Your Favorite Thing with Wells & Brandi - “Take a Moment and Say Your Byes”

Episode Date: August 25, 2021

If you were wondering what the opposite of “litty kitty” is, it’s your hosts on today’s episode of YFT. Brand-eye is Brand-dying and Wells cannot handle a floating bar on island time. Basically, they’re both feeling like Kelsey did at this week's Bachelor in Paradise rose ceremony. By the way, how impressed were you by Wells’ speech about taking a moment and saying your byeeees!? The two hosts rally from their illnesses to give you the BIP recap you’ve been waiting for. Wells reveals some moments we didn’t get to see on TV, including his first ever tip at the bar which was a very special chakra necklace. Also, why didn’t Maurissa and Riley lie to Lance Bass instead of eating tongues? Brandi and Wells discuss what they would’ve told Lance Bass their “numbers” were, and speaking of numbers, both hosts spill the tea on their first times. They then get into their picks for next season’s Bachelor, divulge some fave things of the week including an alien moment, and explain their personal plane bathroom preferences. Next week we promise to bring more energy after what may be the last vacation these two hosts ever take.   Don’t forget to rate, review, and follow Your Favorite Podcast!

Let me see if I can get her on the old phone but we're gonna have a good episode let me see if i can uh get her on the old phone hey hold on a second i gotta take these fucking pills what is what is wrong with you are you dying is the brand die it's not good yo the brand dying i you know i I've heard Mexico can do crazy things to people. Yeah.

But I wasn't prepared for this. Did you do something to Montezuma? Is he getting his revenge upon your body? Is that where you shit a lot? Because that's not happening to me. Oh, what are you getting? My head hurts so bad. Okay, so here's the real deal.

All right. I stayed up all night last night. Well, that's why. That's the problem. Yeah, that's the problem. So I'm in Mexico. Yeah. yeah at a really really nice place like i got here last night and it's beautiful brand new i just like it's stunning to look at like absolutely stunning like you feel like you're in a dream then i went to go to bed and it's so fucking hot and they have these like ac ceiling units let me tell you what they don't work

oh no and it's so hot it's like 90 degrees out at night and it was just so hot last night i just can't sleep when i'm hot i can't do it i i just tossed and turned all night long and also the bed i'm sleeping on literally feels like this concrete floor i'm sitting on right now like i've never slept on such a hard mattress in my whole life. And I think the combination of these two things just really did a number on me last night because I did not sleep at all. And then I had to get up at 5.30 for a photo shoot. So I've been up since 5.30.

I mean, that's what paradise is, Sister Anne. How is everyone not ill as fuck? They are. I'll give you some background on Paradise. A lot of Joe moping around was really him just shitting his brains out. He didn't feel good for like four days. I'm really not doing that. I'm really not doing that, though.

I'm not just saying that because it's gross. I wish I was shitting more, to tell you the truth. So are you still in Mexico? Yeah, I'm here. I'm supposed to be here until Friday, but I'm feeling like I've got to maybe turn around tomorrow and go home. Yeah, you're bailing. You're fucking pulling the ripcord.

I'm not a wuss. Like, I usually push through, and if I'm not feeling good, I just, you know, push through and do it anyway. Do what I'm supposed to do. Don't complain. Yeah. I feel like dog shit. Dude, I'm right there with you. So we're in the same boat, man, because I'm also on vacation.

I'm just in the islands and yesterday the island yeah I feel like that's vague enough the one and only island yeah there's a bunch of islands out here I'll tell you that much I think once we leave then I'll say where we're at but

yeah for sure but anyways we went to this fucking bar so we went to this fucking bar. So we went to the beach yesterday and there's a floating bar. And so we took a little dinghy over to the floating bar. A couple things about me. I'm not a super lightweight. I may when I get drunk, I go to bed guy, but I'm not a lightweight.

I very rarely am like that guy that like is just uncontrollable you know or like you're someone's having to take care of them i've never really been that person but yesterday we went to this beach and i went we went over this floating bar and i was totally normal taking selfies with people making videos whatever all this stuff and the bartender made me two vodka sodas the cranberry and i shit you not i just blacked the fuck out yeah i like i came straight back to the room passed the fuck out woke up at 10 30 to sarah handing me a plate of spaghetti which was delicious by the way spaghetti on the beach yeah i'm not i'm taj juan from taj yeah i overheated and fucking got scared of crabs, got too much drinks in me. Anyway, so I've been struggling.

I'm on a struggle bus today, my friend. What are you drinking there? A Michelob Ultra Organic Seltzer Spicy Pineapple. I got to say, Brandi, and this is, I don't know what this is about, but like alcohol just doesn't taste good to me anymore. Really? No alcohol, not beer, not wine? Beer makes me bloated.

Wine gives me terrible hangovers. Vodka sodas mess up my tom-tom real bad, and I black out on floating bar barges. All I can drink now is claws, like Mick mick ultras i'm like a fucking 20 year old girl wow but because they don't get me too drunk they don't give me hangovers the cows are pretty low right but where we are where we're at in the islands first of all they don't sell claws here we went to the grocery store they have them individually out not like in like cases so i just went grabbed all of the claws so we have like a bunch of trulies a bunch of mcglobe ultras organic seltzers uh a bunch of like off-brand like island shit also the other thing about the

islands this whole island time thing not for me all right don't it. What do you mean? Everyone's so fucking slow. Everything takes a fucking year and a half. Excuse me. I'm on vacation. And I know I should be slowing it down, but I've only got a finite amount of time here. I want to fucking maximize efficiency and positivity. And you say 12 o'clock, we're getting picked up.

And if the fucking car ain't here at 1230 Bro, you just ripped away 30 minutes of my day of my enjoyment and I stressed out now Do your fucking island time guy can't tell your how's your blood pressure would fucking? skyrocketing right now Yeah, I can imagine the other thing is that we're here with a couple other couple other couples And I'm the one in charge and i hate this because i'm the one that's having like to deal with the people who are planning like our events and our little little jaunts and shit and everyone's coming to me and they're like so where are we going today i'm like we're going to restaurant like what's it like i'll

fucking i've never been here this first time for me too i don't know i'm just hoping that we're not on island time and the fucking taxi gets us at a reasonable hour. That's all I'm hoping for. Also, when you go on vacation, you don't know how much you're supposed to tip. You know? I know. Yeah.

You are just hoping that you're not fucking disappointing people constantly. Yeah. That's fair. Here's the thing. Here's the thing that fucking sucks. They realize, you know, all these people come up and ask Sarah for pictures and shit, so then all of a sudden your driver or whatever, they're like, oh, these people are fucking important.

And then you're like, fuck, they assume that we're going to pay them more. And you don't want to disappoint them. You don't want to become a TikTok where you're like, that one time that I waited on fucking Wells and Sarah, they were assholes and they only took me 20%, you know? And then you're just fucking sitting. Dude, fucking vacation is stressful, bro. Wow. So you should never fucking vacation is stressful, bro. Wow. So you should never

go on vacation again, basically. You either. The lesson here. I'm done with vacations. When are you going home? On Friday. Oh, wow.

You're there for a hot minute. Hot minute, sis. What are you doing there for so long? This is all part of Sarah and I's, well, let's be fair. It's all part of Sarah's thing of like, let's be fair it's all part of sarah's

thing of like i want to redo all of it i want to like pretend like we're going to our engaged and then i want to replan engagement parties i want to replan bachelorette parties i got it wedding so this is kind of stage one if i'm being honest with you wow we also like worked a bunch this year and or at least this summer and so like it was just like our time to chill out yeah that's fair yeah all right quick psa for those of you out there who rent if you haven't heard of built you're about to thank me earning points on rent is now a reality when you pay your rent through built you don't even have to check with your landlord to start earning points that you can use towards flights, hotel stays, fitness classes, and even your next rent payment.

Were you able to watch both episodes? I actually skipped episode two and just went straight to episode three. Oh, you did? You missed my shining moment of being fucking the rose ceremony

host? I got a recap from a friend that watched episode two because I only had time to watch one since I tried to take a little nap just now. Here was the recap. So you tell me what I missed. All right, let's start the show first. Victory?

Oh, okay. Yeah, you go for it before you die on this episode. Bros and nos. Oh my God. Should we even do this episode or should we just cancel this week? I don't fucking know. Bros knows you're listening to a very ill, your favorite podcast.

I don't even know what I'm saying. I feel like very old Brandy and a pretty shitty Wells. Your favorite thing podcast. Ding, ding, ding. Wells and Brandy. Wow. Okay. So your friend watched,

your friend did your homework assignment for you and sent you notes. Okay. Here's the notes. Here's what I said, what I miss in episode two. Yeah. Victoria P. has a boyfriend in Nashville.

Kelsey almost faints in the rose ceremony and gets gassed. Victoria L. is a clown. Demi thinks she's the hottest thing around when she's a complete zero. These guys are clueless. This Brendan guy literally has no brain cells.

And this is unbelievable to watch. Was this a friend who's never watched Bachelor before? No, but it was a guy. That's pretty funny. So I was like, alright. i feel like i watched it i mean yeah but that's that's every episode of paradise you know funny all right well what did he leave out what i miss here's the thing like in real life the way that it went down was kind of different from the show but like she is trying to kind of get a rose from people and then once she kind of realizes that she doesn't have a rose really solidified then i feel like she has this like epiphany this aha moment of like oh my god my boyfriend who's at home is who i really should be with. Oh, no.

Do you think this boyfriend is real or made up? No, I think he's real. He's a fucking country singer, I guess. What? That's every Bachelorette girl's story. I moved to Nashville and got myself a country singer. Yeah, I know. And I'm just sitting there being like,

is it Jed? Is it Jed that's back there? Oh. I should have asked Connor. You know what? I just saw Jed at that Fourth of July party I went to. Really? And he did have a girl with him, and there were some Bachelor girls there.

There you go. So maybe. Maybe that's who it was. So I think she wanted him to come to paradise. Totally not in the spirit of the show of like you have a boyfriend back at home well now they broke up did they i don't know i don't have a rose you know what i have a boyfriend back home oh my god i love it so much let's go back home yeah i like victoria paul just fine it didn't seem like she was ever like um really pot committed to anybody or really caring. So she doesn't know James' name a lot.

And that was a very real thing. She keeps on messing up his name. There were many times, to be fair, everyone does this. Because a lot of people don't know each other. People are getting served drinks. And you're just like, imagine going to a party and you meet 30 new people. And you're like, fuck, what's that person's name? So it does happen a lot.

But she forgot his name a lot. And was she trying to get a rose from him, I'm assuming? Yes, from James. Yeah. And here's the thing. Like, I know everyone's name because obviously, like, I know who's probably going to be coming. I know, you know, I need to make sure I know everyone's backstory. You know, obviously, I need to have some sort of relationship with these people.

So I know everyone's names. And there were times when people come up to me, but her being like what's his name again kevin she thought his name was kevin so much and his name was james box guy james i thought that was fucking hilarious the the whole kelsey fainting i will say this because i do like her but when it happened, I was like, get this girl some fucking water. It's 530 in the morning. I got to go to bed. You boys tired. 530.

That was the first rose ceremony. It was so late. So late. No freaking way, Jose. I know. And then she had like a panic attack or whatever. But she was sweating so much. It was amazing.

So her laxative makeup didn't help her out there? No, not at all. She forgot to put her fucking Mylanta or whatever all over her face that day. Tough break. Yeah. The episode, I think, was pretty good. I wasn't really in it except for when I hosted the rose ceremony, and everyone seems to be

pretty pleased with what I did. Except I said, I guess I said, and I don't really remember saying this, but I believe people because a lot of people said it. I guess I said,

the line is, if you didn't receive a rose, please take a moment and say your goodbyes. And say your goodbyes. Yeah. And I think what I said was, if you didn't receive a rose,

please take a moment and say your buys so i guess i forgot the good part because not all buys are good you know some are bad guys that's fair let's be fair one thing that they did cut out that kind of bummed me out this is my favorite thing so uh the goddess victoria she came up to me and she made me a chakra necklace it was like all these all these different stones stones that signify my different chakras. And then it had a little rose gold pendant kind of on the bottom of it. And she came up and she was like, well, you work so hard for us.

This is a bad goddess impersonation. But I just thought I would give you this, and I think this would be great for you. You need this. And I was like, and she gave it to me, and I was like, oh, no one in the five years of me doing this show has ever given me a quote-unquote tip.

Like, this is truly. Oh, it's a tip? I think so, you know. All right. Don't have any money. Okay. Truly one of the nicest things. I was like, oh my God, Victoria, thank you so much.

That's wonderful. You're so nice. So the whole night she was trying to figure out how to talk to Brendan. Everyone wanted to fucking talk to Brendan. And I was like, this guy doesn't like any of you guys, unfortunately, but whatever. And she's like, I'm going to make one for Brendan. And, like, you know, like, and then going for a kiss. And I was like good idea good idea

Victoria like get it get your get your man whatever and then she comes back and she goes oh my god well I don't have time to go make another one so can I have that one back so I can no oh no that's genius and I was like you just gave it to me but that's funny of course i gave it to her and i was like yes go go forth young child that didn't work and then she ended up giving it back to me the second episode with uh lance bass coming in yeah the stupid date where they're eating tongues oh yeah was not the thing to watch when you don't feel good or like you were on that date being like i kind of thought i was signing up for, like, helicopter rides and, like, yacht situations

and, like, hot tubs. Here's the other thing. I didn't sign up for this. They're asking you questions like, how many people have you slept with? Yeah. Just make up a fucking number. Yeah.

Don't eat a tongue. Yeah. Just say eight and be done with it. Like, just make up a number. Yeah, I guarantee you, Lance Batts doesn't fucking know how many people you fucked. I promise you. He doesn't have any sleuths

on the inside figuring out how many people you fucked. There's no way. So make up a number that doesn't make you sound like a prude, but also doesn't make you sound like a whore. What's the number you think? I don't know. Eight sounded alright to me. Eight sounds pretty good. Yeah, okay. For a girl like eight doesn't sound too bad

yeah at my at my age though i mean maybe those girls that are like 24 need to need to lower their number a little bit yeah maybe so maybe like five yeah you know i once dated a girl uh said she was a virgin and she's got an only fancy account now like i don't think yeah i don't think that was true why would you tell me that because guys love a virgin do obviously no you just said you just said it's the right number you've done enough well i mean as a 34 year old i think i think if you're a virgin it's a right number. You've done enough. Well, I mean, as a 34-year-old, I think if you're a virgin, it's a little weird. How old were you when you dated this said virgin? Oh, I would say in my early 30s.

Yeah, I don't know. I feel like guys are always like, oh, it's so hot. I'm the first one that's going to take you to pound town, baby. Nope. Everyone remembers their first. I don't want to be remembered. That's true. I don't want to be forgotten.

No, thank you. That's a true point. Especially if you're not. No, thank you. That's a true point. Especially if you're not going to marry that person. That's a scar somewhere for life, you know? No, thank you. Yeah. Was your first time that bad? Geez.

No. But if I'm being fair, my first time was in high school when it was supposed to. It was bad because you were in high school and you were stupid. Yeah. You didn't know anything. Mine wasn't that bad. It wasn't? No, it was supposed to. It was bad because you were in high school and you were stupid. Yeah. You know, you didn't know anything. Mine wasn't that bad. It wasn't? No, it was fine.

It wasn't like anything to write a book about, but it was fine. Yeah. It didn't scar me for life or anything. Well, that's good. I'll see. I'm all right, I think. I know, but that gets a lot of pressure

to put on somebody. Also, did they go to Poundtown that night? Maybe. If anyone went to Pound Town, it's them. Dude, that was, he was like, let's get out of here. I know a place. I know. I know.

I'm telling you, if anyone's doing it, it's those two. It's like, Riley, you just got here. You've never been here before, bro. Like, you literally just got. Imagine coming to Paradise day one. You walk down the steps at noon, and 12 hours later, you're slapping cheeks. I mean, I think with those arms, you can get away with whatever he wants is what it sounded like. He does.

Those things are huge. It's like the equivalent of the he's so tall thing with girls. It's like guys that are so tall can just get away with anything and not be very cute because they're like, but he's so tall. And I feel like it's with this. It's like, but his arms are so tall can just get away with anything and not be very cute because then they're like, but he's so tall. Okay, but hold on. And I feel like it's with this. It's like, but his arms are so big. Yeah, they are big. And he's a lawyer.

I think the lawyer thing trumps the arm thing. But speaking of the tall thing, fucking Thomas is so tall. What are your thoughts? Thomas needs to get the fuck out of here telling all these girls how tall he is. Like, we get it, okay? And what does he think? He thinks this is not being recorded. There's a camera right there.

He doesn't think they're going to air this over and over and make him look like a complete dumbass? I mean, he told me, too. Because I was like, dude, you're a big guy. Same thing. Came in the bar. Oh, I got to duck down because of my head. Okay, guy. I get it.

You get it? What are you compensating for? If he had said that to me, I'd be like, oh, sick. So you weren't good enough to play professional sport? No, I think he was. Sick, bro. I think he did. I think he played football or baseball or something in college.

Well, that doesn't count. I love Trey. Love Trey. Like, his response to everything was so great. The way he dealt with Tajwanuan who was kind of spiraling and it wasn't trey's fault she was spiraling because riley came in which wasn't fair the way he handled that was great the way he handled thomas coming in was great and then the way he handled when he found out what thomas said about him was just so good.

Yeah. This is the last time I'm intentionally going to speak to you. Yeah. I want to use that in my daily life so badly. This is the last time. Like in an email thread with like a boss. This is the last time I'm intentionally going to correspond with you. Yeah. That's funny.

Oh, fuck, dude. I love that guy. He's so funny and he sweats so much. He would come to my bar every day and be like, can I get a Trey special? A Trey special was an ice water and a bunch of napkins to dab his head. Oh, I feel you, Trey trey i know he's the best i'm really bummed because the the scene where they've got sad bastard connor singing his sappy sad songs on the beach he's so annoying oh my god stop hating on my boy. But anyways. He's just so easy to hate on.

I don't know what to tell you. Yeah. But anyways. He's just so sad. For a family of musicians, you should appreciate a musician. That's all I'm saying. I don't. We're all tough as nails, okay?

They showed the scene of him playing, and I'm sitting there crying. You best believe your boy had some eye drops, and I had some really good tears coming down. And you couldn't really see it, but I had like real good tears. Oh yeah. I was just like, he was sitting there playing and I was like, camera guy, come over here. And I was just like.

You're insane. So beautiful. And then all of a sudden when he finished, he came over and he was like why are the camera guys over here and i was like i was watching you play and he was like what are you doing and i said i was crying he's like why and i was like it was a sad song and he goes you couldn't hear me and i go i know it was sad look at you we know it was sad look at you. We know it was sad. Look at you, this deep V. Your girl's on a date. She's probably rounding third right now.

Can someone go take all of his deep Vs, by the way? Listen, you know what? He's making a statement. This is not 2006. He needs to toss. He's making a statement, man. You can't hate on someone fucking going for it, fashion-wise. Is that what you call it?

Yeah. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's not cool. Did somebody else go on a date? Oh, Serena and what's-his-face? Trevor? Travis? What's his name? Thomas.

Yeah. Yeah. It's funny because I really thought he was fooling her the whole time. I was like, oh, she's going to buy into this. And poor Joe. And then at the end, I guess she just really wanted to make out with him, which that's fair, I guess. He's hot, I guess.

I mean, I don't know. Do you think that Joe's getting a bachelor at it? There's no way in hell Joe is going to be the bachelor. Why not? Do you think? He was on Dancing with the Stars. Would he do it? I don't know.

I assume he did Paradise. Why wouldn't he do Bachelor? I mean, I'm here for it. I love Joe. I'm here for that. And I would like to think they would cast a bunch of women that aren't 20. Yeah. I mean, I'm sure they'll have a couple because of what they do,

but it could be a really great season, honestly. He's definitely more deserving than these other dudes. Yeah. Well, I saw like reality Steve say was going to be Greg. Yeah, I saw that too. Dirt Greg. But then I went to Cleveland last weekend. Yeah.

You know, Michael is from Akron. Yeah. And the fucking club owner was like, yeah, the guy that's going to be the next Bachelor was here last night. And I was like, who? And he was like, oh, this guy, he's got a kid. And I was like, Michael? And he was like, yeah. They were saying he's going to be the next Bachelor.

I was like, I don't think so. Well, if the club owner is the guy that knows the hot fucking goss, then we're in trouble. We're in big trouble. All right? And then he's not as like sweet and as wholesome as we thought he was if he's going to the club that's what i was thinking

honestly you know yeah it's not it's a it's a pretty wild club yeah i don't know man everyone's been saying greg maybe it's greg maybe it's maybe it's michael maybe it's andrew i would love to see andrew as a bachelor he's besides joe he's the only other one I can really think of that I would say is very deserving. I kind of agree with that, but I don't know. Based on his edit. I mean, he was awesome. Yeah, we'll see what happens.

But we love Joe. I mean, it does have a Nick Viall ring to it of the guy that's tried so many times and been on so many times, and it's his one last shot to find love. They do love that story. Yeah. of the guy that's tried so many times and been on so many times. It's his one last shot to find love. They do love that story. Yeah.

I would say that Joe's less polarizing than Nick is, though. Yeah, that's true. As close as I am with Nick, I don't think anyone doesn't like Joe. That's true. Honestly. Oh, there was a girl here on this trip, actually. At dinner, we were talking about Paradise.

I guess that was last night when we got in. And this one was like i love grocery store joe she's hot yeah and i was like i can introduce you if you want she was like oh i have a boyfriend yeah yeah she goes yeah we both we both like grocery store joe actually but we watch it together i was like interesting okay yeah but everybody does love him. Well, we'll see what happens. Here's the funny thing, and, like, not to do, like, the most dramatic season ever thing, but we're three episodes in, and we haven't gotten anywhere near the good shit. Oh, I'm sure. Like, nowhere near the good shit. Yeah. I think there's some good shit next episode, and then I think there's some, like, right,

I can't even, it's all running together, but then there's, like, really good shit, like and then i think there's some like right i came from it's all running together but there's like really good shit like in a couple weeks dude i'm just so excited and i saw the ratings came out it topped so that's good so the show's at least performing well which i think abc needs so yeah is that enough uh bachelor stuff I think so. I mean, you got some favorite things, bro, or what? Bro. Tell me you've started Nine Perfect Strangers. No, and everyone... Ugh! And Sarah and I's friend Sam Weaving's in it,

and I know everyone's talking about how great it is. Which one is he? Oh, she's a girl. Oh, she? She looks exactly like Margot Robbie. I don't know if she's blonde or brunette in this, but I know that she's in the movie. She's beautiful and cool. Okay. She's Australian, but I don't know if she's blonde or brunette in this, but I know that she's in the movie. She's beautiful and cool.

She's Australian, but I don't know if she plays an Australian in this. I don't know. I can't. I don't know. I've only seen two episodes. There's three out. It's super good. It's funny.

My mom watched it, and she was like, I love this show, but I've watched three episodes, and I don't know what the hell it's about. But it's good. I mean, it's David E. Kelly, so it's the same creators, hell it's about. Yeah. But it's good. I mean, it's it's David E. Kelly. So it's the same creators, Big Little Lies. Yeah. Same reason, you know, you created it, produced it, whatever the whole deal.

Obviously, Nicole Kidman's in it. I love the like the like thrill. It's got like a thriller edge to it. The energy of it. Right. Like it's I don't know. There's something about it where you're like something's not quite right here. Like I was kind of wondering, is Nicole Kidman human? I don't know.

There's something about her to me that's very ethereal. This is Sam. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think she's blonde. She's hot. I think she's brunette. It's like reddish, I think. Reddish brunette. Yeah, she's super pretty. She's really good in it. really she plays the like really over the top like uh like a rich influencer gal in LA you know yeah um and she's good and Melissa McCarthy's in it and it's funny I'm really usually not like a big Melissa McCarthy guy because she's

so over the top with her comedy and she's not in this she plays a very normal character but is still very funny like but it's just way more subtle than she normally does and i think she's hilarious in this yeah okay okay ding we don't have our bells but i know you gotta watch it though because i'm curious to see like what you think's going on because it is a bit all over the place and they like share nicole kinman's characters like backstory in episode two yeah and it's very vague and I just don't really understand what's going on so but it's cool it's good it's like that show and uh White Lotus is like there are two shows like everyone's talking about I know I haven't

started that one I know I got that's I got that next well I also watched the saddest fucking movie I've ever seen in my entire life on the airplane on the way here. What was it? It's called The Last Letter to My Lover. Oh, God. Have you seen this? No, but. Maybe it's the reason I didn't sleep last night.

I can't stop thinking about it. Jesus. It's Shailene Woodley and Felicity Jones are in it. I feel like Shailene Woodley's always in like a Nicholas Sparks, someone's got cancer movie, and I got to fucking deal with this shit. It's sad as fuck. Here it is. It's adapted from a book.

Read this not for us. A pair of unwoven stories set in the past and present follow an ambitious journalist determined to solve the mystery of a forbidden love affair at the center of a trove of secret love letters from 1965. The last letter from your lover. From your lover. So here's what's cool about it. It's like a mix between a new British, like a new British rom-com and like this period piece, you know? And it's funny because Shay plays the character that's in the 1960s.

Oh, really? It's so good. I love the guy that plays her lover. And so you see flashbacks of like Shay's love triangle, right? Like she's married and her husband's rich as hell and her life looks amazing from the outside. But she's not in love and she's not happy and they don't have kids.

And she meets this guy who basically calls her out on it and he's divorced or whatever, says he's never really been in love, blah, blah, blah. They have this phenomenal love affair. And Felicity Jones's character, and then you like pan over and you're in the present and she's reading all these letters back and forth between them

that she finds in an archive because she's a writer. So it's very cool and at the very end, the two stories kind of come together and I don't want to ruin it for you guys but it is so sad, the end. Like just so sad.

Yeah. Look, I'm sad still. You're sad? It's been 48 hours. I'm so'm so sad all right so is it worth watching yeah it's worth it if you want to get in your feels this one's for you yeah yeah where are my samurai anime fans at they're nowhere they don't exist so i started watching on the plane. I'm going to butcher all of this, and I'm sorry, but I'm stupid. Rony Kenshin. Final chapter, part two, the beginning.

Also, the name is just so confusing. Is it the final chapter? Is it part two? Or is it the beginning? I don't fucking know. Anyways. Kenshin goes up against a mysterious weapons dealer named Inishi. He controls the underworld of China.

The secret of Kenshin is also revealed. Very vague. It's kind of like Kill Bill, but I think more authentic because it actually is in Japanese and Chinese, and it's dubbed over. So it's a little cheesy, like the fight scenes are pretty fucking badass like this main character is like he's got this like scar on his face

and like he's like mysterious but like kind of like beloved it's kind of like the Joe actually of this fucking samurai world and then all of a sudden this arms dealer who's just like a fucking monster just like goes and starts like destroying his little village in Japan.

You're not really sure why, and then you realize, oh, the two got history, and the arms dealer's coming for fucking not his body, but his soul. Anyways, the fight scenes are badass. It's just a lot like sword play and all that kind of stuff. And so if you're into samurai fucking anime weird shit, it's not a cartoon. It's like the actual actors,

but it's like very kind of anime-esque to me. You know, don't worry about how confusing the name is because we're not sure if it's the final chapter, if it's part two, if it's the beginning. But anyways, I'm not even trying to say the name because I can't say it. Anyways, it's on Netflix and I really liked it. And it's got seven out of ten on IMDb,

so pretty good. So the one person that watched it gave it a 7, all right. 7.5, actually. 7.5. Lovely. I don't know. I didn't hate it. I mean, you know, sometimes you've got to stretch your wings a little bit.

You've got to try some new shit. You know? Yeah. No. I refuse. Yeah, okay. For all my alien conspiracy theorists out there, Top Secret UFO Projects, Declassified.

It's also on Netflix. I'm not going to bore you with all the weird shit that proved that aliens exist. But if you're into that shit, go check that out. Ding, ding. Loved it. We love an alien story. We love an alien moment.

We really do. You you know uh-huh i was on the airplane flying over here and i went to go to use the bathroom first of all it's disgusting to go into an airplane bathroom barefoot correct who does that everyone i see lucy loppy what but like no socks barefoot yeah just. That's what barefoot is. Oh my God, I've never seen that. Oh, I see it all the time. I've seen socks and it makes me cringe. Oh, it does.

So I do socks because I take my shoes off. I take my shoes off. Because I can fucking plump up like a goddamn sausage. Why don't you wear compression socks? What? What? I just wear normal socks. Why don't you wear compression socks and

that doesn't happen no you still are getting puffed up your the sock is just compressing it down yeah but it makes you feel better i don't know about that but anyways so i went to the bathroom with my socks just my socks on which i was like am i a fucking monster doing this or like is this normal i don't really know so i sat down to take a load off i noticed took a shit on the airplane i shit on every single airplane what why not it's an opportunity to take a shit and a place that is not my bathroom so do you take poopery with you or do you just make it miserable for the person that has to go in next welcome to the jungle bitches all right this is what happens i mean one i poop on the airplane

because it's in the morning generally my flights are in the morning and you know you give me some coffee by the way they say never drink airplane coffee because like they i know never clean the fucking coffee mug there or coffee i've seen a bunch of tiktoks about that but anyways you know you fucking get your starbucks before you get in the plane or whatever or at the lounge and it goes right through you and you fucking

just all, you got a shit up there and it's kind of fun to hit that fucking flush and just a shotgun shell out of the

airplane. It's like, Jesus, what happened? So I was sitting there and I was pondering life and all the

splendors of it and I noticed there was an ashtray right in front of me. It know kind of pulled down or whatnot and of course they have all the things in the bathroom like you know like tampering with a smoke detector comes with a two thousand dollar fine and up to 10 years in life in prison with all the fucking shit I'm sitting there being like this is confusing there's a fucking ashtray right here and then I'm saying I can't smoke in here which I wasn't going to but i was just like thinking about it so i was like you

know maybe this airplane is so old that back in the day they had the ashtrays and now obviously you can't use it but if that's the case like that's fucking old because i remember flying on airplanes this is how old i Because I remember flying on airplanes. This is how old I am. I remember one of my first flights I ever took, we went to Tahiti. And I remember my brother was in the back smoking cloves at Jason Hall. No way. Yeah.

So I remember back, that was over 30, probably 34 years ago. Mm-hmm. So I was like, no way this fucking plane's 34 years old. Like we should not be on this airplane. This is dangerous. This plane's as old as I am and I can't do anything right. What makes this airplane think it can't? So I went outside and I was talking to the stewardess after I took my shit and washed my hands. And I said, Hey, listen, let me ask you something. How old is this plane? And she's, Oh, you know, it's from 2008. Oh no, 2014. I said, hey, listen, let me ask you something. How old is this plane? And she said, oh, you know, it's from 2008. Oh, no, 2014.

I said, 2014? I was like, I remember when you could smoke on airplanes, but you can't smoke on airplanes since when? And she was like, oh, I think like early 90s when they cut it off. And I was like, okay, why the fuck you got ashtrays in here then? If this plane was built in 2014, you couldn't smoke on airplanes in 1990, why is there an ashtray here? And this is what blew my mind.

They have to have ashtrays on the airplane because if someone does break the rule and smoke, they need a place to put the cigarette out in case of a fire hazard and she was like this will blow your mind but if that ashtray is not on the plane when we're about to take off we can't fucking leave what blown away dude so anyways that's wild if you ever wonder why there's ashes in the airplane, it's because they realize that humans are so fucking unable to do the right thing that they have to have a contingency plan for them doing the wrong thing. Makes sense. It's fucking America right there.

It's pretty mind-blowing. Also, I kind of don't believe her about that plane. I think they just redo the interiors and that the planes are just ancient. Maybe so. This one was kind of new. It had pods and shit. that plane i think they just redo the interiors and that the planes are just ancient maybe so this one was kind of new it was like had pods and shit but that just means they ripped out they got it redid the interior yeah i don't care either way whatever that's my conspiracy theory i kind of believe you on that i mean planes still airlines are so fucking cheap it's like what other reason would they have for not giving us like four more inches of room in each seat you know no thank you come on no thank you so we're down here on the beach

and obviously like when you're down the beach you talk about jimmy buffett a lot because you know that's what you do and so i was talking about jimmy buffett and like we were i was like man like jimmy where's jimmy buffett's boat or something i said something like that and and i was like you know this that motherfucker used to like do you know that like jimmy buffett used to run drugs that was like his thing i mean yes he's a singer but he used to run drugs he's a pilot he has a pilot's license and obviously he has a boat so he would run drugs and all this stuff and did you know that in 2009 he got nailed in france for having like an ounce of molly or something on him and apparently the quote is the french police don't know the difference between mdma and vitamins that was his quote it wasn't i didn't

do it it said he and i was sitting there and i was like, dude, fucking Jimmy Buffett is so fucking gangster. And Jimmy Buffett in 1975 when he was running drugs was gangster. But also Jimmy Buffett in 2009 running drugs is also gangster. And then I was like, you know what the fucking truth of the matter is? Jimmy Buffett is more fucking gangster than Snoop Dogg is. Snoop Dogg's on a show of goddamn Martha Stewart, who actually also is very fucking gangster. Of all these three people, Snoop Dogg is the least gangster of all of them. Martha Stewart fucking got nailed for insider trading

and did her time without snitching like a fucking G. Jimmy Buffett's over here getting nailed for fucking Molly in France. Snoop Dogg's doing updates for the Olympics with Kevin Hart. Hated the horse one, the equestrian one. I'm like, you guys are everything I hate about the public. Oh, I'm sorry. You equestrians are so misunderstood. We really truly are.

Oh, yeah. Except for that German hoe that was abusing the horse in the pentathlon. She really truly are. Oh, yeah. Except for that German hoe that was abusing the horse in the pentathlon. She sucks. Yeah. So, you got anything else, bro? I don't think so.

Yeah. I did receive an email this week from our good friend Andrea Bartz who wrote the book The Lost Knight that I talked about a while back and loved. And she is

sending me her new book called We Were Never Here. And it sounds great. I'm very excited to receive it. I should have it by the time I get home I think. She says it's about two globetrotting besties who kill a backpacker in self-defense. It's the Reese's Book Club pick for

August. And it's been hanging out on the New York Times bestseller list since it came out earlier this month. So, very excited about that. Okay, so it's going to be HBO's series. Got it. Sounds... Absolutely. Everything Reese does goes into production.

That's awesome. I want to read it too. I know, right? Sounds good. All right, well,, right? Sounds good. All right. Well, you don't feel good. I got to get back to drinking pina coladas on the beach. Wait, by the way, dude, fucking island drinks are so sugary, bro.

Oh, yeah. Hey, let's put more sugar in this thing and make me have even more of a hangover. Yeah. I know. First world problems. Alright, I'm going to go out on the weeks because it's the only song that I have in my

computer that is downloaded because I'm worried about the internet here because it sucks so hard. Have fun the rest of your time in Mexico. Thanks. I might not be here much longer. I might get the fuck out of Dodge. You sound like,
