- 0:06Speaker 2: Hey, guys, welcome to the Almost Famous podcast. I am
- 0:08Speaker 2: here today with my friend Curista sutter Hey and we
- 0:13Speaker 2: are doing basically Frankie Friday.
- 0:16Speaker 3: It is another big week.
- 0:19Speaker 2: Of Taylor Frankie Paul headlines. Now, are the DCFS is involved?
- 0:26Speaker 2: The Department of Child and Family Services. I know you're
- 0:30Speaker 2: like DCFS, What does that am stand for? Again?
- 0:34Speaker 3: I mean, I know it's like child Services.
- 0:36Speaker 2: But okay, so I'm sure our wonderful producer Heather will
- 0:40Speaker 2: be popping in since I feel like she is our
- 0:43Speaker 2: Taylor Frankie Paul expert.
- 0:45Speaker 3: She just knows so many things.
- 0:49Speaker 2: But Trista, what's your overall take right now on what's
- 0:53Speaker 2: going on with this poor situation?
- 0:57Speaker 4: I just never it never ends, and I just feel
- 1:03Speaker 4: bad for all parties, especially the kids, especially Taylor. I
- 1:09Speaker 4: I don't necessarily have any love lost for these guys, who,
- 1:14Speaker 4: it seems like, just continue to send out information into
- 1:21Speaker 4: the world exactly poke and manipulate, and I'm just not
- 1:27Speaker 4: a fan. I obviously number one priority is the kids.
- 1:35Speaker 4: And you know, reading that article, the TMZ article, it's
- 1:39Speaker 4: about d DCSF and or did I say it right?
- 1:43Speaker 4: D CFS, I got wrong, and I just it It
- 1:50Speaker 4: doesn't I agree with her lawyers. It doesn't show the
- 1:53Speaker 4: full picture. Like all they're doing is showing, like you know,
- 1:57Speaker 4: pulling whatever they can, whatever quotes that they can from
- 2:01Speaker 4: Taylor to make her look bad. And obviously she said
- 2:04Speaker 4: some things, but I also feel like in today's day
- 2:08Speaker 4: and age, like she said something like my life coach
- 2:11Speaker 4: is the only one keeping me alive right now. And
- 2:13Speaker 4: I feel like so many times in our society, when
- 2:17Speaker 4: do you say, like, oh my god, I could strangle
- 2:20Speaker 4: my child right now. You know, obviously you don't mean it.
- 2:24Speaker 4: It's the way our society, like we hyperbolate whatever the
- 2:29Speaker 4: word is, you know. And I feel like she probably
- 2:33Speaker 4: was saying she has been a godsend to me? Should
- 2:36Speaker 4: she have said she has been a godsend to me
- 2:38Speaker 4: instead of she's the only one keeping me alive right now?
- 2:41Speaker 4: So that record'sren't going out, you know what I mean?
- 2:44Speaker 2: Look at the difference in the in how those statements
- 2:47Speaker 2: could be constructed, like, you know, interpreted, But that's also
- 2:51Speaker 2: they mean kind of the same thing totally.
- 2:54Speaker 4: So I feel like, yes, the way that things are
- 2:57Speaker 4: being said, I don't think we're getting the whole picture,
- 3:03Speaker 4: and it's so frustrating to me and it's not my life.
- 3:06Speaker 3: Well, let's get into what you're saying.
- 3:08Speaker 2: So what Trista is referring to is that TMZ had
- 3:14Speaker 2: this breaking news this week where there was a petition
- 3:17Speaker 2: filed by Utah's Child Services, which, to me, this would
- 3:23Speaker 2: be when I was most scared if I were Taylor,
- 3:25Speaker 2: because now like the government is getting into her family
- 3:29Speaker 2: life and it's like, Okay, now I'm really scared. Now
- 3:32Speaker 2: I don't have to deal with just like this stupid
- 3:34Speaker 2: X of mine and like in the court arguing with him,
- 3:38Speaker 2: but like.
- 3:38Speaker 3: The actual state.
- 3:40Speaker 2: So the agency is asking a juvenile court to find
- 3:46Speaker 2: Taylor's three children. They're asking the court to find Taylor's
- 3:52Speaker 2: three children have been abused, neglected, or dependent. Does that
- 3:55Speaker 2: mean they have to go in search of this they
- 3:59Speaker 2: need to go search for evidence of this?
- 4:01Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 4:02Speaker 4: I think they are using the evidence that was at
- 4:06Speaker 4: the May home visit.
- 4:07Speaker 3: Okay, so there's a May home visit. This is what happened.
- 4:10Speaker 2: The Children's Services came to her house in May and
- 4:15Speaker 2: her life coach Carrie was said, she said, this is Carrie.
- 4:22Speaker 4: No, Taylor said about Carrie.
- 4:24Speaker 3: This is what Taylor said about Carrie.
- 4:27Speaker 4: Taylor told DCFS her life coach was the only reason
- 4:31Speaker 4: she was still alive, and she wanted Carrie to conduct
- 4:36Speaker 4: the assessments.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Oh, I was reading that wrong. Okay, Interesting, Carrie is
- 4:43Speaker 2: the only reason that she's alive. Well, okay, yes, again
- 4:48Speaker 2: that's definitely a hyperbole, but will continue. In the documents,
- 4:52Speaker 2: they're claiming that Taylor said that Carrie wasn't qualified. Okay,
- 4:58Speaker 2: so yes, the agency said car is not qualified to
- 5:01Speaker 2: do these assessments. So then they said in the same visit,
- 5:10Speaker 2: the petition says that Taylor got upset reading social media
- 5:13Speaker 2: messages and stormed out of the house.
- 5:16Speaker 3: Girl, what the hell?
- 5:18Speaker 2: Why are you reading social media content in front of
- 5:22Speaker 2: the Department of Children and Family Services and you couldn't
- 5:25Speaker 2: keep your together enough to you stormed out of the house.
- 5:31Speaker 4: I mean, who knows if she was in another room
- 5:33Speaker 4: and like they were talking to the kids or something,
- 5:36Speaker 4: who knows. But still she shouldn't be reading messages. I mean,
- 5:39Speaker 4: we all know who live in the world of social media,
- 5:42Speaker 4: especially when she is hitting the fan to stay away
- 5:47Speaker 4: because people are just freaking mean and they don't have
- 5:49Speaker 4: any filter and they're just gonna say what they want
- 5:52Speaker 4: to say, but they don't know you, so just it. Definitely,
- 5:56Speaker 4: that would be that would be the first tip. I
- 5:58Speaker 4: actually was watching Jones Stories yesterday, I or maybe she
- 6:03Speaker 4: did a reel or something, and she was talking about
- 6:05Speaker 4: the first piece of advice she got when she said
- 6:08Speaker 4: she was going to be the bachelorette was from Lisa
- 6:10Speaker 4: vander Pump and she was like, stay off social media.
- 6:13Speaker 4: Like it's true, it's not good for anybody.
- 6:17Speaker 2: No, definitely not, but Taylor keeps doing it. This is interesting.
- 6:24Speaker 2: The agency claims that she told caseworkers she wasn't suicidal,
- 6:29Speaker 2: but they should know who killed her if she ends
- 6:34Speaker 2: up dead, because she felt no one believes her.
- 6:40Speaker 4: I mean, that's so heavy.
- 6:41Speaker 2: It's so heavy it is, and we know who she's
- 6:44Speaker 2: referring to, well obviously say it.
- 6:47Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 6:48Speaker 2: The filing also cites that Taylor's twenty twenty three aggravated
- 6:54Speaker 2: assault plea the domestic assault that we all saw in
- 6:57Speaker 2: the video.
- 6:58Speaker 3: It says, you know that Indy their daughter or her daughter.
- 7:01Speaker 2: Was present, and it further alleges that Indy changes Ever's diaper.
- 7:07Speaker 3: That's the that's the little son.
- 7:09Speaker 2: How old is Indy, Well, she's like eight, prepares his
- 7:13Speaker 2: bottle and often hears Taylor in Dakota fighting, which makes
- 7:16Speaker 2: her sad. Okay, I don't think that an eight year
- 7:18Speaker 2: old changing the diaper or preparing his bottle should necessarily
- 7:21Speaker 2: be a red flag unless.
- 7:23Speaker 4: Thousand percent sorry, I would be like, yes, please can
- 7:28Speaker 4: you help? Mom? Like it like there I'm saying that
- 7:30Speaker 4: that is a horrible thing if and she probably wants
- 7:34Speaker 4: to help, like as a big sister, She's like, I
- 7:37Speaker 4: want to help. Like I would have been that way
- 7:39Speaker 4: if I had had siblings, I would have been like, Mom,
- 7:41Speaker 4: what can I do?
- 7:42Speaker 2: You know?
- 7:42Speaker 4: How can I help? So no, I feel like that whatever,
- 7:47Speaker 4: throw that that out the window. The part that stands
- 7:51Speaker 4: out to me is the part about her and Dakota fighting. Obviously,
- 7:55Speaker 4: she's going to be fast if her parents are fighting. Anyone,
- 7:59Speaker 4: any child is going to be affected by their parents fighting.
- 8:03Speaker 4: So yes, that is very much so. But why isn't
- 8:06Speaker 4: this being held against Dakota. Yeah, Taylor is not the
- 8:10Speaker 4: only one fighting. I feel like it's got to be.
- 8:13Speaker 4: It's a two way street. So anyway, okay.
- 8:17Speaker 2: So then, ever, also sought comfort from Taylor's sister and
- 8:21Speaker 2: nanny during the home visits, and that Taylor became escalated
- 8:25Speaker 2: and disregulated when confronted about her progress. The petition also
- 8:31Speaker 2: alleges that Taylor's therapist told them the agency that she
- 8:36Speaker 2: had not begun meaningful treatment and did not seem invested
- 8:40Speaker 2: in the program and appeared to be attending therapy because
- 8:43Speaker 2: she felt forced to do so. This sounds like, yeah,
- 8:46Speaker 2: like that sounds like something. I feel like she isn't
- 8:49Speaker 2: fully invested in therapy right now, because I think she
- 8:52Speaker 2: would have gone off the phone, and like she would
- 8:54Speaker 2: have stayed at that rehab center for more than forty
- 8:57Speaker 2: eight hours. A source connected to Taylor is telling TMC
- 9:00Speaker 2: that the fact that this leaked speaks volumes on its
- 9:03Speaker 2: own juvenile court is private to protect the children's interests.
- 9:07Speaker 2: Leaking misinformation does the exact opposite. Someone is clearly acting
- 9:11Speaker 2: in their own interests, not the child's, and then based
- 9:15Speaker 2: on in incomplete information, it leaves dc fs's documented concerns
- 9:22Speaker 2: about the other side, huh, the other side which you
- 9:24Speaker 2: were just saying, which are on record in district court
- 9:30Speaker 2: and law enforcement in the juvenile court will weigh all
- 9:33Speaker 2: that in full. All right, So, yeah, Dakota and where
- 9:39Speaker 2: his DCFS leaks exactly.
- 9:45Speaker 3: Of his visitation.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Seriously, I think that they're both got bad problems.
- 9:51Speaker 4: She just posted an instagram on her feed. I think
- 9:54Speaker 4: this week, maybe a couple of days ago, I don't
- 9:56Speaker 4: know where someone was driving by our house. And then,
- 10:01Speaker 4: as you'll get into it, she was granted a restraining
- 10:04Speaker 4: order for him. So anyway, we'll get into that in
- 10:07Speaker 4: a second. But I just don't like Taylor.
- 10:09Speaker 2: If you have the dc FS in your home, why
- 10:15Speaker 2: are you If you're not able to stay on your.
- 10:16Speaker 3: Best behavior for those few hours? That kind of freaks
- 10:20Speaker 3: me out.
- 10:21Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean she's got a lot going on, you know,
- 10:25Speaker 4: and I feel like any of us would be really
- 10:28Speaker 4: super stressed out and dis regulated. I think she, obviously,
- 10:35Speaker 4: like we've been staying, needs to stay away from social media.
- 10:41Speaker 4: If you know, it's hard to put yourself in someone's
- 10:44Speaker 4: shoes that you've never like, I've never had an experience
- 10:48Speaker 4: with a toxic relationship like this.
- 10:51Speaker 2: And wait not to cut you off, but honestly, it's
- 10:53Speaker 2: like she's an addict and social media is her drug.
- 10:57Speaker 4: Well, I mean all of us. I like, who else
- 11:00Speaker 4: is addicted to social media?
- 11:02Speaker 3: I am. I'm scared of myself sometimes, like.
- 11:05Speaker 2: Totally, I'm like, I don't want to do it. It's
- 11:09Speaker 2: like I want to watch a TV show in my
- 11:11Speaker 2: time where I'm actually alone. But then I just keep
- 11:15Speaker 2: doing it and keep doing it. I'm like, oh, well,
- 11:16Speaker 2: you gotta go to bed now. You can't watch your
- 11:18Speaker 2: TV show because you just couldn't.
- 11:19Speaker 4: Totally stop and literally throw menopause in the mix. Because
- 11:23Speaker 4: I will go onto Instagram to find something, something very specific,
- 11:28Speaker 4: and then of course it's like just scroll and scroll,
- 11:31Speaker 4: and then fifteen thirty minutes later, I'm like, oh my gosh,
- 11:35Speaker 4: well the heck was I just doing?
- 11:37Speaker 3: So that's my day to day. It's so bad.
- 11:40Speaker 4: It's so bad. So I feel like she is one
- 11:43Speaker 4: of us. We are one and the same. We are
- 11:47Speaker 4: so many of us are addicted to our phones and
- 11:49Speaker 4: social media. And so I don't judge her for that,
- 11:53Speaker 4: because how can I judge when I'm the same person.
- 11:57Speaker 4: But I feel like, in this situation, situation, it would
- 12:01Speaker 4: definitely be a good idea for her to remove herself
- 12:06Speaker 4: from social media for the time being.
- 12:08Speaker 3: Yeah, the.
- 12:19Speaker 2: Next headline is Taylor Frankie Paul's lawyers react to family
- 12:23Speaker 2: services concerns about her parenting. So her lawyer team has
- 12:27Speaker 2: responded after child welfare officials raised these concerns about the
- 12:32Speaker 2: three kids. According to the legal documents that were published
- 12:35Speaker 2: by TMC on Wednesday, the DCFS filed a petition asking
- 12:41Speaker 2: for juvenile court to find her three children. You know,
- 12:44Speaker 2: we were just saying this that, like, are they abused,
- 12:47Speaker 2: neglected or dependent?
- 12:49Speaker 4: I also let me ask a question, what does the
- 12:51Speaker 4: dependent part mean?
- 12:52Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 12:54Speaker 2: I'm wondering if that means they're almost dependent on themselves
- 12:57Speaker 2: for survival. I think is that what are alluding to
- 13:01Speaker 2: with the creation of like the bottle of ever changing? Oh?
- 13:05Speaker 4: I don't know, because I'm like, all children are dependent.
- 13:07Speaker 4: I mean it's literally something you fill out on your taxes,
- 13:11Speaker 4: like are do you have dependents? Yes? I have dependence.
- 13:13Speaker 4: They're they're eighteen or.
- 13:16Speaker 2: Like they have to they are being they're dependent. Yeah,
- 13:20Speaker 2: I have no idea.
- 13:21Speaker 4: Isn't that weird?
- 13:21Speaker 3: That is that is weird?
- 13:23Speaker 4: But if it is a neglected part, clearly we get it.
- 13:26Speaker 4: But it says neglected or dependent, But.
- 13:29Speaker 3: Yeah, good or dependent?
- 13:31Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know what dependent means.
- 13:32Speaker 2: Anyway, go ahead, Okay, So the filming asked the judge
- 13:37Speaker 2: to the filing, asked the judge to order protective supervision services,
- 13:41Speaker 2: appoint and guardian to represent the children, and issue additional
- 13:47Speaker 2: orders deemed to be in their best interests. And TMZ
- 13:51Speaker 2: is also saying that once this was filed, they requested
- 13:56Speaker 2: and expedited hearing.
- 13:57Speaker 4: I think this is US weekly. Isn't this US Weekly?
- 14:00Speaker 2: Oh, it's US weekly, like repeating stuff I think from TMZ.
- 14:04Speaker 2: In response to the news of the filing, Taylor's legal
- 14:08Speaker 2: team shared this with US Weekly. See they don't want
- 14:11Speaker 2: to talk to TMZ. They don't want to talk to
- 14:13Speaker 2: TMC totally.
- 14:15Speaker 4: I mean, why would you. Yeah, they're doing her dirty.
- 14:18Speaker 2: It was recently decided that the ongoing custody actions would
- 14:21Speaker 2: be best suited for juvenile court, a common step for
- 14:25Speaker 2: families engaged in highly contentious, complex custody matters. Taylor is
- 14:30Speaker 2: not deterred by this transition. She welcomes the added structure
- 14:35Speaker 2: and oversight it provides, and looks forward to continuing her
- 14:38Speaker 2: progress towards normalizing custody and becoming the healthiest version of herself.
- 14:44Speaker 2: Taylor remains fully committed to doing whatever necessary to reach
- 14:47Speaker 2: that goal and will not be swayed from it. Taylor
- 14:49Speaker 2: appreciates the professionalism of the DCFS and its representatives.
- 14:54Speaker 4: Are you laughing because do I hear one of the
- 14:57Speaker 4: kids in the background, like doing one of those No,
- 15:00Speaker 4: they're just screaming instrument.
- 15:02Speaker 3: Okay, so they're just they're just being loud. I was laughing.
- 15:07Speaker 2: I was laughing at the fact that, like, it's very
- 15:09Speaker 2: much a suck upy response, But what else are you
- 15:13Speaker 2: gonna do?
- 15:13Speaker 3: That's what you gotta say.
- 15:15Speaker 4: Totally. And she.
- 15:20Speaker 2: Also posted on Instagram this week, like last week, this
- 15:24Speaker 2: week that today was extremely difficult, while there has been
- 15:27Speaker 2: at least twelve plus people here trying to make it harder.
- 15:31Speaker 2: Thank you God for revealing them. And they all and
- 15:35Speaker 2: I'm revealing them all want to be nothing. I guess
- 15:40Speaker 2: she means I want to be nothing like them. Yeah,
- 15:43Speaker 2: they bully. I defend myself, not the same. Pay attention
- 15:46Speaker 2: to how this plays out, and I trust. So that
- 15:48Speaker 2: goes into the final one. The final headline, which is
- 15:52Speaker 2: Taylor is granted restraining order against Dakota Mortenson's roommates and
- 15:59Speaker 2: best friends and Crew eaten, so Heather actually put Crew
- 16:06Speaker 2: on a reality show. This guy is also a little
- 16:09Speaker 2: bit fame hungry. And not to call us a casting director,
- 16:16Speaker 2: she's a casting director and she put him on one
- 16:21Speaker 2: of the dating shows a few years ago. It's just
- 16:23Speaker 2: interesting that the CODA would have like another like reality
- 16:25Speaker 2: personality as a roommate and also is the person that
- 16:29Speaker 2: is really.
- 16:30Speaker 3: Egging Taylor on in all of this, and now the
- 16:34Speaker 3: order has been signed for him to stop getting close
- 16:38Speaker 3: to her.
- 16:38Speaker 2: It's interesting though, because her son is there in their
- 16:44Speaker 2: house all the time because you know, I know, so
- 16:48Speaker 2: like he can't get close to well, we all know
- 16:51Speaker 2: that Taylor can't come close to that house. So I
- 16:53Speaker 2: guess it doesn't really make make much difference.
- 16:56Speaker 3: She can't do anything.
- 16:58Speaker 2: She could still have her child around this guy Crew
- 17:00Speaker 2: all the time.
- 17:01Speaker 4: That's what I mean. Can you imagine filing a restraining
- 17:04Speaker 4: order against someone who lives with your baby daddy and
- 17:10Speaker 4: is around your kids all the time like that is
- 17:14Speaker 4: I can't even fathom, like how I would feel about
- 17:17Speaker 4: the fact that this guy is essentially they said the
- 17:21Speaker 4: order of protection is for civil stalking, so he has
- 17:25Speaker 4: a restraining order against himself for stalking, and yet he
- 17:30Speaker 4: is around her children all the time like that alone,
- 17:35Speaker 4: right there, Just take that little tidbit, I would be
- 17:38Speaker 4: going bananas so crazy.
- 17:41Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, they keep putting her in these situations
- 17:43Speaker 2: to go more and more crazy. I feel like I
- 17:46Speaker 2: haven't seen this, honestly since Britney Spears, like since right me,
- 17:50Speaker 2: and like the two thousand and six era, you know,
- 17:54Speaker 2: the shaving the head era where it's just like she
- 17:55Speaker 2: couldn't stop being provoked. And I feel like she would
- 17:59Speaker 2: say that Federal Line may have had a part in that,
- 18:02Speaker 2: but a lot of it had to do with paparazzi
- 18:04Speaker 2: and the media just never ever leaving her alone totally.
- 18:08Speaker 2: And I just feel like she's being really provoked by
- 18:12Speaker 2: so many people right now. So like even if she
- 18:14Speaker 2: is mentally unhealthy, which she like basically admits that she is,
- 18:18Speaker 2: they just keep putting her in her situations to react,
- 18:21Speaker 2: right right.
- 18:22Speaker 4: They just want to poke the bear, and she's the
- 18:25Speaker 4: bear in this situation, and I just think it's too bad.
- 18:28Speaker 4: You know, there's only so much that one person can handle.
- 18:32Speaker 4: And I feel like, you know, before we got on
- 18:36Speaker 4: today and started recording, we were talking about how Taylor.
- 18:42Speaker 4: We feel like in you know, neither of us nor
- 18:47Speaker 4: had there are experts in psychology, so listen, we're this
- 18:51Speaker 4: is just our opinion. But in terms of social media
- 18:54Speaker 4: and just wanting to as a mom protect your children,
- 18:59Speaker 4: I just I feel like just prioritizing getting away from
- 19:09Speaker 4: the world of social media and focusing on your mental
- 19:14Speaker 4: health and that's it, you know, taking all other things
- 19:18Speaker 4: out of the picture, and just like either going to
- 19:24Speaker 4: retreat or I don't even know what that looks like.
- 19:27Speaker 4: But because her situation is so like volatile with these guys,
- 19:33Speaker 4: I don't know what that looks like, but I do. Oh,
- 19:37Speaker 4: I just want a wrapper in a big hug, and
- 19:41Speaker 4: You're like, I just want to wrap her up, and
- 19:46Speaker 4: I just want to be like, Okay, I'm putting you
- 19:48Speaker 4: on screen time. We're not going to be on our
- 19:50Speaker 4: phone anymore.
- 19:52Speaker 2: I know.
- 19:53Speaker 3: I'm just like, listen, Taylor, we can go to Hawaii
- 19:55Speaker 3: in a wonderful retruth center exactly, and they're going to
- 19:58Speaker 3: take away your phone.
- 19:59Speaker 2: But like you get to lie on the beach and
- 20:01Speaker 2: you get to it's gonna be such an expensive resort.
- 20:05Speaker 3: It's gonna be a resort, Okay, and.
- 20:08Speaker 2: You have to put everything that you would put on
- 20:10Speaker 2: social media in a journal.
- 20:12Speaker 3: Right exactly.
- 20:13Speaker 4: And I think she actually has posted about how much
- 20:16Speaker 4: she journals, so I know she does that, but I
- 20:19Speaker 4: feel like it's just I don't know, it's it's such
- 20:23Speaker 4: a volatile situation, it seems like, and I don't know
- 20:30Speaker 4: if the reason that she hasn't is because she doesn't
- 20:33Speaker 4: feel like she can be like away from her kids
- 20:36Speaker 4: for that long. But maybe in the long run, you know,
- 20:40Speaker 4: like maybe in the long run, it would allow her
- 20:44Speaker 4: to have more time with her because she would think
- 20:47Speaker 4: proving to a judge that she's doing the right stuff.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's what I was saying earlier, Like, I
- 20:53Speaker 2: know that the time away sounds like a lot, but
- 20:57Speaker 2: it'll make up for it in the future, because if not,
- 21:01Speaker 2: she's going to keep having these restrictions on the amount
- 21:03Speaker 2: of times she can be with her kids.
- 21:04Speaker 3: Anyway, she still even can't be with them a ton.
- 21:08Speaker 3: And in the case in the case, I get it.
- 21:11Speaker 3: I get it that people.
- 21:12Speaker 4: Even if it's once every two weeks or something like,
- 21:15Speaker 4: I'm sure you just live for that that time you
- 21:20Speaker 4: were counting down the days, like my my parents were divorced,
- 21:24Speaker 4: and it wasn't volatile, but they were divorced. And the
- 21:27Speaker 4: judge said, I had to go be with my dad
- 21:30Speaker 4: every other weekend, and please, I was a teenager. I
- 21:34Speaker 4: did not want anything to do with going to this
- 21:37Speaker 4: little like firm place that we had and hunting and
- 21:42Speaker 4: fishing and like what my dad wanted to do. I
- 21:44Speaker 4: just wanted to be with my friends. And I'm sure
- 21:47Speaker 4: he was like counting down the days to be able
- 21:49Speaker 4: to spend time with his daughter.
- 21:51Speaker 3: And that makes me cry.
- 21:55Speaker 4: That's hardbreak, it's hard. So I feel like I'm sure
- 21:59Speaker 4: she even though it's a limited amount of time, that
- 22:03Speaker 4: time is so precious. I'm sure to her that she
- 22:07Speaker 4: probably doesn't want to go anywhere because if there's an
- 22:10Speaker 4: off chance that she can see her kids, she wants
- 22:13Speaker 4: to be there to be able to see them.
- 22:14Speaker 3: I don't know, I totally totally get it. It's easier
- 22:18Speaker 3: said than done. Here. I am saying, go into the.
- 22:20Speaker 2: Hawaii, and then people will ask me like will you
- 22:25Speaker 2: do this show or that show? I'll just say as traders,
- 22:29Speaker 2: like I'm not asked being asked to do traders, but
- 22:31Speaker 2: people are always asking me like would I do traders,
- 22:33Speaker 2: And I'm like, well, I hear that you have to
- 22:36Speaker 2: be away for your kids from like a month. Yeah,
- 22:40Speaker 2: and that the the phone time is very limited. It's
- 22:44Speaker 2: not like one of those reality shows where you can
- 22:46Speaker 2: like pop in an out off your phone pretty frequently
- 22:48Speaker 2: throughout the day.
- 22:49Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 22:50Speaker 2: And I'm like, and that really prevents me from saying
- 22:53Speaker 2: that I feel like I could do it totally. Yeah.
- 22:56Speaker 3: So I mean that is that comparison is absolutely.
- 22:59Speaker 2: Not bar retailer, but it's like, oh, huge show, big.
- 23:05Speaker 3: Money from it.
- 23:06Speaker 2: Like, ah, I don't know if I can do it.
- 23:09Speaker 4: Yeah, because you would miss your children. So I know
- 23:14Speaker 4: she misses her kids. You know, I've met her once
- 23:17Speaker 4: and I reach out on social when she posts stuff
- 23:21Speaker 4: and just try to send you know, positivity her way.
- 23:26Speaker 4: So I don't It's not like I've spent a lot
- 23:29Speaker 4: of time with her. But if I do know anything,
- 23:31Speaker 4: I know that she loves being a mom and it
- 23:34Speaker 4: would be really brutal to be separated from your kids.
- 23:38Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, oh so sad, it's all sucky.
- 23:45Speaker 3: Wow, we are, you know, wishing her the best and hopefully.
- 23:53Speaker 2: We figure out a way out of this mess.
- 24:07Speaker 4: Does the show air? What do you think, do you
- 24:09Speaker 4: think it's gonna air?
- 24:10Speaker 3: No? I thought we were over this.
- 24:12Speaker 2: No, I think this is done. This has done sloppy.
- 24:15Speaker 2: But remember a couple of months ago, like not even
- 24:18Speaker 2: a couple months ago, a couple weeks ago, we were like,
- 24:20Speaker 2: oh yeah, it'll probably air now and then and then
- 24:23Speaker 2: it's almost like almost like Dakota had like a censor
- 24:28Speaker 2: going off, like wow, this might air, and he's like
- 24:31Speaker 2: time to.
- 24:33Speaker 4: I know. The timing of it all just makes me
- 24:36Speaker 4: sick to my stomach, Like every single time, it's just
- 24:41Speaker 4: it's awful. I how can you not think that that's
- 24:45Speaker 4: the case, because every time that the show is about
- 24:49Speaker 4: to air, like, you know, let's just throw more mud
- 24:54Speaker 4: in the water. You know, I really wanted it to air,
- 25:00Speaker 4: and I was very hopeful. I think, yeah, I think
- 25:03Speaker 4: this might have been the straw that broke the Bachelor's back. Yeah,
- 25:08Speaker 4: you know, Unfortunately, I am hopeful though that. You know,
- 25:13Speaker 4: there have been I think on Bachelor Happy Hour they
- 25:16Speaker 4: were talking about how they're casting and maybe it was
- 25:18Speaker 4: on social media whatever for Bachelor. So hopefully they'll move
- 25:24Speaker 4: forward with that.
- 25:25Speaker 2: It's a thing like it's going to be there's gonna
- 25:27Speaker 2: be the Bachelor, And you know how they could like
- 25:30Speaker 2: kind of weave this in that this is actually interesting.
- 25:33Speaker 2: I just keep up with an interesting thought, Trista. If
- 25:36Speaker 2: they go with say her runner up as the bachelor, yeah,
- 25:42Speaker 2: they could sprinkle in a lot of scenes of him
- 25:46Speaker 2: throughout the season, so you get a taste never before seen.
- 25:49Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 25:49Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's interesting and that'll bring a lot of
- 25:52Speaker 3: viewers in.
- 25:54Speaker 4: I agree, I like that actually a lot. I'm sure
- 25:57Speaker 4: they've I'm sure they've come up with that, but yes,
- 26:00Speaker 4: do you think it will be one of her guys?
- 26:02Speaker 4: I would hope. So I hope it will be I think.
- 26:08Speaker 4: And you know, also they can bring in all the
- 26:10Speaker 4: guys to be part of it somehow, like on a
- 26:14Speaker 4: date or or like. So for my season, I know
- 26:18Speaker 4: people don't remember this because it was so long ago,
- 26:20Speaker 4: but I had three friends come and they lived with
- 26:25Speaker 4: the guys, and they gave me feedback on and they
- 26:30Speaker 4: hung out with them. They gave me feedback on who
- 26:33Speaker 4: they liked, and I think they picked picked one of
- 26:36Speaker 4: them for a date. I can't remember who it was
- 26:38Speaker 4: but or what date it was, but they were so
- 26:43Speaker 4: it was such an integral part of my journey and
- 26:47Speaker 4: because we haven't seen the guys from her season, I
- 26:52Speaker 4: would hope that if they do bring her chosen one
- 26:56Speaker 4: in that her chosen one, you think it's gonna be
- 27:00Speaker 4: number two.
- 27:01Speaker 3: Not I thought i'd be number two.
- 27:03Speaker 2: The chosen one would be an interesting should I use
- 27:07Speaker 2: his name?
- 27:08Speaker 5: Heather, it's out there to spoiler people, like it's out there.
- 27:14Speaker 2: If it's Shane who's the runner up, I feel like
- 27:16Speaker 2: it makes more sense. If it's Doug, then it's gonna
- 27:19Speaker 2: be like Doug, who is supposedly number one, It's gonna
- 27:23Speaker 2: be like.
- 27:23Speaker 3: Oh, hey, so you're your relationship with Taylor, Like how
- 27:28Speaker 3: did it end? What happened?
- 27:31Speaker 2: Like?
- 27:31Speaker 3: I just think you're continuing the.
- 27:33Speaker 2: Slop show a little bit too much if you pick
- 27:35Speaker 2: the guy that she was actually with for a while
- 27:38Speaker 2: and the guy that she's posted on and off the
- 27:41Speaker 2: past couple minds. But Doug is super hot, Shane's cute two,
- 27:47Speaker 2: and it's it's yeah, I don't think it could be.
- 27:50Speaker 4: I think either or either or work.
- 27:52Speaker 3: You think either or works. I don't know. I think
- 27:55Speaker 3: picking Doug might be sloppy.
- 27:57Speaker 4: Well, I see what you're saying. I feel like I
- 28:00Speaker 4: just want to have somebody from her season as the Bachelor,
- 28:03Speaker 4: and then bring in the guys for something. I don't
- 28:06Speaker 4: know what it is, but bringing the guys for something
- 28:08Speaker 4: so that we can actually get to know them.
- 28:10Speaker 2: Shane is currently or is filming the Hulu Mob Show.
- 28:14Speaker 4: What's a mob show?
- 28:15Speaker 2: I don't know how there. You got to know these things.
- 28:17Speaker 2: You're the casting director here.
- 28:18Speaker 5: It's a game show, guys that's going to be out
- 28:21Speaker 5: with different reality stars from that's what. Remember when we
- 28:24Speaker 5: reported on Shane hanging out with Rachel Kirconnell and is
- 28:28Speaker 5: she on there? So Rachel isn't rumored. But who's the
- 28:31Speaker 5: other one that they were with? Who was her friend?
- 28:33Speaker 4: Maria?
- 28:34Speaker 3: Oh yeah Maria.
- 28:35Speaker 5: So Maria is the one that's supposed to be.
- 28:37Speaker 4: On Oh yes, I did see.
- 28:40Speaker 5: And so is freaking Bella from Love Overboard, who is
- 28:45Speaker 5: very Ashley I Kinnetti, like very cry face, which we
- 28:50Speaker 5: love on that show. So yeah, it's like they're kind
- 28:54Speaker 5: of what it sounds like, is their kind of version
- 28:56Speaker 5: of Traders on Hulu. Demi Demiski me from Secret Lives
- 29:01Speaker 5: and Mormon Wives, some other names are out there that
- 29:04Speaker 5: are going to be a part of it.
- 29:06Speaker 2: So to me, that's their way of being, like, hey,
- 29:08Speaker 2: learn about Shane Taylor.
- 29:10Speaker 5: From I think well, I think it was he's the
- 29:13Speaker 5: runner up and we liked him, so now we're giving
- 29:16Speaker 5: him another shot. I think that would have been weird
- 29:18Speaker 5: to have him go from Bachelorette mob and then.
- 29:21Speaker 3: Go be the Bachelor.
- 29:22Speaker 5: That's a lot to be exposure in what would have
- 29:26Speaker 5: been the span of a year.
- 29:27Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know.
- 29:29Speaker 2: I think they could have been their way of being, like,
- 29:31Speaker 2: we want this guy's face out there to test him out.
- 29:34Speaker 3: I mean, look at Nick Bayel, I know, and Colton
- 29:37Speaker 3: was also yeah a long time so I mean, could happen?
- 29:41Speaker 3: Could happen already already?
- 29:43Speaker 2: Okay, guys, Well well, I'm sure we'll have more headlines
- 29:46Speaker 2: to talk about next week.
- 29:48Speaker 3: Until then, we love you so much. I've been Ashley,
- 29:52Speaker 3: I've been interested. Bye.
