episode, but I am so f***ing livid right now I can't even tell you. Why? And why can't I put it in the episode? Because. I just... I'm just... cuz. It's not like me to be this upset, but I'm f***ing pissed. You're mad because Apple? You can't put

all the F-bombs in the episode. Why? Because. Because... What if I bleep them? You can bleep them. Explain to me why you're mad. Okay. First of all, I've been on the phone for an hour and a half. Because I got hung up on twice and had to call back and wait 30 freaking minutes on the phone to talk to someone

else after i've already been hung up on and i'm upset because the people i talk to at apple are dumber than boxes of rocks wells i feel bad saying that like but they just aren't smart what did you expect calling apple like you know i can't go to the store because there's a freaking pandemic and all the stores are closed. Otherwise, I would go in and show someone and explain to them logically what the hell I'm talking about. Yeah, I know. OK, but yeah, you know, it's going to take you at least an hour of a conversation. Well, I didn't know it would take 30 minutes just to get someone on the phone. I'm so mad.

Well, come into a happy place. This your happy place i'm livid i get so mad when i feel like i'm being ripped off yeah i feel like we gotta reset we gotta reset we gotta go to a happy place there is no happy place anymore i know but reinhardt's flights canceled trump is stopping immigration i'm paying too much for for my fucking iPhone and life is bleak. I'm serious. The coronavirus is finally hitting you where it hurts. I'm mad. You know, because you were recently being like, I'm kind of, I'm living my best life. I'm thriving during the Roan.

Not anymore. No, now it's over. Now I'm mad. Well, I'm sorry. You know, I'm thriving during the Roan. Not anymore. No, now it's over. Now I'm mad. Well, I'm sorry. You know, I'm amazed at how much I was able to do before the coronavirus. Because I was able to work out. I would film a show. I'd like record podcasts.

I'd record voiceover stuff. Go shopping. I would go to dinner. I'd meet my friends out at bars. Now, literally, I have nothing to do. I'd meet my friends out at bars. Now, literally, I have nothing to do and I get nothing done all day. I feel like you're doing something now. I feel like we're living in a time warp where time is weirdly speeding up and weirdly slowing down at the exact same time, if that makes any sense. Yeah, it does. Well, listen, I know that

you're having a bad day and that's all well and good. And I'm sorry about that. But I have some good news for you and everyone out there. We do have a fun guest on today. Thank goodness. I need a mood lifter. Yeah. Well, I'll tell you what, this person will do that for you. We don't typically have guests on this show. I feel like we have had more recently that we're choosing the cream of the crop here. You know, we had Sophia Bush on recently coming up in a couple of weeks. We're going to have Lexi from cheer on. Very exciting. Very excited about that. And then today we're going to have our good friend, very, very funny lady, Ariel Vandenberg on the show. Yes. Super pumped. Ding, ding, ding. Do you want to start the show oh yeah we probably should huh yeah do you want to start do you want to get out all the anxiety and anger you have

with the intro okay go for it bros and hoes my quarantined peeps yep you're listening to your favorite thing podcast with well some brandy oh sorry i'm such a downer today i'm just like livid i've got something that might cheer you up a little bit. Please. Please cheer me up. Okay. So my other podcast, The Wells Cast, you know who I interviewed this week? Who?

Jason George. Who's that? He plays Dr. Ben on a show called Grey's Anatomy. Yeah. He's got his own show, Station 19. Yeah. Well, so we talked about it. And you're always

talking about this other spinoff of gray's anatomy have you watched station 19 i've only watched the station 19 episodes that are like joint episodes with grace okay because there's a few of those well anyways his story is crazy you should listen to it he was like really good friends with the supreme court justice of virginia was going to law school and like on a whim decided to be like, you know what, I'm gonna become an actor now. And then he just completely threw everything away. Thank God it worked out for him, you know? That's crazy.

He's killing it. What are your thoughts right now on, listen to her fart. She is farting for you. First of all, why is it two hours every week? I don't need to sit there for two hours you first of all why is it two hours every week i don't need to sit there for two hours first of all second of all it would be easy for me to sit here and say that i don't like it but last night i was screaming at the television like the entire time what were you that's like a good sign yeah well i freaking julia needs first everyone's picking the wrong

person why can't the girls just pick the good guys? Why do they have to pick the guy? And like, why can't the good guys just pick the good girls? Not the girls that turn to date like three people. I just, it's frustrating. Sheridan and Julia are so dang cute there.

They sounded great together. She sounded better than he did. And I'm just mad. Like they're so cute. Like, why can't she just be happy with that? He adores her. And instead, she's trying to go after, what's his name?

Ben or Brandon. That's got, like, five girls after him, which I don't understand, because A, he looks short. B, he's not that cute. And I just don't get it. And he is clearly not there to be in a serious relationship. Every single girl has poured their heart out to him and crying and saying how

much they're into it and he's like yeah yeah like he just like doesn't care julia is going down the slippery slope of being the villain telling that right now i mean i gotta say like i'm just i'm watching it being like this is looking real bad she's looking super shady super vindictive i don't know what's gonna happen but i feel like we're about to see some shit go down with julia my other thing was is that natasha she came in too hot with some information all right way too hot like she was just she like came in was like hey i'm natasha let me spill some tea on this fucking douche canoe like it was like whoa let's find out more about you who are you why are you here are you a good singer or are you just a

hairdresser from jersey because that's what it seems like to me not a singer just someone that came in with some tea and just wanted to fucking blow up that whole thing. My other thing about that whole situation was Jamie crying. And I'm sure, yes, we've all been cheated on. And I'm sorry that you've been cheated on. You're just like, this always happens to me. Lady, you're 21 years old. This has maybe happened to you once by like the high school quarterback

that name was definitely Chad or Jake or something. So you need to relax a little bit. It just kills me. Natasha's I don't know if she comes in and she's like, well, who who's on a date right now? And they're like, oh, Jamie and Trevor. And she goes, wait, not Trevor for American Idol. Yeah. Like how many Trevor's the most common name? Like how? Like you obviously do coming into this it's the trevor from american idol don't act like you don't know it's not the trevor from american idol wait wait did you say trevor did you mean trevor from season 12 of american idol where he came in the 37th place that one everyone's like how the fuck did you know that yeah anyways and and i gotta say i gotta say

rudy is on a whole new level of crazy dude she's nuts but i i it's so entertaining i'm here for it saying girl can sing so that's the thing that's the thing i'm like i think that she's being kept around because she got pipes uh-huh well. Well, and she's good television. Oh, yeah, that's right. That whole thing. That, like, last eight minutes between her and what's the guy's name? The guy with the terrible fade? Matt.

Matt. Her and Matt, like, that eight minutes was just so chaotic. I'm like, what is happening here? I, like, can't watch but, like, can't not. And I also loved mel's breakdown she's just crying and everyone's like what's going on with you and then the other girl with fucking pink hair comes in and gets the rose over her oh god it was so good yeah so even though we were this is a second episode it seems like they've been in the house or been with each other a lot longer than just like a week or two.

Right. Yeah. Cause they keep saying like, we've spent so much, I've spent so much time with this person and Mel's like, or you're crying and it just seems like they've spent more time together than it, than we're seeing on TV.

And like, even though we're only two episodes in, I feel like they've spent more time together than, than like a normal timeframe. Yeah. The way it works on paradise. we're only two episodes in, I feel like they've spent more time together than like a normal time frame. I mean, the way it works on Paradise, and I feel like they're loosely using the calendar of Paradise, in between rose ceremonies is generally a four-day shoot. Three or four, depending on how many dates or whatever. Pretty quick.

So let's say it's a four-day shoot. I feel like two-hour episodes, that's eight days. I think they're probably, well, I don't know. They're probably 16 days. Now, I think they're probably well i don't know they're probably 16 days now i think they're trying two weeks in like literally like 14 days in okay that almost seems like longer yeah i don't know i don't know it's weird do you have anything else on listen to her heart i agree with you they need to the run time's too long i don't need two hours i don't need two hours either how old is ryan aka a.k.a. Shawn Mendes?

He's 28. I thought he was a lot younger, and I was just sitting here thinking, like, Natasha is, like, a decade older than this kid, and she is just going in and just trying to stick around another week. Yeah. And I really liked the, what was her name, like, the really pretty Hispanic girl that came in this week. Yeah, like, Mariana. Yes. She was adorable. Agreed. was her name like the really pretty hispanic girl that came in this week yeah like mariana she was adorable and like no one really gave her the time of day and i really liked her i hope she gets to go to paradise i just hope that paradise happens well yeah same all right so are we done with that one yeah we're done with that one funny because like last night i was watching and i was

like eh i don't know but then when i talk it, there is some funny shit that, you know. Now let's pivot to a reality show that I'm fucking loving right now. What is it? Have you seen Too Hot to Handle? No. I mean, holy fuck. Just let me tell you the premise, okay? Okay.

It's paradise, okay? Mm-hmm. The hottest people you've ever met coming to a beach locale. Okay. Everyone is really good looking. Everyone is very, uh, I don't want to say slutty, but I will. Everyone's just down to book, right? There's no host really. There's like basically Alexa, you know, the, hey Alexa. Oh, I just turned on everyone's shit in their house. You know, it's like, hey Alexa, what's the temperature outside? You know? Yeah. It's basically that, but it's got a different name.

They sit down and, and the Alexa tower starts talking to them. If you are at the end of this, the winner gets a hundred thousand dollars. So everyone's like, oh, fuck yeah. But the one caveat is there is no hooking up. There is no kissing. There is no sex. There is no masturbation. If you have sex or if you kiss or if you badge of the witness, money gets deducted from the overall total. What?

So there's this one girl named Francesca who's like just making out with everybody. And just money is just flying out the door. And everyone's like, dude, stop making out with everybody. Maybe she's rich and just doesn't care. I don't know. She's super hot. So no one's able to like stop themselves. And then there's this like really

really dumb British girl named Chloe. But she's really dumb but she is self-aware so it's kind of endearing. You know? Anyways, it's so good because there's just so much sexual

tension. Like everyone is losing their minds. You have got to watch Too Hot to Handle. Okay. Into it, bro. You got anything? Have you seen The Gentleman? Brandy, like literally four episodes ago,

I did like a good 10 minutes on how good The Gentleman is and why I thought that Hugh Grant like deserved an Oscar. Huh? Was it out that long ago? Do you listen to me when I talk on this show? No, half the time, honestly, no. We went to go see it in theaters. Oh, you went to the theater?

Oh my God, Brandy. Sorry, it's just so fun at this point. Yes, the gentleman's fantastic. I went on this whole thing about how Matthew McConaughey is just Matthew McConaughey, but Hugh Grant must have gotten the script and was like, oh my God, this is an amazing script. And then the guy from Sons of Anarchy is great in it as well. And then the guy who I thought was really good is Colin Farrell. Even though he's not in it a whole lot, he's amazing.

He's also not aging well. Right? Am I right or no? I guess. I don't know. What do you mean you don't know? I don't know. That's not what I took away from it.

What I took away from it was that his character was really, really good. Got it. Okay, so. I'm here for the looks. All right, yeah. I hear that. Benjamin Conahay is aging well. Yeah.

Farrell, not so much. Hugh Grant, also not so much. Not that he was, really. He'd bang any and all of those dudes if the opportunity arose. No, no, no. Yeah, okay. In this hypothetical world where all those dudes are banging you, we're also going to put you in the hypothetical world of you're not with Rye. You're single and still i wouldn't only how do you say charlie hunnam how do you say

his last name i never know i don't know either him he's number one for show then probably matthew mcconaughey and the other than like yeah but just to have like that notch in your belt like yeah i thought nah are you caught up on west world i am caught up on west world well actually i didn't i didn't watch i guess i didn't watch two nights ago you're killing me i'm caught up on Westworld? I am caught up on Westworld. Well, actually, I didn't watch. I guess I didn't watch two nights ago. You're killing me. I'm caught up on Little Fires. I'm loving Little Fires.

I'm like one behind on Westworld. I'm sorry, but dude, too hot to handle. It just grabbed me. It grabbed me by the dick, dude. Okay, here's my question about Westworld. So wait, okay, the last episode you saw, did you find out who the other pearls are? Yes.

Can we talk about this? Or are people going to freak that we're giving spoilers? I think we can. So we find out. Okay, let's just preface. If you haven't seen Westworld and you plan on watching it, maybe don't listen to the next five minutes. But for those that are watching it, I feel like they would appreciate us talking about it.

Okay. Okay, so you did find out who the pearls were. Yeah, it's all Dolores, yeah. Okay, so like, and I think you'll see more in this week's episode. I'm not going to ruin anything for you. But my question is if Dolores is in all of these other people, but it's not fully her, it's kind of like her and them together, like merged together because Charlotte Hale's over here having like a freak out and she kind of talks to her like it's not, she doesn't

talk to her like she's talking to herself you know what i mean she talks to her like she's some weird combo of charlotte hale and dolores right yeah i hear what you're saying but if that thing is really like if you're a robot and that thing's your who you are then like how does that bleed into it that's what i don't really get it's a lot about the show i don't get my whole thing is i just really want drone helicopter taxis that's just what i want they're super sick and the self-driving cars are super sick yeah that's coming very soon is it coming very soon that there's going to be a big computer that determines our fate like westworld i don't know speaking of a big computer that determines our fate like Westworld, I read a book recently that I think you'd like.

Tell me. It's called The Circle. Not like the Netflix series? Not like the Netflix series, but there is a movie that Emma Watson-Perminey was in with Tom Hanks that wasn't that great, but the book is phenomenal. Oh, so it's that movie. It's a book.

I did see that movie. The book is so good. Wait, who's it by? Dave Eggers. Yeah, so this is kind of what the synopsis is. The Circle is a 2013 dystopian novel written by American author Dave Eggers. The novel chronicles tech worker Mae Holland as she joins a powerful internet company. Her initially rewarding experience turns darker.

Okay, so it's like Apple, right? Which is kind of a funny loop back around. Fuck Apple. That's all I have to say right now. All right. So it's like Apple where it's like this company that is creating all this cool shit. And it's a really or Google, I guess. If you work there, you like work on the campus and everyone's vegan friendly.

And, you know, like they're all working on these amazing apps and programs and things. They're changing the world. But then you find out like what they're really trying to do. Closing the circle is like basically world domination and it is so good and also a little bit scary i'm telling you the circle dave egger's novel you'd love and then also shout out to alon gale because he's the one who told me to read it oh okay i'll give it a read i do think you should watch the movie though because i i do remember liking the movie a lot i'm gonna watch it now that i've i've read it but alon was like don't watch the movie the book's better i was like okay yeah but the thing is typically if you

read a book before you see the film or show it's the film or show is not as good because the books are always better yeah no i know so i feel like the way to go is to watch it and then read it yeah all right do you have anything else no all. I'm really sorry that you're having a bad day. I'm so mad at Apple. I'm even more mad that I can't just walk into the store right now and just show them

and speak to a real person. Yeah. Okay. Do you want to call Ariel? Yeah. I need her to cheer me up. The host of Love Island and also

she's on a bunch of commercials. I always find it funny when I'm like watching TV. I'm like, oh, there's Arielle in like a Ford commercial, you know? Totally. Let's do this. Let's take a quick break. When we come back, we'll call up Arielle Vandenberg.

Okay. Okay. Hey, Wells. Yo. You know, I know you love Tish the Dish. Love her. There's a lot of great things the woman gave me. Great skin.

A great brain. I get thinner as I age. It's great. But you know what else gets thinner as I age but it's not great? What? My hair. My really thin hair. During this time, I'm trying to really do some self-care and better myself and I think it's time to start taking some hair

The drinking because I fall down a lot and I hurt myself. That's not true. That's a joke. But I have been working out a whole bunch.

And I built that golf simulator in my garage. So actually my back's been hurting a lot because I'm hitting so many golf balls. And then enter the Theragun. Dude, Sarah grabs that thing and then just goes to work on my back and it's the greatest thing in the world oh you're lucky you have sarah there but i will say the thing i like about the theragun is that it's also easy to use when you're home alone because you know i'm alone all the time i pulled something in my like pecs or my, and like in my rotator cuff and my shoulder, like all this across my chest has been so tight and I have been using my Theragun on it the past couple of days and it has helped so freaking much.

Are you losing it? Are you thriving? What's going on? Oh, God. I hate to be this person, but, like, I'm kind of thriving. Me too. Same. Right?

Yeah. And the thing is, is we're obviously, I know you guys have probably talked to other people about this, Right? Yeah. you know, stuff like this differently. And I feel like for me, I'm like just trying to live my best life because I work from home. I don't know how to cook. So I'm learning how to cook. And I feel like I'm becoming a better fiance. I don't know. I'm just like trying to make the most out of a shitty situation. And, you know, there's good ups and downs and highs and lows, but you got it. We're all doing the same thing. You, but we're all doing the same thing. You know, we're all in the same position. It's weird.

I also woke up today and I was so grateful for my house that I live in because I'm like, we have space. I can go to a different room than my fiance and I can just like have, I'm just so grateful to be where I am. Like, I can't imagine being in like New York or something like that and like cooped up I don't know on top of each other oh god then I would probably not be okay I wanted to ask you because I mean you're a fantastic actress and comedic actress but I feel like your big come up was vine no yeah definitely she's like don't

label me as a viner that's how that's how like i had first heard about you was you like started so high you're you were like great actress so funny yeah well viner shit man i was a waiter at first you know you gotta start somewhere but that's how I found out about you was Vine. And then Vine went away, which must have sucked for you. But now I feel like Vine has come back into its own. Like there's a new iteration and it's called TikTok. Are you on TikTok? How are you?

Are you able to thrive once again on TikTok? I am so on TikTok. My middle name is TikTok. I like, I legit am on there all day, every day. I'm obsessed. And it's just so fun because it's something new to, at first I hated it. I was like, this is bullshit because I just had to learn and navigate a new app and I hated it. But then once I got the hang of it, I was like, oh, this is so fun. And it's, I don't know, it feels, it feels less, uh it feels less pressure than like Instagram. Like you can just like not have makeup on and be like, I can post this.

Who cares? I don't have any followers. Yeah, I definitely am into TikTok. I'm trying to do it. I'm trying to get better. It's hard. It's hard. I got to be honest with you.

What I've been doing, too, is, you know, I edit my own videos and do everything on my own for Instagram. I just take those videos and I repurpose them onto TikTok. And I just like, I wait a couple months and I'm like, oh, I like no one's seen this in a while. So I just posted on TikTok because it's a whole new audience of 13 year olds that I need to know who I am. Oh man, everybody is 13 on TikTok, aren't they? Yeah, I know. Except Tyler Cameron. oh man everybody is 13 on tiktok aren't they i know except tyler cameron yes and your fiance matt he also came i mean he's also an actor and a comedian but he also came i feel like from the like the youtube and vine world is it easy easier because now you guys are together that you can like collaborate a lot more or is there like can you do your fucking thing i'll do my fucking thing him and i are weirdly just really good at working together and being on the same page.

I'm just so fortunate to be able to still at the end of the day, be so happy to go to bed with this person. You know what I mean? Like sometimes you're like, I want to wring your neck. Like I don't have that with him. We just work together. We live together. We love each other. And it's so amazing. It's awesome. You guys are like super similar. Very. He is the boy me and therefore I am the girl him. Yeah, like, okay.

So I was thinking about the other day because just for like, so everyone knows, Sarah and I are good friends with Ariel Matt and we get to hang out every once in a while. Okay, so here's the thing. They're both really funny. They're really talented actors. They're both very attractive.

They're both in really good, like, annoyingly good shape. They're both blonde. And they both are, but more importantly, think they are the greatest singer ever. I am the greatest singer ever. I know. I want to know who thinks they're a better singer because like you'll do like Whitney Houston runs where I'm like, damn, Ariel, that's pretty good.

And then Matt comes in with all his emo shit. I'm like, that's good too. Okay. By the way, just wait in a couple of days. Matt is coming out with the best emo video. Okay, it's coming out soon. He just edited that. But side note, he knows how to sing.

Like he can sing. I can joke and I can mimic. And that is about it. Yeah, everyone needs to out there needs to. I mean, I have a feeling everyone that listens to our podcast is following you guys. But not where do they follow you on social medias well i'm at ariel was matt supposed to be in this call no no but like i like matt and i want to talk about him so i would love to talk about him but in my mind because him and i just came out with a podcast yeah um called riled up and it just aired and so we've been doing or just uh aired released released we just released a new podcast and we've been doing a lot together yeah

and i know i've been talking to you about doing this podcast for a while so i assumed that it was just me by myself and then anyways okay um so yeah he's matt cutchell, at Matt Cutchell, and I'm at Arielle. And you should listen to our podcast. It's called Riled Up with Arielle and Matt. Okay, so let's get to the meat of what the show is, our favorite things. What are you in love with right now? What are you binging? What are you listening to? Give us some things to bide our time through this quarantine. I just started watching the show dave oh that's little dicky it is so good i'm not even kidding you i i was kind of hesitant because

he's so specific you know he's little dicky he's a rapper and whatever i was like what's the show gonna be this show is cast perfectly. It's hilarious. The producer on it is Kevin Hart and someone else that you're like, yeah, no brainer. It's going to be a good one. I've been watching that and it's incredible. You guys should seriously watch it. Is it loosely based on like Lil Dicky's life? What's the premise of it? Yeah.

So it is and it? Yeah. So it, it, it isn't, it isn't, it's obviously like a heightened reality, but it's not at all a reality show. You know, he's just like with his girlfriend and he has all these, like, I think, um, he, he basically is with all these rappers and he's just like this nerdy white guy, but they realize that he can rap. And so they basically just try and make him the biggest thing. And it's just following him. I guess it is based on reality. All right, quick PSA for those of you out there who rent.

It's on fx okay oh scooter braun produced it oh random wait speaking of um amazing shows brandy last night we watched um unorthodoxed and it's amazing have you seen Unorthodox, Ariel? No. It's so good. I watched the making of it. That's also on Netflix. Have you seen that?

Did you see the behind the scenes of how they made it? No, I got to watch that. I got to watch that. I guess it's a memoir about a girl who is married in Williamsburg in an Orthodox, like Hasidic Jewish community. Jewish community. in an Orthodox, like, Hasidic Jewish community. And all about her basically trying to escape that community and them not wanting her to. And it's crazy.

And you should watch it. And that girl is such a freaking great actress. I loved her. Yeah. I wish I could get into Ozark. Someone told me that I would be scared, and now I just can't watch it. I don't like scary stuff.

What? It's not scary. I mean, there's blood and stuff. Not that bad. A lot of people will get shot in the head in that movie, in that show. Spoiler alert. It's all right. I mean, it's Jason Bateman laundering money for like a Mexican cartel in the Ozarks in Missouri. Yeah, it's great.

It's fantastic. Wait, have you seen Dead to Me? Yes. And are they coming out with season two? Yes. That's what I was going to say. I'm so freaking excited because quarantine is giving me life with another season of Dead to Me because I only care about that in the morning show.

I haven't seen the morning show yet. Oh, you haven't? I know. I need to do that. It's so good. I've heard that. A lot of people have said, I don't like that show. I don't really feel like it's true.

It doesn't feel true. And I'm like, what are you saying? That shit happens all the time in this industry. And I think the reason why I liked it so much is because I am in this industry. And I've heard stories like that. I've seen with my eyes shit go down where you're like, oh, God, like the industry is so weird. And so when you watch it, you're like, oh, no, this is real. Like it happened.

So I think anyone who's in the industry really liked it. And it makes more sense to people that are in the industry, I think. Yeah. And I think you'll enjoy it for sure. Yeah. I was thinking last night that that's the show I need to start next. Franisten is my hero. I have been loving Justin Bieber's new album.

Mm-hmm. Love. By the way, Arielle is like the biggest freaking Justin Bieber fan you've ever met. Really? Yeah. It's a lot of pictures of her dressing up like justin bieber oh wow yeah we could talk about my favorite thing justin bieber for a minute um i uh i've been loving his album so i've been listening to that on repeat and i

feel like you know when you watch oh my god wait i just realized my new favorite thing. Sorry. I just got so happy. Bieber's YouTube series? Bieber's YouTube series. No, but that is. But no, guys, Guardians of the Galaxy. I'm so late. What? You guys, are you fucking kidding me? People were hiding Guardians of the Galaxy from me. I just watched the first one two nights ago. What do you mean hiding? I can't stop thinking about it oh you're in for a treat because there's two more you get to watch i know guys i even went

as far as like like i'm such a nerd i obviously james gunn who um directed it i know who he is i think he's incredible whatever and i'm an actress and i'm like you know i'm a fan of his and then i saw this and i was like i have to dm him and like so psycho so i dm him and i go i'm so late to the game and i'm so sorry but guardians of the galaxy is my new favorite movie and he saw and just sent me praise hands and i was like yes like so happy guys i didn't know that movie was good i mean i i heard it was like fun to watch whatever and it's i want to watch it again i'm so happy and so matt and i are gonna watch the second one on friday yeah because we have a date night on fr to watch Guardians of the Galaxy 2, and I can't wait. Cute.

And then you get to go down the long, deep rabbit hole of all the Marvel movies because they come together and like. But why have like I felt that most of those movies don't draw me in like a guardians of the galaxy what is the difference because i've never been like oh i'm so sucked into this movie when it comes to other marvel movies i think the guardians is the best if you like comedy it's the funniest of all of them for sure well why because i genuinely only watch comedy like i don't ever put on a sad movie just because like i'm like oh i heard this is good. I'm going to watch Lincoln. I'm like, no thanks. I heard this will make me depressed for two

weeks. Let's watch it. Let's get into it. And the reason why I even was interested in watching the movie is because I love the ride at Disneyland. And I was like, this is so good. I went backwards. I'm like, the movie must be good if the ride is good.

I do love the ride. And it's so much better than what was it? Was it the Haunted Hotel before that? It's the same thing. Tower of Terror. Tower of Terror, that's right. But then they just put like, freaking, we want the ball. And then you drop and it's like, yes!

It's so much better. And I've been on Tower of Terror in my whole life because I'm too scared. But because there was fun music to this one, I'm like, I can do this because it's not haunted. That's insane. So my sister, they shut down all of Disneyland for her 16th birthday. And we got to go and just ride all the rides. We rode Tower of Terror so many times. I also just remembered who your sister was just now, so sorry.

You're like, how did your sister know? No, I honestly, in my mind, was like, who is this bitch? And I was like, oh, wait, got you. Yeah, it was like during Hannah Montana time, so she had a lot of leverage, lots of leverage. But, man, we rode Tower of Terror just back to back until we like wanted to barf it was great yes it's the best ride i've ever i've and i don't i'm not a huge uh

like roller coaster person and disneyland recently i've been like okay just trying all the rides i've never gone on like the incredicoaster genius Genius. Genius. I'm like, I went upside down and that's it. I didn't die. It was great. You know who you need to go to Disneyland with is Sarah because she's like the biggest Disney nerd. She knows so much or she'll be like, you'll be on Pirates of the Caribbean

because I don't know if you know this, there's all these hidden Disney things. I am Sarah. I'm telling you like her and I will be in competition caribbean because i don't know if you know this there's all these hidden disney things i am sarah i'm telling you like her and i will be in competition on how much we know because i found a secret mickey in the bathroom that you know seen before not even the tour i went on a tour guide because like i a friend of mine bought like a tour guide person yeah we got to go and it's like the coolest thing ever and you get to go you know backstage and shit anyways um i went into the bathroom and i came out and i go i just saw a secret mickey in there and they're like there's no secret mickey in the bathroom and i was like come with me and i showed them like wait what the hell like i've never even seen that one and i was

like got him nailed it i want want to circle back to Justin Bieber. Have you ever met him? Because they say never meet your idols, your heroes. Have you ever met him? I have met him. How was it? It was everything I ever dreamed of. Yeah? So I put myself in these situations.

We weirdly have a lot of mutual friends, and he probably is like, why are you friends with that girl? She's my stalker, but they know I'm not, you know, like I, I genuinely like,

like his music. And I, I just like bounce around and think he's cute and whatever. I don't, I'm not like trying to wear his skin. You know, I just, I just want to like,

I just, I just like him. And it's fun to have like a crush on like a pop star. Right. So, um, but I, I invited his friend somewhere and they showed up together and I was like, ah, like you brought him like, that's your guest. And that was great. I mean, he was really nice. You know, it wasn't like a double date or anything. It was like, it wasn't supposed to be weird. Like it was, I've had a boyfriend. He was like with someone, like, it wasn't like a double date or anything it was like it wasn't supposed to be weird like it was i had a boyfriend he was like with someone like it wasn't like the way i'm making it seem

yeah well just wanted to get there name one justin bieber song um do not play stupid right now i i hold on i can get one of these. Baby. Nice. That's the one, right? That was his first song ever. Hey, you didn't say, I need this most recent. I celebrated.

What song off that record is your favorite who is he i had something in my heart tell me he's not someone just passing by dude it sucks we lost bill withers and john prine in like the same week two days i know that song is so good i freaking love it it like then if you really listen to the words it's just such a cool story. You're like, what's going on? Like, well, you know, he's like walking with this chick and like someone like another guy like nods his head at you. And he's like, who is he?

I love it. It's so good. One of my favorite things. I love it. Brandy, you got any more questions? No, but I definitely think we need to do like a group Disneyland trip when this is all over. Yeah. Yeah.

Does Miley still have the Disney hookup or? I'm pretty sure that she, that you're, so many years of being a slave to the mouse gets you like lifelong privileges at Disneyland. So I'm going to go with yes. I know because Sarah is no longer employed by ABC. So, I mean, I don't know how long like that works. That kind of stuff is just like, hey, I was a part of the fam. Yeah.

Yeah. Slave to the mouse. Who's a slave to the mouse. But you know who definitely still has some good contacts is Tish the Dish. Okay, perfect. We can get in. All right. Don't worry.

Yeah, he can just go, but like. I can't even do the roll thing he was doing. I can't even do it. Can't do it. RyRy does that. I have zero clue

how that's even possible. He can go all the way down. He could touch his nose to the ground. And then come back up. And then come and do 50 of them. Yeah, I know. Nope.
