• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Ready for it?
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: And first I just want to say this just in
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: on YouTube, there's no content of you of golfing this week.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm not surprised.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna find it somewhere.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Okay, here's the first story from this week. Wells plays
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: in this event with me, and I play with him.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: We're always paired together on the first day, and Wells
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: and I go into this knowing, hey, we're good golfers,
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: like I will say that about us, but when we
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: have a very small chance of winning it, like these
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: guys are a lot better than us, and so we
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: go in for like different goals, right, top ten, top fifteen,
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: top twenty, those kind of things. Well Wells gets asked
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: before the event. They're doing a celebrity pickleball tournament and
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: there's four teams in the pickleball tournament. He gets asked
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: to play in it. I don't, he does. Wells has
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: always told me, Hey, I'm a decent pickleball player. I
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: really like pickle ball.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: And he said, I tell me what pickleball is.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Pickleball is like a mix between ping pong and tennis,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: and it's playing on smaller courts and you hit a
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: different type of ball with a solid racket. It's an
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: incredible game. It's the I think.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: Sounds like tether ball of like the nineties.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, similar, similar in a lot of ways. I do
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: believe it's the fastest growing sport in the US right now.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: It's it's really thriving. Well Wells is jacked. He's telling me, Hey,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: I think I might win this thing. I have a
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: chance here. I could compete here, and I'm so pumped
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: for him. This is gonna be a lot of fun.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: So we show up to the event. The brackets for
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: the pickleball tournament get put out. Wells Adams and his
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: partner are paired against Marty Fish, one of the best
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: tennis players of all time, and John Isner, the former
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: number eight tennis player in the world who's also six ' ten.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Wells gets smashed in the first game, like absolutely.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Just I thought you were gonna say.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: Like, no, no, no, he just gotta smashed. So sad for Wells. Okay,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: So here's my Tony Romo story. This happened in Tahoe
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: at the American Century Classic a few years ago. I've
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: never really told this story in the Almost Famous podcast
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: because it's something that embarrasses me deeply.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: So that's a big that's a big celebrity event that.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: Makes us want to know more, and it means it's
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: gonna be a great story. Yeah, and knowing you, it's
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: probably not really that embarrassing.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: That's pretty embarrassing, okay, Okay, Okay. So the American Century
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Tournament is one that is stacked full of celebrities. I
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: mean this this is where like the Justin Timberlakes. My
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: partner that week was Miles Teller before he was obviously
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: in Top Gun. You know, you have the Tom Brady's
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: and the Aaron Rodgers and the Tony Romo's, all these
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Steph Curry, all these huge athletes come out for it right,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: and actors and actresses. So I get invited to play
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: in it. I am so excited, and one of my
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: buddies gives me the advice, Ben, if you ever want
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: to get invited back, you just do whatever they say
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: to do, like you are entertainment.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: This week sounds like The Bachelor.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: It really is. Yeah, And so I'm I'm fired up.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: I can an email from the tournament director saying, okay,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: it's a time to sign up for our annual karaoke night.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: This karaoke night is something that's sent through an email.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: So I'm like, I gotta do it right, I gotta
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: do karaoke. That's following my buddy's suggestion. So I sign
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: up and I sign up for Whitney Houston. I want
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: to dance with somebody. Why Whitney Just it's a good
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: karaoke song. I felt like it was a cloud crowd pleaser.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: I also did it because I'm not a good singer
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: at all. Like I'm a terrible singer.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: So you went with the best singer in the entire world.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Well, that's the problem. I thought people would sing along
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: with me, so that my carry my mind. My karaoke
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: job would be very easy. You point the mic at
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: the audience and they sing. So I show up to
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: the event and one of the guys, the guitarist for
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Rascal Flats, is there at our player meeting and he goes, hey,
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Ben introduces himself. You must be a really good singer.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: I said, no, no, I'm not a good singer at all.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Why would you think that.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: He goes, you're not a good singer, but you signed
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: up for karaoke Night. I said, yeah, yeah, I did,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: and he said, do you know what karaoke night is?
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Oh gosh, I said, I have no idea what karaoke
• 7:39

• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Karaoke Night is in front of twenty five hundred people
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: on the lake in Lake Tahoe. Everybody from the tournament

  Speaker 2: the Rascal Flats of the World to sing cover songs
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: for the audience. This is not meant for people like you,
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: and I freak out right freak out. Yeah. So I
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: have two options, you back out or you just go
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: with it. So I just went with it because I didn't.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry. Were you the bachelor at this point? Like,
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: were you the reigning Bachelor?
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Now this was probably a year and a half later,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: two years later.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: Okay, but you're still pretty cool.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm pretty cool. Well, I mean as cool as

• 8:34
  Speaker 2: my relevant.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and almost famous.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Almost famous. And so I show up to this event
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: and he's not lying. There is a huge stage in
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: front of twenty five hundred people, all of which are
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: heroes of mine, the athletes and the actors and the
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: people and the singers of the past. And then there's
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: the public. The public could buy tickets to this. And
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: everybody is up on stage crushing it. I mean, they
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: are singing beautifully, They're covering songs, people are dancing around.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: It's a beautiful evening. And then they tell me it's
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: my turn, and I step up on stage and I
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: don't realize that this is legit karaoke where they don't
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: even have the words to this song. And no, guess
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: who the band is that plays the music, like the
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Roots or something, Rascal Flats. So Rascal Flats is playing
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: the music. I am supposed to be singing Whitney Houston.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: I know enough of the words to fake it a
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: little bit. It is awful. I mean, it is embarrassing.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: There is nothing about that like song that I did well.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: The crowd is in shock. They are embarrassed, they are confused.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: I get off the stage and I know that this
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: was awful, like.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: This was audience is shocked, like they don't have any humor.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: They don't have any sense of.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Oh no, people are laughing at me.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: No, sure, but like they're not like deciding like, oh,
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: let's sing and dance. None obviously doesn't have it.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: I think in a lot of ways they thought it
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: was disrespectful because they had paid They had paid tickets
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: to hear their favorite singers sing songs, and I'm taking
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: up four minutes of that with my music. So I
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: get off the stage. My head is sunk. I'm at
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: this event that I wanted to be at so bad.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: I've always wanted to play in I've just started the
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: event with the most embarrassing moment that I can remember
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: in a long time. Nobody was like really being kind
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: to me. This wasn't like, oh, Ben, that was awesome
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: way to go, Like you did it like that, you
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: should be proud of yourself. It was more like everybody's
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: kind of upset.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: Are you sure this isn't like Ben Higgins, Like like,
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: I could have walked off the stage, walked to my
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: hotel room and nobody would have stopped me.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: I would have just got looks like that was definitely
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: how it was going. Tony Romo is standing there, okay,
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: off to the side of stage, the only person to
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: say anything to me, and he goes, hey, man, that
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: that took balls aw and I just came aw. It
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: was sweet. It is the only interaction I had with
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Tony that week, but it was the only interaction I
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: had post this embarrassing moment, And I just remember him
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: saying one thing to make me feel like, hey, You're
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: not a complete embarrassment. Somebody sees it as courage and
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: it just happened to be Tony Romo.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: That's very sweet a lot.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah sweet, well, Ben.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: Thanks for sharing that story. I do feel like you're
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: deeply affected by it, and that's why you haven't told it.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Well, I don' think it invited back to the tournament
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: the next year, So really, I'm wondering if that might
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: have been it.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: No, Ben, this is crazy people. One should have had
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: a sense of humor, and two should have made you
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: more clear of the rules.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they should have given me that out. They should
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: have said, hey, this isn't just this isn't for you.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: But yeah, and guess what, it didn't make any headlines.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: No, but I'm sure sure the video's out there.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: Should I YouTube that? Ben Higgins karaoke? Just let me
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: do it. Don't say anything. It's not You just made
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: up that story, didn't you.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: No?
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: I really didn't. I really didn't, Ashley. We have a
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: podcast packed with headlines. Let's jump into him now right
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: after the break. First headline is this he is making
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: the headlines. Recently, Bachelor's Dean Ungler suggests using brother sperm
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: to impregnate fiance Klin. This according to people, All right,
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: ash tell us more.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Okay, so Jared was there for this conversation. Dean keeps
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: saying Dean like things on HOLP. We suck at being newlyweds.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: The new branding for help. I sadit dating.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: So isn't it just help we suck?
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Now? Yeah, it should just be help we suck.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: I think it is.
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: No, according to my husband who's on the show, it's
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: still help. We suck at being newlyweds. I just think
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: it should be helped. I suck at relationships. But whatever.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: So they talk about fertility on this episode, Kaylin said
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: that she did the modern fertility test, and then Dean
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: has apparently checked his sperm eight years ago. He's always
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: thought that he's infertile, always thought he's sterile, he says, So,
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: I guess that's why he got it checked eight years ago.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: And he was good back then. And then Dean does
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: the Dean thing where he kind of makes a joke
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: about what he says he's thought of in the past.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: He says, because I've always thought I was infertile. I've
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: always thought that, if need be, I did impregnate my
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: wife with my brothers. He has two brothers sperm, and
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: he goes, I guess that's weird now that there's a
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: person here, that would be the one being impregnated.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Like.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: He goes, no, and now that Caitlin is here, I'm
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: thinking it might be a little weird. He goes, you
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: can just go in the room with them for like
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: thirty minutes. And she goes, I'm not going, Oh my god,
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: this is the most ridiculous conversation ever, let alone. I'm
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: not gonna have sex with them. He goes, oh, I guess, so,
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: I guess it would be more of like a like
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: in Vitro type situation. It's I go Jared, like, how
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: is this making headlines? And then he goes, It's just
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: Dean being Dean and like joking around, and then everybody
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: makes headlines about it. And I have to say, when
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: you do read the actual article, and this is people, Okay,
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: this isn't like a tabloid. People's not a tabloid. When
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: you read the quotes, it sounds avery legitimate. I think
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: that Dean has some sort of seriousness to it. I
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: think he has thought of it as like a passing
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: thought in the past, and now he's just kind of
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: joking for a good podcast content.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, that kind of stuff happens. I just I
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: didn't know all this about Dean.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: No, oh, you think that people usually use their sibling sperm.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it happens, No, they you know how.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: On friends like Phoebe was the surrogate for her brother,
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: Like that is a little strange but also okay. But
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: using the sibling.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Sperm, I do think it happens. I do, he goes.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: Okay, But wouldn't that be weird knowing that your son
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: is really like your brother's son biologically, And he was like,
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: I guess that would be kind of weird. How, I
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: don't under I don't know if you could do that,
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: Like I understand, I totally from donation is a great thing.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: Egg donation is a great thing. But like the brother,

• 18:04
  Speaker 2: now is the quote they use, But they're considering it.
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I was actually shocked to see this headline knowing
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: that Ari has had a vasectomy. Yeah, they did say.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: In this article, says their shop is closed. He's had
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: a vaseectomy and we wouldn't have any more biological children,
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: but we've considered adoption. Said, it's not like on the
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: agenda right now, but if it does, it's something that
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: if it does seem like like a craving that they
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: have in the next couple of years, they will look
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: into it.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Well. Catherine and Sean say they originally wanted five kids,
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: but they're set with three. It's a lot, they say
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: this according to people.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: Yes, again in this article, Sean is talking about getting
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: a vasectomy soon. Man, what a trend in bachelination. They
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: said that they wanted to have and then once they
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: had three, they're like, okay, we like this little group
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: of ours. Says that a couple weeks, A couple of
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: weeks are a couple of months ago. Recently, they they've
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: had a little pregnancy scare, thinking that maybe she was pregnant.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: She took a test and it was negative, and they
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: both said when they saw that it was negative, they
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: were both really happy and that was a moment that
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: they that they were like, Okay, we should probably be
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: done with three. Now that being said, Sean said that
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: he could have like ten girls. It's the boys who
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: are trouble that are a lot more difficult. Makes me
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: feel much better, Sean. And then he said that right
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: now they're enjoying their little family, soaking it all in.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: He says, he catches himself a lot. I don't want
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: to sound super emotional, super sensitive dad over here, but
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: I'll catch myself looking at their sweet, doorable faces and
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: thinking this isn't gonna last much longer.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: It's a beautiful family. I know you have another Sean
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: headl that you kind of have the ends on. Yes,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: and it's something about Sean and a robbery story.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: Mm hmmm. This was recently as well. He and Samuel,
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: their oldest who was six and a half. They were
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: shopping at Dick's and somebody came in just you know,
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: a shopper comes in and goes if anybody has a truck.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: There's some guys outside trying to break into a truck
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: and like steal it. I don't know what they were doing,
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: like trying to pop up open the lock or trying
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: to like hot wire it to like actually steal the car.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: And he was like, oh great, that's definitely mine. He says,
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: now he regrets having a car that like a truck
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: that is like super shiny, big revs. He says, like
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: it's just got a fancy truck. He's like, oh great,
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: that was a mistake. He actually says that after this experience,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: he's gonna sell it soon. Just too flashy. So so
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: he goes outside, sees these guys like in their getaway
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: car trying to escape because they actually couldn't figure it out,
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: and they were wearing like masks and hoodies or something
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: like that. And he said that he left Samuel inside
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: the Dicks and he because he didn't want him to
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: see it. I'm sure he left him with like an
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: employee or something. And yeah, so that's the story. It's
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: pretty scary. Another shot in Catherine's story similar so many
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: things about like their kids in safety, their dog. They
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: had to rehome their dog, which is so sad because
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: he showed a little aggressiveness. And then the final straw
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: was the fact that one of their kids again I
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: think it was Samuel, had to go to the hospital
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: get a couple staples in his head after the dog
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: kind of took a bite out of him. It's so sad,
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: and you know, shot in Catherine just talked over and
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: over again how difficult decision that was. That wasn't them
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: just being like, ah, we're getting read of the dog,
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: like it was like a thought out decision. But that moment,
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: of course, was like the nail on the coffin. But
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: what's great about the rehoming is that the dog is
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: actually living with the trainer because that they sought out
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: a trainer to see if they could you know, obviously
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: train the dog into not doing this anymore. And the
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: trainer says that she, like, you know, she loves the
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: dog so much she wanted to make it her own.
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: And now the dog lives with lots of other dogs
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: on like a big piece of property and they get
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: to even come visit sometimes.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: Well, that's great. Well, that'd be tough. I can't imagine getting.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: I was thinking about you. Yeahen I read it, I
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: was like, yeah, Ben, it's gonna have sympathy towards this story.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, my buddy Whalen he uh, he's got a little
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: wild in them. But we're working on it. We're working
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: on it.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: We have a little wild and Lois as well, she's
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: not the most baveda.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Also, we have a headline about Beca Martinez.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: Beca Martinez is pregnant with baby number three. She teased
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: this announcement on Instagram for a while this week, had
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: a couple like posts about the announcement coming, and we're
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: all like, what's the announcement? She was like, are we
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: expanding our family? Are we going off the grid? Are
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: we signing on to a TV show? Uh? And it
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: was expanding their family, which I think a lot of
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: people who follow beckup closely like I do, was actually
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: pretty shocked about, because I believe that she's spoken relatively recently,
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: like over the past maybe like six months to a year,
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: that they were not planning on expanding the family at
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: a time soon. She definitely always seemed she wanted more
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: kids but I think like she was getting to a
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: point where she was like, I think we're gonna stay
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: with these two now and then down the road. But
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: that is not what happened. And maybe I'm wrong. Well,
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: maybe she changed her mind. Maybe like the other two kids,
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: it was a little bit unexpected. But I'm sure she'll
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: tell us the entire story very soon. Yesterday we just
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: got the announcement, and the announcement was quite unique. She's
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: been into like clamation lately and creating claymation, so she
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: did a stop motion clamation announcement real on Instagram, and
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: it depicts her clamation character going into the bathroom and
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: taking a pregnancy test, seeing that it's positive and being shocked,
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: and then going into her and her I'm not sure
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: if they're secularly married. Sometimes she refers to her to
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: Grayson as her Grayson as her fiance, and sometimes she
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: refers to him as her husband, but you know, either
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: or she does have a ring on her finger. And
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: then in the video, the claymation goes into the bedroom
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: throws the pregnancy stick towards towards her fiance and he
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: looks at it and then he falls back and faints.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: It's really cute and funny. It's definitely worth watching.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, go and check it out.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: Well.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: The final headline of the day, Gabby Wendy posts a
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: picture and the dress she was gonna wear for the
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: bachelor proposal on Clayton Season, and Clayton responds, did you
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: see this?
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: I was shocked. I saw this in real time unfold.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: She's she posted a really sexy picture of herself right
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: in this dress that apparently she was supposed to wear
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: when she walked up to Clayton. Now we know that
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: Clayton season didn't end in that traditional way where like
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: one is dumbed, you know at the altar and underneath
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: this sexy picture, Clayton says, you can wear it to Scottsdale.

  Speaker 3: He says, bring the dress to quote directly, bring the
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: dress to Scottsdale this weekend. Vaccination could not get enough
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: of this moment.

  Speaker 2: Yep. And then yeah, what do you think this means? Ashley?
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Let's dig in a little bit. What is your assumption here?
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: Is she going to visit him?
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: Do you think that she would have posted that? I mean,

• 26:48
  Speaker 3: did she do it for that? Would she be willing
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: to do it for that? Even if she didn't have
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: a little something maybe going on with Clinton?
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: I thought she was rumored to be with one of
• 26:58
