31
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: He said it was basic, and I started thinking, I

32
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: guess like I like Kettle chips like cape cod chips

33
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: um or I just think there's like a brand called

34
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: Kettle right, and their hallepo is so good. But back

35
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: to my question, Ben, what did you do this weekend?

36
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: High and low? I golfed um a golf this weekend

37
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: and uh, I shot the worst score I shot probably

38
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: in ten years. Um. Here's a cool part though that

39
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: might be interesting too many people listening. One of my

40
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,399
Speaker 1: best friends in the world. Um, he was not able

41
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: to attend my bachelor party because about a year ago

42
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: he was diagnosed with lime disease. Um. I mightbe have

43
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: mentioned it, but he has a pick line in right

44
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: now to help him get some medication. He was able

45
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 1: to play golf for the first time since he was

46
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: diagnosed with me. This weekend he was my golfing like buddy. Uh.

47
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: He crushed me, which wasn't fair because I felt bad

48
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: becase he had a pick line in. I was like,

49
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: I gotta take it easy, and then he just absolutely

50
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,119
Speaker 1: wipe me up and down the course. Um. But it's

51
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: interesting as they learned more about lime disease, how many

52
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: people out there stuffer worth it. So again, listeners, if

53
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: you're somebody who has lime disease, all the info is

54
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: really welcome right now because we're trying to learn more

55
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: about it. But I mean, it's hard. It's tough on

56
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: on him. Did he get it from a tick or

57
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: a mosquito? I thought they were only from ticks, but

58
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: I recently read only about mosquito. Now I got it

59
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: from a tick. Uh during one of our camping trips.

60
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's just interesting. But that was a big

61
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,959
Speaker 1: weekend for us. And then Saturday night, and I'm gonna

62
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: ask you the same question. Saturday night, Jessica and I

63
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: had a date night, something that we are making a

64
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: priority in our relationship for the rest of our relationship.

65
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: And we went to a restaurant here in Denver called

66
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: Barolo Grill. It was fantastic. But before we went to

67
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: the restaurant, uh, she helped me pick out a new

68
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: pair of basketball shoes because I'm gonna try to get

69
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: back into it again and not tear my achilles. Um.

70
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: And then we went and hung up shelves at her

71
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: brand new skin studio in Denver that opened this weekend.

72
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: She is now seeing clients. You go to Jesskin jess

73
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: if you live in Denver coming through to see her. Um.

74
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: So I hung some shelves up so she could put

75
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: some product on the walls. That sounds exactly like our

76
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 1: weekends this weekend, very similar. Before we went to dinner,

77
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: we went to a really nice place in Bristol, Rhode

78
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: Island called the Beach House. The Beach House, I think,

79
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: and it was so cute right there on the water.

80
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 1: And then before that we went to Lows where I

81
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: put together my first ever flower boxes. Which made me

82
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: feel like that was the adult moment. If I've ever

83
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: realized that I am an adult, it was when I

84
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: went to Lowse on my own, well not on my own,

85
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,359
Speaker 1: but with Jared because I wanted to go and make

86
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: flower boxes, and then he got equipment parts to help

87
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: enforce one of the shelves in my closet. So can

88
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 1: you believe the parallels? It's it's exciting. I'll tell you

89
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: what I mean. If anybody out there is going, hey,

90
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: my life is boring, I'll tell you the things that

91
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: bring me the most joy. I planned my garden this weekend,

92
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 1: actually so planning flowers, planning a garden. I hung a

93
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,559
Speaker 1: bird house this weekend, hoping I get a nice little robin.

94
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,919
Speaker 1: We got a hummingbird feeder now sitting out side that

95
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 1: I stuck up for Jessica. Uh, seeing some hummingbirds flying

96
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 1: around color. I mean, you know what it's Uh, it's

97
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: life that's exciting and fun and finding contentment and the

98
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: things that maybe you didn't expect before. But hey, if

130
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: remember a few weeks ago. But and I did our

131
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: first impressions of the guys as we usually do, but

132
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: a lot of those photos where they're just like real

133
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: life photos, right, a lot of them were in landscapes

134
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: in their hometowns and all this The official photos came

135
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: out last week, and a lot of the guys that

136
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 1: we've already talked about are there in the official list.

137
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: So there's twenty nine guys plus the box. Now the

138
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: box is not a surprise to me. It's what's his

139
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: name from Plantatious season? Yeah, Blake, So you know they're

140
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: they're not releasing Blake as one of the cast members.

141
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: But there is a little present It looks like with

142
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of questions marks underneath it, and that

143
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: will be our surprise guests, and I mean, like it's

144
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: got to be black, And honestly, I think Blake is

145
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 1: going to get really far. If you guys are completely

146
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: forgetting about the report that we had a couple of

147
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: weeks ago, Blake was set UM spotted on set early

148
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: on during the recording of Katie's season, and it looks

149
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: like I think he was with Katie and some of

150
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: the pictures, it looks like he's going to be a

151
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: cast member. And I think he's gonna get far. Do

152
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: you guys remember how like he was supposedly like really

153
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: sexual and then we know that Katie is pretty open

154
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 1: about her sexuality. I just think they're kind of gonna

155
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: jive immediately. And yeah, I'm predicting that Blake gets top four.

156
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 1: Um and some other fun little tidbits I got from

157
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: these guys because their bios came out. I took some notes,

158
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: um about the ones that stood out the most to

159
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: me because we have occupation now in hobbies and all

160
00:08:54,920 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: that there's a skin salesman, a skin salesman. I think

161
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: this is Jeff. How do you feel about that? Do

162
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: you know at all what that means. Ben, I'm imagining

163
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:10,079
Speaker 1: he's like skin graphs, so like he probably like works

164
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: for a hospital and sells skin graphs. Yep, that is

165
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: what it is. But I like the way the Bachelor

166
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: calls him a skin salesman. Yeah, it could be a

167
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 1: little better. Like, I'm sure that's like a little bit

168
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: of of a diss on him. He's like, no, I'm like,

169
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: actually like somebody that matters and like help people. He's like,

170
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: I helped burn victims, but sure call me a skin salesman. Um.

171
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: Then there's a zipper salesman zipper Like, h like what

172
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 1: happened to the days that we actually could find out

173
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: what these people did for a living? Like there's is

174
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: there really somebody that brokers zippers for jeans? I guess

175
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: like that's the like I'm sure most of these gene

176
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: companies just go through like the manufact acture. So what

177
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 1: does he do? Call up you know, like SEVENS and goes, hey,

178
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: I've got a brand new zipper that you're gonna By

179
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: the way, zippers and I don't get along very often. Um.

180
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: But so like when I hear this, it's just not

181
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 1: like zippers on pants I'm I'm more of a button guy.

182
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: It's safer for many reasons. But does he just call

183
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: up SEVENS like, Hey, I got a good zipper for

184
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: you this year? Could be? Um. We got a little

185
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 1: tidbit from our producer Riley saying that there are four

186
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: point five billion zippers of all kinds that are consumed

187
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: amongst the American population, the US population per year. So

188
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: zippers are apparently more important than we think, and we

189
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: use them as they're part of our daily lives more

190
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 1: than we think of. Look, I got a zipper right

191
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: here in my shirt, and I bet you you have

192
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: a zipper on right now as we speak. No, I'm

193
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: you should know I'm wearing a T shirt and basketball shorts. Actually,

194
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: thanks for calling me out. I haven't changed it. I

195
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: worked out this morning. Oh that's okay. You know that.

196
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: That's like me every week we're on here. Um okay.

197
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: So then we have a guy who starts celebrating Christmas

198
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: in October every year. Well, that's Jessica, that's my fiance.

199
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: It's kind of endearing, I believe. Don't quote me on this.

200
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: That that is Josh who does this. Jared also would

201
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: love to start celebrating in October, probably like November one,

202
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: if we're going to be technical, because Jared does like

203
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 1: to soak up his thirty days of Halloween. Thirty one

204
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: days of Halloween. Yeah, you know what. Thanksgiving is one

205
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,959
Speaker 1: of my favorite holidays. I have a problem with this because, um,

206
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: last year, Jessica really wanted to start celebrating in October

207
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 1: and I said, no, we gotta wait till at least

208
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: after Thanksgiving, because Thanksgiving is um is a time for

209
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: my family and her family to all get together. We

210
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: can't just skip over it. This isn't you know, this

211
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: is a memorable moment. But I get it. I'm learning

212
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 1: that people love to start celebrating as soon as, uh

213
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: they feel appropriate, and I feel like for Jessica, it's

214
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: like an all year thing. In fact, this two weeks

215
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: ago we went for dinner and they had Snowman painted

216
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,199
Speaker 1: on the windows and she looks at me, she goes

217
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,439
Speaker 1: Christmas and I was like, Yo, you gotta be kidding me.

218
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: We're married to the same person. Then, because that October

219
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: through Christmas era, Jared is just super excited. It's his

220
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 1: favorite time of year. He loves the holidays and everything

221
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: that it means um, but I like to milk each

222
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: one and I don't want to push one forward. That

223
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: makes sense. Okay. So then last note of mine that

224
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: that really stood out was there's one guy who says

225
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 1: he's good in bed. Yeah that guy. Uh you know what,

226
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 1: I've never hung out with any guy friend and been like,

227
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: I like you if that's how Yeah? Yeah, it just

228
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: feels like, like, you know, your actions speak louder than words.

229
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: M m uh, producers, I hear that you guys are

230
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 1: obsessed with the weird facts Eastern. Do you have any

231
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: that I didn't mention? Possibly? Possibly? Let me let me

232
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 1: pull up one of my favorites really quick. I love

233
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: having Easton in the pod. You know, it's a rare

234
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: treat and I appreciate you giving me this moment. Brandon

235
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 1: lives to attend the occasional rave. Brendan really does not

236
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: like vegetables. Wow, what a wacky fact. But there's one

237
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 1: guy who really likes parades. Oh, here he is Christian

238
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: heard about that loves parades, dreams of driving the Batmobile,

239
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: and rocked a Foehawk in his younger days. Oh god,

240
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: that is Jared's best friend. That might be Jared's new

241
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 1: best friend. He loves parades, he like loves the pride

242
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 1: that comes along with them, and he also, of course

243
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 1: wants to drive the Batmobile. And I think, where is

244
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: he from? Do we not? Do we know this? He's

245
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: from Boston, Massachusetts. Oh my god, it really is Jared's

246
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: future best friend. Are our raves still a thing? Because

247
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: when I was growing up, going to a rave was

248
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: like we always talked about in high school. You know,

249
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: you kind of whisper like, oh, you going to the

250
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: rave this weekend, and then you choke to this rave

251
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 1: and everybody like paint like like a highlighter on each

252
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: other and musically blast. Yeah, it was like underground raves.

253
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: Is that still a thing? That sounds very uh illegal children? Actually?

254
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: I mean if if I'm sure, there's a lot of

255
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: things I did in high school that were legal. Um,

256
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: But yes, I think raves were a thing. I think

257
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: we I mean, I wonder if they still are, and

258
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: if not, maybe we could bring them back. I feel

259
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: like they kind of came back, uh in in you know,

260
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: the early two thousands to mid two thousand's. It came

261
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: back from the eighties. So I mean, super interesting group

262
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: of guys. You know my unique standout Courtney because he

263
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: spells his name qu a r t n e y.

264
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: I've never seen that spelling for Courtney. Maybe it is common.

265
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: I just am, you know, kind of hide under rocks

266
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: sometimes certainly not common. It's kind of cool. Yeah, it's

267
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: really cool. It kind of makes me want to court me,

268
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 1: like you know, like a little really makes things special. Um, Ashley,

269
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: if I was to ask you a question, yes, sir,

270
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: that we do every year, it's a big question for us. Well,

271
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: I was going to change this question top three. Yeah,

272
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: I always feel like I'm like struggling for that three.

273
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: So can I give too? Because I feel really strongly

274
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: about two, Ashley, You're the boss you can give to.

275
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: Who are your two standouts without watching an episode, knowing

276
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: anything about them, just seeing their pictures and some interesting facts.

277
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: Aaron and Marcus. But like I hope that's just not

278
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: because like I enjoy their vibes. I might be picking

279
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 1: them for my own companionship and less of Katie's because

280
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: like Katie has a whole different personality than me. Not

281
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: that I know Aaron and Marcus personalities either, but they

282
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: stand out. So what about you? Uh? If I'm looking

283
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: at these guys, and if I glance over them, there's

284
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: two that stand out to me. Carl Uh. Carl is

285
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: very confident. You can see it in his eyes and

286
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: in the way he's holding himself. Why am I not

287
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: seeing him? Oh? There he is, Carl with a K.

288
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: That's why. Yeah, Carl with a K. And I'm also

289
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: kind of like Vibe and Austin. Austin Uh goes with

290
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: the old school burgundy golf shirt for his picture. It

291
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: means he has some fashion sense. Um, he's facing the

292
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: camera directly like he knows that he's entering into this

293
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: thing in confidence. So Austin and Carl are standing out

294
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: to me. If I'm only going to give two, if

295
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: I were to choose a third, which I think I

296
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 1: still can can do that, can I give you my

297
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: third next week? Yeah, you can give me your third

298
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: next week, I would say Marcus. I think Marcus Uh

299
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 1: looks like a kind man with a gentle smile. I

300
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: expect big things from Marcus. I will be really disappointed

301
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: if he doesn't stand out. Um, I mean this group

302
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: of guys and and be it might be the change

303
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 1: of background now for the pictures that they're they're doing.

304
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: It's a good looking group of guys who you know,

305
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: sometimes we look at this and we're like, what in

306
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: the world where they find these dudes? We look at

307
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 1: this group and we're like, these guys, you know what

308
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 1: they got something like this could be a good group

309
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: of men. They're fine, but they're not as exciting to

310
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 1: look at on these backgrounds as they were in that preview.

311
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: Because remember when I saw the preview, I was like, oh,

312
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: they're cute, and I'm looking at these pictures and I'm like, yeah,

313
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 1: they're fine. I mean, if I'm just to be vain,

314
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: and we all know that nobody looks their best. Everybody

315
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: looks their worst actually in these photos. Oh, I mean

316
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 1: they always do. It's it's sometimes like you watch ease

317
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:08,679
Speaker 1: and you see them on TV, it's a completely different person. Um. Well, Ashley,

327
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: not like coaches, not friends. I don't they've kind of

328
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,679
Speaker 1: changed the verbage up a little bit, but um mentors

331
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: lot of changes. It's probably gonna feel very different, which

332
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: will make a really fun season for us to talk about.

333
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: And we will be talking about it right here on

00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 1: how are you. We are so good. We are so

340
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: happy for you. You have so much going on. Um,

341
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: you just got engaged last week. You're wanting you guys

342
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:47,679
Speaker 1: building a house and you're starting IVF. Yeah, there's so

343
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: much on my play right now. I think my parents

344
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: are freaking out for me. But yes, I just got

345
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: engaged last week. We did buy a piece of property,

346
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,680
Speaker 1: but we're like pushing pause on building for a while

347
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: just because the cost of building is so high, and

348
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: I mean all the things. And then yeah, we're beginning. Yeah, yeah,

349
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:13,679
Speaker 1: you get it. We're both they're crazy. And then and

350
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 1: then I'm starting my I'm starting IVF this week. Actually,

351
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: where to begin? All right, let's start with the engagement.

352
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 1: You told me last week via text that you actually

353
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: were in the midst of designing. You didn't you're like

354
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: picking out your own ring, and that was months ago.

355
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 1: So start at the very beginning, when you guys had

356
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: the conversation of all right, let's find a ring. I know, okay,

357
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: so um, we had We've been talking about getting engaged

358
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 1: and getting married for a while because we started trying

359
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: to have kids last summer, and you know, the order

360
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: the sequence of the events didn't really matter to us.

361
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 1: We just because we know we want to spend our

362
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 1: life together, we want to have kids, and so we

363
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 1: started having kids trying to have kids for first, which

364
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: was a little out of order, but we knew we

365
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 1: wanted to get engaged and get married eventually. So Dylan

366
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 1: knows nothing about diamonds or jewelry, and so he originally said,

367
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: can you make like a Pinterest board for me to

368
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 1: have in my back pocket something? And so I started

369
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: doing that and I pretty much landed on this design

370
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 1: that I wanted, and I showed it to him and

371
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: I was like, I wanted something like this, and I

372
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 1: think you're going to have to have it custom made,

373
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,159
Speaker 1: and so you know, I definitely had a hand in

374
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: the process and I helped him, but then I just

375
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 1: didn't know when or how it would happen. But I'm

376
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 1: very type as I wanted to design it. So when

377
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: what was important to you? Can you walk us through

378
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: the details of this ring? Um? So I just wanted

379
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:55,639
Speaker 1: something very unique and original to me. You know, my

380
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: background is in design, so I like having almost like

381
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 1: my stand ump of originality on something. And it's very classic.

382
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 1: It's Art Deco inspired, and it's just it's not a

383
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: ring you see on most people. So I just wanted

384
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: to be a little different. I wanted to have it

385
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 1: feel like it was truly mine and I don't wear

386
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,640
Speaker 1: a lot of jewelry very often. I'm always like outside

387
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: doing things. So when I do where, I wanted it

388
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 1: to feel not like it didn't belong on me, you know.

389
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 1: I didn't want it to feel out of character. So

390
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 1: did you see it before he popped the question? Now? Um,

391
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: we had a family friend who owns a jewelry store

392
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: in St. Louis. Um, it's called Genevese Jewelers, and they

393
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 1: she so Nicole, the owner of the jewelry company, was

394
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:53,400
Speaker 1: designing it with Dylan. So I didn't know thither ring

395
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 1: was there until like until they finished it. So they

396
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: were doing all the design and the production behind scenes

397
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 1: without without me. Now leading up then to the moment

398
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 1: that he asked you to marry him, can you walk

399
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: us through that day if you expected it kind of what? What?

400
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: Where did he do it? How did it happen? Um? Yeah,

401
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,959
Speaker 1: Well he was about to leave for a week long trip,

402
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: and so I think he was just like I just

403
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 1: got to like pull the band aid off, just do it,

404
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 1: because he told he told me afterwards like he had

405
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 1: been trying to come up with all these plans like

406
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 1: should we do it while we're in California? Should he

407
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: you know, trying to basically come up with the most

408
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,879
Speaker 1: dreamy scenario and then he was like, you know what,

409
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna do it where we spend our time

410
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: where saying I know Sarah loves So we did it

411
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,479
Speaker 1: at home in Carbondale. It was this typical Saturday. We

412
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 1: went out for a float on the river. We have

413
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 1: a raft and he knows it's my favorite river. My

414
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: best friend from home was there, and I think it

415
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 1: was just like, Okay, this is as perfect as it's

416
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 1: going to be for us because this is what we

417
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,959
Speaker 1: love doing. And so um, he had kind of tricked

418
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: me into thinking we were going out to shoot photos

419
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: for a brand, and so he was like, be sure

420
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 1: to put on some makeup and like wear the clothes

421
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: for Eddie Bauer and so I was a little like, m,

422
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: you don't usually tell me to put makeup. So I

423
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 1: was a little tipped off, but yeah, I was still

424
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 1: pretty surprised. That's awesome. So I we hate to put

425
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:35,919
Speaker 1: this pressure on because I know this is the question

426
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 1: that everybody asked when somebody gets engaged and it's like, wow,

427
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 1: it's been a week. Can we just enjoy engagement? But

428
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: what kind of wedding are you picturing? And when I

429
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 1: know on your Instagram this week you said that you

430
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 1: wanted a long engagement. Yeah, I want to be engaged

431
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,879
Speaker 1: for at least a year. Dylan. He's like, I defer

432
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 1: to you. If you want to run off in a

433
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 1: lope tomorrow, I'll do that. Or if you want to

434
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: draw it out and have you know, something more special

435
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: later on, we can do that. So I'm more comfortable

436
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 1: with a longer engagement. And that's just because, like we said,

437
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,399
Speaker 1: we have so much on our plates right now that

438
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 1: I really just want to give each experience we're going

439
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 1: through enough time to like enjoy it. There's no rush,

440
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: you know. I want to enjoy a long engagement. I

441
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: want to be present through my IVF experience. I don't

442
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: want to feel like I'm trying to get everything done

443
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: by certain timeline. Do you do you mind sharing kind

444
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: of have then? How I mean you said that you

445
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: you kind of had talked with Dylan and you started

446
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 1: trying to have kids a year ago. How are the

447
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 1: conversations leading up to choosing to have IVF and how

448
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: has that process been for you? Yeah, it's been pretty

449
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:57,959
Speaker 1: like rocky, It's it's pretty emotional. Um, we decided last summer,

450
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 1: like just something went off on a light switch went off.

451
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: I decided, you know what, I really do want to

452
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 1: be a mom. I want to have kids with Dylan.

453
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: I think it just like clicked for me. I was like,

454
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: I want to see him, you know, taking his little

455
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: kids hiking and just fantasizing about it. So we decided

456
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: to start trying, and after about seven months of no luck,

457
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: my gynecologists told me to come in and get tested

458
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: simply because I'm thirty four, and if you're over thirty

459
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 1: four and it takes a while, they want to check

460
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: on your hormone levels. So we found out I had

461
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 1: diminished ovarian reserve and that it was probably going to

462
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 1: be really difficult for me to get pregnant naturally. So

463
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: I had two options, and one option was to pursue

464
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 1: hormone just strictly like getting on hormones and still trying

465
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 1: UM naturally through intercourse. And then the second option was

466
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: to pursue IVF. And I had heard from many many

467
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 1: women that like, just go straight to IVF UM hormones

468
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: can really like kind of mess with you emotionally, and

469
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,919
Speaker 1: I didn't really want to do that forever, especially if

470
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 1: time is of the essence. So we decided to jump

471
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 1: right in and you're starting that process. You're going to

472
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:15,640
Speaker 1: California next week to get the eggs retrieved. So you've

473
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: been on a lot of hormones, I'm assuming the past

474
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 1: two or so weeks. How are you feeling? Um? I

475
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:26,120
Speaker 1: actually start on Wednesday, So I'm out here prematurely, essentially

476
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 1: because I want to be here for the whole process.

477
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,120
Speaker 1: So I'll be here for three weeks um, and I'll

478
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: be visiting with my fertility specialist every other day. So

479
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 1: since we are not in the same location, I just

480
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 1: I decided it would be best if Dylan and I

481
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 1: were here so that we could be with her in

482
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,239
Speaker 1: person rather than like you know, trying to do all

483
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 1: this remotely and then flying in right before the procedure.

484
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: I just wanted to be here for all of it,

485
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,400
Speaker 1: So I'll be all hormonal in an AIRBNBA somewhere. Well,

486
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,919
Speaker 1: thank you for sharing all this. It's a personal but

487
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: I do think it helps a lot of women out

488
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,159
Speaker 1: there when they hear this. Yeah. Yeah, And it's like,

489
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: I mean, it's such an uncharted territory when you come

490
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,360
Speaker 1: into it for the first time, and so when I

491
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 1: found out. I just wanted to absorb everything I still do.

492
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: I read. I kind of stopped reading all the blogs

493
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,639
Speaker 1: and the threads because you could just go down rabbit

494
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: holes forever. But you know, infertility was so nut I

495
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 1: didn't know. I didn't understand anything about it. So I'm

496
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 1: happy to share my experience because I know women have

497
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 1: a lot of questions, as do I. You know, it's

498
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 1: is it an exciting time? Like I mean, what are

499
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: what are your emotions right now? I mean you just

500
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: got engaged. You know, you're you're you are going to

501
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: have a longer engagement. This is happening in three weeks.

502
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 1: Like how are you doing personally? Um? Every day is

503
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 1: a little different. Um, right now, I'm really optimistic. Right now,

504
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 1: I'm really excited. I must feel like it's a high

505
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: because you're like, Okay, this is a really proactive step

506
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,719
Speaker 1: that has great results. So for the first time, I

507
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 1: feel like, oh my gosh, this could actually be it.

508
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: But I'm also trying to stay level headed because it

509
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: is a journey, and you know, not everything always works

510
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 1: on the first try, and it does seem like in

511
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: you know, getting up until this point, it's been a

512
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: roller coaster like, as soon as something feels really good,

513
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: something kind of inevitably punches you in the face. And

514
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: so I've just kind of like learned to roll with

515
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: those punches. But right now, in this moment, I feel

516
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: really excited and I'm just trying to like cling onto

517
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: that optimism. Awesome, Well, we are happy for you, were

518
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: excited for you, and sending you all the positive love

519
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 1: and vibes all the baby dust is. People keep saying,

520
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: I know, let's go through some fun questions before we

521
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 1: let you go. I think I know the answer to

522
00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: this one. Big or small wedding? What do you think small?

523
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna have like a little thing in

524
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 1: the woods with like thirty to fifty people. Probably yeah, probably,

525
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, less than a hundred, I think, but

526
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: definitely like smaller is is my demo. Last week we

527
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,719
Speaker 1: had Desert Heart stock on and she was picking out

528
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: wedding dresses for so many people that got engaged in

529
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: the last few weeks, and she talked about yours and

530
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: she said, if I remember right, something, yeah, athletic and

531
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: like that you could like get into the woods with

532
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,239
Speaker 1: and like that's beautiful strap list and like yeah, just

533
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 1: like something Yeah, you should go back and listen, because

534
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: she kind of, without having any knowledge of what you want,

535
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 1: we kind of picked your wedding dress for you. She

536
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: said it would be a form fitting, strapless bodice, but

537
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 1: then more flowing, like something that flows in the wind

538
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: with the bottom half. What have you've always imagined? I don't.

539
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: I don't think I'll do something like puffy, So we

540
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: didn't think it was gonna be pofy. I think, um,

541
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: but definitely like more on the classic side. I'm very um, yeah,

542
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 1: just like timeless, so probably form fitting. Um, I don't know,

543
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 1: I could see like just classic. I don't know. I

544
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: don't know. I need to like start studying. I guess

545
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 1: that will be my next Pinterest board. But it's funny

546
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: that Desert is like attuned to that because we were

547
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: on the show together and so she probably remembers like

548
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 1: a lot of the dresses that I wore. Smart, Yeah

549
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: he is. Our last question is do you foresee anyone

550
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 1: from Bachelor Nation being in your bridal party or a

551
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 1: prominent member of your wedding. Um? Not no, not in

552
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 1: my bridal party, because we don't think we're really going

553
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: to have Is that what the group what's the groom's groomsman?

554
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: See how much I know? Um No, I'll probably have

555
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 1: my sister be my maid of honor and Dylan will

556
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 1: have a best man and then that's it. Um. But

557
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 1: I would definitely love kind of I mean kind of

558
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: like you actually, like I would love to have a

559
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: lan and involved in some way like he's He just

560
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: means so much to me. I don't know about officiating,

561
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 1: but it will definitely be invited. Hey, he's licensed and

562
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: he is spectacular when he does it, as he is

563
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: with pretty much everything. Yeah, I know he would be great.

564
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 1: So yeah, I hope I envisioned him being there in

565
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 1: some capacity. But we'll have a small wedding party. Mhm alright, Sarah, Well,

576
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 1: It's always great for her to give up some of

577
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,719
Speaker 1: her time, especially she has a lot going on in

578
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 1: this in this season of life to talk to us.

579
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 1: But now, uh, as we mentioned last week on the

580
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 1: headlines about all the people getting engaged, it's time for

581
00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 1: Bachelor headlines here. Ashley is our resident expert. Let's start here.

582
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: Jojo Fletcher reveals Tasha Adams texted her for Bachelor hosting

583
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 1: tips ahead of Katie season is according to us, So

584
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: there's actually two headlines in here. First, Jojo reveals that

585
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: she was not offered the gig of being one of

586
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: the hosts this year. She said that she was deep

587
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: into filming her news show The Big d in Costa Rica,

588
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: so that timing probably wouldn't have panned out anyway. Um,

589
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 1: but Tasha reached out to Joe Joe, who, if you

590
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 1: guys remember, did some hosting when Chris Harrison brought his

591
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 1: son to college during her season. So she said, hey,

592
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: can I pick your brain? She said, it's weird taking

593
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: over the host role on a show like that. She said,

594
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 1: Chris Harrison is amazing at his job, so it's a

595
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 1: lot of pressure and I'm excited for them. As in

596
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: Taitia and Caitlin. She said that she's never spoken to

597
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: Katie before, and she said she's sad about that. She

598
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: says as newcomers come into the franchise, she keeps feeling

599
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,720
Speaker 1: further and further behind and not being able to connect

600
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,360
Speaker 1: with them as easy. But she said that she's excited

601
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,360
Speaker 1: her for her season because although she didn't really watch

602
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 1: Matt season dedicatedly, I don't know if as a ward

603
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 1: dedicatedly um, she said that she did see the episode

604
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 1: where Katie really stood out and she thinks she's going

605
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 1: to be a really good bachelor at Yeah, it's uh

606
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: And if I remember right, I mean Jojo was on

607
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: Matt season, but it was never shown, right, that's right

608
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,360
Speaker 1: because Tasia and Jojo both did a date and it

609
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:16,840
Speaker 1: was cut, which was crazy, so wild. Uh. Next headline

610
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 1: is this is a big one for the Bachelor franchise. Uh.

611
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of changes going on in

612
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: the whole Bachelor world. And you know, if you don't

613
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 1: know this, the Bachelor is global, so a lot of

614
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: different countries do have their own specific show, well, The

615
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 1: Bachelor Australia cast first openly bisexual lead to meet male

616
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: and female suitors. This according to E her name is

617
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: Brooke Blurton and she was on Nick Cummins season of

618
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 1: The Bachelor in two thousand eighteen in the Australia version,

619
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,799
Speaker 1: and then she was on their version of Bachelor in Paradise.

620
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: I wonder the same says the following year. I don't

621
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: think that was the year that Jared was on a

622
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 1: Bachelor in Paradise Australia. May have been the year afterward,

623
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna have to ask if he knows who

624
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 1: Brooke is. So they are going to be casting girls

625
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 1: and guys for her season, which of course brings up

626
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:16,320
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of questions like will girls and guys

627
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 1: get together behind the scenes or like, actually, maybe not

628
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 1: so much behind the scenes as it is part of

629
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: the show. Will girls be getting with girls? Will guys

630
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: beginning with guys? Will everybody there be bisexual? Will people

631
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: be will certain people be straight? It's there's it's like

632
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: it could be like a whole other spinoff about what's

633
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 1: going on inside the house. If you you know, what

634
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 1: do you what do you think, don't you think that

635
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,680
Speaker 1: it's going to create a lot more. I mean, I

636
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: think it's great, but I also think it's going to

637
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 1: create so much drama they're gonna need multiple episodes a

638
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: week to keep up. Yeah, it's gonna be really interesting

639
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 1: how they navigate it. Um, it's going to you know,

640
00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: there's definitely gonna be storylines in the house, Like I

641
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: think that's justbvious, Like there's I mean, you know, even

642
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 1: if everybody goes in saying, hey, you know we're here

643
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 1: uh today, Brooke, Yeah, then you know, over time, like

644
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: connections will be made. You're spending all the time together,

645
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 1: so you know, the question then is like how are

646
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: the housing people all that that we don't know? But

647
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: there's it's definitely gonna be uh intriguing to watch because

648
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:25,240
Speaker 1: it's something that we've never seen this format talking the Bachelor, Bachelor,

649
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 1: we've never seen this format try this or we've never

650
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,400
Speaker 1: seen this happening. Uh, you know, will be really interesting

651
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 1: to me, Ashley because obviously this is happening in Australia first. Uh.

652
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: In the US is still the main franchise, it's the

653
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 1: most watched, there's the most money going into it. It's

654
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: where it started. Will the US follow at some point

655
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 1: the lead of Australia and then yeah, how does that work?

656
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 1: My thought is, yes, I know that ABC and Hulu

657
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 1: are kind of merging, like joining forces together, and I think,

658
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: you know what, we've had that hot topic about Rob

659
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: Mills and we have the spin off with the older

660
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 1: people being on The Bachelor Bachelorette, and if they do

661
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 1: expand the franchise onto Hulu, I think this would be

662
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: one of the first ones there. And let's just shut

663
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 1: out our friend Lance Bass is the perfect host for

664
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: a show like that. No, he's yeah, he's he's great. Um,

665
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting, So tune in. I don't know

666
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 1: if you can. I'm sure like on Hula or something,

667
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 1: you can tune into the Australian Brook Bachelor. I think

668
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: you can watch it on Hulu. They might be like

669
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 1: quite delayed. I don't know if you can watch it

670
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 1: in live time, like you know, week to week, but

671
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 1: they definitely upload the whole season up there. Because you

672
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: can watch Bachelor in Paradise, Australia on Hulu, I believe. Okay, well, uh,

673
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 1: next headline is the Bachelor, Shan Low says, there were

674
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: growing pains early in his marriage with Katherine Lowe. This

675
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,759
Speaker 1: according to people. Yeah, he I don't think that this

676
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:56,839
Speaker 1: is like the first time they've said anything like this,

677
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 1: but he said, in the beginning of our marriage, we

678
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 1: had a lot of growing pains, which for those nearly

679
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 1: what's out there who are listening and maybe it's a

680
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: little rocky for you, that's normal. That's what we've come

681
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,359
Speaker 1: to find out. There was a bit of pressure because

682
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 1: we did a lot of public appearances and they did

683
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,760
Speaker 1: the show, um, you know, marriage boot Camp, and he said,

684
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,359
Speaker 1: with things like that, you know, you get to put

685
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:21,320
Speaker 1: on a brave face even though maybe thirty minutes prior

686
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,760
Speaker 1: you got into an ugly spot at home. We've grown

687
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 1: and Catherine has tried so hard to be the best

688
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: wife possible. She's an incredible mother and hopefully I've grown

689
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,399
Speaker 1: up a little bit too. Um. That has helped us,

690
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 1: um improve the marriage over time. And also it was

691
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: helpful for them was learning each other's love languages. Sean

692
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 1: also said that the key to forging a successful marriage

693
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 1: is being someone being with somebody who is your best friend.

694
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: You know, they have been open about it, right, I

695
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 1: mean the marriage boot camp stuff was really hard on

696
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 1: them obviously his time on Things star as. Like you said,

697
00:39:56,280 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: I mean, they they've been very open about their struggles

698
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,799
Speaker 1: and there, uh their relationship, and it's helpful. I think

699
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 1: for many it's probably why so many people still gravitate

700
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 1: towards them. Um, you know, I mean, I know Katherine

701
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: Lowe is temporarily at least filling in an intramural for

702
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,960
Speaker 1: Rachel lindsay On on the Bachelor podcast. So, like you know,

703
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,239
Speaker 1: the lows are still very much a part of the

704
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 1: franchise and uh, and a lot of people lean on

705
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 1: them for advice. Well, uh, this week I did see

706
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: this person commented on Shan Low's photo. Shan Loo was

707
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,280
Speaker 1: preaching at a church this Sunday, and Matt James commented

708
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,320
Speaker 1: on it. Well, we have some headlines for Matt James.

709
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:38,399
Speaker 1: We've kind of followed this story every week and we're

710
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: getting more and more information as the weeks go on.

711
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: But Bachelor's Matt James and Rachel cuddle up during trip

712
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: to Miami. You guys, they're going strong. They had a

713
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 1: p D a packed week at week weekend together spotted

714
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 1: last Monday, make seven teenth. Um, his arm was around

715
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: Rachel as they strolled on the beach, and they were

716
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: also spotted hugging, um, you know, on the beach, and

717
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,239
Speaker 1: an eyewitness said that they were on a cozy date

718
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 1: together at David Grutman's Komodo restaurant in Miami. They said

719
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: that they both sat on the same side of the

720
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: booth and they were very close to each other. Their

721
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 1: affection was on display, they weren't hiding it. So it

722
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: seems like they have hung out multiple times since well,

723
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 1: I mean that New York trip which apparently they split

724
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 1: up again, but then they rekindled in l A. It

725
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: seems like every week there's a new Rachel and Matt sighting.

726
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 1: But I mean, if I for one, I'm really happy

727
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 1: to see to see it. Yeah, it seems like they're

728
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,000
Speaker 1: making it work, or at least trying to, which is

729
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 1: I mean, which is exciting for you know, for a

730
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:59,280
Speaker 1: lot of bat foundation, but it also is a little

731
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 1: bit frustrating for me, you know why I get it.

732
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if we had the same reasoning,

733
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 1: but go ahead. Well, it's just like, you know, Matt

734
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 1: got so much criticism for how the season ended, and

735
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 1: it felt like then there was so much left unset, right,

736
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 1: I mean there after the Final Rose was an important

737
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 1: episode and we all kind of left going wasn't like

738
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 1: there's so much that's still confusing, like what happened? Like

739
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:27,280
Speaker 1: what what really went wrong? Like is do they dislike

740
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,400
Speaker 1: each other like fully or they still have feelings for

741
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 1: each other? And then it just kind of ended and

742
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 1: it felt like now we're seeing that, yes, there was

743
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 1: still feelings for each other, like they did want to

744
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 1: make it work. Um Matt was interested in finding a partner,

745
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,720
Speaker 1: which he got criticized for not wanting to find a partner,

746
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,000
Speaker 1: but it just wasn't good timing then and there was

747
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,920
Speaker 1: so much happening then it's like, well, uh, you know,

748
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,120
Speaker 1: it's not none of our business, right, but it's like, man,

749
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 1: I kind of want to know what's going on like this,

750
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,240
Speaker 1: Let's celebrate them a bit, and I hope they feel

751
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 1: celebrated for at least you know, try it, Ben, I

752
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 1: get it. I mean to me, thinking back on after

753
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 1: the Final Rows, which is still so recent, you know,

754
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 1: two months in some weeks, it feels like he threw

755
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 1: under the bus a little bit to me because it

756
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 1: was just seemed like the way he behaved toward her,

757
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 1: was that he was so disinterested in spending any more

758
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 1: time with her, and then fast forward for weeks and

759
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 1: all of a sudden he wants to get back with her.

760
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 1: It just seems like he was hiding some feelings there

761
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,560
Speaker 1: and he was doing something for the cameras that he

762
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:34,279
Speaker 1: doesn't really feeling inside. Maybe maybe he just needed some

763
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 1: time away to right. And I mean sometimes the cameras

764
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,000
Speaker 1: like it's like a vacuum and it's so much deaf

765
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,399
Speaker 1: spinning around that you're like, Okay, let's take a break.

766
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,880
Speaker 1: Let's take a step away from the cameras. Let's relike

767
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,880
Speaker 1: think through this. Let's maybe talk without cameras in our face,

768
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 1: and you know, you know, just chat about what's going on.

769
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 1: But I mean, yeah, I mean, he got so much

770
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: criticism for not wanting to find a partner, and then

771
00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 1: we're like, well, wait, no, he kind of did from

772
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,719
Speaker 1: the show, we just didn't get to see it. Well,

773
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 1: speaking of partners from the show, this is a story

774
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,440
Speaker 1: I'm very interested in because these two people are close

775
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 1: friends of mine and I've already mentioned on this podcast

776
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 1: that I think it would be the best in their

777
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,879
Speaker 1: of paradise if these two people showed up, were there

778
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,799
Speaker 1: for like an episode, and left together. Because I just

779
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:22,760
Speaker 1: get this sense that something is happening and I don't

780
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:27,759
Speaker 1: know what. But Bachelor alum Becka Koufern and Blake Hurtzman's

781
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: flirty friendship. I know it's gonna say that they're just friends,

782
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,960
Speaker 1: but I feel like that can't be possible. They liked

783
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 1: each other too much to just now be friends. Ben,

784
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 1: you might be able to get more insight than this

785
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: source does, because this source is just saying that they're

786
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 1: both single. They aren't dating one another. They just like

787
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: flirting with each other and it doesn't mean they're dating.

788
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 1: They run, They run in similar crowds, and they run

789
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:59,080
Speaker 1: into each other from time or two. Every time or two.

790
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 1: They were even spotted on Kenda Long's Instagram last week

791
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 1: or last month and Becca was jokingly giving Blake a rose.

792
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 1: Come on, you know more? You even have Bilake at

793
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 1: the Bachelor party. Does I know that there's no way exclusive?

794
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:19,279
Speaker 1: Or did I get that they're not exclusive? But like,

795
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 1: have they kissed? That's my question? Have they show? You

796
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 1: gotta ask, I will ask. Guys don't ask their guy

797
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 1: friends stuff like this, And you know you know if

798
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: we had Blake on, which we did very recently, I

799
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:38,439
Speaker 1: would straight up ask him this and make everybody uncomfortable,

800
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 1: and he'd probably say no, But then i'd over analyze

801
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: his facial expression or he'd laugh, and we'd know the

802
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 1: truth was yes. Well, here's what I do know, and

803
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 1: keeping you know, the respect of the friendships. I don't

804
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 1: know if they've kissed. I don't even I mean, like

805
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 1: I see Blake and like talk to Becca and they'll

806
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 1: be like, oh, yeah, I hung out Blake. I don't

807
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 1: want to dig, because I do want to they're they're

808
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:08,919
Speaker 1: friends of mine. All I know is this um that

809
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,320
Speaker 1: I belime. I don't know this. I guess I'm assuming

810
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 1: is given the right circumstance. Knowing how much Blake liked

811
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 1: Becca on that season, like literally was like this could

812
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: be my wife, and knowing how Becca felt about Blake

813
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,880
Speaker 1: and the interest there and the things left unsaid and undone,

814
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 1: given the right circumstance, I believe they would at least

815
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,320
Speaker 1: give it a shot. And I think, like dating again,

816
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,239
Speaker 1: I think there's just like there's tension there. There's just

817
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 1: no way they can just go back to being friendly.

818
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:43,400
Speaker 1: Like they're both single, they're obviously they Okay, the sources,

819
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 1: they run in the same circles. Well, they're both on

820
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,359
Speaker 1: the franchise and like they but like you know, there's

821
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 1: a lot of people from the franchise that live in

822
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:51,839
Speaker 1: Denver that I never see, Like you have to make

823
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: an effort to see them, and so I don't know.

824
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like Paradise is the spot, and

825
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 1: I feel like even if they're trying to fight it personally,

826
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,320
Speaker 1: if they're like, hey, this is too much, we can't

827
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,880
Speaker 1: do this, whatever, I believe that the show works so

828
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,520
Speaker 1: hard to get him on Paradise. They walked to the beach,

829
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 1: both single. You tell me there's not a spark, and

830
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 1: they don't go, let's give it a shot. I'm calling

831
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,960
Speaker 1: it right now. I think it happens. I think it's beautiful.

832
00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 1: I think it changes their worlds. I think they at

833
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:25,480
Speaker 1: least can date after that. I don't know. Then I

834
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:29,040
Speaker 1: have more to say. Okay, you keep bringing up Paradise,

835
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:32,360
Speaker 1: and I really have a hard time believing that Becca

836
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 1: would do Paradise after becoming a lead. We saw that.

837
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: Who was that? Who did that? I don't think anybody's

838
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 1: ever been the lead. Thing you were the lead, and

839
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:49,200
Speaker 1: you went on epic emotional failure, and then Blake has

840
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 1: such an issue with like the way Paradise last time

841
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,040
Speaker 1: went down for him, that I don't think he'd ever

842
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 1: be willing to go back again. So how do you

843
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:01,239
Speaker 1: see this happening in paradise? Do you think that Blake

844
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 1: actually would because you know him pretty well and I

845
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 1: know you must have talked to me about this, well,

846
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 1: I think they would. I don't think they want to.

847
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 1: I don't think it would be something that they like

848
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:16,720
Speaker 1: desire to do. But I think you mean, well, because

849
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:20,200
Speaker 1: here's here's how it plays out. I think I would

850
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:22,080
Speaker 1: tell anybody like, yes, I want to win our games,

851
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:24,399
Speaker 1: and yes, it was really hard for me. I can't

852
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,239
Speaker 1: say it was a wrong decision. I think there's so

853
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:28,240
Speaker 1: many things about it that I enjoyed, you know, beginning

854
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:30,839
Speaker 1: to spend that much time with you, getting to hang

855
00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:32,960
Speaker 1: out with Dean the whole time, getting me yuki, like

856
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 1: those things are memories that I'll take forever um and

857
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,359
Speaker 1: and help me get through a lot and confront a lot.

858
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,720
Speaker 1: And so I think Becca should, I mean, if if

859
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 1: she wants to do it, I don't think there's any

860
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 1: problem with the league going back on a show like Paradise,

861
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:50,000
Speaker 1: especially when they're single. Uh, and you know they're trying

862
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 1: to meet somebody for Blake, I mean quite frankly, even

863
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 1: in front of mine, it can't get any worse, like right,

864
00:48:57,680 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 1: and he survived it, like you know, he's doing his

865
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:03,240
Speaker 1: DJ thing now. Like even as for as much hate

866
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:05,720
Speaker 1: as he received and for as much hate as he felt,

867
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:09,359
Speaker 1: he's doing fine. Like he's he's right back in the world.

868
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:11,400
Speaker 1: So it's like, what, I'm gonna go back on this thing,

869
00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:12,960
Speaker 1: and they're gonna hate on me more? No, I know

870
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,920
Speaker 1: how this plays out. Give us some time, people you know,

871
00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 1: forgive and forget, or they just say, hey, it was

872
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:22,600
Speaker 1: you know whatever, and they move on I and and

873
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 1: it just it just might be And and this is

874
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 1: what I'll say as a friend, it just might be

875
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:31,920
Speaker 1: the push they need to like try this thing, because

876
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:37,239
Speaker 1: I think they would both be hesitant without having that

877
00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 1: intentional environment to enter into anything. And so it just

878
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,919
Speaker 1: might be the push in the environment they need to say,

879
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 1: can we just try this? Like where we at? Are

880
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:52,320
Speaker 1: we actually interesting each other? Or are we really just friends?

881
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,400
Speaker 1: Which I just can't believe. I don't believe it would

882
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 1: live for it to watch it on TV and just

883
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,760
Speaker 1: to go off of what you're saying about, like just friends,

884
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:04,839
Speaker 1: how do you even do that? How do you get

885
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:07,800
Speaker 1: that close to engagement end up going with somebody else

886
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,880
Speaker 1: having not fully explored what could have been with this

887
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 1: other person, then you just decide not to do it

888
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 1: once you're broken up with the other guy. Mmmm. Actually

889
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:17,799
Speaker 1: you're on the same page, and I think fans are

890
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:21,520
Speaker 1: also well. Big headline this week all over the place.

891
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 1: Chicks in the Office had an incredible, incredible podcast that

892
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:28,839
Speaker 1: they pulled a lot at of Kelly flann again, which

893
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 1: I'm starting to feel like she's a great interview because

894
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:33,920
Speaker 1: I don't think she holds back. We should probably get

895
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 1: her on this podcast. Um, she's never really held back

896
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 1: even with us, and but she let it all out

897
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 1: there during Chicks in the Office. She shared away Kelly

898
00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:46,839
Speaker 1: Flannagan told bachelor Peter Weber to get the hell out

899
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,520
Speaker 1: of my life after breakup, and there's a lot to

900
00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:54,600
Speaker 1: that statement. Ashley, what is going on? Juicy? Juicy? I

901
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:57,560
Speaker 1: was actually listening to this podcast before we started recording

902
00:50:57,560 --> 00:50:59,719
Speaker 1: our podcast. I didn't get to the get the hell

903
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:03,040
Speaker 1: out of my life or lose my Number part. But

904
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:06,560
Speaker 1: she does confirm that they broke up in December when

905
00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 1: they announced it like on the thirty one of the month,

906
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:14,880
Speaker 1: and then they reunited briefly once they reconnected at the

907
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 1: super Bowl, and because they were on fine terms, even

908
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 1: though she said she was really annoyed at the fact

909
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 1: that that he announced on New Year's Eve that they

910
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:27,239
Speaker 1: broke up, even though she wanted to wait a couple

911
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,200
Speaker 1: of days and kind of like tell family and friends

912
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,799
Speaker 1: and even the Bachelor producers told them to wait a

913
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 1: couple of days, but he went ahead and did it,

914
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 1: so that was annoying to her. But then when they

915
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 1: saw each other at the Super Bowl, they reunited in February,

916
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 1: only for it the last like another month or two

917
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 1: for it to end really badly this time, and when

918
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 1: you see really badly clarified because she does talk about this,

919
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 1: she doesn't. She doesn't. It's like kind of implied that

920
00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:00,360
Speaker 1: she found out that there were other girl roles that

921
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: she was that he was talking to. They even had

922
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:05,120
Speaker 1: each other still on Find My Friends. I don't know

923
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,160
Speaker 1: if you guys are all familiar with it, but it's

924
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 1: the app on the iPhone where you can track your people.

925
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,160
Speaker 1: I checked Jared, he tracks me, but more like for

926
00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:14,439
Speaker 1: safety reasons, like I like to know when he gets

927
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,839
Speaker 1: somewhere after he's driven for a long time, or like

928
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:19,720
Speaker 1: is he that he's not answering his phone? Like where

929
00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:21,960
Speaker 1: is it? You know all that that I can't do that.

930
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 1: You don't do that. No, Jess would always see me

931
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 1: at the golf course and I'd be like ashamed, No,

932
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,560
Speaker 1: I can't do that. Ben. This happens on a regular

933
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:33,440
Speaker 1: basis in our family as well. I'll wake up at

934
00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:36,399
Speaker 1: nine and I'll be like where is he? Buy net?

935
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:38,399
Speaker 1: Like what where is he? And then I always look

936
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:39,959
Speaker 1: if I'm my friends and he's on the golf course.

937
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:45,239
Speaker 1: Um okay. So she doesn't really say anything about like

938
00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 1: their specifically being one girl but or or a girl,

939
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 1: or like any sort of cheating situation, but she said

940
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 1: she heard that like he's been hooking up a lot lately.

941
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:00,880
Speaker 1: Like she said that she'll go to her friends in

942
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 1: Nashville and then they'll be like, oh, yeah, my friend

943
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:05,959
Speaker 1: hooked up with Peter last week. And then she said

944
00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:08,880
Speaker 1: that sometimes Peter will check in on her, but like

945
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 1: her mentality is just don't respond, like she just hasn't responded,

946
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:16,240
Speaker 1: hasn't talked to him since they ended badly, where again

947
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:17,880
Speaker 1: she said to get the hell of my life and

948
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,880
Speaker 1: lose my number, which, when you put all that together,

949
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:24,759
Speaker 1: just sounds like that's not that. That sounds like an

950
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:31,040
Speaker 1: argument where you found something out bad about the other person, right, Yes,

951
00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:33,920
Speaker 1: it does. I mean this was this was an episode

952
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 1: of the and we got to give chicks in the

953
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: office credit. I mean, they did a great job here.

954
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:40,520
Speaker 1: Um and uh, but it was an episode you're listening

955
00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 1: to and you I've talked about it here. You know,

956
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:44,800
Speaker 1: when you get like cringe worthy, cringe worthy, like you

957
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:46,719
Speaker 1: feel like you're hearing stuff that you shouldn't be hearing

958
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:48,759
Speaker 1: and that you're involved in a conversation. This is what

959
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:50,839
Speaker 1: I felt like. Almost the whole time. I was like, oh,

960
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,319
Speaker 1: this is tough. I I don't I want to hear it,

961
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:54,879
Speaker 1: but I can't. I can't stop listening, but I don't

962
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 1: want to hear this. Uh big podcast. A lot of

963
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:02,280
Speaker 1: things said, um, and I mean, it definitely doesn't sound

964
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 1: like Kelly and Peter on good terms. I think we

965
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 1: can assume that she says this, Okay, this is what

966
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:12,440
Speaker 1: happened She said that he texted her, she didn't respond

967
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:16,480
Speaker 1: and then found out some news I wasn't happy with.

968
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:19,279
Speaker 1: I found out news that I wasn't happy with. We

969
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 1: still had each other on my on Find my Friends.

970
00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:25,319
Speaker 1: We were closing it out. It was ending, but not

971
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:30,440
Speaker 1: necessarily done. So that's that's the illusion for y'all. A

972
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:34,799
Speaker 1: lot going on here, Well, final headline of today, and

973
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 1: again there has been a lot and there always is.

974
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:41,680
Speaker 1: We'll end on a brighter note here. Bachelor's Hayley Ferguson

975
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:46,719
Speaker 1: has the same bridal party as twin sister Emily, and shocking,

976
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 1: they will combine their bachelorette parties. This according to us.

977
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 1: I mean not much to say beyond that, but how

978
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 1: convenient You've got some money saving tactics going there. You

979
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,600
Speaker 1: have the same bridal party, So that means that they

980
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:04,640
Speaker 1: are going to have the same bachelorette parties and the

981
00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:07,880
Speaker 1: same bridal shower. They're all going to be combined. They

982
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:10,759
Speaker 1: will not have the same weddings. They do say that

983
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,640
Speaker 1: they both have really different wedding styles, so it'll be

984
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 1: nice to add their own touches to those things. But

985
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:20,000
Speaker 1: they are so excited to be engaged in planning weddings

986
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:24,000
Speaker 1: at the same time. So awesome. I bet that's gonna

987
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 1: be a blasts. It's fun to celebrate those two well, Ashley. Uh,

1017
00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:09,080
Speaker 1: years now, is that right? Yes? That is wow? Okay,

1018
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:13,279
Speaker 1: so how did you design these almost famous four year

1019
00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:15,880
Speaker 1: anniversary rings? Like? Are you a fan of The Bachelor

1020
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 1: and Bachelorette? Did you bring inspiration from the show into

1021
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:23,880
Speaker 1: the design? So yes, I'm a Bachelor and Bachelorette fan

1022
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:27,479
Speaker 1: and mostly Paradise fan. So I'm hoping that that's back

1023
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:32,120
Speaker 1: this year. Back good. I can't wait. It's my guilty pleasure.

1024
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:34,640
Speaker 1: But yeah, I you know, I've been watching the show

1025
00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 1: for so many years, and it's interesting the transition of

1026
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:43,480
Speaker 1: the girl's jewelry as time's gone on, and now you

1027
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:47,320
Speaker 1: start to see that everybody's really fashioned forward and making statements.

1028
00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 1: And so when they asked me if I'd be interested

1029
00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:51,959
Speaker 1: in doing something like this, I wanted to do something

1030
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:53,720
Speaker 1: that I would wear that I think is great and

1031
00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:56,440
Speaker 1: funky and cool. And then somebody would say, hey, where'd

1032
00:57:56,440 --> 00:58:01,840
Speaker 1: you get your ring? So with this ring, it is

1033
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 1: really cool? Have you designed for anyone who's been in bachelination?

1034
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:10,920
Speaker 1: Has bachelination at all? Warner stuff before before? Now you

1035
00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 1: guys are the first. Hey, that's unexciting. That's very awesome.

1036
00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for doing this. Who would you

1037
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 1: if you had to jewel? You know, how do you

1038
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 1: say that Frost themselves for Paradise? Which contestant would you

1039
00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:34,200
Speaker 1: most want to see your stuff on? Oh? There's a

1040
00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 1: lot of you I really liked, so that would not

1041
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:40,160
Speaker 1: be fair if I didn't say you. But no, it's okay,

1042
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:42,080
Speaker 1: don't say me, because I'm not going to be on

1043
00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:45,440
Speaker 1: Paradise many there's so many of you guys that I

1044
00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:52,240
Speaker 1: that I just adore watching I would say Caitlin because

1045
00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:56,680
Speaker 1: she's a little on the badass side. Yes, I would

1046
00:58:58,040 --> 00:58:59,440
Speaker 1: be kind of it would be kind of cool to

1047
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 1: do something like that for her. I do something more

1048
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,280
Speaker 1: like black diamonds or something a little more edgy. But

1049
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think there's a lot of a

1050
00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 1: lot of girls in your in your group that just

1051
00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:14,600
Speaker 1: would be an honor to get to do something with them. Well,

1052
00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:17,160
Speaker 1: speaking of rings, rings in Caitlin Burstow, what do you

1053
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:21,720
Speaker 1: feel about like her engagement rings? Yeah? Well, you know

1054
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,840
Speaker 1: what's interesting? So I have done engagement rings for clients,

1055
00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:28,280
Speaker 1: and that's the new thing, and that has not been

1056
00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:30,439
Speaker 1: the new thing for a long time. That other people

1057
00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:35,040
Speaker 1: are asking for different settings a little more traditional, the

1058
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:39,240
Speaker 1: double halo, the cushion cut, there's all those different things

1059
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:43,880
Speaker 1: that I've always been requested. And ever since Instagram has

1060
00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:47,720
Speaker 1: taken off and all these bachelorettes are posting their new rings,

1061
00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 1: like Joe, Joe and Caitlin, it's a it's a totally

1062
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:55,240
Speaker 1: different style than I'm used to seeing. I mean, it's

1063
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,720
Speaker 1: a Chile that's come back. Isn't that crazy how the

1064
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:02,320
Speaker 1: trends change every few years. Because my wedding band I

1065
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:04,880
Speaker 1: feel like my what my band and my engagement ring

1066
01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:09,680
Speaker 1: was the it looking one three years ago and now

1067
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 1: it's all that small, tiny band, big stone look. Yeah yeah,

1068
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:17,800
Speaker 1: but see that stuff, and I think all of it's great.

1069
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,560
Speaker 1: But for me, I'm a girl with crazy long, curly

1070
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:22,960
Speaker 1: hair that would be caught in my hair every day.

1071
01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,720
Speaker 1: So something that you want to wear and can be convenient,

1072
01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 1: so for me that would never work. But do you

1073
01:00:30,640 --> 01:00:35,000
Speaker 1: see in your profession, like when the Joe Joe's and

1074
01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:37,720
Speaker 1: the Caitlin's of the world post their rings, Like, can

1075
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:41,840
Speaker 1: you feel the change in your place of work? Did

1076
01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:43,480
Speaker 1: people ever come in saying, hey, this is what I saw,

1077
01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 1: this is what I want to wear, or like, are

1078
01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:49,320
Speaker 1: they trend setters? You know? I mean they aren't, except

1079
01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:53,880
Speaker 1: for my clientele is a little bit older, so where

1080
01:00:53,880 --> 01:01:00,160
Speaker 1: more of mid to late thirties to fifties, So it's

1081
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:06,400
Speaker 1: they're not really taking the trend from these influencers as

1082
01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:09,920
Speaker 1: much for spending this kind of money. However, I have

1083
01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:13,320
Speaker 1: in the most recent few months been asked if I

1084
01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 1: can do something and then they'll show me a picture

1085
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:19,000
Speaker 1: of one of those rings. So I guess it's slowly happening.

1086
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:23,920
Speaker 1: That's a lot of power. That's a big deal. Um.

1087
01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:27,040
Speaker 1: So when it comes to this almost famous ring, what

1088
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:31,040
Speaker 1: what's what are you most excited about? Well, I mean

1089
01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:38,440
Speaker 1: I think that anything that brings business to me and

1090
01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 1: I can get my name out there and my company

1091
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:45,240
Speaker 1: out there more is you know, obviously the key to it.

1092
01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:50,000
Speaker 1: But then to be able to do something for personalities

1093
01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:52,520
Speaker 1: that you already feel like you know a little bit,

1094
01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:55,000
Speaker 1: it's kind of exciting, and you know, you get a

1095
01:01:55,000 --> 01:02:00,280
Speaker 1: little bit of bread rights for everybody who does not

1096
01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:03,919
Speaker 1: win these four rings, they can get your jewelry at

1097
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:07,480
Speaker 1: Love around the Neck dot com anything else you want

1098
01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 1: to add. So just I'm not online, and the reason

1099
01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:16,640
Speaker 1: why I'm not online is because I do wholesale pricing.

1100
01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:19,439
Speaker 1: So it's really through my Instagram, which is Love around

1101
01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:22,600
Speaker 1: the Neck. But I don't have my presidents because I

1102
01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:27,200
Speaker 1: give wholesale pricing and it creates issues with stores and designers.

1103
01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:33,720
Speaker 1: So I'm basically through Instagram and then they DM me

1104
01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:36,720
Speaker 1: and then we go from there. Gotcha all right? Well,

1105
01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:38,920
Speaker 1: thank you so much for doing what you're doing for us,
