By the way, did you guys know it's now possible to get federally legal THC shipped right to your door? I'm serious. I remember a time if I wanted weed I had to drive up to Santa Cruz to the beach boardwalk and get some crap weed with the stems and sticks in it. Had to meet up with some sketchy character in the back of the beach boardwalk and it was terrifying. But now Mood delivers premium 100% federally legal THC and it comes straight to your door. And you can get 20% off your first order at mood.com slash yft and enter promo code yft. I feel like now more than ever, it's so important to know where your product is coming from. And I love that Mood is grown on small pesticide-free American farms so I can feel

good about where my product is coming from. They even offer high-potency gummies, which is kind of my product of choice, but they do have top shelf flour, home-baked cookies, vapes, anything you'd find in a dispensary.

What up everybody? Dude, freaking White Lotus sucked dude a little bit, right? We're all thinking it. It was like, that's the ending? Mike White? It was still fun and

interesting and I liked watching it, but that's the ending? Mike what? I mean we'll talk about it more when Brady comes on but I was not impressed okay but whatever I still watched it. What else is going on in the world? Morgan Wallin didn't hang out for the after party at SNL okay? Going back to God's country is what he said. Oh, it's a little bit later, but Chapel rone said something to the effect of like all her friends that have kids are miserable and Why would you want to have kids and then like all the moms on social media freaked out? but There's some truth to that there isn't a single friend that I've got that isn't like Well, we can't do it because we got the kids. We can't do it because of the kids.

It's always that. And then the second you call someone out being like, it seems like you guys don't like this very much. They're like, how dare you question my love for being a mother? Well, the only reason I'm questioning it is because you're always complaining about it, okay? I see both sides because I have 10 nieces and nephews

and I talk to my siblings who are like, it's the most joyous and wonderful thing in the world, but then you're held hostage by them because you can't do anything. And especially if like, you know, it's a hearty of the babysitter all the time. Oh God. So yeah, I've started a fast.

One of our sponsors Prolong sent me this fasting kit and I'm on day two. Pretty good. I feel fine. Ever lost any weight? No, but I feel on day two. Pretty good. I feel fine. Ever lost any weight? No, but I feel like it's gonna be good for me. Excited about it. What do you think?

Should we call the brand Zeno? It's time to call her up. I've been fasting. Very hungry. Hi. What's up? You add some things to your wall? Yeah, Well, I've got a new studio so I know Yeah, I got some new accoutrement behind me. I've actually got a green screen that might put in I don't know

Whoa? For for this maybe another show who knows, you know sounds cool magic could have anything behind me Be sick like it could be like jurassic park behind you. Yeah, or like just have like yft logo right here Well, that's boring. I mean, yeah, I like jurassic park better. Uh, what are you doing? Oh It's fucking freezing here Well, there's also a tornado there Oh, there were multiple tornadoes. Are you okay?

I'm sleep deprived, but yeah, everyone's okay. But boy, oh boy, let me tell ya, I spent two nights in the basement on the bathroom floor with all the doggos. There was one night initially that was terrible. Couple tornado warnings happened around midnight. So I was able to like stay awake until the storm and then go to bed after.

So that one was like whatever, but that first storm, lot of lightning and a fucking course like knocks out more of my shit. Remember last time we had a lightning storm and knocked out my wifi and all these things. This time same thing, knocked out all my ring cameras, just complete disaster. The internet's fucked, it's all a nightmare.

And then we had two days of just like rain and then another night of back to back to back to back tornado warnings. And they didn't start until like one in the morning. So I went to bed at like 9.30 cause I was like, I want a couple hours. And then I woke up to my phone going off. So now the nice thing is the way you get like an Amber alert

on your phone, they now do tornado warnings. Yeah. Which is great. Because it wakes you up if you're asleep. So I woke up to that, gathered the dogs, went to the basement here in Nashville. You probably know we have this Twitter account. Yeah. It's like the weather guys. Nashville severe weather. Yeah. No one watches the television. Yeah. Weather broadcast. Everybody's on Twitter, which is hilarious. Or like they do like a YouTube live. So I had it pulled up on my iPad and was watching that all night.

And it would be like one tornado warning. And of course, like coming straight for me, you know, like they show you like the boxes and it's like, literally I'm in the line of fire. And then the first one like fell apart right before it got to me. And I was like, whew. And they were like, oh, another one,

another tornado warning, literally coming straight for me. There were four. I mean, I barely slept. And I was like, whew. And they were like, oh, another one, another tornado warning, literally coming straight for me. There were four. I mean, I barely slept. Like it was wild. I don't think I went to bed until 6 a.m. And even then there were still warnings going off and wind was crazy.

Like it was wild. Wow. Definitely a hairy, for you've seen the videos of the flooding that happened after. I live up on a hill, which does me a solid during times like this, but my barn is down below.

So all the water that runs off this hill goes down to my barn. So the whole back of my barn flooded. And my little mini pony, he lives in the back of the barn. And I had to like bring him into the barn aisle and make him a stall out of dog gates from the house. Honestly, I was really impressed with my creativity and survival skills during all of this. The back of the barn is still flooded a little bit.

It's just soaking wet at this point. But Green Hills evacuated. It was bad. It was really bad. Yeah, my sister was sending us pictures and like where they play soccer was like completely flooded. But I was nervous for you guys. And I'm glad to see that you did one touchdown.

I personally know two people, one very close to me, that the tornado ripped straight through their house, took their roof off, destroyed everything, totaled their two cars. They were asleep. She was actually on the news. It's my friend's parents is who it was. And they were asleep.

The way it woke them up was their bedroom door has French doors. And they woke up to the French doors just slamming open and the wind knocked the woman off of the bed and slammed her into the wall. And then when she came to, she said her mattress was wedged in the bathroom doorway. Scary shit. And probably a miracle she's alive to be honest. But it her mattress was wedged in the bathroom doorway. Scary shit.

And probably a miracle she's alive, to be honest. But it was them and five dogs in the house and they were all okay. But their house is destroyed. It's really sad. Damn. Maybe I'll post the GoFundMe link. They're trying to raise money. Sorry, Joe.

Does insurance not cover that? I don't know. I mean, insurance is a fucking joke. You got to know that. Yeah. Even if insurance is going to put a dent in it, it's going to take years for that to happen. And in the meantime, they have no house and no cars. It's really it's really scary

And that's the first time like I grew up here. So I'm I'm used to the tornadoes I'm used to the storms and being in the basement and stuff But it's the first time in my life that someone that close to me has actually had their home destroyed from one Which is pretty crazy. Damn. Well pray for Nashville It's not like we get this every year, knock on wood. I've been in my house for five years and it's the first time in five years that I've had to sleep in the basement on the bathroom floor like that, you know? Nashville has had a lot of natural disasters though. Yeah. We do get tornadoes and flooding quite often.

Don't you remember? It was like, it was when I was there when there was like the crazy flooding. I wasn't here for that. I was in LA. Yeah. So guys, stop moving here. It's terrible here. I went to a record store yesterday for a little showcase and half the people there were people from Nashville that I knew then that now live here. So everyone's just coming back over here.

Interesting. Yeah, it was just half the room. It's a lot of fun though. Crazy. A lot going on in the news, I think we got to talk about it. It's tornadoes. What else? Well, we didn't talk about Morgan Wallin not hanging out for the after party. I was going to bring this up, but forgot. SNL. What are your thoughts on that? I don't know. Morgan does Morgan, you know, I guess. Do you know him personally? I don't. I've met him a couple of times, but in like large group settings, but I don't know him very well, but he just seems, you know, he's got a little of that, like attitude that my sister's kind of got of like, I'm going to do me.

And I don't really care about the rules and like what people are supposed to do. Yeah, but your sister don't think would ever do that on SNL. Oh, no, she fucking loves SNL. She's so close with everybody. She's been on it so many times.'t think would ever do that on SNL. Oh, no. She fucking loves SNL and loves... She's so close with everybody. She's been on it so many times. Like, she wouldn't do that. But, you know, Miley doesn't really follow the rules and kind of does whatever she wants and... Yeah.

I feel like Morgan's a little bit like that. I'm not sure I've heard like a single story about the guy where I'm like, he seems cool. What are the stories they know about him? Someone caught him on video saying the N-word at a party. He didn't like that. And I don't think a lot of people liked it. And then he got drunken through a chair off a roof

and it could hurt somebody in Nashville. That sounds like that's a douchebag move. And then he gets invited to play SNL, gets paid for it. I assume you get paid to go to SNL to perform there. I actually don't know if you do. Well, either way, it's promoting your music, I guess. Even if the entire cast were assholes to him and he felt slighted by them,

it's another thing of like, ugh, you know? The cast doesn't look bad. He looks kind of like a jerk. I'm just waiting for him to do something where I'm like, that guy's cool. Got it. To me, his biggest song is a Jason Isbell song. So I'm not even sure if he's right or shit.

It's not. Anyways, I guess Morgan Wallen proved me wrong. Do three things that aren't like just a jerk move and then I can be on board. Oh, geez. I like how you're like skirting around this because you're like friends with them or something. I'm not friends with them, but I don't dislike the guy. I've been to the SNL after party and it's awesome. So like I've been twice.

It's amazing. So to not go is like, dude, and you've got a private jet. It's not like you're like, I'm going to miss a flight. Right. Anyways, it seemed a little performative to me. All right.

Ashley Spears Springtime is here, even though it's 40 degrees in Nashville, and it is time to start hanging out outside. I love being in nature. I

And then the other thing, I think it was Charlie XCX. Was it Charlie XCX or was it Chapelrone? One of the two went on like Caller Daddy and was like, all of my friends who have kids. Yeah. Okay. All of my friends who have kids hate it. And then like

all the moms were like, no, we love being a mom. How dare you do that? But here's the thing moms, you guys do complain about it a lot. You know what it's giving? What? It's giving extreme defensiveness because it's true. So I have four siblings, all of which have kids. I have 10 nieces and nephews. They love their kids and I love them as well, but they do.

You go over their house and like some sort of meltdown, they're like, don't have kids, dude, don't do it. Oh yeah. And the other part about that whole thing is like, chapel said her friends, not every mom in the on the planet. So all these fucking girls on TikTok, you guys aren't chapels besties. Yeah, down, like stop it. And also, you guys do complain about it a lot. Yeah, and I'm sorry, it does suck. None of my friends with kids are happy either. Like I'm with chapel. I mean, I

have a lot of friends who have kids that are happy, but they do say like, oh, we can't go out to dinner because we can't get a babysitter. Freaking sucks. That's terrible. I gotta go to freaking soccer practice, then hockey practice, then lacrosse practice. I'm just like, I'm just a glorified Uber driver.

Sorry. I'm with Chappell on this one. Yeah, I mean, I'm not really with her or against her, but I think it's so dumb for people to be like, how dare you, no, I've been great about this. Dude, we gotta all chill out, man. You do you, I'll do me, and we'll just all be happy. Yeah, we'll be fine.

What else is going on in your life? Stagecoaches is on the horizon. I saw that. Are you playing it this year? I'm not playing the honky tonk. Unofficially, I will be playing a set elsewhere at the festival. Also a couple of parties offsite.

So all those things will be announced very soon. When is it? Last weekend of April. Oh, it's coming up. Ah, it's Homesands on the horizons. Dude. Sun and Fun in the Desert will be here shortly. Very nice. All right, you wanna start the show?

Yeah. How's it gonna be with you? I think it'll be with you. Bros and hoes. You're listening to Your Favorite Thing podcast with. Wells and Brandy. Oh my God. What?

We have to talk about the season slash series finale of 1923. Oh, okay. Wells, I am unwell. I am unwell to my core over this. What happened? Two hours of stress and anxiety and bullets flying and people dying and just more stress and anxiety.

Spoiler alert, if you have not seen this finale and you plan on it, I'm gonna need you to skip forward at least 60 seconds here because I have to air out some spoilers, okay? All of that stress, all that anxiety, all of the torture Alex has been put through, all of the things she has overcome just to make it to fucking Bozeman and fucking die of frostbite.

Are you fucking kidding me right now? Are you fucking kidding me? You're gonna let my girl go out like that? Can't believe it. Yeah, and yeah, you know, yes, she got to see Spencer. What the fuck? Yes, she got to see Spencer one more time before death. Yes, she got to have their child

and help further the Dutton line, but she's not fucking here to see it. She doesn't even get to see the ranch. She doesn't even get to fuck her husband one more time. I'm upset. I'm very upset about this. There are just so many ways that she could have avoided this. Spencer even says to her, like, I was going to come for you. What the fuck are you doing? What are you doing? Putting yourself through this? I was coming to get you. Bitch should have stayed in London, she'd be just fine. Also, okay, let's just say, you know,

she doesn't stay in London, she does come to America. You get to Chicago, these rich people take you in, you're warm and cozy in their mansion. Stay the fuck put, okay? Send a wire to your guy and say, hey, I'm in Chicago, I'm not that far. Once you get to Bozeman, holla, and I'll come meet ya once winter's over.

Stay put, stay warm, you're pregnant. You would've been just fine in Chicago. Spencer would've gotten to the ranch, he would've saved everyone, and then he would've come to get you. I'm so upset. I'm sorry, I'm sorry to hear that. However, as devastated as I am, it was a great finale.

Really comes at the heartstrings, you know? Oh my God. I'm just, I'm unwell. I'm gonna be unwell for quite a while. Okay. I do want to talk about Paramount Plus because I've got a show on that, but I'm going to, but first if you're angry about that finale, I get to be angry about my finale.

Which one? White Lotus. I knew you were going to say that. Okay. I'm not, I haven't seen it yet. Oh, dude. Okay. I have to take my, your pocket out for what you're doing. Okay. All right. Okay. Send a signal when you're done.

Yeah. Okay. All right. To the YFT years Send a signal and you're done. Yeah, OK. All right. To the YFTers, if you haven't seen the end of White Lotus, fast forward two minutes. OK, so in a whodunit, you want there to be some sort of misdirection. And I kept saying the entire time, like it's too obvious that the Walton Goggins, the Rick

character, is the one who does all the murdering, because you already know from the jump that he's there to try to kill his estranged father. And then to make that what it is, well, this wasn't a whodunit at all. This was just like a whodunit, I guess. Throwing in the son, almost died, but then didn't. I kind of wanted him to die, if I'm being honest with you.

The lack of a storyline with Mook was just like lazy writing. Like you have the biggest pop star, K-pop star in the world. And her character arc is nothing really other than like she wants what's his name to become like more of a man, which she ends up having to be. But then like, obviously goes against like his Buddhist beliefs. The whole thing was just like, to me, it seemed really lazy. And here's what I'm going to say. You know, I follow so many TikTok and Instagram things

where they talk about like what could possibly be all the different possibilities, the storyline and stuff. Mike White needs to hire some of those people to come and write on the staff. Because one of the stories I heard that like the father wasn't really his father. It was actually the woman. And she was a trans person who transitioned over after that He she sired the kid and then that's he she so he kills the wrong guy Like that would be a great storyline But you guys didn't do it

the only thing that I kind of like loved is the through line of the mother and the son who get the five million dollars from Greg because then at least that means that for I would assume next season she goes and she sets up a white lotus and then we have another Joe. But you know what? It was just to me, lazy writing. And that's all I have to say about that. So without ruining anything, was it a good finale or a bad one? I didn't like it. Oh, shit, okay. There was no twists, really. Interesting. I like the three women storyline a whole lot. I hated how that ended, too,

because, like, the way that they treated each other and all that turmoil and stuff was very real. I thought that was, like, really beautiful writing, but then how it ends, you're like, that's not what would happen there. I mean, I still watched and I still loved it and I still Google when will this come out? Last night with this was on Sunday.

So I could watch it exactly when it came out. So it had me gripped, but I just didn't want the ending. But you know what I did love? That book I listened to, Run, Blake Crouch, finished it. Wow. So good. So fun, gripping, really fun story. I'm not sure if it's gonna win any book awards or anything like that, but if you want a great gripping book

if you're going on vacation or something. I'm definitely gonna read that, because I love him. Speaking of whodunnits, I forgot to tell you this one last week, but it was fine, we had enough stuff. Have you seen The Residence on Netflix? The Residence?

Yeah. I don't think so, who's in that? It stars Uzo Aduba. She was like crazy eye in Orange is the New Black. But she's like, she's like an amazing actor. Randall Park, who's like the funny guy in Ant-Man. Ken Marino, who is in in a bunch of stuff, but like Wet Hot American Summer is like the thing that I know best for.

Giancarlo Esposito, he's like always the bad guy in like everything. Bronson Pinochet, he is Arge in Barely Hills Cop. Get the fuck out of here, get the fuck out of here, because it's important. Oh, Al Franken, who's a comedian who also was Get the fuck out of here because it's important. Oh, Al Franken, who's a comedian, who also was a senator or like a congressman. He's in it. Such a fun whodunit. OK, inside the White House's staff residents and the lives workers share with the first family. That's a terrible tagline.

OK, it takes place in the White House during like this big gala that they're having at the White House where they're hosting the Australian Prime Minister and like the ex-Prime Minister of Australia and everything. The main butler of the house is this guy A.B. Winter. There's like turmoil going on with like, you know, setting up this like big party and everything. And all of a sudden he's found dead in the game room. And it looks like an apparent suicide. He's got like cuts on his wrists, but there's like no knife and you know, it's like all this stuff. So they bring in this detective who's played by Uzo.

She's like the greatest detective ever. She's like saw like the most difficult crimes. It's basically just her interviewing everyone from the White House that works there, the guests there. It's so fun. It's such a great twist. You don't really see coming. The cast is amazing.

It's very, very funny. Anyways, if you love a whodunit, the residents on Netflix, all the thumbs up. Okay. All right, guys, long work weeks and busy weekends can leave you feeling and, yeah and looking a little depleted.

Oh, you were. Yeah. Is it Mobland? That's what it's called, right? Yeah. Huge cast, Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren, a bunch more crazy cast. Well it's Guy Ritchie who's doing it, right? Yeah. So it's very British. It's like lock stock, a juice,

smoking barrels or snatch or whatever. But to me, it's like Guy Ritchie doing Taylor Sheridan. That's because the casting director for all Taylor stuff did this show. Okay. So that's probably why you're feeling the Taylor Sheridan vibes. Yeah. But I think the reason why I like it better because I've always been a little critical of Taylor's writing where it's like very soap opera-y, where this seems more Guy Ritchie.

But you gotta watch the show with subtitles. I was literally just about to say that. I can't understand a damn thing Tom Hardy sang. Yeah. Or any of them, but specifically Tom Hardy. Cause he plays an American in a lot of shit that he does. This authentic accent of his is tough to understand. Even Pierce Brosnan's accents. I love Pierce Brosnan.

He can do no wrong in my book. Yeah, he looks amazing, by the way. He does. He looks better than Tom Hardy does, and he's got to have 20 years on him. I disagree, but he does look good. Tom Hardy is hot. Power is up for grabs as two warring crime families clash in a battle that threatens the topple empires. In the cross

fires stands Harry D'Souza, a street smart fixer who knows too well where loyalties lie when opposing forces collide mob land a new series streaming on Paramount Plus. I think it's also on Showtime. So obviously Harry, D'Souza is played by Tom Hardy and then Pierce Brosnan, the mob boss, like the main mob boss and Helen Mirren's his wife. Helen Mirren, you can tell after the first episode, you're like, oh, this bitch is no nonsense.

I love her. I love her in general. Like I love her as an actress, but I love this character. Speaking about gripping things, the opening scene of Mobland is like, ooh. Yeah. I'm excited about this. Yeah, it was a great first episode.

I've only watched one and like a half episodes maybe. Yeah. But yeah, it's very good. You know, there's another procedural hospital thing on Netflix. I just came across this last night. The Pulse. The Pulse, yeah.

The scene that they show you as the teaser in the Netflix app is trash. That's all I watched. And I was like, oh, that doesn't look good. Follows the personal and professional lives of doctors and staff at a busy Miami trauma center, Pulse on Netflix. Did you watch it?

No, Sarah's been watching it, and she likes it a lot. She does? Yeah. And I was like. Has Sarah watched The Pit? No, Sarah's been watching it and she likes it a lot. She does? Yeah. And I was like- Has Sarah watched The Pit? Yeah, she loves The Pit. She's obsessed with The Pit. The Pit is so fucking good.

Yeah. Last couple episodes of The Pit had been amazing. Really? Yeah. All right, maybe I gotta do that one. You would like it, it's really good. I just never been, like I didn't like ER. You're a medical drama.

I just didn't care. You didn't like ER? I didn't like, I didn't like ER. I just didn't care. You didn't like ER? I didn't like, I didn't care. What is wrong with you? I know, people like it. ER was amazing. Like it's one thing to not like Grey's Anatomy. It's very female.

Yeah. Okay. But ER? I liked Scrubs. Well, of course you did. Scrubs was great. Uh-huh. Yeah, good show.

Oh. Zach Brown. I am pretty deep into Longbright River. I think I brought this up like a week or two ago. Have you watched that one at all? On Peacock with Amanda Seyfried? Oh, yes. Yes. I started this yesterday.

Do you like it? The first episode was so boring to me. It's slow to get into, but once you get in, it's really good. OK. It deals with a lot of like homelessness and like obviously fentanyl thing. And you know, it's kind of about like these women all getting abducted and dying and no one really cares

about them because everyone's assuming that they're overdosing, but really probably there's some sort of serial killer situation going on. And you're just like, oh, this is so sad. It is dark, but it's good. Amanda is amazing in it. I'm like four or five episodes in, I think. It's sad, you know? It is dark, but it's good. Amanda is amazing in it. I'm like four or five episodes in, I think. It's really good.

Yeah, good twist at the end of episode one. Yeah. But the entire time I'm like, let's get going with this, come on, let's go. Slow to get into it, but now that I'm in, I'm locked. I will stick, I'll stick with. Yeah, it's good. Speaking of murders and women getting murdered,

have you seen Gone Girls? No, but I saw this come across my Netflix thing today and I was like, oh, this is a Wells show. A look back at the women who disappeared from New York City and Long Island before the 2010 discovery of female remains found in Gilgo Beach area of Long Island, which led authorities to believe

that deaths were all connected. Gone Girls, the Long Island serial killer on Netflix. Dude, the fucking guy who does it, creepy as shit, man. Oh, man, when you see him, you're like, oh God, dude, that must've been terrifying. Anyways. I love that.

I know. But same thing, like they were all prostitutes and it's like the cops didn't care. And then also the cops were so crooked and stuff and some of the cops were going to hookers and they're going to prostitutes, sex workers, whatever. Once those cops get caught and then they put in a new regime,

they put in this woman DA or whatever and this woman chief of police, they figure it like a new regime. They put in like this like woman DA or whatever and this woman like chief of police. They figured it out in like a month. These idiots was all right there. Yeah, I mean, that's probably true. That's fair. I want to show that I didn't really love all that much with the cast was great.

Oh. I'm called the wheel of time. It's Rosamond Pike. Oh, I like her. It's on prime and it just and it's so grandiose. Set in a high fantasy world where magic exists, but only some can access it. A woman named Maureen crosses paths with five young men and women. This sparks a dangerous, world-spanning journey, based on the book series by Robert Jordan, Wheel of Time. It's kinda like Lord of the Rings, you know, fantasy world building.

I watched the first episode and I was like, this is kinda boring, but I'm gonna stick with it because it sounds like it could be cool and you just gotta get into it. There's two seasons right now, so I'm on the first. I'll do like a good book adaptation. Did you ever read Project Hail Mary? No. You didn't? Uh-uh. Did you read read Project Hail Mary? No. You didn't? Uh-uh. Did you read The Martian?

I don't think I read The Martian. But you saw the movie. Loved the movie. So the guy who wrote The Martian wrote this book called Project Hail Mary, which I probably told you guys about like four years ago. I remember reading it in paradise. It must've been five years ago.

It's a fantastic book. I loved it so much. It's basically about this guy who, he's an astronaut and the sun is kind of like eroding and Earth is gonna basically die in a certain amount of time. So he has to go out into the universe and try to save the world and ends up befriending this alien named Rocky who's like a spider

has no eyes or whatever it's weird you fall in love with this rocky character and their ability to like save the world is like anyways the story is just absolutely fantastic beautiful and that's coming out soon oh and you know who's going to be in it? Tell me. Ryan Gosling. Oh, wow. Ryan Gosling is the guy who goes and saves the world and I'm just so excited for this to come out. I don't know when it's gonna come out. What network? I think it's gonna be theatrical.

Oh. March 2026. Okay, so you know. Oh, shit. Okay, so a year from now. That's a year. Yeah, damn it. You wanna do some voicemails?

Yeah, let's see what the Y up tears are saying. This is called Temptation Island. Well, you guys are my favorite. Nice. Well, I actually ran into James Taylor and Evan in Nashville a couple years ago. Wow. And I had asked them if you were if they saw you all bit because I knew you were down there. And they said that I had just missed you. So whether they were messing with me or not, that's broken my heart ever since. It was one of my favorite shows is temptation Island. Okay, there is a new episode or

a new season on Netflix right now. And it is so entertaining. And I think you guys would have the funniest recants of those episodes. So consider watching that if you haven't. And then not really my favorite thing, but just a mind blowing movie, Society of the Snow. You guys have not seen that before. I've heard of that.

Definitely worth a watch. Society of the Snow. You guys have not seen that before. I've heard of that. Yeah, I have. It's definitely worth a watch. It's about a rugby team whose plane crashed in the mountains. You did talk about this. I did. It's crazy. All right, well, that's all. Love you guys. Love you. Bye. She's cute. Yeah. Society of the Snow is all about the rugby team, the Uruguayan rugby team who crashes

in Chile and they have to resort to cannibalism to stay alive. That's a fantastic mini series, but also there's a movie called Alive, which they did maybe 25, maybe 30 years ago, which does the exact same story. So I would say if you liked that movie, Lady, you should go watch Alive. Have you ever seen Temptation Island?

No. Me neither. And how did I not get like at least an audition to like host that fucking thing, you know? movie lady you should go watch alive have you ever seen temptation island no me neither and how did i not get like at least an audition to like host that fucking thing you know jeez louise i do want to watch i do want to watch that one though this is called nothingness is good okay okay i love though i love where we're starting here same brandy and wells you often ask why do people look into this podcast? I also think that sometimes while I'm listening, but it's the first podcast that I click on on whatever day it comes out. I'm a very busy mom.

I don't know what day it comes out, but I always click on it right away. Mindlessness. But what I love about you two individually, that Wells and Brandy, you are so much yourselves and you are such opposites. Brandi is the most opinionated, like deliciously bitchy sometimes girl that I just love to listen to. You just have so many strong opinions, this is insane.

And Wells is kind of like me where like, everyone can say what they wanna say, like, and I'm friends with you, I'm friends with you, and you guys are really a yin and a yang. Wells does not get annoyed with you. Sometimes I wonder, is Dreamy mad at Wells? And he's just ripping. He's just ripping off of it.

And it's just funny, and it's so mindless to me, but I also am interested in your strange life, so yeah, just keep doing what you're doing. Just a lot of nothingness is fine. I just wanted to tell you, the nothingness is fine. I just wanted to tell you that nothingness is fine. We enjoy it. And I didn't watch Traders because, I don't know, but you talk so, yeah, you didn't watch The Bachelor. But honestly, I don't care.

All right, goodbye. Amazing. I need this episode to be called Nothingness is Fine. Yeah, it's good. Well, at the end she said nothingness is fine, but yeah, this was called nothingness is good. When I I hear that I'm like, are we the Seinfeld of podcasts where it's like a show about nothing? Possibly. Possibly. That's not a bad thing. No, you know, good company. This one's a special forces reality show. Hi,

Wells and Brandy. My name is Taylor. Long time listener, first time caller. Love it. Listening since like you all weren't consistent and we had to wait forever to get a new episode. Yeah. So glad that that is in the past. So favorite thing is Special Forces. It's on Hulu and it has like some reality stars, but they make them do different like military exercises. Super cool. Our friend Hannah Brown was on last season.

There's three seasons. I just finished the third one. Super good. Always wondered why you all had never watched it or talked about it, but it's one of my favorite things. Okay, thanks, bye. I've never seen it. Watch a little bit of it, like Nick Vial was on it,

he won it, I know that. Oh shit. They've asked me to do the show multiple times and your boy will never be caught dead doing that shit. Okay? Is it about like survival skills? Like what's the premise here? It's run by special forces, like green berets or seals and they make you do like crazy stuff to

see like how strong you are and how tough you are and if you quit you know like. And you're telling me Nick won it? Yeah well Nick's in great shape and he I think he also ran track in college so like he's an athlete. Okay. But it's more of like I think just an athlete. Okay. But it's more of like, I think just like not giving up. Got it. And if you guys know anything about me is that I will be the first to give

up. Okay, so would I. I'm stubborn in a way but I if I'm cold, which I feel like you're in the water, you'd be cold. If I'm cold, out, okay? Same. So, you know, it's just not for me. Yeah, not me either. Matt and I actually were recently talking about like, what if we had a show or went on a show? And he was like, would you ever do the Amazing Race?

And I was like, I don't really know what that is because I'd never seen it. Yeah. Sounds like maybe that one would be doable for me. He was thinking about survivor. I was like, uh, do you just sleep without air conditioning? And he was like, uh, yeah. And I was like, oh, then I'm out.

Like that's a non-negotiable. That I must have air conditioning whilst sleeping or I can't do it. I would like to do the amazing race. There was, there was a time in which I was like petitioning, I think it's on CBS to get me and my brother to do it because we are complete opposites where he's like very type A, everything planned to a T, and I'm obviously very not like that. And I think our dynamic would be really funny. But,

yeah, I think so. Yeah, I think so. Matt didn't explain to me like, what's the travel situation? Like, are you flying places? Are you driving places? Like, what's the T there? Multiple teams race around the globe for a million dollars to amazing locations. Yeah. There's one going on right now. Epis- Season 37. What? What network is this on? Hulu and Netflix.

Wow. Okay. You get a clue or whatever and then then you gotta figure out the clue, and then that's where you gotta go. Sometimes you miss flights, and if you do that, then you get way behind in the race, or you can sabotage people, I believe. And yeah, just trying to get to the end.

Yeah, interesting. Okay. I know, I'd like to do that one. That sounds kinda fun. You got any musics? My sister's putting out like a song a week or something crazy these days. Okay.

We got to play her new song. It's actually one of my favorites on the upcoming album. End of the World? End of the World, yeah. Yeah, it's a bop. It's Brandy's sister, end of the world. So good. I get the Dylans confused. I get Dylan Marlowe and Dylan Gossett confused these days.

Both country singers. Really love Dylan Gossett. I listen to a lot of his stuff. But Dylan Marlowe is the one who has a song out called Picture Perfect. You want me to play it? Yeah, it's also good. Dogs in the arc, pencil marks in the door frame. Wonder what kind of life I've got in mind. Just close your eyes and picture perfect. All right, Dylan Marlowe, picture perfect.

Do you like Jessie Murph at all? I don't know. What do you mean? You haven't heard of Jessie Murph? I don't think so. What? She put out a song called Gucci Mane that's really interesting.

Wanna go out on it? All Alright, what's going on? Um, not a ton. No? Chillin'? Uh, kinda chillin' um, for like another week. And then I start prepping for a bunch of shit coming up. Stagecoach at the end of the month. And then um, actually didn't think about it until after we talked about him but I it's not announced yet I don't really know if I'm

allowed to announce it but anyway but hangout festival is no more it's not happening this year what but Morgan Wallen is doing a festival on the same grounds on the same weekend called sand in My Boots. And I'm playing all three days of the Sand in My Boots. Now I know why you were like that in the beginning of the show. No, I truly like don't dislike Morgan. I love his music and don't know the guy. And like, I'm not trying to be a hater,

but I'm also playing his festival. So come see me. Yeah, all right. It all comes out. And then fuck. And then the next fucking weekend after that is the Sphere, the Sphere kick-off, which is insane. So it's just all about to start happening.

Very nice. Quik Ray, what about you? Let's see. Thursday. So tomorrow I'm going to Augusta to cover the Masters with my other podcast, which I'm excited about. Then I go to New York. I'm going to Edinburgh. I'm actually going to St. Andrews for another golf thing with my boy Chris Harrison. And who knows? Big golf guy. Big golf guy. Getting paid for doing what I love. Love that for you. It's the hack.

Yeah. Amazing. All right, YFT years. We'll see you later. Yeah, we'll see you later. Bye bye. Bye. Bye. I don't wanna talk about it.

I wanna write my way around it. I don't wanna talk about it.
