You are listening to the Daily Roundup here as part of the Reality. Steve Podcast, I’m your host reality. Steve, thank you all for tuning in on this Friday. Good show for you heading into the weekend. Taylor, Frankie Paul’s men were released. Potential men for the season 26 were released on the bachelorette Facebook page yesterday.
I will give you some notes on some of them. I have found most of them, I’ll probably finish the list off today, so pay attention to that on my social media channels. We’re also gonna talk about two group dates coming up that you in Los Angeles can attend for Taylor, Frankie Paul’s season. If you’re available, special forces last night, we’ll discuss maybe a little bit of survivor from Wednesday night.
I’ve got a 9 0 2 1 oh story for you. Not a story, but just something to relay to you and maybe I’ll get to a reader email that I got and we will get to that right now. So Taylor, Frankie Paul’s men were released on the Bachelorette Facebook page yesterday. I’ve told you about it since last week. I said filming begins this weekend.
I didn’t know the exact day, but as Monday passed and Tuesday passed and Wednesday passed, and we didn’t get Taylor, Frankie Paul’s men, and we know they released the contestants. Three days before filming starts. Well now it’s official filming will start on Sunday, which lines up with what I had heard is that I had heard the first one-on-one date of the season is on Wednesday.
So filming will start Sunday night, off day on Monday, group date on Tuesday, one-on-one, date on Wednesday, group date on Thursday, unless they do two one-on-ones in the first episode. But they haven’t done that in a while. But there you go. So. 26 men, potential Men for Taylor. Frankie Paul’s season were released on the Bachelorette Facebook page and I was able to find 19 of them yesterday.
There’s only seven guys that I don’t have right now. That is Dave, Doug, Marcus, Michael, Mike, rod, and Ron. So any information anybody has on any of those guys, send ’em my way. But I’ve given you 19 of the 23 and as I’m looking at my messages right now, I just found, I was just given information on Michael, so he’ll be the first one I post this morning.
Uh, I found 19 of the 26. Usually I do this in conjunction with bachelor data and we find everybody. In the first day, but Bachelor data, Susanna is in Nashville this weekend and she hasn’t had a chance to look at anything regarding this. So I had the help of, of somebody else who was able to find them for me and some other things that I had gotten, and we go from there.
But I’m guessing I’ll have the other seven, well now six. ’cause I have Michael, I just got him as I’m looking at my phone here at almost past midnight central time. So I wanted to go over some notes that. A couple things I shared when I gave all the men’s last names and Instagram accounts on my Twitter account yesterday and in my Instagram story.
Obviously the Instagram story ones will delete today, but if you just go to my highlights, they will be there all season long. The highlights on my Instagram, it’s under, what did I label it? I labeled it TFPs spoilers. It’s the first highlight on my Instagram page. All the guys are there, and they will be added there once I find the other six.
Today, but some notes about the guys, some are interesting, some are just facts and some there’s one that could be a kind of a big deal. I’m still waiting on confirmation of it though. Anyway, Clayton Johnson is a singer and what’s funny is it was sent to me that back in the day, he used to be in a band called, what’s the name of this band?
Stereo skyline. I actually, he was in a few bands, but one of the bands names was Stereo Skyline. And if you look at the pictures of these guys, I mean, I believe he is, Clayton now is 35 and he lives in Nashville. He’s a musician. But these pictures must have been from 15 years ago. He must have been 20 years old in this.
And it was four dudes that had, looks like Hanson hair. And the type of music they played must have been, I don’t know, metal or ska or something. But yeah, stereo skyline. He looks, put it this way, these pictures of him in a band of stereo skyline look absolutely nothing like he looks. Now, Brandon Purse HA is divorced with I believe two children, and he lives right now.
Even though it says Milwaukee, Wisconsin, I believe he lives, I was told he lives in South Dakota, but again, he’s got two children. So Brandon, per, you can just cross him off your list. He’s not winning this season. ’cause I’m guessing this guy isn’t moving to Utah. He’s got two children he has to worry about.
So just keep that in mind. Matt Carroll, 43 years old. He’s the second oldest guy this season. We’ve got a 44-year-old on this season. He’s the one I haven’t found yet. That’s Dave from Thornton, Colorado. Anyway, Matt Carroll 43 years old from Carmel, Indiana. He’s got three kids, I believe. So I guess we can cross him off the list ’cause he’s not moving to Utah.
Like if you’re gonna cast somebody with kids on this show for Taylor, Frankie Paul, I get it. They probably relate to her better. They’ve gotta be local. Why would a guy who’s got three kids and lives in Carmel, Indiana, move to Utah? And his kids are young. It’s not like his kids are in college. Brad Ledford, he dated influencer Cali Fuller, who’s got.
300,000 followers on TikTok. If you go to her TikTok or Google, Callie Fuller, Brad Ledford, you can see a lot of tiktoks that she made with him. Uh, I mean, they’ve been broken up I guess for a while now, and, but yeah, she is a pretty big influencer. She’s got like 150,000 on Instagram, but 300,000 followers on TikTok and she put him in a lot of her videos.
So can look for Brad. He’s probably looking to be an influencer. No big deal. Nobody cares anymore if anybody goes on the show to be an influencer. Conradina, if that’s how you pronounce his last name, was a former kicker for Stanford University, Stanford Football, and that’s all I know about him. I think he played, I think the years I saw was 2012 to 2016.
He was the kicker at Stanford. The name kind of rings a bell. You know, obviously I’m a huge college football fan. When I saw that last name, I’m like, I didn’t recognize it at first. Then I was told he played football at Stanford. I Googled him. I’m like, okay, I think I remember him. Joe Rallo is a. Gambling podcast host, so you can pretty much guess that he’s gonna be my favorite contestant this season and I hope he wins.
He works for Visen out of Vegas, which broadcasts out of the circa Sportsbook. So Joe Ralo, keep an eye on him, Josh Harward. He’s an interesting one because when I saw him yesterday, he was the first guy that I found yesterday, and it just so happens that Taylor, Frankie Paul follows him. Now I have heard some information regarding Josh Harward that I think is very, very interesting, but I don’t wanna run with it until I really get it confirmed.
But let’s just say there’s a reason Taylor, Frankie Paul is following him. The other guy that I have information on or facts about him, this was obviously something that I posted yesterday when I posted him as a contestant. Trenton Merrill is a Paralympic athlete, compete in the Oly Paralympics, and he is an amputee.
I believe he is. I think his left leg is amputated from, I believe, above the knee. So. Interesting story for him, but Trenton Merrill is a Paralympic athlete. So that’s the information I have about what. Eight of those guys. Obviously I will get more because yesterday when I was getting last names, my only goal was find their Instagram and just put out their last name and their Instagram.
I’ll deal with getting information about the guys, whether it’s problematic or it’s positive, whatever the case may be. I worry about that later. I just want to get you all 26 men and then filming starts on Sunday. Those guys will be off the bachelorette Facebook page, but they will be in my highlights and still on my Twitter account come Sunday once filming starts.
