Your Favorite Thing with Wells & Brandi - The (not) real Michiel Huisman stops by!
Episode Date: June 5, 2019It is finally here: Michiel Huisman has a voice and it’s sexy as hell! He most likely has a name too but he still is Michiel to YFT. Wells makes him confess all the gushiest things on behalf of the ...questions you guys sent in, including his fave thing about Brandi, if it was love at first sight, and who made the first move in the African backcountry. He also admits that Tish is the Cyrus he is most excited to meet, and Wells loops him in on the understanding he and Tish have if anything ever happens to Blood (i.e. Wells could someday be his father-in-law). We also learn some very colorful Afrikaans swear words (hint: just say English ones with a weird accent), and Michiel has to explain to Wells that The Ghosts and the Darkness was a film and Val Kilmer did not fight any lions in real life. We also chat about some faves and lots more. Enjoy! We love our sponsors because they support YFT and give our listeners cool deals... so you should too!

who knows oh my god it's pretty great over here you know i know i've been to south africa it's
beautiful there it's beautiful and everything seems so cheap to me because our dollar goes so far over
here.
I'm like, shoot, like it's great.
Yeah.
But how do you make money over there, Brandy?
That's that's the problem.
They're quite sure therein lies the issue.
I know.
Well, you know how a lot of people do buy coastal like they live in L.A. and New York
like half the year and half the year.
Maybe you can be by continentalcontinental is that a thing it may be but i feel like it's a lot
easier to do that that's like five or six hours commute rather than 30 hours yeah that's true
but it's hard but i would love to have a place here and spend our winters in the states here
because it's summer here yeah man i'd never have to live through winter ever.
That's endless summer, Brandy Cyrus style.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.

Make sure there's a guest bedroom for old Wells and Sarah to come hang.

much trouble with my family why did you see all the freaking stories that came out of last week's podcast?
Yeah.
That it was, I mean, I said it like in joking, like in passing, like the only time that me
and Sarah's parents, my parents and Sarah's parents are going to meet is at the wedding
and no one's allowed to talk about politics, which was like, I was totally joking.
And also like, that's also everyone's family rule is at family gatherings.
No one's allowed to talk about politics or religion.
Like, that's, everyone has that.
And then every freaking news outlet picked up the story and made it seem like it was so weird.
And, like, oh, my God.
So my father texts me all upset being like, are you embarrassed?
Are you embarrassed by us?
And I was like, what?
No.
So anyways, I'm having to walk.
And then, oh, and then I went to a Wango Tango the other night.
Oh, yeah.
And had to walk the carpet.
And literally everyone asked me about that.
And I was like, what the fuck, guys?
This is such a non-story yeah why do we get in so
much trouble with this podcast i know and the thing is like that was a funny joke bit you know yeah
yeah totally oh so insane dumb anyways so dumb wait are we gonna going to have Michelle Hilsman on the show later? Yeah.
So Michelle Hilsman is out right now.
We have been working all day on getting all of his documents sorted for his U.S. visa.
Oh, God.
Come visit.
So he is right now at the computer cafe making scans of all the stuff.
So he's coming back to be on the podcast at the tail end. But he's a little nervous. cafe making scans of all the stuff.
So he's coming back to be on the podcast at the tail end,
but he's a little nervous.
Why?
I don't know.
He's,
he was nervous today.
Has he looked at the questions that we posted on Instagram?
He doesn't even know I did that.
Oh,
well,
he told him he can just come on and say hi,
but once he comes on,
then we'll bombard him with questions.
Yeah.
Also, just like logistically, do you have another set of headphones for him so he can hear everything?
No.
All right.
Well.
We're going to have to share.
Yeah, all right.
Like this.
Like Tish and I did.
All right.
We'll figure it out.
But he, I do, I did tell him that when he comes on, because I've had a few people write me and say that they're listeners from over here and want to hear me say some things in Afrikaans.
So once he comes on, we can share what he's taught me.
What's the one that I remember?
By a donkey.
Do you know what that means?
Thank you very much.
Yeah.
I know, too.
Yeah, that's a good one.
Do you want to start the show?
Oh yeah probably should Probably do it
Bros and hoes you're listening to your favorite thing podcast with
Wells and Branday
I'm in Los Angeles
She is in Africa
She's probably never coming home
And I support her
Do you?
I mean I think you will have to come home
just because of your family, you know?
And, you know, money.
Make money.
So if you spend, you know,
if you spend six months over there
and six months over here, I'm happy.
That just means I get to go visit.
It does.
I think in a perfect world,
I think I could do like three months over here.
Yeah.
And the rest at home.
Yeah.
What about Michelle Huseman?
Does he have any desire to become an American citizen?
I don't know.
We haven't really talked about it.
Yeah.
Because he's never even been.
So every time we start to have a conversation about that kind of stuff, I just kind of say
like, can we wait till you come visit and let you experience it before we start talking
like that? Because like, what if he hates it? visit and let you experience it before we start talking like that?
Cause like,
what if he hates it?
You know?
Can I ask a serious question?
Sure.
You guys dropping bombs?
L-bombs?
L-bombs.
They dropping?
Oh yeah.
Oh,
what?
They've been dropping.
You never told me it.
I didn't want to pry.
How long,
when was the first bomb drop?
Like back in March.
What?
Randy, information that would have been good to know back in March.
Who said it first?
He said it first.
Oh, M gosh.
Did you say it back right immediately or were you like, oh, okay.
So I didn't because it was on the phone.
Like over FaceTime.
Yeah.
Because I was in Canada.
And I didn't say it back right away because like my immediate reaction was that I was a little bit bummed he did it over the phone and not in person.
I was a little bit bummed he did it over the phone and not in person.
But now in hindsight, I'm so glad we didn't wait until this week to say it because that would have been a really long wait.
Yeah, for sure.
Wow.
I'm glad he said it when he did.
Dropping bombs, dude.
This is just happening very fast, and I don't know how to feel about it,
but I'm excited to have him on because
we have a lot of questions to ask. I didn't know what his intentions are with my little boy and I.
All right. This is serious biz. I was going to say, I don't know how long you're going to get
him for, but you can try to work some magic. Yeah. Don't worry. I've been interviewing people
since I was 16 years old. All right. I can crackle Michelle Huseman, okay?
By the way, I gotta say, you've been very
cavalier about him
on social media. I've been seeing a lot
of him on your story. Like, by the
way, Brandy's face is the
brightest color red right now.
I also just worked out, though.
Cut me a little slack. And by worked out, though. Cut me a little slack.
And by worked out, we mean...
No.
No, we did an actual workout.
Oh, all right.
Yeah, you've been showing them a lot on your stories and stuff.
I know, but not like a ton.
It's always like a second or two.
I know.
Or like the side of his face.
Like I'm trying to be like low key.
Wait, hold on.
Can I ask you this question?
Because like I feel like you're Instagramming a lot of stuff and like his family's around.
Do you think his family's like, God, this woman's always on her phone Instagramming crap?
I don't think so.
I've actually been really good about not being on it all the time. And what helps me out is that you guys are all asleep over there
until about 6 p.m over here so i actually don't don't really need to be on it because i like
there's no emails don't come through until it's it's nighttime over here so i don't respond to
emails until later or text and i don't really post anything until everybody over there is awake
because that's where most of my followers are is the stakes yeah yeah so i'm actually not on it a ton but but his mom and sister got
instagrammed i think just so they could follow me yeah which is so sweet yeah sweet but it's also
you know keeping tabs on old brand i making sure things are on the up and up. Uh-huh.
Well, I'm happy for you, and I'm excited to talk to you.
And by the way, I feel like someone revealed his real name in your comments.
I don't know if you saw that.
Leslie freaking Murphy did.
Yeah.
I know.
Yeah.
Did you delete that?
No, because I don't want people to think I'm trying to hide it.
But I also haven't been like, well, secret's out.
Because I don't know that.
I didn't really think that that many people noticed it.
Yeah.
At least it didn't seem like it.
So I just kind of let it go under the radar, you know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I know.
I saw that.
I saw that.
And then I saw someone like reply being like like typical Leslie trying to be in the spotlight
ruining like
and I was like whoa
okay
Leslie just
celebrated a year with her boyfriend Alex
I'm obsessed with them I think
they're so cute really
yes I love him
alright so she will not be in Mexico
for paradise this year.
No, definitely not.
Well, I'm happy for her.
I'm excited for Michelle Hilsman to be on the show.
Let's get into the show because we've got a lot of stuff.
You got some things?
I got some things.
You want to start or do you want me to start?
You start.
Okay, can we talk about why?
I don't know if this happens to you.
And I feel like it doesn't happen to you because I feel like your parents are hip.
But I feel like my parents, they send me a lot of videos.
But I have to download the video.
I don't even know where they're getting like the source video.
Do you get emails from an AOL account from your mom or dad that's like a video that I have to download?
It's not a link to something. It's an
actual, I have to download the
video. Why are
old people
doing this? I don't think
my parents use their phones enough
to even do this. Like, at least your parents
are using their phones.
Hold on a second. Where are you going?
Okay. Call me about
the next thing I'm supposed to do,
if I'm supposed to meet you there or whatever.
Okay.
Love you, baby.
Sarah says hi.
Hi, Sarah.
She's going to Nashville tomorrow because she's presenting it.
Yeah, the CMAs or CMTs or whatever the hell it is.
When do you leave?
I leave manana.
Really?
Oh, wow.
You know, I've told you that my dad still has a BlackBerry, right?
Really?
Oh, yeah.
He will not get an iPhone.
Why not?
So when he sends photos, they are blurry as all hell.
God, dude, blood is just the best right there.
Give him a ding for that.
Did you see that blood performed last night with Cardi B?
Yes.
And Lil Nas X in New York.
Yeah.
I texted my mom and I said, what world are we living in that dad is on stage with Cardi B?
And her response was one that's real fucked up.
Yeah, for sure god that's amazing by the way yeah pretty crazy but yeah i don't know why i have a feeling a lot
of people's parents do this they send you like full emails videos to download and they're always
funny videos but i'm like why don't you just send me the link?
Like, I don't understand this, how this happened.
So yeah, that's where we, that's where we are in the world right now.
All right.
You got, what do you got?
What was some, so, so far my favorite thing is old people sending shitty emails.
I started share noble.
Yeah.
Is that how you say it?
Chernobyl?
No, it's not like the singer Cher Noble.
It's Chernobyl.
Chernobyl.
Chernobyl.
Chernobyl.

Okay so you saw chernobyl

Two.
Two?
Oh, dude, it is.
It's a lot, man.
It's just keep going.

gonna tell you that but then there's only the fifth one the fifth one is out today actually so

for father's day yeah and i came across this this company called story worth have you heard of it
no i haven't okay so basically you
you purchase a subscription for like someone you love uh i.e my dad and then story worth sends them
an email with questions about their life because my dad's getting older right like so i kind of
want to like get all his stories before he like just starts to forget them all you know
so what they do is they simply reply to the email with their stories.
Like the one that like we sent today was like,
what was your first job and how did you get it?
And then he writes, he responds to that email
and then StoryWorth like saves all those answers.
And then after, and so they do this like every week, right?
They ask a question every week.
And after a year, the stories are bound
into this beautiful keepsake book and it's sent to them.

Okay, so have you seen the...
I swear to God, everybody.
I swear to God, this is the last time we'll talk about Game of Thrones for a while.
Oh.
Have you seen the Game of Thrones documentary?
No, I have not.
Oh, yeah.
So good.
Okay.
It's fantastic, okay?
By the way, it's just like the,
it shows you like the logistical issues
that they were having creating that thing
and like basically making a movie
every couple of weeks on a TV show's budget.
And it's like how, why it was so impossible to do and why they had to basically, this
had to be the last season.
Aside from the fact that like cast payroll was crazy.
It was just becoming too expensive to create that thing.
Like they had to end it.
And also like logistically trying to get it done in the time that they
needed to get it done was almost impossible so like just like learning like how they were able
to like fit those puzzle pieces together like create that show is amazing and gives me like a
whole nother level of um of respect for hbo and that production company to be able to do that
but what you're going to love about the Game of Thrones documentary
is the main character,
which is a guy who is an extra,
who like starts as like one of like the Starks
bannermen or like he's like in their army.
And he's like in every season
and he's the biggest fucking Game of Thrones nerd.
And it's just like living it, loving it, like loves the fact
that he's on the show and it's like basically
just like follows his like little
story through the last
season and it is
so good. He's going to be your new favorite
character in Game of Thrones. Hands down.
It's phenomenal. Also,
this is how crazy Game of Thrones was.
This and like how like intricate things
were. There's a guy that is only there to make snow his entire job.
And he has like fucking a bunch of people working underneath him just to make snow.
That's insane.
And also like what's really cool that you like learn about because they wanted to keep, keep you know all the secrets and like didn't
want people to know how the show was going to end they were having to fly people to different
locations to throw everyone else off as to what was happening like they sent the night king down
to spain at like to westeros so people would have thought that maybe that the night king
likes army got down to westeros. That's insane.
They were flying Jon out
to, you know, like they were
flying people, after they had
wrapped, flying people to different places just to
keep people on their toes so they didn't really know how
the end of the show was. That's wild.
Right? Yeah.
I love watching all of
the, I think,
Game of Thrones YouTube. They do like this intense behind the scenes of making every episode.
And those episodes sometimes are half as long as the real episode.
Yeah, I know.
So yeah, the Game of Thrones documentary on HBO.
Go check it out.
Last Game of Thrones thing, I swear.
Lena, who plays Cersei, was on Jimmy Kimmel.
Have you seen this clip?
No.
Oh,
that's fricking hilarious.
It's just her and Jimmy sitting there and they decide to start talking in like game of Thrones talk,
but say,
but saying like normal,
like real life things.
And it's hilarious.
She's so talented that she,
she just kills her delivery.
Well,
one of my favorite memes of the season was like,
shout out to,
you know cersei
lannister for getting paid a million dollars an episode to sit on a balcony and drink wine
that's all she did phenomenal yeah but she paid her dues though remember she had to walk through
freaking the red keep butt ass naked but we were food at her. So she deserves to sit there and drink wine.
Shame.
Shame.
Yeah.
All right.
Let's just,
let's just really,
you know what?
But whatever.
Game of Thrones.
This is like one of our first favorite things that we ever talked about.
So people complaining about us talking about Game of Thrones.
Sorry,
bro.
We've been talking about Game of Thrones since the beginning of this show.
All right.
It's true.
Yeah. So if that's not what you're since the beginning of this show. All right? It's true. Yeah.
So if that's not what you're into, I don't know.
Check yourself.
I don't know.
Before you wreck yourself.
Have you seen Always Be My Maybe?
No.
Oh, it's a Netflix movie called Always Be My Maybe.
It's the main guy from Fresh Off the Boat.
Asian actor, very funny guy.
And anyways, it's a rom-com.
And it's freaking hilarious and amazing.
And you should go watch it.
I don't know what to tell you other than
surprise it's not in the theaters because so good.
And this is just where we are now.
We're like great movies are coming out on Netflix.
Always be my maybe.
Go check it out.
You and Michelle Huseman, go watch it.
You know?
Oh, are you a big rom-com guy, Wells?
I'm actually not a big rom-com guy.
Really?
Unless it's an 80s rom-com, then yeah.
Huge one.
Yeah.
But I will say, this is one of the best ones
I've seen in quite a while all right
so that's cool yeah go check it out dude will do um you know what my favorite thing to happen
on tv last week was what's that cam going home oh getting into the bachelorette i saw her at
wango tango by the way didn't talk to her, though, so rude.
Why not?
There wasn't an opportunity for me to walk up to
her and say hi. I saw her from across
the way, and I was like, oh, there's Hannah B.
I did see Colton, and I got to meet
Cassie for the first time in passing.
She's a very lovely
girl. Yeah, she is.
Yeah, she's very pretty. I literally
talked to her for like three seconds
and had to run
because we were going to go.
We were hanging out
with the JoBros.
How was that?
It was great.
I got to meet Priyanka Chopra.
How's she?
It's fun to say her name.
That's for sure.
Yeah?
She was very nice.
She was just like,
it's funny because Kevin
is a huge Bachelor fan.
And so he was like,
so what's happening in paradise?
You know,
like getting all into it.
And then Priyanka came up and she was like, what show is this?
And he's like, Bachelor in Paradise is the best.
And she's like, I don't know what that show is.
I was like, okay.
I was like, that's fine,
but you should watch it.
It's great.
And anyways, the JoBros,
they're just a good,
they're just, that song, Sucker,
is a very good song.
It's a banger.
It is a banger, dude a banger dude but anyways uh cam going home i'm kind of sad about that why he sucks i know and that's why i'm sad
about him yeah but we still have uh what's the guy's name luke p luke is we still got Luke P, baby. We're good.
We're Gucci.
Oh, yeah.
We're so Gucci, man.
I don't know.
And I still feel like I'm holding out for John Paul Jones to be weird.
Like, I feel like there's a whole other, like, character arc for this guy.
Has to be.
They got to be keeping him around for something.
I know.
I don't like John Paul Jones.
Dude, I'm so annoyed because i'm seeing in this next episode
that they're gonna go play rugby which is what i played in college why do i get the fireman date
where i almost die and they get our acts i would have been so good i would have won that whole
thing i would have yeah fucking destroyed everybody I'd love to see you go back on and do a repeat.
Yeah, no.
Never going to happen, sister.
You were such great TV, though.
I was terrible at all that.
Yeah, I'm actually, I will say this, a testament to Hannah B.
Because I feel like in years past, she would have been pressured by just everyone
to keep Cam around for just TV sake.
And I think she was just like,
no, get this freaking jabron out of here.
And she did.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah.
Who is your favorite?
Do you have a favorite yet?
I told you, I like Tennesseeessee jed i thought he looks cool and i also like the unemployed guy that looks like um uh gerard

Yeah, let's try that.
Okay, hold on, Wells.
Okay.
Give me the white.
Why did you block my camera so I can't see this handsome devil?
Oh, sorry.

Yeah.
Just hold on. Hold your horses. Because of your bling-bling mic. That's why. Yeah. Just hold on.
Hold your horses.

this left ear. This one is probably
the one that goes in.

I bet you did.
She fell asleep though.
You can't come on my podcast and help me.
Wait, you can't say something is your favorite thing
that you didn't watch all the way through.
I loved the parts that I saw.
I think she saw enough to get hooked on it though.
To be honest,
she saw probably about three quarters of the first episode.
I feel like you really get a good idea of what it's like there.
Yeah, a great idea.
So that was really cool.
Love that.
We were going to watch Avengers.
Still need to go and do that.
That's my favorite.
All the Avengers movies.
Captain America is the Iron Man, all that.
Who's your favorite Avenger?
Favorite?
I think Thor. Thor. Yeah? Favorite? I think Thor.
Thor? Typical.
Well, lucky for you!
He's my brother-in-law!
He's your brother-in-law's brother.
Your brother-in-law's brother.
Different.
Oh yeah, kind of the same thing though.
Because they're brothers.
Yeah, I don't know how that works.
I don't either.
Wait, so do you know what you're getting yourself into there, Michelle Huseman?
I don't think so.

Actually, country music has always been kind of very popular.
There's a lot of people that love listening to country.
Miley, obviously.
Miley has been huge here.
The Hannah Montana series and everything.
All the kids kind of grew up watching this.
Yeah.
Are you nervous to meet all the Cyrus's?
I wouldn't say nervous.
I would say kind of excited.
Yeah.
Like really excited to meet them.
Who are you the most excited to meet from the Cyrus clan?
I'm very excited to meet their mom.
I knew you were going to say that. I'm very excited to meet her, Mom, in person.
Because I've spoken to her a little bit, just like on the phone and so on.
And she looks insane.
Yeah, she's even hotter in person, I can tell you that.
All right?
Wow!

that's what michelle's doing he's like damn tish the dish yeah You're silly. Tish the Dish? Tish the Dish. Her nickname. She loves that.

I've not heard this.
Oh, because it's only Wells' nickname for her.
Yeah.
It's his special nickname for MT.
Yeah, I got a special nickname for your mom and for your dad.
No one else calls him Blood but me.
You're right.
You know?
No one else calls him Blood.
Blood?
Blood.
Because he told Wells a story about how people used to call him Blood.
What, like in baseball?
Yeah, baseball.
Yeah, so that was his nickname when he played baseball.
So now Wells calls him that.
Okay.

This makes me very happy.
So you're in Africa.
Did you travel over there with your quip toothbrush?
You know I freaking did.
I know, man.

into the guest house and he was like why what is that on the mirror and i was like that's my
toothbrush and he was like what so i hopefully he doesn't listen to this episode,
but he's definitely getting a quick toothbrush

tell everyone what you do for a living. Cause you got a cool job.
I have a cool job. Yeah. I don't have the worst job in the world. So I'm a guide, a professional field guide in Addo.
Basically, my day consists of driving people around through the bush, showing them animals.
Sometimes we get lucky and we do a little walk.
So then we go walk with elephants, lions, or whatever the case might be, whatever animals are available or whatever ones we actually find.
But it's more about, you know, the conservation side of things in Addo.
Addo is actually doing incredibly well in terms of conservation.
It's a national park, so all national parks in South Africa,
their primary focus will always be conservation.
And working in a national park, obviously obviously you have to then focus on your
conservation priorities but you know working at gora we get amazing guests obviously like
like certain people
is it is it is it frowned yes i do i've been to africa i've been to south africa before but let
me ask you this michelle hughesman is it frowned upon to fraternize with the guests? Like, did you get in trouble?
He didn't fraternize.
Yeah, she fraternized.
I fraternized.
So that's all right.
It was a co-fraternization here. Did you get in trouble?
Very careful and very subtle with what you do. No, no, no. I was always always very good i was always very professional you have to
say professional you know yeah yeah yeah thankfully this one decided to to ask for
for a contact detail so you can't actually thank goodness i think you know she has some ball
i came out very wrong no i didn't are you kidding me you should hear the things that
come out of wells's mouth on this yeah all right listen i didn't. Are you kidding me? You should hear the things that come out of Wells' mouth on this show.
All right, listen.
I didn't actually listen to your show.
I've listened to one episode, which Brent wasn't too happy about.
Oh, he knows.
I told him.
You did?
I told Wells he listened to it because I got mad at Wells.
You got mad?
I was like, look, you made me talk talk about him and then i said he'd never
listen to this podcast and he listened to this podcast what did you expect it's one of the top
200 best podcasts in the comedy sector in a podcast on itunes of course he's gonna listen to
oh boy okay i think we should um i had i told Wells a couple people messaged me and said they want to hear me say things in Afrikaans.
Should we tell them what we've learned?
Okay, go for it.
Wells knows one thing.
Wells, tell them what you know.
Buy a donkey.
Donkey.
Buy a donkey.
Buy a donkey.
Yeah, perfect.
Yeah.
Usually the first thing someone gets taught in Afrikaans, especially when they come to South Africa, is all the swear words.
Because there's some very colorful swear words that you can use.
All right.
Let's go with fuck.
What's fuck?
That's an easy one.
Okay.
It's fuck.
Okay.
But you can use it in very colorful ways.
Okay.
Give us an example.
Like what?
I don't know.
You've been here for two weeks.
I don't know.
You've heard us use fork.
What did you say the other night when I said it and I mocked you?
Fork, y'all.
Fork, y'all.
Fork, y'all.
Like if you see something that you really agree with, you can always go, fork, y'all.
But that's how we use it. That just means fork, y'all. But that's how we use it.
That just means fuck.
I like nice things.
What's another swear word?
What's another swear word?
Cock.
Cock is
shit. But you can use
it for everything.
It's not just this is shitty.
Something can be cock likelacker. That means
very nice. Like insanely nice. Or something can just be crappy and just say, this is cock.
And you can mix it in with English as well. Definitely thought that that was just the
Afrikaans way of saying cock. And literally all your swear words were the exact same just with your accent.
So far we got and
let me ask you this.
In Afrikaans, is bitch
bitch?
It's actually a nice one.
It's tiff.
Tiff?
Tiff.
Alright.
Say
when I look into your eyes, I fall deeper and deeper in love with you.
You are the woman of my dreams.
Brandy, when I look into your eyes, I feel deeper and deeper love for you.
More and more love for you.
And you are the woman of my life.
Love of my life. Oh, I know what that means
she knows that one
the last one
do you know how many women
means love of my life
oh my god do you know how many women
just got so moist
just from listening to that
just so much humidity is happening all across the country right now in the loin region.
OK, so, Michelle Huseman, we we I don't know if you knew this, but we were talking about having
you on the show and we asked people to send us questions for you. So I've got a couple
fan questions for you. Do you have got a couple fan questions for you.
Do you have a couple of minutes to answer some of these?
Yeah.
You can always say no comment.
Okay.
So long as I've gotten out,
because I'm expecting to get some colorful questions.
Your out is no comment.
Okay.
The first one, how did you become a safari guide?
It's just passion.
I got fed up of working, sitting behind a desk and took a little leap.
And the little leap took me straight into the bush.
Yeah, just took a leap, started studying, got into a company called Echo Training.
And they do a syllabus.
They place you in certain places.
You can pick and choose.
And they placed me at Gora, which is where I still am.
Did you say you took a little leap and then you found yourself in the bush?
Pretty much.
Yeah.
That's what he said.
Okay, hold on.
We've got another one here.
What's the coolest thing you've seen on safari?
Coolest thing I've seen?
Hmm.
Well, obviously, everyone probably expects to hear some story of a kill that we saw.
But one of the coolest experiences I've actually had was walking with a lioness while she was hunting.
She was hunting water, and she was then hunting monkeys.
Now, this lioness is a lioness that actually grew up around the lodge.
So she is kind of relaxed with people.
The first day she knew we were there, didn't pay much attention to us.
But just experiencing that, you know,
watching a lion actually hunt while you're on foot,
I mean, there's nothing around you.
I mean, you're out there as a human.
When you're in a vehicle, you kind of get seen as a big metal box.
And the animals don't really mind that too much, so you can get much closer.
But when you're out on foot, you are seen as human, their biggest enemy.
So spending that time with them, actually watching a hunt, it's amazing.
And then, look, walking is just the ultimate thing if you can walk out in the bush if you if anyone comes to south africa try and do a walk
it's one of the craziest experiences because if you're in a vehicle it's it's easy you can sit
and you can chill but if you're out on, you are actually experiencing the bush the way you're supposed to experience it.
Have you done a walk, Wells?
I mean, by walk, do you mean get in like a Land Cruiser and drive around?
No, like walk with your feet.
So you can like drive out to a point and then you get off the vehicle and you go walk through the bush.
You can drive out to a point and then you get off the vehicle and you go walk through the bush.
Next time you come, go to a safari place like a national park and tell them you want to go and walk with a guide.
Then you do a guided walk.
Very similar to how you do a guided drive where your guide takes you on a drive.
Except here they actually take you to go walk. And sometimes you can meet elephants and lions and leopard or rhino or buffalo.
Those are the big five.
You can actually meet them on foot.
And that's always an interesting experience because they see you as an enemy,
not as prey as many people believe.
Okay, hold on.
I said that once.
Yeah.
Wait, hold on i said that once yeah wait hold on you you answered the question being one of your favorite things was walking alongside a lioness as she was hunting a monkey is that what
you said yeah monkeys the one day and warthogs the next day i would assume that the line would be like
fuck going after this monkey this walking next
to me is much slower i'm just gonna kill this guy not quite not quite animals if you look back at
our history we were hunter-gatherers so animals have this instinct towards us as an enemy because
we used to compete with lions for food.
All right.
I mean,
have you ever seen the ghost in the darkness?
Um,
those lions eat,
ate a bunch of humans just saying,
be careful out there.
That was also a movie.
What are you trying to say?
That wasn't real.
Are you telling me that Val Kilmer didn't really shoot those lions?
I'm saying it was dramatized.
Sorry, you have to excuse.
Sometimes my English breaks a little bit.
Are you a big Johnny?
I'm actually a big Johnny.
Are you a big Johnny Clegg fan?
Not really.
Who's that?
Old artist.
He's like the Billy Ray Cyrus of South Africa.
He is?
I mean, when I was over there, he was a big deal, I guess.
He's still a big deal.
A lot of his songs are still a big deal.
I love some of his stuff
But I wouldn't call myself
A huge fan of his
I don't know
I'm trying to go through
These questions
There's not a lot
Oh okay
So last question
This one comes from
Wellness with B
Was it love at first sight
With Brandy Michelle
Oh yeah
Wow
No hesitation No hesitation.
No hesitation.
All right.
We'll stop torturing you.
But thank you for coming on the show, dude.
And it's so wonderful to meet you.
And thank you so much for making my girl so happy.
Did you guys?
Of course.
I'm not really doing much.
She's the one doing all the work.
Oh, stop.
She's the one that flew what?
30 hours.
30 hours. You you see are you
excited to come to america oh super excited yeah i'm so excited yeah when he comes over we'll have
him on again and hopefully it won't cut out and we can have him on we will so he can yeah
and then we have to go on we'll go on a double date. Yeah, we have to. Yeah, that sounds fun.
Yeah.
I would love that.
Okay.
All right, say like your favorite thing podcast
is the best show in the world in Afrikaans.
I have to think about these things every now and then.
So your favorite thing podcast is the best thing in the world.
You have to listen to everything. You don't want to analyze that.
Sounds great, right?
Hard.
All right.
She's really good with this.
Afrikaans.
You must get her to teach you some Afrikaans.
Are you?
Yeah.
No, I'm not.
She's a natural. I just know how to say leave you. Ohrikaans. Are you? Yeah. No, I'm not. She's a natural.
I just know how to say,
leave you.
Oh, yes, thank you.
You're cool for us.
Oh, yeah, you're cool for us.
What does that mean?
You're cool for us.
That means your head is making a noise.
It's a good thing.
Like you're talking too much?
No, it kind of means like you're crazy yeah it means
you're crazy in an endearing way in a very endearing way yeah because normal people are scary
yeah that is the truest thing i've ever heard i think yeah yeah all right well we'll let you go
buddy but thank you for being on the show. No, of course, of course.
I've heard so much about you.
It's nice to finally put a face to the name and actually get to chat with you a bit.
It was really cool.
He's better looking in person, Brandy.
He's a very nice fellow.
I'm very happy for you.
I make him watch your and Sarah's Instagram stories all the time.
Yeah, I'm sorry for all the throw up that you have to endure watching that.
Yeah.
Not at all.
I find it very entertaining.
Since I don't have Instagram, I just kind of watch her stuff.
Yeah.
So she takes me through Instagram every now and then and just like see what she does.
Yeah.
Are you amazed that that many people follow her life?
I'm amazed at the thought of Instagram, to be honest.
Like sitting on a phone and watching what someone else does.
It's insane.
It's insane.
I'm constiped.
Okay, bye.
Okay, bye.
Can I have this back?
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Thank you.
I'm going to change to my headphones my headphones so was he like could you tell
he was like nervous or was that he being normal sweating all over me yeah yeah he's nervous he's
being quiet yeah yeah yeah yeah but i must say it's it's kind of unfair because he's he's so
handsome right oh i know yeah he is He is. Like, I'm serious.
He's one of the better looking men I've seen in a long time.
You know?
He's a cutie.
And then he's got the cool accent.
Yeah.
And then he's got, like, the, I like to save animals and walk around in the bush.
And, like, I don't even know.
Like, you can't even.
Then he's got, got like the philanthropy thing
and Brandy told me he's got a 10 inch wang why did you not say that
well I'm happy for you he seems really nice and I want to meet him in person so it can be so informal to do this on a webcam.
Oh wow, he's taking his shirt off?
What the fuck?
Jesus!
Jesus!
What is his
flaw of his?
He has no flaws.
No flaws, huh?
No.
This morning he didn't agree. Well,
I've been begging him to get his visa
for weeks and he put it off
and I was mad at him this morning because
we got online and it said
there's a 10 week wait to get a
visa and his flight's in like 8 weeks.
Alright, well, It said there's a 10-week wait to get a visa and his flights in like eight weeks. All right.
Well, there you go, YFTers.
What you've been waiting for for so long, the introduction of Michel Hilsman, even though we still don't know his real name, to the world.
And I got to say, he's even better looking in person.
He's like the guy version of Tish.
Well, that's what's happening.
I don't like that what is what is your what is your mom thing is your mom like damn brandy he's fine do it in her yeah her her first words when i showed her a picture of him
she literally said uh i feel like he's more my type. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was like, no, ma'am.
Hands off.
Oh, my God. That's amazing.
The one thing we have to talk about, though, is Miley's EP.
I know.
Have you listened to it?
I have not.
What's wrong with you?
You know, it came out on Friday, right?
Yeah, it did
And on Friday
I didn't listen to it
And on Saturday
I went to
And
Sunday I
Didn't listen to it, and now it's today
So can we listen to it right now?
Is it, what's the song called? Okay, so it's today. So can we listen to it right now? Is it, is it, what, what's the song called?
Okay.
So it's a, it's a six song EP.
Yeah.
The single is called Mother's Daughter.
But it's, it's really a versatile EP.
Like every single song has a very unique sound.
It's really cool.
To be honest, the last track is called The Most
it's probably my favorite
if I have to pick but it's definitely like
the most mellow song
yeah
I'm playing Mother's Daughter
right now in the background
yeah that's a good one to play
so cool oh my god Tish must love this song.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I love that she released an EP
because I feel like that's the trend
that's happening in the music industry
right now is things are going back to extended plays and going further away from long plays which
uh i think that that's more a more sustainable way of making music this is such a dorky
conversation i'm having but it's how i feel and i think it's good yeah no i agree i really um
it's similar to kind of what john mayer did with his like wave one, wave two.
I really liked how he did that.
So yeah, I do.
It's really great.
The other one that I really love is Party Up the Street.
But you should listen to the whole thing.
And I'd love to know which ones are your favorite.
So which ones you want to listen to at all?
I will.
I love Miley.
once you listen at all i will i uh i love miley and i'm just i just will i just want all i want is that miley is the one who kicks your dad off number one that's all i really want
