Hello, everyone, and welcome to another episode of Behind the Rose podcast.

I'm your host, Blake Horsman, here with my buddy as usual, Eric Bradley, and it is Tuesday nights right after episode

nine of Bachelor in Paradise. And I don't know, it's kind of a boring episode. Not a ton

happen. But lucky for you guys, I feel like a lot did happen this week. I feel like a lot did

happen this week. So let's get into it. Eric, should we just start with The Bachelor right now?

Let's start with, we basically got a very soft announcement of who the new bachelor is going to

be. Yeah, Clayton Eckhart, New York and Missouri. Yeah, small town of Missouri. Dude,

I'll tell you what, from what I've read and what, you know, people are talking about, they're going back to the cookie cutter, Midwestern white boy religious football player.

Like, they went way back to the original recipe, it seems like, obviously we have no idea who this guy is. So, like,

we can't sit here and get into a deep dive of who this man is, but it's going to be interesting. I'm going to have to do a little digging because he has, I know some of his teammates from college, and I think he had a little short stint with the Seahawks. So I'm not to find out a little bit about this guy.

Yeah, get some tea for us, man.

We have the podcast for the first little bit of tea on Clayton. But listen, the fact that we don't even know who he is, nobody does. Nobody knows who this guy is because he's on Michelle's season. You saw a little clips of him tonight in the preview. Yeah, and they picked him means the producers love them like that means the producers think he is a home run can't miss we keep hearing this rumor about a big storyline like there's some big storyline with clayton uh so i guess we'll see um he already had a whole parade and everything like he left for filming like he's filming already

which is crazy crazy so yeah we have our new bachelor guys clayton ecart is that you say

Eckert Eckart Eckart Eckart Eckert yeah yeah ECHARD guess an Eckerd or yeah so

yeah we'll keep our eye on that guys I think so excited about that I think they do need to

kind of go back to their grassroots a bit.

Yeah, but they went all the way back.

They didn't sort of go back. They went to Colton. Like, this is, this is Colton. You know what I mean? Like he is. So are we going to see? You're going to, you're going to, prediction now is going to be the same.

Well, no, obviously, I don't know.
