• 0:14
  Speaker 1: We're so excited to have you listening to us, because
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: I am very excited to Actually we're trying something different today.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: I can actually see Ashley as I sit Indianapolis, Indiana
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: and participate in the podcast. It's so helpful. Hey guys,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: You guys don't understand how frustrated I get when Ben
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: and I talk over each other during an interview. So
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: this is going to help prevent that. Yeah, speaking of interviews,
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: we're just gonna start right into it here. We have
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: one of the weirdest stories I've ever heard, Ashley. We've
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: talked extensively about how much we like shorthaired Becca during
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: the season of The Bachelor. Um, but something really weird
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: happened this week that I don't quite understand. Do you
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: understand it? Um? I do think I understand a bit.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: So back when she was filming The Bachelor in October
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: and November, she you know, it was obviously away from
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: her phone for a while. I think she got back
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: from filming. This is just my understanding, and then we'll
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: get the real interpretation. Afterwards she gets back from filming,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: she says, she goes, hey mom, I'm gonna go work
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: on a pot farm, and then didn't have service for
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: a couple of days, and then her mom reported her missing,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: like as recently as November. It's it's all very odd,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: and I don't I mean, I think you're you're right,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: and you're onto something. Honestly, we don't really fully know
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: that the the whole extent of the story. So we've
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: actually reached out to somebody who do does know the story.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: We're reaching out to Melody from People magazine, uh, to
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: get the inside scoop on this and and try to
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: explain this to this a little better, because if you
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: and I just talked about it, I think we're just
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: gonna make it sound even weirder. Yeah, it's it's just
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: like one of those things where you and I shouldn't
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: even give our opinions because we're just gonna start rumors. Yeah,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: that's He's like, you're making a really smart decision actually
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: by calling an expert in today. Thanks, Ben, it was
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: definitely your decision. All right, let's get Melody on the phone. Hey, Melody, Hi, Alright, Melody,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: tell us what's going on with Becca. It's kind of
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: a hilarious story. Um So, basically, her mom reported her
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: missing in November because she wanted to apparently go spend
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: a few days or maybe a week working at a
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: marijuana farm. And I think, like any other mother, she
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: was like, please don't do that, and execuly ignored her.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: And then just also the police piled us reception is
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: really terrible. They're understandably, so maybe her mom couldn't reach
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: her and so reported her missing just to do, you know,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: due diligence. And and then the sand saw her picture
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: on that cover and was like, um, I think that's
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: that girl in the casuler and so suddenly it turned
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: into this path thing and um, as noll, no, Becca
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: is not missing on the Bachelor her so this was
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: not the mom did not file this missing person's report
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: when she was filming them. Yeah, I mean it would
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: make sense if she didn't tell her mom that she
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: was going to be gone as long as she was.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: And then the mom freaked out and thought, oh my gosh,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I haven't heard from my daughter in seven or something weeks.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna file he or missing. That seemed to be
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: like a really funny that wasn't even funnier story, but
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: this just the timing was very similar. And she gets
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: back from filming The Bachelor and then they file a
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: report because she went to work in a marijuana farm.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: It's like, what it's yeah, I mean it's pretty funny,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: and it's to Becca right like it's so bad. Yeah,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: And then she got all this cap saying like, well,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: you look totally different. Well, you know, she was fifteen
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: in that picture. We all look crazy in our like
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: DMC photos. I remember having earrings like that the year
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: that Becca was fifteen, I was twenty one and I
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: definitely wore this puney on. This makes me realize that
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: she is too young for ARI because her mommy didn't
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: know where she was. No, my mom and dad would
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: done the same thing. My mom and dad tracked me.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: I have the what's you know, my Find my Friends app?
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: And my dad knows where I am. He checks at
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: every other hour. I'm not even joking you. Yeah, so
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: that's like very my parents to do. And I'm twenty nine,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: and it's fine. Actually you have to find my Friends
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: app and your parents track that. Yeah, But even if
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: the find my Friends app doesn't work, then we used
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: find my iPhone. So sometimes it'll be like location unknown
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: and then I'll like go into my sister's Find my
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Friends and I'll buzz her. I'd be like, Melody, you're
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: you seem to be up on what's normal and not
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: in the world? Is that normal? Like it was that?
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: What actually is doing? Is that? Is that? Okay? I
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: mean the amount of times my mom has almost called
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: the police because I have no reception. We're I'm like
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: the same ways actually, but I feel like I'll forever
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: be like twelve years old to our parents. Yeah, and
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: I'm totally fine with that. What if I was to
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: be kidnapped, then they know where I was, I'm fine
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: with that. Please track me. And there's this new I
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: don't know, I'm totally off I'm off topic of it
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: right now, but there is a Black Mirror episode that
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: just came out like two weeks ago about this mom
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: who she like puts a chip in her kid for
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: tracking reasons, which I'm a total proponent of. Don't judge me.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: I would love to put a chip in my child
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: until they're eighteen that they can take it out. Um,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: and then I have to worry about where they are.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, they can go wherever they want. That's the thing.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: They can go wherever they want as long as I
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: know they're safe. Actually, this is the weird Okay. So
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: we're gonna get into a couple of topic here. Um,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: just to remind everybody out there, we have Melody from
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: People Magazine on the line with us right now discussing
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: the Becca issue. Becca from r e season of The
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Bachelor suddenly disappeared and showed up on the missing person's
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: report for California. Thanks for forting back to the topic. Yeah,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: but later to be found out that she's never been
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: missing and her mom just couldn't get ahold of requests.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: That's what we're talking about. And Ashley has just said
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: that she would love to stick a chip and her
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: kid actually coming from Indiana and growing up in a
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Methodist church, you know that was the one thing that
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: everybody was most scared of, was putting chips and people
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: really yeah, yeah, why we can get into it at
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: some point off off offline, but you know, one of
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: the signs of the mark of the Beast is that
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: somebody would have a chip in them. That's what we
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: grew up leaving. You've never heard that, huh yeah, So
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: for you to say that out lad kind of steers
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: me a little bit, like it's because nervous. Isn't it
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: crazy that we put chips in our dogs, but we
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: wouldn't put chips in our kids, and if we lost
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: our kids, we're going to be far more freaked out.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: What's funny is that Black Mirror episode. It's worse you
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: learned thing from you know, I'm telling you, Okay, this
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: is what the Black Mirror episode um taught me and
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: you guys, if you haven't listened to watch it, you
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: should probably go watch. It's pretty fascinating. So anyway, it's
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: not just for tracking. This is where the whole episode
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: goes wrong. They can also blur out like traumatizing images.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: So therefore the kids like don't know what to be
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: scared of in life, or like how to recognize an emergency,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: So that's where it all goes wrong. There should never
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: be a blur option. But just like where's your location option,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: I'm totally down. Actually, you know there's things in your family,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Ben I could talk about that are also highly disturbing,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: like oh, I'm not gonna go there your childhood. Now
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: you're making me work. Now, let's just go there. What
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: is it? You know, how you how your grandfather like
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: made you do certain activities and yet melody, so sorry,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah we're coming back he here in one second. But
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: but so growing up, my grandpa would force me to hunt,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: and so as a child, as a young stound, I
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: would have to go hunting with him and do some
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: things that have guarded me for life and I think
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: have had added to either the darkness in my heart
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: or allowed me to see that I don't actually love
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: hunting and must other people do so? Um? Anyways, okay,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: let's go back to this. If this is weird a
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: situation is what it seems like like this situation seems
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: very odd and either ironic or just kind of humorous
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: that it comes up as she's on the Bachelor. I mean,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: I've never heard of this happening, and I think somewhere
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: along the way someone just forgot to let everyone know
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: that she wasn't missing. Um, it's pretty funny, low and
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: and I think she's also I mean, the most horrified
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: part perspectoo is that her fifteen year old picture is everywhere,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: and I think I would be just as traumatized by
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: that too. I definitely agree. One thing we're gonna do
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: just to kind of make this story even funnier is
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: on my Instagram after the episode, I'm going to get
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: a picture of Ashley from her when she was fixteen
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: and posted on my Instagram, just to kind of show
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: that the relation between the two, you know, what's going
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: to happen. Then people are even like Ashley has so
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: much blastic surgery, like this is gon my nose like
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: totally sinned out, and then my my cheeks used to
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: just be gigantic, and it's just like you know, getting
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: older and your face lives out. But bring all the
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: plastic and honor of Becca Ashley. Your picture is going
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: to get posted. Um, I think that's too bad. But
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: this is you said it best melody. The thing I'm
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: here and here is this is so Becca, Like like
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: if if if we thought about Becca and I know
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Aston they are both fans. This is something that doesn't
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: surprise me. No, not at all. And I love her too.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: I think she is the youngest one on that show,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: but the most level headed and but also like she's
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: kind of weird in a really good way and for
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: and he's like, for this to happen to anyone, I
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: feel like it would only happen to her on the show. Yeah,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I agree. I agree. Um Well, we thank you so
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: much for coming on the podcast and explain it to this.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: If Ashley and I talked about it, I promise you
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: we both just make Becca seem even weirder than what
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: this situation already is. But thank you for coming and
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: clarifying exactly what happened and allowing us both uh to
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: not make this situation even ODR. Thank you guys, appreciate me.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: You know, I wonder where um Becca's mom thought she
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: was sleeping during those days. I'm sure she wasn't sleeping
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: on a sleep Number mattress while she was farming at
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: the marijuana farm. I don't think that's good. Actually, just
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: keep going now. Most Americans get less than the recommended
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: seven to eight hours of sleep a night. If that's you,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: science proves that you'll be able to achieve your goals
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: easier if you get more sleep. The sleep number bed
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: let's you choose your own ideal comfort and support on
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: each side, and that's perfect for couples. And the newest
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: beds are so smart. They actually sense your every move
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: and automatically adjust so you stay sleeping comfortably throughout the night.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: They even have an adjustment for snoring. Does your bed
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: currently do that? Mind does? Because it's a sleep number? Oh, Ben,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: you have a sleep number two? What is your sleep number?
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Setting you guys? Yeah? What is yours? Ben? Mine? Right
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: now I'm looking at a seventies seven. I'm feeling odd,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: like an odd number, and I'm feeling like I like
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: it a little firmer than usual. So see is what
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: I'm sleeping on this week. I like it soft, so
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: I like it in the sixties. But it is kind
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: of cool Ben, if you did, if you ever get
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: a girlfriend again, that she could have one number and
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: you can have another because it does right side left side.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's yeah, a spot on. That's
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: what we talked about every week. Here is the coolest
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: part about a sleep number bed is both sides can
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: have different numbers. It's like you have two separate beds.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: You can roll out right now. The best part for
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: me is once I can be firm and second be
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: stopped when I when I'm lonely, because that happens often,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: I just roll over a couple of times, and I
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: have a whole new bed pretty nice. Well, don't miss
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: the best bed for couples or singles at the lowest
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: prices of the season, coming now, and save four hundred
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: to seven dollars on the most popular sleep Number mattresses.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: You only find it at sleep Number, and that is
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: sleep number dot com or any of the five hundred
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: and fifties sleep number stores in nationwide, and be sure
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: to tell them the almost famous podcast sent you okay back.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Are you a cuddler? Yeah, I'm like too cuddly for
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: every human man. They're like, really, it's fine if you
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: kind of let me when you're awake, but like if
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: we're sleeping, I'm snuggler. That's no. Well know, like you
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: and I would not get along. Well, because here's my
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: biggest thing is I'm hearing you read about sleep Number
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: and it is really one of the best pets out there,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: if not the best in the world. I love it.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: I slept on it for years, like I can't. Like,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: one of my biggest pet pieces is being cuddled in
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: the middle of the night. It makes me really coustrophobic
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and read I can just kind of tell that you're
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: you're a midnight cuddler. I totally am, and everybody tells me,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: they're like, actually, you can't do that with guys. It
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: gets too hot. I'm always cold, So like, I don't know,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: I just love it nuzzle my days and like their
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: skin because I love this man the man smell. What
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: is that? What a man smell? Yeah, explain this to me,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: like you guys, it's just like a pheromone thing. Oh yeah,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: so it's not like the like body odor. It's just
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: like it's like the distinctive smell of a guy skin,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: not necessarily fine or anything. Next time we're together, I

  Speaker 1: I guess. Yeah. What's your favorite thing about this show?
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: My favorite thing about the show is um, like, well,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I really want to be a Bachelor when I'm older,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: so I just like watching it. It's a great goal
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: in life. I'm proud all the boys want to be
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: the Bachlor. I like this guy Hey worked out for
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Peter Krause. That was his goal and well, you know
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: that was all his issue. In fact, did your parents
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: have any rules about you watching because it can be
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: a little racy. No, they don't really have any rules.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: Ten year old can do it. So tell us, tell
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: us about this season. What do you think of Ari?
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I really like him, like I um, I like UM
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: like race car driving, and he's a race car driver,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: so I like that and I think he's nice and
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: he's fair and I don't care if Crystal says he's
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: a liar because he's not. Yeah, let's let's talk about
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: that group date. So so Crystal thought he was a
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: liar because he went back on his word and it
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: ended up inviting all the other girls to that that date.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Did you is that a decision you would have made?
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Would you have ever had everybody come as well? The
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: winners and the losers. Yeah, because like it wouldn't have
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: been fair. And if it was Chris, like if it
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: was Crystal's team that lost, she would have she wouldn't
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: have been saying like, um, it's like not fair, like
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: I think I would have if I'm if I was
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: or only would have um, let everyone come, because it
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: would have been fair. Who's your favorite girl so far? Jack?
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: What girl do you like? M I like Tia. Ben
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: likes Tia too. Are you happy to see Crystal go home? Yes?
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: I was so happy when Kendall's out the road. So
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: who do you think has had the best to on
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: one in Bachelor history? I think that was really good
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: because this one because Crystal she was she said she
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: was ready, she was definitely getting the rose, and then
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: she didn't, and I liked seeing her go home. Yeah,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: So you don't like overconfidence. When overconfidence enters into the Bachelor,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: you say you need it's time for you to go. Yeah,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: and like also going back to that group when she
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: she also um, she said she wasn't going to the
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: um after party and then she showed up and then
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: basically like I just don't think she's like very like
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: I don't like she was calling Ari a liar, but
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: then she showed up, so she was kind of being
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: are So yeah, I like, I like that she went
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: home because I definitely did not think kendall Um was
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: going to get the rose. How do you feel about
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: short hair and being that young? Um, I don't think
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: she's like like like Ari said once, Um, like he
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: likes her, but she's really young and he wants a wife,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: not a girlfriend. Jack, She's only twelve years older than you. Like,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: you know that the different the age difference between you
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: and Becca is is shorter, is less than the difference
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: in the age between Ari and Becca. Yeah, that's kind
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: of crazy, so weird. Yeah, that's kind of weird, very weird,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: actually very very odd. But it is true, so we
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: have to think of it that way. She makes a
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: good point, Jack, You're not that far away from potentially
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: becoming our bachelor that we're gonna be watching. If you
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: were the Bachelor this year, would you would you how
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: would you rate Ari? Okay, let's let's ask that for
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: first off, how is are you doing his bachelor on
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: a scale one to ten? Um? I think he's a ten.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: He's I think he's amazing, like he, Um, he's he's
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: super nice and he's doing like a great job, and
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: I think he's picking the right people. I think he's
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: picking the right people. Then then how do you, um,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: how do you explain why he's kept Crystal around up
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: until now? Um, because Crystal knew him the most, like
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: he took her to his hometown and um, and like, yeah,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: she knew him the most, and he very key liked
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: her and he wanted her to have a second chance.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: But I did not think that was right. Like, um,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: the last road he said, he said Crystal, and I
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: did not think that was good. But but she's gone
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: now though, Like I guess it's fine Jack when you
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: become the bachelor, because after hearing you talk your your
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: way too sophisticated from your own good, you're gonna get
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: get a lot of trouble now And like, well, how
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: would you handle being a bachelor? Like what would be
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: your thought practice going into it? Um, my thought would be, um,
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: it's not really like what they look like on the outside,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: but in the inside, so like um, like Crystal, she's
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: like she's pretty, but she's not a good person and
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: so um, like I would not want someone like that,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: like I would want someone who's like kind and helpful
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: and like yeah yeah. So hey, all of your Twitter
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: people out there, if you if you want to get

  Speaker 1: something new to wear with fashion delivered right to your door. Wait,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: so this is my big question for you. Actually, I'm
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: trying to learn more about women in general. Okay, that's
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: one of my goals for this year is just to
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: become more familiar with women and how I can relate
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: better with them. Is it a true thing that being
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: a fashion or an outfit repeater is looked down upon?
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: Because I know I know people who literally will not
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: wear a dressed. The two events like the only where
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: it was, And to me, that's crazy. I wear the
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: same pair of jeans every day of my life. I
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: have a couple of pairs of jeans that I wear
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: over and over again. Pants do not get include it
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: in this outfit repeating thing. We can't all have a
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: pair of new jeans every day. It's tops. When I
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: was in high school, I was insane. I would usually
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: not rewear the same exact outfit, but I would probably
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: never wear the same shirt twice. As I get older,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: I'm less and less crazy about that. Like, I think
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: you've seen me in the sweatshirt like five times already. Um,
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: But when it comes to events and stuff like that,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: if it's posted on Instagram or for US bachelor girls,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: if it's like somewhere floating in the picture of it
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: is somewhere floating online, then we're never going to wear
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: it again. And I think the Instagram rule kind of
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: applies to a lot of girls out there. I think
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: if it's been posted, they're not going to wear it again.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: But like, just like as an adult female, even growing up,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: my mom would always go buy a new dress for
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: like she and my dad's fancy the gallas and stuff
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: you know she was never gonna wear the same fancy
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: dress as she wore the year before, the same the best,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: same rule. Stick with me because I think if you
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: got on my Instagram, every picture on my Instagram, I
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: have taken it about the three different shirts. Like for
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: the last four months, every every picture up there is
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: about three different shirts that I've worned. Okay, well you
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: know what. I love what you're wearing right now. This
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: is like a female favorite, just letting you know, well,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: at least it is within my sister, me and a
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: couple of my friends. We love a guy who rolls
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: their sleeves midway through their forearm, midway to the forearm.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: That sleeve roll is so sexy. There's something very subtly
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: sexy about a guy's forearm. And then I like it
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: when you have the three button shirts. I love a
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: three shirt. It's cozy, Yes it's cozy, but it shows
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: off your body, but not in like a flamboyant way.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah I get that, Yeah, I understand it. I'm just okay,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: So if you don't wear a dress twice, what happens
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: to the dress what you wear it one? Okay, So
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: I can't believe you just said this because I'm on
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: my way to putting together an event that I'm going
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: to call the Bachelor Girls Yard Sale. I found a
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: venue so that all the l A based girls are
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: going to get their their clothes together. They've already worn
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: once or twice, but they're too nice to like put
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: in the donation box. Like I I donate clothes all
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: the time, Like I literally go through my closet and
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: donate close all the time. But then there's a couple
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: of outfits that are like two dollars each and they've
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: only been worn twice, so I don't want to just
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: you know, put them in the donation box. So what
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: I want to do is have all the girls in
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: l A who are on the Bachelor and who happened
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: to be some of the most fashion forward girls, um
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: bring all their stuff to this place on one Saturday afternoon,
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: and then all the proceeds will glosiarity. But I'm like
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: still in the planning process. But how great of an
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: idea is that? That's a great idea? Mean, because this
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: is the thing, and actually I think you're on the
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: something and this is a good thing to talk about
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: about the show. If people expect everybody does the back
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: their bachelort to have a ton of money to their name,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: and that could not be farther from the truth. Like,
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: you don't make any money by doing the show. You
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: only make money on sponsorships or endorsements afterwards, and that
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: doesn't happen to everybody. So clothes is a good way
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: for some of these people to kind recoup all the
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: money that they've you know, lost by taking a break
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: from their lives for three months. That is also a
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: good point. Yeah, so no, that's a good thing. Is
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: that people ask me all the time, how much money
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: do you make from doing The Bachelor at? I made
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: zero dollars from doing The Bachelor The Bachelor. I was
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: gonna say, The Bachelor, The Bachelor, we make zero dollars.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Doing The Bachelor, the Bachelorette, we make a you know,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: we make a couple of hundred a day doing the
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: spin off shows. Nothing crazy. Yeah, I mean, I think
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: that's a great idea. I think it's gonna be crazy popular.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: And one of the things I've always been impressed with
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: The Bachelor At and The Bachelor are the men and
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: women always seem to be so fashionable. For me, I
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: went to Cold before the Bachelor atte and I bought
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: two suits, one blue, one black because I could figure
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: I could miss mix and match those up a little
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: bit um and I got the show, and I thought
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: I had some of the coolest clothes I've ever owned
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: in my life. And I was so far behind the time,
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: like I did not look cool. Ever, I still, I
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: still cannot consider myself fashionable. So if anybody else there
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: wants to help me out, please shoot us an email
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: at ben in Ashley at I heart meaty dot com.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Helped me out with some fashion advice. I need it
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: so much. You know that you had like a really
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: fashionable top three though, with Sean Booth looking like he
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: could be like a Hugo Moss Boss model. And then
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: there's Nick, who you know is he wears things so
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: well mm hmm yeah, Nick does wear things, so it's
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: just he pot Tika forearms. Nick's got some forearms on him.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: I'm actually looking at ask right now, and and somebody
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: working with sho Erica sitting behind her, and she was
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: I'm sure she was just looking at my Instagram because
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: she got on her phone as soon as I said,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: go look at my Instagram. How many different pairs of
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: clothes anywhere. She's sitting back there just shamefully shaking your head, like, Ben,
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: you are so such a loser. He actually, uh, we
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: gotta do a quick recap here. Uh this week's episode
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: of The Bachelor. I think it's getting crazier and crazier
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: every week. One way I would explain this week, in
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: my opinion, is awkward. One of the moment to stand
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: out to me was the first part of the Lauren
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: B Date. Now, obviously that it kind of turns around
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: at the end, but that first part of the Lauren
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: B date between Ari Uh and Laura B was so
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: so odd. Or maybe it's just the fact that her
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: name is Lauren B. And if I okay, I was
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: just gonna ask you that, and like, is this weird?
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Especially as we go further and further in the season,
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Like what if this girl makes it to the top
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: four and there's another Lauren B who's that prominent in
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: the Bachelor world. Yeah, again, that just seems like a
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: lot of fun for me. It seems like something that
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to see it. You know how many
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: comparisons come out there, and how many things alike, I
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: know they trust me. I've already seen that that this
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: this Literally, if I could have picked a really bad situation,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: this wouldn't be the worst situation I could think of
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: for this season. But this is a situation to be like, Yeah,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: I'd prefer to not have a Lauren B on the
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: show that also looks a lot like you know, Lauren B. Yeah.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Do you think they just made it awkward? Yeah? I
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: think it was. I all like, you know, Ben, You've
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: been on so many one on ones in your life,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: and I've been on four four five, And when you're
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: like strolling around like that, it doesn't you don't have
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: to talk the entire time. Like it's kind of hard
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: to have like a full on serious conversation or even
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: just like a flowy conversation on camera surrounded by all
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: these people while you're standing around and moving and walking.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: I like to have real conversations. This is with like
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: a romantic interest or even with a friend while I'm
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: sitting down with some food in front of us, and
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: it's like time to talk. But if I'm just strolling around,
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: I don't. I don't really feel the pressure to fill
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: every moment with words. But he was asking her questions
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: and she just wasn't responding, like there's a moment. I
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: think he asked her about the cheese or I was
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: trying to talk about some cheese, and she be given
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: him anything back. I mean she was just shaking her head. Okay,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: you know I thought it was a coward. I think
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: if you were there, is awkward. He kept saying, I
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: like you, I'm interested in you, and I really want
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: to know if you're interested in me, and she kept going, mmm,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: I don't know you guys. I was so weird. I
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: was like, what's happening? And then we get to the
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: dinner and he drops like the bomb of the century
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: on her. What did he say? Remember remember he said
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: he had a girlfriend that he got pregnant. That's right.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: And I was like, this just took a crazy turn.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: That's crazy. That was crazy. And that he reveals so
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: obviously he likes Lauren enough that he really wanted to
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: reveal something vulnerable, said she would feel more comfortable vulnerable
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: with him. Yeah, I mean, do you think that did
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: because leading up to that, this seemed odd. It seemed
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: like almost why would he tell Lauren this scenario? Because
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: he I feel like he has deeper relationships with other women. Um,
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: you know the one thing I did notice with Ari
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: and Lauren, And I don't know if I'm touching on
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: anything here or not, and please tell me if I'm crazy.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: Is it seems like leading up to this, one of
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: Ari defense mechanisms is when things get awkward, he starts kissing. Okay,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: so there's a moment silence, he grabs the head, he
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: grabs the faith in his lips, just absolutely consumed the
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: other person body. Okay, So this is my This is
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: my theory. He likes Lauren enough that he doesn't feel
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: like he wants to do that every week because he
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: just wants to get to know her. So that was actually,
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: in my opinion, a compliment by not making out with
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: her every time the conversation stopped. I think so too.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: I felt like we were getting like a lot of
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: their relationship was growing through almost all the awkwardness because
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: they at the end of the day, they trumped all
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: the awkwardness. Yeah, yeah, I mean, okay, so here it.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: What do you think of Laura? Thanks sense here? Yeah
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: you are making sense. What do you think of Lauren's
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: response when as Amy just mentioned when Ari dropped the
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: bomb on Lauren that he at one point in his life,
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: has gotten one of his girlfriend's pregnant. Do you think
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: she responded in a way that showed that she really cared.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: I think that must have been like the hardest thing
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: to respond to on camera, like what do you say?
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: But I think that she just seemed like sweet and
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: understanding and she didn't seem there's not a lot of
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: meat there is what I think. Okay, so that's good,
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: that's nice. That's a nice way of putting it. There's
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: not like a I don't know, I don't like want.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: She's a nice sweet she's nicely cute, but she's not
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: giving me anything, right, But like I don't know, there's
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: just different kinds of girls out there, Like she may
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: not be dynamic on TV and you know, but maybe
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: she's perfect Ferrari Right. Yeah, Well this is something that
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: you know that uh, you know different. Amy. If you
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: have any opinion here, I'd love you to chime in
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: because I think you and actually have both been around
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: the franchise long enough to hear if this situation UH
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: plays out often. But already made a comment uh during
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: his date with Lauren that I found very relatable to
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: me personally. He said, I don't know if Lauren is
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: that into me, because I've been so nervous the whole
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: time that she wasn't into me because I haven't been
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: able to give for the attention maybe that I've wanted
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: to that I feel like I'm chasing a bit. He
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: said that in different words, but he pretty much said, Hey,
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: I feel like I've been chasing after Lauren since the
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: moment this show had started. And as a result, Yeah, exactly.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Don't you think that's why it works? Because he's used
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: to all of these girls chasing him. So the girl
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: who's playing hard to get on the Bachelor, where like
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: it basically is impossible to play hard to get, that's
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: really gonna work for him, wouldn't it work for you? Well?
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: That's my point is I remember, over and over and
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: over again being totally like sick to my stomach at night,
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: especially early on going this Lauren girl, Lauren b Is
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: it doesn't like me. She's not gonna like me. I'm
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: not getting here the action that it needs. Like, I
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: need to get out of this room right now and
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: just go tell Lauren, hey, please stick around long enough
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: that I can give you the attention that I want
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: to give you. I remember thinking that thought, probably nightly
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: during the Bachelor, because I didn't know what was going on.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: I didn't know if she wanted to leave. I remember
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: the first night Lauren looked at me and said, I
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: missed my dog. I want to go home, and I thought,
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: I like this girl. I can't let her go home.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: And that was in my head the rest of the season. Wow.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: So I know you're like not supposed to play games
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: when like the love is real. But playing hard to
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: get always works. This is the thing I am, and
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: I know this. Playing hard to get never works. Being
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: hard to get will work every time, will never work.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Then you become crazy, Crystal. It's like you're so crazy
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: and you don't even know who you are. You have
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: to be who you are, but you actually have to
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: be hard to get. Now what level or to what
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: extreme that is is up to you, you know, or
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: any any time out here. Okay, we're going to get
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: some here in a second. We're obviously going to talk
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: about about her and her scenaria. But this is this
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: is a nugget of information and wisdom and truth coming
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: from you that we need to elaborate on. What for
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: all of our listeners out there and honestly myself because
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: I have no clue what you're talking about. What is
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: the difference playing hard and being hard to get? Playing
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: hard to get is getting a text and then intentionally
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: waiting an hour or three days to text back. That's
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: playing hard to get. That's playing a game like if
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: you want to text back, text back. Being hard to
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: get is being like confident in who you are, being
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: fulfilled in who you are, being happy in who you are,
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: and like as cheesy as it is, loving yourself enough
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: to be worthy of what the other person wants to
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: give you, and the opposite, like you need to be
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: able to be like I want to give love and
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: receive love authentically. I would add to that, but there's
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: no need. That was perfect and that is really the
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: way to be. Thank you. Yeah. Okay, actually, Astley, before
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: we move on here, are you? Do you play hard
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: to get? Or are you hard to get? Okay? So
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: I've never been very good at playing hard to get,
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: however I have in the past, but I actually feel
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: like this past year, like for about a year now,
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: I've been hard to get. I agree, Thanks Amy, I
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: know you and I agree. Yeah, yeah, you've got some flag.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, I can tell, actually, you you've got something
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: that you you haven't ever had before, and we're all noticing.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: We're all noticing. Thank you, Ben and the other person, Like,
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: I can know you love them, you care about them,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: You're a hundred percent in with them. That doesn't make
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: you not hard to get. Like, it's so much bigger
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: than that about being who you are are playing games
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: is just a giant fail. Yeah, I think. Um. Something
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: I said over and over again in my pre interviews
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: with Winter Games was I was like, if I find
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: someone that will be really nice, but I'm at this
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: point in my life like and just being comfortable and
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: like loving myself and just being where I want to
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: be with my career and in my friendships that it's
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: just like a nice bonus now. It's not something I
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: feel I need to like complete me. I'm not like
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: gonna just like Chase after it. And this is why
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: Crystal imploded, because she was playing a character that she isn't.
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: She was being so cocky and being so self righteous
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: and being so like Glitter, I'm better than everyone here
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: there beneath me, when you know, deep down she doesn't
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: feel that way at all yeah, I mean, so here,
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: here's the thing. Actually just mentioned something here. I need
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: to I need to pause this conversation for a second.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: Actually not going to do a Winter Game special podcast
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: for our listeners because we both participated in Winter Games.
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: We're gonna give you some behind the scenes information. We're
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: gonna talk to some cast members outside of ourselves about
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: what went on exactly, uh in Vermont during these few
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: beautiful weeks that we spent there. Make sure you tune
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: into the the Ashley I and Ben Higgins almost famous
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: special podcast on the Winter Games that you will see
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: come up on iHeart Radio app here in the next
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: week or so. Okay, moving on, then, I want to
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: ask you both, does Crystal play hard to get or
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: is she hard to get? And here's my opinion. Okay,
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: whatever she's doing, we have to have a little sensitivity
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: towards her because it's it's hard and it's difficult, and
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: you can tell that she's trying, but she's missing the
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: mark somehow. And I'll just say that out loud. Crystal
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: missed the mark when it came to pursuing Ari, and
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: she had didn't allow Are to pursue her well because
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: something was missing and I want to hear your opinion, actually,
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: what was that? What is missing from herself that's making
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: her play this game. I don't know if we can
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: say that what was missing during this experience for her
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: that this always seems like there's a disconnect between her
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: and the women, her and herself and her and Ari.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of it's just her competitive nature.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: I feel I feel like, you know, she's athletic, and
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: she must have a passion sports. Oh, she's um, she's
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: a bodybuilder. Have you ever seen those pictures out there ripped? Yeah, insane.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: So she's just like a really competitive person and I
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: feel like this whole thing for her is probably about
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: winning and beating the other girls than being with Ari.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: Is that so? Do you think that's the common in
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: every season of this fear of losing pushes these men
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: and women forward to pursue love. Not maybe that they
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: love the Bachelor bachelortte, but they're just so scared of
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: in quotation marks losing that they pushed themselves through. I
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: think it depends on the personality. I ask you guys
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: a lot of that too. It's like, if you if
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: this wasn't a competition with you guys, would you liked
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: her as much. I don't think about that with you
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: in Caitlin, because i'd be I'll obsessed Caitlin. But there's
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: a lot of guys who I'm like, I feel like
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: you just wanted to win, because guys always just want
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: to win. I would agree with you. See that's the
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: thing here is watching Crystal for a while, I got judgmental.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: I got very critical. I couldn't quite figure out why
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: she just was always like every scene she was in,
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: I was like pulling my hair out, like why would
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: you say that? Why do you do that voice? Why
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: did you know? Why are you taking him away first?
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: And what I started to make sense to me is
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: she was just so scared of losing that she got
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: very competitive, and her competitive nature maybe took over. And
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know this. I haven't talked to her. I
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: would love to get on the podcast to ask her
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: personally about this, but it seems like the competitive nature
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: of some of these can testines take over completely and
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: and it and it completely changes the dynamic of the
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: Bachelor Bachelorette because some people there are really just excited
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: about the idea of funny love. They really liked the
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: Bachelor bachelort. They really think that they're sweet and that
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: there's a future there. Some of them come into it saying,
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: I don't want to go home early, I don't want
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: to embarrass myself, and I just at the end of this,
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: I see, I see the trophy, and I'm going to
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: take the trophy. I can only speak on behalf of myself.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: I really really liked Chris at the time, and I
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: never thought like, oh, this is about winning. I even
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: thought if I get to fourth, I'm really going to
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: have to get I really have to reconsider things like
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: I'm not about winning. I just I want to know.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: I don't want to I wouldn't want to be that
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: far and know that he probably wasn't my person. I
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: liked him a lot. I liked him a lot perfectly
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: to where I stood, which was seventh place. I liked
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: him seventh place. What about you, It's funny, I'm just
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: laughing at you because I liked Tim seventh place. Actually
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: that's such an actually kind of okay. So for me, Um,
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: I was trying to prove my friends wrong the first
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and so I'll be honest, the first
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks was me trying to prove my friends wrong,
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: because as I left for the Bachelor Bachelorrette, I guess
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: my friends are like, Hey, this is great, this is awesome,
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: but you understand there's some like really cool guys to
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: go on this show, and like, you know, I think
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: you could be there like two or three weeks, Like
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: I actually think you're cool enough to like make it
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: past night one. And I'm like, I don't know how
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: to take that, Like that hurts a lot to hear
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: that your friends don't even have the confidence and you
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: can make it past, you know, the first three weeks
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: of the show. So that was the first three weeks,
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: was trying to prove something wrong with them, And then
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: I started to realize the time out. I actually like
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: Caitlin a lot. I don't want to leave because I
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: want to see if something else is here. And here's
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: another point. I had a lot of good friendships on
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: this show. Like I really enjoyed the guys that were
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: on the show, and so I didn't want to leave
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: them either until it became that I wasn't. The competitiveness
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: was no no longer existed, but the relationships, the relationship
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: with Caitlin and the relationship with my buddies. We're having
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: a good time. This was not something you want to leave.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: I didn't want to leave the environment. I didn't want
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: to leave the sorority house. Yeah, I would agree with that. So, uh,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: for me, I can't relate with the competitive nature. But
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: I do know that that people out there feel that way,
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: and I think that's what took over Crystal. I think
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: it was time for her to go. Already made the
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: right decision there. It is time for all of us,
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: as fans of The Bachelor and fans of Ari and
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: fans of this season, to no longer have to do
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: it through the lens of Crystal. Let's move on to
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: find this true love story. So I actually I want
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: to ask you before we close out here, in your opinion,
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: who's your top three girls for Ari at this point?
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: My top three girls for Ari Lauren, b Becca k
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: and you know what Crystal. I mean Crystal, not Crystal.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: Kendall is moving up in the game. He really likes her,
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: but I think he likes Becca m moore. So I
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: think those my top three. Am I missing somebody? Oh
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: ta ta, that's my four? I don't know. I wouldn't know,
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: but I would count that as the four and then
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know how they're going to place after that. Okay,
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: what about Okay, Amy and Astletly, I want you to
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: both answer this question. Your opinion. Who's the next bachelor?
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: Long haired Becca? Yeah, I don't know. If we talked
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: about this um a couple of weeks ago, I said
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: that Becca m was too young to be the bachelorette.
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: I was like, no, that is so annoying for us,
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: like upper twenties, early thirties girls out there, who like
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: need a parade of men. But she has her whole
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: twenties to get a parade of men, and her like
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: you know, biological clock is not taking at all. But
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: now I love her so much and I have such
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: a girl crush on her, and I think she's so
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: fascinating to watch that I just kind of wanted from
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: my own entertainment for her to mot bachelorrette. They're never
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: quite as dynamic as that, though. The bachelorette is always
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: a tiny bit more subdued so the the guys. Except
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: for except for Caitlin thought, I think the opposite. I
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: think the bachelorettes are normally full of personality because I
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: think about like Desiree. I don't think I think Caitlin,
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: Rachel and Jojo. Alright, alright, fine, fine, I'll give it
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: to you, Okay, I personally And here's the crazy thought.
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: And you both have told me if I'm wrong, I
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: don't think Becca Shorthaired backgam can be the Bachelorette anymore,
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: even even if it wasn't her fault, because of what
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: just happened with the missing person report, I don't think
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: the Bachelor would have this storyline leading up to announcing
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: her as the Bachelorrette. I don't. I don't. I just
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: it doesn't feel right to me. Now, Okay, that actually
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: makes sense, Like her missing on a marijuana farm, yeah,
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: not just just not really classic. Yeah, like if we
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: were going to have like a hipster version of the Bachelorette,
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: like she'd be perfect for that Bachelor Alive from Humboldt. Yeah,
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: I mean I get it though. So that's my thought
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: is as much as we love to speed back and
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: I think she could do it and do great at it,
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: I just think her missing on a marijuana farm you
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: have to throw that's no longer the thing. What I
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: am willing to say, and we have paradise. I will
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: bet you, I'll bet you both, okay, one hundred dollars each,
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: that the bachelorette is on this season. She's in. She's
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: one of Ari's girls. Yeah, I would have like, we're
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: not going to go into the catalog and bring back
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: Christina or whoever. It will be one of these girls.
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: I am going to agree with you, So I'm not
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: even gonna play Ben, do you want to go against us?
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: I completely agree. I mean I honestly, and I said
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: this since the beginning, and I'll say it again. I
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: said it every week. Ari has an amazing group of girls,
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: and amazing in the sense of this is a really
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: great group of women who I think not only is
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: he going to find somebody he really cares about in
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: this group, but that the Bachelorette could be two or
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: three of these girls. And you know, I felt that way.
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: I felt that way about Tea, that way about being
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: about long haired Becca, short hair Becca. I forgot about
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: her great choice. Yeah, So you know, I said it
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: every week. I think a group of women is absolutely
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: just stacked. So yeah, if it doesn't come from this group,
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: I will be shocked because I think they have a
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: lot of really great women involved. Speaking of shocking really quick,
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: I was very shocked that Chelsea went home. Okay, me too,
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: because Chelsea just had a one on one last week
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: that went pretty well and she's got a lot of
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: screen time and now she's just gone. It was just
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: like a week later, He's like, no, m at the
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: bottom of my tone and Pole like she's just yeah,
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: it's pretty weird. I thought that was crazy, like the litter,
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: But then how was Jenna. Jenna lasted as long as
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: Chelsea did. And Jenna reminds me of Amanda Cypherd from
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: Mean Girls, like she would tell the weather with her boobies.
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: What do you mean you know, I'm now drawing him, like, oh,
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: Karen Karen for Mean Girls, Like, Jenna is the one
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: who's like always strattling Ari and like saying things that
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: are just random and very spacey. But we we never
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: really got to know her very well, and all we
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: did was see her like being kind of drunk, and
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: she ruins me so much of Karen. Yeah, I don't
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: know what you just do with you You just your
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: food and move them in different directions. Seven says, you know,
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: I think it's there's a seventy chance of rain today
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: and really quickly. I would love to get both of
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: your opinions. Because when the girl I don't know her name,
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: I feel like her name might be Jacqueline was on
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: the one on one with a They're literally I'm like,
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: who are you? And then they're discussing logistics of their
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: future and it couldn't have been more not gonna work,
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: like she be a doctor, would be like some kind
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: of psychiatrist. He's a race car driver. They live on
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: opposite ends of the country. They're talking all about how
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: the logistics will never work. But then he's like, but
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: here's a rose, and I'm thinking, well, wow, huh. So
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: I wanted to ask Ben, like, would you keep someone
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: even though you really know like logistically this is unlikely? No,
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: I mean honestly, Uh. That you know played a factor
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: in my um decision with Jojo as well, because I
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: know that her family really wanted her Dallas. They thought
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: she had to be in Dallas. I think Jojo want
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: to be in Dallas to her family is there, it
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: made sense for her to be there, and as I
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: talked to her, it was hard for us to kind
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: of come to uh, terms with where would we live?
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: Would we live in Denver? Would we live in Dallas?
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: Would we live with It didn't make sense, and so
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: we weren't making any progress on those conversations. And I
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: think we're both just I mean, I'll speak for Jojo.
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: I think we're both being a little stubborn as the
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: thought of this seems like a lot to talk about,
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: and we just are like kind of getting to know
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: each other. Uh. And it pushed me back a bit
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: because I you know, we weren't coming to a compromise.
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: So I do think it would play a role in
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: in anybody's decision if logistics weren't gonna work, if you
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: could never be together. But I gotta pause you both
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: there and say, if they ever do get together, there's
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: something they have to do and they have to try. Uh.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: And and that's cooking together. Cooking together. Uh, it's one

• 55:00
  Speaker 1: People on golf? I don't really get star struck anymore,
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: but like Tony Romo and Rogers, Josh you Mel, They're
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: all going to be there and guys like look out
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: for my picture with Josh you Mel. I'll get to
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: live out my win. A date with Tad Hamilton's dreams,
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: Oh my god. And I'm so supportive of his relationship
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: possibly with Jennifer Garner. All right, and that's for another
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: time in place. Um, I feel like we can't go
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: on and move to our emails for the week until
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: we talked about the two on one, just like a
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: little like two minutes of the two on one, because
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: Kendall and Crystal going to two on one, and if
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: we don't talk about it, our fans are gonna be like,
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: how did you guys miss out on that? How did
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: you miss talking about the two on one? What I
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: loved about this? It wasn't very dramatic, guys, Like I
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: still say I'm holding the crown of the best two
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: on one ever? What I know that's why you asked
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: the question who was your favorite of all times? Yeah?
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: That was a joke, Yeah, hey it was it was
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: you Actually for sure, that was me joking around. I
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: was trying to see what he was gonna say. But
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: I don't think you watch Crystal season. He was like
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: seven back then. That's really really young. So Kendall has
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: this amazing skill of being so calm and analytical and
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: just not letting her emotions catch up with her trying
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: to like communicate something like she she's a very calm communicator,
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: and I think that really helped her in this two
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: on one. Don't you think that? Yeah, I mean, I agree,
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: I mean I think that just this. We were impressed
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: with Crystal last week, We're impressed with Crystal. This week's
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: calm Kendall. Kendall, Sorry, she's calm, she's collected, she communicates yourself. Well,
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: I think Kendall, you know you said the last week,
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: I think she's a force to be wrecking with. I
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: would completely agree. Honestly. It just showed the difference and
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: I guess personality types and what was more um relatable
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: to Ari between Crystal and Kindle, and so it wasn't
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: even a question in my mind that Kendall will be
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: staying around. Yeah. I was really impressed by the way
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: that she was just like Crystal, this is how I
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: think your mind works. And just like when when Crystal
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: guesn't says stuff behind her back, she she didn't get feisty.
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: She just was like she calmly expressed herself, and that
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: is a skill I wish I could obtain. Kendall, give
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: me a lesson. Yeah, but hey, We're impressed with Kendall.
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: I think she is going to be around a while,
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: so kindle, we plan on watching you for a long time. Hey,
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: who knows she's also a bachelor at contender. We can't
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: throw her out there. Um hey, actually, let's do one
• 57:30

• 58:38
  Speaker 1: people met and fell in love. So I sit down
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: with eight couples and over the course of a couple
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: of fifteen minute segments on YouTube, you can watch the
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: story of their their love stories. So from the day

• 59:27
  Speaker 1: I think everybody should tune in because you're always entertaining
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: and you're always interesting. Okay, I'm gonna read you one
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: question here one of our emails, and then if you
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: want to pick one for me, that's great because from
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: Megan in Georgia. From Megan and Georgia haven and actually,
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: hope you're all having a great week. Something I've always
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: wondered about The Bachelor is what do the ladies men
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: do when they're not on dates. Are they allowed to
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: bring books with them or at least the Bible? I know,
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: I'm big brother. The only book they can take with
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: them is the Bible, And it got me wondering about
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: the Bachelor's rule on that. As a bookworm, I would
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: not be able to have that much free time without
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: a book. I would just sit around running my mouth
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: all day. I love listening to you all each week,
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: all right through and a half and half. I like
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: that through and half. Hey other, who to my half? Um?
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: What can you do in your free time? On the Bachelor,
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: for me, we played a lot of heads up when
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: we could. When a producer would give us um one
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: of their phones, we play heads up, you know, the
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: Ellen game. So much fun. And as far as alone time,
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: alone time goes um. I'm the Bachelor and kind of
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: on any show, I usually like go to my bed,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: which is like my my little sanctuary to just kind
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: of depressed, I decompressed. I like think that I'll pretend
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: I'm napping. I usually I'm not able to nap, but
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: I'll say I'm napping so I don't see anti social
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: or like email. I say, like I'm gonna go, and
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go and just beat by myself for a minute,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: so I'll go nap or And then during the Bachelor
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: and Paradise, I journaled a lot during that time. I'd like,
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: I'd like to take the top bunk because the top
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: bunk is where you know you can be even more
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: private and secluded from the rest of the group. Yeah,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: I agree, I mean, and and may just answer you.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: The rule on books is this, you can't have any electronics,
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: so you can bring books, but you can't bring too many.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: They'll definitely check and wonder if you bring too many books.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: But I read during my time owner games. I read
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: during my time on the Bachelor, and not as much
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: in the Bachelor because you're so busy. Um, but yeah,
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: I think reading is important. I brought my Bible. I
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: brought a couple of other books to kind of go
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: along with that. That you're more more novel based. So
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: reading is definitely allowed. But you cannot have any electronics.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: That is a big deal. Um. You also cannot bring
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: uh your fab Fit fun Box, So pretty big deal.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: And I don't actually gets really sad because the fact
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: that bum box is one of her favorite things. Then,
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: but you're lying. I I brought plenty of things from
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: the fab Fit Fun Box. In fact, no, yeah, of
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: course I bring stuff from it. In fact, everybody knows
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: I like to ice my face in the morning. Um
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: it's if you don't know that, you find out quickly enough.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: If you're living in the Bachelor house with me. It
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: is my way to deep puff. But I always feel
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: like I get puffy overnight, and it's just it is
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: actually good for your skin. It doesn't just have to
• 1:02:14

  Speaker 1: leads a k. The badchel of the bachelorettes involved in
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: planning the one one date. I don't think I've ever
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: heard alreadys say it yet. This year, I feel like
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: we often hear them saying something like I have a
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: fun day plan for us, or something that infers that
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: they actually planned the date. Do they plan the date
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: for you? Do the producers give you options to choose from?
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: Been really curious about this? Keep up the good work.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: You're very entertaining. Carry from Utah. Tell us did they
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: tell you what? Did they ask you what you want
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: to do at the beginning of the season and then
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: they kind of arrange the dates around your interests? Yeah,
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: so that Yeah, you're your spot on Athley. So what
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: happened is this at the beginning of the season once
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: he announced to the Bachelor, the producers calling, you have
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: this big old meeting with everybody involved, all the big
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: talking heads, and they say, you know, bachelor or Bachelor arette,
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: what do you like to do? And the Bachelor at
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: or Backer goes, I like to fish, I the hike,
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: I like to race cars whatever that is. And you
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: name off all this stuff and then they say, okay,
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: if you could make these in the dates, what would
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: those ideal dates be? And you give them an example
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: of all the ideal dates that you would love to have, right,
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: and all your all your favorite musicians. You know, my season,
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: amos Lee was there. Love amos Lee as you can
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: see if you remember, he actually came on the season like, Hey,
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: I love amos Lee. I think he's a great artist.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: They made that happen. Now here's a little behind the
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: scenes truth I'm gonna be able to personally name off
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: ten things at most that I really love to do,
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: and I'm gonna be able to come up with about
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: at most five to ten dates that I could like
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: definitely plan myself. There's a whole team of people on
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: the bach player that kind of take these ideas, but
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: the Bachelor bachelayer at give and explode them into these incredible,
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: cool dates that you could never imagine or dream of.
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: So I would say that the bachelord Bachelor I have
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: a lot of day in the dates in terms of
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: planning and kind of the idea of it, but there's
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: a whole team of people to help it operate and
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: help it go on. Like there's no way he went
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: out and found a yacht that he could cruise on.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: You know, that's just not gonna happen. That's not that's
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: not that's impossible to do. So there's a team of
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: people that helped him do that. Um and and honestly,
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: after a while, the dates aren't as important as just
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 1: the moment that the date to bring about, And so
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: you're just excited to be with the person and that's
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: all you really care about. You don't want to stress
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: about planning the date. Um, So over time you kind
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: of like step away from the date planning process and
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 1: you're more just focused on Okay, who am I bringing
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: on the day? You know what I want to talk
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: to him about, what I want to get to know
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: from him, that kind of thing. Um. And so anytime
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: I watched the show, I know that Ari or whoever
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: the bachelorre at is or whoever the Bachelor's probably came
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: up with some of the ideas, but not all of them. Um.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: But now the bachelor and bachelor's job is to make
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: the most of whatever date there on. That's my thoughts.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: There you go. Alright, guys, well we love you. Email
