- 0:26Speaker 2: What were your thoughts when you were approached?
- 0:28Speaker 1: Uh, I mean, this is a dream opportunity. You know,
- 0:31Speaker 1: my mom loved this show. Um, she always wanted me
- 0:33Speaker 1: to go on this show. So, uh, I'm doing this
- 0:36Speaker 1: in honor of her. Uh, I joked in the beginning
- 0:38Speaker 1: of the show that I danced like a little bit
- 0:40Speaker 1: in college, but like, it was like PE credits, like
- 0:43Speaker 1: movement for men. And I did like a weird, like
- 0:46Speaker 1: chemistry and contemporary dance class. Like, and everyone's like, he
- 0:50Speaker 1: has experience.
- 0:50Speaker 2: I'm like, no, no, no, no, no.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Don't be putting no label of dancer on me. Like
- 0:55Speaker 1: I am starting from scratch here.
- 0:58Speaker 2: And what dances have you done so far?
- 1:00Speaker 1: So I've done the tango, the foxtrot, the salsa, and
- 1:05Speaker 1: the jive.
- 1:07Speaker 2: Which ones have been your favorites so far?
- 1:09Speaker 1: The Foxtrot.
- 1:09Speaker 2: I love being in frame. It was smooth.
- 1:11Speaker 1: It was nice and slow. You know, the job, the
- 1:14Speaker 1: job was out to get me. The job was hard.
- 1:17Speaker 1: It was quick. I got the, I got jazz this week.
- 1:20Speaker 1: The jazz is, it's going to be in checks too.
- 1:21Speaker 2: You got jazz, straight out jazz. You got jazz fingers
- 1:24Speaker 2: going on.
- 1:24Speaker 1: I'm working on these jazz hands right now, man.
- 1:26Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:27Speaker 1: All right.
- 1:27Speaker 2: And, and do you guys rehearse at the same studio
- 1:30Speaker 2: with everyone else?
- 1:31Speaker 1: Yep.
- 1:32Speaker 2: So do you see, so you see your competition daily?
- 1:35Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Guillermo came in today, crashed my practice. He
- 1:38Speaker 1: needed help with some rotation of his hips. And we
- 1:40Speaker 1: were working on that a little bit.
- 1:42Speaker 2: He's the best. He is the best. That's disappointing. And
- 1:45Speaker 2: he's helped with his hips. Come on, Guillermo. And you were.
- 1:49Speaker 3: Also announced as the host of this new HGTV dating show.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Let's go back to your place. So wait a minute.
- 1:56Speaker 3: What's going on with this show? There's home renovations and
- 1:59Speaker 3: blind dates going on at the same time.
- 2:01Speaker 1: Yeah, so imagine if you took House Hunters and you
- 2:03Speaker 1: took Broom Raiders from back in the day and you
- 2:05Speaker 1: put them together and had a baby. This is that show.
- 2:07Speaker 1: So I'll be taking, let's say, a bachelorette to go
- 2:11Speaker 1: look at three homes, and she's going to pick out
- 2:12Speaker 1: who she wants to date based on just what she
- 2:15Speaker 1: sees at these houses.
- 2:16Speaker 2: Just based on, oh, funny, man. Funny. And Once she
- 2:20Speaker 2: picks it, they go out on a date. Do you
- 2:22Speaker 2: follow them there?
- 2:22Speaker 1: Yeah. Then they go out on a date. You know,
- 2:25Speaker 1: I want to crash these dates. So we'll see what happens.
- 2:27Speaker 1: And and we'll see. We'll see what happens with the
- 2:31Speaker 1: relationship goes on and off. But I feel like when
- 2:32Speaker 1: you get to see a house before you see the person,
- 2:35Speaker 1: you get to learn a lot about it without even
- 2:37Speaker 1: ever talking to him.
- 2:37Speaker 2: No, exactly. And you also have your own tool brand now, right?
- 2:41Speaker 1: Yes.
- 2:42Speaker 2: Called Tinker.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Yep. Tinker, yeah, man. We just launched in Kohl's. We're
- 2:46Speaker 1: in Target. We are in Sam's Club. So it's going fantastic.
- 2:51Speaker 1: It's a great DIY brand, inexpensive tools, so you can
- 2:54Speaker 1: take care of everything you need at your house.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Okay, good for you. You also got engaged recently, correct?
- 2:59Speaker 2: I did.
- 3:00Speaker 1: I did, yeah.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Congratulations. How long ago was that?
- 3:03Speaker 1: August 2nd. August 2nd.
- 3:05Speaker 2: August 2nd. How'd you do it?
- 3:07Speaker 1: I went to a little island down in the Keys.
- 3:09Speaker 1: The Keys is very important to me. It's kind of
- 3:11Speaker 1: where I first took Tate when we first started dating.
- 3:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 3:13Speaker 1: We're down to the Keys. And so I figured it
- 3:15Speaker 1: was a good way to have a full circle moment
- 3:17Speaker 1: to propose in the Keys.
- 3:19Speaker 2: Where'd you meet your fiance? What'd you say? Where'd you
- 3:22Speaker 2: meet your fiance?
- 3:23Speaker 1: I got introduced to her through friends and whatnot.
- 3:26Speaker 2: Okay.
- 3:26Speaker 3: You got a date picked out yet for the wedding
- 3:28Speaker 3: or no?
- 3:29Speaker 1: Not yet. Probably like late twenty seven or early twenty eight. Nice, man.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Well, congratulations.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Good luck.
- 3:35Speaker 2: Thank you very much.
- 3:35Speaker 1: Thank you. Yeah, we're really excited.
- 3:37Speaker 3: And good luck on the rest of the season there. Everyone,
