Jack welcomes a very special guest to the show; it's golf pro Garrett Powell, contestant and fifth-place finisher on season 15 of The Bachelorette (Hannah Brown's season)! Garrett not only collected roses on national television, but he's also a huge sports fan! Garrett weighs in on day 1 of the NFL Draft (00:00 - 27:05). He and Jack attempt to project how each of the five quarterbacks selected in round one of the Draft will perform at the professional level. A Birmingham, Alabama resident, Garrett is a BIG Atlanta Braves fan! He shares his thoughts on the Braves' slow start to the season, Madison Bumgarner's 7-inning no-hitter, Dansby Swanson burning sage at Truist Park in hopes of igniting a hot streak, Bryce Harper getting drilled in the face and Anthony Rizzo striking out Freddie Freeman, as Jack provides a recap of the latest news from around Major League Baseball (27:05 - 1:02:00). Later on, Garrett opens up about his experience on The Bachelorette, and shines some light on some things that viewers probably aren't aware of, regarding the true reality of reality television and The Bachelor franchise (1:02:00 - 1:29:00). He shares his casting story and opens up about how going on television sunk him in to a season of deep depression. Yet through it all, he shares how hitting his lowest point brought him to the greatest joy he's ever known: his relationship with Jesus Christ (1:29:00 - END). Garrett also answers questions from the listeners regarding his season, a behind-the-scenes look at The Bachelor franchise, and of course, controversial figure (who is now Garrett's good friend), Luke P! Come for the Draft, stay for the roses!
