We're back with part two of our special podcast with comedian, podcaster, actor, author, and "Bachelor" super-fan Jared Freid.

Ryan, Jen, and Gina talk to Jared on "Playing the Field" about his life as a standup comedian, moving to Florida, and how he ended up a part of "The Bachelor" cruise.

Jared also talks about why having his parents in the audience at his shows brings a bunch of extra pressure. Plus, what he did on social media that made his dad upset!

We've got a new season of "The Bachelorette" looming next year with Taylor Frankie Paul from "The Secret Life of Mormon Wives" and of course MomTok. Jared shares his thoughts on why she's a good choice, yet what he is concerned about.

Then, Jen and Gina pit Jared and Ryan against each other to see which would make a better "Bachelor." Ladies, they're both single and ready to mingle. "Bachelor" producers, are you watching? We're putting these guys on a platter for you! There's a winner, but it's all in fun.

You can find more about Jared's podcasts "The JTrain Podcast" and "U Up?" on his Instagram page: @jaredfreid.

Next up on "Playing the Field" Gina is in town and we plan to have a special in-person podcast with one of our favorite Bachelor Nation couples.

The "Golden Bachelor's" Debbie Siebers appeared on "Playing the Field: A Bachelor Podcast" to talk about her time on the show and possible future in Bachelor Nation. 

She spoke to Ryan Field, Jen Matarese, and Gina Sirico from her home in Denver, Colorado. Debbie was a fan favorite from the start.

She's initially famous for her "Slim in 6" workout program, which she created for Beachbody. 

Despite her fun and energetic personality, Mel found that he had deeper connections with his final two women, Cindy and Peg, and let Debbie go just before the Fantasy Suite dates. 

Looking back, Debbie said she's enjoyed watching, except for one "cringey" moment that she shares with the podcast team. Up next is Mel’s big “Golden Bachelor” finale!

We’ll have a new episode on that and an interview with the “Golden Bachelor” himself on Thursday.
