We're coming off of a great night 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 2: multiple interviews, Ben Higgins, Bob Guiney talking to everyone in 7 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 2: the room. We talked about parenthood, we talked about having children, 8 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 2: We talked about the baby shower, we talked about the baby. 9 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 2: What's about your gorgeous wife? We talked about colts, we 10 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 2: talked about sandwiches. We had so many conversations. I don't 11 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 2: even know what the hell was going on. My head 12 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:36,239 Speaker 2: is spinning right now. 13 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 3: And you know what, Bob, some things that stood out 14 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 3: to me tonight Jonan Chalk outside of the baby stuff, 15 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 3: as solid as of a couple as I've ever seen 16 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 3: from The Bachelor. 17 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 2: Yes, me too. 18 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 3: I mean, they can joke with each other, they can 19 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 3: kind of like jab each other a little bit, and 20 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 3: they love each other. That's a standout, you. 21 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 2: Know what I loved. Also, first of all, they do 22 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: speak for each other a little bit, like in a 23 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 2: kind way, but they give each other that space to 24 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 2: speak for themselves, which I think is a very respectful thing. 25 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 2: And older couples do that, and couples who've been together 26 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 2: for a long time with that, but couples in the beginning, 27 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 2: it's like one of them is almost always trying to 28 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 2: dominate the conversation. It would stand a reason that Joan 29 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 2: would almost talk for Chok, right, she doesn't, she doesn't, 30 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 2: she lets him go, and Chalk doesn't need to be 31 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 2: let go. He's a he's a man dud. He has 32 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 2: his own moment. I love them. I love that dude. 33 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 3: Chalk made a comment at the very end of the 34 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 3: podcast that said, it feels like been married for five years. 35 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 3: I remember saying that, and I would say that makes sense, 36 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 3: like it does. Another stand out to me was Jonathan 37 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 3: going on Paradise, his excitement towards that, his you know, 38 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 3: the one thing we didn't dive into with him, but 39 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:58,919 Speaker 3: I think is something to know is his intentionality about 40 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 3: preparing well for that show, meaning he wasn't going to 41 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 3: reach out to bachelor people, he wasn't going to date around, 42 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 3: he was going to keep his slate clean. Really, if 43 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 3: I would have, uh, what do you think about that? Like? 44 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 2: So I have two thoughts on that, Like one of 45 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:19,959 Speaker 2: the thoughts is I I question someone who has such 46 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: a plan now that I question jigginy Jay because I 47 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: actually did enjoy him, But it is interesting to me 48 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 2: that someone has such a plan, like I didn't have 49 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 2: a plan. 50 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 3: I wonder if a little no, I'm with you, I 51 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: think a plan is a is an odd way to 52 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 3: lay it out. I wonder though, for him getting to 53 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 3: spend some time with him, if he has a plan 54 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 3: because of past seasons and how many people have had 55 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 3: a lack of a plan right and just kind of 56 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 3: dated around and gone to these shows. He's watching the 57 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 3: carnage and yeah, and he's like, I need to set 58 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 3: my boundaries up. I need to make sure I think 59 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,079 Speaker 3: this through so that I don't show up to the 60 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: beach and get absolutely destroyed. 61 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 2: I do. I do say this. I like him. I 62 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 2: think he's a very nice personality. I think he seemed 63 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 2: like a really cool guy, and I did like these 64 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 2: They're supporting Jen that whole time through out the season. 65 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 2: I mean that, you know, everyone's like speculating up their 66 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 2: dating and he knows they're not, but he's still there 67 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: every week. You know, part of me. 68 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 3: Is supporting her as a friend and we see this 69 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 3: now with her and Sasha, where like they Jonathan and 70 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 3: Jen definitely didn't have anything, and we guess we don't 71 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 3: really know Sasha and Jen do because it's kind of 72 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 3: the same thing that's happening with Jonathan. But the Sasha 73 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 3: thing seems a little more legit because she's like staying 74 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 3: at his house, which feels like, how did's too attractive people? 75 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: To me? 76 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 3: I go, how did too attractive single people sleep in 77 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 3: the same bad. 78 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: No, we're just gonna say she's gonna stay here at 79 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 2: my couge.

In this place, Terry 498 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 2: Outa is so gorgeous. She's like, enjoy it. You won't 499 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 2: even get to see it. And I'm like, oh, it's 500 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,120 Speaker 2: gonna be great. It's gonna be great. The point is 501 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter when you're here without them. It's yes, 502 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 2: it's a it's a reprieve and it's a moment, but 503 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 2: all you can think about is, oh, man, I wish 504 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 2: my kids could see this, you know. Or it's like 505 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: when you have these kids, it's like, especially where the 506 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 2: age of that Grayson's at now, which is he's six, 507 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,239 Speaker 2: he's become like my little best friend. Like I'll put 508 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 2: him in the car and we'll drive around and we 509 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,479 Speaker 2: have real conversations, like and I'm blown away by how 510 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 2: smart he is. And that doesn't happen without Canyon putting 511 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 2: in that time. Like, you know, public schools are great, 512 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 2: and I love it, but Kanyon is the one teaching 513 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 2: them how to spell and how to add and how 514 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,400 Speaker 2: to have a conversation. And it's it's just this beauty 515 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 2: that you see that you recognize in your spouse that 516 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 2: is is is otherworldly. It really is, and it really 517 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 2: makes to me to answer Amy's question long, long, long form. Yeah, 518 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 2: it's been really challenging at times, and I won't lie 519 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 2: it's been There's been times where I'm like, why does 520 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 2: everything have to be so hard? You know? And there's 521 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 2: other times like, oh my god, this is the most 522 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 2: magic thing I could ever imagine, and why do I 523 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 2: wait so long to do this. I'm forty eight when 524 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,680 Speaker 2: I had my first kid, and it's like, thank God 525 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 2: I waited that long though, because it was with Kanyon. 526 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 2: When it's with the right person, that's why you do 527 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 2: it right, or that's and maybe it isn't having kids, 528 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 2: Maybe that isn't what a couple needs for us. It 529 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 2: was like the only reason I even thought about getting 530 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 2: married again was to have a family. But it wasn't 531 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 2: a time I met Canyon that I was willing to 532 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 2: do it. And I'm so thankful that I did because 533 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,199 Speaker 2: she was the right person for me. And Jess is 534 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 2: such the right person for you. Like you guys are 535 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 2: like two kindness bombs just exploding together all the time. 536 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 2: It's like I've never met two people that are so 537 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,120 Speaker 2: meant for each other in my life and the two 538 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 2: of you, and it's like so wonderful when you love 539 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 2: someone like I do. You to see Jess come along 540 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 2: and just make you even more lovable, It's fucking mind blowing. 541 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it blows my mind too. I touched on this earlier, Bob, 542 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 3: and I want to hear from you. So you were 543 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 3: forty eight when you had your first kid. I mentioned that, 544 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 3: you know, I'm thirty five and I'm having my first kid, 545 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 3: and there is this I'll be one month, I guess 546 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 3: when our baby is born, I'll be one month away 547 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 3: from turning thirty six, with thirty five years of my 548 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 3: life what I would call being selfish, because that's really 549 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 3: just who I've been, right, I'm living my life. I'm 550 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 3: doing the things I want to do. I'm investing into 551 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,679 Speaker 3: the time and the people that I want to invest into, 552 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 3: you know, And so there is this unique fear, I 553 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 3: guess of how in the world do I kind of 554 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 3: rip that selfishness out of me? And we talked about 555 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 3: it with the Golden Ladies and it was great. But 556 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 3: I would love for you to dive into what it 557 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 3: felt like at forty eight to have your first kid, 558 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 3: living forty eight years of your life without a child, 559 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 3: and still finding the space to not be resentful towards 560 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 3: this fact that this kid walked into your world and 561 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 3: ripped it all up and said, Nope, my time is yours. Now, 562 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 3: how did you make that transitions? 563 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, I would say I I would 564 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 2: be more definitive of the word selfish than you. You 565 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 2: are very kind and giving person. I didn't go anywhere 566 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 2: and dig wells, and I didn't go anywhere and provide 567 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 2: water and all the things that you've done. I was 568 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,959 Speaker 2: somebody who was at every party in Hollywood, you know, 569 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 2: So my my version of selfish is probably a lot 570 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,360 Speaker 2: different than yours. And I mean that necessarily. I think 571 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 2: we're both very kind and very giving people. And I've 572 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 2: known any forever and I love her so much. She 573 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 2: could probably speak to that, like, you're just a different 574 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 2: person than me. I mean, I didn't do the things 575 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 2: that you do, So you saying your selfish, you saying 576 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 2: your selfish is a different version of me saying I'm selfish. 577 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 3: The same idea exists, though, like me doing what I 578 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 3: love to do and you do what you love to 579 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 3: do are the same thing. We both said we love 580 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:48,360 Speaker 3: to do these things. 581 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 2: Right, And I did, and I didn't even I didn't 582 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 2: think I want kidd I didn't think I wanted kids 583 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 2: at a certain point. But I will say this, like, 584 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 2: you know, hosting the Playboy Jazz and Playboy Radio and 585 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 2: all that dumb shit I did for so many years, 586 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 2: and I just thought, oh, I guess that's what I'm 587 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 2: supposed to be doing, and my sister being like you 588 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 2: shallow piece of s you know. I mean, there was 589 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 2: a point where I'm like, my sister, I'll never forget it. 590 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 2: She calls me, She's like, you are not bringing Jennifer 591 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:17,959 Speaker 2: Love Hewitt to the cottage from a Royal day weekend. 592 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 2: I'm like, I didn't even say I was. She's like, 593 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 2: I know you're dating or doda dumb stuff like that. 594 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 2: Like that's to me, is selfish. 595 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 4: Can we just possible? 596 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 5: No? 597 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 2: No, no, We're not going back on there. Point is 598 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 2: what I'm trying to say, is I think that my 599 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 2: I don't know what path of self destruction I might 600 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 2: have been on without my children, but I do know 601 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 2: that I was always pretty mindful in Midwestern about the 602 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 2: way I approach things, which I think is a huge 603 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 2: Badge of Honor with I love Midwestern values and I 604 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 2: love that I love in stewing that in my children. 605 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 2: But I was still kind of like, you know, what's next. 606 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm just every next thing that comes, 607 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 2: I'm just taking it and running with it. And I'm 608 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 2: still surviving. I guess there came a point where I 609 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 2: was like, there's got to be something more than this. Yeah, 610 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 2: And like for me, like I think about like my 611 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 2: relationship with with Canyon, Like I love her and she's 612 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 2: incredibly smart and insightful and intelligent. I don't know what 613 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 2: we'd be talking about ten years later if we didn't 614 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 2: have a kid, you know, And I'm so thankful that 615 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 2: I got something else to focus on besides me. Like, 616 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 2: you know, one of the funniest things that happens in 617 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 2: our life, and this happens literally on a daily basis, 618 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 2: is my six year old Grayson. I'll be like, I'll 619 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 2: take in the McDonald's playland and I'll be like, hey, buddy, day, 620 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 2: can we get French fries? No? Not today. We'll have 621 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 2: a bottle of water. And you know, I'm just like 622 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 2: be complaining the playlin like this right in her house 623 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 2: and He'll go in and literally the woman who's like 624 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 2: a twelve year old McDonald's waitress will walk over with 625 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 2: a tray with a bottle of water on it, and 626 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 2: he'll yell from the playland, Yeah, it's him, he's the bachelor. 627 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 2: You can get a picture with him. I'm like, what, 628 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 2: And it's become so funny, like it's no longer I don't. 629 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 2: I think I was trying to say it earlier tonight 630 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 2: to somebody of it. I was like, I was like, 631 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 2: trust me, it goes from being like a cool thing 632 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 2: to being this like semi famous guy to actually being 633 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 2: really laughable. If you can look at this and laugh 634 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 2: at yourself, then you've actually kind of made it to 635 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 2: the point where I'm actually going to really be your friend. 636 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 2: Because I think I used to always say it to 637 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 2: when they would ask me for advice for the new bachelors, 638 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 2: and I would always go, you're not Ben Affleck, And 639 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 2: if a monkey hands out of flower and doesn't give 640 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 2: one of those girls a flower, she's gonna cry. Think 641 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 2: about it that way and get over yourself, you know. 642 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 2: And I clearly wasn't around for much of the advice sessions, 643 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 2: but that was my mindset of the show was I 644 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 2: was like, get over you, like it isn't about you. 645 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 2: And I got over it really fast with my kids. 646 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 2: If I hadn't been over it previously. I realized really 647 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 2: quickly that the one thing I learned from my children 648 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 2: was it's no longer about me. And I love that, 649 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 2: Like I really love investing in them, and I love 650 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 2: watching them even when they're watching me, because it gives 651 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 2: you a different view of even how to see yourself. 652 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 2: But I've also I want to say this too, like 653 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 2: love your wife more than you've ever loved her in 654 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 2: these times because Kraigan. But I think that it's important 655 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 2: because my dad loved my mom so much and my 656 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 2: dad is no longer with us, and I want my 657 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 2: kids to feel that way about love, like the way 658 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 2: I feel about my dad and my mom's love. Like, 659 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 2: you know, I didn't know their problems. I never saw them. 660 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 2: All I saw was these two people who, no matter what, 661 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 2: they get through it. And so I want my kids 662 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 2: to see that. And so you know, if and we 663 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 2: probably bicker in front of them too much and all 664 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff, which is maybe a good thing, 665 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 2: maybe bad thing. I'm sure there's a doctor's pock book 666 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 2: about all that shit. The point is like, you'll never 667 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 2: love your wife more than when you see her dealing 668 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 2: with your children. And I think you should never let 669 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 2: your children see it more how much you love your wife, 670 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 2: because that's going to be what they see in relationships. 671 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 2: Your daughter needs to know that a man should respect her. 672 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 2: Your daughter needs to know that a man should put 673 00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 2: her first. Right, It's just like my son need to 674 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 2: know that they should put a woman first, in a 675 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 2: woman that they love first. It's important to. 676 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 3: Me, Bob, as I h any other advice. I didn't 677 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 3: ask you for advice, and I would love to have 678 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 3: any advice. You just shared some great stuff about loving 679 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 3: my wife well, and that will sit with me. She 680 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 3: deserves it one and she's great, so that's easy. 681 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 2: You're not gonna always want to though, yeah, because she's 682 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,479 Speaker 2: not always going to be super nice, you know, I mean, 683 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 2: at least you know my experience. But yeah, no, I 684 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 2: think it's I think it's pretty amazing, like when you 685 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 2: go through these moments, especially as your as your daughter 686 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 2: gets older, and I'm assuming you guys will probably have 687 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 2: another kid and stuff, you know, but you know who knows. 688 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. You don't need any advice 689 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 2: from me. Dude, I'm a disasker. 690 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 4: What are you most worried about? 691 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, what are you most worried about? 692 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 3: Is a day? I said it, like the selfishness. Like personally, 693 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 3: what I'm most worried about is this, like this idea 694 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 3: that I've just gotten. You know, when I get you 695 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 3: get married, there's there's things that you kind of not 696 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 3: rip away, but there's different rhythms, different things that you 697 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 3: implement in your life to be a good husband. My 698 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 3: passions and my desires and all those things that haven't 699 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 3: had to change since marriage. Because Jessica, it's like that's 700 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 3: not where I married you. I didn't marry you so 701 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 3: you become some like version of yourself. I married you 702 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 3: to be the best version of yourself, which is increasing 703 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 3: those things. 704 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 2: Which speak her confidence. 705 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's awesome. But with a kid, you know, there's 706 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 3: a whole different like mindset where it's like, no, some 707 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 3: of those things have to be changed, Like a new 708 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 3: version of myself has to exist because my handicap can't 709 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 3: get below a five. 710 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 5: Now every you're playing that, let's go fun and because 711 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 5: like you know, there's just things that have to change 712 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 5: and have to be tweaked. 713 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 3: And I think that's what I'm most fearful of. Is 714 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 3: am I going to be able to do that without resentment? 715 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 3: And am I going to be able to do that 716 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 3: with excitement and joy? That's what I'm fearful of, because 717 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 3: I don't do things well out of resentment. Even if 718 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,359 Speaker 3: it's out of even if it's the right thing, there 719 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 3: has to be a better reason. And I know the 720 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 3: reason is because I want to be a dad that's present. 721 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 3: As Umberto was saying the night, I want to be 722 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 3: a dad that's available. I want to be a dad 723 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 3: that's that's there, not a dad that's like, yeah, I 724 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 3: remember dad playing golf five days a week. Right. What 725 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 3: I'm also, I mean, I think I'm fearful about I 726 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 3: was saying. I was talking to Courtney about tonight, and 727 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 3: I don't think she'll mind me sharing it. We have 728 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 3: the same thing where we have worst case scenario thinking 729 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 3: at night. So when I lay my head on the 730 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,479 Speaker 3: pillar tonight, no matter what I know it, I'll have 731 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 3: some type of negative thoughts flow into my head. It 732 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 3: will be something about I'm assuming tonight of who I 733 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 3: didn't talk to or what I said to somebody, or 734 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 3: maybe I didn't talk to somebody too, like a recap 735 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 3: a recap, and my recaps are always pretty harsh. So 736 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 3: I'm working with somebody right now, harsh on yourself, on myself. 737 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 3: The other side of this is my worst case scenario 738 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 3: thinking when I first got married, was Jessica's going to 739 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 3: work tomorrow morning and night. I start to have these 740 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 3: thoughts and these fears about her driving to work, or 741 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 3: even as silly as like when I got a puppy, 742 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 3: is our puppy in the crate gonna be okay tonight? 743 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:24,240 Speaker 3: Is he thirsty? 744 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 2: You have some anxiety issues. 745 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 3: I have some anxiety issues. And I'm just starting to 746 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 3: figure this out for the first time in my life, 747 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 3: mostly because I started talking to my some my mentor 748 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 3: and my growth coach whatever, gonna call him about this, 749 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 3: and he's like, you have some anxiety issues, and when 750 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 3: you have a baby, this is going to only increase 751 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 3: because you're gonna have a little human that you're like literally. 752 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 2: Responsible for every single thing. 753 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 3: So that's a fear of mine, is how does that 754 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 3: play out? What does that look like? 755 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 4: I think that's the hardest part. 756 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 2: Yeah too, I mean do you know what it is. 757 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 2: It's one of those things that I think I'm the 758 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 2: opposite of you in that regard. Like I I hate 759 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 2: to say it, I don't think about anything. I don't know. 760 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 2: I mean maybe I do and I just don't realize it. 761 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 2: But I think that Kanyon thinks. Kanyon is probably more 762 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 2: like you in that regard, Like she really thinks about everything, you. 763 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:15,839 Speaker 3: See, Jessica doesn't like. 764 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 2: So I think I think jess and I are probably 765 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 2: justin and I like you and Kanyon like in that regard. 766 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 2: But I think that's what makes a good parenting team. 767 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 2: Like you know, if you're both obsessing over every little detail, 768 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 2: what a disaster for that child, right, you got one 769 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 2: of us going back off, you know, I mean Kenyon 770 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 2: and I. I will say this, like Kanyon and I 771 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 2: have the most honest relationship I've ever had in my life. 772 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,320 Speaker 2: And I've been married a lot. No. No, but you 773 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:47,879 Speaker 2: know I say that joking, but you know, the first 774 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 2: one kind of counted, no, But it's true. Like I 775 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 2: think about it, like I never fought with my access, 776 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 2: I never argue with him because I love them and 777 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 2: I cared about them, and we got along and I'm 778 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 2: not saying I didn't care enough, but I the stakes 779 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 2: were what the stakes were, and it was like, does 780 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 2: it matter if I win this argument? 781 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 3: A f f it? 782 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 2: You know. Now we and it's been like this since 783 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 2: our at the beginning of a relationship, though before we 784 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 2: had children, i'd be like, so honest, that was painful 785 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 2: for me because I hate confrontation. So i'd be like, 786 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 2: you know, uh yeah, I call you Canyon because I 787 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 2: dated a girl named Jessica. In fact, i'm still dating her. 788 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 2: She used on an Oscan and my co host is 789 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 2: Jessica and she introduced us, and I just can't keep 790 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 2: it straight in my head sometimes because I, you know, 791 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 2: I think you're all kind of cute. So I'm just 792 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 2: gonna call you Kenyan, and Kenya is like, okay, I'm like, 793 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 2: what the hell? Why is she actually not fighting with me? 794 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 2: And but it was like we like she was so 795 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 2: comfortable and confident in her own skin that I couldn't 796 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 2: I didn't want to not just give her all the 797 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 2: chips on the table. Like so when I think about 798 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 2: like relationships and I think about things like like she's 799 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 2: the one person who I can honestly say, like you 800 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,359 Speaker 2: could bring up anything for my past and I'd go, oh, yeah, 801 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 2: she knows that one. That's a funny one. Remember this one? 802 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, I know that one. Like it was 803 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 2: like one of these things. But what I love about 804 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 2: it is that for our future, it also kind of 805 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 2: sets the stakes in a certain way as well, like 806 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 2: I can trust her with anything. And we kind of 807 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 2: touched on it tonight when I said, when we were 808 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 2: having our second child, my my biggest fear, which was 809 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 2: do I have enough love in me to give to 810 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 2: another kid? You know, like I've never loved anyone the 811 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 2: way I love Grayson are firstborn, and now here's coming 812 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 2: this second child. Holy shit, it's a boy. Do I 813 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 2: have enough love for another little boy? I don't know 814 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,280 Speaker 2: if I can do it. And I was really doubting 815 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 2: myself and I didn't because I was, you know, I'm old, 816 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 2: and I'm like, what the hell, I don't even know 817 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 2: if I have this capability, And trust me, you do. 818 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 2: It's amazing how much I love Blake as well. But 819 00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 2: it's like, you know, I think having that self out 820 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,879 Speaker 2: and having having the ability to kind of like look 821 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,439 Speaker 2: within and challenge yourself a little bit, you already beat 822 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 2: the system.
