Speaker 1: so glad you're here. It's always nice. Feel like you've

5
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: been here a lot lately. Yeah, it's Ellie's become a

6
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: second home. I was actually asked about my buddy the

7
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: other day when I was going to move out here.

8
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 1: I might say, well, that time was about three years ago,

9
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:24,920
Speaker 1: and I think at this point it's a little late.

10
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: That's like Jared, Jared wishes he were to move out

11
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 1: three years ago. That's a question I've had about Jared.

12
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 1: So when Jared moved remember talking about this on the podcast,

13
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 1: it was a big deal for him. He wanted to

14
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: stay in Providence. Oh yeah, how is he liking l

15
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: A now? He doesn't like l A at all, And

16
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: all the sports happening right now is making him hate

17
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 1: it even hard. Boston. He couldn't have He couldn't have

18
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: rooted against the Dodgers any harder. He was going to

19
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: root against them either way. But then, of course with

20
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: the Red Sox playing, it was even more like he

21
00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: wanted the Red Sox to win. Just as much as

22
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: he wanted the doctor to lose. Like, that's how much

23
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: he hates l A. He likes to pretend like he

24
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,759
Speaker 1: doesn't and then like he'll be like, uh no, at

25
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: least fine. You'll be like you hate all it, and

26
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 1: then he'll be like, no, it's fine. It's like the

27
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: weather is nice. I'm like, you can't find one thing

28
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: you like other than the weather, and then you can

29
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: played about that half the time because it's not cold

30
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: enough for the fall, you don't feel the holidays and

31
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: all that. So we just have a five year plan.

32
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: We say that we're gonna be here at least part time,

33
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: like have a place here for five years and then

34
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: at like thirty five for me, and then we'll probably

35
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: move to Rhode Island. I do love Rhode Island. It's

36
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: so nice. It's so cozy. It's like the perfect little

37
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: East coast, you know, on the water field. It's very romantic. Actually,

38
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: you and Jared are living together. Correct, Yes, that's amazing.

39
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: But Jared also like he he wanted to move to

40
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: l A. He he thinks he should have moved to

41
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: l A three years ago because of the opportunity, because

42
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: he feels like he's kind of delayed on it compared

43
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: to me, But he also loves his little comfort zone,

44
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 1: like Jared defines the person who you know that that

45
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: I'm being very inarticulate, but you know that diagram that says,

46
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: like the magic happens out here. You know, there's like

47
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: a picture of your comfort zone, and the magic never

48
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 1: happens in your comfort zone. He loves being in his

49
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: comfort zone, and I'm like Jared, like one of the

50
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: things that he loves about me the most is that

51
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: I pushed him to get out of it, and it's

52
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: what I can imagine that that is. So we haven't

53
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: talked about this in a while. When you first announced

54
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: your engagement, UM, people were thrilled obviously about it, and

55
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: you get a lot of attention immediately. Do you feel

56
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: like that attention is calming down. Do you feel like

57
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: it's now kind of settling out where you guys can

58
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: kind of grasp what this relationship is gonna look like.

59
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: Are you guys just getting hounded everywhere? No, it's got

60
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: a lot calmer, especially in the past month. I feel

61
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: like this weekend was my first weekend here in l

62
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: A where we could actually hang out on the couch

63
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: and we had nothing to do. Like, I was like,

64
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: is there anything you can do on the computer? Like

65
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: I almost felt lost because there was actually no job

66
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: for me to do on Saturday. I was like, I

67
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: have nine hours to do nothing. It's kind of awesome.

68
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,399
Speaker 1: But then I also kind of freak out the same

69
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: time because what we do is so fleeting. Whenever I

70
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: have a moment to breathe, that kind of freaks me out.

71
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, no, is this moment of breath gonna

72
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: last too long? That's interesting, right, there's a good statement.

73
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: Is that moment of breath gonna last too long? Are

74
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 1: you ready for it to go away? No? Not yet,

75
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: but I think in five years yes. So that's why

76
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: we say in five years, I think I'll be over.

77
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: Like my intention always was, you know, I went to

78
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: I got my masters in broadcasting because this is what

79
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: I wanted to do. But I think come thirty five,

80
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: it'll be out of my system and I want to

81
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: just concentrate on being a mom. Yeah, isn't it crazy?

82
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: I think this this whole thing. I mean, we were

83
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: just talking to Easton. I was talking to a little

84
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: bit ago. He's just starting to watch my season The

85
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: Bachelor he's never watching before. The very first comment was

86
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: your hair is different back then. I've gotten older Easton,

87
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: But you know, it's so crazy to look back on

88
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: that season of life and almost from me feel like

89
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: I don't remember it. I think if I were to

90
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: watch my season again, um, it would almost feel like

91
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: I'm not watching myself. But you know, Almost Famous has

92
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: done great, and I think this has legs. I think

93
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 1: we'll be around for a long time. But I also

94
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: think that all the other stuff, the ancillary stuffs of

95
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: stuff that kind of comes on the side, are getting invited,

96
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: like that's gonna go away. And I've almost thought to

97
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: the point where I don't know if I'm ready, but

98
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: I feel like I am. Like I'm tired. For the

99
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: first time this weekend, I looked at my buddy and said,

100
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 1: I'm I'm really tired, like and not just like I

101
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: need to sleep for twenty four hours. It's like this, this,

102
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: this needs to come to an end. That was kind

103
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: of me. At the end of August, I felt really

104
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: burnt out because I was doing like five Bachelor recaps

105
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 1: all week and I felt like every time like everything

106
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: was done, it would just restart. Again the next step,

107
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: like all of a sudden, there was another influx of it.

108
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 1: But I think I want to do something in this

109
00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: capacity and this broadcast capacity, like for all long time,

110
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 1: beyond five years. But I feel like I'd like to

111
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: like switch gears to it not being my focus and

112
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,239
Speaker 1: from years, well, we've done great, Ash, you've done awesome

113
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: and almost femous on for a long time. You had

114
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: a weekend, sit on your couch, do nothing, hang out

115
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: and relax. I wonder if you're smart enough for on

130
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 1: in the world named Corey Big Reader. Huge reader listens

131
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: to his books. So when he says, Hey, what are

132
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: you reading right now? I always ask him what is

133
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 1: he listening to? Um? But he is one of the

Speaker 1: most educated, brilliant, in touch people I know. And it's

135
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,680

00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: as deadly as smoking fifteen cigarettes a day, you are

156
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: thirty two percent more likely to suffer from heart disease

157
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: when you associate yourself with the feeling of loneliness. But important,

158
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: loneliness is different than spending time alone. Define loneliness. You

159
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: know what also makes people feel lonely? You millennial influencers?

160
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: What Social Instagram, social media? It's really people. The largest

161
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: companies in the world to day are built on trying

162
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: to connect us. Yet for some reason, in this digital age,

163
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 1: we still feel a lack of connection. Anyways, I we

164
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: spoke this weekend at a retreat I shared and I

165
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: was kind of doing my research because my topic was

166
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: on loneliness, and I found all this stuff out and

167
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: I was like, Wow, I could smoke fifteen secrets today

168
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: and just be as healthy as if I was lonely. Anyways, Hey,

259
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: So it's in an interesting week. I did. They took me.

260
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: We were going to someplace tonight to eat wings. Um,

261
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 1: but I can't remember what the name before. But the

262
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: hype is real. The hype is real. The wings there

263
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: are incredible. I'm not gonna really good. Do you like

264
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: to dip in rams or blue cheese? Because apparently in

265
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 1: Buffalo they only do blue cheese and I'm not okay

266
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: with that. I'm not either, I'll be honest. Random question, Blake,

267
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: would you go on Paradise? Who go back for the show?

268
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: When I first got off the show, I was like,

269
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: we'll not. First off, when I first found out I

270
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: wasn gonna be the bastard, you know, I obviously got

271
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: asked that a lot. And yeah, at first I was like,

272
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: for sure, absolutely, you know, I was giving up two single,

273
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: I was giving me the opportunity, um, and the timing

274
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 1: was writing all that, you know, I was definitely fiter.

275
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: It's uh. And now I'm going back and forth, you know.

276
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 1: I just it scares me to think, you know, put

277
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 1: myself pack out there on television again. Uh, you know.

278
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: And now I almost scared that I know too much almost,

279
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 1: you know. And I'm said that it would be hard

280
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: for me to not be worried about editing, And like,

281
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: I'm so happy that I went into that. I didn't

282
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 1: know what to expect, didn't know what I was getting

283
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: myself into. I'm so happy I did that. Now I

284
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: feel like I do know what I'd be getting myself

285
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 1: into if I went into Paradise. So it kind of

286
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: scares me a little bit. But actually I want to

287
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: hear from you though, was the idea of knowing too much? Right?

288
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: I think you know what you know, you know you're

289
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 1: you're taking a risk. But again, I I still blake.

290
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if for me says I still stick

291
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: to there is I've never watched this season where anything's

292
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 1: happened completely different than what it happened on the show,

293
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: so that edding me never was like is a fear

294
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 1: because I know people are going to be portrayed pretty

295
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: accurate to who who they were and how they where

296
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: as a person. Ashley, how do you respond to knowing

297
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: too much? Was that hard for you? You've been? I

298
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: mean you've done Paradise over over and over over and over.

299
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: I did over once. Oh she did over and over

300
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: over again. Um, I knew too much starting my third season.

301
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: So I'm pretty sure you're safe to go do it

302
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: one more time? One more time. Okay. The only time

303
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 1: where I thought it was totally different than uh what

304
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: actually went down was that their time to really um.

305
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 1: But I honestly, I think a lot of it will

306
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: do to UM. When I watched Colden season, if there's

307
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: you know some girl I think that I really get

308
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: along with. They can grow up connection with I think

309
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: you know that there there would be something I definitely

310
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: would give a shot. But if I kind of watched

311
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 1: the season and I'm like, you know, I don't really

312
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: think anybody that I think match meat, and I don't

313
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: know if I do it or not. Are tying to

314
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: watch Colden season? Yeah? Yeah, oh yeah, I'm definitely gonna

315
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: go season. Going to be jealous. I don't jealous to

316
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: the right word, but I mean actually a little bit

317
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: because all these in Criple places after they thought too

318
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: so a little jealous of that and they went to Denver.

319
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 1: They were in Denver, Yes, they were. They were definitely

320
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: in Denver. Blake, Um, question for you, since coming off

321
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: the show, you've been on this wild ride. You thought

322
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 1: you might be the bachelor, you weren't. You were single

323
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: for a while. Then, like you said, you've you started

324
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: to tip your toe back in the dating world. What

325
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: has been the best part for you about this news

326
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: like season of life? The question I was gonna ask

327
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: us the worst part I just trying to get dirt

328
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 1: on you, Blake, just trying to talk here. No, no, Um,

329
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: I would stay honestly, Um, it's totally the friendship that

330
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: I've made after I mean, whether the woul chase better

331
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: be with you guys. You know the people that I've met,

332
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: everybody has been so incredibly nice and so'll be welcoming um.

333
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 1: And it's just like it's crazy, how you know, the

334
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: experience that we go through together, it really you know,

335
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 1: brings us, kidding, bonds us because there's not you know,

336
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: such a unique experience that we have can really relate to,

337
00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 1: and so we can relate to well with each other.

338
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 1: And so that's why coming out of this like these

339
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: these cool trips are off them, but it comes down

340
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,639
Speaker 1: there absolutely, I would agree. Yeah, the lasting friendships. I

341
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: have one last story before before we let you go.

342
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: I know that you have a game to get to

343
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: and tables to jump off over. Whatever I'm up through.

344
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 1: Make sure you tell Dean and Jason that the almost

345
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: Famous podcast had a load to you. So the other day,

346
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: actually listen this. I'm sitting in the gym twenty four

347
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 1: Hour Fitness on thirty eight Street in Denver, Colorado. Oh wow,

348
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 1: wait to tell people where your work out? Yeah, well

349
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 1: come on, yeah, I'm I'm doing some shoulder presses and

350
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 1: I mean I'm feeling good like I'm and they're not

351
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: just a little bit amount of weight, like I'm lifting

352
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: a lot of weight. Ashley very impressed myself. I get

353
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 1: a tap on my shoulder. Guess who is? It's Blake's

354
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 1: at the same gym I do, and had no clue.

355
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 1: And so then I just started watching him right, because

356
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 1: Blake's just a very in shape man, and he had

357
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: commented at one point I need to work on my traps,

358
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: and so I was like, well, how is he working

359
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: on his trap? You know, it's very sensitive about that.

360
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 1: So he showed me his ad work out, Blake. I've

361
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: been taking that ball that you you show me, putting

362
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 1: it between my legs and lifting it up and then

363
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: catching above my head and dipping backwards. I'm starting to

364
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: see the V. Y are those the sex lines? Yeah,

365
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: that's what those? He told me. He I said, like,

366
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: if you could give me one piece of advice for

367
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: working out, like one exercise is you look at my

368
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 1: body and you're like, Ben, you need help. He's like, well,

369
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 1: here's the thing, man, Take this ball, put it between

370
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: your legs and lift it up over your head and

371
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 1: you'll start to see the V. And so what I

372
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: took that is he's saying my core needs a little help.

373
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you I've been doing it every day

374
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 1: consistently because i want to be like Blake and I'm

00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: how crazy this bill is. I don't care to be honest. Yeah,

Speaker 1: we arrested. Tell Jason he's being rude for not inviting

390
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 1: Jared to this, Okay, and make sure he knows that

391
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: he's rude for not inviting me to this. To just

392
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 1: make sure he's in general okay, make sure he feels

393
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 1: really small to say, all right, bye, okay, thank you. Ben.

394
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: Have you ever ordered from Thrive? I have, Yeah, showed

395
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: up real fast. It's the best. It's healthy, like almost

396
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: everything I think is organic, it's non GMO, and it

397
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: is specific towards like whatever you're weird diet is like

398
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily have a weird diet, but if I

399
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 1: wanted to be vegan or gluten free or paleo, they

400
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: have specific item lists for people who are on those diets.

401
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: It's super easy to navigate the site to like that.

402
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: I wanted to get you guys some presents, so I

403
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 1: went on Thrive the other night and picked out things

404
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: that I thought you would love. And I knew actually

405
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: likes chocolate, and I knew Jared does too. I actually chocolate. Okay,

406
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 1: So I got you the Justin's Milk chocolate peanut butter cups.

407
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,880
Speaker 1: And I happen to know everybody's favorite, so that's one

408
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 1: of Jared's. And then Ben, I ordered for you and

409
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 1: it's all like organic, so you don't have to worry

410
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: about it. You know what's good. So I ordered for you.

411
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 1: I thought maybe on your flight you could have the

412
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: Antie's Um snack mix. So it has like the little

413
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: cheddar things, a little pretzels, little crackers. And then I

414
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: ordered you crackers, and then I just crackers, and I

415
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: got selfish and ordered my niece a little lunch backpack.

416
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: You guys, everything you can order toys. You don't have

417
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 1: to worry about kids putt stuff in their mouth. Like

418
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: I was like losing my mind. It's over this website. Well,

419
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,040
Speaker 1: and then I got you a loof of sponge for

420
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 1: the shower. You could have nice skin because he's so

421
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 1: into a skin. Yeah, I need to loot for to

422
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 1: multiple reasons. We yes, that's what's about Thrive. It's not

423
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: just food. It's also baby products, beauty things, things around

424
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 1: the house. They have cleaning supplies that are non toxic

425
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: that aren't going to give your house that chemical smell.

426
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,239
Speaker 1: That's one of the things that I always order from them.

427
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: They have the best pasta sauce. U think it would

428
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: be like crazy expensive. It's not. No, that's the thing

429
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: about it. It's not. It's not less than other places.

430
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 1: It's actually always below traditional retail prices. It's basically the

431
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 1: response to Whole Foods, but it's online and it's so

432
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: much cheaper than Hoole Foods. I can't even step foot

433
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: into Whole Foods without spending like twenty just to walk in.

434
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 1: You know, I got boxes full of stuff for under

435
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: eight It's nuts. My favorite thing, I have to say,

436
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: my absolute favorite item on Thrive Market is granola. These

437
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,640
Speaker 1: kind granola bars. It tastes like almond joys they are.

438
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 1: It's the almond and chocolate it kind bar and I'm

439
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 1: addicted for life. All packaging boxes and inserts are made

440
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 1: from recycled paper. Everything's recycled. There's zero waste. I just

441
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: I just watch this documentary on waste and now I'm

442
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,240

00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: not even kidding. It's so good. Actually that brings up

463
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 1: I just kind of skipped through that. I was I

464
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,640
Speaker 1: was talking about thrive Market. Did you know if we

465
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,400
Speaker 1: were talking about had a speech impediment? I was held back. Yes,

466
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 1: we have talked about that. We have talked about that.

467
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:33,479
Speaker 1: I feel like I have a speech impediment every day

468
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: of my life. Yeah, I really did. It was my

469
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,439
Speaker 1: rs and and so sometimes it's coming back a little bit.

470
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I'm getting lazy. I

471
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: need to go back to a little like speech therapy.

472
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 1: I really do. I've I've noticed even this weekend when

473
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: I spoke at this retreat. It was a two day

474
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: full retreat where twenty five people spent time in winter Park,

475
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 1: both part of the Generous and Humanitian Hope team. And

476
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,120
Speaker 1: I was doing something like I was just talking a lot,

477
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: and by the end of the weekend, I was just

478
00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 1: tripping over my words. Interesting, I feel like I tripped

479
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: my words all the time. It's one of my biggest insecurities,

480
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 1: especially since I have to talk on a mic so

481
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 1: often that if I'm not talking just perfectly, I'm like, Oh,

482
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: there's something wrong with your brain. I feel like I

483
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: have a weird brain connection. But I feel like there's

484
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 1: no there's no connection between my left and my right brain.

485
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: What does that mean? You know how? Like there's the

486
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 1: right creative brain and then there's like the left analytical brain.

487
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 1: I feel like there's no connection between them. Like you

488
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,919
Speaker 1: just feel like a little disconnected right now. I always

489
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: feel this disconnect. I get it. I mean, do you

490
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: get it? No? No, I do I get it. I

491
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 1: I mean I undred percent get it. I just I'm

492
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: I'm tired. I think I think that's my excuse. I

493
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: really am tired. Hey, I want to go back to

494
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: um some of this stuff we talked about earlier on loneliness. Okay, UM,

495
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:44,879
Speaker 1: I want to hear your thoughts on this. Okay, So

496
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:46,640
Speaker 1: here's some of the stats if anybody out there that's

497
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: feeling lonely. Last week we were able to talk to

498
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 1: Ashley Spivy about a topic that is is incredibly important

499
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: to speak on that great feedback. Everybody really liked that podcast.

500
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 1: I think our emails and our listeners have responded well.

501
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: I think actually feels loved and supported, which is really

502
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 1: one of the most important things here is that anybody,

503
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,640
Speaker 1: um that is has has been a victim of sexual

504
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: assault feels love and supported and not alone. So let's

505
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 1: move into the loneliness category. Um. Since okay, so the

506
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 1: New York Times came out with an article called how

507
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,439
Speaker 1: social isolation is Killing Us. This article kind of sparked

508
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 1: my interest to dig a little deeper, um and talk

509
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 1: about this amongst the group this weekend. Since the nineteen eighties,

510
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: isn't that the percentage of American adults who say they're

511
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:37,199
Speaker 1: lonely has doubled from twenty to so this is just

512
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 1: people saying they feel in their heart that the sense

513
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 1: of loneliness, they feel alone. And as I mentioned earlier,

514
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:48,919
Speaker 1: that isolation, that loneliness feeling. When you do feel that,

515
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: you're at more likely to suffer from heart disease. So

516
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: what this told me and what my my topic was

517
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 1: obviously for the retreat was, I don't care if you

518
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: if you believe in a god, you believe in a

519
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 1: creator or not. Just just as humans, no matter what,

520
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: if we just biologically as humans, we are not meant

521
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,360
Speaker 1: to be alone because our bodies, right, our bodies don't

522
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 1: respond to alone. This we are tribal, we we we

523
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: were meant to be together and connected. And I wonder

524
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: for anybody out there listening, is if maybe last week

525
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 1: listen to the podcast with actually Spivy and her saying,

526
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 1: you know, she was she was, she was hurting, she

527
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:26,959
Speaker 1: didn't know how to talk to you know, she couldn't

528
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: even hardly talk to her mom, that that feeling of aloneness.

529
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 1: Wonder if anybody out there is feeling alone, it has

530
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 1: to I Americans claim to totally. Well, there's a big

531
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: difference between you know, feeling lonely and having people around

532
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: you because you can have a lot of people around you,

533
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: but you still feel lonely. So that's what I think.

534
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 1: It's a connection. I feel like if you feel like

535
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: people are understanding and connecting with you, you won't feel lonely.

536
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 1: But if you're in a room and you feel like

537
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,479
Speaker 1: you're not really expressing yourself and you're not being your

538
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,360
Speaker 1: true self around them, then you're probably feeling lonely. Here's

539
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: how we tie back into the show or just kind

540
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: of the world we're living with social media and this

541
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 1: podcast or whatever. I think people enjoy watching The Bachelor

542
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 1: and Bachelor at because the characters on the show are

543
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: living a real life. They're being themselves, and I'm thinking

544
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,919
Speaker 1: they're most vulnerable, the most vulnerable. So I think as

545
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 1: people watch it, they can say, while these people who

546
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: are on TV, who are supposed to have it all

547
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,880
Speaker 1: together don't, And as a result, I can relate and

548
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: and I feel a little less alone. Way I watch

549
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: the show because I can live vicariously through these figures

550
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,640
Speaker 1: or these characters and go, oh, yeah, I feel that too.

551
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: I'm hurting too. I've been I've been hurt in past relationships.

552
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 1: I've lacked love, I've lacked connection. I'm desiring a partner

553
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 1: whatever that is. You know that long list that we

554
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 1: see kind of season over season. I wonder, and I

555
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,479
Speaker 1: want to hear your thoughts if that's the reason why

556
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: The Bachelor has consistently stayed so prevalent in pop culture,

557
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: because people go, I care for it because it's my

558
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,880
Speaker 1: two hours or now like thirty hours each I can

559
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 1: watch to where I no longer feel alone. I think

560
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,400
Speaker 1: you have a point there. I would have never thought

561
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 1: of it like that, but you're right, because it just

562
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 1: strips us of all of like the filters that we

563
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:10,120
Speaker 1: normally put on ourselves, you know, normally, you know, the producers,

564
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,679
Speaker 1: and like the whole show concept itself just kind of

565
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 1: strips you and makes you the most vulnerable possible. That

566
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: people are seeing these people who are expressing the same

567
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 1: concerns as they do, but don't always feel as comfortable

568
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: expressing them, and then they therefore connect um to the

569
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 1: characters of the sea on the show. I will tell

570
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 1: you this, actually, Um, I think you just said it perfect.

571
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 1: And I think this next season with Colton, from what

572
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 1: I know, is going to be a season where a

573
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: lot of people watch and they start to connect with

574
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 1: the characters, maybe more than they ever have. I agree,

575
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: maybe he really allows himself to get there, and I

576
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: think we're going to see him grow as a person. Um.

577
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: I'd like to think that I tried to do it

578
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: in my most authentic, genuine, like most vulnerable way. I

579
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: don't know if I did or not totally did. I

580
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: don't know, but I know he is. I really know

581
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 1: he's going to I know this show is going to

582
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 1: break him. I know it's gonna break him. But I

583
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 1: also think we're gonna see him built back up all

584
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: in this you know episodes. I think so too. He's

585
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: down to his top four now, which is crazy. Four

586
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: years ago. I think I was eliminated on crystals this season,

587
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: like the twenty three of October. It's crazy how much

588
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: how many girls are eliminated from like that toy that's

589
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 1: just like the killing point. Yeah. It goes from the

590
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: girls who, like you thought were cute and the fun

591
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: to be around, to like the four that you think

592
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: could be marriage material. Yeah, the four that dressed the best. Astley,

593
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 1: speaking of dressing the best, tell us about Lette between

594
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: before we bring one of our favorite recurring guests analyse

595
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,959
Speaker 1: what Totes is an amazing company they can have. They

596
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: have clothes that can fit you better than any other retailers.

597
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: They take the stress out of getting dressed. They get

598
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 1: the right styles in the right sizes delivered to you

599
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: to your door, and when you're done, you just send

600
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: it back. Takes your measurements and ratings and learns not

601
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 1: just about your size, but the nuances about how you

602
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: want your clothes to fit. Women actually return forty to

603
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: seven percent of the clothing that they buy, and Letto

604
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: created their own universal sizing system to fit you across

605
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 1: all brands. That means that Litote measures pieces by brand,

606
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: with their fit and their seamstress teams, they're gonna match

607
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 1: to your universal and specific sizing. Okay, So basically that

608
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,760

Speaker 1: emotional roads couple of months. Yeah, you've been through a lot. Yeah, Yeah,

635
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: it's been kind of crazy. Um. I feel like like

636
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 1: the breakup happened two weeks creator airs relived it. It

637
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: was a month of just like of of the breakup,

638
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: and then two weeks after the breakup air and then

639
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: that was when I got the phone called and my

640
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: dad was in the hospital, was being rushed to the hospital.

641
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: And then I spent ten days like living there. I thought,

642
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: like like spending night there and you know, and uh,

643
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: and then after those ten days of being in the hospital,

644
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 1: he just couldn't fight anymore because there were so many complications,

645
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 1: and then he passed away. So then I feel like July, August, September,

646
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 1: October has not been great to me and ready for

647
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 1: some good stuff. What do you kind of how are

648
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: you handling it? How are you dealing with We just

649
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: got done talking right before you came on about kind

650
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: of some of the things that there are some of

651
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 1: the most hard you know, birdens that we carry in life.

652
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: How are you moving on in this season? Um? You know,

653
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: I think for me, I have a really I'm a

654
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: pretty positive person. I would say for the most part,

655
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: I'm like a very optimistic person. So even when it's

656
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 1: when I'm in kind of like a depression or like

657
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 1: things aren't going great, like I try my best to

658
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: always be like, Okay, what's the selverly, like, what am

659
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: I going to grow, you know, from with all of this,

660
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: and I know, like we all go through these downs

661
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: in life, but then that always makes up so much better.

662
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: And so I know they're I mean, I know they're coming.

663
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: You know. It's like, um, it can't always be not

664
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: everything is going to be terrible forever. It's going to

665
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: get better. So UM, I think it's just kind of

666
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: surrounding myself with really positive people. Um. And then like

667
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: I'm getting back into therapy so that's been really helpful

668
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 1: as well. So I think just like doing as much

669
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 1: for yourself so that you're, uh, you're not just like

670
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: wallowing in it and depressed and you know, you're actually

671
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 1: getting out of bed and like going and doing things

672
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: and being around people who are making you feel like

673
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 1: it's worth Um, it's it's worth doing doing things, and

674
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 1: like I'm allowed to be happy, you know, like even

675
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 1: though I'm I've gone through a breakup recently and I'm breathing.

676
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: Like I think that's one thing that's sort of difficult

677
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: for me with social media right now, especially is that

678
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: i feel like I'm not allowed to be happy right now.

679
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: And I'm like it's been good days and it's been

680
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: really bad days but um, but I think that's one

681
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: of the things too, is to allow yourself to like

682
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:16,959
Speaker 1: still be happy and like go out and do things

683
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: and have fun once in a while, because it's important

684
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: to kind of get out of that of being like

685
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,319
Speaker 1: really sad and like take your mind off things. That's uh,

686
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 1: what you just said there is is really wise. I'm

687
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 1: kind of sitting here in meditating on it because, um,

688
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 1: you know, these hard times, these difficult seasons often lead

689
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 1: to something um uh really beautiful and the and the

690
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 1: tough you know, the really the tough times that we

691
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 1: we don't want to live in and be in. Um,

692
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 1: kind of open our eyes to something, um so, something

693
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 1: something grand. Where does that perspective you come from? Like,

694
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,439
Speaker 1: how how have you been able to get that into

695
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: your head and start living that? Because I think a

696
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 1: lot of people out there listenings will probably going you know,

697
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,359
Speaker 1: i've lost the loved one that you know, I've been there,

698
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 1: I felt lonely at times. How have you been able

699
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 1: to kind of refocused and say, no, this is going

700
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: to lead to something really good. I think the hardest thing, um,

701
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: the hardest thing for me has been to think about

702
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 1: like the things but I'm not going to get to

703
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: light with my dad and not the stuff, like I'm

704
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: trying really hard to. I think it's important not to

705
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: not to necessarily go there, but to appreciate this stuff

706
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 1: that we we did have together in the time that

707
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 1: we did have together. And so I think that has

708
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 1: been that's been a challenge, but that's also been something

709
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 1: that has um given me some perspective on it in

710
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: in just reflecting on like all the good times that

711
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 1: we had and not thinking about like what is being

712
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: missed out on. And I mean, honestly, like grieving a

713
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: death is a lot like a breakup, but they're a

714
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: lot like you know when friends part ways. There's i mean,

715
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,800
Speaker 1: obviously there's a more final chapter and it's this with

716
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 1: my father, So it's like somebody very close to me,

717
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,400
Speaker 1: but um, it's done in my entire life. But you know,

718
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 1: it's it's it is important to think about what you

719
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 1: had together and not think about all of the things

720
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: in the future and um and be sad about that.

721
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 1: If that did not make sense, it makes complete sense. Yeah,

722
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:18,839
Speaker 1: I mean, I think you're just you know, I think

723
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 1: you're speaking to a lot of people right now who

724
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: listen to this podcast. And have felt this and just

725
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 1: never never been able to audibly say or they haven't

726
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 1: maybe listen to anybody else kind of walked through it

727
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 1: with him. So thank you for talking to us about it.

728
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 1: I know this is not easy. I know it's not

729
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: something that you want to continue to to relive every second,

730
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: every day. But the point that you're doing is you're

731
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 1: increasing his value by talking about it. So thank you.

732
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 1: It's been very strange too, just because, um, like death

733
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: is a difficult thing no matter what. But my done

734
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 1: and I had a very complex, complicated relationship too, so

735
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: I have very mixed emotions even not about his death

736
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,839
Speaker 1: but about like my motion just like a confusing time.

737
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 1: It was a confusing time when I went into the hospital.

738
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: Um my step mom was the one that called me,

739
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 1: and I hadn't seen her spoken to her, and like

740
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 1: and all years I have no idea how long it

741
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 1: had been. My dad and I didn't speak at one

742
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 1: point for seven years, and we were like kind of

743
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: on a mending, rebuilding our relationship positions. It was like,

744
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 1: you know, there's there's so much more to um to

745
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 1: to everything in life, you know what I mean. So, um,

746
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 1: it's it's just been kind of a little bit of

747
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 1: a confusing a couple of months. But um but I

748
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: think yet there's a lot of growth that can happen

749
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 1: from going through these really really huge life changing moments.

750
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:44,279
Speaker 1: So I've been looking forward to those those growth moment

751
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: where I looked back and you're like, wow, that was

752
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 1: really really terrible time, but look at where I am got.

753
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 1: You know, would there be anything you would share, um

754
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: with the listeners who have been through this, or just

755
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: listening for a piece of advisors, or any lessons learned

756
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 1: already that you you don't want to speak to him. Um,

757
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't think of anything like really

758
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 1: maybe pointing it, but I will say so we already

759
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: had my dad's memorial and I was considering not speaking

760
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: at it because I was like it was just gonna

761
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 1: be too emotional for me, and um, I for a

762
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 1: couple of days before I said, you know what, like

763
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: put me in the program and if I can, I

764
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: kind of if I can't off somebody else read what

765
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: I wrote, but I would say, maybe try to do

766
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,839
Speaker 1: whatever you think you need to do for you and

767
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,320
Speaker 1: like even and be really honest about it too, because

768
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: even um so I ended up speaking and I cried

769
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 1: through the entire thing, and um that I was, like

770
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 1: I was, I kind of said what I needed to

771
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 1: say and got it. You know. It's like it was

772
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: my opportunity to to share my relationship with my dad

773
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:55,239
Speaker 1: and and those little things like I know that I

774
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 1: would have probably really regretted it if I didn't speak,

775
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: And so whatever that is for you, it might not

776
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,760
Speaker 1: be that per se, but like for me, just pushing yourself,

777
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: even in those moments where you're like I can't get

778
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 1: out of bed and all I'm doing is crying and

779
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 1: I can't even imagine, like you know, whatever it may be,

780
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 1: like push yourself to maybe do those things just because

781
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 1: you might regret it later on in life if you don't.

782
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 1: You know, maybe like little things like that, like just

783
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 1: push yourself because it also like when you do push yourself,

784
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 1: it gets it forces you to step out of that

785
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: comfort zone and then not from really beautiful things happen.

786
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: Whatever it may be. Again, like mine was. That's just

787
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 1: the example that I'm giving. But yeah, you you mentioned

788
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 1: here and I know, um, we're gonna dig in. Ashley

789
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 1: has a lot of digging here. You mentioned that you

790
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 1: know that is death is very similar to breakups you've

791
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: been through a breakup on Bachelor in Paradise, we saw

792
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:53,280
Speaker 1: that play out. Ashley was very upset about this breakup.

793
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 1: This was one that she she had her heart invested into.

794
00:39:56,360 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 1: How are you doing from that? I'm mean, I'm good now.

795
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,240
Speaker 1: I think it's enough. Time has passed and I actually

796
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:07,760
Speaker 1: feel like with everything that happened with my dad, um,

797
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,240
Speaker 1: it was good. Some of my my best friends actually

798
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 1: reached out to Camille the day after I think he

799
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 1: was admitted into the hospital, and so he and I

800
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 1: were corresponding a little bit on texting during that time,

801
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 1: and it was very eye opening to me to realize,

802
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:30,800
Speaker 1: like I think before that I still was very um.

803
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 1: I would say hopeful for like the future, like I

804
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:37,240
Speaker 1: know that Queen and I couldn't hold on hold on okay, wait,

805
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 1: I'm literally writing my notes right now. That he was

806
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 1: such a jerk to you, like the worst thing really

807
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 1: a human could do to somebody that I think that

808
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,279
Speaker 1: you would be so over him, you'd be like I

809
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 1: on even have a break up morning period because he

810
00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 1: was such a jerk that I just want him to

811
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 1: be slandered by everyone. I have no interesting corresponding with

812
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: him ever. Ever, again, I don't even feel sad because

813
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 1: he's such a jerk. This is I told you, actually

814
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 1: was feeling this for you. Um No, and I completely

815
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:19,959
Speaker 1: hear what you're saying. Um it's easier said than done.

816
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:24,439
Speaker 1: To remind everyone, he broke up with you on TV. Yeah,

817
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 1: I know, he broke up with me on national television.

818
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,399
Speaker 1: And it was like when I watched the Blast Blast

819
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 1: actually when the breakup really stung, because I think I

820
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,760
Speaker 1: was so numb when it happened the first time around.

821
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 1: I didn't even really realize how bad it was. And

822
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 1: then when I watched it again, I was like, oh

823
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: my god U And that was actually that. There was

824
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 1: like two weeks after it aired. In that period, I

825
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 1: was like I don't want anything to do with him,

826
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 1: and he was texting me like every day like pleas

827
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 1: going to need to talk, and I was like, I

828
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:50,320
Speaker 1: just can't right now if I need space. Um. But

829
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:51,839
Speaker 1: that's what I was going to say that with my dad,

830
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,399
Speaker 1: I was my friend's reach up just to let him

831
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,479
Speaker 1: know what was going on. And and during that time

832
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 1: that was kind of for me when it was like, Okay,

833
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:01,800
Speaker 1: this is now, we're going to happen because he wasn't

834
00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 1: there for me the way, like even even as a

835
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,279
Speaker 1: friend friend, like I felt like he just didn't know

836
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: how to to be there and like, were you going

837
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: through difficult times? Do you want somebody who couldn't really

838
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 1: be there for you? I don't think you should have

839
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 1: wanted him to be there for you, know, I mean,

840
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: and I didn't. That was the thing I think in

841
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,320
Speaker 1: those moments where like when he was checking or whatever,

842
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 1: I was just like, I'm I started was seeling like

843
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 1: I'm done. Um, I think I needed like a final

844
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 1: straw with him, And that was a little bit Okay.

845
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 1: I know I should have my final straw sod to

846
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:31,800
Speaker 1: him when he broke up with me on national television,

847
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,840
Speaker 1: but um, yeah, I wish, I wish I could have.

848
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: You asked him, he said, swear on your mother's life

849
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 1: that you will not break up with me during this

850
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: union show, and he didn't. Well, I'm scared for his mom. Now, Yeah,

851
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I was so blindsighted. I there, in a

852
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:55,880
Speaker 1: million years, I would not have thought that that was

853
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 1: going to happen, just because of the conversations but we

854
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 1: had leading up to it, and I was saying it

855
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 1: because I thought he was going to break up with me.

856
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 1: Like I didn't say t I mean, you're not going

857
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,399
Speaker 1: to It was just kind of like a jokey thing,

858
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 1: you know really because that's interesting, like they're not going

859
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:11,399
Speaker 1: to propose to me, So like what are the other

860
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 1: big things that happened? Like we didn't break up with me?

861
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:14,880
Speaker 1: And he's like, I would you ever do that? I

862
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 1: start remember those ways. So you're saying, you're saying that

863
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 1: you were blindsided because that was a joke because like

864
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure the audience was thinking, like, oh, they were

865
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 1: on the verge of a breakup and she was worried

866
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 1: about it. But now oh no, no, oh no, I

867
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,239
Speaker 1: didn't say it. I was like, I'm afraid that we're

868
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 1: going to break up, so please don't break up with me.

869
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 1: Um no, I I said it kind of when I

870
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 1: stood it for him, it was like, hey, we didn't

871
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 1: break up with me, Like that's what's do that on

872
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 1: the national television? You know, It's like, no, definitely was

873
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 1: a little bit lighter. Um. It wasn't like a concern.

874
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: We had had some rocky points, like I mean I

875
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 1: was going to break up with him. A couple of

876
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 1: weeks prior to that, because I was just not getting

877
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:54,919
Speaker 1: enough from him. But then the last couple of weeks

878
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 1: right before the reunion, we were actually like really doing

879
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,840
Speaker 1: pretty good, um, and so I was like just excited

880
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 1: about it. Well that now that you reconnected with him

881
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,319
Speaker 1: in some sense after the breakup, I want to know

882
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 1: what Mel said was his reasoning behind breaking up with you,

883
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 1: aren't TV. Honestly, I think I think he's still I

884
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,960
Speaker 1: think he's just a confused person, like and I think

885
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 1: he just had a lot to figure out still in life,

886
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,839
Speaker 1: and I just don't think he's really ready for a relationship.

887
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 1: And so I don't think he said to me many

888
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 1: times doctor would break up, He's like, I don't I

889
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:31,640
Speaker 1: don't want to break up with you. I just I

890
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,319
Speaker 1: don't even know like how that happened, Like I don't

891
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 1: know why I did it. And I'm like, well, you

892
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 1: did it, and you're not trying to get me back,

893
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 1: so you know. UM. But I think like once he

894
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,480
Speaker 1: actually said he was kind of like, oh, maybe I'm

895
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: okay with being single. I don't know, I have no idea.

896
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,560
Speaker 1: We had many conversations about it, trying to get some

897
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:55,040
Speaker 1: clarity and trying to get some closure, and I just

898
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 1: don't think. I think the closure Sauce is like is

899
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:02,880
Speaker 1: really just like watching watching that final reunion episode. I'm

900
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,720
Speaker 1: watching his break up for me because that's when I'm like, Okay,

901
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: that was pretty bad. Antilies. I think, uh, you've been

902
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:15,120
Speaker 1: on the podcast not three times. Every time I feel

903
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:18,720

904
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,400

00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: um Antilies. I don't know where I saw this, but

914
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: I saw a picture of you, a millionaire matchmaker from

915
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 1: like two thousand eleven and the brown hair, and it

916
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 1: was crazy. Yeah, tell us about that. It was when

917
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 1: I first moved to l A and I was like

918
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 1: recently out of my first series, and I can't remember

919
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,880
Speaker 1: how it happened. I was like just out and about

920
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 1: and somebody was like, hey, do you want to do this?

921
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 1: And I went with a bunch of girlfriends like we

922
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 1: just thought it would be fun and uh and then

923
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: I was like in my twenties, I definitely dyed my

924
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 1: hair every every couple of months. It was like a

925
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 1: new hair color and hair both ways. You look at

926
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 1: both ways, thank you. I've had red hair um as well,

927
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 1: and I love changing it up. But now I'm like,

928
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: it's just easier and it's cheaper to be with my

929
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,480
Speaker 1: natural hair colors. Well that's where I'm at now. But

930
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 1: you're natural blonde and you go brunette. Yeah uh yeah.

931
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:48,239
Speaker 1: So it was fun. I mean it was fun. It

932
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 1: was like it was like many many many movies like that.

933
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,239
Speaker 1: It was, but it was It's funny about it was

934
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 1: like kind of came full circles. So looking I'm like, well,

Speaker 1: little boot costume for my dog. Yeah, we're going as

1005
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:46,520
Speaker 1: the whole Aladdin. I don't know what this is. That's

1006
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 1: so crazy. Jared and I are invited to dinners and

1007
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:52,280
Speaker 1: parties all the time, and they're you know, and usually

1008
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,919
Speaker 1: you're like, You're like, I guess we'll go. I guess

1009
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,160
Speaker 1: we'll go, right, But I never get invited to a

1010
00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 1: Halloween party. Really what I have not dressed up in

1011
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:06,160
Speaker 1: a Halloween costume? Honestly, probably way before college. No way,

1012
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 1: Jared too. I don't think Jared has like dressed up

1013
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 1: since he was twelve. I haven't dressed Yeah, and I

1014
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:12,640
Speaker 1: didn't go to treating as a kid. My favorite was

1015
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 1: passing out to candy. I never liked to dress up.

1016
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 1: I don't know why. My last official outfit that I

1017
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 1: remember really wanting to be with Elvis. You could really

1018
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 1: pull that off if you could watch I can do

1019
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:28,320
Speaker 1: look very good at that, and we all know that

1020
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:30,319
Speaker 1: you could do the hip manyeah. So that was what

1021
00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 1: I wanted, But I just don't dress up anymore, and

1022
00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:35,760
Speaker 1: nobody comes to my house for trick or treating. Nobody

1023
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:37,799
Speaker 1: comes to ours either, And that's all Jared and I

1024
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:39,359
Speaker 1: wanted to do this year. We're like, okay, so if

1025
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,880
Speaker 1: we're not invited to a Halloween party, then at least

1026
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 1: can we I even tweeted, I said, can I come

1027
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 1: to somebody somebody's suburban house and pass out candy, dress

1028
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:51,520
Speaker 1: up as Jasmine a lot? Yeah? I don't know why.

1029
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 1: Here's my strategy too. This is where this really gets

1030
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:58,320
Speaker 1: upsetting for me. My very first year living in my house,

1031
00:51:58,480 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 1: I went out to the store and I was like,

1032
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,239
Speaker 1: I want to be the cool neighbor, Like I want

1033
00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:03,960
Speaker 1: to be known for something. You know, I'm twenty four

1034
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 1: years old living in a neighborhood a bunch of thirty

1035
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:08,200
Speaker 1: and four years Like, I need to prove myself worthy

1036
00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:09,520
Speaker 1: of being in that neighborhood. So I went out to

1037
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,040
Speaker 1: the store and I bought king size candy bars, like

1038
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:14,920
Speaker 1: a lot of king sized candy bars. I wanted to impress,

1039
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 1: impress the people. I had a great turnout, right, I

1040
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,440
Speaker 1: was selling it obviously. Walk on the street, Hey, take

1041
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:24,240
Speaker 1: a candy bar, thinking next year it's gonna be wild.

1042
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 1: Nobody showed up. No, I still have the candy in

1043
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:29,640
Speaker 1: my drawer from last hallowe. I'm not going to serve it.

1044
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:31,759
Speaker 1: Parents out there, you can come to my house. It's safe.

1045
00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:35,000
Speaker 1: But I still have the candy. I did not. I

1046
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:38,239
Speaker 1: probably got four trigger treaters. Four and they were like

1047
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:39,759
Speaker 1: high school kids, like the ones that you don't want

1048
00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: to pass out candy. It's just weird, You're you're just

1049
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,880
Speaker 1: being odd. I did that once. I've actually think I

1050
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:48,360
Speaker 1: graduated college. I think when I was twenty three, I

1051
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 1: trigger treated and it was like a joke. So I

1052
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:53,600
Speaker 1: went with all of my college friends and we were

1053
00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 1: all like three. We went trick or treating with masks on,

1054
00:52:58,040 --> 00:52:59,920
Speaker 1: and then they'd be like, where do you go to school?

1055
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:04,240
Speaker 1: And we'd be like, Blangley, I like peed my pants,

1056
00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 1: laughing so hard going house to house. Yeah, back in

1057
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,399
Speaker 1: the day, we're weird. We're just weird. People are weird. Yeah,

1058
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 1: but we're in it together. Like Jared is just like you,

1059
00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:14,560
Speaker 1: or he doesn't dress up and I just don't understand.

1060
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 1: He's like, I can't believe you're spending sixty dollars on

1061
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 1: my Aladdin costume. I'm like, I cannot believe that you

1062
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:21,120

Speaker 1: of the finalists on Bob Guinea's season. And yes, years ago,

1114
00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:09,200
Speaker 1: I was a h a twenty three year old and

1115
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,920
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm like a Bachelor grandma compared to

1116
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,319
Speaker 1: you guys right now. But on our season, Um, I

1117
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 1: was the finalist. So he's the one that gave me

1118
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:23,280
Speaker 1: the however in the end, and yes, and he shows

1119
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:29,239
Speaker 1: Estella beautiful Estella and I became a part of the

1120
00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:32,000
Speaker 1: Bachelor of Love. But you know we weren't even an

1121
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:37,560
Speaker 1: eight d for crying out loud. So we're old. Your

1122
00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:41,279
Speaker 1: name is Kelly. When you watch Bob Guinea season, we

1123
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 1: had to go back and pull up some tape. Um,

1124
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 1: Kelly Joker, How in the world did you say you

1125
00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:53,120
Speaker 1: made name? It's fanetic, it's Torsky. And then one of

1126
00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:56,040
Speaker 1: our listeners, as a big fan of yours, she wrote

1127
00:56:56,080 --> 00:56:57,960
Speaker 1: us an email and said, hey, could you bring in

1128
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:01,799
Speaker 1: Kelly Joe Higgins to the podcast to hear what she's

1129
00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:04,360
Speaker 1: doing in life? So you have a fan base that

1130
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:08,719
Speaker 1: still last today. Congrats. Oh that's fun. I'll tell her

1131
00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:11,759
Speaker 1: thank you. She's probably listening. I'm assuming, but I guess

1132
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:14,920
Speaker 1: there is no relation between your husband, who is a

1133
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:19,160
Speaker 1: hockey player, Matthew Higgins, to Ben Ben Higgins right here.

1134
00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 1: No relation. No, it's probably not. I don't think so.

1135
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:26,400
Speaker 1: It is a common last name, I suppose, although they

1136
00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:28,760
Speaker 1: do kind of look alike. It's a little bit strange.

1137
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna look him up right now. What's his name? Matthew?

1138
00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:35,880
Speaker 1: And Matthew who does he play for? Does he still play? Well?

1139
00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 1: He is retired now. So he played for the Montreal

1140
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: Canadians back in the day, and then Um played in

1141
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:47,200
Speaker 1: Europe for nine professional seasons and that's when I met

1142
00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 1: him actually right after we did this show. Um. Actually

1143
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:54,520
Speaker 1: I met him before the show and he was signing

1144
00:57:54,520 --> 00:57:57,080
Speaker 1: his first contract in Europe, and I knew that I

1145
00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 1: was ready to go and that signed with the Bachelor franchise,

1146
00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:04,600
Speaker 1: and I told him listen, let's just see what happens.

1147
00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:08,600
Speaker 1: And back then we had the friends moved into the

1148
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 1: house and they asked me. He asked me if I

1149
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:14,080
Speaker 1: had met anybody before the show or if I had

1150
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:17,680
Speaker 1: dated anybody seriously, and I said, well, there's a potential

1151
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:22,560
Speaker 1: happy patati that I might figure out if if Bob

1152
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:26,640
Speaker 1: gives me the boot, and that's what we did a while. Yeah,

1153
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 1: we're looking at a picture of your husband. Now, no

1154
00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,120
Speaker 1: offense to Bob getting but it's definitely cuter than Bob.

1155
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 1: I think, Yeah, I think, I definitely. I don't know.

1156
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:40,680
Speaker 1: I think he's pretty than cute. Uh So that's interesting

1157
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,760
Speaker 1: that you guys were kind of talking before the show,

1158
00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:46,960
Speaker 1: because I remember the Bachelor producers were like, after you

1159
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:49,440
Speaker 1: go on the Bachelor, the guy in your life, if

1160
00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:51,200
Speaker 1: there is a guy in your life is either totally

1161
00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:53,919
Speaker 1: going to come around or it wasn't meant to be

1162
00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:58,520
Speaker 1: and they're just like, there's something about the Bachelor. Of course,

1163
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:00,640
Speaker 1: seeing your girl in the Bachelor is go going to

1164
00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:04,040
Speaker 1: make the guy be probably jealous and be like, oh

1165
00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:06,320
Speaker 1: my gosh, I what am I missing out on? I'm

1166
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:09,720
Speaker 1: losing this girl and now she's like off doing big

1167
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:13,400
Speaker 1: things in their life. So that's absolutely hilarious that you

1168
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,480
Speaker 1: think that, because my husband is totally the opposite. He really,

1169
00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:20,360
Speaker 1: you know, face deep in his hockey perfection and over

1170
00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:24,440
Speaker 1: in Europe. And of course they caught wins somehow that

1171
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:29,120
Speaker 1: he and I had met before she started his his

1172
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:32,280
Speaker 1: career with this German hockey team. And then I went

1173
00:59:32,320 --> 00:59:33,960
Speaker 1: on the show and I think I was in US

1174
00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 1: Weekly or something like that, and one of the teammates

1175
00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 1: brought to US Weekly to him and he's like, look

1176
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:43,360
Speaker 1: here she is. And then I think somebody got one

1177
00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 1: of the episodes from the American Air Force a network,

1178
00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 1: which is way back before all of the internet. Gosh,

1179
00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:52,800
Speaker 1: I'm aging myself. This is crazy. Anyway, so he was

1180
00:59:52,840 --> 00:59:56,080
Speaker 1: able to watch I think the hometown date, and the

1181
00:59:56,120 --> 00:59:58,960
Speaker 1: hockey team was just rather in him, and then I

1182
00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:01,360
Speaker 1: think he was kind of put up to it after

1183
01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 1: they knew that the show was done, he called me

1184
01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 1: was out of nowhere and just said how are you?

1185
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:08,720
Speaker 1: What's going on? And then that's kind of how we rekindle.

1186
01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:11,720
Speaker 1: We never really chatted much after because I knew, I mean,

1187
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:14,600
Speaker 1: I put myself all in because I was excited about

1188
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 1: doing the Bachelor, and and he was starting a career

1189
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:19,120
Speaker 1: in Europe. So who would have thought that we would

1190
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:21,320
Speaker 1: ever meet up again. So do you think was there

1191
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:25,840
Speaker 1: ever a talk about you being the bachelrette? Yes? There was, yea,

1192
01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 1: And um, I think this with demographics as well as um,

1193
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:35,400
Speaker 1: Meredith Philips was the bachelorette after ours, So I think

1194
01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:38,520
Speaker 1: it came down to and I don't remember the legality

1195
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 1: behind all of it, but it was between her and I,

1196
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:44,440
Speaker 1: and she was a little bit older, I think, way more,

1197
01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:48,320
Speaker 1: you know, I think, just ready to have a commitment.

1198
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:51,800
Speaker 1: And I was twenty three and I didn't want my

1199
01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:54,360
Speaker 1: space kind of with the split down us weekly, So

1200
01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:57,640
Speaker 1: of course I was looking for love and I'm you know,

1201
01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:01,960
Speaker 1: I was ready, but I think, um, I think the

1202
01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,920
Speaker 1: viewers were ready for someone to something to stick on

1203
01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:07,280
Speaker 1: the show too. So these guys are too young to

1204
01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:10,520
Speaker 1: remember Meredith. But what happened to is when she was

1205
01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:14,280
Speaker 1: on with Bob. Remember her grandma died and she like

1206
01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:18,440
Speaker 1: won the Hearts of America because her grandma died and

1207
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,280
Speaker 1: and she stayed or she left or something happened. And

1208
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:23,400
Speaker 1: I just have this memory and I feel like that's

1209
01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 1: why they made her the bachelorette. Do you remember that.

1210
01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, she's she's awesome. I'm not saying, but

1211
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 1: it was like that was like the she made this

1212
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:35,520
Speaker 1: big impact on the audience because of that. So that

1213
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:37,880
Speaker 1: was to me why then she became the bachelorette. It

1214
01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:40,800
Speaker 1: was like, Oh, God, to help the girl that, you

1215
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 1: know what I mean? That was how I remember it. Yeah,

1216
01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:46,480
Speaker 1: I don't remember. I mean, they never told me the

1217
01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:48,480
Speaker 1: full story, but I just said, hey, list you want

1218
01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:51,680
Speaker 1: me after, I'll do it. But then it all works out.

1219
01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:54,320
Speaker 1: God has this amazing way in a path, and I've

1220
01:01:54,360 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 1: just pumped that my journey went towards where I am now,

1221
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:00,600
Speaker 1: which is with my husband and now I two kids.

1222
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:03,439
Speaker 1: And well that's kind of what I want to talk about. Now,

1223
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:06,120
Speaker 1: your journey took you to marry your husband, changing your

01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:08,080
Speaker 1: last name, and now we're cousins. Let's figure out how

1225
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:12,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I want to I would love to be

01:02:12,640 --> 01:02:17,240
Speaker 1: related to your husband. That guy he's a stud. Um,

1227
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 1: But I think so, how is here's a really important question.

1228
01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:25,080
Speaker 1: I'll set of everything else. I'll say the Bachelor, Bachelor

1229
01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:27,360
Speaker 1: atte is, Here's what I really wanted to get to know.

1230
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:33,479
Speaker 1: How has the Higgins last name worked for you? Well?

1231
01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:36,640

1236
01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:51,560
Speaker 1: thank you. I need that. I thought your back. I

1237
01:02:51,600 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 1: need the support. Um. Before we let you go, a

1238
01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:56,280
Speaker 1: couple of questions. You were back in a day, like

1239
01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:58,640
Speaker 1: you said, I wasn't going to bring this up, but

1240
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 1: you you allowed me to. Um. You you were on

1241
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:06,400
Speaker 1: the show while back and it was before really internet

1242
01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,800
Speaker 1: and social media and all that became popular. What kind

1243
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:11,680
Speaker 1: of feedback did you get, Like if you go back

1244
01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:14,720
Speaker 1: in that time of life, did you feel like a celebrity,

1245
01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:17,000
Speaker 1: did you feel like people were watching you. Did you

1246
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:20,560
Speaker 1: feel the criticisms and the celebration in the praise or

1247
01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:23,720
Speaker 1: was it kind of just kind of more Quiet. Well,

1248
01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:27,400
Speaker 1: first of all, I'm so thankful social media wasn't fierce

1249
01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:29,160
Speaker 1: when I was on, because I think it would have

1250
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 1: been way worse. But I think at that time ABC

1251
01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:35,440
Speaker 1: had a blog or something, and I think after the

1252
01:03:35,640 --> 01:03:39,560
Speaker 1: second so aired, I went on just because I was

1253
01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:41,800
Speaker 1: interested to see what people were saying. And it was

1254
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:46,280
Speaker 1: terrible because it was Kelly Joe. I was getting called

1255
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:49,800
Speaker 1: Kelly hell because I was the first one that kissed Bob,

1256
01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:51,600
Speaker 1: and I just was like, oh, I'm never going on

1257
01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:54,640
Speaker 1: this again because I didn't even imagine what you guys

1258
01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:57,960
Speaker 1: go through on a daily basis. Just was so so

1259
01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 1: and just the haters out there, which is a ridiculous

1260
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:03,160
Speaker 1: because all it is is taking a chance on the

1261
01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:05,960
Speaker 1: what if. Which I love the show for that because

1262
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 1: you never know what will come of it. Right, look

1263
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,400
Speaker 1: at you guys. You're doing an awesome podcast and you're

1264
01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:14,480
Speaker 1: on different shows now. It's amazing. So I'm thankful at

1265
01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:16,800
Speaker 1: that time we didn't have social media and all the

1266
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:18,720
Speaker 1: spin off either, because I have a feeling that I

1267
01:04:18,800 --> 01:04:21,360
Speaker 1: probably would have done back for in Paradise and my

1268
01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:26,960
Speaker 1: wife different. But yes, um, I mean I auditioned, I

1269
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:31,000
Speaker 1: submitted my audition at an with an old dial up

1270
01:04:31,480 --> 01:04:41,800
Speaker 1: that you know, remember the old noise. Yes, I submitted

1271
01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:44,480
Speaker 1: it so and I mean going back, is that I

1272
01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:48,280
Speaker 1: feel famous? No, because but people didn't know us. I

1273
01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:51,280
Speaker 1: mean I was in Chicago at the time and what

1274
01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:53,360
Speaker 1: we were going out and I remember being able to

1275
01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:55,280
Speaker 1: get in a bar because I was on the show.

1276
01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:57,720
Speaker 1: And I think I threw out the first hitch at

1277
01:04:57,760 --> 01:05:04,800
Speaker 1: one of the Hubs games. Don't don't. Yeah, I've done it.

1278
01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:08,520
Speaker 1: But Kelly, Kelly Joe, I like you, but don't say

1279
01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:11,600
Speaker 1: you think you like. It's a small deal. That is

1280
01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:15,000
Speaker 1: a really big honor. That is a privilege, one that

1281
01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 1: we don't just throw out there. You threw the picture, Okay,

1282
01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:22,400
Speaker 1: you actually threw a strike. I do remember I did not.

1283
01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:28,000
Speaker 1: I got so nervous. Hey, Kelly Joe, before we let

01:09:58,040 --> 01:09:59,559
Speaker 1: old that we don't have to say for the right.

1363
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:01,800
Speaker 1: It's one of those songs that you know, what is

1364
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:09,360
Speaker 1: that called mark? There's like some public domain anyone public domain? Yeah,

1365
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:11,960
Speaker 1: I think there's some lullabies we can sing to figure

1366
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:13,920
Speaker 1: those out. We'd love to do a singing singment the podcast.

1367
01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:16,639
Speaker 1: I think all of our listeners gonna respond in huge

1368
01:10:16,640 --> 01:10:21,240
Speaker 1: ways after hearing that. Yeah, I've got a good point.

1369
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:23,720
Speaker 1: Any feel like I'm not done talking to you yet.

1370
01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:28,080
Speaker 1: I just like like having the playful, regular conversation, you

1371
01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:29,240
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like, I just want to talk

1372
01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:31,759
Speaker 1: about regular things with you sometimes because that's so fun.

1373
01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:36,120
Speaker 1: You haven't seen a Stars Born yet. I haven't. Now

1374
01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:39,280
Speaker 1: I see it twice. Now I don't want to see it.

1375
01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:41,680
Speaker 1: I don't need to cry. I don't need that. Everybody

1376
01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:45,519
Speaker 1: needs it because it makes so many things. You guys,

1377
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:47,960
Speaker 1: don't need the sadness. I cried too much? Do it?

1378
01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:50,040
Speaker 1: Is love? A good work of art that moves me,

1379
01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:54,400
Speaker 1: that does yes, a good work of art that moves you.

1380
01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:56,280
Speaker 1: I'm into that. I mean, I guess I could get

1381
01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:58,320
Speaker 1: behind it. I just I have to be prepared to

1382
01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:01,000
Speaker 1: be moved. Yeah. I can't just be moved all of

1383
01:11:01,040 --> 01:11:03,679
Speaker 1: a sudden. It's just it just it could really when

1384
01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:06,040
Speaker 1: I get moved, I mean I'm moved for a long time.

1385
01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:09,160
Speaker 1: My sister was drained for the entire day. She's like, yeah,

1386
01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:12,519
Speaker 1: that's why she had to want to go. Actually, that's awful,

1387
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:14,519
Speaker 1: you guys. It's fine if you do it on a

1388
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:16,080
Speaker 1: day where you're not going to do anything for the

1389
01:11:16,120 --> 01:11:17,320
Speaker 1: rest of the day. I go see like a five

1390
01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:20,599
Speaker 1: o'clock movie. You could go home be sad, and then

1391
01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:23,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna sleep, and then you're gonna wake up next morning.

1392
01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:24,880
Speaker 1: You're gonna want to listen to the soundtrack. Then for

1393
01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:28,080
Speaker 1: some reason, there's a weird crack in it, because no

1394
01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:30,639
Speaker 1: matter how sad you were, you're gonna want to see

1395
01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:33,479
Speaker 1: it again after twenty four hours. No. Yeah, my sister

1396
01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:35,439
Speaker 1: said the exact same thing happened. She was like, we

1397
01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:38,240
Speaker 1: left the movie theater and she said, I cannot believe you.

1398
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,799
Speaker 1: Just you saw that twice and I go, wait twenty

1399
01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:43,519
Speaker 1: four hours and you're going to think differently. Twenty four

1400
01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:45,080
Speaker 1: hours later, she was like, I want to say it again.

1401
01:11:45,160 --> 01:11:48,200
Speaker 1: I saw Halloween, Ben us too that good? Did you

1402
01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:52,599
Speaker 1: like Halloween? Yeah? I get scared easy? Oh I don't. Yeah,

1403
01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:58,240
Speaker 1: I don't love it. I just get nervous. I know,

1404
01:11:58,520 --> 01:12:02,559
Speaker 1: I just rough right now. I'm just emotional. I don't

1405
01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:04,720
Speaker 1: get scared easily. And all I want to do is

1406
01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:06,680
Speaker 1: see a movie that scares the crap out of me.

1407
01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:09,000
Speaker 1: And I can't come up with one. Why. Why shouldn't

1408
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,840
Speaker 1: we dig into why Ben is emotional? Do you want? Really?

1409
01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:16,120
Speaker 1: Is there something or help for that? Nocause I'm doing

1410
01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:20,960
Speaker 1: brain training. Yeah, I'm rewiring my brain. Are you going

1411
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:23,080
Speaker 1: to a different therapist or sometime? I mean, I just

1412
01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:25,200
Speaker 1: watch a lot of videos, read a lot of articles,

1413
01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:27,240
Speaker 1: and it takes work, but it's all worth events. So

1414
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:30,240
Speaker 1: you could retrain your brain too. I don't know if

1415
01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:32,439
Speaker 1: that seemed really really intense. I don't know if I'm

1416
01:12:32,439 --> 01:12:34,920
Speaker 1: there yet. Well, I mean, I'm just saying it's working.

1417
01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:38,040
Speaker 1: It's not working. I'm not cured by any means, but

1418
01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:42,120
Speaker 1: it's working. There's improvement, but it's slow. It's all about

1419
01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:46,639
Speaker 1: training your brain to think positive thoughts and good thoughts,

1420
01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:49,360
Speaker 1: and when you go to the negative place, you just

1421
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:51,760
Speaker 1: switch it back. You want to know why I don't

1422
01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:54,640
Speaker 1: want to go see a Stars Born? Why I have?

1423
01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:56,360
Speaker 1: I was just looking through my list. I knew I was.

1424
01:12:56,479 --> 01:12:58,320
Speaker 1: I was mad about something, and why don't go to

1425
01:12:58,360 --> 01:12:59,960
Speaker 1: movies anymore? The last time I went to a movie.

1426
01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:03,400
Speaker 1: I'm sitting in this movie. I'm getting ready to emotionally

1427
01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:08,320
Speaker 1: prepare myself for Um, for this show, from Halloween, for

1428
01:13:08,360 --> 01:13:12,439
Speaker 1: Halloween and the movie. More than ever, I think this

1429
01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:14,280
Speaker 1: is a sign that I'm getting old because it never

1430
01:13:14,360 --> 01:13:16,880
Speaker 1: used to bother me. I know that I'm I'm that

1431
01:13:16,960 --> 01:13:20,200
Speaker 1: whatever it's ticking inside of me is happening at at

1432
01:13:20,240 --> 01:13:23,400
Speaker 1: a faster rate than ever. There's two high school kids

1433
01:13:23,400 --> 01:13:25,559
Speaker 1: sitting two rows in front of me, three seats to

1434
01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:27,439
Speaker 1: the left. I can hear everything they're saying, and they

1435
01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:30,960
Speaker 1: refuse to stop talking during the movie, and then they

1436
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:32,720
Speaker 1: want to comment to each other during the movie, like

1437
01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:36,000
Speaker 1: so when something funny happens, it wasn't that good? Remember

1438
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:37,960
Speaker 1: that one time? You know? Was that during Halloween? Now,

1439
01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:41,759
Speaker 1: because that's all all kids do is talk during horrors.

1440
01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:45,720
Speaker 1: It's absolutely the most frustrating experience because I paid a

1441
01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:47,920
Speaker 1: ridiculous amount of money these days to be in that movie.

1442
01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:51,200
Speaker 1: I only pay to that movie for the experience, and

1443
01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:54,840
Speaker 1: my experience is not gonna be ruined where you're immature

1444
01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:59,160
Speaker 1: young communication between whatever you're happening, where you listen and

1445
01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:01,360
Speaker 1: google for each other, then poke your buddy in the

1446
01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:03,559
Speaker 1: side to make him giggle louder during this really scary

1447
01:14:03,600 --> 01:14:05,360
Speaker 1: part of the movie. Because that makes me jump even higher,

1448
01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:08,400
Speaker 1: because it makes it more real. I don't want to

1449
01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:11,000
Speaker 1: go to movies anymore. I will sit on my couch

1450
01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:13,800
Speaker 1: and enjoy it on my own, just like most things

1451
01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:17,240
Speaker 1: in life these days. That's why I'm getting old. You

1452
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:20,720
Speaker 1: need I pick in your life. They have that. I

1453
01:14:20,800 --> 01:14:23,040
Speaker 1: think it's amazing, but also okay, so I pick as

1454
01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:26,640
Speaker 1: a movie theater around here where your seat completely reclines.

1455
01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:28,680
Speaker 1: You have a blank ee like, no joke. They give

1456
01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:31,880
Speaker 1: you a blanket and a pillow before. Yeah I didn't

1457
01:14:31,960 --> 01:14:35,360
Speaker 1: check that. The baby would definitely check that out. That's

1458
01:14:35,360 --> 01:14:38,519
Speaker 1: like a gamy thing. And then they give you wine

1459
01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:40,599
Speaker 1: and food and they come and deliver it to your

1460
01:14:40,640 --> 01:14:43,800
Speaker 1: seat and the seats are spread out. It's more expensive,

1461
01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:47,160
Speaker 1: but you couldn't hear what someone else is signed next

1462
01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:48,600
Speaker 1: to you, Like one time, I'm not gonna lie. I

1463
01:14:48,600 --> 01:14:51,080
Speaker 1: actually brought my laptop in there and did work while

1464
01:14:51,160 --> 01:14:58,120
Speaker 1: watching the movie. Like your brain rewied. Yeah, that's just weird.

1465
01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:00,080
Speaker 1: That's there's nothing okay about that. You paid to in

1466
01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:01,240
Speaker 1: a movie. Why would you pay to be in a

1467
01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:03,680
Speaker 1: movie and work on your computers in your living room? Well, no,

1468
01:15:03,720 --> 01:15:05,200
Speaker 1: because it was a new movie. It was a Liam

1469
01:15:05,280 --> 01:15:11,800
Speaker 1: Neeson tasks I don't like I'm one I'm one way go,

1470
01:15:11,960 --> 01:15:14,320
Speaker 1: which actually next week let's talk about that a little bit,

1471
01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:17,120
Speaker 1: because I think a lot of women struggle with understanding

1472
01:15:17,160 --> 01:15:19,679
Speaker 1: that men only can do one thing at a time.

1473
01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:21,880
Speaker 1: They totally and we don't get it, and so it

1474
01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:24,800
Speaker 1: totally befuddles us because we're like, I don't understand why

1475
01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:26,320
Speaker 1: he can't text me back, But he can't text me

1476
01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:29,160
Speaker 1: back because he's busy. But when we're busy, we can

1477
01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:31,720
Speaker 1: text you and Iron and talk on the phone an

1478
01:15:31,720 --> 01:15:34,320
Speaker 1: type emails and watch TV. I don't know why ironed

1479
01:15:34,360 --> 01:15:37,400
Speaker 1: so much, but yeah, to let's talk about that. Hold.

1480
01:15:37,560 --> 01:15:40,320
Speaker 1: I have so much more to say, Like I don't

1481
01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:43,000
Speaker 1: like going. I can't watch movies at home because I'll

1482
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:46,519
Speaker 1: fall asleep. I will fall asleep and I'm never invested

1483
01:15:46,560 --> 01:15:49,000
Speaker 1: because there's either my phone or my computer, or like

1484
01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:52,160
Speaker 1: I can go like wear a face mask and then

1485
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 1: go wash it off, and then I can go get

1486
01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:56,040
Speaker 1: a snack and like, no, in the theater, I am

1487
01:15:56,080 --> 01:15:59,479
Speaker 1: fully concentrated on the film. Then when I go to

1488
01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:01,960
Speaker 1: I pick I also have the same problem because I

1489
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:03,479
Speaker 1: want to fall asleep because I have a glass of

1490
01:16:03,479 --> 01:16:05,360
Speaker 1: wine and a blankie and I'm reclined, So I really

1491
01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:09,679
Speaker 1: can't go to I Picky Um. And then I'll tell

1492
01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:12,439
Speaker 1: you why Halloween was scary to me because it was

1493
01:16:12,479 --> 01:16:15,040
Speaker 1: a very similar situation to you. And by the way,

1494
01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:18,040
Speaker 1: I'm glad that you just did a bend bitches by accident.

1495
01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:24,519
Speaker 1: Did you realize that that wasn't by accident. Okay, okay, Well, um,

1496
01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:26,599
Speaker 1: in Halloween, Jared and I want to go see it

1497
01:16:26,640 --> 01:16:29,240
Speaker 1: in Puerto Rico. We're in Puerto Rico because Jared like,

1498
01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:31,519
Speaker 1: literally a good way to spend your time when you're

1499
01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:35,080
Speaker 1: on vacation. That's what everybody said to us. But it

1500
01:16:35,160 --> 01:16:38,000
Speaker 1: was our fourth night, and this man is so obsessed

1501
01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:41,080
Speaker 1: with the Halloween series in all movies in general, and

1502
01:16:41,120 --> 01:16:43,960
Speaker 1: like all Halloween movies in general, that we had to

1503
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:45,519
Speaker 1: see it because he was like, if I don't see

1504
01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:47,839
Speaker 1: Halloween tonight that I'm not going to see it until Monday,

1505
01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:49,760
Speaker 1: and I can't wait that long. So we went to

1506
01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:52,800
Speaker 1: see Halloween in Puerto Rico and there was this kid

1507
01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:54,479
Speaker 1: behind us. Okay, he wasn't a kid. He was in

1508
01:16:54,520 --> 01:16:57,720
Speaker 1: his twenties probably, and these seats are weird. Was an

1509
01:16:57,760 --> 01:17:01,080
Speaker 1: older theater, so they leaned back really fall like, you know,

1510
01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:04,720
Speaker 1: they leaned back because they were just like flimsy. So

1511
01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:08,800
Speaker 1: this kid behind us, he gets he we think, came

1512
01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:10,960
Speaker 1: with two other friends, but he never interacted with his

1513
01:17:11,080 --> 01:17:13,080
Speaker 1: two other friends next to him, and they just wouldn't

1514
01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:15,679
Speaker 1: shut up. So that was annoying. But then he gets

1515
01:17:15,760 --> 01:17:19,000
Speaker 1: up to go to the bathroom. Something comes back, and

1516
01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:23,280
Speaker 1: then he's leaning right by my head, like he's leaning

1517
01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:26,760
Speaker 1: down in his seat and his head his chin is

1518
01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:31,080
Speaker 1: literally four inches from my ear. No, we were scared,

1519
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:38,240
Speaker 1: crap lists because we were watching Halloween rereathing out my

1520
01:17:38,280 --> 01:17:41,080
Speaker 1: neck and I'm thinking that he's going to literally take

1521
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:44,799
Speaker 1: a knife out. No, seriously, that's why I was scary.

1522
01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:46,920
Speaker 1: And then I keep looking back at him and he

1523
01:17:47,320 --> 01:17:50,040
Speaker 1: either got his chin right by me or he put

1524
01:17:50,120 --> 01:17:52,760
Speaker 1: his coat up all the way to his eyes, like

1525
01:17:52,880 --> 01:17:56,519
Speaker 1: covering his But no, he wasn't scared. He was like

1526
01:17:56,600 --> 01:17:59,080
Speaker 1: cold or something, and he was just being eerie. The

1527
01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:02,439
Speaker 1: dude was being so creepy that we had to move

1528
01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:04,360
Speaker 1: seats ten minutes left in the movie. So I don't

1529
01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:08,840
Speaker 1: go to movies. People are creepy, especially Halloween. UM never

1530
01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:10,600
Speaker 1: been a movie in a while. If you're out there,

1531
01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:12,240
Speaker 1: you want to go to a movie. I mean, I'm

1532
01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:15,679
Speaker 1: sure there's one nearest to you. Halloween, recommend it, not really,

1533
01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:19,400
Speaker 1: what did you? I don't like it? Oh I don't know.

1534
01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:22,280
Speaker 1: Jared is also ruins me because he's said, oh, I

1535
01:18:22,280 --> 01:18:24,840
Speaker 1: thought you did see it. Oh I thought the old

1536
01:18:24,880 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 1: one talking about the world. Oh, no, no, no, can

1537
01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:34,160
Speaker 1: we please? Okay? Fine, I just want to say that

1538
01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:36,599
Speaker 1: Jared ruins all movies because he watches it like a critic,

1539
01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:40,400
Speaker 1: so he finds all the flaws in the storyline. So

1540
01:18:40,520 --> 01:18:42,840
Speaker 1: he's like that part that they brought it up for

1541
01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:45,000
Speaker 1: a second and all of a sudden wasn't a storyline anymore.

1542
01:18:45,040 --> 01:18:47,759
Speaker 1: So he like all these pieces. Is they talking about

1543
01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:50,479
Speaker 1: how they brought up that she's not related to Mike

1544
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:54,280
Speaker 1: m did that intentionally? And you can tell Jared, we

1545
01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:56,479
Speaker 1: know it was intentional. We know it was intentionally because

1546
01:18:56,600 --> 01:18:59,719
Speaker 1: they were making that a sequel to number one, racing

1547
01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:02,439
Speaker 1: all the other sequel. Do you remember when in that

1548
01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:06,519
Speaker 1: movie the psychologist goes bad for a second and then

1549
01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:08,680
Speaker 1: he was only bad for like two seconds before he

1550
01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:11,800
Speaker 1: dies spoiler. Then he was like, what was the point

1551
01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:14,040
Speaker 1: of all that? I don't know, to get rid of him?

1552
01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:18,840
Speaker 1: You can't overthink it. Well, let tell Jared about Okay,

1553
01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:21,719
Speaker 1: not to get political. Last weekend, I spoke at politic

1554
01:19:21,760 --> 01:19:26,240
Speaker 1: con Um. It is a conference colliding entertainment and politics

1555
01:19:26,800 --> 01:19:29,439
Speaker 1: on one. It was one of the wildest experiences in

1556
01:19:29,479 --> 01:19:31,400
Speaker 1: my life. A lot of very passionate people out there

1557
01:19:31,439 --> 01:19:34,879
Speaker 1: on both sides of the parties. Uh, my biggest takeaway

1558

1562
01:19:48,160 --> 01:19:52,040

1563
01:19:52,080 --> 01:19:55,200
Speaker 1: we talked about it from the very beginning. Here's a

1564
01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:58,880
Speaker 1: quote doctor from Dr Tang. This relates directly with voting.

1565

1566
01:20:02,800 --> 01:20:08,000
Speaker 1: is incredibly reaffirming. And reaffirming yourself is one way to
