Starting point is 00:01:22 Everyone's like jumping on the bandwagon last minute. Typical amateurs. Do you have good Coachella passes? I'm not even going to the festival this year. You're not? You're just going to be there? I just, I always rent a house with all my friends. Yeah? And we just party at the house and then there's off-site parties everywhere and they're way more fun than the festival.
Starting point is 00:01:38 Huh. Well then maybe I'll just do that. That's what you should do! That's what you should do! Do I have anything going on this weekend? I don't know. You do look thin, though. Thanks. I've been working on my Coachella bod. Yeah, have you?
Starting point is 00:01:50 Just wait until it gets tanned this week. I'm going to get a spray tan. Are you? Yeah. Have to for Coachella. You like spray tans over just like normal, like getting a tanning booth? Well, that causes cancer. Everything causes cancer.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Spray tans also cause cancer. Okay. Literally, there's like a disclaimer on the back of the door that says that whatever is in the spray tan ingredients is like, it's cancerous. All right. So then what does it matter? It just looks better. I burn.
Starting point is 00:02:16 I disagree. I'm like not a good tanner. Yeah, you're fair skinned. Yeah, I burn and then it goes away and I'm white again. Like there's no tan. Okay. It's a bummer. And also, they say this is not true, but it fair-skinned. Yeah, I burn, and then it goes away, and I'm white again. Like, there's no tan. Okay. It's a bummer. And also, they say this is not true, but it's true for me.
Starting point is 00:02:28 If I have a spray tan, then I won't burn if I lay by the pool. Yeah, because it's got sunscreen in it. I guess, because it's always the move. Like, if I'm going to the beach or something, I get a spray tan before I go for the sole reason that I'll burn if I don't. Yeah. Yeah. You want to start the show? Sure.
Starting point is 00:02:42 Me or you? You. I can't even remember the last time we did a show, so I don't even know. Oh, my gosh. Everyone hates us, because we never do't. Yeah. Yeah. You want to start the show? Sure. Me or you? You. I can't even remember last time we did a show, so I don't even know. Oh my gosh. Everyone hates us because we never do this. Yeah. I've got a bone to pick real quick. Oh gosh.
Starting point is 00:02:51 But first, bros and hoes, it's time for your favorite thing podcast with- Wiles and Brandy. We back. Let me get this straight. You found time- Oh gosh. To do a podcast with somebody else? Who? Olivia? Yeah. Are you doing a podcast with her now? Oh, Caitlin. Yeah found time to do a podcast with somebody else? Who?
Starting point is 00:03:05 Olivia? Yeah, are you doing a podcast with her now? Oh, Caitlin. That was Caitlin's podcast. Oh, you're not? I thought you and Olivia are doing a podcast. No, we're talking about doing a TV show. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:03:16 But when I say TV, I mean it'll probably be like Facebook show. Oh, I thought we were going to do that. We are. Yeah, right. We are. This is how quickly I got replaced. No, you're not replaced. I got replaced so quickly by Olivia.
Starting point is 00:03:28 It's not true. I was listening to this thing with my parents, and my mom in her office, she has this whiteboard with all of her ideas or whatever for her production company. Yeah, whatever. The very first thing is your favorite thing show with Walls and Brandy. That's a good show idea. Yeah. I need you to come out to LA so we can meet with these people.
Starting point is 00:03:42 Oh, I'm going this weekend. Scrocella this weekend? Yes. Am I going this weekend? Yes, I am to come out to LA so we can meet with these people. Oh, I'm going this weekend. Is Coachella this weekend? Yes. Am I going this weekend? Yes, I am going this weekend to LA. Wait, no, next weekend is Coachella. Yeah, yeah, Coachella's next weekend. Yeah, so you should just stay. Are you going to be out in LA this weekend?
Starting point is 00:03:54 I'm going to be in Denver this weekend. Oh, well. I know. Fuck me. I get to LA on Monday. So, by the way, Brandi shows up at the studio today today and I go, wow, you look really thin. She's like, oh my God, thank you so much, Coachella bod. Coachella bod.
Starting point is 00:04:08 By the way, I'm just so stressed out. And I was like, what's going on? She was like, just so you know, I have a hard out at 630. Yeah, I have a hard out at 620, not 30. Okay. So by the way, if you don't know this, a hard out is a TV, it's a bougie famous person term for no matter what, I can't fucking hang out with you after 620. Yes.
Starting point is 00:04:29 But I knew you would know what that meant. Of course I do. Yeah. I love the idea of the hard out, but you're coming at me with hard out numbers? Yeah, I am. Okay, I want to know, real quick, what is your hard out excuse? I have to be at Pilates at 630. All right.
Starting point is 00:04:43 I have to. Your hard out. That's how I got this skinny Coachella bod, okay, is Pilates at 6.30. Alright. You're hard out. That's how I got this skinny Coachella bod, okay? Pilates at 6.30. You look great. You really do look really good. Thanks, Wells. Thank you. Yeah. And you got eye makeup on today, I feel like. I do. I did an Instagram shoot today. Oh, you did?
Starting point is 00:04:57 Yeah. Dude, I'm super pumped. It's really nice when things that you like collide with things that you get to post about. Oh, it's the best. One of my favorite things. What company am I wearing right now? Oh, was it Project 615?
Starting point is 00:05:10 Yeah, they came to me and they're like, dude, we want you to be a brand ambassador. And I was like, I kind of got hurt. I was like, I feel like I already am that for you guys. I wear your shoes everywhere. And they're like, no, dude, we want to make this official. So next week they're like, we want to do a photo shoot. Whoa. And I never do photo shoot.
Starting point is 00:05:29 I know. Get it. And I get to, and a lot of people get like, it's super cringy when you're like, you give a promo code. But I fucking love it. One, because I love the shirts. And two, like the mission of the company is really great. You know, they employ homeless people, do all the screen printing.
Starting point is 00:05:45 So cool. So anyways, I was like, yes! Awesome. That's super exciting. I know. Discount codes are great. Who doesn't love a deal? Dude, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:05:51 I love a deal. Like, I will straight up buy something I don't need if I'm getting it for a deal. Yeah. You know? I know. Can't pass up a sale. Can't pass up a sale.
Starting point is 00:05:58 I can't. I really can't. I have a lot. It's like, normally we do this show and we don't have a lot of favorite things to talk about. You have a lot this week? I have a lot of things. You want to know why show and we don't have a lot of favorite things to talk about. You have a lot this week? I have a lot of things. You want to know why?
Starting point is 00:06:06 Because I haven't been in this room in three weeks. You've been gone. What's been going on with you? Just real quick. I don't live here anymore. I live on an airplane apparently. Yeah. Delta needs to just give me a room, you know?
Starting point is 00:06:18 And I would love it if B&A would hook me up with a VIP parking spot. If you've never been to the National Airport, the National Airport is like its own little weird Disneyland, by the way. It is. It's very small. It's very small. We are expanding, though. We are expanding. We're getting a nonstop flight to London that I'll never use, but it's cool to have. It's exciting.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Yeah. It is my favorite airport in the world because you can get through security so freaking fast. Do you have TSA PreCheck? And I have that, so I can literally just walk onto a plane. Let me just tell you guys right now, one of. Do you have TSA PreCheck? And I have that. Same. So I can literally just walk onto a plane. Let me just tell you guys right now. One of my favorite things is TSA Pre. If you don't have it and you fly, even if you fly once every three months, it is worth it.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Totally worth it. You don't have to take out your laptop. You keep your shoes on. Liquid's in the bag. It's awesome. Okay. Aside from all that, which is great, you get to cut the line. You get to cut the whole line.
Starting point is 00:07:03 All you're like, ha ha, like all you losers. Literally literally though it's life-changing i know it's pretty great the national airport's really great because there's like musicians playing for whatever reason which is always kind of funny that's fun but here's the thing i don't know if you you've noticed they'll have like hey it's oh yeah it's blake shelton just reminding you don't leave bags laying around. You know you've made it, Wynn. Yeah. What the fuck, BNA airport? Like, when could I be like,
Starting point is 00:07:30 hey, it's Wells and Brandy. Oh my gosh, that would be epic. Who do we talk to? I don't know who we've got to be. That would be my favorite thing if that were to happen. Right? I feel like this is,
Starting point is 00:07:39 we could make this happen. You work for the freaking local radio station. Well. Your voice is famous, Wells. Thank you. In Nashville, at least. I mean for the freaking local radio station. Well. Your voice is famous, Wells. Thank you. In Nashville, at least. I mean, not really,
Starting point is 00:07:49 but what? Okay, so I have. Favorite things. Oh, yeah, hold on. Real quick, though. You've been flying a lot. What's been going on? I'm just gone.
Starting point is 00:07:58 I saw you went to the March for Our Lives in D.C. It was so sick. And I saw, you and Sarah were here, right? Yeah, Sarah came here. That's crazy. That's so cool, though.
Starting point is 00:08:04 But yeah, I saw that you guys did that, too, which was so cool. It was a very spontaneous decision for me to go. Yeah. I knew Miley and Noah were going, but I had so much going on around it. I had just gotten to L.A. for a job, and I was like, I'm not going to want to fly all the way across country. I went from Austin to L.A., but I got there, and my mom was like, you should really come. I really feel like if you don't go, you're going to feel out and you're gonna wish you'd gone this is a once in a lifetime experience it's like a little it's like a hit like historical like it's gonna change things
Starting point is 00:08:32 and she's like I just think you should be part of it you know and so I went and I'm so freaking glad that I did it was an amazing experience and meeting all those kids was so emotional just knowing what they've been through and just seeing how positive they are and how determined they are to like change things, you know, but it was very cool and- They're not crisis actors?
Starting point is 00:08:48 No. Isn't that the most annoying thing in the world? Well, for me, it's like, you know, we don't have to get into this too much
Starting point is 00:08:53 but it's very frustrating. anytime you post anything that's controversial, you know there's going to be people that don't agree with you and that's okay. Like, everyone has their own beliefs
Starting point is 00:09:01 and everyone, whatever, but what makes me angry is the ignorant comments. Oh, God. Which I got a lot of on this specific thing. And it's just like, guys, kids died. And I loved actually your caption to your photo was so good.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Repeat it because it was great. Let me just read it. Read it because it was so good. I saw it and I was like, I wish I had said this because this is how I feel. Because it's a controversial thing and and I get really nervous voicing my opinion on things that I feel I'm not super like knowledgeable about in the way that like I don't own a gun I've never held a gun I've never shot a gun that's not ever been something that's been important to me at all I don't hunt my family doesn't hunt I don't I don't feel the need to have that in my house I feel safe the way I am. I had a German Shepherd for eight years.
Starting point is 00:09:46 I felt safe in my own house. I just never needed one. And that's just the way I was raised. And so part of me gets a little nervous thinking I really am clueless about guns and whatever. But at the same time, they end lives. And the number one thing people say to me is, it's not guns that kill people. It's people that kill people. You're right about that.
Starting point is 00:10:04 But the availability of the gun gives them a vehicle to kill people okay so this is what i wrote that's my issue i agree with you this is what i wrote i said to me march for our lives wasn't i want to take away all your guns rally it was a bunch of kids got shot in our school and as a society we're better than that we should all work together to try to fix this gathering yeah that is the most you can walk on the line. Totally. And I still got roasted by a lot of people. Of course.
Starting point is 00:10:30 And I get it. People have different beliefs and whatever. But I just, you know, you can't be afraid to voice your opinion because of what people think. Like everyone's entitled to their own. And it's like religion. Like if you just respect each other's opinion enough to hear everybody out and not be so close-minded about it like we can all learn stuff from each other but i just it's easy to look at this as black and white and like take away all guns you're telling you're saying take away all the guns well that's not what i'm saying not at all what i'm saying what i'm saying is if
Starting point is 00:10:56 you really look at the detail we had a whole printout of like all these facts about guns and stuff like and the one that stuck out to noah was at 18 years old, you can't buy a beer, but you can buy a gun. Yeah. That's insane. That's insane. And not only can you buy a gun, you can go to Walmart
Starting point is 00:11:11 and buy an AK-47. Or AR-15. Whatever. Yeah. It's nuts. It's the difference between having a handgun for protection or whatever
Starting point is 00:11:20 and being able to go purchase a rifle. That's nuts to me. What annoys me about this whole thing is that when you go to a March for Your Lives rally, everyone's just assuming it's, I want to take all your guns away. Right. But no one's saying that.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Here's the thing. Taking all the guns away, that would not fix the problem. Right. It wouldn't. It's like a seven-pronged approach. Of course. We need to have better psychoanalysis of people. Yeah, I was about to say and with kids
Starting point is 00:11:45 specifically you know this is happening in schools and kids under the age of 18 stop bullying each other stop being mean to each other like i feel like the stats of these kids that end up pulling the trigger are they're depressed and they're bullied and they're lonely and they're scared and whatever and if people would just treat each other better guaranteed this wouldn't happen yeah not as much it's a lot of different things and And I think that that's where it falls on deaf ears to like the ultra conservative who's like, you want to take away my, that's a constitutional right to have a gun. It's like, no, no, no, no. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Hold on. We need to talk about like all the different things. Like maybe there should be some more regulations on when you buy a gun. Exactly. But that's one thing. Maybe there should be more tax dollars going to like helping troubled kids, you know? Maybe there should be metal detectors at schools. Maybe there should be security guards at schools
Starting point is 00:12:33 that are armed. Like, it's not going to be one thing that fixes the problem. It's going to be a lot of things. And the fucked up, annoying thing for me is that if you are so closed-minded that you can't say, okay, hold on.
Starting point is 00:12:44 Let's just all listen to everybody and figure out a comprehensive plan to fix. The one thing that we kind of want to fix is no more kids getting shot up in school. No more anyone getting shot, you know? And that's where the ignorance lies, is that someone can't understand that it's going to take a lot more than just one thing.
Starting point is 00:13:03 And the problems are on both sides. Exactly. I agree. It's hard to look at the Instagram post and read some of the comments. And the ones that bother me the most are the ones that say, literally word for word, one of the comments on one of my photos was, you dumb bitch, stop being ignorant
Starting point is 00:13:21 and trying to take away our rights. Okay, those three words, you dumb bitch, that's exactly the problem. You guys calling each other bitches and being negative and derogatory to each other is what's making people depressed and scared and feeling a lot like, that's exactly the problem. And that's so ignorant to me. Voice your opinion, but do not call me a dumb bitch. That's ignorant.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Did you get a lot of uh typical hollywood even though you have security guards who are armed that protect you all at all times i thought it was funny it's just ignorant sarah was like i don't have a bodyguard neither do i miley has one guy one security guy like as she should as she should because they're because she gets threats all the time and it's crazy but like it's just it's the ignorance that bothers me. If you have a different opinion, state it, but do it in an intelligent, respectful way. That's all I ask. Yeah. All right. Quick PSA for those of you out there who rent.

What is it that you eat? Ducks. I go duck hunting. What's the thing we talk about? Did I make you eat dove? You tried, and I refused.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Dove, that was it. I was like, absolutely not. I have two older brothers. My father grew up in Wichita. We went hunting. That was a thing we did. I have multiple guns. I took my hunter safety course when I was 12 years old. That is a check and balance right there that doesn't exist for
Starting point is 00:17:12 anyone that wants to buy a gun, which is fucked up. You should have the utmost respect for that weapon. And two, when you take that test, you have to learn all about the weapon and then you have to go shoot it. There's an instructor. And if he does, you have to take a test. And if he doesn't think that you are, if you don't pass the test, or if he doesn't think that you should get a gun, because you're around them for like a weekend, you know, it's like a 15-hour course or whatever.
Starting point is 00:17:40 They won't let you pass, right? Isn't that weird that that doesn't exist for just like going to buy any gun? I think it's insane. Anyways. It really is. So we could talk about it on and on. I know. But yes, I got to go.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Yes, it was amazing. What was the coolest thing? Because like I feel like it was just star studded. It was. But that part, that wasn't even the coolest part to me because I get to go to stuff like that all the time. Like Miley and I both were backstage and we were like, this kind of feels like an award show because of all the celebrities here, which it's great that they all came out to support. But my favorite thing about it was, yes, like, Kanye was there, and all these cool people were there.
Starting point is 00:18:12 But truly, the students that gave their speeches were the stars of the entire day. They really, truly were. Their moments were the most epic. And it just seemed like, you know, when Miley came out and sang or whatever, just kind of icing on the cake. But it was really, it was these students that people wanted to hear from and see and meet. And even backstage, everybody was wanting pictures with them. Miley and Noah asked to take pictures with the girls that gave speeches
Starting point is 00:18:34 with Martin Luther King's granddaughter. It really wasn't about the celebrities and that was my favorite part. Yeah. If nothing else, I will say that, I don't know, out of sadness and tragedy tragedy I've found an immense amount of hope because these kids that are I just assume that like most every high school is probably like Stoneman Douglas you know yeah and these kids are so eloquent they're so smart it's insane I don't know man these kids are so smart there's there is going to be a pivot in ideology in the next 15 years yeah change is
Starting point is 00:19:07 the only constant and i think hopefully it's going to change for the better so i'm proud of you that you went to went to that thanks i'm proud of you that you did the national one was cool man it looks cool yeah it was funny because sarah was like i want to come see you i haven't seen you in a while but this is important to me and i was. This is important to me. And I was like, well, there's one here. Yeah. But I was so nervous because Nashville is a conservative. I know. It's in a conservative state in a liberal city. Yeah. And I was like, I'm kind of nervous.
Starting point is 00:19:33 Yeah. I'm kind of nervous to walk around. I know. And especially like being with you and like you're so recognizable. What's it going to be like? And there was none of that. That's awesome. At all, which I thought was really cool.
Starting point is 00:19:44 That's great. things yeah obviously music is like my go-to favorite thing but casey musgraves new album tell me you've listened to it i have okay so you dare be negative about it i'm not i love obsessed with i love spacey casey i have listened to it eight million times john mayer did an instagram post about it and i was just like like, oh my God, Casey must be on Cloud 9. If John Mayer ever complimented something I did, I'd be like, I'm done. That's my life goal. I'm done. I can quit life.
Starting point is 00:20:12 I know. I love Spacey Casey. Why are you being a downer then? Because my ex dates her guitar player. Oh my gosh. Get over it. Totally. But it's a thing where you're like, ah, fuck, it's good guitar playing.
Starting point is 00:20:24 It is. The album is amazing. So I do need to like- What are your favorites on it? Have you listened to it enough to know? I love Lonely Weekend. It's insane. Oh, What a World.
Starting point is 00:20:34 That's probably my second favorite. Yeah. And I love High Horse, and I love Space Cowboy. Space Cowboy, Butterflies is really good. I was doing radio in Nashville before Casey Musgrave was popular, was famous. And so there's like a weird thing that happened in Nashville is for whatever reason, country music in Nashville would not support her. And I used to work for this indie radio station.
Starting point is 00:20:56 Yeah, Lightning 100. Yeah. Yeah. That played like War on Drugs or like super like radio had like indie stuff. Yep. drugs or like super like radio had like indie stuff yep and we were all like in music meetings and Casey was like friends of the station and friends of friends and and she had a song out and I used to do a thing called well smells a hit I went on the air being like we're not a country radio station but she's local and this song's badass yeah and so we were the first stuff has
Starting point is 00:21:21 never been straight down the middle country no but, but, well, she sounds like a country artist. Yeah, I mean, her genre is country, but to me she's never sounded down the middle country. I know. She's always been left of center. I agree. I mean, she's similar to Margo Price, if anyone listens to, you know, Margo Price and the Price Tags. She's a badass bitch. She's awesome.
Starting point is 00:21:40 That, like, does country music. She's so good. And she's such a good person. She used to keep, before I had to move my horse, our barn closed down. But before I moved, we boarded the same barn and I actually helped her find her horse, Mismo. And she is the first time I really had met her and got to know her. And she's just a fantastic person.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Just so cool and so sweet. Did we talk about Shawn Mendes last time? Or have I not been in here since? No. His new song is insane. Wait, hold on. You got to do one. I want to do one.
Starting point is 00:22:03 Oh, fine. Go. Hold on. By the way, Wolfpack. I love that band forever. Wait, hold on. You got to do one. I want to do one. Oh, fine, go. Hold on. By the way, Wolfpack, I've loved that band forever. Who? Wolfpack. Oh.
Starting point is 00:22:12 And now they're on like an Apple commercial. Are they really? No, you've made it win. Apple loves their like cool bands for their commercials. They love that crap. So like the song that like they're playing on this Apple commercial, see if I can pull it up. You know? Yeah. I've loved this band for a very long time.
Starting point is 00:22:33 And then when that's... And then you're like... And then I was like, yes! But yes. Well, there's that thing, right? It's that no, but yes. Yeah, it's like, finally! Now everyone's going to love them, though,
Starting point is 00:22:43 and you're going to be annoyed. Yeah, I don't really care. They're great. Like, if you like some soul and some funk and some just badassery, then you need to go check it out. I do like, did you ever get into Trampled by Turtles? No. Trampled by Turtles has- Love the name, though.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Oh, yeah. It comes from being so hungover that you're moving so slowly that you're feeling like you're being trampled by turtles. That's incredible. They're a bluegrass band that I think is badass. It's a song called The Middle. I really like the kind of hook that it has. Anyways, that's pretty good. Do you like that? Yeah, I do.
Starting point is 00:23:56 I mean, I don't listen to that on the reg. Yeah. That kind of thing. What's Shawn Mendes' song? It's called In My Blood. Yeah. It's epic. That's the new hit.
Starting point is 00:24:04 It's so good. Guess who wrote that song with him? Ed Sheeran. Teddy Geiger. It's called In My Blood. Yeah. It's epic. That's the new hit. It's so good. Guess who wrote that song with him? Ed Sheeran. Teddy Geiger. Do you remember him? No. What?
Starting point is 00:24:12 Pull up Teddy Geiger. Hold on. I got to play this. I can take to ease my mind slowly. I'm going to play the chorus. Just have a drink and you'll feel better. Just take her home and you'll feel better. Keep telling me that it gets better. Does it ever? Help me. It's like the walls are keeping in. Sometimes I feel like giving up No medicine is strong enough Someone help me
Starting point is 00:24:49 I need the chorus, Wells. All right. I'm crawling in my skin But we're a minute in. Sometimes I feel like giving up But I just can't It isn't in my blood It isn't in my blood It isn't in my blood
Starting point is 00:25:09 Do you want to know what it is? It's epic. Do you want to know what it sounds like? What? It's Kings of Leon. A little bit? That, like, hold on. It isn't in my blood
Starting point is 00:25:21 That's so Kings of Leon. I love Kings of Leon. I do, too. I freaking love them. It's so good. Leon. I love Kings of Leon. I do too. I freaking love them. It's so good. He put this out the Friday before the March, which was so, I mean, I don't know if they did that on purpose or what, but it was epic timing. It's such a good song, but I wanted to know who wrote it, so I looked it up.
Starting point is 00:25:37 It's Teddy Geiger. He had a song in the 2000s. For you, I will. Yes, and Kristen Cavallari was in the video and she jumps in a pool and I remember watching it on TRL. Yeah. And then when I was in a band, which this has been
Starting point is 00:25:50 seven years ago now, I used to write with him all the time. Oh, really? And I always, like, I loved this song back in the day so I was hyped to write with him but I remember he was, like,
Starting point is 00:25:59 struggling and trying to find, you know, the artist thing was over, he was trying to become a writer and so now to see that he's got this big hit is very cool. Good for him. Good looking dude too. Not so much anymore.
Starting point is 00:26:11 He used to be that. Get it, girl. Oh, yeah. I wrote that song. It was great. Yeah. Anyway, he wrote it. Fun fact. Alright. What about the new Weeknd? Have you listened to any of that? Yeah. I was he wrote it. Fun fact. All right. What about The New Weekend? Have you listened to any of that?
Starting point is 00:26:27 Yeah. I was disappointed. I mean, like, so it's all Selena, right? Like, that's the whole thing? Yeah, it's all about Selena. I guess. I don't care. It's just.
Starting point is 00:26:34 Oh, my gosh. I don't know. It's like. The last two songs on the EP I liked, but it was, overall, I was a tad disappointed. Yeah. I mean, I don't know. Like, I don't feel bad for a guy that broke up with a girl
Starting point is 00:26:45 and then like started dating like another supermodel you know like I'm like okay well good got it buddy no one feels bad
Starting point is 00:26:52 for you he has feelings too okay totally but like I don't know if I'm Selena I'm like really dude
Starting point is 00:26:57 really I know it's very sappy yeah what else what are their favorite things okay I don't know if you've seen it but um
Starting point is 00:27:04 who's your favorite character in Saved by the Bell? I don't know. Come on. I haven't seen it in so long, Wells. I think it's on Funny or Die called Zach Morris is Trash. Oh my gosh. Have you seen it? I haven't, no.
Starting point is 00:27:14 We all remember Zach Morris as being such a great character and such a good guy. Yeah. These videos are so funny because it just proves that Zach Morris truly was an absolute doucher. Was he your favorite on the show? I think he was. And then, yeah, exactly. Give you a ding. Morris is trash. Zach Morris won third place in a track meet and mistakenly thinks his ribbon is something to brag about.
Starting point is 00:27:44 Slater shows up with a real trophy for winning a wrestling championship, stealing Zack's thunder, and finally giving Kelly a suitor worthy of her Kelly hugs. Zack deals with this like a man. So there's like video going along with the episode. Just kidding, he turns into a total fucking psycho. After a trophy ceremony where Zack puts his dumb ribbon in the trash where it belongs, Zack meets Slater's father in the hall. Slater's dad is looking for principal Belding, so Zack points him in the opposite direction of his office. Why? Because Zack got a great idea.
Starting point is 00:28:05 That idea? Cramming his best friend into the principal's filing cabinet to eavesdrop on a private conversation, so he can maybe use that information for personal gain. Papa Slater tells Belding he's transferring to Hawaii and taking Slater with him. Belding calls in Slater, who tells his dad he's made great friends at Bayside and isn't sure if he can leave them. Slater's dad tells him he can decide if they move. Screech, who is unable to stand after Zack left him trapped in a filing cabinet, breaks the news. He adds that if Slater stays at Bayside, Zack can consider himself a dead man with Kelly. This gives Zack another great idea. Then he abandons his injured friend for the
Starting point is 00:28:34 second time in one day, this time on a bathroom floor. Zack's new great idea? He tells the gang Slater is dying of a rare disease. It's called Mumbio Quadrelation Osis. That definitely doesn't sound made up. And the only possible cure is a clinic in Hawaii. But because Slater's
Starting point is 00:28:50 a dumb jock who just wants to hang out with his friends, the only way he'll go is if everyone is super mean to him in what might be his final days on Earth.
Starting point is 00:28:57 Zach begins his gaslighting campaign by telling the gang that symptoms of Slater's condition include memory loss, itching, and sneezing. Zach asks Slater why he wasn't in the
Starting point is 00:29:04 weight room last period when they made plans to be in the weight room last. Slater doesn't remember making these plans because they never made these plans. This causes his friends to burst into tears, much to Zach's delight. Zach shoves an armful of pepper up Slater's face. Anyways, it just goes through like, it's so funny. Zach Morris is trash. That's amazing. Yeah, it's good stuff.
Starting point is 00:29:24 That's hilarious. Love. Another thing that I really loved. You heard about Icarus? Zach Morris is trash that's amazing yeah it's good stuff that's hilarious love another thing that I really loved you heard about Icarus yes I met the guy that directed it stop it
Starting point is 00:29:32 he won a freaking Oscar yeah he did he was at my mom's house two nights before the Oscars we were meeting about he I think he's this is top secret stuff
Starting point is 00:29:41 but whatever he I think he might be involved in a documentary about my dad that we're trying to do. Oh, cool. But yeah, he was at the house meeting with my mom. It was actually the night I tried to get your ass to come over.
Starting point is 00:29:51 Oh, really? In LA? Remember, I said, hey, my mom's producer partner is here. He wants to chat with us. And that guy was there, the director of Icarus. Real quick synopsis. You missed out. I did, but being a good boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:30:01 But I haven't watched it yet. It's on my list. Oh, you haven't? Okay, so then I can kind of give you the synopsis. Yes, please. So it's a guy who is a amateur cyclist, right? And there is an amateur bike race very similar to the Tour de France in France
Starting point is 00:30:16 that he competes in. It's pretty serious. Like these amateur bicyclists are like, don't fuck around guys, right? So he competes in it like five years ago, gets 14th place, which is really, really good. All happening around the same time that Lance Armstrong is getting nailed
Starting point is 00:30:30 for all the doping stuff. So his idea for the documentary is, I'm going to do the exact same drugs and steroids that Lance Armstrong did for an entire year. I'm going to talk to a doctor, do it, figure out a way to pass the test all while documenting this, see if I do any better in the race.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Right? Starts doing it. Got a doctor from UCLA who's helping him out. Finally, the doctor at UCLA is like, I don't feel comfortable doing this anymore. I'm going to stop. He's like, dude, I'm making this documentary. What am I going to do? I got a friend who works for the IOC, the Olympic Testing Committee in Russia.
Starting point is 00:31:03 He's perfect for you. Wow. He starts Skyping with this guy. All of a sudden, this guy starts talking about covering up like 30 years of doping for the Russian Olympians. That's insane.
Starting point is 00:31:13 And like this, then all of a sudden it's like, okay, don't give a shit about this bicycle race. Yeah, we've moved past that. And like, I don't know if it's true, but I'm pretty sure the whole reason that the Russians were not allowed in the Olympics was because of this one video. I believe that.
Starting point is 00:31:29 It is such a good documentary. Yeah. That's what, yeah. I've been wanting to watch it. Yeah. So watch that. Heard good things. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:34 Have you read any good books recently? What did I just read? It's like a crime thriller fiction book, but I think it's called What She Knew. Okay. Let me Google it just to make sure. It was great though. It was so great you forgot the name of it. Yep. What She Knew. That's what it's called. What is it's called What She Knew. Okay. Let me Google it just to make sure. It was great, though. It was so great, you forgot the name of it. Yep, What She Knew. That's what it's called. What is it called? What She Knew.
Starting point is 00:31:50 Gilly McMillian is who wrote it. I read a book called The Great Alone recently. Really liked that one. I like the title. So, quick synopsis on that mug. It takes place in, like, the 70s. Okay. Mother, daughter, husband is a POW from Vietnam, comes back all kind of fucked up.
Starting point is 00:32:10 Mm-hmm. Gets bequeathed a cabin in Alaska from his like staff sergeant. Okay. Dad's kind of not all there. Mm-hmm. They decide to move to Alaska and become homesteaders. So like straight up like living off the land. That's wild. And it's
Starting point is 00:32:26 crazy because like they have no business doing this. The guy gets progressively more dickish and more dickish. So like part of me like loves it. It's like Jacqueline like outdoors and kind of teaching you how you live out in Alaska. Man versus wild type. Exactly. I love that stuff. And then it kind of
Starting point is 00:32:41 is it mirrors kind of like what's happening in our society right now, which is like male domination. You know, this guy's a batterer, like bad guy. And then it's a mother and daughter who have to be not only tough because they're living in fucking Alaska, but they're also dealing with this psychopath. And then like the empowerment of what they do together. That's cool. cool okay now you
Starting point is 00:33:06 sold me I want to do it it's a lot but I really really liked it like so anyways yeah The Great Alone good book that's awesome we'll pick up yeah the one I just read What She Knew it's about a single mom who in the first couple chapters she's like on a walk in the woods with her kid and
Starting point is 00:33:22 she he's like begging to run ahead to this like rope swing or something and he's like please let me go please let me go run ahead on my own and she like doesn't want to she's like hesitant she's like i don't want to like coddle him his whole life like whatever so she lets him run ahead and he gets kidnapped oh no and so it's like a whole like crime thriller thing about trying to figure out who took him and blah blah blah it's very good there's a great twist in it i'm gonna check it out next i'm reading a book right now called bear town yeah that one's pretty popular okay I need a new one for my flight tomorrow. So
Starting point is 00:33:48 Beartown's pretty good. Great Alone's pretty good too though. Yeah, that one sounds amazing. Can I ask you a question? Please. Why the fuck do fancy restaurants make house-made ketchup? I saw you tweet this and I got upset because I hate ketchup. Like, hate. But a lot of the house-made ketchups I like, like Burger Ups ketchup, is insanely good. I do not like it. What? It's so good. What are you talking about? I hate ketchup.
Starting point is 00:34:15 But Burger Ups. Okay. You know what? As a person who hates ketchup, you have no say in this, sister. Okay? I just don't understand. Like, you got it right. We figured it out.
Starting point is 00:34:24 We all decided this is what ketchup tastes like. That's your opinion, Wells. It just don't understand. You got it right. We figured it out. We all decided this is what ketchup tastes like. That's your opinion, Wells. It's not a good one. Heinz and Hunts came together and they were like, this is it. I disagree. I don't understand. It ain't broke. Don't fix it, guys. Don't be fucking with ketchup.
Starting point is 00:34:39 I love the fancy ketchup. Do you want to come at me with some garlic aioli? I love the garlic ai. Sorry. Do you want to come at me with some garlic aioli? I love the garlic aioli. That's mayonnaise. It's not mayonnaise. Yes, it is. No.
Starting point is 00:34:52 I'm sorry. Aioli is mayonnaise. No, it's not. Yes, garlic aioli is mayonnaise just with garlic put inside of it. No. Yes, it is. Your hair looks insane. This is always what you do.
Starting point is 00:35:06 You video me. Where are you? I lost you. Garlic aioli is mayonnaise. It's not mayonnaise. Google it right now. You want to know how I know it is? I've made it.
Starting point is 00:35:17 All right? No, you haven't made good garlic aioli. There's no way. Yes, I have. Uh-uh. I'm getting exhausted with all of the royal wedding shit. I don't care anymore. All right?
Starting point is 00:35:29 Great. Did you have a beanie on earlier? Yeah. What's wrong? Do you want me to put it back on? Yeah, maybe. Do I just look like an idiot? I just got a haircut today and you're telling me-
Starting point is 00:35:37 That's my favorite beanie you own. Oh my God. It's a great color. It's never good when you tell me that I need to put my beanie back on the day I got a haircut. It's not insane. Stop it. I think you need a little pomade or something. Just a little product.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Do you use hair product? No. Why not? Because no hair product is strong enough to hold down. Wait. I had an ex-boyfriend that used to use the one in the orange tin. Yeah. Murphy's.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Murphy's. No, that shit's- Strong shit. No. Yeah, you should try it. That shit's weak. No, Murphys. Murphys! No, that shit's up. Strong shit. Yeah, you should try it. That shit's weak. No. It's not.
Starting point is 00:36:08 I need steroids. Hair pomade steroids. It's just a little product. You know what I did think about doing? What's that? Relaxing the hair. Ooh! What do you think about that?
Starting point is 00:36:19 I don't think you should do that. No? No. I kind of want to try to see what's going on. Have you ever flat ironed your hair? No. We should do that as a test. All right. Before you go do something permanent. Yeah, good call. Yeah, let's flat iron it. I kind of want to try to see what's going on. Have you ever flat ironed your hair? No. We should do that as a test. All right.
Starting point is 00:36:25 Before you go do something permanent. Yeah. Good call. Yeah. Let's flat iron it. I know. I don't know. We'll see.
Starting point is 00:36:30 I wonder how long it would be. I'm just tired of the fucking royal wedding stuff. Are you? I don't really hear about it anymore. I mean, I guess with your radio stuff, you hear about it. It's just a lot. Okay. I got it.
Starting point is 00:36:39 I never really cared, but yeah. Megan Markle. Whoa. Cool. I don't care. But you know what's funny? Prince William is holding on to the last couple top hair scraps. Speaking of hair, he's holding on for dear life.
Starting point is 00:36:53 Oh my gosh. You know, it's time to go. It's time to let it go. Yeah. It's time to Jason Statham that head. It's true. Because you can be- You could shave your head.
Starting point is 00:37:02 No, I can't. Do you want to know why? Yeah. And also, why is that even an option? I have a good thick head of hair you're talking about wanting to relax it i just shave it off i know it's just so curly like what are you gonna do shave it yeah i can't though because tell me why i have a huge scar on my head a lot of people don't know this yeah huge scar huge dent from when i was like two i was being babysat. My babysitter was making cookies in the oven. And I, little fat kid that I was, was like, I want some motherfucking cookies.
Starting point is 00:37:32 So I opened up the oven and I crawled inside. Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. And I hit my forehead on the grate, right? How old were you? Like two. And when I hit my forehead on the grate, obviously I went, oh! And I lifted my head up away from the grate, and then I put my, topped my head directly into
Starting point is 00:37:50 the broiler. And so I, and that that's like still like soft head time. That is terrifying. So I had this huge burn. I have pictures I can show you from like. And then it healed, and then I hit a bald spot. No fucking joke. A bald spot the size of, what is this, two quarters, three quarters?
Starting point is 00:38:08 It's bigger, yeah, maybe four. Right here. And so I just always have my hair afroed out, so it kind of covered it. So you still have the bald spot? So hold on. As a kid, that's a terrible thing to have to endure. And everyone would be like, yeah, I can see your bald spot. And then, of course, I'd be like, it's a—
Starting point is 00:38:24 It's a battle wound. It's a solar panel for a sex machine. Yeah. Good dad joke for a 12 year old. Wow. So then I think when I was in 8th grade, I was like, Mom, Dad, I don't like this anymore. Oh. So my dad's
Starting point is 00:38:40 a doctor and he had his own lab and whatever. So he had his plastic surgeon cut it out and then, uh, and then bring the skin together. What? So I had like a face, a truthy,
Starting point is 00:38:52 a facelift. No, I was like, shut the heck up. 13 years old. That's insane. I have these staples in my head. And I remember,
Starting point is 00:38:59 I remember I have a big family and everyone's kind of a big personality. I remember sitting around the dinner table and my scalp was so stretched that every time I laughed, it would start to bleed. Oh, my God. And I'd cry. So then, of course, my brothers were like, oh, my God. We can make them bleed and cry at the same time. So they would just make me laugh and I'd be like. It's so sad.
Starting point is 00:39:25 So anyways, I still have a scar here. It's not as prominent. But here's the messed up thing is that I have an indentation in my skull. So if I shave my head. You would see the dent. Totally. And you'd be like, what's wrong with that guy's head? Okay, you're right.
Starting point is 00:39:41 Don't shave it. See? Bad idea. Very long story to explain to you. I have a tiny bald spot right here on my head where I had a mole removed. Oh, that's not that bad. But I'm missing hair. It's very annoying.
Starting point is 00:39:51 Are you getting any grays? No. I am. Slash wouldn't know I dyed my hair. Oh, you do? Yeah. God, I'm getting grays. How old are you?
Starting point is 00:39:58 33? Yeah. I'm almost there. I'm probably pretty normal. You think so? Yeah. As long as you can grow a full head of gray hair, you're solid. Yeah. Silver foxes are hot. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:07 I agree with that. But if it's thinning, it's not going to look. Yeah. I don't care what color it is as long as it's on the top of my head. Exactly. You know? Yes. Totally. Yeah. Silver's fine. We've got to have some hair. I saw Ready Player One. Oh, I saw that you tweeted that. Yeah. Did you read the book? Yes. The book's better, right? Of course. Yeah, I've got to read the book.
Starting point is 00:40:23 That's actually the one I was going to read next. This is what I suggest you do. All right? And for everyone out there, this is also what I suggest you do. Go see the movie first. Really? Yes. So that you're not disappointed?
Starting point is 00:40:32 Yes. I always think that after I've read a book and see a movie. Because- I should have watched the movie first. Also like- But then, then it's not as, like things aren't as much of a surprise as you read it. Book is so much different than the movie that it won't even matter to you. Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:44 I read the book right before I went on, no, while I was on The Bachelorette. That was the book I was reading. Oh, wow. And I remember producers being like, put your fucking book away. You gotta go talk to the girl and I was like, well, it's three more pages. Oh my gosh, you're like, I want to keep reading this. Yeah, I want to keep reading this book.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Like, no wonder I didn't get very far on that. That's funny. That was a long time ago if you think about it. that was a couple years back so I had forgotten so much of like the story so I went into it being like that's not really what happened
Starting point is 00:41:11 but I don't really remember visually completely amazingly stunning wow it's beautiful beautiful film my nephew who's 12
Starting point is 00:41:19 just read it and he calls me up and he's just like all the things that are wrong with it I'm like oh yeah you're totally right I forgot about that.
Starting point is 00:41:25 So this is what I suggest doing. Go see it to be like, whoa. And then you read the book. Also, if Steven Spielberg wanted to recreate the book, he could have, but it would have been a 17-hour movie. That's always the problem with turning books into movies is there's never enough time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:39 I don't know if I want to go into what annoyed me. There was one part of the book that I remember thinking, wow, this is the future of what's going to happen with movies. And that got me really excited. So obviously it's VR, right? Yeah. And there's like, I don't know if you understand the premise of it, but there's like all these like different challenges he has to go through
Starting point is 00:41:55 to like win all this money. Yep. And in one of the challenges was the creator of this VR world was a huge like 80s nerd. And so one of the things was, is he had to be, he got sent into a movie. I think it was like Breakfast Club. Maybe like Back to the Future. And so he goes into the movie and then all of a sudden he is Marty McFly.
Starting point is 00:42:18 Oh, that's so cool. And so to pass the level, he has to say every line perfectly. Oh my gosh, that's so cool. And I remember thinking like, oh my god, that's gonna be the future of, like, movies. You know how, like, they do... It sounds like something Ashley I. Kennedy would just really love to happen in real life. Yes. It has, like, every line to every movie. You know
Starting point is 00:42:33 Rocky Horror Picture Show when people go watch it on Halloween? I don't know if you know that. Yeah. And, like, people yell out the words and everything. It becomes, like, interactive. I was like, that's what it's gonna be like, you know? Like, we're gonna be able to, like, jump in our favorite movies and, like, be the what it's gonna be like. We're gonna be able to jump in our favorite movies and be the character.
Starting point is 00:42:46 That'd be really cool. And they couldn't really create that. Or they didn't. And I remember being like, oh man, I was so excited for that one thing. But to be honest with you, shit man,
Starting point is 00:42:57 it was good. Okay. It's on my list. You know what I think would be a really cool tribute show? Concert show? What's that? Because in Nashville,
Starting point is 00:43:04 that's a big thing. It would be like Tom Petty night. Or they even do like Bruce Springsteen versus Bowie night. I think a really fun tribute night would be all your favorite bands singing your favorite TV theme songs. Could be. You know? It could go either way. It could be terrible or the greatest thing ever.
Starting point is 00:43:23 Like, it's a rare condition in this day and age. You know what that is? Yeah. Step by step, day by... Okay, whatever. It could go... I think it could go wrong. Camp Oniwana.
Starting point is 00:43:37 Oh, my gosh. Want to hear about my event that I'm planning? Yeah, is this the... That you're not going to be part of? No, I feel terrible. I have a really good excuse why I can't go now. Whatever. You keep changing your excuse.
Starting point is 00:43:47 So I'm like, remember. Tell me about your event. You guys heard all about my trip to Honduras. And so while we were down there, we were talking about this business that we're trying to start in this one village. We need $45,000 to get it going and started. And so I was like, oh my gosh, I want to go home
Starting point is 00:44:00 and I want to throw a party and raise some money towards this cause. I finally ironed out all the details. Took me weeks of hours of planning. But it's going to be a Y2K themed 2000s night. Yep, that's right. Which I'm going to DJ and I might have a couple other people DJ before me, but we're just going to play 2000s all night long.
Starting point is 00:44:18 We're going to have a request hour. It's going to be super fun. We got Weld to donate their space. And if you guys live in Nashville and don't know about Weld, it's a membership only community workspace. It's very cool. It's a big warehouse. It's just very vibey. And it's someplace like you can't just walk into anytime, like you have to be invited or whatever. So it'll be kind of exclusive to get to be in Weld. We have a bunch of cool sponsors and Ben Higgins is going to host. Oh my what is he like, the best, most famous, most loved bachelor or something.

Starting point is 00:45:31 You'll be supporting a really great cause, and we're going to have a lot of fun. But Wells won't be there. I mean, it's my least favorite thing right now because I can't go to it. Yeah, what's your excuse? Sarah's father is an actor. This was the last excuse I heard, yes. This is true. Like, you're gonna see it. Sarah's father is an actor, and
Starting point is 00:45:46 he is in the Broadway production of the new Harry Potter thing? Uh, I've never seen it. No one has in America, unless you've been over in England or London. So now it's coming to New York. Couldn't you just fly in that morning?
Starting point is 00:46:02 No. Yes. The flight to New York is an hour and a half. Well, it's not. It's two and a half. It's an hour and a half there and it's two and a half back. I do it all the time. Don't you tell me the reason why I can't do it. This is what sucks about my day is that I on Friday at the fly to L.A.
Starting point is 00:46:19 to do your thing. I have to do psych eval for paradise. And then you go to New York. And then I'm literally doing it. And then the next morning I'm flying on set. You've already done a Psych Eval for this show. Why are you making me do it again? I totally agree.
Starting point is 00:46:33 I bitched at them. I was like, why do you? First of all, why am I doing a Psych Eval? I'm not going to be dating anybody. And they're like, well, actually, we want to make sure that you're the least crazy person considering you're going to be the one giving everyone alcohol. Yeah, but you did this a year ago. I agree.
Starting point is 00:46:47 What do you want me to tell you? It's insurance. It's insurance for the show. Make Ben call Elan. I don't know if Ben has more weight with Elan than I do. You don't think? I mean- I feel like everyone does whatever Ben says.
Starting point is 00:46:57 Yeah. I got a feeling we're going to see a little bit of Ben in Mexico. Yeah? I don't know, man. I got a feeling. That's funny. I wouldn't be surprised. This is what I think is going to happen.
Starting point is 00:47:07 Do you want me to, you want to give me my paradise prediction? And I, by the way. Do you know who else is going yet? No. And also your heart out's coming up pretty soon. Okay. You're right. We have 15 minutes.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Okay. Here's what I think is going to happen. Okay. Young Becca, obviously going to be there. Oh yeah. Like I think even Chris like kind of prompted that the women tell all. obviously going to be there. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:22 Like, I think even Chris, like, kind of prompted that, the women tell all. Totally. And I saw that picture of, like, her circling, doing a heart around Peter. Oh, I didn't see that. I got a feeling Peter's going to be there.
Starting point is 00:47:34 Well, I'll see him next weekend, so I'll find out. Yeah, ask, find out. I got a feeling Ben's going to be there only because Ben, like, didn't do anything in... On Winter Games? Yeah. Here's what I think is going to,
Starting point is 00:47:44 how it's going to happen. If there's not some outlier that comes out of this season, Ben's going to go to Paradise, get heartbroken or whatever, and then be the Bachelor again. Oh, boy. You know? I can see that happening. You're insane.
Starting point is 00:47:57 I feel like definitely a Kendall... Kendall's going to be there for sure. I want Sien to go. I just love her. But I feel like she's above Paradise. No offense. Ouch. Who do you want to see there?
Starting point is 00:48:10 I don't really know. You think Nick's going to show up? No. Well, I just saw him a couple weeks too in LA. Actually, this is the first time I ever met him, which is so weird. What did you think of him? He's so nice. Super nice guy.
Starting point is 00:48:21 Not that I didn't think he would be. I just didn't know. Great guy. Great guy. He's so nice. Brought me drinks all night long. But yeah, he was very, very sweet. so nice. Super nice guy. Not that I didn't think he would be. I just didn't know. Great guy. Great guy. So nice. Brought me drinks all night long. But yeah, he was very, very sweet. Very nice.
Starting point is 00:48:30 I also met, there were a bunch of Bachelor guys there I'd never met before. Yeah. Chase was one of them. But there were two other ones that I forgot about. But they were all very nice. But I wouldn't be shocked if Nick goes back to Paradise either. Here's the problem. People that have been there before know how fun it is to do. And so it's really hard if you get asked. So here's the problem people that have been there before know how fun it is to do
Starting point is 00:48:45 and so it's really hard if you get asked it's so here's the thing everyone wants to do paradise regardless if if if you don't go to paradise and you start you start pumping the like i don't want to do that that's bs because everyone is like how do you deal with the no air conditioning you sweat i can't do that i hate heat That would be the one thing that holds me back. Well, think about it in terms of being a woman, because your hair gets all frizzy. That's what I'm saying. I can't do it. Okay, wait, question. What's the name of the place where you guys film Paradise?
Starting point is 00:49:13 Playa Escondido. Oh, it's not Puerto Vallarta? It is outside of Puerto Vallarta in a little town called Sayulita. Okay, because when does Paradise start filming? June 1st. I got offered a free like resort trip vacation to puerto vallarta in june wait hold on is it the vedanta no la wait i can't pronounce this this is that close to you maybe i'll come say what up do you want me to tell you like the
Starting point is 00:49:36 behind the scenes stuff about all that stuff sure okay so it films outside of puerto vallarta in this town called sayulita home base for like and like every day you ever see anybody go on is at this resort called the Vedanta, which is fucking amazing. It's like Disneyland, but in Mexico. Dope. It's huge. So like all the production, all the camera guys, all the sound guys, all the producers, they all stay there.
Starting point is 00:50:00 And then every day there's like a bus that takes you to Sayulita and then there's like a lawn and a few other people will stay on site but for the most part everyone's coming in and out. So when you go to Paradise they put you up basically like at the beginning of
Starting point is 00:50:20 the show in the Vedanta and sometimes you will stay stuck at the Vedanta for days, weeks. Until they have you come over to the resort. I remember Lauren Himmel, the girl that I went on a double date with that first show, she was there for 11 days.
Starting point is 00:50:36 What? On like a free vacay? Yeah. That sounds amazing. But they take your phone away all that stuff. What? Even if you're just at the resort? Yeah, you're stuck, because if anyone sees you, they're going to take pictures and all that kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:50:46 I couldn't do that with my phone. But anyways, the Vedanta is not even an ad for them, but it's an awesome place. But yeah, if you go and I'm there, come to Sayulita. Okay. That's where I stay. Actually, who knows what's going to happen this time? That's wild. I know.
Starting point is 00:51:01 Oh, paradise. Almost paradise. I know. I love that show. Are you already brainstorming your intro package? No. I think I'm going to take a comprehensive bartending class. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:51:12 Because I knew... I mean, I bartended in college, and I know how to do it, but I was thinking I should be good at it. Yeah. You know, like throwing shit around. You should be able to like, yeah, be impressive. Right? Do tricks. Yes.
Starting point is 00:51:24 That would up your game for sure. Definitely. Is Sarah excited that you're going to Paradise or not? Yeah, she's going to come. I was going to ask that. Yeah. That's insane. Of course.
Starting point is 00:51:35 Is she going to be there the whole time? No, no, no. She's filming a movie, but I think that she wants to come. I think she just wants to see it. Yeah. See what it looks like. Right. You know?
Starting point is 00:51:43 That's so funny. She's a fan. It's hilarious. Have what it looks like. Right. You know? That's so funny. I love that she's a fan. It's hilarious. Have I told you what I really want to do? I think it would be so funny if she, like, she were to, like, come on set or whatever. It'll never happen because, like, they can't afford her probably. But, like, it'd be funny if she came on set and, like, helped me, like, wash glasses or something, like, pass out beers.
Starting point is 00:52:01 And then it cuts to, like, an interview. But the interview is of her and I on the dumpy couch maybe she'll do it I don't like maybe she'll just do it because it's funny yeah maybe I don't know oh man I would love that well I can't wait to watch you on paradise we'll see if I go you're going going. No contracts have been signed. We'll see what happens. All right. You want to go work out? It's time, I guess.
Starting point is 00:52:28 What was your favorite thing of this episode of your favorite thing? Maybe talking about the march. Yeah. That was my favorite part. What was yours? I liked realizing
Starting point is 00:52:36 that Shawn Mendes was totally doing a Kings of Leon thing. Oh my gosh. Wow. Okay. Well, I love you guys. I'm going to be gone

Starting point is 00:53:03 I do not do drugs What Or marijuana I don't do drugs. What? Or marijuana. I don't do that either. What is the point of going to that if you're not going to do the drugs? Just to hang with your friends and get tan and take content. Ugh. And record podcasts.
Starting point is 00:53:13 Okay, bye. Bye. You should do the drugs though. No. Pass. We have a new sponsor. Whoop, whoop, whoop. Yes.
Starting point is 00:53:23 I'm actually pumped about this sponsor. I am too. Not because I would ever use this, because I would. Why not? Maybe it would help you grow some facial hair. Ugh. Do you think? That's funny.
Starting point is 00:53:33 It probably won't, though. You're the last cause. I will say, though, that these are good. They taste good. That's what I'm saying. Gummy bears are my favorite food of all time. So the fact that I... So we're talking about sugar bear hair vitamins here. Yeah, we are.
Starting point is 00:53:43 And the fact that you can eat a gummy bear and there's vitamins in it and it's going to make your hair grow and be healthy, that's the best thing ever. Yeah. And like, here's pros for it. If it works and your hair grows, hell yeah. Great. And if it doesn't, it's a yummy snack. It's a great gummy bear. You're right.
Starting point is 00:54:01 And there's some practical things about it that I really, really like. It's vegetarian. Huge plus. It's gluten-free. I'm not a gluten-free person, but when I can eat gluten-free things, I feel better about myself. So it's great. And then my favorite thing is that it's cruelty-free. So we're all about animal love with the sugar bear hair vitamins.
Starting point is 00:54:19 I wonder if animals like them. I'm going to say it's probably not wise to give to Carl. Why? I don't think you should. I want Carl to say it's probably not wise to give to Carl. Why? I don't think you should. I want Carl to have a luxurious coat like a golden retriever now. I'm going to go ahead and protect the brand here and say that it's probably not approved for animal consumption. I will not do it. I wouldn't give it to Carl, but I enjoy eating them.
Starting point is 00:54:37 I've been taking them for the past few weeks now that I've had it. It's really great because they are doing a special like three month and six month on sale thing. If you want to go online and buy a package deal, you get a cute hairbrush and you get a cute bear pouch. I don't know, like call me crazy, but I just love long hair. I just think long hair is always the way. Healthy hair is what's attractive to guys, right? Okay. Like healthy, full, beautiful hair. I just think, and like, I'll get slaughtered for this because it's like sexist or whatever, but I really do like, I just think, and I'll get slaughtered for this because it's sexist or whatever, but I really do, I just feel like girls with long hair,
Starting point is 00:55:10 guys like that. Yeah, totally. It's feminine, it's girly, it's whatever. I was not blessed with great hair. I have my mother's fine, thin hair. It's very fragile, so I've always been a big fan of taking vitamins that will help counteract that. So I'm really pumped about the Sugar Bear Hair vitamins because they're yummy and it's like candy.
Starting point is 00:55:27 But they're good for me. All right. Get yourself some Sugar Bear Hair at sugarbearhair.com slash Amazon. Do it. Delicious. This podcast has been brought to you by Podcast Nation.
