- 0:12Speaker 1: have you joining us today. Thank you for listening. We
- 0:14Speaker 1: appreciate you. Um, we have to jump right into it.
- 0:18Speaker 1: We're three weeks away from the Bachelorette actually still in
- 0:22Speaker 1: the tent. How excited are you? I'm okay excited until
- 0:26Speaker 1: the season starts. I don't really like, I don't anticipate it.
- 0:31Speaker 1: Really that you don't miss it? M M? Is that bad? No? Hey,
- 0:40Speaker 1: there is nothing wrong with any opinion that you have
- 0:43Speaker 1: towards the Bachelor of bachel right. Actually I'm interested on
- 0:46Speaker 1: why you don't miss it? Means your life literally goes
- 0:49Speaker 1: from zero to a hundred once the Bachelor start. Well
- 0:52Speaker 1: then maybe that's why. Yeah, perfect, that's a good point.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Tell us ever, tell everybody, like, what exactly you get
- 1:01Speaker 1: involved in once the show starts? Oh my gosh. Okay,
- 1:04Speaker 1: so I have obviously this recap, then I have my
- 1:07Speaker 1: Cosmopolitan recap, I have my fab Fit Fun recap um,
- 1:12Speaker 1: and then I have my Access Hollywood recap and that
- 1:14Speaker 1: is on the Live Morning Show and their Facebook they're digital.
- 1:20Speaker 1: What's the best recap? Actually, oh, they're all children to me.
- 1:26Speaker 1: I can't pick a favorite, but of course I love
- 1:30Speaker 1: doing it. It's just, yeah, it's a lot of different
- 1:32Speaker 1: ways of analyzing the show that I have to come
- 1:35Speaker 1: up with to make each one a little bit different
- 1:38Speaker 1: and special in its own way. Interesting. Well, hey, I
- 1:41Speaker 1: got some big news when it comes to Becca season. Uh,
- 1:44Speaker 1: I've gotten a little inside soup so far. What I
- 1:47Speaker 1: hear is Becca is a an incredible bachelort, not for
- 1:51Speaker 1: any other reason other than that she is very attentive,
- 1:54Speaker 1: very caring, loving, She's obviously beautiful. Um, but I guess
- 1:58Speaker 1: from everything I understand, they hit a home run when
- 2:01Speaker 1: it came to finding Becca as a bachelor at that.
- 2:05Speaker 1: What do you think? I mean, that's awesome? I think so.
- 2:09Speaker 1: I think she's probably gonna just relish in the role.
- 2:11Speaker 1: I don't I don't see her complaining about being too
- 2:14Speaker 1: tiring or anything like that. I feel like she's going
- 2:17Speaker 1: to be like the least of diva like bachelor atte
- 2:21Speaker 1: You're right, I mean, so that was kind of the
- 2:23Speaker 1: insight I got was that, you know, she's so like
- 2:26Speaker 1: being a bachelor, so tired, We've talked about this a
- 2:28Speaker 1: few weeks ago. She doesn't complain and I have Actually
- 2:31Speaker 1: I can't wait to explain more about this. I I've
- 2:34Speaker 1: just met up with somebody who was asked to go
- 2:38Speaker 1: home from her season recently. I wonder who was yeah,
- 2:43Speaker 1: And all they had to say was incredible things about Becca,
- 2:48Speaker 1: that she was literally like their dream girl and not
- 2:51Speaker 1: in like a weird like oh I missed her kind
- 2:53Speaker 1: of way, just like man, that girls special. And so
- 2:56Speaker 1: I've pumped to this season. I'm looking forward to it.
- 2:59Speaker 1: I'm excited. I think Becca is gonna blow the two
- 3:01Speaker 1: other water. How lucky is the Bachelor franchise though we
- 3:05Speaker 1: talked about before, but they haven't had a bad quote
- 3:10Speaker 1: unquote Bachelor at maybe ever. Know, the girls kill it? Why?
- 3:16Speaker 1: Why about that we can take back on guys and
- 3:19Speaker 1: and name a thousand and and you know we're over
- 3:22Speaker 1: five and the last five years, So like, what about girls?
- 3:25Speaker 1: What makes them different? I just I have to go
- 3:29Speaker 1: back to that, like they don't have the subtle desire
- 3:34Speaker 1: in the back of their head to maybe take to
- 3:38Speaker 1: play around a little bit after I don't think the
- 3:41Speaker 1: Bachelor I ever goes Oh, but you know what if
- 3:44Speaker 1: I'm the Bachelor and it doesn't work out on the show,
- 3:47Speaker 1: then I'm going to have the world at my fingertips.
- 3:50Speaker 1: As far as the available men that come to me,
- 3:54Speaker 1: I think guys are some I mean not you, Ben,
- 3:57Speaker 1: And maybe I'm generalizing. I probably I'm probably being um sexist. Yes,
- 4:06Speaker 1: um double standard. I feel like it's very much a
- 4:08Speaker 1: double standard of me to say this, But I do
- 4:11Speaker 1: think that the guys are probably saying, Hey, if doesn't
- 4:14Speaker 1: work out with her, think about all the girls that
- 4:17Speaker 1: will be after me after this. Yeah, I I don't
- 4:21Speaker 1: think you're wrong. Oh good, thank you, thank you. Yeah,
- 4:25Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think you're wrong at all. I
- 4:27Speaker 1: think it's very interesting and and that is true. I mean,
- 4:29Speaker 1: once you get off, you know, the girls are waiting,
- 4:33Speaker 1: you know. But it's the question is is it the
- 4:36Speaker 1: right one? And I think the show really offers the
- 4:38Speaker 1: ability to find the right one. But anyway, we're pumped
- 4:41Speaker 1: out here at the almost finish podcast. We've almost made
- 4:44Speaker 1: it through our third off season. That's insane, um and
- 4:49Speaker 1: this is my maybe going to be be one of
- 4:51Speaker 1: the best shows that we've had. But before we get
- 4:54Speaker 1: into Bachelor news, I want to let everybody know that
- 4:57Speaker 1: in what is it actually two weeks? So I'm trying
- 5:00Speaker 1: to look at our calendar here. This season starts in
- 5:02Speaker 1: three weeks. We will have a very special guest reveal.
- 5:06Speaker 1: It reveal a ben Bachlorret in two weeks. Right, yeah,
- 5:12Speaker 1: we'll have her on for a whole hour in two weeks.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Oh that's insane what we're gonna talk about. I'm gonna
- 5:18Speaker 1: be nerves I'm gonna be nervous. Oh you are nervous too,
- 5:24Speaker 1: that's a big deal. Yeah, she's gonna She looked at
- 5:27Speaker 1: almost like a Rachel lindsay to me, like, uh, you know,
- 5:29Speaker 1: she's a little intimidating, but she's super sweet and super kind.
- 5:32Speaker 1: But like even when I see Rachel's today, like I
- 5:34Speaker 1: kind of like get a little nervous just because like
- 5:38Speaker 1: she's she is, you know, a lady Boughs. Like they
- 5:41Speaker 1: definitely have a yeah presence about him. All Right, anyway,
- 5:44Speaker 1: we're gonna we have to move on here, athlete. What
- 5:47Speaker 1: are your thoughts? Uh? N z K. The production company
- 5:50Speaker 1: of the Bachelor has come out with a new show.
- 5:53Speaker 1: They've tried a couple of shows here recently, not all
- 5:55Speaker 1: of them. More work actually a couple have been very successful.
- 5:57Speaker 1: The one with Andy Cohen called help me on year.
- 6:00Speaker 1: Asked to what's the name of it Andy Cohen Show? Uh?
- 6:03Speaker 1: No that that. He's the host of Anybody connect Love Connections. Yeah,
- 6:08Speaker 1: it's an MP case show that's doing pretty really well. Yeah.
- 6:12Speaker 1: And then they have this one, uh, The Proposal, which
- 6:16Speaker 1: was just not recently. The Proposal is being hosted by
- 6:18Speaker 1: Jesse Palmer. He was the Bachelor at a few years ago,
- 6:21Speaker 1: many many years ago. I don't I don't remember him
- 6:24Speaker 1: as a bachelor. I don't know how many people do.
- 6:27Speaker 1: He's a professional football player. He also worked on Good
- 6:30Speaker 1: Morning America for a while. I don't know if he's
- 6:31Speaker 1: still is it's just a good choice as the hope.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I think he's like, um, he's gonna be
- 6:36Speaker 1: great with this. I'm not sure if he's still all
- 6:38Speaker 1: Good Morning America. You're right, but he also does um,
- 6:42Speaker 1: some entertainment reporting for I think it's um, what is
- 6:46Speaker 1: the what is Why am I blanking all these things?
- 6:49Speaker 1: What's that European outlet for pop culture news? Help us
- 6:56Speaker 1: out here? Mark daily Mail? Thank you? Okay, yes, thank
- 7:03Speaker 1: He hosts Daily Mail, which is you know, a entertainment
- 7:06Speaker 1: news program. And I knew Jesse Palmer even before he
- 7:10Speaker 1: was the Bachelor because I'm a Giants fan and he
- 7:14Speaker 1: was the hot backup quarterback. And then then all of
- 7:16Speaker 1: a sudden he became the Bachelor, and I was like, well,
- 7:18Speaker 1: if I was old enough to go on the show,
- 7:20Speaker 1: I'd be down with that bachelor. Really, I mean, he's
- 7:25Speaker 1: a bachelor. Remember you think he's a great choice to
- 7:28Speaker 1: host the show. He's good looking, he's intriguing. Are you
- 7:31Speaker 1: going to watch the proposal? I guess yeah, I have to.
- 7:34Speaker 1: I'm a n z Ky fan and there's my family basically,
- 7:37Speaker 1: so of course I'm going to watch the proposal. Um.
- 7:39Speaker 1: I had a couple of friends that went to go
- 7:41Speaker 1: to the first taping last week and they say it's
- 7:44Speaker 1: quite something like proposals may happen on this show for real,
- 7:51Speaker 1: and they may only know each other for a little bit.
- 7:56Speaker 1: Like what I mean a little bit, I mean less
- 7:58Speaker 1: than we know these people from The Bachelor. Bachelor in
- 8:01Speaker 1: Paradise absolutely crazy. I actually had a friend of mine
- 8:05Speaker 1: here in Denver, Colorado who was going to be on
- 8:09Speaker 1: the show. Actually I helped him film his like casting
- 8:13Speaker 1: video for this show. He really wanted to do it,
- 8:15Speaker 1: it didn't didn't happen. Um, did he end up going
- 8:18Speaker 1: on the Bachelorette? No, he didn't. He didn't end up
- 8:22Speaker 1: going on. It's interesting. I think I don't know actually
- 8:27Speaker 1: for me, these shows do they work? What? What keeps
- 8:31Speaker 1: an audience engaged? I mean, we've had the Married at
- 8:33Speaker 1: First Sight show that's done really well. Um, you know,
- 8:37Speaker 1: we've had some of these, like other dating shows that
- 8:39Speaker 1: that last, but a lot of them also kind of
- 8:41Speaker 1: flutter away. What do you have to see in the
- 8:44Speaker 1: proposal to keep you hooked other than being a fan
- 8:46Speaker 1: of the production company. I guess just just like the
- 8:51Speaker 1: does the small little glimmer of it actually working out?
- 8:55Speaker 1: I think that's what it is on Merit at first Sight. Well,
- 8:57Speaker 1: I think it's like absolutely almost on he men to
- 9:01Speaker 1: just see your husband or wife for the first time
- 9:03Speaker 1: as you're walking down the aisle to them. But then
- 9:06Speaker 1: you're like, wait a second, how crazy would it be
- 9:10Speaker 1: if this works? So I guess there's just that a
- 9:13Speaker 1: little crazy, outrageous factor that you tune in floor but
- 9:17Speaker 1: we forget And I think this is one of the
- 9:18Speaker 1: most interesting things. Uh And I said, and I'll talk
- 9:22Speaker 1: about this other day. We forget that not that long ago. Actually,
- 9:24Speaker 1: and actually in other places in the world today, arranged
- 9:28Speaker 1: marriages are not a forgotten gesture like those they happen,
- 9:33Speaker 1: they're respected, and so they worked so so often. That's
- 9:39Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying, is I want to see if
- 9:40Speaker 1: the percentages. I don't have the percentages in front of me,
- 9:42Speaker 1: but I do know they're very high. They work so
- 9:45Speaker 1: so often because the grass isn't greener anywhere else. You
- 9:49Speaker 1: are focused on this is my partner, and how do
- 9:51Speaker 1: I make this work with this person. So the idea
- 9:54Speaker 1: of not knowing somebody for very long or an arranged
- 9:56Speaker 1: marriage isn't one that I'm upset about. Like I actually
- 9:59Speaker 1: kind of wish like I would have just been set
- 10:01Speaker 1: up and this is your wife. You got to build
- 10:03Speaker 1: a life and you're gonna make this thing work. And
- 10:04Speaker 1: I would have said, let's do this thing. I think
- 10:06Speaker 1: would have been I think it would be perfect for
- 10:08Speaker 1: you. You You want to go on married at first sight. Next,
- 10:10Speaker 1: I mean, I don't really think this could work. However,
- 10:13Speaker 1: I know be horrible for me because I am just
- 10:16Speaker 1: it's got to like I can't make something work. It
- 10:19Speaker 1: just has to naturally work. But uh yeah, arranged marriages
- 10:25Speaker 1: they're successful often, and I think it has to do
- 10:28Speaker 1: with maybe the parents, you know, knowing their kids so
- 10:31Speaker 1: well they know who will be a good fit for them.
- 10:33Speaker 1: I think my mom will be able to choose my
- 10:35Speaker 1: sister's husband quite well. I don't disagree with that. Hey
- 10:40Speaker 1: actually have a caller on the line. But before we
- 10:41Speaker 1: go to I gotta run through the rest of these
- 10:43Speaker 1: fast news really quick. Here biggest news I think today
- 10:47Speaker 1: right now is Vanessa Grimaldi dating somebody we don't know who.
- 10:51Speaker 1: Do you have any idea you think it is? And
- 10:53Speaker 1: she talks about it on Dean and Jared's Help. I
- 10:56Speaker 1: suck at dating podcast. Yeah, definitely, she hints at it,
- 11:00Speaker 1: But I don't think that it's somebody that we know.
- 11:04Speaker 1: That's interesting. Do you think, I mean, is he's not
- 11:06Speaker 1: in the back to the world, not in the back
- 11:07Speaker 1: to that world. From listening to the podcast, they sound serious.
- 11:11Speaker 1: What do you think? Are you happy? I mean, you're
- 11:13Speaker 1: obviously happy for her. I mean, how do we do
- 11:19Speaker 1: we dance around this issue? Do we just talk about
- 11:21Speaker 1: do we bring her on sometime to talk about a
- 11:22Speaker 1: new relationship? I mean, this is a big deal, right.
- 11:25Speaker 1: I think it's relatively fresh break up. I think it's fresh.
- 11:29Speaker 1: I wouldn't say they've been dating any longer than two months.
- 11:31Speaker 1: So maybe when she's really ready to be public with it,
- 11:33Speaker 1: we can have her on. Okay, I get it. I
- 11:35Speaker 1: want to respect that because I tell you what, I
- 11:37Speaker 1: get that a public breakup is tough to go through,
- 11:40Speaker 1: and you don't want to go public with a new
- 11:42Speaker 1: relationship until you're exactly ready. I think it's very very smart.
- 11:45Speaker 1: All right. Next news, Ari and Lauren moving quickly. We've
- 11:49Speaker 1: heard it, you know, a couple of weeks ago from
- 11:52Speaker 1: the therapist. They are moving and grooving, uh, in a
- 11:56Speaker 1: way that we've never seen before. They've bought never seen before.
- 12:00Speaker 1: I mean, I've never seen this. This is We're not
- 12:03Speaker 1: even starting the past Threat season yet, and these people
- 12:06Speaker 1: have traveled all around the world. I mean, just for them.
- 12:08Speaker 1: I'm jealous, honestly, so if I say something, Negati appears
- 12:12Speaker 1: because I'm just envious of their life. But then they
- 12:15Speaker 1: fought a house. I mean they're not slowing it down. No, no,
- 12:19Speaker 1: they're not. They're in it to win it. As Randy
- 12:21Speaker 1: Jackson would say back in the day, are they going
- 12:25Speaker 1: to be the first. Are they going to be the
- 12:26Speaker 1: first couple to get married you think out of all
- 12:28Speaker 1: this group? Actually, I think they might. And if they
- 12:30Speaker 1: don't do a televised wedding, I could see them just
- 12:33Speaker 1: doing it this summer on their own. Yeah, I can.
- 12:36Speaker 1: You know, I could do it. I just actually I'll
- 12:38Speaker 1: get a picture actually after the podcast there, I just
- 12:40Speaker 1: officially got my ordination in Indiana. I can now illegally
- 12:45Speaker 1: marry somebody in Indiana. My cousin recently has asked me, well,
- 12:49Speaker 1: I could actually transfer to any state in any fifty states.
- 12:52Speaker 1: So if anybody's out there wanting me to, you know,
- 12:54Speaker 1: do the ceremony, just let me know you well, hopefully
- 12:59Speaker 1: actually you can a married fairly soon. And on the
- 13:02Speaker 1: next one, Nick Vile is on General Hospital. Is he

- 18:23Speaker 1: I am here. You talked about Colorado. There is there

- 18:32Speaker 1: thirty minutes lest to Cleveland when I was eight, moved
- 18:35Speaker 1: to Record, Colorado, a lot of place, and spent about
- 18:38Speaker 1: fifteen years there. I met my wife there and we
- 18:41Speaker 1: got married and started having the little guys that girls,
- 18:44Speaker 1: and her whole family is down in Scottsdale, so we
- 18:47Speaker 1: moved down here to be closer to family, and now
- 18:49Speaker 1: we're we're down here. We spend you know, yeah, ten
- 18:53Speaker 1: months a year down here, and then you know, kind
- 18:55Speaker 1: of jumped back and forth when it gets row hot

- 19:05Speaker 1: give a little background here, you won the final rows
- 19:08Speaker 1: in the Napathist Uh back. I don't know how many
- 19:11Speaker 1: moons ago dec it was on? How long is that?
- 19:15Speaker 1: Ten years ago? Ten ten, ten years. Yeah, back pre
- 19:18Speaker 1: Jason Mesnick. Everybody's who's that guy? And like the guy
- 19:21Speaker 1: with the kids. They're like, oh, yeah, I remember him. Unbelievable. Actually,
- 19:25Speaker 1: take it away, how did your wife feel when she
- 19:29Speaker 1: met someone that she really liked but he had one
- 19:33Speaker 1: um A bachelorette season? Well, my wife was on Jason
- 19:38Speaker 1: Mesnick season, so she kind of gets it. Um. And
- 19:41Speaker 1: then I started hosting all those reunion cruises. Not my
- 19:45Speaker 1: wife and I kind of met, and uh, when we
- 19:49Speaker 1: first met, she wasn't into me, and I think that's
- 19:50Speaker 1: why I was so into her. I was the one
- 19:52Speaker 1: girl I didn't want to talk to me, and uh,
- 19:55Speaker 1: you know, I was kind of a loud, obnoxious guy,
- 19:57Speaker 1: and then ended up working out in the end. You know,
- 20:00Speaker 1: we have three beautiful children now know us seven, Charlotte
- 20:02Speaker 1: Floor and hard one and life is good. So you
- 20:07Speaker 1: guys are one of the secret bachelor couples. There are
- 20:10Speaker 1: so many in this world, apparently that Ben and I
- 20:13Speaker 1: have been learning week by week because part in us. Yes,
- 20:16Speaker 1: we should be educated on the entire history of the franchise. However, um,
- 20:22Speaker 1: I mean I didn't start watching it till I was
- 20:24Speaker 1: twenty two, So I only know from Ali season on.
- 20:27Speaker 1: Oh wow, you're a newcomer. I mean, I guess so,
- 20:30Speaker 1: but you know, newcomer that was eight years ago. It's true.
- 20:33Speaker 1: It's true. Well, we were back in the day before
- 20:35Speaker 1: it was cool to go on reality TV. We went
- 20:38Speaker 1: on reality TV. There was no attle. You know, he
- 20:42Speaker 1: didn't really get famous from being on reality TV. Now,
- 20:45Speaker 1: if you go on and get and sent home on
- 20:46Speaker 1: night one, you get like five, you know, Facebook followers.
- 20:50Speaker 1: You know, it was it was different back then. We
- 20:52Speaker 1: I don't even think there was. I don't even think
- 20:55Speaker 1: Twitter was around back when I was what you are old,
- 20:58Speaker 1: because you're referring to Twitter and Facebook, Yeah, exactly exactly,
- 21:04Speaker 1: and now it's like ma chat and all sorts of
- 21:07Speaker 1: crazy stuff. Yeah, you guys truly had fifteen minutes of fame.
- 21:12Speaker 1: Like it was only fifteen minutes. Yeah, no joke. It
- 21:15Speaker 1: was quick you blink and see later on to the
- 21:18Speaker 1: next season. So I wonder, actually, would that make it
- 21:22Speaker 1: easier actually for you to go onto the show now?
- 21:25Speaker 1: I mean, if if you knew that, like after the
- 21:28Speaker 1: show is done, it's forgotten piece of your life. I mean,
- 21:31Speaker 1: why wouldn't he just do all of these. I asked
- 21:34Speaker 1: up the question towards you, why why why wouldn't he
- 21:37Speaker 1: do all of these? Or why wouldn't I do all these?
- 21:39Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you do all? I mean, if if you
- 21:42Speaker 1: know that the repercussions from this show are very minimal,
- 21:45Speaker 1: don't you think it would be easier than to decide
- 21:47Speaker 1: if you're gonna do it or not. I think it's
- 21:49Speaker 1: worse now to be honest with you. So, like, here's
- 21:52Speaker 1: what I get called phone calls all the time. So
- 21:55Speaker 1: I'll give you guys a nugget here that you probably
- 21:57Speaker 1: don't already help. And that is on one the final
- 22:00Speaker 1: four our pick. Okay, every yeah, what um? Wait a second,
- 22:05Speaker 1: you're talking to a bachelor here he knows what how
- 22:07Speaker 1: it goes? Wait is this Ben Higgins? Wait? What? Ben?
- 22:15Speaker 1: Am I talking to you? Ben Higgin? I didn't even
- 22:19Speaker 1: I didn't know. I didn't even realize that. I'm like,
- 22:21Speaker 1: they're like Ben and Ashley, and I'm like, all right,
- 22:23Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with Jesse. This makes it all
- 22:26Speaker 1: less awkward for us because we honestly have no idea.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Who the heck you are? Perfect? That's awesome, dude. You
- 22:34Speaker 1: know how it ghosts on night one. You know, they
- 22:36Speaker 1: basically time out? Could we just boss? You're a second
- 22:40Speaker 1: realize what just happened? You have no clue? You're like,
- 22:43Speaker 1: who you were talking to? You? I gotta I got
- 22:46Speaker 1: a text message. I got a text message like, hey,
- 22:49Speaker 1: do you want to go on i Hire Radio with
- 22:50Speaker 1: Benn and Ashley. I'm like, sweet, that sounds like fun
- 22:53Speaker 1: I'm all in. Did you think you were on a
- 22:55Speaker 1: radio show and not a podcast? Yeah? I had no
- 22:58Speaker 1: clue what I was doing. They just you know, I
- 22:59Speaker 1: just this is just so good, all right? Anyways, keep going? Yeah,
- 23:06Speaker 1: I know, and you know that I was also on
- 23:07Speaker 1: the show, so I I wasn't up there with the
- 23:10Speaker 1: top four, but I pretty much know how it goes.
- 23:13Speaker 1: What actually, what's your last name? I can Nettie otherwise
- 23:16Speaker 1: known as I. Alright, fair enough, I like it. I
- 23:20Speaker 1: like it. Well, you guys are both nines. Then you
- 23:22Speaker 1: already know what's going on random radio hosts that don't
- 23:26Speaker 1: know about the show, So that's even better. This is
- 23:28Speaker 1: just so funny. This is the best material we've had
- 23:30Speaker 1: so far. Keep it organic. Hey, but Jesse, tell us
- 23:37Speaker 1: what does happen to the Top four Okay, so you know,
- 23:41Speaker 1: you go on your hotel dates, it gets interesting. That's
- 23:44Speaker 1: where they separate you. Um, and that's when I don't know,
- 23:48Speaker 1: for me, I actually kind of realized that I was
- 23:52Speaker 1: on a show and it wasn't I don't know, the
- 23:56Speaker 1: whole rest of the time that I that I went
- 23:58Speaker 1: through the process. It was just kind of like hanging
- 24:00Speaker 1: out with friends. Our season, all of the guys were
- 24:02Speaker 1: super close, and I think that's what made our season,
- 24:06Speaker 1: you know, so successful viewership wise, was they could really
- 24:08Speaker 1: see the fond um. And so even though the producers
- 24:12Speaker 1: were producing a show and creating problem drama solution like
- 24:15Speaker 1: they do in every single season, um, the guys really did.
- 24:19Speaker 1: I mean we when I got married, we had a
- 24:22Speaker 1: lot of the guys from my season in our wedding
- 24:24Speaker 1: as groomsman because we really were close. Um. So when
- 24:28Speaker 1: it went down to final four and they separated the
- 24:30Speaker 1: stall and locked the ball in separate hotel rooms, that's
- 24:32Speaker 1: when the mind games sort of third because you're you're
- 24:37Speaker 1: kind of sitting there and stewing on you know, everything
- 24:40Speaker 1: that's going on or what could be going on that
- 24:42Speaker 1: you don't know about, etcetera, etcetera. Etcetera. And the producers
- 24:46Speaker 1: and the production team do a really good, you know
- 24:48Speaker 1: job of trying to distract you. Oh we're gonna you're
- 24:50Speaker 1: going deep fishing today, or oh you're gonna do that today,
- 24:52Speaker 1: or whatever the case may be. Um, but it really
- 24:55Speaker 1: is a mind mender to sit in there and think like, Okay, well,
- 24:58Speaker 1: I you know, if you're in love with this person,
- 25:01Speaker 1: what the heck are they doing with the other guy?
- 25:03Speaker 1: Or you know what I mean? It's I gets it
- 25:04Speaker 1: really is. Uh, it's difficult, you know what, Jesse, we
- 25:07Speaker 1: do know what you mean. Sorry, I'm gonna stop busting
- 25:11Speaker 1: your balls right now, so it's all good. Me up.
- 25:14Speaker 1: Then I had no clue and I apologize. I you know,
- 25:17Speaker 1: you guys, you guys are way to school than me,
- 25:20Speaker 1: selling up a way better idea of what crafting than
- 25:22Speaker 1: if I'm old school. I honestly I have a couple
- 25:26Speaker 1: of questions for you here. Mostly I'm impressed that you're
- 25:29Speaker 1: so willingly able to give up your time to anybody. Uh.

- 25:53Speaker 1: We could use that, Our team could use it. Jesse,
- 25:55Speaker 1: I heard something that you said a little bit ago,
- 25:58Speaker 1: and I'm still confused, and I'm trying to google is
- 26:00Speaker 1: we're talking. I'm not finding much. You acted like these
- 26:03Speaker 1: reunion cruises where a thing I used to know about
- 26:05Speaker 1: and that actually should know about. I don't know what
- 26:07Speaker 1: you're talking about. Yeah, well, back in the day, if
- 26:11Speaker 1: you go back to the very first Bachelor Path and
- 26:16Speaker 1: you watch the trailer to the very first special Pad,
- 26:20Speaker 1: you will see footage of people like Natalie Gets, David Good,
- 26:24Speaker 1: Jesse Kopak all on a cruise ship. And basically what
- 26:28Speaker 1: happened was that's where the Bachelor pad and what is now?
- 26:31Speaker 1: What is a Bachelor in Paradise? I mean he's been
- 26:33Speaker 1: to so many times over the name he has changed
- 26:35Speaker 1: it like three or four times. But that's where it
- 26:38Speaker 1: all came from. Was I used to host these reunion cruises,
- 26:41Speaker 1: so that all previous contestants could get together. I mean,
- 26:45Speaker 1: we now aren't a part of in a pretty incredible
- 26:47Speaker 1: dating pool. Uh, if you think about it, we've all
- 26:49Speaker 1: went through a very similar experience. We get one another, um,
- 26:53Speaker 1: and it's really cool just to all get together. And
- 26:55Speaker 1: I was actually thinking about hosting lants this summer in
- 26:58Speaker 1: Scott's Sale and this kind of reaching out to some
- 27:01Speaker 1: of you new schoolers and saying, hey, there's you know,
- 27:04Speaker 1: probably five hundred of us old schoolers that you do
- 27:07Speaker 1: smartest don't even know. We'd love to meet you guys. Um.
- 27:10Speaker 1: We love to hang out and share stories and sales
- 27:13Speaker 1: and talk about all the producers and all the silly
- 27:14Speaker 1: things that we've seen happen over the years. And uh,
- 27:17Speaker 1: that's kind of how you know it all came along
- 27:19Speaker 1: was we're all getting together on cruise ships and having
- 27:22Speaker 1: a good old time. And production came to me and said, hey,
- 27:26Speaker 1: we want to film this, And I said, I have
- 27:27Speaker 1: a really good idea. Why don't we put twenty guys
- 27:30Speaker 1: and twenty girls in the house like Survivor and do
- 27:32Speaker 1: challenges and bring sponsors in and uh, let's call it
- 27:35Speaker 1: the Castaways. And you know the next thing I know
- 27:40Speaker 1: there's a show on and uh Lowisa Ryecroft co hosting
- 27:42Speaker 1: it with Chris Harrison, and they called the Beast for past.
- 27:45Speaker 1: So it's pretty interesting where you should have got credit,
- 27:52Speaker 1: Like place doesn't give credit to people. Come on, you
- 27:54Speaker 1: guys know better than that, Jessie. That was your baby,
- 27:59Speaker 1: your brain child, no doubt, no doubt. But you know what,
- 28:03Speaker 1: I'm I'm pretty stoke, good life. I have the most
- 28:07Speaker 1: beautiful family, I think, and I don't really follow the
- 28:10Speaker 1: show too much anymore, but I think I'm the only
- 28:13Speaker 1: guy with three Bachelor fambinos. So I'll just take that
- 28:17Speaker 1: ground and walk away call it good. Three Bachelor kids.
- 28:21Speaker 1: I think you may hold the record right now. Yeah,
- 28:24Speaker 1: I think so. You're you're claiming I just want to
- 28:28Speaker 1: get this freight. You're claiming that you are the creator
- 28:30Speaker 1: for a Bachelor path. I didn't say I created the
- 28:34Speaker 1: Bachelor Pad. I said I created the Castaways, And the
- 28:37Speaker 1: original idea was to rank twenty guys and twenty girls
- 28:41Speaker 1: and create a show where we did challenges like Survivor etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.
- 28:46Speaker 1: And I did share this idea with production. They came
- 28:49Speaker 1: and filmed it because they loved the idea so much,
- 28:52Speaker 1: and they used the footage from my reunions. You can
- 28:55Speaker 1: go watch it in the Bachelor Pad the first you know,
- 28:59Speaker 1: before they ever shot the first Bachelor Pad series. Uh,
- 29:02Speaker 1: they used the footage for my reunion cruises exactly, No way.
- 29:09Speaker 1: Ye wow, Jesse, that's a that's an incredible story. Google facts.
- 29:14Speaker 1: You can go google that stuff. Okay, so listen, UM,
- 29:19Speaker 1: I think that what you had was obviously a terrific
- 29:22Speaker 1: idea turned out to be a huge part of the franchise.
- 29:25Speaker 1: I've always wanted to one put Paradise on a cruise,
- 29:28Speaker 1: so it's like, not in Mexico, but next it will
- 29:30Speaker 1: be Bachelor on a cruise because I've been on eighteen
- 29:33Speaker 1: cruises in my life and I'm just a huge cruise fan.
- 29:35Speaker 1: So you guys used to go on cruises just for
- 29:37Speaker 1: like our reunion, for yourselves, not not for fans. No. Well,
- 29:41Speaker 1: so we did do some fan cruises I think one
- 29:43Speaker 1: or two um at one point. Um, but we did.
- 29:48Speaker 1: I mean it was awesome because we would go to
- 29:50Speaker 1: the cruise line to be like, hey, um, why don't
- 29:53Speaker 1: you give us cabins fifty cruise carts um? And They're like,
- 29:58Speaker 1: why would we do such a thing. And I'm like, well,
- 30:00Speaker 1: I'll get you in People magazine for the next four
- 30:03Speaker 1: weeks straight. And they're like, okay, perfect, and they would.
- 30:05Speaker 1: And so obviously, when you call all your friends in
- 30:07Speaker 1: the show and you're like, hey, here's a you know,
- 30:09Speaker 1: ticket to go on a cruise for five days from
- 30:12Speaker 1: you know, l A to Baja back and here's a
- 30:14Speaker 1: free booth card, who's gonna say no? Of course, you know,
- 30:17Speaker 1: we're all single, ready to be going, no jobs really
- 30:19Speaker 1: or whatever. And uh so we all went, had a
- 30:22Speaker 1: great time and you know, it was cool and we met,
- 30:24Speaker 1: We met a lot of people, made a lot of friends,
- 30:26Speaker 1: and you know, I just had a really great time.
- 30:28Speaker 1: It was it really wasn't incredible experience how I met
- 30:30Speaker 1: my wife. I met my wife on the first cruise
- 30:32Speaker 1: I ever host. Well, I will be calling real curbean
- 30:35Speaker 1: after this, just kidding. I've actually already emailed them multiple
- 30:38Speaker 1: times about this. Get back to me. You're gonna keep
- 30:42Speaker 1: getting your ideas, UHL, and you gotta be careful. Actually,
- 30:45Speaker 1: I want to know today, uh just to feel just
- 30:48Speaker 1: a little bit, uh if you invited a bunch of
- 30:51Speaker 1: the newbies on a cruise. Okay, take away the TV cameras,
- 30:55Speaker 1: to take away any type of parenting or restriction. How
- 31:01Speaker 1: wild does that get? I I don't know if I
- 31:03Speaker 1: could handle it. So now it's it's so when when
- 31:07Speaker 1: we used to do it, we are we were all
- 31:09Speaker 1: obviously not married, no kids, and it was a whole
- 31:12Speaker 1: different ballgame, and it got my point exactly, my point
- 31:15Speaker 1: of pretty incredible. But now, you know, you've got to remember,
- 31:20Speaker 1: I'm pre Jason Mesnick. Jason Mesnick and I went Final
- 31:23Speaker 1: two and Jason became the next Bachelor, and you know
- 31:26Speaker 1: I won the season. So that's how long ago it is.
- 31:28Speaker 1: So now Jason and I, well he had a son then,
- 31:31Speaker 1: but now we all have you know, small childer in etcetera, etcetera.
- 31:34Speaker 1: So if I was to do one, and I did
- 31:36Speaker 1: it here in Scott's Dale, it would probably be you know,
- 31:39Speaker 1: a little let's call on PG maybe yeah, maybe PG
- 31:46Speaker 1: thirteen with maybe a evening flash rated are but I
- 31:50Speaker 1: think it would be way more chill than they used
- 31:52Speaker 1: to be. I mean, there was a long photos that
- 31:54Speaker 1: could not get posted to the interweb back in the
- 31:56Speaker 1: day because just uh, you know, they just would have
- 32:01Speaker 1: gotten flagged immediately. There were a lot of hot tops
- 32:04Speaker 1: that had to be drained after I get together. Let's
- 32:06Speaker 1: put it that way. Come on, Oh man, Yeah, unbelievable.
- 32:12Speaker 1: That's you. That's youtubeable too. The there's a video of
- 32:15Speaker 1: us after the video of the hot tub guy draining
- 32:20Speaker 1: the hot top and he said, this water is spent?
- 32:25Speaker 1: Is this? Does this happen in Paradise? Is that the thing?
- 32:28Speaker 1: I've never gone in the hot time in Paradise? Proud
- 32:31Speaker 1: of it? Oh really, I wouldn't either. You get those
- 32:34Speaker 1: weird bumping stuffy Jesse. We appreciate you coming on me

- 37:50Speaker 1: one of the most popular things we've ever talked about
- 37:52Speaker 1: on this podcast. I'm shocked that so many people love
- 37:54Speaker 1: to Actually, I'm nervous and I'm excited. There was something
- 37:58Speaker 1: to do here with again, yes, and I don't know
- 38:02Speaker 1: where this is leading, all right, So last week we
- 38:04Speaker 1: talked about died in house dot Com. How I spent
- 38:06Speaker 1: eleven dollars to make sure that nobody died in my
- 38:09Speaker 1: new apartment because I got such an amazing deal on it,
- 38:12Speaker 1: I assumed that somebody must have died in a very
- 38:16Speaker 1: graphic way in there. Well, that didn't happen that the
- 38:20Speaker 1: eleven dollars proved that nobody died in my apartment, which
- 38:23Speaker 1: is great. So um. I was walking the dog a
- 38:25Speaker 1: couple of days ago, and uh, I told my neighbor,
- 38:29Speaker 1: my current my neighbor from the place that I've been
- 38:31Speaker 1: in the past year and a half. And I told him.
- 38:34Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I'm sorry, I'm moving. I'm gonna
- 38:37Speaker 1: miss you, you know, like you're the best part about
- 38:39Speaker 1: living in this building. Blah blah blah. And I was like,
- 38:42Speaker 1: but I got this amazing deal like down the street
- 38:45Speaker 1: on this and I was so shocked by the dealer.
- 38:48Speaker 1: I had to go use died in house dot com
- 38:50Speaker 1: and I was like, and it's clear nobody died in it.
- 38:53Speaker 1: And he goes, wait to say, do you know that
- 38:55Speaker 1: somebody died in the house, in the apartment that you
- 38:57Speaker 1: live in right now? No, us, the apartment that I
- 39:01Speaker 1: lived in for the past year and a half, since
- 39:03Speaker 1: September two thousand and sixteen, somebody died in it. Joke
- 39:09Speaker 1: is on me. I slept in it one other time since,
- 39:13Speaker 1: like you know, I had one other sleep left in it.
- 39:16Speaker 1: Thank god. Didn't have more than that. I mean out
- 39:20Speaker 1: of respect for the person that has passed away. UM,
- 39:23Speaker 1: I know everybody out there listening, And if you want
- 39:25Speaker 1: to get mad at me for this, go ahead, because
- 39:27Speaker 1: I know everybody wants to actually here. Do you have
- 39:29Speaker 1: any of the backstory? Wait? Do I have any of
- 39:32Speaker 1: the backstore? And the guy on the guy that passed away? Like,
- 39:35Speaker 1: how did this happen? Was the elder that gout said?
- 39:37Speaker 1: You know, I had somebody passed away in my house
- 39:38Speaker 1: and that was completely fine with me. He was He
- 39:40Speaker 1: was an elderly gentleman. He loved the house that I
- 39:43Speaker 1: live in a ton he lived here fifty years to
- 39:45Speaker 1: I have no problem with it. But like, is this like, uh,
- 39:49Speaker 1: some type of of murder scene in your house? Um,
- 39:54Speaker 1: he had a terminal illness. He was in his mid sixties.
- 39:58Speaker 1: He lived alone. Yeah, my awesome neighbor ed is just
- 40:01Speaker 1: like he's like the Lavits Cravitz of the neighborhood. He
- 40:04Speaker 1: kind of knows what happens in every single apartment. I'm
- 40:06Speaker 1: sure most of our listeners have no idea who loves
- 40:08Speaker 1: Cravitz is, But that's that's the neighbor on Bewitched and
- 40:11Speaker 1: she looks into the house and she's always like, what
- 40:12Speaker 1: suspicious is going on? Anyway, I mean, that's okay. That again,
- 40:18Speaker 1: I would not have a problem with living in the
- 40:21Speaker 1: house somebody. I mean, that's a terrible scenario. But I'm
- 40:24Speaker 1: glad that your neighbor kind of showed you actually stop
- 40:27Speaker 1: freaking out about this, like that happens. It's natural, Like,
- 40:31Speaker 1: it's not super scary, but you can you can sleep
- 40:34Speaker 1: in the house. No, No, my my neighbor is super dramatic.
- 40:36Speaker 1: You got a huge laugh out of this. He thought
- 40:39Speaker 1: it was a little bit creepy too. Anyways, I'm happy
- 40:48Speaker 1: that that you're moving on. But that is kind of
- 40:51Speaker 1: funny how it all turns back. We haven't gotten a
- 40:54Speaker 1: ton of stories from people over last week about using
- 40:57Speaker 1: what do you call this website that you're talking about

- 41:14Speaker 1: for Ashley to look on this website like is this
- 41:17Speaker 1: an acceptable thing? Or is this just odd and she

- 41:21Speaker 1: to say. You're oddly okay with living in a dead
- 41:26Speaker 1: prison house, and I'm maybe oddly not okay. Yeah, yeah,

- 45:31Speaker 1: go in, nobody mentioned that that's where the two of
- 45:34Speaker 1: you got married. Correct, Yes, where we got married. That
- 45:38Speaker 1: place is so beautiful, unbelievable. Yeah, I don't feel like
- 45:45Speaker 1: I mean, even though it's been a while since you
- 45:46Speaker 1: two have been on the show, and you know that,
- 45:49Speaker 1: I feel like you're the essence of J p N
- 45:53Speaker 1: actually has not left the show. Is very proud of
- 45:55Speaker 1: you saying this to butter us up No, yeah, yeah,
- 46:01Speaker 1: but are you up for one? I don't have much
- 46:03Speaker 1: to get out of there. You came on the podcast already,
- 46:05Speaker 1: So thanks, you're so sweet. We're blessing. Oh it's so funny.
- 46:13Speaker 1: It is like we feel like old news, like you know,
- 46:16Speaker 1: we this is like what eight, nine, ten years ago,
- 46:19Speaker 1: so it's like seven. Yeah it was seven according to deductions.
- 46:27Speaker 1: Actually been married by we're year and a half. Yeah,
- 46:30Speaker 1: I guess you're read. I guess it's more like seven
- 46:32Speaker 1: and a half. But it's so funny because when I
- 46:35Speaker 1: watch now, I'm I'm I'm just as in it as
- 46:39Speaker 1: anyone else, Like I don't even feel like it was
- 46:41Speaker 1: a part of my life, Like that feels like a
- 46:43Speaker 1: life time ago. It's so funny. Yeah, we're back to
- 46:47Speaker 1: being fans. I would agree that. Actually, my question like, actually,
- 46:52Speaker 1: you've been on the show like paradise and everything. Oh no, sorry, Kendie,
- 46:57Speaker 1: I guess you have to ask you that right now.
- 46:58Speaker 1: Do you feel like that too, because I get asking
- 47:00Speaker 1: j pre thing like I'm just a fan now, I
- 47:02Speaker 1: don't really like I don't feel like it was a
- 47:05Speaker 1: part of my life as much anymore. Really, you were
- 47:08Speaker 1: just on the show, and you know February, I like
- 47:13Speaker 1: think when I watched it and I'm on it like
- 47:15Speaker 1: I did it, But when I'm not on the show,
- 47:16Speaker 1: I feel very distant from it. I don't feel distant
- 47:19Speaker 1: from it yet. Yeah, I think you need a little yea,
- 47:23Speaker 1: a little more time. I would say two years of
- 47:27Speaker 1: no Bachelor air time going to happen. You know, you guys,
- 47:36Speaker 1: you're the first couple that I felt like I watched
- 47:40Speaker 1: and I truly felt like they found their soul mates.
- 47:44Speaker 1: Because actually I think here season was the second Bachelor
- 47:47Speaker 1: that season I ever watched, but it was like just
- 47:49Speaker 1: totally different from what I saw previously. I was like, this,
- 47:53Speaker 1: this is real, genuine lasting love. Ah, that's so sweet.
- 47:58Speaker 1: He's driving me crazy every single day of my life.
- 48:02Speaker 1: I know, but that's part of the fun, right, that's party. Thanks.
- 48:09Speaker 1: What made it different to the two of you? I
- 48:11Speaker 1: mean I think actually I both agree we watched it
- 48:14Speaker 1: and we realized that, you know, you two had something special.
- 48:17Speaker 1: But what was in your opinion? What was that? What
- 48:23Speaker 1: do you want to answer? I mean, I don't really know.
- 48:25Speaker 1: I feel like everybody asked us was the secret. I
- 48:28Speaker 1: think we both went on the show for for kind
- 48:34Speaker 1: of like an experiment and just to see what happened,
- 48:37Speaker 1: Like we had very low expectations. We went on just
- 48:41Speaker 1: kind of as ourselves, not trying to achieve anything, with
- 48:46Speaker 1: no expectation of becoming anything. We already had our lives
- 48:50Speaker 1: kind of set up for us, our careers set up
- 48:52Speaker 1: for us. I think we went into it with very
- 48:54Speaker 1: genuine emotions, um, and we just happened. It's just like
- 48:58Speaker 1: going through a bar her Like sometimes you go and
- 49:01Speaker 1: you meet someone you know, you you you know, you
- 49:04Speaker 1: find somebody that you love, or you find something that
- 49:07Speaker 1: you connect with. But for us, we're lucky enough specifind
- 49:10Speaker 1: someone that we connected with. It was a totally weird
- 49:14Speaker 1: environment and then we just flo flourished after we got
- 49:19Speaker 1: up the show. I think, yeah, I don't think it
- 49:21Speaker 1: really started until, you know, way after we got off
- 49:25Speaker 1: the show. I mean that was just the cattalyst for everything.
- 49:28Speaker 1: And it's just like in life, you know, relationship to work,
- 49:32Speaker 1: they don't work. People meet the craziest ways, like we
- 49:35Speaker 1: just happened to this way, and then we got on
- 49:37Speaker 1: with our lives together. And fortunately for us, we grew
- 49:41Speaker 1: together a supposed growing upon you know, like GP still
- 49:47Speaker 1: in construction and as she still dentists, um in real
- 49:52Speaker 1: estate development yet because she is so a pediatric. Yeah,
- 49:55Speaker 1: so we kind of continued on our past. I love that. Yeah,
- 50:00Speaker 1: that's good. Actually, all right, I'm gonna have to be clear.
- 50:06Speaker 1: I would love for you at Ashley Gap because I
- 50:10Speaker 1: would ask you myself, but I don't know if you
- 50:12Speaker 1: could as well as you do your theory on why
- 50:15Speaker 1: bachelorette couples were more than back couples. Have the answer
- 50:20Speaker 1: to this, Well, why are you asking me this? This
- 50:23Speaker 1: is a great question for the Ashley h Well, because
- 50:27Speaker 1: because I wanted to share why, I wanted to share
- 50:30Speaker 1: your opinion on whine that works. Agree and disagree. Oh,
- 50:34Speaker 1: because I think that I don't know, I don't I
- 50:36Speaker 1: don't know why I think that is. I mean percent,
- 50:40Speaker 1: I think it's because women can like dig through all
- 50:44Speaker 1: of the bs, get past the looks, get past the
- 50:48Speaker 1: sex appeal, and like find out what's really important to them,
- 50:50Speaker 1: Like they can navigate through that. I think men have
- 50:53Speaker 1: a more difficult time, Like there's so many like boots
- 50:57Speaker 1: and sex appeal and lost and I just think they
- 51:01Speaker 1: have a hard time navigating for that. So they're just
- 51:05Speaker 1: I said truths I said last time. I love but
- 51:09Speaker 1: you know you kind of just I feel like men
- 51:18Speaker 1: have a hard time with that and women you know,
- 51:20Speaker 1: you know what's important. It's just my humble, a little opinion.
- 51:24Speaker 1: I'm totally crossing like a respect boundary when I bring
- 51:27Speaker 1: this up. You're a little lustful for Bentley? Oh? I
- 51:37Speaker 1: mean that dragged on way more on the show, on
- 51:41Speaker 1: the like on the airing than it actually did in
- 51:44Speaker 1: real life. In real life, it was like three days,
- 51:46Speaker 1: no King, we need to know, and I was like,
- 51:53Speaker 1: let it go, guys, like, get over it. Yeah. I
- 52:00Speaker 1: like to actually love that that you whispered because you
- 52:05Speaker 1: felt like you're offending somebody, Like not everybody can still
- 52:08Speaker 1: hear you toful of I know. I just like, Eventley,
- 52:20Speaker 1: is this this character from the Bachelor past that I've
- 52:24Speaker 1: always wondered why hasn't washed up on the shores of
- 52:27Speaker 1: Bachelor in Paradise because he's such a drama king. Well,
- 52:32Speaker 1: you know, I think he's really smart and he just
- 52:35Speaker 1: chose to stay out of it because I think it
- 52:37Speaker 1: affected his life. I think it really really affected his
- 52:41Speaker 1: life with you know, the way that he was I
- 52:44Speaker 1: don't know if I can say portrayed or the things
- 52:46Speaker 1: he did and how it looks. I think it really
- 52:48Speaker 1: affected him. I mean, I don't know. I've never spoken
- 52:50Speaker 1: to him, but I think that it really negatively affected him,
- 52:53Speaker 1: and he wouldn't bring it back into his life. I
- 52:55Speaker 1: would be my guests, I wouldn't. It was a positive
- 53:01Speaker 1: experience for him. I just think he has a lot
- 53:04Speaker 1: to lose if he if he went back. I'm looking
- 53:08Speaker 1: at pictures. I just googled kidneys. Have no clue y'all
- 53:11Speaker 1: talking about popped up a picture of your Chris siris
- 53:15Speaker 1: and standings bide my side. Actually, I you have to
- 53:18Speaker 1: google it. Um, Chris Harrison looks so young, yeah, and
- 53:26Speaker 1: say looking at this picture and like, honestly, like he
- 53:30Speaker 1: had to be like, you're eight, right, I mean he
- 53:33Speaker 1: did the same. Oh my god. I think Harrison gets
- 53:38Speaker 1: better looking as he gets old. I totally think so too.
- 53:42Speaker 1: Oh yeah. And I also think one thing about Chris Harrison,
- 53:46Speaker 1: I when you meet him, he's so extraordinary and charismatic
- 53:50Speaker 1: that he's like I love him more in person than
- 53:54Speaker 1: I ever did from watching him, you know on the bathroom,
- 53:56Speaker 1: Like there's something about him. He has a spark, he
- 53:59Speaker 1: has something I don't know, He's got such swad. Yes,
- 54:03Speaker 1: that's what it is. Like confidence, These are so cool
- 54:06Speaker 1: and funny swear. I love it. Jeez, I feel like
- 54:12Speaker 1: I feel gets more loved every year. And I get why.
- 54:15Speaker 1: I mean, I love Chris, uh, but I mean that
- 54:18Speaker 1: guy is literally like some of these hosts, you kind
- 54:21Speaker 1: of get sick up right, time wears on a bit.
- 54:24Speaker 1: Chris time does not matter to him, And just the
- 54:27Speaker 1: older he gets, the more relatable he gets with this
- 54:30Speaker 1: next generation kind of coming up through. Um, it's super impressive.
- 54:35Speaker 1: And I think that's the part of his job that
- 54:36Speaker 1: we don't give enough credit for. It's just how relatable
- 54:39Speaker 1: he stayed. The vast donation. Yeah, everybody loves them so good, right,
- 54:47Speaker 1: I gotta quite good word. It really is what Okay,
- 54:53Speaker 1: as a bachelor at winter Now you've kind of moved on,
- 54:58Speaker 1: but if you could go back to those moments, is
- 55:00Speaker 1: it tough for you to watch the show back? So
- 55:02Speaker 1: I didn't watch the last few episodes, but I think
- 55:05Speaker 1: it's at that point, Like I was fine for the
- 55:08Speaker 1: for the for the majority of it watching it back,
- 55:11Speaker 1: but at that point, the two of us that had
- 55:13Speaker 1: not seen each other in a couple of months, and
- 55:15Speaker 1: the novelty of of of hiding it all and it
- 55:19Speaker 1: kind of wore off, and we really just wanted to
- 55:22Speaker 1: be together, be at in the open, and move on
- 55:24Speaker 1: with our lives. I think the last few episodes I
- 55:27Speaker 1: didn't watch, just because we were really just kind of
- 55:29Speaker 1: sick of it all and wanted to move on. But
- 55:33Speaker 1: it's from what I did watch, nothing ever really bothered me.
- 55:37Speaker 1: You were so overconfident because I had been locked up
- 55:41Speaker 1: for like two maybe it was week three, but yeah,
- 55:48Speaker 1: I think it was a week three game. But it's
- 55:52Speaker 1: good one thing that you. I wrote you so every
- 55:55Speaker 1: day from what I decided it was going to be JP.
- 55:58Speaker 1: It was probably a week three or maybe seen the half,
- 56:01Speaker 1: but I wrote him a journal entry every single day,
- 56:04Speaker 1: like explaining well, why I did this and why did
- 56:06Speaker 1: that and how I was feeling. And we still even
- 56:09Speaker 1: have that journal. So he kind of was really confident
- 56:13Speaker 1: all along and even playing it back like he knew
- 56:15Speaker 1: what was going from my head at certain times. So
- 56:18Speaker 1: I feel like that was kind of easy breezy for
- 56:19Speaker 1: us because it was such a clear choice for me. Um,
- 56:23Speaker 1: I don't love that story. The journal really kind of
- 56:29Speaker 1: like it's not that I ever had any out, but
- 56:33Speaker 1: you know, just when I thought that maybe there could
- 56:35Speaker 1: be about to hand me the journal just kind of
- 56:37Speaker 1: to reaffirm all of my thoughts through the entire quote
- 56:41Speaker 1: unquote process. It was just, h my god, I'm such
- 56:44Speaker 1: a good girlfriend. You were you? That's true. That's so weird,
- 56:53Speaker 1: that's lovely. I think so many that's a great idea
- 56:57Speaker 1: for the future bachelor and bachelor to do, especially and
- 57:00Speaker 1: they've really figured out who their person is and then
- 57:02Speaker 1: the rest of it is all just going along with
- 57:04Speaker 1: the TV show of it. Yeah, because you never really
- 57:07Speaker 1: known you could pick their work for it, but this
- 57:09Speaker 1: was just it was just it was perfect. It was
- 57:12Speaker 1: kind of love that. Yeah. I got one last question
- 57:16Speaker 1: for you guys, who have you loved watching on this
- 57:21Speaker 1: franchise since you guys have departed from it. That's a
- 57:26Speaker 1: good one too. Yeah, but no, actually I've never yelled
- 57:35Speaker 1: at the TV more than at you, Like you're so
- 57:40Speaker 1: beautifully of so much going on, like get it together,
- 57:44Speaker 1: like walking girl, be confident, like you could be the
- 57:47Speaker 1: most beautiful person in the whole franchise. That's like you
- 57:52Speaker 1: don't know it, you know what I mean, it's like
- 57:55Speaker 1: working girl. Thank you. But to scream over the phone now,
- 58:01Speaker 1: oh well, I kind of like that. I haven't out
- 58:04Speaker 1: emotion in you. Oh you know, I really loved watching
- 58:10Speaker 1: and you'll never guess Ari. Yeah, I don't know, and
- 58:15Speaker 1: I still can't put my finger on it. Like every
- 58:18Speaker 1: all the past seasons, I've been like, Okay, you know,
- 58:20Speaker 1: I'm just a fan. But with Aria, I was really
- 58:23Speaker 1: into it. I don't know, I just liked him and
- 58:27Speaker 1: I thought he was really I mean, I thought he
- 58:30Speaker 1: was sincere and I loved his the way he responded.
- 58:33Speaker 1: I felt like he was really listening to them and
- 58:35Speaker 1: responding truthfully and sincerely. I mean, unfortunate everything that happened
- 58:40Speaker 1: and how everything happened, but in the moment, like I really,
- 58:43Speaker 1: I really enjoyed. I really enjoyed this season. That's nice
- 58:47Speaker 1: to hear that. Yeah, yeah, that's beg of you to say.
- 58:50Speaker 1: It's it's nice to hear because I think, even on
- 58:53Speaker 1: this podcast, we've been overly tough on Aria. You know,
- 58:56Speaker 1: I think he had his own things that weren't great.
- 58:59Speaker 1: But it's nice to be you to be supportive of
- 59:01Speaker 1: that guy. Because at this point, as we're talking about earlier,
- 59:04Speaker 1: you know, before you all came on, I'm really happy
- 59:06Speaker 1: they're buying houses they go to the traveling together. If
- 59:09Speaker 1: we hope that this show leads to love stories like
- 59:13Speaker 1: hes found one, let's celebrate that. And hey, I want
- 59:16Speaker 1: to celebrate the two of you coming on. Thank you

- 59:28Speaker 1: That was fab and well I love being fit, which
- 59:33Speaker 1: I sometimes I'm not like right now, but I'm always fun.
- 59:36Speaker 1: And you know who else gets a fab Fit phone
- 59:40Speaker 1: box like myself, delivered right to their door every season?
- 59:43Speaker 1: Chloe Kardashian, Bethany Frankel, Martin McBride, Ashley Tuesday, Ashley Simpson,
- 59:49Speaker 1: NICKI Read, I, Usia Curry, and so many more. We're
- 59:53Speaker 1: all fans of the fab Fit phone Box. I find
- 59:55Speaker 1: something in it every season that I rebuy, and you well,
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: for the foreseeable future, most of the country is wondering
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: if Spring is ever going to get here, because honestly,
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: here we are in l A and I think it's
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: like fifty five degrees today. That's not cool. But don't worry.
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: The Vivid fun Box for Spring is available now and
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: it's here to warm you up. And you've got to
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: get it now before it sells out. Here are some
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: of the contents in the spring box. There's a Rachel
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: Pally reversible clutch, which you guys have heard me talk
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: about a little bit before on this podcast. It's great
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: because it's not like your standard clutch. It can hold
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: a lot more because it's got a huge pocket. And
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: then there's a free people and Understated I'm ask, which
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: I love because it has this gel insert that you
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: can freeze and then you can ice your face in
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: the morning, as you've seen that I like to do
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: on TV. It also really really covers all the cracks,
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: so it's perfect if you're on an airplane or just
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: trying to get a very very dark sleeping space. There's
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: also a Anderson Lily candle, some Murad skin perfecting lotion,
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: and Physique fifties sevens of massage roller. Really really like that.

- 1:01:33Speaker 1: I think, from from Jesse to j P and Athlete, Uh,
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: even the recapital in the news. I feel like this podcast. Uh,
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: this is a good offseason podcast, you think. Yeah, I
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: really love that interview with Jesse. I mean, who knew
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: that he was the unspoken executive producer of Bachelor Pad
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: and Paradise. I mean, I think I hope that's true.
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: And even if it's not, it's nice that he thinks
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: that he is that in his own mind. It's really good.
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: It's really nice. Hey, I need to talk to you
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: about something. Oh is it? Is? It? Beg? Are we
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: here yet? We're here? And this is something that I
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: need to talk through with you. Yeah, here's the thing.
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: And tell me if I'm crazy, and tell me if
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: I'm off. But there's one thing that people do and
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: they seem to be impressed by it that just completely
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: grosses me out. And here's why I'm okay with human seed.
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: Human I'm totally all right with us releasing ourselves in
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: whatever way we speak it or we need to. But
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: there is a time and a place. There is a
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: respect level to how we do. And what I'm talking
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: about to day is perfect. I it's really really anti
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: purfing person. I think it is absolutely disgusting. And here's
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: why I really like people, and I find people very intriguing.
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: But my issue is that when you burp, it's coming
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: out of your mouth, and that's the same mouth that
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: the potentially in my in my world, if you're female,
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: in other worlds, whatever you're into, I could be kissing
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: that mouth. I'm all right with parting. I think that's great.
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: I get it you need to release yourself. But when
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: you burn out loud, especially in front of me, and
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: especially when I can smell, there is nothing in my
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: life that discussed me more then knowing that that came
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: out of something that I could be intersecting with. So
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: that my picking the day, and and and and here's
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: my my thoughts towards people is when you're at a
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: restaurant around a bunch of people, when you're in line
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: at a grocery store around a bunch of people, when
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: you're out having drinks around a bunch of people, at
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: a bar, at church, at school, far respectful of the
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: people around. You take a step away, stop grossing everybody else.
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: You're just you've got to do it quietly. That's how
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: bathrooms are for I'm speaking smelling what's coming out of
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: your stomach. I don't need to I like, yes, you
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: know why I like that because you didn't take it back.
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: There was no sermon. You just hate burping. And I
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: think burping is disgusting too. I think it's one of
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: your life, you know. I don't want to smell what's
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: coming out of your stomach. Well, the same thing is
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: happening when you fart. And I have to say my
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: mom hates it. She was one time listening to the
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: podcast and she listened to it all the time. But
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: she's like, use the F word and I was like, no,
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: I didn't. It's PG three. It's like PG and she's like, no,
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: you use the word fart. I hate that word. And
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, what I hate that word too. But
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: past gas sounds just as a gross so it's all gross.
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: But I have to say that I I'm the farter.
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: I am not a burper. H there's also a tuting,
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: but I don't like it. I don't look at all.
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: But but I'm farter. I barely ever burp. I always
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: say that I maybe four times a year, and the
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: littlest things like oops um. But there is something disgusting
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: about like having a friend who's just like sitting in
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: your family room and constantly burping, and then like you
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: can keep it in your mouth, like you could burp
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: and like have your mouth closed and then you just,
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: you know, breathe out your nose. It's just you don't
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: have to make that sound and then blow it out.
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: I'm with you, know, so, I think there are two
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: times to people in the world. People actually I heeart
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: media dot com, email us, let us know who are you?
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: Why are you the way you are? And what would
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: you rather be around? At a room room of starter um?
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: And and there is no neither okay that neither question
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: you you either road outlets there be honest with yourself
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: both of lead are you the far purer? And what
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: room would you rather be in? There's no between here.
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: People are going to say that burping doesn't spread the
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: smell as potently. And here's the thing. You're right, but
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: at least it's farting. You can like go to the
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: bathroom like squat down then you get it all out. Oh,
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: actually just got to miss a limit to so unbelievable. Hey,
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: actually today's gonna last. I want to throw us quick.
