1
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: Welcome back to our Bachelor Happy Hour listeners, and it

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,840
Speaker 1: is an exciting episode because we, of course saw so

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 1: much go down on last night's finale, and I have

4
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 1: my lovely co hostation here who not only obviously has

5
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: been doing all the recaps with me, but Tasia, you

6
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: were there. You hosted, which first I have to say

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,240
Speaker 1: you and Caitlin did a phenomenal job. I just love

8
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 1: seeing you girls on stage. You just held down the flour.

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: You did such an incredible job, and so I felt

10
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 1: like like a proud friend watching you both out there.

11
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 1: But it was an explosive Bachelorette finale, I think one

12
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: of the most explosive ones we've seen in a while.

13
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,560
Speaker 1: So I can't wait to hear your take on things because,

14
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: like I said, you hosted it, you were there, you

15
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: witnessed everything firsthand. So thank you for being able to

16
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: recap this one, especially with us. Oh my gosh, are

17
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 1: you kidding? This is the icing on the cake? But

18
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: it was quite an episode. I cannot wait to talk

19
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: to you about it. But I'm also so excited for

20
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: our guest for this week's episode. The beautiful couple Katie

21
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: and Blake are here and we're just gonna be able

22
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: to ask them all the questions we've been dying to ask,

23
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: So let's get into it, which we will have a

24
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: lot to talk to them about. And so I know

25
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: each week we try to like recap what we saw

26
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,199
Speaker 1: go down, and there was obviously a lot within this finale,

27
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: but ultimately there's just so much love, so much happiness,

28
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: and that's why we're having Blake and Katie on. So

29
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: instead of like recapping each bit, I really just want

30
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: to get into like a major moment, a major highlight

31
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: for us, and then just bring the happy couple on

32
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: because that's that's that's why we're here, That's why you know,

33
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: we do this season by season, And so I think overall,

34
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: I mean, for you being on the season, being able

35
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: to watch the finale back and then also being able

36
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: to host what was like your major moment or takeaway

37
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: from less night's episode. You know, for me, I always

38
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: say in introducing the family into the mix is just

39
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: so different and that's what really brings the reality of

40
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: it all. And I thought it was really I mean,

41
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: as much as Aunt lindsay kind of just like put

42
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: me in my place, I thought it was really cool

43
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: to see her just be so real, raw and like

44
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: straight with Blake and kind of just tell him, you know,

45
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: this is the reality of the fact, like are you

46
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: ready for all of this? I just thought it was

47
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,519
Speaker 1: really as intense as it was. It was just kind

48
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 1: of it was real, and I loved seeing the love

49
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: that she has for Katie and how protective she is.

50
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: But I think the most surreal moment for me, and

51
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: like the fact that I was actually there for the season,

52
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: was being with Blake picking out engagement rings. It was

53
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: really special. It was an experience I've never had before,

54
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 1: but also just being able to live through that with him.

55
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: It just reminded me of like my relationship and like

56
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: what guys go through in that moment moment, and it

57
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: was just a really it was really touching moment. So

58
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: it's something we've never seen before. Usually we have mister

59
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 1: Neilan himself come and I love Neil Lane, so I

60
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 1: will say I did kind of misseeeing his face and

61
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: his pizzaz But it was so fun having you they're

62
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: sitting in that moment, because not only do you bring

63
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: a new perspective just being a female and a past

64
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: lead who has gone through this but it's something that

65
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: you both kind of experience, I think for the first

66
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: time together of like Blake has fallen in love or

67
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: is in love with this woman. This woman is your

68
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: good friend, and so I think it was nice that

69
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: you two had each other to kind of go through

70
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: that ensure that moment. It was really special as of

71
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: view where I will say, like, and I love change,

72
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: I love seeing new things unfold, and so I liked

73
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: the fact that in also like he was kind of

74
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: struggling a little bit in that moment, kind of on

75
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: the fence of like if he actually wanted to pick

76
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: out a ring and get engaged on that day. So

77
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: I think it was good that he had you. He

78
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: obviously knew you and had some sort of friendship foundation,

79
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: and in that moment, I think you really helped him

80
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: through it. Yeah, it was. It was a little stressful,

81
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: I am not gonna lie, But also at the same time,

82
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: like it was really cool seeing because like I know

83
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: Blake from obviously from my season, but to see him

84
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: like completely grow into this person then now looking for

85
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: at engagement rings for a future fiance, Like, it was

86
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: just it was super special and I was so proud

87
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: of him. So but I mean that boy really made

88
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: me stressed out in that moment. I was, Oh, we're

89
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: gonna talking about it. I don't, Yeah, we will. We

90
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 1: will grill him on that moment because obviously he is

91
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 1: the one who decided to get down on one knee,

92
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: but he happy she did a little bit. I wasn't

93
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: quite sure he was gonna do um. One thing I

94
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 1: want to just talk about briefly during after the final

95
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: rows was the explosive moment when Katie and Greg actually interacted.

96
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: And I don't want to fixate on this because again,

97
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,359
Speaker 1: the show was about love and we found that with

98
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: Katie and Blake, we had this beautiful also, this beautiful engagement.

99
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: Now there, I'm assuming happy and young and in love

100
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: and about to live this great, incredible fun life and

101
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: like really start this relationship. But since you were there,

102
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: I mean, because it was very tense to watch that

103
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: interaction between Katie and Greg, I can only imagine what

104
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: you and Caitlyn were feeling in that moment. So take

105
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: us back, like, how seated was it? I mean, truthfully,

106
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: I think even Caitlyn said something we both noticed the

107
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 1: second Katie was they stepped on stage that there was

108
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: just a lot of tension, and I think it's also

109
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 1: because at one point that these two people really cared

110
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: about each other. But also I really want to commend

111
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: Katie for sticking up for herself and really just letting know,

112
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:52,159
Speaker 1: letting Greg know like how his actions affected her. And

113
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: I think that was a really empowering moment just for

114
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: women in general, just to know that like, hey, I

115
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: need to also share my truth and like this is

116
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: how I felt in that moment and you abandoned me,

117
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: like you know so. And also at the same time,

118
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 1: for Greg, I know that he was feeling all of

119
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: the things as well. So it was a really tough

120
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: position to be sitting in because you saw these two

121
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: people really have a lot of emotions and feelings. But yeah,

122
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: it was heated. It was just I think, like how

123
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: they ended, and then playing into this last conversation that

124
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: they had, it just seemed like two people who were

125
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: just did not communicate on the same level and just

126
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: were not clearly not on the same page. And I

127
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 1: don't think there was really going to be much resolution.

128
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 1: I know the last sentiment that they shared was that

129
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: they both wished the best for each other, and I

130
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: hope that that is the case. I hope that they

131
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 1: can move on from this and you know, focus on

132
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 1: themselves and Katie's new relationship and just you know, leave

133
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: it as I truly do. Wish you the best and

134
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 1: take care of Time will tell, But I think for

135
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 1: everything we saw after that with Katie and Blake, they

136
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: seem very happy, so I think that that we should

137
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: just bring them on right now. I agree. I'm so

138
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: excited to talk to the newly engaged couple. Welcome Katie

139
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: and Blake. Ah, you guys, I'm so excited we have

140
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: the happy couple here. Congratulations to both of you. How

141
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: are you guys feeling I mean a little overwhelmed but

142
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: excited that we finally got to this point. Yeah, we're

143
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: just like, we're just ready to start life. Like it's

144
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: been great living in Secretcy, but we want to just

145
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: start living life and that starts in a couple of days.

146
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: Isn't it so bizarre? Like obviously you went through all

147
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: of filming, you had this limbo phase of when the

148
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: show is now airing, so of course you are in

149
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: these hidden happy couple houses every couple weeks, able to

150
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: still see each other. But did you hit a point

151
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: throughout the past couple months while it's been airing where

152
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: you're just like, I am over this shit. I just

153
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: want to be in public, like what was that moment

154
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: for you? Or when did that happen? I guess I

155
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: should ask. I think pretty I would say pretty early.

156
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: You know, it's nice like having these these happy couple

157
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: of houses, but it's just new too, and you just like,

158
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, you want to you want to celebrate

159
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: with more than just yourselves, like and it's great to

160
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: like get to know each other, but it's also like

161
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: feels like a fantasy world in a little bit still, yes,

162
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: so you just want to step into the real world

163
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: and like do things, go grab a coffee, like hold

164
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: hands in the car, like do shit that, like the

165
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: cute little things that like make you feel like you're

166
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: truly in a relationship In this case of engagement, doesn't

167
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: it feel like it's kind of like you're living like

168
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: a double life, Like one part of your life, you're

169
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: so happy you have this person, and you're like, I

170
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: don't know, doing all these things, naing to know each other.

171
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,079
Speaker 1: But then you like go back home and then nobody

172
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 1: knows any of that, and it's like, am I dreaming? Yeah?

173
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: Does that actually exist? Yeah? I completely relate with it.

174
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:54,239
Speaker 1: It's like you, I remember being so happy during that engagement,

175
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: but I couldn't even say my fiance's name in public

176
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: or to my family. I couldn't even say the name

177
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 1: for a couple of months. And that's such like it's

178
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 1: the weirdest thing that no one, I think can fully understand.

179
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: Um what like what are what's the one thing you

180
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: look forward to most now that you are public and

181
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 1: can be out in the real world that you want

182
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: to do? I mean just being out like we've been

183
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: living in essentially like a box, which was our entire

184
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: season as well. So just getting to get in the

185
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,559
Speaker 1: car and drive together. Our next step is actually we're

186
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,959
Speaker 1: going to Canada together. So I think that's going to

187
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: just be really fun and excited to just be out

188
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,439
Speaker 1: in the real world, see his family, see his cottage

189
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 1: that he talks so much about. Yeah, so I think

190
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: it's like sharing like the passions, right, Like, I think

191
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: it'll be um fun to just go see what she

192
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: loves to do and like see what makes her super

193
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: happy like in the real world, and then you know,

194
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: to bring how her coming like cottage and wildlife type

195
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: things where like she sees me and my ole. I mean,

196
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:57,719
Speaker 1: I think that I'll really like bringing things together for us, Right, So, like,

197
00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 1: how does it feel what the news being out there

198
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: now and now everybody knowing how this thing ended. Is

199
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: it like a ton of bricks have been lifted off

200
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: your shoulders? Does it kind of feel like okay, wait,

201
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 1: we still have a couple of days of like craziness

202
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: to get acclimated to. Like what are you guys feeling?

203
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 1: I mean, for me, I personally feel like it's finally

204
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: come full circle. I'm done. It's all in the past,

205
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,199
Speaker 1: which is watching it back, the heavy thing, reading about

206
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: yourself and having to talk about it's a heavy thing.

207
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 1: And now we're on a point where it's like it's

208
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 1: just him and I. We can just focus for I

209
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,559
Speaker 1: like what actually matters and not have to keep reliving

210
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 1: these like old relationships and that people dissect and try

211
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 1: and figure out, you know, who's it going to be

212
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 1: social just like officially start you know, our relationship as

213
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,959
Speaker 1: a normal couple. Yeah. I think it's a weird combination

214
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,719
Speaker 1: of being excited about like we'll call the peak or

215
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: like the climax, of what this is and you you're

216
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: excited about this next couple of days, but at the

217
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: same time you can just want to get through it.

218
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,839
Speaker 1: So it's a weird feeling. Let me ask you this,

219
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 1: so two part questions, and here one, Katie, you mentioned

220
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: on last night's finale that your this was the first

221
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: time your family was hearing that you were together engaged.

222
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: What has the reception with them been like? And they

223
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: weren't really surprised, you know, they given that first of all,

224
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: they only met Blake, so they knew there wasn't anyone

225
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: else to consider, and with them seeing how we were

226
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: then you no matter what that we were definitely together.

227
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: They just didn't know if it was an engagement or

228
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: just as a boyfriend and girlfriend. And so they're just

229
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: really supportive. They trust my opinion and they just want

230
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: me to be happy. This is one thing I wanted

231
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: to say, going back to Katie, when you say, you know,

232
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 1: it's been hard to have everyone's opinions and you have

233
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: to read them about yourself. Right now, if I can

234
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: give any bit of advice that I think it's pretty solid.

235
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: I don't give great advice all the time, but now

236
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: that this is finally out in the open, you've lived

237
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: out your love story for everybody to see. I would say,

238
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: put your phones away for a few days, like, don't

239
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 1: log in, don't go on social media, don't go on

240
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 1: any forums. Just literally talk it under a pillow and

241
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: let it sit there for a few days and just

242
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: soak in time with each other because it's so important

243
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: to just build that solid foundation away from everyone's thoughts

244
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: and opinions and criticism, because there's going to be some

245
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 1: incredible stuff and so many well wishes coming your way.

246
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 1: But of course, the harsh reality is like there's still

247
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 1: trolls and haters out there that don't matter, but they're

248
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 1: still gonna say whatever they want. So just decompress, throw

249
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: the phones down the toilet for a little bit if

250
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: you have to, but but really just soak in and

251
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: enjoy the time together between the two of you, because

252
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: that's that's all that matters at this point. Yeah, we're

253
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 1: definitely plan on doing that. Whatever. We've also battled our

254
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: fair share of trolls and all those things along this

255
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 1: way too. Second, we're well equipped now to just be

256
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: like literally Caitlin also said the exact same advice, like

257
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 1: two days ago was like any advice and give you

258
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: don't look on your phones for like the next couple

259
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 1: of days. And so to hear it from two match trends,

260
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, this serious. At the same time, you

261
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: guys are gonna be so happy and like being able

262
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: to like enjoy your time, and you're also going to

263
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: be exhausted from all this stuff that you guys are

264
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 1: doing that you won't really want to be interested in

265
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. I mean, always right in your world,

266
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: you're right next to each other. That's all I need

267
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: to worry about, you know. Um Okay, So obviously we

268
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 1: watched Blake it down on one knee last night. We

269
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: watched the beautiful words that you guys shared with each other.

270
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: I loved this proposal because it seems like you had

271
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 1: the serious heartfelt mixed with the fun like spontaneity that

272
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: you guys that we've seen. I guess since Blake has

273
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: joined the show. So rewatching that moment back, what was

274
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: that like? Did they bring back all of the feelings again? Well,

275
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 1: watching it back, I noticed it might not be as

276
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 1: obvious to viewers, but to me, I wasn't sure he

277
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: was proposing until he got down on one knee. So

278
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: as he's talking, I'm thinking he's gearing me out to

279
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: say like I love you, but let's like wait, you know,

280
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: And so I was just like really happy and like, okay,

281
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: it's finally. I'm just ready to leave with him no

282
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: matter what. And then when he gets down on one knee,

283
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 1: I'm truly just so shocked that it's happy because I'd

284
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: already in that moment excepted that he was not going

285
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: to And so I cry every time I watch it.

286
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: It makes me happy. It was such a beautiful moment.

287
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 1: And also what I will say what made it too

288
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 1: is you two cute kids were adorable and gave us

289
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: all the fields. But then when Tatia and Caitlin came

290
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 1: running into when you all had this moment together, which

291
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: we've never seen on the show before. Because you've had

292
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: now two other people, two other Bachelordes, who have gone

293
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: through the same thing. They know exactly kind of Katie,

294
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: what you have been feeling in certain moments. To celebrate

295
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: that love in that moment with you, I think made

296
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: everything so special that I think it was a really

297
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: great moment for all of us few were to watch. Yeah,

298
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: I love that they were there, because it did feel like,

299
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: you know, if we were being he was proposing to

300
00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: me in the real world, you know, like you kind

301
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: of had to get your friends family hiding in like

302
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: the bushes, and then when you say yes, they come out,

303
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: and so it just felt like the perfect way to

304
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: kind of like wrap it up, say our goodbyes to

305
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: them because they had helped us the entire time, and

306
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 1: then like quite literally ride off into the sunset. Yeah.

307
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: I think it was like the closest feeling you could

308
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: get to me on the show, like having feeling like,

309
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: you know, two friends like being there to like celebrate

310
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 1: it with you. I don't think yeah, if you if

311
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 1: you think about I don't think you've there's ever been

312
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: that where No, it's never happened. So it happened. No,

313
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 1: So yeah, no, that was it. Just it just tied

314
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: end nicely, like it just what are you cherry cherry

315
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: on top American expression. I didn't know, Blake, did you

316
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: rip your pants? Did you actually rip your pants when

317
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: you got on the horse? They were fitting so tight,

318
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: But I guess when they were doing the fitting, carry

319
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: didn't know that we're gonna beet jumping up on a horse.

320
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: So we made them like skin tight, and when I jumped,

321
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 1: it literally slipped the side of my pants. And that's

322
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: the thing about his pants, they were so tight. I

323
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: remember looking at his I'm punk it's seeing like, okay,

324
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: is there a ring box in there? And I see

325
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: a ring box? So even then, oh my gosh, you're good.

326
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: I was like, it's not happy, but behind right, yeah,

327
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: And so I was like okay, Like I was already

328
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: in my head like a second I saw him. I'm

329
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: like observing everything about him. Wore I could have never

330
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: thought to do that. That's that's sneaky. We can't overlook this,

331
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: and I can't believe I didn't. But I asked about

332
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: Blake's pants before I mentioned this. But Katie, you looked phenomenal.

333
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: Your dress was stunning. That color, Oh my gosh, I've

334
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: never seen anyone, I think on the show we're addressed

335
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 1: like that emerald color. It was beautiful. You look stunning.

336
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: Thank you. Yeah. I wanted to also incorporate his favorite color,

337
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 1: which is green, and so when this dress was available,

338
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: I was like, that's the one. Okay. So since you've

339
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: finished filming, um, you know, I know, it's been kind

340
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: of tough because you have been secluded in these happy

341
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: couple houses. What's been your favorite part or what is

342
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: something that you have enjoyed getting to know about each

343
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: other while while this has all been aired before, you

344
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: know you've gotten to this point. For me, it's not

345
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: even about things I'm getting to learn. It's actually getting

346
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,959
Speaker 1: to like truly measure the progression of our relationship. Like

347
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: I remember our first happy couple, how weird it almost felt,

348
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 1: and it's just like, oh, we're just here, there's no camera.

349
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 1: It was like our first time really getting to be

350
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: with each other. And comparing that to like this happy couple,

351
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: we're just completely a different couple in general. We're a

352
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: lot stronger, our love is a lot stronger, and we

353
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 1: know each other a lot more. It's just fun to

354
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: be able to kind of see it progress each and

355
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 1: every time. Yeah, I think for me it's like it's

356
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: it's been exciting because these little happy couples that felt

357
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: like a sneak peek into what married being married to

358
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: her will be like, and like the maturity, just the

359
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 1: little things that she does sort of the day like

360
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: without I don't know, I don't want to explain it,

361
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 1: but um, she's just very just mature. She just she's

362
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 1: just like you can see how good of a wife

363
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: she'll be, and like that's like the little things that

364
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,360
Speaker 1: she does even on a daily basis, but like through

365
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: the facetimes and things, she's just very um. You can

366
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 1: just tell, you can just tell where this is going.

367
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 1: And I think that's exciting because it's like it's now

368
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 1: right around the corner. Like I said, isn't it crazy

369
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: waking up away from cameras and being able to just

370
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: like sleep in and cook meals together when you want

371
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: and play like do everything now on your own terms

372
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 1: without a schedule from the show, which is like all

373
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: up to you, and that that's one of at least

374
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: for me, that was one of the most exciting parts. Yeah,

375
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: I love obviously having nobody around, and in some ways

376
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: even these happy couples still feel like a schedule because like,

377
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 1: all right, you have this amount of time and then

378
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: you're off to your own houses again. And so this

379
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: week has just been like the best because now it's

380
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 1: finally like truly no show, no schedules, our true own

381
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,920
Speaker 1: life and agenda. What are you guys doing for fun?

382
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 1: Because I know, like, well I could probably tell you

383
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 1: what they're girl girl trying to talk about that right now?

384
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: It's not that kind of podcast although, or is it?

385
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,679
Speaker 1: But um no, just being in the house now, like

386
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 1: what are you guys doing for fun? Because you went

387
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: from you know, kind of having you know, days that

388
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: were presented to you and ideas that would kind of

389
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: bring you guys together. But now you guys are in

390
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:25,360
Speaker 1: the house, Like, what are you guys doing to get

391
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: to know each other? Like games or one of the trips.

392
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 1: We did actually bring a game called We're Not Really Strangers,

393
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: which is love that such a good one. Yeah, so

394
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: we played that early on. But obviously since then we

395
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: don't even need like that kind of support. We just,

396
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: you know, we're just together enjoying each other's time. Typically

397
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: these places have cool so we're just like relaxing and chilling. Yeah,

398
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 1: just hanging out. Oh yeah, I feel like I'm proud

399
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 1: of her for that one. I kind of expected that.

400
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 1: Have you been going back and forth between the happy

401
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 1: couple of homes in Canada? Yeah, which has been a

402
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: nightmare because I've been living basically the summer in quarantine

403
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 1: because we have fourteen days when we get home, so

404
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: I would go, we go have a happy couples. I

405
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: would go in quarantine for fourteen days and then have

406
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: like maybe four or five days off before coming back

407
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 1: here again. So it's been it's been a battle for sure.

408
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 1: Wait did you sneak to Washington at all? Now? It's

409
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: like impossible to do it. You can't with the border stuff.

410
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 1: It's too much of a pain. And like, yeah, bachelor caught.

411
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 1: That's how he gives it away. He gets caught into

412
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:44,679
Speaker 1: the border, right, Okay, Katie. One thing that you mentioned

413
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 1: in the finale last night is obviously Blake came in

414
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 1: a few weeks late, and so he didn't come out

415
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: of the limo. You didn't meet him night one, So

416
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,439
Speaker 1: I think most people would probably have felt like you

417
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 1: had to play catch up in a way. But for

418
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,479
Speaker 1: you to the transition of Blake coming in, it just

419
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 1: seemed so seamless. And you said he came in at

420
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 1: the right time. Do you think had he walked out

421
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: of that limo night one, things would have played out

422
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: a bit differently. I don't think they would have. I mean,

423
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: the overall season, sure, but our relationship and us being

424
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: together at the end, I don't think so. I remember

425
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 1: you know meeting everyone the first time, and I picture,

426
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: had I met him the same way I did, but

427
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: it was the first night, it would have been the

428
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: same exact feelings. I'm like, Wow, this is instant. It

429
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,360
Speaker 1: feels so easy, it feels so natural. And I think

430
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: what maybe stood out and like kind of had in

431
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 1: his favorite was he'd gone through this before, so there

432
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: was a level of like chill with him in terms

433
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 1: of like the cameras didn't phase him and the environment,

434
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: which then made me feel calm because I'm nervous as

435
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: the lead, and so if anything, I wish he was

436
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 1: there night one because that was a crazy night in general.

437
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 1: But I think the altbum would have absolutely been the same. Yeah, Blake,

438
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 1: do you think it would have been the same. Yes,

439
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 1: I think no matter how or when I came on,

440
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: I had a sort of level of confidence myself with

441
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 1: having experience and knowing how this kind of works, but

442
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,199
Speaker 1: also the intuition I had it out Katie regardless of

443
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: when I met her along the way was going to

444
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 1: be the same, and it would have probably all came

445
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: out the exact same way. It probably honestly would have

446
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: been stronger because I would have been there longer, and

447
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: I think maybe the storyline of things maybe would have changed.

448
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 1: But besides from that, no, oh, I just thought of this, Katie.

449
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: This is a question for you. So when he did

450
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 1: come in late, you know, we saw you have the

451
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 1: conversation with a group of men saying somebody's coming. Then

452
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,919
Speaker 1: you're thrust into however many men were left, what like

453
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 1: twelve or fifteen or something, Katie, did you ever feel

454
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 1: like this in that moment, like this level of maybe

455
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 1: protectiveness or like, you know, don't don't go so hard

456
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 1: on this man, because I actually could see something with him,

457
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,199
Speaker 1: like did you feel that like the like stab of like, oh,

458
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: like I want to take care of him kind of. Honestly, No,

459
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 1: he's so confident in himself that I not once was

460
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: I worried about how he was going to handle it.

461
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 1: I was actually surprised that overall everyone's pretty accepting of him. Um,

462
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: But ultimately I was like, good luck, I have my

463
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: own things to worry about, wishing the best, and yeah,

464
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,439
Speaker 1: he did just sign without me, you know, being there

465
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: to protect him. It's funny though, because Blake also knows

466
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: what it feels like to have people come in later

467
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,640
Speaker 1: in the game. Too, So I think he even said

468
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: that He's like, I know, the guys are not gonna

469
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 1: be very accepting of me, and I'm just going to

470
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 1: kind of just ease myself into there. So that's really

471
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: interesting though, because he probably knew how to navigate it

472
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: a lot better because that happened, you know, like he was, Yeah,

473
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 1: I definitely remember what it was like when Noah, Spencer, Peter,

474
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: and Montella walked in. Um yeah, did everyone liked? Everyone

475
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 1: was pissed, like you're not nice? Yeah, So I think,

476
00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: you know, there's a way. I think Spencer came in

477
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: and said, which of y'all scared Claire away? It was

478
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 1: the first thing he said. And I wasn't going to

479
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: come in and at that type of energy because I know, yeah,

480
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 1: and so I was just I know, I think the

481
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: number one thing in those type of situations is trying

482
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 1: to be understanding and empathize with the other person, because

483
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,439
Speaker 1: then you can navigate it better. If you're coming in

484
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,360
Speaker 1: like thinking about just me at fuck it, fuck them,

485
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: it's just just not going to go well. So I

486
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 1: tried to empathize with the situation they were in and

487
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: like just kind of think a backseat and just kind

488
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: of let things kind of play out and so and

489
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm pretty personally I don't usually get all

490
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 1: invite you guys and stuff. So I wasn't too worried

491
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 1: about once I could sit down at Chet conversations with

492
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 1: the guys, it was going to be. Okayans are really

493
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: nice and I mean it's very obvious. It's actually a thing. Listen,

494
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: so many of my girlfriends love the Canadians. I'll tell

495
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: you what, so, Blake, if you have any single friends

496
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,439
Speaker 1: for some of them, let me know, because well, I mean,

497
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: do you do you like the Brandon with the cockatou hair.

498
00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 1: Don't ask me, I'll ask my girlfriends. But um, okay,

499
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 1: going back to you, obviously have already gone through this

500
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 1: on a different season. Besides the obvious of whoever the

501
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: lead was, what was different about this time around being

502
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 1: on the season. What was the most different besides from

503
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: the leads as you say, yeah, I think the group

504
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:24,199
Speaker 1: of guys was a very different energy almost. It was

505
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,920
Speaker 1: like a yes, you know, we talked about like the

506
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: bromance of it. I wouldn't say there's like a lack

507
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: of immaturity or maturity between the groups. I don't know

508
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: what it was. It was just like the group of

509
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: guys were way more close, like I was like careful

510
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 1: and how I wanted to like navigate and to want

511
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 1: to step on to you because people were very like

512
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: sensitive about the time and things like that in comparison.

513
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 1: So it was just I think that, but I would

514
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 1: say that would be the only like major difference beside

515
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 1: aside from the lead Like there wasn't It wasn't much else. Yeah,

516
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,719
Speaker 1: I guess because you lived in the bubble for both seasons.

517
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,640
Speaker 1: It's not like you were on a past season where

518
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: you were able to travel or crazy. Yeah. Yeah. The weather,

519
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: I mean the weather, you know, it was drenched in

520
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: sweat every day going through the last season. This was

521
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 1: it Just that's the one thing I added a full

522
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: level of comfort. When you're sitting there having conversations where

523
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 1: you're area being nervous and then there's the heat, it

524
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: just makes things more uncomfortable and you're thinking about the

525
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 1: beads of sweat come down thing, as well as trying

526
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 1: to have a conversation on camera. There's no there's no seat,

527
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: I could just like focus. It was just more comfortable saying, well,

528
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 1: it all worked out look where we're at now. One

529
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: thing that we've seen from Katie this entire season is,

530
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 1: and even on Matt season, I will say, is like

531
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: she's always been very strong, outspoken. And Katie, you've you've

532
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 1: dealt with a lot throughout all of this, like you've

533
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,360
Speaker 1: you know, being in this position in general, you open

534
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: yourself up to so much criticism and you just are

535
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: so vulnerable. So Lake as her partner, watching her go

536
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: through all of this, you know, and having to really

537
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,880
Speaker 1: take on being the face of the franchise, how has

538
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 1: that been like to support her through everything? Uh, you know,

539
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: it's it's honestly been fairly easy because she's she's just

540
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: bold and confident and she just handles her ship. And

541
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: that's one thing that we always talk about. I think

542
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: that one thing that we like about each other is

543
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: that we have such a confidence that I don't worry

544
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: about how she necessarily handles things and if she needs me,

545
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 1: I'm always going to be here. But that's one thing

546
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 1: that I M really look for in a partner is

547
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 1: that you know, life's going to throw crazy things, and

548
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,479
Speaker 1: so to have a strong partner that really handles her

549
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,920
Speaker 1: own but knows that I'm there a support or whenever

550
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: I need, whenever she needs me, and vice versa. Like,

551
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: you know, I don't want her to feel like a

552
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 1: burden like she needs she needs to necessarily take care

553
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,640
Speaker 1: of me. We have both have very confident personalities and

554
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 1: handle things our own way. And um, yeah, it's it's been.

555
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 1: It's been nice. It's just a maturity level there that

556
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 1: I'm not haven't been used to. Kay, Do you feel

557
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,400
Speaker 1: the same. Oh yeah, I mean when I think of

558
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,760
Speaker 1: any times that either him or I have struggled, because

559
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 1: it don't get us wrong, we definitely have had times

560
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: where we had to lean on the other person. It's

561
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: just been nice to see how we are able to

562
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 1: pull each other out of that dark space of whatever

563
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 1: it is that we're going through and really make it

564
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: to what we've been calling like a finish line. You know.

565
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,679
Speaker 1: The one thing about us is that there's just a

566
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 1: sense of how level headed and like grounded we are,

567
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: and we always like to take a deep breath and

568
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 1: just like think about what, like just processing what are

569
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 1: we getting worked up for? There's no reason to We're fine,

570
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: And it's just like we both kind of have that

571
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 1: where not one or the other ever freaks out about

572
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: a situation, it's always calm conversation, and that communication has

573
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: just been huge to this point. I love that it

574
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: seems like you guys keep each other both very grounded,

575
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 1: which is I think, especially at each other very well.

576
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: What has been and one of the hardest moments so

577
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 1: far up until this point for the both of you.

578
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it kind of goes without saying

579
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 1: the Greg episode is a heavy one for just numerous reasons.

580
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: But what we kept doing with each other as reminding

581
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: ourselves of like who we are today as a couple.

582
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: You know what that environment does when you're dating multiple

583
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: people and how you're viewing each individual relationship. And that

584
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: was something we were actually able to really get through together,

585
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 1: which I think was kind of like the final test

586
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 1: in our relationship at least through reliving that experience. You know,

587
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 1: that would have been the hardest part, and we were

588
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: able to still get through that as well. Yeah, I

589
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,479
Speaker 1: would say abably the same thing. I think, you know,

590
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: up until I would say when it got talented down

591
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: to like five guys, like right before Hometown, come to

592
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: that point, I was like, she's you know, she's actually

593
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: she's got to go through these relationships and is what

594
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: it is. And I think naturally as it gets down

595
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: to the last five and those are the more serious relationships,

596
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 1: and so like it's a little bit more weird watching those,

597
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: but again, like I would say, yeah, coming down that

598
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: that last episode with Greg just naturally obviously, but again

599
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: that's where it comes back to like just trying to

600
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: empathize and understand what she's going through and not being

601
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: like what about me? But what you say, I was

602
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 1: there because I put yourself in those shoes? How do

603
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 1: you handle it? And it's like like I would have

604
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 1: probably said and done a lot of the same things,

605
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: So I can't be mad, and look at where we're

606
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: at now. Everything happens the way they should. I never

607
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: for one second doubted that it was me. I showed

608
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 1: up their thinking it was going to be me and

609
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 1: ended up me, and that doubt has never changed or

610
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 1: there's never been any of that doubt. So um, it's

611
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: been as much as it's been weird at times watching

612
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: that episode, we kind of blown over it, like affected anything.

613
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: Did you both watch any of the episodes together or

614
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 1: was that two straight? Did you have to do it separate?

615
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 1: There was a certain point where we started to watch

616
00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: them together. And I don't know, I mean, I don't

617
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: think it was strange, like we just you can't deny it,

618
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: you know, So there's no difference to watch it similar together.

619
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: You might as well do it together and talk about

620
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 1: it if you need too. So definitely, at a certain

621
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 1: point we started watching it together and talking about it,

622
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 1: and like he said, once it got down to like

623
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 1: the final five, that's when he realized that there were

624
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: other relationships. Because I think I did a really good

625
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 1: job at kind of keeping him one kind of separate,

626
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: you know, in the group date setting, I was very

627
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: like neutral towards everybody, and it was only in the

628
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: one on one interactions that these guys felt like I

629
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 1: was dating just then, you know, and I'm going to

630
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 1: see it kind of for the first time. It was

631
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: a little rough, but you know, like he said, we've

632
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: we've made it through and we're a lot stronger today

633
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 1: than even we were when he proposed to me, did

634
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 1: you guys watch every episode? Was there a time where

635
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: you were just like, I can't watch this and he

636
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 1: turned it off and walked away. I know he didn't

637
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: really care to watch until he was on because like

638
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: was the point, you know, and then even like I

639
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: would tell him like just so you know, like this

640
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: is a one on one with Greg, Uh you want

641
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 1: to skip that, you know, or like, by the way,

642
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 1: this is what's happening at least from my memory, and

643
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 1: so I think he kind of got to choose which

644
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: parts he didn't didn't want to see. And then obviously

645
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,479
Speaker 1: as we prepared for after the final Rows, we had

646
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: to watch you know, whatever episodes we hadn't yet and

647
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: we were separate when that happened, but we were able

648
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 1: to talk about it, you know, before going into filming. Okay, so, Blake,

649
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: you were the one man who made it to the end,

650
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 1: but the only one who met Katie's family. Katie, I

651
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 1: will say, I actually really enjoyed your mom and your

652
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: aunt because they I feel like it was such like

653
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: kind of like a different take. I would say during

654
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: Meet the families, Blake, when you were sitting chatting with

655
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,479
Speaker 1: her mom and her aunt, were you shaking in your

656
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 1: boots a little bit? Or watching it all back? Like

657
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: what was that like sitting there and now watching it

658
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 1: back and you know, knowing their take on everything for

659
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 1: Katie's future? Yeah, you know I was. I wouldn't say

660
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 1: I was war but I was told that, you know,

661
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: Lindsey would probably be a little bit hard on me,

662
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 1: just that was the way that she was. And so

663
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: Katie told me about that before going in. I didn't know.

664
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: I didn't know that to the extent I guess that,

665
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 1: you know, everything I said would be questioned to um. So,

666
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: I mean the thing is what that is? She's valid

667
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: in her questions. They start about the first question. Based

668
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 1: the first question, you could tell if she like threw

669
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: me a little bit of like not not shape, but

670
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 1: like question. Man, I'm like, okay, I can see this

671
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 1: is gonna go now. And first the first question of

672
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: like this this conversation we're going to have. And you know,

673
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: obviously it seemed like a lot of the answers weren't

674
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 1: like correct ones, and you could see I think, you know,

675
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: I'm watching it back. It's funny you see my posture

676
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: change where I started just like going like this because

677
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: I'm just like I can't win here, Like I literally

678
00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 1: just like I can't win. And I'm sorry. I listen.

679
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 1: She's she's being a hard answer, wants the best for Katie,

680
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 1: and so she's asking the necessary questions. And although I

681
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: didn't necessarily give her the answers I think she's looking for.

682
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: I don't. I still do this day, don't know the answer,

683
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 1: so I can't wait to meet her in person and

684
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 1: what I say, and honestly, a lot of it I

685
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 1: think just has to deal with time and actually being

686
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 1: together in the real world, and that's not something you

687
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 1: can force and speed up, like you really just have

688
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 1: to go into it now from this day forward and

689
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: live together and you know, see how you interact around

690
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: others and in your daily setting. That that's what you're

691
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,800
Speaker 1: really going to know, and that's how you're going to

692
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 1: answer her questions is by her seeing you, guys in

693
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,960
Speaker 1: like your relationship actually blossoming too, So don't be stressed.

694
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: She's just very raw and blunt and um, I got

695
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 1: a great taste that. But I feel like, out of

696
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 1: any guy Katie on your season, Blake is probably the

697
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: best one to handle that. Yes, oh one hundred percent.

698
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 1: And it was such like validation that, like, this is

699
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: my guy because not only is he gonna work with me,

700
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: he's gonna work both with my family, because I feel

701
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,719
Speaker 1: like thinking of anyone else in that situation they would

702
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,959
Speaker 1: have been eaten alive, you know. And so for Blake

703
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 1: to be able to kind of like dodge it but

704
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 1: be okay with that like aggressive we'll call it a

705
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:21,800
Speaker 1: sense of humor, you know, for him to still be

706
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 1: okay at the end of it, I was like, okay,

707
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 1: Like he's good, because the thing is, like that is

708
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 1: how my family is in the real world, Like we

709
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 1: would be at a barbecue and they're gonna dissociate and

710
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 1: make fun of each other and just kind of don't

711
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 1: take things too seriously. And so the fact that he survived, yes,

712
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be great. Meeting the family in

713
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: my real life, well hopefully that hopefully that was the

714
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 1: hardest part. And now from here on out they can

715
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 1: just see the two of you together and how happy

716
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 1: you are. I mean, Blake, it did seem like you

717
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 1: charmed over her mother, which is a good first step. Okay,

718
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,839
Speaker 1: So getting into the proposal we saw and Taitia can

719
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 1: rive in here as well because she was obviously they're

720
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 1: helping you pick up the rings towards the end, what

721
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 1: was going through. I mean, we kind of could see

722
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,239
Speaker 1: you on the fence a little bit of like we

723
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: obviously knew you wanted to be with Katie and continue

724
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 1: your love journey if you will. I hate that I

725
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 1: just a love journey, but continue along with Katie. But

726
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 1: it was that one, like the ring, the actual proposal

727
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,760
Speaker 1: getting engaged, that I think had you a little on edge.

728
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: And so sitting there talking with Tasha in that moment,

729
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 1: bring me back to that, like what were you feeling?

730
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: What was being like stirred up inside? And then what

731
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 1: was the moment where you were like, nope, we're off

732
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: and doing this like I'm picking out that ring and

733
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 1: I'm getting down on one knee. Yeah. So yeah, I

734
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: think that's the one thing to make sure that as

735
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: clear as it was ever a question of Katie, which

736
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,839
Speaker 1: is whether or not do I do we engaged now? Right?

737
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: And the first conversation I had with Katie was sitting

738
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: on that bench the first time I met her, and

739
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 1: She's like, are you like ready for an engineent this?

740
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 1: And I said, you know, I could see us getting

741
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 1: engaged at the end like I would get engaged, And

742
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 1: so you know, it came down to a couple of things.

743
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 1: But um, when I was sitting there looking at the

744
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 1: rings is when it becomes very real. It's all just

745
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 1: a thought until that that ring box pops open and

746
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 1: you're looking at You're like, okay, okay, this is this

747
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:21,840
Speaker 1: is happening. This is you know, it's not just the

748
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:25,000
Speaker 1: thought anymore. It's an action. And this action speaks volumes

749
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 1: depending on what you do with it. So, um, I

750
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: just want to make sure I was making the right

751
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 1: decision for both of us and not just like doing

752
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 1: it because oh she wants to get engaged, like am

753
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 1: I ready? Are we actually ready? Like are we ready

754
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 1: for this now? And um, it just came down to

755
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 1: after I picked the ring, I went back to the

756
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,120
Speaker 1: room and I was like getting ready and just thinking

757
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: about it, and I'm like, I came here, I had

758
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 1: the intuition I know what this is. If you know,

759
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 1: I bet on myself coming here, I'm betting on our

760
00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 1: relationship taking off after this and and this be super successful.

761
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: Like it just just kind of hit when when I

762
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 1: was getting ready and I was like, I'm doing this.

763
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,359
Speaker 1: This is what I came here for, this is what

764
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: she wanted, and I was doing deliver. H. I don't

765
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 1: think I've well, I don't know, have you Becca ever

766
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: been with a guy as he's picking out an engagement ring. No,

767
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 1: it is one stressful I have ever experienced, just because

768
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: you can tell it obviously like you were so excited,

769
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: but also at the same time, it's just it's just

770
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 1: a very real moment I think for someone to be like,

771
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 1: holy shit, I'm actually going to propose this is going

772
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: to be my wife. Like there's just so much going through,

773
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:44,800
Speaker 1: you know, a man's mind, and I had never experienced

774
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 1: that before, like to the point where I was just

775
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 1: like it made me honestly think about Zach, like when

776
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 1: he was in that moment, like it's just it's such

777
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: a special moment. And then I was so happy to

778
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 1: be a part of that. But just also, Katie, that

779
00:38:56,200 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: ring is so Katie. I loved it, and he knew

780
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,319
Speaker 1: it like the second he saw it, Like we were

781
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,720
Speaker 1: just talking so funny because we were trying to imagine

782
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 1: your little hand and my hand is way better than

783
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 1: your little hand, you know, and you know, we were

784
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 1: just trying to talk about like the sizing and what

785
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 1: it would look like, and he knows you and he

786
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: just wanted something so special for you. So I just

787
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 1: want you to know in that moment, like it was,

788
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 1: it was tough, but also at the same time, like

789
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 1: you should have seen his eyes like he's so much

790
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 1: with you. I was yeah, I was yeah. And then

791
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:32,439
Speaker 1: that moment so clearly I used it on my face too,

792
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,280
Speaker 1: like I'm really processing a thousand things in that moment,

793
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:40,399
Speaker 1: and I was like, Hi, are you here? And then

794
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,760
Speaker 1: he was making me sweat, like he was like walking

795
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:47,320
Speaker 1: away doing all these things, and I was like like oh.

796
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: And then it fast forwards to Katie. You're obviously standing there.

797
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:52,560
Speaker 1: I don't want to call it an altar, but at

798
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 1: the I didn't even know what to call it, like platform, yeah, platform,

799
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 1: and Tasha and Caitlin erstanding there as Blake's pulling up,

800
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: and I could like feel the nerves with Tasia and

801
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 1: Kaitlin being like, we don't know what's going to happen.

802
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: My stomach just dropped and so I feel like, as

803
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: the viewer who had no idea what was about to

804
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: go down, I was just like, oh my gosh, this

805
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,399
Speaker 1: could go one way or this could go the other.

806
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,760
Speaker 1: And what I was thinking is because Katie, this entire time,

807
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: you've been very vocal about like I see my husband

808
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: in this group. I seen engagement out of this, like

809
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 1: I see all the things you know that the Bachelor

810
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 1: and the Bachelorette is, and you never shied away from that.

811
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: You never were like, no, I don't know if I'm

812
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: not ready for this or maybe I don't want to

813
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 1: get engaged. You were always so vocal about it that

814
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 1: I'm sitting there watching being like, Okay, she hasn't shied

815
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 1: away from this. She's been very direct, very upfront, so like,

816
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,360
Speaker 1: this is going to be such an interesting moment to

817
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: see how Blake handles it. Was there any part of you,

818
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 1: Katie that And I know you said you didn't quite

819
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 1: know if he was going to get down one knee

820
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 1: and it wasn't until that moment where you knew, Okay,

821
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 1: this is actually happening. If Blake would have come that

822
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 1: day and just said, I love you, I want to

823
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: continue this with you, but I'm not ready to give

824
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: you a ring quite yet, would you have better okay

825
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,319
Speaker 1: with that? Or we're like where would you have gone?

826
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: Like in your head? In your heart? Yeah? Overall, I

827
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: was going to be happy to leave with him no

828
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: matter what. There was going to be this. I don't

829
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 1: want to sort of resentment. I don't even know who

830
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,640
Speaker 1: would be tours that you don't. I went through so much,

831
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: of course at that time, to then walk away with

832
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,920
Speaker 1: a boyfriend, just like I could have just freaking been

833
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: on a dating app. At this point, I've been a

834
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 1: lot easier, you know, And so something about like an

835
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 1: engate will obviously an engagement is like a very serious

836
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 1: commitment versus a boyfriend and girlfriend, and so it just

837
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 1: shows the confidence that he has in us, which I appreciate.

838
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:49,760
Speaker 1: You know. He said he's betting on us going forward.

839
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 1: So it's hard to say, you know, I would have

840
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,359
Speaker 1: been happy, but then would have just been this little,

841
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,520
Speaker 1: you know, sting in my heart, I think, and I

842
00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:58,360
Speaker 1: don't know how quickly I would have recovered from it,

843
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 1: just because again I even go through all of that

844
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:02,320
Speaker 1: to walk away with a boyfriend, I could have just

845
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:06,239
Speaker 1: downloaded an app and avoided all of that, you know. Yeah,

846
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:12,800
Speaker 1: but you wouldn't have found Blake then, I guess. So,

847
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 1: all right, you two love birds, there is so much

848
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,440
Speaker 1: to look forward to from here on out, from this

849
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: day forward, do you have all of the world to

850
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 1: experience together? So what are you most looking forward to?

851
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 1: What's next for the two of you? I think just

852
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: living together and being in the real world together. You know,

853
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: I just got a place in San Diego, but it's

854
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: big enough for him and his pets. He's in talks

855
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 1: with Africa ongoing about the projects he's focused on. So

856
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 1: just getting to kind of experience actual life outside of

857
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 1: these little houses that we've been living in. I think

858
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 1: it's going to be the biggest thing for us. Wait,

859
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:53,360
Speaker 1: so does that mean, Blake, are you going to be

860
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 1: potentially moving in to her place in San Diego? What

861
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 1: are you gonna say? Are we gonna have a Jules

862
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: you should here? Yeah? No, I I think you know,

863
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 1: the first trip will probably be going out there for

864
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 1: you know, a pretty extended pure I don't own week

865
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,239
Speaker 1: at least weeks, maybe three weeks or so, and just

866
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,799
Speaker 1: kind of see what that looks like. And then when

867
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,719
Speaker 1: I come home, I gotta start making decisions because I

868
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: do have hats that I can't just leave at my

869
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 1: mom's place. Like I have animals to take care of

870
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 1: and they need to be with me, and but I

871
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 1: also need to be with Katie. So um, you know,

872
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 1: it may mean that I need to, you know, get

873
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 1: my truck and drive across the country with a cat

874
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,359
Speaker 1: and dog in my truck. I don't know what that's like. Yeah,

875
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 1: I'll make sure to document that will be interesting. My

876
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 1: cats like a ship in the car, so like, oh yeah,

877
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:46,399
Speaker 1: but no, I think, you know, I think I think

878
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 1: I'll be spending a fair bit of time in San

879
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 1: Diego at least to start and see. I think we're

880
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 1: gonna make trips to Canada. I think I'll probably be

881
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 1: my home base for the most part. I make trips

882
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,719
Speaker 1: to Canada in the college when when I can. Living

883
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:04,320
Speaker 1: in different parts is really tough, but it could be

884
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,279
Speaker 1: fun too. You guys have to just honestly take it easy, like,

885
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,839
Speaker 1: don't get so riled up with it, because it's really

886
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 1: difficult and you feel like you're kind of living two

887
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 1: wives again, but especially with the cat thing. Maybe Katie

888
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:20,280
Speaker 1: can keep your cat too, and then she'll just exact

889
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 1: maybe you know what I mean. Like, I don't know,

890
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: there's just like ways to make it work. It's difficult. Yeah,

891
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,799
Speaker 1: it's it's all just ideas right now. I think once

892
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:29,960
Speaker 1: we actually get started and seeing what it's like, then

893
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 1: we can make decisions. Right now, it's just all ideas,

894
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 1: like what about this, what about that? If this happens,

895
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: it's all, what IF's right, So let's pull the trigger

896
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,440
Speaker 1: on one thing and the rest will just count. And yeah,

897
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,320
Speaker 1: will Katie be able to travel to Africa with you

898
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 1: when you circling over there? Yeah? So I think it's

899
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 1: going to depend on the soap without getting too much

900
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,839
Speaker 1: into it, there's different projects and organizations that I want

901
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:53,920
Speaker 1: to go and do some work with. And depending on

902
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 1: the types of projects and things, if they are more safe, yeah,

903
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 1: let's say like or like, you know, I'm glamorous, not

904
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 1: so like in the bush doing some crazy things, then

905
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 1: you know she'll come with me. And depending on the

906
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: types of projects where if it's like no community involved

907
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:13,440
Speaker 1: in the community engagement and things like that, where it's

908
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 1: education based and not like on the grounds doing the

909
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:18,840
Speaker 1: dirty work, then you know, it'd be great to have

910
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 1: her come out and see some of that stuff with me.

911
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 1: It'll be pretty eye opening. And I know that she's

912
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:27,719
Speaker 1: been supportive and and all those products I want to

913
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,959
Speaker 1: want to do, which is huge for me because that's

914
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: what I hope to be a big part of that

915
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 1: moving forward. Oh well, just yeah, Tacia said, you guys

916
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:39,239
Speaker 1: will make whatever's best for the two of you work.

917
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,920
Speaker 1: Don't feed into what anyone else says or thinks that

918
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: you should do, because everyone will tell you one thing

919
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:45,879
Speaker 1: and it's not going to work for you, so you'll

920
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:47,920
Speaker 1: figure it out on your own. I have all the

921
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:52,680
Speaker 1: faith that you will. I hate to be this person

922
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:56,759
Speaker 1: because I hated getting asked this question, especially right after

923
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 1: the finale, but I gotta do it because I want

924
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:01,880
Speaker 1: to do the first we want to ask you. But

925
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:07,359
Speaker 1: any wedding plans that have been talked about quite yet

926
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:11,799
Speaker 1: definitely not. I mean we, like you said, we got

927
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 1: to figure out kind of like our living situation and

928
00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 1: how we want to incorporate that into our lives, and

929
00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 1: then you know, once that gets settled, like we just

930
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 1: kind of take it day by day. We know we

931
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 1: want to get married, if we're just not in a

932
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 1: rush to do it right now because right now we're

933
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:29,720
Speaker 1: just dealing with like the border and COVID, I'm moving,

934
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 1: and there's just so much like a ldding like back

935
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 1: and wait, you know, our bigger things to focus on

936
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 1: right now than planning a wedding. Yeah, I get it. Hey,

937
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: Like I said, I hate, I hate to be the

938
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,759
Speaker 1: one to ask that question, but gotta do my job here.

939
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 1: You guys, Okay, we're going to get into a game

940
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:47,800
Speaker 1: because we love our games with everyone, but before we do,

941
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,239
Speaker 1: we ask all of our guests. Katie, I'm sure we've

942
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 1: asked you this several times when we've had you on

943
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,920
Speaker 1: Patrior Happy Hour. But overall, for the both of you,

944
00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 1: what was your rose and what was your thorn of

945
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 1: this journey? I mean, without being too cheesy, my rose

946
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:12,480
Speaker 1: is obviously Blake. Um. The thorn what if she said

947
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: something totally random like not Blake, just rose is the

948
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 1: fact that like I got her right off on a

949
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:25,440
Speaker 1: horse after getting proposed to my thorn if anytime someone

950
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,440
Speaker 1: was knocking on my door, oh I don't like, I

951
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:30,560
Speaker 1: had like PTSD every time I heard a knock, I'm like,

952
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:35,399
Speaker 1: what now you will have that PTSD for months to come.

953
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,160
Speaker 1: I still have room service. I was like, who's knocking

954
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:42,240
Speaker 1: on the door? Blake never knocked on her door. Honestly,

955
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: I know the feeling because Tatia did it to me

956
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 1: to me, um, Katy did it to me all in

957
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:54,480
Speaker 1: the middle of the fucking night too, so um um. Yeah.

958
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:56,839
Speaker 1: The thorn definitely is that. I think the other thing

959
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,480
Speaker 1: to would be coming into the house um to face

960
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 1: the guys all at one time and like to like

961
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:04,319
Speaker 1: come out and say like a speech. It wasn't easy,

962
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,040
Speaker 1: especially when like from face to face you would see

963
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:11,440
Speaker 1: like a glare confusion. Fuck this guy like like like

964
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 1: I was just like it was just a lot to

965
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 1: process and manage the group because I knew that was

966
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:17,600
Speaker 1: going to play into how much of it, you know,

967
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 1: fun time I was going to have it. If I

968
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,040
Speaker 1: couldn't manage the guys, it was going to be a nightmare. Um.

969
00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,120
Speaker 1: So that was the thorns because I don't like this

970
00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:27,560
Speaker 1: and people off. But um yeah, I from that. I

971
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,839
Speaker 1: think the rose is just like coming in with anticipation

972
00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 1: and an intuition of what this could be in it

973
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,200
Speaker 1: just like panting out exactly how you thought it was

974
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 1: going to. Um, you know, I'm a very confident person

975
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 1: and I liked like I have a lot of belief

976
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:42,640
Speaker 1: in things and this and I'm not right all the time.

977
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,759
Speaker 1: This is one thing on the biggest thing. Um it

978
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 1: did it did pant exactly how it should have. Well

979
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 1: I love that answer, all right. Well, like I said,

980
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,600
Speaker 1: we love our games here in Bachelor Happy Hour, and

981
00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,479
Speaker 1: it's clear since we've been watching me this entire season,

982
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,239
Speaker 1: but also just chatting with you right now that you

983
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 1: two seemed very much on the same page, which I

984
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,239
Speaker 1: think is such a good solid foundation to start off

985
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,759
Speaker 1: this relationship with. So we are going to ask you

986
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,840
Speaker 1: a series of superlative questions and you have to answer

987
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 1: whether you think it's yourself or your partner. So basically,

988
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,680
Speaker 1: we'll give you the question and then on the count

989
00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,200
Speaker 1: of three, we're going to have both of you call

990
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:26,760

00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,360

1012

Speaker 1: I swear I get one per week, one every other week.

1018
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:53,960
Speaker 1: But parking tickets are very different than speeding tickets. Yes,

1019
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:58,120
Speaker 1: that's true, but you know I it's like eighty parking tickets.

1114
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:14,600
Speaker 1: public after basically watching everything unfold on her season. I'm

1115
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:16,600
Speaker 1: not gonna lie. I feel like they're like my little children,

1116
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 1: Like I'm so's they clearly compliment each other well, and

1119
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 1: actually experience life now. It is a little tough because

1120
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,680
Speaker 1: it's the pandemic still. I feel like they're they're trying

1121
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:36,400
Speaker 1: to figure things out like that, but I don't know,

1122
00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:38,160
Speaker 1: just them being able to go get coffee together. I

1123
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:40,960
Speaker 1: think it's going to be like an amazing experience for them.

1124
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:43,360
Speaker 1: I know that was for me, so little simple things.

1125
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 1: I'm so proud. Like you said, I feel like they

1126
00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:49,160
Speaker 1: were meant to be. Like these two makes sense. They

1127
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:51,880
Speaker 1: have ground each other so well, they compliment each each

1128
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:54,560
Speaker 1: other so well, they support each other. So this is

1129
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:58,920
Speaker 1: the time where it really like solidifies the relationship. And

1130
00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:02,040

1131
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:03,880
Speaker 1: that she did to get to this point. So I

1132
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:06,920
Speaker 1: can now wait to see what their next steps are,

1133
00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:10,320
