All right, just livin' it up here in New York.
Finally gettin' nice out.
Weird that it's been, it's been like kinda chilly
in New York City for end of May, beginning of June.
It's finally getting nice.
And maybe we're past this whole global warming thing,
you know, I don't know.
Or maybe this is the beginning of the end.
I'm not really sure.
All that I'm sure of is it's a beautiful day here in New York.
If you're watching this, you can see out there.
I went on a nice little run slash walk in Central Park.
My sister and my nieces were in town.
They went to see Sarah's show.
And then I took them on a tour of Central Park.
And we went to the Boathouse.
And I got to say, ding, went to the Boathouse and I gotta say ding ding uh the
Boathouse lovely if you come to New York walk yourself into the park go to the Boathouse ask
to be sat on the patio that overlooks the little lake where everyone's rowing it's magical absolutely
magical and also the food is very good I had oh what's that fish it's bullshit but everyone says
is Chilean sea bass.
It's not really a Chilean sea bass.
I think that's never existed.
They renamed it for marketing purposes,
but that's what I had and it was delicious.
Okay.
I had the oysters there.
Chef's kiss.
Let me tell you some other places.
Let me give you my heat map of New York
because I'm starting to really figure this place out, guys guys need to figure out a way to be able to share this with everyone for pizza.
bleaker street pizza is the best better than john's of bleaker street even though the president the Presidente of barstool disagrees with me but no I'm sorry.
bleaker street pizza is better than john's of bleaker street but both of those are very delicious pizza places.
pizza is better than john's oblique or street but both of those are very delicious pizza places. Keen's steakhouse highly
recommend fantastic steakhouse it's so old. They have all these
pipes hanging from the walls because back in the day when
people were rich and smoked pipes, they don't want to carry
their pipe so they would keep them there. So there's like a
million pipes in the walls. There's like Benjamin Franklin's
pipe real fancy people there. It's like a museum dude, they've
got the playbill that was in Lincoln's breast pocket when he
was shot and it's covered with blood, dude. Fantastic. Get the
lamb or the mutton, whatever they call it. Super cool, but
also real hard. Just go go to the bar, try to get a seat at the
bar early and just sit there and just just it's awesome.
Everyone knows Balthazar is great. They to have been I've talked about
this before on the show, but it's my favorite little French
restaurant. It's right there on I think 51st Street between 7th
and 8th. Great little French place. The owner is a guy
named Vincent. Everyone there is French. They all speak French.
They're absolutely lovely people get the s cargo just saying
alright. Also secret little burger joint called burger joint. It's in a
hotel but when you go in there looks like it's like a little
dive place. I think I'm gonna go there tonight actually. Oh and
Carbone. This isn't a secret about Carbone. Something new but
I gotta say dude, if you come to New York, get a reservation at
Carbone. It is I would say it's top three best meals ever had in
my entire life. And we've been like any three or four times, we
always go for like special anniversaries and stuff, or
special moments. It's never not been the most fire Italian place
in the world. It's bumping their celebrities there. It's hard to
get in 10 out of 10 would recommend is such good Italian
food. Anyways, so I'm like, is it a little New York boy? Oh, last
night, we went to the Drama Desk Awards, which is like, I
think the way that someone tried to describe it to me was
like, this is like the Golden Globes. If the Tonys were the
Oscars, but the Drama Desk Awards is pretty high up there.
Deborah Messing and Titus Burgess were the hosts. And it's pretty
funny because Sarah did Dirty Dancing with Debra Messing and I did Bachelor in Paradise
with Titus Burgess, which basically one of these people. Sarah presented with this guy
named Tom who is basically the star of Sunset Boulevard that's not named Nicole Scherzinger.
And he is lovely.
He's a lovely British man that we're supposed to go
on double dates now, which I'm excited about.
I'm gonna try to go see Good Night Good Luck
before it's over.
Wanna see George Clooney in this.
Anyways, that's what's happening in my New York life.
Should we, should we call the brandy?
Let's call it brandy.
Okay.
What are you having?
Organic cheddar chicks.
What makes them organic?
I don't know, but we're gonna ignore them
with other natural flavors because that's sus.
I gotta say, this is the first time I've seen
the new ta-tas in like a shirt
that really shows off the clavage.
They're not that different, right?
They're 100% different. Oh really? I feel like they're not that
different in a good way. But I gotta tell you, they're on full
display in Vegas, the tops that I wear, like really, you know,
push them up there. And the best night of my six run show. So
six show run so far the best night so far was when a girl
held up a phone sign that said, your boobs are my inspiration.
Ah, wow.
You know, it was just all worth it in that moment
that I was someone's inspo.
It's the little things in life or the C cups in life
that really.
They're not even a C, they're a full B.
Really?
How does Matt feel about the new boobs?
He loves them a lot, but he thought I could go bigger.
Classic. Oh really? Yeah I could go bigger. Classic. Oh, really?
Yeah. Typical.
Yeah. Yeah.
You should say the same thing about his dick.
I don't need to say that about it.
Yeah, he's seven feet tall.
I mean, even if he had a small dick
for a seven foot tall person,
it's still way too big. He doesn't.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
He doesn't.
Man, how are your lungs? Not well, I'll tell you. They're unwell.
Yeah. Jeez Louise. But so you're back in Nashville. Why are you back in Nashville?
Well, I haven't told anyone I'm back because I'm not back long enough to actually like
hang out with anyone. Yeah.
But sweet Astra.
I drug her to Las Vegas, you know, selfishly because I really wanted her there.
Yeah.
This is not an exaggeration.
The temperatures are in the hundreds, like 106, 107, like every day and at night it doesn't
even cool down.
Like at night I will take her on a walk at like 10 p.m. and it's like 98 degrees.
It's so fucking hot.
And she's just miserable, I feel bad for her.
So I decided to bring the little girl home
even though I'm gonna miss her so much.
I like that you are surprised that it's hot in the desert.
Okay, but like hundreds in May?
It just seems like a little early for that.
It's officially summer. summer I know but it's
May is very early in summer like May temps shouldn't be in the hundreds you know dude Vegas is
hot all the time I don't know how anyone lives there I don't either I did take a really great
picture though I'll send it to you okay that did I tell you guys last week that Astro's favorite
place to take a shit is in front of the Mormon temple? I love it
It's literally like the only place with grass like even my backyard
That's grass, but it's like not you know what I mean
And so Astra has decided that the only place to take a shit is the Mormon temple front yard
I just sent you the picture. We'll post it for the wipe tears. Okay. They do have nice grass. I gotta say
They got that good grass. They got that good shit. Do you pick it up or do you leave it there?
No, I picked it up. Now. That's good. You're a good Mormon girl
There's also there's one house on the street that has actual grass in the front yard only one and you know
They're Mormons obby like tell me you're a Mormon without telling me you're a Mormon.
Have grass in your yard living in Las Vegas.
They, the Mormons like the grass?
I guess because the temple is the only place with grass for hundreds of miles.
I'm sure there's some sort of like law that says like you can't water your lawn or you get fined and the Mormons are like we don't care.
They don't care. It's a church, right? They can't get fined. I don't know.
Churches get special privileges.
Yeah, but you're saying someone else's house has grass.
Yeah.
Maybe it's just like,
God has blessed the Mormons with grass.
You know, I don't know.
I don't think that could be possible.
Well, it's probably all the soaking
that that grass is doing.
That's true.
You're back in Nash for what, a day? You go back tomorrow?
Two days.
I have today and tomorrow home.
And then Wednesday morning, fly back, play show Wednesday night.
And then I'm really not coming back for three weeks.
I was on that golf trip with Ben Higgins and Joey Grazade and Grocery Store Joe and Zach
Clark.
Your tan is off the charts.
So good, right?
You are dark.
Yeah, I went full native. What's great about my being
Portuguese, any country I go to, they try to speak the native
language to me. Everyone thinks that I'm from that place.
You can be from anywhere.
Literally everywhere I go, they're like, that's gotta be he to me. Everyone thinks that I am from that place. You can be from anywhere.
Literally everywhere I go they're like, that's gotta be, he gotta be local, you know?
Gotta. Costa Rica, they would not stop trying to talk
to me in Spanish. And I was like, ah, lo siento. Mexico, same thing. Go to Portugal, go to
Spain, go to Italy. Everyone, France, everyone thinks that I'm native.
Italy? I look pretty Italian.
I know some pasty Italians though.
Yeah, but I'm a traditional Sicilian, Southern Italian.
And then when we went to Portugal, it was weird.
We went to this dinner.
My brother and myself went to this dinner.
And Brett and I look very, very similar
because we're siblings.
And our waiters looked exactly like us.
Our wives were like, this is fucking weird. It's just like a
country full of you people.
That's funny.
Yeah. What are you from?
I don't know.
What is your lineage?
I truly don't know. My mom was adopted. And I don't know my
biological father. So I don't know.
Dang. Have you done a 23andMe or an Ancestry.com?
No, I kinda don't care. Is that weird?
I mean, kinda. It's kinda fun to see.
The only thing that's annoying about mine is it's constantly changing.
Ah, well, what does that even mean?
I don't know. I think they're figuring stuff out.
But in the beginning I had a little bit of black in me,
and a little bit of like black in me and a little bit of
a little bit of Jewish in me and I was so pumped about both of those things.
Oh.
Oh.
You know?
And then come to find out, no.
How does it change?
See, to me this just all seems like a money grab.
I don't know.
Okay.
I'm 37% Portugal and you might be thinking, well, as you always say you're 50% Portuguese. You'd be right. Because I'm 13%
Spain. Ah, and the Canary Islands. So oh, yeah. And then
I got 25% England and Northwestern Europe. That's my
dad's side. I got 15% Scotland, which
is I'm so pumped about because Scotland was my favorite places
in the world that I got to go to recently. And then I'm 10%
Germanic Europe, which comes out to if you do the math, 5050,
right down the middle. But there you go. Okay. But yeah, no
longer. I don't I was really cool. And I was like, I'm a
little bit black. And I'm a little bit Jewish. And now I can't say it, you know.
I'll tell you why I think I was a little bit black. Please enlighten us. Well, because if you go back far enough, the Moors invaded Portugal and the Moors were from northern Africa and they came in and they took over Portugal and Spain and the Basque region and I think they
inner obviously they intermingled you know, I enact
prima noctua. So I think that's how I've got a little bit of
North African in me, which is exciting. So there you go. Yeah,
anyways, you should do it. It's fun. It's fun to know.
Here's the thing though. Once you do that, I just you know,
can people other people find you and they like yeah
I don't want I don't need that. I don't want that. I don't want anyone finding me. I don't need any relatives
I don't need anybody thinking they're related to me. You know, you know, I just gotta come for money. I
Don't think I need that. Yeah
Yeah, that's how they're catching a lot of these criminals these days. Oh
I definitely shouldn't do it, you know.
Yeah, you are.
Yeah, it's really true.
Nat and I came home.
When we woke up this morning,
the first thing we did was we went outside

is starting to really truly want to invest in yourself
and in your health.

and then all like Ben's like basically like his old buds.
And it was so- Did you win?
No, I didn't.
My team came in second.
I didn't play two rounds.
I played like crap one round.
I beat everyone I think except for one guy.
But I saw someone that Ben said that he beat me.
Yeah, he did beat me one time,
but he went on his podcast and said he beat,
yeah, but I beat you two of the three times.
What are we talking about here? But it was like the one time that we played like together
I guess so he's counting that but every time we played I was like an indie an indies like
when you're an individual match he's like yes yeah he owes me he lost two hundred dollars
to me and he's going on his podcast saying that he beat me. What? I don't understand.
So you have storytelling?
Totally. I'll tell you who played pretty good as Joey. He
beat me but he used a handicap system. So then he beat me on the
last hole. I thought I had him dead to rights and then I kind
of got drunk. You know how it goes.
I actually don't know what any of that means.
I got drunk and then sometimes when you get drunk, you don't play
sports. No, I know. Handicap and what was the other word? Had
him dead to rights? Yeah. Anyways, what's that mean? He had
no chance like it was over. Oh, I'm dead to rights. And then he
came back like a freaking vampire because he has one.
he came back like a freaking vampire. Because he has one.
Yeah, Ben just texted me.
More golf, we're going up to Maine in a couple weeks.
You ever been to Maine?
I've never been to Maine.
So I'm playing this golf.
I've been there once, I went to Bangor,
which is where Stephen King's from,
and I did like a speech there, like a meet and greet,
but it was wintertime and it was cold but I enjoyed it because
I'm a huge Stephen King fan as we all know. But now I'm going
in the summertime and I bet you it's gonna be absolutely
gorgeous.
It looks it I actually would love to go there someday.
I'm going to Portland or outside of Portland we're playing in
this golf tournament called Drive for Kids and you know who
it's put on by you're gonna love this. Tell. Dr. McDreamy. Really? That's right. He's gonna be there? He's gonna be there.
Wow. What's his name? What's his name? Patrick Dempsey. Patrick Dempsey, yes from You Can't Buy Me
Love. Oh and quote Grey's Anatomy. Yes I know that, that's why you would like it. So he's gonna be there.
I'd make a video for-
You know what I also love him in?
What's that?
Sweet Home Alabama.
Yeah, you love a rom-com.
I fucking love that one.
It's my favorite one, I think.
Even though I love him in that movie,
I was always, what's the other guy's name?
Josh Lucas.
I was always more of a Josh Lucas gal.
If I meet him, do you want me to tell them that you love him?
Sure. Okay. Yeah, I shall do that. Anyway, so if you're in
like around Portland, Maine between the dates of June 19th
through the 23rd, come hang out with us. It's going to be a
bunch of bachelor people me, Joey, Ben will be there.
And then there's like a bunch of like athletes
and actors and stuff that are gonna be there.
Like real celebrities, not like a bunch of reality idiots.
So yeah, anyways, I'm excited about it.
Okay, love that for you.
That's next weekend?
It's the 19th, the 23rd, so next week and a week after.
Yeah. Yeah. Cool. We're in the homest. So next week, a week after. Yeah.
Yeah. Cool. We're in the homestretch of Sarah's run here
on Broadway, getting into the point where like we have to go
see all the shows now that she hasn't gotten to see. So we're
gonna try to see Good Night, Good Luck, which George Clooney
won. We're gonna go see Cabaret because our friend Eva is on
that one. We're gonna go see Nick Jonas' show.
I don't know, there's so many of them, dude.
Wild.
Anyways, that's what's going on in my life.
Okay.
What's the craziest thing that's happened at The Spheres thus far?
Probably Dasha came out with me on Saturday night.
She was a little drunksy.
So I show up at the venue at like five, I would say.
My sound check is at 610 and then my set starts at 715.
So it's pretty like, I've got it dialed
and I've got like a routine
and I don't give myself like a lot of time in between,
just cause I'd rather just like get there and do it.
So I'm driving to the venue
and literally as I'm pulling up to the venue,
I'm watching Instagram stories
and I see Dasha partying with David Guetta at Live Beach Club.
And I texted her immediately and I was like,
oh my God, are you in Vegas?
Like, please come to the spirit tonight.
We'd love to see you.
And she was like, oh my God.
She was like, I have to catch a red eye tonight.
What time do you play?
Early, 7.15, plenty of time.
Like, let's go.
And she was like, okay, amazing.
She's like, I'm coming.
She was like, wait, should I come out on stage?
Abso-fucking-lutely, you should.
I was like, the problem is you're not gonna get a sound
check because it's happening in 30 minutes.
And that's probably not feasible, but it'll be fine.
Like she and I have done this a million times, you know?
Literally just like no prep.
We were running around while I was trying to get ready
cause I get hair and makeup ready before sound check
because I just don't have time after. So while I'm getting ready, my manager's running around trying to like tell everyone else
like, Hey, Dasha is coming. Like, can we get a set of ears? Can we get a pack? Can we get a mic?
Like, is this okay? Like, can we do this? Just like checking all of our boxes. And so just like all
happened really fast. And then she got there like right as I was getting on stage and then 30 minutes
into the set, like she came up and did it. and it was just all really, really insane and just chaotic, unplanned,
but it was super fun and people loved it obviously.
So that's probably the craziest thing that's happened.
That's awesome.
Yeah, it was cool.
All right, should we, you wanna start?
Oh yeah, we should.
Go for it.
I think it's me.
Bros and hoes, you're listening to your favorite thing podcast with?
Wells and Brandy-o. Bell. We got a bell. Got it back. So you're listening to your favorite thing podcast with well son brandy
Bell we got a bad got it back
So do you have faith things bro, bro, I cruised through sirens. Did you finish it? Yes. I did
What do you think at first? I wasn't sure like the first couple episodes. I was like, okay, like I love this cast
You know, like let's see and it seemed kind of slow But I loved the ending loved. Okay. So you haven't seen sirens. It's on Netflix
It's starring Megan Fahey
Megan Fahey and then the Millie Aikon the girl from Game of Thrones or like and Julianne Moore and yeah
Julianne Moore and and Kevin Bacon and Kevin Bacon and the guy from Always Sunny in
Philadelphia. Yeah, it's a stacked cast stacked cast. If
you haven't seen it, maybe fast forward a couple minutes because
I do want to talk about the end because Sarah said told me
something that I was like, Oh, that's so cool of an ending. I
didn't think about it that way.
Oh, okay. So yeah, spoiler alert. If you have not seen the
finale of sirens, fast forward
for a little bit.
We'll go two minutes now starting now.
Okay. Well, I loved the ending. I loved that Millie's character went so fast from like
victim to like, I'm turning the fucking tables and I'm taking this bitch down. Loved that.
And then afterwards I saw somebody on, I think TikTok say, because there were kind of a lot
of like things that were left untied,
you know, as far as there was this weird connection between
her dad and Julianne Moore's character, right? And like,
yeah, you could say that, you know, he's got dimension can't
remember. And for a minute, you think that he thinks Julianne
Moore is his wife, his ex wife, the one that killed herself. But
then somebody was saying that at one point,
his name is Bruce, I think,
Bruce looks at Julianne Moore and sees her as Michaela.
And no one ever talks about it again.
Like it's never brought up again, no one addresses it.
And you're kind of like, well, what,
what was the point of that, right?
So I saw a fan theory that said,
they actually think Bruce and Michaela were a thing
and that Millie is, Millie's character is their child. Did you see that? Yeah,
when he said it, he was like, we like to fuck and yeah, and he
was like, this is the reason why you hired her is because it's
your daughter, nobody ever addresses it. No one ever talks
about it. And that whole storyline with Bruce and
Michaela is just very like weird, like they give you just
enough for it to be something but they don't ever make
anything of it makes you wonder like, is there gonna be a season two or a limited series, like they give you just enough for it to be something but they don't ever make anything of it
and makes you wonder like, is there gonna be a season two or
I guess is limited series but it makes you feel like there's
more to the story.
The only thing I was disappointed by because I was
like, I thought there was gonna be cults. I thought that like,
there was gonna be a murder like there wasn't those things that
you that kind of walked in thinking you were gonna get.
Sarah said something that was like, oh, that's totally right.
So she was like, the ending is beautiful because the show is called Sirens and Sirens,
like a Siren song is, you know, like a mermaid that like lures
sailors off course and kills them and she was like, yeah, it's like an allegory for
women always being
the reason why it's men's downfall,
but the truth of the matter is it's the men
who are making the bad decisions
and has nothing to do with the women,
which is exactly what happens with.
Right.
So I was like, oh my God, you're right.
That's such a good way of thinking about it.
And you're smarter than me.
And I was just mad that there wasn't a cult.
You know, in the first couple episodes,
it was very heavily centered around like the birds
and the birds were very creepy
and she was very creepy with all the,
and then like they just never,
they just went away and you never heard about them again.
Like, I don't know.
There was a lot of things that I felt like,
I think this could have been an eight episode series
and they could have done more with it, right?
Like-
Yeah, and then like when Ethan falls off the cliff
and then he wakes up in the hospital, he's like,
"'You pushed me, I saw your wings." And I was like, "'Oh my god. Is she like a devil like a demon? What's happening here?
But yeah, it just seems like there could have been more but I did I did like it and I liked the ending a lot
I loved that she took over the new Kiki the new Kiki. Hey, hey
Hey, hey, very good show. I got a feeling they're gonna do a season two. There's you know, yeah
First of all, I think we did really well. And
so Netflix is like, this is good. We got to do another one.
They'll the writers will figure it out, you know. But I do think
there's a lot of questions unknown. Yeah.
All right, wipe tears. I don't know about you guys. But for me,
I feel like when I'm shopping, things have just gotten so
freaking expensive. So when I want new clothes, it's really
hard to justify like going out there and spending all this money just to get some quality pieces. Then I discovered Quince. If
you guys are not familiar with Quince, they are an online store that offers great quality pieces
at a fraction of the price. Recently, they launched some European linen pieces. I got the linen shorts
and actually a dress also. Such a good price point, but the quality is incredible. I got the linen shorts and actually a dress also such a good price point but
the quality is incredible. I also have a ton of other items from quince that I'm obsessed with
including luggage, home decor, they have sheets, they've got everything you could want.

There's another show on prime called the better sister.
Is it a show or a movie?
It's a show.
Oh, okay.
And it is fan-tastic.
Who's in this one?
Two big names, right? Elizabeth Banks.
That's right.
And Jessica Beale.
Yep, I was thinking it was a movie for some reason.
It's a murder mystery.
Chloe navigates life with husband Adam and son Ethan
while her sister Nikki battles addiction.
Adam's murder unveils long hidden family secrets
shaking their world.
The better sister.
So Jessica Beale's character is married to Adam who is played by Corey stole. He's in so much stuff.
And the first episode he gets murdered. She comes home from a
party and sees him like dead on the ground and she like you know,
is in this white dress and so she like tries to, you know,
revive him or whatever calls 911 and then she gets she gets blood
all over her so she looks very kind of guilty, right? So then they
start an investigation. The lead detective is her name is Nancy,
but the actress is Kim Dickens, who is the lead detective in
Gone Girl. So it's like, she's like kind of southern and yeah,
so she's got this son and this the son's alibi is not really
working out or like you're trying to figure out who who
could have done this? Why could this have happened? And so they
end up calling Jessica Biel sister in because the truth of
the matter is, is that the son Ethan's real mom is the sister
and the sister was married to the husband and then she kind of
went off the deep end and he left her and then married the sister. And so it's
real murky and muddy and there's a lot of burner phones being
thrown out and there's a knife in a club box that you're
confused about and he's got shady business dealings going
on. He's a lawyer and she was like this high powered magazine
editor-in-chief. Anyways, I haven't finished it but it's damn good. How far
in are you? I'm like maybe two episodes in. Oh, that's it? Yeah. Yeah, I just kind of
told you like the first episode stuff. I'm telling you like if you like sirens
just go get into this one. Alright. I, I've been I when I saw a preview for it or something and I
was like, yes. Yeah. So, okay, cool. Matt and I started we didn't finish it the new there's this
new Guy Ritchie movie on I think it's Apple TV. Do you know about this? No, I've been watching
Mobland, which is the new Guy Ritchie. Oh, we haven't we haven't finished that yet. This one's
called like Fountain of Youth or something. It's with John Krasinski and Natalie Portman.
Two estranged siblings join forces
to seek the legendary Fountain of Youth.
Using historical clues, they embark on an epic quest
filled with adventure.
If successful, the mythical fountain
could grant them immortality.
Fountain of Youth, directed by Guy Ritchie
on Apple TV plus so is it kind of like Indiana Jones?
I mean, kind of to be honest, I don't love it. Oh, no, I don't
love it. And we were both like exhausted last night. And so we
watched an hour of it and then we turned it off. We're gonna
watch the rest tonight. But like even just watching the trailer,
like we kind of looked at each other and we were like,
Guy Ritchie's sick, like Natalie Portman's sick.
Like it's all like teed up to be great.
And then we watched the trailer and we were like,
just me or does this seem cheesy as fuck?
No, this sounds, this seems very cheesy.
And I was like, but I guess we like give it a shot, right?
Some of the writing is just really not good.
I don't love it.
Well, it wasn't written by Guy Ritchie, just directed.
That's probably why. Right.
Yeah. Yeah.
But we'll finish it and I'll let you know, but.
It's all my list of things I wanna watch
as I look at it now.
So now I might not do it.
Yeah, I don't know.
It's not great.
I started watching a show that I really like called Department Q. I don't even know what that is. It's not great. I started watching a show that I really like
called Department Q.
I don't even know what that is.
It's on Netflix.
It's like one of the top two things on Netflix right now.
It just came out a couple of days ago.
Carl, great name, Carl, a former top rated detective
is wracked with guilt following an attack
that left his partner paralyzed and another policeman dead.
On his return to work, Carl is assigned to a cold case that will consume his life.
Department Q. Not All Causes Are Lost, a Netflix series. It's British. So Matthew Good is the main
guy. There's a lot of actors in here that you are gonna be like,
oh yeah, I know who that is, but I don't know his name
because they're British actors.
So it is a fun, cold case, murder, crime, drama situation
that's happening on Netflix.
And it's very good.
I think the YFTTS are gonna like it.
Okay, amazing. We love that.
It's not out yet, but I want to see the new Wes Anderson film with like Michael Cera and Tom Hanks.
What's it called?
The Phoenician Scheme. I don't know how he gets all these actors to be in his movies.
I gotta be honest with you.
I know.
It's ridiculous. Benicio del Toro.
Wow. honest with you. It's ridiculous. Benicio del Toro, Wow, Michael Cera, Tom Hanks, Willem Dafoe. It's crazy good
casting wealthy businessman Zaza Korda appoints his only
daughter, a nun as sole heir to his estate. As Korda embarks on
a new enterprise, they soon become the target of scheming tycoons,
foreign terrorists and determined assassins. The
Phoenician scheme written and directed by Wes Anderson, and
also Roman Coppola wrote it. So I assume that's one of the
Coppola's. So yeah, I'm gonna watch that. Yeah, Brian
Cranston's in it. I'm getting Scarlett Johansson's in it. I'm gonna watch that. Yeah, Bryan Cranston's in it. Freaking Scarlett Johansson's in it.
I'm gonna go see it Friday probably.
Sick. Okay.
Well, my sister put out an album.
She did? Last week.
Yeah.
I would play it, but we keep getting flagged by Spotify.
I know.
We can't play it, but the album is called Something Beautiful
and it's also a film that,
God, I should really know the details of this.
I think it's getting like a very limited theatrical release, like one day only.
It's going to play in certain theaters.
I would like to think it's going to come out somewhere for everyone to see, but it's sickening.
I went to LA for one day last week and we got to see a private screening of it.
I believe the premiere is this weekend
at Tribeca Film Festival.
And then I think the following week
is when the theatrical release happens or whatnot.
I'm sure with it just being a one day only thing,
tickets are probably pretty hard to get.
Maybe give it a Google and try to get into it.
It's pretty cool.
It's essentially like a visual album.
Each scene is a song, right?
And it's, you know, the whole album front
to back. Very cool. We don't want to play it, but I think my favorite song on the album
is Easy Lover, which is the new single that came out. But my other favorite song on it,
which is kind of a wild card choice is Pretend You're God. It's very sad. We love sad music.
And this is Miley. You just said your sister, so.
Oh, sorry, yeah, Miley.
I'll give it a listen.
It actually, my phone notified me that Miley had,
I don't know why that's happening, but.
You know, they just know that you needed to know that.
Spotify sent me a notification,
it was like, just so you know,
Miley's got a new record out.
I'm like, what?
Okay, they don't do that for any other artists.
I mean, I guess we probably do play a lot of Miley on the show. And so
maybe that's why Spotify is like, this guy's a huge fan. He
needs to know. He needs to know. He needs to know now. I started
show that I thought was new, but I don't think it is. I think it
came out in 2023. It's called a small light. Have you seen this?
I don't think so.
Follows the remarkable story of a Dutch woman who risked her life to shelter Anne Frank's family from the Nazis for more than two years during World War II.
A Small Light, limited series.
Yeah, she's like the girl that like basically saved Anne Frank and then like was one who found like the diary and everything and all that stuff. So if you're
like a history buff, pretty interesting stuff.
Okay. Matt watched a documentary. I think it was a
documentary about Osama bin Laden.
Oh, yeah, that's huge on Netflix right now.
Yeah, I didn't want to watch it. But he watched it yesterday. I
think he liked it. I don't know.
What's it called?
Pretty sure Osama Bin Laden's
in the title. American Manhunt, Osama Bin Laden. Yep. I want to watch this. Follows an in-depth
look at how the world mobilized to hunt down Osama Bin Laden after his orchestrations of September September 11th 2001 attacks on the United States
American manhunt Osama bin Laden on Netflix. Yeah, I want to watch that. That looks pretty good also terrifying
Yeah, did you know that that would never happen again a hijacking of an airplane to us after?
9-eleven but it's
definitely was a possibility before
because the old stance was when any time a plane
was hijacked, it was just do what they wanna do
and just try to get them to land
and then we'll figure it out later.
Never thinking that, well, what if the thing
that they wanna do is to use it as a weapon, like a bomb.
And so the second they did that, they made the rule
that no pilot will ever give up the cockpit
again, so it'll never happen. I mean, hopefully it never happens
again. But isn't that crazy is that no one had the foresight to
be like, Yeah, but what if they take it over and then they crash
it into shit? Because that's crazy. That's crazy, right? But
not really, because they had kamikaze pilots in World War Two.
I know.
As I am at the top of a building in New York City right now.
Yep.
Terrifying.
It is.
Can't believe it, I have not found time
to watch the finale of Handmaid's Tale,
but I'm gonna do that tonight.
Oh, I know.
I saw that that's over, and I thought for sure
you were gonna give me a whole thing.
Matt won't watch it, so I gotta find a frickinicking window, you know, where he's busy or whatever.
But I'm gonna make him let me watch it tonight.
Why don't you just put it on?
He complains or he watches videos on his phone while I'm trying to watch TV.
Do you have an iPad?
Yeah.
So Sarah does is she just puts on those headphones that you got on and she just
watches.
I want to watch it on the TV. It's not the same on the iPad.
Okay, but you know that you can connect your headphones to the TV.
Yeah, I could do that. It's not the same.
And then you don't have to listen to his...
Or he could wear headphones. That would be the nice thing.
Give him the headphones.
I'll let you know how that goes.
I do. I want to watch Handmaid's Tale finale.
I also, I think Thursday, it comes out the next season of Jenny and Georgia.
It's been like two fucking years since we had that show.
I'm like, I don't even remember what happened, but I do know that I love it.
So that's exciting.
Also, the F1 movie with Brad Pitt is about to come out.
And I'm going to go see that in the theater.
Looks good.
By the way, I'm still reading The Stand by Stephen King.
It is so freaking good.
But then I started watching the show.
Remember I told you I'm gonna watch the show?
And the show caught up to where I was in the book
too quickly and then I had to be like,
okay, I can't watch that
because it's now spoiling stuff for me.
If you want to relive the fun that was COVID, read
this book. What's crazy is that he wrote it in like the 80s. And
it's like very similar to what happened. That is crazy. The
government was fucking around with dirty biological weapons,
and it somehow got out. Now in the book, it happens like a
like, it's like Americans that do it. Obviously maybe someone in Wuhan, China did it,
I'm not really sure.
And then like the fallout,
but then it's also like kind of biblical.
It's like this fight between good and evil.
There's only a few people left really on earth
and it's like this epic battle of good versus evil. Anyways, it's so freaking good and the
show is amazing. By the way, do the cast I don't know how I
missed this. What network is it on Paramount Plus? Okay,
listen to this cast whoopie Goldberg Alexander scars guard.
James Marsden, Amber Heard, what?
Greg Kinnear.
Greg Kinnear?
Yeah, Kinnear, whatever.
That's a stacked cast.
Dude, I know when I, keep me out in 2023,
I'm like, what was I doing that I missed this?
Well, you weren't the only one,
I don't think anyone saw it, right?
Well, now's the time, ghost watch the stand.
It's so good.
So good.
And also, it's pretty close to the book.
I was watching it and I was like,
eh, it's pretty good.
I mean, they speed it up, you know.
I do feel like Stephen King stories
that get translated to TV are usually pretty good.
Remember, was it Outsider?
I loved that show.
Did you read
the book though? No, but I'm just saying the shows translate
the shows are great. Oh, I know. All of his shit was in that
one. I know. Yeah. I also like love Dr. Sleep. That was a great
follow up to The Shining 112263. I didn't watch that. But I
remember you talking about it. It's so good.
Watch the stand, then watch 11, 22, 63 with James Franco.
It's a it's a time travel one where I have seen that.
I think. Yeah.
He finds a time portal and he decides to go back to 1963 to stop the assassination of JFK
because he thinks that'll make the world better.
And then I do think I've seen that.
Yeah, it's so good. Fantastic. Yeah. Okay. But yeah, anyways, I
won't have a new book recommendation for a while
because Stephen King books are so long, dude. It's fucking
they are long, insanely in love with this book and going on my
runs and going my walks every single day. I still have like
27 hours left. Geez.
Crazy time. Anyways.
Crazy.
That's all I got for you guys.
That's all I got.
All right. Well, back to Vegas, to the Sphere for you.
Back, back to Vegas Wednesday.
Do you have anything planned after Vegas?
You mean after the Sphere shows?
Yeah.
Yeah. I go straight from Vegas.
This actually isn't even announced yet, but I'm going to tell you anyway. I go straight from Vegas. This actually isn't even announced yet,
but I'm gonna tell you anyway.
I go straight from Vegas, the last Vegas show.
I go straight to Michigan for Electric Forest.
I'm playing the Sunday night, late night,
at Electric Forest.
And then I come home for a couple of days.
And then I go back to Vegas.
I play Encore Beach Club on July 4th.
And then I go to to Vegas. I play Encore Beach Club on July 4th. And then I go to Calgary and I play Calgary Stampede
on July 7th.
Come home for two days.
And then I'm playing three shows that following weekend
in El Paso, Texas.
And then Belmar, New Jersey, and then Fire Island,
New York, Fire Island.
So like somewhere up there.
And then I finally get a little break
and then I'm going on a little vacation.
Very cool.
Out in the west Texas town of El Paso,
I fell in love with a Mexican girl.
The only time I've been to El Paso
is when I drove from Nashville to LA
when I was 20 years old.
And I just remember it,
I didn't ever want to go back there. Yeah, there's not much going on in El Paso. I think that's why it's called El Paso because you just pass it on by.
They've got a new day club apparently that's that's poppin and they put they
booked electronic music and I'm going. Alright. Hot Tide of Pine it says roses cantina. All right, YFTers, we love you.
Love you guys. See ya. See ya on another time. Later.
