I have a first. 4 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 2: I've never interviewed somebody from Dancing with the Stars. Now, 5 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 2: I've interviewed people that have been on Dance with the Stars, 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,119 Speaker 2: but I don't think of I cannot remember. I was 7 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 2: trying to think about this anytime I've ever interviewed a 8 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 2: current contestant and their coach, their partner during the season. 9 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:30,639 Speaker 2: So this is really exciting for me. 10 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,880 Speaker 3: Yay, thanks for having us now. 11 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 2: We just started talking and I asked, why aren't the 12 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 2: two of you together? In my mind, you're together all 13 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 2: the time, like you never not are not together, but 14 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,200 Speaker 2: you're not together right now. You're in two separate places. 15 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 2: How common is this? Right now? 16 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 3: I mean, we're still in the beginning phase of the show, 17 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 3: so we have like a bit more time, although that's 18 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 3: saying a lot because we don't have a lot of 19 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 3: time where we're not together. But yeah, as we were 20 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 3: telling you, we finished rehearsal. It was a very great 21 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 3: but sweaty, productive rehearsal. I was not looking cute, so 22 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 3: I needed to go home and get a little bit cute. 23 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 3: So it's my fault. 24 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 4: You're looking just fine. I also had to throw on 25 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 4: a hat because I literally just got out of the shower. 26 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 4: So yeah, it was just one of those days that 27 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 4: we had a lot going on. We were busy, and yeah, 28 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 4: usually we are together a lot. 29 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 2: Now this is a big deal for me because the 30 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 2: two of you, I would argue would be the fan 31 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 2: favorites right now, the front runners. You're crushing it, and 32 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 2: so I'm very excited to be talking to two of you. 33 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 2: I do have some questions based on my own curiosity 34 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 2: about the process of Dancing with the Stars. I was 35 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 2: never on Dancing with the Stars, and so I've only 36 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 2: watched as a fan for the last you know how 37 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 2: many years it's been on television. A couple questions. I'm 38 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: going to rapid fire either of you can answer it. 39 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 2: Any injuries, any current. 40 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 3: Injuries, I'm not severe. We're doing a move this week. 41 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 3: I'm not going to say what it is, but we're 42 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 3: doing to move this week, and. 43 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 4: Our bodies are sore. 44 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 3: Our bodies are really sore. My arm hurt. 45 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 4: This is a very fast paced week. So this is 46 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 4: the first time that the body, I think is starting 47 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 4: to kick in a little bit right now. 48 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've have friends who've been on the show, Joey, 49 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 2: this one's for you. They have gotten They sit in 50 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 2: the best shape of their life being on Dance with 51 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 2: the Stars. Can you already? I mean, I don't know 52 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 2: how many weeks you've actually been in the experience. I mean, 53 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: obviously we've only seen a few weeks of YouTube dancing 54 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: on television, but I'm sure there was some prep time 55 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 2: before that. Are you feeling that way right now? 56 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 4: Oh, one hundred percent, it's awesome. I was so bad 57 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 4: after getting off the Bachelor, Like you know, going into that, 58 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 4: you train to get into shape, and then when you 59 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 4: get into the show you kind of fall out of 60 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 4: it a lot, and then life gets crazy. So I 61 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 4: kind of got out of routine. So I came in 62 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 4: probably not in the best shape that I could be, 63 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 4: But the first two weeks kicked my butt got right 64 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 4: back into it, and yeah, we're like two to three 65 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 4: weeks in now, and I feel good already. The body 66 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 4: definitely made a difference for sure. 67 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 3: I mean, Ben, why do you think his shirt's been 68 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 3: open the first two weeks? 69 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's playing good. Is that a joy request or 70 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 2: is that a strategy? 71 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 4: It was on the first night, it was definitely an 72 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 4: idea from the choreography that Jenna had. And then on 73 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 4: this last dance that we had, it was no joke, 74 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 4: a last minute decision. I did the whole dress rehearsal 75 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 4: with the tank under. We wanted like an open shirt 76 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 4: because we thought it looked beautiful in the dance, and 77 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 4: one of the producers came over to me, like right 78 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 4: before showtime, said so, what do you think about not 79 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 4: wearing a shirt for this dance? And we said, yes, 80 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 4: that just just happened. It was very quick when it happened. 81 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 2: See, that would be That's something nobody's ever asked of me. 82 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 2: So you have to be doing something right. Nobody's ever said, hey, Ben, 83 00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 2: how do you take off your shirt for this? 84 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? 85 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 2: From what I remember from a buddy who did it, 86 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 2: there was a lot of blisters. So as a professional dancer, Jenna, 87 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 2: how do you like handle that? 88 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 3: Like? 89 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 2: How do you Because I know Joey's feet are probably 90 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 2: just torn up right now because he's not used to it. 91 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 2: This is something you do all the time. How are 92 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: your feet prepared for this? 93 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 3: You know what? From a young age, the quote beauty 94 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 3: is pain has just been ingrained in me, Like my 95 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 3: feet go through the ringer in ballroom shoes, they suffocate them, 96 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 3: they squeeze them. I have I have at least like 97 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 3: four blisters on my toes right now. It's just part 98 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 3: of the process, and honestly, it doesn't really even phaze 99 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 3: me anymore. I just know that it like comes with 100 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: the territory. So but it is a lot I forget 101 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 3: because like even Joey's shoes, they're different shoes, but I 102 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 3: know that they're really tight and they're uncomfortable at first 103 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 3: and you have to break them in. So it's a 104 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 3: wild process. Like I forget that. Oh yeah, this is 105 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 3: just part of the gig. But it's a lot to 106 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 3: adjust to. 107 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 4: We as guys do not get to complain when you 108 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 4: think of dancing with the stars. I am at all 109 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 4: every single time how they have to do the same heels, 110 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 4: Like I don't think people understand we are doing the 111 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 4: same moves, We're doing everything, and they are doing it 112 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 4: in heels. And yeah, I definitely little blisters here and there. 113 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 4: Feet are not my strongest suit. I've got messed up 114 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 4: beat as it is, so I'm sure they're getting beat up. 115 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 4: But the fact that she does is in heels and 116 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 4: has to like just rebound from it is unbelievable to me. 117 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 3: Thanks Joey, He's such a sweet man. 118 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 2: I know, he's so good at this. I do need 119 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 2: to name drop for a second before we dive into 120 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 2: what you guys are doing currently. I was on tour 121 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 2: once with somebody on Dance with the Stars. 122 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 3: Oh my god, wait I know this. 123 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:52,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, Ezra Sosa and I traveled the US up until 124 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: COVID shut us down. Ezra is like eighteen years old, 125 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 2: living in the same bus as me. An absolute joy 126 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 2: to be around, one of my favorite people and is amazing. Yeah, 127 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 2: there's a reason why people are like really like him 128 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 2: and are gravitating towards him because his energy and just 129 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 2: his personality is so big. But his dream, which is cool. 130 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 2: I texted him, but I haven't been able to tell him. 131 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 2: But I'm going to tell you guys that, like when 132 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 2: he was eighteen years old, his dream was to be 133 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 2: on Dancing with the Stars. You don't get to see 134 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 2: a lot of people like actually accomplish these like huge 135 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 2: dreams they have. He did it. I think It's pretty cool. 136 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 3: Amazing, Yeah, fun fact. Actually, Ezra and I grew up together, 137 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 3: so he went to the same studio I did growing up. 138 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 3: So I've known him since he was a baby. And 139 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 3: this kid has the most heart out of anybody I know, 140 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 3: and I've known it's been his dream to be on 141 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 3: Dancing with the Stars, and so I think for him 142 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 3: to see me join, and then for me to see 143 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 3: him join, is the biggest gift. I just I'm so 144 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 3: proud of him. He deserves it. 145 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: All he does, he does, He's a trooper. He dealt 146 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 2: with a lot of wildness at eighteen years old on 147 00:06:59,279 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 2: the tour of US. 148 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 3: I can imagine, Jinna. 149 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 2: I'll start out with you here. We're going to dive 150 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 2: into some of the fan questions and some of our 151 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: questions here. When you heard that Joey was your partner, 152 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 2: I don't know if you can disclose kind of how 153 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 2: that's brought up and how you're told that as a professional, 154 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 2: But when you're told Joey is your partner, I want 155 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 2: to hear your honest, real first thoughts. 156 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll give it to you. Joey knows this. I've 157 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 3: been honest with him. But I think people think that 158 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 3: we know who we're going to have for a little bit. 159 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 3: That's not the case. They really like to make it 160 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 3: a secret so it's an authentic reaction. But I had 161 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 3: a feeling because I had heard his name in the mix, 162 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 3: and so I was a little sad because I've been promised, 163 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 3: not promised, but like I've never had a football player 164 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 3: through my time on the show, I've never had a 165 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 3: football player, and so I kind of heard Danny was 166 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 3: going to be involved, and I was like, this is 167 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 3: my year. I'm going to get the NFL guy. And 168 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 3: then when Joey walked in, I obviously knew who he was, 169 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 3: but I didn't watch his season of the Bachelor, but 170 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 3: my sister is a mega fan, and I just remember 171 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 3: when his season was going, she was telling me about, 172 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 3: like Joey, he's just like the nicest guy. It's been 173 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 3: the best season. No offense, Ben, it's been the best 174 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 3: season of the Bachelor. Everybody loves him, and I was like, okay, okay, 175 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 3: let me see for myself, and it's all of that 176 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 3: is true. He is one of the most genuine humans 177 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 3: I've ever met. I think we kind of just connected 178 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 3: really easily and quickly, and we have so much fun. 179 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 3: It's seriously, I mean Obviously there's stressful moments. Joey, I'm 180 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 3: not always the kindest, but it's just such a pleasure 181 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 3: to work with him. He's so talented. He's one of 182 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 3: those annoying people that's freakishly good at everything. It's like 183 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 3: you just want to punch them because he can. I'm like, 184 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 3: can you try this? He's like sure and does it 185 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 3: in one try, and I'm like, how did that happen? 186 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 3: So he's just really talented but humble kind treats other 187 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 3: people really well, which is a big like character attribute 188 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: that I love, you know. So I just it's been 189 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 3: so awesome being his partner. And obviously, you know, I've 190 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 3: been with a bachelor guy before, I was with Joe Mobley, 191 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 3: so I knew that, like the fan base was going 192 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 3: to be epic, and I was like, okay, love this 193 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 3: for us, but I think ultimately, you're really at the 194 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 3: disposal of your partner. So if they're a good human, 195 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 3: it makes this whole process even better. 196 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 4: There you go, that was very kind. That was very nice. 197 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 4: But don't forget the beginning that she said that she 198 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 4: was disappointed. 199 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 3: So I didn't say I was disappointed. You know, that's 200 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 3: not true. 201 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 2: I love that. I just have this image of Jennes 202 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 2: seeing the name pop up and say, gosh. 203 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 4: Dang it, another loser. 204 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 2: Jenna, one more question for you before we start popping 205 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 2: it back and forth. There has to be an art 206 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 2: form to the chemistry that you two have built and 207 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 2: how you build chemistry with your partners. I'm assuming if 208 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 2: I was if I was told Hey, you're going to 209 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 2: be on Dance with the Stars, there'd be a lot 210 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 2: of nerves about a lot of different things, including meeting 211 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 2: my partner. And so for you, Jenna, with any of 212 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 2: your partners, kind of what is your mindset as the 213 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 2: leader here to build that chemistry and to make it 214 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 2: a space that is fun from the very beginning. 215 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that connection, that chemistry is one of the most 216 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 3: important parts for me being a pro on the show 217 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 3: and having a partner be successful. I think obviously ballroom 218 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 3: dancing is a team sport, so there needs to be 219 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 3: that trust going into each week and being like can 220 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 3: you do this? Will you do this? I'm going to 221 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 3: be young and I'm going to be pushing you like 222 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 3: do you trust me in this scary, intimidating process. But 223 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 3: then also there has to be like genuine admiration for 224 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 3: each other because it is a very vulnerable process, you know. 225 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 3: So for me, that's always one of the biggest things 226 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 3: that I try to establish very soon with my partners 227 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 3: is that good partner chemistry. You just need it. And 228 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 3: the audience can feel when people get along and look 229 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 3: like they're friends when they don't. I think it's really obvious. 230 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 3: So that's that's one of the first things I do. 231 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 3: And I'm an open book. I think anyone that meets 232 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 3: me like you can tell who I am pretty pretty soon. 233 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 3: So I just try to be as open and welcome 234 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 3: me and honest as possible about what this process is 235 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 3: going to be, because there are highs, there are lows, 236 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 3: But I hope that I'm my partner's safe space in 237 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 3: the process. 238 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 2: Juey, for you, obviously, I don't want to put words 239 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 2: in your mouth that that feeling of exciting the invite 240 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 2: to dance with the stars and then finding out who 241 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: your partner is and then showing up to the studio 242 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 2: in the first day walk us through kind of your 243 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: emotions throughout that whole process. 244 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I was nervous, So I really was, 245 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 4: because I know how important it is to be able to. 246 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 4: I don't know, to really trust your partners, she said, 247 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 4: And if you don't feel like you're going to, then 248 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,599 Speaker 4: it's not going to be as enjoyable as a process. 249 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,559 Speaker 4: And I heard from my sister and some friends Jenna's 250 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 4: name came up a lot there, said like, I hope 251 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 4: you get Jenna. I hope you get Jenna. So when 252 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 4: I found out it was her, I was generally so excited, 253 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 4: but I had no idea how we were going to 254 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,679 Speaker 4: sink and be able to get into it because I 255 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 4: was really nervous going into that first day. I was like, 256 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 4: I think I have rhythm, but I don't even know 257 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 4: if I can dance. I want to be able to 258 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 4: really commit to this and be in it, but I 259 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 4: know I have to be somewhat good to be as 260 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 4: into it as I want to. So a thousand thoughts 261 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 4: are going through my head. And what I give Jenna 262 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 4: so much credit for is she made it feel so 263 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 4: comfortable right from the beginning. It was something about how 264 00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 4: she was able to joke with me, something about how 265 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 4: we just kind of I think had this friendship right away, 266 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 4: felt like we kind of already knew each other. That 267 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 4: that idea of worrying about how I looked kind of 268 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 4: went out the door right away, and that was really 269 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 4: big for me. It let me kind of hit the 270 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 4: ground running right when we started practice. Jenna knows this. 271 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 4: We had like the craziest first day. We literally did 272 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 4: our first rehearsal the same day we did the entire 273 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 4: promo shoot, the same day that we did all this 274 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 4: other extra stuff. We spent at least eight hours together 275 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 4: that day, so it was kind of a right away 276 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 4: and she looked at me like, it's not usually going 277 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 4: to be like this, but it was perfect. I wouldn't 278 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 4: have changed the thing because I think it let us 279 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 4: kind of get comfortable and trust each other right away. 280 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 4: So the rest was easy, but was definitely nervous and 281 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 4: was definitely grateful that Jenna was my partner right from 282 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 4: the beginning. 283 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:43,839 Speaker 2: The amount of hours of two of you right now 284 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,359 Speaker 2: are spending getting prepared for each week. 285 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 3: Is what Typically it's four hour rehearsals, but then that 286 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 3: doesn't include like fittings, interviews, camera blocking days, show day. 287 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 3: We're together from eight am until eight pm, you know, 288 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 3: so it's a lot of time. But I would say, 289 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 3: like typically right not right now, our rehearsal times are 290 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 3: four hour chunks. 291 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's in the beginning, it's it's honestly not as 292 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 4: much as you would think it is, But it doesn't 293 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 4: feel that way either because those four hours you are 294 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 4: hitting it immediately. It's it's very intense, and then you 295 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 4: kind of need those breaks after. But then when you 296 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 4: get to blocking days on Monday and Tuesday show days, 297 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 4: those are those are long days. So it's it's a. 298 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 2: Lot, Jenna for you. Dancing with the Stars is obviously, 299 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 2: I mean, I know of Dancing with Stars for many reasons. Again, 300 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 2: going back to Ezra, it was such a big deal 301 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 2: for him as a professional dancer to be on this show. 302 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 2: Can you give the fans a little backstory of if 303 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 2: this was a dream for you, if this was something 304 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 2: that you'd always wanted, how you ended up on it. 305 00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 2: Kind of walk us through that and then we'll get 306 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 2: into you obviously this season. 307 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. So I grew up at a studio that produced 308 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 3: a bunch of amazing dancers, and specifically ballroom dancers. So 309 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 3: I grew up at the same studio that Derek and 310 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 3: Julianne actually came from. And I'll never forget I was 311 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 3: Julianne was eighteen years old and I used to take 312 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 3: lessons from her. She was like one of my first 313 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 3: female ballroom teachers and she was just like the hottest 314 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 3: girl ever. And I was like, I want to be 315 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 3: her when I grow up. And she called my mom 316 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 3: one day because we're supposed to have a lesson, and 317 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 3: she was like, listen, I'm moving out to la I 318 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 3: got this big opportunity and I never saw her again, 319 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 3: and she got booked for Dancing with the Stars, and 320 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 3: that was the first time that I had heard of 321 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 3: the show. This was right in the beginning, and you know, 322 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 3: as a dancer growing up, you don't think that dance 323 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 3: can be a career or provide for your family. But 324 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 3: I think Dancing with the Stars was the first show 325 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 3: that made that attainable or like a vision that this 326 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 3: could happen for you and you could do this. And 327 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 3: so after that, there were quite a few other dancers 328 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 3: from that studio that had been booked on Dancing with 329 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 3: the Stars, Chelsea high Tower, Whitney Carson, Lindsay Arnold. I 330 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 3: then got asked to join, and this was a bucket list. 331 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 3: It was a dream of mine to be performing on 332 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 3: this stage in front of this mass amount of people. 333 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 3: So to be able to do it and to have 334 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 3: been on it for ten years, which is scary to say, 335 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 3: it's a dream come true. 336 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 2: It is super interesting that you say that that Dance 337 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 2: with the Stars kind of opened up this new path 338 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 2: for professional dancers to provide the family It's a really 339 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 2: exciting thing. This season has been a hit so far. 340 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, the viewership, the ratings, the excitement, the 341 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 2: conversations around it have been absolutely amazing. And something else 342 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 2: that's been amazing is the two of you. This last Tuesday, 343 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 2: you did the room, but it blew everybody out of 344 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 2: the water. Do you think your dance was underscored because 345 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 2: I think from social media people feel like it was. 346 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 4: I have said the same thing every single time. I 347 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 4: love the judges and I respect their opinions always. We 348 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 4: did go into that week feeling really confident. From the 349 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 4: first week we thought we did great. It was really 350 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 4: hard to start the show. You saw Jenna's reaction on 351 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 4: week one, like to get all seven. She was stoked, 352 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 4: and then we did say I said, and I was like, Jenna, 353 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 4: was I supposed to say that? But like in the 354 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 4: beginning of the week, I said I want an eight, 355 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 4: Like I said, I want to get an eight this week. 356 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 4: I feel like this is a beautiful dance as she 357 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,360 Speaker 4: created to such a beautiful song. It felt so foreign initially, 358 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 4: but I said, if I can do something this difficult 359 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 4: and do it well, I think an eight isn't a 360 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 4: crazy thing to get. And I didn't say I wanted 361 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 4: all eights. I said I just wanted one. So we 362 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 4: hit the goal that we kind of went for. So 363 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 4: I think for us, we were really excited about it. 364 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 4: I'm not going to speak for both of us, but 365 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 4: I just feel like anytime the fans say that, that 366 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 4: makes us feel great. But yeah, we respect the judges 367 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 4: and love their opinions, is what I'm going to say. 368 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 3: Good answer, No. I. It's also we can't forget that 369 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 3: it's week two. Sure, you know, to already have seen 370 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:13,400 Speaker 3: an eight in week one is unheard of, So I 371 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 3: think maybe for the fans, they saw that week one 372 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 3: and they were maybe expecting more. I'm very happy with 373 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 3: what our scores have been and where we are in 374 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 3: the leader board. This is the perfect placement for us 375 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 3: to continue to grow, to take that momentum and just 376 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 3: keep building each week, so I'm super happy again. Like 377 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 3: Joey said, it was a goal to get an eight. 378 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 3: We did, and I'll let's keep doing it. 379 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 2: But then, Jenna, as the leader here, how do you 380 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 2: how do you continue to get better? Does that put 381 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 2: a pressure on you because your scores are so high 382 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 2: but they're not quite where you will maybe want them 383 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 2: to be. How do you continue to get better week 384 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: by week? 385 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 3: That's what this process is. You want to see somebody 386 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 3: who's not a d answer become one, and I think 387 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 3: you're getting that evolution with Joey. So I think for 388 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 3: me each week it's too show is something different in 389 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 3: Joey each week that the fans are going to be 390 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 3: shocked or surprised about. You know, Week one, I don't 391 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 3: think anyone expected him to come out with that charisma 392 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 3: he did Boom week two. I don't think people expected 393 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 3: him to have that quality or those nuances and the 394 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:20,719 Speaker 3: details in a rumbo which is so difficult. He did it. 395 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 3: So I think that's where we go. I just want 396 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 3: to keep pushing him, and he's such a great student. 397 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 3: He really listens and he wants it, so I love 398 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 3: that I can push him. But I think we can 399 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 3: obtain those goals and keep getting better each week. 400 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 2: Is there a type of dance right now in your 401 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 2: head that you're like, that's our home run? Like this 402 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 2: fits Joey, it fits me. If we like want when 403 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 2: we need to bring it out, we'll bring it out. 404 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 3: It's hard because there's a few different styles that I 405 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,120 Speaker 3: love doing on this show just because I know they 406 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 3: translate well and the audience loves them. So I'm like 407 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 3: looking forward to a dance like an Argentine tango or 408 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 3: a regular tango or v needs walts. Those are some 409 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 3: of my favorite dnancewers to choreograph. But you know, with 410 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 3: Joey's athletic ability, I think something like a quick step 411 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 3: or a jive is really going to show him off 412 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 3: where he can show that he has stamina, he has athleticism, 413 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 3: and we can kind of just fly. 414 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 2: So you know, so there's a lot in the worst, 415 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 2: there's a lot. 416 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 3: To work with. 417 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 2: That's that's great. 418 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 3: There's a lot I'm excited for for sure. 419 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, Joey, you mentioned it earlier about the kind of 420 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 2: the physical condition you've been in. There's a thing in 421 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 2: my notes here I had no clue about that was 422 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 2: brought up to me, but you've gone to great links 423 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 2: for this show, including botox in your armpits. 424 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 4: Oh my god, I can't is that a thing? I 425 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 4: can't explain how funny this is, and I will. This 426 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 4: is a great time to set the record straight on 427 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 4: all of this. When I got off The Bachelor, I 428 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 4: had a sweating issue. I don't know what it was, 429 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 4: other than the call it a sweating. 430 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 2: Issue, I like during The Bachelor too or after. 431 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 4: More after it kind of happened with Carrie a little 432 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 4: bit way through that. We had to be kind of 433 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 4: smart about the colors when I was in like Mexico whatnot, 434 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,719 Speaker 4: because it was so random that it was like a 435 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 4: nervous sweating thing or like an anticipation thing, and it 436 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 4: was only carried in my armpits, Like wasn't sweating anywhere 437 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 4: where you could see it, like through the shirt. But 438 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 4: I would just get like these crazy pit stains, and 439 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 4: I was like, I don't want to look like this 440 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 4: on TV. So it got so bad through the show. 441 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 4: And then obviously you get off the show and it's 442 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 4: wintertime and I'm doing press in New York and I'm 443 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 4: going to press in New York, and I'm like I'm 444 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 4: sweating through a full suit here, like it got really 445 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 4: really bad. So I asked for like anyone, like what 446 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 4: do you have for help? And it's just so funny 447 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 4: because this company offered to do like botox in the armpits. 448 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,479 Speaker 4: It was Carrie's idea. I was like, yeah, I'll try it, 449 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 4: but I'm not kidding. That was in no I think 450 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 4: that was in December of last year, and they had 451 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 4: it and I guess they just decided to post it 452 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 4: when dancing started. I kind of honestly forgot about it. 453 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 4: So now everyone thinks it's with dancing. But if you 454 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 4: look closely at the at the video, like I have 455 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 4: my long curly hair like I did when I was 456 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 4: during Bachelor, and now I have like the shorter cut. 457 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 4: So it was from almost like all the way back 458 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 4: to earlier. This ur at the end of this last year, 459 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 4: but it it caught steam. I looked the other day, 460 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 4: it's got like over a million views on TikTok. So 461 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 4: I'm screwed. Everyone knows they got boatox my armpits now, 462 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 4: but it's worn off. So if people want to know, 463 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 4: I need to do it again. I am starting to sweat. 464 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,239 Speaker 4: We had that silk shirt yesterday, and I've obviously been 465 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,199 Speaker 4: shirtless on a few times so it doesn't matter. But 466 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 4: the pit stains are back and nervous Joe, He's back 467 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 4: in play, So I got to figure out something. 468 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 3: For these armpits. 469 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 2: Will you do it again? 470 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 4: I would? It worked really well. It took you know 471 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 4: when I did it? Actually, Ben was it was work 472 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 4: before I saw you. It was worked for the Golden Wedding. 473 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 4: That was when it kicked in. So the Golden Wedding 474 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 4: was the first time I like, actually wore a suit again. 475 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 4: I was like, whoa, this actually worked and it was 476 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 4: great for the last six months or show. So and 477 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 4: I guess it can wear off and usually going on 478 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 4: national TV brings out nerves for people, so I guess 479 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 4: it's happening again. 480 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. I was going to say I never noticed it 481 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 2: during the Golden Wedding. 482 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 4: The boatox was activated. 483 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 2: That's what see. I'm actually guessing, Joey, here's how you 484 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 2: should look at this. It has so many views because 485 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 2: there's so many people that are like, I need to 486 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 2: do this too, Like what did Joey do? I see 487 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 2: this headline? I need to watch it. So you're helping people. 488 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 4: That was what the That was what they said to 489 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 4: the people that did it said, it's actually not the 490 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 4: most known thing. I think it's called I don't want 491 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 4: to mess up the name. It's hyper summer. 492 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 2: Hyper hydrosis is what I. 493 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 4: Have to It's called hyperdrosis and whatever it is. I 494 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,160 Speaker 4: definitely got it so and apparently other people have it too. 495 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 4: And yeah, I'm raising awareness about sweaty pitts. What a fuck. 496 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 4: That's a great post a child for Joey. Good job, 497 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 4: good job. 498 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,479 Speaker 2: For you, man. If you've done nothing else in this 499 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 2: last year of your life, you've done that right. The 500 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 2: the chemistry you guys have is palpable, It's awesome. We'd 501 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 2: be remiss not to bring up just the comments that 502 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:57,199 Speaker 2: have existed around your dancing partnership. I think I'm not 503 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 2: going to put words in your mouth, so I'll ask 504 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 2: the questions first. Obviously that has been a big topic. 505 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 2: Either of you can answer this. Are you surprised that 506 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:06,719 Speaker 2: it's a big topic. 507 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 4: I'll start on this if you want to, and then 508 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 4: I feel like you'll definitely do the best of filling 509 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 4: in from the pro side. We knew like we knew 510 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 4: coming in as a Bachelor Nation thing. I think it's 511 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 4: understandable that people are paying attention to my relationship always, 512 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 4: and it was something that Kelsey and I talked about. 513 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 4: It made sure before doing this that she was comfortable 514 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 4: with putting that into kind of the world. Again, I 515 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 4: think that we were more surprised and not that people 516 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 4: couldn't step away and understand the situation of the relationship 517 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 4: I was in, the relationship that Jenna was in. We 518 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 4: were kind of hoping that people would be a little 519 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 4: bit more aware of that, but we weren't necessarily surprised. 520 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 4: I think it was more just trying to have a 521 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 4: conversation of people understanding that it's not something that you 522 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 4: really need to be focusing on. We want to be 523 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 4: able to connect and have what we have on the 524 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 4: dance floor and have this friendship and trust with each 525 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 4: other without this assumption of something that we would never 526 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 4: be doing. So I'll legenda talk because she's on the 527 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,439 Speaker 4: pro side of I'm sure this happens every season with 528 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 4: different people. But I would not say that we were 529 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,120 Speaker 4: necessarily surprised from the comments. We just wish people were 530 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 4: kind of understanding the situation a little bit better. 531 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Joey nailed it. But I have been 532 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 3: on the show for a while, and so has my husband. 533 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 3: We've been paired with the opposite sexes. I've been paired 534 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 3: with a girl. People were assuming things were happening with us. 535 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 3: So it just kind of comes with the show. I 536 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 3: won't say unfortunately. I love that people are that invested 537 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 3: and they like feel like they're part of your partnerships. 538 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 3: But you know, I think that no, I'm desensitized to it, 539 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 3: but I just knew that this would probably happen, and 540 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 3: especially with the franchise that he comes from. But like 541 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 3: Joey said, I think it's very obvious that my relationship 542 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 3: is known on the show. I mean, I have a child, 543 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 3: my husband's on the show as well, and I thought, 544 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 3: you know, people would obviously know that Joey's engaged. So 545 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 3: I think there'sppointment when we're so excited about being able 546 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 3: to be announced on Good Morning America finally, and there's 547 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 3: just like all these comments that kind of like, you know, 548 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 3: why does it have to do that initially, But I 549 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 3: think it's gotten so much better. Kelsey's incredible. She's been 550 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 3: so supportive during this whole experience. Obviously, my husband loves 551 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 3: Joey and is so supportive, So I think we could 552 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 3: have asked for better partners in this situation. But yeah, 553 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 3: it just it kind of comes with the show on 554 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 3: the territory. There's there's always going to be chatter, and 555 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 3: then I think once you get past the initial shock 556 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 3: of it of like seeing these two people together, then 557 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 3: they forget about it and they're just invested in our 558 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 3: dancing and what our partnership is going to do and 559 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:42,360 Speaker 3: how far we're going. 560 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 4: To go exactly. I'll add one more thing too, because 561 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 4: I don't even know if I've talked about this as well, 562 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 4: Like it was something I thought about coming in. I said, 563 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 4: I wanted to be in a situation where I was 564 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 4: comfortable that I didn't have to worry about a lot 565 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 4: of this noise. So I asked when I got on 566 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 4: the show to be paired with someone that was in 567 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 4: a successful and healthy, reallylationship. I said, I didn't want 568 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 4: there to be any chance of noise on this because 569 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 4: I know that comes with the show and the territory sometimes, 570 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 4: and I was in such a great place in my 571 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 4: life with everything that Kelsey and I have built that 572 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 4: I didn't want to have a distraction so we understand 573 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 4: why it's happening. But I was also coming in with 574 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,239 Speaker 4: those thoughts being like, let's do everything we possibly can 575 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 4: to help with it, and Jenna nailed it that we're 576 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 4: in probably the best spot we've been now with Kelsey 577 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 4: being more vocal with us trying to do is everything 578 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 4: we can to have people kind of settle down and 579 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 4: hopefully we can just get to just enjoying and having 580 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 4: fun and focusing on our dances each week. Now does it? 581 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 2: I want to talk a lot about Kelsey here in 582 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 2: just a second, because I think she has done just 583 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 2: a tremendous job at I don't want to say navigating 584 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,159 Speaker 2: it because it's not like an issue in her life probably, 585 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 2: but it's she's doing a great job publicly with it. 586 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 2: But for you two as partners, now, is there an 587 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 2: element you have to be intentional about not have like 588 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 2: showing that connection off or are you are you trying 589 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 2: to convince the audience now that maybe it isn't as 590 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 2: close because in my mind, based off what I've heard 591 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 2: from the beginning, having that chemistry, having that closeness is 592 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 2: a key to the success of a dancing partnership. So 593 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 2: have you at any moment been like, hey, like, we 594 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 2: shouldn't do an interview side by side or is there 595 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 2: any of that going on. 596 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 3: I think we're very intentional with what we do, but 597 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 3: I think our main focus isn't catered to the audience. 598 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 3: I think it's catered to our individual spouses or significant others, 599 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 3: you know, being just intentional aware of their feelings and thoughts. Yeah, 600 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 3: but I want to again, you know, like my job 601 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 3: is to teach my partner how to dance and to 602 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,239 Speaker 3: create beautiful shapes and art, and so at the end 603 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 3: of the day, I have to make sure that I'm 604 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 3: doing my job and I'm creating art and I'm teaching 605 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 3: Joey how to be a good partner. So I think 606 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 3: it's just the mindset. Also, obviously obviously we have a 607 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 3: ton of fun together. We have a great time. But yeah, 608 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 3: I would say like publicly we are very aware and 609 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 3: intention all. 610 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, nailed it perfectly. And as you said too, Ben, 611 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 4: like it's important. It's actually been one of the best 612 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 4: compliments we've gotten from the beginning on week one and 613 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 4: two is that the judges see that we trust each other. 614 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 4: There is a chemistry and connection, and that's really important 615 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 4: to be able to make the art that she's talking about. 616 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 4: So we're aware, but we're also leaning into the idea 617 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 4: that we're comfortable with each other and that's great. We 618 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 4: wouldn't change a thing about that. 619 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 2: I'm sure Joey. Before the season started, we do have 620 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 2: people within our group that have been on Dance with 621 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 2: the Stars. What were those conversations like with Kelsey? Not 622 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 2: even from a who my partner is going to be standpoint, 623 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 2: but hey, this is going to be a huge time commitment. 624 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 2: I'm going to be investing a lot of time away 625 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 2: from home. Like, how did those conversations exist in your 626 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 2: relationship so early on, you know, post bachelor. 627 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a great question. I think the first thing 628 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 4: was I was not going to do it unless she 629 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 4: was okay with it. I knew that from the beginning. 630 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,719 Speaker 4: I was really lucky that Charity did it the season 631 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 4: before this, and she was obviously fresh off how things 632 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 4: were and I got to talk to her about it. 633 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 4: There's a lot of levels to why our situation was 634 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 4: better than Charities because she went straight from the bacherette 635 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 4: right into it. It worked out great for them because 636 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 4: Dotton was able to work a remote job and He's 637 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 4: been amazing and supportive, and I think they did it 638 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 4: perfectly for them. But if we had to do that, 639 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 4: if I was going straight off the Bachelor and I 640 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 4: was going to jump into it, I probably would not 641 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 4: have done it because it would have been really tough. 642 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 4: But Kelsey and I had obviously those three months or 643 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 4: so to be able to enjoy, have fun, go learn 644 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 4: a lot about each other while having all these experiences, 645 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 4: and then I was able to have the real conversation 646 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 4: with her of what do you think about this? Because 647 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 4: it's getting tossed towards me, but I have to kind 648 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 4: of actively look to do it if I want to. 649 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 4: So I want to start having those conversations, but I'm 650 00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 4: not going to do it unless we talk through it. 651 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 4: And she actually was the one that pushed me the most. 652 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 4: She said, no, I think you should do this, not 653 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 4: only because I think you'll enjoy it, but I think 654 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 4: you'll be good at it, and I want you to 655 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 4: have that experience. So unless I had that conversation with her, 656 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 4: I don't know if I would have probably had the 657 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 4: combos I did and been in the position. She gave 658 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 4: me the confidence that I could do it, and it 659 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 4: did help that we had Charity and Dottin to talk 660 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 4: through what the time commitment would be. And it's the 661 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 4: same as the Bachelor, like you think you know and 662 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 4: then until you're in it, you don't. So we're still 663 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 4: navigating through that as much as we possibly can. But 664 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 4: she's been nothing but supportive. We love being in La 665 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 4: right now. There's so many exciting things that are going 666 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 4: on here too, so it's been great, but we're still 667 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 4: we're learning through it every day as well. 668 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 2: What are some ways, Joey that you've made your relationship 669 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 2: of priority already in the first two weeks. 670 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 4: Being really present when I come home, because it's hard, 671 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 4: and it's honestly more through communication, Like I need to 672 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 4: tell her as soon as I get home that I 673 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 4: need to decompressed for like twenty minutes because I'm tired 674 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 4: and I'm thinking of my dance in a million different ways. 675 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 4: And then once I feel like I'm centered, now I 676 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 4: can have a real conversation with her, but you know, 677 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 4: telling her about my day, being excited and talking through 678 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,479 Speaker 4: all the amazing things I did, asking her how her 679 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 4: day was, how was her workout, how was this meeting 680 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 4: that she walked to, Like all those little things of 681 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 4: trying to just have the open communication but then feeling 682 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 4: each other out too, Like I want to make sure 683 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 4: that she's feeling comfortable, and if we need to have 684 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 4: a chill night, she'll understand that. But then if she 685 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 4: really wants to go out and go to this party 686 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 4: because it's an opportunity for her to meet more people, 687 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 4: I got to suck it up and go to that party. 688 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 4: But it's been good so far. I can obviously always 689 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 4: be better. I'm not going to act like I'm a 690 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 4: master at this, but I think that we've been doing 691 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 4: really well the communication and not letting things fester if 692 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 4: there is any type of issue. So I'm just trusting 693 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 4: and leaning on hers. She's happy, I'm happy, and we're 694 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 4: just trying to have as much fun as we can 695 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 4: with this awesome opportunity that came my way. 696 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 2: Sounds like you're doing it right. I've been married for 697 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 2: three years. It's I would love to see here and 698 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 2: be like, no, this is how you should do it. 699 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 2: I don't know, just you'll do you best if you 700 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 2: love or you'll figure it out. Jenna Kelsey has said 701 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 2: that you've been a support. You know, obviously your relationship 702 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 2: with her is important too. You've done this for ten years, 703 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 2: as you've said, you're not shocked, you know by the 704 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 2: fans reactions in these comments. What are some ways that 705 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 2: you've kind of found to support Kelsey through this journey 706 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 2: or just give some insight into what to expect. 707 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it was really important right away. As 708 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 3: soon as Joey and I had met each other, we 709 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 3: were like, let's get you guys over to our house. 710 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 3: I want her to meet me, I want to meet 711 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 3: I want her to meet Val, meet our son. You know, 712 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 3: just already established that relationship together too, so she felt 713 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 3: really part of it and comfortable in this partnership because 714 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 3: she's part of it. So yeah, we did that right 715 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 3: away before we were announced on Good Morning America's partners, 716 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 3: they'd come over to our house. We had dinner, which 717 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 3: was so much fun. And then she's been our like 718 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 3: social media queens. She sends us all sorts of audios 719 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 3: and ideas. Is like, she's so good at that, and 720 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 3: I love that because Joey and I are brain dead 721 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 3: at the end of the day. We don't have the 722 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 3: capacity to even think about that. So she's been so 723 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 3: helpful and involved with us on that aspect, and then 724 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 3: we actually got dinner. We did a little double date 725 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 3: last Tuesday after the show, we all went to catch Stake. 726 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 3: So it's it's been really fun. Obviously, it's this is 727 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 3: only week three, so we still have a lot more 728 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 3: time to get to know each other. But I told 729 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 3: Joey from the beginning, I really think it's important that 730 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 3: we are open with her, and I want you to 731 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 3: show her the videos from our day. I want her 732 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 3: to feel part of it, so she's just as excited 733 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 3: as you are. And she's been really really awesome with 734 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:43,959 Speaker 3: that so far. 735 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,720 Speaker 2: At least on social media. Kelsey has been so excited 736 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 2: about this process. Joey, not that you need to do this, 737 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 2: but I think one great thing that everybody listening would 738 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 2: love to know is if you could just kind of 739 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 2: give it's a summary of where your relationship stands with 740 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 2: Kelsey right now, kind of how you're doing, doing, what 741 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 2: you're looking forward to, what you're excited about, or maybe 742 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 2: it's the opposite, but I don't think it is. 743 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 4: No, No, all good things. It's been great right now. Obviously, 744 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 4: it's been a funny thing that I was spending a 745 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 4: lot of time in New Orleans with her living with 746 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 4: her roommates. This is the first time we've been in 747 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 4: a place just us and kind of starting to make 748 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,280 Speaker 4: a home together. So that's been a really fun. Part 749 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 4: of the beginning of this whole process is we have 750 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 4: our own place. We're doing a lot of stuff, getting 751 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 4: a lot of alone time together, which we found in 752 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 4: our own little way in New Orleans, but this is 753 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 4: even better. A big thing for us right now is 754 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,280 Speaker 4: we're just trying to figure out what's going to happen 755 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 4: post show, and we've talked about New York, but being 756 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 4: in LA being here and enjoying it, We've been also 757 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,879 Speaker 4: a lot more open to staying here because we think 758 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 4: there's a lot of great opportunity here too. The weather 759 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 4: does not suck if it's a lot of things that 760 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 4: I want to do with playing more golf and tennis 761 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 4: and being in that world. But I think right now 762 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,760 Speaker 4: the biggest thing for us is we are both trying 763 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 4: to stay present, enjoy that we aren't traveling all over 764 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:02,800 Speaker 4: the place like we have been the last few months. 765 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,240 Speaker 4: Really diving into this experience for both of us, because 766 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 4: it is an experience for both of us right now 767 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 4: and looking forward to what can possibly be in the future. 768 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 4: We're not making any rash decisions, but we both have 769 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 4: enjoyed la and it seems likely that we might stay 770 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,919 Speaker 4: here post show. But in our mind this is still 771 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 4: a temporary move. We're still just trying to live in 772 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 4: the present and do the best we can to build 773 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 4: our relationship. That's what we really have been focusing on. 774 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 2: It reminds me of the best piece of advice I've 775 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 2: ever been given. Somebody I look up to a lot. 776 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,919 Speaker 2: His name is Bob Goff. He's an author of Love Does. 777 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 2: As my show was going on, there was chaos around me, 778 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 2: and he said, Ben, as chaos ensues, just be where 779 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 2: your feet are, which feels very wow familiar to where 780 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 2: you're at right now. So every day, I I'm not kidding, 781 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,400 Speaker 2: since then that was years ago, I tap my feet 782 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 2: where I like when I'm sitting at my desk, and 783 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 2: I tap my feet and just remind myself be where 784 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,799 Speaker 2: my feet are. It's been incredible, and it feels like 785 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 2: what you could do right now because you're using your 786 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 2: feet so often, kind of clean this whole thing up 787 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 2: here and finish us up. Obviously, the golden Bachelorette is 788 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 2: happening right now. There is somebody in your fan camp 789 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 2: that's on the show. Jenna, are you watching the Golden Bachelorette. 790 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 3: I haven't had time too. I have to admit I 791 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 3: am trying to choreograph our dances while we're not practicing. 792 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 3: But I was able to meet Kelsey Zad and he 793 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 3: is just absolutely adorable. So I need to get caught 794 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 3: up because I really want to see his journey. 795 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 2: He had a moment this week. Mark is a star. Joey, 796 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 2: you're obviously watching it, right, yes, sir, thoughts so far, 797 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,240 Speaker 2: we obviously just saw Mark have his first kiss with Joan. 798 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:48,280 Speaker 2: It's a big deal. 799 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, Oh my goodness. 800 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 3: They walk the lips. That's so cute. 801 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:57,760 Speaker 2: It was romantic too. It was sweet. 802 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 4: Oh you should have saw Kelsey's face. He did it, 803 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,760 Speaker 4: Jenna with like showing a card that said and because 804 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 4: he knows German, and he was doing German like can 805 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 4: you guess what this phrase is? And the camera like 806 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 4: pans over and the phrase says can I have a kiss? 807 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 4: Or something along those lines in German. So Kelsey like 808 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 4: knew it was coming and she just put the pill up. 809 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 4: She's like I can't watch, just tell me what happened. 810 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 4: So it's so fun to see that dynamic. You know 811 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,399 Speaker 4: how weird is sometimes to watch yourself on TV, And 812 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 4: we obviously were watching ourselves on TV during that whole 813 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 4: experience that we had in the Bachelor. So I don't 814 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 4: think I've ever seen Kelsey get this giddy about a 815 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 4: show before, and it is so fun. I'm finding myself 816 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 4: looking at her more than I'm watching the TV when 817 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,399 Speaker 4: her dad's on, because she's just so excited for him. 818 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 4: Thoughts on the Golden Bacherette is amazing. I'm in love 819 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 4: with the show just because the men seem so awesome. 820 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 4: Kelsey and I cannot get over Charles. Charles's Charles. We're 821 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:55,919 Speaker 4: obsessed with him. 822 00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 2: He made my wife ball absolutely ball scene. 823 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 4: He was just I know, I know, but the prom 824 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 4: scene when he was sitting there and thinking about his wife, 825 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 4: I said, Kelsey, I need a new grandpa. I'm grabbing 826 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:12,320 Speaker 4: Charles like I want. He just was the cutest man ever. 827 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 4: Joan's been doing amazing. I love just the feel of 828 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 4: the Golden Bachelor franchise. I just think it's just a 829 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 4: different feeling that show and Kelsey and I are loving it. 830 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:26,320 Speaker 4: We're obviously supporting Mark one thousand percent, but I'm also 831 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 4: blown away with how amazing all these guys are. And uh, yeah, Jenna, 832 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 4: you're gonna have to start watching it because I want 833 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 4: to talk about it as much as I can, So 834 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 4: it'd be fun to talk about it. Practice. 835 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll get on it. 836 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 2: It's something that my wife doesn't watch the franchise.

I think it's amazing. I'm 845 00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 4: in a different spot than Kelsey is. I don't think 846 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 4: anyone wants to see their parents kissing on TV. But 847 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 4: I'm just I'm team Mark one thousand percent and just 848 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,399 Speaker 4: going to support him whatever he does on that show. 849 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 4: I love him. 850 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a he's doing great.

How special is it 854 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 2: for you to see Valve be nominated for an Emmy 855 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 2: for his tribute to Lyn Goodman. Obviously this is a 856 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 2: big season and vow's you know, working that is so important. 857 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 2: What did it feel like for me? 858 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 3: So we were actually nominated together? 859 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 4: Oh, amazing that piece. 860 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, And but to that point, to be nominated together 861 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 3: was insane, Like what other husband and wife get to 862 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 3: say that they've been nominated for an Emmy for their 863 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 3: work together. So it was definitely like a bucket list 864 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 3: thing to do. And to be there and to be 865 00:40:56,560 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 3: like surrounded by all of these artistic geniuses was insane. 866 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:07,760 Speaker 3: And then choreographing that piece was a huge honor. Yeah, 867 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,879 Speaker 3: just such a special time in our life. And yeah, 868 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 3: to honor Len Goodman who was a high judge for 869 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 3: so many years was amazing. 870 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 2: So yeah, congratulations to the two of you, the two 871 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 2: of you together. 872 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:21,800 Speaker 3: But it's such. 873 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 2: An impressive just thing to have that, and like you said, 874 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 2: for you to be standing next to your spouse, I mean, 875 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 2: if there is not a definition of a power couple, 876 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 2: that would be it. Like, hey, we've been nominated for 877 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:34,800 Speaker 2: an Emmy together. 878 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was crazy. Thank you so much. 879 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 2: Thank you, Joey. I need to create a headline here, 880 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 2: so give me some support. We saw Kelsey with Jonathan 881 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 2: at Tuesday's live taping. Jonathan was obviously there to support 882 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 2: a lot of people, including Jin. Do you think he 883 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 2: was there for more than just a friend? End of 884 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 2: question and the. 885 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 4: Question looks like a little more. I will say this, 886 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 4: I have gotten to know Jonathan since I've been in LA. 887 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:12,880 Speaker 4: We've hung out a few times. I love Jonathan. I 888 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,839 Speaker 4: have zero idea of what's going on between the two 889 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 4: of them. I saw that Good Morning America interview with 890 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 4: Jen and Jonathan. I know you probably want me to 891 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 4: say something that helped give some inside intel. My answer 892 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 4: is I have zero idea. I just know that Jonathan 893 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 4: is obviously in Jen's camp supporting her. He's supporting me too. 894 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:33,799 Speaker 4: He always reminded me of he supported me too, So 895 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,399 Speaker 4: I'm happy about that. But at the same time, they 896 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 4: seem very close. They seem like they're enjoying being in 897 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:39,400 Speaker 4: LA together. 898 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 2: But I don't know. 899 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 4: I have not really asked Jonathan that I wanted to 900 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 4: get to know him for him and kind of separate 901 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 4: the two because I know how tough it is coming 902 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 4: off a show and like having yourself be associated with 903 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 4: the lead, especially when you're not with them. But I 904 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 4: have no idea what's going on with them. I really don't. Jenna, 905 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,359 Speaker 4: you got any guesses from what you've seen. 906 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 3: I again, I didn't see the season. 907 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:01,800 Speaker 4: I wanted to put you in there. I wanted to 908 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:03,720 Speaker 4: put you in there, so I'm being on the spot. 909 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 4: I need you to be on the spot too. 910 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 2: Don't worry. You gave me the headline. Jonathan and jen 911 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:09,760 Speaker 2: are very close, says Joey. 912 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:11,319 Speaker 3: That's all thank you close. 913 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's all I need. All right, Are the two 914 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 2: of you going to win this season? 915 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:18,439 Speaker 4: Yes, let's go. 916 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:19,839 Speaker 2: Let's go. 917 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 4: We did put our name as Team Twinning because a 918 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 4: lot of people said that we looked alike, and the 919 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:28,880 Speaker 4: idea was we put win is capitalized. So we've been 920 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 4: saying it from the beginning. I think when Jenna was, 921 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 4: as we talked about the beginning, disappointed with me being 922 00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 4: her partner. Our first goal was just trying to make 923 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 4: the finale, because no Bachelor's ever made the finale before. 924 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 4: But I do think we're both in a really great spot. 925 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 4: Off to the first two weeks and we think that 926 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 4: we do have a chance to do this if we 927 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 4: keep improving the way that we have so the goals 928 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 4: will win this thing for sure. I'm not doing this 929 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 4: for second place, but if that happens, I'll be happy too. 930 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 4: But the goal is to win it. 931 00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:01,280 Speaker 3: Gin anything that ad no I again, I say yes, 932 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 3: But that's the ultimate goal, is to I think, be 933 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:07,320 Speaker 3: in the finale. Like Joey said, no bachelor has ever 934 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 3: been there. We've had a ton of bachelorettes in there. 935 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 3: We've had a ton of bachelorettes when so how epic 936 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,359 Speaker 3: would it be to win this mirror ball? But to 937 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 3: be the first to do it as well? I would 938 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 3: love that for Joey. 939 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,319 Speaker 4: I'd love that for you. Jenna. You need to get 940 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 4: closer to the valves. She only has one, has three. 941 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 4: We got to get her at least. 942 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,760 Speaker 3: And the fact that you said only is really annoying. 943 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:30,040 Speaker 3: I have a mirror ball I've won before. But yes, 944 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 3: I would love to add to the stack. 945 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,239 Speaker 4: Yes, we're going to try to double it this year. 946 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:34,799 Speaker 4: That's the goal. 947 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, improved by one hundred percent. Hey, the two of 948 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 2: you are great. We wish you the best. I know 949 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 2: the fan support is out there.
