Brandi gives the best ever Tish Cyrus impression, and confesses to the things one must do when in a long-distance relationship that include video calling and nudity. They also bond over their shared satisfaction of the karma that that came to the South African poacher, their theories for the next seasons of Game of Thrones, and reminisce about how they came up with YFT over Mexican food.

Woke up, did my two radio shows. Then I left and I went to Hallmark Channel for home and family. Oh yeah. I saw that. How cool was that? Dude, because cooking wells is going global. Can you, can you believe that the stupid thing that I came up with, like kind of drunk has become so popular that Hallmark Channel has decided to completely forget that half of my cooking wells thing is me cussing and swearing and being like overall offensive to have me.

But aside from all of that, it's a great concept. I know. They were like, oh, we got to have wells on. So, yeah, I went like they're the most wholesome, wonderful people. That's funny. And I was like, so am I supposed to do like the voice and like cuss and they're like no no no no no don't do that and i was like but that's what cooking wells is you had to know they weren't gonna let you do that but they made me they made me do the voice but then i didn't cuss

you know no they did yeah they were like was it hard to hold back yeah cuss, you know? No, they did? Yeah, they were like. Was it hard to hold back? Yeah. Uh-huh. You know. Hi there, friends. Welcome to another episode of Cooking Whales. Today we're making some tacos. And they're like, oh my God, what is that? And I was like, you're as confused as I am as to the popularity of this thing.

So there that is. So I did that. That was a lot of fun and then i had to come home then i went to hoffer to host the the trivia game that i do on my phone on your phone and then i came back here and now we're doing this so it's just bing bang boom getting it done and derek's here because he flew out because derek and steph pratt have been going on dates and oh really yeah but we didn't need to talk about that because that's like a different podcast that's not this one you know uh-huh Derek get it that's hilarious cute well sounds like you've had a great day I've

had the most relaxing day ever and i needed it so badly the tour really put me over the edge yeah um i went on a hike this morning by myself took a little 30 minute drive outside of denver did a four mile hike there was hardly anybody on the trail it was an absolutely perfect day outside it was like 65 and sunny it was wonderful and then I came back, made some food and then started packing, cleaning up my house. And then I just had a massage and here we are. Couldn't ask for a better day. Hell yeah, man. You want to start the show? Sure. I feel like it's your time to start. Bros and hoes or hoes and bro. Hoes need to get

top billing. One of these times. Hoes and bros. You think? Yeah get top billing. Hoes and bros. Yeah, I think so. I don't get top billing, though. That's true. Do you want? Okay, this episode, hoes are getting top billing all over the place, okay?

Yes. Hoes and bros, you're listening to your favorite podcast with Brandine Wells. Yeah. Hey, hey, hey. Sounds weird. I got a couple favorite things

that have to do with social media and the Cyrus clan. I don't know if you want to get right into it. Oh, you do? I do. I'm going to start with you because you're the most important thing.

Me? Yeah, and you're one of my favorite things. Oh, cute. Derek and I were coming back from Hoffffer and we were scrolling through he was scrolling through instagram while i was driving and a little picture of uh brandi cyrus shows up really knowing her angle showing off a nice little booty in some stretchy pants was it was it diamond status content would you say it was diamond status looking good girl i don't know what you've been doing i don't know if it's all the gluten-free bread you've been crushing what's happening but i'll know but the booty is looking on point why thank you you're welcome it's a very high compliment. All right, what else you got, Cyrus fam favorites?

Well, it's really funny. So on one of my radio shows, we started playing this song. When? It was probably two, three weeks ago. Yep. And I get an email from my boss and he's like, okay, there's this new song that we're putting into the playlist. It's going to be showing

up a lot in your time slot because i'm i do nights so you can kind of play edgier newer music right right and i was like okay cool and he was like just so you know this kid got famous because of tiktok and i was like what's tikt And he's like, it's this social media app. It's a thing. And I was like, yeah, okay, whatever. And he's like, just so you have some context of like what the hell this is. And I was like, yeah, cool.

That was a couple weeks ago. And then all of a sudden Lil Nas X is like the biggest thing in the world. Old Town Road is the song right now. So that was a couple weeks ago. And then earlier this week, my boy Blood, my boy BR,

all of a sudden does a remix with Lil Nas X. And this is what I love about it like you're you're here's what I think about your family is so good at working the system what do you mean by that like using social media and using younger artists and crossing over and stuff to make everyone succeed and i was like so your dad posted this video so he did a remix with lil nas x how do i find that by the way just remix spotify apple yeah i just type in old town road remix um so do you want to hear some some backstory on this from my point of view no hold on i just

want to finish what i saw so okay your dad and uh lil nas x did this thing and then your dad posted on twitter this like old stock video of him dancing on stage and like dancing really badly or whatever and but with like the new remix. And it was. By the time I saw it. Which was like right in the beginning. It had like thousands of retweets and everything. And I just wrote.

Blood you're getting so good at social media. I saw this. It's blowing my mind man. But anyways. I will say this though. Your dad's like addition to the song. Kind of lit dude. Oh very lit. Dude. So lit right. Now it's like a to the song, kind of lit, dude. Oh, very lit.

Dude. So lit, right? Now it's like a whole nother thing where people are like joking around about like the lyric that he wrote, right? Mm-hmm. Dude, I'm so proud of you. I'm so proud of Blood, you know? Right? Me too, man.

Tell me the like your behind the scenes stuff of it. So yeah, I feel a little bad that I actually didn't tell you when this happened. But so I was on Caitlin's tour, and I hadn't really talked to my mom or dad very often just because I just had been so busy and on so many planes. And then one day, I had like a day off in New York. I think it was New York. And I FaceTimed my mom. And I was like, what have you guys been doing? I haven't heard from you in days. That's weird.

I had FaceTime my mom. And I was like, what have you guys been doing? I haven't heard from you in days. That's weird. And she was like, Bran, your dad is about to have a number one single. And I was like, what are you talking about? And I was like, are you guys high? What's going on here?

And she was like, we are. But I'm telling you, your dad is going to be the talk of the town this time next week. And I was like, all right, you got to tell me or whatever. They're like ecstatic over here. By the way, your Tish impersonation is the best thing I've ever heard in my entire life. That's because I have

to listen to it all the time. Yeah, whatever. So anyway, so they send me, so what happened was like Lil Nas X, right,

he puts this song out and it starts to gain so much momentum and I think it was climbing the Billboard chart is I believe what was happening and they took it down because they said it wasn't country music and it was on a country chart so they

took the song down and so basically um a couple industry people that know my mom and my dad hit her up and was like hey there's this song give it a listen you know they're saying it's not country what if we put billy ray on it let him do a verse and feature it and then we release it and then i can't say it's not country whatever billy ray cyrus is on it so she sent me like a demo version of what my dad had just like laid down a verse literally over over like listening to the song on a computer just he like that's how he wrote it yeah and then they went then once you know everything got approved they brought little nuts x in and they did it together and turns out little nuts x a huge brc fan who knew um and so that was like the last week and I just kept hearing like oh this

is gonna blow up oh this is gonna blow up and I'm like I'm such like a realist I don't know not pessimist realist and I'm like you know what like we'll see like that would be really cool but like I'll believe it when I see it kind of thing and then lo and behold as my dad would say Thursday night right before Friday morning the song comes out and it's on New Music Friday and like I wake leave it when I see it kind of thing and then lo and behold as my dad would say Thursday night right before Friday morning the song comes out and it's on New Music Friday and like I wake up Friday morning and there and like every press outlet has written about it I'm talking like hype beast pitchfork like all the cool blogs are all like raving about it saying my dad killed it memes all over the place it's like not only is they taking the video of my dad dancing, but any video of like any Cyrus member on a horse has been taken and put online.

It would do this off to the track of the song. And it's just freaking hysterical. And my dad is just on cloud nine. He's just so happy. I love seeing him happy. That's the line right there. Hold on. Fendi sports bras. Fendi sports bra.

Maserati sports car. God. I mean, let's just for a second just appreciate blood right now. Ride till I can't. Yeah, I'm gonna take my horse to the road. I mean, like, the song was catchy. Your dad, I don't know, man, made it a whole different thing. It's so good.

You put it up. It's so good, dude. BRC, killing the game. What's crazy about this is that Old Town Road, he's got almost 12 million spins on it today. Achy Breaky Heart has 30, or sorry, 11, did I say 11, almost 12 million spins on it today. Achy Breaky Heart has 30, or sorry, 11, did I say 11, almost 12 million spins? Yeah.

Achy Breaky has almost 34 million. So in the span of a couple days, this song is one third as popular as arguably one of the most iconic country songs of ours or any other generation so uh tip of the tip of the old stetson do you brc blood love you buddy so happy for you and your family i love it i'm annoyed that you didn't tell me this i know i will i also like i didn't want to start talking about it and then it like come out and no one talk about it and maybe like oh just kidding but no i'm sure it feels like a

family win like when one of us does something great you know yeah um and i think it's cool because like this kid you know like that has to like suck to have so much momentum with something and then people take it down say it's not it's not country enough it's not this enough it's not that enough or whatever and so for my dad to come in and be like you know what it is and we're gonna prove them wrong i think it's very cool i like i like how they just need billy ray cyrus to make anything country yeah it's funny you know and there's like a lot of people hating on it in the country music industry and a bunch of other country artists i'm not gonna name names but i saw some stuff from the acms this past weekend and people can hate on it all they want they can say it's

country they're not country all they want but at the end of the day it's the number one song and they can't take that away from them you know what i mean and i just feel like country music for whatever reason of all the genres like country always feels the most threatened by outside influence and i don't know why that is i know why that is influence. And I don't know why that is. I know why that is. Why is that? I don't know if you want to get political with it, but to me, it's very obvious. Generally, country music people are middle Americans,

salt of the earth, conservatives. And what is one thing that conservatives are very, very scared of? Change. Change. And this is very, very scared of? Change. Change. And this is very, very different, you know? That's true. That's a great point.

Yeah, that is a good point. I don't know. I'm so happy. He's a kid, too. People are tearing him down, but he's a freaking kid. I don't know. I'm happy for him. I think he's so cool.

My mom's met him. She absolutely loves the guy. And I don't know. It feels like a win to me. I'm happy for my dad i mean like i was watching the videos of like billy ray and little naz like in that studio where we've recorded this podcast before and they're like dancing and like he and billy ray is like super pumped about his verse which is by the way oh yeah i mean it's such like i'm not to take any weight thing away from your, but like it's such a Miley verse to me, you know?

Oh, totally. Right? Like, I feel like your dad was like, what would Miley say here? You know? Miley's the song's biggest fan. I don't know if you've watched her Instagram stories over the past few days. It's all she's posted about. It's all she's talked about.

My mom said that she's literally FaceTimed the two of them like every every every other hour since the song came out like she's just ecstatic about it yeah she loves it it's so cool well anyways uh one of my favorite things is blood charting right now i mean how great is that it's super great no one's happier than my mother though i gotta say yeah can can tish come back on the show real quick? We should have her on next week. No, no, no. Can you just be Tish real quick? Oh, let me, let me, let me interview you as, as your mother. Tish, great to see you. I've missed you so much. You look beautiful.

How well. How proud of you are? How proud are you of your husband right now? After, after getting this number one with Lil Nas X? Oh my God, I could not be more proud of my hot husband. And I knew before anyone else that this song was going to be a banger. I heard it and I knew. And I am here to tell you that I was the first one on the Old Town Road train. And I just could not be happier for my family and my hardworking hubby and we are just ecstatic. God forbid anything happens to Billy Ray,

what's like the next thing that happens in your life romantically? Oh, well, you better tell Sarah that she needs to step on back because you know that if anything happens to Billy Ray, I am coming and knocking on your door. You are weirdly good at doing your mom's voice. It's actually one of the most...

It's one of my favorite things ever. I didn't know that you did it so well. Because you always just... You've done it in small spurts before. She'll say this word this way, and then you'll do it. And I'm like, yeah, that does sound like her. But I've never heard... I was just transported back to your mom's house right there that's hilarious oh man so what else is going on with you dude i mean

crap ola what's happening in the cyrus clan i know a lot happening a lot happening it's a little over one like noah's in bali on a songwriter's trip cool cool um my sisters you know announcing festivals one right after the other so freaking she's playing prima vera and barcelona it's so cool did you see that no but i would like to go to that one no right or woodstock though you want to go to woodstock well woodstock's interesting because it's been 50 years since the festival happened. Yeah. Like, you know that there's only been two Woodstocks, right?

Yeah. So the 50-year thing is going to be a big deal. I think the lineup looks great. So I think we should go to that and we should do a live podcast because people want it. We'd love it. But how do we get to Barcelona? Like, how does that work? I'm actually going to be in South Africa

during that festival, unfortunately. I actually need an update on Michelle Hilsman real quick. Oh, you do? I do. Because we haven't really talked about in the last couple episodes. I want to give you some space. But like, how are things going?

Yeah. Things are great. You know, what's funny is, so on this tour, the KB tour, so many YFTers there, obviously. And they were all, first thing they asked was, can we see your boyfriend? Did you show him? I did. Oh, wow.

In a sneak peek. Yeah. They were ecstatic. He's a good looking man. We're actually planning his trip here. So he's not coming into August. And I know that seems really far away, but it's going to sneak up on us. And he really like it's his dream to go to Yellowstone.

So we're going to do a little road trip ski and I'm going to take him to Yellowstone. We're going to camp and do some things. And so, yeah, we've been planning it. And I'm just so excited. That's good. You're getting aroused thinking about it as well. I wasn't. But, you know, you can, sure.

Yeah. Do you guys have phone sex? Skype sex, I would say. Yeah, okay. Even if it's not Skype. It's like WhatsApp. WhatsApp sex. WhatsApp sex.

That's cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, whatever. Skype sex is so old school. Is it? I mean, who uses Skype besides us right now? Yeah, we're doing this podcast on Skype. Should we do this podcast on WhatsApp?

No, I don't think they have a desktop version, to be honest. Oh, okay. I could be wrong. But no, he's great. I'm going there for my birthday. So that's going to be relatively soon. Yeah. Yeah, things are great.

All right. All right. All right, so one of my favorite things is that we are teaming up with Smile Direct Club because Brandi's got a broke-ass grill and she needs it fixed. Okay, it's just my bottom teeth, but I gotta say, I am actually very excited about it.

hiding your bottom teeth like Brandy over here. Seriously, though, like when I was a kid, you know, I did the whole braces thing, retainers thing, and somehow still I came out with crooked bottom teeth. And I've always wanted to fix it. But just like who wants to go to the dentist and like go through the whole thing and have to go back and forth? It's a lot. It's a big commitment.

i pull my quip toothbrush off the mirror and pack it away. It's just so cute. And I truly like, I'm such a fan of this toothbrush. What do you got? I got the gum metal gray. What's your, what's your color quip toothbrush? Mine's rose gold. Oh, it is.

All right. I can see that. That checks out actually. I love my quip toothbrush too, man. I mean, it's great for travel because it's got a great traveling case that comes with it. It hooks on to the walls or the mirror. So when you're at a hotel, you don't have to have your toothbrush on any surface. It's just suspended in air, which is great.

But it's also super dope to have in the house. It makes, I feel like, my bathroom look a little bit cooler, you know, which I feel like it's important. Totally. Totally. Whenever some people come to visit, they're always like, what is that toothbrush on your mirror? It's so cool. I get so many compliments on it. And honestly, as much as it's cool, like it's also so practical. One of my biggest things about brushing my teeth I'm so bad about is doing the full two minutes. Me too. I usually brush teeth for two minutes. I'm so impatient. I'm usually so tired before I go to bed that I don't want to stand there for two minutes. But Quip is great because it has a built-in timer and it pulses every 30 seconds to remind you when to switch

sides or when to switch from your top teeth to your bottom. And it keeps you accountable to stand there for the two minutes. I know, man. It's hard for me to do anything for two minutes. Wow. I do love the multi- I cover, amounts to the mirror and amounts and slides over your bristles for on-the-go brushing. And also like the best thing about this thing, and there's a lot of great things, but the brush heads are automatically delivered on a dentist recommended schedule every three months for just five bucks. So you didn't have to remember when it's time to change your toothbrush. It just gets sent to you. It's perfect. Yeah. Not only do they send you brush heads, but they also send you new batteries for the toothbrush, which is so great because you

don't have to plug it in or anything. The batteries last three months and then when your brush heads get delivered, your new batteries get delivered. That's why we love Quip and that's why they're backed by over 20,000 dental professionals. Quip starts at just 25 bucks and if you go to getquip.com slash YFT for your favorite thing,

you'll get your first refill pack free with a Quip electric toothbrush. That's your first refill pack free with Equip electric toothbrush. That's your first refill pack free at G-E-T-Q-U-I-P dot com slash Y-F-T. Clean teeth. You want to do some favorite things? Sure. Oh, my gosh. So I've been trying to watch some new stuff for the pod.

I had to watch, what is it called? Like Triple Frontier or something. The Netflix movie I've been wanting to watch some new stuff for the pod. I had to watch, what is it called? Like Triple Frontier or something. The Netflix movie I've been wanting to watch. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It did not hold my attention. I didn't even make it through the whole movie. Maybe that's why it was on Netflix.

Yeah, I was disappointed. But then I started the Highwaymen movie and it's really good. I haven't finished it, but I liked it a lot. Yeah. Yeah. i saw a documentary that i thought was really interesting called cocaine island oh i'll give it a ding dang a dooger so i'll just kind of like paint the picture of what it is so it's about a guy who's like this kind of big hippie who lives in i think texas or Oklahoma or something, kind of walks around the town, kind of keeps to himself.

And he's got some outlier friends. And they're all at a party one night. And he would tell this story of the time that he lived in Puerto Rico. He lived in Puerto Rico for like six or seven years. And one day he was walking on the beach and he found this big duffel bag. And he looked at the duffel bag and it was about street value, two million dollars worth of cocaine. But he didn't know what to do with it nor did know what, you know, how to get it back to America or whatever. So he just took the duffel bag and he buried it kind of close to his house.

But he told everyone about it. about it. The documentary is about two people who've heard this story, who tried to figure out a way to go down, get the cocaine, bring it back to the States and sell it and what happens in their journey. And it's really funny, really well done. I will say this, the hippie who found the cocaine isn't a liar, just in case you're wondering. Oh. Yeah. So it's good. It's good.

The way that they redo it and reenact it, it's a little hokey, but pretty funny. There's a main character and then a supporting actor. They're not actors, but that's how I would describe it. And the supporting guy is so wackadoo that you have to watch it just for him. Oh. Cocaine Island. Go check it out. Cocaine Island.

All right. Okay. I started watching, what's it called? Our Earth. The new like, have you seen that on Netflix? No. Is it like Planet Earth? I never watched Planet Earth, but I would assume that it is.

Okay. No, it's really good. How do they shoot those things? I don't know. All that HQ quality. What? Is Derek there? Yeah.

Are you leaving? Is your Uber here? Derek. Okay. Oh, she wants to say. Tell him to come over. Come over, she says. Hey, Derek.

Hey, Brandy. I saw a great booty picture of you today. I hear that you're in LA. You over, she says. Hey, Derek. Hey, Brandy. I saw a great booty picture of you today. I hear that you're in L.A. getting a hot piece of ass. No, what did you say? I'm sorry. I said I hear that you're in L.A. getting a hot piece of ass. Yes. Let me clear my throat for a second.

Very important to say yes. It's your life, Derek. Look at your life, Brandy. I don't know. That's all I wanted to say. It was a fun weekend. I need to see you again sometime. You're talking to me or her?

Yeah, me. Stop trying to steal my bachelor friends. Okay, listen. Something tells me you're going to be back soon to LA So maybe I'll see you soon Wait where do you live right now Denver Okay I hope so

Okay have fun recording Thank you Bye buddy Aw they're hugging that's cute I miss you I miss you too You leaving right now Yeah it's getting to the point Bye-bye, baby. Aw, they're hugging. That's cute. I miss you. I miss you, too. You leaving right now?

Yeah, it's getting to the point. Yeah. Okay. All right, buddy. Good to see you. Thank you so much for everything, dude. I'm so sorry that you got fucking robbed. Yeah.

What? Yeah, I got robbed. Where? His car got broken into. All right, later, dude. Yeah, he got robbed in San Francisco. It was brutal, bro. What do you mean?

Tell me about it. He texted me because we were all going to this charity event. So Derek texts me and he's like, hey, man, I lost my key to my rental car. This is going to be a problem for me to get over to this charity event in Napa. And I was like, well, I don't know. Call the rental people. I'm sure this happens more often than you'd think. So then he like 10 minutes later, he texts me and he goes, it's much worse than I originally thought. And there was a giant brick through his window. And in his rental car, he had like his bag and with his like MacBook Pro and his keys to his car in you know new york yeah and yeah so he got that's a bummer yeah it sucks so not one of my favorite thing who ever did that jerk yeah that sucks all right yeah uh you got any other uh okay um wait i didn't finish talking about it's called our

our planet or something oh yeah so i. So, I don't understand. They have such high quality footage of, like, polar bears hunting seals. And, like, how do they get that stuff? I don't know. Drones, maybe? You know what is so dumb? What is so dumb? I understand.

It's a circle of life that things have to eat. But it is so dumb that, like like polar bears that are so cute have to eat cute little seals i know yeah who's cuter than the cute i know it sucks do you know it's you know what's not so dumb though and i really liked hearing what um let me read the story because i did it on my show today and i was like i I don't think people are going to think this is funny, but I think it's hilarious. A suspected poacher who was hunting rhino in South Africa was killed by an elephant and his body was devoured by lions,

according to Kruger National Park officials. The remains of a man whose identity was not released was recovered in the Crocodile Bridge section of the park. They knew where to find him after others who were with the poacher called the man's family to let them know what happened. The family called the park ranger and put them put out a search party. Evidence at the scene suggested a pride of lions had eaten the body, leaving only a human skull and a pair of pants. I love that. Don't go poach freaking rhinos, bro.

I know that's what he gets. That's what you get for going and beautiful, majestic rhinos, which by the way are endangered now. Yes, they are. And show no sign of giving anyone a boner. You don't grind down rhino horn and get boners. You just go get Viagra weirdos. And so he was doing that being a jerk

and then a bunch of elephants were like let's fuck this guy up and then a bunch of elephants went in there started like messing him around and then some lions came in there ate him and i don't want anyone to die but sometimes karma is a bitch agreed anyways what's more dope ass elephants like bullying around a total jerk or lions coming in there and being like we know you guys don't eat meat but we'll do the dirty work what's what's more badass elephants or lions in this scenario i honestly think the badass part about it is that the elephants and lions like having the same goal yeah for once you know what i mean yeah yeah yeah and they were like you know what rhinos have always been cool you know yeah i don't understand why you guys are going after the rhinos

so you know what this guy is going down he's gotta go he's gotta go i have a favorite um la saying that i've been hearing more and more and i think it's beautiful okay i've been hearing this a couple times um where it's like you know i um i really don't want to i don't want to hang out with that person because I'm sensitive to their energy and their energy kind of doesn't mess with mine, which is the most LA way of saying I don't fucking like you. But this makes it sound so much more enlightened and zenned out that people are are like oh yeah yeah yeah you guys just energies don't match up but what you're really saying is i fucking hate that person can't stand you don't come around but i want to sound smart and enlightened so oh man i'm sensitive to your energy bro have you heard that before this is why

i don't live in la whatever whatever you've lived here before i hated it i have a book actually what do you got tell me about it i need a new book because the book i'm reading right now i do not like i have like a mixed review about it till i'm gonna grab it off my desk okay go get it oh and a yftr sent me a dm a book recommendation that I'm going to pick up at the airport tomorrow. I love that. Okay, so this one, it's called Sometimes I Lie. Alice Feeney is the author. And so I picked it up because it had, and I'm sure they get like paid to do this or whatever.

We should actually do a little research and find out the truth behind that. But like one of my other favorite authors had a little little like quote on the front that was like that like approves I approve this book. You know what I mean? Yeah. And so I was like, I love B.A. Paris. So like I'm going to pick this up. OK, so do you want to read the thing on the back? Do it. Amber Reynolds wakes up in a hospital. She can't move, speak or open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber can't remember what happened to her, but she has a sneaking suspicion that her husband has something to do with it, or maybe her sister or both terrified and trapped inside her own body. Amber slowly begins to piece together details from her recent past. Is she in a coma due to an accident? Is her sister having an

affair with her husband? What happened at work with her horrible boss? And who was the person who was silently visiting her bedside each night? sounds like my nightmare right terrifying it actually like is even like more terrifying than that when you get into it but the the thing here's the thing i did like about it so it's the way it's written is very interesting chapters are either titled then now or before okay and so you read the before chapters it's it chapters. It's like a dear diary type thing from like a little girl. And so you assume it's the same girl that's narrating, you know, so you're reading through and you're like, all right, so I'm getting a blast from like seeing her childhood. And then I'm reading now and she's in a hospital and like whatever.

And then it talks about before the accident. And then it talks about like currently in the coma. So you're getting like three different timelines of this girl's life or whatnot all at the same time. So it's just very interesting. And I did like that about it. That was a very uniquely written way to write something in my opinion. However, the end of it was like a little too vague for me. It didn't – all the ends didn't get tied together quite like I would have liked. Like it left it a little too vague for me. It didn't, it, all the ends didn't get tied together quite like I would have liked.

Like it left it a little too open ended. Like I like when the author lets you interpret stuff for sure. But like, I don't know, like I wanted a little more closure at the end. Yeah. Yeah. That's my two cents.

All right. So you liked it, but you didn't love it. Yes. Okay. I need, I need a good book rec. If anyone's got one,

tweet to me, please. At Wells Adams. I took, I took a screenshot book rec. If anyone's got one, tweet to me, please, at Wells Adams. I took a screenshot of the one somebody tweeted me or whatever. It's called No Exit by Taylor Adams. I'm going to pick it up. Oh, that's my cousin, actually. That's weird. Weird, right, bruh? shout out to Paul Rudd turning 50 years old I'm glad that he's still

drinking the blood of 18 year old virgins because for whatever reason he looks no older than 25 looks great you know Avenger okay there's so much coming yeah we're gonna have a lot to talk about

in the next couple weeks right because GOT Game of Thrones is coming out. Game of Thrones. And then also, the new Avengers movie is premiering next week. I know. There's a lot coming out. Dude, I gotta go to that too.

So, I was listening to, I can't take credit for this, so this is someone else's theory that I heard that I thought was great. Okay. Listening to a podcast that Dane Cook was on. Love Dane Cook. And I used to love Dane Cook, then I didn't love Dane Cook. And then after this interview, I was like, oh, you know what? I think I maybe was a little too harsh on Dane Cook. So his theory on Game of Thrones, I really liked it. And so it was one of my favorite

theories of game of thrones that i wanted to share with the listeners okay so he thinks that daenerys and jon are going to be killed by her dragon i don't like that theory hold on i'm not i just started dramatize already i know but that continued so he was like but that continues with the theme of the child is the murderer of the father or the of the parents and that continues that theme so they die the person that wins the throne is circe jam. I hate this theory. Can you just let me say it? And then tell me what you think.

And then Jaime comes back and he has to kill Cersei because she cranked, right? Jaime decides, and I'm not sure if this part is Dane Cook's or not, but I don't think it is, but I think this is what's gonna happen. Then I think that Jaime's gonna be like, I don't think it is. But I think this is going to happen. Then I think that Jaime's going to be like,

I need help. I need my hand. I need the hand of the king back. So he's going to try to convince Tyrion to come back to be the hand of the king. And then Tyrion's going to kill Jaime because Tyrion is a Targaryen. He ain't no Lannister.

Tyrion ends up on the throne as the king. Last thing, Bran is the night king. He goes to one of those trees and holds onto the roots and goes back in time. And you remember how the Three-Eyed Raven was like, if you stay too long underwater, you'll drown. You have to let go.

So what D dane was saying was he does that he stays too long his eyes go white because he's like he's gone under and gone back in time and then the night king grabs him or he grabs the night king and his white eyes turn blue and then he's the Night King. Interesting. You still don't like that theory? I hate that theory. What do you want to have happen? John Snow isn't going to die. He's died already. He didn't come back to life

just to die all over again. So I don't like that. I don't like Tyrion killing Jaime. Tyrion loves Jaime. Like loves Jaime. He would never do that. Okay. Where does Sansa go in all this? And Arya? I don't know what's going to happen to Arya. Because she can use so many different faces,

like, it changes everything. There's also a theory out there that the girl that, like, would, like, beat her with a stick was actually Sansa. And then... Or, sorry, was... What's her name? Sansa? Arya. The girl that was beating her with a stick was actually Sansa. And then, or sorry, was what's her name? Sansa? Arya.

The girl that was beating her with the stick was actually Arya. And the girl that killed the girl with the stick was the girl with the stick. And it was like, they switched faces. And at the end of this whole thing, the girl with the stick is going to be playing all

Jon Snow and what's their family name? The Starks. Going to be playing all Jon Snow and what's their family name? The Starks. Going to be playing all the Starks, even though she's a faceless person that's being directed by that one guy who's taught them all. Have you heard that theory before? No, but that's an interesting theory.

Yeah. So many theories. All right. I can't think too much about Game of Thrones. It makes me depressed. Would you like to hear another one of my favorite things? Yes, I would. That's what the show is all about.

I had a few fans give me cards while I was on tour. No, they didn't. Yeah, they did. No, I believe you. You're staring at them. I know. I know. That's crazy.

So sweet. I could absolutely die. So I just had to give them a cute little shout out. Okay. I tried to find Jen Laterman on Instagram to tell her thank you, and I couldn't find her on Instagram because the only way I could think find Jen Laterman on Instagram to tell her thank you, and I couldn't find her on Instagram. Because the only way I could think of to find her on Instagram is to search who follows the YFT podcast Instagram account. And she either has a different name on her Instagram handle or doesn't follow the account.

And I'm here to tell you, Jen, you got to follow the YFT account. Yep. Because I could have given you a shout out. YFT podcast on Instagram. Please follow. Yeah. Give us a follow.. YFT podcast on Instagram. Please follow. Yeah, give us a follow, would you? No, but seriously, Jen, she wrote me the sweetest card.

Do you want to hear it? Yeah. First of all, look, it says YFT in big letters. It's so cute. And then it says, Brandy, just wanted to pass along a little note on your crazy busy tour. I have been a fan of YFT since the very beginning.

You and Wells have the best banter and make every episode so unique and entertaining. You are such a badass boss babe and do whatever you want and it is so inspiring to a 24 year old just starting out in the real world love jen how sweet is that so cute didn't say a whole lot about me but whatever it's fine this card is not addressed to you i know but like we're both the it was addressed to yft and i feel like i'm half of that but whatever it's fine she did say she's been listening since day one. That's pretty cool. Cool.

Thank you. Right. Okay. And then the other card, it's a little bit longer, so I might like paraphrase, but it's from Rebecca and Megan in Toronto. And they started out by saying, Brandy, you're one of our favorite things, but did you know Canadians spell favorite with a U? Yeah.

Super cool. I'm going to start spelling it that way. No, because you're not canadian but i could be yeah i guess okay um okay so i'm just gonna read the part about the yt so it says uh just when we thought this tour couldn't get any better you join it and it does you are such a bright spot in our week and we find ourselves constantly hitting our non-existent bells along with you and wells when we can stop laughing that is so cute she also dropped a little bit about diamond status content and stuff like that, which I really appreciated. But she was very sweet.

And I just like not that I was like actually having a really good day. But even just having a good day, like reading fan notes is just so great. Like it just it really means a lot. It's amazing to me that people listen to this show and are like into it. I know it makes me feel special. Because it's so dumb, this show. are like into it i know it makes me feel special because it's so dumb this show but i just want to tell them thank you and that i did read them and i reread them today and just wanted to give them a little shout out i know man we should at one point revisit when we

came up with this show the idea and like how it came to fruition like where we were what we were doing because it's silly it's so silly do you remember where we were not really wow i do we're at that mexican restaurant right there in midtown that you love the soup the name of it yeah it was what's that place that place that you love yeah mamacita and you were like i know you love the soup there oh it's so good yeah and you're like you're like you were like. And you were like, I know you love the soup there. It's so good. Yeah. And you were like, well, I was like, well, we need a premise, Brandy. I wasn't like that combative, but I was like, it's a podcast. We need a premise.

And you were like, but I just want to talk about like whatever I want to talk about. And I was like, okay, what? I didn't say that, yeah. You did. And I was like, okay, okay well then maybe the premise is that we just talk about what we want to talk about and you were like i love that idea and i was like okay but we need to hone it in a little bit more how about we just talk about things that we like and you were like even better like we only talk about our favorite things and you were like that's great

and i was like that's the name of the show that's how it came out oh i can't remember that full trip down memory lane yeah we took a picture we posted about it too and the caption the caption was like like figuring out ways to take over the world or something like that i do remember that yeah that was a cute pic anyways um i got some music you got some music but you go first you want me to go first? Sure. I mean, I will say that like, there's a lot of great songs out there right now, you know? Mm-hmm. But like... I've been in a valley

You ain't been up off that forest I can't hear it. Can't nobody tell me nothing Old Town Road? No. Can't nobody tell me I really like this Fruit Bats song. You know the band Fruit Bats? No.

All right. Well, this is a very Wells band, I would assume. You could call it that. Anyways, this song called The Bottom of It. And it's just one that keeps on popping up like in my Shazam and I don't know what it is about the way it's got like a little bit of a Beatles feel to it I feel like

I don't know what it is I was about to hear probably from identifying with the lyrics or from identifying with the melody but this fruit bat the bottom of the song just like gets me

feeling real good driving down the street arm out the window now that you wanted to be clearing in and down the street. Farm out the window. Oh man, it's so good. So yeah, fruit bats, the bottom of it,

digging on it. What do you got? Real quick. Just want to also recognize some YFTers that slid into my dm this weekend and told me how thankful they were that i introduced them to dermot kennedy because he's so freaking fantastic and i know he is and they got to go see him in seattle i had so many people text me be like i'm at dermot seattle show thank you for introducing him to us

and i wanted to be like go tell him that but pretty cool pretty cool that people are like finding music on here and actually going to see the artist in concert i really like that yeah yeah bruh so do you have a song for me okay well i have an entire album have you listened to khalid's new album no oh my gosh wells i've listened to it on repeat since friday like the whole thing it's so good and i've always liked kid, but never been like a massive Khalid fan or anything. This album's fantastic. He has the song on there with John Mayer. That would probably be my pick to play. And then also the song after that one is called Free Spirit.

And they're both just so good. The whole album's great. The one with John Mayer is called Outta My Head. I can't hear you. The song Self has been popping up a bunch in my release radar stuff. I like that one a lot. But yeah, Out of My Head with John Mayer is great, but it's very much John Mayer-y to me. That's why I love it.

Play a little bit of Free Spirit. I really like it too. Okay. He's such a good singer, man. I think I like that better than out of my head. Yeah. Not to be rude to John Mayer, your your Messiah. But I'm just saying like that. All right. So what's coming up for you, dude?

So I'm on a plane at 9 a.m. to fly to L.A. Doing some pre Coachella events this week and then going down to Palm Springs for the weekend. Oh, my God. You know, get ready for all the Ferris wheel content. I'm fine with that, but I have no desire to go to that at all. It sounds like a nightmare. It sounds like a lot of people pretending to be interested in music, but really interested in being seen, being interested in music.

Yep. To be honest, I go for the pool time because i need a tan all right i hear that girl i'm so pale i gotta get tan whatever um so yeah i'm doing that and then uh i'll be back i'm actually coming back a little early so i'll be back sunday so we can record in person live in studio yeah um and then i fly back to denver for the kb show in denver and then i'm coming back to la the last week of april too so you're gonna get a lot of me good i've missed your face oh thanks can we have uh mikhail huisman on the show no why not maybe when he visits but it's i'm gonna have to leave it up to him he He's just shy.
