  Speaker 1: This is the Benn and Ashley I Almost Famous podcast
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: with i R Radio. Almost Famous is back for another
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: week and we cannot be more excited to be talking
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: with you as we count down for this next season
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: of The Bachelorette to start. Ashley, are you excited to
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: get us off? Just to get us kicked off this
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: podcast in the best of ways? What are you most
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: excited for? Is you look forward forward to another season
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: of The Bachelorette. I'm most looking forward to the ending.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: That sounds like it's because I think that she's going
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: to end up with Blake, and that's what I'm really
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: curious to see. I guess that's the answer, is to
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: see how far Blake gets this. Do you mean sometimes
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: these past contestants going on new seasons backfires? Actually, I'd
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: say most of the time backfires. We have something interesting
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: and tell me where if I'm wrong. I remember something
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: where Peter had came on and talked about in an
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: interview with somebody else. How when Hannah Brown came on
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: his season, he was actually ready to leave for her.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: That obviously didn't happen. What do you think the reaction
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: has been Blake shows up? Do you think there's like
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: that kind of like I'm ready in this thing now
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: kind of deal. Or do they date through the whole process? No? No, No,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Blake's like not a huge deal, do you know what
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: I mean? It's not like the former. Well, it's not
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: like the It's not like one of these people was
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: the lead in the past. Okay, Um, So I don't
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: think like everybody's waited with bated breath. I just think
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: that they actually make sense together just from the little
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: I know about both of them. That's why I'm curious
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: to see how far it goes. And look how entertaining
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: it was when Nick came on Caitlyn season and didn't
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: get so far. It's fun to like already know one
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: person in the cast. It just makes you more invested
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: in the process, I would agree. I don't know. I mean,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: we have a we have many instances, like people act
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: like this is a brand new, shocking thing. I feel
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: like it happens most seasons. Off the time I was
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: gonna say, we could like go back right now and
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: think about it. I feel like almost every other season
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: there's somebody from a previous season. I mean, look, you
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: had to you had and that was that the start.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, we know that Um Chris, you know, Um
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: came on and showed up to the gate, never got no.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: So like, was he the first? I think so? And
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: then it started a trend. And then Nick like did
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: it so well that I think then it really started
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: the trend as to like I could be successful in
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: coming back. Yeah, I know obviously recently we've seen Heather
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Martin give it a good shot. It didn't go well.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it went well. I mean, I think
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: it went fine, but it didn't like it wasn't successful
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: on either end. Um, Nick, you know, is memorable for
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: that Blake comes on you think they might be together.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: I'm you know what, I'm interested. I was trying to
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: think through how I was gonna communicate this. I'd say,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: what maybe is intriguing me the most about this upcoming
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: season outside of the storyline of if she ends up
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: with somebody and who the contestants are and maybe we
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: like these guys movie we don't, it's how different does
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: this season feel? Like? I'm really intrigued just to see
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: what it's like to watch this season. I can't say
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I'm excited to watch this season. I mean, I can't
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: say I am either I'm intrigued. Yeah. I mean, We'll
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: be really honest here, it's like we didn't get to
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: know Katie that well. We didn't have weeks and weeks
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: with her. We didn't feel her heartbreak. I mean I
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: said this when she was first announced. I was like,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I didn't I don't feel super invested in her when
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: they broke up, Like I never felt chemistry between Matt
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: and Katie. Don't feel you know, when you don't When
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: you don't see somebody's heartbreak on the show, then it
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: doesn't feel like you can't wait to see where they
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: end up on Paradise or on the next show or
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: anything like that. And I think it's going to take
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: a bit for I don't know that a lot of
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Bachelor Nation is like, oh my gosh, I can't wait
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: to see who Katie ends up with. So I think
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: it might take some weeks for people to get into it.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: I am kind of curious to see how the first
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: week or two goes ratings was, just because it's a
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: little later than usual. It's not somebody who made it
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: to the top three the last time we had somebody
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: this far back. You know, who's eliminated that early on
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: become the lead was Juan Pablo. Yeah, I mean when
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: she was when she was even rumored again, Like I
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: can't even make a judgment calling Katie, Like I think
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I like her from a distance. I think she has
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: a lot of Caitlin Bristow in her um, you know,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: which is somebody that you know, people just enjoy being around.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: And she's funny and she can carry a conversation. But
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: I remember when she was even rumored, there was just
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: this like there's no way kind of feeling like there's
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: no not because of who she Yeah, it doesn't make sense,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: not because of who she is, Like Paradise would make sense.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: But it's like we don't know her, and you had
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: the breeze They're still right, I mean you had breed um,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: you had, you know, even at some level Rachel storyline
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: where it's like she's not with Matt anymore. Could that
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: be something that they play off of Michelle was there?
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Like it just felt like it was a stretch, which
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: if we're I mean, if we're speaking honestly right now,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know how much risk the Bachelor at franchise
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Bachelor Franchise can take right Now, when it comes to stretches,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: like they have some conversations they need to have, they
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: have some things that they need to change. We'll see
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: if that happens. But when it comes to like League contestants,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: I feel like they needed to pick somebody that they
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: knew everybody was gonna know going into this season like
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: this is a stretch. It's like it's it's kind of
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: like the Ari thing again in a sense, like it's like,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: how is this gonna work? People don't even hardly know
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: what's going on here? The one thing Ari like when
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Ari was there, it's just can either really go well
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: and people will be super into this idea, or it
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: could really backfire and people are gonna be like, I
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: don't I just don't know enough to follow this love story.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: People really weren't invested in Ari himself. They never he
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: never became the most lovable character on screen. I like
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Ari personally, you know, like between getting to know him
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: in real life, but like if you ask Bachelor Nation
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: their feelings on Ari, I don't think they really warmed
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: up to him until Lauren him were married and they
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: had Lessie and all that, so I would agree. I
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: mean he left that season with Becka Coo from being
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: the beloved character and you know the kind of the
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: girls in the season being the ones that people were
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: falling the closest. Hey, again, I don't know enough about
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Katie make a judgment call like I don't know anything
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: out or I'm really wanting the best for I just
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know how the people are gonna react and
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: if they're going to tune into something right now and
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: be talking about something. I mean, the franchise has been,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: uh has been so successful of the last let's say
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: five years because of the social media interaction, um, the
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: press and the media and the way people talk about it.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: You know, they need to get people out there talking
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: about it, and with everything going on, it's going to
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: be interesting to see if people keep talking about it. Yeah,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: and this is crazy little detail for something of a
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: season that we're so unsure about. I don't know if
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: that made any sense, But you guys are not talking
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: about just trying to build a suspense here about this
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: headline that I just pulled up. I'm going to drag
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: it out just a second longer. That sounds good to
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: just keep this anxious. Okay, Yeah, The Bachelor hasn't been
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: renewed yet, has been canceled, hasn't been renewed, and the
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: line says this is somewhat surprising considering the popularity of
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: the series. Now I know that they are casting for
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: The Bachelor. I follow Bachelor casting on Instagram, and they
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: are looking for women for the upcoming season, but ABC
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: has not announced whether or not it's really it's it's
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: going to be back up. I'll tell you the best
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: move The Bachelor can make with people way above my
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: pay grade, people that deal with this a lot closer
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I do. Here's how The Bachelor says themselves in Paradise. No,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: no one again, this because I have to you throw
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: my name into the hat as the host, not because
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I'll be the most pop No no, no, no, no, no,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: no you ever. We're going with this. You haven't heard.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: We're going this. This is not to take anybody's job.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: This is not to be the host of The Bachelor
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: or Bachelorette. Okay, you launch that senior citizen Bachelor Bachelorette
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: franchise show instead of The Bachelor. Well, just maybe even
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: an addition to it to kind of like maybe for
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: a year, you just kind of like do that, you
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: highlight that you give it a shot, and then you
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: move back into seeing what the Bachelor Bachelor it looks
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: like in a year from now. You kind of take
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: a break, reinvent yourself. You learn during the Senior Citizen
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Show of like what love and dating looks like for
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: people who are in a sense like really wanting it
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: and not just wanting the fame of it all. I'm
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the host of the show, not because I'd be the
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: best choice, but because I want that job so bad.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Like listen, then we both want Chris to return at
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: some point. We also really want you to be the
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: host of that show because you have an older spirit,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: an older and I think that you would really speak
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: to these people, like I can just see you kind
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: of like sitting down in a Mr. Rogers sweater on
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: the couch next to them and just saying just just
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: hearing about themselves, like yeah I have. This is not
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: anyway speaking to Chris if he comes back or does
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: not come back. This is not that I'm just saying,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: this is my dream job to to facilitate the opportunity
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: of love for a bunch of people who who are
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: what I think they said, like fifties, sixties, seventies. I
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: think or sixties and seventies was kind of like the
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: age because seniors, right, So what's the age of a senior?
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: I think, well, if you, I think you get your
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: art car. I think you get your art card at
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: fifty five, and I think that's when people the a
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: RP card typically comes in. Then oh no, a senior
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: citizen is to at least sixty five years old. Well good,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: It's like there's like different. I feel like my dad's
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: got cup of coffee at McDonald's for years and then
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: and every time he goes into like eating, if we
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: go to a restaurant to eat, like a Ponderosa or
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Ruby Tuesdays or Applebee's, he always shows his art card
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: and he gets like ten percent off and he if
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: I feel like he's the happiest guy in the world. Anyways,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: to say, like movie theaters think my parents have been
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: doing senior movie tickets for a while. I don't do
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: this often because it makes me very uncomfortable, but I'm like,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: if this show happens, I am pushing myself for it
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: so hard. I'm calling up every single connection I have.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: I say, I will do whatever you want, I will
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: be there. It would be absolutely incredible. Anyways, actually, no, no,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: not anyways, I have to paint this picture for you.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: So I think Wells is a great bartender for Paradise,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: that you could be a perfect bartender for that show
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: if you're not the host and instead of making like
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: tropical drinks and stuff, I can see you like bonding
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: over uh, bonding over life with these people, over Brandys
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: and like whiskeys and stuff and Tom's and pepto bismols.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Because that's what happens. I could I could literally just
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: be passing out Tom's Pepto bismol, Brandy's Whiskey's uh in
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: dark red wine. I don't know. It sounds like that
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: mustache I give the mustache right now. Um, this is
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: for the Senior show. This is this is my prep.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: I'm selling myself hard for this. Actually I don't. I mean,
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: come on now. Uh. It's it's a super exciting day
• 12:11

  Speaker 1: Al Right, guys, we have a Tierra. You may not
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: know her name, but you definitely know her title. She
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: was the chicken enthusiast on was It's Oh my god,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: it was Ben season. Was my season, Ashley. Don't forget
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: you know every contestant for my season together. So I
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: can't believe it's been that many years since you were
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: on the show. I'm so old now. I was like, oh,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: dear god, hey, watch yourself, I'm old. So when you
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: saw your bio and you saw that your job, your
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: occupation was listed as chicken enthusiast, how did you feel? Oh?
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: I loved it because that was my idea because when
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: they were like, oh, you're gonna go on this show
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: and you pretty much like for me, I was like,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: I have to quit my job because my job won't
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: sit there and wait for me to come back. And
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: so I was like, okay, So I quit my job,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: and I was like, I'm just gonna be a chickens
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: because I love birds. Wait, but I mean right now,
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: so you're driving home from work, No, I just got gas.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Now I'm going back to works, and now I have
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: a job again, do work. So let's go through some
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: other interesting titles that the Bachelor has had for their
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: contestants before. Well, first with Victoria Larson, we have Queen.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: With Lucas Yancy from Rachel's season, this might be my favorite.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: His job title is wa boom, just wa boom. Colt
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Susan had a girl named Aaron Landry. She must not
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: have lasted that long because her job title was Cinderella
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: and I don't really remember that. A d from Colton season,
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: her job was sloth Evan Bass not far off from
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: what he was. He was more of a business owner,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: but they like to call him and reptile dysfunctioned specialist.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Then Eric Yep Erica Rose was just a socialite. Jonathan
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: from Rachel's season it was the tickle Monster. And then
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: there's you, ti Ara, the Chicken Enthusiast. So I mean,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: how do you feel about Bachelor giving these titles to people?
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, I would say some of those are a
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: little bit weird, and I feel like, you know, there
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: might be for some attention, but I mean whatever, I
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: think it's kind of funny. People can take that and
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: run with it. And but I mean, okay, so you
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: chose the chicken enthusiast, you get a shot on national television.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: In your mind, you're you're laying in the hotel room
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: the night before this thing starts. Best case scenario for
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: you when it comes to your titles a chicken enthusiast,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: your ideal job, somebody reaches out and says, what we
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: want to hire you on as our You should have
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: worked for Purdue after I was gonna say petting zoo expert,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Like what would have been your dream outcome from being
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: a chicken enthusiast? Okay, so my dream is to own
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: an all organic chicken farm with like humanely like chickens
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: that are like raised, like laying eggs humanely, not like
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: stuffed in a tiny little cage. That is my secret
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: game that I probably told like six people. And now you, guys,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: I think you can make this happen. Yeah, what do
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: you love about chicken so much? It's a great question.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know anything where the beacon feathers like, I'm
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: really excited about. They're super funny, they're super smart, they're
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: so snugly, they have such great personalities, like they're wildly entertaining. Okay,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: so what's your first thought that goes through your head
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: when you see big bird back in the day as
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: a child, Like, is there something inside of you that
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: lights up in a way none of us could understand?
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: You know, probably not a big bird because it's not real.
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: Just a man in a costume, a creepy man in
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: a costume. Come on, not today today? Um yeah, but
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I just like, I see chickens and
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: I get really excited. Wow, that's like not in a
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: weird way. Because I had one guy so I did.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys probably didn't see. I
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: did this interview for this for Fox News last week,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: like out of nowhere, and I took my chicken and
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: I got a lot of good press from it. And
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: then I get this one guy who called me, I
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: won't say the world senseor myself. They called me a
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: chicken effort. And I was like, you have to be
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: kidding me. Like somebody somebody online posted about me on
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: his page calling me that, and I was just like cool,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: because you love animals, apparently that means we hook up
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: with our animals. That's that's a little aggressive of a
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: statement and assumption by him. Um, that would that would
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: change his interview quite a bit if that was the
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: direction we're going. But no, we're just more intrigued with
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: the idea of these weird job titles. Um, because people now,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm assuming you bring your chicken on the
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: Fox News. You did an interview last week, Like, people
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: still associate you with a chicken enthusiasts, which will be
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: what people associate these new cast members. They have some
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: weird jobs probably, you know, if they make a name
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: for themselves for years to come as well. Yeah, no,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: for sure. I mean people always remember the one guy
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: is a tickle monster, the one guys direct dysfunction. So
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: it might help. It might actually help contestants stay memorable
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: love totally. My last question for you, Sira is um,
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: I'm still always been very mind boggled as to how
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: you can love these animals so much and then still
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: eat them. Yeah, yeah, no, I got Peter had a
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: couple of words with me about that. Um, I you know,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: chicken is good for you. I don't need my own chickens.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: I you know what's healthy. So I'm not gonna go
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: eat my the birds that I raise and I only
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: use them for their eggs. But I've tried to cut
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: chicken out before, and I just like me like it. Yeah, well,
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: I got one last question before we see goodbye to you.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: I know you had to run here. One last question
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: for you. How what is the oldest chicken that you
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: have right now that you've raised? Like, what is your
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: longest relationship with a chicken to date? I have Karen
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: and she's about six years old, and her name is
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Karen and she is U Karen. And the next comes Trish,
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: So yeah, they got some great names. Trish and Karen
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: are my two older women that I found on the
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: side of the road. The huge great, Well, hey, thanks
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: for coming on. This means a lot to us. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: it was nice to hear from you, guys. I was like, oh, hey,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: good to see you too. Bye guys, We're back, bigger
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: and better than ever. For Actuler headlines, I hope next
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: week's headline is this Actuley. This is what I hope.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: I'm just gonna keep pounding this of the secret. Yeah,
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: and I'll only say this, I think Chris Here's would
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: have no interest even if he had, you know, if
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: everything was going smoothly over there at the network with him,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: he would have no interest in this. You know, it
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: would just be one more show. He would almost be
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: working all year round. I feel like I got some
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: time in my hands. Um. I just yeah, I hope
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: that's the headline next week. Let's let's see all of
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: you almost him is faithful. Uh, you can email Warner
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Brothers already, we give them some private email. Let me
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: let me just post in the show notes. We're gonna
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: post there. No but for real, guys, if you really
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: want to throw your hat in the ring for Ben,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: um d m Rob Mills. Okay, just type in Rob
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Mills into Twitter and say Ben for senior host. I
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: will wear so many cardigans it will make the viewers sick. Okay.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: Um first headline, Bachelor's Matt James reveals Rachel Ka gave
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: him the ultimatum he needed before they got back together. Yes,
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: they're back together. Ashley tells everything. Okay, Ben, So I
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: was a little confuzzled reading these headlines. So I decided
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: to listen to the podcast and which Matt talks about Rachel.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Because we had two headlines first about this ultimatum, and
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: then we had one about well an official move to NYC.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: We had like a lot of Rachel headlines with Matt.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: We also have one about their weekend get away. I'm okay,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: let me get the info from the horse's mouth. So
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Matt went on the podcast called Pomp Podcast this week,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: which is interesting because he doesn't do a lot of podcasts,
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: and he picked one that I've never heard of. Um,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: it's not a Bachelor podcast, it's actually a business podcast,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: because he wanted to talk about, you know, everything that
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: he does beyond the Bachelor, which is respectable, and um,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: he said, he spoke about the relationships so oddly that
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I gotta I can't just take
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: these this is written, this is written quote right now,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: I have to listen to the context. He made it
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: seem like on this podcast that he had, he was
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: speaking to an audience that wasn't just Bachelor fans, if
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And he made it seem
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: like Rachel and him broke up at some point and
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: like nobody knew it. He was like, yeah, so we
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: met on the show, and then Wallace Show was airing,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: we broke up for a little bit, and now we're
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: back together. I'm like, oh wow, wa a simple alright.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: So basically, he talks about after after the Final Rose,
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: but like I needed to go there for contact. He said,
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: we made a commitment to each other to work on
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: this relationship, and then there came to a point where
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: it was evident that my working on the relationship looked
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: different than Rachel's because I wasn't really honoring that commitment
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: that I had made to working on the relationship. So
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: he was referring at that point to after after the
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: final Rows, and then he said that Rachel said, if
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: you're going to make this work, let's do it. But
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: if you're not going to make it work, then I'm
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: not going that. I'm going to let you do your thing.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: And he said that's all he really needed to hear.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: He said it was he calls it an ultimatum, but
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: it was an ultimatum that he really needed to hear,
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: and ever since it's been great. So it was quite vague.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: They didn't they didn't harp on the timeline of the
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: relationship much or their reconciliation um. But he said, basically,
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: all it took was for Rachel to say, hey, are
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: we going to do this or not? So she comes
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: out of and says, hey, we're gonna do this or
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: not put some in his I mean, from what we're understanding,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: his response was like behind the scenes, he kind of
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: wanted this to work, Like you don't just react and say,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, okay, thank you, now I'm ready, Like he
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: was in a sense, what he's saying is he was
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: kind of like not oblivious, but he was like pushing
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: it off for a bit, not really putting his work in.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: And then there was something that happened or clicks for
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: him to say, no, I really actually want to make
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: this work with this girl. Yeah, exactly does this change?
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: Does this change the final episode of his season at all?
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: For you? I mean just in a sense of like
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: how it ended and how it kind of felt like
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: not that it was cold, but it was so distant. Yeah,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to harp on it. We
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: talked about it again last we talked about last week.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: But it's still like it gets more and more bizarre
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: for me to think back on that final episode and
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: be like, you sat there so cold towards a woman
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: that you apparently had plenty of thought about getting back
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: together with. Yeah, I mean, it's just there's just a
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: lot left un said, and I think we said that
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: a few weeks ago. But there's just a lot there
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: where it's like what exactly is going on behind the
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: scenes of their relationship. But we're excited for him, I
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: mean we were, so we're I mean ultimately, no matter
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: how crazy this show gets and and how wild these
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: contestants act, like, one of the coolest parts is when
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: people get together from it and they explore a relationship
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: if it works, forever if it doesn't, but like, at
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: least we get to see like a relationship blossom, sometimes
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: into a marriage, sometimes not, sometimes into into just storylines
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: that we follow. You know, this is one of those
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: where now we're like, this is this is all good
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: and now let's follow it along. But we have more
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: headlines from Matt James and right, Okay, they made it
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: official in a sense right on Instagram this week. Yeah,
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: I saw it um being posted. I was like, I
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: think this is a big deal. I you know, I
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: don't follow stuff as closely as maybe others do, but
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: I think this is a big deal because there are
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: photos posted and she was tagged in it. But there
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: was no like announcement of like, yeah, actually, hey we're dating.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: It was just like we're together hanging out. Yeah, I
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: actually kind of like the way that they did this.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: It's you know, I think this seems very authentic to Matt.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: It's a picture of the two of them visiting a
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: school in New York City, and elementary school, and they're
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: volunteering teaching students about financial literacy, which is really awesome.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: And underneath we have Emmanuel Acco saying proud of y'all.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Very nice. And this wasn't the only thing they did
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: in New York City or the New York area together
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: this weekend. They also went away with Tyler Cameron and
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: his girlfriend Camilla Kendra. They went to the Hampton's together
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: and they said it says, despite the chilly weather, it
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: seemed like everybody was having a blast. Uh. And while
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: speaking about Rachel and Matt in New York City, she's
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: currently deciding whether or not to move there. Of course,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: she's Georgia base, and she says or not. Sources say
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: that she's always loved the city, but she's not going
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: to move there solely just to be with Matt. She
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: would also be moving there to be close to her friends.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: And if she did move there, she would definitely be
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: going back and forth a lot to Georgia, which is
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: where her family is well. Speaking of Matt James and
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: one of his contestants, the Next Bachelor at Katie Thurston,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: who we talked about the beginning of the episode. We're
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: very excited for her season, ready to watch another of
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: the season again. Has a headline from ET that reads,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: Kitty Thurston's emotionally confronts her men about why they're there, Ashley,
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: what are we seeing here? What are we hearing? So
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: she's wearing a beautiful green dress in this scene. You
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: guys can go watch it on Entertainment Tonight's website. It's
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: an exclusive to them. It looks as if she's how
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: do a few Rose ceremonies thus far? And this scene
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: takes place before another Row ceremony and she says, I'm shaky,
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: im literally shaking right now. I made my intentions very
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: clear as to why I'm here. A bomb was dropped
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: on me about multiple people still here for the wrong reason.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: She says, if you are not here for an engagement,
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: then get out. Very interesting that she says there are
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: people still here for the wrong reason. So that's why
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming it's a rose ceremony that happens a couple
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: of weeks in, because I think she's kicking people out
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: already for the wrong reasons. We've seen one of the
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: teasers that there's a guy that says, I'm not here
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: to make friends, I'm here for followers. I mean, that's
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: why I say that kind of laughingly, kind of laughingly
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: like that's a word, but I say that lightheartedly. But
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: it's actually quite sad, sad for Katie entertaining for us,
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: I suppose, yeah. And I feel like that kind of
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: stuff you're just gonna see more and more of, and
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: it's kind of it's kind of the new cool thing
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: to own. It's like I'm here to get famous and
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say it, and like that's gonna be my
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: stick and I'm gonna get yelled at for it, and
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: people are gonna like me. And then they get off
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: the show and they don't really get famous, and then
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: they just kind of, like, I don't know, move on
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: with life. But it's I feel like it's just gonna
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: be a thing that people talk about. It's just interesting here.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: As you said, it feels like it happens a few
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: weeks in, so like this is what is this going
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: to be kind of the consistent storyline for the first
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks. It's like, you know, I mean, actually,
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: you know I've talked about it particularly unique. No, that's
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's not shocking. Like how many times
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: during this show have we had people go on. I mean,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: you've talked about it, like you went on not only
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: with open to finding love, but also going this could
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: be good for me. Now you found love on it
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: and that's great, so you're still open to it. I
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: think that's the big difference here. But like if somebody
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: would have asked you in private before this all started,
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: like Ashley at the end of it all, what are
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: you hoping this gets out of you? Like? It just
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: seems like a good opportunity. I would say the same.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: Like when I I wanted to shake life up a bit,
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: I was like, I want to create a story to tell.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: Back then, followers aren't really a thing we talked about
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: because it wasn't really there. But it's like it was
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: a story to tell. It shook life up a bit.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: It's not unique, it's it's been around for a long time.
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine the pressure there is to get far
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: on the show now just for financial reasons. I actually
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: want to bring up another hot topic right now, which
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: is Jason Tartik's new podcasts. It's really good. I listened
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: to a couple of episodes already. Um it's called Trading Secrets,
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: and he had Dean on this week for his premier week,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: and they talked about how much they got paid for
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: doing Bachelor shows. But to go back to my question,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: how intimidating is it to be there just knowing that
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: if you get eliminated early, not only are you feeling
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: embarrassed missing out on like your TV time, you know,
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: missing out on dating somebody that you were interested in,
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: but also like you could have could have been a
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: lucrative thing for you but it doesn't work out. Yeah,
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: I'm just being honest. I guess it is. I think
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: with Paradise now that you kind of have like a
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: back like if you can fall back on that, if
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: you can go to it, then you have that and
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: that helps out. I mean, you know, Dean got most
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: of his following from Paradise with his you know, so
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: there's some other options. It's it's still though, just uh,
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: I guess a sad attempt for like the katies who
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: are there giving up a big portion of their life,
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: and she's like, Hey, I don't know if it's gonna
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: an engagement or not, but at least I want to
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: give it a shot. And then when people are there
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: like just kind of like not wanting that but trying
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: to stay around a long time. It's probably frustrating and
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: tiring for her. I mean, how many times do I
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: have to say it. It's like, if you want to
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: go on for followers of money and opportunities and travel
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: and friends and all that, it's like, awesome, do that,
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: but also like, do not go on the show unless
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: you do want to get engaged, unless you are ready
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: for marriage, because that's when it's left up. Yeah. Yeah,
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: well it's one guy that went back I think with
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: the with good intentions. Katie Thurston gets surprised visit from
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: former contestant Blake Moyne's and Bachelor at sneak peek. We
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: talked about this at the beginning of episode, but Ashley
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: in the sneak peek we actually see it. It is
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: now confirmed, so he doesn't come in with the guys
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: on night one. It looks like, but I do think
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: that he comes in really early, early enough that he's
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: not going to ruffle any feathers. In the clip, you
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: see that he's outside her room holding a boombox. You know,
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: all up John Cusack and say anything, and then Katie goes,
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: oh my god, it's Blake. That's it. That's always see
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Katie Thurston's seasons come up? When when does it air?
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: Actually June seven, some other June seven? So week from today?
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: Why old? Um you guys from week from yesterday? Actually,
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: I mean we're no way, that's so crazy. Okay, just
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: a couple of little sound bites that are in the
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: previews that are enticing. She says, I'm done. She's just
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: the classic I'm done. She says, someone booked my flight
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: home and that Yeah, those are the those are the
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: two ones he wants to leave at some point. Yeah,
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: don't we all? Well, Uh, it's gonna be It's gonna
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: be an interesting season. As we talked about and what
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: we talked about it more is weeks continue. This is
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: our last uh podcast for the I guess what we
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: say off season? Um, which is pretty crazy. We start
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: breaking down Katie season next week, but until then, one
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: of the big storylines coming through the headlines. Uh for
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. Now it's not really stopping
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: anytime soon either, I feel, because both sides are pretty
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: open about it. But here's the head line. Peter Webber says,
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: Kelly flinnagain's interview about their breakup was very calculated. What
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: a word, I know. Okay, So there's a little back
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: and forth here. If you guys remember last week we
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: talked about how Kelly was on Chicks in the Office
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: the bar Stool podcast, and she said not so great things.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: You know, she was like, get out of my house,
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: I never want to see you again, like that kind
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: of thing. When things finally ended with Peter on their
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: second attempt or maybe their third attempt, however you interpret it.
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: And then Peter got on his podcast this week, his
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: Bachelor's in the City podcast, and he said, I'm going
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: to be so brutally honest with you guys and just
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: speak from the heart. I thought it was very calculated,
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: he said. I thought, hearing how it went, that it
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: was trying to push for a headline line. Very calculated,
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: very disingenuous. That's too bad. I didn't necessarily expect that
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: from Kelly. This has been half a year, saying half
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: a year since their breakup. I don't believe that they
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: rekindle things in February and then they like dated for
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: like six weeks, So it hasn't exactly been half a year. Okay,
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: we're gonna be precise about it because this has been
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: half a year, which is even crazier now in my opinion,
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: that more podcasts hello there are continuing to come out
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: and talk about this. There's nothing new here. There is
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: no new news. This is literally half a year old.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: And that's why I bring it back to this calculated
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: point that I talked about in the beginning and wanting
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: to write it out as long as and her wanting
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: to write it out as long as she possibly can
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: or make headlines or get people talking. Uh. He said
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: that he's open to having a private talk with Flannagan
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: and that he's one moved on and of course whish
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: for the best. Well, I mean, you can say some
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: of the stuffing this is his relationship. You know, it's
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: six months out. It feels like we've moved on. Okay, whatever,
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: But we're going to talk about it as long as
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: one of them is talking about it, like exactly. And
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: then he's talking about it. So you just you're talking
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: about podcasts, talking about it. You're you're talking about on
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: your podcast. We're going to this is a big story.
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: I wonder what Peter's mom feels about the whole thing.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: Is she came out and said anything yet? Do we know?
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, let's have Barb on the podcast down
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: right now, bar Bar. We gotta hear a barbed thinks
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: about this whole thing. It's It's wild. Does she love
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Kelly as much as she still remember how she was
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: obsessed with her? Yeah? I mean they had they had
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: a bunch of nice little like oh didn't she didn't
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Barb get into the TikTok game for a bit, and
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: the real and the stories. Yeah, I mean a couple
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: of Hey, good for them. It's always nice when you're
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: your mom like your significant other. But I wonder if
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: things have changed a little bit now. Well, this story
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: is not done yet, because the next headline reads this,
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: Kelly Flannagan hits back at Peter Webber for accusing her
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: of being calculated. This according to Glamour, So this week,
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Kelly got on her own YouTube account to address some things.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: In an eight and a half minute video, she said,
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: usually I'd let it slide, but when there are things
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: out there that are misconstrued, I'm always going to stick
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: up for myself as I think everyone else should. And
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: this is kind of in reference to what is being
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: said about me that I'm calculated, that I want to
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: hit headlines, that I'm disingenuous, and things like that. She
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: said that the bear was poked her she being the bear.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: The bear was poked. There was a lot of things
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: going on, being disrespected, going and hanging out with my family, friends,
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: posting everywhere. It was just like, I don't understand why
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: when you end badly with someone, you think that the
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: person would just try to respect you a little bit
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: and just go their way instead of reaching out to
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: my friends when something happens that's extremely disrespectful. You have
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: to know your worth and you have to sit there
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: and say good luck to you. I wish you the
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: best in the future, but I just don't necessarily want
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: you in my life. She also said, I think I
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: would have respected him more if he didn't accuse me
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: of trying to hit headlines. Oh my, this is an ending,
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: is it? We're gonna go back and forth for a bit.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: Let's see if Peter has a rebuttal on his podcast.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: Let's have Peter Peter come on here, ye, Peter Maybunion
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: come on. That would be great. Actually, just a few
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: more headlines here to break down. One that we want
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: to celebrate a couple that just got married this week
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: and Bachelor's Kaylea Quinn Mary's Nick barrella in waterfront ceremony
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: is according to us, it is a beautiful ceremony. She
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: looks gorgeous, he looks handsome. Things are fantastic, They look
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: so so good, so pretty. Um. I was following along
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: with Olivia and Charlene's post this week, and the wedding
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: looked beautiful. It was at the Ringling Museum of Art,
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: and Kayla gave an exclusive quotes to us saying, I
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: am so excited to announce that Nick and I are
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: finally married. It was truly a dream day in Sarasota,
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: Florida at the Ringling Museum of Art. Wish it didn't
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: have to end. Um. And yeah, they were supposed to
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: initially get married in Lake Cuomo, Italy. Yeah, and then
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: they were planning another one in Ohio. Um. But because
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: they had to postpone the wedding twice because of Corona.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: They just I think, decided to do it in the state. Well,
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: it was a beautiful day. Super pumped for them. Um,
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: she she's stunning in just a bright soul on her
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: wedding day. Well, Actually, I feel like recently, all we've
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: done is talk about I mean, I feel like, I mean,
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: this is definitely a show talking about the Bachelor, but
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: I feel like it's just been a really confusing relationship
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: show here recently. Also, because this headline is one that
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: I'm confused. I don't know if they're engaged, if they're dating,
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: if they're broken up. I don't know what's going on.
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: So you gotta break it down for me. Dale mos
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: shares couple pick from Hawaii trip with Claire Crawley featuring
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: her engagement ring. This according to people, there's a picture
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: she's wearing her engagement ring. Are they I guess? So?
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: I get yeah, I mean, she wouldn't wear her engage
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: ring if they weren't engaged. But I kind of love
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: the way they're dealing with it. Now. Do you not
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: feel like this is far more of a It was
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: always genuine on Claire side. In my opinion, I had
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: many doubts and reservations a dale, but since they've rekindled,
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: I trust him so much more just me. I mean, yeah,
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: I guess so, mostly because I think mostly because the
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: hot topics in the headlines and the posting and all
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: that has slowed down, And so then we see them
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: back together and it's like, okay, like maybe you know,
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: maybe this was just too much too soon, um, and
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: like there's some clarity getting involved and they still care
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: about each other, which is that's that's good, isn't it. Yeah?
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: I definitely just I just trust him more. I don't know, Um,
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: they're keeping it far more private. It just seems less blashy,
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: feels better, feels much more grounded. So yeah, we'll continue
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: to see, um where they end up. But I like
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: that they're not like it's not all splashy on Instagram
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: with them, because you know, when you've had a passive
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: a rocky road, I think it's always safest to like
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: kind of take it slow with the public. It's a
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: I'll say, I mean, I'm broken record here. It's another
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: relationship we're gonna follow. I don't know what's going on.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: We've gotta find out, Like, are they engaged. Are they
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: getting married? I mean they've been together a lot recently,
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: They've been taking trips together. Um, you know, what's what's
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: their life look like? Now? Post kind of consistent bachelor headlines,
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: except we're gonna follow the story and we'll tell you
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: about it right here. Well, um, just a few questions
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: for you here, Ashley before we kind of move on.
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: Um with the final headline, do you think Kelly Flannion
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: is going to Paradise? Like? Do you think this is
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: a thing? Yeah, I know we should have talked about
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: this a second ago. Bennett says that he's in touch
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: with Kelly fairly regularly. Uh, we know Bennett is going
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: to Paradise. He says that the two of them have
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: hung out once in person. He says that, um, it
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: was a great first meeting. He thinks she's a smart girl.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: He's open to seeing her again and would love to
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: take her out and get to know her a little
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: bit more as she moves to New York. She also
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: mentioned that she was kind of sort of seeing someone
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: down in Florida, which he says he's totally respectful of. Um,
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: but he says that he thinks that you know, around
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: thirty seven thirties thirty six thirty seven, you kind of
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: sort of know what's seeing someone means. He also said
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: that he's been in New York for a long time.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: Things can change rapidly and quickly, and all do with
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: all due respect, it would be a pleasure to get
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: to know her, so to me, like taking that article
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: and then taking like the fact that Kelly is still
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: posting on Instagram, I feel like maybe she's not going
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: to Paradise Um. Maybe she's some sort of seeing someone
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: down in Florida, or maybe she was kind of telling
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: Bennett that because she didn't want to see Bennett again.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: I think both of them are very plausible options. What
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: do you think, I mean, Ben, it's got to be
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: gone right, I mean, Bennett's got to be weak one er,
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: I would think so. I mean, he says, you know,
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: like you said, they're still in contact. If she is
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: seeing somebody yet now it's public that she's talking to Bennett, like,
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it's on a friend like I
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: want to, I don't think i'd be cool with that, Like,
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: especially if you're in like a relationship that you've agree like, hey,
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: let's date and to figure this out and then like
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: the headlines are like, yeah, Kelly flinning and talking to
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: Benn and Jordan, it's like, oh my god. I know right,
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: it'd be like, okay, dude, you're talking about our relationship
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: way before it's a relationship. I would be like, I'm
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: out of here, and yeah, it just seems weird. So
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: I won't be shocked if she shows up. But I know,
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: but I I don't know. I shouldn't say that. I
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: would assume that Bennett's going to be there from the
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: very beginning. Well, Bennett posted on Instagram last twenty one
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: hours ago and Kelly posted last. So maybe they're just
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: not in the original cast, because I do believe the
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: original cast is down there already. Um oh, Kelly posted
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: thirty minutes ago. So we'll see, unless they have somebody
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: else are running there and pogram right now for them. Yeah,
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: maybe they're like doing that whole thing where you go
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: down to Mexico, you quarantine for like fifteen days before
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: they release you from the hotel room, and you show
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: up for like, how who did that? A couple of
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: years ago the Connor, Yeah, he was like down there
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: for like two weeks in a hotel room and then
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden' like Okay, today's your day, and
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: there he goes. Well. Two last headlines. One is about you, Ashley. Uh.
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: You came out publicly uh and said that Jared is
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: getting sperm analysis after six months of trying to conceive.
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: This according to UH an US article. What's going on?
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: Ash Oh, it's according to us and people and in
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: Yahoo it was very awkward. So I wanted to I mean, like,
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: I've like loved being open and honest like every step
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: of the way during this like trying to conceive journey.
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: And I wrote a big post about it last week,
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: and like the last paragraph or something I wanted to say.
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: Lots of people have been asking me, like if I'm testing,
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: like for fertility stuff up already, and I'm like, no,
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: my doctor said that it's very normal. Six months in
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: just no, she does not think it's needed to be
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: tested like a girl. That's more invasive. And the woman
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: gets into tested the tests are more invasive. She's like,
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: that's not needed for you until a year. She's like,
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: but if you do want to test the guys sperm um, no,
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: no need to wait there. Um, it's super duper easy.
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: Just here's literally a cup making you can you can
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: literally do it at home. Um. She gave me a
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: cup with like the address to bring it to um
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: when he's done, and you just have to make sure
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: that the sample gets to the doctor's office within an
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: hour and then they do it like within the day.
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: Just figured out one in three to four, so about
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: a third of couples who are having fertility issues it's
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: actually the sperm that is the issue. So it's just
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: a really nice, easy, um quick test to kind of
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: rule that out. And it's totally appropriate to do around
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: the six month mark. So um, yeah, Jared never expected
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: that my Instagram caption would go, uh make headlines like that.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: Felt a little awkward, but it was also a very
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: very good laugh, more of a good laugh than anything. Well,
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: and I had a couple of people in my life,
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: I know, Jessica's mom and my mom who they both
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: you know, struggled at times with getting pregnant. Um, they
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: both reached out, We're like, hey, just let actually know.
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: She's just like yeah, like it's all good. Um. So
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: I know people out there in support, and I know
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: you're not alone in this. I know a lot of
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: people have been through this journey, um, and can probably
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: be there to rally around you. I mean, I think
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: it's one of the cool things about the platform that
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: you have is when you do have something going on
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: that maybe are you're confused by or that's not going
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: the way you think, you can reach out to the
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: general public and say, hey, is anybody else feeling this also? Um, yeah,
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: it's just uh, it's it's vulnerable, yet it's supportive and
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: so we're all here, um, you know, excited to see
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: how this journey plays out for you. However it does
• 51:01

  Speaker 1: Now you not only are the owner, uh and as
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: actually mentioned, you started it in which is crazy to
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: think about that that this has been going on now
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: for twenty years, a little over twenty years. My question
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: for you to start this thing out, does a flower
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: choice say a lot about a person um and if so,
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: how do you feel about the roses were representing the
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: Bachelor and Bachelor franchise type one? Okay, I yes, I
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: think flower totally says a lot about a person um.
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: But I'm a huge fan of all types of flowers.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: I even I have roses behind me right now. But
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: roses just say love that, you know, and then you
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: pick all the different colors. I mean, if you think
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: about it, a rose is one of those flowers that
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: has a meaning behind every single color. And there's so
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: many different colors of roses, which is insane. So whenever
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: people like pick up flowers for their weapon or something
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: like that, and they pick a color, I'm always like, Okay,
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: what roses? That like the first thing I think about.
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: So I think it's kind of the staple. How do
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: the flowers on the show? Look? How do the flowers
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: on the shop? Yeah? Like, do we have good quality roses? Oh?
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: Can you tell? Of course? Yeah, no, definitely. It's hard
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: to go wrong with roses, you know. I mean, they're
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: just so get beautiful. I've been I just planted a
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: garden outside and I have two rosebushes bushes in there.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: One is a pink rose bush. The other one is
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: what they call a Neil diamond rose bush. There's a
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: little bit of mixture of colors. It's like a white
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: diamond it's like white and red together. It's like a
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: speckled rose. My question for you, um, we can take
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: this offline if we need to. But if I really
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: rock this out, how do I get How do I
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: start selling my roses to you? Um? I want to
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: be a vendor a supplier. I got two rose bushes.
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: I'm guessing I'll get at least twenty out of them. Uh,
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: this year, we've got we've got a ways to go.
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: We've got ways to go. We gotta get to like
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: acreage two rose bushes. So I'm feeling we're like by
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: four square. Yeah, well, don't count out. Just think about it.
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: You can email me separately. But I'm very interested in
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: selling my roses and daisies. I got daisies. Okay, I'll
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: get my order in for twenty forty. I feel like
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: we're going to be right there. Yeah. Okay. So we
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: know that roses, the color of them symbolize different things.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: I know red is love and romance, right isn't yellow? Friendship? Yes?
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: Yellowest friendship? So what do the other colors mean? White
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: could be purity, honesty. I mean, honestly, when you look
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: up the colors of flowers and what they mean, you
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: can kind of find something that works. I mean, red
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: roses universal love. We know this, you know, so that's
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: kind of a go too. But if you really want
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: to look up the colors of flowers, you could pretty
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: much find a meaning for almost any one of the colors. Really,
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: do you feel like the Bachelor franchise has ruined roses? No?
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: Not at You've just and you've just made them even
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: more important. I still have like a little bit of
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: reaction every time I see a red rose. I feel uncomfortable. Yeah,
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: I get weird. No, I mean you think about all
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: the different types of red roses there are now, I mean,
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: the different types of red rietal roses is crazy. There's
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: like hearts roses, there's red and tuition, there's black picara,
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: there's the red velvet, there's freedom. I mean, there's so
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: many hundreds of red roses. So it's crazy. Yeah, well,
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: what kind do we use on the Bachelor? Freedom is
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: usually the ones that you guys have. Yeah, okay, freedom roses.
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: You feel that way about that, then yeah, I'm gonna
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: start growing them. So the final question about roses. When
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: I planted my roses, I made sure to keep them
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: very hydrated. I put some paper newspaper below them with
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: some fertilizer that I think will work really well for
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: these roses. How often do I water my roses? Oh
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: my gosh, Now we're talking about planting though I'm not
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: a grower problem, But let's talk about cutting them and
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: how long you can keep them alive in your do that.
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: Let's cut them and keep them alive. Okay, Yeah, because
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: I'm not good at planting, you probably have better like
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: with your rose bushes than I do. Okay, I'm great
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: at cutting and designing, but keep him alive. Always make
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: sure you have fresh water, and you're putting all your
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: roses in a vase, and then the lead end up
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: in the water. That bacteria is what kills off the roses.
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: That's what we don't want. Interesting. And now Ben's getting
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: married in November. Ben, have you given any thought to
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: the flowers yet? I mean, I guess so, right, No,
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: I've given I mean, I'm sure Jessica has. I'm sure
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: he's growing the roses for the way. I think my
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: job was to garden. Her job is to pick the
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: flowers for the wedding. I've given no thought to that,
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: but I'm sure Jessica has Is there any trends right
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: now with roses at weddings? Aiming um, people are going
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: color a lot of color this year, which I love
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: and I honestly think more bang for the buck when
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: you do that. So I have a feeling you guys
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: might be headed down that path. I'm a big Kilor fan.
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: I like good color color. Neil Diamond roses. Where did
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: this Neil Diamond rose name come from? I mean it
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: has to come from Neil Diamond. You know what rose bushes.
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: A lot of the garden rose bushes like that they
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: have there. A lot of them are inspired by someone,
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: so that's probably how. And then they take two different
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: types of roses and they cross breathe them and they
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: turn them into another bush. My mom's obsessed when Neil Diamond.
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to get her something. You're gonna have
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: to go. It's there, there, everywhere. Actually, it's very popular. Okay, Well,
