- 0:50Speaker 1: a choice. There a couple of years now and you
- 0:54Speaker 1: hear a couple of laughs in the background. Please introduce yourselves.
- 0:58Speaker 1: This is Garrett. You're going hello. I am Becka Kouffrin. Yeah,
- 1:04Speaker 1: your last name has never appeared on any Bachelor saying no,
- 1:07Speaker 1: no one knows my last name. Nobody knows how to
- 1:08Speaker 1: say your last name. Coop cooing, Okay, I think they
- 1:11Speaker 1: may have gone over this on our podcast before. Yeah. Well,
- 1:14Speaker 1: the reason I didn't introduce him is because I have
- 1:16Speaker 1: no idea how to seek your last name. Okay, I
- 1:19Speaker 1: know we've got the cookfering thing on on the podcast,
- 1:21Speaker 1: but we've definitely knocked over how to say garrett sname. Garrett,
- 1:24Speaker 1: say your lesson again. You're going, You're going in, You're
- 1:28Speaker 1: going like you're going to the bathroom. Are you going
- 1:31Speaker 1: to take that challenging name, Garrett? Um, Well, we've talked
- 1:37Speaker 1: about hyphenating koufreing. You're going. I don't know how long
- 1:41Speaker 1: that to your kids. That's what I talked to her
- 1:44Speaker 1: mom about it, you know, and she said, well, she said,
- 1:47Speaker 1: if you would like to hyphenate your name, but then
- 1:49Speaker 1: it would be too complicated for the kids. I know,
- 1:51Speaker 1: but I kind of want to keep both of us in.
- 1:53Speaker 1: You know, the kids would have both, they'd have the
- 1:55Speaker 1: hyphen name, I think, and you're going, we go with
- 1:59Speaker 1: your going for the kids. Yeah, I literally cannot think
- 2:01Speaker 1: of a harder last name for any poor child people
- 2:05Speaker 1: on their toes. It'll keep the printing press in business,
- 2:08Speaker 1: especially with the sweatshirts with the last name on the back.
- 2:11Speaker 1: It'll be we'll make it work. Um, that's not a
- 2:16Speaker 1: bad people, that's really good. That was good. Ever. Yeah,
- 2:22Speaker 1: he's gonna be great on this. So we've brought the
- 2:25Speaker 1: two of them out to co host Almost Famous podcast
- 2:27Speaker 1: as we love to during the Bachelor's season. We love
- 2:29Speaker 1: to bring people and especially you know, some of the
- 2:31Speaker 1: fans favorites. We saw a lot of fan favorites to
- 2:34Speaker 1: night before we get into the episode. What did you
- 2:36Speaker 1: all think? Obviously, Ashley, you just got done hosting uh
- 2:39Speaker 1: an event here in Park City that we're all a
- 2:41Speaker 1: part of. Um, what do you think of that? For
- 2:44Speaker 1: the first episode? I think it was a pretty much
- 2:47Speaker 1: a standard first episode. I feel like maybe they try
- 2:50Speaker 1: to jazz it up with you know, the extra parties
- 2:53Speaker 1: and all that, which is was a fantastic idea as
- 2:55Speaker 1: far as I'm concerned. But I do you think it
- 3:00Speaker 1: was like a pretty formulaic premiere episode? Uh? There. I
- 3:05Speaker 1: will say there wasn't that many standout exits, Like there
- 3:08Speaker 1: wasn't like, oh my god, there was that girl who
- 3:09Speaker 1: did that? S done? Or that's done? You know, not
- 3:11Speaker 1: too many stunts this year and actually the only two
- 3:13Speaker 1: stunts that really um jump out at me. Were two
- 3:17Speaker 1: girls that were eliminated, and that was the sloth and
- 3:19Speaker 1: the Cinderella Girl. I was hoping the sloth made it
- 3:23Speaker 1: another round. I'm surprised she did it. You know, slow
- 3:25Speaker 1: and steady wins the rate I'm gonna take out there.
- 3:31Speaker 1: She committed to the sloth harder than Alexis committed to
- 3:33Speaker 1: the Shark. She was. She was very dedicated to that,
- 3:37Speaker 1: like she committed to it. I think she did herself
- 3:40Speaker 1: an injustice by being a slot. What did you all
- 3:43Speaker 1: think about having like the kind of breakouts across the country, having,
- 3:47Speaker 1: you know, some a bachelination favorites hosting those. I think
- 3:50Speaker 1: it was fun. I mean, it's the first one that
- 3:52Speaker 1: we've ever taken part in, and it was fun too
- 3:55Speaker 1: because I've watched the show for a while now. But
- 3:57Speaker 1: to get the full audience reaction, I'm like, come on, people,
- 4:01Speaker 1: we knew this was gonna happen or you could see
- 4:03Speaker 1: that from a mile away, so it's kind of interesting
- 4:05Speaker 1: to hear the gasps and laughs and all that. I
- 4:08Speaker 1: have to say that some of the best moments of
- 4:12Speaker 1: tonight's episode came from the live segments. There were the
- 4:15Speaker 1: two proposals, which were emotion invoking. There was Sammy who
- 4:20Speaker 1: lost her mind over you Ben. That was a fantastic
- 4:23Speaker 1: movement and uh, I don't know, I liked it. It It
- 4:27Speaker 1: was so much fun. The Garrett what do you think?
- 4:30Speaker 1: I mean? You came out here, You're you've been fairly quiet, right,
- 4:34Speaker 1: this isn't the world that you love to run around.
- 4:36Speaker 1: And you don't want to be famous. That's been very clear.
- 4:38Speaker 1: You know you've you've taken advantage with some co opportunities.
- 4:41Speaker 1: You're a great partner of Rebecca, but the chasing after
- 4:45Speaker 1: fame is definitely not what you're about. So you come
- 4:47Speaker 1: out here tonight with I don't know how many three
- 4:49Speaker 1: people in Park City. You stand that people are screaming
- 4:51Speaker 1: and yelling at the both of you. What does that
- 4:52Speaker 1: feel like? It's definitely overwhelming. In the beginning, I wasn't
- 4:56Speaker 1: quite sure what we're gonna be doing tonight. I knew
- 4:59Speaker 1: that would be celebrate in with quite a few people,
- 5:01Speaker 1: and they were all they were really awesome tonight and
- 5:04Speaker 1: everyone was really nice. But it is overwhelming getting consumed
- 5:07Speaker 1: by so many people. Yeah, when you guys walk out,
- 5:09Speaker 1: it's like a boy band. It's actually dreamed of, like everybody.
- 5:14Speaker 1: People are screaming at you. I love people who are
- 5:18Speaker 1: excited in the crowd really does it for me? Yeah,
- 5:21Speaker 1: I brought two buddies. So I'm not here right now
- 5:23Speaker 1: filming a show from BC called First Look, and it's
- 5:26Speaker 1: I was able to bring two buddies with me and
- 5:28Speaker 1: they've never been a part of any of this stuff.
- 5:29Speaker 1: They came out just to kind of experience the whole
- 5:32Speaker 1: First Look show with me tonight, Like we've never been
- 5:35Speaker 1: around super fans. It's a whole new world, right. We
- 5:37Speaker 1: watched the show when I was on it, when everybody
- 5:39Speaker 1: else is on it together in a room. Super fans
- 5:41Speaker 1: freak out there and that's the thing. It's like, I'm
- 5:46Speaker 1: not used to that much abundance of love and support.
- 5:50Speaker 1: So that's been the cool part. But at one point
- 5:52Speaker 1: I think Garret and I walked back from the crowd
- 5:54Speaker 1: and He's like, were you scratching my back the entire time?
- 5:57Speaker 1: And I was like, No, that wasn't me, that was
- 5:59Speaker 1: somebody else. Okay, I felt before we diving episode, I
- 6:09Speaker 1: think we should catch up with Becky Garretty. What's one
- 6:11Speaker 1: on in your life? Um, what are you all up to?
- 6:13Speaker 1: What's what's some big updates just well, Moe Ding moving.
- 6:18Speaker 1: That's the biggest thing so far. We uh figured out
- 6:21Speaker 1: about a month and a half ago where we're going
- 6:22Speaker 1: to live, which is Carl's Bad, California, to get some
- 6:26Speaker 1: sunshine for a while. We've been there. We went there
- 6:29Speaker 1: over the spring for their flower festival. You guys will
- 6:33Speaker 1: experience this in the spring. They have like this big
- 6:35Speaker 1: long table in the middle of the flower field. Oh wow, yeah,
- 6:40Speaker 1: I'm already. I'm already. The number one thing that I'm
- 6:42Speaker 1: planning when we move is planting an orange tree and
- 6:46Speaker 1: an olive tree. I'm not I don't really have a
- 6:48Speaker 1: green film, so I don't know why I'm so all
- 6:50Speaker 1: about that, but I'm excited fresh oranges and olive oil.
- 6:54Speaker 1: This place looks incredible. I'm looking up right now. My
- 6:56Speaker 1: phone festival is nice. Good for you. Yeah. Um. And
- 7:01Speaker 1: Garrett has an exciting new career opportunity coming up with
- 7:05Speaker 1: an outdoor company that he'll be Oh yeah, he'll be hosting.
- 7:09Speaker 1: So if anyone wants to hunt and fish and get
- 7:11Speaker 1: into the outdoors and have some laughs, he's going to
- 7:13Speaker 1: be doing that throughout the year, which is exciting. Yeah,
- 7:18Speaker 1: and just traveling like crazy. Honestly, we're all over the
- 7:20Speaker 1: place living out of a suitcase still, so it'll be
- 7:23Speaker 1: good to get settled. There's one thing that everybody says
- 7:25Speaker 1: to me about Garrett, because we've met briefly in Tahoe
- 7:29Speaker 1: it's American Century Championship and then tonight, is that you know,
- 7:32Speaker 1: because I've been able to be around Denver in Denver
- 7:34Speaker 1: with Blake and Colton and been around Jason, that you're
- 7:37Speaker 1: the funniest guy they know person They really so yeah.
- 7:43Speaker 1: So I'm guessing a trip guided by you would be
- 7:45Speaker 1: an absolute blast. So I hear that over and over again.
- 7:49Speaker 1: I want him to break out some of the dad
- 7:50Speaker 1: jokes right now, but I don't want to put him
- 7:52Speaker 1: on the spot. I don't know how appropriate all past
- 7:57Speaker 1: I had a good Christmas time one, but I don't
- 7:59Speaker 1: know it it's that good. I know, I know when
- 8:01Speaker 1: you're thinking it's not good. You know, to both of you,
- 8:06Speaker 1: Ashley and Becca, you both have made real relationships work
- 8:09Speaker 1: out of this. It's like really cool Jared sitting outside
- 8:12Speaker 1: watching football right now. Um, you know, there's a lot
- 8:15Speaker 1: of love in this room and it's really cool for
- 8:17Speaker 1: me to see because I do believe in the show
- 8:19Speaker 1: I always have and watching you know, Colton tonight as
- 8:21Speaker 1: he starts his bachelor journey, it does bring back memories
- 8:23Speaker 1: for me. For both of you, I know, you know
- 8:27Speaker 1: talking to you, actually, this feels it's real. You're preparing
- 8:30Speaker 1: for a wedding. Um, Becca and Garrett? How did you
- 8:33Speaker 1: make this thing feel real? Like you're this? Is it?
- 8:36Speaker 1: Like you guys are moving in together? I know. I
- 8:38Speaker 1: think just ordering everything, just the realization sinking in that
- 8:42Speaker 1: we're moving in together, and then looking at furniture and
- 8:45Speaker 1: then packing and all that, it's like, damn, we're really
- 8:48Speaker 1: doing this together. Yeah. I think it's just having a plan.
- 8:51Speaker 1: And while you're on the show, and even after the show,
- 8:55Speaker 1: your life is turned upside out and something that you
- 8:57Speaker 1: can never expect or plan for because there's so many
- 8:59Speaker 1: cool things that come from it. But now that we're
- 9:03Speaker 1: finally figuring out where do we want to live, how
- 9:05Speaker 1: do we want to fill our home and combining that
- 9:07Speaker 1: as our own, not just my place or his place,
- 9:10Speaker 1: that's kind of what's pulling it all together where and
- 9:14Speaker 1: I think you've been lately for the longest time, we
- 9:16Speaker 1: weren't having any wedding plans, but now we're kind of talking, Okay, well,
- 9:20Speaker 1: what what month do we want to do it in?
- 9:22Speaker 1: What year? Is it coming up quicker than we originally thought?
- 9:25Speaker 1: So it's it's slowly coming together. Yeah. I like the
- 9:28Speaker 1: number two, And I was just joking today, I was like,
- 9:30Speaker 1: what if we did two to March, no, February? Okay,
- 9:42Speaker 1: that's a good. Well, then you started to start planning
- 9:45Speaker 1: in a month, okay. So I have so many questions
- 9:50Speaker 1: for you now that you said this. Do you have
- 9:52Speaker 1: like a fall, summer, winter idea? Like, what's your season?
- 9:57Speaker 1: She likes the fall, and I think that it's important.
- 10:00Speaker 1: I don't know for the I think she's dreamed ever
- 10:02Speaker 1: since being like a little kid to have like this
- 10:04Speaker 1: wedding and all this, and with the passing of her dad,
- 10:07Speaker 1: it falls also in the fall, and so she's picked
- 10:11Speaker 1: out that date, which would potentially be a good one
- 10:13Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, I just love the fall. I don't know,
- 10:15Speaker 1: And I think we've talked about maybe doing it on
- 10:18Speaker 1: the vineyard, and it's in California, it's beautiful, it's the
- 10:22Speaker 1: perfect weather. So that's what I made in force when
- 10:26Speaker 1: he said February. I was like, especially if it's in Minnesota,
- 10:29Speaker 1: that might be too cool. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, see,
- 10:32Speaker 1: you guys don't even know what state you would do
- 10:33Speaker 1: it and yet Yeah, yeah, Jar and I are going
- 10:36Speaker 1: to have a lot more people over to our place
- 10:38Speaker 1: to entertain you. This week. We may have been involved
- 10:40Speaker 1: with the biggest watch party of all time, but it
- 10:42Speaker 1: doesn't mean they're going to stop after that. Now that
- 10:45Speaker 1: we have a crate and Barrel registry and we've kind
- 10:48Speaker 1: of started to get gifts in already from it, it's
- 10:51Speaker 1: going to be so much easier for us to entertain.
- 10:53Speaker 1: We love these hip large red wine glasses to serve
- 10:58Speaker 1: red wine exclusively with. They are so nice to match
- 11:02Speaker 1: with our silverware in our plate where. Um. We also
- 11:06Speaker 1: got these amazing new Maren dark gray large serving bowls
- 11:11Speaker 1: and the perfect for snacks like popcorn, chips, dip, all
- 11:15Speaker 1: that good stuff. Uh. They're they're beautiful and they're timeless,
- 11:19Speaker 1: their classic. They're gonna go with anything that our home
- 11:22Speaker 1: has decore wise for basically the rest of our life. Also,
- 11:26Speaker 1: Jared and I, as you guys may know, are huge
- 11:29Speaker 1: movie buffs and an award seasons coming, so we will
- 11:33Speaker 1: be having a lot of nights on the couch with
- 11:35Speaker 1: some red wine and some popcorn. So we can't wait
- 11:38Speaker 1: to use our Crate and Barrel stuff for that. You
- 11:41Speaker 1: can start your Crate and Barrel registry if you are
- 11:43Speaker 1: an engaged person out there at Crate and Barrel dot com. Again,
- 11:47Speaker 1: if you are engaged and you're trying to figure out
- 11:50Speaker 1: where to register, I highly suggest Crate and Barrel and
- 11:53Speaker 1: you can register at Crate and Barrel dot com. So
- 11:56Speaker 1: I want to clarify something for people who don't follow
- 11:59Speaker 1: your every single move on Instagram. How has the living
- 12:03Speaker 1: situation been. You both have kept separate apartments, but you've
- 12:06Speaker 1: always been together, so you just kind of bounced back
- 12:08Speaker 1: and forth between the two. Yeah, so I'll give you
- 12:10Speaker 1: the rundown. So when after the show ended, I was
- 12:13Speaker 1: in Reno. She was in Minneapolis. She went to her
- 12:15Speaker 1: sister's bachelotte party. I went to my brother's bachelor party,
- 12:18Speaker 1: and then after that I went to Minneapolis, was there
- 12:20Speaker 1: for a month. Then from there she came to Reno
- 12:23Speaker 1: for a month, and then I went back to Minneapolis,
- 12:25Speaker 1: and then we came back out to the West Coast
- 12:28Speaker 1: and we've just been bouncing back and forth from each
- 12:30Speaker 1: other's places, And I even bought a pop up closet
- 12:33Speaker 1: for her apartment. What's a pop up closet? I got
- 12:36Speaker 1: her on Amazon. It was little Cubbies, so I could
- 12:39Speaker 1: put like my pants, my boxers, my socks, and then
- 12:42Speaker 1: paying my shirts and then a couple of coats and
- 12:44Speaker 1: then put my shoes on the bottom. Because her closet,
- 12:47Speaker 1: She's like, hey, I left you some hangers and there
- 12:49Speaker 1: was three hangers, Like do you have room. I'm like, yeah,
- 12:54Speaker 1: you have room. And he gets here, He's like, this
- 12:56Speaker 1: is two inches. I'm supposed to hang one shirt and
- 12:59Speaker 1: appear underwear over this. From the middle of August through
- 13:02Speaker 1: the end of September, I lived out in my suitcase
- 13:04Speaker 1: the whole time. That's yeah. So when I came back
- 13:07Speaker 1: the second time, I bought a little pop made it work.
- 13:11Speaker 1: It broke I think the last week he was there. Yeah,
- 13:13Speaker 1: I did. It started to tilt because the weight of
- 13:15Speaker 1: the jackets and everything like that, and I pulled one
- 13:17Speaker 1: and that just tumbled up. Yeah. Picture, and we just
- 13:20Speaker 1: pulled a picture of the pop up closet. It's Amazon. Yeah,
- 13:24Speaker 1: you could close it up so it's not just like
- 13:26Speaker 1: close hanging in your living room and if you get
- 13:28Speaker 1: in a fight, it looks like a fine place to
- 13:30Speaker 1: zip up and sleeping at night. Yeah, I know, I
- 13:34Speaker 1: throw my flash head in there. So you guys wasted
- 13:37Speaker 1: no time. I mean this thing. As soon as the
- 13:38Speaker 1: show was done, you're, you know, kind of somewhat living together.
- 13:43Speaker 1: But here's the thing. You've never had a shared post
- 13:46Speaker 1: postal box, right? Oh no, not ever the same. Well,
- 13:49Speaker 1: I'm excited for you because our next sponsor the podcast

- 13:56Speaker 1: things about it. I'm gonna tell you about stamp dot Com. Well,

- 16:37Speaker 1: And I loved the sunshine. I was like, hey, it's warm,
- 16:39Speaker 1: let's go. And then I love the mountains and uh
- 16:43Speaker 1: and fishing and just being outside and active and stuff
- 16:45Speaker 1: like that. And so we went down to my brother's
- 16:48Speaker 1: wedding down in North County, San Diego, and I was like,
- 16:52Speaker 1: I could live down here, and she's like you could.
- 16:54Speaker 1: I was like yeah, She's like, let's do that. That's
- 16:56Speaker 1: crazy because I've always thought of San Diego as like
- 16:58Speaker 1: the most active city in the kind tree I think
- 17:00Speaker 1: of it. I just think of like people working out,
- 17:02Speaker 1: being healthy, going paddle boarding, going running, going and biking.
- 17:07Speaker 1: So yeah, he got there. So it's a little more
- 17:10Speaker 1: chill than l A. His family is close by, and
- 17:13Speaker 1: so I thought it was one one because it was California,
- 17:15Speaker 1: get the sunshine and family. So this is my favorite
- 17:19Speaker 1: question to ask newly moved in couples. What is something
- 17:23Speaker 1: that you've learned about him when you moved in? Just
- 17:24Speaker 1: about his like home habits that drives you nuts, or
- 17:27Speaker 1: you find just unique both of you, both from both
- 17:31Speaker 1: of you. Okay, I would say in the bathroom that
- 17:35Speaker 1: after remind her because I like to stay super clean,
- 17:38Speaker 1: that after reminder to squeegee the door. And then and
- 17:42Speaker 1: then she'll like leave makeup like spilled on the counter
- 17:45Speaker 1: and I'm like light that up and she's like, oh, Gary,
- 17:48Speaker 1: And I'm like, don't call me Gary. First of all,
- 17:52Speaker 1: you cannot get mad at me from my makeup because
- 17:54Speaker 1: he will shave or trim his beard and the hairs. No,
- 17:59Speaker 1: you do not, Mr, he does not. It's all over.
- 18:03Speaker 1: It's I went there and I haven't been home in
- 18:05Speaker 1: a month, and he stills little remnants of his hairs.
- 18:09Speaker 1: That that's a hard thing. I'm on with you, g
- 18:12Speaker 1: that's impossible. Yeah, It's like I get a little bit
- 18:16Speaker 1: each day. I'm like, oh, there's a couple more hairs,
- 18:18Speaker 1: you know, get a little wet tallengesin um. One more thing.
- 18:23Speaker 1: And I've said this since day one, but his family
- 18:27Speaker 1: loves paper towels and leaving paper towels all around. I've
- 18:32Speaker 1: made it a habit now that I'll go, even when
- 18:34Speaker 1: I'm just with him or with his mom or his brother,
- 18:37Speaker 1: then I'll go and super zoom all of the paper
- 18:40Speaker 1: towels and they leave around the house because we go
- 18:42Speaker 1: through so many. I'm like, why do you leave this behind?
- 18:45Speaker 1: Just throw it away or use a normal towel, But
- 18:48Speaker 1: they just I don't know what it is with their
- 18:50Speaker 1: paper products. I like to reuse it, so that's why
- 18:52Speaker 1: I don't like I leave it there because I'm gonna
- 18:54Speaker 1: use it again. And then she tosses and then I
- 18:57Speaker 1: have to get a new one. More waste paper towel
- 19:01Speaker 1: in my pocket. Yeah every day. Yeah, in the morning,
- 19:03Speaker 1: I washed, shower up, I go out and I washed
- 19:06Speaker 1: my hands and brush my teeth, and I clean up
- 19:07Speaker 1: with the paper towel, and then I'll use that same
- 19:08Speaker 1: paper towel in my pocket. Does not pull apart. We
- 19:13Speaker 1: buy high quality paper towel. Why don't I just buy
- 19:16Speaker 1: you guys for Christmas? No, no, well, I use a
- 19:21Speaker 1: paper towel in your mouth instead of a regular towel
- 19:24Speaker 1: because I can use it all day. Paste. It's like,
- 19:28Speaker 1: put it in your pocket like my nose, wipe up
- 19:31Speaker 1: something off the counter, that well blowing nose. I'll be
- 19:35Speaker 1: done with it for the day. But if I have
- 19:37Speaker 1: to wipe something off the counter, then it's still, in
- 19:39Speaker 1: my opinion clean. I'll stick it right back in my pocket.
- 19:41Speaker 1: And you know what's fun about like relationships, You know
- 19:43Speaker 1: in the beginning, when you're afraid to tell couples something. Yeah,
- 19:47Speaker 1: we've gotten to that point now where it's like we
- 19:49Speaker 1: just fired up right away. Actually, her shoes off one
- 19:52Speaker 1: day and I was like, do not sit on my
- 19:54Speaker 1: bed with those feet, Like someone just dump vinegar and
- 19:58Speaker 1: they weren't that bad. I'm I've been the exact same way.
- 20:02Speaker 1: I've always thought I'd be like the girl that was
- 20:03Speaker 1: like kind of on our best behavior, like very ladylike
- 20:06Speaker 1: until marriage. Nope, just all out there, all the grossness living.
- 20:10Speaker 1: When someone changes it, like today, I will say I
- 20:12Speaker 1: learned what e W meant. He's gonna hate me for
- 20:16Speaker 1: saying this, but he's read. There's no going back now.
- 20:21Speaker 1: It stands for endless wipe when you go like one
- 20:25Speaker 1: that you have to like flash the toilet a couple
- 20:27Speaker 1: of times. Wore what is going on? Day? Everyone? Yeah,
- 20:34Speaker 1: there's a fix for that. Actually knows my fix. We've
- 20:36Speaker 1: talked about it often. Actually we've only alluded to it once.
- 20:40Speaker 1: Dast Or a shower, Yeah, I mean, I'm never if
- 20:44Speaker 1: if that happens, like starts to happen for me and
- 20:46Speaker 1: I see it coming there, it's it's just an audible
- 20:49Speaker 1: right away and say it's time to shower. Yeah exactly.
- 20:51Speaker 1: Yeah's apparently what is this like afordable the day that
- 20:54Speaker 1: you can put on? Garret's like, let's get this for
- 20:57Speaker 1: our apartment. I'm like, that's a little extreme. You can
- 21:00Speaker 1: it hides under the lid. It's amazing. Is there anything
- 21:07Speaker 1: before we dive into the first episode of Cold and
- 21:08Speaker 1: Season the Bachelor, is there anything for each one of
- 21:11Speaker 1: you in here that you're still hiding from each other?
- 21:13Speaker 1: And if so, can you break the ice now until
- 21:16Speaker 1: your significant other? That's a fantastic question. Do you have one,
- 21:19Speaker 1: Ashley to start us? Get him warmed up? If I'm Jared,
- 21:24Speaker 1: because as soon as we walk out of this room,
- 21:26Speaker 1: Jared is sitting thirty ft from us, You'll have to
- 21:29Speaker 1: tell him whatever you're about to tell me. Man tough, Yeah,
- 21:34Speaker 1: because I'm I'm too freakishly honest. Like sometimes lately, lately,
- 21:39Speaker 1: like this is this week, he's been really congested, so
- 21:43Speaker 1: he's been eating a lot with his mouth open, and
- 21:45Speaker 1: I'll just stare at him and I'll be like, and
- 21:49Speaker 1: he's like, what, Like, you're chomping. It's disgusting. Sometimes you'll
- 21:53Speaker 1: like see it in his mouth. That's all that's really,
- 21:55Speaker 1: That's it. I know. I wish I could be more entertaining,
- 21:58Speaker 1: but I don't hop on right now. There's a couple
- 21:59Speaker 1: of things I don't I don't do this. I have
- 22:01Speaker 1: so many weird, gross, disgusting habits. I gross myself out often.
- 22:05Speaker 1: There is one that my buddy just told his wife
- 22:08Speaker 1: and he hit it from her for years. He when
- 22:11Speaker 1: he's in a car, he drives a lot for work
- 22:13Speaker 1: or whatever, and if he doesn't have a cleanex he
- 22:16Speaker 1: picks his nose and to get rid of it, he
- 22:18Speaker 1: wipes it underneath the driver's seat, which I don't think
- 22:21Speaker 1: is uncommon because I know other people that do do that.
- 22:25Speaker 1: So that's one of those things I'm kind of thinking about.
- 22:27Speaker 1: It's like that seems to be something that we gross
- 22:29Speaker 1: me out. I just asked, please don't do that. Yeah,
- 22:34Speaker 1: underneath that you kind of like reach under He just
- 22:36Speaker 1: he just told her about the yeah, and then you
- 22:40Speaker 1: can clean it off. I feel like I'm kind of
- 22:44Speaker 1: like you. Actually, we're we're pretty honest just because we're
- 22:47Speaker 1: together twenty four seven that there's really nothing I can
- 22:50Speaker 1: get past this guy. But um sometimes and he actually
- 22:54Speaker 1: did realize this once when we were in Reno because
- 22:56Speaker 1: my allergies were terrible, terrible, my sinuses were so bad
- 23:00Speaker 1: and my nose was just running that I like, I
- 23:02Speaker 1: like to do this on my own two but I'll
- 23:04Speaker 1: stick balls of toilet paper up my I do that
- 23:07Speaker 1: when I'm really you know, yeah, it catches it all.
- 23:10Speaker 1: It's like I don't want to keep like blowing and
- 23:14Speaker 1: rubbing my nose because it hurts. I just stick it
- 23:16Speaker 1: up there. He finally saw it once and that's your
- 23:18Speaker 1: body telling you gotta get rid of it. Yeah, it is, Yeah,
- 23:22Speaker 1: even if it's in your sleeve. Yeah. Yeah, I'll say that.
- 23:25Speaker 1: This month, Jared and I have started saying like I
- 23:29Speaker 1: gotta go poop instead of saying like I gotta go
- 23:32Speaker 1: to the bathroom. It's just like, uh, sorry, don't go
- 23:34Speaker 1: in there. Bombed it. That's like a recent development, you guys,
- 23:38Speaker 1: this is love. Why don't we okay, do you guys
- 23:41Speaker 1: remember on the show they would use code like ten
- 23:43Speaker 1: one to go, number one, ten to to go, And
- 23:47Speaker 1: so I'm like, why don't we just say that instead
- 23:49Speaker 1: of being like, I don't know. We were trying to
- 23:52Speaker 1: be secreted for a while, but we could have just
- 23:54Speaker 1: said that. I just you know, I know that it's
- 23:58Speaker 1: a normal bodily version, and I'm like, okay, I gotta go. Yeah.
- 24:02Speaker 1: In his intro package, he showed the blowout bathroom. That
- 24:06Speaker 1: remember that that was impressed. I do remember that that
- 24:09Speaker 1: stood out to me it's weird so to kind of
- 24:12Speaker 1: transition out to the Bachelor. For all of us that
- 24:15Speaker 1: have been a part of the show, anybody listens, I
- 24:18Speaker 1: bet this episode I'm gonna do it over under. I
- 24:21Speaker 1: about this episode gets five listens. What do you think,
- 24:25Speaker 1: Eastern He's shaking his head. Yeah, no doubt. I'm gonna
- 24:28Speaker 1: say just on that dot and I think so too.
- 24:30Speaker 1: I think as we really close. But for any out
- 24:33Speaker 1: there listening, please right into bed An Ashley, iHeart media
- 24:36Speaker 1: dot com. Uh. Any of your weird habits that you
- 24:38Speaker 1: haven't told your partner you want to tell your partner,
- 24:40Speaker 1: but a little behind the scenes on the Bachelor, as
- 24:42Speaker 1: Becca was alluding to, you obviously have to use the restroom.
- 24:45Speaker 1: There's two hundred people on the crew. When you're the
- 24:47Speaker 1: lead of the Bachelor Bachelorette, you have a whole team
- 24:51Speaker 1: of people around you most of the time. Actually, for me,
- 24:55Speaker 1: they knew that my like weakness was I have to
- 24:57Speaker 1: get along. I don't do well around crowds. Forever. I
- 25:01Speaker 1: can do it for a while, but I so what
- 25:02Speaker 1: do they do? They stuck a person with me at
- 25:04Speaker 1: all times, when I went to the bathroom, when I
- 25:06Speaker 1: slept there, was somebody not with more like farther than
- 25:08Speaker 1: ten yards from me. So that brings up a good point, right,
- 25:11Speaker 1: you have men and women that are become friends and family.
- 25:15Speaker 1: At this point, I would say it's about ten people
- 25:17Speaker 1: around the bachelor. Bachelor at all times you have to
- 25:19Speaker 1: use the restroom, they all are gonna know. And then
- 25:22Speaker 1: they're not just gonna know, No, they're gonna send the
- 25:23Speaker 1: signal out, Hey, Ben's got a ten to for the
- 25:26Speaker 1: next twenty five minutes. Pause everything. So you do, you
- 25:29Speaker 1: go to the bathroom, You walk out to two people
- 25:32Speaker 1: with cameras just going like, how was it? It was good?
- 25:36Speaker 1: But say sometimes when you need that alone time. I
- 25:39Speaker 1: used to say I need a tend to just so
- 25:41Speaker 1: I could go and take a chill there, like my
- 25:45Speaker 1: time minutes. I haven't really just meditated in the bathroom.
- 25:52Speaker 1: When I first met her, she took really long showers.
- 25:55Speaker 1: But then I realized that she was the trick the
- 26:00Speaker 1: at the beginning of a relationship, it's always I'm gonna
- 26:03Speaker 1: hold this in until it's appropriate to take a shower,
- 26:06Speaker 1: or I can't take a shower tice and it you know,
- 26:08Speaker 1: I don't know, it's so awkward. Loves such a weird thing. Yea.
- 26:14Speaker 1: I feel like though you get so used to it,
- 26:16Speaker 1: like you guys get it because you're around people all
- 26:19Speaker 1: the time. Then now it's just like my norm. So
- 26:20Speaker 1: I'll talk about it with my friends. Are Like even today,
- 26:23Speaker 1: in front of all the strangers, I was like, sorry,
- 26:25Speaker 1: I got to go to the bathroom. Everyone's like okay,
- 26:27Speaker 1: and I was like, yea, can you hide me in
- 26:28Speaker 1: the men's bathroom? Sorry. He was my bodyguard outside so
- 26:33Speaker 1: he wouldn't let any voice come in. I would say,
- 26:34Speaker 1: the show got me a lot more comfortable being around
- 26:37Speaker 1: anybody else. Again, if you're listening right now, make sure
- 26:40Speaker 1: your emails with all your weird habits, all your gross

- 28:50Speaker 1: a second, the dog is standing there beside Jared for
- 28:54Speaker 1: like two minutes before you notice Jared is watching TV.
- 28:57Speaker 1: That dog then starts in to look at them. Now
- 28:59Speaker 1: that's a cute of thing. So anyways, if this makes it, um,
- 29:03Speaker 1: Jared is sitting out there, we have a big window
- 29:04Speaker 1: to where he's at. There's this random like kind of
- 29:07Speaker 1: like German shepherd looking dog that was standing right with
- 29:09Speaker 1: sign him and Jared didn't see him. And then the
- 29:11Speaker 1: dog like sniffed Jared's hand and Jared doesn't know we're
- 29:13Speaker 1: watching him, but he's just loving on this dog and
- 29:16Speaker 1: playing with this dog it is and Ashley is like,
- 29:19Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. I feel like it's getting
- 29:22Speaker 1: hot in here because Ashley is heated up with our
- 29:25Speaker 1: new baby dog, Like I look as if he's with
- 29:30Speaker 1: our baby girl. So it was very adorable. I think,
- 29:33Speaker 1: did I tell you this that once we got this
- 29:36Speaker 1: girl dog and he's never had a girl dog before,
- 29:38Speaker 1: he all of a sudden goes, I kind of want
- 29:40Speaker 1: a baby girl now, Like all of a sudden, he
- 29:42Speaker 1: wants to have a girl first. Jared just cut alright, Hey,
- 29:47Speaker 1: we've got to dig in. We've got to get gossipy,
- 29:49Speaker 1: we've got to get juicy. We've got to talk about
- 29:50Speaker 1: the Bachelor. That's why we're here. That's why you're listening.
- 29:53Speaker 1: Becca and Garrett. It's been great to catch up with
- 29:55Speaker 1: both of you. Congratulations on the next steps. You're here
- 29:57Speaker 1: to talk about the Bachelor now though, Okay, um, Colton
- 30:01Speaker 1: season just started. I think actually tell me if I'm wrong,
- 30:04Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you lead this segment because you understand
- 30:07Speaker 1: the Bachelor a lot better than the Bachelor. That is
- 30:10Speaker 1: not true. That's actually good point. Let's start from the beginning. Okay,
- 30:16Speaker 1: I think Colton walking in this storyline has been and
- 30:19Speaker 1: and most of the country is gonna say it tonight
- 30:21Speaker 1: way overplayed the virgin thing. I thought they would pull
- 30:25Speaker 1: back a lot for the episode. I really did. I
- 30:27Speaker 1: thought they would say I thought this show would be like,
- 30:30Speaker 1: we get it, the storylines out there, and they just
- 30:32Speaker 1: pushed it forward. So there's two things I want to
- 30:34Speaker 1: talk about. One, is it too much? Is it intriguing
- 30:37Speaker 1: to you at all? Is it interesting? Second? Is there
- 30:40Speaker 1: a such thing as virgin shaming? So I think let's
- 30:44Speaker 1: start with hasn't been overplayed? Is it appropriate? And is
- 30:47Speaker 1: it intriguing? Okay, well, I guess I'll start. I. I
- 30:56Speaker 1: just think it's so overboard, especially at this point when
- 30:58Speaker 1: we've seen so many on the show. There was a
- 31:01Speaker 1: Sadie Murray who was on our show. There is me
- 31:04Speaker 1: and Becca, there's Kristen, and now there's Colton. And it's like, okay, well,
- 31:09Speaker 1: if you have like five from the past decade, why
- 31:13Speaker 1: is that so fascinating? Why do we have to continue
- 31:15Speaker 1: to harp on It's obviously not that rare of a thing.
- 31:17Speaker 1: And maybe more I want to add, there could be
- 31:19Speaker 1: more virgins who just didn't feel like it was appropriate
- 31:21Speaker 1: to talk about it on national TV. You were comfortable
- 31:24Speaker 1: in it I'm glad you were used to up. We've
- 31:25Speaker 1: had many girls call in and say thank you, Ashley,
- 31:29Speaker 1: but yeah, you can name five. I bet there's more.
- 31:32Speaker 1: I'm sure there is, especially who like left early and
- 31:35Speaker 1: they never really divulged into their personal stuff, I think.
- 31:39Speaker 1: And I told this to Colton when he first told
- 31:42Speaker 1: me that he was a virgin in the Bahamas, and
- 31:44Speaker 1: then even after that we talked at mental all and
- 31:47Speaker 1: we're friends zoned, so we've talked about it. And when
- 31:51Speaker 1: he told me that he felt he was in a
- 31:53Speaker 1: safe place, we were at the point in the relationship
- 31:55Speaker 1: where he wanted me to know, and to me, it
- 31:59Speaker 1: wasn't a big deal. And to me, that's just a
- 32:01Speaker 1: part of who someone is. It's their decision, but it
- 32:03Speaker 1: doesn't make up their entire person. And so it's like, yeah,
- 32:07Speaker 1: of course he divulged that, but there's so much more
- 32:10Speaker 1: to Colton than just being the virgin. And so I
- 32:14Speaker 1: kind of hope and this would be my wish that like,
- 32:17Speaker 1: so for my season they played up. The first night
- 32:20Speaker 1: was of course not only the breakup with Ari, but
- 32:23Speaker 1: the whole let's do the damn thing. Like I had
- 32:25Speaker 1: to say that so many times and I'm like, good, gracious,
- 32:30Speaker 1: I never want to say this again, but for the
- 32:33Speaker 1: show aspect, you kind of have to play it up.
- 32:35Speaker 1: It's like a one and done type thing. And so
- 32:38Speaker 1: maybe fingers crossed, that could be the case for this,
- 32:42Speaker 1: or you know, he can have a conversation with a
- 32:43Speaker 1: girl or two that he gets into stronger relationship with.
- 32:47Speaker 1: But I don't think it needs to be like the
- 32:48Speaker 1: entire storyline. I think, and I've read things like people
- 32:51Speaker 1: think that it's not going to be Colton's journey to
- 32:53Speaker 1: find love. It's going to be Colton's virginity story, and
- 32:56Speaker 1: that's not what it needs to be about. Do you
- 32:59Speaker 1: wish you wouldn't have told you? No, No, I'm glad
- 33:01Speaker 1: that he told me, and and like I said, we've
- 33:04Speaker 1: had conversations since then, and so I just feel humbled
- 33:09Speaker 1: that he felt comfortable to tell me that. And so
- 33:12Speaker 1: if he felt comfortable in not only expressing it to me,
- 33:15Speaker 1: but knowing it was going to be played out on
- 33:17Speaker 1: national television, then that's his prerogative. And um, you know, again,
- 33:22Speaker 1: he knew it was for a TV show, so it
- 33:24Speaker 1: would be played up a bit. But I don't think
- 33:28Speaker 1: it needs to be as extreme as it is, and
- 33:31Speaker 1: there's one thing that's really upsetting me, then I want
- 33:34Speaker 1: to move in the virgin shaming and don't hear from
- 33:35Speaker 1: every ready. I don't like this, and I could be
- 33:37Speaker 1: completely off. I feel things sometimes it doesn't make sense.
- 33:42Speaker 1: I don't love that there's women on the show saying
- 33:45Speaker 1: I'm going to take his virginity, or when I'm gonna
- 33:48Speaker 1: when he loses virginat me, I'm gonna oil him up
- 33:51Speaker 1: to try to get him hot and bothered and all
- 33:52Speaker 1: that stuff. I feel really disgusted by that for some reason.
- 33:57Speaker 1: I feel like that's we're crossing a bou Andre in
- 34:00Speaker 1: a line now where this is something Colton's held on too,
- 34:02Speaker 1: And I think as we get through the season here,
- 34:04Speaker 1: we're gonna learn a lot more of why he's a virgin. Right.
- 34:06Speaker 1: It's not because he can't have sex with a woman.
- 34:08Speaker 1: I'm sure he's had his opportunities, um and I'm sure
- 34:11Speaker 1: he desires it, but it's been a personal choice by him.
- 34:14Speaker 1: I hate that there's verbage and people out there on
- 34:17Speaker 1: the show, and also that they're playing it with the
- 34:19Speaker 1: women going I'm gonna take his virginity. Think about what
- 34:22Speaker 1: you're saying there. What you're saying is absolutely disgusting, um
- 34:27Speaker 1: and not okay with me. And I can't quite put
- 34:29Speaker 1: into words why it's so upsetting, but I know when
- 34:31Speaker 1: I watched the episode to night, there was something about
- 34:34Speaker 1: it that just made me feel dirty. Well, And I
- 34:37Speaker 1: think it's the fact that for people to say that,
- 34:39Speaker 1: it's like, that's very one sided. If if a man
- 34:42Speaker 1: were to say that about a woman, he would be ridiculed.
- 34:45Speaker 1: Oh my god, could you imagine how that would go over?
- 34:47Speaker 1: And so no, he wouldn't live it down. And so
- 34:50Speaker 1: I don't think it's right for just because it's a
- 34:52Speaker 1: girl or a female to say that that it makes
- 34:54Speaker 1: it okay. I think it's like, hey, people, it takes
- 34:56Speaker 1: two to tango. You both have to have a mutual
- 34:59Speaker 1: decision in us and so if Colton chose to do
- 35:03Speaker 1: that with somebody, then hopefully you both have talked about
- 35:05Speaker 1: that and that's for the both of you. But for
- 35:07Speaker 1: somebody to be like I'm gonna take that, or I'm
- 35:08Speaker 1: gonna take this, or I'm gonna steal his virginia, it's
- 35:10Speaker 1: like that's not your place. You just met the guy, Like,
- 35:14Speaker 1: feel it out a little bit. You know that's just
- 35:17Speaker 1: that's there for probably the wrong the wrong thing I
- 35:20Speaker 1: think for him too, And I don't know. Yeah, and
- 35:22Speaker 1: if it is discussing like you were saying that, you
- 35:24Speaker 1: just go on there and then you just throw it
- 35:26Speaker 1: around like I don't know, that's something that he's lived
- 35:28Speaker 1: by for a while. You know, you just go on
- 35:30Speaker 1: there and say, I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna take it.
- 35:32Speaker 1: I'm gonna be the one that does it. I'm gonna
- 35:34Speaker 1: pull him up, I'm gonna get him in there. I
- 35:35Speaker 1: can't wait to get him in the fantasy suits because
- 35:38Speaker 1: that's what I'm gonna do. I don't think that's right.
- 35:40Speaker 1: I will say, like I've made comments in the past
- 35:42Speaker 1: where I've been like, oh, I'd kiss him, or like
- 35:44Speaker 1: I would do this or something. But to say like
- 35:47Speaker 1: I'm gonna take this or like I'm gonna steal that
- 35:50Speaker 1: that's something that's that important to someone, it's has a
- 35:53Speaker 1: different connotation. I think. I think, like you said, the
- 35:58Speaker 1: first episode, the first episode, in my opinion, is absolutely terrible.
- 36:02Speaker 1: Actually knows this. I hate the first episode. I'd prefer
- 36:04Speaker 1: every season of every season, not just this season of
- 36:06Speaker 1: every season. I just think it's weird and awkward, but
- 36:09Speaker 1: I hope that this stops. Like this is just feels dirty.
- 36:13Speaker 1: I'm concerned it's not so I would think, Okay, we've
- 36:16Speaker 1: dealt with it on beck of season. We touched on
- 36:19Speaker 1: it a little bit in Paradise, and now, of course
- 36:21Speaker 1: we're gonna make the first episode about it and then
- 36:23Speaker 1: we should be done with it. But based on the
- 36:25Speaker 1: preview that we saw, I'm scared that it's far from done.
- 36:29Speaker 1: And it's not just going to be a fantasy suite thing.
- 36:31Speaker 1: It's gonna be it's I'm gonna it's gonna carry on
- 36:33Speaker 1: throughout the entire season. I actually I was doing a
- 36:37Speaker 1: press thing and I think this must be out there.
- 36:41Speaker 1: In episode two, they go around the circle and I
- 36:44Speaker 1: don't know it's a circle, but the group date is
- 36:47Speaker 1: girls sharing their first time stories with Megan Malawe like
- 36:53Speaker 1: it's a joke, and it's just like, why do we
- 36:57Speaker 1: keep playing this theme? Here's where it's personal me though.
- 37:01Speaker 1: So I was asked if I was a virgin during
- 37:02Speaker 1: Caitlyn season. Nobody remembers it. I told her lovable in
- 37:05Speaker 1: her response, which there was more wording, but one of
- 37:07Speaker 1: her responses and I know. She didn't love this part
- 37:10Speaker 1: was are you a virgin? I responded in honest way
- 37:13Speaker 1: and said, no, I'm not. I don't know how that
- 37:15Speaker 1: has to do with me. I'm feeling unlovable, but whatever
- 37:17Speaker 1: that works, here's my issue. And this is where the
- 37:20Speaker 1: show gets personal. It shows funny, it's weird, it's awkward.
- 37:22Speaker 1: You guys met, and like, that's awesome for all of
- 37:25Speaker 1: you in this room. There's love that can exist from
- 37:27Speaker 1: the show, and it identifies at the large piece piece
- 37:30Speaker 1: of my life, with or without a relationship. But there
- 37:33Speaker 1: are kids watching. They're teenagers watching this show. The show
- 37:37Speaker 1: knows that, right, ABC knows that, and there's kids out
- 37:40Speaker 1: there watching and seeing that. It's this thing that like
- 37:42Speaker 1: Colton's a little bit kind of being made fun of.
- 37:44Speaker 1: The women are kind of saying, I can't wait to
- 37:45Speaker 1: take his virginity. All the presses about is the a
- 37:48Speaker 1: virgin or not? Where it feels like to me being
- 37:50Speaker 1: a virgin, Yes, it might be maybe not the norm
- 37:55Speaker 1: or the majority, but it feels like something that is
- 37:58Speaker 1: so strange and weird. If I was a virgin, I'd
- 38:00Speaker 1: be questioning myself and and I'm a thirty year old man,
- 38:05Speaker 1: I'd questioned myself, that's where for me, this whole thing
- 38:07Speaker 1: needs to stop, because there's kids, men and women both watching,
- 38:11Speaker 1: going well, he's the bachelor, he's cool, and he's a virgin,
- 38:13Speaker 1: and people making fun of him for it. So I
- 38:15Speaker 1: have so much to say about that because I think
- 38:18Speaker 1: that that's the way the show has portrayed it, being
- 38:20Speaker 1: like this is weird. It's so weird, we're going to
- 38:23Speaker 1: talk about it all the time, and we all I've
- 38:26Speaker 1: been pretty open about I'm not one to usually say
- 38:30Speaker 1: like there's editing involving blah blah blah. But that scene
- 38:33Speaker 1: of yours during last season, I imagine had which time
- 38:38Speaker 1: so it wasn't pure. Can we just say that scene
- 38:40Speaker 1: wasn't pure? And I got so fired up over that
- 38:43Speaker 1: because in that moment, I felt like they were virgin
- 38:47Speaker 1: shaming him. I will say that, even though it's brought
- 38:50Speaker 1: up a zillion billion times, what I do think the
- 38:54Speaker 1: audience takes away from it usually is, oh, Wow, this
- 38:58Speaker 1: person is really attractive and they're really cool, and they're
- 39:01Speaker 1: really open and honest about their virginity, and that makes
- 39:03Speaker 1: me feel okay about it. That's the response that I've
- 39:07Speaker 1: gotten lots of girls and moms coming up to me
- 39:09Speaker 1: and thanking me for being so open about it. But
- 39:12Speaker 1: I do think that the show, for some reason doesn't
- 39:18Speaker 1: want to portray it the way that I'm losing My
- 39:22Speaker 1: train of you know what I mean? Is starting to
- 39:25Speaker 1: feel different. I just feel like every time the show
- 39:28Speaker 1: brings it up, they make it seem like it's a
- 39:30Speaker 1: weird thing. But then I hope that the people are
- 39:33Speaker 1: sitting at home think of it as a good thing
- 39:37Speaker 1: and they look beyond the way. I can't underestimate how
- 39:39Speaker 1: much this show influences people's thoughts. You can't. So that's
- 39:43Speaker 1: where this gets weird for me. There isn't that such
- 39:45Speaker 1: thing as very written shaming. I'm not going to claim
- 39:47Speaker 1: that the show is doing it. I think we're getting close.
- 39:49Speaker 1: But did you want to say anything about that scene?
- 39:52Speaker 1: I will just say I received a ton of backlash
- 39:55Speaker 1: and for how it was aired and throughout every single
- 39:59Speaker 1: day throughout the entire season. There are so many times
- 40:04Speaker 1: where I'll take a break to go to the bathroom,
- 40:06Speaker 1: or the guy that I'm on a date with we'll
- 40:08Speaker 1: go to the bathroom, or we want to eat something,
- 40:10Speaker 1: or you have to break for interviews. So there's a
- 40:12Speaker 1: lot of weaving that happened. So that particular instance I
- 40:15Speaker 1: think came across poorly, which I've said before and again
- 40:21Speaker 1: like at the end of the day, I didn't judge
- 40:23Speaker 1: Colton whatsoever for being a virgin. I respected him, I
- 40:26Speaker 1: think more for telling me that, and we had conversations
- 40:30Speaker 1: off camera more about it where he gave a little
- 40:32Speaker 1: bit more insight. And so at the end of the day, like,
- 40:35Speaker 1: it's our relationship and and no one else. If he
- 40:39Speaker 1: were to be the one at the end of it, it
- 40:40Speaker 1: it would be no one else in that relationship with us.
- 40:42Speaker 1: And so if we're okay moving forward and we both
- 40:44Speaker 1: accept each other for who we are, and then that's
- 40:46Speaker 1: really all that matters. And so um, yeah, the way
- 40:50Speaker 1: it played out, I didn't love um, But Colton I
- 40:53Speaker 1: had many conversations about it, and he's like, look, I
- 40:55Speaker 1: know how it went down. You know how it went down.
- 40:59Speaker 1: I respected your side of how you handle things, and
- 41:02Speaker 1: so that's really all that we can take from that.
- 41:04Speaker 1: I think it's it's no one else in that relationship
- 41:07Speaker 1: at that point, Garrett, How was it standing beside your
- 41:11Speaker 1: woman as this whole Like all this went down kind of.
- 41:14Speaker 1: I mean, she obviously is still a piece of this
- 41:17Speaker 1: season because Colton was on her season the batchlor how
- 41:20Speaker 1: was it stand upsider tonight or just in just in general,
- 41:23Speaker 1: just in general? I mean, seeing like when people lash
- 41:26Speaker 1: out at her and stuff like that was always tough
- 41:28Speaker 1: because there's no way to defend that, I guess or
- 41:31Speaker 1: I don't know how to defend that. So just being
- 41:33Speaker 1: supportive and the same thing with her to me is
- 41:36Speaker 1: just being supportive of one another. But um, yeah, I
- 41:40Speaker 1: mean it was definitely something that I've never experienced before.
- 41:42Speaker 1: And I think that that's something that we have in
- 41:45Speaker 1: common in this room, is that we've gone through relationships
- 41:48Speaker 1: that a lot of people haven't gone through before, where
- 41:50Speaker 1: everything is just looked through through like a magnifying glass,
- 41:53Speaker 1: and everything that you do is just like, I don't know,
- 41:56Speaker 1: people pick it apart. Anything that you do is picked apart.
- 41:59Speaker 1: So oh, that was definitely something new for me to
- 42:03Speaker 1: have to like figure that out and juggle that and
- 42:06Speaker 1: be by her side through everything and just knowing like
- 42:08Speaker 1: whatever she posted was gonna get picked apart, whatever she
- 42:10Speaker 1: wore was gonna get picked apart, what she said, how
- 42:13Speaker 1: she handled herself on the show the dates, how she
- 42:15Speaker 1: like let people go, so something that I had to
- 42:19Speaker 1: like grow in the relationship and do something completely different.
- 42:23Speaker 1: It was really weird for me, to be honest. So
- 42:27Speaker 1: it's had a weird deal for anybody. Actually, I've said it,
- 42:30Speaker 1: you know, as we've done the podcast. I don't know
- 42:32Speaker 1: how many seasons this has been. I mean, this has
- 42:33Speaker 1: been going on since forever, um the Almost Fased podcast.
- 42:37Speaker 1: The true mark of a good lead is not how
- 42:40Speaker 1: charismatic they are likable, they are right, that's that can
- 42:42Speaker 1: all be. That's hard to display sometimes on television. It's
- 42:45Speaker 1: the response to difficult situations. How do they respond when
- 42:48Speaker 1: things get heated, tough, confusing when you know you're in
- 42:52Speaker 1: love with a bunch of people, you're trying figure out
- 42:53Speaker 1: who's right one at the end, and I thought, Becca,
- 42:55Speaker 1: you did really well with this One's particularly because this
- 42:58Speaker 1: is still a storyline, it exists today, and you handled
- 43:01Speaker 1: it really well. Yeah, that scene is different and you
- 43:03Speaker 1: know obviously didn't play out like it really was in
- 43:07Speaker 1: real life. But with all to say, that's not the
- 43:10Speaker 1: defining moment for your season, right, you end up with
- 43:12Speaker 1: this good looking guy over here and you guys. Um
- 43:16Speaker 1: to move on a little bit. I want to use
- 43:20Speaker 1: this segment to be critical of Colton. We were all
- 43:23Speaker 1: big fans of Colton. We think he did a great
- 43:24Speaker 1: job to night, but we have to be a little critical.
- 43:27Speaker 1: So find something I'm gonna start. I think I think
- 43:30Speaker 1: Colton handled himself really well. I think Colton is going
- 43:33Speaker 1: to struggle through the season with what we're talking about
- 43:36Speaker 1: and how he responds to difficult situations. That's gonna be
- 43:38Speaker 1: really intriguing to me because it's it's he hasn't done
- 43:41Speaker 1: it great in the past. But I like Colton. He
- 43:43Speaker 1: uses the word awesome too much. To night. Every single
- 43:46Speaker 1: girl that walked by that was awesome. That dress is awesome.
- 43:49Speaker 1: She was awesome, super awesome. So many awesome mine. So
- 43:55Speaker 1: we all have it right, You see that when you
- 43:56Speaker 1: when you do is I licked my lips all the
- 43:59Speaker 1: time when I would get nervous, and so you'd like,
- 44:01Speaker 1: do this upload my face. I'm just like, I'm looking
- 44:05Speaker 1: my lips. I think I thought it was sexy. It
- 44:08Speaker 1: was just super awkward. Um, so we all have those
- 44:11Speaker 1: little things. That's my thing for Colton. He needs to
- 44:12Speaker 1: stop saying awesome. He said, awesome all the time. Actually, Okay, well, um,
- 44:16Speaker 1: I think we've seen it with Bachelor's in the past.
- 44:18Speaker 1: They usually say you've interrupted enough, let this girl have
- 44:22Speaker 1: her time. He allowed that girl to interrupt four times,
- 44:27Speaker 1: which I think, you know, I mean, we all know
- 44:29Speaker 1: there will be the interrupter on night one, but he
- 44:32Speaker 1: never said it's enough down, just let it happen. I
- 44:38Speaker 1: think that's a good question. Okay, I'm not gonna lie.
- 44:43Speaker 1: I didn't. That's actually the thing I said way too
- 44:45Speaker 1: much my season. I'm not gonna lie. But I didn't
- 44:48Speaker 1: see all that much of the episode ten because we
- 44:51Speaker 1: were with you guys at the party and there's a
- 44:54Speaker 1: lot going on with all of the fans. Um, so
- 44:57Speaker 1: the parts that I did catch, I couldn't really also
- 45:00Speaker 1: here because I'm kind of definite. Okay, what do you
- 45:02Speaker 1: think he will struggle out? I think the thing that
- 45:05Speaker 1: and I've talked to him about this before, is, I mean,
- 45:07Speaker 1: everyone loves social media. It's very prevalent, and it's easy
- 45:10Speaker 1: to get wrapped up in the comments and what people
- 45:13Speaker 1: say and how they react to certain things. And I think,
- 45:16Speaker 1: and this is what I learned too, is sometimes it's
- 45:18Speaker 1: okay to stay silent and to not respond and to
- 45:22Speaker 1: not get so invested and respond to everything that you want.
- 45:27Speaker 1: And so I think it'll be a learning and experience
- 45:29Speaker 1: for him. And I think he has done a better
- 45:31Speaker 1: job too, and he's expressed that to me before. But
- 45:34Speaker 1: just taking a step back sometimes and realizing that the
- 45:37Speaker 1: majority of people hope, hopefully, hope for his happiness, want
- 45:40Speaker 1: the best friend, want him to find love and really
- 45:42Speaker 1: find a person that he's compatible with. UM. But there's
- 45:46Speaker 1: gonna be the haters, and there's gonna be the negative negativity, UM.
- 45:50Speaker 1: And so just step away from that and not worry
- 45:53Speaker 1: and fix it on that as much. It's a good
- 45:55Speaker 1: lesson for anybody in this. You know, it's funny you
- 45:58Speaker 1: get likes and ten negative comments and you're sponding negative comments.
- 46:02Speaker 1: I do see that. What's it's a little side thing.
- 46:05Speaker 1: You guys are all more up to this, and I don't.
- 46:08Speaker 1: This is what I thought about today, and we'll jump
- 46:10Speaker 1: back into the back room. What's up with all these
- 46:12Speaker 1: people now responding on all the questions on Instagram? That
- 46:15Speaker 1: seems exhausting to me. I see, like Nick does it?
- 46:18Speaker 1: You know really well? I read his stuff because he's
- 46:20Speaker 1: wise and he's good and he responds great, but it
- 46:22Speaker 1: looks exhausting. You have like thirty questions that you're answering
- 46:26Speaker 1: all the day, like what well, my well, my favorite
- 46:29Speaker 1: podcasts and comedians. Chrystalia goes, you must be really obsessed
- 46:33Speaker 1: with yourself. You must have the biggest ego in the world.
- 46:36Speaker 1: If you're like, ask me questions about myself, it's a thing.
- 46:40Speaker 1: Now say like, I'll do it. I try to make
- 46:43Speaker 1: it more like about beauty stuff or like wedding stuff,
- 46:46Speaker 1: so it's not like ask me about me, but it
- 46:49Speaker 1: is kind of fun. It's fun, it is. Garrett and
- 46:52Speaker 1: I did our first one. We had a we were
- 46:55Speaker 1: driving from northern California down to I think a layer
- 46:59Speaker 1: ocean side and it's a long drive and we were bored.
- 47:03Speaker 1: Garrett had been driving for hours, and I was like, hey, guys,
- 47:07Speaker 1: let us know what karaoke song you want us to sing?
- 47:10Speaker 1: And so we got a lot of responses with that,
- 47:12Speaker 1: so we kind of made it fun Terry's singing involved.
- 47:15Speaker 1: So that's the first time. I didn't even know how
- 47:17Speaker 1: to find the responses. At first, It's like, how the
- 47:18Speaker 1: hell do I do this? But I couldn't figure that out. Yeah,
- 47:22Speaker 1: that's weird. Is I think that people are clever in
- 47:25Speaker 1: a sense that what you just said, You're like, why
- 47:28Speaker 1: do people get ten negative comments and they take their
- 47:31Speaker 1: time to respond to those? People are clever. I think
- 47:33Speaker 1: that sometimes they'll write something so negative to to get
- 47:36Speaker 1: a response and be like, oh my god, then just
- 47:39Speaker 1: wrote me back, when really they don't even have that
- 47:42Speaker 1: much hates for you, but they just write something to
- 47:44Speaker 1: get a response because that's what they see. That's what
- 47:46Speaker 1: arouses your interests. This whole social media think exhaust me
- 47:50Speaker 1: now because I don't think it's cool. I wish I
- 47:52Speaker 1: was better. But as you're talking here, you you all
- 47:55Speaker 1: have fun with it. I read next every time because
- 47:57Speaker 1: he's wise and he's smart and he's witty, and all
- 47:59Speaker 1: these people are doing it. I'm not saying it's a
- 48:00Speaker 1: bad thing. I think if this is the new expectation
- 48:03Speaker 1: for people coming off the show, like if Colton is
- 48:05Speaker 1: now expected to respond to a thousand questions a day
- 48:08Speaker 1: on his Instagram, that's where I check out saying that's
- 48:11Speaker 1: definitely one of those things you do when you're born.
- 48:13Speaker 1: You want to have, like play a game. I think
- 48:15Speaker 1: if it more as like a game, because you know that.
- 48:17Speaker 1: I love the question game. Here, I'll ask random questions.
- 48:20Speaker 1: I could go up to somebody on the street and
- 48:22Speaker 1: truly be interested in what their favorite movie is or
- 48:24Speaker 1: what their favorite food is. I don't know, it just
- 48:26Speaker 1: like a human curiosity. I love just questions and this
- 48:29Speaker 1: random nance game. My gosh, you and my mom would
- 48:31Speaker 1: get along. She is the question queen. I could just
- 48:34Speaker 1: go up to someone like, do you like talk about
- 48:36Speaker 1: or del taco? Do you like what McDonald's like? I
- 48:38Speaker 1: don't know. It's truly fascinates me. That's why actually is
- 48:41Speaker 1: the best co host. Why don't you guys play? Would
- 48:43Speaker 1: you rather we do? Right now? There's just so much

- 52:15Speaker 1: She says, I don't have the hair though you got
- 52:18Speaker 1: green hair, but he'll bring the comedic relief. She's like,
- 52:21Speaker 1: your hair is super puffy, and I was like, there's
- 52:23Speaker 1: nothing I can do. Butter it was like very high
- 52:25Speaker 1: tonight before he left, questioned, do you get offended if
- 52:28Speaker 1: she tries to fix your hair? Oh, Jared can't stand it. No,
- 52:32Speaker 1: I just this is the only thing that gets me though,
- 52:34Speaker 1: is if she gets her fingers in there, and then
- 52:37Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know what it looks. Just as
- 52:39Speaker 1: long as I know what it looks like, I don't mind.
- 52:41Speaker 1: Yeah it looks good man, you have I like that.
- 52:45Speaker 1: I like Ben's hair long. Yeah. I lost a lot
- 52:48Speaker 1: of hair after the show. I grew back. Did you
- 52:51Speaker 1: get any grays in there? Oh? I'm not kidding. I
- 52:54Speaker 1: literally I was looking at a picture actually this is
- 52:56Speaker 1: wild from like one of our first photo shootings, and
- 53:00Speaker 1: I looked, I've lost my hair and it grew back
- 53:02Speaker 1: because of the stress I was losing hair fat. You
- 53:05Speaker 1: really think you grew it all back or most of
- 53:07Speaker 1: the most of it back? Oh, definitely if you look
- 53:08Speaker 1: at compared like side by side pictures. I remember this
- 53:10Speaker 1: with Caitlin during her season The Bachelor. She got off
- 53:13Speaker 1: and I saw her and and she had like literally
- 53:15Speaker 1: would like her hair was so thin because of stress.
- 53:18Speaker 1: Did you lose club hair now? I didn't lose hair.
- 53:20Speaker 1: Do you lose weight gain weight? Well, I gained weight too,
- 53:26Speaker 1: I think right like those last couple of weeks, I
- 53:28Speaker 1: was okay. We were entiling in the Maldives, so I
- 53:31Speaker 1: was eating peter bread and rice and noodles NonStop. But
- 53:35Speaker 1: I think because of the stressful the last couple of weeks,
- 53:37Speaker 1: I lost weight. But then I came back to the
- 53:39Speaker 1: States and gained it back right away, plump, because then
- 53:42Speaker 1: I was happy and in love. Yeah, yeah, and love.
- 53:48Speaker 1: It is stressful. It's a stressful experience. These women that
- 53:52Speaker 1: got a woman and I are about to enter into
- 53:53Speaker 1: this whole beast of a world. We have women whose
- 53:57Speaker 1: moms are in federal prison. Is that Weir was a
- 54:00Speaker 1: walking phone calling her? Yeah? I agree, I saw that one.
- 54:05Speaker 1: It's just a weird it's a weird, shocking. Next time
- 54:09Speaker 1: that I might get to see my mom might be
- 54:10Speaker 1: with Colton when she gets out of prison. Yeah, that's tough.
- 54:13Speaker 1: I wonder how long she's been in jail? Did we do?
- 54:15Speaker 1: We know that. I don't think it was from bezzlement,
- 54:19Speaker 1: tax fraud or something. You know, you never know with
- 54:21Speaker 1: how long does last. But it is crazy to think
- 54:24Speaker 1: of how that storyline now gets brought into a nine
- 54:28Speaker 1: million people's television. I'm gonna say, what do you guys
- 54:31Speaker 1: think like going out in the beginning and getting it
- 54:33Speaker 1: out there and the letting people know, or is that
- 54:35Speaker 1: something that once it gets there, then you let people know.
- 54:38Speaker 1: I have this weird not weird. I have this theory
- 54:42Speaker 1: that you try to protect the people that didn't sign
- 54:44Speaker 1: up for the show. Yeah, as best you can. You're
- 54:46Speaker 1: obviously not gonna be do perfect. And I called out
- 54:49Speaker 1: my college girlfriend that I would love and it destroyed
- 54:52Speaker 1: her for a little. She's good with it now, we're
- 54:54Speaker 1: good friends. But at the time she's like, what the
- 54:56Speaker 1: hell are you doing? You called me a monster on
- 54:58Speaker 1: the Bachelor, Like, oh my god, you did I did
- 55:01Speaker 1: no monster, I broke my heart. Don't do that. Okay, okay,
- 55:05Speaker 1: but this girl obviously got permission from her mom, and
- 55:07Speaker 1: her mom was probably like, yeah, you use me. It
- 55:10Speaker 1: will help you get on the show. Hopefully, Yeah, hopefully
- 55:15Speaker 1: she's gonna get a prison with a couple of things. Okay,
- 55:19Speaker 1: So with the we have a couple of misses on
- 55:22Speaker 1: this season. We have missed Carolina and then another one
- 55:25Speaker 1: was Miss Obama Alabama or something like that. Yeah, some
- 55:28Speaker 1: southern state. So there's there's obviously they hinted it at
- 55:32Speaker 1: like some drama between them. Well, I would say it's
- 55:35Speaker 1: light drama because Kaylin was the runner up, so obviously
- 55:38Speaker 1: in some form of life, she's already beat Hannah at something.
- 55:42Speaker 1: And I think this is just a theory of mine
- 55:44Speaker 1: that this insecurity is going to follow Hannah throughout this experience,
- 55:48Speaker 1: especially after she sees that Kaylin got a kiss on
- 55:51Speaker 1: night one. It's gonna it's gonna rise up. I have theory.
- 55:55Speaker 1: I'm making them up. I'm really making up for the
- 55:56Speaker 1: sake of drama. This is my theory. I actually it's
- 56:00Speaker 1: wild how many times you're right. You're pretty good at
- 56:03Speaker 1: this um. But there's a lot of mrs Miss Caroline
- 56:05Speaker 1: and Miss Alabama. They're they're they're in competition with each other.
- 56:08Speaker 1: There was that glare a night when you saw it.
- 56:12Speaker 1: Why were your sash? Why aspect of that? Why? How
- 56:17Speaker 1: would I did say that? I think Miss Colton Underwood
- 56:25Speaker 1: and it went from Miss um Miss South Miss Alabama
- 56:30Speaker 1: to Miss cold Underwood. I was like, excuse me, that
- 56:33Speaker 1: would be Mrs I didn't know that. Damn. Yeah, that's aggressive.
- 56:40Speaker 1: That makes me turn around. There's a couple of sashes
- 56:43Speaker 1: night or did it turn around? It turned around? It
- 56:45Speaker 1: turned around? Little flip switch and pull it clever though,
- 56:50Speaker 1: that little thing the sash um. Maybe the most intriguing
- 56:54Speaker 1: of the night is a sloth. She got sent home, obviously,
- 56:58Speaker 1: but we talked about her. She bought it. I will share.
- 57:01Speaker 1: I am a sucker for a costume. I think every season,
- 57:05Speaker 1: and people might hate me for saying this, every season
- 57:08Speaker 1: needs a costume. Well apparently so and um. When I
- 57:13Speaker 1: was on ri a season, I don't think any of
- 57:15Speaker 1: the girls were a costume. I mean, Amily's anilies came
- 57:18Speaker 1: in with the bandit mask, but that was you know,
- 57:20Speaker 1: it wasn't a full costume. I was hoping for the
- 57:22Speaker 1: Alexis shark slash dolphin costume. We didn't get that. But
- 57:27Speaker 1: then I had David in the Chicken, which I just
- 57:29Speaker 1: appreciate it. And it keeps you warm because at night
- 57:33Speaker 1: it usually gets cold. They're so cold. Can we bring
- 57:35Speaker 1: up something that is so often forgotten? Jojo showed up
- 57:40Speaker 1: on your season wearing a unicorn masks us Jojo. She
- 57:47Speaker 1: covered her beautiful her face, but she'll be word out
- 57:52Speaker 1: of the limo, right, not something like a plastic thing.
- 57:55Speaker 1: Didn't usually make you wear it all night. I think
- 57:58Speaker 1: it's I mean, I think it's up to you. The
- 58:00Speaker 1: slot just felt like she just bought in, which is
- 58:03Speaker 1: if you mean, for so many reasons, that's weird. It's
- 58:05Speaker 1: your first date. I will say. Here's the thing though,
- 58:09Speaker 1: on my first one on one date with Colton, when
- 58:12Speaker 1: we were in where were we, oh Las Vegas, We're
- 58:15Speaker 1: writing camels, there was a sloth on the premise and
- 58:20Speaker 1: uh he Colton held the sloth and played with the
- 58:22Speaker 1: sloth and loved the sloth, and so he talked about that.
- 58:26Speaker 1: So maybe the producers had some insight to help out
- 58:29Speaker 1: a little bit. I think because he mentioned, he goes
- 58:31Speaker 1: it's my second favorite animal behind dogs. Yeah, maybe the
- 58:34Speaker 1: next Bachelor of Bachelorette. Nobody should know and it should
- 58:36Speaker 1: be a costume. So when you get out of the
- 58:38Speaker 1: fantastic is it you can't see it all night? Sudden carrots?
- 58:42Speaker 1: We three slot twists. It is this is one of
- 58:50Speaker 1: the guys from the previous season. We're gonna mask him
- 58:53Speaker 1: and then um mask his voice. It's like, what's the
- 58:55Speaker 1: TV show? The proposal mixed with The Bachelor's weird because
- 59:00Speaker 1: the proposal was made by the same people that make
- 59:02Speaker 1: The Bachelor. So we are onto something. We are gonna
- 59:05Speaker 1: stop talking about this almost. Yeah, we're walking. This is
- 59:10Speaker 1: gonna be a late night for us. We're creating a
- 59:12Speaker 1: television show. We can pick up the costumes for everyone.
- 59:14Speaker 1: We're not gonna need a wake up call. You're just
- 59:15Speaker 1: gonna go right. I'm gonna go right towards tomorrow. It's
- 59:17Speaker 1: going to the slot costumes and leaf um let's. Uh. So,
- 59:22Speaker 1: we talked about the talk about the mrs. We talked
- 59:25Speaker 1: about federal prison, we talked about the virgin talk. Is
- 59:27Speaker 1: there anything else from night one that really stood out
- 59:30Speaker 1: to you? I'm gonna start guess who my favorite was. Oh, actually,
- 59:36Speaker 1: this is gonna be so easy for you, Brie. I'm
- 59:41Speaker 1: a brief fan. That's his look. That's really that's I'm
- 59:45Speaker 1: a brief fan. Yeah. She had an Australian accent tonight. Yeah.
- 59:50Speaker 1: I don't know how far she'll go. I'm always wrong
- 59:52Speaker 1: on this stuff. I remember last I think it was
- 59:55Speaker 1: I think it was last year. Your favorite you would
- 59:58Speaker 1: choose already? Season my four top my top four on
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: this podcast all got eliminated Night one. So it's like
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: an accent like Breeze that you would make or keep
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: talking in that act. She should have stayed with that
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: for three or four weeks and then just dropped it
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: to see, yeah, and then see if they really liked
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: each other. Uh okay, So I was a fan of
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: bree Hannah was great. Who else stood out to you all?
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: I liked Calin. I think she's stunning, and I felt
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: like their connection was the most warm um natural. And
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: then that that kiss, to me felt more like it
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: was a kiss that was supposed to happen to Night one.
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: The other two felt a little bit more forced. Me
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: mm hmmm. I didn't see that much. I saw the
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: Cinderella entrance, which I'm surprised that that hasn't happened earlier
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: in any of the seasons. I bet you could find
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: something like it. I know who you all like. I
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: was astonished how that hadn't happened. Yeah, you don't think
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: it's ever happened before, maybe like before we ever watched. Really,
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: I'm surprised. And she left the shoe behind I thought,
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: I mean, I thought that was good and clever, but simple.
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: I mean, maybe gets kicked out. She's gone where he
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: opened the box and he's like, what's in here? No,
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: the butterflies one was good. But the other one where
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: she's like, I got you, oh, your favorite underwear. That's
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: your favorite underwear and there's nothing in the box. That's good?
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: That was that. I like that one. It wasn't too
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: dirty and it was it was. It was good. I
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: also feel like he was more of himself. You kind
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: of saw this he I thought he did a good
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: job at night one of not being like too uptight.
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: He kind of relaxed. But you really saw him relax
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: with the blonde when he started like touching his face. Cassie,
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: Cassie Rudolph, I think here's her name. I really thought
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: that moment made me like her a lot because I
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: can see something there. It was really cute. You definitely
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: felt the chemistry in that moment. What I thought was
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: really distasteful was that girl who brought the balloon and
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: as a cherry and that I popped your cherry and
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: then he goes, I think that was an apple, which
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: I've obsessed with the fact that they said that. I
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: think he did because we talked to him a couple
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: of weeks ago, and he was telling us about some
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: of the entrances and he's like, dude, that one completely
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: went over my head. I did not get it that
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: first until she's like, oh, popped. It happens. There's so
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: much happening. There's so much going on and that, and
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: you want to be present, but you're super nervous. It's
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: just like you have to and and keep in mind,
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: four other people are watching you in the limo as
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: you're interacting with these people. So there's just a lot happening.
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: So like if I was in Golden's place, that would
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: have gone over my head too. There's a lot that
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: I missed night one. Trust me, I faked until I
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: made it. Um, we don't know we know who Colton
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: has slept with. We don't know where he sleeps. Wait,
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: why we know that who he slept with? Nobody? Okay,
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: speaking of going over your head, we don't know where
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: he sleeps. But if we had a choice or the
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: ability to recommend something to him, I would tell Colton
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: to sleep on What asked was about to tell you, Yeah,
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: sleep number, your favorite bed my favorite bedber number? Do

- 1:04:53Speaker 1: with one? Ear two? It's one? All right, everybody, we
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: gotta get Garrett and Becca to bed. I know Ashley's
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: man is sitting outside the room petting a dog, waiting
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: for her to get done. To finish up Pulton's night one.
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: We would be missed to not talk about the preview
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: for the season. I think that's how we should call
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: us out. You know, there's a couple of things that
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: sit out to us, Ashley and I. As we watched
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: first episode, all the girls were in sequence right now,
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: it must be a thing? Yes or no? Ashley? Is
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: it a thing? Sequence are great for standing out, like
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: Taylor Swift always wears them on stage. Just Taylor Swift
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: might be doing something. You were a sequence. I apparently
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: wore way too many sequence my season. Um. I love glitter.
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: My dad used to hate me for it when I
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: was a little, but I love it so but again, yeah,
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: it's in in the right settings, which I don't think
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: I always did know the Bachelorette is always the right
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: setting first. So for those two months it was great.
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: I haven't were in a sense, but the show I
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: didn't know, we didn't know what sequence were, we're not
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: going to get along really told me what it was
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: actually all right, So the preview for the season, what
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: do you all think this is? I mean, we saw
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: some man tears. I mean those tears that we saw
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: tonight are not They're not tears of a boy, their
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: tears of a man. Are you all excited about what's
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: to come? Yeah? I am. I want to know why
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: he jumped over that fence. That's what I'm dying to know.
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: And I hope it's over something good because if it's
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: like over something live, I'm like, come on, you built
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: that up. He ran down the driveway for like a
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: mile and then over the thing. But it's like, that's
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: the best pull up I've ever seen. I can't even
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: do that. Like props from show has always been good
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: at teasing us, like pumping up something and not. I
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: have a feeling that what we saw when he jumped
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: over the fence and Chris Harrison freaking out and Colden
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: running down the road. Is going to live up to
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: everything that we hope it does. I don't think it's
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: just like something that happened. I think it's a big
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: deal hopefully, because I mean, I will sound myself. Then
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: they built up the whole ambulance scene and and and
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: I don't want to make light of the situation, but
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: it was a fallout of a bed more. It was
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: like when you open the freezer and your chicken falls out.
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: On Instagram. David he comes on the podcast all the
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: time for comic relief. We just love that guy. But yeah,
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: I just I want to know what that's all about. Yeah,
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a good season. Actually, do you?
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: I do, I really do. I'm excited because you know,
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: they keep telling us the most this one they really
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: mean is the most dramatic. Yeah, I'm excited for what
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: do we actually think the most dramatic season has been
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: so far? Jason has to be he did a switch
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: and I didn't watch that season. That's the first one
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: I've ever watched. It's so much it's your sort is
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: like I was sit down and do it all is
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: just brutal, Like what a just savage move on his part.
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: It's like I'm gonna wait and do this on live TV.
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: Wild Dun Dun, dune brutal um. So we think it's
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: many a great season. Yeah, I can't elaborate anymore. All
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: we saw was a lot of like tanning oil in
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: picking up women and showers and crying and fences. So
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: we don't really have much to gather from that. And
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: again Night one is our least favorite. But we started
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: and this is where the almost famous podcast shines is now.
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: From here on out, Night One's just weird. It's the same.
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: We got to meet the characters. We have to meet
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: the people pursuing Coulton's heart. We've got to see how
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: Colton responds. He's going to get better. They're gonna get
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: more intriguing. The stories are gonna start taking place, Kisses
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: are gonna start happening. It gets better from here on out.
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: Night one's not the best. Becca and Garrett, thank you
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: so much for coming on. But before you go, we
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: have an email from one of our listeners that I've
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: got to ask you all for some advice on um
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: make sure you listen next week to Almost Famous podcast
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: as we dive in once again the Colton season. But
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: like we love to do, we love to read stuff
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: from you. My boyfriend this says of six months and
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: I are very happy, and I've been on cloud nine.
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: I found something on his phone that worried me. We
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: used his phone to take pictures on New Year's Eve.
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: The next day, I grabbed his phone and told him
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: I was going to send myself the pictures, while doing
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: so with his full knowledge, I might add, not snooping.
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: I saw a naked picture he had taken in the
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: mirror that morning. Immediately taken back. I kind of kept
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: it to myself, not wanting to embarrass him, but my
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: mind kept racing why did he take that? Did he
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: send it to someone? So eventually I just asked in
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: His response was that basically he was trying to get
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: back his self confidence after a holiday season of eating
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: and drinking like crap. He's also a personal trainer and
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: said he's been considering training for physique competitions this new year,
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: so he wanted a picture as a starting point. I
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: don't know why below the waist would have been included
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: in this, but whatever, She says, I don't have any
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: reason not to believe him, but I don't want to
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: be naive. He said to great boyfriend, and I have
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: completely trusted him up until now. Am I just being paranoid?
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: Or would you be worried to help? She says, I,
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw this to you all. If it was
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: obviously the below the belt is the alarming part. He
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: saves himself a little bit by being a trainer, but
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: I still don't know why he has to have his
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: ding dong in there. Coming from somebody who has turned
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: to blay wan too many times in a past relationship,
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: I would say keep keep your eyes and ears open um,
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: don't don't necessarily turn a blind die um. Again, I
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: don't know him, so I don't know the situation. But
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: it is weird that it's full body what doesn't need
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: to be but private parts. Don't put on weight in
- 1:10:55Speaker 1: the holiday cover that up with box. He's starting to
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: get a self confidence back. Maybe he's quite well endowed.
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: If it did, though, think about how cool that would be.
- 1:11:11Speaker 1: I would make Garrett so much pasta If if this
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: was one of my best friends, I would say, don't
- 1:11:22Speaker 1: be stupid and listen to your gut what do you think, Garrett.
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: I think what Becca said is don't be stupid, listen
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: to your gut. Um. But I mean, if this is
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: the first thing and the relationship has been good ever
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: since the beginning, I mean, just trust his word now,
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: but definitely keep that in the back of your head
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: and stay aware. You know, I want to give him
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt here, so say I'm gonna
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: go down that path. Yeah, this is where I think
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: it separates is now it falls on him. He's got
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: to see that this is weird, right, no matter what
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: is intention. We all know we talked about a little
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: bit ago. Relationships are weird. We're all weird people. We
- 1:11:59Speaker 1: do weird things. You're partner is gonna fall in love
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: with you and deal with your weirdness. Like if Garrett's
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: loves taking pictures of himself and for the mirror because
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: it boost is self confidence. If you love Garrett, even
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: though you might be like, this is the weirdest thing ever,
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: You're gonna be like, Garrett, just stop being weird. But
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: like that's fine. He just better send him to me
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: right after that piece of pie. But that this, this
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: is where my point here. It now falls on him.
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: He needs to respond to you in a loving way
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: and say, I get that this is weird, I get
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: to this awkward. I'm telling you the truth, and let
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: me just prove it to you. You have, you have
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: full access to anything of mine, have nothing to hide
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: from here on out for a while, you know, if
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: not forever. You don't need to check. But just know
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: that you can trust me. And I want to prove
- 1:12:40Speaker 1: that to you by my response, because yeah, you just
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: saw a picture of me butt naked in the mirror
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: that I didn't send to you like, this is weird.
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: I'm sorry, So ask him communicate. I think it's healthy
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: for relationship. Maybe just communicate on that level. Anyways, it
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: is Hey. Before we go, we have to tell our
