0:00
Speaker 1: This is the Ben and Ashley I almost famous podcast
0:03
Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio everybody.
0:06
Speaker 2: It's Frankie Friday. Goodness gracious, what an idea our producers
0:11
Speaker 2: had to do Frankie Fridays. As we get ready for
0:16
Speaker 2: I have actually an inside source today actually telling me
0:19
Speaker 2: this is that me. No, it's not you. I think
0:23
Speaker 2: I would drop your name. I can't drop this person's name.
0:26
Speaker 2: But somebody who works on the show has a high
0:31
Speaker 2: position on the show still to this day texted me,
0:35
Speaker 2: which is very nice. I appreciated it, and I we
0:38
Speaker 2: just kind of text them back and forth and I said, Hey,
0:42
Speaker 2: how is work and they said it's fantastic. This upcoming
0:47
Speaker 2: season of the Bachelorette is epic.
0:49
Speaker 3: Oh great, Yeah, they haven't said that in a while.
0:52
Speaker 2: I know, I know put their name behind it. So
0:55
Speaker 2: at some point we'll have to get that person on
0:57
Speaker 2: to talk more in detail about maybe what we can expect.
0:59
Speaker 2: But Frankie is a day where we break down everything
1:02
Speaker 2: happening that we know of in Taylor, Frankie Paul's life
1:06
Speaker 2: as we prepare for the next season of the Bachelorette.
1:08
Speaker 2: But before we get started, I need your help, Ashley,
1:10
Speaker 2: friend of friend.
1:11
Speaker 3: I would love it, Ben, I'd love to help.
1:13
Speaker 2: There's two things we want to talk about today. One
1:16
Speaker 2: I was just discussing before we got on air about
1:18
Speaker 2: my insecurities with hair. We'll talk about that in a
1:21
Speaker 2: little bit, but before we dive into that conversation, I
1:25
Speaker 2: need human help. And we get messages from you listeners
1:29
Speaker 2: that are greatly appreciated, oftentimes giving us feedback on something
1:32
Speaker 2: we said, or opinion we had, or something maybe we
1:34
Speaker 2: didn't say. And I'd take all the feedback I can get.
1:37
Speaker 2: Right now, I'm having a tough day and I don't
1:40
Speaker 2: know why. It's not a big deal. It's not the
1:41
Speaker 2: biggest deal in the world. But I Every Wednesday, we
1:45
Speaker 2: have a call with a buddy of mine who has als.
1:48
Speaker 2: We've talked about him before, you know his name. His
1:50
Speaker 2: name is Brandon. We do this zoom call with people
1:53
Speaker 2: from all over the country, like buddies of his, and
1:55
Speaker 2: we just pretty much talk about life. I hope those
1:57
Speaker 2: notes from that meet, Yeah, I hope the notes from
1:59
Speaker 2: that meeting never get put into the public because they're wild.
2:06
Speaker 2: But I had a moment today and I've been having
2:10
Speaker 2: these I want to say consistently, but they happened to
2:13
Speaker 2: me every once in a while, especially in social situations
2:17
Speaker 2: where I have something I need to tell everybody, Like
2:20
Speaker 2: somebody brings says something and I'm like, oh my gosh,
2:22
Speaker 2: that reminds me of this thing that I need to
2:25
Speaker 2: talk about. But that person's talking, so I'll wait, and
2:28
Speaker 2: then I completely forget what I want to talk ask about.
2:31
Speaker 2: And it is haunting me today. Actually, I've had calls
2:34
Speaker 2: all day, I've been on meetings all day, and I
2:36
Speaker 2: cannot get this out of my head. I've gone on
2:37
Speaker 2: a walks, I've prayed, I've listened to music. I don't
2:40
Speaker 2: know if I needed to like take a few shots
2:43
Speaker 2: of something just to get my mind clear. But like
2:45
Speaker 2: it is driving me insane, and it's like really haunting me.
2:50
Speaker 3: There's so much here so my friends, well, on my
2:55
Speaker 3: other podcast, I don't get it. We were such interrupters.
2:58
Speaker 3: We called ourselves interrupters because we couldn't possibly continue let
3:03
Speaker 3: conversation continue without getting that thought out, because we were
3:07
Speaker 3: in such fear that we would forget about what we
3:10
Speaker 3: were gonna say. And like, really, I should probably just
3:13
Speaker 3: had a notepad right next to me. But just in
3:15
Speaker 3: general friend conversations especially I think with the women we
3:20
Speaker 3: tend to be. There are two types of people I've
3:22
Speaker 3: seen Instagram reels and stuff like this. People who are
3:25
Speaker 3: interrupters that absolutely have no problem interrupting, and it's like
3:31
Speaker 3: out of just friendship, you know, blah, And then they
3:35
Speaker 3: would never take that as to be like something that's
3:38
Speaker 3: offensive if somebody cuts them off. And then there are
3:41
Speaker 3: people who are very offended when they're not able to
3:44
Speaker 3: be finished. And a lot of the times friendship's between
3:47
Speaker 3: interrupters and non interrupters. It's hard, and you can see
3:50
Speaker 3: on this podcast, I'm definitely an interrupter because I'm always stressed,
3:54
Speaker 3: I'm gonna lose my thought, and I also don't want
3:56
Speaker 3: I would think it would be rude if I were to,
4:00
Speaker 3: which is crazy. You let me know, is this what
4:02
Speaker 3: you would prefer me just kind of go into the
4:06
Speaker 3: note section of my computer and start tapping during your
4:10
Speaker 3: completed thought or should I continue to say it? Because
4:14
Speaker 3: to me, I guess the tapping seems more distracting than
4:17
Speaker 3: you'd be like, oh.
4:18
Speaker 2: My god, yeah, you know it's I think in a friendship,
4:25
Speaker 2: if we weren't recording episodes, that should be at least
4:29
Speaker 2: pleasing to the audience sphere at some level. Yeah, then interrupting,
4:34
Speaker 2: I don't think works because you don't want me to
4:37
Speaker 2: be going off and off on my soapboxes that I do,
4:40
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, like you interrupt and then
4:42
Speaker 2: my train of thought gets messed up or I don't
4:45
Speaker 2: get to finish my thoughts, so you like interrupt me
4:47
Speaker 2: at a moment where it's maybe most like contentious and
4:51
Speaker 2: I don't get to actually close out the loop, so
4:53
Speaker 2: that maybe it makes more sense.
4:55
Speaker 3: So I'm going to keep a notepad next to me
4:57
Speaker 3: from now on.
4:58
Speaker 2: I guess my question. I do that with you. I
5:01
Speaker 2: have usually a scrap piece of paper. Here are all
5:04
Speaker 2: write questions down. I guess here's where I come into
5:08
Speaker 2: this issue at because it does happen to me, and
5:12
Speaker 2: it is something that I cannot get out of my
5:14
Speaker 2: head all day long, and then at two am usually
5:18
Speaker 2: like that thought comes back and I'm like, oh, that's
5:20
Speaker 2: what I wanted to say. How do I not and
5:24
Speaker 2: I have this Google search up right now. I've tried
5:26
Speaker 2: everything today. Goodness gracious, how I don't let intrusive thoughts
5:30
Speaker 2: haunt me? Or how I can the article that I'm
5:36
Speaker 2: about to read is called how to Survive a cringe attack,
5:39
Speaker 2: the Science and Psychology of Embarrassing moments. So it's a
5:43
Speaker 2: very similar feeling ashually for me when I do something
5:47
Speaker 2: embarrassing and I lay in bed at night and I
5:50
Speaker 2: like stick my head into the pill, and I'm like
5:52
Speaker 2: why did I say that? And then sometimes like even
5:53
Speaker 2: I have a physical reaction to it, like I jerk,
5:56
Speaker 2: like WHOA, what did I do that? I have that
6:00
Speaker 2: the same to me feeling kind of right now, and
6:02
Speaker 2: I'm wondering, how do you deal? Like I don't know
6:04
Speaker 2: if getting over it is necessarily the word I want
6:06
Speaker 2: to use, but like, how do you deal with this thing?
6:10
Speaker 2: Because I'm sure I'm not the only one.
6:12
Speaker 3: So my initial question to you is, actually, was it
6:15
Speaker 3: the fact that you interrupted that you felt weird about
6:18
Speaker 3: all day that was haunting you? Or was it the
6:20
Speaker 3: fact that you had a thought that you forgot and
6:23
Speaker 3: you were so frustrated that was lingering and you could
6:26
Speaker 3: figure Okay, So there's two whole separate conversations here, Yeah,
6:30
Speaker 3: interrupting the one. The other one is, yes, that feeling
6:34
Speaker 3: of forgetting your thought can really haunt you for hours afterward.
6:40
Speaker 3: This happened with me the other day at dinner with
6:43
Speaker 3: Caitlin and Becca, and it was like I just sat
6:46
Speaker 3: there feeling incomplete for quite some time.
6:49
Speaker 2: You just put a great word to this. I feel
6:52
Speaker 2: incomplete right now, Ashley. I feel like I am not
6:56
Speaker 2: my full excel.
6:58
Speaker 3: Yes, the other part of you is searching for that thought.
7:02
Speaker 2: So I don't know. Hey, listeners right in, I need
7:06
Speaker 2: your help. It's usually a consensus of people that end
7:10
Speaker 2: up speaking to this. I think I've brought up my
7:13
Speaker 2: physical reaction to some embarrassing moments or even like traumatic moments.
7:18
Speaker 2: I even will have bad dreams sometimes about like maybe
7:23
Speaker 2: just and I went on a walk and a car
7:25
Speaker 2: drove by really fast, and I get mad at these
7:28
Speaker 2: cars these days because we usually have Winny with us
7:31
Speaker 2: and Waylan. You know, isn't always great when it comes
7:34
Speaker 2: to a car flying by, and like if it wasn't
7:36
Speaker 2: for me reacting in that split second, somebody gets hurt
7:40
Speaker 2: and I'll lay in bed and I'll have like this
7:41
Speaker 2: jerky reaction to it. I know there's a word for it.
7:44
Speaker 2: I know somebody out there listening could be like, yes,
7:46
Speaker 2: this is what's happening. I need advice. I need your help.
7:49
Speaker 2: The second topic we're going to talk to about today
7:51
Speaker 2: before we get into Franky Friday's is my relationship with hair.
7:53
Speaker 2: The producers on the show commented that my beard this week,
7:58
Speaker 2: I let my beer grow out. I got a little
8:00
Speaker 2: lazy during the holidays, that's fine, looked extra dark and
8:03
Speaker 2: wondered why, Well, I didn't die anything. I just think
8:06
Speaker 2: it might have been the shadows at the angle. But
8:10
Speaker 2: my relationship with hair has always been something that I
8:12
Speaker 2: think is one of my insecurities. So years ago, when
8:16
Speaker 2: we started this show, I thought I was going to
8:18
Speaker 2: be bald by thirty five. Well, I haven't lost I
8:21
Speaker 2: haven't lost any hair in like ten years. We knock
8:25
Speaker 2: on wood, you know, thank the good Lord above, whateveryone
8:28
Speaker 2: to do. I'm feeling pretty good about that. But there's
8:32
Speaker 2: parts of my body I want more hair on, like
8:34
Speaker 2: my head and my beard. I have a patchy beard.
8:38
Speaker 2: It is a little patchy on the one side. And
8:40
Speaker 2: then there's so many parts of my body. I remember
8:42
Speaker 2: in high school, actually I would spend so much time
8:46
Speaker 2: manicuring myself to not have hair in certain parts of
8:50
Speaker 2: my body that I was so concerned that I would
8:52
Speaker 2: have like that sweater, like like i'd have a sweater
8:57
Speaker 2: when I took off a T shirt at the beach,
8:59
Speaker 2: it was I'm very fearful of that. I still have
9:02
Speaker 2: that fear even though I.
9:03
Speaker 3: Don't happening anymore. But I do feel like men get
9:08
Speaker 3: hairier like bodies as they get older.
9:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe just gets longer.
9:13
Speaker 3: Maybe they just don't care anymore.
9:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, we kind of give up. But I work out
9:17
Speaker 2: in this workout class every morning, and it's very like acceptable,
9:21
Speaker 2: Like the girls are in like you know, sports bronze
9:23
Speaker 2: and like short shorts because it's a heated room, and
9:26
Speaker 2: so it's very acceptable for the men to take off
9:28
Speaker 2: their shirts when they work out because it's so hot.
9:31
Speaker 2: And I still have that like I don't want to
9:33
Speaker 2: do this because, like you know, it.
9:36
Speaker 3: Might be hairy today.
9:37
Speaker 2: I might be here today. Anyways. It's a very weird
9:41
Speaker 2: thing in my life where so much of my physical
9:46
Speaker 2: thought processes, as they look back, not as much anymore.
9:48
Speaker 2: I mean, goodness just is gonna let me no matter what.
9:51
Speaker 2: But when I was in high school, I look back
9:53
Speaker 2: on how much time I spent one being concerned about
9:57
Speaker 2: the hair on my head or on my back or whatever,
10:00
Speaker 2: and I don't have a Harry back. I don't know
10:02
Speaker 2: why I spend so much time worrying about it. There's
10:04
Speaker 2: not a hair on that back, like. I guess my
10:08
Speaker 2: point to all this is if you're a high school kid.
10:11
Speaker 2: And I don't think our demo is necessarily high school boys,
10:14
Speaker 2: But if you're a high school boy listening to this show,
10:16
Speaker 2: don't worry so much.
10:18
Speaker 3: We might actually not have one high school listener out
10:22
Speaker 3: of the I was just doing the count the other day.
10:24
Speaker 2: I bet we're up over like thirty million, forty million
10:27
Speaker 2: listens in total, and each week, you know, it's tens
10:32
Speaker 2: tens of thousands of people that listen to the show.
10:34
Speaker 2: I bet we don't have one high school boy.
10:36
Speaker 3: Listening thousand percent.
10:38
Speaker 2: I don't think we have one, not a single one.
10:40
Speaker 2: And hey, if you are high school boy listening, please
10:42
Speaker 2: let us know. We would love to be aware of
10:46
Speaker 2: our just the I bet you know what, I hope
10:50
Speaker 2: we all of a sudden find out that we are
10:51
Speaker 2: like viral in certain high schools when the boys come
10:54
Speaker 2: in and they're like, did you hear what Ashley said
10:56
Speaker 2: yesterday about Taylor Franky Paul? Would't that be fun?
11:00
Speaker 3: That would be fun. That would be fun. This is
11:03
Speaker 3: the equivalent of an Ashley Jonas like ramble, or like
11:07
Speaker 3: a Tom Brady ramble like we had the other day.
11:10
Speaker 2: I made us weakly.
11:11
Speaker 3: Made us weekly and I'm so sorry.
11:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do not want to get involved with Tom
11:16
Speaker 2: Brady and early don't.
11:17
Speaker 3: Want tom Brady seeing any headline with us associated with him. No.
11:23
Speaker 2: I saw that. I was like, why of everybody out
11:26
Speaker 2: there talking about this, am I the one? The one
11:29
Speaker 2: human who, honestly, without like dancing with the Stars, would
11:33
Speaker 2: have never known who Alex Earl is, not because I
11:35
Speaker 2: don't appreciate the work that she's done or what she's
11:37
Speaker 2: done press. It's just not my thing. And yet I'm
11:40
Speaker 2: the one that gets for the keyness of them dating.
11:44
Speaker 2: I don't know them personally.
11:46
Speaker 3: Good Lord. Bethany Frankel posted something yesterday about it, so
11:50
Speaker 3: hopefully her points over our cheers.
11:54
Speaker 2: It's more for me. I'm only commenting on behalf of
11:57
Speaker 2: a fan who's like, Wow, they're on a yacht. I'm jealous.
12:01
Speaker 2: I'm envious. They're both hot, Like they're both attractive, and
12:05
Speaker 2: I don't get it. We have a very exciting season
12:19
Speaker 2: of The Bachelorette coming up before we get to the bachelorette.
12:22
Speaker 2: We do got to get to know our bachelorette a
12:24
Speaker 2: little better. So is Frankie Friday. And I'm gonna start
12:28
Speaker 2: with this headline, Ashley, We're gonna bring Heather producer Heather
12:32
Speaker 2: in for this because she is convinced. I think that
12:36
Speaker 2: this is a subtle hint at how the season goes.
12:39
Speaker 2: But the headline reads this way, did Taylor just drop
12:42
Speaker 2: a subtle clue on her Instagram? Ashley? Explain what this
12:46
Speaker 2: is and let's bring Heather in for her opinion on
12:48
Speaker 2: why she thinks it's a clue.
12:50
Speaker 3: Okay, So Taylor posted on December twenty eighth a recap
12:54
Speaker 3: of twenty twenty five. To it, she set a song
12:58
Speaker 3: and the song was listened as original audio, so it's
13:02
Speaker 3: like she imported her own song and it's a male
13:05
Speaker 3: voice and it's like an acoustic song. The lyrics say
13:10
Speaker 3: stuff about miss calls, about another adderall and Xanax waiting
13:14
Speaker 3: for you for when year off. I don't know she
13:17
Speaker 3: can talk about what she how she interprets these lyrics
13:19
Speaker 3: a little bit more, but she's basically convinced that she
13:23
Speaker 3: has released a song of sorts from her winning boy Heather.
13:29
Speaker 4: Okay, guys, so I went full deep dive on this
13:32
Speaker 4: the other night, and it was only because, first and foremost,
13:36
Speaker 4: I will say this, when I was looking through the
13:38
Speaker 4: Instagram as I always do, I always go to the
13:41
Speaker 4: comments too for clues, and when I see Taylor's mom
13:47
Speaker 4: commenting on a video, it's when my Spidey sense goes up. Okay,
13:51
Speaker 4: So Leanne commented on it and said I like this song,
13:56
Speaker 4: and Taylor responded and said me too, with the emoji
14:01
Speaker 4: face with like tears watering in the eyes, and that's
14:05
Speaker 4: what sent me on the spiral. I was like, okay,
14:08
Speaker 4: I need you. So if you actually click on a
14:11
Speaker 4: song on Instagram, if it's connected to a video, it
14:14
Speaker 4: will take you to all the videos that have used
14:17
Speaker 4: that song. Yeah, so I was trying to find who
14:20
Speaker 4: the artist was and what the name of the song was.
14:23
Speaker 4: So that was the first one. So I clicked it
14:26
Speaker 4: and Taylor's is the first video and there had been
14:29
Speaker 4: like four other videos made using the song, but they
14:32
Speaker 4: were after Taylor did her video.
14:34
Speaker 3: So yeah, like people are using now her original audio.
14:37
Speaker 3: But okay, exactly question to you is like, is this
14:40
Speaker 3: her winner or is this like the person that she
14:44
Speaker 3: doesn't pick, but then like she made a mistake and
14:46
Speaker 3: then she should have picked him, And so then she's
14:48
Speaker 3: posting his song as a I'm sorry, I want you back?
14:53
Speaker 4: Exactly? Is it somebody who makes it really far and
14:57
Speaker 4: a one on one date serenades her with a song
15:00
Speaker 4: which we know has been done on the show at
15:02
Speaker 4: some point. You know, people love to show off their artistic.
15:05
Speaker 2: Backgrounds or create new ones mid season.
15:11
Speaker 3: So yeah, listen.
15:12
Speaker 4: I looked high and low for these lyrics on the internet.
15:16
Speaker 4: I could not find them. There were multiple people in
15:20
Speaker 4: the comments saying I like this song, who is this?
15:23
Speaker 4: Asking her who the artist is. She never responded saying
15:27
Speaker 4: who sang the song, but she did respond saying the
15:31
Speaker 4: name of the song is called Fruits of Your Labor.
15:35
Speaker 3: It's definitely one of the guys from her show, and
15:39
Speaker 3: if it wasn't her winner, then her winner would be
15:42
Speaker 3: pissed that this is true?
15:44
Speaker 4: That is but I then, so then I tried to
15:47
Speaker 4: look at her list of guys and tried to see
15:50
Speaker 4: who was listed as like a country music artist something,
15:53
Speaker 4: and I really couldn't.
15:55
Speaker 3: Figure it out.
15:56
Speaker 4: I think there is a guy in Nashville this season
16:00
Speaker 4: on her season who I think dabbles in country music,
16:03
Speaker 4: but I don't think he makes it very far. So
16:07
Speaker 4: I feel like it's probably one of our top contenders
16:10
Speaker 4: who we says but not reported on, and maybe this
16:17
Speaker 4: is just a hobby but not his actual career.
16:20
Speaker 3: Okay, that's my two cents.
16:22
Speaker 4: I'm being a CIA agent. If I'm wrong and somebody
16:25
Speaker 4: does know that's listening who the artist is that sings
16:28
Speaker 4: this song, come and roast me in the comments. But
16:30
Speaker 4: I don't think we're gonna find it.
16:31
Speaker 2: There's zero chance the show's okay with this.
16:34
Speaker 3: Oh yes they are. They love her doing this is
16:37
Speaker 3: she gets she's the exception to the rule. She gets
16:40
Speaker 3: to do this stuff.
16:41
Speaker 2: She just gets to like not subtlely. I mean, if
16:44
Speaker 2: this is really him, then this is not just a
16:48
Speaker 2: subtle hint. This is like a like you said, if
16:51
Speaker 2: she ends up with a different guy, that guy's gonna
16:54
Speaker 2: be like, what in the world are you doing here?
16:56
Speaker 4: First, on the almost Famous podcast, all I'm saying nobody
16:58
Speaker 4: else is reporting on this, so thanks.
17:00
Speaker 2: Bite, we are. We're reporting on this. We're really good
17:03
Speaker 2: at this stuff, all right. Next headline is this, if
17:16
Speaker 2: anybody is wondering. We talked about this a few weeks ago.
17:19
Speaker 2: People have been commenting for weeks about this guy. He's
17:23
Speaker 2: blown up from her being the Bachelor. But the headline is,
17:27
Speaker 2: is anybody wondering what Taylor is ex Dakota is up to?
17:31
Speaker 3: I feel like these people who love Mormon wives so much,
17:34
Speaker 3: they always know what Dakota is up to, but if
17:36
Speaker 3: you don't. He was subtly hinting out a woman being
17:42
Speaker 3: in his life. The last time we did a Frankie Friday,
17:45
Speaker 3: he posted like a girl's hair and him like very
17:49
Speaker 3: close to the hair and then I think it was
17:51
Speaker 3: hands or like a fullt or something like that. We
17:54
Speaker 3: thought he was trying to soft launch someone, but ever
17:57
Speaker 3: since that post we haven't seen anything else. We have, however,
18:01
Speaker 3: seen him take their son, their shared son ever to
18:05
Speaker 3: get his haircut for the first time. Was it his
18:08
Speaker 3: first haircut? I'm not sure, and it was very funny.
18:11
Speaker 3: So if you want to check that out, go for it.
18:14
Speaker 3: That's his recent update on social Ashley.
18:19
Speaker 2: This headline is one that has to do with Taylor,
18:23
Speaker 2: but we've had to have it explained to us on
18:25
Speaker 2: why it has to do with Taylor. But it's been
18:27
Speaker 2: a big deal that Letia Gar launched a new podcast.
18:31
Speaker 2: Her co host is somebody connected to Taylor. From my
18:36
Speaker 2: understanding based on season three of The Secret Lives Ashley One,
18:44
Speaker 2: Letia Gar launched a new podcast. That's a headline in itself,
18:49
Speaker 2: but it's who she did it with that are making
18:51
Speaker 2: people go hmmm.
18:53
Speaker 3: Yeah. So we have talked about Letia being part of
18:58
Speaker 3: like the Secret Lives community a little bit on the outside.
19:02
Speaker 3: She has shot in episodes but never really made it
19:05
Speaker 3: on an episode. And she lives, of course, in Salt
19:09
Speaker 3: Lake City, Utah. And she's launching a podcast with one
19:14
Speaker 3: of the ex husbands, Chase mcwater. So that's something launching
19:22
Speaker 3: a podcast with one of the girl's ex husbands. What
19:26
Speaker 3: will this be about, I don't know, says two Lonely
19:33
Speaker 3: Friends one podcast, and it's called the Lonely Friends Pod.
19:39
Speaker 3: It's coming in summertime, in January.
19:42
Speaker 2: I mean goodness, it's what we do for a living.
19:46
Speaker 2: But the world has a lot of podcasts. So typically
19:51
Speaker 2: when somebody says, hey, we're launching a new podcast, I'm like,
19:55
Speaker 2: go for it. I hope it works, but there's a
19:59
Speaker 2: lot out there. However, it does feel like this has
20:03
Speaker 2: gotten enough steam people are curious enough about it to
20:07
Speaker 2: tune in. What I'm just gonna kind of go on
20:11
Speaker 2: a rant here. What we love about Letia is that
20:13
Speaker 2: she has stayed. It seems like to me for the
20:16
Speaker 2: most part, above the fray of the season that she
20:18
Speaker 2: was on, So like that the drama hasn't really hit her.
20:22
Speaker 2: She kind of got away unscathed because she didn't end
20:24
Speaker 2: up with Grant, and so she doesn't have to really
20:26
Speaker 2: respond to any of that other than just saying, you know,
20:30
Speaker 2: I'm glad. Is this going to bring her into a
20:35
Speaker 2: light of speaking about these subjects and topics and make
20:38
Speaker 2: us go, you know, or or at least maybe bring
20:42
Speaker 2: in that some of that drama. She also was friends
20:44
Speaker 2: with the Mormon Wives, and I, from my understanding, is
20:49
Speaker 2: the co host that she's doing this with it's controversial
20:55
Speaker 2: because of his relationship with some of the Mormon Wives.
20:58
Speaker 3: I feel like it's gonna there are launching it in
21:00
Speaker 3: January because yeah, it says Latia and Chase talk about
21:05
Speaker 3: how they met, Chase's bad first impression and the origin
21:10
Speaker 3: of Lonely Friends. They're talking just kind of about pop culture,
21:16
Speaker 3: talking about Taylor Swift, talking about Jake Paul, Tom Brady
21:21
Speaker 3: and Alex Earle and the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.
21:25
Speaker 3: So all right, it seems like they're trying to capitalize
21:28
Speaker 3: on this moment in which Mormon Housewives just release the season.
21:31
Speaker 3: They'll be releasing another season in March. She's part of
21:34
Speaker 3: that community, but she's non inside source, so she technically
21:37
Speaker 3: can talk about it with a little insider information, but
21:41
Speaker 3: also as so as like an educated fan sort of
21:43
Speaker 3: how we do this show. And then she is having
21:49
Speaker 3: a husband from Mormon Wives on who knows Taylor personally,
21:54
Speaker 3: and I just think it, KINI, it does make sense
21:58
Speaker 3: business move. What's so interesting about this podcast duo is
22:04
Speaker 3: that season three ended with Taylor going on a date
22:10
Speaker 3: with this co host, Slash x Chase. What So they've
22:16
Speaker 3: gone on a date before, so this guy is of
22:19
Speaker 3: course they're capitalizing on this. That date didn't work out,
22:24
Speaker 3: but he's somebody who can say he's been on a
22:26
Speaker 3: date with Taylor for people.
22:28
Speaker 2: I mean, that holds some weight right there. That's crazy,
22:31
Speaker 2: that's all. I mean. People are gonna listen to this because,
22:35
Speaker 2: like you said, they're capitalizing on something that's on people's minds. Right,
22:40
Speaker 2: what happened with the date? And now he can speak
22:42
Speaker 2: about it. He's not under contract, he can share whatever
22:45
Speaker 2: he wants.
22:46
Speaker 3: It's a good duo. I just wonder if it's gonna
22:48
Speaker 3: mess with friendships, Like I don't know if Latia is
22:50
Speaker 3: gonna be invited to hang out with these girls anytime soon.
22:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, But I also wonder how much she
22:57
Speaker 2: was actually hanging out with him in any ways. I
23:00
Speaker 2: don't really know, right.
23:01
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, yeah, maybe she's just friends with one of them.
23:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, we wish him the best.
23:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see, We'll see what happens from this.
23:08
Speaker 2: Very interesting final headline about Taylor this week is this.
23:13
Speaker 2: Taylor hints about filming another surprise. This is posted on Monday.
23:19
Speaker 2: Taylor posted some shots to her Instagram story. It looks
23:22
Speaker 2: like she's in makeup. It's interesting to me because Ashley
23:26
Speaker 2: was in makeup Monday.
23:28
Speaker 3: I did get to work with Taylor loosely on a
23:33
Speaker 3: ad campaign. Is so cool. It was so much fun.
23:36
Speaker 3: I did it with Becca and Caitlin and Taylor. Taylor
23:39
Speaker 3: wasn't in our scenes per se, but we were there
23:42
Speaker 3: and glam together and we got to chat for a bit.
23:44
Speaker 3: And she's very sweet, so easy to talk to, very
23:48
Speaker 3: much like just kind of like a easy girl to
23:51
Speaker 3: hang out with, much like you've seen I feel like
23:53
Speaker 3: on TV so far. And I didn't pull too hard
23:57
Speaker 3: as far as for the tea on the seat, because
24:00
Speaker 3: you know, I.
24:01
Speaker 2: Want to be respectful.
24:03
Speaker 3: I was trying to be respectful. Was the first time
24:04
Speaker 3: I met the girl. But I did ask the standard
24:07
Speaker 3: question that they are usually able to ask, we usually
24:11
Speaker 3: able to answer press with, And I said, so are
24:15
Speaker 3: you happy? And she said she's happy. And we did
24:21
Speaker 3: a lot of comparing and contrasting about her Bachelor experience
24:25
Speaker 3: versus her Secret Lives experience and then my experience on
24:28
Speaker 3: Bachelor versus Housewives, because we're both on like a live
24:31
Speaker 3: show and then we're both on Bachelor. And she just
24:36
Speaker 3: made it seem like with the structure of the Bachelor
24:39
Speaker 3: was kind of a shock to her system because you know,
24:41
Speaker 3: like she has like so much of a schedule. And
24:43
Speaker 3: then she said that with Secret Lives, like she really
24:45
Speaker 3: does just kind of document her real life.
24:47
Speaker 2: Am I wrong? And I think a lot of people
24:50
Speaker 2: and you you're going to make an assumption here, because
24:52
Speaker 2: like you said, you worked loosely with her. You get
24:54
Speaker 2: to meet her, though I've always thought of Taylor Frankie
24:58
Speaker 2: Paul and Caitlin Bristow is very similar. Are humans? Did
25:01
Speaker 2: you pick up on that at all when you were
25:03
Speaker 2: with her?
25:05
Speaker 3: You know, I don't even know that I was. They did, like,
25:09
Speaker 3: and they did a TikTok or and Instagram and it
25:10
Speaker 3: was very funny, and that was just like, oh, wow,
25:12
Speaker 3: you guys are so natural at this sort of dance
25:15
Speaker 3: humor type of TikTok Instagram. So I saw similarity there,
25:19
Speaker 3: but we weren't in the same room. I don't remember
25:21
Speaker 3: being in the same room with Caitlin and Taylor for
25:24
Speaker 3: that long to pick up on vibes like that. But
25:26
Speaker 3: I understand what you're saying. They're just such open books
25:29
Speaker 3: and they just like don't give up, right, yeah.
25:32
Speaker 2: No, and like and they also you know, for as
25:36
Speaker 2: I think, at least from most people's experiences, like, they
25:39
Speaker 2: both are so fun to be around, Like Kaitlyn is. Yeah,
25:41
Speaker 2: the rudin no, of the reasons we love Kaitlyn so
25:43
Speaker 2: much is she is like this huge personality that's also
25:46
Speaker 2: very approachable and enjoyable to be around. It's not like
25:49
Speaker 2: she's like crazy loud all the time. She's just a
25:52
Speaker 2: fun human who's always up to do something weird and
25:54
Speaker 2: say something weird, and say something that's going to push
25:57
Speaker 2: the limits and make you uncomfortable. She does it because
26:00
Speaker 2: she's like, she can hang. She's fun.
26:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks exactly, she can hang. That's how I felt
26:06
Speaker 3: towards Taylor very much.
26:08
Speaker 2: So as we wrap this up, what we know about
26:11
Speaker 2: Taylor this week is that she's good at social media,
26:17
Speaker 2: either leading us astray on a wild goose chase or
26:21
Speaker 2: giving us hints to how her season ends. We also
26:23
Speaker 2: know that Ashley got to meet Taylor and likes Taylor,
26:27
Speaker 2: isn't excited and is excited for taylor season. Dakota gets
26:31
Speaker 2: a haircut, and Lautilla gar.
