• 0:33
  Speaker 2: together with people outside of your season. Today, we have
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: somebody I've always been super intrigued by for multiple reasons.

  Speaker 2: to be here.
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: You're sporting our brand already, I am. I have had
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: this for years. What is the true story of why
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: you're wearing our T shirt?
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Andrew and I were playing. It was a little bowling
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: ball game outside in the yard, and then he whipped
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: the ball at me. Wind hit my chest. Shirt gone.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: I said, you know what, I'm gonna rock the almost
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: famous scare for the rest of night.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: It's a good workout shirt. You can cut the sleeves
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: out of it if you like a little tight, a
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: little snug, but I'll take it. It's it's one that
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: I don't even own. I saw you, I said, I'm
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: gonna get one. That'd be nice. It probably is my
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: face in the back, doesn't it. Actually no, it doesn't.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Wild Greg, you have had a wild ride through this franchise. Yeah,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: tell me if I'm wrong. My assumption of you has
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: always been this show is not something that you were
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: seeking after.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I don't think it's I wasn't. To
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: be honest with you, I mean I got called uh
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: three times for the show. Twice I turned it down
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: third time. I said it before and I'll say it again.
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: It was on my dad's anniversary. Uh. I was during COVID.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: I was living in New York City working a job
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: I didn't love, and I was just like, screw it. Yeah,
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: you know what bachelor has some sick dates. Let me
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: travel a little bit. I mean it was a bubble season,
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: but we went to New Mexico, and I mean I
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: was single at the time, and I just it was
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: a shot in the dark. My sister ended up submitting
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: me years prior. They called me for Becca kuferin season.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: I was way too young for that, and then Claire's
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: and I was also not ready enough for that, and
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: then uh, Katie's. It was just right timing.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: So like when it comes to you and Katie, let's
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: start there.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you get on this show that you weren't you
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: know they said no to multiple times? Yeah, like why
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: was Katie as the bachelorrette something that you were like,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: this is the one I would go for.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I you never Also, I feel like
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: I don't know about you, but for me, I was
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: never one hundred percent sure that it was kat Katie.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: I mean we were hearing groomors and I was like,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: all right, it's definitely gonna probably be Katie. I was
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: hoping it was gonna be Katie. But I think it
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: was just the place that at least I thought I
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: was in at the time, and I thought that I
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: was in a good enough place. And I also just
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: like kind of just like wanted to take a chance
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: at something and it was exciting to me, and I
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: was just like, you know what, at the end of
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: the day, I could get sent home night one and
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: that's also okay, and like I was fine with that.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree with you because my season of
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: The Bachelor, at I didn't know who the bachelottes were
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: going to be and it was two, so they too.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: I had two that season and that was a wild
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: ride because then they made you choose on night one
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: which one you wanted, you voted, and then one stayed
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: and one went home.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: That's interesting.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: That's so the complaint that like you were never there
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: for the right reasons is one that like, not that
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: you have that complaint, I'm saying in general, like anybody
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: gets the complaint like you weren't there for the bachelorrette,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: It's like, well, no, you didn't really know who it was, right, Yeah,
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Like of course I wasn't maybe there for the bachelors exactly.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: You know, no until you show up.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, you have no idea. I mean, it's just
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: like you know, you're hoping at the end of the day, like, hey,
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: I could have a connection with the person, but you
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: also feel like it's a long shot also because it's
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: hard to envision when you really don't know one hundred
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: percent who the person is.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: And then you went through it and things started to
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: change for you, like feelings started to grow, emotions started
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: to come out, you went through this whole thing. We
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: obviously know how your season the Bachelorette ended, but your
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: story really started post Bachelorette, like where you were a
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: fan favorite, like you.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: Really it depends on who you're asking, I think.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think you listen to the critics more
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: than you hear the like compliments. But I think in general,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: from my perspective as an outsider, like people loved you.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, it's it's nice to know that that you
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: at least took it like that. I mean I felt
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: at least right right out of the show, right out
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: of the gate, not in the beginning to I'm talking
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: about towards the n as soon as I left, I mean,
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: I was it was. It was a scary time, at
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: least for me and at least like I was. It
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: was just like a humbling experience, and I I felt
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: like I was just like a shell of myself during
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: the time. But it I feel like I cracked out
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: of that in the last year or so, so I
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: feel like I'm in a good spot right now. But
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: during it all, it was rough.
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: You felt like the world was like coming at you
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: a little bit.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't say coming at me. It just felt like
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: a lot all at once.
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: Did it affect your personal life.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, without a doubt.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: How did you deal with that?
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Gosh went back to therapy. I mean, I discovered that
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: I had so much to work on, even like post
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: like stuff with like my father and like my family
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: dynamic that I had to work out on my own,
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: you know, my own grief towards him and and you know,
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: sadness towards how I was feeling with my own family dynamic.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: You know, leaving my mom by herself was just a
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: struggle for me, And there was just so much personal
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: things I had to go through that, Like I was
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: figuring out that, like Okay, maybe I wasn't ready for
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: this at the end of the day.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: So I don't know if this question will come off
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: It will probably come off a little intrusive. But without
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: the show, m how would you have confronted those things
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: that obviously were needing to be confronted at some point?
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, just not knowing when they would have been.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: You know, it's tough to say, you know, because in
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: what happened in life and my reality, I mean, it
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: was maximized to put it right into my face and
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: to show me that I needed to continue therapy and
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: continue work on myself. And I mean, hey, it like
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: it took. I mean, I've been off the show fraud.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: I think it's like three years at this point, and uh,
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: I finally feel like I'm in like the healthiest spot since,
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: like my dad got sick.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: But obviously that's I mean, to the viewers who don't
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: know the behind the scenes, don't know the work you're doing,
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: don't know where I think they're going to hear that
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: and be like that's interesting because you obviously are now
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: still single, right, and so you come off a very
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: public breakup, so at some point in this whole thing,
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: you decide to come back on national television and announce
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: a new relationship and walk into that whole path, right, Like,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: how did that even get to the point where you
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: were saying, yeah, I'll go back on TV. Not maybe
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: even like ideally, but just I'm going to go back
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: on television and announce a relationship again, start this whole
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: new journey.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: I mean I was in I was head over eels
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: for I was she uh, and I saw the backglass
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: that she was getting and and knowing what she was
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: about to walk into at that reunion, I mean her
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: and I were having discussions. I really didn't want to
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: go on, but I was also getting every one in
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: my circle was telling me not to. But at the
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: end of the day, like I was like, if we're
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: going to do this, I'm gonna have to stick this
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: out with you, and I just I went out there.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: We kinda went and uh went to the gauntlet and
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: uh took it to the head and uh, I mean
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: it was it was. It was a tough way to
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: start everything for us, but I feel like there was
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: no other way.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: So you went back on television.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Did you feel like the response was similar to your
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: time in the show or did you, like, were you
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: in a different place coming off of that.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: No, I feel like I was in a better spot
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: because I feel like I was. I think that her
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: and I both knew that it was gonna be pretty tough.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: I think my toughest during that time. You know, I
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: said this on Jason's that like it was the toughest
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: bar about it always seeing how it affected her. Yeah,
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: it was, Uh, the world was really hurtful towards her,
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: which sucked in it, and it was it was hard
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: to see.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: I didn't feel and it's been a bit since I
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: saw that interview. I didn't feel like you had a
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: defensive spirit, like it felt like you were very much
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: in this place of no like like her or not,
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: this is where we're at.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I was so content and happy. I
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: mean contense probably, I mean I think intense a good word. Yeah,
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: And I think that her and I both knew that
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: the way we started off, and whether people believed it
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: or not, we knew that that was the truth of
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: it all and we felt certain about it. And that's
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: why I was out there.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like it wasn't as a viewer, I
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: don't think as a for me, as a negative. It
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: is like, no, there's no like defensiveness. Like you're not
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: like reacting to the comments and the questions. You're you're
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: just answering them. Yeah, because it's where you're at in life. Yeah,
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: you're gonna move forward absolutely.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: How long ago was that?
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: Uh? What was that?
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Was that?
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: Two years ago? At this point? I think it was.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: So now you're back out into the world two years
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: ago in a new relationship that ends at some point
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: here along the journey, and you're sitting here with us today. Yeah,
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: do you, like, can you catch us up on where
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: you're at mentally just as a human outside of you know,
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: the ending of that and entering into the new world again.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: You talked about your journey of getting back healthy, confronting
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: some of the things you wanted to or needed to
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: confront that you maybe even know you need to confront.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, where are you at today?
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah? I think that's like the biggest thing is that
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: like a lot of the things you need to confront.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: That's the most frustrating part about it is that you
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: don't maybe don't realize in the moment that you need
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: to confront and like looking back on it all and
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: like I think taking some a step away from dating
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: has been the healthiest thing for me. And it's been
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: what what month is at August? I mean it's been
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: what six months or since seven months since uh her
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: and I have ended at this point, and I haven't
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: been dating, and it's been feeling really good to just
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: worry about myself, focus on myself, and it's I feel
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: just like I'm in a healthy spot.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: I really do.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: And it's felt like this has been needed and I
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: feel good about it all.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Is there anything else you'd like to say about that,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Like just that relationship ending because the public. I mean,
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: you guys kept it a secret, like you did you
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: and then you're entitled to that. Yeah, I don't need
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: to give you an apology for that, like you're titled
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: to however you want to process that. But it ended,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: and everybody was kind of like, you know, the people
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: that celebrate you are like, I don't know.
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: No, I get it, I get it. I mean I
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: think that I think maybe her and I were just
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: a little timid because of how brutal things started with
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: the public. And you know, I again, she's incredible, She's
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: an incredible person. I wish her all good things in life,
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: and there's nothing bad to say. There's nothing bad about
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: how we ended it. We just ended up working out.
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: One of the things to transition here that I've always
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: found impressive with you and a few others, you guys
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: have a group of friends. Yeah, unlike any other season
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: of the show. I have friends for my season. Right,
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: there's a few ID name I'm not going to because
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: I would forget somebody and then I get in trouble
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: for it. But there's a few people I still keep
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: very close ties with. But your friendships from the show
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: are like best friends. They would I've interviewed some of them,
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: and they would fight for you with every word they say.
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they they've got your back. What caused that?
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Was it just right timing, right place, or what kind
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: of cultivated this friendship that we've never seen come out
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: of that seat?
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: Like one season, man, I I really just got lucky
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: with the group of the guys that I was with,
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: And I think being in that in in like a
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: little bubble season helped a lot. We just spent a
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: shit ton of time together where we weren't traveling, where
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: all we had to do was just talk. We saw
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: each other's true sides right off the bat, and I
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: mean those guys are you know, Justin and Andrew Trey
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: are my brothers. I mean, yeah, Andrew and I have
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: helped me through rough times now in life. They've seen
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: me through many seasons of my life now and I
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: consider them family at this point.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: I feel it, man.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, I know you probably don't actively listening to
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: the almost of his podcast, but.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: Listened to a few episodes.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Thank you, buddy. Yeah, it means a lot to me.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: You know, wear you're wearing our brand new issue.
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: Listen to some.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: But I would say interviewing those guys, especially a few
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: months ago when we're in Beverly Hills, like they would.
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: Fight for you.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: I appreciate it.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: They've got every like every word they say, has your bag?
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: So you're now single?

• 14:24
  Speaker 2: bachelors in New York City. That sweet, You haven't dated
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: in seven months? What is outside of romance or even
