Speaker 2 (02:29):
Now there you go, and I do that too.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Now before we get into anything outside, one of the
questions for you, you I don't know where it is,
but Susan's from Philly and you're from Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Yep, yep. So I grew up in near Gettysburg, so
a really small town, a lot of mountains, a lot
of farms, a lot of cows and animals. So I
live in Mannheim, which is in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, okay, probably about forty five to fifty minutes from me.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Yeah, so it's like twenty minutes from Leicester City. So
I lived in Lancaster for a little bit, but uh, definitely.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
And then just one more question. People can't see what
you have on an Oriels. Who is is that the
Baltimore Orioles?
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Yes, it is a little different Philadelphia, So how do
you explain that's.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Pennsylvan where I grew up is like five minutes from
the Maryland border. My dad's like.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
I failed geography.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Pittsburgh is Pittsburgh, but the Steelers not A big Steelers fan.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
An Eagles fan, Ravens. I was happy though for the
Eagles up.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Yes I have.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
I have a lot of friends or Eagles fans, and
you know the stigma around the Eagles fans. I put
that aside. This this playoff, there's scary.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
It's good and you know they greased the polls, like
what is going to fall this time?
Speaker 2 (03:53):
They try?
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Okay, other than following your favorite sports teams and collecting albums.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Let's go on your wall.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Don't s going on your life? Tell us what are
you doing? Dating? Living, working? You know, give us the rundown,
just hanging out?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
You know. Working. So I work as a I'm working

mechanical solutions company, Industrial solutions. So we do like anything metal,
a lot of well, there's a lot of machine showing.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
So are you like the Osha person that makes sure
my son does that?
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Really? Yeah? Exactly, Yes, that's what I'm to school for.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
He does it for a company here in Austin.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Oh. He sounds like a good guy.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
My son's a great because you have the same job, that's.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
What you have to adore being the safety guy. It's
tough out there. You don't get a lot of friends
easily that way when you know what to tell you.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
What's what's different since coming off the show.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
A little more attention, you know, I'm I like to
consider myself a pretty private guy. And now when I
go out and it's just it's cool. Though I can't
I get's it's fun, especially if I got my friends
with me, ye, go out something and seeing people who
watch the show, it's like very huge fan bases. I'm
sure you got.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
How long did you stay on the show?
Speaker 2 (05:06):
A day?
Speaker 4 (05:10):
How did you feel? When can I even ask that?
How did you feel.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
When I got sent home?
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Yeah, it was it was like.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Ripping a band aid off. So it wasn't it wasn't
too bad. I think it happened so quick that it was. Yeah.
I mean, you guys knew the experience. It's a little
out of the norm. So and definitely like a again,
I've never I've flown like twice before going out there,
So going across the country and just yeah, you know,
(05:37):
and and I don't like to fly now I've gotten
over it though, going across the country definitely helped. But
and then as soon as it gets sent home right
away and I come back and just like all right,
let's let's calm down, and I pick up my phone
and it's blowing up. Oh yeah. I'm like, oh my god.
I thought it would be quiet. I could just kind
of continue going on with life. And and then uh.
(05:59):
I Actually the first thing I did. I flew into Baltimore.
My parents picked me up in the morning and we
were like, well, let's go get some lunch and get
a beer. It was a Saturday, and I had a
fishing rod in my in my back seat and it
was stuck to like a weighted vest if you know
what I mean, like a running vet, and it was
an eighty pound vest. And I was like whatever, I'm
(06:19):
just gonna move both of these. And when I moved
the vest, they're the fishing hook. It was like a
three punt stuck into my leg and sitting there for
twenty minutes, like deep in my leg. I mean my parents.
I'm yelling at my parents back and forth because there's
the poking my leg and eventually got to clicked out
and I went to the emergency room. Oh and it
stuck inside of my leg I couldn't pull it out.
(06:40):
And then it was just when they announced the potential cast.
So and especially being from a small town. I'm sitting
in the emergency room a couple of days after they
announced the cast, and then this girl's just kind of
looking at me, the nurse, and I'm like, and my
mom said, she looked across, and then people looking at
their phones and looking at me. Right, I get back
(07:00):
there and she's like, you're the guy that could be
any I don't know what you're talking about. I could
be You're definitely the guy. And I'm like, who's asking? Right?
And thankfully I had a friend who works there, she
was a nurse, and she came back. She's like, I
told him all to leave you alone.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
They were talking about, so where do you live now Manheim, Pennsylvania?
But I grew up in near Gettysburgh.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
Okay, okay, and your family where do your parents live?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Still in near Gettysburg. She's like the biggest Bachelor Nation
fan now, so yeah, she's she's she was at first
she wasn't when I told her potentially be going on,
she was like and then eventually she like really got
deep into it, and.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
She's like she.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Might have. I think she did. She's she's she's a
reality TV fan at heart anyway, so.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Yeah, I think she's watch all Right, Well, we're gonna
we're gonna.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Be asking you some questions.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
We're gonna dig a little deeper.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
So bad tor Nation can get to know you better
and they can get some of your fabulous advice. But first,
the first thing we do is start with a question
of the day, Susan, go.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
For it, and that is, what do you think is
the most important thing about yourself to showcase on a
first date?
Speaker 2 (08:21):
HM. For me, it's definitely a sense of humor. And
that's always I feel like a cop out when I
say that, but it's a big thing for me because
I'm always firing off jokes and I think I need
someone to laugh at it and you know, to give
me some validation there. But I'd say a sense of
humor just because it can show how unserious somebody can be,
especially in a first date. That's nerves are high on
(08:43):
those like you try. I try to go in pretty calm,
but if you care about it, you're gonna be nervous anyway.
I like anything you care about you're gonna be nervous for.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
The gift of laughter is the best that makes it
more comfortable. Once you get it out, you know, and
you laugh together, then it's easy.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
You get the nerves down. And especially and that you
can be unserious in a pretty serious situations too, because
life is always going to be super serious no matter
what you do, things are going to go wrong. And
having the ability to, like, well, I do you have
to be angry about stuff all the time, and that.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
What impresses you on a first date. I'm sorry, Kathy,
that's a good question.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Oh, probably the same thing, but I mean just someone.
I like to see someone who's caring at first you know.
That's a big thing for me.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Is just someone they're caring though first dates.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
That's a good question. That's tough.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
I can't answer that. If they ask questions about you, yeah,
that's true.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
They seem interested.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Yes, men have to work on that a little bit,
answering que asking questions back. I've been getting good at
like putting that them.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Let me tell you, yeah, you should, because that's one
of our pet peeves.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
That's yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I think the main thing is, like I'm just trying
to advertise myself to impress the girl, Hey, that doesn't work.
Going to let them do the same thing back a
little bit, you.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Know, Kathy and I are thinking about doing the business.
I'm serious. I wonder how many men would sign up
that we could school them on how to take a
selfie and what not to do and what to do
on a first day, on the first the conversation you
always to ask.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Some kind of you if you asked me out on
a date, which you know would be insane, but let's
just play this game for a minute. Actually, if you
and I went out on a date and all you
did was quote unquote market yourself to me, so I'd
be thinking all this guy does is talk about himself.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I'm out right yeah, because it seems just self centered.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
And then and then you school somebody and they ask
too many questions and then you're like, whoa, back off?
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Yeah, and whatever you do, Brett, if you're if you're
on social media, if you're on dating apps, please please Brett,
do not We're going to give you the free advice.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
I'm not even going to charge you. No dead fish keep.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Just do not do not hold a dead fish in
one hand. And you're you know, your naked body and
even if it was the trophy fish just I know.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
And it's like because you know, like only the guys
will see that and be like hell.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah and the guys and the guys guy, and then
we're going to have a whole other conversation here.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Yeah, that is what it is.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
But so you you I read up a little bit
on you, and you are a funny guy. The fact
that you shaved your eyebrows off when you were a kid,
let me just let me assure you they've completely grown back.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
You have got no problem there.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
But the the other thing that I somebody asked you
about Paradise. So the first question I have to ask
you is would you go to Paradise?
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Yeah? I mean at this point, yeah, I mean I'm
pretty free. So and and they said, uh, I finally
caught up and watched a couple of episodes. Yeah, Beer
and swim Trunks.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
And you said, I you said, Barren swim truck, swim
Trunks all you need for Batsman parents. So that's all
you need is Barren swim Trunks. Who who do you
want to see there?
Speaker 2 (12:14):
There's so many like I well, if you guys have
talked to Hakeem, Yeah, I love if He asked this
question all the time. Sometimes he'll call me and just
you know, we'll talk about this, and he's big on
like putting it out there, and I love that's good
for him. And I kind of answered him the one time.
It's like, whoever's there, Like I don't want to single
(12:35):
anybody out for the reason of, like you know, I
just want to let things naturally happen. But there's also
from the point of you can't do any wrong if
with anybody that goes there.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
It's about a chemistry though.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
And and but they're like I was like, if I'm
lucky to come off that beach with anybody, I'm thinking
I'm doing pretty dang well.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
So tell me. Have your d MS blown up, like
are more forward? I feel?
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Yeah? They did. They did. They definitely blew up, Like
especially after it aired, like it was an influx.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Did you go out with any of them?
Speaker 2 (13:12):
No? Why? It was weird. It was a weird time
for me because it's like there was from just calm
and normal to having all this attention at one time,
and I really didn't know how to handle that. So
I'm like, I'm just going to sit back and let
things kind of the bullets fly by and figure it
out later.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
We're checking our d ms every day. We got we.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Got, we got thirty year olds who wanted to day.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
I'm sure.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Yeah, I'm not dating anybody now, No, not at all. Well,
so it sounds like paradise would be perfect.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Are you pick?
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Is that one? No?
Speaker 2 (13:49):
I would say I'm picky, but I think everybody is.
But yeah, I'm picking the sense where like, uh, if
I try to dial my type down, it's kind of difficult.
Like I do have a weakness or a tall brunette woman.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
I just did well season.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Drinking, barking up the right tree. But but I also
am like, well sixty three. Oh see, yeah, but all
the other guys this season were way taller. There's so
many tall guys this season on Gen season yea, yeah,
it was awful. I thought I'd be the tall guy.
I walk in there and there's like six five.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Same with I can tell you Jones season on the
Golden Bouts are atte same thing with her.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
The guys are giants.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
It's crazy. They're picking some prospects out. It's nice.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Yeah, as someone who's five eight, I appreciate the hype.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
That's a good height. Too.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Yeah, yeah, drink right.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It's awful. It's awful. It's awful. So you used to
play football in college?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Tell us where'd you go to college? I went to
Millersville University in the in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
What did you like being in playing football? Did you
like that?
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
I loved it, So I did. Athletics was always a
big part of me growing up. So I started baseball
when I was five, and wrestling and football when I
was seven, and just that was always the thing. So
my dad was a big football fan.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
And just do you feel like like people are intimidated
by your size? Like you're an athlete, you're a big,
strong guy.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Sometimes I think so, Like I'll notice if like I'm
out at the bar or something with my friends and
someone accidentally pours a drink on me or knocks my
drink out of my hand and they're like, oh my god,
I'm just kidding.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
Hey, let me get you another beer.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I'm really sorry, I'm going and I'm sorry something like
you're fine, I'm not going to do anything.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
It's if I did. Yeah, there's some times there's some intimidation, but.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
So beer's your a choice I'm hearing.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
I do enjoy a good beer. But what's your favorite beer? Yeah,
a cold one. I think it has to be cold Miller.
I've been drinking quite a bit of a million.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Oh you're not into the bougie beers, then I don't
like the boogie beers either.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
I don't. I like. I'll get a boogie coffee once
in a while, but bi beer, I mean crap beers. Okay,
you just can't drink a lot.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
It hurts a corona with some lime. But I like
the little seven ouncers. Oh yeah, stay cold all the
way down.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
And the good line. I like a good line like
I like a good U vokuesta to that.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
I can't now we're talking, okay, so or tequila and
soda and lime A wine girl, you know what I'm
I've been on tequila for like the last year, but
I'm just now going back to vodka again, all right.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
I like in Minnesota. I don't like foka straight. I
don't like tequila straight that much, like whiskey.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
What is your background? Like your family heritage?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Uh, German, Irish and Scottish.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
And they were just in Scotland.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
How was it? Oh? They were I was watched.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
I live in Scotland. It is beautiful.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
I really want to go Scotland Island.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
I have to make the news to you, Bratt, you
want to go to Scotland. Yeah, you're gonna have to
get on an airplane.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Oh it's a long place.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
My brother lives in Germany. He lives in Hamburg.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
No.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
I actually just talked to him. I talked to him
on the weekend and I asked him because he's been
there for three years now because his girlfriend is German
and she lives over there, so he moved over for
and uh. I was like, Hey, how's the German learning going?
And he's like, I'm just kind of stopped, you know.
He's like he's trying to pick up some but he
said they speak so much English over there that he
just everywhere. He's not a talker anyway, so he's just
(17:43):
just like.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
And he does he understand it yet?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I mean, I think that's what he said. The hardest
part is is to understand it instead of speaking it.
He can get lay what he wants, but when he
hears it back, he's.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Just no clue what they're saying.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
Yeah, okay, so I have to ask you a question Brett.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
You wouldn't know this, but back in the day, I
was a much bigger person than I am now.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
I was.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
I pushed the scales like two hundred pounds. I was
a big girl. And you are a football player and
you're a guy. And but I think Bachelor Nation people
were really happy to see the diversity.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
What is that?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (18:19):
What was the experience like, and what's the response been?
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Like?
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Yeah, that was interesting, you know, but I don't fit
the normal mold. I knew that going into it. I
even kind of said everybody like, hey, I'm I'm an
offensive lineman. And we got a lot of receivers and
running back and quarterbacks on the show. You know, my
point guards from there with me bitches, right, there's a
(18:44):
lot of attention from that. It didn't really bother me though.
I mean, I've always been a large guy, so you know,
I'm like going to the gym and lifting heavy things
that a lot of people can't do. So but yeah,
you had a lot of attention for that.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
But positive I'm hoping though, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
For the most part. Yeah, yeah, I mean there's there's
people gonna arguing over whether I'm like a bodybuilder or not.
A bodybuilder, a powerlifter or something.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Like taking steroids.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
And yeah, well and uh yeah, some people are arguing
over my body type. And I was like, whatever, let
them Mark you were talking about you know what?
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Said? He goes, listen, I don't care. Just pour me
a beer. I really can't.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
That's what I'm like. Just give me another beer and
I'll be good.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
He's got such a kind face, he's so sweet.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
I know you're like a teddy bear.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Okay, I keep that a lot, Yeah, try to keep
I don't because you have a great smile.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
But you have a great smile and an easy demeanor.
That's why thank you. You never know what somebody else's day.
Do one nice thing for somebody to say, one nice
thing a day, You don't know what kind of day
that person's having.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Right, Yeah, my dad kind of pushed that into me
as a kid, just helping, like make friends with someone
you wouldn't normally go out of your way to be
friends with. You never know how. You learn a lot
from that.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
All right, let's get into our fan questions for today. Brett.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
We answer fan questions and we want you to join
in and give some sage advice. I'm gonna read this
question and you're gonna help us dish out the advice. Okay, Okay,
here we go. Anonymous asks, O MG, I need your help.
A year ago, my best friend finally broke up with
(20:30):
her shitty boyfriend that she was with for three years.
For context, we're both twenty six now. She still is
yet to even remotely move on, and it's finally gotten
to a point where I need to seriously step in.
I let her grieve the relationship they broke up because
he cheated and heal for the first six months. It's
one thing to not really want a serious relationship, but
(20:53):
she wanted to explore the.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Idea of someone else.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
I'm honestly worried because I don't want her to think
about going back to him is even an option. How
do I help her get back out there and at
least get comfortable with dating and keeping her eyes open.
I don't want to rush her, but I feel like
if I let her, she'll never get back out there.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Wow, and it's way past six months.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
Do you want us to give her your phone number?
Speaker 2 (21:20):
I guess so. I mean I as couch her through this.
You know, you know, as your friend, you got to
be a good friend and yeah, and that is okay,
there we go.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
How old are you brat?
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (21:32):
How old are you?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Brett twenty nine?
Speaker 4 (21:34):
Oh she's twenty six, let me go her call me
all right.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
No, she's being a good friend by reaching out and help.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
She wants some help. What does she do?
Speaker 1 (21:43):
What would you do?
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Yeah? I think it's very tough. She said they dated
for three years.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
Yeah, and then he cheated on her. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Yeah, it's a delicate it's a fine line there because
you know, it's a delicate situation where you're like, I
haven't been in those shoes before, but I've that happen.
And first off, can I swear yes, yes, fuss that guy?
Speaker 1 (22:05):
I say it all the time.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
And you but you got to tell your friendly fuck him.
And but you have to be delicate because there's a
three year situation. Relationship's six months. Yeah, I know, but
it's like people, Yeah, it's you gotta be tough love,
but be comforting after that, you know, like, hey, just
lay it all out there. You don't have to be
(22:28):
shy about it and just said, look what he did sucks.
You can't go back to him because he's just gonna
use that again, he already portrayed you once. I don't
care if he's changed. He already messed you over once.
We got to find something else, because there's better people
out there who won't do that to your work more
than that, right, I love that.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
I love what you just said.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
But also I would say to my best friend, I
would say, you know, line here and and moping and
just feeling horrible, do you realize you're giving away all
your power to him? He doesn't deserve it, He doesn't
deserve your bright light. That you're letting him extinguish your bread, like,
don't let him do that.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Like and also anonymous, you're saying I don't want to
rush her. You are not rushing her. Six months, six months,
plenty of time to mourn. Now it's time to take
the first step.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Yeah, yeah, that's a hard one. But here, hey, at
least go on one shitty date where the guy doesn't
ask you any questions and like that, and then you'll
be like, all right, now.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
See that's the problem she.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
I'm guessing it's funny you said that, Bratt, because I'm
guessing she thought this was her guy.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
There.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
She already had picked out her wedding gown and what
style engagement.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
She's crushed.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
She's crushed, and so exactly what you're saying, she's probably
exactly saying. That's, oh, you know, I don't want to
go back out. Their men are shit. You know, they lie,
they cheap, they steal. You know, I don't want a
shitty date. That's probably exactly what she's right.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
And that's a weird age too, like twenty three to
twenty six. It's like you just left college. You're probably like, well,
I got I got my guy now and we're gonna yeah, yeah,
but you don't realize it's like twenty six is a
great agent there. I'm only three years removed from it,
but she was out there.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
She's gonna start loving herself again and not blaming herself.
And know how shallow that asshole is.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Oh yeah, fuck, that guy sent his address and.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I would just hope that that guy it happens to him.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
They never take him, does it?
Speaker 4 (24:32):
You think it does? Brad?
Speaker 2 (24:33):
I feel like yeah, I mean uh, I feel like,
especially because the kind of people you attract doing that
kind of stuff, that if someone's openly willing to do
that with you, I mean, who knows if I don't.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
I think exactly the opposite.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
I think I don't know where this is coming from,
but I just feel like men who cheat typically have
really nice, decent girlfriends and and that's who they pick
because they want to be cared for and taken care of,
and they then they're gonna cheat on them. It's the
bitchy girls who guys don't. I mean, I don't know
if I'm right or wrong.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
It just feels might make sense. Yeah, it does seem
to happen to the girls.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Would be like I'm going to flick you like a
flying out of here.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Yeah, the bitchy girls. Would you know? He wouldn't dare
do it. He wouldn't dare. So is the lessener to
be a bit if you're a girl, I guess.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
So you got to have a little bit of my mom.
My mom is very sweet and I love her to death.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
She's got it in her.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Oh yeah, she's got a little bit. I mean I've
seen her when she has to be the top dog,
and yeah are women.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Yeah, I mean, if you guys would just learn to
follow the leader, us being the leaders, right.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
We'll get a fall line and then life will be easier.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Oh god, alright, all right, all right, we got it
all right.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Now we're gonna play a little game. We're gonna ask
some fun questions. And this is so the listeners will
really get to know you. What would be the name
of your autobiography?
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Dumb luck? I like it?
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Why tell me why?
Speaker 1 (26:12):
You know?
Speaker 2 (26:12):
I just find myself in pretty decent situations here for
no good reasons.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
So I think it's a lot of your attitude towards life.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
How it does help, you know? Yeah? So I try to,
like I said, give out some kindness, but I get
rewarded here and there. Like I just found myself on
the Bachelorette when I wasn't even searching for that. So
how did you get on that? My best friend so
him and his wife watch it religiously, like all all
every season, And one day he asked me for a
(26:40):
picture and my email, and I he did, he just
submitted me and then you know, I completely forgot about it.
And then one day, you know, I get a call.
I'm like, the hell is this? And then were you mad? No?
I just thought I completely forgotten. I was laughing because
I'm like, I can't believe that this is.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
You don't regret doing it.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
No, not at all.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
No, All right, who would I think I know the
answer to this question. But who is someone that inspires you?
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Uh yeah, probably my parents. Both of them do a
good job. But I just looking back, my dad taught me,
has taught me, and I make fun of him for
a lot of stupid lessons in my life that I
think when I was watching football games with him, he
would just look over and I was like five to seven,
and he would say something it would stick in my brain.
Now I've usedless information. So you're talking a lot of
(27:33):
good lessons. And my mom taught me you can be
kind and still be a bitch Yep, And.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Wait what, I want to know, what's what's one of
the best lessons your dad taught you.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
One of the good ones was just kind of, like
like I said earlier, being kind of people because you
never know the effect it's going to have, kind of
going out of your way to be friends with people
maybe that are having a tough time and you know,
like maybe someone that would be considered a nerd or
a band kid, or maybe they are really into academics
(28:03):
or they're just getting bullied a lot. Yeah, you know,
being an athletic, so it was in a small school,
so I got to rub shoulders with a lot of people.
But just I think the biggest thing for me coming
off the show was seeing comments from people that I
knew and maybe wouldn't consider a friend but acquaintances or
rubbed shoulders with and knew them briefly and saying nice
things about me. It's like, oh, it made me realize
(28:26):
how just being kind to someone in a small moment
the first.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
And they don't have to Okay, wait, did you ever
get in trouble? Did your dad ever have to like
discipline you?
Speaker 4 (28:36):
Your mom?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
I was a dickad when I was a kid. What
you didn't give me? Example, didn't clean your eyebrows off?
Speaker 1 (28:45):
So you know, you know did you do that? Oh?
Speaker 2 (28:49):
It was I was in fifth grade and it was
the day before picture day, which is oh my god.
And uh So we lived in an a frame house
in the mountains, so we had one one bathroom and
that was my parents. And the night before, like I
was like, I just thought, for whatever reason, I had
a unibrow and I didn't. But I didn't know how
to shave, so I just threw shaving cream all over
my forehead and just started going at it, and then
(29:12):
I realized I nicked like too far on this side,
So then I tried to even it out until I
had like made it look really weird, all look bad
and and uh.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
Did you cry?
Speaker 2 (29:23):
She didn't see me right away. I hit it that
night and I went I went to school thinking no
one would notice, and everybody was like, what is wrong?
What is wrong with your face? I have my hood up.
And I remember crying during the day because I were
like all my friends were like, what an idiot? What
are you doing?
Speaker 3 (29:38):
You do?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
And I came back and I thought I thought my
dad would be just pissed at me. He asked, oh,
he laughed. I started crying in front of him because
he was laughing his ass off at me. He just
took me for a walk. We went we went to
the park and he was just talking. He was like,
buddy will grow back in a couple couple of weeks.
And my mom thought it was hilarious and she we've
(30:00):
got student ideas then, and she kept it. She hasn't heard.
I would definitely love it would.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Be a big picture in the house.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
I mean, oh, that is so good.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Okay, what is your idea of a dream vacation.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Anywhere he doesn't have to get on an airplane teleport.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
I can teleport. How about a boat.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Do you like cruising?
Speaker 2 (30:23):
I don't know. No, I don't either. I don't like
boats either. I like boats on a lake. So me
and my friends go to, uh if you're familiar with
the Poconos, Yeah, in Pennsylvania, So we go up there
once a year. I've got two separate friend groups, so
we do that. So those are.

the world. You want to go to the mountains and
the Boconos in your hometown the same state.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
I'm not really into pop country. I'm okay with it.
It gets the job done, you know, if you're drinking
a beer or something. But I do like Luke Combs.

look like him, And I don't.

a really small town, a lot of mountains, a lot
of farms, a lot of cows and animals. So I
live in Mannheim, which is in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, okay, probably about forty five to fifty minutes from me.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Yeah, so it's like twenty minutes from Leicester City. So
I lived in Lancaster for a little bit, but uh, definitely.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
And then just one more question. People can't see what
you have on an Oriels. Who is is that the
Baltimore Orioles?
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Yes, it is a little different Philadelphia, So how do
you explain that's.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Pennsylvan where I grew up is like five minutes from
the Maryland border. My dad's like.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
I failed geography.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Pittsburgh is Pittsburgh, but the Steelers not A big Steelers fan.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
An Eagles fan, Ravens. I was happy though for the
Eagles up.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Yes I have.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
I have a lot of friends or Eagles fans, and
you know the stigma around the Eagles fans. I put
that aside. This this playoff, there's scary.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
It's good and you know they greased the polls, like
what is going to fall this time?
Speaker 2 (03:53):
They try?
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Okay, other than following your favorite sports teams and collecting albums.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Let's go on your wall.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Don't s going on your life? Tell us what are
you doing? Dating? Living, working? You know, give us the rundown,
just hanging out?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
You know. Working. So I work as a I'm working
a little bit of HR and and safety for a
mechanical solutions company, Industrial solutions. So we do like anything metal,
a lot of well, there's a lot of machine showing.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
So are you like the Osha person that makes sure
my son does that?
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Really? Yeah? Exactly, Yes, that's what I'm to school for.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
He does it for a company here in Austin.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Oh. He sounds like a good guy.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
My son's a great because you have the same job, that's.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
What you have to adore being the safety guy. It's
tough out there. You don't get a lot of friends
easily that way when you know what to tell you.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
What's what's different since coming off the show.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
A little more attention, you know, I'm I like to
consider myself a pretty private guy. And now when I
go out and it's just it's cool. Though I can't
I get's it's fun, especially if I got my friends
with me, ye, go out something and seeing people who
watch the show, it's like very huge fan bases. I'm
sure you got.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
How long did you stay on the show?
Speaker 2 (05:06):
A day?
Speaker 4 (05:10):
How did you feel? When can I even ask that?
How did you feel.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
When I got sent home?
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Yeah, it was it was like.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Ripping a band aid off. So it wasn't it wasn't
too bad. I think it happened so quick that it was. Yeah.
I mean, you guys knew the experience. It's a little
out of the norm. So and definitely like a again,
I've never I've flown like twice before going out there,
So going across the country and just yeah, you know,
(05:37):
and and I don't like to fly now I've gotten
over it though, going across the country definitely helped. But
and then as soon as it gets sent home right
away and I come back and just like all right,
let's let's calm down, and I pick up my phone
and it's blowing up. Oh yeah. I'm like, oh my god.
I thought it would be quiet. I could just kind
of continue going on with life. And and then uh.
(05:59):
I Actually the first thing I did. I flew into Baltimore.
My parents picked me up in the morning and we
were like, well, let's go get some lunch and get
a beer. It was a Saturday, and I had a
fishing rod in my in my back seat and it
was stuck to like a weighted vest if you know
what I mean, like a running vet, and it was
an eighty pound vest. And I was like whatever, I'm
(06:19):
just gonna move both of these. And when I moved
the vest, they're the fishing hook. It was like a
three punt stuck into my leg and sitting there for
twenty minutes, like deep in my leg. I mean my parents.
I'm yelling at my parents back and forth because there's
the poking my leg and eventually got to clicked out
and I went to the emergency room. Oh and it
stuck inside of my leg I couldn't pull it out.
(06:40):
And then it was just when they announced the potential cast.
So and especially being from a small town. I'm sitting
in the emergency room a couple of days after they
announced the cast, and then this girl's just kind of
looking at me, the nurse, and I'm like, and my
mom said, she looked across, and then people looking at
their phones and looking at me. Right, I get back
(07:00):
there and she's like, you're the guy that could be
any I don't know what you're talking about. I could
be You're definitely the guy. And I'm like, who's asking? Right?
And thankfully I had a friend who works there, she
was a nurse, and she came back. She's like, I
told him all to leave you alone.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
They were talking about, so where do you live now Manheim, Pennsylvania?
But I grew up in near Gettysburgh.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
Okay, okay, and your family where do your parents live?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Still in near Gettysburg. She's like the biggest Bachelor Nation
fan now, so yeah, she's she's she was at first
she wasn't when I told her potentially be going on,
she was like and then eventually she like really got
deep into it, and.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
She's like she.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Might have. I think she did. She's she's she's a
reality TV fan at heart anyway, so.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Yeah, I think she's watch all Right, Well, we're gonna
we're gonna.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Be asking you some questions.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
We're gonna dig a little deeper.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
So bad tor Nation can get to know you better
and they can get some of your fabulous advice. But first,
the first thing we do is start with a question
of the day, Susan, go.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
For it, and that is, what do you think is
the most important thing about yourself to showcase on a
first date?
Speaker 2 (08:21):
HM. For me, it's definitely a sense of humor. And
that's always I feel like a cop out when I
say that, but it's a big thing for me because
I'm always firing off jokes and I think I need
someone to laugh at it and you know, to give
me some validation there. But I'd say a sense of
humor just because it can show how unserious somebody can be,
especially in a first date. That's nerves are high on
(08:43):
those like you try. I try to go in pretty calm,
but if you care about it, you're gonna be nervous anyway.
I like anything you care about you're gonna be nervous for.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
The gift of laughter is the best that makes it
more comfortable. Once you get it out, you know, and
you laugh together, then it's easy.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
You get the nerves down. And especially and that you
can be unserious in a pretty serious situations too, because
life is always going to be super serious no matter
what you do, things are going to go wrong. And
having the ability to, like, well, I do you have
to be angry about stuff all the time, and that.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
What impresses you on a first date. I'm sorry, Kathy,
that's a good question.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Oh, probably the same thing, but I mean just someone.
I like to see someone who's caring at first you know.
That's a big thing for me.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Is just someone they're caring though first dates.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
That's a good question. That's tough.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
I can't answer that. If they ask questions about you, yeah,
that's true.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
They seem interested.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Yes, men have to work on that a little bit,
answering que asking questions back. I've been getting good at
like putting that them.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Let me tell you, yeah, you should, because that's one
of our pet peeves.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
That's yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I think the main thing is, like I'm just trying
to advertise myself to impress the girl, Hey, that doesn't work.
Going to let them do the same thing back a
little bit, you.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Know, Kathy and I are thinking about doing the business.
I'm serious. I wonder how many men would sign up
that we could school them on how to take a
selfie and what not to do and what to do
on a first day, on the first the conversation you
always to ask.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Some kind of you if you asked me out on
a date, which you know would be insane, but let's
just play this game for a minute. Actually, if you
and I went out on a date and all you
did was quote unquote market yourself to me, so I'd
be thinking all this guy does is talk about himself.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I'm out right yeah, because it seems just self centered.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
And then and then you school somebody and they ask
too many questions and then you're like, whoa, back off?
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Yeah, and whatever you do, Brett, if you're if you're
on social media, if you're on dating apps, please please Brett,
do not We're going to give you the free advice.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
I'm not even going to charge you. No dead fish keep.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Just do not do not hold a dead fish in
one hand. And you're you know, your naked body and
even if it was the trophy fish just I know.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
And it's like because you know, like only the guys
will see that and be like hell.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah and the guys and the guys guy, and then
we're going to have a whole other conversation here.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Yeah, that is what it is.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
But so you you I read up a little bit
on you, and you are a funny guy. The fact
that you shaved your eyebrows off when you were a kid,
let me just let me assure you they've completely grown back.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
You have got no problem there.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
But the the other thing that I somebody asked you
about Paradise. So the first question I have to ask
you is would you go to Paradise?
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Yeah? I mean at this point, yeah, I mean I'm
pretty free. So and and they said, uh, I finally
caught up and watched a couple of episodes. Yeah, Beer
and swim Trunks.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
And you said, I you said, Barren swim truck, swim
Trunks all you need for Batsman parents. So that's all
you need is Barren swim Trunks. Who who do you
want to see there?
Speaker 2 (12:14):
There's so many like I well, if you guys have
talked to Hakeem, Yeah, I love if He asked this
question all the time. Sometimes he'll call me and just
you know, we'll talk about this, and he's big on
like putting it out there, and I love that's good
for him. And I kind of answered him the one time.
It's like, whoever's there, Like I don't want to single
(12:35):
anybody out for the reason of, like you know, I
just want to let things naturally happen. But there's also
from the point of you can't do any wrong if
with anybody that goes there.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
It's about a chemistry though.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
And and but they're like I was like, if I'm
lucky to come off that beach with anybody, I'm thinking
I'm doing pretty dang well.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
So tell me. Have your d MS blown up, like
are more forward? I feel?
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Yeah? They did. They did. They definitely blew up, Like
especially after it aired, like it was an influx.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Did you go out with any of them?
Speaker 2 (13:12):
No? Why? It was weird. It was a weird time
for me because it's like there was from just calm
and normal to having all this attention at one time,
and I really didn't know how to handle that. So
I'm like, I'm just going to sit back and let
things kind of the bullets fly by and figure it
out later.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
We're checking our d ms every day. We got we.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Got, we got thirty year olds who wanted to day.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
I'm sure.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Yeah, I'm not dating anybody now, No, not at all. Well,
so it sounds like paradise would be perfect.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Are you pick?
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Is that one? No?
Speaker 2 (13:49):
I would say I'm picky, but I think everybody is.
But yeah, I'm picking the sense where like, uh, if
I try to dial my type down, it's kind of difficult.
Like I do have a weakness or a tall brunette woman.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
I just did well season.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Drinking, barking up the right tree. But but I also
am like, well sixty three. Oh see, yeah, but all
the other guys this season were way taller. There's so
many tall guys this season on Gen season yea, yeah,
it was awful. I thought I'd be the tall guy.
I walk in there and there's like six five.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Same with I can tell you Jones season on the
Golden Bouts are atte same thing with her.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
The guys are giants.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
It's crazy. They're picking some prospects out. It's nice.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Yeah, as someone who's five eight, I appreciate the hype.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
That's a good height. Too.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Yeah, yeah, drink right.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It's awful. It's awful. It's awful. So you used to
play football in college?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Tell us where'd you go to college? I went to
Millersville University in the in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
What did you like being in playing football? Did you
like that?
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
I loved it, So I did. Athletics was always a
big part of me growing up. So I started baseball
when I was five, and wrestling and football when I
was seven, and just that was always the thing. So
my dad was a big football fan.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
And just do you feel like like people are intimidated
by your size? Like you're an athlete, you're a big,
strong guy.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Sometimes I think so, Like I'll notice if like I'm
out at the bar or something with my friends and
someone accidentally pours a drink on me or knocks my
drink out of my hand and they're like, oh my god,
I'm just kidding.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
Hey, let me get you another beer.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I'm really sorry, I'm going and I'm sorry something like
you're fine, I'm not going to do anything.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
It's if I did. Yeah, there's some times there's some intimidation, but.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
So beer's your a choice I'm hearing.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
I do enjoy a good beer. But what's your favorite beer? Yeah,
a cold one. I think it has to be cold Miller.
I've been drinking quite a bit of a million.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Oh you're not into the bougie beers, then I don't
like the boogie beers either.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
I don't. I like. I'll get a boogie coffee once
in a while, but bi beer, I mean crap beers. Okay,
you just can't drink a lot.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
It hurts a corona with some lime. But I like
the little seven ouncers. Oh yeah, stay cold all the
way down.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
And the good line. I like a good line like
I like a good U vokuesta to that.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
I can't now we're talking, okay, so or tequila and
soda and lime A wine girl, you know what I'm
I've been on tequila for like the last year, but
I'm just now going back to vodka again, all right.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
I like in Minnesota. I don't like foka straight. I
don't like tequila straight that much, like whiskey.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
What is your background? Like your family heritage?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Uh, German, Irish and Scottish.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
And they were just in Scotland.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
How was it? Oh? They were I was watched.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
I live in Scotland. It is beautiful.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
I really want to go Scotland Island.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
I have to make the news to you, Bratt, you
want to go to Scotland. Yeah, you're gonna have to
get on an airplane.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Oh it's a long place.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
My brother lives in Germany. He lives in Hamburg.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
No.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
I actually just talked to him. I talked to him
on the weekend and I asked him because he's been
there for three years now because his girlfriend is German
and she lives over there, so he moved over for
and uh. I was like, Hey, how's the German learning going?
And he's like, I'm just kind of stopped, you know.
He's like he's trying to pick up some but he
said they speak so much English over there that he
just everywhere. He's not a talker anyway, so he's just
(17:43):
just like.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
And he does he understand it yet?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I mean, I think that's what he said. The hardest
part is is to understand it instead of speaking it.
He can get lay what he wants, but when he
hears it back, he's.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Just no clue what they're saying.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
Yeah, okay, so I have to ask you a question Brett.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
You wouldn't know this, but back in the day, I
was a much bigger person than I am now.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
I was.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
I pushed the scales like two hundred pounds. I was
a big girl. And you are a football player and
you're a guy. And but I think Bachelor Nation people
were really happy to see the diversity.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
What is that?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (18:19):
What was the experience like, and what's the response been?
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Like?
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Yeah, that was interesting, you know, but I don't fit
the normal mold. I knew that going into it. I
even kind of said everybody like, hey, I'm I'm an
offensive lineman. And we got a lot of receivers and
running back and quarterbacks on the show. You know, my
point guards from there with me bitches, right, there's a
(18:44):
lot of attention from that. It didn't really bother me though.
I mean, I've always been a large guy, so you know,
I'm like going to the gym and lifting heavy things
that a lot of people can't do. So but yeah,
you had a lot of attention for that.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
But positive I'm hoping though, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
For the most part. Yeah, yeah, I mean there's there's
people gonna arguing over whether I'm like a bodybuilder or not.
A bodybuilder, a powerlifter or something.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Like taking steroids.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
And yeah, well and uh yeah, some people are arguing
over my body type. And I was like, whatever, let
them Mark you were talking about you know what?
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Said? He goes, listen, I don't care. Just pour me
a beer. I really can't.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
That's what I'm like. Just give me another beer and
I'll be good.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
He's got such a kind face, he's so sweet.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
I know you're like a teddy bear.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Okay, I keep that a lot, Yeah, try to keep
I don't because you have a great smile.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
But you have a great smile and an easy demeanor.
That's why thank you. You never know what somebody else's day.
Do one nice thing for somebody to say, one nice
thing a day, You don't know what kind of day
that person's having.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Right, Yeah, my dad kind of pushed that into me
as a kid, just helping, like make friends with someone
you wouldn't normally go out of your way to be
friends with. You never know how. You learn a lot
from that.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
All right, let's get into our fan questions for today. Brett.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
We answer fan questions and we want you to join
in and give some sage advice. I'm gonna read this
question and you're gonna help us dish out the advice. Okay, Okay,
here we go. Anonymous asks, O MG, I need your help.
A year ago, my best friend finally broke up with
(20:30):
her shitty boyfriend that she was with for three years.
For context, we're both twenty six now. She still is
yet to even remotely move on, and it's finally gotten
to a point where I need to seriously step in.
I let her grieve the relationship they broke up because
he cheated and heal for the first six months. It's
one thing to not really want a serious relationship, but
(20:53):
she wanted to explore the.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Idea of someone else.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
I'm honestly worried because I don't want her to think
about going back to him is even an option. How
do I help her get back out there and at
least get comfortable with dating and keeping her eyes open.
I don't want to rush her, but I feel like
if I let her, she'll never get back out there.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Wow, and it's way past six months.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
Do you want us to give her your phone number?
Speaker 2 (21:20):
I guess so. I mean I as couch her through this.
You know, you know, as your friend, you got to
be a good friend and yeah, and that is okay,
there we go.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
How old are you brat?
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (21:32):
How old are you?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Brett twenty nine?
Speaker 4 (21:34):
Oh she's twenty six, let me go her call me
all right.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
No, she's being a good friend by reaching out and help.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
She wants some help. What does she do?
Speaker 1 (21:43):
What would you do?
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Yeah? I think it's very tough. She said they dated
for three years.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
Yeah, and then he cheated on her. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Yeah, it's a delicate it's a fine line there because
you know, it's a delicate situation where you're like, I
haven't been in those shoes before, but I've that happen.
And first off, can I swear yes, yes, fuss that guy?
Speaker 1 (22:05):
I say it all the time.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
And you but you got to tell your friendly fuck him.
And but you have to be delicate because there's a
three year situation. Relationship's six months. Yeah, I know, but
it's like people, Yeah, it's you gotta be tough love,
but be comforting after that, you know, like, hey, just
lay it all out there. You don't have to be
(22:28):
shy about it and just said, look what he did sucks.
You can't go back to him because he's just gonna
use that again, he already portrayed you once. I don't
care if he's changed. He already messed you over once.
We got to find something else, because there's better people
out there who won't do that to your work more
than that, right, I love that.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
I love what you just said.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
But also I would say to my best friend, I
would say, you know, line here and and moping and
just feeling horrible, do you realize you're giving away all
your power to him? He doesn't deserve it, He doesn't
deserve your bright light. That you're letting him extinguish your bread, like,
don't let him do that.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Like and also anonymous, you're saying I don't want to
rush her. You are not rushing her. Six months, six months,
plenty of time to mourn. Now it's time to take
the first step.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Yeah, yeah, that's a hard one. But here, hey, at
least go on one shitty date where the guy doesn't
ask you any questions and like that, and then you'll
be like, all right, now.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
See that's the problem she.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
I'm guessing it's funny you said that, Bratt, because I'm
guessing she thought this was her guy.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
There.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
She already had picked out her wedding gown and what
style engagement.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
She's crushed.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
She's crushed, and so exactly what you're saying, she's probably
exactly saying. That's, oh, you know, I don't want to
go back out. Their men are shit. You know, they lie,
they cheap, they steal. You know, I don't want a
shitty date. That's probably exactly what she's right.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
And that's a weird age too, like twenty three to
twenty six. It's like you just left college. You're probably like, well,
I got I got my guy now and we're gonna yeah, yeah,
but you don't realize it's like twenty six is a
great agent there. I'm only three years removed from it,
but she was out there.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
She's gonna start loving herself again and not blaming herself.
And know how shallow that asshole is.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Oh yeah, fuck, that guy sent his address and.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I would just hope that that guy it happens to him.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
They never take him, does it?
Speaker 4 (24:32):
You think it does? Brad?
Speaker 2 (24:33):
I feel like yeah, I mean uh, I feel like,
especially because the kind of people you attract doing that
kind of stuff, that if someone's openly willing to do
that with you, I mean, who knows if I don't.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
I think exactly the opposite.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
I think I don't know where this is coming from,
but I just feel like men who cheat typically have
really nice, decent girlfriends and and that's who they pick
because they want to be cared for and taken care of,
and they then they're gonna cheat on them. It's the
bitchy girls who guys don't. I mean, I don't know
if I'm right or wrong.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
It just feels might make sense. Yeah, it does seem
to happen to the girls.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Would be like I'm going to flick you like a
flying out of here.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Yeah, the bitchy girls. Would you know? He wouldn't dare
do it. He wouldn't dare. So is the lessener to
be a bit if you're a girl, I guess.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
So you got to have a little bit of my mom.
My mom is very sweet and I love her to death.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
She's got it in her.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Oh yeah, she's got a little bit. I mean I've
seen her when she has to be the top dog,
and yeah are women.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Yeah, I mean, if you guys would just learn to
follow the leader, us being the leaders, right.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
We'll get a fall line and then life will be easier.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Oh god, alright, all right, all right, we got it
all right.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Now we're gonna play a little game. We're gonna ask
some fun questions. And this is so the listeners will
really get to know you. What would be the name
of your autobiography?
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Dumb luck? I like it?
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Why tell me why?
Speaker 1 (26:12):
You know?
Speaker 2 (26:12):
I just find myself in pretty decent situations here for
no good reasons.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
So I think it's a lot of your attitude towards life.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
How it does help, you know? Yeah? So I try to,
like I said, give out some kindness, but I get
rewarded here and there. Like I just found myself on
the Bachelorette when I wasn't even searching for that. So
how did you get on that? My best friend so
him and his wife watch it religiously, like all all
every season, And one day he asked me for a
(26:40):
picture and my email, and I he did, he just
submitted me and then you know, I completely forgot about it.
And then one day, you know, I get a call.
I'm like, the hell is this? And then were you mad? No?
I just thought I completely forgotten. I was laughing because
I'm like, I can't believe that this is.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
You don't regret doing it.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
No, not at all.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
No, All right, who would I think I know the
answer to this question. But who is someone that inspires you?
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Uh yeah, probably my parents. Both of them do a
good job. But I just looking back, my dad taught me,
has taught me, and I make fun of him for
a lot of stupid lessons in my life that I
think when I was watching football games with him, he
would just look over and I was like five to seven,
and he would say something it would stick in my brain.
Now I've usedless information. So you're talking a lot of
(27:33):
good lessons. And my mom taught me you can be
kind and still be a bitch Yep, And.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Wait what, I want to know, what's what's one of
the best lessons your dad taught you.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
One of the good ones was just kind of, like
like I said earlier, being kind of people because you
never know the effect it's going to have, kind of
going out of your way to be friends with people
maybe that are having a tough time and you know,
like maybe someone that would be considered a nerd or
a band kid, or maybe they are really into academics
(28:03):
or they're just getting bullied a lot. Yeah, you know,
being an athletic, so it was in a small school,
so I got to rub shoulders with a lot of people.
But just I think the biggest thing for me coming
off the show was seeing comments from people that I
knew and maybe wouldn't consider a friend but acquaintances or
rubbed shoulders with and knew them briefly and saying nice
things about me. It's like, oh, it made me realize
(28:26):
how just being kind to someone in a small moment
the first.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
And they don't have to Okay, wait, did you ever
get in trouble? Did your dad ever have to like
discipline you?
Speaker 4 (28:36):
Your mom?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
I was a dickad when I was a kid. What
you didn't give me? Example, didn't clean your eyebrows off?
Speaker 1 (28:45):
So you know, you know did you do that? Oh?
Speaker 2 (28:49):
It was I was in fifth grade and it was
the day before picture day, which is oh my god.
And uh So we lived in an a frame house
in the mountains, so we had one one bathroom and
that was my parents. And the night before, like I
was like, I just thought, for whatever reason, I had
a unibrow and I didn't. But I didn't know how
to shave, so I just threw shaving cream all over
my forehead and just started going at it, and then
(29:12):
I realized I nicked like too far on this side,
So then I tried to even it out until I
had like made it look really weird, all look bad
and and uh.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
Did you cry?
Speaker 2 (29:23):
She didn't see me right away. I hit it that
night and I went I went to school thinking no
one would notice, and everybody was like, what is wrong?
What is wrong with your face? I have my hood up.
And I remember crying during the day because I were
like all my friends were like, what an idiot? What
are you doing?
Speaker 3 (29:38):
You do?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
And I came back and I thought I thought my
dad would be just pissed at me. He asked, oh,
he laughed. I started crying in front of him because
he was laughing his ass off at me. He just
took me for a walk. We went we went to
the park and he was just talking. He was like,
buddy will grow back in a couple couple of weeks.
And my mom thought it was hilarious and she we've
(30:00):
got student ideas then, and she kept it. She hasn't heard.
I would definitely love it would.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Be a big picture in the house.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
I mean, oh, that is so good.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Okay, what is your idea of a dream vacation.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Anywhere he doesn't have to get on an airplane teleport.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
I can teleport. How about a boat.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Do you like cruising?
Speaker 2 (30:23):
I don't know. No, I don't either. I don't like
boats either. I like boats on a lake. So me
and my friends go to, uh if you're familiar with
the Poconos, Yeah, in Pennsylvania, So we go up there
once a year. I've got two separate friend groups, so
we do that. So those are.
