Episode Date: January 6, 2021

We're getting a lot of new intel on this week’s episode, including that Wells is no longer bathing and Brandi is having some serious reservations about her longtime nose ring. The hosts are also sharing their first impressions of the new cast of The Bachelor from Dildo Girl to Queen Victoria. Spoiler alert: Wells makes an appearance this season and can confirm Matt James is in fact very tall. Per usual, Brandi and Wells also have some content to share with you including a mockumentary that’s too close to home and a new Netflix show that Brandi and Sarah can’t get enough of. Plus, Brandi shares her new fave drink which involves passionfruit and porn stars! Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like Wells will be serving it in Paradise. Brandi may also be exploring her very own version of Cooking Wells, so please be on the lookout. We hope that your 2021 is off to a better start than that dumpster fire we all experienced last year!

You know the one thing that I've discovered about myself in quarantine is that you don't need to shower nearly as much as you do. And it's so disgusting

that I said it out loud. So I'm kind of whispering it. It's true. When we were living in the real world, I showered so much. I go dazed now. I called Brandy before I realized how pathetic I am. Hello. Yo. Nice Siete sweatshirt. Yeah, you like Siete?

I love Siete. They're not paying us, but they make some good Mexican food products. They're all grain-free. That's their shtick. Yeah. I'll tell you what. I've got an enchilada sauce that I will fuck around with. I'm a big fan of the tortillas because they're like almond flour or just not like bad flour.

And they got some like cashew queso that like, don't hate it. I know. But also, Siete, fucking do advertising with us. What are we doing here? They really should, honestly. I was just telling the YFT years before I called you up. Here's one of the sad truths that I've learned during this year long sojourn from reality. OK, you don't as a human need to shower half as much as you do.

As as we did before. Then I feel like you do actually need to. I don't know, though though like i i used to so i would shower ever i wouldn't shampoo every day because my hair is just not that type of hair i don't have greasy hair but i would shower every day because i had to go to work and if i had to go to work then i have to blow dry my hair and it can't look all like fucking you know you know when you're bedhead i couldn't have bedhead but i like went into work you blow dry we gotta have volcano heat on this bouffant if you want to have it just stay where it needs to be but i have to shower every single day so i'd have like normal hair

and now that i don't have to like be anywhere people have to like see if i have like bedhead or not i don't shower as much. And that's gross. I agree. But also Sarah's worn the same dress three days in a row. She's come down with me. She's going to kill you. I mean, like, do you shower every day? I do. But I also am around the horses every day and I'm outside and I smell like outside and horses and riding every day to wear a helmet and the helmet is sweaty and gross and I just have to shower and wash my hair every day.

You know, I mean, I go on a run every day, every single day. And don't shower after? A lot of times I'll be sweaty and I'll do a rinse off. Is that OK? Yeah. I mean, that is a shower, though. What I'm saying is I guess I don't use soap every day. I mean, a rinse off is better than nothing, but I just can't get in the bed if I'm dirty.

It just grosses me out. Because we've all gone overboard on washing of the hands, we've now pulled back on washing of the body. That's what's happened to me. I wash my hands seven million times a day and they're cracked and i need cocoa butter all over them because i wash them too much and then my body got the funk that sucks for you it doesn't i'm actually thriving in this oh here's the other thing brandy i have switched over to this is so la like corn flaky of me, but like I've switched over to an all natural deodorant. Oh, brother. Because they say that the aluminum in the plunks of your pores and it's bad for you.

It gives you cancer or something. Who are they? I don't know, but I'm all natural, baby. They need to pipe. I also use natural deodorant, but it's mostly because I like the way it smells better. I like the way that mine smells too. All right, Brandy, before we start, I want to talk about one of our newest podcast sponsors and one I'm super proud to be aligned with, BetterHelp.

Are you picking your nose or are you readjusting your nose ring? I'm playing with my nose ring. And lately, I've been having are you readjusting your nose ring? I'm playing with my nose ring. And lately I've been having a lot of thoughts about the nose ring. Oh, okay. Like is 33 too old to have a nose ring? I don't think so. You don't? I don't. It's funny how things like nose rings, like you really start thinking about them when you get older. How come you don't switch up the type of nose ring that you got?

You've always just got the little hoop. Here's what I'll tell you about a stud. A stud is not your friend. Anytime you put a towel of any kind on your face, it snags in the stud and it hurts so bad. And if you cause trauma to the nose hole, I guess, you can get like keloids and infections and stuff. So you don't want to do that.

So that's why I keep the hoop because I don't want to snag anything. Keloids? Do you know what a keloid is? Sounds like some sort of alien form of currency. No, but it is very gross. So most people probably get them on their ears when they get your ears pierced, especially when you do your cartilage and it doesn't heal right. You get these little bumps called a keloid.

And it's like infected cartilage or something disgusting. I don't want to out her, but my sister's had a few in her ears. Oh, gross. Yeah. I've just been thinking a lot about the nose ring. I just, I don't know. I love it. I feel weird without it.

I take it out. Every now and then I'll take it out and I'll be like, no no that's i don't feel like myself yeah because i've had it since i was 16 i mean you gotta do you sister yeah i just don't want to be that like old person like i don't want all noah's friends to be like dude why is your sister still wearing nose ring like does she think she's young i don't know i'm just disgusting it's now the new year and nothing really feels different i thought there'd be like this whole new does it ever vibe you know no there never is new year's is always a kind of a big letdown no but i i mean saying like i thought that like everyone would have a vaccine by now and like we'd be like get fucking ripped ready to go and uh happening no no no no that's way too

wishful thinking i guess um we got a lot to get through today brand i i got a lot of shows i got a lot of movies i got a lot of things to be angry about oh we gotta talk bachelor gotta gotta talk bachelor gotta do you want to start it up yeah we should probably start the show get it going girl bros andes, you're listening to the first episode of 2021's YFT Podcast with... Wells and Brandy! My mom loves my bell, by the way. Good. She was like, she goes, where did you get that?

And I was like, Wells got it for me for Christmas. And she was like, is that vintage? That looks like an antique. And I was like, no, it's from Amazon. Yeah. First of all she thought she thought it was vintage well my mom loves the gift that you got me for christmas i'm just saying oh i'm so glad yeah it's so nice of her i'm still waiting to she's still holding

on to it i can't she won't let me see what it is but like eventually i'm gonna see it you know yeah probably i'm excited for that moment in time um So Matt James, the batch. Matt James. How tall is Matt James exactly? So I'm on this season and so I am around him. He is quite tall. He's got to be 6'5". Like over 6'4"? I think he's taller than Ben and Ben's like 6'4".

Yeah, that's insane. I didn't realize he was so tall until Chris said it. What's funny about it is like when he hugs these girls who are all like 5'2", it's like a giant being like, ooh. It's pretty insane. I just didn't realize that. But what are your thoughts? Are you loving Matt James the Batch or no?

Here's the thing. Like I now have gotten to know him a little bit, or I do think he's a sweet guy. Here's what I think. I think that ABC got a different lead than they thought they were getting. You know, they thought they were getting Tyler Cameron's roommate, Playboy extraordinaire, with Tyler hooking up with maybe celebrities and running around New York. hooking up with maybe celebrities and running around New York. And what they got was a super religious dude who really hasn't been in love, apparently. And he seems very nervous.

I've talked to Chris about this, too. It's like one of the reasons why they always choose in the last three or four guys from the previous season is because they're like coached up on how to do reality TV. They know what they're doing. You know, they're no longer nervous about cameras being in your face and you know coming up with stupid toasts on the fly you know you once you do it enough you're just like yeah this is whatever but i also think that's kind of what it's endearing about him is that he looks as fucking lost as all these women do if not more yeah than some of them so that's my only thing is like he just seems very

nervous to where i feel like he's just oh like he even said it out loud i think is that he's like so nervous that he's overthinking everything and like trying too hard to like be in the moment and really open up you know what i mean to where it's like if you really like try too hard to be open somehow you're not somehow like you're like faking it i don't know yeah i think it's gonna take a little bit but i'm gonna stick with the thing that i've always said about the show it's not about the lead it's about all the people that are trying to date the lead and i will say this they got a lot of great supporting cast members yeah i feel like more than any season i've seen recently, especially just a lot of big personalities. Usually there's like two or three. There's a lot I feel in this group.

Say, so right off the bat, who's your favorite chick? And you don't have to know her name. It's just like whatever her schtick was. There was something about the Georgia girl I really liked. I think her name's Rachel. Yeah. Do you remember her? Oh yeah.

She had like really pretty eyes. I don't know. There's something about her that I really like. I also really liked Brie. I think she was wearing the green dress. Do you remember her? Is she the one with the goat hooves? I don't think so.

I think this girl had on like a really stunning like emerald green satin dress. Yeah. I really like her. And I really like, I might not be saying her name right. Is it Maggie? The girl that's from Ethiopia? Yes. Is that how you pronounce her name though?

Well, I think it's longer and probably normal white people, stupid white people like us right is it maggie the girl that's from ethiopia yes is that how you pronounce her name though well i think it's longer and probably normal white people stupid white people like us can't say it right but so she shortens it to maggie she is so stunning i i just can't i can't not i can't look away like when she's on the screen i'm just like how are you so beautiful and she just seems so sweet i'm obsessed with her. And then the other girl I really liked, her name was like Ileana, I think. Don't look at me. That's why I said, I said, you don't need to know names. I just didn't know what their schtick was. All the schticks were really bad. They were great. They were so good. Like, did you not think so many of them fell so

flat? Yeah. And some of them literally fell. Two of them. Two of them. Seriously. And poor Matt was like running to save the one girl. And she was like, I'm good. I'm good. Yeah. Queen Victoria. Oh my God.

She's one of my least favorites. Can I just say. Of course. How. What the fuck are you thinking? If you're saying, I'm Queen Victoria. And you're dating a guy named Matt James. You're King Matt. Well, guess what? Queen Victoria. Matt James. You're King Matt. Well, guess what, Queen Victoria?

There's never been a King Matt, but you know what there has been? A King James. What the fuck is wrong with you? How did you know? How is that your first thing? Like, I'm Queen Victoria. You're King James.

It's a boomerang. Pepper says. What the fuck? She was too drunk to make a coherent statement. Did you not think she was so drunk? I don't know. I just love the fact that, like, she didn't put that together. There was a lot she make a coherent statement. Did you not think she was so drunk? I don't know. I just love the fact that like she didn't put that together. There was a lot she didn't put together.

And then Vibrator Girl? Come on. You got to love Vibrator Girl. I'm kind of down with her. Yeah, I'm kind of down. And I was surprised because Matt seems like a super goody two shoes. I was surprised that he thought that was that funny and like rolled with that so well. I know. shoes i was surprised that he thought that was that funny and like rolled with that so well i know but when matt came in was like everyone bow your heads and we're gonna pray to jesus

our lord and savior that the dildo girl was like fuck i shouldn't have done the dildo bit no she definitely should have though it was money and even like right after he finished praying was the first thing he said was uh I saw the dildo and got awkward. The dildo girl looks like Vanessa Bayer from SNL. I don't know if you remember. I could see that. Uh-huh. I'm just sitting there being like, and that's such like a Vanessa Bayer bit.

I feel like it was just, I love dildo girl. I just. Yeah. The fact that we're calling her that, that was absolutely terrible. Guess what? If you've watched the show, I mean, Evan was the dick doc. You're now dildo girl. Okay, the fact that she walks up there with a dildo, great. Why'd they black box it?

I don't know. I don't actually, honestly, I don't know. I don't know if you can show dildos on TV. And I don't know if I want to see a dildo on TV. I don't know. Anyways, she walks up there and she hands him. I would have been like like i'm not touching that lady i just just met you i am not touching your dildo and then she was like don't worry it's

clean it's like i don't know that it's covid times you know oh it's fair. And then she taps the girl on the shoulder with the dildo. I know. I mean, why didn't she at least bring a purse to put the dildo in? Like, why did she have to carry it around all night long in her hand? Yeah, and also, are there not dildo carrying cases? Have to be. I mean, of all the dildos that I've ever seen, there's some sort of receptacle that you have it in. You know, like a little box beside your bed or whatever.

Where do you keep your dildos? In a box under my bed. See? There you go. That's funny. I guess that's like kind of all I got on it. I'm liking the girl that she rolled up in the Bentley. Oh, which one was that?

Do you know what she had on? I don't know know she was like a fashion expert from new york city it was like a very like fluffy white dress almost like oh god was it kit i know she's a 21 year old she rolled up she's a blonde chick roll up in a bentley and the girl's like hey i'm the princess it's time for me to sit down she's like bitch i'm the princess and the queen and the king and the okay yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah this is the 21 year old yeah i do not like her i know he's by far my least favorite yes i know but but no but you love her no no no no i mean it's like demi and crystal and like here's what i can't her job description says fashion entrepreneur and she was the worst dressed by far out of anyone you can't say you're a fashion

entrepreneur and dress like that i don't know fashion is subjective that was my thing i was like just you just no yeah i think what she is is probably like an aspiring influencer but they wanted to make it sound better so they put fashion entrepreneur everyone there's an aspiring influencer i know oh and i loved Implant, the deaf girl. Oh, yeah, yeah. Abigail, I think is her name. I don't remember her name, but. She's sweet.

She seems sweet. And I hope he keeps her around a long time because she's hot. She seems nice. Obviously, she's going to have a crazy story and I want to hear more of it. But I think I agree with you. I like Rachel. Go figure. The tiny little with you. I liked Rachel. Go figure. The tiny little brunette chick I liked.

I also liked, I love Maggie. Then the other, the really tall supermodel, I liked her. She was best dressed. I took notes on best and worst dressed. Her name is Chelsea. She is beautiful. Her dress was fire.

Honestly, probably the best dress I've ever seen on this show. Yeah, well, she's a runway model. If you aren't the best dress i've ever seen on this show yeah well she's a runway model if you aren't the best dress then what the f but lol she was doing her walk for matt and tripped love it love to see it i'm excited for this season only because i was there i get i don't know if i can say that or not whatever that place is for the weird thing about that you know that's where i went on my or on jojo season oh no i didn't know that yeah we went to nemico it's the first place we went to and we were like where the fuck are we going i did the eulogy for chad and i threw up his his protein powder like

Do you think they cleared the whole hotel

for only the show? I know they did. That's sickening. So do you think each girl has her own room there's a bunch of houses on property i think they live in like this huge house that's where we stayed in this like big ass house when we were there that's cool i'm so excited that we had like zero time off of bachelor because same one we like need something to talk about and totally let's just be fair the the bachelor is always better than the bachelorette. It is always because the girls are always it.

Yeah. They're just that best ever. It's true. You're for it. Is that enough batch talk? I think that's fine. Yeah. I think so.

of sheets and everything in the past. And I love these, especially their silk like pillowcases. You know, the best thing for your skin and your hair is a silk pillowcase. And these are awesome. Here's the truth, Brandi. I got I got eczema. I got real bad eczema. I got to be kind of sensitive with my sensitive skin. And these sheets are where it's at. They're helping my eczema immensely.

I'm going to take that as a yes. You sound less cool to me. You got some fave things, bro? Bro. Well, I know you've got a bunch. I got some. But I'll kick her off. I started watching a show.

I watched episode one and it felt like I had seen it before. So I may have maybe brought this up before. So please tell me if I have. But have you seen a show on Netflix called Unbelievable? And it's about a really young girl that gets raped and no one really believes her. Do you know what I'm talking about? Yeah, we talked about this like like I want to say last year. We did, didn't we?

Well, I only watched one episode and never really gave it a chance. And so I restarted it and I'm loving it. And the cast, like I just didn't realize how good the cast was, too. Toni Collette is in it and I love her. We already talked about it. We don't have to like go into it too much. But I think just because of all the other like docu-series I've been watching lately, like that one popped up even though it's not new new. We already talked about it. We don't have to like go into it too much but I think just because of all the other like docu-series I've been

watching lately like that one popped up even though it's not new new. It came out last year but I'm loving it. I'm on episode three. It's a fucked up story. It's a true story

about this young girl who was raped and no one believed her. Yeah. It's a cautionary tale for like our justice system going forward and yada yada yada

and it's just it's a tough watch but it is good. It is. The craziest part about it is like that girl uh the first girl that you know that this all started with like it sucks that she was so unsure about her story because you know what i mean because the like the detectives or whatever just totally took advantage of that and i just watching that scene it's in that first episode so i'm not ruining anything but when you watch the scene

of her sitting in a room by herself with those two detectives who are freaking old as the hills and they're bullying her into like admitting like saying she made it up just so they can close the case is the craziest thing I've ever seen but like it's it's completely

believable that that's how that you know that that would happen yeah it's, it's a completely believable that that's how the tech, you know, that that would happen. Yeah. It's just so sad. Anyway, great show. I'm loving it. I've got my first Oscar watch of the season for you, Brandy.

Oh, did you get screeners? No, this is the best movie that I've seen this year. Okay. I mean this year, well, the past 12 months this year to start it, but you know what I'm saying? Yeah. Have you heard of uncle Frank? No. It's on Amazon prime. Have you heard of Uncle Frank? No.

It's on Amazon Prime. You need to watch it immediately. It is so well done. It's Paul Bettany. He's the lead. He plays Frank. And then Sophia Lillis is the supporting, and she plays his niece, Beth. She's the girl from It.

She's like, I think she's like the new. She's the girl from It. She's like, I think she's like the new redhead on the scene. Okay. In 1973, when Frank Bledsoe and his 18-year-old niece, Beth, take a road trip from Manhattan to Creekville, South Carolina for the family patriarch's funeral, they're unexpectedly joined by Frank's lover, Waleed, Uncle Frank. It's a period piece. Obviously, in 1973, homosexuality was less, you know, okay in the United States,

especially if you're from Creekville, South Carolina. So it's all about this guy, Frank, who was born a homosexual, and he kind of has to leave South Carolina because he's not kind of accepted for who he is, goes to Manhattan. He becomes a professor at NYU. Obviously, he's thriving because Manhattan is very liberal and progressive. And then he's like super tight with his niece, Beth, who's like wanting to get out of there. And she's like really smart, training students. So she goes to NYU. It kind of helps her get in there frank's father dies they have to go back they road trip back it's a tough movie to watch but it's also got like a lot of heart and it's one of those movies that like

i want to send to like a bunch of people who are very close-minded about homosexuality and like what that's like and i want them i want them to watch it so they have some sort of context of other people's pain and what your words can do to somebody and it's just like so fucking well done i'm telling you i'm telling you i think all three because the guy who plays wally's really really good i think all three are going to get nominated and i think that the guy who plays wally or waleed is probably going to win. And it'll be like best supporting male act. Yeah. Okay. Steve Zahn's in it. Everyone loves Steve Zahn. Margot Martindale, who's been in like a bunch of stuff. Steven Root is in it. And like, he's known, he's the dad. And he's known as like

being such a funny guy. He was like in King of the Hill. He was Milton in Office Space. He's known, he's the dad, and he's known as like being such a funny guy. He was like in King of the Hill. He was Milton in Office Space. He's in Barry. He has to play it straight and like very, very, you hate him. It's just so good. Anyway, let's go check it out. Okay, cool. I just want you to know, like I don't want to get into it, but I just want you to know that Sarah's watching fucking Bridgerton for the second time.

I love it so much. For the second time. I'm having so much. For the second time. I'm having withdrawals. Honestly, I should rewatch it also. She's watching it for the second time to quote unquote, pick up on things she missed the first time around. I love it so much. What?

It's so good. Did you even give it a chance? No. I mean, it's omnipresent in my life like i i under like just being in the room around her i know what's happening i fall asleep to bridgeton every night the past two weeks i fall asleep to bridgeton every night okay yep sounds right honestly it's the best like week of my life when i was binging it. Oh, my God. That dude's super cute. He is.

He's attractive. I mean, the girl's really cute except for the horrendous bangs they've given her. Come on, guys. Oh, I kind of like it. It suits her. It's such a good show. And obviously, they've already greenlit a season two. Pumped.

Yeah. I know you've totally fallen off of Big Sky. Have you even kept up with it at all? I know. I kind of stopped. Am I missing? It's not like the most riveting show I've ever watched in my life, but it is good. I do like it.

The two young girls really sell it for me. Like their whole little story is like it. But so we've been like this whole time. It's just like there's been a few times where they're like this freaking close to finding those two girls. And then like something happens and they don't. And it's so frustrating. I'm like, can they just please find the girls?

You're not caught up when you want to be maybe just like, don't listen to the next 60 seconds. Okay. Go. Okay. So this last episode before the winter finale, they finally, finally freaking find these girls, but like they find them and then it just kind of ends. So it's still, it's still a cliffhanger, even though it's, you know, that has kind of been, I mean, you really don't know if they're going to get away with the girls. Cause it's those two women detectives that aren't really

cops that really don't have any business, like whipping out a gun and shooting anybody or protecting anybody. And they're the ones that found them. So we'll see. And I'm just, I'm just saying there's been some illusions that Ryan Phillippe is maybe not dead. Some very subtle. Really? So I, I feel like there's like a 2% chance he might make a comeback at some point. It's funny.

Cause like I see on the sides of buses and I'm like billboards out of here in Los Angeles. And I'm like, that motherfucker was in it for 17 minutes. I just, I just feel like there's a very tiny chance he could come back at like the very end or something insane. All right.

I don't know though. Yeah. It's like enough of a chance that it's going to keep me watching, which is genius. Okay. You know, after beating Johnny bananas on worst cooks in America, celebrity edition,

that would do. I've become kind of addicted to the challenge. I must say oh okay and i was very proud of johnny for becoming the biggest winner of all time last season when he won for like the seventh time or whatever but there's a new challenge out baby and it's fucking awesome johnny's taking this year off but don't worry some of your favorites are still there anisa she's there wes he's there ct oh you know he's there i'm telling you the challenge don't sleep on it man i like that show a lot you know who's there this season lolo jones they got an olympian up in that bitch wow and they're doing secret

agents everyone had to like choose a partner guy girl partnership if you go into the elimination to like earn your red skull if you win you can be like i want that person's partner you can steal oh man it's good stuff listen i don't need to go deep into the challenge all i gotta say is is your boy likes it also why is everyone going after Wes why are you taking Wes out I don't understand love Wes he's the fucking game master and all these young guns are like we gotta take out the old dudes that's not a good good TV guys I don't know and also Lolo Jones fuck her partner so fast can't wait for that anyways the challenge on MTV pretty good did you ever watch Love Island or no?

The American version or the UK version? Is there an American version or do the Americans just watch the UK one? Well, yeah, the American version I think is hosted by my friend Arielle Vandenberg. Got you. Okay, well, I don't watch the show, but did you hear, it's like the big news story, is that a girl from that show named Zara Holland being held in Barbados for trying to flee the country after being like flagged for possibly being COVID positive. Yeah, yeah. Do you know about this?

I saw it like on, you know, Us Weekly. Oh, my God. Like, I don't really know who she is. So it's not even really that that gets me what gets me is that they really thought they could totally just take they gave them like red wristbands when you come in and you haven't been cleared that you're COVID negative or whatever I think her boyfriend was positive and like her test hadn't come back or something they thought they would just snip off those little red wristbands and make a run for the airport and not get caught and then low and bold they're going to the airport These cops come after them and arrest them.

I mean, it's funny, but also like not funny, like fucked up. It's really fucked up, but it's also just crazy. Like, I just can't imagine like being in that position and being like, yeah, yeah, yeah. If we just go right now, like they'll never know. We'll just go home and it's all going to be fine.

Like, it's not going to be fine. Yeah. It's so wild. All right, you guys, 2020 was the year of the sweat pant, of the legging, of the comfy clothes. Like did any of us ever get out of soft clothes all year? The answer is no. And are we going to continue this trend into 2021? The answer is yes. So let me tell you about one of my favorite styles of yoga pants. It's from Sweaty Betty. We've talked about them before.

They make a lot of things like great leggings, great sports bras, but they also make really great comfy pants. And I'm telling you my go-to here is this Gary Lightweight yoga pant. It's so soft, so comfortable and stylish and cute. I actually really like when pants have the fitted cuff at the bottom

so they don't look so slouchy, but they're still a sweat pant and athleisure wear is everything. It's the shit. Made from super soft, lightweight fabric. Those Gary pants allow you to breeze from running errands to work from home. It's the perfect stay at home companion. The Gary pants have been called next level lounging with their perfect shape and cozy fit without any of the bulk. It's no wonder why these pants are the Sweaty Betty staff pick for everyday comfort. These things are awesome because you guys deserve to look amazing before, during, and after your workout. We're hooking it up.

So I've been seeing a lot of DMs from YFTers out there saying that we got to watch Dairy Girls. Have you watched any of that? Oh, no, I've never heard of it.

So it's a British show. It's like a coming of age show about these three girls that go to all girls like Catholic school set in the 90s. And so it's a little bit stylized. Here's the tag the personal exploits of a 16 year old girl and her family and friends during the troubles in the early 1990s so they're growing up in ireland okay during the 90s when i feel like there was a lot of bombing going on okay i feel like bono wrote a lot of songs about this, as did the Cranberries. Sunday, bloody Sunday. Might have been that.

I don't know. Anyways. And you know what's really funny? One of the girls from Bridgerton is also in this show. Oh. Yeah. Love it. Obviously, it's like probably not for guys in their 30s.

It's probably more for women. But it's really, really funny. It's just got that kind of like dry British, Irish, Scottish, whatever humor. Dairy Girls. I'm only like two episodes in. So sorry I'm not giving like more of a review. But like I really liked it. Okay.

I'm like writing it. I've got a little list going of things I need to watch. So I'm writing it down. Did you make Rye watch Richard Jewell? No, we have not gotten around to that yet. He loved that show. I know, I know. I was thinking we were a little burnt out on Richard Jewell for a minute and needed to switch it up.

But now I think enough time has passed that we can go back. I need Rye's number. I need to show the source. I can't deal with you. Fine. I finally watched Birds of Prey. and so that is harley quinn two basically you know like so suicide squad with margot robbie playing harley quinn she was everyone was the fucking was harley quinn for halloween a couple years ago anyways i didn't love suicide squad so i was like i don't

know if i'm gonna like birds of prey and here's my thought on that don't sleep on birds of prey everyone out there it's so much better than suicide squad and here's the other thing it's better than wonder woman did i talk about wonder woman last week yeah you did and i was like it's kind of cheesy and like i was yeah sarah and i were sitting there watching and i was like god birds of prey so much cooler. It's got the better fight scenes. It's not cheesy. And the graphics look better. And we looked it up.

Birds of Prey was so much cheaper in terms of CGI budget. It was like, Wonder Woman was a $200 million film where Birds of Prey was like $86 million. Really good. Phenomenal story. Like how Margot Robbie tells the story of the whole thing is phenomenal. It's just also it's very like women empowering. And you know who's great in it? Who's that?

Ewan McGregor. Oh, okay. Ewan McGregor is the bad guy. And he's always been the good guy. He's Obi-Wan Kenobi, you know. He's just phenomenal. Rosie Perez is great. Margot Robbie's always good.

And this is like the little kind of like side note that like Sarah noticed that I wouldn't have noticed was produced by Margot Robbie. She's one of the EPs on it. The director was a female, all the producers and a lot of the people who created the film editors and stuff, all female. So it was like very much woman power thing, which I thought was cool, you know yeah so anyways i really liked it i know i'm super late on it but better late than never that's what i always say actually it was 2020 so you know did you watch death of 2020 no what's that so it's like a documentary about 2020 it's on netflix right now and oh And so you've got Samuel L. Jackson as the narrator of the whole thing.

It's interviewing all these different people, but all these people are played by famous people. So Hugh Grant plays this British historian. And Lisa Kudrow plays this crazy Republican senator that doesn't believe anything in the media. Kumail plays the guy who basically started Twitter. And he's like this like rich tech guy. Tracy Ullman plays the queen of England. Leslie Jones plays a psychologist, like dealing with all these,

everyone just like losing their minds during the pandemic. Joe Carey, Keery, AKA Steve from Stranger Things, plays like a YouTuber. And so it's like them being interviewed about 2020. And it's so funny. But here's the thing. Okay. Too soon.

Really? Way too soon. I can't. I was watching it and I was like, we're still in it. I can watch this a couple years and I'm going to reminisce about like days of like three days in a row. I haven't showered and I'm in the same sweats and the mustard stain on my shirt starting to look good but too soon guys too soon interesting but i check it out okay so maybe i'll like bookmark that for like may yeah give it a hot minute we're so running out of shit that we're like fuck it let's do it you know and yeah it hurt true it hurt because i got tequila shot it hurt but it

still felt good you know i don't know speaking of tequila yeah real quick do you happen to know what a porn star martini is i do not i didn't either and i still don't really know what's in it. I'm Googling it. It is the best freaking thing I've ever had. Where'd you get this drink? Went to dinner last night with my family and a couple of our friends that have just been staying here for the past few weeks. You can go to dinner? You can go out? Pod. Check this out.

Everywhere we go, we get a private outdoor space a quarter of a mile away from the restaurant somehow it's nuts i don't know i get me and my sister go so i guess that's the that's the golden ticket okay but it's pretty sweet so they've been we go to restaurants and they'll like set us up either in like a total like separate building all by ourselves so the only person we ever see is the waiter. And then last night we went to my favorite restaurant in town, Barcelona Wine Bar. And they set us up in this like outdoor courtyard that I don't even know. Like it was like very far from the restaurant. I can't even believe they made it happen. But anyway, which was super sick. And then so I showed up and everyone

was drinking this drink. And I was like, what are you guys drinking? Like, why is everyone drinking the same thing? And somebody was like, oh, it's a porn star martini. You have to try drink. And I was like, what are you guys drinking? Like, why is everyone drinking the same thing? And somebody was like, oh, it's a Pornstar Martini. You have to try it. And I was like, I'm not really a martini gal. And they were like, just try it. And I took a sip. It is so freaking good. It is the best drink I've ever had in my life.

Like, the best. Okay, so I just Googled. Let me tell you what's in this thing. The Pornstar Martini is a cold passion fruit-flavored cocktail made with vanilla-flavored vodka vodka. Oh no, here's a word I can't pronounce. I would say Passoa, but something tells me that's not it. Okay. P-A-S-S-O-A with the curly Q on top. Okay. So Passoa or whatever, passion fruit juice and lime juice. It is traditionally accompanied by a chilled shot glass of Prosecco. It is not a true martini, but is one of many drinks that incorporate the term into their names.

If you make this thing in paradise, everybody is going to be litsky because it's so good. Okay. Let me tell you something about what's happening in paradise. You're getting your tequila soda and you're liking it. Okay? I would literally bring my own passion fruit juice just so I could have you make this for me in paradise. It's that good. You're getting tequila soda and you're liking it.

Unless you're Bennett. And then you're getting your martini. By the way, somehow stumbled upon Bennett, painted his face green and did, You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch. And I was like, oh, no. You've slipped into douchebaggery so fast, Bennett. Slipped in or was he kind of there? I always thought it was kind of like he was playing a part.

And now I'm starting to wonder if he just is a dork and I thought he was playing cool. All right. Well, I get some Paso. And you have to next time you go somewhere. I know this is L.A. shut down. Next time you go somewhere where you can order a drink like you have to order one just to try. It's so good. I would send you one as a late Christmas present, but that's not a thing.

So maybe I'll Amazon Prime you all the ingredients. Can you Amazon Prime liquor? Well, I don't mean I don't know but here's the thing you know i'm doing dry january why i don't know i'm three days in and i don't i don't i think i've made a bad decision but i'm gonna try to do it you got any books bro i went into this podcast episode thinking i was just totally gonna lie and and say that I read this book. But now that we're 40 minutes in, I just can't do it. So my best friend Kirsten read this book. Oh, my God.

And I made her send me a little, like, blurb synopsis recommendation that I could share. But maybe you've read it because you're a Stephen King guy. Have you read The Institute? Yes. And I talked about it on the show. And I said it. Did we? And I said how it was my favorite Stephen King book I've ever read. It was this one. I thought it was another one. Outsider. I thought

you loved. I liked the Outsider, but I didn't love it. The Institute was the one where I was like, it's Stranger Things, but instead of 111, there's 20 of them. Yeah. Kind of Stranger Things, I guess. Did you know? First of all, you don't get to go say kind of Stranger Things because you didn't read this book. I mean, I'm reading all these things Kirsten sent me. Did you know they really do this like BDNF thing on people? No, but it doesn't surprise me. It's a real thing. That's kind of scary.

Yes, it's a great book. You should read it. It's phenomenal. That's when I was like, this is going to be a Netflix book show immediately. It definitely should be. For some reason, like you just really didn't sell it to me, but Kirsten really did. It was just a year ago when I did it. I'm still like balls deep into the invisible life of Addie LaRue.

And I got to say, so good. All right. This girl is in France in like the 1700s and she's being like forced to marry this dude and she doesn't want to marry this dude. And she makes a deal with the devil to not be married to him. And of course, the devil, you know, grants her wish, but it's not really what she wants. And typical like genie shit. And she's immortal, but no one can remember her. So like she'll meet somebody

and then like 20 minutes later, they'll be like, who are you? And she can't, no one can remember her. And so it's like a very lonely life. And so every year the devil comes back and it's like, all right, time for you to hand over the soul. And she's like, I'm not giving it to you yet. I'm not doing it.

It's like this act of defiance. She lives 300 years. And then finally she meets somebody who remembers her his name is henry he works at a bookstore it's great i'm really liking it it'll be a great show really good show he works at a bookstore like what's his name from you yeah but i don't know if he's a murderer he does something's not right about him because he can remember and anyone else can so i don't know. Eee. Eee. You know what else is a favorite thing of mine?

What's that? I feel like this is something you could totally do on Cookin' Wales. Okay. Have you ever made coconut popcorn chicken? No, and I'll tell you why.

It's bomb.com. Tell me why because you're missing out. Okay, the fact that you just used bomb.com in 2021 is scary. Bomb.com. That was like 2009.

People were throwing that out. I see bomb.com a lot. Well, that's not the bomb.com. I don't like coconut. Not a coconut guy. I'll tell you what really makes or breaks it. The recipe calls for like a sweet chili sauce. Yeah. breaks it the recipe calls for like a sweet chili sauce yeah walk yourself to the like international

food section and get the freaking sweet chili sauce that's in i guess japanese writing not english get that one bomb bomb bomb i'm gonna post the recipe on my instagram that's how much i want to just do why don't you pretend to be Cooking Wells and do it? That sounds hard. Oh, my God. Hey, you're watching this episode of Cooking Wells, and you just cut up the chicken, and then you roll it around in the panko crumbs

and the shredded coconut, and then you stick it in the oven for a solid 20 minutes. Mmm, yum, good. Yeah, it's basically just you doing your mom's accent, but then throw in a couple cuss words, and then find something gross about the food and be like, basically, shrimp

are cockroaches of the sea! And they taste delicious! And then you're there. Shrimp are disgusting, I gotta say. Isn't it coconut shrimp? Chicken. Oh. Same thing. I don't eat shrimp. You don't eat shrimp? Chicken. Oh, same thing. I don't eat shrimp. You don't eat shrimp? Nope.
