  Speaker 1: nine eight seven Jen and grabbed the trending news headlines.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: Just one day after Meta was found libel in that
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: case involving the exploitation of kids in New Mexico that
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: we talked about. The company now has to pay damages
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: in another lawsuit in Los Angeles. So in this case
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: Meta and YouTube, they're going to have to pay a
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: combined six million dollars to a woman, not the state,
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: but to a woman who says the platforms were designed
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: to be addictive. And she claims features like auto scrolling
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: led to anxiety and depression, body imagicus.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: You list goes on and.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: On, unpopular opinion. Oh I hope we ate a lign
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: on this. I want to park it here as well.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Unpopular opinion. I think all these people suing over stuff
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: like that are ridiculous. Of course, you create a product
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: or a business service whatever that you want people to
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: use over and over and over and again. That's the
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: whole Okay, the fact that you ate all the McDonald's
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: and became a big giant fat ass, or the fact
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: that you bought cigarettes and you smoked them till you
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: got cancer like this is this is not their fault.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: A second, this is not their fault. It is not
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: the gun manufacturer's fault that somebody used that gun to
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: turn around and shoot somebody with it.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's not their fault that.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: And also just you didn't use it for its quote
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: intended purpose. Of course, they want you to spend more.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Every TV network, every radio station or show, every podcast
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: wants more and more people to every that real estate.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: So it's it's a lot of parents that are behind
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: this lawsuit insane. This did this to their kids. I'm like,
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: where were you at there the device. I don't know
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: if it was this woman, but the one of the
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: lawsuits was a woman that was suing them because she
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: was using the platform, and she broke the rules because
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: she was using it under thirteen years old.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: And all right, they have the rules about to sign
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: up like a for Instagram or whatever. What.
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: I don't know how long I think they're still Yeah,
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: I think they still size it with her.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So there's another story. Two gamblers in Pennsylvania. They
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: fought a lawsuit against the NFL DraftKings and fan Duel.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: The two plainiffs alledged that an addiction to gambling led
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: them to lose over two million dollars, and a central
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: issue in the case concerns micro betting, so where betters
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: can place wagers on individual plays. It's like, this is
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: not their fault.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure it did need you to lose two dollars.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Like you can't sue Budwiser, remembercause you're drunk.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I would like to sue the avocado industry.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I can't stop.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, sue M and M's gray.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: I should suit it too good. I figured you guys
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: were going to say that I agree. But the thing
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: I took issue with was she gets a combined six
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: million dollars. It's not like reform is happening or they're
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: going to change the way they she just gets a payout.
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: They say that this will like affect social media in
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: a big.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: Way because now they don't want to keep getting sued.
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: Anybody can sue them.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: Well, Meta agrees and says mental health is complex and
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: can't be blamed on one app.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Genie and stuff. I think, you know one thing, I
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: think I really would if I could three wishes, I
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: think for the better. I would use one of those
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: wishes for the betterment of man's right too selfishly selfish,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: too selfishly, And I'm not sure exactly what I'd use
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: those for, but I think one and because it would
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: be interesting to see the effect it would have would
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: be to make everybody like mind a race and have
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: it so can never come back to social media all
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: of it like, have it all go the way it
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: was and nobody and make it so like nobody would
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: even have that idea. It would never repopulate our society.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: I think about this all the time. Are we in
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: general the broad scope of the world in history, are
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: we better off with it? Or would we have been
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: better off?
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: There's no way like. Are there benefits? Sure, there's entertainment
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: some started, But dude, that is I'm with you, it
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: would be I think it'd be interesting to see. Like
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: you know, obviously this is not realistic, But what effect
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: it would have? What would society heal right with certain
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: things in society? Would it heal would we have less division?
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Would people get less absolutely fired up? Would bring the
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: temperature down a hundred? Would have to write yes.
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: And it's so funny because the first thing that came
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: to my mind when you just said that was when
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: I was in college about seventy two years ag go,
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: we went to Greece and I had all my pictures
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: and I will never forget showing my dad pictures of
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: beautiful landscape, and you go, why aren't you in any
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: of these? And I said, I don't want to get
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: in the way of the landscape. Don't you want to
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: see how beautiful it is? And now, as you know
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: you like love taking selfies, it's just a different world,
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: like why would I sully this beautiful picture? Why would
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: I get in the way of it? And now, of
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: course none of us think that a wick.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: In the lawsuit, she says it gave her body image issues.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: You know what else gives you body image issues? Walking
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: down the hallway? Yeah, can you compare yourself to everybody
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: all the time. It's not social media? Shut up.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're gonna appeal and there's so much finger pointing.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah huh yeah, nothing is anybody's fault.
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: Where all the people suing they all kind of look
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: alike to it's weird they're hot.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: This this lawsuit against the NFL and DraftKings, it's I mean,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: come on, man.
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's weird. I do have a little of
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: a caveat What do you think about this? Okay, maybe
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: social media didn't totally disappear right, but the comment section
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: did now, because that's where a lot of them are
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: my favorite part. I know it's your favorite part and
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: the most entertaining, but that's what causes the most friction. Now,
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: there might be an argument like, well, we do want
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: social media and all these avenues because then we get
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: more information than we would because you know, information would
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: be controlled if we didn't right now, because people wouldn't
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: have these outlets, and you wouldn't hear about other stories
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: that you wouldn't be exposed to, and like information you
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: would be exposed to. I think the comment section is
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: just but most of what you see on social media
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: isn't actual fact, it's it's all editorialized.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: It's just people spouting off.
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: You don't think that news is editorialized?
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: Why weaponize it to a times a billion, which is randoms?
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: And I know people like they take issue when I
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: say this, not everybody should have a platform. Yeah, I agree,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Right, by the way, the
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: first planeff in this lawsuit against the NFL says he
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: lost one point eight three millions through the sites. Now
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: here's a question, president, Can someone who's such a loser
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: have so much money to lose?
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good question. Credit though, Yeah, right, he
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: would be somebody going to break his.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: Kneecaps, family money.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: The other guy he blew through one hundred and seventy
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: five thousand. Okay, I can see where maybe you know,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: he was able to get that together, but at one
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: point three million, that's a.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: Really good questions like how do you get loans?
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: Were you to say, yeah, I just want money, Well,
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: you don't say what you want it for.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Well, because usually you have you have some type of
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: thing that will you put your house, house, you put
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: your you know, whatever, you gut stocks you get different
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: things that you can use right to your house for
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: a you know, this.
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: Is a sure thing you never even think to do that.
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: Well.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: MLB Opening Day kicked off with a matchup between the
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: Yankees and the Giants in San Francisco, and the Yankees
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: blew them out seven and nothing to five runs in
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: the second inning.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: And while the game itself was you know, kind.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: Of whatever, the first ever broadcast on Netflix did have
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: a couple of bright spots, and fans say that having
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: Giants legend Barry Bonds on air was a.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: Quote breath of fresh air.
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: They're hanging out, and they actually.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: Praised him for admitting that he wasn't the best teammate
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: off the field, which is nice when somebody will, you.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Know, rising It was pretty funny, man, because a lot
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: of people, I guess, had never heard Barry Bond speak,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: like that's what Barry Bond sounds like, Oh yeah, yeah,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: you expect him to have like this, yeah, and he's
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: kind of like, you know, like anyway voice.
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: Well, there seems to be no end in sight for
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: the TSA drama at the airports. Is the government shut
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: down just keeps going and going. First, the Democrats wanted
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: a deal that would fund TSA separate from the rest
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: of homeland security funding. But Republicans said no. But now
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: it's the Republicans that have a deal on the table
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: to fund TSA separate from d d HS, and it's
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: the Democrats who are saying now, so they're all a
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: bunch of little bitches. Basically, n TSA workers have been quitting,
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: calling out and record numbers and security delays at the airport.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: Now they go, oh, it was two hours. No, it's worse.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: I've seen six hours.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: And you see these crazy like aerial shots of the
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: like snaking around like.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: Full hallways down the airport, down.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Out to the parking garages and stuff.
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: I'm I'll just turn around.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Well, it's just interesting because cancel. It starts with one
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: side saying something and then as soon as the other
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: person starts to it, then all of a.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: Sudden, we don't want it anymore.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, there's such big babies bitches totally. Yeah, drives
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: me crazy, Sam. There's some Trader Joe's news.
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: Yes, what tell me?
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: And Hey tell your mom?
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh I know what it's about.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: What there's a new large lavender and pink tote.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: I saw it. Oh, they're my appointment.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: So Trader Joe's.
• 10:05
  Speaker 7: I went to Trader Joe's that day, not even really.
• 10:08
  Speaker 7: I mean I had seen it on the news when
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: I wasn't thinking about the lavender toe, And when I
• 10:13
  Speaker 7: got there, I saw the many Easter ones, which I did,
• 10:17
  Speaker 7: and I'm getting someone and the checkout lady was telling
• 10:21
  Speaker 7: me about the lavender toats and how they went so
• 10:23
  Speaker 7: fast in the morning and that.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: They actually had people buying something.
• 10:27
  Speaker 7: It was one per person buying some and then coming
• 10:30
  Speaker 7: back in disguise.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: Here and there like.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Glasses. Do you remember how Sea Bass for steel a Base,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Steel a Taco promotions during the World Series. He would
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: go into the Taco bells. They were giving away a
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: free taco if the opposing team stole a base during
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: the World Series, right, Yeah, And so he would go
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: in get his free taco as Sea Bass, and then
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: he would come back. He would dress a business scientists.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Then he come back dresses a dog old lady. Yeah.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Now people are going in in disguise.
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: Like.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: Because you could resell those for like five thousand dollars.
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: A buddy of mine's sister just walked in and they
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: had them.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Well, I just.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: Walked in and got the Mani ones.
• 11:16
  Speaker 7: And what I noticed with the many ones that my
• 11:18
  Speaker 7: personal trader Joe's, was they don't have them hanging out
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: with all the regular bags.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: But I'm sure they did with the lavender.
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: Too as well.
• 11:24
  Speaker 7: They're in a box kind of like off somewhere else
• 11:27
  Speaker 7: where like the water and drinks, kind of want it
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: and with like a sign pointing down to where they are,
• 11:33
  Speaker 7: but you they make you punt for it.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: You have to really want the be riot.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: What a world, Greg.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: I say this with absolutely all sincerity. Sammy. I've been
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: kind of rewatching hoarders lately, and you are kind of
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: entering into that mentality. Because hoarders think they and you
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: use this word, need this stuff. They find something on sale,
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: they buy it. It sits in an attic or a
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: basement for decades and oh well it was a it
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: was on sale, I needed it. No, you never even
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: used it. And now every time they make a new
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: tote bag, you're like, oh, it's so cute, I need it.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: I gotta have it.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: And next thing you know, you're gonna be a hoarder
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: with eighty seven.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Because it's sold out.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: I know, but you look at the desperation you have
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: and if you find it, you know you're gonna get it.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: So many times you created this for so many different things.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: You think about everything about the Stanley craze. Yeah, it's
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: like they come up with a new color. Oh it's
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: an exclusive color.
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: Just because it's targetary popcorn buckets that are like two cents.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: People are going crazy for it.
• 12:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I only have like one Stanley per season, though
• 12:38
  Speaker 7: I don't know nuts I'm.
• 12:42
  Speaker 6: Of them.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but also you know, then people the same people
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: will turn around and yes, things are expensive gas and
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: the things are expensive. But how do you turn around
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: and then complain about things like that when you are
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: going out and getting New Trader Joe's totes like a dollar?
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Right even were the people who then go online and
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: buy them from the ebays and crazy for the people
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: who got them because you absolutely have to have them.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: So you pay this premium.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: For a tote, you have exempted yourself from complaining about
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: the cost of anything else.
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: Greg, I'll make a little argument also for it, because
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: Ward and I were talking about this the other day.
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: It's kind of maybe not even about that. It's about
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: the thrill of the hunt of getting it right now,
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: that's the disorder. But no, the take out that little
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: party you say that you actually need it, it's just
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: the the excitement of trying to find it, and.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: It's the thrill of the chase.
• 13:40
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Some people that's how they are in relationships or
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: with jobs. They they love the idea of like can
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: I get this job? Can I land this person with
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: a relationship, And they put all this effort and strategy
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: and everything else, and the getting is done, and then
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: once they get they go right the next one. It
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: was just all about that pursuit.
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: And yeah, And I think you're right because when my
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: mom went to Trader Joe's in Kansas and they were
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: just in a pile.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: She's like, do you want any of these?
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: I was like yeah.
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: She's like, I mean, okay, and amazing, nobody cares. Oh,
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: that's what I'm saying.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: Like, it wasn't guarded, there wasn't a line. She's like,
• 14:16

  Speaker 4: over this joke he made about the lion king and
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: like it had picked up a lot of steam really fast.
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: So he joked that the opening lyrics of circleed Life.

  Speaker 3: Apparently he said that translates to look, there's a lion.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: Oh my god.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: I have a clip from the podcast. So this is
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: where this whole thing stems from. That Zimbabwe. That's that's
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: by the way. A guy's name is learn More, which
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: I think is pretty learn more. I forget his last name,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: but he's from Africa, okay, And so he it was

  Speaker 1: this beautiful majestic there's a lion, and they have made
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: billions of all kids gonna call you.
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: Well, guess what.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Guess what? He was on stage doing his comedy show,
• 20:53

• 20:55
  Speaker 1: got served the lawsuit. You got served paper service from
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: what well.
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: From the writer of the song.

  Speaker 4: Oh, because the writer says it actually means all hail
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: the King, We all bow in the presence of the king.

• 21:12
  Speaker 4: seven million dollars, claiming the joke was a malicious depiction
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: that created a false narrative and is spitting on his

• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Everybody's lost their mind.

• 21:29
  Speaker 4: disruption of business relationships and hurting his royalties and the
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: comic now needs a lawyer and he can't believe this
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: is happening, Like he can't believe that this guy. And
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: I saw the interview with the writer and he was crying.

  Speaker 3: How could he say this?
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Like how could he make a joke traumatically? It was vagina?
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: I think crazy. It is time to retire guys.
