Oooooo can’t wait! I bet she stays classy though and doesn’t spill anything super interesting.

I'm the opposite. I want major tea spilled and for her to shade Ben some so his chances of Bachelor 2.0 nosedive.

Lauren's always been good with not BS-ing the way her politician ex (IMO) does, so I feel like she'll politely allude to him neglecting her or prioritizing HEA over her, but I don't see her going all Vienna on his azz (unfortunately for me).

Oh totally agree! The girl will probabaly be completely honest, all while still coming across diplomatically and without being too harsh. It’s a gift.

Regardless, I can’t wait to hear what she says. After Ben running his mouth left, right, and center... it’ll be nice to get an hour+ of her side. She got such a bum rap and (IMO at least) a lot of unfair critisism and scrutiny. I think a lot of people read her completely wrong. JMO.

I can't wait to hear the podcast. I hope she stays true to herself, speaks her truth and doesn't shy away from the harder issues, but keeps it neat and nice. I don't want her ex to find another reason to do his whiny press tours to tell his side of the story. Jmo.

Good for her. Go Lauren! I have gained so much respect for her after watching how graceful she was post the breakup with BigMouthBen.

Yeah, the true personalities of those 2 came out following the breakup.

For all the crap Lauren got from fans for being a fameseeker, in the end she has been the one who has stepped back and concentrated on life outside of BN.

Respect her. No comment on him.

Yes! I'll be listening! Ben admitted that his sensitivity and stubbornness to change was a factor in their breakup so I wonder how much detail she might go into. Not too long ago she talked about being in therapy. Poor girl did not receive emotional support from Ben. JMO
I hope she straight up tells us that she didn't want the reality show

I never warmed up to Lauren as I couldn't stand Amanda and thought if they were BFFs during Ben's season, then Lauren must be an equal airhead. Hope she proves me wrong.

She has many very good friends and they are all different - a few only from the Bachelor. That she is an airhead because Amanda is a airhead is a weird deduction.

From what I've seen from her social media.... if it's a shilling or business opportunity you'll see her with Amanda a lot. They do a lot of wine tastings and fashion/makeup shoots. But they didn't hang out much or at all during Coachella/stagecoach. The past 6 months the majority of her time has been spent with her pre bachelor friends, her sister/fam, Devin and Devin's sisters.

Yeah... I was gonna say, she’s really separated herself from the Bachelor family lately. She hardly seems to see Amanda or twins anymore (don’t even know last time she saw twins...)

She seems to hang with her family, her sister, and her pre bachelor friends the vast majority of the time. Doesn’t do Bach family meet ups or events anymore, really. Does her own thing. Even this podcast with steve-o to me is an indication she’s pretty far removed from the franchise now and has no intentions for a return in any incarnation.

I'm looking forward to listening! When she was on Kaitlyn's podcast she didn't go into full detail about what happened between them and still said he was a good guy but maybe RS will get her to reveal all.
