  Speaker 1: This is the Ben and Ashley I Almost Famous podcast
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Hey friends, this is the almost Famous podcast. We were
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: here today to break down the headlines within Bachelor Nation. Now,
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: I just want to say this. At the start, we
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: did a special headlines episode breaking down the big, very
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: traumatic for Ashley and so many of Bachelor Nation breakup
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: between Matt and Rachel. Ashley didn't sleep.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: Stop it. I didn't sleep. I woke up to the news.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but then you didn't go back to bed. You
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: didn't go back to bed. You woke up and you
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: stayed up.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: I woke up and I saw the tech sar group
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: therid it was eight thirty. It didn't go back to sleep.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: You did not go back to sleep. She stayed. Oh way,
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: she tried.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: I tried to do some research to see if it
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: could be possibly a false rumor or him trying to
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: throw us off.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be a wild, wild strategy. So that
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: is a special Headlines episode. It's out there now, make
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: sure you go. I can listen to it. But we
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: are breaking down other news within Bachelor Nation. The first
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: one is this Maddi Pruit reveals why husband Grant never
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: watched her on the Bachelor.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: Well this is typical. I feel when you meet your
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: spouse after your appearance on the show, you don't meet
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: them through the show. Ben has just ever watched any
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: of your seasons?
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: It's gracious, not a chance.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, so I don't even know how this made
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: a headline, but they were doing a YouTube clip. Somebody asked,
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: have you ever watched The Bachelor with Maddy on it?
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: And he said no, never, not once, not one YouTube video,
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: not one clip. No. She starts laughing and she said like, yeah,
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: if it was reversed, I wouldn't want to date. I
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: wouldn't want to watch you date another person.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Do you think this is common, Ashley? I mean yeah,
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: most people don't. I only know a few who have watched.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Well wait, actually Jess has watched her because your mom
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: told us that wonderful little moment where she just walked
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: into the house. Yeah, her mom, she just walked into
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: the house and she was, yeah, your mom was watching
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: your season. And then she said something like did she
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: say would you date Ben? Or did just just offer
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: up like that's the kind of guy i'd want to date.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: She goes, I'd date that guy.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's so cool. Those moments are the best, probably.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: The coolest moment jess has ever had. I mean I
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: could just see her walking like I date that guy
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: and then walk out and be like, yeah, we're getting
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: married one day. Yeah, her mom watches it. Her mom
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: watched it. Jessica never like invested into it. Never, I
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: think after that moment, never really sat down and watched
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: any moment of it. And then even when like a
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: commercial comes up now where there's a scene of it,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: it's not something either of us really enjoy coming on.
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: I don't.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: I feel like if you didn't watch your partners season.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Within most Bachelor Nation couples, I know, most people don't
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: go back to rewatch it now if you're in like
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: the Sarah Hyland case with Wells, she watched that season
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: and saw Wells AND's like, I like that guy. Yeah,
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: so that's different, right, she didn't know that she would
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: be dating him one day. But if you're already dating,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: you're already a committed relationship.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: I don't know many people that would like willingly go
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: back to watch that season.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Maybe if you met ten years after the fact and
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: it's like a different lifetime, then it's more funny and
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: it depends how far your spouse got. You know, Wells
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: didn't get that far. He was eight seventh or something. Yeah,
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: like he got dumped in the episode that he kissed her.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: So like, it's funny for her to go back and watch.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: But for somebody who makes the top four, as somebody
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: who makes fantasy suites, that's a different story.
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: I don't think it's very common.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: Next headline is this Bachelor star Kelsey Anderson reveals why
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: she does always wear her engagement ring from fiance Joey.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: I've never worn a wedding ring.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Okay, well you have one tattooed, so that counts.
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: That makes sense.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm a big fan of there being
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: a symbol, whether a ring or a tattoo on that
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: finger to say I'm taken. I like the public announcement
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: of this. But this is her explanation, So, ah, where
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: is it? I don't know. I'm scared. What the heck
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: I'm joking? She said, Ah, you know, I'm joking. Huh.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: I'm just not wearing it, and you know what that means.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: It means I'm still engaged. But it's literally just a symbol. Hm.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: She goes, I've kind of warped it a bit. I
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: have to go get it fixed to. One of the
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: diamonds fell out because of how I was taking care
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: of it before. So now I'm just trying to be
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: more responsible. Okay, She said, Joey is walking around without
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: an engagement ring, and you guys didn't say anything to him.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: It's because I'm a woman. That's really nice. She did confirm, though,
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: that all things are good in the hood. All right, Well, Ben,
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: what do you think about a girl not wearing her
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: engagement ring? She does have a point with the fact
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: that Joey's walking around with that one.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: I yeah, sure, I don't know. I don't have a ring.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: I have it tattooed on my finger because.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: My dad and I stop making it seem like this
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: is not an argument to be had. What if Jess
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: went around without a ring.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: I'd be fine. I honestly, I'd be fine with it.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: She loves her rings so much, though, like this. I
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: read this and it's a totally different perspective. Kelsey has
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: every right to do what she wants to do with
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: this ring. I don't want to wear a ring because
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: I find it incredibly inconvenient to have this thing on
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: my finger that gets caught.
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: That I play with all the time.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: But if Kelsey doesn't want to, great, I just don't.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: I can't relate with that because the only example I
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: have is of a wife who won't leave the house
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: without her rings because she loves them and she wants
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: everybody to know she's married.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Me too, and I never take mine off never ever.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: I'm not one of those girls to take it off
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: for the shower for better or anything like that. So
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: even if mine was altered, I would have another one
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: on my finger.
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Sure, I mean that's that's how Jess is. She loves
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: her ring. It's something important to her. I'm actually gonna
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: be with Joey and Kelsey in less than two weeks,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: first time I've ever met Kelsey in person, which I'm
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: very excited about.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Well me too. Tell me everything about her sweetness and
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: her beauty. I will think a real life Disney princess.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: She's I heard, I hear, she's great. Joeyan is going
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: to be competing in Orlando at the Hilton Grand Vacations
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Tournament of Champions. I don't even know if that's public
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: news yet. I might just be breaking something that I'm
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: not supposed to be, but he and I will be
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: competing against each other along with Wells.
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: See who wins.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: All right, next headline is about Wells.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what. I'm really happy for my friend.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: And here's why. Social media reacted in the most loud way,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: saying Wells should have been on Traders longer.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: And I agree. But here's the headline.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Trader star Wells says wife Sarah Hyland wasn't super proud
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: of early exit. Now he did get sent home from
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Traders right away.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: Okay, so I actually need you to cover this headline
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: for me. These I don't understand Traders. I tried watching
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: Peter season because we were interviewing him about the show.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: I feel dumb watching Traders because basically, the whole plot
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: is to find people who have been labeled as a Trader,
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: and you're supposed to assess them out and that's it.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, you're supposed to guess based on the clues
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: that you have from the games and from being around
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: them and asking them questions.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Okay, so you're telling me that Wells got eliminated from
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: the cast because they didn't like him or because they
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: thought he was a trader.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: Oh, you can't not like Wells.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: No, I know, but like didn't like him as a player,
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: not as a human.
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: I don't think they trusted him. And that's I mean.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: I do get this with Wells because Wells is a sweet, sweet.
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: Boy, very nice, very loyal.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: But he does like he's he's he's witty, he's smart,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: and he could be a trader like I think if
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: there's one person in that group that would be as
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: signed to be a trader because they could play both
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: roles really well, it could be Wells because he's also
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: a gamer, like he's good. Like I think the whole
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: show saw him. He understood the rules of the show,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: which most people going on didn't, which is shocking to me.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: I know, he probably game planned, im prepped, watched previous episodes,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: had his strategy down. And my guess and based on
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: what the show showed is most people were like, he's
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: going to be too good at this. Like, either way,
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: we need to get rid of him, because he's going
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: if he's here too long, he's going to be too good.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: I feel that feel that. Okay, So comes home and
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: he asked Sarah.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: You know right away, here here's here's the friendship story
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: of this.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, please tell us the background.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: So I find out a few months early, like he's
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: going on Traders and we have an event lined up
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: to do together that he has to back out of
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: because of Traders. So he tells me, Hey, man, I'm sorry,
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: I'm going on Traders. I'm like, that makes sense of sense,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: you should do this. The reason we get invited to
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: these events is because we do these things. And that's
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: what he was saying too. Well, so he's gone in
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Scotland and I fully expect Wells to be gone. It
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: was like twenty four hours after he had texted like, hey,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: going on the show.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Signing off by yeah, few weeks.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: Like twenty four hours later, he sends a text like
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: well I'm back and we're like what happened?
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: So they don't seclude him in Scotland.
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: No, No, he came back.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: I'm sure he like showed up back to Sarah, like
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: to the house. Sarah's like welcome home, like nice forty
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: hours in Scotland. Huh, that was cool. He had bought
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: like this nice suit. I mean, the guy deserved to
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: be there longer. He he was going to be so
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: good at the game.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: So impress. Somebody said, how did your wife react when
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: you said that you were the first one vanished, and
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: he said, yeah, she wasn't super proud of me. I
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: mean there's vows that we said for better for worse,
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: so she can't divorce me over this. However, she was bummed.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: I think she ended up watching it this morning and
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: I'm like, what do you think and she was like, yay,
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: you don't look bad, and I'm like, is it that
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: it's that bad, isn't it? And she she just thought
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: that he would win, he said, And I thought he goes,
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: he goes. I thought I would win and then I
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: did it.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a weird moment because Wells kind of has
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: that like touch of gold, so like the things he
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: touches typically goes really well or he figures out how
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: to make it go really well. Yeah, I think this
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: is a weird moment for him where he touched it
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: and it like went to cole like right away blew
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: up in his face. He was saying goodbye.
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: So that's funny because my sister called me yesterday. She
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: faced I mean she face times me a lot when
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: she has a client and she has a TV in
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: her Salon, so they like watch TV together, whoever she
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: has in the chair, and so she's watching Traders and
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: she goes, we're watching Traders right now. And I go, oh,
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: you know what, that's weird that you mentioned that, because
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen Wells done like any press or posting
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: anything about it. And she goes, yeah, it's probably because
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: he just got eliminated on the first episode.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he gone, poor guy. I want I just I
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: wanted it for him, Ashley. If there was now, I
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: want you to pick one. There was a there's all
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: these reality shows that come off of like what show
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: you were on originally now Special Forces Traders, there's probably
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: some beach show. What show stands out to you the
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: most to do? Survive? Put Survivor, and I would put
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Amazing Race in that too for you.
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: Well they don't have like those doesn't matter, No, oh
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: it doesn't matter.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: I'm put them in there for you.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: Probably do Dancing with the Stars just because like it's
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: in a studio environment, okay, not the wilderness, and I
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: don't have people screaming in my face and I understand
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: it more than Traders. Yeah, I don't think i'd be
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: very good at gameplay. Do I have really any sort
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: of mask? Come on, now, I would get eliminated Night
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: one too, or they'd be like, this girl is no threat.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: You can just forever.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, now, I think you can figure it out.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: You're a gamer. You have done a spinoff.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Show though, I know I did Stars on Mars, huge success.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Huge the I think think I would prefer I would
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: enjoy Survivor and then Trader second, Special Forces third. I
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: watched Special Forces last night, and there's so many moments
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: that I would love to test myself within that they're doing.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: But you you really are sacrificing a lot. I mean
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: you're you're in it like there's no.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Ten days though.
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's fair.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: That's why I can do this for ten days, yes.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Yes, and pay for our college fund.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: You guys, we know the salaries are really good on there.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: It would really pay for an IVY league. Well, an
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: IVY league maybe during our college years, not today.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's I think that could be something interesting.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: I don't know, it's fun to think about it. You know,
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: we've been asked for there are a few. They never
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: really worked out, and some of them are like three
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: month commitments, and I just don't have that in me anymore.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: Hello to Traders and special Forces. Even though Ben and
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: I have you know, mixed feelings, we would would hundred
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: percent say yes, just letting you know we are here
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: to be in your cast. We're scared of you, but
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: very willing.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: I would actually love to do a show where there's
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: like partners that aren't married, like you just get teamed up.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: I think you and I could be a dangerous force.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: Oh because I can push you, like I can tell
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: you to do something when I know it's right, and
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: I feel like you would trust me. And then you
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: have that like other angle at it where you understand
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: the whole environment and you kind of like see things
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: I don't see.
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: I think we could really make magic happen.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: Plus we'd be so comfortable with each other that we
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: wouldn't need to be on our best behavior.
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: You know, No, we could.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: We could getet talked back at each other. Yeah, no fun,
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: let's do it. Amazing race. This sounds like an amazing
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: race partnership.
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: It's out there now.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: Final headline of today is this Kenda Wong reveals whether
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: she's chosen a baby name, if she'll share her baby online,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: and so much more.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: So she said that Mitch and her have chosen a
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: baby girl name, but we're still going through baby boy names.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: They've decided that they don't want to share the names
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: out loud because they don't want to hear other people's opinions.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: I can understand that they were saying that they were
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: debating between a couple of them, just asking opinions for fun,
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: and then like people just had you know, I hate
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: that name. Oh that scares me that that, you know,
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: So they had to keep going back to the drawing board.
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: So they're just not going to share anymore. And they're
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: not going to I don't think they're going to find
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: out whether it's a girl or a boy until it
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: comes out. How do you feel about that, ben Oh, I.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: Think it's well, not knowing.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: I feel like just adds an extra level of complexity.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: Now we know we're having a little girl, so we've
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: been able to plan for that right except the nursery
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: in whatever way we saw fit, get the clothes lined up,
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: get everything ready for a girl. I already feel like
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: there is enough unknown to this process that I don't
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: want anything else unknown.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't need any surprises.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: There's no surprises, reef surprise. Yeah, the name thing I
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: completely agree with. And you we've talked about this before,
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: but we have a name picked out. We're very excited
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: about this name. We feel very confident in this name. However,
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: we have been advised to not share the name, and
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: not because we don't want to. We would love to,
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: but it is that moment of it just takes one
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: person to be like, Eh, that's interesting for you to
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: question it, but nobody's gonna question it once. Is your
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: baby's name. I've seen this happen right. Ashley, one of
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: my best friends in the world, a human I love
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: so much, was having his first son and we're all
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: we're actually he was with a bunch of like bachelor
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: people and we're all hanging out and he said, oh,
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: we're gonna name our son Clayton, which just happened to
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: be while Clayton was the Bachelor. They're like, ooh, like
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: the Bachelor, and he's like, I don't watch that show.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know what that means. And they're like, yeah,
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: the Clayton the Bachelor right now and he's like, Nope,
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: not doing it.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: Change the name completely, No way change the name.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: Even though he doesn't watch the show and doesn't associate.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: He didn't want he you know, I guess when you
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: don't watch a show, you don't really know how big
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: of an impact it makes. But he didn't want his
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: son to be two years old and for people to
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: be like, oh.
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: Wasn't that the year Clayton was the Bachelor?
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Like, I think if one person said that to him,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: he would it would be over.
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: Well.
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: You know that Wells became a really popular name once
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: Wells was on the show.
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: I'm sure he's he like I said, he has the
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: gold touch.
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: It's different. So you know that it has to do
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: with Wells being on the show, the increase in popularity.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, people saw it and they're like, I like that name.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: That's a cool name. It is a cool name. Clayton's
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: a cool name. And I would have no problem with
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: him naming his son after a bachelor, But I think
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: it threw him off. It just took one person's reaction,
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: fair or not, for him to be completely thrown off
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: from that name. And so that is why Jessica and
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: I are keeping it to ourselves until the day of birth,
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: and then I would love for somebody to come after
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: my daughter's name. I would absolutely enjoy the moments on
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Instagram of commenting back on that. That would be a
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: blast for me to spend the first week of my
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: fatherhood just going at it.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: Well, who actually knows the name? You must have told
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: your parents? Our parents know, okay, yeah, will you tell
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: me after.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: No?
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: No, that's fine.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: Grandparents don't know, Okay. I do think that Jessica's siblings know,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: and that would be it.
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: That's all that knows.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: Okay. Yeah. So with Dawson, we had Dawson picked out,
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: you know, since I was like twenty years old, and
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: I would tell people so definitively his name is Dawson.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: His name is Dawson. So it wasn't like they could
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: really give anything but positive feedback. While going through options
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: with Hayden, so many ideas were denied, So many of
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: my favorite ideas were denied. Yeah, and that does that
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: bums you out? Like I really like Preston. I would
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: have probably wanted Preston, but Jared didn't love Preston, and
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: then like his family didn't like that at all, and
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: then my mom still has issues with Hayden.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: Han, I don't know if that's that feels like something
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: you had to take up with your mom.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: I like it.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: My dad loves it. Because I was going to name
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: him Dominic after my dad, and my dad was like no, yeah,
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: he said don't because he doesn't even feel like Dominic
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: because he's gone by Jay his whole life. And he
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: was like, no, Hayden Han is cool.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: I'm excited to see what Kendall, you know, comes up
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: with here. This is an exciting time, a lot of unknowns.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: As a fan and as a viewer, seems very It
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: seems like unnecessary stress as somebody expecting a child again.
