But man, I give you 131 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: my word. The only thing I was thinking is about 132 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: out Jenny and Diana. They were both and I've really, sincere, 133 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: sincerely mean this, such good women that I just didn't 134 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: want to lead them on. And um, I didn't know 135 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: what was going to happen in the future. But I 136 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: think all three of us knew that there wasn't a 137 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: future for either one of us. I'm going in that direction. 138 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: And I didn't want to sell out, of course, and 139 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: I didn't want to lead anyone on. And but you're right, man, 140 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: I got beat up. I got beat to a pope 141 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: and you got beat up, right, You were villainized, like villainized, 142 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: And I was like, why is this happening?

I feel like it is so courageous 145 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: to to kind of And were you the first one? Yeah, 146 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: you were the first one. Maybe has anyone done it 147 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: since Bob? Has anyone not chosen? I don't want to. 148 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: I think everyone's at least try to date or something 149 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: like that. I don't think. I think Brad was the 150 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: only one that was just like, you know what, I 151 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: don't I gotta go. Yeah, I mean major, major, and 152 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: that is honesty. Isn't that what people want in a relationship. 153 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: Don't you want honesty? I don't want to be with someone. 154 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to be with someone like if I 155 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: had been on your show and I was Indiana or 156 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: Jenny's shoes, if if I was them, I would not 157 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: have wanted someone to just pick me just because I 158 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: would want someone to pick me because they wanted me 159 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: and they saw a future.

I wanted one forever, and I 294 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: feel like it's just so intimidating to plan a surprise party, 295 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: especially because you know, I have a lot of friends 296 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: from here and there and everywhere, and for Ryan to 297 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: like not to actually invite all the people that that 298 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: should be invited, I think was probably intimidating for him. 299 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: So he ended up doing it. He pulled it off, 300 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: but he had He had a surprise party for me 301 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: with so many friends. Actually, somebody that you guys both know, 302 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: I think, um Hailey Platt and I don't know.

And Tristan Ryan were the first ones to 330 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 1: do it different. Everybody else sort of including myself, went 331 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: down this other path, which was, oh, yeah, I guess 332 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: we just do everything that we're supposed to do. And 333 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: you know that wasn't in Ryan's DNA, and it was okay, 334 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: and Tristan was okay with it, you know, just I 335 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: was like, I got this, you know, it was okay. 336 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,959 Speaker 1: You know, well, it's actually much more authentic obviously, and 337 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: and you know, um and that pays off and so um. 338 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: But Bob, you're happiest could be now too, huh.

Yeah, 360 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 1: but I mean it's gonna be but uh, it's a 361 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: different perspective though, you know, I see all the young 362 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: parents running around and and and I just sort of 363 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: like hanging back, and you know, it's just a different mindset. 364 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: You know, my kid falls down, I'm like, oops, he'll 365 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 1: be all right. So you just have more wisdom to 366 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 1: give to them, you know. And and and so dude, 367 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 1: you know, I've always I've always believed there's no set 368 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: schedule in life, right, and so you're doing that, You're 369 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 1: doing everything that, uh to make you happy, and it 370 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: shows on your face. I mean it just shown. And 371 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: so you said drinking the water, there's no water in 372 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 1: this body whatsoever. It's actually it's wine. I see the 373 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: wine behind you actually exactly like that is a sweet wine. 374 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: It's amazing, you know, I saw. I mean, let's say 375 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: I moved to New York, I lived in l A. 376 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: I lived in Seattle.

I 440 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: really do and and so, um, I really don't feel 441 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: that top that pressure of time that tied the clock ticking. Um, 442 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: long story short, Yeah, absolutely I'm open for it. You know. Um, 443 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: you know, I think life would be pretty empty and 444 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: another ten fifteen years if I'm in some cabinet Colorado 445 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: all alone, but even a longer beard, you know, like 446 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 1: Ted Kazinski writing letters and becoming the chi like so 447 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: but no, you know, I tend to joke around the 448 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: light and I apologize, but no, just to answer the question, 449 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 1: you know, Um, you know, I take something like that 450 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 1: very seriously. And and as far as fatherhood and and um, yes, yeah, 451 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: absolutely I'm open for it. And there have been discussions. 452 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie in positive discussions about it, and 453 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: so we'll see what happens. And uh, god knows, I 454 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: can't hide it if I do have a child. I mean, 455 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: but news is out there everywhere, right, even though I'm 456 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:18,640 Speaker 1: a dinosaur. It's like you guys know everything everything, Yeah, 457 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 1: anybody anymore? So I know, you know, Bob, It's funny 458 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: because I think I'm literally the only person that's never 459 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: been on social media, right, I've never been on so 460 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: never trist that promise never even in my space, and 461 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 1: yes I'm dating myself, but you've never never been on anything. 462 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 1: It's so wow, even for so wait, do you have 463 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: people who do it for the for the bars? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 464 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 1: we dove. But but I give you what I mean. 465 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: I never even peruse Instagram or anything. It's just I'm 466 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: blissfully oblivious to right, that's what that means that people 467 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 1: are really criticized with me. I never know, so good. 468 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: But the reason bringing that up is, uh, I guess 469 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 1: Chris had posted something after we ate dinner or the 470 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: other night, because I received so many texts like how 471 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: are these people know? Oh yeah people, just a few, 472 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 1: a couple of people, but anyway, yeah, so but it 473 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: would say it was so good to see that guy, 474 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 1: of course. But yeah, back to your question, Um, who 475 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 1: knows what the future holds? And um, possibly that'll be 476 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: a loving family and and I wouldn't have it any 477 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: other way. If that's If that happens, that amazing, Man's amazing. 478 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: I will tell you it's uh, it's exactly what you 479 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: wanted to be at our age. I can't say that, like, 480 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: you know, did you get to a point and I 481 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: was I was scared. I was like, oh my god, 482 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 1: I'm starting so late. You know, it's awesome. I mean 483 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 1: I really don't even know what the hell I want 484 00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: to be doing with myself without him. I mean I 485 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: really don't like I think about what are you doing 486 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: right now? You know? Absolutely? YEA life is all about 487 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: the kiddos. So, um, what was I going to say? 488 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 1: I had a question, and see, this is what happens 489 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: when you have children, your brain does. Will you remind 490 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: me how many children you guys have? We have a 491 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: boy and a girl. Um, fifteen year old Max and 492 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: thirteen year old Blake's late Max is actually like it 493 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 1: has a driver's permit is five eight. Like, yeah, it's 494 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 1: a little crazy. My daughter is outgrowing my shoes. She's 495 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 1: taller than me. It's it's nuts. But but I tell 496 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: you a funny story. So Trista and Ryan come to 497 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: Tahoe and they bring Max. Okay, I mean it caught 498 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 1: me so off guard. Tristan, I'm sure you don't have 499 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 1: to stay. And she goes, oh, Max, honey, hi, I 500 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:56,959 Speaker 1: want you to meet my ex boyfriend Bob. And I'm like, 501 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 1: so we are going down that road. Yeah, we're doing 502 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: this we're really doing. Let's cracking off and Max it's 503 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 1: just like, hey, you could care less. And I was like, well, 504 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 1: well she's not lying, you know. Honestly, it's funny and 505 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: it caught me off guard. Trust the honest guy. I 506 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: don't even know if I told you. I laughed so 507 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 1: hard about that. Oh my god, no doubt. They're amazing kids, 508 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:36,119 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, always know they're teenagers. Yeah, okay, 509 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: So I know what the question was. So if things 510 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: don't work out with your current girlfriend, and I'm not 511 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: saying that, I'm not you know, saying that they shouldn't 512 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: or whatever. I want you to be happy, but would 513 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: you ever consider being the Bachelor for the third time? 514 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, the first let me go. Yeah, no, no, 515 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: no no. And I appreciate the question first of all, 516 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: that would never ask me. I mean, I don't expiration 517 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: date is maybe ten years ago, fifteen years ago. But 518 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: another thing, you know, Um, it's so funny and and 519 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: quite ironic. But I'm really a private guy, you know, 520 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: And and um, I'm beginning to get some anonymity back 521 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: and I love it. I love it, you know, and 522 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: and so um, and not that I have anything the 523 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: hottest just um, I really like kind of flying under 524 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: the radar hints to no social media and stuff. And 525 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: so when you open up that that that I guess 526 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: book or whatever, another chapter, man, you're exposed and and 527 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: you know, let's face it, after another ten years, I 528 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: have even more skeletons. I think. I think that, uh, 529 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 1: the court of public opinion would not only crucify me. 530 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: I mean, they would just trample on my grave. I think, 531 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: you know what, It's true, like people are kind of 532 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: cruel now, like they feel like they can say whatever 533 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: want and there's no consequences because of social media. So 534 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: I think it would be really hard, you know, thinking 535 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: about it. Would I do it again? If it was 536 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,959 Speaker 1: now and other people had done it, I would have 537 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: to say yes, because I did find my happy ending. 538 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: But in regard like it would it would Actually people 539 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: have asked if I would have my kids go on it, 540 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 1: and I can't be a hypocrite and say, well, no 541 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 1: because times have changed. But so I would say you can, 542 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: because that's how I met your dad. But in that 543 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: same breath, you have to be really careful because people 544 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: are not nice. I mean I couldn't handle it. I 545 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 1: can say honestly, there's no way because curiosity kills a 546 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: cat for me, you know, Like I would be like, 547 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: oh oh yeah, someone on this thing, Hi, Yeah, thank 548 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: you for watching, and then I'd be like, you know, 549 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: you pee, So I'll be like, oh my god, yeah, yeah, 550 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: I couldn't handle it. Well. That also, though, means, um, 551 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: you're such a nice guy, you know. Um, you know, 552 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:07,959 Speaker 1: people can say all the time they don't care what 553 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: other people think, but something tells me you do. And 554 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying that, you know, yeah, and interested you as well, 555 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 1: and so um, you know, yeah, I found a way, 556 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: like I said, to kind of blissfully hide my head 557 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: in the sand, and you can't do that these days. 558 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: And um, so I think it's a prerequisite to have 559 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: quote unquote followers if you go on that show. I 560 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: don't even know. I really don't know that. I think 561 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: I think that now for sure for sure. Yeah yeah, yeah, 562 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: So I might have one follower, my twin brother. And 563 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: that's it. Yeah, there's two, there's there's three. Now I'm 564 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: becoming an influence. Who is that? Uh?
