I 19 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: was just like, you know what, I got my own beach. 20 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: You're like, why do any Bachelor in Paradise when I 21 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: have my own Jersey Shore Paradise where like every girl, 22 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: every Jersey girl is after me there, No, not at all. Oh, 23 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: come on, I just have unlimited tequila at home. So 24 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: I imagine your life at the Jersey Shore where you 25 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:41,279 Speaker 1: run a Was it basketball? I mean, only the best 26 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: carnival arcade game in the entire world is basketball. Yes, 27 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: it's the one that I get most competitive over, and 28 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: it happens to be probably the only one I could 29 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: like even attempt at. I go, oh, man, I have 30 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of tangents I can go on right now. 31 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: But we're gonna go back to basketball at the beach 32 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: because you have to tell us of the tricks of 33 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: the trade there. But but but even though you were 34 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: in First Sandy, are we going to see you on Paradise? So? 35 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: Um so yeah, promo just came out. I was in 36 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: the promo I will be on the sand. Yes, Okay, Well, 37 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: I think the reason, my theory is the reason you 38 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: weren't there first Sand was because you're the kind of 39 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: guy that would shake things up massively, and it would 40 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: it would have been a waste of drama if you 41 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: were there to start a waste of drama. Yeah, because 42 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: I think they were just like you know, and he 43 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: needs a little time to heal a little bit more time. 44 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: They were just like, then we'll set them down there. 45 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: But I feel like if you semi in later it 46 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: calls it's even more drama. Right, That's what I'm saying. 47 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: It would have been a waste of drama to have 48 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: you early on, because you're way more dramatic as a 49 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: late entrance, because then you can win solid ish relationships. 50 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: Not that I want to do that at all, the 51 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: last thing I want to do. But but yeah, it's uh, 52 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I guess yeah, I guess they were 53 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: just like, you know what, we're gonna wait. Um, we're 54 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: gonna wait for everything to get fun, get great going 55 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: on the beach, and then just mess with these people 56 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: and then we'll throw some guys down there. So okay, 57 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: but we're so excited that you're actually coming. Now. Who 58 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 1: did you tell the producers you wanted to see down there? 59 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: So for me, I really didn't. I don't know. I 60 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: didn't really watch any seasons. Give me the goods. You 61 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: had to have looked on people's instagrams. I guess if 62 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: I looked at like, there's like a few people they 63 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: asked you there, like, is anybody from like prior seasons, 64 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: but I didn't really know anybody just looking at instagrams. 65 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: You look at everybody, Yes, everybody at the entire test. 66 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: I mean they're all gorgeous obviously, sure, but who was 67 00:03:55,360 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: your type?

Um, trying to think who else? I 71 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: think those are like the main three. I would say, Okay, well, 72 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: I'm excited to see if anything happens with Victoria or um, Britney, 73 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: because they will, it seems, I would say, will be 74 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: down there when you arrive, hopefully. I'm so excited. Okay, Well, um, 75 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: is there anything you can do for us to tease 76 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: whatever Jesse may be alluding to when he talks about 77 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: like the most dramatic thing to ever happen in Paradise history.

Um, 81 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: and then they send a new group of girls in 82 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 1: and there's a good chance that there's a few guys 83 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: that come in at that hotel, but you gotta remember 84 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: that all these girls are already investing guys, so it's 85 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: gonna be tough.

Yeah. I mean after meeting him and everything, 105 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: I was just like I would absolutely aspire to be 106 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: someone like this because he's just such a nice, good hearted, 107 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: genuine guy and and the end, he's just so easy 108 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 1: to talk to and like literally like a dad figure. 109 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: We'll talk to you about anything, will help you through anything. 110 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: So what was your least favorite part of being in 111 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: Paradise least, David part Um, I would say seeing people cry. 112 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: I just hate it. I love being happy, so I 113 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: want to see everybody be happy. But seeing like the 114 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: downside of people going through stuff, it's it's heartbreaking. So well, 115 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: you're saying that Michael Lay is an idol of yours. 116 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: Makes me sad that you or Michaelay aren't the Bachelor 117 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: because I find that you had a little bit more 118 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: gusto both of you than Zach. But you know Zach 119 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: better than I do. What's your take on Zack as 120 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: a bachelor. I think Zack's going to be a great bachelor. 121 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: I think I just all around like he's yeah, and 122 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: he's like the same ages me six, So he's a 123 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: younger guy, but he knows what he ultimately wants. And 124 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: I think that he's very sweet, very genuine. It's a 125 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: quirky guy. Um, he's just he's all around just funny. 126 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: So and he's got an awesome uncle, So I think 127 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: I think that he's going to do a great job. 128 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: Was he picked because of his uncle who's very a 129 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: missle for being like a side kick on Seinfeld? I 130 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: can't agree in your did not no, but maybe I 131 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: don't know. No, he was definitely picked because he's just 132 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: he's act. He's awesome. He's going to narrate his whole journey, 133 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: isn't he I would love Yeah, I would literally love that. 134 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: I don't know how much he needs to get paid 135 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: to do that, but let's work it up. Okay. So 136 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: I want to go back to you for a second. 137 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: You and in the Jersey Shore and Rachel. So you 138 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: and Rachel really adorable together, but she just felt it 139 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 1: wasn't right enough so that she like cut off your 140 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 1: hometown date short, didn't get you didn't get to introduce 141 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: her to your family. Do you feel like, in hindsight 142 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: that was a good decision or are you the kind 143 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: of guy that was like I would still love to 144 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: have introduced the family to a girl that I thought 145 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 1: was special, even if she wasn't like my forever. Now, 146 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: I think that it was definitely the right decision because 147 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: ultimately I know how important that is, like meeting family 148 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 1: and even in real life like dating, when you get 149 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 1: an opportunity to meet somebody's um parent figures, I mean 150 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: that's that's a huge step, Like you're not just opening 151 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: up your relationship to one person, but it's to their 152 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: entire family. Now, So if she knew that, I wasn't 153 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: it at the time, being um, why get more invested? 154 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: Why have me be more invested when ultimately you know 155 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get hurt. So I think what she did 156 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: was I I appreciate it if anything, because it didn't 157 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: get even deeper and your heart of hearts, did you 158 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 1: think you're going to make it through that hometown week 159 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: or did you think your time was coming to an end? 160 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: I really did, only because I got the group date 161 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: rods and at that time it was kind of just 162 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: like the date during the day, Tina was the chiefe king. 163 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: They kissed in front of all of us, and just 164 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: like this is the worst, Like I have to watch 165 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: this happen in front of me, and I'm just like, 166 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: I'm like thinking to more stuffing, like okay, like I 167 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: know where my relationship. The relationship is with um is 168 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: that with her? But now you're liking to yourself. Maybe 169 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: it's stronger with other people, and you know, it's just 170 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: something that's part of the process, that's what it is. 171 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: But when I got that group date Rose and she 172 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: said I can't wait to meet your family, I was 173 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: just like, okay, like this is awesome. Yeah, in the 174 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: same way as me. So I was super excited and 175 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: like coming home and everything. I was just like, all right, 176 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: I have something good and I could show her my hometown, 177 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: I get to know her even more and you know, 178 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: just have a great day with her. And I thought 179 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: it was going great, But it's not. Do you know 180 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: what order your hometown was, because sometimes it's not air 181 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: in the same order. I think mine was second. Huh, 182 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: who do you think was first? I'm pretty sure it 183 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: was even So do you think that she had such 184 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: a great time at Aven's hometown that like it was 185 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: directly compared? I would, Um, maybe I think that, you know, 186 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: because I was second. Obviously you have a connection first 187 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: like the first one, and we all saw her connection 188 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: with Avan, so obviously she had a great time, and 189 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: then you're thinking to yourself, Okay, I'm at this point 190 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: with this guy. Am I here with with me? And 191 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: she wasn't. So definitely I think that had something to 192 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: do with it. Lots of people have been giving Rachel 193 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,839 Speaker 1: flack for the way that she reacted when Aven was 194 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: pretty much saying that he wasn't ready for proposed right 195 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: there on the show. What was your take on that. 196 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: I think that even I love Evan, he's my boy. Um, 197 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: I think that the way that he went about it. Um. 198 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: I think that he was very levelheaded and he was 199 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: just being honest, and you know, he's at that point 200 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: in his life, is what he kept saying. I'm at 201 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: that point in my life where I'm not scared to 202 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: get engaged with somebody or anything like that. But I 203 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: think realistically we see this through after this. But you 204 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: got to think of it like the pressure just on 205 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: the show, like being a lead, when ultimately it comes 206 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: down to getting engaged at the end. I mean, that's 207 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,599 Speaker 1: why you go on the show. You make these amazing connections, 208 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: and ultimately most of the time you get engaged. So 209 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: I think having that pressure was on Rachel the entire time, 210 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: and you know that's she just kept thinking to herself, 211 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: probably I'm supposed to be here to get engaged. If 212 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: you're not here for that, why are you here? Um? 213 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: So I heard it out from both sides. I don't 214 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: think either of them were in the wrong. I think 215 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: they were Ultimately Rachel was pressured and even was just 216 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: getting level headed. So respect respect. Um. Okay, So just 217 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: to talk about your hometown for one, because I have genuine, 218 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: genuine curiosity. What is it about the hoop at the 219 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:51,079 Speaker 1: basketball game on the shore that makes us all the 220 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: worst basketball players in the world. What do you guys 221 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: do to that rim? I don't do anything to the end, Oh, 222 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 1: but the manufactur does either him as is, and it 223 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: just so happens. The rim is a little bit more 224 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: of like an oval rather than a perfect circle, because 225 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: if it was a perfect circle, I would not be 226 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: in business. Because Okay, so, if like Lebron James went 227 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 1: and played with that hoop, he still would be pretty 228 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: bad at it. Now I think Lebron would do pretty well. 229 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: We've had some like college like basketball players come up 230 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: and shoot and they nake it, but you have to 231 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: have like the perfect shop for it. I will say that. 232 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: And then sometimes some people get lucky. I've had people 233 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: go up just one hand and just throw it up 234 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: and it gives in. It's crazy how many people get 235 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: a hoop in the basket every day? Like how many? Yeah? 236 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: How many shots do we get? I would say anywhere 237 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: between throughout an entire day, like on average, Like really, 238 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: that's pretty good. That's a good amount, not bad. All right, 239 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: Well then I want I want to talk more to 240 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: Tyler about his summer romances at the Jersey Shore and 241 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,599 Speaker 1: some other bachelor stuff. But for us, we have to 242 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: take a quick break. All right, Tyler, this is how 243 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: I imagine like your summer over the past decade for 244 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: yourself at the Jersey Shore. I feel like you are 245 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: basically a country song and you take girls on roller 246 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: coasters and the ferris wheel, and like you eat cotton 247 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: candy and cameral apples and it's like the cutest thing ever. 248 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: So tell us about some stories of romance at the 249 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: shore that are like a country song. Yeah, Like what 250 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: do you do? Like, what are your moves? My moved 251 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: so back in a day, my move was I had 252 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: had two jobs at the time. I used to go 253 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: down to the beach. I'd push around an ice cream 254 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: court and I'd sell ice cream. Oh my god, you 255 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: were probably selling so many ice cream cones to girls 256 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: that wouldn't normally not buy one. Well, I think they 257 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: ultimately wanted the ice cream, but they would. They would 258 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: come up and till there's so much fun. I go 259 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: down there, just get a tan, pushing around an ice 260 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: cream cards on ice cream, making good money. And then 261 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: right after that, I literally would run off the beach 262 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: right up to the boardwalk and start working on the 263 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: boardwalk with the basketball games. And you would meet so 264 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: many people through that, and I love talking with people socializing. 265 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: Um And ultimately the boardwalk there's a lot of women 266 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 1: on the boardwalk, so they approach it to talk to you. 267 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: This Matt, I love when it comes to dates and 268 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 1: stuff like that. Um. I wouldn't do the boardwalk more 269 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: than once. I was more of like a mini golf 270 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: type of guy. Um, or dinner on the water or 271 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: something like that. Fawn. Um, Yeah, that was kind of 272 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: like like me. But the boardwalk, it's it's a one 273 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: of dumb thing because you overdo it. At that point, 274 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: water park.

So when my husband and 305 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: I were like starting to try to have a baby, 306 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: and I was all very open about it on Instagram. UM, 307 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 1: the one of the O B G I M practices 308 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: that was like part of my dad's like system because 309 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 1: my dad's a doctor in Northern Virginia. UM, one of 310 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: the midwives from one of those practices, she reached out 311 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: to me on Instagram. She was like, hey, you should 312 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: totally come to our practice.

I ended up going with that practice, 315 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: not ever getting the message, but because my dad recommended. 316 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: And then lo and behold, that girl who deemed me 317 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: was the woman who delivered my child, like literally the 318 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: first one to have hands.

So like I'm 323 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 1: lying in the hospital bed follow Becca and then I 324 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: see the message from a year and a half prior, 325 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 1: or maybe it's like a year to the day, which 326 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 1: she was like, Hey, I'd love to, like, you know, 327 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 1: you to come to our practice, and was like, oh 328 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 1: my god, you just delivered our baby and I didn't 329 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 1: even see this. Yeah, it's like almost just as crazy. 330 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: That's nuts. Yeah. All right, um, let's talk about this 331 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,680 Speaker 1: moment meant that you had down and I think Florida 332 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: at a club with these bachelor guys, a whole bunch 333 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: of your bachelor guy friends. Okay, so somebody held up 334 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: like a light sign, you know, like one of those 335 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 1: bottle service signs that said like f tino, Uh huh, 336 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: who was holding that? You're all associated with it? I 337 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: definitely was not associated with it. I literally turned, I'm 338 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: looking at the guys I'm like, who. I'm like, you 339 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: guys are idiots? Why are you doing this? Just because 340 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: like I didn't meet personally. I don't have an issue 341 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 1: with Tina whatsoever, Tino on the show and everything, but 342 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: you have one of the I guess bottle service girls 343 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: were like holding it up, like carrying it around, and 344 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: I turned and I was just looking at the gas. 345 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, what are we doing? Why? Yeah, why, It's 346 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: so dumb. So do you think that one of the 347 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: guys requested it as a joke or that like the 348 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 1: bottle service girls were like this would be funny, you 349 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: know what. At the time, at first, I thought to myself, 350 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: I was just like, you know what, it had to 351 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: be like one of like the people that got eliminated early, 352 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: because I wanted your career that got eliminated early in 353 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: the time. I mean we kind of like had heard 354 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: and knew kind of like what had happened transpired um recently, 355 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: so you know, we knew, but nobody else knew. So 356 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: it had to be one of the guys. I don't 357 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: know who it was. I don't know whose idea it was, 358 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: but yeah, I was definitely not involved with that whatsoever. 359 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: But of course it's my case in front of my association. Yeah. 360 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: I was just like, of course. My friend texted me 361 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: the next day and they were just like, Tyler, this 362 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: is bad and I was just like, I wasn't even involved. Yeah, yeah, 363 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 1: that sucks. It wasn't a good luck. But also like 364 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: none of us out there thought that sweet Tyler would 365 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: be the one to do you. Absolutely not no, okay, um, 366 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: I like to play a game of rapid fire to 367 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: end interviews, But first, is there anything that you'd like 368 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: to share with their audience that like has been weighing 369 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: on your chest since you've been off the show, and 370 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: before you start Paradise, Like, is there any warning going 371 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 1: to paradise or anything you want to clear up from 372 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: the Bachelor atte I would say this, um, because so 373 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: many people going Tyler read the room when I got dumped. Now, 374 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 1: when I got dumped, okay, the day was growing great. Everything. 375 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: We went into separate interviews. After the interviews, we met 376 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: together and I saw her and she looked tear eyed, 377 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 1: and I was just like, Rachel, was everything okay? All right? 378 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: And she told me, yes, I'm just cold, So it's 379 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: just like okay. So I gave her a hug and 380 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: I'm warming her up. And when I sat down with her, 381 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: I like, I knew our day went well. So when 382 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: I laid it all on her, I did not know 383 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 1: whatsoever that she was going to break up to her 384 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: there was something wrong. I just thought she was cold. 385 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: Oh that's sweet. How long between being cold? In the conversation, 386 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: I would say she started off the conversations that it 387 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: was a good day, she got my friends and everything. 388 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: It had to be at the point where I don't 389 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 1: even know. She started crying when I said that I 390 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: loved her, So that's I think. I was just like, 391 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: this is either go bad or just going really good. 392 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 1: And of course it was a bad one. Do you 393 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 1: feel like you actually loved her? Or was it sort 394 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: of lusty at that point? In hindsight, I think in hindsight, 395 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: looking at it, it's so different because when you're on 396 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 1: the show, you're in this bubble and it's so easy 397 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: to fall for somebody hard when you're in this bubble 398 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: and it's all you think about so the time being, Yeah, 399 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: in that world, I was definitely like all in, like 400 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: falling in love with her. But looking in hindsight, and 401 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: I'm like I'm gonna be all right, you know. Okay, 402 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: I just got lost in this world for two months. 403 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 1: But but yeah, and then you just got thrown right 404 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: back into it. There was a very short amount of time, 405 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: very very short amount of time between filming Bachelor in 406 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: Paradise this season. Did that contribute to you coming in 407 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: late for real? For real? Um? A little bit? I 408 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 1: mean I when I first got the call, it's just 409 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: like add or I really want to do this again, 410 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 1: like really put myself through this because it's mentally draining, 411 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: it really is. Um. So I was just like, I'll 412 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 1: think about it and then excided. I was just like, 413 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 1: you know what, like go down there and have fun, 414 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: get to meet some people that you know, I've had 415 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: the same experience as you, and ultimately like, yeah, there's 416 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: a chance you might meet somebody. So I was just like, Okay, 417 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 1: I think that, you know, I really put myself out 418 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: there before. Why not try one more time? Okay. So, 419 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: was there like a matter of like two or three 420 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: weeks between you coming home and then you're going to 421 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: fill Paradise? Had to be at least like a month Okay, Okay, 422 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 1: that's not super different because you were like top four 423 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: and normally UP four does get about four weeks of 424 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: a downtime. Does that make it harder or easier to 425 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: jump back in? I would say harder, Well, because you're 426 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: still thinking of Rachel. No, I would say you kind 427 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: of know how it works, like how the whole journey 428 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 1: like works. You just saw it and everything, and um 429 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 1: like I went in just so gullible, kind of just 430 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 1: like I don't know how like how this entire process 431 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: goes so and then kind of like when I was 432 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,919 Speaker 1: told how Paradise works and operates, I was told as 433 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:41,880 Speaker 1: completely different, which it is completely different, which is awesome completely, 434 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: but at first, yeah, it was definitely's definitely hard because 435 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: I was just like, I don't want to go through 436 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 1: the same thing I just went through on the Bachelrette. Yeah, 437 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: I totally understand that. All right, well let's play some 438 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: rapid Fire, but first we're gonna take a quick break 439 00:24:54,440 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: right now.

Originally there's only a 452 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: few that knew because it's middle school, so they don't 453 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: really watch and that. And next thing you know, they're like, 454 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 1: my parents told me that you were on a TV show? 455 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,479 Speaker 1: Is that true? And I'm like, yeah, I was. And 456 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: then at one point, I remember some girl came up 457 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: to me and she was like she's giving a little 458 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: bit of attitude and I was just like, all right, 459 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 1: you can leave and go to the office.

It was called Home Team, and 469 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: Taylor Lautner's in it, and I guess because of my 470 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: eyes like a little bit, I got like squinting your eyes. 471 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 1: I was told it look like Taylor at her a 472 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: little bit, and I was just like, I appreciate that.
