Your Favorite Thing with Wells & Brandi - The most dramatic "exercise" incident ever
Episode Date: August 12, 2020A couple of weeks ago, we heard Wells’ dramatic retelling of an incident with a swarm of bees; this week, he has yet another riveting story to tell, this time involving a Peloton and a big toe. Clea...rly, the universe has been conspiring against Wells and what would have been his wedding date, but don’t worry YFTers, his toenail will heal and his wedding will happen... eventually. Brandi, thankfully, has endured no injuries this week and has actually been investing in some self-care after receiving a pro eyebrow tip from Kaitlyn Bristowe. The co-hosts discuss the awkward experience that is telling someone their breath is bad, why gum commercials always involve whispering, and memories of dick drawings in high school. Wells and Brandi both have several new favorites to bring you this week, including a book that was long-overdue and a TV show that made Sarah, who has a heart of ice, ball her eyes out.

Hello.
What's up?
I'm watching my brother's Instagram story and he's at gucci
like the store yeah i'm like what are you doing at gucci is he in the one isn't oh no it's the
prada store that's like in the middle of the desert that's in marfa texas what are you talking
about what the fuck is in marfa texas the prada store and that's about it it's just one store
yeah have you seen photos of it it's a literal lone Prada store in the middle of the desert. Honestly, it's on my bucket list to
go there. I want to go there too. It's in the middle of Martha fucking nowhere. That's not
where Trace is, obviously. No, he's just at the Gucci store in Nashville. Yeah. I'm like, first
of all, how you affordin' Gucci? No one's working. Also, you buying it for yourself or your girl?
Better be his girl. I've been into Gucci a bunch of times for Sarah.
For your girl.
There's nothing for guys in there.
Nothing for Wells Adams in there because they don't sell band tees or tight hipster jeans or $10 beanies or hair gel.
Yeah, unless you're a guy from like Dubai who wears fucking Gucci shit.
So rant.
But that's who you see in the Gucci store.
It's like a bunch of chicks
and guys from Dubai.
That's because they're loaded.
I know.
They can buy themselves Gucci.
Guys from Dubai all wear sunglasses
that are way too big for their face.
They have jeans that I'm sure cost thousands of dollars, but look so bad because there's
way too many different patterns on them.
Wow.
But you know I'm right.
How does Dubai have so much money?
Do we know?
I think it's oil.
That's what I was thinking.
Yeah.
It's oil.
Yeah.
But like everyone's just in the oil business or?
Yeah. They're all like, you know, likeudi princes that are just i don't know so it's like joe blows in the oil business and is
wearing gucci i don't know how it all works all i know is those guys wear way too big of sunglasses
that's all i know and wait and their watches are too big what's going on do they not know what size
they are is there such thing is it too big watch i's going on? Do they not know what size they are?
Is there such thing as a too big watch?
I feel like the bigger the watch,
the more expensive and the more diamonds it has.
I know, but it makes your arm look like such a bitch.
You know?
Oh my God.
Says the guy that can't afford a big fancy watch.
Well, fair enough.
I wouldn't wear it
because I don't have very big arms, you know?
I know.
Speaking of working out. my god yes okay so we got a peloton oh
you jumped on that train did you yeah i jumped on that bicycle bicycle i like to ride my bicycle
i like to ride my bike.
Wait.
Where's my bell?
I'll ring it for you.
Fat bottom girls, you make the walking world go round.
Oh, there it is.
Right there.
Idiot.
Literally right in front of me, dude.
Wow. Get on your peloton ride which i've noticed by the way that a lot of the peloton instructors love to play some queen and i don't
hate it you know but like i get it you know so anyways not an ad but definitely got a peloton
and you wish it was an ad i do wish it was an ad. I do wish it was an ad. These things are expensive.
Yeah, they don't mess around.
But anyways, so I sweat like a hooker in church on that Peloton, dude.
I think that's the whole point.
I know.
It's just so much sweating.
I'll go run five miles and be like, kind of sweaty.
And then I'll do 20 minutes with Jason from Manchester, England, who's like,
all right, guys, here we go. We're going up the mountain now. That's Australian,
but you know what I'm saying? That's definitely not English.
Wow. So it is, but I do like it. I mean,
also if you want to follow me on the Peloton thing, I'm Matt Wells Adams.
Oh, brother. I honestly don't know what that does,
but I know I have a screen name and I know people give me high fives sometimes and you know what that makes you feel good okay
i have a non-pelotoner so what's the deal like people can like ride with you virtually is that
the kick like i think originally it was like a screen with cool views of like mountain ranges
or of you know stage 27 of the tour de france and you could like ride and or of, you know, stage 27 of the Tour de France.
And you could like ride and it was like you were there.
Now it's like class where there's an instructor who's like, all right, now we're going to
kick it up to like resistance of 51.
And I want you guys in between, you know, 70 and 85 on your speedometer thing.
And here we go.
We're going up on a climb, you know, and then, and then it's like, all right, we're going
to bring it down.
We're going to relax for a little bit and then we're going're going up on a climb you know and then and then it's like all right we're gonna bring it down we're gonna relax for a little bit and then we're gonna get
back on it you know and then he's playing music and he's like telling you about how great of a
person you are you know that's like the whole thing it's just like it's like soul cycle but
virtual exactly i've never done soul cycle but that's exactly what it is i've even done soul
cycle well i know i haven't but so anyways so i get the thing the other day i don't know if you
guys if you saw that like i, I like broke my toe.
I did.
I couldn't wait to hear the story.
Yeah.
And I was like, don't lift weights.
This is why you don't lift weights.
I dropped the weight on my toe.
And like, you did.
Yeah.
I'm like, try to make it seem like so fucking macho, you know, like, man, I was pumping
some Myers, throwing up some weight, man, trying to get yoked over here, bruh.
Trying to get some big sunglasses and a giant
watch but what really happened was i wanted to grab my peloton i wanted to ride my bicycle
okay i wanted to get up on that bicycle and ride but i was just a skinny lad and i never knew no
good from bad you know so the other thing that happened was that the PGA Championship was on this weekend.
So I wanted to watch some of the golf while I rode my bike.
The whitest statement I've ever said in my entire life.
And that's saying something.
And that is saying something, sister.
So, you know, the Peloton, you can kind of move it around, right?
Normally, we have the Peloton kind of facing out towards the backyard.
But I was like, no, I'm going to turn it around, have it facing the TV so I can watch the golf while I go on my ride.
Here's the thing.
There's a bunch of different classes you can do in the Peloton.
There's yoga.
There's like weight training and all this stuff.
And so on the back of the Peloton and people who've ridden a Peloton, there are these tiny little weights like on the back of the seat, right?
Three pound weights is what we have back there.
Three pound weights. I'm wheeling the thing around and so i've got kind of like the ass end up because
it's like the wheels are on the front of the bike and i'm like kind of wheeling it around and all
of a sudden that three pound weight falls and directly on the big toe yikes the little piggy
that's not so little okay and that little piggy went squealing all the way home.
Bright, white, light pain shot through my body like a shotgun shell from my toe through my asshole.
I have never, I have broken.
Ew.
I broke my tib-fib, compound fracture, playing rugby in college.
Snapped it like a fucking matchstick.
And you know what?
college snapped it like a fucking matchstick and you know what it didn't even come close to the lightning bolt that shot through my big toe and then erupted out of my eyeballs it was
the most insane pain i've ever felt so descriptive yeah question did you lose your toenail or did it
stay on it's still on there but let me tell you something it's not gonna be on for very much
longer well let me tell you something do you recall when i when my whole toenail came off whenever stepped on my foot no
but you told me now your toenail has never been the same it's never been the same so if you lose
it you better prepare yourself for a foreign toenail to be living on your foot for the rest
of your life it's so sad and i'm bumming too because i got good feet man you know i was on the
male celebrity feet remember i was on that fucking Instagram ad.
You're right.
No more.
I'm with you.
I like my feet.
I thought my feet were so great too.
And now it's just never going to be the same.
Yeah, they're good.
It's gone.
It's over with now, you know?
Luckily, you know, I locked in the girl because I don't know if anyone would love me after
what's going to happen to my foot.
You're so right.
And you know what's even sadder?
And this is the truth.
Is that everyone's got a good foot and a bad foot.
You know, like one foot's like been like through a little bit more, you know, done a little
bit more of the work, shouldered a little bit more of the pain, you know, bigger calluses.
And this is the good foot.
This is the one that's been washed in ivory soap.
Yeah.
Oh, what a tragedy.
R.I.P.
R.I.P.
For everyone out there that was like, I was like trying to make it sound like so much
like I like I lift.
I don't even know, bro, if you know if I lift.
No, I was lifting a Peloton and a three pound weight.
I don't even know if they make a smaller weight.
Is there a one pound weight?
Oh, yeah.
OK, well, it's the third lightest of the weights.
OK, and it fell.
It looks so bad. It was so black and blue and purple everyone
even on instagram people were like that's broken i don't think it's broken because i can totally
walk on it it's just it just looks real bad but then what was really bad was the next day
sarah and i and some of our really close friends and my brother and his wife,
we were all going to celebrate what would have been our wedding weekend.
And then I'm just hobbling around.
It was supposed to be a very romantic day.
And so this is what I figured out, Brandy.
He said, God just didn't want me to get married on this weekend.
Yeah.
It is 2020 after all.
What did you expect?
I'm going to throw a COVID in there.
And then, you know, oh, you really, you're still going to go and like try to celebrate.
Oh, let me shatter your foot with a three pound weight.
Your toe.
Yeah.
So here we are.
You want to start the show?
Yeah, I think, I think we should.
Yeah.
I'm gonna let you go because I've been talking for a while, you know, and all the blood has

Guess what I did today?
You went and rode a horse.
I actually did not ride a horse.
Mondays are my day off.
Oh.
I went into town.
Big adventure.
Don't do that often anymore.
Yeah.
You know what? It's tough being a girl.
We just have to do so many, many things for maintenance. Today was the day for some eyebrow maintenance. First
time since COVID that I have paid any attention to my eyebrows. Tried a new thing. Have you heard
about brow lamination? Is it when they take your eyebrows off, they put it in a laminator?
No, but you should Google it. It's pretty intense actually. Um, so I hadn't
heard of this either. Caitlin Bristow filled me in on this little magic procedure. Uh, I was
actually just like casually asking her for recommendation for microblading for a friend.
I don't want to get mine microbladed, but I had a friend that did and she was like,
yo, skip microblading. Cause it's, you got to keep doing it or whatever. and she was like yo skip microblading because it's you got to keep doing
it or whatever and she's like try brow lamination first and I was like how have I never heard of
this because I'm obsessed with eyebrows and how does Caitlin know about something before me I
didn't know but I went in and gave it a shot so I got my eyebrows done today I would say it's like
a subtle difference but I'm here for it so I don't know if Wells if you pay much attention Sarah has
fabulous eyebrows she would have no need to go do this but I don't know if you've ever seen I don't know if Wells, if you pay much attention, Sarah has fabulous eyebrows. She would have no need to go do this, but I don't know if you've ever seen, I don't know if Sarah does this,
but part of getting ready, the thing right now is eyebrow gel to like brush your, I mean,
you like to make the bushy brows that you hate. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know the like editorial brows,
but like, that's like a thing. It's like a brow gel and it just kind of like pushes your
eyebrow hair like upward to make them look fuller and like more done.
And so the idea of brow lamination is it literally laminates your brows,
almost like perms them to stand, the hair to stand up so that they're always look brushed.
Like they always look groomed is like the idea.
It was intense, like 40 minute procedure, I feel, because they have to do two different things and leave it on for a certain amount of time.
But my eyebrows are brushed up just perfectly.
I don't think I'm going to have to touch them for six weeks, which is freaking awesome.
All right.
You got a wrecked brows.
I will say it was very expensive procedure considering how subtle the effect was.
I feel I think it was 60 bucks pre-tip.
And I feel like that's kind of a lot.
So I don't know how often I'll do this, but if I have a reason to make my brows look great i'll maybe go get it done man 60 bucks
for just the tip huh yeah just the tip you're so funny wells that's cool yeah that's what i did
cool you hate it no i actually tried to make the screen bigger so i could see and it just it does
look good but do you
see how they did it they like put this solution on and they put like a plastic wrap over your
eyebrows it's nuts that's the lamination part yeah it's crazy cool very cool you have been
looking fit in your insta pics you've been looking like you're in very good shape i don't like it
it's that farm bod coming in clutch whatever i. I mean, whatever it is, it's working for you, sister.
Also, it really helps being tan.
I'm very tan because I've spent so much time in the sun.
And I've had all this downtime to lay by Miley's pool.
So I am very tan.
Being tanner makes you look fitter.
I don't know what that's about, but it's true.
Yeah.
That's why I try to stay as tan as possible because Lord knows I'm not fit.
Yeah, you're like naturally tan, though.
Yeah, but when winter comes around, man, I look yellow.
I look like I got jaundice.
It's not good.
You know?
Gross.
It's true, man.
I'm just pale.
Speaking of getting tans, I was hanging out in a place that was so hot recently.
Palm Springs. Man, we were in the desert just hanging out in a place that was so hot recently. Palm Springs.
Man, we were in the desert just hanging out.
Oh, yeah, just hanging out.
I think everyone has seen the leaked pics, Wells.
I know.
Where did that fucking pop come from, dude?
Somebody on set is leaking pics.
It's insane.
Do they know who?
Are they trying to catch them?
I don't know.
Like that came out a couple of days later from when I was there.
So I don't know.
And was like, there's a rat in the kitchen.
I don't know if that's a sign.
See, I always think that this is done on purpose, that they purposefully leak stuff because
then it builds so much anticipation for the season.
I don't know, man.
So people talking.
I mean, obviously there's not much
i can say but what do you think is going on oh i see is like what pops up on my explore page really
and i did see a blurry grainy phone capture of you bartending in a hallway on the bachelorette
so you know rumors are flying that they're like putting a paradise twist on this situation i've heard hannah ann
was packing uh not so light and showing up i heard who else did they say was there obviously
taisha but i feel like there was a third one sydney i think was there sydney but i feel like
there was somebody else more like a becca i saw i heard it was there listen i can't confirm or
deny you can't really tell if that's me or not it kind of looks like me but it's you you dummy
so i don't know like everyone's like oh there's three bachelorettes and i'm like
maybe i wouldn't put it past them because they did do the double bachelorette thing to caitlin
and what's her face but i feel like it could be a number of things everyone's like jumping
to conclusions like maybe there are three bachelorettes
or maybe um maybe those girls are just there to like spy like Demi did that one time or like give
some advice like they always bring some bachelorettes in to throw out advice here and there
like you never know true but maybe there's three bachelorettes I mean maybe there's maybe there's
maybe I'm a bachelorette maybe i'm a bachelorette too you
know maybe i'm giving advice who knows no one would take your advice people take my advice
which is i mean or do they just tell you that to make you feel maybe that's maybe that's true i i
will say this though when i saw that i was like hannah ann definitely could be the bachelorette
because she had a big suitcase let me tell something. I bet you that girl travels with that suitcase everywhere.
She seems like someone who's got some options, you know?
She's like, I don't know.
I might need a post brunch and a pre brunch look.
Not to mention she's got a hashtag revolve around the world at least three times a day to get that paycheck.
So that's three outfits a day right there.
Got to.
a day to get that paycheck. So that's three outfits a day right there. Got to. And then,
you know, she probably has to have a eyebrow lamination kit in there and sunglasses and watches that are too big for her. I'd be so jealous if she had her own lamination kit.
Save me 60 bucks a pop. Well, contractually, I'm not really allowed to say anything about what's
going on, nor I want to. But I know that you've heard this a lot it seems annoying to say
gonna be the most dramatic season ever
you ain't lying sister yeah right we'll see when you see what is going to happen happen
everyone is going to be shooketh to the core uh-huh so they say that every listen i don't
know if they're gonna be able to top this one it's bonkers can't wait what's the air date do we did
they even know they pushed it up it's coming up like i think in the fall so oh well yeah can't
freaking wait man i need some need some spice in my life in this covid life oh no kidding man i took a break from my work on the uh
on abc's favorite uh show which i don't even know which one it is could be the bachelor with that
track could be bachelor in paradise and then we could be all three it could be all three but you
know who knows what's really happening out there and then we went and drank wine and wine country
and we weren't gonna let the fact that COVID ruined the wedding day not allow us to get fucked up and pretend to kind of get married.
Which we didn't get married, but we pretended.
You did pretend?
Well, yeah.
Like, Sarah wore, like, a white dress.
And there was a cake, you know.
Really?
Did you, like, say vows?
No, no, no, no, no.
None of that business.
But, like, there was a cake.
My brother and my dad made a bunch of wine for the wedding for us.
And then so we brought some of that to like try it.
So yeah.
Cute.
Yeah. Who knows? Maybe we are married.
Fuck, I don't even know.
I don't even know what's real anymore, Brandy.
You're like, I was too drunk to even know what was going on.
I was.
And you know what?
I was walking around with the mr deeds
john taturo foot it was just black and like had no feeling in it you know sarah and i were gonna
get married and then she looked at my foot and she was like i'm gonna need to wait for that thing to
heal up before uh decide to uh get hitched don't blame her i don't either okay you got anything
else you want to do some favorite things i I think we can do some favorite things.
People are probably bored hearing us talk about nothing.
I know.
I was able to get like 20 minutes out of nothing.
Wow.
How about favorite thing stand up?
Nick Kroll.
I do travel a lot doing comedy.
And what I found is that I don't like going through airport security because I think they have the wrong
people checking IDs. Like, the person
I want checking IDs at the airport
are bouncers, because they're the only
ones who can spot a fake. So, if
a terrorist rolled up, he'd be
like, uh, here you go.
Bouncer would be like,
says you're born in June,
what's your sign, bro?
Uh, I don't't know like a Libra
It's a Gemini get the hell out of here dude
And too many dudes
You brought too many dudes with you
I thought that was funny
I miss clubs
Kinda not really but kinda
I miss going and blacking out at a bar and then
have like falling asleep in an uber and then like waking up the next morning just taco bell fire
sauces stuck to my chest hair maybe this the whole point of this whole thing was to make us appreciate
the things we shit on before i know i've always appreciated TV and I got some shows
that I really appreciate
right now.
Oh,
you old man.
And then,
we started watching
this one today
and I really like it.
It's called
Letters for the King.
Have you heard about this?
No,
never heard.
Okay.
It's definitely YA.
It's like if
Game of Thrones
was YA. Okay, I can get down with that. Okay. like if Game of Thrones was YA.
Okay, I can get down with that.
Okay?
Yeah.
A teenage squire answers a call for help that sends him on a perilous mission across three kingdoms to deliver a secret letter to the king.
So all surrounding like this little boy who's like, I think he's, you know, he's a rich kid.
And he's like having to go to like night school not like going to school at night but like become like a sir knight you know
and he's like kind of shitty he's like not good at sword fighting or like jousting or anything
but he like kind of passes through and he's kind of with his band of brothers that are also going
to become knights and then like one night well evening, they're like doing this ceremony. All of a sudden, this famous black knight with the white shield is dying right outside the doors where they do the ceremony.
And he's like, you need to take this note for the king or else the world is going to end.
But I'm only a 12-year-old kid.
And he's like, do it or the fucking world's going to end.
But obviously, I'm not going to be able to figure it out because I'm 12 years old and
the dipshit.
It's just like the exact same plot as Lord of the Rings, but okay, let's go.
And then he's off, and then everyone's trying to track him down, kill him, but here's the
kicker.
He might have some superpowers.
He got some superpowers.
Oh.
Oh, he got some superpowers.
Okay.
Anyways, it's real good.
But I would say this.
If you're going to watch it, either watch it at night or in a dark room.
Because there's a lot of scenes shot at night.
And you're like, I can't see shit.
What is happening?
Where do you watch this?
Netflix.
And then I will say this.
I will say this.
Season two of Umbrella Academy.
I mean, Jesus.
Jeez Louise.
So good? It's such a good show. Like, it's such a freaking good show. I mean, Jesus. Jeez Louise. So good?
It's such a good show.
Like, it's such a freaking good show.
Like, where they went with it.
Did you watch season one?
No, I never really got into it.
People rave about it.
Oh, so good.
Anyway, season two is so cool
because they go, like,
I don't know,
if you haven't seen it
and you're, like, wanting to do this,
I guess maybe skip forward a couple minutes,
but I'm going to go with a little bit of a
diatribe about it. You know, the first season is all about all these kids with superpowers
coming back together. They've been like estranged to each other for a while. They come back together
for their father's funeral. And then kind of at the end, they're all trying to like stop the end
of the world. I can't really can't kind of do that. So then they go back in time to the 60s
to try to fix the timeline.
Now it's a period piece of like these cool kids with these superpowers, like living in the 60s and dealing with like things that would happen in the 60s.
You know, like the Black Umbrella Academy woman is like now like fighting for civil rights.
And Klaus, Robert Sheehan, the guy who can like commune with the dead, is like starts a cult.
It's just so good.
And I have to say, like Ellen Page is the dead is like starts a cult it's just so good and i have to say
like ellen page is the the one that everyone knows from freaking juno but dude robert sheehan
is i think top 10 actors alive right now he is really i is so good in this show scene stealer
every step of the way so freaking good good. So many twists and turns.
Dude, Umbrella Academy, guys, get in on it.
You as well, sister.
I know, I know.
I've had a lot of people in my DMs telling me that I got to start it.
Oh, my God.
It's so good.
So good.
Okay.
What do you got?
All right, all right, all right.
Calm down.
I am well into season two of In the Dark.
Remind me, did you finish this or did you not really start it?
I don't think I started.
Okay, so it's weird because like season one,
and I gotta say, this is one of those shows
where the little preview they play on Netflix
before you start it, like the trailer,
does not really accurately show the mood of the series.
Like when I watched that little clip, I feel like one of the reasons I was so late to the mood of this series. Like when you, when I watched that little clip,
I feel like one of the reasons I was so late to the game on this is it just
kind of seemed like a mindless comedy in a sense,
like the clip they show.
Yeah.
It's like her buying cigarettes,
cutting the line at the supermarket.
Don't get me wrong.
Like there are definitely some comedic parts to this show and like the lead
girl,
she is funny,
but that is not the main premise of the show at all.
Like once you get
about halfway through season one, it really is like about a murder investigation with ties to
like a drug cartel. Like it gets really serious, but then it also has this like lighthearted fun
side to it because the girl is that she's blind and she definitely like pokes fun at herself and
is funny and does and says funny things. And then also her like place of employment is works at like a guide dog training facility or something. And so there's funny stuff about
that as well. But it's like, I mean, it's good. It's like, it's like you've had a murder. Like
we love crime, you know, and drugs. So that's cool. So I'm like in halfway through season two.
And like, I actually have been caught a little off guard about a couple characters that I thought
were one way and now they're another and like I'm just really shocked
at how good the show is. It's great. Highly recommend.
I think you'd really like it actually. Okay.
You know what I noticed the other day?
What did you notice? Have you ever noticed that like
every gum commercial
always has someone whispering to you
about something? I don't think I pay that
much attention to commercials to tell you the truth.
It's always like... I'm scared.
Ice flavor. Arctic blast in your mouth. Get ready for much attention to commercials to tell you the truth it's always like i'm scared ice flavor
arctic blast in your mouth get ready for flavor town no that's you that's someone different
i wouldn't say that i like consciously picked that up and now that you say it
i do think you're correct cinnamon blast throw in your mouth icicles come out i wonder what what the what
is the deal with that i don't know i was watching one the other day and it was just like
it was just like i'm scared it kills me when you laugh at yourself
ice down watch out breath savers time to clean that breath it's like what are you doing
why are you whispering to me and i think it has to do with like that's what you would do to somebody
who's got bad breath you wouldn't be like hey dude your fucking breath smells like hot garbage
dragon breath you'd be like hey it smells fucking terrible do you want some Orbitz?
Okay, but real talk, have you ever actually told somebody that her breath smells bad?
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah, it kills their self-esteem.
Like, it just destroys. Yeah, like, who did you tell and where were you and why?
I told my buddy Craig in college once.
I was like, did you have some dragon breath, bro?
At the bar, and he was like, oh no.
And then I gave him some gum.
I remember when I was working and I was doing a morning shift and I was working at a restaurant.
I was doing some morning shift and my manager, his name was Gerald.
Now never forget it.
Got there.
I finished up my like pre-opening work, whatever that's called, side work.
And then I went up to him and talked to him and he like literally, I was like, so all right, when are we opening up?
And he would like, he like had to alright when are we opening up and he was like
he like had to like take a step back because he was like
oh god oh my god that's a terrible
he didn't say anything but I knew
I was like oh I got bad fucking
I gotta be the tease immediately
I've told Sarah a few times like in the
morning I'm like
you know your breath smells
fucking horrible
oh my god you do not tell her that arctic blast You know, your breath smells fucking horrible. Oh my God. Orbits.
Do not tell her that.
Arctic blast.
Have you?
No, I'm so non-confrontational.
I would never have the balls to tell somebody their breath reeks.
So I'm not a big gum chewer.
And it's because ever since I can remember when I was a very small child, for some reason, blood hates gum. Like when people
chew gum, he like can't handle it. So when I was a kid, my mom like would never let us have gum.
And if we did have gum, she would like punish us and make us throw it away. Or if we had friends
in the car, they'd be like, no gum in the car, no gum. Make sure your friends don't chew any gum.
Your dad will freak out. Like it's just been a thing, like no gum. And so my whole life, I've just never been allowed to chew gum,
so I never really became a gum chewer.
But now when people offer me gum, because people love gum.
If someone ever offers it to me,
I just assume it's their way of telling me my breath smells bad.
Yeah.
Which it is.
So paranoid.
It can't be that bad.
I brush my teeth all the time.
I don't know if you were joking about telling Sarah,
but like in the mornings when Ryan and I wake up and he's trying to like get it on in the morning, I love a good morning
romp around.
But I, teeth have to be brushed first.
So instead of telling him that, I just always get up and brush my own teeth so that he realizes
how bad his breath is.
So he'll go brush his.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's how passive I am.
That's good.
Is it good?
Or do I have communication issues

We watched a show called Modern Love the other day.
It was really cool.
So is it called Anthropic?
It's whatever when like one episode
is not the same storyline as the first episode.
Or they're not connected? Yeah.
Weird. But they're all connected by
one theme and so this one's called Modern
Love and it's the series explores
love in its multitudes
of forms including sexual,
romantic, familial, platonic
and self-love.
The first one we watched sarah was bawling crying
at the end of it and she has a heart of ice flavor so do i never cry and she was just
bawling crying and it was like the cutest little story it was this woman who lived in new york she
was going on all these dates and she
had like a really close relationship with like the russian doorman and so she was like to every date
she was like you have to meet my doorman and you need to like impress him because afterwards the
doorman would be like he's not one for you and he's like always fucking right and she's like
kind of gets annoyed by it and then she gets pregnant and she kind of leans in this doorman
a lot but like there's no
you know like romantic man in her life and not even with the doorman and everything and then
it's like what that love story is even though it's not like a sexual love story it's like really
beautiful and that episode i mean it'll melt your icy heart will it it was good so modern love check
it out if you want want, you know.
I'll be the true test of that.
Okay.
Because it takes place in New York, that's why Sarah had like a little nostalgia to it.
I put up a little post this week on my story just telling everybody how devastated I was
that I'm caught up on Yellowstone, which by the way, Sunday night's episode was epic.
It was fire.
I never want to talk too much about that show because I don't want to ruin things for people
that have just started it recently, but it's getting even better.
Yeah.
If you can believe it.
Yeah, it's really good.
I just don't know what John Dunn's going to do.
I don't know how the season's going to end.
I'm freaked.
Because it's, you know, I don't have so many episodes to watch.
I was like, all right, I need something new.
So I had a lot of people recommend a show called, I don't know if I'm saying it
right. Longmire? Longmire. Longmire? Longmire? I think so. Yeah. Yeah. They said it just is like
very similar to Yellowstone. So I watched, I watched one episode last night. I feel like
I just know myself enough that I got to, I got to get like three or four episodes in before I judge
it. It says with the help of Vic and Henry, Longmire investigates a backcountry murder with ties to a tribal family.
So that actually does sound like very Yellowstone-ish when you read that.
But here's the issue with Longmire.
And I wasn't the one who said it.
But my friend Kirsten and I were watching it and she was like, you know what the issue with this show is?
And I said, what?
And she was like, no one is hot.
I was like, damn, you're right. no one is hot I was like damn you're right no one's hot
it is important she was like there's there's nothing to live for with the show no one's hot
I was like damn it you're right so we'll see I'm gonna get a few more episodes in before I judge
it but there ain't no Luke Grimes in this show or uh or um uh kevin costner kevin costner i keep wanting to say kevin spacey
for some reason today kevin costner big difference in kevin costner big difference leave spacey off
this show please he's canceled from our show too i got a show that i think that you'd like actually
a lot oh really do you have stars no i don. But does it, I think you can watch stars on Amazon or something. And
it's called Hightown. We started watching it because Sarah's friend, Shane Harper, who was
in Dirty Dancing with her is kind of the lead on it. It's just such a brandy thing. Set in the
world of a beautiful but bleak Cape Cod, one woman's journey to sobriety is overshadowed by a murder investigation
dragging her into its fold.
High town.
Sounds pretty good.
So the main character is this girl Jackie who, like, works for, like, the park service.
So she kind of goes around on boats and kind of bugs fishermen about, you know,
make sure you're not taking pregnant lobsters, you know?
But she keeps on saying she's in law enforcement and all the cops are like, you're not in law
enforcement, all right?
You're a park ranger.
Stop it.
She finds this dead body and she had some demons, all right?
She's fighting some demons.
And she goes to get fucked up one night and she gets a DUI.
And so she has to, it's court ordered that she has to go to rehab.
And while she's at rehab,
she figures some things out
about the murder investigation
because someone that was at that rehab
might've been involved in the situation.
So then she's hanging out with a cop.
I've got this information.
He's like, you're not a cop.
All right, you're a park service.
That's what they sound like
on the show it's just like a good murder mystery set in cape cod complex characters high town good
show okay i'll check it out that sounds good so i realized last episode that i told the story of
going to this party and i someone stole my razor scooter which is like fuck you guy out there girl
and then my buddy paul went to buy
some weed and the guy who sold it to him was like hey let me smell it and then took his money and
then smelled it and then fucking rolled the window up and they drove away it's like still in my
it's such a great story so what also happened on that night like there's so many funny things
happened on that night okay so i'm obsessed with this old land cruiser my fj62 i have it now right
and it was also you know it was the car that I had in high school.
I mean, it's not the same one.
We sold it.
My family sold it.
But so I went and bought back the year make model.
It was such a cool car.
It's like part of my identity, right?
And my buddy Alex Brandt got so wasty faced at this party.
He went to go sleep in my car.
So he was sleeping in the front seat while we were still out partying.
So you know, in high school, when like someone passes out, like you have to fuck with them
for whatever reason, you know?
Yeah.
I mean, no, you don't know.
But this is how cool kids were.
Yeah.
I'm like, no, I have no idea.
Yeah.
Okay.
So this is what the cool kids did, Brandy.
If you passed out.
Let's not pretend you were a cool kid ever in your life. I was like, no, I have no idea. Yeah, okay. So this is what the cool kids did, Brandy. If you passed out.
Let's not pretend you were a cool kid ever in your life. I was cool, man.
So if you passed out, that meant that you were a huge bitch and you had to get messed with.
And someone had to draw a dick on your face, right?
So we go out to the car.
My buddy Alex is sleeping.
Sharpies in hand, like pitchforks and fucking torches.
And we're ready to take him down for being such a bitch.
And so we go up to the window.
So we're all there.
And he's just snoozing, just sawing logs.
And I knock on the window.
And like a rat trap, he goes back and wakes up.
We're shining lights into the car.
He just looks around like he's about to get fucking murdered.
He's like, ah, ah, ah.
And then, bleh.
And throws up all over the dashboard and into the vents in the AC or the defrosting vents.
That was the last day that I was able to drive my 1989 FJ62
because every time you turn the air on, it just smelled like Alex Brandt's puke.
And so we had to sell it.
And that's why I had to get a different one later on.
That's why you sold the car.
I just stopped driving it.
I was like, I can't, like, you can't drive this.
You know, it just smelled so bad in there.
That's disgusting.
But it was pretty funny
speaking of drawing penises on people yeah totally cool
while we're on the topic yeah i was a dork in school i was the kid this is a true story
one time a kid i think i was a senior in high school too. A kid in my class stole my planner. You know how
you had the student planner. He stole my planner and he drew in Sharpie a penis on every single
page in my student planner. And I was so devastated. Not just a couple, every page.
Who was it? What's his name?
Evan. I'll never's his name? Evan.
I'll never forget.
Oh, Evan.
You know what?
Evan's probably bagging groceries down at the freaking Aldi now.
That doesn't pass the smell test because if you go to Aldi, you have to bag your own groceries.
Oh, I've never been to Aldi.
I shop at Holt Fence.
Oh, wow.
I will say this.
I also shop at Publix.
I love an Aldi.
They don't have one out here.
There's no one close to where I live now.
But there was one on the east side in Nashville.
And it's great, man.
It's like a small Costco.
I'm like shitting on it just because it has a bad stereotype to it.
Aldi does.
People do think it's really shitty.
But I have a lot of friends that say that it actually has has like the best produce oh besides Whole Foods obviously but like anywhere
else like it's apparently has like the best produce that you can get so actually I shouldn't
be hating on it but the important thing is Evan's back in groceries and I'm podcaster
I don't know what's better I don't know which one makes more money either
I would say I'm a DJ but one makes more money either.
I would say I'm a DJ, but let's be honest,
RAP to the DJ career, thanks COVID.
Yeah, I don't know, man.
Anyway.
Did you ever watch American Vandal?
Yes.
Where the kid draws dicks?
Oh, no, you just told me about it, and it did. It definitely flashed me back to a very painful time in my life.
Oh, my God. Hearing you talk about that show where are all my twilighters out there stephanie meyer
has finally after decades released midnight sun midnight sun do you know about this no but i
imagine it's is it taking did you ever read twilight i know you've
seen at least one movie what is wrong with you it was so good when it came out the movies ruined
everything the books were so much better uh and so twilight took a four book series for those that
don't know that weren't living on this planet back then um and so twilight was the first book
and it's written from the girl's perspective, Bella Swan.
So Stephanie Meyer like wrote that four book series and then she like teased a book called Midnight Sun.
There was like a couple chapters of it or something.
And it was basically Twilight, like that story, but from Edward's perspective.
Oh.
Fascinating to hear it from Edward's perspective.
But she never released the book.
And it was something like she started writing it and then someone released it, like stole it and released it without, you know, like leaked it or whatever.
And so she was like, screw it, I'm not going to write it.
But I think the fans have demanded for so long that they want Edward's version of the story that she finally released it.
Noah won't stop posting about it because she's the biggest like Twilight fan of all time.
I'm going to read it.
All right.
I've already ordered it. It's on the way, baby. baby okay did you start reading the book that i got you i did
actually buy the pool i'm like three pages in okay i'm going to montana this weekend so i'm like

they were good buddies of mine. Ben
Ringel and I, he was the lead singer. Him and I worked at Brick Tops together as waiters.
He's got, by the way, if you haven't looked into the Delta Saints, they're great.
But you worked at Brick Tops? Yeah, you didn't know that? No, I went on a first date to Brick
Tops once. You totally knew that because you worked at jay alexander's right down the street it was like
way better than no way bro way better different class of food i for actually i've only eaten at
jay's like once or twice but i think it was that great jay's is so good anyways he's got a new
ben's got a new project out called boy Orbison, which is just, that's
just a great name. So I think he's got more music
coming out, but he released a single called See You
Soon. I am
digging on it. So much different than the
Delta Saints stuff, which obviously was came on a
Dobro, kind of swampy blues,
whereas this is very
poppy. Peace. We'll see you soon.
