Speaker 1 (00:01):
This is Hias podcast with Stepnie pat and well that
ust okay. I got another episode of the Pratt Cast
here from the I Heart Studios in Los Angeles. Wells
Adams not a side, uh Steph Pratt. So that's how
(00:22):
this is going. So let me just break this sole
thing down for you real quick. Okay. So last episode
we talked about steps Steph's dating problems. We brought in
a freaking therapist. I suggested that we bring one of
my good friends into Los Angeles, Flute, my good buddy Derek,
who was on The bachelorrete with me to Los Angeles
(00:44):
to go on a date with Steph. Because Derek is
a great looking, smart dude, independently wealthy, works in finance,
has a gigantic wiener that part I made up, but whatever,
and Steph was still a little like apprehensive about it.
So they go on a date. So the idea for
this show today is that we're gonna talk to bouth Steph,
(01:05):
and we're gonna talk to Derek, and we're gonna hear
both sides of the date. Now. Steph yesterday texted me
and producer Amy if we could move the record time
from twelve thirty to noon, So of course I acquiesced, said, yeah,
we can do that. That's fine. So I get here
at noon. A couple of minutes go by, no big deal,
(01:28):
fifteen minutes roll by, no big deal. Thirty minutes go by, Okay,
what's going on. We're now at twelve forty eight, so
it actually we are now fifteen minutes late from the
original start time. And guess what, Steph Pratt nowhere to
be found. So then we started doing some investigation work, right,
we started to magnum p I this thing. Found out
(01:51):
that Steph's phone has been left at the bel Air
country Club. She has left it there, But we know
she's at the bell Air country Club because if you
look get her Instagram stories, she's definitely there celebrating. I
guess it's uh, someone from the Hilton family's birthday. So
they're having a big Hilton family birthday at the bell
Air country Club and why wouldn't you. It's a beautiful
(02:12):
place and wonderful menu. So we call her phone and
she's left it there. The reason why we know that
is because the concierge answered it and was like, yeah,
I don't know whose phone this is, but they've left
it here and so if you could tell them, uh,
you know, have them come pick it up, to which
point we said, well, I don't know how are we
get ahold of her because she had to have her
(02:34):
phone with her. So here we are almost an hour
pass and we were supposed to start recording. We have
no the show should be called the Wells Cast because
I don't have Stephanie here, which is amazing. Also, do
I get a hundred percent of the ad revenue for
the day's show? How does this work? Okay? So we
(02:55):
have Derek on the line right now. Derek is one
of my best friends. Derek, we've done what we did
two shows together. We did two shows together. I'm lapping
my ass off because this is just like what happened yesterday.
I know. So that's why I was like when when
we called him before the thing, I said, shut up,
don't say anything, just let me do this lead in
(03:17):
because you're never going to believe or you actually completely
believe what I'm about to say. Okay, So Derek, Derek
and I were on the batch sirette. He went home
crying in a limo like a little batch uh talking
in third person, which is my favorite scenes in all
(03:38):
and look where we are now. You're going on blind
dates with Steph Pratt and I'm living the high life
in the studio cities. Two roads diverged in the wood
and you took the wrong one, buddy, that's true. Uh.
And then you went on you went on Bachelor and Paradise. Um,
you actually got engaged in the after show to Taylor
(03:59):
ended up not working out. Um, tell us what you're
doing right now, just with your life. You're you're out
in New York, right, Yeah, you got I'd say that's
an accurate summary. Uh um. Yeah. So so I work
out in New York. Um, I run the product management
and back end operations team for a bank out here. Um,
(04:23):
we do student loan refinancing. Is our kind of bread
and butter. Um. And I feel like my voice has
changed because now I'm trying to sell my job. Do it. No,
but we gotta burn time. We don't have a freaking
host of the show right now. I've been out here
about a year and a half now and uh yeah,
(04:44):
so back to normal life much like you sort of.
I guess we're doing radio. Well, yeah, when you do
a podcast as well, you do the betchs podcast, which
is really popular. Um yeah, that was crazy. So so
I got to know the vetches girls. Um just like
you know, ran into him, became friends, and we just
(05:04):
made some little funny sketches making fun of Chris Harrison,
like some videos, and they go, do you just want
to host our podcast for us? Now? So? Um, so yeah,
that's my Monday night. I we we record until like
midnight and then uh, and then I go back to
my nine five. Is anything else you need to plug here?
Because we got the uh, we got the podcast, we
(05:27):
got your student loan company? Anything else? You have a
sugar bear hair at we need to run? What's going on?
You can follow me at Derrick on Twitter and Instagram. Okay,
so let's just get into and I just want to
kind of hear your retelling of the day we fly
you out from New York. Um, you and I actually
(05:49):
go out like the night before the day, uh, and
the day before the day we go we went and
have like tacos and and and beers in Venice. And
then on Sunday, which was yesterday, you were supposed to
meet up with Steph for brunch. What happened? Okay? So yeah,
we moved it much like you guys did today. Um
(06:11):
back two hours. Uh, And about fifteen minutes in, I'm like,
I think I texted both you and Amy saying hey,
so is this like a normal thing to be a
little bit late, And everyone's like, hey, I don't don't worry.
This is very normal. And about thirty more minutes go by,
(06:32):
and I'm like, all right, well, I'm gonna start drinking now,
because you know, I'm sitting by myself. And actually when
I when I got seated, the guy like put us
next to this group that had like six kids in it,
and I was like, hey, if we still over there
with the like quiet older people, this is kind of
like a blind date thing. So every time he was
(06:52):
like going to see people, then he kind of like
look over at me, and I was like, oh, no,
he thinks I'm being left here, which I've was worried
I might also be last. And uh. And then when
the server comes up for like the third time to
be like, hey, so do you want like a drink
or something now? Because uh and uh and yeah, it
(07:14):
took I think an hour and fifteen minutes, hour and
twenty minutes until Stef finally showed up. Uh. Her reasoning
was she was in Hawaii and she claims that they
don't have daylight savings time there. I didn't validate that.
I'm not like a psycho researcher that needs to look
at up. But um, supposedly Hawai doesn't have daylight saving time.
(07:37):
And when she came back. Uh so she never changed
her clocks and she thought it was a different time. Okay, okay,
hold on, hold on, great theory. So, uh so I'm
in a text chain with Amy and Steph obviously for
the show, and so you're texting Need being like, dude,
I don't know. I think I've been stood up, and
(07:59):
of course we're freaking out texting her being like what
is going on? So this is the text chain? Hey,
you close? And then Steph replying with why does my
phone say one twenty two? And then Amy saying what
do you mean it's one two? Derek got there at one,
are you on your way? And then she wrote back
(08:22):
when did the time change? No, just got out of
the shower. All my clocks say twelve twenty three, to
which we responded with the time changed last week, step which,
by the way, I can understand, like in your house
clocks not changing, but your phone changes, all right. Well,
so that was all right, that was my question, and
(08:45):
UNI she didn't she didn't offer this. I was. I
was mowing through that in my head. She definitely referred
to herself as Amish, like uh eight different times, so
high and which is a great every man on um.
But we actually compared. Both she and I have over
a d texts that we haven't replied to. So so
(09:09):
I was like, all right, maybe she's like me and
just really doesn't look at her phone all that much.
But I don't know, Well, I guess guess what she's
not doing right now. She's not looking at her phone
right now because it's been left at the bel Air
Country Club and people, yes, it's an almosh hot bed
here in the Greater Los Angeles area, and they dropped
(09:33):
their cell phones off so that they can go. Why
are there's so many horse and buggies outside the Bellar
Country Club? Okay, so she finally so, okay, it's this.
It's even better than this. You're texting us being like, hey,
they keep telling me the kitchens about to close. I
don't know what to do right before, and I was
(09:54):
I sent you guys a couple of videos of me,
like with my date, which was my drink of vodka,
a tall glass of vodka. Yes, beautiful, beautiful date. Um So,
right before she showed up, like the very probably the
third thing I said to her was, um, you need
(10:14):
to pick up some food because they closed the kitchen
and they had just come by and I didn't realize
that this is but I did notice that it was
like becoming more and more empty in there. Um So,
I don't know. Maybe it was a ploy for her
to not want people to see us there. Oh, I
forgot to mention all during this time where I'm sitting
(10:35):
by myself, a nice, nice lady, Holly comes up and
gives me her phone number on the on the back
of her receipt. I know, I saw you, took a
picture of it. And it's the sweetest thing ever. It says,
I'm hoping the luck of the Irish is on my
side today because this was taking place on St Patrick's Day,
and it says call me Holly. And then with left
(10:58):
or number, which is the greatest move in the world
of dating. When you're watching a guy gets stood up
on a blind day, she smelled blood. Yeah, so the
whole time this is happening in Derek's texting, texting me
being like what do I do? I'm like, call Holly.
Let's just let's pivot now. Maybe this will be the hollycast.
(11:22):
Who knows what's gonna happen next. Okay, So, um so
steph gets there. What was your first impression of Stephanie Pratt? Um?
I expected her to be like, so, let's let's preface this.
I don't I didn't ever watch The Hills. Um, I
don't know anything about her. I know I've heard her
(11:45):
brother's name, and I know that he's like an actle,
but in a funny way, which great, Like I'm super
dry humor that that's you know, that's good with me. Um.
I was really expecting like true southern California girl, who like,
I mean, we I've been around enough reality stars now,
like very nose in the air, uninterested in in me
(12:08):
being there, you know. Um. So the thing she does
is sit as far away from me as possible at
this cable, at which one I was like, why are
you sitting in Hawaii? Like you came back from Hawaii? Um?
Is it an hour earlier? There? Right? Uh? She was
(12:31):
definitely like super tired. I didn't know that she had
taken a red eye or whatever, so it took a
it took a bit to warm her up. But I
was like really pleasantly surprised. I will say, wow, Okay,
what were you surprised about. Um, she's a lot smarter
than I thought she's and she's quippy and like quick. Um,
(12:54):
maybe it's just because we both have learned to just
be so open with our lives. But there was like
a uh not an empty dull moment. So, um, yeah,
I'm amazing. I'm just amazed that she's been able to
resurrect this thing after standing you up for like over
an hour. She's turned you pretty quickly what he had.
(13:16):
She was very lucky that that you were was my
connection there. And by the way, I've never had a
blind date before. Yeah, well, uh, you don't. You don't
count Joe Joe blinding. We didn't know her before. We've
been on that show. That doesn't count. Okay, we've watched
her on TV. We knew her. Um. Okay, So so
(13:41):
you're talking a lot of positives about her, do you
have any negatives about staff? Uh? This was a really
funny thing that happened, and so she left her wallet
in her carry on bag and we kind of we
kind of bounced around to a few different places. Okay,
words are well, I mean yeah, and that's fine. I'm
(14:06):
used to that honestly. Um, you know, the last girl
I did it didn't didn't exactly have a job. Um.
But the best part was, so we're going into these
bars and she doesn't have an idea and it's St.
Patrick's Day, so they're really like policing everybody. So she
(14:28):
pulled up her Wikipedia that work the first place. Yeah,
the first guy was like, not about it. The first
guy was not about it, and uh, she got super
lucky because this this other guy who works there. Uh
he was like, are you step Pratt? And she's just
like yeah, because if your dad is my dentist, it
(14:54):
wasn't about that. It wasn't about her being famous in anyway.
So it was like the perfect way for that to happen. God. Okay,
So she uses her Wikipedia to get into bars. This
is amazing. She's forgotten her wallet, so you're paying for everything.
Were there any red flags during these Uh, they're in
(15:15):
the state. We I think we've talked about Honestly, like
in no other situations. I was so close to leaving
if that, if that kitchen closed, I was going to
add out. So again, like, in no way would I
have gone on in a normal case a date with
somebody this late, um or like giving it a chance
(15:38):
if I hadn't flown across the gun. Try. Yeah, at
the urging of of like one of my best friends,
you know, to go and meet this girl. Um, but
I mean she really did turn me we um. So
so we we did brunch and all the normal first
deity like how many people in your family? What kind
(15:59):
of music do you like? Um? And then you know,
bad bad stories, bad bad jokes from me. Uh. But
then we went to then we went did I like
like St. Patrick's Day two Irish bars? Uh. The first
place had these little kids who were tap dancing, and
we basically roasted the little kids. One of them looked
(16:23):
like you was he like he stood the way you
do too, you know, like with your legs really close together.
It was it was funny. I'll send you the video,
actually I did. I did post it on my story. Yeah.
I saw I saw a video of like kids like
doing Irish jigs. I guess is that like that we're
(16:43):
talking that was Irish wells, Yeah, we met this couple.
So we met this couple who, um, it was their
anniversary to your anniversary. They met there two years ago
and they just like randomly walked up to us and
started talking to us. Uh, and we hung out with
Simon was his name, I don't remember her name, but
(17:05):
we hung out with them for like two hours. And yeah,
and then she went to the Hilton party that you're
talking about. Well, no, the hill Well, I guess there
was a Hilton party yesterday, but then there's another one today.
The Hiltons just contin The party never ends, you know. Um, okay,
so was there attraction were you? Are you into it?
(17:31):
I am into it? Yeah, Yeah, I would definitely see
her again. I'm I'm amazed. I don't know if I
could come back from I mean, I love Steph and
I think she's larious and I think she's beautiful. But
I don't know if I could come back from consitting
here for an hour and a half. I drink all
the vodka. I was drunk, That's what it was. I
(17:52):
would be drunk. Maybe maybe it was horrible and I
just was happy drunk. It Um did you roasting little
kids dancing to Irish jigs. Yeah, did you guys kiss?
Did you make out? Did you why? She had so?
(18:14):
She she also she got this green lipstick from the
from the people were off your out and it was
like super cheap lipstick. So it was like all over
my face. It was great. Oh my god, you made
out a slimer from Ghostbusters. Oh so did you make
(18:37):
out more than one time? Yeah? I think it was twice? Okay, yeah,
and so you so, here's the thing. You had to
fly back to New York because you've got a normal
nine to five or you sell uh whatever you tell,
you sell things to kids for college or something. Um,
(18:57):
but but there was there was a thought of you
staying around, right like you guys talked about maybe hanging
out a little bit longer, like changing a flight. Right, Yeah,
we did because she went to that she had to
go to that thing, and uh, I was like, I
don't know, we'll see, and then I was like, no,
(19:19):
I'm gonna be responsible. This can happen again. So yeah, yeah, okay,
I did go to I did go to Flogging Molly concert.
So why didn't she take Why didn't she take you
to the Hilton Party. Um, that's a good question. I'm
(19:39):
a great date. Yeah, I mean, who wouldn't want to
show up with a guy who looks like John Krazinski
with green makeup all over his face? At that point,
she was just like, sweetie, clean your face before you cook.
Take I take you to the Hilton's. Um, okay, so
this is maybe the most important question. Will there be
(20:03):
a second date between Derek and stuff? Well? I tried
to text her, but she didn't answer. Yeah, that's because
her actually didn't text her. Yeah. I thinkured we would talk.
We would talk today. Um, apparently she's ghosting me along
with you guys. He's gonna be on the phone. No,
(20:27):
this is not happening. Quick is ghosting. I've ever seen
like this was set up for us to have to
talk again. Yeah, like contractually she has to talk to you,
and somehow has worked her way around it. Oh my god,
(20:49):
I'm so sorry. But also I'm happy for you because
you seem like you had a good time. Yeah, I'm
glad it could have It could have gone very bad.
It started, I think as poorly as any date ever. Um,
and it was a fun day though. Do you think
there's gonna be Do you think there's gonna be any anything,
(21:09):
any story that she tells that you haven't told, like
some little thing, I'm sure, yeah, absolutely all right. I
don't know. I don't know what it would be. I
didn't take like avid notes. Yeah, and you were a
bottle of like stoly deep before she even got there,
(21:30):
So to be fair, your recollection is a little hazy. Um. Okay,
So so you're telling me that I gotta fly you
back out here and uh and set you up on
our date. Yes, you're you're like my new travel agent. Yeah,
well and and and and sort of I don't know.
(21:51):
That's a little assuming, I guess, but I kind of
want to give you the advice of, like, did stand
up for yourself, have a little bit more of a backbone. Man,
this was too easy. Like literally she threw every curb
all at you, and you were like, yeah, she's really nice.
We made out a couple of times. I'd like to
come back, even though she won't restaurant my phone calls
right now. No, I'm usually like really picky with people
(22:14):
I know definitely definite knows like really quickly. She's not
a definite no. So that's what Yeah, like like I
can meet somebody in within like fifteen minutes to be like, no,
this isn't gonna happen. She's totally what I expected she
she is, but she isn't um, which is I think
(22:36):
what's is intriguing about it. It's not exactly like I
never I'm like, I don't love reality people. Um. And
again this whole idea that she's like thinks she's amish
and uh and it's really not like all crazy about
her social media and everything. You know. That was like
(22:57):
that that's separated her a little bit from from the
other deist celebrities that I've met. Yeah, well, good, all right,
I'm I'm I'm excited about this. I I gotta tell you.
Sarah and I were sitting on the couch just like
waiting for updates, just being like, oh my god, this
poor kid flew all the way out here. He's standing
(23:19):
him up, like he's by himself at some like Denny's
just drinking all by himself. And then the next text
I see like four hours later, been like trying to
change my flight, Like, wow, that really went on eight Wow. Well,
I think here's the thing. If she would have been
on time, we would have had that extra hour and
(23:40):
a half and then I wouldn't have been and you
know a thing. All right, are there any other questions
I haven't asked that I need to get into you.
I'm sure she'll. I'm sure she'll have some to say
about me. Would you be completely like blindside if she
was like, yeah, not it into it? Yeah, because she
(24:02):
was the one who suggested I stay longer. Yeah, all right,
good good information. Don't I think I have the receipts
on that too, not not the receipt that the that
the other number was written on. But yeah, by the way,
a big, big sorry to Holly for not getting that
(24:24):
uh that date who was a good noble try. I
do hope she listens to this. Thanks Holly for keeping
me entertained in uh my sorrow. Okay, so drinking depression. Yeah,
we went. We kind of like set up the first
the first date for you. Um, so for the second one?
(24:46):
What what do you think you guys would do? What
would you set up? Mm hmmm, I don't know, man,
I haven't thought about that yet. Something low key probably
um like uh, event like this was drinking and and
uh and eating, which is great, but like going and
doing something, you know, like why like like not not
(25:10):
just getting drunk? Great, great way for uh every first
day to go. I guess let's get drunk together every
tender day that's how it started. Or you just show
up drunk. I suppose, Um, would you rather her come
out to New York or do you want to come
back out here the second day? I think it would
(25:31):
be cool to do New York. Yeah, I agree. What
was that voice I just used? I don't know, dude,
you're going through puberty, you're growing up. It's just I'm
so proud of you. You know, I'm gonna talk like
this all right, dude, Well, thank you uh so much
(25:51):
for being on the Pradcast, And um, I'm really happy
that this went well. Selfishly, the reason why I want
this to be successful is that makes you come out
to l a more and then we get to hang
out more often. Yeah, yeah, I know. And I think
you're a great guy and she needs a normal guy
(26:11):
in her life and you are. This isn't a a
slight on you, but you're a very normal guy, you
know for sure. I know what you mean. So I'm
happy that you guys had had a lot of fun
and I'm just I'm just still flabbergasses that she was
able to bring it back. But I am I am too. Yeah,
(26:32):
that's a that that is a badass woman to uh
to be able to bring that back. She got to work,
all right, buddy, Well go back to work, Go sell
some whatever you sell two people um in the finance industry,
and everyone go followed Derek at what is what is

think is this is not bode well for our future.
He's gonna be late for everything and I can't count
on her to show up places and that would bother me.
Are you talking like as a producer for the show
(30:05):
a day? Obviously both now, but on a date? I
think that would bother me. I think like this is
a sign of lack of responsibility or something disrespect. So yeah,
I have a thing that being late to things really
bugs me because the reason why it's a very selfish
act because it implies that you think your time is
more valuable than everyone else's and that annoys me. Um,
(30:28):
but I get it, Like she's a busy girl and
there's birthday parties and she's on your cell phone, so
like it's fine, and like it's it's funny for this
podcast that like she didn't know the time changed, Like
that's the most step for an entire week do you
think that like people were just like, so, like what
I do with my girl friend if I know we've
got to be somewhere soon, because at a certain time,
I will usually buffer it with like a half an hour,
(30:50):
you know, which is a little white lie, but it
gets us there around the right time. Do you think
that she's been living her life for the past week
on the wrong time and she's been like showing up
at the right time, but people have been lying to
her about the time, so she didn't know that she
would be you know what I'm saying. So everyone's like
(31:12):
the party starts at twelve, everyone's like it starts to eleven.
She's on this the wrong time, the wrong time, and
so she's getting there on the right at the right time.
You know what I'm saying. You may be right. They
tell her an hour early, she's up in our late.
She's right on time. Maybe that's her life. Yeah, oh man,
all right. We have a woman on the Secret Show
(31:33):
who says that the people who have this trait and
it's trade people have that are consistently late. It is
a neurological disorder and there's nothing they can do about. Really.
I don't agree with that I think it is disrespectful
and you could do something about it. She says, Nope,
it's out of my hands. It's how I was made
and that I need to respect that. So but this
woman is one of those people that's always late. Yeah okay,
(31:55):
but she says she talked to a therapist about it,
and that's what he told her, neurological problem. Yeah okay. Well,
you know, we're bringing the therapists back in very soon
because we're gonna have to get what the plan for
this show is that we're gonna have. Now, we're gonna
hear steph side of the story, but we can't because
she's at the Bellar Country Club right now with the
other Armish people. So so I guess next episode will
(32:17):
hear her side, right, is that the idea? And then uh,
and then we'll bring Derek back on and we'll see
how their two stories aligne and then we'll see what
happens with this book and just I don't know this
young love, which is crazy, right because like when I
pitched this, I was just like, let's just get my
buddy out here. So I have like we go down
drinking and stuff kind and I almost Derek's nice guy,
(32:40):
you know. But here's the thing. The last episode, when
I showed her pictures, she was like, no, not into it,
not attractive enough. Derek looks exactly John Krasinski. That's the
first thing I thought, it looks exactly like so much.
So like I've been out with him where people will
come up and ask her pictures and be like and
(33:01):
and he's like, oh, yeah, you know, thanks for watching
the Batchel And they're like no, no no, the office and
he's like, no, no no, no, I'm not that God. This
goes to prove that if a guy finds a woman
hot enough, he will overlook so much. Yeah he's hot, yes,
(33:25):
and therefore you can do whatever she wants. Yeah, exactly,
it must be nice to be so hot. I went
out with a girl wants in story and by the way,
I am a guy. I don't drink alcohol. I don't
do any of that stuff. I went out with a
girl once who was a literal crackhead. Loved crack because
she looked like Lisia Silverstone back in this and this
(33:45):
was in the age of Clueless and Alicia Silverstone's prime.
She looked just like her. I overlooked the fact that
she's doing cocaine in my apartment, no crack cocaine. Correct, well,
she was actually snorting in my apartment, but she preferred crack.
She had a whole litany of reasons why she preferred
smoking crack over snorting cocaine, in terms of the taste
in the back of your nose and all that stuff
(34:06):
back your throat. She had a whole diet tribe on that,
and I was like, fine, whatever, care less. It's an
extreme example, but it's true. Very extreme example. Is she
always she ever late? I don't remember. And we haven't
(34:26):
even gotten to the fact that she used a Wikipedia
page to prove she was twenty one. I don't even
have a Wikipedia I couldn't even use it, but I
needed genius. And some think you could just create your
own Wikipedia page, but you can't. Because I did that once,
they'll take it out. Yeah, I did, took me off.
I mean, people think that Wikipedia is just like a
free for all and anybody can do anything on there
and you can't trust any of it. But they say
(34:48):
that actual physical encyclopedias have errors in them like crazy.
There's like, you know, a couple of hundred errors in
a typical volume of Encyclopedia's. Wikipedia has fewer errors because
they can actually get fixed. We're in a book there permanent.
In Wikipedia, they're temporary. So yeah, but is that an
l a thing? Just pull up your Wikipedia page. But
(35:08):
you can go edit Wikipedia pages like right now. So
if you were nineteen and you have Wikipedia page, you
could go in edit it and then go to the
bar probably take him an hour to check it to
fix it. So yeah, you're right. I do actually love
that and also like very resourceful in her part. I
love about this whole thing is that the one problem
that Steph had with guys before is that they basically
(35:30):
mooch off for She pays for everything. They end up
moving into her place or whatever. And I wonder if
it was a ploy on on her part to be like,
I'm not bringing money so they have to pay for me. Um,
But I do I think it was a good thing
for her to see a guy be like, don't worry
about it, I got it, and obviously like I'm sure
(35:53):
knowing Derek, I'm sure he just thought it was funny, like,
let's see if we can get in with the Wikipedia page,
like you know, like I don't know, let's try um,
so I can see him like not being turned off
by that, you know, but it might be different. I
could see both sides of that, I think. I think
if it's the other way around, it's it's such like
(36:13):
a peacocking thing for a guy to be like, well
let me show you how famous I and here's my
Wikipedia thing. But for her, I think it's like it's cute.
All right, Well, next episode we're gonna have hopefully staff
comes back. So we're giving up on her for today
because really she could walk in here at any time,
but she probably wouldn't because she doesn't ever phone on
(36:33):
her But also like does she know how to get
here without using ways? Or she can't call an uber?
She is lost on the mean streets of l A. Guys,
that's an interesting thing because once upon a time we
had a bunch of phone numbers in our heads. We
were actually able to memorize phone numbers. Now we don't
know anybody's phone number ever, because it's all on our phones. Similarly,
I think we don't ever know how to get anywhere
(36:54):
because we rely on our phone so much. We're gonna
find her in like downtown l A, live ing under
a bridge, so disheveled and she like, guys, I just
don't know where I am. All right, Well, hopefully next
week we find her. Hopefully she's okay. By the way,
if you want to join me on the Napa Valley
Wine Train and tour UH and tour the Mandavi Winery,
(37:16):
you totally can. April six in NAPAs and we're gonna
be hanging out. All the money raised will go to

enjoy a four course meal on the Napa Wine Train

(37:38):
We're just gonna get drunk, to get a lot of
great people. A. Tanya Rads gonna be Therecrest Vanessa Grimaldi
is gonna be there. From The Bachelor, You Nungler, it's
going You're at have Ben actually, I Connetti, Janna Kramer,
Michael Cosson. If you're a fan of any I Heart
Radio podcast, then this is the place for you. Steph.
I don't know if stuff's gonna make it. I'm not
sure we can count on that. What if we get
(38:00):
Derek to come to this and have her go as well.
I think that's a great idea and could and then
Derek can kind of be our handler, you know, just
make sure she's in the right place, all right, guys, Um, well,
thanks for listening. I'm sorry that the person whose podcast
is says wasn't here. But next week maybe she'll be
back and we'll find out the other side of the
story between the date between Steph and uh Derek Paith
(38:24):
See you, guys. Follow Pratt cast on I Heart Radio
or wherever you listen to podcasts.
This is Hias podcast with Stepnie pat and well that
ust okay. I got another episode of the Pratt Cast
here from the I Heart Studios in Los Angeles. Wells
Adams not a side, uh Steph Pratt. So that's how
(00:22):
this is going. So let me just break this sole
thing down for you real quick. Okay. So last episode
we talked about steps Steph's dating problems. We brought in
a freaking therapist. I suggested that we bring one of
my good friends into Los Angeles, Flute, my good buddy Derek,
who was on The bachelorrete with me to Los Angeles
(00:44):
to go on a date with Steph. Because Derek is
a great looking, smart dude, independently wealthy, works in finance,
has a gigantic wiener that part I made up, but whatever,
and Steph was still a little like apprehensive about it.
So they go on a date. So the idea for
this show today is that we're gonna talk to bouth Steph,
(01:05):
and we're gonna talk to Derek, and we're gonna hear
both sides of the date. Now. Steph yesterday texted me
and producer Amy if we could move the record time
from twelve thirty to noon, So of course I acquiesced, said, yeah,
we can do that. That's fine. So I get here
at noon. A couple of minutes go by, no big deal,
(01:28):
fifteen minutes roll by, no big deal. Thirty minutes go by, Okay,
what's going on. We're now at twelve forty eight, so
it actually we are now fifteen minutes late from the
original start time. And guess what, Steph Pratt nowhere to
be found. So then we started doing some investigation work, right,
we started to magnum p I this thing. Found out
(01:51):
that Steph's phone has been left at the bel Air
country Club. She has left it there, But we know
she's at the bell Air country Club because if you
look get her Instagram stories, she's definitely there celebrating. I
guess it's uh, someone from the Hilton family's birthday. So
they're having a big Hilton family birthday at the bell
Air country Club and why wouldn't you. It's a beautiful
(02:12):
place and wonderful menu. So we call her phone and
she's left it there. The reason why we know that
is because the concierge answered it and was like, yeah,
I don't know whose phone this is, but they've left
it here and so if you could tell them, uh,
you know, have them come pick it up, to which
point we said, well, I don't know how are we
get ahold of her because she had to have her
(02:34):
phone with her. So here we are almost an hour
pass and we were supposed to start recording. We have
no the show should be called the Wells Cast because
I don't have Stephanie here, which is amazing. Also, do
I get a hundred percent of the ad revenue for
the day's show? How does this work? Okay? So we
(02:55):
have Derek on the line right now. Derek is one
of my best friends. Derek, we've done what we did
two shows together. We did two shows together. I'm lapping
my ass off because this is just like what happened yesterday.
I know. So that's why I was like when when
we called him before the thing, I said, shut up,
don't say anything, just let me do this lead in
(03:17):
because you're never going to believe or you actually completely
believe what I'm about to say. Okay, So Derek, Derek
and I were on the batch sirette. He went home
crying in a limo like a little batch uh talking
in third person, which is my favorite scenes in all
(03:38):
and look where we are now. You're going on blind
dates with Steph Pratt and I'm living the high life
in the studio cities. Two roads diverged in the wood
and you took the wrong one, buddy, that's true. Uh.
And then you went on you went on Bachelor and Paradise. Um,
you actually got engaged in the after show to Taylor
(03:59):
ended up not working out. Um, tell us what you're
doing right now, just with your life. You're you're out
in New York, right, Yeah, you got I'd say that's
an accurate summary. Uh um. Yeah. So so I work
out in New York. Um, I run the product management
and back end operations team for a bank out here. Um,
(04:23):
we do student loan refinancing. Is our kind of bread
and butter. Um. And I feel like my voice has
changed because now I'm trying to sell my job. Do it. No,
but we gotta burn time. We don't have a freaking
host of the show right now. I've been out here
about a year and a half now and uh yeah,
(04:44):
so back to normal life much like you sort of.
I guess we're doing radio. Well, yeah, when you do
a podcast as well, you do the betchs podcast, which
is really popular. Um yeah, that was crazy. So so
I got to know the vetches girls. Um just like
you know, ran into him, became friends, and we just
(05:04):
made some little funny sketches making fun of Chris Harrison,
like some videos, and they go, do you just want
to host our podcast for us? Now? So? Um, so yeah,
that's my Monday night. I we we record until like
midnight and then uh, and then I go back to
my nine five. Is anything else you need to plug here?
Because we got the uh, we got the podcast, we
(05:27):
got your student loan company? Anything else? You have a
sugar bear hair at we need to run? What's going on?
You can follow me at Derrick on Twitter and Instagram. Okay,
so let's just get into and I just want to
kind of hear your retelling of the day we fly
you out from New York. Um, you and I actually
(05:49):
go out like the night before the day, uh, and
the day before the day we go we went and
have like tacos and and and beers in Venice. And
then on Sunday, which was yesterday, you were supposed to
meet up with Steph for brunch. What happened? Okay? So yeah,
we moved it much like you guys did today. Um
(06:11):
back two hours. Uh, And about fifteen minutes in, I'm like,
I think I texted both you and Amy saying hey,
so is this like a normal thing to be a
little bit late, And everyone's like, hey, I don't don't worry.
This is very normal. And about thirty more minutes go by,
(06:32):
and I'm like, all right, well, I'm gonna start drinking now,
because you know, I'm sitting by myself. And actually when
I when I got seated, the guy like put us
next to this group that had like six kids in it,
and I was like, hey, if we still over there
with the like quiet older people, this is kind of
like a blind date thing. So every time he was
(06:52):
like going to see people, then he kind of like
look over at me, and I was like, oh, no,
he thinks I'm being left here, which I've was worried
I might also be last. And uh. And then when
the server comes up for like the third time to
be like, hey, so do you want like a drink
or something now? Because uh and uh and yeah, it
(07:14):
took I think an hour and fifteen minutes, hour and
twenty minutes until Stef finally showed up. Uh. Her reasoning
was she was in Hawaii and she claims that they
don't have daylight savings time there. I didn't validate that.
I'm not like a psycho researcher that needs to look
at up. But um, supposedly Hawai doesn't have daylight saving time.
(07:37):
And when she came back. Uh so she never changed
her clocks and she thought it was a different time. Okay, okay,
hold on, hold on, great theory. So, uh so I'm
in a text chain with Amy and Steph obviously for
the show, and so you're texting Need being like, dude,
I don't know. I think I've been stood up, and
(07:59):
of course we're freaking out texting her being like what
is going on? So this is the text chain? Hey,
you close? And then Steph replying with why does my
phone say one twenty two? And then Amy saying what
do you mean it's one two? Derek got there at one,
are you on your way? And then she wrote back
(08:22):
when did the time change? No, just got out of
the shower. All my clocks say twelve twenty three, to
which we responded with the time changed last week, step which,
by the way, I can understand, like in your house
clocks not changing, but your phone changes, all right. Well,
so that was all right, that was my question, and
(08:45):
UNI she didn't she didn't offer this. I was. I
was mowing through that in my head. She definitely referred
to herself as Amish, like uh eight different times, so
high and which is a great every man on um.
But we actually compared. Both she and I have over
a d texts that we haven't replied to. So so
(09:09):
I was like, all right, maybe she's like me and
just really doesn't look at her phone all that much.
But I don't know, Well, I guess guess what she's
not doing right now. She's not looking at her phone
right now because it's been left at the bel Air
Country Club and people, yes, it's an almosh hot bed
here in the Greater Los Angeles area, and they dropped
(09:33):
their cell phones off so that they can go. Why
are there's so many horse and buggies outside the Bellar
Country Club? Okay, so she finally so, okay, it's this.
It's even better than this. You're texting us being like, hey,
they keep telling me the kitchens about to close. I
don't know what to do right before, and I was
(09:54):
I sent you guys a couple of videos of me,
like with my date, which was my drink of vodka,
a tall glass of vodka. Yes, beautiful, beautiful date. Um So,
right before she showed up, like the very probably the
third thing I said to her was, um, you need
(10:14):
to pick up some food because they closed the kitchen
and they had just come by and I didn't realize
that this is but I did notice that it was
like becoming more and more empty in there. Um So,
I don't know. Maybe it was a ploy for her
to not want people to see us there. Oh, I
forgot to mention all during this time where I'm sitting
(10:35):
by myself, a nice, nice lady, Holly comes up and
gives me her phone number on the on the back
of her receipt. I know, I saw you, took a
picture of it. And it's the sweetest thing ever. It says,
I'm hoping the luck of the Irish is on my
side today because this was taking place on St Patrick's Day,
and it says call me Holly. And then with left
(10:58):
or number, which is the greatest move in the world
of dating. When you're watching a guy gets stood up
on a blind day, she smelled blood. Yeah, so the
whole time this is happening in Derek's texting, texting me
being like what do I do? I'm like, call Holly.
Let's just let's pivot now. Maybe this will be the hollycast.
(11:22):
Who knows what's gonna happen next. Okay, So, um so
steph gets there. What was your first impression of Stephanie Pratt? Um?
I expected her to be like, so, let's let's preface this.
I don't I didn't ever watch The Hills. Um, I
don't know anything about her. I know I've heard her
(11:45):
brother's name, and I know that he's like an actle,
but in a funny way, which great, Like I'm super
dry humor that that's you know, that's good with me. Um.
I was really expecting like true southern California girl, who like,
I mean, we I've been around enough reality stars now,
like very nose in the air, uninterested in in me
(12:08):
being there, you know. Um. So the thing she does
is sit as far away from me as possible at
this cable, at which one I was like, why are
you sitting in Hawaii? Like you came back from Hawaii? Um?
Is it an hour earlier? There? Right? Uh? She was
(12:31):
definitely like super tired. I didn't know that she had
taken a red eye or whatever, so it took a
it took a bit to warm her up. But I
was like really pleasantly surprised. I will say, wow, Okay,
what were you surprised about. Um, she's a lot smarter
than I thought she's and she's quippy and like quick. Um,
(12:54):
maybe it's just because we both have learned to just
be so open with our lives. But there was like
a uh not an empty dull moment. So, um, yeah,
I'm amazing. I'm just amazed that she's been able to
resurrect this thing after standing you up for like over
an hour. She's turned you pretty quickly what he had.
(13:16):
She was very lucky that that you were was my
connection there. And by the way, I've never had a
blind date before. Yeah, well, uh, you don't. You don't
count Joe Joe blinding. We didn't know her before. We've
been on that show. That doesn't count. Okay, we've watched
her on TV. We knew her. Um. Okay, So so
(13:41):
you're talking a lot of positives about her, do you
have any negatives about staff? Uh? This was a really
funny thing that happened, and so she left her wallet
in her carry on bag and we kind of we
kind of bounced around to a few different places. Okay,
words are well, I mean yeah, and that's fine. I'm
(14:06):
used to that honestly. Um, you know, the last girl
I did it didn't didn't exactly have a job. Um.
But the best part was, so we're going into these
bars and she doesn't have an idea and it's St.
Patrick's Day, so they're really like policing everybody. So she
(14:28):
pulled up her Wikipedia that work the first place. Yeah,
the first guy was like, not about it. The first
guy was not about it, and uh, she got super
lucky because this this other guy who works there. Uh
he was like, are you step Pratt? And she's just
like yeah, because if your dad is my dentist, it
(14:54):
wasn't about that. It wasn't about her being famous in anyway.
So it was like the perfect way for that to happen. God. Okay,
So she uses her Wikipedia to get into bars. This
is amazing. She's forgotten her wallet, so you're paying for everything.
Were there any red flags during these Uh, they're in
(15:15):
the state. We I think we've talked about Honestly, like
in no other situations. I was so close to leaving
if that, if that kitchen closed, I was going to
add out. So again, like, in no way would I
have gone on in a normal case a date with
somebody this late, um or like giving it a chance
(15:38):
if I hadn't flown across the gun. Try. Yeah, at
the urging of of like one of my best friends,
you know, to go and meet this girl. Um, but
I mean she really did turn me we um. So
so we we did brunch and all the normal first
deity like how many people in your family? What kind
(15:59):
of music do you like? Um? And then you know,
bad bad stories, bad bad jokes from me. Uh. But
then we went to then we went did I like
like St. Patrick's Day two Irish bars? Uh. The first
place had these little kids who were tap dancing, and
we basically roasted the little kids. One of them looked
(16:23):
like you was he like he stood the way you
do too, you know, like with your legs really close together.
It was it was funny. I'll send you the video,
actually I did. I did post it on my story. Yeah.
I saw I saw a video of like kids like
doing Irish jigs. I guess is that like that we're
(16:43):
talking that was Irish wells, Yeah, we met this couple.
So we met this couple who, um, it was their
anniversary to your anniversary. They met there two years ago
and they just like randomly walked up to us and
started talking to us. Uh, and we hung out with
Simon was his name, I don't remember her name, but
(17:05):
we hung out with them for like two hours. And yeah,
and then she went to the Hilton party that you're
talking about. Well, no, the hill Well, I guess there
was a Hilton party yesterday, but then there's another one today.
The Hiltons just contin The party never ends, you know. Um, okay,
so was there attraction were you? Are you into it?
(17:31):
I am into it? Yeah, Yeah, I would definitely see
her again. I'm I'm amazed. I don't know if I
could come back from I mean, I love Steph and
I think she's larious and I think she's beautiful. But
I don't know if I could come back from consitting
here for an hour and a half. I drink all
the vodka. I was drunk, That's what it was. I
(17:52):
would be drunk. Maybe maybe it was horrible and I
just was happy drunk. It Um did you roasting little
kids dancing to Irish jigs. Yeah, did you guys kiss?
Did you make out? Did you why? She had so?
(18:14):
She she also she got this green lipstick from the
from the people were off your out and it was
like super cheap lipstick. So it was like all over
my face. It was great. Oh my god, you made
out a slimer from Ghostbusters. Oh so did you make
(18:37):
out more than one time? Yeah? I think it was twice? Okay, yeah,
and so you so, here's the thing. You had to
fly back to New York because you've got a normal
nine to five or you sell uh whatever you tell,
you sell things to kids for college or something. Um,
(18:57):
but but there was there was a thought of you
staying around, right like you guys talked about maybe hanging
out a little bit longer, like changing a flight. Right, Yeah,
we did because she went to that she had to
go to that thing, and uh, I was like, I
don't know, we'll see, and then I was like, no,
(19:19):
I'm gonna be responsible. This can happen again. So yeah, yeah, okay,
I did go to I did go to Flogging Molly concert.
So why didn't she take Why didn't she take you
to the Hilton Party. Um, that's a good question. I'm
(19:39):
a great date. Yeah, I mean, who wouldn't want to
show up with a guy who looks like John Krazinski
with green makeup all over his face? At that point,
she was just like, sweetie, clean your face before you cook.
Take I take you to the Hilton's. Um, okay, so
this is maybe the most important question. Will there be
(20:03):
a second date between Derek and stuff? Well? I tried
to text her, but she didn't answer. Yeah, that's because
her actually didn't text her. Yeah. I thinkured we would talk.
We would talk today. Um, apparently she's ghosting me along
with you guys. He's gonna be on the phone. No,
(20:27):
this is not happening. Quick is ghosting. I've ever seen
like this was set up for us to have to
talk again. Yeah, like contractually she has to talk to you,
and somehow has worked her way around it. Oh my god,
(20:49):
I'm so sorry. But also I'm happy for you because
you seem like you had a good time. Yeah, I'm
glad it could have It could have gone very bad.
It started, I think as poorly as any date ever. Um,
and it was a fun day though. Do you think
there's gonna be Do you think there's gonna be any anything,
(21:09):
any story that she tells that you haven't told, like
some little thing, I'm sure, yeah, absolutely all right. I
don't know. I don't know what it would be. I
didn't take like avid notes. Yeah, and you were a
bottle of like stoly deep before she even got there,
(21:30):
So to be fair, your recollection is a little hazy. Um. Okay,
So so you're telling me that I gotta fly you
back out here and uh and set you up on
our date. Yes, you're you're like my new travel agent. Yeah,
well and and and and sort of I don't know.
(21:51):
That's a little assuming, I guess, but I kind of
want to give you the advice of, like, did stand
up for yourself, have a little bit more of a backbone. Man,
this was too easy. Like literally she threw every curb
all at you, and you were like, yeah, she's really nice.
We made out a couple of times. I'd like to
come back, even though she won't restaurant my phone calls
right now. No, I'm usually like really picky with people
(22:14):
I know definitely definite knows like really quickly. She's not
a definite no. So that's what Yeah, like like I
can meet somebody in within like fifteen minutes to be like, no,
this isn't gonna happen. She's totally what I expected she
she is, but she isn't um, which is I think
(22:36):
what's is intriguing about it. It's not exactly like I
never I'm like, I don't love reality people. Um. And
again this whole idea that she's like thinks she's amish
and uh and it's really not like all crazy about
her social media and everything. You know. That was like
(22:57):
that that's separated her a little bit from from the
other deist celebrities that I've met. Yeah, well, good, all right,
I'm I'm I'm excited about this. I I gotta tell you.
Sarah and I were sitting on the couch just like
waiting for updates, just being like, oh my god, this
poor kid flew all the way out here. He's standing
(23:19):
him up, like he's by himself at some like Denny's
just drinking all by himself. And then the next text
I see like four hours later, been like trying to
change my flight, Like, wow, that really went on eight Wow. Well,
I think here's the thing. If she would have been
on time, we would have had that extra hour and
(23:40):
a half and then I wouldn't have been and you
know a thing. All right, are there any other questions
I haven't asked that I need to get into you.
I'm sure she'll. I'm sure she'll have some to say
about me. Would you be completely like blindside if she
was like, yeah, not it into it? Yeah, because she
(24:02):
was the one who suggested I stay longer. Yeah, all right,
good good information. Don't I think I have the receipts
on that too, not not the receipt that the that
the other number was written on. But yeah, by the way,
a big, big sorry to Holly for not getting that
(24:24):
uh that date who was a good noble try. I
do hope she listens to this. Thanks Holly for keeping
me entertained in uh my sorrow. Okay, so drinking depression. Yeah,
we went. We kind of like set up the first
the first date for you. Um, so for the second one?
(24:46):
What what do you think you guys would do? What
would you set up? Mm hmmm, I don't know, man,
I haven't thought about that yet. Something low key probably
um like uh, event like this was drinking and and
uh and eating, which is great, but like going and
doing something, you know, like why like like not not
(25:10):
just getting drunk? Great, great way for uh every first
day to go. I guess let's get drunk together every
tender day that's how it started. Or you just show
up drunk. I suppose, Um, would you rather her come
out to New York or do you want to come
back out here the second day? I think it would
(25:31):
be cool to do New York. Yeah, I agree. What
was that voice I just used? I don't know, dude,
you're going through puberty, you're growing up. It's just I'm
so proud of you. You know, I'm gonna talk like
this all right, dude, Well, thank you uh so much
(25:51):
for being on the Pradcast, And um, I'm really happy
that this went well. Selfishly, the reason why I want
this to be successful is that makes you come out
to l a more and then we get to hang
out more often. Yeah, yeah, I know. And I think
you're a great guy and she needs a normal guy
(26:11):
in her life and you are. This isn't a a
slight on you, but you're a very normal guy, you
know for sure. I know what you mean. So I'm
happy that you guys had had a lot of fun
and I'm just I'm just still flabbergasses that she was
able to bring it back. But I am I am too. Yeah,
(26:32):
that's a that that is a badass woman to uh
to be able to bring that back. She got to work,
all right, buddy, Well go back to work, Go sell
some whatever you sell two people um in the finance industry,
and everyone go followed Derek at what is what is
your Instagram? It's uh so my my last name is paid. Yeah,
(26:56):
but I just say Pet now, Yeah, it's easier that way,
Pet Derek. Yeah, so Path go falling up at Path Derek.
And then of course the Betchs podcast is is really
great funny podcast. Dude, thanks so much, man, thanks for
having me come out. Man, I love you, buddy. Let
me see, well as if I'm going to jump in
here and tell you all about article dot com A
(27:18):
R T I c l E. Dot com article, you know,
like an article of clothing or an article of the newspaper.
Article dot com It is beautiful, well made furniture. If
you're looking to upgrade your furniture, this is the place
you need to go because look, you've had some of
that stuff since college. It's kind of junkie looking. Nobody
wants to tell you that, but it's true. That end table,
you kind of put it together wrong. But you can't
(27:40):
fix it because you'd have to rip the whole thing apart.
It wouldn't work. Yeah, you still have it. It's time
to upgrade that stuff. You just need the right price
and the best look. Right, that's what you're looking for.
Article dot com is the place to go. It's an
online only furniture company and you have no idea how
much they can save by eliminating all the costs associated
with traditional retail, and therefore they can are a lot less.
(28:00):
They're able to keep prices low and quality high because
they have no showrooms. Those sales people just savings and
they're serious about shipping, and in you need to be
serious about shipping. Article dot com is no matter how
many items you order, every order is shift at a
flat rate of forty nine dollars. If you help getting
set up, they have people to do that for you.
I have spent most of my life it seems like
(28:22):
sitting in a garage trying to put together a piece
of furniture, and I do it wrong. And like I
said before, if you do it wrong. You're screwed. There's
nothing you can do. You cannot come back from that
without buying a new one. No issues here. They will
set it up for you. They will bring it to

I can't believe it. I know. Has have you ever
heard of someone almost the closest you can get to
(29:45):
standing somebody up and then making it and then still
making the person like them. It's crazy. All I would
think is this is not bode well for our future.
He's gonna be late for everything and I can't count
on her to show up places and that would bother me.
Are you talking like as a producer for the show
(30:05):
a day? Obviously both now, but on a date? I
think that would bother me. I think like this is
a sign of lack of responsibility or something disrespect. So yeah,
I have a thing that being late to things really
bugs me because the reason why it's a very selfish
act because it implies that you think your time is
more valuable than everyone else's and that annoys me. Um,
(30:28):
but I get it, Like she's a busy girl and
there's birthday parties and she's on your cell phone, so
like it's fine, and like it's it's funny for this
podcast that like she didn't know the time changed, Like
that's the most step for an entire week do you
think that like people were just like, so, like what
I do with my girl friend if I know we've
got to be somewhere soon, because at a certain time,
I will usually buffer it with like a half an hour,
(30:50):
you know, which is a little white lie, but it
gets us there around the right time. Do you think
that she's been living her life for the past week
on the wrong time and she's been like showing up
at the right time, but people have been lying to
her about the time, so she didn't know that she
would be you know what I'm saying. So everyone's like
(31:12):
the party starts at twelve, everyone's like it starts to eleven.
She's on this the wrong time, the wrong time, and
so she's getting there on the right at the right time.
You know what I'm saying. You may be right. They
tell her an hour early, she's up in our late.
She's right on time. Maybe that's her life. Yeah, oh man,
all right. We have a woman on the Secret Show
(31:33):
who says that the people who have this trait and
it's trade people have that are consistently late. It is
a neurological disorder and there's nothing they can do about. Really.
I don't agree with that I think it is disrespectful
and you could do something about it. She says, Nope,
it's out of my hands. It's how I was made
and that I need to respect that. So but this
woman is one of those people that's always late. Yeah okay,
(31:55):
but she says she talked to a therapist about it,
and that's what he told her, neurological problem. Yeah okay. Well,
you know, we're bringing the therapists back in very soon
because we're gonna have to get what the plan for
this show is that we're gonna have. Now, we're gonna
hear steph side of the story, but we can't because
she's at the Bellar Country Club right now with the
other Armish people. So so I guess next episode will
(32:17):
hear her side, right, is that the idea? And then uh,
and then we'll bring Derek back on and we'll see
how their two stories aligne and then we'll see what
happens with this book and just I don't know this
young love, which is crazy, right because like when I
pitched this, I was just like, let's just get my
buddy out here. So I have like we go down
drinking and stuff kind and I almost Derek's nice guy,
(32:40):
you know. But here's the thing. The last episode, when
I showed her pictures, she was like, no, not into it,
not attractive enough. Derek looks exactly John Krasinski. That's the
first thing I thought, it looks exactly like so much.
So like I've been out with him where people will
come up and ask her pictures and be like and
(33:01):
and he's like, oh, yeah, you know, thanks for watching
the Batchel And they're like no, no no, the office and
he's like, no, no no, no, I'm not that God. This
goes to prove that if a guy finds a woman
hot enough, he will overlook so much. Yeah he's hot, yes,
(33:25):
and therefore you can do whatever she wants. Yeah, exactly,
it must be nice to be so hot. I went
out with a girl wants in story and by the way,
I am a guy. I don't drink alcohol. I don't
do any of that stuff. I went out with a
girl once who was a literal crackhead. Loved crack because
she looked like Lisia Silverstone back in this and this
(33:45):
was in the age of Clueless and Alicia Silverstone's prime.
She looked just like her. I overlooked the fact that
she's doing cocaine in my apartment, no crack cocaine. Correct, well,
she was actually snorting in my apartment, but she preferred crack.
She had a whole litany of reasons why she preferred
smoking crack over snorting cocaine, in terms of the taste
in the back of your nose and all that stuff
(34:06):
back your throat. She had a whole diet tribe on that,
and I was like, fine, whatever, care less. It's an
extreme example, but it's true. Very extreme example. Is she
always she ever late? I don't remember. And we haven't
(34:26):
even gotten to the fact that she used a Wikipedia
page to prove she was twenty one. I don't even
have a Wikipedia I couldn't even use it, but I
needed genius. And some think you could just create your
own Wikipedia page, but you can't. Because I did that once,
they'll take it out. Yeah, I did, took me off.
I mean, people think that Wikipedia is just like a
free for all and anybody can do anything on there
and you can't trust any of it. But they say
(34:48):
that actual physical encyclopedias have errors in them like crazy.
There's like, you know, a couple of hundred errors in
a typical volume of Encyclopedia's. Wikipedia has fewer errors because
they can actually get fixed. We're in a book there permanent.
In Wikipedia, they're temporary. So yeah, but is that an
l a thing? Just pull up your Wikipedia page. But
(35:08):
you can go edit Wikipedia pages like right now. So
if you were nineteen and you have Wikipedia page, you
could go in edit it and then go to the
bar probably take him an hour to check it to
fix it. So yeah, you're right. I do actually love
that and also like very resourceful in her part. I
love about this whole thing is that the one problem
that Steph had with guys before is that they basically
(35:30):
mooch off for She pays for everything. They end up
moving into her place or whatever. And I wonder if
it was a ploy on on her part to be like,
I'm not bringing money so they have to pay for me. Um,
But I do I think it was a good thing
for her to see a guy be like, don't worry
about it, I got it, and obviously like I'm sure
(35:53):
knowing Derek, I'm sure he just thought it was funny, like,
let's see if we can get in with the Wikipedia page,
like you know, like I don't know, let's try um,
so I can see him like not being turned off
by that, you know, but it might be different. I
could see both sides of that, I think. I think
if it's the other way around, it's it's such like
(36:13):
a peacocking thing for a guy to be like, well
let me show you how famous I and here's my
Wikipedia thing. But for her, I think it's like it's cute.
All right, Well, next episode we're gonna have hopefully staff
comes back. So we're giving up on her for today
because really she could walk in here at any time,
but she probably wouldn't because she doesn't ever phone on
(36:33):
her But also like does she know how to get
here without using ways? Or she can't call an uber?
She is lost on the mean streets of l A. Guys,
that's an interesting thing because once upon a time we
had a bunch of phone numbers in our heads. We
were actually able to memorize phone numbers. Now we don't
know anybody's phone number ever, because it's all on our phones. Similarly,
I think we don't ever know how to get anywhere
(36:54):
because we rely on our phone so much. We're gonna
find her in like downtown l A, live ing under
a bridge, so disheveled and she like, guys, I just
don't know where I am. All right, Well, hopefully next
week we find her. Hopefully she's okay. By the way,
if you want to join me on the Napa Valley

Radio podcast, then this is the place for you. Steph.
I don't know if stuff's gonna make it. I'm not
sure we can count on that. What if we get
(38:00):
Derek to come to this and have her go as well.
I think that's a great idea and could and then
Derek can kind of be our handler, you know, just
make sure she's in the right place, all right, guys, Um, well,
thanks for listening. I'm sorry that the person whose podcast
is says wasn't here. But next week maybe she'll be
back and we'll find out the other side of the
story between the date between Steph and uh Derek Paith
