- 1:17Speaker 1: They've been a huge sponsor the podcast for months now,
- 1:23Speaker 1: and this event is going to be nothing but special.
- 1:28Speaker 1: Ashley and Jared, I have a special gift for you,
- 1:30Speaker 1: but before I give it to you, I want to
- 1:32Speaker 1: ask the two of you, why did you choose Crate
- 1:35Speaker 1: and Barrel for your registry. What I love about Crate
- 1:38Speaker 1: and barrel Um is that I feel like it's adult
- 1:40Speaker 1: furniture in the best way that I say that because
- 1:44Speaker 1: Jared and I, well, he moved into an apartment with
- 1:47Speaker 1: my sister. It was my sister in my apartment and
- 1:50Speaker 1: we were only there for like a month until we
- 1:53Speaker 1: realized that it was probably the smartest decision to move
- 1:56Speaker 1: in together. He didn't, you know, We just it would
- 2:00Speaker 1: have been logistically really weird if we did live apart. Anyway,
- 2:04Speaker 1: the bottom line here is that we had like a
- 2:07Speaker 1: really girly apartment. We had a decorator come in and
- 2:09Speaker 1: like make all these crystal chandeliers and everything had like
- 2:13Speaker 1: a shade of pink attached to it. So what we're
- 2:16Speaker 1: really excited about is when we are a married couple
- 2:20Speaker 1: to totally redecorate the place, make it a little bit
- 2:23Speaker 1: more masculine, but definitely timeless and classic and Crate and
- 2:28Speaker 1: Barrel has everything for every room, and you know that
- 2:31Speaker 1: it's going to be well made, it's gonna last so long,
- 2:35Speaker 1: and um, it's just going it's it's gonna be quality, classic,
- 2:40Speaker 1: timeless style for a lifetime. Jared everything. Actually, just say no.
- 2:46Speaker 1: Crane Barrow is awesome, man, Like, every time you go
- 2:48Speaker 1: in there, I just want to spend a lot, a
- 2:50Speaker 1: lot of money. So it's really nice to have Crane
- 2:53Speaker 1: Barrel by our wedding registry because then other people can
- 2:55Speaker 1: buy a stuff that we really like. That's the best part.
- 2:58Speaker 1: When we were registering, he was like, I feel like
- 3:01Speaker 1: it's just we're free free stuff. It's like, well, it's
- 3:04Speaker 1: free for us, I guess for our guests, not for me.
- 3:07Speaker 1: It was just you went around in scannies. It was like, yeah,
- 3:10Speaker 1: I like those wine glasses. Click, I like those towels.
- 3:12Speaker 1: Click the price tag on this click. You know. I
- 3:15Speaker 1: never thought I'd be so excited over something that came
- 3:18Speaker 1: in the mail from actually podcast fans. It's been amazing
- 3:22Speaker 1: how many people listen to the podcast are Instagram and
- 3:26Speaker 1: we don't even know them, but they send us gives
- 3:27Speaker 1: to the Mark Crane and Barrel Registry. This week we
- 3:30Speaker 1: got a dual curing and coffee makers. You can make
- 3:33Speaker 1: a pot or coffee cup. It was very exciting for us.
- 3:37Speaker 1: What's your favorite coffee? I only drink Dunk. It's so
- 3:42Speaker 1: bad as I make it every morning. Yeah, you guys
- 3:47Speaker 1: know I have a coffee company. We just kill my favorite.
- 3:55Speaker 1: I will say that. Like in the in bag form
- 3:59Speaker 1: it's general R and duncan. I think generous is bad
- 4:02Speaker 1: at home form is better than and I'm about to
- 4:05Speaker 1: save you. Um. This is a gift that Ashley has
- 4:09Speaker 1: been telling me about for months now. Uh, Lauren, actually
- 4:13Speaker 1: sister is actually in the audience. She's gonna be uh
- 4:15Speaker 1: moving out right and this will be moving in. This
- 4:19Speaker 1: is to you, actually, Jed, thank you. I'm going to
- 4:22Speaker 1: be as good as the coffee maker. We'll see. I'm
- 4:25Speaker 1: already hurt um as as quick enough to like think
- 4:31Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, that's been nice. Hey Jared, how about
- 4:37Speaker 1: you read into the microphone what I wrote into the card? Please?
- 4:43Speaker 1: Uh it says the big day is almost here almost
- 4:50Speaker 1: from Ben Higgins. Love Ben Higgins is what I was
- 4:53Speaker 1: hoping it would say. Yes, love, love Ben Higgins. Do
- 4:56Speaker 1: you know what these are? I don't know what those are.
- 4:58Speaker 1: They're the blue curve tins. Oh yeah, okay, so a
- 5:03Speaker 1: little backstory. When you know you're getting old, you get
- 5:06Speaker 1: excited about blue curtains. I may have told then that
- 5:10Speaker 1: if you were to get anything off the registrary, I
- 5:12Speaker 1: really wanted the blue curtains because our dog likes to
- 5:15Speaker 1: lift his leg and p on our curtains. He's moving
- 5:18Speaker 1: out with Lauren. Uh he's Lauren's dog, but he's our
- 5:22Speaker 1: family dog as well. And um, that's perfect, perfect because
- 5:29Speaker 1: ours are now sparkly silver. So to make it more masculine,
- 5:33Speaker 1: we're going to make the family room blue curtains. This
- 5:35Speaker 1: will already be the most manly thing in the entire house.
- 5:39Speaker 1: So thank you for that. It's his favorite decorating color.
- 5:42Speaker 1: That's amazing. Real quick, I want to talk about the
- 5:45Speaker 1: transition now, uh to we have a lot to talk
- 5:48Speaker 1: about tonight. One of the things I want to talk
- 5:50Speaker 1: about is the transition to living just with the two
- 5:54Speaker 1: of you. Your sister has been with you for a while,
- 5:56Speaker 1: and you've talked about how great it's been. Which Lauren,
- 5:58Speaker 1: come up here. I think, well, Lord, let's come up
- 6:00Speaker 1: here for a second. I can't wait to ask because
- 6:06Speaker 1: the craziest thing about Ashley is I always expect some
- 6:09Speaker 1: wild stories to be told about a sister living with
- 6:12Speaker 1: a couple that's engaged, and there's yet to play there.
- 6:15Speaker 1: We have no content of crazy dramatic stories that are happening. Lauren,
- 6:20Speaker 1: What has it been like to live with this couple? Oh?
- 6:24Speaker 1: It's so easy, it really is, Are you kidding me?
- 6:28Speaker 1: I have to listen to a lot of sponsored ads
- 6:30Speaker 1: every single day. That's probably the hardest thing is I
- 6:33Speaker 1: have to listen to Ashley mess up into it over again,
- 6:35Speaker 1: mess him and Jared's very good about it, but hey,
- 6:40Speaker 1: you get if Jared can't land it the anger? Yeah,
- 6:44Speaker 1: that's what I It's unbelievable how angry you get from
- 6:47Speaker 1: a stupid Instagram story. If you mess up once, you're like,
- 6:50Speaker 1: damn it. Well. I want to ask you, though, so
- 6:54Speaker 1: to get serious for a second, what have you seen
- 6:57Speaker 1: about their love story kind of play out over last year?
- 7:00Speaker 1: And I want to ask every person that comes up here,
- 7:02Speaker 1: because everybody knows them personally, what have you witnessed and
- 7:04Speaker 1: what have you seen that's inspired you or also that
- 7:07Speaker 1: you've learned from You're gonna make me cry, Bin I
- 7:10Speaker 1: cry every time. UM there there. I know it's like
- 7:15Speaker 1: so cliche, but they're best friends, but they also push
- 7:18Speaker 1: each other to be better, and it's kind of like
- 7:21Speaker 1: they just lift each other up every day rather than
- 7:24Speaker 1: you know, tearing them down, and they're just really cute together.
- 7:31Speaker 1: There's a there's an interesting story I want to tell
- 7:34Speaker 1: why you're up here. I want to talk about. Um.
- 7:36Speaker 1: I was outside doing an interview and then and uh,
- 7:40Speaker 1: the reporter asked, you know, when was it that you
- 7:42Speaker 1: kind of recognize that this could be something again for
- 7:45Speaker 1: Ashley and Jared, and I thought, back, there's a I
- 7:48Speaker 1: know this exact moment. So we're in Carmel, California. We
- 7:52Speaker 1: had gotten off of Winter Games. Actually, you know what
- 7:55Speaker 1: a lot of people don't know is I really met
- 7:56Speaker 1: Ashley from the podcast. We had known each other off
- 7:59Speaker 1: and on before the podcast, but when we really started
- 8:01Speaker 1: to get to know each other personally was really our
- 8:04Speaker 1: first time doing this. And for me, this podcast is
- 8:07Speaker 1: super special because we had planned it for two months.
- 8:11Speaker 1: I didn't know Ashley. I was nervous about this whole
- 8:14Speaker 1: new venture. Amy, our producer, was just getting this thing started.
- 8:17Speaker 1: It was an experiment and it just so happened that
- 8:21Speaker 1: the week that Lord and I broke up was the
- 8:23Speaker 1: week that we've recorded our first episode. UM, and so
- 8:30Speaker 1: we dive into this whole podcast world where it's meant
- 8:33Speaker 1: to be intimate, and it's meant you're really meant to
- 8:35Speaker 1: share content that's vulnerable and real. And I was in
- 8:39Speaker 1: the most real place in my life ever. And then
- 8:41Speaker 1: I meet Ashley, who was also in the most real
- 8:43Speaker 1: place of her life because at that point her and
- 8:46Speaker 1: Jared were really good friends, but they were friends, and
- 8:49Speaker 1: I kept asking, I've always loved Jared. We met on
- 8:51Speaker 1: our season of The Bachelorette, and I've always had a
- 8:54Speaker 1: lot of respect for him as a man, as a person.
- 8:56Speaker 1: I was like, this couple works, Like why isn't it working.
- 8:59Speaker 1: I would always as I messed with Ashley, to the
- 9:01Speaker 1: point where I almost felt like I was offending her,
- 9:04Speaker 1: like why aren't you and Jared dating? She's like, we're
- 9:06Speaker 1: just friends And he would sleep on her couch and
- 9:08Speaker 1: stuff and was weird and I never got it, And
- 9:11Speaker 1: I always defended Jared. When you would ask me those questions,
- 9:14Speaker 1: I was like, don't bring it up, because like I
- 9:15Speaker 1: know that he said sensitive. Yeah, it was it was weird,
- 9:19Speaker 1: but here's what it was on UM. But here's what happened.
- 9:23Speaker 1: And so I see Ashley in this season of life
- 9:26Speaker 1: that I'll explained from a distance saying that she was
- 9:29Speaker 1: questioning a lot um, she didn't know where life was
- 9:31Speaker 1: taking her. She was getting ready turn thirty. Um, there
- 9:34Speaker 1: are a lot of big obstacles in a way, and
- 9:35Speaker 1: she was super emotional, and the emotional Ashley that we
- 9:38Speaker 1: loved but we also felt for often because her emotions
- 9:42Speaker 1: were real and true, and you'd sit there and you'd
- 9:44Speaker 1: see her share these things about life and these big
- 9:47Speaker 1: questions that she have and kind of break down. And
- 9:50Speaker 1: as her friend at that point and somebody that had
- 9:52Speaker 1: already kind of gone through a rough season of my
- 9:54Speaker 1: life with her, there isn't a really good response other
- 9:57Speaker 1: than sitting in it. So then we just I had
- 10:00Speaker 1: to do win our games together, which was a wild
- 10:02Speaker 1: deal UM for me. I had not expect to go
- 10:06Speaker 1: back on the show. Actually had talked about it, and
- 10:08Speaker 1: we decided to give it a shot. So we go
- 10:09Speaker 1: and win our games and she dives in head first
- 10:12Speaker 1: because she is in that season of life with a
- 10:14Speaker 1: lot of things that are open to her and um.
- 10:16Speaker 1: She ends up exploring a relationship with Kevin and they
- 10:19Speaker 1: end up breaking up and we're going on a car.
- 10:21Speaker 1: I just Ashley and I right after this whole scenario
- 10:24Speaker 1: and we start talking and I could and Ashley was,
- 10:26Speaker 1: can I ask you a question? I said, yeah, she goes,
- 10:29Speaker 1: Jared just told me that he has feelings for me
- 10:31Speaker 1: and I don't know what to do about it. And
- 10:33Speaker 1: I said, what do you want to do about it?
- 10:35Speaker 1: She's like, I think I want to see if it
- 10:37Speaker 1: could work. And at that moment, like I almost tried
- 10:41Speaker 1: to talk you about if I remember I sat in
- 10:42Speaker 1: the part I was just going to call you out
- 10:44Speaker 1: on that. Yeah, I was like, wait, you I can't
- 10:46Speaker 1: see and the reason I was like, I don't want
- 10:48Speaker 1: you to set up for disappointment. Yeah, like you definitely
- 10:51Speaker 1: were like defensive about it, like I felt like you
- 10:53Speaker 1: didn't fully believe it or you thought I was exaggerating
- 10:56Speaker 1: I did. I I think I remember, like, are you
- 10:58Speaker 1: over like an Liz in this situation? Does he really
- 11:01Speaker 1: care about you? Because I know how fragile you are
- 11:03Speaker 1: right now, like are you actually willing to dive into this?
- 11:06Speaker 1: And is he willing to dive into this because once
- 11:08Speaker 1: you do, there's there's there's two pass to complete happiness
- 11:14Speaker 1: or a lot of emotion and a lot a lot
- 11:16Speaker 1: of star and a lot of sentence. And I don't
- 11:17Speaker 1: want to see you that again. Before I know, they're
- 11:20Speaker 1: diving back in and look at them the day and
- 11:22Speaker 1: I'll say this about Ashley today and then this is
- 11:25Speaker 1: gonna be about Jared and Ashley as a couple. And Jared,
- 11:28Speaker 1: this is a compliment to you. And I want to
- 11:29Speaker 1: know if you've seen this as well. There's been this
- 11:33Speaker 1: like transformation that is so tangible and Ashley where there's
- 11:38Speaker 1: a confidence and there's a steadfastness, and there's a clarity
- 11:41Speaker 1: and a quality of the life where she isn't a
- 11:45Speaker 1: nervous wreck walking into the studio anymore. She's confident, she's
- 11:48Speaker 1: at peace even when things are swirling around her. She
- 11:50Speaker 1: knows that she has her rock beside her. And there's
- 11:54Speaker 1: just the stability to Ashley. And I don't know if
- 11:56Speaker 1: you as listeners to the podcast, if you've noticed it,
- 11:59Speaker 1: but there's a a tangible stability to Ashley's life that
- 12:02Speaker 1: is that really happened when Jared came into it, and
- 12:05Speaker 1: it's been one of the coolest things for a friend
- 12:07Speaker 1: to see and also for a co host to see.
- 12:09Speaker 1: And Lauren, I want to know if you've seen it.
- 12:12Speaker 1: Every time she does something that I would be like
- 12:14Speaker 1: I woul my pants. You know, I would be very nervous,
- 12:17Speaker 1: like today she went to go get her first fitting
- 12:20Speaker 1: for her wedding dress, very exciting. I would be a
- 12:23Speaker 1: nervous wreck, which she is so confident in everything she does.
- 12:26Speaker 1: I'm like, how do you do it? She's just like
- 12:28Speaker 1: so confident literally ever since Jared kind of admitted her feelings.
- 12:32Speaker 1: Nothing makes her nervous. Stavility is a great word, though,
- 12:35Speaker 1: because I always keep saying, like in my head, I'm
- 12:37Speaker 1: like I was so much more emotionally stable, so she
- 12:39Speaker 1: doesn't cry. Kind of sucks. It's so boring. I'll do
- 12:45Speaker 1: you a question my like, if I'm more boring now,
- 12:48Speaker 1: Like that's one of my biggest in securities. We did this.
- 12:50Speaker 1: I don't get a podcast about like what we are
- 12:53Speaker 1: most insecure about now? And I actually said that I
- 12:55Speaker 1: feel like I could be boring to my audience because
- 13:00Speaker 1: I'm so emotionally stable. It's not boring, just good people
- 13:03Speaker 1: should be happy for it's working, right and that's that
- 13:05Speaker 1: new transition. Jared, let's back check and then I have
- 13:09Speaker 1: some direct questions for you. But what happened leading up
- 13:11Speaker 1: to that moment where you wanted to express your feelings? Ashley? Uh,
- 13:18Speaker 1: well we did at five minute video and you'll say
- 13:23Speaker 1: it again. You guys just got a glimpse into our lives.
- 13:26Speaker 1: I get asked a question and Ashley answered, uh, yeah,
- 13:31Speaker 1: I mean obviously we talked about it before, but it
- 13:33Speaker 1: was more like you said, I mean, I think for
- 13:35Speaker 1: a long time. Uh. And Nick can attest to this
- 13:40Speaker 1: because he knows me pretty well. I'm very Uh, he
- 13:43Speaker 1: looks thrilled, it looks so happy. I I am a
- 13:49Speaker 1: man of comfort. I like kind of like my little
- 13:52Speaker 1: place in this world. And uh, Ashley is the complete
- 13:56Speaker 1: opposite of that. And Ben, like you were saying earlier, Um,
- 14:00Speaker 1: if Ashley and I were to ever date after our
- 14:03Speaker 1: first season in Paradise, it would have gone one of
- 14:05Speaker 1: two ways, either complete happiness or complete sadness. And I
- 14:09Speaker 1: think that was always kind of terrifying for me because
- 14:11Speaker 1: I was always confused about my feelings and so I
- 14:13Speaker 1: never really was willing to dive in. And then, of
- 14:17Speaker 1: course we were best friends and we would talk all
- 14:19Speaker 1: the time. So life was good and nothing ever needed
- 14:22Speaker 1: to be changed. And then all of a sudden, something
- 14:23Speaker 1: changed and she started dating someone else. And I kind
- 14:26Speaker 1: of looked, you know, I was living in Rhode Island
- 14:29Speaker 1: while I was actually living with Nick at the time,
- 14:31Speaker 1: and but I was in Rhode Island when I was
- 14:33Speaker 1: kind of finding everything about about Winter Games, and I
- 14:36Speaker 1: mean I heard rumors that she was engaged, and I
- 14:38Speaker 1: was like, just you know, obviously in my room, uh,
- 14:43Speaker 1: in my own head, trying to think of, you know,
- 14:46Speaker 1: what I should do. How much of an idiot I've been,
- 14:48Speaker 1: how I've I haven't said anything in in in the
- 14:52Speaker 1: past three years, haven't done anything. I haven't said anything.
- 14:56Speaker 1: You know, you just all of a sudden, you you blink.
- 14:58Speaker 1: You know, you go on this crazy adventure the Bachelor
- 15:00Speaker 1: and Bachelor in Paradise, and you kind of just like
- 15:02Speaker 1: roll with everything that happens from it, and all of
- 15:04Speaker 1: a sudden, you blink. In three years of your life
- 15:06Speaker 1: goes by and you're like, holy have I said anything
- 15:08Speaker 1: that I've truly meant? And so and then you know,
- 15:11Speaker 1: we were in St. Lucia. We had a pre planned
- 15:14Speaker 1: trip with our friends, Tanner and Jade and and uh
- 15:17Speaker 1: and and Paul and Katon and Lauren was there too,
- 15:20Speaker 1: and Ashley and and uh and so I decided I
- 15:23Speaker 1: had to go down there and say something. And then
- 15:25Speaker 1: that was when everything changed. And now we sit here
- 15:30Speaker 1: today getting prep for the biggest day of your lives,
- 15:34Speaker 1: Ashley and Jared. This is all came full circle your couple,
- 15:38Speaker 1: just like the world intended to be. What are you
- 15:40Speaker 1: most excited for for this wedding day? Uh? What are
- 15:45Speaker 1: you most excited about? I think I'm most excited. I'm
- 15:49Speaker 1: most excited to think. Okay, never mind, Well I was
- 15:53Speaker 1: gonna say, I'm I'm most excited about to be in
- 15:55Speaker 1: one room with the people that I care most about
- 15:58Speaker 1: in this world. Um, to celebrate this date. It's friends
- 16:02Speaker 1: and family, and to celebrate our love and and and
- 16:06Speaker 1: and just to have that moment, you know, with everybody together.
- 16:08Speaker 1: I think that's what I'm most excited about. I'm the
- 16:11Speaker 1: I am more excited about something specific. And I guess
- 16:14Speaker 1: that's just like the doors opening to the church and
- 16:16Speaker 1: seeing Jared and then being next to my idea, Jared,
- 16:19Speaker 1: do you think you'll cry on the wedding day? Um?
- 16:24Speaker 1: I don't know. That's a great question. I cried. I
- 16:27Speaker 1: cried at my sister's wedding, So you're a goner for
- 16:30Speaker 1: this one when I never thought i'd cry. And then
- 16:35Speaker 1: I saw at my sister's wedding they had a carriage.
- 16:40Speaker 1: I was in. I was in the grins of party.
- 16:41Speaker 1: They had definitely in the most tearful moment. Yeah, yeah,
- 16:44Speaker 1: they had. There was a carriage where my dad and
- 16:46Speaker 1: and my sister h you know, pulled up this big day.
- 16:50Speaker 1: You know, dude, you're gonna ball, man. This is what
- 16:57Speaker 1: I love. So, this is what I love about j
- 17:00Speaker 1: too is he is so He knocked me out once
- 17:02Speaker 1: during the Bachelor att Oh my god, was no knocked
- 17:06Speaker 1: me the ground. It was a bunch of the face.
- 17:07Speaker 1: Tough dude, real tough dude. But he's a dude. They
- 17:09Speaker 1: can cry. Also, when those doors swing open and Ashley
- 17:13Speaker 1: standing there, it's gonna top obviously because Lauren's gonna be there.
- 17:17Speaker 1: My dad is my best man, so he'll be standing
- 17:18Speaker 1: around down the aisle together. Yeah so big big, big
- 17:22Speaker 1: Fred is my dad's name, Big Fred, and he'll be
- 17:26Speaker 1: walking Lauren down the aisle. Should be very nice moment.
- 17:30Speaker 1: The Lauren's gonna cry right now. I'm totally fine everyone,
- 17:35Speaker 1: Um Ashley, for you, you know, I've never I don't
- 17:39Speaker 1: think I've asked you this is the wedding day, something
- 17:41Speaker 1: that you've thought of for a long time or for
- 17:44Speaker 1: all the kind of princess moments that you wanted to
- 17:46Speaker 1: have in life. Was the wedding ever a part of that?
- 17:48Speaker 1: Oh yeah, definitely, um, I because I've always imagined the day.
- 17:55Speaker 1: I'm kind of flabbergasted by how calm I am about
- 17:58Speaker 1: the planning process and how actually anti bridezilla I've been,
- 18:04Speaker 1: right Lauren, Like it's almost been weird. Like I did
- 18:06Speaker 1: my fitting my bridal dress, like my bridal dress, my
- 18:09Speaker 1: wedding dress, fitting my wedding gown was I did that
- 18:13Speaker 1: this morning and like I didn't cry. I'm just like
- 18:16Speaker 1: super happy and I think it's like so amazing. But
- 18:19Speaker 1: nothing about it. They're like what about your earrings? What
- 18:21Speaker 1: about your shoes? And like how about a bracelet? I'm like,
- 18:23Speaker 1: I don't care. Whatever, The important thing is take care
- 18:25Speaker 1: of that. You're just married, which I feel like I
- 18:28Speaker 1: can tell me if I'm wrong. Months ago before, Jared,
- 18:31Speaker 1: in your mind would have like either made you emotional
- 18:35Speaker 1: or freaked you out to a point of instability, Like
- 18:38Speaker 1: there is this stability to your life now that I
- 18:40Speaker 1: feel like it's tangible, and this is a good example
- 18:42Speaker 1: of it. I feel like everything's in perspective. Okay. I
- 18:45Speaker 1: also think it's just it's planning, right. It's like anything
- 18:48Speaker 1: in life. When you start planning something, it becomes like
- 18:50Speaker 1: a part time job and you're like, Okay, well we
- 18:52Speaker 1: gotta get this done and get that done and bah
- 18:53Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah, and it's like, you know, just
- 18:55Speaker 1: day after day after day. And I think, hopefully what
- 18:58Speaker 1: I'm hoping for is that the weekly eating out the wedding,
- 19:00Speaker 1: it's gonna be like, holy we're getting married this week. Yeah,
- 19:03Speaker 1: I think that's one's really good at dawn on us,
- 19:05Speaker 1: I think right now because when I'm planning actually is
- 19:08Speaker 1: very similar to our part time job, like a lot
- 19:10Speaker 1: of like logistics and scheduling and like doing this and
- 19:12Speaker 1: then doing that and then running there and blah blah. Um.
- 19:15Speaker 1: I feel like we don't even realize sometimes that there's
- 19:18Speaker 1: a difference between our wedding and our job. And it
- 19:21Speaker 1: has been filled with many, uh incredible moments, though like
- 19:24Speaker 1: a lot of moments that you just kind of look
- 19:26Speaker 1: back at right now you're like, wow, that was you know,
- 19:30Speaker 1: this is it, this is we're planning for this day.
- 19:32Speaker 1: I think when that holy crap, and it's cool. Our
- 19:37Speaker 1: our wedding player in his name is Troy Williams is
- 19:39Speaker 1: like the most eccentric man you'll ever meet. He's fantastic though,
- 19:43Speaker 1: uh And so like having him a part of this
- 19:45Speaker 1: entire process, like him flying to Rhode Island with us,
- 19:47Speaker 1: and like doing all these things and food tastings and
- 19:49Speaker 1: venues and like being able to do it with my
- 19:51Speaker 1: friends and family, and like showing my parents and her parents,
- 19:53Speaker 1: like her parents flew up to Rhode Island and it
- 19:55Speaker 1: was her parents, my parents, and it was like we
- 19:59Speaker 1: went to the venue and a like, guys, this is
- 20:00Speaker 1: where we're gonna get married. And then this is where
- 20:02Speaker 1: the reception is going to be, and like Dad, you're
- 20:04Speaker 1: gonna stand there, and my mom you're gonna be right there.
- 20:07Speaker 1: And it's like that's the exciting part of being like, yeah,
- 20:10Speaker 1: this is this is where it's all gonna happen. This
- 20:12Speaker 1: is where it's gonna be. So that's been by far
- 20:15Speaker 1: the most fun of wedding planning thus far being able
- 20:17Speaker 1: to do it with with our family and uh, and
- 20:19Speaker 1: just like the anticipation of like, yeah, this is this
- 20:22Speaker 1: is crazy, like yeah, what do you what should we do?
- 20:25Speaker 1: Like do you want to stand there? Do you want
- 20:26Speaker 1: to stand there? You know? Well, when it comes to
- 20:28Speaker 1: things like that, then I have an immediate opinion. I
- 20:30Speaker 1: either have an immediate opinion that I feel strongly about
- 20:33Speaker 1: or have no opinion at out at all. And I
- 20:35Speaker 1: can be like you can just choose Jared, choose it out. Well. Hey, um,
- 20:39Speaker 1: we're gonna be uble a couple more guests tonight. We
- 20:41Speaker 1: have a packed house full of Bachelor Nation in here
- 20:44Speaker 1: and Batchelor contestants that are friends of yours who are
- 20:47Speaker 1: either married, going to be getting married, maybe looking for relationship,
- 20:51Speaker 1: and they're gonna come up tonight and share as much
- 20:53Speaker 1: advice and perspective as possible with the two of you. Uh,
- 20:57Speaker 1: everybody out there, give a round of a pause for
- 20:59Speaker 1: Lauren for coming up here. And Nancy, I would like
- 21:04Speaker 1: to see you and Lauren do a podcast like if
- 21:06Speaker 1: I'm not here one week, you and Laurence to do it. Hilarious.
- 21:09Speaker 1: I've always I've always thought Lauren was great. Uh, and
- 21:11Speaker 1: you know what else it thinks great is Crate and Barrel.
- 21:13Speaker 1: So let's take a second to talk about Crane Barrel.
- 21:15Speaker 1: It's obviously our wedding, but I do have to say
- 21:18Speaker 1: that throughout all the stress of planning, I do need
- 21:21Speaker 1: some me time. It's actually more important than ever. And
- 21:25Speaker 1: my morning routine has been enhanced by some of the
- 21:28Speaker 1: gifts that Jared and I have been getting from our
- 21:30Speaker 1: wedding registry, from Crate and Barrel. These gifts have been
- 21:33Speaker 1: coming in far before our bridle shower and our wedding,
- 21:38Speaker 1: and it's been awesome. I've gotten the best, like fluffy,
- 21:42Speaker 1: soft Turkish towels, robes, bath mats that make my morning
- 21:47Speaker 1: shower and my coffee so much more enjoyable. You wouldn't
- 21:51Speaker 1: even know. I didn't know this before, but Crate and
- 21:54Speaker 1: Barrel actually has a wide assortment of SPA products like shampoos, lotions,
- 22:00Speaker 1: and candles. So I'll lie in our bath, I light
- 22:02Speaker 1: some candles. It's good. It's just like a little period.
- 22:06Speaker 1: Jared's getting all worked up over there. He loves a
- 22:09Speaker 1: good bath, like that man loves a bath, and like
- 22:12Speaker 1: he thinks like he likes thinks water is the sexiest
- 22:15Speaker 1: thing ever. So, like you know, decorate a bathroom nicely
- 22:19Speaker 1: and like Jared's in a good mood. So if you
- 22:22Speaker 1: guys are getting married out there, I highly suggest creating
- 22:28Speaker 1: a registry with Crate and Barrel, because not only can
- 22:30Speaker 1: you get stuff of your kitchen, your family room, your bedroom,
- 22:34Speaker 1: you can also get stuff of your bathroom and the
- 22:37Speaker 1: towels are to die for. You can start your Crtan
- 22:40Speaker 1: Barrel registry now at Crton Barrel dot com slash Wedding
- 22:44Speaker 1: Dash Registry. Again, highly suggest you do your registry or
- 22:48Speaker 1: at least one of them with Crate and Barrel Crate
- 22:51Speaker 1: and Barrel dot com slash Wedding Dash Registry. All right,
- 22:54Speaker 1: coming up to the hot seat, next is Chris and Crystal.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Chris and Crystal and join throw over here. Come on up,
- 23:05Speaker 1: you guys can take my seat in the seat across.
- 23:07Speaker 1: I'm gonna grab a new mic. Just please don't mess
- 23:09Speaker 1: up my papers. Um, this sound's gonna work. We're gonna
- 23:13Speaker 1: get to hear about your lives and the lives of
- 23:15Speaker 1: the people coming up here. And then we have a
- 23:17Speaker 1: couple things that we want to talk to. Jared Nashley
- 23:19Speaker 1: about but this is ultimately a night to celebrate Jared Nashley.
- 23:22Speaker 1: This is not a roast, even though it kind of
- 23:24Speaker 1: feels like it with him sitting up here in a
- 23:26Speaker 1: little bit that would be fun. Be fun. You can
- 23:28Speaker 1: toast me. Um, Nick's not allowed to rest the So
- 23:35Speaker 1: Chris and Crystal this, Uh, you guys are a Paradise couple. Um,
- 23:39Speaker 1: you met in Paradise, you fell in love in Paradise.
- 23:42Speaker 1: How are you handling engagement? Do you want to take that? Um,
- 23:50Speaker 1: it's been a while ride come tomorrow would be actually
- 23:53Speaker 1: one year that we uh known each other. So but
- 23:57Speaker 1: I would say it's for the most part, it's been incredible, uh,
- 24:01Speaker 1: but also definitely challenging at times. And uh it's those
- 24:06Speaker 1: moments that help you kind of understand, uh, picking each
- 24:10Speaker 1: other up and making each other better and the definition
- 24:13Speaker 1: of a team. So that's that's something I really enjoy. Yeah,
- 24:17Speaker 1: I agree, and I think that Um, for a lot
- 24:19Speaker 1: of you who don't know. Christals in Florida and I
- 24:21Speaker 1: was in San Diego, So we were on the completely
- 24:23Speaker 1: opposite sides of the country for a few months after
- 24:27Speaker 1: the engagement when we had to keep it a secret
- 24:29Speaker 1: and no one could know um. And as soon as
- 24:32Speaker 1: I was, like the week before the finale, he actually
- 24:34Speaker 1: came out to San Diego to live with me in
- 24:37Speaker 1: three hundreds of square feet with the other side of
- 24:41Speaker 1: the stage. Maybe it was divided by three rooms to
- 24:47Speaker 1: plus a bathroom in the closet. It was very intimate,
- 24:50Speaker 1: very small, and we actually had no problems with it.
- 24:53Speaker 1: And it was it was Chris and I giving up
- 24:57Speaker 1: our old selves to start this life in this chapter together.
- 25:01Speaker 1: And when we met, we were both like, we don't
- 25:03Speaker 1: ever want to get married. So it was wild that
- 25:06Speaker 1: we got engaged. But I think we just saw, you know,
- 25:10Speaker 1: ourselves in each other and it allowed us to kind
- 25:14Speaker 1: of make peace with the past of who we were
- 25:17Speaker 1: and find love within each other. So it's been a
- 25:20Speaker 1: real blessing. Let's sit there for a second, because you
- 25:22Speaker 1: just said something that is not tying into my next
- 25:25Speaker 1: question at all. As you said, when you guys first met,
- 25:27Speaker 1: your reaction was we're not going to get married, Like
- 25:30Speaker 1: not like we're not gonna get married, but just individually,
- 25:32Speaker 1: like we're not interested in getting married. What changed. Yeah,
- 25:36Speaker 1: the first conversation we were in the pool, like second
- 25:39Speaker 1: day of Paradise, and she was like, you know, I
- 25:43Speaker 1: really don't ever want to get married, and I like
- 25:46Speaker 1: look back at her and I was like, you were
- 25:48Speaker 1: like tight, I mean that's exactly what I said. I
- 25:53Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I mean neither, you know. And then
- 25:55Speaker 1: like from there just kind of over time kind of
- 25:59Speaker 1: change used our perception throughout Paradise. I guess there was more. Well,
- 26:03Speaker 1: I was gonna say, is this because you guys both
- 26:05Speaker 1: came from single moms. Yes, it was that conversation. I
- 26:09Speaker 1: think when you come from like the forest families, you
- 26:13Speaker 1: tend to be kind of apprehensive of wanting to get
- 26:17Speaker 1: married because you saw a huge breakup and how it
- 26:19Speaker 1: affects the family. So yeah, I would say that definitely
- 26:22Speaker 1: plays a key role for sure. So then what was
- 26:25Speaker 1: the moment? And this was the question I was going
- 26:27Speaker 1: to ask, because I don't it actually tries to explain
- 26:30Speaker 1: Paradise to me all the time, and I've never I've
- 26:34Speaker 1: only been down to visit and I've never quite got it.
- 26:36Speaker 1: But it works, it works a lot, it works often. Um,
- 26:40Speaker 1: what was the moment then that maybe the viewers in
- 26:42Speaker 1: the sea or maybe we just didn't pick up on
- 26:44Speaker 1: where you went time out like what I thought was
- 26:47Speaker 1: happening when I came into this has now completely changed
- 26:49Speaker 1: because of this other person. Well, for me, it was
- 26:53Speaker 1: the morning after we had our first kiss, which was
- 26:58Speaker 1: about eight days into Paradise. That's a long time into paradise.
- 27:02Speaker 1: That's like, that's like, really it's like a lifetime. That's
- 27:06Speaker 1: like at least three months out here. Okay, really in
- 27:09Speaker 1: the real world, Yeah, it really is. Because just so
- 27:15Speaker 1: you guys know, you spent about twenty hours all day
- 27:17Speaker 1: long together in Paradise, and you're kind of putting these
- 27:20Speaker 1: conversations with producers where you really dive in deep head
- 27:25Speaker 1: first and you tackle the hard stuff right away. So
- 27:29Speaker 1: I knew, you know, Chris's values, um, and I just
- 27:34Speaker 1: knew like intimate details of his life, about his father
- 27:37Speaker 1: and the role he played and didn't before I knew
- 27:40Speaker 1: his favorite color, his favorite restaurant, um. So you definitely
- 27:43Speaker 1: get to know each other in that deeper sense first.
- 27:45Speaker 1: But I would say that we had our first kiss
- 27:48Speaker 1: and when we finally finally got to have that talk
- 27:52Speaker 1: at the wedding Chapel Cabana, the one when you walked
- 27:54Speaker 1: on the service to the left the wedding Chapel Caban
- 27:57Speaker 1: is what it's called. We finally got together and all
- 28:01Speaker 1: night we've been trying to meet up and finally connect
- 28:04Speaker 1: because we were both dating other people. And we have
- 28:08Speaker 1: that kiss that was like ten minutes straight and one
- 28:13Speaker 1: to bed that night and we were walking to the
- 28:14Speaker 1: beach and I just felt so much joy and love
- 28:17Speaker 1: and happiness in my heart and I just felt so
- 28:20Speaker 1: like divinely guided to like I have to talk to Chris.
- 28:23Speaker 1: I have to get to know him more. And it
- 28:25Speaker 1: was like days and days and days, and producers were like, no,
- 28:28Speaker 1: you need to date Kenny, and I was like, no,
- 28:30Speaker 1: I have to date Chris, like I have to get
- 28:32Speaker 1: to know him. And so we had our first kiss.
- 28:34Speaker 1: And the next morning I woke up and I was like,
- 28:37Speaker 1: I got out of bed, took a few steps sound,
- 28:39Speaker 1: and I was like, huh would I get engaged at
- 28:44Speaker 1: the end of this? And I was like what why
- 28:47Speaker 1: am I even thinking that? Like I don't ever want
- 28:49Speaker 1: to get married, And it was just something in me
- 28:51Speaker 1: really shifted, and from there I just kinda the momentum belt. Wow,
- 28:57Speaker 1: did you know she was feeling that way? Uh? I
- 29:00Speaker 1: didn't actually, but I will say for me Uh. In
- 29:03Speaker 1: the fantasy suite is when you kind of get a
- 29:06Speaker 1: little time to have no camera and obviously you want
- 29:10Speaker 1: to try to engauge, you want to kind of see
- 29:13Speaker 1: where the person that you're dating is at. That's when
- 29:15Speaker 1: you knew. And so well, then I started I started
- 29:19Speaker 1: talking about it. I started talking about it because there
- 29:22Speaker 1: was an instance during the Fantasy sweet date where I
- 29:26Speaker 1: couldn't breathe because I thought she was breaking up with me,
- 29:29Speaker 1: and um, but then it turned out to be that
- 29:31Speaker 1: wasn't the case because it wasn't listening. I was talking
- 29:37Speaker 1: about my last relationship and he's like, what, you're breaking
- 29:40Speaker 1: up with me? He was just so struck by your beauty.
- 29:42Speaker 1: I mean, you do have beautiful eyes and then that,
- 29:45Speaker 1: but that wasn't the case. It was just because I'm
- 29:47Speaker 1: not gonna lie. I was extremely nervous at the Fantasy Suite.
- 29:50Speaker 1: So but then that night I was asking questions and
- 29:53Speaker 1: she was like really starting to give me clarity that
- 29:57Speaker 1: maybe she would accept the engagement if it went down,
- 30:00Speaker 1: and UM, at that moment the next day, that's when
- 30:03Speaker 1: I knew. I was like, all right, for sure, I'm
- 30:04Speaker 1: going to do this. And Producer's demon bothered me, didn't
- 30:06Speaker 1: try to talk to me at all. They just they
- 30:09Speaker 1: knew what I wanted, and I was. I wanted to
- 30:11Speaker 1: be committed to her. So that's the way I went down.
- 30:14Speaker 1: I thought that on her first date. I guess that's
- 30:19Speaker 1: when you knew you loved me. No, you said on
- 30:22Speaker 1: her first date. When we were dancing on the water
- 30:24Speaker 1: and he looked in my eyes as I was dancing
- 30:27Speaker 1: with my dice and he said, I'm going to marry
- 30:30Speaker 1: this girl. I mean, yeah, that that's definitely that. That
- 30:34Speaker 1: also too, that's when I knew that for sure. I
- 30:36Speaker 1: was head over heels and madly in love with you,
- 30:39Speaker 1: Like that's I was. I looked in your eyes and
- 30:40Speaker 1: I was like, that's definitely the girl I want to
- 30:42Speaker 1: be with. You still needed it, I still need a
- 30:45Speaker 1: little clear Yeah. Leaning into Ashley and Jared, we were
- 30:47Speaker 1: there when they came down and got and when Jared proposed,
- 30:52Speaker 1: and that was actually a big moment for Chris and
- 30:54Speaker 1: ezed relationship. I don't think we ever told you guys.
- 30:56Speaker 1: This did not we did not go on. So you
- 30:59Speaker 1: guys came down and your proposal happened, and it Chris
- 31:04Speaker 1: and I ended up being like pulled and having to
- 31:07Speaker 1: have this serious conversation. Is that the night we won
- 31:10Speaker 1: the boom Boom Room. First, this is a PG podcast
- 31:16Speaker 1: that Boom Boom. That's a different story, um, but the
- 31:20Speaker 1: thing is may encourage you guys go to the boom
- 31:23Speaker 1: Boom room. Yeah. I don't know if that story made
- 31:25Speaker 1: a complete since now seeing you walk on the beach,
- 31:29Speaker 1: Jared encouraged him to go to the boom Boom room.
- 31:31Speaker 1: There was definitely inspirational. Know, there was a lot of
- 31:34Speaker 1: tension because I said no to the boom boom rounds
- 31:36Speaker 1: like it four or five times, and then you guys
- 31:39Speaker 1: came down and I was like, you know what, let's
- 31:41Speaker 1: go boom. So I would say that their relationship is
- 31:46Speaker 1: like the definition. Has anyone ever seen the Adjustment Bureau
- 31:49Speaker 1: with Matt Damon where it's like it's amazing and like,
- 31:52Speaker 1: if you think about your path, it's kind of like
- 31:55Speaker 1: the Adjustment Bureau where there was all these different roadblocks,
- 31:58Speaker 1: but somehow, somewhere you guys knew that you two were
- 32:01Speaker 1: supposed to be together, just didn't happen at that time,
- 32:03Speaker 1: and you guys finally became together and now you are.
- 32:07Speaker 1: So it was really inspiring to see and be there
- 32:09Speaker 1: for that moment. You were like the person that stood
- 32:12Speaker 1: out to me the most because we were pretty much
- 32:14Speaker 1: surrounded by like seventy percent people we had never met before,
- 32:17Speaker 1: and I don't think I met you, and you were
- 32:19Speaker 1: like glowing and you were so congratulatory, and it was
- 32:22Speaker 1: so nice to see somebody who genuinely seemed happy, not like,
- 32:27Speaker 1: oh what are they doing like barging in here or
- 32:29Speaker 1: like ruffling feathers a lot. You just see him like
- 32:32Speaker 1: you're happy for us. I was so happy and it
- 32:35Speaker 1: was so just you know, your love story of how
- 32:38Speaker 1: you guys have just come together. It's so it's like
- 32:41Speaker 1: what rom coms are made of? Right, perfect for the
- 32:45Speaker 1: two of them. Um, well, I want to ask now though,
- 32:49Speaker 1: because you've met, paradise is happen. It's happening again. Your
- 32:54Speaker 1: lives are speeding up, right, we're a year out. How
- 32:56Speaker 1: is wedding planning going for the two of you? Would say,
- 33:01Speaker 1: it's going, well, it's going the pace that it needs
- 33:04Speaker 1: to be. We just had like a really nice engagement party,
- 33:07Speaker 1: um to celebrate with our friends and family and people
- 33:09Speaker 1: that we wanted there. And Uh, now with the wedding
- 33:14Speaker 1: and the planning. It's it's it's going they're almost done. Yeah,
- 33:24Speaker 1: well we're keeping all the details private. But there have
- 33:28Speaker 1: been moments where, um, I would say, it really tests
- 33:32Speaker 1: your relationship and it really can bring you closer or
- 33:35Speaker 1: further apart. And it's brought us closer. And I think
- 33:38Speaker 1: the hardest thing for us was the guest list. Same here.
- 33:42Speaker 1: I don't love if you guys knew that that whole
- 33:45Speaker 1: that that's an issue. If for anyone who's gotten married
- 33:47Speaker 1: in here, first off, bless you, it's it's incredible, but
- 33:52Speaker 1: he has been married? Who okay? And what's the guest
- 33:55Speaker 1: at the top of the struggle bus. We have a
- 33:59Speaker 1: lot of hay that say it's not though, No, everybody's pretty.
- 34:03Speaker 1: A lot of people have been married. Not many people
- 34:04Speaker 1: are seeing at the top of the struggle bus, so okay.
- 34:08Speaker 1: I think a lot of people. A question that I
- 34:10Speaker 1: get when I do my questions on Instagram is like,
- 34:13Speaker 1: what have you guys fought over the most and planning?
- 34:15Speaker 1: We even fought at all over anything. It's been freakish
- 34:18Speaker 1: how much we have agreed on things. I would say
- 34:21Speaker 1: the guest list is complicated, not between us like my person,
- 34:25Speaker 1: you're a person. It's like truly who like we have
- 34:29Speaker 1: a limit, Like you guys have a limit to right,
- 34:32Speaker 1: because of any reasons, you have a limit. You have
- 34:34Speaker 1: a budget and so I mean like plates of food,
- 34:38Speaker 1: they're not cheap. I mean like and people got to eat,
- 34:41Speaker 1: so you got to feed these people. I mean, how
- 34:43Speaker 1: many are you gonna want to feed? And it's it's
- 34:45Speaker 1: really difficult to allocate a certain amount of invitations to
- 34:50Speaker 1: a certain amount of people, especially if there's people that
- 34:52Speaker 1: you know are probably gonna be heartbroken. It's the politics
- 34:54Speaker 1: because some people think other people should be there, but
- 34:57Speaker 1: you're like, but we haven't talked to them, and I've
- 35:00Speaker 1: seen years. And I also think it sucks because no
- 35:04Speaker 1: matter how much you talk about it, if anybody's been
- 35:08Speaker 1: married here, you know that in your wedding guest list,
- 35:10Speaker 1: there's like people that you're inviting and then people you're like, Okay,
- 35:14Speaker 1: well I don't know, we have to figure everything out
- 35:16Speaker 1: before we can awkward, but our wedding closed it a
- 35:19Speaker 1: plan B list. It's not a plan B list. It's
- 35:21Speaker 1: just okay, we have to figure out like who's coming,
- 35:23Speaker 1: who's not coming, And then there's all these hesitations about like,
- 35:26Speaker 1: well they might not be able to come, but there
- 35:28Speaker 1: may be coming. But then if you invite your uncle,
- 35:30Speaker 1: you have to invite your five cousins, and it's like
- 35:31Speaker 1: they all get plus ones and there's fifteen people gone.
- 35:34Speaker 1: It just like adds up so quickly. Pl I'd better
- 35:41Speaker 1: have been on the plan a list. I'll tell you
- 35:44Speaker 1: that right now. Hey, we've got to we've got to
- 35:48Speaker 1: keep going here. But before we go, a couple of
- 35:51Speaker 1: questions for the two of you going towards Ashley and Jared.
- 35:54Speaker 1: Two questions, okay, first one, what's your favorite thing about
- 35:59Speaker 1: them as a couple? You take the first one day.
- 36:02Speaker 1: I love how playful they are. I think you know
- 36:06Speaker 1: it keeps you young being playful and fills your heart
- 36:09Speaker 1: with joy and it's a fun energy that's convey more.
- 36:13Speaker 1: We do ask each other on a daily basis, are
- 36:16Speaker 1: you a baby? Don't don't ever say that again. I
- 36:23Speaker 1: don't think any of us know. We also ask our
- 36:27Speaker 1: dog we go are you Lois? Are you allowis? It's
- 36:30Speaker 1: you have to be there. Yeah, that's that's a good
- 36:34Speaker 1: that's good Ashley nice um. Next is, and I want
- 36:38Speaker 1: both of you to answer this next question, if you
- 36:40Speaker 1: were to sin as a couple, who's in love, who's
- 36:42Speaker 1: planning a wedding, who's forging forward in this relationship, if
- 36:47Speaker 1: you're to look at these two and give him the
- 36:49Speaker 1: best wishes possible for any couple really, but especially Ashley
- 36:52Speaker 1: and Jared tonight, what would you say? And I want
- 36:54Speaker 1: you both to answer this. I would say, make sure
- 36:58Speaker 1: you always kiss each other good night. Definitely something that
- 37:02Speaker 1: we never go to that angry, even when I fall
- 37:05Speaker 1: asleep on the couch and I come in two hours later,
- 37:07Speaker 1: I go, yes, she does. My advice for you too
- 37:14Speaker 1: as a can I'm sorry, like I have something nice
- 37:18Speaker 1: to say. Okay, I would say that, And I'm gonna
- 37:23Speaker 1: say what my grandpa told me. He goes, when two
- 37:25Speaker 1: people are in love, they're never going to be in
- 37:28Speaker 1: love with each other at the same time throughout marriage,
- 37:31Speaker 1: and one person might be a little bit lower than
- 37:35Speaker 1: the other, and it's that person that keeps that balance going.
- 37:38Speaker 1: So I always remember to balance each other out when
- 37:41Speaker 1: one of you is off. I love that. Look at that.
- 37:44Speaker 1: Thank you. Yeah, it was a very smart man. Hey,
- 37:48Speaker 1: thank you so much coming up here. We appreciate you.

- 41:13Speaker 1: I was like, what are we going to offer? We've
- 41:16Speaker 1: got some good questions for the two of you back
- 41:18Speaker 1: in Tan you're up on stage. But before we get
- 41:21Speaker 1: to talking to him and I know actually got an
- 41:23Speaker 1: important question to ask, Let's take a second talk about
- 41:26Speaker 1: cream barrel. Hey, Ash, you like taking a bath? Right? Oh?
- 41:31Speaker 1: I love best. I feel like you're a bath guy,
- 41:33Speaker 1: big bathroom? Are you big spot guy? Jared Will like
- 41:37Speaker 1: sometimes book hotel rooms solely because they have a nice bathroom.
- 41:41Speaker 1: There's nothing better than feeling hugged by water. Recently, we've
- 41:45Speaker 1: revamped our bathroom and like really made that whole bath experience,
- 41:49Speaker 1: bath and showering experience a little bit more luxurious because
- 41:53Speaker 1: we registered for some items on our Crate and Barrel
- 41:55Speaker 1: registry that have to do with our bathroom. Like they have,
- 41:59Speaker 1: they have a bunch of stuff get They actually have
- 42:01Speaker 1: like shocking products, things that I didn't think that crate
- 42:03Speaker 1: and barrel would carry, like shampoos, lotions and candles. That
- 42:08Speaker 1: really makes bathtimes so much fun. And afterwards, when you
- 42:14Speaker 1: get out of the bath at the shower and you
- 42:16Speaker 1: get to wrap yourself in this soft Turkish towel or robes,
- 42:20Speaker 1: and you get to put your little wet foot on
- 42:23Speaker 1: the softest back man you've ever felt. It really just
- 42:26Speaker 1: talks day far more enjoyable. It starts it out or
- 42:31Speaker 1: ends it. Like I shower at night, usually Jared shower
- 42:33Speaker 1: is more in the morning. It ends my day on
- 42:36Speaker 1: a point of relaxation, get a better sleep. But there's
- 42:40Speaker 1: just something nice about having a lovely bathroom, and we've
- 42:42Speaker 1: really started to be able to create that with the
- 42:45Speaker 1: with our Crate and Barrel registry in the items that
- 42:47Speaker 1: we've gotten so far from it highly suggests checking out
- 42:51Speaker 1: Crate and Barrel. If you're looking for a registry, you
- 42:53Speaker 1: can start your Crate and Barrel registry now at Crate

- 43:07Speaker 1: week has been a very Jonas heavy week in our lives.
- 43:09Speaker 1: I can't like really good um, but Jared is like
- 43:14Speaker 1: already having Jonas fatigue and the album doesn't even come
- 43:17Speaker 1: out until Friday. How do you suggest we get through
- 43:21Speaker 1: this rift? I'm gonna need Jared to get on board
- 43:26Speaker 1: because literally, did you see the documentary? Yeah, we're gonna
- 43:29Speaker 1: watch it tomorrow night with my mom. I don't know
- 43:31Speaker 1: how you watch that thing and don't become obsessed with them,
- 43:33Speaker 1: except mine is Nick. Like Nick, I'm kind of like
- 43:35Speaker 1: not here for anymore, but well Nick, he does sometimes
- 43:38Speaker 1: have a conceited air about him. Yeah, it's all Nick Jonas. Yeah,
- 43:42Speaker 1: let's be clear because that we have for sweet Yeah,
- 43:48Speaker 1: sweet man, Like, I'm just gonna really need you to
- 43:50Speaker 1: just get on board because it's only going to get
- 43:52Speaker 1: worse because they go on tour this summer, so there's
- 43:54Speaker 1: gonna be more Jonas and then the memoir comes out.
- 43:57Speaker 1: I'm debating not seeing Ashley until the wedding, not just
- 44:00Speaker 1: like let her have her Jonas summer and then we'll
- 44:02Speaker 1: get married and then Jonah Summer will be over and
- 44:04Speaker 1: then we're married. Well, the real, the real tour doesn't
- 44:07Speaker 1: start until like August, and I'm not going into a
- 44:10Speaker 1: date until after our wedding. And the hits just keep
- 44:14Speaker 1: on coming. I literally can't stop talking about the John's brothers,
- 44:17Speaker 1: like I cannot literally Today she's like, Wow, you're back
- 44:21Speaker 1: in the swing of things. Are you wait, You're gonna
- 44:23Speaker 1: die when I tell you this? So you know where
- 44:24Speaker 1: we were sitting for the premiere. My seat was actually
- 44:27Speaker 1: supposed to be in the I don't even know how.
- 44:29Speaker 1: This supposed to be the row with like Sophie and Prianka,
- 44:31Speaker 1: And I was like, how is I in that row?
- 44:33Speaker 1: They just really like you. There's no way I know
- 44:35Speaker 1: how you're in that that row because you've been crushing
- 44:39Speaker 1: it recently, just talking outside, You're everywhere. Your career is skyrocketed.
- 44:43Speaker 1: You're doing a great job. And that was the first
- 44:46Speaker 1: thing on the notes that I want to say is
- 44:47Speaker 1: Tanya is absolutely destroying the game, dominating. Very nice thing.
- 44:53Speaker 1: Your podcast together is also doing great this year in
- 44:57Speaker 1: two thousand. Wasn't two thousand nineteen that you won the
- 44:59Speaker 1: award eighteen time Flies and you're having fun? It was
- 45:04Speaker 1: within the last year. It's been in the last year,
- 45:07Speaker 1: scrubbing in with back in China one an award? This
- 45:11Speaker 1: what is the secret to making the same click with
- 45:14Speaker 1: two friends? I can't thank you seriously. This must so
- 45:18Speaker 1: sincere and I'm like scared, No, it's not. It's like
- 45:22Speaker 1: it's like, call me the mustache that I have right
- 45:25Speaker 1: now is call me, call me. Yeah, it makes you
- 45:30Speaker 1: feel like a daddy, like call me daddy, daddy. It's
- 45:40Speaker 1: I don't feel too calm right now. So, um, I
- 45:44Speaker 1: was gonna say, I have been surrounded by Jonas energy
- 45:47Speaker 1: for like a long time now, and let's go to
- 45:52Speaker 1: dinner this week time will get it all out. Yeah,
- 45:55Speaker 1: y'all should do that. Actually, So just bank got training
- 45:58Speaker 1: campus started and the Patriots starting to get back into it,
- 46:01Speaker 1: the Bruins on the Stanley Cup Finals, I have distractions?
- 46:05Speaker 1: Are you going to say that? I was just gonna
- 46:07Speaker 1: say it wo Tango, I was. I got to witness
- 46:10Speaker 1: I'm always around Tommya's energy for the Jonas brothers, and
- 46:12Speaker 1: I really got to a front row seat to Ashley,
- 46:15Speaker 1: Lauren and Lizzie's love for the Jonas brothers. And they
- 46:19Speaker 1: were all singing to each other. And I've never seen
- 46:21Speaker 1: a look of boredom like I did on Jared say
- 46:24Speaker 1: it wasn't. I was having a boredom, just like not
- 46:28Speaker 1: as interested, and He's like, this is what gets them
- 46:32Speaker 1: all riled up? Yeah, it was. Honestly, I was having fun.
- 46:36Speaker 1: I was standing there, I was smiling, sucker, came on.
- 46:39Speaker 1: I know that song. I had a good time during
- 46:41Speaker 1: that song. But these girls are freaking out, So if
- 46:44Speaker 1: you're not flipping out with them, then you're obviously bored.
- 46:48Speaker 1: But I think it sounds like Jereed Guard. I think
- 46:50Speaker 1: it's so cute though, and I like love how they
- 46:53Speaker 1: have their that one night show in l A and
- 46:55Speaker 1: like you just you guys went like just girls and
- 46:57Speaker 1: Jared like picked you up. It was like, so if
- 46:59Speaker 1: you got McDonald's after, that's what I need in my life.
- 47:03Speaker 1: While blasting jonas it was. It was a low point.
- 47:08Speaker 1: One of the most interesting things I think is the
- 47:11Speaker 1: perspective from somebody who is not in a committed relationship
- 47:14Speaker 1: talking to people that are. Tanya, you know you've met
- 47:17Speaker 1: Ashley in studio a few times. You know this couple, Well,
- 47:20Speaker 1: what is your advice for them as a company? A
- 47:22Speaker 1: few times in the studio. She's a funny tour wedding too,
- 47:25Speaker 1: you know. Perfect. The thing I love about Ashley and
- 47:30Speaker 1: I love you too, Jared, but like Ashley just likeally
- 47:34Speaker 1: leaned over and goes. I really like Jared. Do you
- 47:37Speaker 1: know how many times I've gotten in my life Ashley?
- 47:40Speaker 1: I freaking love you. You're great to Jared, but actually
- 47:44Speaker 1: I'm like cool actually before and like you're like a
- 47:48Speaker 1: bleeding heart like me, do you know what I mean? Like,
- 47:49Speaker 1: and so when you when this happened for you, like
- 47:52Speaker 1: I genuinely like it's really and I mean it from
- 47:55Speaker 1: the bottom of my heart, like I'm so happy for
- 47:58Speaker 1: you because it's it's like it's something that like I
- 48:02Speaker 1: don't know, we've we've like shared that's like the dream,
- 48:05Speaker 1: you know, so like I'm really really happy for you. Well,
- 48:08Speaker 1: thank you. I mean, I know we haven't done it
- 48:09Speaker 1: in a while, but those little like Thursday night hangs
- 48:12Speaker 1: that we had a couple of times where I was like, Batonia,
- 48:15Speaker 1: I'm so confused. I have no idea how I'm going
- 48:17Speaker 1: to handle the situation. Can remember it? I remember it
- 48:20Speaker 1: so clearly before or after, like Jared had voiced his
- 48:24Speaker 1: after he had voiced it. What were what were those
- 48:27Speaker 1: conversations life amongst you? You all? Well, I would always
- 48:30Speaker 1: tell Ashley when we talk about Jared, and this is
- 48:32Speaker 1: before he even admit his feelings, and he send her
- 48:34Speaker 1: flowers or something, and I was like, what is he doing?
- 48:39Speaker 1: He likes you? No one since flowers or doesn't like
- 48:42Speaker 1: the other person. This is not a friendly gesture. And
- 48:44Speaker 1: I can co sign on that I do the same thing.
- 48:46Speaker 1: What's happening. I'm a poor excuse of a man, like
- 48:49Speaker 1: I don't know, I've never said anything otherwise, Like no,
- 48:54Speaker 1: it wasn't that though. I just remember thinking I didn't
- 48:57Speaker 1: want her to wait for something that might not happen.
- 49:00Speaker 1: And I also just wanted to be like, don't give
- 49:02Speaker 1: up because he's sending you flowers for some reason, like
- 49:04Speaker 1: there's a reason for that. Um. And I remember that
- 49:07Speaker 1: night that we were you came over and we were
- 49:10Speaker 1: watching Grace and you told us about him saying his
- 49:13Speaker 1: feelings for you, and it was like I remember texting
- 49:16Speaker 1: you like throughout the time, I'd be like, has he
- 49:19Speaker 1: done anything today? Has he said anything? Letter said text?
- 49:23Speaker 1: I think the thing that's so beautiful is like it
- 49:26Speaker 1: takes a lot for somebody to be vulnerable, Like that's
- 49:29Speaker 1: like really how you find love is true vulnerability, and
- 49:32Speaker 1: that's like what you you have, you embody that so well,
- 49:35Speaker 1: you know, and I think you can always put up
- 49:37Speaker 1: a like you can always put up a wall, and
- 49:40Speaker 1: everybody has that, you know what I mean? Like that
- 49:42Speaker 1: kind of to protect them, and you've always just been
- 49:45Speaker 1: so open, and I think that's ultimately like what led
- 49:48Speaker 1: you to each other. Yeah, I agree. I think Ashley
- 49:50Speaker 1: is one of the most vulnerable people I've ever met,
- 49:52Speaker 1: and you're just very open with your emotions and feelings.
- 49:55Speaker 1: And I think while we're so similar in so many
- 49:57Speaker 1: different ways, that's one area where we're different, because I
- 49:59Speaker 1: think I'm someone who tries to project an image into
- 50:04Speaker 1: the world of like who I'm supposed to be, and
- 50:07Speaker 1: I think I've always struggled Superman complex. It's not a
- 50:10Speaker 1: Superman complex. I think it's just a human complex where
- 50:12Speaker 1: a lot of people want to be seen into the world.
- 50:15Speaker 1: Is confident and funny, and it has everything put together
- 50:18Speaker 1: and they're not a mess and they they you know,
- 50:21Speaker 1: they're like, you know, I I have things to offer,
- 50:24Speaker 1: and uh. And I think it's far better just to
- 50:28Speaker 1: be open with your flaws and and and and accept
- 50:31Speaker 1: the fact that you know you're not perfect and and
- 50:35Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to realize that somebody is just
- 50:37Speaker 1: gonna love you for your imperfections. Um. Because Yeah, I
- 50:41Speaker 1: think that was the biggest hurdle that we had to overcome. Yeah,
- 50:45Speaker 1: Jared was afraid of showing he's imperfections, and I was, like,
- 50:50Speaker 1: you think that that's going to change anything, that's a
- 50:54Speaker 1: big statement. Let's not just glance over that, Like I'm
- 50:56Speaker 1: actually interested in hearing your perspective on it. Only thing
- 51:00Speaker 1: that it's changed is like I thought that Jared would
- 51:02Speaker 1: be like so easy going and laid back, but he's
- 51:04Speaker 1: not as laid back as he seems like he I know,
- 51:07Speaker 1: it's so weird, but he like he is like he's moody,
- 51:11Speaker 1: and I never really knew him. I knew him as
- 51:13Speaker 1: like moody in the way he'd like get quiet sometimes,
- 51:16Speaker 1: like sometimes I wouldn't be able to read him, but
- 51:18Speaker 1: like not to the extent that I know now, And
- 51:21Speaker 1: now I just um need to be more conscious about
- 51:25Speaker 1: like how too, Like I'm always like conscious about making
- 51:29Speaker 1: him as happy as possible. And like everybody asked me,
- 51:31Speaker 1: like why didn't happen earlier? Like why didn't it happen earlier?
- 51:34Speaker 1: And it's like you have someone that I was. We
- 51:37Speaker 1: were really close friends, and you just had an idea
- 51:39Speaker 1: of who I was as a man, and it was like, Ashley,
- 51:42Speaker 1: I'm not that guy. And if I let you in
- 51:44Speaker 1: you're going to realize that pretty quickly. And I think
- 51:47Speaker 1: there's been moments in our relationship where you've you've you've
- 51:51Speaker 1: kind of seen like different sides of me where I
- 51:53Speaker 1: can get quiet and I can really just need to,
- 51:55Speaker 1: like I need to be by myself for a while.
- 51:58Speaker 1: What's your zodiac signs? Just Corpio to a definition, and
- 52:01Speaker 1: what's your side Pisces, so like if we want to
- 52:04Speaker 1: get into the whole astrology of at all, Like we're
- 52:07Speaker 1: both pretty much equally emotional, but I am very open
- 52:10Speaker 1: and expressive about it. And Scorpio, you guys hide it
- 52:13Speaker 1: done your love language tests. We haven't done that test
- 52:17Speaker 1: or the personality test that everybody wants. Literally, if you
- 52:20Speaker 1: do the love language test, I swear, and I'm not married,
- 52:23Speaker 1: but it'll make your I know what I am like
- 52:27Speaker 1: your marriage. All my married friends about it, and they're like, Tanya,
- 52:31Speaker 1: you're like like marriage, whisper. Like the love language test
- 52:34Speaker 1: literally will bring you close. I swear, is this different
- 52:37Speaker 1: than just knowing what? Ye? It's fifteen minutes. I promise,
- 52:43Speaker 1: please do it for me, all right, so you'll send it.
- 52:45Speaker 1: You could tell me that I'm may be different than
- 52:48Speaker 1: touch and words of affirmation. Yes, and so you have
- 52:50Speaker 1: to give Jared love the way he received it. And
- 52:52Speaker 1: then can I interject them for a second, But like,
- 52:57Speaker 1: I'm interested, because do you really need an online us
- 53:00Speaker 1: to tell you that? Or is it more so reading
- 53:02Speaker 1: Ashley and then being around her all the time and
- 53:05Speaker 1: realizing what she needs and what she doesn't need. So
- 53:08Speaker 1: you might think that you know, but you don't. You
- 53:11Speaker 1: need the test, you know, but you don't know. You
- 53:16Speaker 1: don't know the documentary. Take the test and then the
- 53:19Speaker 1: thing is the biggest mistake that we make is we
- 53:22Speaker 1: give love. Beck and I have to do this all
- 53:24Speaker 1: the time. We do we do? You have to do
- 53:26Speaker 1: it as a friendship. Yeah, literally every relationship in my life.
- 53:30Speaker 1: I make every person that's like in my circle take
- 53:33Speaker 1: it because it affects every relationship. So like the way
- 53:37Speaker 1: that you receive love is the way that you give love,
- 53:40Speaker 1: but that might not be the way that they receive love.
- 53:43Speaker 1: So like me, I like quality time that doesn't need
- 53:50Speaker 1: you don't need it. She knows when I need it
- 53:53Speaker 1: that she she'll give it to me because she's like,
- 53:54Speaker 1: I know, you like breadcrumbs here and there, sprinkling around,
- 54:01Speaker 1: but it's true, I swear like, just do it, please,
- 54:05Speaker 1: just do it. Do it out of curiosity. I think
- 54:07Speaker 1: it's fun just to do it. Like, it's not like
- 54:09Speaker 1: it's gonna save your marriage if you're I don't think
- 54:11Speaker 1: it's like the single non married marriage was. It's either
- 54:16Speaker 1: this quiz or it's over. So that I mean that
- 54:19Speaker 1: ties me into my next question. Then the two of
- 54:22Speaker 1: you individually, because I think you both have perspective. I
- 54:25Speaker 1: want to hear from. What is your advice to Jared Nashley? Becca,
- 54:29Speaker 1: you start, don't look at me if you're gonna laugh
- 54:31Speaker 1: every time, Becca, it's comforting. You should look at me
- 54:35Speaker 1: and just feel at home. Becca, though, what is your
- 54:37Speaker 1: advice for these two? Um? I would say, I think
- 54:42Speaker 1: that y'all do such a great well. I first of all,
- 54:45Speaker 1: I love your love for um things that you're passionate about,
- 54:51Speaker 1: Like you're so passionate about the Patriots, and you're so
- 54:54Speaker 1: passionate about Jonas brothers, and you both like really respect
- 54:57Speaker 1: and like get passionate with that person even though you
- 55:00Speaker 1: of like zero interests in either. You know, like all
- 55:02Speaker 1: of a sudden a big Giants fan that Actley is
- 55:05Speaker 1: supports Tom Brady and Giselle and how can you not
- 55:09Speaker 1: support Tom and Giselle, that's my question. But she's really like,
- 55:13Speaker 1: you'll both have really stepped into that role and you're
- 55:15Speaker 1: both fangirl about things, which is I know it's like
- 55:18Speaker 1: we joke about it, but it's actually a really if
- 55:21Speaker 1: there was a love language for fangirling, all three of
- 55:24Speaker 1: you would have it. Wait. That is actually one of
- 55:26Speaker 1: the first things that drew me to Jared was that
- 55:29Speaker 1: he like obviously had this He's like very pop culture educated,
- 55:34Speaker 1: which was attractive to me, but the one that he
- 55:37Speaker 1: was able to like put out trivia you get it,
- 55:44Speaker 1: it made me feel like because the way he talked
- 55:46Speaker 1: about movies and stuff made me feel like, this guy
- 55:49Speaker 1: gets my culture. Yeah, I guess my advice would be
- 55:56Speaker 1: to like keep being there for each other and like
- 55:58Speaker 1: things that you care about, because I think that's a
- 56:00Speaker 1: big part of what makes you all so special. And
- 56:02Speaker 1: like it's really fun to watch because even though I
- 56:06Speaker 1: knew that you did not know every lyric to every
- 56:08Speaker 1: Jonas brother song, like you were down there just like
- 56:11Speaker 1: loving watching her be excited, you know, and same when
- 56:14Speaker 1: it comes to his sports that you like and Rob
- 56:17Speaker 1: Thomas like I'm I like his Instagram, so yeah, you like, yeah,
- 56:21Speaker 1: that's dedication. You like his instagram, so I feel very
- 56:24Speaker 1: attuched to him and his wife. Weirdly, people, what do
- 56:28Speaker 1: you think? What's your advice as the wedding whisperer, the
- 56:31Speaker 1: un married wedding whisper marriage whisper. I talked to my
- 56:35Speaker 1: future husband. It's fine. She brings him and she's bringing
- 56:43Speaker 1: him in. I'm bringing him in write to him and
- 56:46Speaker 1: Stuff's the question mark right now, but that makes sense.
- 56:49Speaker 1: But what is your advice the two of them? Um?
- 56:53Speaker 1: I like, I think that you guys just like respect
- 56:58Speaker 1: each other so much, and I think there's something so
- 57:01Speaker 1: beautiful about like your team to me, and that's so special,
- 57:06Speaker 1: you know, to like go through life with somebody that
- 57:08Speaker 1: always has your back, and like, I just genuinely feel
- 57:10Speaker 1: like you guys are like ying and yang, you know,
- 57:12Speaker 1: like I saw you guys when you were in Nava
- 57:14Speaker 1: and Ashley was like, you give me, Like I just
- 57:16Speaker 1: like little things like that, do you know what I mean?
- 57:17Speaker 1: I just feel like your your team, your unit, and
- 57:20Speaker 1: you make each other better and just keep being that way,
- 57:23Speaker 1: you know, like when somebody's down with the other up
- 57:26Speaker 1: and vice versa, because life is peaks and valleys and
- 57:30Speaker 1: you guys do such a great job. Like I really
- 57:32Speaker 1: genuinely like I've been growing my love for Jared, like
- 57:37Speaker 1: over the past year, and you really know, seriously, as
- 57:40Speaker 1: I've gotten to know you, I'm like, I'm really I'm
- 57:42Speaker 1: so happy for Ashley that she like has you to
- 57:45Speaker 1: do life with. She's basically saying, at some point, if
- 57:49Speaker 1: you all want to in turn to a throuble she
- 57:51Speaker 1: is Jared, Yeah, like if you have brothers or cousins,
- 57:57Speaker 1: like you have your brothers, it's too bad and actually
- 58:00Speaker 1: has met my cousins, you either want to. I'm actually
- 58:03Speaker 1: trying to date Kevin Jonas introduced me to his brother
- 58:06Speaker 1: in law and yeah, that's funny. Been there, done, not
- 58:09Speaker 1: done that. That wasn't the one, the one for a second?
- 58:16Speaker 1: What the hell is that? This is good? This is
- 58:19Speaker 1: when things get good. Let's sit in it. Yeah, let's
- 58:21Speaker 1: talk about it. Wait, he's so cute. Yeah, he's really
- 58:24Speaker 1: cute now. He was cute then too, But I was like,
- 58:27Speaker 1: very like, I can't date Mike. If I'm gonna date
- 58:30Speaker 1: Joe one day, it's not a good situation. Like you
- 58:35Speaker 1: gotta meet Danielle's brother. This is apparently his move. The

- 59:22Speaker 1: It's actually more important than ever, and my morning routine
- 59:26Speaker 1: has been enhanced by some of the gifts that Jared

- 59:31Speaker 1: Crate and Barrel. These gifts have been coming in far
- 59:34Speaker 1: before our bridle shower and our wedding, and it's been awesome.
- 59:39Speaker 1: I've gotten the best like fluffy, soft Turkish towels, robes,

- 59:48Speaker 1: so much more enjoyable. You wouldn't even know. I didn't

- 59:54Speaker 1: wide assortment of SPA products like shampoos, lotions, and can les.
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: So I'll lie in our bath, I'll light some candles.

- 1:00:06Speaker 1: all worked up over there. He loves a good bath,
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: like that man loves a bath and like he thinks,

- 1:01:43Speaker 1: Jared stayed at my place. Oh here we come? For
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: how long? Longer than he said? Okay? I wanted him
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: to keep staying what you wanted him to be staying
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: with you? That I am his company, I'm answering Ben's questions. Honestly, honestly,
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: it's Jared stayed in my place and he stayed sure
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: than I expected. Oh, but I have a good question.
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: I have to say this. Okay, So Jared was living
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: with Nick when we first started like like like upping
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: our relationship, and we didn't tell a lot of people
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: for a while, and Nick like it kind of went
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: over his head. And I was like, does Nick know
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: like where you're going all the time? And I don't know.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: Did you know? Uh? None at first? No, When did
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: you find out that Ashley and Jared were sneaking around
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: behind your back? Well? I first noticed Jared being weird
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: when we were going to grab coffee or something, and
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: I was commenting on Kevin and Ashley's relationship on Instagram.
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: At this point, Jared and Ashley are friends. Wasn't that
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: I didn't want to tell Nick. It was just at
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: a point were when she was telling you about Jared's
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: emotional and temperamental No, clarify it doesn't. I don't want
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: to think that I wasn't telling Nick on purpose. Asked
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: the question, you want me to answer the question? I
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: want to want to preface like it wasn't because I
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: didn't want to tell you. It was more so it
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: was just like such a I didn't know where it
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: was going. It was really emotional. So that's why I
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: kind of kept it close to the chest, as you should.
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: That's fine, I don't have to know everything. The next question,
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: that is, I didn't he didn't answer. I mean, I
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: think it's when he started feeling weird in the car
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: and he noticed something was up. No, he has keeps
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: going no, no, no no, no go. I want to hear
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: the story. We were giving coffee and I was commenting
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: on Ashley and Kevin's social media activity. I don't remember
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: what I said, but I do remember Jared's reaction, and
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: it was out of nowhere, just like, well, I want
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: to talk about it, Okay, Like I don't know why
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: you're so committed to like Instagram content, but fine. And
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: then a couple of weeks later, we all went to
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: Ashley's thirtieth birthday party and I kind of noticed they
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: were like holding hands on at the table. Uh. And
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: Jared's living with me at this point, and uh, And
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: so I went to drop off Ashley and and I
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: looked at Jared and I just said, so, you're gonna
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: stay at Ashley this tonight. And he's like yeah, and
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, we'll have fun. And that was
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: that was pretty much it never forget a couple of
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: days later, we were sitting in the kitchen and we
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: were talking, you know, football and blah blah blah, and
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: then you just you you sat in the chair. I'll
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: never forget, and you were like, so, what's going on
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: with Ashley? Let me clarify he did not sleep over that.
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: I made it slay later and then uh, it was
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: just and then you and I I was like, all right,
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: here we go. And then we talked to him a
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: couple of hours about everything that happened, and uh, and
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: I'll I just I remember I didn't know how you
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: were going to react to it. Uh, that was great, No,
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: but I but I was always about goddamn time I had.
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: I was always nervous that you were going to react
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: in some way of saying that I was I was
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: only jealous and that you know, if she wasn't with Kevin,
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: that you wouldn't have cared. And but and and then
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: I just remember the first thing you said after I
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: kind of like just like open up and said anything
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: and you were like, uh, you said, I'm really happy
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: for you. No, there's another moment I have to reminisce on.
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: It was a year before Jared came out about his feeling.
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: It's like an entire year. And we were at the
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: I heard jingle Ball and we were there with a
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: whole bunch of bachelor alone and Nick camp to us,
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: he goes, I don't know about you two, Like there's
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: I know, there's nothing going on, but like you're probably
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: gonna get married one day. Yeah, it made sense. Yeah,
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: you guys. They were way too emotionally attached to each
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: other not to end up to each other. It was
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: a you're gonna have a best friend with the opposite sex.
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: But they were just like christ Um. That's why I
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: said I was happy with Jared because it was it
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: was like I didn't really understand what his deal was,
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: Like I don't know, why do you put this much
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: effort into someone you're not gonna have sex with. It
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: was always a question I'm not I did I agree
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: with you? It was always the confusing thing for me.
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: It was a watching friends. It was like you're going
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: over there, You're staying on her couch, like you're emostally
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: invested in this like relationship, caring about everything She's said,
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: there's nothing happening. It doesn't make any sense to me,
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: like the haircut. Hey, kinda before we move over here,
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: because we've got a lot to talk about. Nick, I
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: have a couple more questions for you. The first one, Uh,
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: there's an email that we got from one of our
- 1:06:39Speaker 1: listeners that said, there's a rumor going around that you've
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: made a marriage pack with one of the Ferguson twins.
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: Is that true or false? That if you're if she's
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: single at a certain age, or you're single a certain age,
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: you're just gonna get married and do this thing. It's false,
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: it's false. But I'm down. You know. You know I'm
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: not against either. I think you're both great. Um. Also, Nick,
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: you're up to a lot right now. I want to
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: give you the opportunity to talk about some of your
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: projects going on. Uh. You have a podcast yourself that
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: is doing really well. Uh can you tell our listeners

- 1:10:17Speaker 1: bachelor in Paradise relationship. Give it off for Kindle and Joe.
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: Joe Coulna be with us tonight. Um. Joe is probably
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: off traveling somewhere right he's on tour right now. He's
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: um is he hosting it? Um? So it's kind of
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: like there's a main host and he's sort of like
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: a co host slash celebrity for like one of the teams. Okay,
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: so he's playing the game. You know what's so crazy
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: about your love story? Kindle is and I want to
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: start here. We've got to watch you and this is
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: prepping for this podcast. This is something that always amazing you.
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: Guys kind of came in. You were hesitant. There was
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: like love and then there's distance on paradise and there's
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: love and there's distance. What was the moment when you
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: looked at Joe and said, I want this thing to
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: be I want to leave this thing with you. Yeah,
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: it was crazy because I think I allowed fear to
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: get in the way a lot while we were on
- 1:11:11Speaker 1: paradise because there was always the thought of of we'd
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: be long distance, and I've never done a long distance
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: relationship before, let alone have a really really serious relationship before.
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: So I was thinking, with all of this in this
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: crazy world, how can this ever work? Um? And I
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: think I think the moment I realized it was when
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: we were on the beach as I was breaking up
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: with him. I think it was the moment where um,
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: I saw that he wasn't like fighting for it, and
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: I was like I expected him to fight, and um,
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: the fact that he wasn't doing Yeah, but the fact
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: that he wasn't doing No. Kendall and Jared, you're either
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: the same scenario, hard to get until you play too
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: hard to get and then you lose the person, and
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: then you realize I could actually potentially lose something that
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: really means a lot to me and we I would
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: just see it as something that was really fun and
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: we'd laugh together, we'd be best friends, you know, on
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: the show, because we hang out. You hang out so
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: much together. And then it was in that moment where
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: I was thinking, oh, well, I'm not gonna be seeing
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: this person every day anymore, and I'm not gonna be
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: able to like talk to this person every day and um, yeah,
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: I don't know. And it was funny because as soon
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: as we got to the hotel's right after we had
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: broken up, there's they asked me where do you want
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: your ticket to go? And I was like Chicago. I
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: was like, oh's stupid at on my phone. He doesn't
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: have my number, blah blah. I tried to sneak him
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: a secret note to you know, gave him my room number. Um.
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: That note was not delivered. Um. But yeah, so I
- 1:12:48Speaker 1: guess I just decided to start fighting for it after
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: I had already let it go. Yeah. The thing I
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: another part and I talked about earlier, is I haven't
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: ever been to Paradise, so I don't know exactly that works.
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: But I think each of the couples here could probably
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: answer this, but specifically I want you to when does
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: that relationship leaving Paradise actually start to feel real? Then?
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: Because we watched you his viewers kind of blossom post show,
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: both of your lives kind of took off and your
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: relationship took off, and it was in the public eye.
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: But at the same time, there was always this sense
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: in my mind that there's an amazing relationship forming as well.
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: How does that happen? When does that happen? And when
- 1:13:25Speaker 1: did start feeling that real for you and Joe? Um.
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: I think it started feeling really real after he got
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: Dancing with the Stars and we were able to actually
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: pretty much live together for three months because he had
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: a place out in l A and I was living
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: in l A. So, um, we got to kind of
- 1:13:42Speaker 1: playhouse for a bit, I guess you can say, Um,
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: and I had the foster dog that I was taking
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: care of what the broken hip, and then he was
- 1:13:49Speaker 1: going off to work and dancing every day, so it
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: kind of felt like a little family, and UM, seeing
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: that was something that really and that's how easy it was,
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: was something that really, Um, it made me excited about
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: where it can go. And then so now he's officially
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: living in l A and we're plan house for real.
- 1:14:07Speaker 1: So it's it's been fun to see where it's gone.
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: And you know, I haven't gotten tired of him yet.
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: You know, he surprises me every day and I think
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: we challenge each other every day and we learned from
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: each other every day, which is it's been exciting. Do
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: you mind telling us as much as you want on
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: where do you see this going now? Well, Um, I
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: think the thing is, I don't think either of us
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: would be together if we didn't see like the long run,
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: you know, down the line, marriage and everything. Um, but
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: I think this whole entire thing has been such a
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: whirlwind and there's so much going on that it's really
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: difficult to it's difficult to just to stop and to
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: let everything else that's happening just kind of fade away
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: and to just see each other. And I think we're
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: taking this year living with each other to realize, like
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: we actually have to see each other in our relationship
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: for what it is beside all of the craziness. So
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: I think living together there has been something that's really
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: taken away all of the I don't know, all the
- 1:15:05Speaker 1: crazy things that come along with having the experience like
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: this and to really see each other for the real
- 1:15:09Speaker 1: relationship that it can be. Yeah, well, we wish you
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: the best, Um, to switch gears to you for a second,
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: and then we need to go back to Ashley and Jared,
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: because I know you both have advice for them and
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear it. Because of what's consuming
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: most of your time these days, Um, I do have
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: a project that I'm working on that I'm really excited about.
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: Tell us about I can't say that yet. Well, then
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: don't tell us about it. Just let us know. We're
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: supposed to promote it for you on Instagram. Yea, Um,
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: but yeah, I know there's definitely a couple projects I'm
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: really excited about. I'm also, um, when will we hear
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: about it? Um? Gosh, probably with the next week or so. Okay, cool, awesome,
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: so soon? I mean you sure you don't want to
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: talk about it here? We probably are going to save this.
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: I'll secretly talk about it. You come back to the
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: auction in this podcast before you go to the biof oil. Yes, yeah, yeah,
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: no more guests going over there first. Um. Hey, we
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: we've asked this question all night. Uh, Nick, I'm gonna
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: start with you. What is your advice for Ashley and Jared?
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: What kind of advice do you want? You want like
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: the platitudes, or do you want, like, I know, Jared
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: and Ashley relationship advice. Jared's such a scaredy cat choose
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: day are not truth? I'm a truth guy. I like
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: truth to uh. Knowing Ashley and Jared, I would I
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: would if if if I were to give Ashley advice
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: to Jared, it's Ashley is a very motivated and very
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: driven person who can um you sometimes get carried away
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: sometimes but sometimes in a good way. And I think
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: it's important for Ashley to um remember that Jared has
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: a voice, which I think you guys do a good
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: job of. But I think in times UM it's important
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: when she's really focused on something to just maybe take
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: a step back. I think also subsequently, I think it's
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: important for Jared to remember that just saying it's fine
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: and being a nice guy is sometimes going to catch
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: up to him and be his fault because if he's
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: not going to share his voice, he's not going to
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: be heard. And that would be my advice to you guys.
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: I told you guys, he's just really good at this. Yeah.
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: And about two minutes he summed up like our relationship
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: therapy that we had on another I Horror podcast wind Down,
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: it's um Kindle Nick Instagram dot Com, New Customers, my drop.
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: I would say my advice is um to know that
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: who you are as people, as madeable and not in
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: the sense that you're not who the person that you're
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: with is not the person you are married the sense
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: that you. I think people tend to think that the
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: person that they're worth is always going to be the
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: person that they met or the person that they're with
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: now or that they get married to. UM, always be
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: curious about each other and always take time to get
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: to know who the new person is because I can
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: talk about myself because I'm not the same person I
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: was yet yesterday, let alone like a year ago. And UM,
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: so I just always have curiosity with each other. That's
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: really good advice. It's also something I've read in Cosmo.
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: Oh they copied me the final question, Um, for both
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: of you, what is your favorite thing about Ashley and
- 1:18:30Speaker 1: Jared God Um, I would say that neither of you
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: gave up. I mean, despite everything that happened and everything
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: you guys have both been through, Um, you never gave up.
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: And I think that says a lot about your relationship
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: and where it's going to be. M They're they're annoyably cute.
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: They are. I mean, it's it's annoying, don't get me wrong,
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: but they are very cute together. They really are. Thank you, Nick, Um.
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: It's amazing how much you guys are a good match.
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: I said, you guys should work on perfect. You're right,
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: that is our biggest difference. Nick and Kendall, thank you
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: for coming up, thank you for talking. Wish you the
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: best and Kendall will be listening for your big project
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: announcement within the next let's say, two weeks, just so
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: we're not sitting on there. Yeah, just just in case. Hey, uh,
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: we're gonna end the night with a little game. It's
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: gonna be a blast. Give us a second, because first
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: we've got to talk about Crate and Barrel. Hey, yes,
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: you like taking a bath? Right? Oh? I love best.
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: I feel like you're a bath guy, Big Bathroup, Big
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: spot guys. Jared will like sometimes book hotel rooms solely
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: because they have a nice bathroom. There's nothing better than
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: feeling hugged by water. Recently, we've re revamped our bathroom
- 1:19:53Speaker 1: and like really made that whole bath experience, bath and
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: showering experience a little bit more luxurious because we registered
- 1:20:00Speaker 1: some items on our Crate and Barrel registry that have
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: to do with our bathroom. Like, they have a bunch
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: of stuff. They actually have like shocking products, things that
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: I didn't think that Crate and Barrel would carry like shampoos,
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: lotions and candles. That really makes bathtimes so much fun.
- 1:20:18Speaker 1: And afterwards when you get out of the bath of
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: the shower and you get to wrap yourself in this
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: soft Turkish towel or robes and you get to put
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: your little wet foot on the softest bath man you've
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: ever felt. It really just talks a day far more enjoyable.
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: It starts it out or ends it. Like I shower
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: at night, usually Jerry shower is more in the morning.
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: It ends my day on a point of relaxation, get
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: a better sleep. But there's just something nice about having
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: a lovely bathroom and we've really started to be able
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: to create that with the with our Crate and Barrel
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: registry in the items that we've gotten so far from
- 1:20:54Speaker 1: it highly suggests checking out Crate and Barrel if you're
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: looking for a registry you can start. You're a Crate
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: and Barrel registry now at Crate and Barrel dot com
- 1:21:03Speaker 1: slash Wedding Dash Registry. Again, if you're an engaged couple
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: out there, please check out Crate and Barrel dot com
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: slash Wedding Dash Registry. Okay, so here's how the game's
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: gonna work. We're giving Ashley and Jared a groom cowboy
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: hat and a Pride white hat. Two. If you need
- 1:21:22Speaker 1: to sit back to back, you cannot see each other. Please,
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: you dropped my cowboy hat. Please sit back to back.
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: So they're sitting back to back right now. For everybody
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: out there listening. We're gonna ask him a few questions
- 1:21:34Speaker 1: and they're gonna raise which one. Listen, this is how
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: the game works. Ash Um. She's over there saying that, says,
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: well it does for a reason. No, no, no, you
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: need to have to say I don't need two cowboy hats. Um.
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: So I'm gonna ask a question and they're gonna raise
- 1:21:48Speaker 1: the hat that they think it relates to the most. Okay, So,
- 1:21:54Speaker 1: for example, the two of you can't be looking at
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: each other. Jared, please look towards the wall. Sorry, lift
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: up the hat of the messiest person in your relationship.
- 1:22:04Speaker 1: They both said, bride. Yeah, good job, Ashley, She's not.
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: I do like. I like how Jared filled that in there.
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: It's like, but just in case, baby, you know, he
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: cleans up throughout the day. I clean up like at
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: the end of the day when there's nothing else. Lauren
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: do you agree when there is nothing else? Okay, um,
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: who spends more money? Oh there's pause Ashley with the
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: when Lauren, do you agree they don't spend much money?
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: The only difference is she buys beauty products. I buy
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: uh Dove I've talked about in the podcast beat by
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: Dove Soap. Yeah, my dove is two nine and nine.
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: Her lover is a little bit more expensive you would
- 1:22:50Speaker 1: actually be. I mean, I think that is a little
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: shocking to people that actually is not a big spender
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: except on beauty products, which the very first time I
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: ever met Ashley, it's still to this day my first
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: impression of her, and I've gotten to know her so
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: much better since then. But she rolls in with us.
- 1:23:04Speaker 1: Something she still has his day is just like chest
- 1:23:07Speaker 1: full of makeup, Like it's a massive chest with lights
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: and it looks like it costs two thars it was
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: to fifty. Oh well it's still expensive, a lot more
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: expensive than dub so So Ashley, you went with that one.
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: Who is the better driver? Jared Wins on the driving
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: I have driven with Ashley a couple of times. Scary experience.
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: It's all right, I mean from the moment that I
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: first was in a car that Jared drove. I was like, Wow,
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: this guy drives like my dad. That's a good sign.
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: And that was like a turn on for her. It's
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: kind of weird. My dad is a very safe driver.
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: My mom's a better driver, though, I'll tell you that
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: my mom is a better driver my dad. Ashley's mom's
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: in the audience tonight, looking beautiful, smiling big, and we're
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: super thankful to be here. So this is a question
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: I think that we were all very proud about overdight heart.
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: Who is the biggest baby when they get sick? Oh,
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: Ashley says Ashley, Jared says, Jared explain, Jared really hasn't
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: been sick on me. He really hasn't been sicker on me.
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: I haven't had like a bad cold or flu or
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: anything like that since we've lived together in the past year.
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: But I have thrown up in front of him a
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: couple of times. You haven't been too much of a baby.
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: The only reason I said this was because one night
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: I wasn't feeling well and you made me a peanut
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: butter and jelly sandwich and like gave me liquid ivy.
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: I know it wasn't but that's the only time I
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: really remember who was better. Can't answer that yet, do
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: you guys not cook? Just give me a second, Ben,
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: let me think about this. Make sure you look Jared.
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: You're you're cheating the better cook. Gosh ah oh, Jared says.
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: Jared actually says both. Okay, that wasn't so bad. So
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: Jared doesn't consider like making pasta or sandwiches. I never
- 1:25:08Speaker 1: said anything. She made me a turkey sandwich one time.
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: It was like I cooked for you, and I was like,
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: wait a minute, making a turkey sandwich. She's like, I
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: put the toast in the toaster. Was like, that is
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: not cooking the right amount of like you know, condimenting.
- 1:25:26Speaker 1: Constant discussion of what is cooking and what is not cooking.
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: And I am still on the side that a turkey
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: sandwich toast or no toast is not cooking. Okay, So
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: for everybody out there listening, please email us at Ben
- 1:25:38Speaker 1: Actually I heard me dot com is making a turkey
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: sandwich cooking or not cooking? Audience, raise your hand if
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: you think making a turkey sandwich is cooking. All right, Okay,
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: So I've really only cooked, like I only make pasa
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: and like is it warming up, boiling pasta and then
- 1:25:56Speaker 1: putting sauce on top of it, cooking too more of
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: a Jared has only beyond that. Jared did it once
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: and he made me steak and like Brussels sprouts and
- 1:26:09Speaker 1: mashed or big potato, which that's real cooking. But he's
- 1:26:12Speaker 1: only done it once, so I don't know if I
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: can really so he wins, so he went. Okay, next question,
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: when you first met, let's flashback to the very first
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: time you met, not after any love had been sparked.
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: Who made the first move? Ah? Oh, there is a
- 1:26:31Speaker 1: big pause. There, there's a big pause, and they both say, Jared, Jared,
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: please explain why you think you made the first move? Well,
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: because Ashley was more open with her feelings. But I
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: was the first. I was the person to kiss Ashley first,
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: which is the move. That's the move. And he did
- 1:26:49Speaker 1: it really, really well. He was like, so like, you know,
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: you wait, I really don't want to wait for the
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: perfect moment to do what I gotta do, you know,
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: And then I was like, yeah, I know, and then
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: he went right in for it. It was cut. It
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: was something along those lines, something al those lines. Adorable. Okay,
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: three more questions. They're gonna give it to the audience
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: for a few minutes to ask any questions they want.
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: We'll close up out of here and we'll call it
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: a great podcast and give our thank you to some
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: people who have made this thing happen to night. Three
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: more questions. Who said I love you first? Well, they
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: both say Jared, true or false. Jared said I love
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: you first. I said on Bachelor in Paradise I would
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: love with him. Now you said you you what happened
- 1:27:37Speaker 1: on Bachelor in Paradise is you called Lauren in the
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: car ride home and Lauren said, well, were you in
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: love with them? And you were like, no, but as
- 1:27:45Speaker 1: close as you can get. Yeah. But in Bachelor in
- 1:27:48Speaker 1: Paradise three, I did say like, but I love it. Yeah,
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: but with the like the first like I love you
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: was Jared. Yeah. Okay. Final question, who does the dishes?
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: This is not even Jared with the win, Jared with
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: the wind. Thank you, actually, Jared, please turn it to
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: the audience. Audience. I want to give you we just
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: got a few minutes, let's say five minutes. Raise your
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: hand if you have any questions. We have somebody with
- 1:28:13Speaker 1: a mike walking around, somebody's got to have a question,
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: what are you I know you already lived together, so
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: that kind of answer is part of it. But what
- 1:28:25Speaker 1: are you most looking forward to? Like literally the second
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: after you get married, what's the first thing you're most
- 1:28:30Speaker 1: looking forward to? Both of you? What do you mean
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: like on the wedding day or just maybe after the
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: wedding days over. And I'm I'm really looking forward to
- 1:28:37Speaker 1: the honeymoon because I want, I want. I think it'll
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: be nice for Jared I to actually get out of
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: the country, like to really detach ourselves that much. Um,
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: we haven't, like when we go on vacation and stuff.
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: It's not always it's like sometimes like tied to business
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: and stuff like that. I'm like excited for the honeymoon
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: to be truly just romantic. And I've always like dreamed
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: of a honeymoon being like by definition, like you go
- 1:29:02Speaker 1: the day after the wedding and it's just like a
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: super romantic vacation. And that's That's what I'm really really
- 1:29:09Speaker 1: looking forward to. I think that we should even like
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: put our phones in the safe in the hotel room. No,
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: I agree. I think, Uh, sometimes we get bogged down
- 1:29:17Speaker 1: into like what we do is work and so on
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: and so forth. And then we actually just took a
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: day vacation down and like, yeah, we just took a
- 1:29:28Speaker 1: day and it was so nice and kind of like
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: rebooted everything and you and you just you forget things,
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: especially as a couple. You know, you you get into
- 1:29:35Speaker 1: the work day and then like life goes by and
- 1:29:37Speaker 1: then you kind of like just stop for a minute
- 1:29:40Speaker 1: and have a moment, even if it's just like getting
- 1:29:41Speaker 1: a hotel room and you're like, oh no, this is yeah,
- 1:29:45Speaker 1: that's right, this is this is love, this is romantic
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: and and and so I think that was a really
- 1:29:50Speaker 1: nice day for both of us. And so that's what
- 1:29:52Speaker 1: I agree. I'm looking forward to most and wearing a ring.
- 1:29:55Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. I'm so excited wear wing. Wait wait,
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: is there like anything more attractive than a hot guy
- 1:30:02Speaker 1: in a wedding ring. You're like, Wow, he's hot and
- 1:30:05Speaker 1: he could commit. I don't know. Yeah, I tried one
- 1:30:07Speaker 1: on the other day and I was like, this suits me,
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: this fits my personality. I've been waiting. It does hil
- 1:30:16Speaker 1: on raising your family. We're going to be in l
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: A for probably in the next four years. As our
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: tentative plan. We have so many opportunities out here and
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: our business is really out here right now. But we definitely,
- 1:30:29Speaker 1: like ideally plan on raising them on the East Coast,
- 1:30:32Speaker 1: probably around the New England area, because that's where Jared's
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: from and like truly that's where his heart lies. It'll
- 1:30:38Speaker 1: be closer to my parents, which are only an hour
- 1:30:41Speaker 1: away flight wise. It's literally like you blink like Genie
- 1:30:44Speaker 1: and you're there, And yeah, we both you know, I
- 1:30:49Speaker 1: think we both consider that home. But I love it
- 1:30:51Speaker 1: here in l A almost as much as I love
- 1:30:53Speaker 1: it over there. But um, I feel like after four
- 1:30:56Speaker 1: or five years, it'll be time for him to be
- 1:30:59Speaker 1: in his home. Yeah, I agree. I think back East
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: is a little bit more my speed. Plus you know, uh,
- 1:31:07Speaker 1: friends and you know family are out there, and you know,
- 1:31:11Speaker 1: nobody's getting younger. So to close out tonight, I need
- 1:31:15Speaker 1: to take the time to answer these two questions. I think, um,
- 1:31:20Speaker 1: I'd like to take the time to answer these two
- 1:31:22Speaker 1: questions my best advice for Ashley and Jared. First off,
- 1:31:27Speaker 1: thank you for let me host your wedding shops. Thank
- 1:31:30Speaker 1: you for um and thank you to all of you
- 1:31:33Speaker 1: came in tonight to iHeart Studios to hang out with us.
- 1:31:37Speaker 1: We appreciate it. Thank you for listening, Thank you for
- 1:31:39Speaker 1: showing your support. Shout out to the girl who came
- 1:31:42Speaker 1: from Kansas City and anybody who took a flight to
- 1:31:45Speaker 1: get here. Really mind boggling and amazing. Thank you so much.
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: I was that fangirl you know she still don't kill me.
- 1:31:55Speaker 1: No, no no, but seriously, like a big thank you to
- 1:31:57Speaker 1: all you guys, because without anybody, everybody here you know
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: who's living in l A that's trying to do something
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: with our lives and taking advantage of the opportunities. Without
- 1:32:05Speaker 1: you guys, none of this happens. So don't ever forget
- 1:32:10Speaker 1: that door, forget how much we appreciate you guys and
- 1:32:12Speaker 1: are thankful um for everything you do for us, the
- 1:32:17Speaker 1: people here live tonight, UM, thank you, but also everything
- 1:32:20Speaker 1: out there listening. Ashley and I just found out this
- 1:32:22Speaker 1: week this is our the week that marks our second
- 1:32:25Speaker 1: year doing the Almost Famous podcast, and today listen than this.
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: This is crazy. We've had over fifteen million individual downloads.
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: That means fifteen million listens in this two years that
- 1:32:40Speaker 1: we've had Almost Famous podcast. It's so awesome. It's so crazy.
- 1:32:45Speaker 1: But hey, back to the question, what is my best
- 1:32:47Speaker 1: advice for Ashley and Jared Um. Typically, what I'd like
- 1:32:51Speaker 1: to do in this moment is to just pump you
- 1:32:52Speaker 1: guys up, because I think marriage is such an awesome
- 1:32:55Speaker 1: thing and I think it's something that you're committed to
- 1:32:57Speaker 1: when you're running to full force. But I know you
- 1:32:59Speaker 1: guys already can it in this choice. And so what
- 1:33:02Speaker 1: I thought about this tonight, what I want to tell
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: you is I look at you too, and as I
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: told you, in the last two years, I've seen this
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: change in you that is admirable but also just one
- 1:33:13Speaker 1: that I look at and I'm inspired by, Like I
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: want to have that change. I I want to have
- 1:33:18Speaker 1: the peace and the confidence um that you have and
- 1:33:21Speaker 1: I think I'm finding it like I have found it right,
- 1:33:24Speaker 1: but I've seen it exists because of how you have
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: handled this situation and how you guys have walked this together.
- 1:33:32Speaker 1: So my advice to you guys is, don't lose this.
- 1:33:36Speaker 1: Like Jared just said it, In relationships, time goes on
- 1:33:39Speaker 1: and activities go on, and there's travel and there is distraction,
- 1:33:43Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you do get sick in
- 1:33:45Speaker 1: front of each other, maybe more than you want to,
- 1:33:47Speaker 1: and you lose what exists today. It just happens. But
- 1:33:53Speaker 1: my advice to you guys is to not to lose
- 1:33:55Speaker 1: this because what you have right here is absolutely beautiful.
- 1:33:58Speaker 1: It's inspiring, and the world is on your team, and
- 1:34:02Speaker 1: I'm on your team. So I'm just so that you
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: guys and I've got a front row seat to witness
- 1:34:08Speaker 1: something so magical in the sixth or seventh row. But regardless,
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: I'm gonna I was on the list. You're at the
- 1:34:18Speaker 1: top of the A list when it comes to like
- 1:34:19Speaker 1: our mutual friendless you know, yeah, yeah, I was on
- 1:34:23Speaker 1: the A list. That's all that matters. Um. My favorite
- 1:34:26Speaker 1: thing about Ashley and Jared is this. This is funny
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: because I think it was said the night when we
- 1:34:31Speaker 1: were standing out there, but you really do represent this
- 1:34:35Speaker 1: like TV relationship, like this relationship that's storybook like when
- 1:34:41Speaker 1: when people are around you, it just seems different. And
- 1:34:45Speaker 1: and my favorite thing about that is you've both kind
- 1:34:47Speaker 1: of leaned into it and you're both yourselves, which means
- 1:34:50Speaker 1: as a couple. I'm such a fan of you guys,
- 1:34:53Speaker 1: because you've made yourselves that much better as people. I've
- 1:34:57Speaker 1: known you both before you met, and now I known
- 1:35:00Speaker 1: you as you've met, and you both have grown as humans.
- 1:35:03Speaker 1: And I think as we look at relationships and we
- 1:35:06Speaker 1: try to commit to somebody, isn't that what we're looking
- 1:35:08Speaker 1: for is a partnership that just makes us better and
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: makes us more of ourselves than we ever knew we
- 1:35:12Speaker 1: could be. And that's my favorite thing about you two
- 1:35:15Speaker 1: as a couple is I just am so pumped there.
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: There is not many times in my life I've had friends,
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: um date people well until they get married, where I've
- 1:35:23Speaker 1: been like so confident, But since the beginning as a friend,
- 1:35:26Speaker 1: I've just been so pumped that this finally happened and
- 1:35:30Speaker 1: this day is coming up close. You know, then thanks
- 1:35:34Speaker 1: so much. This is like the most amazing way of
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: celebrating our relationship. Like I feel like very warm and
- 1:35:41Speaker 1: fuzzy inside. Well you should. This is about you guys.
- 1:35:43Speaker 1: We love you, We love them right, Yeah, it's it
- 1:35:47Speaker 1: was incredible and it's crazy to think that, Like I
- 1:35:50Speaker 1: know I always kind of reminisce, but like thinking about
- 1:35:55Speaker 1: like Bachelorette and you and I and like I'll never
- 1:35:58Speaker 1: forget sitting next to you at men Tall and you
- 1:36:00Speaker 1: texted me and you're like, man, I was super nervous,
- 1:36:03Speaker 1: but like sitting next to you, calm me. You just
- 1:36:04Speaker 1: like say the nicest things, and like meeting Nick in
- 1:36:07Speaker 1: New York when he crashed our season and then like
- 1:36:10Speaker 1: gone through Paradise with them and living with them and everything,
- 1:36:13Speaker 1: Like it's just crazy that you go through this weird
- 1:36:15Speaker 1: experience and then you ended up coming out with you know,
- 1:36:18Speaker 1: your closest friends, Tanner and Jade, Carly and Evan, um,
- 1:36:21Speaker 1: you know, and there's many more. Um, it's just it's
- 1:36:25Speaker 1: it's it's wonderful but also just mind boggling to think like, yeah,
- 1:36:29Speaker 1: this is this is where it all generated from, this
- 1:36:32Speaker 1: is where it all started. There there, and to close
- 1:36:35Speaker 1: out this podcast because we do gotta get going, Um,
- 1:36:39Speaker 1: there's a night Jared and I always felt, I mean,
- 1:36:41Speaker 1: and I think admittedly so I don't know if it's
- 1:36:43Speaker 1: because they were personalities the same or not, but we
- 1:36:44Speaker 1: always felt like the outsiders in the batchlight like we
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: don't belong here. Um, you mean, you're very fantastic looking
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: men with fantastic personalities. You know, it's so funny. It's
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: so funny, like how we're all like I'll never forget
- 1:36:57Speaker 1: Night one. I remember meeting you and both you and
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: I clicked because it was like, what the hell is
- 1:37:03Speaker 1: going on? Mcdill's getting drunk la and it was like this,
- 1:37:08Speaker 1: I don't know what the hell we're doing here and
- 1:37:09Speaker 1: I and and Tanner was so funny because he was
- 1:37:11Speaker 1: telling me the first time he met you, and Tanner
- 1:37:14Speaker 1: is like such a big fan of the show, and
- 1:37:15Speaker 1: he was like, yeah, as soon as I saw Ben,
- 1:37:16Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, this is the next Bachelor. Yeah,
- 1:37:19Speaker 1: he's told me that before. I don't get it. But
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: there's a moment when it was a night that Jared
- 1:37:25Speaker 1: ended up going home. We were on a carriage pulling
- 1:37:27Speaker 1: up to a castle in Ireland and we're sitting next
- 1:37:30Speaker 1: to each other and we're like, tonight, like this is
- 1:37:32Speaker 1: gonna end for one of us, right we you know,
- 1:37:34Speaker 1: we we expected it, and we said, but this is
- 1:37:41Speaker 1: gonna be one of the coolest life changing experiences and
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: who knows what happens next, And this is what happens next.
- 1:37:48Speaker 1: And I'm so pumped for you guys. Thank you for
- 1:37:50Speaker 1: doing this, thank you for letting me celebrate you guys,
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: and also thank you to Dunkin donuts. Yeah, not as
