Speaker 1: We do like an adult Easter egg hunt, and we
0:53
Speaker 1: got to do our first Easter egg hunt for Dawson
0:55
Speaker 1: this year, which is really exciting. He was getting it
1:00
Speaker 1: at first, but then he really started rolling with it,
1:02
Speaker 1: which is pretty awesome, really really adorable. Yea, So we're
1:06
Speaker 1: just spending the week here. We haven't been here since
1:09
Speaker 1: the end of January, and in kid time and infant
1:12
Speaker 1: toddler time, that's a long time. My mom has seen
1:16
Speaker 1: Dawson since, but my dad hasn't seen him since January.
1:18
Speaker 1: So oh wow, Yeah, that's exciting. What a time. I
1:23
Speaker 1: hope the holidays was something special. It is. It was.
1:27
Speaker 1: It is an incredible time to be alive. It's a
1:31
Speaker 1: lot of fun. I got to see a lot of kids.
1:33
Speaker 1: I went out to the golf course for a few
1:35
Speaker 1: hours that day. I got to see a lot of
1:36
Speaker 1: kids kind of running around the golf course. Jessica and
1:39
Speaker 1: I had an amazing dinner that evening together. It's weird
1:44
Speaker 1: celebrating the holidays without family, but it is also very special.
1:49
Speaker 1: I got to spend it with my wife and just
1:51
Speaker 1: the two of us, and at all it is nice.
1:55
Speaker 1: Today Dawson got to meet some real bunnies at the zoo.
1:58
Speaker 1: We went to like this a small little zoo, okay
2:01
Speaker 1: by my parents asked, like ten minutes away. They've got
2:05
Speaker 1: a few monkeys, and they've got your farm animals bunnies.
2:08
Speaker 1: And then we had to get we we've had a
2:11
Speaker 1: private meeting with a baby kangaroo. Let's go. Yeah, that's awesome,
2:18
Speaker 1: that's incredible, that's fun. I mean, these memories for you
2:22
Speaker 1: have to be special. Right, I mean just this season
2:25
Speaker 1: of life where Dawson is seeing things for the first time.
2:29
Speaker 1: There's a curiosity, there's a confusion, maybe like this has
2:33
Speaker 1: to be a really cool season of life. It is.
2:36
Speaker 1: When we were in the room with the kangaroo, it's like, funny,
2:38
Speaker 1: you know, he's fourteen months. He has no idea that
2:40
Speaker 1: it's a rare thing to be in a room alone
2:43
Speaker 1: with the kangaroo. He's like, oh, maybe this is just
2:45
Speaker 1: what we do. Sometimes it's like, how is this any
2:48
Speaker 1: different than lois? That's good, that's so good. Well, today's
2:53
Speaker 1: my first day of feeling better. I've been sick since
2:56
Speaker 1: my Columbia trip, and so I hope my voice sounds
3:00
Speaker 1: less scratchy, less stuffed. Today I woke up and I said,
3:05
Speaker 1: I feel good, And so I am working around the
3:08
Speaker 1: house making sure this place is is ready to go
3:11
Speaker 1: because it's spring cleaning, spring cleaning, spring cleaning time. It's
3:15
Speaker 1: a big time in my life. This is one of
3:16
Speaker 1: my favorite time has really sprung early. I'm a month
3:20
Speaker 1: away from starting my garden. You know how exciting that
3:22
Speaker 1: makes me? Is your garden food or is it flowers?
3:27
Speaker 1: It's it's not the modern like new age, garden of flowers. No,
3:31
Speaker 1: this is food. This is stuff we will eat, we
3:33
Speaker 1: will consume. I'm very proud of my peppers and my
3:36
Speaker 1: tomatoes and my carrots. I take a lot of pride
3:41
Speaker 1: in them. So what a time to be alive. But
3:44
Speaker 1: it is also a big time for the Bachelor. There's
3:48
Speaker 1: a lot of headlines today that we have to break
3:51
Speaker 1: down Ashley, let's dive into them again. I want to
3:54
Speaker 1: remind you that Ashley is going to be spending some
3:57
Speaker 1: time with Gabby this week. That episode's going to be
4:00
Speaker 1: posted on our thread as well. It's going to be
4:02
Speaker 1: a really incredible episode. Gabby hasn't done a ton of
4:05
Speaker 1: interviews yet. I know she sat down with Caitlin. She
4:08
Speaker 1: wants to sit down with Ashley. I think it's gonna
4:10
Speaker 1: be an interview that I am very intrigued by, and
4:15
Speaker 1: so make sure you tune in to listen to that.
4:16
Speaker 1: But today and DM me your questions for her, if
4:19
Speaker 1: you have something that she hasn't discussed yet. Okay, that's good, Yeah,
4:23
Speaker 1: because those all the fans always have questions that maybe
4:25
Speaker 1: you and I wouldn't think of, Like they they're curious
4:28
Speaker 1: about of great things. And so if you haven't heard
4:32
Speaker 1: Gabby speak to something. Yes, please DM Ashley. She will
4:35
Speaker 1: make sure to get to those. Ashley. We do have
4:38
Speaker 1: a lot of headlines. Let's dive into it right now.
4:40
Speaker 1: Bachelor lum Teddy Wright. You remember Teddy. She was a
4:44
Speaker 1: hit on the beach this year, ended up believing earlier
4:48
Speaker 1: than expected. I would say, kind of out of nowhere.
4:53
Speaker 1: Just maybe wasn't feeling it well. Now we maybe have
4:56
Speaker 1: a little bit of an idea where her life was
4:59
Speaker 1: headed because she's in gaged to boyfriend Nicholas. The quota
5:02
Speaker 1: is still feels like a dream. Yeah, it's happened pretty fast.
5:08
Speaker 1: She got on Instagram on New Year's Evish and she said, like,
5:14
Speaker 1: this is my first New Year's kiss and she's very excited.
5:16
Speaker 1: That was kind of like her soft launch with her boyfriend.
5:21
Speaker 1: And they've been what she says is private but not secret.
5:27
Speaker 1: They've he's not really a social media guy. He hasn't
5:30
Speaker 1: been on social media, he doesn't have his own So
5:33
Speaker 1: she says that she's trying to get him on camera more,
5:35
Speaker 1: but she wants to protect their relationship, especially in the
5:38
Speaker 1: beginning of it all. But now we can say that
5:40
Speaker 1: it is serious enough that they are engaged, and she
5:44
Speaker 1: says she's been crying for days since it happened. Still
5:48
Speaker 1: feels like a dream, as you said, She said, So
5:51
Speaker 1: this is love dot dot dot with the ring in
5:54
Speaker 1: the heart. That was the opening line of her engagement post.
5:57
Speaker 1: She says, I am engaged and feels so blessed. I
6:00
Speaker 1: get to spend forever with my best friend. She also said,
6:04
Speaker 1: can we just take a moment or can we just
6:08
Speaker 1: take a moment for how good my fiance Oh my god,
6:12
Speaker 1: you know, oh my god, fiance did on this ring.
6:16
Speaker 1: It was it's a Gene Ducette ring. She said, she
6:19
Speaker 1: feels like the luckiest girl in the world. Now let's
6:22
Speaker 1: get married. She says it's going to be a short engagement.
6:27
Speaker 1: This has just kind of been like a it's all
6:30
Speaker 1: kind of on a shorter time span. But it seems
6:33
Speaker 1: like she really knows. And then her batch friends Susie Evans,
6:38
Speaker 1: she quit. She commented, oh my god, chill, so happy
6:42
Speaker 1: for you. Also said, so deserving of all the love
6:46
Speaker 1: and happiness, Send you so much love. Michael Alio said, congrats, Teddy,
6:51
Speaker 1: So happy for you. Happiness, It's good on you. Serene Russell,
6:55
Speaker 1: she said, so so happy, you find a kind of
6:57
Speaker 1: love you deserve. I am sobbing. So now we know
7:02
Speaker 1: really why? Well, you know, we don't know. Perhaps Paradise.
7:06
Speaker 1: We don't know what's up. We don't we don't know anything.
7:09
Speaker 1: We know that Paradise wasn't right. It wasn't the place
7:11
Speaker 1: that Teddy was supposed to find her person. She has
7:15
Speaker 1: found her person in her boyfriend Nicholas, and it's all happening.
7:21
Speaker 1: It's super awesome, great for Teddy, super excited for her. Now.
7:26
Speaker 1: Maybe the biggest headline of the week they in terms
7:29
Speaker 1: of just fan reaction so far, is Tasia Adams holds
7:36
Speaker 1: hands with Summer House star Luke Golbranson a mid dating room. Yes,
7:45
Speaker 1: so I have to preface that by saying I've never
7:48
Speaker 1: watched Summer House before. I don't know Luke beyond some
7:52
Speaker 1: Instagram pictures and headlines. But it is a big deal
7:56
Speaker 1: that the two of them have been rumored to be
7:57
Speaker 1: seeing each other for a couple of weeks now. One
8:00
Speaker 1: of all of our favorite gospipl accounts, Dumois, had a
8:04
Speaker 1: tip that the two of them were seen at a
8:06
Speaker 1: bar after going to New York Rangers game on March
8:09
Speaker 1: twenty first, it's kind of what started it all, and
8:14
Speaker 1: now they have been seeing Easter weekend. So what happened
8:18
Speaker 1: how it's kind of like launched but maybe not maybe
8:22
Speaker 1: not intentionally launched, is that one of the Summerhouse stars,
8:29
Speaker 1: her name is Lindsay Hubbard. Over the weekend she posted
8:33
Speaker 1: a picture and the caption was Easter at hashtag rad House.
8:37
Speaker 1: And in the picture, Tasia and Luke are holding hands
8:42
Speaker 1: off on the side. They're like the ones on the end,
8:45
Speaker 1: and the whole handhold it's even like a little bit sly.
8:48
Speaker 1: It's not even like the most handholding. It's kind of
8:51
Speaker 1: like right there by her pocket. And the caption said, again,
8:55
Speaker 1: like I said, Easter at at rad House. But then
8:57
Speaker 1: it says and then we river dance, salsa dance and
9:01
Speaker 1: dirty danced. But then soon after the comments are filling up,
9:08
Speaker 1: says just a casual hard launch of Tasia and Luke
9:11
Speaker 1: with like eyes emojis. Somebody goes, we see the handhold.
9:15
Speaker 1: Another person goes, Lindsay breaking the internet bright and early
9:19
Speaker 1: to start the week Another person said, came to Radhouse
9:22
Speaker 1: staying for the Tatia Luke of it all. Okay, so
9:25
Speaker 1: everybody's going crazy in the comments section, and then before
9:29
Speaker 1: you know it, the people the picture's gone and she
9:36
Speaker 1: reposts the picture, which is shocking. She reposts the picture
9:40
Speaker 1: with the two of them cropped out of the end,
9:44
Speaker 1: and then the caption is different, and it's even more like,
9:49
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, like something just happened. It's even more
9:54
Speaker 1: blaring that the two of them don't want that out
9:56
Speaker 1: there because she captions it, well, this is awkward. With
10:00
Speaker 1: the two of them out of it. They would have
10:03
Speaker 1: been I could have imagined them being more annoyed at
10:06
Speaker 1: that than just the two of them kind of looking
10:10
Speaker 1: like they were holding hands in the original picture. Yeah,
10:13
Speaker 1: I mean, I think at this point there is probably
10:15
Speaker 1: a conversation, don't you think. Don't you think Tasia probably said, hey,
10:20
Speaker 1: but again, they're taking a picture and they're holding hands,
10:23
Speaker 1: like they have to expect this to get out there.
10:25
Speaker 1: You know, they would be a little more careful when
10:27
Speaker 1: it comes to who's taking the picture and how they're
10:30
Speaker 1: taking the picture. So I don't necessarily understand how anybody
10:37
Speaker 1: could be upset that this picture was posted because this
10:40
Speaker 1: was the way that you took the picture. You know,
10:43
Speaker 1: there was never that they wanted to hard launch themselves.
10:46
Speaker 1: Oh sure they did. They wouldn't probably do it on
10:47
Speaker 1: their own social media. They'll still get the chance to
10:49
Speaker 1: do that. They'll be fine. Yeah, but you know, unless
10:53
Speaker 1: there was some conversation before this picture is taken where
10:59
Speaker 1: Tasha or Luke had said, please don't post this picture,
11:03
Speaker 1: which again would be weird because it's like, Okay, if
11:05
Speaker 1: you don't want this picture posted, don't take the picture
11:07
Speaker 1: holding hands, just stand by each other something like. Make
11:10
Speaker 1: it still a rumor. But they held hands. The picture
11:13
Speaker 1: is then posted. Ashley, what do you think of this?
11:16
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we haven't heard a ton from
11:18
Speaker 1: Tasha here as of recent you know, we don't know
11:22
Speaker 1: necessarily her dating life. She still has a social media presence.
11:28
Speaker 1: But we got to be happy for I mean, you know,
11:31
Speaker 1: she's now been off the show for how long. This
11:33
Speaker 1: feels like something that's been going on for a little
11:36
Speaker 1: bit of time. I'm excited for Tasha. I liked Taisha. Yeah,
11:41
Speaker 1: she and Zach broke up in November twenty twenty one,
11:44
Speaker 1: so it has been a while, and this is the
11:46
Speaker 1: first time we've really seen her pictured with somebody that
11:51
Speaker 1: she might be dating. I think there have been like
11:52
Speaker 1: little swirls are in there of their guys, but this
11:55
Speaker 1: is like a little bit more tangible, and I understand
12:01
Speaker 1: that maybe they wouldn't want to be public if they're
12:04
Speaker 1: just starting to date, especially if it's gonna be like
12:07
Speaker 1: a public relationship. You know, you've got two reality stars together.
12:11
Speaker 1: You want to make sure it's really a thing before
12:14
Speaker 1: it becomes a thing, you know what I mean amongst
12:17
Speaker 1: the fandoms. And we know that they couldn't have been
12:22
Speaker 1: dating too long because he was actually dating another reality star.
12:26
Speaker 1: Her name is Ashley Derby. She's from The Real Housewives epotomac.
12:30
Speaker 1: They were only together for three months, but they did
12:32
Speaker 1: break up in January. Well again, I mean, I have
12:38
Speaker 1: nothing negative to say about this. I'm very excited for it.
12:41
Speaker 1: But if you don't want it to get out there,
12:43
Speaker 1: then don't take a picture with a bunch of people
12:45
Speaker 1: that have social media's who were only ever posting pictures
12:49
Speaker 1: holding hands like if you know, if you want to
12:52
Speaker 1: be more careful, then you should not have done that. Now.
12:57
Speaker 1: I hope now they're happy. I hope now they can
12:59
Speaker 1: celebrate the fact that they are public and maybe we'll
13:03
Speaker 1: get it'll probably pushed him to become public faster than expected.
13:07
Speaker 1: So there you go. I think we can probably at
13:11
Speaker 1: this point start to soft launch that this couple is
13:14
Speaker 1: actually a thing. Well, as I mentioned at the beginning
13:28
Speaker 1: of the episode, Gabby is going to be coming here
13:30
Speaker 1: on the Almost Famous podcast and having an in depth
13:33
Speaker 1: with Ashley. There's a little headline about Gabby that I
13:37
Speaker 1: really want to save this conversation for your episode, Ashley,
13:43
Speaker 1: but we will at least hint at it. The headline
13:47
Speaker 1: is this Bachelor's Gabby is still getting over the finale.
13:50
Speaker 1: The quote is that I really am excited to hear
13:53
Speaker 1: you dig into with her is She says, I still
13:56
Speaker 1: feel violated, which I understand by Zach. Yeah, she just
14:01
Speaker 1: feels violent, she says, by the way that it all ended.
14:06
Speaker 1: She goes she knows she doesn't want to like hold
14:09
Speaker 1: hate toward him or the anger resentment. She wants to
14:13
Speaker 1: let that go at some point, she says, but this
14:16
Speaker 1: point she does still feel violated. She thinks it's difficult
14:21
Speaker 1: because she needs to, you know, juggle her relationship or
14:26
Speaker 1: friendship with Katie and the feelings that she has. She
14:32
Speaker 1: says that she thinks she's over Zach, but then she
14:36
Speaker 1: also admits that maybe I don't know, maybe I'm not
14:38
Speaker 1: over him. Maybe I'm just saying that. She says she's
14:41
Speaker 1: not over the violation. So she felt at the end
14:43
Speaker 1: of the show, and she said there's so many questions
14:45
Speaker 1: that she wishes like she can get answers to that
14:49
Speaker 1: normal people might be able to after a breakup through
14:52
Speaker 1: you know, just like the random tags her phone call
14:55
Speaker 1: or Instagram DM or something that like pops up after
14:58
Speaker 1: you break up with someone, but you do it through
15:01
Speaker 1: the Bachelor. It's not traditional like that. So she just
15:05
Speaker 1: says that she hopes that she's able to keep her
15:08
Speaker 1: friendship with Katie healthy while also just dealing with the
15:12
Speaker 1: fact that she doesn't get classic closure. Yeah, it's it's
15:17
Speaker 1: gonna be an interesting article or interview, Ashley. You and her,
15:21
Speaker 1: I feel like there's a lot of still raw emotion,
15:23
Speaker 1: and she has stayed fairly quiet since the show. And
15:26
Speaker 1: I understand that this was I think a unique scenario.
15:31
Speaker 1: I just did an interview with US Weekly yesterday kind
15:33
Speaker 1: of talking about this. It was a unique scenario for
15:36
Speaker 1: the Bachelor because I feel like Zach and Katie kind
15:39
Speaker 1: of moved on right they did the interviews, they went
15:41
Speaker 1: off into the Sunset happy together. I know Katie and
15:44
Speaker 1: Gabby are good friends, and Gabby is the one that's
15:46
Speaker 1: kind of left behind at the end, being like wait,
15:48
Speaker 1: what just happened? Like, you know, I not only got
15:51
Speaker 1: broken up with, but now I've probably had to confront
15:55
Speaker 1: the fact that Zach and I slept together way more,
16:00
Speaker 1: many more times than I wanted to. And it's a
16:03
Speaker 1: weird conversation to have not only with friends and family,
16:06
Speaker 1: but in interviews, like that's what people are talking about.
16:08
Speaker 1: And I think the most interesting thing here it's not
16:11
Speaker 1: that they did that, Like that's not shocking, right, I
16:14
Speaker 1: mean it's a little shocking because Zach said, Hey, we
16:16
Speaker 1: aren't going to do this, and then he did. It's
16:18
Speaker 1: how does she feel? Like? How like how is she
16:21
Speaker 1: doing with this? Because it is something that she wasn't
16:24
Speaker 1: expecting to become public and it is something that she
16:27
Speaker 1: wasn't expecting to be the storyline. Yeah, I'll definitely talk
16:32
Speaker 1: to her, of course about that on Thursday, And I
16:35
Speaker 1: also want to talk to her about how she said
16:41
Speaker 1: in this previous interview that she knows what she lived through,
16:46
Speaker 1: but watching the show back it makes her feel like,
16:50
Speaker 1: did what I lived through? Was the truth and situation
16:52
Speaker 1: or was something cut out of it or was something
16:55
Speaker 1: added to it? Yeah, she says, like it's hard because
16:57
Speaker 1: you can't distinguish like TV from reality right now. Oooh yeah,
17:02
Speaker 1: a lot to dig into with Gabby. It's going to
17:04
Speaker 1: be a great interview. Make sure you tune into it. Everybody.
17:07
Speaker 1: Next headline is Bachelor Nations. Caitlin Bristow recalls feeling used
17:12
Speaker 1: towards end of relationship with Sean Booth. Yes, she was
17:17
Speaker 1: on Jason's podcast. It's a two parter of Trading Secrets,
17:21
Speaker 1: and she talks about how he was getting Booth Camp
17:25
Speaker 1: all set up to launch in Nashville in June of
17:28
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. They end up breaking up in the fall
17:31
Speaker 1: of twenty eighteen, but she said it was getting down
17:35
Speaker 1: to the end where we both just didn't see it
17:37
Speaker 1: going anywhere. But I felt like he was hanging on
17:39
Speaker 1: until his gym opened, and that's where I felt used,
17:42
Speaker 1: said she felt used professionally, that's all we really see.
17:46
Speaker 1: If you can go back, that's all we really here
17:49
Speaker 1: directly from Caitlin on this. But if you go back,
17:52
Speaker 1: you know, you can look at the instagrams and all
17:54
Speaker 1: that and see Caitlyn promoting Booth Camp and all of that,
17:58
Speaker 1: and of course she's going to do it, especially like
18:00
Speaker 1: publicly when she's still in a relationship with somebody. Yeah,
18:03
Speaker 1: you know, the Sean Booth scenario was we had Sean
18:07
Speaker 1: Booth on the podcast following that relationship. Remember that. Yep,
18:12
Speaker 1: it was very emotional. I feel like that relationship was
18:17
Speaker 1: like really good until it wasn't, don't you think Then
18:19
Speaker 1: you get that feeling like it was really good and
18:21
Speaker 1: then it just like all of a sudden kind of
18:24
Speaker 1: was done. Yeah, well, Sean. You know, have a quote
18:28
Speaker 1: from Sean talking about his relationship in Hindsight, and he
18:31
Speaker 1: said that, like they were really good at having fun
18:34
Speaker 1: together and putting out there to the world that they
18:37
Speaker 1: were having fun together, but being in love and doing
18:39
Speaker 1: the whole love thing. We weren't good at doing that
18:43
Speaker 1: behind closed doors. Okay, that makes sense. They were such
18:48
Speaker 1: a big person seem good, That's what I mean. Even
18:53
Speaker 1: I'm able to kind of cut that relationship as to
18:56
Speaker 1: like what I know from Caitlin and then like what
18:58
Speaker 1: I saw in the public eye because I almost watched
19:03
Speaker 1: that relationship like a fan, because I didn't get to
19:07
Speaker 1: talk to Kaitlin at all getting off our season, then
19:10
Speaker 1: she just goes right into her Bachelor season, and then
19:13
Speaker 1: I'm watching your Guys' season unfold, and it felt like
19:17
Speaker 1: I was a fan of the show again and I
19:19
Speaker 1: got really invested just as a viewer and just seeing
19:24
Speaker 1: them on social media, them being one of the most
19:27
Speaker 1: one of the first I think, like the first big
19:31
Speaker 1: social media couple from the show, and them always being
19:36
Speaker 1: so funny and cute and affectionate. It did kind of
19:44
Speaker 1: they did. As Sean said, this really put a vibe
19:46
Speaker 1: out there that they had a blast together and it
19:49
Speaker 1: was kind of like hashtag relationship goals, right what it
19:54
Speaker 1: seemed to be. Yeah, that's hard to do too though,
19:57
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, relationships are fun. I would say
20:00
Speaker 1: have a blast in my relationship, but it's not always
20:02
Speaker 1: just like doing wild things, and like you know, it's
20:06
Speaker 1: some if you're putting on a show for the public,
20:09
Speaker 1: I think at some point that would get exhausting and
20:11
Speaker 1: it probably is unhealthy. Well, it's it's also interesting that
20:16
Speaker 1: she sat down with Jason on the podcast and explained
20:19
Speaker 1: all of this. It shows where their relationship is at.
20:21
Speaker 1: There's an openness and there's an honesty and there's a
20:24
Speaker 1: trust there. So Rappy Caitlin and Jason. I think this
20:28
Speaker 1: came up because it's a business podcast. Sure you know
20:31
Speaker 1: this didn't just come up because they're talking about past relationships.
20:34
Speaker 1: She was talking about being involved in his business. Yeah,
20:38
Speaker 1: that's fair, that makes sense. Well, make sure you go
20:40
Speaker 1: listen to that to get more info. Another headline is
20:44
Speaker 1: someone from the twentieth season of The Bachelor, which I
20:48
Speaker 1: just happened to be a part of. Somebody that's awesome.
20:51
Speaker 1: Jen Saviano. Well, Jen Saviano gets emotional celebrating son Wilder's
20:57
Speaker 1: first birthday. The quote is no where. Oh yeah. She
21:02
Speaker 1: put up an awesome Instagram reel of Wilder's growth over
21:07
Speaker 1: the year, and it's been fun to watch his growth
21:10
Speaker 1: as he's only two and a half months younger than Dawson.
21:14
Speaker 1: So we go back and forth on DM, is he
21:17
Speaker 1: doing this, does he love this? Blah blah blah, and
21:20
Speaker 1: the kid is so cute walking before Dawson. Dawson has
21:24
Speaker 1: no desire to walk. All these Bachelor babies born before
21:28
Speaker 1: him and after him, they're all walking, and he's just like, yeah,
21:31
Speaker 1: you know what, I like to crawl. Yeah, but Wilder
21:34
Speaker 1: is adorable and he looked so good in his Easter outfit.
21:37
Speaker 1: He had a little button down with the bow tie.
21:40
Speaker 1: So he's he's living his life. Little Instagram star there.
21:45
Speaker 1: He is super fun to watch that go on. It's
21:48
Speaker 1: really cool to see life progress for all these incredible
21:52
Speaker 1: people and having kids and getting married. It's really awesome. Well,
21:57
Speaker 1: Bachelor at Rachel offers advice for charity as bachelorette and
22:01
Speaker 1: share scary flying story. I have one for my season
22:05
Speaker 1: to The Bachelor that was never showed. But we uh,
22:10
Speaker 1: let's talk about Rachel's first Okay, we'll talk about Rachel's first.
22:13
Speaker 1: First off, her advice or charity is simple and not
22:17
Speaker 1: the best advice. She goes, just do the opposite of
22:21
Speaker 1: what I did and you'll be golden. Oh come on.
22:24
Speaker 1: But in all seriousness, and she says, you know, I'm
22:27
Speaker 1: so excited for charity. She did not do it. What
22:32
Speaker 1: do you mean, Rachel, You did a great job. There's
22:35
Speaker 1: nothing you didn't do. The thing you did wrong. I
22:37
Speaker 1: thought she was a great bachelrette. Yeah. I really enjoyed
22:41
Speaker 1: that season. I really like her personality, really rooting for
22:44
Speaker 1: her in real life. I think that she's going to
22:46
Speaker 1: find someone very easily. And then she also talks you know,
22:51
Speaker 1: as you said, scary flying story, and we get to
22:54
Speaker 1: know more in this article about her flying experience because
22:57
Speaker 1: we all know she's pilot Rachel, but I'm like, oh,
23:01
Speaker 1: you know, and so many of these occupations on the Bachelor,
23:06
Speaker 1: they're a little bit exaggerated. But she is a real pilot, guys.
23:11
Speaker 1: She teaches. She teaches pilot lessons. She said. She spent
23:15
Speaker 1: hours making and reviewing lesson plans, and each students learns differently.
23:22
Speaker 1: We all make we allow them to make make mistakes,
23:25
Speaker 1: which can be difficult for her, as she says, but
23:28
Speaker 1: I've become a much better pilot from teaching, and it's
23:32
Speaker 1: just a stepping stone for what she wants to do,
23:34
Speaker 1: which is work for the airlines. She said. One of
23:37
Speaker 1: the scariest experiences she had flying was when she was
23:44
Speaker 1: in the plane by herself for six hours. She was
23:48
Speaker 1: getting her commercial license, and she thought she had a
23:51
Speaker 1: I don't know what this is an RPM gage failure,
23:55
Speaker 1: which at the time, while she was up in the air,
23:58
Speaker 1: she thought was her engine failing. So she said she
24:04
Speaker 1: kissed the ground as soon as she landed back home safely.
24:08
Speaker 1: I yeah, Yeah, that's that's so scary. Well mine was not.
24:10
Speaker 1: I mean hers was like hers was She's like up
24:13
Speaker 1: in the air, her engines failing. Yeah, that would freak
24:18
Speaker 1: me out, right. Mine was just in Las Vegas. We
24:21
Speaker 1: were up in a helicopter, Joe, Joe and I and
24:24
Speaker 1: there was a lightning storm and lightning was hitting all
24:26
Speaker 1: around us, and we had to make an emergency landing,
24:29
Speaker 1: um because the helicopter was getting like within I mean
24:32
Speaker 1: it looked like inches from lightning bolts, but I think
24:35
Speaker 1: it was farther than that. But you could like like
24:38
Speaker 1: people were freaking out. Everybody was. They were freaking out
24:41
Speaker 1: in the pilot we had. We had to make an
24:44
Speaker 1: emergency landing, like we just pretty much like dropped down
24:47
Speaker 1: because it was so so close and so scary. It
24:50
Speaker 1: was weird. That is serious. Don't downplay that. It's very serious.
24:55
Speaker 1: Helicopters are dangerous. I thought she was gonna talk about
24:57
Speaker 1: Bachelor flying story, but obviously U hers is alone in
25:01
Speaker 1: a plane and it takes a lot of kahonas to
25:06
Speaker 1: be peaceful in that moment. I would love for Rache.
25:09
Speaker 1: It'll find me around Corney robertson Spills Uncensored behind the
25:23
Speaker 1: scenes Bachelor and Paradise tea interesting. Corney robertson, Yeah, this
25:28
Speaker 1: is really fun. So she was on a clickbait this
25:31
Speaker 1: week and she said that she thought about going on
25:35
Speaker 1: Paradise specifically, I think they wanted her for the first season,
25:39
Speaker 1: but she said that she was dating someone that she
25:41
Speaker 1: really liked at a time, and she remembers testing the
25:44
Speaker 1: waters and asking him what he would think if she
25:46
Speaker 1: did the show, and if you would have been like, yeah,
25:49
Speaker 1: go do it, then she would have been like, Okay,
25:51
Speaker 1: well bye then But at the end of the day,
25:54
Speaker 1: that wasn't the situation. She did end up dating him
25:56
Speaker 1: for a while, but she did say that in the
26:00
Speaker 1: midst of I guess I want to say, almost different
26:03
Speaker 1: Paradise seasons, Corney did end up meeting her husband and
26:08
Speaker 1: getting married and all that within the past I want
26:10
Speaker 1: to say five years, because I was with her in
26:13
Speaker 1: Vegas when she was still single with at an iHeart event,
26:15
Speaker 1: so it's probably about five years when she met him.
26:17
Speaker 1: But anyway, so she didn't end up going on Paradise,
26:20
Speaker 1: but lots of guys ended up sliding into her dms
26:23
Speaker 1: throughout the years to see if she was going, notably
26:27
Speaker 1: Chris Bukowski classic. We love Chris, but this is classic.
26:32
Speaker 1: So she said that he had come to her book
26:34
Speaker 1: launch in New York, so yeah, this is season one.
26:38
Speaker 1: She had already met him and they made out after
26:41
Speaker 1: that book launch at the party, and he messaged her
26:45
Speaker 1: saying he was going to Paradise and wanted to know
26:48
Speaker 1: if she was going to be doing the same. She said,
26:50
Speaker 1: Brooks Forrester also slid into her DMS. Said that some
26:55
Speaker 1: of the girls that she knew were also sliding into DMS,
27:00
Speaker 1: asking her if they were going, because she thinks that
27:03
Speaker 1: they were trying to stake their claims, trying to be like, hey,
27:07
Speaker 1: I don't want you going after this guy. The only
27:10
Speaker 1: guy that she thought, oh maybe I should really go
27:13
Speaker 1: on the show for was Graham Bunn. She knew he
27:16
Speaker 1: was doing that first season and she thought he was cute.
27:19
Speaker 1: They had played in a bachelor charity soccer league together,
27:23
Speaker 1: so they met a few times, and she remembers wondering
27:25
Speaker 1: if they would hit it off if they ended up
27:27
Speaker 1: going down there and spending time together. She said, but
27:30
Speaker 1: a girl who wanted to date him really badly reached
27:33
Speaker 1: out to me and said he's mine, yes, and then
27:38
Speaker 1: she said Claire and I were messaging about it. But
27:41
Speaker 1: she and Claire get along really great, and she thought
27:44
Speaker 1: that Claire was possibly interested in Graham too, but that
27:46
Speaker 1: seemed like something she was gonna have a respect she goes.
27:50
Speaker 1: But she did wonder if she went down and met him,
27:54
Speaker 1: what would happen. But then this is super interesting. The
27:57
Speaker 1: person that was really wondering how things would end up
28:00
Speaker 1: with her was Brooks, who flew out to California to
28:04
Speaker 1: meet her because he just wanted to make sure that
28:07
Speaker 1: he kind of like got the Courtney crush out of
28:10
Speaker 1: his system, so that he'd always had a crush on her,
28:14
Speaker 1: and he wanted to see if there was anything there.
28:16
Speaker 1: So I guess there wasn't anything strong enough there. I
28:20
Speaker 1: love how Courtney spill see you read her book. She's
28:23
Speaker 1: talks about celebrity stuff. Adrian Grenier to be the one
28:26
Speaker 1: that is most memorable for me. Oh Courtney, she is,
28:30
Speaker 1: She's good at it. She's good an interview. We love
28:32
Speaker 1: having her arm well. Two more headlines remaining. I just
28:36
Speaker 1: want to give a quick shout out here to Becca
28:37
Speaker 1: Tillian Haley. They celebrate their five year anniversary together. That's
28:41
Speaker 1: a big deal. The anniversary, they looked like they had
28:44
Speaker 1: the most amazing trip in Rome. Yeah, the cutest content.
28:47
Speaker 1: And I know that Haley is going on tour now
28:49
Speaker 1: and Becca would probably be at a lot of those
28:51
Speaker 1: store dates. And the final headline is this something that
28:56
Speaker 1: hit very close to home was actually it felt like
28:58
Speaker 1: a gift to our household. I know where you're going
29:05
Speaker 1: with this. Yeah, bachel Nations a man to stand and
29:07
Speaker 1: urges fans to stop asking if she's pregnant. People can't
29:10
Speaker 1: really be acting this way in twenty twenty three, she said.
29:12
Speaker 1: And the reason it hits close home is because Jessica
29:16
Speaker 1: gets very upset, you know. With Jessica has been very
29:19
Speaker 1: open about previous experiences with eating disorders and has really
29:25
Speaker 1: like fought hard to get her body healthy and to
29:27
Speaker 1: get her back up and going again. And when people
29:31
Speaker 1: do this, and they do it a lot more than
29:33
Speaker 1: I ever thought they would, it hits people in an
29:38
Speaker 1: odd way like you how do you respond one? And
29:40
Speaker 1: then what you know you read into it a lot
29:43
Speaker 1: and who who says that? And so the reminder when
29:47
Speaker 1: when this happened last week to Jessica that I gave
29:50
Speaker 1: her was Hey, people are just sometimes crazy and they
29:53
Speaker 1: don't mean what they're saying. They don't they're not hinting
29:56
Speaker 1: at anything about your body or how you look. They
30:00
Speaker 1: just say it to everybody at all times, no matter
30:03
Speaker 1: what the situation. It's just what they do and why.
30:05
Speaker 1: I can't tell you that. But there's no nothing to
30:09
Speaker 1: be read into here other than it's happening two more
30:12
Speaker 1: people than you expect. And I actually told her at
30:14
Speaker 1: the time she's very upset about this. I said, you
30:19
Speaker 1: should call Ashley or text Ashley and ask her if
30:21
Speaker 1: she ever gets these comments. And I guarantee you Ashley
30:24
Speaker 1: would say I sure do, even after Dawson. So yes,
30:29
Speaker 1: big for Amanda stand to say this. I message Amanda
30:31
Speaker 1: just said, thank you for doing this. If you're somebody
30:34
Speaker 1: out there who, like I don't know, has fun commenting
30:37
Speaker 1: I think you're pregnant, like you're you're a weirdo, stop
30:40
Speaker 1: doing it like it hurts people. And it's a very
30:42
Speaker 1: odd thing to say. I don't go up to random
30:44
Speaker 1: women on the streets and be like, you look pregnant. Well,
30:49
Speaker 1: you can tell Jess that. I think she could have
30:52
Speaker 1: the Philadis stomach of all time. But because her skin
30:55
Speaker 1: is just so glowly. People will be like, Jess, your
30:58
Speaker 1: skin looks a smash, truly glowy. Are you pregnant? You
31:03
Speaker 1: have a certain gleam about you. Are you pregnant? Like
31:06
Speaker 1: you could just be beaming and radiating and looking at
31:08
Speaker 1: your prettiest self, and then people would be like, you
31:10
Speaker 1: must see pregnant. I was like, or you could be
31:12
Speaker 1: like me and be your most heinous self and be pregnant.
31:15
Speaker 1: So they're gonna come up with anything, and it's not
31:18
Speaker 1: at all. I don't even think that it would be
31:20
Speaker 1: referring to bodies sometimes. I think people just get really
31:25
Speaker 1: excited about babies for some reason. I don't know why.
31:28
Speaker 1: There's such a fascination around like pregnancy in babies on Instagram. Yeah,
31:37
Speaker 1: people love to they love it. Like even when I
31:41
Speaker 1: post about Dawson, it's weird because like people are like,
31:44
Speaker 1: he's so cute. When is baby number two? I'll get
31:47
Speaker 1: so many comments when's baby number two? You guys make
31:51
Speaker 1: beautiful children. When's the next? It's like, why do we
31:56
Speaker 1: need to always be more and more and more? I mean, yes,
31:58
Speaker 1: we hope to have more children. We're not bunnies. We
32:01
Speaker 1: don't just like keep pushing them out every two months.
32:05
Speaker 1: It was also something I learned at a very young age, Ashley,
32:09
Speaker 1: Like I would have to say, I was probably like
32:10
Speaker 1: three or four years old. Whenever I could communicate um
32:14
Speaker 1: words in a clear sentence. I remember very clearly my
32:19
Speaker 1: parents going, Hey, it's just not appropriate to ask somebody
32:22
Speaker 1: if they're pregnant, like, even if you expect it, suspect it,
32:26
Speaker 1: even if they're like nine months pregnant, and it's very
32:29
Speaker 1: say it. Yeah, you don't say it. It's just not
32:33
Speaker 1: a thing. Stop doing it. It's weird. Yeah, you let
32:37
Speaker 1: the ladies say it. That's what I always sat their moment.
32:40
Speaker 1: My thought, you bring it up, Yeah, let them have
32:42
Speaker 1: a moment, Let them tell you when they want to
32:44
Speaker 1: tell you. Let them make it very obvious to you
32:47
Speaker 1: that they are pregnant, and then you can celebrate. But
32:49
Speaker 1: until then, keep it to yourself or just stop thinking it.
32:53
Speaker 1: I know I'm imagining. Sometimes it comes from a very
32:57
Speaker 1: kind place, like I'm excited for you, are you pregnant?
33:01
Speaker 1: But it's it doesn't come off kind. It comes off
33:04
Speaker 1: a little intrusive, and it comes off a little offensive,
33:07
Speaker 1: and it's also just inappropriate. So let people tell you
33:11
Speaker 1: when they're pregnant. Yes, let me say exactly what Amanda said.
33:15
Speaker 1: She said one thing she didn't expect ever getting married,
33:18
Speaker 1: which she got married in September, is that people will
33:20
Speaker 1: immediately start asking if you're pregnant every day or tell
33:24
Speaker 1: you that you look pregnant. She said that every time
33:27
Speaker 1: she posts a photo, at least a couple of people
33:29
Speaker 1: ask if she's expecting baby number three, and after I
33:32
Speaker 1: said no, I'm not, someone literally told her you should
33:36
Speaker 1: take a test to make sure. People really can't be
33:41
Speaker 1: acting this way in twenty twenty three, stop asking if
33:43
Speaker 1: people are pregnant. I will say. This doesn't like really
33:48
Speaker 1: change thing. But she did do an ad for natural
33:50
Speaker 1: cycles the week before, tracking her cycle, and she does
33:54
Speaker 1: make it clear that she wants to have a child
33:55
Speaker 1: with her new husband, Michael, which might be flaring people
33:59
Speaker 1: as excitement for her in having another baby. Just don't ask,
34:04
Speaker 1: so it doesn't It doesn't give you the room to ask.
34:06
Speaker 1: It doesn't right exactly, She can share her plans with
34:10
Speaker 1: you without you asking if it's a thing or not yet. Yeah,
34:13
Speaker 1: keep it to yourself and then let them tell you anyways.
34:17
Speaker 1: That's all we have for today Again. Gabby is going
