• 0:07
  Speaker 1: can Eddie hear here. We're not stopping. Even though it's
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: the official off season. It's feel like it's been a
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: while since we really had like an off season. Yes,
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: we haven't had an off season in a long time.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: If you backtrack to this time last year, there was
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Listening to Your Heart. Then a couple of weeks after
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: that ended, there was The Bachelor Greatest Hits, which went
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: on for like eight to ten weeks, and then we
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: had the Taja Claire season, and then we have Mad Season. Like,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: there has not been any off season this year and
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: there really won't be again once we start with Katie
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: season in May. So let's take this time to do
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: in depths and do some more host chat and all that. Yeah,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I think that's a great idea. I think it's gonna
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: be awesome. We're gonna do a lot of headlines too.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot of things to talk about.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: I feel I also actually feel like this is a
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: really terrific time, like any time is, but this is
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: a good time to kind of like slow down and
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: enter into the space of some of these conversations that
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: have been happening around Bachelor Nation and around the world,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: like to really kind of dive into those and to
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: bring on some guests who can speak to them, speak
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: with them, speak with us, um, to kind of maybe
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: move into this next season, like better educated, better prepared
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: all of us. I think it's a great time for that. Actually, Um,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: speaking of host chats, I know right now you have
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: some big moves going on in life. We've mentioned it
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: a few times, but but we've kind of waited. I've waited,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: I guess to ask you as a friend, even you
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: and Jared now have officially moved. I I think from
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: what I'm seeing on Instagram, what's going on in your life? Like?
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: What have you bought a house? Are you close? Are
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: you where you move into? Like? Can you just give
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: us a rundown on where your life is at? Yeah?
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Like I can't even remember where I talk about this
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: from where I don't, So so I forgive us if
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: we have kind of discussed it and I say the
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: same things again. Um, So basically I love if you
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: remember Ben in my vows, I literally promised Jared to
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: move to Rhode Island of England, um, and that's where
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: we would make our home, you know, for life that happened,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: it's happening a little bit earlier, maybe a year or
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: two earlier than planned. But that's because over the past
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: year with COVID, we've really realized that we can do
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: so much of our work remotely. Like you know that
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I used to go into the I Heart studio every week, um,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and then you'd be on zoom, you know, you'd be
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: on the screen there, um. But we really don't have
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: to do that anymore. Like how we record now is
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: just dandy, and so much of what we can do
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: with remote and we really just didn't feel like l
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: A would even get very very back to normal for
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: another year possibly, I mean, like maybe fall, we'll see.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: So we're just like we're spending we're wasting so much
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: money on rent and our apartment on the West Coast
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: and would rather be with our family on the East coast.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: So if we already spent two thirds of this year
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: on the past calendar year on the East coast, let's
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: just get rid of our apartment save that money, um
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: for the Well, what we did decide over December is
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: that we want to build a house. So we're going
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: to hopefully build a house within the next year, but
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: we have to find land to do that, and it's
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: really hard to look for lots or houses or anything
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: like that when you're not they're right. So we are
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: going to Rhode Island tomorrow. We spent the week with
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: my parents in Virginia, UM, while we waited for our
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: movers to bring this stuff. They arrive on Wednesday. We'll
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: get there tomorrow and Jared and I are just kind
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: of going to spend time with our families over the
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: next couple months. Maybe um, but may June, we are
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: gonna start, you know, looking for an apartment. We're just
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: going to rent for a year or two until our
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: hopeful house is ready to move in. So did you
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: drive across the country? How are you? Okay? Oh my gosh,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: you know, props of those who do that. I actually
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: do think it would be kind of cool, but that's
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: not that was not in the cards for now. Would
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: you would you or have you ever driven across country? Uh? No,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I drove. I think the longest I've ever driven is
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: like Indiana to Denverse. That's not that far. No, no, no, no, no,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: I've driven Indiana to Wyoming to Buffalo, Wyoming. So that's
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: twenty seven hours, So that's pretty long. That's really long.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: The most I've ever done is like six and a
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: half seven and that was like Virginia to Syracuse is
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: about six sixteen and then Virginia to Rhode Island, which
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: we've driven a couple of times this year and we'll
• 4:45

• 5:27
  Speaker 1: of house are you building? People? I think are very intrigued. Yeah,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I like pretty traditional colonial. But you know, I like
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: the very modern inside, the very like look, which is
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: a lot of white, a lot of neutrals. We really
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: like gray hardwood floor that's like are a weird must
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: have of ours. We like stone fireplaces. I want a
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: very traditional like New England style look on the outside. Um,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: white paneling, black shutters, possibly a red door. I really
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: like those, um and know what they're called. But like,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: you know how like on a third level or in
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: the attic you have those like three windows that kind
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: of like pop out a little bit from the roof. Sure, yeah,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: I can envision. I have no clue what it's is
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: like a it's not a terrorist, Yeah, I know, you
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. So like that look just
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: like traditional, like a modern colonial. That's super awesome. Actually,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I'm pumped for you. This will be a fun This
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: is gonna be a really fun season. You've done the
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: l a thing, You've done it well, you've crushed it
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: through the whole thing. Now it's time um for Rhode
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Island and to make your first home with Jared. This
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: is really awesome, that's super cool. Well, um, you know
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: it's uh, it's a busy time in Uh, in the
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: in the world around us, there is a lot of
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: headlines uh going on In fact, um, this is kind
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: of what these podcasts are about. Let's break down going
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: on in Bachelor Nation right now. We're gonna come back
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: with bachelor headlines. M h, We're back with bachelor headlines.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Of course, we have our resident expert on all things headlines. Actually,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: like Eddie here waiting. Uh. First headline is this Matt
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: James talks possibility of Rachel Kirknel reconciliation, says he's not
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: going to be dating this according to people. Yeah, so
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: you know, during after the final rows, I think it
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: was pretty obvious to all of us that there wasn't
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: much interest in reconciliation. Well, this week Matt was on
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: the Bill Simmons podcast and he said, I don't think again,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: he said this, I don't think anybody's irredeemable. I think
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: that I think that for Rachel, there's a lot that
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: we didn't discuss that we probably should have talked about.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: I probably should have asked her more clarifying questions, and
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I'm giving her space to do that. However, he says
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: um that he's just so exhausted. He wants to take
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: a step back from everything and process what's been going on.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: He just says that he's focused on getting back into
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: that meaningful work that he does in the community and
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: centering himself around projects that are going to elevate all
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: the work and he's been working on doing, um, you know,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: all that stuff in this in New York City and
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: special interest stuff. He really just wants to kind of
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: focus on life outside reality TV. But he said that
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: he won't be dating for a while. That's the juicy.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: The juicy quote here is that he, uh yeah, we'll
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: be dating for a while. I'm going to focus on work.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Hey good, I mean good for him if that's what
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: he feels is right and best for him. We hope
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: that he can heal come back stronger than ever. He's
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: a special dude. Well uh more Matt James headlines because
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: obviously this is all kind of circling around, like you're
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: getting the undertones of this that you know Matt is
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: is processing a lot right now. I don't want to
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: put words in his mouth that he's struggling, but he's
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: processing a lot. He has a tweet this week that says,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Google therapist need near me. Which I think, you know,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: just kind of hints at that he's looking to talk
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: to somebody. But then in addition to that, which is
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: the headline, I'll read, Uh, we all kind of assumed
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: that he deleted his Instagram based on kind of, um
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: that tweet criticism. Yeah, but there's more to it here,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: and I think it's really interesting. The headline reads, here's
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: why Matt James elited his Instagram picks after taxing Bachelor experiences.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: According to E, So it's a source and they're exclusively
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: telling E that Matt wants a fresh start right now
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: that his Bachelor season has ended. He said, He's what
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: The source says that he's ready for new beginnings and
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: that is one of the reasons he cleared his Instagram.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: He wants like a step back and refocus his priorities.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Says the show is toxic and taxing on his mental health,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: and he's glad that it's over. Um he said. The
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: insider also says that between him and Rachel, it all
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: ended badly and there's no chance that they will ever
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: get back together. Matt truly loved Rachel and it was
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: devastating that he had to end their relationship. Well, we uh,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: not a shock there right, based on what we saw
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: on after the Final Rose, but it does give clarity
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: to where they're at. Um some things that I think
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: we would have loved to have some some insight into.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Is the next headline. This was super interesting. Emmanuel Acho,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: who stepped in for Chris Harrison and did after the
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Final ros this this season, uh details Rachel Kirknell and
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Michelle Young's unaired bachelor after the Final Rose conversation. This
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: according to US Weekly. Yeah, so what happened is there
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: was a conversation between Michelle and Rachel that didn't get aired.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: He said, you know, he was disappointed about that, but
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: he totally understands that there's time constraints, you know, on
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: on everything when it comes to television. So this had
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: a you know, be cut out Rachel. He was talking
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: to Michelle basically, and he said that he could sense
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: that she was still hurt that Rachel never reached out
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: to her personally once the photos surface, and given their
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: friendship on the show, she was just you know, she
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: was feeling off about that. And he said that it
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: wasn't in the in the script, it wasn't planned at all,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: but he figured that since there both in the building,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: why not talk about it face to phase. So he
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: also said that, um, you know, the reconciliation between Rachel
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: and Matt wasn't gonna happen, so he wanted to have
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: like some sort of reconciliation take place on after the
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: final rows. So Rachel was willing and Michelle hadn't left
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: the building yet, so he brought the two of them
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: out to talk. He said that Michelle was just very upset,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: but um, he said that, you know, Michelle was very upset, um,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: but that they had a good conversation that you shared
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: an embrace of which we didn't see from Rachel and Matt. Uh.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: And the two of them sat there, and he said
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: that he thought it was a nice it was a
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: beautiful moment that he could witness. He actually feels like
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: very grateful that he got to witness this. He said
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: it was the favorite moment that you didn't get to see, um,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: but that it was very satisfying conversation. Basically, well, it's uh,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: you know again, I think that there's a lot from
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: the season that we're gonna continue to talk about. Uh,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: We're going to continue to lean into as the off
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: season happens. It's something that I think all of us
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: here are ready for, UM prepared for and also very
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: intrigued by. You know, how do we lean into this? Well,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: so these conversations, these reconciling moments that Emmanuel acco is
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: expressing our our things that I hope can happen. UM.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Now there is more headlines around the Final Rows. This
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: is something that's interesting. We had Bree Springs in the
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: podcast uh just last week UM and this was not
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: brought up, but brief Springs. The headline reads brief Springs
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: was edited out of after the Final Rose episode. This
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: according to screen Ring. So, Bree was on Extra last
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: week and she mentioned there that she was extremely disappointed
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: because she felt like she had a great conversation with
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Emmanuel about her journey and was able to kind of
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: wrap it up in a bow and got a closure
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: from it. And she wishes people could have seen her
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: reach that conclusion. How did she got mess in this?
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: And she was talking about getting um closure last week
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: with us. Oh it's fine. I don't know, but it's fine. UM.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: She said that they were very important conversations that needed
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: to be had, but yeah, she was there and she
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: she said that she was. She revealed other things too.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Emmanuel a little bit lighter, Um said that she was
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: scared for her life when the a TV flipped over. Um,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean that that's basically it, but it
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: was in you're saying that something like something like this
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: would have been cut out, but that the thing is
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: that it was an hour long. You know, if there's
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: two hours long, then we would have been able to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: see the conversations between Rachel and Michelle and Burrie. But
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I think at the point after leaving that two hour
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: finale episode, having shown a breeze exit which happened the
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: week before, it would have felt a little bit like
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: out of place. Yeah, so I don't remember, but after
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: the final rose is usually an hour or they usually
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: to Okay, well, remember how in the past couple of
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: years they've made them live, so like they kind of
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: throw back to the audience a little bit. So it's
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: it feels like it's kind of spread out over three hours,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: but the actual after the final Wars conversation is usually
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: an hour. Alright, fair enough, Well, skipping ahead, we're gonna
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: start talking about a new bachelorette bachelorettees. I guess we
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: could say at some point, but right now, it's Katie
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Thurston's time to be the bachelorette. Actually, this is interesting
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: to me because I remember back in the day the
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: contestants weren't even revealed, sometimes until after taping was even done. Like,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: I remember when it was announced, and now they're announcing
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: him so early. I want to hear two things. One
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: is your thoughts on the headline. Too, is your thoughts
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: on that and why they're doing it. But the headline
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: reads Katie Thurston's potential bachelorette. Contestants revealed this according to
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Entertainment Tonight. Okay, I'm gonna click this link and we're
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: gonna go through some pictures together. The oldest gap the
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: oldest age difference between Katie and like her oldest and
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: youngest guy is eleven years. Oh no, no, no no, okay,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: so it's eleven years between the youngest guy on the
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: season supposedly and the oldest guy in the season. The
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: youngest guy is supposedly twenty five, which I love. Okay, great,
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: because you were twenty five on The Bachelor. I start
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: feeling like bachelorette. Sorry, I think that that's begin to
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: be a good time frame. To start going on and
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: then the oldest is thirty six. I also love that great.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: Um Katie's thirty For you guys who don't know. And
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: to answer your question, I don't know. I don't know
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: that I have a preference on whether're like when the
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: photos are revealed. I think it's a little I think
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: it's kind of exciting to get the profiles up. I
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: guess the profile still go up towards, you know, the
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: beginning of the season. Right now, we're just getting photos,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: so all we're doing is judging looks um and yeah,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: we have no background, so I don't know. I don't
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: really care either way. I feel like I guess, if
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: I had to choose, I'd prefer not seeing the contestants
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: until just a week or two before the season starts.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Just kind of gets you hyped. I don't know, what
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: do you have a preference? I don't know. I mean
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: my preference is they should least wait until filming starts
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: so that the guys don't start messaging each other, like
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: it was kind of exciting to not know, right, I mean,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: I'm are they are the guys already in filming right now? Yeah,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: I think they start filming tonight. Actually, yeah, so they
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: could have seen this, um while they're still kind of
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: out there, and they could have started like meeting the guys.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: And I like the surprise. I just like that, the
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: not knowing who was going to show up, not knowing
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: if you're you had a friend that was gonna be there.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: I always thought, you know, there was gonna be a
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: friend of mine that randomly showed up and that I
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: didn't know about. But um, you know it's I don't
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: mind seeing the cast early. It gets us familiar with them.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: We'll probably push this to the side until closer to
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: the season launch, like most people will. But it's a
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: good looking group of dudes. Um, I'm pumped to break
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: it down as we usually do. I think there's a
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: lot here. I'm hoping for a really good love story,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: as we do every season. Um. But yeah, my preference
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: is that they would wait. I just think it's I
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: think it's kind of the fun and the surprise at all.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Also like it gives us something fun to talk about
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: when a season and approaches, Like they've been releasing these
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: pictures the day after our finale, Like once somebody's announced
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: as the as the lead, and I'm like okay, okay, okay,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Like just give me a couple of break and then
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: I'll get excited again when these photos come out. I'm
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: looking at the guys and it seems like ABC was
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: the ones who released these pictures. So, um, yeah, you
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: would hope. So if not, that's a massive leak. Um,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: that'd be really weird. Yeah, it says ABC released the photos,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: but they're not the photos, you know what I mean, Like,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: they're not the ones. Ag. It's like the the classic
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: back drop, like good photos that make these dudes look good.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: And so they they throw them in a in a
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: green screen that you know, makes them look all sorts
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: of weird. Hey, um, we'll speaking to this next season
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: coming up. Tasha Adams is speaking out. She's talking about
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: her her new gig as I don't know what we're
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: calling her the host now, I think that's what we're
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: gonna call her her and Caitlin Bristo Pataia. Yeah, yeah,
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: it's the same thing, Tasha Adams says of new back
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: to a hosting gig. My presence matters this according to CNN. Yeah,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: they talked to CNN this week and Tasia said she's
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: so incredibly excited. She feels so honored to have been
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: given the opportunity. If I can provide any sense of
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: comfortability for anybody who's watching the show knowing that I'm there,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: my presence matters, But that means that means the most
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: to me, So she said. She said that she found
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: such an amazing love on this journey and if she
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: could be a mentor for Katie to do the same, um,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: that's what she's there for, and she's excited to have
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: any helping hand in that matter. Tasia continued to say
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: that did I ever think that this is where I
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: would be and where my journey would end up? Absolutely not,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: But it feels so right, and I truly feel like
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: I should be here, and I truly feel like I
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: can help Katie on this journey. Well, we're excited to
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: see how that plays out. It's going to be super
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: interesting to have both Tatia and Haitln guiding uh Katie
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: along the way. Uh. And I do I think both
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: those women matter great deal to anybody to come in
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: contact with terrific people. Uh. And I'm excited to see
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: a playoff. Hey, do we know side note here? Do
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: we know if Jason is or um if Clarkey is uh,
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: are are they quarantining with the women? Jason definitely is.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: And I want to know how they got their dogs
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: over there, because like they've stopped with E. S A
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: Dogs on airlines, which it's a whole other topic, but
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: I want to know how the dogs got there. Jason
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: had to drive the dogs. He's definitely there. Uh. And
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: then it doesn't look like Clarkey is there with her.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: I'm sure he will be at some point. Jason is
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: two months now. Jason has a lot of stuff going
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: on right his his his website, and his Instagram restart
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: is incredible. It's something that I admire and follow. But
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: he's like the best hype man ever for Kaylin, Like
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: that dude quarantine for Dance with the Stars. He's quarantining
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: for her role. I mean, this is gonna be a
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: long quarantine. Like I mean, I'm sure once you know
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: he quarantines, he can get out and move about the
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: resort and kind of do his thing and walk the
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: dogs and enjoy it. But like this is he's the best.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: He's getting like best boyfriend award right now. Yeah, he's
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: crushing it. He's quite something. Luckily he can work from
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: most you know, most quarantine spots. But we know that
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: was zach he he and his the rehab center. He
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: probably has to be there in person more often. Sure
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: he'll be making a visit. Fair enough. Well, Um, last
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: week we had a headline that we kind of skimmed over,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: but just like briefly talked about, we said Claire Crawley
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: and Dale Moss were like no longer like it wasn't
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: gonna work out. That was a headline that we read.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: It was it was the information that was pasted to us. Um.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Most people were in agreement to this. We didn't get
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: a lot of we didn't get any backlash on it.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: But as the week played out, we realized that we
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: were wrong. Everybody was wrong. But there's more to this
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: story than we see. Ashley. Is a couple of headlines
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: here about Clariondale that we're gonna run through. We're gonna
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: do him step by step. The first one is Claire
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Crawley and Dale Moss are celebrating her birthday. This according
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: to Entertainment Tonight. YEP, she turned forty this week and
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: she spent it with Dale in New York and there
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: are pictures of the two of them kissing with masks on,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: you know, like can you e've done that? Like Eskimo
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: kisses like a little like those things. Yeah. Yeah, So
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: there's a picture of floating out there very easy. Just
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: type in Claire and Dale mass kiss and it will
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: come up and they look very cute. They were, you know,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: and having a little stroll paparazzi cottum um. And then
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: there's another headline talking about them working on things that
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: went wrong. So the things that apparently gone wrong in
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: the past include I think it's it's not him not
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: being ready for marriage and kids. So I don't know
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: like how that's gonna work, right, Like if that was
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: the main issue, then uh maybe maybe Claire's like, Okay,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I am down to wait a little bit longer. Who knows.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: We gotta get some insight into this obviously, Uh who
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: you know, who knows what the next week we'll play
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: out with the two of them, but we will, we
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: will continue to dig in. We have a whole team
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: on it. I mean they are researching this relationship, figuring
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: out what's going on with Claire in Dale, but they
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: are together in New York celebrating her birthday. Um, smiling
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: beneath the masks, which I guess you can tell because
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: they're smiling with their eyes. Hey, uh, Ashley, let's take
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: a break here. When we come back, we have some
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: really interesting headlines. They're gonna We're gonna cover Kelly and Peter.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: We're also going to uh cover this upcoming season of
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: The Bachelorette. In addition to that, we're gonna talk about
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: the Max Singer, which has been getting a lot of headlines,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: and Bachelor Nation. And finally, we're gonna end with a
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: major headline about Joe Joe Fletcher and Jordan's Rogers. We'll
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: be back with the almost famous podcast. All right, now,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: we're gonna dive into the next Bachelor relationship that has
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: officially ended this one. They're not back together, but Kelly
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: Flannagan is speaking out for one of the first times ever.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Kelly Flanagan says there were non negotiable factors that went
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: into Peter Weber split dis according to people, Okay, so
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: all unraveled on New Year's Eve. Uh, they decided they
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: decided to move to New York City together, right, Remember
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: how they were supposed to do that and then the
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: announce their split on New Year's Eve. Well, they tried
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: to mend their relationship once more in February. I think
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: that was around a Super Bowl time, but now they're
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: calling it quits for good. Kelly said, on her end,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: there were just a lot of non negotiables in the
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: relationship that essentially we're seeming to be worked on or
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: saying that they were going to be worked on or change,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: and actions kind of speak louder than words. She said,
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: if there is something that I saw as disrespectful in
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: a relationship, I would speak on it. I was pretty vocal.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: I think communication is huge in a relationship, and there
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: were things that essentially I would be like, hey, look
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: this makes me feel like and this makes me feel
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: this way, um, and they really weren't changing. She said
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: that he essentially tried to get back together and was
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: trying to work on things, and she was very hesitant,
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: and he was telling who he's she's getting juicy here.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: He was telling her things like I love you and
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: I want to get back together with you again. And
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: that happened around Valentine's Day. But that is all so
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: around the week where they decided to call it quits
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: year for sure. Okay, So guys, they broke up on
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: New Year's weekend. They try to rekindle things. He was
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: saying he was working on things. She didn't really see
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: the the work in progress. There wasn't really no improvement,
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: and they really called it quits for real, for real
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: around Valentine's Day. Well, to top it off, the next headline,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, it sounds like Kelly speaking out. It sounds
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: like there there's respect for each other, they're both moving forward,
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: and then on top of it, Kelly flanning and lights
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: her hair on fire. It was like, not funny, but
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: like the progression of things was funny. Yeah, what's going
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: on there? Basically, Like Blake just says that, you know,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: he's friends with both of them. She he really likes
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: Kelly met her in person over the Super Bowl where
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: they had that reunion. Um, but and then they still
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: care about each other. You just can't turn off those feelings, right.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: But whether they get back together or not, he doesn't
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: really know. He just knows that they're they're in pretty
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: good terms. Well, um yeah, so hair on fire, hair
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: on fire. Um, hey, big news right now hitting the

• 28:54
  Speaker 1: As we're off topic from the Bachelor for a second,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: there is another headline I want to read. Um, this
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: one doesn't have to do with hair burning. That doesn't
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: have to do with hair burning at all. I mean,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: that's that's unfortunate at every level. But you know who
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: hasn't burned off their eyelashes eyebrows at some point. Um.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: I just saw this today and I know it's a
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: popular show on on television, maybe the most popular ever. Well,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: I found out that Pete Davidson is rumored to be
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: dating the girl from Bridger Tin that the lead girl.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: This really this, according to TMZ, this is This is
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: a massive headline that I think most people will be
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: interested in, and we might be able to break it
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: sooner than most if it is true. Actually, what does
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: that do for your heart? Delightful? What a coupling. I'm
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: so into that. I mean, I love Pete Davidson, like
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: he just gets our our generation. I feel like he
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: is so funny. I love his personality. I could listen
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: to him talk forever, and I just things she's so beautiful.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know much about her personality, but I like it.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: I really like it. And how funny that like like
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: the like the sort of obnoxious funny guy is going
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: to be like this woman who's just like so pristine
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: and proper sy thing. Yeah, it's a great match. Well, hey,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: sorry to do railists there. Um, Ashley, we're kind of
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: gonna stay away from the Bachelor for just a second,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: but there's there's a tie in here. Um, the mass
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Singer is out. The latest clues are kind of rumored. Now, now, Ashley,
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: what's going on because they think it's somebody from the Bachelor.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Who could it be? Okay, so it says this is
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: the Piglets clues And I'm really gonna have to start
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: watching the mass Singer now to figure out who this
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: is because I think you and I would know based
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: on their voice. Maybe then the general public. So it's
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: the Piglet knows how to stay cool even in the heat.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: All right, I'm a bit of a hopeless romantic. There's
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: a clock, there's a question mark. Sure, I've given away
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: a few roses. The world saw my heart break. That's
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: a dead giveaway to me that it's a bachelor persona
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: persona batchelord. I love. This person has a tattoo of
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: a heart with an ax. Um, there's a lollipop and
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: a fortune cookie. So the Reddit users, which I don't
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: read personally, but our producers apparently do, say that the
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: rumor is it's Colton Underwood. Uh do you know any
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: of those? Do you know if if he has like
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: a tattoo of a heart with an ax, or if
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: there's a meaning between the lollipop and the fortune cookie
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: with him? I don't. I don't. It would be shocking
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: to me if it was Colton. But me too, I
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: don't think that people are like really, um, you know,
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: trying to get him on. It's a big show. Now
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: here's the question. Here's the question, though, Um, is it
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: a guy or girl? Like? Can we tell from the
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: mask singer? You not always? Not always? I mean yes
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: and yes and no. But there's like some voices that
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: can kind of go either way, especially in like the suit,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: I would say, like my gut instinct would be somebody
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: along the lines of a Shawn Low or an Andy Dorfman.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: I got a lot of messages Ashley asking if it
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: was me, and there's there's a dead giveaway here. I
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: don't want to say it wasn't me, but let's just

• 32:43
  Speaker 1: I actually just said it for me. Um. I'm not

  Speaker 1: trying to say that I'm good at singing, but yeah,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Ben Ben, I don't know that he'd be castid for this. Yeah,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: I don't think i'd be the top choice for singing voices. Um,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: it's interesting. So if you're not watching mass Singer, there's
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: somebody on there that looks like they've been a part
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: of the Bachelor franchise at some level at some time. Now,
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: there's a ton of rumors swirling. Nobody knows who it is.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: The clues are fine. I don't know. I got to
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: look into him a little bit more, but stay tuned
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: because the chances that somebody from the Bachelor world is
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: pretty high right now. Well, speaking of Bachelor World, we
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: did just hint that there's a big announcement with Jojoe

• 33:25
  Speaker 1: but it's something exciting for them. Jojo and Jordan's over

• 33:30

  Speaker 1: Are You the One Um. They say that it's going
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: to be following recent divorces as they search for romance
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: in paradise. The catch is that their exes will be
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: along for the journey, so over the course of several weeks,
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: I believe that it's ten couples divorce. Couples will be

• 34:53
  Speaker 1: one person who isn't relationship material, like not ready for
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: a relationship be eliminated it And of course we're gonna
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: have to deal with jealous exes, which may try to
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: send their rival or perhaps their ex home, So that'll
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: be fun. It sounds like it's gonna be wild. I
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: hope Jojo and Jordan have some some professional help to
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: help walk. This is gonna be an interesting show. I'm
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: gonna tune in. Well. Emma the makeup artist is down

  Speaker 1: looking incredible. I love following their both of their their
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: instagrams for all her looks for each day on set.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: And it's speaking about looks, We've got to talk about
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: this Kelly hair thing. So Kelly basically she put her
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: hair into a candle and no, well, now she's got
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: hair of all sorts of layers. Have you you alluded
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: to doing this? Did you burn off your eyebrower eyelashes
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: at some point multiple times growing up? Yeah? You did.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: It's stupid stuff like you have a campfire and you
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: put some like lighter fluid in and it gets hired
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: and you want it comes up with the grill. You know.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: I have a grill right now that I have to
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: like light with a match because the starters out. And
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: when it does, it sometimes like if the lid has
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: been closed for too long, Um, then it pumps up
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: like it's I've burnt hair off my arms like it
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: And you have to remember, actually a side of my
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: life that you've never known. Um. I grew up with
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: a family who owned a fish fry business, and so
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: we grew up frying fish around the Midwest for a
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: living every weekend. And so like you're around hot grease
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: and you're frying fish for churches and schools, Like getting
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: burnt is not uncommon. Um, so it will grow back luckily. Um,
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: but it's not. I mean, it's definitely not fun. The
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: worst part is a smell. Come on, we've all you
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: know smelled burnt hair. It's it's something something intense. You know,
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: my friend Naz burnt her lashes and her eyebrow off
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: a little bit on a date a couple months ago,
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: Like she was leaning over the candle and that that
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: happened and she was laughing hysterically, and then the guy
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: did not think it was funny and it was just
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: a very awkward situation and she never saw him again. Ah, well,
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: that's unfortunate. I mean, come on, hey, if everybody's done it, well,
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: it connects us. It's something we we share in common. Well,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Ashley to find all this thought. This was the last headline. Um,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: as I read Jojo and Jordan's deal, it does I've
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: never done this before, but you know what my dream
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: job would be, hm, it would it would be hosting
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: a show not exactly like this, this one feels hard.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: It would be like hosting The Bachelor, like, uh, the
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: Senior show where they're gonna be doing that. Like that
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: would be a dream because, like, can you imagine the
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: stories that these people have coming into the bachelor world
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: or to the dating world, Like the things they have
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: to kind of work through, the ability to sit there
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: beside him. Anyways, I'm pumped for Jojo and Jordan's uh
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: pumped for this. Uh, Ashley, you know what, Yes it's headlines.
