Couple more. Love is blind thoughts. Friday’s recap is in your podcast feed, whether you listen on Apple Podcasts. Or Spotify. So go check that out. If you haven’t seen it or listened to it, it’s also up on my YouTube channel as well. And then I’ll be doing Thursday’s recap as well on my YouTube channel.
That’ll be put into your podcast feed on Thursday afternoon to cover episodes 10 and 11. But something that I wanted to to point out for those that may have missed it in regards to what I went over on Friday, it’s, you know. I came down hard on Chris. Everybody on the internet is coming down hard on him, but it’s because of the way he treated Jessica.
And you know, my hot take is I think people need to stop focusing on this whole thing about how he told Jessica, oh my gosh, I totally date women who do Pilates and women who like work out every day. That’s just a total cop out. It’s total bullshit. Like I said, I’m the podcast. I’ve spoken to two of his exes in recent weeks, Marta.
Who you heard from this last week and another ex of his, neither of them are Jim Gurley. So him, him just saying that has way more to do with his insecurities than it has to do with how Jessica looks. And I think we should probably lay off the, wait a second. But Brie isn’t skinnier than Jessica, or Jessica is barely bigger than Bree.
Let’s, let’s lay off that comparison because what. Chris said, has nothing to do with Jessica’s body. Absolutely nothing to do with her body, or the fact that she doesn’t go to the gym and doesn’t do Pilates, and doesn’t work out and doesn’t run marathons, or do Ironman triathletes. It had triathlons. It has nothing to do with that.
It has everything to do with the fact that he was completely scared off by her success. She’s attractive, she’s smart, she’s career oriented, and she’s successful. That absolutely is what Chris was scared off by. Not the fact that he wasn’t attracted to her, not in the least bit, but I think, you know, when people see him at the mixer hitting on Brie and they’re like, wait a second, why is he interested in Brie when her body, no, we don’t need to be comparing Brie and Jess’s bodies because Chris’s cop out with Jessica was her body.
It has nothing to do with that. Now the funny thing is. If you know Bree’s background, she’s pretty successful, just as successful as Jessica is. So Chris would be intimidated by her as well. I don’t think Chris is gonna be with anybody from this show. Pretty much nobody is a fan of this guy. The other couple that kind of made some media rounds last week were Alex and Ashley.
Ashley went on the vial files. And if you listen to her on the vial files, I saw a couple clips. Obviously I don’t listen to Nick’s podcast, but I do see the clips. They come across my for you page and she basically said, yeah, the sex conversation was very unnerving to her. She didn’t like it. Like really?
I have to explain. My menstrual cycle to you, and she sang this on Nick’s podcast. And then I saw Alex. Alex sat down for a three man interview. He was with Jordan and Connor, and this was, I believe, with US Weekly. It could have been one of those car wash interviews where they just sit down and a bunch of outlets come in and interview them like they do for.
Movies when the stars of the movie just sit there and have to just field questions all day long and they just sit in the same room, but the reporters come in and out. I think that’s what Alex and Jordan and Connor had to sit through. But this is one of the answers that Alex gave in regards to when he was being grilled by Ashley.
This is what he said in that interview,
felt more like she didn’t trust me because of the fact that she continued to ask and I continued to give answers. I feel like the only real times that she asked those questions were when the cameras were rolling, and outside of that, it wasn’t really, Hey, I really care about where you were.
So I, it to me to, in my opinion, it did feel as though you’re trying to catch me into something that isn’t here. And yes, when you are traveling for four to five years. Going to different places. You probably have to think about where was I on August 18th in 2022? I don’t know. I’m sorry. There’s 15 cameras on here and you’re asking that question.
I can’t answer it. I can’t answer it if I can go on my phone right now. So I do think it was one of those, you are trying to catch me in something that isn’t there and I don’t think she caught anything. I
So just listening to Ashley on Nick Al’s podcast and. Hearing Alex say that about Ashley, like you’re very well aware.
If you know the spoilers 3, 2, 1, these two are no longer together. They break up at the altar. I don’t know who breaks up with who at the altar, but we have seen footage of both of them there on wedding day. So there is a breakup and yeah, I mean this show can do what they want, but they’re not really hiding some things when it comes to people who don’t know.
The spoilers. Because Ashley was very critical about, of Alex on Nick’s podcast and Alex giving that answer right there. Would you really be saying that now, I know it’s a year later, but would you really be saying that right now about somebody who was your wife currently? No, you wouldn’t. Basically that she was trying to trap him.
She was only saying things when the cameras were turned on. It’s like, okay, they’re, they’re giving quite a bit away here I would think. And look, I mean, again, this is, this happened a year ago. They’re no longer together. But if you do watch the trailer, Alex and Ashley are clearly there on wedding day and they do not get married.
I do not know who breaks up with who at the altar, but they don’t get married on a wedding day. And these answers kind of lay it out there. And I don’t know if you heard Jordan. When Alex said, you know, I don’t know where I was, August 18th, 2022. I need to look at my phone. That was Jordan that was giggling, so he’s kind of siding seemingly with Alex on this.
Also. Moving on, let’s not forget, love Trapped the podcast. That’s going to cover the Clayton Eckard, Laura Owens. Fiasco drops this Thursday. There’s gonna be two episodes that drop this Thursday, and then one episode a week after that. There’s 10 episodes in season one. I spoke with the co, with the host of the podcast, Stephanie Young, who I did an interview with last summer.
She had said, yeah, it all depends on the response, the downloads on. If there’s going to be a season two, and even though I have not heard this podcast, I know it’s gonna be good just because of the amount of people that she has interviewed over the last six to nine months. And I would say for people that did get lost in the weeds of this story, because there’s so many different branches that came from this tree.
I mean, at first it just started out as, oh, a girl is accusing Clayton of impregnating her with twins. And then it just turned into this absolute circus of fake ultrasounds, fake sonograms, fake videos, doctoring of doctor’s letters. Missed appointments, appointments never made. I mean, I would think if you want to dive into this without having to go through two years of stuff on the internet and you know, not saying the stuff isn’t great to look at, but it’s just overwhelming.
There’s a lot there. I get it. So I think this is gonna be the podcast for you. Love Trapped Drops this Thursday. And it is hosted by Stephanie Young and she does all sorts of interviews with people affiliated with this, with this story. Clayton, me, Dave Neil, Rachel Juarez, Lauren Nay, I, so many people. I mean, it’s just everybody.
Susie Evans, I, so many people involved. The the lawyers involved because it just. This thing grew into, when Dave and I were the first content creators to start talking about this, back in September of 2023, we said it at the time, this is the biggest story in Bachelor Nation history, and most people were just like, huh?
What? Because it didn’t involve their favorite person, Clayton Nard. If I, if this story, if, if this exact same story and everything that happened in this Clayton Laura Owen story happened to Joey Grazi Day. People would’ve lost their shit if it happened to Tyler Cameron. People would’ve said, absolutely.
This is the biggest story in Bachelor Nation history. But because it happened to somebody that wasn’t the most popular bachelor, people just dismissed it. People like Gabby, Wendy, that made fun of it when this story first broke, didn’t give it the time of day. And I understand that Gabby doesn’t have any reason to like Clayton, but I think, I don’t know, a mature person would be able to separate what happened to her on Clayton’s season of the Bachelor.
Yeah. Versus this is something completely different. This is real life and a woman was trying to extort him. Schneider here nor there. She wasn’t the only one. There were others. Nick Baal, same thing. Only jumped on board when the story got bigger. There’s facts backing that up. Yeah, love Trap comes out on Thursday, and I think it’ll be great for people that don’t want to have to go back on certain websites and read two years worth of motions that are filed and hearings and depositions and stuff like that.
This will be a good breakdown for you, and again, I have not heard it. I just know this is going to be very well done. This podcast also brought to you by Tonal.

Love is Blind Recap on Thursday. So I did. My Love is Ryan, blind recap on Friday, which means the traders won, basically got bumped for the week. And honestly I just didn’t think the trader’s episode, episode 10, that aired on Thursday night. Again, it was a lot of the same. I think we’re headed for an either solo win by Rob or Rob and Eric win this thing and it’s a two person trader win.
My guess would be Rob win solo, but I mean, you’ve just got people that cannot pull the trigger on going after Rob Tara throws Rob’s name out to Natalie and Natalie and then Rob ends up getting no votes again. He’s lasted 10 episodes as a traitor and hasn’t had one vote against him at the round table.
One thing I wanna point out, Kristen, who was eliminated at the beginning of the episode in the whole Jack in the Box thing, where you had to spin the lever and if Trader popped up, you were murdered. Well, she did her post exit interviews and she confirmed what I had thought about that mission where they were all in the Jack in the Box.
And I said, look, there’s no way. That anybody in those Jack in the Box could remotely hear Eric and Rob consistently getting in and out of those boxes and or talking about who they were going to vote for. And Kristen said, not only could we not hear anybody getting in and out of those boxes, they had music blaring.
Inside those boxes. So them putting their ear up to the side of the box was basically just all for television. Kristen said there wasn’t even a chance in hell. We could remotely hear what was going on and who was getting out of a box. So. They had music absolutely blaring inside of that thing. Not to mention it was very insulated.
So I’m glad I was able to get that confirmed by Kristen. I just didn’t think that they would even make that a possibility because why would you have people playing the game the whole day and that be the slip up because somebody fell down the stair getting out of the Jack in the box or we’re too loud getting outta the jack in the box.
Yeah. Tristan was like, we couldn’t hear a thing. And finally I mentioned it in the open. It has happened. Bonnie Blue is pregnant now. I understand that she was having fertility issues, I guess, in the past with her ex, but she had 400 guys do their thing in one day. Like I think I probably would’ve been shocked if not one of those guys swimmers.
Could fertilize an egg 400 in one day. Like, yeah, I, I think this is the outcome. This is the outcome that she wanted. It’s the only reason she even did this. This is the outcome that she wanted. Apparently she has gotten it because she took to her YouTube and showed everybody the stick and she’s pregnant.
She even made an appointment for a scan at which an ultrasound technician has confirmed her pregnancy. Again, I, I, I, I can’t say I’m remotely surprised when you have that much floating around in there.
I gotta believe one swimmer can attach himself now. Again, I, I said it last week. I said, I’m not talking about this woman again until we find out she’s pregnant. And then literally, probably two podcasts later, she finds out she’s pregnant. I promise you, I will not talk about this story again until she confirms who the father is, because I want to hear from this dude.
Like, is this guy gonna support her or is he just there? He just showed up that day to get his rocks off and. I dunno, be part of a Guinness book, a world record. I don’t know. Like, is he going to want to be in her life? Is he gonna support her or he was just there to make a deposit. So she said she has the DNA of all 400 men.
So they don’t all have to come back and take DNA tests. She claims that she’s got them. She got them that day. Okay, great. So we are going to need the only time I’m gonna talk about this story again, I promise. Or the next time I’m gonna talk about it is if and when she confirms which guy that showed up that day, which lucky guy showed up that day, ended up being the father.
Tia Bollinger. Bollinger, that’s her name in case you didn’t know. No, her name’s not Bonnie Blue. It’s Tia Bellinger. Congratulations Tia. I’m sure your son and or daughter will be thrilled to hear about how they were conceived. Let’s just, let’s just end it right here. Anyway, thank you all for listening. I really appreciate it.
