- 0:03SPEAKER_00: And Stacy, I wanted to wish you a happy birthday in the sense of Let's Wine with Brendan Stacy has been going on for an entire year.
- 0:10SPEAKER_01: Happy one year birthday to you as well.
- 0:12SPEAKER_01: Couldn't do it without you.
- 0:13SPEAKER_01: Wouldn't have done it without you.
- 0:15SPEAKER_01: This came as um us just sitting at the table, enjoying our interesting conversations and thinking somebody else needs to hear this, right?
- 0:21SPEAKER_01: So yeah, we have uh managed to somehow pull this off for a year.
- 0:26SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 0:26SPEAKER_00: And this is where you can tell the difference in us.
- 0:28SPEAKER_00: You want to just say it's our birthday month, and I'm sitting here like, well, let's say our first Amazon order was placed August 15th, and our promo came out August 26th.
- 0:37SPEAKER_00: We start talking about it really in late July, but okay, August.
- 0:40SPEAKER_00: We'll just say August.
- 0:41SPEAKER_01: August is our one-year anniversary birthday.
- 0:44SPEAKER_01: It is.
- 0:45SPEAKER_01: Um, we birthed this from nothing.
- 0:47SPEAKER_01: I remember sitting and watching YouTube videos, how to get through the first episode.
- 0:52SPEAKER_01: Oh, going back and listening to us in the beginning, I think we were shell-shocked.
- 0:57SPEAKER_01: I think we knew what we wanted to say and we thought, oh, we're gonna be ourselves and we're gonna be that, but we were still kind of holding back.
- 1:02SPEAKER_01: You could tell we were scared of what this was gonna turn out as, or if we ever even posted anything for anybody here through family and friends and critiques, positive feedback, we here we are today.
- 1:14SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 1:14SPEAKER_00: You remember the first microphones we bought?
- 1:16SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that were falling over.
- 1:18SPEAKER_00: It was like, nope, and I still hate my voice after all this time, but I've gotten used to it.
- 1:21SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:22SPEAKER_00: So when I'm editing, I'm I've gotten used to it.
- 1:24SPEAKER_00: Yes, I can handle that.
- 1:25SPEAKER_01: You have fans.
- 1:26SPEAKER_01: I'm just saying, people tell me all the time, can't wait to hear Brenda again.
- 1:29SPEAKER_01: Love Brenda, love her.
- 1:31SPEAKER_01: Bullshit.
- 1:32SPEAKER_01: And I've even had comments on how you keep me in line.
- 1:35SPEAKER_01: I do.
- 1:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you somehow managed to wrangle me a little bit and keep me focused or in line or teach me the proper way to word something when I just feel like it's Stacy isms and you correct me in according to the English language.
- 1:51SPEAKER_01: I'm sorry, I didn't realize I did that.
- 1:52SPEAKER_01: Well, no, I mean it's it's apparently people listen think, oh, Brenda's got her.
- 1:57SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:57SPEAKER_01: You keep me in line.
- 1:58SPEAKER_01: So I appreciate that.
- 1:59SPEAKER_01: I guess thank you for being a bitch to me.
- 2:02SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 2:03SPEAKER_00: I pulled numbers um ready a couple days ago.
- 2:06SPEAKER_00: It was three days ago.
- 2:07SPEAKER_01: Because I have no idea.
- 2:07SPEAKER_00: As of three days ago, anyway, August 22nd, 2026, we were up to 76 episodes of Let's Wine with Brendan Stacy.
- 2:15SPEAKER_00: All right, 76.
- 2:17SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:17SPEAKER_00: Okay, and we are in 58 countries and 263 cities.
- 2:22SPEAKER_00: That is my number.
- 2:23SPEAKER_00: That is outstanding.
- 2:25SPEAKER_00: It's amazing.
- 2:26SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 2:27SPEAKER_01: I know uh the last time I looked, uh, my Singapore people were still involved and still listening.
- 2:33SPEAKER_01: So I'm I'm excited for that.
- 2:35SPEAKER_01: I don't know what number or percentage I gives us.
- 2:38SPEAKER_01: Well, I pulled our top three.
- 2:39SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:40SPEAKER_00: I just did it that way.
- 2:40SPEAKER_00: Of course, the US is number one, and then it has Japan as number two.
- 2:44SPEAKER_00: How about that?
- 2:45SPEAKER_00: We have fans in Japan.
- 2:46SPEAKER_00: Singapore's number three, so it's still on the list.
- 2:48SPEAKER_00: They're still there.
- 2:51SPEAKER_00: I did our top three cities too.
- 2:52SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 2:53SPEAKER_00: It's Temple, Georgia, Atlanta, Georgia, Buford, Georgia.
- 2:57SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:58SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 2:58SPEAKER_00: It's all Georgia.
- 2:59SPEAKER_01: Those are people where everybody's closest to us in vicinity-wise.
- 3:03SPEAKER_01: A lot of friends and family live in those areas, and we appreciate the support of our friends and family.
- 3:08SPEAKER_01: The way that they've been here for us has been amazing.
- 3:10SPEAKER_01: It's the strangers that baffle me the most.
- 3:13SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 3:14SPEAKER_01: The cities, US cities I've never even heard of.
- 3:16SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 3:17SPEAKER_01: Me either.
- 3:17SPEAKER_01: And I'm like, who do we know in Idaho?
- 3:20SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 3:21SPEAKER_01: You know, it just it's so weird.
- 3:22SPEAKER_01: So, um but it's fun, and we will do this as long as hopefully p other people are having fun listening.
- 3:28SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 3:28SPEAKER_00: I don't know if you care about these numbers, but they're on there, and it's ones that I really don't look at.
- 3:32SPEAKER_00: You know how we're just kind of do our thing and don't pay attention.
- 3:35SPEAKER_00: 23% of these people that are listening use Spotify.
- 3:38SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 3:38SPEAKER_00: That's our number one.
- 3:40SPEAKER_00: But there's a lot.
- 3:41SPEAKER_00: I mean, there's a lot of different things that we're on.
- 3:42SPEAKER_00: It's not just iHeartRadio and Spotify and YouTube.
- 3:45SPEAKER_00: I mean, there's, I couldn't even tell you, a pod bean.
- 3:47SPEAKER_00: There's like a list of 25 things, and I don't even know what they all are.
- 3:50SPEAKER_01: Where people can listen to.
- 3:51SPEAKER_00: Where they can listen to us.
- 3:52SPEAKER_00: Yes, and I don't I don't know.
- 3:53SPEAKER_00: Christina said she listens, there's an actual podcast app on her phone.
- 3:57SPEAKER_00: So I I don't even know what that's linked to.
- 3:59SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I don't know.
- 4:00SPEAKER_00: We don't know what we're doing.
- 4:01SPEAKER_00: We just hit the button record.
- 4:02SPEAKER_00: We just hit record, stop it and just hope for the best.
- 4:05SPEAKER_00: And 43% of people are listening on their Apple iPhones.
- 4:08SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 4:09SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 4:10SPEAKER_00: We appreciate that.
- 4:11SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 4:11SPEAKER_00: And I feel like when I'm here, I always fired up on the computer or the TV.
- 4:15SPEAKER_00: Usually when I'm doing my makeup in the morning because the TV's right there, I have the remote and I listen to us on the television.
- 4:19SPEAKER_00: And I notice different just from what people say.
- 4:22SPEAKER_00: I guess different appliances, is that the word I'm looking for?
- 4:25SPEAKER_00: Appliances sound different.
- 4:26SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 4:26SPEAKER_00: Like if there's background noise or things, it might show up on one and not on the other.
- 4:30SPEAKER_01: I agree with that.
- 4:31SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 4:31SPEAKER_01: Because people have mentioned noises that they've heard or things that they've heard in the background.
- 4:35SPEAKER_01: And I'm listening again, listening for that, I'm like, I don't hear it in my car.
- 4:40SPEAKER_00: Well, Tina heard the thunder.
- 4:41SPEAKER_00: We've had two storms going on through different episodes.
- 4:44SPEAKER_01: Anyway, we do love the feedback, good or bad.
- 4:46SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 4:47SPEAKER_01: You know, if you want to say fuck you, because we said something, we want to know that too.
- 4:51SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 4:51SPEAKER_01: It's fine.
- 4:52SPEAKER_01: I don't I wouldn't say we're trying not to, but we don't get butthurt.
- 4:56SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 4:56SPEAKER_00: We're trying to be professional, are we?
- 4:58SPEAKER_00: But I'm just kidding.
- 4:59SPEAKER_00: I'm loose-lipped.
- 5:00SPEAKER_00: I'm more loose-lipped than you are.
- 5:01SPEAKER_00: If I had my way, it'd be fuck you, fuck this, fuckity fuck, fuck, fucker.
- 5:04SPEAKER_00: Fuckeries.
- 5:05SPEAKER_00: Fuckery, fuckery doodle.
- 5:07SPEAKER_00: Well, we do have the big podcast analytics number, which is everything across the board.
- 5:12SPEAKER_00: And this does not include the Brenda's horror movie reviews.
- 5:15SPEAKER_00: That's a completely different thing.
- 5:16SPEAKER_00: Even though it's under BS Studios, we're keeping that separate.
- 5:18SPEAKER_00: This is just let's wine with Brenda and Stacy.
- 5:21SPEAKER_00: Done the drum roll.
- 5:22SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 5:23SPEAKER_00: Tell her said not to pat on the table, but here I am.
- 5:25SPEAKER_00: You're doing it.
- 5:26SPEAKER_00: Boom.
- 5:26SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 5:27SPEAKER_00: 79,899.
- 5:30SPEAKER_00: How about that?
- 5:31SPEAKER_00: I've been telling people we're in the 20,000.
- 5:33SPEAKER_00: I think I even posted 50, didn't I?
- 5:35SPEAKER_00: Maybe not.
- 5:35SPEAKER_00: Maybe not.
- 5:36SPEAKER_01: No, the last thing you put was in the 20,000.
- 5:38SPEAKER_00: Well, I haven't been adding like Facebook or anything.
- 5:40SPEAKER_00: And you know, our Buzz Sprout, which is what we use, it doesn't count YouTube or anything.
- 5:44SPEAKER_00: We have to go off of look at those analytics separate.
- 5:47SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 5:47SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 5:48SPEAKER_00: Whereas Buzz Sprout's the easy one.
- 5:49SPEAKER_00: That's what we use to record.
- 5:50SPEAKER_00: So it's actually easy to see those numbers and that that we never look at, like the Spotify and the Apple phone.
- 5:55SPEAKER_00: I don't care.
- 5:56SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 5:56SPEAKER_00: I don't care what people are.
- 5:57SPEAKER_00: As long as they're listening, I don't care what they're listening on.
- 5:59SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 6:00SPEAKER_00: That's amazing.
- 6:01SPEAKER_01: Almost 80,000?
- 6:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 6:03SPEAKER_01: I'm baffled.
- 6:04SPEAKER_01: I am too.
- 6:06SPEAKER_01: And I'm so proud of us.
- 6:07SPEAKER_01: I put uh I want a 1,000 listener.
- 6:09SPEAKER_01: It's by January 1st, 2026.
- 6:11SPEAKER_01: So I need to up at my auntie.
- 6:13SPEAKER_00: I need to put some more zeros on there.
- 6:15SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 6:15SPEAKER_00: Get us into the six digits.
- 6:17SPEAKER_00: I need to put I know.
- 6:18SPEAKER_00: I mean, I get that we're not in the what do they call it?
- 6:21SPEAKER_00: Oh, viral.
- 6:21SPEAKER_00: I think it has to be a million or something to be viral on one video.
- 6:24SPEAKER_00: I mean, we're we're far from that, but we're having a good time.
- 6:27SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 6:28SPEAKER_00: And as the numbers grow, as long as they continue to grow, I'm happy with that.
- 6:31SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 6:31SPEAKER_01: We'll just keep doing our thing.
- 6:33SPEAKER_01: And I'm gonna go add some zeros to my board.
- 6:36SPEAKER_01: What do you call that?
- 6:36SPEAKER_01: A wish board?
- 6:37SPEAKER_01: A vision board.
- 6:38SPEAKER_01: Vision board.
- 6:38SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna go add some zeros to my number over there on my vision board.
- 6:42SPEAKER_01: We're gonna keep this going.
- 6:43SPEAKER_01: I I literally have been telling people, yeah, we we're in the 20,000s.
- 6:47SPEAKER_01: And I was so happy with that.
- 6:49SPEAKER_00: I guess you left me to it and I wasn't doing my job.
- 6:51SPEAKER_00: I wasn't adding everything together.
- 6:53SPEAKER_00: I know I got in that analytics and I'm looking at the numbers.
- 6:56SPEAKER_01: I think, hmm, well, that's new.
- 6:58SPEAKER_01: I'm glad it was you doing it because if it was me doing it, you'd been like, mm, let me see.
- 7:02SPEAKER_01: You'd have made me prove it.
- 7:04SPEAKER_01: You didn't calculate right.
- 7:06SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 7:07SPEAKER_01: But uh apparently we calculated.
- 7:09SPEAKER_01: You calculated correctly.
- 7:10SPEAKER_01: I'm floored.
- 7:11SPEAKER_01: I'm floored.
- 7:12SPEAKER_01: I am too.
- 7:13SPEAKER_01: I think that's such a gift.
- 7:14SPEAKER_01: It's been a good year.
- 7:15SPEAKER_01: It was very humbling and very I I'm just so appreciative.
- 7:18SPEAKER_01: I am too.
- 7:18SPEAKER_01: We want to thank everybody out there for listening.
- 7:20SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:21SPEAKER_01: Because you know my mom hadn't listened that many times.
- 7:24SPEAKER_00: No, handing out business cards from what I hear.
- 7:26SPEAKER_00: She they still go out and do karaoke, our karaoke king, and they've been handing out business cards.
- 7:31SPEAKER_01: That's why Temple's up in their numbers.
- 7:33SPEAKER_01: Yeah, mom is, she definitely promotes us it everywhere and anywhere she goes.
- 7:37SPEAKER_01: I know those people listen because again, they're infatuated with Brenda.
- 7:40SPEAKER_01: And um I love to Brenda.
- 7:44SPEAKER_01: It's funny.
- 7:45SPEAKER_01: That's usually when she said, they listened and they love Brenda.
- 7:48SPEAKER_01: Like, don't we all?
- 7:50SPEAKER_01: Uh no, seriously, we all do.
- 7:52SPEAKER_01: You know, like I say, I couldn't do this without you.
- 7:54SPEAKER_01: I wouldn't want to do this without you.
- 7:56SPEAKER_00: This is your brain, baby.
- 7:57SPEAKER_00: I would have never even thought to do something like this without you saying, hey, we ought to do a podcast.
- 8:02SPEAKER_00: I'm like, nah.
- 8:03SPEAKER_00: I know this dumb.
- 8:06SPEAKER_01: We don't even know what we're talking about.
- 8:08SPEAKER_01: But we still don't.
- 8:09SPEAKER_01: We still don't.
- 8:10SPEAKER_01: But we try to come out with interesting cute topics.
- 8:12SPEAKER_01: We always, always just try to be ourselves as, you know, real as possible.
- 8:17SPEAKER_01: Life life, and we're just living it.
- 8:19SPEAKER_01: I feel like a lot of the things that we go through and a lot of things that have affected our life and still will is just lie.
- 8:26SPEAKER_01: Like, other people are going through the same things.
- 8:30SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 8:30SPEAKER_01: If they haven't yet, it's coming.
- 8:31SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 8:32SPEAKER_01: And if they already have, they understand where we are.
- 8:35SPEAKER_01: No.
- 8:36SPEAKER_01: So I really, really do appreciate.
- 8:38SPEAKER_01: I I just can't say it enough.
- 8:39SPEAKER_01: I'm baffled.
- 8:40SPEAKER_01: I'm just my life is wow.
- 8:42SPEAKER_00: They will keep doing it.
- 8:43SPEAKER_00: But we wanted to wish each other a happy birthday to our little show and thank all of you.
- 8:47SPEAKER_00: You know, give us some topics if there is something you want to hear about, or you've been through something.
- 8:51SPEAKER_00: I mean, I've noticed that we have a, you know, a couple shows that aren't as light and airy as others, and that's okay too.
- 8:56SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 8:57SPEAKER_00: But you can find us at BS Studios at myyahoo.com.

- 9:09SPEAKER_00: We used to get around.
- 9:10SPEAKER_00: We got around.
- 9:11SPEAKER_01: But now we're getting around from home.
- 9:13SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 9:14SPEAKER_01: We don't want to leave and get around anymore.
- 9:16SPEAKER_01: No, I don't want to be around.

- 9:30SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 9:30SPEAKER_01: I'm I know.
- 9:31SPEAKER_00: I want to get those six digits.
- 9:33SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 9:33SPEAKER_00: You know, look at our content on YouTube, look at it on Facebook.
- 9:36SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 9:36SPEAKER_00: Listen on Buzz Sprout or iHeartRadio or Spotify or I don't know what those things are.
- 9:41SPEAKER_00: I have to look them up.
- 9:42SPEAKER_00: By the way, you don't have to pay to listen to us.
- 9:45SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 9:46SPEAKER_00: Because they're smart.
- 9:47SPEAKER_00: Our listeners are smarter than we are.
- 9:48SPEAKER_01: They are.
- 9:49SPEAKER_01: They are.
- 9:50SPEAKER_01: And I love it.
- 9:51SPEAKER_01: I appreciate all the feedback that Tyler has given us.
- 9:53SPEAKER_01: I appreciate our guests who have been here.
- 9:55SPEAKER_01: You know, to stop and think.
- 9:57SPEAKER_01: You know, we had some very interesting people on our show.
- 9:59SPEAKER_01: And, you know, it's been a while since we've had even the interview with Scout.
- 10:03SPEAKER_01: And it was just a few days ago that somebody was asking me, Hey, how's that Scout kid doing?
- 10:07SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 10:08SPEAKER_01: He's gonna do amazing.
- 10:09SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he's doing amazing things.
- 10:10SPEAKER_01: I could give an update on him.
