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,360 Speaker 1: hurt people. But like he's just gone through things in life, 504 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: and I feel like maybe he's trying to protect himself 505 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: and really trying to give himself like that upper hand. 506 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 1: But you don't do that by bringing other people down, 507 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So that's kind of you 508 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 1: to say that he's not a bad person, because essentially 509 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: I don't think he's a bad person. I just think, yeah, 510 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: he has a bad decision and a bad moment for him. Yeah. 511 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: You know, sometimes this stuff brings up the worst in you, honestly. Yeah, 512 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,680 Speaker 1: we saw other people too. Yeah. Well yeah, the environment 513 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 1: it's it's tough to live in to begin with. It's 514 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: not normal by any means, and it really brings out 515 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: a lot of different emotions, and it's just yeah, I 516 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: think it'll be interesting to see him at mental to 517 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: see how he handles everything, because it's like you can 518 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: only talk in circles for so long. We all saw 519 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: how it played out on the screen. I would just 520 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: hope that, like as a viewer, he did take away 521 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: from a lot of all of your time with Michelle 522 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: and just Michelle's overall state of emotion, like the level 523 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: that she was at, and that was the unfortunate thing 524 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,679 Speaker 1: where I would hope that he could step outside and 525 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 1: be like, maybe he didn't think he did anything wrong, 526 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: but it's right. An apology is not going to hurt 527 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: by any means. Let's fingers crossed from mental All, yeah, 528 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: it'll be interesting. What's gonna be Rick, Let's yeah, let's 529 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: talk about you, because yes, some people don't have didn't 530 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: have like the best run of the show, But honey, 531 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: you had a one on one with Michelle, and I 532 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 1: think it was just so beautiful to watch and I 533 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: would love to know. Let's just talk all about it. 534 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: What was your favorite part about the day portion of 535 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 1: your guys's date, which I feel was like so fun 536 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: and lighthearted and you both needed it. Yeah, I think 537 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 1: just being outside with her and just I think what 538 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,479 Speaker 1: I loved about the day is how simple it was. 539 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: We didn't need anything extra, we didn't need anything crazy 540 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 1: during the day portion, like you know, to have a 541 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 1: good time with each other. I think it was as 542 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: close as we could get to like real life outside 543 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 1: of that bubble or whatever you want to call it, 544 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,479 Speaker 1: and giving us the idea of what dated you know, 545 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 1: with each other would be like. And I think we 546 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: got to know each other for who we are, not 547 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 1: just like who we look like we are, you know, 548 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: just the top top level with the surface level kind 549 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,439 Speaker 1: of of what makes us us. And yeah, I loved it, 550 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,239 Speaker 1: like we can enjoy the small moments with each other. 551 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: And that's why I want and my person. It's like 552 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: I want to enjoy those small months, those small months 553 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: and more important than the fancy moments or the big moments, 554 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: you know. And I think like it's just the small 555 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: talk to be able to choke around with try, the 556 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 1: ability just to enjoy hiking together, and oh I want 557 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: those kinds of things. I want to just enjoy the 558 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: simple things in life with my person. And um, I 559 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: love that about it, just being with each other outside 560 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: in nature. It was this is Yeah, it's a memory 561 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: I'll have for the rest of my life for sure. 562 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: I personally, I love like simple dates like that as 563 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: opposed to like the big grand ones because like again, 564 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 1: you really get to know the person for the person 565 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: as opposed to the activity. Um. And I think that 566 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: that's one thing that I took what you can feel 567 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,159 Speaker 1: like in my season like it was just so you 568 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: had real conversations. Then, so I agree with you. Like 569 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 1: a simple, laid back date you actually can see if 570 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: it works in a day day life as opposed to 571 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: let's go skydat. Well, I kind of blacked out, you know, 572 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: like the adrenaline of that, but I don't know, I 573 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: really love the simple days. Mm well, and and I've 574 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: said this before, it was such a good combination of fun, 575 00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: light heartedness mixed with those you did get into some 576 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: heavy conversations and one of the I think what maybe 577 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: was the catalyst for really getting into everything that night 578 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: between the two of you was you guys made a 579 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: wish that you would find love through having hard conversations. 580 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: How hard was it for you to open up with 581 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: Michelle and you know, the rest of the world now 582 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: as you found out, you know, because millions of people 583 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: are watching to have those hard conversations with each other. 584 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: And also you know, like while it's all being filmed, Yeah, 585 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 1: it's I'll be honest, I've never opened up that much 586 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: to someone I think so quickly. Obviously it's a different 587 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: experience that kind of thing. But I've never opened up 588 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: about some of those things I spoke about or with 589 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: a significant odor. And how Michelle is I think we 590 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: all talked about is when no matter how nervous you 591 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: are before you sit down with her, um, you you 592 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: just you're you feel completely at ease once you sit down, 593 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: and she just makes it easy to talk with her 594 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: because she listens so well She doesn't listen just to respond. 595 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: She listens to understand, and that's it's a big thing, 596 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: and it's it's not a skill that everyone knows. I 597 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: think her has learned and talk with her about my 598 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 1: family and stuff like that. Like the goal for me 599 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: is I wanted to be completely transparent with her and 600 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: to open up completely. Need to give us the best 601 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: opportunity to see if it is meant to be between us, 602 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: and I wonder to know like that I come back. 603 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: I come from like a different background, different family background 604 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: than she does. Her parents are still together, which is amazing. 605 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: I think it's been thirty three years or something like that. 606 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: She said, yea, and my family or my parents were 607 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 1: together for the twenty three years before they split up. 608 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: But um, it's it. I just wanted I'm a person 609 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: that tries to learn both from my good experiences and 610 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: my bad experiences. And I think that's another thing I 611 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: was trying expressed her is like, even though my parents 612 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: didn't work out, I wanted to make every snack Fris 613 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: possible for the person I'm gonna be with and to 614 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: make it work, you know, to the good times in 615 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: the bad. And I also wanted her to know that 616 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: I can be completely transparent with her like that was 617 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: not something easy for me to talk about, as you 618 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 1: can tell by my sudden whispering all of a sudden, 619 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: I was trying to get the words out, you know, 620 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: and just I had a hard time finding the breath 621 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: to like get some of that stuff out. But at 622 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: least it was still audio loud enough for people to hear. 623 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, like I think you could tell I'm having 624 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: a hard time expressing those things. But again, I needed 625 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: to be complete, honest, because if we're gonna have a 626 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: chance at making it, I she needs to know everything. 627 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 1: And that's how I thought about it. And I'm glad 628 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: I said it out loud because I don't think I've 629 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: said some most things even out loud before. Yeah, and 630 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: it helps me to hear it and be like, that's 631 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: what I actually think, that's what I actually believe. And 632 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: but yeah, I think the best thing about it is 633 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: having has Maybe people will reach out to me after 634 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: they saw that and just share similar experiences and things 635 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: like that, and I've tried to reach out or respond 636 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: to most of them as much as I can and 637 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: just be like, you know, I'm just happy that I 638 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: show that talking with about it, about that kind of 639 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: stuff I think really helps. I think you're like, for me, 640 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: it helps me get through it and just I think 641 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: move on to the next steps in my life, get 642 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: out there. But also for other people too, like having 643 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: other people that you can communicate that with, like you 644 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 1: just get to get out there. And even that person 645 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: doesn't receive it, well, at least you got it off 646 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: your chest and you said it out loud, because it 647 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: helps you even deal with it just yourself, just by 648 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: saying out loud, I thing I think it's so important 649 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: to say too, just because I feel like watching it back, 650 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: I was gonna ask you, like, how did that feel 651 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: actually believing that from yourself, because you said you have 652 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 1: said the things that you haven't even like shared with 653 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: other people before. It's if that's one thing about this 654 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: entire journey experience that really impacts you personally, like how 655 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: freeing it could actually be and how much you actually 656 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: grow as a person. But feeling all those things and 657 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 1: when you're able to be vulnerable like that, not only 658 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,959 Speaker 1: does it help you inside, but it helps that relationship 659 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: and you want to be able to feel like you 660 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: gave it your all and like you actually gave it 661 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 1: a shot, and I thought that was just it was 662 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: really hard to watch, But that's so beautiful at the 663 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: same time, and I'm so sorry for everything, you know, 664 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: but that that was amazing and you're a great guy. 665 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: Thank you. I appreciate it. Yeah, I think like what 666 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 1: you said, the thing I feel most is like it's free. One, 667 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: it frees yourself from kind of those those thoughts and 668 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: those things that have been stuck in your head for 669 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: at so long. But also I think it's free in 670 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: regards to the relationship. Once you get that out there, 671 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: it gives you a step or an opportunity to make 672 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: that next step or take that next step forward with 673 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 1: each other I think, and just allowing each other to 674 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 1: know each other on a deeper level. And so it's 675 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: freeing out a lot of ways. I'm going to kind 676 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: of go off topic a bit and get a little 677 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:08,879 Speaker 1: bit heavy, but I feel like this can be very 678 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: beneficial to a lot of listeners. So you got into 679 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: your history with your family and the death of your 680 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,359 Speaker 1: father and kind of that guilt that you felt. And 681 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: I know just from experience as well, from losing a 682 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: parent sometimes grief and death and really hard, difficult situations 683 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: in life help bond people, and I've experienced that firsthand 684 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,439 Speaker 1: since my time on the bach Rod and sharing about 685 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 1: the death with my father. But I think our listeners 686 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 1: would like to hear from you, Like, what is some 687 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: advice that you could give listeners who have gone through 688 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 1: a death of a parent or something similar, or people 689 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: who are struggling with the guilt over losing a parent. 690 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: You know, because I can relate much to that too, 691 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: What is some advice that you would be able to 692 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: give to them? Because I know, you know, I'm sure 693 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: you've witnessed it firsthand and DMS people are reaching out 694 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 1: to you, but I think it can just spread so 695 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 1: much farther than that. So what is anything that you 696 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,439 Speaker 1: would be able to offer to our listeners. Yeah, when 697 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 1: my dad passed a few years ago, I had a 698 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 1: hard time going out doing anything, sets work and like 699 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 1: being in my room. I think you're in this hand 700 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 1: with my dog. But I would say that's probably not 701 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 1: the right approach. I would say making sure that you 702 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 1: have your support group, your people around you, and that 703 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 1: you're having conversations. It doesn't have to be about the 704 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: person that you lost. For that kind of thing. But 705 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: I think just continue that communication with people because that's 706 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 1: going to help you kind of take those next steps 707 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 1: to moving on. And you shouldn't feel guilty about moving on. 708 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 1: You can always keep that person in your mind. I 709 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 1: think some of that. I think at first, anytime I 710 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,720 Speaker 1: try to move on and things like that, I felt 711 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,919 Speaker 1: some type of guilt because I always want to remember 712 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: the people that helped me become who I am. And 713 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 1: so I think your support group and the people that 714 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: you care about, have those people around you have conversations with. 715 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: It's not gonna be easy to have conversations, but you 716 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 1: gotta go out of your way to have those conversations. 717 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 1: I also think, like I'm someone that likes to type 718 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 1: out my thoughts, so like I have a we're docked 719 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 1: out right about what I'm thinking, that kind of stuff. 720 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 1: But it's good to get that off your head instead 721 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 1: of just leaving in your head. It allows you to 722 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,880 Speaker 1: reflect on your thoughts and reflect it's a positive, negative, 723 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 1: or where you're going. If it keeps going in a 724 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 1: negative direction, that's when you need to like talk to 725 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: other people too. But I think reflection is a very 726 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: powerful tool. You can reflect on the person's life that 727 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 1: you lost, but also I think just on your thoughts 728 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: to that person and how you can move on, what 729 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 1: you need to do and things like that. But support 730 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,839 Speaker 1: group and just finding ways to get those thoughts out 731 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: of your head and express them in some way or form, 732 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 1: I think is a really powerful tool. I just thank 733 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: you so much for sharing this. I know what's going 734 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 1: to mean a lot to a lot of our listeners 735 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 1: and people, like I said, people going through similar things 736 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 1: and playing off of what he should just said a 737 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: few seconds ago, like I, it has to be so 738 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 1: hard for you to have opened up in the way 739 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: that you did, but it was also such a beautiful 740 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,439 Speaker 1: thing and had to have been such a difficult thing. 741 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,879 Speaker 1: And so thank you for that because I know it's 742 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,480 Speaker 1: going to help so many people feel like they're not alone. 743 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: You know, Bache Nation, we have some really strong fans 744 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: out there who all go through different things, and to 745 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: have them, you know, maybe be able to relate in 746 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: some way or to see different hardships and feel like, 747 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, oh, I felt this way at some point 748 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: in time and I felt alone or I felt like 749 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 1: my grief would you know, would consume me whatever it 750 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 1: might be. So thank you so much, and that's why 751 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: when we raved about you a couple of weeks ago, 752 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:38,839 Speaker 1: you know, we wanted to get you on. But I'm 753 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: so glad that that's why we have you on right 754 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 1: now because it's just it's special. And of course, you know, 755 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: the show is supposed to be fun and like heart 756 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 1: at half the time, but it's moments like this where 757 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 1: we see like the real human and that we're all 758 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 1: you know, we can all relate in some way, So 759 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you so much. It's all so much 760 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 1: more relatable than people think. We all can learn better 761 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 1: that people, and it takes just an active courage just 762 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 1: to speak out that really confined us all together. What 763 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 1: were you going to say? That's just gonna say. I 764 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: think the most powerful or the most rewarding thing and 765 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 1: my life that I've ever experienced. It's like when I've 766 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: been able to help other people and I think like 767 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 1: that this was I didn't think of it like that 768 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: when I was expressing myself, but in fact that has 769 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,800 Speaker 1: helped people, or if it is going to help people, 770 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 1: like I'm mis thankful that it's going to do that, 771 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 1: and it's it helps me feel better about that whole 772 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 1: thing because you know, I think in my life, like 773 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 1: I think that's the main goals, like help us make 774 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: people as possible, or just like helping be happier, you know, 775 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: help people achieve success. I think that should be a 776 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: goal that people should try to achieve once in their 777 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,400 Speaker 1: life because I think they'll realize how much how rewarding 778 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,879 Speaker 1: is and that feeling that you get. So people can 779 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: find that, I think it makes your life that much 780 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 1: more worthwhile. Oh I'm such a Rick fan.

Your your favorite moment, and then 813 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: you know a moment that you could have maybe lived without. Uh. 814 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 1: I think when Michelle and I were dancing in front 815 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 1: of any Grammar too long songs like that was where 816 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 1: like time just stopped, you know, and you don't get 817 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 1: me those moments in life, And that was definitely my 818 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 1: roads for sure, and I'll remember that moment. Yeah, that 819 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,399 Speaker 1: whole day honestly, uh, probably the best day I've ever found. 820 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: So definitely I remember that for the rest of my life. 821 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: But Thorn, I would say, um, I think, like, so 822 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 1: the one thing that I think years don't see enough 823 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 1: is how close some of the guys get. And I 824 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,840 Speaker 1: think like losing some of the guys. So Spencer was 825 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: my roommate U in um when we're in California and 826 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:38,840 Speaker 1: then um, so Spencer, like even like Spencer Daniel or 827 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 1: like Leroy and Casey and a handful of other guys. 828 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 1: Like seeing some of these guys leaves like you don't 829 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: see them for however long afterwards. And I think that's 830 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,800 Speaker 1: my thorn is like as much as we're there for Michelle, 831 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: you still build friendships and like those kind of things. 832 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 1: So I think like seeing those people like, I think 833 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: my biggest hurt that you can have in life, it 834 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 1: like for me, it has been seen people you care 835 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:02,880 Speaker 1: about goes through like pain and stuffing that you can't 836 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,240 Speaker 1: help them with, you know, and that was like someone 837 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,399 Speaker 1: with my dad. But like, that's how I felt when 838 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 1: the guys left, because they were sad they're leaving, and 839 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 1: you can't do anything, like you're powerless. So I think 840 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,240 Speaker 1: that thorn is like just seeing people like care about 841 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: Michelle going home and can't do anything to help him. 842 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: I think like losing some of your friends at the 843 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 1: same time that you know your ultimate goal is like 844 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:22,920 Speaker 1: being with Michelle and that kind of thing, but like 845 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 1: losing some of the guys, that's the thorn. I think, 846 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: like losing guys as you go because you're happy you're 847 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: moving on, but you also see your friends go like that. 848 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 1: It's like a It's a bitter sweet almost and much 849 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: leave it to Rick to have his thorn be something 850 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,919 Speaker 1: so beautiful and positive for somebody else. I love that. 851 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 1: I love that so much. Um oh my gosh, Rick, 852 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:46,799 Speaker 1: this has been such a blast. Before we let you go, 853 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 1: we're gonna get into this game. So Tasha, you want 854 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 1: to explain it? Yes, okay, So we are going to 855 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 1: play a little game where we're gonna give you a 856 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 1: most likely too and you'll finish the sentence with the 857 00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 1: name of someone in your guys. Group of guys, Michelle, 858 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 1: scroup of guys. So, and it's gonna be rapid fire. 859 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: Can't thank too much. It's fun. Don't worry. Y'all have 860 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 1: to cut it under the bus. So don't try to 861 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,720 Speaker 1: act like I know right, Let's just do it. Okay 862 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 1: you ready? Yes? Okay? So. Most likely to get the 863 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: party started, Nate okay, okay. Most likely to start drama, uh, Jamie. 864 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 1: Most likely to get the guys laughing. Ronnie, he's been 865 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: most guys, say Roger everyone, probably the best human on 866 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 1: NERD time. Just give the ward now. We're also were 867 00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: huge Rodney fans over here in a happy hour two? 868 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 1: I like this next one? Who is most likely to 869 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 1: leave their wallet at home? Spencer? Next um. Most likely 870 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:56,400 Speaker 1: to start a dance party, Roy, He's gone that one 871 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: too a couple of times. I heard he's a really 872 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 1: incredible dancer. So I want to see the moves from 873 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 1: we were he has moves he was doing. Who is 874 00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: most likely to cheat to win a group date? Cheat 875 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: to win a group date? Yeah? Oh wow? Cheat the crupcy. Uh. 876 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm thinking this, but maybe, oh okay, 877 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,919 Speaker 1: he's competitive. Maybe he did take off his shirt during 878 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 1: the rest of the No. No, it would be Peter 879 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 1: for sure. I don't know why I didn't think that 880 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,719 Speaker 1: would be Peter, sir, it would be Peter. I mean 881 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:44,720 Speaker 1: we saw what happened with the chairs, you know, the chairs, 882 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,920 Speaker 1: So someone almost lost someone's almost lost hands playing musical chairs, 883 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 1: which is the first, very intense. Okay. Most likely to 884 00:44:54,200 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 1: steal Michelle first at a cocktail party h Amy as well, 885 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:04,239 Speaker 1: probably hmm okay. Most likely to skinny dip in the 886 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:13,439 Speaker 1: pool Martin maybe question, Oh, okay, that's good. Most likely 887 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 1: to go to bed first met you, I once, says Joe. 888 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 1: Usually even Joe said, but I should have thought about that, 889 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:29,359 Speaker 1: But like I love sleep, like I don't mind going 890 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,479 Speaker 1: to bed earlier. I love sleep. Okay. If I haven't 891 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 1: heard a more relatable quote, I don't know what would 892 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,919 Speaker 1: be it. Literally. Most likely to never milk a cow again. 893 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 1: Oh please me, please me. I hope not like my grandfather. 894 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,080 Speaker 1: I grew up with cow arms, but it was more 895 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 1: for like meat. It wasn't for like milking cows. But yeah, 896 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 1: after it's seeing like all of us going through milking 897 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 1: the cows and then seeing the guy I just do like, 898 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,760 Speaker 1: I'm not like he killed all of us in regards 899 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 1: to how he did it, but I just don't want 900 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: milk a cow. Gang Like you also have to worry 901 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 1: about getting sun? Yeah, like that's not great. Yeah, so 902 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,800 Speaker 1: I hope to God it's me? Is it so fun? 903 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: Is it weird that I want? I have to admit this. 904 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 1: I have never milked a cow, and I oddly really 905 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,800 Speaker 1: want to. Why. I just sorry after watching Rodney do, 906 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 1: I couldn't. I could not. She was hilarious while making 907 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,640 Speaker 1: a cow, But I just I have no desire. I 908 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 1: just it's always something that's but on my bucket list 909 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 1: that I've never done. And I feel like it's very 910 00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:31,239 Speaker 1: easy to make a cabin and I just have not 911 00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:39,880 Speaker 1: done it. I mean, okay, well we'll tell Thomas. I 912 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 1: think I think I just want to try the milk, 913 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: like the fresh milk. I'm not even I don't even 914 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 1: like milk. I just want to, like, you know, the 915 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:51,080 Speaker 1: fruits of the labor. Okay, last last question taken away, 916 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 1: change the subject on the milk. Okay. Most likely to 917 00:46:54,719 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 1: be a groomsman in your wedding, let's go with uh 918 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:04,760 Speaker 1: Leroy Spencer, Casey Daniel.
