Big day today as we’ve got a podcast guest that I’ve wanted on since last summer, and the release of 7 more of Colton’s women on this season. Podcast #97 is with Danielle Lombard, someone who was supposed to be on when all the Dean/Kristina stuff was going on, but she gave an interview somewhere and was told to go media silent for a while, but here she is now. Definitely talked about a few things that weren’t shown or discussed on the show, plus she gives us a background of the whole love triangle with herself, Dean, and Kristina, how it affected her, and where everything stands now. And oh yeah, we find out if Chris Lane has slid into her DM’s too since he was the musical performer on her 1-on-1 in Wisconsin with Nick. Take a wild guess on what you think that answer will be. As always, if you’d like to respond to the Danielle interview, please include her Twitter handle (@daniellelombard) in your replies. A lot of fun talking to her. Glad we were finally able to do it. Hope you all enjoy her…

Page 2 will have 7 more women from Colton’s season. And yes, we have two more instances of these women knowing of each other.

I meant Colton’s guys. Stevie, when are you gonna add “edit” to this dinosaur page?

The lack of an edit option/button drives me a little potty! I too wish RS would sort this out.

I get that showing the girls ahead time is part of the gig. But it’s really hard to get much out of it until you see them in action. Except…. for the picture of the one girl with Colton. I don’t think it’s typical that there is a picture out of the lead and one of the contestants from before the show even started taping. My guess is that will create some drama.
And edit function would be nice. Also a web page that didn’t regularly crash my browser. But, hey, I guess I’m just picky about having fully functional web sites. I do think it’s possible to have a commercial site without a dozen ads, videos and pop ups per page & still make some decent bank. You don’t need to cram every ad into every page.

I’m looking at this pic of Danielle L. Back in the day, this would be the first pic of a pictorial spread in Playboy magazine.
So sad that the fashion for so many of these young ambitious women seems to be “slutwear”. Or certainly “slutwear-adjacent”. But I guess it works for them, because they seem to score spots on shows like TB, which can lead to some lucrative opportunities and even D-list celebrity-hood.

The lack of options and slow speed of this site is so annoying that I can only stand to visit the sight once every few weeks now. I think Stevo is being selfish and cheap. It has gotten worse than ever.

Rob22 and Upmyalley, at the risk of sounding like a broken record, you need a good ad blocker to navigate this site quickly and easily. According to the number at the top of my screen, mine is currently blocking 19 ads on Steve’s site. Nineteen ads! I can’t imagine how long I would have to wait for all of those to load properly.
That being said, he makes money from them in two different ways. Some, you have to click on them for Steve to earn anything. However, others pay a certain amount every thousand times they load, whether you click on them or not.
Someone like me, who uses an ad blocker, costs him money because the ads never get to load.

Honestly… who cares about Lombard? Or Dean drama from ages ago? Warming up and rehashing old news – lazy. And why mix podcast about old season with new info from new season in a single article? And post it all on a spammy disorganized website? Cmon Steve!!! For the love of please fix the site and get it together!!

@shenanigans, will do on the ad blocker. But when I’m accessing from my work computer, I get what I get. I’m restricted from adding new programs.

Can you share the name of the ad blocker? Is it pretty easy to set up? Thanks

Email Steve about the website. He’s said many times he doesn’t read comments on his posts. Maybe if enough of us email him he will fix the website up.

IMPORT BUSINESS? Lol! Trade show bimbo. She and Jenna should hang out. I pressed stop on the recording as soon as the intro was over. Fake boons are a requirement for the trade show hostess job. Prostitution common but optional. Barf.

I use ad block plus. Not one single ad. You can disable it per site if you need to. It is free and then have one for mac as well. . https://adblockplus.org/ . There are no ads that I see at all here, but my phone goes crazy with ads when I’m on this site.

I block ads on my laptop too, but I only visit this site is my phone… the ads are very annoying. However, this is how RS keeps his site free, so I tend to look at it that way. 😉

@tinyred: I don’t begrudge RS his ad revenue. I’m completely on board with his need for income. If he becomes filthy stinking rich off it, I’d salute him. I was really just thinking that the ads are very excessive. I don’t know another site that throws 19 ads at you. Especially since most ads are way more targeted today & usually based on your browser visits. It would seem that a smaller number of targeted ads would be more effective and more lucrative. The scatter shot approach just creates a lot of clutter that makes it less likely that you’ll click on an ad. They become a nuisance. You want ads to be obvious without becoming annoying. That line has been crossed on this site.

Total of 22 ads and not a single one of them prevented me from reading the entire blog 3-4 times a week. What’s more annoying is having useless comments that have absolutely nothing to do with the current blog. If you don’t like it just move on – there are plenty of other places to read Steve’s spoilers – the day after!

“rice rocket”?
How is that not a slur?
You keep it classy Danielle. Perhaps you and Ashley Spivey can get together for a podcast.

I’m going to try that ad blocker mentioned. I would never pay to visit this site or any other for that matter. If Stevo had to start charging for any reason, that would be the end of this blog for him. Ha!
