Starting point is 00:01:21 All right. I got my shoes tied tight. I got a pot in sight. I got a water bottle full of agua because it's the only thing I can drink because of my being allergic to everything. So says the food sensitivity test, which I must say, guys, a lot of people hit me up being like, do not believe food sensitivity tests. They're bullshit. Eat whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:01:47 Drink whatever you want. It's all total bullshit and hocus pocus. To that I say, is that true? Or is that what you have been telling yourself because you got a similar like reading and you were like, you know what? Fuck it. I'm pushing through. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Gonna live with the diarrhea because it's worth it. Because cheese is worth it. Cheese is worth diarrhea. It's true. And so is a night out drinking beer. And sometimes it's worth it. Bread is worth diarrhea. Damn it. It's true. It's fucked up that God would do that to us. You know, he would make something so amazing like beer or bread or cheese and then say, know what that's gonna give you diarrhea though and then you have to make a life decision do you want to have diarrhea or do you want happiness do you want happiness now or later you decide i've made god like a like almost like an evil Disney villain.
Starting point is 00:02:51 We die. We go to the pearly gates. Welcome. Welcome to heaven. You must make a decision, cheese, now or diarrhea later. cheese now or diarrhea later. In life, you decided to choose cheese, which means you failed my first test. And now you burn in eternity. That's all hell is, just a bunch of people who were like, fuck it, I'm drinking beer, eating cheese. They're all down there burning the hell, being like, you know what? It's hot, but
Starting point is 00:03:26 it probably was worth it. What up, YFTers? Your boy. So Brandy's in, I think she's in Argentina right now. She just posted a video of her like performing in a very green suit. I don't know, guys, it wasn't my favorite suit I've seen her wear, but you know what? She's killing it. It was diamond status content because there was thousands of people in the audience. It was bonkers. And so I'm so happy for her. I'm so proud of her. So that means she's not going to be on the show today, which is okay.
Starting point is 00:03:52 I was talking to Sarah about it because Sarah's in Berlin. So normally Sarah would fill in in this situation. And if that doesn't work, usually I go get Derek and all that kind of stuff. And I thought, you know what? I was talking to Sarah about this. I was like, you know, I want to go see it. I want to see if I can do the show by myself. Can I just sit here and talk for 45 minutes and be somewhat entertaining to you? Or do I need someone there talking back to me?
Starting point is 00:04:13 And I think I can do it because I used to do four hours every day as a morning show host. I didn't really have anyone to go back and forth with. Actually, that's not true. I had Higgins, my traffic guy. And then I always had interns come in. But anyways, I feel like I can do it. And if I can't, then this episode is going to suck. If not, maybe this episode's great. Who knows? Maybe it's so good that like, uh, I just go do another podcast where I just rant for 45 minutes and you guys listen to that. Maybe not. I don't know. But here we are. My lips are chapped like a mofo. And there's nothing I can do about
Starting point is 00:04:42 it really, because I think chapstick's bullshit. I don't think it really heals you. I think it just protects you for about 25 minutes until you've licked it off or you've eaten something and then the chapstick goes away. And then the giant cavern of scar tissue on the lip opens back up, expose the elements, and you just got to deal with it. So I got chat lips, chat lips, chat lips. So here we go. Let's do a show where I just talked to you guys for 45 minutes. Oh, I've got an idea too. I went on Instagram and I asked you guys to send me DMs of your favorite things. So all the YFTers over there at YFT podcast on Instagram have been sending me DMs
Starting point is 00:05:24 saying what their favorite thing was. And I explicitly said, hey, use voice notes so I can put your voice on the show. And literally nobody did it. They just wrote it out. And that's all well and good. But like if I want to play your voice on the podcast, I can't imitate everyone's voice. Because then everyone's just going to sound like erotic grandpa. imitate everyone's voice because then everyone's just going to sound like erotic grandpa. So then I had to go make another video being like, hey guys, voice notes plus. So I'm getting some more.
Starting point is 00:05:50 So I think later on in the show, maybe we'll close out with your guys' favorite things. We've been wanting to do this for a while, but I'm lazy and I'm the one who produces this whole thing. And usually after Brandy and I are done, we've got like an hour of pod and I can just be like, I don't need to go get a bunch of audio from other people. But today, yeah boy, I'll by myself. So you guys will serve as Brandy today. Okay. I feel like we should still play the sound effect.
Starting point is 00:06:19 It's weird because like now this is, it's kind of a part of the show now. It's almost like my theme song. Ding-a-ling-a-ling. All right, we should start the show. Is it you or me? Oh, it's me. Bros and hoes, you're listening to Your Favorite Thing Podcast with Wells. Ah!
Starting point is 00:06:40 And you guys, because y'all are going to be on the show a little bit later. So, bro, I mean, we're just going to start with Bachelor because we watched the finale, but we didn't watch the live show because we had it sent over to us earlier. So we didn't see what happens in the end. I didn't even watch it. I just saw that Susie and Clayton are together and what? What? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What? What is happening? Thought you dumped him and then he tried to dump you and then he tried to get you back and then you dumped him again and then now you're back together i'm confused i
Starting point is 00:07:26 thought sooth sooth what are you doing thought you're gonna be the bachelorette and now we've got two bachelorettes listen i defend bachelor nation always but they're seldom wrong i love gabby and i love rachel i think i love gabby more, but I do think Rachel's like ready to get engaged. Whereas I'm not sure if Gabby's just like kind of, kind of in it for like the bit, you know, she's like kind of just having fun, whatever. I think they're both deserving of being the bachelorette. Totally fine with that. Hated what they did with Caitlin and Brit when they made like the guy's vote. that was just not necessary. So now you're going to have two women dating a bunch of dudes.
Starting point is 00:08:11 So let me just break it down so I can understand. Cause I don't know if you know if this is right. I haven't talked to anyone from the show of like how this is all going to work. But what I assume is going to happen is that they're both going to be the bachelorette and there's going to be a bunch of guys, probably more than they've ever had before. And then they are all going to date both of them. There's going to be a guy who's going to going to date both of them there's going to be a guy who's going to get to date both of them and then they could fight with each other over one guy
Starting point is 00:08:30 sarah highland ring oh sarah's calling let's see if we let's put her on the show hi hi baby oh i'm sorry you're recording yeah you're on the show right now though so oh hello i have tears how are you doing why are you talking like anna delvey oh that wasn't my anna delvey oh what was it i i have no idea what that was oh anna delvey is like why are you so basic oh why are you the money oh why are you the money i can pay i can pay it's a problem with the bank my father just forgot the transfer i can pay um how was your day my day was good it was long but it was good i've been up since 3 a.m and it is now 6 45 and i have an hour drive back to my hotel and then i have a table read at 8 30 two table reads back to back
Starting point is 00:09:22 i was just talking about how i thought the new bachelorette's going to go what are your thoughts well so they've got gabby they've got rachel right but they're not going to like do the brit caitlin thing where the guys choose they're both going to be the bachelorette so in god so here's what i think they're going to do so i think they're going to have a bunch of guys date both of them right probably more guys than they've ever had before but then what's going to happen is there's going to be a guy that's going to be able to date both of them. And then what if they both like the one guy, then they're going to start fighting between themselves for one guy. And then it'll be the bachelor all over again. Yeah. I just don't understand why they always
Starting point is 00:09:58 do this with women. Why can't they have two bachelors, huh? Yeah. I don't know if i love it who knows they might be great i just don't want it to turn into a thing of where they are not getting what they deserve you know where it's like the guys like turn things on them yeah stuff i hope it is very much separated once they like pick the guys that they're interested in kind of stuff i hope that they like separate it but you know they're not going to do that because they love the drama i just think it is atrocious yeah i mean we already have a show where a bunch of guys will date a bunch of girls and then there's a bunch of drama and it's bachelor in paradise yeah yeah exactly so we have that already yeah so we just doing like a stripped down version of Bachelor in Paradise,
Starting point is 00:10:46 but in Agora Hills and then maybe other locales? Yeah, I don't know. I just want the best for Gabby and Rachel. That's all I want. That's all anybody wants. I got some fave things, bro. Okay, what do you got? I am a newfound fan of Venom.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Ding, ding, ding. Tom Hardy. Tom Hardy. I watched both of the Venoms back to back two days in a row. I really like those films. I think it's great. I love Venom. He's so sweet.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Big scary alien that loves eating brains, but like he's such a sweet scary alien that loves eating brains but like he's such a sweet scary alien that loves eating brains i like him a lot big puppy dog is he more bad than good or more good than bad i'd say he's more good than bad he's an anti-hero yeah he's so sweet i love venom i also watched the new scream what'd you think i liked it i. I did. You know, I enjoyed it. And they had some really cool, like the final scene really kind of like takes place in the final scene of the first Scream in the house and stuff. I liked it. I say if you got time to kill and you don't and you're like, I don't know what I want to watch, watch and you're like in the mood for
Starting point is 00:12:05 like that scary movie watch scream it's cute all right i also watched all of marvelous mrs mazel this is what i do i've just been working and watching tv so season three of mazel i think four four okay whatever the latest season was absolutely love it i just also really love the fast-paced nature of amy sherman paladino's writing as well as the actors they are so good we finally maybe spoiler alert kind of might get like a nice payoff for the will they won't they kind of stuff with lenny and midge and that's very satisfying it's wonderful okay love that love marvelousness is maysville season four oh i started the dropout last night brandy talked about that a couple episodes ago she loves it i watched the first episode didn't love it why not i thought it was kind of slow
Starting point is 00:13:04 and it was a little derivative of inventing Anna, and I thought inventing Anna was a little bit better. I see. Oh, you know what I have that I have not seen? But I have a Your Favorite Thing for Adam. For Adam who? Divine? For Adam Divine.
Starting point is 00:13:20 He loves the show Snowfall on FX and told me to give it a shot. I think there are like five seasons out, though, so I need to buckle down. A look into the early days of the crack cocaine epidemic in Los Angeles during the beginning of the 1980s. Snowfall on FX and Hulu. I'm into that. All right. Well, thanks for coming on the show.

Starting point is 00:16:36 Code YOURFAVORITETHING. Do it. The plan of doing the show by myself is quickly falling apart. I went from a show where it was just going to be me to I'm going to probably have the most people we've ever had doing the show by myself is quickly falling apart. I went from a show where it was just going to be me to, I'm going to probably have the most people we've ever had on the show to date on. So, yeah, I don't know. But yeah, so I mean, I guess closing out the Bachelor thing, I just hope it works. I understand Sarah's apprehension. I think they are the same as mine.
Starting point is 00:16:59 The show has already been on a rocky road in terms of public opinion about touchy subjects. And this just seems like a recipe for backlash. Maybe? I don't know. But it also seems like a recipe for drama. What about that life? What else? You got some fave things, bro? Bro. I finally watched Spider-Man No Way Home. Hot take. Hot take. Okay. Didn't love the first half of Spider-Man No Way Home. I know. And everyone's like, what are you talking about? And this is what happened. I watched it in two parts. I watched the first half. And by the way, this is a spoiler alert if you haven't seen it, but whatever, it's been out for a while. I'm watching it, and it's all the bad guys. He brings in all the bad guys from the other movies.
Starting point is 00:17:48 Doc Ock, Sandman, Green Goblin, Lizard Guy. Kind of wrangles them all together, and I'm like, hey, listen, guys. Not here for the bad guys. I'm here because I want to see Tom Holland and Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield do the Spider-Man meme where they're all pointing at each other. I want to see their parallel universe interglide. You know? Willem Dafoe, you're amazing.
Starting point is 00:18:11 But I'm not here for that. I'm here for Tobey Maguire. Tobey Maguire's my Spider-Man. That's what I need. The first half of it, I was like, ah, take, leave. But then finally, when all three Spider-Mans came in, I was like, okay, I get it. And then, yes, it's fantastic. And I want to say something that's going to be tough for a lot of like us millennials to hear.
Starting point is 00:18:28 But I believe it. And I believe it to be true. Tobey Maguire is my Spider-Man. Okay? Much like all you Gen Xers out there, Tom Holland is your Spider-Man. And for a lot of people who are kind of in between, maybe Andrew Garfield is your Spider-Man. But for me, I'm old enough that Tobey Maguire is my Spider-Man. The truth of the matter is that Michael Keaton is my Batman,
Starting point is 00:18:51 even though I'm a little too young for that. But Val Kilmer was kind of trash, and George Clooney was kind of trash. As much as I love Christian Bale, Michael Keaton was my Batman. Jack Nicklaus was my Joker. Tobey Maguire is my Spider-Man, guys. But what I learned in Spider-Man No Way Home is that Andrew Garfield is the best Spider-Man. He's not my Spider-Man, but he's the best one. He's the best actor. And I hate to say this because they're all three actors and it's like comparing Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden. Or, I don't know, for you younger folks out there, Harry, Zayn, Niall. You know?
Starting point is 00:19:27 It's tough. They're all great, but, you know, Harry is the best of them. Sorry. Sorry, Gigi. Harry's the best. You know? This is something that I had to come to terms with, is that, guys, Andrew Garfield is just such an amazing actor. Like there's this one scene where we're on the roof and all three Spider-Men are kind of like having this moment talking about loss. You know, Tom Holland is crying and you know, Toby Spider-Man is older and he's kind of been through it.
Starting point is 00:19:56 So he's kind of like holding that tear in his eye. You can tell that like he has evolved as a more mature Spider-Man. So he's come to terms with this pain. And then Andrew Garfield's scene, it's just scene steal bonanza. I will say this, Spider-Man No Way Home is great. And like what they're able to do
Starting point is 00:20:14 by bringing in all the different multiverses and everything, fantastic. I loved it. Go check it out. You know, if you watch the credits through, you know, they always have a little scene at the end of the credits. Marvel loves doing that.
Starting point is 00:20:26 It's like the modern day secret song. Do you guys remember CDs that had secret songs on them? That was one of my favorite things. Those are gone now. But now Marvel took them. And the last scene is Tom Hardy at a bar. And then all of a sudden disappears. And obviously like, okay, we're going to get more Venom.
Starting point is 00:20:42 Ipso facso. That's why Sarah's been watching a lot of Venom. Spider-Man No Way Home. Go check it out. Dude, I started watching this documentary today. It's called Bad Vegan. Have you guys heard of it? It's on Netflix and oh my God.
Starting point is 00:20:54 It's in the same vein of Tinder Swindler and The Puppet Master in that it's about a woman who gets like totally manipulated by some dude claiming crazy stuff like he's in the CIA and shit and he's in black ops. Here's the tag. After marrying a mysterious man who claimed he could make her dog immortal. Not a joke. That's real.
Starting point is 00:21:21 A celebrated vegan restaurateur finds her life veering off the rails. Bad vegan. So it's about this woman named Sarma who goes to culinary school, opens up a very successful vegan restaurant in Manhattan, and then gets duped by this doucher. And it's like, I've watched three shows now about women getting duped by douchers. And this is my thing, ladies. Stop.
Starting point is 00:21:59 If anyone says they can make your dog immortal, that person's got probs. They should probably go. Unless it's real and then send them to me immediately. I watched the first episode and it's crazy. Alec Baldwin's involved somehow, some way. He's having a rough couple months
Starting point is 00:22:13 to tell you that much, but it's amazing. Bad vegan, frame, fraud, fugitives. Oh, and the best thing is that they were on the lam. This woman and the guy were on the lam, like running,
Starting point is 00:22:24 running from the law. You know, the way that they get caught is from a credit card transaction in Tennessee because they went to Domino's. What's that vegan lifestyle at, bro? That's cheese. Bright pepperoni. Can't have that. And I should know because fucking allergy test.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Bad vegan, check it out. I started reading a book. Well well listening to a book whatever called the paris apartment and i will say this like i'm sure the book is fantastic but i really love the audiobook because there are multiple different narrators and it really does paint a picture but it's a really fun murder mystery whodunit novel you know it's like a million of those but it's a new york times bestseller the author's lucy foley and here's kind of a quick synopsis jess needs a fresh start she's broke and alone and she 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.
Starting point is 00:23:28 And surely, everything will look better from Paris. Only when she shows up, he's not there. The longer Ben stays missing, the more Jess starts to dig into her brother's situation. dig into her brother's situation. Jess may have come to Paris to escape her past, but it's starting to look like it's Ben's future in question. Everyone's a neighbor. Everyone's a suspect. And everyone knows something they're not selling. The Paris apartment. It's great. The reason why I like the Audible version of this is because every chapter is a different character kind of telling the story of what's happening through the prism of their reality. Really, really good.
Starting point is 00:24:13 I'm only probably halfway through it, so I'll give you like a full kind of rundown when I finish. But it's a New York Times bestseller, so, you know, it's probably pretty good. Paris apartment, check it out. Boom. You know what I was thinking about the other day? I was like, I'm glad that I don't have tattoos. If you've got tattoos, it's, it's probably pretty good. Paris apartment, check it out. Boom. You know, I was thinking about the other day, I was like, I'm glad that I don't have tattoos. And if you got tattoos, that's cool. Sierra's got a bunch of tattoos. But like when I go on Instagram and TikTok and stuff, there's a lot of people that have tattoos that kind of make fun of other people's tattoos. And I was thinking about it, like, I'm really happy that I don't have tattoos because
Starting point is 00:24:40 I wouldn't want other people with tattoos to make fun of my tattoos. And that's one of the reasons why I'm not getting tattoos is because I'm scared of people judging me for said tattoos. And I feel like that's not what you get in the tattoo game, to be judged. But it inevitably happens. You know, it used to be that if you had tattoos, that meant you were a bad guy, you were a bad dude. And now if you have tattoos, it just opens up a bunch of vegan IPA Somalis to judge your shit because they have a cooler beard. And I just don't need that in my life. And I was thinking about that the other day because I am an idiot. But it's such a weird thing. If you're a car guy, oh, yeah, I'm big into like old Broncos.
Starting point is 00:25:19 And then like people with old Broncos were like, your Bronco is a piece of shit. I thought you were supposed to be on my team. I thought you're supposed to be pumped about the fact that I have a Bronco. Not that because like my Bronco is as nice as your Bronco. I got to say I'm about done with TikTok. And when I say I'm about done, I don't, I mean, I'm not going to be because I'm addicted to it, but it's getting very repetitive and I need it to not be anymore. Okay? I need everyone to just make new shit. Because all I see is the same shit. If I hear that Tom's Diner cover from Suzanne Vega one more time.
Starting point is 00:25:53 I am sitting at the counter, at the counter, I am sitting. I am sitting at the counter because I'm having coffee. And it feels like a lot of red mint and coffee. And it feels like a little bit of coffee. If I hear that fucking song one more time, I'm going to break someone's phone. Also,
Starting point is 00:26:11 why is everyone so into that? It's a cover song. It's not even their song. They stole it from somebody. You guys realize that, right?
Starting point is 00:26:22 That's a cover. Go listen to the original. Susana Vega's great in that song. It's like so indicative of what TikTok is. It's just stealing shit from other people. And that song is like massively famous and it's stolen from someone else. Now, I will say those guys have good voices. Go write your own song, guy. Also, why does everyone promote it? Stop. Just please, TikTok, relax. Also, the, I actually cuss. What's your favorite cuss word? Fuck. Everyone, what? Why every time I open up TikTok, I got to watch that? I don't care that the iCarly girl said this one time in an interview in 1997. Why are we listening to this over and over again?
Starting point is 00:27:05 Guys, please. It's always the same stuff. And I'll admit, I was even a part of it. The butterfly in the sky one. Butterfly in the sky. I can go twice as high. Like you're floating around being like, what is life? But then everyone did it.
Starting point is 00:27:18 And it's like, ah. But then there are things that happen on TikTok where I'm like, God damn, this is good. Here is a good example of it. This is at Izzy Perry, I-Z-Z-Y-P-E-R-R-I. This is why I'm in TikTok. Let's take this song. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:35 Love it. Love that song. And perhaps make it. Uh-huh. What? What are you going to do? What are you going to do? 80s?
Starting point is 00:27:48 Yes, please Oh my god The best mode! Yep Uh-huh God, this is so good. God, this is so good. I can't wait for the na-na-nas. Oh!
Starting point is 00:28:28 Oh! Yes! Okay, and I know that what I just said was, like, that band's just copying another person's song, and, like, that's all TikTok is, is copying. And maybe it's because, and I realize that I just showed you a video of someone just copying someone else, but he changed it. One, he took it from, you know, it's an emo punk song and he turned it 80s.
Starting point is 00:28:54 So he changed it. And it's also not being shoved down my throat every three tech talks. And that's why I love it. And we all used to say it too, that the 80s had the worst music ever. And I'm now realizing that I was so wrong about that and the 80s have had amazing music amazing did we get bogged down with a lot of hair metal yeah we did but was there some other stuff like depeche mode and shit like that talking heads god damn all right here it is i'm making it worse because I'm playing the song that I said annoys me counter. And he feels it all. Okay. I mean, it is good. I think what annoys me is that the official video for the original has 1,455,000 views.
Starting point is 00:30:13 So, gee. Abram don't fix. Great song. I am sitting in the morning at the diner on the corner. I am... Dude, dude, dude. Anyways, I don't know why it annoys me, but it does. And this is where I live in the world now, guys. So TikTok annoys me. However, there. And this is where I live in the world now, guys. So TikTok annoys me.
Starting point is 00:30:46 However, there is something on TikTok that I absolutely love. Have you guys heard of the cart narc? So, okay, go follow the cart narc on TikTok and Instagram, whatever. So it's a guy that goes to shopping centers. And then when he sees someone not put their cart in like the cart receptacle, that just kind of like leaves it in a space and shit, he goes up to their car and puts like this like flag that says like, I'm lazy and don't return the shopping carts.
Starting point is 00:31:13 And inevitably everyone gets so angry because if you're a piece of shit enough to not have the common decency to put a cart back, then you are also the same type of piece of shit that will get mad at someone for calling you out for being a piece of shit because you are a piece of shit. You know, people don't know that you're a piece of shit, but you are a piece of shit if you can't do the thing, which is having common courtesy of putting your shit away because you're selfish. You're an only child who never had to share things, doesn't care about anybody else. And these people are so exposed for the trash human that they are.
Starting point is 00:31:47 And I love it so much. And they get so angry. They try to fight this guy. And this guy's fast. Every time someone tries to run at him to hurt him, he just starts running really fast. And he's like, you can't catch me. I'm too fast. And it's amazing how terrible the world is.
Starting point is 00:32:00 And that's where I am today. Ukraine, Corona, people that don't put their carts away. They're not all the same thing, but it's just, it's indicative of where we are in the world. And I'm scared of the future. And I don't know if I want to have kids because what world are we bringing them into? You know, this was fun doing this by myself. I really enjoyed it. But you know what?
Starting point is 00:32:19 The best part is yet to come. Let's hear from the YFTers out there. Some of your favorite things, huh? Let's open up the Insta. Let's listen from the yf tears out there some of your favorite things huh let's open up the insta let's listen to the voice notes if you could if you guys did it probably didn't here's some of your favorite things what's up wells and brandy what up it's ray from edmonton canada what's up fat i've been listening to the pod since it started thanks some of my favorite things have definitely been righteous gemstones on hbo or Crave if you're Canadian oh my gosh so hilarious the second season is just fantastic definitely recommend that one I just finished
Starting point is 00:32:54 Marvelous Mrs. Maisel the third season I don't know I haven't heard you talk about it but I'm sure Sarah would absolutely love that show one song that's always kind of stood out to me, it's a little bit older, but it's called Lost On You by LP. They are such an incredible songwriter, musician, singer, just like never fails to really get the toast happen. Let's raise a glass or two To all the things I've lost on you toast happen. And finally, the book that I can't get enough of is Yearbook by Seth Rogen.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Just a bunch of stories about him growing up. And, you know, you can really imagine it being read in his voice, that little chuckle. And yeah, definitely one of my favorite things, as always, Seth Rogen. Love you guys. Bye. Love that one, Ray. You touched on a bunch of things that I dig on. Righteous Gemstones is freaking amazing. Danny McBride, obviously I'm a big Adam Devine fan
Starting point is 00:34:15 considering Sarah's working with him right now. Yeah, season two is fantastic. I haven't talked about it much because we talked about season one a lot, but yeah, season two, I think is actually even better than season one. When it comes to Maisel, you're right. That is much more of Sarah thing, even though I am a huge fan of that show, but her being from New York and New York kind of being a supporting character on that show lends to Sarah's love of it a little bit more than me. However, I love the stand-up
Starting point is 00:34:46 comedy aspect of it, and Rachel Brosnahan is an amazing actress, like just one of the best. LP, I love LP. I actually have interviewed her a bunch of times back in my old radio days. She was the coolest. Been to a million of her shows. Oh, Seth Rogen. I mean, come on. You can't go wrong with Seth Rogen. Hi, Wells and Brandy. My name is Cara. I'm from Hudson, New Hampshire. I just wanted to tell you a couple of my favorite things this week.
Starting point is 00:35:14 One of them is the Netflix series Pieces of Her. I don't know if you guys have really touched on that yet, but it's a really, really, really great Netflix show. If you get a chance you should give it a watch okay and another one of my favorite things which you could probably start a whole different podcast on is the book no more verity by colleen hoover i'm not sure brandy's read it yet um she hasn't mentioned it which kind of shocks me but if either of you have not read it it's not a chick flicky book it's very suspense and mystery and it even leaves you in suspense which actually kind of bothers me which is one of my least favorite things because i need to know the truth what really happened
Starting point is 00:35:56 thank you guys love the show bye we all must know the truth oddly enough the culling hoover thing we've talked about before and i do believe that there is a book that she named one of the characters wells after seeing my dipshit ass on paradise and then we've connected weirdly because we're both huge avid brothers fans and we were both at the avids at the beach and like the dominican republic a couple years ago so i love kathleen hoover and i also do love her writing as well. So I will check that out. Hey, Wills and Brandy.
Starting point is 00:36:29 What up? Rachel from Reno, Nevada. What's up, Rachel? Same thing from last night, Supermarket Stakeout. Great show on Discovery+. Better than guys' grocery games, in my opinion. It just has so many weirdos. They're just super weird.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Lee's fave thing from last week was being so emotional over it. Not about it um least fave thing from last week was being so emotional uh over it not about it um my fave song at the moment is face to face by rule wells uh okay I can't seem to say what's on my brain. But I wonder, I wonder if you would feel the same. If one day we'd meet face to face. Rachel's not done. She sent some more. So here we go.
Starting point is 00:37:28 By the way, I gave Rachel crap because she sent me like all the, she just DM me and I was like, I need a voice note. And she's like, I'm on the toilet right now. And I was like, pinch it off. Also, like another faith thing, if you feel like playing more is hobo butt. if you feel like playing more, is a hobo butt. Last week I was just driving, doing errands, and this hobo, like, crosses the street in front of me and no joke, like, just has his whole butt, his whole butt out.
Starting point is 00:37:57 And my boyfriend said maybe he had, like, a wet fart and was, like, trying to dry it or something. But, yeah, whole butt. There's a lot of good hobo butts here in Reno. It's like my second one, I think. Here's a question. Is hobo, are we allowed to use that word or is that not PC? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:38:16 But whole hobo butt is the name of my next band. Also, Wells, just so you know, I voice noted that first one while still on the toilet. Oh, what? Pinched it off. Thank you, Rachel. Hi, Wells. Doing a voice note. Ding, ding.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Your favorite thing. My name is Macy and I'm from South Florida. I just finished season two of Euphoria. So that is my favorite thing this week. It was fantastic. Let us know. Did you watch it? It's kind of crazy, trippy.
Starting point is 00:38:45 What do you think? There was a lot of hype around it. What do you think? Do you think that there was needed to be hype? So yeah, let me know. Ding, ding. Favorite thing, favorite pod. Listen, I get that everyone loves Euphoria and I'm all for it. I know it's an amazing show. I know the actors on it are ridiculously talented. Obviously, Zendaya is fantastic. I watched like the first episode of the first season, and I just as a 37-year-old man could not relate to what these kids were doing considering that I thought I was a bad kid in high school.
Starting point is 00:39:17 I smoked weed. I skipped class. I drank alcohol. I did sex stuff because I'm cool. And I'm watching this being like, there's like a 12-year-old that's like a heroin dealer. This can't be real. I did sex stuff because I'm cool. And I'm watching this being like these, there's like a 12 year old that's like a heroin dealer. This can't be real.
Starting point is 00:39:31 The other thing that is the reason why I can't watch it, and maybe this is more of a me issue, but there are a bunch of high school kids doing a lot of sex stuff. And that makes me feel uncomfortable. I know they're not that age, but I'm watching it and I feel like a creep. So I don't watch it, but I know everyone loves it. And then everyone's doing that on TikTok.
Starting point is 00:39:51 You slept with Jewel? Who's Jewel? Shut up. I can't. But I know everyone loves it. So I'm in the wrong there. But also a lot of sex for kids. Kind of weird.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Hello, Walsh. I'm Brandy. This is Giselle from Puerto Rico. Hello, Giselle from Puerto Rico. My favorite thing right now is the Adam Project. Thank you for the recommendation, Wills. Oh, the Adam Project. I love the movie.
Starting point is 00:40:14 And my other favorite thing is that it's coming up, the Time Traveler Wife show that is coming on HBO Max. Oh, cool. I read the book. I was obsessed. I saw the movie that it came up, but I'm looking forward to see the show with the new cast. So I'm looking forward to that.
Starting point is 00:40:37 That is my favorite thing right now. Bye. My favorite thing is your accent, Giselle. You could have read the phone book to me, and I'd be like, yeah, that's one of my favorite things too. How you doing, Wows? Good. Jay from New York. What's up, dude?
Starting point is 00:40:51 And my favorite thing is The Last Kingdom on Netflix. Oh, yeah. Amazing series. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Amazing. I think we talked about that a couple weeks ago. Here's the tag. As Alfred the Great defends his kingdom from
Starting point is 00:41:06 the norse invaders utrid born a saxon but raised by vikings seeks to claim his ancestral birthright the last kingdom england is born yeah that's pretty dope also i didn't know guys listen to the show so it makes me feel good just in my heart. Hi, it's Amanda from Wisconsin. Hi, Amanda from Wisconsin. Some of my favorite things are, I don't know, I really like when my body just healthily digests gluten and yeast and beer and dairy and broccoli and deli meat. I just love how well I can eat those things and go on with my day. I just feel so lucky. Oh.
Starting point is 00:41:52 Well, I am from Wisconsin, so I guess I couldn't live here if I couldn't eat those things. But anyway, I love you both. Ah, let me get you a ding for that. Hope it's nice. Ah, let me get you a ding for that. Hope it's nice. Is it lonely in your ivory tower of happiness and gluttony of delicious foods and meats and cheeses? Because I can't live there.
Starting point is 00:42:12 I'm a mere peasant at the bottom of your great precipice looking up and saying, please give me cheese, deli meats, ales, anything, mom. Arms for the poor. I can only eat chicken breast, drink water. Must I start drinking ciders now? Am I going to turn to one of those people that I'm like at the bar being like, let me get a cider. And then everyone looks at you being like, oh, dude, you don't like that.
Starting point is 00:42:41 You don't. Stop pretending you do. Anyways, thanks for that thanks that Amanda I appreciate you hey Wells and Brandi what a Shannon from Massachusetts I have a least favorite thing for you guys so I work in a urban middle school and today I had a behavior intervention group of seven 13 year old boys and foolishly I packed a banana for lunch so my least favorite thingly, I packed a banana for lunch. So my least favorite thing was having to eat a banana in a room full of 13-year-old boys.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Yeah. Unding. Unding. Listen, I'm not homophobic, okay? I'm not. Do I not eat bananas because it does look like you're doing a blowy on Big Bird? Yes, that's one of them. But the other reason why it does keep me heartburn. And I know I'm not the only one here because it happens to my sister as well. Not a big banana guy. But here's the thing. I will roll the dice on my sexuality for a push pop. You can think whatever you want of me because your boy will go in on a push pop. Those are good. And a popsicle.
Starting point is 00:43:46 And a corn dog, actually. Yeah, any kind of meats and things on sticks, I will enjoy. Except for bananas. No, thank you. My favorite thing is my friend's new clothing line. If you could follow her at Shop Olive Co., we'd really appreciate it. Oh, not an ad. Probably an ad. But you know what?
Starting point is 00:44:02 All right, we'll give it to you. Hi, Wells and Brandy. This is Nicole, and I am from Grapevine, Texas. And this week, my favorite thing is Apple Pay. I went on a walk with my son down the Grapevine Main Street, and I did not have my purse with me. And, of course, I ended up wandering into some stores. And they all took Apple Pay, which was really exciting. And my husband was shocked when I came back with shopping bags,
Starting point is 00:44:25 knowing I didn't have a purse. So my favorite thing is Apple Pay. Well, I can one-up you there. I don't know if you have the watch, the Apple Watch, but if you have the Apple Watch that has like the red dial, which means you can go out into the world and you'll still get cellular service, like it's not daisy-chained to your phone,
Starting point is 00:44:41 this is the hack. And it's weird because I'm buying Apple products to get away from Apple products, but it's true. Because I can go out into the world without my phone, just with my Apple Watch. If someone calls me, I can take the call on my watch, but I can't look at like Instagram or TikTok or Twitter on my Apple Watch, but I can like look at directions and stuff. And then when I go into stores, I can use Apple Pay on my watch, boom, buy stuff. And I get to kind of like unplug a little bit. I do this all the time, actually. I just wish my Apple Watch could also have like my insurance information and my driver's license so that I could just leave the house with nothing in my
Starting point is 00:45:19 pockets. Because that's what I really want. I want to get to a place where I don't have to put things in my pockets anymore. But I love that. Hi, Wills. This is Dominique from Youngstown, Ohio. Youngstown! I have a book recommendation for you that I got after reading The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. Ooh, I love that one. So it is called A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab.
Starting point is 00:45:42 Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab. And it's kind of similar to Addie LaRue in that there's kind of some magic and some mystery and kind of alternate worlds. Very interesting. Hope to hear it in your voiceover voice. So good luck this week. As a young Antari magician, Kel is one of the last magicians with the rare ability to So good luck this week. the Maresh Empire, as an ambassador traveling between worlds to deliver messages, letters of importance, and other such news. However, Kel has a secret life as a smuggler, servicing people willing to pay for even the smallest glimpses of magic. It's a risky pastime with dangerous consequences.
Starting point is 00:46:47 consequences. After a smuggling job goes wrong, Kel escapes to Grey London, where he finds Delilah Bard, a young thief looking for a taste of adventure and a chance at something more. Delilah first saves Kel, then captures him, talks him into going with him in a world with magic. It's of course unavoidable that things go horribly wrong along the way. The Darker Shade of Magic. That sounds dope. Gonna read that. Thank you, Dominique. Hi, Wells and Brandy.

Starting point is 00:47:46 Colorado. Some of my favorite things. One, there's a show it just has one season. It's called Ugliest House in America, I think. Anyway, they go through like all the different regions of the U.S. and then they pick the ugliest house from each region
Starting point is 00:48:02 and then they all go up against each other and then the winner gets like a hundred thousand dollars and help with renovations which actually doesn't seem like that much but anyway oh my god these houses are insane you have to see it it's hilarious uh the host is donna from parks and rec so it's great. Also, another one of my favorite things is Costco rotisserie chicken. It's a really good deal. And it's a whole chicken that can feed like a crowd. And I just don't think it gets enough hype because it's such a good deal. Okay. I love you guys. Bye. Dude, a roti chicken, the best. I'm with you right there. Also, I don't know if like what your
Starting point is 00:48:43 chicken salad games like. I'm talking about chicken salad, Also, I don't know what your chicken salad game's like. I'm talking about chicken salad with mayonnaise and celery. That type of chicken salad, not like a salad with chicken on it. That's one of my favorite things. I'll get a roadie. I'll make a chicken salad with that, and then I'll put it in a bowl, and then I will eat it that day because your boy's fat. But I can eat that, I think, with my dietary restrictions.
Starting point is 00:49:02 By the way, Ugliest House in America, you can watch it on Hulu. So there you go. Didn't say where it was from. Hello. My name is Wendy. Hey, Wendy. Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Milwaukee. Well, it's outside of Milwaukee, Oak Creek, Wisconsin. I am... Oak Creek! Sorry, Wendy. I think you said you're from Oak Creek,
Starting point is 00:49:21 Wisconsin. And in my mind, I feel like there was one day that the creek, like, broke through the dam. And someone from Wisconsin was like, Oak Creek. And then that's how they named your town. I could be a jerk about that. Sorry about that. Sending you this, telling you that my most favorite thing right now is watching the Tournament of Champion competition on the Food Network with Guy Fieri. Fieri? Fieri. Fieri. Fieri. What is Network with Guy Fieri. Fieri?
Starting point is 00:49:46 Fieri. Fieri. Fieri. What is his name? Fieri. I don't know, Guy. He calls it TOC. It's the most awesomest thing in the world.
Starting point is 00:49:54 I've watched all three seasons. Can't wait for it to end. Thank you, and I love you guys when you guys come into Milwaukee. Bye. I do love Guy Fieri. Have you ever heard this bit about guy fieri not understanding why people rip on him can someone please explain to me what the hell guy fieri ever did to anyone y'all know who i'm talking about the celebrity chef people shit on that dude all the time
Starting point is 00:50:23 and as far as I can tell, all he ever did was follow his dreams. Do you understand? People are horrible to a television personality and he didn't do anything wrong. Here's what he did do, America. He started a company where he hires everybody. He pays more than minimum wage. He gives health benefits before he has to. He has a non-profit where he gives pretzel making
Starting point is 00:50:52 machines to schools so they can fundraise. I know that one sounds like I made it up, but I swear to Christ it's true. He works with Special Olympics athletes, and if you need a little more sugar with this medicine, he also officiated a gay wedding. Yeah. But because he has flames on his shirt, everybody shits all over this dude like he's a member of Nickelback. And by the way, what the hell did Nickelback ever do? They made 40 million bros happy?
Starting point is 00:51:26 Yeah, you don't want them walking around pissed off. That's how we ended up in this mess. Wendy from... Oh, Creek! You got some more for us. Oh, it's Wendy again from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Another favorite thing is I binge-watched the Yellowstone series. Everyone needs a Beth in their life.
Starting point is 00:51:46 Beth all the way. Rippin' Beth. Yay, yay. See ya. Bye-bye. Hey, Waltz and Brandy. Hey. My name is Sam, and I love this pod.
Starting point is 00:51:53 Hi, Sam. And I wanted to give you my favorite thing this month. It's a book by Riley Sager called Survive the Night. Okay. And it's right up Brandy's alley when it comes to psychological thrillers. It's November 1991. Nirvana's in the tape deck. George H.W. Bush is in the White House.
Starting point is 00:52:11 And a movie-obsessed college student, Charlie Jordan, is in a car with a man who might be a serial killer. Survive the night. That looks dope. Gonna read that one. What up, YFT? This is Rachel from Nashville. Hey, Rachel. One of my favorite things is Withco cocktail mixers.
Starting point is 00:52:31 These are delicious and come in a bunch of different varieties. They're also good if you mix them with sparkling water, club soda, something like that, for a mocktail, which is currently where I'm at. Also, this is hashtag not an ad. Love you guys. All right. Witko, is that what you said? That sounds pretty good. I'm Stephanie from Washington State.
Starting point is 00:52:52 And my favorite, favorite thing is snuggling my grandbaby and my dogs. You can't beat that. Okay, but we can't replicate that unless we come over to your house and then we snuggle your grandbabies and stuff. And that would be weird, you know, so that doesn't really help. Steph, I love you. Hey, Wells and Brandy. I am excited to share one of my favorite things.
Starting point is 00:53:12 OK, I'm Anne and I'm from Iowa. I have been a listener for so long and a huge fan. One of my recent favorite things would be a book series by Rachel Cain. It's the Stillhouse Lake book series. And I just finished book three. It's five books in the series. And so book three was Wolf Hunter River. Really good series.
Starting point is 00:53:34 It's about a woman whose husband was a serial killer. And so if you like murder mysteries, suspense type books, they are fantastic. And I have loved all three and I'm super excited for the next two. Thank you. Yeah, that sounds awesome too. So I just saw your story asking for our favorite things
Starting point is 00:53:55 and you want voice notes. So I think I'm doing this the way you want. You are. My name's Britt. I'm from Maryland. And one of my favorite things that just came back is Outlander, which is phenomenal if you haven't watched. I think it's on its
Starting point is 00:54:09 fifth season and it's on stars. Definitely deserves all the dings. And then my husband and I started watching The Last Kingdom on Netflix. Also a period piece. It's got Vikings in it, lots of death, lots of sex, Lots of sex.
Starting point is 00:54:25 Lots of good stuff. So we're on the third season of that right now. And I think the fifth season just dropped. So again, not a new thing. But also deserves all the dings. Hopefully you guys like them too. Love the baby in the background. Just like gurgling.
Starting point is 00:54:42 Also, Britt, you have a vibe. You like period pieces with lots of sex and murder. And I love that about you. This is Kristen from Grammaran, New Brunswick, Canada. What up? My favorite thing is the book, The Nightingale, which I don't think is new, but is new to me. And I'm loving it.
Starting point is 00:54:59 And I'm also loving documentaries on Netflix, specifically climbing documentaries. And my least favorite thing is Wells recommending the climbing documentary and not giving a heads up for the ending. Well, I hated that ending. That is my least favorite thing. I know. But listen, if Kristen, I think that's what you said your name was.
Starting point is 00:55:21 If I said the ending, then that would spoil it. Do you understand? I can't do that. I agree with you. your name was. If I said the ending, then that would spoil it. Do you understand? I can't do that. I agree with you. That ending sucked, but it's real life, you know? And it's sad, okay? And I'll just tell you, he died. Okay, I'll just ruin it for you because whatever.
Starting point is 00:55:34 Like we did it. One of my favorite things is audiobooks. Same. I know Brandy gives Wells crap about that all the time, but audiobooks are the best because I can get so much done and still enjoy a book. And recently, the book that I've listened to is The Guest List by Lucy Foley, I believe is her name. Yeah, I listened to that. It's really good. It's a murder mystery.
Starting point is 00:55:59 And yeah, my name is Janetta. I realize I didn't say that, and clearly, I'm really not good at this voice momo thing. But I figured I'd try. Yeah, Janetta, I talked about that book, I don't know, maybe a year and a half ago. Great book. I like that one. Hi, Wells, I'm Brandy. This is Mariana from Brazil. And my favorite thing right now is Lollapalooza. I'm so excited. I get to go this Saturday in Brazil. And also I wanted to ask if you have any tips for me. This is my first festival and my first big event since the pandemic. So yeah, I'm so excited for Miley.
Starting point is 00:56:35 I'm going because of her, but I also want to experience the whole festival thing. And Brandy, are you playing anywhere in Brazil? We're so excited to have you. Well, Brandy is in Brazil right now. That's why she's on the show. But go to her stories. I'm sure they're showing where she's playing. But yeah, she's definitely playing all those things.
Starting point is 00:56:58 As a person who used to cover music festivals as a job, I do have some suggestions for you. A lot of times there's an app that goes along with the festival. Like Bonnaroo has an app and Coachella has an app. And I imagine Lala Blues has an app. And you can go in there and you can kind of say the things that you like on the app. You know, it's almost like how Netflix can be like, what shows do you like? And then you'll kind of, you'll check off the bands that you already know you like. And then it'll kind of suggest other bands that you might like because of the bands that you said you did like. And then I would make an effort to go see some of those bands. What I always did at festivals was,
Starting point is 00:57:31 unless it was Paul McCartney or Tom Petty, Eminem, a band that I knew I wanted to sit and watch the entire thing, I would try to only do 20 minutes at a show. Obviously, you want to go and see Miley, you need to go see Miley's entire set. But I would go and be like, I'm going to go catch 20 minutes at a show obviously you want to go and see miley and go see miley's entire set but i would go and be like i'm gonna go catch 20 minutes of this band i'm gonna get 20 minutes from this super jam over here i'm gonna get 20 minutes from this dj set over here i'm gonna do 20 minutes at the silent disco and i'm gonna do 20 minutes and i'll just bebop around and that's the that way you can just experience most then sometimes you'll be like i'm gonna do 20 minutes and you find a band be like i never heard this band before then you're oh, what is this band? This band's amazing. And then you can say it the entire time.
Starting point is 00:58:05 That's my suggestion. Wells. Yes. This is a fuck you very much. Okay. Here we go. Love it. Even though I like you, I still have to say it.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Okay. Because every night when I go to sleep, there's a period of time that I spend being very aware that my tongue is resting on the top of my mouth. Isn't that annoying? And it eats up precious sleep time. It does. I'm sorry. So that's all I have to say.
Starting point is 00:58:34 This is Maggie. I'm sorry, Maggie. Sorry I've done that to you. But here we are. My pain needs to be your pain. That's just how I live. This is Melanie from the Boston area. My favorite things right now are single drunk
Starting point is 00:58:47 female on freeform it has sofia d elia in it she was in the show called the mick with d from always sunny yeah she's a good actress i like her and i really love hacks on h. I'm not sure if you guys have talked about that yet, but it's really good. Also, I was just wondering if Brandy ever runs into Mary-Kate Olsen at horse shows. Love you guys. Thanks. Whoa. Does Mary-Kate Olsen do horse shows? Does she horse shows too?
Starting point is 00:59:20 I did not know that. That's amazing. We got to ask her. Oh, yeah. I also miss Erotic Grandpa. I liked when you used to introduce and call people's names with the little stories in that voice. Bye. Well, Erotic Grandpa misses you as well.
Starting point is 00:59:38 And I think that just about does it for episode 197 of your favorite thing podcast. Which, shockingly enough, I'm 97 years old. does it for episode 197 of your favorite thing podcast. Which, shockingly enough, I'm 97 years old. It's been 40 years since my penis worked. And 43 since anyone's touched it. But since Brandy's gone, I get to be back on the show because she's the one who doesn't like old people. It's senior citizen abuse. And I won't stand it.
Starting point is 01:00:09 So to all of you YFTers out there, remember, Erotic Grandpa is always here for you. Even when I'm dead and gone, I will haunt you. I think we have time for one more call. Who else played the clip? And to all you IFTs out there, we love you. This was a fun episode.
Starting point is 01:00:29 My favorite thing is the Your Favorite Thing podcast with Wells and Brady. Love you guys. That was a lot of fun. I feel like that was cool having all you guys on the show. I don't know if I'm going to do it every episode.
