Dave says he can gain ten pounds in two hours. Benny says there’s no chance. They decide to settle it the only way that makes sense: with a bet. What follows is a rollercoaster discussion about math, pizza weight, digestion, and whether any of this is remotely possible. There are rules. There is a scale. There is a lot of food. It goes from joking to concerning and back again, and Jay Shetty comes by to weigh in (sorry) towards the end. That’s basically the episode. Thanks for watching!

Welcome to Friends Keep Secrets: a first-of-its-kind show from best friends benny blanco, Lil Dicky (Dave Burd), and Dave’s wife, Kristin Batalucco. With more than 18 hidden cameras rigged throughout Dave and Kristin’s LA home, the show brings viewers inside an intimate hang with the hosts' real-life friendships and the guests that pop in.

This isn’t a formal interview show. They might cook, record a song, play a game, or simply hang out. Blending elements of a podcast, livestream, and sitcom, Friends Keep Secrets captures the magic of being in the room with the hosts and the people they cherish most.
