Your Favorite Thing with Wells & Brandi - Fantasy Football and Crocodile Tears
Episode Date: October 6, 2021Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come to say your goodbyes to another season of the #1 television drama, Bachelor in Paradise. This week we bring you a recap of the heartbreak and love as we bid far...ewells to Wells on our television screens. It was a nice run, even though he was barely there. We (okay Wells) also talk sports for a bit and Brandi pretends to listen while nursing her hangover. Also, Britney is free, so that’s really exciting. We’re also campaigning to have Sarah be the next host of DWTS, because she knows all about the toe points and jumps. We conclude that tacos should be part of every buffet because it’s on you if you mess it up, and also, Wells shares his Halloween costume with Brandi and bleeps it out so we can’t hear. Rude.

Podcast time. I'm tired. Yeah. It's earlier for me than for you.
Your girl had two old fashions last night. Oh my goodness. On a Monday. And I think it was one too
many. The perfect number is one old fashioned. Yeah.
Got it. Who made this old fashioned? A little restaurant I like to call Fifth and Taylor.
Is that your favorite restaurant in Nashville? It's up there. Like it's definitely like when
my family's in town, we like to go because it's like everybody like loves it. And when people
ask for recommendations for Nashville, like it's always when people ask for recommendations for Nashville like it's
always in my top three recommendations for sure yeah it's a good date spot like it's it's like
not it's not outrageous but it's a nice restaurant you know like getting in a cheap night out but the
food's amazing the old-fashioned I had it was like a fall old-fashioned had some like coffee syrup in
it I don't know it was was great. But the head.
The head's hurting.
Were you on a date here?
Like what was happening?
Oh, I was with my family.
Oh.
Yeah.
Got it.
I was with the fam bam.
Is the damn fam.
You got a drink to get through a family dinner, you know?
Tell me about it, sister.
Gotta.
Oh, that's good.
Is everyone like home for.
It's not even the holidays yet. What am I thinking? It seems like it's the holidays now, sister. Got it. Well, that's good. Is everyone like home for, it's not even the holidays yet.
What am I thinking?
It seems like it's the holidays now, right?
Mm-hmm.
It sure does.
Like we're, we're just going to shut it down until February, feels like.
Yep.
That sounds right.
That sounds like what's going to happen.
Perfect.
Kind of here for it.
Yeah, it's good and it's bad.
We've been shut down for so long.
I don't need another shutdown.
I need money. That's true. Give me money. Oh, that's true. We've been shut down for so long. I don't need another shutdown. I need money.
That's true.
Give me money.
That's true.
Paradise not paying the bills?
Well, that money came and went long ago.
Okay?
We filmed that in the summertime.
I finally got to see the new SoFi Stadium where, like, the Rams and the Chargers play yesterday.
Oh, I feel like everyone and their mom was there.
Yeah, it was a lot of people.
Well, because there was, the Rams played yesterday
and then the Chargers played last night, same stadium.
But I always say, man, that place is fucking loud.
I mean, I guess it should be because it costs $5 billion.
Here's a fun fact.
SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles is the most expensive stadium
I think they've ever built.
Wow.
Coming in at $5.5 billion, which is a lot of money.
Guess how much the second most expensive stadium is, which was just built in Las Vegas for the Raiders.
Don't know.
Just guess.
$3 million.
Nope.
$1.9 billion.
Just guess.
Three million.
Nope.
1.9 billion.
I mean, it's not like the new SoFi Stadium is not even double.
It's more than double the most expensive stadium ever built.
Is that because it's in LA?
Probably.
I don't know.
But I will say it's loud, man.
I've been to a lot of loud stadiums.
I would say that like LSU Death Valley at night is very fucking loud.
Kansas City Camaro Head, that place is loud.
But last night, I could not hear anything the entire game.
So anyways, yeah, that place is pretty cool.
Beautiful football.
Wouldn't know.
You're not a big football gal.
I will say another thing about football. That's my favorite thing.
So I'm in a fantasy league with like all the old bachelor people.
Ben and Jared and Dean and Nick and Harrison.
We're all in it.
Your boy is 4-0.
And I don't like to like do this because then I'm going to like jinx myself.
But your boy is 4-0.
No one is even close to having a record like that.
Okay?
Beat Tanner this past week.
Tanner won DraftKings
a million dollars twice.
Yeah, but last time
I had to give it back though
because there was some scandal
or something.
I mean, I'm just feeling good.
Well, that's great.
For my team,
even though my Raiders
lost last night
and my Titans lost yesterday.
It's fine.
Oh, yeah.
Sports.
We lost the entire audience
just now.
Cool.
Got it.
Okay, let's bring it back.
Including me. Yeah, I know. Okay. Let's bring them back.
Including me.
Yeah.
I know.
You want to start and then get into Bachelor?
Yeah.
Okay.
You or me?
I think maybe me.
Go for it.
Bros and hoes, you're listening to your favorite thing podcast with- Wells and Brandy.
Episode 174, the last episode of Paradise, where we will recap and then we'll get back to normal stuff.
Then we'll probably still talk about freaking Michelle's season.
I don't know.
You know we will.
I know we will, but I'm going to focus a lot less on that this go around.
Because you're not on it?
Yeah.
Yes.
Yes.
All right. Well, you were barely on this one too but that's okay
so okay great what tv shows are you on right now oh got it i don't want to be on tv
when i was on tv it was the hardest fucking thing i've ever done in my whole life so
yeah i'll pass on that. Last episode finale.
Are you surprised?
I'm a little surprised.
There were so many engagements, but it would, I think it was my favorite finale of any Bachelor
in Paradise so far.
Really?
Why?
I don't know.
I just loved it.
I really love all three of these couples because all three of them are very unexpected.
I think any person that gets engaged in Paradise is unexpected because it's like, seriously,
you guys are getting engaged in adult camp. Got it. Cool. I mean, that's true, but I don't know.
All three of the couples are just very kind of odd pairs, like not people you would really ever
put together. And I kind of love that. Yeah. Yeah.
Okay. Well, we'll get to the engagements there at the end, but I guess we got to start at the
beginning. I do love the engagement day, but I really love breakup day. I love breakup day.
It is my favorite thing to sit and watch at the bar and they won't even, they just drop like flies.
Dude, people are just like, they get't even use. They just drop like flies.
Dude, people are just like, peace.
They get like senioritis.
They're just like, I'm out.
I got to go.
Yeah.
Let's go back to Noah and Abigail.
Oh, gosh.
Yeah.
I mean, like, do you care?
The only reason I care is because I feel awful for Abigail because I think Noah's trash.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
So I don't know.
He just was so like,
he just flip-flopped. Like it was like one second.
He's like,
I'm in love with you or I love you
or whatever the fuck he said.
And then like all of a sudden he's like stone cold.
You're not my person.
Bye.
Yeah.
What?
Come on.
It didn't make any sense to me either.
It's like, wait, hold on.
Like less than 24 hours ago,
you said you're falling in love with her. Like what? Like if you're using the rationale of she didn't make any sense to me either. It's like, wait, hold on. Like less than 24 hours ago, you said you're falling in love with her.
Like what?
Like if you're using the rationale of she didn't say it back and she's like, oh, I didn't hear him.
Let's not forget.
She's hearing impaired.
Probably a pretty good, you know, excuse.
Yeah.
No.
Were you just like looking for an exit strategy?
Didn't sit well with me.
But haven't really bought that since day one, their whole thing.
So do they do this every time? Do they at the the end do they show like where they are now where are
they now type things no paradise no because we've always done reunion show we didn't do one this
year so oh i see okay well i loved that little montage but you know like obviously they said
like oh they're hanging out and whatever again and And I'm like, girl, move on. You deserve way fucking better. Well, did you see like all the drama with Claire and Dale?
I read something about it somewhere,
but I don't understand what's going on.
So please explain it to me.
I mean, I don't really either,
but apparently like Claire and Dale
are broken up for good this time.
And it's like-
Right, sure, okay.
Oh, okay.
But what does it have to do with Abigail?
That's what I didn't understand.
I guess a very cryptic message that Claire left on Instagram.
And it seemed like, you know, maybe Dale was hooking up with somebody else or something.
And for some reason, Abigail was tagged in it, thus making Bachelor Nation think that Abigail and Dale hooked up, which is like, what? And then Noah put out a video where he's like,
so I've been getting sent a lot of things on Instagram
and I'd like to like address it.
Like, I don't know what you guys are talking about.
And then you hear someone giggling in the background
and it's obviously Abigail's giggle.
Anyways, I just don't care.
Claire, please stop. I'm done. I'm done with you.
We're like three fucking people away from your season. I gotta stop. Can't. Don't. Yeah. Care anymore. I mean, here's the thing, dude. You did the show for two episodes. Remember? And then you
left. No, yeah. I don't care. Okay okay so the ed mckenna breakup was hilarious justice
for ed ed is not trash i agree justice for ed that poor guy he just did not he did not want to
get broken up with and i'm sure in his mind he's like you can't go with me we're not even together
but like let's keep saying hanging out and she was like having none it. Which I don't really get because like McKenna, honey, come on.
Like the guy really likes you.
I think you should give him a shot here.
Like what's wrong with you?
Not for nothing, but like we don't deserve Ed.
You don't deserve Ed, you know?
Yeah.
But here's my thing.
Like I want Ed back on that beach.
Like I want Ed back on that beach so bad, I want Ed back on that beach so bad.
I think, yeah, he'll come back, right?
I hope so.
You know, he really pulled my heartstrings this season.
Oh.
I really liked Ed, even though he looks exactly like young Sylvester Stallone.
Okay.
And then you have the James and Aaron breakup bromance.
Okay.
What the fuck, James okay what the fuck james what the fuck like you've been on this beach the whole time yeah no one's liked you no one's given you the time of day because you're we
thought you were too nice of a guy we thought oh he's just too nice he's just such a good guy he's
walked over like the good guy always ends up last, blah, blah, blah.
And then here comes, you know, sweet little Anna.
And you guys have a great time.
And she really likes you.
And it seems like James is finally, like, all of his time on this beach is finally for a reason.
He's made a connection.
And then he's just going to, oh, I'm not into it.
Bye.
What's he doing?
Okay, you've known the girl a couple of days.
We're not expecting you to tell her that she's your fucking person and you want to leave together.
But couldn't you at least have been like, hey, I've had so much fun with you.
Like, I'd like to see you outside of paradise.
That didn't make a whole lot of sense.
The bit is hilarious.
Like, okay.
Well, sure.
Let's just like break down why this is so fucking funny.
One, because those two guys are the
bro-iest of all the bros i've ever come across in that place that's not a good thing or a bad thing
it's just facts hard facts james breaking up with anna's like okay whatever and then aaron going and
doing that to tia was kind of fucked up but also like really really funny but tia kind of getting
left for guys going after other guys is the subplot
here right right they don't say it but we're all thinking it and in that respect chef's kiss right
i mean it was a little funny the aaron and tia part for me because it was like they made out
once like it's like they have a relationship you know and so tia's reaction to me was hilarious
she was cracking up and she's like, well, fuck you.
And laughing it off.
And I think it's really funny.
But I think Anna really liked James.
And I thought James, it seemed to me like James was looking at her like, oh my gosh,
like heart eyes for you a little bit.
And then he was just like, nope.
Yeah.
All right.

They seem like good kids looking for love.
Yeah, there you go.
You know?
Yeah, totally.
Oh, man, the Nectar bros.
They're just hilarious.
I don't know if we'll—
Do they really live together in San Diego now?
I wouldn't be surprised, you know.
That is fucking nuts.
They invited me to go to—
There's, like, some club that they go to where the drinks are free.
And I think normally I would be like, no way.
But for those two, like, I would like to go out and see what, like, a night out with those dudes are.
I'm going to be in San Diego.
Yeah? Not this weekend, but next weekend playing blended festival so aaron and james if you guys would like
to uh go on a little bro date and come out to the festival let me know all right there you have you
all right i like that i see this dynamic in person i can reach out to him you need to have them both
at your dj booth like as your hype men. Oh, my God.
That would be funny.
You know?
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm in.
Were there any other breakups?
Oh, oh, oh.
We didn't talk about Becca and Thomas.
Oh, oh, yeah.
That was a weird one.
His fake crying was the worst acting I've ever seen anywhere on any TV show in my 34 years.
Like, have you ever seen something so bad?
I like Thomas, but I was going to say, bro, what are you doing?
It was atrocious.
Someone get this guy some eye drops.
Jesus Christ.
How did Becca keep a straight face during that?
That's the thing.
I'm amazed that she wasn't like, bro.
I'm amazed.
What are you doing here?
I think he was sad.
And I think in his weird mind, he thinks that that's what he was supposed to do.
But he couldn't get there.
But he's like, I'm supposed to do this, you know?
Right.
Poor guy.
It almost seemed to me because she did keep a straight face.
It almost seemed to me like they had kind of like made already talked about what they were going to do and been like, all right, well, you know, we're not gonna get engaged here. So like, let's like
have like, you know, like, like a good exit, right? And like, put on like a nice like show
for the show to exit. And I'll tell you that I'm not sure and you're and I'm not sure that,
you know, I'm in for this. And then you'd be upset and sad. And then we'll go home and continue to
date and it'll all be great. I don't think that's what happened i don't maybe thomas had that thought in his mind and he's everyone's
gonna love me i'm gonna be a star in hollywood you're gonna see my acting chops and then that
happened i think the aaron james thing was funny i think thomas crying was funnier
uh anyways i think that's those are all the breakups you know the little the ending said Thomas crying was funnier.
Anyways, I think that those are all the breakups.
You know, the little, the ending said that Becca and Thomas are still seeing each other.
Yeah.
Do you not think that's kind of weird considering the way it ended on the show?
Not really. I mean, they did like each other and she was like super into him.
I was not surprised that they got back together.
Here's the thing about like breakup dates. It's not binary there. There's all these different shades of like, okay, get engaged or
like leave together or leave. But I don't know. Let's just see what happens. And then, oh, maybe
I'll fly to Colorado and see, and then we'll see what happens. Or we break up, you know, like there's
all these different shades. The truth of the matter is I don't think Rebecca really wanted to break
up with him, but didn't want to leave as a couple together.
So really where they left was like somewhere in that gray area.
And so it doesn't shock me.
I am a little shocked about Abigail and Noah rekindling outside.
You know, that one I was like, oh, OK.
That's how you felt, Noah.
What the fuck?
You know?
I know.
Why would you think a good play is to break America's little sweetheart?
Yeah. All right. So I think those is to break America's little sweetheart? Yeah.
All right.
So I think those are all the breakups.
I think so.
And then we have the engagements.
My whole thing was like, I just didn't really think Riley was going to be able to get there as far as just like an engagement, not because he doesn't love her or like her.
I think he does a lot, but like, I was just shocked he was able to do that.
I think there's some things that are really probably important to him.
Like he, you know, he said like, you haven't even met my mom and things like that,
where I was like, you know what? I I'm thinking he might say let's leave together, but I can't
do the engagement thing yet. So I was a little surprised that he did propose. That's the only
thing about that. Mari and Kenny, I love them together. Oh really? I really do. I really do too.
But I feel like when we talked, you know, in the past episodes, you were like, I don't
like Mari and Kenny definitely aren't going to get together.
Riley and Marissa, maybe.
And Joe and Serena, maybe.
But now you're saying that you love Mari and Kenny.
So even though I didn't think they would make it, I've always kind of liked them together.
I just really thought that after everything that's happened between them on the season,
that it was like, it was, I almost thought like it was just too much for them to really make it work you know
they both had moments second guessing and going back and forth and so usually when you when that
happens like I feel like it's people aren't making it work what I love about them though is like I
feel like they're both super fucking weird and I think Mari hides that she is because she's so
pretty and like you know she's like her outwardly and she's so quiet and like kind of stealth about it. But I feel like deep down she's like kind of a freak. And I think he's a freak. And I have ever seen the producers do on this show is bring Kendall in to the platform where he's about to propose to his girl.
You're mad at producers or are you mad at Kendall?
Well, he's mad at Kendall.
But I mean, honestly, I just can't imagine being a producer and being like, all right, yeah, I'm about to do this to this guy.
about to do this to this guy like this good guy that's finally moved on and we've already tortured him once by bringing his ex down here and making him relive all these memories with her right here
while he's trying to move on and we're gonna fucking do it again when this poor guy is about
to like open up his heart and propose to this woman that he loves and we're gonna dangle his
fucking ex in front of him again on the spot where he's about to propose i don't know i it was
tough for me to watch it i agree it's fucked up i don't know if i completely agree with like
where you're directing your anger though i don't know because the producers had the power to tell
kendall like okay we're not gonna let you do this like it's one thing for her to come up there and
say like i want one more chance to like break joe and serena up and for them to be like okay we're not gonna let you do this like it's one thing for her to come up there and say like i want one more chance to like break joe and serena up and for them to be like okay yep that'll
be good tv go on okay but here's my argument against that because the producers aren't in
the business of like making sure joe is okay the producers are in the business of the art of making
a good television show now if you if you make the decision to go do that
on that day of all days,
I think the onus lies upon Kendall.
I would have been like,
there's no way in hell I'm doing that on engagement day.
I would have said, no way, I gotta go.
Because no one's making you do anything.
Yeah.
I just know people do crazy shit
when you're in love
and you think you're going to lose somebody. Yeah, I know. So it's like, yeah, Kendall's in the wrong for sure. But she's blinded
by the like rage and like conflicting feelings of like rage and loving Joe and like all the things.
So it's like, of course she's going to try and break them up. Come on. She's a woman. Like,
come on. We're like, we're not going to back down. Right. It's like, you're going to give it every
shot you've got. Producers have watchede go through all this and like had the ability to
tell kendall like no you had your chance let the guy be happy or whatever don't ruin the moment
like because now for him like if it were me i mean serena doesn't know because she wasn't there and
didn't see it happen but like if that were me and i were Joe like that memory of me proposing would always be like
maimed by the the visual of Kendall standing there right before Serena and that would make
me so fucking mad at them I agree I just like did they have to have her come and stand right
there on the platform why couldn't they have been like Joe hey uh we need you to come over here for
a minute um something's up and like take him off that fucking platform.
It's just the visual of her fucking standing there
during Serena's moment angers me.
I agree.
I'm angry.
It's the obvious place to do it.
I'm angry.
I wish Joe had done a little bit of,
you're going to do this on this day to me.
I know.
Love you always will.
Sorry it didn't work out but you're gonna do this to me on this day of all days yeah i kind of wish he'd he had kind of sacked up so
not cool i know and then it put him in a bad situation because he got engaged and he's just
the most honest person in the world he had to tell Serena immediately or he told her before they got engaged.
Like,
Hey,
just so you know,
kind of just came down and you could see,
you could see like the just light fade away from her eyes immediately.
And he was,
I agree with you.
I think it's annoying.
I disagree with who I'm angry at,
I guess about it.
I got pitched a lot.
I mean,
when I was on the show,
I got pitched a lot of ideas that I said,
no,
thank you.
I will not be doing that.
And they said, okay, fine. You know, like you can say no
to things. I hear where you're coming with it all. BTS, they didn't show is that when that happened,
I was down there and then I went and had to have a talk with Joe and be like, how are you doing?
And he was just like, problem is that Joe, I could never rattle Joe. He, cause he was just,
well, this is ridiculous. I can't believe she came down here. What am I going to do now? I just got to laugh it off. Joe, you can be you can be emotional here.
It's OK. And he just wouldn't. He was just like, this is so ridiculous. I was kind of always his
response. They obviously cut it because I couldn't get the grocery bitch to cry next time. Maybe
he did shed a little tear when he asked Serena to bury him. I know. I loved it so much. I know.
I loved it.
I'm dying to know,
is she moving to Chicago?
Yeah, I don't know.
I'm dying to know.
But I feel like Toronto to Chicago
is not that far of a flight.
No, it's not.
But you can't get married
and live in different cities.
Like, what's going on, you know?
Yeah.
So, I mean, I guess you could,
but it sounds crazy.
You can go back and forth.
I don't know.
Yeah, you can go back and forth for sure.
I got a feeling she's gonna move to Chicago.
That's what I was thinking.
This is turning into a big, you know,
90 day fiance fiasco.
Screencard chasing.
Love them.
Final thoughts on BIP.
Who do you think is gonna last and who do you think is gonna fizzle
I don't know I could honestly see all three of these couples making it hope so did you like the
season I did I liked it a lot it's good huh uh-huh it was good I know that this sounds bias because
I'm on this one but I gotta say it used to think that The Bachelor was the best show and then
Paradise was the second best show and then Bachelorette was third. I now think that it's not even close. Personally, I think
Paradise is so much better than the other two shows for whatever reason. I don't know why,
but for whatever reason, it's just so much more entertaining to me than the other ones.
I can see that.
But you need the other two for Paradise.
Yeah, you do.
Are we closing the book on BIP season seven?
I think so.
All right.
We did it.
We did it.
You got some fave things, bro?
I actually don't know if I do.
Okay, good.
Well, luckily, I also do this show.
Have you watched the new, quote unquote, new Britney doc?
There's a new one.
Did you know?
No, but I saw that her dad is no longer her conservator
right which we love to see yeah free britney it happened she is free is she well from him okay
which we love yeah so but there is there's a new doc i don't know who made this one maybe netflix
i think it's on netflix and apparently i haven't seen it yet, but apparently it's mostly about like, I guess her dad had security cameras like put everywhere so he could
spy on her, which is like a little bit creepy. But also like as a parent, if your kid's going
down a dark hole, like it's such a blurry line of like, can you justify doing that and invading
someone's privacy like that? That's an adult. Like I just, it's crazy to blurry line of like, can you justify doing that and invading someone's privacy like
that? That's an adult. Like I just, it's crazy to me. So apparently that's what it's all about
is like this security team that did all these things that her dad asked them to do that were
probably not okay. And, and that that's has like a lot to do with the, how the whole conservatorship
started, I think. So I need to watch that because it's the talk of the town right now.
Okay.
I have no idea what you're talking about,
but there's also a part of me that's like,
it's Britney Spears.
There's going to be cameras everywhere
because of security.
Like Sarah and I have a big security system.
Yeah, but like not like in the house,
like spying on what you're doing.
Yeah, but we have cameras in the house
that look at like different parts of the house.
Yeah, but who's looking at those cameras
besides you guys?
No, just us.
That's what I'm saying.
And like her dad's over here watching it
with like the whole security team.
I don't know.
It was just, I need to watch it before I speak on it, I guess.
But it sounds sketchy as fuck.
Have you been watching Dancing with the Stars at all?
No.
That's okay.
I really don't care about Dancing with the Stars.
One, because like, I just don't know who's good
and who's not good.
Sarah's like, oh my God, look at their plie or whatever.
I don't even know the term, you know?
By the way, campaign to get Sarah to be a judge on that show
because she knows all the fucking moves.
She's always saying like, oh my God, great lines,
like good toe points, all this stuff.
And I'm like, you need to be a judge on this show.
Get that fucking old guy, get him out of here.
Old guy, I need you out, dude.
Don't care about your old ass.
And here's my other thing. Carrie Ann Anon. She's mean. She's not like Simon Cowell,
like where it's like his show, so he gets to be mean or whatever. Like, I don't understand why
you get to be mean. I don't understand. I will say Derek Hough, great job. Thumbs up. And also
like the really flamboyant guy at the end who's always standing up and be like, amazing. I love
that guy. I love him. Love that guy. Love that guy. So this is what I want. I want Sarah, Derek Hough, and then
amazing guy. I love that guy. Okay. And also here. I'm on board. Here's my other thing with Tyra Banks.
Tyra Banks, I really need you to pay attention to talking over people when you're doing your
interview. As the radio guy in me is like, when two people are talking at the same time, no one is talking because you can't hear anything. Please ask
your question. Let people respond. That's my, end it there. I have some issues with this season.
Here are my issues. So you are watching it. Yeah, I watched a couple episodes,
but here's my issues. All these people are too good at dancing. the show in my mind is supposed to be
people who fucking suck at dancing
that are kind of famous,
who then become good.
You can't go being a dancer,
Jojo Siwa.
She's known for being on Dance Moms.
That's a show about people who are dancers.
What the fuck?
That's like if there was like some football tryout show
and you sent Peyton Manning.
He's already good.
How can you get better if you're already a dancer?
It makes no sense.
You're right.
Of course, she's good.
It makes no sense.
Oh, Suni Lee?
She's a gymnast.
Gymnasts are dancers.
Of course, you're going to be good at this
and you're going to flip around and do all these crazy stuff.
You're a dancer.
That's dancing with flips and shit.
That's not fair.
You know?
Yeah.
And then Brian Austin Green.
Come on, dude.
You're dating a fucking dancer.
You guys get to practice the entire time.
Cheater, cheater, pumpkin, Brian Green eater.
I don't understand, dude.
And then you got Sporty Spice, Melanie C.
You were in an all- all girls pop band you could you
have to be a dancer it's like having lance bass on the show you're a dancer you know choreography
amanda klutz she's on broadway if you're on broadway you have to know how to sing and dance
everyone on this show is a cheater ah what about Matt James? How's he doing?
He's okay.
That's who we're supposed
to have on there.
Someone who's like,
not good,
but they get better
and then it's interesting,
you know?
Right, yeah, for sure.
Fucking an actual dancer
goes on Dancing with the Stars
is insane to me.
I have two big time fave things.
Oh, really? Big time fave things. Oh, really?
Big time fave things.
Okay.
Have you started watching Midnight Mass?
I was literally going to say it was my least favorite thing this week.
Oh, my God.
Brandy, I have to say, the more I do this show, the more I realize you have terrible taste in everything.
Okay.
Listen, I was excited about it because it's the same somebody as haunting of hill house
which i fucking loved yeah and i love michael saracen from friday night lights yeah and he's
in it i love halloween i love spooky stuff and so i was excited about it but it's just not grasping
me oh what episode are you on i just watched one well yeah you you gotta you gotta get to
the meat of the show how many episodes in is that maybe three i was like sarah you need to
stop going to pilates and we need to finish this show oh my god it's really oh my god i was
obsessed with you need to watch first of all you need to watch episode two because Alon wrote episode two.
Oh, he did.
And I have to say the writing in it is phenomenal.
It's annoying that you haven't seen it
because I want to talk to you about like what I think it is.
Well, I'll give it another go if you love it that much.
I'm telling you, it's one of the better shows I've seen all year.
What?
Yeah.
All right.
Here's the tag.
An isolated island community experiences miraculous
events and frightening omens after the arrival of a charismatic, mysterious priest. Midnight Mass.
So it's on island off the coast of Maine, small little island. The main character, like Brandy
said, the guy from Friday Night Lights, his name is Zach Guilford. He's been in jail for, I don't
know, the past like maybe six or seven years because he got into an accident, killed somebody
while drunk driving. A kid. Yeah, a little girl. So he gets out of jail and he has to kind of go
back to living with his family and like get on his feet. All the while, it's a very, very tight
knit community. It's a very religious community. Everyone goes to mass and everything. A new priest comes in, and he's like, don't worry.
I'm not replacing your old priest.
He's just not feeling great, and he's back on the mainland getting some, you know, in the hospital getting some work done.
But he's going to be fine.
He'll be back soon.
And then some weird stuff starts to happen.
This young priest starts to perform miracles.
There's a little girl who's paraplegic, she's in a wheelchair and he like makes her walk.
And then everyone that's kind of like old and stuff starts becoming younger.
And all these things start happening and you're like, who is this priest?
And then when you realize who the priest is and what he's doing and how he's doing it it absolutely blows your mind and
what episode are you on i finished it oh you're done oh shit okay but anyways it is so good please
just keep going watch okay watch the second get to the third episode and then i'll let you go
okay but by then you're gonna be like i'm i'm hooked all right well that makes me excited
because i was super excited about it when I saw it come up.
Yeah, it's good.
The other one that I haven't finished, I've got one episode left, but is so good, is the Korean show called Squid Game.
Squid Game.
Everyone's talking about it.
Yeah, it's good.
It's very good.
Okay, but I've heard, first of all, I heard it's obviously subtitles, which is tough for me.
It's, no, it's dubbed.
Oh, it's dubbed.
It's overdubbed, yeah.
Okay, that's better, I think.
And then the second thing is, I think my mom said that it was like really, really dark.
Yes, it is.
Like how dark are we talking?
I'll just kind of give you the synopsis of it and you can kind of figure it out from there.
Hundreds of cash-strapped players accept a strange invitation to compete in children's games.
Inside, a tempting prize awaits with deadly high stakes.
A survival game that has a whooping 45.6 billion won prize at stake. Squid Game. It's like a bunch
of people who live in South Korea who are in debt. They get invited to come play this game.
The first game, everyone goes out into this big field and they play Red Light, Green Light. I
don't know if you remember Red Light, Green Light, but someone's at the end of a line and they say,
Green Light, and you start running and they say, Red Light, you gotta stop.
Okay.
They start playing Red Light, Green Light.
But here's the thing.
When she says, Red Light, it's a stop.
And if you move at all, it'll notice that you've moved and then it puts a bullet in your brain.
Oh, frick.
So, I mean, the first game is amazing because it's like 456 people are playing.
And, you know and someone goes and stops
and then moves a little bit and they shoot him
and then everyone starts fucking freaking out,
but still on red light, no one's supposed to be moving.
So then it just starts like unloading a lot of people.
And then some people are like, oh my God, I can't move.
And then they've got to finish the game,
but you've also got a clock.
You got to get to the end before four minutes are up
or whatever.
It's like that.
It's like children's games, but obviously very high stakes, but for a lot of money.
And it's really good.
Really?
Really good.
And yeah, you're right.
It is super gory.
It's like Hunger Games, but not.
Right.
But not that.
All right.
Wow.
I mean, everyone's there saying it's like the best Netflix show ever.
Well, yeah.
Apparently, it's like the only show ever to have 100% rating on like Rotten Tomatoes.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
And then last, I got a movie for you guys.
Have you heard about Vacation Friends?
No.
It's so good.
Okay.
It's on Hulu and it's Lil Rel Howery. He's
like a comedian. He's in Get Out and Tag and Free Guy. Like if you saw him, you'd be like, oh yeah,
I know exactly who that guy is. And then it's John Cena and then a bunch of other people. So
here's the tag. A couple meets up with another couple while on vacation in Mexico, but their friendship takes an awkward turn
when they get back home.
So John Cena and his wife, Meredith Hagner,
I think her name is,
they're like the party people at the resort, okay?
Mm-hmm.
You know, the other couple is like very kind of conservative
and he's got like the whole trip planned out.
He's gonna get engaged there.
And to be romantic,
it's just going to be about them.
Things happen where they're like room gets ruined.
And so they have to kind of bunk up with John Cena and his wife and John
Cena and his wife.
Like the first thing they do is like,
they make a margaritas and they're drinking them like,
Oh my God,
these margaritas are so good.
Like what's on,
what's on the rim.
This doesn't taste like salt.
And they're like,
Oh no,
that's cocaine.
And they're like, we rimmed the entire thing of, you know, margarita with cocaine good. They're like, what's on the rim? This doesn't taste like salt. And they're like, oh no, that's cocaine. And they're like, you rimmed the entire thing
of, you know, margarita with cocaine.
They're like, yeah, we're in Mexico, guys.
Oh my God.
So they're like super party, like super crazy,
fun, like down for anything.
And the other couple's not.
When you're on vacation, you're just like,
fuck it, let's just do it.
Let's have so much fun.
Let their guard down and have this amazing time.
And at the end of it, okay,
we're going to go back to our real lives.
And John Cena's, we're going to be friends forever.
And they're like, yeah, yeah, sure we are.
And like, you know, like we're never going to talk to them again.
We're never going to mention all the cocaine we did,
all the crazy stuff that happened.
Fast forward, you know, the conservative couple's getting married.
The bride-to-be comes from like this very well-to-do family.
The wedding is very highfalutin and stuff.
Obviously, John Cena and his wife rash it.
I thought we were best friends forever.
And why weren't we invited?
What the fuck?
Calamity ensues.
Then you realize that the true friends are your vacation friends.
And it's so good.
It's so good.
That sounds good.
It's really, it was a movie that I was like, okay, whatever. And then we watched it
and I was like, I love this movie.
Forgetting Sarah Marshall vibes
meets like Wedding Crashers vibes.
Love. Fantastic.
Love that. Love that for me.
So like last thing, and obviously
I went to that football game last night,
which was a lot of fun. And so we were in a box
and there
was a buffet and the buffet was great.
But you know how sometimes
when you're in a box,
you can see the people
in the box next to you
and you can see
that they have different food.
Oh my God,
what are they eating?
And the people in the box
next to us,
they were eating tacos
and they looked delicious.
Yum.
And I was like,
I want that.
Sarah's like,
we can't have that
because we don't have
the tacos over here.
I was like,
yeah,
but I want the tacos
over there.
And she was like,
yeah,
but you can't have the tacos
because we're not over
in that box.
You can just eat
what's in this box.
Yeah,
but I want the tacos. And here's the thing, I was, every buffet, if you can't have the tacos because we're not over in that box. You can just eat what's in this box. I said, yeah, but I want the tacos.
And here's the thing.
Every buffet, if you're listening to me, Culinary Institute, making buffets, every buffet should have tacos.
And do you know why?
Because tacos are only as bad as you make them because you have to create it.
You have to decide what's going to go on it.
No one's at fault except for you, okay?
Because you've chosen bad things to put on your taco.
That's on you, okay?
Unless the meat's rancid or something.
I mean, how hard is it to fucking grill up some ground beef?
Not hard.
Some chicken?
Slice it up?
Okay.
You know?
But then it's all the things that you put on top of it.
And then it's delicious because you know what?
It's only as good as you can make it.
So, of course, it's going to be great because you made it because you know what you like.
Every buffet should have a taco.
What's going on?
It doesn't make any sense to me.
And it's also the easiest thing in the world. Oh, we
need some chicken. We need some beef. Maybe
some grilled veggies for the vegetarians.
Then it's just guacamole and onions
and cilantro and then hot sauce and
tortillas. Get it together.
Nothing gets you fired up like
tacos.
It's insane. It's true.
I got a question for you. Have you thought of a Halloween
costume? Yes. Oh, really? We got it. We did it. Are got it we did it share you're gonna make us wait i mean i will tell you but i'll bleep
it out okay we're doing oh sarah is going to be love and i'm going to be that's good yeah
that's cute yeah yeah i'm pumped about it it's coming in hot halloween is and we're
having a party if you want to come you are yeah i'll be in park city playing a show that's dumb
i know someone's got to work you know yeah well that sounds great can't wait to see the photos
you guys always slay i know i think we're really going to invest in a good photo booth this year.
Oh, you should for sure.
Yeah.
You know.
For sure.
I think we got a good step and repeat.
We need to get like dedicated camera or like phone just for that day.
Mm-hmm.
So.
That'll be good.
Mm-hmm.
Love it.
Oh, I wanted to promote next week.
Very excited to have the one and only Ingrid Michaelson on the show.
Very exciting.
We hardly ever have guests, so it's such a special treat when we do.
I know.
You really got to be great to be on our show.
It's true.
Ingrid's pretty great.
She's a very funny lady.
Speaking of musicians, do you have any musics?
Kevin Garrett has a new song called Lonely Like Me.
Sounds sad as fuck. Should we give it a play? Let's do it.
Why you keep looking for my cape? I ain't no hero.
You're not the one who needs my safe end.
But don't turn around yet.
I get the sense you wanna stay.
Let's follow the rules.
I'll leave it to you if we should.
I like that.
I mean, classic Kevin Garrett.
Yeah.
Did you know Limp Bizkit has out a new song?
No.
Dad vibes.
I kind of want to hear it.
Am I about to play Limp Bizkit?
I just want to hear.
I got to hear this.
Also, the way that they spent biscuit is hilarious.
I didn't even know if I knew that.
Biz kit.
Biz kit.
All right.
So here's Limp Bizkit on the block with a rip
Dad got the sag in the back with a drip
Gonna get a sip
La-di-da
Damn, this dad like the river
Flow so cold, need ice to deliver
Drop so hard like a rock
This can't be real.
No, it's real.
Like, this has to be for like a cartoon or a movie or something.
Like, this cannot be a real song they're putting out here.
It is a real song that's been put out.
And then you just made me play it on the podcast.
And so many dads and new balances are going to be growing out that fucking song.
And I can't.
All right.
What do you got?
Absolutely.
They are.
Yeah.
Okay.
I have one more.
This one's a real one.
Kane Brown has a song out with her.
That's a really cool duo.
It's called Blessed and Free. i just need to drive slow eyes closed but travel where my mind goes i'm just trying to lay low
so don't mind me struggle with my own i love her yeah she is so cool. I just am obsessed with her. So I finally listened to the majority of the Olivia Rodrigo record.
I haven't listened to any of it.
Really?
Yeah.
I know like they stole a bunch of Paramore songs.
That's all I know.
Yeah.
And you can tell she's influenced by a lot of things, which is great.
So here's my thing.
As a man who loves Sad Bastard, her stuff is really, really good.
But every song is about a boy.
Every song is about a breakup with another boy.
I don't think that there's a single song
that isn't about that.
I'm like blatantly about that.
Here's my thing, just mix it up a little bit, you know?
Well, men are trash, so it's easy to write about that.
I know, but have a song about, you know,
like your grandma dying or something,
climate change or something,
you know, like Sad Bastard up other things, you know?
Yeah.
I mean, I haven't heard it, so I can't, I can't really say anything.
Yeah.
You go listen to like old Elliot Smith records or like, you know, Ryan Adams records.
Like, yes, there are a lot of like breakup songs, but even Taylor Swift would like deviate
from a breakup song, sing a different type of song.
I don't, I don't really listen to her, so I don't know.
Okay.
Speaking of sad bastard, it's so funny because Sarah was, I'm obsessed with this artist and I can't stop listening to her so i don't know okay speaking of sad bastard it's so funny because sarah was i'm
obsessed with this artist and i can't stop listening to her oh yeah who is it she's like
her name's maddie diaz what maddie she's like what no i know her she's like oh you heard of her and
i was like no i know her from she lived in nashville forever and she's like oh my god her
new record is fucking amazing she's like you should tell her that she probably just tweet it to her because like that would
probably mean more than well yeah than me saying anything but she's got a new record out called
history of a feeling and okay i'm gonna look it up right now i loved her back in the day same
it's so good so yeah this is uh this is pretty great this is a song called think of me okay
all of the colors drain from your face i'm sorry i love you is noise that you make no i didn't even
notice you staying out staying out all night running your fingers down her thighs licking
your lips in the low light, I didn't even notice you
I hope you fuck her with your eyes closed
And think of me
I hope you left her with the lights low
Oh, and think of me.
Dude, girls are savage.
Yep.
Savage.
But men are trash, so.
Yeah, totally.
Amazing.
That's kind of all I got.
All right.
Pretty good.
Pretty good, right?
Yeah.
I'm excited to give Midnight Mass another go.
I wish I was you and I got to watch it again.
All right.
Well, I'm going to go out on another Maddie Diaz song because Sarah really likes it and she wants me to play it.
It's a song called History of a Feeling, which is the title track.
We're out of here.
Next week, we doing Inger Michelson or do you want to wait another week?
I think next week's good.
I think so too.
Yeah.
Excited to see what happens with Michelle's journey into love.
I love Michelle.
Do you?
Yeah, I think she's great.
I don't know.
I mean, like, I thought she was great on that last season or whatever, but I'm not sure.
I think the jury's still out for me, you know?
Okay.
I need to learn more.
Because remember, she came late, right?
Didn't she come late?
Yeah, she did.
Yeah, yeah.
So we didn't really get to know her as well.
Yeah.
So, you know.
