  Speaker 2: is crazy. Uh. Taylor's shares the meaning of the ladybug.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: She posted this on social media as well. There's a
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: lady bug it looks like on a key chain.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: So Taylor posted this picture and she was like, somebody
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: gifted me this a few months ago, and then I
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: had to remind myself what the meaning of ladybugs, you know, means. Well,
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: they actually mean good luck in divine protection. So she
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: wants to keep them around a little bit more often.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: Now she's got some on our keychain and she has
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: like some little stick on ones, which is kind of adorable.
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: You put them on in sweaters, you know what.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: I am appreciating more and more about Taylor. Frankie Paul
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Ashle wat she really is trying hard to be her
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: best self. That's so true, you know, And it's in
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: the madness that we've talked about the craziness. It feels
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: like she's working really hard to also find meaning in
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: things and to rest in things. And I respect and
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: appreciate it, and I'm learning from her in that, So
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: something I'm learning. That's one thing I'm learning from Taylor.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Frankie Paul's Frankie Friday.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: I agree, Ashley.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Interesting tidbit after the cast was released Bachelor at Taylor
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Frankie Paul's suitor Clayton Johnson, who we didn't even talk
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: about in our cast breakdown that we did this week.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: We have talked about him before, but not this week.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, this is not a great photo for him.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: It just isn't like they could have done so much
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: more with him in this And but anyways, was engaged
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: to a list pop star before Reality TV fame is
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: the headline, So Bachelorette Taylor, Frankie Paul Suter Clayton Johnson
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: was engaged to a list pop star before Reality TV fame.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: All I want to know is who is it?
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Who's the pop star?
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Know?
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: How tall is this guy.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Why do you think that he's not tall?
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: Because the picture of him with Lona del Rey, who
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: is the mystery pop star, he looks tall.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Well, he's at least.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. But the photo doesn't do him justice.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm trying to say, is his photo does
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: not do him justice because it makes him look so tiny.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: I feel like, oh, it kind of looks like he's
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: leading his butt on a stool.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: That's not It's not fair to him.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: Okay, you're always looking out for the guy's heights, just
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: to let you all know, they tend to be taller
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: than they appear on TV. It's just like the opposite
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: of Hollywood when it comes to the Bachelor of Bachelorette.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: So this guy was thought to be engaged to Lana
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: del Rey. It does not seem like they were engagement
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: was ever like really confirmed, but like she was wearing
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: an engagement ring on Jimmy Fallon and then she has
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: this ring on in this photo.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: That we're seeing of them kissing.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: This was back in December twenty twenty, and apparently they
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: broke up during like that quarantine time.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: It was apparently a rough time to be.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Isolated together and we don't know like a ton about
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: their relationship. One commenter said, like, leave Clayton alone. They
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: broke up, Like how is this messy? And another one
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: said that I'm a friend of his and he broke.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: Up with her and it's like over and it's not
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: a big deal.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: She's like married now is she?
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: No?
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: She's oh yeah married and you know it's goodness, Like,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: give the guy a break? Is he not supposed to
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: ever date again?
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: So I think the question is actually more so is
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: he a cloud chaser? Is he just want to be
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: in this for the fame?
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: And that friend who was commenting under the photos said
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: something along the lines of he like signed up for
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: the Bachelor years ago. He's been getting asked to go
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: on the Bachelor for years. He's a friend of mine.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: I love seeing him try a new a route.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: So the moral of the story is, we don't know
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: for a fact that he was engaged to Ana del Rey.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: We assume, and it seems like it's pretty spot on
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: that he is. But that was years ago and now
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: he's on her season. Ashley. As we close out the
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Frankie Friday, there is one thing that was said in
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: one of the videos. They've put so many videos out
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: now of the cast that it's hard to keep track
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: of it all. One of the cast members said that
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: he had been to more countries than cities in the US.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: I just I don't know how that makes sense.
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: More countries and yeah, that doesn't make sense. There's absolutely
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: no way that that's possible.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: You know what it does for me, Ashley, It makes
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: you think he's a liar.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, red Flag kick him off Night one.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Wait, there's also something really worth noting about this guy,
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: kind of burying the lead here.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: He's a singer songwriter from Nashville. As we know.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: Producer Heather had that very intense theory that she ends
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: up with a singer songwriter because he she has a
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: song narrating one of her reels from It was late December,
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: early January, and it was from It was from a guy.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: But like the on Instagram, you won't know who the
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: artist is. It's not like something that's it's an original audio.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: So the thought is that possibly this guy is the
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: singer songwriter that she ends up with. We also thought
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: that there was like something about Nashville.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Nashville, they're good people that grow up in Nashville.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it could be that. And if he is a
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: cloud tracer, he was the one.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: We're getting to a lot of theories here, okay, and
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: they were all producer Heather series because she's got a
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: really great creative mind when it.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Comes to this.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: Her thought is that Taylor is going to end up
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: with a guy that she's already been seeing, because there
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: has been some speculation that in September she was like
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: casually seeing someone, and her theory is that this guy
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: that she was casually seeing comes on the show either
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: the beginning or midway through or something. So if you
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: put all the puzzle pieces together, she might really have
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: a theory here. This could be a guy that Taylor
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: was dating and then she ends up with him, and
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: then she uses his original audio as the back round
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: of that rate.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: They want to be unlike The Bachelor, to make somebody
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: who's a front runner.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: Look like the cloud Chaser.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: No, not great in his photo.
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: I was gonna say it's very Jordan Rodgers of them
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: to be like, look this guy is out for frame.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and look where that ends up. Marriage, happy life.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Really happy.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: As we close out now, I want to give a
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: shout out to Angela, who continues to message us the
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: most supportive comments based on every episode that we have.
