Your Favorite Thing with Wells & Brandi - The Trial of The Year & The Debate of The Decade

Episode Date: May 11, 2022

Today we’re asking the big questions, like, is anyone team Amber Heard? Wells knows a few Paradise ladies that can cry much better on command. We then pivot naturally to capitalism, and question whether people actually ever work. Basically, we should all just be a little bit more like Europe—Siesta anyone? We then discuss the Kentucky Derby, spring cleaning, and Megan Fox and MGK actually drinking each other’s blood. We also weigh in on the Met Gala, our disappointment with the ending of Ozark, the Dave Chapelle incident, and the fact that Brandi apparently has two pigs: Puddles and Daisy.

I'm gonna need a little minute. You know what I'm talking about? You know what song I'm talking about? I'm gonna need a little minute. Do we think that anyone is Team Amber Heard or is it just Team Johnny? Is there a side of TikTok or Instagram that is pro Amber Heard that I haven't seen yet?

Or is just everyone pro Johnny and everyone's like Amber Heard is a liar and possibly the worst actress ever because she gets on the stand and pretends to cry for four hours. I mean, there's so many people from the Bachelor world that are better at crying on command than Amber Heard is. It's unheard of. Bad joke, because we're talking about domestic violence, which is not funny. But I'm just asking the question. It just doesn't seem like from what maybe, and maybe that's like the prism of the social media algorithm that I'm just asking the question. Like, it just doesn't seem like from what maybe, and maybe that's like this, the prism of the social media algorithm that I'm being fed.

I'm only seeing one part, but just seems like everyone is against Amber Heard. You heard? I could do this forever. And it's not healthy how much this trial has consumed my life as of late. And I'm not proud of it. But it's where we are as a society, I think, or it's just where I am as a human. I'm embarrassed. But it does seem like she's lying a lot. It's what it seems like. I could be wrong, though. I'm wrong all the time.

Let's see what the brand I thinks. Ding, dong, ding. Hi. What's up? Oh, you know, same shit, different Monday. What's going on? Why are you down in the doldrums? Well, Mondays are just a lot of emails and i i'm just

not a sit in the office and answer emails type of gal but i have to be on mondays who are you emailing on mondays oh my agent my manager my business manager you owe this person money bills bills bills do you want to do this project oh here's bills, bills. Do you want to do this project? Oh, here's a gig offer. Oh, do you want to do this paid partnership on Instagram for no money? No, I don't. Oh, look, let's negotiate. Okay, what do we do? Like, it's constant. Sounds like cash money, ho.

That's what I'm saying. Like, you got to do it. Well, those are good problems to have, I suppose. Yeah, but Mondays are like that. And then I respond to everything. Yeah. And usually like ask questions or something where I, then I am awaiting a response and everyone blows me up on Monday.

And then I don't hear from anyone for days. And no one, no one answers anything for like a whole nother week. And then on Monday it just happens all over again. Cause everyone's super ambitious on Monday. And then they're not anymore. It's like Tuesday comes around and everyone's just thinking about the weekend. They're like, you know, I'm going to get X,

Y, and Z done. And then all of a sudden Tuesday comes around. They're like, well, I sent out that email. So now next Monday I will follow up. Yeah, that's exactly how it works. I think that people only really work on Mondays. Me too. Do people even work at all at this point? Is anyone really doing anything? I mean, like when I had an office job, I was so good at doing nothing for very long periods of time. That's America right there. This is going to probably get me some flack, but like capitalism really is pretending to work under the guise of like a go-get-em attitude yep and you know what like every time if you've done any traveling in europe like they got that shit right fuck it we're going

on a three-hour lunch we're gonna drink at lunchtime we'll get back around three o'clock we'll do like 45 minutes of work and then like we're done there's no pretense with europeans they're just like fuck it whereas americans we're doing the exact same amount of work but we're just pretending to do it where europeans are just like fuck it i don't care we're not absolutely they also take off like an entire month for the holidays at the end of the year yeah i don't need more time with my family if i'm being honest but yeah same but. But I appreciate that. Yeah, I'd like to go to the beach for a couple weeks. Yeah, I think I just want to

not fake it anymore. I mean, let's be real. I stopped faking it a long time ago. But for our listeners out there... Let's be real. You and I shouldn't be complaining one bit. No, I'm not complaining. I had a lot of emails. I'm complaining a little I'm not complaining. I had a lot of emails.

I'm complaining a little bit. You are. I had a lot of emails today that I had to deal with. Here we are. Here we are. Aside from the crippling issue of typing on your computer, how else are you doing? Pretty good. The weather here in Nashville is fantastic.

Finally. It's that time of year where you've got like a two week window of warm weather with minimal humidity and a nice cool breeze. It's not going to stay long. So when it's here, you have to really take advantage and get outside. So I did get outside a little bit today, which was nice. Also today's my brother Brazen's birthday. Oh, happy birthday. Happy birthday Brazen. I think that was it. That's it. Wow. Yeah. And it's late for you. You were the one who suggested this time for us. It's 5 o'clock my time, which means 7 o'clock your time. Usually on Mondays, I don't have to feed any of the animals. Usually my girls have Mondays covered. But today I do the PM shift. And the horses eat at 4.30 sharp.

shift so and the horses eat at 4 30 sharp so i was down there from like 4 30 to like 5 30 or so and then i needed to come back up here and have a bite to eat so that i wasn't hangry while talking whilst talking to my wife tears do horses eat twice a day or once a day twice a day so they do it like a 6 30 at in the morning and 6.30 at night? Or 6.30 in the morning and 4.30 at night, is that what you said? So we feed at 7.30 in the morning and 4.30 in the afternoon. Okay. Yeah. So horses, obviously, like in the wild and stuff, like horses are out eating grass all day, right?

Yeah. Like they're eating 24-7, just little bits of food all the time. So because that's how they're meant to be existing, their stomachs are meant to be eating 24-7. So the best thing to do for horses is feed them, you know, small amounts of food over a longer period of time. So it's better to feed them twice a day than feed them like twice as much food one time a day. It's like not as good for their stomachs, you know? Speaking of horses, did you watch the Kentucky Derby? I did not, but I did see that Rich Strike won. I knew he was the underdog.

I love an underdog story. Yeah. I heard a little bit of the controversy about he was biting, you know, what's the guy's name that ponies them in? The other guy was like biting the other guy and his horse went afterwards and everyone's like up in arms because that that rider was like hitting it. I've heard all these things. Yeah.

Here's why I don't watch the Kentucky Derby, though. I just can't watch those jockeys beating the horses to the finish line. Like, I just can't do it. Like in in my sport, in my equestrian sport, there are rules. You can carry a crop. And by all means, sometimes it's like a kid. Sometimes, you know, you just got to slap them around a little bit if they're being disrespectful, but we have a rule that you can't hit a horse more than twice in a row consecutively.

Like if you take a whipping and whack, whack, whack, you're not only disqualified from that class, you get in big time trouble with the Federation. And I, I think the same rules should apply in horse racing. I think, you know, one know one smack maybe two but more than that and i'm sorry you should be penalized because that's abuse do you think that those horses know what the fuck's going on like i mean i think they i think they are i think those horses are bred to run yeah and i think those horses love to run yeah okay yeah I mean, listen, athletes like to be athletes. But do you think that they know, man, I got to be faster than the next horse next to me? Or do you think they're just like, what the fuck is happening? This guy's insane on top of me.

What's going on? I think they have no idea that they're in a competition with all this money with all this money and obviously, but I think some horses like they are bred to do that. It's like a dog that's bred to be a working dog, like a German shepherd or something like they are definitely wired to run. And I do think horses can be competitive. And, and, and I think some of that, like, you know, horses are herd animals. So if you've got a more like alpha horse, like it's probably going to want to beat the other one and be first. So like, I do think that exists. And then obviously there are the horses that don't try as hard and don't win as much. So it is interesting. And I do think some

of those horses love it, but I don't think you should have to beat them across the finish line with a whip. Yeah. I mean, I agree. I think it's insane that we do this, I guess, with horses. I think dog races are fine because the dogs are chasing after that bunny that's going around. So they, you know, so there's like, they're like, I got to get that fucking thing, you know? Imagine the horse are just like, what is this guy doing? He's like, really in a hurry. Listen, the horse is all jacked up. He just won the fucking Kentucky Derby.

And he's nipping at the, you know, the mare or whatever. That's supposed to calm him down or whatnot, but he's all jacked up. He just won the fucking Kentucky Derby. And he's nipping at the mayor or whatever. That's supposed to calm him down or whatnot. But he's all jacked up, you know? Oh, yeah. He's probably on some steroids. I feel like everyone cheats on that, you know? It's like bike racing. I feel like everyone's cheating.

Well, they test their blood and stuff. Yeah, but the last year, that one guy got caught, and he's a cheater. Pumpkin eater. Oh, yeah, the jockey? No, but the last year that one guy got caught and he's a cheater. Pumpkin eater. Oh, yeah, the jockey? No, not the jockey. Yeah, the horse. The horse. Oh, I don't follow.

I don't know anything. Well, the horse wasn't taking drugs. The stupid owners were giving the horse drugs. Yes, of course, it's not the horse's fault. Obvi. It's never the horse's fault.

I feel like a lot of people didn't really talk about it, but what I did see a clip of online was like, yeah, the horse was all riled up and like biting at the end. And then his groom showed up. So every horse has like a, you know, a specific groom and a groom is somebody that takes care of them on a daily basis. They're the ones that brush them, bathe them, feed them, walk them, all the things. And this guy's groom, the minute he shows up, the horse calms down.

Yeah. And that guy knew exactly what to do to get that horse to cooperate for his photos and pull his shit together and it was just the most precious thing you could tell the guy loved that horse so much it gives me chills to even talk about it i just like loved watching that so much i just put up um on my instagram story i like retweeted something and it's a photo of the groom with the horse and it's just so precious well i got some money me too because the grooms do a lot of work groom with the horse and it's just so precious well i hope that groom got some money me too because the grooms do a lot of work i went to the kentucky derby once and i gotta be honest with you not that great it was a whole day thing for like two and a half minutes of fucking excitement yeah i had to get all dressed up like a peacock i had to drink these

very sugary drinks you had to drink they forced you you gotta drink a peacock. I had to drink these very sugary drinks. You had to drink. They forced you. You got to drink a mint julep. You got to drink sugar water with rum in it. And then, or bourbon, whatever it is. I feel like there's not enough headroom for all the hat situation that's happening. You're constantly being like, whoa, whoa, hat.

Whoa, hat. It's like limbo combat. You're always kind of like ducking and weaving and bipping and bobbing. There's a whole bunch of races beforehand. So you're like, is this the one? They're like, no, this is the preliminary thing. You're like, oh, okay. Well, let me know when like the big one's happening.

And they all look the same. It's like two minutes. You know, it's like my sex life. It's like it's exciting for two minutes and then it's over. You know? Then it's done. Two minutes, huh? That's all you got, isn't it?

Yeah, it's like two minutes and then, you know, spend a bunch of money and a bunch of people are unhappy and, you know. Just like your sex life. Wow, wow, wow.

Just like my sex life. I'm kidding. I am kidding. I am a very generous lover. Oh, God. Can we start the show? I don't want to talk about that. Let's do it.

You or me? I think it's you. Bros and hoes Can we start the show? I don't want to talk about that. Let's do it. You or me? I think it's you. Bros and hoes. Coming on the stretch, we got Brandi, Cyrus, and well, who's going to win in 2022? It's Wells Brandos! That's how I think that they sound, but I don't

even know because I never watched it. You're listening to Your Favorite Thing Podcast with Wells and Brandi. Pretty good though. Like you, it was decent. It was decent.

What's new in your world? I've been doing some serious spring cleaning. There is a very small window of about five days every year where I get motivated to throw shit away and organize stuff in my house. And that's, I'm there right now. I'm there and it's not going to last much longer. But I went through my bathroom. I tend to hoard products, which is not my best quality. Um, but you know, I'm just, I just like think, Oh, I'll try, I want to try that product someday. Or like maybe my hair will turn frizzy one day and then I'm going to need that frizz product. You just don't know. So I tend to hoard. But I went through and I threw away – or not threw away. I actually gave all my girlfriends. I took them a huge bag

of stuff that was unopened products. A lot of it I get sent or whatever and some of it I bought. But I did give it to friends so it didn't go to waste. But I went through and cleaned out everything I don't use, I'm not going to use. And I organized my whole bathroom and it's pristine. I'm so proud of myself. And next on the list is the closet, which is very daunting, but I'm going to do it. Wow. Spring cleaning just feels so good. And for some reason, you truly get motivated to do it in the spring. What? Like, how does that happen? Yeah, you should do it in the winter when you can't leave your house and you're disgusted by the filth of which you live.

But it doesn't happen. No, it happens in the spring. It's crazy. Yeah. Because you're like shedding things, right? Like you're shedding clothing. It's getting warmer. And you're like, ah.

Oh, yeah. It's just a microcosm of what's happening in your life. Yeah, I get it. I can't do that. I'm too lazy. Someone's gonna need to come here

and get this shit. You guys need some stuff? You should see. So Sarah's been gone for well over two months now. It's a long time. Very long time. The amount

of Amazon shopping that she has done and then also like things that have been sent to her is so insane that she has done. And then also like things that have been sent to her is so insane that she has, she has an office, right?

Like where she does her self tapes and you know, her like witch stuff and all this stuff completely full. We look like hoarders. I'm sure. Of boxes. It's insane. Next episode of hoarders is going to be us and it's just going to be her office and it's it's quite comical now because so we have to go to new york for upfronts like very soon and so her team has brought over like a

bunch of clothes and shoes and normally that would go into her office and so she could try them all on but there is no room so in the dining room now we have all the clothes and the shoes and i'm like carl is gonna eat like these chimichu shoes you know like it's gonna happen no and that's on her you know it's not is it there's it on you it's on carl it's on car a little bit, but it's also on her. You know? Don't order so much stuff. Oh, my God. So do you remember when I was talking about how I'm obsessed with Megan Fox and MGK, and I was like, I think they drink each other to blood.

Like, this was a while ago. Mm-hmm. Let me see if I can find the clip to it. I saw that Megan Fox and MGK got a cat recently. Oh, wow. And there's a picture. And maybe we'll show it on the Instagram. It's a picture of like them holding up the cat.

I'm sitting there being like, I feel like they're about to like sacrifice this cat to some Norse god that I've never heard of. Oh, no. Don't say that. They just freak me out. I have to be honest with you. I think that they like drink each other's blood. And I think they actually do that. I got to see what their basement looks like.

There's got to be a pentagram down there, you know. There's got some druid shit. There's some cloaks that I need to know about, you know. There's like bones of an owl that they use to foresee the future or something okay so i said that totally joking around because they weird me out right okay yes and then i saw this the other day and it just blew me away i guess to drink each other's blood might mislead people or like people are imagining us with like goblets and we're like Game of Thrones drinking each other's blood. It's just a few drops but yes we do consume each other's blood on occasion for

ritual purposes only. It is used for a reason and it is controlled where it's like let's shed a few drops of blood and each drink it. He's much more haphazard and hectic and chaotic where he's willing to just like cut his chest open with broken glass and be like, take my soul. Let me bleed on you. It doesn't not happen. Let me tell you, maybe not exactly like that, but a version of that has happened many times. What the actual fuck? Let me cut my chest open with broken glass and bleed on you?

You got props. You got props, okay? Probably not sterile, all right? Just an easy way to get tetanus, some sort of infection. 2022, we're not druids living in medieval times, guys. All right? Just an easy way to get tetanus. Some sort of infection. 2022. We're not druids living in medieval times. Guys, what's happening here? Okay?

We gotta go back to 1997 and hit up HBO and get some true blood. Because this is bonkers. Can I please be friends with you guys so I can come over and be like, Jesus Christ. can I please be friends with you guys so I can come over and be like Jesus Christ you know everyone that thinks that people in Hollywood are like in some sort of cabal or Illuminati this is why you guys are doing this and for what world domination no people magazine clicks get it together so by so I'm was right they drink each other's blood I said that as a joke and they they do that they drink each other's blood now i wonder like if they do have a basement with a pentagram down there that they there's bones of an owl that they use the first of the future you know like what else is happening

in that household or do they just say that as a pr stunt because they know it's a good sound bite and they know it's gonna get impressed but they don really. Can you imagine the powwow that you'd have to have to be like, all right, what are we going to do? You want to do some blood drinking content? Oh, man, that'll really get the people going. Yeah. People will do anything to stay relevant. I guess. But drink each other's blood.

Yeah, just wait until you're like. Struggling. 45 and washed up. Oh, yeah. You're going to be doing some crazy shit. Yeah. Speaking of crazy shit, the Met Gala was recent recently. Did Molly go to the Met Gala?

She did not go this year. No? No. What do you think about the Met Gala? I mean, I kind of live for it, honestly. But here's the thing is like, my friend Kirsten and I were talking about it today. There's a very few people always that go, that actually like do the theme. Like no one about it today. There's a very few people always that actually do the theme. Like, no one really does the theme except for a very few people.

Well, because I feel like people don't really understand what the theme is. No one ever understands the theme. Okay. Okay, so like the theme this year was gilded glamour, right? Yeah. What do you think that means? What do you think that means? Gilded, to me, sounds like the knights of the round table are gilded in gold and frankincense and myrrh and swords and chain mail.

That's what that means to me. Is that what that is? I think so. Should we Google and see what Google says? The Gilded Age. Covered thinly with gold leaf or gold paint. Oh. Wealthy and privileged.

Yeah. He saw plain, decent boys transformed to gilded roostering youths. What does that mean? A roistering youth? I'm not even sure what that word is. Here's the thing I find funny about the Met Gala. Guys shouldn't go to it.

Because every time I look at what, you know, there'll be some big power couple you know pete and kim right and so she's like fucking gilded to the gills and then he's just like in a suit you know with like sunglasses on yeah guys can't peacock like that you know unless you're that's true billy porter like it just doesn't work so So I just feel like it's something for the ladies. And guys... I mean, it is. It is. Yeah, absolutely. Like, I already feel so little at events on red carpets and stuff.

I can't imagine going there with Sarah and being like, wow, I really have no idea what's going on. And I look like an idiot. This Met Gala theme I actually thought was easier to interpret than a lot of them. Do you have a favorite? Was there anybody that was your favorite? No, I don't care about any of it. I think it's... Oh. This is what I don't understand about fashion, all right? And I'm probably going to be in the minority here, but for something like that, what I don't understand about it is no one will ever wear that. So that isn't viable fashion for people to go buy. And if the whole idea of fashion is to make a trend that people want to go use, then that thing makes no sense because no one's going to be gilded in gold and chain mail. What are we living in the Hunger Games in the district?

Are we Caesar Flickerman drinking blood? I think for this, it's more like fashion is art. And I think that, you know what I mean? Like it's more of like a costume type thing. Say what it is. It's a costume competition. All right. It's Halloween in May. There's so many different types of fashion.

There's runway fashion. There's fast fashion. I mean, there's so many different interpretations of it. And like there is like a part of fashion that is art and and that's what a lot of this is like these designers create something specifically for this night uh you know on theme so it's like it's an art contest for these designers to an extent i'm sure you saw a picture of blake lively from the met no the thing that i saw was Ryan Reynolds looking after her. What a great guy Ryan Reynolds is for, you know, find a guy that looks at you the way

Ryan Reynolds. Looks at you the way he works. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Can we all just get a Ryan Reynolds? Is that too much to freaking ask for? Yeah, I know, but he stole the fucking show there. She's wearing something. I have no idea.

The only thing that I remember is that Ryan Reynolds was like taking pictures of her. That's because you have a crush on Ryan Reynolds. That's not of her. That's because you have a crush on Ryan Reynolds. That's not because he stole the show. Everyone has a crush on Ryan Reynolds. Blake was queen of the Met, as she should have been. Her gown was beautiful. It was like an artistic representation of the Statue of Liberty. And she literally did like, it wasn't even a wardrobe change.

They literally transformed the dress midway through her carpet walk. It was so sickening. And it was beautiful. And she did a great... I mean, she looked great. And she was on theme. And it was just all everything. And she wins Met. So if you need to see a correct representation of who did Met right, it was Blake Lively. I always want to take high-powered hallucinogens and go

to that thing one time and just be like, oh my god. The giant cheeseburger's talking to me. That's Katy Perry. Okay. Giant cheeseburger is talking. Whatever, it's just silly to me. Do you have any favorite things?

Bro. Bro. Did you finish Ozark? Yes, and I have thoughts. Okay, I do too. So I think we're going to have to do with the thing where we say, if you don't want this to be spoiled, you need to fast forward five minutes because we have some things to say.

Yeah, we have things. Yeah, so if you haven't seen Ozark yet, fast forward now. Yeah, in three, two, one, fast forward. Off the bat, did you like the final season or not? I didn't. Same. Yeah. It just did not. And I really didn you like the final season or not? I didn't. Same. Yeah. It just did not.

And I really didn't like the ending. Same. And I think it's one of those things where it's just really hard to end something that's been so good for a very long time, a la Game of Thrones, Sopranos, Seinfeld, anything like that. You can't live up to what the show has been. This season didn't have any compelling characters. Like once you killed off the crazy bitch that grew the heroin,

like a really good villain was gone and they tried to replace that with Wendy, I think. And you didn't get the payoff of Wendy dying in the end. So the car accident, which was so out of the blue, it seemed so weird, not in context at all. It was very confusing. And to have that car accident and no one even got hurt, like that Wendy should have died in that car accident. I wish Jonah had killed Wendy. Well, that's what you've been saying from day one, that you want it to happen. But then, if that happens, though,

then sweet, sweet Jonah, I mean, just has such a mark on his baby soul forever. I don't know. There's a part of me that wants to believe that Jonah is still good. Jonah killed a good cop. I know. So, no, him killing his terrible succubus of a mother. good. Jonah killed a good cop.

So, no, him killing his terrible succubus of a mother. But he's all flesh and blood! I know, but she's terrible! She's awful! And there was a part of me that thought that the cartel leader, Navarro, was gonna get away, and then he didn't, and I was like, okay. Also,

there's a weird thing that happened that season where I totally thought that wendy's brother was alive and was it gonna come back into the picture like they made that scene very weird yeah they did you know like they didn't show them getting killed they show them building digging the hole and you're like oh maybe he's still alive see that would have been a good twist it would have been great if he came in at the end or whatever yeah did you know that that actor is dating kaylee cuoco i saw that good for her random random i guess yeah other things that i hated about all of that really weird to bring in the in owner from the first season to the end just to have her like kill the assassin and what i was thinking the entire time was you

can't kill ruth off because ruth is the one character which you can build a show around going forward if jason bateman doesn't want to do this anymore which i i could totally understand off to bigger and better things this has been a thing that you've been doing for a while but they kill her and that moment where she's like well you, you gonna fucking do it or not, you know? I'm sitting there being like, oh my God, you know what's gonna happen is the girl that's been staying with her is gonna be up on that roof again,

and she's gonna kill the assassin, and that's how we're gonna keep Ruth alive. Well, that didn't happen. I mean somebody that was such a massive character had to die though yeah well I get that

if it wasn't if it wasn't gonna be Wendy then it had to be Ruth I guess so what do what do we take away from the ending what happens aren't they fucked

once the woman figured out that it was Ruth that killed her son and it was no longer her brother like wasn't the whole thing over so are they

is everyone dead? I think probably. That's why I can't see how there's going to be any sort of spinoff. I can't either. I think it's over. I know, but at least give us the payoff of seeing them die. I know. I know.

It was still good. So yeah, it was a bit of a letdown. It was a weird last couple episodes. Like, I hate to be a hater but i was disappointed same like i don't care about wendy's father bible beating child beating father didn't care about him didn't care about the the guy who found jesus there at the end like there was all these sidelines where i was like i don't give a fuck let's get back to like wendy getting killed or something yeah i Or when Ruth shot, and it was early in the, before it was too soon for it to happen,

but when Ruth shot, what's that guy's name? Yeah, I don't know. Navarro's nephew. Yeah, whatever. That guy. When she shoots that guy, part of me really thought

she was going to then turn the gun and shoot the mom. Wendy? Wendy, thank you. I really thought she was going to literally just turn the gun and shoot Wendy, and I would have loved that.

I would have too. Yeah. Still a good show. I just didn't love the ending of it. I just didn't love the end of the season. Or the series finale. Have you been watching The Circle? No, I don't watch that show.

Dude, The Circle is back. You love The Circle. I mean, I do and I don't. I think it's a genius television show. It's got to be so freaking cheap to make. My only complaint about The Circle, and I think this happened in the first season, and now every season subsequently,

people act like that because they think that's how they're supposed to act because that's how it was in the first season, where someone will say something like, oh my God, I'm so excited to be here. Winky face, happy face, hashtag ride or die girls, winky face, kissy face, head explosion emoji. And then someone's like, oh my God, Carissa's so nice. I can't believe she said that. I love that she said that. I'm like, who the fuck talks like this?

Especially when you're by yourself reading this shit. You'd be like, okay, whatever. No one talks like this. Everyone in that show is full of shit because no one talks like that. And then they brought in, here's the kicker. At first, I was like, this is dumb that they're doing this. They brought in Scary Spice and Baby Spice on the show. Weird.

Yeah, it's weird. They jumped the shark last season when they couldn't get Lance Bass, so they got Lance Bass's manager for some reason that was pretending to be Lance Bass. It's very weird. And then this season they've got the Spice Girls, but they're pretending to be another guy. And at least Scary Spice says it like it is. She'd be like, oh, fuck that bitch.

This is bullshit. This is fucking bullshit. Where everyone's always like, oh my god, she said hashtag like girl gang for life. Oh, it's so cute. I just feel like everyone's full of shit. I will say this, though. Frank is an amazing reality TV personality.

He is great. He's going to be a star. You're going to be a star, kid. My favorite thing in the world, though, I'm just like two episodes in, so I'm not spoiling anything. But there is a girl that's the dumbest. And she's pretending to be her father, who's a real estate guy. But she doesn't know anything about real estate so she changes his occupation to i think sex therapist which i don't know with

you know whatever they have like a little thing if you were writing your memoir what would it be entitled so this girl who's like 23 is pretending to be her 57 year old father or whatever there's also a professional basketball player a girl who played for the harlem globetrotters so the girl from the harlem globetrotter goes i don't know what the word memoir means and so and then the girl that's pretending to be the 57 year old guy goes same don't know what a memoir is and everyone's like You're almost 60 years old and you don't know what a fucking memoir is? Like what is happening? It's the best thing in the world

It's so good, so terrible I'm just annoyed that Everyone is just like It's so sweet that they said that They're all fucking playing a game And it was a circle on Netflix Good shit I'm rooting for Frank.

I want Frank to win this bitch. We'll see what happens. I also love the Spice Girls. Still do. Okay. Yeah. Still do. Too good.

They're still great. Well, after a long month of no Grey's Anatomy, Grey's Anatomy finally came back this past week. Uh-huh. Kay,

I was just bragging on you, Grey's, for having so much Dr. Marsh after I kindly asked for more dr marsh on my television okay this new episode i patiently waited the full hour and there's no dr marsh until the literal last like 60 seconds of tv that's not enough oh my god it's not enough how dare dare you? He's so hot. Would you do him? Yes. Yeah. Zero question. He is the new McSteamy.

Did you think McSteamy was hot? No, but you can never replace McDreamy. So there can't be a new McDreamy, but there can be a new McSteamy. Yeah. All right. Yeah. Were you ever a Mike Myers fan? No. You weren't ever big into Austin Powers or Wayne's World or any of those movies?

No, no, because I wasn't a teenage bully. That's true. Well, for the YFTers out there that were big Mike Myers fans, he has a new show out on Netflix called The Pentavrit, Which is pretty funny if you like that type of humor, which really is Mike Myers playing every fucking character on screen. Except for Keegan-Michael Key. An unlikely Canadian journalist finds himself embroiled in a mission to uncover the truth and just possibly save the world himself. Pentavarite. and just possibly save the world himself. Pentavorite.

So it's five guys who are in a secret club like the Illuminati. They keep saying it's like the Illuminati, except they're nice. And so four of them are played by Mike Myers. He does a Russian guy. He does an ex-agent for the stars. He does a billionaire who used to own like Fox News and you know so on and so forth and then King and Michael Key is also part of one of the five. If you are into Austin Powers or So I Met an Axe Murderer or Wayne's World I think you will love this. If you are not you might not like it. So this is really for the YFTers that grew up in the 90s that are probably boys.

Let's be fair. Okay. So none of our listeners. Great. Yeah, exactly. Fair. But I've been watching it and it has been catching my attention. Okay.

There you go. All right. And then I watched another documentary um on netflix called the meltdown have you heard about that no do tell dude i'm telling you the fact that we haven't destroyed this planet more than we have i think is is pretty amazing the fact that we haven't like extincted ourselves is that a word? Extincted? We haven't gone extinct already? It's kind of bonkers. Anyway, so there's a documentary on Netflix called Meltdown Three Mile Island. Here's the tag. Insiders recount the events, controversies, and lingering effects of the accident at Three Mile Island nuclear power

plant in Pennsylvania. So, do you remember when, I don't know if you watched it, but the Chernobyl thing? Oh, yeah. I loved that show. I thought they did a really good job. Mm-hmm. I remember watching it being like, these stupid fucking Russians, or Ukrainians, wherever it was.

I can't believe they would allow that to happen. Come to find out, we fucking did it. And I think we did it first, maybe, at Three Mile Island. We totally fucked up a nuclear power plant and didn't know what was going on and started having a meltdown and all this stuff in Pennsylvania. And of course, we did the thing that we as Americans do.

If anything really bad were to happen, no one would tell us. It would be- No chance. Yeah. They're having a full-on meltdown and not a figurative one, a literal meltdown.

And the government's like, don't be a bitch. It's going to be fine. Just stay right there until it's like, they've got those little meters out. And they're like, we should have kids and

pregnant women leave let me tell you something if anyone ever says we should have kids and pregnant women leave you also need to have 37 year old men leave too okay because i i don't know there's a huge difference between me and a pregnant woman i we both have skin and bones and blood. You tell me that nuclear fucking fusion is going to be like, we're going just after the pregnant women. They're going after all of us. What kind of crazy world is this?

They're telling you that the pregnant woman's life has more value than the 37-year-old man. Well, not in 2022. You got to cut that. Well, it's true. It reminds me of the Titanic. Obviously the boat is sinking and they're like,

it's just, it's all fine. We're all fine. Just keep playing instruments. Like we're, we're Gucci. Okay. No,

we're not. Yeah. No, the poor people need to stay down there and then we'll get the women and children on the boat and uh the men will be fine because they're not susceptible to freezing cold waters no it's ridiculous the world is ever ending i think that we now know the government isn't is just not going to tell us and that's fine yeah we'll be the last to know we'll just all be dead and be like what the fuck just happened and then it'll be like four guys that you know in heaven being like sorry uh we didn't want to cause a panic uh so we didn't say anything meltdown three mile island god damn what year did that happen do you know i want to say like in the 80s okay

not that long ago no so maybe maybe the chernobyl thing did happen beforehand but interesting i got a question for you okay what do you think there are more of in the world eyes or legs probably legs because there are so many four-legged animals okay what about fish though that's true a lot of fucking fish a lot of you're right there's a lot of fish you're right so do you think now there are more eyes than legs but think about all those little insects with a zillion legs. Yeah. But then insects also have a lot of eyes sometimes. Like spiders have like eight eyes or something. Uh-huh.

Uh-huh. But they've also got like eight legs. That's true. Very true. Damn, I don't know. Is there an answer to this? I have no fucking clue. That's something you should ask somebody when they're stoned as hell.

Yeah. Ask your mom that tonight yeah too good i don't know if you saw it on tiktok but there was a question what are there more of wheels or doors oh yeah i did see that what do you think do you think there are more doors or there are more wheels i have have no idea. Okay, back to my original question. Do you think there are more eyes or legs? I have no idea. I'm sticking with legs, I think. Sticking with legs. There are so many fish in the sea. There are like a million, like zillions of them.

Although, we are killing them at a rapid rate. We are. If you want to get real. You know, British people amuse me to zero in have you ever heard how british people how they refer to math as maths like i'm really good at maths i feel like there's other words that they say like um rain like can we say rain yeah i'm pretty sure other countries they say rains. The rains are coming in instead of the rains coming in.

I miss the rains down in Africa. See? Actually, I think the exact lyric is, I bless the rains. And that's weird too. Yeah. So I've also heard people not from America say monies. See? What? Well, I mean, I guess from America say monies. See? What?

Well, I mean, I guess I want plural monies. I don't want just one money. I want multiple monies. But maths never made any sense to me because we don't do that. I mean, do you guys say like, all right, Lev, after maths, I'm going to histories. You don't say that. Third period is P-E's. No one...

Why is maths plural to you? It's just math. Yeah, I don't know. If we have any British YFTers out there, what the fuck? Love? What's happening? Why are you saying it like that?

That's weird. Yeah, it is. Although something tells me that we're the weird ones. Oh, yeah, because it's their language. I'm sure we just butchered. Yeah. I saw this on the internet the other day, and I thought it was really interesting. Speaking of school, the way that we were taught about American history, it was a bunch of religious people who were being prosecuted for what they believed in. So they left and they came to America to

create their own world. And you know how they teach it over in England, what happened? Tell me. That it was a bunch of crazy religious people who like, they were like, get the fuck out of here. You guys are weird. And that makes so much more sense. It really does. So much more.

You're right. So much more sense. You want to get Nero V. Wade or what? Not sure we should do that. Yeah. Are you keeping up with the Amber Heard, Johnny Depp of it all? Or like, you're not into that? Oh, not really.

But I have a great, great sound clip from that to play you. And you would sometimes drink whiskey in the mornings too, right? During this time period. I, you know, I mean, isn't happy hour anytime? It's too good. Like that's the shit I care about is just these short clips that go viral on social media of Johnny just being hilarious. Yeah.

It's, I feel like I was talking about this before I called you that I, like public opinion is like, it seems like fully with Johnny Depp. I know, fully. Here's the thing. They're both actors. If you try to keep it together in your brain, they both could be full of shit. If we're being honest, Johnny is the better actor. So he might be just much better at this.

That's true. But Amber seems so bad at acting. Like, she's up on the stand, fake crying. Like, she can't squeeze out any tears. And I'm like, we got to send this girl to reality TV boot camp. All those girls that I have to, like, bartend for every summer in Paradise, they can cry on command. And this girl can't cry.

You're right. I mean, the fact of the matter is they're both crazy totally listen it's just they're both crazy johnny's just funny yeah crazy so we like him more yeah so that's maybe that's the takeaway is so i think what we've learned is you can be as crazy as you want as long as you're funny you can you can just kind of float through life which is like really what i'm banking on at this point like that oh boy i mean like that's my bread and butter right there speaking of being funny do you have any thoughts on the dave chappelle thing that happened the other night oh i don't know about that oh he was doing a show at the hollywood bowl

and someone came on stage with a gun but it wasn't real gun. It was a gun that like when you pull the trigger, a knife came out. Still a weapon. What? He tried to tackle Dave Chappelle. And then Dave Chappelle kind of like shrugged him off. I guess Jamie Foxx was there. And then like a rapper, Chris Rock, was there. And they dragged the guy off stage.

And then I think that Dave Chappelle beat the shit out of him. And then Jamie Foxx like broke his arm. When you look at pictures, this guy's arm is broken. No way. And then, of course, Chris Rock has comedic timing of a golden god. He comes out and he's like, was that Will Smith? And then, of course, everyone laughed and whatnot. Oh, gosh.

Anyways, dude, it's crazy out there. You can't tell jokes anymore. You can't. So I'm not sure that your bread and butter is going to be sticking. I know. Damn. Did you know that in California, they're passing a law that you can't put food compost in the trash anymore.

You have to separate it. Did you know that? I did not know that. Yeah. You better look that up because apparently that's a thing. This is not an thing this is not an ad you can put anything you want in the trash the trash guy gonna be like ding dong um excuse me there's a banana peel in here uh you're in trouble well like at my house they will not take any trash that's not in a trash bag like if you can't just toss something in the bin like it has to be in an

actual trash bag or they will just fucking leave it in the trash bin it's annoying but also like i get it but anyway so you can't put you can't put food directly just in a you can't put like raw food in the trash anymore in california apparently um but so simple human that makes the fancy aluminum trash cans they came out with this little attachment, this little aluminum attachment, it looks like a mini trash can, that hangs on the side of your trash can that's for composting, for like food waste. And you put it in there and then you toss that in your food waste bin when you go outside. Genius. Do you have a garden that I don't know about? No, but you know what I was thinking? My pigs would love all of my leftover food yeah

so i think i'm gonna start composting but for my pigs i think that's a great idea and i didn't even know you had pigs so i have two pigs you learn something new every day puddles and daisy puddles puddles is a big girl that's a good name yeah i will say that anyway composting get on board it's a thing it's a trend do you have any musics i'm gonna next week because young nicky's dropping some new music oh shit i came across this band i don't think this song's new but i really liked it have you ever heard of this band called the backseat lovers uh-uh this is a song called kill me girl that i really enjoyed it's not new but it's new to me, so... So we chase Jack with love And waste away the whole afternoon

I overheard that she was 19 So we got the air of no one's wing Those kind of girls say no one's thing It's got kind of like a Strokes vibe to it With the shins and then like the guitar parts of Vampire Weekend. Anyways, I saw a new song, but I just liked it. It's called Kill Be Girl by the Backstreet Lovers. Cute. This is not new either, but I've been listening to a lot of Surf Mesa lately. Do you listen to them? No. They're on a bunch of festivals this year, actually, that I've been

seeing advertisements for, but one of my favorite songs by them, you can play carried away. It's a good one, but their stuff is great. This has got Madison beer on it. Oh, that one does. The original one does not. I don't think. I feel so much, I get carried away I love to love, I just wanna stay Get carried away, I get carried away

Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love I love to love, I love to love, love, love I'm an open book, typically I feel misunderstood I like that. And you know who else I've been listening to a lot? Who? Is John Kay. Again, nothing new, I don't believe. But I like a lot of his stuff.

Play Happiness. It's catchy. It's catchy. It's cool. Yeah. I got one more for you. Arcade Fire has new tracks out. Big Arcade Fire guy over here. This is called Unconditional and and then in parentheses, Lookout Kid.
