Speaker 1: We went to the pool, which was nice, so we

18
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: hung out by the pool. We don't have our own pool,

19
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: but we do have a pool near us that we

20
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: go to. We had a great dinner we did. I

21
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,119
Speaker 1: did get her a gift, something she was very surprised by.

22
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 1: I had to. And I don't know if this is

23
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 1: a thing, Ashley, or how you feel about it. I

24
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: would love I'm not a big gift guy. Receiving or giving.

25
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 1: It's just not something I grew up doing.

26
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 2: And oh I love giving.

27
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I like thinking of people and doing

28
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: it sporadically, but it's not I don't like the pressure

29
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: for an actual day. Yeah. And this year, for the

30
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: first time in the five years that I've been with Jessica,

31
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: I want to hear your honest opinions on this. I

32
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: had no clue what to get her. She does like

33
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: receiving gifts, she also likes giving gifts. I had no

34
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: idea what to get her like is zero, and so

35
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: I had to reach out to her mom. Her mom

36
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: gave me some great insights and tips because when I

37
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: asked Jessica, what would you like this year for birthday?

38
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: She goes, nothing, We're going to Italy, that's the gift.

39
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: And I was like, that's never gonna fly. If we

40
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,639
Speaker 1: go to your birthday and I don't have something, something

41
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: doesn't big, but something, I know that there's going to

42
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: be like a little disappointment. And so I had to

43
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: reach out to her mom. Here's my thing. I'm always

44
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: very thankful for her mother, very thankful that her mom

45
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 1: knows Jessica so well. Is it am I a bad

46
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 1: husband because I don't know what to get my wife.

47
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 2: No, I've been reaching out to a mom or sister,

48
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 2: is like the most obvious thing.

49
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course, okay, they're good. Well, I just want

50
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: to make sure what'd you get her? Got her necklace?

51
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: She had a necklace she's been having her eye on,

52
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: I guess for a year. She saw it at an

53
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: event that we went to. Somebody was wearing it. She

54
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: fell in love with it, kind of sent to her

55
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: mom said oh, this is so beautiful. So that's what

56
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 1: I did, and she loved it like we had legit tears,

57
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 1: which I've never cried over a gift in my life,

58
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: and so but she literally cried, which was very sweet.

59
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 2: So for Father's Day, this is how in Synca Jared

60
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: and I are about gifts. So first off, he was like,

61
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 2: I don't want anything. I don't want to. I think

62
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 2: he didn't get me anything for Mother's Day, so he

63
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 2: especially didn't know any anything.

64
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: I like it he got me. I like that move, Jared.

65
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 2: He got me a little chocolate in a single rose

66
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 2: get this at CBS at two am the night before,

67
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 2: on his way home from work.

68
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: He was thinking about you, which was sweet.

69
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 2: Like, I mean that like really took effort at two am.

70
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 2: So I appreciate it and I would never hold it

71
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 2: against and that he didn't get anything else. It's totally fine.

72
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,679
Speaker 2: But I love also because like I just don't need anything.

73
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 2: I'm always like I don't even want to get a

74
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 2: gift because like I already feel like the house is

75
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,119
Speaker 2: too jam packed. Sure, so I'm like, please don't bring

76
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 2: anything else into the house. But with Jared, I love

77
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 2: giving him gifts because like he just has these certain

78
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 2: interests that really give to gift giving because he's so

79
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 2: into sports, he's so into movies and you know Tom Brady,

80
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 2: It's just really easy to shop for him. I know

81
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 2: I've said this before. So for Father's Day, it was funny.

82
00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 2: I was like, what does he what does he like

83
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 2: actually need, Like what's not like a little gimmicky gift

84
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: that he would go that would go on display in

85
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 2: his man cave, like something that he would actually use us.

86
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: And I was like, Oh, he needs a bag for

87
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: his softball stuff because he's always just like lugging bats

88
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 2: and bases and softballs in like his arms and like

89
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 2: in multiple bags and we play softball. I'm just like intramural,

90
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 2: like fun like girling guy softball on Sundays. It's like

91
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 2: his favorite part of the week. So I'm gonna go

92
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 2: get him one of those bags that carries it all

93
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 2: in a very nice organized way, and I'm gonna do

94
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 2: it while he's at a softball game, because the softball

95
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: game lasts like two and a half to three hours

96
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 2: and it's too long for me to sit there. So

97
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 2: I go to like one of the two games and

98
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 2: it's by the Dick Sporting Goods. So I'm like told Jared.

99
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, I'm gonna drop you off and

100
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 2: then I'll go run air. I'm go I'm gonna go

101
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 2: do things, and he's like, what are you gonna do? Like,

102
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get your gift. And then he's like, don't

103
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 2: get me anything. Don't get me thing. He's like, but

104
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: if you get me anything, he goes get me a bag,

105
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 2: No a dis for like my softball stuff.

106
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 1: Come on, Jared, don't do it. Are you kidding?

107
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 2: We had never ever had a discussion about a softball

108
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 2: specific backpack, So isn't that kind of cool? It's like,

109
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 2: was annoying at the same time annoying. I told him.

110
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, it's very frustrating, right, So I

111
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,799
Speaker 2: had to say right there, and then I go, how

112
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 2: did you know that that was what I was gonna

113
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 2: get you? Because if I had just gotten it, then

114
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 2: he would have thought that, you know, I just took

115
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 2: his clue. Yeah, he's not so subtle.

116
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: Hint, he's not so subtle. Yeah, that's more annoying. Also

117
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: very good that you recognized it. You're in sync. Yes, yeah,

118
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: but I would have been frustrated because again, it's so

119
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: hard for me to think of gifts that if I

120
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: did get a gift or I had a gift idea

121
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: and Jessica was like, uh, you know if I would

122
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: really like that, I'm like, no, I was. I wanted

123
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: you to be impressed with my what I saw and needed.

124
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 2: I know, well your intuitive like husbands.

125
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, which I lacked this year very much.

126
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 2: No, you don't know, you don't what do you why?

127
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 2: How's O?

128
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: I didn't know what to get her? Had no idea,

129
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: zero zero zero.

130
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 2: Idea, Ben It is totally fine. Okay, So before we

00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: move on from birthdays and celebrations, I do have to

132
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,840

Speaker 2: Okay, well, what I did was I asked Instagram just

157
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 2: for their random thoughts on Charity season thoughts, predictions and

158
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 2: anything like that, like the first thing that came to

159
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 2: your mind. And now I have to say, I only

160
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 2: posted about an hour ago, but I'm shocked at the

161
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 2: lack of responses that I've gotten. So that makes me

162
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 2: worry that there's gonna be a lack of watching. One

163
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 2: of our headlines just go, let's just go into that headline.

164
00:07:58,400 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 2: It's the big deal, and it has to do with

165
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 2: the amount of people that I think will be watching.

166
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,679
Speaker 1: This is the headline air quotes here. It says sick

167
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: joke Bachelorette fans furious over major show change for Charity

168
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: Lawson's new season and claim they won't watch. Now, Ashley,

169
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: you're gonna go into this here. It seems to be

170
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: a problem with the fans. We haven't gotten a great

171
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: explanation for why the time change. I'm I can't read

172
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: or find out any reason that they'd make this change

173
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: thinking that they would get more viewers. It definitely is

174
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 1: a less desirable time slot, you know, typically and before

175
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: we get into your stuff here on Instagram. Typically, when

176
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: we lead up to this season, we are in the

177
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 1: conversation between the two of us, was this a good

178
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: choice for the lead? Will people buy into this lead?

179
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 1: Do they like the lead? Are they invested in this lead?

180
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: Was there a better lead to choose? Now? That conversation

181
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: really isn't on my mind for Charity season. I think

182
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: she's a great choice for the lead. I think people

183
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 1: like Charity. I don't know if they know her well

184
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 1: enough yet to be invested into her, but I feel

185
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: like they know her as much as they probably knew

186
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: let's say the Hannah Browns when Hannah Brown came on

187
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 1: to be the Bachelorette. This isn't an argument for are

188
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 1: people going to be into watching Charity fine lover or not?

189
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,839
Speaker 1: This is really right now for me, an argument on

190
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: why aren't people watching the show? And then if the

191
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 1: fall up to that is, if the reason is the

192
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 1: time slot, is that really going to lower the viewership

193
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: as much as what it feels like it seems it will,

194
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 1: especially based on some of your responses. So Ashley, go

195
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: into it.

196
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 2: Okay, So sports is like the one thing that needs

197
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 2: to be live these days in order to get writings. Okay,

198
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 2: because lots of people just watch it on HUU, they

199
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 2: watch it on you know, DVR, whatever, it's usually not

200
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 2: a huge I wouldn't normally think that this one hour

201
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 2: was going to play a huge, you know factor into

202
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 2: the ratings, except for the fact that I think people

203
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 2: watch the Bachelorette like sports. It's one of the shows

204
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 2: that people actually tune into at the time that it airs,

205
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,079
Speaker 2: and they watch it with friends. It's like a communal watch.

206
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: And eage on social media on Twitter like very appy.

207
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,199
Speaker 2: Yes, it's like a live event for some reason. That's

208
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 2: just how it's been. So that's why I actually think

209
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 2: the time change is going to hurt it a lot.

210
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 2: It's claim to fame the Frankie Jonas and Kevin Jonahs

211
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,839
Speaker 2: show that is airing before The Bachelorette now at a

212
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 2: PM on ABC. So I'm assuming that they were really

213
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 2: happy with how that show performed last season, and maybe

214
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 2: they think there's a general relatability with the audience. I'm

215
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 2: just thinking because like the hosts aid in the age demographic,

216
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 2: I don't know but moving and I actually think it

217
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 2: may have gone after The Bachelorette last season. So that's

218
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 2: concerning because that means that like they they really want

219
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 2: to promote that show more than they want to promote

220
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 2: The Bachelorette, And it brings up a conversation or are

221
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 2: they phasing out the Bachelorette? Are they trying to face

222
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 2: it out almost the franchise, Like why would they, Like

223
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 2: they're prioritizing another show basically by moving them out of

224
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 2: the eight o'clock slot. This is like what happens before

225
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: they move a show to Fridays.

226
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: So Claim to Fame pulled down less viewers than we

227
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: expect The Bachelorette to, you know, to have. So at

228
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: the peak of the season it was there, it was

229
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: three up. It was the premiere of Claim to Fame

230
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: pulled in one point nine five to three million viewers

231
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: last year. It did show really positive growth towards the

232
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: end of the season. So some weeks you saw drops

233
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 1: of ten and twelve percent. That was kind of middle

234
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:15,719
Speaker 1: of the season. But then at the end of the

235
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 1: season you saw a growth of twelve point five percent

236
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: week over week Forclaim the Fame. So if The Bachelorette

237
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: is pulling in one point nine million viewers this season,

238
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: that would be a low number for the Bachelorette. It

239
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: wouldn't be a shockingly known low number because past seasons have,

240
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: you know, held some of those numbers.

241
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 2: It's the trajectory.

242
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I also wonder because I am not convinced

243
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: that they're phasing out the show. I think some of

244
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: the recent changes in management, I think some of the

245
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: the commitment to the show, some of the changes they've made.

246
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: I think they're going to phase out the luxury of

247
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 1: the show. I don't think they're traveling internationally as much.

248
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: They did it in the season, right.

249
00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: I think they did personalite.

250
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 2: I've heard that is a gigantic change for a non

251
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 2: COVID season.

252
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 1: I agree. I don't know if they're I don't think

253
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 1: we're like coming to the end of the Bachelor att

254
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: a Bachelor. I don't believe that. I believe that the

255
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: show thinks, Okay, we've lost a lot of viewers, and

256
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 1: the last four seasons, right, a lot of viewers have

257
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,719
Speaker 1: gone away. However, the viewers that have stayed are very

258
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: loyal viewers. They are loyal to our show, and they're

259
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: going to watch this show no matter what. I don't

260
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 1: I think the people that were kind of on the fence,

261
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 1: the fringe viewers. The fringe fans have kind of gone.

262
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: I think they still might stop in for a week

263
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: or to, you know, to check out and see what's

264
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: going on. But I think the loyal fans are still there,

265
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: which you know is you and I. I will make

266
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: this argument. Yes, I don't like the new time slot

267
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 1: because I am an early bird, and the more people

268
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: I talk to these days, in their twenties and their thirties,

269
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 1: it feels like the new norm, like staying up late

270
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: is not a cool thing anymore. It's not something you know,

271
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: maybe you do in high school. But people young and

272
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: people who are you know, middle aged or in the

273
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: thirties like me, we enjoy going to bed early and

274
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: waking up early. We enjoy our early mornings. We have

275
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: you know, to get be healthy. Because people in this

276
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: new generation want to be healthier. They want to work out,

277
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: they want to you know, read, they want to take

278
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: some quiet times in the morning, they just before their

279
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: day gets started. And so I do think this new

280
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: time slot is concerning to me because nine to eleven

281
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: is really late, Like I'm not up at eleven o'clock ever,

282
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: unless it's like a Friday Night and I'm you know,

283
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: out or whatever. But I think for Charity, I think

284
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: she's a good enough choices lead, a popular enough choices lead.

285
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: I have a feeling that people will still tune in,

286
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: or at least they should tune in, because I think

287
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: she's going to be a really exciting, enjoyable lead to watch.

288
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: I think your season is going to be good because

289
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: the show has to have a good season, Like we've

290
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 1: said it, year over year of a year, they have

291
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: to have a good season. They have to. It's there's

292
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: not an option anymore.

293
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 2: Last season it was surprisingly entertaining for me, and it

294
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 2: ended up with a couple that I do think is

295
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 2: going to stay together.

296
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: Sure, but exactly. But but the difference was not saying

297
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: Zach was a bad lead again, not going into that.

298
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 2: People just weren't excited about him.

299
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: Weren't excited.

300
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 2: Do you think that people are excited about that about Charity?

301
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 2: And maybe call me hung up on the fact that

302
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 2: I really would have liked it to be Gabby or

303
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 2: Ariel because I just felt like we were way more

304
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 2: invested in their love stories, like they're the progression of

305
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 2: their love stories.

306
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: Yes, I think, but I don't think people are making

307
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: that like, you don't hear that argument out there very

308
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: much like I think they the Aerials and the Gabby's,

309
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: you know, maybe they go to Paradise. I think that

310
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: people would have said, hey, they would have been in

311
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: great leads. Its kind of the Rachel and Gabby situation

312
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: where people are like, we don't want to choose between

313
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: the two of them, so make them both bachelottes. I

314
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: think that's why they share. Did that. I think with Charity,

315
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: they're like, Okay, great choice. But we could have had Ariel,

316
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: you know, we could have Cad, Gabby, we could have

317
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: had all three of them. So we got one of them,

318
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: one of them that we wanted. Charity is going to

319
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: be great, and I think they're bought in. I don't

320
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: think anybody's holding resentment towards the show because of your no.

321
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 2: No. Everybody likes her. Yeah, that's the thing. It's undeniable.

322
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 2: Everybody likes her, and would you know root for her happiness? Now,

323
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 2: who's gonna say, do you think? And I'm sorry that

324
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 2: if we're like reiterating sort of thoughts that we've had

325
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 2: over the past couple months, but especially with the it

326
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 2: wasn't this is the official announcement of the time change.

327
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 2: For some reason, it's just becoming more of a topic

328
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 2: of conversation with being a week out. I think if

329
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 2: you'd done some little similar research beforehand, you would have

330
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 2: figured out this was this was coming. So I'm wondering

331
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 2: if you're thinking they're not trying to phase out the franchise,

332
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 2: but perhaps they're trying to switch the Hulu stream situation

333
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 2: with Disney Plus, you know, Disney Plus and Hulu. Like

334
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 2: I'm confused because because ABC is like kind of integrated

335
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 2: into both of those streaming platforms as Disney owns, yeah,

336
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 2: Hulu and whatever. See, so let's just say it ends

337
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 2: up on one of those, the way that Dancing with

338
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 2: the Stars ended up on that, and then they switched

339
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 2: it back because they're demographic, which is way older than

340
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 2: the Bachelorette ended up like not going over to streaming.

341
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 2: So do you think that they want to switch their

342
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 2: spots and then have the Bachelor go over to Hulu

343
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 2: slash Disney Plus.

344
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 1: It would never work. No, I don't see it. I

345
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:31,439
Speaker 1: don't think it was I didn't work with Dancing with

346
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 1: the Stars. I think it was a good experiment. I

347
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: think they knew it was going to be experiment. I

348
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 1: don't see the Bachelor or Bachelorette going to streaming.

349
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 2: Why. I think it would be not the worst idea.

350
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 2: I would also compete with the other dating shows that

351
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 2: usually put their shows out in a big chunk and

352
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 2: the people watch it in a big binge, which would

353
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 2: be kind of be fun. I mean, of course you're

354
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 2: going to get lots of spoilers, but like that's exactly

355
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 2: what Love is Blind does.

356
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean exactly. I think with The Bachelor Bachelorette,

357
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: one of the hooks still is that you never know

358
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 1: what's going to happen week over week. It's the cliffhangers

359
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 1: at the end of the episodes. And I think they

360
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 1: if they are cool with people binging it great. I

361
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 1: just think it dramatically changes how people watch the show.

362
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 1: And I don't know if the viewers would be more

363
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 1: or less, because I still think people would tune in.

364
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 1: But I think the Bachelor and Bachelorette are still holding on,

365
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 1: maybe by a thread, to this idea that we can

366
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: have watch parties, that we can get together with friends,

367
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 1: that we can have wine and cheese and sit on

368
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 1: a couch together, that it's an excuse for us to

369
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 1: get together on a certain night of the week and

370
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 1: it's my night out right, It's my thing to do

371
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 1: this week with my friends because we've done it together

372
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: since we were in college or in high school or

373
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: in middle school or whatever it was. And I still

374
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: think that is the differentiator between The Bachelor and Bachelorette

375
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: and all these other dating shows is it still has

376
00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:01,479
Speaker 1: the spectacle and it still has the gathering, and like

377
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: you said, it's almost like a sporting event. It's an

378
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: event still, and the event. Once the event aspect goes

379
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: from this show, I think the show really starts to go.

380
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: And I think ABC and Disney, if I was in charge,

381
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 1: would be trying to hold on to that event aspect.

382
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: And you see it with their promotions. I mean, not

383
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: that long ago, right, they had a massive watch party

384
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,159
Speaker 1: kind of premiere party where they brought everybody together to

385
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 1: watch it. At the same time, you still have people, right,

386
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 1: I know, you get these offers. I get these offers

387
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 1: every year to come watch the premiere at some specific

388
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: space like a bar or whatever. That still makes the

389
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:37,959
Speaker 1: show unique.

390
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 2: And you love the cadres. We normally have the Monday

391
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 2: watch parties, but we're definitely not going to be doing

392
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 2: it often this season with the nine to eleven because

393
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 2: Jared's like, I just can't keep the place. I would

394
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 2: end up having to keep the place, oh like working

395
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 2: there until twelve thirty. Sure I am, And he's like,

396
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 2: I'm not doing that.

397
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: Another on a Monday, Okay, so what are the thoughts

398
00:19:58,320 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 1: did you get on Instagram?

399
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 2: Okay? So yeah, one person said I told them that

400
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 2: they'd be anonymous. One person said I have high hopes

401
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 2: that she will actually find the one. Another one said

402
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 2: I think Charity is going to fall in love fast

403
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:14,159
Speaker 2: and hard. Another one said love her, can't wait to

404
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 2: see the outfits. Then some other people we're not as thrilled,

405
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 2: saying that, you know, hate the time change, but I

406
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 2: think she'll find love. Some other person says, I feel

407
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 2: like I know her more after listening to interviews of

408
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 2: her this week, so like, I'm excited for it. Then

409
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 2: I also have one person here that said Instagram ruined

410
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 2: the Bachelor franchise. Everybody's there for fame. Now I don't

411
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 2: agree with that actually anymore. We had that spike in

412
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 2: the Instagram life and now you don't get much. So

413
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 2: I think people need to get over that thought.

414
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 1: If that's still why people are going on the show,

415
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,440
Speaker 1: then they're going to be like really disappointed because it

416
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,360
Speaker 1: just doesn't really really that's not a thing. Or there's

417
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: nobody getting getting famous or making a ton of money

418
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,640
Speaker 1: coming off the show. That's not it's not what's happening.

419
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: And so I and I think this next you know,

420
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: generation of contestants and leads are going to figure that

421
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 1: out if they haven't already where they're like, I'm going

422
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 1: to go on this show because it's a cool experience.

423
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 1: I'm going to meet a lot of great people. I'm

424
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: going to be exposed to some really amazing opportunities, maybe

425
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: not financially or through social media, but just opportunities in general.

426
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 1: And maybe I'll find love and that would be great.

427
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 1: But I think the famous side, the social media side,

428
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 1: is gone. That's no longer a narrative. We really need

429
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: to like pound into the ground. Yeah, And as a result,

430
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: people will be there for the right reasons now more

431
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: than ever, I think, because if you're not there for

432
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: the right reasons, you're really wasting your time. There is

433
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 1: there is very little financial benefit, and I think people,

434
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 1: you know, we've talked about years past. I think people

435
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: think that people get off the show and they just

436
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: make a ton of money. Everybody, everybody gets off. Some

437
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: have done very well for themselves. Some have have really

438
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 1: found their niche in the social media realm, or they've

439
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 1: done hosting, or they've done events, or they've done podcasters,

440
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 1: et cetera. They've found the way around in this world.

441
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 1: For most part, No, it doesn't happen. It's not a thing.

442
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 1: And I think viewers maybe we'll enjoy the show more

443
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,399
Speaker 1: if they know they're watching people who are not going

444
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 1: to come off the show. And I've told this story before,

445
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: you know, I had people calling me after their time

446
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,200
Speaker 1: on the show and they'd say, I know everybody comes

447
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: off the show and they become instant millionaires. And I said,

448
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: that's not true. That's not a thing. That's that's not

449
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: how this works. Instant, instant, just people are just throwing money. Yeah,

450
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: people are throwing money at you. That's not that's not

451
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: what's happening. And so I hope a charity season, we've

452
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: now kind of said that narrative is no longer a thing.

453
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: I hope for charity season we see these contestants in

454
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: a better light because they're there for the right reasons

455
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 1: and if they're the villain still or all those things, great,

456
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 1: but they're not doing it for fame, because fame is

457
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 1: not going to come from it. Well, Ashley, the Bachelorette

458
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: season is upon us. It's a week away. We're very

459
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 1: excited for it. We're gonna be watching it. We're gonna

460
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: be breaking it down right here on the Almost Famous podcast.

461
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: We're gonna be talking about Charity season all their guys.

473
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 1: There's no like timing on when you need to listen

474
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 1: to those, So go back and listen to those as

475
00:23:55,200 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: you prep for the next season of The Bachelorette. Well,

476
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 1: we do have headlines. Let's dive into him now. The

477
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 1: first headline is this Bachelor Nation's Kelly Flanagan debused new

478
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: romance well after her split with Peter Woo.

479
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 2: It was fast.

480
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 1: It seemed fast.

481
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 2: Maybe it was it seemed faster via Instagram. We'll say

482
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 2: that because they never made an announcement that they had split.

483
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 2: Remember her and Peter, because I think the second dating

484
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 2: time around, which was about when we're like, let's guess

485
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 2: to me, like seven months, I don't know if it

486
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 2: was ever like to the very much exclusive title, and

487
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 2: I think that they just kind of knew that they

488
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 2: were revisiting it for fun. I don't know. I'm also

489
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 2: kind of just like assuming here, okay, and we yeah,

490
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 2: because we never got that official announcement that they broke up.

491
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 2: It seems like it was fast because it went from

492
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 2: just like Instagram with Peter to Instagram post of this guy.

493
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 2: But it was even back in April that Peter was

494
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 2: at an event and he was asked if he was single,

495
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,719
Speaker 2: and he said yes. So it's been like over two months,

496
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 2: and yeah, so let's just talk about what we see here.

497
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 2: Kelly is is she in Greece at a wedding? I

498
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 2: think she said it's some formal event, and she's looking

499
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 2: gorgeous and she has this very handsome man on her arm.

500
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 2: And the caption is simply three hearked emojis. But her

501
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 2: mom hilarious, obsessed. Her mom is feeling this couple. Maybe

502
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 2: her mom is happy that she moved on from Peter. Also,

503
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,400
Speaker 2: maybe I'm just assuming things and trying to make drama,

504
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,359
Speaker 2: but this is what she says underneath the photo. Great

505
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 2: looking couple, best of the lot, guy of my dreams

506
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 2: for my daughter. Greek, Greek, Greek because Kelly is part

507
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 2: Greek and goes, what else can I ask for? He's

508
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 2: a dream vote. That's my generations of describing one great catch.

509
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 2: Go get him, Kelly. We're all behind you.

510
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:11,880
Speaker 1: Goodness, gracious, hilarious, I have it. I'm all for it. However,

511
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: this couple better be very serious because if not, if

512
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 1: I'm Ari and I'm reading this, I'm like, we just

513
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 1: started dating two weeks ago, Like I would be like, oh,

514
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,879
Speaker 1: there's a lot of pressure on me. But he is

515
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: an entrepreneur. He is, uh, Like, who is he?

516
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 2: I was confused because when I first saw this, it

517
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 2: sounded almost like she was paired up with the celebrity

518
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 2: right now, like people seem to have known who he is?

519
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 2: Do am I supposed to know who he is?

520
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: I don't think you would know who he is. According

521
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 1: to what I have found, he's definitely an entrepreneur. He's

522
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: the founder and CEO of some transportation companies. So I

523
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: don't know exactly what he's transporting, but he definitely he

524
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 1: is one hundred percent working at some point in his

525
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: life in the marijuana industry, because he was considered a

526
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 1: top forty rising star in the industry. But this was

527
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: back The last known article I have on him is

528
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 1: when he was thirty in twenty seventeen.

529
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 2: Oh okay, so what does that make him now? Oh

530
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 2: so he's like thirty seven?

531
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:28,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's Tilaria Transportation was this company, and it

532
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: was kind of it was based in medical marijuana back then.

533
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if they ventured out as you know

534
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: marijuanas became more legalized, yeah, recreationally throughout the US. But

535
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:44,199
Speaker 1: he it's a very successful company. At least it was

536
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 1: I would have to do a little more research to

537
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,400
Speaker 1: see where they stand now. But he is an entrepreneur,

538
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:53,360
Speaker 1: he is living in that space. Very handsome man. So

539
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 1: good for Kelly. We're always be for Kelly, and we

540
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: hope Peter also finds his way to somebody. I'm sure

541
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:01,720
Speaker 1: he's doing just fine.

542
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 2: I heard that Peter may bee flirting with somebody from

543
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 2: some Zech season. But we'll filler, We'll have to, We'll

544
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 2: have to figure that out. Maybe a little busy and

545
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 2: those will be in the headlines next week.

546
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, next headline is this Bachelor Nation's Haley Ferguson

547
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: opens up about emotionally draining failed I UI attempt this

548
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:26,120
Speaker 1: According Las Weekly.

549
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 2: This is really this is like sad so Haley and

550
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 2: her well, it's not sad yet. I mean there's plenty

551
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 2: of hope. There's so much hope ahead of Haley with

552
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 2: this fertility journey that she's on right now. But she's

553
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 2: on one because they've been trying to conceive. I want

554
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 2: to say, it's been close to you or like since

555
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 2: their wedding, you know, like maybe the end of last summer.

556
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 2: And she had to undergo a history a historyoscopy to

557
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 2: remove a pull up that was in her uterus, and

558
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 2: since then she's been the process of starting IUI. So

559
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 2: she describes IUI as kind of like the first step

560
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 2: that they offer before you go to I IVF, and

561
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 2: it's kind of a way, she said, to trigger ovulation

562
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 2: and to get like the perfect timing. So what you

563
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 2: do is you go into the office like at least

564
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 2: I think like three days in a row at a

565
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 2: specific time that they know that like the egg, it's

566
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 2: a perfect time for insemination, right, So they did one

567
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 2: attempt of this, and you're on certain hormones to make

568
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 2: sure that it's also like your body is like prepared

569
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 2: and ready. She's really sad because this one didn't work out,

570
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 2: but she's going to go for another round. And she

571
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 2: says that it actually the odds of it working more.

572
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 2: The odds increase with each time that you do it,

573
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 2: or at least with time two and three, there's a

574
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 2: better chance to be conceiving with those times. She says

575
00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 2: on her TikTok that it's an extremely extremely emotionally dreaming

576
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 2: time for her and I'm sure it's not easy. That

577
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 2: she and her sister Emily got married within months of

578
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 2: each other. They got engaged within months of each other,

579
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 2: and now Emily just gave birth to her son, Beckham,

580
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 2: and and now Haley is in this situation where she's

581
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 2: just trying and it's not happening. She says she's gotten

582
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 2: to this point where it seems like she just assumes

583
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 2: that every parnancy test she's gonna take, it's gonna be

584
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 2: a negative. Because she said, like, you know, you just

585
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 2: assume that is not really positive. It's very dreaming, she said,

586
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 2: it's very disappointing, and she's trying to stay very very

587
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 2: super positive because she said, this is a quote the

588
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 2: second round of IUI because your chances, your success rate

589
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 2: goes up a bit higher on your second or third trime.

590
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 2: So that's really that's great uplifting news. And she said

591
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 2: that because of the stuff that she needs to be

592
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 2: on for the process, she's feeling like very bloated and

593
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 2: getting a little awake gain she doesn't feel like herself

594
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 2: and she's not confident in herself right now. What she

595
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 2: all knows is normal to be going through something like this,

596
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 2: but she said that you know, the one thing you

597
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 2: feel like you should be able to do as a

598
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 2: woman is get pregnant, so when it's not happening, she

599
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 2: just says she feels very insecure because of it. But

600
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 2: you know, there's a lot, a lot of a lot

601
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 2: of stuff that they have, you know, that they have

602
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 2: in front of them to attempt. So I'm keeping positive

603
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 2: for them and to Haley. Just my advice is to

604
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 2: stay as positive as you can be as well, because

605
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 2: the more you stress about it. I know it sounds silly,

606
00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 2: but it really supposedly affects your body in the way

607
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 2: that like it helps with the conception if you're not stressed.

608
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, definitely that makes sense. Well, Abigail and Noah,

609
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 1: you know they met on the beach, Abigail Heringer reveals

610
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 1: what caused her hearing loss and if she and Noah

611
00:31:55,640 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 1: will have deaf children. This according to The Bachelor Nation Ashley,

612
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: it's the first time I believe Abigail has opened up

613
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 1: about what actually caused her hearing loss. So it's very

614
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: interesting to read this headline.

615
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 2: Okay, So, Abigail has this series on her Instagram. It's

616
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 2: called Hear Me Out, and she talks about her hearing

617
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 2: loss once a week in this video and it's really interesting.

618
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 2: Each week there's something new that she talks about, Like

619
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 2: there's one where she talked about her cochlear implant, and

620
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 2: this week this is what this is what she shared.

621
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 2: Both my sister and I have hearing loss due to

622
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 2: what's called and pardon me for not knowing how to

623
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: say this connects in twenty six, right, Well, my mom

624
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 2: and my biological dad were hearing They both carried this

625
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 2: recessive gene. With this recessive gene, there is one a

626
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 2: one and four chance of Rachel and I being born death. Interesting,

627
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 2: so both of them got that one and four chance,

628
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 2: and she goes and the odds just happened to work

629
00:32:54,840 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 2: that it was twice in a row. She said. Connex

630
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 2: is the most common cause for a profound hearing loss.

631
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 2: It's non it is non syndromeic, meaning that there's no

632
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 2: other medical issues with this mutation except for hearing loss.

633
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 2: My mom didn't do any genetic testing before I was born,

634
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 2: she said. In kindergarten, she eventually underwent genetic testing to

635
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 2: find out what was causing the hearing loss, and that's

636
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 2: when they learned that it was Connex. Twenty six. She

637
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 2: also said, as far as passing on the genetic mutation

638
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 2: to her future children, which do you like the way

639
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 2: that she's referring to her future children With Noah, She

640
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 2: says that when that time comes for us to get

641
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 2: ready to start a family, not anytime soon. He would

642
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 2: need to have the Connex twenty six recessive gene in

643
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 2: order for our child to have the one and four

644
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 2: probability of being born deaf. Some of you guys asked

645
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 2: if we would do the genetic testing beforehand, and we

646
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 2: just decided that wasn't necessary for us. A lot of

647
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 2: parents opt out to do it. A lot of parents

648
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 2: opt to do it to relieve any surprises or to

649
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 2: even help them better prepare. But for us, it was

650
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,919
Speaker 2: a personal choice not to do it. No matter how

651
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 2: our child is born deaf or not, will handle it

652
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 2: as a family and we'll go from there.

653
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:21,399
Speaker 1: So they've had these I mean, there's a lot here,

654
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 1: right and it's interesting to learn more, But they've had

655
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 1: these conversations about what they would do. So they're obviously

656
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 1: planning like family planning right now and having conversations about

657
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 1: how they would navigate all this. So feels like, I mean,

658
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: not that we ever doubted it, but their relationship is

659
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 1: in a really good spot. And it's also really great

660
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: of Abigail to be doing this Instagram series because I'm

661
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 1: sure there's a lot of people out there who you know,

662
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 1: are watching it and feeling like, hey, they can relate

663
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,759
Speaker 1: less alone, all those things that are really good for

664
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:58,359
Speaker 1: the social media platforms to be used on. So interesting. Yeah,

665
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 1: there's lots to take from that, including that Noah and

666
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: Abigail are talking about kids.

667
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 2: One of the series that I thought was one episode

668
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 2: in the series thought that was interesting was her deaf accent,

669
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:11,479
Speaker 2: which I've never put it, you know, heard it put

670
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 2: like that before. But she says that, you know, the

671
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 2: way that she sounds when she speaks is different when

672
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 2: she has her implant in versus when she has she

673
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 2: has like the hearing aid and when she doesn't.

674
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, she has a cochlear implant.

675
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,919
Speaker 2: She has the cochlear implant. But I do think it's

676
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 2: funny that Beca and Thomas and then Noah and Abigail

677
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:39,799
Speaker 2: are both couples that didn't even leave that season a

678
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 2: Bachelor in Paradise together, But like perhaps it was one

679
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 2: of those situations in which, you know, they weren't ready

680
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 2: to get engaged, so then they were sort.

681
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: Of less pressure.

682
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 2: See yeah, they were like, if you're not getting engaged,

683
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 2: to get out of here, right. But now since there

684
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:58,799
Speaker 2: is less pressure in the real world and they can

685
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 2: like really grow that relationship naturally, it's two possible marriages

686
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 2: and babies coming out on for those.

687
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: Sounds like it, Well, that's all the headlines we have

688
