We have so much good content coming your way. And, well, headlines are definitely a part of that. Now, the first headline is this. Jen Saviano surprises Bachelor Nation with Wedding Elopement video. This is according to Bachelor Nation.
Starting point is 00:03:09 Jen Saviano is one of the most spectacular contestants of all time because she was a part of Season 20 of The Bachelor, which I just happened to be The Bachelor on. I love following Jen on Instagram. She definitely teased a week before releasing the wedding video that she was kind of eloping in Italy. She said something about, like, them heading to the place where they got engaged, something like that.
Starting point is 00:03:36 And she posted a whole bunch of wedding content in, like, long form. A couple days ago, first, she had the boys because her son was part of the wedding. It was truly just, like, it was a real elopement. It was by the tree in which they got engaged a year or so ago. and then just she and her husband Landon they are there with their son who just turned three and they exchange wedding vows under this tree
Starting point is 00:04:08 and she had the most spectacular dress it was not an elopement-feeling dress it was so, it's so beautiful, so princessy you have to go check it out but she has a lot of long-form content on her page This is a headlines episode full of Bachelor Nation All-Stars. Kayla Quinn reacts to rumors husband Nick is cheating on her.
Starting point is 00:04:33 She reacted on her social media. This is according to e-news. She actually didn't react on her own social media. She reacted to somebody else, their video on TikTok. There's this TikTok out there that was basically compiling a whole bunch of information that was posted on The Bachelor Reddit. She's, yeah, she's collecting all of her information from there. There's this one woman who started a Reddit thread saying that she was having an affair
Starting point is 00:05:02 with Kayla's husband. So this girl just relays gossip on TikTok. And then Kayla commented under that saying, what the fuck is this? This isn't true. My husband doesn't go on business trips. The original poster was saying that he's been cheating on business trips. She said, is a joke. No one believes these rumors. These are false.
Starting point is 00:05:23 The Golden Bachelor's Susan Knowles. Goodness gracious, if we had that little audio of hands clapping and people cheering, it'd be time to put that into this podcast. The Golden Bachelor, Susan Noles confirms new relationship with man she met on Tinder. This according to us weekly, Ashley, in addition to this, I would assume this means that Susan Noles will not be in paradise. Literally shocked. And she already said she was going to be. in a bikini. They were. Come on, we miss out on that.
Starting point is 00:05:54 They were teasing that she would be in a bikini and that Kathy, her best friend, would be in a one piece. But on their podcast this week, the happy hour, golden hour, she confirmed that she has a wonderful new boyfriend that she met on Tinder. She said she's been holding onto the secret
Starting point is 00:06:10 for a little while. She said she did meet someone. I know I've been talking about being single because I didn't know where this was going, but I know what I felt. and that I wanted to make sure that we were on the same page
Starting point is 00:06:24 and now I could share that we are and they are together it's a man named Frederick he's 71, four years older than her and he speaks very little English apparently however the two of them have been able to communicate through a translation app very fun
Starting point is 00:06:43 I can't believe she likes this guy like I'm sorry Susan you know you love attention we could call it out I can't believe she likes this guy more than she likes Bachelor in Paradise, you know? And I respect that. Yeah. I'm just so sad for Kathy. Oh, she's got to do it solo.
Starting point is 00:07:00 She has to be so sad. Oh, there's such good friends. So, such a beautiful couple Kathy and Susan were. Ari and Lauren Lyingdike revealed the gender of baby number four. This according to Bachelor Nation, at least, is where we get some of these pictures. It's adorable, like most things that Lauren does on her social media. Yeah. Gender number four. Gender of baby number four is a girl. I am not surprised by this at all in leading up to this announcement. Lauren and Ari did one of those videos where it was like all the symptoms. Like, am I nauseous? It's a girl. Am I breaking out? It's a girl, you know? And then they also had the kids guess. Then they revealed that they'll be having a third girl. They have one boy. three girls now

She was at the
Starting point is 00:13:33 818 tequila pop-up tent at Coachella. Kendall owns 818, and Haley is one of Kendall's best friends. There's a picture of Kendall and Latia taking a selfie together.

And it's getting headlines like, hey, their three of them are now best friends. So it's working in Latia's favor. My headline is that I have a headline, by the way. Jared and I got our results from our pre-novo scans, which we did in mid-March. And we booked it right after the same week
Starting point is 00:14:14 that Kevin Mano was on our podcast telling us about how the pre-novo scan changed his life because he found out that he had something suspicious in his thyroid area a couple years ago. If you guys didn't listen to this podcast, he tells us this whole story. You can go back in our main feed to listen to his episode because he recently had his treatment for thyroid cancer and he's on the mend. But it was incredible because Ali booked a pre-novo scan for she and Kevin in Chicago, made like a trip out of it because she thought it. was such a cool thing and they found this like life altering finding um that he had something in his thyroid and because of that he went to the doctor very regularly to get checked out and it did
Starting point is 00:15:04 advance into thyroid cancer and because the pre-novo skin they knew to look out for it and you know potentially could have really saved him so jared and i went and we did pre-novo and it was a great experience. Oh my gosh, just like being at a med spa. It gives you peace of mind for sure. And as parents, you know, you want that extra piece of mind that you'll be there for your kids. It wasn't one of the reasons we did it. Jared's like always complaining about like a stomach ache or a headache. Or like he has like heart palpitations. And like we all know that a lot of this stems from anxiety. But we were just like, let's see if it's something physical or if it's something mental. and we got our results back a week or so ago,
Starting point is 00:15:47 had a meeting with a radiologist, and we were just, we just got a lot of peace of mind doing that the scans are pretty darn clear. There's a few little mild things just to keep tabs on, but nothing worth noting. Ben, would you ever do a pre-novo scan?
Starting point is 00:16:03 I'm assuming they probably have one in Denver. I have no idea if they have one in Denver. Yes, I would do one. Yeah, they're amazing.
