We need to talk about
your brother's birthday party in a little bit.
It was so fun. Dude,
I got turnt. Same.
Turnt. I did too and I
never get turnt. You know that.
Yeah, I know. We were all
turnt. I know. You just want to start the show
then? Yeah. You or me?
Me.
Go.
Bros and hoes, you're listening to your favorite thing podcast with-
Wells and Brandy.
Okay, so your brother Brazen had a birthday party the other day.
Yes.
Who I never met, to be fair.
That's crazy.
I feel like of all the Cyrus's, he's probably going to end up being your favorite.
I know.
I ended up talking to him a bunch that night, and he's kind of like this indie, cool kid.
He was like, how old, 23?
24, just turned 24.
24.
Young kid.
His buddy he brought to bowling was wasted.
Of course, yeah.
And horrible at bowling.
I'm so aggressive at bowling.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So anyways, Brandy's brother Brazen was celebrating a birthday and you called me or you text me
and you're like, hey, I do love this.
You're like, hey, is Sarah still in town?
Well, because I wanted you and Sarah to come.
And I was like, oh, she left yesterday.
And you're like, oh.
And I was like, why?
Does this like rescind the invitation I'm about to get?
It kind of did though.
No, it did not.
Kind of.
Not at all.
So you're like, hey, it's my brother's birthday,
and we're all going bowling at Pinewood.
And I was like, okay, that sounds like fun,
but is it going to be awkward?
You always think things with my family are going to be awkward.
Can I be honest with you about Miley?
Sure.
She does this thing where she won't go up and say hello to you.
Because she's shy.
And I know that's hard for people to understand because she's Miley, but she's so shy.
I perceive that as don't fucking talk to me.
I know, but that's not what it is.
She just literally would never go up to somebody and just introduce herself or be the first one to say hi.
She's just not like that.
At this point, she's met me like five times.
I know. And she knows you and I are good friends. I know. She's just not like that. Yeah, but at this point, she's met me like five times. I know.
And she knows you and I are good friends.
I know.
She's just so socially awkward.
I mean, think about it.
The girl has never had to be socially normal ever since she was like 10.
So for the first 45 minutes of us bowling, I'm like,
Miley hates me and won't talk to me.
Oh my God.
And so finally I had enough.
But Craig loves you.
Yeah, Craig loves me.
Let me just go.
You don't understand.
Everyone doesn't understand.
I total humble bragged on social media after it.
I saw it.
I had to do it.
Come on.
It was such a fucking ridiculous night.
So let me just paint the picture.
And you almost didn't come.
I know I almost didn't because I felt like you were just, you really only wanted me to
bring Sarah there.
That's not true.
I just saw her on your story the day before, so I assumed that she was here and thought it would be fun for you guys to come.
And because Miley was like, we got there, and she was like, do we have friends coming?
Do we have friends?
And I was like, I've got some friends.
And she was like, let's invite them.
And I was like, okay.
And so that's why I texted you, and that's why I said, come be my friend.
So we get up there.
After like 45 minutes, finally, I go up to Miley, and I'm like, hey. And so that's why I text you. And that's why I said, come be my friend. So we get up there. After like 45 minutes, finally, I go up to Miley.
And I'm like, hey, we've met before.
I'm good friends with Brandy.
I awkwardly left your birthday party like two years ago, three years ago.
She doesn't remember that.
I just signed it.
But I'll never forget it.
Yeah, I know.
You'll never let me let it down.
No.
And she was like, oh, yeah, I totally remember you.
And then everything was fine.
Then we were friends.
She probably had, she remembered you the whole time.
She just was too embarrassed to like say hi.
Yeah.
Whatever.
She's, she's very, very shy.
I know that's like, it's like, doesn't make sense with her like, you know, like public
personality, but like she really is.
Yeah.
Well, that's good to know now.
And I feel like, I feel like we overcame some things.
Don't you remember at iHeart Festival when I took you, Dean, Ben and Peter into her room?
She like ran away.
And again, it seemed like-
She was embarrassed because of Peter.
Because she thinks he's so hot.
Yeah, everyone thinks Peter's so hot.
I know.
She legitimately ran away.
And then when I came back, she was like, what are you doing?
How could you bring all these hot guys in my room?
I'm so embarrassed.
I was like, just talk to them.
She's like, I can't.
I can't talk to them.
I know.
It's just so funny.
She's freaking out.
It's so funny that that's how she internalizes things.
Yeah.
That's how everyone is feeling around her.
I know.
You know?
Yeah.
I've been around enough celebrities at this point, even I'm like, shit, man.
I think Miley hates me.
Like, I don't know.
Oh, my gosh.
No.
She really doesn't at all.
She likes you a lot.
And then her fiance, Liam, was there, who is a very nice man who I've met before at
that party that I did leave early
and I realized
very early in the night
that Liam is a very good bowler.
He is pretty good.
Liam's like
good at everything.
Yeah, he's that guy.
It's annoying.
He's that guy.
At this point
Brazen hadn't shown up.
He didn't show up
to his own birthday party.
The dinner we had before
he was 45 minutes late too.
Yeah.
It's insane.
I have a feeling
he kind of wanted to do his own thing with his own friends for his birthday.
And then Miley made all these plans.
And because he's so precious and sweet, he felt obligated to do what Miley had planned.
But I think he was a little torn with going to the hipster bars in East Nashville with his buddies or the family hang.
Yeah, I get it.
It was a good compromise, too, because you're at Pinewood, which is kind of a hipstery.
It's like an upscale hipstery place.
Right.
So anyways, and then Liam's family is there.
I know.
The brother that is on Westworld.
His name's Luke.
Luke.
I never talked to him because he had his kids.
Yeah.
And then he kind of bailed early.
Yeah, he did.
He gypsy faded.
Didn't say bye to anyone.
But I was so upset because I want to be like, dude, oh my God.
That's Westworld.
Oh my God. I freaking love Westworld. I know. be like, dude, oh my God. That's Westworld. Oh my God.
I freaking love Westworld.
I know.
Except for this season.
I'm like,
what's going on?
I'm caught up and I can't.
Did you tell him
where you're like,
hey listen,
what's going on here?
No.
Are things going to get better?
What's going on?
No, I can't.
Because he's like a,
it seems like he's a big part of.
He could be.
He's not a huge part yet.
Like last episode I watched,
like last week,
he was like in a scene
and like didn't speak. So I feel like his role's like not huge, but yeah, he was in a scene and didn't speak. I feel like his
role's not huge yet, but it could
end up being big, which is good
for him. Everyone
in the family was there except for
Thor. His name's Chris.
So anyways, we start bowling
and I am a very
I think I'm a good bowler.
Well, you are. But you didn't know that. No. Bowling is so dumb. I suck at it, I think I'm a good bowler. Yeah. Well, you are.
Yeah, but you didn't know that.
No.
Bowling is so dumb.
I know.
And I suck at it.
I love this.
You came to like one of my part.
Oh, yeah.
And you wouldn't bowl.
Yeah, I usually will not bowl.
And then you were bowling because of Brazen
who wasn't even there yet.
Also, like,
I was two drinks in
when you showed up.
Yeah.
Two and a half.
And, I mean,
two drinks and I'm drunk. So I was also like, I'm drunk, let's bowl. Yeah. Yeah. Two and a half. And I mean, two drinks and I'm drunk.
So I was also like, I'm chocolate spilt.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then we were ordering shots.
I did not do any shots.
Yeah.
I cannot do that.
It was like sugary shots too.
So we start playing and I'm like, all right, the guy I got to beat is Liam.
Yeah.
Was Craig good?
Craig was pretty good.
Yeah.
We find that out later in the story.
Okay.
Sorry, I'm skipping ahead so i go spare
strike strike spare and then i go outside to get a jacket or something oh and then i come back and
the game has been erased and we've started a new game i'm like what is going on here i was killing
i was destroying this guy that's why they deleted it i was like who did this and then my was like i
did it and i was like okay sorry it's fine oh then Miley was like, I did it. And I was like, okay, sorry. You're like, it's fine.
Oh, you hate me. It's fine. Yeah. Oh, god, shit.
And then we started playing teams.
Uh-huh. I was on one team
with Miley and
Liam's dad,
Craig, who is the
greatest man I've ever met in my entire life.
Craig-o and I are
super tight. Craig-o, I'm
dead. And then it was you and Liam.
Kat.
Kat and Craig's wife.
Leone.
Leone.
Yeah.
Anyway, so then we start going at it, and I'm like, this is ridiculous because I had
started off so strong, and now I've got to come at it again.
But that time I was a little drunk, and usually my first game is the best, and then it starts
to just go downhill. Because as you get drunk, you can't... That's my problem, is I was like, a little drunk, and usually my first game is the best, and then it starts to just go downhill.
Because as you get drunk, that's my problem, is I was like, I'm drunk, and I can't make
the ball go straight.
Yeah.
You couldn't make it go straight when you were sober.
You're right.
We started playing teams.
Your team destroyed us, by the way.
How did that happen?
Because I'm terrible.
Well, I have the scorecard still.
Leonie can't have been good.
Because Brazen's friend. Oh, Blair was on
your team. Blair was on my team and he just didn't
give two shits. No. He just like
wanted to like cause a scene. Yeah.
I just don't understand those guys that like
try to spin it. Yeah. But like
they can't do it so they just throw gutter balls the
entire time. He was like throwing the ball like
into the floor. So hard.
It was embarrassing.
I'm embarrassed. Anyways, you guys did beat us.
Well, it wasn't thanks to me.
My score was 32.
Yeah.
My eyes were pretty bad, too.
I was actually one point above her.
Yeah, that's right.
She was 31, I think.
I was 32.
It was like me and Craig O.
I was like, dude, I need something out of you, buddy.
And then Liam scored like a 168.
Oh, it's so good.
I rolled a 180.
What?
Oh, I cared about it.
I was like, oh, it is B2.
How do you hit 180 and I hit 32?
I was killing it, man.
I was in it.
I'll tell you one thing I was kind of surprised about.
What's that?
No one messed with us.
I know.
It was great.
It was a very, there was a lot of star power that was there that night and no one messed
with us.
I know.
I was a little surprised, but like so glad.
Yeah. I wonder if Pinewood was like. Maybe. It was also a night and no one messed with us. I know. I was a little surprised, but like so glad. Yeah.
I wonder if Pinewood was like-
Maybe.
It was also a Wednesday and like chill and not very crowded.
Still.
But yeah, I know.
It was nice.
Not one like selfie picture was taken, I don't think.
No.
And I only saw one creepy photo surface from our dinner that someone took.
Oh, really?
From far away.
And I was like, oh boy.
But no one came up to us at dinner either.
Where'd you guys go?
I'll take you back.
Taco Mamasita.
Some middle-aged woman came up and brought Miley a shot of tequila.
And Miley was like, I don't really want it.
And she was like, well, just set it here.
And she was like, but I'm not going to drink it.
It was really awkward.
Anyways, thank you for inviting me.
I had a really good, I had a great time.
I'm so glad you came.
I know.
It was really fun.
I really enjoy your family had a great time. I'm so glad you came. I know. It was really fun. I really enjoy your family.
It was fun.
Can we talk about the one thing that was really funny that happened during that night?
I don't even know if you remember.
I don't know.
Molly goes, why aren't you guys dating?
Oh, I was getting, well, I almost said this earlier.
You thought she hated you in the beginning, and then by the end of the night, she was
like trying to get us to get together.
Yeah, and then we were like, we went on a date, two dates, it didn't work, you know? Yeah, I know. But I also was like, also Wells us to get together yeah and then we were like we went on a date two days it didn't work yeah i know but i also was like also wells is like married pretty

And then I started telling her about my diet
because she's vegan.
Yeah, strict.
So is Liam.
Yeah, and I was like,
I'm doing keto.
I'm doing the opposite.
I'm eating all the meat.
I can't believe you're doing that.
Oh, P.S.
I'm on a diet too
and I made you muffins.
They're healthy muffins.
I know, but are they carbs in it?
Is there flour?
Is there wheat?
It's oat flour.
Gluten free.
It's gluten free.
All right, I'll try one.
Thank you. That's very nice of you. I just thought you'd like to have free. It's gluten free. All right. I'll try one. Thank you.
That's very nice of you.
I just thought you'd like to have some.
They're really good.
Why are you looking at me like this?
I feel like this is like-
Because I can't believe you're going to eat it.
They're snickerdoodle muffins and there's only like four things in it.
It's like-
Is there sugar?
No.
No sugar at all.
The only sugar that's in it would be like put a banana in it and there's like natural
sugars in the banana and cinnamon, but there's no sugar on cinnamon, but it's's sweet but like that's what's so cool about everything i've made on this diet
is there's no added sugars in anything and all that's like really good and i like love sweet
stuff and i'm surprised by how like sweet everything tastes yeah the reason why i started
this diet have you seen the movie um magic pill, but somebody was just telling me about this.
The Magic Pill.
It might have been Ben because remember I told you I thought Ben took something and it made him sick when he was trying to do the keto diet.
So I watched it.
Regardless if you want to do the diet or not, it's an interesting concept, right?
Like over the eons, the evolutionary history of humans, we've only really eaten complex carbohydrates carbohydrates in a very short window of that evolutionary history, right?
It wasn't until the industrial age until we started really turning wheat into bread and all that kind of stuff.
Before, when we were hunter-gatherers, it was a lot of meat and vegetables and nuts, and that's what it was.
So does it kind of take you back to that? That's the idea is that you only eat meat and like vegetables,
no like root vegetables and very little fruit because there's like a lot of sugar.
No root vegetables?
Yeah, so no potatoes.
You can have carrots?
No, you can have carrots, but like no potatoes and all that kind of stuff.
What I found interesting about it was what happens is that that your your body feeds on i'm gonna butcher
this but right now your body because you're not in doing keto your body is using the carbohydrates
the complex sugars the glucose to fuel you if you stop eating those and those go away then your body
is like well what do we use for fuel and then then it starts using only fat. So you're supposed to eat a lot of fat.
And so the idea is that if your body is running on that fuel, it's a much cleaner fuel for your body.
Makes sense.
And it makes your mind much clearer.
It's called ketosis or something like that.
What was interesting about this whole thing, and this is a long diatribe, whether you want to do the diet or not,
is they had a bunch of kids who had bad Asperger's or had really like bad
on the autistic scale.
Okay.
And they made them change their diets.
So the kids in this study, like autistic kids
are like already kind of hard, like nailed down.
And when you're like, you can't eat like mac and cheese
every night, they freak out, right?
And like, it was amazing.
Like these, they're filming these kids,
these kids like, you know, like can't stop moving and like freaking out. like these they're filming these kids these kids like you
know like can't stop moving and like freaking out don't won't make eye contact you won't talk
all this stuff and so then it goes like they make these kids do this and the kids hate it
and then like after like three weeks the kids are no longer like shaking looking them straight in
the eye having conversations conversations, limited,
but like it's night and day and they're like, this is all diet.
And like the medication that they were on, they're like, we're not even doing the medication.
I'm like the craziest.
What does that mean?
I don't really know.
I think.
To me that sounds like something we're eating is causing our kids to be born with autism.
Maybe so.
Or we're being born with autism and like our food isn't helping.
I don't know.
Here's the thing.
It's a documentary, obviously.
It's a documentary pro-keto.
So they're, you know, pick and choosing stories that prove the point.
I was like, wow, that makes a lot of sense.
I don't think it's a sustainable diet because it's like really bad for your liver if you're eating that much fat, you know.
But I will say this. Where do you get the fat from all the all the meat yeah and then like avocados and stuff and like olive oil just watch it just so you can be like well i
don't know yeah that's crazy but i will watch like netflix yeah it's on netflix i will say this though
so i don't know if people really know this but i've had stomach problems for a long time you have
yeah i don't know if you remember on the bachelor, I told that story of the worst threesome I
ever had, but really it was about getting a colonoscopy.
Oh, yeah.
That's right.
It's a funny joke, right?
Yeah.
So the doc's got a camera on my ass, and the nurse's got her hand on my stomach, and I
say, doc, this is the worst threesome I've ever had.
That was a punchline.
Anyways.
Oh, my God.
stomach and I say, doc, this is the worst threesome I've ever had.
That was a punchline.
Anyways.
Oh my God.
I realize that sometimes you say things that are really funny that I don't process fully because my mind has moved on to whatever I'm going to say.
And then when I listen to our podcast back, I'm like, dang, that was funny.
And I didn't give him the satisfaction of how freaking funny it was.
Like I was listening back to last week's and I said something about, we were talking about
looking cool and you were like, I feel like I don't look cool very often. And I was like, I was listening back to last week's, and I said something about we were talking about looking cool, and you were like,
I feel like I don't look cool very often. And I was like, I feel like
you have lately. And you said, yeah,
it's because it's sexually transmitted. And I just kept
going and didn't hear what you
said. And when I listened back, I was like, that's
freaking funny. Okay, that got
an attention. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Everyone does that, though. Everyone's like, so
like, trying to figure out what they're going to say next.
I know, but like, I feel like I owed you letting you know that that was funny.
Even though I didn't laugh at you at the time.
Don't worry.
Like if you don't laugh at my jokes, I will still laugh at them.
If you ever hear me laughing and you're like, why is he laughing?
It's because I thought I said something funny.
And no one else heard it.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
Anyways, I've had some problems for a long time.
And I went out and had tests and everything done, samples taken, all that kind of stuff, and no one's ever been able to figure out what's wrong with me.
Have you tried gluten-free stuff and all that?
No.
Why are you trying that?
The keto diet's no gluten.
Oh, it's gluten-free?
I did it for freaking two days, and I had the first good poop I've had in years.
What do you mean?
You don't poop on the reg?
I do, but it's not fulfilling.
Not good ones?
Wow.
Or non-fulfilling, I guess.
Unfulfilling.
Unfulfilling.
It's terrible.
Is this too gross, the podcast?
I don't know.
I just did it and I was like, and then I told my family and they were like, you've done
it for a day and a half.
This is ridiculous.
And I was like, yeah, you're right, but I don't know.
But if you already feel a difference, that might mean something.
You might need to be a little gluten freer.
And I make so much fun of people like that.
I'm like, oh yeah, gluten, it's dangerous.
I know.
But I don't know.
Maybe that's been my problem is that I'm allergic to that.
So now I want to do one of those tests.
Have you seen those tests that they do?
Yeah, how accurate are they though?
I don't know.
I feel like the way to really test it is to remove it from your diet and see if it's good.
And just check it out, yeah.
We'll see.
Because I started doing the keto thing and I'm like, one, it's for people that need to
lose a lot of weight.
It is.
Like you will lose, even I saw-
Even though you're eating all that fat?
Oh yeah.
It charts.
Dude, I, first of all, I'm pretty thin already.
After day three, I'd lost five pounds.
What?
How?
And I was like, whoa.
And I was like, I don't want to lose this much weight.
Yeah.
That's not the point of this. So I'm thinking I gotta make a compromise
where I'm just like, I can still eat carbs,
but like, just try to
the bread. And it was so
funny. So then, after your bowling thing,
I was hungover. Oh, same.
And I was like, dying. Yeah.
And I was like, I need a sandwich. So I went and got a Jimmy John's
sandwich. Yeah, I did it. And I totally broke down.
Totally broke down. Sorry. And the next day, stomach did it. And I totally broke down. Totally broke down.
And the next day, stomach.
No.
Wrecked.
No.
Wrecked. You're totally gluten intolerant.
I know.
You really are.
Here's what I've discovered.
This diet I'm on isn't gluten.
It has nothing to do with that.
But it's just, I've never been a cook.
Even growing up, my parents didn't cook.
We ate out.
We ate fast food my whole life.
So I've just been programmed to think I can't cook. Even growing up, my parents didn't cook. We ate out. We ate fast food my whole life. So I've just
been programmed to think
I can't cook and I don't know
how. But truthfully, if I just try,
I'm actually kind of good at it.
I've just never attempted it.
You're a creative person and cooking is
an artistic endeavor.
Also, you just follow the directions. It's not
hard.
I'm also really good at taking direction and they
tell you exactly what to do. And by artistic
endeavor, I mean paint by numbers.
Yes, I have a full book of recipes.
But everything I've made,
I've made with oat flour and almond
meal, which is gluten-free.
There's no wheat. And so I feel like as long as you
can make food at home, it's actually
probably pretty easy to eat gluten-free.
Totally. Fast food especially, that's all
it is. Yeah, it's pure gluten.
And that's why you know you're like,
it can't be that great for you if
it's so cheap and easy to
mass produce. Yeah, you're right.
But what's really, it is
expensive. That's the problem with the country.
And that's why heart disease is
the number one killer in this country is because
we're effectively just like killing ourselves.
Yeah.
Got dark.
I know.
But what was really interesting about that last thing on that magic pill thing, there's this weird thing that we do with our livestock where we eat, we feed them corn.
And that's not what cows eat.
No.
We make them eat corn because it fattens them up, which is like what we do to ourselves with this, like all the carbohydrates that we eat. No. We make the meat corn because it fattens them up, which is like what we do to ourselves with this, like all the
carbohydrates that we eat. And so they're like,
you should really eat grass-fed beef,
which totally, one because I want to
if I'm going to eat a cow, I would
like to know that I had like a cool life that I got to
like run around the grass. Like a free range
cow. Is that a thing? I know it is for chickens.
Yeah. What's funny about it is that
effectively you're still, if
you're feeding the cow the thing that you're trying not to eat, you're still eating it.
100%.
It's just so interesting.
I know.
I don't know.
Everybody does everything in America because it's cheap.
I know.
And that's why animals are treated inhumanely is because it's cheaper and easier to not.
In this movie, there's this dope ass farmer who is going back to grassland farming.
Oh, yeah.
It's like back in the day, like the Great Plains,
it was all those buffalo that were there.
Right.
But here, now land is so expensive,
people can't afford to have all their cattle on grass.
I know.
So this guy does it, and he explains how it's totally sustainable
because what the cows do is they eat the top layer
of the grass and it makes it so the grass
has to grow back up
so they don't have to pay for food ever.
There's no fee that they pay. Anyways, it's super
interesting. I've moved on way
too much on this. I love it.
I'm going to watch it. I'd like you to.
I'm a fan. Alright, new favorite thing
right now is this Quip toothbrush.
Who doesn't love clean teeth? Yeah, exactly.
But I, totally.
Everybody loves clean teeth. I know, it's such
a dork though. Like, I like the look
of the toothbrush. You do.
Yeah, it's an electric toothbrush, but
it's like the size of a normal toothbrush.
And it's like metallic looking.
It's kind of dope. Like futuristic looking, if you will.
Yes! It's like, if I were living
in the future, this is what my toothbrush would look like.
It's incredible.
And also because it's slim, small, and compact, it's easy to travel with, which is great because we both are on the go all the time.
The Quip toothbrush starts at just $25.

Are we going to talk about some favorite new music?
Well, we did a lot of that in the last episode.
I know, I liked it.
We got to at least play Noah's new song a little.
Okay.
It's called Team.
It's really cute.
Fun fact, the album artwork, or the single artwork, I guess, is my grandma and her husband
way back in the day.
She just looks so young.
It's so crazy.
And her husband, his name's Glenn Moore, and that's actually who I'm named after.
My middle name is Glenn, and he died the year I was born.
And so Noah found this old photo of them, and it's her single artwork.
It's really cute.
It's with that guy.
He goes by Max.
Yeah. I forgot you knew nothing about pop that guy. He goes by Max. Yeah.
I forgot you knew nothing about like pop music.
I know Max.
Max and Nash.
Yeah.
Lights down low.
Come on.
Look at me.
You think that I'm trying to fight, yeah.
But I'll always be on your side, yeah.
Oh, oh, oh.
You know me.
Why you always on the fence then?
Oh.
Making me feel like you're fenced in.
Oh, oh, oh.
How many times do I have to convince you
that I'll always be on your team?
You run in your mouth and you're talking about me, but things aren't always what they seem.
So whenever you're losing, I'll celebrate you.
Dope.
It's cool, right?
Do you know how they layered those vocals?
Oh, I love the octaves.
Yeah, so is it them doing a different octave?
Cute, right?
Very nice.
It's so sweet for Noah.
Most of her stuff is so badass, you know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think that's kind of nice to hear her put out something super sweet.
I love Noah.
I think she's awesome.
Isn't she the cutest?
Why wasn't she on tour?
Is that why she wasn't at the bowling thing?
She's not on tour.
She's just working so much.
She just couldn't get out of LA.
She'll be here next week, though.
She's going to Greece with me.
She decided last minute that her and Tanner want to go.
I told you this.
I'm going to Greece for my birthday.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's where I want to go so badly. I've never been. I've been trying to convince Sarah to like. You should go. I know. I think I'm going to Greece for my birthday Yeah, yeah, yeah That's where I want to go so badly
I've been trying to convince Sarah to like
I think I'm going to do it
I'm excited, we tried to do it last year
Me and some friends and we just were all too busy
And so this, I remember last year
My birthday thinking, like don't get me wrong
My birthday was fine last year but I was like
I do not want to be in Nashville, Tennessee
On my freaking birthday next year, I'm going to do something really cool
I have a really sad story with my birthday.
Finish yours, though.
Why?
Just finish yours.
Okay, well, I was going to say, so my mom's birthday is actually Sunday.
I'm going back to L.A. for it.
So we're doing this, like, birthday trip, and she's taking a friend,
and I have two friends from L.A. going, and then Noah and Tanner are going, too.
So Noah will be here next week, and then we leave on the 23rd.
Nice.
I'm so pumped.
God, I'm jealous of you.
What's your sad story?
Well, I really shouldn't be sad because it was
really cool and I feel bad that
no one hit you up. About
the one that just happened? Yeah. No, they
did hit me up. I just was in LA.
The thing about surprise birthday parties is you can't
tell them who you should invite. No,
Danielle hit me up about it.
But it was Cinco de Mayo and that's when I did that
wedding in LA. Got it.
Anyways, that was really nice.
I've never had a surprise party.
I'm such a dipshit.
You haven't?
No, and I'm such a dipshit.
I had no idea.
That's amazing.
So they were like, this is-
Wait, when's your actual birthday?
May 16th.
Yeah, this was an early birthday party.
Yeah, that's how they got me.
Yeah.
I should tell the story.
Are you a Gemini or a Taurus?
I'm a Taurus.
You're on the cusp though, aren't you?
I think the 20th and 21st is where it breaks off.
I don't know what that means.
Just keep going.
You and Sarah need to talk about all this weird astrology shit.
What is she?
She's November, so whatever that is.
Sag?
Late November or early?
24th.
Oh, Miley's the 23rd.
Really?
Sarah's a Sag.
That's interesting.
Can you not say it like that?
Sagittarius. Sounds like you's a Sag. That's interesting. Can you not say it like that? Sagittarius.
Sounds like you're saying Vag.
I wasn't. Sagittarius.
Oh, I can't wait to talk to her about this. I actually get along with Sages really well.
Yeah, she also collects rocks and
Rocks? Not really rocks.
They're like crystals
and stuff. That's different.
They are rocks, but she's big
into it. That's kind of cool. I want to hear
about it. Okay, why was your birthday party
sad? No, that's not the sad part.
Okay, so it was really funny.
My good friend, Daniel
Ellsworth, his wife,
it was her birthday. And he had texted me
being like, hey man, we're having a surprise
birthday party for Beth. I know Sarah
is in town. Beth and Sarah are now friends.
Love for you guys to stop by.
I didn't respond to it
because I had been offered tickets to the Preds game.
Oh.
And so I'm sitting there thinking like,
okay,
and so I'm like,
man,
I want to go to the,
I want to see the Preds play.
And so I was like,
hey,
Sarah,
I got offered Preds tickets.
And she was like,
well,
what about Beth's party?
And I was like,
well,
we can go later.
I don't know.
I was like,
this is like the Preds. And she was like, I don't know. And I was like, Sarah, like, this is like, I, what about Beth's party? And I was like, well, we can go later. I don't know. I was like, this is like the Preds.
And she was like, I don't know.
And I was like, Sarah, like, this is like, I know you don't live here, but like, it's a big deal.
This is like the Lakers court side in the playoffs, you know?
And she was like, I'd rather go to Beth's party.
I'm like, what?
That's very nice of you.
I'm like, what?
Really?
So anyway, so I was like.
So you gave them up?
Yeah, I gave them up.
Wow.
And like, you know, like when you're in a relationship, sometimes you're just like, some battles you don't need to fight.
Right.
Like, whatever.
This is, well, yeah.
Who cares?
And we're going to have fun no matter what.
So I was like, okay.
But I definitely was like, huh.
Okay.
This does not feel right.
It didn't feel right.
So then I'm like, well, we should get Beth a present.
And she's like, yeah.
And I'm like, okay.
So we went and like got her like earrings or yeah. And I'm like, okay. So we went and got her earrings or something.
I'm wrapping it up beforehand.
And Sarah's like, let me put the present in my bag when we go over there.
And I'm like, okay.
And the surprise birthday party, we were supposed to be there.
It was a surprise birthday party for somebody else, right?
We were supposed to be there at 8.20.
So Sarah sometimes can be late.
And I was like, listen. Very Sagittarius late. And I was like, listen.
Very Sagittarius-like.
Yeah.
And I was like, listen, I don't want to be the late people.
I don't want to be the one that ruins the thing, you know?
Yeah.
Like, please, let's just, so I was like, we got to leave here at like 8.
It's like 10 minutes away, but I was like, we got to leave here at 8.
So like right before we're about to leave, she's like, I had asked her, I was like, do
you want to drink anything tonight? Like, so I've asked her I was like Do you want to drink Anything tonight
Like so I've got some beers
But if you want to drink
Something we need to go
Get some like rosettes
For drinks
And she's like
No no no no
And then right before we leave
She's like
You know what
We should get some rosette
And I'm like
We are on a time crunch here lady
Dang it
This is why I asked you
This half an hour ago
Yes
And so she's like
Slow playing me
And I'm like
I'm like
So I'm like
A little wound up
So I'm like
We could have gone to the friends game.
We're going to ruin this fucking party.
Like shit.
Anyways, then I walk in, of course.
I see like my mother and like Evan and Carly.
And I'm like, what is happening?
And it was a really wonderful experience.
It looked fun.
And I wish you were there.
Me too.
We were doing karaoke.
That sounds awesome.
I've never had a surprise birthday party.
If you've never had a surprise birthday party,
you should tell the loved ones around you
that you would like to have one. Do you think?
Yes. I've never had one either.
I'll tell you why. I don't know. It makes you feel
so loved. Does it?
If you're going
to a party where you know people,
if you know about it, then you're like,
you expect
to feel liked that day. But if you're just a normal day, you're just walking into a party and you're like, well, I expect, like, they, you know, you expect to feel, like,
liked that day.
But if you're just, like, a normal day, you're just, like, walking into a party, and you're like, oh, everyone likes me.
So it was the other girl's birthday party, too?
Yes!
So I was like, Beth, I'm so sorry.
I'm, like, ruining your birthday.
Oh, my gosh.
I was like, here's a gift we got you.
That's funny.
But the reason why I'm sad, I didn't know the surprise,
but I probably didn't think what was going on.
And so every year for my birthday, we go to a hangout fest.
Oh, yeah.
I go with my brother, and I told Sarah, she was like,
what do you want for your birthday?
And I was like, I go to a hangout fest every year with my brother.
We go fishing, and we go to listen to music,
and I really want you to go.
And she was like, no problem there.
She had booked her ticket.
I had booked her ticket.
We were on the same flight back, everything.
And she called me today, and she was like.
Can't go.
Because she about to start working on a movie.
I know.
And they were like, hey.
She was like, the movie found out that I was going.
And like, with insurance, they're like, you can't go.
Oh, no.
I was like, oh, man.
That's so dumb.
Insurance?
What could possibly happen?
I know.
Exactly.
Like, you get a tan?
Yeah, then her character might not be tan.
Yeah, that's true.
It's fair, actually.
So anyways, I'm sad about that because I wanted to experience that with her.
But whatever.
It's okay.
It's fine.
Oh, Wellesley.
I don't know.
My least favorite thing today.
Oh, no.
You know what my other least favorite thing today is?
What's that?
I don't even want to like...
This is kind of like a very downer...
Podcast.
A little bit, but...
Found out today that the lead singer of one of my favorite bands...
I know Brian Rabbit.
Passed away.
I know.
So sad.
And like...
I don't know.
He's obviously suffering from depression.
So sad.
Can we just play a little bit of this?
Oh, how it hardens. What's the song calledens And it numbs
The rest of me is a version of mine
Built to collapse and crumb
And if I hadn't come down
To the coast to disappear
I may have died in the landslide Of rocks and hopes and fears So I swim My favorite song of theirs is called Get Out.
Yeah.
You know that one?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wood Piles Gray, Old Fashioned Gray.
I love the name of their last album, Painting of a Panic Attack.
It's a great album title.
Anyways, I don't even know if I said it,
but it's a band called Frightened Rabbit.
I love that band.
And they're this cool Irish or Scottish band.
And anyways, the lead singer is named Scott Hutchinson.
He passed away.
And it's just a bummer because a lot of bands I like a lot,
when they come out with new music, I'm like, ah, get to it.
But every time new Frightened Rabbit shit came out, I was like, fuck yes. Yeah. And
that's not going to happen for me anymore. Oh, Wells, I'm sorry. But one of my favorite
bands of all time. I like them too. Yeah, they're great. Yeah. Really cool. I know.
Very cool. Continuing on the music train. Have you heard the new John Mayer song? They
were doing like a live interview with him. Yeah, on Beat 1 or whatever.
Yes.
I am obsessed with him.
I just think he is just the greatest thing that's ever happened.
What's the name of the song?
New Light.
It's definitely like, it's no slow dancing in a burning room or anything, okay?
Like, it's not mind-blowing, but I just love him and I do like the song.
It's just like easy listening, you know?
I feel like John's in a period of life
where he's just really like,
just existing and like living in like the moment
of like what's happening now.
That was such a great intro hitting the post. We'll see you next time. I love the drums in this.
It's so driving.
I feel like this is the happiest John Mayer could ever possibly be.
Like, this is the happiest sound you'll ever hear from him.
I just wanna sit and look at you
Yeah.
You know?
What do you love the most about John?
His voice, his writing, or his guitar playing?
His writing.
Hands down.
Yeah.
His songwriting is insane. I just like... Or his Twitter writing. Hands down. Yeah. His songwriting is insane.
I just like... Or his Twitter feed.
That too.
I'm like ruining an emo for a second.
I just like... First of all, I took the Enneagram
test if you were taking it. Yeah, yeah. We were talking about that.
We were talking about that. So I'm a nine
and like nines don't feel
very well. They like
suppress feelings just because
they like to be like easy going and steady and just
whatever. When something really makes
me feel, I know that it's like
damn, like it's gotta be
good if it makes me want to cry. You know what I mean?
Because I just like, it takes a lot to make
me really like feel that deeply and he
does every time. Yeah.
I was listening to that interview with him
and it was so cool
because he was talking about how he was getting super into like messing with beats.
And he was like getting into that world and how he was using instead of like a drum machine, he was plugging in his guitar.
Interesting.
You know, and like being able to do that using his guitar in like, I'm going to butcher what he was doing because I really can't understand it.
But he was talking about that and I was like, oh, John's a genius.
I got it.
He really truly is.
It's insane.
He's such a dork and so weird, but he is a genius.
My boss has a great story about John Mayer when he was, I think he was working in Birmingham.
And so John's from Atlanta, right?
He's not from there, but he did live there for a long time.
So before he...
Why, George, why? Yeah, there you go.
So before he broke,
he went around to every program director
in the South and was like, here's my record.
And so he went to see
my boss and he gave
the record. My boss was like, this is
really, really great. Which record?
Room for Squares? It might have been
before that. And he's like,
my boss was like, what have you been doing?
And he was like, literally, I have been not going out.
I have sat in my room every single day and practiced my guitar.
That is all I've done.
And he was like, why?
Why aren't you going out and doing things that a kid does?
And he was like, it's okay that I don't get laid now because I'll get laid later when
all this works.
And he was freaking right.
Yeah. Because his Rolodex is deep.
Deep.
Deep.
Mega deep. Oh my gosh. Fun fact, he's from Bridgeport, Connecticut. Just Googled it.
Okay. But he did live in Atlanta, I think, or Georgia or something like that.
Yeah, absolutely. That's hilarious.
I know, man.
He has no type. His Rolodex spans so many different types of women, it's insane.
Let's look it up.
Like, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry.
Like, he has no type.
It's crazy.
I think he just likes women.
Yeah.
Nothing wrong with that, John.
No, I'm like here for it.
Katy Perry, Renee Zellweger.
That's what I'm telling you.
Like, it's crazy.
Taylor Swift, Kim K? That can't be true. That's what I'm telling you. Like, it's crazy. Taylor Swift.
Kim K?
That can't be true.
Rumor to have dated in 2010.
I'd believe it, actually.
Rena Hammer.
I don't know who that is.
Shalina Marie.
Jennifer Aniston.
Ooh, I remember that.
Minka Kelly.
Uh-huh.
Ooh, she's cute.
Jessica Simpson.
Shit, man.
I forgot about that one.
Oh, my gosh.
Rona Mitra.
Ooh, she's hot. Yeah. Jennifer Love Hewitt. Jennifer Love Hewitt forgot about that one. Oh my gosh. Rona Mitra. Ooh, she's hot.
Jennifer Love Hewitt.
Jennifer Love Hewitt follows me on Instagram and talks to me a lot.
Interesting.
I remember when they dated.
She thinks that Sarah and I are super cute.
Vanessa Carlton. What?
Get it, John. His type just
knows no bounds.
It's awesome. Just like his music.
Makes me think I have a chance.
You know?
I have no chance. It's fine. His dick is just
like his guitar playing.
It knows no bounds.
It can't be tied down.
It can't be tamed.
John Mayer's dick cannot
be tamed.
Oh god.
That's funny. I hope someone else thinks we're funny God. That's funny.
I hope someone else thinks we're funny.
That shit was funny.
So I saw that they had put out
a list of the most popular baby
names. Oh, I saw you post about
this. Uh-huh.
Wells is up there.
Names that increased in popularity
from 2016
to 2017, coming in at number one.
Wells.
Wells.
That's insane.
That has to be because of you.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't know another Wells.
Yeah, I know.
In the article, it says it's attributed to-
Stop it.
Yeah, here, I'll read it to you.
It says you?
You know it's number one, Liam.
Oh, interesting.
Ensley was the fastest riser on the girls list.
I like that name.
Yeah, moving 1,400 points.
And on the boys list, Wells jumped from number 1,419 to 915,
likely getting a boost from a particular contestant on the Bats.
That is freaking insane.
That's insane.
I have a lot of people slide in my DMs being like,
hey, I think I might name my kid Wells.
Yeah.
What do you think about that?
And you're like, yeah, you should.
Well, I'm always honest about it, actually.
I say when I was a child, I hated it because it made me different.
Oh, you didn't like being different?
No, and now that I'm older, I love it because of what I hated about it in the beginning.
Because it makes you different.
Yeah.
Uh-huh. Interesting. My sister named
her son Wells, which,
poor kid.
But I always wanted to have
a little girl name her
Wells. That would be cute. I think a Wells is a great
girl name. I do too.
I like boy names for girls
though. I do too. It's like one of my favorite.
Yeah, I'm into that. Little trends.
I just thought that was funny.
That is funny.
The tweet thread about that was really funny.
Was it Elan that was, or Unglert, Highland Adams, or whatever that came from?
I wrote, it's been brought to my attention that my name has increased in popularity more
than anyone else's in the past year.
Dean said something about it.
Yeah, I blame Chris Harrison and Elan Gale for this.
I'm truly sorry.
And then, what did Elan say? El this. I'm truly sorry. And then,
what did Elan say? Elan's shit was the funniest.
I can't wait to meet him someday.
I can't believe you haven't. I know.
Well, Dean wrote, congrats, very proud of you.
It's like, alright, Dean. And then I wrote, I can't wait to name my first boar
Unglert and start this amazing trend,
because his last name is Unglert. And then
Sarah chimes in, don't get me wrong,
all for this trend, but no. And then Elan wrote, Unglert Highlert. And then Sarah chimes in, don't get me wrong, all for this trend, but no.
And then Alon wrote, Unglert Highland Adams.
And then Sarah said, still, yeah, no.
And then Dean said, can we work out a deal?
I'll name my firstborn Highland Adams Unglert.
Oh my gosh.
Anyways, Alon's original response was was I weep for our nation
that's a great thread
did you know that Vanessa is now
partners with Dean on his podcast
yeah I've been trying to figure this out
what do you mean
because I see Jared's on it a lot
yeah I think they talked about all three of them doing it
I love Vanessa so much by the way
we spent the whole stagecoach weekend together she's awesome my confusion is that at the end of this month it, but I don't, I love Vanessa so much, by the way. We spent the whole stagecoach weekend together.
Yeah.
She's awesome.
My confusion is that
at the end of this month,
she's moving back to Montreal.
Yeah.
So I don't know how she's gonna be
like a permanent guest
on this podcast, but.
I'll probably cut this,
but here's what I think.
I think that the podcast
does really well.
I don't think Dean wants to do it.
I don't either.
I think he's just like,
what am I doing?
I know.
Like,
he hates the name of it.
I would hate it too.
You know what I mean? Like, I have this show where I'm like, I am I doing? I know. He hates the name of it. I would hate it too. You know what I mean?
Like I have this show where I'm like, I'm shitty at this thing that everyone knows me for.
I know.
He should have never agreed to do that.
Yeah.
Can I just say, I'm just tired of the Bachelor Bachelor podcast.
I know.
But it's like getting worse and worse.
I know.
And I can't wait for the next show to start and there's going to be more of them.
I get it, I guess.
But I'm just like, okay, I'm tired of it.
I know.
I don't know.
Yeah.
That's why I like our show because we don't really talk about that.
Yeah, when it's on TV, we'll talk about it.
Hell yeah.
Speaking of the new season that's about to come on, I met Colton.
Oh, yeah. That was the one that everyone said about to come on, I met Colton. Oh, yeah.
That was the one that everyone said looked like me, the banjo player.
I don't know if he plays the banjo, but he looks nothing like you.
But he's so nice.
He came to the wedding that I was at this last weekend with Dean and Ben and everyone.
Yeah.
He's so sweet.
Oh, wait, no.
Great guy.
Big fan.
This guy's a big guy.
He played football and then got injured.
No, the kid that was playing the banjo was like
Oh, I do remember seeing him
on like a promo or something. Yeah, they did it
like the night they announced her. Yeah.
Oh, anyway, so Colton's cool? So nice.
Really great. It's gonna be so weird
doing Paradise this year because I don't know
these people. I feel like he'll probably go.
Yeah, of course. Everyone wants to
go. Do they really? Yeah.
Interesting. It's now become like everyone's begging to do it.
That's insane.
Yeah.
Where it used to, like when I went on.
Everyone was like.
Everyone was like, hell no.
Really?
Yeah.
And isn't that interesting?
After the last season was the one that had the big scandal, you would think that would
scare people away from it, and now everyone wants on it.
Oh, I know.
That is so interesting to me.
I don't know.
Are we saying our farewells on this episode?
Farewells?
Are we going to do that?
We don't have to do it right now, but are we going to do that?
Well.
Because you're about to, when do you leave?
June 1st.
But don't you leave before then?
Yeah, so I'm going to Hangout Fest, and then I'm flying to LA to take a bartending class.
And then straight to Paradise.
And then straight to Paradise. And then straight to paradise.
And I'm there for a month.
For a while.
Yeah.
So I can give you the recording device.
You can do it.
Or I can take it with me and do like one with Elan.
That might be interesting.
Might be fun.
I don't know if I would, if he would be like, yeah, I got an hour to do your podcast.
I don't know.
You've got a month, like 20 minutes.
I know.
You should take it.
I can totally take it and do it there.
Do you want to do that? I think you should take it
and have it as an option. I wonder if I can take
it and then plug you in
on a phone call. If nothing else,
I think the backup plan is like,
this is just a good time for our first hiatus ever.
But I think you should take it so you have the option.
Well, I think then we should say that we're going to
take like a month break, basically.
A little over a month break.
It'll be good timing too, though, because when we come back, Paradise will be about to start airing.
Okay.
So I'll have some shit to like tease, I guess.
Yeah.
So after going to see Sarah's dad in the Harry Potter thing and realizing I have never really seen the movies.
I haven't really either. Or read the books.
Yeah, same. I started to read the books.
People love them. Do you love it?
I love them. They are phenomenal books.
They are kids books
but not really kids books.
So I read the first and the second one.
Sorcerer's Stone and
Yeah, man.
When you say read
I listen to them on tape
That's how I absorb information
I love that about you Wells
I need you to still
be okay with that
I'm great with it
Here's my thing about
Harry Potter though
Every year
he's gonna have to
fucking fight Voldemort
Every year
Is that the deal?
The first two books
he's gotta fight this motherfucker
It's ridiculous.
You'd think that he'd get like one year off.
They're like, man, Harry's had a lot going on.
Let's give him a break.
You know, Dumbledore, why don't you jump it?
Tag team Dumbledore in here and fight this motherfucker so the 12-year-old doesn't get
killed in his third year.
Every year he's getting murdered.
Oh, no.
And you know what?
Everyone, like, there's this Draco Malfoy motherfucker that's a piece of shit to him.
I don't know anything about it.
I'm sorry, Draco, but your ass would be so dead twice over if Harry wasn't alive, at least in the first two books.
Anyways, can we just give the kid a break?
It's a much
It's too much
Also another book
What
You're just
On a soapbox
Oh yeah
Oh there I am
Hi hi hi
So I'm reading another book though
So I did two Harry Potters
You are really
On the reading train
So okay but like
I think every
Can I
I love Audible
This is not even a freak
That is insane
I should probably listen to podcasts Like get get ideas, but I don't.
Oh, well.
When I drive, every day it takes me 25 minutes to get somewhere.
Yeah.
Or 25 minutes to get to work, right?
So right there, that's almost an hour's worth of-
So that's when you listen?
Listening.
And then I go on a run every single day.
If you listen to a book while you run-
Love it.
I could never do that.
Love it.
I have to have the music.
I have to have the energy you run, I could never do that. Love it. I have to have the music. I have to have the energy.
Yeah, I understand that.
Right there, I'm at an hour and a half of listening a day.
Yeah.
So I can just rip through stuff.
I just can't believe that someone that loves music so much spends so much time listening to a book when you could be listening to music.
That blows my mind.
Yeah, you're right.
But good for you. Yeah.
I want to start listening to like
Spanish for dummies so I can start picking up Spanish.
That's what I'm going to listen to.
Yeah. But I started listening to
the Stephen King book called Under
the Dome. Never heard of it.
It's super dope. Stephen King freaks
me out. This was like 38 hours long.
This was going to take a while. I don't know if I'm going to be able to get through this one.
But so like one day they made able to get through this one.
So like one day,
they made a TV show off this thing.
But like one day,
this like dome appears over this little town in Maine.
Why does all the creepy stuff
have to happen in Maine?
Because Stephen King's from Bangor, Maine.
I found that out when I did an event
in Bangor, Maine.
I've never been to Maine.
Have you?
I went to Bangor, Maine for an event.
You did? Yeah, it was like the
Women's Summit or
something like that. Interesting. Why were you there?
I don't know. They wanted me to
bachelor person. That is insane. I need to go
to Maine just so I can be like, check, been there.
Yeah, beautiful place. It was so snowy.
I haven't finished yet, but under the
dome, I'm digging on it.
Really? Really digging on it. Okay.
So there you go. I just remember when I was younger, I watched a Stephen King movie called Dreamcatcher.
Yeah, yeah.
Did you ever see that?
It traumatized me.
I can't even sit here and tell you what it was about exactly.
All I know is that it traumatized me.
I remember, do you remember it was a made for TV Stephen King one, but it was thinner?
No, I never saw that.
Yeah, that one?
No.
Dreamcatcher, it did a number on me like that and Poltergeist.
I should have never watched that as a small child.
Yeah.
Stephen King's done some amazing ones that you wouldn't know are Stephen King novels
or movies like Shawshank Redemption.
Did you know that was Stephen King?
No.
Yeah.
And that's like one of my favorite movies ever.
That's every dude's favorite movie ever.
Every dude on the planet.
See Wataneho, man.
Uh-huh.
And then Stand By Me.
What's that? You ever seen Stand By Me? Who's in it?
Everyone's in it. Like, River Phoenix.
Love. As a child.
I've never seen it. Really? Yeah, I
needed to watch that. Hold on, let me just look up, like, the
yeah, River Phoenix, Will Wheaton,
Corey Feldman, Jerry O'Connell, who's a fat
kid in that, and Jerry O'Connell turned out to be, like, this, like,
hunk. Interesting.
Kiefer Sutherland.
What?
Dude.
Okay, I gotta watch that.
How have you never seen Stand By Me?
I'm too young.
I don't know.
That's probably true.
When did it come out?
86.
That makes sense.
That's a year before I was born.
Yeah.
Yeah, story by Stephen King. A full year.
Directed by Rob Reiner.
That's crazy.
Rob Reiner, huh?
Yeah.
Will Wheaton.
That's insane.
You know what I'm trying so hard to like and I just am having a hard time?
Westworld?
Well, that.
But bell peppers.
I just can't.
I did not know that's where you were going.
I just can't.
I am having, I'm like trying so hard to like eat them and be like, you like these.
You like peppers.
I don't.
Huh.
They're very cucumber-esque and I hate cucumbers.
Oh, really?
I love cucumbers and bell peppers.
Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on.
Are you trying to make this like a hummus dip?
Like you're using a dip in hummus?
I put them in a salad.
It was in one of their recipes, and they're in so many things.
What about sauteed, like with onions, like fajita style?
I could try it, I guess.
I guess I could give it a whirl.
Listen, life's too short to do shit you don't want to do.
If you don't like it, then don't eat it.
But, like, I want to like them.
They're so pretty and colorful and good for you.
Yeah, they are good for you.
But I don't like them.
Delete them, then.
I also don't like Westworld.
I'm trying really hard.
Yeah, are there any other shows you've been watching?
I was thinking about this last night because I am still watching Grey's Anatomy.
I'm almost done with Season 8 because there's nothing else to watch. Like, what's on right now that's worth watching? I was thinking about this last night because I am still watching Grey's Anatomy. I'm almost done with season eight
because there's nothing else to watch.
Like what's on right now that's worth watching?
In a world where there's just so much shit.
There's so much.
There's nothing.
There really truly is nothing right now.
What are you watching?
Nothing.
Really?
Yeah, see?
I want Game of Thrones back now.
I do too.
Give it back.
Can we talk about the Met Gala
and how everyone looked like they were Game of Thrones characters?
Everybody really did.
I was very unimpressed with the Met looks this year.
Very unimpressed.
I just don't even understand what it is.
What is it?
It's like, hey, famous people, costume party.
It's exactly what it is.
It's the costume party of the year for celebrities.
It's exactly, there's a theme every year, you know.
Yeah.
That's exactly what it is. It's insane. Well, that's cool then, I guess. The theme this year was religion. It's exactly, there's a theme every year, you know? Yeah. That's exactly what it is.
It's insane.
Well, that's cool then, I guess.
But the theme this year was religion.
That's just like weird.
That's a weird theme.
I agree.
I liked, a couple years ago, the theme was goth, and it was, everybody's looks were so
cool.
I love that.
Yeah, it was dope.
I thought Gigi Hadid did it.
I mean, she always, she's like my favorite.
I think she looked amazing.
Her dress was awesome.
It was Versace.
But I was just like pretty unimpressed for the most part.
Cardi B looked insane.
That's all I know.
Like good or bad?
Insane.
Not good.
That's okay.
That's okay.
Cardi can do whatever Cardi wants.
That is the truth of the world.
Do you have anything else?
Should we say our goodbyes?
Let's just do that now.
Let's have this hard conversation.
Guys, you know what?
To merge into the hard conversation, I just want to let you guys know, like, I wouldn't
call it, like, a midlife crisis or anything like that, but I'm, like, going through something.
Oh, yeah.
We were having this conversation bowling the other night.
Yeah.
What's going on?
I am.
I don't know.
Like, I just am going through something, and I feel like I'm just becoming very self-aware
of some, like, deep-rooted issues that I have regarding, like, saying how I feel and being
honest because I don't ever want
to upset anyone for better or worse.
Like I feel guilty sometimes for having any kind of
like feelings or opinions about things
because I just like don't, like my biggest fear
is to like rock the boat and upset somebody.
And that's why I'm a people pleaser.
But anyway, so we're going to have a hard conversation
with you guys and it's like, but this is good for me.
This is like going to help my personal growth
to like have a hard conversation right now.
This isn't a hard conversation.
Yeah, because people are going to be sad and disappointed.
And that's my biggest nightmare.
Yeah, but you're teeing it up like the show's dying.
Like when people tweet us and get upset with us for not posting, it devastates me.
I hate when people are upset with me.
It's awful.
Yeah.
Okay, but this is for a good reason.
We're taking our first hiatus ever.
Guys, how long have we been doing this show?
Season one's ending.
How about that?
Season one is over.
We did 22 episodes for season one.
That's ridiculous.
Did we do 22?
Yeah.
That's a lot.
This is episode 22.
I know.
It's crazy.
When I look at Ben and Ashley's thing-
Yeah, they do like 10.
Yeah, then they stop.
And then, so we got to take a break.
And the reason why we're taking a break is because I got to go leave the country for a month and a half.
He's got to go south for the spring.
Yeah.
You know?
And I'm taking a vacation, my first one, in, like, six years.
So, like, you got to give me that.
And, yeah, it's just going to be a little tiny break.
And then when we come back, we're going to be better than ever.
Here's what I've found, though.
Like, people bitch about the they want it more often, but I find that the shows are better when
we take a two-week break.
Do you?
Yeah, because then I get to compile the stories that I need or the things that I want to talk
about.
Right.
I always feel like if we do them back to back to back, then they're just very thin.
Yeah, we're oversaturating people with bullshit.
Yeah, I don't know.
So my thought is that when we come back,
you're going to have gone to Greece.
I know.
I'm going to be coming back from Mexico.
Yeah.
We're going to have some stories.
I know.
It's going to be good.
It's going to be good.
And I'm excited to see like Your Favorite Thing podcast season two ep one.
Yeah.
Because right now we're at 22.
That's crazy.
That's too much.
It's too much.
We need a little, just a little break.
Yeah.
To make it better for you guys, you know?
I think they're going to be fine with this.
I think you guys will be all right.
Like, I know there's no shows to watch or anything, but like, you're going to be fine.
You like set that up like the show is going to end.
We're going to have a hard conversation.
Your parents are getting divorced.
Maybe this is, yeah, I can't start hard conversations like that.
It wasn't even a hard conversation.
It's, hey, dude, I got to go film this thing. It's hard because I know what's coming. The tweets that say, no, I can't start hard conversations like that. It wasn't even a hard conversation. It's, hey, dude, I gotta go film this thing. It's hard because I
know what's coming. The tweets that say
no, don't leave us.
No, you guys can't avoid us.
And I'm gonna feel bad. I'm gonna feel sad
like I'm letting someone down somewhere. Well, if that's
the case, then I'll just straight up
we'll do one from Mexico. Yeah.
You can come down to Mexico.
Elon, will you fly me
down to Mexico? You you fly me down to Mexico
You can't like
It would be great if you could like sit there and like
Chat about what's going on down there
And you can't it's like what would you even talk about
I don't know what do we talk about here
We talk about nothing this is the Seinfeld podcast
You're right we talk about nothing
Alright so we're taking a break it's fine
It's fine it's gonna be great
It's gonna be good
We'll see you guys soon
It's not goodbye it's fine. It's going to be great. It's going to be good. We'll see you guys soon. We love you.
It's not goodbye.
It's, what movie is that from?
It's not goodbye.
It's just goodbye.
I can't remember what movie it's from.
But it's a very sad line in a very sad situation in a movie.
It's not goodbye.
It's just, it's goodbye.
It's, you know.
No.
I don't think it's a line, but.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
It's not goodbye.
It's not goodbye.
It's just, it's like, what movie is it where she's breaking up with somebody... Goodbye. Goodbye. It's not goodbye. It's not goodbye. It's just... It's like...
What movie is it where she's breaking up with somebody and she's like, it's not goodbye.
It's...
But it's just goodbye.
Goodbye.
And then they never see each other again and it's really sad.
But that's not going to be the case with us.
Okay.
I got to stop talking.
It's just...
It's not...
It's not...
I'm going to like...
It's going to drive me nuts that I can't think of a movie.
You know, everyone's going to be tweeting you like, this is the line you picked up.
I know.
Everyone's going to know. But that's why... You know what? That's what I love't think of. Everyone's going to be tweeting you like, this is the line. Everyone's going to know.
You know what? That's what I love about you guys.
When I don't know stuff, you guys really like
to tell me what it is that I don't know.
That's great. I learn a lot.
Alright, it's not goodbye. It's goodbye.
It's not goodbye. It's just goodbye.
We have
a new sponsor.
I'm actually
pumped about this sponsor.
I am too.
Not because I would ever use this
because I would.
Why not?
Maybe it would help
you grow some facial hair.
Ugh.
Do you think?
That's funny.
It probably won't though.
You're the last cause.
I will say though
that these are good.
Like they taste good.
That's what I'm saying.
Gummy bears are my
favorite food of all time.
So the fact that I,
so we're talking about
sugar bear hair vitamins.
Yeah, we are.
And the fact that you can
eat a gummy bear and there's vitamins
in it and it's going to make your hair grow and be healthy,
that's the best thing ever. Yeah.
And like,
here's pros for it. If it works
and your hair grows, hell yeah.
Great. And if it doesn't,
it's a yummy snack. It's a great
gummy bear. You're right. And there's some practical
things about it that I really, really like.
It's vegetarian.
Huge plus.
It's gluten-free.
I'm not a gluten-free person, but when I can eat gluten-free things, I feel better about
myself, you know?
Yeah.
So it's great.
And then my favorite thing is that it's cruelty-free.
Yeah.
So we're all about animal love with the sugar bear hair vitamins.
I wonder if animals like them.
I'm going to say it's probably not wise to give to Carl.
Why? I don't think you should.
I want Carl to have a luxurious coat
like a golden retriever now.
I'm going to go ahead and protect the brand here and say
that it's probably not approved for animal consumption.
I will not do it. I wouldn't give it to Carl, but
I enjoy eating them. I've been taking them
for the past few weeks now
that I've had it. It's really great
because they are doing a special
three month and six month
on sale thing. If you want to go online and buy a package deal, you get a cute hairbrush and you
get a cute bear pouch. I don't know, like call me crazy, but I just love long hair. I just think
long hair is always the way. Healthy hair is what's attractive to guys, right? Okay. Like
healthy, full, beautiful hair. I just think, and like, I'll get slaughtered for this because it's like sexist or whatever,
but I really do like, I just feel like girls with long hair, like guys like that.
Yeah, totally.
It's feminine, it's girly, it's whatever.
I was not blessed with great hair.
I have my mother's fine, thin hair.
It's very fragile, so I've always been a big fan of taking vitamins that will help counteract that.
So I'm really pumped about the Sugar Bear Hair vitamins because they're yummy and it's like candy, but they're good for me.
All right. Get yourself some sugar bear hair at sugarbearhair.com slash Amazon. Do it. Delicious.
