Ladies and gentlemen of the Lightweights podcast welcome to the great episode with Wells Adams. What's up?

Thanks for being here. Of course. Why is it called the Lightweights?

Because I feel like, okay, this is my perception of it. Okay. So I feel like if you had heavy weights, it would be like, like, a-list, like,

Gen Aniston, the yoga caprio, and the Lightweights are like, all right, let's get like

people who are on the fringe of celebrity. No, no, no, no, okay. It's because I can't handle my alcohol. Oh, I black out real quick.

Do you still drink? No, I'm for occasion. Yeah, but it's like a three-day event because I have to drink and then recover and then recover a second day. Yeah.

So it's just I try not to. Yeah, unless it's like a good event. I know. That's the problem. Yeah. I'm the same way. I'm a cheap drunk, but I'm a really, here's the problem.

I might have like an actual, like, drinking issue, but I'm such a, like, fun and happy drunk that no one's ever been like, dude, you need to cool it.

Yeah. And even times when I do black out, um, I'll be like, to my wife, I'll be like, what's that bad? And she'll be like, you're the life of the party.

Everyone loves you. Like, you have nothing to be nervous about. You make new friends that you find out the next day or like, who'd I talk to?

Yeah, like, I have no recollection of that person. Yeah. So yeah. Uh, yeah, I'm the same way. I, but I, so here's the thing. This is what I do. I grant myself, like, one night a week of, like, I can go out and, like, have a couple glasses.

Other than that, like, I try to keep it cool. Oh, I need to do that, which is ironic, because I, my job is to get people drunk on a TV show.

Oh, bartender. Yeah. We have a lot in common as well. Okay. You met your wife through Instagram DMs. Great. Yeah. So did I. Really?

You asked for the family's blessing. So did I. Nice. That's common. You got married on August 20th, 2022. Yeah. I got married August 20th, 2023.

Really? One year apart. Wow. We're the same anniversary. Did you just celebrate anniversary? Yeah. We didn't. We did. We didn't. Um, we, uh, she was in, in Fiji filming Love Island. And I wasn't there. Like, I, I came out and visited her, like, the first week of the show. No, no, no. She did two stints. So, like, the second stint when she went back, I was there the first week of it. So I had to come back home for.

Like, other stuff. And yeah, we were not together on our anniversary. But she's made some cock-a-manly plan that we're going to have our anniversary now in October, because that was like our, um, deciding to be boyfriend girlfriend anniversary. So I still got to get like a gift and do like romantic stuff. Do you have an idea of what you're going to do? Well, the first one's paper. Oh, okay. Yeah. Oh, I got to get into that stuff. Yeah. I mean, I, I mean, I think it's a good way of, I like, I like that.

That paper is the first one because it's like, we know you're broke. So write a letter, you know, like something heartfelt. Yeah. Yeah. And, and like, we're not broke, but like that wedding killed us. Like, we'll never financially recover from that thing.

So yeah. So I was thinking, there was a, there was a time, which I was like, maybe like a signed first edition of a book. Like, you know, something really cool like that.

But those are expensive. I've come to find that that's also expensive. Yeah. I had a Harry Potter first edition. Really?

My dad gave me and at the end of high school and the summer came, I left it in my locker because I don't read anyway.

And I, the janitor took it. He went back to school trying to get it. Can't find it anymore. So I have to try and buy a new one, cost a fortune. Yeah. Yeah.

That janitor no longer works there. He's living on that book. He's now in Bocavista, live in high in the hog. You know, speaking of that Sarah's dad, Ed, who's an actor, a great one at that is Dumbledore on Broadway.
