Sorry, I'm going to be a little frazzled to start the show off because Sarah and I literally, literally, literally just walked in the door. We went to Monterey for Halloween. It took longer than we thought to get back because that's just how life works. Nothing is ever as fast as you

want it to be. So, you know, it is what it is. No, Sarah and I just walked in the door and we rented a car. They were adamant. They were like, no dogs and no sand. If there's sand in the car, then we could find you $400. And I was like, no one's ever said this to me before. And of course, the one time we're taking the dog to the beach in Carmel. So I like had to vacuum a rental car before I dropped it off. Because I was like, I'm not getting that far. I'm not getting $400. I did some Febreze in there to spruce it up.

You know. All right, let's call the brand guy. Time to call her up now. It is time. Hi. We're very stressed. This is going to be a very stressed out episode. Why are you stressed?

We just got back into town. We made a last second audible call to drive up to Monterey for Halloween. Oh. To go see some family friends. And then we literally just walked in the door. Oh, wow. Yeah. We were hustling back.

We could have pushed this a little bit. No, because let me tell you what, your boy is busy. He's a busy bee. Oh, really? You keep saying that. It's not getting any better. Tomorrow, I have to edit this show. Okay.

You don't know. You just get to waltz into this show unprepared, no notes. You're so right. Nothing. And I have to sit here and edit this thing to the nines. So that's going to take up the entire morning. Got it. And then I have a haircut.

Oh, very important. And then I need a workout and then it is important and then i need to pack again oh and i need to go to the cleaners i gotta get all this stuff and then sarah and i have a dinner we have to go to a dinner we have a dinner we have to go to and then we've got another wedding and then another wedding and then another wedding and then everyone stopped getting married i'm we've got another wedding, and then another wedding, and then another wedding, and then another. Everyone, stop getting married. We've done the math. I'm going to go, I think, to 11 weddings this year.

Oh, my God. I don't even like 11 people. Yeah, me neither. You know? I thought three was a lot. Yeah. Three. What I would pay to just do three would be the best.

Mm-hmm. So we're very frazzled, very frazzled. How are you doing? Well, I'm up and I'm down. So we're very frazzled, very frazzled. How are you doing? Well, I'm up and I'm down. So it's finally cold here. The leaves are gorgeous. And I've just been soaking in the goodness that is fall. So like in that aspect, I'm doing so great.

On the other aspect, I got a few more veneers on Monday. You got more? I want to say a few. I mean, I got six at more veneers on Monday. You got more. And when I say a few, I mean I got six at one time. Why? So my bottom teeth, okay, I had braces in, when did I start braces? Eighth grade? Yeah. Seventh grade, somewhere like that.

I had them for almost three years. I had the most fucked up teeth. I gotta admit, when I was a kid, I was scared of everything. Like I was scared of pain. Like I was scared of everything like I was scared of pain like I was scared of any doctor and so when it came to the dentist I'm pretty sure I was told like hey you should have some teeth pulled because you have too many teeth and like your teeth are never going to be straight and I'm pretty sure I convinced my parents into like not letting

that happen pretty sure I did that by like throwing tantrums hysterics probably trying to like kick people that came near me at the dentist like I'm sure I was terrible but all that to say my bottom teeth are just so crowded and I didn't wear my retainer and my teeth have been crooked for as long as I can remember so I've had a couple of veneers on my top teeth for a long time because one tooth like wouldn't come down when I had the braces and you know my mom she like vanity is everything so she took me right to the dentist to get two veneers when I was like 18 and so my top teeth have always looked pretty good because of that but the bottom's just always been crooked so I like thought about Invisalign you know because that's what everybody who's an adult does but I just don't think I can

do it I don't think I could I didn't wear the retainers to begin with I just didn't think I could do it and so I was like screw it we're getting veneers we're getting veneers and they had to do six to get them straight which is a lot and i really thought like oh this would be a cakewalk i've had a couple done like no biggie take a zanny hit the gas like you'll be good no no six at once was insane i laid there for like four hours and i was nice and high and by the way i think i said this i'm sorry we're stoned but i have a killer dentist playlist that we're gonna share because when you're high on that gas it's like it hits just right my playlist i'm just telling you takes you to another place it's great um but my mouth hurts my my teeth hurt and like

even like my whole jaw was swollen yesterday. I'm not recovering as well as I imagined. But I think the payoff is going to be good. So I don't know. You don't have veneers, do you? No. Okay. And I don't understand this.

They do all the work to get them ready, but then they put these temporaries on, and then they send off for your real ones, and you go back in three weeks and get the real ones. But I just don't get why we have to do this temporary thing i don't know i'm not i'm not a dentist like i just i guess it's frustrating i'm like oh we did all this work i can't like what's what are we doing that we have to have temps and then yeah i feel like there should be some science there that like takes out the temporary part. But so the temporary ones are just one piece, like all six teeth. They're just like, it's like one piece, like almost like a denture.

Right. Okay. I know. So it just feels weird. And then in three weeks I'll go get the real ones and we'll be looking super flat. Or you're going to look like Matt Dillon from something about Mary, where it's just like all teeth and it's just you're gonna yeah no because I have a fab dentist do you yeah she's amazing her name's Dr. Lewis

and she's here in Nashville if anybody's looking for a great dentist and I have literally gone to her since I can remember and her dad did my mom's veneers so we like keep it in the fam and she's just lovely and I'm pretty sure she does like all the titans and predators she's got all their plaques on her wall you know and if it's good enough for the guys i get their teeth knocked out every day it's good enough for me hold on i'm gonna try something i realized that my energy just wasn't what gonna it wasn't gonna be where i needed it to be oh so what would we get i got some alcohol i thought you know what let's just love that for you let's just guys sometimes you just gotta do what you thought, you know what? Let's just. Love that for you. Let's just. Guys, sometimes you just got to do what you got to do.

You know? It's true. Yeah. You're just like, listen, I'm just, I'm not going to be where I need to be. I've been stressed all day and I need a little beer, a little beer ski. Oh, a beer. Okay. And I deserve it.

Yes. What kind of beer is that? I know this is a truly, this is a mojito. It's pretty good. Pretty, pretty good. Thank you, mojito. It's pretty good. Pretty, pretty good. Thank you, mojito. Sponsor our show. Seriously.

You've got robot teeth now. That's great. Yeah, my mouth hurts. Does it? Yeah, so, you know. I'm sorry. Please help me today. Okay.

Should we start the show? Do you just want to get it over with? Yeah. Okay. Is it me or you? I think it's you because I think I did it in studio. Yeah, you did. Bros and hoes, you're listening to Your Favorite Thing Podcast with...

Do it. You know, I don't love the posting of the slides video because everyone was just making fun of the fact that my legs were crossed. And they were talking shit about all the cords, which I said, I don't have the desk yet. But you can clean the cords up. I can't. Well, what's the point? I'm getting rid of this desk the second it comes in.

Not to live in cord hell for 40 days. Listen, I am living in cord hell over here. You know, I'm a leg crosser. I'm a leg crossing man. It's just a bit feminine. I don't care. Okay. Quick question. I've never really thought about this before, you know, but I'm just imagining what it would be like to have something between my legs with a leg cross. My legs are crossed right now.

Yeah. Where do your balls go exactly? They're on top of it. Ugh. Yeah. I don't like that at all. They're on top of your legs? Yeah.

And so is my dick. They're not like squished in between. That one makes sense, but the balls on top of the leg. I don't like it. So here's the thing. Here's the thing. I don't like it. So here's the thing. Here's the thing. I've thought about this a lot. Men have never really understood how far down a vagina is on your body.

Like it is, it is on the, like right next to your butthole, right? Yeah. Your guys's taint is like an inch baby, you know, like,

like that, right? Yeah, it's all right there together. And here's the thing that I don't think that women understand about men. Is that the distance between our butthole and the back of our nuts is not the same as the end of your vagina and the butthole. A lot more real estate down there. I'm not fucking with you. My taint is at least five to six inches i don't need to know okay but i guess what i'm trying to say is is that i think that in your mind when you think of like crossing your legs you think of like my dick would be where

your vagina is and it's not it's just not my dick is much higher on my body than where your vagina is. Sounds awful. Just so you know. Sounds terrible. But, like, I'm not the first guy in the world to cross his legs. No, I know. I've just never thought about it until this moment, and I just had to ask, you know? Anyhow.

Anywho. My taint is about five to six years still don't need to know didn't need to hear it twice didn't need to hear it once you know I mean is it better if I were to like do this like with like my ankle on my knee because I do that too yeah that seems better the problem with that is at a desk, I'm now further back because my knee is like in the desk area. So when I do that, I can kind of, when I do that kind of the girly cross, but also it's hereditary. My dad does it too. Oh, really? Yeah, it's totally. Yes, 100%.

Is it hereditary or have you just watched him do that your whole life and now you do it? Yeah, maybe so. I don't know. We do the same leg too. Like I can't do it with my other leg. I can, but it's not comfortable. It's just not natural. Yeah.

I'm a leg crossing boy. Let's talk about something that won't get us canceled. VIP? Halloween. Oh. I think that you won the Halloween costume thing. Obviously. I know.

Yeah. Yours was good. The makeup made it. Yeah. Yours was good. Definitely. And I like that you... The makeup made it. Yeah. Did you do that yourself? No. I hired a professional and it took him two and a half hours. Really? So worth it. It looked so good. It did look really good. And I like that you were... Like anime version? Yeah.

The original one and not like the daddy's little princess one. Because that one I'm like, everyone fucking does that one. You know? Yeah. Also like the baby tea and not like the daddy's little princess one. Cause that one, I'm like, everyone fucking does that one. You know? Also like the baby tea and the baseball bat. Yeah. I wanted the leotard. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. No, that's, did you have like the really, really thick, like New Jersey accent all night? Um,

I didn't talk. I played music, you know, did you have a big piece of bubble gum? No, I don't chew gum. Yes, I know.

But the character, Harley Quinn, chews a lot of gum. Yeah, not me. I need you to commit, Brandy. Wasn't the face paint enough? Yours was really good, though. Thank you. It was really good. Yours was also good?

It was pretty good. Yeah. What about Heidi Klum? I just wish Heidi Klum would try harder, you know? So that's sarcasm we've done this bit i think on this show a lot but i hate heidi klum's halloween party why because it's so over the fucking top like yeah but it's halloween halloween's over the top totally but like her like this one the peacock one she has like 17 people being the peacock. I love a group costume. It's too much.

I disagree. I loved it. I want to go next year. It was in New York. Why didn't I stay longer and go? I don't know. Maybe I will next year. I'm sure I'd go too, but I just feel like she's just like a try hard when it comes to Halloween.

I think she's the queen of Halloween, so she can do whatever she wants. I'm going to disagree. I think the queens of Halloween are Neil Patrick Harris and his husband and their kids. They kill it every year. I didn't see. What were they? Oh, I think they were Willy Wonka. Oh, that's a good one. It's so good.

Paris Hilton always kills it on Halloween, too. It's so funny because I saw her that night, and I was like, you're Britney. Like afterwards, but I didn't get it. I loved it. Yeah, Halloween was fun this year. We got to do something big next year though for it. Yeah. I think, you know? All right, should we talk some BIP?

Yeah. Ep six. Yeah. Okay, if you want to skip the BIP recap, you can fast forward to around the 30, 33 mark. Okay, it starts out with tanner pulling cat after he slept an ungodly amount of time putting off the yeah he was like i don't want to do this i don't want to pretend i'm sleeping forever i love that like the shot of him sleeping you're

like you're not sleeping yeah i don't believe you're sleeping no No. So he pulls Kat. You know it's going to be bad. Just because the energy she's putting off is just not great. Not good. Not good. She says something that I thought was really, really funny. She says, I'm not an option. I want my man to choose me. And I love that so much because, Kat, that's what an option is.

A choice is an option that you choose, you know? She's cuckoo for cuckoo puffs with guys. It's just so funny. And listen, she's beautiful. And I totally get her mentality of like, you can't dump me. I dump you. That's kind of like the vibe it was. like you can't dump me I dump you like that's kind of like the vibe it was I think he does a pretty good job of I don't think uh going forward we're the right we're right for each other I mean

I think he could have stopped himself before saying like you're I know he didn't say it like this but he basically said like you're not wife material yeah probably you should have stopped yourself before you went there. Cause I think that's what really tipped the scale of her anger. I'm going to like, I'm mad to like, I'm furious. Is him kind of taking a dig at her character. So I didn't love that. I wish he would just kind of like taking the high road and, you know,

let her think that she was doing the breaking up and just let it, let it be. It was a little bit of, it's not me, it's you. Yeah. And while that may be true, he just should have let it play out differently for his own sake. Yeah. That's all I think. But it was so funny, her going up to the girls.

The delusion that's happening with her is like yeah he didn't break up with me it was like more mutual and it was like no that's not that's exactly that's exactly the opposite what really happened actually he broke up with you yeah and then you went into the like you don't you don't no one dumps me i dump you i dump you she goes uh i walked away from him i'm just better with davia in the background. I mean, I hate to say poor Davia, but like kind of poor Davia. Yeah. Yeah.

I wonder what's going through Davia's mind in that moment. She's probably thinking this girl's nuts. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, she's probably thinking like dodged a huge bullet. Well, yeah. With like being in a love triangle now. Kat, step aside.

We'll come back to you in a bit. Genevieve comes in. Genevieve. Yes. And it's funny. I don't know if I knew that that was what her name was. And I think I called her Genevieve the entire time. Oh, good, good.

Because I'm sure that happens to her all the time and she loves it yeah well people call me Adam all the time so it just sucks to have a weird name sometimes fair welcome to the party Genevieve um she takes Blake on a date and it's one of the weirdest conversations that I feel like I've ever witnessed in paradise of Blake talking to Jess, who just recently told him, I want to stay open, Blake. So I need some space or whatever. And Blake was like, okay, I'm going to give you some space. And like, I feel like you're not fully into me. Then this girl comes in, wants to take Blake. She immediately has like seller's remorse,

Jess does, I feel like. And the fact that she goes, I just didn't see this coming, I think is beautiful. This is what the entire show is. Is this coming? Like you had to know that this was coming. Then of course, the second that you're like,

I don't know. That's when someone comes in and takes him away. I think a lot of it and we kind of talked about this last week is Jess's age. And listen, I think she's super mature for her age to even be able to like be in this situation and handle it at all. But I do think that the relational maturity, you know, you gain as you get older and you've been in relationships, it definitely determines how you handle things. And it's pretty clear that she hasn't had a serious relationship or been in many where I just don't think she really knows how to handle her emotions for the most part. I mean, I thought it was funny. Like she was just immediately like, well, hold on. for the most part.

I mean, I thought it was funny. Like she was just immediately like, well, hold on. Yeah. Now someone likes, it's almost like, I don't want to, I'm not calling her a dog, but it's like a dog when they've got this toy that they never care about. And the second you take it and like, you're going to throw it away.

That's like, I need that toy. What are you doing? That's my toy. And it's almost like Blake was that toy to her. I feel like for sure. And I think she's struggling to with Blake is such a good guy on paper. He makes so much sense. Like he's such a catch and she, and she's probably beating herself up for not having more feelings than she does. Like, I think she probably wishes like, why can't I just feel more for him because he's so great. And we've all been there, right? We're like,

you're just not that into him, but you wish you were because they're so great. Like, I think everyone can relate to that. And so I think that that's part of this as well. Yeah. And then, you know, he goes on this date with Genevieve. It's kind of awkward in the beginning, but, and you're not really sure where it's going, but then it turns out to be like really cute and they make out like a lot on the beach. And I think that, I think they're having a hard time, like really cute and they make out like a lot on the beach and i think that i think they're having a hard time like really kind of explaining what the thing is that's missing and i think the thing that's missing with a lot of people like cat talked about this a lot with tanner about like he's he's doesn't tongue kiss me always tongue kiss time and i think what they're all trying to

verbalize is passion like they they, like they need passion. And then all of a sudden, you know, Jess and Tyler start talking, which are like the cutest freaking couple in the world. Even though I love Mercedes and I don't like that this is happening, but then all of a sudden they start making out and I'm like, boom,

there it is. There, there it is. There's passion. There it is. That gave you the tingle in the dingle. Ew. Boom. There it is. There it is. There's passion. There it is. That gave you the tingle. In the dingle.

Ew. Seven inches removed from your butthole. Nope. Nope. Nope. Do you think that Jess and Tyler are right for one another? I don't know. I don't know if anyone down there is that serious.

I just don't know. Let's bring Kat anyone down there's that serious i just don't know let's bring cat back into this uh speaking of not serious uh can we get cat back in here yeah let's get cat um his cat wheels up so we need her we need her in here now but by the way brayden is just narrating this whole episode it's so funny and when he starts talking about cat is homie hopping around it's such a great term that we've never used she is totally homie hopping and she has only has eyes for john henry and he has no idea what's happening no he doesn't and then olivia spells it out for him yeah and i just don't think he cares yeah i don't think he cares either but i love it's two women who do not hold back no and it's so funny to have them going against one another and then you have this poor sweet

underwater welder in caught in middle. He's like, man, I don't even know what words they're using right now, but I know two hot chicks are into it. That couldn't have turned out better. Oh, yeah, for television. And then Kat, can we get Kat back in here? Hey, Kat,

just go drop a bomb on Eliza while you're dropping a bomb in the toilet. Oh my gosh, she needs to relax. But I will say, there does seem to be some piping hot tea there. Yeah, so like this whole storyline of Aaron may or may not have been dating a girl right before going on The Bachelorette. And this is what Charity's been concerned about. And Aaron's kind of saying like the timeline doesn't line up. But the way he kind of tells the story is so convoluted.

When you are innocent, and I actually do think he's probably innocent. But when you're innocent, you need to have your facts very well aligned. And it needs to be, I broke up with her this month. I started doing the show this month. And we weren't even together then. So, yes, she's upset that I went on the show and that we broke up. But, like, we were broken up for, like, two months. I feel like I'm free to go on a show about dating

if I've been single for three months. But he doesn't do that. He's like, well, you can see like the geometric patterns in his head. He's like, well, April and then May and then circle back to March and then October, January. Then this happened and then this other girl. And you're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Too many facts.

I need this to be cut and dry my guy yeah bringing up the second girl yeah the nail in the coffin didn't need to do that at all didn't need to do that hey listen no i was single i was dating around i was in a relationship with this one girl we broke up three months later i went on the show was i dating other people going into the show yeah but you know i'm on t show was i dating other people going into the show yeah but you know i'm tinge and bumble or whatever and like nothing was serious you're fine yeah but it does seem a little fishy but i do love the fact that cat is the one who does it and i do feel bad for the pit for the producers to be like you guys couldn't do that on a daybed? You got to go do it in the shitter where we can't even film it?

What the fuck? I know. I was hoping for like a... Why would you hope for that? I don't know, it'd be funny. Or maybe it did happen in the sound. The sound engineers had to be like, fuck, we got to cut this out. This is a lot of farts.

Then Becca comes in. She sounds like a robot. I don't. I don't. I think that like AI took over this woman's body and it's like computing, computing. Go down to the beach. Say hello to everybody. I've been so team Brayden this entire season.

I know. And I'm not even mad about him going on a date it's just play it cool dude he like holds her hand when they're going down like what are you doing bro i know it's not good she asks him on the day and he like picks her up in front of everybody it's like i know that you're quirky and you're different and you're weird and you're wearing a scarf and it's seven million degrees outside but like i need you to have like a little bit of tact bro yeah i feel very bad for rachel especially because like now you've got another bachelorette coming down god that people are just raving over and not that to take away from charity she's lovely but like i don't know i feel like rachel's really getting the shit into the stick here this year yes i've been saying that from from the get-go i i'm gonna say something kind of controversial

i don't think that there is any benefit to bringing former leads onto the show that aren't gonna date yeah i agree all it is is like the tease oh my god we've never had more bachelorettes on the show but it's But it's not real. Like eats up like a ton of time. I guess this charity one's good because there's tea to dish for Eliza. But I don't know. It just chews up a lot of time of a show where I'm like, you guys aren't even here to date, man. Like, can we focus on people who want to date? I don't know.

That's a... I agree. That's probably something that the producers don't want me to say, but that's how I do feel. Here's the other thing I don't like about it. What's great about Paradise is that everyone's equal when they go to that show. No one's better than anybody else. It doesn't really matter.

And then all of a sudden you get like a bachelor or a bachelorette coming in and they're like treated like gods. And it's like no but this shows everyone's equal i just i think what i'm trying to say is i'm i'm feeling bad for rachel and i don't like it i don't like what's happening same yeah also way too much stuff was happening in this episode it was like date date date date date date it was like way too much stuff i couldn't keep i couldn't keep track so the next thing that happens is Charity comes down. She gathers all her girls together.

It's so great to be like, okay, give me all the tea. And then Kat's like, well, I'm into John Henry. And then Olivia's like, I just had a conversation with John Henry. And he said that I'm his number one. I'm number one. And he's got a connection with me. So, bitch, shut the fuck up. Loved it.

Oh God, it's so great. Eliza, she does the right thing. She's like, hey, can I pull you aside and kind of hear it from you? Like I need to know like exactly what this is. I think she does a good job with that. But here's the thing. You have to take it with a grain of salt.

I don't even remember what happened, but like I know Aaron went really far with Charity, right? Yeah, he was like top three or two, right? So she feels a certain way no matter what. Yeah. That's like an ex. It's like someone that she was like considering to get engaged to. Right.

There's a part of me that's like, yeah, but you might still be kind of like butthurt over like the show and stuff whether or not he did have a girlfriend going into the show or not yeah it does seem like charity's reaction to aaron b in general like anytime his name comes up there is like her facial expression is clear that there's some like negative feelings there yeah and so it's like did more happen than just this like maybe he had a girlfriend before because that doesn't seem to warrant the level of distaste on her face when they bring him up i don't know i guess we'll find out next week maybe i mean we've got to find out next week i think that's everything yeah did we do it i think so yeah is that your dog or my dog yes fucking beagle what's that dog's name little dog little Yes. Fucking beagle. What's that dog's name?

Little dog? Little. Why is little dog doing that? She's out there harassing something. Should I go get her? No, it's fine. It's annoying. Can you believe I have to listen to this shit all the time?

That's your life every day? Dude, this is the first time we've taken Sarah's dog Boo on like a really long road trip. This dog will not lay down in a car. Oh. It's just like on the center console. And it's like, you know, just in your face. And I'm like, fucking get away from me. Lay down.

And of course, any turn, any slowing down of momentum, fucking tumbles into you. And you're like, dude, if you would just lay down, you'd be fine. Anytime she hears the blinker, she thinks we got to be close to where we're going because the blinker's on. Poor boo. Oh, my God. But we did get to take her to Carmel Beach and let her run around. And that was really fun and cute.

Pretty cool. Yeah. All right. Well, do you have some fave things, bro? Or what's going on here? Okay,

bro. So I watched pain hustlers. Do you know about this movie? No pain hustlers, pain hustlers. It's on Netflix. I'm pretty sure. And it's Emily Blunt and Chris Evans.

Okay. Love both of them. Unfortunately, this is a story we've seen quite a few times in the past year or two. It's kind of the same. It's not technically about Oxy. They call it something different, but it's just that same story about the opioids and whatever. It's very similar to Painkiller which we just all watched which

was a series and as much as i love emily blunt and chris evans i think emily blunt's phenomenal in this i liked the series a lot better you liked painkiller better than pain hustlers i did yeah change the name though guys right i know liza dreams of a better life for herself and her daughter. Hired to work for a bankrupt pharmaceutical company, Liza skyrockets with sales and into the high life, putting her in the middle of a federal criminal conspiracy. Pain Hustlers on Netflix. Yeah, it looks exactly like Painkiller. Yeah, it's very similar i think what i liked better about the series about painkiller yeah is because it's a series right you have more screen time and more time to get to know different

characters right like that character building is just like you've got more time to do that whereas with a movie it just always seems a little bit more shallow so that was complaint one like this film was mostly just about Emily Blunt's character. I mean, you know, oh, she was just like the, got the most screen time. Like that's kind of who you get to know the best and the most. So I don't know. I just liked that Painkiller had all the different storylines

where like a lot of the victims, you really got invested in their story and their families and stuff. And to me that made it hit harder. But it's still good. Like it's still a good movie. It's just really unfortunate that it came out like so close after. Yeah.

Killer, you know? Yeah. To that effect, fall the house of Usher that I absolutely loved is also kind of about that. The house of Usher owns a pharmaceutical company that's been killing a lot of people, but it's really not about that. It's really about all the kids dying. But it is a big

focal point in storytelling these days. I would not want to be a pharmaceutical company these days. You wouldn't want to be a zillionaire? No. Not if I was killing people. Yeah, that's good. Good for you. Wouldn't want that. Okay, I'm almost embarrassed

to say that I am absolutely obsessed with this. Okay. But House of Villains is so good. What is that? Okay, it's the dumbest show on E. Oh, that was unexpected. And it's funny because I have friends on this show. And it's funny because I have friends on the show.

Villains from some of television's most popular reality shows will be put in competition where each week one will be eliminated until only one winner remains. House of Villains. Sounds terrible. It's so bad. But it's so great, though. It's Johnny Bananas is on it. Classic. Love him. Jax from Vanderanas is on it. Classic. Love him.

Jax from Vanderpump. Okay. Okay. I'm friends with both of those people. Corinne Olympios from The Bachelor. Yep. And Bachelor in Paradise for about an hour. And then Omarosa, who was, you know, like, what was Trump's stupid show? You're fired.

The Apprentice. She was on that. And then she was like part of Trump's team. And You're fired. The Apprentice. She was on that. And then she was part of Trump's team. And then she flipped on him. She's a horrible person. And she's a great villain. That guy Sheik from... Oh.

Yeah, he's in it. He's from Love is Blind? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's in it. And he's gained some weight a little bit, which is funny. And his storyline is he's very messy. He's very dirty. And everyone's like really, his storyline is he's very messy. He's very dirty. And everyone's like, fucking clean up your shit, dude.

And there's like people from like Real Housewives and like Basketball Why. There's shows that like I don't watch, but like they're in there. It is so incredibly bad and fast and fantastic. Oh, okay. Joe McHale hosts it, of whom I love dearly. What do you watch this on, like Hulu?

It's on E, I think. Yeah, but what if you don't have cable? E or Bravo. Well, that's not helpful. You can download the E app or the Bravo app. Surely this is on Hulu. Okay, get it on Hulu. I don't care.

I don't know. All I know is I watch it on E. Okay, all right. I can't even explain it. Go watch House of Villains immediately. E-mediately. Okay. All right.

I know you don't watch it. Okay. But we have to talk about The Morning Show for just a second. Okay. You don't watch that show, right? I don't, but I liked it. I liked the first one. I really think you would like it.

Okay. So massive spoiler alert if you are not caught up on the morning show fast forward about 60 seconds because i'm definitely going to talk about what happened this in this new episode that just came out um last night everything's going to shit okay i was so rooting for jen aniston uh alex levy i was so rooting for Jen Aniston, Alex Levy. I was so rooting for Alex and the billionaire and their love relationship because, you know, Alex just hasn't had that. And, you know, she just got the shit into the stick with all the Mitch stuff. And I was just so happy for her. Jon Hamm is smoking hot.

They're so cute together. He's a gazillionaire. And so but, you know, now there's all these rumors going around about him. And I hate to say it, but you're a now there's all these rumors going around about him and I hate to say it, but you're a man and you're a billionaire and like the chances of you being a bad guy are pretty high, you know? And poor Alex is getting caught in the crosshairs, but she is like totally ignoring her friends. Bradley's trying to warn her and she just like won't hear it.

And she is about to like go down with the motherfucking ship and everything's just falling apart. And it scares me because I think the season is almost over. and if they end this season with everything up in the air i'm gonna be pissed yeah real pissed as you should so i'm upset okay and i just feel so bad for alex i just really wanted her and john ham to like be in love yeah i don't know about any of that you're a person that doesn't eat shrimp, right? Correct. Why is that? The texture of it just really freaks me out.

Also, just the way they look in general looks disgusting to me. So I love shrimp. I do. Well, that doesn't shock me because you also eat crawfish, which are literal insects. Yeah, well, they're the same thing. But I also love crab. Do you like crab? I do like crab.

Okay. I don't like lobster. I think lobster, this is how I take it. I think lobster is so overrated. Oh, wow, I like lobster. Especially in my sushi. Anything you dip in butter is going to be delicious. And that's what crab is.

True. But I'm now not sure if I can eat any of that because I was flipping through TikTok and I came across a Joe Rogan clip. Okay. They were talking about shellfish. He was like, you guys know that like shrimp and crab and lobster.

He's like, those are cockroaches, right? Like, you know that those are bugs. And he was like, oh, I know. I know they're bugs. I'm like, yeah, we've all said that. Like, they look like bugs and they're bugs. And he was like oh i know i know they're bugs i'm like yeah we've all said that like they look like bugs and they're bugs and he goes oh no no no when i was hosting fear factor we made someone eat cockroaches no no no and he had an allergic reaction his throat closed up and we found out later he had a shellfish allergy. He was like, they are the exact same thing. And once I heard that, I realized I never want to eat those things

again. Will I? Yes. Will I try to forget that? Absolutely. But is that not the grossest thing you've ever heard in your entire life? It's pretty gross, but it's not that shocking. Yeah. heard in your entire life it's pretty gross but it's not that shocking yeah you know and it makes sense why people have like shellfish allergies because that's your body being like don't you you probably should not be eating this giant bug that's not good for anybody no it's not no so that fucking sucks because i love i love some crab and some shrimp um so you're really gonna not eat it I find that hard to believe I'm going to slow down really I am I am okay once I heard that I was like fucking gross dude yeah you know but I I just the blue crab hand rolls from Nobu are just the most incredible thing I've ever had in my whole life.

And I will never say no to those. I do love blue crab. So good. Oh, and I love a crab boil. I love a shrimp boil. Yeah. I like it when it's on my fancy plate at my fancy restaurant. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay, Nobu. I get it. You're rich. Here's the other thing. Do you eat beef? Yeah. Rarely, but yeah. You eat it rare?

No. Lee?, but yeah. You eat it rare? No. Lee? Oh, okay. I am really struggling with wanting to stop eating beef. Because cows are like big dogs. They're like really sweet and they like really like play around and stuff. And that makes me feel sad. Yeah.

Now chickens I don't give a fuck about. Same. And don't come at me. PETA. But those are just dinosaurs. I think't give a fuck about. Same. And don't come at me. Pita. But those are just dinosaurs. I think we're just eating dinosaurs. And, you know, they had their time. They had 65 million years.

What about pigs? I know. That's the thing. And the pigs are really smart too. They're really smart. Yeah. But I made this joke on Caitlin Briscoe's podcast. If they were so smart, they wouldn't be so delicious.

You know? Well, that's not funny. It is a funny joke. I do. I love bacon. But that's the funny. It is a funny joke. I love bacon. But that's the thing. And I do love like prosciutto. But I don't like like pork tenderloin. That's gross.

Remember that whole, what a terrible ad campaign. Pork, the other white meat. Ugh. Gross. Why do you say like that? I don't remember that, but that's nasty. Oh, yeah. I feel bad.

I like pigs too yeah i know it's tough it's really tough i think i like cacao's more though yeah but i also like the way a hamburger tastes more than bacon so yeah so what i think i'm gonna try to do is i'm just gonna cut down okay That's a good start. Yeah. Okay. That's all I got. Do you have anything else? No, but that was a really sad place to land on. Yeah, we should maybe not do that ending.

I don't know. Do we have any like fuck you very muches or Let's go through it. Lighten the mood? Let's go through some fuck you very muches. You know? This one comes from Hand Mama. Five stars.

Thanks for that. Subject line, love the show. I love the BIP recaps. Please keep them in. And by the way, I'm old, but I know a darty is a day party, not a drunk party. Damn, I was wrong about that. A darty is a day party, and I said it was a drunk party. I still don't like the term though because party isn't

narty. I don't know. It can be though. Now. I don't know. I'm having a narty right now. I cannot. A narty also sounds like you gotta go take a big shit or something. I gotta go take a narty. That was a fucking

gnarly narty. Wow. Save the episode. Just like that. Wow. All right, this one comes from Crumj18. Five stars. Thanks for that.

Subject line, FYVM. What does that mean? For your voicemail, maybe. Oh, maybe. Wells and Brandy, I love you. You always have the best recommendations and listening every week is a highlight. Wells, remember your roots with us, loyal podcast listeners.

When you play videos, we can't see them and we can barely hear what they are saying. It makes this segment with the video content hard to understand and enjoy. Fair enough. Brandy, don't listen to the shade about the summer I turn pretty. I love the show and the audio

books are even better. Oh. Is there shade about me watching that show? I think I made fun of you because I was like, you're a 12-year-old, but you're drinking old-fashioned. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It is good. La La Jojo. Five stars. Thanks for that. Keep doing BIP as a subject line.

I like hearing your BIP recap to hear. Well, inside inside view is unique and you both get the most important parts. Good job for both of you. OK, this is coming from Kel Bell. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Five stars. Thanks for that subject line. Love the pod.

But ellipses. Are we not going to talk about how we casually switched from dropping the pod on Wednesdays to Fridays? My hump day is now significantly less appealing. Well, Kel Bell, we did talk about this. Okay. We did.

Yeah. We did this because of bachelor in paradise comes out on Thursday. So we thought we'd be able to pull it out episodes on Friday. But when Bachelor in Paradise ends, we'll probably go back to Wednesdays. And a lot of people like Fridays. I don't give a shit. You like Wednesdays? I do.

Okay. I'm a big Wednesday fan. I love a Wednesday. Yeah. It's a lot of people with the, like, keep doing VIP. That's good. Okay, that's it. That's that.

Okay. I got probably some calls I can find, too. Want to do a couple calls? Sure. Okay, that's it. That's that. Okay. I got probably some calls I can find, too. Want to do a couple calls? Sure. Yeah, hi. This is Caitlin calling from Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. Hey, Caitlin. Just need the producers to label this.

What the fuck is happening here? Because why have you guys not talked about Foundation on Apple Plus? Huh, Foundation. I don't understand. I think you might have talked about For All Mankind if you haven't. Why? But please, for the love of God, watch the show,

listen to the podcast. It's freaking amazing. Alright, you'll thank me later. Bye-bye. There's a show called Foundation and there's a podcast about it? I don't know about the podcast. I've seen the banner for Foundation on Apple. Yeah, I have too.

I've never seen it. I think I've watched it. All right, I'll look into that. But I feel like she wanted one of these. What the fuck is happening here? I think that's what she wanted. I was just trying to be. This one's entitled Wells Equals Lifesaver, which, listen listen i don't consider myself a hero but many

people do just you yeah so this week my favorite things is your show even more than normal because wells saved my dog's life the other night my husband like like had some like meat package he was like cooking like he like left it open to let the dog like lick it and then the dog like ate the little insert thing that's under the meat to keep it cool or something. So then he was freaking out thinking it was going to kill the dog. And I remembered from Wells talking about at some point with Carl that if you give dogs hydrogen peroxide on bread and have them eat it, it'll make them throw up. And that's exactly what we did, bread. Makes them throw up. Have them eat it.

It'll make them throw up. And that's exactly what we did, and it made them throw up. So, therefore, y'all saved my dog's life. And very, very appreciative. Love y'all so much. Y'all are always my favorite thing. I'm listening. It's the only podcast I've listened to every single episode of.

Have a great week. Bye. Oh, my name is Amy, by the way. Bye. Bye. Have a great week. Bye. Oh, my name is Amy, by the way. Bye. Reverend Wells is here to save not only the souls of humans, but also the souls of dog dogs and cat cats. Has this been programmed for a while?

Yes, this is Gregorian Chan. Anytime I was talking about being Reverend Wells, I played this. I am a man of God. I don't know if you know that, but I am a man of God. Right. All right, one more. Hey, guys. Great show. Awesome show.

Love you guys. Love the show. Okay. Wait a second. Is that. Awesome show. Love you guys. Love the show. Okay. Wait a second. Is that a dude? Is this a guy? I love that for us. What?

I have a request, actually. Okay. A couple of requests. Anything for you. First one. Okay. Would it be possible for Brandy to recap or even Wells recap the name of whatever your favorite thing is. Whatever you're talking about.

After the five minute rant about whether it's good or bad, can you just say again what it is? Because I don't remember at that point. You know you can press the rewind button. Just saying. Okay. Fair enough. Fair enough.

Noted. Noted. Remember, I just don't remember what it was anymore. And sometimes I just want to watch it or I want to see it or I want to read the book. And number two, if you can't do that, maybe put it in the description. That would be really awesome as well. I think it is.

Might be. It's on the website. I want to see what the 369, i think that's what it was or the mandela effect i'm gonna look them up because i'm interested but there was some something else i don't remember what it was now and i just now i have to go and i have to go watch the show again and i just don't have time for that i would love to have time for that but i don't so maybe if you could put that in the you know like description that would be awesome. What else? One last thing. This isn't really a request, but more of a problem or issue that I have. And it's not particularly

with you guys, but what is going on with Bachelor in Paradise? Why am I going to be watching the Bachelor in Paradise in the middle of the holiday season? Why am I going to be watching Bachelor in Paradise alongside Christmas shows? Yep. Why am I going to be watching it? The summer is done.

I agree. It's over. 100% agree with you. The summer is done. I love the summer. The summer is done. It's over. I don't want it anymore.

Yeah. Fair. I don't want the summer anymore. Okay. We get it. I don't want to be watching Bernie versus Jason in Halloween. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I want every season. Yeah. Every anymore. Okay. I don't want to be watching Bernie versus Jason in Halloween. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I want every

season, every season, every holiday. Okay, okay, okay. Got it, got it, got it, got it. With Christmas stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It just doesn't go. Oh, I understand. It doesn't blend. Got it. So maybe you can like talk to, I know well you have all the connections. Yeah, no, I don't. Maybe like say,

I know if I'm thinking it, other people must be thinking it. Everyone is. No one wants that now. I know. Okay. And I no, I don't. Everyone is. I know. Okay. This is an insanely long... He does. I did. Very true. I agree. I agree! I agree. I agree. Also, what the fuck is happening here needs to stop

because I can't get it out of my head for the first hour after watching the show. So maybe, like, maybe one more time and then phase it out. Okay. And I think that's it. We've got to find out this guy's name. Okay. That's it. So simple things. I'll be happy. Love you guys. Best show in the world. Wow. He wanted it. So simple things. I'll be happy. Love you guys.

My good buddy, Daniel Ellsworth. He's in a band called Daniel Ellsworth and the Great Lakes. He's also in a great band called Dark Minds that you've heard a lot on television.

here for it because I don't have to stay up until 3am per use, but come hang at Harriet's on November 11th and then in a couple weeks I'll be coming out to LA for Thanksgiving. Well, that Harriet's party sounds like it starts out at a darty and then turns into a narty.

It does, in fact, seem that way, does it not? It's straddlingy and then turns into a narty. It does in fact seem that way, does it not? It's straddling the line of darty to narty. That's awesome.
