Okay, let's talk about the original enemies to lovers story. Before all of our reality TV couples, before the rom-coms, we binge, there was Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy in pride and prejudice. And Audible has just dropped a brand new original that will have you completely hooked, I am. It's not just any audiobook. This is a full cast performance. So Marisa Abella, you might know her from industry, brings Elizabeth Bennett to life.

And Harris Dickinson from Baby Girl and Where the Crawdads sing is Mr. Darcy. And honestly, the chemistry, you guys, it's everything. Plus, you've got icons like Glenn Close, Bill Nye and Will Polter in the mix. Talk about a dream cast. Now, what I love is how Marissa pulls you right into Lizzie's world, her stubbornness, her wit, her messy family dynamics, and of course, her complicated feelings for Darcy. And with a vibrant new adaptation and original score by Grammy-nominated composer, it just feels so fresh and modern while still keeping that timeless Jane Austen charm.

So whether it's your first time experiencing Pride and Prejudice or you've read it a million times, you're going to fall absolutely in love all over again. So go listen to Pride and Prejudice now at audible.ca slash Jane Austen. The following program is a podcast.1.com presentation. Okay. Are you ready to shake things up? Yes, I am. Well, Caitlin Bristow is creating a space where girls and Jets can feel empowered to be themselves. Because there's more to life than Instagram, right? What's that supposed to mean?

Welcome to Off the Vine with Caitlin Bristow. Now here's Caitlin. Okay, welcome to Off the Vine on Podcast One. I'm Caitlin Bristow, your host, and I feel like right off the bat, I need to apologize and just in advance for what I might say when I'm doing wine. Doing wine. Like, you know, when you go with your friends, you're like, let's do alcohol tonight. I apologize.

Or am I sorry? I don't know. We have a very special guest today. He was the winner of season 11's The Bachelorette, soon to be an Ironman, which means I feel like I have to call him Iron Daddy for the rest of my life. Not so bad on the old eyes. A real American hero, some would say. Wow. The one and only Sean Booth, aka Sean B.

I will never give you an intro like that again. I know. Thank you for that, babe. Can we get a copy of that and can I play it at the house every single day? Well, unfortunately, yes, you can because this is a podcast. So, yes, but please don't. I feel like that was a one-time thing, and I'm going to take you down a notch from here on out. All right.

Well, I liked every second of it. So thank you, and thank you for having me. I must say you look like natural over there. I feel like a natural. I always thought I had a face for a podcast. Get out of here. You don't agree with me? It's my first one, and you're my first guess.

It is, but I feel like you were born for this, right? I do, too. I really do. You just have a bottle of wine and a microphone in front of your face. And that's all I need. And that's all you need. In life. Really, it is.

How do you keep Caitlin happy? That's a question for you. You give her a bottle of wine and a microphone. And really, you would agree with that. Absolutely. I mean, if these people see you on Snapchat, which I'm sure they do, they can see how entertaining you are. I mean, that's what I said about, you know, I could have had a co-host, but I'm like, you know, I entertain myself. You have a very, a rich.

talent we can just sit in front of the phone and just record yourself and be entertaining where most people that's awkward for them like when snapchat happened I was like thank you world this is what I've been waiting for and there it is and now I get to share it with the world okay well first podcast this is exciting um I feel like I've overthought this a lot like what should we talk about how do I start it but I think like people would enjoy just hearing about our week because usually it's entertaining and usually we have something going to on and i mean you're doing so much training with the iron man and it's super annoying yes it is super annoying i feel like our week is like okay so when are you going to be back from the gym and you're

like probably tomorrow pretty much i wake up usually moaning and groaning from the pain that my body of your body yes not from me and then throughout the rest of the day it's training and eating and playing with doodle. That sounds really weird unless people know who our dog is. Yes, we should probably clarify that. Doodle is our dog, aka Tucker Doodle. But Sean just said he plays with doodle and it sounded really funny. But yeah, no, it's hard.

I wanted to talk about our week just because I obviously like talking about real things and things that just go on in our lives. And I don't like to sugarcoat things. Everyone's like, oh, you guys are such a perfect couple. And I'm like, let's talk about when we aren't. And let's talk about times when it's not relationship goals. Like, it's so, I'm so proud of you for training for the Iron Man. And it's such a commitment and you are so dedicated.

And obviously I'm not going to complain about your beautiful body. But like the time that you spend away from the house is so annoying. And then I feel like I'm super lazy because if I get to the gym once I'm happy, like a week and you go twice a day. I'm going to take a simple one until you talk. Yes, go for it. It is very difficult being in your position. Like you said, you don't love the fitness side of things like I do. But having to sit there and watch somebody go train four or five hours a day can't be easy.

No. And you're doing great. Thanks, babe. You're welcome. Did you hear that world? I'm doing great. But we do need to get another car because we have one car right now. Oh, I thought you were going to say dog.

Yeah, that's another thing. Like, I think if anyone asks, like, what do you argue about? Right now, it's who has the car. And it's usually you and I Uber, which is totally fair because you make the car payments. But it's our main problem right now, I would say. Probably, yeah. Which I mean isn't that bad of a problem. We're doing okay, aren't we?

We're doing all right. We're doing okay. Yeah, another thing like I, this week, was it this week or last week when this will air that I posted a picture and did the hashtag, real Instagram and I wanted to know your input or what you think about girls on Instagram like obviously it's aesthetically pleasing to some for girls Instagram page but don't you want like don't you want as a male to see girls on Instagram and if you met them in real life feel like oh yeah it's them and not be like whoa yeah what as a male don't you think 100 percent I feel like in today's day and age right I'm lucky

because I found you and I'm out of the dating world but if I were a guy in the dating world as a single guy right now it would be so scary out there because you have all these pictures on social media

and guys do it too everybody filters and does the perfect angle everybody's guilty of it including us and then you get into real life and it's like whoa wait a minute that's not what I was expecting

and I feel like it gives everybody this false sense of, I guess, reality. Yeah. And it's dangerous. And it's also wrong because we talk about this. We have little nieces. Yeah. And we just picture them like growing up in this world where all they have is social media.

And then I can't even imagine the bullying that's going on in school nowadays. I was so fragile. Even in like high school and junior high that if I think about social media being a thing back then, like I would not be okay. Yeah. It'd be brutal. Instead of people just like writing mean notes, they can just send you messages directly to your Instagram or your Facebook. And they can make private accounts and you would never know where it came from. Exactly. It's brutal. It's scary.

It's so scary. But hopefully. What you're doing is amazing in the real Instagram and that is catching on, which is so cool to see. If you haven't seen it, Caitlin posted a picture last week and it's just no makeup, no filters. And that wasn't easy. and it's just hey here I am I'm a real person this is what I look like beautiful of course and we just want to see more of that and obviously I'm still going to post pretty pictures with filters and and Photoshop and do all that because it's I mean that's never going to stop but as long as we mix in like a real one once in a while I think I think that will make a difference if everyone can start doing that so that's a movement I'm going to start

On to things that, I mean, talking about real and reality, let's talk about reality TV. Oh, right? Because that's real, right? Everything you see on TV is 100% real. There's nothing fake about it. We watched the first episode of this Bachelorette season with Rachel. Yes, and that for me was the first episode that I have watched since our finale. Did it bring you back to Night 1 when we had met?

because we really haven't been into a season since ours because it's, I mean, let's be honest, it gives us full-blown anxiety attacks. But it's also where we came from and how we met. And I thought watching it would bring back memories and be like, but it made me be like, oh, remember when that's how we met? And we have that for the rest of our lives. So did it bring you back to night one when we met? It did.

Watching the entrances and all that good stuff, it definitely brought me back. And watching it with you was super cool. but I was also thinking like holy cow I can't believe that that's what we did it seems like so long ago and I'm gonna interrupt you because I feel like you're about to make the joke where you say you voted for Brit I did vote for Brit which nobody knows

he didn't wait for the headlines for this first podcast Sean B voted for Brit who's engaged by the way very excited for congratulations but no go on yeah that's the ongoing joke but yeah I mean night one is awesome right watching it It is so much fun.

Being a part of it is so much fun. Like you go through this crazy casting process that's weeks, and then you go in these hotel rooms that you have to stay in for a few days and do all these testings and all this stuff, no phones. But then the moment it gets real is once you're in that limo, and then you roll right up that driveway, and it really does feel like you're entering like some fairy tale, like this other world.

It is another world. It is. It's crazy. And you have the lights. You've seen it all on TV, and then you get out of the limo, and you're expecting music to play, and then you're like, wait, it's silent. This is really awkward. Completely silent. Like, there's no sound at all.

Yeah, it's awkward. And it's super intense. And for us, I think there wasn't as much pressure because there's two bacheloretts. Yeah, the pressure was all on the ladies. Yeah, which is. Which is so wrong. Yes. But, I mean, you guys had the power for, like, technically it was two nights because we filmed our night one over.

two nights, which is another story. But the pressure was so much on it. I'm like, I hate that the men have the power here as a feminist. I was not okay with it. Big feminist guy over there. But I dealt with it because I was like, oh, well, there is this guy named Sean B and I'll stick it out for him. You know, I mean, the limo that I had was pretty epic.

Who's in your limo? Who's in your limo? Ryan McDill. We were the first limo to come up to you ladies. Oh, you were? Just kidding, I know. And we had myself, Ben Higgins, Joshua Albers, the Iowan, no, not the... Iowa, is that what they're called?

Yeah. Idaho. He's from Idaho. Yeah, Idaho. And then we had Ian, your buddy. Oh. Yeah. Oh.

And we had the drunk guy, Josh McDill, which was... No, no, babe. Ryan McDill. Yeah. He was the best. What a beauty What would have happened If he didn't get kicked off that first night

Like how far He could be sitting here right now Doing the podcast If he didn't drink as much That first night I mean he was a good guy He was good looking He was hilarious

But he just got hammered And it was awesome It was the greatest thing ever And you think with Bachelor And producers and everything That would have been gold For them to keep around I know

But I don't think you can get into like When he slapped your butt And then you get into a salt That wasn't cool. Yeah, that wasn't cool. But the best part about that was is before you go on The Bachelor or The Bachelorette, right, all of your family and friends, they all say the same thing. Don't be that drunk guy night one. And it's like, he came in there and was like, don't worry, you guys.

I got it. I'm going to be the drunk guy. Just let me do my thing. Is it bad that my family thought that was going to be me on Chris Sol season? I think that was you, right? Well, it was, but they hit it. They hit it. Yeah, they had to.

because if you if you went home the first or second episode they wouldn't be together we want to be together but they also would have not had to hid everything right but i'm telling you here's a funny little inside story that on night one when i was on chris soul season we had to do these things called pickups where like a few weeks later i had to put on my outfit from night one and they'd be like okay katelyn tell me about when you saw the first impression rose what you were thinking and i was like oh, I wasn't there. They're like, well, you were, you were there, tell us what you were thinking. I'm like, no, I wasn't there.

I never saw the first impression rose. And then come night one of watching it, they bring out the first impression rose. And here I am standing up in front of everybody saying, who thinks they deserve this? And I'm like, okay, I was there. So I mean, I get it. But Ryan McDill was the drunkest of all drunks they've ever had on the show. And it was so interesting. The camera people and the audio people who have been there from season one even said that he was the drunkest guy that they have seen in the 20 whatever seasons.

Which is so funny. It was great. It was great. And I remember when they were like, we send him home. I was like, dang. Yeah. I mean, that would have made, I mean, not that Tony the healer didn't make good TV, but Ryan McDill. What would have happened?

And it was just funny because, you know, you have a bunch of guys that are just like, oh, this is so wrong. not be here. And then I remember them like showing shots of me in the background. I'm just cracking up, loving it. I remember watching that because I obviously got the episodes a few days in advance just to mentally prepare myself and I had to write blogs. And I remember loving that you were just laughing in the back because you were like, I mean, you could not have played that any better on your night one. Like you were so sweet and genuine. And when you came out of the limo, you like grab my hands. I'm like, I don't care if his hands feel like, man hands.

Side note, I have old wrinkly man hands that I need to moisturize hourly. And I didn't care. No. I was like, he is so good looking and such a gentleman. And when you first came out of the limo, you, like, thanked the limo driver for opening the door for you. And I was like, wow, what a gentleman. And then you were so polite to Britt because she is a sweetheart and none of us deserve to be in that position. And you were so sweet to her. and I was like please please don't be here for her

and you came right over to me after being very polite to her and said like no I'm here for you and you were so nervous I was so nervous we watched that clip the other night and my voice was like shaking shaking I was just so nervous and because the buildup is so crazy too because they tell you to get ready in the hotel yeah at five or six p.m.

Oh really for me it was like 2 p.m. Yeah worse for you they say that's girls though put on your suit get ready we're leaving soon and then so you're in a hotel room completely by yourself nothing no cell phones no internet any of that stuff anyways you sit there for probably five to six hours just getting in your own head yeah that's what they want and so you're i'm just pacing around the room like oh my gosh what's going to happen yeah and then finally come 11 12 o'clock then they pick you up in the limo and you're like game on here we go Game on is right.

Were you drunk? No, I was not drunk, but I had a couple drinks in the limo. Yeah, of course. Some champagne. Uh-huh. But like we were saying, I was with Ryan McDill, who was... Chugging Fireball. He was drunk.

My hero. Yeah, he was drunk as soon as we met in the hotel lobby to go in the limo, and he pounded a bottle of champagne, and then he was so drunk on the limo ride, and it got to the point where it was just me and him waiting to go out to meet you ladies. Yeah. and he was just so sloppy and he was like handing me all these drinks and I'm like so nervous I'm sitting outside the door they're like all right Sean you're next get ready get ready and then here I am about to walk out to meet you guys and then Ryan McDale is hanging all over me drunk like trying to give me shots you're like oh I'm gonna look good yes you know what's really funny is nobody really knows this but a couple names got released before they took my phone away as the bachelor at well when I thought I could be the bachelorette and so my sister's sister messaged me and she was like, there's this guy named Ryan McDill and he's Nikki Farrell's ex-boyfriend who won one Pablo season.

Same one is so funny. She won it. And she's like, he's so hot and blah, blah, blah, blah. She was like talking him up. And when he came out of the limo, when he came out of the limo, he goes, honey, I'm home. I was like, no. No. So he was like, my sister set the bar high for him.

And I was like, ooh, I'm going to be watching for this Ryan McDill character. And it comes out just guns blazing, which I can't fault and for because I did that too. You did. But I was so disappointed so quickly, but also so entertained. And I feel like you just need that. Like, okay, who else was in your limo? Ben Higgins. Tell me about that.

So Ben Higgins, he was in my limo and. AKA the last bachelor. Yeah, one of the greatest bachelors they've ever had in history. one of my great buddies now we became best friends on the show they call him the perfect ben why didn't i get a name like that i know that's a good one um but in the limo ride all i could think about was this guy ben who was sitting right next me i'm like one he's really young two he is super nervous like we all i mean of course you have to be you're not human if you're not you're a robot if you're not nervous i don't know if i feel a suit it looks like a little big on him and

Mr. Fashion icon over here. Yeah, because when you get in that situation, right, everybody's just sizing everybody up. Of course. And so anyways, we got out of the limo. I felt good about my entrance. I came in, and he was sitting on the couch because he came up before me,

and he was, like, super upset because he didn't do well. He didn't think he did well with the entrance. And he was upset and kind of kick himself the whole night. So I thought that this guy was going home night one. Yeah. I was wrong. You were.

a little wrong to his defense that he redeemed himself after night one and yeah the rest of history he became we became best friends on that show and then he went on to be the bachelor and he was awesome as the bachelor but it's funny going from night one to seeing everything that's unfolded you know sense and it's so hard because obviously him and loren didn't work out but i i just want everybody to know like that's okay and those relationships are so hard to maintain and they are young and it's just, I mean, it's too bad and they're both going to learn from it and they're both better people from knowing each other. And I mean, I don't think they, either one of them have any regrets.

They're both living their best lives now. Yeah. And I think we say this all the time too is that we could totally understand why these relationships don't work. Because a lot of relationships don't work. A lot of relationships outside of reality TV don't work. A lot of them in reality TV. And, I mean, once you get engaged on the bachelor,

a bachelor or a bachelorette, then you start to find out the other person. Yeah. You get engaged and then you start dating. Exactly. I don't know if people know the story, but the funniest thing when Sean and I got engaged, I mean, I couldn't believe we got to ride in a limo home together without a camera. I was like, is this weird? No, it's not weird.

It was weird. And then we had a couple days to spend together. And then I had to go do like a photo shoot for People magazine to say like, I'm engaged, even though I didn't, that's a whole other story. But I left to go for the magazine shoot and I turned back and I was like, oh, I'm going to miss you. And he goes, wait, what's your phone number? Yeah. And I'm like, how crazy is that?

Wait, what is my life? What's happening? I just got engaged to a guy who doesn't know my phone number. By the way, my middle name is Dawn. Like, that's the first time that I ever heard that. I didn't even know your middle name was Don until just now. Yeah, okay. A little late for that.

A little late for that. But it's so weird. So I totally understand how these relationships don't work. And if you take, we always say if you take 10 random couples off the street, you know, like probably nine of them won't work. Yeah. And then you throw it into reality TV and everything that comes with it. Like, gosh, how are we still together? I don't know.

How is this working? It's like 20 plus years in Bachelor World, basically, right? Yeah, like dog years. Yeah. We, yeah, you know, like, um, like in Hollywood, we are like, obviously not Hollywood, but in, like, Brandelina, that was, like, insane how long they lasted. Yeah. Because in, in the public eye, it's, it's actually really hard.

It is. But anyways, I love talking about our night one because it was just so romantic and special, even though, like, to me, it felt like no one else was there except for you and Cupcake. Yes, Cupcake was the best, is the best. It's still to this day, like, now I'm like, are these people even real coming on or is this a business now? Like, do they come in, want to followers or are they coming in? Because Cupcake was Chris, if you don't know him. He is one of the best guys that you'll ever meet in your life.

And his entrance was just... Epic. Oh, I hate that word. Epic. Nope, I'll never say that word. That will go down. I agree. As top three entrances of all time.

I agree. And I call it the e-word because I'll never use it, but you're right, it was. It was legendary. For those of you who don't know, it's Chris and we gave him the name Cupcake because of his entrance. Naturally. He came storming up the driveway in this crazy little Cupcake Mobile with just his head sticking out. I'm hilarious. Like I was like, this is the best.

And he was just smiling. And he's a dentist. So he's got like the most beautiful smile. and he's just like cruising up in a cupcake with the biggest smile on his face and I was like what is going on and then he swooped in oh he killed it he killed it he kissed me before you did I know he got the first kiss I and I was shocked I was so taking back I was like oh uh we're Sean no but he did but I love telling behind the scene stuff tell people about how you and Cupcake were both from Nashville oh this is a great what happened at the bar one night. Yeah. Before the show, before you even knew you were going on the show, before you two were, you found this out when you saw him in the mansion, you figured this all out.

Tell us the story. We're sitting in the main room. At this point, all the guys have come in from the limos and the cupcakes, and we're all hanging out, and I get a tap on my shoulder, I turn around, and it's Chris. He goes, dude, he goes, the last time I saw you, he goes, do you remember? And I'm like, what? He goes, I saw you. you in Nashville and I'm like okay and he goes we were at this bar for this party and I was like

okay I do remember that and he goes I tapped on your shoulder and I showed you a picture on my phone I was like oh my god you're right so Chris came up to me in Nashville months before we even knew we were going on the show he had a picture it was a meme and it said watch out for this guy because this guy will steal your girl it was guys who had your haircut yes and it was a guy It was like three different guys with different haircuts and beard styles And there was one of the guys that looked exactly like me Had the same hair, same beard

Mr. Steele your girl Yeah, so he goes He just looks at me He points at the picture, he goes Don't you steal my girl And then turns around Walks away And then the next time you see him

Is in the Bachelor Mansion When you guys are both trying to steal the same girl And then to make the story better Then he got the first kiss Yeah But then I got the first impression rose. Oh, man. So we were walking in the hallway back from the mansion after night one.

And we're on the same floor. We're going to bed. I go, hey, stole your girl. Boom, mic drop. See you later. Yeah. It's insane. That is actually insane.

You know how, like, that guy came in on Rachel's Night One who had a drum set and the whole band, like, just totally overcompensating? I was just going to ask you this. As a bachelorette standing outside of that mansion, what were you looking for for entrances? I mean, everybody, there's either completely over the top, like the band or like a guy came in a hot tub car with us. See, overcompensating.

Yeah. Riding in on a cupcake, undercompensating. Exactly, exactly. Good for him, said a lot about his confidence. Yes. But I loved, like, obviously it was so fun to watch different people coming up in different ways into the Bachelor Mansion because that's just so part of the production of it.

Right. But I loved the classic limo. I don't have to say that because it's you. But I loved that you just came out as a gentleman without any. I mean, but you think about it. And I said some pretty inappropriate things out of my limo for Chris. You did. But I was like, hey, you know what?

If he's going to like me, he's going to have to know that I have a trucker mouth and I'm very inappropriate. And I'm Canadian and I'm a little offside. I would have been completely like You would have been like bye No I wouldn't have been by If you came up to me If say I was standing there where Chris was And you walked out of the limo

And you had said What was your line? I can't say it You can't say it That's how bad it was Yeah I'd be like whoa I wouldn't even know what to say I dropped an F bomb

Yep Talked about plowing him Yes But he's a farmer so it's funny Right Was funny Funny Yeah.

You know what? I would be like, whoa, this girl is pretty crazy. Yeah, and I am. Holy cow, what just happened? All right, we'll talk to her later. But what was that? Don't you totally get it, though, knowing me? Aren't you like that's so something you would say?

Yeah, it was great. So I just wanted to, you know, put it all out there and be like, hey, take it or leave it, bruh. That's it. But, yes, I agree that if you were to go on the batch or the bachelorette, I just think it's so, like, classic, like, get out of the limo. here I am what's up you know in this day and age like this is such a weird reference I'm about to make but I feel like it works you know everybody has tattoos and like the guys that don't you're like wow good for you that's this guy right here you don't he just flexed I'm so glad you guys can't see this he just flexed and smacked his own bicep but that's what I mean it's like

you don't hear about it anymore that's why I don't I really want to get tattoos and I go back and forth, and I'm also like, it's kind of badass. No, don't. I actually love that you don't. Unless we get a matching one. Well, actually, you have to get the Iron Man one. I don't have to. Yes, you do.

Everybody says that. But don't you want to be like, yo, what's up, Iron Man? Yeah, but I don't need a tattoo to say that. Oh, you just have to know yourself. I'm just going to wear my... As long as I call you Iron Daddy, you're happy. Iron Daddy. I'm going to get my Iron Man medallion and just wear it everywhere I go.

Oh, gross. Gross. No, I will be, I can't wait to watch you do that. But we're going to take a quick break, but stay tuned for more. Today on Geffen Playhouse Unscripted, we are joined by actor, producer, director, author. What else can you do, Brian Cranston? I sweep floors. You do?

And I load a dishwasher really, really well. Do you unload it? Not to minute. Okay. We can give you a job in our house. The talent is loading it, not unloading. No, the talent is buying the dishes that fit together and not the dishes that are I buy that don't fit in the dishwasher.

Well, I could teach you how they can fit. Okay, Brian. Thank you. That's Brian Cranston on Geffen Playhouse unscripted. Be sure to listen on Podcast One or through the Podcast One app and Apple Podcasts. This is Off the Vine with Caitlin Bristow. I keep getting lost in what we're talking about. I know.

We're still talking about night one. That was the first. Have we even talked about Rachel's? Who's your favorite? All right. Who's your dark horse right now? My dark horse. I'm not good with names.

I will. And we don't know any spoilers here. Uh-uh, we don't. We don't know who wins. We could, but we don't. Yes. I will say this, though, the guy that got the first impression rose, I am willing to bet a lot of money that he will not be the winner of the season. Really?

Because Jordan got the first impression rose last season. I got the first impression rose the season before, and we both went on to quote-unquote win. Do you think that there's any chance that the producers or anybody's going to look at, let that happen again. There's no way. But maybe it'll be like that thing where they're like, well, we've done it so many times that people will think that we're not going to go there, but we do just to make them think that we're not going there.

I guess I see her come, but before me, there's only one other guy. So then that would be three guys. Roberto. And there'd be three guys in a row who got the first impression rows. And plus, I just watching him kiss, that was pretty brutal. It was aggressive. It was. That was an aggressive makeout.

Both times. I mean, good for him. He went in there. but um favorites i like that guy from was it wisconsin oh you don't know names but you know where they come from yeah was it peter oh yeah he was great but that's because you know why he got good music yeah we're brainwashed to think that he's the one but which he could be but i liked him yeah he seemed cool he seemed like a very normal i don't think his entrance wasn't that good it wasn't anything special what if he hears you say that

No, he did good. Yeah, but we like him. He didn't have to do anything over the top. They showed him first, right? They showed him first out of the limo. And for everybody, listen, that's not the order. The order that you see on TV is not the order that actually happens. Okay, we won't tell too many secrets.

But I think he just went up and said, how you doing? Yeah, he was just himself. Yeah, nothing over the top. He was totally chill. He was cool. He didn't even seem nervous. I'm sure he was. Yeah, he played it cool, though.

But, I mean, we have to talk about Woboom. Wabom is so happy we're talking about him. He is. He is so happy the world is talking about him. That's all anybody has talked about since episode one. And he's so happy. I feel like that's why he went there. He's selling T-shirts.

I'll buy one. Yeah, see, there you go. He did good. No, stop selling Wabom. You've already sold. I mean, he was great entertainment. I think he was, like, people were like, no. I'm like, yes, yes, well, boom.

You know what you're doing. You're trying to, like, brand yourself. He's guaranteeing him. And everybody's talking about it. You're the only crazy one. He was like the Ryan McDill of the season in a different way. And he was funny. Remember when that guy was calling him out?

Like, you're not here for the right reasons. Oh, boo. The first couple hours. Like, he hasn't even had enough time to go through the process. I mean, I remember saying, I will never. saying anything like that but i found myself like coming week six week seven like i don't think he's here for the right reason oh i know but that's when you're in it yeah night one you're like settle down buddy this is for fun and wabu was so funny remember that guy called him out i don't

remember this guy's name but he was like oh um you're not here blah blah blah to find love and he was like touche man too yeah no he's he said i'm not here wearing uh my slogan on a t-shirt oh yeah i boom was like woboom's like touche yeah he was not even mean or defensive he was like you're right buddy no um but the other guys i don't nobody really stood out to me a couple of those guys seem very cocky right like they were just saying they were gonna marry her and all this oh yeah those are always the ones to go to yeah and like oh shocker that she kept wabum obviously he's getting the last rose have we not watched this for 30 seasons i was just gonna say for anybody that was actually surprised at that no have you never seen this show before

And maybe they haven't, and now they know. Okay, well, now you know. Like, of course, Wabom is going to get the final rose. Of course. He'll probably be there another two to three episodes, I'd have to say. Yeah, and enjoy it. Exactly. Enjoy it.

Because if he didn't get the final rose, if she didn't, if he didn't get the final rose, and. Or maybe she does marry him. Maybe. I'd be so pumped. I think he's already on his way to paradise right now. He's probably there. He's probably there already, yeah. Just practicing his Wabom.

Yep. Can you do it? I can't. I refuse. I am not a Wabom guy. I couldn't even imagine you making, like, fun of it. It just looks like it hurts. It does.

It looks painful. It does. And the best part, too, he gets the final rose, and he just lets out a huge Wabom. You knew it was coming. It would be rude if he didn't. And the guys that were just sitting there who didn't get a rose. Wait, what if people aren't watching, and they're like, what is this Wabom nonsense? Now they're going to have to go watch.

And you're welcome Wabom. Yes. For more go. Google searches. It was great. But as far as the other guys, we have to watch another episode or two to see who we're really like.

First night's kind of tough. I'm trying to think of who on my night one. Like, who's that guy? He was like a volleyball player or something and you really liked him. Oh, no. Brad. Was his name Brad?

I don't know. There was a guy that I was, yeah, very close with night one. I spent most of my time chat with him. He was a super normal guy. He was funny. Yeah. He was a great guy.

And I thought for sure that he would be going pretty far and then you didn't even give him a rose night one i was like what what a savage yeah yeah i don't know there's just so many to choose from you know that's tough how do you even pick night one sometimes i didn't even know like i remember picking who i really like now ryan um what was his not ryan mcdell what was his last name from florida beckett right i don't know but i really So I went to the back

And I remember being like Okay, I know I'm calling this Ryan guy's name And I went out to the front And I was like holding up this rose And I'm like Ryan And I just looked down Because I'm like I knew I wanted this Ryan guy To stay around but I don't remember who he was

And he walked up I'm like ah yeah yeah that guy Yeah he's a good guy He is a good guy He's a really good guy I think he did a couple episodes on Paradise But this is all very much Bachelorette talk

But I feel like what would people expect From two people who met on The Bachelorette and we're successful. Some would say we're a success story. Some would say. Doodle might disagree because he sees the real behind the scenes. He does. We should start posting some of our fights to Instagram.

That's a good idea. Well, I don't know if people want to see that, though. I think it'd be great. Do you? Do you? Okay. Well, next time you're... Next time you're a D-bag, I'm going to...

Here we go. Should I start recording right now? Here it is. Oh, edit this part out. Um, should we do some rapid fire questions? I feel like when I tweeted, like, does anybody have questions for Sean B? I've never got a response like that. What?

A good response? Bad response? Well, it depends what you call good. You're saying you never got a response as far as the amount of questions? The people really wanted to ask you questions. And I told you not to look. I haven't looked. I told you not to look because I didn't want you to.

And I wanted this to be very authentic and organic. So, usually in this part of the podcast, I'm going to make it, like, kicking it with Caitlin and I'll do some unfiltered advice. But since I've got Sean B in the studio, I'm going to ask you some questions. I don't think you need to keep calling my name by my last initial. You love it. I do love it. You call yourself, Sean B. I do not call my...

Yes, I do. You do. To you, like, joking around in the house. Yeah, you don't, like, refer to yourself in third. person saying Sean B when you talk to people. When I talk to you and doodle, I refer to myself as Sean B. You and your doodle.

Okay. These are people who follow us on Twitter who want to know. I love these questions. I picked my favorite, obviously. We're only going to do five. I see where this is going. We're only going to do five.

All right. Okay. So first question and my personal favorite is from Bethany Wilson. I think it's at Bethany Wilson. She asks what it's like to be engaged to a legitimate goddess, queen, leading light for women today. Wow.

Yes. What is it like? And I would like to thank her for her honesty. And now it's all you, Sean, Booth. I'm just speechless. There are no words to convey what it feels like to be engaged to a goddess. It's a feeling. You can't put it into words.

A queen, a leading lady. A goddess. A goddess. It is pretty cool to see, though, because I do see the influence that. this woman right here has on other women all over the country. I mean, all over, I mean, there's other countries. It's pretty insane. It's moving.

I cry on a daily basis reading people's nice messages. And like, I laugh at the mean ones and I'll call them out. But I cry and it means something to me for the nice ones. Yeah. I came home the other day and Caitlin was in the kitchen and she was crying. I was like, uh-oh, what did I do now? Is it that time? And she said she was just going through all these nice messages that she got, which is pretty incredible to see.

But yeah, I mean, especially in today's day and age, with the social media, with all the hate, with all the negativity, I mean, this girl handles herself extremely well. And she is a influence for everybody. And it's amazing to sit back and watch. And I'm very proud of her. Gosh, we're so proud of each other today. We should podcast more often. I feel like it's when we get our real, like, nice feelings out. Yeah.

Like at home, I'm like, oh, do you really need to leave that dish in the sink again? And really, did you not blah, blah, blah? And here it's like, this is our, like, happy place where we just talk about what we love about each other. And I think we should do this more often. Yeah, but let's be clear about one thing. You actually leave more dishes in the sink than I do. Do I? You do.

I hate that. But you always give me crap for that. Really? And I always come. I always clean everything up. Well, you're so good about not saying anything. Yes. Pick your battles, Sean B.

Oh, I don't call myself, Sean B. Okay, the next one is from at Maddie, I don't know, Cruz. Maddie Cruz? Is it a girl or a boy, Maddie? I don't think I have boys who follow me, to be honest. Yeah, you do. I can name one of them. Oh, yeah, we won't. Don't, don't. Okay, something you found out about Caitlin after the show.

This is our, I know. Why did you pick this one? You know, we have so much trouble with this one, and this is like the one thing we get asked in every interview and we never know we never know what to say um one thing i've learned is that i'm lazy i like to sleep i was going to say maybe say i'm good at sleeping the girl loves her sleep she's very good at it she's one of the best thank you for saying that you're welcome sweet of you um okay next one is from her her name on twitter was like small fry and it's at tea fry rice.

All right. What is your favorite thing about Rick? How have we not talked about Rick and Donna yet? Oh, man.

Favorite thing about Rick? Andy's right ear listening, so you better be nice. You should probably explain who Rick and Donna.

Rick and Donna is our alter ego. Altra ego. Yeah. And I'm Rick and Sean's Donna, but it's a face swap.

And Rick is just a straight up beautician. He's like one of the, I feel like he's Canadian. And I feel like he likes

go to AHL American Hockey League games and do the teddy bear toss. And he's just a real treat. And you have to follow us on Snapchat to figure it out. So there, snapback bean is my Snapchat. Shameless plug for my Snapchat. Then you'll figure it out. But anyways, what's your favorite thing about Rick? Well, let's get this straight.

Nobody is a bigger fan of Rick than Sean B. I mean, I love Rick Daddy. You do. And it comes to a point during the day where I'm just like, babe, come hang out with me. like, I want to see Rick. Like, sometimes I resent Rick. She, like, hates it. She's like, I don't want to do Rick.

I'm like, babe, come on. I resent Rick because I'm like, can I just hang out with you as your fiancé, Caitlin, or do I have to be Rick? But it's great, because I'm the only person in the world that gets to hang out with Rick. And I actually feel like it's a completely different person. So when I'm looking straight at the screen on Snapchat, and I see Rick, but you're next to me. You somewhat love him because he has your face. I love it. I just love Rick.

Like, he's the coolest. He is, and he doesn't care. He doesn't care. No. And he's kind of cute. He doesn't care about the latest trends. He's, like, grossly cute. He's grossly cute.

But when we were doing those snaps when it was Sean B. and Rick, I mean, those are the best. I had a blast. We need to bring those back. Yeah, I miss them. So what's your favorite thing about, Rick? Oh, man. There's... His face?

You would. No. I mean, everything about him. Just his voice probably. Yeah. I love his voice. I'm talking about him like it's not me. Okay. And Breanne at Breanne underscore Garrett.

How have you and Caitlin grown as a couple since the engagement? Oh, man. There's some serious questions here. Yeah, I went deep. I picked the deep ones. The deep ones. Secretly, I just wanted to sit here and listen to you say nice things about me. How have we grown since the engagement? Well, I think we just, nope, nope, this is you. Go. Go for you. go for you

go for you I feel like I don't know maybe we understand each other more and there's a lot more balance and I think relationship is very hard

and you have to work at it continually we are always trying to figure each other out and I don't think that will ever stop yeah I don't think that will ever stop

we're very different in a lot of ways but also very similar if that's a thing you're so right we are you are Yang and Yang. Yes.

But, like, who we are as people are very similar, like, our hearts and our, like, morals and I feel like how we've grown up and our families. Like, I feel like we have so many similarities in that way. But who we are as people, like, you are so quiet and laid back. And I am so annoying and in your face. Yeah. I don't know if I'm quiet. I think to the outside.

Yeah, no, not to me. You're hilarious. But to, like, family and friends, I've never been called, like, quiet. No, no, no, I just mean like. But for outside looking in, yes, when I'm with you all the time, I am very quiet. I think anyone next to me seems quiet, and that's the problem, but it's not a problem. Tell them what your mom says to you before we go and do interviews. Every time we do an interview on TV or for a magazine or for podcasts or anything, my mom texts me and says, let Sean talk.

And then I don't. And then she doesn't. And when I do, he's like, oh, God, why were you making me answer all the questions? No, yeah. Okay, moving on. Moving on. Here we go. Moving on.

I've got two more. Christy McComber. I don't know how to say anything. Do you think if you two met in a random bar, your relationship would be what it is now? Yes. We always say this. It's so wild that we met on a TV show like The Bachelorette. But really, I'm Canadian, you're American.

Like, I don't know how we would have met any other way. but if we did meet in a bar, I think we would have hit it off. We would have. I would have been on my A game. It would have been dangerous because before we were going on the show, I think we were both who were kind of party animals. Yeah.

And so if me and you were both out at the bar and our party prime. Party prime. And our party prime, who knows what would have happened. Yeah, we would have just. Who knows if we would have even remembered seeing each other. Sean B. Yes, we would have.

And I think our relationship is probably stronger now than what it would be if we met in a bar. Um, but I do think we would have hit it off. I think we would have had a blast. Rick. Rique. Um, and then last one is from Megan Barry. Do you ever find yourself slightly attracted to Donna?

Oh. You are Donna. And that's the face swap with my face on you. Do you find yourself attracted to her ever? Never because Donna is. That's my face, baby. I know, but it's our face combined. And it should be very attractive to you.

And Donna is very creepy. Yeah, she is so creepy. I don't love Donna. No, she's what nightmares are made of. Like, her face haunts me. Like, Donna just isn't fun. She sucks. She can't talk.

And so we've done this whole thing of her not being able to talk. Donna sucks. So it's like, we got to. Donna sucks. We got to kill her off. Okay. That was aggressive. I mean.

I am like slightly offended. Don't ever. Yes. What do you mean? Snapchat just gave us the filter back. Just my account. Right. To have Facebook.

swap but let's be honest we got that so we can get we can get Rick back Rick daddy yeah Rick's the man that's you know what that we all we need to do is end that on Rick but do you have anything else you want to talk about today with me what do you want to talk about I mean this is your first podcast I know I feel like it was such a success you know oh thanks no because of me oh yeah right thanks I'm just kidding yeah I love it I'm drinking my wine you're drinking your coffee this is so us this is so i mean it's like we finish each other's sandwiches oh my god you said sandwiches i said sandwiches uh okay i think that's it for today but that's it already i'm having too much fun i know me too we can do this again i'll have you in as a co-host because i feel like

we kind of forget about what else is happening in the world and we just moved into a new home and we're decorating and we're paying for our mortgage and i feel like we get into the so much going on and we get into the podcast studio, and we're just re-falling in love over here, you know? Yeah, we're going to need a few minutes in here, guys. Yeah, leave us alone. Well, thank you, Sean B, for being my first guest. I wouldn't have chosen anyone else to be my first guest.
