Anyways, Ashley, 20 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: as I was hanging out last night, I was exploring 21 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 1: on my Instagram and I saw something that I wanted 22 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: to ask you a question about, but I had to 23 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: wait till this podcast because why would we talk about 24 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: anything uh in life if it wasn't on the podcast. 25 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: You're getting married and part of getting married is exploring 26 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: the avenues at which uh the things you want to 27 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,119 Speaker 1: where during this wedding. And it looks like your wedding shopping. 28 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: Did you pick a dress? What were you doing? Tell 29 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: everybody about it? Okay, So right after I got engaged, 30 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: I got an email from the people at say yes 31 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: to the dress or not say yes to the dress, 32 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: you know, more like Kleinfeld, which is where say Yes 33 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: to the Dress tapes. Um, it's always been a dream 34 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: of mine to go dress shopping there. So that was one, 35 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: you know, well as it checked off the bucket list, 36 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: and I got to bring my grandma. She's years old. 37 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: She barely leaves the house. She leaves the house well 38 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,119 Speaker 1: once a week to get her hair done, but like not, 39 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: she doesn't go into the city like a big to 40 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: do like that. I don't know the last time she 41 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: did it, like five years ago probably, So she came 42 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: into the city. My aunt and my cousin came, my 43 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 1: best friend, and of course my sister and my mom, 44 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: and I've tried on some beautiful dresses. I'm not sure 45 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: if I'm going to say yes to one of them. 46 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: It was only my first stop on the dress tour, 47 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: but I found two I really really liked. Tell us 48 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: about him, I mean, smartly, do they have arms? Do 49 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: they have those? You know what I'm really into, Ashley, 50 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: What do they have arms? And sleeves? The big old 51 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: puffy things that come off the wedding dresses. If there's 52 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: one time in life you can wear a puffy thing 53 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: without getting judged for it, it's your wedding day. So 54 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: I hope your wedding dress is full of really puffy things. Okay, 55 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: so that's what I'm going for. I'm going for a 56 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: princess ball down. I don't think that's much of a 57 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: surprise to anybody who kind of knows me, or at 58 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: least knows of me from the show. Um I I 59 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: I don't remember what I was gonna say. Oh yes, okay, 60 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: So I don't want bling. I don't want them sparkly 61 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: like that. No, like, no bedazzling. I want it either 62 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: lace or satin and I'm kind of going towards lace now. 63 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: I tried on some satin ones and I was like, 64 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: not so much, even though that's what I always imagine 65 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: myself in Did you cry? I didn't, and I felt 66 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: so wrong about it. My sister didn't cry, my mom 67 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: didn't cry. None of us cried. And maybe it was 68 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,839 Speaker 1: because I didn't find the one. Maybe that's a that's 69 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: a sign that the two dresses that I really liked 70 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: aren't the one. But you know, maybe it's just a 71 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: happy shut up. Maybe I'm just like not, I'm just happy. 72 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: If i'm happy, I'm not going to cry. It's not 73 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: like highly emotional like getting engaged, you are getting married. 74 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: I just picture you, like every step the way crying, 75 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: Like you pick out the cake, you cry, you pick 76 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: up the budding dress, you cry like that? Are you 77 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: that emotional? Like in real life? Are you a very 78 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: emotional person? Oh? Yeah, obviously, No, that wasn't very obvious. 79 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 1: I was asking, come on, ben time. Yeah, but it's 80 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: emotional about heartbreak and love and like heartbreak is a 81 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: factor in your life anymore. Okay, okay, okay, So do 82 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: I cry? I'm not heartbroken. I cried a lot of 83 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: times in like April and May, just talking about Jared. 84 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: You know, when you were here and I was talking 85 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: to you about him, I was crying. Well that's weird, though, 86 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 1: isn't it to think that heartbreak is no longer an 87 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 1: option or a thing in your life? Yeah, it's so 88 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: so nice have we have? We talked about how Ben 89 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: when we came to see you at the golf tournament, 90 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: that I was stuck with these two love love birds 91 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 1: I know, or Amy, like yeah, because Ben got to golf. Yeah, 92 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: and then Amy was definitely the third wheel and she 93 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: doesn't she Nobody knows how affectionate we are unless they're 94 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: like with us for the weekend bar fee, but it's 95 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: like just below that. And at one point they made 96 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: me drive and they sat in the back. Well yeah, yeah, 97 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: why could we do that? They were doing an interview. 98 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we were doing on phone interview. That's why 99 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: I think it's a little barfie. Anyway, I had a 100 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: I had a fantastic weekend, guys, and I just wanted 101 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: to just give a little shout out to Kleinfeld for 102 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: being so welcoming for me and being a dream come true. 103 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: And then um, I was able to go to Waitress 104 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: on Broadway, which was amazing. Kathy McPhee is in the lead. Now, 105 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 1: if you you've ever seen the movie Waitress Russell, Yeah, 106 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: Carrie Russell. Kathy McFee is playing Carrie Russell's role and 107 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: she's so good. And then I got to see my 108 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 1: favorite American idol was this American Idol Weekend and that 109 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: just makes little actually so happy. David Cooke and Kinky 110 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: Boots and that was amazing too. What did you do? Ben? Uh? 111 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: You know, like I said, I went to the XBO, 112 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: I worked the expo, and then Sunday I got my 113 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: my bike fixed. I cruised around downtown Denver. Uh, you know, 114 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: with my shades on, my hat pulled back. I'm starting. 115 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: My goal for next year is to complete an Olympic trayathlon. 116 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: So I'm starting slowly like an iron man. Is that 117 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: an iron man? It's close. It's like a three fourths 118 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: of an iron Man. So I'm starting to diet, I'm 119 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 1: starting to ride, get my cardio in shape. I just, 120 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know how much longer in life 121 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 1: I'll be able to do these things successfully. So I 122 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: feel like if I want to cross him off my 123 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: bucket list. I need to do it now. Do you 124 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: think you'll have apps by the time we go to 125 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: Vegas for the radio music? I'll never have apps. What 126 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: would you do with the apps if you had them? 127 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: I would never wear a shirt? Okay, before we get Jason, 128 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: you know who's sitting there to me right now on 129 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: the mic, I want you to ask me a couple 130 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: of crazy things that you think I would never do, 131 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: and then I'll compare it to whether I would ever 132 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: do an iron Man? Ashley? Would you be more likely 133 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 1: to do an iron Man or eat a spider? Willingly? 134 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: Definitely eat a spider? Apps? Freaking lutely. I don't even 135 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: know if even if it was alive. Better. Can you swim? Yeah? Sure, 136 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: I can swim like laps like no. I mean, you know, 137 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: I passed the test when I was in second grade, 138 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: so I can jump off the diving board, Ashley. Would 139 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: you be more likely to complete or participate in an 140 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: Iron Man? Or look at toad? Lick at toad? I'd 141 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: probably do that for a hundred dollars. Yeah. I used 142 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: to actually joke that I would kiss a frog. What 143 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: would happen? Now? I don't have to interesting Okay, here's more, 144 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: one more, one more. Um, Actually, would you be more 145 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: likely to complete an iron man or spend a week 146 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: in the mountains alone? That's scary but definitely more feasible. 147 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: Are you serious? Yes? I remember having to run two 148 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: and a half miles in high school and so yeah, 149 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: we did talk about this and it was the part 150 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: of my week every week.

Okay? Well, 170 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: every week I go, okay, that was my last meal. 171 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: That was the last crappy meal. I can't leave you 172 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: like that again, and then I continue on a whole 173 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: other week of crappy eating. I wrote in my calendar 174 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 1: today today is the first day of my new work out, 175 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: and I just like crushed breath. Yeah. No, I woke 176 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: up this morning, I drank a lot of water, and 177 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: my stomach is really flat, and I'm feeling right now 178 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: like I could start today. And then there were some 179 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: free Jersey Mic subs outside, and I thought, all right, 180 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: I'll take that free food. I can't say free. I 181 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: can't say no to free food. That is going to 182 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: be my ultimate issue in this wedding hiding. I only 183 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: want to lose like seven pounds within a year. Fair enough? Actually, okay, 184 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: will you have somebody planning your wedding? Yes, I plan 185 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: on meeting with the wedding plinner sometime this week or 186 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: my presumed wedding planner. And the final question that I 187 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: got asked is have you picked a location or a date. 188 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: We think it's going to be July or August of 189 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: next you know, we hear from now and then it'll 190 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: probably be in Rhode Island. I think we're probably going 191 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: to look at venues the week after next. Will Ben 192 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 1: be invited? Ben is definitely invited, and so are you, Amy. 193 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: I hear the easiest invite on the planet, because I 194 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: can't attend. Wait, this is such a good question. So Ben, Um, 195 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: I did a little preview of our guest list, because 196 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: we came up with it at dinner like a week 197 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: or so ago, and I put it on Instagram story 198 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: and somebody, you know, the crazy fans, they noticed that 199 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: you didn't have a plus one next your name. Um, 200 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: do you think that? Of course, if you get in 201 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: a serious relationship between now and next summer, of course 202 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 1: you have a plus one. What do you think the 203 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 1: standard sure for adding a plus one should be to somebody? 204 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: I say, a serious relationship, like a serious relationship six 205 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: months or more, where like you've met the other person 206 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: and they are like, yeah, if you've met the if 207 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: you've met the other person significant other, yea. I have 208 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: a different thought on that. I also think if you're 209 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 1: so tight with the person that you can go like, hey, 210 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: you can totally bring someone or not. Oh you know 211 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:33,839 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like, if you're so tight with them, 212 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: let them do what they want. Because sometimes I'm like 213 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: I would never if somebody came up to me, and 214 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: like if Ben were to come up to me, I 215 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: would never be like, oh, Ben, you can't have a 216 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: plus one? Are you kidding me? No way? You know 217 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: who my plus one is all the time. Chris Harrison, 218 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: Oh that's cool, that's really nice. Um. Amy can't come 219 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: to the wedding. Amy can't come to the wedding because 220 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: she hasn't been on a plane since no joke, Okay, 221 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: I can't get there. Then we'll be flying better. Are 222 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 1: you hurt? I mean, you're you get a plus one 223 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: if you get in a relationship so bitter. We can 224 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: see She's like, you have no faith that i'll have 225 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: someone by that. I have faith. I know I'll be 226 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: adding a plus sol I'm next year. Can you snap 227 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 1: a picture of that? Wait, Mark, can you stop a 228 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: picture of that? So we can put that on Instagram. 229 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: He's so bitter. No, no, no, no, not bitter. I'm 230 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: just I'm just processing, like where my like where my 231 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: life has taken me. But Ben, you know that if 232 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: you get in a relationship, you'll be bringing a girl. Yeah. Yeah. 233 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: The plus one thing is interesting. I went to a 234 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: wedding a few weeks ago for my good friend back 235 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: in or Sandiana. She was one of my camp counselor. Okay, 236 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: so listen to this real quick, and I'll be quick 237 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: here because this is probably born to everybody else back 238 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: in the day, I was a church camp counselor. One 239 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: of my campers who was in sixth grade while I 240 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: was the coump counselor. My friend from year of college 241 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: just got married. So I went to the wedding. Um, 242 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: very happy for a great guy, great girl. Awesome. I 243 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: don't have a plus one. I was worried that I 244 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: was showing up to the wedding and I don't I 245 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: didn't know who to sit by. So that was the 246 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: only hard part without a plus one. As you walk 247 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: into a wedding that even though you know a lot 248 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 1: of people there, it's awkward because you kind of walk in, 249 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: you look around, you say, is this seat taken? Somebody 250 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: says yeah, that for my wife, and then he goes 251 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: that seat taken, they say yeah for my girlfriend. It's 252 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: just a weird process. So I hope I don't have 253 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 1: to fall into that actually's wedding because it's gonna be 254 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: really bad when I walk in and I'm like, hey, 255 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: Caitlin and Sean, can I sit by you? And they're like, sorry, 256 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: this is saved for Nick didn't get a plus one, 257 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: Cupcake didn't get a plus one. We just saw all 258 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: you guys would brow out together. That's right, Hey, we'll 259 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 1: grow out together.

Hey, speaking of bros, we have one 261 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: of our most I think this will be one of 262 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 1: our highest listen to podcast.

He really could have just 273 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: been quiet the entire time and been and talked when 274 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: there was an issue that was pertaining just to him. 275 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: I agree, agree, Welcome to the Almost Famous podcast.

That's so New York 332 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 1: state of you trying to break that. No. No, the 333 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: stereotype is the greatest. I love it. We don't normally 334 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 1: see that type of like your Italian right, I'm a 335 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 1: mud I got everything. I have a Jewish mother, a 336 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 1: Catholic father, a loving gay brother and brother in law, 337 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: Modern day America, modern family, modern family, got family. People 338 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: loved your family. Speaking of family, Jason h our listeners, 339 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: the co hosts here, all of us have recently watched 340 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: this season's Men Tell All, Jason, I have a lot, 341 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: a lot of thoughts, a lot of opinions. This is 342 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: all coming from a place of love. Um, but if 343 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 1: if we were honest on this podcast, nobody would listen. 344 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna be very honest during this. I'm gonna 345 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: start out by saying, I thought Colton was way too much. Um. 346 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: I thought he played the big brother. It wasn't something 347 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: that I've ever seen from him. It wasn't the guy 348 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: that we had last week on the podcast Everybody Fell 349 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 1: in Love with I got more emails and actually I 350 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 1: know you. And I did more tweets and emails after 351 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: our interview with Colton last week saying we love Colton. 352 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: We got to know him better, and I felt like 353 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: during the mental All that wasn't the guy that we interviewed. 354 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: Am I totally off here? No? No, he seemed really aggressive, 355 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 1: more to offensive than he ever has been on the show, 356 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: and it was just weird to see him get so 357 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 1: involved in some drama that he wasn't really a fundamental 358 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: part of. Yeah. So my opinion on this is Colton 359 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: is a great guy, and through and through he's always 360 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: been a good friend to me. I will say mentel all. 361 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,479 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was the truest depiction of 362 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 1: his character or what was going on, but what I 363 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: kept doing, I was like kept because they sat next 364 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: to him, I'm hitting him. I'm like enough enough enough, 365 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: because I felt as though, you know, the booze from 366 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: the Cheap Sheats, cheap Seats, he was paying way too 367 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: much attention to and he was coming at like his 368 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: retorts were so aggressive in that manner. So I was 369 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: trying to keep him in line a little bit and 370 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: and check himself because some of the people that were 371 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 1: coming at him in the manner that they were coming 372 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 1: at him, um or just below I think the great 373 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: of man that he is, So I do agree with you. 374 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: I think he did get a little aggressive with some 375 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: of his responses, but in his defense, I think specifically 376 00:19:55,800 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: Jean Blanc, he was grotesque, crude and after him forever 377 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: and ever, and I would have been fine with it, 378 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: but it was when he started getting in the Jordan's stuff. Yeah, 379 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: I agree with that. I said something that was beated. 380 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: I there was a lot of deep in a mental 381 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 1: something really inappropriate, John Blongs, something most inappropriate. Say you 382 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: have ever seen He's never been any more. That's that's cruel, task, 383 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: that's crude, it's disgusting. And I think Colton as a 384 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: person is so above that, and I don't think he 385 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: should stoop down to that level to even acknowledge something 386 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: in that. But I can't I can't understand that opinion 387 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: for sure. I mean, okay, Jason, it's no secret you 388 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,719 Speaker 1: and Colton right now are the guys that we know 389 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: when there's gonna be unless something crazy twist happens, Uh, 390 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: there's gonna be one guy, either Blake or Garrett that 391 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: come into play. Here are are in the running to 392 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 1: be the next lead, to be the next Bachelor. And 393 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: I know that's not when any of you went into 394 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: this believing could happen, or what happened, or wanting to happen. 395 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: But now it sits there in front of you, it's 396 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: a reality. There was nothing about that mentel all that 397 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: made that. Colton did not look bachelor esque during that 398 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 1: mental and I and I know him and he's a 399 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: good guy and he was on the podcast last week. 400 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: But I agree with you, it felt like he stooped 401 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: down to the level of of of the stuff that 402 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: should have been eliminated, like we week seven, like Week six, 403 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: that was that was people who were just there to argue, 404 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: who were just there to lose their minds, And it 405 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: was frustrating to me as a friend. I was frustrated. Yeah, 406 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 1: and I would agree with that as a friend. I 407 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: think I was too. And he would tell you literally, 408 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 1: I'm pinching his leg, I'm whispering, stop stopping. Were better 409 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 1: than this, So um, I do agree. I think some 410 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,479 Speaker 1: of the people got under his skin last week. And 411 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: in his defense, he has an opinion and he wants 412 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,400 Speaker 1: to share it. So um, you gotta credit him for 413 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: speaking up and and being open and honest about where 414 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,719 Speaker 1: he was at. But those guys were digging, and they 415 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: were digging hard, right, and they were hitting him in 416 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: soft spots. I think he's been hit before and it 417 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: was just his sponsor. And you've got to give someone 418 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 1: credit for defending themselves. But at the same time, I'm 419 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: I'm more of the than demeanor of you know what, 420 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: some people are always gonna take shots, and they're probably 421 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 1: gonna take shots because they want to have or be 422 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: what you are, and you can't let that bother you. You 423 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: You gotta stay true to who yourself. And I think 424 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: he did get a little off his game, his rocker 425 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 1: and just just who he is as a person. John 426 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: Blanc was the first. It was the first one, the 427 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: first thing said in the five minutes that you guys started, 428 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: and I think that got him fired up and he 429 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,199 Speaker 1: was like, oh, I'm rolling now, but bad. I don't know. 430 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: Were you ever like a w W F for w 431 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: C w c W fan like wrestling. You you know 432 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: royal rumbles, you remember them? You remember those? Okay, So 433 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:44,639 Speaker 1: I was an only child. I used to take my 434 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 1: Hawk co game stuff. I think jump off my couch, 435 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: hit him down, and beat the living thing. But in 436 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: Royal Rumbles, the boys get in the ring and they 437 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 1: kind of feel each other out and then they pick 438 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: who they're going to go after. It was the opposite. 439 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: I mean we sat down, mits were flying off, punches 440 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: and upper cuts were being given. It got aggressive and 441 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: I got aggressive quick. Do you guys agree? And watching it, 442 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 1: you know, when I was there watching it over the 443 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: course of four hours, I was like, you know what, 444 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: it's actually kind of tame. But when you edit it 445 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: into the final product and you add every little element 446 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: of drama, it was like, wow, this is this is 447 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 1: fist It was feisty. It was supposed to be kissing 448 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: and telling. I think it was a lot more telling 449 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: than kissing. Hey, Mayson, you you know these guys better 450 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: than any of us. You lived with them, you dealt 451 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: with them. Uh what we saw during the mentel I mean, 452 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: even with Colton, is this who they are? I mean 453 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,479 Speaker 1: this Colton? Is he a bear that gets poked easily? 454 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: And why My question with this is because I was 455 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 1: watching this, I know quote I like Colton. Why was 456 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: he such an easy target for so many Outside of 457 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: the fact that Okay, maybe they were jealous. I mean, 458 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: they would have every right to be jealous of you. 459 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 1: Why Colton, I think because you know, Coulton and uh, 460 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: Colton and Jordan's kind of did go at it a 461 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: little bit, right, So I think they had unsettled business. 462 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 1: And I think, as you guys know, you go through 463 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: the show and you think one thing, and then you 464 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: start to see what happens in the I t m 465 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 1: s the interviews and you start to see what people 466 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 1: are saying behind your back, and I think it sparks 467 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 1: a fury for more people, and it's pent up because 468 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: we haven't seen these guys in that long. So I 469 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: think a lot of people have a lot on their 470 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: mind after watching it back, uh, and it was time 471 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: to share that. Obviously, Colton had taken a lot from 472 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: those episodes and he was going to bring the heat, 473 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: and he brought the heat. Coulton and Jordan actually saw 474 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: each other for some time in Paradise, but they really 475 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 1: but you know, they probably hadn't seen the episode. They 476 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 1: didn't see the episodes until now for sure. And I mean, 477 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: let's say Jordan's is Jordan's. He's through and through, He's 478 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 1: the same guy. Here that will be on camera. But 479 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: Jordan likes the attention. He likes to get under people's skin, 480 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 1: and I think he probably had a mission that night 481 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: to do so. And honestly, I think his goals accomplished. 482 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,360 Speaker 1: Art is one step from really screwing himself because he's 483 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: gonna slip soon and say something that isn't funny or 484 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: or modelly or you know, like he was pushing it 485 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: with the making fun of the other guy's outfits. I 486 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,959 Speaker 1: really did not like that. Yeah, so Jordan is like 487 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: the biggest narcissist out there, right, But when you get 488 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: past that, to your point there, he is a little witty. 489 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 1: He does have some funny comments and you can be smart. 490 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 1: He's gotta be because he's quick unless he just sits 491 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: at home and like reverses these lines because the one 492 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 1: he drops line after line. But that being said, I 493 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,919 Speaker 1: do agree with you. I think he's really pushing the 494 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: edge and once he crosses that line, he's gonna lose 495 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people that support the funniness associated with him. 496 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: You know. One of the funniest things to me during 497 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: this whole season and especially mental all, we had him 498 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: here on the podcast and he was great. But is when, 499 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 1: first off, I would never pick a fight with Jordan's personally, 500 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: I can't. I couldn't handle it. You would see me 501 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: curl up in the fetal position, be like you want 502 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: right away? Is all you have to do is dig 503 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 1: one shot at me, and I would be I couldn't 504 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: handle it. But it's when David tries to argue with 505 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 1: Jordan's and it's it is so humorous because board David is. 506 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: It is actually you can tell he's a nice guy. 507 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: He like, for some reason, has this persona that he 508 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: wants to be mean or he wants to like go 509 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 1: head to head with Jordan's. But I don't think I 510 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 1: remember one time there in this season Jason tell us 511 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: from Wrong or one time during Mentel Law that David 512 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: even came close to win an argument with Jordan. And 513 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: that battle, I think David was defeated every single time 514 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: by Jordan's. And the funny thing was he kept going 515 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,479 Speaker 1: at him. That was it was my observation. Jordan actually 516 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: was never I didn't think attacking David. Jordan was responding 517 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: to all the punches he was getting, and when he 518 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: was responding, he was responding with fury and taking down 519 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: nine out of ten of the people and doing so. 520 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: We told him his mate his massive mistake was just 521 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: taking Jordan's so seriously for sure, and I think he 522 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: was way more focused on Jordan's than what he was 523 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: there to do was to build a relationship with BA guys. 524 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,959 Speaker 1: So I had a I had a funny interview with 525 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: some hockey guys from Buffalo today and they said, if 526 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 1: there was one guy I could throw the MITS off 527 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: and take the thread and put it over his head, 528 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: I think it would have been David. David Um. I 529 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 1: do think that during Mental All, or at least getting 530 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: to see like the whole four hours, he almost did 531 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,360 Speaker 1: what he was almost like this is silly. Now I'm 532 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 1: going to back off, because I think Jordan's was like 533 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep playing with him, and he was like, dude, 534 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: it's a guy. I'm gonna chalk my losses off. And sure. 535 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 1: The Mental All is always one of the funniest events 536 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: to me when I was a party, because I was 537 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: at the Mental All during Caitlyn season. I love the 538 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: back row guys that get so heated, like you know 539 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 1: the first day or is They're like, yeah, you know 540 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 1: you were this guy, and you were this guy, and 541 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 1: you're like, you literally had three hours of interaction for 542 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: this show. You watched the show like a fan. You 543 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 1: had no clue what happened the whole Your mental all 544 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 1: was one of the most outrageous to me because it 545 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 1: felt like you had a lot of guys trying to 546 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: get their last words in. Absolutely, I think there's a 547 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: ton of guys and it's interesting are the makeup of 548 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 1: our group, Like you got some of these guys who 549 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 1: are models. You have some people that called themselves social 550 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: media influencers before the show, but they weren't. Half the time, 551 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 1: You're trying to have a conversation of what their career is, 552 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 1: and it just you can't really understand what it is, 553 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,639 Speaker 1: right And it was interesting to see a lot of 554 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: those guys left early. And I gotta give credit to 555 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: Becca because I think she saw through that and kind 556 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 1: of who they were and what their intentions were. But 557 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 1: to your point, those same guys who went home early 558 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: for probably that persona were the same guys that were 559 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: bringing the same heat at mentel all and I think 560 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: some of them are trying to do trying to get 561 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: attention for that. You know, Christian and Jordan or whatever. 562 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: The model walk off or whatever the heck. He's like 563 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: a New York model versus a Miami model. The funny 564 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 1: thing I keep hearing everyone's like, what kills me all 565 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: season is your looks. And I've said back, I'm like, 566 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: this is the most petty, ridiculous off I've ever seen. 567 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: I've seen it for two months now. So I sit back, 568 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: continue to drink my drink and give those looks. What's 569 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: where is that? I understand girls making a big show 570 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: out of women tell all because it's kind of their 571 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: audition for Bachelor in Paradise. But with you, guys, you 572 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: either we're on paradise or you're off. It's no audition anymore, 573 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: right there. So I don't understand what it is. But 574 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: there are a lot of guys are they're seeking that 575 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: attention and they were going all out for it. So 576 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: and it's what it is, you know, to be expected. 577 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: That's what I would say. I will say this, Jason, 578 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: this is credit to you. It's credit to Colton, Uh, 579 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: to Garrett, um and and Blake.

I appreciate that. I 611 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: appreciate I think there's that old adage. It's like, you know, 612 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: life is about ten percent what happens, how you react, 613 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: and if you don't take that into this scenario, you're 614 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: gonna fall on your face. And a lot of the 615 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: guys did and it was tough to see because there 616 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: are a lot of good people that in that show 617 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: that just couldn't handle the ups and downs, and to 618 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: your point, their self defense was just pumping their tires 619 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: for no reason. So thank you for noticing that. I 620 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: appreciate it. Speaking of the ups and downs, and some 621 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: people are able to handle it and some aren't. I 622 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: have something to ask about Blake. Sure, I'm going to 623 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: do it after I ask how did you get your 624 00:31:53,920 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: skin so clear and beautiful? Thing? Alright? Well, as you 625 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: may or may not know, my dad and I are 626 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: very close by my mom's boy.

I love in her door, and 628 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 1: every time I go back to visit her, she's always 629 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: doing something with her face and she's trying some type 630 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: of cream. So I'll be the first one to admit, 631 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna self deprecate myself.

So it's interesting about Blake is 662 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: early on he was very composed, uh, and he was 663 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 1: pretty diplomatic, and he's smart, and he was leading the pack. 664 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: And something happened in Bahamas with Blake, and I'm not 665 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: sure what it was, but he had already had a 666 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 1: one on one and he had been pressing hard at 667 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: the fact that he thought he should have had another 668 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: one on one. And for a guy like me, he 669 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 1: didn't get a one on one until week six, and 670 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 1: he didn't have a week two, and she forgot my 671 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: name week three. You know, was still falling in love 672 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: with her. I'm like, what, so, I think you know, 673 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: in in life and in relationships, battling adversity is huge, right, 674 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: And it's a huge competency of getting over different humps 675 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 1: and building a stronger relationship with your significant other. And 676 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: I do think in the Bahamas and hometowns, and I 677 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 1: think you saw in Thailand, Um, he got more worried 678 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: about the other people involved as opposed Tobecca. Uh. That's 679 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,399 Speaker 1: just an observation from looking back. So UM, I will say, 680 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if that was the state of his 681 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 1: feelings the way they progressed earlier. I'll give him credit there, Um, 682 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: but it does seem that as time passed, Uh, it 683 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: definitely got more difficult with him, and I think a 684 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: correlation to that was a little exposure to his nervousness 685 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: and in dealing with the situation. So who makes a 686 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 1: better bachelor, Blake Garrett or Jason? Jason? Actually? Actually so, 687 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: I actually love all those guys. And I think including 688 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: what I'm skidding you already said, it doesn't I don't 689 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,760 Speaker 1: pump my own tires. Um. I think they're all great guys. 690 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 1: It depends. My answer would be, it depends what they 691 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: wanted out of a bachelor. UM. So I think you 692 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 1: would get different things out of each of those people. UM. 693 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: The one thing I will say that is in common 694 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 1: with all three of them is I can say, from 695 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: the bottom of my heart, all of us are looking 696 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: for that someone. All of us are in that stage 697 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 1: of our life that we are looking for love. UM. 698 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 1: And I think that's as genuine and authentic as it 699 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: will get. So I think regardless of um who pursues it, 700 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:11,879 Speaker 1: who's interested, and who has decided on UM, I think 701 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,359 Speaker 1: they will find love. I think they will find take 702 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:18,280 Speaker 1: this very seriously, and UM, the ending of that journey 703 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 1: will be a positive one. So that that amazing Jason, 704 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: great job there. You didn't answer my question in order Oh, 705 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 1: he's taking he's taking tips from the godfather that I 706 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: called you after like day one, I was out, what 707 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: do you think? Not answering to ask you a question, 708 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:41,359 Speaker 1: I said that we would all do a good job, 709 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: but we would bring different things to the table. What 710 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 1: would you want to see out of the next bachelor 711 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:50,280 Speaker 1: and that would help me identify who could do that best. Yeah, 712 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 1: I don't know how now I'm answering a question after 713 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: you didn't answer mine, but I'm going to do it 714 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,800 Speaker 1: because we're not gonna go back. And this is incredible. 715 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 1: You're doing great, You're great, So I think I think 716 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 1: you're right. You said something which makes me think that 717 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 1: you would be the best. Because a great bachelor bachelorette, 718 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 1: I've always said, isn't you know necessarily who they are 719 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: as a person? Which you want somebody that is looking 720 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:17,320 Speaker 1: for something that's that's a necessity. It's how they react. 721 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 1: And we need the next lead to be somebody that 722 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 1: reacts um in a way that is loving and caring, 723 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: one that is likable. This is that's my big thing. 724 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: We need a likable bachelor and I think all three 725 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 1: of you have that, and I think all three of 726 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 1: you respect people enough to react to situations in a 727 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 1: respectable way. So, um, the next Bachelor, if if I 728 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: were to say, what's the differentiator out of all of 729 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 1: those things, um, we need a really really likable person. 730 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: And what I mean likable? We need a humble, authentic, 731 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 1: genuine person who's willing to admit that they're not going 732 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 1: to do this perfectly so that America and the people 733 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,919 Speaker 1: following can relate and love and feel like they could 734 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: live vicariously through their next Bachelor. And so Jason, I think, 735 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I know Blake, I met Garrett, I know you. Um, 736 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: I think all three of you have that characteristic, but 737 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: I think you've just said it today is you have 738 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 1: an ability to admit your wrongs and to know that 739 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,959 Speaker 1: you you're great, but you aren't that great. And um, 740 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: so I think that's that's the characteristic we need next 741 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 1: next season. Actually, do you disagree? No? That was so 742 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 1: beautifully worded, Ben, That's why that's those are very kind 743 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,919 Speaker 1: words and coming from both you guys, that means a lot. 744 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 1: So I appreciate that. Thank you, So don't mess it up. 745 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm doing what I can. You know, I hosted that 746 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 1: Instagram last week. I wanted to start a petition. I 747 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: would I would love to. I would love to see 748 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: how it work out if the Bachelor did a nationwide 749 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: pole not nationwide, you know, Bachelor nationwide, or it's it's 750 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: like you go to ABC dot com and you'd vote 751 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 1: for your next Bachelor. I think that would be a 752 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: great idea that would win. By the way, when you 753 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: posted that, I instantly blushed, saying I appreciate that. It's 754 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 1: just disgusting. Um, hey, you know we could do, Ashley, 755 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 1: what we can do it right here on the Almost 756 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 1: series thought, oh, hey, Ashley, let's set it up on 757 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: our instagrams and Twitter.

I don't know if we should do 762 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,359 Speaker 1: after the show. Shouldn't we do it after next week 763 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 1: when we know who the runner up is. It's a 764 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 1: good point. Yeah, we could do like a four four 765 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: person bracket after next thing. Okay, next week we'll put 766 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 1: it up. That's fair enough. Hey, Jason, I wanna do 767 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 1: something fun here. Um, it's gonna be a blast. I'm 768 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: always just ask Ashley. Last week I tried to play 769 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 1: a game with her and she wasn't a fan of it. 770 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:54,800 Speaker 1: So I love games too. I'm gonna be Mike Flice 771 00:39:55,120 --> 00:40:00,320 Speaker 1: for a second. Ashley is going to be the executive producers. Okay, 772 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 1: you have you, Bennett Taylor. You have one minute to 773 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: sell us on why you should be the next Bachelor. Okay, oh, 774 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:18,920 Speaker 1: poor guys, all right, let's do it. You're ready. I'm 775 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: gonna start the clock. You have one minute. You're gonna 776 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 1: tell me you're gonna whack me up. Actually I got 777 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: a clock here too, so we'll be on the same page, 778 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: all right, go alright. So my whole twenties weren't dedicated 779 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: to my career. I relocated four times with a bank 780 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: and had seven promotions in eight years. And I earned 781 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 1: my MBA and accounting and finance while working, so I 782 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:40,919 Speaker 1: used the cash flow from my day job to pay 783 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,400 Speaker 1: for that to ensure there was no debt associated with that. 784 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,279 Speaker 1: So I've taken a lot of things seriously. I took 785 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 1: my athletics seriously in college. I took leadership as a 786 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,879 Speaker 1: captain on my team seriously. And I've taken my work 787 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,320 Speaker 1: seriously for twenties. And I'm now twenty nine years old, 788 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 1: and I'm at the point in my life where I 789 00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 1: am looking for a best friend. I'm looking for a 790 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: part her.

And I've 792 00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: never been in a better position to find that, whether 793 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: it's on the show as a bachelor or it's in 794 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 1: a different capacity. That's what I'm looking for, and I'm 795 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 1: in a position to do it. And uh, I'm single, 796 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 1: and let's go.

How about that that dance floor. You lost 799 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 1: me after the first fifteen seconds because I was like, 800 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 1: screwed the bachelor. I have to sit up this man 801 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 1: with my friends. Oh and by the way, apparently after 802 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 1: this was the first one I've ever done. But I 803 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 1: guess I could scrap book now because that thing turned 804 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: out pretty damn good.

Um definitely 906 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 1: definitely my favorite hometown date. And I'm also quite curious 907 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,359 Speaker 1: about your friends for the Gronk, which I hope would 908 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 1: be in the show as well. And I just think 909 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 1: you seemed like over the course of um the season 910 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,040 Speaker 1: like kind of like opened up in the way that 911 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 1: that works well for bachelors and batchelor Us like kind 912 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 1: of warmed up to the to the process, and it 913 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 1: seemed like you kind of got more comfortable as time 914 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 1: went on over over the course of the season, and 915 00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:26,920 Speaker 1: I just don't think we got to see enough of you, 916 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,400 Speaker 1: so I would love to see more. Plus I feel 917 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 1: like you. I mean, this is perhaps the projection and 918 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 1: telling if I'm wrong, but I think it seems like 919 00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:35,800 Speaker 1: you know you'd be like both easy going with taking 920 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 1: it seriously and we'll just have fun with it. And 921 00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 1: I think it's time for a fun season. I appreciate that. 922 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 1: I do you think I'd bring a little spice to 923 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 1: the season. It should be fun um To your point, 924 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,359 Speaker 1: I did open up, but I opened up in the 925 00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,360 Speaker 1: manner that I felt right was for me, and I 926 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:51,760 Speaker 1: stayed true to myself right. So I think at times 927 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,960 Speaker 1: people might say things that they want becca to here 928 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:58,359 Speaker 1: or they want the person making the decisions to here, 929 00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 1: as opposed to saying what they mean and how they 930 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,200 Speaker 1: mean it. So that is something I thought I stayed 931 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:04,800 Speaker 1: true too. And the best part, I think when you 932 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 1: can leave this all and look back and talk to 933 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,359 Speaker 1: your friends and family, and all of them say, the 934 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,759 Speaker 1: same guy we've known growing up was the same guy 935 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:14,359 Speaker 1: that was on that show, and we appreciate it. So 936 00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 1: that was great and that I so thank you for 937 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:19,400 Speaker 1: the kind words.

I think I just think that 991 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:31,200 Speaker 1: like that the waves of Bachelor bachloress is like just 992 00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 1: to go in for the makeout as soon as possible now, 993 00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 1: and just like it also becomes on the talk to 994 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 1: them as far as it seems to me, So I 995 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 1: would say, be a little more judicious and like thinking 996 00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 1: out a little bit more, because you don't want all 997 00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:43,360 Speaker 1: of the women to be mad. You've made out with 998 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:45,800 Speaker 1: so many people, then you definitely made out too any girls. 999 00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:49,360 Speaker 1: I think it would be cool if there was a 1000 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,839 Speaker 1: bachelor bachelor who only made out with their top ten. 1001 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 1: There is something to be said. I think like connecting 1002 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 1: emotionally before physically, I think that that's fair. Oh come on, Jason, 1003 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:01,359 Speaker 1: don't take their side. You know this is absolutridiculous. You're 1004 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: gonna kiss every single girl that walks through that freaking door. 1005 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:07,879 Speaker 1: You don't sit here with your beautiful hair and your 1006 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 1: big old smile and go. You're right, Juliette, something about 1007 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:15,719 Speaker 1: that romantic chemistry before the physical. I'll tell you what 1008 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 1: I think. My mom would instantly stop watching if I 1009 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 1: had to do the after morning fantasy shot. That's that's 1010 00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:26,839 Speaker 1: a little little now. You told me with Access Hollywood 1011 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:29,279 Speaker 1: that you wanted to get that fantasy suite, even if 1012 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:30,840 Speaker 1: it meant you were going to be dumped the morning 1013 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 1: of Well, let me let me correct you. Let me 1014 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 1: correct you. Actually what I said when I believe and 1015 00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 1: you could quote if it was differently, is that time 1016 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 1: was a big part of this game and it was 1017 00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:44,360 Speaker 1: a huge commodity. And of the other two guys, I 1018 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,719 Speaker 1: had the latest one on one, I only had one 1019 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:48,719 Speaker 1: on one. I didn't have a first impression rolls or 1020 00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:51,040 Speaker 1: group date. And I felt as though time could have 1021 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 1: put our relationship in a better position. And to cut 1022 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,200 Speaker 1: it short when I didn't think at the time, there 1023 00:53:56,280 --> 00:54:00,839 Speaker 1: was a real justified explanation from her at dinner. Um, 1024 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 1: you know, I thought time would have helped. But you 1025 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,239 Speaker 1: know just what to say, don't you.

You operate 1031 00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:29,640 Speaker 1: a couple of very successful podcasts, and I want to 1032 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:31,600 Speaker 1: hear about those before we go. But before we send 1033 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:36,080 Speaker 1: you off, somebody like yourself, who was a very busy person, 1034 00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 1: who works very hard, who is an extremely intelligent I 1035 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:39,879 Speaker 1: am a big fan of you, and you know that 1036 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:44,200 Speaker 1: why do you like the Bachelor or Bachelor at like 1037 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:47,640 Speaker 1: somebody like you, why do you why do you enjoy 1038 00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:50,600 Speaker 1: watching I think it's two things. I wanted to totally 1039 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 1: escape this. I don't think I would ever go on 1040 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:55,320 Speaker 1: this show. So it's like just like watching it is 1041 00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:58,959 Speaker 1: an utter fantasy, and just because like at the point 1042 00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:00,640 Speaker 1: of that in my career and sort of you know 1043 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 1: all that no judgments of course, um, and to like 1044 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:09,360 Speaker 1: to that extent when you when I watch it, like 1045 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 1: you you just kind of like put yourself in the 1046 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:13,480 Speaker 1: shoes of whomever, like whoever you like root for You're like, well, 1047 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:14,920 Speaker 1: if I work in a spot, in her spot, like 1048 00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:16,640 Speaker 1: this is what I would do. And so it's just 1049 00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 1: a way of like living out a reality you'll never have, 1050 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:23,440 Speaker 1: like a reality TV and then something that you know 1051 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 1: you can like forecast yourself into that having to actually experience. 1052 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 1: And then on top about like over the last two 1053 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 1: years that I've been doing these podcasts, like it's just 1054 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:33,640 Speaker 1: become so much more popular and it's like a talking 1055 00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:36,279 Speaker 1: point with was like like minded people, and so it's 1056 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 1: like being part of a big cultural phenomena. One thing 1057 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:43,080 Speaker 1: fun question is if you if you did do it, 1058 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:45,719 Speaker 1: what would your entrance out of the limo being a 1059 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:50,279 Speaker 1: good question. That is a good question. Um, I would 1060 00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:52,800 Speaker 1: go a props, but like nothing to extravagant, Like I 1061 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't like ride them on a horse or anything. I 1062 00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:57,320 Speaker 1: think I would do some research on whoever the Bachelard 1063 00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 1: was and like try to find one thing we had 1064 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:02,040 Speaker 1: in common and present something. Because you like, it's so 1065 00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 1: hard to remember everyone's name in the first night, right, 1066 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:09,000 Speaker 1: then you need to Yeah, you need. I mean you 1067 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:10,200 Speaker 1: were one of the first to quiz me on this 1068 00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 1: how do you remember everybody's name? And it's associating whatever 1069 00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:15,600 Speaker 1: they do have the limo with their actual name. So 1070 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:17,439 Speaker 1: I mean, I think, Juliet, you need to come out 1071 00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:21,400 Speaker 1: firing because they need to know who you are.

It doesn't mean I want 1187 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:50,919 Speaker 1: to be out at night. It means that I want 1188 01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:54,240 Speaker 1: to be on the couch at one in the morning. 1189 01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:56,080 Speaker 1: You know what I'm not.

So from Marissa Jason, 1210 01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:25,440 Speaker 1: this is a question for you. It's titled Fantasy suitets 1211 01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:28,080 Speaker 1: Hi Been and Ashley and Jason. I have a question 1212 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:31,600 Speaker 1: about the fantasy sweet dates to the Bachelor's Bachelor. Let's 1213 01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:34,520 Speaker 1: get a day between each fantasy sweet date to process 1214 01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:37,440 Speaker 1: and adjust or do they just wake up jump into 1215 01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:41,360 Speaker 1: the next day? For instance, did Becca wake up from 1216 01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:45,000 Speaker 1: the fantasy sweet date with Blake say goodbye and go 1217 01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:50,160 Speaker 1: immediately to Jason? Jason, do you know what an answer that? So? 1218 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:52,360 Speaker 1: I think you guys can attest to this too. I think, 1219 01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:56,040 Speaker 1: especially at that level, the producers are very respectful of 1220 01:04:56,120 --> 01:05:00,400 Speaker 1: each of the candidates and cast members, and there's played 1221 01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:03,520 Speaker 1: time in between those dates. Um, so I was so 1222 01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:07,080 Speaker 1: much time. I mean I was sequestered in in Thailand 1223 01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 1: when I lost, and I was there for quite some time. 1224 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:13,240 Speaker 1: So that's an indication that there's definitely time gaps in 1225 01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:15,400 Speaker 1: between each date. I don't know what the time gap 1226 01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:19,160 Speaker 1: is because and as you guys know, we don't know 1227 01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:22,880 Speaker 1: who is going when and who is going first. Second, 1228 01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 1: we don't know the timing of anything. Um, so I 1229 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:29,480 Speaker 1: know when I got there early in the morning the 1230 01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,720 Speaker 1: one day, I had the full day to relax, and 1231 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:33,880 Speaker 1: then the next day we had our date. Okay, so 1232 01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:36,440 Speaker 1: you're saying that your entire date happens on one day, 1233 01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:39,080 Speaker 1: but you don't know how many days off the bachelorette 1234 01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:41,760 Speaker 1: has in between. Precisely, we need to ask a bachelor 1235 01:05:41,760 --> 01:05:48,200 Speaker 1: a bachelor at how many days there between. Then I 1236 01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:54,840 Speaker 1: just deferred another question to you. You know, that is 1237 01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:57,840 Speaker 1: one of the most brutal weeks. And I was joking 1238 01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:01,880 Speaker 1: about the sex part because I know for a fact 1239 01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:06,760 Speaker 1: that not every bachelor or bachelorette participates in physical contact 1240 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,480 Speaker 1: outside of maybe some kissing and canoodling, um, during these 1241 01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:13,680 Speaker 1: fantasy sweet dates. But with that being said, they're exhausting 1242 01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:18,560 Speaker 1: because you only have one day or one night to 1243 01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 1: spend with this person without cameras, and so you have 1244 01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:24,040 Speaker 1: I think it's eight hours to kind of break down 1245 01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:26,520 Speaker 1: life in the way that you want to without cameras 1246 01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:29,200 Speaker 1: around and so if you're pulling off an all nighter, 1247 01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:31,560 Speaker 1: you have to have the next day to rest, and 1248 01:06:31,600 --> 01:06:34,080 Speaker 1: so these next days are incredibly important. So there's a 1249 01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:36,520 Speaker 1: full day in between dates. You wake up in the 1250 01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:39,560 Speaker 1: morning from the fantasy sweet date. You have all day 1251 01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,760 Speaker 1: to kind of catch your breath, to sleep, to rest, 1252 01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:45,720 Speaker 1: to probably do some pickup interviews, um, to probably talk 1253 01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:47,720 Speaker 1: to a little press, and then you go to bed 1254 01:06:47,760 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 1: that night and you wake up the next morning and 1255 01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:51,680 Speaker 1: start the next day. So with that, there is a 1256 01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:54,200 Speaker 1: full day in between. It's needed. I don't think anybody 1257 01:06:54,200 --> 01:06:57,440 Speaker 1: could do it for multiple reasons without it. It is 1258 01:06:57,640 --> 01:07:01,760 Speaker 1: I remember that week and it is so so exhausting. 1259 01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:04,040 Speaker 1: So Jason is you're resting and wherever in the heck 1260 01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:06,840 Speaker 1: you got kicked off at, you know, chilling drinking mohitos 1261 01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:09,400 Speaker 1: on the beach in between dates. Becca's out there just 1262 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:15,800 Speaker 1: grinding literally, like talking to people pulling all nighters. Figuratively, yeah, 1263 01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:20,000 Speaker 1: figuratively like talking to people. Yeah, that was a good one, 1264 01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:23,920 Speaker 1: speaking of where you were drinking mohitos on the beach. 1265 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,760 Speaker 1: When you get kicked off during Fantasy Suite week, you're 1266 01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:30,880 Speaker 1: often there left hanging for a while just to have 1267 01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:35,440 Speaker 1: like your one handler or producer buddy who maybe not 1268 01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:37,280 Speaker 1: who did you hang out with, but how many days 1269 01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:40,000 Speaker 1: did you have left in Thailand and what did you 1270 01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 1: do to fill those days, especially since they were so 1271 01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:45,600 Speaker 1: so sad? It was. It was a long one. I 1272 01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:48,760 Speaker 1: think we may have alluded to this in our post 1273 01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:52,360 Speaker 1: interview of the last time we discussed, but it was 1274 01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:54,200 Speaker 1: it was kind of an eye opening time for me 1275 01:07:54,280 --> 01:07:58,400 Speaker 1: because I had literally everything that people would want. Right 1276 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:02,840 Speaker 1: I'm on vacation in Thailand, beautiful village, pool spa. I 1277 01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:05,560 Speaker 1: could get massages, you could get your laundry done, all 1278 01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:08,160 Speaker 1: the food in the world, and at that moment of 1279 01:08:08,200 --> 01:08:10,120 Speaker 1: the moment was like the most empty moment of my 1280 01:08:10,160 --> 01:08:12,240 Speaker 1: life because I didn't have family there and if friends 1281 01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:15,640 Speaker 1: aren't anyone to share it with. Um. And it was 1282 01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:18,639 Speaker 1: about a week or so, so um. There was also 1283 01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:20,760 Speaker 1: some time. You know, I did go back and give 1284 01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:23,920 Speaker 1: her the gift I had made for her, so but 1285 01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,479 Speaker 1: there was a ton of downtime and it was difficult 1286 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:28,600 Speaker 1: at that point. I mean, everyone's had a breakup in 1287 01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:30,559 Speaker 1: their life, and I don't know about you guys, but 1288 01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:33,120 Speaker 1: I rely on family and friends to kind of get 1289 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:35,519 Speaker 1: me through those tough times and did not have them there. 1290 01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:38,519 Speaker 1: It was pretty difficult. It wasn't easy. Um, so you 1291 01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:41,040 Speaker 1: didn't get to enjoy Thailand until it's fullest. But it 1292 01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:44,640 Speaker 1: was a great learning experience. Um, Jason be you know 1293 01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:48,000 Speaker 1: we're getting ready close out this podcast. I think one 1294 01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 1: of the most pointed moments of this whole experience for 1295 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,040 Speaker 1: you is when you went back to give her the gift. 1296 01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 1: What went through your head? Why did you do it? Yeah? 1297 01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:57,000 Speaker 1: So honestly, it ended so abruptly. And when I say, 1298 01:08:57,080 --> 01:09:00,559 Speaker 1: I know Becca talked about blindsiding me, but I had 1299 01:09:00,760 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 1: no proportional behaviors or responses from her during that day 1300 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:06,360 Speaker 1: and when she had walked away and you see that 1301 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:10,000 Speaker 1: she was going through this um episode where she couldn't 1302 01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:13,320 Speaker 1: see our future, I had no indication of that. After that, 1303 01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:15,759 Speaker 1: her and I actually stopped at one place where drinking 1304 01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:20,000 Speaker 1: and everything was great. So it ended abruptly. I felt 1305 01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:22,479 Speaker 1: that our relationship was deep. She had brought my friends 1306 01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,439 Speaker 1: out during the time to surprise me. I had met 1307 01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:28,160 Speaker 1: her best friends, she had met my family. We had 1308 01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 1: deep conversations about family and lost loved ones and what 1309 01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 1: they meant to us. And I felt that I just 1310 01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 1: the way we ended it just didn't do what we 1311 01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:39,000 Speaker 1: had justice. So two things I wanted to do was 1312 01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 1: one uh ended with character in class, shut the door 1313 01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:44,479 Speaker 1: in the right manner to feel good about moving on. 1314 01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:47,559 Speaker 1: And then two was to give her the book that 1315 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:50,360 Speaker 1: I honestly put a lot of hours into and was 1316 01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:53,599 Speaker 1: really just a still full story, everything from I had 1317 01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:55,759 Speaker 1: a name tag in there, hello, my name is Jason 1318 01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:59,320 Speaker 1: the day she forgot it, that to some of the 1319 01:09:59,439 --> 01:10:03,240 Speaker 1: more deep tell and telling and uh emotional dates and 1320 01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:05,760 Speaker 1: connections we had. So that's you know. I didn't go 1321 01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:07,680 Speaker 1: back there trying to get her back or anything of 1322 01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:10,160 Speaker 1: that nature. It was just closed the door the right way, 1323 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:12,160 Speaker 1: give her a gift I had prepared to give her, 1324 01:10:12,520 --> 01:10:14,680 Speaker 1: and um, I feel good about it, and I think 1325 01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,800 Speaker 1: she does too. We talked about how getting broken up 1326 01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:19,639 Speaker 1: with or breaking up with somebody in the bachelor bubble 1327 01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:22,240 Speaker 1: is different because you don't necessarily get the closure that 1328 01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:25,639 Speaker 1: you would in real life. It's so weird because usually 1329 01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:27,760 Speaker 1: in real life you're like, oh, i'll talk to him 1330 01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,559 Speaker 1: again next week, or like it'll be It's sort of 1331 01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:34,240 Speaker 1: a good drifting situation, but not for the bachelor. When 1332 01:10:34,280 --> 01:10:36,720 Speaker 1: did you start feeling better. Yes, So I think first 1333 01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:39,200 Speaker 1: of all, you don't get closure, um, and then you 1334 01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:41,519 Speaker 1: start feeling better. It's probably like a few weeks after 1335 01:10:41,600 --> 01:10:44,320 Speaker 1: it and you realize that you know she's doing well 1336 01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:47,080 Speaker 1: and she's finding her happiness and it is what it is. 1337 01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:50,439 Speaker 1: But I think the most difficult thing isn't about maybe 1338 01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:52,960 Speaker 1: the closure when you feel better. The most difficult thing 1339 01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:55,600 Speaker 1: is reliving it all over again. Because I'm at a 1340 01:10:55,640 --> 01:10:58,320 Speaker 1: point now I'm good. I feel good about what happened 1341 01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:00,840 Speaker 1: and the experience, and I'm happy for the happiness she's 1342 01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:05,040 Speaker 1: gonna find. But to watch that episode again last week, 1343 01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:07,759 Speaker 1: that was tough. Man, it was heart wrenching that. Really, 1344 01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:09,880 Speaker 1: it was difficult. Even though I'm over. I'm in a 1345 01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:13,280 Speaker 1: better place now, it's never good to relive experiences like that, 1346 01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 1: and um, you know, with this journey you have to 1347 01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 1: al right, well, let's let's end this on a on 1348 01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 1: a lighter note. Um. Kate writes us a question, and 1349 01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:25,479 Speaker 1: I'm not even sure any of us know the answer 1350 01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:27,920 Speaker 1: to this. She goes, I love your podcast list. And 1351 01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:31,080 Speaker 1: every Tuesday morning, right after feasting on everything that is 1352 01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:34,639 Speaker 1: Bachelor and Bachelorette. The night before after watching last week's episode, 1353 01:11:34,640 --> 01:11:37,080 Speaker 1: I had a question when the date cards come from 1354 01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:40,800 Speaker 1: the Bachelor Bachelorette, is it really them who wrote it? 1355 01:11:40,920 --> 01:11:44,160 Speaker 1: Or does a producer write it? The handwriting always seems perfect. 1356 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,839 Speaker 1: I can only imagine my terrible handwriting on a note, Also, 1357 01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:51,320 Speaker 1: is that Chris Harrison's handwriting on the fantasy suite guard 1358 01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:55,599 Speaker 1: enquiring minds want to know. I have no idea who 1359 01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:59,120 Speaker 1: writes them, but in my whole four seasons, the handwriting 1360 01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 1: has been the exact same. Yeah, I mean this might 1361 01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:04,120 Speaker 1: actually be something I have to prefer to Ben because 1362 01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:07,559 Speaker 1: I don't know either, But sorry Ben, But honestly, like 1363 01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:10,840 Speaker 1: the handwriting is absolutely perfect, and Chris Harrison the guy 1364 01:12:10,960 --> 01:12:14,679 Speaker 1: is smooth and karis medic and confident, well spoken. There's 1365 01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:17,880 Speaker 1: no darn way that is handwriting is that smooth? They 1366 01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:19,479 Speaker 1: just can't be. But if there's one guy that can 1367 01:12:19,520 --> 01:12:21,719 Speaker 1: pull it off and be him, I have to imagine 1368 01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:23,920 Speaker 1: that someone else. Do you have some intel? Is that 1369 01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,200 Speaker 1: when you were the Bachelor and you actually saw them 1370 01:12:26,200 --> 01:12:28,559 Speaker 1: do it. Yeah, there's a reason why it's the same 1371 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:32,000 Speaker 1: season overseason. It's not Chris Harrison. But Chris Harrison does 1372 01:12:32,040 --> 01:12:34,400 Speaker 1: have a say in the day cards, and it's actually 1373 01:12:34,439 --> 01:12:36,960 Speaker 1: kind of an interesting process on how the wording of 1374 01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:40,559 Speaker 1: the day cards gets done. So that's just like most 1375 01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:44,439 Speaker 1: things on the show. Right, Chris, you know, is overseeing it. 1376 01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:47,000 Speaker 1: He knows all about it, but you need help. If 1377 01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:49,559 Speaker 1: you think Chris Harrison come with forty day cards and 1378 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:52,560 Speaker 1: those little what he's saying, it's time over time, you're crazy. 1379 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:55,080 Speaker 1: And so it's actually a little group effort that comes 1380 01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:58,439 Speaker 1: up with him. And then there's somebody on staff that 1381 01:12:58,439 --> 01:13:00,400 Speaker 1: writes the day cards who has a good writing and 1382 01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:04,240 Speaker 1: so there's times I'm not playing. There's times where you're 1383 01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:06,479 Speaker 1: in some foreign country and whoever was doing it in 1384 01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:09,720 Speaker 1: Los Angeles can't do it in that country, and so 1385 01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:12,759 Speaker 1: whoever is there steps up and their handwriting gets displayed 1386 01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:15,320 Speaker 1: for all to see, and it's never Chris Harrison. I'm 1387 01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:17,080 Speaker 1: also going to give a clue for anyone that goes 1388 01:13:17,120 --> 01:13:19,400 Speaker 1: on this show in the future. A good way to 1389 01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:23,360 Speaker 1: indicate how out there some of the people are is 1390 01:13:23,400 --> 01:13:25,200 Speaker 1: they put these cards out there and they're kind of 1391 01:13:25,240 --> 01:13:27,200 Speaker 1: like riddles and you have to come up with what 1392 01:13:27,240 --> 01:13:30,400 Speaker 1: it could be. So just listen very carefully to how 1393 01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:33,320 Speaker 1: people speculate what these riddles are, and I'm like, yeah, 1394 01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:36,519 Speaker 1: that dude's crazy. This guy has no idea about anything, 1395 01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:39,320 Speaker 1: and that dude's really smart. So I use that and 1396 01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:43,479 Speaker 1: worked out. That's where you're always guessing them. That's always 1397 01:13:44,040 --> 01:13:46,880 Speaker 1: you're always guess the ideas. People kind of like, dude, 1398 01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:50,160 Speaker 1: are you out of your damn mind? They do, they 1399 01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:53,479 Speaker 1: pause us and they're like, Okay, guys, let's debate over 1400 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:56,200 Speaker 1: what the car means for the next half an hour. 1401 01:13:56,640 --> 01:13:59,599 Speaker 1: And some people who have a realistic ideas and other people, yeah, 1402 01:13:59,680 --> 01:14:01,519 Speaker 1: we're going to fly in New Zealand. Dude, are you 1403 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:04,760 Speaker 1: out of your mind? I'm staying away from that. I 1404 01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:07,200 Speaker 1: would love it.
