Listen to look back at it on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. When a group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist, they take matters into their own hands. I vowed. I will be his last target.

But the pregnancy appeared to be a hoax. You doctored this particular test twice in so much, correct?

I doctored the test ones. It took an army of internet detectives to uncover a disturbing pattern. Two more men who'd been through the same. thing. Greg Gillespie and Michael Mancini. My mind was blown. I'm Stephanie Young. This is Love Trapped.

Hello, the internet, and welcome to this episode of Big Mama's Trend. That one courtesy of Vanadium Silver on the Discord. I would have also accepted Martrend which I believe Vanadium Silver

suggested down below but we've had some conversations about Martin Lawrence and what a talent he is a profound talent is shenay in the room with us right now Martin

did he ever go on inside the actor's studio Chenane in particular Yeah. Just, it's shenan in the room with us. I'm thrilled to be joined in our guest spot today by Polonium, Pahlaby Gunali.

My zeit gaze brings all the boys to the yard, and they're like, this news is better than yours. Damn, it's better than yours. I could pod you, but I'd have to charge. Damn, you just burnt a perfectly good, AKA on a trending episode. I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it. Rookie mistake. For somebody who's poisoned miles and burnt down his house and did all these things, you should know not to.

I'm an overachiever. What can I tell you? I'm making up for all the times I didn't do it. It's wonderful to have you here for this lovely day of news. Just when you thought things could possibly be, we might be headed for a nice win. Democracy strikes back. and we're like, well, they've fucked this up and now everybody hates Republicans

and they're going to lose. The Supreme Court comes through and fucks it all up and makes it so that they have an unfair advantage. We'll get to that. But first, Pallavi, of course, we have to talk about the funniest news of the day, which is that Amazon wants to do a reboot of The Apprentice

starring. Did you hear this? No. Donald Trump Jr. Oh. My. Yes. Oh,

there is, he's going to have so much cocaine in his writer. Exactly. I, this is, I got to get my Mel Robbins on here and say, let them, honey,

let them, let them do this. This is like, the most first of all he couldn't be he's the most uncharismatic human being

that I've ever seen on camera his two ways skills are making people hate him by doing not just like by being himself he has like what whatever like charismatic people have he has the opposite of that

like just by being in a room with him you're like ugh That's why him and J.D. Vance, that's why he's like, he's like, saw something in J.D. Vance that was just like himself. And it's that feeling of like, ooh. I think J.D. Vance is like, one of the worst. Like, yes, makes your skin crawl immediately. I think he's so much more charismatic than Donald Trump, Jr. The other thing he has is a unique inability to hide the fact that he's on cocaine. Like, he, nobody, he is an open book when the mess. of that book is I'm on cocaine right now. His eyes like get very glassy.

He's got like the most evident cocaine eyes ever. His personality like still sucks but like he just... Do you think do you think he's going to get the line wrong and he's going to be like, I'm fired.

Oh shit. Sorry, Dad. This should have been, this is such a bad idea. This should have actually been pitched by Democrats. Just to keep them busy. Maybe you got cocaine eyes. There's Kersie, Brian the editor.

I feel the magic inside. Your cocaine eyes. Anyways, Amazon is doing this because for the same reason they did the Melania documentary. Apparently they were also talking about doing a Donald Trump

documentary that never happened. But they just keep making projects that are going to appeal to Trump's ego, which is discouraging because it does feel like this is the sort of thing that would take a couple years to make. And they're apparently long on the Trump administration. I was hoping that at some point they'd be like, oh, this guy's going to, like, die or be out of office in the next couple of years. But no, they're still doing the elaborate.

bribs. So we'll see. Wild. Wild that we think that appealing to his ego will help in any way, form or fashion, given that everyone has already done that. And we're in a war with Iran.

Like, at what point? Well, they don't mind. They're making, it's making rich people richer. So they're good with that. Ugh. That is what I say to the world in generally. Rit. large. I do. I broadly gesture

at everything and go all right. We should talk about the Supreme Court dealing a death blow to the Voting Rights Act. The conservative justices of the court have taken... So fucked up. Taking all ability

for people, for the Voting Rights Act to be like to have any force. They've just, they've defanged it to death. It's essentially dead. They said that lawmakers drawing maps in Louisiana to give minority populations representation. Can't do that. Essentially, the majority opinion holds that racism is over in the United States when it comes to elections.

So we no longer need the voting rights act. And they've, so this is basically like rolled back civil rights like insanely. It's sickening. They've already like suspended the May 16th primary election. in Louisiana in order to disenfranchise black votes that have already been put through. Like, it's insane. Yeah, they're like, this is basically they're like, all right, y'all can do whatever you want. It's just open season for racist legislation, like do whatever you want.

Which, by the way, is what they're legislating. Like, that's one thing that, you know, people are pointing out is that like, by doing something based on their opinion on the state of society, like the Supreme Court is technically not supposed to do that. And their whole argument is they've been getting more and more conservative is like, I just call balls and strikes about the law and the legality. And then in this opinion, they're like, as we can see from the way that the world works today, racism is over, which like you're, I don't know.

But again, it just feels like mask off. like they keep taking they keep taking the masks off there it's like a Scooby-Doo double double twist ending I read parts of both like the majority and minority opinion and I have a hypothetical question that we can cut from the pot

if we need to when are we allowed to incite violence you're writing an essay on why black people can't vote fuck you like what do you mean yeah this is like like taking to the streets like what is what do we do yeah what do we do um

this is from Kagan's dissent it was born of the literal blood of union soldiers and civil rights marchers it ushered in awe-inspiring change bringing this nation closer to fulfilling the ideals of democracy and racial equity and it has been repeatedly and overwhelmingly reauthorized by the people's

representatives in Congress only they have the right to say it is no longer needed, not the members of this court. I dissent then from this latest chapter in the majority's now completed demolition of the voting rights act. So pretty, pretty clear. She's, it's so crazy to me. I was watching this court, or I don't know if he was a correspondent, or just someone, I think on CNN, who is expressing his anger about this and he still had to be really measured and it's so frustrating like i don't want to speak on behalf of black people obviously but like just as an outside observer seeing how much they've had to fight for everything and they're at

the forefront of every cause only for them to be like left behind when even the left is thinking about strategic moves is so disappointing and they have foreseen every like like terrible outcome of not organizing politically and just are consistently not listened to and are treated as just like a voting bloc every four years. You know, it's so shitty. Brian says speaking for all black or for black people here, all y'all suck. It's true. We fucking do.

Right. We are not, there's not a black person on this pod right now that's, Brian doesn't have a voice. Brian, speak up. That's right. We specifically cut his mic for this one. Cut his mic, I said. to him because he's that of the show.

Yeah. It's incredibly frustrating. And they're using it immediately. They're using it immediately. They've already, like slavery is already legal

and it's already obviously disproportionately affecting black people in prison, which is how they're, they legalize it. And now I'm like, are they just going to do it? Like, like,

we thought they we thought they wouldn't drop Roe v. Wade. We thought they wouldn't drop the voting rights. Like, they're doing everything they can to profit off of other people, especially black people, like black people in particular. Yeah. Um, so this is, we, we were wondering, like, how does Trump get out of this spot that he's in where he's facing a referendum? And this is definitely going to make it harder for, uh, Democrats to take over and, you know, hold him to account. in Congress. The Supreme Court is, it's not a, it's not an accident that, I mean, it is an accident, but it is appropriate that Supreme and white supremacy, you know, have the same word in it because they have been a instrument for white supremacy for years and years. And even when they do a little, give us a little one, they're like, okay, we'll, we'll make it so that Donald Trump can't actually call himself the king of America and shoot someone in the streets, uh, as he's requesting.

That's less damage than what they've already done. They're killing, they're killing black people. Like, they're just killing black people now. And they've been killing up, like, everybody in the streets with ice. Like, anything that he says or does that's anecdotal or individual, I think is obviously a distraction. We've stopped talking about the Epstein files. What the fuck?

Yeah. Yeah. And to Brian's question, what the fuck was Congress going to do? Not a whole lot as long as the opposition party is the Democrats. With their monkey pawed fingers. Fucking Mitch McConnell, another monkey paw finger curls as he continues to live another day. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. He's still like he started just having like the rainbow wheel of death. spinning years ago and he's still out here breathing. And, uh, yeah, well, all right, let's, let's take a quick break. We'll come back.

We'll talk about the Loveland Frogman, Ohio's submission for their official cryptid status. We'll be right back. Interesting. Hey, Ontario. Come on down to bed MGM casino and check out our newest exclusive. The price is right fortune pick. Don't miss out.

Easter. And on my podcast, 2%, I break down the science of mental toughness, fitness, and building resilience in our strange modern world. I'll be speaking with writers, researchers, and other health and fitness experts, and more to look past the impractical and way too complex pseudoscience that dominates the wellness industry. We really believe that seed oils were inherently inflammatory. We got it wrong. Many of the problems that we are freaked out about in the world are the result of stress. Put yourself through some hardships and you will come out on the other side a happier, more fulfilled, healthier person. Listen to 2%.

where you're saying. Yep, that's me, Cliver Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or or my career in sports media. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined. And now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, The Clifford Show. This is a place for raw, unfiltered conversations

with some of your favorite athletes, creators, and voices that not only deserve to be heard, but celebrated. One week, I'll take you behind the scenes of the biggest moments in sports and entertainment, and the next we'll talk about life, mental health, purpose, and even music. The Clifford Show isn't just a podcast. It's a space.

Do you remember when Diana Ross double-tap Little Kim's boobs at the VMAs? Or when Kanye said that George Bush didn't like black people. I know what you're thinking. What the hell does George Bush got to do a little kill? Well, you can find out on the Look Back at it podcast. I'm Sam Jay. And I'm Alex English. Each episode, we pick it here, unpack what went down, and try to make sense of how we survived it.

Including a recent episode with Mark Lamont Hill waxing all about crack in the 80s. To be clear, 84 is big to me, not just because of crack. I'm down to talk about crack on day, but just so you all know. I mean, at this point, Mark, this is the second episode where we've discussed crack. so I'm starting to see that there's a through line. We also have AIDS on the table right now. Thank you for finishing that sentence. I don't think there's a more important year for black people.

Really? Yeah. For me, it's one of the most important years for black people in American history. Listen to look back at it on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And let's talk about cryptids. Let's talk about it. Let's talk about it.

Let's talk about cryptids, maybe. So Ohio's state house is focusing on the important things. First of all, not a real state. Ohio? One of the real estates there is. Ohio state of mind. Making the, so they're trying to make the Loveland Frogman, the state's official cryptid.

First of all, I didn't realize states had official cryptids, but apparently they're trying to make it a thing. California is 2025. AB 666 tried and failed to make Bigfoot their official cryptid. Okay, I was like, what in the mountain line naming scheme is that? I know. I think it was named by edge lords who are like, I'm into cryptids. That's kind of my thing.

But anyways, I just want to read directly from the bill because I started it being like, this is stupid as fuck. And then by the end of this excerpt, I was like, I think I'm on board. The legendary and beloved amphibious creature known as the Loveland frog or Loveland Frog Man first reported in the 1950s and said to inhabit the banks of the Little Miami River near Loveland, Ohio, described as a frog-like bipedal creature standing approximately four feet tall, which has inspired books, documentaries, local festivals, artwork, merchandise, local tourism, encrypted enthusiasts and researchers. God, they love a fucking run-on sentence and has contributed to the local economy, creative culture, and unique cultural identity and oral history of this state

is hereby adopted as the official state cryptic. Another fun fact about the Loveland Frogman. He is the first uncle of the W.B. Frog. Mm-hmm. Yes. A lot of people don't know that. It's a lot of nepotism going on. Yeah. Wikipedia's artistic rendering of the Loveland frog shows at scale compared to humans.

I like the little, it's in the same pose with its arms out. Yeah. It's like separated. He kind of has the body posture of a dog when the dog is taking a shit, you know? I was going to say a lot of software engineers, but that makes it seem even worse when you put it right next to that. So they're just kind of short little guys, not so short. You would still be completely freaked out by seeing them short for a man. I don't know.

I'd dapp them up. Terrifyingly big for a frog. But yeah, he also looks surprised, perpetually surprised with his hands out in front of him. I'm imagining him in a suit. Also, I feel like that's the size of a regular frog in Australia. Right, right. There's just an Australian frog. This is just American.

That's not a frog. This is a frog. This is a frog. This started. originated from the 195 story of a traveling salesman seeing figures standing on their hind legs being about three to four feet tall

having frog faces and leathery skin. Guaranteed that traveling salesman just licked a frog and then came up with this story. So high. We do have some explanation. A police officer spotted the frogman again in 1972. A couple weeks later, another police officer

spotted the frog man and shot it immediately. Jesus. Turned out to be. a pet iguana missing its tail. We're horrible. Why would you shoot a creature? It's a mysterious animal that makes me question everything I know. Let me shoot it immediately.

This is why the aliens know about us and they're skipping our planet. There's no way. They're like, there's too many guns on this planet. It's it is interesting to like think about it as just like a piece of culture, though. That's what I like about. Bill. Yeah. They describe it as like, you know, something that's inspired books, documentaries, local

festivals, artwork, merchandise, local tourism, encrypted, enthusiasts, and researchers. I love them why people have hobbies, that's not oppression. You know? It's a fun little thing. Keep a busy. But it does somehow turn into a thing about it. They're all armed.

Yeah. As they're like, we're like, we're going to use the frogs for our militia. Yeah. All right, let's get through some other news stories. Iran's soccer team is being blocked from attending a World Cup event. And Donald Trump recently suggested that FIFA should replace Iran's soccer team with Italy's for the World Cup, despite the fact that Italy didn't qualify.

And Iran actually did qualify. But FIFA rejected that idea. The Canadian immigration officials in Toronto just blocked the Iranian. team from entering the country for a FIFA Congress meeting in Vancouver. Riley Gaines is somewhere rooting for Italy. She's like, they came in fifth and they should go

to first. Don't ask me why. Because Donald Trump likes them and that's the only reason. Yeah, so I don't know. Well, they're still figuring this one out. Back to the world of cryptids. Open AI. Did you see the story about OpenAI

and Goblins? So OpenAI recently posted the open sourcing for Codex CLI, OpenAI's most recent flagship coding agent. I don't really know what most of that means. But it didn't take long for some people to notice that it contained a prompt for chat GPT 5.5 to quote, never talk about goblins, gremlins, raccoons, trolls, ogres, pigeons, or other animals or creatures, unless it is absolutely and unambiguously relevant to the user's query. What? Yeah.

Why? They just can't. So, that detail and your question, why? Quickly went viral in response to OpenAI published a blog post explaining that when their GPT 5.1 launched in November, users complained about specific verbal tics, namely that it wouldn't shut the fuck up about goblins, gremlins, and other... That is so funny.

Gremlin references rose by 52%. Not that bad. Well, mentioning goblins shot up 175%. Seems like too many goblins. Some people are saying that this might be on account of like they're being... Chad GPD being inherently racist. And Goblin is...

is a like coded anti-Semitic term. And then Raccoon obviously is a coded, uh, anti-black racist term. I thought it was just fun and quirky and then it's always racist. It's always, man, the company's not,

the company is blaming the trend on their personality customization feature, uh, specifically the nerdy personality. They turn the silicon nerd all the way up and the knob for racist turns all the way up simultaneously. Right. They're like, wait, what? You're like, what?

Why is this going? The nerdy personality was encouraged to undercut pretension through playful use of language because the world is complex and strange and its strangeness must be acknowledged, analyzed, and enjoyed. And because of how reinforcement learning can work, they discovered that the nerdy personality loves goblins and that that transferred to other parts of its models.

Whatever. Whatever, man. I'm, it's all racist. Brian wanted me to be happier for the second half and I'm going back to racism again. Yeah, Brian pointed out, this is the least favorite part of AI is the personality, which truly, like we have a little Amazon echo thing in our kitchen that I've tried to remove multiple times. But my family's like, no, we like to. Oh, I thought you meant it. It just comes back in mysteriously. I'm just, I don't know. I think it's, I think it's, I think.

it's inhabited. It's like broken into my children's brain. They're like, I like being able to you're like, grandpa's in there. Set a timer. Set a timer. Yeah, it is, it is convenient for that. You'd be like when you're cooking, you can be like set a 15 minute timer for oven. Set a five minute timer for stove. Set a five year timer for climate change to destroy us all. Sam Altman has been joking about it on Twitter, but worth remembering this is the same guy who said that chat GPT was an essential tool for looking after babies. Also, when you say like these guys joke, they're not capable of that. They don't know how to do that.

And I think that is the problem. The worst part, the thing that most people can't deal with, like, hate about these AIs and that is like causing them all of the problems is like the personality quirks, the thing where it's like, okay, what's up? fuck face like you know like has like that energy like coming in

like yeah you think you're so like that it's just like whatever keeps calling me fuck face it's like it's bringing in like a flirtation that everyone's like

kind of put off by or some people apparently like desperately need it yeah and they like I think the fact that they don't have personalities of their own

or the ability to like interact with people at a way that is human and humane and normal. Like that is the magic of the thing. They're like, whoa. This thing, like, did, like, all you have to do is look at, like,

Elon Musk on the Joe Rogan show, like, just playing jokes from his grok over and over again and just, like, laughing his ass off. It's like, yeah, no, this is what it, it's just there as a thing to fill in where they have no personality. Yes. Also, I do want to say we, Disney Channel original movie Smarthouse predicted this decades ago, and we should have listened, okay?

There is a downside to technology where it will try to kidnap you and your children and make you fall in love with it. Is that what Smart House does? No spoilers. Yes. Yeah. So it's a house that has its own personality, but the personality, it turns out, is like personhood. Yeah. Yeah.

It's terrifying and it's so true. Yeah. Wow. Such a dumb future. Like of all the movies that it could have been, it's like a Disney Channel, sci-fi thing, is the future that we ended up with.

That and then like every movie about dystopia. Yeah. All right. We want to talk about the Donald Trump Crypto Empire. It's another, it's just, it's like not going well. The day of the White House correspondent dinner,

he had a gathering for top holders of his meme coin, which is not doing well. It's down, and I think this is bad, even in his percentages, where things can be like up and down like 600%. But his meme coin is down 96% since January, 2025, which that seems bad, right?

This is like Logan Paul numbers, right? Or was it Justin Bieber, who's NFT fell or something? thing, I don't know. Yeah, yeah. He's putting up Bieber numbers, but not early Bieber numbers, late stage Bieber numbers. He's got late stage Bieber fever. But he is, so he threw a party on the day of the White House correspondent's dinner, complete with lunchtime speaker Mike Tyson.

Mike, what's happening? What is happening? Please stop. Free trading cards and perfume for attendees. I don't know. I don't know. I don't have an explanation for the Mike Tyson thing. I have an explanation.

There was a transfer of energy during the Jake Paul fight. And now Mike Sikes in has been taken over. Is it the big-switching Friday? Jake Paul fight. Yeah. Guests were invited only if they won a convoluted contest that involved gaining points by buying up Trump's coins and then holding on to them. Every hour that they didn't sell gave them an additional point.

So yes, this is like a very convoluted thing. I think we all owe pyramid schemes and apology based on how stupid and convoluted and little this makes sense. Pyramid schemes are just like America's next top model. You want to be on top? And that's the only way you can make it. Right. Yeah, exactly. Yeah.

That might be only his second. The one that's down 96% might be his second worst. Crypto Grift because he also has his family Crypto Grift, which is World Liberty Financial that they launched together in 2024, which is a crypto platform that advertises itself as the alternative to woke banks that are clearly just for financial elites. Donald Trump doesn't even know what a, like, Baron had to teach him what a wallet is. So Barron is a regular wallet because this man only holds gold bars. That's right. Barron is also on there as like a co-founder

one of the founders of Liberty Bank. Sorry, I'm still thinking about Edward Goldbar's hands. Trump's like, that's his critique of Edward Cisor Hands. Why is his hands not gold bars? Scissors aren't worth shit. Should be Edward Gold Bar's hands.

Yeah. That's a really good pitch. but one of the companies only digital assets has lost 50% of its value since January and people are now suspicious of like some loans that they've gotten from weirdly like from very friendly places and like valuations and like it all it all just seems like even in the world of crypto people are like oh this seems this seems like bullshit I actually do empathize with crypto because I've also lost 50% of my my value.

Very short amount of time. Yes. Since January, I think we're all. It's all gone downhill. Not unlike most of our collective spirits. Yeah. 96% since January 2025. Yep.

But yeah, I don't know. It just seems like a thing that is blatantly a rug pull over and over again. Like that seems to be what the entire business model of this is. They also, I think a lot of their, evaluation was like came from a $500 million infusion of cash from Shik Tanun bin Zayyad al-Nayon, the brother and national security advisor to the UAE. And my password. Good luck getting in.

Assholes. Also, good luck getting in to you. You can't remember it ever. I know I'm like, damn it. I'm late for TDZ. But he gave them $500 million four days before the inauguration in 2025. So that's the sort of thing we're dealing with on the crypto front. It just feels like it's all a way to legalize corruption.

Are we the baddies? Are we the bad guys? Wait a second. Always. Brian the editor says, business model, yoink, business plan, give me that exit strategy,

smoke bomb. I think that's right. We're living in the monorail episode of the Simpsons. Yeah, exactly. Over and over and over and over again. My business plan, you're going to watch this episode of The Simpsons. Paula Viginalan, such a pleasure having you. Jack O'Brien, thank you for having me. Where can people find you, follow you all that good stuff? I'm at Paula Vigna Allen, P-A-L-A-V-I-G-U-N-A-L-N. Come to my Netflix as a joke show, May 4th, Monday, 10 p.m. Hotel Cafe.

Aparnan-N-Charla. So and another guest spot, too. So a couple more guest spots. But you are, every minute that the show is not sold out, you are taking a joke away. Yeah. Yeah, there's a stack of jokes on the table.

And I'm starting with Mahanids because he's the man. That's right. He's going to just have to get out there and not say anything funny. If you guys don't hurry up and sell this shit out. But still. Amazing. Go do that. Show out, Zite Gang.

That's going to do it for this afternoon. We are back tomorrow with the whole last episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other. Be kind to yourself. Get your vaccines way you still can. Get your flu shots. Don't do nothing about white supremacy. And we will talk to y'all tomorrow.
