Capshka? Capka? Capshka? I don't know how you say it. Anyways, I couldn't do it. It was way too freaking distorted, you know? Maybe I am a robot. I don't know. Ooh, just got back from a golf trip. Just once I'd like to go on a golf trip

where I don't push my body to the absolute limit and just have a nice relaxing weekend with my buds without putting my liver into psoriasis, cirrhosis, psoriasis, putting my skin into psoriasis and my liver into cirrhosis. Did someone crash a golf cart? Yeah, they did. Was it me? No, it wasn't. But I tell you what, man, we pushed hard. We pushed our bodies to the absolute limit. We said, hey, body, what can you take? You can take this. All right, we're going to ratchet it back one level. Okay. Was the trip sponsored by schedule 35? Yeah, it was. Did we play glow ball golf at night? Yeah, we did.

Was that one of the most amazing light shows I've ever seen? Absolutely. Was I bumping yacht rock nonstop on the golf course? Yeah, ya boy was. Do you understand anything that I'm talking about right now? No, you do not not YFTers. Just know that the fact that I'm here right now, alive, able to talk to you, is an absolute miracle.

You know? Anyhoot, I've missed you guys. We'll call Brad in a bit, but we did a live show in Nashville. Puppy was sold out. We added a bunch more tickets to it. We're just like letting more people in, whatever. And now in absolute time, I got a wasty face with some YFTers.

It was amazing. I think it's probably time to call the brand and get this bitch going. Let's call her up right now it is time the time is now hi what are you doing right now i'm i'm literally canceling every fucking subscription on my iphone oh that's a good thing to do when we start a podcast? Well, I just got a fucking email receipt from Apple saying I spent some absurd amount last month on subscriptions, like $65. It's like, what the fuck?

$65? That doesn't seem like that much. Really? Yeah. A month for phone apps? I think that's absurd. What apps are you running? Lightroom, Canva, InShot Video Editor Pro, like all this bullshit and i'm just gonna cancel them and then if i need it again i'll just renew it but like i don't need to be

paying every month when i don't use it every month is lightroom not free um there's a version of it that's free but i guess like the pro version with the storage and shit and there once upon a time i used lightroom like almost every day yeah Yeah. You got good at it or what? Yeah. Like I love editing photos. I took photography for a year in college, the one year I went to college. And for a minute there, everything I posted on Instagram, I would put through Lightroom first, you know, because I was just like an artsy little influencer. And now I don't give a fuck.

And now, you know, they say that the more like raw images do better like like overly edited photos don't do well on instagram anymore like the people want to see in the moment unfiltered photos so i stopped using lightroom so much and no i'm just not gonna pay for it don't do it until i need it you know if i need it for a month like i'll buy it and then i'll cancel it again okay so what else you have canva which i use like sometimes like i'll go through what does canva do canva i can make it like i make like like uh graphics for like my dj dates to post or sometimes like flyers with it for events if they make shitty ones and i want one that's better got it it's like i'll like use canva you know for like a month or two and then i'll drop off and not touch it for

three months. And it's just silly to pay every month for something you don't use every month. Well, good luck with figuring that out, I guess. Yeah. I don't know. Those are my thoughts, you know. I'm just not even going to look at whatever those subscriptions are. I don't need that in my life.

Oh, so you're just going to pay for shit and like not care? Cool. I just don't like to look at any finances, you know. I pay someone to do that for me. Right, right. Well, are they checking on your subscription? I don't think so, no. They only think of two flying fucks.

I'm one of many. Oh, fascinating. But here we are. So how you doing? I mean, we were just in the Nash, vague. We were? Where are you now, New York? New York City.

Oh, that got delivered to Burbank. Fuck. What did? Why did I send that to Burbank? I'm an idiot. Are you? Sorry. What are you talking about? This fucking package I was tracking, it's in Burbank, and I don't know why I did that. Alright. Let's get you to focus

on this for just like an hour. Yeah, sorry. I haven't opened my emails in like a week, so they're just there. Perfect time to do it. They're just, when I get on the computer, they just pop up. Got it, got it, got it. It's out of my control, really. You're in New York. I'm in New York. Bro Wells

is in New York. Yeah. I'm like going full 80s, dude. I see this. Is that a polo shirt? I don't know what it dude. I see this. Is that a polo shirt? I don't know what it is. I got it for doing traders, and I really like it, actually. But it's very 80s. But 80s is back, bro.

It is. You know what I've been noticing a lot from the kids that are doing that's from the 80s is the dangly earring for guys. I hate those. That used to be such a big thing in the 80s. Boy George had it. Rob Lowe had it. I think all the Brat Pack had it. You know? Definitely. Should I get it? No.

You know what I've been thinking about? I've been thinking about getting a new ring for my hand. Oh. What kind of ring? I've been seeing some of my friends, they have gold circular stamped rings. I kind of ring? Well, I've been seeing some of my friends. They have like, they're like gold circular stamped rings, you know? Okay. And I kind of want that.

But here's the thing. I have like a silver wedding ring. I have a silver watch. So can I do silver on one hand and gold on the other? You could. Are there rules? I'm just not sure like you're a big jewelry guy. I know, but I want to be.

Why can't I be? I think so. Okay. I think I could be if I put my mind to it. I'm just trying to picture you with a gold chain around your back. I know. It's not me. I know.

But I want to be different. I don't have any tattoos. You could do that. You could start there. That's what I don't want. Because there's nothing sadder than a 40-year-old man getting tattoos for the first time. I mean, that is true. That's just screaming midlife crisis.

Yeah, and I don't feel like I'm there yet. Right. But speaking of midlife crises, I just went and had, we did the 9th annual Who Cup in Birmingham, Alabama, which is like all my college buddies. We all get together and um we play golf every year and i know the golf content is not really what people are coming here for right i was telling the yft years before i called you just once would i like for us to do you know a golf trip where i don't push my body to the absolute limit you know like i Like I'll say to my liver, hey, what can you take? And it'll be like, we can take this.

And I'll be like, all right, I'm going to pull it back one for just for you, you know? Yep. Did we crash a car? Yeah, we did. You know? Sorry about that, you know? Wow. It just happens.

It wasn't me. Okay. I didn't do it. Interesting. My team lost. Ben Higgins' team won, which is frustrating. But, you know, it was great. We had an amazing time.

One of my favorite things, by the way, is the golf course we played. Purcell Farms, Farm Links in Birmingham, Alabama. Right outside of Birmingham, Alabama. Absolutely beautiful. So check it out if you're there. Okay. The weekend was sponsored by Schedule 35. Really?

Yeah. I brought some party favors. So is that what caused the golf cart accident? I don't know. I don't know what happened, all right? Did I do the golf cart accident? No. Was I even awake for it?

I was not. Wow. Those are the truths. Okay. Tell you what was more fun, Brandi. Tell me. The live show was more fun, Brandi. Tell me. The live show at the One Hotel in Nashville. You're telling me.

What a great show. I tried to tell you that it would be fun. I tried. For years, I've said, It would be so fun to do a live show. And it took so long to get you to commit. And then aren't you so glad we did? I am.

By the way, it was amazing, though. We had a bunch of people from out of the country fly to Nashville for this show. They got Lady Kitty, too. They were having a blast. Dude, I ended up running it. So I partied with like a lot of YFTers that night. So we were at the one hotel at the after show. There were some Torontians that got fucking lit up and no

judgment here that for them no judgment here um but yeah it was so i was there then i was like i'm gonna go to another bar and then we went to tin roof and it was dead by the way because it was a win what was it wednesday yeah wednesday. So then we went to Red Door, my old stomping grounds, and I ran into more freaking YFTers that were there. Wow. And we just got lit up. You got Litty Kitty? I got Litty Kitty in the city, in Nash City.

Yeah. Down at the college bar. It was great. I just wish we had more time. So, you know, if we do another show, where do we do it? Toronto, I feel like. Toronto could be a hot spot for us. I feel like Toronto. Some people drove in from Louisville. Some people

drove in from Atlanta. Also, what are you guys thinking? I know. Do you think that it was a good enough show to warrant any of that? I think they do. Although I have to say it seems like the overall consensus

was that it is time to retire Dirty Grandpa. I don't think anyone likes it. No. It didn't hit. It hit. It didn't. Such a great story though. Are we going to release that episode or not? Yeah, at some point. Yeah.

We're going to put the whole video up on the YouTube. I'm going to need to edit a lot of that. Yeah. We're going to put the whole video up on the YouTube. I'm going to need to edit a lot of that. Yeah. Although, all the politically incorrect things that you talked about during soundcheck, I don't think you actually said any of them. I know. I know. But I am going to have to go through that with a fine-tooth comb because I feel like I really just let myself go there.

But it was fun. And for all the YF2s that didn't get to go, we're very sorry. And hopefully there. But it was fun. And for all the YFTers that didn't get to go, we're very sorry. And hopefully we'll do it again soon. Yeah. But we are going to eventually, I don't know when, but it will, at some point, it will go up on the YouTube channel for you guys. And I definitely think we'll be doing more. So that's exciting. Yeah.

Let's just go through where we should do it. We should probably do another one in Nashville. For sure. Because I think there were a lot of people in Nashville that were like, we couldn't get tickets. Sorry about that.

The hotel actually wants to do two next year with us. Yeah, I think that's fair. And then they actually, the one hotel has a Toronto location. Perfect. So that works out for us.

Where are all the, I love the one hotel. Where are all the locations? They're opening one in Austin next year. Perfect. They have a West Hollywood location if we want to do LA. Huh.

Okay. I know. Miami, but I'm not sure that's our demo. No, I don't know. I mean, maybe. They actually just opened one in Kauai. You think we could talk them into sending us there? Yeah.

Let's hit up our boy Brandon over at the One Hotels and say, hey, listen, we want to go on a one hotel tour. That's right. All right. There's only one hotel for us

and it's the One Hotel. And I would like to stay four days at the Kauai location, please. Yeah. By the way, they gave me a hotel room. So nice.

Yeah. I love the rooms. I was really impressed with everything. So anyways, that was a lot of rooms. I was really impressed with everything. So anyways, that was a lot of fun. I guess keep your eyes peeled and your ears to the podcast world because I think at some point we are going to release that episode, which I think it was a very funny episode.

Yeah, it was good. It was good. People came up to me afterwards and they said it was the best. Then they were like, we go to a lot of these. And they said it was the best live podcast they've ever been to. Wow. I sound like Donald Trump when I say that. I mean, they said. And they said it was the best live podcast they've ever been to. Wow. I sound like Donald Trump when I say that. I mean, they said that.

They said it was the best one. Wow. Okay. Well. All right. You want to start the show? Yeah, we probably should. Me or you?

I think you. Bros and hoes, you're listening to Your Favorite Thing Podcast with... Wells and Brandy. All right, you guys. As we transition into fall and our schedules get even busier there's back to school activities for kids tighter work deadlines not to mention we are approaching holiday season and i don't know about you guys but i get so overwhelmed with like shopping for gifts and decorating the house that sometimes i forget to take care of myself and during this

busy season one simple but effective thing you can do for yourself is to start taking Nutrafol. I've been talking about Nutrafol for such a long time. I'm such a big believer in the product.

Promo code YFT. Dude, can I just get a ding ding for Good Wipes? Because they are literally my favorite thing, especially when I'm traveling, Brandi. I know, same. I keep them in my carry-on bag for every trip. And I also have a pack of good wipes in every bathroom in my house because, you know, it's not just for me. It's for anybody that comes over and visits. I want you

guys to be able to have the cleanest bum. I noticed that when I was at your house. I know. I got them everywhere. If you're just using toilet paper, you're walking around with a dirty booty, dude. I'm just telling you what's what. That's why you need to get some good wipes, man. Toilet paper just smears things around. Does it even actually clean anything? I don't think so. I mean, would you wash your hands without water?

Probably not. They're super soft. They feel so much better than other wipes. They've got a variety of scents that everyone will love. Sarah likes the rose water. I like the cedar and brand new botanical bliss. There's also lavender and shea cocoa. Seriously, if you're not wiping your bum with good wipes, you're doing it wrong.

Also, I would just like to point out that a lot of wipes say they're flushable and they're really not really supposed to be. But good wipes are they're made with plant-based fiber so they break down super easily so you don't have to worry about flushing down the toilet by the way if you're a bachelor and or a baseball fan good wipes is currently running a really fun sweepstakes they're giving away a trip to a game of the world series with bachelor stars greg grippo and andrew spencer so now's the perfect time to give Good Wipes a try because each pack that's purchased in-store is an entry to the sweepstakes.

To learn how to enter, you just go to goodwipes.com slash sweepstakes, or if you just want to try Good Wipes, you can head to Walmart, Target, Kroger, or your local grocery store to pick up a pack today. Don't walk around with a dirty booty, dude. It is gross. It is.

Did you watch The Golden Bachelorette? You know, I didn't. Are we doing that? I don't know. They're sending me screeners. I'm just not sure if I can handle it. It's a lot of television. It is.

Listen, I think I'll catch up at some point, and then I'll give you guys my thoughts, but I think I'm bacheloretted out right now. I television. It is. Listen, I think I'll catch up at some point, and then I'll give you guys my thoughts. But I think I'm bachelorette-ed out right now. I know. Me too. Even though I love Joan. I do too. Maybe I'll insert right here Sarah talking about it, because she watched the first episode.

Okay. That would be good. And she likes the guys. Oh. Even though I saw there were a couple of guys that had been, like, had restraining orders out against them. How did they make it on the show? I don't know. And, like, the same thing with, like, Devin.

Didn't Devin have some legal issues or something going on? I don't know, but those should be things that, like, they, during casting, like, they shouldn't let people like that on the show. That's not part of the lead. I agree. When I went through casting, and surely ABC knows better than this, but when I went through it, they had a private eye go through everything. And I remember I had something that I had to get resolved. It was like a parking ticket or something. And I'm like, what are we talking about here, guys? And that's how in-depth they were. And now people are sliding through with having restraining orders against them?

Yeah. That seems crazy. That seems a little nuts. And I don't know if any of that's true, you know. Sure. But I just saw that on the social medias, and I thought, well, that must be true. Okay.

Have you been seeing all this stuff about P. Diddy? Yeah. People are all scrubbing their Twitter or their ex. I saw that. what's the point of that exactly i don't know the internet's forever twitter that i don't know he's like the new epstein man i know anyways thank god i've never been in one of his parties i know i told you he lived next door to us i know every time i see an interview now of him i'm like you do seem unhinged Yeah

I don't know if I like you at all And then all this other stuff that's coming out about him And maybe being the one who killed Tupac What? I haven't seen that And Biggie And then Eminem put out a song Where he talks about that

Anyhoot, you got some fave things? I don't think I do, bro. It's really, I mean, what the fuck? I've been all over the place this week. Where you been? What's the reasoning for this? Okay, well, last Monday you were here, we recorded an episode.

Yeah. That was Monday, right? Yeah. Yes. You came over, we recorded last week's episode. Then Tuesday I had to go downtown for Lainey's thing. And then Wednesday we did our live show. I mean, no, to go downtown for Lainey's thing. And then Wednesday, we did our live show. I mean, no, but I had other things to do. I'm not watching TV during

daylight hours, you know. Lainey's bar opening Tuesday night. Wednesday night, YFT show. Thursday morning, fly to LA. Thursday night, American Wild Horse campaign fundraiser. Friday morning, fly to Las Vegas. Friday day, play Las Vegas. Stayed in Vegas Friday night. Got a little litty kitty. Saturday, oh,

you know what I did do in Vegas? This is a good thing to talk about. Saturday, I went to Meow Wolf in Las Vegas. Have you ever been to one of those? No. Do you know what that is? Meow Wolf? Meow Wolf. No.

Oh, give it a googs. So the one in Las Vegas is in an area like a little ways off the strip called Area 15, 51. What do they call the alien thing? 51. That one. They've created this thing, this area they call Area 51. And it's a bunch of like theme parks sort of for adults, but not a theme park. It's like all kinds of like VR interactions and like games you can play in VR. Black light inside. And it's kind of hard to explain, but can you just Google and see what it says about Area 51 maybe? You've got a computer in front of you too.

Yeah, but I'm talking and you're sitting. So you can look that up real quick. Anyway, Meow Wolf. There's one in Denver. And I've always wanted to go to the one in Denver. I've never been. But then I was told that the Las Vegas one is even better so I was like well great I'll just wait and go in Las Vegas basically it's like a huge warehouse I actually think it used to be an

old Ikea so an old Ikea building they turn into like a walkthrough art installation you go through like hidden passageways and there's like hidden doors and you crawl through spaces and you go from like one air space and like one room to the next and they're all different and it's all art i mean i think if you were on drugs it would be like really fucking cool but i was not and it was still really cool commute via the quantum department of transportation to the convergence a bustling city created by a rare cosmic event that joined four alien worlds. When you're not trading memories as a form of currency, you and your fellow interdimensional travelers can venture out into four floors of surreality

featuring Meow Wolf's most epic immersive art to date. If you ever wanted to wax heroic at the crossroads of real life sci-fi newtopia, this is the space time for you. Meow Wolf. That sounds like a place that you do drugs at. Yeah, I think like, especially considering it's in Vegas, like most people are probably on drugs, which I would imagine would be very fucking cool. You know, like I don't do drugs personally, but if I did or I was going to, I think I would do it before going there because that would be super cool.

Spot, spot, spot, spot, spot. But I still enjoyed it. So, you know, it was still really neat. It sounds like a place that you go take Schedule 35 at. Exactly. Exactly. You know, so that was cool. And then some friends i was with

did this vr zombie apocalypse game where like you put a headset on and you go in and you kill zombies and shit no cool um i chose not to do that but it looks cool so yeah they just have like a bunch of stuff like that they were like there was like a kid zone and kids had the vr on and they were doing like dodgeball and shit i don't know. It's just a cool spot. Alright. So if you're in Vegas and you need something to do for half the day, you can go to Area 51 and pay

90 bucks to be able to spend four hours in there and do the things or whatever it is. So that's kind of cool. Meow Wolf. So I did that Saturday. And then Saturday night I flew home and then Sunday I took a rest day and here we are it's monday morning rest day is the perfect day to look to watch some stuff there's just like nothing good on i watched the most i've been keeping up with tell me lies

because i fucking love that show okay brie is just my favorite character and you know what i've loved her since season one she kind of like flew under the radar in season one and wasn't like a big as big of a character and now she's like really having her moment because spoiler alert she's having an affair with the hot teacher which get it girl and she's just my fave so i am keeping up with that and then i just i really tried to continue watching lady in the lake and i just don't like it yeah i just don't all right well then that's that's disappointing drop off yeah there's nothing worse than starting a show and just not finishing it because it's not good yeah it's just a terrible feeling but yeah that's nothing worse than starting a show and just not finishing it

because it's not good yeah it's just a terrible feeling but yeah that's like what else is out there really i got some stuff okay tell me have you seen chimp crazy no but it does not sound good it's amazing okay it's made by the same guy who did tiger king i never saw tiger king what that was like a that was like a moment in time it was like in the beginning of freaking the pandemic everyone was obsessed the tiger king yeah i never watched i'll never financially recover from this the director is from tiger king is the one who does chimp Crazy. It's on HBO. It is phenomenal and crazy and amazing. And you have to watch it. The Y of tears.

Please go watch Chimp Crazy on Max. And tell us what it's about. Former nurse turned exotic animal broker, Tanya Haddix, spend her days caring for animals in captivity. However, her love for one chimpanzee in particular spins into a wild cat and mouse game with authorities and an animal rights group. HBO original Chimp Crazy on Max.

Okay, this woman, Tanya Haddix, she looks exactly like you think a person who would be into exotic animals would look like. She thinks she says she looks like Dolly Parton, but she does not. She's just like bad spray tan, way too big of eyelashes, huge blonde wig, huge lips, all right? The next door lady from something about mary oh and it's all about these crazy chimpanzee people right effectively what happens is is that there are a lot of people especially like in the 70s and 80s that were adopting chimpanzees and chimpanzees as babies to like five years old are super sweet totally imprints upon their families and like the the

mother and the father that adopts them um and then after that they get incredibly dangerous they go through all these different stories of these chimpanzees who end up getting out of their cages and they just rip off people's faces like it's it's like a real thing um and so then after five they kind of have to be kept in a cage and then they become like really really really aggressive so this lady falls in love with this one chimpanzee named tonka tonka was actually like a famous chimpanzee who's in a bunch of movies so much so that he was in one with alan cummings the guy who did freaking traitors. So then Alan Cummings is in this story. PETA comes in and is like,

you guys, these chimps, you can't have them here. Like, this is such, like, not good living spaces for these chimps. And it's just exactly like Tiger King, where if stories come in, they're like, you can't do this. This is really, really bad. And of course, everyone that's like in the chimp world

is like, the PETA, PETA's fucking bullshit. I bullshit i don't know then you like look at these things and you're like yeah you should send these to like these poor animals that they were just in jail effectively pita like wins the lawsuit and says that they've got to take all these freaking chimps away and they've got to send them to this um this wildlife preserve where they can all just like run around actually preserve looks pretty dope it It's wide open spaces and everything and they get to interact with one another. So I'm on Peeta's side with this for sure. And they go

and they get all the chimps out except one's missing. Guess which one it is. Tonka. Yep. So then Peeta's like, she stole this chimpanzee. And she's like, I didn't steal the chimpanzee. He she's like, I didn't steal the chimpanzee. He died of heart arrhythmia.

We cremated his ashes. Here are the ashes. And Peeta's like, bullshit. She stole this freaking chimpanzee. She's like, where would I steal it? Anyways, guess what? That bitch stole that fucking monkey, dude. Of course she did.

And chimpanzees are... We have 98.4 the same DNA as chimpanzees. And they totally understand everything that you're saying. You're not... You're like dogs and know what we're saying. The chimpanzees are like, hey, grab that bottle and you know you're like dogs didn't know what we're saying the chimpanzees you're like hey grab that bottle and bring it over to me and he's like okay you know it's like oh shit that's totally no what's crazy though is that there's a case study for this there's like a lot of different people who are into

this like monkey culture and it's all these kind of alone women who like just want to be like perpetual mothers all the time and and like their kids either gotten older or like gone off or like they never had kids and so it's all this kind of like same archetype of these people who do this and then they end up freaking getting out of their cage and they rip off faces they rip off people's faces dude there was one monkey that she like the monkey killed one of the friends or have someone's face so they call the cops and the cop drives up and the monkey grabs

the door handle and rips the fucking door off the hinges dude they're so strong don't fuck with chimpanzees my god I'm not trying to I'm just saying don't do it I know you want to don't do it I do not okay I to, don't do it. I do not. Okay.

And I loved WandaVision. I thought it was really,

really well done. I thought it was cool. The concept was really cool. She kind of put herself in like all these like different sitcoms of like different eras and stuff. If you haven't seen WandaVision, you might want to go watch WandaVision before you get into Agatha all along because it's obviously like the next chapter in this whole thing. Obviously on Disney Plus because it's part of the Marvelverse. Agatha all along, a spellbound Agatha Harkness, reigns freedom thanks to a teen's help. thanks to a teen's help intrigued by his plea she embarks on the witch's road trials to reclaim her powers and discover the teen's motivations agatha all along so it's katherine hawn so she was obviously agatha in wandavision if you watch that and katherine hawn just freaking amazing but this cath this cast is so good so it's katherine hahn and then it's uh

shashir zamata who i believe she was on snl and then aubrey plaza who we all know and love and then patty lapone who's like obviously like an icon and then deborah joe rupp who is absolutely iconic from that 70s show she's a mom in that 70s show. And then a lot of the characters from previous show, from WandaVision. So if you're into witchy stuff, like my wife is, you want to watch this one because this is all about Catherine Han, who is a witch starting a coven to regain her power and stuff. And I'm only a couple episodes in. I'll give you this warning. Similar to WandaVision, I don't know if you watch WandaVision and you were like, this is kind of tough because they're pretending to be a part of

like, I don't know if you didn't see it, but there was one episode where they were pretending to be like, I love Lucy. They did a Modern Family episode where they were in different eras of television. And it starts out with Catherine Han basically being in a true crime buddy cop drama. As you watch it, you're like, this is weird. This is bad acting or whatever. And then you realize that she has created this world and she has to come out of it.

And then once she comes out of it, then it's freaking awesome. So you have to kind of stick with the first episode, like the first half of it. And then you're into like Witch's Coven stuff it's very fun okay yeah cute i'm excited about that one i started watching monsters the lyle and eric menendez story oh yeah have you seen that no i watched the preview last night though it's on netflix it's a ryan murphy show so i'll tell you what this guy likes to fucking do he likes to take really creepy real life stuff and then kind of sexualize these people

which i'm not so down with he did dommer that way kind of i feel like yeah you know he's a guy who did glee american horror story like he's done some amazing stuff don't get me wrong and this is starting out to be really amazing but it's really really dark do you remember the menendez stuff not really i mean i guess we were too young it was in the late 70s but i remember the menendez brothers like knowing about them yeah they're the two brothers who killed their parents like Ugh. Like, brutally. Yikes. It's all the story of Lyle

and Eric Menendez murdering their parents. The scene where they kill the parents is really, really gruesome. Javier Bardem plays the father and then Chloe Sauvigny. Sauvigny. Oh, yeah.

You know her? Sauvigny. She plays the mother. Okay. Yeah, she's great the two guys that are playing the Menendez brothers

Cooper Coke and Nicholas Alexander Chavez are so good in this incredibly good at this but I tell you what man I'm gonna give it a ding because it is well done and it is creepy

and who knows how much it really is real because it kind of it showcases kind of how stupid they are which i'm sure they were and like how blatantly overconfident that they were about this like they didn't think they were ever gonna get in trouble for this you know right they like blame the mob and stuff but they were a really rich family and living in beverly hills and so like

you're like maybe you know and like the murder was so brutal that you're like, yeah, this kind of seems like a hit. They kind of make a joke of how stupid these two dipshits were. I don't know if that's true or that's a choice. It's dark, though. I will say it's dark. Yeah.

I watch it and I was like, oh, man, I don't feel so good about this. Yeah. The way that they decide to kill their parents is they watch a movie that where these kids kill their parents, you know? Yeah. They're like, Jesus, what's wrong with you guys?

Those are the three shows that I've been watching that I really like a lot. Okay. Yeah. I'm not sure any of those three are really up my alley. Well, I don't know what to tell you. Then you should go watch the things that you want to watch. The problem is nothing on right now I really want to watch. There's a new Circle out.

You never watched The Circle, did you? I've never seen The Circle. Sarah's obsessed with it. Really? Yeah, she's obsessed. I should give that a go. I know. You might like The Circle.

I want to start watching Chaos. Have you seen that one? Mm-mm. You know, it's kind of about the Greek gods in like a present day setting. It's Jeff Goldblum who's like the lead of it it's on netflix a modern day contemporary retelling of greek mythology sarah started watching that and she likes it a lot too so i might start that soon oh my god this is so funny this chinese zoo admitted they use painted dogs for their panda exhibit have you seen this no look at that little smoosh shirt that looks like a dog

not a panda that's a chow that they've spray painted to look like a panda where is this china do they think people are stupid look at that how do they think they would get away with this i mean yeah there was this waterfall in japan did you hear about the waterfall in Japan? No. That like, it's like this really tall waterfall. This tourist attraction. And someone hiked up to it and took a picture. Oh, I do know about this.

And they found a pipe that was doing it so they would have the water flowing all the time. Yep. Oh my god. China. So full of shit over there. I thought you said that was Japan. I think it was China, though.

Oh. Let me look it up. Hiker finds pipe feeding China's tallest waterfall. Oh, you full of shit, China. Do better. You want to do some voicemails? Love to. Hi, Wells and Brandy.

This is Gina from Ohio. Long-time listener and long-time fan. I'm also here with my nine-year-old daughter, Eliza. You may think it's a parenting win, parenting fail. I don't know. You decide. Say hello, Eliza. Hi, Eliza.

Okay. Anyways, we have a favorite thing for you. There's this new movie on Netflix called Unfrosted, and it is a star-studded cast. It has Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Gaffigan, Amy Schumer, Melissa McCarthy. Oh, yeah, this is about Pop-Tarts. Hugh Grant's in it. The cast of Saturday Night Live is in it. It's just loaded.

Anyways, it's about the serial company of kellogg and post battling back and forth about who created pop tarts it's hilarious it's family friendly eliza do you have anything to say about it it was a great movie i really liked it oh and so we really suggest that you check it out um it made us laugh so hard it was nostalgic it was hilarious and um yeah, check it out. It's on Netflix. And just to let you know, I am a big fan of Bachelor in Paradise, and you're always the best person on Bachelor in Paradise. I agree. My daughter and I watch it every season. So anyways, we love you, and we hope to hear this on the air one day.

Anyway, again, it's called Unfrosted on Netflix. Hilarious. Check it out. Bye. Bye. I can't believe the nine-year-old is watching Bachelor in Paradise. I can't believe the nine-year-old

is allowed to listen to this show. I feel like Bachelor in Paradise is way worse. You do? Yes. All right. Well, the kid seemed pretty cool. That kid did seem cool.

All right. This is called Ball. Hey, Wells and Brandy. This is Julie from Louisiana. Hey, Louisiana. One of my least favorite things right now is the book My Brilliant Friend by Elena Ferrante. She's an Italian author, and it's just boring as fuck. Apparently, there's a new series about it, and I assume it is also boring.

All right. The main reason I'm calling is Wells mentioned one time he was a page in a Mardi Gras ball. I was. And I'm curious if it was the Gabriel ball and how he ended up doing that. Anyways, love you both

so much. Five stars. Fuck you very much. Bye. Love. Oh wait, I meant to say thank you. Wait, what is it? Isn't it? Yeah. Is it fuck you very much? Yeah, it is. That wait. I meant to say thank you. Wait. What is it? Isn't it? Yeah. Is it fuck you very much? Yeah, it is.

Is that what you'll do in the comments? Yeah. I don't know. All right. Bye. Okay. So have I ever told you about when I was a page in Mardi Gras? I don't think so.

I mean, obviously, I've talked about it because she mentioned it. So yes, I was a page to the King of Mardi Gras. It wasn't in New Orleans. It was in Lafayette. In Mississippi it's called Lafayette, but down there I think it's called Lafayette. Yeah. Interesting. I'll tell you how that happened. My father

went to med school at Tulane, which is in New Orleans. Yeah. And his best friend, I think roommate, was a guy named Rex, which is ironic because he became the king, which is called the Rex or whatever, of the Lafayette Mardi Gras. And he needed a page. And lo and behold, there I was.

And it was amazing. I was like 12 years old and I'm on a float for the first time throwing out beads. I realized rather quickly that if I said, show me your titties. Wells. I don't even know if I said it, but people were showing titties. And I remember afterwards, I was like, I saw 48 titties today. Like, it was great. Oh my gosh.

So many titties. And you loved it. 12-year-old boy? Are you kidding me? I was becoming a man? That might have been the weekend that I became a man. I would say so. All right. This one's called Brandi.

Uh-oh. I know. Hi, welcome, Brandi. This is Annie from Denver. Hey. I'm an OG listener. I love the pod. Love you.

And my favorite thing recently is presumed innocent. But did you ever learn why Jake Gyllenhaal went back to the house after his girlfriend slash co-worker was killed? Because I still don't understand why he left and came back. My second favorite thing is that I got to see Brandy DJ in Denver, and she was amazing. I hope the Kelly Doreen song gets released. However, my least favorite thing, I am a teacher, and I heard the doors opened at 10, so I showed up to the club at 10.30, and Brandy didn't start playing until 12.20, and 12.20 on a Friday for a teacher is rough.

Damn, Brandy. And I love you, Brandy. You were great, but I'm sorry I had to leave early because that was hours past my bedtime. Anyways, love you guys. Oh, love you. But, Brandy, you got to tell people when they got to be there, bro. Here's the thing.

The club gets upset when you do that because they want people to show up early on stage. Right? Like that's kind of the whole point. That's why they don't advertise specific times. However, it's also past my bedtime, just so we're clear. Yeah, you hate it just as much. I hate it just as much. But pro tip, anytime you go see a DJ, especially at a nightclub, the headliner never goes on before midnight,

usually not even before 1 a.m. Never going to. So just in case you're going to see any other DJs or going to any of my shows in the future, I would never show up before midnight unless you just want to be there to be there. But like in Vegas and shit, like if you guys ever go to Vegas, the headliner goes on at 1.30 in Las Vegas.

And that's if they show up on time. You know? Yeah. So it's rough out there. Yeah. It's rough out there. But thanks for coming because Denver, I loved that show. Denver's lit.

It was nice. Yeah. One more, then we'll finish the show up. This one's called BTS. Okay. Hi, Wells and Brandy. I was wondering if you could tell some behind-the-scenes stories from different things that y'all have filmed. Like, Brandy, like some of the house-looking shows and things like that. I know, Wells, you can only tell so many behind-the-scenes stories from your recent filming until that starts airing and stuff.

Or some, like, interesting things from interviewing people and what you were like not allowed to ask and especially for like wells like because you've interviewed probably so many celebs and stuff like that i just think that would be some interesting uh content to hear from y'all love y'all so much oh my name is amy thanks bye bye do you have any behind the scenes stuff the only like tea there is that they really wanted my mom and I to have conflict between us. Yeah. Like they really wanted us to fake some shit for there to be some drama. And we just refused.

We were like, no, we don't do that. But yeah, every day it was like, so can you guys disagree on this so that we can like have this? It's like, no. So that was annoying. Can't believe that show didn't go 17 seasons. Shocker. Well, thank God it didn't. It was the hardest thing I've ever done in my life.

I don't think I could have done it again if I wanted to. But, you know, great experience. Loved it. Whatever. That's really the only behind the scenes thing I really have from that show. All right. I think that's it. Okay. Do you got any musics?

Let's see. I got a song from David Kushner. It's called Darker Side. Do you want to just go out on it? Sure. Let's just go out on it. Great. I am finally

getting a fucking break. I couldn't be more thrilled. You're chilling. Yeah, I'm chilling. I have some things to do. You know, I got to work a little bit, but it's all at home for the next couple of weeks, which is really exciting. And then my next gig that's open to the public is I'm playing in Chicago on October 11th.

Nice. At a spot called Splash. And aside from that, like I don't really have that many more shows for the rest of the year. Chicago, October 11th. I'll be playing in LA on November 1st, which is Halloween weekend.

I'll be there. Yeah. It's going to be fun. It's like a Halloween show at the Avalon in Hollywood. It's an insomniac event so i think it'll be pretty good um and then we announced well i announced at our live show that i'll be djing at the one hotel nashville for new year's eve this year which i'm really excited about um so tickets haven't gone on sale for that yet you guys but we'll i'll make sure we

Yeah. Amazing. I know. Hey, I'm using all of my things. Can you go on Instagram and say what the number is to call us? Because we did a lot of voicemails. We need some more. Wait, you want me to do that? Yeah. Go to the Instagram? Go to the

David Kushner, Darker Side. Hey, by the way, did you know that that girl, the lead in The Perfect Couple, she's Bono's daughter? No, I didn't know that.
