By the way, you know who came up on my discover on TikTok? Your sister did did with her and cody yeah doing like a dance yeah by the way he's a good dancer i know that's impressive i could never do that i know anyway so then i was like let's do some sleuthing so then i went to your sister's page and i was diving through it and she follows three people cody Noah, and like that's it. So she didn't even follow you, bro. I don't use TikTok.

You just sent me a TikTok video. I don't make TikToks. It doesn't matter. She should be supporting the brand I. I'm not even signed into TikTok right now. Well, then how did you send me that thing? I don't know. I'm not good at TikTok.

I know. I literally was just scrolling through. First of all, it's a black hole very dangerous black hole i just like my time just goes down the drain when i'm on tiktok yeah i'm jealous of people that have the time to make great tiktoks everyone has the time no one's allowed to go anywhere right now i'm busy i will say. You must be busy working out because your Insta posts in bathing suits recently have been pretty fire. Girl is fit. I put on the COVID-19

and Brandeis over here, freaking zero body fat. I can't find my bell. Okay, no one likes everyone's like, girl, what are you doing? And no one likes this answer. I'm cleaning stalls every day, twice a day, holidays, Sundays. There's no days off.

That's what I'm doing. Everyone wants to know the secret. Scoop some horse poo because that's what I'm doing. So pick up shit and you will look like Brandy. Man, that's it? That's all you do? You don't even work out? I don't have time to Brandy. Seriously. Man, that's it? That's all you do? You don't even work out? I don't have time to work out.

Fuck. But yeah, I haven't worked out since, not this March, but the March before is when I stopped going to the gym. Yeah, seriously. I, no joke, run between three and five miles every single day, and it's all I can do to hold off putting on the COVID-19. I thought it was 15. No, it's all I can do to hold off putting on the COVID-19.

I thought it was 15. No, it's COVID's 19 pounds because that's the name of it. That's why it's called that. I thought you said 15 earlier. Yeah, I don't know. Well, yeah. Come work on the farm. Shed a few.

No, I don't want to do that. Literally, I bring friends over here and they're like i want to help i want the farm bod and i'm like okay i'll put you to work they come over here and i'm like all right go dump these uh six manure buckets and they're like oh i got horse poo on me and i'm like all right well either like keep the 10 pounds or like get a little horse poo on you like that's the trade do you want to look good on Instagram? Yeah. Yeah?

Then get your hands into some shit. Exactly. That's pretty cool, I guess. I don't know. Do you have chickens? No, but we want to get some. But here's the thing. I don't know much about chickens, so I had to do a little Google search

because last time my sister was here, she really wanted to do that. like let's get some baby chicks and i was like all right let me just like google the care because let's be real like who's gonna take care of the chickens me so i googled it and it's really high maintenance really when they're babies you have to like keep them at the exact right temperature like with heat lamps over their little like uh thing you put them in and if they're like a the tiniest bit too cold or too hot, they'll die. And they say like for every like eight chicks you get, like one will die. And it just sounds like really high maintenance when they're babies. And I don't want to deal.

So we're waiting until Reinhardt gets here and then he's going to deal. Got it. Why don't you just get full grown chickens? Because we want the baby chickens. Oh, my God. I just want the eggs, man. Well, yeah, we want those too. Can I tell you what, man? Farmer's market eggs, they hit so much harder than just the reg eggs.

And we were thinking when this all started, you couldn't get eggs at the store. It was like eggs and bread were just like non-existent. So if we had chickens, we would have had our own eggs. It'll come shortly. I can't wait to hear all the names you guys come up with. Oh, I can't wait. It'll be fun. Can I name one? Sure. I want one that's named Cock-a-doodle-don't. What are you going to call him? Nickname? Got a nickname for him? Don't. Don't. Cock-a-doodle-do. There's cock-a-doodle-do. Don't. Don't. There's cock-a-doodle-do and cock-a-doodle-don't. Ridiculous. I hope Sarah names your children. I know.

So have you thought of what you're going to name your kids? No. No? Because you're not going to have kids. She's fleeting the fifth here. I'm fleeting the fifth. It's really not PC to say you don't want kids, but. Everything we can say can piss people off you saying i don't fucking want kids

you're worried about that i mean i'm worried about everything these days no man i think it's okay to be like hey man i don't want kids yeah i don't know i mean it's just like especially girls i think like really fantasize about that and like have their names picked out and know how many of each one they want i just like don't think about those things think about the instagram bod that you would have if you had kids though what do you mean well like the farmer shredding you up imagine chasing around kids and lift them up on your hip every day and do no thanks i'd rather scoop poop for the rest of my life wow you'd rather pick up animal shit than bring another child into this world. Listen, I get it.

The world's ending anyways. What does it matter? Yeah, I'm going to space. I've decided. I watched a movie last night. Yeah. Are you proud of me? I actually watched something.

Hold on. Hold on. Should we get into the show if we're going to start doing things like this? Sure. But it's about space. Dope. I want to hear about it. Let's connect the dots.

Okay. But you could start the show, I guess. Dope. I want to hear about it. Let's connect the dots. Okay. But you can start the show, I guess. All right. Is it me or is it you? I think it's. I think it's you. Bros and hoes, you're listening to Your Favorite Thing Podcast with. Wells and Brandy.

Okay. I had a bell five minutes ago and now it's gone. You lost the bell that I got you? It was just here. One of my least favorite things right now is the fact that Brandy's lost the bell I got her. Do you want me to get up and go find the bell? No, I've got a bell. I've got a bell here.

I can dingle-dangle-do for you. Ew. Yeah, that did sound weird. Okay, tell me about this movie in space. First of all, give me a ding. I've been sleeping on HBO Max. Have you? I don't have HBO Max.

I've got HBO Go. Is that not the same thing? I also had HBO Go, and I think it just turned into an HBO Max account because when I went to go click on HBO, all I had was the HBO Max icon, and I was like, do I think it just turned into an HBO Max account because when I went to go click on HBO, all I had was the HBO Max icon. And I was like, do I have that? And then I clicked on it and tried to watch something. It worked. So I'm assuming it just transferred over. Dope. Been sleeping on it. I've been cruising through Hulu and Netflix, been like,

oh, there's nothing to watch. And then I just dawned on me to click on HBO. And they have a lot of good stuff out right now. I'm a sucker for anything Natalie Portman's in. Same. Love her. Also a sucker for anything space. So there's a film out, maybe you've seen it because it came out last year called Lucy in the Sky. Yes. That's the one where she is an astronaut. Yeah. But it's based on like a true story. The way they word it is inspired by real events, you know, basically about like she's an astronaut that she spends so much time in space and she's like so like awe inspired by space that when she comes home, she like totally loses touch with reality and her world. The world seems so lame after being in space.

You know what I mean? Well, I mean, it would, right? I know. It's not like a fast paced movie or anything by any means. But Natalie Portman's great and space. So and Jon Hamm's in it as well. Get old Jon Hamm. I just feel like later in life, maybe not that far away in the future, I'm just going to buy a one-way ticket.

I don't think it works, though. They're going to be like, you're just going to live in space? What about riding horses? They're going to sell one-way flights to Mars to colonize Mars for sure. And you're going to go? I think so. How does Reinhardt feel about this? I haven't told him yet.

How does Reinhardt feel about the no kids going to space ploy? He knows about the no kids ploy. Okay. He wasn't thrilled, but he loves me anyway, which is great news for me. He'll break you down. I think that's what he thinks. So we'll just have to play that one out. He doesn't know about space, but I feel like he's so adventurous.

He's totally going to be up for a space adventure. Yeah. You know what's going to suck, though? I believe that Mars is 17 minutes away in terms of light speed, right? I have no clue. I have done no research. If you want to have a conversation with anybody back on earth, there's a 17 minute delay. Can you imagine how long this fucking show would take if you were on Mars

and I had to wait 17 minutes to hear your response to something? That would be tough. That would suck. Well, you know, the play is to, I gotta wait till Astra croaks. I mean,

I can't take Astra to Mars. The dog's name is Astra. You should absolutely take her there. You think? They'll let me? I don't think they're going to let you do any of this, but. Maybe she would thrive. Who knows?

Maybe. All right, quick PSA for those of you out there who rent. If you haven't heard of Bilt, you're about to thank me. Earning points on rent is now a reality when you pay your rent through Bilt.

Also, I'll Be Gone in the Dark. Have you heard of this? No. Tell me about it. Directed by Academy Award nominee and Emmy-winning director Liz Garbus, this riveting six-part documentary series based on the book of the same name

explores writer Michelle McNamara's investigation into the dark world of a violent predator she dubbed the Golden State Killer, who terrorized California in the 1970s and the 1980s. You heard of the Golden State Killer? I think so. Is this the guy that they found because of like Ancestry.com? I don't know. I confuse the Golden State Killer with the Zodiac Killer because that was also a California thing.

Yeah, I know. But I love a good killer series, you know? Love a good murder. Love a good murder. That's to be controversial that we said that. People love true crime. Glass of wine, true crime in bed by nine. Yeah.

I feel that. Did we talk last week about Epstein? Yes, and I finished it. Shout out. Elaine Maxwell arrested. Ding, ding, ding ding ding ding I know but we got to keep her alive she's gonna I know she's gonna fucking die of COVID or some random thing and then we're never gonna know and she's definitely have been whacked off by somebody

let's just go through because I we finished it last night do you think that Epstein was murdered in jail yes you do absolutely he didn't kill himself he's way too narcissistic i don't know though but he did the he did the will like two days before he before he croaked so there's part of me that's like he just killed himself like it's fun to have like this conspiracy theory thing but it looks like it was kind of planned if he did the will so one thing they didn't really describe much at the end was like it looked like when they showed the paper of his will, it looked like all his money went to his brother. Was that the case? I don't I don't even know.

There's a lot of money, man. It's just so I know. I feel like they should have focused on that a little more. Like, that's a lot of money. We want to know where that's going. I think and I could be wrong. So, guys, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it said in that will that it was all going to go to his brother. And then the brother was the one that hired the investigative coroner or whatever to do an autopsy and dive more into that.

And then he came on at the end and said all that. So I was like, what if the brother hired somebody to basically go in there and threaten him into making that will and then hired somebody to kill him i mean maybe if anyone had him killed it was like bill clinton and you know donald trump and yeah bill gates and just all the elite it's clear that he just really thought he could get away with anything and it's and sadly like he did for so long, you know, he had everyone. I know he had that whole place bugged. Where's all that footage? I know. Do you think he burned it?

Didn't the brother burned it? I think the brothers in on it. I'm telling you. How do they go the whole series without ever mentioning his brother? His brother was never brought up. Didn't even know he had one. And then at the end, they just like lightly breeze over the fact that that's who got his. That's who got his will and his money seems sketchy at one point where he's like do you know virginia

roberts and he's like who virginia roberts can you spell it uh it's a pretty typical spelling i'm gonna just spell it what are you talking about robert says roberts oh man i love how he's like you know i would love to answer that question. However, I'd like to invoke all these amendments that say I get to keep my mouth shut. Yeah, I know. You know, like Bill Clinton's like, I never went to Little James Island. And then there's the one like pool guy or whatever. He's like the tech guy who's like, yeah, I saw him there.

I totally saw him there. It's Bill Clinton. He's like the tech guy who's like, yeah, I saw him there. I totally saw him there. It's Bill Clinton. He's pretty recognizable. I was thinking about like if someone was like, hey, man, you want to jump on this private jet and go down to the Bahamas and hang out at this mansion on an island? I'd be like, fuck, yeah, I do. Let's go. And then being like, oh, no, get me out of here. And you can't leave.

I mean, there's nowhere to go. I know. Scary. I also watched Athlete Day. Have you seen that? No. On Netflix documentary, not a series, documentary about all the sex abuse

that's been going on with USA Gymnastics. Do you know anything about this? Oh, yes. Oh, it's nuts. So sad. That one doctor who's just a monster. Yeah. Like 25 years he's been the team doctor or something crazy and has molested every single one of those girls.

The sad part to me while watching it is like, you know, this one main chick, I forget her name, like maybe Nicole or something, who almost made the U.S. team. And they basically didn't let her on because she filed accusations against the doctor and they were trying to cover it up. So they literally did not let her on the team. So sad. But what's crazy to me is like she came forward. Allie Raisman and all those girls, Simone Biles, all those girls knew she came forward and knew everything that was going on with this poor girl that got cut from the team and kept their mouth shut. And I think that's crazy. That's so sad to me.

I know. their mouth shut. And I think that's crazy. That's so sad to me. I know. And like, if you've learned anything from the Epstein thing is that the power is in numbers. You have to have one for support, the women to support each other. And then also for people to be like, there's a lot of people accusing this person of this thing. So probably it's true. How sad that those girls, all those girls that were on the Olympic team, they've worked so hard to get onto this team and they're so scared of having it taken away that they're scared to speak up. You know, like that's what it is. I mean, that's the sad part to me is that they were so terrified to speak up because they didn't want to lose their spot. And that's so like, that is so sad. Like the level of manipulation for the guy that owns

USA gymnastics to have that kind of like power over those poor girls is just like insane to me. Yeah. But it's like, put yourself in that position. If you've made the U S Olympic team and this girl's speaking up and you want to, but you know, if you do, there's a solid chance you're getting cut from this team somehow. What do you do? And I feel like what you do is you say i'm gonna go to the olympics and then after we go to the olympics maybe i'll say something you know what i mean oh it's so sad i would like to think that if i was a parent of those kids i'd have been like first of all it's more important to get this guy out of here than go to the olympics put yourself in their position no i know but if you're also the olympics but it's also like for simone b, you're kidding me if Simone Biles isn't going to the fucking Olympics.

She's the greatest freaking gymnast in the history of flipping around on shit. You know, you forget how young they are because they're going to the Olympics. But, like, these girls were, like, 15. At 15, like, do you really... I don't know. You just don't know. It's sad. I watched a movie called Irresistible recently.

Have you heard of that? No. Jon Stewart directed it and it was written by him as well. And then it stars Steve Carell, Rose Byrne, and then a bunch of other people. Love Rose Byrne. Same. And Chris Cooper, who's been in like everything. So basically the premise is this farmer goes into like a town hall and kind of gives this speech

about how are we abandoning our brothers, talking about like immigration and stuff. This farmer who's like supposed to be conservative, but he's got a lot of progressive ideas. And this video goes viral. Steve Carell is a Democratic strategist. And he's like, I'm going to make this guy the mayor of this small town. And he's like, I'm going to make this guy the mayor of this small town.

And he's going to be the future of the Democratic Party because he looks like he smells like he talks like a conservative, but he is, you know, in fact, a liberal. And then Rose Byrne is the Republican strategist who comes in to try to beat him. And then it's like about their relationship. And then there's a great twist in the end. So if you're like into political stuff, Irresistible is pretty good. Okay. I'm told Steve Carell. I like political stuff. Yeah. Last night we watched this documentary and I'm telling you, you gotta watch it. Tell me about it. It's called Fantastic Fungi. Oh boy. A documentary all about mushrooms. Fantastic Fungi.

Oh, boy. A documentary all about mushrooms. Brie Larson narrates it. And here's the tag. Fantastic Fungi is a descriptive time-lapse journey about the magical, mysterious, and medicinal world of fungi and their power to heal, sustain, and contribute to the regeneration of life on Earth that began 3.5 billion years ago. Fantastic fungi. The only problem is you have to go to the website to watch it. You can't find it on Netflix or whatever.

So the way that the Earth is, we only see mushrooms that grow out of the ground or grow on trees, right? You don't realize that there's this thing called the mycelium, which is this huge almost root system that's underneath every step you take on the earth underneath there is this mycelium okay so what's crazy about it is the mycelium is fungus mushrooms basically and they connect to all the roots of all the trees making it so like the trees can communicate with one another through the mycelium. If there's a mother tree,

she can communicate with like one of her seedlings. That's a smaller tree. And if that tree needs nutrients, then the mother tree can actually help out the struggling baby tree and vice versa. They can communicate, which is fucking insane. I did not know that, all right? And then all- That is insane. Mushrooms and fungus. The other thing about the is fucking insane. I did not know that. All right. And then all that is insane.

Mushrooms and fungus. The other thing about the mycelium is so it's like this web. And when you look at it, it looks a whole lot like the synapses in our brains. It's like this huge web of stuff, right? So there's some connection there.

Mushrooms and fungus. It's at the beginning and end of everything, right? Like mushrooms, their entire job and fungus, it's at the beginning and end of everything, right? Like mushrooms, their entire job, and fungus, their entire job is to break down dead things, turn it into usable nutrients. And then so then with that, then new life can grow from it. If we didn't have these mushrooms, we'd have so much waste upon waste upon waste because forests would never decay, right?

Like you have to have it they use mushrooms they can like break down oil spills with mushrooms like it just uses all that energy like they had this one study where like toxic dump and they tried all these different things then someone was like let's put a bunch of these mushroom spores on it the mushrooms started breaking that shit down fucking asap and then all a sudden, because it was like all this energy, it was like this huge, crazy amount of growth from mushrooms. And then animals started coming in because there was so much mushrooms and stuff growing there. The animals started coming in, broke it down like completely. It's insane. And then there's also all these studies about like how ancient Eastern medicine has been using this for years and all the medicinal purposes of mushrooms.

And there's so many different variations of mushrooms that we don't even know. We're like discovering new ones every day. The truth of the matter is that, yes, it can be considered an Eastern way of medicine. But what's the most important discovery of the medical society in the past 10,000 years? Fucking penicillin. Guess what that is? That's fucking mold, bro. It's mushrooms.

It's like how all this stuff is connected to all like the medicinal purposes. Like people starting to kind of figure out like how important mushrooms are like in your daily diet. The guy who did the video, who did the documentary, his mom, who's 88 years old, had really severe breast cancer. Lymph nodes were like completely shot. Doctors were like, we can't do surgery. It's too far gone. And she's too old for radiation. He found this certain mushroom, started giving her this certain mushroom. Boom, completely gone. What do you mean? Completely gone. Healed her. I mean, obviously, it's probably not the norm, but whatever. There's this one mushroom called lion's mane mushroom, which is known to help regrow nerves in your body. And so they're now giving that to people who have Alzheimer's

because it helps regrow the nerves that are dying in your brain, right? All this crazy stuff. And then, of course, they have to go into like the magic mushroom portion of the whole thing, you know, the psychedelic stuff. They're starting to finally start to like be able to test this stuff and they're realizing that it can help so much with like depression anxiety actually they have this one guy who goes in you know he's got cancer he's dying he does like a magic mushroom guided trip with his doctor afterwards you don't understand guys my anxiety my depression completely gone for a couple months

you don't have to do it like every like, you know, three or four times a year. And they're like, the problem is that big pharma doesn't like that because like you can't make a whole lot of money off of four pills a year. You know, they want to give you, you know, Xanax every day. And obviously like there's just so much more that needs to be learned. It was just so freaking interesting. Tell me the name of it again. Fantastic Fungi. Fantastic Fungi. Fantastic Fungi.

Yeah. Okay. This isn't proven, but they were trying to figure out how there was this massive expanse in our brains in a very short period of time in terms of like evolution, monkeys to cavemen, you know? Mm-hmm. cavemen you know one of the theories is is that a lot of early man who was kind of like plains hunters you know they'd be going after all this big game and the mushrooms that grow are the magic mushrooms grow in cow poo and antelope poo and one of the theories is is that the early man started eating that and they started kind of tripping out but it's known to like grow the nerve endings in your brain and it's also known to let you kind of perceive things in a different

way obviously and in doing so might have helped the speech because you have to be able to attribute this one thing with this sound and you need to be able to kind of split your brain to be able to do that one thing that kind of separates from everybody else. And they're thinking that maybe that the magic mushroom said something to do with it. Anyways, fascinating stuff. Go check it out. Fantastic fun guy. Did you know that there is a gin made with elephant poo?

A gin? Yeah, like liquor. Oh, really? Yeah, it was launched in South Africa, like created in South Africa. I had it when I was there and it's literally like gin and it's got elephant dung in it. Huh. It's cray cray.

Is it shitty? That was great. I don't even like gin. It was pretty good. So miss my joke. I heard your joke. Heard. You heard my joke.

I heard your joke. Hi, Brandi. We just celebrated the 4th and even though we didn't have anyone over because of, well, the, you know, the pandemic, we did have a nice day outside.

Kevin Hart's new game show. Oh. Do you do this, like, virtually? Yeah, we did, like, a Skype thing. But I think when we get to go back to, like, television studios studios, it'll be like, you know, in a big studio. But we did it all via Skype. It's a game show with celebrities. So it was Kevin Hart and his wife and then Joel McHale and his wife and then Terry Crews and his wife and then Sarah and I.

And then we did all these crazy weird games. And we were basically just playing for money to give to charity. Did you win? No, we didn't win. But we're all. Who won? Joel McHale. But we're all winners.

But what was really funny is, have I ever told you about the problem that I've got where I've got this flap on my esophagus and sometimes food gets stuck in my esophagus? A, that's disgusting. B, I think Miley had this one time. She's blessed because it happens to me a lot So what happens is I eat food And it gets stuck in my esophagus And it won't go down And it's the most painful freaking thing in the world

And there's nothing I can do about it My mouth hurts to water But I can't swallow that spit Because there's no place for the water to go It's just stuck in there It happens a lot when I eat like dried chicken Or if I eat too fast We had to play this game Where we ate a bunch of spaghetti and it happened during the game show.

No. And it got stuck and I was like, oh, no. So I ran to the bathroom. I'm still mic'd up, by the way. And I had to fucking go throw up like six or seven times to like get it out or I was going to be in like serious pain. So we're having to eat all this spaghetti. I leave. Sarah's like having to eat the spaghetti by herself.

I'm in the fucking bathroom. Kevin Hart's like, is Wells okay? Did we kill Wells? Oh my gosh. So funny. You got to be so dramatic. I know. So dramatic.

Yeah, whatever. Hey, how's Carl? He's doing great. I saw a lot of people were asking about him after I shared that he has idiopathic epilepsy. He is fine now. He's rain cloud Carl, though. Kid can't stay healthy. He's always got ear infections because he's bloodhound.

He goes swimming a lot now, which is great, but that's causing the ear infections. He doesn't like to be wet for too long. So he shakes a lot. When he shakes a lot, it sprains his tail. So right now, right now he's got a sprained tail, an ear infection, and he's just on like all the medication in the world to keep him from having a seizure. But Bell and knock on wood, he hasn't had a seizure since like kind of this all started. Oh, wow. That's great. Shout out to phenobarbital. Shout out to drugs.

Shout out to drugs. I should give him some magic mushroom and trip him out. No, I'm just kidding. Seriously. I wouldn't do that. You best believe, sister, that I did go on Amazon and I bought some mushroom tablets for me to take every day. You could just microdose shrooms like everybody else.

No, no, no, no, no. These aren't like magic ones. These are just like. Oh, oh, oh. I mean, just kidding. No one does that. I know. But now I want to do that.

People do it. Really high powered like Silicon Valley people do like microdoses every day. That's crazy. I know. I started watching Ricky Gervais the show afterlife what's that it came out last year and i started it last year and i was like this is really dark like i don't know if i can do this but i'm retrying again anyways here it is after tony's wife dies unexpectedly his nice guy persona is altered into an impulsive devil may care attitude taking his old world by storm basically his wife

dies of cancer and he kind of has like nothing left to live for except for this german shepherd of his before he was like a nice guy and followed the rules and everything and like obviously like that didn't work out for him he lost he lost his wife so now he's just like fuck it i'm gonna say what i want i'm gonna do what i want it's it's dark and it's tough but then it's also like it's ricky gervais so it's funny but it's got heart you're gonna laugh a lot then you're gonna cry a lot it's like uh jojo rabbit you know like that was a movie that made me laugh so hard and also like kind of made me cry a lot so anyways uh afterlife i'm doing it that sounds good actually yeah i like it you like you love really sad shit yeah i do something's wrong with me you love really sad shit it's true you

got anything else i feel like i really brought a lot to the table early in this episode this is impressive i can't believe how much and what you did you want to pivot to music yeah let's pivot you got any musics? Oh, can I shamelessly plug my other podcast real quick? Yeah, sure. How come you never plug your other podcast? Do you like not need the promotion on this podcast? Your other podcast is so great.

No, I just feel bad because this is ours. And so I wouldn't want to use this platform to send people away from Mars. But I would. Just kidding. Maybe the people, maybe the YFTers love you so much they want to hear from you twice a week, Wells. Okay, I'll promote mine. Do yours first. My mom and I have a podcast

called Sorry We're Stoned. I really feel like last week's episode was our best yet. She got really, really high beforehand because we were having technical difficulties, per usual, so she had like 20 minutes to get really stoned before we were having technical difficulties per usual. So she had like 20 minutes to get really stoned before we even started and it really made the episode great. You'll be happy to know that we have moved away from criticizing your fashion choices and criticized my friend Matt's fashion choices and we did a whole segment on men's fashion.

Right. Really fun. And then my mom had her high school best friend Missy on as our guest. And her and Missy are a hoot. Like if you like hearing my mom talk like this, then listen this week because you get to hear two people talk like that. And they're nuts. But great episode. So if you're looking for another podcast or if you like me enough to listen to me twice a week, check it out.

It's called Sorry We're Stoned. I don't get stoned though, but Tish does. You should get stoned one episode. Just see what happens. Oh, that sounds bad. Or do some magic mushrooms. Honestly, from everything you said, it sounded pretty good.

Watch the documentary. Documentary is really, really cool. I'm going to. My other podcast is called The Wells Cast. Basically, it's fantasy people coming on and we discover their origin story. It's always very interesting to me how people got to where they are now. Like, how did you hack the system?

Like, what did you do? What were the steps you took to get the blue check mark, to get on that hit show? Like, what happened? And obviously it's a lot luck and then it's a lot of hard work and hustle. And that's a common denominator of everybody is that they really, really worked hard. I mean, so many people come up to me and they're like, how did you do all this? Granted, yeah, I went on The Bachelor and that helped,

but like I had this like big radio career long before any of that. And I worked really, really hard. And so I was like, we should do a show where people understand, can see what the blueprints are of success. Because I think a lot of people think that, like, fame and success is an overnight thing. And, like, not the case, bro.

Like, it takes a lot of work and a lot of hustle and a lot of sacrifices. So, anyways, it's called The Wells Cast. I mean, obviously, they're really interesting. They're all famous people. Movie stars, TV stars, musicians, authors, athletes and stuff like that. So, yeah, Wells Casco. Check it out. Sick, bro.

Wait, hold on real quick. Kanye 2020. Oh, I know. I'm pretty sure it's a joke. But Paris Hilton also posted something about running. I was like, oh, my Lord. Have you ever seen the movie Idiocracy? No.

OK, it's funny. You should see it. Luke Wilson's in it. Elect No. Okay. It's funny. You should see it. Luke Wilson's in it. Electrolytes. It's what plants crave. It's like takes place in the future and it's like how the world has just become so dumb. Everyone has become so stupid. And I feel like we're pivoting towards that.

I would agree. Kanye West for president? I know. I don't know. Aren't Kanye and Trump homies though? I know. That's what's weird about it. It's like Trump, like, hey, man, you go run, pull votes away from Biden. Like,

I don't even know. And I never talk politics. And I know that this is going to be everyone's going to hate me for this or whatever. You got Donald Trump on one side. You got Joe Biden on the other side. It's got two guys who like when they talk, make zero sense. Both of them. And then you got Kanye West. Can we just have one person in there that makes some sense when they talk? Just some sense. Not a lot. Just some any sense. Just a little bit of sense.

Is it too much to ask? Is it too much to ask? When they talk, you're like, okay, I understand what you're talking about. Not even like I agree with what you're saying. I just want, okay, I actually know what you're talking about. Not even like I agree with what you're saying. I just want, okay, I know. I actually know what you're talking about. You know who my mom thinks should run? Keisha Bottoms, the mayor of Atlanta. My mom thinks she should run. Why? She's a big fan, but just said that every time she comes on television or whatever, she's just like really well-spoken, really smart. She's a black woman and it would be so sick to have a black woman president.

Can she say a sentence that makes some sense? Yes, she's very well spoken. She's very smart. Google her. If you can say hello, my name is X, Y, and Z and the sky is blue, I could be like, alright, that made sense.

I can vote for this person. I tweeted out like everybody, 2020 couldn't get any worse and then kanye hold my beer i saw that yeah i saw that he's not really gonna run is he i mean i don't know i don't know there's no way can you imagine kanye west as the president of the united states and that would make kim kardashian float us how crazy would that be? FLOTUS. That would be, I don't, it's too much. I'm going to space.

Goodbye. See you later. Going right now. Before you do, I wanted to play a song. Okay. Have you heard Ben Fold's new song about the world? I also haven't heard the name Ben Folds in a few years. What?

I mean, you know, he's a throwback artist at this point. Normally, we only play like 30 seconds. And at the risk of being sued, I want to play more of this because this song that Ben Folds wrote is so good.

It's called 2020. You get sued, you're paying the lawyer fees. I know. I feel like Ben Folds is cool enough to know that we're just trying to promote. And like, this song is so good. Now it's June, we're just halfway done

2020 here, we having fun How many years will we try to cram into one? You thought we'd be living 1918 again But we messed that up so bad We'd be living 1918 again. But we messed that up so bad, God had to toss 1930 in. As the sun rose on 1968 this morning, a tweet from the John,

please let's not add the Civil War at all. How many years will we cram into one? Oh boy, how much more will she take? Boys, hope you enjoy your beautiful tax break. Anyways, like Ben Folds is just so smart. Like the way that he like looks at it, like this year is full of so many of our shitty years in like our country's history you know like like 1918 that was spanish flu and then 1930 the next one's great depression then 68 was like civil rights stuff and then you know it's like we've jammed so much into this one year and like the

way that he was able to do it in a kind of theatrical sing-song way i was like damn that was good ben folds very theatrical yeah you anything i did see that laney they have a new song out this is the last time let's do the things we always do i go to the mall and buy some shoes i don't want to cry i'm bad at goodbye If this is the last time Hey dad, what's up? Miss you so much Yeah, the shade of your hair has changed But I look up to you the same

Taught me how to fish, taught me how to ride a bike. Taught me how to love, how to treat a woman right. Life is flying by and it's hitting me now. I hope it's not. But if this is the last time, please come close. I love you with all my heart. Well, Lainey, it's a good chance this is the last time. I'm pretty sure the world's ending.

Did you see the fucking green meteor over India? No, but I'm going to Google it right this second. Oh, my God, dude. Green meteor? Green meteor over India. Brilliant green meteor lights up Indiaia's sky islands that's an alien for sure bro oh for sure this thing is cool the alien came down and was like what's going on wait what nope we're out we'll be back in a couple hundred years when you guys have all died out and

I don't think aliens send travel itinerary. I don't think that's how it works. There's some video. Wait. Large green meteor streaks through Florida and Georgia. That was in 2019. Maybe this is a regular

occurrence. Maybe. Alright. Let's get out of here. Alright. Gotta go. See ya. Bye. All right. Let's get out of here. All right. Got to go. See you. Bye, Brandi. Here was one in Poland in 2015. It was a regular occurrence.

The aliens had been saying what's up for a while. Yeah. But they definitely came down and they were like, what? Peace out, yo. They're like, hey, who's running for president? Kanye West? Okay, we'll come back later. Gotta go.

Pray we get through, but hey, don't hold your breath. Cause there's plenty left to wreck. We got six months left. How many years? How many years will we try? How many years will we try to cram into one?
