Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of Jeremy al trend White from the Bear from help Trends, Cline from help Trends, zight, SI mind, I'm Jack and he's back.
Is my all?
I'm back?
What time is it? Where am I? Who am I? Where? I don't know?
You're on that, man, It took me, like my family a week and a half to get over just the three hour time difference from East coast to West coast. My kids three yeah, yeah, the three hour problem. Eighteen you're you're on to do them nineteen next level ship, dude.
I'm fine for now until I completely fall asleep in the next recording, and then we will see what the limits are of my nearly forty year old body. But so we will see grandly good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah cool.
Anyway, we shout out to everybody. I hope everybody had a good break. I had a good break. I was. It was so fantastic to take the guy's child to Japan. And also I am.
Weeping because of just the exorbitant food costs that we experience here as Americans. I'm I think that is by far one of the most radicalizing experiences a person can have is to go somewhere where food like ahead of lettuce isn't like four dollars, you know what I mean, Like a cucumber.
Is like sixty cents for like five.
It's worth. You can possibly travel to another country. If you're from America and you spent your whole life in America, it's worth traveling to another country and then coming back noticing how fucked the vibes are.
Yeah.
I just remember coming back and re entry, like waiting in a line at the airport for something and just be like, man, everybody's so fucking mad.
Yeah, and so.
Like the little patients.
So yeah, well it's not easy. It's not easy being greasy.
It's not easy in this country.
All right. I'm Jack.
That's miles and some things that are trending. And Rfk's birthday is coming up.
And is it? What is his birthday? Who's RFK? Like? Who even like planning his birthday? It's like kind of some like whack birthdays sounds like, yeah, I don't know.
This is I mean, I I sympathize a lot. This is how birthday planning goes for me too, Like every time I try and plan a birthday, I claim that Mike Tyson is going to be there.
M hm.
Mike Tyson contradicts that claim through a spokesperson. I pretend I didn't even want to have a birthday party and didn't even know it was my birthday coming up, and then I run out of the room crying. Uh. Yeah, he's been he's been making headlines for basically everything that isn't having a successful presidential It's.
Like, oh, you're on You're on Epstein's stead He's like yeah, like twice, okay, so what so what?
And I and I get.
It, Like the flex I mean Hawkings was on there, that guy fucking like have you ever read The Invention of Time? Or what is it? Time? And what's that? What's hawking book that everybody every stoner read and was like, dude, I'm actually basically a fucking physicist. No, that's a.
Brief history brief history of Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Were those pictures real of him like on that talking?
I believe so because it was wild.
I remember right after that ship dropped, the amount of like AI generated picks that came out were wild, and like it was interesting to see even people be like, I know, y'all want to believe it. But this pic is not fucking real. It's just that's how how good fucking mid Journey is right now, dude.
Like ship. That was the thing that made me like, I think they are real as the pictures looked absolutely like because now people are dude, people are like I saw there's like a whole subreddit where people are showing like should they make a mid Journey?
And one was just showing like.
It looked like if you were on a date with Putin and you were taking cell phone pictures of him like throughout the night, and it's just like of that quality but somewhat like believable.
It is really it's really wild.
But anyway, uh yeah, So this is interesting though too because the other thing is this birthday party. Like said Jack, Mike Tyson will not be there, be there, and we heard the likes of Mike Tyson, Dion Warick, Andrea Bocelli, Martin Sheen would all be in attendance for his seventieth birthday bash in Indian Wells, California later this month. Then all of those people who I just mentioned said, I have no fucking clue what you're talking about.
Please stop calling me about this.
I think Dion Warick said like, if you're gonna lie on my name, please use it for something better than this.
So this absolute embarrassment.
And then like first like it was we're like, okay, this is his birthday party that's being thrown. Then we find out it was like a pack organized like a pac organized event, and now it's like, no, it definitely has nothing to do with him, Like this pack organized it and it's actually a fundraiser. So like, were they just chumming the waters to attract donors because they thought someone who has actually had a better chance of being president in the form of Martin Sheen would be there.
Then RFK Junior or is RFK some kind of fucking loser and he's using like the pack to be like, nah ah, I didn't know else taking here because I had nothing to do with this fantasy birthday party with my fantasy Or is it just purely like a cynical tactic to like align these celebrities with the campaign and just make fake news.
It's all real weird.
Yeah, and now it sounds like RFK won't even be there.
Yeah, that's so I love that reversal. He's like, I don't even know about this. What do you mean, Oh, I guess it is my birthday. That's weird. Doesn't bother me. It doesn't matter to me because I'm too worried about being president.
And even those numbers are starting to fizzle out too, like his his spoiler numbers are aren't that great?
But not helping either side really at this point, yeah, not even himself. Trump's appeals hearing on presidential immunity claims happened. Seems like the three judges on the US Court of Appeals for DC, we're basically not having it. Or their their line of questioning was like, wait, what, No, you used.
The legal the the proper legal parlance for that. They were not having it.
Yeah, they were basically saying that what they were arguing, what Trump's layers were arguing, would allow presidents to sell pardons or even assassinate political opponents, and uh, the Trump Trump's layers are like, yeah, so yeah, that's what we're saying. What's your fucking problem?
Right, And they're also been like, the only way he could do something is illegal is like is he's fully impeached first? Right, and then that did this, that and the other, And it's like wow again skeptical was a very charitable use of the phrase for how these judges looked at it.
Which leads to the next question that the courts are supposed to be determining, which is like, so we're like, should should this guy be running for president? Like I
feel like that's our last best chance. It's probably not going to happen, but like the Supreme Court just being like we're old school Republicans, we're quietly racist, but we don't think that this guy should be president, and like like stepping in doing the like we're extremely bad one day and then like do the thing that people are asking us to do the other day. But I don't know, I don't know how likely that is. Just feels like this Supreme Court move to do that, so like yeah, keep you guess.
Yeah, it'll be interesting what even dimensions of the case they are going to actually rule on, because like you know, in the in the olden days, when something got up there, they ruled on like every like principle, like every sort of dimension of a case, and now they might just pick out one thing so they can avoid being like we either took them off the ballot or we're yeah, we're sending this thing into a further death spiral.
We actually just noticed that you used the wrong form of there in the fifteenth sentence, So that's what we're rolling on. We're just doing a quick proof read.
So that's it.
The saying sounds like y'all have bad grammar in Colorado, and that's my ruling.
Knock knock by.
Big News. Did you see the guy jump into a solid asia?
But that that traveled all around trail, that story traveled man and Connor in the urn.
Yeah, Connor in the art.
Little little Yamagucci Man had him on his podcast? Did he really?
Yeah?
It was so wild.
I was reading the fucking Daily Beast and They're like, he appeared on a podcaster who goes by the name Christi Yamagucci Mans Johns Center, and I was like, look at the young man.
Rise cannot stop him. But yeah, he had he had the guy on.
That video was incredible.
His attitude again, I'm sorry that the attitude of that man to do some dumb ship like get in like a fucking vase or urn or whatever. Fucking you know, you want to argue the linguistics here, But then he's like, can.
You guess help me? It was so mad they couldn't get out.
It's like, bro, you literally went in there like some fucking dumb ass four year old, and now you have the anger of a of a grown person.
But hey, hey, everyone's nice in theory until they get stuck in an urn and then the real, the real ship comes out. I'm in a in an elevator for like a minute and a half and I was full paying, sweating, sweating from every part of my body.
And you said, you ate the other occupants that were the elevator.
Yeah, I have one son. Now it works up an appetite with all that nervis energy.
Yeah, for really, Plus you don't know what you're gonna get out.
But yeah, the Bass Pro Shop got was he just drunk?
We don't know, and he might be. They're saying he might be suffering from some mental health issues. But it's the only reason I want to bring it up is because this is not all that uncommon. People are jumping into those Bass Pro Shop tanks all the time, which I have not been in a Bass Pro Shop, but I've been by aquariums like that, and all you want to do is jump in there and swim around with a fish. You know, like I guess it looks like a black anytime.
Like the one time I've seen it, I was like, Yo, they got a whole fucking lake in here with the fuck is this?
So there's it seems like there's people who are pulling it up, like jumping in to the tank and then running out like it's like the mass pro Shop challenge and like getting away with it, right, yeah, a manager. So in one case in twenty twenty, once again in Florida, video shows a man walk up the stairs, dive into the tank at the store at the Gulf Coast Town Center and then run off, and a manager followed the man out of the store and saw him leaving a
silver sedan, So he got away with it. And then but just in case anyone thinks a good idea, twenty seventeen, a teenager recorded himself jumping into the tank but accidentally cracked his head on a rock lock. Yeah, careful, careful, Yeah, it's it's not built for you to jump into you know exactly.
Look, get fully nude, but wear a helmet, that's right, and that's really the way to protect yourself.
Oh wow, you weren't here for that episode where we talked about sleeping with socks on. Are you what is your opinion on people who don't.
Give a shit but don't fucking touch me. It's your damn sock feed in the bed.
Fuck that your sock feed interesting because someone wed the cold feet, the bear cold feet, or.
I have Look, I'm somebody who in a corporate corporeal Do we say.
Corporal or corporeal?
Corporeal?
Okay? Then wait, the what's quarterly punishment?
Corporal punishment? Is there? I mean it. I think it's just people mispronouncing corporeal. I don't know. I think they probably have the same derivation, but.
Right anyway, it could be either I was raised by people who only know things from military films, and so we mispronounced things based on how things are set in movies. But for me, my my body runs warm hot, So I have always been the uh warmer of cold extremities for people I've shared a bed with.
So I've always been like, I mean, put my feet on you, I'm cold, like warking up. I've you know, I'm like, yeah, whatever.
It's not it's not that uh, you know, it's not that horrific of an experience, but there is something distressing about I'm used to just feeling like skin like just someone's like, just you know, you're in a bed, you're not wearing socks.
So when I felt socks and I'm like, ah, so that is.
Like that seems wrong to you, the idea of socks.
No, I don't care, Like I get Well, here's the thing.
I have definitely worn socks in a bed right because I know it's very difficult to fall asleep if you're if your feet are cold, that's just fact.
So from that, I don't.
Give it like I'm not one of these people who are like, if you wear socks you need help kind of person like if it's fucking because I've had like, for example, like if you have like a flu or some shit and you can't get your fucking temperature right or whatever and you're and you're trying to fall asleep and your feet just don't fucking warm up.
Then yeah, I'm a fucking wear some socks, Like what the fuck? Yeah, But I don't know.
I I I definite really I can see why because I've heard people be like it's disgusting or you shouldn't do it. I mean, but you should have like don't be wearing your socks. Don't wear the whole day.
Yeah, yeah, have.
Some bed socks. Fine, Yeah, it does remind me, y'all.
I really wish I had some more support for my ill fated musical bed socks and broomsticks. Y'all did not show up for that, And that's fine, that's fine, But we had a moment.
We missed it. We missed it.
All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back, and we're back, and BuzzFeed's still out here doing it with an article. There's just a list of things people have said, uh, they had to stop buying because they became too expensive, and we were just a combination of So the title is this was a breaking point for me. People are revealing the everyday items they had to stop buying because they became too expensive. And it goes concert
tickets number one two A strange one, but bowling. A few years ago, my girlfriend and I went bowling at a local bolero and it was maybe sixty dollars for shoe rental.
Yeah, yeah, I've been there.
I've been got by.
Bolero number three. Medication number four as wait, I'm sorry, medication.
We just did we didn't concert tickets, bullet medication, uh inlent and then and then also like just my Amazon Prime like they added ads.
Now, oh what was number three again?
Jeez, Royce?
Are these I mean that's kind of a weird.
Like, I'm sorry, concert tickets are not an everyday item.
Maybe not for you, but I am at a concert every night.
Every night in a full panic being like who's this band, Who's this band? Who's this can't miss? Like medication.
I totally understand things that you can buy a grocery store that are part of your day to day for sure. I'm like, and I like, I think other things like Airbnb's just too damn expensive. I don't know if that's necessarily like saying like that's an everyday item or whatever.
I mean, it was something that was affordable. They sound very flawed model, but like, I think this this would maybe have some more teeth if we were talking about medication, if we're talking about like food stuffs and things of the like, Yeah, I.
Think I mean there so there's food stuff in here, like beef jerky. People are apparently I've never been a beef terkey purchased regular purchaser of beef jerkey but people are saying it's too costly, lower quality meat, and the bag is half empty. Ordering pizza, I have noticed the pizza, like just ordering food in general, Like there's a lot of fees that get tacked on the more.
Dude, you know, I'm not going to put anybody on blast, but you know that pizza place we like to.
Go to that we have a lot for our group gatherings.
Uh huh.
I had order a pizza and a meatball HOGI that shit came out to damn near fifty dollars.
Yeah, man, everything comes out to fucking fifty dollars. Now, it's likely twenty.
In my mind, I feel like we're in this era where twenty dollars is what everything costs now at a minimum, Like you shouldn't be surprised if anything costs twenty dollars, Like toothpaste, I don't know, I guess it's twenty dollars.
A new toothbrush, I don't has a twenty.
Dollars twenty dollars I guess, yeah, No, it's true. Like so the article, I think the overall idea of the article is getting at is just like everybody's feeling this thing where just everything got more expensive than Like, there's definitely been headlines. It's like inflation slowed down. Folks, we can all go, But I feel like it feels it Maybe I just wasn't noticing it as much, like, but it's it's still seems like everything's way too fucking expensive right now.
Yeah, uh, what us is on your new video games? I mean, look, not everyday item, but we Yeah, this shit is like fucking we're talking about like if you get anything, if you just they're like they they'll be like, oh, you want the new character skin along with it? That's ninety nine, right What I remember when shit was like forty and we were obviously that was that was it. Now where every fucking new system everything goes up like ten bucks.
Sounds like you're not grinding hard enough, Dude's I'm.
Not, Dude, I'm not. I'm not. I'm not grinding hard enough.
And thank you for reminding me I'm not grinding hard enough from my child's medications.
Thank you. There's a new Star Wars movie that's been announced, which, you know, getting excited about a new Star Wars movie can feel a little bit like being Charlie Brown and running up to that football with Lucy holding it. But you know, they just announced that there's going to be one called The Mandalorian and Grogu because like baby Yoda's the only Star Wars character anybody seems to care about
right now. It's going to be directed by John Favreau, who made The Mandalorian the season that everybody liked, and it's going to be the first Star Wars movie to go into production since twenty nineteen Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker. And my seven year old is gonna be super excited about this if but I feel like I'm gonna try not to let him know about it for now, because well.
You gonna find out about it from the other kids.
Nah, We're I'm gonna I'm gonna dog too, thou that real quick?
Did you see the trailer for y'all better not be okay, whispered in my ear? What you're gonna say to my son real quick? Okay, yeah about that, about that, talk about that.
But don't talk about that one thing where it's ugly a toll jall already.
But they've they've announced a ton of movies like there was so there was supposed to be a Ryan Johnson trilogy. That they never officially canceled. They're just like, yeah, we're probably gonna do that. He's just real busy with the Knives Out movies. So it's just a thing. We announced. There's a Roke Squadron movie that was gonna be directed by Patty Jenkins that's been shelved indefinitely. They're they're like, I don't know, it just seems like Patty's real busy
with the Wonder Woman franchise. They just like throw everything gets thrown back to like these I don't know, they seem real busy. It's like, you're Star Wars.
You could probably Star Wars. Hey you're Joe Biden.
My hands are damn tied.
AT's cook all over them. Don't even know what to do.
Penny often Weiss had uh, I think a trilogy, and then they got too busy with this dang Netflix deal. Kevin Feige from the Marvel Universe supposedly had one coming, and then he he has officially been like, that's just not happening. From Takawa t T still officially in development on one, but he doesn't want to rush it.
So I don't know.
Just it feels like they're announcing a lot of projects, and then.
This feels so this of all of them, this is such a blatant cash grab.
Hey what about Mando and the Grogu?
Yeah?
Really is that the title and the bear guy? I love this one. It's man gu Man.
And for that reason, I feel like it's the one that's actually gonna happen.
But oh yeah, they I mean when I went to Disneyland and saw the amount of like kids who were just like there for the gro gu of it all, I was like.
Yeah, I don't know.
I mean, in my mind, like as an old crotchety like fucking og like trilogy, feeling like going in it for the fucking real shit, like with my fucking backpack on.
Uh. Well, we'll see.
We'll see how uh how cutesy or funsie or dark it will be.
Maybe it'll be dark as fuck and then that'll teach him. That's the damn kids that'll learn you.
Oh yeah, you think he's cute blood? All right, Well, those are some of the things that are trending on this Tuesday, January ninth. We are back tomorrow with the whole last episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other, Be kind to yourself, it's the vaccine. Don't do nothing about white of potasy, and we will talk to you all tomorrow. Bye bye,
