1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:05,000
Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of Don't Trend,

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: So don't trend so close to me. That's courtesy of

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 1: Lisa P Lisa, Hello, thank you. Uh, I'm Jack. That's mild.

4
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: How's it going? Oh, it goes, it goes, it goes, goes.

5
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: What do you want to talk about? First? There are

6
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: four things trending right now that are worth talking about. Uh. Yeah.

7
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: The first one is a little grim um. Brooklyn Bridge

8
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: was trending because a man climbed the Brooklyn Bridge um

9
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: and was threatening to harm himself. Uh. And it was

10
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: a huge like I mean, there was helicopters everywhere the

11
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 1: news coverage. I think it's just for new I think

12
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 1: it's obvious right now that the country and most of

13
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: the world right now is a tremendous amount of chaos

14
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: and financial hardship. This just seemed to be a moment that,

15
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not sure what the reason was for

16
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: this guy climbing the bridge, but it just seemed like

17
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: a moment that was kind of odd to like have

18
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,119
Speaker 1: every news helicopter kind of showing, like as if they

19
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: wanted to broadcast whatever this man was gonna do, like

20
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 1: live across TV. But I think it really underlines the

21
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: fact that, especially right now, with people so isolated and

22
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: unable to have certain routines, especially for people like where

23
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: a routine is you know, massively important for your mental health.

24
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: The show is like, just how much that the other

25
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 1: kinds of support we still need to be offering people

26
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: during this quarantine rather than just sort of like focusing

27
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: on the economy and things like that. There are people

28
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: who also are you know, we we also need to

29
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: look after from a mental health standpoint. Yeah, little little

30
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: little uh grim to see that trending, but you know,

31
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: that's that is the situation. I think we'd have to

32
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: be in a bit of denial to not think that

33
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: there's a lot of pain right now. And hopefully those

34
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: who need any kind of assistance can get that. But

35
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: and hey, if you have anyone that you feel like

36
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: you haven't heard from in a second, please reach out

37
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: and check on everybody. It's just you know, you'll you'll

38
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: feel better and everybody always appreciates a checking, especially right

39
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: now on less Grim. But somewhat related, I just I

40
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: feel like the bridges going into Manhattan or like the

41
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: coolest looking thing in any like part of America just

42
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: like all like how massive they are and just like

43
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: the weird like ways that scale messes with your like

44
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: visual field. It's really Yeah. It's one thing when you

45
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: always see like those bridges or any bridge, the Golden

46
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: Gate Bridge on a postcard screensaver wall, and then you

47
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: can get there and you're like, uh, this cable is

48
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: like about as thick as like like an NFL football

49
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: teams hot. Yeah, And there's just like entire towns, like

50
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: the entire Yeah, basically like sections of the city that

51
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: would be as big as like big cities in America

52
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,519
Speaker 1: that are just like all take place in the shadow

53
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: of like one of the bridges. Like they're just like massive,

54
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: very cool. I feel like a sci fi movie, but

55
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: they were built in the nineteen early nineteen hundreds. Uh,

56
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: Megan Fox is Filipino. That's something that's trending and it's

57
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: not true. Yeah, no, not true. Well, also Filipino people,

58
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: especially in like the Filipinos I know in California, Filipinos.

59
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: No immediately if any celebrity is even remotely or partially Filipino.

60
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: It's like I think any group, any ethnic group who

61
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: has like celebrities, like we all know who we can

62
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: claim as our own celebrities. So this is kind of

63
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: a joke because there was like a fashion show where

64
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: I think someone had a Megan Fox mask on in

65
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: a fashion show in the Philippines and people were making

66
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: you know, that's when Filipino Twitter started making fun of.

67
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: It's being like, yes, Megan Fox is Filipino with a

68
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: bunch of just you know, tropes from Filipino culture about

69
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: you know, like how just given her Flipino cretit? Yeah, well,

70
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 1: shout out to Twitter then, and I thought one of

71
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: the great uh tweets I saw in this hashtag with

72
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: someone said I won't believe hashtag Megan foxes Filipino until

73
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 1: Scarlett Johanson places bio pick. That never gets old. It

74
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: never gets old because never gets old because Scarlett Johansson

75
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: still won't admit that she was wrong about that. She's

76
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: still just like yeah know what what are you talking about?

77
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 1: And we will continue to hand you these al Oh.

78
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: By the way, Megan Fox uh and Machine Gun Kelly

79
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 1: they're like in a new music video together and in

80
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: a movie together. So maybe that's why they were hanging out,

81
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: or maybe that's why they together is because they are

82
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: all the Mr and Mrs Smith. The old Mr and

83
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: Mrs Smith effect, as physicists call it, Jerry Sloan is

84
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: trending R I P to a real one. The coach

85
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: of the Utah Jazz for a long time. Uh had

86
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: some good lines in the last Dance where he was like,

87
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: wait is that the real final score? Holy shit? When

88
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: they lost. He seems like he was a good guy, right,

89
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: I feel like he was seemed like a really stand

90
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: up I don't know, I don't know anybody who was

91
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 1: like in his coaching tree, so I don't really know

92
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: him that well, but like he just seemed like he

93
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: was like a real life for like all he cared

94
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 1: about was basketball and yeah, real like badass dude. I

95
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: mean I grew up hating Jerry Sloan as a Laker

96
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: fan because, especially like pre Kobe Shock, when we would

97
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 1: get to the postseason, inevitably our play our postseason ended

98
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: in Utah because they were just a better team and

99
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 1: we don't have a we don't have an answer for

100
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: that pick and roll until you know Phil Jackson, I

101
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: mean even Jack Kobe. Yeah. But then but then the

102
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: balance of power came back, and then we would put

103
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: the smash on the Jazz rightfully, as we should. But

104
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 1: there was something about Jerry Sloan. Even though I this

105
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: the disdain I had for the Jazz as an organization,

106
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: there was something about Jerry Sloan. I couldn't quite like

107
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: hate about him because he just seemed like respectable And

108
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: I was like, damn, like, you're not really antagonizing me

109
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: as a coach or anything. He's just putting out a

110
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: better team. For some reason. Every time I look at him,

111
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: I hear the Law and Order Denton, Like he looks

112
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: like he should be one of the prosecutors or something

113
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,239
Speaker 1: in Law and order. Yeah, but yeah, man, he built

114
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 1: he built a really strong team. I know. My my

115
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: dad used to say he was one of the best

116
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: coaches in the league, Like one of the hardest guys

117
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 1: to prepare against. Uh so right, because those teams he

118
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: did it with two Like I'm like, we've got Jeff Horness,

119
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: John Stockton and Karl Malone just beating the breaks right now.

120
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: And that's what's frustrating too, because between Stockton and Hornets,

121
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: they look like a count and it's just like they're good.

122
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: Uh Tenant is true? Ending not George t n e

123
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: t We still do not know what that means, but

124
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: it is the name of an upcoming Christopher Nolan movie. Uh,

125
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: it is a movie. It looks like it's really like

126
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: in the tradition of inception, it's like his next inception

127
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: because it's it's messing with the time space continuum like

128
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: it's it seems like the main kind of tropes instead

129
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: of dreams. They're able to manipulate the time stream, like

130
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: time moves forward and backward, and uh, there's just all

131
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: sorts of dope visual effects. Stars John David Washington. It

132
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: stars Robert Pattinson It looks so good, and Sean Bean

133
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: Bean mich Okay, it's got it. Everybody in there, I mean,

134
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: no Kenneth Brownna. Sorry, I've confused it too because they

135
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: both have impossibly thin they do. I mean, hey, like

136
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: the same person basically, but Kenneth Bruna, Yeah, they're very

137
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: very similar. I mean the you know. I I love

138
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: a lot of Christopher Nolan's films, mostly to do because

139
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: of his like philosophy of doing everything as much in

140
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: camera as possible, because I think you know that that's

141
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: really I think that's the magic sauce. A lot of

142
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: his films, Inception I keep rewatching, and I look, I

143
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: can live with the plot holes, because like it's tough

144
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: trying to keep track of all these you know, the

145
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: way time works and time dilation and dreams. This one,

146
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: I can only imagine how like hard it will be

147
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 1: to keep track of all these threads because we're like

148
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: messing with how time works as like part of the plot.

149
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: But it looks really really interesting. I'm so happy to

150
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: be followed by a Christopher Nolan plot hole. Like Christopher

151
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: Nolan is a master of the plot hole, and he

152
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: uses them to his advantage. He knows he he knows

153
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 1: that like movie logic is not the same as regular logic,

154
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 1: and so he will do things like send Batman through

155
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: a tunnel and like when he goes into the tunnel,

156
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: it's daytime. When he comes out of the tunnel, it's nighttime,

157
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: and like your brain doesn't notice it because it's just like, oh, yeah,

158
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter. It's nice for some reason, like

159
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: he's yeah, he's got like a grasp of movie magic

160
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: that I feel like other directors don't. And that's why

161
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 1: I yeah, that's why he's so good. Inception full of

162
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: plath holes. If you think about it, but don't think

163
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,959
Speaker 1: about it. Just watch it. Don't just watch me, Like, whoa,

164
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: what if you could go into someone else's dream? The

165
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: thing that was I think with the title it being

166
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 1: a palindrome probably matters because they're talking about time going

167
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: forwards and backwards, so tenant reads the same. Uh that's

168
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,599
Speaker 1: my one theory there, but I'm trying to like it.

169
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 1: Go hang us salamiama lasagna U oh boy, my longest palindrome.

170
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 1: Wait a salami hog. I just know a man a

171
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 1: plan a canal Panama. Uh. Anyway, hey, look with Palin palindrome.

172
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 1: But the other thing with I love Christopher Nolan's like

173
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 1: trailers like you reminder. This trailer reminds me exactly of

174
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: the Inception trailer where you have it play out and

175
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: then you have a tag at the end where a

176
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,959
Speaker 1: British accent guy has to give you, like the fucking

177
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: the button on the fucking trailer where Tom Hardy wasn't

178
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: the Inception was like You've got to dream a bit

179
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: bigger or whatever the funk he said he had, like

180
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: I'm seventy nine grenade launch or some sh it. And

181
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 1: then this one is like Robert Pattinson, his thing of

182
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: just being his little big plane crash. Yeah, you know

183
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: that's the that's the Nolan touched. That part is a

184
00:10:54,760 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: little dramatic. Apparently Pattinson's character mannerism are based on Christopher Hitchens.

185
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: Yeah great, Um, yeah, there's they They debuted this trailer
