Summary

Question for the YFT’ers: how many TSA pre-check programs does one human really need, and for the love of God, when will the day come that we can keep our shoes on?? Oh, and Brandi is back! She survived Nashville’s winter storm — three days without power, a house at 41 degrees, and two generators courtesy of hero Matt. All farm animals accounted for. Whew.

Meanwhile, it’s gut-check time for Brandi (literally) as she finally gets answers about her tummy troubles — turns out it’s a full diet rethink, and bland is the new black. Your duo talks Grammys fashion, debates whether anyone still cares about award shows, and rolls through fave things: Traitors drama, His & Hers, Bridgerton, Tell Me Lies, Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Only The Brave, and The Pitt. Plus a new society rule — once you hit 70, no more commenting on social media (hi mom!) — and Wells vows to stay out of trouble and send more flowers. Good rule!
