  Speaker 2: It's Almost Famous podcast. We're back with all the latest
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: headlines happening in Bachelor Nation. We've got a lot to
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: cover today, some bad news and some good news. But
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: before we get to all the news, I want to
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: say congratulations to the Indiana Hoosiers on the national Congratulations
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: to you. Yeah, it's a big way.
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: Were you last night?
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: How was? I? I mean like good at the end,
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: which is I think like the point, but a mixed
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: bag of emotions throughout ups and downs and nerves and
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: it was such a good game, such a good game.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Good and at the end we're national champions. And that's
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: weird to say, but everybody should be celebrating because here's
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: the lesson learned Ashley before I throw it over to you.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: It is for so many years of our existence. I
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: think it was eighteen eighty seven is when our football
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: program was founded, we have the most losses any Division
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: one football team in history.
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:04
  Speaker 5: To be honest, I don't think of you as like
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: a football I know the first time, right, You're not
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: a football school like Division one sounds big.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, We're not a football school. We have never been
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: a football school. We're a basketball school. And over the
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: last two years things have changed. And so here's a
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: lesson learned is when you do things the right way
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: with the right people, and you focus on an intention,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: magic can happen. And for the Indiana Hoosiers, magic happened
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: last night and it can never be taken away from us.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: So we'll celebrate because you can go from worse to
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: first in a quicker period of time than anybody could imagined.
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: We proved it over here in Patriots Land. We concur
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: with that.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Oh shut up, you guys have been good forever, all right,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Ashley take it away?
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Okay, wait, wait, wait, Ben? That made me think, Ben,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: after all these years of.
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: Doing this podcast together and being such good friends.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Where did I go to school?
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Well, you got your masters from Virginia? Right?
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: Nope?
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Oh wait, I know I do know this. This will
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: make me mad because I do know it was. Oh Syracuse. Goodness,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Why do I think Virginia?
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, my master's from Syracuse? And where do you do undergrad?
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Your undergrad was? I know this one too, and it's
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: like a it was a surprise for me. I actually
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: just found this out recently.
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: I know because I always tell people like more Syracuse oriented.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Yes I am.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: I want to say, was it a school in DC?
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: No? No, two hours outside?
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: I do on even two hours outside. I don't even
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: know if I could guess. I just have always known
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: you as Syracuse. I think would. But I just I
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: saw you post about something undergrad and I was like, oh,
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: I learned something about Ashley today.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, I did recently post about it.
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: I went to James Madison because the football is all
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: so doing quite well.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: You know, our coach is from James Madison.
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: He's at an alum or he played, he played football there.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: That he was coaching at James Madison before he went
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: to IU, and he brought thirteen of James Madison players
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: with him, seven of them which were on this team
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: that won the national championship and all played.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: Wait, ma, that's so crazy.
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: See, like he obviously just worked as magic there at
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: JM here and then he's like, okay, guys, let's go
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: for here now. And they're still doing very well. So
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: all right, well that's so funny.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Yes, but I've always known you as Syracuse.
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, Like I know, it's crazy that I
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: only went to Syracuse for like, my program was sixteen months,
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: but I always just I felt very at home there.
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: I felt like I really belonged there. At jmu is
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: just I don't know, I was just like a homebody
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: at a party school and just didn't make sense. But
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: I still have plenty of fond memories. Anyway, moving on
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: to a cute story that I just wanted to share
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: before we go into these headlines. Ben, I just want
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: you because I was listening to Dawson and I was like,
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: oh my god, that's gonna freak out when like when
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: he gets to this age and he experiences something like this.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: So he's like kind of phasing out of nap time.
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: And I don't mind that at all because like he's
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: so easy now to me, like especially in comparison to
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: like what he was a few years ago. So our nanny,
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: she's like a Montessori teacher too, she's entraining to be
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: a Monty Story teacher.
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: So she's like very thoughtful about like the day's plans.
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: She's had him start doing quiet time instead of nap time.
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: Also when he does naptime now, it's like actually not
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: a good thing because he's like wired at ten thirty
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: eight pm, and I'm just like, let's not so now
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: he's having quiet time, so he's in his room reading
• 4:48
  Speaker 6: books to himself. So he's just sitting in his room
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: making up stories.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, it's so much fun.
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: I can't wait to get to this age. It's so
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: much fun. Like he holds my face at nine, Your
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: beautiful mama. You're a wonderful mama. It's like crazy.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Alrighty did you ever look at Jared and be like,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: hey man, you could do this too.
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: I literally tell I'm like, I get like all of
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: my like touch and like my words of affirmation from Dawson.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Now, yeah, Jared stepping up a little bit, buddy, Ashley,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: you got a beautiful family. That's something wonderful. Hey, I'm
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: a little stuffy today. I've been sick for last week.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: It's not good. But we're gonna get through this. We're
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: gonna start with some news that is not as we said.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: There's some good news and some bad news in the
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: headlines this week, but there are headlines to go over.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: We're gonna start with a headline about Katie Thurston. We
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: followed Katie's story for a while now, and in fact,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: in our breakdown of twenty twenty five most shocking moments.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Katie Thurston's diagnosis was number one because it threw us
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: all off, and I also engaged into an education about
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: our bodies and our symptoms and what's happening that so
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: many of us maybe have neglected. Well, here's a headline
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: that really sadened Alla's over Here at the Almost Famous podcast,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Katie Thurston reveals her mom's breast cancer diagnosis nearly one
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: year after Bachelor Star was diagnosed herself.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: How absolutely awful, so horrible.
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: I wonder how it feels to be going through this together,
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: side by side, as mother and daughter decades apart, going
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: through the exact same thing. So she posted on January nineteenth,
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: this is wow.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: She just did this the other day. It feels long.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: Couple days.
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: So she said that she flew to Seattle to be
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: with her mom during her first doctor's appointment. She wanted
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: to make sure that she was getting proper care and information.
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: She said, I hate that we have to be our
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: biggest advocate, but also this was what's going to save
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: your life. So a few weeks ago, her mom was
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: diagnosed with breast cancer, and she said that she went
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: in for her routine mammogram in December and it came
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: back negative slash probably benign, but the doctors noted that
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: because her mom has dense breas that well, she just
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: noted that she had dense breuss okay, didn't say further
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: imaging should be recommended. It actually like they did not
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: say you should go and get further imaging, so they
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: told her to just come back in another year for
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: another annual mammogram. They never suggested a breast ultrasound, and
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: that's normally what you should do, just for everyone out there,
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: if you have a dense breass, it's really a good
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: idea to go get an ultrasound in addition to a
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: mammogram because they can hide. So once she did get
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: the ultrasound, the doctors found suspicious masses and ultimately ended
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: up going and performing a brass MRI and biopsies, and
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: two weeks later, just a coole weeks agom, her mom
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: was diagnosed with cancer. So we are just so sorry.
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: And she did say that her own advocacy allowed them
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: to catch this early, so hopefully she'll be totally fine.
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: But it is just so crazy and so sad that
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: they are going to be having to go through this
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: journey together.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: It is sad and I think shocking because obviously the
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Katie thirsty news threw us all off, and then you
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: have this, right, you know, behind it, and you kind
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: of I don't know, Actually, you expect bad news to
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: always kind of be compounded by good news, especially in
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: this situations, right, I mean, there's always been this, like
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Katie is living this story that so many of us
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: are engaged in. But the good news is to come.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: You want to believe that, or at least I want
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: to believe that, And then you have this and you're
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: like that has to just be so hard on the
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: family at this point. But the underlying thing here is
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: they are doing this together, and I do think there
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: is going to be a massive impact.
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah, to see the bright side here. I think this
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: makes Katie's story even more unique. And of course it's
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: unique in a worse way, but I think it can
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: be unique in a very powerful way, Like it just
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: makes the story the experience a lack of a better word,
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: It's something I feel like they could write books on this.
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: Katie could write a book on it on her own,
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: but I just can already imagine them recovered in a
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: few years, just being out together, like on the trail,
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: making noise for breast cancer awareness.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: And helping so many.
• 9:45
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Actually, I'm a huge fan of land Man, massive fan
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: of Landman, and as a result, a big fan of
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: Michelle Randolph, who is wonderful and land Man. And Michelle
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Randolph is also sisters with Cassie Randolph, who was on
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: The Bachelor ended up with Colton Underwood at the end
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: that lasted not very long, didn't end well, But the
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: headline is this, Michelle Randolph reveals lessons learned from sister
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Cassie Randolph's time on The Bachelor. Here's the wild part. Actually,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: you had Cassie and myself out to Rhode Island for
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: an event at Audrey's Lea a few years ago, and
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: I remember talking to Cassie about her sister, Michelle, who
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: at the time was i'm gonna say struggling actress. She
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: was young.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: She's pretty pretty is an understatement.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she was gonna get her roles, but she hadn't
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: necessarily found that like sweet spot yet her big break,
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: and sometimes in Hollywood it doesn't have and well, hilarious.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: A few years later, Michelle is a huge name. She's
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: blown up, she's wanted everywhere, and she's talking about what
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: she's learned from her big sister's time on the show
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: that you and I are both a part of.
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: Give me some context here because you're a Yellowstone fan.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: Isn't lamb Man sort of under the yellow Zone umbrella
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: or wasn't or wasn't Michelle on a show?
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: Was it nineteen twenty? What was the show? The show
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: that was the number show?
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, eighteen twenty or nineteen twenty three or eighteen twenty?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Guy watched there?
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: It was, so she on that.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she started there. So it's all under the same creator,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: Taylor Sheridan. Land Man is the same creator, and that's
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: kind of how she got her foot in the door
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: with this, you know, this line of work. And now
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: land Man is a more modern show. It takes place
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: in modern times. But yeah, she originally started in that
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: show and did an incredible job in that and then
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: obviously landed her role as the daughter to Billy Bob
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: Thornton in Landman.
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, between that and the fact that she's been out
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: with Glenn Powell, she's been the talk of the town lately.
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: So in Style magazine asked her, what did you learn
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: from your older sister's very public breakup with Colton? And
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: she said what I I look, Basically, she says, I
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: don't want to share what I learned. I just don't
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: think anything good comes from that. It's because it's your
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: personal life, and it to be personal and reserved for
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: yourself and those who are close to you. She said, ironically,
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: I think what I learned is that I want to
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: keep my personal life private. And interestingly, Glenn Powell had
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: interest had an interesting, interesting, interesting, interesting quote where he
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: said it would take a very specific type of person
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: for him to pursue a relationship while in the public eye.
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: It's a lot to handle, is basically what he said.
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: And so I wonder if Michelle is.
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: Worth a lot. Yeah, so that show is doing amazing.
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: And that was Michelle's input on what she learned from
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: her sister's public relationship.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Bachelor Nations Caitlin Bristow celebrates and this is in quotes
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: weirdo Zach Clark's birthday amid four years of dating.
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: Rumors four years okay, four years two years of dating
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: rumors because they were first seen together.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: On New Year's Eve, when it was turning twenty twenty four.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: Uh yeah.
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: So the other day Zach posted something that honestly could
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: have been a headline itself. He said that he's he
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: said f fruit. Okay, so like he's turning forty two,
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: he has a cake and the message said f fruit
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: he has. He said he's forty two years old and
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: has still never had a bite of fruit.
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: Like part what I.
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: Need you to text him right now and be like, dude, like,
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: how much of a hyperbole is this?
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: Well, it's also weird because I could see it with vegetables,
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: but it's like really good, Like I don't know fruit.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: I like vegetables too, Like I like vegetables.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: I'm a big vegetable fan. I'm not saying I hate
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: on any of this, but I could see it more
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: with vegetables than I would with fruit.
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: Like what some people have like kind of like an
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: allergic reaction to fruit, Like my sister doesn't eat a
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: ton of fruit because she gets kind of like scratchy,
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: and like her lips get kind of like scratchy, and
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: her like throw it might get a little scratchy depending
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: on the fruit. It is fruit in certain kinds and
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: it has to do with like a Pallen reaction.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: You're never like go to the hospital status, but.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: You're telling me a strawberry is not like universally loved pineapple.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: Isn't like those are my two favorites obviously.
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: I mean they're like like Caitlin responds by saying Nature's candy.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Weirdo happy Birthday.
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, the two of them aren't like
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: super duper secretive, but they're also never going to post
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: each other.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: I mean I hope they do one day, Like where
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: does this end? Like the two of them seem to
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: make a lot of sense. They've spent two years like
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: being like side by side at certain events. I mean,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: at this point, are we really to believe that they
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: don't have some type of interest in each other?
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: Caitlin texted me or she didn't text me. We were
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: on a joint interview last week, that's where I heard it,
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: and she said that if she were married and had kids,
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: she still doesn't know that she would be posting her
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: husband and.
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: Kids, not that she wouldn't address the fact that she
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: was married.
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: She'd be like, hey, what's up, I'm married, Like she'd
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: say like, hey, what's up this is my husband, but
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: wouldn't necessarily like document their lives together as a family.
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: That's funny, which I go, that's a thought that you
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: have before you have kids. I know lots of people
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: will like obviously not show their kids' faces, but they
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: still document their lives.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: I honestly would be more impressed if she did it,
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: simply from the fact that I don't know what I
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: would show about my life if my wife child we're
• 16:11

• 17:35
  Speaker 2: than others. When the show was originally told to me,

  Speaker 2: I thought, Hey, the mansion needs a renovation. It does
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: like nobody's gonna question that it needed a renovation. To
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: build a show around it sounds great for the homeowners.

• 17:53
  Speaker 2: bunch of people trying hard to do it. Didn't know
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: exactly what kind of television show would make. I am
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: more now intrigued than ever. I actually think it could

  Speaker 2: be good for the franchise and really good for HGTV.
• 18:05

• 18:09

  Speaker 5: So Jill Chen my friend, is going to be one

  Speaker 5: Okay, So then Diana Anglert, Belle Courtney Robertson, Brandon Morris,
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: Sandra Mason from Golden Jeremy Simon also from this past season,

• 19:20
  Speaker 2: Let's say Jill Chin.
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so Jill makes sense, So let's go again. And also,
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: like the host is gonna be Jesse Palmer, which I'm
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: actually kind of like shocked by.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: I'm shocked that he has any time.
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: I think they could have Tyler could have done that,
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: So Tyler and Tasha will be the judges. Tyler, obviously
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: we know he flips houses all the time. He is
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: like that, this is what this man grew up doing.
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: His family is in construction, has been. Then I know
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: that Jill is here in Rhode Island. She worked for
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: the Preservation Society in Newport, which is a really awesome job.
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: So she takes care of all of the Gilded Age mansions.
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: So that's on par.
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: Sam McKinney, I also believe is in some sort of construction.
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: I don't know what Jones is, but you tell me
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: in a minute. I'm just gonna go through who I know.
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: And Dean obviously is the handiest guy. Dean has flipped
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: their RV, built lots of things with its hands, done
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: the cars and all that. He like, totally refurbished a car.
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: Brendan Morris we know that. Yeah, he is also in carpentry.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Noah.
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: Also they flip their entire house and they documented the entire.
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: Thing for at least a year.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: Tammy works for She's on.
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: The Oh my god, what is that show? What's the
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: real estate show that everybody loves? Not the selling Sunset,
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: selling sugnset, thank you, and then okay, so that is
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: off hand.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: How I know these people work in houses.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: No, it's a great cast. Alicia Getta, I think is
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: an interior designer or aspiring interior designer. I mean, all
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: these people have skill sets like the Courtney Robertson's of
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: the world obviously are incredibly creative. It's a really good cast,
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: I would say, of a really a lot of talented
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: people highlighting the talents that are available. And Tyler Cameron
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: makes a lot of sense. You know, Tasha, I don't
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: know her background in this world, but she's there, so
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: good for her. How Jesse Palmer had the time to
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: do an HGTV show is still a question that I'll
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: ask forever, because I don't know how that guy has
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: any time. You know, in his world. It's gonna be fun,
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be intriguing. There's a lot of people here
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: that make good television's that's a big win here, and
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: a lot of people that are very talented in their trades.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: And so we'll get to watch that. The premier day
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: is March second, at five pm eight pm Eastern Time,
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: so that's five pm Pacific, eight pm Eastern time. That's
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: gonna be on HGTV, So again it's March second at
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: five pm Pacific, eight pm Eastern time. We're excited to
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: watch it. Here, Bachelor Mansion Takeover. Get the behind the
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: scenes of how the mansion will be revitalized, renewed. Here's
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: an interesting tidbit to close out with Ashley. This show
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: was filmed before Taylor Frankie Paul's season, so we will
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: get to see during this show the first looks at
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: what Taylor Frankie Paul's men will be living in when
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: it comes to the mansion and how that will look
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: and operate. I'm excited to see how they change it.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Here's the truth. I've lived in that mansion. You've lived
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: in that mansion. I've been escorted in and out of
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: that mansion. I have escorted others in and out of
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: that mansion. I've spent a lot of months in that mansion.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: It's a beautiful property. Let's not at all say it's not.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: But it was outdated, it was beat up, It needed
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: it needed a refresher. And I know that. You know
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: some of the iconic scenes in the Bachelor world have
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: been filmed in that old mansion. However, I'm hoping the
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: renovation doesn't change what we know but enhances what we've
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: always fallen in love with. That's my hope.
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: Well see, I know I've said it before, but I
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: don't know that I agree. I like the fact that
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: it's like Spanish inspired, we.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: Don't know what it's going to change to it it's
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: still always It doesn't.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: Be all dated to me. It feels timeless.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: Actually, if you took a black light to that thing
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: after Bachelor Pad, it needed to be changed.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right, we'll leave about that.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Last headline of Today, Katie Bigger and Zach Shellcross reveal
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: their timeline for kids and share moving updates and so
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: much more.
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: Okay, why do I feel like she's pregnant because she
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: posted a picture of her hugging and loved once baby
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: and then says hopefully sometime this year with a little
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: face covered emoji foreshadowing. I feel like the foreshadowing or
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: just like, ooh, am I actually pregnant?
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: He like I think that they may be trying.
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: We'll see.
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: She also said that like their house is going to
• 24:08
  Speaker 5: be kind of perfect for a baby to move into,
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: says it's going to be ready in May or June,
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: so you know how how things work, probably towards the

  Speaker 5: end of summer. But she says she can't wait to
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: decorate it. And they're going to be having their first
