00:00Season 2, The Valley, that trailer was intense.
00:03How are you feeling?
00:05You know, listen, it's the second go-around
00:08and you learn so much from the first time
00:11that you kind of know how the process works
00:13and you know that hopefully one day you're the villain
00:17and one day, next day, you're the hero, you know?
00:19What era of Jesse are we going to see?
00:22You know, I hope people just respond to the work
00:25that I've been doing from, you know, myself and my parenting
00:28and, you know, the work that I've been doing
00:31with my girlfriend and, you know,
00:34it's just kind of a personal growth journey for me
00:37and I hope that comes across to, you know, the audience.
00:40In the trailer, you know, there were some serious allegations
00:43from Michelle about your drinking and abuse.
00:47What was your response to that?
00:49You know, Michelle has her own experience
00:52and I have my own experience and I would never invalidate her.
00:55I think people are extremely intelligent
01:00where they know that trying to create a one-sided narrative,
01:05you know, you can see right through that
01:07and words don't mean as much as what, you know,
01:10when you see what the camera shows,
01:15like that's what you should be hearing.
01:17You know, what you see is what you should hear
01:18because the words don't mean anything
01:20and it's only a one-sided narrative.
01:22So, you know, but she has her experience and that's how she feels
01:25and, you know, I can't invalidate that.
01:29Speaking of harsh words, I mean, you did call her a hooker in the trailer.
01:33Any regrets about saying that?
01:35What are we going to see?
01:36Yeah, you know, I think my biggest problem is,
01:39and I got it tattooed on my arm,
01:40Emotion Cloud's reason and, you know,
01:43the strongest person, regardless of the work they're doing,
01:48in a moment of weakness can be triggered.
01:50And, you know, there are certain words like,
01:53you can say I drink too much.
01:54You can say, oh, he's an alcoholic.
01:56But when you call somebody a drunk,
01:58that implies something a lot deeper, the messiness of it.
02:02And it was a triggering thing for me
02:04because I'm trying to raise a little girl
02:06and her mother is calling her father a drunk.
02:09And what is she going to end up trying, you know,
02:13she's going to end up with a drunk, right?
02:15And that was very triggering for me.
02:16And I think it was unfair of Michelle,
02:18but it was certainly unfair of me to use that word.
02:22And I've apologized for it.
02:24And, you know, I had to realize that I also have a daughter.
02:30And, you know, I'm learning how to talk to
02:33and treat women differently.
02:34And, you know, it was just a weak moment for me.
02:37How is co-parenting going between you two now?
02:42You know, whether Michelle and I are in a good place,
02:46it doesn't matter because we're doing our best with Isabella.
02:50And she's super happy.
02:51And, like, Michelle and I today were at orientation for kindergarten
02:55together, you know, standing side by side.
02:58And we've, you know, come to the agreement
03:02that we're putting her in a very safe position.
03:05We can pretty much make the decision
03:07of what we are going to do with her.
03:09And, you know, I take her down to Newport quite a bit.
03:12And she's recently moved in with Erin.
03:15And, you know, so we are doing our best for her
03:18while we make a mess out of what's going on between the two of us.
03:22Oh, God.
03:23Well, I can't wait to see that.
03:25How is it going filming with Michelle's new boyfriend, Erin?
03:28You know, Erin and I started off with a pretty good relationship.
03:32We had a fourth birthday party for Isabella last minute at my house.
03:38And I decided if I was going to invite Michelle,
03:41I might as well invite Erin as well.
03:43And it was a chance for the four of us all to meet.
03:46And, you know, he went in.
03:47And to be honest, it's a hard environment to walk into
03:50with all the guys and a bunch of our other guy friends.
03:53And, you know, I give him a lot of credit for doing that.
03:55And then as the season unfolds,
03:57you'll see more and more time that we spend filming together,
04:00as well as a very emotional conversation that we had in Hawaii,
04:04just the two of us,
04:05where we discussed not only the timeline of their relationship,
04:10and there's a lot of questions that you'll see unfold
04:13and a lot of answers that you'll get.
04:15But I wanted to know the physical and emotional, you know,
04:20timeline of their relationship,
04:21as well as creating boundaries as a father
04:23of what I expected from him being with my daughter.
04:27And you'll see it all kind of play out.
