definitely like bought into his hype oh yeah anytime you've reduced yourself to wearing one outfit the whole time of your life that's i'm sorry sorry i'm sorry you've gotten there all right let's tell the people what's trending shall we yeah um liz mayor is trending uh like liz fair but with an m instead of the ph oh that's what it is yeah that's why it's trending no that's what i thought at first too oh but uh she's apparently, she's a political consultant and she is the latest bean dad. Hey, shitty parenting tips. Shitty parenting tips.

Wait, what was bean dad's thing? He was just like, my kid came home and was like, I'm hungry. And I like made her figure out like all the tools for opening a can of beans. But like that's right, the can of beans. The kid was really fucking hungry by it. It was like hour three, and the kid was like, I'm so hungry.

And he was like, well, you're going to have to figure this out then. How do you think this works? And so Liz has a less patient, but equally unkind way to teach my shit kid lesson.

She opened up with and her ratios are great. Her ratios. Oh, honey. These ratios. You could do Paris Fashion Week with those ratios. I have resorted to burning

Pokemon cards as a punishment when my kid doesn't do basic stuff he has to do. 496 replies, 856 retweets, 81 likes. And then like the basic stuff. Yeah. So I think she was like, oh, God, people think I'm just like talking about little stuff. No, the basic stuff is eating. He comes home without having eaten any of his lunch.

Card burnt. He doesn't eat enough dinner. Card burnt. Bear in mind, my kid is about 4'6", at age 7, and yet weighs less than 55 pounds. He needs to put some weight on, specifically muscle. Oh, fuck. Yo yo that poor child good you think she's saying you know i'd imagine she's done this thing which you can't say to kids like this right this kind

of logic it doesn't work because children are in a very different place developmentally that you can't go see the thing is son what you you seven you're about four foot six 55 pounds nah bro you're gonna need to bulk up is that small or tall or i'm not totally sure which that is six i was four nine in fourth grade right okay so four six isn't that's not he's i think what he's saying is this kid's a beanpole. Kid's a beanpole. Just say a beanpole, man. We don't know what 4'6, 7'55 works out to.

Yeah, I'm not some child football scout where I'm like, what's the dimensions? Yeah. Hold on. He's a strong safety at 4'6, 55. Okay. We'll have to put about 70 more pounds on him. 46, 55, 7 could be her ratios though, or multiple thereof. 46, 55, 7? Yeah yeah unless she's five two what was that the baby got back i forget the numbers but yeah something horrifying yeah so

sure burn the cards and cause them to be deeply upset and not understand why you're destroying their prized possessions yeah i wonder there was a line in avengers endgame where spoilers spoilers iron man but when he's not iron man uh some people call him tony stark i call him anthony stark wait he says do his way he's the iron man yeah sorry spoil i said spoilers man damn so he to iron man okay uh this makes sense down down down down uh and he says to his kid all right go to bed or else i'll sell all your toys uh and i think it was like supposed to be funny and quippy and like maybe that is like part of what that's what she's going for but she's actually burning his cards i mean i'm saying don't love it sell them liz because you ain't got tony stark money let's be real tony stark you have to sell shit he could just throw them shits away and be a cool parent you're

burning them too and i i fuck a mu2 you burnt that shit okay she. She doubles down to be like, God, look, it's not a bad thing. The basic stuff is eating, and I'm supposed to feed my kid, right? But then it goes in this really fucked up direction about just force feeding him because he needs to

put on muscle like a fucking Pop Warner football coach. Yeah, or like a racehorse yeah yeah yeah pokemon fucking pokemon racehorse yeah i don't know what liz mayer is uh thinking here but i mean like i get i'm sure i don't have kids but i'm i'm around kids who you know sometimes people are like yeah uh they don't want to eat or they're picky about eating. Yeah. I've never seen someone say, oh, yeah, watch me destroy your shit.

Now you want to eat now, huh? Yeah. Okay. Just let him eat when he's hungry. Yeah. Netflix is trending because they have the hits just keep coming with Netflix. They fired an employee who helped organize the trans employee walkout that's coming up on wednesday they claim that they fired her because she leaked like data about how much they paid for the special even though everybody already knew that a long time ago and uh the

viewership data but it's it's actually she had like sent that internally talking to other people when voicing her displeasure about you know what Netflix was doing and then that got leaked her emails and so it's clear like what the fuck is going on here

they are sounds like a bit of retaliation anyways fuck Netflix fuck their ceo all his statements where he's just digging his ass deeper um and looking for yeah we'll talk a little bit more about it on monday but uh what an asshole and uh harm is not just a physical violence just so people you know when people want to talk new all the critics like i wish people got nuance you know then they wouldn't be so mad about this yeah maybe you could understand the nuance of

of things that are hate speech and uh robert pat pattinson is trending because that people are going wild over his voice uh as the new batman uh but should we play it for him okay it's just a six second clip and there's like a loud thunder strike so don't fucking like get all nervous here we go it's not just a signal it's a warning i that is a spot on impression and we will leave it to you the listener to determine how that holds against the source material it's not just a signal against the source material it's not just a signal it's a warning it's a warning it's not i on it felt like they put a little reverb in there little yeah on the warning just to give like they doubled down a little bit presence maybe some stereo spreading yeah but um you know that's what do you think of that i uh i'm a big pattinson fan um oh yeah you patty daddy i'm patty daddy and i don't really like i i don't think they've like really

batman begins was dope like but batman wasn't the best part of anything since then i don't know man i'm just like i mean i'm interested to see what he does as a bruce wayne um but the acting that happens inside the bat suit is pretty boring to me so i don't know this isn't the thing that i'm excited about seeing i'm excited about seeing him be a rich spoiled shithead yeah yeah i i mean like i think i guess everyone has a mandate to be somewhat scraggly nose and be like it's not just a signal it's a warning it doesn't sound over like it doesn't sound junkyard dog ish. It just sounds a little more. Yeah.

But whatever. Christian Bale was going like full like, what the fuck's going on here? Okay, relax. But yeah. And I feel like he's got a little more aggro as it went along. Just kind of lost, got lost on the sauce of the bat voice. Yeah, man. It happens. Yeah. Hey, we've all been there, you know? as it went along just kind of lost got lost on the sauce of the bat voice yeah man it happens yeah hey we've all been there you know um all right let's take a quick break and we'll be right back

i've been thinking about you i want you back in my life it's too late for that i have a proposal for you. Come up here and document my project. All you need to do is record everything like you always do. One session. 24 hours. BPM 110. 120.

She's terrified. Should we wake her up? Absolutely not. What was that? You didn't figure it out? I think i need to hear you say it that was live audio of a woman's nightmare this machine is approved and everything you're allowed to be doing this we passed the review board a year ago we're not hurting people there's nothing dangerous about what you're doing they're're just dreams.

Hi, I'm Akilah Hughes, and I'm so excited about my new podcast, Rebel Spirit, where I head back to my hometown in Kentucky and try to convince my high school to change their racist mascot, the Rebels, into something everyone in the South loves, the Biscuits.

I was a lady rebel. Like, what does that even mean? The Boone County Rebels will stay the Boone County Rebels with the image of the Biscuits. It's right here in black and white in France. A lion. An individual that came to the school saying that God sent him to talk to me about the mascot switch. As a leader, you choose hills that you want to die on. Why would we want to be the losing team? I'd just take all the other stuff out of it. Segregation academies. When civil rights said that we need to integrate public schools, these charter schools were exempt from that.

Bigger than a flag or mascot. You have to be ready for serious backlash. Listen to Rebel Spirit on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, everyone.

And the Capitol Police are trending

because a 25-year vet of the U.S. Capitol Police is now facing obstruction of justice charges over allegations they tried to cover up crimes related to the January 6th insurrection straight up message somebody on facebook and said quote some message to some other insurrectionist that was posting shit on facebook quote i'm a capital police officer who agrees with your political stance whoa um and And then it said, take down the part about being in the building.

They are currently investigating and everyone who is in the building is going to be charged. Just looking out. Hey. Just looking out, man. Hey. Shout out to that. What a pal.

Like a good neighbor. Racist cops are there. um yeah just letting you know just letting you know hey i'm on the inside letting you know probably delete that shit also got to delete this and that's what happened this dude then deleted his own shit like his own facebook messages to cover his tracks um so yeah i mean it is it is the level of like insider info that you would expect from a dipshit of this degree of dipshittery like hey don't uh openly admit to being in the building also yeah like it's like don't admit to the crime crime because they're looking for people who admit to the crime. They're like, oh shit, good looking out, man. And what's this fucking weird camaraderie?

Like, hey, just a good Samaritan here. Pop it in. But hey, that's, you know. That is about what we expect. Yeah, I mean, we saw the selfie. We saw the dude flick it up with the oh yeah many many people just uh people who are peacefully carrying a flag through the building yes uh golden showers are trending uh golden showers fill the room trump has uh come on unprompted in a private

speech at the national republican senatorial committee uh and said i'm not into golden showers you know the great thing we just asked about your fiscal pot what a great first lady that one she said i don't believe that one um which is already uh you know so he's he wants to talk about like how he's into just the the normal stuff you know but he also wants you to imagine him uh bonin uh she didn't believe that one mostly because we haven't been into imagine 17 years right you know that that is one of the best uh sort of sourced anecdotes about him is from a sex worker he paid to spend the night with him she came to his hotel room and he just went upstairs to watch tv uh and then came down like i was like all right we're we're good here um so

shout out to that man also uh bill clinton inadvertently forcing us to imagine him having sex because uh he hit the hospital. Anytime an ex-president is in the hospital, the mainstream media has to fill those minutes. He was in the hospital, but then we had to find out it was because of a UTI.

Growth. It happens. Mostly, it's not for the penis-ha typically but uh yeah he's uh had to go shit was i guess enough to be hospitalized yeah but his like heart is like made of like construction paper so i feel like anything is like a terrible threat to his life yeah he's definitely one of those people who shouldn't have gone vegan because like he looks frail as fuck like he oh you're on that program hey bro you liz the mid liz mayor program hey you need to bulk up

full now that that's what i'm saying yeah somebody should uh burned some of the cards in his black maybe he needs to go maybe he needs to go hit up this next restaurant to get some proper protein on thank you finally salt bay is trending where bill clinton needs to eat but also uh trending because someone racked up a fifty thousand dollar bill at the restaurant uh and they're complaining i don't get it what's wrong it's just i don't know it's it's one of those things that looks like a humble brag flex post because this person is taking a picture. They went to the Nusret Steakhouse in London and racked up a 37,000 pound British pounds sterling bill, which is around 50,000 US dollars or Amaro's gasoline dollars. and the i mean first of all they bought two bottles of like uh nine thousand nine hundred dollar wine uh on top of like you know all kinds just all kinds of fucking ridiculous

alcohol purchases they did buy one golden tomahawk steak that's like a like over a thousand bucks and some other shit but really they went in on these other fucking stupid ass bottles of champagne and other shit and like the person just put like they took a picture of the receipt and it's like oh that's just taking the piss in it and um i don't know i mean when you look at that i'm like why the fuck are you people still eating there why the fuck are people like this also like money a fucking ten thousand dollar bottle of liquid right what are you huh and i get it you know that's what you got that's what you got but i'll say willing to admit it just like they think it's

a cool thing to well right exactly be like huh right i mean we've all been there come on now you gotta be shitting me here is the american translation up and spent 50k on a one steak that had gold on it uh but i mean he's this dude has restaurants like everywhere now the one in la i know is has, it feels like sometimes it's really popping and other times you could just walk in and they're like, thank you so much for coming in. Do you know Salt Bae?

He's not here, but we will have someone else put salt on it off of their forearm if you'd like. But yeah, I think it's just, this meme has turned into this whole other thing now. He's also been accused of some health code violations, which shouldn't be shocking if you've seen him

handle meat with his bare hands. Yeah. But apparently he's very litigious, so all we can say is... Fuck you. I mean, allegedly. Yeah. There you go. Nailed it. Perfect dism Yeah. There you go. Nailed it.

Perfect dismount. Thank you. All right. That is going to do it for this whole week. We are back on Monday with a whole episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other. Be kind to yourselves. Get the vaccine.

Don't do nothing about white supremacy. And we will talk to y'all on Monday. Bye. Bye. Kay hasn't heard from her sister in seven years. I have a proposal for you. Come up here and document my project. All you need to do is record everything like you always do. What was that? That was live audio of a woman's nightmare. Can Kay trust her sister or is history repeating itself? There's nothing dangerous about what you're doing.
