So welcome back, Tasha, Thank you. 0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:23.119 I am so excited to be on Happy Hour for 0:00:23.200 --> 0:00:26.000 Michelle's season. I think it's just going to be able 0:00:26.040 --> 0:00:28.200 to give us a deeper look into what happened. I 0:00:28.240 --> 0:00:30.840 have so much to say, a lot of insider scoops, 0:00:30.920 --> 0:00:34.280 so I can't wait to get down Durny this season. Listen. 0:00:34.320 --> 0:00:36.120 You know, I love to hear that. I love all 0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:39.559 the tea, we love the behind the scenes. And I 0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:42.520 think we've talked about this before, but premiers like Night 0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:47.360 one is always so exciting, and today's going to be 0:00:47.400 --> 0:00:50.560 extra exciting because we have the man of the Nights, 0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:54.440 the man who received Michelle's first impression Rose, which is 0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:57.640 Nate on today to pick his brain to see what 0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:01.000 he felt night one, you know, kind of take him 0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:03.080 back to that moment when he first saw Michelle again 0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:05.240 and mid all of the men and everything that went down. 0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:08.680 But like you just said you were there, You lived 0:01:08.720 --> 0:01:11.160 it alongside of her, so you know much more. You 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:13.720 got to know some of these guys much better than 0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:15.720 any of us viewers will, and so I can't wait 0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:17.600 to have you on and pick your brain about everything 0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:20.280 this entire season. Yeah, it's gonna be so fun. I 0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:22.640 think we did something that was really different this season. 0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:24.720 We actually went to select few of the guy's room 0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:28.440 and we're able to really kind of see them in 0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:30.840 a different light before Michelle even got to meet them, 0:01:30.880 --> 0:01:34.240 which I thought was really fun and really cool. But 0:01:34.680 --> 0:01:39.720 we also I don't know if the guys really appreciated it, 0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:42.840 or should I say a certain man appreciated it, because 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.640 well we may have you know, Dug a little too 0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:47.720 hard and found a little something something, which I'm sure 0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:50.400 we'll talk about this episode, but we need to get 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:53.280 into that. Yea, literally, just do it. Okay, let's just 0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:55.960 start talking about it before we get into the guys though, 0:01:56.000 --> 0:02:00.920 I have to call out Michelle. It's just radiant, radiant, 0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:03.840 and we are both lucky enough to have met her 0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:06.280 in person, to have gotten to know her in real life, 0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:09.679 and how she comes across on TV. I mean obviously 0:02:09.760 --> 0:02:12.560 just from the outside, she is stunning, but she just 0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:17.399 carries herself with so much grace and confidence that I 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:19.520 think is going to be really great. I'm hoping for 0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:22.080 viewers to see that you can still be kind and 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:26.080 patient and attentive and just you know, have this confidence. 0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:28.239 And I think, like we sat fresh out the gate, 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:30.040 when the all of the men met her, I think 0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:33.400 they were just in awe, Like she was glowing. She 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:36.160 was glowing. I mean, she completely takes your breath away. 0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:39.320 But I think also like, aside from the beauty of 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:42.360 it all, like she's just a really good person and 0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:49.399 she's extremely levelheaded and she doesn't need anybody to complete her, 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:51.919 which I think she's well aware of. She's just looking 0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:53.519 for someone to compliment her. And I think that that 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:58.040 completely changed the dynamic of just how she was dating 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:00.600 all the guys, because the guy's got that sense from 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:03.840 her true like they were like, yeah, she's basically the 0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:05.720 whole package. I would be lucky to be in her 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:09.119 life essentially, you know what I mean. And she just 0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:11.360 she's everything. I cannot wait for you guys to get 0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:14.320 to know her a little bit more. I watching her 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:17.120 the I wouldn't even call it a hometown package. But 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:19.880 watching the part where she's sitting down with her parents, 0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:23.640 First of all, okay, sweet, just to see her back 0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:26.480 in Minnesota, like the places that I grew up, everything 0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:29.200 is so nostalgic for me. It's so exciting to kind 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:32.000 of see through the lens of now a viewer and 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:34.840 watching her being from Minnesota. But the moment where she 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:36.640 sat down with her parents and they have this like 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:39.680 little barbecue grilled on the back, I'm like, this is 0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:42.360 so Minnesota. I love it. I'm like, I'm about to 0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:44.160 invite me and my mom over there next time. We 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:46.640 all to get her in Minnesota. It just felt like 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:49.320 to me, it just felt like comforting. It just felt 0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:51.160 like home, which was really nice to see. So that 0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:57.320 was fun, fun for me personally. But I think because 0:03:57.360 --> 0:03:59.160 and this is something that she talked about, you know, 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:02.080 throughout night one, is she had such a great example 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:05.080 set in front of her, like a very respectful, loving, 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:10.920 loyal relationship, and I think she knows what she deserves 0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:13.040 and she saw that in her parents, and so she's 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:14.800 not going to settle. She's not going to go for 0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:18.159 anything less than that, which she made made very apparent 0:04:18.200 --> 0:04:20.440 to the men that first night and just in her 0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:22.520 speeches and the way that she had her one on 0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:25.120 one interactions with everyone, which I thought was just it 0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:28.200 set the tone very well for the entire night and hopefully, 0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:32.160 I'm assuming it'll carry through the entire season. Yeah, it does. 0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:37.080 But let's get into some of these arrivals and the 0:04:37.160 --> 0:04:39.760 limo entrances showing because Tay, you were there, you and 0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:43.800 Caitlin were watching from behind a bush, and so take 0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:45.839 me back to that night. What were some of your 0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:49.520 favorite guys or entrances that you saw. Okay, first of all, 0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:52.880 this is it's hilarious, like how Caitlin and I kind 0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:55.840 of like fine little nuts and crannies to kind of 0:04:55.920 --> 0:04:59.960 hide in, and the little spot that we were in particular, 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:01.560 there was a bunch of broad ants. It was so 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:03.320 funny because like we started looking down and my legs 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:04.920 were itching. I was like, what is going on here? 0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:07.960 There was red ants everywhere. So I'm telling you right now, 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:13.599 we will do anything to spy in trying, you know, 0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:18.240 an inside peek on what's going down. But let me think, Okay, 0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:21.400 there are a couple entrances that I was really First 0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:24.240 of all, how hard did you laugh when it came 0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:28.840 to the firefighters, like the one back to back. I 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:32.559 was laughing so hard and like, god, I feel so 0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:36.920 bad for Daniel coming in on like a toy firefighter 0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:39.640 drug and or a firetrug. And he was like so proud. 0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:42.120 He was like so excited. He's like, yeah, he's like 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:43.520 I came in a toy one. But it was like 0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:45.359 cute and like she loved it. And the next thing, 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:48.040 you know, of course, like a Jumbo the real deal. 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:49.920 Oh my god. And he was like is that another 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:51.760 one in his face? Oh my god. The whole thing, 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:55.800 the whole snip was just like my favorite. I really 0:05:55.800 --> 0:06:00.080 liked the guy that rolled in on the platter, the 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:04.880 all Trey. Yes, we like Rick. Yes. Caitlyn and I 0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:06.600 were hiding behind the bush and we could hear her 0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:09.719 screaming from like way back where we were, and it 0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:11.400 was just like, oh my god, what are they saying? 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:14.840 What's going on? Like this guy must be hilarious, And truthfully, 0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:16.480 I think he just kind of like took her breath 0:06:16.480 --> 0:06:17.960 away and kind of scaring her a little bit. But 0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:20.159 it was like the perfect way to make a first impression. 0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:21.599 I thought it was really fun and quirky. I hadn't 0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:25.000 seen anything like that. Have you no. I Mean the 0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:26.919 only other thing that I could kind of relate it 0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:30.080 to was when James pulled up in the box, you know, 0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:33.320 because like yes, yes, yes, because they have to stay 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:38.240 in it all night for the most part, and I listen, 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:42.960 Rick had me cackling on the couch because first of all, 0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:45.760 I'm thinking, like, okay, think of like being stuck on 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:47.760 this little table. I'm just trying to think about like 0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:50.840 how contorted my body would be for hours on end, 0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:54.200 and how uncomfortable it would be. But to like pull 0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:57.000 up to this stunning woman and have her pull the 0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:59.479 cover off, like he definitely have the best to be 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:02.320 because he's going straight up at you know, all that 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:06.159 Michelle has to offer, this staying woman, and then he 0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:08.120 but he like owns it and he just sits in 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:10.440 it all night until they finally have their one on 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:12.760 one chat. And at first I was like, He's going 0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:15.480 to walk out and like something I don't I don't 0:07:15.480 --> 0:07:17.480 know what I was expecting, like something more when he 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:20.800 came out, like something weird still, but but he came 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:23.840 down and just owned it. And at first, because you 0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:26.960 could tell when he first met her he was nervous 0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:29.960 but like trying to put on such a brave, funny face. Yeah. 0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:32.240 But what he said to her later where he was like, 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:34.600 I know it was weird and it kind of freaked 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:36.280 you out, but like I always want to be like 0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:38.160 a fun zone that you can come back to and 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.720 like relax on these that that was the sweet moment 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:43.560 where he kind of won me over. I'm like, okay, 0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:45.520 I was. I was kind of on defense about Rick 0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:48.080 and now no, I'm a Rick fan. Well, because like 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:50.600 it was actually thoughtful, you know, like a little bit 0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:52.880 more thought came into it as opposed to just being 0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:54.760 funny and just trying to make an entrance. It was like, no, 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.160 like I want you to be, you know, able to 0:07:57.160 --> 0:07:59.160 rely on me to make you laugh and giggle even 0:07:59.200 --> 0:08:01.480 when things are kind of like you're meeting thirty guys 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:04.160 when you're dating all of us. I just felt bad 0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:06.800 he couldn't drink the entire night. I was these dudes 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:08.920 hask to just hold a cup and a straw to 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.400 him or something like he's got to be on everyone's 0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:16.880 poor man? Did you think about that? But um, can 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:18.560 I ask you can we get into one of the 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:21.600 guys because you touched at the beginning, we need to 0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:28.440 talk about Ryan Ryan with the documents mister folder Um. 0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:33.240 First of all, couldn't arn spell bachelorette? Right? Wait did 0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:40.400 you notice yes, only on the folder. Um, but what 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:47.000 were your thoughts when you found these documents? Because you did, 0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:48.679 you and call them held it in for a while, 0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:51.000 you waited a day before I would have gone straight 0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:53.559 to Michelle. I'm like, look, don't let him come down. 0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:56.360 This guy is calculated. What were your thoughts when you 0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:59.120 actually found that stuff? We actually had met the guys 0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:02.520 in day priors, so already, Like, it's not like it 0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:04.120 could have I mean, I think if we would have 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:06.360 found it that day, like on Roastremory day, we would 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:09.440 have probably waited as well, just because you you know 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:11.959 how that night is that night you already have enough nerves. 0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:15.160 And honestly, we didn't want to tell her like beforehand, 0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:17.800 so that way she is putting up a wall and 0:09:17.880 --> 0:09:19.680 meeting all these other guys, you know what I mean, Like, 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.720 I really wanted those first impressions to be real, authentic, 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:26.400 have fun with it. And so we decided to confront 0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:30.040 her and tell her about what we had found, um, 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:33.079 which by the way, weren't even like hidden very hard. 0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:35.360 They were literally sitting on the table, So it's not 0:09:35.440 --> 0:09:37.880 like he was even trying to, like, you know, be 0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:41.600 secretive about it. It was right there, um and we 0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:43.160 were like, oh my god, is he doing schoolwork? Like 0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:46.280 it wasn't really like, you know, we didn't know what 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:48.360 he was doing. And it said batchelor. I don't even 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:51.160 know how what word that wasn't to be in. I'm 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:54.440 pretty sure. But if my mother was watching, she'd be 0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:59.560 pissed because she she's a grammar queen. She was a teacher. 0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:01.920 It's like a at least spell show. You're going on 0:10:02.120 --> 0:10:05.920 the right way, man. I mean you only you only 0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:07.600 knew for how long that you were going on the show. 0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:10.080 You might want to try to spell it correctly. But 0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:15.120 he had he had deep, long notes. He can I 0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:20.480 to just tell you this so well. He was one 0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:25.480 of our Everything he said was so contradictory because he 0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:28.600 was our bachelor for Bachelor live on stage in his 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:32.200 city pre COVID. So when Ben Higgens and I were 0:10:32.280 --> 0:10:35.240 on tour and hosting that show, I remember this. He 0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:37.079 was one of the Bachelor's and he was a fan. 0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:39.080 He would ask us questions like he knew all the 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:41.199 ins and the outs. He was very calculated on stage. 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:43.000 Like so when Ben and I found out he was 0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:45.200 on this season, we had like a good little chuckle. 0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:48.720 Ben's like I can't. He's like I can't, I can't, 0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:51.080 but um yeah. So when he's like, I've only seen 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:55.720 two hours of you know, any of the shows and 0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:59.480 I don't know anything, It's like, which is right now, sir? 0:10:59.760 --> 0:11:02.800 It's also lie because two seconds later he was like, yeah, 0:11:02.840 --> 0:11:05.200 I mean like I would watch and see like what 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:07.000 she would like, and so I would write it down. 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:09.800 I'm like, hold on a second, so did you watch 0:11:09.880 --> 0:11:12.480 the show or did you not watch the show? And 0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:14.760 I'm sure micheldon just walk out of Limo saying Hi, 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.520 I love ice cream, Like, no, you probably watched the 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:22.000 entire season, made notes or looked on our Instagram something. Um. 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:26.160 It just was very contradictory and he's like, no, they're 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:29.840 just notes like nothing that would like ever make it 0:11:29.880 --> 0:11:32.040 seem like I'm have like going to hit an agenda 0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:37.480 when honestly that was all that was a full document, 0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:43.080 full detail like I mean Excel spreadsheet status like front 0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:47.880 and back, talking about how many pages women do you think? Um? 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:54.880 Probably U at least eight friend back Ryan, release the notes. 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:58.080 The world needs to see these, Believe me, honestly, I 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:01.240 don't think you actually do. I wish I had taken 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:05.000 pictures of it Heal and Field because because Jason was 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:08.720 listed on one of them, Zach was listed, Jason was listed, 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:14.920 Multiple people were listed. Also. He wrote out just mind 0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:16.360 you because it was supposed to be you know, he 0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:18.080 was going on the bachelott He was writing notes just 0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:21.040 to help him right, So it wouldn't really make sense 0:12:21.080 --> 0:12:23.440 to write what my dream girl is and have I 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:26.400 don't know six other celebrity women that look nothing like 0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:30.240 our bachelorette is that you know, maybe a red flag 0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:34.440 oh one thousand percent. And you know the part that 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.400 got me the real kicker for me, where this entire 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:39.760 time I was I was like, this guy is going home, 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:43.559 like there's no way. The part where he had to 0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:46.480 write out like his flaws, He's like, you are arrogant, 0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:49.440 you are this, you are that hold it in. It's 0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:53.000 like that to me seemed so off. And maybe it's 0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:55.520 just because I listened to like a lot of weird 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.440 crime podcasts and read a lot of it into that, 0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:02.959 like it really rubbed me the wrong way. When Michelle 0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:05.280 was reading it out loud, I was like, oh, no, 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:10.280 him home, honey. I mean like, say he wrote that, okay, 0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:11.920 or say he didn't because he said that his friend 0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:14.080 wrote it out. The fact that his friend is even 0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:17.559 writing you are arrogant, you are all of these things, 0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:19.680 isn't that also an issue? Maybe you should be like, shit, 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:21.520 you really feel this way about me? Maybe I should 0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:25.000 work on myself a little bit. Yeah, yeah, maybe queen 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:29.439 on a very popular reality TV show, it's in the 0:13:29.480 --> 0:13:32.520 bestment right now. I don't know. Yeah, it was just 0:13:32.600 --> 0:13:36.880 really strange. Yeah, I'm glad though that she At first 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:38.920 I was like, Oh, she's just gonna walk him down 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:41.240 and maybe keep him around and see where this could go. 0:13:41.320 --> 0:13:43.480 I'm so happy that she just nipped it in the 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:45.800 bud and it was done. He was out of there. 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:50.400 Did he get to drive his ice truck home? No, 0:13:50.520 --> 0:13:53.280 I'm pretty sure he didn't. I think at that point 0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:56.719 it was like, no, sir, no more plays for you. 0:13:56.720 --> 0:14:00.520 You gotta go. Another guy that stuck out to me. 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:04.240 Maybe it's just because it's another Minnesota guy was Joe, 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:09.840 which I found that entire interaction throughout the evening very 0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:14.000 interesting because I was trying to take myself back to 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:16.880 the mindset of like when I was Michelle Night one, 0:14:17.040 --> 0:14:19.600 I was in a very similar situation where I had 0:14:19.600 --> 0:14:22.280 a guy also from Minnesota, who I knew we actually 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:25.320 had hung out in a group setting several times, come 0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:27.280 on the show, and I sent him home even before 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:29.160 the rose ceremony. I mean he was only there a 0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:32.120 couple hours because I was like, we know each other, 0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:34.640 weren't in the same circles, Like, and now you want 0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:37.640 to date me? Because why I'm the bachelor at this point, 0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:40.280 Like it just raised a lot of red flags for me, 0:14:40.360 --> 0:14:43.080 and I just kind of assumed Michelle would have done 0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:45.560 the same. But you can tell when she was taking 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:50.320 him she's very intrigued by him, very intrigued by Joe Well. 0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:52.160 I mean she and minuted like she was like I 0:14:52.240 --> 0:14:55.360 slid into your DMS, like I was actually interested at 0:14:55.400 --> 0:15:01.040 one point. So I think that she really just kind 0:15:01.040 --> 0:15:06.240 of wanted to explore that. I also I understand that 0:15:06.280 --> 0:15:07.960 it was kind of like a it was a really 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:10.680 tough year and a half two years, especially for people 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:13.680 in Minnesota, and my heart goes out to everyone, and 0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:16.760 so I was really touched by what Michelle had said 0:15:16.800 --> 0:15:19.280 to Joe, like, Hi, if anyone gets it, it's me, 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:21.680 Like you just had to say the word, and I 0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:26.480 would have been the most understanding individual. But I think 0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:28.560 that I'm really proud of her actually for giving him 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:31.080 a little bit of a chance and kind of exploring 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:33.520 it just because you never know, you don't want to 0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:36.320 leave a situation being like, shoot, I actually wasn't to 0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:40.280 that guy, you know at some point, and yeah, there 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:41.680 was a little bit of a red flag and he 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:44.280 kind of ghosted me. But I think she would have 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:45.920 thought about it. I'm not gonna lie. I think she 0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:48.240 would have kind of said I wish I would have 0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:49.920 given a little bit more of a chance, and I'm 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:55.000 glad that she did. Overall, she has a great looking cast. 0:15:56.000 --> 0:15:58.400 I'm telling you every single year, the cast but is 0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:00.960 do not do them justice? And honestly, all of these 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:05.920 guys are so tall too, and what is going on 0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:08.200 and where these men come from? I mean she had 0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:12.080 football players, basketball players, like guys that was Nate is 0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:17.280 six eight, okay, m man, and that's not the only 0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:21.040 guy with hype. It was crazy like looking at one point, 0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:22.960 I think it was like the beginning clip of the 0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:24.920 Rose ceremony. You know, when all the men are lined 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:29.840 up and there, it just looked so wide because there 0:16:29.880 --> 0:16:33.160 were so many big, tall bodies, like which I understand 0:16:33.200 --> 0:16:35.600 usually that's the case, but it just looked like I 0:16:35.640 --> 0:16:37.240 was like, how many guys does she have? This is 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:41.560 like it looks like people filling up this big bass ballroom. 0:16:41.040 --> 0:16:43.920 She she she got, she got a good crew here. 0:16:43.960 --> 0:16:46.000 I'm excited to get to know them more and to 0:16:46.080 --> 0:16:49.720 see them more. I can't wait. Um, I mean, did 0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:52.960 you know any other I have to say, like, I 0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:55.440 think this group of guys, everyone is going to really like, 0:16:55.640 --> 0:17:00.960 they're really fun. They are down to like really challenge 0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:05.000 themselves and put themselves on the line like for comical relief, 0:17:05.040 --> 0:17:07.960 and it's just they're great. They're really great guys. So 0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:10.879 I'm excited. And with that, I think we should just 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:13.120 bring on the man of the hour because we saw 0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:16.600 him get the first impression rows we saw him come 0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:18.720 out of the limo. He was the first man out 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:21.320 of the limo. As you said, he is six eight 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:25.000 ladies and gentlemen, like, he is a tall, big man, 0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:29.760 but he still also came across as just very kind 0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:31.960 and sweet and kind of just like took it all in. 0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:33.840 Like he seems like he had a calm in presence. 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:36.480 Especially for Michelle. She was all eyes on this man. 0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:39.000 So I think we just have to bring the one 0:17:39.080 --> 0:17:43.240 and only Nate to Bachelor Happy Hour. Hi, Nate, it's 0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:47.960 great to meet you. I don't know, I mean you 0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:50.879 obviously notation because you saw her throughout the season. I'm Becca, 0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:55.080 but welcome to Happy Hour. It's awesome to be here, Nate. 0:17:55.200 --> 0:17:57.760 We are so excited to have you on. Obviously, this 0:17:57.840 --> 0:17:59.840 is the start of Michelle season, so you are the 0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:03.760 first men from her cast of guys to join Happy Hour, 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:05.760 so you're really set in the tone here, so we 0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:09.520 can't wait to pick your brain. We saw you. You 0:18:09.520 --> 0:18:11.679 were fresh out of the limo, the first guy to 0:18:11.760 --> 0:18:14.720 meet our queen Michelle and the first guy to get 0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:18.880 that first impression Rose. So now knowing that Night one 0:18:19.119 --> 0:18:23.000 is over, we've all begun to see Michelle's journey. How 0:18:23.000 --> 0:18:27.000 are you feeling. I'm feeling great. I'm feeling great, Like, yeah, 0:18:27.000 --> 0:18:29.679 it's totally good. I'm excited to see how how everything 0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:34.440 unfolds and to kind of just watch with everybody else. Okay, 0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:38.240 so I know I was there, Nate, but I still 0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:39.840 as much as I wish I had, like, you know, 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:41.520 a little microphone on all of y'all, and I can 0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:43.480 hear every single word that you guys were saying. I 0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:50.120 couldn't hear everything, but you came. Well, I guess I'm 0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:51.200 gonna I just want to get to know you a 0:18:51.240 --> 0:18:52.960 little bit more so? Were you a fan of the 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:56.680 show before coming on? So I'd only watched one season 0:18:56.720 --> 0:18:59.560 when I first moved to Austin. One of my coworkers 0:18:59.560 --> 0:19:04.000 and friends used to have like faschelor watching parties. One 0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:06.320 and only season I ever watched UM and you know, 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:08.800 just just meeting new people within the company that I 0:19:08.880 --> 0:19:11.840 was working for UM. And so it was a pilot 0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:15.359 Pizze season. That's all all I really knew about it. 0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:18.560 That's actually interesting. We do ask most of our guests, 0:19:18.640 --> 0:19:21.159 you know, how they got on the show, whether it 0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:24.399 was them applying themselves or if a friend send them up, 0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:27.160 or if it was casting. But it's always interesting because 0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:30.080 we get a mix. We get we get people that 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:33.320 you know, we're fans and had watched seasons and knew 0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:35.639 a lot about what already went on, you know, in 0:19:35.640 --> 0:19:38.440 past seasons and in the spinoffs and everything, and then 0:19:38.480 --> 0:19:40.520 we get people like you that you know, you maybe 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:43.439 watched one season, you don't know all that much. Do 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:47.679 you think coming on like only seeing one season, do 0:19:47.720 --> 0:19:50.639 you feel like that helped or hurt you in any 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:55.240 way going into what all is you know on a 0:19:55.240 --> 0:19:57.000 full season, because there's a lot and I know some 0:19:57.080 --> 0:19:59.760 people are like, oh you should know intel, and we 0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:04.520 people like Ryan who have pages and pages of research 0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:06.119 of what to do and what not to do and 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:09.399 what you shouldn't say and do. Um, So how do 0:20:09.480 --> 0:20:11.960 you feel coming in, Like, were you like, I'm good 0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:15.760 not knowing a lot of Yeah, it was good not 0:20:15.920 --> 0:20:18.600 knowing like a lot of like all the ins and 0:20:18.640 --> 0:20:21.720 outs and whatnot. But I mean, at the end of 0:20:21.720 --> 0:20:24.000 the day, like I kind of just figured that as 0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:26.360
