Happy Friday, Best Friends!

Today on The Morning Brew with Chris Bennett & Best Friends, we're getting to know our Country Climb Star of the Week, Kylie Hill!

Originally from Spokane, Washington and now living in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, Kylie shares how Taylor Swift inspired her to pick up a guitar at 12 years old, the first song she secretly wrote about a boy she had a crush on, her first trip to Nashville, and how songwriting lets her bring out a bolder, flirtier side of herself.

Plus, Kylie tells us the fun real-life story behind her brand-new single, “I Know You Want To Too,” which is OUT TODAY! Make sure you follow Kylie Hill on social media and check out her new song wherever you stream music.

A huge thank you to Shawn Burke, Austin Burke and the entire team at the Playlisted Podcast for sending Kylie our way as this week's Country Climb Star of the Week!

Relationship Advice Thursday is here, Best Friends — and today we brought in some backup!

Then comedian Dwayne Perkins, headliner of our August 22nd comedy show at the Show Low Elks Lodge, joins the Morning Brew! We get to know Dwayne with some rapid-fire questions before putting his relationship-advice skills to the test. Is a girlfriend ruining Guys' Night by popping in to check on her boyfriend and his friends — or should the guys just appreciate the snacks?

Plus, we find out who won the $1 billion Powerball jackpot, celebrate International Left-Handers Day with some trivia, and give away VIP tickets to the comedy show!

Court is officially in session, best friends!

On today’s Morning Brew with Chris Bennett and Best Friends, we’ve got TWO ridiculous Am I the Jerk Court cases.

First, a wedding guest is told to arrive two hours early — only to discover the groom lied about the start time so he could get some FREE manual labor!

Then things get even crazier when Paul from Beaumont puts on his redneck judge’s wig to rule on a husband who uses the kids’ craft scissors to open raw chicken, leaves the baby gate open with the oven on, and rushes back to the bedroom because he doesn’t want to crash… his FLIGHT SIMULATOR.

Plus, Nicole plays some Baseball Fans Day trivia to win VIP comedy tickets compliments of ComfortFit Dentures, and we ask Paul the important question: What would he buy first if he won a BILLION dollars?

Grab your coffee and come laugh with your best friends!
