Starting point is 00:00:00 This is an IHeart podcast. Guaranteed Human. Hey guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas.
Starting point is 00:00:12 We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it. But, you know, tired and sick. Tired and sick.
Starting point is 00:00:26 Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you. you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guide. Not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends. Me and hilarious guests from Jim Gaffigan to Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer, Streeter Seidel, help an Acapella band with their between songs banter. There's the worst singer in the group. The worst? Yeah. Me. Is there anything to the idea that because you're from Harvard.
Starting point is 00:01:01 You only got in because your parents made a huge donation. The group. The yard birds, right? That's the name. The Harvard Yard's, but they're open. Do you have a name suggestion?
Starting point is 00:01:12 We're open. Since you guys are middle age, one erection. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and friends on the I-Heart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. You love me.
Starting point is 00:01:29 I need some. Some jokes to make me seem funny. Hey, it's Ashanti Plummer from Fud Around and Find Out. This week, Aizzie Fudd and I sat down with Step and Curry. Step talks pressure, confidence, and what it really takes to stay great. There's different categories, I guess, so I'm like conditioning, shooting drills where you try to simulate kind of games. Look at her face.
Starting point is 00:01:51 We have a love-hate relationship with those because you know you're getting something out of it. You don't look forward to those days. Listen to Fud Around and Find out on the Iheart Radio app, Apple, podcast or wherever you get your podcast. If a baby is giggling in the back seat, they're probably happy. If a baby is crying in the back seat, they're probably hungry. But if a baby is sleeping in the back seat, will you remember they're even there? When you're distracted, stressed, or not usually the one who drives them, the chances of
Starting point is 00:02:20 forgetting them in the back seat are much higher. It can happen to anyone. Parked cars get hot fast and can be deadly. So get in the habit of checking the back seat. when you leave. A message from Nitsa and the Ad Council. Therapy is fantastic, but once again, it does not have a monopoly on healing. That's why I create the resources and that's why I create the community because I really
Starting point is 00:02:39 just want you to have more access. On the podcast, Cultivating Her Space, Dr. Dom and Terry Lomax create a space where black women can show up fully and be heard. It's tough because we're suppressing our emotions and so many of us are like high achieving individuals. Listen to Cultivating Her Space on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast. or wherever you get your podcast. Welcome back, everyone.
Starting point is 00:03:06 We are back for part two with Carrie, and we have so much more to talk about. So let's get right to it. Speaking of like reconstruction of gowns, obviously, I remember mine because I was like having some little episode with the high neck. So I was like, can we just take the neck out? Can we do like a sweetheart neckline? Mine apparently had to be rebuilt and sent across the country. I don't need. I didn't even know this.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Yeah, I needed to send it to Randy Rom. Literally multiple times. And then Michelle's, hers was hand-beated. It took how long- Michelle's dress not only hand-beated, but hers was about, I know that there was a story about the guy that Michelle's dress for the commercial was done by this young gentleman who is an amazing talent.
Starting point is 00:03:54 But somehow in the story it came out that his dress took 600 hours to make. But the truth was it was her real dress, the Randy Rahm dress that she wore. They hand-beat it. So in the back, the back of her attelier, there are four women that sit with a piece of stretch fabric. Oh, my gosh. And each one of them is sewing an individual bead. And they all meet in the middle, and then they go to the next row.
Starting point is 00:04:20 What? And that's crazy. It's insane. And that's just for this piece. And you know how long those dresses are. Correct. And that's why it takes Randiom. Randy's dresses, and that's why Randy's dresses, number one, are so gorgeous.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Yeah. But number two, why they're also so expensive. Correct. It's just the labor. That makes sense. Michelle's dress for the commercial was gorgeous, but this was somebody that I had told where to get the fabric. Fabric was my favorite. It was a burnt out velvet.
Starting point is 00:04:51 He did a gorgeous job. I explained to him about how she likes one shoulder. She and I had already been working a little. We've been doing some press and things like that. So I started getting a feeling as to like what her favorite looks were, like how you didn't like anything around your neck. Correct. You had, right.
Starting point is 00:05:09 You had always covered. Right. But the slits on you started going higher and higher and higher. Yeah. And so we always find something that makes it look like you are a little sexier. You know, sometimes you look at a dress on the rack. It looks like shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:29 I mean, no. I got to be honest. Even I look at it and like, okay, do I even want to show this to anybody? And then all of a sudden it picks up a new life when you see it on. And then if you give me a few minutes, and especially working with all of you, you guys get into it as much as I do where you're like, I don't like the slit on this side. Can we close that one and add one here? I'm like, that's my favorite question. You're like, can we raise the slit?
Starting point is 00:05:53 I'm like, let's take it to the house. Take it all the way over here. I love a slit. No, that was my favorite question. She was one I would make you have to sit. Yes. And see, can you sit sideways now? Can you see me?
Starting point is 00:06:04 I mean, can you talk to a boy on either side of you if you have to? No, I didn't play. I was like, cut it. I was like, keep going. Don't stop. I'm dead. Speaking of Randy, every bachelor since Rachel Lindsay has worn Randy on night one. What is the relationship there?
Starting point is 00:06:21 Love her. Okay. Everybody will tell you. I love this question. me to a party that Randy did. I was, she was my date and Joan was my date. And we had the most amazing night. It was so fun.
Starting point is 00:06:36 I know everybody thinks I'm sleeping with Randy Rom. I am not. I, everybody tells me on the phone, you know how I talk to all of you guys for like an hour beforehand asking you about your underwear, about what type, you know, like, what type of bras do you like, what kind of bathing suits do you like? What kind of lingerie do you like? You know, and at that point, you're all a little shy by the time I get to. Well, you know, there's going to come a time where I'm going to need to buy you some lingerie, I think.
Starting point is 00:07:08 And so, you know, I will usually go back to that question later. But we go through so many different things of like, if I told you you're getting on a Saturday night date, tell me what you would wear out of your closet. And I also make you bring it. just because I believe that there's got to be a night that you're not enjoying me. I mean, just those nights where it doesn't matter what I would show you, where you're just, but what I love is you're comfortable enough with me to say, can I just get dressed by myself? I'm really tired.
Starting point is 00:07:44 I really don't want to be dressed up tonight. And you go and you just pull something. And that's why I always tell people, bring your favorite two things. That way, if you're having a horrible day, you can go into your own suitcase and pull out that. Never happens. Yeah. It's like a factory. I did.
Starting point is 00:08:02 Yeah. Yeah. I didn't. Besides maybe like traveling. Most people don't. I think knowing that you can just makes it easier because there are nights where you just don't want to be touched again. Everybody forgets the women's are the hardest. The men have it easy.
Starting point is 00:08:19 They can put around a sweater or jean, walk out. It's so easy. Makeup and hair takes them six minutes. Getting dressed takes them three minutes. You know, there's nothing to it. And if they're cold, they have a jacket with them. Right. You guys are, I'm not bringing this outfit.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Hell no. And then the next thing you know, it's like, fortunately, I've pushed you just to find something. Let's get a leather jacket that will make sense with the outfit. Do something. Because when that sun starts going down or you start getting chilled, tell me, you're going to be miserable when you get home. Yes. And how many times did you have to jump into a hot bath just to get those feet thought out?
Starting point is 00:08:58 I was drunk enough. No, I'm like, I had my alcohol. And that's what I do. Honestly, yes, but I did have a few cold days. Maybe Gina not so much because she has to draw a straight line. That's why I don't zip you at night. Going from the morning fitting to the night, it ain't completely different. No, it's scary.
Starting point is 00:09:18 No, it's true. It's day and night. It's true. It's day and night. Just tell me what. you want. I showed you things this morning. You kind of picked it. You're changing your mind. Knock your socks off. Just go whatever. Go ahead. Okay. I think we should do our behind the seams. I'm excited for that. We're going to play a quick game called behind the seams. We'll show you
Starting point is 00:09:38 some iconic looks and you're going to have to give us the story behind them. So we even pulled our podcast staff so they pulled some looks and we're going to show them right now. Yay. My favorite. Okay. Hello everyone. We hope that you're enjoying the episode. And if you are an audio-only listener, head over to Bachelor Happy Hours Instagram. We have all the looks posted on our page so that you can check them out while you listen. And we hope that you love this episode as much as we do. First, we have Rachel's Night One dress.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Oh, my goodness. I love that. I love that. I know that everybody hollers at me about that. I've used this dress. You know, I don't think, I just, right. I don't know. understand what people don't understand that there's only so many different styles of dresses but tell
Starting point is 00:10:27 me you did not feel beyond spectacular in that dress i loved that dress i also loved there was like a green heel right and i loved that i think didn't we take the seam it like got sewed up for the actual night one well because sometimes that's what happens on that night when i it's almost a dress rehearsal but it's not because you guys really, you're never really doing anything. You're just getting out of a car. You're not, maybe you'll talk to Jesse. But, you know, that's more for me a little too. Because sometimes that dress may not have had all of that lining in there.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Sometimes they think a lining makes somebody look old. And especially lately, I've taken a few too many linings out and I'm now starting to add them back yet. Got it. And so, yes, that dress started going. way too high where I could see everything. Wow. Because people have to remember I'm 5-2. So this dress on me compared to what it would be on, like, Michelle.
Starting point is 00:11:32 Her slit would be down here where it was like literally up to my, that's my belly button where it was like hitting. No, I see. I'm like, it's past like, past the hip bone. I love that dress. May I remind you that she's also the woman who said to me, could we just go a little higher? Oh, you was pulling on me.
Starting point is 00:11:48 I had to have something because at the time, those are my old boo. Those are my two boobs ago. And I hated them because I just wanted to be covered up. So the only way I could be sexy was the slit. So we had a, that was a perfect compromise to me. Carrie loved it. I loved it. I loved it.
Starting point is 00:12:05 I'm like, these are not coming out. The night before, though, I was still trying to change the straps. So that I knew when she sat down because that dress, when, if you don't have the straps, exactly where they need to be. I said hello boy. Hello boy is indeed. Rachel and Gabby's side picture. That's how she learned that pose.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Just stick your leg out. Under any circumstance, just stick your leg out. You'll be fine. I love it. No, this is gorge. I'm Cynthia Lois. And I'm Josie Dye. And we're done pretending we have it all figured out.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Each week we laugh, cry, and talk our way through life's messiest moments. The things you think about but would never say out loud. The questions you are always too shy to ask. Relationships, regrets, awkward moments. and the stuff no one warns you about. It's honest, it's funny, and sometimes it gets a little uncomfortable. But that's kind of the point.
Starting point is 00:12:58 This is Cynthia and Josie's unmentionables. Listen on the free IHeart Radio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, name? Huge news.

Starting point is 00:13:23 But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band. Before Jonas Brothers was... This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:44 I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, hey Jonas. and then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

Starting point is 00:17:36 Do you remember? Of course I remember. And the bottom, like, I was going through it. I will never understand why we always shoot the women's in the winter and the men's in the summer. I don't get it either. The men are sweating their outside, top. And the women are sitting there. in you can see how wet
Starting point is 00:17:54 the ground is and the dress is absorbing every piece of that dirty water and as the dress is getting heavier I'm watching the dress get falling down on her more and more me and Turty both have new boots like oh yeah zero cleavage is fine
Starting point is 00:18:10 and freezing I mean I know that I did I love the color me too people forget though that the driveway it's wet and then they keep re-wetting it yeah because so it has that little shine And the steam that's just like coming up. It's freezing.
Starting point is 00:18:25 My God. Freezing. Your shoes are already completely soaked within the first second. Literally yes. The dress is already absorbing the water. Do you remember our shoe changed? Because it was so wet. My strap.
Starting point is 00:18:36 And I was like, Carrie, I come running. I'm like, I have no shoes. She's moving on to another date. She's supposed to be coming to me so that I can get her shoes. And all of a sudden I see she's walking in different direction. I'm like, girl, you're not got, you have no shoes on. I mean, what are you doing? Come to me.
Starting point is 00:18:56 No, I literally was like, I can't wait. I can't, right. Just bring him. She said to me. She said to me, goodbye, Carol. She's like, just bring him to me. No, I literally. So I'm sitting there and I'm watching her.
Starting point is 00:19:09 Okay, next we have Hannah Brown's promo pant dress. Oh, this will always be my iconic. The pants suit with the over skirt. This was the commercial, though. Yes, yes, yes. was and I will tell you, out of all of the commercials that we've ever done, I have to say, this commercial won awards, this commercial deserved every. Yeah, no, it was like this dress was everything.
Starting point is 00:19:33 She hated the outfit, but she didn't understand what the commercial was going to be. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so she didn't know that she was going from a pageant to, right, to just being a new bachelor. And it was the, the commercial took. Gus at least felt like 24 hours, but she and I walked up and down a hill. And all I kept saying was if she rolls her ankle and she can't be in heels for the next two days, I'm going to kill all of you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:03 I remember you telling me that. I was like, oops. She and I would walk up this hill and down. And she'd walk down the hill. We'd walk back up the hill. And I kept saying, somebody telling me, you got it this take. Oh, my goodness. This commercial was iconic and Michelle's.
Starting point is 00:20:18 I like those were amazing. No, I love, I love, sorry I was something in my eye, but I love, I love Michelle's. Yes. Love, love, love, love. Yeah, I love, love, love. That house was beyond, you know, we get to go into these most amazing locations. You've, you know, just the travel alone, for the people who went through it with, you know, COVID, I just feel so bad for what they've missed. I mean, we've been in castles, we've been in palaces, we've been in people's homes that, you know,
Starting point is 00:20:48 I mean, I walked through a man's closet and just thought, I'm just going to move in here. I don't care. That was as in New Orleans. I was like, no, that. It was, it's insane. And doing the commercials were so much fun. Rachel's two, they, I must have had to redo pedals. We had 17 different things that each time she would take a different step, I would change the skirt going.
Starting point is 00:21:18 a different direction so that her leg would kick out. These small things people don't realize. I know. There's so much. There's so much. Okay. Next is Jen's Mentel All-Dress. Oh, love that dress.
Starting point is 00:21:34 I love that dress. I could not remember that one when I saw it on the list. I love that one. She is taped into it. I know. That's right. Because we're in a live studio with fans all. around us.
Starting point is 00:21:49 Can you not have a moment? No. Not right now. You know, it's one thing on the show if the cameramen see something and they, you know, and they stay. It's scary. But, you know, when we're in a live thing, no, I prefer. And she felt gorgeous.
Starting point is 00:22:09 I mean, I think I would have closed it a tiny bit. But I think when I went to, she was. Yes, I believe my hand was swatted. I love the way it's like a little bit long. Mercury. No, it's perfect. And that color on her, like you said,
Starting point is 00:22:22 it's fantastic. The color is so good. Next is Cindy's after the final rose dress. Cindy's dress. She looks hot. She was so hot.
Starting point is 00:22:32 I'm like, I love this. And she, right. She is gorgeous. I mean, this is a woman in, you know, we're talking, you know, my age.
Starting point is 00:22:42 She looks amazing. And it's, but she is, she is stunning. Is that strapless? Or is it? Spaghetti straps. I can't see, obviously, because of her hair.
Starting point is 00:22:51 It's like a halter. A halter, amazing. No, I'm like, it's fitting perfectly. That metal is... The wire. Yes. Yeah, metal wire. I love the necklace, too.
Starting point is 00:23:03 But even I can see now that there's a boobab showing. Wow. See, this is the things that I see. Yeah, I'm like, you caught it quickly because I'm like, where? I see it a little bit now. Trust me, when I tell you, I tried. But her boobs also. She need, got it.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Right. And so when that dress, I can bend it all I want. But when she sat, there's nothing I could do. Next we have Taylor Frankie Paul's Night One dress. Oh. My baby. This is a dark olive. I know it looks black here.
Starting point is 00:23:38 It does because I was like it looks black. I loved the simplicity for her. And she had that green. I don't remember which one of you did not know how to hold a stole. you learned you became good how to hold what how to hold a stole like when you got cold
Starting point is 00:23:53 did I no because you would just drape it right yeah but you started wearing it like over one shoulder you know it is what it is I just need to be warm hello at this point I mean at one point I think you were wrapping it around your neck like it was

Starting point is 00:24:17 Good stole. Olive green love. Yeah. That is stunning. Was Taylor, did she want to be more laid back like for her rose ceremony outfits or just like the day to day? No. Taylor told me she wasn't into any secret. I figured that. She didn't want any of the bachelor kind of looks.
Starting point is 00:24:35 She didn't want to be shiny. She didn't want to be sequinny. She didn't want to be crystals and things like that. She wasn't into, you know, just know I've heard about this Randy Rom. I don't want any of her things. Oh, she said that? Yeah. And she was like, I'm like, okay.
Starting point is 00:24:50 I'm like, so we had a lot of plain dresses and different things. You know, but I looked at like what she had ever dressed up in. And I thought, okay, I know big oversized sweats and oversized. She's very, like, chill. Very, very chill. And then we got to the fitting. And she, one thing, she is, besides having the sweetest, cutest, cutest, personality and I will defend that until the end I die.
Starting point is 00:25:22 But she also is a worker. She's fast, she's decisive, and she knows. And she was going down the rack and she kept handing me things. And somehow it was a beaded Randy Rom, and then another beated Randy Rom. Then a beated Randy Rom. Hey, I'm Tori Webster. host that digital take.
