Getting canceled in the first 70 seconds of the show.
Welcome in, Sarah Hyland.
I'm crying.
Don't cry.
Oh, hello, YFTers. I'm with Don't cry Oh hello I have tears
I'm with Wells in Mexico
Yeah you came in last night
Came in last night
I was filming a date yesterday
I told Sarah that I couldn't pick her up
From the airport
Because I was working
And then I was going to have Transpo
Come and get her
And then I was going to have Transpo come and get her. Oh, yeah.
And then...
Then what happened?
You got into town.
Uh-huh.
And who was waiting in the airport?
The little sign that said S. Adams.
Sadams.
Sadams.
Sadams.
She's a bit Sadams.
Oh, no.
But me, I tricked her.
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
You tricked me.
It was so cute.
She had no idea, you dumb bitch.
I had no clue.
I said stupid.
You're so dumb.
I said stupid.
I don't know what that accent is.
I said stupid.
I feel like it's the triumph of Wonder Dog or whatever.
Yeah.
The salt comic dog.
Yeah.
I feel like it's the triumph of Wonder Dog or whatever.
Yeah.
The assault comic dog.
Yeah.
It was, but I actually, my reaction to seeing you,
because my phone was, I guess, still on silent or do not disturb from airplane mode from the plane,
so I didn't see Wells was texting me being like,
have you gotten your bag?
When are you getting your bag?
And so I didn't see it, and I'm walking up.
Yeah, she doesn't respond to my text I but I'm
walking up the ramp you know with my bag after customs and I look at my phone to text him to be
like okay I've got my bag now even though he texted me that already and I look up and there's
my sweet baby angel poopoo face husband Wells Adams and my first reaction in my heart was excitement but then the words you're
so stupid you're so dumb came out yeah so that was a nice way of uh with a smile and a laugh
it's like when dogs are just so dumb they're cute you know yeah anyways so yes I finished the date early because technically we had a hard out because there was a wedding at the Vedanta.
So we had a hard out, which was great.
Love a hard out.
Big fan of a hard out.
Hard outs, hard ons.
Hard ins.
Ooh.
Hard ins.
Jack and a hard in.
So I got to go pick you up And then we came back here
This is your official first day in paradise
What do you think?
I want to say
For the past, what?
Six years now
I've been singing Almost Paradise
And guess what while I have tears
It is paradise now
It's not almost, it's here
I'm here
And it is beautiful I'm not going to lie don't lie
can i say like where you stay kind of yeah so well stays at like this really cute like casita type
hotel boutique thing and the balcony is right above to the left of Bachelor in Paradise Beach. So there are certain day beds and cabanas
that you can see from your balcony.
And I get out there.
It's like the sun is like kind of starting,
has like kind of already gone down.
So it's like twilighty.
And I see a day bed.
I'm like, oh my God, babe,
that's the breakup day bed
where everybody gets dumped.
This is so exciting. And you were like, no, that's the breakup daybed where everybody gets dumped. This is so exciting.
And you were like, no, that's not it.
And then.
Yeah, it was.
I was like, well, we call it wedding bed.
Oh, wedding.
Well, there have been so many breakups on that bed.
I know.
And it's funny that you say that, that you've noticed that because the cast hasn't picked up on that.
Like, I don't think they watch a show as much as you have.
And so,
usually someone wants to break up
with somebody else on breakup day.
And if they were smart
and if a girl's getting dumped,
she'd be like, I don't want to go to that one.
I want to go to that one.
Don't take me to that, but it's like the Green Mile.
You know what you're walking to
and it's not going to be good good um so yeah i fangirled
really hard at seeing the all the day beds i was even so much i didn't realize how massive
a fan i am until i saw the beach from your balcony and i was even like oh my gosh
that's the day bed that jordan threw the giant teddy bear into the ocean.
Yep.
In his Hawaiian printed romper onesie type of thing.
I would live in bachelor lore for years to come.
I guarantee you none of the kids within the new bachelor fam know what that is. Do you think so?
Yeah, I think most people that listen to this
podcast have been probably...
No, but like the new people
in the Bachelor world.
I told all the kids about that.
There was a sad girl and they were like,
tell me a funny story. And I was like, let me tell you the story
of Jordan
and his womper
onesie. It wasn't a teddy bear.
It was a dog.
It was a stiff dog.
Oh, it was a dog.
Flailing limply in the surf.
Oh, poor puppy.
Yeah.
Anyway, so yeah, you're here.
Maybe later you're going
to get to go see,
like, go on set.
Oh, it's so exciting.
It's a rose ceremony tonight,
so we've kind of got
run of the place until it gets dark,
which will be nice.
That'll be a lot of fun. I'm very, very excited.
You want to start the show?
Mm-hmm.
Is it me or you?
Well, I think the last time I did it

Avocados from Mexico.
That's my favorite jingle.
Yeah.
Because avocados are the greatest.
They're pretty good.
Is that one of your favorite things?
Yeah.
You're starting out with avocados?
Starting out avocados.
Wow, millennial.
I mean, I'm just a fan of guac.
Yeah, me too.
But then he got a little avo...
Is it avo?
Avo toast?
You know, I don't know if I need avocado toast.
It's good, but I feel like it...
Avocado's a very healthy thing.
Yeah.
And then all of a sudden you throw toast in there.
Yeah.
And then, you know, it's not healthy anymore.
Well, if you get like a nice, like a multi-grain or a sourdough type of thing.
That's all bullshit.
Avocado toast, my favorite.
My favorite avocado toast thing.
Yeah.
You got your avocados.
You get soft-boiled egg.
Soft-boiled?
Like a fried egg?
Yeah.
Put it on top?
Yeah.
Some radishes.
Some pickled onions.
Okay, yeah.
Some sriracha.
Yeah, so this is like a restaurant style.
You can make it at home.
Yeah, but I don't know.
I don't.
I used to when I was like 25.
You know what my new favorite thing is?
What?
Ding, ding.
All the rage is Smash Burgers right now.
Oh, I know where you're going.
Yeah.
I'm excited.
All the rage is Smash Burgers.
And I think Tyler Florence taught me this vis-a-vis my other podcast, Two Dudes in the Kitchen.
You get a tortilla, and then you get your ground beef, and you smash it on the tortilla real thin all around, okay?
And then you get a pan, and you put it meat side down, and you cook that ground beef, and then you flip it over, and then you cook the tortilla a little bit.
So then effectively it's like, is it an empanada?
No.
A taco?
No, like an open-faced taco, whatever that is.
Oh, oh, oh.
What are those called?
Shoot.
But you know what I'm talking about.
Yes, tostada?
Maybe, I don't know.
And then what you do is you slice up some tomatoes,
some onions, and some lettuce,
and you put that on top, and then you mix up the smash burger dressing,
which is mayonnaise, mustard, paprika, and then you chop up a pickle,
throw that in there, then put it on top,
and then you have yourself a little smash burger taco.
And boy, oh boy, is is it delicious did you talk about cheese
anytime in there no but you could put some american cheese on there but i don't have any
cheese here so i haven't been doing it like like would you would you melt the cheese when you're
cooking the meat or would you put on like shredded cheese on top for like the taco status or would
you do the melting for the cheeseburger status you know you need to if you're gonna do it traditional you need to do american cheese
but you know what might work is if you put the american cheese down before you put the um beef
on the beef on yeah kind of like um like a cheesy gordito crunch kind of thing yeah yeah yeah you
know those slap anyways i need to do a cooking wells on that.
Yeah, you have to do like a smash burger taco.
Well, I want to make it for you here because I've been making them while you've not been
here.
I'm so excited.
And they're very fire.
But here's the thing, though.
I took you to Crew Meal, which is like our version of Crafty, and you liked that last
night.
It was delicious.
I know.
The best Crafty I've ever had.
I know.
Well, it's not really crafty.
It's just-
It's a catering.
Yeah, it's the resort's catering.
Yeah.
But it's Mexican food and it's delicious.
The meat was amazing.
Yeah.
The beans were amazing.
You were like, what's birria?
The guac was amazing.
I didn't know what birria is.
Yeah, you know what birria-
Birria tacos usually-
It's just a type of way that they cook it?
It's like shredded beef.
Okay.
And a lot of times birria tacos are the ones that you have a sauce to dip in.
Okay.
Do you know what I'm saying?
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's almost like a quesadilla that you make with it, and then you dip it in this sauce
that you make.
Oh my God.
Which is fire.
You're getting me hungry.
I know.
We're doing this around lunchtime. Just leave them.
I wanted to go into town and get some food, but
we gotta do this podcast. But Brandy's
in Rome. Brandy's in Rome.
Looks fire. I'm so jealous.
I know. She was at the
Coliseum I saw yesterday. Or today.
So cool. So many dead
people there. If only my mom would start dating
the guy from Prison Break. you know? If only.
If only. If only, if only the woodpecker
pecker sang.
I don't know what that means. It's from the holes.
Why have tears? Shout out, you know holes.
Baby Shia LaBeouf.
I don't know that movie, but I know holes.
Oh!
I get you.
You know anatomy.
I want to talk about something.
Okay.
I have been very, I've had a very staunch opinion.
I've been steadfast in this opinion for, I would want to say, eight, nine years at this point.
My best friends have been trying to get me to watch Vanderpump Rules since the beginning of the show.
And I was always like, I'm not a Bravo girl.
I would love to be, but, like, I just, I'm a Bachelor girl.
Like, that's who I am.
I'm a Bachelor Love Island girl.
And they broke me.
They finally broke me.
It took almost a decade, but they broke me. They finally broke me. It took almost a decade, but they broke me.
And I started watching Vanderpump Rules from the very beginning.
And now I'm on the first episode of season four, I think.
All right, so.
It's wild.
It's absolutely wild.
It's giving me PTSD of being in my early 20s in la with friends who are like
maybe not the greatest to be around a lot of people are getting drunk throwing punches
crying in a corner it is it is absolute madness and how many seasons are you in
i think i've done three thus far. How many are there?
Ten!
Oh, Jesus Christ.
It is so much.
And this was like, finally, I was like, okay, you know what?
Fine, I'll watch.
And then I realized I was like, oh, there's so many seasons and so many episodes.
And they're all like 45 minutes long.
I'm not going to do that.
Yeah.
But then you went to Mexico and I was like, you know what?
I'm home.
Alone.
Might as well just have it on.
And I am enjoying it.
I get very angry at these people.
But then I have to remind myself that this was shot over 10 years ago.
And they're all just young little babies.
And who doesn't make mistakes?
And they're like early 20s.
So I can't like really like I can't talk shit about anything because
it happened so long ago yeah but it is it is fun to watch who's your favorite character oh
uh well I mean my favorite character is Lisa Vanderpump Tom Sandoval oh it's not Tom Sandoval
not Tom Sandoval he's in the news a lot He's in the news a lot, so I assume he's very popular. Is that true? I mean, honestly, I wanted to.
With this whole Sandoval thing, all of my, your sister-in-law included,
there's like a group, we did a group girls trip to Palm Springs last week.
Yeah.
And it was the like final reunion where Raquel comes out, Rachel, whatever it is,
and they all yell at her and Tom with
this whole Scandival thing.
For those who don't know if you've been hiding under a rock, this guy named Tom and Ariana
were together for, I don't know, eight years.
This is my knowledge from the internet.
But they're not married.
No, but they owned a house together or something.
I know.
And they're like, you know, it's, what is it?
And like Legally Blonde, where it's like if you're together and living under the same household for a certain amount of time, it's like common law marriage.
But I will say this.
It's giving red flags.
It is giving red flags.
I'm using it right.
And I will say this, that I think that Tom used to have some riz.
Oh, throw it in Gen Z, fucking turd.
What is riz?
Like razzle dazzle him?
The kids are saying...
We used to say, he's got...
Okay, so, originally it was, he's got game.
Right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There was a movie called, She's Got Game.
Yeah.
Right?
Game, swag.
And then there was swag.
Swag was next.
Yeah.
Swag came a little bit later, though.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, I think originally it was like, he's rad.
Then it was like, he's cool.
And then it was like, he's got game.
And then it went into, he's got swag or swagger.
I also was like, Rico Suave was totally somewhere in there.
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
I mean, yeah, there's obviously a lot of them.
And then now the kids are saying is that he's got riz.
Oh, so riz isn't like you've got a sparkle in your eye.
It's like you've got a sparkle in your eye that's fueled by the devil.
No.
It's like he's got swag.
Like he's cool.
He's cool, but not like he's got swag for like as a player.
Well, I think that you can have swag.
I think it's exactly like the word swag.
Okay.
But he's got riz.
Riz?
I want to know.
Where does this start?
I don't know.
Anyways, the whole bit was just me throwing out the term,
and now we've gotten sidetracked.
I'm sorry.
Does Tom Sandoval have riz in season three?
No.
All right.
I don't think he ever has any riz ever.
I remember where I was going with this.
It's a red flag. If you're with someone for eight years and you don't get married.
I know that's a very antiquated thought, but I kind of feel that way.
Unless you both don't believe in marriage and it's to each their own.
We're friends with people who don't want to put it on a piece of paper and have the government involved.
It's definitely a thing of, know come in brah yeah what are
you waiting for also like too old to do that and then he cheated on her with her best friend
in their house while she was in it apparently allegedly i will say this the only thing that
that annoys me about tom sandoval is he's got like little baby teeth uh i don't know if you've
noticed that but like you know and like little baby teeth I don't know if you've noticed that
but like you know and like all his teeth that have like spaces between them it was like for
my teeth before I got braces yeah well and then and then you did the adult things you went and
fixed it yeah I fixed it well I said hey I'm gonna be on TV now I need to fix this and he's been on
TV for 10 seasons yeah can can we get where, where's Cupcake? Can we get some Vision Dental in here?
Oh my God, Cupcake.
Can we fix this
fucking thing?
Chris Stransberg,
please come and fix
this Cupcake.
He's got little baby teeth
and it annoys me very much.
Wimmy, wimmy mustache.
The fact that anybody
is like,
yeah, I want to fuck dad.
He's got like this
creepy stache.
He's got like a bad
cover band. Yeah. He's got he's got like this creepy stash he's got like a bad cover band
yeah he's got these little baby chiclet teeth you know he's on a fucking weird show he's a
bartender like the fact that one person wants to fuck him is a miracle the fact that two people
want to fuck him oh yeah they're like angry that he's fucking multiple people
is mind-blowing.
Mind-blowing.
Absolutely mind-blowing.
I mean, I'm on this season
where like I think
I think him and Ariana,
the girl that he recently cheated on
are like moving in together and stuff.
And I'm still like,
I don't know what you see in him, girl.
But like, good on you, I guess.
But bitches be crazy out there, men be trash,
and it is wild to watch.
I say Lisa Vanderpump is my favorite character.
Is she on it, though?
Yes.
She is?
Oh, yeah.
She's in like every episode.
Is she British?
Yes.
Okay.
She's English, and so is her husband,
and he's actually like, I think he's got riz
does he? cause he just shows up
every once in a while
mumbles something to Lisa
he's like fucking fire her babe
like who the fuck knows what's happening here
and then like leaves
okay
and it's awesome but no
I like her because she's able to stay out
of all the drama by being like, I'm your boss.
I can't listen to this.
But then the next second she's like, tell me everything that's happening.
Why did he?
Why did?
So he's lying to you.
I'm like, what an amazing job that you get to like boss all these people around and say whatever you want.
And they can't really say anything back to you because you're their boss.
Yeah.
You're like, you're stupid.
Don't be with him. And they're like, oh, well, you're my boss. So I guess I have anything back to you because you're their boss. Yeah. And you're like, you're stupid. Don't be with him.
And they're like, oh, well, you're my boss, so I guess I have to listen to you.
Wow.
You're still seven seasons, six seasons away from getting to the three-part reunion of
Scandival.
Yeah.
So, yeah, you got a couple more weeks.
I got ways.
I got a ways to go.
Yeah.
So, is it good, though?
Here's the thing about Vanderpump.
It's so very different from, I guess Bachelor is more of like a dating competition.
I assume it's like the Hills.
Yes.
But it seems, it seems more, it seems actually more like Laguna Beach because they were all
friends and have known each other for such a long time.
Okay.
That like the Hills felt like it was like more produced and scripted than.
Six of one half dozen or another.
This does.
Those are the same things.
But it's wild and I hate everybody.
I give it a ding for myself because I'm finally committing.
Okay.
Unlike Tom Scandival.
Yeah.
I'll tell you what, though.
I saw the numbers.
They were averaging like a.04 for every episode.
And then all of a sudden, this thing happens,
and they're getting a two share,
which is like two million people are watching this show,
whereas before, 400,000 tops are watching this show.
And it's a little Machiavellian in his part.
I don't think that I don't think it is Machiavellian because if there's no way that he like thought he's smart enough to think of this and not think of
getting his baby teeth fixed,
but he has helped make that show relevant.
Oh, yeah.
He's gotten me to watch it.
If there's one good thing that happened from this
is that he's gotten me to watch it
and cave to my best friend's needs.
I actually, my friend, yeah, Sierra sent me this.
It is an article that says,
Vanderpump Rules wrapped Scandival season
as most watched cable series of 2023,
reaching 11.4 million viewers.
Which is crazy because that was like what you,
what like Modern Family got in a night.
Yeah.
Yeah, we did like at the peak of Modern,
we were like 11.13.
Yeah.
On Wednesdays at 9, FSA.
Yeah.
Not anymore.
Yeah.
Like when I first started doing Paradise and stuff, I think that we got like a sick share
was a big one.
Yeah.
And that's half of what you did.
Yeah.
And that was probably for like the finale of something.
And yeah, people just don't watch TV like that anymore, which is crazy.
That's my ding for Vanderpump.
Okay.
Do you want to do something?
I have another one in the chamber.
No, I got a favorite thing.
Okay.
But it's really what women, it's a woman's favorite thing.
Oh.
But it's my favorite thing that I've noticed about women.
And it happened earlier today, but I've noticed this before.
Women love, love when normal sized things
are made miniature
stop no don't make fun of me
no it's not you it's every woman I've ever known
in my entire life
if there's a normal thing
and someone has made it a small
thing oh my god
that is
fucking ecstasy for a woman
I'm crying.
That is, that's so true.
It's so true.
And it's always, it's always the same verbiage.
And it, it spans decades now that I've been witnessing this.
It's always the same verbiage.
And it's always, oh my God, look how cute this is.
Yeah, it is.
Look how cute this is.
Oh, I hate that you're right.
I know.
It's a, it's a very, it, because women love cute things, and I get it.
So how it happened today, and this is a shout out to my other favorite thing, and this is
real, and no one's paying me, but it is my buddy's company, Blister Hot Sauce.
My buddy Jeremy Lister makes this hot sauce.
He's a musician.
I've known him forever.
I've talked about him on the podcast so many times, but he used to come to my radio show,
and he would sing his songs.
He was part of Street Corner Symphony.
Fucking amazing musician,
singer guy. He had this side project
where he was just making hot sauce, and he used
to just bring it in in jars, and it wasn't
a thing. But now he makes it, and it's called
well, back in the day it was called Lister Blister.
Now it's just called Blister Hot Sauce.
And it is my favorite hot sauce,
and I bring it with me everywhere.
Ding, ding, ding. Ding, ding, ding.
I go and I buy, I give it to everybody on Christmas. You do. Stocking ding, ding. Ding, ding, ding. I go and I buy.
I give it to everybody on Christmas.
You do.
Stocking stuffers.
Stocking stuffers, yes.
You need to put the little mini bottles in the stocking.
I've never seen the mini bottle before.
That's what they're from.
So anyway, so I come to Mexico.
Leave it to me to come to Mexico and bring my own hot sauce.
But I just love Lister.
Lister Blister. Yeah, Blister hot sauce so much I just love Lister. Lister Blister.
Yeah, Blister hot sauce so much that I bring it.
Every year I bring it.
And so today, Sarah's like, you know, meandering around the kitchen and she sees the tiny miniature
bottle of Blister hot sauce.
And she's like, oh my God, look how cute this is.
It's so tiny.
It's so tiny.
Oh my God.
And I was like, yeah, well, I brought it here.
She goes, oh, I know.
But anything. It could be anything, oh my God. And I was like, yeah, well, I brought it here. She goes, oh, I know. But anything, it could be anything.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I love the little tiny bottles of, like, you know how, like, Miraval has, like, the tiny, like, two-person bottle?
Yes.
It's so cute.
Yes.
I love it.
I know.
Women love normal-sized things made small.
Have you noticed that for, like, supermodel women, like, tall women?
Yeah.
Every woman. Just, like women? Yeah. Every woman.
Just like every woman. Every woman likes yes. 100%.
Because for me I'm like oh my god it's my size.
I think it goes back to when you guys were a kid
because it's a doll.
Oh yeah like playing house and stuff.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
It's a normal sized person but look how small it is.
Yeah. It's so cute. It's a doll.
Oh. That's funny.
I also think, and what I really think it goes back to,
is the innate nurturing sense that women have for children.
Because that's effectively what a child is.
It's a normal-sized person made very small.
Right?
I guess if you want to get
deep into the psychology of it all.
Listen, I've been thinking about it. Let's start at the very
beginning. Yeah, I think
that it's evolution's way
of making you protect
a very precious thing.
And that's why women love
tiny things.
Normal sized things that are tiny.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
We have to know that it's big before it becomes tiny for us to appreciate the tininess.
I mean, like everyone likes this, but women especially like puppies.
And that's a very good example of that.
I mean, who wouldn't?
Look how little it is.
And here's the thing.
And men don't do this, but women definitely do this.
Teacup sized any animal.
That's a normal sized thing made small forever.
You know?
I think men, I've known men to have teacup animals.
Okay, but that's not normal.
Okay.
Right?
Like, that's, those are like your gay friends that have that.
To each their own.
But you know what I'm saying, though, right?
Yeah.
I feel like the rock.
If there's anybody that would have a teacup-sized animal, it would be the rock. I don't know why, but that's just how I feel. Yeah, because that's a funny juxtaposition. Yeah. I feel like The Rock. If there's anybody that would have a teacup-sized animal, it would be The Rock.
I don't know why, but that's just how I feel.
Yeah, because that's a funny juxtaposition.
Yeah.
Like, there's a bit there.
Yeah.
I get that.
He probably names his, like, little teacup poodle Kevin Hart.
No, no.
Well, maybe.
That's because that's funny and because of their feud.
But The Rock probably has a teacup poodle named, like, Rambo.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's all over the place, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Funny.
One of the things I love about women is that they love normal-sized things made small.
There's my bit for the day.
That is so funny.
Oh, my gosh.
Do you got anything else, brah?
I was thinking about this the other day.
And I'm sure this is just a quick goog away, but whatever.
Here's my question.
Is iron and steel
is that a rock?
Mineral. Iron's a mineral.
Okay. But I guess it could be
a mineral rock. Aren't
rocks minerals? Yes.
Oh, no.
I think it's an alloy, but
Oh, yeah, yeah.
But we mine it, right?
Like, you go and you find iron ore, which is iron,
and then you melt it down, and then it becomes metal, right?
Like, aluminum, I think, is a rock.
Aluminium.
Oh, man, I've been out of school for so long well anyways my thought is is
that's crazy that we like copper i think is a rock it's like that green rock yeah and then you melt
it's crazy so we build a lot of our world around taking rocks and melting them and i thought of
that i don't know some some Some guy threw something in the fire
and was like, whoa,
this rock turned into a different type of rock.
Maybe I can fuck with it.
Anyways, I was thinking about that.
That's interesting.
And then can we melt all rocks?
That's what molten lava is, right?
I guess that's rock melted up.
Yeah.
That's how they terraform islands.
No? No, they do that with sand. with sand that was sand in the Maldives but so then my thought was is well if you can do it with
iron and copper and steel and aluminum why can't you just melt granite and make like granite
buildings buildings do you know what I'm saying Also, where my mind is going with this is, are we going to run out of rocks?
I don't think so.
There's a lot of rocks.
Like, this whole thing is a rock that we're standing on.
And you're not getting rid of it.
You're just changing its form, you know?
Yeah, but you're mining it, and you're taking it away, and you're building it up, so then there's nothing on the bottom.
I don't know.
I guess the volcanoes help us build more rocks.
Yeah, but then it all falls into the ocean and then we start all over again.
It's just this cyclical circle of life.
This is a very stone thought.
I wasn't stone when I was thinking about it.
But I was like, so all we do to build shit is that we just melt rocks.
That's interesting to me.
That is super
interesting i saw it is it's so trippy to think about actually now that you bring that up i'm
gonna do some research after this because i have to know more but i saw a very on like one of the
i don't know like a positive affirmation instagram post it said that you know like there's iron in your blood and everything
that like all of the components that's in your blood are also the components that make stars
yes so essentially we are stardust well yeah and i was like that's beautiful yeah well and we're primarily made of carbon
and carbon is one of the original things that came out of like the big bangs apparently like
made of the things from like the super beginning but i also like to think about it like this and
now like i wish i wish we were stoned right now i know same um so mota so yeah don't they what's funny is that someone is growing weed around here yeah
yeah and i see it every day and it's really funny to me it hasn't flowered yet though so
it hasn't it's very it's still very young very a juvenile plant yeah okay so back to
we're made of stardust right right? Yeah. Here's my question to you.
Shoot.
We are made of the thing that is...
The thing.
The thing, right?
Uh-huh.
So we effectively are that thing.
Yes.
Right?
And if we are made of the thing, of the thing that we're living in,
and we're, let's say we're the only ones able to
experience it is all we are the universe's desire to experience itself because if no one could
experience it then it wouldn't exist yeah right yeah if a tree falls in a woods yeah so i want to
hear it kind of stuff? Sometimes I wonder if.
The universe is just a narcissist?
Yeah.
Like the universe has an ego and it's like, I want someone to see how cool I look.
But the only person that can experience it is me.
So I need to make something that can see me.
Yeah.
I like that.
Yeah.
The universe is a narcissist. I think that we are the universe's desire to experience itself.
So the universe has an ego.
Yeah.
No matter what religion you are, no matter what type of spirituality you believe in,
that higher form of power, whether it be the universe or God
or Allah or anybody, has an ego for sure.
Every single one of them.
In organized religions, much more so.
Yeah.
Like in the Old Testament, it's like, here are the rules.
Here are the rules.
And if you don't like me and pray to me every day, you are going to hell.
Like, that's so incredibly egotistical.
Yeah.
Much worse than me just being like, I think that the universe just wants us to look at it.
Yeah, yeah.
Man, we do sound stoned.
What's going on?
No, we're not stoned, though.
We're not.
I promise you guys.
We've only had, I've had one beer and you've had maybe a sip of that rosé.
I've had a sip of a rosé.
But I will say this, and I did this last week.
This is going to be a bold statement.
Oh, boy.
Bold statement.
Oh, boy.
Get ready, folks.
Fasten your seatbelts.
I think that Mexico might be one of my favorite places in the world.
I love Mexico.
I don't think that's a bold statement.
Well, we live in California.
I'm from Carmel.
So there are some places that I guess can rival it.
Are you saying it is your most favorite, like number one on the list?
It's up there.
So we've done Maldives.
We've done Fiji.
We've gone to Europe together.
We've done France.
I'm not trying to be name-dropping, but I'm just trying to explain.
All the places that we've gone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We've gone to really nice places and if you said
hey wells we can go anywhere for a week I think that nine times out of town I'd be like let's go
fucking Mexico because it's close that's part of the perks okay for me I like I like not having to
schlep on an airplane for a long time I think think it's beautiful. I think it's fucking cheap.
Yeah.
I like that part.
Yeah.
I really like the food.
Uh-huh.
The people are very lovely.
Yeah.
I can come home quickly if I need to.
Yeah.
Living in the States, it's very hard to,
especially on the West Coast,
it's very hard to go find, like,
out-of-the-country vacation place.
Yeah.
You know,
you have Mexico and Hawaii is like still like a six hour,
five,
six hour flight away from LA.
You're much closer to a lot more vacation spots living in a place like New
York or DC or Florida or anything like that.
You know,
you have the Caribbean and you have the Bahamas.
Yeah. You have like the British Virgin Isles you have the Caribbean and you have the Bahamas. Yeah, you have the British Virgin Isles.
You have Mexico.
You have the Bahamas.
You have Puerto Rico.
South America is pretty close.
And that's just Florida.
And then you go up to New York and you're just like a five, six-hour flight from London or Ireland or France.
Yeah.
Anyways, I just love Mexico.
And I also think it's the food.
I really like Mexican food.
It slaps.
The food's got Riz.
It's got Riz.
For sure.
Did I use that right?
I think so.
Yeah.
Food's got Riz.
It's got Riz.
Did we smoke weed and we just don't remember?
No,
I don't think so.
I mean,
we're talking about the universe and how it has an ego and we can't stop talking about
food.
I know.
Also,
Mexico has good golf courses.
Yeah.
The beaches are quite nice.
The drinks are good.
Great.
Here's the thing.
What's the thing?
A great vacation place has a signature drink.
You know?
What's Mexico's signature drink?
A margarita.
A margarita.
Yeah.
Well, Italy's is an Aperol Spritz.
Not as good as a margarita.
Yeah.
I really want to be an Aperol Spritz girl.
Yeah, and then like,
okay, so.
It's the bitters that get me.
What's like a Bahamas drink?
A hurricane?
It's like a rum thing, right?
Yeah, for sure.
A mojito maybe?
That's Cuban, I think.
I mean, when we went to Antigua,
it was like a rum punch.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
They have a rum punch
where it has like a tajin rim
and it's,
I don't know what's in it. It's just a rum punch. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They have a rum punch. It has like a tajin rim and it's, I don't know what's in it.
It's just a rum punch. Okay, so what is the most iconic vacation drink?
I guess New Orleans is the hurricane.
Actually, New Orleans is a Sazerac and then that kind of area is the hurricane.
Yeah, yeah.
I would say there's like for iconic vacation drink, there's the margarita.
Yeah. There's an margarita. Yeah.
There's an Aperol Spritz.
Aperol Spritz is a good one.
Pina Colada.
Yeah.
But what is that?
What is that to that?
I feel like Pina Colada is more of a Caribbean.
Pineapples.
Hawaii.
No.
Because rum is is all.
But the pineapples in Hawaii.
All the pineapple farms there.
Yeah.
Maybe so.
I don't know.
Is that is that Hawaii's signature drink?
I would assume so.
I mean, they had like cane sugar sticks.
What is it called?
Sugar cane.
Sugar cane fields and pineapple farms and everything in Hawaii.
So I would assume that like a pina colada, because that's what you make rum out of, is sugar cane.
So I would assume that a piña colada is Hawaii's.
I also haven't been to Hawaii in a very long time.
I'm going to make a bold statement right here on the podcast.
Next vacation, babe, or at least within the next two or three vacations we have, whenever
those may be, Hawaii, because you've never been.
I have been to Hawaii. What? I just haven. Because you've never been. I have been Hawaii.
What?
I just haven't been in a long time.
You lied to me.
I thought you said you've never been.
Okay.
Pina Colada.
Puerto Rican.
Ah, that makes sense.
Mojito.
Cuba.
Okay.
Margarita.
Mexican.
Capriana.
Brazil?
I've never had that. I haven't had that. A Capriana. I would love to try that. Ahrianaja, Brazil. I've never had that.
I haven't had that.
A caprianaja.
I would love to try that.
Ah, the daiquiri.
Yeah.
That's Cuban as well.
Oh, it's Cuban.
Okay.
The Mai Tai.
That's pretty good.
Thailand.
Thailand.
Oh, Mai Tai.
Long Island iced tea.
Well, there you go.
You got one.
Yeah.
Fucking New Yorker. And the Long Island iced tea Tea Well there you go You got one Yeah Fucking New Yorker
And the Long Island Iced Tea
Will fuck you up
Yeah yeah yeah
That one's tough
Woof
Yeah
Try drinking
Even just one of those
It is good though
It's delicious
But it's got like
5,000 different alcohols in it
All the white liquors do
It's crazy
Number 8
The Blue Hawaii
So that's Hawaii's dream.
Oh, okay.
This obvious Hawaiian dream is the funkiest of all the beach cocktails.
Mix of blue carousel with rum, pineapple juice, and sometimes vodka
makes a vibrant blue beauty that is a great blend of both sweet and sour.
That looks pretty good.
Okay, so that's essentially a pina colada with more stuff in it.
With blue curacao, yeah. So I was
kind, even though like maybe a pina colada
I think Puerto Rico is. Like originated the
pina colada, but like they do
Hawaii has a lot of
doles there.
You fly back from Hawaii, you see people
with like crates of pineapples coming back to the States.
I get that. I'm just saying. To the mainland.
We've also been going to vacation in Puerto Rico
longer than we have Hawaii as like a society.
Yeah.
So, anyways.
Number nine, tequila sunrise.
Mexico's got a second one.
Yeah.
And a tequila sunrise is quite nice.
I love, I love a tequila sunrise.
Here's another one, Bahama Mama.
Ah, oh yeah.
Jamaican.
Jamaican me crazy. There you go. All's another one. Bahama Mama. Oh, yeah. Jamaican. Jamaican me crazy.
There you go.
All right.
I'm proud of us.
We found most of them.
We found most of them.
But I will say this, going back to my premise.
Mexico is on that list twice.
Yeah.
I think Aperol Spritzes have gotten so popular recently.
So that has to be up there as like a summer.
It's like the summer drink that everybody's doing.
It's Lake Como.
Yeah, it's all Italy.
French Riviera, Italian Riviera.
Yada, yada, yada.
Anyways.
Speaking of sunrises.
Selling Sunset.
Yes.
Sunrise, sunset.
Do you know what that's from?
It's from a play.
Not a play.
It's from a movie.
I mean, they made it into a movie. It's from a play. Not a play. It's from a movie. I mean, they made it into a movie.
It's from...
A musical.
Oh, I know what it's from.
It's from Phantom of the Opera.
No.
Fiddler on the Roof.
Oh.
So, the newest season of Selling Sunset came out, say, a month ago.
I don't know.
I waited a little bit to watch it.
I watched the entire season in, like, a month ago. I don't know. I waited a little bit to watch it. I watched the entire season in like a day.
It was ridiculous.
But wow, there's drama on that show.
Yeah.
And I feel like a lot of that show is people just like making claims outside of the show
that then they get a fight in a fight
about on it you know like someone will say to extra or something like that being like i don't
think their marriage is real and then it shows up on the internet and then they get a fight in a
fight about it on the show and stuff and this season is crazy so all the girls are essentially at each
other's throats one of nick cannon's baby mamas baby mamas is on it jesus she's so pretty she's
and seems super dope but like she's on it and then like other people are judging her for having a
baby with nick and there's so there's that whole thing. And then Chrishell has drama with this like other lady.
And she says that she's on drugs and that she's cracked out in front of everybody.
She's like, you're acting crazy because you're on drugs.
I don't know what's in your drink.
And it's like, whoa, lady, calm down.
Those are crazy accusations to make that can like really hurt a person's career professionally,
especially when you're a real estate agent.
Was she on drugs?
No, I know.
She actually, the lady the next day, she goes and takes a drug test the next morning to
prove that she wasn't on drugs.
And they have this like crazy, like three days, girl, three day girls trip to Palm
Springs where they all hate each other.
And I just don't I don't I don't think I could ever subject myself to anything like that.
Yeah.
Like watching that season of Selling Sunset and then going straight into Vanderpump Rules.
I'm just like, why would you do this to your soul?
Yeah, it's kind of similar.
It's so sad.
Just like people just trying to tear you down because of a petty thing or for a real reason.
Like, who knows?
It's just, it is a lot.
And all of these women are like in their 30s and 40s.
So it's like even more wild.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
Is Chrishell the one who was dating an actor yes and then now she's no longer
with an actor and now she's with a woman uh non-binary they them I think I think their name
is like G or something like that G something um okay I think I saw online that they got married
yeah okay so like good for them.
Yeah.
Happy.
It's insane.
My favorite part of the show is when they show the houses.
Yeah.
I love seeing it.
Ding, ding, ding.
One of my favorite things.
I love seeing the houses in LA, what they go for, how much they cost, what kind of tricks they have in them.
And it's wild that you have this like, you you know you're like off of sunset or like you're in west hollywood and it's like a two-bedroom
house for six million dollars just because of its location it's kind of like new york in that sense
yeah they're like girl come over to the valley you'll get so much more what are you doing so
it's fixer-upper but in this season, Chip and Joanna Gaines hate all their friends,
and they're getting a divorce.
Yeah, it's insane.
One of the girls is married,
and I would assume by now had a baby,
with that guy from that HDTV show
that he had with his wife,
and then they got divorced.
It's like Tem something.
So it's kind of crazy but if you're into
trash television yes and if you are into looking at beautiful homes that are cost way too much
money and if you're into women in their 30s and 40s cat fighting ding ding ding selling sunset
and also vpr is Is that the acronym?
Vanderpump Rules.
VPR.
Is that what people call it though?
Oh, yeah.
I've been hearing VPR.
It took me like five years to learn what VPR was because my best friend Sierra was just like constantly talking VPR, VPR, VPR.
I thought it was like a VCR or something.
Or like a way to save someone's life after.
CPR.
Yeah.
VCR.
Yeah. It's all there. CPR. Yeah. VCR. Yeah.
It's all there.
Do you have anything else?
Hmm.
Oh, oh, I have a book.
Do you, though?
I do.
Or did you just buy it in the airport and you've read 15 pages? No, I have a book and I finished it.
Okay, what is it?
It's called The Paris Apartment.
Yeah.
It is written by, I'll look it up.
Where my phone is at?
I'll do it.
The Paris Apartment, written by the same author that wrote The Guest List.
I finished it.
Which you loved, by the way.
I loved The Guest List.
I did not think that was that good, but you loved The Guest List.
I was obsessed with it.
I also, I do the thing that Wells does, which I listen to the books on Audible when I'm driving. By the way,
she is just logged into my account. Yes.
The Paris Apartment, a novel by Lucy Foley. Lucy Foley, yeah.
Do you want to read the synopsis, Beps?
Jess needs a fresh start. She's broke and alone.
And she's just left her job under less than ideal
circumstances. Her half-brother Ben didn't sound thrilled when she asked if she could crash with
him for a bit, but he didn't say no, and surely everything will look better from Paris. Only when
she shows up to find a very nice apartment,
could Ben really have afforded this?
He's not there.
The Paris apartment.
I've read this.
You have?
Is this the one?
Yeah.
I fucking read this.
Did you buy this twice?
I was on your account.
If I bought it, that means that you never bought it. I rock and read this book.
Well, I read it too.
And I'm bringing it to YFT.
It's good.
Yeah, I like this one.
It was great.
This is hilarious.
I definitely, surely, no, I saw the receipt come in my inbox that you bought the Paris apartment.
I was texting you, like, which book should I do?
Should I do the Paris apartment or should I do this other, like, love book that's, like,
should I do? Should I do the Paris apartment or should I do this other like love book that's like they're making into a movie and everything that was recommended to me by my Pilates instructor.
So I loved the book. Definitely like a good like thriller, like murder mystery type of thing.
You're not sure if the brother's dead. You're not sure if he up and ran or if he was murdered.
You're not sure if the brother's dead.
You're not sure if he up and ran or if he was murdered.
So this girl, Jess, from London, you find out that she's from foster care.
Her half-brother, Ben, lives in Paris.
She's in a shit situation, goes to Paris to live with her brother.
She gets to the apartment.
He says he'll wait up to let her up and bring her into the apartment.
When she gets there, He's not there.
He's not answering.
She kind of like breaks in.
And his apartment is completely empty.
Smells like bleach.
So you know that's never a good sign.
When it smells like bleach.
So she goes on this you know.
Kind of hunt to find her brother.
When you listen to it. It's from different perspectives of.
Everyone that lives in this. Paris apartment. So you listen to it, it's from different perspectives of everyone that lives in this
Paris apartment.
So you got the concierge. You got
this like 19-year-old girl, Mimi.
You got like the rich, fancy
lady that lives up in the apartment. You got
actually her brother's
friend from uni,
Nick. And it is
wild takes a turn.
So yeah, Paris Apartment.
Great book.
Some loose threads, but whatever.
Yeah.
I had fun.
I remember I liked that book.
I probably have, I must have talked about it on the show and I read it.
Maybe.
I don't remember you ever talking about it.
Yeah, that's true.
It's fairly new.
I know I read it.
I just told you a lot of things.
Yeah, no, I know.
You know.
Okay.
I feel like we did it.
We did it.
Listen, guys, we're doing a shorter one because
