We've Ben Buying a Ranch

from It's Ben a Week

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 Send them anonymously (or not) at itsbenaweek.com or DM me on Instagram @itsbenaweek.🎧 Subscribe to It’s Ben a Week New episodes every week filled with unfiltered stories, wild guests, and brutally honest laughs.
