What's up, everybody? Everyone having a good one? You having a good one? Me, not so bad. I'm living it. I'll tell you what, though. I'm getting to the point of my being an old person where other people's beds are fucking me up. Like I went and visited my dad last week and he had a pullout couch. I mean, right there, right there. Why don't you just go
Starting point is 00:01:52 ahead and fucking flare up the sciatica? Let's just fuck up the scoliosis down there, baby. Modern science is so extremely advanced. We're talking particle physics, but you can't figure out the fucking pull-out bed? Really? You're telling me that we understand quantum mechanics, but we can't figure out a fucking pull-out bed? We can make a meatball out of extinct woolly mammoth meat, but you can't figure out a pull-out bed?
Starting point is 00:02:21 I'll tell you what, scientists, some of your dad should have pulled out. Yeah, that's what I think. Some of your dad should have pulled out before making you because you can't figure out how to make a pull-out bed. What the fuck? It's so painful. Now my back hurts. So that's what's happening. There's nothing I can do about it. Just old now, which is disappointing. But you know, it just is what it is. I'm an old person now and it's like part of my multivitamin is fucking Advil because everything hurts all the time. Physically, yes.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Emotionally, yes. They need Advil for emotional pain. Oh, they do. It's called Xanax, I guess. Or weed. Or alcohol. That's what it is. Alcohol.
Starting point is 00:03:02 That should be the next alcohol slogan campaign. Alcohol. For when you the next alcohol slogan campaign. Alcohol. For when you're emotionally in pain. Do you take Advil when your body hurts? Well, let me suggest alcohol for when your emotions hurt. Let's call the brand I. Let's color up. Sup.
Starting point is 00:03:22 What's up? What's up? How you doing? Um, fine. Yeah? Yeah, you know. Just fine? Yeah, just same shit, different week, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:03:33 Yeah, I guess that's true. What about you? I'm doing great, other than I slept on a pullout bed recently, and then an Airbnb bed, and then I fucked my back up. So, you know, it's always something with this back. Yeah. You need to get that figured out. Maybe. I don't know how to do that. How do I get that figured out? I think I need to stretch more. That sounds like a great idea. Do you stretch every day? No, but I really should. And I really, I love stretching more than anything. And I've, I really need to do it more. Yeah. I've got like a to-do list that I, you know, I knock off every day and it's like, you know,
Starting point is 00:04:09 I need to work out. I need to, you know, sit in the sauna and try to meditate, do some breath work. Now I need to- Can you stretch in the sauna? No, my sauna's not big enough for that. I need to do that. Anyways, but it's just like one more thing. It's, you're just, I'm just adding on things to my life.
Starting point is 00:04:32 Whereas in my twenties, I just fucking thrived yeah well you know i lived off ramen and just pure testosterone and now it's green juice and fucking multivitamins and i don't like that i don't like where i've gone to i want to go back do you Do you? I don't know. Not really. I mean, I wish I, there are some things I wish I had from back then and it's only going to get worse, you know? Yeah. It's really going to get worse. But here we are. Getting old is just not it, you know?
Starting point is 00:04:54 It's not, it's not it. But I have had quite the past couple, like the last week has been quite great. Really? And it's only getting better. What's going on? Well, last episode, I was up in a Monterey, Carmel area.
Starting point is 00:05:09 Yeah. Because I went and played at Cypress Point Golf Club. It is, I would say, one of the top two most exclusive golf clubs in the country. Oh, brother. So there's Augusta and there's Cypress. They're kind of neck and neck. I never played it before and I got to play it
Starting point is 00:05:26 and it really lived up to everything that I hoped for and more and I highly recommend trying to get your ass out there. It's very hard to get on because there's not a lot of members but if you ever can do it,
Starting point is 00:05:36 highly recommend it if you're a golf person. Very, very cool. I got to play. I played with my brother and we put a match and it came down to 18 so it was exciting for everybody
Starting point is 00:05:44 and I won, which is nice. Yeah, so there we go on that. Wow. Had an absolutely fantastic time. Beautiful weather. 15, 16, 17. What amazing holes. Yada, yada, yada.
Starting point is 00:05:55 No one really gives a shit. And then we came back. We went to Joshua Tree. Ooh, that's right. You got to go to Pappy and Harriet's, right? Yep. We went to Pappy and Harriet's, right? Yep. We went to Pappy and Harriet's, the pioneer town. And let me just say this. If you guys ever have a chance to come to
Starting point is 00:06:10 California, or more specifically Southern California, make a little sojourn, if you will, a little day trip or a couple day trip to Joshua Tree. It is so fun. We had the most amazing time. We got a cool little Airbnb. We went to go see a show at Pappy and Harris. We went and saw my buddy, uh, Raylan Baxter and Liz Cooper, old school Nashville names were playing over there at Pappy and Harris. It was absolutely packed. The drinks were flowing. So we went and saw the show. That was so much fun. Got wasty faced. And then woke up the next morning. I was hung like a donkey. Okay. Very, very hung. And you know what I did? I said, guys, sit tight. You're knight in shining armor. Your culinary warrior is on the case. And I drove over to Vaughn's and I got all the fixings for Eggs Benny. And I brought it back to the house and your
Starting point is 00:07:00 boy cooked up an amazing brunch. I got a bunch of champagne and orange juice. We have mimosas. Wow. I made eggs benny and I brought some caviar because your boy is fancy. Oh. Dollop that on top there. Everyone, so this is the thing. Everyone's always in the DMs when I make eggs benny.
Starting point is 00:07:18 How do you poach eggs? What is a secret to poaching eggs? Poaching eggs is the easiest fucking thing in the world. It's like one trick that no one knows. And once you know this trick, it's become so easy. Are you going to tell us? Yes. So people stop asking me this question. All you have to do is add vinegar to your water. If you put vinegar in your water, it congeals the eggs. Like everyone's like, you need to do the spiral technique. so the eggs spin around and they they conform good no you don't need to do that shit you get some vinegar you put that in there plop your eggs in there get a slotted spoon pull it out touch it when you
Starting point is 00:07:56 touch the yolk and it's you can tell it's like jammy in there i don't like this gesture once you do that then you put it on a little bit of napkin, you dry it off, and then you're good to go. And then also, the other thing, making hollandaise sauce, guys, yes, it's very, very delicate because you can break the sauce or you can put too hot of butter into the yolk sauce and it can almost cook it. Here's my secret to that. Go to the aisle where they have different sauce packets, au jus sauce packets or gravy sauce packets or Bearnaise sauce packets. There's also one for hollandaise.
Starting point is 00:08:32 Grab that. I know it's kind of cheating, but no one knows. And you can't fuck it up. You throw that in a little sauce pan with some milk and some butter. You whisk that up, let it heat up. And boy, oh boy, do you have perfect Bearnaise or perfect hollandaise sauce. And that's all you, and then, you know, get Canadian bacon and some butter you whisk that up let it heat up and boy oh boy do you have perfect bernese or perfect hollandaise sauce and that's all you and then you know get canadian bacon and some
Starting point is 00:08:48 english muffins and you've taken what everyone could it thinks is the most difficult fucking meal to make which is eggs benny and you've done it and you look like a king so anyways i did that and that was amazing and very very good and then we went to, is it Red Dog Saloon? Oh, I think so. In Pioneertown, like across the way from Pappy and Harriet's is this old saloon that has the most fire fucking tacos you've ever had in your entire life. Dude, the beef tacos, just get those.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Like don't get the chicken tinga. Don't fuck with that. Just get the beef tacos, just get those. Don't get the chicken tinga. Don't fuck with that. Just get the beef ones. The salsa and guac is really good. Also, the quesadilla is great because it's like a quesadilla, and then they put more cheese on it, and then they fry the cheese. Yum. That sounds great.
Starting point is 00:09:41 So we did that. We got some drinks. We got some delicious drinks. We all dressed up like cowboys. I got to look for you. I went full cowboy. Is this going to make it to Instagram? Yeah, but here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Sarah took all the pictures of me, and she's not releasing them. Why not? I think she's, I think this is going to, she's going to like, you know, she's like waiting for a birthday to post that, you know, but I'm like, I need that content. We need them now. I know. Anyways. So we did that.
Starting point is 00:10:10 That was amazing. Then we went home, we watched some basketball and then, you know, we went full desert life. We went on a little bit of a walk. We got all turned up. Then we drove back yesterday and it was lovely. I highly recommend Joshua Tree. Yeah. Very awesome.
Starting point is 00:10:26 Love that for you. Thank you. You've been there, right? I have. It's lovely. Great vintage shopping. Yes. If you're into that.
Starting point is 00:10:38 They've always got like, what's the little flea market that's at the gas station there all the time? Great spot to get vintage tees, leather jackets, stuff like that. Yeah. At Red Dog Sloan, leather jackets, stuff like that. Yeah. At Red Dog Sloan, there was this, a group of people, like one guy was in like very tight jeans and then he was wearing a bomber jacket, but that was it, like no shirt underneath. And then there was a girl there with a very cool hat. I was pretty sure they were in a band of some sort
Starting point is 00:10:59 and I just wanted to be friends with them. They were like either in Hound Mouth or like Jamestown Revival, a band that like I want to be friends with these people. And like either in Hound Mouth or like Jamestown Revival, a band that like I want to be friends with these people. And I didn't have the guts to go up there. Oh, why not? I don't know. You know, I wasn't so comfortable in my new boot goofing outfit.
Starting point is 00:11:17 I see. But also I dusted off some cowboy boots I hadn't worn since my Nashville days. And I say, I get it. I get why all you Southerners are wearing cowboy boots. Your boy's getting like three extra inches. I'm over here. I'm an Adonis. I'm a giant over here in cowboy boots.
Starting point is 00:11:36 I'm looking down on everybody. No kidding. Everyone's wearing cowboy boots. They are heels for men. They are. That is hilarious. We were just living in the desert, man. Doing it up.
Starting point is 00:11:47 We were just doing it, doing it up. Wow. Yeah. I'm jealous. Sounds fun. It was so much fun. And then it only gets better. Oh, did you see an alien?
Starting point is 00:11:58 No. Oh, man. I know. That's where I hoped this was going. I feel like that's alien territory out there. For sure. Absolutely. You know? Yeah. And then I'm drinking out of my I hoped this was going. I feel like that's alien territory out there. For sure, absolutely. You know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:07 And then I'm drinking out of my master's cup right now because Sarah and I are going to the masters at the end of the week. The masters. So next time you hear my voice, I'm gonna have a full recap on something that no one cares about, which is a tradition unlike any other, the masters.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Great, can't wait. You know, I'll be on the edge of my seat. Yeah. Edge of my seat. Should we start the show or? I think we should start the show. Yeah. Go for it. Bros and hoes.

Starting point is 00:15:10 Do it. Did you watch all of The Bachelor stuff? Yeah, I did. Thoughts? I mean, obviously, we knew he was picking Katie. Yeah. That's number one. And from what I gather from just tidbits I get on TikTok, Gabby also knew he was picking Katie.
Starting point is 00:15:27 Yeah. Well, there's that one scene when she arrives there and she steps out into mud and she's like, you need to make sure that Katie. And so. You know that the first person there is the one that's getting dumped, you know? Right. Yeah. So she knew that Katie was coming later, right? I think the last rose ceremony
Starting point is 00:15:49 where he had just like spilled the fricking tea about how they had sex and he wasn't even looking at her, you know? And was like, I think that's when she really knew, I think. Yeah. And so I think from then on, she probably was like, you know, from what I've seen on
Starting point is 00:16:05 TikTok or whatever, she's done a couple interviews where she says that she stayed so that Katie didn't feel like she was just the like automatic choice. Right. Which that may that there may be a part of her that did do that. But I also think there was a part of her that was holding on to like one last shred of hope that it was maybe her. But I think she probably just knew. And so, yeah, I mean, getting out in the mud or whatever. of her that was holding on to like one last shred of hope that it was maybe her yeah but i think like she probably just knew and so yeah i mean getting out in the mud or whatever she made that
Starting point is 00:16:30 comment and like at first i was like i'm a little surprised they left this in the show yeah um but also it's juicy yeah and so that's obviously why they left it in but it's definitely like right in the line of like should they have left that in there i don't know yeah it's interesting to keep in there it's a funny line because it comes across a little bitchy like she you can tell she's a no i would be annoyed too if i was in like nice like jimmy chews or something and they fucking stop in front of a mub pit i'm like dude so it comes across as a little like you can't why would you do this but then when you look at it you're like oh she's being like so selfless because she knows the other girl is going to be coming and wants to make sure that like that moment doesn't happen for her. There's a weird thing, a mean edit and a nice edit at the same time.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Yeah, it was interesting. Yeah. So I just feel like if she had zero hope that he might pick her, I really just can't imagine her like walking out there and letting him start talking and going through all that if she really fucking knew that it wasn't her. You know what I mean? Like without a doubt. So I think there was a little bit of like a tiny shred of hope that like maybe I'm wrong and maybe he's going to pick me. Yeah. I'm wrong and maybe he's gonna pick me yeah or maybe it's like we really need you to go out there so it doesn't look like a Katie was just the only one left because we we've had that the past couple seasons you think producers told her that I don't know I I would be like fuck you and your show I
Starting point is 00:17:56 know I'm not gonna embarrass myself I kind of wanted her like when so when she gets dumped and she's like just stop just don't I don't need that which I was like, just stop. Just don't. I don't need that. Which I was like, good for you, man. You don't fucking need that. Agree. I so badly want someone to be like, I don't need you to walk me home either. Like walk me to the car. Can I walk you out? No, you can't.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Just fucking go away. You just dumped me. I don't need you to like, I'm not going to get mugged on the way from. Yeah. And he's like, there was like an awkward moment where he was like, do I open the door for her? Do I not? Oh yeah. She was like, fuck, I'm not going to open the door for you.
Starting point is 00:18:26 I was like, just buddy, just like quit while you're behind. I know. This is not good. There's a part of me that wonders if Ariel was someone he liked more. Whatever. Ariel. Look at this stuff. Isn't it neat?
Starting point is 00:18:39 I wonder if he liked her more and getting rid of her the week before is a way to be like it's an easier decision for me to make with katie yeah you know like i want i could see that totally i can see that too but then i think wow it's so fucked up because the other one you fucked is the one that you weren't you weren't into i know i was about it. Gabby's super sweet, very beautiful, but she's obviously very insecure. And there are a lot of guys out there who prey on women who are insecure. Like, you know, you go to the bar and you look for the one who's, you can tell is insecure and you're like, this is going to be an easy chick for me to take down. I knew guys like that and stuff. And there's a little bit of that, like this like wounded bird thing. And I'm not so
Starting point is 00:19:31 surprised that it went down that way. But then also people who are insecure tend to give more of themselves than they should because of their insecurity so i'm not saying it's fully fully like um zach's fault or whatnot but i was just thinking about like the psychology of like what went down and how it went down does that make sense yeah totally yeah is that bad to say i don't think so i mean i feel like she's she's been outspoken about the fact that she's insecure um yeah and has insecurities and struggles with that um so i think that's a fair assessment and i i respect the fact that she's that self-aware and and you know and like okay to talk about that i think that's very cool of her so i think that's fair to say
Starting point is 00:20:16 i just feel bad because she is like such a wear a heart on your sleeve person who's got issues and this is this wasn't going to be something that's going to help her. Like this is going to cause some more trauma for her down the road. Yeah. So. I know. Oh man. But it was a great season.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Yeah, it was. I don't know that she will go, but I would love for her to go to paradise and like get redemption and meet some hotties. And you know, if she does go and I'm down there slinging drinks, and like get redemption and meet some hotties. And you know. If she does go and I'm down there slinging drinks, I need to set up a meeting with her to be like,
Starting point is 00:20:51 all right, we need to make sure that you're the one in power here. You need to know your worth here. And let me take you under my wing and make sure you aren't with the douchers. Exactly. Yeah. I'm rooting for her.
Starting point is 00:21:06 And now they're on a charity. They're just already filming charity. Crazy. Craziness. And we'll see how that goes. I saw the first night they brought in the brother and they're doing Undercover Brother. That's such a good bit.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Way to go. Love it. It is. What's the tea on like Mike Fleiss stepped down? Like everyone's got things to say about that. Do you have anything to say about that? I don't really. Do you think the show is going to change dramatically or no?
Starting point is 00:21:32 No, I don't. Got it. I think I'm like not ready to speak about it. I do have a lot of thoughts on it, but I'm not sure if I should speak. I probably should for like some press about it. So yeah, I have thoughts. I don't know if I'm ready to talk about them, but I don't sure if I should speak on it. I probably should for some press about it. So yeah, I have thoughts. I don't know if I'm ready to talk about them, but I don't think the show will change a whole lot.
Starting point is 00:21:50 I have a lot of fucking thoughts about it. Well, I'm sure you do. But maybe that's when I write my book. Seriously. You should write a book. I know. I've got so much good shit. Yeah, you really should write a book.
Starting point is 00:22:03 I really do. Okay, is that enough Batch for now? I think so. Speaking of batch, I'm going on Jason Tardik's podcast later today. Oh, cute. I love Jason. Trading Secrets. Do you have anything to like bring to that podcast? That's exactly what I said. I said, Jason, I'm totally down to help and you know, whatever. But like, I'm not like a finance guy. Like I i'm not gonna be able to give you any fucking tea on like what you should do with your nfts or like you know inflation sell buy sell crypto i i like i don't i'm like dude he's like no it's fine i'm like okay i don't have anything to talk to you about i've seen some of the clips that like people people go on there they'll say like how much they make from like doing.
Starting point is 00:22:47 I'm not going to tell you that. That's. No. Yeah. So it's going to be the most. Good luck to you. Yeah. It's the most boring episode.
Starting point is 00:22:55 Good luck to you. Here's my financial suggestion to all you kids out there. Marry a rich woman. That's my suggestion. Oh God, that's good. Succession, please tell me you're caught up. I am not. I've been busy binging the new season of Love is Blind.
Starting point is 00:23:16 Please tell me you've watched it. I've watched a little bit of it, and that one woman is just the worst person in the world. It's so Goodwells. You have to watch the whole, you have to catch up because it is the best season of this show they've ever had. It is so good.
Starting point is 00:23:31 And it's two, there's two girls, right? It's the blonde girl and the brunette girl who are just fucking terrible. Well, yes. And it just gets so juicy. Like I feel like this season they've really like expedited the pod part of the show.
Starting point is 00:23:46 Like I feel like we didn't see as much of the pods and now we're seeing more of the like in real life and it's so much better that way. The pods get a little boring for me and monotonous. Man, it's so good. Everyone's like, first of all, the Irina is the dark haired girl. Man, she, what are you doing? Like what are you doing? Like, what are you doing? You don't like this guy at all. It's written all over your face the minute you meet and you agree to go to Mexico and
Starting point is 00:24:12 you're trying to stick it out for what? Like you clearly hate the guy. And I can't believe this guy has sat around Mexico and let her treat him this way when clearly he's thinking about bliss the whole time and knows he fucked up and should have picked bliss it's just insane um and then you got micah over here this blonde chick who god her guy is actually like kind of cute i feel like i think he's very handsome we were yeah we were watching very nerdy but for sure he's very cute and like he's a scientist that's hot i think he's more handsomedy. For sure. He's very cute. And he's a scientist.
Starting point is 00:24:46 That's hot. I think he's more handsome than she is pretty. Oh, way more. I think that he's out of her league. I do think he could stand to do a couple of chest presses in the gym. That was my only note there. Just a couple. I stand a skinny king, okay?
Starting point is 00:25:04 Okay. I mean, just a couple um but he's adorable and i i do i agree i think he's he's a little bit out of her league but i think she thinks she's hot shit i don't know it's just very interesting that everyone's kind of going for somebody else you know once they get out of these pods and it's making for great television and it gets even better once they get back to seattle which you're probably not that far it's getting juicy but I will say like there are a lot of girls on this show I think they're making us look bad these chicks are making us look bad I feel like most of the guys are very genuine you know quote unquote there for the right reasons
Starting point is 00:25:39 from what I can tell good guys and that have ended up with these girls that I think just want to be on tv and think they're hot shit I don't't like, it makes great television, but like, I don't love it for these dudes. And you know, this is the only time I'll say this. I feel like the roles have has swapped here and the women, some of these women are trash. Yeah. You know, you always their men like trash. Yeah. You talk about men being trash a lot on this show because you're working through some trauma and I understand that, but I telling the truth no i i agree with you but i also think there's a two-way street of there's a lot of trash ladies out there but they think they're hot shit and they're not maybe they'll watch this back and get a big fat reality check i don't know
Starting point is 00:26:19 but yeah i just am like man guys like sweet sweet marsh over here. I don't know if you're this far in to where Marshall and his woman are having issues in Seattle. But like I could have told you from day one that that girl is a little bit of an emotional basket case. And Marshall is just so sweet. And spoiler alert if you care about that on this show. But, you know, they're getting to Seattle and all of a sudden Jackie, his woman, is woman is like i guess off camera has said i need you to be more aggressive in the bedroom and that's caused like this whole like chasm in their relationship and he's like i'm just not that person and it's just that classic tale of like girls that are so used to toxic relationships that that's what they want and that's what they crave and and like when this good guy that's willing to treat you great is like there in front of you like you don't want
Starting point is 00:27:09 it because you want the toxic shit you know and that's kind of what she's doing and it's just like oh sweet Marshall just this girl's a little out of his league but he is a cute guy and he's very sweet and I just feel like he deserves better but it's funny like I wish this was like the um the perfect match show where you could go into the little uh the room and like and and like move everybody around and pair them with different people because i feel like a lot of these good dudes need to be paired with some of these good girls that i don't i don't know i just wish i could like help everybody out and be like okay no you two need to be together and you two need to be together. You two. Brett and his woman. I'm blanking on her name.
Starting point is 00:27:45 Tiffany, they are so fucking cute. First of all, girl, get it. He is smoking hot. Smoking hot. And she's amazing and so beautiful. And I just love them together. So far, no hiccups. But from what I see in the previews, it looks like their wedding day might have some tears.
Starting point is 00:28:03 And if they don't end up together i'm going to be very upset okay very upset yeah it's great if you haven't seen this new season of love is blind highly recommend jump on it well i know that you aren't caught up but i'm wearing my succession i wondered what that was i like that shirt yeah i'm wearing it for today because i thought we were gonna get to talk about it and you know what that was. I like that shirt. Yeah. I'm wearing it for today because I thought we were going to get to talk about it. And you know what? I don't even care that you're not even caught up because I'm going to talk about it because it's so... Can I unplug my earpiece? No. You have
Starting point is 00:28:31 to be involved in this. No, no, no. But I don't want you to ruin it. I won't ruin anything. I'm just going to say... Don't ruin it. I'm not going to ruin anything. Okay. So last year, last time the show was out, I was like, I want Roman to be the one who takes over. I love his character.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Kieran Culkin's so freaking good. He is good. Like, Kendall annoys me. Shiv really annoys me. I actually like Connor. I feel bad for Connor. What? No, I do not feel bad for Connor.
Starting point is 00:29:01 Why? He's an idiot. He is, but I feel bad for him. But anyways, I want, Roman's the one who I'm like, I want him to be the guy. And then, you know, the kids kind of throw this coup at the end of last season, the beginning of the new one, where they're all banding together against their father, which I'm like, great. Either I want Roman to take over or I want Tom and Greg to take over.
Starting point is 00:29:23 I mean, I love Tom and Greg. Tom and Greg. They're the best mean, I love Tom and Greg. Tom and Greg. They're the best. Dude, the fucking disgusting brothers. They're so fucking great. The sex tape. Great mix. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:29:36 Oh, then he goes and tells fucking Brian Cox's character. Oh, my God. It's so fucking funny. I think that, and I won't ruin anything, but after this last episode, I think that Roman does have a shot. You think? Now, yes, I do. I don't know the game that Logan's playing here.
Starting point is 00:29:53 He's too smart. I know he's doing some things that are gonna fuck these kids over. For sure. He's acting like he comes in like hat in hand, apology stuff in this most recent episode. And you're like, I'm not buying this. Something's a little fishy here, Logan.
Starting point is 00:30:11 And I love it. Like this whole show is predicated on like the fact that we thought Logan was going to die. And now he's just like won't die. I mean, they can't kill him. He's the center of the show. Oh, for sure. They were like any day now he's going to fuck it out. Oh, for sure.
Starting point is 00:30:22 They were like, any day now, he's going to fuck it up. The whole last season, when he went out to the Skarsgård guy, he was like almost passing out there. And you're like, Jesus, I think he's going to die. Anyways, he's not going to die anytime soon. Anyways, the show is so great. And just catch up, please. How many episodes are out?
Starting point is 00:30:39 One or two? Two. Two. And I know that you're not watching Ted Lasso, but it's so freaking good. And I'm not telling anybody anything they don't know except you I suppose but Ted Lasso's so great and they've got a new character that is so good Zava and I'm pretty sure it's based on Zoltan Ibrahimovic or whatever he's a soccer player and I think he now plays for the LA Galaxy. He comes to Richland to play,
Starting point is 00:31:09 and he is so great addition to the team. And Jamie Tartt's so upset about it. I freaking love this season. And I just can't wait for Ted to take down Nathan. It's going to be so good. Nate's going down. How do you not watch his show? I just didn't wait for Ted to take down Nathan. It's going to be so good. Nate's going down. How do you not watch his show? I just didn't like it.
Starting point is 00:31:30 You're crazy. I couldn't even get through season one. How many are there? I don't know, three? Ugh. Oh, by the way, in Joshua Tree, the girls wanted to play nothing but the soundtrack to Daisy Jones. Oh, it's so good. I know.
Starting point is 00:31:45 We never talked about the ending. I haven't watched it. I know. You don't watch it, so I haven't really talked a whole lot about the intricacies of it. I did chat about it on Sorry We're Stoned a little bit. But, oh my God, the ending is truly so good. I didn't read the book part of me now wants to go back and read it I'm sure it's very similar because everybody that did read the books loves
Starting point is 00:32:11 the show so that usually means that they didn't stray too far from it um but from what I understand the ending is very different and I love what they did with the end of the show I feel like it made the whole thing because even though the show was wonderful, you know, you're kind of like, okay, well, how does this end? Is this going to be like a little anticlimactic? You know, they kind of foreshadow the whole time that the band breaks up, you know, after their first record and that they don't go on.
Starting point is 00:32:38 So you're like, all right, well, I already know that. So like, what's the loophole here? And then the twist, nice little twist at the end. Very good. I don't cry so i didn't cry but you know i got emotional yeah felt some feelings you know so that was nice but uh it is so good i've been listening to the soundtrack too rumor has it i don't know if it's true but rumor has it they might actually play some live shows which would be so sick so we'll see i hope they
Starting point is 00:33:02 do i think that would be awesome and they would obviously sell out wherever they play because everyone's begging for it. But great show. If you haven't seen Daisy Jones and the Six on Amazon, one of the best shows I've seen. And so that's Elvis's granddaughter? Yeah, Riley. And then Finnick from Hunger Games. He's a pretty good singer. He's great.
Starting point is 00:33:23 And, you know, neither one of them had ever sang before like no experience whatsoever out of tune baby crazy I know anyone can do it I guess
Starting point is 00:33:31 not me yeah oh I want you know what I want to start and haven't it's a movie not a show
Starting point is 00:33:38 it's Tetris oh I know that looks so good I also want to see Air the Michael Jordan shoe store that's not out yet it's not but everyone's talking about it being just an absolutely amazing movie Oh, I know. That looks so good. I also want to see Air, the Michael Jordan shoe store. That's not out yet.
Starting point is 00:33:49 It's not, but everyone's talking about it being just an absolutely amazing movie. There's a lot of good stuff coming out, actually. Yeah. Extrapolations. Okay. Have you heard of this? No. Great cast.
Starting point is 00:33:59 Meryl Streep, Kit Harington, Sienna Miller. Edward Norton. Yep. A huge cast. Unanticipated stories of how the upcoming changes to our planet will affect love, faith, work, and family on a personal and human scale. Extrapolations on Apple TV. Diane Lane's in it. Kit Harington.
Starting point is 00:34:21 Elsa Gonzalez is in it. Forrest Whitaker. Tobey Maguire. I mean, this is, it's crazy. Marion Cotillard. They've got on this friggin' show. Wait, is Edward Norton? Yeah, he is. Meryl Streep?
Starting point is 00:34:31 Yep. I mean, the list is insane. Wow. I know. So I only watched one episode last night, but it is very heavily, obviously, about climate change. But it's a good mix of character development, storytelling, obviously. You've got that futuristic fantasy vibe.
Starting point is 00:34:51 You've got the world's ending, dystopian future vibe. It's just a mix of all the things I love topped off with that phenomenal cast. So I'm excited about the show. Episode one was good, but it usually takes me a couple episodes to really get into these shows where you really, they're developing all these characters so much in the first episode, so I don't know. I'm excited about it. Once I get a few more episodes in, I'll let you guys know more, but surely this is good.
Starting point is 00:35:17 I mean, this has to be good. This was an expensive show to make. Too big to fail. Too big to fail. What's this invasion show? Is this old? I don't know. Did you watch this?
Starting point is 00:35:27 Earth is visited by an alien species that threatens humanity's existence. Events unfold in real time through the eyes of five ordinary people across the globe. They struggle to make sense of the chaos unraveling around them. Invasion on Apple TV. I've not watched that, but I do want to watch that Right looks kind of good Yeah The other show that's on my radar to start
Starting point is 00:35:52 It's called The Night Agent it's on Netflix have you seen this No Been on my TikTok algorithm people talking about it But I watched the preview last night and it does look good I love that it's a series You know I love movies and all but I always want love that it's a series. You know, I love movies and all, but I always want more when it's just an hour and a half movie. So low level FBI agent, Peter Sutherland works in the basement of the white house, manning a phone that never rings
Starting point is 00:36:16 until the night it does propelling him into a conspiracy that leads all the way to the Oval Office. The Night Agent, only on Netflix. It starts with like this guy picks up the phone, obviously, the phone that never rings, picks up the phone and this girl, he answers and it's this girl who's like in a state of panic and she's saying that there's like two people in a house down the street from her and something's happened to them and whatnot. I'm guessing those two people are the fbi agents and he answers the phone she's supposed to know all these code words and shit you know for him to do anything about it she doesn't know any of it
Starting point is 00:36:52 but for some reason he takes the risk by like calling who he needs to call to like go to them and help them out or whatnot so the trailer is great it seems very good you know we love a white house drama we love an fbi you know thriller we love a White House drama. We love an FBI thriller. We love all these things, so I'm hopeful that this is good. Also, this guy's kind of hot, so, you know, we love some eye candy. Yeah. Alright.

You want to hear some voicemails? Sure. We got a couple? I think we do. By the way, this is episode 250.
Starting point is 00:38:06 It is? Yeah. Holy shit. We've been doing that for a long time. Way too long. And if you think about it, we were like a bi-monthly podcast at first. Is that insane? Because if you just think about it like, okay, so that means we've been doing this.
Starting point is 00:38:22 If we do 50 episodes a year that means that that's five years right but the first like year or two we were not doing an episode a week right so we've been doing this a lot longer than five years yeah yeah i can't believe the wife tears stuck with us that makes me so happy i know know.

Starting point is 00:40:18 It is called 65, and it has Adam Driver in it and dinosaurs. It's kind of all you need to know other than the fact that it's super suspenseful and just all around really fun. And I do your seat the whole movie pretty much. So yeah, other than that, I love you guys. You're my favorite thing. I've been listening since day one.
Starting point is 00:40:39 So love you, bye. An astronaut crash lands on a mysterious planet only to discover he's not alone. 65. It looks like Adam Driver crash lands on Earth 65 million years ago because there's dinosaurs. Ah. So, that's exciting.

But I like them because I get a bunch of recommendations. So I have a book recommendation for you, a movie, and a music recommendation. Okay. The book recommendation is The Nightingale by Kristen Hanna. So, so good. It is a historical fiction all about like during World War II. Amazing, amazing book. It's really long though, but so good.
Starting point is 00:41:31 Movie recommendation. It's old. Well, older. The Woman King. Oh my gosh. Viola Davis is just ridiculous in it. So good. One of the best movies I've seen in a really long time.
Starting point is 00:41:43 And then my music recommendation, I gotta give it to Miley's new album. I'm a huge Miley fan. I have been for, you know, a long time since the Hannah Montana days, but I feel like as she's grown up, I've kind of grown up alongside her, and this album is wonderful. My favorite song right now
Starting point is 00:42:00 is you. Alright, love you guys. Bye! Alright, The Nightingale is the story of two sisters caught up in occupied France during the Second World War. Both have remarkable stories to tell. The Nightingale. That sounds pretty great. I've seen that book.
