The guy goes, this is the last time this is happening. Come on, boys. From behind us in the haunted trailer slash barn, we hear the garage door open and hear chainsaws. Are you kidding me? Out comes these people with masks like clowns. Scary. The guy with the gun is charging one way at us. The clowns are coming the other way at us. We're surrounded in the middle of nowhere.

I'm kind of laughing because I'm so nervous. Like I'm having fight or flight, but freeze, I guess. Yeah. I look at Paul. He doesn't look nervous about them. He's like afraid of me in the moment. Oh, no.

Did you do this? Oh, I wasn't there. He planned it. He was totally in love. Oh, my. Oh my God.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard

He kneels down and pulls the ring out. We're still surrounded.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard

So he reached out to the Trail of Terror and said, hey, this is where we had our first date. I know it's your off season. Do you mind if we just come on the property so I can propose? And they're like, absolutely. And then the guy sends a message like an hour later and is like, do you want us to scare her? And sends this whole...
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
plot for how they would scare me and he was really unsure and finally was like we could do like a light scare like thinking that they're gonna pop out somewhere like the gun was not mentioned threatening of our lives the chainsaws he's got the ring out i feel like i blacked out like i really don't remember this but i know that i plucked it out of the box and i started walking to the car it was so pissed i was like i'm taking my ring i'm getting the fuck out of here
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
No, he's like laughing. He's like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. And I turn around, all the clown people start taking their mask off. Two of the scary people are our super good friends that are photographers and they captured the whole thing. So that's how we have the pictures.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
Yeah, and they brought a bottle of champagne. She had it ready. And then I started to relax. That is so funny. It was really scary.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
It's so funny because the guy who sent the whole plot that works at the trail, he's like, I'm going to see if I can round up some guys. Larry's got volleyball tonight or whatever. They're just normal dudes, but he's like, my scarers are around. They're just jonesing to scare some people.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
And is your life fun like this? He is so fun. Oh, I love this. We have two little kids now and I still pick on him for this. And he's like, it's so special. But like, I was traumatized for a bit, but I wouldn't trade it. Obviously, I got to talk to you guys.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
Yeah. Look, it's memorable. For sure. My friends that took the photos and videos, they did our wedding too. So they made this whole beautiful wedding video. And at the end, he has the footage of the proposal. And it's so loud and clear at the end. I say, white guys with guns are my biggest fear. If he was just a clown, I'd be like, okay, weirdo. Yes, I'm scared.

I don't think we're going to have a story like this. I really had a feeling. I'm so glad. He is here. And also my siblings are here. If they could just peek their heads into the sound booth. Hi there. Hi. This is the husband.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
Yes, I'm spreading the word. Can I just quickly shout out my best friend in Germany? She just had a baby and she's a big arm cherry. So I wanted to shout Jordan out.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
It would. You're in a legit sound booth. I'm at my brother's house. He does voice acting commercials and stuff. As soon as I got the email, I was like, I need the setup. Ha ha ha.

Since you guys started doing anonymous, I was waiting for this prompt. I said, when this prompt comes out, I am locked in. They're going to pick it. And everybody in my life is like, Please don't get your hopes up. There's millions of people that listen and I said, no, this is it. May 2017, my boyfriend and I had been dating for like five years. We're talking about getting engaged.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
May 1st, we go look at rings. I pick out a ring that I love. I know he buys it that day, even though he makes me wait outside. So after May 1st, I'm on high alert, nails done, dressed up. Anywhere we're hanging out, I'm looking good. I'm ready to go. That's our proposal. May 15th, he says, we're gonna go out to dinner, wear a nice dress. I'm gonna pick you up.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
And I'm like, okay, it's gonna happen. So we start driving. He's driving past all of our regular spots. We're starting to get into some weird back roads and unfamiliar territory. After about 40 minutes in the car, he starts to slow down. I see a sign on the side of the road that I recognize. Trail of Terror. What the fuck? This is where he and I had our first date.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
There's a huge open field, which in peak season is packed with people. People are drinking, people are having snacks, they're hanging out with their friends. There's a big projector playing scary movies. And then in the far right corner of the field, there's a trail that goes through the woods that you pay to get a ticket and you walk down and they jump out and scare you.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
Year round? No, this is just an October thing. So we had our first date like the week before Halloween 2012. So to the right of the field, it's not a haunted house, but it's like a trailer connected to a barn. They makeshifted a haunted house. So that's a separate attraction, but basically an empty lot, dirt parking lot. Nobody's there. We pull in. I'm like, it's our first date.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
This is where it's going to happen. But I am oldest daughter, Virgo, notorious rule follower. Don't like to take risks. I'm not a trespasser. He is the opposite. He's youngest son. He's like, whatever, let's go. There's no other cars. There's no sign of life in this place. It's the middle of May. It's a beautiful sunny day.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
So he leads me out into the middle of the big field and he's holding my hands. He's looking at me. We're chatting and I know it's about to happen. I'm letting it sink in while still being like... I'm afraid of getting in trouble. As we're chatting from the tree line away from the trail, away from the barn, we hear a voice going, hey, what the fuck are you doing here?
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Bad Proposals
in our sappy moment and we look over and this man bucket hat sunglasses shotgun starts charging at us no I've told you kids get the fuck out of here no trespassing and I'm like I knew this was gonna happen but I'm panicking I'm like sir I'm so sorry we're leaving right now and he's like absolutely fucking not this is not happening again and I oh I'm like, this is how I'm about to die.

And my parents are going to find out that I trespassed and I went to jail. And that's how I was murdered by this man with a shotgun.

Love is NOT Blind with Paige O'Brien Peck
I was just sitting back here trying to remember. And I think it was like some sort of like Roman film. I don't know. It was like an action movie in like 2013. And I was like a 13 year old. And I just like walked out to go like fuck around the little plaza with my friends. Like we had nothing to do with the film itself.

Love is NOT Blind with Paige O'Brien Peck
99, 99. I snuck in. Oh, you're still sick. That's cool.
Good Guys
Love is NOT Blind with Paige O'Brien Peck
Actually, one of my best friends in high school had a pair and he would like hide the wheels in his pockets. And then when the bell would ring, he'd like pop them in and then just roll through the hallways. They could never. Sick. It was awesome.
Good Guys
Look Mom! We Made It!
Yeah, it seems like double dipping a little bit. But I also agree with your point, Josh, that like you can do one up real big and then do one, you know, a little smaller on a budget to celebrate. But yeah, seems like a little bit of a double dip there.

Mob Adjacent with The Queen of Melrose
You know what? For the moment, you have to be. You have to be. You have to be. But I'd also probably like it if he kissed Adrienne Brody more.
Good Guys
Celebrity Spin-the-Bottle and Bieber on Ice?!
Well, thank you. I when I remember like he started coming on the scene when I was probably around like 10 years old. And I just thought he had like such a beautiful voice. And like as a, you know, young, like I had just started playing guitar maybe for like a year or so at that point.
Good Guys
Celebrity Spin-the-Bottle and Bieber on Ice?!
And I thought it was so cool because it was like, oh, he got like discovered on YouTube and he just like put himself out there and his talent kind of carried him. And Then I remember, like, the tide shifting very quickly with, like, all the kids in school being like, Justin Bieber, da-da-da. You know, like, all the boys would make fun because all the girls liked him.
Good Guys
Celebrity Spin-the-Bottle and Bieber on Ice?!
So that was kind of, like, the first exposure to, like, you know, the push and pull, I guess, of what the perception may be for someone like that. But, yeah, I cannot imagine what that pressure must be, you know? And he's got a kid now, right? Did he give birth? Yeah. So...
Good Guys
Celebrity Spin-the-Bottle and Bieber on Ice?!
Everything, everything, everything and anything under the sun. But I think it's hilarious that they made sure to include that like Shutterfly was one of the forms because now I'm just thinking about like him getting a bunch of customized scrapbooks of like different people.
Good Guys
Celebrity Spin-the-Bottle and Bieber on Ice?!
Yeah, I didn't really go to parties in high school. So I don't think I think the first time that I ever did spin the bottle was probably in college. But yeah, I mean, I went on like some double dates in eighth grade where like the guy I was with was like he had to kiss me first before the other guy would kiss the other girl like they were going to do it at the same time.

My name's Olivia. I'm a local PT. You can find me at Moved with Olivia on Instagram. I did a 5K. It was a postpartum benchmark, so my baby is six months. So that was hard, but I think I've got my time according to my watch. I feel a bit dead. It's always a lovely run. I'm local to Ryegate, and it's so nice to have them come out, and also the effort it takes to put these things together.

Hi, Peter. Hi, panel. This is Olivia from Washington, D.C. Hey, Olivia. That's great. What do you do there in Washington? I work in abortion rights, which is always an exciting time. Oh, yeah. But when I'm not doing that, I am just kicking it with my cat and playing curling. I'm sorry, you said playing curling? I do play curling. Shout out to the Potomac Curling Club in Laurel, Maryland.
