Speaker 1: Hello, the internet. What's going on? Do you got a
Speaker 1: Dutch on you? No believe you have optimal? I think anything, Philly,
Speaker 1: something I can twist this up and whatever. Fine, let's
Speaker 1: just get to the show. Welcome to this afternoon edition
Speaker 1: of the Trend. BA is now four twenty friendly. That's
Speaker 1: why I was asking if you have something to wrap
Speaker 1: it up, because guess what, the NBA players have now
Speaker 1: been allowed to smoke weed. And we'll get to that later,
Speaker 1: because you know how we do. We we lead with
Speaker 1: something and then go take it on a completely different direction. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I'm Miles and I'm joined by Becca Ramos. Hello. How
Speaker 1: are you? I'm good? Happy Monday? Yeah? Yeah, I guess
Speaker 1: do you feel good about what? I feel good? If
Speaker 1: there was a three day work week, where do you
Speaker 1: put the three days you work? Do you want to?
Speaker 1: Are you a Monday Tuesday person? Like you want that
Speaker 1: to be part of the weekend? You want Thursday Friday?
Speaker 1: I think I would work Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Wednesday, Thursday, okay,
Speaker 1: because the vibes on Friday are like already rans it right,
Speaker 1: You're like, don't want to work like that's already been
Speaker 1: kind of set in the culture. And then Monday is
Speaker 1: like a really productive day. We know it's yet done,
Speaker 1: like like in your life, you know, and to not
Speaker 1: have to work on that day and to be able
Speaker 1: to like go to a doctor's wintment or something, it
Speaker 1: seems like that's when shits open. So like Tuesday, Wednesday,
Speaker 1: Thursday's a good working schedule. I think that, Yeah, psychologically,
Speaker 1: you may might get more things than part of me
Speaker 1: was singing. Imagine if you work Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, because
Speaker 1: on Wednesday you're like, it's Thursday tomorrow, and then it's Thursday,
Speaker 1: You're like it's the weekend. Maybe like the whole time,
Speaker 1: I just basically wouldn't work because I'm like, man, it's
Speaker 1: the weekend already. Low vibe, honway. So that's how you
Speaker 1: know you're in a young office when those are the priorities. Um,
Speaker 1: let's get to what are the top trending stories? First up,
Speaker 1: dairy Queen. So there's a dairy queen that apparently getting
Speaker 1: a lot of attention because they have like a fifteen
Speaker 1: foot tall red spoon outside the building, like the kind
Speaker 1: you'd get with a blizzard. But somebody just came through
Speaker 1: and a fucking snatched that, and the owners were a
Speaker 1: little bit confused because of like what the fuck did
Speaker 1: somebody do with a just a goof gag spoon that's
Speaker 1: fifteen feet tall. But apparently the way they describe it,
Speaker 1: they said the suspects were precise as if they had
Speaker 1: done it before. And guess what these people are raising
Speaker 1: his ship because they weren't wearing masks and they were
Speaker 1: all caught on camera but have still not been identified.
Speaker 1: And I just like how it's truly they're like what
Speaker 1: the fuck are we doing? Like who would do this?
Speaker 1: When you started this story, I was like, this is
Speaker 1: definitely college children, But now having the images, those are
Speaker 1: like full blown adults, which is crazy because this is
Speaker 1: definitely college kid level theft. Like I know kids when
Speaker 1: I went to Baylor, they would steal yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: very expensive. How do I describe this? Like banners? I
Speaker 1: guess they would like Baylor would pay because private school
Speaker 1: money and you know, like pituition is going to pay
Speaker 1: for this for these banners. He's like forty foot banners
Speaker 1: or whatever that they would hang up on the fencing
Speaker 1: near the stadium for the football and basketball games, like
Speaker 1: basically like promoting you know, the football season, basketball season,
Speaker 1: and all the frat boys would love to go like
Speaker 1: take their little clippers and snip the banners off and
Speaker 1: then hang them in their flat houses. And it became
Speaker 1: like a phenomenon where kids were stealing these signs all
Speaker 1: over campus, like the road signs and also the banners.
Speaker 1: And my ex actually almost got arrested for attempting to
Speaker 1: steal one of these and almost got expelled. So to me,
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is college connectivity, but these are people.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing. Sometimes you get a wild hair
Speaker 1: up here behind and you realize, what if we go
Speaker 1: back to those days when we just stole things willy nilly,
Speaker 1: Because yeah, I mean I remember why would come up
Speaker 1: on the weirdest shit. You know that's how old I am.
Speaker 1: We call it coming up, you know how I came
Speaker 1: up on this. And whenever I think I've said this before,
Speaker 1: like when I would go to I had a streak too,
Speaker 1: or I would try and take all of the tabletop
Speaker 1: things at a restaurant, like if you go to Denny's,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm gonna take the menu, I'm gonna take
Speaker 1: the napkin thing, I'm gonna take the sugars and then
Speaker 1: just walk out numbers. The god, that's like the thing.
Speaker 1: The water Burger numbers are what you steal, right And
Speaker 1: so again for people who are like, why would you
Speaker 1: take that, You're like for no reason aside the fact
Speaker 1: that I'm I'm in my you know, tupac mentality, because
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm taking from them because for years they've
Speaker 1: been taking from me, even though I have no gripe
Speaker 1: against Denny's. So DQ people show yourself, just bring back
Speaker 1: the spoon and now like Giant Spoon. Yeah, there's been
Speaker 1: people like, I don't know, a lot of this has
Speaker 1: gotten so much press, which is why I'm just like, really,
Speaker 1: I'm for mixed by it all, um. But yeah, they
Speaker 1: even have like shirts are like where's my spoon that
Speaker 1: they're selling? So where is City Treasure? Treasure? Bring back
Speaker 1: the spoon. Next up is Angel Reese. Shout out to
Speaker 1: Angel Reese over there from the LSU basketball team. They
Speaker 1: won the women's nc Double A championship against Iowa. And
Speaker 1: the reason this is getting a lot of a lot
Speaker 1: of coverage today is there's Caitlyn Clark, who was IOWA
Speaker 1: star player, you know, and she she was you know,
Speaker 1: she had a little bit of swagger about her, especially
Speaker 1: going into this tournament. You know, she was hitting people
Speaker 1: with the John Cena or so you thought, John Cena,
Speaker 1: you can't see me putting the fucking palm in front
Speaker 1: of the face. But from people who really know hip hop,
Speaker 1: Tony Yao did that in the So Seductive video, so
Speaker 1: we will give proper attribution on this podcast. But anyway, Kaitlyn,
Speaker 1: you know she's been she's been on her swaggy competitor vibe.
Speaker 1: But guess what, LSU. They actually came to win in
Speaker 1: the in the championship game, and Angel Reese, feeling herself,
Speaker 1: decided to hit her with the you can't see me.
Speaker 1: And then also when you know everything was sending, started
Speaker 1: pointing that ring finger, being like, oh, who's gonna get it?
Speaker 1: Who's gonna have that championship ring on? Not you? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was about to cut these nets off meat, Oh
Speaker 1: who are you? I don't even remember you. And now, predictably,
Speaker 1: because Angel Reese is a black woman and Caitlin Clark
Speaker 1: is a white woman, they are basically a lot of
Speaker 1: people have given her a lot of weird ass racist smoke,
Speaker 1: being like, oh, that's really unsportsman like, it's real bullshit.
Speaker 1: It's like, have y'all watched a single. She's just doing
Speaker 1: the same shit period, y'all. Yeah, And I'm like, whatever
Speaker 1: go on? Like everyone else came out in support of
Speaker 1: like Angel Reese, like even like Lebron James, and it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: fucking dude, do that shit. I should be known. She's
Speaker 1: quite homophobic, but also been wearing some really interesting attire
Speaker 1: on the sidelines, and many people are like you, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: what this? How did you square all this? Because she
Speaker 1: does look like a rejected Muppets character, you know what?
Speaker 1: I think I did see her on TikTok. There was
Speaker 1: this girl doing this series that was like, is it
Speaker 1: a lesbian or a professional basketball coach? And it's like
Speaker 1: all these different woman's basketball coaches wearing these saying outfits,
Speaker 1: yeah something. Yeah, they get swaggy on the sidelines for sure,
Speaker 1: but hers are just like super over the top anyway,
Speaker 1: shout out to that team. Can't be easy playing for
Speaker 1: somebody like that, but hey, you did what you had
Speaker 1: to and and and you made somebody feel bad in
Speaker 1: the process. Like at one point it was funny. I
Speaker 1: think they were like lined up for a free throw
Speaker 1: or something, and she just kind of like Angel Reese
Speaker 1: looked at her. It's like, oh, oh, you literally can't
Speaker 1: even see me right now, Okay, I see you because
Speaker 1: not like that. People did not like that. Now let's
Speaker 1: move on to another person. Chukirakira. Anyway, Shakira is out here,
Speaker 1: literally out here in the US streets. Yeah, on the
Speaker 1: streets of Miami. Okay, is South Beach. Her and her
Speaker 1: two sons have had to leave their home in Barcelona,
Speaker 1: in Catalonia. Beautiful place, beautiful um shout out Catalan independence. Um.
Speaker 1: Turns out this wasn't because she was like, oh, you
Speaker 1: know what, I like the South Beach vibes. It's because
Speaker 1: the local Spanish paper is saying that her ex husband,
Speaker 1: Gerard Pique, the footballer his father Joanne Pique, fucking evicted
Speaker 1: them from his house. He sent an email to Shakira
Speaker 1: last month giving her until the end of April to
Speaker 1: vacate the home the family once shared or pay a
Speaker 1: substantial fee. He was going to evict, he was going
Speaker 1: to evict his grandsons. He said, fuck that woman. I
Speaker 1: don't care about my own kids. I'll make a point
Speaker 1: because you know, when my son cheats on his wife.
Speaker 1: When when my son cheats on you, I'm gonna show
Speaker 1: you how bad it gets. It's not just bad enough
Speaker 1: that he's unfaithful and a liar. I will then evict
Speaker 1: you and your kids and I like, they're not my blood.
Speaker 1: What a fucking mess? Yeah, what a time? Um So yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know, we'll see what the fuck that Such
Speaker 1: a terrible look, um, but I guess it is what
Speaker 1: it is. I hope they find housing, and I hope
Speaker 1: they're safe in Miami. Yeah, you know, luckily, I believe
Speaker 1: Shakira probably you know, she has enough in her coppers
Speaker 1: to know. I'm sure she's gonna be fine. But yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a it's a bullshit thing to do. Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: like your son cheated on her. Yeah, it's like literally
Speaker 1: your son couldn't be more at fault, and yet Latin
Speaker 1: men will persevere, you know how it is. Man, I
Speaker 1: got to have his back. I don't even care if
Speaker 1: I'm wrong. I got his Like, but you embarrassed him.
Speaker 1: If you didn't put it on blast like that, we
Speaker 1: would have taken care of you. But you embarrassed him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I know, and I know he didn't deny it,
Speaker 1: but you know it is what it is. But it
Speaker 1: also shows like that I wonder is he like their
Speaker 1: eldest son or something too, because it's smacks of like,
Speaker 1: my baby wouldn't do that, right lying she wears the proof.
Speaker 1: I know you proof, but like not enough. You didn't
Speaker 1: see it like that evidence? Yeah, exactly. Oh so you
Speaker 1: were there, yeah that one. Oh so you were there. No, Okay,
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't know. I'm not gonna do
Speaker 1: this your honor. All right, let's take a quick break
Speaker 1: and we'll be right back to talk some more trends
Speaker 1: right after this. And we're back, and so is Moanna.
Speaker 1: She's back. Shout out Victor. You know. One of our
Speaker 1: other producers put a video on the chat and I
Speaker 1: was like, what's this And I click on it and
Speaker 1: it's The Rock. He's in Oahu with his two little kids.
Speaker 1: He is announcing that there is a live action version
Speaker 1: of mo Wanna in the work which we were talking
Speaker 1: off Mike, I felt, this is pretty soon like the movie.
Speaker 1: I feel like maybe it came out longer ago than
Speaker 1: I thought. But I was like, wasn't it like twenty sixteen?
Speaker 1: Like this movie is not that old? They're going to
Speaker 1: be exposed for how bad the development is, where they're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: fuck it, man IG's back, all right, we're a goal
Speaker 1: with the Moana live action. They're like, we could maybe
Speaker 1: wait a few years and like that we could project
Speaker 1: put that revenue in another year that might be good
Speaker 1: for us, or like, no, we need that shit now.
Speaker 1: In two years, what we'll do is the animated version
Speaker 1: based on the live action version of Mowanna, and then
Speaker 1: we'll come back around and retread on that, and it's
Speaker 1: just a cycle. And then they opened the TV show
Speaker 1: and then it's a live action TV show and then
Speaker 1: an animated TV show. Yeah. See, look, you can have
Speaker 1: a job at Disney right now. Development. I'm on the
Speaker 1: developing team. Yeah, exactly. We're all in that. We have
Speaker 1: the lowest hanging fruit ideas for things. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I guess school. You know, I saw Mawana recently for
Speaker 1: the first time. Um, I guess, I don't know. You
Speaker 1: only saw Mowana. Yeah, I don't. I'm telling you. I
Speaker 1: after a fucking Lion King. I was out like the
Speaker 1: original Lion King. Oh yeah, with Jonathan Taylor Thomas, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Doing all that shit like that
Speaker 1: version I think to like my age and then being La.
Speaker 1: I was like in La and like my mom being
Speaker 1: a film critic, I became so ja did about the
Speaker 1: shit I watched? Or like I was trying to keep up.
Speaker 1: I was like batting way out of my league, like
Speaker 1: movie wise to be like I don't have time for that, okay,
Speaker 1: Like I'm about to watch this new David Lynch film
Speaker 1: um and and hold on and not understand anything about it,
Speaker 1: and been like I was better off. I'm like I
Speaker 1: was better off watching Lion King Kein. Mamuana was really good.
Speaker 1: I really did enjoy Muana. There are parts of it
Speaker 1: that are like questionable, but overall out of like the
Speaker 1: latest animated movies from Disney, it was one of the
Speaker 1: better ones. Like then, you know, Coco came out. Coco
Speaker 1: was like really incredible. I've come back around now too.
Speaker 1: I love I saw Coco, Yeah, Coco, and then didn't
Speaker 1: see but I saw seeing Red. Okay, what is it
Speaker 1: seeing red? Right? Is it seeing red or is it
Speaker 1: just red or red? I don't know whatever. It was
Speaker 1: really good. That one was really good too. I really
Speaker 1: enjoyed it Turning Red Victor's on It turning Red. Thank
Speaker 1: you Victor, just like Victor on Bodega Boys. The fact
Speaker 1: God just came through. Um yeah. The other thing is
Speaker 1: I used my brother in law's disney Let's account and
Speaker 1: then I didn't write this shit down and recently like
Speaker 1: my shit reset and I had logged out and then
Speaker 1: I'm I've been kind of I've been behind up, you're
Speaker 1: behind yeah, And I know he's listening and he's probably
Speaker 1: gonna text me. He's like, bro, here it is. Um,
Speaker 1: but anyway, mowanna let us know ze gang too soon
Speaker 1: or just the right amount of time? And is there
Speaker 1: even a right time? Like in your mind? If they
Speaker 1: start doing these brown stories live action, I don't know
Speaker 1: if I want it, because you know what, I'm worth
Speaker 1: going to suck it up. I'm more they're gonna suck
Speaker 1: it up because, um, I feel like Coco and and Contho,
Speaker 1: well specifically Coco. As much as it I had a
Speaker 1: lot of Latino influences, there were still a lot of
Speaker 1: white people signing off on that one. So I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm terrified of what it's going to turn into. If
Speaker 1: they're like, we're gonna make it's gonna be like in
Speaker 1: the Heights again, you know, and the Heights was so bad.
Speaker 1: They were like, but we got an Asian director, And
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, just because a lot of people of
Speaker 1: color were in the room doesn't mean it was wrong.
Speaker 1: So many different ways, will they have all the Ecra
Speaker 1: Valuo being the live action version, because she was the
Speaker 1: vocalist right like, she was the one and she I
Speaker 1: saw her at an event recently she came with the
Speaker 1: red blood hamprint on her mouth because she's like, I'm
Speaker 1: pulling enough for Indigenous women that are experiencing feminist side
Speaker 1: right now. I was like, they're gonna be like she's
Speaker 1: too old now, you know, we'll see, but anyway, we'll
Speaker 1: find out soon. And then is the Rock is going
Speaker 1: to be in it again? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: They said he's going to be in it. He's gonna
Speaker 1: role of course, I mean, it makes sense. Who else
Speaker 1: you can find this? All that? When it makes sense
Speaker 1: for sure? And I hope they bring Mouana back, the
Speaker 1: actress that play Mauana. But I'm worried they're gonna be
Speaker 1: like she's too old, and then it's like going to
Speaker 1: be questionable all the decisions they make in the casting
Speaker 1: right next trend New York Times, Elon apparently took away
Speaker 1: their blue check mark on Twitter out of spite. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, let me petyawn for fucking seven hour because
Speaker 1: I don't care about either of these people. And you're
Speaker 1: probably asking why did you bring it up on trends
Speaker 1: because I wanted to let you know what I'm yawning
Speaker 1: at this shit. If you were worried about Twitter being
Speaker 1: a reputable source, you know, I think we can for
Speaker 1: sure see that. It's not not that we didn't already
Speaker 1: know that, but like they're taking away check marks, are
Speaker 1: going to pay for check marks, like yep, up, it
Speaker 1: is what it is. He's doing his own thing out here,
Speaker 1: and he can get mad at them and change the
Speaker 1: verified badge. It's just so weird, like being gone for
Speaker 1: six weeks off there. Like I'll put it this way.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you have like someone you date and then you
Speaker 1: break up and you get back together, break up and
Speaker 1: get back together, but then you do that one breakup
Speaker 1: that's long enough. Yeah, that like when you get the
Speaker 1: like when they trying to do the X smash thing
Speaker 1: and you get that text, you kind of happens, No, actually,
Speaker 1: you know what this time it was to look, if
Speaker 1: you hit me up three weeks earlier, I might have
Speaker 1: right been back, But too much time is passing. I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: but then I miss out on a lot of the
Speaker 1: borg trends, you know what I mean. I love talking borgs.
Speaker 1: But then I have you, Becca, to just send me
Speaker 1: the TikTok's of kids who are the cultural appropriational even
Speaker 1: with the borg naming. That's how I'm really I'm so
Speaker 1: online and sensitive that I'm like, why why is this
Speaker 1: white woman saying she got borg tings? So crazy? Like
Speaker 1: I think the gen Z kids, they're so online, they're
Speaker 1: forgetting that a vee is not oh yeah, is not
Speaker 1: just TikTok slaying not. The most violent shit was when
Speaker 1: that one Taylor Swift fan said, Finn, yeah, you's getting
Speaker 1: worse if you follow her and that cycle and that story. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that girl, I can't remember her name is say my life,
Speaker 1: but I can see her eyes in my head and
Speaker 1: her horrible lash extensions. But she is a only fans person,
Speaker 1: and she makes a bajillion dollars only only fans. But
Speaker 1: she like went viral recently for ceticizing lesbians and women
Speaker 1: and then she was like, but it's okay because like
Speaker 1: my boyfriend thinks it's like so hot. And then people
Speaker 1: were like, no, that's like part of the problem, Like
Speaker 1: it's not okay that your boyfriend thinks it's caught that
Speaker 1: you want to make out with women, because it means
Speaker 1: he doesn't see women as people and as lesbian relationships
Speaker 1: as valid like co op the male gaze to justify this,
Speaker 1: like what it was so crazy. It's like it's there's
Speaker 1: like everything she says. And then like she even talked
Speaker 1: about how she needed to move apartments in La because
Speaker 1: like people were following her home because she kept identifying
Speaker 1: everything about her La apartment. And then she moved into
Speaker 1: a new place and was like yeah, and on the
Speaker 1: corner there's the air wand and then people were like
Speaker 1: trying to be like hey, girl, like it's not that
Speaker 1: we care about you really, but if you already had
Speaker 1: a move once, maybe stop saying every detail of where
Speaker 1: you're like literally showing your apartment's window of view and
Speaker 1: the corners that you live off of, and you won't
Speaker 1: have to move again. And then she was like, y'all
Speaker 1: are so sensitive on the internet. It's like it's like
Speaker 1: at this point, is it a bit like is it? Like?
Speaker 1: What is it? Yeah? Who knows? But all I know
Speaker 1: is I ain't gonna talk about her anymore anyway. All
Speaker 1: that to escape talking about Elon Musk. Do you see
Speaker 1: what we did? We had to go lead me to
Speaker 1: old shit and get our outrage, meet her up and
Speaker 1: finally the NBA, like I said, trend BA four twenty friendly.
Speaker 1: Could it be because Myles and Jack got mad Boosty's
Speaker 1: official NBA show and they know about I'm like, I'm
Speaker 1: always here being like, so, what was we've gonna do
Speaker 1: make you better? I don't think so anything. I don't
Speaker 1: know if that's performance enhancing unless you're doing like a
Speaker 1: hot dog eating contest in Coney Island or some shit.
Speaker 1: But anyway, there's like new agreement with the league and
Speaker 1: the players union coming out, and amongst other things, I
Speaker 1: just wanted to point out that the players will no
Speaker 1: longer be penalized for using marijuana under this agreement, so
Speaker 1: the marijuana has been removed from the drug testing program.
Speaker 1: On top of that, they'll be able to promote and
Speaker 1: invest in betting and or cannabis companies. I think that's
Speaker 1: really important, especially like with legalized cannabis. We need more
Speaker 1: owners that are of color, considering the disproportionate amount of
Speaker 1: people of color who are in prison to this day
Speaker 1: for marijuana offenses, even small ass ones. So being able
Speaker 1: to have people with the kind of capital like in
Speaker 1: the NBA, also being able to invest in that thing
Speaker 1: is fantastic because I think somebody was saying, I think
Speaker 1: they're when I was in Seattle, people are telling me
Speaker 1: to go hit up like Sean Kemp. I think Sean
Speaker 1: Kemp had like a weed store, and I was like, yes, exactly,
Speaker 1: and I will be loyal to them. I will. I
Speaker 1: will shop their brands first. But anyway, please be worker friendly,
Speaker 1: please please. Yeah, And that's a whole other one to
Speaker 1: go through anyway, but we shall see there. And they'll
Speaker 1: also be able to sign non gambling endorsement deals with
Speaker 1: sports betting companies. Also, players can invest in NBA and
Speaker 1: w NBA teams via players associations selected like a private
Speaker 1: equity firm, which already we'll see how that goes. But
Speaker 1: the ability for them to have some kind of ownership,
Speaker 1: you'd love to see it. I will probably look more
Speaker 1: at that agreement to see what else is going on.
Speaker 1: In there, but it's nice to see. And that's that's
Speaker 1: about it for now. Hey, Becka, thanks so much for
Speaker 1: joining me. You can catch us well Me episode tomorrow.
Speaker 1: We can get to me tomorrow on the episode with
Speaker 1: my fantastic co host Jowell Monique Tomorrow morning, bright and early.
Speaker 1: We'll see if Trump does take his wonderful walk to
Speaker 1: the courthouse. Will they get a mugshot, will he not?
Speaker 1: Will we see pictures of his tiny fingerprints? We don't know,
Speaker 1: will he even have to go to court? And maybe
Speaker 1: the Judge's like, oh, you know what if you don't
Speaker 1: feel like you don't have to. We will see, But
Speaker 1: more to come and we will talk to you later. Bye.
