1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: This is the Benn and Ashley I Almost Famous podcast

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 1: with i R Radio. Hello, Ben, this is kind of

3
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: a sad day. It's a really sad I've been thinking

4
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 1: about my entire ride here. I'm not like, I don't know,

5
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: I'm usually excited for this podcast, and I feel like

6
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:21,880
Speaker 1: it's still important. It's maybe more important than ever. But

7
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:26,560
Speaker 1: this is a tough one. So Caitlin and Sean broke up.

8
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: They call off their engagement after three years together. And

9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 1: these are two people that mean a lot to Ben

10
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: and myself because well Caitlin was on my season and

11
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: then Ben was on her season, and it was really

12
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: great friends with Sean. You guys bonded immediately in the

13
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:49,279
Speaker 1: house that was your roommate. Yeah, I like, I mean,

14
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: I love them both. I haven't been able to stay

15
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: in as good as touch with either of them as

16
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 1: i'd like to be. Um. I did know that there is,

17
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: you know, trouble and paradise, but there always is at

18
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: some level, right, you never really believe it could come true.

19
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: I was there for this whole love story to play out.

20
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I really thought they were meant to be. Um.

21
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: I truly still believe, honestly that their soul mates. I

22
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: feel like they are. This is just my personal opinion.

23
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: I could be totally off, but I feel like they've

24
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: gotten lost a bit in work. I think both of

25
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: them have a lot of their separate things going around.

26
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: He has his business, she has her podcast, and like

27
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:32,479
Speaker 1: a zillion other things, and I just feel like they

28
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: let work at the best of them, and they were

29
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: spending so much time apart that they weren't finding ways

30
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 1: to reconnect with each other. They just didn't have enough time.

31
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: They were not living a life that was like conducive

32
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: to having a romantic personal relationship. What do you think? Yeah?

33
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: And I also think, actually with everything you said too,

34
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: was that maybe time apart will bring them together. That's

35
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: always something that you hope for if they're open to it.

36
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: Uh So we're I'm looking here at the US Weekly

37
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: article that came out, which is um It's titled Caitlin

38
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: Bristow and Sean Booth split call off engagement after three

39
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: years together. I'm just gonna read it for a little bit.

40
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: Breaking up it's hard to do. Caitlin Bristow and Sean

41
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: Booth have split and they've called up their engagement after

42
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: three years together. Says in this article, Caitlin has basically

43
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: caught off her engagement to Sean, but they're still trying

44
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: to work on their relationship. That's that's important for us

45
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: to know, because um, I don't want to give up

46
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: hope that this is still something that could work, but

47
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: I know that this is really none of our business.

48
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: I've been through this, and all I will say is

49
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: I'll reach out to Sean um just to be It's

50
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 1: a tough season, no matter what I mean. There is

51
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: a thousand bits of criticism and then there's support and

52
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 1: like the oddest ways actual listening to this. So when

53
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: you get like when a breakup happens publicly, the hardest

54
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 1: part is sometimes not the criticism of like, oh, I

55
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: knew it was never gonna work, Like you can brush

56
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: it off because that's not anybody's business and nobody really knew.

57
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: What sucks is when people when you still love the

58
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: the person that you're with, and people message you and

59
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: be like, oh, yeah, he was terrible or she was terrible,

60
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 1: and yeah you were never meant to be together and

61
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: you should have done this, you shouldn't. That's when it

62
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: really sucks. Like when people are trying to support you

63
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: or make you feel better about yourself, but at the

64
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: same time criticism criticizing the partner that you're with for

65
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: so long and you shared your heart with. So that's tough. Yeah.

66
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to say speak as if I know

67
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:29,399
Speaker 1: exactly what's going on. I mean I obviously sensed trouble,

68
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: as even most fans did, because they just really stopped

69
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: liking each other's stuff on Instagram. I know it sounds stupid,

70
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: but they did. They stopped posting with each other, and

71
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: it maybe that wouldn't have been weird if they hadn't

72
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: been a couple that was always posting about each other

73
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: before whatever like trouble came about. So how did they

74
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: announced the break up? Ash Well, it looked like through

75
00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 1: people dot Com really were the ones to announce it.

76
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: US Weekly article is interesting because I also heard that

77
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: on Thursday he had an article come out saying that

78
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: they were like pretty much on the rocks but really

79
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: trying like it was a bad spot, but like they

80
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: weren't ready to call it. But then people on Friday

81
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: said that they kind of just called it, and they

82
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 1: had the quotes. Um, I'm just I don't know, guys,

83
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: I really feel like their soul mates. And maybe I'm

84
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 1: just an optimist, but I really do hope that they

85
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: split and then they realize how much they missed each

86
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: other because watching them on TV and in person together,

87
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: you're just like, that's electric, that's goals. Honestly, Jared and

88
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: I have always named them as the couple that It

89
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: sounds bad now, but we'd always wanted to be like,

90
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: because they're just so fun and playful together and you

91
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: just felt the magic around them. That's something special. That's

92
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: not your average couple. No, it's not. No. Actually, I

93
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: think I get to what you're saying, and I think

94
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: everybody does. Is they We all were cheering for him

95
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: and rooting for him, and you know, their their journey

96
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: had been long. I mean, at this point, it doesn't

97
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 1: even seem like they're a bachelor cuple anymore more. You know,

98
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 1: it's Caitlin Sean just together. In general. Um, what do

99
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: you think life looks like for each of them individually? Now?

100
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: Moving forward? Do you think Sean gets a lot of

101
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 1: attention or do you think he kind of keeps it quiet?

102
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: You know, how does Caitlin move forward? Is she the

103
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: next bachelorette? What happened. I think fans would love to

104
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 1: see Caitlin as the next bachelorette, but I don't know

105
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 1: that the show would do that again. I don't know

106
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 1: what's going to happen with their house or their dog,

107
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 1: because man, is Caitlin attached to that dog. You know

108
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: they'd have to have joint const talk. All of this

109
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: is so sad ash this is this is the moments

110
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 1: that we don't like doing the podcast, but we know

111
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: we need to do it. The truth is, Kaitlin Sean

112
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 1: have now officially broken up. Okay, so I just pulled

113
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: up the people dot com article. This is their exclusive

114
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: statement to people. After three incredible years, we have decided

115
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: to go our separate ways. This difficult decision has come

116
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: after thoughtful, respectful consideration. Even though we are parting as

117
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: a couple, we are very much committed to remain friends.

118
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: We have both of allD us people, which is taking

119
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 1: us in different directions, but with the hope that we

120
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: will continue to support each other in new ways. Due

121
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: to the nature of how we met, our relationship has

122
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: always been very public and we have enjoyed sharing it

123
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: with all of you, but we asked that you respect

124
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: our decision and privacy at this time. That makes me

125
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: think of two things. One, please guys be kind and

126
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 1: respectful and don't retaliate against this, you know. And then

127
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: my second thought is three incredible years. It's just you

128
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: never see bachelor couples split after a long period of

129
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: time together. We've never really seen that until now. No.

130
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: I mean, we have a couple of begs. The question

131
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: anybody out there listening email us at been and Ashley

132
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: I heart media dot com. It's a couple of other

133
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: couples out there that have been together for a while. Joe,

134
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 1: Joe and Jordan's um, Rachel and Brian. Uh, you know,

135
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: we obviously have Ari and Lauren, and then Becca and

136
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: Garrett right now. They're all kind of out there in

137
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: the dating world. Which one of those couples will be

138
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: married first? We want to hear from you. We don't

139
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: want to talk about the breakups, who knows, that's not

140
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: something to talk about, but we want to hear who

141
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: do you think will actually make the commitment first? Because Ashley,

142
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,559
Speaker 1: as Ashley said, it feels like we're losing a married

143
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: couple from Bachelor Nation, even though officially they never were.

144
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: Switching gears here, we're bringing on somebody that's on this

145
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: podcast almost as much as we are. I am I

Speaker 1: lot of awards recently for your radio work. That's right.

152
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: I got second place again in Nashville. Pretty good about it.

153
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: I've lost Bobby Bones seven years, so good stuff. Um,

154
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,480

186
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: good point. But well, you've got some great musical tastes.

192
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,040

Speaker 1: on the show with me and what we're going to

194
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,640

228
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 1: Brandy Sires a couple of times. We've You guys always

229
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: seem to dig out parts of me that I don't

230
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 1: know exist. This is what Ben does, guys, and I

231
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: know I'm sure your listeners now know this. Ben. You

232
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: said in the beginning, Ben deflects when it ever gets seriously,

233
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: and it's so easy for Ben to pull out some

234
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: like real deep dark stuff out of you. The second

235
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 1: you try to get Ben to talk about anything, he's like, well,

236
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: hold of second. Ben said, he's having an emotional a

237
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: little bit of an emotional sort of times emotional. So

238
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 1: I said, what's going on? Nothing? He switched it. Suddenly

239
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,079
Speaker 1: we were knee deep into talking about how he doesn't

240
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,839
Speaker 1: like people that talk during the movies. Yeah, bad thing.

241
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: I hate the movies. Well, it was the movies that

242
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: started as that's the reason he doesn't watch scary movies,

243
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: because there's some darkness inside him. The house. Yeah. Along.

244
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,599
Speaker 1: Gale makes an appearance on Netflix's new show what is

245
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 1: it called The Hunting of Hill House? Why phenomenal? Terrified,

246
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: Like I can't stand scary things and I watched it

247
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: is so good. But Alon is a plumber, the executive

248
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,559
Speaker 1: producer of the Bachelor. How does he get on this stuff?

249
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 1: He showed up on the Avenger Aventures movie Friends with

250
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 1: James Gunn, and then he shows up on this is

251
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,120

252
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 1: I think he wants to be known for his cameos.

253
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: I think he'd like to show up for like five

254
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: seconds in every movie he could. I kind of like it.

255

264
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: that came in this week as well, and I was

265
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: watching videos from UM a few months ago, and Ashley

266
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,280

267
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: was in love with Jared or that we were together both.

268
00:13:55,679 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: So you're watching clips from Paradise sure, announcing it and studio. Yeah,

269
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: and she is bawling, I mean balling, and it just

270
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 1: made my heart so happy that it was so nice.

271
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: It was such a beautiful moment for us, when you

272
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 1: find your wife. I'm good, I'm just hanging out. What's

273
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,319
Speaker 1: real quick? Who is your celebrity crush right now? That's

274
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: a good question. It's always gonna be Halle Berry. She's

275
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: always going to let's be realistic, Ben, who is someone that,

276
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: like I, we could legitimately go out and like get

277
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: for you? You know? Olivia Corpo still still well you know,

278
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: I'm just like obsessed with her so much like you guys.

279
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: I look at her Instagram like way too much. I

280
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: study like how I could be more like her? Do

281
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: you do you look at hers more than like a Kardashian? Yes? Really,

282
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: oh so much more, don't the Kardashians. Yes. Yeah, it's

283
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: kind of weird because she like kind of knows she

284
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: like Olivia is very aware of my obsession with her.

285
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: It's kind of weird. No, it's not weird. You're just supportive,

286
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: like when you're in on something. You like to go

287
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: all out, like, you don't want to go halfway. So

288
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 1: Danny A. Mendola and Olivia couple have been like dating

289
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 1: for two years, and of course he used to be

290
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: a Patriot, So Jared has like a man crush on him,

291
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: and I have a girl crush on Olivia. So here's

292
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: the weird thing. Uh TMZ came out with these pictures

293
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: very recently that Danny was seen spotted with another girl

294
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: on the beach. So that means that Olivia may either

295
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: be cheated be cheated on, or she's single and she

296
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: can date you and I definitely haven't in there took

297
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: that up. Let's let's let's go down that route. Okay,

298
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: let's get him hooked up. Okay. Also, can we just

299
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: pivot real quick, like, if you are famous at all,

300
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: why do you think that you're gonna be able to

301
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: get away with cheating on your significant other. Everyone has

302
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: a camera on their in their pocket right now. He's

303
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: on the beach in these pictures, in a very public beach.

304
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,280

00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 1: oven for a little extra time because I love my

356
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: pizza just a little crispy. But if I'm feeling a

357
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: little more healthy, I'm beating all the healthy vegetable grains

358
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,639

402
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: only part I've ever really cared about is dressing up.

403
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: I feel like there could be I'd be happy if

404
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,600

405
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 1: as somebody else. I'm not a big dress up guy. Yeah,

406
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,919
Speaker 1: I know. We established this last week I don't get it,

407
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: I know, but here's one should come on the I

408
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 1: don't get a podcast and we could talk about how

409
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: I literally don't get how you don't have a passion

410
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 1: for dressing up. I would love to talk about it,

411
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: because I don't get it either. I've never had I

412
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: think I'm secretly really evil. You know what's funny? Sometimes

413
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 1: I think that you could be like that sometimes when

414
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 1: you've had too much whiskey. And only when you've had

415
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: too much whiskey. Do I think this man could be

416
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 1: a secret feeling? What do I do? You have a

417
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,679
Speaker 1: little like you have trouble in your eyes, like you

418
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: want to start something. Well, that's kind of where I

419
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 1: was going with this. You were, Yeah, I feel like

420
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 1: Ben is actually mad at me. You guys, I'm not

421
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 1: really mad at all, really, just one of those other things.

422
00:21:55,600 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: Just somebody else thinks I'm unlovable. Oh, stop that I'm

423
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: talking about what you have whiskey in you. Well, here's

424
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: the thing getting on Halloween. I have this weird urge

425
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: and I always have that. All these people out and

426
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,199
Speaker 1: it's like supposed to be spooky and scary, right, I

427
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: don't know what it is about me? But I do

428
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: want to hide in the bushes and scared, Like that's

429
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: the only thing I want to do on Halloween, and

430
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: I feel like it's the only time that actually can

431
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: sym I be acceptable. I don't want to ruin their lives.

432
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: I don't want to do anything too drastic, but I

433
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 1: just get this urge to like hide behind something and

434
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,199
Speaker 1: jump out and go boom. You should live in my

435
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 1: apartment then, because Lauren and Jared are always trying to

436
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,959
Speaker 1: scare each other. So when one person was out and

437
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 1: then like the key starts turning in the door, one

438
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 1: of them will hide and then bust out of a

439
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 1: door minutes later, you know, like not just like right away,

440
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: but like ten minutes later, after casual chit chat. Then

441
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 1: they'll burst out of a closet get each other. Yeah,

442
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: that's been a couple of good times. Fun. There is

443
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: one really good time where Jared was hiding in Lawrence

444
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:08,120
Speaker 1: closet and the reaction he was filming at the entire

445
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: time unbelievable. And but what's the best part was almost

446
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: her face when she realized it was Jared, just because

447
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 1: she was what like felt safe, just like embarrassed almost

448
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,199
Speaker 1: because she flipped out and then like the realization that

449
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: it was him. She was just like, oh, oh my goodness,

450
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: how did he do that to me? Are you jump not?

451
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, yeah, but I'm not scared easily. Like

452
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,360
Speaker 1: we kind of touched on last week. I there's no

453
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,679
Speaker 1: movie that I can think of that really whacked me

454
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 1: out as an adult. The Ring, The Exorcist, and The

455
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 1: Sixth Cents where it really got me as kids as

456
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 1: a kid. Yeah, what about you? What got you as

457
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 1: a kid? Only the bathroom seed with all the blood,

458
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: Just the clown. I don't like clowns, well, do I

459
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: remember you? Clowns. That's what we talked about last year.

460
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: It's just an issue. I don't understand clowns. There's nothing

461
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: about a clown that makes any sense. I would love

462
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: for somebody out there explained the intrigue of clowns, Like

463
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 1: why would you hire a clown to come to your

464
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,439
Speaker 1: birthday party? Why would you pay a grown adult to

465
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 1: dress up in something that is pretty creepy? I think,

466
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm not even gonna apologize for any

467
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: clowns out there. No, I don't think that. I think

468
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 1: it's very outdated thing. I don't think people have clowns

469
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: come to birthday parties anymore? I think it really stopped

470
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 1: with our generation. I think clowns coming to birthday parties

471
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: was lastly a nineties thing, don't you agree? Have you

472
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 1: seen a clown at a birthday party? At least? No? No,

473
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,120
Speaker 1: I would never go to a birthday party with the clown.

474
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,439
Speaker 1: I would not go. I promise you we did this

475
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 1: on them Happily ever After? Yeah, I know you, like,

476
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 1: didn't you have a clown experience on Happily ever After? Um,

477
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 1: I have had a couple of Yeah, the show seems

478
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: to like to bring out, you know, things that scary

479
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 1: the most. So Happily ever After definitely had clowns. Um

480
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 1: and then one of the girls during Leah on the

481
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 1: season the Bachelor dressed up as a clown. I couldn't

482
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 1: look at the same ever she went home that week. Um,

483
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: I just had to get rid of it. There. There's

484
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: a thing that happened with me as a young child.

485
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 1: I remember this day. I think I've shared on the

486
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 1: podcast before, and if not, we'll share it again. It's

487
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 1: been a while. Um, I was at the circus with

488
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 1: my grandmother and should we sat front row? Really nice

489
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 1: of her to buy me tickets to the front row

490
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:20,439
Speaker 1: of the circus, and a clown and a gorilla, like

491
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,719
Speaker 1: a man dressed up like a gorilla, came over and

492
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: took my grandma like into the circus like arena, you

493
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about, and left me there. So

494
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: I'm just little kids sitting all alone, and I see

495
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 1: her being stolen. At the time, I don't know it's

496
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,640
Speaker 1: a fake gorilla, and the clown, to me is something

497
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: I've already been scared. So you want to picture your

498
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 1: absolute worst nightmare. You have your grandmother that you love

499
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 1: dearly get taken into the arena by two of your

500
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 1: least favorite things. Oh my goodness, and you have to

501
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: watch from the sidelines. It's not okay, it's it's scarred

502
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: me for life. That's so so scary. On a clown note,

503
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: my grandma clowns and Grandmother's my grandmother actually loves clowns.

504
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: She has porcelain clowns in her house still. They always

505
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 1: used to freak me out as a as a kid.

506
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,360
Speaker 1: But there's one thing. It's in the guest room upstairs,

507
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: and it's a clown portrait. And whenever I'm sleeping in

508
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:16,880
Speaker 1: that room. I have to take it down and turn

509
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: it around. It's so creepy it stares you overnight. And

510
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: it's not a joyful looking clown. It is a clown

511
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: that it's an eight clown, to be honest, Do you

Speaker 1: you're the better look one, like you know, back when

544
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 1: I just had like a crush on him, when I

545
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 1: was in love with him, and he didn't reciprocate. But

546
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: now that we're together, people will tell me that anymore

547
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 1: because it's not true anymore, because he's absolutely the better

548
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: looking one. And I call this Jackie syndrome because one

549
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: time there was a guy who had a crush on

550
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: his girlfriend's day was Jackie and she was not cute

551
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 1: and he was stunning, and so now I think I

552
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 1: have Jackie syndrome. No, you're beautiful. Well thanks, but you

553
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 1: know he's a model. Now he is. You go back

554
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 1: and look at him in two thousand and fifteen. Two

555
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: Now it's almost not no, not happy. He says. It's

556
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: love though. Isn't that cute? He's always like, I'm just happy.

557
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 1: This is just happy. Sounds gross. So you guys are together,

558
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: this is your holidays together. Yeah, this is a big deal,

559
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 1: your first engaged Thanksgiving coming up, you know, Halloween. It's fun.

560
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: It's all fun and games than giving. What do you do, Like,

561
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 1: how are you managing this? Well, um, we've decided that

562
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: he's gonna come to my house for Thanksgiving and I'm

563
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 1: going to go to his house for Christmas. It was

564
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: not easy, Jared. He's a holiday man, like, he loves

565
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: the Northeast during the holiday season and is his favorite

566
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 1: stretch of time from that Thanksgiving through New Year's period,

567
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: And it wasn't easy for him to, you know, surrender

568
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: to having Thanksgiving at our house, but I thought that

569
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: Christmas means more to him. So there you go, speaking

570
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 1: of big deals. Graham Bunn is coming into studio. He's

571
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 1: actually working his way in right now. He's gonna pop

572
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: a squat. When did your show premiere? No? Um, but

573
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 1: before before we start with Graham, Graham, make yourself comfortable, Um,

574
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 1: Ashley compromises big in the holidays. Oh, I want to Yeah,

575
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: I want to talk to you. Would you do agree

576
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: that you are with Lauren? Uh? Yeah, so we're too.

577
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: We just spent two holidays together. Um. My first year,

578
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 1: my family flew to Portland's so my parents were the

579
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: Portland and we celebrated in Portland. I think we might

580
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 1: do that for Christmas. I think my parents may come

581
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: to the Providence area and then for the next year.

582
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: I went with Lauren's family to um A Palm Springs there,

583
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,840
Speaker 1: but she didn't get to spend a holiday with my family,

584
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: and so, um, I'm I guess my families are still

585
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 1: holiday virgins when it comes to having Maybe is it

586
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 1: because you're an only child and your parents can travel? Yeah,

587
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 1: I think it was easy. I think I think they volunteered,

588
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: so it wasn't a big deal. But I do think

589
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 1: compromise is big in the holidays. I can see where

590
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: it become a big issue. Um, and it's actually kind

591
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 1: of nice to spend the holidays together, like both families. Yeah,

592
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: like that bonded everybody. Yeah, So alright, guys, we have

593
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: grand bun here. He is a bachelor of Luma that

594
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: you may not remember the name of right now, but

595
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: once he gets talking, you're going to remember him. But

596
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: before we get him in here, we need to talk

597
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 1: about something that is going to change your vitamin life, ladies.

598
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 1: It's called ritual. Traditional multi vitamins weren't doing women any favors,

599
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: so Ritual reimagined one from the ground up. The result

600
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: is Essential Vitamins for women is two daily capsules that

601
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: are made with nine essential nutrients that women lack the most.

602
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 1: Let me tell you more. Okay, from D three to

603
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: Omega three. Ritual Essential is just needed for a woman's diet.

604
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 1: And it smells so fresh and minty, no fishy after taste.

605
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 1: That's like the basics. That's basically the only reason that

606
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:41,240

00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,279

657
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:32,759

659
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,799
Speaker 1: do not know Graham, Graham, you were, which would be

660
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 1: of the people listening the Bachelorette in what year? I

661
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 1: believe it was two thousand nine? It was Diana Peppers,

662
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 1: but then she I that was before my time. Yeah,

663
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: she went with a guy named Jesse Sin Sak. I

664
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: believe they're together still. No, I think that last and

665
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,839
Speaker 1: maybe six days. You know what I noticed about bachelor relationships,

666
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 1: they're either really quick to end or they last the

667
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 1: long hault Ben you may have been the only exception

668
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: I can think of where it lasted a year and

669
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: a half the middle of the road. Would you would

670
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 1: you say a year and a half the middle of

671
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,719
Speaker 1: the road. I would say that's the middle of the road.

672
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: I would agree. I would agree at that point, like

673
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 1: the like honeymoon phase has gone away, the nostalgia has

674
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 1: kind of gone away, and you have to actually start

675
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: having like a real like you worked at it, Yeah,

676
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: you worked at it. So eighteen months in um then

677
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 1: after the Bachelorette you transitioned, uh into radio? Or were

678
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,320
Speaker 1: you already in radio? No? No, I've never done radio before.

679
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: And it was years and years later that I kind

680
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: of actually fell into radio, which was an amazing opportunity,

681
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 1: very cool. So um act of God. For sure, never

682
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: been behind a mic, and uh, I didn't think it

683
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 1: was gonna work out well, but yeah I did it

684
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,360
Speaker 1: for like four and a half years out here in California.

685
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 1: That's awesome. Yeah, it's very cool. What was the show

686
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,840
Speaker 1: set up on? It was just country music. It was

687
00:35:57,880 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 1: a morning show, so it was like morning drive, you

688
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: get up, drive to work. I was a guy introducing songs,

689
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 1: interviewing artists, kind of talking about country music. Where it's going,

690
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: stuff like that. What do you do now? I am

691
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,800
Speaker 1: hosting a television show which will premiere on USA Network.

692
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: No's under the premise. It's different than American Idol, but

693
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: I think people would kind of acknowledge that that's the

694
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 1: most widely known singing competition, so kind of like American Idol.

695
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,280
Speaker 1: Each episode in itself, though, it is kind of a showcase.

696
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 1: So there will be a winner every week, So if

697
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: you miss week one or week two, it doesn't really matter.

698
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: You can watch week through. Every show is a one off,

699
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: and then there'll be a grand finale with all the winners.

700
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 1: Is there a certain genre of music It's all country.

701
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 1: It's called real country. Yep, it's gonna be good. A

702
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: big country fan. If so? I mean, now you're hosting,

703
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: and so I want to talk. I want to dig

704
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,879
Speaker 1: into the show. Here, dig into it. Lets you told

705
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong? You know that Grant you have

706
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: done a lot kind of with Do you feel like

707
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: the connections and networking that was made coming off the

708
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,720
Speaker 1: Batchelorrette or is this all kind of in the works

709
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 1: totally separate from the batchel at I mean, for you

710
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: did not be hosting a show on the USA network.

711
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,880
Speaker 1: Uh is a big deal? Well? Thank you? Yeah, I

712
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 1: mean it's anytime you get to do anything cool and exciting,

713
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 1: just like what you guys are doing, it's a big

714
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 1: deal and it's uh yeah, it was very flattering and humbling.

715
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 1: And I think you can never discount the influence that

716
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,479
Speaker 1: Bachelor and Bachelor Nation and everyone that loves that show has.

717
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 1: But I fully feel like my the work that I've

718
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,319
Speaker 1: done in country radio was was a big influence on

719
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 1: getting this job. Yeah. The relationships that you build and

720
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 1: the way that you treat people and stuff like that.

721
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 1: You know, speaking of relationships, have you found one since

722
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 1: the Bachelor att Yeah, I was in two long term relationships,

723
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,359
Speaker 1: one for five years and one for six years. So uh,

724
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 1: definitely did the long term thing. And and l A

725
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 1: is kind of a hard place to date, but so fortunate.

726
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm actually still really close friends with Diana,

727
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: So I cannot speak enough about what a wonderful opportunity

728
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 1: it was to be on The Bachelor, and and you know,

729
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 1: I had a great time just She and I weren't

730
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 1: meant for forever, but we're definitely forever friends for sure.

731
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: I went to her wedding, which was which was cool. Unfortunately,

732
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: no one told her dad, because I ended up in

733
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 1: the toast somehow as like a joke, and that was

734
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: kind of weird. It was like, don't let me get

735
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 1: don't get me started on the Grand Years or something.

736
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: Everybody at my table was like, uh, so, did where

737
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 1: did you end up on that season? I left? So

738
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,839
Speaker 1: I actually asked to leave the show. Um, I left

739
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 1: after Hometowns because I she had met my family, nothing

740
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,240
Speaker 1: changed in my heart, and I didn't want to deprive

741
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: her of finding something because she you know, she had

742
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: already been through the ringer with Brad Womack and being

743
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 1: left as the final girl and oh that's okay, So

744
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 1: that's how I know her. You have the final girl

745
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 1: on the first season. Yeah, and then uh so yeah,

746
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: so it got down to the hometowns and she met

747
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: my family. My family loved her. It's just it didn't

748
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: change for me. So I went to her and everyone

749
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: that worked there and said, hey, look, this is gonna

750
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 1: be my last episode, and uh, whatever she wants to do,

751
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,720
Speaker 1: it's cool with me. She's the best and I'll always

752
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 1: love her, but I don't think that I'm gonna propose.

753
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: So I left the show. Uh the next day, Okay,

754
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: So moving now back into the show. This is the

755
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 1: big piece of your life. Radio Left Radio took the

756
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 1: jump into TV and UH could not say enough about

758
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 1: The talent on the show was insane. One of the

759
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:18,520
Speaker 1: things that's different about this show is they booked people

760
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 1: that it either done a hundred and fifty two shows

761
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: on their own touring doing professional gigs. So these are

762
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: all professional singers that don't currently have a record deal,

763
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 1: but are right there. You know, there's only so many

764
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: spots that these record labels can take on, and there's

765
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 1: so much talent out there, so it's just another platform

766
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 1: for very talented artists to get their names and their

767
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,880
Speaker 1: music out there. I was gonna say, um, why watch

768
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: your show instead of The Voice or American Idol? Well,

769
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,360
Speaker 1: our show if the Voice in American I will do

770
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: a wonderful job of encompassing all genres of music. So

771
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,919
Speaker 1: if you're a country fan and you're watching The Voice,

772
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 1: you kind of have to wait four or five songs

773
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 1: or four or five artists to get to something that

774
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 1: you really identify with. For a real country if you're

775
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 1: a country music fan, every song that gets saying it's

776
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 1: going to be by one of your favorite artists, and

777
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,239
Speaker 1: you're gonna get to see someone insanely talented put their

778
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: own spin on it. So it's kind of best of

779
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 1: both worlds. You get to see new talent with familiar

780
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 1: music that you already love. So it's it was a

781
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,359
Speaker 1: really cool thing to see. And we had like a

782
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: live audience there when we filmed it. It was a blast.

783
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: We held it in a bar, people were drinking. Yeah, yeah,

784
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,319
Speaker 1: it was a blast. Like the scene was super dope.

785
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 1: It was cool. Are their celebrity judges Yeah, so Shania Twain, Yeah,

786
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: so Shania Twain, Travis Tritt, and Jake Going Yeah, those

787
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: are huge. Yeah there, and they were great. I mean

788
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: they were really invested. And the cool thing about this

789
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 1: show is they went out and they brought the people

790
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 1: they wanted. So they went out and found artists that

791
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 1: they thought were super cool and they're kind of competing.

792
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 1: There's there is an element of the voice there that

793
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: each one of them has. They don't have a team,

794
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: but they're the ones that hand picked the artists that came,

795
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: and so you'll you'll see who Travis invited, who Travis

796
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 1: believes in and the kind of music that Travis kind

797
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 1: of associates with and what influence to him. And it's

798
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 1: completely different from Shania, and it's cool to see how

799
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,439
Speaker 1: they kind of navigate that give us all the dirt,

800
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 1: like how Shania is a human being. I was very

801
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: fortunate for some reason Shania, Like, yeah, she was, She

802
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: was very cool. I got to do a lot of

803
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 1: cool things on the show with Shania, just kind of

804
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: teaming up, and uh, Jake and Travis were great. Travis

805
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 1: is one of my favorite people on the planet. Jake's

806
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: just a really cool dude. Like what you see with

807
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 1: Jake oen is what you get. He's a cool guy.

808
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,479
Speaker 1: He loves country music. He's an encyclopedia of knowledge, as

809
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 1: is Travis and Shania. And it was just cool to

810
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 1: be a fly on the wall just hanging out with

811
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: those guys doing dinners and and kicking it being in

812
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 1: Nashville hearing stories. I mean, one night Travis was in

813
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 1: my my dressing room for like two hours telling stories

814
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 1: about hanging out with Whalen Jennings and I was I mean,

815
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 1: I was just blown away by some of the things.

816
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 1: You know, because Whalon has gone now and that's not

817
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 1: anyone that I can go see. So the only thing

818
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 1: that I could ever learn about Whalen if you love

819
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: country music is through Travis's stories, And it was just,

820
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:00,359
Speaker 1: I mean, it was like surreal. I was it there,

821
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,239
Speaker 1: Like Travis is a legend in his own right and

822
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 1: talking about hanging out with Whalen and Jennings don't get

823
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 1: much better than that. Actually, you a fan of country,

824
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 1: I am. I'm like, I don't go deep cuts, but

825
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,360
Speaker 1: like nineties and two thousands, country is one of my

826
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 1: favorite genres. Really, I'm a huge country fan. Yeah, Whale

827
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 1: is the man. I think I'm wearing my whaling ring,

828
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 1: which is good luck. But do you guys ever go

829
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,919
Speaker 1: to country shows? Like if people aren't fans of country music,

830
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 1: I encourage them to go to country shows because it's

831
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,239
Speaker 1: one of the best times you'll ever have. That's something

832
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 1: that Jared says. He's he's not one to listen to

833
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 1: country on the radio, but whenever he goes to a

834
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 1: country show, he's like, I could really get into this, Okay, Yeah,

835
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: it's a good time. It's just like a relaxed atmosphere.

836
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 1: So I was saying, I've been to a couple of

837
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 1: music festivals. The country's festivals always the best because I

838
00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 1: feel like the artists are always so welcoming and they

839
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 1: just want to have They want to have a drink,

840
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:47,440
Speaker 1: they want to have a talk, they want to hang out,

841
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 1: and they want to play good music. Yeah, I think

842
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 1: country artists in and I'm biased, are and I'll say

843
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,919
Speaker 1: some because I never want to offend anybody. The most

844
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 1: relatable artist on the planet some of Now, there's definitely

845
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 1: artists in pop and rap, hip hop, R and B,

846
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 1: whatever you wanna call it, that are definitely very relatable.

847
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 1: But I think across the board, country does an amazing

848
00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,800
Speaker 1: job of just being very relatable. I think that country

849
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:09,880
Speaker 1: music is just the pop music today because if you

850
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,240
Speaker 1: listen to pop radio, it's very like R and B based,

851
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 1: and it's all electronic. It's like sort of like a

852
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 1: mix of R and B and club music, and it's

853
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: definitely not my style. It just sounds very produced, you know,

854
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:26,880
Speaker 1: it's very in studio sounds, not organic instrument sounds. So

855
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,239
Speaker 1: when I want to hear a story and like a

856
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 1: meaning behind the lyrics, I have to listen to country.

857
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,759
Speaker 1: There's sometimes where I just I'm like, oh my god,

858
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:36,759
Speaker 1: I hate radio and then like you're like okay, yeah,

859
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,280
Speaker 1: you can actually change it over to the country stations

860
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: now and like feel substance. Yeah, it's cool. You know.

861
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 1: I think country artists do a great job of staying

862
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 1: authentic to storytelling. I mean, I know the sounds evolving

863
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 1: in Nashville goes through phases with different sounds, but the

864
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 1: storytelling aspect and just kind of relating to people on

865
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 1: a human level that never goes away. And I think

866
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: they do an amazing job on Real Country and you'll

867
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:01,359
Speaker 1: see it on USA UH premiering November three. They they

868
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 1: reinforced that theme throughout the entire show of why people

869
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 1: wrote a certain song, why people connect with this song,

870
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,920
Speaker 1: why they chose to perform certain songs, and what it

871
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: means to them, how it's encouraged them in their life.

872
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 1: And it's just really cool to see one I'm not

873
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:16,399
Speaker 1: blessed with that kind of talent, Like I could never

874
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 1: get up and sing a song and play an instrument

875
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 1: and kind of make someone feel what I'm feeling when

876
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,040
Speaker 1: I wrote or performed it. But to see these people

877
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 1: get up there and do it in front of Shanaya,

878
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 1: in front of Travis, in front of Jake, you know,

879
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 1: legends and icons and people that are doing their thing. Uh. Currently,

880
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:32,279
Speaker 1: it's really impressive to see me. I mean it was

881
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,359
Speaker 1: so cool. You have all ages, all ages, Yeah, all

882
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,799
Speaker 1: ages for sure. But there was the caveat that they

883
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,879
Speaker 1: had to have played a certain number of shows on

884
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,719
Speaker 1: their own touring, so they're like professional, professionally. Have any

885
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:47,359
Speaker 1: bad audition American? I know, there's there's none of that.

886
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 1: Like from the very first performance you see to the

887
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 1: very last performance you see, you'll see a professional performance. Yeah,

888
00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 1: you're right, You're you said that they had the artist

889
00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,280
Speaker 1: had to pick them m and so obviously they're semi professional.

890
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 1: H Have you seen The Stars Born? I have seen it.

891
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 1: I've seen it twice now. Yeah. Incredible And Bradley I

892
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 1: want to be Bradley Cooper. Okay, so I was actually

893
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,319
Speaker 1: going to tell you you kind of have Jackson. Oh yeah,

894
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:13,959
Speaker 1: that is one of the nicest things anyone's ever character.

895
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,800
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, he's the man in that movie. And uh,

896
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 1: they did an incredible job with the soundtrack. He's I

897
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 1: hope they win everything across the board. I mean the

898
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,320
Speaker 1: soundtrack is incredible. I believe that one of the songs

899
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 1: Shallow might be charting on Billboard. Oh, I think it

900
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:30,799
Speaker 1: probably is. Do you think that they're going to win

901
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,200
Speaker 1: Best Song for Shallows or the one at the end

902
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 1: that guy got wrote. I'm not sure. But what there

903
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:39,319
Speaker 1: are The cool thing about the movie, if you haven't

904
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:40,920
Speaker 1: seen it been check it out, is that is an

905
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: actual conversation that people are having, like what song is better?

906
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:46,839
Speaker 1: What song is gonna win award? Like it's so good

907
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 1: that that multiple could win. If he doesn't win Best Director, though,

908
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 1: I'll throw something at the TV screen. I'm not well

909
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 1: versed enough to know if anyone's won Best Director and

910
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:58,800
Speaker 1: their direct Best Actor at the same time. Well, maybe

911
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:01,799
Speaker 1: that has happened, but for your ectorial debut. So the

912
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 1: first time he's ever directed to win, which I think

913
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 1: he's the front runner, would be incredible. Well anyway, anyway, Ben,

914
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,920
Speaker 1: you gotta see it. Sorry, this is two podcasts in

915
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:12,440
Speaker 1: a row where I just have to continue to talk

916
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 1: about it. It's just like last year with The Greatest Showman.

917
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:17,920
Speaker 1: So much passion, just so much love. I actually had

918
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 1: to look up to see if the Greatest Showman was

919
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 1: this year. It wasn't. Um, so, what do you mean

920
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:28,759
Speaker 1: it came out in December of two. Yeah, I'm just

921
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,320
Speaker 1: like I think for the last two weeks, I've just

922
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,560
Speaker 1: been a little bit behind. I just noticed that I'm

923
00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 1: losing touch with the world, slowly but surely, out of you.

924
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: Ben's been having some what did you call it, sort

925
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 1: of an emotion emotion last week? He's emotional and then

926
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 1: I mentioned it earlier today, but it's like let it out. Yeah, yeah,

927
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 1: let's let's get into this. What's going on? What's going

928
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:50,920
Speaker 1: on in Ben's life that you're out of touch? And

929
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,240
Speaker 1: I think it was we figured out after the podcast

930
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: last week. We did our volunteer retreat, an organization that

931
00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:00,200
Speaker 1: was part of People in two Houses called me mann

932
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 1: I Hope United. Actually the winner for our Many Hope

933
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:10,520
Speaker 1: funder is your Standing's going to co host with with

934
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:17,440
Speaker 1: you guys today. Nice? Yeah, Hi, Lindsey, Welcome to Los Angeles. Um.

935
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,439
Speaker 1: But we did our volunteer retreat. So it's twenty five

936
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,960
Speaker 1: people in two houses. Uh, And it was two and

937
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,640
Speaker 1: a half full days. But and then I flew out

938
00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 1: here right afterwards to do the show last week, and

939
00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:31,319
Speaker 1: I just think I was drained. Yes, you're on the move.

940
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:33,040
Speaker 1: I was on the move. There's only so much. I

941
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 1: don't know if you feel his way, uh you know

942
00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:39,320
Speaker 1: within the church or within people that really cared. They

943
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,160
Speaker 1: the caveat is they actually euthentically care. How many times

944
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 1: in your life can you really be asked? How are

945
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:49,480
Speaker 1: you doing? No? No, no? How are you? Dude? Like

946
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 1: not like right now? Not good? I'm tired? You know?

947
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:56,120
Speaker 1: How are you? Is one of my least favorite questions.

948
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,320
Speaker 1: I hate the question how are I don't don't like

949
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:03,960
Speaker 1: people go him great to ask you. How how do

950
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,239
Speaker 1: you even answer that question? We talked about last week.

951
00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:08,279
Speaker 1: We couldn't come anywhere. How can you answer the how

952
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,239
Speaker 1: are you? Questions? I answered it the same way every time,

953
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 1: crazy blest. Okay, yeah, crazy because I'm like the luckiest

954
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:17,920
Speaker 1: person I know, so like no compliance. I am posessive.

955
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:20,719
Speaker 1: I've never been a time, there's never really been a

956
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:24,040
Speaker 1: time where I couldn't say crazy blest. Yeah, I'm crazy.

957
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 1: I mean honestly, I I you know, it did a

958
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 1: job that I was not groomed for. I didn't go

959
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,120
Speaker 1: to school for radio, and it had no radio background.

960
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 1: I got a chance to do my own show on

961
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:35,920
Speaker 1: you know a station out here in l A for

962
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,640
Speaker 1: four years, never hosted a TV show, got a chance

963
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,239
Speaker 1: to host on USA Network, Like I'm crazy, blesed, like

964
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,920
Speaker 1: God has definitely put his favor on my life. So

965
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,800
Speaker 1: like I feel I would feel selfish to answer it

966
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:48,680
Speaker 1: any other way than be like, yeah, I'm crazy, blessed,

967
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,040
Speaker 1: super lucky, super fortunate. That's a that's a great way

968
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 1: to answer it. I think there's that like level though,

969
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,279
Speaker 1: when you're around people for two full days and they

970
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,160
Speaker 1: really want to dig deep. They don't just want to

971
00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:00,879
Speaker 1: hear that but why oh yeah, But in the moment, yeah,

972
00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:02,760
Speaker 1: it just gets a little bit. So I was just tired,

973
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:05,319
Speaker 1: but I feel good this week, and I'm also just realized, well,

00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:19,880
Speaker 1: guys like him I get a little jealous of because

998
00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,000
Speaker 1: in my eyes when I drink too much bourbon, and

999
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:26,279
Speaker 1: so I just I'm not throwing good vibes off. And

1000
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:27,400
Speaker 1: so when he said that, I was like, this is

1001
00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:29,080
Speaker 1: the type of guy that Ashley would never say that

1002
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:35,200
Speaker 1: about then ever ever say it about Well, No, I

1003

00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 1: I agree. I know the one day I will just

00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: you on the phone, I'm like, Ashley, I'm struggling, I'm

1009
00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:00,879
Speaker 1: feeling you know, a little bit, you know, down and out.

1010
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:03,319
Speaker 1: I need a little help. And you're like, no, Ben,

1011
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:08,280
Speaker 1: like you're loved, You're cared for. I like, you actually

1012
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:11,160
Speaker 1: remember that one time. Remember that one time, Hey, you

1013
00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:12,800
Speaker 1: remember that one time that we had a really special

1014
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:18,360
Speaker 1: guest in studio. Yeah? Right now, Yes, we have the

1015
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:22,680
Speaker 1: fundraiser winner for Humane Hope United. Uh and I heart radio. Lindsay,

1016
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:27,640
Speaker 1: Welcome to studio. So Lindsay, Uh, just give a little background.

1017
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,480
Speaker 1: It's been a couple of weeks since we last talked

1018
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,799
Speaker 1: about it. Um. We threw a fundraiser for Humanity and

1019
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:37,360
Speaker 1: Hope United. UM. This fundraiser is gonna go to buy

1020
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:40,160
Speaker 1: a piece of land in Honduras that we currently lease

1021
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:44,240
Speaker 1: that supplies twenty plus people everyday jobs. And these jobs

1022
00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:50,360
Speaker 1: then obviously then equate to access to education, healthcare, clean water, UM, infrastructure,

1023
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 1: so on and so forth. It's a really big deal

1024
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:54,560
Speaker 1: that we buy this piece of land because the palm

1025
00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 1: companies are coming in to buy it. And so that's

1026
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 1: the reason why it's pressing now that we raised two

1027
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 1: or fifty dollars by March one of next year to

1028
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:05,000
Speaker 1: buy this piece of lane. And we're grinding. I mean

1029
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 1: it's we're trying every are So this is the idea

1030
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:09,239
Speaker 1: behind it, and then we'll move on and lindsay, I

1031
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:10,720
Speaker 1: cannot wait to get to know you. This is awesome

1032
00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:13,319
Speaker 1: that you're here. I know you have a crazy cool story. UM,

1033
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,440
Speaker 1: and just you're you're coming into studio at a really

1034
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,879
Speaker 1: awesome time UM for us because it's just uh, we're

1035
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:21,920
Speaker 1: excited to talk to you. But the UM, this is

1036
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:25,240
Speaker 1: the way that we're gonna raise We have asked each volunteer,

1037
00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:27,360
Speaker 1: if HU many Hope United, to do their own individual

1038
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:29,680
Speaker 1: fundraiser because we can't raise this alone right as a

1039
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,120
Speaker 1: as a group of people. We need everybody to start.

1040
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:35,120
Speaker 1: So uh, that's why the retreat happened two weeks ago,

1041
00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 1: was we asked everybody come and say, hey, this is

1042
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:39,759
Speaker 1: the deal, this is the issue, this is what's facing us.

1043
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 1: If you go back to your homes and your communities

1044
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 1: and take ownership in this, uh, do your own fundraisers

1045
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 1: that we think we could have over a hundred and

1046
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 1: fifty fundraisers going on that could raise two dollars each

1047
00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 1: that happens, that's three dollars that buys us the piece

1048
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 1: of land, and everybody has ownership in that. So this

1049
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:59,920
Speaker 1: is my fundraiser. This this this uh, this giveaway or

1050
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,200
Speaker 1: uh you know, bidding auction was my my way of

1051
00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:05,920
Speaker 1: raising funds and Lindsay was the one that contributed to it. Lindsay,

1052
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 1: thank you so much for coming out to l A again.

1054
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 1: was the final bid with a fun today? So it's

1055
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,840
Speaker 1: actually gonna be like you donate the money but you

1056
00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:23,359
Speaker 1: never really did, because it's gonna be worth it. I think,

1057
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 1: I hope. I think I hope. So so are you

1058

1062
00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:45,640

1063
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:50,160
Speaker 1: how to take this back because you know, I'm just thinking,

1064
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:53,359
Speaker 1: I'm like having this moment I backflashed or whatever. It's

1065
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:57,799
Speaker 1: called a flashback backflashback, flashback to this time. We were

1066
00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:59,839
Speaker 1: sitting around a campfire and he was trying to put

1067
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 1: to quila down my throat. Okay, and he knows that

1068
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 1: I can't drink tequila. I just tried to explain the

1069
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 1: one time I saw trouble in his eyes, and now

1070
00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 1: I feel so bad. It's okay, No, Benny, He's gonna

1071
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:15,960
Speaker 1: think about this for the rest of his life. It

1072
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:19,040
Speaker 1: definitely hit his soul. And he has the best soul

1073
00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:22,319
Speaker 1: of all time. Right. He does anything for anyone. He's

1074
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:25,960
Speaker 1: the biggest mushball. He's so sensitive and basically his whole

1075
00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:29,480
Speaker 1: existence is helping people. And here I am saying this

1076
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:31,840
Speaker 1: one time he had evil in his eye when he

1077
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:34,799
Speaker 1: tried to feed me tequila. No, I'm not mad at you.

1078

1099
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 1: forward stuff. I'm not sure you'll find out soon. I

1100
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:44,680
Speaker 1: was still can rocket pare leggings. I wouldn't get in

1101
00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 1: deep with her because this is sad, but I hear

1102
00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:51,280
Speaker 1: that you're going through a divorce, So I'm so sorry

1103
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:53,880
Speaker 1: about that. But did you think that maybe bidding this

1104
00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:56,759
Speaker 1: much on Ben and winning this contest would this would

1105
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:58,880
Speaker 1: become a date and then there could be some loves

1106
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,120
Speaker 1: that grew from this. Um, I don't know if I

1107
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:05,120
Speaker 1: thought about that far honest, Please now no. I mean

1108
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,880
Speaker 1: when you go through a divorce and you, um, you

1109
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:10,000
Speaker 1: really get to a place where you're ready to move on.

1110
00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:12,319
Speaker 1: I think you just really want self love more than

1111
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 1: like love with someone else, especially like having a four

1112
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:16,719
Speaker 1: year old. I think I really want to be a

1113
00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:18,879
Speaker 1: good role model to her and give her a good life.

1114
00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:21,640
Speaker 1: And so I think, um, it's really for me just

1115
00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 1: kind of pulling back from a lot of codependency and

1116
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:27,840
Speaker 1: focusing on me loving her, giving her a good life,

1117
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,680
Speaker 1: and knowing that Ben Higgins will be a great stepfather. Yeah,

1118
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:36,000
Speaker 1: have a great stepfather. I can read. Um, I'm really

1119
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,840
Speaker 1: good at reading the Uh. I get what you're saying. Uh.

1120
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:41,360
Speaker 1: You know, at this season of life, I don't know

1121
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:43,000
Speaker 1: how much you want to get into it and feel

1122
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 1: free to not answer fully. Um, it is that season

1123
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,160
Speaker 1: where just maybe life has taken a turn that you

1124
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,359
Speaker 1: never expected or foresaw, and so now you sit here

1125
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:55,440
Speaker 1: needing to kind of invest into yourself again. UM, what

1126
00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:56,719
Speaker 1: if some of your ways that you want to do that?

1127
00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 1: I mean, this is awesome. You come out to l A,

1128
00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:00,920
Speaker 1: you get into some good weather, We're gonna shop and

1129
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:03,360
Speaker 1: go to dinner, all that stuff, going to host a podcast.

1130
00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 1: I mean if this isn't you know, cathartic, I don't

1131
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:08,799
Speaker 1: know what is? Um. But then one other ways do

1132
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:11,359
Speaker 1: you see yourself kind of rebuilding yourself again? I think

1133
00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:14,240
Speaker 1: following your passions. I think a lot of my life was, UM,

1134
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:16,400
Speaker 1: my husband was in the military, and so a lot

1135
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:18,560
Speaker 1: of it was and I you know, I love our

1136
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:20,439
Speaker 1: military and I love what they do for us, UM,

1137
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:22,160
Speaker 1: but a lot of it was following him around and

1138
00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,120
Speaker 1: doing the things I needed to do so that we

1139
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:26,960
Speaker 1: could raise a family together. And and he had those

1140
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,440
Speaker 1: opportunities that he needed to fulfill in his career. And

1141
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 1: I think I kind of lost myself and the things

1142
00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,160
Speaker 1: that I'm passionate about. So I think a lot of

1143
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:35,360
Speaker 1: it is kind of throwing myself back into things that

1144
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:37,600
Speaker 1: I find important and things that I so I can

1145
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 1: find my own success and feel happiness and my success

1146
00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: and you know, show that to my daughter and be

1147
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,640
Speaker 1: able to be like, you know, like you can definitely

1148
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:46,640
Speaker 1: find your success at any time in your life, you know.

1149
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:49,360
Speaker 1: So I think that's a big part of it. Is

1150
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:51,360
Speaker 1: a first step is just kind of finding something you're

1151
00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 1: passionate about and enjoying that. Your daughter is four years old, Um,

1152
00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 1: she did not come out here with it. She's taking

1153
00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:03,240
Speaker 1: a little little great grandma. That's nice. I have Ella's

01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:56,920
Speaker 1: you may be wondering out there, actually, if you only

1210
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:00,240
Speaker 1: fourteen percent Italian, what is the rest of you? Okay, well,

1211
01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 1: here here's my breakdown. I am twenty seven point seven

1212
01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:10,480
Speaker 1: percent French and German, and then it's like astrict Netherlands,

1213
01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:13,640
Speaker 1: so that is my Dutch side. I knew that I

1214
01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:16,040
Speaker 1: was from the Netherlands, but I didn't know it was

1215
01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:23,400
Speaker 1: of French and German descent. Then it's ash Kenazi Jewish Oshkennazi,

1216
01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:27,440
Speaker 1: thank you Mark Oshkennazi Jewish, which is twenty four point

1217
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:31,600
Speaker 1: three percent. That's my grandmother from Lithuania, so that was expected.

1218
01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,920
Speaker 1: Then there's my fourteen percent Italian. Then here's something out

1219
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 1: of the blue British and Irish nuts, Iberian one point three,

1220
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:48,120
Speaker 1: Balkan point nine, broadly Northwestern European twelve percent, broadly Southern

1221
01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:53,520
Speaker 1: European five percent, and broadly European two percent, Western Asian

1222
01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:57,200
Speaker 1: and North African one. So I am just a mutt

1223
01:01:57,600 --> 01:02:00,919
Speaker 1: twenty three and me is named after the twenty three

1224
01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:04,640
Speaker 1: pairs of chromosomes in your DNA. Their service provides you

1225
01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:08,520
Speaker 1: with over seventy five genetic reports about your health. It's

1226
01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 1: not just your heritage, but can also tell you things

1227

1256
01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:44,440
Speaker 1: talked about a little bit last week, Lindsey, is um

1257
01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:46,800
Speaker 1: this idea of that you know a lot of people

1258
01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:48,640
Speaker 1: in the world right now are feeling lonely. It's a

1259
01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:52,320
Speaker 1: common it's a common feeling, right the loneliest aspect. Has

1260
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:54,480
Speaker 1: Has that been you know kind of has that came

1261
01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:57,200
Speaker 1: into your life here recently? Or are you still feeling

1262
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:00,400
Speaker 1: you know, pretty good? And is this part of this

1263
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:03,000
Speaker 1: self love stuff to bring to kind of show yourself

1264
01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:05,520
Speaker 1: that you aren't alone anymore? Or is it more just

1265
01:04:05,560 --> 01:04:07,440
Speaker 1: to kind of pick up the spirits. I think a

1266
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:10,280
Speaker 1: lot of Um, what I've noticed is there's, um, we

1267
01:04:10,320 --> 01:04:12,800
Speaker 1: live in this world where everyone kind of relies on

1268
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:16,160
Speaker 1: likes and you know, kind of almost like this infamy

1269
01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:18,320
Speaker 1: where they want people to know who they are based

1270
01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:20,720
Speaker 1: off a brand that they've created and not really who

1271
01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:22,920
Speaker 1: they are as a person. And so I think we

1272
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:26,000
Speaker 1: kind of like end up we're more lonely than ever

1273
01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:28,280
Speaker 1: our society at this point in time. And I've noticed that,

1274
01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,400
Speaker 1: and I think I'm trying to kind of learn how

1275
01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:35,280
Speaker 1: to be happy alone so that I can engage in

1276
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:38,360
Speaker 1: others and enjoy others truly, so where I'm not using

1277
01:04:38,360 --> 01:04:42,440
Speaker 1: them as an opportunity to feel some type of like

1278
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:44,680
Speaker 1: like selfishly, you know, like you hang out with people

1279
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:46,680
Speaker 1: sometimes selfishly because you're lonely. I want to hang out

1280
01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:49,520
Speaker 1: with people because I truly enjoyed our company and it's

1281
01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:52,520
Speaker 1: something that I want to pass my time life versus like,

1282
01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:54,720
Speaker 1: oh I'm so lonely I want it was like hit

1283
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:58,360
Speaker 1: someone up into something with them. That's interesting because last

1284
01:04:58,360 --> 01:05:01,040
Speaker 1: week Ben was talking about how he has this theory

1285
01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:05,400
Speaker 1: that people watch The Bachelor because they're in this state

1286
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,400
Speaker 1: of vulnerability and they're able to connect with them on

1287
01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:11,800
Speaker 1: a deeper level than up most other shows. So did

1288
01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:14,800
Speaker 1: you feel like watching The Bachelor you feel connected to

1289
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:21,480
Speaker 1: people such as Ben. Yeah, I think it's an kind

1290
01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:23,960
Speaker 1: of an escape. I think a lot of that, like that,

1291
01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:26,320
Speaker 1: the beauty of the Bachelor and kind of this like

1292
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 1: fantasy they create. I think a lot of people like

1293
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:30,680
Speaker 1: to escape in that and just kind of like, I mean,

1294
01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:33,040
Speaker 1: people love romance. Who doesn't love romance? You know, that's

1295
01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:37,440
Speaker 1: why Disney's made it so big? Um So, yeah, I

1296
01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:39,680
Speaker 1: think The Bachelor that kind of what it was. That's

1297
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:41,800
Speaker 1: kind of what it was for me, is it was,

1298
01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:43,320
Speaker 1: you know, a time in my life where I was,

1299
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:45,600
Speaker 1: you know, living on a base with you know, kind

1300
01:05:45,640 --> 01:05:48,320
Speaker 1: of like settled in in a in a very like

1301
01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:52,000
Speaker 1: complacent place in my life, and so The Bachelor was

1302
01:05:52,040 --> 01:05:53,840
Speaker 1: kind of like a getaway. Like watching it was kind

1303
01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:55,280
Speaker 1: of it was exciting to be able to pop it

1304
01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:58,200
Speaker 1: on and see everyone doing these exciting things and being

1305
01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:01,960
Speaker 1: swept away and having romantic more months. And I think that, Um,

1306
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:04,080
Speaker 1: I mean, most women enjoy that, and I'm sure there's

1307
01:06:04,080 --> 01:06:08,640
Speaker 1: a lot of men that enjoy watching that, in especially

1308
01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:11,200
Speaker 1: the recaps each week on the Almost Famous podcast. Um.

1309
01:06:12,840 --> 01:06:15,480
Speaker 1: You know, you know something that's really that I'm listening

1310
01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:18,400
Speaker 1: to Lindsay here, talk here, Lindsay. I'm gonna speak for

1311
01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:20,880
Speaker 1: you for a second. Um, but it's something I admire

1312
01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:24,280
Speaker 1: right now. Is everything she say makes complete sense. Right.

1313
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:26,400
Speaker 1: You know, we're going she's going through a tough time

1314
01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:28,840
Speaker 1: in life. Um, it's weird you're sitting right here as

1315
01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 1: I'm talking to you, but that's how podcasts work. He is.

1316
01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:33,439
Speaker 1: But she's going to do a tough time in life.

1317
01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:39,320
Speaker 1: She has a child, she's hurting, you know, personally, and

1318
01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:41,840
Speaker 1: she's rebuilding herself right now by doing these things that

1319
01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:44,680
Speaker 1: are self um loving and we'll talk about all day today.

1320
01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:47,320
Speaker 1: But she's doing it for her child, not for herself.

1321
01:06:47,360 --> 01:06:49,760
Speaker 1: You hear that, Like, you know, I want to offer

1322
01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:52,680
Speaker 1: this to my my my daughter, so that she sees success,

1323
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:56,040
Speaker 1: she sees confident, she seems a mother that's healthy and

1324
01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:59,600
Speaker 1: and and fulfilled. That's cool, Like, that's that's awesome. That

1325
01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:03,800
Speaker 1: that's shows a level of sacrifice and unselfishness that goes

1326
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:06,680
Speaker 1: far beyond um. Well, even a lot of people can intempt.

1327
01:07:06,720 --> 01:07:08,439
Speaker 1: And so I think, I mean, I don't I don't

1328
01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:10,480
Speaker 1: know you fully yet. We'll get to know each other

1329
01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:13,000
Speaker 1: really well throughout the day, but it sounds like the

1330
01:07:13,080 --> 01:07:17,040
Speaker 1: right path. Um, but you are a Bachelor fan, but

1331
01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:21,080
Speaker 1: you have an internet you started watching The Bachelor. Y Um,

1332
01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:23,480
Speaker 1: it's actually kind of funny, so, um, I think it

1333
01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:29,160
Speaker 1: was right after Um, so one of my friends we

1334
01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:30,840
Speaker 1: were kind of hanging out for the like the first

1335
01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:34,160
Speaker 1: time both our significanthers were deployed, so we started kind

1336
01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:36,240
Speaker 1: of like hanging out a little bit because we're waiting

1337
01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:39,280
Speaker 1: for them to come back, and we we saw an

1338
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:41,880
Speaker 1: ad for you on The Bachelor. It was like you

1339
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:46,120
Speaker 1: holding the rose perfect And Um, I actually never got

1340
01:07:46,160 --> 01:07:48,360
Speaker 1: into the batchelor. I swear I never. It was never

1341
01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:50,880
Speaker 1: something I really was interested in. I didn't watch a

1342
01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:53,200
Speaker 1: lot of reality TV, Like it's just something I never

1343
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:55,800
Speaker 1: got into. But then my friend and I looked at

1344
01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:58,120
Speaker 1: we're watching the ad and like do you see this?

1345
01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:00,520
Speaker 1: Like is this real? Do you think he's I don't

1346
01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:03,280
Speaker 1: think that's saying. They're debating me, like is he that

1347
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:05,800
Speaker 1: kind of a communicator? Like what is this? And you

1348
01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:09,680
Speaker 1: need to watch it to see if they right. We

1349
01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:11,920
Speaker 1: watched the whole season together, but I had no idea,

1350
01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:15,160
Speaker 1: like before that the season with Ben, I didn't watch

1351
01:08:15,160 --> 01:08:17,600
Speaker 1: Caitlin season or any of that, I went back and

1352
01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 1: watched it later, like like actually a few months ago,

1353
01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:23,360
Speaker 1: just randomly, ben No and I became like a fan

1354
01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:27,360
Speaker 1: girl over you. No. Um, when you did the sex

1355
01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:33,960
Speaker 1: talk episode of Caitlin's podcast podcast show, Yeah, that was good.

1356
01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:36,080
Speaker 1: When I did this, I dressed her up like an

1357
01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:37,840
Speaker 1: egg and I was a sperm and we met each

1358
01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:42,479
Speaker 1: other in the ovaries. Yes, well that wasn't all that

1359
01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:45,240
Speaker 1: wasn't all aired. But when you were like walking through

1360
01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 1: the class of students, like really interacting telling me in

1361
01:08:50,360 --> 01:08:54,000
Speaker 1: the most gentle way. My mom and I were rewounded

1362
01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:57,280
Speaker 1: and watched a couple of times, that really is Yeah,

1363
01:08:57,640 --> 01:08:59,680
Speaker 1: it was fun, you know, I got that. But that

1364
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:02,160
Speaker 1: was I had one up because I worked at a

1365
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:05,160
Speaker 1: youth center, so I was used to teaching sex. Said

1366
01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:08,800
Speaker 1: the like little like kids were that before, done that

1367
01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:10,840
Speaker 1: scenary because they give me props and they gave me

1368
01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:13,439
Speaker 1: a sperm in an egg and they're like, go make

1369
01:09:13,479 --> 01:09:16,320
Speaker 1: this thing work, and so I feel like I had

1370
01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:19,680
Speaker 1: a little practice before, and but I also enjoyed it. Um.

1371
01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:21,600
Speaker 1: I was so nervous. That was my very first like

1372
01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:25,720
Speaker 1: big date, and I killed it. I remember going on

1373
01:09:25,760 --> 01:09:27,680
Speaker 1: a walk by myself and just continue to talk to

1374
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:29,800
Speaker 1: myself like you can do this, you can do this,

1375
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:31,320
Speaker 1: you can do this, You've done it before, you can

1376
01:09:31,360 --> 01:09:34,840
Speaker 1: do this. I was so nervous. Um, but yeah, that

1377
01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:36,240
Speaker 1: was That was a cool momentau It gave me a

1378
01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:39,000
Speaker 1: little confidence. I actually walked out of the date with confidence,

1379
01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 1: and I hadn't walked out of that like most of

1380
01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:45,760
Speaker 1: those dating scenarios with like a personal confidence before. And

1381
01:09:45,760 --> 01:09:48,439
Speaker 1: it's a good feeling to like stick your chest up

1382
01:09:48,439 --> 01:09:50,360
Speaker 1: a little bit walking and be like you did all right,

1383
01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:53,520
Speaker 1: Oh you left as a front runner there with confidence

1384
01:09:53,560 --> 01:09:56,280
Speaker 1: and front runner status. Yeah, well I was. I got

1385
01:09:56,320 --> 01:10:02,479
Speaker 1: third Um. Yeah, that's funny that you say, like that

1386
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:04,599
Speaker 1: is he? Was he real? I wonder if the show

1387
01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:06,400
Speaker 1: I haven't asked him this when they did the perfect

1388
01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:10,520
Speaker 1: ben thing, if that's what they wanted the question to be, Um,

1389
01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:12,800
Speaker 1: like is this real? Like is he? I thought? I

1390
01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:15,120
Speaker 1: think there were setting me up for almost failure by

1391
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 1: the perfect bend, Like how do you how do you

1392
01:10:17,080 --> 01:10:21,920
Speaker 1: then like match that title? If that kind of except

1393
01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:23,519
Speaker 1: for when you said I love you to two girls

1394
01:10:23,560 --> 01:10:26,360
Speaker 1: that was the only downfall of the perfectness. Yeah, I

1395
01:10:26,360 --> 01:10:28,280
Speaker 1: think we've all been there though. I think we've all

1396
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:31,560
Speaker 1: been like I think we I think I can understand

1397
01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:34,360
Speaker 1: that that the ability to love like more than one person,

1398
01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:37,760
Speaker 1: not necessarily like um, romantically, but I think like when

1399
01:10:37,840 --> 01:10:40,320
Speaker 1: you open up to someone and there's an interpersonal connection there,

1400
01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:43,040
Speaker 1: I can see you feeling that strongly to want to

1401
01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:45,519
Speaker 1: express that to two people, Like I understood it. I

1402
01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:47,320
Speaker 1: didn't think you were a bad guy for doing that.

1403
01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 1: I didn't really. Yeah, I was like, like, that's that.

1404
01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:52,920
Speaker 1: It's like that's a bad situation for the women to

1405
01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:54,800
Speaker 1: be in. But I feel like I totally get it,

1406
01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:58,719
Speaker 1: and I probably wouldn't tell them that by loving two people,

1407
01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:01,519
Speaker 1: it's just the thought that they were one was going

1408
01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,439
Speaker 1: to be so much more let on. That's the only thing.

1409
01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:08,360
Speaker 1: But like, that's so that's so crazy to villainize you

1410
01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:10,519
Speaker 1: for which I don't think you ever were. But the

1411
01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:12,800
Speaker 1: only time you ever got a little flak was that moment.

1412
01:11:13,240 --> 01:11:15,000
Speaker 1: Do you think, what do you think about Colton? Then?

1413
01:11:15,040 --> 01:11:19,200
Speaker 1: I mean Colton, Colton's a sweet guy. Uh, he's he's

1414
01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:23,519
Speaker 1: Uh you have thoughts on Colton, don't you? Honest We've

1415
01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:25,599
Speaker 1: I mean, we've had everybody from Dean in here saying

1416
01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:28,080
Speaker 1: it's going to be a dumpster fire. That was hilarious.

1417
01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:33,519
Speaker 1: I actually saw that. I love Laurence interview. So tell

1418
01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:39,400
Speaker 1: us what are your thoughts on Colton? Um? My thought

1419
01:11:39,479 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 1: is he's not remotely ready as someone who has been

1420
01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:43,639
Speaker 1: at that point in my life. And I look back

1421
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:45,320
Speaker 1: on a nineteen year old Lindsay who got married, and

1422
01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:48,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh God, this guy is not ready at all. Six.

1423
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:51,080
Speaker 1: But it's not even the age, it's them. It's the maturity.

1424
01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:54,280
Speaker 1: Let it's the emotional get that a lot. And I

1425
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:56,760
Speaker 1: can in the way he and I get it, like

1426
01:11:56,840 --> 01:11:59,600
Speaker 1: he is like, you know, I kind of feel like

1427
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:01,880
Speaker 1: he's the was her child for the first bachelor that

1428
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:06,040
Speaker 1: hasn't lost his virginity before and and um so I

1429
01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:08,040
Speaker 1: I understand the appeal, and I get that he's like

1430
01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:10,160
Speaker 1: a really attractive guy. He's got a bunch of charity

1431
01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 1: work he does like he seems like a good person.

1432
01:12:12,720 --> 01:12:16,240
Speaker 1: But I just don't think emotionally he's ready at all

1433
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:18,720
Speaker 1: to be in a committed relationship where he's going to

1434
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:20,840
Speaker 1: get married. Like I could see him dating for a

1435
01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:22,639
Speaker 1: few years, maybe getting to know someone, but as far

1436
01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:25,880
Speaker 1: as like, um he him if someone was like is

1437
01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:27,760
Speaker 1: this guy like not and he wasn't even on the show.

1438
01:12:27,800 --> 01:12:28,880
Speaker 1: If they were like, do you think this guy is

1439
01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:30,519
Speaker 1: ready to get married? And say no, I don't. I

1440
01:12:30,520 --> 01:12:33,120
Speaker 1: don't personally don't think so. I wonder, Ashley, what do

1441
01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 1: you think she brings up a good point. I wonder

1442
01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:38,120
Speaker 1: if the show kind of like they were with me,

1443
01:12:38,240 --> 01:12:40,839
Speaker 1: but they're setting people up because everybody has that feeling.

1444
01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:43,120
Speaker 1: I mean, as a buddy of his, I have that

1445
01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:45,519
Speaker 1: feeling of like, is he really ready? Like I don't

1446
01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:47,519
Speaker 1: think he is. He's not even remotely ready from the

1447
01:12:47,560 --> 01:12:50,280
Speaker 1: last time that we saw him on Dating on Paradise

1448
01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:53,320
Speaker 1: to be engaged and to be a strong partner to

1449
01:12:53,360 --> 01:12:56,320
Speaker 1: somebody else. And I wonder if this show knew more

1450
01:12:56,360 --> 01:13:00,080
Speaker 1: about him than we do and that I do. And

1451
01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:02,479
Speaker 1: they said, yeah, everybody's gonna ask this question. They're going

1452
01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 1: to go into it expecting disappointment and expecting to finish

1453
01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:08,400
Speaker 1: the season being like, well, we told you so, And

1454
01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:11,599
Speaker 1: they know that his growth and his ability to surprise

1455
01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:14,360
Speaker 1: us far out weighs any of our understanding. Right now.

1456
01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:17,280
Speaker 1: I think that might be the case because what Colton

1457
01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:20,040
Speaker 1: and I have always bonded over in interviews is that

1458
01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:23,000
Speaker 1: we grew up so much from the show, and we

1459
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:26,720
Speaker 1: gained so much relationship relationship experience from the show, but

1460
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:29,320
Speaker 1: also just got to know ourselves so much to the

1461
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:32,040
Speaker 1: show that I think this third time around, he's gonna

1462
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:35,800
Speaker 1: show massive growth. Yeah, I actually I think you're in

1463
01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:37,840
Speaker 1: the right head spin. I think as a fan that's

1464
01:13:37,840 --> 01:13:40,760
Speaker 1: where I'm at. Like, I know, Shot, he's ready. Why

1465
01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:42,920
Speaker 1: would he be the Bachelor. There's so many better choices.

1466
01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:44,720
Speaker 1: There's guys that they're ready blah blah blah, but you

1467
01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:46,720
Speaker 1: never know when you're ready on it. You never know.

1468
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:50,000
Speaker 1: And I think that the show knew how ready he was.

1469
01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:51,920
Speaker 1: This is my I think they're they're they're doing the

1470
01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:57,439
Speaker 1: flipping room on us. Actually I have Colton is also

1471
01:13:57,600 --> 01:13:59,360
Speaker 1: much like me and like I don't think he has

1472
01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:02,120
Speaker 1: any design to day a round. I think he truly

1473
01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:04,000
Speaker 1: wants to beat with his person and just like live

1474
01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:06,559
Speaker 1: a nice, calm life with this person. I don't think

1475
01:14:06,560 --> 01:14:08,439
Speaker 1: he's the kind of guy who actually wants to go

1476
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:11,640
Speaker 1: and like go to a bar pick up chicks. No

1477
01:14:11,720 --> 01:14:14,800
Speaker 1: offense to Jason and Blake, but I think that they

1478
01:14:14,840 --> 01:14:17,800
Speaker 1: have that more in their soul than Colton does. Like

1479
01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:19,840
Speaker 1: they like to kind of play the field. It's kind

1480
01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:25,240
Speaker 1: of fun for them to live the Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1481
01:14:25,240 --> 01:14:26,920
Speaker 1: I mean he even clean up. He was such a

1482
01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:28,640
Speaker 1: good guy to Tea, even though you could tell that

1483
01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:30,439
Speaker 1: for him he was really torn, but it was really

1484
01:14:30,479 --> 01:14:33,080
Speaker 1: about making Tea happy. Yeah, he's a good guy. I

1485
01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:36,080
Speaker 1: can I mean, I can see that aspect that he's

1486
01:14:36,080 --> 01:14:39,040
Speaker 1: a good person. I just think that I think he

1487
01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:40,920
Speaker 1: has room to grow as a person before he finds

1488
01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:43,439
Speaker 1: his happy you know, before he finds this perfect person.

1489
01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:45,880
Speaker 1: I think he needs to like maybe grow a little

1490
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:48,360
Speaker 1: bit emotionally, and like I understand. I remember the first

1491
01:14:48,400 --> 01:14:51,880
Speaker 1: time this is funny. Remember the first time, um I

1492
01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 1: told Colton I'm up for dinner. Right after got off

1493
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:56,280
Speaker 1: the back streap. We're sitting at a restaurant in Denver

1494
01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:59,720
Speaker 1: called Senior Bear, and I had never met him. The

1495
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:01,160
Speaker 1: show had reached out and said, hey, can you reach

1496
01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:02,679
Speaker 1: out to this cool and guys and a really good guy.

1497
01:15:02,760 --> 01:15:04,519
Speaker 1: But he's super hurt and he has a lot of stuff,

1498
01:15:04,520 --> 01:15:05,920
Speaker 1: like he needs a mature a little bit when you

1499
01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:07,800
Speaker 1: walk with him through some stuff. I said, yeah, of course,

1500
01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:09,920
Speaker 1: So I made up for him, and like, you know,

1501
01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:12,360
Speaker 1: it's two guys hanging out who don't know each other.

1502
01:15:12,360 --> 01:15:13,960
Speaker 1: It's a little awkward, but it was like easy. We

1503
01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:16,400
Speaker 1: had something common to share and talk about. What do

1504
01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:17,760
Speaker 1: you want to drink? He's like, oh, man, I don't

1505
01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:20,120
Speaker 1: really drink that much. I was like, okay, cool. It's like, well,

1506
01:15:20,920 --> 01:15:23,760
Speaker 1: I'll have a margarita. He's like, I'll have a drink.

1507
01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:25,759
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, what do you want. He's like cingria.

1508
01:15:25,880 --> 01:15:29,439
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, you don't drink that. We're just

1509
01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:32,519
Speaker 1: kicking in. He's so like, He's just what my point was,

1510
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:35,439
Speaker 1: as you're saying that Blake and Jason are having fun

1511
01:15:35,479 --> 01:15:37,120
Speaker 1: with this, They're they're able to go out to these

1512
01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:39,000
Speaker 1: like clubs and do these appearances and have a really

1513
01:15:39,040 --> 01:15:42,840
Speaker 1: good time. That would have been cool and cool. I've

1514
01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:44,960
Speaker 1: never done it, So if he wasn't a Bachelor, I

1515
01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:46,599
Speaker 1: think he would have just kind of faded out here.

1516
01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:49,320
Speaker 1: But because he is, I think he's gonna pleasantly surprise us.

1517
01:15:49,320 --> 01:15:50,920
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna watch this season and be like,

1518
01:15:50,960 --> 01:15:53,639
Speaker 1: I get him now, I understand him now, and I

1519
01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:56,240
Speaker 1: personally am excited to see him kind of win over

1520
01:15:57,200 --> 01:15:59,400
Speaker 1: the hearts because I think he has the most possible,

1521
01:15:59,479 --> 01:16:01,760
Speaker 1: like the most between to do that. Um, and I

1522
01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:05,519
Speaker 1: think because the show knows how fragile this season is.

1523
01:16:05,560 --> 01:16:09,920
Speaker 1: If if they don't get people within two episodes, they're done. Um,

1524
01:16:09,920 --> 01:16:11,400
Speaker 1: so I think in the first episode we will see

1525
01:16:11,400 --> 01:16:14,720
Speaker 1: Colton do incredible things. Hey, Lindsey, we've got a big

1526
01:16:14,760 --> 01:16:17,599
Speaker 1: day ahead of us. Uh, We've got to go, uh

1527
01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:19,680
Speaker 1: have a really good time. I've never been to the

1528
01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:23,880
Speaker 1: Palisades and so We're gonna go meet up with Carbon

1529
01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:26,960
Speaker 1: thirty eight in the Little Market with Lauren Conrad. H

1530
01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:30,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna go to lunch, um and uh, just take

1531
01:16:30,240 --> 01:16:32,080
Speaker 1: a trip around l A. Cannot wait to hang out

01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:42,080
Speaker 1: love you. I love you know. I love you like

1535
01:16:42,120 --> 01:16:44,240
Speaker 1: I need you to know that. I know I need

1536
01:16:44,280 --> 01:16:46,960
Speaker 1: you to know that. It was just a stupid comment

1537
01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:50,840
Speaker 1: coming from one flashback. Actually, if here's the thing, there's

1538
01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:53,400
Speaker 1: a difference between being evil, which you are not in

1539
01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:57,240
Speaker 1: liking to stir up trouble. Definitely sorry about the word choice.

1540
01:16:57,240 --> 01:16:59,360
Speaker 1: It's stirring up trouble that you have in your eyes.

1541
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:03,360
Speaker 1: You have talked to me every week for the last

1542
01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:06,000
Speaker 1: year and a half I think at this point if

1543
01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:09,360
Speaker 1: you didn't dislike me a little bit, Oh my god,

1544
01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:12,559
Speaker 1: So what's the dislike about me? Please be honest? Actually,

1545
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:14,679
Speaker 1: you know what, you know, what I honestly dislike most

1546
01:17:14,720 --> 01:17:19,040
Speaker 1: about you, um is is really the fact that I

1547
01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:21,360
Speaker 1: kind of enjoyed the Ashley that would come in here

1548
01:17:21,360 --> 01:17:23,479
Speaker 1: and be super emotional. I don't like that you're not

1549
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:26,559
Speaker 1: as emotional anymore. I missed the emotional. Actually the what

1550
01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:29,320
Speaker 1: I missed your tears a little bit. Yeah, that's okay, tears.

1551
01:17:29,479 --> 01:17:33,040
Speaker 1: Actually I would walk in here and like, she's doing

1552
01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:34,680
Speaker 1: exactly what I want to do. I just can't do

1553
01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:38,200
Speaker 1: it the same way. Really, So that's actually an insecurity

1554
01:17:38,280 --> 01:17:41,040
Speaker 1: of mine right now, because on my I don't get

1555
01:17:41,040 --> 01:17:42,840
Speaker 1: a podcast, which is just like girl talk. You know,

1556
01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:45,920
Speaker 1: a lot of the girls right into my Facebook message

1557
01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:48,759
Speaker 1: boards and they'll be like, I don't relate to her anymore,

1558
01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:53,599
Speaker 1: she's too happy. Like that makes me sad that I'm

1559
01:17:53,640 --> 01:17:57,120
Speaker 1: not as relatable anymore. No, you're relatable. I just missed.

1560
01:17:57,520 --> 01:18:00,679
Speaker 1: I just always I think what I enjoyed. I enjoy

1561
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:03,679
Speaker 1: a lot more of of you now because you're happy,

1562
01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:07,120
Speaker 1: you're confident, you're wise, your thoughts, you enjoy me more now,

1563
01:18:07,160 --> 01:18:08,559
Speaker 1: but you just so that you miss them. No, no no, no,

1564
01:18:08,720 --> 01:18:10,960
Speaker 1: what I miss is coming in here never knowing what

1565
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:13,320
Speaker 1: I was going to get, like never knowing if Ashley

1566
01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:16,160
Speaker 1: had a blind date the night before that you're gonna

1567
01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:18,160
Speaker 1: like that you thought was the one for two hours

1568
01:18:18,160 --> 01:18:19,920
Speaker 1: and in the third hour he told you he wasn't,

1569
01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:24,719
