Summary

We are hard-wired and sweating profusely this week YFT fam. Wells is in Costa Rica bartending for the stars while also worrying about unstable internet and the lack of streaming options. How do you say Game of Thrones en espanol?? So…your hosts take the extra time this week to dive deeper into the goss from the last week on planet earth. Brandi joins post-wedding and post-hangover, having crushed an unprepared Maid of Honor speech—proof you never let the truth get in the way of a good story. They dive into Ozempic rumors, horse genetics, whether we need another pope (can we get a millennial one?), and debate the worthiness of a genie wish—$50 trillion vs. a good sandwich. British English is bollocks, Ozzy Osborne is retiring (and apparently still alive), and Wells’ Spanish just might just be improving… adios, amigos!

Favorite things mentioned:

Walton Goggins Freaks Out

Mobland

Game of Thrones (but in Spanish!)

Under the Sea by Wells Adams
