Tartic. There's an accent on it. Okay, fine. Jason Tartic. Why do I find, I feel like I'm struggling with that. It's kind of like it's spelled like Tartic, but it rolls off your tongue. Oh, like Tartic. Tartic.

Oh, so I didn't nail it the first time. You nailed it. You nailed it. You nailed it. Tartic. And Olivia. Garidi. Cariti.

Cariti. I feel like you're a psychic with that. Yeah, like Madame. Same thing. Oh, yeah, we did. See, this is so funny. Over and over. Got it.

And it was really annoying. Wait, quick question. Hey. Jason. Okay, first of all, we need to point out for the listeners that are living under a rock. Jason was on, what's he so? What was the last one? I can't.

I know. Hey? Oh, we're going to get along. Just fine. That's Becca season, last season. I know 14, I know Becca's, but I couldn't remember the number. I think it's 14, yeah. Okay.

Third place. Bronze medal, baby. Bronze medal. You're on the podium. We're good. We made it. And we all know Olivia, because she's been on the podcast before, and she has her own great, great podcast. Okay, so Buffalo, I feel like you're kind of an honorary Canadian. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, because you just said A, too.

You know, we were born in hockey ranks, this is what we do. Like, high school football was nothing. Nothing. But high school hockey was everything. And that's just the world we live. I always laugh at Americans in their football. And don't you have a birthday coming up? I do.

You're a hard person to Google for your birthday. This is very sensitive. That's good. I like that. Why is it sensitive because you're turning 30? I'm 30 tomorrow. He's posting about it nonstop. Like, oh, five days till I'm 30.

I actually post it twice. I'm not so. 30 is like the best age you could possibly be. Your frontal lobe. Your frontal lobe is now going to be developed. I feel like 30 is like, I know. I know 30 is the new 20. It's okay, but I do feel like 30.

And anybody who's denying that or acting cool, it's a big turning point. 30 is a big turning point. Oh, you're not. Oh, my God. I'm so old. How old are you again? About almost 27. Oh, my God.

Okay, I'm at 33. That's great. I'm 33. You make 33 look good, Kay. Well, thank you. But 30 was like, I've never been more excited to turn an age than 30. Oh, yeah. Because, yes, I always say 27 was very pivotal for me.

I really got comfortable with who I was. I started figuring out my life. Yes. You talk to me in one year and you'll be like, Caitlin, you were right. 27 is a pivotal year. 30 is a pivotal year for men. Okay. I would never want to be 20 again in my whole life.

30 is just such a comfortable, good age where you really just start to, like, figure your life out. And then you just grow from there. 20s, you're just a shit show. I'm a total shit show. Yeah. Shouldn't your 20s be figuring it out, though? Yeah, you are. I feel like 20s are like navigating detour and you build your foundation for life.

Well, that's because you've got a big boy job. So maybe you have a different outlook on your 20s. I was like, let's party. let's go out tonight and like didn't care about like responsibilities and I was kind of working at a restaurant and figuring my shit out and now I'm like let's build an empire and a career and I'm like I don't know it just I never really figured out who I was but I feel like men 30 is like a good year for men I would tell you my experience was different because out of 21 I was like let's build an empire let's do this and I'm going to climb the ladder and relocated four times and all the nonsense I think he was just in a like a weirdo though like not men's Many people, not many dudes at 21 are like, no empire time. I got to tell you, a majority of my friends had that thought. Not everyone did it, but majority of my friends had that thought process.

Because you were, like, the five people you surround yourself with. True. It's true. So I feel like. Your friends are a reflection of you. Yes. And if you look at all my friends, they have babies and they're married. So what the hell is going on in my life?

I feel the same way. I want babies. Give her a baby. Give her a baby. But yeah, I'm just, I don't know. I'm excited. for you to turn 30 because I think it's going to be the best year of your life. I appreciate that.

Yeah. And you've got a good career and you're a good guy. Thank you. I mean, I'm taking this all from your end. I will say it on a living in his defense, like, I shouldn't be pouty about it. Again, I've lived 29 great years. I'm so much be fortunate. I have great family, great friends.

All is good. But I do feel like once you get past the health, wealth, and goodness and happiness of life, like 30 is kind of a big change of pace. Okay, I'll give you this. It's a change of pace and it's a change of pace. and it's a, it's, I mean, 30 is, I don't know, it sounds so much different than your 20s. You're so used to your 20s, but that'll be, that'll be 42. It's just a number that sounds crazier than it is.

That's true. My mom's 65, and she's like a firecracker. That is my mom. Yeah. My mom is 57 going on Twitter. And she's like the hottest she's ever been in her childhood. Yeah, my mom too. It's insanity.

My mom's insane. It's awesome. She's so hot right now. Yeah, your mom is. My dad's like, whole. Your mom's a spicy little trisket. Oh, fucking. Oh, sorry.

She's killing it. This is so quickly go to Bachelorette when we had our hometown, the producer's like, your dad's a good-looking dude, but damn, he now kicked his coverage. Your mom is hot. I'm like, shut the hell up. I know. Keep my mother out of this. Your mom is pretty beautiful, though.

Oh, that's so sweet. She loves you. She loves you. She loves you. She loves you. Yeah, she's a big fan. I'll let her know. I actually had it.

You guys just did Cassie. Yeah, we did the Today Show, and she, without a doubt, stole the show. Oh, my gosh. She was hilarious. If you haven't watched it, you got to check it out. I just saw on your social media, but that's so, what were you doing it for? So it was this, like, dating panel. And there was a country artist, actually, Bob Guinea.

I love Bob Guinea. Bob Ginny's a beauty. He's a Seattle staple. Yeah. They did this dating panel, and it was Bring Your Mother to Work Day. So everyone brought their mothers to work, so all of us at our mother's there. That's so nice. And that was, like, the cherry on top, because we had to watch what we were saying.

they didn't care what they were saying, the stories were coming out, it was great. That's so funny. That's awesome. Oh, I love that. Yeah, I love that. I always think, like, I need to bring my mom to more events with me to do things. Like, because she just, but she steals my show, though. Like, I'm the show.

That's how I feel. Yeah. I'm like, Mom, you got to take a back seat. What happened to us? They always have a thing. They always have been. They always. Like, we're doing this cool stuff here.

No, no, no. They've always been. That's true. Always. My mom called me the other day asking how to be an Instagram influencer. She's like, I just would like to start making a little money off of Instagram. Like, what do I have to do? My mom's a polar opposite.

She's like, all these people are requesting me. I get these old guys messaging me. I'm like, ma'am, open it up, grow your followers. She's like, hell no. I'm only befriending you if I accept you. That's what she says. Your mom gets old men sliding into it. Of course.

I go, give me those names. I'm going to take care of that because me and my dad together will take care of that. You guys back to hell. off if you're listening. I loved your hometown family date. Oh, thank you. We're going to get into that. I just need to say something. I have to go home tonight from Seattle. We're in Seattle, by the way. I have to go home and fly home tonight because I have my driving test tomorrow. Stop it. I haven't, I've been driving since I was 14 years old. In Alberta, you get your learners when you're 14 and then you get your license when you're 16. And I've never, like, clean record. I've never got anything, no accidents, nothing. I've been driving for 17 years, but I need to get a Tennessee license.

And because I'm Canadian and coming into a new state, I have to go through everything. I have to do the knowledge test tomorrow. I have to do the road test. I've been studying. And that's why I have to go back. Wait, the biggest issue is the parallel park. I can do that with my eyes close. I'm a great parallel.

Nice. I'm going. I'm going to teach a little secret. Okay. Hopefully you get a guy. Okay. Got to work it a little bit. Yeah.

How's your day going? Yeah, that's great. You got that. The other thing is, always look or like, if you're always looking, left, right, up, down. This is what I hear. this is what I hear. You can never look in your mirrors enough. When those DMs or messages are going up, put your phone away. No phones. Left, right, up, down.

Probably don't text. You know, just put your way. Now, question for you. 10 and 2 or 9 and 3? I'm traditional, 10 and 2. Yeah, no, it's 9 and 3. They change the rules. Yeah, well, you'd fail. Do you think they're actually looking at the angle of your hands? Yes.

I'm kind of a 3 and 6. I don't think so. Oh, I'm like a one-hand midnight kind of girl. I'm a 3 and 6. Oh, yeah, I'm like, what a... Shoot. Yeah, like, just blaring ice cube. What kind of music you got on?

Interesting. Oh, yeah, yeah. I'll push runs like weights. Ice cube, baby. I'm on the ground, baby. Na, nah, no, baby. All the time, baby. Oh, my God.

No, I love a big ice cube guy. Guy or girl? No, I say, Chris Harrison called me that... I did a podcast with Harrison, and he was like, why do you always say you're a big whatever guy? No, that's just the saying. Yeah. And I'm like, because it's funny.

That's true. He's like, but you're a girl. I'm like, oh, thanks. Like, I know. But if I was with you two and I was like, do you guys want wine? I would say, do you guys want wine? I would say, I would never say, do you women want wine? I mean, do you guys want wine?

Do you guys want wine? I would be offended if you're like, do you woman want wine? He bitches want wine. He was like the girl. She slammed me in the face. What are you talking about? Very Seattle thing. Boom.

What are you doing? Stop. Okay, back to back a season. I've got to talk about this. Yeah. The floodgates that I opened. Remember? with the whole, like, talk to you soon.

What did you say? Oh, yeah. It was when she, when you came back and brought the scrapbook, P.S. Is this too soon? No. Okay. He's going to start crying. I don't know.

I don't know. What was it? You said, talk to you soon. I think I said, you know, wish you all the best, and I think I just said talk to you soon. But you said something else, too. It was, oh, keep in touch. Keep in, keep in. No, roll the tapes.

Very surprise you. No. Don't go back. All right. Well, good love with everything. I can keep it touching. I'll talk to you soon. Ha-ho!

Now, when that's just like a thing I say. Like, when I say goodbye to you today, I'd be like, yeah, talk to you soon. Yeah. So I think nothing was like premeditated or script. I just said it. No, I just thought it was funny because it was like. It does sound goofy. Well, because it was just such a like heartbreaking moment because I think people really liked you.

I think you'd think you'd think people really like you so then I'm like it it was kind of the sad moment where we didn't want to see you go and you were like all right well uh touch you see you like like I'll talk to you in a couple days like it was kind of like a really casual goodbye I will say what people don't realize like how insanely nervous I was going into that right like because you're dealing with heartbreak you don't have your friends or family you're in the middle of Thailand and it was just like a lot of emotions then you go back and it's just like everything hits you again. Yeah.

So you're not, I'm not thinking about, oh, what are people going to think or how is it going to perceive? No, that's why it was so cute because it was like endearing because you knew it wasn't, you weren't like trying to say something silly. It just came out because you're like, I don't know what's going on right now. Yeah. No, but I loved it. It was probably my favorite moment of the whole, I like, rebound it so many times.

I was like, that is adorable. I thought it was cute. That was tough. It was really tough to watch an episode back. It was really tough. And I was going to say, that's another thing. that people don't realize is like it's so fun to make jokes and like to like tease

the show and I'm sure we all have done it before and after. But when you're in it you're like damn this really is like it's real. It's real. When you're in it yeah for sure and then you get out of it and you watch it. I've watched that episode twice because I had to watch before Mentelaw and then I had to watch it

when I had to watch both times no joke not trying to be cool the strong guy. I was ball in my eyes both times I was. It's just the reality situation. It's tough to watch. Did you find that watching back, because you probably had so many questions, because you're like, I thought we had this great connection. I felt this way. I know she

did too. There was moments like off camera a couple times where I'm like, oh, yeah, it's us. Like, you know, you all feel that way. Those off camera moments. They'll get you. Those happen everybody. Those are real. Don't look too much into those. Yeah, don't read into those. Don't do it. Because oftentimes.

Oftentimes. It's true. And then you like, and all you have are your thoughts. You don't, you know, you're not distracted by anything else. And you have producers constantly talking to you about this one person and they're just like how great oh everything you know like it's just it's you and them and oh i if she doesn't pick you you you know all these things and then to go through that watching back did you get a lot of answers were you did you find closure where you like oh i totally see her like with blake now and i see her with garret like oh i understand better now

because that was me i was in your position i was third oh okay on on on chris sole season he sent me I'm third and I was like, what? Random. I'm like, there's no way he had a better connection than what we had. There's no way. And so many times I was like, I think he likes me more than I like him. Like, that's what I kept thinking. Right.

And then watching back, I'm like, I like that. It makes sense, right? Yeah, you get it. Now, for me, it was different because I didn't have, like, everything was, so I didn't have a date the second week. So I had this, like, weird conflicting issue where there weren't actions that were justifying it via like black and white actions, right? She didn't remember your name. She forgets my freaking name. She forgets my freaking name.

And that two episodes before, which they didn't show anything. We're making out for 20 minutes. I'm like, you got to be kidding me. That's funny. But, no, on a serious note, though, like, all these things happened. So I was kind of like, you know, I had my first one-on-one to week six, and then a date week two. She forgets my name week three.

Not a good turn of events, right? Not great. So I kind of thought I was behind. I did. Yeah. But I will say, like, the time we had together was very meaningful. One of the deepest conversations I had was when we had our one-on-one, and she talked about her father who underwent serious illness

and the impact it had on her and her family, but how it brought them closer together. And I talked about some issues within my family and illness and how it impacted us. And it was literally one of the deepest conversations I've had. So you go through this tough situation, like you said, that it's conflicting. It's like, okay, I haven't got a one-on-one,

but I am having some of the strongest, deepest, most meaningful, common conversation I've had. couple that with like a strong physical connection, which we had, it kind of confuses you. But then watching it back, I'll say the pieces of the puzzle came together. Now, I wouldn't be surprised if this guy's mop doesn't get a sugar bear hair ad. You trusted me when I told you guys that sugar bear hair is the best way to get longer, stronger, healthier, and beautiful hair, right? Well, I have something equally important to share.

Wow. Is that literally how it's written on your notes? Perfect. What a transition. Yeah, I just jumped into that one. Okay. Because I was reading my notes and I'm like, wait, I actually really wanted that. So how shitty was that for you?

Well, I was a big Jason guy. I mean, you've seen it all. I've seen it all. I know how it works. I know that contracts are sent out. I know you can't say anything so I won't force anything out of your mouth. But contracts are handed out more than it was like, I mean, Carly and Evan Carly had a contract. track to be the Bachelorette when I was...

Wait, she did? Yes. Yes. That's how that works. They will, they will, you know, they'll talk to a few people. I knew that. And, you know, traditionally on the show, the past has shown us that third place, usually, people are really rooting for them the hardest because we really got to know you.

We love your family. You got a good edit. Not that you aren't who you were, but like, you know, third place is usually this. And then the final two, it's like, well, we can't pick the runner up because he's too heartbroken. and yeah and so the past has shown us that usually third place gets bachelor people were really rooting for you to be the bachelor which actually I know you know that and then you get the contract you don't have to say if you did or you didn't because I'm just assuming things here this is all assumption I don't know any of this this is so cool I'm assuming it feels good and I think what happened was Colton was really like like they needed another Sean Lowe Amen. Because the world for some reason doesn't like edgy realness.

They don't like they like the cookie cutter all American hero kind of guy. You want to know my theory? I think they screwed themselves over with Nick. I think he was too polarizing. And then I think they screwed themselves over. Nick has the best ratings of any Bachelor ever.

No, he doesn't. Yes, he does. Sean Lowe's are. Did you hear that from Nick? No, I did not. No, I did not. I've heard that from very good resources. So I think Nick, as a viewer, was way too polarizing.

And then Ari was even worse. So they need to go back to like square numeral uno, bring back the virgins, bring back Sean Lowe, where it's going to... But listen, Colton is not... I want to hear your opinions. I don't want to interrupt. But Colton is 100%. And Colton's a friend of mine, without a doubt, and a close one at that. But Colton is not Sean Lowe.

I completely agree. But they put everyone in boxes. Like they don't actually... I don't think he's like Sean Lowe at all. I just think that's the virgin thing, the football player thing. He'll probably find a relationship that last their favorite. Colton is the deaf. If you put pen and paper, all-American, that is Colton.

Six-3-bilt, blue-eyes, blonde hair, great. Colton is a great guy. He really is a good, good person, non-examination. for profit. He does, you know, and everyone has their flaws and everyone has their good, Ben, ugly. But yeah, Colton is the definition of the All-American guy. But is he ready? And not to say that 26, you can't be ready

because you were ready to start an Empire 21. Yeah, he wasn't ready. Tried. I just, I don't know if he's ready to find the one. He seems a little confused. That's all I'm getting at, and I think they went for the All-American sweeper. I don't disagree with you. Yeah. I think, yeah. That's what I think. Do you think they ever picked the popular pick?

Yes, pointing at myself. Just kidding. I think it's been a minute since they've That's what I was thinking. I don't think Ari was the popular pick. But I don't think Colton was either. That's my point. Yeah, that's what, yeah. I don't know if they've ever picked the popular pick. That's a good point.

I feel like they've always kind of, the men have always been a little bit like, oh. I think you would have been a great option is what I'm getting at. I agree. Thank you so much. I've said that a million times. I have said you're what the bachelor needs. So here's the thing. I don't think I'm like your typical bachelor.

I have very East Coast. I got the whole edgy thing. I totally do. I have the accent, which I have so. learned about it. I didn't know I had. But the one thing I think is that at the core, I'm a good person. My intentions are real. The other thing is, like, I was thinking about this on the way here, I don't really, especially the older I get, I don't have a type. I have dated everything and anything

A to Z. And I think that, to me, it's who you are as a person. And that is like real. I know it sounds cheesy. But that's what would have been fun, right? Because they bring in all over the board. That's A to Z. It would have been fun. That might have been really dangerous for you. You probably would have fell in love like eight times. Okay. Which is great for ratings. Although it's tough for me to like break down. He's in love with that. No, no. It's really

tough for me to break down and open up. Like it's tough for me. Yeah, but if anyone can do that to you, it's Bachelor producers. I'll tell you what. They're good people. You know that. We all know that. Again, he's under contract. I love them. I still talk to them all the time. You love them because you've only. Because you didn't. Wait a second. I'm not the

bachelor of that sense you're okay you would have seen another another yeah you would have um to me success is having the surrounding yourself of the best people like yes without a doubt job and like career is important and like it's a bonus it's a bonus it's a bonus you could but like family and friends to me like I have hands down you saw me face timing my dad I like cry and I cried listening he is the most beautiful gem of a man you've ever met he honestly has raised the bar so high for me that I, like, I've never been attracted to a douche bag. I've never been attracted to an asshole. I, like, think my dad has just, like, taught me what a man should be like to a woman while

still holding, like, you know, not being like, well, like, my dad's like, would you like me to open the door for you? Do you want to get it yourself? Like, it says he knows, like, I know you still can. Like, he's just, I just feel like surrounding yourself with the best kind of people and having that solid, like, friends and family. And whoever your family is, if that's, like, cousins or, like, you make your own family and maybe, like, something happened to your parents.

Like, but making your own family and having that, like, solid group. of people is the key to happiness in life. It's the key to life. It means everything to me. Amen. Yeah, no, but you can chase titles. You could chase money. You could chase any of that.

Nothing will ever, for me personally, will ever put a smile on my face like my friends and family. I talk to them. And I have the closest, in my 20s, it's kind of crazy. The closest I've ever lived in my parents is 764 miles away. The furthest is 2,796. So I've never lived, but I still talk to my mother. Very specific.

Listen, when you turn 30, you're going to be. think about this thing. Oh, when you turn 30. I still talk to my mom and my dad legitimately every single day. Every day I talk to them at my phone. So, I mean, honestly, that is the silver bullet to success. Yeah. And I think staying humble and like, I don't know, after stuff like going through crazy things, it keeps you sane, too. You know, like those people have loved you from the get-go. Should we confess? We don't have enough wine for this. Should we confess? Yeah. Is it time already?

Yeah, I think we're in the time of the wine and the podcast where I can confess. This kid can go first. This kid, she says. The 27-year-old, I'm the kid. The 27-year-old goes. Are you, like, really living up your last day of 29 right now? Is it the last day? Yeah, this is it.

It's over. No. It's over. Downhill on a bitch sled from here. Yeah, game over. Here I am. Living in Seattle. Cloudy Seattle is killing it.

Have you gone? on dates since the show? You know, it's funny you ask this, because I saw my mother the day and she's like, tell me about your last date when you were in New York, the Today Show. Yeah. And I was like, Mom, I actually haven't. I haven't.

I've gone out with friends and met with girls, ah, you know, and you meet people and you interact and it's more casual. But I haven't gone on like an actual formal. I want to take you out. Date. Yeah. That's what it's called. It's kind of sad, actually.

It's pretty sad. Is it because you worry about people's motives? I think, you know, it's funny You go on the show and everyone's like Are you in it for the right reasons? You have to defend it forever. Yeah. And then like me, I didn't know anything about like

What happens after this world As much as Olivia would beg to differ. I had no idea. I had five posts, 500 follow. I don't know shit about shit. I'm just like, yeah, let's do it. I've relocated four times of work. Let's give it a shot.

And now I'm just like, now I got to ask the same question. I'm like, are you in this for the right reasons? Would you have talked to me otherwise? Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Which is stupid. No, it's true. I think it doesn't even just mean, like, relationships like a guy and a girl.

It could be like friendships or people you meet. You know, like, I find it really hard to make friends in Nashville. And I've met a few where all of a sudden they're like. So. Yeah, like, you can just tell, you know. Yeah. I was just dating this guy. They meet you for one day.

Like, will you tag me in this? You follow me? I was just dating this guy. I broke up with them because I was like, nah. And then a couple weeks later, I met this party. and his friend is there and she's like, yeah, he was going around telling everybody he was dating Olivia from The Bachelor.

Barf! And I wanted to literally be like, are you serious right now? And this is three years out. I haven't done anything in three years. So it's like, how is this still happening? That's the other thing. I was always so private about my relationships

and respectful of the person I was dating. Like, even on Instagram, I never really put, I wasn't a guy like, this is my girlfriend, we're kissing, we're hugging, we're dating, like I liked her. I care about it. I take care. Like, it doesn't need to be public.

So, like, this whole experience is so new. And even me opening up on TV, The Manor I did, is new to me. So now, like, going on dates, I'm like, it's not good. I'm like, word. I'm like, this whole public thing, I'm not used to it. It's not going to be good for a little bit. It's hard. I will say, you think it will get easier to slow down?

It gets, especially if you, are you going to do Paradise? I have no idea. Oh, that's a yes. No, no, no, no. I have no. So this was actually, this was like, because Blake and I have become very good friends after the show. On the show, we were like, we were boys, but we weren't, like, really close.

Because he was, like, so lot. Like, and I tell this to his face. I'm like, I like you so much more after the show and on the show. He was just so zoned down. He was so, which I respect, but. He wasn't there to make friends. He wasn't there to make friends. I was like, I want to be friends with everybody. Anyway, Blake said to me the other day, and I, like, meant a lot when he said, this was when we were in

LA the other weekend, and he's like, one of the things that struck me about you, someone asked you, you didn't know I was listening, but someone asked you, are you going to go in paradise? And your answer to them, and he goes, and at every bone in my body, I knew it was real was when you said, I honestly, I hope I don't, and I said this apparently, and I don't even remember this

because it was just casual. I go, I honestly hope I don't have to go on paradise. I really hope that I find someone and I'm happy before then. And if I'm not, then I would. And he told me that. I didn't even know I said that. But if I'm dating someone, I'm not going to paradise. No, no. I don't mean that. I mean, like, if you're single, you can still just go

to party. You don't have to go to paradise just to meet somebody. Oh, yeah. If it happens, it happens. But, yeah, that's... Who knows? I'll be washed up by then. They got other dudes by that. Yeah, I mean, you're going to be like 31. No, no, no, no.

I'm not talking about it. No, no. They're going to have a new fresh batch of dudes, and there's going to be other guys out there. Oh, no, I don't need more good. Oh, come on. No. When you were in L.A. and you were on a date with Vanessa? I was not on a date.

I was not on a date with Vanessa. He was. I was not on a date with us. It wasn't a date, but you too. We were at the whole thing. I don't act like this is a hidden thing. We were at dinner with one of our public. The publicist agent.

That's it. Lori. I'll see what with Lori. The publicist who tried to set up Danielle and what's his butt? Who's Danielle? Oh, um. Polly. Yeah.

So she's clearly a secret matchmaker. She, that dinner wasn't just anything. Yeah. She's got stuff up her. She's got stuff up her sleeve. There has nothing there. Um, yeah, but, but wasn't that a thing? Like, wasn't it like, um.

There's never a thing. Not that it, sorry. I will say. Not was it. It wasn't a thing between you two. and wasn't the thing that people were saying. She was tagging him when it was like, who do you want to meet from Batch? So here's the thing.

I had always had, I had a crush on her, 100%. Yeah. And I would like, you know, I'd be like, Vanessa. Yeah. Great girl. Canadian girl. Good family girl. Got it all going.

But that was it. I mean, I never met. We met that weekend. And? No, nothing. Any sparks? No. No sparks?

Well, then I just found out she just had got out of a relationship going into that weekend. But no sparks. It sparks later on. Who is your idea? I know you don't have a type, but like what qualities do you look for in a girl? So I like someone that's like sassy, independent, strong-willed, funny, can like hold their own and just be like really strong. They're not dependent on anybody. And then just someone that's like self-motivated.

I don't care what it is. I don't care if it's a direction, a passion, a job, a mission, whatever. But someone that like wakes up every day and like, I'm going to crush this day because of this. And then someone that like I'm like kind of a strong-willed person. And I'm, I always like, if I'm, if I'm waiting in a line at a restaurant or I'm doing so, I always want to, like, take control. I'm like, loud and I'm in charge. And, like, someone that could challenge me and just be like, shut the fuck up.

And I think, again, my dad and I are very similar. And when I look at, like, my mother, I see the way, like, their relationship is. Like, that's how it works. It's a 50-50 relationship. That's what I'm looking for. So that's what I'm attracted to, too. Yeah, that makes sense. Like, if you have the beautiful girl, head to toe, a beautiful model, and there's no, like, no thank you.

Go on. Bye. He'll take it for like two weeks. I won't, actually. Some people will. I won't. To me, that's like, I mean, I just feel like that's a younger 20 guy kind of thing, you know? Like, that's fun to have the hot girl. But at the end of the day, like, come on, there's more to life than looks.

Completely agree. And this is what I was finding interesting is take The Bachelor and Bachelor at, for example, if you watch that show, you all of a sudden, like, a girl who started off who isn't maybe like, you're not like, whoa, I was immediately attracted to her. all of a sudden by the end she's the most beautiful girl you've ever seen because you got to know her and you know like I always I'm like I was in the Batsar mansion and I was like at what point do we get hair and makeup professionally like what how many girls left do we and they're like you don't and I was like but all the girls always get better looking and they're like that's because you just get to know them and I was like I'll say I told Robert Bills that I mean you know yeah yeah yeah mills like dude yeah yeah yeah he and I was like when my picture came out people or not they didn't really like me well I was Well, those pictures don't do anybody else. They don't do any of justice. Did you see mine? I look like I'm 12. They don't do any more justice.

No. But I do think to your point, obviously there's much, because you see guys that are stunning and beautiful on a camera, and you get to meet them, and you're like, oh, no. And vice versa. With girl guys. That was like, Ryan McDill on my season. I was like, he leaked right before I went on before they took my phone away.

And I was like, Ryan McDill is hot. And then I was like, wait. And my sister was like, he's your guy. And it was Nikki Farrell's ex actually. He was the drunk guy, night one, got sent home. He was in a speedo. He slapped my ass. Chris Harrison had to kick him out.

He was a lunatic. Yeah. So you all know that I think everyone is beautiful, and that's why I'm excited to introduce one of my favorites, Alta Beauty.

This is not a question that I feel like people ask or want to answer, but what would ex-girlfriends say are your flaws?

That's a good one. Great question, Lou. It just came to me. It's not even, look, it's not even in my notes because I'm like, I'm like, I'm I mean, like, everybody's always on their best behavior on the first dates. And I would really, like, let's get to the nitty gritty. Okay, we're in our 30s now, you know? X, Y, Z, baby, A to Z.

All right. Like, I would like to know everybody's flaws of what. I'll, I'm more than happy to go. And I'll be self-wearing honest. I'm going to, I want to think about this. I would say that I've definitely gotten better, but I'm a little bit selfish because I don't realize I'm being selfish, but, like, I'll, like, take over conversation too much. Or I'm, like, I've got a bit of attitude which can come off where it's. It's more of like my sarcasm and I'm like got a tone.

But guys get really mad at me for attitude and being selfish when I don't think I'm selfish at all. But I can seem that way because I'll be like, I won't put myself in somebody else's shoes in a relationship. I'll be like, that really hurt my feelings. And then I'll go do something that was kind of similar and be like, I'll stop being a baby. Yeah. Yeah. Like I'm a little bit selfish in that way and I have a bit of an attitude. Yeah.

I'm trying to think of what, like, my ex-boyfriends and things would say. I would say I'm... I know exactly what mine would say. What? Well, two things. First, that I will walk all over someone who doesn't have the balls to stand up to me or be my part, my equal. Are you saying you pray in the week because I don't like that.

No, I just mean that if you can't be, like, same to your point. If someone can't say, like, shut the fuck up, Olivia, like, I will, I'll run shit. Because I got my own stuff going on. You need a challenge. I'm very kind to the week. And then the strong, I just shit at them. Yeah, I'm kind of like that, too. I'm like, bring this on, bitch.

You leave them alone. You come back to me. I think that might be my problem. I think I take some jabs at people who think they're, like, ins... I just, I don't know. I've grown to be, like, doing me, doing my thing for so long that if I don't have someone to be there with me to also have their stuff going on and also be independent and wake up and have their thing, then it's never going to work because I will just like

do my own thing and I'll, you know, don't match me. Fine. I'll walk all over you. Yeah. You know? And that sucks. I don't want to be that way. Yeah. But that would, that's what my ex would say. Yeah. I'm like, what would I say? We resented each other because I was always jumping off doing the next thing. I think I'm too much of a person. for some people, too. Oh, yeah. Like, I think some people are like, Caitlin, just, like, one time,

take a back seat, one time. And I'm like, no. No. You take a back seat. No. No, yeah. Yeah. No.

You take a back seat. What do you mean I have an attitude? You f***ed take a back seat. What do you know about it? I don't know about it. Forget about it. Forget about it. Again about it.

Jason? So I would say the one, like, I'm thinking about, like, I'm getting deep here. Like, early 20s and even mid-20s, I was like way too career focused. I was like, I'm in a, to do anything and everything it takes to get that next. And again, I moved four times for it. And I got my MBA at night. And because of that, I went part-time. So I would go to work till six.

And then I would go to school, six to 11. And there is nothing stopping me from getting that next title, that next job. And I got what I want. I got seven promotions in eight and a half years. And I'm not saying that. No, I'm not saying that braggadocious manner. Because I will say when I got to the point that I wanted to, it was kind of empty. Like it was in Seattle by myself. And I got all the stuff you would ever dream of. And it was a very, very empty moment. Okay. Thank you for saying that because I was clapping being like, that's awesome.

But that was going to be my next question. But once you got that, was, were you like, oh? No, it was very empty. That's, I feel like people. It was because I was in a city by myself, without friends, without family. Great every two weeks. You get a nice paycheck or whatever. But like, I was single.

I had sacrificed a lot of relationships. And I was looking back on relationships saying, like, if I would have gave it more, I wouldn't be here now and I'd probably be happier. Right. Thank you for sharing that. I think a lot of people do that in life where it's just like, okay, like what's next, what's more, what's like if I get that girl, if I get that guy, if I get that job, if I get this, this is what's going to, the grass is always greener where people, and I, you know what? See, that was your early 20s. You're learning.

I'm learning. Just imagine where you're going to be when you're 40 because now you have established a career. So in your early 20s, you probably weren't ready mentally for. for those relationships. You push yourself. Now you're realizing that's empty. Now you're ready for a relationship with your success. But there could be sacrifice for that.

So if you're willing to, like, you know, like so then, but I'm willing to do whatever. Like, I got to find happiness. Happiness is everything. On the show, you really get in touch with your emotions. Yeah. I was, you ask any of those producers, they'll be like, Caitlin thought she was the toughest chick coming into this. I was like, you guys aren't going to make me cry. Oh, yeah.

I'm not going to cry. I don't know. And then, and I would fight it too. I remember fighting it so bad to the middle of the season, and they were like, you okay? And they could tell, and they started playing sad music. And I was like, can I go to the gym? And they're like, you want to go to the gym right now?

I'm like, yeah, I just want to go like. Pump the iron, yeah. They're like, you've never gone to the gym once this whole time. I'm like, yeah, I really need to go to the gym. They sent a producer with me, and I really trusted her, and I won't name her name because she really did keep it to herself. I sobbed. I just got down there and went, I couldn't.

I had the same thing. I had a producer I became close with, and she's such a, I would say only great things about her, and it was off camera. But she's just like, so like, she's like, you're pretty broken, huh? Oh. And then I was like, and it like hit me. Yeah. It's like, you know, I'm a male.

I can't be broken. Yeah, yeah. And I like, I'm like, what's next? And she's like, so why, like, every interview, every conversation we have, you can't open up about anything. Yeah. What's happened to you? And she wanted to know.

And like, that was the same thing. It like broke me down and opened me up. And in the last year, I'm like, what the hell? I know. I watched stupid. shows, I'm like, people are falling in love. I'm like, tearing up. I'm like, what the hell is? This was never me.

The hockey boys would whip my ass. The soccer guys wouldn't whip my ass is hard, but they would still whoop my ass, but the show does that to you. 30s make you soft. And I said it and all I'll say that the show does kind of like, I always thought and again, with my 20s again, I'm like next job, next opportunity, next title, I'm going, I'm going, I'm going, money, whatever. And I will say

that's all brain focus. It's not like connecting and I've said this before. It's not connecting like your head and your heart. I'm so focused on my head. And now that honestly that's why I feel like I'm a better place because of the show because I've like kind of connected the two yeah no it's true I mean I do think it's the show and I do think it's age I think it's a combination of the timing for sure because I do think it's it age is beautiful yeah it really is

I'm a bit of a philosopher tell me more I'm like I'm like I'm a bit of Humanities 101 age age age age age 30s as you get older you age age yeah that's my philosophy that's it that's it You can't, you guys, stop avoiding the confessions. Jason hit me. Yeah, come on. What happened to your elbow? Is that a story?

Is that Rugburn? That is a soccer. You need to confess. Okay, so tell me about the confession. You know about the confession. I told you what mine were. So it's like, what was yours? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

That she smelled her panties at the end of the night. And that I've shit my pants six times, sober in my 20s. So. So crazy. Yeah. Yeah. That's so crazy. What is yours?

I've met so many people through that, by the way, who were like, me too. I think that's good because you told me that Blake and Garrett both did. So many women reached out to me being so empowered by my shit stories. It was really a beautiful thing. Yeah. It's, you know, they were like, me. It's all about conversation.

I can't relate to it. And I also never pissed my bed either. That's so sad. My cousin is. You need to get so drunk that you pee the bed pretty soon. You party. I party. He parties.

Yeah. Well, I don't party, bro. He connie is so hard that he gets scams on his funny bill. I'm soccer. Confess. I'm sick of this. He's going to keep deflecting. I don't, no, no, I'll confess something.

That's a funny story. I mean, I got a lot of confessions. I was debating when you told me about a confession. I'm like, oh, I got some good ones. I'll leave that. I got a really, really good one. Okay. It's going to entice you to come.

I need to go on again. Okay. This one's still pretty good. Okay. So I'm not going to say where I was, but I was with a bunch of guys. And I had a buddy of mine who had just gone through a top breakup. Yeah. And we talked a lot about friends family.

You were in Vegas with Blake who just went through the big. Okay. Go on. Actually, no, but let's pretend that. So we go through a breakup. And again, family, friends, everything, I don't care who you are, where you've been. If you are tight to me, you are tight to me. You go through a tough breakup.

You got a guy crying on your shoulder. You will do anything for him. And I'm like, we're going to do something for him. We rally the troops and we're like, we're going to show this guy a great freaking time. So we go to a basketball game, and I'm not going to say if it's pro or college, I might give away the city. But it was not in my hometown. It was not in my hometown.

And we got there early. We got a ride up. We got drinks. We're feeling good. The boys are doing well. So we have time to get there. So we have a little time early. I'm like, well, I Googled a couple things, you know, trying to put a smile on his face.

And there's a strip club, not too far away. And I will put this on the record. I am not a strip club guy. Yeah. And especially after this. But I've never been a strip club guy. I don't like him. I don't believe in him.

I really don't. But when I got, I'm anti-strip club. I've gone on so many podcasts saying that, and I'll do it again. But anyway, I'm like, this dude broke up. He needs the, like, we need to get him going. So we get to the strip club. Well, I didn't know. It's this strip that's like this famous.

Everyone's there. It's a place to be. There's a laundry. And I don't know if it's because of the basketball game. There's a laundry list of dudes in line. And that's my biggest pet. I don't do lines. I hate lines.

I'll do anything to get out. You're above a line. I will tell someone anything. I'm Jason Hartique. I will tell him. I am Andrew. You know. Oh, I've done that.

I've done that. I've done that. You name it. I've done it. Actually, I asked. Someone has asked me if I'm Andrew Keegan one time I told them all. Anyway, moving on, I was in college. Yeah. Anyway, so this is like young 20, so I'm like, all right, I'm not doing this line.

We walk right up and you're going to appreciate this. Okay. Because I played hockey and got the Canadian accent on your tea. Yeah. I'm not going to say what side of the city. I'm so scared. You're in Montreal. And I was, I'm not going to say, no, I was in.

America. Okay. And then the guys I'm with, they're pretty big built dudes. Okay. Hey, bud, you know, not really used to, like, waiting in line for this. He's like, well, what are you talking about? I'm like, actually, my boys and I were strippers back home. Oh, stop.

Oh, yeah. I did not see that one coming. I was like, yeah. They're going to say hockey players. I know. So they're strippers back home in Canada. Like, we were just trying to come in because we're on the basketball game. And, you know, I thought he's having a rough goal, you know, just giving it.

You sound so Canadian. Give it a shot. But I'm not going to, you know, we can just leave. We're not going to wait in this line. So I'm like, boys just follow me. So we start turning away. Guys like, no, no, come back. Come back.

I'm going, what's up? What's up? It's like, we'll take care of you. We appreciate that. You know, we only have like 45 minutes or so, but thanks again. You know, appreciate it. My boys are dying. They're like, what is going on?

I'm like, just shut the fucking phone. So we go, then. And I think, okay, great. We skip the line. We're going to get some drinks. We'll have a shot or two. My boy will get to see everything he needs. He'll smile at the face.

He's got a basketball game. We'll put some bets on and have some beers. Goes home, sleep, smiles. Great. Well, he's like, well, no, no, no. We didn't have to pay. They made you up on stage. They put us in this area.

Oh, the private area where they dance are naked. No, no. They put it. They're like, hey, we want you to have some champagne and here's some drinks. You guys are good. Now I'm like, oh, shit. This is not good. Oh, no.

Like, it's great. We skip the line of me and pay cover. Now we're getting drinks. This is not good. But I tell them, because the guy still at this point don't know what happened. So I fill them in. I'm like, all right, boys, as you know, through the Canadian accident, no, I wasn't a hockey player. Yes, we are strippers.

They're literally dying. They're like, no way, no way, no way. So I'm like, just like pony up. We still have 30 minutes before the game. I don't know what's going to happen. If we're more than happy to pay for these bottles, I don't know what's going to happen, but we have champagne and some drinks. The guy comes over and gives us the old. we're like a little bit behind.

Would you guys mind, you know, warming up the crowd? I'm like, what do you mean warming up the crowd? It's a strip club. There's a couple of bachelorette parties here. Oh, Mike, please tell me you did. This was like Magic Mike part two. So naturally, we had to put a smile on my buddy's face, moreover. And I'm like, give me the mic.

I'm a mic guy, right? Yeah, I'll be like, ladies and gentlemen. And welcome coming in 6'4-1 with a huge piece from Buffalo, New York. Anyway, so I took the mic and two of my buddies, we just downed a couple drinks. The boys get out. They start dancing, and shirts are coming off. I will say, not everything came off. We did well.

It's all flying, you know. I know these guys are going to listen. We have, like, so not told so many of these, and these guys are going to listen. They're going to die laughing. But long story short, we brought. the heat we got the energy going we kept majority of our clothes out we had a great time doing it sounds fun but what does majority mean like how like because usually stripper meal strippers boxers one of the guys whatever you choose one of the guys has i'm a briefs guy but one of the guys

I'm going to throw it back to Bachelor days. Week one, the group date was, if we want to go back to Ben Higgins' days, it was the smell date. Oh, yeah.

Do you remember that? I didn't watch his season. I was like, oh, that's for the best. Anyway, basically the first week that we got to the house, I was super constipated. Yeah. I don't know if it was like the change of environment or stress or anything. But like I. Can I say a quick question.

What's up? Someone told me the other day there was a woman told me they were constipated. Like, how do you know? I've never been constipated. Because your stomach is huge and you want to shit. But you haven't pooped in like five years. pooped in like five days. That's a thing.

And it's like your stomach is like out to here. So anyway, the first group date comes around. I have not shit in like six days. And I'm like, what the f*** do I do? They said, you know, you have to wear athletic clothes. And I'm like, it looks like I'm pregnant. So I'm like. With a poop baby.

The night before I had been eating fiber bars, fiber cereal, everything. Nothing was happening. What's that tea they have? The laxative tea. They have laxative tea in the national dish. So anyway, I had been eating. I finally said, producers, you have to get me a laxative. It's the night before the date.

I was like, it'll happen that night. It'll be fine. So I take the laxative next morning, still nothing. And I'm like, oh, my God, I took a laxative. I haven't shit yet. Oh, boy. And we're going into the date. So we get to the date and they hand us.

Oh, and by the way, all the girls had synced up on their periods. So I hadn't shit in days and I was on my period. Wow. Great combo. Great combo. So that's a thing, too. Oh, yes. So we all synced up.

So we're all on our periods. So they give us our outfit for the date, and it's white spandex shorts that are like basically underwear and a white tank top. Do you go to anybody? It's horrible. So it starts by he has to smell us and see who he is most attracted to by smell. I remember hearing about this date. So we have to run on the treadmill. They're filming us from behind.

Oh, and so we're all like, we're going to bleed. I was at any point going to just have. diarrhea on the treadmill. There was eight of us all on our period. So after we run, he comes, we all stand in a line and his, he's blindfolded and he has to smell our neck, which we're like, okay, it's fine, you know, whatever. And then he has to smell like our down here, like our hip region. So we're all like.

Now I want to know what my hip region smells like. We're all thinking we smell like a combo of like bears, fish. I'm like, I probably shit my pants a little bit. Luckily, right before the treadmill, I had to, I shit my pants. Like, not my pants. I shit everywhere, but not in my pants. So the laxative work. Perfect.

But we were all, like, blood everywhere. And he was smelling all of our hips. Crime scene. It was like a crime scene in there. And we're all like, and somehow. It's a good thing I didn't get the bachelor. Yeah, you'll realize how gross clothes are. Oh, boy.

Somehow I won that smell portion. I have no idea how. But I don't even know how that's a confession. But it's just more of what happens behind the scenes on the show that you don't really know. That you all could have... Because you see all these girls in hot white spandex? You're like, wow. And then behind the scenes, you're like, oh, wow.

We're all running around, I haven't shit in like six days. Like, when the fuck do we do? And then we're all just bleating. everywhere and of course I don't know if Jason this is I'm done guys it's been real signing off the vine Jason good bye X OXO so I confess that I didn't shit my pants on national television I might have bled through some white spandex but that's still a great confession that's the shit that happens on the show that you don't see yeah so I got a little game together it's called Buffalo or Bluffalo

and I have facts about Buffalo and I made up facts myself about Buffalo and you have to tell me it's a great game shit out of me have fun wow by the way

because you claim to be a big Buffalo guy I'm a huge Buffalo guy but I haven't lived there since 2006 doesn't matter these are old facts these are old facts oh shit I'm a big Buffalo guy I'm a Seattle guy I ain't a Seattle girl

Buffalo we party harder than Seattle we have more fun than Seattle our weather's worse in Seattle and we smile on it, we eat better, we drink better, we are just cool. This is so villain. Maybe say this after the Buffalo facts. I'm like, you guys need to see LaDuke Alberta.

Don't you Google anything, Jason. I'm not. I got it. Work emails. He's texting. He's texting. He's texting. Are you texting them bitches?

Yes. Oh, no. I don't know that. Yes or no. Okay. So it's either, if it's a fact, do you say Buffalo? If you think I made it up, it's Bluffalo. Ready?

This is a great came. Do I have to play this? Yeah. Well, I certainly can't play this. This is the last segment of this podcast, and then you're out of here. I would just like to preface this by saying, majority of history facts, most people would fail. Well, let's go. Well, that's an excuse.

Air conditioner was invented in Buffalo. No, Syracuse, Carrier Dome. So Bluffalo. It's Buffalo. No, it's Buffalo. It was the air conditioner. Yeah. Okay, that's just not true.

Google it. Here's a fact. I'm going to tell you. Now, I might have to Google and be different, but Carrier. Okay, the fact that you did have an answer to that? Carrier is HVAC. Carriers known as air conditioner. And then if you go to Syracuse University, it was called the Carrier Dome because they were headquartered in Syracuse, New York. Anyone from Buffalo would assume that it was definitely invented in Buffalo because it's headquartered in Syracuse.

He's not making this game fun. Yeah, your game's so. Hey, now that was question one. Hey, that was question number one. Elvis Presley once flew his private jet from Memphis to Buffalo for Good Wings. 100% yes. He also performed. Luffalo.

Oh, because Elvis performed in Buffalo in 1960s. Yes, but he flew somewhere else to get a good cheeseburger. This is such bullshit. Oh, come on.

This is the game. All right, so that's true. That's true. But Elvis did perform in Buffalo. I believe you. And, uh, he just didn't fly. Look, he needs to like prove me wrong. If he, if he, if he needs someone

who's going to stand up to him. You know what? Shut up. Shut up. I also agree. I need to listen more. I need to listen better. Okay.

Yeah. Because you said other things. Rick James, bitch, was born and died there in Buffalo. Born and died. Born and buried. But, like, he was, he was like, he came out of the womb and then he passed away in Buffalo. Buried in Buffalo. Saying that's true.

Yeah, it is. Nice. There you go. Nice job. He's like, he needed that. He needed that. You know what? It was actually false.

He just needed it. Yeah, he's just kidding. It was true. It was true. Bruce Almighty was filmed in Buffalo. Yes. Yeah, true. The Playboy Manxie.

The city burned down when the Sabres won the Stanley Cup and Bruce Almighty. Yeah. That's in the show. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I actually just watched it. And let me tell you, if the Buffalo Sabers won the Stanley Cup or the Buffalo Bills won the Super Bowl, the city will burn down. I'm sorry, but it won't happen. The first Playboy Mansion was built in Buffalo.

No, false. Correct. You have to say Bluffalo. Play my game. Play my little game. I get so excited. It's illegal to throw a snowball at someone unless it's in a designated area. So what I'll tell you is this, that's not at all Buffalo language, but that is New York State language.

So I'm going to say that is true. Yes, it's true. Isn't that crazy? You can't throw it. There's designated. I actually kind of like that role. In Buffalo, we would say, let's throw you through a goddamn table and then drink a blue light and have a great day. New York State says otherwise.

Okay, it's my last one. Buffalo is home of the Twinkies So Buffalo is home of Cheerios and General Mills We get it, you're a big buffalo He's a big buffalo But Buffalo is not home of hostess or Twinkies Bluffalo Correct
