bathroom until my flight the next morning. And you don't know pain until you've you've driven in a fifteen passenger, sweaty, bumpy caravan to the Cabo airport and then tried to get through customs and exp and show them your negative COVID test and do all the things, and then get on an airplane, lie back to l a X. Can't figure out how to freaking get the l X to get home to just not die. So that's where I am right now. But I am excited because we got

a good show for you. So let's see if we can make through uh this whole interview without um having to run to the bathroom is it possible maybe this is the Wells Cast. Adams and I Heart Radio podcast popped for today's episode. It's kind of bringing them back to her. It all begin If you remember in the beginning, this show is actually called Pratt Cast because Stephanie Pratt was the host and I was just like, kind of like the guy that was just trying to keep the

treads in the road, keep it going. Then she, uh, she left, She left the Hills and moved to London. And then we're like, all right, what are we gonna do? And the Wells Cast was born. I was just in reading a bunch of people. But guess what, guys, The Hills are alive. With the sound of season two. We're

gonna revive this beauty. And this is crazy because the entire time that we did the Praadcast, I don't believe we ever had this guest on, which was dumb because in my mind, she was always kind of like the big star on the show. So we're starting season two off with a bang. And if you guys have seen the teaser four The Hills New Beginning airing on May twelve and nine pm on MTV, you'll notice that she is talking about kissing Brody. What I thought he was

just married? What? And then they got divorced and then now whoa? All right, we're back in a baby, The Hills are back. We're gonna talk everything. We're talking about everyone from Heidi and Spencer, Frankie, Jason and Ashley Staff, justin Bobby, my boy with a great hair, Brandon Lee. Oh and um it's christ Beck she is. Oh my god, it's gonna be a good one. Stick around. This is the Hills cast. You don't want to miss, with the one, the only Adriana. Let's do it. All right, we're back.

I can't believe it's here. The Hills are back again. Season two of New Beginnings comes out May twelve on MTV. I have the star of the show, Adrina on how are you doing? I'm good? How are you? I'm good? Do you like being called the star of the show. I feel like I'm not really this. I feel like everybody's a star. We all do the show together to make it what it is. No, I had my Adrina to it. I think there are hierarchies here. I saw the teaser. Well, thank you, I'm going to take that.

I saw the teaser I'm to go ahead and say it, what the brody what's going on here? I mean, Brody and I've always had a flirty chemistry or connection where you know, I've been there for him through hard times, He's been there for me, and we've always been flirty with each other. And I think with us being single, the flirt nous lead to extra flirty which are our

friendship be evolved into some things. So I can't give too much away, but I think when you guys watched the show, you'll get to hear all the juicy details of how the kiss was and how like where it went, what actually happened. But it's like a roller coaster. I mean I assume so, but like I feel like this is like a big bomb to drop before the season

even started. Are you surprised that New Beginning season two even came back, because I know you guys were supposed to do the show and then COVID hit, like every production kind of shut things down. So were you surprised

that even came back? You know, I was. I don't think any of us really thought we were going to get a second season, so when we did, we were really excited and we were all just make it the best we could because the first season was so heavy and we're with the news and the new you know, opportunity to be like, let's all give it our all and just go for it and do whatever we need

to do to make it. Um. So we were all on board, and then we started filming like two or three months, and we had good momentum and things, storylines were flowing, you know, flawlessly, and then we got shut down for nine months, so I kind of screwed up the momentum and um. Then when we started, like we were all in a different headspace and all kind of how to start over again. Obviously you can't give too much away, but is covid part of your guys the

storyline on the show? You know, I think we definitely addressed COVID. It's not a huge part of it. But I'm not really sure how they're going to edit that together. I don't know, to be honest, I have no idea, Like, we'll watch it when you guys watch it. But we did talk about it. We have to wear masks walking up, and we talked about how it affected our lives and our businesses and how it changed our lives some for good, some not so good. So everybody's very open and honest,

more than they've ever been. Are there any new characters this year that you think are going to make a splash on TV? Um, there's a couple, you know, Sean on the show, Sean Stewart, and he's such a character. I think he brings so much life and personality because during the pandemic and filming, we were only filming, you know, in a controlled area where we're all tested, and we

can only film with our group of friends. So bringing in one or two new people it was just like a breath of fresh air and like new personalities to mix it up. UM. And then Caroline is on the show and she you know, she doesn't hold back, and she's spice sy, that Italian spice, and she's really funny and knows the whole crew, so she has a lot of history with everyone who's not back. I saw that

Misha is not coming back. Stuff isn't coming back. Anybody else that's it from last season, just Misha and Steph. Why do you think that they didn't come back? Well, I think for Misha, you know, coming from the movie world into reality, it was kind of like a shock, and she never watched the Hills. She didn't know this history of our friendships or the dynamics. So she was kind of like, you know, like caught off guard, like whoa Like I don't even know how to react. Who's

fighting with who? Why are you guys fighting? Like? So she kind of sat back a lot, and you know, it wasn't as opinionated because she didn't she couldn't just dive in. She didn't really know what was going on. Um, she was a little more reserved and it was very different to her. But and I think maybe that's why maybe if she was on second season, I don't know, it just wasn't really her thing, to be honest. And

as far as Stephanie, I have no idea. Yeah, okay, So I mean we got to talk about Kristen's in the teaser as well, like what's the t on that Kristine. I wish she was on the entire season because we all love her, we all know her. Um, you know, she's back and forth, her home is in Nashville. So just her coming on was amazing because we all had the best time with her and she just brought you know, we're just with our group all the time again, So Kristen comes like, don't wait, stay on. You know, she

has such good energy and just it's Kristen. We love her, and um, she definitely was Kristen and was opinionated and like we danced and had the best time kind of caught up with all of us Stuffarately, I was hoping that she was going to be on the entire thing and it was just gonna be like really blast from the past experience. I mean, I can't say how much she's on, but she's definitely on. Are we going to see a lot of Justin Bobby because he's my favorite,

my favorite, and I would imagine he's your favorite. Yeah, I feel like he's my favorite. He's honestly the most rationable and sensible person this entire season, I feel, and um, him and I get to a place where we're good, so everyone will get to see kind of we talked about everything and get to a good place and like where we evolved. Um, but yeah, Justin it really opened up this season about who he really is and where

he comes from. And his dad's on the show and he goes back to his you know, his house from his childhood, so he really like opened himself up and was so more more vulnerable this season than he's ever been, and I thought he was really vulnerable last season as well. Is he still with that same chick? I don't even remember her name. Remember, he was like bringing her around and she involved which one, No they're not together anymore, lindsay, yeah, no,

they're not together. So I don't know. I don't even know. I can't really say what happened. I guess I'll have to watch the show and kind of hear what happened, or if he even talks about it. I don't know. Brand Leys coming back, right, Brandon's back. We all love Brandon. He's so funny and just again, he's such a character. I feel like Brandon was like a duck to water or when it came to reality TV coming in last season and Misha wasn't no knock against Misha. But like,

I think I can understand it a little bit. If you asked my fiance, who's an actress, to go on a reality show, she would be so confused as to what the hell to do. But if you asked me to do it, who's done? You know, seven or eight seasons, a bunch of different reality shows, it would be it would be easy because like the beats are different, and your time constraint is different, your shoot times are clearly different.

So yeah, I always thought. I was like, this is gonna be a really tough thing for Misha to be like, wait, I'm still on camera, Like I'm so confused, where's my mark? Yeah, some of my actor friends. To my friend Krista Allen, she came to one of our filmings last season, and her as an actress on like scripted shows, was like, Adrina, I don't know how you do it. I could never do what you do. And it's like how you're an actress so you get it. But she's like, no, it

is is totally different. So it's just I guess it's two different worlds. I don't want to belay, but I have to just because, like I think a lot of people are just like whoa, what's going on? Like you dropped this bomb that you and and Brody kiss. So I guess my question is is back in the day, were you guys romantic, Like did you think he was hot back and like the first iteration of the show, or was he like completely off limits? What's the deal? Back?

In the day, nothing ever happened. We were just flirty. We'd always stay up and talk. We'd go to you know, we'd all do these group trips to Costa Rica, to Hawaii, Chicago or wherever, and we'd always we would always just be the ones sitting there or talking and laughing and like we just got along so well. It was like just easy and everybody would always tease us like, oh there's a dream and brody again, but nothing ever happened.

So and then it got to up now on the show, we talked about like, I don't even know if I should give this much up, but it's just like not wanting to cross that line friendship. You don't want to room your friendship of that long. So if you do, you know you're risking losing a friend um crossing that line. So that's something that we talked about on the show and they'll see what happens. But yeah, in the past, there was there were flirty moments. For sure. Is it

because he has longer hair now? Because I feel like you like guys with like long, like cool hair, it's so funny, Oh my god. But I think it's just the same exact thing. I think we're just both single and a different mind space now and just kind of like not holding back or caring what anyone thinks, or you know, the judge opinions and our group of friends and everyone will see this on the show are very

opinionated and feel very entitled to know everything. And at all the dinners, it's always teasing us and saying things, and they're pushing us toward each other, which sometimes pushes you apart, to avoid each other, to stop being in the spotlight at dinner all the time. You know, were you surprised or shocked with the Caitlin Brodie separation or was that something that like kind of in the group people weren't that surprised about. I think within the group,

we weren't that surprised. Um. You know, there's a lot of things that go on that people don't really know about until it's like out there. Um. But it was just kind of be an evolving thing that two people who love each other they just grew apart and there's still really good friends and support each other and they're

still close. The fact that they can be such good friends is like, you know, I admire that that they you know, Caitlin's with someone knew, and Brodie's dating and like doing his thing and like, but they're still there for each other. But yeah, it wasn't that much of a shock. They came to a point where you kind of knew it was going to be over soon. Yeah, I guess speaking of shocking storylines, I suppose I think a lot of people are shocked that Heidi and Spencer

are still together and pumping out kids and everything. Was was that something that you guys are like, no way this is gonna work. I mean, I I kind of They are a team, their partners. They are best friends. They communicate like I've never seen a couple beyond the page as much as they are. At all times. They agree to disagree and then they move forward. They don't stay in bickering fights. I don't think I've ever really seen them in a fight. They're just they're always together.

I don't know how they do it, but they've got the formula down whatever that is. They just respect each other, listening to each other, agree to disagree, and it's the power of the crystals really centers them. I feel like, yeah, I mean, they definitely have They have giant crystals at their house, like, it's amazing. It's I've never seen such big crystals. Last thing, Is there anything you regret that happened this season? Is there things that you are nervous

about watching? Obviously you can't tell me too much, but are there things you're like, Man, I can't believe that happened. Yeah, you know, sometimes you feel the pressure of stepping it up for the sake of TV and doing or saying things you normally would never say or do. And so I feel like this season, I really looked at it as like a show, and um, I followed the guidance of producers at times and some you know, I am a little nervous to watch some of those scenes because

it's really wasn't something that I would naturally do. Some of it's very unnatural, So I feel like it's going to be very awkward to watch. And it was awkward and scene, so I can only imagine what it looks like. You now have a child, you are responsible for another human being, and you have done this whole crazy, weird, weird reality TV world. I wonder if, like you would ever allow your child to do your show or come

on bachelor shows. Is that something that's completely not cool with you, or you be down with She would have to be like in her teen we'll talk about it. But something I have enough experience with that I could be like, listen, we're gonna sit down and we're gonna watch a few shows and I'm gonna explain a few things to you and just lay it all out and then you can make your decision because this is what comes with it. Here's the pros and here's the const

and then she can make her decision. That's a good answer for it. Yeah, because at this point it's inevitable she's gonna google one day and watch it, whether I want her to or not. So there is gonna come a day where I'm gonna have to sit down with her and be like, this is what mommy did, or this is what your mom did. Don't ever do this, or this is what I should have did. Learned from it, don't make the same mistake. You've done this show long enough.

And you know I was talking to like Johnny Bananas, who you know on a bunch of other like reality TV shows actually in the viacom. Yeah he's on a first look. Yeah, I just first look. And obviously he's been on Channel That's yeah, I was on it. I did the Worst Cooks with him and lovely Guy. But you know, and and for me as well, when you do enough reality TV, you become a pseudo producer, like you know, the Beach. You understand how the show works,

and you understand what works and what doesn't. Are there things that you wish that like the Hills would do that they haven't done and for seasons going forward? Have

you ever thought that way? Yeah? You know, I think Brody and I and Hypeene Spenser of all sat down together and we've talked about this a lot because we've been in this for so long, and I know it's the pandemic, but we're like, if we would have just did this and this differently and this happened like it would have all just flowed and been easier, got more drama or more of a scene or more of a story.

It's just little tweaks here and there, just spending that extra money to make the difference in an entire episode. But it's frustrating at times, but we just at this point there's nothing we can do, so but we haven't had that talk. And yeah, it's like you do realize you know what's coming, You know what the manipulated scene is going to be, so you're kind ahead of it. They can't come out of left field anymore. Well, hey, listen, I know you are a busy girl, and I'll let

you get back to your crazy press day. But thank you for taking the time and I cannot wait for The Hills to come alive once again.
