  Speaker 3: It was so fun and I just I love watching
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: you have two beautiful boys. Are you guys, done you think.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we actually thought we were pregnant about six months ago,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: and it was terrifying at first because I'm fifty three,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: so it's like for me to have a kid at
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: this age. I mean, IBB seventy one when they graduate,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: like you know, not even not even thinking about it.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: But we all of a sudden thought were pregnant. And
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: I was like, first of all, how this happened? Because
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: our five year old sleeps in our bed almost every
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: single night at some point or not.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't. I can't get them out.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: We were trying everything. We just bought bump beds. It
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: works two nights, and we try to make it like
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: a party, like it's your birthday party here. Yeah, he snores,
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: he's It's hard, especially when they get bigger, yau, you
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: know how it goes. It's like tetris, so like flipping
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: around all night. You're like, ah, I got kicked.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: I get I feel like yeah exactly, going to say
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: in the face the lower back, like I'll wake up
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: at four in the morning and just go just get
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: up and take a pillow to the guy. Yeah, I
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: was like, why I need I need to get sometimes sleep,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: But yeah, we thought we were pregnant, and we were
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: excited for a second because we thought, well, maybe this
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: would be the girl that we always wanted. But then
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: the more I started going down the rabbit hole, I'm like,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, thankfully I'm young, in okay shape and stuff
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: like that, but I'm like, I'm not gonna I'm gonna
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: be seventy one in high school, Like this is ridiculous.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: That always the graduation you think of.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know, it's those eighteen years, but I'm like,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: am I ever not going to have to work? Like?
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Am I ever going to be able just to stay
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: home and enjoy some type of golden years?
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Probably not?
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: So yeah, well that would be exciting, but I totally
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: get it. I was on the fence. I'm forty now,
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: and my husband like, if he was like, I'm good
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: with two, I would have been like, perfect, we've got
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: a boy, We've got a girl. But it was kind
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: of like now or never, and like that happens. Great.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: I had like two kind of miscarriages leading up to
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: this one. So as scary as you get older too,
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they treat me like geriatric, like I have
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: to go every two weeks now and it's just been
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: a lot harder this pregnancy, just because I'm older and
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: I'm just two little ones around. I can barely even
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: like bend over to put my shoes on.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: I can only imagine. I mean, you don't.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: First of all, you look radiant, you look lovely. And well,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: my wife was thirty five she gave birth to Grayson,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: our first, and that age they literally called they said
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: she was geriatric then, and she was angry as a hornet.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: She was not happy with that.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, But you know it's kind of nice. They
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: give you extra care.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's very true.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: You have to do like more tech like towards end,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: which is kind of nice, Like you do the NST
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: testing where you go and they monitor the baby closely.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I just put a spin on it. But yeah,
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: it's so fun. It's honestly, it's everything I have dreamt
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: it to be. I mean, the days are are long
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: and years are short. It's so true what they say
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: all the Yeah, but I just I just love being
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: a mom.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: I really Cliches are cliches for a reason though, right, Like,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, they come from some and that's what I've
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: heard that one a lot. And I I agree with you.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: I swear by it. It's like, you know, I'll stay up,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: you know, like my one got sick the other night
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: and I stayed up with them all night, and I
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: had an appointment the next morning at eight am, and
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: I was out the door, but I was like, you know,

• 10:04
  Speaker 1: But it's so good because you know what it does.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, it immediately takes me back to that season,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: makes me remember all the things that you were doing
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: on the show that I was like, oh my god,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: I just wish I had the nerve to say things
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: in those moments that you would just say you'd be like,
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: I got the road, you know, and it's.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: Just good and they made an autitude. It was God
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: the memes that came out after my season and how
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: much I got made fun of it was like a
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: love hate. Either people like me or they hated me.
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: So oh, that is so funny.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Boss. I remember during my season, which was when was
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: when was your guys season? What?
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: What Bashler?
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: Were you guys sixteen? So I think it was like
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: around twenty eleven, which seems okay crazy, It seems.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Like that's with three right, you are an og That's
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: why I love having you on the show. Yeah, And
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I was two thousand and two, two thousand and three,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: right with Trista and then and then with my season,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: and so you were you were eight years later and
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: it was still like the I'm not here to make
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: friends mantra, which I know I'm almost positive if it
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: didn't start, if someone didn't say that at least once
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: on my season, I know there was something that you
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: just like took to the next level in a way
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: that you were kind of like, I'm here for the
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: guy and this fits into my So I have a
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: theory about the show, and I sent it for years, Gant.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: I bet you agree with it. I bet you agree.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: So people always say, you know, you have any advice
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: for the new bachel I'm like, yeah, it's not about you,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: and they're like, what do you mean. I go, well,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: if the guys go on the show and they think
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: they're going to turn into Ben Affleck when they come
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: off the show, they are sadly mistaken.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: You go on the show and you realize it.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: Has nothing to do with you. You can have a
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: monkey hand and out a flower. It's they find thirty
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: alphas who never lose, right, they're gorgeous. They come on there,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: they're like, you know, hey, and it's never about like
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: the guy and all of his attributes. It's about this
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: girl is not going to lose to that check, you
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: know what I mean. And every girl that they cast
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: in the show feels that way. You were usually the
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: only one who actually said it.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: It was great.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: I definitely got myself into some hot water with like,
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: you know, being like I kind of forgot the cameras
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: were there too, but you know, say, I interviewed Brad Smith,
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: the first Canadian Bachelor, and he said something very similar
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: to what you just said, and He's like the girls
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: would have come out and if there was a perking
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: cone there, they would have fought over it.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I believe it, and I honestly think
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: it is because like, you know, let's let's think about it, right,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Like you go through the process to get it on
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: the show. Whatever that process is for everyone. Everyone's is different,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: but part of it is always like this psycha exam
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: or whatever. Like I didn't feel I didn't fill out
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: an application, I didn't make a video.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: My scenario is a little bit different. But what I
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: did do was when the guy they melt it in, Yeah, totally.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: I would have had to.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: I would have to like pony express it, but they
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: they had to have me do the the psycho l
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: and that kind of stuff. Still, and all I could
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: think of was, I was like that, that's for a reason.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: And the reason is they're they're finding people who are
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: like refused to lose type people and who have always
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, you had a successful modeling career, You've done
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: so much. It's like you don't get to that point
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: when you aren't, when you don't have some type of
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: you know, motivation in you, that's like burning that you're
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: gonna win. And so now you're looking at these girls
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: and you're like, whatever, here I come.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: You know, I love it. I just love it.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: And they were like all talking about me, like I mean,
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: it was just a very and then he picked me
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: and like, so it's rare that like the villain who
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: I didn't have no clue I was gonna be the villain,
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: Like I knew. I like stood up for myself. I
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: felt like it and said some sassy things. But then
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: you picked me and I was like, oh, now I'm
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: the villain. So it was I think the show Money
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: was the villain. I don't know if she got picked
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: or not, but like it was rarity, like normally they
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: don't end up with the villain of the season.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And isn't it funny like the like I mean,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: I've known Michelle for years, farthest thing from a villain
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: ever in real life.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: She tells it how it is for sure.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, She's just honest, you know, and I want to
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: yeah very much. So I love her so much. But
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: when you came off the show, so like you and
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Ben come off the show, and you know the whole
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, that meme thing or that
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: that auto tune thing is so funny how they keep
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: poking his headed. I need to meet the dude who
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: did that, who did his voice, by the way, But
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: it was like when you came off the show and
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: you're getting all the feedback, you know it was was
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: it a lot of you know, oh my god, you
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: know you chose the villain or was it like I've
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: been rooting for you the whole time, Like what were
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: you hearing?
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: More than anything, it was a mixed bag. I mean,
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: obviously people that knew me wanted to know how it ended,
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: and you know, can't really tell, but has it started airing,
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: like people either loved me or hated me. And also
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: my season got spoiled really early on, and I lived
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: in Santa Monica, so I had paparazzi following me every day.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Oh wow.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And it was just you know, every the girls
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: were talking like so badly about me on the show.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: And then my relationship started like as it started airing,
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: things were going really well between us, and then I
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: think he kind of started being like, how are we
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: gonna this is so crazy, like this is really affecting
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: our relationship. But yeah, yeah, it was a mixed bag
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: for sure. Like I'd be walking down the street and
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: like I remember this, Like I was on Abbot Kenney
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: and this guy looked at me and he's like, you're
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: growing on me, and I'm like okay. Like so I
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: just had to take it all with a grain of
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: salt and like just knew that like it was going
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: to all get washed out to see. Luckily, I wrote
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: my book about it, which really felt nice for me
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: so I could share like, Okay, this is what was
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: really happening, this is what I was feeling, this is
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: what I was going through. But yeah, so it was.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, god, I'm just glad it was a long
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: time ago.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: I know, you and me. Both people are always like
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: to me, they'll go, oh, you know, I haven't watched
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: the season since yours, And I'm like, does that mean
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: I ruined it for you?
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Or I set the bar so low? But you know,
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: you never know, because my.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Fear was when they asked me to be the Bachelor,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: was I was going to take the whole ship down,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: you know, like I'm like, oh, great, yeah it's going
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: to fail after my season. Here it is twenty years
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: later and it's still kicking. So there you go.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: I know, and look at here you are. It's been
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: so fun to be like in the community. And I
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: know you guys still do like a lot of stuff
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: and you're friends with Chris Harrison, and it's I think
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: it's a good thing. You know, it's definitely it changed
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: my life course, and I love it, and I might
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: I still watch the show. Are you watching the show?
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: As your wife a good sport about it?
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: So my wife she doesn't watch the show. And it's
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: funny because she's forty. She doesn't watch the show. She's like,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: I just never got into it. But it's so funny
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: because her mom will be like, oh, we watched every episode.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: I'm like interesting. So someone's not tellingly true, but she is. Actually,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: she actually is a really good sport about it. Like
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: she's the first one to say, you know, oh here,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: I'll take the picture for you guys, or you know
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: whatever in those moments. And and my son, my five
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: year old, actually is kind of taken to recently, Like
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: I will be at like McDonald's playland or something, and
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: he'll come over and some people be talking and he'll
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: walk up. He'll go, do you know him from from
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Bob the Builder? And they'll say, they'll go, Bob the Builder, no,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: and he goes, I'm just kidding. It's from The Bachelor.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: That's what you know him from, isn't it.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: I'm like, how does he even know what that is?
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: That is so cool? And as you get older, it's
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: just gonna be something that you always have. Yeah, my
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: kids don't know yet, but my nephews are older and
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: they they YouTube me. I'm like, oh my gosh, my sister,
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: I like, don't let them watch this stuff.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: That's Do you have anyone from the show that are
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: you still in touch with from you know, from your
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: season or even seasons other seasons that you're still tight with.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I've made a lot of friends through other seasons.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: Especially I've always reached out to villains that have been
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: villain like it's not villainized, but like I've just offered support,
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: like if you need help because you you come off
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: the show and you like don't know how to handle
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: the media. Yeah, and it's just a lot and I've
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: lived through it. So like I'm friends with Olivia Kariti
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: and I love Olivia.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Yes, I've run into her so many times in the
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: adulta Lounge.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's crazy resulta forever, like.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: A two million mile or fly.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I fly so much and I'll see her like, hey,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: and I always really liked her too.
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: Oh, she's so great. And then obviously some of the producers.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: I still keep in touch with the Law and Gale
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: and my my producer, Amy Bean is my best friend.
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: That was the best thing that came from my season.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: I love that.
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: Two really good girlfriends from my season, and we do
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: like an annual girls trip. But yeah, like I've reached
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: out to Maria, like I've reached out to a lot
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: of people, and then ye, just you know, I'm doing
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: the podcast now too, so I've really connected with a
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: lot of people through that.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Oh I'm sure. Yeah, congratulations on that by the way, too.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you. Welcome Lah. So, yeah, I know what
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: about you. I mean, you seem like you're pretty dialed in.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: You know, it's really weird. I kind of.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: No, No, I live in Michigan. I moved to Michigan,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: back home where I grew up. That's where I grew up. Yeah,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: I came home right before COVID. My wife's from LA
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: she doesn't love the weather here at all. But I
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: moved We moved back to Michigan right before COVID, and
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: I'm so glad I did because you know, that COVID
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: lockdown thing happened right and you couldn't really go anywhere
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: and stuff. And then my dad unexpectedly passed away during
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: that time. And I think my wife every day, I'm like,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: I know you don't love Michigan the way I do.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: I'm like, but you made something happen for me where
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: my dad, who was just you know, the love of
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: my life. My dad got to know Mike Boys and
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: so that to me, even though yeah, they're like my
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: oldest still talks about them all the time. But you know,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know how on that will last. But my youngest,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: you know, will never My youngest was a baby and
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: my dad was holding him was a month before he
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: passed away. But it's one of those things that I have,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: those moments, you know what I mean, So like, those
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: are things I wouldn't have had otherwise. But yeah, we
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: moved home to Michigan, and so we go back and
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: forth a lot, like we still her family's still in California,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: So we go back and forth a lot. But I
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: wouldn't say I'm really that dialed in. I would say
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: the podcast, like the iHeart Family has probably gotten me
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: more dialed in than I ever was before. You know,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: we do like they do fun events and they'll invite
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: some people, and I always love being in that mix.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: And I get to know a lot of the younger
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: people that I would never know otherwise.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: And the whipper snappers.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about this when you
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: went on Zach season.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: So we're in Vegas doing something, and this beautiful brunette
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: walks in, sits down right next to me, you know,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: and they're all talking about, you know, well, here's how
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: we got here. We took this you know, this car
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: and it's you know, like a special you know, uh,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: the Hundai, you know, ironic or whatever. I don't know
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: how to say it properly, but it wasn't my job
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: to say it properly, so I didn't have to. And
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: the whole way through, you know, we're talking about it,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: and he goes and then my boy, Bob Guiney, and
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: she goes to the girl next to me. He goes,
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: looks at me.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: She goes, who's Bob Guiney?
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: And I looked at her and I go oh my god,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: hold on, guys, and so we pointed out it was
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Victoria Fuller. Yes, I do too.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: I thought she was so funny in that moment.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: I mean all weekend long, you know, every time I'd
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: see her, I'd be like, oh hi, I'm I'm bob
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Ginning by the way, and you know, it was just
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: so sweet. She was so sweet about it. But it
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: was like she's like, who the hell is and I'm like,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: that's me, the guy that even sitting you're talking to
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: you for twenty minutes. You know.
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: Honestly, when I did that group date with her, I
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: don't even know if she knew who I was, so
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: I think she looked me up. It was so fun.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: It was so fun to be brought back. Bennett's still there.
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: He's like the only producer that was like from my time.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: I'm sure you've met him along the way. Yes, it
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: was so fun to be on the other side, like
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: we had a trailer Victoria Fuller is so fun and
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: then Lotto was like the group date host, which.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: I was like, what, that's a weird thing, Like just.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: Like it was. It was such a blast and for me,
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: you know, I have two kids. I got to go
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: to La for twenty four hours. Yeah, and I was
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: tired though. By the end of the night, I was like,
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: oh my gosh, now they have to go film the
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: night portion, which I think they filmed till like four am.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: I was having cheeseburgers with Jesus had an early flight.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: But I was like, brought me out of retirement. So
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: anytime they want to have me back, I'm always down
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: to do something like that. Absolutely, I'm so far removed.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: And I was just like, I know, I always think
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: because I didn't, you know, I wasn't. I didn't propose
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: at the end of my season. So I'm always like, well,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: that's probably why they never invite me back. And then
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: they do the Golden Wedding and Trista's like, oh, it
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: was great.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: I'm sitting at this table and I'm like, what.
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: The heck, why weren't you there?
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Miami got lost in the mail. I think because I
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: wasn't at that one.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: I would have loved to go to that.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: I would have too.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: They dust me off every now and then, but it's
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: the iHeart family that keeps me in the mix. So
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that more night.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: Oh well, it's a good family to be in. I
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: love Amy.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: She's the bomb and Sugarman is it, it is all,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: She's it.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: I wish I had half of her energy and just
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: she's brilliant.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: You know, a great story about her, and I tell
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: this time. So I hope I don't I hope I
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: don't get her in trouble by telling this story.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: But well you can always delete it. That's the beautiful
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: that's true.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: Yep. So yeah, So when I was on the show,
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: when I came off the show, I had a little
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: bit of legal wrangling to contend with, but in that moment,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: you know, I was I was a musician when I
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: went on The Bachelor, and I wasn't allowed to talk
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: about that while it was like in this whole thing
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: and the only person who brought it up on air
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: was Ryan Seacrest because of Amy Sugarman, And so then
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: I could talk about it, and I'm like, I love
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: Amy Sugarman. But it was awesome. You know, She's always
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: been that kind of person. She looks out for everybody,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: and yeah, I adore her. But well, I love that
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: you got asked back. Maybe they'll ask me back someday.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, they absolutely should what about the Golden Bachelorette,
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: you'd be a shoeing.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: I thought I would be the right guy for it.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: I mean I was probably the same age as Gary.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: Well, you could go in there. No, but you could
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: go on in the Golden Bachelor and you could help
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: the guys, you know.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Oh that's right. The Golden Bachelorette's coming up. I
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: forgot about.
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: Like help her, help the guys. But you're the I'll
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: have you back that the right thing will come along.
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: They'll have like a building day or something where you
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: could come in and you know, just don't put you
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: in like a speedo and do dodgeball.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: I don't think I would do that, even if they asked,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: I'd be like, you, guys, Yeah, there's some other dudes
• 24:15

• 24:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well she's done.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: She's a I always say she's the fairy godmother of
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: the franchise, you know, she's She and Ryan are like
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: just such a great couple, and it's like they you
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: know he I mean, I it's interesting. When we were
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: on Trista's season, Ryan and I were like kind of
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: like bunk mates, and so yeah, throughout the whole season,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: I was always like, God, I love that guy. You know,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: we got honest gott I think we'd do like the
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: best friends outside of the show. You know. We just
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: got along so well, and it was like, you know,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: when they end up together. It was like one of
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: those things where I was like, this makes sense, Like
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: I get it. You know, he's he's awesome. So you know,
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: I've always had that kind of love for them. And
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: then it was kind of funny. We were in Tahoe
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: together not too long ago, and Tristan and I laugh
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: about it. But trist introduced me to her son, Max,
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: who I met when he was a baby, but I
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: haven't you know, seen him in fifteen years whatever. Yeah,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: and she and he's like on his phone or whatever,
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: and she goes Max, this is mommy's ex boyfriend, and
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: he just goes, hey, what's up. It was so funny,
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: like a fifteen year old wood.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah that effect.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I totally didn't care.
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: I think I watched that season. But how far did
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: you make it? Bob? Were you like the final two?
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: So nope, I was.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: I was right before hometown dates, so they they had
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: like I think we were there were eight of us
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: left and it was going down to four and I
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: was essentially number five, right, I was the guy that
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: that was the last one to get sent home on
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: that date.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: So you're the Maria of this season?
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: Is that what I Yeah, I was just saying there
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: like I guess I'm going on like you know, and
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: then uh, and then when I didn't get the ros,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: but you know what, it was one of those things.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: It was like the it was like the perfect scenario
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: because Tristan I have always been really good friends, and
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: it's like even throughout that season we had more of
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: a friend vibe, like we were on the friend zone,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: I guess. And so that was kind of cool in
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: a way too, because you know, then when I go
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: to their wedding and stuff, I'm not feeling creepy and weird.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: It was like I felt kind of good being there.
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: No, that's really cool, that's that's super neat. Well, I've
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: been listening to your podcast and I love what you
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: guys are doing so well.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Thank you very much. I can't I'm gonna start listening
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: to yours too. How do we hear your podcast?
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: You can get it listen to anywhere you get your podcasts.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: I do a Wednesday episode and usually have you know,
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: a guest, and then I've been doing recaps too lately
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: of Bachelor and then as well as like Love is
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: Blind and we just talked about Farmer Wants a Wife.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: You know, I just love I love reality TV.
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: I got to see that one.
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: It's like recapishes. I'm like, if you're listening to my podcast,
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: you probably watch the show, so I don't need to
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: give you like the play by play of the date,
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: but like, let's talk about like the meat and the
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: potatoes of the episode. Sure it's a smart move.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: So when you when you went back during Zach season,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: did you feel like the show has changed a lot
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: when you were when you were there as a guest
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: or were you kind of seeing it going, Oh yeah,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: I remember this exactly, you know, is it the formula
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: is still the same or is it the sauce change
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: at all?
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I definitely felt like it there. I could see
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: some subtle changes for sure. First of all, like I said,
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: Bennett was the only person and Pollie who you see
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: on the show once a while who helps ever get
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: everybody lined up for the rose ceremony. He wears like
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: a page boy for the listeners, so keep an eye
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: out for Polly. He is like the nicest guy in
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: the world. But everybody was new, and they definitely have
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: like what she might call it, uh social media. People
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: now at our time like allowed to do it. They
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: I don't even remember them taking photos. Like I got
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: photos from the producers that took them and then they
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: would send us a couple after. But they were like
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: having the contestants do tiktoks and stuff like at the films.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Which I thought, oh my god, that's crazy.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and like they had me and Victoria doing like
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: kind of some behind the scenes TikTok stuff and I
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: was like, I don't TikTok, I don't you know. But
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: so yeah, definitely some changes like that, and it's but
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: the dates pretty much the same. But yeah, I've been
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: on I went on a lot of group dates, but yeah, you.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: And me both. I was I was the group date
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: king on my season. I kept thinking, like, how am
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: I still around? Like I don't even get it.
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: I actually did it mind group dates. I was like, okay,
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: like we always got to do really fun things and yeah.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: Well and you always got the rose at the end
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: of the group dates, so that's not so bad.
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know. I kind of got to the point
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: where I was like, stop giving me the rose. You're
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: putting a target on my back.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: I remember my most like the quickest force turnaround thing
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: was I had a one on one date where we
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: flew to Vegas and we went from like La to
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Vegas or whatever. And then I got back from that
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: date at like three thirty in the morning. They made
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: me do like an ITM or whatever, and at like
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: five forty five in the morning, they're like, okay, so
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: uh let's bring it in some wardrobe and uh in
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: about an hour, we're gonna pick you up. We're gonna
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: want a hunter and Balloon date. You're gonna grab these
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: three people. I'm like, what, Like, I mean, I thought
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: that would be like later in the day They're like, no,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: let's go. It was like literally that fast, and I
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: was like, oh my god. So whenever I watched the
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: show now, I'm like, I wonder, I wonder, you know
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: how many hours they've been at it today? You know.
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: Oh. I felt for Zach. He's like it was so
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: they had filmed the night one the night before, and
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: then we filmed the first group day the next day.
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: I thought that there was a.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: Down day there was when we did it.
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought so when we did it too, and
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: I'm like, how are you feeling, and He's like, oh
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: my gosh, I'm so tired. I think he probably took
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: like a little disco nap during the day. Sure, but
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: the girls were so tired too. It's not the first
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: night is like the roosters are crying. Oh yeah, you
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: see the girls leaving now, especially like on this latest
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: season and the son's coming up.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they let you see it now, I know.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: But then on my date that I did with Zach,
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: there was a girl who from that was hosting with
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: me that showed up to the after party, and so
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: I got the tea the next day because she was saying,
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: like I like him I think there's something here. I'm
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: going to go to the night portion of the date.
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: She said they filmed like four o'clock in the morning.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I couldn't do a cocktail party. And so she's
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: he didn't keep her spoiler alert cashwan.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go.
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: Oh I couldn't do it when I was twenty eight.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: I remember Ari did the show. When he came back,
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: he kind of told filled me in on a season
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: and he's like, Cordy, you need too much sleep. He's like,
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: there's no way you could do the show. He's like,
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: and I slept on my season a lot. That's what
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: the girls complained about a lot. They're like, Courtney's always napping.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, You're like, hey, man, I gotta be rested.
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: I was like, oh, I can't pour from an empty cup,
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: Like I have to like conserve my energy. You know
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: that's funny, come out firing on all cylinders, like my daughter.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: You had to be ready to go, man, Yeah.
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: I gotta. And also, I didn't really drink a lot
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: back then. Like the girls were day drinking a lot
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: during the day, and I've never been a huge day drinker.
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm gonna be like falling is sweep.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: It happens to so many people, right, I mean that's
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: why they Yeah, so true.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: But I've heard they had the drink minimum now and
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: then I asked somebody recently about it. Apparently it's like
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: two drinks an hour. I thought it was like two
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: drinks like through the whole date night I worked too.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Oh I could handle that.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, somebody was talking about it and they're like, oh,
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: you could just save it and you could do like
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: two drinks right before the hour changes and then you
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: can do.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: That's funny. So really it's it was a rule put
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: into effect to be a rule.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: That's about it.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I loved having you on. Thank you so
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: much for joining us, and thanks for the show. You
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: are an OG and so I'm really glad that you
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: got to be on the almost famous OG's Hour. Real
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: quick before we go, So you have a baby on
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: the way. Have you picked out the name yet and
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: are you willing to share it?
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: Well, I I think we've narrowed it down to two
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: and we know the middle name is probably going to
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: be Richard, which is my dad's name. But I think
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: we've narrowed the first name down and obviously we're gonna
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: wait and just do it when he gets here. Sure,
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: but I had a couple of names I could tell
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: you what we're not gonna do. I really liked Keanu.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: Which, oh yeah, that's a beautiful name.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: Cool breeze. But my son's walking and people call him Keno.
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: So I was like, we can't have a Keno and
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: a Keanu. Just that's too much, too similar, too close.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: I really liked Sonny, I really like. I liked more
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: of the out there names. But my husband's like a professional.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: He's an attorney's like Courtney. I don't want he can't
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: walk into court someday and be like Sonny Presciotto here,
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: you know, yes, your honor. I'm like, okay, although I
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: do like that. Yeah, I like the kind of like
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: things that are out there, but yeah, those were those
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: are scratched off the list. I liked Otis.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Otis is cool too.
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: I thought so too. It's hard to name a baby.
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: I like, you said, you have a Grayson, right, yeah.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: We have Grayson and Blake in my my wife went
• 33:00

  Speaker 1: were going to have a girl. And then we had
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: a boy. I'm like, well, I like, like every guy
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: I know, this name, Blake is super cool, and so
