I didn't know how 18 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: much I didn't know about women until really this podcast, 19 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: being engaged to Jessica and and just being more curious 20 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: about the ins and outs of a woman's life. As 21 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: shows up to the podcast, and her face is like 22 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 1: red and it has like skin falling off of it. 23 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: I've never seen this before, Ashley, for myself and our listeners, 24 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: can you educate me on what is going on? Okay, well, 25 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 1: I'll use this time to shout out Olga Lawrence and 26 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: she's like my skincare go to. She has really been 27 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: the woman in charge of halle Berry's skin for like 28 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 1: the past twenty years. So like if yeah, if there's 29 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: somebody listen to, it's oga. So I have done two 30 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: vampire facials to get rid of my melasma over the 31 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: past a couple of months, and they just really they 32 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: weren't as effective as I would like them to have been. 33 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: So it's a vampire facial. I'm going to interrupt you 34 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: because you've got to help me out here. I don't 35 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: know if you ever saw those pictures of Kim Kardashian 36 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: where she had like blood on her face. So basically, 37 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: it's a little needle and it's it kind of it's 38 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: like a think of electronic pen with needles on it, 39 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: and they like inject your blood into that needle thing 40 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: that pen, and then they like stab your face all 41 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 1: over and it's like collagen producing and it makes you 42 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: like flake off. That first layer of skin because that 43 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 1: wasn't as effective with my really bad melasma. It's just 44 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: like I never had it until like a year and 45 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: a half ago, and then all of a sudden, I 46 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: was like, why do I have a mustache that's just 47 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: not of hair, It's just not a hair. And then 48 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: it gets worse than the sun. It's people who are 49 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: like all of toned. They are more susceptible to it. Um, yeah, 50 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: exactly exactly. And I so I'm doing now the gold standards, 51 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,519 Speaker 1: So the vampire face will takes like three days to 52 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: recover from this. What I have on my face now, 53 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: the cosmolon peel is definitely something we have to hide 54 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: a little bit more. You actually have to keep a 55 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: face mask on for ten hours. So on Saturday I 56 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 1: didn't do anything and I kept like, yeah, it's easy now. Um, 57 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: but this whole thing is great because it's easy now. 58 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: So now I'm read and pealey at least for the 59 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: next four days, and I'll probably not be back to 60 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: my regular skin for like another month or so. But 61 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: when I'm done before and afters if they are accurate 62 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: and they're all over the internet, I might not have 63 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: malasma at all. Anymore. And if you guys don't know 64 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: what malasmas, it's it's pigmentation. It's darker pigmentation spots around 65 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: your face. And with women, especially when it's formon related, 66 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,839 Speaker 1: it often goes in that mustache area. Yeah. So, um, 67 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: I texted your fiance about it. I told her what 68 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: a perfect time it is for you know, to do this, 69 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: because of the mask and being able to stay home 70 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: and all that he goes. Um, I said, I can 71 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: tell you who my asgetation is. And she just said 72 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: it to you, and she faced time to the instructions 73 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: she goes. That would be amazing. I love that it's 74 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: at home even better. So your fiance is gonna look 75 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: like this before you know it. But then she's gonna 76 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: feel so confident about not having to wear foundation all 77 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: the time to cover up those brown spots. Well, here's 78 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: the thing. What happens when you fall in love. I'm 79 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 1: learning this right. I find Jessica Clark to be like 80 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: the most beautiful human ever created. I do, but I 81 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: am now also realizing how much I just love her 82 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: in general, and so like, I know that sounds really corny, 83 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: and but like she could have like what I know 84 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: my reaction to her would be very similar to just 85 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: being like, wow, Hunt, this is really interesting, Like I 86 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: don't hate it. I get why, but like now I'm 87 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: just more intrigued. Like it's not even there's like nothing 88 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: she could do really that be like a turn off. 89 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: I feel like like a complete turn off. It would 90 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: just be more of like a curiosity of like, so 91 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: you did this so your face can just like flake off. 92 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: I don't get it. I respect it. And to close 93 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 1: this thought, you made a comment that I'm super intrigued 94 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: by because Melasma was an insecurity of Jessica's for a 95 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: long time, and even when she's first started dating me, 96 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: she was like, Yeah, I have this like dark thing 97 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: above my lip and it's weird and I know it's 98 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: like but it's like nothing I can do about it, 99 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: you know, like she would try to explain it to me. 100 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: I get it. It's not ideal. But you're saying that 101 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: like Melasma could be gone for like a period of 102 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: time forever. Well, I mean this will significantly subside it, 103 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: um and then you're gonna have to use other products 104 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: that will keep it at bay. Wow. Wow to just 105 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: absolutely incredible experience, but just a wildly, wildly. There's just 106 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: so many things that you do that I respect, love, 107 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: and also yeah, it's wild.

I can't understate how big of a deal 146 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: this is to me, um And I want to give 147 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: a little backstory for the almost famous podcast because this 148 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: is the first time I'll be really talking about it. Um. 149 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: But two years ago, I and and we've talked about 150 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: a lot in the podcast, like I just I don't 151 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: know if I struggle, I just uh have always I 152 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: fall quickly if I'm in a bad place, I fall 153 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: quickly into self doubt. I fall quickly into feeling isolated 154 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: and disconnected. Um And then you know, I have this 155 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: show happened a few years ago where I admit that 156 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: I feel inlovable and that felt like like I've like 157 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: my buddies still joked with me about that, and uh 158 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: and I've kind of joked about it too, because it 159 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: was a huge moment for me on The Bachelor Ette. 160 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: But it didn't feel like it. It felt like just 161 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: like a passing by conversation that Kaitlin I had that 162 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: you know, you see on the show a lot and 163 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 1: you don't know the depth of it. But when I 164 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: said that, it was the first time in my life 165 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 1: on the show, I had actually admitted something that was 166 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,599 Speaker 1: true to myself that was like vulnerable and hard to 167 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: admit that, like I truly didn't feel like I was 168 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: worthy of love or I didn't feel like I would 169 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 1: find somebody that would say, Hey, you're the person for 170 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: me for the rest of my life. And and then 171 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: I realized that that even went deeper, Like it rolled 172 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: into my friendships, like why would my friends like my 173 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: Why would my friends be really friends with me? Like 174 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 1: what do I offer them? What? Why would they want 175 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: to spend their time and share their life with me? 176 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: It rolled into my relationship with God and my relationship 177 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: um with myself. So anyways, two years ago I started 178 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: on a project to write a book about all of 179 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: this um.

Like we we talked about the show all 257 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 1: the time on this podcast, and there's just not a 258 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: lot hidden anymore in my journey of the Bachelor world. 259 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: And if there is, then I hope to be able 260 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: to think of those things and say on this podcast 261 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: and share those experiences. Um And So when I write this, 262 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: it was you know, it does go into like my 263 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 1: relationships from the show, like, um, there is a section 264 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: on Lauren and there and and Laura and I were 265 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: able to talk about that and I got her approval 266 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 1: on that, um and because you know, she's been a 267 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: huge part of my life and in a great part 268 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: in many in many ways. But there there isn't the 269 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: juicy details of the show, but there is hopefully honesty 270 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,839 Speaker 1: about the show and honestly about the experience that maybe 271 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: isn't known or maybe would be relatable.

Um, We're not gonna make 294 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: you wait to the end of the episode for this one. 295 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: We're gonna start right now with the Cassie Randolph in 296 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: Colton Underwood situation. Again, this is a sensitive topic. We 297 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: We have had massive amounts of updates and news come in. 298 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: Cassie's UM restraining order was granted, uh a little bit 299 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: less than a week ago. UM, and now the text 300 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: messages have been released. So Ashley, what do we know 301 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: about this and where do we stand? Okay, Well, last 302 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: week we went over the fact that he apparently put 303 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: a tracker on her car, that he was in the 304 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: alley outside her bedroom at her parents around two am. UM, 305 00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:03,479 Speaker 1: that he was also kind of lurking about her apartment 306 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, and um, then there are also some 307 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: texts that were released that apparently he was sending her 308 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: text at all hours of the day. UM. At one 309 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: point he said quote Cassie, referring to Cassie is a 310 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: selfish person who isn't ready to be loved and called 311 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: her shady. He later apologized saying that he was lost. UM. 312 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: And since you know, sources have said sources with the 313 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: quote around them, and in my opinion, uh, that's that 314 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: Cassie was doing this, is doing this for attention, that 315 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: they were in the midst of filming a reality show 316 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: about their breakup. Um it involved Colton, Cassie, and her 317 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: entire family. So Michelle Randolph got to posting on Instagram 318 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: this week saying that her parents never signed anything whatever 319 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: part of any type of show. Um, this is Colton's 320 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 1: attempt to make Cassie look bad at the press. She 321 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 1: also says that she and her boyfriend have not filmed 322 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: or signed any contracts about this supposed show. Um, seems 323 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 1: like it was probably like a sizzle reel maybe, um 324 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 1: it says Orel you guys, is like a proof of concept. 325 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: It's like a mini episode basically of a proposed show idea. 326 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: And I've heard I'm not sure where I heard it from, 327 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: but that it was going to be about them dealing 328 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: with their breakup or like continuing to be friends after 329 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: their breakup, and all these sources are and muld also 330 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: be like honest, like just what's what I'm thinking? Like, 331 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: I just really trust Cassie. UM, I think that she 332 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: is the kind of person that would never seek attention 333 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: like this. I really don't think that she cares like 334 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: she wants to be a speech prothologist. She probably likes 335 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 1: the you know, additional income that her bachelor fame brings her. 336 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: But she is not the kind of person that is 337 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:10,160 Speaker 1: ever going to go and do something for attention, especially 338 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 1: getting a restraining order for no reparent reason on her 339 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: ex boyfriend. Well, and we talked about it before, and 340 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,479 Speaker 1: I know the listeners out there, you know, Colton had 341 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: a great following, a big following, and uh, listeners out 342 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: there probably right now are hearing this and going, wait, 343 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: why aren't you being more supportive of Colton? And I 344 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: want to I want to preface all this and say 345 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 1: that we aren't not supportive of Colton. There actually has 346 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 1: spoken out many times against cancel culture. We're not saying 347 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 1: canceled Colton. We're not saying not cancel at all. We're 348 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: not saying, hey, forget about Colton. But what we need 349 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,959 Speaker 1: to report is that the restraining order was granted. And 350 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 1: that's that's a legal process that goes far beyond a 351 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: show or fame or anything like. If if a restraining 352 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: order is granted, I think we all need to take 353 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 1: a step back and realize, hey, there were there was 354 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: a proven amount of facts there that made a judge, 355 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 1: an impartial judge, say this needed to be put in place, 356 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: like this was a good decision for Cassie to do. 357 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: Now at the end of all this, I know Ashley 358 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 1: I talked offline about it, like, we want both parties 359 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: to heal, to recover, to come back from this in 360 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: some way, right. We don't want either of them to 361 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: just disappear and to be hated on. That's not the point. 362 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: That this is far bigger than the attention they could 363 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,239 Speaker 1: get from a show or from a from fame. And 364 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: I know the Colton supporters out there are gonna go 365 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: holy cow, like you guys like you, you know you 366 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 1: don't know the fact, Like, no, we don't know all 367 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: the facts, but a judge does. And what we need 368 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: to say here is, hey, what Cassie did, the judge said, 369 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: okay to what Colton did was obviously out of place 370 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: and was wrong. It doesn't mean that he needs to 371 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: be forgotten or pushed aside. It doesn't mean that people 372 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: need to hate him. What it does mean, though, and 373 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 1: I for all of us, and I will go on 374 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: my soapbox here and I know somebody out there is 375 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 1: gonna been stopped talking. I'm gonna say this. What it 376 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,880 Speaker 1: does mean, though, is that in this time we need 377 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: to be sensitive to Cassie. We also need to be 378 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 1: sensitive to the Colton. But we need to understand that 379 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: there was wrongs here that happened, and we need to 380 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: accept that. We need to accept that there was wrongs 381 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: done in this process. And this is not a joking thing. 382 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: This is a big deal. This is this is not 383 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: a small matter. This is this is something that has 384 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: obviously changed their lives, both of their lives, UM. And 385 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: we hope that Colton can come out of this humbled, UM, educated, 386 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 1: a better person. We also hope casting come out of 387 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: this feeling safe, UM, feeling protected, feeling cared for and 388 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: loved on. UM. But with all this being said, listeners 389 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: and Colton fans, you have to realize where we're at now, 390 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 1: which was not where out a week ago. We're at 391 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: a place where this is going to court, and and 392 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 1: that means it's like facts now, not alleged rumors, yes, 393 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 1: or allegend alleged allegations. Do not pret don't cancel him, 394 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: don't cancel him, don't hate on him. In times of 395 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: great despair and of great need, we need healing and 396 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: we need love, and both of these people need that 397 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: right now, So don't cancel Colton, but recognize that that 398 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: there was a problem. Yeah, and Ben, how would you 399 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: feel if Colton just came out, was super honest and said, like, look, 400 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 1: I was hurting. Um, I was in a very sad, 401 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: depressed place, wanting my girlfriend back, missing my ex girlfriend 402 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: and somebody who was my first serious relationship. Um, and 403 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: I went a little overboard, like I crossed the line. Um. 404 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: And I hope people accept my apology on this and 405 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: that I'll learn from it. Right, how would you feel 406 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: if you did that? I mean, it's the hand of 407 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 1: brown thing, right, Like I like Hannah. I love Hannah. 408 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 1: She's she's a fun person to watch. But for weeks 409 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: we were sitting here on this podcast going handa, we 410 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: just need you to talk, like say something so that 411 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 1: like we can then come about this in educated way. 412 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: But when there's nothing being said, we sit here assuming 413 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 1: things and reading things and hearing things and we don't 414 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,360 Speaker 1: know what to do with it. It's the same thing 415 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 1: here with Colton is Colton, Um, he's not untouchable. Uh, 416 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: he messed up, and I think at some point whenever 417 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: he's ready, just like Hannah wait until she was ready 418 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: and it's his timeline, it's Cassie's timeline, then it would 419 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: be nice to hear him come out and and and 420 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: I mean it looks like right now, what we need 421 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: for definitely Cassie's sake is probably a public apology saying 422 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 1: he was wrong. But hey, and I and I don't 423 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: know how far he went with this, Like I don't 424 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: know how scared she was, and I don't know all 425 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: the behind the scenes. What I do know is love 426 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 1: does crazy things to you. And and I what I 427 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: do know is love can change you as a person overnight. Um, 428 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: And so if Colton came out and said, hey, I 429 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: went too far. I made big and terrible mistakes, but 430 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 1: I did it because I was broken, my response to 431 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: him would be I get it. Yes, you were wrong, 432 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: I get it, And now what now? What are we 433 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 1: gonna do about it? Right? I feel like people are 434 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: more apt to forgive when people are being honest than 435 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: like forgive him if he were to just keep denying 436 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: that these like, if he keeps denying them, I think 437 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a worse. Look, that's what I mean. Well, 438 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: and you know, with you know, we can blame we 439 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: can all blame everybody else for our problems. We can 440 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 1: blame you know, it's a common thing on the show. 441 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,360 Speaker 1: Come off the show. Blame producers if you if it's 442 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,679 Speaker 1: not what you wanted to, come off the show. Blame 443 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: the cast, Blame other people. Uh, blame if we're in relationships, 444 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: blame your ex. Is all these things, right, but at 445 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: some point we all I mean, and I'm learning this 446 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: right now, Like we all have to own up to 447 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: our issues. And you know this as somebody who's married, right, Like, 448 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: in a marriage, you can't just blame your spouse the 449 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,400 Speaker 1: old time. That's not going to go well for you now, 450 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,199 Speaker 1: Like you have to start taking ownership for your mutual 451 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: mistakes and the things that you've done. That we're at 452 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: a hand out of line no matter how big of 453 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: a deal they are. And this is a big deal, um, 454 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:23,919 Speaker 1: and we're wishing the best for both of them, but 455 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: we're really sensitive here to Cassie and the fact that 456 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: she's walking through something, um that is obviously not ideal. 457 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: Well Hey, speaking of Yeah, Peter Webber, who are who 458 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: I really do love deeply and he was a great guy. 459 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: But I don't know where this comes from. Actually, I 460 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 1: need you to teach me. Peter Webber implies he's going 461 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 1: to spill Bachelor t when his n d A is up. This, 462 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: according to Cosmopolitan, well, to be honest, man, I can't 463 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 1: believe that the Bachelor hasn't extended their n DA times 464 00:24:55,640 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 1: have that option? Right? Right? Is our contract? Like do 465 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 1: we have to be secretive about certain things for the 466 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 1: rest of our lives? And there are certain things that 467 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: we can start talking about or are we like free 468 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: free will for total free will on Bachelor production after 469 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: our contract dents? Do you know this? It's a little sticky. 470 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: So yeah, exactly, if you use the Bachelor name and 471 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: you associate whatever you're saying and doing with the Bachelor, 472 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: then you need their approval for perpetuity, like they have 473 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,959 Speaker 1: your rights to air your season, to use that for 474 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: as long as this show exists, and even after now 475 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 1: when it comes to the tea and whatever to kind 476 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 1: of tea that is, it gets sticky, Like it's not 477 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: it's not a clear cut thing for any of us. 478 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 1: But there have been so many Bachelor tell alls, and 479 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: the tell alls do give you some good dirt, and 480 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: it looks like Peter might be doing a tell all. 481 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: So Cosmo wrote this article. I think that they're like 482 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: stretching here. They said that under an instagram of Peter's 483 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: he talks about he writes comments towards the fans. You know, 484 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 1: he asks them and says, I'll explain myself one day. 485 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: He also said happy y'all are to um somebody. So 486 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 1: somebody said, happy you all are together, But I wasted 487 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 1: my time on this season. This fan means I shouldn't 488 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: have watched your season. I wasted my time on it 489 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: because like you didn't end up with you ended up 490 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: with the girl that you've met before the season. And 491 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: that's when he said I'll explain myself one day. And 492 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: then he also said in the comments, there's just so 493 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: much no one knows about it yet, so it'll be 494 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: good to get it out there. And then he also 495 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: said to a fan that his n d A is 496 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: over on March. And from these comments Cosmo fans, they're 497 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: speculating that there's they're speculating that he's going to eat 498 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: for podcast out or a book out or something like 499 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: that that will explain why he and Kelly never got 500 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 1: together on the show. Um Kelly did did an it's 501 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: the story this week kind of going off of this, 502 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: she said, somebody said in her questions on Instagram, why 503 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: didn't Peter picky the first time? We all knew it 504 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: was fate? And I do feel like they're they're coupling 505 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: was very fate. Like I mean, they met before the show, 506 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: they definitely hit it off. There's just was something there 507 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: I always felt. But she says as her answer, Peter 508 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: was told flash thought I didn't like him and I 509 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: was only there to have fun. That's kind of what 510 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: her storyline was on the show, that she was, uh, 511 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 1: you know that she wasn't all in on Peter the 512 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: guy because she wasn't like sure she really was getting 513 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 1: to know him or and then she felt like the 514 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: show was just not a place or her to find love, 515 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,120 Speaker 1: and that everybody was saying like, oh, Kelly doesn't even 516 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 1: be taking this seriously. She's only here about fun, Like 517 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: this is kind of stuff we've already known. Um So, yeah, 518 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: we'll see if there's more depth to this mystery of 519 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,919 Speaker 1: why Kelly and Peter didn't end up on the show together. 520 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 1: On March fIF two, possibly, do you think it's a 521 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: smart idea if he does a tell on this, I mean, 522 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: it matters in what form you can do a podcast 523 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 1: and start talking about the show, which has obviously been 524 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 1: a great thing for you and I. I would never 525 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: tell anybody not to do it. I think it's a 526 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: great thing you and I enjoy doing it obviously. Uh, 527 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: there's been others that keV came about and been very 528 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: successful talking about the show and breaking down every episode, 529 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: and I would support anybody to do that does that. 530 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: If that's his format, great, it's a book again, I mean, 531 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: on a day that my book gets released, I'm gonna say, 532 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: write a book like it's therapeutic. It's hard, it's difficult, 533 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: you have to really start confronting your own things. Uh. 534 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 1: And if it's a tell all form, I'm I'm I'm 535 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: sure he's gonna be reliving memories from the show that 536 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: he's probably forgotten or tried to forget, and he'll be 537 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: writing him down, which could be therapeutic. Um. I don't know. 538 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: I don't know what has not been shown in his 539 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: season though. That's the part that I'm gonna be shocked by, 540 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: because I felt like his season showed more of the 541 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,479 Speaker 1: behind the scenes than any season ever. I Mean, we 542 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: had like parental um issues, we had, we had massive 543 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: I mean I can't even still to this day, remember 544 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: how the triangle of love had existed like it was 545 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: Hannah and to then Maddie for like a few moments, 546 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: and then now to Kelly and now he's super happy 547 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: with Kelly. If if Peter Gold means it's been what 548 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: what should I do? I say, Hey, do what you 549 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: gotta do. But this has all worked out pretty good 550 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: for you, Like people love you, people are still celebrating you. 551 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: You've got a great girl. Now this this is all 552 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: played out now, maybe not how you dreamed it would be, 553 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: and it wasn't like perfectly like perfect, like there were 554 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: issues involved, but it's now it's a good thing for you. 555 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: And I would just be cautious anytime anybody wants to 556 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: take a good thing and make it bad. Totally agree. Yeah, 557 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: I mean I can't. Okay, if there was a girl 558 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: on your season and let's just pretend the producers were like, Ben, 559 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: she's just here to have fun, blah blah blah, would 560 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: you really listen to the producers that much? But but 561 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: also with all that being said, and if Peter came 562 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: on the podcast, now I know he would tell you 563 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: like he he did I mean one of his biggest 564 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: things was he he couldn't get a grasp of what 565 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: was going on in that environment the time. I mean 566 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: it was, it was the whole thing, the whole season 567 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: was Peter, put your foot down, stop the chaos, stop 568 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: the gossip, stop the controversy, like say something like, you know, 569 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: lead this thing forward a little bit, and it was. 570 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: It was the one thing as a bachelor like that. 571 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: People Well, we'll criticize him for the most but the 572 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: other part about Peter that people will celebrate is the 573 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: guy super lovable. He really wanted to find love. He 574 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: was really in the pursuit of love on this show. 575 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: He did it. He did it to the best of 576 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: his ability, and he found it. So I don't know, 577 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 1: I guess I go back to this and we can 578 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: move forward with this. I don't know what else there 579 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: is to say. UM, So I'm intrigued. I'll be listening. 580 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: Um and you know, Peter Weber is going to spill 581 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: the tea at least that's what people think. Uh, once 582 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: his n DA is up and uh and at that 583 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: point in time, we'll break it down again. I mean, 584 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: I mean, there are stories like this, there's a lot 585 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: of stories like this from Bastmination. There's Molly Mesnick and 586 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: Jason Mesnick. Honestly, there's me and Jared. It's like we 587 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: we dated other people on the show, and you come 588 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: to you find the person you're meant to be with 589 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,719 Speaker 1: along the way. It doesn't mean that you don't have 590 00:31:55,800 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: feelings for other people. UM, it's really about timing, and 591 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 1: it's about like getting to know yourself and sometimes, like 592 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: in my case and like in Molly's case, you actually 593 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: need to be separated with the franchise for a while 594 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: in order for people to discover what they really want 595 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: and need. Well, that's everybody's love story, right, It's timing. 596 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: It's place you could fall from multiple people in your journey, 597 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: but at some point you end you know, all the 598 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 1: roads lead to that partner, that person that matches you best. UH. 599 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: And so we'll see we'll be watching speaking of UH 600 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: women for my season.

And like my buddy who has three kids now. Uh, 637 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: he and I used to kind of like hang out 638 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,839 Speaker 1: together when we were single and go out together. And 639 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: I recently saw him in Denver and there's a joy 640 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: to it that's like indescribable, and there's an energy that 641 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: comes to you as a parent. It feels like that 642 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: like I don't have right now. But then again, I 643 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 1: watched my buddy when I hung out with him with 644 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,760 Speaker 1: his three kids. His head is constantly on a swivel. 645 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 1: There's constantly something breaking. There is, yeah, diapers being changed, 646 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 1: there's kids disappearing like it. I left there and I said, 647 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: I still want kids. I'm still confident that get scared 648 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:20,439 Speaker 1: every time. Yeah, but like I'm scared, Like I love 649 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: having a meat clean house, and I feel like that's 650 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: one of the things that's not on the top of 651 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: my mind when we think about kids. But it's something 652 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:31,319 Speaker 1: I'm gonna miss so much. Oh, it's absolutely ridiculous. But 653 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: Kathery and Sean have always been good at highlighting their 654 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 1: family and talking about the the ins and outs of parenting. 655 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 1: It's it's just a great article to read if you 656 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 1: get a chance. Um. But Kathery and Sean wishing the 657 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: best and thanks for being honest. Yeah. Then I have 658 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 1: a question about kids for you. And I know this 659 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: is like a long time coming because you and Jess 660 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 1: aren't married yet, but you guys planned to move to Denver, right, 661 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: so that means that neither of your parents are going 662 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 1: to be there. Do you feel like having parents, a 663 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 1: set of the parents there the first kid, or maybe 664 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: even just always is something that you would want? Yeah, Um, 665 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: I I do. I mean I think that's something Jess 666 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 1: and I really want, is our family, Like both of 667 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: our sets of parents are so awesome. I mean, I 668 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,920 Speaker 1: really one of the coolest things about my relationship with Jessice. 669 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: I really love her parents and her family like deeply, 670 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: and she feels the same way about mine. I want 671 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: them involved because I just think they're good influences and 672 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 1: I think they're a good help and I think they 673 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 1: would help guide us in our most troubled times. And 674 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 1: here's maybe one of the biggest reasons selfishly, Jesse and 675 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: I have talked about this often, is we really want 676 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: to have kids but also still have a relationship, and 677 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: we want to go out on dates and we want 678 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: to explore together. And I think having a parent like 679 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: one of our parents they're really would help that and 680 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 1: actually add to the child's life. Like it wouldn't take 681 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,840 Speaker 1: away anything. It wouldn't make us less less or wouldn't 682 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,720 Speaker 1: make us parents who push our kids to the side. 683 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 1: It would just make them be able to experience their grandparents, 684 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: and I want that for them. I totally agree. You're right, 685 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 1: You're able to keep more of a relationship together when 686 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 1: you have your parents to lean on. Yes, so it 687 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: is important to us, um and uh, And it might 688 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 1: not be for everybody, but it is for us. Switching 689 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 1: gears quite a bit from relationships and parenting to now. 690 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: Rachel Lindsay details her first conversation with ex Peter Krauss 691 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: since The Bachelor. At this according to E News Online. Yeah, 692 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 1: so apparently back in June, it seems during the you know, 693 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 1: the beginning of the Black Lives Matter movement, he reached 694 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 1: out to her. He quote, he was asking me questions 695 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 1: about it and stuff for some advice about responses he 696 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 1: had gotten. Um, she said, we're adults here and we 697 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: can all move on. Yeah, so it's pretty simple. But 698 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 1: that's that. I mean, just yeah, I don't know what 699 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: to do with this, but it is interesting that they 700 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: spoke again, right, I mean what I look at like 701 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,399 Speaker 1: exactly I was gonna say, most of the leads end 702 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 1: up talking to or even being friends with their runner up, definitely, 703 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 1: because there's like that respect and that you obviously know 704 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 1: the person. You're like, Yeah, I like you, Like I 705 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: care about you a lot as a human like I obviously, 706 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 1: and so not shocking, um, you know, but it's a 707 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: big deal and and for me it's it was a 708 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: I remember our very first conversation and it was almost 709 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: like a weightlifted. I don't know if it was for her, 710 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 1: but for me it was just like, okay, good. Now 711 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: we'll probably see each other at events, will probably be 712 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 1: around each other more than you would be with a 713 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: typical X And it's great now that we can at 714 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: least come into it like as friends, with that mutual 715 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: respect and care for each other. And I'm sure Rachel 716 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: and Peter are gonna not be able to do the 717 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: same thing, which is which is really awesome. Um, speaking 718 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: of x IS and somebody I'm a friend with, Caitlin 719 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 1: Brusto just continues to keep the headlines Caitlin Bristow is 720 00:38:58,400 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: on Dance with the Stars. If you don't know that, 721 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,400 Speaker 1: well I don't know where, Well you don't listen to 722 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: the podcast, and you don't watch TV and all that. 723 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:09,240 Speaker 1: And and here's something really exciting about Caitlin. Lady she 724 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: she danced to a song by Lady Gaga, and Lady 725 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: Gaga actually retweeted this, so she saw it and she says, 726 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,319 Speaker 1: and I quote it made her cry. I know, Lady 727 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 1: Gaga said, isn't it weird? Is it weird that this 728 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: made me cry? I love watching people happy and dancing. 729 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 1: So Lady Gaga knows who Caitlin is, and if I 730 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: were Caitlin, I'd be like, Wow, that is maybe the 731 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 1: coolest moment of my life.

I'd 737 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 1: be telling my family, my friends, my grandma, like that 738 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,400 Speaker 1: would be wild. But good for Caitlin.

I 756 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 1: think it's Jovi j O v i E. Noel. Um 757 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 1: was not breathing when she was born, which has to 758 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:06,400 Speaker 1: be so scary as a parent. But um, as as 759 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 1: they go onto the article and talk about it was 760 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 1: a everything is good now. It was tough. It was 761 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:15,320 Speaker 1: one of those really scary moments. UM. But Jovi Noel 762 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 1: and UH the family are healthy and good and we 763 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 1: just want to say once again we talked about it 764 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 1: last week, but we just want to say once again 765 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 1: how thankful for we are for that. Uh and UH 766 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:28,720 Speaker 1: and that that is the headline of the article. So hey, Ashley, 767 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 1: you know, we we've talked for a while now, we've 768 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 1: talked through the season of COVID. UH. It's actually been 769 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: really good. I think for us in our podcast and 770 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 1: the and the listeners. We have a good we've had 771 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,279 Speaker 1: a good time with it, but we were soon approaching 772 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:46,400 Speaker 1: a season that we won't have to talk about headlines 773 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: and do interviews. We're actually gonna have a season to 774 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:54,720 Speaker 1: break down. More teasers are coming out Ashley this week 775 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: as we get one week closer to Claire season. What 776 00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 1: are you feeling and what are you thinking? I'm thinking, 777 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 1: how many great puns do they have with Claire's name? 778 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 1: You want clarity, you want to clarify what other ones 779 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 1: are there? Uh? You want to clear the air. I 780 00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 1: don't know so many great puns, so much pretty Claire. Um. 781 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 1: But they definitely are alluding to in these new spots 782 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,879 Speaker 1: that are getting that are airing during Dancing with the Stars, 783 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: that that we that there's some sort of announcement that 784 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 1: we are just dying to have that they haven't given 785 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 1: us yet, which would be well, I I mean, yes, 786 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 1: I think we're all assuming it's gonna be Taisha. But 787 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 1: the cool part is actually one of the things that 788 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 1: you and I are both worried about is if Claire 789 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:48,479 Speaker 1: left early for whatever reason, we're gonna miss the clear 790 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: moments that we're expecting we are, but we're gonna get it. 791 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 1: Like we've already seen in the teasers, she yells at 792 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:56,879 Speaker 1: a contestant get out of here, and then we see 793 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,360 Speaker 1: Chris Harrison doing it. Chris Harrison does best with sis, 794 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,879 Speaker 1: you know, say down with her having that relationship conversation. 795 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna get and I don't know if 796 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna get enough Claire. We're gonna get at least 797 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 1: some Claire still during this season. Oh, we're gonna get 798 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: quintessential Claire. But you're right, Ben, and I haven't quite 799 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: said it blatantly, but when I did hear that she, 800 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 1: you know, might have left the show early, I was like, Oh, 801 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:25,319 Speaker 1: I was really hoping for eleven weeks of Claire and 802 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,799 Speaker 1: I would love eleven weeks Septatia to you know, like 803 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 1: two separate Bachelor season Bachelorette seasons. But I was definitely 804 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,799 Speaker 1: looking forward to so much claireisms and we're only going 805 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: to get possibly a few weeks of them. So but 806 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:40,880 Speaker 1: you're right, I think she will deliver in the weeks 807 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 1: that she she has. Yeah, Claire, Claire will still be clear. 808 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 1: She doesn't change no matter how long or short she's 809 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:51,320 Speaker 1: there Ashley up. Next, we have one of Caitlin Bristow's 810 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: x is one of our good friends, Chris Strandberg on 811 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 1: the podcast, breaking down everything Caitlin and who knows what else. 812 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a dentist, so I'm sure we're gonna 813 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 1: talk about that, uh and possibly relationship he's been in 814 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,919 Speaker 1: for two years and been pretty quiet about. So let's 815 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:07,760 Speaker 1: take a break. We come back. We'll have Chris Stranburg 816 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 1: on the podcast. All right, guys, Chris Stranburg. It is 817 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 1: on the podcast for the first time since these guys 818 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: and I'm talking about you, and the producer has been 819 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 1: trying to set me up with him like four years ago. 820 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:37,359 Speaker 1: Oh man, good old days. Yes, you guys made me 821 00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 1: blush and Phil awkward at all times every episode. You 822 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,759 Speaker 1: wouldn't let it die anyway. Now, the last time I 823 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,840 Speaker 1: saw Chris, which is a very sad, sad fact, was 824 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:52,319 Speaker 1: at my wedding. Uh, Chris at my wedding. Something very 825 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: funny happened. Like if we had a reality if the 826 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: Bachelor came and taped our wedding, like this would be 827 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 1: a really funny focal point. You took yourself to the 828 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 1: hospital the day on my wedding. Can you explain this story? Well, 829 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm really tough, I'm good at all sports. Um, 830 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 1: and it's no surprise that I would get a concussion 831 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 1: playing touch football on the beach. Okay, this is good. 832 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: This is where we need to die. Wait a minute, 833 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: Wait a minute. Maybe somebody touched me really hard you think, no, No, 834 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:29,279 Speaker 1: nobody touched me. Nobody touched me. I just jumped for 835 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:34,480 Speaker 1: the ball and landed on my head. Like you were 836 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: very the guys, the guys didn't hide the fact that 837 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 1: you were very awkward at playing football. They're like, he 838 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:43,840 Speaker 1: said that he was going to be awkward, but we 839 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 1: didn't think it was going to be this bad. And 840 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: then you jumped, you hit the back of your head, 841 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:51,399 Speaker 1: and then you ended the game with that. Like they 842 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 1: all had to stop. They had to stop because suddenly 843 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 1: I didn't know how I got there. Literally, I lost 844 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: to the beach. For you memory twelve hours? Yeah, I 845 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 1: had to. I literally had to call my mom and 846 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,319 Speaker 1: I was like, his mom, So I'm fine, but how 847 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 1: did I get here? Can you walk me through the 848 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 1: last twelve hours? That's not a scary phone call from 849 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 1: my mom? Hey mom, Yeah, I'm fine, I just don't 850 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,319 Speaker 1: remember life. Wait, wait, now that I'm thinking about this, this 851 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,919 Speaker 1: this is the day of a rehearsal dinner. Tara didn't 852 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 1: play football all the day of our wedding. Yeah, okay, 853 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,239 Speaker 1: rehearsal then you were there. Yeah, We're on the beach 854 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:32,840 Speaker 1: in Newport, and um uh there is a pass thrown 855 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 1: to Chris, who jumps up in the air to grab it, 856 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 1: and it was actually I mean, for what Chris lacks 857 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:42,359 Speaker 1: in um catching ability, he makes up for in his 858 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 1: his jumping skills. He's a very good levitation, very he 859 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,240 Speaker 1: has a very good jump. So he jumps up. Well, 860 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:51,960 Speaker 1: he doesn't catch the ball, but what he does do 861 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 1: is he falls backwards onto his back and he hits 862 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 1: his head against the sand, which automatically, I guess knocked. 863 00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:03,800 Speaker 1: Chris is memory just completely gone. He starts wandering the beach. 864 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 1: The game ends because we no longer have even sides, 865 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 1: and Chris takes himself to the hospital, which came out fine, nothing, 866 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 1: nothing major. He was okay. He showed up to rehearsal 867 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 1: dinner that evening. He made the most. Memory came back. 868 00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 1: Memory came back. He remembers the love story that Ashley 869 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 1: and Jared portrayed to all of us. But I would say, 870 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:29,440 Speaker 1: I will say I've never seen somebody get so hurt 871 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:35,280 Speaker 1: in a touch football game. Never so one of my skills. 872 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:39,359 Speaker 1: You know, I'm extra fragile, and uh, I took that 873 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,799 Speaker 1: fall like a champ. Hey. I take a doctor over 874 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 1: an athlete any day, And I'm pretty sure most women 875 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:50,799 Speaker 1: out there would, including your girlfriend, including my girlfriend, who 876 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,720 Speaker 1: you've been with for how long? Two years? Wow? How's 877 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,879 Speaker 1: it going? It's going good. COVID hasn't got us down? 878 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,720 Speaker 1: Are you? How much time have you spent together during COVID? 879 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:06,759 Speaker 1: How much time did she and I spend together? Um? 880 00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 1: A good amount, but not all the time. Let's say 881 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 1: about half the week. That's pretty good. She's pretty busy 882 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 1: with her new jobs, so um yeah, and then our 883 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 1: schedules are a little bit off, but we make a 884 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 1: good amount of time. How has the dental intry industry, 885 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:24,239 Speaker 1: would you, diddle Field been affected by COVID? Because when 886 00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:27,120 Speaker 1: I think about going to get it cleaning now, I'm like, 887 00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 1: I feel pretty save a lot of places, But with 888 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 1: my mouth open like that, I could I feel pretty susceptible, 889 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 1: pretty vulnerable, it's the one place you're required not to 890 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:41,799 Speaker 1: wear a mask. Yeah, why can't can't can't wear a 891 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: mask over your mouth? That's a dentist. Oh. I felt 892 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:46,279 Speaker 1: like when you walked in like you couldn't have a 893 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: mask on though when you sit down in the Yeah, 894 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 1: that makes sense. The uh I mean, but you're you're 895 00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 1: you're staying upright. Things are okay right now, as we 896 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,839 Speaker 1: talked to Chris, he's in his scrubs and he has 897 00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:04,040 Speaker 1: a bonnet on his head. Uh. Yeah, Chris, we saw 898 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 1: recently you've been doing more and more kind of like 899 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 1: beauty tips and kind of you took over Amazon's um 900 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 1: Beauty Weak or whatever it was. I'm doing that on Friday, Yeah, 901 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 1: so we did an Amazon live There was a deal 902 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 1: of the day that water cad was some of their products, 903 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,879 Speaker 1: so I did a live stream with them. And now 904 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 1: there's a special beauty Day. So I guess you know 905 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,720 Speaker 1: your teeth are considered a beauty products. So a couple 906 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 1: of the water Pig products are going on sale and 907 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:35,520 Speaker 1: I'm hosting a live stream of that. But what are 908 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 1: some of the tips that you would give to? Like? Okay, 909 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 1: if for any of our listeners who are not, uh, 910 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:46,160 Speaker 1: beauty experts. Some of them probably are, but they just wonder, 911 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:47,880 Speaker 1: what are some of the secret tips that taken care 912 00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:49,960 Speaker 1: of your teeth. What are some of the tips that 913 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 1: you would give. Number One, you have to be consistent. Um. 914 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:58,800 Speaker 1: People will be on a good role with their teeth 915 00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: and then they'll kind of fall off. It happens when 916 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: people get stressed out. Things happen in life. Home care 917 00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 1: takes a you know, back seat. It feels like a 918 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 1: low priority. But staying consistent with is important. Um. But 919 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 1: you gotta clean between your teeth um, where stain develops. 920 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 1: Toothbrushes often can't even though you're brushing your teeth. The 921 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 1: stain develops in the creases of your teeth between right. 922 00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 1: Bad breath happens from bacteria collecting between your teeth and 923 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:27,200 Speaker 1: below your gun line. So you've got to clean those spaces. 924 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,480 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry that the toothbrush alone doesn't do that. 925 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 1: And you know, I tried for a few years working 926 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:35,920 Speaker 1: in dental practice, telling people the floss floss, floss floss, 927 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,520 Speaker 1: using string floss, and then even the people who are good, 928 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,280 Speaker 1: they're not doing it right because it's very technique sensitive. 929 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,279 Speaker 1: So finally, I'm just like, okay, what else is there? 930 00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: And you just take a jet stream of water and 931 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:51,799 Speaker 1: then you power washed between your teeth. It's kind of 932 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:55,400 Speaker 1: like simple, it makes sense, but it doesn't seem like, okay, 933 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 1: well is that effective. Well, you're breaking up the bacteria 934 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:00,840 Speaker 1: and you're getting in deep for than you could with 935 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,319 Speaker 1: the string, so you're really cleaning it out. But in 936 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 1: addition to that, with the string, you're kind of leaving 937 00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:08,560 Speaker 1: some of that debris in between your teeth, but with 938 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:12,359 Speaker 1: the water you rinse it away. So you know, they've 939 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 1: done tons of studies on this and every time it's 940 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:18,320 Speaker 1: like twice as effective as the other way a string floss. 941 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,759 Speaker 1: So I just I'm a big believer it. Do you 942 00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:25,319 Speaker 1: water pick before you brush, then I do. I think 943 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,600 Speaker 1: that's a great way to do it, because the reason 944 00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:31,240 Speaker 1: that we use fluoride and toothpastees is to repair the enamel. 945 00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 1: And if the in between surfaces of your teeth are 946 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 1: clean from having just water floss, then when you brush, 947 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 1: the fluoride will soak into your teeth and repair the 948 00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:43,520 Speaker 1: sides of your teeth. Here's my issue. I have one 949 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:46,360 Speaker 1: issue at this. So I had a water pick for 950 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:49,560 Speaker 1: a bit, and I pick my teeth as often as 951 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:53,880 Speaker 1: I could, But then my mirror is covered in water 952 00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 1: pellets and it's going everywhere, and it felt disgusting and 953 00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:59,799 Speaker 1: it was hitting my face and I couldn't keep the 954 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:03,239 Speaker 1: water inside of my mouth. It was flying everywhere. My 955 00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 1: techniques obviously failing. How do I do this better? So 956 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,879 Speaker 1: to two ways you can fix your problem. Number one, 957 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 1: they make a waterproof version that you can take in 958 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:20,480 Speaker 1: the shower. That sounds fun, rechargeable, it's really cool. Um 959 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:24,799 Speaker 1: My favorite one is the cordless Advance. But another thing 960 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:28,319 Speaker 1: is break up your mouth into small sections, so don't 961 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:30,840 Speaker 1: try to rinse your whole mouth out at a time 962 00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:34,400 Speaker 1: with the floss. You keep your hand like there's normally 963 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 1: like a power button or an on off switch, So 964 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,520 Speaker 1: close your lips around the tip and then just do 965 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 1: five teeth and then turn it off and spit and 966 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 1: then repeat and repeat, so you're only getting a little 967 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 1: bit of water in your mouth each time. If you 968 00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:49,200 Speaker 1: switch to that method rather than trying to do the 969 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 1: whole thing, you're like overwhelmed, like, oh my gosh, my 970 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,799 Speaker 1: mouth is filling up with water. Just break it up 971 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:56,759 Speaker 1: into little sections overnight it will change. You won't get 972 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 1: the mirror anymore. I won't get on your chin or 973 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:01,520 Speaker 1: your shirt. Huge. Well, I love the way that this 974 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 1: has become a beauty podcast where you're we're going to 975 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:11,000 Speaker 1: title this Bachelor beauty. And I have two questions in 976 00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 1: that realm for you. One whitening toothpaste. Um, I know 977 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 1: that a lot of dentists like, don't like don't they 978 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:22,960 Speaker 1: think that whitening toothpaste like strips the enamel? Yes, okay, 979 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:26,800 Speaker 1: So Jared did some research on what the best whitening 980 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,160 Speaker 1: toothpaste was and it's said on the internet that it 981 00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:31,720 Speaker 1: was Armine Hammer. So he got the arm and Hammer 982 00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 1: and I was like, this taste disgusting and how in 983 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 1: the world is this the number one for whitening Because 984 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:42,839 Speaker 1: the Crest and cold Gate they just brand the out 985 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,279 Speaker 1: of their whitening stuff, and I really believe it was 986 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,319 Speaker 1: like all their little like sparkles in the toothpaste. And 987 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:50,640 Speaker 1: then after a month or so, I'm like, holy crap, 988 00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 1: your teeth are almost whiter than mine. Now. It was 989 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 1: a significant improvement, more than I've ever seen. And Chris 990 00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:59,320 Speaker 1: is doing a little jig over there. Are you dancing 991 00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 1: at what I'm saying, I'm dancing. Do you like that? 992 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:06,120 Speaker 1: You like what happened here? So, the philosophy for whitening 993 00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: your teeth with the toothpaste two ways your teeth get yellow. 994 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,360 Speaker 1: There's the surface stain, the junk on top of your teeth, 995 00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:16,120 Speaker 1: and then there's the internal color of your teeth. The 996 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:19,920 Speaker 1: surface stain is minimized by keeping them, you know, keep it, 997 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:22,480 Speaker 1: keeping that film, that plaque, keeping them off your teeth. 998 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:26,280 Speaker 1: The other thing is bleaching the inside of your tooth, 999 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:28,359 Speaker 1: which is like all of those things that you see 1000 00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:32,040 Speaker 1: on TV or on Instagram. How do I bleach my teeth? 1001 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:37,120 Speaker 1: You use hydrogen peroxide. The certain other products that you 1002 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:43,239 Speaker 1: mentioned contain really abrasive um, little like almost sand. It's 1003 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:47,800 Speaker 1: hydrated silica, and that scratches your teeth surfaces to remove 1004 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 1: quote unquote like the surface stain. But hydrated silica is 1005 00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:56,880 Speaker 1: really damaging to enamel. So arm and hammer actually has 1006 00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 1: more um sodium bicarbonate, which is baking soda, and that's 1007 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:03,160 Speaker 1: what you taste, and it's the sodium. It's kind of 1008 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:07,440 Speaker 1: like this weird salty, grainy downside. I'm like, how you 1009 00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:11,600 Speaker 1: brush your teeth with this? Yeah? Well, My favorite formula 1010 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:13,880 Speaker 1: for taste and also for just for all around is 1011 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:17,440 Speaker 1: called Bright and Strong, and it's by armad Hammer. But 1012 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 1: the difference is that the baking soda is not abrasive 1013 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 1: to your enamel. Instead, it breaks up the plaque in 1014 00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 1: a different way, almost in a chemical way, so it's 1015 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:31,880 Speaker 1: not as abrasive. It sort of melts it away, but 1016 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:35,439 Speaker 1: that doesn't affect your enamel at all. So that's Number one, 1017 00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,239 Speaker 1: is that it removes the surface stains more gently and 1018 00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:42,839 Speaker 1: more effectively. Number Two, it contains hydrogen peroxide, so that 1019 00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:45,680 Speaker 1: day in day out you're doing this, it's soaking in 1020 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 1: deeper than the surface, and it's brightening up from the 1021 00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 1: inside right to know, thank you, I love this stuff. 1022 00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 1: Number Two, I noticed, and I've told you this a 1023 00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:58,960 Speaker 1: number of times, and I will bite the bullet one 1024 00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:02,280 Speaker 1: day that my teeth are really shifting on the bottom. 1025 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 1: And my question to you is, if you had braces 1026 00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:11,160 Speaker 1: as a kid, is it inevitable that your teeth will 1027 00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:16,759 Speaker 1: shift again? If you at all stop your retainer. It is, 1028 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 1: almost without exception, inevitable. And it's because there's a genetic 1029 00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:26,879 Speaker 1: adaptation where teeth are designed to shift forward. Because as 1030 00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:30,799 Speaker 1: we age, our teeth actually rub against each other and 1031 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:34,360 Speaker 1: they get smaller, so gaps would develop between our teeth 1032 00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:37,839 Speaker 1: unless they were shifting forward like everybody you know, stay 1033 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:41,879 Speaker 1: close in line. And then obviously ancient history people lost 1034 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:43,880 Speaker 1: their teeth a lot more frequently. If you have a 1035 00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:46,839 Speaker 1: big missing space there, it's not ideal. But if your 1036 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 1: teeth move forward to close the gap, it tends to 1037 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:53,160 Speaker 1: be better. So there's that element which is teeth move forward, 1038 00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:56,280 Speaker 1: and then over time it can increase. If your bite 1039 00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 1: is off, it's if it's not stable, then um teeth 1040 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:01,520 Speaker 1: will crow out more often. And also if you get 1041 00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:05,239 Speaker 1: gum disease, the bone support will actually degrade and that 1042 00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 1: makes teeth more movable and then they'll tend to lean 1043 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:13,520 Speaker 1: forward as well. So unfortunately, it's as deep as like genetics. 1044 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 1: So you need to keep your retainer in to maintain 1045 00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 1: straight teeth pretty much no matter what. There's not many 1046 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,640 Speaker 1: things I'm great at in life, but I am really 1047 00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 1: good at wearing my retainer. I wear every night. Chris, 1048 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 1: I just want to tell you that so that you 1049 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:30,640 Speaker 1: would feel like I'm a little bit better a human. Um. 1050 00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 1: I hope that worked. It's it's a genuine need. But yes, 1051 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:35,880 Speaker 1: then you always know how to sweet talk to me. 1052 00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:38,440 Speaker 1: I'm really getting in deep here. I'm pretty good at 1053 00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 1: it actually, any more beauty tips, Well, no, I do 1054 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 1: have a marketing ploy for you though. So if I 1055 00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 1: was a publicist of a boy band, like a publicism 1056 00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 1: boy band, I would tell them too that they all 1057 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:51,560 Speaker 1: have to remain single in order to get the girls 1058 00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:53,240 Speaker 1: to come to the concerts, you know, because the girls 1059 00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:55,840 Speaker 1: need to have that fantasy of getting with them. With you, 1060 00:57:55,960 --> 00:58:00,360 Speaker 1: as the hot dentist opening a new office, I would 1061 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,439 Speaker 1: have not even brought up your girlfriend and just tried 1062 00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:04,440 Speaker 1: to get everybody that listens to our podcast to go 1063 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:07,960 Speaker 1: to your office. And then when they're there and sucked 1064 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 1: in by your talent, then they'd be like, oh, he's 1065 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,800 Speaker 1: not single, darn it. They see the picture on the 1066 00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 1: desk of him and his girl smiling. Well, Chris to 1067 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,000 Speaker 1: in this to talk about your girlfriend the one last time. 1068 00:58:19,120 --> 00:58:22,360 Speaker 1: I have two big questions for you. Okay, one's gonna 1069 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 1: be a softball question and I'll wait to end it 1070 00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:28,120 Speaker 1: with that. The first one is, how is your girlfriend's breath? 1071 00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:38,360 Speaker 1: My girlfriend, Well, come on, I'm on her about brushing 1072 00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:41,080 Speaker 1: and filosting. Twice a day, so she's perfect and you 1073 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:44,800 Speaker 1: know what, not accept anything different than that. But fortunately 1074 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:48,000 Speaker 1: she's kind of like a neat freak and health freak anyways, 1075 00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 1: so it didn't take long. But she's got the water pick, 1076 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:54,400 Speaker 1: she's got the toothpaste, so it's it's minty all the time. 1077 00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:57,960 Speaker 1: You're getting all giddy talking about that. When you get giddy, yeah, 1078 00:58:57,960 --> 00:58:59,640 Speaker 1: but we start talking about your girlfriend's breath and you're 1079 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,840 Speaker 1: worman in your chair. You're smiling big. I mean, you 1080 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 1: know how to get to Chris's hard. The last question 1081 00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:09,240 Speaker 1: for you, buddy, is what what are your favorite characteristics 1082 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:11,080 Speaker 1: about your girlfriend? Like, what do you really like after 1083 00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:13,120 Speaker 1: two years? What have you learned that you really appreciate 1084 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 1: about her? She's just such a sweetheart. I mean, she 1085 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 1: she cares about me so much. If I'm stressed out, 1086 00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 1: she's there for me. She's supportive, and she really is encouraging. 1087 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 1: I mean, if you know, you have self doubt sometimes 1088 00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:32,240 Speaker 1: and she just like believes in me so much, so 1089 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:35,040 Speaker 1: I would say that that's the thing. Also, we can 1090 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:38,880 Speaker 1: talk and talk and talk forever. She's always got um 1091 00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:41,400 Speaker 1: like something interesting to say, and I feel like that 1092 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:44,560 Speaker 1: for me in the past, that's been uh kind of 1093 00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:45,920 Speaker 1: a hold up? Is you just kind of run out 1094 00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:48,320 Speaker 1: of things to talk about? But she and I are 1095 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:51,280 Speaker 1: always having some good conversations, so I don't know if 1096 00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:54,520 Speaker 1: she's just very engaging and she's gotta big heart. Let's 1097 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 1: talk about your extralfriend. Caitlin Burstow for a second, are 1098 00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:00,920 Speaker 1: you watching her? I'm Dancing with the Stars. Oh my gosh, 1099 01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:05,320 Speaker 1: she did so good. Even later dog out thought she 1100 01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:10,120 Speaker 1: did well. I saw that. I mean, I'm I'm so 1101 01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 1: happy for Caitlin because eat any one of these elements 1102 01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 1: in isolation would have been enough to just make everything 1103 01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:20,400 Speaker 1: for make her year. But they're all happening together and 1104 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:24,440 Speaker 1: she's actually doing well, So I know it'd be hard 1105 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,440 Speaker 1: to have, Like it would be two bachelorettes in a 1106 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:30,160 Speaker 1: row if she wins, right, Yeah, I know that'd be 1107 01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:33,760 Speaker 1: seems unprecedented.

She says, I have this burning question, 1144 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,080 Speaker 1: ses you two seem to have a great relationship with 1145 01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:52,520 Speaker 1: everyone in Bachelor Nation. Does it ever feel hard to 1146 01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:55,400 Speaker 1: give headlines on good friends of yours? Even if they're 1147 01:02:55,440 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 1: positive headlines? Well, not positive headlines. In my opinion, the 1148 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 1: headlines are always easy, but uh, these controversial headlines, especially 1149 01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 1: that we've been getting over the past year, have been 1150 01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:10,480 Speaker 1: very awkward to talk about. And even if you're not 1151 01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 1: friends with them, you've met them a few times and 1152 01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:16,600 Speaker 1: I feel like what Ben always says about in depth podcast, 1153 01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:21,040 Speaker 1: once you know someone, it's hard to ever it's hard 1154 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:25,320 Speaker 1: to not like them. Yeah, so so yeah, it's it's 1155 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:27,720 Speaker 1: a challenge to talk about some of these topics about 1156 01:03:27,720 --> 01:03:31,560 Speaker 1: our friends and acquaintances. But we also hope that they 1157 01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:34,280 Speaker 1: respect that this is like our job and that they 1158 01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:38,080 Speaker 1: have chosen to be public figures who should expect to 1159 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:40,280 Speaker 1: be spoken about in the media. I mean, some of 1160 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:44,080 Speaker 1: my friends. If I were to do something, uh that 1161 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,760 Speaker 1: was off center and I would expect me to talk 1162 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:48,680 Speaker 1: about it, I'd have no problem with that. It wouldn't 1163 01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 1: be fun, right, It's not ideal, but that's the world 1164 01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:54,120 Speaker 1: that we live in. I will say this though before, 1165 01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:57,840 Speaker 1: like especially right now, like Colton and Cassie are a 1166 01:03:57,880 --> 01:04:00,760 Speaker 1: a scenario we can talk about going on right now, 1167 01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 1: Ashley and I do spend time off of the podcast 1168 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 1: talking about each other's emotions and feelings and trying to 1169 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 1: get to a place that's not um unhealthy. I guess 1170 01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 1: would like at least a place that's been thought through 1171 01:04:14,880 --> 01:04:18,400 Speaker 1: and not speaking from reaction, but speaking from hey, what's 1172 01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 1: being reported, what are people saying? How do you feel 1173 01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 1: about this? How do I feel about it? And then 1174 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:24,480 Speaker 1: we can come on here and have a little bit 1175 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:29,280 Speaker 1: of a wiser conversation that still touches everything that we're 1176 01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:32,480 Speaker 1: feeling and thinking. It just not might not be so reactionary, 1177 01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:35,040 Speaker 1: because I think reaction will get us into trouble and 1178 01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:38,720 Speaker 1: oftentimes have us saying things that just aren't true. That 1179 01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 1: just becomes more difficult because it takes more time. But 1180 01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:44,080 Speaker 1: it's not fun and it's all I mean, let's just 1181 01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 1: be honest with everything here. Like you all are fans 1182 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:49,880 Speaker 1: of the of the Bachelor and the Bachelor at it's 1183 01:04:49,920 --> 01:04:52,480 Speaker 1: not fun for you either to hear these headlines, Like 1184 01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:54,840 Speaker 1: it's not like you're celebrating the fact that there's trauma. 1185 01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:59,080 Speaker 1: There's drama and trauma and issues going on in the 1186 01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:01,160 Speaker 1: lives of these people who you've watched and rooted for 1187 01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:04,560 Speaker 1: and celebrated. Like it's hard for everybody involved, including the people. 1188 01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,040 Speaker 1: But we have the unique position that we need to 1189 01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:10,160 Speaker 1: talk about it because it is what we signed up for. 1190 01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:13,480 Speaker 1: It is what we've agreed to do. It's not fun, though, 1191 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:16,000 Speaker 1: and we hope that all these people know that if 1192 01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:18,200 Speaker 1: they do want to platform and talk about it, that 1193 01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:20,600 Speaker 1: we are giving it to them here too. So we 1194 01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 1: never want to just talk about them. We like to 1195 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:28,920 Speaker 1: talk with them if they feel comfortable. Well, actually, It's 1196 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:31,440 Speaker 1: been another week of the Almost Famous podcast and has 1197 01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:34,200 Speaker 1: you you go heal that face years?
