Brianna Chickenfry
There's a Trend where you just. You say to people like, these kids are doing it to their mom, where they'll go on Facebook and find, like, random Facebook friends that they have never met and be like, I'm so hungry, I could eat Sheryl Crow, but not Cheryl Crow. Cheryl Smith. And it's like, her. Her mom's random. Okay, she's coming up.
[02:52]
Josh Richards
This is a terrible. Halfway through the explanation, she just leaned over the top.
[02:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
Boston almost knocked the camera over. Yeah. So I texted Gabby last night, and I was like, hey, I need to. I just need, like, a random name that I would have no idea. Someone that Josh grew up with. And she sent me two names. And. Yeah. So I. I gotcha.

Josh Richards
That looks a little bit too exposed.
[03:25]
Brianna Chickenfry
A little bit.
[03:27]
Josh Richards
You're telling me it looks good on camera?
[03:28]
Brianna Chickenfry

[03:48]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yes.
[03:48]
Josh Richards
I guess I kind of took it all, didn't I?
[03:50]
Brianna Chickenfry
Did. Well, let's get into that.
[03:51]
Josh Richards
Let's go. All right. So what did you get up to this week, Bri?
[03:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
I went home. I went home for Easter. My sister had her. I keep calling it an engagement party. I was posting all over Instagram, like, happy engagement party. She had that six months ago. It was her bridal shower. But it was a blast. I'm excited for her to get married. We're going to Portugal for a wedding. I'm a maid of honor. It's really stressful. Have you ever been, like, in a maid of honor?
[04:17]
Josh Richards
No, I haven't yet. Still waiting. We'll see what happens. But one day, hopefully, maybe I'll make.
[04:23]
Brianna Chickenfry
You my maid of honor. If I ever find love.
[04:26]
Josh Richards
Cool. I'll be a maid of honor.
[04:27]
Brianna Chickenfry
Okay.
[04:28]
Josh Richards
I crush that.
[04:28]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, cool. But it's really stressful, Josh. Like, have you been in a wedding?
[04:35]
Josh Richards
Yes, I've been in. I guess I've never been, like, in the wedding. I've been invited to weddings. I've never been in the wedding. So. Yeah, not there yet.
[04:44]
Brianna Chickenfry
So that's the thing about. I know you're way younger than me about my age group now. Is that all of my friends are starting to get married. So you have to, like, learn as you go. There's a new wedding every single week. And if you're in the wedding party, there's an engagement party, there's a bridal shower, there's a bachelorette party, Then there's, like, the welcome party, then there's the actual wedding. So it's a lot. It's a lot of shit. Like, if you're in a wedding, you better be ready to drop some bands. Like, I've spent. I don't even. Fuck. I think I've spent $15,000.
[05:13]
Josh Richards
Right. But you're. You're not shy to, you know, drop in cash?
[05:16]
Brianna Chickenfry
No, I'm. I'm. I'm making sure I give cash because it's my sis, and I want her to have the best wedding ever. But if you're. If you're tight on the cash, you gotta run away when someone asks you to be there.
[05:25]
Josh Richards
Like, no, for sure. But it seems like you're really in the. The charitable mood this week.
[05:31]
Brianna Chickenfry
I am. Whenever I go home, I'm just like, cash isn't real.
[05:34]
Josh Richards
Let me give it right. You're giving. You're giving it away to little kids doing lemonade.
[05:39]
Brianna Chickenfry
That was fun.
[05:40]
Josh Richards
You're dropping humble brags about how you're dropping bands on your sister's wedding. I don't know if.
[05:45]
Brianna Chickenfry
Well, I'm a maid of honor.
[05:46]
Josh Richards
I don't know if you're doing a whole little. Let's get some pity views here, but I think, okay, let's address the elephant in the room. Do you personally? Me personally? I thought the video was awesome, and I showed it to Gabby, and I was like, wow, look at Brie giving back. That's so amazing. But, you know, a lot of people probably think you're just, you know, trying to buy views and likes.
[06:08]
Brianna Chickenfry
Actually, no one did. It was a really wholesome video, and everyone loved it.
[06:12]
Josh Richards
Probably a lot of.
[06:13]
Brianna Chickenfry
So would you rather me not do good things?
[06:15]
Josh Richards
Well, why do you have to video it?
[06:17]
Brianna Chickenfry
Because it's a beautiful video to watch. Those are my favorite videos to watch on Instagram. What do you just want, like, social media to be ugly, stupid videos of us talking about pop culture the whole fucking time? I'd rather smile and, yeah, I enjoyed it, so fuck you. Do you hate me, Josh?
[06:32]
Josh Richards
I think this is what for losers.
[06:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
I think you hate me. Should we end this podcast?
[06:36]
Josh Richards
Smiling is for people that are.
[06:38]
Brianna Chickenfry
He's not answering.
[06:39]
Josh Richards
There is for people that are oblivious. It's for people that. That are dumb. Dumb people.
[06:43]
Brianna Chickenfry
Smile the world Crazy angry grandpa diva monster is what you are. And you're of mean.
[06:49]
Josh Richards
I was just joking with you, dude.
[06:51]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't know the jokes. I don't like.
[06:53]
Josh Richards
I actually. I actually love the video. I did. I did. I seriously. I watched it actually, like, probably 30 minutes before this podcast started, which was, you know, three minutes before it was supposed to start because you're 27 minutes late, but.
[07:05]
Brianna Chickenfry
Okay. Also, we've recorded at 130 for the past four and a half years, and all of a sudden we record at one, and I'm just supposed to magically.
[07:12]
Josh Richards
Know, yeah, there's a calendar app in your.
[07:15]
Brianna Chickenfry
But, like, why wouldn't someone be like, hey, we changed it after the past four and a half years to one reminder.
[07:20]
Josh Richards
I. I don't know. It seems like you need to get your team in check. But I did like the video, Bri. I did. I thought it was a great video. I thought it was really cute. And I'm sure you made those kids day. Like, I remember doing lemonade stands when I was younger because I was always trying to, like, hustle to make a buck, and when someone would, like, come by and, you know, they gave you, like, a little bit more than what? And you did a lot more, which was really cool. Really cool. But. But sometimes people will come by, you know, and it's like you're charging a dollar for lemonade, and they give you, like, a $5 bill, and they're like, keep the change. And you were just like, that's what it's all about. $5. Like, that's so cool. It's really. It really is. So hats off to you, dude.
[07:59]
Brianna Chickenfry
Thanks. Wasn't supposed to be a big thing. I didn't think you were going to bring it up.
[08:02]
Josh Richards
It is cool. It is cool. What? We got to address the good things you do, too. We can't always just talk about your drinking.
[08:09]
Brianna Chickenfry
What did you do for Easter? Nothing. Sleep?
[08:11]
Josh Richards
No, neither, actually. I had my dad come down. We did, like, a golf tournament this weekend, or just, I guess played a lot of golf. I should say played like four days of golf. Went and played some nice courses. Gabby got us a gift for Christmas for me and my dad, where we went and played, like, a really expensive course. So that was fun. But, yeah, that was kind of the Easter weekend. It was pretty chill. Cook some dinners. Watched Last of Us. Oh, please tell me you're watching Last of Us.
[08:43]
Brianna Chickenfry
I'm not. I'm. Because I'm re Watching Game of Thrones. And everyone's talking about Last of Us. I feel like I need to start watching it.
[08:49]
Josh Richards
Oh, my God. The second. So you haven't played the video game or anything either?
[08:53]
Brianna Chickenfry
No, Josh. You think I played the video game?
[08:55]
Josh Richards
Oh. I mean, it is, like, one of the best video games of all time. What do you play it on, PlayStation?
[09:02]
Brianna Chickenfry
We.
[09:03]
Josh Richards
Yeah. Yeah. It's such a good campaign. Like, video game. It's unreal. But the. The show is just continuing to crush in a way of, like, making sure they, you know, mix the right amount of staying true to the game, even showing some. Like, the way they shoot it is the exact same way when you go through the campaign, but then also, like, sprinkling things to keep you excited.
[09:24]
Brianna Chickenfry
What's camp? What is campaign? Video game mean?
[09:26]
Josh Richards
That's like, when you're going through a storyline.
[09:28]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, okay.
[09:29]
Josh Richards
So, right. So there's like. If you're playing a video game like Fortnite, there's not a campaign to that. You're going into a battle royale and going up against, you know, 99 other people. But.
[09:39]
Brianna Chickenfry
So Minecraft. No, campaign.
[09:41]
Josh Richards
Minecraft is. Is not a campaign. It's. You're in a world you're building. There's not a campaign. Right. Campaign. There's, like a campaign mode. In, like, Call of Duty, there's a campaign, and whenever you have a storyline, you know, sometimes you won't even be playing, and it'll show you, like, a video. Like, it'll be like a video of people talking or whatever. That's like a campaign.
[09:59]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, like gta.
[10:02]
Josh Richards
Yeah. There's campaign in gta. I. I wasn't a GTA guy, but I'm.
[10:06]
Brianna Chickenfry
I like gta.
[10:08]
Josh Richards
But anyways, I won't say anymore. You're. It's going to be hard for you not to get it spoiled for you, especially after this last episode came out. So try to just not look at any video. Skip everything you see. Okay, but just.
[10:22]
Brianna Chickenfry
Just go, like, phone the whole time.
[10:24]
Josh Richards
Let me just say Abby. All right, Real quick. Abby and everything she's about. I don't give a. About your dad. All right? I don't give a. Not one flying. All right.
[10:35]
Brianna Chickenfry
Should I be. Should I say that, too you? Gabby.
[10:38]
Josh Richards
No, Abby.
[10:40]
Brianna Chickenfry
I'm not saying Gabby. Your girlfriend. I thought the girl's name was Gabby.
[10:43]
Josh Richards
No, it's Abby. It's Abby.
[10:44]
Brianna Chickenfry
All right.
[10:45]
Josh Richards
We don't get it confused. I hate that Abby girl. Pedro.
[10:50]
Brianna Chickenfry
Hottie Pascal's in there, right?
[10:51]
Josh Richards
Pedro Hardy Pascal is in there.
[10:54]
Brianna Chickenfry
He's also in Game of Thrones right now, when I'm watching.
[10:59]
Josh Richards
One of the big things of Last of Us that's going on right now is the actress that played Abby is getting a lot of hate because of what went down in the show. But to me, that just means she did an incredible job playing her role. If I hate her character this much. Right?
[11:17]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. I mean, she's a great.
[11:18]
Josh Richards
Can't get mad at the actress. She's unreal. And. And. And, you know, Pedro posted, like, a picture of her so people wouldn't. But I. I gotta stop talking. I'm gonna stop.
[11:27]
Brianna Chickenfry
People are hating the actual person.
[11:29]
Josh Richards
Yeah, yeah, yeah. There was, like, some hate that was going towards her. I think it. It started to flip pretty quickly as people were like, wait a sec. That doesn't make sense. Why are people hating her? You gotta hate the character. That's the whole point of this. So it'll be a quick thing, and I'm sure it'll pass.
[11:44]
Brianna Chickenfry
You see that? Well, I keep bringing everything back to Game of Thrones, but you see that in Game of Thrones where, like, King Joffrey, he never, like, he couldn't get any other roles or play anything. He was the most hated man in America, but it's just his character, and then no one could love him in any other character because they hated him so much in the show. That sucks. Imagine being casted as the villain, and you're just a really good actor, and then you can't get a lovable role.
[12:06]
Josh Richards
Ever, because you just did such a good job, like, encapsulating being the worst human being ever.
[12:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
Exactly. That sucks. But, like, also, that means you're really good.
[12:16]
Josh Richards
Yeah. Yeah. If you're playing a role and I actually hate you, like, I. Oh, I mean, you've done the right thing. You're making me feel. That's the whole point of art.
[12:24]
Brianna Chickenfry
Well, now I kind of want to know everything. Should I. I'm never gonna watch it. Here's the thing about me. I never finish shows.
[12:30]
Josh Richards
I. You will finish this show. There's only going to be two seasons. It's not a long, long show. Like, they're hourong episodes, but I think there's maybe eight episodes a season. Like, you will watch one of these episodes and be like, I gotta watch the next. It's one of those. Like, you. You'll probably be able to binge it in a day.
[12:48]
Brianna Chickenfry
Okay, all right, I'll report back. Maybe I'll watch it all up until next week, and then I'll be caught up, and then we can Talk about it on the pod.
[12:53]
Josh Richards
And that'll be perfect because the third episode comes out next week just before the podcast.
[12:56]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, so I only have one season to watch?
[12:58]
Josh Richards
You got one season to watch, and then there's two episodes out of the second season. Okay, good.
[13:03]
Brianna Chickenfry
All right, Chat. Should I watch it? Is everyone watching it? I feel like I'm missing out on something big. It's like the. The White Lotus.
[13:09]
Josh Richards
Did you just ask Chat?

[14:26]
Brianna Chickenfry
So, want to do headlines?
[14:28]
Josh Richards
Yeah, let's get into the headlines.
[14:30]
Brianna Chickenfry
All right, what do we got? I feel like we kind of have a lot this week. Oh, I want. I actually want to know your take on this, because I feel like it was polarizing, which I didn't think it would be. I was posting on my Instagram story. I love Benson Boone. I think he's fucking a rock star. He gets on stage, he performs. Hell of a dude. I get it. The flips may be annoying, but I feel like people are only seeing one, like, clip of the flip. And they're like, all he does is flip. He flips, he sings, he does tricks, he dances. He's really good. And I posted on my story, like, do you guys think that Benson Boone is the next Harry Styles and everyone's like, no, he's better, or don't even compare them. He's the next Frederick Freddie Mercury. There was. It was 50, 50. People were really mad at me or agreed with me. What do you think?
[15:16]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I don't, I don't understand where the hate comes from. I think when anyone has success as quickly as Benson did, people then start to question the success or like, try to find a reason to make it not as valid or something like that. And I really, I don't know why that is, but I love Benson. I think he's an incredible talent. I think he's trying to bring something fun to the stage, which is cool, because artists, a lot of, like, artists today or. I, I'm not saying all, but there's a lot of artists today that go up and they don't really give a huge performance. They're lip syncing, like a track. They're not even singing there. You know, they're. They're pretty much. You're listening to them film a. Musically, essentially, they're lip syncing the song that they've already recorded in the studio. So it's to me, really cool that Benson is going out. He's singing. You don't know if he's gonna hit the high note. Perfect. And he does. He's always hitting that high note, always hitting flips. He's moving around like, I enjoy that. I think that's fun. I think that's fun. When you're there watching the concert at.
[16:23]
Brianna Chickenfry
Coachella, he crushed Crush and he also has bangers. After bangers after bangers. I think people just think he has that one song where he flips, but he has a whole list of bangers. I don't know why I'm. I feel so passionate about Benson Boone. I just, I don't like to see him get hate because he's so talented and he's a baby. He's younger than you.

Yeah. And he's super nice. Like, I met him in Cannes last year. Yeah. Had a conversation with him. Just like a really nice guy. So, yeah, if you're a nice guy to me, I'm always going to root for you. So go Benson.
[16:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
But I guess I was actually a little upset because this weekend we were after my sister's bachelorette party or whatever, we live streamed Coachella. What is it fudgeing called? Engagement party. Bridal shower. Yep. After her bridal shower, we live streamed Coachella. And Benson Boone said that he couldn't hear crowd one the first weekend and I was pretty bummed out. But then I looked back at my videos and we were like, front row, Benson. Boom. And it's actually just me, Peyton and Hannah screaming and no one. Everyone's looking at us like, you bitches are crazy. So maybe he was right.
[17:30]
Josh Richards
So week two, he got a bigger, bigger audience is what he's saying.
[17:33]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. And I think that's because week one, it's so like famous people, influencers. And like, I would look around and be like, oh, no one's really having fun besides my crazy crew. And like your crew was having fun. But yeah, I was mad when he said that. And then I took a step out of it was like, yeah, you're probably right. No one was really dancing.
[17:53]
Josh Richards
That's too bad. I wonder if the artists enjoy week two generally more than week one because of the fact of like the influencers being out or it be being more of like a social driven weekend.
[18:04]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[18:04]
Josh Richards
Is there less people there for the music, you know?
[18:07]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, I, I, I would assume so. I, I feel like when you're doing such a big show, it's all based on the crowd and if the crowd's.
[18:16]
Josh Richards
Lame, it's hard to give energy when no one's giving energy back.
[18:19]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, you gotta give what you get. Get what you give.
[18:22]
Josh Richards
Put that on a T shirt.
[18:24]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yep. Right now. But I guess he's, he's was frustrated at Coachella weekend one crowd and he dresses it by saying people that they hate him. So in weekend one of Coachella, he says that he brought out Brian May, which was crazy, the guitars for Queen while he sang Bohemian Rap City. And people online were angry about the lack of reaction to Br May and appreciation for the whole set in general. And then Benson made a tick tock saying me trying to get the crowds at Coachella to understand what an absolute legend Brian May is in the cultural impact he has a music around the world. I mean, yeah, no one really knew that it was Brian May when he came out.
[18:57]
Josh Richards
Yeah, it's too bad. That's too bad. I mean, can you hear my dog whining, by the way? Are you guys picking this up? She's just being a sook right now and she's trying to get love, but she's, she's just being a baby.
[19:11]
Brianna Chickenfry
Put her on your lap.
[19:13]
Josh Richards
Yeah, but she doesn't, she does this thing where it's like, I gotta go to her. She'll whine and I'll be like, come here. And then she just doesn't Move. She doesn't.
[19:20]
Brianna Chickenfry
She's the queen of your house.
[19:22]
Josh Richards
She is. She's more alpha than I am somehow.
[19:25]
Brianna Chickenfry
It's like every dog is scared of Buddy, and everyone knows that. What Buddy says, Buddy goes.
[19:31]
Josh Richards
Yep. No, she is very much in charge here. Anyway. Sorry.
[19:35]
Brianna Chickenfry
That's okay.
[19:36]
Josh Richards
Brought us off topic.
[19:37]
Brianna Chickenfry
Benson Boone is.
[19:38]
Josh Richards
Just go. Benson Boone. That's the end of it.
[19:39]
Brianna Chickenfry
I love him, but. But the second weekend, he just brought out a cardboard cutout. Second weekend, I felt so bad. No one got brought out.
[19:47]
Josh Richards
Yeah, there were there no surprise acts for anybody or just for Benson, though.
[19:51]
Brianna Chickenfry
On week two, not for Benson. Charlie brought out Lord Billie Eilish and Troy Sivan. Weekend one didn't bring out anyone. Oh, she brought out Addison Rae weekend to. Okay. And then. Yeah, that's. That was it.
[20:03]
Josh Richards
Because, like, Zed brought out John Mayer in week one. Like, there were some cool people popping out. You. You don't like John Mayer?
[20:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
No.
[20:13]
Josh Richards
What happened with John Mayer?
[20:14]
Brianna Chickenfry
I just love. Have you ever heard the song Dear John?
[20:18]
Josh Richards
Oh, this is a Taylor Swift thing.
[20:21]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yes.
[20:22]
Josh Richards
I'm sorry, I'm not caught up on all of the Taylor Swift.
[20:26]
Brianna Chickenfry
I wasn't either. And now I know everything back.
[20:29]
Josh Richards
Did you want to hear. You want to hear a crazy story?
[20:33]
Brianna Chickenfry
I do.
[20:33]
Josh Richards
Back in the Sway days, John Mayer asked to live with us for a month to experience what a content house was like. And we said no.
[20:41]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, yeah. Thank God. How old was the motherfucker?
[20:46]
Josh Richards
I don't know. But, I mean, I guess four years younger than he is now. And we were all our age then, so I was like, 19. 18.
[20:55]
Brianna Chickenfry
Are you. I mean, that is crazy. That's like an episode of To Catch a predator. He's 47 now.
[21:02]
Josh Richards
Well, I. I don't know how Predator it is to live with a bunch of dudes, but I guess we threw a lot of parties. But I don't. I don't know if that's the lane he was going for, Bri.
[21:14]
Brianna Chickenfry
Well, I don't care. That's weird. Imagine if. So he would have been 44, asking to live with. What were you guys, 17?
[21:22]
Josh Richards
Well, I was 18. I was 18, and I was the youngest until Quentin joined about, like, two months later. So he was 16 or 17. So, yeah, we. I mean, we were on the younger side. Griff was the only one that was 21 when Sway started. And then Bryce turned 21, like, not much long later.
[21:42]
Brianna Chickenfry
I mean, chat. Am I crazy? Like, I know you don't have a live chat. I know, but it's funny. I Love saying chat, but am I crazy for thinking or for saying that's a little weird that a 45 year old wanted to live with 16, 17, 18 year olds for a month just to test the waters? You are a huge famous man. Why do you want to go live in a content house?
[22:04]
Josh Richards
I. I wish. I wish we would have said yes because I think it would have just been a crazy crossover episode.
[22:09]
Brianna Chickenfry
I mean, it would have been incredible. The content would have been great, but it's just weird on his part. Not your.
[22:13]
Josh Richards
And then, who knows, maybe I would have gotten like a John Mayer AP or something like that. He would have, like, given me a watch.
[22:19]
Brianna Chickenfry
He's a sick watch guy.
[22:20]
Josh Richards
Yeah, he's got sick watches.
[22:23]
Brianna Chickenfry
Wow. Yeah. I don't know, you guys let me know if I'm crazy for thinking that's insane because.
[22:27]
Josh Richards
Yeah, chat. What do you guys think?
[22:29]
Brianna Chickenfry
Seriously, chat. We got to get the chat more involved. Like, what the fuck? That can't be crazy for me to think that's pedophilic. Is that even a word?
[22:37]
Josh Richards
I get what you mean.
[22:38]
Brianna Chickenfry
So new word just dropped on BFFs.
[22:41]
Josh Richards
There we go. Pedophilic.
[22:43]
Brianna Chickenfry
Pedophilic. Either way. Not if it's pedophilic. It's just fucking weird to me. Oh, there was more. There was more. Yeah. You would have been down because it would have been cool. John Mayer would have been lived with you. But that's like the thing.
[22:54]
Josh Richards
I don't even think it actually got run by me. Like, I think the team said no, and it didn't even get run by me. And I found out much later, which is too bad.
[23:02]
Brianna Chickenfry
Well, that's good. They were protecting. Chris Hansen was probably on your team at the time.
[23:06]
Josh Richards
Yeah. I don't know how much protecting was going on with the team I had at the time. More like maybe they didn't want other hands on me. They wanted their hands to. To me all for themselves.
[23:17]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. Sounds like a bigger conversation.
[23:21]
Josh Richards
Yeah.
[23:21]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[23:22]
Josh Richards
And we don't need that.
[23:22]
Brianna Chickenfry
We can offline that.
[23:24]
Josh Richards
I'm not gonna offline with you about it. It's not that serious.
[23:29]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, okay. We're all good. Don't need to chat about it offline.
[23:31]
Josh Richards
Nah.
[23:32]
Brianna Chickenfry
Okay, good. Just checking. Just making sure. Because I'm a good friend. But you hate me.
[23:37]
Josh Richards
I don't hate you. I don't know what this narrative is.
[23:39]
Brianna Chickenfry
You hate me. Everyone thinks you hate me. Can you just say I don't hate Brie, everyone.
[23:43]
Josh Richards
It's just like we're siblings, you know?
[23:45]
Brianna Chickenfry
I know they don't understand it.
[23:48]
Josh Richards
Yeah, it's. It's the same exact way. Like, you're. You're going to go back and forth with a sibling? I don't know.
[23:55]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, that's what I thought. Guys, chat. You're coming to New York. And you know what I think we should do for a live stream?
[24:02]
Josh Richards
What should we do for a live stream?
[24:03]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't know if we're allowed to, but I think it would be funny. So I started because of you when we went to D.C. and I took a couple. Took a couple hits of your dad pen. I've been slowly integrating back into smoking. Smoking the ganja. And I've been cracking up lately, and I think it'll be really funny if we smoked and, like, you. I smoke as much as, like, you would normally. And then we, like, go, why do.
[24:30]
Josh Richards
You make it seem like I'm some crazy pothead or something?
[24:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
No, I'm not saying you're a crazy pothead, but you smoke, so your tolerance is higher. And if I tried to smoke the same amount of as you do, and you're, like, normal, and then it's you trying to guide me, and I'm, like, just really paranoid and scared and, like, trying to be cool. I think it would be a funny video if we, like, went out in public and just tried to be like.
[24:51]
Josh Richards
I was going to say we got to be doing something. Like, we got to be going to, like, an aquarium or something like that.
[24:56]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. Or like, even if we go, do we go do what Hamza and Martin do and we just go to a buffet and do a fucking mukbang?
[25:03]
Josh Richards
Yeah. Yeah. Well, yeah, I like that.
[25:06]
Brianna Chickenfry
I think that would be funny. Or I just kind of want to. I just kind of want to smoke weed with you because it's kind of fun.
[25:11]
Josh Richards
I'm a fun guy to be around.
[25:13]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, sure. When you. When you're high on the ginger.
[25:16]
Josh Richards
When I'm off that. When I'm off that grass.
[25:18]
Brianna Chickenfry
When you're off that grass. I feel like I've been saying things lately that make me feel like a millennial or a grandma.
[25:25]
Josh Richards
And what are some of those things?
[25:27]
Brianna Chickenfry
Smoking pot. That. That's the one. And I'm, like, saying it not ironically. I'm being serious. When I'm like, oh, yeah, let's go get some potato.
[25:39]
Josh Richards
Yeah, it's not cool. I don't know. I mean, what do you. What. What. What other slang term do you want to call it?
[25:45]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, exactly. Right. So it is cool.
[25:47]
Josh Richards
I think it's just as Cool as calling it anything else.
[25:50]
Brianna Chickenfry
Okay, cool.
[25:51]
Josh Richards
There's not that many, you know, weed, flour. Ganja's funny. I like ganja just because that's, like, what I grew up in my neighborhood. That's what people called it.
[26:01]
Brianna Chickenfry
Really?
[26:02]
Josh Richards
Yeah.
[26:03]
Brianna Chickenfry
They would say, let's go get some ganja.
[26:05]
Josh Richards
Yeah. I'd be like, yeah, no way.
[26:08]
Brianna Chickenfry
You're making shit up.
[26:09]
Josh Richards
No, that's what it is. That's what it was.
[26:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
They would say, you were in seventh grade. And they said, let's go get some ganja.
[26:15]
Josh Richards
Well, okay, again, I don't know what. What this is, this narrative we're trying to spin. Like, I.
[26:20]
Brianna Chickenfry
Well, you try to spin on some bracket alcoholic, but I'm just telling the truth, that you're smoking ganja with the neighborhood kids in seventh grade.
[26:28]
Josh Richards
I. Skinny, don't try to make you sound like a crackhead alcoholic. I just try to make you sound like an alcoholic, first of all. Secondly, I'm not smoking with seventh graders. I wasn't smoking in seventh grade. I was in high school. I was in high school.
[26:43]
Brianna Chickenfry
Same.
[26:46]
Josh Richards
All right, let's get back to the headlines.
[26:48]
Brianna Chickenfry
There was drama with Charlie, xcx, and Green Day. Did you see this little drama?
[26:52]
Josh Richards
I didn't see this drama.
[26:53]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, my gosh. Okay, so the. After the first day that Charlie performed on weekend one, she put a sash on. Her friends gave her a sash and said, miss should have been a headliner. And then the person from Green Day put on a sash that they made and said, actual headliner. And then Billy Joe Armstrong put on a brat hat for their second set. So I think that he was like, we're squashing the beef. But I think it was a funny back and forth.
[27:19]
Josh Richards
Okay. It seems like it's not that serious is what I'm picking up from this.
[27:22]
Brianna Chickenfry
No, but the Internet went crazy when Charlie had on that, like, the SAsh that said Ms. Should have been a headliner. Which is crazy to me because she is, like. She's always just been so. She's, like, kind of cocky, confident. That's, like, her whole thing. She's like a brat. That's her whole thing. Of course she's gonna wear that sash. Her friends made it. It was funny. I don't think she was dissing anyone else. She was just like, I deserve to be a headliner too. And everyone was like, she's a. Yeah.
[27:48]
Josh Richards
No, I mean, I love Green Day. So I was gonna say at the start, probably, no matter what, I'm gonna be on Green Day side with this one. But to Me. It just seems like they're, like, poking fun back at each other.
[27:59]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[27:59]
Josh Richards
Like, this doesn't seem like something. It seems like one of those things that the Internet takes and runs with.
[28:03]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. Yeah. I think they're buddies. Did you see Addison Ray's performance?
[28:08]
Josh Richards
No.
[28:10]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, can we. Can we maybe pull up a clip for him? It's so bad. That's why it's good. That's how I feel about it. I'm like, you know what? It. She's having fun. Wish if I could get up there and do that would sound like that and it would be a blast.
[28:27]
Josh Richards
So I'm confused. Was Charlie intentionally trying to. With Aden and not put any auto tune on her mic and then put all the auto tune on her own? Yeah.
[28:38]
Brianna Chickenfry
I think we should have tossed Addie some autotune.
[28:41]
Josh Richards
Well, just give her a little bit.
[28:42]
Brianna Chickenfry
Just maybe, you know, a little bit a sprinkle.
[28:45]
Josh Richards
She's got the. She like Charlie XCX got the Travis Scott mic.
[28:49]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[28:49]
Josh Richards
Going.
[28:50]
Brianna Chickenfry
That's her thing, though.
[28:51]
Josh Richards
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I'm not taken away from that. It's. It sounds great, you know, but why wouldn't you just lend a little. Why wouldn't you just lend a little of that auto tune over to. To Addison? Yeah, it would.
[29:06]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. Then it would have been like, that's iconic. Because she would have sounded really hard.
[29:11]
Josh Richards
Thing to go and hit to give Addison some credit there. She's screaming at the top of her lungs. Right.
[29:16]
Brianna Chickenfry
Like, I thought the scream sounded good. The singing. We could have tossed her.
[29:21]
Josh Richards
Maybe give her some tune. Give her some tune. It also sounded like her mic was, like, way louder too.
[29:27]
Brianna Chickenfry
I know.
[29:28]
Josh Richards
Like, it was like, let's, like, make sure everyone hears this perfectly.
[29:32]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. She looked iconic. She is iconic.
[29:35]
Josh Richards
So, yeah, she was out there doing her thing. I saw a different performance than this.
[29:39]
Brianna Chickenfry
What did you see?
[29:41]
Josh Richards
I saw. Maybe it wasn't at Coachella then. I don't know. I saw a different. Gabby showed me a different performance.
[29:46]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, I. I haven't seen that. All I saw was that one when she was at Coachella in her pink polka dots.
[29:51]
Josh Richards
All right, maybe it was a different part and I'm just mixing it all.
[29:54]
Brianna Chickenfry
Up, but she came up for that.
[29:55]
Josh Richards
I mean, that's. That's sick, dude. To get to perform at Coachella with.
[29:59]
Brianna Chickenfry
Charlie xcx, like, what? That is so cool. I don't even care what you sound like. That is so cool. And you're the coolest, baddest bitch alive.
[30:07]
Josh Richards
Gabby loves her. That's what Gabby was saying when she was showing me the video, she was like, I love Addison Rae.
[30:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
Right?
[30:12]
Josh Richards
She's iconic.
[30:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
She's so iconic. Like, she doesn't even care that she doesn't sound good because she, you know, she could have asked for Auto tune and she was like, you know what now?
[30:19]
Josh Richards
Yeah. Yeah. I wonder if that's what happened or if, like, they forgot to and she just had to roll with it.
[30:23]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't know. I feel like even everything she does is so calculated for people to talk about. Like, she's the best PR team ever. I feel like in a way that could have even been something to provoke a conversation about Auto Tune or like, oh, she's not a bad. Who cares? She's so cool.
[30:38]
Josh Richards
Damn, we fell for the trap, didn't we?
[30:40]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, we did. We always do.
[30:41]
Josh Richards
We always do.
[30:42]
Brianna Chickenfry
We're always in. I'm in the trap right now.
[30:45]
Josh Richards
Yeah, in the trap.
[30:46]
Brianna Chickenfry
In the trap. Today, actually, Addison said that she thinks that she surpassed being Addison Ray, and now she's just Addison. So she dropped the ray. Oh, she dropped the ray.
[30:55]
Josh Richards
Oh, no more Ray Addison.
[30:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
How do we feel about that? I'll. I'll do whatever she wants.
[31:01]
Josh Richards
Cool. I mean, you can.
[31:05]
Brianna Chickenfry
I feel like that's so hard to do, though, to switch up names after everyone knows you for, like, Addison Ray Kind of sounds like a pop star name, though.
[31:13]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I agree. I think it already is a name that works. I mean, I guess if you want to, you know, own. Own your name, you want to be the, you know, version of whatever your first name is, that's cool, too.
[31:25]
Brianna Chickenfry
I'm rebranding. Just call me Rose. No, actually, just call me Pags.
[31:31]
Josh Richards
Pegged. Be called pegged.
[31:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
Nope. Been there, done that. Pags. I haven't been pegged. I used to have merch that said get pegged. But anyways, call me Pags. Rebranding Pop star.
[31:44]
Josh Richards
I'll call you. I'm not going to call you that.
[31:46]
Brianna Chickenfry
Why? Pags. La Paglia. Pags. Not.
[31:50]
Josh Richards
You gotta earn it. You gotta earn.
[31:52]
Brianna Chickenfry
How do I earn it?
[31:54]
Josh Richards
I don't know, Chat, but I'm just telling you. Yeah, I haven't earned it yet. Okay, well, I think Bree's good, though. Or chicken fry. You're the only. Chicken fry. That's pretty cool.
[32:03]
Brianna Chickenfry
I hate that. I'll kill myself on the camera right now. Right now.
[32:07]
Josh Richards
I'll do it.
[32:08]
Brianna Chickenfry
Don't tell me. I'll kill myself right now on the camera.
[32:11]
Josh Richards
No balls.
[32:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
Chat's like, do it. Just, like, do it right now. You Won't chicken fry. I will. I got a big set of cojones. But anyways, call me Pags P. A G S. All right.
[32:27]
Josh Richards
What do you want to be called? Yeah, no, I'm good with my birth given name.
[32:31]
Brianna Chickenfry
Cool.
[32:31]
Josh Richards
Josh Richards is cool with me.
[32:32]
Brianna Chickenfry
Cool. Like, does anyone call you Joshua?
[32:36]
Josh Richards
Yeah, my mother.
[32:37]
Brianna Chickenfry
When you're in trouble after smoking all.
[32:40]
Josh Richards
The time, she calls me Joshua.
[32:42]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, she never shortened it.
[32:44]
Josh Richards
No, Gabby calls me Joshua every once in a while.
[32:46]
Brianna Chickenfry
But she's angry with you.
[32:49]
Josh Richards
Whenever there's a higher emotion, it doesn't necessarily need to be the emotion of anger, but I think, like, you know, if she's like, really happy or I did something that she's really laughing at, or I did something that is annoying or whatever, like, whenever there's like a little extra there, she'll be like, nope, that wasn't. That wasn't. Right accent.
[33:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
It's never the right accent with you. You're bad at accents.
[33:14]
Josh Richards
No, I'm good at accents. I just. I'm not good at doing the right one.
[33:18]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, honestly. Yeah, that's true.
[33:22]
Josh Richards
Whatever. You guys know what Gabby sounds like? Like a. Like an angel. So just imagine an angel saying Joshua.
[33:27]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yes, exactly. There's so much Coachella ship, but Tyler, this was funny. Tyler was wearing pretty much like an exact replica of Britney Spears iconic outfit. And people were saying that they loved the Britney inspo and she responded and said, I love her, but I just thought the outfit was fly. There's no inspo. It's like literally the same exact outfit.
[33:50]
Josh Richards
Yeah. Also, like, if people are like already loving you for doing it, why not just roll with it?
[33:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
You just roll with it.
[33:58]
Josh Richards
Just roll with it. You don't have to like, come out and be like, no, I picked this out myself and has nothing to do with her. Just like, just be like, oh, thanks. Yeah, yeah. He's inspired by her. Feed into it.
[34:07]
Brianna Chickenfry
Feed into it. And like, there is a world where her stylist just put her in it and she loved it. And she had no idea it was tied to Brittany. Sure, that's probably what happened. But when you see that it was tied to Britney, maybe she's like, oh, yeah, that's dope. Like, clearly it was inspo.
[34:21]
Josh Richards
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Just do like a little. Oh, yeah. I love her.
[34:25]
Brianna Chickenfry
I love her. I love Britney. Team Britney. Britney's. Is she free?
[34:32]
Josh Richards
Like, yeah.
[34:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
Have you been checking her Instagrams?
[34:37]
Josh Richards
No, I don't really keep. Keep up with her.

Josh Richards
Katy Perry.
[36:04]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, Katy Perry.
[36:06]
Josh Richards
Katy Perry. I mean, it's pretty funny if I, I'm. I'm not going to lie. I thought the whole thing was pretty hilarious.
[36:15]
Brianna Chickenfry
Like a sketch for Read the Room.
[36:17]
Josh Richards
It really was. I mean, from beginning to end. Because it was all like, Jeff Bezos. Just. It was like Jeff Bezos, gay, like, funded his wife's project or something like that. That's what this was.
[36:29]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yes.
[36:29]
Josh Richards
If I'm not misspoken here, I hope. But I think it was like he was like, here's some money. Go, go, go do something. And like, go do something fun. And then she's like, all right, let's do this. Really cool. Like only females, first female group to go to space. And it's like, okay, that's awesome. And then they bring Katy Perry in and it just, I think if they didn't put Katy Perry in there. There wouldn't be bad press from this.
[36:58]
Brianna Chickenfry
Because she was like, bro, she. I have never been so confused. Like, she was talking, like how I would talk if I smoked the amount of weed that you smoke and I'm pretending to be an astronaut and trying to finish my essay with filler words. She just kept being like, this is for love, and all of this creates love in the space. And we're not creating space because I am one with the center of love that is beautiful with love and everything. And she was moving her hands like this, and she was talking like Nara Smith. It made me uneasy.
[37:33]
Josh Richards
It.
[37:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
It.
[37:34]
Josh Richards
It made me think that maybe she was abducted by an alien and they skinned her and wore her skin and came down to earth. That's what it made me think. Because I was like, no human talks like this. There's not one human that talks like this.
[37:45]
Brianna Chickenfry
No, she was totally skinned by an alien. This.
[37:48]
Josh Richards
The.
[37:48]
Brianna Chickenfry
The quote that everyone was freaking out about. Quote she says, I feel super connected to love. The flight was all for the benefit of Earth. I wanted to model courage and worthiness and fearlessness.
[38:01]
Josh Richards
Is she British?
[38:02]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't know. But she was really talking like this.
[38:05]
Josh Richards
Well, yeah, no, I. I really think the Katy Perry of it all was what made everyone kind of like, hate on it. Because they were like, oh, why is our money. Why is money going to this? Why is money going to this? Blah, blah, blah, you know? So I don't know. I thought it was just. It felt like I was watching like an episode of south park or something.
[38:24]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, it was just funny. I'm honestly.
[38:25]
Josh Richards
Like an SNL bit. Like, it felt like an SNL bit is what it felt like.
[38:29]
Brianna Chickenfry
100. And the hate is like, whatever. Wendy's. Wendy's tweeted at them. Can you send her back or, like, keep her up there and then KE the next, like, day posted with a Wendy's cup.
[38:43]
Josh Richards
Oh, that's funny.
[38:44]
Brianna Chickenfry
The tea, the drama. Yeah, yeah, that was funny. Yeah. Wendy said, can we send her back? I'd be so pissed. Wendy's is my favorite.
[38:54]
Josh Richards
I love Wendy's, man. I probably eat a son of a baconator three times a week.
[38:59]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, the chicken nuggets. Okay, then top chicken nuggets.
[39:02]
Josh Richards
I get that with it.
[39:05]
Brianna Chickenfry
Top five fast foods in order. Number one.
[39:08]
Josh Richards
Am I going the specific thing I'm getting from that place?
[39:11]
Brianna Chickenfry
No, just like you. Top five.
[39:14]
Josh Richards
Okay. Number one, A W onion rings. If you haven't had a W onion rings. Oh, my God. I'm doing Specific food. I don't care what you say. So onion rings. Number one, from a W with a glass of their root beer. Because they give it to you in a chilled mug. It is to die for. Number two. No, no, Bailey's. It's good on its own. Number two, we're going Canadian Wendy's chicken fingers at lunchtime. Near Notre Dame. Middle school. Elementary school. What a spot. What a spot. You go, you get a couple people in front of you that you know you're gonna order chicken fingers too. And you go, hey, you order in front of me, don't worry about it. And then you get the fresh ones. There's oil still sizzling off. You can't get the chicken fingers in the US From Wendy's.
[39:59]
Brianna Chickenfry
No, you can.
[40:00]
Josh Richards
Telling you the best. Like, I, I, I don't know if I've had chicken fingers like that in my life. All right, number three, we're going Son of a baconator from Wendy's with the pink lemonade or strawberry lemonade. Unreal. Number four, we're gonna go with caniac combo from Canes. Sub out, coleslaw, extra Texas toast. Yep, I will that up every single day. Number five, foreign, we're going McDonald's.

[40:45]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, Peyton's going Shamrock.

Josh Richards
Shamrock shake with it. You gotta do it when it's near, you know, Irish Day and you get a little shamrock shake with it. All right. St. Patrick's Day.
[40:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
Wow, that was specific. I don't know. I don't know if I have, I definitely have specifics.
[41:02]
Josh Richards
I'm passionate about this subject.
[41:04]
Brianna Chickenfry
Okay, number one, I think I'm gonna have to go Taco Bell. A chicken quesadilla in a cheesy gordita crunch. Every time, it doesn't fail me. It's always good. It's always incredible.
[41:15]
Josh Richards
When you're drunk, it's because you're always drunk.
[41:17]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yep, exactly. That.
[41:19]
Josh Richards
Taco Bell is only good when you're drunk.
[41:21]
Brianna Chickenfry
That's not true.
[41:23]
Josh Richards
That's my experience.
[41:24]
Brianna Chickenfry
That's. Fuck. You might be right. All right, all right, number one. Actually, you're right. You're right, number one, because I could get this when I'm sober. I could get this one. I could just always get this. Wendy's ten piece chicken nugget with ranch fries in a lemonade.
[41:39]
Josh Richards
You do the Ghost Pepper Ranch or just regular?
[41:40]
Brianna Chickenfry
Just regular Ranch. Their ranch is so good.
[41:42]
Josh Richards
Ghost Pepper Ranch is crazy from there. Give it a try.
[41:45]
Brianna Chickenfry
I'll try it next time. That's got to be my number one. Number two. Yeah, because I gotta think in sober terms. Cane's three chicken finger combo. No coleslaw, extra sauce, extra toast. Make the little cane sandwich.
[41:58]
Josh Richards

[42:21]
Brianna Chickenfry
I love chicken Chat.
[42:23]
Josh Richards
Which one was better? Which one was better? Chat. Vote my list. Breeze list. Who did it better.
[42:28]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, we're getting the chat involved today. Let's go.
[42:31]
Josh Richards
Come on now. Come on, now.
[42:32]
Brianna Chickenfry
Come on. What the hell? I haven't seen Bryce hall and Taylor Holder's name on the sheet in forever.
[42:38]
Josh Richards
What the helly? What the hell, LeBron James?
[42:40]
Brianna Chickenfry
What the helly, Barry? Wait, what the helly though? Do you know about this shit? Taylor responds to a live of Bryce saying that the reason him and Taylor Holder never fought was because Taylor wouldn't sign a contract. Taylor says he will fly out to wherever Bryce trains and fight him without any cameras or nothing. And then Bryce responds all that. Yep. Just to say, you pull up on me, you're pushing 30. And then calls him a human mosquito and says to fly out. Taylor went to Vegas where Bryce lives to fight. And they both posted these photos from after the fight. Bryce captioned the photo. Respect.
[43:10]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I, I don't know how I feel about this.
[43:17]
Brianna Chickenfry
I texted Bryce the cameras are off. What? Who said that?
[43:19]
Josh Richards
No, I, I would assume not, but you know, I'm not there. So I, I, I talked to Bryce. He said that I asked him, did you kick his ass? And he said, pretty. What did he say? He said, honestly, it was pretty even, not gonna lie.
[43:37]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, so they really fought? No cameras. They just were. The boys were mad.
[43:40]
Josh Richards
He said no knockdowns or anything. Was a good spar. So. Yeah, I, I, I, I don't know. I don't get it. I don't get it. What is the point of that?
[43:49]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, what is. I mean, I guess they're just. That's so testosterone angry, bro.
[43:55]
Josh Richards
I'm confused. Why, why do all that? Just for like the sparring? Like, you're not even like, I get it. If you wanted cameras off. Let's fight for real and see what, bare knuckles? After all this back and Forth that's been going on, like, hey, let's just end this. Me and you will go, and then it's over. You know, we don't even need to tell the Internet what happened. I get that, but it's just a. Just a spar.
[44:21]
Brianna Chickenfry
Who would you spar if you could, besides me, call him out right now?
[44:28]
Josh Richards
Who would I spar if I could spar? Anybody?
[44:33]
Brianna Chickenfry
John Mayer.
[44:36]
Josh Richards
No. No.
[44:39]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, I know Abby from Last of Us.
[44:43]
Josh Richards
Would I her up. Give me Abby in the ring. No sparring, no headgear, sword fight gloves. No gloves, no nothing. I just want. I just want bare fist. Give me Abby.
[44:55]
Brianna Chickenfry
All right. I like that.
[44:56]
Josh Richards
Yeah. Yeah.
[44:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
Good stuff.
[44:58]
Josh Richards
There we go.
[44:59]
Brianna Chickenfry
Heard it here first. Josh is gonna beat up a woman in the ring, bare knuckles.
[45:03]
Josh Richards
And you know what? Everyone's gonna ride with me on that.
[45:06]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't even know the tea, but I'm riding with you. I'm rocking with you.
[45:09]
Josh Richards
Guarantee you everyone would be okay with it ever. Even feminists would look the other way.
[45:15]
Brianna Chickenfry
I like that. So she's really that bad? Oh, I have no idea.
[45:21]
Josh Richards
Oh, you will. You will have an idea.
[45:24]
Brianna Chickenfry
All right. I'm excited.
[45:25]
Josh Richards
You're not going to be able to sleep. You're not gonna be able to sleep. I'm telling you, I'll be like this. You're not gonna be so mad.
[45:31]
Brianna Chickenfry
I can't sleep. I'm shaking.
[45:32]
Josh Richards
You're gonna. You're gonna lay down on your pillow. Tears are gonna start coming. I genuinely had a dream that night after watching that episode where I was in the show.
[45:42]
Brianna Chickenfry
Like, oh, you were. You were like. You had a character or you were just, like.
[45:46]
Josh Richards
It was just me in the show. Like, I was just there, and I fell through a roof, and I did one of those, like. You know when, like, it's like that meme on the Internet where, like, boyfriends, like, glitch in their sleep or whatever.
[45:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[45:58]
Josh Richards
I didn't just do a little like. Or anything. I full on, like, hands up. Fell back into my bed and then, like, woke up, like. And Gabby was like, oh, my God. What just happened? Are you okay? And I was like. I just felt, like three stories. Took, like, 45 minutes to fall back to sleep. But no, this show is. It makes you feel. It makes you feel things.
[46:21]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, it makes you fall three stories in bed and cry on your pillow. I used to have an ex that would twitch so bad. One time, he twitched so hard, and this was. He was a big dude. He, like, he would, like, throw elbows and crazy in bed. And he twitched so hard one time he hit me like this, and I had a black eye. And, like, try explaining that. Like, no, he.
[46:39]
Josh Richards
Without it sounding like you're in a domestic.
[46:42]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, but I remember, like, I used to have to, in the middle of the night, like, put a barricade of pillows to protect myself from the twitches. It was.
[46:49]
Josh Richards
Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I. I've definitely given, like, a good, like, knee jab tag. Gabby on accident, guys.
[46:58]
Brianna Chickenfry
Jerking and twitching.
[47:01]
Josh Richards
Well, I think the jerking is something completely different than the. The twitching, but I'm assuming active. Active minds. We're sleeping. We're getting into our REM quickly or whatnot.
[47:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
And it's so annoying that. Are you the dude that can just hit the pillow, fall asleep?
[47:17]
Josh Richards
Sometimes I am. Sometimes I'm not.
[47:19]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, all right. Yeah, I'm mysterious.
[47:23]
Josh Richards
Yeah. It's hard to figure me out.
[47:25]
Brianna Chickenfry
They're so mysterious.
[47:26]
Josh Richards
Yeah.
[47:27]
Brianna Chickenfry
Justin Bieber is not mysterious. He's out here kissing Sexy Red.
[47:32]
Josh Richards
Wait a second.
[47:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
Hold up. Hold the phone.
[47:36]
Josh Richards
He. He didn't kiss Sexy Red.
[47:38]
Brianna Chickenfry
Just on the cheek.
[47:40]
Josh Richards
All right?
[47:41]
Brianna Chickenfry
I would kiss her on the butt cheeks. What? Who said that?
[47:45]
Josh Richards
This is where you lose me, Bri. This is where you lose me in these things.
[47:49]
Brianna Chickenfry
You wouldn't. No, I know you wouldn't. You're in love with Gabriella. Morale. Morale. Mora. Did she get her.
[47:56]
Josh Richards
For, like, two years?
[47:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
I know.
[47:58]
Josh Richards
Last name.
[47:58]
Brianna Chickenfry
I said it wrong because I was saying Gabriella, and then I said Moriella, but it's Gabria. Gabrielle. Mora. God, Gabby, your boyfriend's driving me crazy.
[48:07]
Josh Richards
Can't be a me thing. But anyways, I did see the video of him dancing around with Sexy Red.
[48:13]
Brianna Chickenfry
He's having fun. I don't get why everyone's freaking out. Justin Bieber is clearly trolling the whole entire Internet, and no one wants to wake up and be like, he's got us. He trolled us so hard.
[48:23]
Josh Richards
Also, like, I thought I just seen a video of him, like, being, like, when someone was offering him a bottle, so it seems like he's in, like, a sober vibe.
[48:30]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[48:31]
Josh Richards
I think he's just tired because he's probably a dad. He's having fun, and he's just, like, doing things, you know? But I don't know. I also saw him just post, like, a dump of Haley.
[48:44]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, they love. I love them. I've always been a fan of them. So I. I. This is funny that it's all coming back around. He's just, like, kissing Sexy Red.
[48:53]
Josh Richards
Yeah. Yeah. That is.
[48:55]
Brianna Chickenfry
I would, too. Oh, okay. Let's let's go. I'll read these. You tell me if you think if it's right.
[49:02]
Josh Richards
Okay.
[49:03]
Brianna Chickenfry
Okay. So this is Time's most influential people's list. So Time magazine released their list of 2025's most influential people. Here are the list of mainstream celebrities that were named for innovators, Nikki Glazier and Snoop Dogg.
[49:17]
Josh Richards
Yeah.
[49:18]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, right? Easy.
[49:19]
Josh Richards
Yep. Yeah, easy.
[49:21]
Brianna Chickenfry
Titans. I don't. I don't really like, does that. I don't really know what that means.
[49:26]
Josh Richards
Titans is just like big names.
[49:29]
Brianna Chickenfry
All right. Okay. Titans. Serena Williams.
[49:32]
Josh Richards
Okay.
[49:33]
Brianna Chickenfry
Simone Biles.
[49:35]
Josh Richards
Okay.
[49:35]
Brianna Chickenfry
Joe Rogan.
[49:37]
Josh Richards
Wait, Serena Williams?
[49:38]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[49:39]
Josh Richards
This year.
[49:40]
Brianna Chickenfry
I know. A little random, I think.
[49:44]
Josh Richards
I don't know. I. I guess I don't follow female tennis super closely, and that's on me.
[49:50]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, like, I would. She would be a Titan in her.
[49:52]
Josh Richards
The only thing I know about her is that she walked at the super bowl halftime show.
[49:59]
Brianna Chickenfry
That's pretty dope. Yeah, she's my Titan.
[50:01]
Josh Richards
I. I don't know if I agree with that one. I. I don't know. I haven't been keeping up with my. My S. Williams much, but.
[50:08]
Brianna Chickenfry
So you're giving her wrong.
[50:10]
Josh Richards
I think I. I think I'm giving a wrong answer. I feel like she's been a Titan. Like, she is clearly a goat and, like, has done crazy things for, like, female sports and whatnot. But I don't know about this year.
[50:24]
Brianna Chickenfry
Do you think if you're. If you're a Titan, you're. If you're once a Titan, you're always a Titan? Because I do.
[50:34]
Josh Richards
Yeah. But I don't think that means we're gonna, like, keep.
[50:38]
Brianna Chickenfry
Keep giving. Putting you in Titan title.
[50:40]
Josh Richards
Keep putting you in magazines about you being a Titan. You've had your page.
[50:44]
Brianna Chickenfry
You did your Titan. Yeah, you are. You're the Titan.
[50:46]
Josh Richards
Who's the. In this year? Like, they're like, you know, could have been Caitlyn Clark or Paige Buckers. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I would probably say Caitlyn Clark this year, but sure.
[51:00]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[51:01]
Josh Richards
Well, yeah, I just think there's other women in that sports world. Unless I'm missing something she's done, which if I am, then you know me.
[51:09]
Brianna Chickenfry
Then crucify him in the chat.
[51:11]
Josh Richards
Right. Tie me up. Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. So what's next?
[51:17]
Brianna Chickenfry
Ah, well, we had Joe Rogan, Mark Zuckerberg, Lauren Michaels, and Blake Lively. Blake Lively. They must have picked this list a little early.
[51:27]
Josh Richards
Yeah, yeah, yeah. This was like, right at this. This was like a Feeling delayed.
[51:32]
Brianna Chickenfry
This was a delayed list.
[51:34]
Josh Richards
Also it's like, bro, I don't care about Mark Zuckerberg being a titan dog. We know that.
[51:40]
Brianna Chickenfry
That I. I would be, like, putting.
[51:43]
Josh Richards
Down Elon Musk or, like, putting down, like, Jeff Bezos. Like, yeah, clearly they're like three of the richest.
[51:52]
Brianna Chickenfry
That's kind of how I feel about Serena Williams. It's like, yeah, obviously she's a titan. It's Serena.
[51:56]
Josh Richards
But that's. That's what I mean. Like, it already happened. Like, move on. Let's go to something new. Let's go to something new.
[52:01]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. All right. Artists for what? The artists. Oh, I guess artists aren't just singer artists. Ed Sheeran, Scarlett Johansson, Kristen Bell, Adam Scott, Rashida Jones, Nicole Scherzinger, Kristen Wier. Just seems random.
[52:19]
Josh Richards
Like, this is a random list. This is a random list. But okay. What? What?
[52:24]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, like, I'm rocking with all of them, but it just seems not like 2025's most influential people.
[52:31]
Josh Richards
Yeah. The Hozier yell, though.
[52:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
Well, yeah, he. Like, I.
[52:36]
Josh Richards
That was a trend this year.
[52:38]
Brianna Chickenfry
I guess I'm just like, yeah, maybe. Actually, that's all right. Kristen Wiig. I'm just not entirely sure what she was in this year, but again, I'm a dumbass.
[52:48]
Josh Richards
Right, right, right. We're not keeping up with the now.
[52:50]
Brianna Chickenfry
It's on us Icons. Demi Moore, Jalen Hurts, Adrian Brody.
[52:56]
Josh Richards
Demi Moore, Jalen Hurts.
[52:59]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, Demi Moore, Jalen Hurts, and Adrian Brody. I'm rocking with that.
[53:02]
Josh Richards
Yes, yes, yes. The. Those are the most yeses.
[53:05]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, that one's like. That one seems time sensitive. Like, that was this year.
[53:10]
Josh Richards
Yeah, that. That's the best. The best list so far.
[53:14]
Brianna Chickenfry
We got our last list leaders. Donald Trump, Elon Musk, JD Vance, and rfk.
[53:23]
Josh Richards
So just like, hey, here are some, like, people that were involved in politics.
[53:26]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. Could you guess?
[53:27]
Josh Richards
So leaders. And then they throw down the president. It's like, yeah, probably.
[53:33]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. Isn't that the leader of the country?
[53:36]
Josh Richards
Yeah, that's. That's a stupid list. I don't like that list. That whole list is dumb except for the one.
[53:41]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[53:42]
Josh Richards
That. That was like the most. There was nothing. There was nothing to that list.
[53:47]
Brianna Chickenfry
There was no curveballs. I like it. It was all once in a while.
[53:50]
Josh Richards
Also. It just like, I. Leaders. The people you guys elected to be leaders.
[53:58]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. What about the unsung hero leaders?
[54:00]
Josh Richards
That's what I'm looking for.
[54:01]
Brianna Chickenfry
What about me?
[54:02]
Josh Richards
That's what I'm looking for. Like, what? What do you mean? What do you mean?
[54:06]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, what the hell? What the helly?
[54:08]
Josh Richards
Now I Don't know if I would have put down pegs, but Hags. It's with an A. I. I just. I don't. I don't.
[54:16]
Brianna Chickenfry
Can you spell my last name?
[54:18]
Josh Richards
La Paglia.
[54:19]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yep.
[54:20]
Josh Richards
L, A, P, A, G, L, I, A.
[54:28]
Brianna Chickenfry
Right answer. Thanks, buddy. Thanks, Joshua. Ice bucket challenge comes back around. I want to get nominated.
[54:36]
Josh Richards
I just got nominated yesterday.
[54:37]
Brianna Chickenfry
Can you nominate me?
[54:39]
Josh Richards
I don't think about it.
[54:40]
Brianna Chickenfry
Okay.
[54:41]
Josh Richards
Who nominated a lot of Harry Jowsey?
[54:44]
Brianna Chickenfry
Wow. He's strong. Big muscles, blue eyes, strong boy. I'm just stating the obvious.
[54:55]
Josh Richards
Right? Right. Like the list.
[54:58]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. Who else did he nominate?
[54:59]
Josh Richards
I. I don't know. I think Bryce. He nominated me. Bryce and somebody else. I don't remember.
[55:06]
Brianna Chickenfry
When are you gonna do it?
[55:07]
Josh Richards
I was thinking about doing it today, maybe.
[55:09]
Brianna Chickenfry
Ooh. Who's gonna pour the ice water on your head?
[55:11]
Josh Richards
I'll probably get Gabby to pour it on my head.
[55:13]
Brianna Chickenfry
Are you gonna. Are you gonna be real about it? Are you gonna pour, like, a bucket of ice into the ice water? Because I keep seeing people just pour cold water on their head.
[55:20]
Josh Richards
No, that's lame. It's got to be ice.
[55:21]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, it's. You have to put ice in it.
[55:23]
Josh Richards
Part of it is getting hit by ice cubes, I think.
[55:26]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. And you should have Gabby dump it from the roof so it hits you really hard.
[55:30]
Josh Richards
That's a really good idea, actually. We'll do that.
[55:31]
Brianna Chickenfry
I think that'll be funny.
[55:32]
Josh Richards
No, that's really funny. That's a great idea.
[55:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[55:35]
Josh Richards
Totally using that.
[55:36]
Brianna Chickenfry
Cool. All right, guys, quick commercial break. You asked. Ghost listens. They always do. Straw Bango is here to stay permanently. And it's now sold exclusively at Circle K. Ghost Energy is, like my favorite energy drink in the whole entire world. The flavors are incredible. The taste is amazing. It's 200 milligrams of natural caffeine. It makes you focused. It doesn't make you jittery. It tastes good. There's zero added sugar, zero artificial flavoring, but it tastes exactly like a sweet treat, and it makes you feel good. You could see my energy from the beginning of the podcast to the end just spike up, and I started talking more and being more energetic because I was drinking my ghost throughout the episode. It's the best. It's fully transparent parent, fully loaded. Feel good energy. If you haven't tried it yet, I really don't know what you're waiting for. It's the best energy drink on the market. The flavors are incredible, and it just tastes good, and it makes you feel good. Like I said no artificial flavoring and zero sugars. So it's now sold nationwide at Circle K stores. And here to stay is the straw bangle flavor. Make sure to check it out. Let's get back to the episode. New Academy Award announcement. The Academy is now implementing a new rule that members must now watch all nominated films in each category to be eligible to vote in the final rounds. Don't you think that should have been a rule? Is that not a rule?
[56:41]
Josh Richards
Yeah. What?
[56:42]
Brianna Chickenfry
So we were just out here not watching and just picking and just.
[56:46]
Josh Richards
It's not a multiple choice test that you just breeze through by guessing B every time.
[56:50]
Brianna Chickenfry
How can you pick what's the best if you haven't watched them all?
[56:54]
Josh Richards
This is why those award shows always get slack, dude. Is because of this stuff. Like I know. And then people wonder why, like people boycotted or like don't go or whatever. Yeah. You gotta watch the movies.
[57:11]
Brianna Chickenfry
Movies that are nominated to pick the best one.
[57:14]
Josh Richards
That's. It's the bare minimum.
[57:16]
Brianna Chickenfry
I thought that was the one rule. That should have been the only rule ever. One rule.
[57:20]
Josh Richards
The only ever rule should have been you gotta watch all these.
[57:23]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[57:24]
Josh Richards
If you want to vote, you gotta watch them all.
[57:26]
Brianna Chickenfry
We should start our own award show. And we'll be honest and fair and truthful.
[57:30]
Josh Richards
Yep. You're right. Probably more honest and truthful than that. Yeah, I guess we'll watch the movies.
[57:36]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. I love movies. It's like my favorite thing to do is watch a movie.
[57:39]
Josh Richards
Come on, Academy.
[57:40]
Brianna Chickenfry
Come on, Academy. Get with it. Oh, we have some past story updates that we talked about before. Now we're updated.
[57:45]
Josh Richards
All right, let's rip it.
[57:47]
Brianna Chickenfry
Sean Kingston in custody after not paying bond. Remember he went to jail with his mama?
[57:51]
Josh Richards
Yep. So not going to be that many beautiful girls in there.
[57:55]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, no, no, no, no. He'll. He'll find one. He'll find one. He'll make one. Or maybe he'll be the beautiful girl.
[58:01]
Josh Richards
Maybe he'll be the beautiful girl.
[58:03]
Brianna Chickenfry
Sean Kingston is back behind bars. Oh, he's back because he didn't sing it, Jay. I just did sing more.
[58:09]
Josh Richards
Nah, you missed your moment.
[58:11]
Brianna Chickenfry
Well, he's back behind bars because he didn't pay his bond. So he's 35 year old musician will remain in federal. I thought he had to have been like 45. But he's only 35. He's gonna remain there until sentencing unless he can secure the money for the hundred thousand dollar bond. You would think he would have 100 grand. You would think Fyre Fest 2 postponed? No. After months of assuring fans that they had dished out money on tickets that range from a couple of thousand dollars to one million dollar packages from the now postponed Fyre Festival 2 founder Billy McFarlane has sold some of the IP rights to Fry's name to a forthcoming new music streamer, according to Deadline. Although Billy will still own the rights to the festival itself, some of the ip, including two trademarks of Fyre Festival, have been sold to Sean R, who also founded the True Blue streaming services. I mean, why would anyone give like you're asking to be scammed?
[59:02]
Josh Richards
I know, I. It blows my mind, but, like, I feel like it's almost one of those things now that it's like it's so bad or it's like it's going to be such a show, you kind of want to go and see the.
[59:14]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, that's fair. That's what we said last time, I think.
[59:16]
Josh Richards
Yeah. So I kind of get it. Like, that would be a hilarious dream. Like to get to go and stream Fyre Fest would be funny.
[59:25]
Brianna Chickenfry
Well, it's not happening anymore. It's postponed again.
[59:28]
Josh Richards
Damn it.
[59:29]
Brianna Chickenfry
Well, we asked. Also, we asked the chat for hot takes and they gave us their hot takes. And we'll see if we agree if we think they're hot or they're cold.
[59:36]
Josh Richards
Cool.
[59:37]
Brianna Chickenfry
All right, first one, Trisha Paytas, baby, will be the reincarnation of Pope Francis. RIP didn't she already say this?
[59:46]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I think that's a. That's a hot take in the sense of like, you may burn in hell.
[59:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, right.
[59:59]
Josh Richards
It's a crazy statement to make.
[60:00]
Brianna Chickenfry
It's a little. A little bizarre.
[60:03]
Josh Richards
Also, like, the Pope definitely doesn't believe in reincarnation.
[60:07]
Brianna Chickenfry
No. He believes in heaven and hell.
[60:09]
Josh Richards
Yeah.
[60:09]
Brianna Chickenfry
This whole stick.
[60:11]
Josh Richards
So, like, that's. That's a big middle finger to the Pope to be like, you're gonna get reincarnated. The Trisha Paytas part is just the cherry on top, but like, the. The reincarnation part's just like F you to the religion, you know?
[60:27]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, yeah.
[60:28]
Josh Richards
I know there's other religions that believe in. In reincarnation, but I'm just saying that's not his.
[60:33]
Brianna Chickenfry
That's not his.
[60:34]
Josh Richards
That's not his.
[60:35]
Brianna Chickenfry
Do you believe in reincarnation?
[60:39]
Josh Richards
No, I don't think I do.
[60:42]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't know what I believe in.
[60:43]
Josh Richards
I really just don't think I believe that.
[60:45]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't believe. Okay, that sounds good.
[60:49]
Josh Richards
I mean, it sounded.
[60:52]
Brianna Chickenfry
Taylor Holder will actually beat the. Out of Bryce Hall. That's A hot take.
[60:57]
Josh Richards
Yeah.
[60:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
No, according to Bryce's text back though, it sounded like, like kinda. He wasn't like, I beat the out of him. He was like, it was fair.
[61:05]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I think it probably was. I think it was probably. It's a sparring match. Like again, like that's what I'm confused about.
[61:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[61:12]
Josh Richards
Why didn't you guys, why aren't you guys going for, for the knockouts? But if you have headgear on in gloves, I mean it's pretty hard to knock somebody out.
[61:20]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, that's fair. Mel Robbins is overrated and her advice is common sense. That's a hot take for sure.
[61:27]
Josh Richards
What's her name?
[61:28]
Brianna Chickenfry
Mel Robbins.
[61:29]
Josh Richards
I don't know who that is.
[61:31]
Brianna Chickenfry
I do and I love her and I think that her advice sometimes may sound like common sense. If you have your head on straight and you're like very self aware. But to a lot of people that she's preaching to, I think she changes a lot of lives. So you should be consider yourself lucky that you think it's common sense because a lot of people need her words. That's how I feel.
[61:51]
Josh Richards
Shout out Mel.
[61:52]
Brianna Chickenfry
Shout out Mel. Addison Rae is going to be the next big pop star.
[62:00]
Josh Richards
I don't know if I think that that's that hard of a take, honestly.
[62:04]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, I feel like. Here's the thing though. I feel like she's been trying for what, the past two years? Like, I don't know. Don't. Don't you think it would have happened already?
[62:14]
Josh Richards
Ah, she's got, she's getting the streams. I'll tell you that. The numbers are there like when you drive.
[62:20]
Brianna Chickenfry
I mean, I, I have all of her songs downloaded.
[62:22]
Josh Richards
The, the numbers for her music are there. I think it's just.
[62:28]
Brianna Chickenfry
She needs an album.
[62:29]
Josh Richards
It's touring. It's like touring in an album now. Like, she hasn't done any touring. She hasn't done that, like album release. It's gonna be up to that. Like, can she go and drop an album and tour? That's gonna, I think, bring it to the next level.
[62:41]
Brianna Chickenfry
That's when you're an actual pop star. If you can tour and like do what Charlie XCX does.
[62:46]
Josh Richards
Yes.
[62:48]
Brianna Chickenfry
This is the. Did I write this? Timothy and Kylie make sense. I've been saying this for the past year and a half and no one wanted to or however long they've been dating. No one wanted to back me up. Now everyone's Team Kylie, Team Timmy.
[63:00]
Josh Richards
Yeah, go for it.
[63:02]
Brianna Chickenfry
I mean, Kylie, Tick tock is killing music creatively. Artists are making songs for trends, not albums. That's true.
[63:09]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I think, I mean, I think that goes to like, a couple things though. I think, like, music was changing before Tick Tock. Like, people were starting to shorten their songs or people were saying, you know, like, we used to have like five minute songs all the time and then it like goes down to like the 3 minute 30. Now you're seeing like 2 minutes and 30. But I feel like you definitely see it in, like, Playboi Cardi's recent album. Like, it feels like all the songs were made for, like, Tick Tock edits.
[63:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, exactly. Like, and people just want, like that one 15 second hook where it goes trending and then you people will download the song and just wait for that. They won't learn any of the other lyrics to the song.
[63:46]
Josh Richards
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I. I somewhat agree. I somewhat agree.
[63:51]
Brianna Chickenfry
Are you a big WWE Smackdown or WWE fan?
[63:56]
Josh Richards
Oh, yeah.
[63:57]
Brianna Chickenfry
Did you watch the recent One WrestleMania Wrestle? Is that what, What? John Cena's final fight. He's the Rain.
[64:02]
Josh Richards
Final fight. He's the goat. He's the goat. The greatest of all time. Josh wins the 17th championship belt. Goaded.
[64:10]
Brianna Chickenfry
I couldn't believe my eyes. I was hanging out with my friends from home and the guys were all freaking out. Like, WWE's on. WWE is on. I thought this was, like, huge, like, old news. I didn't think people actually still watched it and. Okay, can you. You agree with me on this though? John Cena, that was a bad fight. Why was he, like, moving in slow motion?
[64:29]
Josh Richards
Well, you know, when I was watching, I was a little bit. I will say I was a little bit let down in the performance of this. Yeah, I. I hate to say that. I hate to say that. I love John Cena. I've been watching WrestleMania forever, you know, now I maybe I think I've missed one WrestleMania in the last, like, five years. Before that, I watched like, every single one. Maybe I've missed two in the last five years. Been to like two.
[64:58]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh, I didn't know you were this into it. Why.
[65:00]
Josh Richards
Why are the people that are so up on wwe? I had an Instagram account where we reenacted WWE finishing moves and posted them online. That was like my first social media account when I was like, maybe eight.
[65:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
The five Shuffle.
[65:13]
Josh Richards
Oh, we were doing it all, man. We were doing it all. RKO, you know, the F5. Like, we were doing everything. So the Brain Blaster.
[65:23]
Brianna Chickenfry
I learned a lot this weekend.
[65:25]
Josh Richards
Yeah, okay.
[65:26]
Brianna Chickenfry
There was the Brain Blaster is a move.
[65:28]
Josh Richards
Yeah. I, I wasn't like an OG move. I was kind of going more of like the Brock Lesnar day, but. Or at least I, maybe, maybe I'm wrong and I'm gonna look like an idiot, but I don't remember that one. But anyways, yeah, no, I, I loved, I love WWE and I love John Cena. He was always my favorite. You can't see me, but I, I kind of was a little bit like, I got the, the heel of it all. Like John Cena turning heel, becoming the bad guy to win the last one. I thought that made sense for the storyline and everything, but I just felt like the moves were like, it seemed like he's older, he's older. They are older now. Their bodies probably can't take as much of the high flying and craziness that they used to. But I also wasn't a fan of Travis Scott entering.
[66:16]
Brianna Chickenfry
Why the Josh. I don't watch wwe and I was very confused to all of it. And then Travis Scott came in and he got, he got. What is it called? What's the other guy's move?
[66:28]
Josh Richards
Crossroads. Yeah, crossroads.
[66:31]
Brianna Chickenfry
Crossroads. And he had his glasses on. I was like, what the. Travis Scott, what the are you doing here?
[66:37]
Josh Richards
Yeah. And it's like they kind of built that in the story. Like Travis Scott slapped Cody Rhodes in like a past event. But to me, it's like you're going and feeding like an OG audience in the way by giving John Cena the 17th belt. Like, that's who's appreciating. Like, the people that are truly appreciating John Cena winning this and becoming the Goat aren't like new gen WWE fans. It's the generation. Like, I'm probably the last of the generation that's enjoying it, right? And then it's like everyone older. So like for us, bring Travis Scott into a different match at the event or something like Logan. Why? It should have been like the Rock that came out. It should have been like stone Cold that came. Like, if the Rock came out, that would have been, oh, my God.
[67:26]
Brianna Chickenfry
In the storyline chair.
[67:28]
Josh Richards
Well, the Rock, he was there when Travis always were kinda, you know, like back and forth in their days too. Like.
[67:35]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah.
[67:35]
Josh Richards
So if the Rock came in to like help Cena, you know, he grabs the ref to help Cena become the Goat. Like, that's really, really, really cool.
[67:44]
Brianna Chickenfry
My guy friends were convinced, like, no, the Rock's gonna come out. The Rock's gonna come out.
[67:47]
Josh Richards
Yeah.
[67:48]
Brianna Chickenfry
I mean, he never did.
[67:49]
Josh Richards
Yeah, yeah. So that's my take. That's my take. I thought it was awesome to see him get the, you know, the official goat status, but I don't know. I would have liked it.
[67:58]
Brianna Chickenfry
That is a world that I didn't know was that big.
[68:02]
Josh Richards
Huge.
[68:03]
Brianna Chickenfry
All right, we got three more hot takes. Men shouldn't wear flip flops.
[68:10]
Josh Richards
Flip flops? What are we talking, like, Birkenstocks don't count, right? Like slides.
[68:15]
Brianna Chickenfry
Thongs.
[68:17]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I can rock with that.
[68:19]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, I think let's. Let's just keep those feet, like, under control.
[68:24]
Josh Richards
Wear, like, burks. If you're a dude, wear slides.
[68:27]
Brianna Chickenfry
Unless I get the whole hot surfer dude, though.
[68:30]
Josh Richards
Depends. You're still not. You're still probably not wearing flip flops, right?
[68:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't know. I just. I don't think I've ever really seen a guy wearing flip flops and been like.
[68:40]
Josh Richards
The only time I've worn flip flops is when like. Like there was, like, a flip flop and, you know, running shoe at the door, and I, like, put one of each on to go grab, like, the groceries out of the back of my mom's car. Yeah, that's the only time I've. I think I've worn a flip flop in my life.
[68:55]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, I don't really see guys and flip flops too much.
[68:58]
Josh Richards
No, I don't think that's much of a thing.
[69:00]
Brianna Chickenfry
You got to be, like, a stud if you're wearing flip flops.
[69:03]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I'm gonna go no on the flip flops, But I could be convinced other eyes. Send me some pictures of men in flip flops.
[69:09]
Brianna Chickenfry
Ah, don't send those to me. Send those to freaky Josh. You want?
[69:13]
Josh Richards
I don't really think about what I was saying as I said it. Don't send me the pictures of men in flip flops.
[69:18]
Brianna Chickenfry
Do it. Chat. Do it.
[69:20]
Josh Richards
Don't do it.
[69:21]
Brianna Chickenfry
Wait. This next one's funny, and I agree with it. Low key. Dave and Bhad Bhabie would be a cute couple. She would whoop his ass.
[69:32]
Josh Richards
That would be the funniest thing ever.
[69:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
The best couple it would make.
[69:36]
Josh Richards
It would be the best content of all time. Let's get like.
[69:40]
Brianna Chickenfry
Like.
[69:42]
Josh Richards
A Love in the Spectrum show on Bad Baby Portnoy. Not that they're on the spectrum. It was just the first romantic show that came to my head.
[69:52]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, maybe, like, a love is block. I don't know. A lot too hot to handle these two.
[69:55]
Josh Richards
Sure.
[69:56]
Brianna Chickenfry
Just follow them around with the camera, please.
[69:58]
Josh Richards
Follow them around. Make them fall in love.
[70:00]
Brianna Chickenfry
Make them fall. We should. Oh, my gosh. We should try to set them up. Oh, Dave has a girlfriend.
[70:04]
Josh Richards
Yeah.
[70:04]
Brianna Chickenfry
Totally forgotten. But in an ulterior. Ulterior. In an alternate universe, they would be a good couple.
[70:13]
Josh Richards
Very alternate. Very, very alternate universe.
[70:16]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. It would be the most alternate. All right, last one. The fucking overanalyzing of Coachella. Guys, it's music and drugs. We went and had fun. Yeah, exactly. I don't know why people, like, read into everything.
[70:31]
Josh Richards
Sure. I don't think that's, like, that hard of a take.
[70:33]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, that's pretty. It's pretty chill. Ice cold cake.
[70:36]
Josh Richards
Yeah.
[70:36]
Brianna Chickenfry
Ice cold beer. BFFs corner. Gabby got banned from Tick Tock.
[70:41]
Josh Richards
Yeah. They thought she was 13. How? I don't know. I've never seen a 13 year old look like that.
[70:47]
Brianna Chickenfry
I'd be like, why you banned me? You think I'm 13? That is so nice.
[70:52]
Josh Richards
I. I think it's weird. So I. I don't really understand. Tick Tock. Come on now. Get on it. Help us out. Get the account back. Been like a week. That's.
[71:02]
Brianna Chickenfry
Oh for band.
[71:04]
Josh Richards
Yeah. It's way too long for a creator her size to not get an account back right away.
[71:08]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah. Chad. Hashtag Free Gabby.
[71:10]
Josh Richards
Hashtag free Gabby, please. Free commented on all of Tick Tock socials. Hashtag free Gabby.
[71:16]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, DM right now. Hashtag free Gabby.
[71:18]
Josh Richards
Yep.
[71:19]
Brianna Chickenfry
Gabriella Mora. Oh, Brianna went home for Easter. Yeah. We kind of talked about this. Oh, my gosh, Jay. I don't know if you remember. I don't know if we talked about it on BFFs or. I talked about more on Plan Brie. But I always have crazy neighbor stories. Like, three apartments ago, I had a neighbor that I thought was murdering people, like, Jeffrey Dahmer style. And he would, like, come up to my ring doorbell in the middle of the night. Like, it was a big, ongoing fiasco.
[71:45]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I remember that.
[71:46]
Brianna Chickenfry
It went, like, pretty mega viral and shit. And I, like, moved out and, like, never saw the guy again. And I didn't know if he was alive, dead, what happened. But now I live in a new building. People are confused because it's an elevator building, so we don't have a doorman or, like a lobby. And everyone has their own floor. So to get to your floor, the elevator opens to your apartment, but you need a specific key fob. So everyone has their own floor key fob.
[72:11]
Josh Richards
Okay.
[72:11]
Brianna Chickenfry
And there's this guy, Michael, who lives in my building, and he always gets a lot of packages, and he always, like, picks them up right away. And he has, like, two dogs. He lives the floor below me, I think. Cause I can always hear his dogs barking. So for the past three months, his packages has just been, like, building up and building up and building up, and. Which is fine because, like, people travel or whatever. Sometimes I have so many packages build up, but it got to the point where there's, like, a monitor, like, there's a bunch of computers. There's, like, a printer, like, stuff that you wouldn't like. You order that, you want to bring it in. It's been three months. I hear his dogs barking. I haven't heard Michael. Haven't seen Michael. And my head goes to. He's dead, and his dogs are, like, eating his body, or that's where my head goes. And I'm really concerned. So I wrote a letter and I put it in the elevator yesterday that said, hey. Dear Michael, I don't care about your packages. I care about you. Please check this box off if you're alive. And I put it in the elevator, and he hasn't checked it yet. Guys, I'm cracking up. We have a Michael update. Dear concerned neighbor, I am indeed alive and kicking. I was away on business, and I really did not expect all these deliveries so soon. Sorry for clogging up the lobby elevator for the past week or so also, and mostly, thanks for your concern. Please reach out if you need anyone alive. I can't. The fucking alive. Chef's kiss. That is awesome. All right. Michael's alive. We don't have to worry anymore. Am I crazy for doing that?
[73:41]
Josh Richards
You hear his dogs, right? Like, they're still going.
[73:43]
Brianna Chickenfry
I hear the dogs. And that's why I'm concerned. Because if you have dogs, like, maybe he has a dog walker, and he's gone. I don't really know. I'm just concerned about it.
[73:53]
Josh Richards
Huh. Yeah. No, I think. I think that's a right full reason to be concerned.
[74:01]
Brianna Chickenfry
Okay. Yeah.
[74:01]
Josh Richards
And we'll see if someone has, like, a daily habit of doing something all the time, and then they just all of a sudden, stop, don't. That's a little strange.
[74:10]
Brianna Chickenfry
It's a little strange. So if he does. I gave him. In my head. I give him the end of the day to respond to the note. And if not, then I'm gonna tell the business. The building manager to do a wellness check.
[74:21]
Josh Richards
Yeah, Right. I think that makes sense. What's the harm in doing.
[74:24]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, what's the harm? I just don't want to overstep. But I'm also.
[74:26]
Josh Richards
There's no negative side. It's just like, yo, I'm sorry. I. I was worried.
[74:30]
Brianna Chickenfry
I'm just an overthinker. I'm a little worried about you, Mike.
[74:33]
Josh Richards
Yeah? Yeah, I don't think that's bad.
[74:34]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't think that's bad at all. I think that's all of our bf. That's all of our bff's. Corner. We covered it all. Wonderful, wonderful. Josh, when will I see you in person again?
[74:45]
Josh Richards
You're not coming to Stagecoach?
[74:48]
Brianna Chickenfry
No, definitely not.
[74:50]
Josh Richards
Why?
[74:51]
Brianna Chickenfry
I don't know. Not really into country music, huh?
[74:57]
Josh Richards
Well, I guess if not at Stage Coach, if not at Stagecoach, I'll see the following week.
[75:03]
Brianna Chickenfry
I think you're coming to New York, actually. Check the camera.
[75:05]
Josh Richards
Yeah. All right.
[75:06]
Brianna Chickenfry
All right. Have fun at Stagecoach. Make sure to. Oh, you know what you should wear night one of Stagecoach?
[75:11]
Josh Richards
What?
[75:12]
Brianna Chickenfry
Your Smallest man shirt.
[75:14]
Josh Richards
Yeah, I was thinking of bringing some merch.
[75:16]
Brianna Chickenfry
Yeah, you should.
[75:17]
Josh Richards
I'm trying to think of what to do there.
[75:19]
Brianna Chickenfry
Cool.
[75:19]
Josh Richards
I have some ideas.
[75:20]
Brianna Chickenfry
