This is the Benn and Ashley I Almost Famous podcast with our radio. Hello guys, welcome to the second Almost Famous podcast this week celebrating Claire Crawley's upcoming season, which debuts on Tuesday. We're happy to be with you. Uh double the dose this week? Hello Ben, what's going on? Ash Hey? This is a huge week. On this episode, we have Tinley, Eric Bigger, and Luke Pell all talking about Clear Season. Obviously, all of us are getting very very excited. As if you listen to the episode earlier this week. Uh, you knew we were confused because we've always thought there was two bachelorettes, but because right now we only know of one of them confirmed, this will be celebrating Clear Season until we know differently. Quick reminder, our episodes will be airing on Tuesday nights. Uh from here on out because the show is airing on Tuesday nights and uh and we don't want to spoil anything for you. Ashley big stance, Uh, just a little bit over a week ago. Um from The Bachelor leading up to Claire season. Obviously, bullying, which was what we talked about on the last episode with our Facebook group. Uh. Any type of hate filled comments Uh, well, the Bachelor will now start blocking hateful and racist trolls from social media. This according to Vulture, Yeah, this is interesting, of course. I we don't want anyone saying the horrible, ruthless things that a lot of contestants of The Bachelor do get on social media. I wonder where they're going to draw the line, though, I guess that's just my only question, Like does criticism get deleted or is just pure hatred get deleted? Because yeah, just like where if somebody is criticizing but not in a super malicious way, is that considered something to be deleted? It's it's gonna be interesting. Uh, kudos to the Bachelor. I mean, obviously has been a year of learning and growth and reflection and all of those things, and a lot of also really hard things for many people. Uh, but uh, the learning piece of this has been something that I I do see the Bachelor trying. And that's you know, if you go back a few months ago when we started to broach this subject of what does the Bachelor need to do? What does this franchise need to do? Um, they're trying, and I think, uh, I think that's something to be celebrated. Um, and something to be admired, but they will start blocking hate filled and racist comments that according to Vulture once again, well hey Ashley, uh, we don't have any time to pause in this episode because it's action packed. There's a ton to go through and uh and Timley is on the line now, Tinley Leopold, are you officially now going by your married name? Looks like you dropped moles on everywhere. I am um legally, I am Leopold animals on. So it's a little confusing because I haven't gated to the d m D. The dm D. It's a little bit of the hard hard part. But social security on Instagram. I'm trying to be ty Leopold, but Instagram still only let it change. Oh well, you guys know Tonally fourteen season of The Bachelor, on my season of Bachelor in Paradise to um, you are a total friend to this show. You're a regular. We appreciate you. And you just had a baby girl on what was it? What was her birthday? September and her name is Rell. Well, James, how is motherhood treating you? What the past couple of weeks been like? So yesterday she officially turned two weeks old, which is just crazy that two weeks is blown by UM. We are adjusting very well. The only she's been a perfect little baby. She does really good at night, We get good stretches of sleep and gen and Um is usually alert during the days except for these little stretches of nap time. So, UM, I had a really hard pregnancy, and I feel like God is just kind of redeemed that with how precious and good she is right now. I know things can change, but we're doing We're doing pretty good. Two weeks in. UM, I'm the only one with issues I actually have. They kept us in the hospital one extra day because UM, I have some strange medical stuff going on that they don't even know. I feel great, but we're gonna get down to those issues, UM hopefully to speak. So I'm the only one with problems as a girl who's terrified of delivery and plans to hopefully have to deliver one day. How did that go well? My birth story I will share another time because it's a little bit long. I mean it's thirty something hours. UM and I went natural for twenty like twenty nine hours because that was my birth plan was no medication, not so not nothing and to power through, and oh my goodness, it was oh steep girl. Um, she it took. It took a long time. Um, it's it's a little too much to explain. But after twenty nine hours it was like we needed to make room for something else. So we went ahead and UM, I got the epidural, which I was so I'm so grateful um and also proud of myself for the antailor for the twenty nine hours that we went through. He was a rock. Um. There was a lot of prayer. I played worship music. His mom is a retired duellet. So we were over and purject with nobody freaks out with the temperature turned down. Um, and we just labored for twenty nine hours and ended up in the hospital thinking she was coming in like an hour, and then maybe eight more hours later or more than that, she finally came into the world. So we thought she's gonna be born September nineteenth for sure, especially since I went into labor on the eight. So it just doesn't work like you you imagine it for your first especially is that I've hear heard so but she's here. Where are we going to get this birth story? Um? Well, I will try to tipe it up or share it somehow eventually while it's still fresh. Um. But Tayler remembers more of it than I do, just because I was in a zone, um, which is really incredible that we're capable of doing so. So Ashley, You're going to be a champ no matter what. And the epidural, Um, I was so so afraid of that needle. Go ahead and do what I'm I'm not afraid of the needle. I'm a daughter of an antithesiologists and I've been banking on the epidural since i was born. There you go, Well, that's perfect because I will say did it did make a difference once? It wasn't? But and I'd be happy to share the full birth story, but I think it would be along women might be too much for men. Tears actually know Ben Hattan, Ben knows his anatomy. Yeah, this podcast. I learned a lot about this podcast, um, or just about everything from this podcast. I would like to pause here and say, Tilly, you aren't our only guest right now. Rel is in your arms as we watch you via zoom. She is sleeping comfortably right now. And uh, she is beautiful, like absolutely gorgeous. Congratulations. Uh, what a cool deal. And uh and when you do type this story up, please make sure to at least send us a message so we can share it through our channels, because I know that's something that most people will be interested in falling up on. Alright, perfect, I'd be happy to Um. It was. It was quite a story. Um, so I'm proud of it. She came in the world, she's healthy, she's good, right right, Well, Tinley, we have to talk about Claire season coming up. Uh. Yeah, So Claire has is the Bachelorette, and I was we keep saying it, but I think it's important. As of right now, she's the only bachelorette that we have been confirmed on. So as you look forward to Claire season, what are your thoughts. Well, I have been so excited for Claire since the day that they announced her. In fact, I think I had told Ashley or I told you guys this before or something, but it was like a month before she was announced that I just had this feeling. I had said it to Taylor, um, and he's had the privilege of meeting her once and I was just like, I have this feeling of Claire. There was nothing about it, and uh she was announced, I was just like, yes, this was this is so meant to be. So Um, I'm kind of bummed and excited for the merger, but very very excited to watch Claire just in her own element as the bachelorette for as long as we get to see her as the bachelorette for Mercy true and um, they think they are, but I just think that she's going to be so solid and Claire is that kind of She's just a woman who knows what she wants and I think we're going to see that. And I think that if again, if the rumors are true, that is so claire like it to be able to go ahead and and go for her heart's desire and that's what it's about. Um. So I can't wait to see it all unfold and hopefully there's a really true love story, maybe two love stories that we get to watch coming up. And um, just hoping and cheering for her and just really excited to see her in action Tenley. If Claire does leave after a couple of weeks, as as rumors are saying, because she did find love so quickly and couldn't perhaps fake it with anyone else. How do you feel about that decision? I think it's honestly, it's never been done before because well, there's a lot at stake. But I think it's pretty realistic. So I'm really I'm really excited to see her and just follow her heart. UM. I'm not upset about it. I think that, UM. I think it will be really interesting to see how it plays out for sure. UM. But like I said, I think it's very clear to stick to her guns and go ahead and be like, I can't fake this. I won't fake it. I'm out. And I've also had like a theory that maybe this was all something that was to happen, um, or like that they kind of knew was gonna happen. She said, Hey, you feel that way. Yeah, I feel like I wouldn't put it past them to be like, well, clear, we've been in a bachelorette. If you've fallen in love with somebody, we're gonna go ahead and make it work. We're gonna make a story out of it and then have whoever is next coming um, perhaps Tasia um, and then her love story takes somewhere. So I'm just really excited to see how it unfolds. But like I keep saying, it's just I feel like it's very clear just to follow her heart and to not fake anything and not do anything for the cameras or for Instagram or anything. Just be Claire. So that's what I'm thinking. It's gonna happen, or it could have happened. I have the same theory though, and I'm not I'm not mad about it, Like I want to see if they tell us, hey, Cleare's your bachelor at and we get out there and we support her and then she falls in love in between there somehow, some way. I think it's great if they allow us to see it or allow us to get a glimpse of it. What I'm confused by is within the last few days, we started an episode earlier, uh this week by talking about how Chris Harrison says it's clear season and now we're hearing rumors at it. You know, we don't hear Tassia rumors, and so I think I'm just confused. But either way, we're gonna get to see hopefully I'll love story play out, and that's something that's something cool. Yeah, but what does he mean by like they're showing us you blew up the Bachelorette. Yeah, so I'm excited. Oh yeah when he says that in the teaser. Yeah, but again, I can always come back to the jumping the fence, like, when's that gonna happen? What's happening? Technics? Well, the fence job lived up to the hype, in my opinion, is true. That is true? Right well, Tinley? Uh, again, congratulations. We look forward to many nights of you and rel uh and Ev Taylor watching The Bachelorette, celebrating Claire. Keep us updated. Uh, just an awesome story and uh and I'm I don't know, I speak on everyone's behalf and say, we're all celebrating you. Yeah. And Tinley, I'm just gonna throw the idea out there if you and Taylor to come on this podcast and do it in depth of your relationship and your birth story, we would love that. I would absolutely love to do an in depth It might be a little bit of pulling teeth for my introverts slightly introverted husband, Um, but I think that he would be really excited for me to get to share or maybe he'll spit by me for a little bit of it, but would be Yeah, that'd be a really good way to just get the chat and catch up. But hey, you're the best. Thanks for coming on. Thanks guys, good to see you both. You too, You see you later. Actually, let's talk a second about so No Bellow. I've got my mom's nose, Ashley.

Our next guest is another Uh, one time and the only time so far winner game a lum Uh. He spent time with Ashley and I in Vermont just a few short years ago when our lives looked a lot different. Uh. He was able to spend time with Claire on that season Get to know her as a person, but I also know he has some stuff of his own going on. Eric Bigger, Welcome back to the Almost Sumeest podcast. May In. It feels good. How you guys doing. We're good? How are you most phenomenal? You know? Amazing. So we're having a whole bunch of people on this week to celebrate Claire because her season premieres next week. Um, you were not in the Bachelor Winter Games house long, but based on a couple of days you did get to hang out with Claire. What was your impression? Um, Claire and I actually got into it. People don't know, you know. As I was saying those words, I was like, I think that there was something sort of monumental there. Yeah. I actually like Claire. I think she's she's authentic. M she's real. Um, she's about her business. Um, she says what she feels and thinks. And she's a Pisces. If I'm not mistaken. I think her birthday is March. So I'm a Pisce. So actually you're so, I kind of know how we are. We're emotionally sincely, why do I feel like she's she might be an aries, She's gonna cuss. She she's like the first day, she's last day, piscey. Yeah, she's on. But um, I mean she's solid, you know. I think she's she's a woman. That's what you called a woman right there. Um, she ain't for no bs, she ain't playing no games, and she here to claim her territory and what she needs. So um, Claire is just a genuine, good, real soul. That's how I would like to, you know, describe her. But yeah, you got into an argument. So what was that? Yeah, I was telling her. I think I was telling her. I said, why is your guard up so much? You got your guarden? What is that about? And I think it got to a point where she told me about like the past season she was on if I'm not mistaken, And we talked about her dad. For a moment, we had like a D D D deep deep combo was like off like camera. Um, maybe they caught some of it, but it was like a deep and then we kind of had like claimed it up. It was cool. We just I don't know, we had a moment, but I remember that day in Vermont by the fireplace, and she wasn't she was letting me I had it I don't know the initial conversation reaction, but I know it was something about her having her guard up and maybe I have my guard up. I know it's something around those I mean, this is what three years ago, so it's been a while. But but she's UM, yeah, that that was the conversation. And then I think we all expect those honest, authentic moments to come from Claire as her season approaches. I don't think any of us are not thinking that if if somebody says something that maybe she disagrees with or comes out that she will not stand up and put her foot down. I think, and you know, we've said it many times, but I always have the theory that you know, the it doesn't it doesn't matter if the Bachelor or batch her is likable, like they can always be likable on TV. I think the mark of a really good Bachelor Bachelor is how they react to really difficult situations. And that's why I've always thought Clear is gonna be terrific at this um and I'm excited to watch it. And I mean she has experienced, She's been through every damn near phase of the franchise, from the first show to uh Bachelor Paradise. Uh did she go to bachel Paradise? And then she did a bunch of games she had what's this guy? Ben? Why is it balks walking? Yeah? Everybody yet the engagement Like so she literally has been through damn here every emotion now and it's time for her to get that crown and you know, find her king and live happy after. So I think it's timing. You know, timing is everything, and it's her time and I'm here and we all are here to celebrate her and her love. So I can't wait. You know. The anticipation must be like intense based on everything else that's going on in the world. And m the plot twists, I call it the plot twist. Uh yeah, so it should be fun the plot twist of her season or the world. Oh yeah, oh right, I just but you know this should be It's going to get some eyes for sure. I know I'm watching. So hey, I told twelve right, okay, a day off. Yeah, it's gonna be on Tuesday this year or this season, I guess, at least for the time speaking. Uh, Eric, before we let you go here, what have you been up to? Uh? What what do you have going on that our listeners can catch up with. Uh. Well, I just recently published a book, a workbook, UM called Transformation. Change your mindset, change your energy, change your life. Chris ran Dolin myself published the book together. We wrote it together over the pandemic and it's on Amazon and get it at Amazon. And the intentions is to help people get out of their own way and get a great understanding of who they are. So you have tools and you have exercises to do to become your best self and transform. It's miracle season and I've just been working on work. Um. I got another book coming out, a quote book, uh, probably the end of this year. So I'm just creating products and doing the best I can with what I am saying. The attitude is gratitude. Well, I want to know about your attitude. Based on one of Chris Harrison's two quotes this week, he said that it's Claire season, Um, how do you feel about that? If Tasia does end up taking over at some point in the in the season. I don't really had no feelings towards that. Mean maybe it is. I mean I don't. I can't. I can't say it's not because I wasn't there to know the famine process of what's going on. Of course that was the initial thing that it was Claire season. We're going to represent her um and I'm pretty sure at Age will get some support as well. So I don't really even the comment is so like general and vague, like the hundred percent her siege, I don't even know what that entails? What does that really mean? I would ask Chris Herson, what are you really saying? Elaborate on that, like what contexts are you saying that? Because you can look at it so many different ways, But I always believe that we it's easy to look at something one way and have opinion, all being entitled to feelings, but we don't really know what he's thinking when he said that. So I have a follow up question, like, Chris, what does that actually means? Is a hundred percent Hersey and what aspect are you saying? Because you can anyone can interpret it any type of way. But I don't think he's like not thinking about Tajia. That's not that that's not who he is, so, but it are so we're more just curious, that's uh that that quote is interesting because we've always thought tastious coming on Uh, and I still think that we just don't know how, when, where and what capacity. And we're pumped for this season because, honestly, Eric, when they said, hey, it's gonna be in one location and they announced like, I don't know the a million guys that we're going to go on to her season at one point, where like we don't know what this is gonna look like or how this is gonna be good. And now we're convinced and everybody's super pumped about clear season of The Bachelor at potentially Tastia's who knows at this point. Um, Eric, you're the man. Thanks for coming on. Good luck with these books. Uh, keep writing, keep sharing, keep spreading positivity. Thanks for coming on the Almost Same As podcast once again. We'll be talking to you very soon. Thanks for having me. You guys be phenomenal. Continue all this success because it's Almost famous podcast. You Can Change your mindset, change your energy, Change your life is on Amazon now, Yeah, go get it. Transformation, peace and love. Thank you guys. See buddy all right. From one Winter Games star to another, we have Luke Pell on the line. Hey Luke, thank you guys. How are you today? We're good. It hasn't been long since we had you on the podcast. You were here recapping JoJo's season episode of the Goat season. Um, but we want you here again, of course because you are a friend of ours, a friend of a pot of our podcast. And um, you were with Claire on Winter Games with us, and she you know, she was there for a long time. You were there for the entire time. And do you have any stories about Claire that didn't make air? But you think are we're sharing? Clear? Um, No, I didn't make air. I think most of those made air that I saw. But yeah, I mean the first thing that pops up is when you know her whole hot hub, the back off, uh what was his name, blanket? His name Christian was a Christian Yeah, and uh yeah, I mean so that's at that point. That's why I was like, well, Claire, she's not she's gonna take any any funny business from anybody. She's pretty serious about Yeah, she put put him in his place. You're serious about it, and you know, or or don't come out with me with these weird games and stuff. So and he and he was upset too, I think, but it was just funny. Um. Claire was like you know, she was so experienced. I guess I don't know how many different Bachelor has been off that she's done, but that was her fourth, so this is her fifth. This will be her fifth season. Okay, yeah, so I mean she's been experienced in that world and and I guess the Paradise world as well, where you know, there's guys and girls and kind of that that house environment. And uh so yeah, I mean she was she was cool to hang out and that was my first time meeting her. Um was was in that experience, and we're getting to know her, and um you know, make sure to be where where her season goes. And it looks like preliminarily that there's going to be real drama and so I'm inclined for it, some real drama. And thanks for bringing up the Jacuzy drama. Oh you're supposed to me in the jacuz like you we're supposed to be in Jacuzi and you didn't come to the Jacuzi. It was. I was right there for that, watched the whole thing go down those well, I was that that whole show was was was an interesting experience to be living in a house with a bunch of people, having relationships. I don't even know. They were like mad at each other for probably two weeks of the time that they're mad at each other for dating or whatever. It was, Oh my gosh. There was a cultural barriers, language barrier, and that was definitely a huge logical in that house. So I was, I was. I was glad you guys were there. Do you guys remember how hard we cried when Yuki left. Oh yeah, she's the best. We were so emotionally drained after that. She was my favorite. That that was most fun of the whole experience with it, like hanging out with her, interacting with her. We cooked breakfast at one point, me and her. She showed me how to put sugar in some scrambled eggs. I never thought that that would be good at all. She was particularly into you two guys. She's really clung onto It was adorable. I was like, yeah, you've got great taste. I was already gone by the time Muku left, so I didn't have to cry for her departure. You were you? I think she left like hours after you? Yeah, yeah, yeah, she was. She was a good She's just a good, a good human. Um luke. Obviously it's not a secret. Has been a year of changes and slowdowns and shutdowns and and everything in between. Uh, you are a musician, you're an artist. How has your life been affected by everything? Um, over the last few months. I'm sure much like well out of us. You know, it's it's it's had the varying degrees of impact, you know, and they've kind of gone through these cycles where you know, at the very beginning it was a lot of uncertainty, and you know, everything starts changing rapidly and everything starts getting locked down, and it's kind of surprises you at certain times. You don't then the next week unfolds and then you're like, wow, this is a reality. You know, I have to kind of terms with it. And so um, you know in Nashville, all of these folks and the entertainment business, entertainment world there anything having to do with that. You know, their their lives have been impacted greatly. And uh, you know some of these people that was all that they were into as far as business in their life was just consumed by being in an entertainment world and that completely got shut down. So um, you know, my heart goes out to those folks, and uh, luckily I had, you know, some other things going besides music. You know, I've got the moving company that I worked with and and some commercial those states stuff that that I'm into. But um, but you music, you know, is it's such a community, uh, you know, gathering of bringing people together, and it's just been sad to see that just be kind of non existent. People try to do it online and streaming and whatnot. It's just it's been tough. So, UM, I hear the growns, like the country music community, and I think a lot of the music community general, they want to uh engage with people whenever we safely can do that again. Uh, they're literally looking forward to that at that time. So I know, I am the I mean you just mentioned it, and it's been a question I have just out of curiosity as a musician. If that was the only thing you have going on, uh, and you're not able to tour, how how much of your income life is attributed to touring? Or is there ways that these musicians are still making it? Is there ways that listeners can still support them? Um? Is there anything that anybody can do, including musicians, to like get back up and going again? I mean, they've had to get creative. You know. I was with a buddy yesterday who was, uh, he was making a living on songwriting and making a living off playing shows. He was on American Idol several years ago. Um and and and then that was his thing. And he moved down from Maryland or somewhere up northeast to be here in uh Nashville. And and he's completely had to um pivot and go back to working some other jobs in different industries and things like that to uh, you know, bridge the death. And so that has been a very common story that I've heard of a lot of guys house here in Nashville that um, you know had you know, their their their careers kind of put on hold at least for this year and and hopefully not too much longer than that. But yeah, Luke, you told us that you were single the last time you were on the podcast. Have you tried the dating, the quarantine dating that's going on. No, I haven't. Um, you know, I wanted time way to kind of just get myself right and I think through what was what was happening and where my life is going. And I'm at that point where you know, parents about you know, seasons of life that they're in and where I'm at. You know, it's one of the things I'm I'm looking for that next season of life where I can you know, have kids and have a family and and and not be in a perpetual uh cycle look of you know, being single and uh, you know, just living uh from trip to trip and and weekend the weekend. Those type of things that you know can kind of happen if you get into towns like Nashville or l A and New York where it's all about the vibe and what everybody, what the cool kids are doing and all that kind of stuff. So, um, I'm very much looking forward to that next season. But I haven't. I have not dated anybody else. Um, you know, I did. Um My Acts and I we we talked something through the summer, and we've spent some time together to try to you know, just come to peace and come to terms. I guess. So we're where we were ending off and what our path forward would be and if there was a chance that we could get back together and those type of things. And you know, at the end of the day, we loved each other so much and wanted to support each other as people and and and one of the best. So, um, that's kind of been It's just been a very slow summer of trying to you know, have quality relationships with everyone in my circle, you know, and and and refocused on what the future may hold. And I think that's been the silver lining for this this difference years and that's been forced upon us, is at the time to kind of reflect, you say, what, what what the purpose in your own life? You know, where were you at on that on that mountain of life that we're all climbing, you know, and where do you want to go from here? So I think that that's what it's been for me this summer. And I've had time to kick back and so the lake and make make new friends and get a new circles and give back to the community and do things like that that really matters. So that's that's been that's been my focus. Well, it's a great time for that. We just talked about earlier. The reflection piece of this time has been important. Uh and now you know, obviously uh at a different level, Um, but uh, the same sentiment is we will now have some time to kind of deflect and take our minds off of it, watching clear season of The Bachelotte that I know we're all excited to watch. Luke. Uh, we're wishing the best. Keep coming on the podcast, keep catching up. Um. Last question for you, just because I am intrigued.

These guys are definitely of the better age range than the first group, but you remember how many like twenty and twenty seven year olds there was in the first group. Yeah, so there's my question for you have do you know Ashley? Can you answer this question? I knew there are rumors they're recasting. We broke down her season months ago when they first announced the group. Are there any guys on this list that made it that we weren't even on that original list? I wouldn't. Oh, that's a great question. I don't know that I have the answers for you for that to compare um, but it's it's it's a very diverse group. It's good. There's some older than Claire, there's some younger than Claire. Um. We have a lot of different backgrounds, ethnic, ethnic backgrounds, here as well. So you guys, um Claire season, the whole cast is out there. You can go look at their pictures. Pick who you think is going to be in the lead. I'm gonna go right now with Page, a thirty seven year old chef from Austin, Texas. Maybe Jeremy the four year old banker from d C and uh, I'm going to keep it at that, just to just to go to for Claire. You know this is this is us not talking about Tasha, because I would have different picks for Tasia. Oh. Actually, I'm gonna add Bennett in. Bennett is the thirty six year old wealth management consultant from New York. That's for Claire. I'm gonna go, uh, Mike a digital media adviser from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I'm gonna go, Jeremy, a banker from Washington District of Columbia. And I'm gonna throw someone out there that I think can make it happen, Ivan Ivan, an aeronautical engineer from Dallas, Texas. All Right, sweet picks. I I truly went on agan profession there. But I also know that Claire she likes a guy younger than her too. So these twi year olds can definitely standard chance. I know nothing about these guys, nothing at all. We don't know much. We're flying on the seat of our pants. Guys. Hey, Ashley, this is great. Uh, It's gonna be a terrific season.
