Chapter 1: How did Dylan Efron become known on reality TV?

983.633 - 990.798 Dylan Efron

And yeah, I think like that type of storytelling is that like we want to do something similar this upcoming year. We have a project in mind.

0

1013.573 - 1040.227 Nick Viall

like wow i don't really know it i like that was like uh like i felt like i was an adult when i became 28 not like you know because of like shit i went through absolutely is there any like what moments in your life in adult life were pivotal for you where you feel like you you maybe learned some tough lessons or that were transformative that really can't maybe you had to go through it shook you up you know for me it was like a relationship couple relations with a couple different girls that are like emotionally just kind of fucked me up and i had to

0

1040.427 - 1051.696 Nick Viall

you know, learn about like what role I played or, you know, and yeah, at first it's just like, you're a victim of, you know, you know, when you're, when you're, when you're down bad, it's always like, how could this happen to me?

0

1051.736 - 1073.828 Nick Viall

And I think part of being an adult was the willingness to reflect about like, yeah, I can still be hurt, but I can simultaneously be upset and hurt and feel wrong and still be willing to like look in the mirror and, and figure out what I can learn from this. Like, do you have any moments like that that you felt were kind of pivotal defining moments in adult life?

0

1075.049 - 1103.146 Dylan Efron

it's it's tough like I my life hasn't been all a cakewalk there's definitely been some really challenging things that have happened in our family and stuff so like I think all that has prepped me in a good way and I think I've always had a good head on my shoulder my insecurity was more of like just being comfortable as who I am and putting it out there online if anything so like maybe just that deep-seated fear of seeing the fame that my brother had and not wanting to step there and stuff like that so

1104.046 - 1115.619 Dylan Efron

I can't say there's anything in particular, but I, I feel like, yeah, I've always, I've always been, had a pretty level head in that way. What's, uh, what's your love life like these days? I'm in a relationship.

1115.639 - 1119.564 Nick Viall

You are in a relationship. Okay. That's real bummer for all your fans. Like, uh,

1119.964 - 1147.517 Dylan Efron

no it's it's cool because she she's actually not on social media and she works a 40-hour week job like it's it's cool how did you guys meet um originally in high school we're from the same hometown yeah so it's it works out really well like it's not like i'm hiding her from the world or anything like she understands the job like all that stuff she doesn't really like being on camera she loves your guys's podcast i wouldn't know about it if she

1148.217 - 1164.705 Dylan Efron

Yeah. She's the one that introduced me. Love that. When did you, what are your tattoos from? Just different times I've traveled. Okay. Just spur of the moment. Like this was supposed to be a free tattoo in Malta. I was going to get on my leg and then it turned into this. Okay. And then this was in Costa Rica.

Chapter 2: What was Dylan Efron's experience on 'Traitors'?

1403.522 - 1405.283 Natalie Joy

You just don't love soap that much.

0

1406.124 - 1424.883 Dylan Efron

That might be, I'm not soaping myself crazy every day. Like I'll clean it. I'm not dirty. I'm okay with being dirty. Like I love camping. I love a lot of stuff. When I'm home, I'm clean. But like, so like I love going in the ocean. I'll like rinse off after going in the ocean, but I don't think I need a whole nother soap bath after that.

0

1425.034 - 1427.636 Natalie Joy

You don't feel like you need to like wash all the salt off. You're kind of like, oh.

0

1427.657 - 1429.278 Dylan Efron

Well, that happens if I just rinse off, right?

0

1429.398 - 1429.718 Natalie Joy

For sure.

1429.738 - 1454.673 Dylan Efron

Yes. I'm losing the spot. Yes, yes, yes. So like I showered this morning, went to the pool and then like showered off in the little. You showered and then went to the pool? Yeah, see, I'm showering a lot these days. It's too much water. I didn't know it was a decision. I was like, it's sunny out. I'm going to go swim. But yeah, so I woke up and showered, believe it or not. Like your pool?

1454.853 - 1462.675 Dylan Efron

No, like the one in my gym. Okay. Yes. But then after I did that, I'm right in front of the camera scratching.

1463.455 - 1465.016 Nick Viall

It's okay. We'll cut to the close. Okay.

1465.196 - 1476.483 Dylan Efron

Yeah. So then like, yeah, after the buoy, get over here. After the pool, I just like use the public shower right there, rinse the chlorine off in a way. I still smell like chlorine, I'm sure.

Chapter 3: How does Dylan Efron feel about growing up as Zac Efron's brother?

4781.159 - 4783.962 Dylan Efron

I swear it takes me an hour to fold 10 shirts.

0

4784.142 - 4790.707 Nick Viall

I fucking hate it. But it so works for us because the things that I hate, she likes, and vice versa.

0

4790.927 - 4815.909 Dylan Efron

That's great. That's a good relationship. what like there are the things where yeah so like I'm still figuring out the dishwasher I just moved I've never had a dishwasher so like I yeah I'm figuring it out like I'm putting the stuff that shouldn't go in there in there yeah so that's new she knows what's I like whoever cooks the other person cleans up after cooking Ideally, that would be nice.

0

4816.129 - 4817.29 Dylan Efron

Yeah.

0

4817.731 - 4818.411 Nick Viall

I won't let her cook.

4818.451 - 4822.254 Natalie Joy

Well, we do have a baby that needs to be bathed. So she, that is... It is nice.

4822.294 - 4831.941 Nick Viall

Natalie bathes wherever I can clean the kitchen. Yeah, that's good. But we do have our nice... We're in a routine. We never really even had to negotiate that. It just kind of worked. Who vacuums? Not me.

4832.222 - 4834.043 Dylan Efron

Yeah, see, I don't like vacuuming either. No.

4835.144 - 4839.007 Nick Viall
