Let me get it. Go get the bell.
Oh my god, this is what I gave you
for your birthday. That's such a nice bell.
I'm such a good friend.
Look at you with your notes on one iPad
and you're fucking recording
up on the laptop and you're
so professional. This is
I'm the engine that powers this thing.
True.
YFTers, we are broadcasting from the Brandy Cyrus estate in Franklin, Tennessee.
Would you call it an estate?
Yeah.
It's pretty cool.
I mean, when you drive out to this neighborhood, there are bigger estates.
Oh, yeah.
A lot bigger estates.
A lot bigger.
I'm the poorest person in the neighborhood.
This is the low-income housing version of Franklin.
It's so true.
I've never been to this house, though.
I know.
And I've been here a long time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've been to Miley's spot.
Which is behind us.
Okay.
But it's not hers anymore.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
But I gotta say, I miss Nashville.
You do, don't you?
Like, it hit hard today i bet it did
when's the last time you're here ben higgins wedding oh my god that was a while ago i know
yeah at least smart enough to know that the weather's not always like this no it's not but
it's so nice i know it's like 80 degrees i'm wearing jeans totally fine you just forget how
green it is out here everybody says says that when they come back.
Especially out here,
in Nashville proper, it's more of
an urban landscape, but once you get out
into the Brentwood, Franklin area, you're like, man,
it's like a...
Because we live in such a weird world in the
entertainment industry that you don't need to be in LA
anymore. No.
It used to be this thing where when you would do
your auditions... No, I know.
You had to be there. Yeah. Your slate had to be like Wells Adams, six foot tall, 40 years old,
local to Los Angeles. Like that was one of the important things in the slate. And now it's like,
I don't give a fuck where you live. No. People book so much on EcoCast now, which is like a
Zoom version of auditioning basically it's pretty cool not really relatable
but i don't like that i like being in the room with people i do too because i can really charm
the pants off you for acting which is i know is not what you're doing but a lot of the smaller
roles they won't even do in-person auditions anymore so it's like you don't even get the
chance you know it's so nice out here i know and here's the thing. What happened to the airport?
Because it's like a fucking Apple store now.
Oh, yeah.
We got nonstops to London now.
Really?
Yes, we do.
So when I was here, the big joke about B&A Airport was the carpets were so bad that they had their own Instagram handle called like B&A Carpets.
B&A Carpet.
And you'd take a picture of your feet.
I miss that.
I know.
And I got off the plane and I'm like, what is, I feel like I'm at an Apple store.
I know.
It's so nice now.
I miss the old BNA, to be honest.
Why?
It was just so much easier to fucking navigate.
Really?
Yeah. Now it's too big?
It's too busy.
Well, I got to say, it seems so nice. It's fine big it's too busy well i gotta say that seems
so nice fine there's like a hotel now there just opened that seems great just opened also shout
out i was on american airlines flight last night and the stewardess wrote me a little note and gave
me wings and said like i don't want to blow your, but it's so cool to see you on the plane.
It is?
I guess.
See?
Of all the people flying from LA to Nashville, she picked you to give wings to?
I mean, I imagine any D-list celebrity would have been appropriate.
Interesting.
You know, you have all these stories of, like of the airplane fucking you over.
I'm over here getting wings.
Are you in first class?
No, I wasn't.
You're in coach?
Yeah, because I bought this plane ticket myself.
I'm so proud of you.
Wow.
And you know what?
I will talk shit about American Airlines.
I'm like a priority status or whatever.
Doesn't give you shit, does it?
It never upgrades me.
Yeah, no.
When do I get upgraded?
Never.
Never.
And I saw the guy that got upgraded.
He was right next to me,
like across the thing.
And they were like,
he was like,
hey, come with me.
I'm like, fuck.
That could have been me.
Yeah.
But it was fine.
I don't really care.
So anyways,
I'm excited to go
adventure around Nashville.
And obviously this episode's
coming out the day
that we're doing a show in Nashville.
And I would say if you're one of the 50 people that are coming to this show, maybe don't listen to this episode.
Because I have a feeling that I'm going to use some same material.
You are?
Do you have new material?
I have no material ever.
Exactly.
Okay, but I'm a little disappointed in this because I feel like
This is your moment to test some stand up
Here's the thing
I haven't had time to do it
What are you doing tomorrow?
You want me to write a stand up set tomorrow?
Just like a quick 15 minutes
Oh okay
Seems easy enough
I was thinking maybe I'd just do crowd work
You know?
Yeah you could do a little of that I feel like you should do a quick stand up routine Seems easy enough. I was thinking maybe I'd just do crowd work. You know? Yeah.
You could do a little of that.
I feel like you should do like a quick stand-up routine.
Five minutes.
I gotta remember.
I gotta learn.
That's easy.
That's the easy part.
Maybe so.
I believe in you.
You are completely relying on me to take care of this whole thing tomorrow.
That's the whole podcast.
I know.
We need to figure out the rev share to be
a little bit different here i don't see why this is 50 50 this gig huh that's true you did that
would be me that's true so all right so your booking fee is yep okay that's right well my
agents take 15 so there's 15 right there not to mention my appearance fee are you kidding me
oh no i did this without my team knowing so they're not getting anything
yes finally unless they're listening to this and then they're gonna be like
fuck them so yeah maybe if you're coming to the show tonight don't okay i mean i'll try to write
some stuff yeah can't be hard just go through some of the the old classics yeah you know yeah
just went to a wedding in monterey i'm about to go to so many
dude my best friend kirsten just asked me to be her maid of honor oh really yeah oh that's a lot
of pressure i know what are you gonna do um well you know i my the speech i gave at my mom's wedding
i like almost winged that really like i prepped it a little the night before but I did not I didn't do a whole lot of prep. Yeah.
You know me. Yeah. I'm a clever.
No I know. But I killed it.
So. So I think like
maybe I'll prep a little more for the
speech but I'm thinking like it's maybe better
to just like fly by the seat of your pants.
Alright. I mean
not the way that I would go about things.
I'll prep a little. Okay.
I'll have some notes. Yeah, some bullet points.
Bullet points.
I love bullet points.
But hold on.
There's much more to being a maid of honor than just giving a speech.
Yeah, what else do I have to do?
You have to plan the bachelorette party.
Oh, I was already signed up for that.
So I was already doing that.
Signed up?
You have to plan it.
Yeah.
So what are you doing?
Where are you going?
She wants to go to Africa, actually.
Jesus Christ.
I know.
But I like like it was
kind of my idea to be honest and i did this like a year ago i was like who's affording
going to africa for a bachelorette party well like it's these days our other friend just went
to cabo and it was like four grand to go to cabo i was like no okay well how much is to go to africa
i feel like we could do it for like four or five grand i mean it's a flight over there's four or
five grand it's like 900 bucks if you book it right now really if you find coach okay do not fly coach i'm not flying
coach i think she i think she will because she always flies coach overseas okay well you know
you should do your gift to her uh-huh for her wedding gift is well upgrading her but that's
four thousand dollars dude you can't have you can't have her flying coach to have a 20-hour
flight it's not quite that far there's a non-stopstop from New York to Kenya now, and it's like 13 hours.
Oh, my goodness gracious.
It's not terrible.
I did coach one time Atlanta to Cape Town, and I survived.
Can I just tell everyone out there, okay, here's the rule about flying.
If you're flying more than, let's say, five hours.
I think seven.
I think I could do seven in economy.
No.
Yeah.
I think-
Over seven.
Over five, you have to.
I know it's so much more money,
but your life is so much better.
Wells, it's so much more money.
I know, but-
We're talking the difference between $900 and four grand.
No.
Yes.
$900 and like-
No.
For this, i literally just looked
at flights for kenya it's worth 900 for coach four grand for business and i also have been
looking at flights to go to australia the difference is like a thousand for economy or
like eight thousand for business class yes it is i look it up well that's crazy the difference is
fucking wild all right but then i didn't i take that back but i do think that if you are flying
over five hours i i personally agree because I've flown business class so much,
like now I'm just spoiled.
Yeah.
But I do think if you've never done it,
you don't really know what you're missing.
Okay.
So my advice would be don't start.
Never do it.
Unless you know you can maintain it.
Yeah.
Cause that's where I'm at.
That's the pickle I'm in is that my bougie ass has been flying business class
now for like six years.
And now when I'm like looking at flights to Australia, it's like, oh, 7,000 more dollars for business.
I think I have to.
Or I can't go.
It's like when you get VIP tickets to a concert.
Yeah, you can never go back to GA.
You can't.
Never.
Be back with the peasants?
No.
Gen pop?
Not for me.
Gen?
No.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I need access.
I need the bathrooms to be nice. I know. Oh man. Champagne problems. True. All right. Dude, I'm getting so tired of my meal
planning, my grocery shopping, trying to cook every single night. It's a huge hassle. It's
even more difficult when I'm in New York with Sarah.
So I recently started getting my food from Hungry Root. Have you heard of this?
I have. Hungry Root is the easiest way to eat healthy. They send you fresh, high quality
groceries and simple, delicious recipes and even essential supplements if you're looking for that.
And they have someone else do all of the planning and shopping so you don't have to think about it
at all. Honestly, it sounds like exactly the perfect thing for me. Yeah, they personalize your cart with all the
groceries that you'd need for the week, including four ingredient recipes to put those groceries to
use. So like nothing goes to waste, which I love. Each order is fully customizable so you can take
their suggestions or you can choose anything else you want. They've also got fresh produce,
high quality meat and seafood,
healthy snacks, smoothies, sweets, ready-to-eat meats,
kids' snacks and meals, vitamins and supplements, and so much more.

Okay.
And I went there, and we went on 9-11,

And there was no playoff.
Okay.
So whatever.

Yeah.
You're using the bell a lot today.
I feel it.
It was a nice bell.
It is a nice bell.
Thank you.
Should we start the show?
Yeah.
I said that earlier.
I feel like it's you do the honors because you're visiting.
Okay.
Let's start the show.
Time to start. the fucking show bros and hoes you're listening
to your favorite thing podcast with wells and brandy do we have any bachelor at fallout that
we need to talk about fallout like i saw that devin went and like showed screenshots and stuff sick of giving devin
like a fucking platform and like a tent like it's not worth my breath i know it's how i feel
and now she's doing dancing with the stars love that for her with joey love that for them which
that seems interesting because usually they only pick one person to do it i know and that's gonna
be tough because now you are,
you're asking a lot of Bats or Nation to do the voting.
Yeah.
You know?
And I feel like everyone's going to sympathy vote Jen because of what just happened.
Which is deserved.
I mean, Joey's like happily in love with Kelsey.
Yeah, Joey's fine.
He doesn't need to win dance at the stars, you know?
He doesn't.
No.
I'm obsessed with Kelsey.
She's so great.
Love her.
You got some fave things, bro?
Bro, I fucking cruised
through that perfect couple Netflix series
I was telling you about last week.
I watched it as well.
You're finished with it?
Oh, yeah.
When one lavish wedding ends in a disaster
before it can even begin
with a body discovered at Nantucket
Harbor just hours before
the ceremony, everyone
in the wedding party is suddenly a
suspect. The perfect couple.
Were you shocked by the ending or no?
Called it the first episode. I know.
Me too. I feel like
you are the one that told me this once.
Hold on. Before you say this,
if you haven't seen this, spoiler alert seconds ahead okay because it's going to ruin it
for you oh for sure like we are ruining the show for you right this yeah okay i forget what show
it was but there was some show we watched and there was a really big name that played a very
small role yes and i remember you telling me that you figured that at the end xyz would happen
because they wouldn't cast such a massive name for a small
part,
unless it had a big impact that Sarah taught me this.
Yes.
But you taught me this.
And so when I like two episodes in,
I'm like,
why did Dakota Fanning pick this role?
And then I remembered you said that.
And I was like,
Ooh,
and she was a fucking bitch from day from like the first episode,
you know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Immediately.
I was like,
God dang it.
I know it's going to happen here. Cause at the end you you they do throw you for a loop you're like oh it's
it's definitely nicole kibman or it's definitely the french girl yeah but then i was like now to
stick with it i do think the thing that was good is the only reason i wondered why it would be her
is because i'm like what's her fucking motive like why would she do it yeah well it all comes together you're like yeah but that that was like a good ploy is like save it
till the end to explain with a motive because otherwise it wouldn't too easy yeah i just love
how nicole kidman's like hey we've got a script for you nicole and she's like all right do is my
husband hot in it i know and she's like they're like yes and she's like okay um is it in like a beautiful coastal city or coastal town yes it is actually in nantucket
okay great can i drink coffee with like while wearing like a chunky knit sweater and like look
off into this it's like fuck yeah we can do that and she's like all right i'm in i'm in i'll do it uh-huh the only thing that i don't love about this show okay i don't know why because it's it's fun and
whatever is the dancing thing in the in the like in the intro the intro yeah people love that i
know i don't like it why not because i don't understand it well i don't think it's meant to
be understood i think it should be understood i don't think that i don't understand it. Well, I don't think it's meant to be understood. I think it should be understood.
I don't think so.
I don't understand things.
I think it's just an intro.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I will say, and I don't know if it's, I think, partly because the girl from White Lotus is in it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But it was giving White Lotus vibes.
For sure.
The whole thing.
Yeah.
Which is okay, because White Lotus was amazing, but.
Yeah.
Yeah. Do you think Liev Schreiber is hot? Not really. Which is okay, because White Lotus was amazing, but... Yeah. Yeah.
Do you think Liev Schreiber is hot? Not really. Really?
Not really. Yeah, no, I
get it. I get the appeal. Sure.
The guy that's married to Dakota
Fanning? Freaking hilarious.
Loved him. He was one of my faves.
Do you think that she is going
to be okay with the book that was
written about her? I don't know. Probably not. Yeah. Do you think that she is going to be okay with the book that was written about her? I don't know.
Probably not.
Yeah.
Do you think that that book gives them the opportunity to do a season two?
Yeah.
I feel like that's how they're going to do it.
Yeah.
She's in, what's that other show?
That Netflix show.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
No.
I can look it up.
Yeah.
Eve Hewson she's known for robin hood bridge of spies enough said flora and son oh behind her eyes oh
behind her that's what i was thinking of i loved that show but i kind of feel like she plays the
same character a lot yeah you know is she british probably irish oh hey you know what there's enough Yeah. You know. Is she British? Probably. Irish. Oh.
Hey, you know what?
There's enough of these Brits taking American jobs.
I'm tired of it, guys.
Yeah. I'm good with it.
Because they're so good at doing the American accent.
Americans need to fucking rise above, you know?
Rise to the occasion.
Rise to the occasion.
Get with it.
How old is she?
Does it say?
I don't know if it says this anymore.
Oh, 1991. Thirty-three 33 that's it yeah oh wow i thought she was like at least my age that's crazy what are you saying she's old
i thought she looked older than that yeah yeah i started watching a show called dark winds
is that on netflix oh it's 2022 am i i this was new. Well, read the little synopsis.
I think I watched the trailer of this.
Follows Leigh Porn and Chi, two Navajo police officers in the 1970s Southwest that are forced to challenge their own spiritual beliefs when they search for clues in a double murder, Dark Winds.
Yep, I watched this trailer.
murder dark winds yep i watched this trailer so george rr martin from game of thrones he created this with robert redford what so when i saw that i was like dude this is a really good cat this is
like obviously it should be really really good story yeah and it's fantastic really so okay i'll
watch that yeah so it's a period piece. It's taking place in the 70s,
and it opens with this bank robbery
that it's like an armored car,
and a helicopter comes down,
and they land right in front of the armored car,
and they blow up the back of it,
and they take all the money,
and then they jump back in the helicopter,
and they fly out of town towards Navajo country, I guess.
The FBI is thinking that this bank robbery
is done by Navajo
because that's where the helicopter went.
And then at the same time,
this Joe Leeporn,
who's like the sheriff in the Indian reservation,
he's also dealing with a murder
that has like really weird things going on,
like real spiritual stuff.
There's a little bit of like witchcraft going on in it that's cool along with he gets a new deputy
named jim chi who is like helping him solve these murders but then you find out he actually is a
special agent for the fbi and really there to figure out what happened to the money so it's
like two stories going on. Real kind of spooky.
Dark Winds, check it out.
I think it's great.
Interesting.
Okay.
And it's on Netflix.
So there you go.
I wonder why it's old and we're just now like seeing it.
I know.
Well, it's on AMC.
I feel like maybe there's multiple seasons.
Maybe it came out there and then now it's on Netflix.
Yeah.
Did you see the video of Bon Jovi saving the life of that lady?
No, but I heard about it.
Dude.
It was here in Nashville.
It happened in Nashville.
I know.
So I assume it was on the pedestrian bridge.
It's somewhere downtown.
It looked like it was.
Yeah.
So if you guys haven't seen this, it was Jon Bon Jovi.
So it's a girl that's on the other side of the rail
she's like looking down they've got video of it have you seen the video no i want to see it
so it's definitely the pedestrian bridge okay so here she is why is no one else paying attention
no one that is crazy okay so here comes some woman i think this is Bon Jovi's wife And she sees what's going on And then Bon Jovi
Looking all cool
Walks over to her
And starts talking to her
He waves to her
She waves back
He leans over the rail
And he's just like
What a beautiful view
You know
Or whatever
And then the wife is
Whatever right there
Can you imagine
If you were about to
End it all
And then Bon Jovi
Comes to save you?
No, it would be nuts.
You're like, hey, just sing.
Shot through the heart and you're too late.
No, I wasn't too late.
I'm not too late to save you.
Look at him talking.
This is crazy.
The wife is like holding her shoulder.
Yeah.
Rubbing her back and stuff.
She's like, come on, come on, get over, jump over,
jump back over.
Let's not.
I'm Bon Jovi.
I'm Jon Bon Jovi.
This is nuts that nobody else.
Look at them saving her.
Oh.
And there's a photographer.
What the heck?
You see that?
Is this staged?
No, they were shooting a music video.
They were?
Bon Jovi was.
That's what I read.
So this is just real or is this part of the music video? Well, I think it was real.
She was like, well, all the day is to try to
end it all. I have
to do it on the day that Jon Bon
Jovi is shooting the music video. Wow.
What a guy, huh? What a guy.
Love that. If you
were going to jump off... Don't love that she was going
to jump. Love that he saved her. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just to clarify. And hopefully, maybe if she could talk to better help that'd be great was that gross that
i did that that way a little okay um if you were about to end it all i wouldn't be who you could
i don't think so i mean who knows i'm okay i'm good. But if you were, what celebrity would you want talking you off the ledge?
Good question.
Great question.
You know,
I really just always just loved Rachel McAdams.
Like if I turned around and saw her,
I'd be like,
oh my God.
Oh my God, the notebook.
I'm good now.
What role of Rachel McAdams do you want saving you is it from like wedding crashers rachel mcadams
probably not no book no she was a little nuts there too i don't know i just love her interesting
yeah didn't see that coming. What would you think?
I would have thought you would have said, like, Jason Momoa.
No, I don't need fucking Jason Momoa out here.
Some, like, big hulking man.
Nah.
Who's foreign.
Nah, I don't need a man.
I mean, actually, he's Hawaiian, so he's not foreign.
Who would I want?
You know.
I don't need a man saving me.
Oh, it's a tough one.
Yeah.
Like a puppet.
I'd want like a Henson puppet.
Huh.
Grover.
Okay.
You know?
Sure.
Listen.
Nothing makes me happier than freaking Grover.
You know who I would actually fucking pick?
Who?
Matthew McConaughey. Yeah. He'd be very soothing. That's who I would actually fucking pick? Who? Matthew McConaughey.

That's who I want.
Yeah.

How about how the president got shot at again and no one really gives a shit?
I didn't even know.
Yeah, yesterday.
Wait, what?
Yeah, he was playing golf and some guy had a gun.
You're fucking kidding.
Yeah.
People are like, meh.
Why is that not news?
I mean, it is, but people are like, eh, it's already happened.
Is this year okay?
Yeah.
All right, it's fine.
Whatever.
You didn't know that? Did he actually get hit this time? No. Oh. It was just like, I don't, yeah, but people are like, eh, it's already happened. Is this year okay? Yeah? All right, it's fine. Whatever. You didn't know that?
Did he actually get hit this time?
No.
Oh.
It was just like, I don't, yeah, I don't.
That's fucking crazy.
People need to fucking relax.
Chill out, bro.
Yeah.
How about how they're eating fucking pets in Springfield?
I heard about that.
I heard about that.
It did.
Holy shit, dude.
Yep.
That's the world which we live in.
That's a debate topic where they're like,
but what about the pets being eaten by the Haitian immigrants?
Uh-huh.
Like, that's not happening.
Did you watch that debate?
Not the whole thing.
It was pretty funny because he would say,
Trump would say stuff,
and then the moderators would be like,
okay, so none of that's true.
And then he's like,
you guys were all teaming up on me, teaming up against me. But it was be like, okay, so none of that's true. And then he's like, you guys were all teaming up on me,
teaming up against me.
But it was just like, well, no,
they were just like saying if what you were saying
is true or not.
Right.
Which, like, we talked to the city organizer of Springfield
and he says that those claims are not happening at all.
He's like, well, of course he's saying that.
He's the city organizer. He doesn't want people knowing. The. He's like, well, of course he's saying that. He's the city organizer.
He doesn't want people knowing.
The other one was like,
did you know that they're having post-birth abortions?
Oh, yeah, I saw that.
That's murder.
Right.
So, no, that's not happening.
That's a crazy thing.
That's actually, yeah, a different thing.
Have you heard of what Mormon Face is?
No, but I'm shocked you haven't talked about
this new Secret Lives of Mormon Wives show. I know. I want to watch it so badly yeah have you seen it i haven't yet but i just
thought like it was right up your alley well i think we talked about it a little bit when
well because the bachelor was promoting the shit out of it well yeah but i also played the thing
where they were like we're into soft swinging remember like that's how the trailer goes and
it's like you guys aren't even morm anymore. You're just like fucking normal, shitty Americans.
What would Joseph Smith think?
Don't know.
I've been thinking about this a lot, actually.
Okay.
When you are repressed sexually, 16 to like 22 or whatever, and you're like super repressed,
then when you finally get out of that repression, you're the fucking weirdest person sexually.
Like you have all these kids at byu who've never
fucking done anything and now they're now they're so like that's the weirdest thing ever
and then here's the thing though you know that this is kind of what happens like if you if
whatever you're kind of doing when you're first becoming sexually active that becomes kind of
your kink does it i think what's yours i'm not telling you
it takes you back to a time of which like it was really really exciting i guess so and if that is
like your kink is like weird shit that's so weird yeah and that's why i think that like that's true
yes okay not not for nothing but like Catholic priest stuff, super repressed.
True.
And then their thing is horrible.
I don't know if I should cut this, but I think that it's a huge disservice to not allow people to be sexually active young.
I kind of agree, except like the lines just so like, it's such a fine line, you know?
I know.
You don't want people out here getting pregnant at 13, but you also.
Totally.
But that's fine line.
That's why I think that like contraceptives are good.
No, I know.
I know.
Birth controls are good.
I know.
Condoms are good.
But the 14 year olds are too fucking dumb.
I don't think 14, I think 14 is too young.
I'm just saying.
But like you become, when did you become sexually active?
Way, way late. Really? Yeah.s really oh yeah i had sex in high school most people like
that's a normal thing so it's i guess like all my la friends yeah 14 okay crazy that's insane
14 okay i think i was like making out with chicks 14 is when you're a freshman. Yeah, but I was 15 as a freshman.
The West Coast kids are having sex at 14.
I mean, I don't know.
We watch Euphoria.
They're shooting up heroin.
They're doing a lot at 14.
And then doing anal threesomes.
The more I think about it, I think that the people that, to me, are the most normal are the ones that have had like normal sexual experiences as young
people that's probably true that's probably true yeah yeah i don't know you gotta be safe and i'm
gonna listen i'm gonna tell all you parents out there how to raise your kids you know because
you've got so much experience so much experience i know exactly what's going on right i don't know
but anyways the mormons are crazy man well i think the problem is like, dare I say, like when it's like a religion that's telling you you can't do it right and then kids are just going to find ways around it.
Yeah.
And it's when you're trying to find ways around it that I feel like it starts to get messy.
Right? terrible about religion being the catalyst for celibacy is it places guilt on something that's
very natural yes and so then it becomes like a bad thing uh-huh but you can't we can't help it
we're hardwired i know for it you know see for me it wasn't really as much about religion my mom had
me at 17 so from the time i was fucking 13 years old she was like
do not have sex or will you you will get pregnant like me and you will be a teenage mom yeah and i
did not want that she like scared the shit out yeah yeah scare tactic is fine yeah i think it's
better than saying like you're gonna go to hell yeah yeah well i remember when i was coming through
they were like, AIDS.
Watch out for AIDS.
Now looking back, it's like, no, don't worry about AIDS.
What are you talking about?
But I was deathly afraid.
I thought the second I had sex, I was going to get AIDS.
Jesus.
I think the pregnancy.
Our parents are fucking crazy.
I remember that.
Yeah.
I remember we were, you know, as kids, we did like a blood brother pact.
Oh, yeah.
You know?
And we told teachers and they're like,
you can get AIDS that way.
It's like,
what?
This is how you get AIDS?
Oh,
gee.
I do think scare tactic is a good thing.
I think the pregnancy one is good.
It worked.
I mean, I didn't,
didn't have sex until I was.
And STD one's good too.
But like,
also like what 16 year old has herpes?
I mean,
that's not a thing.
I mean, I guess it could be, but obviously like the older you get, the higher chance
of that.
But yeah.
And also I remember they were like trying to scare us with HPV to find out that like
everyone has HPV.
What are you talking about?
Yeah.
But like my mom, I'm pretty sure, I don't think we have to cut this.
I think she said this before.
I'll make sure.
But my mom got pregnant with me the first time she had sex with my dad, my biological dad.
The first time they had sex, she got pregnant.
And so I think like she was, right?
Like that to her, it was like, well, first time I had sex, I had you.
So that's going to happen to you is kind of how she sold it to me.
You know what I mean?
I think that if you're raising kids that are in high school and stuff, you can use the scare tactic of pregnancy because
that is a real it is scary thing it is very scary thing it is because then even then you make a
decision you know you have to make a choice which right now every you know every woman out there is
fighting for that ability to have that choice yeah but you don't want to have to have that choice
right so the scare tactic needs to be like you can't get pregnant you do not want that right so
you need to wear condoms yeah okay yeah the problem is when you're young guys are like oh
it just doesn't feel as good and then you're like young and stupid so you're like oh okay
but it means to be both ways for the guys too it's like no i know but that but it wasn't right
like i feel like when we were young it was like more put on like the girls right and like girls
kind of get that pressure more i think than guys i of like you could get pregnant yeah like i don't i don't recall my
parents having these conversations with my brothers you know what i mean yeah here's the
thing i don't think my parents ever told me about it and then it should have been a conversation
that we had yeah but it was one of those things that they didn't want to admit that what was
happening to me was happening to me which was was, I was in a relationship with,
yeah.
Yeah.
So anyways,
there you go.
I just solved all the parents problems. We solved it all.
We solved it all.
That's what we're here to do.
I know.
Wow.
But those Mormons,
man,
they're crazy.
I think I might start watching that show like tonight.
So I've got some material for,
do any of them live in Nashville now?
Can we invite them on the pod?
I don't know,
but you know,
one of them is, was on? Can we invite them on the pod? I don't know, but you know one of them was on
Claire Crowley's season of The Bachelor.
So he's just like a guy that wants to be on reality TV.
Really? Yeah. Which one?
Is he memorable?
No, I don't know. No.
By the way, I have an idea for a new reality show
that I want to create.
Then you shouldn't talk about it because someone will steal it. I know.
When I went to Yellowstone, we went
on hot air balloons.
Yes, we talked about that.
And balloon culture is wild.
That's a thing?
These guys are bonker people.
Huh.
They're very eccentric.
Okay.
They've got all these like young interns who have to like run into fields, like grab the balloons.
Balloon culture is crazy.
Okay.
And I desperately want to make a show
about balloon culture.
Would people watch that?
I don't think so.
No.
But it would be funny.
Okay.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Balloon culture.
Balloon culture.
What is this?
It's your iPad.
AI to make a hit country song
called My Weenie Shaves Like a Horseshoe.
No.
It didn't.
Oh, my weenie's shaped like a horseshoe.
And when I pee, it soaks my shorts too.
It's a real life country man's dilemma.
All I want is one shit like a car antenna
My wiener's peeing on itself
I'm crying out for any help
Cause baby, I'ma need some jeans
That are soaked up with all this pee
A normal wiener's all I want
I'm stuck with a horseshoe
I play one day, I'll just wake up And have a normal silver Oh my God.
It's so good.
Is it?
Because I'm reading the text and it pops up
and I'm not sure if it's the word I'd pick.
Dude,
AI is getting
way too good. AI wrote that
entire thing. Wow. I wonder what
the first AI podcast is
going to be like.
And will it be better than this one? Probably.
Yeah, probably. What else do you got?
I cruised through
the rest of the episodes of emily in paris
okay um so if you haven't watched them maybe fast forward 30 seconds because i'm about to go on a
tiny little rant starting now if she fucking gets back together with gabrielle i'm gonna fucking
lose it yeah he is trash trash trash trash i like i get it he thought he was doing the right thing because his ex was having a baby and he was trying
to be there for her.
But like, you just can't like have your cake and eat it too.
And you just can't be wishy-washy back and forth.
Like, let the girl move on.
Totally.
You know, she's moved on.
She found a hot Italian who I'm obsessed with.
Yeah.
I am team Marcello.
He is so lovely.
I love the Italians.
They're just so just passionate and just like lovely people and the
food there's amazing and she is just gonna move to italy and she found her new man and now fucking
gabrielle is gonna come back and ruin it why and i have a huge problem with this dude what show is
this emily in paris oh emily and perry but now she's in rome oh now she's in rome emily and roma
i haven't seen a single episode of that. Well, it's like
so bad it's good. Yeah. And
Is that the shtick though? Yeah.
Kind of. It's
Darren. Chris. Chris.
He's the creator. I think of it.
So, you know, it's a little cheesy, but it's
cute. I love Lily Collins and
this fucking Gabrielle guy
has been, you know,
in the mix since season one and just constantly causing problems and wreaking havoc on Emily's emotional stability.
And now that she's finally found a guy that just seems like an absolute gem.
Yeah.
I really am going to fucking lose it if he ruins this for her.
Oh.
You know?
Mm-hmm.
So that's all I have to say about that.
Yikes. Yeah. What season are we on on that show? I-hmm. So, that's all I have to say about that. Yikes.
Yeah.
What season are we on on that show?
I think three.
Okay.
Seems like a lot.
Yeah.
I don't think it's something you need to watch,
to be honest.
Okay, good.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
I heard this amazing story the other day.
These guys I was playing golf with
were telling me about a bachelor party.
I now kind of want to make it into a movie.
Like, it sounds like such a funny.
Okay, so.
So you're just making shows and movies these days?
We got a reality show.
We got a balloon guy show.
I'm an idea guy, all right?
Okay.
Don't be trying to kill my idea guy.
I'm just curious what you've been up to, you know?
So these guys are talking about this bachelor party that they went on
that was an absolute nightmare.
And this guy plans like this trip like into the mountains where there's like a lake and so we all go to
this like lake house or whatever and it's just the guys are there but they had planned out that the
the bachelorette party was going to be in the same in the same town but like in a different house or
whatever i love that the bachelor party and the bachelorette party for some reason like ended up
meeting up at like the bar.
They were all at the same bar.
Right.
And so the groom ends up inviting all the bachelorettes back over to their house.
He doesn't tell anyone that he's doing that.
So they get back to the cabin for just the guys.
And then all of a sudden the girls show up and the best man is like, hey, man man i've got some girls coming over for like to do
to dance you know the groom's like you got you can't have them you gotta get rid of them he's
like i've already paid for them like what are you talking about like this is a bachelor party like
what why did you invite the girls over here this is supposed to be a bachelor party so he's like
you gotta cancel it so he ends up canceling it.
I think he had to eat like whatever the down payment.
And they sat there and they played board games all night.
And all the guys were like, what the fuck is happening here?
Right?
Right.
The girls end up finding out that there were supposed to be girls coming over.
And then this huge fight happens.
The groom gets really mad at the best man.
They start getting into a fight, like an absolute, like a real fist fight.
He kicks him out of the wedding.
Oh, geez.
The best man ends up leaving.
Everyone's like, this is the most awkward fucking thing in the world.
And that's how it ends.
Is that good? I mean mean it's a pretty funny story
this is a good movie it could be you need a third act right so the first act is like what the fuck
are these girls doing at the bar the second act is like they're back here the girls aren't coming
over and whatever the third act is i we haven't figured that out but it's pretty funny what like
the the the fight and the kicking out of the wedding is hilarious.
That's good.
You know?
Yep.
Maybe the strippers
do need to come
and like that's the issue.
I feel like that, yeah.
Then maybe one dies.
That'd be good.
You know?
Yeah.
Then maybe who did it
or whatever.
You have anything else?
I think that's it.
I got some musics.
Yeah.
This Royal Otis band
I really like a lot.
This is a song called Till the Morning that I've been digging on.
I miss those days, stay awake and bleed into both.
All our mistakes, we shared no enemies in.
And maybe it's my fault.
Or maybe I just don't believe
In you when it's hurting
Time has seen you change
So why won't you stay with me
Till the morning's when it all falls down As Royal Otis till the morning So when it all falls down
As Royal Otis till the morning
I really like that band.
Really mellow though.
And Brandy can't hear it,
but this is what you would say.
It's very well.
Yeah.
Love you.
You got anything?
Yeah, my girl Dasha put out
the rest of her deluxe album on Friday.
She's got a new song called Bye Bye Bye that's so
freaking catchy.
That girl writes the catchiest songs.
Bye, bye, bye.
Love the album art too.
She's a cutie. You want to go out on it?
Yeah.
What do you got coming up?
Well, I got our show

Super important, you know, big deal.
And then I'm going to pop over
to LA on Thursday.
I'm speaking at a fundraiser for the
American Moth Horse Conservation. Wow.

part of the committee for that for
a few years now, so I'm hopping over there
to be part of that. If you're in LA
and you are interested in learning about that at all or
coming to support, it's in Santa Monica on Thursday.
So tomorrow
I'll post a link for tickets on my
Instagram today. And then I
fly to Vegas on Friday. Play Vegas on Friday
with Dylan Francis. And then I come home.
Nice. What about you?
By the way, I saw that someone sent it to me that
Casey Musgraves
was thinking about buying a mule. Anyone
have suggestions about mules? And I was like, I about buying a mule, anyone have suggestions about mules?
And I was like, I'm a big mule guy over here.
Oh, I thought you were thinking me.
Well, you like them, but I'm a mule guy.
Yeah, Casey and I used to ride together.
I was the one that helped connect her with the woman she bought her horse, Meesmo, from.
Oh, really?
Yeah, so I'll just text her.
Just text her.
Like, I heard you're into mules.
I'm into mules.
My friend Wells is an expert.
Loves a mule, yeah.
What are you doing?
I'm going to Birmingham for my college buddy's golf tournament, and then I go to New York City.
New York.
And then back to Los Angeles.
That's it.
Cool.
But I am very excited for this live show tonight.
Same.
It's going to be fun.
It hangs with some of the YFTers. Same. It's going to be fun. It just hangs with some of the YFTers.
Yeah, it's going to be good.
And if you are coming, come early because I guess we're having drinks and stuff beforehand.
Yeah, I think it starts at four.
We'll do a little mingling.
It seems early for a show, right?
I thought the same.
But that's what they wanted to do, so that's what we're doing.
We need to post something that says, like, if you're coming, it's at four.
Well, I think if you bought tickets, it's probably on there.
Fair enough.
Alright.
See you later.
Bye. Bye-bye. Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Appropriate song to go out on, I suppose.
