Imagine never having to buy gas again.

Sounds like a dream, except it's real.

That's everyday life with an electric vehicle.

No long lines at the pump, just plug in at home and go.

EVs are as easy to charge as your phone and built for real life.

Most Americans drive about 40 miles a day and most EVs go 200 to 400 miles on a single

charge.

And with fewer moving parts, you've got fewer repairs.

And style, there are hundreds of new and used EV models to choose from.

This is Angela Yee from Angela Yee's lip service.

One in four people in the US has been to a Planned Parenthood Health Center for a life-saving

and life-changing care.

We're talking about birth control, annual exams, cancer screenings, STI testing and treatment

and more, high quality, expert judgment-free care.

And despite lawmakers' efforts to shut them down, they're not going anywhere.

Care continues at Planned Parenthood so that you can get the unbiased high quality health

care that you need to learn more.

Hey, I'm Freddie Prinz, Jr. on my podcast wrestling with Freddie.

We talk about what happens when things take a turn in and outside of the ring.

Like when the heel wrestlers back you up into a corner and your tag team partner jumps

in to have your back.

It helps to have backup.

That's why so many people turn to their state farm agent to help choose the coverage

you need and to be there when it counts.

Because when life gets unpredictable, it's good to know someone's in your corner.

Like a good neighbor.

State Farm is there.

This is the Ed's with Eddie Judge and Edwin Arroyave.

Welcome back to the Ed's.

My name is Eddie Judge.

I am doing a solo today because my dear co-host, Edwin, was too busy.

Busy, busy, busy guy.

But I got good news.

We have a great guest today.

His name is Adam Neely and he is a resus husband from the Valley Persian style.

And I say it that way because I feel your pain, Adam.

Every time somebody sees me, he's like, hey, you're a tear must husband.

Yeah.

I have a name.

I have a name.

It's Eddie Judge.

Okay.

And Adam, you have a name.

I do.

And it's not resus husband.

So this is the first season of the Valley.

But you and the resident have been on probable family before on a show called Shaws of Sunset.

I do remember watching a little bit of that show.

In fact, well, let me start by welcoming you to the Ed's podcast.

Thanks, Eddie.

So yeah, a little bit about the Shaws of Sunset when it came out.

My wife was watching it and you know, like just like the housewives, I get a little

glimpse here, little glimpse there and she kind of tells me what's going on.

Now that she has her own podcast, I get to hear about every single housewives show.

Are you going to only imagine?

But I remember a Shaws of Sunset being a big deal, being a lot of fun.

And of course, Resa was a big personality on there.

And my wife was star stroke.

I've never seen her ever star stroke the very first time we actually crossed paths at

a probable event.

And she lost her, when she saw Resa, I'm like, what is going on here?

Resa's got that effect on people.

He just like draws people in.

He's very charismatic and obviously that's one of the many reasons why I married him.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, we'll get plenty of time to talk about him.

But first, let's talk about you.

I want to get to know who Adam nearly is.

Tell us about you.

Where did you grow up?

I grew up in Oklahoma.

Oh, wow.

But actually, my follow-up for the government.

So I kind of traveled all over the US, but anyone asked me where I grew up.

I would say Oklahoma, since that's where my parents still live.

And I spent the majority of my time there.

OK.

And then I'm off.

And do you go back?

Never.

Never?

OK.

OK, go back there.

And it's like there's a lot of great qualities, but I go back there.

And I feel like, when am I going to do?

Because I'm used to always being on the go and having something to do.

It's like my parents, they live in the country.

OK.

And so there's not a whole lot happening in the country,

unless you want to go, like, stir up some cattle or something, so.

Makes sense.

I did see a clip.

I don't know if it was on your Instagram or on TV,

but you guys have a garden in your backyard.

Oh, yeah.

That's where the garden came from.

Oh, I love it.

I love it.

I was so envious watching.

You had all kinds of different fruits back there.

That is awesome.

A lot of it was actually Persian inspired, because there's, like, Reza.

He's very particular about what he eats, how particular about what I eat.

And so I really got into, on this season of the valley,

you get to see me get into, like, fermenting and pickling and just a bunch of, like, fun

garden stuff.

Are you on a particular diet?

Like, are you a vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian?

I am.

I'm a vegan starting to lean towards pescatarian, which is another reason why I want to grow

my own veggies.

Yeah.

How long have you been a vegan?

Oh, my God.

Since 2020, like, right before the first shutdown, I got really sick and it did something

to me.

So anytime I eat anything, animal product related, minus fish, I just get really sick.

Yeah.

That's interesting, because the same thing has been happening to my wife ever since, you

know, COVID.

She has, every time I make a steak or any animal protein, she kind of, like, doesn't enjoy

it anymore.

I don't get, I don't understand why.

Yeah, I, but I don't understand.

I mean, I wish I was a doctor.

I knew why, but, um, no, I love being a vegan.

It's like the benefits, like, you, you look more, you look younger, you're glowing.

And everyone's like, I don't, are you sure you're in your 40s because you look like

you're in your 30s and, and then, and Resu gets a little sassy.

What people say about it.

Well, I gotta tell you, um, I've been healthy most of my life.

I haven't been perfect, but I always contribute my, my eating habits and my workout habits

to stay in and feeling young.

Now, I'm in my early 50s and I'm starting to get these weird pains that I'd never had

before that everybody told me about, like, where the hell did that pain come from?

You know, it's usually relating to a bruise or a crash I had on my bike.

It has a, a purpose, right, or a reason.

Now they just come out of nowhere.

I'm like, why does my shoulder hurt?

Do, do stem cells, GG9, we just got back from Columbia, or um, or umbilical stem cells.

And I feel like five or 10 years younger.

Really?

Like, I feel amazing.

Like, it's, uh, we went for umbilical stem cells and both, these types of stem cells are,

uh, universal.

So anybody can, can take them.

Awesome.

Awesome.

And it's, wow.

Night and day.

My knees don't crack.

My brain fog is gone.

My vision's gone.

Wow.

It's.

Wow.

Wow.

How, uh, two questions.

One, how, how much are they and how often second question, how often do you have to

do it?

Um, one should be enough, but if you want to go back for a tune up, uh, like every few

years, if you want it, uh, um, it's not cheap, but it's cheaper in Columbia than it is

in the States.

Oh, yeah.

Everything is cheaper outside of the United States.

Yeah.

But it's totally worth it.

Um, I got to try that.

That's interesting.

So look up the human wellness center.

They're amazing.

They.

Wow.

I'm just going to say wow.

Yeah.

So let's see, you eat healthy, you eat your, uh, vegan, trying to be pescatarian.

Um, do you work out regularly?

I do.

I do, I do jujitsu.

I do regular workout training.

I do yoga, resin, I do yoga together all the time.

Yeah.

Awesome.

And one of the reasons why I try to say it, it's because I'm also an editor and that's

one thing that people don't know about me is that I'm a TV and film editor.

People think I just love this lavish lifestyle because Rosa pays for it, but I can

treat you too.

Yeah.

That's, that's a common no more, um, you know, just people assume, uh, I can't tell you

how many times people that, oh, I'm just a boy toy.

And of course, it doesn't help when my wife, you know, we go to, I think it was, uh, that's

the other thing we got in common.

We both got married on TV.

Uh, when we did the bachelor party, she decided I wasn't really good shape at the time.

She decided it was a good idea to get these, um, swim shorts, like European style swim

shorts and tack, uh, boy toy on the back of it and go to Vegas for our, um, you know,

bachelor, bachelor at party and put chains on me and like, yeah, okay, that's going to

go really well with the audience.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's funny.

Do you ever get hate, hate DMs?

Like you're such a gold digging hobag and oh, yeah, yeah, I, I mean, I can't tell you

how many different, um, varieties, the beautiful thing is that I've discovered, uh, blocking systems

a long time ago.

And there was a short period where I decided, okay, maybe I shouldn't block because I read

something that it's better to have more followers, but then I, then it changed to, it's all

about engagement.

So I went and blocked all those heads, any, any bad comments out, anything bad about my

wife out, anything bad about the show out.

Same.

I, uh, I'm like, why are people hating on me just because I'm on a TV show, like me alone?

Yeah.

Yeah.

So you do have a background in production, um, is that why you moved to LA to be a producer

or to be in the, in the Hollywood scene?

Honestly, I didn't know what I wanted to do.

It was like, either I was going to stay in Oklahoma and work on a farm or do something related

to it or, uh, move out to LA.

And I lived out here for six months before my parents found out I moved up here.

You just ran away.

What did you do?

Well, the, it actually worked out very poetically.

So the day I moved here, they were moving to Georgia.

Oh.

And, uh, so my parents thought that I was still in Oklahoma and, uh, they were like, oh,

hey, your dad's friend is about to go out to California for a week.

Um, he wants to stop by and look at your car to make sure it's running okay.

And I'm like, well, you can just tone stop by my new place.

Um, and she was very confused, didn't understand it.

And then I was like, I moved to, uh, moved to LA.

Well, your parents are away.

Yeah.

So this was 21 years ago.

I was, yeah, I was a baby.

That's funny.

So let me, let me take a few steps back because I really like to get to know the real person

about you growing up.

What was your childhood?

Was like, were you in a farm?

No, I, I just grew up in the, in the country side.

Like, you don't have a farm per se, but we had a few acres, a lot of dogs.

Um, no, fun, and that was it.

Uh, and so like the closest neighbor was like miles down the street, um, which was great.

But, um, no, I, like, my high school is very country.

I graduated with a low, over a hundred people, which is, yeah, um, I'm the youngest

of three boys, both my brothers went to a different high school where they graduated with

like two or three thousand people and, um, are you the oldest?

I'm the youngest.

Oh, you're the youngest.

So I'm the youngest.

So you went to the local school.

Okay.

Yeah.

I went to the local school.

They finished at the high school, uh, in the town we moved away from.

Okay.

And, uh, yeah, and that's it.

I pretty much just grew up in Oklahoma, just doing country stuff.

So how did you and resume?

We met, um, at the gym, if he were to be here and tell you the story, it'd be a little

different.

But he's on the treadmill and he's doing his cardio and he's, and I just saw him and

I had recently saw him in a picture and this was before shots.

So, so before shots, it was ever a thing.

He and I were already hanging out and so he, uh, he's in a friend's picture from

gay pride.

I'm like, oh, you know, my friend's so-and-so and he's like, who?

And so I pull out the picture and he's like, oh, that's not my friend.

And it's so from that moment forward, I was always trying to chat with him because for

me, it's like the angrier looking you are, the more of a challenge I think you're going

to be and the more I'm into it.

And so, Reza was just very angry looking and I just saw it as a challenge and so I just

went for it.

So, did you feel any chemistry or what was it that attracted you to?

Oh, dude.

I always feel chemistry with everyone, so with Reza, the thing that attracted to me besides

his angry demeanor was, I don't know, like his style, his sense of humor.

He was witty.

We had a lot of similar, not similar, we had a lot of friends in common and the next thing

I knew was like, we had our first date and we went to, um, he took me to my first vegan

restaurant.

Oh.

And he was vegan.

He used to be vegan.

Okay.

And then, um, and then we went and saw a screen, one of the screen movies and it was,

it was great.

It was like, it was just very nice.

That was your first date?

Now, the screen was our second date, but the first date was a vegan restaurant and so

really, yeah.

Is he still vegan?

No.

He's mostly vegan because I'm vegan, but he'll easily eat some chicken.

Okay.

Yeah.

Oh, good, good.

That's great.

And you guys, so you guys have been together how long?

15 years?

Oh, 16.

16 years.

Okay.

16 years.

Yeah.

17

We didn't have any people because we, we started hanging out before, Shaw's was even started,

And so here we are today, so obviously I made a good decision and we've been married for

about 10 and a half years now. Nice. We've been through a lot. We've had several properties

together. We've got five pets together. We have a whole life. Oh, I also saw a clip of you guys

talking about kids. Another thing we have in common, my wife and I, we don't have any kids

together. She's got four wonderful kids and, you know, I love being of stepdad. But I remember

you saying like, I don't think I can handle dealing with a kid all day long.

Which is true. And thank God the subredlining to the pandemic was we got to spend a lot of

quality time together. Yeah. And it was at that moment that I realized, well, we had a kid

like give all of our attention beyond this kid. Yeah. And I love our quality time together.

I love our quiet time together. And I just think we'd be living a different life if the kid was

somewhere in the mix. Yeah. Yeah. Like I totally would have a kid today. But I just don't think

it'd be hard for me to work the kid into my life because we have a busy life. Yeah. No, I agree.

Do you and Reza spend a lot of time together? Are you guys always the part working?

We spent a lot of time together, but he also goes out a ton of lot for different

promotional things like he used to us in New York for Andy. So we do have some downtime

away from one another, which is great. Yeah. At the same time, I'm like, man, what am I going to do now?

Reza's like, Reza's normally my go-to. Yeah. It's like in the evenings we enjoy watching those

those dating shows on Netflix because Reza is a huge fanatic. Yeah. And I just make fun of

these people. It's like, how do you fall in love after knowing them for two days? Like

yeah. Yeah. And there's there's some about reality TV that if you understand it, you understand it.

I don't say I don't because I also come from the scripted world where I know how a character

is supposed to react and move. Yeah. But it's hard to watch a reality show and be like,

this doesn't make sense because in my world, I know how people are supposed to be. And this

world is like, wow, just long time. Yeah. It's unpredictable. But you know, our producers,

I agree with you 100%. But our producers really know how to create magic. I don't know

things sometimes. I'm really like surprised. And sometimes I see, you know,

then doing some like you totally missed the ball, guys. It was such a good scene and you didn't

show it. But you know, it's a hard job, as you know, editing. It takes a long time

to edit. I edit videos for my dirt bike, you know, adventures and stuff like that. So that's

where I get the experience of dealing with, you know, big files taken forever to just create one

short clip. And so I wouldn't want that job. I will say it's a great and rewarding job because

like I'll get to go to the Golden Globes or some other prestigious award ceremony. I get to see

episodes that people want to see and they want to know what's going to happen. And I already know

what's going to happen. And I'm like the first person who gets to see it before the director.

Yeah. And it's just like, wow, like the the opportunities I get to have because of my real

job, it's it's amazing. That's actually sounds really cool. It's like I worked on June the TV

series. I was like, I already knew everything that was going to happen. And you're seeing these

big billboards and you're reading all these posts. And it's like, I think I have a theory that

this is going to happen. And this is going to happen. And I'm like, nope, nope, nope. And I find that

so fascinating and very, it just puts a big smile on my face because I get to create stuff that

people, a lot of people are going to watch.

Hey, it's honey German. You already know me.

Soy Dominicana, positiva, proud, y bien conectada. And any chance I get, I'm back for

mi gente. Cause home is where the mango is. Staying conectada is more than bars on a phone.

Planned Parenthood Health Centers save lives. But the Trump administration and its backers in

Congress are blocking patients from using Medicaid at Planned Parenthood Health Centers for one simple

reason. They want to shut Planned Parenthood down. Yet across the country, Planned Parenthood Health

Centers are still there, opening their doors to care for their communities. That's because Planned

Parenthood believes controlling your own body is the most basic freedom and they'll never stop

fighting for it. One in four people in the U.S. have been to a Planned Parenthood Health Center

for high quality health care. Like birth control, cancer screenings, STI testing and treatment,

abortion and more. Planned Parenthood is still the country's largest sex educator and a trusted

source of unbiased sexual and reproductive health information from millions of people. Planned

Parenthood will never stop working to get people the information they need and they will never stop

fighting so that every person is free to make their own decisions about their bodies and futures.

How do you guys handle being on a reality TV together? Like I'm sure Scott had

its ups and downs and I think you just touched on it a little bit, the negative feedback from

social media people. Overall, how do you guys handle your reality TV relationship?

Um, what happens on TV stays on TV and one thing that Ros and I really learned was

to avoid conflict we need to do daily check-ins. So we at the end of every day we're like

how is your day? Is there anything I can help you with? Do you have any issues or thoughts you

want to talk about? Yeah. And our relationship has gone like through the roof, like the next level

because of these check-ins. Like it's so small and minor but it's like a way to deflate or let the

hot air out of the balloon before it explodes. Yeah. And so you kind of get ahead of the problem and

and so it's been very beneficial. So there's been

numerable times where Tamara comes home from filming and she's stressed out or something happened

and you know there was a fight and I typically you know absorbed all that energy and sometimes

she takes it out on me. Does that happen to you? Oh, dude, all the time. Like especially before we

started doing the check-ins, like it would always be, he'd bring his work home. Yeah. And then

I always pick up on that energy and I always feel like the energy is directed towards me even though

it's not supposed to be. Yeah. And I'm just like, whoa, what was that? Do I need to break up with you?

Do we need to divorce? Yeah. Like early on after we got married, the divorce card was thrown

around a lot. It wasn't until we learned how to communicate and learn to leave work at the door

that we finally learned how to like talk to one another and handle all these small issues that

nothing to do with the other. Yeah. No, and I like that concept of just just checking in at the

end of the day every day. It's up there with saying, you know, I love you on a daily basis whether,

you know, they know it or not. And whether you're mad or not, you just say it because it's true,

right? Now talking about it, it's one thing to talk about, it's another thing to really show your

love, right? I understand Reza is the one that shows a lot more affection than you do.

And you're like my wife or like don't chew next to me, don't breathe next to me, don't touch me.

Like I, Reza knows I love him. I show my acts of love in a different form. Yeah.

He just loves to be on top of me 24-7. And I love him, but it's like I'd like to do acts of

generosity and not like, I don't know what's it called, smothering, touching,

ground. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So that's your love language showing acts of kindness. Yeah.

Like I love tabooly. I love making tabooly. Oh, Reza, you want your hungry? Here's a bowl tabooly.

Let me, let me come to you. I'm kind of like a cat, like I'll come to you. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm the dog.

I don't like to pair him to a dog, but yeah, he's kind of like a dog like, pick a cute dog. Yeah.

A little shitsu or something that just humps your leg all the time. He said a cute dog.

No, no, I probably had to compare him to our little Chihuahua mix. There you go.

So I understand that there was a break with Shaza Sunset. And my wife had her break as well.

And it took a year for me to talk her off the ledge. How was it with Reza? I mean,

and you guys for for he and I was great because we got to reconnect as real people and not TV

personas. Yeah. But then when he would get around his former castmates, it's like, so we got to

come up with another show idea. What are we going to do? Yeah. And cool. Great.

Can we just have a normal life? Yeah. Like I honestly, like I enjoyed the the downtime. I enjoyed

just being like real because Reza, I taught him how to how to garden, how to make a plant from

another plant. It's and so we really enjoyed becoming like those the gay Betty, Betty Crocker

home buddy people like that. Yeah. Yeah. And he became more chill and even happier and I

and I loved it. So seeing him the way that he reacted once, he was told it was not being brought back.

It was just it was sat in a way because he was always so depressed and he was like, oh man,

like, what am I going to do? I am Shaw's, Shaw's is me. Yeah. But he definitely grew up in our

relationship and it was more present, which was really, really good. Yeah. It sounds again like

another thing we have in common, we are the solid foundation in this relationship where we're

steady and they can be crazy. They can be charismatic and they're great on TV. But when they come

home, we got to just, you know, bring them down and have them alive. You don't have to be on all

the time. And I think that's what really helps our relationship grow, you know, because I'm not

like you, I think I'm not about being famous or being on TV, you're especially on a housewife

show. You know, I'm not a housewife. I know Eddie, you're pulling my legs. I'm not going to be

pulling some girls hair and acting like a crazy woman. It's just not my thing. So another thing

we have in common, I think I touched on it earlier was we both got married during our reality

TV experience. And I think if I remember correctly, you showed a little bit about that. Maybe

everything leading up to the wedding except the wedding. No, we showed the wedding. Oh, you did.

On Shaws, we showed the wedding. I was surprised. It was that a rush on Palm Springs. And it's like,

do I want to go and film Palm Springs? Is that particular weekend? It was my, was a premiere

party or one of the shows I was working on. At the time I was working on American Horror Story.

And I was just like, oh, man, I want to go to my premiere party because I worked on the first

episode. So do I do that or do I go to Palm Springs? And so Resid talked me into going to Palm

Springs, showed up to this restaurant. Next thing I know, he's standing up in the middle of

the dinner. And one of our friends married us. I forget the words. She was our priestess.

Yeah. And so we got married on TV. And that was it. And which was great because I didn't have to

have the stress of planning the wedding on my let alone having a room full of people. It's like,

I don't mind public speaking and being a bunch of people. But if I can avoid it, I will.

So it was just a small group of people. It was very intimate and it was perfect. Like I would not

go back and change anything. Yeah. Yeah. That's great. By the way, American Horror Stories were one

of my favorite and my wife's favorite shows. We watched them from the beginning. Every season was

awesome. Awesome. Thank you. I work on the very day one episode one season one. That was my very

first job in the industry. Oh, they were so cool. I really enjoyed watching it. It was so off

the beat. That just so cool. It was such a great, great fun time. Yeah. So now there's a new show

called The Valley. And you guys are filming that now, right? How many seasons are you in?

We are airing season one right now. How different is that or similar to the Shaws?

It's literally night and day. It's like people actually, most people actually get along.

That is different. And it's like I have a connection with each individual person,

which is different because on Shaws, it's like, even though I was friendly with them,

it always felt like everyone is just trying to, like,

I hope God throw you under the bus. It just like, what dirty secret of yours can I air and like

stir, stir the pot a little bit? Like with this group of people, we generally like one another.

Okay. And there's there's always going to be the ups and downs. And it's like it's not toxic like

Shaws was by the end. Yeah. Shaws was a great opportunity. But this time around, I feel like

more involved and everyone just seems to be more pleasant. But then again, it's still early,

so that could change. Yeah. I mean, I always thought that housewives can't be anything different.

It has to have some sort of drama and storyline and just something to get the viewers

interested in watching. And I think the common denominator is there's got to be drama.

And whatever that drama is, right? So do you think the new show is going to be able to handle

no drama? And last, because through like, yeah, that's the, that's a downside to reality.

TV is like, at some point, there has to be real drama for there to be any intrigue and

for viewers to want to tune in. Yeah. I mean, luckily enough, there was some actual real drama

this season. Oh, okay. Yeah, which did not involve me, but obviously it involved Reza.

But it was legitimate things that need to be said and done. And you know, Reza handled it.

Oh, okay. Have you ever felt like you need to step in and help Reza at any time?

More so this see on this series than I did during Shaws.

So this season, like, if someone like was talking poorly to Reza, someone would cuss Reza out,

I'd be like, don't you stay that to my husband? I was like, I was always the person.

He's like in there trying to like, protect him, even though he didn't need it. Yeah.

And, but then like afterwards, we'd come home or cameras would break and he would give me a pat

on the back like, Oh, I love you. Thank you for doing that. Because sometimes it's difficult to

be in the middle or see a partner be in the heat of a very toxic moment. Yeah.

And to find a moment to interject, just to like make sure that they know that you have their back.

And, but I really found like I somewhat found my voice this season and I was able to be that

person in support for Reza. Yeah. Good. So how would you describe the show for viewers that I've

not seen it? And, you know, what do you think is going to capture the audience in this new show

called the Valley Persian style? I mean, it's got a great title. It's an amazing title. It's

literally, it's like such a great intro to Persian culture and the the drama that that's in

their lives. Yeah. Because they're funny, they're dramatic. They they love to host. They have

like huge spreads. It's, it's just a fun, it truly is a fun show. Mine is the drama. Like,

you see the love that everyone has for one another. Yeah. How everyone stands up for one another.

And it's, it's just a great fun show. It's a great group of friends. And if you want to like see

what Reza and I have been up to, definitely watch it. And then you'll get to see MJ and GG

three of the OGs like back together. Yeah. What, what adulthood looks like now? Because the last time

people saw any of us, it was we were much younger. Yeah. Yeah. And we've grown a pandemic happened.

We still have kids. And so we we had a lot of growing up to them. Yeah. Yeah. Now I understand

there's a little drama between GG's X showing up at your wedding. It was my birthday. It was my

birthday. It was your birthday. Yeah. Tell me about that. This seems like every birthday party that I

have that I invite GG to. She always manages to make it about herself. Really annoying. Because

she is my writer. I love her death. She's probably my closest friend. Oh, cool. So I'm very

forgiving when it comes to her. Yeah. But no, she bites her, her ex-husband doesn't tell me about it.

And then later on, she asked me to kick him out of the house and tell him to go home. And it's like,

girl, you ruined my birthday. Now you got to put me in an awkward position and tell him to leave.

That's pretty good drama. Yeah. It was like I will always have GG's back. Dennis, he's a great

nice guy one on one. But he definitely is a little thirsty and he wanted to be there to ride GG's

coattails. And yeah, so all that happened. And it was just it was a lot. It was very awkward.

Yeah. Yeah. Every show has one. Don't they? They're always one has one that has to be like, I'm a star.

I'd hate to say it, but that's GG. She will, if nobody is engaging with her, she will throw

her down and leave and make a scene about her. It's like we had a there was a dinner early on

in the season at a mere Natasha's house. And they had a huge Persian dinner spread and everybody

was talking about their couples problems. And GG couldn't relate because she's divorced twice.

Oh my gosh. And she's not in a relationship. And so she's like, you know, I don't connect with

any of this. I got to go and she leaves. She's very dramatic and she leaves. And it's like, okay,

now what do we do? Do we talk about her or talk about something else? She sounds perfect for

reality TV. Very messy. Very messy. She's very messy, but I love her to do. She truly is

such a great person. She's always had my back. And I love her for it. That's funny. Yeah.

So I think I have met her once at an event. And I loved her energy and her personality. She's

super cute. You know, she's very cute. And if you ever need a hookup on weed, she's got you.

Well, I got my own supply, actually. Well, she allegedly, she spends for a grand amount on it.

So oh my gosh. You have a backup. Wait, doesn't, didn't she launch a cannabis company?

Oh, she did. She did. And we went to her launch party. And it was great.

Did she still have a company? I think so. Oh, good. Okay. I know that they really

specialized in CBD oil. And it's an amazing CBD oil. I was using it before. I got the stem

cells that I mentioned earlier. Yeah. And it was it's great. Yeah. I thought she was in the

medical marijuana side. I don't know. She was in the hemp side. She's in the foes side. But then

now she's focused on sex toys. Whoa, left turn there.

Don't you need any of those toys? Let me know and I'll put it on.

Oh, I can't imagine a dildo showing up in my house.

I'd be like, babe, did you order this? Because I didn't. I don't need one.

Magical rewind is brought to you by T-Mobile. Last night, I treated myself to the

Hey, I'm Freddie Prince Jr. and I talk a lot about twists, turns, and the unexpected moments

Freedom and they'll never stop fighting for it. One in four people in the U.S. have been to

a Planned Parenthood Health Center for High Quality Healthcare. Like birth control, cancer screenings,

STI testing and treatment, abortion, and more. Planned Parenthood is still the country's

from millions of people. Planned Parenthood will never stop working to get people the information

they need. And they will never stop fighting so that every person is free to make their own

I understand you and Reza have launched your own brand of snacks. They're called the pantry list.

Yeah, it's called the pantry list. We literally spent sure I actually have a box here. We

are a good friend. Kristen Chen was. She hit me up so I can you send me some? So I actually have a

box of her right here. What is it? It's a... So this is... Okay, so this is me. Okay. And this is Reza.

So Reza thinks he looks like Fred from I Love Lucy. So what kind of? This is what happens when

you don't get it get involved in the business. It's like I built this business with our money.

They Persian tromics company. You're able to build your own mix with like the different

flavored Persian nuts, dried fruits. Because anytime you go over to a Persian's house, they always

have a bowl of nuts out of some sort or dried fruit. And that's where the idea came from.

Because as an American, I love to snack on your comics. Yeah. And then it's like you go to your

office and all the good tromics is gone except for that weird nasty stuff at the bottom that nobody

ever eats. Yeah. So I was like, why why not make a Persian version? And that Persian version.

I thought that you want to eat instead of like wasting your money on all that stuff that you're

going to throw away. Yeah. And so it took two years to find our vendors. And we launched it

early January. And we've been doing great. So we get a lot of sales every day. It's just been

phenomenal. So who does the distribution? We do. You do. Okay. Yeah, we do. So we rent a small

kitchen and we do all the packing there. We have a small group of employees who helps us pack

everything, weigh everything out. And it's it's great. It's been it's been eye opening in a way

because because like you're like, wow, people, they really build odd blends. And it's like

I would never put these two things together. And they're great. It's it's just fun. And a lot of

it's a genius idea, by the way, because I'd love to, you know, I love mixed nuts, but there's some

that I like more than others. And I tend to justify that that there's nuts in that that I don't

really like because I wouldn't eat them. Otherwise, I would just stick to cashews or, you know,

walnuts or, you know, one nut. But it's better for me to just grab a handful and not really,

I mean, unless there's a nut that I absolutely am allergic to or just don't like the flavor,

which I don't I've never come across one. But it's it's easier for me to just pick the nut I want

or the variety. I want how many different varieties do you have? Oh, dude, we have 30 something

options and we're growing. But like there's other there's new items we haven't put on to our list

yet. So you can either build your own or have a specialty blend, which are things that we've come

up with where you can just like, oh, I don't know what I want. But you just go to our specialty

blends and you select one of those. Okay. Like we have like Kristen, she she bought our midnight crunch

and our silk road did lugs. So midnight crunch, imagine like a deconstructed snickers. It's

it's got raw walnut dates, vegan chocolate chips and peanut butter pulled pretzels. Wow.

That sounds really good. And it's healthy. It's so healthy. Absolutely. Yeah. Like everything

that we have is like, it's very healthy. Minus the the nougat other than that, everything is like

vegan, healthy, uh, and organic. I love it. Do you have a website? Yeah, the pantry list official.com.

If you haven't checked it out, please check it out. Can you say that again a little bit slower?

Because I didn't even catch it. The pantry list official.com pantry list official.com. Okay.

Yeah. Awesome. That's our website. So feel free to check it out. Awesome. Awesome. Well, I will

I will make sure to announce that when I post these videos that, you know, you got to try,

you got to try the nuts. And trust me, I know how hard it is to build a business. So I'm happy

to help. Anyway, I can. Oh, please. Oh, I'll hit you up later there. If you've never tried to

surely lemon cashew. Oh, that sounds so good. It's going to block your socks off. Like I have

all sent you some bits. How do you make it? I can just ask the vendor. Oh, it sounds amazing.

I can't wait to try that. Well, Adam, thank you so much for taking the time. I know you're busy.

I just wanted to get a chance to get on here, get to know you and our hopefully our audience has

questions and they can reach out to you and even buy some product. Get to know yourself. Please do.

It's it's an amazing product. I'm not just saying that because it's my business, but it's it's

truly an amazing product. That's awesome. And it's healthy. That's what I really love about it.

Now if you were talking about some alcohol brand, I wouldn't even be mentioned right now. Everybody's

got a vodka. Everybody's got a tequila. I love the health aspect of it. Good for you. Thank you.

Again, do you have any questions for me? Actually, do you have one question for you, Eddie?

When your wife has an issue with someone, do you have to have an issue with that person too?

You know, that's a great question because it's happened multiple times. More specifically,

I have, I still am friends with David Bador who was married to Shannon.

Bador. And when they were married, we used to hang out all the time. We had a lot in common,

both home businesses, part of an entrepreneur organization. We had we understood the code.

We did Spartans together. We became friends. And then when they broke up, he moved on with his

life. And of course, Shannon decided to, you know, manipulate my wife to say stuff, bad stuff about

him. And he reached out to me as like, I can't be friends with you anymore. I'm like, what?

But I mean, we can be friends. And, you know, I took it, I understood at the same time, I'm like,

okay, this is both, you know, I don't like this. And I'm not going to jump on this bandwagon

because everything I know about David, I like. He's a cool guy. And, you know, I don't know much

about Shannon except what I've seen on the show and the few times I've spent with there. But

I, if I was to choose who I'm going to be friends with, it would obviously be David because I have

a lot more in common with him. So I had to talk with my wife about it. And she says, okay, you're

right. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said those things. And I said, thank you. And I talked to

David about it. And he's like, okay, we can be friends again.

Nice. Yeah. I've been in that boat. Who did you have to hate?

BG. I had. Yeah. She's your right and die. How do you?

I know. It was so hard. She, so during Shah's,

her and Reza had an altercation and she was trying to get physical with them. And I got the

middle of it. She mulled my neck. I got, I had a claw marks down my neck. And I was holding flowers.

I was holding roses. And I was protecting the roses. And I was like, not the roses. And

she just clawed my neck and Reza was like, no, we're done with her. We can't talk to her.

Wow. So it was really hard. It was really. Yeah. That would be hard for me too.

Honestly, but thank God we've never gotten physical on our show.

You can say anything to me. Call me any name you want. It doesn't bother me. But you lay a

finger on me. A different person's going to come out and it's going to protect me. And it's

going to protect my wife. So it's, it's better that I don't get involved.

Which is hard, which is another reason why I like to stay in the shadows and not really engage too

much because I just have to be a squeaky thing. Yeah, I imagine Reza can handle his own. I know my

wife certainly can. And I witnessed her go, you know, head to head with another housewife,

just another housewife, but another house husband who wants to be a housewife. And she put

some in his place. So it's just not a show for guys. It just isn't.

Why is there not a house husband show like with all the house husbands of the housewives?

I don't know. I want to know the drama that goes on between them like the men.

Well, you know, generally speaking, most men avoid drama. I mean, it's one of our, at least one

of my top priorities. If there's drama, I try to avoid it or, or snuff it out, or I just don't

need any unnecessary drama in my life. There's enough challenges to deal with. So knowing that,

I think that's why I always say if I had a house husband show of my own, I would be very boring.

It'd be like watching paint dry. I am not a drama queen. And it would be boring. I mean, now put

me in a, you know, F1 TV show driving a race car. I'm all about that. And I can probably create

some drama out of that. But I'll get to drive an F1 vehicle. Oh, dude, you would love. There's a guy

in our show named Greg. That's all he ever does in his free time. He drives out the Palm Springs,

and he does race cars at Thermal, right? There's a track called Thermal out there. It's such a

cool track, such a cool place. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I would love to do something like that.

But right now in my life, I'm all about two wheels motorcycles of any kind off road, on road,

bicycles, anything with two wheels. I love. Cool. That was a great question. Thank you so much

again, Adam. It's been a pleasure having you. And guess what? You are first non-house husband guest.

So it'll be interesting to hear feedback from our listeners. And, you know, please give it

to me straight. If you like that, if you have anything good, bad, ugly to say about Adam,

just give it to us. We can handle it right, Adam. Exactly. Thanks again for taking the time.

It's very, very nice to meet you. You used to all that day. Thank you.
