• 0:36
  Speaker 2: but I yeah, I don't. I. I actually was just
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: doing a podcast the other day with a former alumni
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: and they said, are you ever bummed that you don't
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: get asked to go on the show more? And I said,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: there's like small times in my life I'm like, I'd
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: love to go back and do that, and then most
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: of the time I'm like, I don't even remember that
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: being an option.
• 0:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, well, it's funny.
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: I think the only reason we got back is because
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: Jason erlik right, one of the producers. Yeah, hey is
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: back in the back in the heads or one of
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: the head seats, and he's the only one that knows us.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: You know, Jason Erlick was the head producer on a
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: show that about ten people watched called Ben and Lauren
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Happily ever After after.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: My Oh my god, he was your producer.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Head producer. That's that was his first round, like go
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: back into the Bachelor world once he came back from
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: being gone for so long.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Oh my god.
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: But he's a good dude.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: I really uh Okay, So you were obviously on this
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: last episode, but let's catch up with the two of you,
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: because we really didn't get to during this episode. The
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: two of you are obviously living in Seattle, which makes
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: sense on why you were on this show specifically, but life, Like,
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: are you big Bachelor fans still? Is this still a
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: part of your life?
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Why are you?
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: No?
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: I mean we I Jason never watches the show? Yeah, exactly,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: like not at all. He has removed himself from that world.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: I have not watched the show. It was probably I
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: went ten years without seeing it, and then we went
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: to the Golden Wedding and I talked with Joey at
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: the wedding. He's like, you've got to give this season
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: a chance. So then I watched his season and I
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: like fell in love with the show again, honestly, like
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: taking a ten year hiatus and coming back, and his
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: was a great comeback season because it was amazing. So
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: now I watched his season and I've always been watching.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: This season time out what I love my wife, but
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: she's lying, what like the show? And she's only watching
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: it now because Riley our daughters. Riley's into it and
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: that's mommy daughter time.
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: And Riley might come down here now, But that's why
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: you're watching it.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. Like the other night, maybe two weeks ago,
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: I was like, I don't want to watch it. We'll
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: like save it for another day. I mean it's a
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: lot of it's a big time to me, and Riley's like, no,
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: we have to watch. I need to see who gets
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: kicked off.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Well, you know the best part about watching the show,
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: like when you're on it, is they give you that
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: non commercial version. Yeah, so cut it down from two
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: hours so like one thirty Yeah, which you get thirty
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: minutes of your life back.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Trust me, it's been about eight years of that and
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know what my life would look like if
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: it wasn't for that. Yeah, now, okay, that actually brings
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: up something I'm curious about, and I don't I don't know.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: There's not many This is going to sound awful towards
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: you too, I don't mean it that way. There's not
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: many people from the show that have kids now able
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: to watch it like that are getting into that age.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: So I've never asked this question. I'm actually very curious.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: What is it like now having a daughter who's watching this,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: who's intrigued by it, and then I have a thousand
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: follow up questions on that.
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it even goes beyond that. There's a college age kid.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: They actually watched it with us last night and watched
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: the during COVID, watched our season and saw how double.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Were back here he had been. He had all of
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: his friends over every night during COVID and they would
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: watch our season down and I would hide in our
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: bedroom because it was the most humiliating thing ever. So
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: I'm glad we got that done. Riley has zero desire
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: to watch our season. Even seeing the the little flashback
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: they do in the episode from last night, she freaked out.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: She was like, oh my god, she's also at that
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: age where like she sees somebody kiss and literally every
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: time somebody kisses on the show, she's.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Like, yeah, So would you if say she did come
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: say hey, I really want to watch your season, would
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: you watch it with her?
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: Would you even allow her to watch it teenager?
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Maybe maybe when she's a little bit older. I mean,
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: she knows kind of the gist. She knows how the
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: show goes, and she kind of knows how our ending went,
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: like I wanted to be sure now that she's getting
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: into it, that I explained you know, Daddy didn't pick
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: me if they nixed somebody else. And so she knows
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: all of that, but that she has a desire to
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: watch our season.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: She would when her when she's old enough, with her
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: teenage friends, they'll all want to Like Ted didn't want
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: to watch you when he was eleven. He didn't want
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: to watch until he was like fifteen or sixteen, and
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: he's a guy that doesn't like the show.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: We'll have to let her watch it eventually.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: It feels like to me from an now, satays like
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: I would be so anxious, like I won't allow Jess
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: to watch it.
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: My wife, like she season.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: She hasn't probably ever watched a season of the I
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: don't think she's watched more than two episodes.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, I've seen Jason season before when he was
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: on the Bacheorette. I've never seen it.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she would never. There's more. My wife is very sensitive,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: and so I do think it would like not be
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: a healthy thing. I think she could laugh at a lot,
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: but there'd also be moments where she's like, I don't
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: want to I didn't.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: Need to say yeah, yeah totally, and.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: So like for me, it would be a very nerve
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: wracking experience. I think I would be like, yeah, you
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: can watch it, but you're you know this, you might
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: see us differently, which I don't, you know, but that's
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: healthy for any kid. I guess at some point they
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: have to realize their parents aren't perfect. I don't know
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: if you're if Riley's areet.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: I was most panished is perfect. When I was watching it.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: I was most panicked because like I was like, what
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: if these boys him and his friends like someone better
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: on the show, you know, but like they're stuck with me.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: But that's not how it went at all. They were like,
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: you're the goat, You're amazing.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: Some people like like people that we met that are teenagers.
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: They call her the goat and that's ridiculous.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: But no, you take it in, accept it, just accept it,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: feel it. I mean, how many times in our life
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: now do we actually get to feel really good about ourselves,
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Like if that's that's something to Michael.
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: Jordan, Tom Brady and.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: Makes us feel an.
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: Actual goat, it really helps us out.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Okay, so the kids are watching the show now, but
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: obviously during this episode we see the two of you
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: in a recording studio. You were really I don't know
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: how many people know this. You were to the really
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: first podcast breaking down the Bachelor back in the day
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: or talking about the show. Yeah, so how much of
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: that is still a part of your life? I mean,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: was this your full time job to be, you know,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: to go in the studio and do this love on
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: air show.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: But we well, initially talk, sure, she lets me talk sometimes,
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: so well, initially somebody from the local radio station said, hey,
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: this is.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: What yours is.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: Twenty twelve.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: They're like, hey, the future of radio is this podcast.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: We're going to host a podcast for you. You guys
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: can do whatever you want. And it was once a
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: week and it was really easy.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: Recapped the show.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, similar, right, But it was just the two of
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: us and really was a baby, yeah.
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: Baby, a baby, and so it was super fun. It
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: was super easy.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: But then Mollie got hired as a radio host locally,
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: so we had to cut that off because of that,
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: because it was kind of what's the right word, it.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Was competing radio station. Meeting your podcast was with one station,
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: and then my job was with iHeart. I was so
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: Bender and that you see on the show. Him and
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: I did the morning show on Kiss FM here locally
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: and I was at that station for seven years.
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: And we met when we filmed our season of The
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: Bachelor as a fake radio show date with Bender hosting
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: it back.
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: Well, where was it twenty nine to ten?
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So the show that you see on last night
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: episode is.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: It's not a real show, right noe.
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: All the contestants thought it was real.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: They did, but Bender and Jewbile are on different radio shows.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: I don't work in radio anymore, so it was just
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: put together for last night's episode.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: It'd actually been a very interesting concept if you could
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: get people to come in there and really like hash
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: out their love issues but also their their story and
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: people want to listen. It's kind of like, what is
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: it Delilah? You know Delilah like local that night? Oh really, all.
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: These competition back in the day.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: Well, I kind of loved Delilah. Her voice is very soothing. Yeah,
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: it's very nice. Are you still in radio.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: Molly, No, I stopped during COVID, stopped doing radio. I
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: loved it while I did it, but I was getting
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: a little burnt out, like four o'clock in the morning
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: getting up every day with kids. It's tricky.
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: We had needed her to sell houses with them.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Now I work with Jason. We work together in real estate,
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: so yeah.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: How is that going?
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: It actually really well? Honestly, Jason's been doing it for
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: eleven years. Yeah, I've been doing it for about three
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: and a half.
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: We work from separate locations so that we can have
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: some separation. Jason goes to his office. I work from
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: home so that we can at least have a normal
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: conversation at night versus being together all day long. But
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: it's been great. Yeah.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: We were both good at different things, like I handle
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: the contracts and the client stuff, where she makes all
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: the houses look really pretty good.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's a good team. But Jason, when
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: you were the Bachelor. Were you in real estate then?
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: I wish I was. That would have been awesome.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: No, I was kind of doing some financial services type stuff, right,
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: And I think if I can go back and like
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: I always thought I was going to get into real estate,
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: but no, I wasn't back then.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: But the so some of the people we've seen it
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: with a few, like recent bachelors specifically, they kind of
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: made the switch to real estate post show.
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: I wonder, what's funny. I just connected with Clayton.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I was thinking of.
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so I just connected with Clayton recently because we
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: had some mutual stuff going on in real estate, and
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: I was like, how long have you been.
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: In it for it? He's like just a year.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: So I think there is a piece of like cause
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: I think from the outside, you're like, oh, real estate's easy.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: You know, all you need to is need people, meet people,
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: and you can make a lot of money, which is
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: a lot harder than that. So I the perspective is like, hey,
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: I'll get my license and everybody knows who I am now.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: But like Ari's in it, Yeah, we've.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: Done like we helped Ari's, we helped uh Lauren's parents
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: Lawren's parents mean, yeah, yeah, so it is kind of cool,
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: like especially for people who are Bachelor fans, and if
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: they want to work with people that are in the
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: same like business and they get to know all of us.
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: I think people get a kick out of it.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, but that's not I mean, is that
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: why you made the switch over to real estate, is
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: because you thought, Hey, people know me, they'll want to
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: work with me.
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: No, it's it's more more of like real estate's just
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: a really good business to be in in general. Like
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: if you're selling something, right, and the most important thing
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: in your life is something you're talking about all the time,
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: or the most expensive thing or the most valuable thing
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: in your life. So if you're sitting at a coffee shop,
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: people are always talking about like how do I pay
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: my house?
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: Do you know a landscaper?
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: And if you can become the hub of those conversations,
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: it really becomes valuable. And we've also owned a bunch
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: of houses, right, I'm all can making pretty.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: You can come here and do that. You can see
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: my office. It's not thank you, it's a lot of
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: things from my life that have been placed on a
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: shelf behind me. Yeah, I sell coffee for a living.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: I'm imagining the margins on a house. Uh a little easier.
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: Do we all those same shelves?
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: We have upstairs.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah you know how hard they are to set together?
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: For my Kia, they were not easy. So okay, so
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: the two of you are working now together. That's a
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: big update in life. And then let's just kind of
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: tease here. How in the world did you end up
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: on the show, because, as you've now mentioned, Molly, you're
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: watching the show with Riley Jason. You're not really watching
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: the show much anymore or ever. Yea, ever ever's probably
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: a fair word to say. So you get a phone
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: call from Jason who says, well, you know, you know.
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: What actually is really funny. You remember how he called.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: So he calls initially and he's like, so, I hear
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: you and Molly are not doing well. And we granted
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: we had just seen him at the Golden.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: That's always a great intro. Yeah, I've heard through the
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: great friend that you and your wife are struggling, but
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: he knows that's not true.
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: You just saw him at the wedding. So he's like,
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: I hear you guys aren't doing well, and we're looking for.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: The next Golden Bachelor you consider, and like, granted, I
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: mean I'm old, but those guys are twenty five years
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: older than me. And I was like, dude, what the
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: hell are you talking about? And he's like, okay, So
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: since that's a no, would you guys consider hosting a
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: dat and Seattle? Yeah?
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: Like he kind of set me up, and of course
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: like that kind of stuff's fun. We haven't done it
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: for a long time.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: It's been interesting. Like when we got invited to the
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: Golden Wedding, I was pretty hesitant. I have kind of
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: put this chapter behind me, and I feel like I'm
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: not We're not involved in that world anymore. There's there's
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: new fresh young blood out.
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: There that are half my age.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I just even at that wedding, I felt
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: really like an outsider. So I did have a good time.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: It was great seeing people like we've known you. It's
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: good seeing people like that again, you know. But I'm
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: glad that helped me get my feet wet a little bit.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: So then when he did Jason did call Eric and say,
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: do you guys want to host a date? It was like, Okay,
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: I just did this, I can do it. Again, it's okay,
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: let's do it.
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: And I would say probably like our at this point
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: in our life, it's not that our friends and even
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: our clients and people around us, they really get a
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: kick out of it. They're like, oh my god, you
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: guys are really on the show. Yeah, and it wasn't
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: it's black and white anymore.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean, and I do think the Golden
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: makes sense for all of us to go back to
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: because I do think that the people watch the Golden Show,
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: at least for that last season, were people who watched
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: it twenty twenty five years ago. Like it's a very similar,
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: you know group. You know, this this new blood that's
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: coming through these new seasons. I think it is a
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: different group that's watching. I don't think you have the
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: same demographics. And so, you know, the Golden era of
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: the Bachelor was the beginning, you know, first few seasons.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: Do you guys remember what happened at the Golden wedding
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: with me and Jason with you two? Did I ever
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: tell you this?
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: Oh god, I don't know.
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: It's a big deal. Okay, I'm excited.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: So you know, I haven't been on the show, as
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: I mentioned, in five years I'm excited to be there.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: There's there's a lot of people I don't know producer wise,
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: like most of them are you know, have come and
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: gone since my time on the show. And it is
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: We're all dressed up, ready to go into the wedding,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: and they're telling me the stuff I'm going to be doing,
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: like you know, you're going to go talk to the
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: red carpet people and all this stuff. So I'm getting
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: prepp in the beforehand though, we need you to go
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: take your photos, like your pre wedding photos. I said, okay.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: So I walk over there and I'm standing there and
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: taking photos, take a pickup pictures, and they go, hey, Jason,
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: can you put your face? Can you put your chin down?
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: I said, Jason. They go, yeah, Mesnik, And You're like,
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: I'm damn old, and I said, I bet Jason fifteen
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: years older than me.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: I was already feeling a little awkward at this thing.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: I already feel like I don't belong now. The producers
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: of the show don't even know what my name is.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: They have no clue who I am. So I'll never
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: forget that. I also will never forget Jason, that you
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: were you came to the house when I was the Bachelor,
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: and I really appreciated that too.
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Oh yeah, Well we took shots, right, and.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: We took shots together. Was it kind of loose me up?
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: And the two of you came. I believe it was
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: for Bachelor Live on stage in Seattle. I got to
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: see you.
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I stopped in for that.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: So you have had a big piece in my journey. Yeah,
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: including getting the two of us confused, which I take
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: as a compliment because you're a very good looking man, Jason.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: I appreciate that.
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: It's like looking in the mirror.
• 16:07
