- 0:00Speaker 1: This is the Ben and Ashley I Almost Famous podcast
- 0:03Speaker 1: with on our radio.
- 0:05Speaker 2: It's time for headlines.
- 0:07Speaker 3: This is the Almostsumo's podcast and we are pumped to have
- 0:10Speaker 3: Ashley here to break them all down for us. She
- 0:13Speaker 3: knows them all detailed, sentence by sentence. Ashley, what's going on?
- 0:18Speaker 4: Hey, let's talk about the wedding of the week because
- 0:22Speaker 4: there's been a lot of bachelor weddings lately.
- 0:25Speaker 3: Here's the headline. It's Bachelor and Paradises. Kenny and Mary
- 0:29Speaker 3: are married inside the Puerto Rico wedding so just everybody knows.
- 0:34Speaker 3: We've recorded an episode with the two of them, so
- 0:35Speaker 3: if you want some more details from their own mouth,
- 0:38Speaker 3: can go back and listen to that episode as well.
- 0:40Speaker 2: But here's the headline. That is taking over a Bachelor Nation.
- 0:43Speaker 4: HM.
- 0:43Speaker 5: So this brief synopsis.
- 0:45Speaker 4: Guys that got married in front of sixty five guests
- 0:48Speaker 4: in Puerto Rico. She got walked down the aisle by
- 0:52Speaker 4: her veteran dad on Veterans Day and he was in
- 0:54Speaker 4: full his full military suits. And they are going to
- 0:59Speaker 4: have a wedding later on in twenty twenty four where
- 1:03Speaker 4: they have all their friends, including Bachelor Nation. But this
- 1:06Speaker 4: one was a little bit more intimate best friends and family,
- 1:10Speaker 4: and Mariy shares some wedding dressed drama, to say the least,
- 1:15Speaker 4: on our podcast with them.
- 1:18Speaker 3: The next headline is about Rachel Lindsay. Now, I'm so
- 1:21Speaker 3: glad this is a headline this week.
- 1:23Speaker 5: I love this headline too well.
- 1:25Speaker 3: The reasoning is because every time I post anything on
- 1:27Speaker 3: social media now there's always this like scammer robot bot
- 1:30Speaker 3: that just like has no picture, like two followers that says,
- 1:33Speaker 3: why don't you guys talk about Rachel and Brian breaking up?
- 1:36Speaker 3: And I was like, well, because I didn't know they
- 1:37Speaker 3: were or are they or.
- 1:38Speaker 5: They stilly two under my stuff.
- 1:41Speaker 2: It's weird.
- 1:41Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on, but here is a
- 1:43Speaker 3: headline that will give us some clarity.
- 1:45Speaker 2: Bachelor Nations.
- 1:46Speaker 3: Rachel Lindsay details family plans and journey with husband Brian.
- 1:50Speaker 5: That bot that.
- 1:51Speaker 4: Writes underneath our pictures, they keep saying like they are
- 1:56Speaker 4: breaking up because she wants she doesn't want kids anymore,
- 2:00Speaker 4: that's what this. It's not true. They're actually seemingly trying
- 2:07Speaker 4: to have children. And I'm glad that Rachel's talking about this.
- 2:11Speaker 4: This is why I like the headline because she's she's
- 2:15Speaker 4: asked at this red carpet event like kids in the future,
- 2:17Speaker 4: and she goes, it's something that we want.
- 2:20Speaker 5: It's been harder than I thought it would be. We're trying.
- 2:24Speaker 5: You think, oh, yeah, I'm ready, I'll make it happen,
- 2:27Speaker 5: but it's just been a little bit more difficult for us.
- 2:30Speaker 5: But we're definitely starting the process.
- 2:33Speaker 4: Okay, covers it all then, So it's like they're still
- 2:36Speaker 4: together then, yeah, And just.
- 2:38Speaker 5: Because they don't have kids now doesn't mean they're not
- 2:41Speaker 5: trying to have children.
- 2:43Speaker 3: So it's like rude, and let's not jump to conclusions
- 2:47Speaker 3: that they broke up just because of a rumor that
- 2:51Speaker 3: started from a robot.
- 2:52Speaker 2: I mean, they're obviously still together. She's talking about it.
- 2:56Speaker 4: They posted Halloween pictures together, they've been very vocal about
- 2:58Speaker 4: the fact that they don't want to really share the
- 3:00Speaker 4: relationship on social media. And just one more little comment
- 3:03Speaker 4: about just trying to conceive. It's like, yeah, guess what,
- 3:07Speaker 4: it doesn't just take one time. Usually it often takes
- 3:11Speaker 4: more than three months, and then it is quote normal
- 3:16Speaker 4: for up to a year. You know, it's not infertility
- 3:21Speaker 4: for a year, and you know, let's just back off
- 3:23Speaker 4: these these.
- 3:24Speaker 5: Lady's all right.
- 3:25Speaker 3: Next headline is this Bachelor Nation's Carl Waddell was not
- 3:29Speaker 3: a fan of what she quotes extra college classmate Lady Gaga.
- 3:35Speaker 2: Carly says she drove me crazy.
- 3:37Speaker 4: Guys, I am friends with Carly, Okay, love. Carly did
- 3:42Speaker 4: not love this conversation. I don't know why I'm so
- 3:46Speaker 4: defensive with Lady Gaga, who I have never met in
- 3:48Speaker 4: my life. I just felt like.
- 3:52Speaker 5: Carly could have kept this one to herself.
- 3:55Speaker 4: Like Lady Gaga is an absolute icon, and she just
- 4:00Speaker 4: talks about how she annoyed her.
- 4:01Speaker 5: At lunch at NYU, she said that.
- 4:05Speaker 4: She would sit on the piano every single day and
- 4:07Speaker 4: just play and sing wicked at the top of her lungs,
- 4:10Speaker 4: and we were just all trying to eat lunch. It
- 4:12Speaker 4: was break time, and we were like forced to listen
- 4:15Speaker 4: to her. See a lot of this is about language.
- 4:18Speaker 4: If she was just like, oh my gosh, I had
- 4:20Speaker 4: class with her and she would sing at the top
- 4:22Speaker 4: of her lungs during lunch, she was like it was
- 4:25Speaker 4: something to experience that.
- 4:27Speaker 5: It's just the fact that she just seems.
- 4:29Speaker 4: A little a little bitter about it, Like she really
- 4:35Speaker 4: it sounds like she didn't like her, okay, And then
- 4:37Speaker 4: she said we would just try to enjoy a break.
- 4:40Speaker 4: I just wanted to eat my sandwich, and so I
- 4:42Speaker 4: used to eat in the hallway.
- 4:44Speaker 5: She was driving me nuts.
- 4:46Speaker 4: She said that she would wear these really tight ridiculous
- 4:49Speaker 4: She said she would wear these really tight leotards and
- 4:53Speaker 4: she had really big boobs that they were coming out
- 4:56Speaker 4: and she was so ridiculous. And when asked if she
- 5:02Speaker 4: was noticeably better than the other students, Carly said no.
- 5:08Speaker 5: She said, I mean she.
- 5:10Speaker 4: Was one of the good ones, but I wouldn't have
- 5:12Speaker 4: ever said she's like so above, but now she's so above.
- 5:18Speaker 5: What's your take?
- 5:20Speaker 3: My take is if I went to college and the
- 5:23Speaker 3: most like the person that drove me the craziest end
- 5:25Speaker 3: up becoming like multi platinum billionaire millionaire, Like I would
- 5:31Speaker 3: be like, dang it, that's wild. That's like a big
- 5:34Speaker 3: kick to my you know, front side, And the the
- 5:40Speaker 3: thought I would have personally would just be it would
- 5:43Speaker 3: kind of be a lesson for me on you know,
- 5:46Speaker 3: kind of quick to judgment is like, hey, yeah, I is.
- 5:49Speaker 3: This person is very passionate about the arts, and so
- 5:51Speaker 3: they were just singing all the time. It's kind of
- 5:53Speaker 3: who Lady Gaga state like, it's not like her. It's
- 5:56Speaker 3: not like people read this and like, yeah, I don't
- 5:58Speaker 3: expect Lady Gagata be sitting down a piano. Well, I
- 6:00Speaker 3: would probably say at this point, yeah, at this point
- 6:03Speaker 3: in my life, what I would probably say would be,
- 6:05Speaker 3: how crazy is it that every day at lunch I
- 6:07Speaker 3: got a free concert from Lady Gaga? I know, Like
- 6:10Speaker 3: I I just think that's probably would have been a
- 6:13Speaker 3: better way to say it.
- 6:16Speaker 4: You guys know that I'm not above talking, like I
- 6:19Speaker 4: will talk. I just don't like talking Lady Gaga, who
- 6:23Speaker 4: I just have like loved and respected so long, for
- 6:26Speaker 4: so long, and I don't know I didn't Additionally, you know,
- 6:29Speaker 4: she she knew her personally, so maybe she just felt
- 6:31Speaker 4: a little bit more ansty towards her.
- 6:32Speaker 5: But it's fine.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Do you think in college she was Lady Gaga?
- 6:35Speaker 4: She was Stephanie. She referred to herself. Carly refers to
- 6:38Speaker 4: her as Stephanie in the interview.
- 6:41Speaker 3: I wish she just would have gone all out been like, yeah,
- 6:43Speaker 3: you can refer to me as lady.
- 6:56Speaker 2: Hey.
- 6:56Speaker 3: Gary Turner is the current Golden Bachelor is weary uh
- 7:00Speaker 3: the Golden Bachelor in Paradise, but he says his suitors
- 7:03Speaker 3: would have the time of their lives.
- 7:06Speaker 4: He says, I don't know if that's something I would support,
- 7:11Speaker 4: I just so, but I do know that there's an
- 7:14Speaker 4: awful lot of individuals from the Golden Bachelor that would
- 7:17Speaker 4: be fantastic on the beach.
- 7:19Speaker 5: They would have the time of their lives.
- 7:23Speaker 4: But that's all he's got to say about that.
- 7:27Speaker 3: He's all he's got. I would love to see it.
- 7:29Speaker 3: I don't think it's going to happen, but I'd love
- 7:30Speaker 3: to see it. Well, more love and more good stories here.

- 9:49Speaker 3: Final headline of the day is the Bachelor in Paradise's
- 9:54Speaker 3: Cat Izzo addresses her controversial behavior and what she asks
- 9:59Speaker 3: for for there's a call for kindness.
- 10:03Speaker 4: Okay, watching this week's episode, I just wanted to also
- 10:07Speaker 4: get on here and knowing that she had said this
- 10:08Speaker 4: earlier in the week. Kat has been absolutely outrageous and
- 10:13Speaker 4: she's definitely made some like questionable moves, as we all
- 10:17Speaker 4: do in Paradise, but I genuinely like her. There's something
- 10:21Speaker 4: about her that's like really fun for me to watch.
- 10:24Speaker 4: She reminds me of an old friend that I had.
- 10:26Speaker 4: Over the top dramatic but very easily excitable, but like
- 10:32Speaker 4: you just overall like the person, and that is exactly
- 10:34Speaker 4: a Cat. I'm not saying she's gonna be an easy
- 10:36Speaker 4: partner to a man one day, nor am I not
- 10:40Speaker 4: at all. Could talk to Jared about that, but I
- 10:44Speaker 4: really like Cat and I think and that's that's all
- 10:49Speaker 4: I got it. I personally have to say. This is
- 10:51Speaker 4: what Kat had to say on her Instagram on Reality TV.
- 10:54Speaker 4: Being open and vulnerable is tough, and it shows like
- 10:57Speaker 4: every and it shows that, like everyone else, we have
- 11:01Speaker 4: these missteps in life.
- 11:03Speaker 5: We are all genuine people.
- 11:04Speaker 4: And I apologize if my actions on the show inadvertedly
- 11:07Speaker 4: hurt others an unfiltered lens, In the unfiltered lens of
- 11:13Speaker 4: Reality TV, where vulnerability is both a strength and struggle,
- 11:17Speaker 4: I feel you, a girl. It's a reminder that as humans,
- 11:21Speaker 4: we are bound to make mistakes along this unpredictable journey.
- 11:26Speaker 4: Sharing our lives with the world takes a toll on
- 11:29Speaker 4: our mental well being. This is a call for understanding
- 11:32Speaker 4: and kindness. Not as victims or villains. I like the
- 11:35Speaker 4: way she said that, but as people on paths to
- 11:38Speaker 4: figuring out their own stories. Let's recognize our shared vulnerability
- 11:43Speaker 4: as humans and encourage growth, learning and understanding as we
- 11:47Speaker 4: deal with our imperfections. I think that's really well written.
- 11:50Speaker 3: It is well written. I do think you know, we've
- 11:54Speaker 3: always said it. Your behavior on these shows sometimes can
- 11:57Speaker 3: teach you a lot about yourself. You've never really watched
- 12:00Speaker 3: yourself or watch the reactions that people have to your behavior,
- 12:03Speaker 3: and I think watching yourself on The Bachelor, Bachelor or
- 12:07Speaker 3: other reality shows can really be a time to learn
- 12:10Speaker 3: about Hey, Yeah, I didn't know that I had this
- 12:13Speaker 3: tendency or I didn't know that the what I was
- 12:15Speaker 3: saying was coming off so poorly. And so the hope
- 12:17Speaker 3: here is that people just always learn grow and become
- 12:20Speaker 3: like a better, less, maybe hurtful human on the back
- 12:25Speaker 3: end of this. Sometimes they don't, sometimes they do. But
- 12:28Speaker 3: in Cat's case, let's let, you know, let's celebrate the
- 12:31Speaker 3: fact that she's you know, admitting to it, watching it,
- 12:35Speaker 3: and now we can be nice to her, you know,
- 12:37Speaker 3: because who wants to be you know, pounded on when
- 12:40Speaker 3: you're probably already hurting from the you know, experiences on
- 12:42Speaker 3: the show.
- 12:43Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, Well, Ben and I have a lot.
