Computer's taking forever to boot up. Computer, you do this every day. What's the deal? Maybe some days computers have bad days too, you know? Does anyone know how to use the defrost function on a microwave? I'm convinced no one knows how to do that. No one's

ever successfully done that, right? That's a fact of life. I think the buttons don't do anything and they put it on the machine for people to be like wow it's got defrost function but no one's ever able to successfully defrost anything i think it's bs and i don't like it microwave companies do better or just say hey listen we can't actually we don't have the technology to actually defrost anything we kind of we've kind of making it up our time you know for being honest the popcorn function let's just start with a timer on it you know sorry for lying to you guys for so long but you know we're trying to sell a lot of units got to get a lot of them microwaves out there we had to play

with your emotions about technology uh let's call it a brand ding-a-ling-a-ding. Bing-bong-boom. Hello. Yo. What's up? What are you doing? Oh, me? I'm just enjoying something very underrated that people don't talk about enough. Oyster crackers.

Wow. They're so bomb. So they're just like, basically they're small saltines. Yeah, but they're better than regular saltines because they're small. I know. I don't like the name of them. I guess because they look like oysters. Yeah, they resemble them.

Yeah, but do you put them in soups? Oh, yeah, that's what I got them for. And I had soup earlier, and I totally forgot about the oyster crackers. So I was like, I can't totally ignore them. I just got to have a few. Yeah, you're just raw just raw dawing some oyster crackers. Yeah. They're pretty great. Wow. It's your mouth dry. I have some water. Well, that's good. Yummy. You know, I'm a big soup guy speaking of oyster crackers. And so I went and searched different soup delivery methods, you know?

Yes. Do those exist? Kind of. I found one and they never sent me anything. I was like, yeah, sorry, you know, due to COVID, I shut down the plant and then it was like, we just, we did it like, it was like a week later. I'm like, okay.

And then like a week later, they're like, sorry, we don't have enough workers because of COVID. And I was like, man, soup game is being ravaged by Omicron right now. Well, a lot of things are being ravaged by Omicron. Yeah. So anyway, so I, I never got my soup. Well, I would like to say that soup is pretty easy to make, but what do I know? I don't cook. Here's the thing.

Soup is pretty easy to make. It just takes a long time. Well, don't you put it in like a crock pot or like a slow cooker? Those terms sound right. Yeah. I mean, you can do that. Also, they just leave it there all day. Isn't that what the people do?

Yeah. Set it and forget it. Yeah, exactly. See, cooking wells knows what's up that's kind of lazy also it shouldn't be called this is america shouldn't be called slow cooker by the way that should be called rapid fire cooking because that shit goes fast bro oh wait no no no i'm thinking of um cut that that was stupid uh what are you thinking of an air fr fryer? No, I was thinking of, what is it? It's pressurized. I don't know. Oh, God.

We've got one. A pressure cooker? Pressure cooker. There it is. There it is. I don't even cook and I know. I know these terms. I'm doing a brand deal for a wine company.

Ooh, love a good brand deal. Love a good brand deal. Pay them bills. Yeah, a lot of bills, y'all. And I love a good brand deal that has to do with alcohol. Yeah, because they pay lots of bills. They got the bills and they want me to use their wine to cook with. And I'm like, wow.

Oh, that's kind of cool. I am really, I've consolidated my, my TV brand, cooking show host, bartender host into one. So it's all good in the hood. Um, how you doing? Um, pretty good. You know, just getting through this Monday. Yeah.

Just had a little energy drink about an hour ago so that I was all set for the pod. A Celsius? You know it. My favorite. We gotta get sponsor us goodbye or like is there another energy drink similar to celsius that like you know is there like a truly to the white cloth that we need to get on board with you know i mean i've tried a bunch of energy drinks, and I gotta say, Celsius is my favorite. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

A lot of people are drinking that Bang energy drink. Bang. Have you seen that? Yeah. Bang. I've seen it. It's fine. I'm not an energy drink guy.

I wasn't either before this, because, like, the Red Bulls and the Rockstars, they, like, burn my stomach lighting. Like, I can feel it, you know? Celsius, not so much. Yeah. Hits me just right. Well, I know I've had them and I like them,

but yeah, I'd like them to sponsor us. That'd be great. You know? And hey, Celsius, if you need me to incorporate your energy drink into an alcoholic beverage or some sort of food product, I can probably do it, all right? Yeah.

I mean, there's probably a lawsuit waiting to happen mixing with alcohol, but yeah. I don't think so. What are you talking about? Red Bull vodka. Red Bull vodka. Red Bull is making it work. Yeah.

Can we just start the show off with this? Do you know what Wordle is? I do not. Okay. I'm nervous to tell you about Wordle. Is it a kid's toy? It's like a word game on your phone. And you get like five different lines to guess the word.

And it shows you how many letters are in the word. And then you could type in like, I don't know, whatever word it is. You think the word's proud. If you get the letter right in the right position, it's green. If you get a letter right, but it's in the wrong position, it's like yellow.

And if you get the letter wrong, it's red or something. That sounds very confusing. And then you get five chances to figure out the word. How do people have this much free time? Anyways, I'm amazed you haven't seen it because everyone fucking posts their little screenshot of them getting their wordle correct.

And I did this on my Instagram and it's just gotten worse. And the problem is, is that I ended up talking about this on my Instagram and then Sarah was like, what are you talking about? And then she downloaded wordle and now she's fucking doing it too. No one cares about your wordle, okay? So stop posting it.

Stop telling people. It's such a humble brag. Oh, great, you're smart. You figured out a word game. Bravo. Let's not do it anymore, guys. Let's stop. Let's enjoy winning for yourself, not for others, okay?

No more wordle posts, please. Not trying to yuck your yum but no one cares someone sounds jealous yeah i don't have time for the wordle i definitely don't have time for the wordle i um i just got told that i have to start tiktok so like what little free time i had is now i guess going to tiktok telling man, it's the future. I know. Tis the future. And I go there reluctantly. Yeah.

Well, it's funny because you were on it before, then you got off it, now you're back on? It's just so overwhelming. I know. I hear you. Yeah. I was talking to Liz before I called you. Do you know how to use the defrost button on the microwave?

Or is that something that no one knows how to do? I don't know how to do that. Yeah. I feel like when I defrost something, I put it in hot water in the sink. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I'm sorry, in the microwave, there's a defrost button. And it'll be like, all right, how many pounds is this food? And you're like, I don't know, one pound. And then you put that in.

And it'll ask you all these questions. And then it defrosts. You do it. You try it. And it never works. And I think it's a scam. I just think that they put the button on there because people would be like,

ooh, it's got the defrost button function, but it never really did anything and it worked. We all bought it thinking, well, I'm gonna defrost everything. No one's defrosted a single thing in their entire life in the microwave. It's just a selling point. Exactly, try to get you every time.

Are you taking a picture of me? Of Azzy girl because she's so cute. Oh. You're in it though. Well that's good. Alright well. Wanna go? Wanna start? Yeah we should start the show. Yeah yeah yeah. Go for it. Bros and hoes. You're listening to your favorite thing podcast

Code YOURFAVORITETHING. Do it. You want to start with Batch? We can, yeah. Okay. I felt like the episode was kind of boring. Eh, I kind of agree. Like, I'm over the Sine shit.

Can we move on? There's a part of me that's like, all you girls are kind of agree. Like I'm over the Sine shit. Can we move on? There's a part of me that's like all you girls are kind of two-faced because they all hate Sine, but no one steps up for Elizabeth, you know, before Elizabeth doesn't get the rose. I don't know if they're two-faced. I think it's so obvious, like if you've seen the show before, that like talking about drama is like not a good look, right? that like talking about drama is like not a good look, right? Like people that are usually, even if you're confronting the drama and it's the right thing to do and you're in the right, it still puts you in like a distasteful like spot.

So I feel like those girls probably are just like, well, I don't want to be that girl because that girl always goes home and whatever. And so everyone tried to stay silent and then clearly it just got so bad. And I do think, I think everyone, including me, was truly shocked that he picked Sinead over Elizabeth, that he didn't see right through that. You know what I mean? I'm happy that he did because I want her there longer, obviously.

She's great. There's just a lot of girls of whom I still don't know their names. Oh, yeah. That's always – that's what happens well so what happens first so the shrimp gate 2022 is the dumbest fucking thing in the world how are we not calling her shrimp fingers like scallop fingers i don't know i mean i'm sure we're gonna think of something great in paradise you know like she's coming down the steps with a platter of fucking you know scrimps for sure but but i guess he's kind of right shanae does uses a tactic that a lot of people that are good at arguing do where they change the subject from what the argument is to something that is

incorrect in the person that you're arguing with thing. And then hyper focus on that, even though that's not what you guys are arguing about, you know? Yeah. Well, yeah, she was kept saying she's lying about the hot tub. Yeah.

That wasn't, that wasn't the OG problem. Yeah, exactly. Okay. So maybe I am like, but here's the thing. She was lying about the hot tub.

Why did she do that? I don't even know. I was like, maybe I was in the hot tub. I don't know. You know, like, what? So confusing. I don't know if Clayton's a true team player when it comes to the show.

And is this like, yeah, whatever. We'll keep her around. She's great. Or if she really is that good at manipulating him. I feel like he's getting manipulated hard. By who? Production or Sinead? Honestly, probably both.

Yeah. Probably both. The whole thing with Sinead and like crashing the after party after the football date. Mm-hmm. So there's no way that she heard those girls talking about her and just so happened to have a camera in her room and then like went to the wall and listened. Like that's not, that didn't happen.

Well, obviously if she was really napping, there wouldn't be a camera in there. Exactly. Yeah. But they needed to have some reason to send her to this after party. Because if she was like, I think that they're talking about me, you'd be like, well, you can't go. You can't was like, I think that they're talking about me, you'd be like, well, you can't go.

You can't go if you, of course you've got to think. But like her having this knowledge of they're talking about me and I have to go defend myself thing is what gave her like the kind of green light to be able to go. Even though that never happened. That was definitely something they filmed afterwards.

I bet you a million dollars. I could see yeah and then so they also so clayton everyone says clayton really weird i don't know if you pick up on that but well a couple of the girls say like clayton yeah like they really enunciate the t clayton it's very interesting yeah and then he goes on that date with that one girl, the pilot. Rachel, I love her. Yeah, I didn't even know she was on the show. What do you mean? Yes, you did.

Because you were like, are you a flight instructor? Are you flight student? You can't be both. What are you? That's true. I did say that. You did know about her. It was just a weird date.

Like, they went horseback riding and then they fucking crashed someone's barbecue. Okay. Yeah. What an awkward date, number one. Number two, what family is that? Who are these random people? And what incentive do they have to sign up to be on The Bachelor?

Like, it was the weirdest date like I think I've ever seen on this show. Yeah, just say that those are like the cowboys at the stable and they're having a barbecue and you're bringing the horses back and you're eating with like, we came across this family during COVID times

and we're going to come crash the party? No, excuse me. No, thank you. It was super weird, I thought. Really weird. It looked good, but I was just like, we could have come up with a better story for this one. Had to.

Or just like have a picnic, you know? Yeah. I didn't really get that. And then. Agree. Yeah. And then they go to dinner and I tell you, they both, they fucking deserve each other. They both talk like they're in a God dang Nicholas Sparks book.

Everything they say is like so ridiculously romantic. You're just like, no one talks like this oh yeah i gotta love her i love them together i will never dim your light shut the fuck up dude oh i know i will never dim your light oh my god great line clayton but but come on like you owe Nicholas Sparks some money oh and then they have their date like he's like I just gotta know I gotta get to the bottom of something are you so

perfect and still looking for a man okay we got it we got it you're Nicholas Sparks you know he's like I got one more surprise for you and it's always some obscure country band no one's ever heard of before. You know? Yeah. Is it just me?

You probably didn't even notice this. Is it just me? Or was there a female vocal in the harmony and no one on stage? There was a lot of things that was happening that was not on stage. I was like, I hear a pedal steal. Ain't no one up there with the dough, bro, bro. I'm hearing harmonies. You're right about that.

Yeah. Like electric guitar. I was like, this is just a track. Like, why are we even pretending that you're. And also the guy never strummed the guitar. Not a single time. He just held it. Kills me.

Oh, my God. kills me oh my god and it was just like such the like music row bro band that they threw together there are frat guys from georgia then that moved to nashville they all the same haircut they look related yeah and it was what was the name of the band like reckless reckless rowdy rumble bunch oh yeah like reckless road maybe which i was confused because there's also a band called Temecula Road. Yeah. There's too many country artists. I don't know. Yeah.

Stop using roads in all of your band names and songs. Yeah. Body Like a Back Road. Okay. We love that one, though. Only that dude can get away with fucking calling a girl's body a dirt road and people be like,

oh, it's so sexy. Oh, Sam Hunt. Your face is like a tractor. Your body's like a back road. Oh, Sam, tell me more beautiful things. Okay, that's not the song. I know, but it's just like the next one.

Sam's better than that. Any other country artist, sure. Titties like bean bags. Okay. I hated how it ended because I want some finality to it. I want to know what happens to Sinead. Everyone goes hard in the paint on her and doesn't seem to fluster Clayton at all. He's making out with her on the bar.

I know. I think she's going to stick around. I think so too. I do feel bad for Clayton because this happens every season. And Clayton's like one of the first bachelors in recent times that hasn't reached out before the show and was like, hey, what should I expect? There's going to be one person that everyone's not going to like and you're not going to understand why. And then when you watch it back, you're going to be like, ooh, I look like an idiot. And this is this going to understand why. And then when you watch it back, you're going to be like, ooh, I look like an idiot. And this is this for him.

Right. And now he has to deal with like everyone being like, what are you thinking? I would love to know what he is thinking. You're never as crazy as you seem to be on TV. And you're never as nice as you seem to be on TV. It's always somewhere in the middle. That's true. I'm excited to meet her.

I love Shrimp Gate 2022. Anything else on the batch? I don't really think much else happened. I was dying at the Olympian chick, just like crushing everyone in football. It was everything. And just taking it so seriously. I loved it so much. Yeah.

And by the way, I want some royalties, ABC.c i was in they showed a flashback of me in there i saw a glimpse of your curly hair on there yeah i was like some royalties baby your royalties are screen time okay and even that is precious screen time that's about as much screen time as i usually get about four seconds sounds right i just feel like there's not a whole lot of girls that I got. They've like made us feel invested in, you know, like I feel like maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it's still like super early in the season, but I feel like like by now, usually you have at least like one person with like a good sob story that really opens up that you're really rooting for.

And so far I haven't really heard that. Yeah. So, I mean, I do like Rachel the pilot a lot. I do like Susie. I really like Serene. And I think she's getting the next one on one, right? Yeah, she is. Did they kind of say that?

So I'm kind of excited to hear more about her because I feel like he really likes her. Yeah. We did see a little bit more of Teddy than we've been seeing. I'm just not that invested in anyone. Hopefully, once the Sinead saga ends, then we can get more invested in these women. But I got to be honest with you, Sinead's kind of carrying the show right now for us. Yeah, she is for real. There's another girl. She's one of the blonde chicks. And I swear to God, every time she's on camera, she's crying.

Oh, I know. I love her. Always crying. And not about something like, you know, Ashley, I would always cry about something stupid. Like, I feel like it's really not about anything stupid. It's just like that she's so emotional at all times and like so insecure and just I feel so bad for her. But I'm like, girl, you gotta stop crying. Yeah. Like that's you gotta pull it together. All right.

Well, I think that's probably enough batch. I don't know. We'll see what happens next week. Hopefully Sine sticks around. I don't know where we're going without Sinead. I know. You got some fave things, bro? Bro, I feel like I've watched a lot of TV,

but like nothing really that great. I binged season two of Cheer. Okay. Did you watch season one? I watched season one, loved it. Loved it, right? Yeah. Loved season one. It took a while. I would say it took about halfway into this season for me to feel like it was as good what they do and i get i get it it's like

all right where do we get where do we go from season one like you have to introduce new characters and i get that but you know a lot of this season was about trinity valley community college which is their their rival like down the street i don't want to ruin it for you, but once you get to the end, you kind of see why that they showed so much about that school. I don't know if it was they didn't go deep enough into the stories about those individual kids that I just didn't feel like as gravitated towards those kids as I did the kids on the Navarro team. Like, I don't know.

Like, I just feel like Lexi, the blonde girl, the Tumblr from last year, like she was just so open and you just learned so much about her life and Morgan too that I feel like it really, really like became bonded with those girls and really invested in them. And you didn't really get that on anybody for anybody on the other team. So I don't know. It was kind of weird. There was also a lot of like kind of like dark side stories going on. Like did you do you know about Jerry? Yeah.

I don't know where I was, but I don't really remember that all going on. Like, did you, do you know about Jerry? Yeah. I don't know where I was, but I don't really remember that all going on. So they obviously touch a lot on that. And also like Monica has some falling out with, with Darius is his name. She has like a huge falling out with him and it's like very emotional and just like kind of heavy. So it was, it was definitely a heavier season, I thought.

Worth it or not? Yeah. I mean, I, I loved it, but I wouldn't go into it expecting it to be as great as season one. Yeah. Yeah. All right, cheers, season two. I got something that's absolutely fantastic and you need to watch it.

Oh, you do. I do. It's on Apple TV Plus. What's it called? The After Party. Oh, I just saw, they have a couple of really good things coming out. Well, this is one of them. Here's the tag. When a high school reunion's after party ends in a death, everyone is a suspect.

A detective grills the former classmates one by one, uncovering potential motives as each tells their version of the story, accumulating in the shocking truth, the after party. Listen to this. That sounds great. Listen to this cast. The detective is Tiffany Haddish, okay? Who's probably been having to deal with some detectives in her personal life right now.

So Dave Franco plays this character, Xavier. They're all coming back. Love him. They're all coming back for their high school reunion. And Dave Franco is famous now. He's a famous musician and actor and everything. He comes in on a helicopter. And so he's flexing on everyone for his high school reunion.

Another character named Sam that's played by Sam Richardson is still in love with his high school crush. And so he's like, I'm going to go to this high school reunion. I'm going to hook up with her. But then like Dave Franco's character is also hitting on her and Dave Franco's character ends up having an after party. And so everyone goes back there. And on the first episode, Dave, I'm not going to ruin it for you, but Dave Franco dies.

And then it's everyone. So that, so theniffany haddish sits everyone down so like everyone's got their kind of own episode it seems so like the first one is with sam richardson's character who tells his version of what happened and then like ike baron holtz's character who's on mad tv he has his interview and he's the villainized by everyone but then when you hear his side of the story, it's not that way. And then Ilana Glazer who is in Arrested Development,

she's in it. Ben Schwartz who everyone kind of knows from I want to say Parks and Rec is in it. Like the cast is insanely good. And the show is so funny and like it's a great whodunit.

So you're telling me Dave Franco is only in one episode? No, he's in every episode because they're reliving everyone's perception of it. So he is the focal point. So he's in every episode, but he's dead in the first one. Interesting. Yeah. Okay. Anyways, The After Party.

Great freaking show. I think there's only three episodes out right now, maybe. The next one comes out on the 4th on Friday. Have you seen the preview for Suspicion? Oh, I think so. It's Uma Thurman's new show. Oh, really? Yeah.

I'll let you read the synopsis in your little movie voice. What's this on? Apple TV+. Okay. Five ordinary Brits are accused of kidnapping the son of a prominent U.S. media mogul. They embark on a desperate race

against time to prove their innocence. But will anyone believe them? And are they telling the truth? Suspicion. That sounds pretty good. So it's the same producers that did, do you remember the Americans?

Yeah. The Americans, they did that. And also one of the producers from Watchmen. Oh, yeah. My buddy Kunal's in it. Yeah, it looks pretty good. So I'm excited about that. Awesome.

Well, yeah, Apple TV Plus, I feel like is starting to put out the hits. They do great things. That comes out on Friday as well. So we finished Ozark. Did you finish Ozark? I just started it yesterday. Okay, so I just need you to know on the front end that

this is part one of the season finale. Right. I didn't realize that and I was annoyed. I'm glad because then we get more episodes. I know, but when does that happen?

When do we get more episodes coming our way? Probably going to be a minute. I know. Don't you think? Yeah. It's good. Okay. But I'm going to stick with what I said earlier.

Marty's going to keep on making deals until he's all the way to Putin. And then who else does he make a deal with after that? The devil? You know? Yeah. His son is turning out to be a piece of shit. Is he? Or does his son realize that his to be a piece of shit. Is he? Or does his son realize that his mother's a piece of shit?

Well, that's absolutely true. We were talking about this, and I think that Marty is the smartest. And then I think his son is the second smartest. And then I think Ruth's the third smartest. Oh. And then I think it's the mom. Yeah. Which means I think the mom's gonna die.

And the daughter's just useless. She's just here to look pretty and have great hair. Yeah, the daughter just wants to go back to Chicago and live her life, you know? I don't blame her. Yeah. I don't blame her. But yeah, I'm telling you, man, the kid's too smart and the kid does not like the mom anymore and I'm telling you,

man, and once the kid realizes that the mom doesn't give a fuck about family, he understood his pecking order. I'm telling you, he's gonna kill that. He's gonna kill his mom. That's my theory on it. Or he's gonna get her killed or something's gonna happen

where it's gonna be him versus her and he's gonna have to choose himself. That'd be crazy. I know. Wow. You know what? I did start and finish and binged it real quick. What's that?

Have you seen the woman in the house across the Street from The Woman in the Window? No, but wasn't that like, wasn't Amy Adams just in that movie? Okay. Well, that's the whole point. This is like a loose parody of all of the novels that are like The Woman in the Window, The Woman in Cabin 10, the woman across the street, the one it's like, it's a parody that it's meant to be funny.

It reminds me a lot of, um, what's the show that Christina Applegate's in the, with James Marsden, but it's Kristen Bell is the lead and she's phenomenal. Uh, I was actually, I was either reading or watching,

I think reading like an interview she did. And she was saying that like dead to me, it reminds me a bit of dead to me. Yeah. She was saying that, you know, it's all the actors are like, it's a pretty good cast. And she was saying, you know, we were all struggling with finding the fine line between like, of being very good at bad acting, you know? Cause she was like, the lines are so bad that you have to be so good that you deliver them badly. And she was like, it took us all a while to figure it out. And, uh, she was like, but I, you know, I, she was like, I think we nailed it. She says we all had fun with it and we think it's really great. But she did say that she was like, it was tough at first to read these terrible lines as a great actor. Like you really

have to like find that fine line or whatever. But my favorite character, I don't even seen it, but my favorite character is the male stripper. I think he's fucking hysterical. His lines were so absurd and he delivered all of them with the straightest face. Like he was so serious about it. It was everything. When a handsome neighbor moves in across the street, Anna, a heartbroken woman for whom every day is the same, starts to see a light at the end of the tunnel. That is, until she witnesses a gruesome murder. Or did she?

That's how it is. So the whole way it starts out, the premise is Kristen Bell's character is divorced. Her daughter died tragically. And it opens with her like pouring herself a glass of wine with like just pouring the entire bottle and filling the glass. And this is what she does. She just like drinks bottle by bottle. She's a complete alcoholic. And she's taking like all these pills prescribed by her therapist. And, and he's like, you know, you're

not supposed to mix with alcohol. And she's like, Oh, I'm not. And she's like popping pills and downing them with alcohol. I get talking. It's hilarious. Um, and so, and it like literally starts out, like, if you don't know, it's a parody, it starts out and you're like, what the heck? Because you find out really quick how her daughter dies and her daughter is murdered and eaten by a serial killer. And they say it's so serious. She's like, she was murdered and eaten. And she's just sobbing. And you're like, what? Is this real?

Then you figure out really quickly it's supposed to be funny. But I really, really loved it. I thought it was great. I like when shows are self-aware. Yeah, it's really good. I finished another book. Is it the woman in the window? No.

Is it the woman in the cabin? No. Is it the woman in the cabin? No. Is it the woman in the car? Is it the girl on the train? Is it Gone Girl? No, it's a book called A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor. So do you remember when I read, I was telling you all about the book, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing by Hankank green who's john green's brother and i absolutely loved the first book and i found there was a second one and then i ripped

the second one it is so good it's so fun if you're into sci-fi if you like like ready player one you need to go read both of these books it's like ready player One meets like an alien movie with a cool crew of millennial Gen Xers or Gen Zers as the protagonist. And then there also is like this whole political aspect that like is very, very revealing of what's happening today. It's so freaking good. And Hank Green, well done, man. I know your brother's like known as the author, but like you killed it. So an absolutely remarkable thing. And then the second one,

a beautifully foolish endeavor. Go read them now. Very elaborate titles of his books. Yeah, I agree. But it's better than like girl and girl across the street. Girl with binoculars. Funny. You know what I was thinking about the other day what's that i think it would be kind of fun to be a flat earther you know why because then you just have people arguing with you 24 yeah like it's such a ridiculous thing that like it would be kind of fun to be like, I'm holding firm on this flat earth thing.

Every dinner party you'd go to, you'd have something interesting to talk about. You know, everyone would be like, oh, you know, well, is the flat earth? Or everyone would be like, tell me about it. Like, what? Tell me all the things. You know? Yeah. Like, what are the crazy things that you believe that, like, makes this true in your life?

I just think it would be so fun to believe something so silly. And maybe I need that. I need that in my life. Because everyone, I feel like everyone in this world right now has got, like, some crazy, weird conspiracy. And I don't really have one. You need a conspiracy, yeah. I need a bad conspiracy. But I don't want one that like makes me lose family or friends.

We don't want one that's serious. Yeah, I don't want like a political one or like a vaccine one. I don't need that. But I just want like some ridiculous thing like. We've already got the real ones, Scott. Yeah, exactly. I want a fun one. Like the moon landing isn't real or something. i can't get on board with that i think that's real

i don't know i need the why i'm here to suggest some weird but also unproblematic conspiracy theory for me to have because i want one okay wow i don't know i was reading about this uh theory i think it's in it's considered in a box universe and it's called the sausage effect have you heard this no so i'm probably gonna do a bad job of explaining this but in this theory of the universe everything that has happened everything that will happen is preordained and then the way that like our minds are able to perceive time is we get to experience like this moment and this moment and this moment and this moment. In reality, the fourth dimension is all like one long thing. We are always going to do all these things or whatever, which sucks because then it takes out choice, I guess, and fate, I suppose. But then there is this kind of like beautiful way of looking at it. So like, so instead of like, you're just this person sitting in this,

I'm this person sitting in this chair right here, really like I'm this elongated version of myself through time. Like after this, I'm going to get up and walk downstairs. I'm going to go get some food or whatever. I'm going to go sit on the couch and like that kind of sausage kind of moves through the house, if you will. And so it's kind of sad because it takes with the idea of choice, but it's kind of awesome because then everyone that comes in contact with you in the past or in the future or have always been a

part of you, no matter what. You and I meeting, whatever it was in 2015, you were always a part of my life before that. And even if like we never talked again, you'd always be a part of my life after that because we came in contact with one another. You're like part of my sausage, which sounds weird, but which is kind of a wonderful way of trying to understand why we're all connected in some way, shape or form. Yeah.

And I'm probably not right. I'm doing probably a terrible job of explaining it, but I thought that was a kind of a cool way of thinking about like how we are all interconnected. But we don't even realize it because maybe we can't perceive time in the way that time actually is as a fourth dimensional thing. I thought that was neat. That is neat. I was trying to explain that drunkenly last night to my brother.

And he was like, what the fuck is wrong with you? Were you drunk watching football? Yes. We watched the foosball. Two great games, I must say. Great games. And your mom was at the game. Yes, she was.

She's a big Rams fan these days. I didn't know that. She's such a bandwagon fan, but like, I'm all for it. Yeah, you know, live your life, sister. Live your life, Tizzle. Gotta do it. I do have one more thing that I watched. I forgot about it.

Oh, what is it? Have you seen The Fallout on HBO Max? Oh, that sounds familiar. It's a movie. Pull it up so you can read the thing. So, so crazy. So the director of The Fallout is a girl named Megan Park. And Megan and I used to be really good friends.

She actually, when I very first started my old band, Frank and Daryl, I don't know if anyone here was around long enough to remember that when I started Frank and Daryl, it wasn't just a duo. Like it, it turned into just Cody and I, but when we first started it, we were a trio and Megan was in my band, Frank and Daryl. And we did like three part harmonies and stuff. And then once Cody and I decided to take it more seriously and like get the record deal and everything, Megan was an actress at the time. And she was on a huge show called The Secret Life of the American Teenager. And so she obviously stepped away from the band to focus on acting. And Cody and I went and did the music thing. And I always knew she's a fabulous actress. And I always knew that she was like wanted to

direct eventually and everything. And this is her directing. And i think she wrote it uh it's her debut her directing and writing debut and it's got the bowens in it she's the mom and um with maddie ziegler the dancer she's in it shailene woodley's in it shailene plays the therapist which is funny because megan and shay were on uh secret life together and i know they've stayed friends so that's pretty i'm sure megan i'm sure shay did that you know, for Megan, which is super cool. I love how close they still are. Um, and then the lead is Jenna Ortega and I know she's been in some things. She is phenomenal in this. Like it's starts out very heavy and this doesn't really give anything away cause it happens very quickly, but it's basically about these two girls that go through a school shooting and the beginning of

it's very heavy. It's all, it's all pretty heavy, but at the beginning of it is very heavy. And these two girls who have nothing in common, they're so different. Um, obviously, you know, bond over experiencing this tragedy together. And, um, it's just kind of a, it's a little bit of a coming of age story, but it's just about the relationship that they form and what they go through after, you know, going through the shooting. And, uh, it's just, I I shooting. And it's just, I'm so impressed. I haven't talked to Megan in years. I need to text her. I'm very impressed with it.

I thought she did an amazing job. You know, Ortega was in You. Who was she in You? She's like the little girl that is kind of groomed. Which season? Not the most recent one, the one before that. She's like kind of being groomed by Chris D'Elia. I don't know if you remember that. And then he comes in. Not really. And then Penn like kind of being groomed by Chris D'Elia. I don't know if you remember that.

And then he comes in. And then Penn Badgley comes in and kills Chris D'Elia. I can't really remember. But anyway, she's amazing. Yeah. She's going to be a big star one day. That day is today, I think. That day is today.

By the way, I got to give a shout out to Rafa Nadal. The ups and downs of the Australian Open, guys. I don't want to talk a lot of tennis out there, but listen, it was stressful. Did you hear about all that happened? No. Just for everyone to understand. There are three tennis players in the world right now that are the best hands down. You have Roger Federer, who has 20 Grand Slam titles. I've heard of him. You have Rafael Naderer, who has 20 Grand Slam titles.

I've heard of him. You have Rafael Nadal, who has 20 Grand Slam titles. I haven't really heard of him, to be honest. Well, he's Spanish and he's great. And you have Novak Djokovic, who has 20 Grand Slam titles. So all three of them. I have not heard of him. Okay.

Well, all three of them have the most Grand Slam titles in the history of the sport. And they're all playing at the exact same time, which is bonkers, by the way. So going into the Australian Open, obviously Australia is much stricter, I think, than a lot of countries when it comes to COVID. And, you know, they're like, if you're coming here to play the Australian Open,

you got to be vaccinated, yada, yada, yada. Well, there's this whole scandal where Novak Djokovic said he was vaccinated. Turns out he wasn't. He like forged his vaccination status. Comes in. He has COVID. He does a bunch of like meet and greets and probably spreads it around or whatever.

He gets basically kicked out of Australia because kind of being a dick, if you ask me. So he can't play in it. Okay. So Nadal is getting a little bit, getting a little long in the tooth. He's been around for a while, but he's a great player in his. Okay. So Nadal is getting a little bit, getting a little long in the tooth. He's been around for a while, but he's great player in his own right. And he gets the finals and he's going up against this guy named Medvedev, who's like this like Russian badass. Who's like kind of like the next wave and younger and taller and faster and stronger or whatever. And Rafa goes down two sets to love and I'm watching it and I'm like, it's over. Even like the announcers are

like, I don't think he's going to, he's going to be able to win this. You don't have to win three sets, right? He's down two sets to love. And he's down a break in the third. I turn off the, I changed the channel being like, this isn't, this is over, whatever. And then two hours later, I'm like watching SportsCenter. And It's like the greatest comeback in tennis history. Rafa Nadal comes back to win his 21st Grand Slam title and be the most decorated tennis player of all time. And just think the biggest shot Novak Djokovic took in his career was the one he didn't take in his arm. And it was like, ah, yeah. Anyways,

Roth Nadal. Wow. Yeah. Go sports. Go sports. I watch Eternals. What's that? It's like the newest MCU thing. It's on Disney+. It's got Angelina Jolie and Richard Madden, who

was in Game of Thrones, and Kit Harington, who was in Game of Thrones. And Kit Harington, who was in Game of Thrones. And Selma Hayek. It's a huge cast. I gotta say. Really? Yikes. Fell asleep.

Fell asleep. Fell asleep in it. Fell asleep. Oh, no. Fell asleep. So, I don't know. I mean, like, it's cool. And maybe it's, like, setting up cool movies to come out, and, like, they're going to be able to, like, go into, you know, the Marvel Cinematic Universe now, I guess.

But, uh, I don't know. I don't know. All right. Yeah. So, yeah. Did you ever watch season 2 of Too Hot or season 3 of Too Hot to Handle we started it today so I'm gonna need to come back and give you an update

on how I feel I would just love to know if you're rooting for any couples or who your faves are I'm not that far in to know that if I'm being honest far in to know that. Okay. If I'm being honest.

Okay. You want me to do some fuck you very muches? Yeah. Saw some good ones recently. I'm really enjoying the fuck you very muches. Keep them coming, YFTers. We love it. All right.

So five stars. Fuck you very much from Clay. All right. First off, Brandy, it's not that we don't care about your heartbreak. We just want to hear about it. All right. It's it's insane. It's quote insane. You think we wouldn't think of us YFT years as a shoulder you can cry on. Wells, I did cry. That's true. Wells, what the fuck? If Grandpa is gone, bring back Amazon reviews.

We should do that. Oh, we should do that. Oh, and if MT and Brandy are done, you need MT once a week so we can hear that sweet voice, love the podcast. Ooh. Is Sorry We're Stoned done? Well, you know, we've been on hiatus. This is a great point. Thank you for bringing this up. Because we have this stoner Facebook group, and everyone's up in arms on the Facebook group.

However, I will say shout out to the stoners that are plugging YFT because a lot of them are like, if you miss Brandy, she's on YFT every week with Wells and it's actually just as good. So we've been getting some free press in the – sorry, we're stoned Facebook group. Thank you very much. It's on hiatus. We took a hiatus in November to kind of get through the holidays. And that's just kind of, uh, unfortunately extended through January. So we're just trying to, um,

cross some T's and dots, my eyes before we decide where sorry, we're stoned is going. So as soon as we have an update for the stoners, we will give one. I will be in LA next week with tizzle. So we've already talked about pumping some content out for the stoners because we do miss them.

Nice. Yeah. All right. This is from White Claw Lady. Five stars. Fuck you very much. Great username. Great username.

Five stars. Fuck you very much. Gave Wells a white claw during the LPGA tournament. Was by far the most caring YFT-er of all. No mention of my grand gesture in the podcast. Spent the whole week waiting for. All of a sudden, this mid-aged chubby lady brings me a red raspberry white claw. I really needed that.

She knew not to bring me a lime one. My game took a turn on that moment. Ding, ding, ding. Has crying face emoji, crying face emoji, crying face emoji. Okay, by the way, lady, you are not chubby. You are beautiful. Second, I apologize. I should have said this, said something about this when I was recapping the tournament.

And to be honest with you, there was a couple women who brought me white clothes, if I'm being honest. Man, you really know your target audience, don't you? You weren't the only one, but I do remember you, and I thank you thank you and i love you so much that helped me a lot i do appreciate you i really do cute this is from autumn 1845 stars f you very much hey wells fuck you very much stop saying there's a new book i'm reading when we all know you don't read.

I suggested a trip to Orlando to watch a golf tournament, but really, I just wanted to meet Wells. I've only had the balls to ask one celebrity for a photo, Jonah Hill. He said, no, sorry. Whoa, Jonah. And I was so nervous to ask Wells, but I told myself

I'm so excited, in quotes. He said yes to a photo and was so kind and made my year. Wells, greater than sign, Jonah Hill. Oh, yeah. That is phenomenal. Phenomenal. Anyways, I think that's enough.

Oh, man. That's too good. There's YFTers that fucking, like the woman that didn't bring me a lime white cloth because she knows, that is. Dedicated. That's dedication, baby. See, this really has me pumped for a YFT tour. Are we allowed to talk about that? Oh, yeah.

So we teased it on Insta. Yeah. We've been talking about trying to figure out how to do a YFT tour. We teased on Insta, like where would you want it? Just to gauge interest, you know? Yeah. And so we're thinking like a New York, a Chicago, a Nashville, maybe a Denver, maybe a couple West coasters. Yeah. If you guys would really come and hang out with us and keep commenting on the Insta

and messaging us and letting us know because that gets us hype and that gets the team hype and that gives us the motivation we need to pull this off because it's going to be

a lot of work to pull it off. But we love y'all. And I just like, I love hearing stories like when Wells gets to meet you guys and I love meeting you guys when I see you

at my DJ shows and stuff. And I just think it would be so fun after all this time of podcasting for us to finally get to meet some of our dedicated listeners. Don't you? True that. Yeah, I'd be great. Also, I really just want to see Wells's stand up talents on stage during a live show. I want to see if he's as funny on the spot live as he is when he gets to edit it every week.

Yeah. I got to work on a couple minutes of material. I feel like I'm ready to go. You're coming out to LA for the Super Bowl? I'm coming to LA. Yeah. Speaking of meeting you guys at DJ shows, I am coming to LA, but first I'm stopping in Park City, Utah on February 5th, which is this coming weekend. And I'm DJing at my favorite place, the cabin. It's right on main street. And I've already had a YFT message me and be like, Oh my God, I'm in park city skiing that weekend. I'm so excited. Now I have Saturday night plans. So I've already got one at YFT on the guest list. So, um, if you guys want to come and hang, the cabin is so fun.
