Everyone was in town this weekend to help on the Promise House. And you could see the triplets are clearly hard at work. And the Coops were like, is there a camera on? Yeah, we'll come in. Yeah. No, we'll take a break.
Starting point is 00:00:20 How's the stuff coming? I mean, it looks good. How did it, how's it started? How's it good how did it how's it started how's it going like like did it take a while to get going even in the middle of the engagement party last night my dad started ripping up the floor he couldn't help himself yeah you're yeah both they're they're both named steve both steve's all of a sudden just start ripping stuff and i'm like yeah if you're like just true sign of a dad right there just just like can't help it. Yeah. You got to get it. They just want to see what was underneath. We'll get into the proposal more later. But yes, speaking of in a very dad way, I know I had all of Rachel's family write her letters during the proposal last night
Starting point is 00:00:55 and Steve Koop wrote it on an envelope, which is great. She feels like the most like father thing. Absolutely. Yeah. Did you write on an envelope because you were being intentional or because you're like, crap, I got to write that letter. That time it was intentional. Yeah. Okay. Oh, it really was. I usually write stuff on. I love it. Yeah. My dad's thing. He, my dad's big on envelopes and foam cups from get and go. You ever write on cups? He's like, he's like reading it. Rachel, you are the best daughter ever. Like going down. Let's dissect this real fast. Let's talk about the envelope. What kind of envelope are we talking here? It was a full
Starting point is 00:01:30 business type. And it was in a fresh envelope or was it fresh? Yeah. And it's the kind you don't have to lick. Oh, and did you write only on the outside of the envelope or did you kind of go outside into inside? Okay. Yeah. Front back business envelope. Yeah. Front back. Yeah. That's great. Yeah. I love it. Anyway, the house stuff has been great. Uh, I know at one point this morning, people were pretty excited about, you know, de-corking, uh, everyone was pretty optimistic. And then at another point I heard my dad say, do you think Rachel will notice if they don't have a dishwasher? So I don't think it started to go well pretty, pretty early on, but anyway, uh, yeah, let's get into how uh last night
Starting point is 00:02:05 went yeah baby i have some trivia questions for anyone the audience brad everyone else to participate in love it how many times leading up to the proposal did i uh practice kneeling down and opening up the ring box okay is it zero is it one or is it more than five i any thought oh i did tell you i like the idea of it being more than five and i like them being like like a quick like super set like five in a row just quick like like a hit workout yeah interval training yeah like like, Oh, I don't know if I did that very well. Let me do it again. Like, no, it was like all five reps. Like I know how I want to do it. I just need reps. Um, my guess, I want to say, I want to say five because I like that,
Starting point is 00:02:56 but I think it's zero. Cause I think you're just like, I'm I've, I've been down on a knee before. Uh, any other thoughts? More than five, more than five. Yeah. Okay yeah okay uh the correct answer was one okay i did it once in my bathroom two nights ago and i did it and i was like i think i got it okay you're right i have been on a knee before out loud did you say it no okay okay that would have been weird yeah you never know it's like one of those i asked you this yesterday i was like have you practiced this have you done anything like this? I don't remember what I did. You guys remember?
Starting point is 00:03:29 Tom? Tim, sorry. That's crap. Why'd you guys do that to me? Sorry. Gosh, I'm embarrassed. The mistake that my parents keep wanting to make is that Tim goes by Tim, but Tom goes by by Tommy. Yeah, so my parents keep calling him Timmy and that just sounds way worse
Starting point is 00:03:49 I was like you got a stuff called Tommy just sounds like the younger sibling because of Tommy boy I think of like okay, so that's why I'm sorry Tim gosh. I'll never do it again. I won't I won't Gosh, okay when gutter first met Tim he had heard that Tim had been on a college visit Which was for law school and so gutter said how's high school gone? won't gosh okay when gunner first met tim he had heard that tim had been on a college visit which was for law school and so gunner said how's high school going senior in college yeah dude so like yeah what year are you thinking about pleasure frat or what like so all my friends are just one by one trying to like slowly disrespect him um so thanks i'm sorry tim gosh i really do value knowing people's names and so you're very good at it most of the time most of the time so um so yeah that was one yeah
Starting point is 00:04:32 i just i kneel i practiced kneeling once uh second question who did i see this one's for the audience everyone else knows about this who did i see in public 90 minutes before proposing patrick mahomes brad's dad uh rachel herself or casey wolf who's the chief what's up casey wolf hey casey wolf guess what i'm about to know um the correct answer was brad's dad we both it was a 3 30 p.m i pulled into walgreens and uh i mean we we parked at the same time or like i feel like our cars like went like tiny bit in reverse at the same time we were so in sync and um we got out of the car he was wearing a ghost runners t-shirt and i was just like what are you doing here and uh he was like what are you doing here and i was like i'm proposing tonight i'm coming to get a card uh to write rachel a letter he was like oh
Starting point is 00:05:19 that's pretty neat i just write mine on envelopes, take a foam cup from my car. But that was pretty fun. And he was like, let's get a selfie. And so we took one in the parking lot. And while the camera was forward facing to us, it was also directly facing a woman still sitting in her car. So I felt uncomfortable with that. But we took a selfie and he was like, this is pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:05:41 I got to tell everybody that I saw you on your way to propose. And I was like, you're going to tell them later though, right? Be specific about how and when you're telling me you're going to tell everyone that's going to be later on. Uh, yeah. My dad will send me like, finds the most random connections, like, you know, cause he used to work for a college. And so he would meet people that I knew from high school that were like, either going back to college or like we're in college at the same time as me. He's like, Brad, look who I ran into today. And it's always like, oh yeah, Noah Ramirez. I played like JV football with him for like a semester one time. And like, and so I saw like, you know, a quick like, you know, notification like, Brad, look
Starting point is 00:06:12 who I just saw at Walgreens. And I'm like, I'll look at that later. And then I looked at it. I was like, that's Jake. What's Jake doing at Walgreens like hours before he's supposed to propose? And I was like, well, did he tell you what was going on? He's like, yeah. Did you know about this?
Starting point is 00:06:24 You know, I was like, of course I knew, dad. Like you, what'd you know about this you know I was like of course I knew dad like you what'd you say last night you're like of course I knew I bought the ring yeah yeah it's my right I paid for the ring yeah yeah exactly so what a wild what a wild time so yeah it was fun I was running a little behind I got like a phone call like a pretty important phone call at three about work and I was like I guess I could tell him I have a lot going on today but this is kind of fun too it's about like a mood swings apparel sponsor okay it's kind of fun there you go in in quotes joe said i've never seen anything like this y'all are the hottest thing in golf right now i've always said that i think it's because i stopped eating sugar i think he means physically literally he's like you're physically your jawline yeah uh anyway i have
Starting point is 00:07:01 one more trivia question and then we can get into the story um where was the ring in its box uh when driving to the park with rachel all right in my back pocket in the glove box in the middle compartment or underneath my seat let's hope glove box is a risky move do you know the answer to this one no okay maybe i. Maybe. I think I might know. It's not glove box, is it? Okay. So you're counting out glove box? I am. I'm going to let them choose.
Starting point is 00:07:29 Jake's smart enough to not do the glove box. Thank you for believing in me. Yeah. Who knows what the right answer is? Any other thoughts? Have I told any of you guys this? I told Rachel. I would have gone under the seat probably.
Starting point is 00:07:39 You would have gone under the seat? Yeah. Under the seat. Okay. Okay. I'll go pocket. Tim's going pocket. Tom's going Yeah. Okay. Okay. I'll go pocket. Tim's going pocket. Tom's going pocket.
Starting point is 00:07:45 Okay. I know it's him. Good answer, Tom. Thanks, Jim. Tom's out like actually working right now. Like, why do they keep talking about me? You say my name a lot. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:02 What do you think, Brad? I thought middle console is my guess. Middle console that was the plan uh going into it but uh timmy is correct um it is in the back pocket smart tim gets me i mean i almost wore that exact same sweatshirt we're just we're synced up cornelius seed most of the time what's your good see yeah what's your favorite part about cornelius seeded? Oh, the merchandise. Yeah. The sweatshirts. Sea Seed. Great crew. Planet.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Gildan. Profit. I like that. That's a good. Planet Profit? Planet Profit. So was that uncomfortable? Yeah, in the back pocket.
Starting point is 00:08:35 Yeah. Yeah. But I couldn't risk like the transfer of like middle pocket to back. Yes. Or sorry, middle compartment to back pocket. Rachel's like, what are you getting out of there, bud? Yeah. Or I would have to like distract her like whoa look at that tree and then like boom boom oh look at that crazy tree over there yeah yeah and so on the way to rachel i had my back pocket and kind of like with side sounding see it's like i can do this for 20 minutes yeah right it's
Starting point is 00:08:58 less risk i made you feel like he was sitting a little funny i'm sure you didn't know see this stuff we had a pretty normal drive over i made sure to wear even like a nice little like jacket thing that goes low enough on my i did like my rear that you wouldn't be able to tell there's this huge ring box coming out the back of it so love it okay so let's get it talk about the details of the day okay um yeah i was i was kind of jealous of rachel all day because i am just nervous as i'll get out it's so emotional i cried a good amount yesterday really yeah how just different times thinking about it praying about it yeah writing the letter on my phone writing the letter in ink yeah rereading the letter to myself to make sure i didn't screw anything up wow eventually reading
Starting point is 00:09:39 the letter to rachel sure a lot of opportunities really you cried that's great i think it's awesome that you cried by yourself i just that's awesome yeah i i i would cry like i did cry like speaking to katherine at the day but i don't remember like crying i mean you were really feeling it i like to like kind of spread out my emotions a little bit you're kind of all at once i was like let's do some at nine and some at noon you know like it was a pill or something um so i saw you yesterday like multiple times in between your cries. Yeah. And you didn't tell me like, hey man, I've been crying. Like I think that used to be like the first thing we talked about.
Starting point is 00:10:12 Hey bro, how you doing? Good. I cried a little bit though. It's been kind of weird. But yeah, all day I just felt all these emotions. I was so nervous. And I was like, Rachel's got it so good. She's going to school.
Starting point is 00:10:22 Just crazy hair day. Okay. Tell it. Did you, did you do a little crazy hair? I did space buns. What? Oh, those leia miley buns they're not too crazy okay okay but yeah there was blue paint paint blue gosh i can't there's blue spray paint that you could use a lot of the kids were using or like hair paint not spray paint and none of the teachers other than maybe two of them did that and if more of them would have done it, I definitely would have.
Starting point is 00:10:45 These kids need to like me. Just remind me, Rachel's a substitute teacher. And I walked in and no teachers even had crazy hair other than the bottle in the hair girl. Yes. Yeah. That was it. Did I tell you? I was like, Brad mentioned that.
Starting point is 00:10:58 I was like, that's got it. I want Rachel to have proposal pictures with the bottle in the hair so badly. Rachel was kind of like Pam when she goes to a different branch and realizes that none of them dress up for Halloween. Like she showed up and was like, okay, so the teachers don't do crazy hair day. Which is sad. It's an elementary. High school teachers,
Starting point is 00:11:16 I would expect not to. Elementary teachers, you have to. How long are you subbing for these people? I did this whole week. Now I'm done. So at least Friday was my last day and I knew people. yeah yeah wow that's okay yeah rachel i had a full day of school i i started finding b-bop around i had plenty of errands to run i was getting groceries whatever
Starting point is 00:11:34 and then you know people were like have a nice day i was like you bet i will you know i kind of look them in the eyes like i will i'm gonna cry at least six more times today yeah it was kind of fun i feel like I walked a little different yesterday. Yeah, absolutely. I will. Oh, you bet I will. I will. I will, sir. Anyway, Rachel, how was the night? You want to tell everyone what happened?
Starting point is 00:11:54 Okay. It was a great night. It was a perfect night. I was so happy. Yeah? Um, okay. Did you have any inkling? Any feelings? No, I just knew it probably happened sometime the next few months Yeah, very soon before Christmas is what you're I figured. Yeah And I didn't think what happened this weekend because they were my parents and Tim Maybe you two were supposed to be at a wedding
Starting point is 00:12:18 Friday night and they were gonna come down either late Friday night or Saturday morning today And then I was like we're to look like this the whole weekend. So I don't think it's going to happen this weekend, which it would've been fine if it did, looking weird. But so I didn't really think it would. Rachel says that she literally has one sock on right now. Yes, I stepped in paint in that one. Oh, okay. I was very curious.
Starting point is 00:12:39 I noticed it earlier and I was like, Rachel only has one sock on. I was like, she's like a four year old. Doesn't bother me. I guess I should put another sock on in case, Rachel only has one sock on. I was like, she's like a four-year-old. Doesn't bother me. I guess I should put another sock on in case I step and paint my foot. You can wash it off. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:12:50 You do it. Anyway. Okay, so you did not see it coming. I didn't think it was going to happen, no. Love it. I did get my nails in with my friends this week, but. Did you notice that the blue tape was gone on the floor whenever you came here?
Starting point is 00:13:02 No. She didn't. Good. That was one of the things that we were really concerned about, taking off the tape. I should have just had She didn't. Good. That was one of the things that we were really concerned about. Take it off the tape. I should have just had Catherine do it. That was the one, yeah. Jake was like, I don't know, man. She's going to think the tape's gone.
Starting point is 00:13:12 They cleaned up too much for me. I did think it looked really neat in there, but I couldn't figure out why it looks so neat. I wanted it to look really good before we paint. Our family's coming over. What's 2FA security on Kraken?

Starting point is 00:14:51 um anyway yeah i told rachel we were going to dinner with my family and i had all these like different lies in my head like okay if she asks this i'll say this and we get the whole drive to meadowbrook she didn't ask a single question so I was like great so we went on a walk and you read your very very nice letter to me and then you cried I did teared up a little bit but I had I had a plan to execute you know did you when he teared up where you're like it's it's on or is it like I think Rachel teared up first she was already feeling a little emotional okay it's pretty good letter yeah can you read it real quick yeah yeah no I was just like I think this might just be nice because I thought maybe you actually did feel bad about not going on the walk last week
Starting point is 00:15:30 because you know I was so looking forward to it all part of the plan you never want to go on a walk and you asked to do it yes I could be freezing and not go on a walk so then we walked past a tree and these two popped around the tree say who they are
Starting point is 00:15:47 uh these two mom angie dad steve facebook group participants let's talk let's talk yeah take a little detour for that uh local influencer steve coop uh former teacher current farmer current influencer yeah um ghostwriters facebook group loves them. Yeah. Posted twice within 30 seconds on the Ghostrunners Facebook group. Steve, how does it feel? You got over a hundred likes. It was really good. Rachel thought I might get 40. And one time I just sent her 172. That's like Scott, like with his followers, like I'm currently at 313. Yeah. Good Scott. 172 baby. Yeah. What was the caption exactly? Oh, just Rachel Coop's dad. I like harvest season football on the radio and then the donuts.
Starting point is 00:16:42 But there was one that just was the video. I didn't realize it was so short. I put another one on. I love it. I think we need to get a weekly, you know, Steve Coop video out in the field. Only if Angie will. Yeah. Yeah, Angie will start being there with you. Anyway, so yeah, they came.
Starting point is 00:17:01 They came around the tree and I was like, oh, surprise. But that's sort of normal for us to surprise each other by showing up to an event early. Rachel's favorite kind of surprises are human surprises. So I tried to incorporate a lot of those in the proposal. A ton of them. Thank you. So I was like, oh, they're just coming early and they surprised me because I do that all the time when I go home. I don't tell them that I'm going to be there until 10 but then I get there at like 6. And he's excited to see me. Nice.
Starting point is 00:17:32 So I didn't think much of it and then Jake walked to the right and we walked to the left. And then they had tears in their eyes and I was like, oh my gosh. They're about to tell me something bad. And Jake's not going to be, he didn't want to be here.
Starting point is 00:17:48 I'm not there for the cancer. Yeah. Jake's not. I mean, I'm not, I'm not engaged to her yet. I'm not going to be there for that intimate moment. Yeah. Rachel legitimately thought. And the last words I heard was Rachel.
Starting point is 00:17:59 She's like, what's going on? Like I needed to, I think Rachel got a little, just tell me who's got it. What stage are we on? Whoa, yeah. She legitimately thought it was. I was nervous. So the part where I thought Rachel was like, oh, okay, this is happening.
Starting point is 00:18:12 It was the part where Rachel was like, this is going to be the worst day of my life. They would know that I don't like to receive terrible news. Nobody does. But I just, I don't know. I know that they would try to make like a happier place to tell me to make it a little bit less bad.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Every time you're in Meadowbrook Park. My parents are so great. They were so cute with the way they delivered that awful, debilitating news. Stage three. Not so bad when you're in Meadowbrook. Honestly. The trees are nice. But anyway, so you go on a walk with them.
Starting point is 00:18:42 They read you letters off envelopes. Yeah. Letter off the envelope. Letter from in the envelope. Yeah. Oh, nice. Yeah. Good teamwork there. Yeah. And then we walked a little bit.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Just gave some nuts on camera. And then my brother Tom, brother Tim, niece Lucy were around another corner and then met up with them and I got to hold Lucy for a little bit and they wrote very nice letters. Lucy ripped up one of the letters. Yes, Lucy ripped up the letter while Tommy was reading his. So that was great. That's awesome. But Lucy was in a really warm, fuzzy outfit and it was keeping me warm because they had taken my jacket.
Starting point is 00:19:24 And the brothers were a surprise that was a great surprise yeah i did not expect them to be there because they had the wedding and tommy has 100 things to do at his house this week and there's an iowa state game today so i didn't think oh yeah but they came and they wrote really really nice letters and it was so sweet yeah and then they dropped me off at jake tim took my purse and we walked over to this stone area by the lake pond and then Jake said more nice things
Starting point is 00:19:53 and asked me to be his wife and he's like yeah sure uh yes sure uh can you imagine Bo just being like uh sure if hattie does i will yeah how do you get married i get married too dad wait miss rachel's not getting married to me
Starting point is 00:20:18 that's great so so while they were doing their walks uh walks and letters how how briskly were you like getting to your spot i didn't need to walk briskly but you know i kind of mapped out where i had a path away from everyone else where i could kind of take a little shortcut and i just sat on a bench for about 10 minutes okay waited for them yeah um and yeah really tried to keep an eye on anyone else like getting in the way there was like a fisherman who was like kind of easing his way that way and there was this woman who i think had never been on a walk with a dog before in her life she kept like going in circles she kept looking at the sky and like she'd take three directions three steps left four steps right and she was just like eventually
Starting point is 00:20:55 caitlin's fiance my sister caitlin's fiance brayden had to like shoo her off yeah because this dog had like an inflatable around his neck it wasn't like a. It was like in case the dog is in the water and can't swim. I don't know what the dog. You know, big lake, you know, pond. It was so weird. This woman, something might've been up. She might've had some stuff. I don't know, but she was kind of in the way.
Starting point is 00:21:14 So she got shooed off and everything truly went perfect. And according to plan, I was so nervous all day. But then once 530 hit, like once we started the process, it was like the state championship game. I was like, all right, we got, we had tip off. Here we go. Execute the game plan. Let plan let's go yeah yeah so yeah it went perfect and rachel thought all the surprises were done we went out to dinner and then we came back and katherine ellis had planned a wonderful engagement party here food charcuterie uh balloon arch and
Starting point is 00:21:40 uh we were just kind of dinner we're like hey let's just go back and see the house drop off the vinyl flooring. And then all the blinds are down and the lights were off. I lead Rachel in and all of our friends are here. Lights are on. Surprise. Were you, you didn't see that coming? No, I didn't.
Starting point is 00:21:53 No? I actually was like, should we actually park on the street so the people with the flooring can back in? And the garage didn't load it? You're like, no, that'll be fine. No, I know. That was a dumb idea. We were like, yeah, it was, yeah, we were,
Starting point is 00:22:06 we were all tracking your location, you know? And you were getting kind of close. Like it's one of those things where like, when you're trying to have a surprise one mile away feels like you're, you know, within a year shot, like, like, yeah, come on. You know, like, like you were by Hawaiian bros, you know, which is like probably three minutes at least. And it was like, we had all the lights turned off.
Starting point is 00:22:27 Like people were like using their flashlights to like navigate around. And then we're like, oh, who's going to turn on the light to like, you know, like when we say surprise. And Catherine's like, I'll do this one. And she like flips it on. And everyone's like, what are you doing? You just ruined it. You can't do that. Catherine felt so bad.
Starting point is 00:22:44 You know, like you were like in reality you were like yeah at least a quarter mile away like you were not that close but it was so funny like imagining yeah anybody like katherine doing this like boneheaded thing um but yeah it was so fun i think we just flipped on the light right you're going in a dark house yeah maybe we just flipped it on yeah i think rachel just flipped it yeah that's right so yeah we it was a lot of fun the whole thing it was great the night truly went perfect couldn't have done it without katherine couldn't know about my sister caitlin she was kind of the point person coordinated everything it was great proposal did not end up happening at 558 as predicted i was
Starting point is 00:23:16 gonna ask about that yeah but we weren't too far behind schedule still golden hour great pictures oh i bet and um yeah it was awesome good dude the goops all came down just like they're here now look how supportive they are they don't miss a thing yeah like we're doing a proposal i'm there we do a 30-minute podcast i'm there like cory cory and tom good you guys you too no uh cory and tom have a baby that's like rosie's age 10 10 days older than rosie fun and delaney's right there with them and delaney Duckworth as well.

Catherine literally at one point just goes, bless her, bless her so much. You know, like, like seeing you like walk out, I think with the baby at one point or something, you know? So yeah, you guys are so supportive, all of you. So it's fun to see baby at one point or something you know so yeah you guys are so supportive all of you so it's fun to see and your family too you know they're great but they're um you know they care about that second coat of paint i guess you know so they're not
Starting point is 00:24:14 gonna let that go by they're not they're not coming in here but um yeah fun night feels so good i was so relieved when it was finally over like truly after i proposed i was hugging rachel i think i like collapsed i was like oh my gosh i don't have to plan anything else except it's isaac's birthday in like two days so i've been texting gunner a lot trying to plan that but i don't think i need to plan like no one needs to write anything in an envelope at meadowbrook park for isaac yeah maybe it's like a round of golf no maybe just do the exact same thing like i did text gunner that i was like it's already set and all the same people too i want tam and tommy to write is write Isaac a letter for his birthday.
Starting point is 00:24:46 Hey man, I don't really know you very well, but like cool beard, I guess. I don't know. Sorry about your hamstring. Jake told me. Yeah. So yeah. Did you, I don't like, I feel like probably 10 times, you know, in this whole past month or two, you're like, I'm just so excited to be able to tell Rachel all the things I've
Starting point is 00:25:04 been lying to her about. Oh, so fun. I got to tell her about the conversation with her dad, you know, initially asking for permission and how fun that was. Cause do you, do you want to share any of that? I mean, it was just fun. There's details that can be personal or whatever, but yeah, it was a really fun conversation. The part that I just found so funny was we get done where we leave the car and he's like, Oh, so mom's the word. That's what he said. He goes,
Starting point is 00:25:23 mom's the word. So I can't tell goes mom's the word so i can't tell anyone i was like definitely tell your wife i think it was my exact phrase i was like i was like you tell anyone you want i was like i trust you i mean don't tell rachel but tell whoever you want but i just thought it was so funny that steve was just prepared to go to his grave just never telling anyone i would have loved that would have been pretty fun though if angie i had no idea angie's like why are we at this park, Steve? Who has cancer? Yeah. Yeah. But do you want to tell, sorry, I don't, I'm putting you on the spot as far as personal stories go. So maybe you don't just have, why we got about two or three minutes before this camera shuts off. Okay. Steve, uh, you told me a fun story about you and Angie had a little bit of a bet going. Do you want to, is it okay? Well, I thought it would be a little while longer because last
Starting point is 00:26:07 thanksgiving i think my comments well you guys barely know each other that was the foundation and so these everybody else i was going to happen pretty soon well then once the promise house came through then i thought yeah i might lose this bet but it's before the promise house andy and i bet a thousand. From a shared bank account. About a certain time. It makes a difference, though. Well, I knew I was going to win. He goes, well, how much do you want to bet?
Starting point is 00:26:33 And I'm like, well, I'm winning $1,000. So after Jake asked me, then I slid hundreds under the door. She's like, what are you doing? I said, count them. Then she figured out, what, really? That's so fun. I love it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:49 So time will tell if Angie splits any of that money with me. I just made her $1,000. What you don't know, Steve, is that Angie actually talked to Jake. It was like, can you ask like now? I'll give you $200 if you can get it done by Thanksgiving. Yeah. Yeah. Rachel, any final thoughts, final words, anything I left out?
