Your Favorite Thing with Wells & Brandi - Court is in session!!
Episode Date: March 29, 2023Your hosts are fresh off planes and ready to rumble as they recap their travels to NYC and Austin. Wells is a big Austin guy these days, no offence to Nashville. Brandi is Team Gweny and fills Wells i...n on the most dramatic ski trial ever, sourcing all her news from the wonderful app TikTok, that the people are trying to take away from us. Shoutout to the CEO for giving his spiel in Congress. They also apparently reopened one of the Murdaugh cases, so it’s just a big court episode today. Much to Brandi’s discomfort, Wells is on a Hunger Games kick, dick deep in the Capitol. Also, Wells can’t get a hold of his manager because he represents all the Vanderpump people and apparently there is DRA-MA going down there. Are we a news podcast now?

thing. Do it. I look greasy AF. Why do you look so crazy? Because I was in the club until 4 a.m. last night and hopped on the jet plane, landed, walked in the door, made a coffee, and here we are.
You know, I think it's so funny that you have a job where it makes you do something that I don't
think that you like to do, which is stay up late around people who are drunk all the time.
like to do, which is stay up late around people who are drunk all the time.
I was just saying this to somebody. The fact that I ended up with this job makes no sense.
I don't like to drink a lot.
I know.
I'm not really a partier.
I don't like to be up late.
I really don't like clubs.
You don't even like people.
I really don't even like people.
You want a boyfriend that doesn't even live in the same town that you live in. Town? Try country. Yeah, you want a boyfriend that doesn't even live in the same town of that you live in town
try like country yeah you want only town you need to get you on like 90 day fiance
oh god you're going the other way but the thing is is like the russian guy that we find
he so badly wants to come to america and don't let him. No, he can't.
I don't think I want that.
Nah.
It's better for everyone if we keep a little ocean in between us, you know?
Yeah.
This is what I'm going to do for you.
I'm going to call up the people, the good folks at 90 Day Fiancé.
I'm going to get you on that show.
And we're going to do the reverse 90 Day Fiancé
where we're going to find you like someone from Nigeria
or something.
And you're going to fall in love.
I'm going to treat you like a queen.
But the funny thing is that you're never going to allow him
to come to America.
I feel like this is its whole own show,
like a whole other show.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
So let's not give this to 90 day fiance let's like
make a show okay you know yeah that's a great idea i'm all for it um so you were in new york city
new york city how was new york these this time of year what the fuck that accent is uh the weather
was trash it was cold and rainy but that's okay you. I feel like New York's weather is just a hit or miss.
And I landed in Nashville and it is 78 degrees and sunny, so I'll take it.
So it's nice in the Nash?
Super nice.
Spring has sprung, as some might say.
Very nice.
You get your bell?
Yeah.
Give me a ding.
Dude, I'm a big Austin guy these days.
Austin's nice. I like Austin. I could see you living these days. Austin's nice.
I like Austin.
I could see you living in Austin.
I could too.
You know, it's very similar to East Nashville.
It's a lot of hipsters.
There's a lot of really good food.
The music scene's great.
It's progressive in a state that has no state taxes.
Sign me up.
Like, I get why everyone's flocking to Austin these days.
Yeah, we went to Ryan Pinkston's wedding.
It was beautiful.
Very cute.
Matt Cuttschell, he was the officiant.
Oh.
He's engaged to Ariel Vandenberg, who's been on the show.
He did a great job, and that's really exciting
because I'm actually going to be officiating a wedding pretty soon.
Really?
I am. I got asked. I got called up to the bigs. Very excited about it.
Can you say who?
I don't think I can actually right now.
Huh. Very interesting. So I'm thinking maybe like Dini Babies or?
I don't know. I'm not going to name names.
Huh. Very interesting.
But I'll tell you off camera, but I have been tapped to wed some friends of mine.
And I've been learning what people are doing.
I'm comprising a speech.
Smart.
You've got to have a couple yucks.
You've got to have some pull on the heart strings.
You got to have some tear instigators, you know.
Absolutely, which I'm great at.
And you got to be quick.
Got to be quick.
You do.
And if you can do all those things, then it's successful, efficient.
And so I've been learning a lot.
I learned a lot from Matt Cutchell.
He was very good.
Like a duck to water,
that guy was in marrying people.
So I might just,
I asked him if I could just have his playbook
and he was like, yeah,
I'll just take pictures of all my notes
and you can have them.
So it was very inspiring.
I love Austin.
I'm so happy for our friends,
Justine and Ryan Pinkston.
And we had so much fun.
I rode a bull.
A real one?
No, not a real one.
A mechanical one.
A mechanical one.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
I stayed on pretty long.
I stayed on for as drunk as I was.
And for as, you know, I'm just not a rodeo guy.
I'm not Yellowstone Ryan Bingham over here.
Nah.
But you don't say nah like you don't know.
I mean, I could be great at it.
Anyways, I stayed on it for a while.
I have video.
Maybe we'll donate this video to the YFT Instagram.
I think we need that.
Yeah.
Did you do any two-stepping in Austin?
I didn't do any two-stepping.
I did some drinking. Oh, you really are missing out out i don't know how to two-step though you should really
learn i feel like you and sarah would kill it honestly and it's so fun yeah i don't know truly
it is very fun maybe maybe someday i'll do that but not not today no austin's great. We had some amazing food, as we always do.
And it was quick in and out.
The weather was nice.
Ding, ding.
What was your favorite food you had in Austin?
Well, there's a place outside of town called Salt Lick.
Okay.
Ooh, boy.
What kind of food?
Barbecue?
Barbecue, yes, of course.
I'll give you some faves.
Yeah, give us some faves.
That's what this show is, you know?
I know.
It's funny because my other show, Two Dudes in Kitchen,
we've been like, we need to make, like, go-to lists for different cities.
And so I guess that's kind of what we're doing right now.
We stayed at a hotel called The Line.
Ooh, it's beautiful.
Love it.
There's a restaurant in there called Arlo Grey,
which is, like, the head chef's is, like, from, like, you know,
Chopped or something, You know, like one of
those Food Network shows. That was pretty
good, but it wasn't the best.
Salt Lick, which is 22 miles
outside of town,
is ridiculously
fantastic. Highly
recommend. Also, Franklin
Barbecue in Austin?
Get you some. Also
check out Odd Duck,
Loro,
and I talked about it the other week,
the sushi place.
Uchi.
Uchi.
They got one in Austin, huh?
That's where Tyson Cole,
the head chef,
started it.
Oh, fuck.
If you want to have,
I'm going to get really close
to the microphone
and tell you guys this.
If you want to have a mouth orgas get really close to the microphone and tell you guys this if you want to
Have a mouth orgasm and by mouth orgasm. I mean not have someone orgasm in your mouth, but
When you eat it you feel like your mouth's having an orgasm go to
Uchi and just tell your guy your waiter just let the chef do whatever he wants to do with my mouth
Sounds weird, but I'm saying it out loud, but that's true.
You just got to say, just tell them to send us some shit,
and they'll bring out all the stuff that will change your life.
One thing you do need to get, they've got like a Wagyu beef sashimi.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, Brandy.
Don't walk.
Run to that place.
It is so good. So, yeah austin big austin guy and i used to

But I'm living a life.
I'm a firm believer in you have to just think it's going to happen.

So we're not going to really know what happens to Zach in The Bachelor world.
Good old Zachary. But it seems like from the teasers that I've seen that your girl Gabby doesn't want to meet Zach's parents.
Which sounds like Gabby wants to
get the fuck out of there.
I mean I kind of don't blame her.
I don't blame her.
But you know what's going to happen if so she self eliminates
it's a bummer because
then Katie's going to feel
like a consolation
prize. Yes.
And not chosen.
But I think that that is not chosen. But I think
that that is the play.
But did you see, there's
an Instagram that
Ariel
Ariel
Ariel
Yes.
Gabby and Katie
they all posted
the same picture
with the same emoji at the same time.
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
So that makes me think that they are all banded together against one common enemy.
Who is that enemy?
Zack Shacklecrosser.
Shellcrosser.
Shabbadabadoo.
I don't know his last name.
It's something like that.
Uh-huh.
Shall pass.
Shall not pass.
Shabbadabadingdong.
Seems like that's the enemy.
I could be wrong, though.
Mm-hmm. What do you think?
Uh-huh
I think there's a high chance
That that might happen
High probability
High probability
I think that I'm going to go on a limb here
And so this is coming up
Way after this has happened
So it's going to be a little bit Dated but I'm going on a limb And I so it's going to be a little bit dated
but I'm going on a limb and I think he's going to be with
Katie
for sure yeah I've been saying this
since day freaking one
you know
yeah
man
it's been a wild ride this one has
it has I gotta say though like
I think it was a pretty good season
you do? I do I though, like, I think it was a pretty good season.
You do?
I do.
That's fine.
I feel like you weren't into it.
I wasn't into it
because he was making
too many good decisions
and then once he made
a bad decision,
oh,
did I love it.
Well,
so the last three episodes
were good.
Loved it.
So good.
Yeah.
Television gold, baby.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Television gold.
Well, we'll see.
We shall see.
Anyways, is there anything else you want to talk about when it comes to?
You know, it's really not related, but it is Bachelor.
So I was just on TikTok.
I've been living on TikTok the past few days because of the Gwyneth trial, which we'll get to.
Oh, my God.
But I just came across, I don't follow him or anything,
but it just, in my algorithm, came up.
I think it was Justin that posted it.
Justin from, oh, God, I don't even know, Katie's season?
Yeah.
Does that sound right?
Sure.
He was on Paradise.
Okay, so it's this video of-
Is Justin the one that was like
oh is it with a good facial expression yes the eyebrow the eyebrow guy i guess this is maybe a
thing that they do a lot but this video it's it's him and like a ton of dudes from not really his
season is it i don't know it's him it's super tall nate with the earrings. It's Boring Bachelor that's screwed over Rachel and Gabby.
What's that guy's name?
Clayton?
This is terrible.
Clayton, thank you.
Clayton, it's, wow, this name quiz is not.
Rodney?
Rodney's on here.
And I think there's like two other dudes that I maybe don't recognize.
Okay, so they're all standing in a circle.
This is like a game they play.
Do you know about this?
Where they like say like a celebrity's name.
Like this one's Christian Bale.
And then they go around in a circle and play this game that's like about the –
Do you know what I'm talking about?
No.
Okay.
Let me see if you can hear it.
Christian Bale.
Christian got on a boat.
That's Christian's sail.
Christian drinks a lot of beer.
That's Christian ale.
Christian just went to the post office, that's Christian mail.
Christian's slow as shit, that's Christian snail.
Christian didn't pass math, that's Christian fail.
There was ice falling from the sky, that's Christian hail.
Christian is a fish, that's Christian scale
Christian's a bigger fish
that's Christian whale
so they do this
until somebody fucks up and honestly
I'm really impressed I don't think I could do this
at all Christian didn't marry
Claire so he didn't turn into
Christian Dale
honestly I don't know why this is so funny to me but they're Christian Dale.
Honestly, I don't know why this is so funny to me,
but they're killing, it's cracking me up.
I just had to share.
It's a good party trick, you know,
to be able to stand around and do that.
Christian wasn't Katniss Everdeen's love interest, so he wasn't Christian Gale.
Oh my God.
Yours are a little lengthy, but yeah, you're getting the trick.
Hey, I'm playing.
These guys are fucking professionals at this little game here.
Christian has four extra vertebrae, so he has a Christian tail.
There you go.
That's a good one.
Oh, God.
It really is funny, though.
They do it a lot, and it cracks me up.
I like that game.
I want to play that game.
Is it smart?
I mean, it's smart.
It's a great game.
I'm into it.
I'm there for it.
My sister would be good at a game like that.
Yeah.
I'll have to share that with the family at the next holiday.
Yeah.
Okay, you kind of teased it, but now I want to talk about it.
Oof.
Gwyneth Paltrow.
I've been glued to the TikTok screen following this whole situation.
She's not having a great couple months, I feel like,
because she got nailed for her diet, basically.
Yes.
Which, it's a lot of people being like,
she's got an eating disorder and yada, yada, yada.
And it's like, well, I don't know. I mean,
she, maybe, I don't know. It just seems like she's like super healthy, but yeah, she said like,
she doesn't, she like intermittent fast, it sounds like. And then she like her first meal is like,
um, bone broth, which a lot of people do that by the way. Like, uh, and maybe now I'm so entrenched
in Hollywood that that's normal to me, but I totally know a lot of people that do that.
And then they have like their one big meal afterwards.
But like she was getting a lot of hate for that.
Yeah, she was.
You know what?
Do what you want, lady.
You own goop.
Do you?
But so for everyone out there that doesn't know, because Sarah didn't know about this.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
And I was like, oh, this is old.
Like I've known about this for a long time.
So she's getting sued because
she was skiing one day and she
was flying down the hill, I guess,
and she ran into somebody.
Okay, you're telling the one side
of the story here.
This is what I heard.
She was careening down the Black Diamond
at 73 knots.
And with Christian Bale.
And she ran into a gentleman and then said, you know what, motherfucker?
What's her name again?
This story is not right.
What's her name again?
Gwyneth?
Yeah, she was like, you know, motherfucker, I'm Gwyneth Paltrow.
I own Goop.
Fuck off. And then got back on her skis
and then kept going
and this guy
is now unable
to drink wine
my brother
for some reason it was like now I can't
go to wine tasting or something
so he's suing her
he's suing her for this
is that the gist of what's going on? tasting or something. So he's suing her. He's suing her for this.
Is that the gist of what's going on?
Not really.
But yeah, but sort of.
So here's the tea, right?
Give me the tea. This is in 2016, and they're just now dealing with this.
So nuts.
So she was in Deer Valley skiing with her four young children
on a frickin' bunny slope.
Okay, no black diamond.
Okay. No black diamond.
Okay.
And then this,
uh, older gentleman,
um,
with,
uh,
what we've come to find out has many prior health issues.
Um,
and also,
uh,
maybe,
uh,
is this maybe speculation,
but I would dare say also some mental health issues as well.
Um,
a little bit of history of violent behavior,
um, which, you know, might be unrelated to the
case.
But in Gwen's defense, they're asking her a lot of shit that's also very unrelated to
the case.
So basically, he said, she said.
They're on this like bunny hill with their kids or whatever.
They've got some Deer Valley ski instructors with her.
And he says she hit him and she says he hit her, basically.
And so he's suing.
At first it was for three mil, which is fucking ridiculous.
And now it's down to 300,000, which I don't know where those numbers came from.
But basically, like, both stories are similar, but it's just, like, the argument of who was behind who and who ran into who.
Here's the thing.
People are giving her shit because they're saying she's not very likable
she sits up there and looks like unhappy and miserable well what the mother fuck do you think
is it's like sitting in a fucking courtroom and wasting hours upon hours of your time talking to
morons who can't even communicate properly these lawyers are so fucking stupid like listening to them talk is painful i'm like how do
you guys have this job like how did you guys get this trial you guys can barely form a complete
sentence like it's so embarrassing and i wouldn't be happy is like regardless of who hit who no one
is happy sitting in court it's not a fun thing am i wrong you're not wrong i also like thought that
we all kind of enter in a communal agreement when we go skiing that it's inherently dangerous
and it is it's like horseback riding it's the same shit like you don't sign up for it if you're
not willing to get hurt exactly like how many people blow like i know so many people have
blown their knees out on
yeah are you allowed to sue the mountain you can sue anybody for anything at any time in this
ridiculous country i so here's the thing here's the thing everyone's like of course team you know
terry this fucking guy that got hurt ever because everybody loves to hate the celebrity that's on
the stand yeah but i feel i feel for her in the sense of not that i'm a celebrity by any means but like i just understand being the target of someone
thinking they can get a lot of money out of you because of who you are and it's not a good feeling
and it's not fair and you know what if she did run into him like that's i feel bad and then she's a
motherfucking liar but like if she's right and it was the other way around and he's doing this to try to
like get some fucking,
you know,
lazy,
easy money.
Like I,
that's disgusting to me.
And I just don't think,
I don't know.
I just don't think we should be criticizing her for like being unhappy about
this whole situation because no one's happy about going to court.
Here's my question.
Would he have sued her if she wasn't Gwyneth Paltrow? Probably not. But why is that? Because they don't think they're going to get here's my question would he have sued her if she wasn't Gwyneth Paltrow probably
not but why is that because they don't think they're going to get any money exactly it's such
bullshit that she has to do this because she has been successful I know that's what I'm saying I
agree I think it's total this is the this is an unpopular opinion people are you know or are it's
very easy for someone to be like oh this rich bitch is just so fucking selfish she like hit somebody and ran away and like whatever and it's like all right but
you don't know like you really don't know the full story and like i think like you and i just
you know have like a front row seat to the other side of it right and like the celebrity world and
like how much of a target you are for no reason and shit and like it's just unfair so anyway all
that to say i'm kind of team gwyneth here this guy come on like you have all these health issues apparently he's like his vision's bad i'm like well it makes
sense he ran into someone if you don't have good vision why even on the freaking slopes to begin
with you're old and like i have vision problems probably shouldn't be skiing i don't know i just
i'm team gwyn here i'm with you i think it's bullshit It's like one of the things that I hate about our country
Is that like
You know it's like the whole thing of like
You went into McDonald's and you spilled hot coffee on your lap
And you sued them for millions of dollars
Because you're a fucking idiot
Like of course coffee's hot inherently
There's not grounds for you
There's coffee grounds
But there's not grounds for you to sue somebody grounds but there's not grounds for you to sue
somebody because you didn't fucking
put the lid on correctly
or whatever I don't like the
frivolous lawsuit thing and
like you know what happened is he got hit
and then
was like that fucking or whatever
maybe he and her and then he like
went on his day and then he was like getting hot
cocoa later and everyone was like asking to take pictures.
And he was like, that's the person that freaking I ran into today.
It's a celebrity.
Oh, now I can sue them.
It's ridiculous.
Well, the dumbass ski instructor apparently is the one that said her name to him.
Otherwise, he would have never known because when you're skiing, you've got the helmet and the goggles and like, you wouldn't recognize anybody.
And I guess like from what I've heard on,
on,
you know,
on the trial is that one of the ski instructors that was with her kids
skied over to the guy and was like,
you moron.
You just took down Gwyneth Paltrow.
Good job.
It's like,
dude,
what the fuck?
Why would you say that?
As the ski instructor saw the whole thing,
correct?
No, didn't see the actual hit.
Just saw that they were on the ground and then came over.
Yeah.
Oh.
No one saw the actual hit except for this other like frickin lunatic guy that says he's, you know, the guy's buddy that was on the mountain behind them and says he saw the whole thing.
But he's already changed his story a million times and it just doesn't come off as a reliable source
in my opinion is it is it a murder it's probably a murder that saw it probably probably yeah but
anyway all that to say it is it is entertaining as much as it's painful to watch because i do feel
for but um but i'm glued i'm glued to the tiktok screen well stay with it you know stay the course
stick with it we gotta learn more about it. I'm interested.
Speaking of the Murdaugh's,
did you hear that they reopened the case
of that Steven guy that was killed in the middle
of the road? I didn't.
Yeah, they reopened the case. And guess
what we found out recently,
America?
What did we find out? They performed a rape
kit on him after they found
him. If you thought someone was the victim of a hit and run, why would you perform a rape kit on him after they found. If you thought someone was the victim of a hit and run,
why would you perform a rape kit on them?
Makes no sense.
Actually, it makes perfect sense.
It means that they knew that there was some shady shit going on
and he was probably raped and murdered,
but then the Murdos came in there with their big oil money
and their stupid red hair, and they
buried it underneath
a mountain of lies.
And I can't wait for Buster to go down.
I don't know if any of that's true, but
I do know that it is true that they reopened
the case, and that it has been released
that they did rape kid on it, which is very, very
weird. But anyways, that
family's fucking crazy.
Damn. Damn.
Crazy.
Anyways,
do you have any favorite things
or what's happening?
I've really only been watching
this trial play out
on my TikTok screen.
I will say,
Yeah.
What?
How do you what?
I just want to know
if you have any thoughts
about the Scandaval.
Oh,
I don't really know
a whole lot about it
and I've never seen the show.
Yeah.
What's interesting.
Have you?
No, I've never seen the show.
But, like, my manager works with, like, everyone from Vanderpump.
So, like.
Okay.
He has been unable.
I can't get a hold of this guy because he's got a deal with the Rachel and the Tom drama.
And it's been ridiculous.
Uh-huh. I need my manager back.
I need to make some deals.
Yeah, you really do.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, I don't really know anything about it.
Well, I don't really either.
I've never watched that show.
Have you ever watched that show?
Never.
Man, okay.
Well, probably should cut that then yeah all right well what
do you got last week i had many a yf tier yeah slide into my dms to quickly correct me that
uh daisy jones and the six is not over there are two more episodes by the time this podcast comes
out they'll have come out um but that's 10 episodes for this season, which probably means it's the only season,
which makes a lot more sense, because it is such a big production.
So I have two more episodes to watch.
Thank you guys for letting me know. I am relieved.
It makes a lot more sense, I gotta say, because I...
You know, ending on season 8 would have
just been very odd. So thanks
guys for helping me out with that.
And I have those queued up to watch
tonight, which is exciting. I love that for you.
Yeah. Well, I'm gonna go ahead and I'm gonna queued up to watch tonight, which is exciting. I love that for you. Yeah.
Well, I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to give a ding to an old movie that I started watching again.
And you might not love what I'm about to say, and I'm sorry for that.
And I'm now realizing that I probably shouldn't be saying this to you.
But it doesn't matter because it's how I feel.
And you know what?
It's all about being honest on this podcast.
Is it?
Yeah, it is.
Or is it about elaborating stories to get laughs?
That's also true, which I do a lot.
I'm actually very good at that.
Yeah, huh?
You know, like before you go to bed,
we like to put on movies I can fall asleep to because it's like whatever.
You know, like I've seen this movie before
and I know it's entertaining.
I want to do yada, yada, yada.
And so I got back in to the hunger games and oh brother you know what i'm thinking here and i'm
sorry that your ex-brother-in-law uh is on the movie okay he's barely in let's be honest i mean
he's in it like especially at the end but like he's in it yeah i mean jennifer
lawrence like way overacts let's be honest like she's like going crazy and crying all the time
but it is so good i have thoroughly enjoyed watching and you know what i realized i never
finished it i never watched this last movie yeah i never watched this last movie i read the book
did you ever read the books yeah i loved the books i loved loved the books yeah holy shit loved yeah
uh anyway so i am like dick deep in the capital right now and we are going through it and they're
sending mutts and fucking tracker jackers and it's just so it's so good i'm almost 40 years old
and i love hunger games. What a time warp.
It is so great.
Very excited about that.
So I honestly have been watching
that.
Great.
I'm assuming you haven't started. There's a new
season of Love is Blind. No, I haven't
yet, but I want to.
There's some chatter on the
old TikTok about it.
Apparently it's a must watch.
Yeah.
All right.
We got to get in on that.
We got to get in on that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I have a not favorite thing, a least favorite thing.
Okay.
I watched a movie on the plane yesterday, which by all intents and purposes should be fantastic vis-a-vis the cast.
It's called Chaos Walking walking have you heard of it
no it's got tom holland and daisy ridley from like star wars it's also got mads mickelson who's like
i think he's swedish but he's in a lot of stuff and like the premise is so cool, and it just didn't do it for me. So, I'm not so sure you should get into Chaos Walking, but here's the tag.
Two unlikely companions embark on a perilous adventure through the badlands of an unexplored planet
as they try to escape a dangerous and disorienting reality where all thoughts are seen and heard by everyone.
Chaos walking.
So basically humans have gone and like gone to another planet and started living on it.
But on this planet, any thought that you have, you can hear it.
Like everyone can hear the thought.
You can also kind of see it.
Don't like that yeah and
there's no women on this planet all the women had been killed another like spaceship from earth has
come over with like more people and it crash lands and daisy ridley's the only survivor and then she's
the only woman on the planet and i don't know i just love all these actors, but I just didn't love the movie so much. So anyways, I'm sorry.
Yeah.
It can't all be great, I guess.
I guess not.
Yeah.
How have we talked about TikTok so much
and not talked about the TikTok CEO
having to go and do the spiel in Congress?
I know.
And Congress has no understanding of how TikTok works
and they're asking stupid questions a lot. I don't Congress has like no understanding of how TikTok works and like they're asking
like stupid questions a lot.
I don't think they have any understanding of how anything works.
I'm starting to wonder.
Here's what I think.
It is a China owned company, which isn't a great thing just for I think Americans just
in general, just because like China can, I guess, probably like use or utilize a lot
of that information.
And it's probably not great for us.
What are they using, though?
utilize a lot of that information and it's probably not great for us.
What are they using though? The fact that we
are obsessed with Pedro
Pascal and love
Get Ready With Me's and makeup
tutorials and wood chopping
tutorials and
I don't get it.
I think it behooves China probably to keep us
stupid and that app definitely
does that.
That's probably true.
But I think that the real reason why congress wants to get rid of it is because facebook and google are huge donors to politicians
campaigns and then they can use that power that money that they have from those campaign donations to be able to vote in legislation
that benefits their interests and if it's a chinese company they're not doing that and so
there's no money coming in so these guys are like and i'm sure like facebook and google's like get
rid of this shit you know we paid a lot of money to get you elected. Get this fucking thing out of here.
So that's my conspiracy theory on the whole thing.
If I'm being honest with you,
I built such a bigger following on Instagram.
If that was the only social media,
I would be happy with that, you know?
I would miss TikTok, I think.
Yeah, but selfishly.
It's where I get my news now.
Is it?
Yeah. It's the I get my news now. Is it? Yeah.
It's the new Twitter.
I know.
How else would I watch this Gwyneth trial?
I know.
Well, probably on... Like, where do you watch that?
I don't know.
See?
I need it.
On Instagram Reels in three weeks.
That's where you do it.
Yeah, I guess.
But that's like old news.
I don't know.
Yeah.
You're hooked, though.
Hooked. You know what I did? I deleted the app from my phone don't know. Yeah. You're hooked, though. Hooked.
You know what I did?
I deleted the app from my phone.
You did?
Yeah, and I'll have moments of weakness.
I've realized my screen time has gone crazy because of this app.
And it's not good.
No, it's not.
It's not healthy.
You know what a good little hack is?
I think I stole this from KFC Radio, the Barstool podcast.
But they were talking about turning your phone on Do Not Disturb.
If you turn your phone on Do Not Disturb, you never look at your phone.
Yeah.
Ever.
It's such a nice little hack.
I put mine on personal a lot.
What does that do?
I have no idea, but that's what it's on right now.
I mean, it turns the ringer off, turns the notifications off.
I know.
It's great.
Let's be fair.
I don't want to talk to anybody anyways.
Get away from me.
Yeah.
Everybody.
Same. Shoo, shoo, shoo. So if I can just Do Not Disturb it, it's great I don't really let's be fair I don't want to talk to anybody anyways get away from me everybody shoo shoo shoo
so if I can
just do not disturb it
it's great
shoo shoo shoo
another thing
on Instagram
did you know
that you can go
if you open up Instagram
and you press on
the button that says
Instagram at the top left
yeah
you can change over
to following
or favorites
and if you go to
if you press on the following one,
you will just see posts
of people you follow. Yes.
In chronological
order of
when it was posted.
Like what Instagram was.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I knew that.
Oh, I didn't know that. Anyways, that's a nice
little hack. Yeah.
I like that. I feel like I'm constantly being sold stuff.
Constant.
I buy so much shit on Instagram.
My thing is like, why does every social media company think I need razors all the time?
I feel like I'm being sold razors left, right, and center.
I'm not.
I'm not a very hairy man.
I only need one razor a month, maybe.
Wow. What are you getting sold a lot of
clothes mostly in shoes that's what i wish i was getting that yeah i just get razors
yeah tiktok tries to sell me um like pet products and honestly i'm a sucker for a lot of them yeah
i'm a sucker just saw a saw a TikTok ad for this leash
that you can walk three dogs at once
and because of the mechanism,
the leashes don't ever get tangled.
I bought it this morning.
Damn, that sounds like some witchcraft.
I know.
I got three dogs, though.
You know, I took them out of the vet last week.
It was an absolute nightmare.
Asked her if she was to be trained
and all of a sudden,
now we've got all three of them out
and she's not trained at all
and they're just going nuts.
Yeah.
Dang.
It sold me. She's not trained at all. And they're just going nuts. Yeah. Dang. It sold me.
That's great.
I did want to talk about my brother's company.
It's called.
Oh, yeah.
I saw your post.
Yeah, it's called Verse Journeys.
You can follow them on Instagram.
V-E-R-S-E.
And then Journeys.
J-O-U-R-N-E-Y-S.
So like what he specializes in is trips to South Africa.
And it's like the trip that Sarah
and I went on, I think last October. And it was like a trip of a lifetime. And we went to Cape
Town and stayed in Camps Bay and had an amazing time there. And we hiked up Lion's Head and Table
Rock. Is that what it is? Table Mountain. Table Mountain. That was beautiful. Then we went to
Franschuk and Parle and stayed in wine country. And that was amazing. beautiful then we went to franschuk and parl and satan wine country
and that was amazing and then we went and lived in the bush and we got to go on these game drives
and see lions and elephants and giraffes and all this amazing stuff it was absolutely amazing but
they have now teamed up with a game drive and veterinarians and obviously like it's a big thing
like there's poachers that are coming there and they're just killing black rhinos for their fucking horn which is the dumbest thing in the world like china stop
doing that like it you know you know a rhino horn is just hair but they think it gives them fucking
big dicks and shit but that's if i'm being honest that's that's the biggest little dick energy ever
is killing a fucking beautiful majestic animal because your dick doesn't work.
I know.
Not just China.
I think it's all like Asia.
It's not good over there.
Anyways, they go in there and all these vets are basically trying to save all these rhinos and all this stuff.
And you can go work with them, with the vets, and help like bring back the black rhino on this trip.
And so I think it's such a cool thing.
Like, if I, I remember when we went last October,
it was a thing that they were talking about.
And I was like, I so badly want to do that.
That sounds so cool.
Go work with these, you know, these wild, majestic animals
and help them and feel like you're doing a good thing.
So anyways, if you want to do that,
my brother's company will hook it up and do an amazing job and i also just think it's like a good cause thing should we all go i'll
go if you guys go you want to yeah i love rhinos it might be a fun thing to see if we can get like
a bunch of yf tears to go oh i love that idea do like a yf tear trip, that'd be awesome. Okay. I'll pitch that around.
See what's going on.
Hook it up, dog.
Okay, we got some fuck you very muches.

Daisy Jones and the Six
is ten episodes,
not eight, so I hope
you at least get to watch the finale second
it's based off a book so tell
the people we love books

Wells loves audio books
but it was the best audio book
I've ever heard did I say
it and Wells cut it because that probably
is probable maybe I don't know
uh-huh.
I did say it was from a book.
One quick Google and you would have told us all of this.
But you know, The Martian was a book first.
We also talked about that and I did not cut it. We did.
Did you cut it?
I don't think so.
Lastly, saying snooze to Ted Lasso, I just can't.

When you tell us about a new show, then proceed to explain every single thing that happens in the first episode.
That's not a synopsis.
That's a spoiler.

I am reading a new book.
Oh, do tell.
About reading.
I mean, I'm listening to a new book.
Right.
It's called Abandoned by Blake Crouch.
Yeah.
He's got a new one?
No, I think this is old.
Oh.
But I'm pretty much into it.
Here's a synopsis of the summary.
A century-old mystery and a desperate battle to survive
unfold in this stand-alone thriller
from New York Times best-selling author of Dark Matter and Recursion.
On Christmas Day in 1893,
every man,
woman, and child in a remote mining town disappeared. Belongings forsaken, meals left to freeze in vacant cabins, and not a single bone was found. Now, journalist Abigail Foster and her
historian father have set out to explore the long-abandoned town
and learn what happened.
Abandoned by Blake Crouch.
Oh, it is new.
It came out in 2023.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, so there you go.
Okay, great.
I'll pick that right up.
Yeah, do that.
I wish they would hurry it up with the Dark Matter show or movie
or whatever's happening.
I know.
I've been waiting a long time.
Me too.
I did love Dark Matter. Oh, it's my favorite book a long time. Me too. I did love Dark Matter.
Oh, that's my favorite book of all time.
Is it?
Yeah.
Of all time.
I love it.
That's crazy.
There's a guy that sounds exactly like Willie Nelson,
but he'll sing other songs
as if Willie Nelson was singing them,
and he did I Want It That Way.
Oh.
Is that Backstreet Boys?
Yep.
And it is so freaking good and I thought
maybe we'd play that and we could go out on that.
That sounds great. It's just
ridiculously good and like
kind of wish the song was like that.
Huh?
Did you hear that?
You are my fire
The one who desires Garcin's doubled over. You are my fire.
The one that desires.
Garces doubled over.
Believe me when I say
that I
want it that way.
Oh, tell me why.
