How do you feel about this, kids? 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? It's right here in black and white in print. It's bigger than a flag or mascot. It's right here in black and white in print.

Hello, the internet, and welcome to this episode of Robin Hood Trends Insights. That is courtesy of CWGVO on the Discord, and courtesy of that being Miles' favorite spoof move. One of them. Yeah. It's again, you know why I got it? That was one of the first movies I got in the Columbia house movie scam.

Yeah. You know what I mean? When you sent in the stamps. It's the right age for you as well. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You have FOMO.

I have SPOMO spoof movies. Come over to my house and watch them. Um, I'm Jack killing it as always and that over there well that is miles gray the sheriff of rottingham so trump uh have you seen this you heard about this i heard about this he went to court pled not guilty to 37 counts and went home yeah cool yeah that's cool you get to go home after that so a lot of eyes were on the crowd to see like if we're getting jan 6 vibes or what's going on and seems inconclusive like at first people were like the media is outnumbering the protesters

but it really like actually when you hear the description of the event, like sounds like the, like exterior of the Michael Jackson courtrooms, like they're just like, they're fanning out. Yeah. Yeah. They're just like,

they sang happy birthday because his birthday is tomorrow, I guess. Um, it's turned 77, by the way, it's the new, many are saying it's the new beast. Yeah. Uh, but yeah, I, I think way. It's the new, many are saying it's the new 30. Mark of the Beast. Yeah.

But yeah, I think people are just, you know, we'll talk more about it tomorrow, but it's truly uncharted territories. Yeah. I think the most violent thing was the guy who had a pig head on like a spike who was walking around. Yeah.

And it turned out he was just there independent of the- Oh yeah, he was promoting his butcher business. Yeah. So, yeah, we dig into that a little bit more on tomorrow's episode. But yeah, all that to say there was no, like, it was not calamitous outside. It was not. And I think that was the thing most people were like,

what the fuck's gonna happen on that day? But again, it's different because they don't have the entire apparatus of the media and donors being like, yeah, we'll bust people out. Yeah, let's fucking keep saying this and that. That's what I'm saying. As this trial gains momentum, you could see it coming to an inflection point as his situation becomes more dire. I think right now it's a little too abstract for them to pull the violence lever.

pull the violence lever i don't have the i do not have the imaginative apparatus to like have any idea what it what this is going to be like no you know because it's not just a former president people are like unprecedented that it's a former president it's that he is going to be the fucking nominee they have no way to stop him from being the nominee that I'm aware of. So it's going to be a mess. Hey, don't count Tim Scott out too soon, man. I mean, you know, it's not going to be DeSantis, I'll say that much. Nah. Alright, some Croc

collabs are dropping on all of our asses. Hell yeah. Wait, do you have Crocs for the record? For the record, I do not have any Crocs. My kids have Crocs. They love them? They do.

Okay. Yeah. I just want to get the pulse of the youth. They love to wear them and have them on 20% of the time that they're wearing them and just kick them 30 feet. Yeah, yeah. They're fun to do that with. Whatever place we're at. Into the street. yeah they're fun to do that with whatever place we're at into the street but

they're resilient anyways uh i had high hopes for the croco bells uh the taco bell croc yeah like definitely could have been cool there's some unofficial taco bell crocs out there uh that that are a lot of fun and you know we we could have on this podcast designed some that would have been cool like we were just talking about how they should have looked like they were made of gordita and yeah like like you want to wear you want to wear a gordita crunch yes crunch wrap supreme i don't know whatever i want to i want i want it to be baja blast blue yeah baja blast blue on these straps and then it looks and feels like you've just stepped your foot into a gordita these are just a shower shoe for coffee yeah they just made adidas slides with the taco bell logo yeah i'm sorry i'm sorry guys you got it you have

to do better than that if i'm gonna debase myself by wearing Taco Bell logos in public, you've got to come correct. Yeah. There's also a 7-Eleven Croc. That one's better. Yeah, it's much better. They got jibbits, at least. It looks like a Croc, first of all. I don't know why the Croco Bells look like slides.

Because they're using a different Croc model. They're using the Mellow Slide. We don't like the mellow slide we want the classic claw yes 7-eleven just went classic clog the famed 7-eleven color way of orange and green and uh put it on like a black base and very classic croc clog and i mean the baubles just jibbitzgle the imagination, the jibbits. Yeah. Yeah.

There's going to be so many fun things to do with that. You just need a base that doesn't distract and looks like a crock. Yeah, exactly. But whatever. Croco Bell, good luck to you. You're usually okay at the collabs, man. The Doritos collab is still, I think, the best collab we've gotten in the world of major brands holding hands. Yeah, this fan is holding back, though.

Sorry. Yeah. There's a new Pink interview in which... The artist Pink? I wasn't aware that Pink concerts, the artist Pink, for a while now, her concerts are just her like being flung through the air. Like it's,

it's wild. It's like watching, have you ever seen like one of those slingshot rides that, Oh yeah. Like at a, like a, like outside the Vegas strip or those ones where people always black out and shit on them.

Yeah. It's like that. Except she's going except she's going She's going from one side like the stage on one side of the stadium all the way up to like the upper echelons of the complete other side

of the football field soccer pitch sized stadium like in seconds and people are like, so it seems like it seems like your uh aerial work has taken uh has taken the foreground of your live performances yeah why are you like that that's not necessarily what people are coming to your shows for um and her answer was basically like yeah, it's just fun as hell. Yeah.

Like she says in the interview, my mom was like, are you ever going to stay on the ground? I was like, yeah, I'm going to stand there and lip sync. Sure. That sounds fun. No. Why would I stay on the ground if I don't have to? It's really fun. It's really physical.

It's really hard. It keeps me engaged and it keeps me humble. That is where I differ. I'm with Pink up to that point. You don't want anything physical? Yeah, the physical part. That is not something that I'm interested in. The idea that it

keeps her humble, that would make me feel like a god on earth. I would not be able to keep, if I could just like stand there in front of, you know, thousands, probably tens of thousands of,

you know, adoring fans and then just like fly through the air. Yeah. Incredible Superman, like speeds. I think, I think the humility isn't coming from that though, Jack.

I think the humility comes from thinking, Oh, I'm going to body this slingshot stunt. And then you do it and you're like, oh my god. And then there's just a comet tail of shit coming up. Yeah. You're like, I can't even flip once without shitting myself.

And you're like, that was humbling. You know, I realized I had to put some work in to be able to do it. Again, the way this clip is on Twitter, it's so amazing to see her on stage. What is she saying here? Oh, and then she, it's man, that's called production value. All right, pink. Yeah, it's, it's pretty cool.

Um, uh, I did not know, but I am currently in the market to, uh, check out a pink show. Just watch someone have the most fun that somebody can possibly have producer brian makes a good point it's like if you're gonna lip sync though like that means you're not doing cardio so you better be fucking flying the fuck around you know what i mean yeah yeah and i do just like there's something to being being like yeah i did it because it was like super fucking fun and like we can watch that and recognize that it's oh yeah i'm watching the clip over and over i'm like like on her back because i'm like wow look at you go on the like visa sky cam same wire

technology it seems like yeah uh also in the world of live music uh moving over to uh the the uk where is it this is the queen's band who are they playing for this is i guess the band queen the band i think no i mean it's it's part of like the royal i mean their dress is the royal guard so it's got to be like their equivalent for king charles yeah like their their top military band you know yeah so there's footage of people just falling out like members of the royal guard just falling out while like the trombone player in particular as the video starts is just on the ground fucking around face down face down just completely passed out um because it was uh 84 and you know there's a lot of people on

social media from the US being like I can do that shit 84 degrees. Not in that uniform. Yeah they're not built for it literally like their uniforms have giant fur caps that are like meant to store heat

from your body in them like super producer brian was like it's like having a giant hot air balloon on your head like it's a fucking blade it's a bare skin cap that's what's on their head it ain't nike dry fit it's a motherfucking bare skin on your fucking dome piece and it's black so it's absorbing all of that heat redirecting it on your head nah nah nah yeah then dark blue trousers dark it's like nah it ain't it's gonna be all wool they haven't presumably all wool so you see this person on the ground and like the other people are like kind of like you you're right he like tries to get up there's already another member of the Kings guard being like stretchered away in the background as this is happening. It is one of the great missed opportunities for a recovery.

If he had started playing the trombone on the ground and doing like the little curly thing where you like spin yourself around in a circle with your legs. Um, but no, it could have been, could have been great. No one wants to mess with the form anymore, Jack.'s the thing that's right people are trying to fucking break barriers

yeah the super producer anna hosnier shared this uh tweet with us which was that video and then uh from ron iver ronny ron ui uh ronny bear yeah that's right ron newy saying trying to think of another profession where you have to leave your co-worker to die because the boss needs to hear your little tune. Because you imagine that you're like, help me. And someone's looking at you like, I'm sorry, man. Can't. Can't.

Yeah. I mean, the trombone player gets up and just tries to resume and his you know the bandmates are visibly like physically concerned oh yeah being like hey no i love in the background though too there's another guardsman being carted off like he's on a fucking stretcher moment yeah but jack would you have would you have identified with this trombone player who despite all the odds tried to get back up on his feet yeah i wish i would have liked to yeah identify from you know my my days idolizing rocky and karate kid and now get back up mick get back up you son of a bitch because mickey loves you i was more like into the idea of that than the physical reality of going

through traumatic situation. Got it. Um, makes sense. Yeah. Anyways, you're going to have to redesign some uniforms. Like,

would that be, I'm curious, like in the UK, is that something they're going to be talking about? They're like, is our planet now hostile to the Royal guard uniform? Like wearing a bear skin on your head is now not feasible from

June to September. They're going to have to change the hat or wear shorts. And sandals. Everything's the same except it's just short shorts with the socks and sock garters. Let's take a quick break and we

will be right back. This summer, the nation watched as the Republican nominee for president was the target of two assassination attempts separated by two months. These events were mirrored nearly 50 years ago when President Gerald Ford faced two attempts on his life in less than three weeks. President Gerald R. Ford came stunningly close to being the victim of an assassin today. And these are the only two times we know of that a woman has tried to assassinate a U.S. president. One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson. I always felt like Lynette was kind of his right-hand woman.

The other, a middle-aged housewife working undercover for the FBI in a violent revolutionary underground. Identified by police as Sarah Jean Moore. The story of one strange and violent summer.

Some people won't give you the real talk on drugs, but it's time we know the facts. Fentanyl is often laced into illicit drugs and used to make fake versions of prescription pills. You can't see it, taste it, or smell it.

Suppliers mix fentanyl into their products because it's potent and cheap, and the dealer might not even know. Keep yourself and others safe by knowing the real deal on fentanyl. Get the facts.

All you need to do is record everything like you always do. One session, 24 hours. EPM 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 just dreams. Dream Sequence is a new horror thriller from Blumhouse Television, iHeartRadio, and Realm. Listen to Dream Sequence on the iHeartRadio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. We're back we're back and wild story of four children who survived 40 days in the amazon jungle after their plane crashed and killed all the adults on board the kids were age 13, 9, 4, and 11 months. And they're... That's mind-blowing. It's wild. Their mom was with them and survived for a couple days after the crash. Truly, like, a horrifying story. But also just, like, one of the most amazing stories of, you know, the resiliency of children.

They were also indigenous. Yeah. So they knew the land or at least how to eat things. This, I can't imagine if like kids from the U S all this to say they crashed. This is so harrowing. Their mother survived in the beginning, but like succumbed to her injuries,

like after four days yeah and told them to like go on like they weren't gonna like they need to it's like it's hard for me to even say because like i haven't like i'm like what if my little baby was in the jungle yeah and a 13 year old was having to look after him this shit is wild but yeah they were eating cassava flour and like for a over a fucking month yeah uh until they were found it's they ate cassava flour from the wreckage and survived off of fruit that they knew like they could eat because they were familiar with the flora of yeah yeah i mean like that's wild to be like, you're 13, the eldest, and now you have the lives of a 9, 4, and 11-month-old in your hands. The movie is going to be incredible.

Ron Howard's mouth is watering. He's a big fan of this show. Ron Howard pretended to be a Colombian journalist to get into the hospital to get the rights to this. But yeah, wild story speaking of mothers a mother and son have created what a reverse edible chocolate for soft landing from people who get too high hmm okay so you're like you're having the drug freakouts and then you can have one of these to like kind of bring it all down? They claim it's based on a paper they read about naturally occurring chemicals that can counteract THC, and that they came up with the idea after having one too many friends who ate too many edibles. like the news article is funny because they're like uh you know describing the very common thing of people eating too many edibles right but they're like doing it in news speak like they're

hearing about it for the first time uh the the person says it's because of the delayed effect of edibles you eat a gummy bear wait 10 minutes i haven't felt anything and you eat two more an hour later you're on your bathroom floor wondering where you are and so yeah i mean i know i remember people have said like cbd sometimes can help just like bring down the high but i know that's kind of like one of these like sort of i don't know if there seems to be like conflicting evidence over that yeah i think the whole thing first of all like marijuana highs are so different for different people like even having the same amount uh and then i'm sure this will have different effects on different people and also the mom in question in this story is an entrepreneur with a background

in non-traditional methods of healing um so there's some flags that go off in my brain on that there's definitely very interesting things done with non-traditional methods of healing in the medical community entrepreneurs are i prefer to hear from doctors on on those products but they've been barred from studying thc and cannabinoids but hey i'll take your word for it but yeah yeah, I don't know. I mean, yeah, like to your point, it affects people so differently. Like me with edibles, I just go to sleep. I'm not even having like this shit I see on TikTok where people are like, I became part of the Windows XP screensaver when I took an edible. I'm like, I am asleep.

That is me. Yeah, that is me. This would have been a product that would have been I would have explored. I would have kept on hand like an EpiPen in my 20s that's like yeah narcan yeah you have it on you um all right well those are some of the things that are trending yeah on this tuesday june 13th yes we are back tomorrow with the whole ass 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 tomorrow. Bye. Bye. 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.
