This is the Ben and Ashley I, almost famous podcast with Iheart Radio. It's another episode

of the almost famous podcast in another episode that Ashley is with us, and it makes me so happy. Another episode. But it's also bittersweet. You think this is your last episode? I think we could maybe do Monday morning, but in that, I'm going to call that my last probably episode. but you know what's really anxiety-ridden is that Jared isn't here right now in Virginia. He was here for a week and he is not supposed to come back until Monday morning. And I'm like, I don't know why I wasn't so nervous the first time. The first time when he was going back and forth, I just wasn't that nervous. I think it's because I think this labor is going to go so fast that if say like something happens in the middle of the night,

I don't think he'd make it. You know what? Here's how I think in life, as we get older, we have to look at a lot of these things. It might not be ideal, but it will be a story. And I know it really would bum him out not to be there for his child. At least it's the second kid, right? Yeah. It's the second kid.

What are you going to do? I'm kidding. I know what you're talking about. It would be kind of funny because Jared's staying on Sunday. Well, because he has a wedding after party, which goes to 1 a.m., but also because he has softball. So, like, you know, that'll be, that'll be the joke of life. Oh, I love it. I actually really respect this.

That's hilarious. He probably gets someone to cover for him at work that night if he didn't have softball. I really, I kind of respect him for this. It's like if you were at the Masters or something. Yeah, yeah. I had my like member guest golf tournament at my local club and I was like sorry honey I don't know if I can be within a thousand miles of you um he's within a thousand miles I think it's like 450 yeah it's close enough but we do have headlines uh there are some big headlines

out there especially kind of wrapping around now gin season of the bachelor just started this week we do have our breakdown episode out there now for you to listen to and also Ashley did a one-on-one with Jen. It's a great conversation that you can go listen to as well. Well, one of the things that Jen's been talking about recently is this. She's been discussing the pressure of being the first Asian bachelorette. And if she has any regrets so far. Okay, so she told me that she has no regrets.

And like I told you guys in the last episode, she's like, yeah, no regrets. Like, I'm content, right? But she didn't seem overly giddy when she said that she had no regrets. okay so you know ben in my theory you can go listen to it more um from you know the previous episode this week but our theory is that she doesn't end up with anyone um but then as far as the pressure of being the the first Asian bachelorette we talk about this on my Q&A with her and she said something along the same lines that she told bachelornation.com this week she said of course I feel the pressure um a lot of it comes from me wanting to be a good role model and

doing it right. It has so far been a season where I think you and I both would say we're very impressed within after episode one, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah, she did a great episode one. But we're both convinced that, yes, this season is not going to end like the others. Speaking of Bachelor contestants, Chelsea Vaughn shares dating update and reveals how many exes she's blocked.

Well, the last time we heard from Chelsea's love life. She had just broken up with Austin Tinsley, who was actually on Katie Thurston season of The Bachelorette. And they met on Bachelor in Paradise Canada. And they had just moved in together in New York or it was move in week, something like that. And then they broke up very abruptly. But she says that right now she's kind of over dating apps. She's trying to get her flirt on in real life, trying not to have an accident. mean mug out there walking around New York's trying to bring in the positive, flirty energy.

She also says that when, you know, when it comes to breaking up with somebody, are these guys blocked? Only one guy. And she said she'd barely ever consider him an ex because we weren't technically boyfriend and girlfriend. However, dated exclusively for a few months. Do you think that, like, if you weren't technically boyfriend and girlfriend, but you were exclusive? Isn't that boyfriend, girlfriend? Yeah. Like, how other way do you define that? I think it's, I think what she's probably referred to is more of an emotional connection.

Like when she looks back, does she look at it as a relationship? Or does she look at it as like, yeah, that was just like a weird fleeing thing? Yeah. Good job, Ben. You didn't. I don't know. I feel that. I get that.

I understand it. A couple of headlines coming out, obviously, about around one of the biggest things that happened, Bachelor Nation, this week. And that's the Hannah-Anne wedding. She marries Jake Funk in Italy. It was just the two of them. That's kind of surprising, honestly. She said her quote is, we decided it to just be us.

There's another headline out here, too, actually, that we can kind of tie together all into one. Hannah-Anne also is making headlines this week for her European honeymoon. So they had a European honeymoon and a wedding in Italy. Ashley, tell us all about it. I was also shocked seeing the pictures of the wedding. I know that she had had her bridal shower, bachelorette party and stuff.

But for some reason, I was just like, there was no posting from what I saw of them, like, leading up to the wedding day. And all of a sudden, we see the pictures of her in her wedding dress, and then we didn't see them with any guests. And I was like, huh, I wonder if it was kind of like an elopement. and it ended up being so she and jake did it together just the two of them in italy they are going to have a big party with friends and family in florida this coming month he is now he's on one of the

florida at afl teams so he's back at practice this week and they just said that for his football schedule it was best for them to do the wedding and the honeymoon back-to-back like that really quick and then do something in the States for the big celebration. So they went to Tuscany for the honeymoon as well as Switzerland. And Jake, Jake's last name is Funk. And there's this like chocolate funk place that he's been wanting to go to, no relation, in Switzerland. And they just did that towards the end of their chip.

And you can see on her Instagram the chocolate does look quite impressive. but yeah just a quiet wedding the two of them was very beautiful all the videography and photography but super small i think it's not i mean i get it right like you and i've talked about this there's a beauty to a big wedding some people want it there's also a really romantic uh and a very special i think i would imagine moment around it just being the two of you so congratulations uh to the two of them and you know good luck to jay is in his upcoming season. Oh, and I should mention that the vows

happened in a 12th century castle in Tuscany. Yeah. You could do worse. Yeah. You could do worse. My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly, and now I'm seriously suspicious. Oh, wait a minute, Sam.

Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit. Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now, he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone. Now, hold up. Isn't that against school policy?

That sounds totally inappropriate. Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age. And it's even more likely that they're cheating. He insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him? Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's boyfriend, really cheated with his professor or not.

To hear the explosive finale, listen to the OK Storytime podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Hi, my name is Enya Umanzor. And I'm Drew Phillips.

Everyone say hello Ed From a very rural background myself My dad is a farmer And my mom is a cousin So like it's not like What do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke

But that really was my reality nine years ago I just normally do straight stand-up but this is a bit different. On stage stood a comedian with a story that no one expected to hear. On 22nd of July 2015, a 23-year-old man had killed his family. And then he came to my house. So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? A new podcast called Wisecrack, where stand-up comedy and murder takes a

stage available now listen to wisecrack on the iHeart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts what would you do if one bad decision forced you to choose between a maximum security prison or the most brutal boot camp designed to be hell on earth unfortunately for mark lombardo this was the choice he faced he said you are a number a new york state number and we own you Shock incarceration, also known as boot camps, are short-term, highly regimented correctional programs that mimic military basic training. These programs aim to provide a shock of prison life, emphasizing strict discipline, physical training, hard labor, and rehabilitation programs. Mark had one chance to complete this program and had no idea of the hell awaiting him the next six months. The first night was so overwhelming.

and you don't know who's next to you and we didn't know what to expect in the morning nobody tells you anything listen to shock incarceration on the iHeart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts a bunch of uh bachelor girls got together for a bachelor girls trip we got jess we got kiley we got katie mercedes and a few others uh this was kind of shown all across social media. Mostly, if not everyone, was from Zach's shell cross season. These girls are still hanging out, still getting together a little bit surprising because we usually see that, you know, kind of initial hangout.

Everybody's best of friends. And then they kind of go their own separate directions. But these girls are staying close. Yeah, they said it's their annual get-together. And there's no awkwardness when it comes to Katie and Zach being together. all these girls having also dated Zach on TV, but including Gabby, who was his runner-up, and there was so much emotion there, they all flew to Austin just to visit Katie, and it seems like they're going to try to make a yearly thing about it.

Jess said in a caption that it was their annual reunion and friendships are the best kind of love. The absolute best kind of love. Well, speaking of love, we do have a little baby section coming up, Christina Mandrell and Brayden Bowers, along with Bennett Jordan and Romeo both appearing on The Bachelorette. Romeo is season 18 and Bennett was season 16, it looks like. They both welcomed little girls into the world this week. Now, we were expecting Bennett's daughter to arrive. He's been documenting it with his wife. for a while now, the pregnancy, and he's been doing some really funny TikTok reels.

Their baby arrived at 41 weeks on June 25th. Her name is Harper Lily Jordan. His wife held on in the baby for 41 weeks. He said that she's the most magical, awe-inspiring, precious, and perfect little bundle of joy. Very, very cute. And then this was way more of a surprise for me, seeing that Romeo, Alexander, who you remember having like some complications with romance and Bachelor in Paradise, not this past season, but the season before.

And yeah, so he actually got married in March. They hard launched in September. They got engaged in December. And then they had this little baby just a couple days ago. her name is josephine simone marie alexander oh and yes this the babies were born one day apart on she was born on jude 26 that's really exciting well speaking of babies emily ferguson carlson brainstorms baby names for baby boy number two her quote in social media is so helpful yeah so she reached out to you know everybody on instagram for baby boy name ideas. So they're really struggling with the baby boy number two names. As Jared and I have been very much, this is my word of advice to everybody out there

who plans on having two or more children. Do not name your first child's middle name, your second favorite name. It should be your third or fourth favorite name because Jared and I really are feeling the middle, Dawson's middle name as possibly being an option for our second son's first name. And I think that, not that Emily's having those contemplations, but just having a hard time with the name. And then this really fun Instagram baby naming consultant named naming BB, B-B-E, B-E, B-E. came up with some baby ideas for Beckham's little brother.

Some of the recommendations include Brooks, Brigg, Bowen, Bodie, and Beale. If they want to have another B name alongside Beckham. And if Emily doesn't want another B name, this consultant is recommending Camden, Hayes, Kaelin, Grady, Lennox, Dyer, Stockton, Axel, and Steel as all names that would work for Emily and her husband William Carlson as they are kind of sporty

meets style. I had no clue there was baby name consultants out there. She did one for Jared and I. And she, of course, made it like pop culture theme. She was like, since Dawson is named after Jack Dawson, we could do this plus this, plus this.

And she suggested a name in that Instagram reel that my sister thinks that she might use for her future child that we never thought of before. So consultants might be awesome for this. It's very impressive.

Well, hey, also in the headlines this week, Katie Thurston made the headlines. She has been very open and very vulnerable about an event in her life that she hasn't really shared. I don't believe publicly before this. Headline is this. Katie Thurston opens up about sexual assault

and receives support from Bachelor Nation. The quote she uses is, My Pain has purpose. Yeah. So we don't have like a lot of details about when this happened, but we know it happened when she was living in San Diego, which was actually after her whole stint on the bachelor and bachelorette. so she yeah i saw this on social and i had no idea that this happened to her especially so recently

but let me tell you what she said on social i called 911 to report my rape they sent an officer to take my statement and then drove me to a special medical center to perform an exam i had two women with me one was a nurse the other one was my advocate they were kind and nurturing and patient I felt like a small lost child who was vulnerable and scared. They thoroughly examined the process asking for consent along the way, allowing me to decide or change my mind at any time. She said that she was given a blood draw to check for STDs, drugs, and other blood alcohol concentration.

Katie was also given Plan B, a shot for bacterial infection, drugs to treat possible STDs, and a medication to treat possible HIV exposure. Katie said that this was all provided to her at no cost regardless of her insurance situation and when Katie lived in San Diego she was offered an online tracker for her exam so she and it took four months to complete this whole cycle and during the waiting period Katie worked with the therapist who specializes in treating victims of sexual assault and engage in other community resources she also shared a book on social that she found to be helpful

at this time. She goes, I did everything that I should have done as a victim of rape. I shared all my text, calls, videos, photos, names, witnesses, location, timestams, surveillance footage, DNA, everything. And I was still warned that a guilty verdict is hard in criminal court. Well, she doesn't make clear whether or not this court, there has been a moment in court. She does feel stuck, like, stopped in this fight. She goes, it's not a loss. This is not a loss to me. I am safe.

I am loved. I'm supported. Yet another loss in a broken system. Change happens. And failure in the justice system failed me and continues to fail thousands every single day. But do not give up. So, yeah, this is awful, awful news. So sad.

I feel so bad she's gone through this. Her comments underneath are filled with support from Bachelor Nation. Susie Evans, Caitlin Bristow, Tisha Adams. But yes, thank you, Katie, for sharing the story, despite it being probably the worst experience of your life. Well, Katie is also speaking this week about how she found her forever kind of love with boyfriend Jeff R. Curry.

That's right. They have been together since January when she teased the relationship. and then she soon after went on a podcast where she said it's she said it's not quite love yet but she was very much enjoying the time together and now she goes in you know June July we are past we are maybe not past the honeymoon phase but we are in our full-blown weirdo phase and they're just completely comfortable with each other and like she says this is her hopeful forever love she's found him

it's a big deal my boyfriend's professor is way too friendly and now I'm seriously suspicious oh wait a minute Sam maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit well Dakota it's back to school week on the okay story time podcast so we'll find out soon this person writes my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot he doesn't think it's a problem but I don't trust her now he's insisting we get to know

each other, but I just want her gone. Now, hold up. Isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate. Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor, and they're the same age. It's even more likely that they're cheating. He insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him?

Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's boyfriend really cheated with his professor or not?

Tell you how to manage your money again. Welcome to Brown Ambition. This is the hard part when you pay down those credit cards. If you haven't gotten to the bottom of why you were racking up credit or turning to credit cards,

you may just recreate the same problem a year from now. When you do feel like you are bleeding from these high interest rates, I would start shopping for a debt consolidation loan, starting with your local credit union, shopping around online, looking for some online lenders because they tend to have fewer fees and be more affordable. Listen, I am not here to judge. It is so expensive in these streets. I 100% can see how in just a few months you can have this much credit card debt when it weighs on you.

It's really easy to just like stick your head in the sand. It's nice and dark in the sand. Even if it's scary, it's not going to go away just because you're avoiding it. And in fact, it may get even worse. For more judgment-free money advice, listen to Brown Ambition on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. What would you do if one bad decision forced you to choose between a maximum security prison or the most brutal boot camp designed to be hell on earth?

Unfortunately for Mark Lombardo, this was the choice he faced. He said, you are a number, a New York State number, and we own you. Shock incarceration, also known as boot camps, are short-term, highly regimented correctional programs that mimic military-based. training. These programs aim to provide a shock of prison life, emphasizing strict discipline, physical training, hard

labor, and rehabilitation programs. Mark had one chance to complete this program and had no idea of the hell awaiting him the next six months. The first night was so overwhelming and you don't know who's next to you. And we didn't know what to expect in the morning.

Nobody tells you anything. Listen to shock incarceration on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. A couple other here, big, really big headlines that we kind of want to finish with. The Bachelor's Sarah Heron gives birth to twins. Yeah, this is a huge one. Massive.

Yes, so congratulations to Sarah. We are so, so happy for her. She and her husband lost their baby Oliver at 24 weeks, I want to say. a little over a year ago, a year and half ago. And she has been going through IVF treatments, fertility treatments for three to four years now. And she finally has her two twin girls, they're Everett Ray and Colette Rose.

They will be going by Evie and Coco. They were born on July 1st. They're fraternal twins. They were born early, 32 weeks. They'll be in the NICU for a while. but they are doing very well just this this morning or yesterday morning they took a whole bottle and for preemies at that age she said that that is a really great step to take in the NICU and just shows like a lot of positivity she is she's just super happy and it's really great

to follow this story along on social media so congratulations to Sarah and Dylan we couldn't Not be happier for you guys. Like, you deserve the world and these two beautiful babies. Well, speaking of something really exciting, Chase McNary got married this last week to his longtime girlfriend, Ellie. This is a very exciting announcement. And I know they're both very, very excited to get married because they've been dating for a while now. Mm-hmm. They've been dating since 2020.

And they got married on Saturday, July 6, and he had less than traditional ceremony. the whole theme was that they were going to be getting married at, well, love reaching new heights because they got married at 11,500 feet. Ben, that's like three miles in the sky. This is, and it was in Colorado, so I ask you as if you know these things. It's like three thousand, is three miles in the sky? It's pretty normal around there? Well, it's not quite three miles in the sky.

Okay. More like two and a half. Oh, okay, 2.1. but it is very high. I mean, that's, you know, very high, but it's also not uncommon. A lot of, there's a lot of really cool spots. They got married in Dillon,

Arapaho Basins, Mid Mountain Lodge in Dillon, Colorado. I've been to A Basin, we call it out there in Colorado, very many times. It is absolutely beautiful, and it is a crazy, cool place to ski. And in fact, this time of year, there's still snow on the mountain, typically, where they're just finishing ski season.

So a really incredible place. And everything was super lax. They wanted to be super fun, casual. It was a weekend full of people that they love, just kind of chilling. They did not want us to form a wedding. So that's not them. The two of them, like I said,

have been together for four years, engaged for two. And that's what we got. Happy, happy wedding week. Congratulations, guys. not so shocking headline that might shock others that it's not so shocking to

those involved final headline of the day is this. Bachelorette Jen Tran and Kelly Rippa's discussion about dating on TV gets awkward baths. Ben save the juiciest

headline for last because well, Ben has met Kelly Rippa has done live the show before. I love watching Kelly and Mark. I love Mark Consuelos, huge, I mean, not huge crush, but I think he's very swoon-worthy, always loved seeing their marital dynamic on the show. As soon as he started co-hosting with her, I've watched the show much, much more. And it disappoints me when I see that Kelly Rippa has

such an axe to grind with The Bachelor franchise. Every time we have a lead, go on the show to promote it, she always seems to be so skeptical of maybe not a little bit of the lead in their decision to be the lead. And also just the process, she just seems to like really shame the show. There's so many reality shows out there that are so much more trashy. And she loves to pick at The Bachelor and Bachelorette. Ben, like, I know. I know. I know that you have a little bit of an experience. I don't know if you want to share, but when you were on the show, Kelly also questions you very similarly than she did with Jen, which I'll tell you guys what she did with Jen in a minute.

Yeah, she definitely doesn't like the show. I don't know if they like denied her her Bachelorette role at some point or something. She just doesn't like the show. And so it always makes, if you look back on past seasons, it just makes for an awkward interview, I think is the best way to say it. because, like, you're sitting there as this, you know, fan of her and the show. You're excited to be there.

You've gotten this wild opportunity to be on reality television and be a lead on it. And you feel like, hey, life is really fun and exciting right now. And there's so many people that I can name that are just, like, super accepting of it. They understand that it's weird. They understand that it's not common. They understand that it's a very odd thing. to have happen but they're still very nice to you

and it's just if you look back on past interviews with past leads on the Kelly live show it always gets awkward because it's always questioning and it puts you in a weird place to have to respond

to questions that you don't really you can't really answer yeah I get it it it's not traditional yeah I get it this isn't what I would have expected for my life do I think I'm going to find love here I sure hope so I don't really know

but it definitely got awkward gin And it's kind of the first time that Elite has spoken back. Yes, she fought back a little bit. Now, it's all playful, but because we know Kelly's history, it's tongue-in-cheek more than anything. Yeah, like, because we know her history with these comments, like, we know she really means them, but it does feel, like, on-TV playful and not, like, super scary. But I do like the way that Jen kind of questioned her back. So what happens is Kelly.

says, why, why would you, why would you go on this show? You're so beautiful. You can find a guy here or there. I just don't understand. Drop dead gorgeous. Why, why, why? Um, and then, then Jen goes, well, didn't, where did you meet your husband? And they met on all my children. And then she was like, on TV, no? And then Kelly was so quick to shut down the comparison being like those are not the same we were both professional are you acting on your show i didn't marry mark's character matteo santa's i married mark consuelos not untrue but i do think i think the bigger picture is you can find love in the most random and the most unexpected places yeah and it's you know it's just a little offensive to us who have found there you go

Ashley should go on there and tell her that Hey, until next time I've been there. I've been Ashley next time if I'm here I'm here soon I still won't be able to breathe well if you've been able to tell but then in a month or so

I should be able to rock breathing again so I'm really excited about that guys Ashley best luck as always we're going to sign off until well you aren't here with us If it happens between now and the next time we're record, I sure hope it doesn't, because that would mean there's a fiasco with Jared.
