This week on It's Ben A Week, I try to make sense of Easter... and somehow end up ranting about Braille drive-thru menus, espresso mispronunciations, and whether Jesus just Houdini’d himself out of that tomb. I also give you an inside look at my week—from dealing with Starbucks stick-figure family vans, to accidentally draining our ranch's entire propane tank for one 10-minute swim.
Then AJ joins me for the full interview segment and we finally tell the real story of how we ended up living on a Texas ranch. Spoiler alert: it involves a Scientologist, a $17.2 million Ponzi scheme, Kim Kardashian’s lawyer, a Penske truck, and a rattlesnake assassination that got me death threats.
We also read some of your DMs, including a koi pond update, my most clueless moment (gas prices, anyone?), and whether AJ should get his own roasting segment. Plus—live shows, drama fallout, and our infamous Christmas card tradition.
🚨 Got questions for my upcoming guests?
🔮 A world-famous psychic
🧠 A trauma therapist
