00:00How have rehearsals been going so far and how long have you been rehearsing is it kind of like only just been a few?

00:06You know, we've only had two it's felt like a lifetime. They are brutal

00:11The longest days of my life with this one. I just look at him and I'm like how many more months?

00:19She almost drew out the contract early. No, they've been incredible. They've been incredible. She loves to work. So we've been working hard

00:25We've had like two full rehearsals about eight hours worth

00:29Working hard, we're working on the all about the details all about well

00:33That's something that we like clicked over very detail oriented people. So it's just been a lot of meticulous work

00:38Which I think is going to pay off. Hopefully

00:41How would you describe your dancing skills? Where are the strengths where the weaknesses?

00:45What do we got to work on strengths are I can pick up choreography pretty well

00:50So I'm hoping that will serve me but weaknesses are the fact that I've never done anything like this. No ballroom

00:57No partner dancing. In fact, I actually have a history of like hating partner dancing because I just don't trust others

01:04So this is going so how's this been going so far?

01:07Brandon

01:08Well so far I've tricked her so far. She's been pretty trusting look

01:13I think I for me it's this is the most unique experience. You could be a

01:18Professional ballerina this has it's completely different. And so like she said, I've just been taking it so slow

01:25We've been working over every detail making sure all the stones are laid right so that the rest of season we can build a great

01:30success

01:32Is there any advice that you gave her about being a part of this journey in general?

01:36I mean look it's a marathon not a sprint

01:39It's a lot of weeks and a lot of work

01:41And so I think just taking it week by week making each one unique, you know taking on the role each week

01:46It makes it fresh keeps you enjoyable

01:49Is

01:50There a song or an artist in particular that you're looking to hopefully dance to this season. Yeah, we have a list

01:59Let's start naming a long list. Actually, we've been scheming. Oh, we actually like plotting like maniacal laughter

02:08But we are you trying to?

02:10The finale I'd be really excited because I'm gonna produce and write and sing my own song that we're gonna dance to

02:18Well, I'll keep it a secret but you guys would be in for a treat

02:21We're gonna start putting that in the producers ears by watching these don't if you heard my voice in your ear you we would get

02:27Eliminated that night

02:30If you want to self-eliminate that's when we that's we bring that yeah, I sing solo solo you can't hear me

02:35That's the only way I sing

02:37Well, is there a theme night?

02:38I love all the theme nights that you guys have every season if you could come up with your own theme night

02:43What would it be?

02:45That's a good one

02:48I think that'd be a great theme. I think everybody would love it. We would love it

02:53Yeah, yeah, everyone shows up and they actually don't dance

02:56They just stand on stage for a minute and a half and talk about how amazing

03:00That's that would be that'd be a great theme night and the only thing that I've ever had to enjoy that

03:05So I would love that
