1
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: What is a Bachelor Happy Hour. It's your host Backy here,

2
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:10,239
Speaker 1: and I'm so excited for this episode today because we're

3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: doing something a little bit different. We have a very

4
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 1: special episode for you all because today we're talking all

5
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,919
Speaker 1: about Bachelor Live on Stage and I know through DMS

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: and through comments on social media, you'll have a lot

7
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: of questions regarding this show, and so I am here.

8
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: I am bringing on all of the seven guys that

9
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 1: will be on stage with me throughout the entire show

10
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,840
Speaker 1: to chat about what's to come, what we're excited for,

11
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: all of the tour dates, the cities, etc. It's gonna

12
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: be amazing. We have been waiting for two years since

13
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: COVID really ended the last leg of this tour, and

14
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,560
Speaker 1: so I'm just ready to get back on the road.

15
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: I think the best way to start this all is

16
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: to give everyone a quick little recap of what exactly

17
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: Bachelor Live on Stage totally is, because again, there's so

18
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: much any questions and when I first went out on

19
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: tour in twenty twenty, no one knew what to expect. Obviously,

20
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: we did not know that COVID would shut everything down

21
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: mid tour, leaving a lot of people with questions of

22
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: just is this going to come back? So here we

23
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: are ready to go. Like I said, we are going

24
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 1: to be doing things a little bit differently this year.

25
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 1: Very very exciting. But basically to recap what it was

26
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: when this originally started, I was co host with my

27
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: dear friend Ben Higgins, and basically what it was is

28
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: it was bringing the actual Bachelor Bachelorette show to you

29
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: to a city, to a theater for all of the

30
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 1: fans and the followers to really feel like they were

31
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: part of the show. It truly was like the biggest

32
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: watch party for the fans and a night where everyone

33
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: could feel like they were actually part of the show.

34
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: They were immersed with us. We were able to interact

35
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: with the audience and ask them questions, and pull people

36
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: up on stage and have guest appearances from everyone within

37
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: Bachelor Nation in each city. At that point, we had

38
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: one local guy in each city who was our bachelor,

39
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 1: and then we had anywhere from I would say ten

40
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: to twelve women up on stage as contestants vying for

41
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: that one final rose at the end. At that point,

42
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: the couple, if you will, the happy couple, received a

43
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 1: fun package from us to go and experience a great

44
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: date night around the city. This time, it's going to

45
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: be a little bit different because I don't have one

46
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: set co host with me. Instead, I will be bringing

47
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: seven different guys from past seasons with me each week,

48
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: and they are going to be the Bachelor, but they're

49
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: also going to be like a guide as well, and

50
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: so we're going to be able to give our experiences

51
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 1: throughout the night of things that we found memorable or

52
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: remember or like keem moments from our seasons, and really

53
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: give more behind the scenes details of what we experience

54
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: in our personal life. I would say the coolest and

55
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: probably my most favorite part of each show is that

56
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: it's always different because each city is vastly different, each

57
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: contestant is vastly different, the crowds are different each night.

58
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: We never know what to expect. It's really like roulette

59
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: with what people will say, what they'll do. There's wild cards,

60
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 1: there's tears, sometimes, there's laughs, there's drama, there's kisses. There's

61
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: all these fun moments that we just kind of have

62
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: to wing it each night, which makes it so fun.

63
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: We have a main outline for the show, so the

64
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: key moments from the Bachelor and Bachelor ide and imparadise

65
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: that we always see like group dates, limo entrances, the row, ceremonies, hometowns,

66
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 1: fantasy suites. That's all part of this show. And it's

67
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: very interesting because we get to travel on a tour bus,

68
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: which I never thought I would experience in my life.

69
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: It was a new change of pace, but something that

70
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: was just actually really fun and unique and truly the

71
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: best way to just experience new cities all across the country.

72
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: And this time I'm so ready because again because COVID

73
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: shut things down the first time, we didn't get to

74
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: make it to half the country, and so this time,

75
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 1: fingers Crossed were making it all the way through to

76
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: every city. We're gonna be hitting forty plus cities. It's

77
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 1: gonna be a wild time, but something so exciting. So

78
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: if you want to join, or you want to get

79
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: tickets with your friends or family, or even just for yourself,

80
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 1: or if you want to potentially be a contestant on

81
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: stage with us, you can check everything out and buy

82
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: tickets at Bachelor Live onstage dot com. Basically, we're kicking

83
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:53,559
Speaker 1: it off in Peoria, Illinois on March sixteenth, and we're hitting,

84
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 1: Like I said, forty plus cities in a span of

85
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 1: one and a half months. So it's gonna be busy.

86
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: It's to be chaotic, but so much fun. Again, you

87
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: can find those tickets, you can find the cities, the venues,

88
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: the dates all at Bachelor Live Onstage dot com. So

89
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: without further further ado, I think I just have to

90
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: introduce you to these seven men who will join me,

91
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: be joining me on stage. We've announced this on Instagram,

92
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: but they are going to be here today to talk

93
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: about their dates, their cities, what they're excited for. So

94
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: I think we just have to bring on our first

95
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: special guests of the day, and that is one of

96
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 1: our fan favorites, mister Rodney. What's up? What's up? Rodney?

97
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: How's it going good? Long time no see Rodney. I

98
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: have to say you, like, you just have this energy

99
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 1: that's infectious. I feel like it's just contagious, and that's

100
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: why I'm so excited to have you on Bachelor Live

101
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 1: on stage with me. What are you most looking forward to?

102
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: I mean, as you know, this is so new to me,

103
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: but I'm really excited to see like bachel Nation face

104
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: to face. You know, I think right now as being

105
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: a part of the cast. We kind of just see

106
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: bachel Nation through social media or maybe whenever we go

107
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: out and just get fans coming up to us. But

108
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be so nice to be

109
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 1: up there, alive on stage and being able to interact

110
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: with fans and do like actual meet and greet and

111
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: play games and obviously have like a Knight of the Mansion.

112
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: So I'm just so excited to finally be a part

113
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: of it and see it firsthand. And everyone's excitement, because

114
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: I know I'm excited. I think everyone'sip to be too. Well,

115
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 1: I think everyone's excited, and they're especially excited for you.

116
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: I mean I had mentioned this too separately, but so

117
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: many people have slid into my own dms or have

118
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: made comments on the posts in regards to Bachelive on stage,

119
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: asking first of all, what cities you'll be in, and

120
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 1: then being pissed that you're not in certain cities with them.

121
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 1: So to start my first question, can you give me

122
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 1: a list of the cities and dates that you will

123
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,559
Speaker 1: be traveling with me? Yes? So I will be live

124
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: from April fifth to April tenth, and my cities will

125
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: be We'll start off in Pittsburgh and then we'll go

126
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: to Morristown, New Jersey. Then from there we'll go to Roanoke, Virginia,

127
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: North Charleston, Fayetteville, and then lastly we'll finish in Atlanta.

128
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: So I'm really excited out of all of those cities

129
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 1: because they're all gonna be great. They're all going to

130
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: be so vastly different and fun in their own unique ways.

131
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: What one, though, are you most looking forward to. I'm

132
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: excited to go to Carolinas. I'm excited to go there.

133
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: I've heard a lot of great things. Honestly, I think

134
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: I've always I've also always wanted to go to Atlanta,

135
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: So Atlanta is going to be That's gonna be very

136
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: exciting for me. That's always a bigger city I've always

137
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: wanted to go to as well. I rarely ever get

138
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: to travel to the East Coast, so yeah, it'll be

139
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: exciting for me to go on tour and see other

140
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 1: cities that I've never been before. So I'm just excited

141
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: to kind of get out there and see what else

142
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 1: this nation has an offer, especially vacherination. Oh, it's gonna

143
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 1: be wild, and something that you will definitely experience is

144
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: just how intense and the best way Vachel Nation is

145
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: because there's a reason that people have watched and love

146
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: the show for close to do decades. It's like it

147
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: just brings people together. But when you're actually face to

148
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 1: face with the crowd and the fans, like, it's not

149
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: unlike anything you've ever experienced before. And I will say,

150
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: some people get pretty rowdy, So how are you going

151
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 1: to handle the fans? And I would say men and

152
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: women who throw themselves at you, who scream at you,

153
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: who want to grab you, Like, how are you going

154
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: to handle all of that? Because it's gonna happen. It's

155
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: gonna happen round to be honest, I have no idea

156
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 1: how I'm going to handle that. It's just going to

157
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: be one of those things where I'm just gonna wing

158
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: it and play it by ear and see what happens

159
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 1: and just react as best as I can. I'm sure

160
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: I'll definitely be shocked on these tours someway somehow, but

161
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: I'm glad I have you there so you'll kind of

162
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: lead me through it and kind of give me heads up.

163
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: But like you said, I mean, every city's different, every

164
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: day is going to be different, So I have no

165
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 1: idea what's going to happen next. It's it's gonna be

166
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: a wild ride, changing each and every night and every moment.

167
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: So you've been part of Michelle's season, so you kind

168
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 1: of know what this Batchelor world is like. But the

169
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: contestants that are joining us on stage like this is

170
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: totally new to them. They've never done anything like this before.

171
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: So what is your best piece of advice to give

172
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: the contestants that will be on stage with us? My

173
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: best advice is to really truly just be you, be genuine,

174
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: be who you are. That's I mean, there's nothing better

175
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 1: than that. And I think some people, obviously I'm newer

176
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: to the on support part, but I've seen it firsthand

177
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: being on the show, and some people off camera will

178
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: be really cool and on breakfast with them and they're

179
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: just really chilling Colm, and then you know, on camera

180
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: and things start to change, And I think it's so

181
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: much better if you just be you the entire time

182
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 1: and you don't switch up, you don't try to act different.

183
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: I think some people get worried about, like, oh am

184
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: I am I being weird or nervous or awkward. Just

185
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: be you, And that's something where I finally felt comfortable

186
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: because I was like, you know, I'm just gonna be

187
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 1: me and see how far it gets me and see

188
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: what happens. And so for anyone who's gonna be on

189
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: that stage, it might be a little nerve wracking or

190
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: anything like that, but it's like, hey, no need to

191
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 1: be shaky, like, let's have fun. Just be you. I

192
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:35,959
Speaker 1: want to I want to see you laugh, I want

193
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: to see smile, I want to see personality. Yeah, that's

194
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: kind of what I'm looking for, is to just have

195
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: fun and make it a night that we will never forget.

196
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: What's something that if a contestant does this on stage,

197
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: you would automatically give your roaths to them. Um. Wow,

198
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: that's a good question. I'm I'm trying to think of

199
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 1: like what would act at Wow me, I guess, because

200
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: I feel like there's gonna be some pretty good lima entrances.

201
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: So I'm really excited to give out like a first

202
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: impression rose Like, I can't even imagine how that's gonna feel,

203
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: you know when when we're out there and starting off

204
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh, you know, for my first show. I'm just

205
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 1: like really excited to do that and just gonna figure out, Hey,

206
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 1: who actually wowed me? And who just earned this rose

207
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: off the back? So I'm not really sure what they

208
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: could do to wow me, but I'm just excited to

209
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: see what they come up with because I know what's

210
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 1: going to happen. Yeah, so much is going to happen.

211
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: And it looks like somebody is crashing our party right now.

212
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: Rodney's up, I'm good. How are you good? Man? Wow?

213
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: This is the excitement I get from you guys every

214
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: single night on stage. I'm here for it. Yeah, how

215
00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 1: the hell have you been? Been? Good? H life? It's

216
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 1: going well and a month away from the tour, so

217
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: I can't freaking wait to get on that. Well, you

218
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: guys together, we're both on Michelle Season and I'm sure

219
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 1: experienced and shared so many crazy memories. What's one thing

220
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: that you guys like remember together that really stuck out

221
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: two during your time on Michelle Season. I'm curious to

222
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: see if this is gonna be the same answer. The

223
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: first thing that popped in my mind is we all

224
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: missed music, like in the worst way, and so just

225
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: having the guys whenever we weren't from Michelle, just sing

226
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: out loud, just singing all kinds of songs and doing

227
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: terrible versions of those songs and doing not very good

228
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 1: justice to those people that originally sang them. But that

229
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: was a highlight for me, just having fun with it

230
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 1: and just doing our own version of karaoke in the back.

231
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:53,079
Speaker 1: How was Rodney as a singer? Oh, Rodney, Okay. Ronnie

232
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 1: gives themself not enough props in any category, and especially

233
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: when it comes to singing, let alone. The dance moves

234
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 1: that everyone is gonna be seen on tour, Hell yeah, yeah,

235
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: he's down that way. Oh, this is what I like

236
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: to hear, because you know there's gonna be a lot

237
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: of dancing on stage. I hope you guys stretched beforehand. Yeah,

238
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 1: we're definitely gonna have to stretch. No, Rick, I already

239
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: knew Rick and I were gonna be close from night

240
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: one because seeing him at a table and me and

241
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,959
Speaker 1: me as an apple, I just looked at him. I said,

242
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 1: you know what, man, I feel you're paying. I'm here

243
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: with you. We're gonna make it there tonight, and I

244
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 1: can only imagine how sore you are. Um, So yeah,

245
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: I just I knew, and just seeing him, I was like, Rick,

246
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: just please don't be please, don't be too tall, like out,

247
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: he's all handsome, good looking and stuff. I was like,

248
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 1: come on, Rick, like here. So no, I always knew

249
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: me and Rick would be close, you know before after

250
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,839
Speaker 1: the show, all that good stuff. So I'm excited. We

251
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: sing all the time and we joke around. But once again,

252
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: as we talked about the advice, but Rick was himself

253
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: the entire time, just like I was. So that's another

254
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 1: reason why we got some curloaks and we really grew

255
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: like we did. So yeah, I know we're going to

256
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: see that on the tour and it's gonna be really exciting. Well,

257
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 1: I can't wait to have you both alongside me, Rodney.

258
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 1: It has been so much fun having you on. I

259
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 1: will see you very very soon. In the meantime, I'm

260
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: kicking you off because I'm chatting with Rick now and

261
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: I'm going to get all of the good deats from him. Okay,

262
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: I'm out. Thank you so much, Becca, I have a

263
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: good one. Good to see you, ye, well, Rick, good

264
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: to see you. We obviously had you on Bauchler Happy

265
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: Hour a few months ago during Michelle's season, But since then,

266
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: what's new? How have you been since we last spoke.

267
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: I've been really good. I actually moved back to Chicago

268
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: and I missed this city. I'm missing Midwest, and so

269
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 1: it's so good to be back and what feels like

270
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: home to me. But then outside of that, I mean,

271
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 1: I just look back like I feel very fortunate. I've

272
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 1: had those opportunities to be on show, but also just

273
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: the friends I made. Obviously saw Rodney and now the

274
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: bachelive on on stage on tour. I'm just I'm so

275
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: pumped for it. Just I've had so many people reach

276
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: out and it's so cool, Like I'm still not used

277
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: to any means, by any means whatsoever, So it's like

278
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: kind of it's fun. I can't wait to see these

279
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: people in person and just have fun with them, have

280
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: a great night, and just you know, create some memories. Yeah. Oh,

281
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: so many memories will be created, so much fun, so

282
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: many laughs will be had before we get into everything.

283
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: Can you give all of our listeners the rundown of

284
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 1: what cities and dates you will be traveling with me? Yeah?

285
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: For sure. So I'm going to Minneapolis twenty sea, my hometown.

286
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: I missed it last time I'm there. You know, I

287
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: have heartbroken. March twenty three is Milwaukee Wisconsin March twenty fourth.

288
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: I'm going to Cincinnati, Ohio on the twenty fifth, rose

289
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: my Illinois, so all my Chicago friends are be coming out.

290
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: And now on twenty sixth, I Cleveland, Ohio, which is

291
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: basically home to me, and then Detroit, Michigan on the

292
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: twenty seventh of March, so a full week and I

293
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: cannot wait to make every stop. US is home to me,

294
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: so I can't wait to meet a bunch of Midwesterns

295
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: and others alike. But I think it's it's really cool

296
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 1: to go outside Chicago to rosmat real close vibe. Also Minneapolis.

297
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: I have so many great memories obviously from the show Milwaukee.

298
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: I have a lot of friends Milwaukee. Actually it's close

299
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: to Chicago, and then Cleveland, Detroit and Cincinnati. I mean

300
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: all these things I've been to and I haven't been

301
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 1: to in a while, so I'm excited to get back.

302
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 1: You have a good stint on bachelab on stage with me,

303
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: I will say before COVID shut us all down, the

304
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: last time around. Our very last show we did ever

305
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: was the Minneapolis show. And I'm not just saying this

306
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 1: because it's my hometown and I have such a soft

307
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: spot for it, But it was truly the most wild,

308
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: fun show we did on the entire tour. Like the

309
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: crowd there was wild, it was so electric, I think.

310
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: So we have an audio guy and he had said

311
00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 1: that it was like the sound in that theater was

312
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: more than like a rock concert. I believe like it

313
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: was that crazy, Like Ben and I were on stage

314
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: and I don't even think we talked for ten minutes

315
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 1: because so many people were cheering and screaming, and so, yeah,

316
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: that's something that you will experience. I mean, the women

317
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: on the stage, like this is their first time. They

318
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 1: feel like they're part of the show with us. But

319
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: the audience feels like that too, So they feel like

320
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: they'll have a say in your journey and who you

321
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: hand out roses too. So you'll hear cheers, you'll hear screams,

322
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna hear booze, Like, are you ready for how

323
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: interactive the audience will be? I want more, the most

324
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: interactive audience that we can get. I want the wild ones.

325
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: I want the fun ones. I want the ones. I'm

326
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: want to be taking in everyone'es. You know, perspect I'm

327
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: gonna be trying listening for help you know, I can't

328
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 1: wait for a wild night like I mean yet create

329
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: some memories. You gotta do some things outside your comfort

330
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:50,959
Speaker 1: zone to make it wild and fun, you know. And

331
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 1: that's the thing. It's like you never really know what

332
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: to expect. It's always a wild card. And that's the

333
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: cool part about this is because you can't fully prep

334
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 1: for this, so you just kind of have to go

335
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: with the flow and embrace it. I mean, much like

336
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 1: when you're on the actual show, you have no say

337
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: in anything, right, Like you kind of just have to

338
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 1: fly by the seat of your pants and say, Okay,

339
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: whatever comes my way, I have to deal with it.

340
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,479
Speaker 1: And so that's what this night is going to be.

341
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: Speaking of wild cards, we have somebody crashing our party

342
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: right now. I have no idea who's hopping on this

343
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: time room, but let's find out. Ah, we got Ivan here.

344
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 1: What's up, guys, What's how's it going? Ivan? My people

345
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 1: has gone good? He's crashing our party. I love it. Yeah, yeah, definitely. Here.

346
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: I think we were just talking to Rick about just

347
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:44,439
Speaker 1: like how crazy fun these nights are gonna be. You've

348
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,640
Speaker 1: done a few more seasons, obviously, you were in Paradise

349
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 1: with me What is one bit of advice for Rick,

350
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: now that he's going to be way more immersed in

351
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: the world of Batchel Nation that you can give to

352
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: him for when he's on stage with me. Oh my gosh, Um,

353
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: just be prepared for anything. You know. One thing I've

354
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,959
Speaker 1: definitely learned over last year is that Batch your Nation

355
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: fans are passionate and uh, they're the best fans out there,

356
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: and you just gotta be ready for it, to be honest.

357
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: So I know you've been. You just got off the

358
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: season and you're probably recognizing some of that. But with

359
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: all these like super fans that are gonna be at

360
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: these shows, I think the energy is gonna be great.

361
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:21,919
Speaker 1: And uh, you know I met you and when we

362
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: went and did the photo shooting, I'm sure you're ready

363
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 1: for it. You got to be ready for it. There's

364

Speaker 1: I've been It's so good to see you. I have

370
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: to say. Thomas is going to be very sad that

371
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 1: he is not around to say hello to you. I'm

372
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 1: sure he'll be calling you later. I know I haven't

373
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 1: seen you since Paradise. How have you been. I've been

374
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: really good. Uh, you know, life's weird, life's crazy, but

375
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: I've been really good. You know. Just take things with stride,

376
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: and I'm blessed, honestly to live the life I have,

377
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 1: go through the experiences I've gone through, and then this

378
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: is just like, you know, my third year in a

379
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 1: great row. Now I guess where I'm like doing something

380
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 1: Vatch Nation related and you know it always brings about

381
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: exciting things. So very excited to be doing the tour. Good.

382
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 1: Can you give all of our listeners a rundown of

383
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 1: the dates and cities that you'll be in with me? Yeah.

384
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 1: So I'll be doing six shows and they'll be I

385
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: start off April eighteenth in New Orleans. April nineteenth, I

386
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: go to Sugarland in the Houston area. Then April twentieth,

387
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 1: I go to San Antonio. April twenty first, I go

388
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: to Austin. April twenty second, I go out to West

389
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,360
Speaker 1: Texas or we go out to West Texas and Midland,

390
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,640
Speaker 1: and then April twenty third, we finish up in Dallas

391
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 1: over at the Theater and Grand Prairie. So I'm very

392
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: happy to be finishing off in my hometown there. I

393
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: think that's gonna be probably my favorite show. Yeah, well,

394
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, because obviously you're from Texas, like

395
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: this is your area, like you have of the best

396
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: spot I think in the tour for you personally, what

397
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,639
Speaker 1: city are you most excited about besides Dallas. Oh, besides Dallas,

398
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 1: I have never been to New Orleans, but I don't

399
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,120
Speaker 1: I absolutely love Cajun food. I don't know why I've

400
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 1: never made it down there, So I'm really excited to

401
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,119
Speaker 1: try out the food. And you know, that'll be the

402
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: first one, so I'm sure that's going to be probably

403
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: the most nerve bricking one, but also the most exciting.

404
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: So yeah, very excited for New Orleans. Well, I will say,

405
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 1: I think we have a day off before or after

406
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 1: New Orleans and so we'll be able to go and explore.

407
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: I've been there once before, and we are going to

408
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: eat our hearts out, Okay, we I don't know if

409
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: we're going to fit into our outfits on stage letter

410
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: that night, but try our best. One thing that's so

411
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 1: exciting about each and every night is it's so different,

412
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 1: Like we truly never know what to expect. And especially

413
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 1: this time around when I have you and the six

414
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 1: other men with me, every show and every week is

415
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 1: going to be so different because you guys just bring

416
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: something unique to the table. So what do you think

417
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: for you personally, you're gonna be bringing to the shows

418
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,919
Speaker 1: that you're that you're joining me with. Yeah, so I

419
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: think the most exciting thing for me. You know, I'm

420
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 1: not like Connor where I'm gonna be singing up there.

421
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: I'm well, you might be. You never know, Yeah, you

422
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,679
Speaker 1: never know. I'm singing up there. Justin's got the art

423
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: thing going for him. But one thing I do know,

424
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: especially since this is like my home area and in

425
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 1: Texas specifically, is like the fans down here are great

426
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 1: to me. I've seen that in Dallas, I've seen that

427
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 1: in everywhere I've gone here, and um, I think I

428
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: do know how to have a really good time. And

429
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: once you know, the wine starts flowing with everybody and

430
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,160
Speaker 1: you know, we get into the groove. Um, I think

431
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a great knight for everybody involved. So

432
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,439
Speaker 1: we saw you Ontatious season right, and you were one

433
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: of the contestants, so you were receiving the roses. Then

434
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 1: we saw you on Paradise, whereas a little bit back

435
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: and forth, you received the roses and you also gave

436
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 1: some out. So do you feel like going into Bachelor

437
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: Live on stage you're a little bit more equipped to

438
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: be handing up the roses this time around. Yeah, no, yeah,

439
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: definitely getting that little bit of experience of handing out

440
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 1: some roses. You know, that's a different ball game, you know.

441
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 1: I think the the definitely the more nerve wrecking part

442
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: is receiving because you never know if you're gonna get one.

443
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 1: But you know, through the help of the audience and yourself,

444
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sure we'll be able to you know,

445
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 1: whittle down to you know, the top contestant each night,

446
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 1: and then it's gonna be a good time. Do you

447
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 1: think you're really going to pay attention to what the

448
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: audience is saying because you could be so into one

449
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: or several of the women on stage, but the audience

450
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,360
Speaker 1: could have a completely different approach or regard for them.

451
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: How are you gonna how are you gonna deal with

452
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: what they're saying to you versus what you're trying to

453
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: go for. Yes, So for me, honestly, I'm gonna mostly

454
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 1: just go off of the energy in the room. Whoever's

455
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: doing the most and being the most entertaining and bringing

456
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 1: good energy to the stage is who's gonna get roses

457
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,679
Speaker 1: for me. So that's all I want. I want everybody

458
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 1: just to have a good time. It's good, lighthearted fun

459
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I think if we go with

460
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: that route, then you know the top performer. Well when

461
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: I guess you could say, what is something that if

462
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 1: one of the women does on stage, you're automatically in

463
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 1: Like you're automatically gonna give them a rose. Oh oh,

464
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 1: if you can get people to jump out their seats,

465
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: then you're automatically going to advance in the next round

466
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 1: pretty much. Yeah, if you can get the audience to

467
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 1: jump out their seats cheering for you, that that'll do it. Okay, Okay,

468
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: So ladies listening, if you're coming to any of Ivan's shows,

469
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: if you're going to be one of our contestants, make

470
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 1: sure you get that crowd going. Um. I just had

471
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: to question about Oh I wanted to ask you, so,

472
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: what is something that if a woman did this on stage,

473
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: one of the contestants did this, you would be like, uh,

474
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 1: I can't, I can't keep this one around any longer. Um,

475
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: let's see if anything, Um, you know, there's not much honestly, Um,

476
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,120
Speaker 1: other than like no, yeah, there's not much unless you're

477
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 1: being like super overly aggressive and hitting on me and

478
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: like yeah, I don't know, trying to make out with

479
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 1: me on stage randomly, then yeah, that's a that's a

480
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: no no go right there. But now there's not much

481
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:07,679
Speaker 1: that's gonna throw me off. Honestly, I think I think

482
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,159
Speaker 1: it's going into it's just good, light hearted fun. So

483
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 1: I'm really open for anything and just for them to

484
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: be themselves. Really. Yeah. Well, I have to say there

485
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 1: were some shows that we did where, because of course,

486
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 1: like people like to have fun, they let loose, they

487
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 1: have a few cocktails before they come on stage. Like

488
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: there was one show I remember where one of the

489
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:32,199
Speaker 1: contestants kept trying to make out with the bachelor, like

490
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 1: in front of all the other girls, Like she was

491
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:38,639
Speaker 1: very aggressive. But I will say it worked for her

492
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 1: because for her, because she ended up getting picked at

493
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: the very end and the couple dated for months afterwards,

494
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 1: for months like they were I would say, the strongest couple.

495
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 1: I'm not even kiddie. I thought that they were going

496
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: to get engaged. Wow, So you never know. I think

497
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: I might have to have one of those side talks

498
00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: for that person. Yeah, take the lima home, about to

499
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 1: walk him off the stage. Well, we'll have a code

500
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: word so if it gets if it gets uncomfortable, just like,

501
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,120
Speaker 1: we'll have like a symbol or something where I'll be like, Okay,

502
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,479
Speaker 1: I gotta step in for my boy Ivan. Uh. Speaking

503
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 1: of stepping in, we have somebody else crashing our party

504
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: right now, and I'm wondering who's up next. Oh, we

505
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 1: got Justin. What's up Justin? You're growing up the facial hair,

506
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,199
Speaker 1: big dog, Justine. It's a little chili here. It's a

507
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 1: little chilly here in Baltimore, so I gotta stay warm

508
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:33,360
Speaker 1: and honestly, yeah, you both are lucky. Is the only

509
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 1: time that you two have met in person when you

510
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,679
Speaker 1: guys were doing the promo shoot? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that

511
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,280

512
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: he makes it down to Dallas. Got a little birthday

513
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 1: coming up soon, so Oh, yeah, that'd be fun. I

519
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: you can get for Justin when he's on stage with me? Justin,

520
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 1: I think you should fall in love with multiple women

521
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 1: on stage. That'll probably have the most chaos. Wait, I'm

522
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: gonna take that. I gonna take that advice with a

523

524
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 1: gonna take that one. Are you telling Justin that he

525
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,120

00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:43,840

00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 1: even get in trouble for it. Um, I never know.

536
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: had some of the other guys already on talking about

537
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 1: what to expect, what they're looking forward to. So before

538
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,800

540
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 1: that you'll be with me. Yeah, I'm starting. I think

541
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: it's either the twenty eight end of March, last week

542
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: of March through April third. I started reading, Um, I

543
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 1: hit Boston, Baltimore, DC, Philly, and I feel like I'm

544
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: missing one more, But I think that might be it.

545
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: I think that might be it too. Well. The main one,

546
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: the main thing that I have to tell you is

547

Speaker 1: the bank. We will end it with the bank. And

557
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 1: I think we have a day off before or after

558
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: that too, so we'll be able to have some fun

559

Speaker 1: with Thomas. Will come to that one Um, okay, one

560
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: thing that I have to bring up because when we

561
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 1: saw you on Katie Season, you were known for your

562
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 1: hilarious iconic facial expressions. Please tell me you will be

563
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 1: bringing those to the stage. They don't stop. They come

564
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,959
Speaker 1: with me everywhere. Even if if I want to leave

565
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: them home, they come with So that's inevitable. I don't

566
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: know what to expect on this tour, but I there's

567
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: only can guarantee it's my face is going to speak.

568
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,239
Speaker 1: I hope people get close ups of all of your

569
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 1: facial expressions. And we have I mean, because like this

570
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 1: is a full blown production. We have singing, dancing music,

571
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 1: we have dancers who move the bodies around and prop

572
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 1: changes like there's so much. But we do have a

573
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: massive screen behind us, and so while we're on tour,

574
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to just get a compilation of all of

575
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: your iconic facial expressions. We're just going to do like

576
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: a compilation at the very very end of this. Did

577
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: you see the compilation from from from KB season that

578
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: they did at uh yeah, Rose Today? Ever, yes, we

579
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 1: might need are coming back from part two. I'm so excited.

580
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: This is like you said, like you never know what

581
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: to expect. It's a wild card each and every night.

582
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 1: So what is something besides the facial expressions that you

583
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 1: are going to bring to the table as our bachelor. Honestly,

584
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: I'm just I mean, like people may not know this.

585
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: I'm sure they do now postseason. Um, but like, honestly,

586
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: I'm just a clown. Um. I guarantee you, Like I said,

587
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what to expect. I guarantee you There's

588
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: two things I can I can guarantee my my facial

589
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:56,479
Speaker 1: expressions and two I will probably embarrass myself at some point. Um.

590
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 1: But that's kind of like that to me. That's how

591
00:30:58,400 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: you have the most fun, you know. I don't take

592
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 1: things too seriously, you know, you keep it loose, you

593
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: keep it light, and I'm just there to have fun.

594
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 1: And so I hope people will feed off of that

595
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 1: energy and we can all have a blast. Oh we

596
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: will that there's not about it. We will definitely have

597
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: a blast. Obviously, this time around is a little bit

598
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 1: different because each of you guys, you're only going to

599
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: be with me for a week. It's not like you're

600
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 1: going to be with me the entire time on tour.

601
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: And so I think people, especially the women and the

602
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: contestants on stage with us, think that, oo, maybe I

603
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: will get a date with the Bachelor at the end

604
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: of this, and you know, maybe somebody could happen. Do

605
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: you think after all of these shows and after everyone that,

606
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: you mean, if somebody caught your eye, would you be

607
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: open to continuing dating them? I mean, never say never, right,

608
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 1: Like I'm not you know, you never know the one

609
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 1: could be on stage with you one night. Yeah, I

610
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: guess we'll have to see. I mean, come with your

611
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: best Let's see. What's something that somebody would do that

612
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: would like make your jaw drop? Wow? You m m

613
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 1: m to make my job. I mean, honestly, I don't

614
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: think there's a single act or any one particular thing

615
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 1: that somebody could say. I think it's just like I'm

616
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: very intuitive, and I'm big off of vibes and just

617
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 1: like natural organic connections and so like, as we're up there,

618
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 1: we're loose we're having fun. If I can feel if

619
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: I feel off with somebody's energy and they're in their

620
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 1: female off of mind as well, and that you know,

621
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: you just the vibe is there, you know when you know,

622
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: you know, right, So I think it would be more

623
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: of like a feeling than just like, oh they did this,

624
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 1: they did that. You know it's uh, you know, if

625
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: you feel you feel it? All right, Well, we're gonna

626
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 1: see if we feel it on stage. At some point

627
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 1: in the meantime, somebody is crashing in the party and

628
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 1: I truly have no idea who's next, but let's bring

629
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 1: them on because the more of the marror, right, Let's

630
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: have a party. James, what's up? James? My man? Justin,

631
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 1: I'm loving the beard. Bro look pretty good, right, and

632
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Uh. Okay,

633
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 1: since you guys were both on Katie season together, you've

634
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 1: gotten to know each other pretty well. Like, what's one

635
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 1: bit of an advice you can both share with each

636
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 1: other or something that you would like want to see

637
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: from the other person on stage? Yeah, Justin, I'll let

638
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: you go first if you got something wise, Yeah, no,

639
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: I mean I just from obviously spending a lot of

640
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: time with James during you know, filming and then you

641
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,959
Speaker 1: know just seeing them talking to him afterwards. Like I

642
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 1: can't say James is one of the people. Like what

643
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: you see is what you get, Like James is himself

644
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 1: through and through one hundred percent of the time. Um.

645
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: And so I mean, I'm gonna try and take my

646
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: own advice, but I know you will as well because

647
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: it comes easy, Like James, have you or yourself, people

648
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: will love you. Um And like I said, it comes

649
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: easy for you, you know, and uh for some brownie points.

650
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 1: Probably bring the Yes. I was going to ask, is

651
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:09,759
Speaker 1: the dog coming? Yeah, So I'm in works with production

652
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 1: and the travel team, but it's it's looking highly likely.

653
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 1: It's looking highly likely. Well I'm excited. I will say.

654
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: Minno was with me the last time around, and she

655
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: loved the tour bus life, like she was living her

656
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 1: best life, so spoiled. So if you can bring him,

657
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,799
Speaker 1: definitely bring him along beca. Once I heard that, I

658
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 1: was like, all right, no brainer, Yeah, I have to

659
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 1: bring him. He needs to, he needs I didn't know

660
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 1: if Batchelive on Stage was pet friendly, but after hearing that,

661
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: oh oh, I brought Minno on States with me almost

662
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: every night. Like she would she would make appearances. She

663
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:45,399
Speaker 1: should have gotten paid. I love it. Justin, thank you.

664
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 1: We will be seeing you so so soon. I cannot wait.

665
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: All right, Yes, take care by Justin Um James. I

666
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 1: have not seen you in quite some time. Obviously, we

667
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 1: spent much time together on beach in Paradise. I have

668
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 1: to ask this question because this is the only thing

669
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 1: that I get into my DMS. When people saw that

670
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: you were announced to be one of the Bachelor's with me,

671
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 1: they want to know, besides the dog, are you going

672
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: to be bringing Aaron out at all? How did I

673
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: know this was coming? You know what, I'm fortunate enough.

674
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: I obviously live here in San Diego, so I've kind

675
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,839
Speaker 1: of seen my tour dates, and I have a lot

676
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,839
Speaker 1: of cities that are just a drive away. So I'm

677
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 1: hoping a lot of friends even family can come visit

678
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 1: and included. I think we're getting some dates planned. But

679
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: I'm sure you'll see him front row at one of

680
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 1: the stops. Oh, we'll probably be on stage with you. Yeah, yeah,

681
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: he might be one of the people you give that

682
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 1: final rows too at the end. I mean, you know,

683
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: we left Paradise together. What's not to say? Just walk

684
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: off that stage with them and keep the keep the

685
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 1: bromance going, buddy. Before we get into more questioning, I

686
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 1: do have to ask you, because you mentioned you'll be

687
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 1: in southern California, what are the dates and the exact

688
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 1: cities that you will be at. Yep, so April twenty fifth,

689
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 1: May one, and I have a bunch of great locations.

690
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 1: I'm in alcohone Riverside, Thousand Oaks, Los Angeles, and then

691
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: I'm venturing out to Salt Lake City. I have Reno,

692
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 1: and then one I'm really excited for. I have Vegas

693
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: on one of my dates. So it's gonna be a

694
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: fun journey. You have one of the best weeks, I

695
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: will say. And I think you, out of all the guys,

696
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,840
Speaker 1: have the most cities, right, like you're doing seven with me,

697
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 1: I believe. Yeah, Yeah, it's it's gonna be jam packed

698
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 1: for what is it just about a week, But I'm

699
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 1: ready for it. I'm ready. Oh gosh, it's gonna be

700
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 1: so much fun. So when we saw you come out

701
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 1: on Katie season, well we didn't see you physically come out.

702
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: We saw you in the box. Will the box be

703
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 1: making an appearance on stage. I've come to just I've

704
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,719
Speaker 1: come to terms with it that I guess it's my

705
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 1: signature entrance for now. I mean, for better for worse.

706
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:57,840
Speaker 1: If I have to roll out in a box in

707
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 1: seven different cities, you know it. I did it. I

708
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 1: did it in New Mexico, I did it on the

709
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:06,279
Speaker 1: beach and for Paradise. So I guess I just have

710
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 1: to own it at this point, you know. So, I

711
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 1: mean you are a literal gift about How would you

712
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,320
Speaker 1: feel about if one of the girls comes out in

713
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 1: a box? Oh, I would love it. I would That's

714
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,839
Speaker 1: that's dedication. That's uh. You know, when I did it

715
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 1: in New Mexico for Katie, I wanted to do something different, unique,

716
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,359
Speaker 1: show my fun side. So you know that would really

717
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: resonate with me. So I'm all for it. I'm all

718
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: for it. I love it. I will say, we do

719
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,879
Speaker 1: have some dancing and lip syncing in the show, and

720
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,480
Speaker 1: so her being in the box would be so hilarious

721
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: because we have dancers in the background that kind of

722
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 1: have to move all of the bodies because there's so

723
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,319
Speaker 1: much going on. So I would love to see one

724
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: of the dancers just like moving this box around and

725
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: having like the girl pop out with her microphone. Finally

726
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: someone would be able to relate to the struggle and

727
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: the pain I went through. Yes, impression, but it would

728
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 1: go a long way. It certainly would be appreciated. And yes,

729
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,200
Speaker 1: I did hear about the lip singing and all the dancing,

730
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 1: and that is something I'm extremely excited for. It's such

731
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: a good time that I will say that's one of

732
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 1: my favorite acts throughout the entire night, is that bit

733
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 1: that group date. Okay, so this time around, we're doing

734
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,399
Speaker 1: the show a little bit differently. Before we had all

735
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: the contestants ready to go, they would come up with

736
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 1: their their limo entrances. This time, though, instead of having

737
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,320
Speaker 1: them way backstage, we're pulling people up from the audience.

738
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:29,800
Speaker 1: Like we They will come dressed ready to the nines,

739
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 1: with their entrance already planned, and we will be hand

740
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:36,879
Speaker 1: selecting them from the audience. So what is something that if,

741
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,520
Speaker 1: like somebody from the audience who wanted to be contestant,

742
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: you know, who's joining us, what would they have to

743
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: do to catch your eye? You know what? I could

744
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 1: give you this elaborate answer, but it's it's simple. I

745
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: just I'd love to see someone that's just genuinely excited

746
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 1: to be there, you know, walk up with a big

747
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,440
Speaker 1: smile on their face, super eager to kind of have

748
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 1: this awesome interactive experience and just ready to have fun

749
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 1: and have some laughs and you know, make some lighthearted connections.

750
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:04,320
Speaker 1: That that's really all I'm looking for, right just seemingly

751
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 1: being excited to be there and ready to have a

752
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 1: good night. Well, a good night will be had every

753
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,280
Speaker 1: single night. I can promise you that what's something unique

754
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,239
Speaker 1: that you will be bringing to the stage with me,

755
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 1: because obviously all seven of you guys are so different,

756
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 1: So what's something that's just going to scream James, Yeah,

757
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 1: I think, you know, even going back to Justin's response,

758
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,319
Speaker 1: it was accurate. But in a sense, you know, I

759
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 1: think dating back and going looking at my time in

760
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,399
Speaker 1: you know, the Bachelotte Batchroom Paradise, it took a little

761
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 1: while for me to kind of come out of my shell,

762
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,839
Speaker 1: put my walls down, because, let's face it, it's it's

763
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: just this crazy experience. You kind of are guarded initially,

764
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 1: and you know, I just want to be able to

765
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: get on stage and kind of show that that quirky

766
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 1: side and fun side, which I think maybe some people

767
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 1: haven't seen the full extent of. So yeah, just going

768
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: up there having fun being myself and I see, I

769
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,880
Speaker 1: see my man Connor just joined us. I was gonna say,

770
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 1: speaking of quirky fun, look who we have, Connor, Becca,

771
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: how are you? Hey? We're great? How are you? I'm

772
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,800
Speaker 1: doing great. I'm so excited to see you well on Zoom.

773
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 1: But well, we'll be together very very soon. I love

774
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 1: having the both of you because you guys were not

775
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 1: only together on Katie season, but you were together for

776
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 1: a little bit on Paradise What And I'm sure you

777
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: guys will both be together at some point, whether it's

778
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,440
Speaker 1: a guest appearance or whatnot on tour. So what are

779
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 1: you guys both excited about? Like for the other person

780
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 1: on stage? So Connor, I'd like to go first, if

781
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: that's okay. I see that guitar in the background, and

782
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: I've already messaged Connor about this. I told him you

783
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: better bring that ukulele. I want to see solos busted

784
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 1: out numerous times every night, serenading the crowd us A.

785
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,879
Speaker 1: He's a true performer, So that's what I'm looking forward

786
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 1: to most. For Connor and I can't wait to see

787
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 1: James's dance moves. While I'm doing the UK. He might

788
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 1: be in the box. Yeah, you just you missed it

789
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:03,360
Speaker 1: kind of. I have a feeling that I'm going to

790
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 1: be coming out of a box, definitely, James. What if

791
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 1: what if they put you in a box the entire show?

792
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 1: What if they don't let you out and you're in

793
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,320
Speaker 1: for two hours? No, I would be so pissed because

794
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 1: I need you guys to help me with shit throughout

795
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 1: the night. James. You remember when we fed When I

796
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 1: fed you a chicken nugget through the hole in the box,

797
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,440
Speaker 1: that was you, huh, well a few of us. This

798
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 1: is where the fenship blossomed. Yeah. Someone brought me a whiskey,

799
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 1: which I appreciate it. So, you know, ye, like I

800
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 1: was starving to death in there. We had to keep

801
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: him alive. Well, look at him, He's going from a

802
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: box to a tour bus. It's gonna be true. Blow up, James,

803
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to kick you up. But it has been

804
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,879
Speaker 1: so fun. I can't wait to see you soon. Yeah

805
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:58,720
Speaker 1: all right, take care to see James b Connor back

806
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 1: at it. How the hell are I'm great? How the

807
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 1: hell are you doing good? I'm gonna say so this

808
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 1: last time we had to be unhappy hour. I'm Bundy

809
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 1: didn't show up in the damn cat costume. I really

810
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 1: I should have. But maybe I will on the tour

811
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,240
Speaker 1: of us. We'll see what happens. I actually I sleep

812
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 1: in it every night. So if you don't bring the

813
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 1: cat costume, I'm not going to allow you up on stage. Okay,

814
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 1: well that's settled. Well maybe I'll get a costume too,

815
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: and then we can just like walk around the towns

816
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,480
Speaker 1: during the day on our three hours and just have

817
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: some fun. Hear me out, What if we both had

818
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 1: cat onesies, I'm done. I'll have to get one. So

819
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 1: I will work on that now in these in these

820
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 1: weeks to come. In the meantime, give us the lowdown

821
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,359
Speaker 1: of your dates and cities that you'll be with me at.

822
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: Absolutely so I am April twelfth through sixteenth. I'm in Florida, Alabama,

823
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 1: and Tennessee. So I'm Fort Lauderdale, Florida on April twelve.

824
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:58,360
Speaker 1: The thirteenth is Saint Petersburg, Florida. Fourteenth is Pensacola, Florida,

825
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,240
Speaker 1: fifteenth is Birmingham, alabam Ama. And then the last one

826
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 1: is the sixteenth, and that's Knoxville, Tennessee. Tennessee is my

827
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,239
Speaker 1: home state, pretty close to Nashville. Oh good, it's going

828
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 1: to be such a blast. Well hopefully for that when

829
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 1: you have all of your friends and family come out,

830
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: I have to ask, besides the cat cossume, what will

831
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:19,520
Speaker 1: you for sure be bringing with you? Well, I mean

832
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 1: it's a newsy answer. It's got to be the ukulele.

833
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 1: The UKLEI was there for me on Katie's season. It

834
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,920
Speaker 1: was there for me in Paradise. Somehow it hasn't broken yet,

835
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 1: even though I don't have a case for it. I've

836
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 1: got just this little ukulely that I just carry with

837
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 1: me or shoving my backpack. Somehow it hasn't broken yet,

838
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 1: So I have a good feeling that it will last

839
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: through the entire touring. I hope to see the ukulele.

840
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:42,279
Speaker 1: If you need me to get you a case, I will,

841
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: because that baby cannot be broken. So one thing throughout

842
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,480
Speaker 1: the show every night is like there's so much happening.

843
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 1: We have dancing, we have group dates, we have some singing,

844
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 1: and that's something that I'm sure you're excited about. But overall, like,

845
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:02,439
Speaker 1: what are you most looking forward to on tour. Well,

846
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,360
Speaker 1: I've just heard from everybody that it's incredible like that,

847
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,880
Speaker 1: it's just an incredible night. Everyone has an absolute blast.

848
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,360
Speaker 1: So I'm really excited to meet a bunch of new faces.

849
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see you, and then I'm excited to

850
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:15,239
Speaker 1: get the crowd singing. You know, I'm gonna get up there,

851
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:17,720
Speaker 1: bust out a couple of crowd favorite songs and get

852
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 1: the cloud singing along with me. So I'm just I'm

853
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,480
Speaker 1: most excited to meet all the new people. You know,

854
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 1: it's gonna be such a blast there. And I've said

855
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:28,640
Speaker 1: this before, like there's nothing like the infectious energy of

856
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: Bachelor Nation. It's like, you know, obviously you were on

857
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 1: the show and you are on paradise, but you're still

858
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,959
Speaker 1: so far removed from the people who watched the show.

859
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 1: So this is gonna be the first time that they're

860
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 1: like screaming at you, cheering at you. You might even

861
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: get booed sometimes if you sent out one of the

862
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 1: wrong girls. Yes, like they feel like this is the

863
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 1: first time where they actually have a say of who

864
00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 1: the last rows can be given to, right, Like usually

865
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:57,720
Speaker 1: you're watching through a screen and people are throwing stuff

866
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 1: at the screen and screaming, but like they're actually going

867
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,359
Speaker 1: to be able to kind of help guide you. So

868
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 1: how are you going to deal with that? Because this

869
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,440
Speaker 1: isn't your first time in front of the audience, But

870
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 1: do you think you're really going to play off their

871
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 1: wants and desires throughout the night? I mean, that's a

872
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 1: that's a great point. I hadn't thought about that the

873
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 1: crowd is going to be able to help me choose

874
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 1: and interact with the girls. I mean, I think I

875
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 1: have to follow my heart, That's what I'm gonna say.

876
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,839
Speaker 1: But I also the crowd might see things that I

877
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:27,319
Speaker 1: don't like. That's the thing when you watch back the

878
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 1: Bachelor and Bachelorrette, we get to see things that the

879
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: Bachelor doesn't that the Bachelorrette doesn't. So I hope if

880
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 1: there's some drama going on, you know, the girls will

881
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 1: film me in or the crowd will film me in

882
00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 1: and I will. It's gonna be hard to you know,

883
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,520
Speaker 1: figure out following my heart, but also listen to that

884
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 1: crowd input. We'll see what happens. So how do you

885
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 1: feel because when you were on Katie's season, Well, I

886
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,359
Speaker 1: will say more so for her mental all. You had

887
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,839
Speaker 1: a wild moment, one of those girls came up from

888
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:56,560
Speaker 1: the audience, you shared a special kiss on stage. You

889
00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,400
Speaker 1: know not to say that that could or could not

890
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 1: happen again, but would you be open to that? Oh,

891
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:04,880
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna go with the flow and

892
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 1: see what happens. I'm not gonna say us or no.

893
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:10,239
Speaker 1: If the moment's right, we're feeling it. Who knows. Okay, So,

894
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:16,360
Speaker 1: besides your infectious energy and songs and the uku lele,

895
00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,040
Speaker 1: what is something else unique that you'll be bringing to

896
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 1: the stage with us. Well, I don't know if the

897
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 1: people are going to be as excited about this, but

898
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 1: you know I'm great with the puns. So if you

899
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 1: guys give me yes, it will be exciting. If you

900
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 1: give me a microphone and half a second to myself,

901
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be making the dumbest jokes you've ever heard. Uh,

902
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 1: we need we need like a crowd grown button or

903
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:45,880
Speaker 1: something like that. Or I'm just like, oh, want perfect.

904
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,719
Speaker 1: You can make the want want noise? Okay, I will,

905
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 1: I will, Yeah, you'll make it. Or I'll make a

906
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 1: joke and no one will laugh at all. I will

907
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: hope you're prepared for I will. Don't worry. I got

909
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:05,959
Speaker 1: of advice that you can give to the contestants because

910
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 1: you've been on both ends. You were in kad season

911
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 1: getting the roses and then on Paradise for a while

912
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 1: giving them. So what's something that you can do to

913
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:14,880
Speaker 1: help kind of coach or navigate these women who are

914
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 1: on stage with us. Absolutely, this is the same advice

915
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:20,360
Speaker 1: I've really given anybody who's like thinking about going on

916
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:21,799
Speaker 1: the show, or about to be on the show, or

917
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,760
Speaker 1: just the only thing you can do is be yourself

918
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,479
Speaker 1: and be genuine. That's like literally the number one thing

919
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: when I was going into the show, I was like,

920
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:31,200
Speaker 1: this is going to be a strange situation that I've

921
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,279
Speaker 1: never been in. The only thing I can do is

922
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,040
Speaker 1: be myself and be genuine to who I am. And

923
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,080
Speaker 1: in that sense, it's not a competition because everyone is

924
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 1: their own self. It's not like, oh, I'm better than

925
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 1: this person or worse than this person or anything like that.

926
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:46,279
Speaker 1: It's just I was myself and if the connection is there,

927
00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 1: then that's magical. And the connection is there. So my

928
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,520
Speaker 1: advice to anyone coming on would to just be yourself,

929
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 1: let your true colors shine. Don't be what you think

930
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:55,759
Speaker 1: I want you to be, or what anyone else wants

931
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:59,120
Speaker 1: you to be, who you are and just have fun,

932
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 1: go with the flow. What's something that one of the women,

933
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 1: either on stage or as we're pulling from the crowd

934
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 1: for the contessants to come up on stage with us.

935
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,759
Speaker 1: What is something that they would do to catch your

936
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 1: eye if a girl started singing, busted out a tune

937
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:20,960
Speaker 1: or ukulele or an instrument. I have always been partial

938
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 1: the singers. I will say that you might just have

939
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 1: a diting straight up right away on stage. Who knows,

940
00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 1: Let's do it? Hey, I think I think I think

941
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:32,839
Speaker 1: the Bachelor franchise would not be upset about it. Right,

942
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:37,280
Speaker 1: Stranger things have happened, truly truly. Um, are you excited

943
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: to be living on a tour bus or does it

944
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:41,279
Speaker 1: make you nervous at all? Yeah? I was going to

945
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,759
Speaker 1: ask you about that. Are we sleeping on the tour bus?

946
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,000
Speaker 1: On the tour bus, we have different You and I

947
00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 1: have different tour buses because I don't want people to

948
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:51,799
Speaker 1: get confused. Yes, So basically, we don't get to share

949
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 1: a tour bus. You are actually, Connor. This is my

950
00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,839
Speaker 1: chance to tell you. You're actually driving the tour bus

951
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 1: for us, so my commercial driver's license. Wonderful. You're up

952
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 1: to date on everything. Um, oh my god, it's gonna

953
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,160
Speaker 1: be a wild ride. Speaking of wild we have one

954
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:17,879
Speaker 1: last guy joining us, and there he is. Sorry, there

955
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: you go? Why sideways? I know? Yeah? All are we good?

956
00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:28,399
Speaker 1: I think? All right? And up? What's going on? We

957
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 1: have so many guys from Katie's season on this tour.

958
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 1: It's so exciting. No, that's good. I mean I think

959
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: we had a good group of guys during the show.

960
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:40,879
Speaker 1: So and obviously we're all close, so it makes sense. Um. Well,

961
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 1: so Connor and I were talking a little bit about

962
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,400
Speaker 1: just like navigating these women and just you know, going

963
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,400
Speaker 1: with the wild ride that every show will bring. Connor

964
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,760
Speaker 1: has a bit more experienced because he was on Paradise

965
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,160
Speaker 1: with me. He not only got the roses but was

966
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,640
Speaker 1: giving them out. So, Connor, what's some advice that you

967
00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:00,200
Speaker 1: can get for Andrew when he's on stage? Oh, Dan,

968
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 1: Andrew's gonna crush it. Look, look, he's a he's a

969
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 1: natural born performer. I would love it if we hear

970
00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,399
Speaker 1: you sing on the on the stage, if you could

971
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:11,400
Speaker 1: bust out a couple songs and dance mooks not right

972
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,680
Speaker 1: now on stage, that would be my wish for you. Yeah.

973
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,520
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I can't sing, but I can definitely dance

974
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 1: one of those. Okay, we will be doing all of

975
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 1: the above. Oh, and Andrew, you're you're in Saint Louis

976
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 1: right March nineteenth. That's your show? I am. Yeah. Do

977
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:33,759
Speaker 1: you want to come to that one, Connory, because I

978
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 1: grew up in Saint Louis, so I'm coming and my

979
00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 1: family's coming. Wow. I'll be in the crowd and pop

980
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:42,240
Speaker 1: up on stage at some point. Yeah. Well, we definitely

981
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,880
Speaker 1: still have guest appearances for sure. So I mean, you

Speaker 1: guys are all welcome at any show. Definitely, Connor, it

983
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 1: has been a blast. Make sure you get your ukulele ready,

984
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,080
Speaker 1: get that cat costume ready. I'm going to send you

00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: idea of cat costumes that I'm getting, And in the meantime,

986
00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:00,360
Speaker 1: we're gonna have a good damn time. We'll get that

987
00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:02,600
Speaker 1: beauty slee until you hit the bus. You're right, I'm

988
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:10,520
Speaker 1: going straight to bed Andrew by you guys. Yeah, Andrew,

989
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 1: catch me up. It's been a while since we've had

990
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 1: you on batchlor Happy Hour. Before we get into all

991
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 1: things tour, how are you. I'm good. You know, everything's

992
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,000

993
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 1: grandma and my family, so that's like the best party

994
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:24,520
Speaker 1: of the year where I get to hang out with

995
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:26,239
Speaker 1: them and I'm not like doing too much. So yeah,

996
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 1: it's good the call before the storm because it's gonna

997
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 1: get wild very fast when you join me on stage.

998
00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:35,279
Speaker 1: To kick it off. Before we get into all of

999
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 1: the questions about the tour, can you give all of

1000
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 1: our listeners the rundown of the cities and dates that

1001
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 1: you'll be with me. Uh? Yeah, March sixteenth, I'll be

1002
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 1: in Peoria. Then the following day after that, I'll be

1003
00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:51,839
Speaker 1: in Columbus, Ohio, and then we have Indianapolis, and then

1004
00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 1: we have Saint Louis and then finishing it off in

1005
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:59,840
Speaker 1: Kansas City. Great run. So we're starting the entire tour

1006
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:03,880
Speaker 1: with you, no pressure at all. What are you most

1007
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:08,600
Speaker 1: looking forward to and then also most nervous for. I'm

1008
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:11,359
Speaker 1: just looking forward to, you know, just being able to

1009
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: connect with the people, the fans, um just to show

1010
00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:17,640
Speaker 1: them exactly who I am up in person. Um, and

1011
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:19,799
Speaker 1: whatever you get on social media, like to keep it

1012
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 1: the same as who I am in person. So I

1013
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:23,880
Speaker 1: just keep that same energy that I usually bring and

1014
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,719
Speaker 1: I give it to a bunch of different people. Most

1015
00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:30,279
Speaker 1: nervous for is you know, just probably just chatting to

1016
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,720
Speaker 1: the ladies or people have to bring up on stage.

1017
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,480
Speaker 1: I'm just as nervous as they would probably be. Um,

1018
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:38,360
Speaker 1: I don't know, I feel like this is such a

1019
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 1: different avenue for me. I'm usually playing football sports with

1020
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:46,799
Speaker 1: a helmet on, so I can kind of hide. No,

1021
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 1: there's not. So it'll be fun and I'm I love

1022
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 1: doing different things in me. Challenge, how do you think

1023
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:57,440
Speaker 1: you're gonna handle every night having ten to twelve women

1024
00:52:57,520 --> 00:52:59,840
Speaker 1: throwing themselves at you like you are going to be

1025
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:04,960
Speaker 1: the Bachelor every night? Yeah, that's that's definitely different. Um,

1026
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna try to, you know, be as humble

1027
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 1: as possible about it. I'll probably throw a couple of

1028
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 1: jokes in my group chat talking about it, saying I'm

1029
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:16,279
Speaker 1: the man. But I'm just gonna try to stay and

1030
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:18,120
Speaker 1: you know and just have fun with them and you know,

1031
00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,719
Speaker 1: give them the best time Yeah, is there anything that

1032
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,440
Speaker 1: is like off limits to you that you refuse to

1033
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 1: do on stage? Everything spare game. I'm looking to just

1034
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 1: have a great time. That's kind of who I am,

1035
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 1: and I know that you are pretty funny, So I'm

1036
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:34,440
Speaker 1: gonna whatever you got for me, just throw it out there.

1037
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,560
Speaker 1: I'm ready for it. It's gonna be so fun. And

1038
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:38,880
Speaker 1: I think the difference between this time around and the

1039
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 1: last time that we were on tour is like we

1040
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:44,640
Speaker 1: had local bachelors for each city, so every girl got

1041
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 1: up on stage like thinking, you know, they could be

1042
00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:49,839
Speaker 1: the one and date this guy. But for you, it's

1043
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 1: it's kind of nice because the pressure is off, like,

1044
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:53,959
Speaker 1: of course you're gonna be the bachelor and be handing

1045
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:56,880
Speaker 1: out the roses, but like there's no pressure at the

1046
00:53:57,040 --> 00:54:00,120
Speaker 1: end of it. You get to go on your merryway

1047
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:02,120
Speaker 1: whoever you pick and give that last for us who

1048
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 1: gets a great package for the city to enjoy. Um.

1049
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 1: That being said, though, would you be open if you

1050
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:11,800
Speaker 1: did find one special woman on one of those stages

1051
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:15,080
Speaker 1: and one of those cities too potentially continue in a

1052
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:19,040
Speaker 1: relationship with them. Um, if it was in my city,

1053
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 1: like my actual sy like Chicago. Um, I don't have.

1054
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:25,640
Speaker 1: I think that's the following unique after mine. I'm not

1055
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,960
Speaker 1: a big long distance guy. Yeah, don't like it. Um,

1056
00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 1: So if I mean, if there's someone I do hit

1057
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 1: it off with, I mean maybe we'll chat with other

1058
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,520
Speaker 1: than that, like, um, pretty much coming in this very

1059
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:40,479
Speaker 1: cordial uh like not liking for anything really crazy. Yeah,

1060
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 1: no pressure. Like I said, it's just gonna be a

1061
00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 1: night of fun of probably a little bit of drama.

1062
00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:49,399
Speaker 1: We've seen tears, We've seen laughs, We've seen kissing, We've

1063
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:52,720
Speaker 1: seen tears. Oh yeah, we've seen everything. We've seen everything.

1064
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:56,000
Speaker 1: It's um and that's a thing, like especially for the contestants,

1065
00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:59,360
Speaker 1: like everything is so heightened, you know, it's like this

1066
00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:01,319
Speaker 1: is the first and they feel like they're part of

1067
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:04,520
Speaker 1: vaterination and at times it can be scary to be

1068
00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:06,319
Speaker 1: up on stage. And that's why we just have to

1069
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:08,520
Speaker 1: go in with such an open mind and make the

1070
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:11,440
Speaker 1: women on stage with us feel comfortable. So if there's

1071
00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:14,000
Speaker 1: any bit of advice that you can give to these

1072
00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 1: ladies who are joining us, what would it be. I

1073
00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,160
Speaker 1: would just want to encourage them to just be themselves

1074
00:55:19,239 --> 00:55:21,560
Speaker 1: and be able to have fun with it. Um, you know,

1075
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 1: not every day you get to you know, go on

1076
00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:26,759
Speaker 1: dates and it's not like serious, crazy question being thrown

1077
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 1: at you, um, but also like being on stage and

1078
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:32,479
Speaker 1: watch everyone listening to your date. So at the same

1079
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 1: time like it, just enjoyed the process and enjoy it,

1080
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 1: you know, just being yourself with someone else and you know,

1081
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:42,680
Speaker 1: around good company. So I'm assuming you probably know how

1082
00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,880
Speaker 1: each night goes, right, Like, there's the group dates, there's

1083
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 1: the road. I have no idea what, Oh my god,

1084
00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:52,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to really prep you before this, but

1085
00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:58,480
Speaker 1: I'm scared. Scared to be scared. It's so fun. Basically,

1086
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:02,000
Speaker 1: it's like a condensed season of The Bachelor and Bachelarette

1087
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 1: on stage. So to start it off, we'll pull the

1088
00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 1: women up on stage with us. They'll do their fun

1089
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,480
Speaker 1: unique limo entrances. Then you go start into giving out

1090
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:14,000
Speaker 1: your first impression rows. We go into more fun group dates,

1091
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,439
Speaker 1: and in between each of the group dates, we'll have

1092
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:20,360
Speaker 1: mini rows ceremonies where you'll go from ten to twelve

1093
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 1: women to eight down to six, down to four. Then

1094
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:27,319
Speaker 1: we make a mini hometowns where that's kind of the

1095
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:29,840
Speaker 1: cool part is like then it kind of mellows where

1096
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,080
Speaker 1: you can actually ask some questions to get to know

1097
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:35,520
Speaker 1: them a little bit deeper. But we've even recreated a

1098
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:40,879
Speaker 1: little fantasy suite action if you will. And like I said,

1099
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:46,240
Speaker 1: we've seen everything. I mean, listen, it's a family friendly show,

1100
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:48,879
Speaker 1: so like we keep it PG. That's not to say

1101
00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:52,480
Speaker 1: we haven't seen some steaming makeouts in the Cabana Fantasy

1102
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 1: Suite that we make. Um. But but like how open

1103
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:01,520
Speaker 1: are you to like maybe giving these in some kisses

1104
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:06,720
Speaker 1: or some special attention. Um, we will, We'll have to see. Um.

1105
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:09,480
Speaker 1: I mean I'm pretty open. Like I said, I'm still single. UM,

1106
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:11,919
Speaker 1: so it's not like a red flag for me. Um,

1107
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:13,879
Speaker 1: but we'll see. I I you know, if you get

1108
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 1: a kiss, it's probably like you know, you earned it.

1109
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 1: It's not like something I'm just gonna be given out

1110
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 1: for sure. We have a whole bit where it's like

1111
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:26,920
Speaker 1: this lipsync competition where you and I kind of kick

1112
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:28,960
Speaker 1: it off and like show them how it's done. But

1113
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 1: then you'll probably be put on a chair or a

1114
00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:35,000
Speaker 1: stool and the other women then we'll have to go

1115
00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:39,160
Speaker 1: and lip sync and dance around you and and oh

1116
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: I like this. It's a great thing. So funny It's

1117
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,960
Speaker 1: probably like one of my favorite parts of the night

1118
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:49,800
Speaker 1: because the girls go all out with their dance moves,

1119
00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:53,160
Speaker 1: which is like hyping up you and the audience. It's

1120
00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:57,440
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a blast um overall, though, you know,

1121
00:57:57,480 --> 00:57:59,640
Speaker 1: it can be anything from going to new cities to

1122
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 1: sleep on a tour bus to just meeting people. What

1123
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:06,720
Speaker 1: are you most most? Most Number one extended about, um,

1124
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:09,680
Speaker 1: just seeing like the fans, just to see like how

1125
00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 1: you know, passionate they are and you always see like

1126
00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 1: the tweets and all the videos you have about yourself,

1127
00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:16,600
Speaker 1: but just to see them up in close in person

1128
00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: and be able to interact with them. Um, I think

1129
00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:20,920
Speaker 1: that's going to be. Like I love meeting the new

1130
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:22,680
Speaker 1: people that come up to me that recognize me. I

1131
00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:24,960
Speaker 1: think that's awesome. The fact that they know me and

1132
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:27,080
Speaker 1: they you guys, and they want to say hi. So

1133
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:28,880
Speaker 1: the fact that they come out to the show and

1134
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:30,640
Speaker 1: they want to see us, you know, I think that

1135
00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:33,120
Speaker 1: is incredible. So I want to give them as much

1136
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,760
Speaker 1: attention and glorious possible because that's that's what makes us,

1137
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,560
Speaker 1: you know, whatever do what we do because of them.

1138
00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:42,080
Speaker 1: So M yeah, ask that I'm looking forward to just

1139
00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:44,160
Speaker 1: to you know, interact with them. I love it. It's

1140
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:47,280
Speaker 1: to be a blast. It's so much fun. One last

1141
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:50,240
Speaker 1: question before I let you go. The pressure is going

1142
00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:52,040
Speaker 1: to be on you every night, obviously to hint at

1143
00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:55,919
Speaker 1: those roses. So you have to know the magic words, right,

1144
00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:59,400
Speaker 1: Can you give it to me? Okay? It's just like

1145
00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:02,640
Speaker 1: a safe no. When you when you're handed out the rose,

1146
00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:05,880
Speaker 1: what do you have to say with the women? Oh

Speaker 1: my god, would you accept this rose? Yes? Right? Ye?
