- Hey Brooklyn it's Kayden,
and I am 20 years old and I am super excited to meet you.
- (Guitar strum)
- Okay, so I had to like speed round change
for this date, because I was swimming
and now my hair is like in a bun and it's kind of a wreck.
So hopefully this date doesn't care that much about
my appearance because I feel like I am a mess right now.
The funny story about this next date is actually that his
mother DM'd me about the
like series
and she was the one who was like
oh my gosh you need to go on a date with my son.
He is a BYU hockey player, he is so cool.
And I was like that's awesome DM Betsy about him
and so she DM Betsy.
- He is a he's a cute guy so I'm excited about this date.
- Yeah, and we're going surfing and ice skating
so we have a broad spectrum we have a lot of stuff to do so
- So tell them about what had to wear too
- Oh yeah, so I've got a swimsuit on
with all with like a ton of layers
because we're going to go ice skating
and I do not want to be cold but also
I have to have a swimsuit because we're going surfing
so it was kind of a complicated outfit to figure out
like what to wear.
I'm like barely breathing in like a bra and a swimsuit
and a top and a sweater and like all of these things.
- Hi
- [Betsy] A little late
Good how are you
- Good
- Oh thank you, they're beautiful thank you so much.
- [Betsy] OK even
the little decoration has a mask on you know.
- OK first of all, look at how beautiful these flowers are
also they smell so freaking good.
I did not get those on camera because
we were in the restaurant and there was music playing
he plays hockey at BYU the college
and he actually has diabetes.
Type one diabetes and he does like all of these firesides
and all of these like service things for kids with diabetes
and just brings awareness to that
so I thought that was really cute really cool
that he does all that and uses his platform
to kind of spread awareness and just to like encourage kids
that they can do whatever they want
even though they have diabetes and all this fun stuff.
- Well one really cute thing too
is he was saying that he wasn't taking care of his diabetes
when he was younger and the doctors were like
at this rate by the time you hit age 20
your not going to have, your kidneys will not be functioning
you will have lost your eyesight
and right after that doctors appointment
he watched the Olympics
and one of the guys that was playing hockey
had diabetes and so that became like his hero
and he's like I'm going to take care of myself
I want to be a hockey player.
- Yeah and like he has pursued it and he's totally done it
and he has full function of his eyesight
and all those things
- He is helping
- And he is helping other kids so it's really sweet
that it's kind of come full circle.
His idol helped him and now he is kind of helping others.
- (Music)
- Jacket
- Oh this is so sweet!
Oh sweet!
Guys I got some merch going on here
- [Betsy] What, that is so cute!
- That's so fun!
- [Brooklyn] Well I am getting a little pampered
because I was struggling trying to lace up my own skates.
This should give you a nice idea
of how well I am going to be on the ice.
- I will teach you
- [Brooklyn] Not great
(laughing)
- [Betsy] You know that is cute
- You know me too well
- [Betsy] So cute
Brooklyn look how good you are doing on those skates
- I have walked and I haven't fallen
but walking is a lot easier than gliding.
- [Betsy] Kayden is like taking us to all the background
area we get to see where they play
- Oh the Olympics were here in 2002.
They actually played in this stadium
- No way
- Some of best hockey players in the world
have played on this ice
- [Betsy] No way!
So you are looking at the ice that the pros play on
- (Upbeat music)
- [Betsy] Look at, look at those crossovers.
Look at those crossovers.
(Upbeat music)
- We decided we were going to have him
go really really fast and see if he can catch up with me
while I go really really slow.
- (laughing)
- So I am going to start and then he is going to start
- (Upbeat music)
- [Betsy] Whoo! Brooklyn!
- I am actually quite impressed with myself
because I thought I would be worse.
- (laughing)
- He is like standing circles and I am like no me, me
I am doing good.
- [Betsy] I mean you're all right you're okay.
It's fine, whatever it's fine
Alright you gotta tell us you got to point to where you are.
- [Kayden] Right there.
- [Brooklyn] That's him, that's him.
- [Kayden] And right here
right here
- [Betsy] There he is
- [Brooklyn] Do you have a number?
- 14
- 14. Everyone look for 14
- Won two championships.
Well not last year, the year before.
So this was the Mountain West Conference Championship.
And then,
this one was the Wasatch Cup so that's all the Utah teams.
- [Brooklyn] So cool
- So we won two championships that year.
- [Betsy] Basically Brooklyn you are out with a big deal.
He is kind of a big deal
- Aw she's a bigger deal
- He said that the team got me this gear.
Like the BYU hockey team.
Which I think is so sweet
- [Betsy] What!
That is so cute!
- I know it's really sweet, and I have a hockey puck
which was freaking cool because I have never played hockey
and look at how cool this thing is.
Like the actual BYU hockey puck
- That is really cool
- I know it was really awesome.
He's genuinely the sweetest guy, like seriously so sweet.
Like every time I was on the ice and I was like
Oh my gosh I just know I'm doing bad
because I'll like laugh at myself
I'm that kind of person I will like laugh at myself
and just know I am just going to do bad.
But he would get really serious like no you're doing awesome
like he was so reassuring like he was so sweet.
Which I think is so nice because some guys don't know
how to like be complimentary and he's really great at that
so
- Good job mom.
- Yeah good job you raised a good boy.
- (Music)
- Okay number one,
so sweet I was like shivering in my towel soaking wet
so he gave me a towel
his towel, which I thought was so sweet.
But also two funny parts of this whole scenario.
One I ate it!
Because I'm not, I've never done this before
- [Betsy] We say caught that
- Yes we caught that
and my pants came completely off my body in the water
and then all these grown men like watching me
and I was like good.
I don't know if anybody saw anything so
- [Betsy] You couldn't.
- Nobody acted weird
but it was like my whole everything was out
and then also I didn't think to bring underwear
on this date
so I like am currently going commando in my jeans.
This date has been sweet and fun
but also a first time for a lot of things.
(Laughing)
- (Upbeat music)
- [Betsy] Alright I gotta know how was the date?
- It was super fun.
She is a party so, it was a blast.
Like she makes everything more fun.
- [Betsy] You could tell she was loving the date
and you did the funnest activities
and think my favorite thing was watching you
teach her how to skate
cause you could tell she was like nervous
but then you were holding her hands.
I think the girls are going to die when they see that.
- I took her backwards and
I'm like do you want go fast again?
And she's like uh one times enough
she was definitely she was scared but she did good.
- [Betsy] What was your first impression of her?
- Uh I would say just saw how genuinely nice she is
and her eyes, like she's so pretty and just
like she's nice on camera and she's nice off camera too.
Genuine nice
- [Betsy] Oh yeah, oh good. I'm glad you saw that
because that's what like I see you know.
And what would rate the date?
One out of ten, ten being the best obviously.
- Ten for sure, it was super fun.
- [Betsy] Oh good
- One of the best dates I've been on
- [Betsy] Really?
- Yeah
- [Betsy] Oh good, okay thanks for the interview.
- Yep, no problem.
