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 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio.

3
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:09,120
Speaker 2: It's almost famous podcast. Yes, we're back breaking down headlines.

4
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 2: But also our friend, my friend, Ashley has made some

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 2: headlines this week. Her husband Jared spoke out on his

6
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 2: podcast called Help I Suck at being newlyweds. Jared, I'm

7
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 2: gonna say outed you, guys, I don't know if you

8
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 2: wanted this to be public or not.

9
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I say it all the time.

10
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 2: Okay, well, fine.

11
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 3: Sounds way juicier than this, I'll tell you that.

12
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 2: Well, uh, it seems juicy to me because since we've

13
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: been on this podcast, you have moved across the country.

14
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 2: You have bought a house, you have sold that house

15
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 2: within a few months of living there, and then you

16
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 2: move to a new house that I thought you loved.

17
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 2: I have not got this update yet, but the headline

18
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 2: is that Ashley and Jared are not happy in Rhode Island. Ashley,

19
00:00:58,200 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 2: please elaborate.

20
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 3: Okay, it's like very salicious the way it sounds. I

21
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 3: don't necessarily see Rhode Island as being our necessarily forever establishment,

22
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 3: forever home. The thing is this, This is really what

23
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 3: it comes down to. I am very close to my family,

24
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 3: and up until I think, up until Dawson, it was

25
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 3: always like, Okay, I come home all the time, you

26
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 3: like once a month, and I FaceTime in them all

27
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 3: the time, and for the most part, my sister was

28
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 3: like almost always in the same city as me, with

29
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 3: a couple exceptions throughout our lives. They're always not very

30
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 3: long lasting. But yeah, it's just I want to be

31
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 3: where my family is now. And a lot of that

32
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 3: has to do with Dawson, because now, like experiencing parenting

33
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 3: and raising a child and just a child growing up,

34
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 3: it's something that you kind of want to share with

35
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 3: your family, and it's something that like can't necessarily be

36
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 3: satisfied through FaceTime. Even though we FaceTime like three times

37
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 3: a day. It's like the morning FaceTime, the afternoon FaceTime,

38
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 3: the night, the good night doesn't FaceTime, But like, I

39
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: don't want everything to be via FaceTime with them, And

40
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 3: we end up coming home to Virginia a lot, and

41
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 3: Jared's like so great and wonderful and like he's like,

42
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 3: you can go home whenever you want, Like we can.

43
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 3: We can, like even maybe a couple of years down

44
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 3: the road, like figure out how to like kind of

45
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 3: live in both places, and you know, in our dreams

46
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: type situation, but when it comes down to it, I

47
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 3: just feel like I have more of a community in Virginia,

48
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 3: which is where I grew up and where you know,

49
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 3: my immediate family is than I do in Rhode Island.

50
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 2: How would Jared's parents feel, because they live in Rhode Island,

51
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 2: how would they feel about you guys moving?

52
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 3: I'm sure they would be disappointed.

53
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you you think this is also something Jared

54
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 2: would be into. Now, I know you and Jared have

55
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: spent a lot of time.

56
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 3: No, not into Jared, he kind of he knows the

57
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 3: dynamic is different in Virginia. He knows that like family

58
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 3: time here is plentiful, and that my my family's just

59
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 3: so involved with Dawson, like hands on, and he knows

60
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 3: that like just the camaraderie that there is when we're

61
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 3: all together is something like we just don't have as

62
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 3: much up in Rhode Island.

63
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 2: So a couple follow up here, it's a big update

64
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 2: in your life. Audrey's coffee Shop is an incredible shop.

65
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 2: You and Jared have spent a lot of time on it.

66
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: Where would that leave Audrey's.

67
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 3: Well, that would be like a hand in hand decision

68
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 3: like it's all a hand hand decision, like we would

69
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 3: never We're not going to cut the least short by

70
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 3: any means. There isn't out in the lease in September

71
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 3: twenty twenty four, and that would be around the time

72
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 3: that Jared would be interested in if like, if it's surviving,

73
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,839
Speaker 3: then to keep it there, and that would be fine

74
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 3: and understandable. And if it was something that was still

75
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 3: not being like which was more still more of a

76
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 3: passion project, then I think he would. I think he'd

77
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 3: changed locations to it, honestly, because the actual space is

78
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 3: so big that he desires a little bit of a

79
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 3: smaller space for the kind of vibe that it has.

80
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 2: Okay, And then yeah, the last was when would this

81
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 2: be even being considered?

82
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 3: It wouldn't be anywhere I just have a dozen with

83
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 3: spaghetti o over his spaces. Came up to me, it

84
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 3: wouldn't be anywhere within the next year and a half.

85
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 3: So we're talking like fall twenty twenty four, if like,

86
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 3: that's when we would start making the thought more of

87
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 3: a reality.

88
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 2: So obviously Jared spoke out on help I suck at

89
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 2: being newlyweds? Did he handle this conversation. Well, are you

90
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 2: two handling this conversation together or has it been a battle?

91
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 3: Oh no, no, no, no no. This is like something that

92
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 3: we talk about so often. It was not a shocker

93
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 3: that he talked about it. I feel like I've put

94
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 3: it out there a number of times that I've been

95
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 3: happier different moganals before. It's really just like a sense

96
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 3: of community. Jared thought that when we moved toward Island,

97
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 3: his life would feel the way it did when he

98
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 3: was in his twenties, you know, when everybody's kind of single,

99
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 3: nobody has kids, and everybody gets together and just like

100
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 3: a community vibe. And we definitely don't have that. We

101
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 3: see a lot of his family and friends just on.

102
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 4: Holidays, and to me, like, it's just it's not what

103
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 4: I expect. You know, Like when we were when we

104
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 4: would go visit, which was often, you know, when we

105
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 4: lived in la it seemed like we always had that.

106
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 4: We always had that time at multiple dinners and multiple

107
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 4: friend hangouts. But then you realize, like, oh, I guess

108
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 4: you're just doing that because we're visiting, Yeah, but like

109
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 4: not living.

110
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 3: But I feel like when we're in Virginia, I mean,

111
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 3: maybe it maybe it's the same thing, but I think

112
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 3: when he really really comes down to it, it has to

113
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 3: do with where my mom, dad, and sister are.

114
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 2: It's a big life update in your life. We will

115
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 2: be falling along. I feel like we could have the

116
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 2: inside track here at the Almost Famous podcast. If you

117
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 2: want to hear more of Jared's side of this, please

118
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 2: check out Holp I suck at being newlyweds. He did

119
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 2: speak out on this and that's why it is a headline,

120
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 2: but we have more headlines to get to today.

121
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,799
Speaker 3: I feel like I haven't fully said Jared's side yet.

122
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 3: Can I say Jared's side?

123
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:51,919
Speaker 2: Sure?

124
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 3: Jared doesn't disagree with me on like the vibes, Okay,

125
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 3: he he definitely is like married to a state, though

126
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 3: he's like married to the nostalgia and the youth that

127
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 3: he remembers from the state. But I want to say

128
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 3: that it's not like something we ever argue over because

129
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 3: we both see very much eye to eye. And interestingly,

130
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 3: I love the geography of the state as well, like

131
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 3: I love that our beach is six minutes from our house.

132
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 3: I'm a water girl, you know, like I love being

133
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 3: by the ocean. To me, it's not at all the

134
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 3: actual state. It's just like where where the sharing of

135
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 3: experiences are.

136
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 2: Sure, well, again, you've done a good job at elaborating

137
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 2: on your side. I think it's pretty clear on where

138
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 2: your head stands and if you want to hear more

139
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 2: of Jared's side of this. Obviously, as I mentioned, Hope,

140
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 2: I second being newly Woods has this, you know, full

141
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 2: version from Jared's perspective on this move. It is a

142
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 2: big headline. At least it's a big headline here. It's

143
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 2: almost famous podcast because we obviously care and we're falling

144
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 2: along with Jared Nashally's life. But there's more headlines we

145
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 2: have to get to today. Sure is a big headline.

146
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 2: Kind of came out of nowhere. Honestly, not unexpected, but

147
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 2: out of nowhere. Bachelor Peter Weber confirms split from Kelly

148
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 2: Flannagan after three years of dating. This is wild. Three

149
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 2: years of dating altogether they have now confirmed a split.

150
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 3: Definitely three years on and off, but it sounds stramatic

151
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: to say three years. I'm pretty sure there was a

152
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 3: whole year and a half off in the midst of

153
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 3: those three years. But it's all good. So what happened

154
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 3: was he was doing an interview at a beauty convention

155
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 3: in Calgary, Canada, and the lady asked if he was single,

156
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 3: you know, like single looking for a future wife, and

157
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 3: he was like, yes, I am single. And that was

158
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 3: the bombshell moment where we realized that he's no longer

159
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 3: with Kelly, which fans have been speculating about a little bit.

160
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 3: They haven't been seen on social media out and about

161
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 3: a lot lately, and I feel like this was kind

162
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 3: of inevitable. I don't think it's super shocking to a

163
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 3: ton of us. And that's that's it. That's what we got.

164
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 2: Next headline is this Bachelor Nation baby. Becca Kuprin and

165
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 2: Thomas Jacobs, another huge headline this week, are expecting their

166
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 2: first child. This according to Entertainment Weekly.

167
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 3: This one was surprising. Kelly and Peter breaking up not surprising.

168
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 3: This surprising. I don't know why. I guess, like we

169
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 3: there was just no reason to speculate that Becca would

170
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,839
Speaker 3: have been pregnant, you know, because we didn't see any

171
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 3: change on her social media or anything like that. And

172
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, I was like that baby. Was like,

173
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 3: oh my god, this is so exciting. A lot of

174
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 3: followers were a little confused on social media because she

175
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 3: said party of five coming September twenty three, and that

176
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 3: was including their two dogs. Yeah, there is no twins

177
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 3: or triplets or anything like.

178
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 2: That coming that wild.

179
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 3: That would be wild, but no a baby. And it's

180
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 3: really exciting and so awesome.

181
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,839
Speaker 2: We were just talking about Becca Koufrin before the podcast

182
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 2: and I wonder, I do wonder if this had anything

183
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 2: to do with it. Another headline is Ashley Take it Away.

184
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 3: Bachelor Live has canceled all six Arizona shows in April.

185
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 3: What to know about refunds. This is from a local

186
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:34,319
Speaker 3: news affiliate in Arizona. It says the twenty one and

187
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 3: up event that features the alumni of the shows has

188
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 3: been canceled. No reason for the cancelation. The refunds will

189
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 3: be given fully from Ticketmaster. But Ticketmaster listings do show

190
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 3: that only are you ready for this cringe stat? Yeah,

191
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 3: that only between seven percent and twelve percent of tickets

192
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 3: had been sold for the each show at the time

193
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 3: of the cancer.

194
00:10:58,200 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 2: That's not good.

195
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 3: You know.

196
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 2: That was if you remember the very first season of

197
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 2: Bachelorette on stage, I was a part of it. It

198
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 2: was an incredible event and we met so many great people.

199
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 2: We traveled the country, but then COVID shut it down,

200
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 2: and I've always kind of wondered what the second season

201
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 2: or second third I guess season of that would look like.

202
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 2: I was wondering because I didn't see anything on social

203
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 2: media ever posted about it. I didn't know it was

204
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 2: officially canceled. But it's too bad that it was, because

205
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 2: it's a great team, some great people. Beca was an

206
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 2: incredible host. I knew they were going to try to

207
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,199
Speaker 2: bring in Andrew and some other and Rodney to help out.

208
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 2: We had him on the podcast to talk about it

209
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 2: even but doesn't sound like it took off. That's too bad.

210
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 3: So sad to seven.

211
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 2: Percent really low. I mean these theaters probably hold like

212
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 2: three hundred people, so seven percent of three hundred is like.

213
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 3: No, I bet she was like three She was like

214
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 3: a two thousand person theater. Really, it's like a theater.

215
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I mean.

216
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, that would they need you is basically that's the thing.

217
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 2: No, they don't need they don't need me. They don't

218
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 2: need me. Yeah, I don't know, that's crazy. I'm surprised.

219
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 2: It was a fun evening. I don't know the new

220
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,959
Speaker 2: concept of that show. I don't know how it kind

221
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 2: of changed. When I did it, it was more of

222
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 2: like a on stage dating game, which was fun. But

223
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 2: then COVID hit and you really couldn't have people make

224
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 2: out on stage, and so they had to change it

225
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 2: quite a bit. But I mean seven percent of two thousand,

226
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 2: it was one hundred and forty tickets. That would be

227
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 2: a very very awkward show. It would be very intimate.

228
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 2: They could do that in a restaurant. That's that good.

229
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 2: I know there's a lot of time and money and

230
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: a lot of good people behind it. Well again, but

231
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 2: congratulations to Becken Thomas because that's a big deal and

232
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 2: she has something very excited to look forward to, or

233
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 2: something very exciting to look forward to. Actually, this week

234
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 2: a show called The Goat was announced, made some headlines.

235
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 2: There's some Bachelor people in it. Grocery store Joe, which

236
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:15,479
Speaker 2: I'm still just so shocked, impressed whatever that he's continuing

237
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 2: to do what he does with his one Night on

238
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 2: the Bachelor app That is insane and absolutely incredible. And

239
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 2: Tasha Adams will be on this show along with some

240
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 2: Love His Blind Stars and more reality favorites. Ashley, what

241
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 2: is this show? Who's behind it? What can we expect?

242
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 3: So the show is called The Goat. It's on Amazon's

243
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 3: streaming service free V. It's hosted by Daniel Tosh. The

244
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 3: show runner is Bill Dixon, who worked on the Bachelor franchise.

245
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,559
Speaker 3: He was there for Winter Games for Us. He also

246
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 3: worked on f Boy Island and Pooch Perfect, both of

247
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,599
Speaker 3: those he did with his good friend and a fellow producer,

248
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 3: Alan Gil. Alon does have his I think Alon has

249
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 3: his hand in this a little bit. Okay, I might

250
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 3: be get out of line. Maybe it's just him supporting Bill,

251
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 3: but I know that he posted about it on Instagram

252
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:12,559
Speaker 3: this week. So yeah, big cast, huge cast, we got

253
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 3: Love is Blind, Bachelor, Big Brother, Housewives, The Challenge and

254
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 3: it is. It's being filmed somewhere in Atlanta, and they're

255
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 3: calling it Goat Manor. And I don't really understand the

256
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 3: premise yet, but I'm pretty sure it's just like basically,

257
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 3: all these top reality stars, you know, the krem Dela Crop,

258
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 3: they're facing off a new reality series to compete on

259
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 3: who is the greatest of all reality stars?

260
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 2: Goodness gracious, something to look forward to, something to watch.

261
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 2: Joe and Tasha from the Bachelor World will be there.

262
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 2: Stay tuned for air dates of that. But Bill is

263
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 2: incredibly talented and I'm very excited for him to have

264
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: this opportunity to be the showrunner on this show. So

265
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 2: we'll be supporting here on the All Thesteness podcast, we'll

266
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: be talking about it. Also, Susie Evans discussed his recent

267
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 2: first date. Yes, Everybody, she went on a first date,

268
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 2: calling it this is wild seems uh, seems like it

269
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 2: had to be very special because Susie's being pretty closed

270
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 2: about her dating life. She's calling it one of the

271
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 2: best first dates ever.

272
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was her first. I think it was like

273
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 3: her first, one of her first real dates since breaking

274
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 3: up with Clayton, And she said it's one of her

275
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 3: best dates ever.

276
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 2: One.

277
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 3: It started off strong because she said that she felt

278
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 3: like she just slayed her makeup that day and it

279
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 3: was a brunch date. And she said that because of

280
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 3: it's a brunch date, it can be kind of intimidating,

281
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 3: especially with your makeup because the sun is out and

282
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 3: shining on you. There's no candle light to stop. She

283
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 3: said she was like a little bit insecure me like,

284
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 3: oh my gosh, you're gonna be able to see everything

285
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 3: on in my face. She said. She also wore her

286
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 3: hair natural, and she usually straightens or smooths out her

287
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 3: hair per date. She said she usual really self conscious

288
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 3: about it, but now she goes, you know, if you're

289
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 3: gonna date me, you're gonna know the natural texture of

290
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 3: my hair. So anyway, she decided to go on this

291
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 3: date because she could tell why well, first, she was

292
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 3: a little hesitant because the guy apparently doesn't even live

293
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 3: near her in La, Like she thought it was gonna

294
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 3: be a long distance relationship. Why even try, But she

295
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 3: said that he seemed so gun ho about it. Most guys,

296
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 3: you know, you're on the dating apps and like she

297
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 3: meet up then she mean up, then I'm canceling this.

298
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 3: But like everybody just doesn't seem to be making her

299
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 3: even like gorgeous susie, like top priority. But she said

300
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 3: this guy seemed like he was making her priorities. Said okay, well,

301
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 3: even if you're not from around here, let's go out,

302
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 3: And she said they went out and she felt so

303
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 3: herself right off the bat. They even started making taco

304
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 3: bell jokes to the waitress, who didn't think it was funny,

305
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 3: but they thought it was hilarious, and she said she

306
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 3: just like had the best vibe going on with this guy,

307
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 3: and that's it. She says, ultimately, like I don't know

308
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 3: if this is gonna be like the one, but I

309
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 3: love that basically he put the work in and she

310
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 3: hopes to meet a guy who also like wants to

311
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 3: like make a relationship happen. She just feels like a

312
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 3: lot of guys, you know, they're just not relationship oriented

313
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 3: these days. She said that ideally, you know, if it's

314
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 3: not this guy, she does like to find guys through

315
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 3: friends so that they're like pre vetted.

316
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, so a little context here, just to confirm she

317
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 2: met this guy of dating app. Yeah, okay, so it's

318
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 2: not a part of Bachelor Nation, somebody we wouldn't know.

319
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 3: She said. He doesn't seem into social media, which she likes.

320
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 2: Okay, Wow, Susie Evan's coming out. She's dating, she's on

321
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 2: the market. Sounds sounds like she's found somebody she's intrigued by.

322
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 2: I'm wondering if this guy will read any of these headlines,

323
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 2: and if he does, I wonder what he'll think if

324
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 2: he reads I want on a first, you know, Susie saying,

325
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 2: I want in a first date is one of the

326
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 2: best first dates ever. If he's going to be like,

327
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 2: oh same for me, let's dive in, or he runs

328
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 2: off because too much too soon, We'll wait and see.

329
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 2: I hope he dives in. She seems like a catch.

330
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 2: Well meo, Ashley. That's the big headlines today. Obviously, we'll

331
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: be staying up today with you and Jared on your

332
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,439
Speaker 2: considerations for the move or what you're gonna do with

333
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 2: Rhode Island. We're celebrating Beck and Thomas and them announcing

334
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 2: that they're expecting. Also sad for bachelor life on stage.

335
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 2: That was something I had a lot of time and

336
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 2: effort into and I really enjoyed while I was there,

337
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 2: And it's too bad that it had to end. Who

338
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 2: knows if full end forever, but at least it's on

339
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:40,680
Speaker 2: a break this.

340
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 3: Way, it needs to go somewhere very bachelorette oriented, like

341
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,239
Speaker 3: Nashville or something. Maybe Scottsdale was a little bit too

342
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 3: random to have so many dates. Maybe there is just

343
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 3: one date that would have really worked out.

344
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I'm wondering, you know. Talking sticks also kind

345
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 2: of in the middle of nowhere, So how many people

346
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 2: are going to go from downtown Scottsdale to Talking Stick.

347
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 3: Oh really yeah.

348
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 2: I mean it's a great, great spot, great golf, But

349
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 2: they didn't ask us to be producers, Ashley. So my

350
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 2: philosophy is threat in Nashville, bring it to a honky tonk.

351
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 2: Let people date to get on stage and see how

352
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 2: it goes.

353
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 3: It really would make more sense because if they sold

354
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,680
Speaker 3: seven to twelve percent for each of the days, and

355
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 3: there were six days, you could have feeled it, Liz

356
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:31,199
Speaker 3: halfway up or more. You had this one day in Scottsdale,

357
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 3: which was how it would have been with you on

358
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 3: that tour.

359
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 2: There's ways Well, that's all the headlines we have for

360

Speaker 2: talks to us about her family. It was this a

366
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 2: shock or not what they're looking forward to in the future,

367
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 2: if she's I married or not. She talks about that.
