Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: This is the Ben and Ashley I almost famous podcast
- 0:03Speaker 1: with ONET Radio.
- 0:06Speaker 2: This is the almost famous podcast. We're here today to
- 0:08Speaker 2: break down headlines, and we do have a few Ashley's
- 0:12Speaker 2: with us to break down everything good happening in Bachelor
- 0:15Speaker 2: Nation that we want to share with you all. Ashley
- 0:19Speaker 2: first headline is this. It's a big one, the biggest
- 0:21Speaker 2: of ones. It keeps our job still available for at
- 0:24Speaker 2: least another year.
- 0:26Speaker 3: Which is cool.
- 0:27Speaker 2: The Bachelor has been picked up for season thirty now, Ashley,
- 0:33Speaker 2: rumor has it Jason Tardik is the front runner to
- 0:37Speaker 2: become the next Bachelor, along with some other names like
- 0:40Speaker 2: Dale Moss. So in your breakdown the Bachelor being picked
- 0:44Speaker 2: up for season thirty, please let us know if you
- 0:47Speaker 2: think those are two good choices for your next.
- 0:50Speaker 4: Bachelor to be for real, I wasn't sure if I
- 0:54Speaker 4: remembered this headline What's a thing, or whether I dreamed
- 0:57Speaker 4: of it. It is official, the show has been picked
- 0:59Speaker 4: up up. People were saying that they were going to
- 1:02Speaker 4: use paradise ratings paradise excitement to decide whether or not
- 1:07Speaker 4: they can continue with The Bachelor. Well, I guess that
- 1:09Speaker 4: wasn't a true statement. They are if they're between. I
- 1:14Speaker 4: don't think they'll ever pick Dale, Okay, Do I think
- 1:16Speaker 4: that in an ideal world, they would love the bachelor
- 1:19Speaker 4: to come from Paradise all on Nick and Colton. Yes,
- 1:23Speaker 4: the person is fresh in their memory. Or they could
- 1:25Speaker 4: choose someone like Jason, who is fresh on people's memory
- 1:29Speaker 4: because he's so prevalent on social media and he had
- 1:31Speaker 4: such a high profile relationship with Caitlin. I don't want
- 1:34Speaker 4: the bachelor to be either of those men. Can we
- 1:37Speaker 4: come up with somebody else?
- 1:40Speaker 2: Sorry?
- 1:40Speaker 4: But both of them seem like they'd be in it
- 1:45Speaker 4: too much for the attention.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Yeah, well they are the two front runners from what
- 1:50Speaker 2: we're hearing behind the scenes right now. We're going to
- 1:52Speaker 2: see how that happens. It means Dale Moss doesn't end
- 1:54Speaker 2: up with anybody from Paradise, not shocked, but it would
- 1:59Speaker 2: be in if they do become the next Bachelor. I
- 2:02Speaker 2: would I would say I would be more interested in
- 2:07Speaker 2: somebody that we don't know from the franchise.
- 2:10Speaker 4: Well, no, I think we needed to be somebody we
- 2:13Speaker 4: really know. Now, Jason makes a lot of sense to me,
- 2:16Speaker 4: and a lot of women are going to want it
- 2:18Speaker 4: to be Jason, And do I think that he could
- 2:20Speaker 4: carry the show. Absolutely sure. I can't really even think
- 2:26Speaker 4: of somebody else that is single and so prevalent as
- 2:29Speaker 4: such a prevalent alum. Can you can you can be
- 2:32Speaker 4: throw out a name. I can't Heather producer Heather. Is
- 2:37Speaker 4: there anyone else that is up to par with.
- 2:41Speaker 2: I think it's going to be Jason. I'll put my
- 2:43Speaker 2: money on now. I think Jason Tartik will be our
- 2:45Speaker 2: next Bachelor.
- 2:46Speaker 4: We didn't have a Bachelorette season, so they're not going
- 2:48Speaker 4: to choose from a Bachelorette season.
- 2:50Speaker 3: Gen's cast was full of.
- 2:52Speaker 4: We obviously are not picking from Gen's cast. We would
- 2:54Speaker 4: be going back in time to pick one. They are
- 2:58Speaker 4: apparently actively casting right now. But I do think it
- 3:01Speaker 4: would be a mistake if they picked someone random. Yeah,
- 3:05Speaker 4: I agree, really no, look what they did. They picked
- 3:07Speaker 4: someone random for Golden Bachelor, and that leads us into
- 3:12Speaker 4: our next headline.
- 3:14Speaker 3: Yeah, Jesse Palmer gives updates.
- 3:16Speaker 2: If you haven't heard, mel Owens came on a podcast
- 3:19Speaker 2: and said some things that people didn't enjoy. The headline
- 3:24Speaker 2: says Jesse Palmer gives updates on the Bachelor franchise Season thirty,
- 3:29Speaker 2: Golden Star mel Owens.
- 3:32Speaker 4: Yeah, he said, I've seen the headlines obviously because I'm
- 3:34Speaker 4: on social media. I have not heard the podcast. The
- 3:36Speaker 4: podcast came out in early June, so we haven't started
- 3:40Speaker 4: filming Golden yet. Haven't spent a lot of time with
- 3:43Speaker 4: mel the short amount of time that I have spent
- 3:45Speaker 4: with him, he seems like a good guy. But I
- 3:47Speaker 4: know we're going to get to spend a lot of time,
- 3:50Speaker 4: a lot of more time with him pretty soon, and
- 3:52Speaker 4: I'm sure that's something we're going to talk about, So
- 3:55Speaker 4: that last sentence there, But I know I'm going to
- 3:57Speaker 4: get to spend a lot more time with him pretty
- 4:00Speaker 4: pretty soon, and those headlines are something we're going to
- 4:04Speaker 4: talk about. So if you guys aren't aware, early June
- 4:09Speaker 4: he did a random podcast. It wasn't a podcast in
- 4:12Speaker 4: which I know the name of, but he said on
- 4:14Speaker 4: it that he wants women from the ages of forty
- 4:18Speaker 4: five to sixty and that anybody above the age of
- 4:23Speaker 4: sixty would be getting cut early. Has was he not
- 4:28Speaker 4: informed that per the past two Golden seasons, the casting
- 4:33Speaker 4: starts at age sixty. There are no fifty somethings unless
- 4:37Speaker 4: you're Kelsey's dad, which they made a little bit of
- 4:39Speaker 4: an exception for he was fifty eight.
- 4:41Speaker 3: It's not starting out well.
- 4:43Speaker 2: I'll say this, My money is on mel Owens never
- 4:45Speaker 2: becoming our Golden Bachelor at this point.
- 4:47Speaker 4: As I think he shouldn't be. I think they I
- 4:50Speaker 4: think Jesse was being really pc. He probably didn't really
- 4:53Speaker 4: know what was going on at the time of this interview.
- 4:56Speaker 4: But like, if they make this guy the Golden Bachelor
- 5:00Speaker 4: after this comment, there's really no coming back from this comment.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say I actually would have appreciated if
- 5:05Speaker 2: Jesse would have stood up for the Golden Show a
- 5:07Speaker 2: little bit more during this comment and said, no, sorry,
- 5:11Speaker 2: he's out. This show is about the Goldens finding love,
- 5:15Speaker 2: and it's not about who is the most attractive, or
- 5:19Speaker 2: who is the youngest or the best shape or whatever.
- 5:22Speaker 2: That's exactly what this show isn't about. This show is
- 5:24Speaker 2: about love stories, and it's about people as they get
- 5:28Speaker 2: into this season of life, finding love again or finding
- 5:31Speaker 2: love for the first time.
- 5:32Speaker 3: As and he's out, We're done.
- 5:34Speaker 2: I would have loved that because I think if they
- 5:37Speaker 2: continue with it, it's going to discredit the whole idea
- 5:40Speaker 2: of what this show is created to be. Anyways, my
- 5:43Speaker 2: opinion strong opinion. I'll put my stake in the ground
- 5:46Speaker 2: right now and be willing to change it if I
- 5:48Speaker 2: meet what mel owns. I'm like, oh no, you can't
- 5:50Speaker 2: do anybody other than this guy. But I think he
- 5:53Speaker 2: should be out.
- 5:54Speaker 4: I believe that they were supposed to start filming within
- 5:58Speaker 4: the July timeline.
- 6:00Speaker 2: Yep.
- 6:00Speaker 4: I think that that's what they're stressed about. He also
- 6:03Speaker 4: need to mention said I would like no fake hips
- 6:07Speaker 4: and no wigs. Lots of fans are putting his picture
- 6:12Speaker 4: next to Jonathan, you know, handsome Jonathan from jone season,
- 6:17Speaker 4: because when he was in the reunion show, he had
- 6:21Speaker 4: announced that he had a new girlfriend. Hey, and the
- 6:23Speaker 4: girlfriend have now split, so he is single.
- 6:26Speaker 3: Bring him in, Bring him in.
- 6:28Speaker 2: Big update here, switching gears a little bit to Katie Thurston.
- 6:32Speaker 2: We've talked a lot about the Katie Thurston story and
- 6:34Speaker 2: her getting diagnosed with breast cancer. We've had her on
- 6:37Speaker 2: the show to talk about this diagnosis and it's been
- 6:41Speaker 2: kind of quiet. But Katie Thurston shares that breast cancer
- 6:47Speaker 2: tumors are shrinking in new posts.
- 6:50Speaker 4: Yeah, we're so excited, We're so so happy. The reason
- 6:53Speaker 4: that Katie hasn't really been giving updates is well. She's
- 6:56Speaker 4: been giving updates on her booby broadcast on Instagram all
- 6:58Speaker 4: the time, but like headline wise, it's because she's been
- 7:03Speaker 4: doing treatment, but she hasn't known yet whether or not
- 7:06Speaker 4: the treatment was working. And she got her three month
- 7:09Speaker 4: scan this week, and we are so excited to again
- 7:13Speaker 4: say that her tumors are shrinking. Even the one that
- 7:16Speaker 4: was on her liver, it can barely be detected in
- 7:19Speaker 4: the scan now, so that is absolutely fantastic news. We're
- 7:22Speaker 4: so happy. She wrote that this is amazing news. I'm
- 7:25Speaker 4: so relieved. People don't people don't realize as it stands
- 7:28Speaker 4: right now, I'll be on a treatment plan for life.
- 7:31Speaker 4: There isn't a cure for breast cancer, you know, at
- 7:33Speaker 4: stage four, but as long as funding for medical research continues,
- 7:38Speaker 4: especially for met survivor meta vivors, I'm assuming that means
- 7:45Speaker 4: fantastasized survivors, then there's a chance at continuing a long,
- 7:53Speaker 4: healthy life. Yay.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Three more headlines for you all that we're going to
- 8:09Speaker 2: kind of run through, But the first one is one
- 8:11Speaker 2: that we want us to spend a little time on
- 8:12Speaker 2: and say congratulations. Peter Cross. He just came on our
- 8:16Speaker 2: show a few weeks ago kind of dropped the bomb
- 8:19Speaker 2: that within the next year this would happen. But Peter
- 8:23Speaker 2: Crause is engaged to his girlfriend Hannah after one year
- 8:27Speaker 2: of dating.
- 8:28Speaker 4: We are also so thrilled about this. The pictures stunning, stunning,
- 8:34Speaker 4: a big American flag in the background, sunset on a
- 8:37Speaker 4: lake out in Wisconsin where he lives and she now lives.
- 8:45Speaker 4: He told us on the podcast a couple months ago, yes,
- 8:47Speaker 4: that the engagement would be coming. I don't think that
- 8:51Speaker 4: it's a surprise that it came this soon. He basically
- 8:54Speaker 4: seemed like he had the ring in his pocket at
- 8:56Speaker 4: the time that he was talking to us. So happy
- 8:59Speaker 4: for them. You should definitely go check out these pictures.
- 9:01Speaker 4: They are stunning.
- 9:03Speaker 2: They are and this isn't a shock to our show
- 9:06Speaker 2: because he did drop it. So go back and listen
- 9:08Speaker 2: to it. You get a good sense of the love
- 9:10Speaker 2: that they share. Claire Crawley details husband Ryan's scary bike's
- 9:14Speaker 2: bike accident and reveals how he's doing.
- 9:19Speaker 4: So he got in this accident, she was in the
- 9:24Speaker 4: emergency room with him and said, not on our weekend
- 9:26Speaker 4: bucket list, but here we are. He was out cycling
- 9:30Speaker 4: and on his way up to meet us somewhere. He
- 9:33Speaker 4: was about two minutes away and an suv sideswiped him
- 9:36Speaker 4: and he was going fast and he crashed his bike
- 9:39Speaker 4: and these guys didn't even go stop and help him.
- 9:42Speaker 4: They just kept driving along. That is nuts. She showed
- 9:46Speaker 4: a picture of a broken headphone that he was wearing
- 9:48Speaker 4: at the time and said, bless helmets. This could have
- 9:51Speaker 4: been so much worse. He's now home and Okay, thank god,
- 9:55Speaker 4: we're gonna be hurting, and like he's gonna be hurting
- 9:57Speaker 4: for a bit. His ribs are a little bit jacked,
- 9:59Speaker 4: ub he's got road rash, but so grateful that it
- 10:02Speaker 4: wasn't worse.
- 10:03Speaker 2: Very grateful. Final headlines is this. There's rumors buzzing around.
- 10:09Speaker 2: It isn't confirmed by any means, but there are rumors
- 10:13Speaker 2: going around that Gabby Wendy might be hosting Alex Cooper's
- 10:18Speaker 2: from Call Her Daddy's new dating show she's producing, and
- 10:23Speaker 2: the speculation comes from a front of ours.
- 10:26Speaker 4: Yes, Zachary Reality says that this new show that they're
- 10:30Speaker 4: filming I believe they started filming last month on for
- 10:33Speaker 4: Hulu is a unique dating show. The working title is
- 10:37Speaker 4: called Overboard for Love, and I know that there are
- 10:42Speaker 4: some of our friends that are working on this show.
- 10:45Speaker 4: Then our friends are working on the show, not just
- 10:48Speaker 4: reporting on the show, and it would make sense for
- 10:52Speaker 4: them to cast Gabby, who they worked with alongside on Bachelorette. Now,
- 11:01Speaker 4: the reason that people are putting two and two together
- 11:04Speaker 4: here is that the show was recently filmed on a
- 11:06Speaker 4: yacht in Malta. And where has Gabby recently been? Seems
- 11:09Speaker 4: like she might be in Malta. Yes, so that seems
- 11:14Speaker 4: I would say this makes a lot of sense there.
- 11:16Speaker 3: I wouldn't be shocked. It's a good fit.
- 11:19Speaker 4: No, it's also about singles mixing. There's a twist where
- 11:22Speaker 4: they're like have to play a game, so it's kind
- 11:25Speaker 4: of like Bachelor and gameplay from Traders together.
- 11:28Speaker 2: Let's see if we're the breaking news now, the second
- 11:31Speaker 2: news source to make this happen. I'll say right now,
- 11:35Speaker 2: if she is the host, I want Almost Famous to
- 11:38Speaker 2: also get some type of credit for breaking this news,
- 11:41Speaker 2: along with Zachary Reality because we're friends with shared I.
- 11:47Speaker 4: Guess my question would be the it's if it's Alex
- 11:49Speaker 4: Cooper's show, why isn't Alex Cooper just hosting it though, right,
- 11:53Speaker 4: so would Gabby just be like a side host.
- 11:56Speaker 2: I don't think Alex Cooper is doing much hosting. I
- 11:59Speaker 2: think she is simply producing this show. Okay, it is
- 12:03Speaker 2: going underneath her brand. Okay, that continues to be huge. Hey,
- 12:09Speaker 2: this is the Almost Famous podcast. We're happy to be
- 12:11Speaker 2: talking today. Ask the headlines we have. Congratulations once again
- 12:14Speaker 2: to Peter Krause. Also to Katie Thurston on the recent news.
- 12:19Speaker 2: There's obviously some big headlines coming your way. They never
- 12:22Speaker 2: stop and moving back next week breaking down more headlines.
- 12:25Speaker 3: But until next time, I've been.
- 12:26Speaker 4: Then I've been, Ashley, Love you bye.
