  Speaker 2: Got to make sense of this. Yeah, keep going here
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: because we're here.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna I'm gonna timeline this real quick so it
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: makes sense to our listeners. We've started this show talking
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: about I Do Part two, which is on the Almost
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: Famous feeds. If you haven't listened to it, you got
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: to go out and listen to it.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: And if you need some context as to why we
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: called it I Do Part two, it's because it's all
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: about second marriages, correct.
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: Second chances, second marriages.
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's it's the way to people on it who
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: have had you know, divorces and issues, and you know
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: they're looking for love in all the right places.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: So then the show is great it's entertaining your your
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: The hope is that you meet people that you're kind
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: of dating through this audio. You know, platform you end
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: up trying with the Bachelor guys, you pick guy from
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: this list.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, now, before we continue on with this guy story,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: was your hope true hope, Kelly, that.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: You would meet somebody through this that you would have
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: a good time on a date with and potentially date afterwards.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Or is this just more of a haha, funny we
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: did this thing, let's hang out once and never talk again.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Or were you kind of excited about this idea?
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: I am because I had such a bad experience with
• 5:29
  Speaker 6: my last relationship. I have been going through therapy and
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: being on the podcast at the same time. So for me,
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: it's therapy and cathartic information interviews.
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: So it's more than.
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: Just like you know, being on a podcast and meeting people.
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: It's been a very real experience for me and so
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: but we're also trying to have fun and just bring
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: light to the dating universe. And it's been great about
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: being on this show is that not only have I
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: met so many great people, but I'm also learning so
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: much about myself and what my boundaries are.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: So when we said we're going to do.
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: The dating game, you never know, Ben in life, Yeah
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: you're going to meet me walking in the supermarket and
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: some guy picks up an orange and you're gonna be like,
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: oh my god, there's my man.
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: You could be anywhere.
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: You don't know how you're going to meet someone, know
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: where you're going to meet someone, But to just be
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: open to it, I think is like the start. And
• 6:30
  Speaker 6: so I can't answer the question. And like, am I
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: thinking that I'm going to meet the man of my dreams?
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: I don't know, but I'm open to it.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Who knows the pressure. You're not putting the pressure on you.
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: But that's part of my personality too. I'm just like
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: very like, you know, easygoing, and you know, I'm just
• 6:47
  Speaker 6: interested to meet different people. And I just thought was
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: so fun to do the dating game and then take
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: that person on a date on a red carpet for
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: Iheartradios becauseic Ward, I mean, come on, that's like the
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: ultimate eight.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: So what's your theory on what happened? Was he dating
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: this woman all along and he just wanted to like
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: talk to a former housewife on the radio.
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: Actually I think he did. I think that he yeah.
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: He was just like, is this real.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: I'm like, I'm not sure. What's unreal? I mean, this
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: is real.
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: I'm talking to you, you're talking to me. And he
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: was like, did you really like me? I'm like, well, okay,
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: now you're asking me questions like this is like now
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: you're put I'm putting You're putting me in a position
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: as a doctor, which I'm not like, I I'm.
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: Not a psychologist.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Okay, we have to like somehow make sense of this
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: whole thing.
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: I am like, literally, this isn't like podcast back and forth.
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: This is like real deal, real texts.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and but then he's dating.
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: I think that he thinks it was all in act.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: I think that I don't know what he was thinking
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: because especially if he was texting you long text like
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: that doesn't make any sense. Why is he trying to
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: invest invest in this if he really did have a lady,
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: because if it was just for show, then he could
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: just show up to the red carpet and be like, hey,
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: like just want to let you know, like I do
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: have a girlfriend or somebody who I'm dating.
• 8:24
  Speaker 7: It's it's it might be getting serious. I just wanting
• 8:26
  Speaker 7: to give you a heads up.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: But like the fact that he's texting you on the
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: side doesn't make any sense, and now we really need
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: to get him back on this podcast.
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: Or just you know, you don't even have to be
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: that transparent.
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: It's one date, like I'm not asking yeah, or you know,
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: I don't need a whole like this. It was like
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: it was it was giving me like PTSD from Housewives
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: where they're like, you don't know me, you don't know
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: my backstory. I'm like, I don't know that this who
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: this guy is. I don't know, like you know how
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: who he's dated or what his ex wife was. Like
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: we just met on a podcast on a fundating game,
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: and all of a sud sudden, it went like from
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: zero to sixty. And I feel badly for him because
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: I think he's a genuinely nice person. I just think
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: that he's very interested in the whole vibe. And then
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: he's like, oh, I'm a movie star, I'm on this
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: TV show. I'm like, this's great, yeah, you know, and congratulations.
• 9:16
  Speaker 6: I don't know, we're just having a good time. So
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: then guy and I Gary and I ended up going
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: on the Red Carpet, which was so much fun and
• 9:28
  Speaker 6: what an amazing guy. This guy is no Gary Gary.
• 9:35
  Speaker 7: Guy.
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: Gary is amazing.
• 9:39
  Speaker 6: I mean he's just elegant, well spoken, charming, kind, thoughtful.
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: He was having the best time on the carpet. You know,
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: the carpet can be super daunting.
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: You know, it's like if you you know, I mean,
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: it's not like people are like the red carpet and
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: like no, no, no, There's thousands of people taking photos.
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: People want interviews.
• 9:59
  Speaker 6: There's like major movie stars like behind you waiting for.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: Their real you know, their photos. Like it's a lot.
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: And Gary was amazing. He was like literally like helped
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: me and he was like how you doing, Like is
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: everything okay? And it's just a really really great guy.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: Really great Okay. Yeah, now we're talking about Gary. We've
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: made for the audio purpose. We've made the switch from
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: guy who texted, textedest texted and then finally said, Hey,
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: by the way, I'm in a relationship.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: And it looks like from the looks of.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: Instagram, this relationship has been going on for a while,
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: So we don't know what's going on there. It's not
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: worth to really make assumptions other than say, very odd scenario. Uh,
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: and it only is probably answered by guy himself. So
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: you end up going on this date with Gary, and
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: Gary was fantastic. The things you just said, Kelly, we
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: were really close friends and you were out there and
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: You're like, I'm looking to date somebody. It's not finding
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: the right guys.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: I've tried this La thing and this New York thing,
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: and all these guys are out for something else and
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: it always ends up crashing and.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Burning at some point.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: The things you just said about Gary, I would say
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: as a friend to you is like, well, what are
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: you doing this? You had a good time with a
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: guy in a really awkward scenario that could have been
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: really weird, and you said all these nice things about
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: him when it comes to his character and the way
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: he engaged you and cared for you, and the way
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: he asked questions and you had fun with him. So
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: where does this go from here? Because you had no
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: expectations for I do part two right, but it sounds
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: like maybe like there could be something.
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: He also lives in California.
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: He lives in Palm Springs, and I live in New York,
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: so that's kind of been something as well. I mean, listen,
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: my kids are older, and I can go and do
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: whatever I want now. You know, I've already like that
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: whole part of my life is all locked and loaded,
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: and they're amazing, amazing girls. So I'm open to and
• 12:04
  Speaker 6: I've said this many times, I'm open to moving anywhere
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: doing anything with my life.
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: I can.
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: You know, Gary and I got along really really well.
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: I don't know, you know, I don't know what the
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: next step is. You know, we text and you know,
• 12:18
  Speaker 6: we became friendly, which is great. And then Pascal, another
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: guy on The Golden Bachelor, lived in.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: To my DM.
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: Guys make Kelly the next Golden Bachelorette. He slid it
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: to your DM. So this had nothing to do with
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: the podcast. Nothing And did you watch the Golden Bachelorette?
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: No?
• 12:43
  Speaker 7: Okay, all all strange men from the same cast.
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: Cal I was just like, what's going on here?
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: I love this.
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: It's funny. So it's actually very entertaining. So then, uh,
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: Pascal is like, I'm French. My ex husband was French,
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: and he goes, I live in Chicago and I'm from
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: Illinois originally, and so he was like, and I'm a hairdresser.
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: I was like, oh wow, okay, so we.
• 13:09
  Speaker 6: Then I met him on a podcast too, and we'll see,
• 13:17
  Speaker 6: you know, we'll see, we'll see.
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: I'm just open. I'm open right now. I'm not trying to,
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: like like Ben to answer your question.
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: I'm not trying to be like I'm not like a
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: zero win on somebody kind of person. I'm like, oh,
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: you know, it's just like, you know, let's date before
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: you get married, you know, tried the waters, meet.
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: People like just to see what's happening.
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: I mean, when you've been through such a bad experience,
• 13:40
  Speaker 6: Like I'm a little gun shy.
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: I'm not gonna lie like I've had.
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: Two failed relationships, so I'm kind of gun shy, but
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: I'm moving forward.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: So at this point in your life, then which one
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: of those two from what you know, we'll take Guy
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: out of it for now. Which one of those two
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: are least like your past relationships?
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: Gary's least like my past relationship.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: That would be my second piece.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: Like, these would be the questions I would ask if
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: we were like trying to figure out like if this
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: is good or not, I would say, Okay, you've had
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: two relationships that you don't necessarily look back on and
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: be like those are great, and so it'd be like, well,
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: what what guy is least like them, and so Gary,
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: is that I want you because this is one of
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: my favorite things when people listen to our show and
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: you're in a situation right now where you are actively
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: dating and you are open and you're just having fun
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: with it all. And I think that's just beautiful and great.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: So what are you like hoping for out of all this?
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: Do you want to date now, you know, for the
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: rest of your life and have a lot of fun.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: Do you want to settle down? Are you hoping these
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: different dating avenues lead to like a forever love or
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: is it just is it a lot of fun for
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: you know, for as long as they're you know, you're dating.

• 16:30
  Speaker 3: not desiring the spotlight. But if I was a hey, honey,
• 16:33

  Speaker 2: She'd be like, yeah, that's fine whatever. I mean.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: I'm not like, yeah, I'm not doing it for the fame,
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: but I'm definitely doing it because you want me there,
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: and who knows who else could be there that we
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: could see, and she'd have fun with that.
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: I love that.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: I just want to know, so this I Do Part two? Like,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: where does this show go? Why would somebody out there
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: listen to it? First off? And then we're as a
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: host now a mentor, and you called yourself maybe where

  Speaker 2: And why would somebody listen?
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: So why would you listen to I Do Part two?

  Speaker 6: You're getting real life thoughts, real life advice from the
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: best of the best people. You know, you're actually listening
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: to people's mistakes. And that's what I talk about all
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: the time, you know. You know, there's a lot of
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: people on podcasts that want to talk about how great
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: they are.
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: And all I do from myself because.
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: I want to use this as a vehicle to learn
• 17:50
  Speaker 6: is talk about mistakes, like I made this mistake and
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: I don't want to do it again. So here's the tool,
• 17:55
  Speaker 6: my tool abouts to not do that, and here's my
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: friend that we're talking through it so that I won't
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: do that again.
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: And just to have a different narrative from a woman
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: in her fifties who is really looking for that next chapter,
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: a real chapter, a real.
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: Life, and you know I am.
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: I am very open to being in that being, you know, being.
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: In that arena of looking because I've put in the work.
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: It's not like I'm like, oh my god, look at me.
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: I'm on Idport two having the best time ever with

  Speaker 6: my friend Cheryl Burke and Channah, you know, all these
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: different people like I have actually really done the work.
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: And I think that a lot of the listeners are
• 18:45
  Speaker 6: really enjoying just hearing the authenticity from me and hearing
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: you know, it's like there's been a lot of bullshit,
• 18:54
  Speaker 6: and you know, I'm open to talking about that too,
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: not to exploit someone, but just to be like, maybe
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: someone's gonna be like, oh my god, I'm never going
• 19:03
  Speaker 6: to do that.
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: Maybe learning from someone else's.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: Mistake well, the podcast is bringing you to Live in

  Speaker 3: the one dude from the show that's dates some like
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: celebrity or well known person. It always happens there's some
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: rumor they went on a date together. I can't imagine

• 20:29

  Speaker 3: in a fever dream of excitement.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: This is awesome for them, and they're.
• 20:41

  Speaker 5: I really appreciate that. But that's not what I'm you know,
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: I'm I.
• 20:59
  Speaker 6: I I appreciate the enthusiasm, but I'm looking for a
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: real person too.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I get that.
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: Wells is a real person and you're going to meet him,
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: and we're excited to hear about this saga next, especially
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: since he's such a character and like you said, like
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: you do have those commonalities. He's the French guy who
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: definitely wants to he's looking for I feel like a
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: girl like you, Kelly, after all this experience you've had
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: with Bachelor Nation. Now who's more dramatic Bachelor or Housewives.
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: Oh my god, Bachelor is so much more dramatic.
• 21:35
  Speaker 7: Stop so much more.
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: I'm like, there's so much energy.
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: I mean the housewives are like, you know, they just
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: want all they want to do is camera time. But
• 21:44
  Speaker 6: these guys don't want camera time. They're like trying to
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: make friends and they're talking about I mean, there's a
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: whole other show in these bedrooms of these guys talking
• 21:52
  Speaker 6: and I'm sure you actually with all your all your friends.
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: Like I'm like, wait a minute, behind the scenes of
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: Bachelor Nation is like wild and so fun.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: One thing too, as I have to say, is that
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: I have met so many nice, genuine people from Bachelor Nation,
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: Like I just really have enjoyed meeting all of you
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: guys and like spending time with you and like learning
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: from you, and it's been great.
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: I mean I really really love it. I mean housewives
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: are fire.
• 22:21
  Speaker 6: They were literally like claw your eyes out. Yeah, I
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: don't think bed with clawning one's eyes out.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: No, it doesn't necessarily match something I'm into, but you
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: never know. Things are changing in my life. I will
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: say Live of the Vineyard is one of the coolest
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: events of the year. It's romantic, it's beautiful, it's intimate.
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: The music coming out of there and through there is
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: something that is still memorable to me to this day.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: So it is a great place to go on a date.
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: I'm glad you're going on this day. I think it's fun.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: I also just am glad you said it earlier. Before
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: we close out here, I want to tell you, I
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: think it's a really special thing for you to be
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: going through therapy and also speaking on a show about
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: the thing you're going through therapy for. I know that
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: people listening are going to benefit from it, relate with it,
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: heal a little bit from it, probably cry with you
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: a little bit. And I just for me, that's when,
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: like this podcast medium becomes its best when it's authentic,
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: raw and real and so Kelly from us. It's almost
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: in his podcast to the I do Part two, listeners,
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: thank you for being vulnerable and open about this experience.
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: And here's where I hope it leads, if nothing else,
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: to some really great moments. And I hope you maybe
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: like have a little more pep in your step knowing
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: that there is a bunch of dudes on some textra
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: ad somewhere being like, are you kidding me? You're gonna
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: get to go on a date with her? Like that
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: feels good?
• 23:53
  Speaker 7: Hey, Kelly, I'm.
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: Gonna say I have to admit, yes, it does feel good. Yeah,
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: it feels good to feel good. Yes.
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: And I like to end with this because when we
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: started this podcast seven eight years ago, Ben and I
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: were bill single and they were always trying to like
• 24:08

• 24:18
  Speaker 4: That's like maybe like a little realistic, so like don't
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: say Brad Pitt, but like someone we could actually like
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: really get. I mean, you could get Brad, but you
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: know he's dating someone and you know what I mean.
• 24:30
