Your Favorite Thing with Wells & Brandi - It's Gut Check Time

Episode Date: February 4, 2026

Question for the YFT’ers: how many TSA pre-check programs does one human really need, and for the love of God, when will the day come that we can keep our shoes on?? Oh, and Brandi is back! She survived Nashville’s winter storm — three days without power, a house at 41 degrees, and two generators courtesy of hero Matt. All farm animals accounted for. Whew.

Your duo talks Grammys fashion, debates whether anyone still cares about award shows, and rolls through fave things: Traitors drama, His & Hers, Bridgerton, Tell Me Lies, Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Only The Brave, and The Pitt. Plus a new society rule — once you hit 70, no more commenting on social media (hi mom!) — and Wells vows to stay out of trouble and send more flowers.

This podcast is brought to you by Podcast Nation. Good morning, YFTers, or if it's afternoon, good afternoon, if it's evening, good evening. My name's Wells Adams, and I'm very tired right now. I was on a flight last night from Orlando, Orlando, Orlando, up to New York, and Orlando Airport was a absolute nightmare. Never seen so many people in one place with my entire life. And they were all at Gate 58 in Orlando. Way too many people there hated it.

Do you guys pay for TSA pre-check and then clear? I know I do. And then now there's a new one called like TSA pre-check face identification. Are we just making stuff up now? How many of these things do I got to buy? So I don't have to take my shoes off. The lengths that I will go to to not take my shoes off is pretty wild. That's what it means to be an American.

Because I'm proud to be an American What I don't take off my shoes Uh anyways I'll tell Brandy when she gets here All about my exploits in Orlando And uh how we did in the golf tourney Supporting the LPGA Should we do it?

Should we call the Branzino? Let's do it. Bing bong boom Dillilloo ding dung-dum Hey How you doing? I'm doing What's going on?

You're still out of power? No, thank God, or we wouldn't be podcasting. Okay. Have you seen the footage of Nashville? And my sister lives there. They still have power. They have power? They don't.

They don't? No, they went to Swanee. Oh, why there? Swanee has power. I've been there one time. I don't need to go back. That's fucking crazy, you guys. Is no one talking about the storm in the news?

Like, I feel like no one knows about this. Yeah, I feel like there's some other things going on in the country right now. I mean, there are. but this is really bad. They declared us in a state of emergency like before it even started. They knew it was going to be bad. And I've lived here, well, I grew up in Tennessee.

I've been here most of my life and I've been in this house for, what, six years? And I've been through some snow. Never have I been through anything like this. We lost power. It was fucking freezing. And if the farm doesn't get hard enough when it's fucking cold, when you don't have electricity and you're doing everything in the dark and all the water's frozen.

Let me tell you what, it's a lot harder. And then you have to be down there doing hours more work to get all the horse's water. And then you can't even come up to the house and get warm. Our house was it 41 degrees when the power finally came back on. Do you have like a gas fireplace? Doesn't work. Didn't work. Something's wrong with it.

Of course. Classic. Matt tried to turn it on. And it was like, it would like stay on for like two minutes and then it would just trip off. Like it was like a weird like it seemed like it was like a safety. thing or something. And we just, he could not be Googled it. And apparently it means something. There's like a part that's fucked. And of course, like no gas fireplace. Thank God. I've never owned a generator, mostly because first of all, they're so heavy. You ever try to lift a generator? I would never be able to do that. Definitely wouldn't know how to hook it up and turn it on. But Matt, my little survivalist is good with that stuff. So the day before the storm, of course, we wait to the last minute. But the day before we're like, we should get some generators. Like what if it's as bad as they say? good luck getting a generator in this fucking radius in the 500 mile radius all sold out everywhere. And if they're not sold out and expecting a shipment, people are already lining up.

I'm talking hundreds of people lining down the streets in 20 degree weather, hoping to get a generator. So Matt called around the morning it started. Start snowing whatever morning. Friday morning. Matt drives to Fairview because tractor supply is supposedly getting a shipment of generators. And all over town, they're doing this rule where you can only have one, which I get. But we need to tell anyone for the animals, we need one for us. And I told Matt, if we only get one, guess what?

The animals get it. So he was super motivated to get to. So he goes to Fairview. He's so fucking smart. He walks around to the back of the store where they're unloading the generators from the truck. And he just takes two. And then he goes in from the back to the register. And he said people are literally looking at him like they want to fucking rip him to pieces.

Like everyone is pissed because they've been waiting in line out front. But it's Matt. And he's seven feet tall. and no one's going to fuck with him. So he was like getting dirty looks, but nobody said anything. And then he went to the register, paid for both and walked right out.

And so thank God we had generators, but they were, they're small. Like they don't run the whole house. You know, you can plug like four things in. So thankfully we had a space heater plugged in into our bedroom.

So our bedroom stayed. Honestly, it had trouble staying warm though. I don't think it ever got above 62. Was like the warmest it would stay. But compared to 41, I'll fucking take it, you know? So we had like that one lamp, a phone charger, and I think that was it plugged in.

Every now and then I would plug in my little toaster oven to make some food. We do have a gas stove, so that was helpful because we were still able to cook. But it felt like I was on some crazy survival show. I guess not alone because I didn't sleep outside, but it was rough. And we didn't have power for, I think, three days. It was so hard with the horses. We had the generator down there. We had one bucket per horse plugged into the generator.

But every time we went down, we were in the dark. And then it's just so icy. Like you can't let the horses outside. They're all going stir crazy. And it's still icy. Like nothing's melted because it hasn't gotten above freezing. Thank God we have power, though. I cannot imagine these people that have gone this long with no power.

It hasn't gotten above freezing. How are people living? What is the communal response to NES, the Nashville Electric Service? Oh, people are ready to fucking rip them to shreds. They're all like, guess who? guess who picks NES, the mayor? Let's remember this next time there's an election. Fuck the mayor. Get him out of like, but it is kind of crazy. Like it is kind of insane. Like Franklin, we had more outages, I think, in Franklin than Nashville. And Franklin got their shit together in three days. Really? Why is Nashville taking so long? I don't understand. Bigger. They probably have less trucks to go out and fix, I guess. I don't know. I don't know. I've been hearing some crazy rumors where like people are coming in from out of state to help and they're turning the help away. and like crazy shit. I don't know.

I've heard some things, but praise God that I live in the zip code and that I have power back because I don't think we could have stayed here, but we had to stay here because of the animals. Like, I can't just leave them, you know? But it literally got to the point where, because we couldn't even shower here,

it was just too cold in the bathroom. And yeah, I just could not have stayed. Like the people that have stuck it out and stayed in their houses with no power this long, God bless. You guys deserve all the awards. You guys should probably go on that alone show because he'd probably win.

Like, it's just, I can't imagine. Oh, I'm so sorry. Yeah, it looks like it sucks. You know, we as a country are bad at dealing with national disasters. Really bad. Like, we don't, we can't figure it out. It's always effed. Nashville, like, yes, we don't get a ton of snow and ice.

But when we get it, it's bad. And we get it enough that the freaking city needs to be prepped. I'm sorry. Like, we need to be prepped, you know? Did we need a new football stadium? I don't think so. I think we could have allocated that money to storm prep. Civil engineering. Having power lines up in the air, I think, is so dumb. I don't know why we all

thought, you know what, let's just cut down big trees and put them on the trees because when it snows or gets heavy or trees fall, power goes down. Put in a pipe. What's going on? You know who's got it in a pipe? Who? Washington, D.C. is the one city. Of course they do. All electricity is underground. Yep. Yep. Typical. That's crazy. All those stupid. Politicians. Have you seen all the conspiracies about the snow? No, tell me. People are testing the snow and it's full of all this toxic shit. And people, you know, people, you know, there's theories that the government controls the weather.

Do you know about this? Yeah. And that's not true because the government can control anything. But people are now, they're like testing the snow and they're like, the snow is full of all this toxic shit. They dumped this snow on us. The government did this to us. There's a whole conspiracy about it. I thought you'd love it. Well, I think probably the toxins are all of the toxins that we're just putting into the atmosphere. And then that's why it's coming down.

I don't know if the government, how does it behoove the government to fuck over it's to make them angry? I don't know. I mean, I guess it's a distraction from the Epstein files. Other than that, I don't know. And that's just. Have you seen any of that? Matt shows me stuff every now and then. But it's so sad.

Like, I can't. I can't. It's messed up, dude. messed up. But I'm not surprised. Are you? No. What really frustrates me is, like I talked a little bit about this last week when you were gone. There's nothing worse than being talked to like you're a stupid person. And I feel like that's what our government does to us. They're like, they're stupid. They don't care. They won't believe this or whatever. We can, we can. And it's like, well, hold on, hold on. I don't care whether you're on the right or the left. I don't care. If you are having

sex with kids and like involved in trafficking of women and stuff, you guys all need to go to jail immediately. Everyone needs to go to jail if you did this. It is pretty funny to see the Elon Musk's email? No. Okay, so do you remember Elon Musk when he had a following out with Donald Trump? He like went and was like, you know he's on the Epstein list. Well, guess who also is on it?

Elon Musk. And he sent this email to Epstein being like, man, I can't. wait, I want to come one of these parties. I'm on the island. I've heard they're amazing. I've like completely blocked out the month. So just let me know when I can fly in. Epstein's responses like to his assistant being like deal with him. And then the assistant's like, sorry, Elon.

We're no longer doing the parties on little St. John's Island. And it was like they're kind of just like you're annoying. You're like this dork that like we don't want you to hang be hanging out with us. And it was just so funny. It's like people being, anyone who said so and so is on. the list. They're also on the list. Everyone's on the list. Yeah, fuck. It's so crazy. Every time I turn on the news, it's like the entire East Coast is fucked. Everyone in Minnesota is still angry, you know? Oh yeah. California burned down last

year. I know. I know. We're trying to buy Greenland? What? Why don't we want Greenland? Why do we? Because there's oil there. I guess, yeah. And that's why we did. And that's why we did the things of Venezuela other than like whatever bad president or dictator whatever but like we're like just taking their oil anyways this is not a political podcast I have to cut a lot of this okay well my fucking sister yeah texted me yesterday and was like so how is Nashville is it still frozen and I was like yep frozen and miserable and she sends me a picture of her backyard and she's like oh it's 85 and sunny here it's such a joy and I was like did we did you need to tell me that I don't think so yeah because you know what I've been saying this for you

years, Brandy. If you lived in Los Angeles, we could do the show in Los Angeles. I would have to deal with fires like you guys have to deal with. Fair enough, but not this year. You can't go anywhere where you don't deal with any natural shit. Like Matt was like, where can we go? There's no anything. I'm like literally nowhere. If you go out west, there's fires. If you go to the Florida, there's hurricanes. If you go to freaking Oklahoma and Texas, there's tornadoes. Like, you can't escape it. Yeah. The moon? Mars?

Listen, I'm, you know me. I'm down with space. I know. Let's get to space. I'm in space. Immediately. Well, so when did you get power back? My sense of time is really, I just don't know. Like, when did all this begin is the question? So we were supposed to record last Monday.

So I think Friday night is maybe when it all started. And we didn't have power Saturday, Sunday, Monday. and then we got power back Tuesday afternoon. Almost a week. We've had power back for almost a week, but it's still been gnarly because everything's just like, my driveway is still frozen. I'm still parked at the bottom and going up and down and the side by side.

All my horses just got to go out 24-7 starting yesterday because of all the ice in the fields. And not to mention like the cleanup here is going to take a month. Like it's bad. We have so many trees down, fences, broken, limbs everywhere. all of her Nashville. We drove downtown yesterday for the first time

and even just Hillsborough Road like going into Green Hills like all the trees along the road are just fucking down like it looks like a tornado came through honestly and just bulldozed all the trees.

It's so sad. A lot of Nashville looks really bad. Dang, dude. Sad. No prayers to Nashville. I know. Volunteer state. Should we show up the show?

So you know what else I've been dealing with? Tell me. Okay. So I know I've been super. transparent with everybody about just like, I hate to say health issues because I'm very grateful to be like a relatively healthy person. Okay. I'm not trying to be all like doomsday. But my health issues. Like I was sick all year last year. You guys, you know, Wells was the one to point that out. And I've just not been feeling good. And I've been trying to figure out like my blood work and I did all my blood work. And my blood work wasn't that bad. You guys, I did a gut test. The results are not good. What did it come out as? I have severe leaky gut, like severe. And it also, the test was so crazy. It was just so much information to read through.

It was very extensive. And there's just a lot more to it. But like the big takeaway was like severe leaky gut. And there was also just an entire section about basically like my immune system in my gut. Like I guess a lot of your immune system is in your gut and like has to do with your gut balance. And mine is fucked. So at least we know the answer. At least we know why I keep getting.

sick, but I'm super overwhelmed. And I've just for the past three days, just been trying to, like, come up with some sort of meal plan and change my diet because that's always been my problem. It's not that I, if anything, I under eat because I get busy and I get stressed and then I don't eat or, like, I'm so picky about food that if I don't have something I like, I just don't eat at all, which is terrible. Or if I try to eat something healthy, I'll take like three bites and then be like, I'm good, you know? So I'm under eating, which is terrible. And I think, like, traveling. We've talked about this before. It is fucking impossible to eat healthy. Even if you think you're eating something healthy, it was probably cooked in seed oils and a bunch of other shit. Even at like flower child, my favorite restaurant. Like you go in there and you order salmon and broccoli and vegetables and you think, oh, this is so healthy. They cook it in grape seed oil. Like it's so frustrating. It's impossible to eat healthy. And I'm traveling so much that I think the problem is even though I'm making like quote unquote healthy choices at places, it's just not healthy because it's cooked in a restaurant. And it seems like it's impossible. to eat well unless you're cooking it at home.

Do it tell you what you should be eating since you've got this leaky gut? Yeah, so basically I have to do this whole gut recovery protocol. My sister helps me come up with this. She's so good with this stuff. And surprisingly, it's foods that I would not have thought I should be eating. Like a lot of it is stuff I already eat, to be honest. Like white rice, white potatoes are like really good because there's something about resistant starch that's good for your gut. They don't want you to eat any raw vegetables, only cooked ones and only cooked ones.

very specific ones. Like broccoli, I guess, is really hard on your gut. Carrots are good for it. Zucchini is good for it. I don't really like a zucchini, but a lot of fruits, blueberries, raspberries, which I don't like either one of those, but I've been forcing myself to eat them. Yogurt, oatmeal, which I love. Like, just, I think a lot of like really bland foods and they want it to be very simple without any, no dressings, no any, unless you're going to use olive oil, they don't want you to cook it in anything. Very plain, just simple food. And I'm supposed to just do that. I don't even fucking. I don't even fucking know for how long. That sucks, dude. Awful. It's so hard. Restrict gluten. Yeah. My nightmare. I love gluten. I know, but gluten doesn't love you. I don't think it does.

That's the thing. So I'm in just hell over here trying to figure out how to eat right. It's terrible. Yeah. Man, you're freezing and you're eating bland. Eating fucking raspberries that I don't even like. Who doesn't like raspberries? What are you? It's the texture and they're just so tart. Yeah, blueberries are great too. They're too tart. You got to let them ripen up a little bit more. Also, I don't like how smushy they are.

Why don't you throw them in a blender? Yeah, here's the thing, Miley and I talked about this. Smoothies are so good for us. But you know why I don't make smoothies? Why? Because I hate cleaning up after them. The cleanup after a smoothie is insane. Yeah.

Why don't you batch them out, like make a bunch of them at one time? That's probably a good idea. Yeah, and then you could probably put them in the freezer and then you could save them for later, too. That's true. Maybe I'll try that. That's a good option. Yeah, all right. We solved it. Well, I don't know what solved it, but anyway, yeah, that's what I'm dealing with. But I just thought the wife's tears, you know, since they, I get a lot of comments from them, like when we talk about my health and how I'm always sick. And they're like, girl, are you okay? Well, guys, I figured out the problem.

So at least we, you know, we have something we can work on here. So I'm going to be doing that. Also, it said not to drink coffee, but come on. Come on. I have, I'm very proud. Usually, like, I make it first thing in the morning. And before I do anything, I have coffee on an empty stomach, which is, I guess, the problem. And I've been really good.

I've had a few bites of oatmeal and waited, like, 30 minutes before I'm making my coffee every day. How long until you just give up and say, I'm just going to be sick, I can't live this life? Oh, I'm sure very soon. Yeah. Yeah, very soon. The minute I have to get on a plane, like, it's over. But will they say that, like, if you do this for, like, six months, you're, stomach will heal and your gut will go back to how it's supposed to be.

No one will give me a timeline, which is annoying. But yeah, I think the concept is do this for a while, let your gut heal. And then once it's working properly, then it can digest all the other foods better, I guess, because it's so shit right now. It's just not digesting the food right because it's so irritated. So I guess like the idea is to heal it. And then I don't have to like not eat gluten forever, you know? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Woosh. Getting old, man, sucks. It does. You know, I don't know any 22-year-olds with leaky gut, do you? No. They're out drinking 17 Red Bull Vodkeys and Taco Bell at 3 in the morning and waking up and going to class and down and have no problems. Remember those days? Those were great days.

They were great days. And, you know, I took them for granted then. Yep, the Halcyon days. If you're in that place right now, if you are under 30, just relish it. Relish it. It will never be as good. Not well. Well, I was in Orlando.

It looked very nice. It was gold. It was cold. You were wearing like t-shirts. No. The last day was very, very cold. But I went out there and I played way too much golf. But I'm sad to say we did not make our goal of top 10.

I ended up at 21st place. But I fought out there real hard and maybe the most important thing is that did I beat Ben Higgins and Joey Grazadee? Yes, I did. Wow. And Robbie Amel. So that was nice. Okay. Good job.

Orlando was great. It was a lot of fun. It was fun playing alongside those LPGA players. They are so freaking good. And yeah, I got a lot of content for the golf podcast show. Oh, we love that. Yeah. And we saw Ella Langley perform.

Fantastic. Love her. Obsessed. It's super hot too Yeah, she's gorge I like her a lot And she like knows what she's doing We went down to the pit

Yeah. I can't believe they're still giving out awards for Best Music Video. That's crazy. Well, I'm sorry I missed it. I was at it last year. I was at it year before last. I love the Grammys. They're a fun one.

Kind of feels like there's like no rules, you know? Yeah. But I don't know if anyone cares about them anymore. I know. Does anyone care about any award shows anymore? I don't think so. I think people are so just tired of celebrities. I know.

I think so too. Winning things. They're like, okay, great. We're freezing over here in Nashville. Seriously. Yeah. How's New York? I just got here.

It's also freezing here, but the power is working. So. That's good. I was supposed to go last week and I had to cancel my, I had to bail on my gig because I was. I couldn't leave. Like they weren't, you weren't flying out?

I mean, I don't know if the flights were going out, but I was supposed to leave like the day after it all went to hell. And I just couldn't leave the farm like the farm was still in. I was supposed to leave Tuesday morning,

I guess. And we still didn't have power. And I was like, I just can't fucking leave the farm like this. As much as I would have loved to gotten out of here, I just couldn't do it. I felt bad. You know,

it's a lot to put on somebody. It's like a lot in general, but. Yeah, so I couldn't go. Sad. Well, you've had a lot of time to be at home to watch things. Do you have any favorite things, bro? True.

Well, are we going to talk about traders at all? I haven't caught up yet. Oh, my God, but you know. You know who's who, you know which traitor they got out. I assume they got Lisa. Oh, R.P. My favorite trader of all time, even though she wasn't a very good one. So we can't talk about it.

Tell me all about it. I just love Lisa Renna so much. I will miss her fashion. I really wish. Lisa had just been more herself from the beginning because I feel like she could have gone all the way if she hadn't played it safe. I feel like she felt like she was playing it safe by being more quiet and reserved and ended up biting her in the ass and that's kind of like why people were calling her out. But you know, they did this like dinner party and they made they had them do

this like murder in plain sight where Lisa had to wear this brooch and that whole thing was this one touch. Why did Lisa have to wear it? Lisa already had a target on her back. I know, but they had to had chosen that the night before in the turret. And Rob was like, well, I don't think I can wear it. I'm not sure if it would be something that I would normally wear. And Lisa's like, it's perfect for me. And so she- I know, but she shouldn't have done that.

Candace should have worn it. It would have been less obvious, I think. Because Lisa already had that target on her back. It made everybody, I think, more suspicious of her. And I don't know. I just feel like that was such a bad move. Was she able to get somebody to touch it? Yeah, she did.

And what's crazy is it was Jam. Jam? Is that how they say it? I feel like everyone says it different. That's who she got out. And what's crazy is he was convinced that it was the kiss on the cheek that was what got him. Like he was like, she kissed me on the cheek. It was Lisa as he was leaving.

And it's like, that wasn't even it. And if I was Lisa, when I got voted out, I would have been like, and it wasn't even the fucking kiss. You know what I mean? Like the frustrating thing is she got away with it and ended up getting voted out for not even the thing. You know, like she did the murder perfectly and got away with it. And then, yeah, they were reading into something completely different, which is insane. So, yeah, bummer. And then I just, you know, I've loved Rob up until now.

And I just, I just don't know if I'm, if I'm down with the way he's playing this game. I feel like, I feel like he's not going to win it, doing it this way. Yeah. It's an aggressive way to play. But I just don't think it's going to work out for him in the end. I think, and I, I feel like he's really, it seems like he's putting all of his eggs in the Colton basket and hoping that Colton, he and Colton are going to be these allies. and I've heard a lot of people say they think Colton already knows Rob's a traitor, and that's why he's kind of like buddying up to him.

But I wouldn't trust Colton as far as I can fucking throw him. Like he's going to throw Rob under the bus the second he needs to, don't you think? Definitely. It's also amazing to me. I feel like the response to Colton being back on the television screens is like not great. Oh, it's not good at all. Every time I look at social media, I'm like, dang, he's getting destroyed out there. I know.

Do you think it's justified? I think so. I mean, what he did to Cassie was pretty bad. Yeah. What Sandoval did to Ariana was bad. I know. I guess it wasn't like restraining order bad? I don't know. Right. I don't know. Right. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Colton's definitely not coming off very good on the show. Who's coming off the best? It's got to be Rob. I don't know about after last week. Okay. It's kind of giving me the ick. And like some people are going to be dictatized by him and not see it. But I just, it's giving. It's giving. It's giving. It's giving him. It's giving him. It's giving me. It's. It's giving me. It's. It's. It's. It's the ick and I just wish so bad.

Candice fucked up by writing his name down at the roundtable. Yeah. Why the fuck did she do that? That was the dumbest shit. She's played so well so far doing that, but the biggest target on her back, she should have just stuck to Natalie because that's who she, and she's kind of known for like always sticking with who her first instinct is for

at the round table. She's always like, you know, this is who I came in here voting for. This is who I'm sticking with. And then this was the first time she changed her game in that way. she should have stuck with Natalie, voted for Natalie. It looks so bad that she voted for Rob.

And it's such a bummer because I think it's going to be in the nail in her coffin. I really do. And I don't think Rob's going to play nice. I think they're going to end up going against each other. And I just think Rob's got more allies, whether they're real, real loyal allies or not. I think, I don't know. I just don't think it's going to be good for Candace. But I just don't love like, I wish Rob would be like, all right, you know, Lisa's out.

But let's like start a clean slate here, Candace. and let's work together. Like, I wish he would do that. But it seems like he's just going to be selfish and just go it alone and it's giving me ick. Maybe Rob will end up recruiting Colton. I could see that, but I also think that would be the dumbest thing he ever did

because nobody in the house trusts Colton or likes him very much, it seems like. Yeah. You know who I love is I love Johnny. He's one of my favorites. I love Mark. I wish I saw more of Mark. You know, you don't see a whole lot of.

And I saw where he came out this week and complained about, he and Kristen said that like the show is cutting all of their scenes and like they had this whole strategy that no one's seeing and stuff like that. But I love Mark. I think he's gray. I think he's very smart. And I think that he's probably going to make it close to the end, if not the end. Those two are my favorite, I think. Natalie's not my favorite. I do like Tara, but she's just kind of a throwaway. Like she could be there or not. And I don't know that it would make much of a difference, you know? Yeah. Who's your fave? I don't know. I've seen in the last episode, so I can't say. But I mean,

like, I've talked about it my other podcast. I think the reason why you're not getting a lot of Johnny is because Johnny goes really far. And the people that get a lot of screen time usually means that later. They're going to be leaving because the show wants to get them on the show. Yeah. So like when you hear about things being cut, it's like, it might not be because you're boring. It might be because you're going to be on the show for a long time. They got to wait to use your stuff later.

That makes sense. So I don't know. I like the way that Rob is playing. But I haven't seen this last episode, so I don't really know what you're talking about. Yeah, I'm annoyed that Lisa Renner got back. found out so quickly. Love her so much. She's such an icon.

Have you watched anything else? Yes. We finished his and hers. Okay. Did you love the ending? I haven't gotten to the end yet. You haven't? No.

Oh, my God. Then we can't talk about it. Okay. I don't want to ruin it for you. It's fine. I don't care. There's a huge twist at the end. Okay.

Then I won't. Then never mind. I will wait until watch it myself. We'll just pit a pin on it. Great show. I did love it. Matt liked it as well. I have like a couple of

feelings about this little twist at the end. But overall, loved the show, thought it was great. I loved Tessa Thompson. Yeah, you got to finish that so we can talk about that ending. I'm only like two or three episodes in. And my thought was in the middle of it that they're both the ones who did it. Like they were in cahoots together. You'll just have to see.

A journalist investigating a murder in her hometown clashes with a suspicious detective. There are two sides to every story. Someone's lying. his and hers on Netflix. I think everyone's lying, actually, not someone. Right? Yeah.

Yeah. It is good, though. It is, very good. Yeah. A lot of different, like, discoveries throughout the season. Like, there's a bunch, like, there's one big twist,

but there's a lot of things that you kind of find out along the way that are kind of like, holy shit moments, which is cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I started the new season of Bridgeton last night. Oh, my God. How is it?

It's so, God. I have to be so sneaky. I cannot watch. Matt would never watch Bridgetter. so I can only watch it when he's in here. Like if he chooses to come in here and watch his own movie, then I can go sneak into the bedroom and watch Bridgeton. Yeah.

And he was watching Zodiac last night, which is crazy to me that he's never seen the movie Zodiac. Great movie. With Jake Gyllenhaal. Yeah, Mark Ruffalo, Jake Jillenhall. I mean, there's so many good people in it. So anyway, yeah, Bridgeton, so good. I mean, nothing new.

It's just good old classic Bridgeton, but I just love it. It's just so fun. The costumes are so fun. This season is all about Benedict, which I wasn't that excited about. Like, of all the Bridgerton's, he's kind of the one that I'm just kind of like, I'm a little bit bored with you. But it's good.

I like it. It's nice. I just feel like Bridgeton can do no wrong. So I did start that. I'm all cut up on Tommy Lies, another girly show that you'll never watch. So good. Nothing earth-shattering to say about it. But it's so fascinating to me.

Like, they're doing a lot of press right now, the two main characters that are dating in real life. And everyone is saying that they think Stephen's, Stephen's the character. I forget the actor's name, but everyone's like thinks he's psycho in real life. They're like, you have to be a psychopath in real life to be able to play this character. And he does kind of give like a psycho vibe. I don't know. It's interesting. But maybe he's just a great actor.

Maybe he's just method acting. Who knows? But I love that show. I love Grace Van Patten. It's so good. People are thrown around crazy theories. Like everyone thinks Brie is going to end up being Oliver's daughter. I don't think so.

I don't think that. I think that's a step too far. This is not Game of Thrones. Like, I know there's some fucked up shit going on here, but I don't think they're going to go that far. I think there might be a world where Oliver has some other connection with her mom or her somewhere down the road. But I just don't think he's her dad. So I'm just going to squash that one that I'm not on board with that theory.

But the fan theories are getting crazy on Tommy Lies. Speaking of Game of Thrones, have you started watching a night of the Seven Kingdoms? We did watch the first episode. I mean, I feel like this is Matt's, this should be like Matt's jam. It's about a. tall guy. Yeah. We watched the first episode. He loved it. We loved it. Is there one more episode out or two? There's two more. Oh, fuck. Okay. We had to catch up on that tonight. I wanted to watch that last night, but he was in here. And that's definitely one that I

cannot watch without him. Yeah. Are you still loving it? I think I love it the most out of all of them now. That's so crazy. It's like equal parts funny and action-packed and then like heartfelt all the same time. Like it gives you all those things. And then also it's not, I think I said this earlier, where Game of Thrones is such a vast world. The world building is so big and there's so many different families. There's the Barathians and the Lannisters and the Lord of Light and all this stuff.

And it's kind of hard to keep it all together where this is like very singular. It's like this is a guy who's pretending to be a knight, it's a knight's tale, let's be honest with you, at a tournament. That's it. I don't need to know a whole lot more than that, you know? I mean, obviously the Lannisters and the Targaryans

are important in this, but it's just very easy to worry. watch. I know what's going on. And I love this guy. I love little kid too. Egg's great. Oh yeah. He's a great little actor. Yeah, he is. We were watching like the like the after, you know, the behind the scenes little documentary they'd do at the end of the show. And the interviews of that kid is so cute. He's so funny. How old is he? Do we know? I'm always interested about actors ages because a lot of actors are older than what they play. Then sometimes you're like, holy shit. I'm assuming he is probably like 13 now. And then when they filmed, he was like 11.

Wow. 11 years old. Wow. That's crazy. Yeah. So. Very impressive. Maybe nine in this movie, about nine or show, or nine or ten.

That's wild. You're not seeing about the other day. What's that? I think that we should make a rule as a society. Oh. That I think that maybe once you turn 70 years old, you shouldn't be allowed to comment on anything on social media. I thought you were going to say drive. And I was like, yes.

That too. No, some people can still get around. But like... I don't know. The things that you're... My mother... My mother... I love her.

She's my mom. She comments on everything. And it's so... Really? ...so cringy. Well, it's like... I know that people... Like, my golf things and she'll be like,

oh my God, you were that cutest little golf... It's like, stop doing this. No, that's sweet. Oh, I know, but it's also embarrassing. You know? Yeah. And it's, oh my God, it's so much gifts. So many gifts are being through.

Once they discover the gifts, geez, Louise, the emojis. Oh my God, got to love it. Anyway, so that's my new rule. I think that if you, once you turn 70, you get like Medicaid or whatever, or Medicare, but you lose your ability to comment on social media. And those are just two rules. We'll get you Facebook. You guys can still talk on Facebook.

Yeah, they can have Facebook. I was thinking about Facebook there. If you're posting on Facebook, something is happening in your life. Like a crisis is going on. Oh, really? I feel like anytime I open that puppy up and I'm like looking at like high school and college friends from way back in the day and it's just like it looks like probably going through divorce, I think.

You know, it's a lot of, if you're on, if you're posting on Facebook, you're going through divorce. Those are the rules. All right? I don't make them up. Even if you're saying great things about your family and your husband or your wife, definitely think something's going on. Okay.

I can't leave people still post on Facebook. They do. It's crazy. I mean, I do, but I think it's just like everything that I do on Instagram just goes over there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But to go make like an actual post for Facebook is crazy. Oh, my God. Just the worst.

Does your mom comment on stuff on social media? Not really. Yeah, but she's not 70 yet. She's not very good at social media. No. Which is great. Yeah. We love that.

My mom's good and bad at it at the same time. I have something else. What is you got? It's an older movie. Okay. And you do this a lot, so, you know, something for me to do. Matt had me watch this. So we watched this when we had no power.

We went to a friend's house to take a shower, and we ended up watching a movie over there. And it's called Only the Brave. It came out in 2017. Do you know about this movie? Based on the true story of a huge fire in Arizona and the group of firefighters that all died trying to fight this fire. They spoiled it.

No, everyone knows. It's like a very, apparently, I didn't really know. But Matt was like, oh, yeah, this is like a very well-known story. It's like everyone knows about it. Based on the true story of the Granite Mountain Hot Shots, a group of elite firefighters who risk everything to protect a town from a historic wildfire. Only the Braves starring Jeff Brolin. Josh.

Josh Brolin. Miles Teller. Jeff Bridges. Jennifer Conley. Geez, Louise. I'm telling you. Taylor Kitch. Andy McDowell.

Oh yeah, she is. Wow. Huge cast. Dang. Did you ever see it? No. It's me neither. And it's great, great movie.

So, if you guys are looking for an old movie to watch, highly recommend. 2017. Yeah. I'm going to check that out. Yeah. Also, Arizona is beautiful. Like, I always just, I've only seen Phoenix, really. And, you know, you just think of Arizona as, like, desert and hot as fuck.

And, like, that's it. And just, like, red dirt. It's very green. At least in this movie. It's very nice. Mountains in the background. Very beautiful. And then it's very red, I think, from what you've said.

Yeah. Well, yeah, both. And then black, probably. Right. Because it burned red and then it fires. The soot. Yeah, you got it. Yeah. I mean, I'm not trying to live there, but it's very pretty.

All right. Only the brave. Oh, the pit. Oh, I'll kind of want to pit. Tell us everything. Okay, okay. So, you know, everyone was saying at the beginning of the season, you know, the season starts with Robbie riding his motorcycle with no helmet,

which seems insane for an emergency room physician to be riding a motorcycle without a helmet. And then in episode two, a guy comes in, like a patient comes in from a motorcycle accident and he dies. And so it's like, what is going on here? Like this motorcycle accident comes in. The guy dies. Robbie rode in on a motor. And the whole thing is Robbie's leaving at the end of his shift to go on sabbatical and he's riding his motorcycle. There's a lot of foreshadowing going on

and I just don't really understand what it is and I need to know. Like if they draw this out all season, it's going to be fucking crazy. And if Robbie dies in a motorcycle accident and doesn't come back to the show, I don't know if I can keep watching. Dang, maybe he is the guy who...

No, he's not the guy. Maybe he is the guy who died in the motorcycle crash. I don't think so. Huh? We'll see. I don't think so. But yeah, it's so good. Langdon's back and I feel like everyone probably loves Langdon because he's like a young cute doctor but I don't know

listen let me tell you about Langdon Langdon was stealing patients medicine he was stealing painkillers from patients and taking them and then Robbie caught him and then he got sent away and he went to rehab and now he's back and I'm just like how do you just let a doctor back in that was stealing drugs from patients? Does that happen? Do they get to come back? Like I don't know about that. I don't either. Seems nuts

but everyone is saying the show is very accurate So it could be possible. Yeah. I'm sure people steal a lot of stuff from the hospitals. God, I know. It's so crazy. Hospitals are so crazy. And like in this last episode, one of the student doctors, some guy came in, it might

have been the motorcycle. No, a guy came in that like felt there some glass and he had glass like all up in his body. And one of the student doctors was like removing the glass and got cut and was, they were like freaking out about like HIV exposure and taking your blood. Like it's so scary to think about that. Like if you work in a hospital, you're just at risk of so. much shit.

Oh, yeah. Fucking wild. The guy that operated on my knee, I was Dr. O'Bremski, and he was operating on someone and some like blood or fluid or whatever bacteria fell on his shoe and got into his foot and it killed him.

What? Yeah. That's insane. So scary. It is. Doctors don't get enough credit. No, definitely not. Wow.

I think that's all I got. All right. That's all I got to. What you got coming up? Well, unless something crazy happens here, which wouldn't surprise me, I'm supposed to come to L.A. on Saturday for the week. Nice. Which we're very excited about getting out of this cold and into some sunshine. Not this weekend, but next weekend I'm going to Bend, Oregon. Nice.

To play a DJ set at a winter festival they're doing in Bend. I've never been to Ben. I've heard great things, heard it's beautiful. Kind of wish I was going during the summer, but, you know, I'll take what I can get. I think there's skiing up there. It's a winter fest. I don't know. It looks like there could be skiing.

Matt and I are hoping we can snowboard, even though I haven't done that in years. So I'm probably going to hurt myself and be terrible. But we'll see. We'll see what happens. Okay. What are you doing? I'm here for a couple days hanging out with Larede, and then I'm going back home. I got to go do some work and record.

and then I'm going up to Pebble Beach for the AT&T. It's a golf thing that I'm doing. Of course. Yeah, I'm playing at a par three. I'm playing in Jake Owens par three contest on Monday. So that'll be fun. And then I'll be hanging out with the one to the Iheart people. So I'm sure I'll be going on like Ben's podcast and all this kind of stuff.

And then I come back on Friday. And then I'm going to not do anything until I probably have to come back here to help move Sarah out. tired of traveling. I want to be healthy at home hanging out. Do you guys have any Valentine's Day plans? We're going to carbone tonight. Oh, you are. Wait, tonight.

Valentine's Day is not for 12 days. Yeah, but I'm not going to be here for Valentine's Day. So we're celebrating Valentine's Day now. Did you get her a gift? I'm taking her to carbone. That's the gift? It's an expensive one, too. Huh.

Might I suggest also maybe sending something to arrive on the 14th for her? That's a small gift? Maybe so. But do I get something sent to me? Valentine's Day is for the girlies. No, everything's the girlies. This definitely is for the girlies. Oh.

Yes. All right, fine. I will send her flowers. Okay, at the least. I saw this thing. Bert Kreischer said it and it was such a good idea. He was like, this is what you do. You go to your local florist, the one that's closest to you.

You walk in there. You introduce yourself to them. You give them a list of all the important dates. Anniversaries, wedding anniversaries, Valentine's Day. birthdays, you know, days you had kids or whatever. You write them all down. You tell them exactly what they like. You give them a credit card and you say,

make sure every time this date comes out, flowers get sent. I was like, that's genius. Yeah, just don't tell Sarah that's what you're doing. No, I know. The problem is that we're, the problem is that like we're not home enough for me to know. Like that's where the, like there would be times in which I'd be at home in L.A. being like, dang it. I got sent flowers to myself.

and Sarah's in Berlin, you know? Yeah, yeah. A little life hack for all you YFT boys out there. That's a good one. It's fine. Seems a little effort to me. It seems thoughtful. Mm.

And it makes it so you never get in trouble. That's true. Which is all men want to do is just not be in trouble. Yeah, I guess. Our entire lives are just trying to stay out of trouble. Hmm. Which is almost impossible to do. It is.

Yeah. We can't help ourselves. All right, well, I'm glad you got power back. Oh, me too. Stay warm out there, kid. Yeah, it's not warm, but I'm going to try. Okay. Okay.

Okay, well, have a good day. See then. Okay, bye. Bye.
