00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 1: this week and lots of people are wondering if you

7
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 1: guys got secretly married because she was wearing two bands.

8
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 1: What's up? I hope she listens to this because she's

9
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: going to be so embarrassed. So because it's hilarious. If

10
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:40,959
Speaker 1: you only knew my uh sweet little uh naive fiance,

11
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: you would laugh at this. So she what happened was

12
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 1: she had her bands made already um around her ring

13
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: and they came in and they're beautiful her bands. She

14
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: has multiple bands. Well, so her ring that we we

15
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: she has is like a diamond in the middle, and

16
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: then she got a band on the top of a

17
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: band on the bottom, so it kind of like um

18
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: like sandwich yeah um. And it came in. So she

19
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 1: had a mayor had to send her ring overseas. What

20
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: she was super nervous about. It was like took like

21
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: a month and a half to two months it came

22
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 1: back last week and she put them on and she

23
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: wait a second, her engagement rings she had to send away.

24
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: Oh my god, she hasn't been wearing it for that long. No,

25
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 1: she's been so nervous. Um. So there's all this build

26
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: up and she loves her ring like so much, and

27
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: it comes in the mail. These bands come the mail.

28
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: She puts them on, and she like is in love

29
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: and so she I come home one day and she

30
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: shows me the ring and the bands around it, and

31
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 1: she says, do you have a problem with me wearing this?

32
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: And I said, I don't have a problem, Like I

33
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: don't care, like I don't. I mean, I guess I

34
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: don't know, like the tradition of it all. But at

35
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: the same time, if you love it and it like

36
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: makes you smiled, and maybe take it off like a

37
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: month before the wedding and we'll you know, you can

38
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: wear it after that, but I don't care if you

39
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: wear it till then. And she's like, I don't know,

40
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: is that weird? I was like, I don't. I don't

41
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: maybe to me, but I'll explain later. Yeah, And so

42
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: we kind of went back and forth on this and

43
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: she took him off for like a couple of hours,

44
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: and then a couple of hours later she put him

45
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: back on. I saw her sitting at the table and

46
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: she was like looking at her ring. I was like,

47
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 1: how do you just wear it? Like if you love

48
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: them and it makes you happy and like you're proud

49
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: of it, then like wear it and and so right now,

50
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 1: I think she's still wearing them. I have a feeling

51
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: she'll take him off at some point because I think

52
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: her mom maybe mentioned to her that, like, hey, Jess,

53
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: like that's a little like you should wait, but bad luck.

54
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: No I don't. I mean I don't think it's bad

55
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: luck luck, yeah, as much as just like kind of

56
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: like yeah, like you said, like it's a little traditional traditional. Yeah,

57
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: So yes, she is wearing her bands. We did not

58
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: get secretly married. Um, we are are still engaged. Our

59
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: wedding is still set. But she's doing this just because

60
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: I think she's like so excited. I don't know, that's

61
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: so cute. Yeah, I wouldn't do it. It's just like

62
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: a cool step to take when it's the time to

63
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 1: take that step, you know, Like I like to be

64
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: official when things are official. I'm very traditional. I know

65
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: you guys are, so I would recommend just for like

66
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: sake of well not regretting it and not being special

67
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: when the time actually comes to not wear right now.

68
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 1: But you know it's totally up to her. That rolls

69
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: me over into another question, how do you feel about

70
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: man engagement bands? Like if you got years now, would

71
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: you wear it? Um? No? And here's why for another reason,

72
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: I'm not going to probably wear a ring. I'm gonna

73
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: get no, I'm gonna get on tattooed on. OK. Yeah,

74
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: I have a weird thing I always have with rings,

75
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: like they kind of make me feel claustrophobic and um,

76
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 1: and like they always have Like I've never worn a ring.

77
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: I used to try because one of the producers on

78
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: the show We're a Ring Alan And I was like,

79
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: oh that's cool, I'm gonna try it. And then I

80
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: did and get give me like panic attacks. Um, it's

81
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: like your Genie braces, you know how like the Genie

82
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: he felt so free once the braces off his wrist.

83
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: It's gonna it's exactly how I'm gonna I felt. So

84
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: I was like, I think I'm gonna get tattooed, and

85
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: she's cool with it. I'm still I'm still going to

86
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: get a band and try to wear it for it,

87
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: but like it's a good backup. So no, I'll be honest.

88
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: As much as I'm excited about marrying uh, Jessica, I

89
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: am not looking forward to having a ring that's my

90
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: felt like, in my traditional mind, it's totally okay for

91
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: you to have it tattooed on. For me, I just

92
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: need an outward symbol that you are married and take

93
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: it out. Oh yeah, I'm not like I'm not trying

94
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: to hide that part. I'm mostly trying to just say,

95
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: like I don't want something on my finger, and I

96
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: play with everything on my body. I'm always a fiddler,

97
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: Like right now, I have a uh water cap that

98
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: I'll spend this whole podcast because I'll probably get a

99
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: little anxious and I'll just spin it. Um. Yeah, so

100
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: that's the big thing. But we had a uh that's

101
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: a great question, because we had a big conversation around

102
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: this ring uh and her bands, and I just think,

103
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of cute for me to see

104
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: her so excited and love this, you know, a piece

105
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: of jewelry so much that she just doesn't want to

106
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: take it off. It makes me like it makes my

107
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: heart warm. So yeah. Also, actually another big thing um

108
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: after the Easter weekend here last night, I got my

109
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: very first like real facial from Jessica because she is

110
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: opening up her spa in Denver and we painted it

111
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: all weekend. Uh yeah, but she gave me this facial,

112
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: and I need to ask you this. She made the

113
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 1: comment to me, and you know, she makes comments to

114
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: me that like my friends probably could make and I

115
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,679
Speaker 1: would get less mad at my friends. But like she said,

116
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: your face just like really sucked up all that moisturizer,

117
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: like you you have really dry skim. And I was

118
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: like i'd even comment. I was like I don't want

119
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 1: to hear it, um, but question for you, yeah, like

120
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 1: is it common after a facial to have like all

121
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: of the liquid just like gone off of your face?

122
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: Like I feel like I had really dry skin And

123
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to tell her that, but I feel

124
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: like I did well after a fractional you'd probably feel

125
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 1: like more hydrated than you did going into it. Well.

126
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: I think that also there's a difference and she'll tell

127
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: you this between dry skin and and not hydrated skin,

128
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,159
Speaker 1: like one is like natural you're born with dry skin. Um,

129
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: and you have to kind of overcompensate, and then not

130
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 1: being hydrated means that you're not like treating it properly

131
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: with the right products and with enough water. So we'll

132
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 1: have to get we have to figure out what you are,

133
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 1: especially in Denver being that you dry climate that we

134
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 1: don't really know what it is. I'm learning a lot about.

135
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: She's gonna get you covered. Apparently you said that Jess.

136
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: Is that Jess said your skin was fed up? Are

137
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 1: you sure she didn't mean like it sucked all the

138
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: hydration into it because it was so thirsty. Yeah, I

139
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: think that's where she meant. I don't really know the

140
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: skin stuff. Actually, obviously gonna I'm gonna be learning a lot.

141
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: And she knows so much. I mean, she's always talking

142
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: about skin and my friends. Now, all my guy friends

143
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: have these like pimples and stuff on their face, and

144
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: it's hilarious because like when they're alone with just like

145
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: the two of us, they'll be like, hey, uh, Jess,

146
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: I know this is weird, but like, can you look

147
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: at the spot on my face? I'm about to do

148
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: the same thing. Because that girl, she's good and she's

149
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: got magic hands. Well reminded remind the listeners where they

194
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: of attention from some former uh Bachelor alumni. His name

195
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:33,040

Speaker 1: end up as the winner this season, I think you're

201

Speaker 1: the way that Ben Flannic reminds some people of Francine. Yeah.

205
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: He uh, he has a story to tell. I'm saying

206
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: that because of his necklace with a ring on it

207
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,439
Speaker 1: that represents something that he's wearing in this picture. Oh

208
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: my goodness. Could it be like an old wedding ring

Speaker 1: you know what. That guy, he's very similar to me.

213
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 1: And then he can't grow beard if he tried his hardest. Um,

226
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,800

227
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: and I'm trying to look at it. I originally thought

228

Speaker 1: this picture had him with a shirt on with a

229
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,520

Speaker 1: I'm saying the same thing as I said earlier. I

236
00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: don't think we hear much from him. I think he's

237
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: nice guy. I'm sure he's a sweet man. Uh, but

275
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: another eager one here. I don't see him going very far.

276
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,080

280
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: forty five minutes to get ready, and you probably have

281
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: at most twenty minutes in those little bathrooms when you're

282
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: in the mansion. And at some point he's gonna snap

283
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: because the perfectly placed spikes uh aren't gonna work anymore.

284
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,160

00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: is something that I've considered multiple times in my life.

00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,800

333
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 1: than he is about fashion. And I respect him. I

334
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: respect that Landed twenty five, Bakersfield, California. I take back

335
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: that the other guy needs a haircut. This guy needs

336
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 1: to figure out his hair situation. And more terrible tan

337
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,160

342
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 1: I said earlier, this picture doesn't do this guy justice.

343
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,240

344
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,120
Speaker 1: on your LinkedIn all those things. But when you get

345
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: to know him, I think we're gonna like him. Marty

346
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: from Reno, Nevada. This guy is like rad as our

347
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 1: producer Amy would say, like he's got edge and um,

348
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: he looks like he could be like from another era

349
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: with his style. He's wearing. I think it's a flower

350
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: ear ring. And when people do that, I automatically like

351
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: get nervous around them. And here's why, because they're just

352
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 1: cooler than me. Like if you can wearing feather a

353
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 1: feather earring. When I see somebody wearing a feather earring,

354
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: my like my social anxiety heightens because I go, there's

355
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: no way I'm cool enough for this person. And we'll

356
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: look at his rings. Ben, they must be making you

360
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 1: stay when there's it's just not happening. Yeah, I mean

361
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: he's he's on the older side of this cast. He's

362
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: I mean that has to play with you a little bit, right,

363
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,160
Speaker 1: Like to be the oldest person in the house. He's

364
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 1: not the oldest, but he's tied. Yeah, so I would

365
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: see the same thing. Um. Moving on then to Mike

00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: wonder if religion is going to comp with him because

374
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: get gets the gums going. They gonna get sensitive. We

375
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 1: get Courtney twenty six from Arlington, Texas. Courtney spells his

376
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: name very interestingly Courtney, which is kind of cool. Um.

377
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: He definitely doesn't know how to pose for a photo.

378
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 1: He's even got a little stomach showing mid drif. Yeah,

00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 1: well there you go. HU who doesn't who doesn't love

380
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: a little mid drift? Tanner twenty eight from del Mar, California. Oh, Tanner,

381
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,879

382
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 1: I don't know that this guy is going to stick

383

Speaker 1: He's a little dorky, little dorky who doesn't love a

385
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: little dorky loves a little dorky. Tom s from San Diego, California.

386
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: He looks very confident. He could be like one of

387
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: those guys that like borders between confident and cocky. Yeah,

388
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: he knows how to pose for a photo. He has

389
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,439
Speaker 1: very tight pants on, and he's not facing the camera right,

390
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: so he's kind of sitting to the side, which is

391
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 1: always a strong move because if you face the camera

392
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 1: with tight pants on, it just gets awkward. Um. But

393
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: it's almost as if he's trying to draw attention to

394
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 1: his package area by having his hands there. Well, Hey,

395

00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,399
Speaker 1: guy has a face that we can't like, Like, I

398
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,439
Speaker 1: don't know this face can belong to a personality that

399
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 1: we don't like. Another big Paradise guy. I feel like

400
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 1: he's gonna do really well in Paradise. We're gonna even

401
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 1: know him better, uh, and we're really going to fall

402
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 1: in love with him. Victor thirty two from Galveston, Texas.

403
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 1: It looks like a salt of the earth type man.

404
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: I feel like he works with his hands. He's got

405
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 1: some crow's feet in a very full beard. He reminds

406
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 1: me again like it's almost like a Sean Booth like vibe.

407
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: Even though like I don't think this guy is attractive

408
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: as shan. He has an alligator skin belt on, which

409
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 1: makes me think that fashion is important. If you, if

410
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: you could scroll down on this photo, I bet he

411
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 1: has cowboy boots on to match his alligator skin belt.

412
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of alligators. If you don't know

419
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 1: it's a big deal for me. When Ashley I can

420
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 1: Eddie sends you a gift, you keep it. I mean

421
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: I wish I would have got it signed on the

422
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 1: belly region um, but I can always say when all

423
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: my friends come over there like, oh, sweet crocodiles, say,

424

425
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: the Ashley I Connetti. Uh, sweet, sweet sweet Ashley. That's

426
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 1: all the guys. Here's my first take on these dudes.

427
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 1: I think it might be the best looking group of

428
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 1: men that I've seen going into a show, uh in

429
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 1: a long time. I would concur like, you know how

430
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 1: the past couple of seasons, just based on the initial pictures,

431
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 1: we've been like, ohre so and so, like it's like

432
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,880
Speaker 1: the greatest looking much and then they always turned out

433
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: to be very nice looking on TV. This season, I'm

434
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,640
Speaker 1: looking at these photos and I don't feel an initial

435
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: bad for Katie, Like, if this is what they look

436
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: like in the pictures, they're going to look even better

437
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 1: in real life, you hope. So right, Like that's what

438
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 1: we're thinking because it's traditionally the way. I mean, I

439
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: remember when Hannah Brown season came out and we're like, WHOA,

440
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: what is going on? And then the end up being

441
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 1: some like really good looking dudes and it all makes

442
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: sense in the end, Uh, super nice looking guys uh

443
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 1: from all over the US, a wide age range. I

444
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 1: think that's one thing that people are going to continue

445
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 1: to pay attention to um. The age range here on

446
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: Katie's season is pretty wide. We have like, what twenty,

447
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: what's the I think it's I think it's thirty six,

448
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 1: which is good and very similar to Clarentatious season, except

449
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: for Katie smack in the middle of those ages. I

450
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: think she studied one or thirty two, so it'll so

451
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: I think it's all great and age appropriate for Not

452
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 1: that I can determine what is age appropriate for her,

453
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: She can choose whatever she wants, but like, I think

454
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 1: those that's the angine I would be interested in if

455
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: I would go thirty. In a fact, lret well, it

456
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: looks like that's the majority of the cast. Of course,

457
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 1: we don't know who's confirmed until ABC releases it to

458
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,959
Speaker 1: the website, so we will update to you when that

459
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,679
Speaker 1: comes out. Anyway, we have one girl here in the

460
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 1: waiting room. Should we take a break and let and

461
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: let the anticipation simmer or the right in? No, Heather

462
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: Martin will be coming on right after the break. Here's

463
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: the thing, Ashley is going to grill her for everything

464
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 1: and good that happened on her time during Matt James

465
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: season of the Bachelor. We'll be back with almost famous podcasts.

466
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 1: All right, it's the moment that we've all been waiting

467
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: for since we got news last night that you were

468

469
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 1: questions for you than I feel like we've had for

470
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 1: guests in a long time. Burning questions, you know, like

471
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: behind the scenes questions. We had a great conversation with

472
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: Joe Park last week. We made so many questions for

473
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,719
Speaker 1: him and love him so much, but we we got

474
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 1: a lot of Bachelor related questions for you. I'm nervous

475
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: and I'm sorry. Have you done an interview? Since this

476
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 1: is my first interview, we feel very privileged. Yes, of course,

477
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:59,920
Speaker 1: you guys are always first. So okay, so it's hey,

478
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 1: guess back, when did you start having the initial thoughts

479
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 1: to possibly want to go on that season? Or were

480
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 1: you trying to meet him off camera first? So no,

481
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,239
Speaker 1: to be honest, so and all, okay, So back up

482
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: it all started. Um, So, Hannah obviously was really good

483
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 1: friends with Matt and she quarantined with them, the whole

484
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: quarantine crew thing, and then she went back to Alabama

485
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 1: and then she was like transitioning to l A. So

486
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 1: she was gonna move to l A. But she's like, Hey,

487
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: can I come stay with you in San Diego for

488
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks And I was like, yeah, of course.

489
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,399
Speaker 1: So that was at like first of July or like

490
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,199
Speaker 1: the thirtieth of June, and she came and literally the

491
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 1: first thing she said, like we had talked, but like

492
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 1: small talk. We hadn't talked to anything about that really,

493
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: But when she got to my house, the first thing

494
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: she said, She's like, Oh my goodness, Heather, like you

495
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,159
Speaker 1: and Matt would be such an amazing match. Like it's crazy,

496
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 1: like you would really like him and he would really

497
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:55,920
Speaker 1: like you. Like it's just like she was like had

498
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 1: like an epiphany almost, um. And I was like, oh,

499
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 1: really like and think much about it. I never really

500
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 1: I know he would already at that point he was

501
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,120
Speaker 1: already announced because announced as bachelor. I was just like, oh,

502
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 1: like dang it, Like that's a bumber, but like I

503
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 1: didn't really think much about it. Um. And then throughout

504
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 1: those couple of weeks that she was here, she just

505
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 1: like continued to talk about him and like talk about

506
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 1: her time there, because like that was like a lot

507
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 1: of her life, you know, the past few months, um,

508
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 1: and the more she talked about it, She's like, dang,

509
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 1: Like she was so passionate about it, and it got

510
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 1: me like, okay, wait, I started like thinking about it,

511
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,919
Speaker 1: and then like, that's really rare for like her to

512
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 1: really say anything, because she wasn't. She's not just like

513
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 1: this like matchmaker that tries to do it all the time.

514
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: Like when she said something, she like means it. So

515
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: I was like, dang it, like that's such a bummer.

516
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 1: Were you attracted to him? Yeah, I was attracted to him.

517
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: I just hadn't like the fact that he was the Bachelor,

518
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 1: like he was already just like I didn't think, oh,

519
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back on the Bachelor. I think that

520
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 1: just wasn't even like a possibility in my brain. I

521
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: never even went there, so I just didn't think about it.

522
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: But I was like, dang it, it's really rare or

523
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: from for someone one of my really good friends who

524
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: knows me so well to think that there's a guy

525
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: out the guy that she knows really well that would

526
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 1: be really good match and like all the qualities and

527
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 1: faith and just everything about us. Um So it was

528
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: just like kind of a bummer. But I still again

529
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: wasn't like I didn't know him. I didn't really, I

530
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: just knew what like she talked about him, and I

531
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: was just like dang. But then she continued to continue,

532
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: like over the next couple of months, and she continued

533
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: to talk about him, and I was like, she's like, hello,

534
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: what if you just went on the show? And I

535
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: was like no, like at first, like like there's no

536
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 1: way I'm going back on that, Like it just there

537
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 1: wasn't even like a thing I could think about. And

538
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: then yeah, and then just the way the second out

539
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: of all of this time, because it's like over almost

540
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: this span of months, why didn't she say, let me

541
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: get you on face time with him, or let me

542
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 1: or like maybe we'll go see him if he's in

543
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: l A doing press or something like that. Why didn't

544
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 1: she try to at least have you guys meet in

545
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: person so that if there really was enough of a

546
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 1: chemistry and connection that you could go on the show

547
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: and he'd be really accepting of it. So I did,

548
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 1: like she was on facetome with him, like I said, Hi, Um,

549
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: she didn't want to like impo, like she didn't want

550
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: to say anything, and she's like there was anything to

551
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: happen like I don't want to like say anything, but

552
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: she kept telling him the same thing, and I think, um,

553
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: he he just didn't know me as well. So it

554
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: was just like a thing that we didn't want to meet.

555
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 1: He was gonna come to l A and I wanted to.

556
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: She was like come up and see him, and then

557
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: he didn't end up coming and seeing her, So they

558
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 1: didn't see each other at that point. Um, And by

559
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 1: the time I was actually like serious about it, it

560
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: was like it was already like he was like going

561
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: out to be filming, so um so side saying hi

562
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 1: on FaceTime, no real meeting. Yeah, no, okay, that was it.

563
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 1: It's uh, it's it's a weird time too, because you know,

564
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: Becky Tilly came on on my season and I'd met

565
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: her once in passing, and I was like, you know,

566
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: but I was going to be the bachelor, and so

567
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 1: at the same time, you're like, hey, this is weird,

568
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 1: but if there's something here, just come on the show,

569
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: because you kind of have that, like I guess, the

570
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: selfish desire of like I don't I don't know, like

571
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: I want to give this a tribe being a bachelor

572
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: and try to day at the same time. So then

573
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: you decide at some point to go onto this season, right,

574
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 1: how nervous point? Yeah? How and and how nervous were you?

575
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: Like what's going through your head? Um? So yeah, at

576
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: the point I started. So I started at that point

577
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 1: when I was like, Okay, I really need to meet

578
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 1: this guy. It was like I'm gonna regret it if

579
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 1: I don't like wait, I was like, what am I

580
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: gonna work out more? And so I was like, so

581
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 1: then I started like trying to reach out and talking

582
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 1: to you know, producers and stuff, and then, um, I

583
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 1: was terrified, Like I was absolutely terrified. I was like,

584
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: there's no way I can do this again. And I know,

585
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: like I wouldn't be coming in like I knew what

586
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 1: it wasn't gonna be like open arms welcoming in and

587
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 1: also just like going through that whole thing again, like

588
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: it's really not like my natural personality to do that

589
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: this kind of thing. Um, So I was really I

590
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: was really terrified. But I literally was just like motto

591
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,239
Speaker 1: was like everything that I'm afraid of doing, I just

592
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 1: have to like do it anyways and just like be

593
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: bold and like I'm like, what am I going to

594
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: get more? If I don't try if I try, so

595
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: I just I did it. Okay. So what week was

596
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,719
Speaker 1: it that you ended up calling them as far as

597
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: film dates, because we know that they started filming the

598
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 1: first second week of October. So when did you start

599
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: making the calls? Um? I mean I was in I

600
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 1: was talking to them before that, and I think they

601
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 1: were just like, I'm not sure, and so they weren't

602
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 1: so down with the idea, which is actually shocking to me.

603
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 1: I don't know why they wouldn't be Um. Yeah, Like

604
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: they were just like I don't know. It was just

605
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: like kind of up in the air. It was just

606
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 1: like not sure. Um. Yeah. It was just like it

607
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 1: was like we're there, we're in talks, and they were

608
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 1: like talking about it. I think they were just like

609
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: thinking through like what could work, what couldn't work, what's

610
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 1: gonna be best for matt um, and so it was

611
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: just kind of like it was all like we're in talks,

612
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 1: um for a bit. It was for a while, and

613
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: so I was kind of just like, I don't know

614
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 1: what's going to happen. Um. So, and it was never

615
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: an option for you to go in with the other

616
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 1: later rivals in week three or four. I don't know

617
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: if it was I see, I knew nothing about that,

618
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 1: so I don't know if that was an option for them.

619
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: It could have been. Um, but I think there's just

620
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 1: so many people I don't know. They weren't like telling

621
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: me like what was happening obviously and letting me know

622
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: about there's extra girls and all these things. So like

623
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: it was just like, we'll keep you posted. Not sure

624
00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,040
Speaker 1: that kind of thing. So, I mean, in credit to you,

625
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 1: you you're staying in it, You're pursuing it, You're interested

626
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 1: in it because you're interested in this guy, Like this

627
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: is an ideal for you. You don't want to show

628
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 1: up to a show like late in the season, you know,

629
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 1: cause a little RUCKI is like you you were actually

630
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: like into him and you wanted to see if this

631
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: could work. So then you fly out to the filming,

632
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: walk us through, how did this work? How did it happen?

633
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: Where were you staying? Uh, there's so much unknown, so

634
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 1: many things that you have to clarify. What did what

635
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 1: did it work out? Like, Oh, let's be real, did

636
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 1: you booke that flight? I did? I did book the plate? Yeah?

637
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 1: Um yeah? So I Um, so I taught I had

638
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: like my because I was telling you like we were

639
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: in talks, is like back and forth, not sure, blah blind.

640
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 1: I was just like at that point, I was like frustrated,

641
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 1: but also I was like I've put so much thought

642
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: into this at this point, and like I've invested, you know,

643
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 1: because once you think about something for so long and

644
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 1: you're like I put a lot of energy, I'm just

645
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,320
Speaker 1: like it has to happen. I was like, I gotta

646
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: make this happen, like one way or another. And so

647
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 1: I had, um, like a final conversation with one of

648
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: the producers and he's like I can't see how he

649
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,479
Speaker 1: can make this work. Um, I don't think it's gonna work.

650
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 1: And I was like, we're making it work. So I so, yeah,

651
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 1: so what I did? So yeah. I literally that day,

652
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: um just I literally booked a red eye from Elliott's

653
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: to Pittsburgh and rented a minivan and drove to Nemico

654
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 1: in the next morning. So I need two rent a minivan.

655
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 1: It was such like a joke for everyone. It was

656
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,919
Speaker 1: so funny that that was like that became a joke

657
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 1: because for like when they so I just got there

658
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: for it, and I was like I got to rent

659
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: a car and went to Enterprise, like, oh, we have

660
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 1: a minivan. I was like, yeah, sure of course, Like

661
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 1: yeah twice I had no Like I was laughing. I

662
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,879
Speaker 1: was like, oh, like I took I was taking videos

663
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 1: and myself I got a minivan, got nothing of it.

664
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: Like I was just like, this is great. Fits on

665
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,720
Speaker 1: my bags, like whatever. I thought it was kind of funny,

666
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 1: hadn't I didn't think my car was going to be like,

667
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 1: I just thinking, so, yeah, that was so funny that

668
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 1: became a thing. I was stoked at the minivan. Had

669
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 1: no idea what was going to happen. But yeah, that

670
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 1: was that. I always n a minivan if I can

671
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: ren a car, because you know, at some point hopefully

672
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 1: in my life, if I'm blessed, I'll I'll have the

673
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 1: opportunity to drive a minivan full time. Um and needed

674
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: to need to, but I'm always down for it. Uh.

675
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: Knowing you through the podcast and getting to meet you

676
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 1: and knowing your story on Colton season, which was you

677
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: had never been kissed and you were a little more shy,

678
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 1: a little more reserved. You now find yourself drawing driving

679
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: across Pennsylvania in a mini fan on your way to surprise,

680
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:06,959
Speaker 1: a nationally televised show. What is going through your head?

681
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: And how are you not panicking? How are your pits

682
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: not sweating out? Like how is this you are? I honestly, Ben,

683
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. Like it was so crazy and I

684
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 1: was like what the entire time, I was like what

685
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 1: am I doing? Like I'm like, this is just it's

686
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: just like anti my normal thing. I just felt like,

687
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,360
Speaker 1: to be honest, I just felt this like strong sense

688
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 1: of like this is what I'm supposed to be doing

689
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 1: and I don't I don't know why, Like it was

690
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 1: very weird. I just like I just said I have

691
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 1: to do um. I just really really felt that way,

692
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 1: and so I just went with it. And I was

693
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,920
Speaker 1: like the entire time, like when I got like boarded

694
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 1: the plan, I was like hea, They're like what are

695
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 1: you doing? Like your psycho like what's happening? And then

696
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: just like kept going. I was so nervous. I think

697
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 1: I think the most nervous. I think when I was

698
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: driving up to Neemic Colin was like the scariest moment

699
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 1: of my life. I was like, what in the world

700
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 1: is happening? Okay, So when you were driving up to security,

701
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: did you text producers that morning be like, hey, just

702
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:15,400
Speaker 1: letting you know I am on my way. Um. I

703
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 1: think they they they kind of had a warning. Yeah okay.

704
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: I feel like Chris Harrison really wasn't prepared though when

705
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 1: he saw you. That was yeah, yeah, I don't know.

706
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 1: It was so you you you were staying at a

707
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,840
Speaker 1: motel and they were they like basically said, go back

708
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,399
Speaker 1: to it while we make this decision. Did you really

709
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: go back to a motel or did they say okay, here,

710
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 1: we have a room. Um, I don't know what I'm

711
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 1: want to say, guys, I was saying. I was saying,

712
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 1: like a Hampton in, a beautiful Hampton in, And yeah,

713
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: I think they Um, after that reversation, we had quite

714
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 1: a long conversation and then um, they called me soon after.

715
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 1: I think they just like I'm ready to say in

716
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 1: And then I started quarantining with them. I like, there's

717
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,360
Speaker 1: no judgment here either, because here's the thing. You have Ashley.

718
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: I can Eddie, who is like a hopeless romantic and

719
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: loves this story and like if this is the way

720
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: this turned out where you met your husband, she would

721
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: be in tears watching it. And then you have me

722
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: who's like I just can't believe you did it, Like no,

723
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 1: it's like yeah, and to me, it's not shocking at all,

724
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 1: nor is it like really wacky to me, Like I

725
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: could see myself sort of doing this, But this is

726
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: where I this is where I stopped maybe seeing myself

727
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,320
Speaker 1: doing it, especially after how many times I've done the

728
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 1: show and all that, and you only you only did

729
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 1: it once. So like, whatever, fight, just just do it.

730
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: If you feel it, just do it. It's not like

731
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: you're like seemingly desperate by going of your second time

732
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 1: to try to meet a guy that you know your

733
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: best friend thinks that you'd be so well fitted with. Okay, so,

734
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 1: but this is this is when I'm like, when you

735
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 1: found out that after quarantining for a short amount of daisy,

736
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: you'd be going in during the top six Rose ceremony,

737
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:22,439
Speaker 1: the ceremony that narrowed it down to top six where

738
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: you could do it all think oh crap, it is

739
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 1: too far in Honestly, I didn't know that at that point, Okay. Um,

740
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 1: I mean I knew, like obviously it wasn't Night one.

741
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: I knew it was not like Week one or two,

742
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 1: but I had no idea, like I knew it was

743
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: a rose ceremony, but like I just didn't know, like

744
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 1: how many girls are left. I knew, I didn't know

745
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,240
Speaker 1: other girls had come in, like, but at that point

746
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, I mean to enter

747
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 1: a road ceremony was like absolutely terrifying and like walking

748
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:53,279
Speaker 1: up the stairs and I was like, oh my gosh,

749
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 1: what do you guys? Like what do I have to do?

750
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,520
Speaker 1: But looked like just you know, like you looked so

751
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:02,319
Speaker 1: beautiful that it must have been so hard for him

752
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:05,719
Speaker 1: to say no, oh you're so sweet, thank you. But

753
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 1: now I was just like I was already. I was like,

754
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,359
Speaker 1: I did all this and I've quarantined, Like there's no

755
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,400
Speaker 1: way I'm gonna like I was like, even if they

756
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: make an absolute flow on myself, which I was like

757
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: I was expecting to do, like I prepared myself. I

758
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: was like, this is gonna not gonna like make me

759
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: look in the best lights. But I was like whatever.

760
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 1: I was like, I hear I went through everything like

761
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 1: to get here, I'm like whatever, the people who know

762
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 1: me know me and love me, and I'm already like

763
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: they know I'm a weirdo, so like whatever other people

764
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 1: have to say, it's like whatever. I think it's very

765
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:38,359
Speaker 1: strong of you. I think very brave. I mean to

766
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 1: to really just kind of know that there was like

767
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: a ninety chance off you were going to, like quote

768
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 1: make a fool of yourself. That's awesome to me, Thank you.

769
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: It was a hundred percent chance. In my brain, I

770
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,840
Speaker 1: was like, there's no way. It's like I mean, I like, no,

771
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: you no. I know the process, so I knew what

772
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: was going to happen. But I was just like, it's

773
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 1: worth it, you know. He their way. I was doing

774
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 1: something I was afraid of, and I was like, it'll

775
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 1: be a story or it'll be you know, it could

776
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: work out. So I didn't know. So let's talk about

777
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: that night. Okay, Matts reaction to you, Were you happy

778
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 1: with it? I would have been happy with it. I

779
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:17,920
Speaker 1: think that he was actually quite receptive to you and

780
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,400
Speaker 1: very sweet the way he handled it. Yeah, he was

781
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:25,440
Speaker 1: so sweet. Like I was like, walking to Chris Harrison

782
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 1: was like I was saying, it's like the scariest moment

783
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 1: in life, but I think like that was the second

784
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 1: scariest moment of my life, like walking up, having to

785
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 1: just walk in past the girls, and like I didn't

786
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 1: know if I should smile. I didn't know if I

787
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 1: should wave, like I had no idea. I was like

788
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 1: literally like shaking. Um. But he when I walked in,

789
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 1: he just started dying laughing for like like a weird

790
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 1: amount of time. And I was just like it just

791
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,400
Speaker 1: like that like put me at ease, Like it just

792
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: made me feel like immediately comfortable. You know. I was

793
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 1: like okay, like I felt like someone I knew, and

794
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 1: like it just wasn't scary. So I just like his

795
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: presence just immediately put me at ease. Um. He was

796
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 1: so happy. He's like, I'm so excited. It was just

797
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 1: like yeah, I was very very appreciative of his response.

798
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 1: For sure, I did you did you black out? Like

799
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: you remember? Do you remember the moment when you walked

800
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 1: into the room that was I was watching it. I

801
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 1: just want to know, like did you know it all?

802
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: What you were doing and saying it was kind of

803
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 1: weird like right before, like I because with Colton when

804
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 1: I did that, when I got out of the limo,

805
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 1: like I completely blacked out, like I had no idea

806
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,680
Speaker 1: what was happening. But for some reason, like as I

807
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 1: was pulling up in the minivan, before, Um, I just

808
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 1: had like it was like I was really scared. It

809
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 1: was just like I was with it. Like I was

810
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: like I had like a weird sense of peace. I

811
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:49,399
Speaker 1: was like, okay, so I kind of do I kind

812
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 1: of was like it felt more normal. I feel like

813
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,400
Speaker 1: because like he felt more like a human than like

814
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 1: this idolized celebrity crush person. All right, we have to

815
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 1: talk about the girls because they were very mean to you.

816
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 1: It was another point of bullying in this season. How

817
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:10,319
Speaker 1: do you feel about them now? Um? I have no

818
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 1: like bad feelings about the girls now. Um, I understood

819
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 1: where they are coming from, and like I understood they

820
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,359
Speaker 1: were frustrated, and I think that's why I was like

821
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:26,359
Speaker 1: I was really sad and shocked about the reaction. UM.

822
00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 1: But no, I have no ill will towards the girls

823
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: or any like negative feelings. I think they were just

824
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 1: like I understood it. So they're protective. I mean all season, right,

825
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: we went from like with these with this cast like

826
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 1: buying to um being just like mean, I don't know

827
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: if you can like separate the two. Um, and it

828
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 1: was just like another sign of that. But also they're protective.

829
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: That just feels like you're invading their space a little bit. Well, um, Heather,

830
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 1: you know you go through this whole season, this becomes

831
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,719
Speaker 1: a storyline. I'm super intrigued at what your life looks

832
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 1: like now because there's been rumors goes flying around. Right,

833
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,399
Speaker 1: You've been in the headline still even past this, you're

834
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,800
Speaker 1: in the headlines for people thinking they edit you out

835
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 1: of um the women tell all and then there's headlines

836
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:20,359
Speaker 1: saying that Matt and you are together. So what's going

837
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:25,839
Speaker 1: on in life? I mean life is pretty much back

Speaker 1: lot going on in his life, like he is. You know,

Speaker 1: he's going through a ton I can't even imagine, um,

842
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,759
Speaker 1: which is like so many different aspects. So it's just

843
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,400
Speaker 1: of the show, just everything. Um, so I think he

845
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:56,160

852
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: San Clemoni. Okay, yeah, that was like a while ago.

853
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:21,960

865
00:46:56,480 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, mysterious. Well, how did it feel then

866
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 1: with the women tell all you from everything I've read

867
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: and seen, you weren't edited out. They just had moved

868
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 1: you in and out of the set at times, right,

869
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:19,359
Speaker 1: uh m hmm. Yeah. I don't know, guys, I don't

870
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: know what I'm allowed to say say that you can

871
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:26,000
Speaker 1: just in that there. Well we'll make our assumptions. Heather,

872
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: you uh, any chance you go on Paradise. Um, I

873
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 1: don't think so. I don't think Paradise is. I mean

874
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 1: I don't want ever like again, Like I hate saying

875
00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 1: I never would have said I would have gone back

876
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 1: on the show. You know that one has been a no.

877
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:47,799
Speaker 1: But I don't think that's the show for me. I don't,

878
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 1: just for multiple different reasons, but um, yeah, I don't

879
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 1: think so. M h m hmm. Lots of people have

880
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 1: told us that, like Derek paith One said there's no

881
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,399
Speaker 1: way away and then we saw him on the beach

882
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:04,759
Speaker 1: two months later. That's why I hate, like, I don't

883
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,319
Speaker 1: want to ever say because then exactly I always get

884
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 1: annoyed and people say that and then they do it.

885
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 1: But as of now, that's kind of Brian. Okay, Well,

886
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 1: you're the sweetest and I feel like everybody is very

887
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 1: attached to you now, even more so than after Colton season.

888
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 1: I think that people would like to see you on Paradise, So, UM,

889
00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 1: don't rule it out. If there's a little little part

890
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:30,680

891
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 1: very kind super you are super sweet, and it was

892
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,920
Speaker 1: very crappy for us to see the hate that you

893
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:41,600
Speaker 1: were getting that week, because we're like, this isn't about

894
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:45,319
Speaker 1: heav Are you kidding me? Like this isn't Heather doing

895
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 1: anything wrong. She's just like exhausting all options and like

896
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 1: making sure that she's not missing out on something. This

897
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:54,799

00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:41,719
Speaker 1: Instagram and see how Caitlin pranked Jason from like two

909
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:44,759
Speaker 1: thousand miles away. She's in New Mexico filming The Bachelorette

910
00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:48,480
Speaker 1: and he is, I believe, like in Tennessee at their home,

911
00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:54,360
Speaker 1: and long story short, she sent him a naughty picture

912
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 1: the night before. It was all very planned out, and

913
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,600
Speaker 1: then the next day she had thirty for ends from

914
00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:03,919
Speaker 1: all different realms of their life. Text him, Oh my god,

915
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 1: did you mean to post that on your instant story?

916
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 1: And then he called her and he was like, everybody's

917
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 1: everybody's asking if I am posted something on my Instagram

918
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: and I have no idea what they're talking about. And

919
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 1: then Caitlin was like, oh my god, um, was it

920
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:21,799
Speaker 1: what I sent you last night? And he is just

921
00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:25,800
Speaker 1: f freaking out, Like you guys have got to see

922
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,840
Speaker 1: the footage that she has recorded via Faceheimer's room or

923
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 1: something like that, just hysterical at how completely anxious he was.

924
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 1: And then when she said April Fools, you could tell

925
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,920
Speaker 1: that he was annoyed. But it was maybe the greatest

926
00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:47,839
Speaker 1: April Fool joke I've ever seen ever, so definitely pulled

927
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:52,919
Speaker 1: this up on Instagram another April Fools which started why

928
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:57,320
Speaker 1: couldn't it been for real? Uh? Matt James posted earlier

929
00:50:57,360 --> 00:50:59,560
Speaker 1: in the day on April Fol's Day that it was

930
00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 1: taught peace out Beard Well everybody got really excited that

931
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:07,719
Speaker 1: he was showing his handsome face off again, and just

932
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:11,719
Speaker 1: a couple of hours later, he posted again on Instagram

933
00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 1: with the beard in full force, that April Fools like

934
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:21,240
Speaker 1: his eye clothes, uh, saying April Fools hashtag beard gang.

935
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:23,719
Speaker 1: So I guess the beard is not gonna go anywhere soon.

936
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 1: This April Fool's kind of reminded me of um Michael Strahan's.

937
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 1: Michael Strahan's was fantastic. The day before April Fool's Day.

938
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:33,879
Speaker 1: I know this is not badche related, but I think

939
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:37,680
Speaker 1: it's worth noting, he posted that he was at like

940
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 1: the oral surgeon of the dentist or something, and he

941
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:44,440
Speaker 1: got his teeth his gap, his infamous gap fixed and

942
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:48,720
Speaker 1: they must have put you know, false season there, and uh,

943
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:50,920
Speaker 1: you know, there's so many comments like you look beautiful

944
00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 1: both ways, but like, oh I really really missed the gap.

945
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 1: How could get rid of your signature? And then on

946
00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 1: April Fool's Day he revealed that the gap was still there.

947
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 1: He said that all the comments are really sweet, but like,

948
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 1: I love Rachel Strahan and I thought that was such

949
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 1: a fantastic apriforce too, in not joking news, but wonderful news.

950

966
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:24,120
Speaker 1: Can't wait to hear the story in other pregnancy news. Apparently,

967
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:26,680
Speaker 1: my husband's laughing at me. Why are you laughing at me?

968
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,160
Speaker 1: You know what you do headlines by yourself, so I

969
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 1: know I understand. I'm sorry, I was walking and describing

970
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:35,399
Speaker 1: your shirt. Yeah, you know what. You're throwing me off too.

971
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:40,919
Speaker 1: It's like you're like silently trying to open the closet door. Yeah,

972
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 1: but that's when you're going back and forth with somebody,

973
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,359
Speaker 1: not like trying to do a monologue by yourself. I

974
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:48,040
Speaker 1: have to do this thing, so I needed to grab

975
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:50,319
Speaker 1: my shirt. But anyway, point is I think it's I

976
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 1: was thinking about how I would describe Crystal. Yeah, it's

977
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:56,480
Speaker 1: like everything is verious. Yeah, it's great and I'm so

978
00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,760
Speaker 1: happy for and um it's always like we're talking about

979
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 1: some that you're friends with but like haven't seen in

980
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,080
Speaker 1: so long, about having a child with somebody you don't know,

981
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:08,440
Speaker 1: you know, it's like he seems great, and um, like

982
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: I'm so happy for them. And then that's really all

983
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:12,759
Speaker 1: I have to say about it. It's very because it's

984
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:15,759
Speaker 1: such a monumental moment in somebody's life. I want to

985
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:18,400
Speaker 1: support them. Yeah, her pregnancy flew by. It felt like

986
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:20,480
Speaker 1: just yesterday she announced, but she didn't announce until she

987
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,160
Speaker 1: was like four months. That's probably remember that announcement video

988
00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:25,840
Speaker 1: that she posted where she was like kind of panicking.

989
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:29,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right. It feels like yesterday. Well, do

990
00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 1: you want to stay here? While we talked about the

991
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:35,000
Speaker 1: fact that Lauren and Ari are moving to Hawaii, Yeah,

992
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:37,279
Speaker 1: that makes sense. I mean, where were they Arizona and

993
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:39,480
Speaker 1: like warm weather? Why not moved to Hawaii. They look

994
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 1: like they're doing well for themselves. Well apparently it was

995
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:45,560
Speaker 1: did you put your teeth yet? I mean yes, I did. Really,

996
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:49,759
Speaker 1: I just had a bar coffee. You had much water?

997
00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:52,800
Speaker 1: You had coffee sin sprushing your teeth. I don't remember

998
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:54,759
Speaker 1: you didn't have much water. It's okay, you can back out.

999
00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:59,759
Speaker 1: I love you, Okay, it's a Lauren and Ari are

1000
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:02,399
Speaker 1: moved to Hawaii. They were there on a baby moon

1001
00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:08,160
Speaker 1: this past week, and I get I guess they If

1002
00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:10,279
Speaker 1: you watch their video, it makes it seem like they

1003
00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:12,240
Speaker 1: have been planning this move. That they were on Zillo

1004
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,719
Speaker 1: looking around at houses somewhere else, and then she came

1005
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:20,280
Speaker 1: across this house in Hawaii and she said, without seeing

1006
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:23,680
Speaker 1: it in person, let's put down an offer. They got

1007
00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:27,640
Speaker 1: the house, and uh, they'll be moving in shortly. I

1008
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:30,120
Speaker 1: don't know when, like maybe after the babies are delivered.

1009
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:33,440
Speaker 1: But it's a four bedroom, two bathroom. It's really spacious.

1010
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:37,240
Speaker 1: You guys can see the the entire video. It's also modern.

1011
00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:39,279
Speaker 1: It's sorry to button, but you're telling me I didn't

1012
00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 1: know this that they put an offer in on the

1013
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:46,839
Speaker 1: house without seeing it in person. Are they insane? How

1014
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:48,919
Speaker 1: do you do that? How are you? How are you? Just? Like, Yeah,

1015
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:53,000
Speaker 1: I'll take the photos at their word, especially being so

1016
00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 1: prominent on Instagram, they should know better than anybody. You

1017
00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:58,719
Speaker 1: can't take photos at their word. Everything is enhanced and

1018
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,919
Speaker 1: depends on the lighting. It looks better than it actually is. Look,

1019
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:05,080
Speaker 1: I watched the video, and my interpretation of it is

1020
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,759
Speaker 1: that they bought it without seeing it in real life.

1021
00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:10,839
Speaker 1: Or maybe maybe Lauren didn't see it in real life

1022
00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:12,799
Speaker 1: and Ari went on his own or something. But it

1023
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,480
Speaker 1: was like their babyman was the first time she saw

1024
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:17,760
Speaker 1: it in real life. And he was not the realtor,

1025
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:19,640
Speaker 1: Like he doesn't have his license in why he's obviously

1026
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:21,799
Speaker 1: going to beginning his license in Hawaii. Are they going

1027
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:23,680
Speaker 1: to be their full time? Yeah, they're gonna be there

1028
00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:27,720
Speaker 1: full time. Wow, that's pretty cool. No, it is really cool.

1029
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:30,839
Speaker 1: It's so unlike us, Like you guys, Jared and I

1030
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:36,480
Speaker 1: have been in this the complete opposite of Hawaii. But also,

1031
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:39,720
Speaker 1: you and I can't put offers on anything. We're scared

1032
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:43,480
Speaker 1: list and then these peopleth put an offer on something

1033
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:46,520
Speaker 1: without seeing it. It took me two weeks to buy

1034
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:48,560
Speaker 1: a brand new pair of sneakers. We just we have

1035
00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:51,880
Speaker 1: very difficult time spending money. I like that mindset about us. No,

1036
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:53,960
Speaker 1: I did too, Jared did. There were a hundred and

1037
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:55,840
Speaker 1: twenty dollars. He's never bought a pair of sneakers for

1038
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:59,719
Speaker 1: over a hundred dollars. He was very excited about this

1039
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:03,800
Speaker 1: project Rocks, which is the Rocks line, and he motivates

1040
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:05,000
Speaker 1: me to work out. So I was like, I need

1041
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 1: sneakers to make me feel cool at the gym, so

1042
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:09,640
Speaker 1: I feel confident and it will make me work out

1043
00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 1: harder while I'm there. But then I was like I

1044
00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 1: should buy sneakers. No, I was like, Jared, you love them,

1045
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:18,680
Speaker 1: You love them, You're going to go back and treat

1046
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 1: yourself to them anyway. LA more moving news, Rachel Lindsay

00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:22,120
Speaker 1: like quarantine in another room without telling Tastia for a

1059
00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:26,520
Speaker 1: while because they are strict on the COVID protocols on

1060
00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:30,800
Speaker 1: these sets, So was he testing and staying in the

1061
00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: room before surprising her and knocking on her own door?

1062
00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, but that's almost what it makes me

1063
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,080
Speaker 1: feel like they'd have to do for all these for

1064
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:42,760
Speaker 1: all these set visits, whether it's Zac or Jason. We

1065
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:45,040
Speaker 1: hope to have Jason on the podcast soon and that's

1066
00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:49,720
Speaker 1: and we'll ask him about the significant other quarantining. Karin

1067
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:56,120
Speaker 1: Olympios reflects on controversial Bachelor naps. Well, if you remember

1068
00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:59,120
Speaker 1: Karin love naps. I don't know that this is really

1069
00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:03,600
Speaker 1: the most headline he headline you've ever seen, but she

1070
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:05,600
Speaker 1: was talking about her naps and there were two of

1071
00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,000
Speaker 1: them that really made the girls upset. One was during

1072
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:10,480
Speaker 1: a pool party back on next season. The other one

1073
00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:12,760
Speaker 1: was during a rose ceremony where she already had a rose.

1074
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:16,080
Speaker 1: She said that she just wasn't going to not be

1075
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 1: herself and she actually said, this is a little bit

1076
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:22,440
Speaker 1: more interesting to me. And then the naps. She said

1077
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:26,000
Speaker 1: that the first night, while standing there during the rose ceremony,

1078
00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:29,640
Speaker 1: she felt like she almost fainted, which I can kind

1079
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:33,480
Speaker 1: of understand because one so late, you're really tired, you know,

1080
00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 1: completely off a sleep schedule. You are in the highest heels,

1081
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:42,360
Speaker 1: standing in them still for just like standing steel in them,

1082
00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:44,960
Speaker 1: rocking back and forth for like two hours. She said

1083
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 1: that the balls of her feet were in such pain.

1084
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,160
Speaker 1: And then you may be hungry at that point. I

1085
00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:53,680
Speaker 1: don't know. I was never hungry because I would eat

1086
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:56,840
Speaker 1: all the odorves. They had so many oderves those nights,

1087
00:59:56,920 --> 01:00:00,640
Speaker 1: and then um, just like all the anxiety. She said, guys,

1088
01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:03,360
Speaker 1: I need medical attention, like I am not well. Oh

1089
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:05,400
Speaker 1: my god, oh my god, oh my god. It was horrible.

1090
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:10,080
Speaker 1: Please please don't do this. God, don't let me faint.

1091
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:14,600
Speaker 1: So you know, that's a that's a fun Karan quote

01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:52,280

01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:55,040
Speaker 1: they're going to have a podcast called Bachelor's in the City.

1102
01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 1: I think it's supposed to be like Sex in the

1103
01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:59,919
Speaker 1: City because they're going to be talking about their single

1104

Speaker 1: lives in their New York experience on this new podcast,

Speaker 1: Peter said, we thought it would be kind of cool

1106
01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:08,160
Speaker 1: to share experiences with our following and just talk about

1107
01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:10,160
Speaker 1: why we love the city so much and bring out

1108
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 1: a lot of cool, influential people in the city. This

1109
01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:15,720
Speaker 1: is a really fun city and it offers a sense

1110
01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:18,280
Speaker 1: of optimism that not a lot of cities or places

1111
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:21,960
Speaker 1: in the world do. So. Um, stay tuned for Bachelor's

1112
01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 1: in the City, another bachelor related podcast. And here is

1113
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:32,600
Speaker 1: our last headline of the week. It's according to e Online,

1114
01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:35,760
Speaker 1: and it says that there are Bachelor stars that are

1115
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:40,040
Speaker 1: apprehensive to join Bachelor in Paradise. Um. Of course, there's

1116
01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 1: been a lot of controversy around the franchise lately and

1117
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:47,600
Speaker 1: since casting has become Some members of Bachelor Nation, according

1118
01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:50,560
Speaker 1: to a source, are apprehensive to sign up for Bachelor

1119
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:53,520
Speaker 1: in Paradise. Some are wondering what direction the season will

1120
01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:56,680
Speaker 1: take and are curious if it will strictly focus on

1121
01:01:56,720 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 1: the contestants falling in love. A second source agrees with

1122
01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:05,280
Speaker 1: these sentiments, adding that they have to put um. They've

1123
01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:08,040
Speaker 1: had to put out several asked to Bachelor veterans. Many

1124
01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:10,880
Speaker 1: people are declining. Due to the current state of the

1125
01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 1: Bachelor Nation, a lot of people are removing themselves from

1126
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,000
Speaker 1: the franchise. So it will be interesting to see the

1127
01:02:17,040 --> 01:02:19,440
Speaker 1: cast that they get together for Bachelor in Paradise and

1128
01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:22,120
Speaker 1: whether these people, you know how and have initially cold

1129
01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:24,960
Speaker 1: feet and decide to go with it, or whether they

1130
01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:30,120
Speaker 1: really take a stand and don't go forward with future seasons. Well,

1131
01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:32,320
Speaker 1: if you didn't notice, Ben had to leave, he had

1132
01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:34,560
Speaker 1: to flight, and it's just been me the past ten

1133
01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:38,280
