thing. Do it. 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
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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?
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.
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
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,
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
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.
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
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.

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.
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
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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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?
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
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
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.
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,
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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?
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
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
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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,
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
not me
yeah
oh I want
you know what
I want to start
and haven't
it's a movie
not a show
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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?
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
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
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
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.
We do gotta fuck you very much, and
this is coming at the perfect time
right before I go to the Masters. This is from
Brooke Stanley. Subject line,
fuck you very much, more golf
talk! Exclamation point.
Really? Five stars, thanks for that.
Love the show since day one. Listen to
every episode. But Brandy,
there are female golfers. I love
Wells' golf content.
Please continue the golf tent
as much as you want, Wells.
Oh, thank you.
Brooke Stanley.
Brooke, I have to side with Brandy on this one.
I think you and I are in the minority here, but I appreciate that.
Yeah, but if you want to tell us something that you hate about us or love about us,
go comment on the Apple reviews.
Give us five stars, and then we'll read it on the air.
You want to hear some voicemails?
Sure.
We got a couple?
I think we do.
By the way, this is episode 250.
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.
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. Tell your friends, guys. This is called HG Prequel.
Alright? I don't know what that means, but...
Hi, well, I'm Brandi. I love the
pod. I've been a listener since
day one. Thanks. Still here for some
reason. But,
well, I heard you
talking about how you're watching
The Hunger Games, and I've also been
watching it this week. I love that for us.
But, you may have
already talked about this. There was
a prequel to
The Hunger Games called The Ballad of
Songbirds and Snakes. Yep. And they're actually
making a movie of it
this year. It's gonna come out. It's about
when President Snow's a teenager.
And it's pretty good. So give that
a read. Bye.
Yes, I did know that.
I read that book, and I think I actually talked about it on the podcast.
I remember that.
Yeah, and so I'm very excited for that.
Cornelius Snow mentors and develops feelings for the female District 12 tribute during the 10th Hunger Games.
The Hunger Games, the Ballad of Sunbirds and Snakes.
Viola Davis is in it. Peter Dinklage is in it. Jason Schwartzman is in it. Wow. Berne Gorman. And then like a lot of kid actors,
obviously, that I did not know. Rachel Ziegler. Oh, and Hunter Schaefer. She's in Euphoria.
Oh, when's it coming out? Do we know? November 17th. Okay. Got a little bit.
We got a while.
We got a couple more callers.
Let's see what this one says.
Wow, that was an intense voicemail thing.
Hi, my name is Elise.
I'm from Florida.
Hey, Elise. I was just calling in to give a movie recommendation.
Okay.
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.
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.
Where do you watch this?
In theaters.
Ah.
You gotta go do that.
No.
Yeah.
And last one. I don't know if this is gonna be here Gettas. Ah. You got to go do that. No. Yeah.
And last one.
I don't know if this is going to be here by the time that the next podcast comes because everybody hates the voicemail so much.
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.
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.
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
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.
Yeah. On shelves a bunch. They're making
into a movie as well.
And then she also likes the
movie The Woman King with Viola Davis,
which I do need to watch that.
A historical epic inspired by true events
that took place in the kingdom of Dahomey,
one of the most powerful states of Africa
in the 18th and 19th centuries.
The Woman King.
I didn't know about that, that it was true.
That's pretty cool.
Me either.
Sounds really good.
That's all I got. You got some musics? Does Jason Isbell have a new song out? I don't know about that, that it was true. That's pretty cool. Me either. Sounds really good. That's all I got. You got some musics?
Does Jason Isbell have a new song out?
I don't know, but Jason Isbell has
a documentary coming out.
Oh. It's going to be on HBO. I cannot wait for it.
That sounds amazing. Yeah.
He's going to drop a record in June.
Yeah. He put out,
is it two new songs?
Middle of the Morning is on my release radar
if we want to give that a play. Okay.
Yes, I've tried
to be grateful for my devils
and call them by their names.
But I'm tired
by the middle of the morning
I need someone to blame
I know you're scared of me
I can see it in your face
I can feel it in the way you move around this place
I know you're scared of me
I can see it in your smile
Like an unintended child
You can't quite trust
But I'm trying
Stepping on your shadow
Feeling in the way
That sounds good.
Yeah, I cannot wait for his new documentary.
Where is that coming out on?
Do you know?
I think it's on HBO Max.
It's called Jason Isbell Running With Her Eyes Closed.
Amazing.
So, like I said, we went to go see Raylan Baxter at Pioneertown.
And he's got a new record out, If I Were a Butterfly is the name of the record.
That song is Sarah's, I think, favorite one.
That's the first song on the record.
But mine, I think, is the song Billy Goat, which is number two on the record.
So we can go out on that.
What do you got coming up?
Coming out to LA sometime this month.
Haven't really decided when yet, but I'll be there soon-ish.
Cool.
That's kind of all I got, really.
Really?
Yeah.
No horse shows-zings?
No, Stargirl's still rehabbing from her injury, so I think
it'll be fall before she's back in the
competition game. Okay.
Oh, I did, you know, I played in New York last
week. Great
show. Super cool club. Played at a
spot called Somewhere Nowhere in Chelsea.
I think they're going to bring me back
a few more times this year.
So hopefully I'll have the deets on that for you guys.
If you're in New York City or the surrounding area,
going to be a lot of chances to come out
and have a dance party with me this year.
And highly recommend.
The club was great.
Super fun, super lit.
Great times all around.
So more info to come.
Yeah.
All right.
That's exciting.
Yeah.
I'm going to Augusta this weekend.
So if you are at the Masters and you see Sarah and I stumbling around Augusta National,
come say hi, I guess.
And what's going to be great about that is that there's no phones allowed in Augusta.
So no one's going to be like, selfie, selfie, selfie.
They're just going to be like, hey, what's up?
What do you mean there's no phones allowed?
Can't bring a phone in there. Into what? The golf tournament. selfie, selfie, selfie. They're just going to be like, hey, what's up? What do you mean there's no phones allowed? Can't bring a phone in there.
Into what? Like
the golf tournament. Oh, the golf tournament.
Yeah. Interesting.
So it'll be nice. We'll get to just talk to people.
Because usually people just want a selfie and they leave.
You know, you're like, I didn't get to
know you.
