19
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,280

20
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 4: you know, and really kind of almost are like a

21
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 4: hard reset into what they're looking for in relationships. Not

22
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 4: that you know, handing out flowers on TV makes you

23
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 4: an expert in relationships, but I am.

24
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: I am a totally no.

25
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 4: But I would say that people go on there and

26
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 4: they come off the show and they're like, Okay, this

27
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 4: was fun. This was a great opportunity for me to

28
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 4: meet some great people. Now I know what I'm looking

29
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 4: for and here's what it is. And we hear a

30
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 4: lot about this. We hear a lot about really successful

31
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 4: relationships coming on the heels of someone's you know, participation

32
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 4: in the show.

33
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 3: I think it's great.

34
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 2: I think it's awesome. So they hard launched their relationship

35
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 2: last September.

36
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 3: So almost at a full year.

37
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 2: Almost at a full year, which means they probably were

38
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 2: dating before September. I would be surprised if they like

39
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 2: went on their first date and then he's like, hey,

40
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 2: we should post this on Instagram tomorrow, right, they were

41
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 2: probably burying the lead for a while. Yeah, so they've

42
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: probably been together for about a year. This is a

43
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 2: very exciting time for Rodney and uh And obviously, like

44
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 2: you said, the fan favorite, the next headline is this.

45
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 2: Maddie Pruitt announced that her and Grant are expecting a

46
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 2: little baby.

00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 3: What's going on is something in the water lately bench.

00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 2: A lot of people are sleeping with their spouse.

49
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 3: I guess God blessing, God bless.

50
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: This is a really, really cool announcement. I think Bachelornation

51
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 2: is very excited to see her. She's kind of built

52
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: a big following, you know, with her podcast obviously her

53
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 2: her husband, Grant is a pastor. Uh and I think

54
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 2: people are absolutely stoked for baby Trout.

55
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 4: Ah.

56
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 3: That's so sweet, man.

57
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 4: I always liked her on that season, and you know,

58
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 4: I remember, I don't know why, it just something that

59
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 4: always pops into my head as that the last the

60
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 4: kind of the last kind of confessional they had when.

61
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 3: When Peter's mom came on. Oh goodness, she was she

62
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 3: was a customer.

63
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 4: And uh so, you know, I'm always interested when I

64
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 4: get to see someone come off of that season and

65
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 4: see great news for them.

66
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,839
Speaker 2: So very exciting. That was probably some of the best

67
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 2: TV The Bachelor's ever produced.

68
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 4: Between that and what we were talking about yesterday with Jake,

69
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 4: Jake and Vienna's breakup video.

70
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 3: That was about his boffel. I could get too now.

71
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 2: If I remember, Maddie was kind of the one that

72
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: Peter chose at the end of his season, right.

73
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 4: So you know, my good friend Natasha told me once

74
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 4: that he wanted to.

75
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 2: Be with Maddie.

76
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 4: Okay, but Mattie kind of took herself out of the mix,

77
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 4: she self eliminated, so to speak. So then he did

78
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 4: propose to Hannah m and Hannah Ann thank you. Then

79
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 4: unhappy couples, which I don't even know what that is,

80
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 4: but I like that. Then Mattie came back and then

81
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 4: he said I wanted to be with Maddie instead.

82
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 3: That's when we met Captaine.

83
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: That Peter season. I don't remember all this had like

84
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 2: three legitimate breakups in the in the course of like
