1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: This is the Ben and Ashley I Almost Famous podcast

2
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio.

3
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 2: It's time for Bachelor headlines. We got a lot of

4
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 2: headlines this week, some big ones kind of coming across

5
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 2: all of our twitters or news channels. The first one

6
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 2: is obviously this week, I should preface with saying that.

7
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 3: Nick and Natalie got married.

8
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 2: There's gonna be no headlines today about that because we

9
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 2: have a whole separate episode kind of covering that wedding

10
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 2: and all the things that happened behind the scenes. So

11
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 2: go back and listen to that if you want to

12
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 2: hear more about Nick and Natalie's wedding that just happened

13
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 2: this past weekend. Along with their wedding, Stage Coach was

14
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 2: happening and some you know, Bachelor other reality show crossover

15
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 2: moments happened at Stage Coach this year. Ashley tell us

16
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 2: about it.

17
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 4: Well, we saw that Tyler Cameron was there and he

18
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 4: was catching up with Maria from this past season, who

19
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 4: also did her first big interview this week, and we're

20
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 4: getting some headlines about that interview. We'll get to that later.

21
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 4: But Tyler was also supposed to be at well, he

22
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 4: was invited to Nick and Natalie's wedding he was unable

23
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 4: to attend for I believe a business commitment that he

24
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 4: had at Stagecoach. Also, Daisy Kent was there and she

25
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 4: was there with her new boyfriend who was actually a

26
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 4: former flame. His name is Thor Thor. The dude's name

27
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 4: is Thor. Isn't that crazy?

28
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 3: His solid name, solid name.

29
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 4: So maybe we'll get more from Daisy about that soon.

30
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 4: We also saw Joey and Kelsey there and Jason Tarctic

31
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,559
Speaker 4: with wow Us Weekly kind of messed up here. He

32
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 4: called Kat strict Tickler his fiance. I would say they

33
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 4: are not engaged, but his I think we can safely

34
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 4: say girlfriend now Kat Stickler TikTok Star. Yeah, they were

35
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 4: seen kissing, so I think we could call that thing official.

36
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 3: Obviously.

37
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 2: That kind of leads us into the next headline. The

38
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 2: Jason Tarctic Cat Strickler rumor had been kind of floating

39
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 2: around for a while now. People were speculating that they

40
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: were kind of dating. So just for people that are

41
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: unfamiliar with Cat, she's popular on TikTok. She has a

42
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: four year old daughter, I believe, and she's known Ashley

43
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 2: for her kind of comedic takes on life experiences. Motherhood

44
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 2: kind of her own life.

45
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 4: Correct, Yes, so my sister filled me in a little

46
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 4: bit on her. But she kind of came to fame

47
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 4: on TikTok during COVID and it was a lot of

48
00:02:55,320 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 4: family content between her husband and their newborn baby, and

49
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 4: they ended up getting divorced and like being like, hey, actually,

50
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:10,119
Speaker 4: even though we do funny tiktoks here, we're getting divorced.

51
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:15,399
Speaker 4: So there was that, and now she's been hanging out

52
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 4: with a lot of Bachelor alum alongside Jason. Like, maybe

53
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,239
Speaker 4: you ben have gone to dinner with her once.

54
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 3: I might have. Yes, I think I did. I think

55
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 3: I saw this one coming.

56
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we did get to see the two of

57
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 2: them together, and hey, it's not my place to come

58
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 2: out and announce relationships until they're ready, and so this

59
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 2: is obviously a moment where they're ready because they're going

60
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 2: out in public now. They seem very happy, very curious

61
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 2: about each other when we were at dinner.

62
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 4: But maybe you know this. Did they meet on the

63
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 4: podcast because he did a podcast episode with her. I

64
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 4: know that he just recently put out an Instagram reel

65
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 4: with that podcast, But I think the podcast episode dropped

66
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 4: a month or so ago.

67
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 3: Interesting.

68
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 4: He banks episodes ahead of time, and I was just

69
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 4: wondering because you know, that's how you met Caitlin through

70
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 4: a podcast episode.

71
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 3: Wow, what a channel.

72
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 4: So some people slide into dms and some people just

73
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 4: you know, have them on a pod.

74
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: And ask them a bunch of questions and say, hey,

75
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 2: I'm actually more curious about you. Can I take you

76
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 2: to dinner tonight?

77
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 3: Yeah?

78
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 2: I don't know actually how they met. I did get

79
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 2: to sit beside the two of them, but she was

80
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 2: on the other side of Jason, and I was kind

81
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 2: of catching up with Jason, and I do know at

82
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 2: that time they were not ready to be public.

83
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 4: Yeah. I would say that they've probably been together for

84
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 4: like three to four months.

85
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 3: Wow, So I'll wait, is that cross that?

86
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: No?

87
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 4: Mean late February is when they were starting that they

88
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 4: were seen on that vacation together.

89
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 2: Well, I guess if you're going on vacation with somebody, probably, yeah,

90
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 2: you're probably interested. When Kaitlin and Jason break up July.

91
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: It's almost been a year since they broke up. Yeah, goodness, gracious,

92
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: I can't keep up with all this all the time.

93
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 2: This is why I got you. I'm good calendar and

94
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 2: you're a good calendar. Speaking of TikTok, actually, I was

95
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 2: scrolling on TikTok and saw an interesting TikTok about Jason

96
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 2: Ritter and his you know wife. It's a really funny TikTok.

97
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 2: Have you seen it?

98
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 4: No, But I know that Jason Ritter and Melanie Lynsky

99
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 4: are big Bachelor fans. Jared has met them Mountain event

100
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 4: and so that they were like the sweetest and they

101
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 4: were the one that came up to him and they

102
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 4: were all like, well, I love the Bachelor.

103
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. So here's the story.

104
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 2: She is claiming that she didn't know she was engaged

105
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 2: to Jason when they first got engaged. The TikTok talks

106
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 2: about how she went to this jewelry store and saw

107
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 2: this ring. She loved the ring, but she said it

108
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 2: looked too like wedding ringish, engagement ringish, so she didn't

109
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 2: buy it. She went home and they were watching The Bachelor,

110
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 2: and he pauses The Bachelor in the middle of it,

111
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 2: she said, and hands her this ring that she had

112
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 2: just seen its jewelry store, but doesn't say anything kind

113
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 2: of about it, and she's like, thank you, this is

114
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 2: a really nice ring. And they start watching The Bachelor again. Well,

115
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 2: a couple of days later, they're going to a family

116
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: reunion and at this family party, Jason starts introducing her

117
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 2: as his fiance and she's like, I did not know

118
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 2: we were engaged. She's like, he thought he proposed to

119
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 2: me in that moment. I don't think he did, and

120
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 2: so they kind of had to do a rough redo.

121
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 2: So a couple things from this their Bachelor fans ciz

122
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 2: are I mean, absolutely hilarious.

123
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 3: It's really funny. If you haven't seen it, go out

124
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 3: there and look at it. It's great.

125
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 4: That is so funny. What was he thinking in the

126
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 4: middle of a Bachelor episode just to like a hand

127
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 4: her or ring and no speech, no will you marry me?

128
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 2: I like the idea that The Bachelor was like, he

129
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 2: was like, Hey, how should I do this?

130
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 3: And how do I do it in a sweet way?

131
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 3: Let's do it during the Bachelor.

132
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 4: I mean that's probably what he thought. He was like,

133
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 4: Oh the show talk romance for me.

134
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 5: I don't know. Well, it's a funny story.

135
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 3: All right.

136
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 2: Well, next headline is this Bachelor lum Arileindyke admits he

137
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: rushed into getting a vasectomy.

138
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 4: This is so interesting because the last time I talked

139
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 4: to them, they were so done with kids. But during

140
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 4: a recent Q and A, Lauren was asked whether or

141
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 4: not she'd want more kids, and she said, well, Ari

142
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 4: did have a vasectomy over a year ago, but now

143
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 4: i feel like we rushed it a bit. I'm not

144
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 4: sure that I'm done yet. So, you know, the second

145
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 4: mes are supposed to be relatively easy to reverse. Sometimes

146
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 4: there's about.

147
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 3: One of them, not only get two of them.

148
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, could you imagine oh getting a sectamy

149
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 4: having to reverse it?

150
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.

151
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 4: You guys are babies. I don't think that you're pretty

152
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 4: much totally not.

153
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 2: I have no problem admitting that I'm a baby, but

154
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 2: the idea of it just absolutely terrifies me.

155
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 4: I honestly don't really know what the procedure looks like.

156
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 2: I have an idea, well, I have an idea in

157
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 2: my head. I also had a couple buddies get them

158
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 2: and have really bad experiences. I have a couple that

159
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: have really good experience. If I have one body who

160
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: is like laid up for a week afterwards because things

161
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 2: didn't go according to plan, and that just scares me. Actually,

162
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 2: I don't know it just like makes it makes me tingle.

163
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 5: It should make you tingle.

164
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 3: That makes sense.

165
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 4: Do you know where the incision point is?

166
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 3: Yeah? I do, at least with my buddy, I do.

167
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 3: It's under the.

168
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 4: Pubic bone or said by the balls.

169
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 3: I guess down there. Yeah, it's down there underneath. I

170
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 3: think we call it underneath.

171
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 2: I called it the undercarriage. I don't know what other

172
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 2: people call it. I don't know the medical term.

173
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 4: Well, you know our he might be going back to

174
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 4: the office.

175
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 2: That would be wild, good for him. That seems like

176
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 2: a YouTube video waiting to happen.

177
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 4: Yeah for sure.

178
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 3: Well, final headline of the day is bachelor.

179
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 4: Actually, actually, don't say final. We definitely have to talk

180
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 4: about those Maria tiktoks Oh okay.

181
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 2: Next headline is this Bachelor Nation's Haley Ferguson gives birth

182
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 2: the baby number one with husband Oola.

183
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 4: Yes, so for so. Hailey was very open about her

184
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,679
Speaker 4: struggles with infertility there. This first child is a dream

185
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 4: come true, as she said via IVF. And the baby's

192
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 4: born over the weekend, I believe, because she posted this

193
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 4: welcome to the World post on Monday.

194
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 3: Absolutely awesome.

195
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 2: Congratulations to the two of them, welcoming new life into

196
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 2: this world. Final headline of today is Maria has been

197
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 2: on Call Her Daddy. That's been a big thing within

198
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 2: Bachelor Nation. Call Her Daddy is a huge podcast and

199
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,679
Speaker 2: not many from Bachelor Nation have been a part of

200
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 2: the recording. It kind of has swept i'd say, Bacheloration

201
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 2: by storm, just the fact that Maria was going on

202
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 2: and she's telling her story. Tiktoks have now been released

203
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 2: kind of about the episode.

204
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 4: And the juicy parts of the episode.

205
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Ashley tell us more.

206
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 4: Well, Okay, so she has this strange theory that like

207
00:10:55,440 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 4: me and Nick were in on trying to create a

208
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 4: villain out of Maria. So no, I didn't even know

209
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 4: who Maria was beforehand, but she has this conspiracy theory

210
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 4: that Nick and I got together with Sydney. We brought

211
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 4: Sydney to production and we're like, hey, this is our friend.

212
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 4: Sydney she'd be great to take down the villain or

213
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 4: something of this season. I actually is kind of she

214
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 4: needs to explain her theory a little bit better. But

215
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 4: the reasoning that she had, the reason that she had

216
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 4: a little suspicion was just because there's a picture of Sidney,

217
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 4: Nick and I from I think September twenty twenty two

218
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,199
Speaker 4: when Nick came to Audrey's for his book signing and

219
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 4: then Sydney was Audrey's social media coordinator and she took

220
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 4: a picture with Nick, quick picture. Don't even know that.

221
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we took her. We took Nick and Natalie

222
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 4: to her vintage store in Newport. May have taken a

223
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,959
Speaker 4: picture there, who knows, But that was it. Nick and

224
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 4: Sidney had not spoken and have not spoken since this

225
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 4: event in September twenty twenty two. He has absolutely no

226
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 4: relationship with Sidney. So if you're wondering why the heck

227
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,559
Speaker 4: and Nick would care about bringing Maria down in any way,

228
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 4: Supposedly the two of them spoke in like a flirty

229
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 4: way years and years ago before she he and Natalie

230
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 4: were together. It was like dming. I don't know if

231
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 4: they ever met in real life, but that's why Nick

232
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 4: was like, Oh, this girl Maria is going on the

233
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 4: going on the show. She's such a villain. I think

234
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 4: what she said in this TikTok on the podcast was

235
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 4: that Nick one time warned me while we were talking

236
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 4: years ago that if I were to ever do the show,

237
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 4: I would be the villain. So in her conspiracy, he

238
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 4: wanted to make sure that she was the villain, and

239
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 4: then hired this girl Sydney for the producers to bring

240
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 4: her down. It's not an accurate It's not an accurate

241
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 4: theory whatsoever. Nick does not know Sidney. In fact, Nick

242
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 4: thought Sidney was absolutely ridiculous on the show and called

243
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 4: me to talk about, you know how she is in

244
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 4: real life.

245
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 2: Still you have it, you have behind the scenes now

246
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 2: of the conspiracy for Ashley to bring down Maria.

247
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 4: It's like and I also had no idea was until

248
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 4: Sidney got back from the show and was like, so

249
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 4: there was this girl named Maria.

250
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, if you plan this conspiracy, this

251
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 2: was not a genius planning because only one person kind

252
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 2: of got brought down, and that was Sidney. Maria kind

253
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 2: of has shined and taken off from this experience.

254
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was like, oh wait, you weren't even the villain,

255
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 4: and it was like Sidney was the villain.

256
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 2: I would expect you to be a lot better at

257
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:09,079
Speaker 2: planning a conspiracy, Like I feel like you'd be pretty

258
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 2: good at it if you could really think it through.

259
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 2: Thank you're a gamer, and this one was not thought through.

260
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,439
Speaker 4: I'm really good at like being a mastermind.

261
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, given enough time, Ashley can absolutely.

262
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 4: And I'm not going anything when like, the producers are

263
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 4: the ones that actually have the hands at work.

264
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,359
Speaker 2: You know, they get they get paid to actually be mastermind.

265
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 2: They get paid big bucks for it. All Right, So

266
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 2: you have it there. You have the inside track to

267
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 2: the conspiracy that never existed. There was no Ashley is

268
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 2: telling us that there was no behind the scenes planning

269
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 2: with Nick and Jared and Ashley and Sidney to make

270
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,680
