- 0:16Speaker 1: Hi Ben, So I was following your fiance's instot stories
- 0:20Speaker 1: this week and lots of people are wondering if you
- 0:23Speaker 1: guys got secretly married because she was wearing two bands.
- 0:28Speaker 1: What's up? I hope she listens to this because she's
- 0:30Speaker 1: going to be so embarrassed. So because it's hilarious. If
- 0:34Speaker 1: you only knew my uh sweet little uh naive fiance,
- 0:41Speaker 1: you would laugh at this. So she what happened was
- 0:44Speaker 1: she had her bands made already um around her ring
- 0:47Speaker 1: and they came in and they're beautiful her bands. She
- 0:50Speaker 1: has multiple bands. Well, so her ring that we we
- 0:54Speaker 1: she has is like a diamond in the middle, and
- 0:56Speaker 1: then she got a band on the top of a
- 0:59Speaker 1: band on the bottom, so it kind of like um
- 1:01Speaker 1: like sandwich yeah um. And it came in. So she
- 1:05Speaker 1: had a mayor had to send her ring overseas. What
- 1:08Speaker 1: she was super nervous about. It was like took like
- 1:09Speaker 1: a month and a half to two months it came
- 1:11Speaker 1: back last week and she put them on and she
- 1:14Speaker 1: wait a second, her engagement rings she had to send away.
- 1:18Speaker 1: Oh my god, she hasn't been wearing it for that long. No,
- 1:21Speaker 1: she's been so nervous. Um. So there's all this build
- 1:24Speaker 1: up and she loves her ring like so much, and
- 1:28Speaker 1: it comes in the mail. These bands come the mail.
- 1:30Speaker 1: She puts them on, and she like is in love
- 1:34Speaker 1: and so she I come home one day and she
- 1:36Speaker 1: shows me the ring and the bands around it, and
- 1:38Speaker 1: she says, do you have a problem with me wearing this?
- 1:41Speaker 1: And I said, I don't have a problem, Like I
- 1:42Speaker 1: don't care, like I don't. I mean, I guess I
- 1:45Speaker 1: don't know, like the tradition of it all. But at
- 1:47Speaker 1: the same time, if you love it and it like
- 1:49Speaker 1: makes you smiled, and maybe take it off like a
- 1:52Speaker 1: month before the wedding and we'll you know, you can
- 1:54Speaker 1: wear it after that, but I don't care if you
- 1:57Speaker 1: wear it till then. And she's like, I don't know,
- 1:59Speaker 1: is that weird? I was like, I don't. I don't
- 2:01Speaker 1: maybe to me, but I'll explain later. Yeah, And so
- 2:05Speaker 1: we kind of went back and forth on this and
- 2:07Speaker 1: she took him off for like a couple of hours,
- 2:09Speaker 1: and then a couple of hours later she put him
- 2:10Speaker 1: back on. I saw her sitting at the table and
- 2:12Speaker 1: she was like looking at her ring. I was like,
- 2:14Speaker 1: how do you just wear it? Like if you love
- 2:16Speaker 1: them and it makes you happy and like you're proud
- 2:18Speaker 1: of it, then like wear it and and so right now,
- 2:21Speaker 1: I think she's still wearing them. I have a feeling
- 2:25Speaker 1: she'll take him off at some point because I think
- 2:27Speaker 1: her mom maybe mentioned to her that, like, hey, Jess,
- 2:30Speaker 1: like that's a little like you should wait, but bad luck.
- 2:33Speaker 1: No I don't. I mean I don't think it's bad
- 2:35Speaker 1: luck luck, yeah, as much as just like kind of
- 2:39Speaker 1: like yeah, like you said, like it's a little traditional traditional. Yeah,
- 2:42Speaker 1: So yes, she is wearing her bands. We did not
- 2:45Speaker 1: get secretly married. Um, we are are still engaged. Our
- 2:49Speaker 1: wedding is still set. But she's doing this just because
- 2:52Speaker 1: I think she's like so excited. I don't know, that's
- 2:55Speaker 1: so cute. Yeah, I wouldn't do it. It's just like
- 3:00Speaker 1: a cool step to take when it's the time to
- 3:03Speaker 1: take that step, you know, Like I like to be
- 3:05Speaker 1: official when things are official. I'm very traditional. I know
- 3:08Speaker 1: you guys are, so I would recommend just for like
- 3:12Speaker 1: sake of well not regretting it and not being special
- 3:16Speaker 1: when the time actually comes to not wear right now.
- 3:19Speaker 1: But you know it's totally up to her. That rolls
- 3:22Speaker 1: me over into another question, how do you feel about
- 3:25Speaker 1: man engagement bands? Like if you got years now, would
- 3:29Speaker 1: you wear it? Um? No? And here's why for another reason,
- 3:32Speaker 1: I'm not going to probably wear a ring. I'm gonna
- 3:34Speaker 1: get no, I'm gonna get on tattooed on. OK. Yeah,
- 3:45Speaker 1: I have a weird thing I always have with rings,
- 3:48Speaker 1: like they kind of make me feel claustrophobic and um,
- 3:51Speaker 1: and like they always have Like I've never worn a ring.
- 3:54Speaker 1: I used to try because one of the producers on
- 3:56Speaker 1: the show We're a Ring Alan And I was like,
- 3:59Speaker 1: oh that's cool, I'm gonna try it. And then I
- 4:00Speaker 1: did and get give me like panic attacks. Um, it's
- 4:05Speaker 1: like your Genie braces, you know how like the Genie
- 4:09Speaker 1: he felt so free once the braces off his wrist.
- 4:12Speaker 1: It's gonna it's exactly how I'm gonna I felt. So
- 4:14Speaker 1: I was like, I think I'm gonna get tattooed, and
- 4:16Speaker 1: she's cool with it. I'm still I'm still going to
- 4:18Speaker 1: get a band and try to wear it for it,
- 4:21Speaker 1: but like it's a good backup. So no, I'll be honest.
- 4:24Speaker 1: As much as I'm excited about marrying uh, Jessica, I
- 4:27Speaker 1: am not looking forward to having a ring that's my
- 4:29Speaker 1: felt like, in my traditional mind, it's totally okay for
- 4:33Speaker 1: you to have it tattooed on. For me, I just
- 4:36Speaker 1: need an outward symbol that you are married and take
- 4:39Speaker 1: it out. Oh yeah, I'm not like I'm not trying
- 4:40Speaker 1: to hide that part. I'm mostly trying to just say,
- 4:43Speaker 1: like I don't want something on my finger, and I
- 4:45Speaker 1: play with everything on my body. I'm always a fiddler,
- 4:49Speaker 1: Like right now, I have a uh water cap that
- 4:51Speaker 1: I'll spend this whole podcast because I'll probably get a
- 4:54Speaker 1: little anxious and I'll just spin it. Um. Yeah, so
- 4:57Speaker 1: that's the big thing. But we had a uh that's
- 5:00Speaker 1: a great question, because we had a big conversation around
- 5:02Speaker 1: this ring uh and her bands, and I just think,
- 5:05Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of cute for me to see
- 5:07Speaker 1: her so excited and love this, you know, a piece
- 5:10Speaker 1: of jewelry so much that she just doesn't want to
- 5:12Speaker 1: take it off. It makes me like it makes my
- 5:15Speaker 1: heart warm. So yeah. Also, actually another big thing um
- 5:21Speaker 1: after the Easter weekend here last night, I got my
- 5:24Speaker 1: very first like real facial from Jessica because she is
- 5:28Speaker 1: opening up her spa in Denver and we painted it
- 5:31Speaker 1: all weekend. Uh yeah, but she gave me this facial,
- 5:35Speaker 1: and I need to ask you this. She made the
- 5:37Speaker 1: comment to me, and you know, she makes comments to
- 5:40Speaker 1: me that like my friends probably could make and I
- 5:43Speaker 1: would get less mad at my friends. But like she said,
- 5:46Speaker 1: your face just like really sucked up all that moisturizer,
- 5:50Speaker 1: like you you have really dry skim. And I was
- 5:52Speaker 1: like i'd even comment. I was like I don't want
- 5:54Speaker 1: to hear it, um, but question for you, yeah, like
- 6:00Speaker 1: is it common after a facial to have like all
- 6:03Speaker 1: of the liquid just like gone off of your face?
- 6:06Speaker 1: Like I feel like I had really dry skin And
- 6:09Speaker 1: I don't want to tell her that, but I feel
- 6:11Speaker 1: like I did well after a fractional you'd probably feel
- 6:15Speaker 1: like more hydrated than you did going into it. Well.
- 6:22Speaker 1: I think that also there's a difference and she'll tell
- 6:25Speaker 1: you this between dry skin and and not hydrated skin,
- 6:28Speaker 1: like one is like natural you're born with dry skin. Um,
- 6:32Speaker 1: and you have to kind of overcompensate, and then not
- 6:35Speaker 1: being hydrated means that you're not like treating it properly
- 6:38Speaker 1: with the right products and with enough water. So we'll
- 6:43Speaker 1: have to get we have to figure out what you are,
- 6:45Speaker 1: especially in Denver being that you dry climate that we
- 6:51Speaker 1: don't really know what it is. I'm learning a lot about.
- 6:54Speaker 1: She's gonna get you covered. Apparently you said that Jess.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Is that Jess said your skin was fed up? Are
- 7:02Speaker 1: you sure she didn't mean like it sucked all the
- 7:03Speaker 1: hydration into it because it was so thirsty. Yeah, I
- 7:07Speaker 1: think that's where she meant. I don't really know the
- 7:09Speaker 1: skin stuff. Actually, obviously gonna I'm gonna be learning a lot.
- 7:13Speaker 1: And she knows so much. I mean, she's always talking
- 7:16Speaker 1: about skin and my friends. Now, all my guy friends
- 7:19Speaker 1: have these like pimples and stuff on their face, and
- 7:21Speaker 1: it's hilarious because like when they're alone with just like
- 7:24Speaker 1: the two of us, they'll be like, hey, uh, Jess,
- 7:27Speaker 1: I know this is weird, but like, can you look
- 7:29Speaker 1: at the spot on my face? I'm about to do
- 7:31Speaker 1: the same thing. Because that girl, she's good and she's
- 7:35Speaker 1: got magic hands. Well reminded remind the listeners where they
- 7:38Speaker 1: can book her. It's gonna be called, uh, just Skin
- 7:44Speaker 1: Denver or just Skin Denver um. And then it's She's
- 7:49Speaker 1: open up a spat on South Pearl Street, which is
- 7:51Speaker 1: an awesome little area down just south of the city. Huge,
- 7:56Speaker 1: huge deal for her. So, yeah, we painted all weekend.
- 7:59Speaker 1: I have paint in the oddest of places. I don't
- 8:01Speaker 1: know if you've ever painted, like ceilings and trim. I've
- 8:05Speaker 1: painted an arm all before. Yeah, eyebrows and everything. Uh well, hey,
- 8:10Speaker 1: that's enough about that. Actually, we got a good podcast
- 8:13Speaker 1: coming up. We got Heather Martin coming on in just
- 8:15Speaker 1: a bit. We also have the guys from this upcoming
- 8:18Speaker 1: season released. We're gonna dive into all of this um

- 8:25Speaker 1: one break and we come back. We're gonna break down
- 8:27Speaker 1: Katie Thurston's men along with talking to Heather Martin Ashley.
- 8:41Speaker 1: We're gonna do this a few times on this podcast,
- 8:44Speaker 1: but today is what we call our first Reactions, which
- 8:47Speaker 1: is the most judgmental, um most surface level thing that
- 8:52Speaker 1: we probably ever do on this podcast. I'm sure I
- 8:54Speaker 1: do more. Uh, but we're gonna read their names where
- 8:58Speaker 1: they're from and we have their pictures pulled up here.

- 9:11Speaker 1: be watching as the Bachelorette rolls out just a few
- 9:14Speaker 1: short months. Actually, we're gonna start here with Tray. Tray
- 9:17Speaker 1: he's from Covington, Georgia. Yeah, and you guys, I want

- 10:52Speaker 1: That's my thought. We got Brandon twenty six from mo King, Kinga, Illinois. Okay.
- 11:00Speaker 1: He kind of reminds me of Francine from Arthur in

- 11:07Speaker 1: He uh, he has a story to tell. I'm saying
- 11:11Speaker 1: that because of his necklace with a ring on it
- 11:14Speaker 1: that represents something that he's wearing in this picture. Oh

- 12:34Speaker 1: and I'm trying to look at it. I originally thought
- 12:37Speaker 1: this picture had him with a shirt on with a
- 12:38Speaker 1: bunch of hearts on it, and I was like, oh, no,

- 12:56Speaker 1: I'm saying the same thing as I said earlier. I
- 12:58Speaker 1: don't think we hear much from him. I think he's

- 17:53Speaker 1: with my buddies when I'm trying to make a statement.
- 17:55Speaker 1: He's wearing that shirt, uh to be cool. Uh. So
- 18:00Speaker 1: take that for what you will. Um. Carl thirty three, Miami, Florida.
- 18:04Speaker 1: I don't have much to say about him. Um, there's
- 18:08Speaker 1: a lot left unknown from this picture. Way to just
- 18:12Speaker 1: take it to another level. Yeah, we got Kyle from
- 18:18Speaker 1: Sarah Sota, Florida. Nice enough boy next door's Yeah, he's one.
- 18:29Speaker 1: He's wearing one of those shirts. I like wearing them.
- 18:31Speaker 1: They're like like the yeah is that what they're called?
- 18:34Speaker 1: Like they they're like long underwear material. Uh like Jared's
- 18:38Speaker 1: favorite kind of shirt too. Yeah, and and any time
- 18:41Speaker 1: a guy wears that shirt, Um, you know he likes
- 18:43Speaker 1: to be comfortable. Uh, you know, he feels good in
- 18:46Speaker 1: his own skin. Like that guy is more about comfort
- 18:48Speaker 1: than he is about fashion. And I respect him. I
- 18:51Speaker 1: respect that Landed twenty five, Bakersfield, California. I take back
- 18:56Speaker 1: that the other guy needs a haircut. This guy needs
- 18:58Speaker 1: to figure out his hair situation. And more terrible tan
- 19:01Speaker 1: lines on this fellow because he wears about tin bracelets.
- 19:04Speaker 1: Uh so his wrists are pure white, uh, never getting
- 19:09Speaker 1: a tan, especially in New Mexico. Marcus thirty, Vancouver, Washington.
- 19:13Speaker 1: He's sweet too. I really like his look. Yeah, he's
- 19:16Speaker 1: he's gonna be around a while. I kind of, like
- 19:17Speaker 1: I said earlier, this picture doesn't do this guy justice.
- 19:20Speaker 1: Like it's a good picture. He's smiling you put it
- 19:23Speaker 1: on your LinkedIn all those things. But when you get
- 19:26Speaker 1: to know him, I think we're gonna like him. Marty
- 19:30Speaker 1: from Reno, Nevada. This guy is like rad as our
- 19:35Speaker 1: producer Amy would say, like he's got edge and um,
- 19:38Speaker 1: he looks like he could be like from another era
- 19:40Speaker 1: with his style. He's wearing. I think it's a flower
- 19:43Speaker 1: ear ring. And when people do that, I automatically like
- 19:46Speaker 1: get nervous around them. And here's why, because they're just
- 19:50Speaker 1: cooler than me. Like if you can wearing feather a
- 19:55Speaker 1: feather earring. When I see somebody wearing a feather earring,
- 19:58Speaker 1: my like my social anxiety heightens because I go, there's
- 20:02Speaker 1: no way I'm cool enough for this person. And we'll
- 20:05Speaker 1: look at his rings. Ben, they must be making you
- 20:07Speaker 1: very costrophobic. Yeah a lot. Michael A thirty six from Akron, Ohio.
- 20:14Speaker 1: Oh man, this guy is going to just really struggle
- 20:17Speaker 1: to stay around, Like he's the one that pleads to
- 20:19Speaker 1: stay when there's it's just not happening. Yeah, I mean
- 20:22Speaker 1: he's he's on the older side of this cast. He's
- 20:27Speaker 1: I mean that has to play with you a little bit, right,
- 20:29Speaker 1: Like to be the oldest person in the house. He's
- 20:32Speaker 1: not the oldest, but he's tied. Yeah, so I would
- 20:36Speaker 1: see the same thing. Um. Moving on then to Mike
- 20:39Speaker 1: p thirty one from Surprise, Arizona. He's fine. Um. I
- 20:44Speaker 1: wonder if religion is going to comp with him because
- 20:47Speaker 1: he's really sporting the cross necklace. Yeah, it's it's you know, Yeah,
- 20:51Speaker 1: the cross necklace is hanging out. I mean it looks
- 20:55Speaker 1: like and he's got a band too. Yeah, it looks
- 20:59Speaker 1: like to me. Um, this guy falls asleep with his
- 21:02Speaker 1: teeth teeth whiteners on. Um, which is never fun. If
- 21:06Speaker 1: you've ever done that, it really gets the It really
- 21:08Speaker 1: get gets the gums going. They gonna get sensitive. We
- 21:12Speaker 1: get Courtney twenty six from Arlington, Texas. Courtney spells his
- 21:16Speaker 1: name very interestingly Courtney, which is kind of cool. Um.
- 21:23Speaker 1: He definitely doesn't know how to pose for a photo.
- 21:25Speaker 1: He's even got a little stomach showing mid drif. Yeah,
- 21:31Speaker 1: well there you go. HU who doesn't who doesn't love
- 21:33Speaker 1: a little mid drift? Tanner twenty eight from del Mar, California. Oh, Tanner,
- 21:39Speaker 1: I wonder how Tanner feels about there being another Tanner.
- 21:42Speaker 1: I don't know that this guy is going to stick
- 21:44Speaker 1: around very long, we'll see. He's a sweet dude. Age.
- 21:48Speaker 1: He's a little dorky, little dorky who doesn't love a
- 21:51Speaker 1: little dorky loves a little dorky. Tom s from San Diego, California.
- 21:58Speaker 1: He looks very confident. He could be like one of
- 22:01Speaker 1: those guys that like borders between confident and cocky. Yeah,
- 22:05Speaker 1: he knows how to pose for a photo. He has
- 22:06Speaker 1: very tight pants on, and he's not facing the camera right,
- 22:10Speaker 1: so he's kind of sitting to the side, which is
- 22:12Speaker 1: always a strong move because if you face the camera
- 22:15Speaker 1: with tight pants on, it just gets awkward. Um. But
- 22:18Speaker 1: it's almost as if he's trying to draw attention to
- 22:20Speaker 1: his package area by having his hands there. Well, Hey,
- 22:25Speaker 1: confident Thomas. Thomas is confident. Trade twenty six from coming
- 22:29Speaker 1: to Georgia. Another friendly face. I don't know that this
- 22:32Speaker 1: guy has a face that we can't like, Like, I
- 22:34Speaker 1: don't know this face can belong to a personality that
- 22:37Speaker 1: we don't like. Another big Paradise guy. I feel like
- 22:39Speaker 1: he's gonna do really well in Paradise. We're gonna even
- 22:41Speaker 1: know him better, uh, and we're really going to fall
- 22:44Speaker 1: in love with him. Victor thirty two from Galveston, Texas.
- 22:47Speaker 1: It looks like a salt of the earth type man.
- 22:50Speaker 1: I feel like he works with his hands. He's got
- 22:53Speaker 1: some crow's feet in a very full beard. He reminds
- 22:59Speaker 1: me again like it's almost like a Sean Booth like vibe.
- 23:04Speaker 1: Even though like I don't think this guy is attractive
- 23:06Speaker 1: as shan. He has an alligator skin belt on, which
- 23:10Speaker 1: makes me think that fashion is important. If you, if
- 23:13Speaker 1: you could scroll down on this photo, I bet he
- 23:14Speaker 1: has cowboy boots on to match his alligator skin belt.
- 23:20Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of alligators. If you don't know
- 23:23Speaker 1: this about me, they're they're my favorite. Which actually you
- 23:26Speaker 1: do know about me because you got me. You sent
- 23:29Speaker 1: me a Crocodile's still sitting right beside me right now. Stop,
- 23:32Speaker 1: is it like on your mantle? Hold up, let me
- 23:35Speaker 1: get it here? You have it in arms reach. That's
- 23:39Speaker 1: so sweet. Oh my god, all that's so sweet. Yeah,
- 23:45Speaker 1: it's a big deal for me. When Ashley I can
- 23:48Speaker 1: Eddie sends you a gift, you keep it. I mean
- 23:52Speaker 1: I wish I would have got it signed on the
- 23:54Speaker 1: belly region um, but I can always say when all
- 23:58Speaker 1: my friends come over there like, oh, sweet crocodiles, say,
- 24:00Speaker 1: you know who sent me that? Ashley I Connetti, Yes,
- 24:03Speaker 1: the Ashley I Connetti. Uh, sweet, sweet sweet Ashley. That's
- 24:08Speaker 1: all the guys. Here's my first take on these dudes.
- 24:11Speaker 1: I think it might be the best looking group of
- 24:14Speaker 1: men that I've seen going into a show, uh in
- 24:18Speaker 1: a long time. I would concur like, you know how
- 24:21Speaker 1: the past couple of seasons, just based on the initial pictures,
- 24:25Speaker 1: we've been like, ohre so and so, like it's like
- 24:29Speaker 1: the greatest looking much and then they always turned out
- 24:31Speaker 1: to be very nice looking on TV. This season, I'm
- 24:34Speaker 1: looking at these photos and I don't feel an initial
- 24:37Speaker 1: bad for Katie, Like, if this is what they look
- 24:40Speaker 1: like in the pictures, they're going to look even better
- 24:42Speaker 1: in real life, you hope. So right, Like that's what
- 24:44Speaker 1: we're thinking because it's traditionally the way. I mean, I
- 24:46Speaker 1: remember when Hannah Brown season came out and we're like, WHOA,
- 24:49Speaker 1: what is going on? And then the end up being
- 24:51Speaker 1: some like really good looking dudes and it all makes
- 24:54Speaker 1: sense in the end, Uh, super nice looking guys uh
- 24:58Speaker 1: from all over the US, a wide age range. I
- 25:02Speaker 1: think that's one thing that people are going to continue
- 25:03Speaker 1: to pay attention to um. The age range here on
- 25:07Speaker 1: Katie's season is pretty wide. We have like, what twenty,
- 25:11Speaker 1: what's the I think it's I think it's thirty six,
- 25:14Speaker 1: which is good and very similar to Clarentatious season, except
- 25:18Speaker 1: for Katie smack in the middle of those ages. I
- 25:20Speaker 1: think she studied one or thirty two, so it'll so
- 25:23Speaker 1: I think it's all great and age appropriate for Not
- 25:25Speaker 1: that I can determine what is age appropriate for her,
- 25:28Speaker 1: She can choose whatever she wants, but like, I think
- 25:30Speaker 1: those that's the angine I would be interested in if
- 25:34Speaker 1: I would go thirty. In a fact, lret well, it
- 25:36Speaker 1: looks like that's the majority of the cast. Of course,
- 25:38Speaker 1: we don't know who's confirmed until ABC releases it to
- 25:40Speaker 1: the website, so we will update to you when that
- 25:44Speaker 1: comes out. Anyway, we have one girl here in the
- 25:47Speaker 1: waiting room. Should we take a break and let and
- 25:50Speaker 1: let the anticipation simmer or the right in? No, Heather
- 25:54Speaker 1: Martin will be coming on right after the break. Here's
- 25:57Speaker 1: the thing, Ashley is going to grill her for everything
- 26:00Speaker 1: and good that happened on her time during Matt James
- 26:04Speaker 1: season of the Bachelor. We'll be back with almost famous podcasts.
- 26:17Speaker 1: All right, it's the moment that we've all been waiting
- 26:20Speaker 1: for since we got news last night that you were
- 26:23Speaker 1: coming on. Heather, thanks for being here. We have more
- 26:28Speaker 1: questions for you than I feel like we've had for
- 26:31Speaker 1: guests in a long time. Burning questions, you know, like
- 26:35Speaker 1: behind the scenes questions. We had a great conversation with
- 26:38Speaker 1: Joe Park last week. We made so many questions for
- 26:40Speaker 1: him and love him so much, but we we got
- 26:42Speaker 1: a lot of Bachelor related questions for you. I'm nervous
- 26:46Speaker 1: and I'm sorry. Have you done an interview? Since this
- 26:49Speaker 1: is my first interview, we feel very privileged. Yes, of course,
- 26:54Speaker 1: you guys are always first. So okay, so it's hey,
- 27:00Speaker 1: guess back, when did you start having the initial thoughts
- 27:05Speaker 1: to possibly want to go on that season? Or were
- 27:09Speaker 1: you trying to meet him off camera first? So no,
- 27:13Speaker 1: to be honest, so and all, okay, So back up
- 27:16Speaker 1: it all started. Um, So, Hannah obviously was really good
- 27:20Speaker 1: friends with Matt and she quarantined with them, the whole
- 27:23Speaker 1: quarantine crew thing, and then she went back to Alabama
- 27:26Speaker 1: and then she was like transitioning to l A. So
- 27:28Speaker 1: she was gonna move to l A. But she's like, Hey,
- 27:29Speaker 1: can I come stay with you in San Diego for
- 27:31Speaker 1: a couple of weeks And I was like, yeah, of course.
- 27:33Speaker 1: So that was at like first of July or like
- 27:36Speaker 1: the thirtieth of June, and she came and literally the
- 27:39Speaker 1: first thing she said, like we had talked, but like
- 27:41Speaker 1: small talk. We hadn't talked to anything about that really,
- 27:44Speaker 1: But when she got to my house, the first thing
- 27:46Speaker 1: she said, She's like, Oh my goodness, Heather, like you
- 27:49Speaker 1: and Matt would be such an amazing match. Like it's crazy,
- 27:52Speaker 1: like you would really like him and he would really
- 27:54Speaker 1: like you. Like it's just like she was like had
- 27:55Speaker 1: like an epiphany almost, um. And I was like, oh,
- 27:59Speaker 1: really like and think much about it. I never really
- 28:01Speaker 1: I know he would already at that point he was
- 28:03Speaker 1: already announced because announced as bachelor. I was just like, oh,
- 28:06Speaker 1: like dang it, Like that's a bumber, but like I
- 28:08Speaker 1: didn't really think much about it. Um. And then throughout
- 28:13Speaker 1: those couple of weeks that she was here, she just
- 28:15Speaker 1: like continued to talk about him and like talk about
- 28:17Speaker 1: her time there, because like that was like a lot
- 28:19Speaker 1: of her life, you know, the past few months, um,
- 28:22Speaker 1: and the more she talked about it, She's like, dang,
- 28:24Speaker 1: Like she was so passionate about it, and it got
- 28:27Speaker 1: me like, okay, wait, I started like thinking about it,
- 28:29Speaker 1: and then like, that's really rare for like her to
- 28:33Speaker 1: really say anything, because she wasn't. She's not just like
- 28:35Speaker 1: this like matchmaker that tries to do it all the time.
- 28:37Speaker 1: Like when she said something, she like means it. So
- 28:38Speaker 1: I was like, dang it, like that's such a bummer.
- 28:42Speaker 1: Were you attracted to him? Yeah, I was attracted to him.
- 28:45Speaker 1: I just hadn't like the fact that he was the Bachelor,
- 28:48Speaker 1: like he was already just like I didn't think, oh,
- 28:51Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back on the Bachelor. I think that
- 28:52Speaker 1: just wasn't even like a possibility in my brain. I
- 28:55Speaker 1: never even went there, so I just didn't think about it.
- 28:57Speaker 1: But I was like, dang it, it's really rare or
- 29:00Speaker 1: from for someone one of my really good friends who
- 29:02Speaker 1: knows me so well to think that there's a guy
- 29:04Speaker 1: out the guy that she knows really well that would
- 29:06Speaker 1: be really good match and like all the qualities and
- 29:09Speaker 1: faith and just everything about us. Um So it was
- 29:13Speaker 1: just like kind of a bummer. But I still again
- 29:15Speaker 1: wasn't like I didn't know him. I didn't really, I
- 29:18Speaker 1: just knew what like she talked about him, and I
- 29:20Speaker 1: was just like dang. But then she continued to continue,
- 29:23Speaker 1: like over the next couple of months, and she continued
- 29:26Speaker 1: to talk about him, and I was like, she's like, hello,
- 29:29Speaker 1: what if you just went on the show? And I
- 29:30Speaker 1: was like no, like at first, like like there's no
- 29:34Speaker 1: way I'm going back on that, Like it just there
- 29:36Speaker 1: wasn't even like a thing I could think about. And
- 29:39Speaker 1: then yeah, and then just the way the second out
- 29:43Speaker 1: of all of this time, because it's like over almost
- 29:47Speaker 1: this span of months, why didn't she say, let me
- 29:50Speaker 1: get you on face time with him, or let me
- 29:52Speaker 1: or like maybe we'll go see him if he's in
- 29:54Speaker 1: l A doing press or something like that. Why didn't
- 29:57Speaker 1: she try to at least have you guys meet in
- 29:59Speaker 1: person so that if there really was enough of a
- 30:01Speaker 1: chemistry and connection that you could go on the show
- 30:04Speaker 1: and he'd be really accepting of it. So I did,
- 30:09Speaker 1: like she was on facetome with him, like I said, Hi, Um,
- 30:12Speaker 1: she didn't want to like impo, like she didn't want
- 30:15Speaker 1: to say anything, and she's like there was anything to
- 30:17Speaker 1: happen like I don't want to like say anything, but
- 30:19Speaker 1: she kept telling him the same thing, and I think, um,
- 30:23Speaker 1: he he just didn't know me as well. So it
- 30:25Speaker 1: was just like a thing that we didn't want to meet.
- 30:27Speaker 1: He was gonna come to l A and I wanted to.
- 30:29Speaker 1: She was like come up and see him, and then
- 30:30Speaker 1: he didn't end up coming and seeing her, So they
- 30:32Speaker 1: didn't see each other at that point. Um, And by
- 30:35Speaker 1: the time I was actually like serious about it, it
- 30:37Speaker 1: was like it was already like he was like going
- 30:42Speaker 1: out to be filming, so um so side saying hi
- 30:46Speaker 1: on FaceTime, no real meeting. Yeah, no, okay, that was it.
- 30:54Speaker 1: It's uh, it's it's a weird time too, because you know,
- 30:56Speaker 1: Becky Tilly came on on my season and I'd met
- 31:00Speaker 1: her once in passing, and I was like, you know,
- 31:03Speaker 1: but I was going to be the bachelor, and so
- 31:05Speaker 1: at the same time, you're like, hey, this is weird,
- 31:08Speaker 1: but if there's something here, just come on the show,
- 31:11Speaker 1: because you kind of have that, like I guess, the
- 31:13Speaker 1: selfish desire of like I don't I don't know, like
- 31:15Speaker 1: I want to give this a tribe being a bachelor
- 31:18Speaker 1: and try to day at the same time. So then
- 31:21Speaker 1: you decide at some point to go onto this season, right,
- 31:26Speaker 1: how nervous point? Yeah? How and and how nervous were you?
- 31:30Speaker 1: Like what's going through your head? Um? So yeah, at
- 31:35Speaker 1: the point I started. So I started at that point
- 31:37Speaker 1: when I was like, Okay, I really need to meet
- 31:38Speaker 1: this guy. It was like I'm gonna regret it if
- 31:41Speaker 1: I don't like wait, I was like, what am I
- 31:43Speaker 1: gonna work out more? And so I was like, so
- 31:44Speaker 1: then I started like trying to reach out and talking
- 31:47Speaker 1: to you know, producers and stuff, and then, um, I
- 31:52Speaker 1: was terrified, Like I was absolutely terrified. I was like,
- 31:56Speaker 1: there's no way I can do this again. And I know,
- 31:58Speaker 1: like I wouldn't be coming in like I knew what
- 32:01Speaker 1: it wasn't gonna be like open arms welcoming in and
- 32:04Speaker 1: also just like going through that whole thing again, like
- 32:06Speaker 1: it's really not like my natural personality to do that
- 32:10Speaker 1: this kind of thing. Um, So I was really I
- 32:13Speaker 1: was really terrified. But I literally was just like motto
- 32:18Speaker 1: was like everything that I'm afraid of doing, I just
- 32:21Speaker 1: have to like do it anyways and just like be
- 32:23Speaker 1: bold and like I'm like, what am I going to
- 32:25Speaker 1: get more? If I don't try if I try, so
- 32:28Speaker 1: I just I did it. Okay. So what week was
- 32:32Speaker 1: it that you ended up calling them as far as
- 32:34Speaker 1: film dates, because we know that they started filming the
- 32:37Speaker 1: first second week of October. So when did you start
- 32:40Speaker 1: making the calls? Um? I mean I was in I
- 32:45Speaker 1: was talking to them before that, and I think they
- 32:48Speaker 1: were just like, I'm not sure, and so they weren't
- 32:54Speaker 1: so down with the idea, which is actually shocking to me.
- 32:57Speaker 1: I don't know why they wouldn't be Um. Yeah, Like
- 33:02Speaker 1: they were just like I don't know. It was just
- 33:05Speaker 1: like kind of up in the air. It was just
- 33:07Speaker 1: like not sure. Um. Yeah. It was just like it
- 33:12Speaker 1: was like we're there, we're in talks, and they were
- 33:14Speaker 1: like talking about it. I think they were just like
- 33:16Speaker 1: thinking through like what could work, what couldn't work, what's
- 33:20Speaker 1: gonna be best for matt um, and so it was
- 33:23Speaker 1: just kind of like it was all like we're in talks,
- 33:25Speaker 1: um for a bit. It was for a while, and
- 33:28Speaker 1: so I was kind of just like, I don't know
- 33:29Speaker 1: what's going to happen. Um. So, and it was never
- 33:32Speaker 1: an option for you to go in with the other
- 33:34Speaker 1: later rivals in week three or four. I don't know
- 33:38Speaker 1: if it was I see, I knew nothing about that,
- 33:40Speaker 1: so I don't know if that was an option for them.
- 33:42Speaker 1: It could have been. Um, but I think there's just
- 33:45Speaker 1: so many people I don't know. They weren't like telling
- 33:47Speaker 1: me like what was happening obviously and letting me know
- 33:50Speaker 1: about there's extra girls and all these things. So like
- 33:53Speaker 1: it was just like, we'll keep you posted. Not sure
- 33:57Speaker 1: that kind of thing. So, I mean, in credit to you,
- 34:00Speaker 1: you you're staying in it, You're pursuing it, You're interested
- 34:05Speaker 1: in it because you're interested in this guy, Like this
- 34:07Speaker 1: is an ideal for you. You don't want to show
- 34:09Speaker 1: up to a show like late in the season, you know,
- 34:12Speaker 1: cause a little RUCKI is like you you were actually
- 34:16Speaker 1: like into him and you wanted to see if this
- 34:18Speaker 1: could work. So then you fly out to the filming,
- 34:24Speaker 1: walk us through, how did this work? How did it happen?
- 34:27Speaker 1: Where were you staying? Uh, there's so much unknown, so
- 34:31Speaker 1: many things that you have to clarify. What did what
- 34:35Speaker 1: did it work out? Like, Oh, let's be real, did
- 34:37Speaker 1: you booke that flight? I did? I did book the plate? Yeah?
- 34:43Speaker 1: Um yeah? So I Um, so I taught I had
- 34:49Speaker 1: like my because I was telling you like we were
- 34:50Speaker 1: in talks, is like back and forth, not sure, blah blind.
- 34:53Speaker 1: I was just like at that point, I was like frustrated,
- 34:57Speaker 1: but also I was like I've put so much thought
- 34:58Speaker 1: into this at this point, and like I've invested, you know,
- 35:01Speaker 1: because once you think about something for so long and
- 35:03Speaker 1: you're like I put a lot of energy, I'm just
- 35:06Speaker 1: like it has to happen. I was like, I gotta
- 35:08Speaker 1: make this happen, like one way or another. And so
- 35:11Speaker 1: I had, um, like a final conversation with one of
- 35:14Speaker 1: the producers and he's like I can't see how he
- 35:17Speaker 1: can make this work. Um, I don't think it's gonna work.
- 35:19Speaker 1: And I was like, we're making it work. So I so, yeah,
- 35:23Speaker 1: so what I did? So yeah. I literally that day,
- 35:30Speaker 1: um just I literally booked a red eye from Elliott's
- 35:34Speaker 1: to Pittsburgh and rented a minivan and drove to Nemico
- 35:41Speaker 1: in the next morning. So I need two rent a minivan.
- 35:44Speaker 1: It was such like a joke for everyone. It was
- 35:47Speaker 1: so funny that that was like that became a joke
- 35:50Speaker 1: because for like when they so I just got there
- 35:53Speaker 1: for it, and I was like I got to rent
- 35:56Speaker 1: a car and went to Enterprise, like, oh, we have
- 35:58Speaker 1: a minivan. I was like, yeah, sure of course, Like
- 36:00Speaker 1: yeah twice I had no Like I was laughing. I
- 36:07Speaker 1: was like, oh, like I took I was taking videos
- 36:08Speaker 1: and myself I got a minivan, got nothing of it.
- 36:11Speaker 1: Like I was just like, this is great. Fits on
- 36:12Speaker 1: my bags, like whatever. I thought it was kind of funny,
- 36:15Speaker 1: hadn't I didn't think my car was going to be like,
- 36:19Speaker 1: I just thinking, so, yeah, that was so funny that
- 36:23Speaker 1: became a thing. I was stoked at the minivan. Had
- 36:26Speaker 1: no idea what was going to happen. But yeah, that
- 36:28Speaker 1: was that. I always n a minivan if I can
- 36:31Speaker 1: ren a car, because you know, at some point hopefully
- 36:34Speaker 1: in my life, if I'm blessed, I'll I'll have the
- 36:36Speaker 1: opportunity to drive a minivan full time. Um and needed
- 36:40Speaker 1: to need to, but I'm always down for it. Uh.
- 36:44Speaker 1: Knowing you through the podcast and getting to meet you
- 36:48Speaker 1: and knowing your story on Colton season, which was you
- 36:51Speaker 1: had never been kissed and you were a little more shy,
- 36:53Speaker 1: a little more reserved. You now find yourself drawing driving
- 36:58Speaker 1: across Pennsylvania in a mini fan on your way to surprise,
- 37:02Speaker 1: a nationally televised show. What is going through your head?
- 37:07Speaker 1: And how are you not panicking? How are your pits
- 37:09Speaker 1: not sweating out? Like how is this you are? I honestly, Ben,
- 37:18Speaker 1: I don't know. Like it was so crazy and I
- 37:21Speaker 1: was like what the entire time, I was like what
- 37:24Speaker 1: am I doing? Like I'm like, this is just it's
- 37:26Speaker 1: just like anti my normal thing. I just felt like,
- 37:30Speaker 1: to be honest, I just felt this like strong sense
- 37:33Speaker 1: of like this is what I'm supposed to be doing
- 37:35Speaker 1: and I don't I don't know why, Like it was
- 37:37Speaker 1: very weird. I just like I just said I have
- 37:39Speaker 1: to do um. I just really really felt that way,
- 37:43Speaker 1: and so I just went with it. And I was
- 37:46Speaker 1: like the entire time, like when I got like boarded
- 37:48Speaker 1: the plan, I was like hea, They're like what are
- 37:50Speaker 1: you doing? Like your psycho like what's happening? And then
- 37:53Speaker 1: just like kept going. I was so nervous. I think
- 37:56Speaker 1: I think the most nervous. I think when I was
- 37:59Speaker 1: driving up to Neemic Colin was like the scariest moment
- 38:02Speaker 1: of my life. I was like, what in the world
- 38:04Speaker 1: is happening? Okay, So when you were driving up to security,
- 38:09Speaker 1: did you text producers that morning be like, hey, just
- 38:11Speaker 1: letting you know I am on my way. Um. I
- 38:15Speaker 1: think they they they kind of had a warning. Yeah okay.
- 38:24Speaker 1: I feel like Chris Harrison really wasn't prepared though when
- 38:27Speaker 1: he saw you. That was yeah, yeah, I don't know.
- 38:33Speaker 1: It was so you you you were staying at a
- 38:36Speaker 1: motel and they were they like basically said, go back
- 38:39Speaker 1: to it while we make this decision. Did you really
- 38:42Speaker 1: go back to a motel or did they say okay, here,
- 38:45Speaker 1: we have a room. Um, I don't know what I'm
- 38:50Speaker 1: want to say, guys, I was saying. I was saying,
- 38:54Speaker 1: like a Hampton in, a beautiful Hampton in, And yeah,
- 38:57Speaker 1: I think they Um, after that reversation, we had quite
- 39:01Speaker 1: a long conversation and then um, they called me soon after.
- 39:06Speaker 1: I think they just like I'm ready to say in
- 39:09Speaker 1: And then I started quarantining with them. I like, there's
- 39:17Speaker 1: no judgment here either, because here's the thing. You have Ashley.
- 39:20Speaker 1: I can Eddie, who is like a hopeless romantic and
- 39:23Speaker 1: loves this story and like if this is the way
- 39:26Speaker 1: this turned out where you met your husband, she would
- 39:28Speaker 1: be in tears watching it. And then you have me
- 39:30Speaker 1: who's like I just can't believe you did it, Like no,
- 39:34Speaker 1: it's like yeah, and to me, it's not shocking at all,
- 39:37Speaker 1: nor is it like really wacky to me, Like I
- 39:42Speaker 1: could see myself sort of doing this, But this is
- 39:45Speaker 1: where I this is where I stopped maybe seeing myself
- 39:48Speaker 1: doing it, especially after how many times I've done the
- 39:50Speaker 1: show and all that, and you only you only did
- 39:53Speaker 1: it once. So like, whatever, fight, just just do it.
- 39:56Speaker 1: If you feel it, just do it. It's not like
- 39:58Speaker 1: you're like seemingly desperate by going of your second time
- 40:02Speaker 1: to try to meet a guy that you know your
- 40:04Speaker 1: best friend thinks that you'd be so well fitted with. Okay, so,
- 40:08Speaker 1: but this is this is when I'm like, when you
- 40:11Speaker 1: found out that after quarantining for a short amount of daisy,
- 40:15Speaker 1: you'd be going in during the top six Rose ceremony,
- 40:18Speaker 1: the ceremony that narrowed it down to top six where
- 40:22Speaker 1: you could do it all think oh crap, it is
- 40:24Speaker 1: too far in Honestly, I didn't know that at that point, Okay. Um,
- 40:30Speaker 1: I mean I knew, like obviously it wasn't Night one.
- 40:33Speaker 1: I knew it was not like Week one or two,
- 40:35Speaker 1: but I had no idea, like I knew it was
- 40:38Speaker 1: a rose ceremony, but like I just didn't know, like
- 40:41Speaker 1: how many girls are left. I knew, I didn't know
- 40:42Speaker 1: other girls had come in, like, but at that point
- 40:45Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, I mean to enter
- 40:49Speaker 1: a road ceremony was like absolutely terrifying and like walking
- 40:52Speaker 1: up the stairs and I was like, oh my gosh,
- 40:53Speaker 1: what do you guys? Like what do I have to do?
- 40:54Speaker 1: But looked like just you know, like you looked so
- 40:58Speaker 1: beautiful that it must have been so hard for him
- 41:02Speaker 1: to say no, oh you're so sweet, thank you. But
- 41:05Speaker 1: now I was just like I was already. I was like,
- 41:08Speaker 1: I did all this and I've quarantined, Like there's no
- 41:11Speaker 1: way I'm gonna like I was like, even if they
- 41:13Speaker 1: make an absolute flow on myself, which I was like
- 41:15Speaker 1: I was expecting to do, like I prepared myself. I
- 41:18Speaker 1: was like, this is gonna not gonna like make me
- 41:20Speaker 1: look in the best lights. But I was like whatever.
- 41:22Speaker 1: I was like, I hear I went through everything like
- 41:24Speaker 1: to get here, I'm like whatever, the people who know
- 41:27Speaker 1: me know me and love me, and I'm already like
- 41:29Speaker 1: they know I'm a weirdo, so like whatever other people
- 41:32Speaker 1: have to say, it's like whatever. I think it's very
- 41:34Speaker 1: strong of you. I think very brave. I mean to
- 41:38Speaker 1: to really just kind of know that there was like
- 41:40Speaker 1: a ninety chance off you were going to, like quote
- 41:42Speaker 1: make a fool of yourself. That's awesome to me, Thank you.
- 41:48Speaker 1: It was a hundred percent chance. In my brain, I
- 41:50Speaker 1: was like, there's no way. It's like I mean, I like, no,
- 41:54Speaker 1: you no. I know the process, so I knew what
- 41:56Speaker 1: was going to happen. But I was just like, it's
- 41:58Speaker 1: worth it, you know. He their way. I was doing
- 42:01Speaker 1: something I was afraid of, and I was like, it'll
- 42:03Speaker 1: be a story or it'll be you know, it could
- 42:06Speaker 1: work out. So I didn't know. So let's talk about
- 42:09Speaker 1: that night. Okay, Matts reaction to you, Were you happy
- 42:14Speaker 1: with it? I would have been happy with it. I
- 42:16Speaker 1: think that he was actually quite receptive to you and
- 42:18Speaker 1: very sweet the way he handled it. Yeah, he was
- 42:21Speaker 1: so sweet. Like I was like, walking to Chris Harrison
- 42:25Speaker 1: was like I was saying, it's like the scariest moment
- 42:27Speaker 1: in life, but I think like that was the second
- 42:29Speaker 1: scariest moment of my life, like walking up, having to
- 42:32Speaker 1: just walk in past the girls, and like I didn't
- 42:35Speaker 1: know if I should smile. I didn't know if I
- 42:36Speaker 1: should wave, like I had no idea. I was like
- 42:39Speaker 1: literally like shaking. Um. But he when I walked in,
- 42:43Speaker 1: he just started dying laughing for like like a weird
- 42:46Speaker 1: amount of time. And I was just like it just
- 42:49Speaker 1: like that like put me at ease, Like it just
- 42:52Speaker 1: made me feel like immediately comfortable. You know. I was
- 42:55Speaker 1: like okay, like I felt like someone I knew, and
- 42:58Speaker 1: like it just wasn't scary. So I just like his
- 43:01Speaker 1: presence just immediately put me at ease. Um. He was
- 43:04Speaker 1: so happy. He's like, I'm so excited. It was just
- 43:07Speaker 1: like yeah, I was very very appreciative of his response.
- 43:11Speaker 1: For sure, I did you did you black out? Like
- 43:16Speaker 1: you remember? Do you remember the moment when you walked
- 43:19Speaker 1: into the room that was I was watching it. I
- 43:21Speaker 1: just want to know, like did you know it all?
- 43:23Speaker 1: What you were doing and saying it was kind of
- 43:27Speaker 1: weird like right before, like I because with Colton when
- 43:31Speaker 1: I did that, when I got out of the limo,
- 43:32Speaker 1: like I completely blacked out, like I had no idea
- 43:34Speaker 1: what was happening. But for some reason, like as I
- 43:37Speaker 1: was pulling up in the minivan, before, Um, I just
- 43:40Speaker 1: had like it was like I was really scared. It
- 43:43Speaker 1: was just like I was with it. Like I was
- 43:45Speaker 1: like I had like a weird sense of peace. I
- 43:47Speaker 1: was like, okay, so I kind of do I kind
- 43:49Speaker 1: of was like it felt more normal. I feel like
- 43:52Speaker 1: because like he felt more like a human than like
- 43:55Speaker 1: this idolized celebrity crush person. All right, we have to
- 43:59Speaker 1: talk about the girls because they were very mean to you.
- 44:02Speaker 1: It was another point of bullying in this season. How
- 44:05Speaker 1: do you feel about them now? Um? I have no
- 44:10Speaker 1: like bad feelings about the girls now. Um, I understood
- 44:14Speaker 1: where they are coming from, and like I understood they
- 44:18Speaker 1: were frustrated, and I think that's why I was like
- 44:20Speaker 1: I was really sad and shocked about the reaction. UM.
- 44:26Speaker 1: But no, I have no ill will towards the girls
- 44:29Speaker 1: or any like negative feelings. I think they were just
- 44:32Speaker 1: like I understood it. So they're protective. I mean all season, right,
- 44:38Speaker 1: we went from like with these with this cast like
- 44:41Speaker 1: buying to um being just like mean, I don't know
- 44:45Speaker 1: if you can like separate the two. Um, and it
- 44:48Speaker 1: was just like another sign of that. But also they're protective.
- 44:50Speaker 1: That just feels like you're invading their space a little bit. Well, um, Heather,
- 44:56Speaker 1: you know you go through this whole season, this becomes
- 44:59Speaker 1: a storyline. I'm super intrigued at what your life looks
- 45:02Speaker 1: like now because there's been rumors goes flying around. Right,
- 45:05Speaker 1: You've been in the headline still even past this, you're
- 45:07Speaker 1: in the headlines for people thinking they edit you out
- 45:10Speaker 1: of um the women tell all and then there's headlines
- 45:16Speaker 1: saying that Matt and you are together. So what's going
- 45:20Speaker 1: on in life? I mean life is pretty much back
- 45:25Speaker 1: to normal, like, um, yeah, Like they're like, I'm dating that. No, No,
- 45:34Speaker 1: I'm not dating that. Um. I think he has a
- 45:37Speaker 1: lot going on in his life, like he is. You know,
- 45:41Speaker 1: he's going through a ton I can't even imagine, um,
- 45:45Speaker 1: which is like so many different aspects. So it's just
- 45:49Speaker 1: of the show, just everything. Um, so I think he
- 45:51Speaker 1: has a lot going on right now. So no, I'm
- 45:53Speaker 1: not dating that. Where did the rumor come from? Though, Like,
- 45:56Speaker 1: why do you how do you how would you explain it? Starting?
- 46:01Speaker 1: I don't know, I just started getting thing. You got
- 46:05Speaker 1: the headline that his location on Instagram was the same
- 46:08Speaker 1: location one night as yours. Oh that was the start
- 46:11Speaker 1: of it. Yes, yes, yes, that was the start of it,
- 46:13Speaker 1: that he was in San Clementi and I was in
- 46:14Speaker 1: San Clemoni. Okay, yeah, that was like a while ago.
- 46:17Speaker 1: Just a coincidence. Yeah, I mean sant Cluny's like thirty
- 46:21Speaker 1: minutes from me. My best girlfriend lives there. Um, so
- 46:25Speaker 1: I'm in sant Many all the time, and I guess
- 46:28Speaker 1: he was there too. I don't know. That was Yeah, well,
- 46:31Speaker 1: have you met in real life? Since? No, we haven't. No,
- 46:36Speaker 1: m so, I can't even ask you if you've kissed
- 46:38Speaker 1: Matt James in real life? So I asked, they just
- 46:40Speaker 1: have never seen each other actley, So, yeah, have you
- 46:45Speaker 1: kissed another guy since Colton? This is what I said.
- 46:49Speaker 1: I was like, I don't this. I told Chris because
- 46:50Speaker 1: they were asked me this too. I was like, I
- 46:52Speaker 1: don't kiss and tell anymore. After that show, not anymore.
- 46:56Speaker 1: I don't know, mysterious. Well, how did it feel then
- 47:02Speaker 1: with the women tell all you from everything I've read
- 47:06Speaker 1: and seen, you weren't edited out. They just had moved
- 47:08Speaker 1: you in and out of the set at times, right,
- 47:13Speaker 1: uh m hmm. Yeah. I don't know, guys, I don't
- 47:19Speaker 1: know what I'm allowed to say say that you can
- 47:22Speaker 1: just in that there. Well we'll make our assumptions. Heather,
- 47:26Speaker 1: you uh, any chance you go on Paradise. Um, I
- 47:31Speaker 1: don't think so. I don't think Paradise is. I mean
- 47:37Speaker 1: I don't want ever like again, Like I hate saying
- 47:39Speaker 1: I never would have said I would have gone back
- 47:41Speaker 1: on the show. You know that one has been a no.
- 47:42Speaker 1: But I don't think that's the show for me. I don't,
- 47:47Speaker 1: just for multiple different reasons, but um, yeah, I don't
- 47:51Speaker 1: think so. M h m hmm. Lots of people have
- 47:55Speaker 1: told us that, like Derek paith One said there's no
- 47:58Speaker 1: way away and then we saw him on the beach
- 48:01Speaker 1: two months later. That's why I hate, like, I don't
- 48:04Speaker 1: want to ever say because then exactly I always get
- 48:07Speaker 1: annoyed and people say that and then they do it.
- 48:09Speaker 1: But as of now, that's kind of Brian. Okay, Well,
- 48:13Speaker 1: you're the sweetest and I feel like everybody is very
- 48:15Speaker 1: attached to you now, even more so than after Colton season.
- 48:19Speaker 1: I think that people would like to see you on Paradise, So, UM,
- 48:23Speaker 1: don't rule it out. If there's a little little part
- 48:26Speaker 1: of you that'd like, like we want to do its
- 48:30Speaker 1: very kind super you are super sweet, and it was
- 48:34Speaker 1: very crappy for us to see the hate that you
- 48:37Speaker 1: were getting that week, because we're like, this isn't about
- 48:41Speaker 1: heav Are you kidding me? Like this isn't Heather doing
- 48:45Speaker 1: anything wrong. She's just like exhausting all options and like
- 48:49Speaker 1: making sure that she's not missing out on something. This
- 48:52Speaker 1: could be your prince Charmy. She she was pursuing love
- 48:55Speaker 1: m Heather Markin. Thank you so much for coming on.

- 49:04Speaker 1: good to talk to you guys, So good talking to you,
- 49:07Speaker 1: See you soon, Bye bye. I'm in charge of headlines
- 49:20Speaker 1: this week, and we're starting off with Caitlin Bristoe's incredible
- 49:24Speaker 1: April Fools prank on Jason Targic. It was truly legendary.
- 49:29Speaker 1: Um you guys, I could explain exactly what happens, but
- 49:33Speaker 1: it's best for you just grab your phone, look at
- 49:36Speaker 1: Instagram and see how Caitlin pranked Jason from like two
- 49:41Speaker 1: thousand miles away. She's in New Mexico filming The Bachelorette
- 49:45Speaker 1: and he is, I believe, like in Tennessee at their home,
- 49:49Speaker 1: and long story short, she sent him a naughty picture
- 49:54Speaker 1: the night before. It was all very planned out, and
- 49:57Speaker 1: then the next day she had thirty for ends from
- 50:00Speaker 1: all different realms of their life. Text him, Oh my god,
- 50:03Speaker 1: did you mean to post that on your instant story?
- 50:06Speaker 1: And then he called her and he was like, everybody's
- 50:09Speaker 1: everybody's asking if I am posted something on my Instagram
- 50:13Speaker 1: and I have no idea what they're talking about. And
- 50:15Speaker 1: then Caitlin was like, oh my god, um, was it
- 50:18Speaker 1: what I sent you last night? And he is just
- 50:22Speaker 1: f freaking out, Like you guys have got to see
- 50:25Speaker 1: the footage that she has recorded via Faceheimer's room or
- 50:28Speaker 1: something like that, just hysterical at how completely anxious he was.
- 50:36Speaker 1: And then when she said April Fools, you could tell
- 50:39Speaker 1: that he was annoyed. But it was maybe the greatest
- 50:42Speaker 1: April Fool joke I've ever seen ever, so definitely pulled
- 50:47Speaker 1: this up on Instagram another April Fools which started why
- 50:52Speaker 1: couldn't it been for real? Uh? Matt James posted earlier
- 50:57Speaker 1: in the day on April Fol's Day that it was
- 50:59Speaker 1: taught peace out Beard Well everybody got really excited that
- 51:04Speaker 1: he was showing his handsome face off again, and just
- 51:07Speaker 1: a couple of hours later, he posted again on Instagram
- 51:11Speaker 1: with the beard in full force, that April Fools like
- 51:15Speaker 1: his eye clothes, uh, saying April Fools hashtag beard gang.
- 51:21Speaker 1: So I guess the beard is not gonna go anywhere soon.
- 51:23Speaker 1: This April Fool's kind of reminded me of um Michael Strahan's.
- 51:28Speaker 1: Michael Strahan's was fantastic. The day before April Fool's Day.
- 51:32Speaker 1: I know this is not badche related, but I think
- 51:33Speaker 1: it's worth noting, he posted that he was at like
- 51:37Speaker 1: the oral surgeon of the dentist or something, and he
- 51:40Speaker 1: got his teeth his gap, his infamous gap fixed and
- 51:44Speaker 1: they must have put you know, false season there, and uh,
- 51:48Speaker 1: you know, there's so many comments like you look beautiful
- 51:50Speaker 1: both ways, but like, oh I really really missed the gap.
- 51:53Speaker 1: How could get rid of your signature? And then on
- 51:56Speaker 1: April Fool's Day he revealed that the gap was still there.
- 52:00Speaker 1: He said that all the comments are really sweet, but like,
- 52:02Speaker 1: I love Rachel Strahan and I thought that was such
- 52:04Speaker 1: a fantastic apriforce too, in not joking news, but wonderful news.
- 52:11Speaker 1: Crystal Nielsen gave birth this week. If you follow her

- 52:29Speaker 1: was after eighteen hours of labor. She had an ever dural,
- 52:33Speaker 1: she had to be induced. She had even a balloon
- 52:36Speaker 1: to help her dilate. She death is actually surprisingly delivery
- 52:41Speaker 1: was surprisingly easier than she thought, and she said that
- 52:45Speaker 1: she didn't have like a lot of side effects, like
- 52:47Speaker 1: barely any tearing, minimal swelling. She said she pid no problem.
- 52:51Speaker 1: She was able to walk an hour and a half
- 52:54Speaker 1: after the baby was born. And right now we don't
- 52:58Speaker 1: have the name for the baby. We that she is beautiful,
- 53:02Speaker 1: UM and I think we're gonna have Crystal on the
- 53:07Speaker 1: podcast soon to discuss the entire birth story. But congratulations
- 53:12Speaker 1: to one of our almost famous friends. We love Crystal. UM.
- 53:18Speaker 1: Can't wait to hear the story in other pregnancy news. Apparently,
- 53:24Speaker 1: my husband's laughing at me. Why are you laughing at me?
- 53:28Speaker 1: You know what you do headlines by yourself, so I
- 53:30Speaker 1: know I understand. I'm sorry, I was walking and describing
- 53:32Speaker 1: your shirt. Yeah, you know what. You're throwing me off too.
- 53:35Speaker 1: It's like you're like silently trying to open the closet door. Yeah,
- 53:40Speaker 1: but that's when you're going back and forth with somebody,
- 53:43Speaker 1: not like trying to do a monologue by yourself. I
- 53:46Speaker 1: have to do this thing, so I needed to grab
- 53:48Speaker 1: my shirt. But anyway, point is I think it's I
- 53:50Speaker 1: was thinking about how I would describe Crystal. Yeah, it's
- 53:53Speaker 1: like everything is verious. Yeah, it's great and I'm so
- 53:56Speaker 1: happy for and um it's always like we're talking about
- 53:59Speaker 1: some that you're friends with but like haven't seen in
- 54:01Speaker 1: so long, about having a child with somebody you don't know,
- 54:05Speaker 1: you know, it's like he seems great, and um, like
- 54:08Speaker 1: I'm so happy for them. And then that's really all
- 54:11Speaker 1: I have to say about it. It's very because it's
- 54:12Speaker 1: such a monumental moment in somebody's life. I want to
- 54:15Speaker 1: support them. Yeah, her pregnancy flew by. It felt like
- 54:18Speaker 1: just yesterday she announced, but she didn't announce until she
- 54:20Speaker 1: was like four months. That's probably remember that announcement video
- 54:23Speaker 1: that she posted where she was like kind of panicking.
- 54:26Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right. It feels like yesterday. Well, do
- 54:29Speaker 1: you want to stay here? While we talked about the
- 54:31Speaker 1: fact that Lauren and Ari are moving to Hawaii, Yeah,
- 54:35Speaker 1: that makes sense. I mean, where were they Arizona and
- 54:37Speaker 1: like warm weather? Why not moved to Hawaii. They look
- 54:39Speaker 1: like they're doing well for themselves. Well apparently it was
- 54:42Speaker 1: did you put your teeth yet? I mean yes, I did. Really,
- 54:45Speaker 1: I just had a bar coffee. You had much water?
- 54:49Speaker 1: You had coffee sin sprushing your teeth. I don't remember
- 54:52Speaker 1: you didn't have much water. It's okay, you can back out.
- 54:54Speaker 1: I love you, Okay, it's a Lauren and Ari are
- 54:59Speaker 1: moved to Hawaii. They were there on a baby moon
- 55:02Speaker 1: this past week, and I get I guess they If
- 55:08Speaker 1: you watch their video, it makes it seem like they
- 55:10Speaker 1: have been planning this move. That they were on Zillo
- 55:12Speaker 1: looking around at houses somewhere else, and then she came
- 55:15Speaker 1: across this house in Hawaii and she said, without seeing
- 55:20Speaker 1: it in person, let's put down an offer. They got
- 55:23Speaker 1: the house, and uh, they'll be moving in shortly. I
- 55:27Speaker 1: don't know when, like maybe after the babies are delivered.
- 55:30Speaker 1: But it's a four bedroom, two bathroom. It's really spacious.
- 55:33Speaker 1: You guys can see the the entire video. It's also modern.
- 55:36Speaker 1: It's sorry to button, but you're telling me I didn't
- 55:39Speaker 1: know this that they put an offer in on the
- 55:41Speaker 1: house without seeing it in person. Are they insane? How
- 55:46Speaker 1: do you do that? How are you? How are you? Just? Like, Yeah,
- 55:48Speaker 1: I'll take the photos at their word, especially being so
- 55:53Speaker 1: prominent on Instagram, they should know better than anybody. You
- 55:55Speaker 1: can't take photos at their word. Everything is enhanced and
- 55:59Speaker 1: depends on the lighting. It looks better than it actually is. Look,
- 56:02Speaker 1: I watched the video, and my interpretation of it is
- 56:05Speaker 1: that they bought it without seeing it in real life.
- 56:07Speaker 1: Or maybe maybe Lauren didn't see it in real life
- 56:10Speaker 1: and Ari went on his own or something. But it
- 56:12Speaker 1: was like their babyman was the first time she saw
- 56:15Speaker 1: it in real life. And he was not the realtor,
- 56:17Speaker 1: Like he doesn't have his license in why he's obviously
- 56:19Speaker 1: going to beginning his license in Hawaii. Are they going
- 56:21Speaker 1: to be their full time? Yeah, they're gonna be there
- 56:23Speaker 1: full time. Wow, that's pretty cool. No, it is really cool.
- 56:28Speaker 1: It's so unlike us, Like you guys, Jared and I
- 56:30Speaker 1: have been in this the complete opposite of Hawaii. But also,
- 56:37Speaker 1: you and I can't put offers on anything. We're scared
- 56:40Speaker 1: list and then these peopleth put an offer on something
- 56:44Speaker 1: without seeing it. It took me two weeks to buy
- 56:46Speaker 1: a brand new pair of sneakers. We just we have
- 56:48Speaker 1: very difficult time spending money. I like that mindset about us. No,
- 56:52Speaker 1: I did too, Jared did. There were a hundred and
- 56:53Speaker 1: twenty dollars. He's never bought a pair of sneakers for
- 56:55Speaker 1: over a hundred dollars. He was very excited about this
- 57:00Speaker 1: project Rocks, which is the Rocks line, and he motivates
- 57:03Speaker 1: me to work out. So I was like, I need
- 57:05Speaker 1: sneakers to make me feel cool at the gym, so
- 57:07Speaker 1: I feel confident and it will make me work out
- 57:09Speaker 1: harder while I'm there. But then I was like I
- 57:13Speaker 1: should buy sneakers. No, I was like, Jared, you love them,
- 57:17Speaker 1: You love them, You're going to go back and treat
- 57:18Speaker 1: yourself to them anyway. LA more moving news, Rachel Lindsay

- 58:01Speaker 1: filming of The bachelorrette this week. She said she got
- 58:04Speaker 1: a surprise visit and uh, which made me think, I
- 58:14Speaker 1: am so sorry, long pause, But did they have Zach
- 58:18Speaker 1: like quarantine in another room without telling Tastia for a
- 58:22Speaker 1: while because they are strict on the COVID protocols on
- 58:26Speaker 1: these sets, So was he testing and staying in the
- 58:31Speaker 1: room before surprising her and knocking on her own door?
- 58:34Speaker 1: I don't know, but that's almost what it makes me
- 58:37Speaker 1: feel like they'd have to do for all these for
- 58:39Speaker 1: all these set visits, whether it's Zac or Jason. We
- 58:42Speaker 1: hope to have Jason on the podcast soon and that's

- 58:59Speaker 1: the most headline he headline you've ever seen, but she
- 59:03Speaker 1: was talking about her naps and there were two of
- 59:05Speaker 1: them that really made the girls upset. One was during
- 59:08Speaker 1: a pool party back on next season. The other one
- 59:10Speaker 1: was during a rose ceremony where she already had a rose.
- 59:13Speaker 1: She said that she just wasn't going to not be
- 59:16Speaker 1: herself and she actually said, this is a little bit
- 59:18Speaker 1: more interesting to me. And then the naps. She said
- 59:22Speaker 1: that the first night, while standing there during the rose ceremony,
- 59:26Speaker 1: she felt like she almost fainted, which I can kind
- 59:29Speaker 1: of understand because one so late, you're really tired, you know,
- 59:33Speaker 1: completely off a sleep schedule. You are in the highest heels,
- 59:38Speaker 1: standing in them still for just like standing steel in them,
- 59:42Speaker 1: rocking back and forth for like two hours. She said
- 59:45Speaker 1: that the balls of her feet were in such pain.
- 59:48Speaker 1: And then you may be hungry at that point. I
- 59:51Speaker 1: don't know. I was never hungry because I would eat
- 59:53Speaker 1: all the odorves. They had so many oderves those nights,
- 59:56Speaker 1: and then um, just like all the anxiety. She said, guys,
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: I need medical attention, like I am not well. Oh
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: my god, oh my god, oh my god. It was horrible.
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: Please please don't do this. God, don't let me faint.
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: So you know, that's a that's a fun Karan quote
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: for you. For this week. My friend Nick Viall is

- 1:00:44Speaker 1: the headlines do you have this week? Podcast? On the
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: topic of podcast, Peter Weber and Dustin Kendrick announced that
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: they're going to have a podcast called Bachelor's in the City.
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: I think it's supposed to be like Sex in the
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: City because they're going to be talking about their single
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: lives in their New York experience on this new podcast,
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: Peter said, we thought it would be kind of cool
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: to share experiences with our following and just talk about
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: why we love the city so much and bring out
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: a lot of cool, influential people in the city. This
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: is a really fun city and it offers a sense
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: of optimism that not a lot of cities or places
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: in the world do. So. Um, stay tuned for Bachelor's
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: in the City, another bachelor related podcast. And here is
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: our last headline of the week. It's according to e Online,
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: and it says that there are Bachelor stars that are
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: apprehensive to join Bachelor in Paradise. Um. Of course, there's
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: been a lot of controversy around the franchise lately and
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: since casting has become Some members of Bachelor Nation, according
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: to a source, are apprehensive to sign up for Bachelor
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: in Paradise. Some are wondering what direction the season will
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: take and are curious if it will strictly focus on
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: the contestants falling in love. A second source agrees with
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: these sentiments, adding that they have to put um. They've
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: had to put out several asked to Bachelor veterans. Many
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: people are declining. Due to the current state of the
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: Bachelor Nation, a lot of people are removing themselves from
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: the franchise. So it will be interesting to see the
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: cast that they get together for Bachelor in Paradise and
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: whether these people, you know how and have initially cold
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: feet and decide to go with it, or whether they
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: really take a stand and don't go forward with future seasons. Well,
