You know, a lot of 33 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: you have been talking about how you feel like you 34 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: haven't known him, a runner up that you just that 35 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: you know, only had one one on one, didn't have 36 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: a ton of screen time. So today you're gonna get 37 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: to know him better. So let's get Justin on the line. Justin, 38 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: I feel like you, Um, I've probably gotten a lot 39 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: of annoying comments the past week or two about like, oh, 40 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: it's obviously not Justin, like he has no chemistry, no 41 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: connection with Katie, and you kind of brush over that 42 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: in the live episode yesterday where you said there's a 43 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: lot of things that you didn't that the audience that 44 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: didn't get to see with you and Katie. So how 45 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: annoying has it been that you've been like this dark 46 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: horse that nobody really believes in. Yeah, I mean it's 47 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: it's one of those things where like when you're in 48 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: this environment and you know you're you're placed on a 49 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: show like this, like you have to have thick skin 50 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: or you're not going to survive, right, So I don't 51 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: really listen to the noise too much. It's impossible not 52 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: to see you to hear it, right, like it's everywhere. Um, 53 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: and it's I mean, it can be frustrating for sure, 54 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: but it's it's just one of those things where like 55 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: you literally like can't defend yourself or say anything. So 56 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: like I would just kind of like humorously like retweet 57 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: some of these funny memes and just kind of brush 58 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,519 Speaker 1: over it. But the whole time I'm just there, like, 59 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: you know, these people aren't in the house. They don't 60 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 1: know what's going on, you know, Um, they don't know 61 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: the relationship that I had with Katie. Um, And to me, 62 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: what matters more is what I know, Um, you know 63 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: happened and what I felt and what Katie knows happening 64 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: and what she felt, UM and everyone else I was watching, 65 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: um you know, they weren't there, you know, And it's 66 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: it's it's easy to kind of um look at like 67 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: a lack of screen time or kind of just like 68 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,839 Speaker 1: latch onto like what's funny and trending, and I get 69 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 1: it and it's cool, but you're not kind of just 70 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: sat back and and hopefully over time people can see 71 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: UM my personality and and realize, um, you know, I 72 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: was there for a reason. So the the interesting thing 73 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: Justin and I I saw last night, and I think 74 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: it is like the common joke and you've obviously seen 75 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: the memes and things like were you shocked at all 76 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: by still being there? And if not, then why were 77 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: you expecting to be there? What didn't we see in 78 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: your relationship that made you confident that you could be 79 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: there at the end. Yeah, no, no part of me 80 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: doubt that that I would be UM there through hometowns 81 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: um war. I did get a little skeptical. Was after 82 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: that after you know, as I said last night, after 83 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: Greg and Michael left, just kind of watching those relationships 84 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: unfold and seeing um, you know, how broken Katie was 85 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: over those Um. You know in that moment, I remember, 86 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,600 Speaker 1: you know, talking to the producers and saying, hey, guys 87 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: like I, you know, I'm a kind of torn because yeah, 88 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: I'm one step closer to to being with her. But 89 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: you know, anything that I've had in life, UM, you know, 90 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: I've worked for and it's it's such much more gratifying 91 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: when you feel like you've earned it right. And like 92 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: I told her, it would have meant that much horse 93 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: she handed me that rose, but I felt like I 94 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: was there by the fault. And so I guess to 95 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: answer your question, UM, what wasn't seeing You know, I 96 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: saw people kind of in fun of during my hometown's 97 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: UM one part where I said, you know, there's nothing 98 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: missing from our relationship. You know, there are there are 99 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: a lot of things that were cut out that I 100 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: was surprised, we're cut out. Um. You know, Katie and 101 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: I UM had a constant banter back and forth. We 102 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: we had a very similar sense to him. But we 103 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: were always laughing, you know, on camera off camera, UM, 104 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: keeping each other going, keeping our spirits high. Um. You know, 105 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: the physical connection was there, Um from my wedding date. 106 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: Everyone saw that the dry part, you know, where I 107 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: had to like come up with these vows and like, yeah, 108 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: it's awkward, right, Um. But there was a whole second 109 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: part after that where we had like a honeymoon suite 110 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: portion of the day where we can kind of just 111 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: be fun and goofy and UM also explore like you 112 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: know that physical side, which which um, we had a 113 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: strong connection and that's fact as well. UM. And then 114 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: you know we also were able to which didn't come 115 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: into later in our relationship. UM, We're able to be 116 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: serious and have important, meaningful conversations with each other. UM, 117 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: some of which were aired, as you saw during the 118 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: Nights of My Hometown with Katie shared you know, something 119 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: very important with her family. But you know I also 120 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: shared things about my family that that weren't aired. So 121 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: we had that trust in that connection as well. Yesterday 122 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: during a live show, you said that you felt like 123 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: like you didn't get enough time. You're kind of like 124 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: cheated out of time with her. What were you referring 125 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: to in that moment, like you didn't get a full 126 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 1: enough chance?

But I was curious. You know, let's say 135 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: the roles were reversed, order was switched and I had 136 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: gone for Blake. You know, what could that whole day, 137 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: potentially night done for us? You know, then where she 138 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: could have had you know, Blake for the whole day, 139 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: the whole night, and then kind of you know, see 140 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: where each relationship was after that, because you know, one 141 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: of the things I asked her in that moment was, hey, 142 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: I totally respect that, you know, and I thank you. Um. 143 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: One question I have is, you know, was there any 144 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: because my hometown was just a few days before that, 145 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: and I said, you know, was there any point throughout 146 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: this journey where you started to realize, Okay, I'm gravitating 147 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: towards Blake And she said, no, it literally was not, 148 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: And she told me it was not until that prior night. 149 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: That night before, she said, I'll been til this morning. 150 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: I wanted to go throughout this day with you. She said, 151 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: it wasn't until last night where I had that moment 152 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: of clarity and I knew, I can see how that 153 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: lingers are you? Yeah, so that you know, And again 154 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: I'm the type of guy I'm like, just you know, 155 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: shoot it to me straight and be honest, and I 156 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: can live with that. I can take that right. And 157 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: if she had said, you know, yeah, at a certain point, 158 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: you know, I've leaning towards you know, these relationships, and 159 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: it's like, okay, cool, I see how I wouldn't have 160 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: our relationship wasn't, you know, as strong as it you 161 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: know needed to be. But you know, just when I 162 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: hear that it wasn't until the night before, it just 163 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: leaves you thinking, okay, well, you know, if if I 164 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: went first, you know, could we have gone? And I'll 165 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: never know, Um, but That's where I was coming from. 166 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: We we obviously saw you pretty torn up, uh last night, 167 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: and uh it makes sense to why but what what 168 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: about when you're sitting in that moment with her on 169 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: the couch. Uh, why did those emotions run deep, especially 170 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: after kind of seeing how her Blake and Katie's relationship 171 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: had progressed. Yes, Um, it's tough because, um, you know, 172 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: when you watch everything back, it's just you know, you 173 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: literally go back to that moment in time, like when 174 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: the steps of the gazebo, and I'm like, I know 175 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: exactly how I was feeling, like um about the whole situation, right, 176 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: And I'm the type of guy where I don't really 177 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: put myself out there for too many people, and I 178 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: know how much of myself I poured into this and um, 179 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: you know, like I said, to just relive that moment 180 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: of it coming to that screeching halt. Um, it was tough, 181 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: you know because and I'm not and I don't regret 182 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: a single thing. You know, if I could do it 183 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: all over again, I would do the exact same way. 184 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: But it's just, you know, it sucks, you know, giving 185 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: so much of yourself and to not, um the end 186 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: to that, you know, end up the way you wanted to. 187 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: It's it's a tough pill to swallow, so you wanted 188 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: We obviously watched, and it's not that interesting here to 189 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: talk about other relationshs. We watched the difficulty when you 190 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: pick out a ring, if that would have been you. 191 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: You were confident that Katie was somebody that you wanted 192 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: to spend your life with. I told I told her, 193 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: I told, you know, production the whole way, I said, 194 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: I can see myself and I know people talk about 195 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: how a short amount of time in the real world 196 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: it is, but you guys know how expected this isn't 197 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: how um, how much the time means and how quickly 198 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: things can kind of elevate feelings wise right, and coming 199 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: off that hometown, I knew where I was with Kate, 200 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: and I said, Okay, we have the same level, if 201 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: not more of a fantasy suite date night where I 202 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: can you know, ask some questions that off camber that 203 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: I need, you know, um And I said, yeah, you 204 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 1: know we can. We can get there. In my eyes 205 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: right now, looking back and seeing her other relationships, you know, yeah, 206 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: I'm not naive like there's there's probably there's no chance 207 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: right like she she was, she was further along with 208 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: some of those relationships. So you know, everything happens for 209 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: a reason, and things ended the way they were supposed to. 210 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: So I can live with that. Your parents have been 211 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: together for thirty years, but they didn't quite believe that 212 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: you could get there as quickly as you feel like 213 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 1: you can get there. While on the show, UM, did 214 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: it hurt to not have their support when it came 215 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: down to hometowns? And did they have any regrets for 216 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: not showing up for you? Yes, so I'm glad you asked. 217 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: So I do want to clarify m one thing. I 218 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: have to extremely loving, caring and supportive parents. And I 219 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: think it's so easy again for people you know, who 220 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: are just watching to lose sight fact um of one, 221 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: we're in the middle of a pandemic. Not one wants 222 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: to fly to New Mexico, um, and to have to 223 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: quarantine for over a week and take awful work. Not 224 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: everyone is able to do that, and that's my parents 225 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: and my brother, UM. And not everyone is comfortable being 226 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: televized on national television, you know. Um. So these are 227 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: all important factors to consider. And you know, people can 228 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: say what they want about me, and that's one thing, 229 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: but you know, it doesn't upset me to to hear 230 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: people who don't know me or my family jump to 231 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: conclusions about their lack of support. You know, one thing 232 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: that I've always appreciated about my parents is um, their 233 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: honesty and they'll always give me their honest opinion, UM, 234 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 1: and that tough love, and that's exactly what it was. 235 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: You know. They're not going to sugarcoat anything. They're gonna 236 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: speak their mind and tell me exactly how they feel. 237 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 1: And that's real and that's the realness, and that's where 238 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: I get it from. Um, And I wouldn't want it 239 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: any other way. And to be honest, I didn't expect 240 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: them to That's exactly what I expected, you know, from them. Um. 241 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: But I know my parents, and if that's if things 242 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: had worked out where I was with Katie, you know, 243 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: I told her, you know that their lack of showing 244 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: up was not reflective of their disapproval for her or 245 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: anything like that. You know. I wanted to make that 246 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: clear to her. And if I brought her back to Baltimore, 247 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: I'm sure they would have saw everything that I saw 248 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: in her and they would have supported it. Just in 249 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 1: one question. We'rena take a break here in just a second, 250 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: take a Brie there and come back. But one question 251 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: before we do, to kind of lighten up the mood 252 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: and switch gears for just a second. Your facial expressions 253 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: did you know you had them? Did you know they 254 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: were so amazing. Uh, and did you know that they 255 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: would become the talk of everything. You were my favorite 256 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: character for multiple reasons. You're a good dude, but also 257 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: because I just liked watching you, uh and then laughing 258 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: at everything that your face was saying. Yeah alright, So 259 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 1: first question, I was aware that I was expressive growing up. 260 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: I've always been told like, oh my god, you have 261 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 1: such an expressive face. You know, you wear your expressions 262 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,439 Speaker 1: on your face, and I'm just I never thought anything 263 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 1: of it.

How close were you 296 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: to him in the house and were you surprised at 297 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: what went down? Yeah? Greg, Greg is one of my 298 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: absolute best friends, not only in the house but outside 299 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: of um the house that like in the real world, 300 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: like we're still that's one of my best friends. Um, 301 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: and so I was extremely surprised. Um and shocker. I 302 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: can't hide it, you know. When Caitlin told us, I'm like, what, 303 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: like say it again? Like, because you know, you try 304 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: your best not to think about the other relationships, but 305 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: I mean you see the day cards get passed out, 306 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: the one on ones, There's there's no secret that everyone 307 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: saw Greg kind of a front runner, right, Um, and 308 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: to see to see it in that way, it was 309 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: just totally totally unexpected. Yeah, I mean how did how 310 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: do you interpret what happened? Because it's like fifty fifty 311 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: amongst like the Bachelor Nation audience. I did a pull. 312 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: It was like, do you think this is a reaction 313 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: from past trauma or do you think this is him 314 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: gas letting and trying to get a situation by turning 315 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: it on its head basically and like blaming her for 316 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: like what he's feeling. How how what do you think 317 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: happened in his head? Yeah? I've you know, I've tried 318 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: to look at it from both lenses. Um, and you know, 319 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: just knowing the type of guy that Greg is, UM, 320 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: He's he's a really good dude, and he is a 321 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: passionate guy. And I think that he was so invested 322 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: in that relationship. And and I can't blame it, quite honestly, 323 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 1: Like if I were Greg, and I poured my heart 324 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: out like that and received essentially nothing. When I'm at 325 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: a point where I'm considering getting down on one knee, 326 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 1: I'd be questioning a whole hell of a lot as well. 327 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: And knowing myself, you know, and how I've reacted to 328 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: things in the past that haven't been the greatest. You know, 329 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: I can't say that I, you know, would have you know, 330 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 1: there's no script to this where people don't A lot 331 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: of people don't realize. You know. You you act off 332 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: of emotion, You act in the moment and something and 333 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 1: sometimes you say and do things that you may regret. Right, 334 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: And I think the combination of not getting the validation 335 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 1: that he may have been looking for, coupled with yeah, 336 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 1: maybe not being fully healed from the trauma of the 337 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: passing of his dad, right, and and kind of apparently 338 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 1: with the high intensity and stress of this environment may 339 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: have caused him to handle things in a way that 340 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 1: I'm sure he would look back and say, Okay, I 341 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: could have done that differently. On the flip side, I'm 342 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: sure Katie also looks at you know, a lot of 343 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: how this has gone down, you know, not only that 344 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: situation in terms of you know, I'm sure she would 345 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: have given him a little bit more there, right, But 346 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: then also um, last night after the final rose, I'm 347 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: sure there's a lot of things that they would both 348 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 1: do differently, um to have a conversation and not kind 349 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: of turn it into this um, this yelling match that 350 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: you know that that it unfortunately turned into. Emotions were 351 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 1: high last night. It was one of the it was 352 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: actually one of the hardest segments I've ever watched from 353 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: this show, just like feeling like we always talked about it, 354 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: just in there. There's moments on the show where you 355 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: feel like you shouldn't be there in the room, like 356 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: I'm not I should not be invited in this and 357 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,239 Speaker 1: the last night I feel like that, like they had 358 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: a lot to hash out and there's a lot of 359 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: passion behind that conversation, a lot of hurt and a 360 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: lot of pain. And it's interesting because your conversation with 361 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 1: Katie went so just was so much different. And I 362 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: know we could highlight some of the reasons why, but 363 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 1: what about the conversation with Greg, Like why was that 364 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 1: one so heated and yours felt so calm and collected 365 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: and like oh almost just it was healing, but it 366 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: was like almost just more emotional. Yeah, well, I UM, 367 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: you know obviously cannot speak for Greg or Katie in 368 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: terms of the level of emotion um. And I guess 369 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 1: you know, animosity or whatever you wanna call it that 370 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: they may have had towards each other. With the manner 371 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: in which things ended, I think you know, it all 372 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: stems back from from how it ended on the show, right. 373 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 1: You know, the conversation between Katie and I um ended 374 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,679 Speaker 1: in a calm manner. Right, So you look at a 375 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 1: fr are close. Your conversation, whatever you wanna call it, 376 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: was also calm. You look at the way things worth 377 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 1: her and Greg ended on the show not calm, and 378 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: then a fr also not calm. And I think you know, 379 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 1: when you leave the show and you don't, we don't 380 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: talk to Katie, right, so they haven't had a chance 381 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: to kind of talk off the record and hash things out, 382 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: and you know kind of there's no game planning how 383 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 1: you want to go into it. You know, you kind 384 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: of as much as you think you've left the emotion 385 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: that you had, you know, back in in Albuquerque. You know, 386 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 1: you know, when you're on the internet, you know you're 387 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,959 Speaker 1: watching episodes play back and you know your backstage, all 388 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: those same emotions come back, and I think that's what 389 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 1: led to what we saw last night. Unfortunately. Do you 390 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,719 Speaker 1: think it's fair for me to say that what Greg 391 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: really wanted Katie to do and the only thing that 392 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: was going to satisfy him in that moment was to say, Okay, 393 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna leave with you, like you're the one. I'm 394 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 1: going to end this right now for you. I don't 395 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: think he wanted her. I mean, anyone who goes in 396 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: the show kind of knows how how it is, right like, 397 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,679 Speaker 1: but he seemed angry at the fact that she was 398 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: playing the bachelorette role last night. Yeah, I think he's 399 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: coming from a point where he's upset, like he doesn't 400 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: want to here. When you when you were that late 401 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:05,120 Speaker 1: in this process and you're considering marrying somebody, you don't 402 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: want to hear somebody tell your mother he has a 403 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: rose next week. He's number one on my list. You know, 404 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: you don't. It's not about where you rank with other guys. 405 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 1: It's like, okay, like do you see a future of 406 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: me or not? And hear what I'm telling you about 407 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: how I feel about you and give me something. And 408 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people like, well, he got 409 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: the first impression rose. He got you know, validation every week, 410 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: and like again, it's it's easy for people who aren't 411 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: in that environment to understand that. But I know the 412 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: conversations that I needed to have with K two to 413 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: to feel confident enough to get down on one knee. 414 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 1: And if I were Greg and I spilled my heart 415 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: out like that and got nothing in return, I don't know. 416 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: I don't know how that would have changed my feelings. 417 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 1: I don't know. And um, you know, I'm not Greg, 418 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: so I can't validate or invalidate his feelings. Like I said, 419 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: I've I've looked at it from both lenses, and I 420 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 1: can see the right and wrong on both sides. Um, 421 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: I think, like I said, I think there's things that 422 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 1: they both you know, wish they could have done differently. 423 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: So to be able to get down on one knee, 424 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 1: you had to have some conversations. And so if we 425 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 1: were just if we were just directly asked you. By 426 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: the way, side note, Jessica watched her very first episode 427 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: last night of this season, and your last outfit, the 428 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 1: white shirt with the like sweater coat. She loved it, 429 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: so you should know that. But again, you gotta let 430 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: go when you abody get done. Yeah, that's hey, that 431 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: is that is a strategy at least that started you 432 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: a few years ago. Um. Well, just so I'm gonna 433 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: ask you then, Um, after all this has played out, 434 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 1: you sit here today, You've had some time to think, 435 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: You've had some time to heal. If I would ask 436 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: you right now, do you believe that you were ready 437 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: to propose to Katie? Do you believe that you would 438 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: have done it? What would your answer be in that? 439 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: Are you're asking me now? Are you asking after processing 440 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: through everything from from how you felt then to watching 441 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: everything played out, do you believe that would have one 442 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 1: been the right decision? And two? Were you ready for it? Then? 443 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 1: Was I ready? Was I ready for it? Then? Yes? 444 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: Would have been the right decision? Looking back now now 445 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: going off of that, you know, we see Blake two 446 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: kind of two things here. One, how would you feel 447 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: if you were Blake and a week or not even 448 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 1: a week feel like Jay two days earlier your fiance 449 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: said that somebody else was Number one. Mm hmm, okay, 450 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: good question. Um No, that's a very valid question. And 451 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: UM yeah, I think you know, I've heard tatious speak 452 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: on it. You know, in terms of watching everything back, Zack, 453 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: and I'm sure with any couple you know that ends 454 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: up in a propose, it it's hard to watch back 455 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: and see all the relationships. But this scenario specifically, I'm 456 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: sure it was very tough. I would imagine it was 457 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 1: tough for Blake to see, um because I know how 458 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: I felt watching everything back, you know, feeling like I 459 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: was potentially, you know, kind of just there by default. 460 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: I can't imagine seeing the same reaction um with Greg 461 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: and Michael and then ultimately being the one that ends 462 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: up with her, right Like, UM, I know I just 463 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: said a little moment ago this um, this ex but 464 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: the timeline is one that only people that go through 465 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: this experience can can relate to. But even that is seems, 466 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: you know, like a very expedited timeline in terms of, um, 467 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: you know, potentially wanted to book the flight and go 468 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 1: home to then you know, um a few days later, um, 469 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: you know, confessing love again. Um, I'm not Blake, I'm 470 00:24:55,880 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 1: not Katie. Who am I too? You know, get my 471 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 1: standard approval or you know, get my you know, validation 472 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: for how quickly her feelings can change and where her 473 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: heart lies. Um. All I can go off of is 474 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: you know what she says and you know and what 475 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: we saw on TV and UM, and that's that. But 476 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 1: if I, if I was thinking, it would probably be 477 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 1: pretty tough to watch. I understand that. I understand the 478 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: different emotions. I understand stand obviously staying open to relationships 479 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: and having feelings from multiple people. I don't question that. 480 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: I think, Yeah, the big thing that maybe one day 481 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: when we talked to Katie the answer the question is like, hey, 482 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: you already go home, like you're already just to throw 483 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: in the towel and say I'm done with this whole thing. 484 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 1: And then a few days later, that's where things get 485 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: a little different. Where I can't necessarily relate from my 486 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,239 Speaker 1: experience is like I was never ready to give up, 487 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 1: if anything, I was overwhelmed by the uh enormous emotions 488 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 1: I was feeling and trying to decipher through that. So 489 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: that is an interesting question and an interesting point. Now 490 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: for as much as actually I can relate with your experience, 491 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 1: there's moments and there's things about this season that we 492 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 1: can't relate with. Right, we had a whole different host. Uh. 493 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 1: And you had two mentors on your season, uh, Kaylin 494 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 1: and Taitia. What was that like? How would you explain 495 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 1: their kind of interaction with the men. Did they come 496 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: in and check on you? Did you have a close 497 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: relationship with them? You know, I know with Chris when 498 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 1: he was a part of the show, the contestants, at 499 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: least when we got down to the final few, we 500 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: got fairly close. You check it on as mentor us 501 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: talk to us. Did you have that with Kaitlin and Tasia. Yeah, 502 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: they would come in UM and talk to us. UM. 503 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 1: You know, they were always there, UM willing to you know, 504 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: have conversations with us, kind of you know, one off 505 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: in a group setting, you know, feel any questions, you know, 506 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: whatever it may be. The bulk of their time UM 507 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: was obviously spent with with Katie UM. And I think 508 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: you know, even you know, watching it back, I think 509 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: that they have a perspective UM that is very unique 510 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: and valued um for the show that they were obviously 511 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 1: able to offer Katie. You know, Um, I don't know 512 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 1: anything about Chris, you know, but I don't sort have 513 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: been able to navigate the whole sitting on the bathroom 514 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: floor conversation with Katie, you know. So you look at 515 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: moments like that and you see how how they were 516 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: able to add so much value to this, um to 517 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 1: this season. And I'm sure they'll do the same thing 518 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: with Michelle and whatever is beyond UM. But I've had 519 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: nothing but fantastic interactions with both Caitlin and Tasha. They've 520 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: always been extremely kind and supportive, um and there, so 521 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 1: I've got nothing but great things to say about them. 522 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 1: I thinky did a fantastic job. And even post you know, 523 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: post show, um, you know, they've they've checked in with me, 524 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 1: you know, we we've talked and UM, so it's not 525 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: just like a you know, from what I've seen is 526 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:59,199 Speaker 1: you know, they're not they weren't there and you know, 527 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: just as oas and then you know that's it. You know, 528 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: I still have you know, somewhat of a relationship with 529 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 1: him after the show, which which I didn't expect, which 530 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 1: but has been incredible and I appreciate them for so 531 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: One of my issues with last night was that, like 532 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: we were coming off the low of Greg, then she 533 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: recovers and like falls in love, you know, it expresses 534 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,199 Speaker 1: her love for Blake, and it feels like a happily 535 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: ever after, But then they bring us low again with 536 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: like twenty minutes of concentrating on Blake. Blake's hesitance towards proposing, 537 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: and then when it got to the proposal to me, 538 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: it felt like he was so hesitant. Um, it almost 539 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: felt like he was just giving into the pressure and 540 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 1: it wasn't necessarily what he wanted to do. What was 541 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 1: your take on Blake's um decision to propose? Um? Yeah, 542 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 1: I um, I mean Blake, you know, I will say, 543 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: you know, from the second Blake came in, it did 544 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: feel like his objective, you know, was to you know, 545 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: make it to the end and and you know, proposed 546 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: to Katie. You know, he's very close with Brendan from 547 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: the House and and Brendan you know, because you know, 548 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: some some of the guys are of course skeptical, you know, 549 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: Blake coming halfway through. UM and Brendan, you know, it 550 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: was kind of the guy to reassure everyone, you know, 551 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 1: even back home. He's um. You know you always talked 552 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: Tyler with Katie. You know they knew each other, Yeah, 553 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,719 Speaker 1: they Yeah, they grew up together, so they knew each other. 554 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: Did help Brendon get on the show? I don't know. 555 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: I don't know about that, UM, but I think he 556 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: didn't know Brendan was gonna was gonna go on. And UM. 557 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: It's weird, right because I think about my friends and 558 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: like in the real world, like if one of my 559 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: friends pulled up on me when I'm trying to day 560 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: to grow up, you know, like you know, UM, but 561 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: I guess it's you know, I mean I asked, I 562 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: asked Blake UM early on, just you know, how the curiosity, 563 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: you know, I you know, I love Brendan, you know, 564 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: and I know he wouldn't vouch for Blake and and 565 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: Blake's a good guy. UM. And you know, one of 566 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: the questions I had was, UM, you know, if you 567 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: were that interested just out of curiosity, why not trying 568 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: to to date her, you know in real life? And 569 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: you know why I come on the show and Katie 570 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: had actually come in. I think they showed it. She 571 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: came in and told us, you know, when she was 572 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 1: decided to keep Blake, she said that, you know, he 573 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: DMed her after her season just to kind of congratulate 574 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: or whatever, and she said she wasn't interested in him, um, 575 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,719 Speaker 1: you know whatsoever. But you know he ended up being 576 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: there and we know how all votes. But uh, you 577 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: know that's your question. I um, yeah, I mean I 578 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: I think that was Blake subjective from the jump to 579 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: to propose. I think it's a scary moment for anyone. 580 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: You know, I've I've never experienced that. But if I 581 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: feel like, even if I were dating somebody for five 582 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 1: years now, is picking out rings like I'd probably you know, 583 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: come pretty closely to myself, just like you know, this 584 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: is like, you know, this is it's a it's a 585 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 1: it's a huge moment in your life, you know, like 586 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: you are about to get down on one knee and 587 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 1: ask someone to marry you and spend the rest of 588 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:18,479 Speaker 1: your life with them. It's a scary moment. Um, So 589 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: I can't blame him for coming off as as nervous 590 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 1: or hesitant. Yeah, you know, it's not something you're just 591 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: kind of doing a whim and say, oh, like, let's 592 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 1: just do it and see what happens. You know that 593 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: at least that's not how I would approach it. It's 594 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: a big moment. He seemed really nervous. It seemed like 595 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: a lot was going through his head. And I was, 596 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: you know, and watching Nashally's right, like watching the show 597 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: last night.

Um justin just found a 640 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: couple of questions for you here.

I don't know. You know, I've been asked, 654 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: and this is my my honest answer. I really don't know, UM, 655 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 1: because I can see obviously as as tough as it 656 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 1: was for me as a contestant to go through this 657 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: whole process, you know, I can only imagine how hard 658 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: I saw how hard it was for Katie to go 659 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: through this, you know, and and um, you know, I 660 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 1: I empathize with her, um and and a lot of 661 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: the things she had to overcome, and I always committed 662 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: her strength for it. But like that is a that's 663 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: a tough role to play. I mean, you know, it's 664 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 1: it's it's not easy, right, and there's a lot of pressure, 665 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: there's a lot of expectations, and you know, something that 666 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: I've had to come to grips with even going through 667 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 1: this is like you can't make everybody happy and that's okay, 668 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: Like not everyone's gonna love you, um, people are always 669 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: going to find something um to pick up. But it's 670 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 1: just like for me, I don't know if that is 671 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: you know, I don't I don't know if that's if 672 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: that's the best thing for me. I don't know. UM, 673 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 1: I think I need to kind of sit and process 674 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 1: everything that is transpired, you know, and if that is 675 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 1: an opportunity that was presented to me, I feel like 676 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: it's one that I truly wouldn't even start to really 677 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 1: truly you dig into considering unless it was actually offered 678 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,319 Speaker 1: to me. I wouldn't be opposed to it. But it's 679 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,800 Speaker 1: not something I'm like, oh my god, I hope to 680 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 1: call me. You know, I'm not waiting. I'm not sitting 681 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: by my phone waiting for that call. Um, so we'll see. Um, 682 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: I'm assuming well, actually I should not assume anything. Did 683 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 1: they ask you to do Paradise? Yeah? And now I'm 684 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: assuming that you weren't ready to do it because the 685 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: turnaround would have been extremely quick for you, and like 686 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 1: the emotional over like a couple of days literally literally 687 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: like I wouldn't have even unpacked my suitcase without quick 688 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 1: to turn like it was. It was nuts. Um, it 689 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,400 Speaker 1: was way too quick of a turnaround for me. And 690 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: I mean I'm not the type of guy, like I'm 691 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 1: not trying to waste anybody's time. And you know, I 692 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: told them like if I go to that beach, like 693 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: like I'm not ready to with everything that I just 694 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: a couple of things, right, like with everything that I 695 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: just kind of poured out, and all the time and 696 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 1: effort that I devoted to my relationship with Katie, like 697 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: I can't turn around and do that for somebody else, 698 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:11,800 Speaker 1: um right way. And not only that, but you know, 699 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: I think one of the cool things about Paradise is 700 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 1: typically you know who the characters are, right Like, you 701 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: know who you're looking forward to seeing, you know what 702 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 1: most of the the people are about the girls, And I 703 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 1: don't know anything about me. You know, they may have 704 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,840 Speaker 1: seen my like ugly headshot, but like they don't know 705 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 1: my personality. They don't know anything about me, and I 706 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 1: just like I didn't have the energy to like start 707 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: from scratch and like kind of re explain who I 708 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 1: am when I'm about you know. So it was just 709 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: it was too quick and I wouldn't have been able 710 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 1: to give it, um my best effort. And I didn't 711 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 1: want a different version of my myself, you know, to 712 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 1: to be seen because I wasn't in the right headspace 713 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: to take on something like that. It looks wild. Paradise 714 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 1: is like Preview looked absolutely crazy. You're gonna have a 715 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 1: blast watching your buddies make fools of themselves because they do. 716 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: And I've been in that seat before and it's it's 717 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 1: one of the most fun viewing experiences of your life.

That is a fantastic question, Honestly, 770 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 1: I think, Um, for a couple of different reasons, I'd 771 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 1: say Brendan. Okay, I'd say I'd say Brendan for a 772 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: couple of reasons. Brendan. Uh, Brendan will definitely go to 773 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: war for any of us. Um. I don't know this 774 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 1: scenario that we would where this would be beneficial, but 775 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: I feel like Brendan has like the best immune system 776 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 1: out of the group. With just the toxicity that he 777 00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 1: puts in his body. So I feel like he's just 778 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: like ready for what he does. That mean he drinks 779 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: a lot?

Plus, he's a firefighter in training, 783 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: so that could be beneficial as well.

Well, now it's time for one of 851 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,919 Speaker 1: our favorite segments that has stayed with us for years 852 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 1: now and it just keeps on giving. It's time for 853 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 1: Bachelor headlines with our resident expert who knows all and 854 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 1: everything about life. It's Actuley like can Eddie Ashley. Here's 855 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:32,840 Speaker 1: the first headline, waiting for you to break it down. Uh. 856 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 1: Bachelor execs now think losing Chris Harrison was a mistake, 857 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: as ratings plummet without ex host despite racism scandal. This 858 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 1: according to Sun. Yes, this is from the Sun, and 859 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 1: it's um all because viewership has continued to drop to 860 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 1: a all time low with Katie season um she her 861 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 1: ratings and Nielsen ratings are just three point three to 862 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:09,240 Speaker 1: three point eight million people watching per episode. Last year's 863 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 1: run with Tasha and Claire average about five millions, So 864 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: as you can see, you don't do you a math 865 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:19,799 Speaker 1: expert that that is a big percentage drop And according 866 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 1: to a source an insider uh they claim that ABC 867 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:28,240 Speaker 1: is now concerned over losing more than a million viewers 868 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,760 Speaker 1: per week and that them thinking is due to letting 869 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 1: go of the former host. The quote says ABC execs 870 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 1: are beginning to think that losing Chris Harrison was a mistake. 871 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 1: They still do not condone his comments to Rachel whatsoever, 872 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 1: but some are panicking for the direction of the show. 873 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,439 Speaker 1: Ratings this season are at an all time loan. I'm 874 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:57,320 Speaker 1: not saying that's all due to Chris, but numbers don't lie. However, 875 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 1: the source clarified that producers do believe that Caitlin and 876 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:04,719 Speaker 1: Tasha are doing a good job as co host. Sure, well, 877 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:06,320 Speaker 1: some we talked about it was the risk, you know, 878 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,480 Speaker 1: when people are saying fire Chris Harrison. It's like, okay, 879 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 1: hey that you everybody has their opinion on that. But 880 00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 1: what is the repercussion is going to be when that happens? Um? 881 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 1: And who knows? We don't know where the Bachelor franchise 882 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:19,880 Speaker 1: goes from here, but they're starting to talk about it. 883 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 1: It's a big headline. Um. I don't think it's often 884 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,360 Speaker 1: that ABC admits that maybe they possibly made a mistake. 885 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 1: And I don't think they've done it publicly yet, so 886 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 1: who knows. But I would agree Tasha and Caitlin did 887 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 1: a great job. But but um, who knows what happens 888 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,840 Speaker 1: in the future. Well, well, look at the next headline. 889 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:42,720 Speaker 1: Speaking of hosting. Uh, Jennifer Aniston, my celebrity crush, jokes 890 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:46,959 Speaker 1: that she would gladly host a Bachelor after Chris Harrison exit. Now, 891 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:50,920 Speaker 1: wait a second, Jennifer, don't joke that hard, because we're 892 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 1: gonna want to take you seriously. So, she was asked 893 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 1: on whether or not she, a super fan, would test 894 00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:02,160 Speaker 1: out her hosting skills and follow in Chris Harrison's footsteps. 895 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,480 Speaker 1: She says, God, I don't know. I think they need 896 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 1: a psychologist or a psychiatrists, not just Chris Harrison or 897 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 1: whoever is the host. Now there should be someone they 898 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:15,200 Speaker 1: can go and talk to. Um. And then she said 899 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,799 Speaker 1: when people were asking whether or not she she would 900 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: guide the contestants in their journey for love, she said, well, 901 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 1: and to help them, you know, talk through their issues. 902 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,799 Speaker 1: She said, Okay, well I'll do that gladly. I'll be 903 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:36,399 Speaker 1: the one picking roses in the rose garden. Okay, can 904 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:42,399 Speaker 1: that be a segments down in the rose garden picking flowers? Watch? 905 00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 1: That's hilarious. She said. The best version of the Bachelor 906 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,960 Speaker 1: is The Island Bachelor in Paradise. So, I mean that 907 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:51,319 Speaker 1: makes me feel pretty cool because that means she's she's 908 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,360 Speaker 1: watching me on TV. And that's just the weirdest and 909 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 1: coolest thing. And I know we've said this multiple times 910 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,880 Speaker 1: whenever Jennifer Anson comes up in a headline, but it 911 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 1: doesn't stop ever being cool. Well, and it's not unfathomable 912 00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: for her to maybe host a week on Paradise. I mean, 913 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: we saw it this year. It's kind of after the preview. 914 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,920 Speaker 1: We know at least Little John and David Spader there 915 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 1: along with Wells, and so they're bringing in the celebrity 916 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 1: hosts to kind of guest host a week. Why not 917 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 1: Jennifer Aniston? I don't. I mean, seriously, Jennifer, if you 918 00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 1: are serious, she listened to this podcast, So yeah, Jennifer, 919 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:32,040 Speaker 1: come on make the call. Uh. Well, as we mentioned 920 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:35,200 Speaker 1: a little bit ago, Uh, congratulations to Katie and Blake 921 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 1: on their engagement and what seems to be they're very 922 00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 1: happy and it feels like they've obviously been through a lot, 923 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 1: but it feels like it's made them stronger as a couple. 924 00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,440 Speaker 1: Where where this headline relates to their relationships? Says Katie 925 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 1: Thurston and Blake Moyne's move on from wild couple of 926 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:54,080 Speaker 1: months as Bachelor Nation reacts to her engagement and fight 927 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 1: with Greg. Wait, when was Blake's birthday? Because apparently she 928 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,720 Speaker 1: took the Instagram to say happy effing birthday, honey bear. 929 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 1: What a wild couple of months it has been. I 930 00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 1: couldn't have done this without you. I'm so ready to 931 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 1: leave these bubbles and start living our life. When she 932 00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 1: means bubble, she means like the Bachelor bubble and like 933 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:15,239 Speaker 1: the fact that they've only been able to see each 934 00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:19,400 Speaker 1: other in secluded locations. Um, but yeah, it's thirty first 935 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 1: birthday was holy crap, like the same day as a finale. 936 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,600 Speaker 1: Who wouldn't Wow, what a day? What a day for 937 00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:29,800 Speaker 1: Katie and Blake. So she couldn't ask for a better partner, 938 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 1: says you are kind, patient, understanding, and your advocacy for 939 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 1: the planet and animals is remarkable. I'm so lucky to 940 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:40,279 Speaker 1: call you my fiance, my best friend, my confidante. We 941 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:44,120 Speaker 1: are just two weirdos laughing our way through life together. 942 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:49,439 Speaker 1: And then um, Caitlins and the comments love you guys 943 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 1: both so much. You two have always Um, you guys 944 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 1: have always been meant to be such a strong couple 945 00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:03,040 Speaker 1: and can't wait to see you guys thrive together. Um wow, 946 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,480 Speaker 1: what a day for them yesterday. That's cool. It's a 947 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:08,320 Speaker 1: big day with a lot happening. And obviously the Greg 948 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:13,359 Speaker 1: scenario did at times feel like it overshadowed the engagement. Uh. 949 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,480 Speaker 1: And because Greg was a big character on this season, well, 950 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: we have a couple of different opinions here which are 951 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 1: interesting to break down. Caitlin Bristow, for one, the mentor 952 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:23,240 Speaker 1: of this season, UH doesn't like the way that Greg 953 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:29,240 Speaker 1: treated Uh Katie. But then we have former Bachelorette contestants 954 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 1: and uh a fellow Bachelor contestant, Connor Brennan kind of 955 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:37,239 Speaker 1: be as we know him. He defended Greg Grippo on 956 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:40,719 Speaker 1: Twitter last night. Uh so we have two different things 957 00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:43,920 Speaker 1: going on here, Ashley, Uh, two different opinions. What are 958 00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 1: the headlines saying? Okay? So Caitlin took to Instagram and 959 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 1: said that she's actually watched that episode where Katie and 960 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 1: Greg break up three times. She said she just had 961 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:58,040 Speaker 1: to digest her thoughts on it. She goes from being 962 00:52:58,040 --> 00:52:59,959 Speaker 1: on the bathroom floor, I was just thinking he poured 963 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:03,160 Speaker 1: his heart out and she didn't respond. Well. Now watching back, 964 00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:07,840 Speaker 1: I didn't like how he treated her. Connor defends Greg. 965 00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 1: He says on Twitter relationships are nuanced, to break ups 966 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:15,799 Speaker 1: are nuances. Sometimes there's not a good guy or a 967 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:21,319 Speaker 1: bad guy. Sometimes cameras and tweets can't act, can't accurately 968 00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 1: captured the complexity of real life. Kindness is free, Love 969 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 1: is complicated. Next headline is a big one. Great Grippa 970 00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: was spotted with brief Springs in New York City this 971 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,400 Speaker 1: last week, which people started rumoring about and talking about. 972 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:40,439 Speaker 1: But now we know, thanks to our friend Justin, that 973 00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 1: she's actually in a relationship. Yeah, so the headline reads 974 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:49,959 Speaker 1: the Bachelor's Brief Springs confirms her relationship status after hanging 975 00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 1: out with Great Grippo, but like definitely doesn't really like 976 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,879 Speaker 1: clarify much, except because she just posted an Instagram story 977 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,759 Speaker 1: of her of herself holding hands with the man and 978 00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 1: apparently this man clearly isn't Greg and she says current 979 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 1: relationship status. Um. But she says she's gonna keep his 980 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 1: identity quiet for now. Um. And she's also not going 981 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 1: to talk about how long they've been dating. But she's 982 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 1: been spotted with this mystery man before, um, when he 983 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:22,359 Speaker 1: appeared to be her date to a wedding earlier this year. 984 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 1: So that is that could have been a big storyline, 985 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:27,919 Speaker 1: one that I felt like we're gonna be talking about 986 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:29,400 Speaker 1: for a while, But now it just kind of feels 987 00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:31,000 Speaker 1: like it went away. Like their friends they hung out. 988 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 1: Who knows why or what they were doing, but um, 989 00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 1: you know, she seems happy, she's public about it. Lots 990 00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 1: of you know, bachelor lums. We hang out because we're 991 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:45,080 Speaker 1: able to relate over stuff that some that most people 992 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 1: can't understand. Definitely, well, uh, as we move away from 993 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 1: Katie season, not too quickly. I've got to celebrate her 994 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 1: and Blake and will continue to update you on everything 995 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 1: going on in their life. Is is that relationship continues. 996 00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:00,719 Speaker 1: We are moving into a new season a Paradise and 997 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 1: also an upcoming season that's being filmed right now of 998 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:07,799 Speaker 1: Michelle Young season which people have been excited about. And 999 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:10,960 Speaker 1: the Bachelorette creator, Mike Flice, you've probably heard his name 1000 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:13,600 Speaker 1: used once or twice before, offers behind the scenes look 1001 00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:17,680 Speaker 1: at Michelle Young's upcoming season. This according to people, Okay, well, guys, 1002 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:20,360 Speaker 1: it's not really a huge behind the scenes look. He 1003 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,279 Speaker 1: posted a picture of her in a gym with some basketballs, 1004 00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:26,840 Speaker 1: so it looks like they'll be playing basketball on a 1005 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:29,879 Speaker 1: group game or something. Um. I think he's just kind 1006 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:34,640 Speaker 1: of signaling that the season is beginning. Uh. And Katie 1007 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:38,680 Speaker 1: has given her advice to Michelle. She said, I've spoken 1008 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:40,719 Speaker 1: to Michelle as much as I can because I know 1009 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:42,839 Speaker 1: it's any day now that they're going to take our 1010 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:44,640 Speaker 1: phone away. I think the biggest advice that I can 1011 00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:46,480 Speaker 1: give to her is just be open. Don't close yourself 1012 00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:49,520 Speaker 1: off too early. I think guys can surprise you weeks 1013 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:53,960 Speaker 1: later when you don't expect it beautiful, just beautiful. It is. 1014 00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 1: We're excited for that season. We have a lot of 1015 00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 1: things look forward to, uh, including Paradise, and we're gonna 1016 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,920 Speaker 1: jump down to one Paradise headline here The Bachelor in 1017 00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:06,040 Speaker 1: Paradise sneak peak promises, drama, send departures, and well a 1018 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:08,600 Speaker 1: lot of Little John and David's bait. What happened to 1019 00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:12,480 Speaker 1: Lance Bass? Lance is still there? Lance is there? What 1020 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:16,759 Speaker 1: about Titus Burgess? Do they come in later? I don't 1021 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:20,880 Speaker 1: know they're going to be there. They're all gonna be there, um, 1022 00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:28,360 Speaker 1: but the preview, of course, it's messy, it's chaotic, uh. 1023 00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 1: And there's a lot of people who are known for 1024 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 1: their drama, and they're like Tammy and Victoria Larsen, she's 1025 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 1: there too. But Guys, I think the biggest the thing 1026 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:43,680 Speaker 1: that left me lingering in my heart, the thing that 1027 00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 1: I saw that I just like, I'm like so nervous for, 1028 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,640 Speaker 1: is that now we can confirm that Kendall does show 1029 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:54,719 Speaker 1: up and she she does talk to Joe about why 1030 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 1: they're both there, and I just feel like this is 1031 00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:00,880 Speaker 1: heartbreak on the brink. I mean, yes, they've been broken 1032 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:03,960 Speaker 1: up for a year and a half. But it just 1033 00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 1: seems like there's still some hurt that will come up this. Yeah, 1034 00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 1: it looks sad, it looked hard, it looked heavy, And 1035 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 1: we've been around him actually when they were dating, and 1036 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 1: it was a real relationship that I know they cared 1037 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:18,720 Speaker 1: a lot for each other. So just be interesting to 1038 00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:21,120 Speaker 1: watch that go down, and hopefully they both find somebody 1039 00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:23,480 Speaker 1: incredible in Paradise. That would be awesome and also a 1040 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,560 Speaker 1: little weird to be dating. You're dating somebody in front 1041 00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:28,240 Speaker 1: of the person used to love and care about. I 1042 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know if I love that idea 1043 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 1: really really hard, kind of like Blake dating Katie in 1044 00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:36,959 Speaker 1: front of Tasha pretty much pretty much, that is weird, 1045 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 1: I guess. But like you know, Tasia is very much taken, 1046 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 1: and Blake it doesn't seem interested. And then this is 1047 00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 1: a little different because neither one of them go into 1048 00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:48,400 Speaker 1: this taken. I'm just really worried about this because I 1049 00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:49,640 Speaker 1: feel like I'm going to have like a lot of 1050 00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 1: like second hand, I'm just gonna like the memories. It's 1051 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,280 Speaker 1: just gonna really hurt. Okay anyway, But then we also 1052 00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:59,440 Speaker 1: get confirmation that beget Kuferin is down there so is 1053 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 1: Tea and Demi. So those are three big Bachelor names 1054 00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,160 Speaker 1: that we haven't been able to confirm until like that 1055 00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:10,200 Speaker 1: teaser and the fact that this week, um ABC put 1056 00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 1: out an oppress release that Beca Koufrin is going to 1057 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:17,080 Speaker 1: be in paradise. UM, what's our next headline? Ben the 1058 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:21,600 Speaker 1: Bachelor ets Andrew Spencer addresses past insensitive tweets. I'm a 1059 00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 1: different person now. Actually this is from people. It continues 1060 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:28,760 Speaker 1: to pop up in Bachelor Nation where people are kind 1061 00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:32,920 Speaker 1: of old tweets or things are revealed. Uh, kind of started. Uh, 1062 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 1: I don't know a few years ago. I remember even 1063 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:41,200 Speaker 1: with Lee that guy. But Andrew Spencer's addressing him. Yeah, 1064 00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,480 Speaker 1: I don't know what the tweets said, um, but they 1065 00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:47,120 Speaker 1: have been called insensitive. He says, I'm super sad and 1066 00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:50,040 Speaker 1: embarrassed that those tweets came up. Definitely not the person 1067 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,920 Speaker 1: who I am today. I was young, childish and immature, 1068 00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:57,439 Speaker 1: and that's exactly what those tweets were. Super immature. I've 1069 00:58:57,480 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 1: lived overseas the last three years. Obviously, I've seen different things, 1070 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:03,840 Speaker 1: and I've been around different cultures and people. So I'm 1071 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 1: a different person completely, And you know, I just want 1072 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,840 Speaker 1: to make sure everyone knows that in my heart, I 1073 00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 1: don't I don't ever really go out and try to 1074 00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:16,400 Speaker 1: make someone feel bad. I've grown so much and I've 1075 00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 1: always been super positive. They're apparently they contain offensive language 1076 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:27,520 Speaker 1: and they are misogynistic. A few more headlines here Tyler 1077 00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 1: Cameron just after recently admitting his absolute love for his 1078 00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 1: girlfriend Camilla Uh. They've split after eight months of dating, 1079 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 1: and the headline reads their friends are surprised. This according 1080 00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:41,840 Speaker 1: to us, I'm surprised too, because I saw him like 1081 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: a week and a half ago on Watch What Happens 1082 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 1: with Andy Cohen and she was sitting next to mat 1083 00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,720 Speaker 1: in the audience, and he called her out as his girlfriend. 1084 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:54,160 Speaker 1: So like, I don't know, I wonder if like something 1085 00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 1: there was like one big fight or something happened. I'm 1086 00:59:56,320 --> 01:00:00,439 Speaker 1: not here, I am speculating, but apparently the a Sore 1087 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:03,440 Speaker 1: says to us Weekly things were going well until they weren't, 1088 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,520 Speaker 1: so maybe I was right. Um. Friends were surprised that 1089 01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:11,640 Speaker 1: things ended so quickly. Um, and that's that's about all 1090 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 1: we got. But they did unfollow each other on Instagram 1091 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 1: and she stopped keeping up with his brother on social 1092 01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:25,960 Speaker 1: media as well, and yeah, it comes after two weeks, 1093 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:28,800 Speaker 1: two weeks after he declared his love for her on 1094 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,919 Speaker 1: Watch What Happens Live. Big headline there. Well a couple 1095 01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:37,040 Speaker 1: more relationship headlines. One is when to celebrate Vanessa Grimaldi 1096 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:42,560 Speaker 1: is celebrating her bachelor at party. Uh and uh it's 1097 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:44,400 Speaker 1: something special. It looks like a lot of fun. Yeah, 1098 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:48,000 Speaker 1: it looks like a blast um, she says, what a night. 1099 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,200 Speaker 1: It was the best bachelor atte party with the most loving, 1100 01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:53,600 Speaker 1: kind and generous group of women. I'm so lucky to 1101 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:56,160 Speaker 1: call friends. This is what life's about, surrounding yourself with 1102 01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:59,840 Speaker 1: people who fuel your heart and soul. And I'm still smiling. 1103 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,880 Speaker 1: So they don't give us the date to her and 1104 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:05,920 Speaker 1: her fiancee's wedding, but I'm assuming it's coming up within 1105 01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:08,520 Speaker 1: the next couple of months. It is something to celebrate. 1106 01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:12,960 Speaker 1: Vanessa is one of the great ones. Well. Also Cassie 1107 01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:17,760 Speaker 1: Randolf finally I guess, but also makes her relationship public 1108 01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 1: with Brighton Reinhardt. Uh.
