My? 6 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: You know what I've done this last week? I've started 7 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: going to bed listening to the Spotify station meditation. So 8 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 1: I had these headphones in and I go to bed 9 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: listening to it, and I feel like I am sleeping 10 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 1: so well, really, I used to do that too, But 11 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: I have a question about meditations and so trendy these days. 12 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: Do you actually clear your mind or just think about 13 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 1: one thing constancy on one thing or is it more 14 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 1: of like getting you into like a peaceful internal state. 15 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: I'm not good at meditating. I don't think my mind 16 00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: like goes in a thousand directions. And so I was 17 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: telling my counselor this and they were saying that I 18 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 1: need to practice this thing. I think it's called like, uh, 19 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: focus concentration. So I pick a feeling and emotion or 20 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: a word that I want to focus on, So like 21 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: joy is a good one, right, And you just continue 22 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: to say joy in your like in your mind, and 23 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: like as soon as your mind starts to drift away, 24 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: you just go back to it, and like you you 25 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: start over and you just say joy and joy and 26 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,119 Speaker 1: you kind of breathe it and you start to try 27 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: to start it, you try to start to feel it. 28 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,119 Speaker 1: And I I think I'm okay at it. I don't 29 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: think I'm great, but it helps me at least try 30 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: to stay focused and like relax and take away all 31 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: the stresses that you know, maybe came with the day. Interesting, Okay, 32 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: all right, I can get into that. It's trendy.

It means 41 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 1: nothing more than the care and nurture and be a 42 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: friend to those around you.

She shared her 48 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: story of her We called it a process to motherhood 49 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: and she shared a story you know, a few months ago. 50 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember, but I had mentioned 51 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: during the podcast that, uh, you know, I was learning 52 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: um a lot, that like people's stories really matter and 53 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: that you can't assume. And my mom shared her story 54 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: and the reason you know, where that came from and 55 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: why I learned that. So it was really powerful for me. 56 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: I'm really proud of her, and I don't know, it's 57 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: just special to to hear that and to know that 58 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 1: my mom is strong and courageous and she's speaking her story. 59 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: Now that's one of that's not easy to share, and 60 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 1: she did last night. So I got to talk to 61 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: her on Instagram live. That's awesome. Um, I have to 62 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: watch those. So it's every Sunday at what time, eight 63 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: seventh Central. Uh, it's been really fun. We've I've had 64 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: some of my favorite people on and and it's just 65 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: been a good just a good time to learn that 66 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: you know, all of us are pretty messed up. We 67 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: all got our issues. Um, we're all struggling at some level, 68 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: but you know we're not alone. And it's been a 69 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: good reminder for me and just hearing from some really 70 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: bright minds. So, yeah, what about you. How was your 71 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: mother's day? My mom had a good day, Like we 72 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: just we just had a good day. Um. We planned 73 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: on like picking up maggianos, but that failed because every 74 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: single straw in the area was totally jam packed, no 75 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: longer accepting like any online orders. So I scrambled and 76 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: I put together this macaroni and cheese and broccoli cast 77 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: role and she was like, this is better than anything 78 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: you could have ordered. And we just had like a 79 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: nice family meal. And uh, what else did I do 80 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: with my mom yesterday? Are you a chef? Do you 81 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: cook a lot? Um? I like cooking, I really do. 82 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: I don't have like a ton of recipes under my belt, 83 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: though I wish I could expand beyond pasta because that's 84 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: definitely my specialty. Um, and I've been trying to eat 85 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: a lot less meat lately. Um, so it's kind of 86 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: hard to come up with things that will learn pasta 87 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: to make when you're trying to be better about being 88 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: like a little bit more Presbyterian. Well, it's one of 89 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: the reasons we're doing What's Cooking vatch Nation, our segment 90 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: that will come at the end of this episode, at 91 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: the end of every episode during self isolation, where a 92 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: bachelination contestant shows us and teaches us maybe a new 93 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: recipe to cook. I would love to learn some new ones. 94 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: Do you think your mother left Mother's Day feeling loved? 95 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: She did? I know this. She's like, it was a 96 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: really good Mother's Day. It just like doesn't really matter 97 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: what you do or what you give her, as long 98 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: as you spend that quality time, which I've gotten eight weeks, 99 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 1: which is super awesome. I've loved it. I know I'm 100 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 1: gonna just keep thinking about the separation anxiety I'm going 101 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: to have for my mom and my dad when we leave. 102 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be really hard. I think it will 103 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: be an adjustment. I would imagine it's going to be 104 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: adjustment kind of getting back into the swing of things. 105 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, Yeah, like wait, we record from home. 106 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: I can stay here with my sweats and not have 107 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: to drive out to the bourbon um. Well, ash I'm 108 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: glad your mom had a great day. And uh and 109 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 1: if somebody out there is wanting to watch, it is 110 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: on Instagram live my mom's story and it is one 111 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: that I think will help listeners to this hope me 112 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: them make a lot more sense of me and why 113 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: I am the way I am and what probably annoys 114 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: them about me and why that is and where my 115 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: story comes from as well. So, hey, Ashley, bachel Nation 116 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: again has not stopped with the headlines, So let's take 117 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: a break. When we come back, we'll talk everything going 118 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: on in Bachelor Nation this last week since the last 119 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: time we talked. ABC is still planning on making a 120 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: new season of The Bachelor. This according to Chris Harrison 121 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: we read on BuzzFeed, but Chris says it will likely 122 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: move to a different state. Yeah, so he doesn't think 123 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: that California is ready as far as like being calm 124 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: with COVID to start filming in the state. Um. He 125 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: thinks that they should go to a different state where 126 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 1: the spread I guess isn't so rapid and that they 127 00:06:55,240 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 1: are getting more accustomed to life outside the home. He singests, Texas, 128 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: which I think is interesting since that's his home state. Um, 129 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,679 Speaker 1: but I guess it really doesn't matter where they film 130 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: because it looks as if they'll be renting out a 131 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: resort hotel and filming the entire season there without any travel, 132 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: So I don't think it's gonna affect the vibe in 133 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: any way. Do you think we'll ever see the Bachelor 134 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: Mansion again? I mean, I know we talked about this 135 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. I think it's gonna be 136 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: really tempting to not use the Listen to your Heart 137 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: mansion for everything going forward. It just seems like a 138 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: more comfortable living environment, and now with a year away 139 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: and remove from it, you know, the fans will be 140 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: removed from an even longer. I wonder if there'll be 141 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: a pull back there be interesting to see what happens, 142 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: but who knows. It sounds like they're working though, to 143 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: make a Bachelor season happen. I know also they're working 144 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: behind the scenes to do these like recap shows that 145 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: we talked about a few weeks ago as well, where 146 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: they kind of highlight a season in in like a 147 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: three hour period of time. So the producers at the 148 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,559 Speaker 1: Bachelor are busy at work. Oh. I should also mention 149 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: that Chris Harrison says that he's not okay with it 150 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: being a Zoom season, and I don't think any fan 151 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: would be either. No, I don't think that. I think 152 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: that would be a whole new show, and I think 153 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: it'd be really hard to get into. Firstly, Caitlin Bristow, 154 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: Tanner Tolbert, and more members of Bachelor Nation react to 155 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: Chris Soul's and Victoria Fuller's relationship. This, according to US magazine, 156 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: So funny how people are just so weirded out by 157 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 1: this couple for some reason. I'm not that weird out 158 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,719 Speaker 1: by it, because I mean, are we supposed to think 159 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: that every couple makes sense on paper in life? No, 160 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: we don't know Victoria like how she is in real life, 161 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: and you and I know Chris, and who knows. Maybe 162 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: they're compatible or maybe they're the perfect like ying Yang 163 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: sweet sour salty mix right where she's a little bit 164 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: more out ooken, a little bit more outgoing. Um, she's 165 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: she's got a little bit more of an attitude. And 166 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: then Chris is so laid back and just sweet and 167 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: go with the flow that perhaps like it's really a 168 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 1: good combination. I have we yet to get officially confirmed 169 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: that they are dating. No, I mean like she pretty 170 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: much confirmed it, being that she took a picture and 171 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: made the geo tag um Iowa. Wait, what what's his state? 172 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: What's his town? NYA? Oh shoot, I don't know, it's 173 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 1: a sat Yeah. Well, yeah, that that would be a 174 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: pretty good hint. I don't know why she'd be passing through. 175 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: There was that, and then they also took and posted 176 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: the same picture of a sunset to their Instagram stories. 177 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: It's kind of cute. I mean, but can we talk 178 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: about the pressure on a new relationship. You're talking about 179 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: like probably never having met each other in real life 180 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: to being quarantined for what seems to be I don't 181 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: know if she's still there, but like she was, there 182 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 1: were at least two weeks, two or three weeks. How 183 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: do you go from no time together to three straight 184 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: weeks of no a long time? It would be a 185 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: big change. Now. Granted, I think Chris is property so 186 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: big that if they need to get away, they could, 187 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean that is but I also feel 188 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: like we've seen some successful quarantine relationships obviously announced Peter 189 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: and Kelly are together. Uh, you know, Jessica and I 190 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: had never spent um as much time as we're spending 191 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: together now. I know you and Jared are getting good 192 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: like marriage time with your families. It feels like people are, 193 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,479 Speaker 1: if they're able, spending some really quality time with their partners. 194 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: And I haven't heard of any massive fall out yet. Yeah, 195 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: me neither, So we'll see. Hannah Brown's mom appears to 196 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: throw shade at her daughter's ex, Jed wyatt Is. According 197 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: to e Online. Okay, so this week, Hannah's mom posted 198 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 1: an Instagram. It was her brother's birthday, so her son's birthday, 199 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: and the caption read this, thank you God for letting 200 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: him stay with me a little bit longer. You listen 201 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: to my prayers and he is going to have a 202 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: wonderful life. She this is captioned with the photo being 203 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: a picture of Patrick, and then it says the best 204 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: mother's day anyone could ask for. And I don't have 205 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: a son in law that hurts my ears when he sings. 206 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: So there's the shade, very random, thoughtful message towards her son. 207 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: And then she says, glad I don't have a son 208 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: in law that doesn't hurt my ears. When he sings 209 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 1: with a prayer hands emoji, it says prayers have been answered. 210 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: That she went Adam, she went hard. I know, but 211 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: it's so random. It's so random, like, yeah, you're talking 212 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: about your son and then all of a sudden you 213 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: talk about your possible son in law from a year ago. Yeah. 214 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: That she did not She did not take to go 215 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: lightly at jed She went hard at him. Um. It 216 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: must be an inside joke maybe. But then Hannah goes 217 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: on and writes underneath the photo saying, mom, we should 218 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 1: probably make some edits to this, which is a pretty 219 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: funny response. Mm hmmm. Uh well. Another headline of Hannah 220 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: Brown Bachelor at Hannah Brown says she's single but definitely 221 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: wants to be in a relationship. That's according to people. 222 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 1: Not much more to this story except for the fact 223 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: that Hannah has been single for pretty much a year now, 224 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: and she says she hasn't been ready to date until 225 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: just about now. However, of course, the quarantine situation just 226 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: not making that easy. It's uh, you know what, I'm 227 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 1: still there's so many Hannah and Tyler topics that come 228 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: up week to week. Can we call it insane. It 229 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: is insane. This one's the next is Tyler Cameron reveals 230 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,479 Speaker 1: the heartbreaking reason he's not ready to date. So basically, 231 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: this says that Tyler's mom, of course, passed away a 232 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: couple of months ago, and that right now he's focusing 233 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: on taking care of his brothers. Both of them are, 234 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: you know, significantly younger. His youngest brother is twenty years old, 235 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: and he just feels like it's his place to kind 236 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: of take over that nurturing role for them, and he 237 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: doesn't think it's the appropriate time to start dating someone new, 238 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: especially of course and quarantine well in the same breath. Actually, 239 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: Tyler Cameron wants to set up his dad with bachelorette 240 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: pal Dylan Barber's mom. This according to US Magazine. Yeah, 241 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: so we know that Dylan's father passed away a couple 242 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: of years ago. He talked to us about that in 243 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: the in depth episode, and his mom seems to be 244 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 1: ready to date. And Tyler's dad, who divorced his mom, 245 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: who you know recently passed away, um over a decade ago. 246 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 1: I believe, um. They they're both single, they both seem 247 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: ready to mingle, and Dylan and Tyler being good friends 248 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: and want to set their parents up. It makes sense. Well. 249 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: Moving on from Tyler in Hannah, then, Chris Harrison did 250 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 1: some very point of interviews over the last few weeks. 251 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: He's been out in the news talking and it's kind 252 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: of interesting to hear his perspective. Very interesting. I think 253 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: Chris Harrison calls Peter Webber a mess and says he 254 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: wants to scream at him.

And what was Peter 269 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: supposed to do. Did he at any point say he 270 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: agreed with Barb or was this just say hey, I 271 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: don't I feel terrible for Maddie.

But 336 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's going to be like a 337 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 1: follow doc or if it's going to be more of 338 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 1: like a fireside chat like it was this episode. Well, 339 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: as usual, Caitlin Bristow is out there just rocking and 340 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: rolling and we're a big fan of that. Ashley, it's 341 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: time for us to take a little break. When we 342 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 1: come back, we're gonna break down this week's episode of 343 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: Listen to Your Heart, then bring in Matt from Listen 344 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: to Your Heart to speak to him about the show, 345 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: and finally we're gonna do a what's cooking Batch Nation segment. Ashley, 346 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:42,360 Speaker 1: we'll be back this week's Listen to Your Heart. It's 347 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: getting down to the end, which means that we would 348 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,959 Speaker 1: expect drama to ensue. Ashley, what do you think of 349 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: this week? Break it down? Hey? We uh man? This week? 350 00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 1: What do you think I'm thinking? Right? Now, what do 351 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: you think I'm thinking, Ben, I think you're sad. Yes, 352 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: I think you're sad. Go ahead, let it out. I'm 353 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: so upset. I mean, I know obviously that Ryan and 354 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 1: Natashi don't have some amazing romance. I don't think they 355 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: have anything at all. They gave him the least romantic 356 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: date there could be. They played with like construction machinets, 357 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: they played with bulldozers. Um. I thought that they were 358 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: ignoring their relationship most of the episode, and I thought 359 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: like they were doing so because they just wanted us 360 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: to focus on their performance, because their performances are so strong. 361 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: But to go from last week's amazing performance that I 362 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: watched four times over and over again, yeah, to this 363 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: week's performance, which I have to admit was pretty darn sucky. 364 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: But then to eliminate them because of one crappy performance 365 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 1: that was upsetting. But I also was very, very prepared 366 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: for it because the other couples are so much stronger, 367 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: and I think at the end of the day, the 368 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: show is still a Bachelor show and the love is 369 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: going to trump the performance. So I'm very sad, but 370 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: I'm at least happy that it was like five of 371 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: the six episodes. Ryan was president. Uh, and I know 372 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: there's just one episode that I'm going to have to 373 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: get through without my my boy band Broadway musician. You know, 374 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: he's super talented, they both are. It was not the 375 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: right song for them. It felt weird. It was weird, 376 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: and like the arrangement and the fact that she left 377 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: up and saying a different verse. I was like, did 378 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: they do that on purpose? Did some did somebody tell 379 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 1: her to do that so they could just like flounder? 380 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 1: I don't know. I thought that they think may have 381 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: been told the flounder on purpose because their relationship wasn't 382 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: strong enough. Okay, that's all. Well, if we started the 383 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: beginning of the episode here, the couples this week are 384 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: Matt and Rudy, Jamie and Trevor, Chris and Bree, Ryan 385 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 1: and Natasha. Chris Harritchinson arrives at the mansion and as usual, 386 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: he has big news for the contestants involved. He said, 387 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: they're heading from the mansion and going to Las Vegas. 388 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: So they jump in their own tour buses and get 389 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 1: on the road. So I'm gonna stop here and actually 390 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: think one of the funniest parts about this to me 391 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: was they're acting like this is a long road trip. 392 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: It's like a four hour drive. All they're gonna get 393 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 1: to know each other so well in the four hours. 394 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 1: I said the same thing to my mom. She's like, 395 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: oh my god, this is so cool. It's like, Mom, 396 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna be on the bus for four hours. Um. Also, Ben, 397 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: I couldn't stop thinking about the cost of a tour bus, 398 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:51,239 Speaker 1: having known how much your tour buses cost for a 399 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 1: week of being out on The Bachelor Live tour. It 400 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: is not cheap at all. It's very, very not economical. 401 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 1: So you're looking, You're looking at these tour buses. I'm thinking, 402 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: how cool it is. I just got off tour and 403 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 1: it was awesome, Like it was such a cool like 404 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: experience for me personally, and to live on a tour bus. 405 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: It was a big change, but it was fun. It 406 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: was exciting. So hey, you get a four hour drive 407 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: from l A to Vegas. The funniest part is these 408 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 1: couples are getting out and like, I remember one of 409 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: the couples I forget, who's like, oh, we watched a 410 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: couple of movies and struggled. You ever you watched movies, 411 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: you only have time for like maybe a movie and 412 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 1: a half by a time that Hanks starts totally. I 413 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: was like, you wasted your alone time with with the movie. Well, 414 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: I guess like when I don't know, I Jared and 415 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 1: I kind of did that in our fantasy sleep. People 416 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:46,479 Speaker 1: are like, what did you do? I was like, well, 417 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: we watched a TV show in the morning. It was 418 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: really nice to watch TV because you've been without TV 419 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,679 Speaker 1: for like two weeks at this point. It's uh, you 420 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: know what it was. It was sweet. I get why, 421 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: and I'm sure, I'm sure it was fun on So 422 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 1: I don't want to poo poo their tour from l 423 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: A to Vegas, but let's be serious. Let's be honest. 424 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,880 Speaker 1: Most people would drive from l A to Vegas for 425 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: like even a day just to kind of hang out 426 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: in in the city.

You know. 431 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: All those teases about them getting married in a little 432 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: white chapel were, of course just that teasus it kind 433 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: of felt like they could though, Like this couple is legit. 434 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 1: I felt like they could too. I wouldn't have been 435 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 1: surprised if they did. I would have been like, Yeah, 436 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be together forever. And based on 437 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: the fact that we had that conversation with Breed last 438 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 1: week and she keeps talking about them in the present tense, 439 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, they're still a geller and I feel 440 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: like I think they're gonna end up together. Could I 441 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 1: go as far as to say this is one of 442 00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: the most uh what I want to say, like noticeable 443 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: uh connections that I've ever seen on a bachelor's show, 444 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: the two of them together, Yeah, I would say that 445 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 1: it feels very peacefully. It's something to celebrate. Yeah, it's 446 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 1: very celebratory. Um So the date Carniver two comes in 447 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: your leve will keep you warm. This is to Trevor 448 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: and Jamie. They're playing hockey or ice skating at the 449 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 1: stadium there in Las Vegas. Yeah, the T Mobile Arena, 450 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: And I'm like, wow, they spend a lot of money 451 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: on the Seaton. Uh. They go ice skating where the 452 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: Las Vegas Nights play And that was a really cool experience. 453 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 1: Trevor was a former hockey player and Jamie. You know, 454 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: there's points in this episode where I just keep thinking, man, 455 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: this girl is so twenty one. She's telling Rudy to 456 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,239 Speaker 1: say I love you. She wants to say I love 457 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: you to Trevor after two weeks, and I'm like, two weeks. 458 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 1: I was like, girl, just keep it and just play 459 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: it cool. But she is relatable in the sense that, 460 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: like she she's a little awkward. She's so excited about 461 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: everything that's going on, and she just can't keep it in. 462 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: She says I love you. And then even though Trevor 463 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 1: says to her, like ten minutes earlier that he can't 464 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: say I'm following for you until he really feels it, 465 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: apparently he did really feel it because there are on 466 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: the rink and he says, I'm following for you too. 467 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: It's uh, you know, so far it's a match made 468 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: and listen to your heart history. I mean, there's some 469 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: good couples going on now. Later on in the podcast, 470 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna have Matt on to talk about his relationship 471 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: with Rudy's, but we do want to mention that the 472 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: date card came out to Matt and Rudy and said 473 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: it's you, it's both of you. And they went to 474 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:56,400 Speaker 1: a concert that Shaggy performed at Shaggy. Uh. So let's 475 00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: stop here, Ashley, because to your point earlier, you are 476 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: saddened because every day to this point was romantic or fun, 477 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: like fun and like the Shaggy concert, maybe not the 478 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: most romantic concert, but exciting. You got to get on stage, 479 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: you got to sing and dance with Shaggy. And then 480 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: we have the date card number four come for Ryan 481 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: and Natasha and it says it's time to dig deep. 482 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:27,400 Speaker 1: They are destroying cars, so random. Yeah, so they just 483 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,360 Speaker 1: definitely put them on the least romantic date. But that's 484 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: because there's nothing there, Like it would be so awkward 485 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,640 Speaker 1: to see them at a candlelight dinner, right, mm hmm. 486 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,239 Speaker 1: They just both have amazing talent. Like what do you 487 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,959 Speaker 1: at this point, what do you assume their conversations are? 488 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: Like do you think they both believe? I mean you 489 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: saw later on when Natasha left and Ryan left at 490 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: Ryan hints to her, Hey, I want to see if 491 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: this can work outside of this. Is that something that 492 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 1: you believe is still going on? But I do I 493 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: think that Yan is probably thinking, man, I am so 494 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: good at performing with this girl, as we saw in 495 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 1: the two weeks prior, like you know, last weekend, the 496 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: week before that. He probably doesn't want to drop out 497 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: on what they could do together on stage, probably wants 498 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: to keep some sort of performance relationship together, especially since 499 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: they'll be paired in Bachelor Nation, so it's best to 500 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 1: monopolize on That makes sense. I mean we move on then, 501 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: So the dates have happened, the connections exist. Actually, you're 502 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: saddened because you felt like that Ryan and Tasha did 503 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 1: not have a romantic date. I would agree, but hey, 504 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: we're excited for their performance because their performance always pulls out. 505 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: I wasn't waiting for them to just blow the pants 506 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: off that performance, and I was so disappointed. Everybody was 507 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: better than them. Let's go and talk about the performances. 508 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: Chris and Brewer. The judges this week are Ari and 509 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: Lauren Lyon and Dyke, Pat moynihand Massive name from Train 510 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: and Ashley and Evan Ross formerly known as Ashley Simpson 511 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: was her maiden name. Chris and Brie, We're first. They 512 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: sing a song by Elvis. I can't help falling in love? Yeah, 513 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: at first I'm like, Chris, this isn't giving Chris the 514 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: vocal range that he's so good in. And then halfway 515 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: through they amped it up and I thought it was amazing. 516 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: They did a great job, and she sounded probably the 517 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: best that she has all season, in my opinion, I'd agree. 518 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,959 Speaker 1: I mean, Chris started out, you know, shaky like that, 519 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: those first couple of notes, We're like, Oh, what's gonna 520 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: where is this gonna go? This isn't what you're used to. 521 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: But by the end, I mean, I think I'm learning. 522 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: I'm learning something from this show is when you do 523 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: have a true connection with somebody, I think you see, 524 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: I think it does show through music, and I think 525 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 1: his true connection with bree helped him take it up 526 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,959 Speaker 1: a notch. After those first couple of notes were shaky, 527 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: and by the end we were all we had forgotten 528 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 1: the beginning. We were just celebrating them as a couple again. 529 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 1: And I agreed with what I think Evan said. He 530 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 1: said that even though it wasn't like his perfect register, 531 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: because he was so gentle and sensitive singing those lines, 532 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: it almost made up for it. Chris is a talented Breeze, 533 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: extremely talented. I'm just a huge fan of this couple. 534 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: It's fun to see no matter you know the show 535 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: or not, it's fun to see a connection made like this. 536 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: We got to celebrate love when it exists, and it's love. 537 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: It's definitely existing between them. The next performance was Jamie 538 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: and Trevor Just a Kiss by Lady Antebellum. I was 539 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,959 Speaker 1: very surprised that the two of them were not super 540 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: familiar with this song, especially with Jamie being a Nashville 541 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: native and a country singer. Um. But we got to 542 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: see Jamie have this amazing jolt of confidence this week 543 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: because I think they exchanged the I fall I'm falling 544 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: in love with you and she is rock to the stage. 545 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: She didn't have her normal jitters. She expressed herself with confidence, 546 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: and I thought they it was their best performance so far. 547 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: When you get told when you you know, risk saying hey, 548 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: I love you to somebody and they respond back like, 549 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: how good does that feel? It's the best. I mean, 550 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: it's only happened to me once in my life, but 551 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: it was the greatest. And I when I saw that scene, 552 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: I flashed back to where I was when Jared told 553 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: me for the first time, that's so cool. As there 554 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: really is. I mean it does, because you can see 555 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: it in Jamie this week. She's doing like high kicks 556 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: in address. She's like, I don't know. She was like 557 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: ready to explode through a wall. That girl was so 558 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: pumped up. It was awesome to see and the love 559 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: existed on stage and the two of them crushed it. 560 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,479 Speaker 1: Natasha and Ryan were up next. They sang perfect by 561 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: ed Shearon Yep and that I didn't even recognize this song. 562 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: I didn't recognize the sob. It was weird and apparently, 563 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: like I said earlier, in Natasha sang a verse that 564 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: was supposed to be his, and I was wondering during 565 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: the performance. I was like, why isn't he singing at all? 566 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: And then she grabbed two Mike's and then he started 567 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: like playing the guitar and walking down the catwalk and 568 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: it was just so chrish. If only those judges saw 569 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: them last week, I know, I'll drop it. I'll drop it. 570 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: It's tough. It was hard to watch, but I do think, 571 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: you know, the three couples remaining have the best connections 572 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: as well, so uh. The last couple, Rudy and Matt 573 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: singing Shallow from a Star is Born we'll talk to 574 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: Matt about it more here and just a little bit, 575 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: but from our perspective, just one of our favorite songs. 576 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, And this is the song that they teased 577 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: the whole season with, and it's the song that I, 578 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: true to rely was like, why are they teasing this 579 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: season with? Because it's the one of the best songs 580 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 1: of the past decade and it's got to be one 581 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 1: of the most chemistry field performances that US millennials have 582 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: probably ever seen, and it's a lot to live up to, 583 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: and I just kind of wanted them to let it lie. 584 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: It's kind of like when they reboot your favorite show 585 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: or they do a sequel to your favorite movie. You're like, oh, 586 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: just let it lie. But they I think Rudy and 587 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: Matt did it did a justice. I mean, it ain't 588 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: Loo Gaga and Bradley Cooper, but pretty good. It was 589 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: super good. I I thought it was a great performance. 590 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: We'll talk to Matt here about it just a little bit. Well. 591 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: That leads us to the rose ceremony. Jamie and Trevor 592 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: receive a rose, then Matt and Rudy receiver rose. Finally 593 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: Chris and Bree receiver rose, and Ashley, Bryan and Natasha 594 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: are sent home. Yes, bye, guys, it was a pleasure 595 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 1: watching you. Well. Ryan was super talented, Natasha just an 596 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: incredible artist. The two of them will be just fine. 597 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: I we wish and the best in their careers because 598 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: I think the two of them are are just off 599 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 1: to do amazing things and music. But the contestants that 600 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 1: are left, well, they're off to one of the best 601 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: music cities in the world. According to Chris Harrison, they're 602 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: heading to Nashville. Ashley, what do you expect with the 603 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: upcoming episodes, Well, I'm wondering if it's gonna be like 604 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 1: American Idol where for the finale they're each going to 605 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 1: sing two songs together, because I think it'd be weird if, 606 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 1: like on this last chance to perform on a stage 607 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: and like before their crowned listen to your heart couple, 608 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:43,399 Speaker 1: if they only get one song, they should get multiple songs. Yeah, 609 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: like really music focused kind of You know, you have 610 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: the dates, but you also have a lot of more 611 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: a lot more music next week. This one performance thing 612 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 1: just hasn't given me personally enough And can we figure 613 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:59,280 Speaker 1: out the criteria that makes you the couple that is 614 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 1: the listen your Heart winner. We don't know is it 615 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 1: going to be based on love performance? I mean because 616 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 1: at this point when it comes to the depth of 617 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: a relationship, I think we just have to say that 618 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: Chris and Brewery just win. Yeah, I mean, yeah, you're right. 619 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: We we haven't heard yet. Is this up to the judges? 620 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: Is it up to a fan vote? Uh? Is it 621 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,240 Speaker 1: just the most talented performance? Is Chris Harrison just picking 622 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: his favorite. We don't know this yet, but it is 623 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: a big deal to win, like this could change their careers. 624 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: But it also could be like Bachelor Winter Games where 625 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 1: it was like there were four remaining couples and everybody 626 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: kind of one except for them, Like they crowned somebody 627 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: at the end, and then it's like it's just for fun.

Uh, this has 643 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 1: been a fun journey to see these couples fall in 644 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,439 Speaker 1: love and to connect over music. So I've given an 645 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,479 Speaker 1: a as well. I wasn't sold on the show at first. 646 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 1: I'm getting sold as we go. I gotta say with 647 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 1: Listen to Your Heart, I love the character development. I 648 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: feel like I know these characters by week five better 649 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: than I know most characters on The Bachelor by week 650 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 1: five or even Bachelor in Paradise. It's it's obviously more 651 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:09,840 Speaker 1: closer aligned with Paradise.

Is there anything 710 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 1: you do other than music for for work? No, No, 711 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 1: we just just just play music. I'm a lucky guy. 712 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 1: So you and Rudy you had something from day one, Um, 713 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 1: but it was complicated also since day one. In this episode, 714 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: you guys are all over the place. Um, first it 715 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 1: seems like you're starting out strong. Then Rudy says that 716 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: you guys weren't ready to go to Vegas. So then 717 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 1: you stop on the side of the road to a 718 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:56,720 Speaker 1: creepy hotel and you supposedly stayed overnight, did you really? Yeah, yeah, 719 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: we did, and it was and it was really creepy too. 720 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: So did you have a ghostly experience, because in the 721 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: end credits we see that you guys are asking the 722 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 1: owner about it. Um, it was. It was really a 723 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: very creepy place. It definitely was. The funny thing that 724 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 1: happens that you don't get to see is there was 725 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: a train train tracks right next to the hotel. So 726 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: at three four in the morning, it came glaring with 727 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 1: the horn and like woke us up, and it was 728 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: like it kept coming. It kept it came like three 729 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 1: or four times. So that was that was pretty cool. 730 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 1: Were there any other guests at the hotel? No? No, 731 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: I don't think there's ever been a guest there in 732 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 1: the past twenty years. It was like an abandoned West 733 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 1: World weird town that we're in. You arrived in Vegas 734 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 1: and you guys seem to be in pretty good spirits 735 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: and then you guys get a date card. You get 736 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 1: to go and perform a shaggy which was cool for 737 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: all of us nineties early two thousands kids. And then 738 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 1: she tells you that she's following for you and it 739 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 1: kind of freaks you out of that tell us about 740 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: how like your mood, your attitude just kind of changed 741 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:10,759 Speaker 1: in that moment. I think that I was so um, 742 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 1: I was taking off guards. We we had just gotten 743 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 1: off stage with Shaggy. We had a couple of drinks 744 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 1: and and it's kind of naive of me to think 745 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 1: that we weren't going to have that kind of conversation, 746 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 1: but I think I was just so overwhelmed with just 747 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,439 Speaker 1: everything that had been going on that when she said 748 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 1: it kind of it kind of took me back a 749 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 1: little bit. And I wish I could have said something 750 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 1: better than what I said, because what I said was 751 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: like the dumbest you could possibly say, and I, you know, 752 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 1: anything else would have been would have been better to say, 753 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 1: but I, unfortunately was just just kind of defending it 754 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 1: and like not really knowing how to say what I 755 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 1: actually meant. So I actually didn't think that it was 756 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 1: a crazy reaction because I'm thinking, think, you guys probably 757 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: only only have known each other for about two weeks? 758 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 1: Is that true? How long had it been up until 759 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 1: that point, very very very short amount of time. It 760 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,800 Speaker 1: seems like it's a lot longer, but the whole process 761 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 1: is over a very very short amount of time. Yeah, 762 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: so I don't think hearing I can understand if hearing 763 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 1: I love you or I'm falling in love with you 764 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:26,320 Speaker 1: could be a little freaky at that point. Yeah. And 765 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,240 Speaker 1: and to be honest with you, in in real life, 766 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 1: I'm so guarded and I'm so I don't talk about 767 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:37,600 Speaker 1: my feelings and I don't express that these kinds of things, 768 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 1: especially with cameras and lights and and and Shaggy is standing, 769 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, I don't know's it 770 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 1: was very overwhelming for me. And that's that's the only 771 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 1: thing that I guess my brain could figure out to say. 772 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 1: And yeah, so I don't know. Rudy has a huge personality. 773 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,799 Speaker 1: But I also think she's super relatable to girls. She's 774 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 1: relatable to me. I feel like she has so much emotion, 775 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 1: she doesn't hold it back, she has no filter, right, 776 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,040 Speaker 1: But she's also hilarious and she just seems like you're 777 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,800 Speaker 1: never gonna be bored in a life with rude. Yeah, 778 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 1: there was never a dull moment with with us, and 779 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 1: and you didn't get to see a lot of it. 780 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,240 Speaker 1: But she whenever she has like a drink or food. 781 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 1: She spills it everywhere and drops and she's like a 782 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:31,880 Speaker 1: She's like a pleasant tornado moving throughout the world. And 783 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: it's that It's great. What do you think it is 784 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 1: about personalities like hers that girls just seem to really um, 785 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:44,359 Speaker 1: you know, register with that. Guys get completely freaked out 786 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 1: and overwhelmed by It's that undying like loyalty, like that 787 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: rider died, loyalty, like like she'll she'll murder somebody for you, 788 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:57,800 Speaker 1: that's how much she cares. And some people can't can't 789 00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:00,439 Speaker 1: handle that, and that breaks you up. But I'm down 790 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 1: with that. I like that. I think that's super cool 791 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 1: and endearing. And I don't know, she's she's a badass chick, 792 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:11,400 Speaker 1: and yeah, I know we're both crazy. We're both crazy people, 793 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,359 Speaker 1: so you know it kind of it kind of works out. 794 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 1: You were super forgiving early on in the season, like 795 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 1: she lost it on you guys, and now you just 796 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 1: joke about it, which I love. Yeah, yeah, believe me, 797 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 1: I've been through so much that was that was not anything, 798 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:29,879 Speaker 1: And in fact, it was kind of it was kind 799 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 1: of sweet and cute, and I get that kind of craziness, 800 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 1: so I don't know it worked for me. So you 801 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: guys go from you know, ups and downs throughout this episode. 802 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 1: She says she is falling for you. You get kind 803 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 1: of freaked out. You seem to be in a Bible place. 804 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:48,359 Speaker 1: She keeps crying, and then you guys get shallow as 805 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,799 Speaker 1: your performance song. I feel like they gave you that 806 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:56,839 Speaker 1: song because, like, uh, talk about having something almost impossible 807 00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 1: to live up to, you know, because with Lady Gaga 808 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 1: and like Cooper, everybody was obsessed with the chemistry. Everybody 809 00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:05,359 Speaker 1: is obsessed with that performance for like an entire year. 810 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,239 Speaker 1: Even watching this episode back, I was like, Mom, do 811 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: you want to watch the Stars Born tonight? So I 812 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 1: felt like they purposely gave you the most challenging of performances. 813 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:20,719 Speaker 1: Do you think so? I think that they gave us 814 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 1: the perfect the perfect song. Really. I think that, yeah, 815 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 1: that when we got it, we were we were adamant 816 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: with each other about like, let's let's not overdo this, 817 00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:34,719 Speaker 1: Let's not you know, try doing the crazy because it's 818 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 1: such an iconic performance and it's you. You could really 819 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:43,319 Speaker 1: mess that up. And Yeah, I think they gave us 820 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 1: that song because a they wanted to see if we 821 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,319 Speaker 1: could rise to the occasion and be it just was 822 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: the perfect song for the for the moment, for and 823 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 1: for for both of us.

Her performance was unreal, Like, you guys 825 00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:59,879 Speaker 1: are both great, but the fact that she was able 826 00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:02,760 Speaker 1: to like kind of compete with Gaga and that oh 827 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 1: oh part, like how did you do that? She gives 828 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:08,160 Speaker 1: Goga a run for her money totally, and being there 829 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 1: like in person watching that happen was one of the 830 00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 1: most powerful and amazing things I've ever done performing and 831 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:18,840 Speaker 1: I'll remember it for the rest of my life.

How did you do that? 837 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 1: Because we because her and I just we have such 838 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:45,279 Speaker 1: a great connection musically and and as human beings like 839 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:49,280 Speaker 1: we just we do.

What's Cooking Batch Nation? Alright, guys, we're back 867 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:37,440 Speaker 1: with our quarantine segment, What's Cooking Batch Nation? And we 868 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:41,600 Speaker 1: have DeAndre from Peter Season on the line, and she's 869 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 1: going to tell us what she's been cooking, what her 870 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: specialty is during quarantine. Hey DeAndre, Hey, Hey, Hey, what's up? 871 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 1: Before we get into your recipe, I just have a 872 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 1: quick question for you. You were eliminated rather early on 873 00:49:56,560 --> 00:50:01,000 Speaker 1: Peter season one week was it week four? Okay? Um? 874 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 1: How has it been watching as a viewer having not 875 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:06,919 Speaker 1: been there for all of his mess and then being 876 00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 1: able to just observe what's happened in the aftermath of 877 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:15,680 Speaker 1: the season? Um? I think it's weird getting the side. 878 00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:18,320 Speaker 1: Like when you're there, obviously you don't see everything happening, 879 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 1: but like when you get to watch this an outsider, 880 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,520 Speaker 1: you get to see the big picture. So I think, 881 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 1: like a lot of things start to make sense to 882 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 1: me watching it back and be like, oh, okay, so 883 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 1: this is what was happening that I was so far 884 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:30,879 Speaker 1: removed from so much of the drama and so much 885 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,840 Speaker 1: of the things that went on. I was like, oh, wow, 886 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 1: so this is what was going on. I feel like 887 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:37,280 Speaker 1: so dumb. I was there in the middle of everything 888 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 1: and I didn't even notice these things happening. Um. So 889 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 1: it's definitely weird looking on, but it was kind of funny, 890 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 1: like it made a lot of sense. How do you 891 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,520 Speaker 1: feel about Kelly and Peter being together? Now? I is 892 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:50,640 Speaker 1: it true? Because like my thing is like I'm friends 893 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:53,400 Speaker 1: with Kelly, but she's never once actually mentioned anything. So 894 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, is it true? Like are these rumors? Like 895 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,319 Speaker 1: what's going on? Um? But they confirmed it. Yeah, they 896 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:02,759 Speaker 1: confirmed it. Okay, So I mean, hey, at least he 897 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 1: ended up with someone from our season. That makes me happy, 898 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 1: Like at least it wasn't a complete l somebody want, hey, 899 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:15,120 Speaker 1: before you started here on the segma of what's cooking batination? Uh, 900 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 1: there's an interesting fact about you that I have to 901 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:21,080 Speaker 1: bring out. You are one of ten siblings. Actually they 902 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:25,920 Speaker 1: got them wrong, eleven eleven siblings. Tell us about that? Um, 903 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 1: I mean I have a bunch of sliplings. A lot 904 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 1: of them are half like it's a very like blended family. 905 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,440 Speaker 1: So I got half slipblinks. I have adopted siblings that 906 00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:35,200 Speaker 1: are my cousins. Um, but it's awesome. I love having 907 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 1: a big family. I wouldn't change it for the world. 908 00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 1: That's so crazy to think I'm an only child and 909 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:45,759 Speaker 1: you have eleven siblings. How different our worlds are. I 910 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 1: couldn't I get very lonely. I feel like that's why 911 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:49,959 Speaker 1: I love being around people, because I always have someone 912 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,640 Speaker 1: to be with when I'm home always. Oh that's awesome. Alright, 913 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:55,640 Speaker 1: have you been cooking for the family? How many are 914 00:51:55,680 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 1: you corn right now? I'm quarantine one, two, three, four, five, 915 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 1: six of them? Yes, fun. So are you the go 916 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,839 Speaker 1: to cook? I'm not the go to cook. I feel 917 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 1: like I'm work so cooked for myself because I eat 918 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,920 Speaker 1: so differently, Like I'm just into different stuff. I'm just 919 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 1: super healthy, like weird recipes. And I also I'm like 920 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:22,879 Speaker 1: a snacker, so I'm not even a meal person. I'm 921 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: just constantly eating snacks, which is why I brought a 922 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:30,239 Speaker 1: snack recipe today for the podcast. Yeah, you go for it. 923 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 1: Oh okay, So, I mean you guys probably don't know this, 924 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 1: but I'm obsessed with peanut butter. So I'm like anyway 925 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:38,359 Speaker 1: that I can get peanut butter into my diet, even 926 00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:40,799 Speaker 1: though it's probably not the healthiest thing I do it. 927 00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:43,080 Speaker 1: So today I'm gonna be talking about how I make 928 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:48,560 Speaker 1: chocolate peanut butter bites and banana bites. Um. It's super easy, 929 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,480 Speaker 1: super simple. All you need is chocolate, chips, coconut oil, 930 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:55,480 Speaker 1: a banana, whatever nut butter you want to use, and 931 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 1: that's it in a freezer. Um. So what I'll do 932 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:00,279 Speaker 1: is I'll take like one to two and it's just 933 00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:02,759 Speaker 1: depending on how many fights I want to make, and 934 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,480 Speaker 1: you cut it up real thin and small pieces, kind 935 00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:07,239 Speaker 1: of like if you were going to make a little sandwiches, 936 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: so not too thick, and then you take whatever nut 937 00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:13,120 Speaker 1: butter you want to use. Again, I'm of sausa peanut butter, 938 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 1: and you just take the little slices of banana and 939 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,399 Speaker 1: you put the peanut butter in between them, and then 940 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:20,880 Speaker 1: you make little sandwiches out of them. Now, the trick 941 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 1: here is you have to freeze the little sandwiches before 942 00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:26,000 Speaker 1: putting any chocolate on it. So I like to put 943 00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 1: my little peanut butter bites, however many I make at 944 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:31,799 Speaker 1: that time, into the freezer for thirty minutes and while 945 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,440 Speaker 1: they're freezing, you can melt down your chocolate chips. And 946 00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 1: the key to melting the chocolate chips is to add, 947 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 1: like tea, two tablespoons of cocon oil. And if you 948 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,320 Speaker 1: don't add the cocon oil, it might burn the chocolate 949 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:44,400 Speaker 1: chips or make it harder to actually get that melty 950 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:48,759 Speaker 1: consistency that you're looking for. Um. So while the fruit, 951 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:51,200 Speaker 1: while the bananas, and the freezer, you do that, and 952 00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:53,840 Speaker 1: then whenever the little bites are frozen after thirty minutes, 953 00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:56,319 Speaker 1: it makes it a lot easier to actually coat them 954 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 1: and chocolate or drizzle them and chocolate. So you take 955 00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 1: a cup of chocolate chips, you melt it down with 956 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,239 Speaker 1: two tablespoons or two teeth spoons of cocon oil in 957 00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 1: the microwave, and then you take your little peanut butter 958 00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 1: bite sandwiches that are halfway frozen now and you can 959 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,720 Speaker 1: either dunk them like with a spoon. I dunk because 960 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,080 Speaker 1: I need them to be like almost like a Reese's 961 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:18,160 Speaker 1: pieces like dunk, or you can drizzle them. You're a 962 00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:19,800 Speaker 1: little healthier, you can drizally get a little bit of 963 00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 1: chocolate um, and then you put them back in the 964 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 1: freezer for thirty minutes to an hour and that's it. 965 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,600 Speaker 1: That's so amazing. I'm so into this recipe. And it's 966 00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 1: also very podcast friendly, so like I followed the entire thing. Okay, good. 967 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:34,960 Speaker 1: I was worried about the measurements, but you really don't 968 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:37,279 Speaker 1: have measurements. It's all about what you want and how 969 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:39,080 Speaker 1: much you want, and that's what I love about it. 970 00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:41,279 Speaker 1: So in total, like, how long does it would it 971 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,959 Speaker 1: take from like start to finish? How long are we talking? Um? 972 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 1: I would say an hour or forty five minutes only 973 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:51,399 Speaker 1: because and it's not no, it's not work involved though. 974 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:54,400 Speaker 1: The work time is like ten minutes. No, no, no, no no, 975 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:56,400 Speaker 1: I'm not saying bad. That was a that was a 976 00:54:56,520 --> 00:55:01,759 Speaker 1: good one.

You can just drizzle 979 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:08,000 Speaker 1: it on it and the little bite should be frozen 980 00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 1: already and you can just eat it right there if 981 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,400 Speaker 1: you're like in a rush. But I say freeze it 982 00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,399 Speaker 1: because it's nothing better like biting into like a hard 983 00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 1: frozen little banana chocolate.

We've talked about all the time, but 1001 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:25,840 Speaker 1: more than ever during I think Quarantine. I have felt 1002 00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 1: the way of negative comments and criticism, especially revolving around 1003 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 1: this podcast, which I love so much and I really 1004 00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 1: love hosting with you, and so I've been talking to 1005 00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 1: people about it, trying to get some help and assistance. 1006 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 1: Did you know scientifically that for every bad comment or 1007 00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 1: bad scenario that happens in your life, science would point 1008 00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:52,760 Speaker 1: to you needing at least four positive ways of reassurance 1009 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:56,600 Speaker 1: based around that event to get you back into a 1010 00:56:56,640 --> 00:56:59,720 Speaker 1: positive mindset. Isn't that crazy to think about? That's interesting, 1011 00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 1: but it's not surprising to me at all. It's like 1012 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,000 Speaker 1: how I'll go through a whole bunch of Instagram comments 1013 00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:08,359 Speaker 1: and there'll be a hundred positive ones, and then they'll 1014 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:10,360 Speaker 1: be one negative one and that's the one that I 1015 00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 1: want to respond to. M hmm. It's like it's like paralyzing. 1016 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:18,960 Speaker 1: I was asked this week on a podcast myself that 1017 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 1: I was doing separately than this, Hey, if you were 1018 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:25,880 Speaker 1: a middle school student right now, what is your advice 1019 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 1: for them on how to handle social media and how 1020 00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:30,640 Speaker 1: to try to be leaders? So say they want to 1021 00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:33,320 Speaker 1: be leaders in whatever field they're doing it, knowing that 1022 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:37,280 Speaker 1: criticism is criticism is going to come. And I honestly 1023 00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:40,160 Speaker 1: that question kind of shook me because I don't I 1024 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:41,880 Speaker 1: don't know what I would tell them, and I don't 1025 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 1: know if I have a place to tell them, because 1026 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 1: I thought you were going to ask me what my 1027 00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 1: advice would be, and I was like totally blank. Yeah, 1028 00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:50,880 Speaker 1: I guess my advice would be, no their worth, no 1029 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 1: their value, no their purpose. Know that if they're trying something, 1030 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:59,040 Speaker 1: then they're doing something. Um Like, just know that we're 1031 00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 1: all trying here and we all kind of I can 1032 00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:04,640 Speaker 1: feel it.
