Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of eight
Trendy Nights.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Courtesy Vanadium Silver.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
On the disc.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Eight, it's uh, it's been a week out from Christmas.
Uh and one week to go. If you haven't bought
your mother flowers. Uh no, it's yeah, it's one week
out and also one week out from Honkah. I was
(00:34):
just saying, I feel like Honkah didn't hasn't happened yet.
I didn't notice Honkkah this year. And that's because, uh,
Honkkah's first night is on Christmas.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
So that's a interesting timing. Hey, so that's something I
mean that probably like puts Honkikah in a good kind
of pole position to be. You know, people, after Christmas
is over, you're still getting present.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Boom that night. You're like, all right, all right.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Keep them going.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Christmas is a mere appetizer for Trendy Nights. Anyways.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
My name's Jack not over there, Well, that's my boy,
Miles mad Dog.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
We are Miless feeling battle. Are thrilled to have him
back in the world of a living Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
I did Battle with Hades and back all right.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Arm review time.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Usually we do a whole episode doing Year and Review
and review where we review the year and review stuff.
But this time our year end story story of the
Year tournament kind of got away from us, so that
ended up being three episodes of the show.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
So you got that coming to you. It's a lot
of fun.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
No Year in Review and Review, but we can do
that right now on the trending episode, because Google has
released their a Year in Search for twenty twenty four
where they tell you some of the some of the
top trending things.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
This is weird miles.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Number two coming in ahead of the one spot ahead
of the Olympics is excessive heat. Oh what do you
think that about? That's all about?
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Is that like somebody do with Jimmy Butler and the
stuff that's going on?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Oh yeah, yeah Miami, Yeah, because like the Miami heat
like are always like heat culture and stuff a bit
excessive guys.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Yeah, back off.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Wow, that's yeah, yeah, forecasting of things to come so
hot there.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yeah, weirdly like doesn't feel like it gets a ton
of coverage in the mainstream media.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
But well it's just like the healthcare thing, right, It's like, yeah,
so many outlets they take money from the climate changers
that they're like, hey man, just kind of talk about
some other shit, right, don't make it hot for us
even though we're making it literally hot for everyone else. Yeah, yeah,
I mean not too surprising.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
But there's a list of like celebrities who don't you know,
pass people who passed. And I think I realized, like
at the time James Earl Jones passed and that Maggie
Smith passed, but it didn't fully register until I saw
it a second time.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
On this list, so it didn't hit you. Yeah, and
now it has hit me that Maggie Smith is passed,
and I'm.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Like, damn, that's from Harry Potter. Harry Pottery, and I'm
sure probably many other things because at her age she
probably accomplished many other things outside of just being in
Harry Potter.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
But okay, yeah, and then so this is something I
wanted to raise see if you have experienced this as well.
The movies, the top searched movies, Like, the list is
pretty straightforward and what you would expect inside out to
The biggest movie of the year was number one, Dead
Pull the Wolverine. Number two. I'm gonna skip number three
(04:03):
because that's the one. My questions about just Beetlejuice, Doom
Part two.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
It ends with us.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Oppenheimer is still hanging around Kung Fu Panda four, which
that one totally passed me by Alien Romulus Terrifier three.
These are all movies that came out this year kind
of made a splash. Didn't really surprise me except Oppenheimer,
but that was a massive movie that I expected to
have staying power from last year. But I didn't expect
number three ahead of all those movies except for Deadpool
(04:30):
and Wolverine and Inside Out to is Saltburn, Yes, which
was a film that, like I don't know it had
registered to me as a movie that a lot of
people towards the end of last year were like this
movie's wild but also.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Like very bad.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
And then recently I heard somebody raise it in the
context of like movies that they couldn't believe their friend
had missed, and like, oh my god, like you have
to watch that now, like that movies so wild, Like
I'm not gonna tell you anything about it, but like
you have to go watch Saltburn.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
The Internet. I haven't seen Saltburn because the Internet already
told me it's about cummy bathwater.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
It's not only about cummy bathwater miles and now here's
where I have to step in and no, it's.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Defend the honor and it's murder on the dance floor.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Yeah, that part is fun. It has some like wild
fun moments. It definitely like sticks with you like a
good movie would, but then it also has some like
wild embarrassing swings and misses. So like, I don't know,
it's just it's interesting that this is kind of moving
into this space as like a neo classic like that.
(05:43):
Everybody's just like yeah, man, like fucking Saltburn is a
must watch.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
It also, but it felt like for the timing of
the movie, it became one of those things that like
blew up during Christmas New Year's Break.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Like last year, and so it's just hanging around.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Reac because I remember like when we started the year,
it was all I revised talking about Sellburn and everybody
you see Selburn aperator.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Maybe it was just a timing thing.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Yeah, for me, it's a timing thing, like it had
an intense amount of interest right at the tail end
of the year and beginning of the year, and then
I remember early into the year we were talking about
like the guy who owned the Saltburn House and how
he's like, there's too many blasted tourists trying to take
pictures of my bath water.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah yeah, And that was the one thing that they
actually took from the house. They were like, they, Okay,
we gotta use this guy's comming bath wall. WHOA can
we write a scene in it where somebody drinks the
comming bathwater.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
It's just very odd like so to me, that's what
it's just. It was just like one of those ends
of the year phenomenons that Goose is the charts man.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
That's oh yeah, Oh so you're saying it's a Goose
charts the charts.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Some top actors Kat Williams number one, I feel like
that club. Yeah, like not necessarily for his acting work,
although he is really good and like a number of
things I've seen him.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Then I wonder, though, it's probably also doubled up because
there are people who know who Kat Williams is, and
then other people like who is this Cat Williams will
that everyone is talking about? And what is he saying
about the entertainment industry?
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Was that the first episode of Atlanta with the Alligator
and Kat Williams? I think so yeah, it was like
one of their but he's really good in that. Yeah,
Adam Brody number three. People are finding out about Adam
bro A new generation is discovering Adam Brody thanks to
nobody wants this.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Any other names on the actor's list, Kiaren Colkin, Terrence Howard.
So it's like a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
I feel like there's some people mixed in who are like, yeah,
they were like really.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
What was Howard doing?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
I think there's toward people are just finding out about
Terryology and being like, oh, everything I knew was wrong.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
You know, I got to look at what this trend
is about, like when was it hitting? When was he
getting Oh it was all around May of this year.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
I think that's when Terryology started going by.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
That when he went back on Rogan maybe.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Maybe yeah, yeah, yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Yeah, okay, yeah, I think this is right around the
when people were the mainstreaming of Tereology. I think happened.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Good for him, though, I wills to see it. I
feel so bad for his doubters though, because he'll be like,
were you the number five searched at right? Yeah, on
Google's trends because of how you were subverting modern mathematics.
I'm like, couldn't be me.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
I'll tell you what couldn't be me? Because I've believed
in him from day one. Plus one equals three? Okay, wow,
is that what it is? Equals?
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I actually don't know, doesn't matter, done, matter, doesn't matter.
One times one equals too.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Maybe times one equals too.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Baby, that's true and that is true, and that's fat
then of course. Okay, so those are the Google any
anything else jump out of you from Google the year
in search?
Speaker 4 (08:47):
No, I mean, it's all just like I mean, it
always gives us a good idea of like everything that
popped in easy to digest top ten form, that's for sure,
And that's kind of it. I'm just trying to think.
I mean, there's plenty like when you go to global settings,
then I'm like, oh, I don't know who this actor.
I don't know who this song is. Yea, but not
like US number one song, okay globally?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah, it makes like us number one globally.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be
come back with the porn equivalent of We will be
come back with the porn equivalent of that, which is
the porn Hub Year in Review of twenty twenty four,
and we'll try and get into some news as well.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
We'll be right back.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
And we're back, We're back, and so yeah, porn Hub,
not to be outdone by Google, their main competitor, does
like a year in search, you know, just running the numbers,
presenting them in fun little infographic charts. The two that
jumped out to me is as always, the United States
top relative searches by state, where you get to see
(09:59):
like that searching.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Their relatives exactly, which might actually kind of be true.
Here look at some of these.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
There there are a bunch that are great out that
are probably can just assume is like stepsister, step brothers,
step relative of all sorts. So just some fun things too.
You know, I don't know if anything jumped out to
you at you uh, I have to shout out New
Jersey Number one is Iranian. I'm wondering, like, so maybe
(10:28):
this shed some light on the drone panic and like
what was actually going on with them because.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
The number, Yeah, yeah, there's an there's an Iranian mother
ship off the coast.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Yeah, there's a Jersey politician who was like, Iran is
coming for New Jersey. So maybe they're just like working
through some like sexual stuff they have gone on with Iran.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
Yeah. Also, yeah, I one thing that is interesting me
shout out Florida for like a afecting Spanish. It's not
like it's not like hot Cuban. It's yeah, all right,
so right they already know, already knows actual Cuban people
searching for that, shout out South Dakota. Y'all have no
flavor Dakota is the best that no my flavor seasoning
(11:19):
at all? What your South Dakota's number one search term
is drum roll bed but.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Jack hot babes, like all the other ones are like these,
Well there's one other state that kind of is in
the running with this, but like there's like friend's mom lesbian.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Strap on California. Washington is like milking. You know, there's
all sorts of advanced stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
You see.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Hawaii's what is haw Wahoo who That's one of.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
The like am I missing something? Oh?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Yeah, man, you got to check out the people from Owahu.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Think at Freaky Alaska and ol Dildo, South Dakota hot babes.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
Hot babes, and also Iowa also pretty tame work.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Trip right exactly. Minnesota futa hene wow, Wow, Okay, yeah,
Missouri is Grandma and Missouri just I don't know what
to do with you.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
Yeah, it's interesting. I didn't realize. Oh, and then such
a relationship to between New Jersey and New York. While
New Jersey is Iranian, New York's is Turkish.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Turkish all Eric Adams Yeah, yeah, and then I do
just have to shout out Pennsylvania also like in the
same family in South Dakota naked women, yo, naked women.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
There's no way wild. This is clearly like people who
are just starting to use the Internet and trying to
summon things. Yeah, was there like a baby boom naked
women years.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Ago in Pennsylvania or something? Did they just get the
Internet and then they're just the other thing. To put
this in a global context of the top twenty countries
by traffic to porn hub, and the United States is
so far ahead of everybody else, like.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Just it's like dwarfs the.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
I'm wondering, like again, if there's a bias because porn
hub is an American thing, that naturally the audience is
going to be mostly American. But again, I don't I
need people from other in well, who's in second is
it France?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Frances and second Okay, So like if it was, it
was just like a regional is it, you know, like
then you'd assume the UK or like you know, Ireland
or something. But yeah, Pornhub thinks of itself as a
global brand, and it's interesting that the United States is
still that far out front baby killing.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
It to cry for help or better hot women videos.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Yeah, hot babes, Hot babes, Dude.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
That used to be one of the phone sex lines
we used to We used to call from a payphone
at our school just to hear the intro. One eight
hundred Hot Babes was like a big babe. No, there
was one eight hundred Hot Babes.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
South it is still the year nineteen eighty seven in
South Dakota. Like North Dakota is lesbian strap on South Dakota.
You cross the border to South Dakota and it's just
dudes and mullets being like, hey man, you got any
hot babes I could look at.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
That's a difference between Doug Burghum and our our homegirl
from South Dakota. Miss dog Murker aka.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Dogs is actually like a really good last name.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Christy Dogmurker dog Murker.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Yeah, Times person of the Year is Donald Trump. Enough
to time is a garbage publication. Also, just in a
slightly related story, Floridians whose taste in pornography we just
we're complimenting, have less than two weeks to jack off
to porn hub because beginning on January first, porn Hub
(15:13):
is withdrawing from the Sunshine State. Some may even say
they're pulling out of the Sunshine State in their headlines,
and yeah they have. Porn Hubb is pulling out. According
to Gizmoto of Florida, if you go to the website
right now in Florida, you get a countdown warning. And
I think this already happened in Utah. This is over
(15:33):
a planned law that would require websites to use an
age verification system or be fined.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
And the methods for the age verification are pretty.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Intrusive, maybe intrusive necessary And yeah, like it involves you
scanning your fucking ID face and an ID your government idea.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
Yeah, yeah, so yeah, yeah, anyway, that's this is Project
twenty twenty five happening in little doses everybody.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, so that's cool. Just like anytime you want to
go to porn hubb. Just imagine Donald Trump looking over
your shoulder. Yeah, he wouldn't care. Actually, don't don't imagine him.
Imagine jd Vance because like Trump would be like, oh yeah,
like that one, look up some hot babes.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Isn't like a meme about like like warning Christian people
like Christ like being right next to you and you're
on the internet kind of shit.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Yeah, Well, there's the one where Christ puts his arm
out for the junkie, so he's yeah, because he's a greedy,
a greedy junkie. He's put his arm so the heroin
user is injecting Christ's arm instead of their own. I've
never seen the one where he puts his arm out
while the while the Christian is viewing pornography so that
(16:40):
he has to like jack the Christian off. I'm just
saying like that that would be the equivalent of the
drug using pope.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
I think I just see just Jesus shedding a single tear, like, wow,
you're hurting Jesus. But anyway, it's a sin. Either way,
I don't be cotton sin. And also don't google what
a VPN is, Okay, except because that's the way around it.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
This is like a nice little weather balloon for any
sort of social media bands. Although I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I will say, like a lot of people are pointing
out that, like people are going to get around this band,
it's going to send them to other websites that aren't
compliant that might have like darker, more illegal shit on them, And.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Yeah, that's definitely true.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
I will say, like, I don't know that people are
going to be willing to break the law to go
on Facebook as much as they'd be willing to break
the law to get pornography, sure, which she is like
a time honored tradition of like, you know, twelve year
old boys shoplifting.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
So like, yes, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Yeah, you can't stop it, but hey, you can try
and vilify anything remotely resembling sexual liberation, as you know,
one dimension of your all out attack on progress.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
And we have an update on a story that I
think we talked about right.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
On the referenced it.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah, black kitchen utensils, Yes, exactly. The story was that
they were like melted down electronics, Is that?
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Yeah? Right, whole household electronics melted down and then reincorporated
in these plastic kitchen utensils. But here's the thing. Those
melted down household electronics also contained flame retarding chemicals, and
so as a result, some of those toxic chemicals were
now being part of these black kitchen utensils that, like
everybody knows. I think this is like the set of
(18:36):
plastic utensils for kitchen you've been using since I don't know,
I've I've had my shit since like two thousand and six,
because that's just how ubiquitous they are. But here's the thing.
The fucking nerds behind that study did a major math
goof so specifically in this well, I'll let Wired magazine explain. Quote,
the utensil would transfer thirty four seven hundred nanograms of
(19:00):
the contaminant a day based on regular use while cooking
and serving hot food. So they're saying that's about what
you would get out of these chemicals. The EPA safe
level for these chemicals is seven thousand nanograms per kilogram
of body weight per day, and the authors used a
sixty kilogram benchmark as the adult weight about one hundred
(19:21):
and thirty two pounds. So what they did was, they
said they basically fucked up and did again all at
the EPA s plan. So the safe EPA limit would
be seven thousand, because that's how many nanograms per kilogram
you're allowed a day by sixty, yielding four hundred twenty
thousand nanograms per day. If we're going by the EPA's math,
that's what is like normal that you could get. That
(19:44):
number is actually twelve times more than the estimated exposure
of thirty four thousand, seven hundred nanograms per day. The
reason they were raising alarms is because the people in
the study only multiplied seven thousand by six rather than sixty,
so they got to forty two thousand in nanograms. And
they're like, oh shit, we didn't add to zero.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
All right, for like messing this up and like, you know,
getting people alarmed needlessly when there are so many better
things to get alarmed about. But I'm also so mad
at them for messing this up and making us have
to like do the homework to try and understand what
that shit just was. All the nanogram math, Like that's
(20:26):
for you fucking guys to worry about.
Speaker 4 (20:29):
When reached for a quote, the author of the study
plainly said, Hey, why the fuck am I on trial?
But the sitting is, you know, they're like whoops, we
will be amending the study immediately. I mean, it is
definitely worth studying how we are downstream of these fucked
up chemicals and how somehow melted down house electronics or
(20:50):
things we rub our food on, and shit, is.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
This like black plastic like disposable forks and knives and
spoons or these.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Are those like you know those spatulum the fucking the
spaghetti fucking thing, all that stuff you know, like you
buy in a set like ye fucking target, like when
you're getting going into you move out of the house.
So but the other thing, another sort of eye catching
part of the study basically suggested that contamination isn't that
(21:19):
common of an occurrence. But then they're like, it goes
on to say, the study examine two hundred three black
plastic household products, including one hundred and nine kitchen utensils,
thirty six toys, thirty hair accessories, in twenty eight food
service where products of those two hundred three products, only
twenty ten percent had any bromine containing compounds at levels
that might indicate contamination from bromine based flame retardants like
(21:41):
BD two oh nine, which is the specific ones you're like, oh, Okay,
so but it's still bad. And I'm like, well, I agree, yeah,
that's still bad.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
But you had one. You had be getting bad enough, guys.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Yeah, but I still again, what they're saying still does
have validity to it that because it's coming from an
organization is like, dude, they are getting toxic shit into
all They're hiding it in all this shit around us,
and we need to be aware of it.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
You fucked up, bro mine, Yeah, you fucked up.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
Now RFK Junior is coming for your ass.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
All right.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Those are some of the things that are trending on
this Wednesday, December eighteenth. We are back tomorrow with the
whole ass episode of the show. Yep, we'll also have
a trending tomorrow and then we will be getting into
the holiday episode. Well we'll even have someone like Fridays. Yeah,
it'll be Yeah, it'll be a it'll be a black guys.
(22:33):
It's gonna be a lot of fun. But yeah, I
hope everybody's having a great beginning to the holiday season.
And we will talk to y'all tomorrow. Until then, be
kind to each other, be kind to yourself, get your vaccines,
get your flu shots, don't do nothing about white supremacy,
and we will talk to y'all tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
Bye bye,
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of eight
Trendy Nights.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Courtesy Vanadium Silver.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
On the disc.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Eight, it's uh, it's been a week out from Christmas.
Uh and one week to go. If you haven't bought
your mother flowers. Uh no, it's yeah, it's one week
out and also one week out from Honkah. I was
(00:34):
just saying, I feel like Honkah didn't hasn't happened yet.
I didn't notice Honkkah this year. And that's because, uh,
Honkkah's first night is on Christmas.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
So that's a interesting timing. Hey, so that's something I
mean that probably like puts Honkikah in a good kind
of pole position to be. You know, people, after Christmas
is over, you're still getting present.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Boom that night. You're like, all right, all right.
Speaker 2 (01:03):

I did Battle with Hades and back all right.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Arm review time.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Usually we do a whole episode doing Year and Review
and review where we review the year and review stuff.
But this time our year end story story of the
Year tournament kind of got away from us, so that
ended up being three episodes of the show.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
So you got that coming to you. It's a lot
of fun.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
No Year in Review and Review, but we can do
that right now on the trending episode, because Google has
released their a Year in Search for twenty twenty four
where they tell you some of the some of the
top trending things.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
This is weird miles.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Number two coming in ahead of the one spot ahead
of the Olympics is excessive heat. Oh what do you
think that about? That's all about?
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Is that like somebody do with Jimmy Butler and the
stuff that's going on?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Oh yeah, yeah Miami, Yeah, because like the Miami heat
like are always like heat culture and stuff a bit
excessive guys.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Yeah, back off.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Wow, that's yeah, yeah, forecasting of things to come so
hot there.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yeah, weirdly like doesn't feel like it gets a ton
of coverage in the mainstream media.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
But well it's just like the healthcare thing, right, It's like, yeah,
so many outlets they take money from the climate changers
that they're like, hey man, just kind of talk about
some other shit, right, don't make it hot for us
even though we're making it literally hot for everyone else. Yeah, yeah,
I mean not too surprising.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
But there's a list of like celebrities who don't you know,
pass people who passed. And I think I realized, like
at the time James Earl Jones passed and that Maggie
Smith passed, but it didn't fully register until I saw
it a second time.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
On this list, so it didn't hit you. Yeah, and
now it has hit me that Maggie Smith is passed,
and I'm.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Like, damn, that's from Harry Potter. Harry Pottery, and I'm
sure probably many other things because at her age she
probably accomplished many other things outside of just being in
Harry Potter.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
But okay, yeah, and then so this is something I
wanted to raise see if you have experienced this as well.
The movies, the top searched movies, Like, the list is
pretty straightforward and what you would expect inside out to
The biggest movie of the year was number one, Dead
Pull the Wolverine. Number two. I'm gonna skip number three
(04:03):
because that's the one. My questions about just Beetlejuice, Doom
Part two.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
It ends with us.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Oppenheimer is still hanging around Kung Fu Panda four, which
that one totally passed me by Alien Romulus Terrifier three.
These are all movies that came out this year kind
of made a splash. Didn't really surprise me except Oppenheimer,
but that was a massive movie that I expected to
have staying power from last year. But I didn't expect
number three ahead of all those movies except for Deadpool
(04:30):
and Wolverine and Inside Out to is Saltburn, Yes, which
was a film that, like I don't know it had
registered to me as a movie that a lot of
people towards the end of last year were like this
movie's wild but also.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Like very bad.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
And then recently I heard somebody raise it in the
context of like movies that they couldn't believe their friend
had missed, and like, oh my god, like you have
to watch that now, like that movies so wild, Like
I'm not gonna tell you anything about it, but like
you have to go watch Saltburn.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
The Internet. I haven't seen Saltburn because the Internet already
told me it's about cummy bathwater.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
It's not only about cummy bathwater miles and now here's
where I have to step in and no, it's.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Defend the honor and it's murder on the dance floor.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Yeah, that part is fun. It has some like wild
fun moments. It definitely like sticks with you like a
good movie would, but then it also has some like
wild embarrassing swings and misses. So like, I don't know,
it's just it's interesting that this is kind of moving
into this space as like a neo classic like that.
(05:43):
Everybody's just like yeah, man, like fucking Saltburn is a
must watch.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
It also, but it felt like for the timing of
the movie, it became one of those things that like
blew up during Christmas New Year's Break.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Like last year, and so it's just hanging around.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Reac because I remember like when we started the year,
it was all I revised talking about Sellburn and everybody
you see Selburn aperator.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Maybe it was just a timing thing.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Yeah, for me, it's a timing thing, like it had
an intense amount of interest right at the tail end
of the year and beginning of the year, and then
I remember early into the year we were talking about
like the guy who owned the Saltburn House and how
he's like, there's too many blasted tourists trying to take
pictures of my bath water.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah yeah, And that was the one thing that they
actually took from the house. They were like, they, Okay,
we gotta use this guy's comming bath wall. WHOA can
we write a scene in it where somebody drinks the
comming bathwater.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
It's just very odd like so to me, that's what
it's just. It was just like one of those ends
of the year phenomenons that Goose is the charts man.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
That's oh yeah, Oh so you're saying it's a Goose
charts the charts.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Some top actors Kat Williams number one, I feel like
that club. Yeah, like not necessarily for his acting work,
although he is really good and like a number of
things I've seen him.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Then I wonder, though, it's probably also doubled up because
there are people who know who Kat Williams is, and
then other people like who is this Cat Williams will
that everyone is talking about? And what is he saying
about the entertainment industry?
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Was that the first episode of Atlanta with the Alligator
and Kat Williams? I think so yeah, it was like
one of their but he's really good in that. Yeah,
Adam Brody number three. People are finding out about Adam
bro A new generation is discovering Adam Brody thanks to
nobody wants this.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Any other names on the actor's list, Kiaren Colkin, Terrence Howard.
So it's like a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
I feel like there's some people mixed in who are like, yeah,
they were like really.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
What was Howard doing?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
I think there's toward people are just finding out about
Terryology and being like, oh, everything I knew was wrong.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
You know, I got to look at what this trend
is about, like when was it hitting? When was he
getting Oh it was all around May of this year.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
I think that's when Terryology started going by.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
That when he went back on Rogan maybe.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Maybe yeah, yeah, yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Yeah, okay, yeah, I think this is right around the
when people were the mainstreaming of Tereology. I think happened.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Good for him, though, I wills to see it. I
feel so bad for his doubters though, because he'll be like,
were you the number five searched at right? Yeah, on
Google's trends because of how you were subverting modern mathematics.
I'm like, couldn't be me.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
I'll tell you what couldn't be me? Because I've believed
in him from day one. Plus one equals three? Okay, wow,
is that what it is? Equals?
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I actually don't know, doesn't matter, done, matter, doesn't matter.
One times one equals too.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Maybe times one equals too.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Baby, that's true and that is true, and that's fat
then of course. Okay, so those are the Google any
anything else jump out of you from Google the year
in search?
Speaker 4 (08:47):
No, I mean, it's all just like I mean, it
always gives us a good idea of like everything that
popped in easy to digest top ten form, that's for sure,
And that's kind of it. I'm just trying to think.
I mean, there's plenty like when you go to global settings,
then I'm like, oh, I don't know who this actor.
I don't know who this song is. Yea, but not
like US number one song, okay globally?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah, it makes like us number one globally.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be
come back with the porn equivalent of We will be
come back with the porn equivalent of that, which is
the porn Hub Year in Review of twenty twenty four,
and we'll try and get into some news as well.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
We'll be right back.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
And we're back, We're back, and so yeah, porn Hub,
not to be outdone by Google, their main competitor, does
like a year in search, you know, just running the numbers,
presenting them in fun little infographic charts. The two that
jumped out to me is as always, the United States
top relative searches by state, where you get to see
(09:59):
like that searching.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Their relatives exactly, which might actually kind of be true.
Here look at some of these.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
There there are a bunch that are great out that
are probably can just assume is like stepsister, step brothers,
step relative of all sorts. So just some fun things too.
You know, I don't know if anything jumped out to
you at you uh, I have to shout out New
Jersey Number one is Iranian. I'm wondering, like, so maybe
(10:28):
this shed some light on the drone panic and like
what was actually going on with them because.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
The number, Yeah, yeah, there's an there's an Iranian mother
ship off the coast.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Yeah, there's a Jersey politician who was like, Iran is
coming for New Jersey. So maybe they're just like working
through some like sexual stuff they have gone on with Iran.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
Yeah. Also, yeah, I one thing that is interesting me
shout out Florida for like a afecting Spanish. It's not
like it's not like hot Cuban. It's yeah, all right,
so right they already know, already knows actual Cuban people
searching for that, shout out South Dakota. Y'all have no
flavor Dakota is the best that no my flavor seasoning
(11:19):
at all? What your South Dakota's number one search term
is drum roll bed but.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Jack hot babes, like all the other ones are like these,
Well there's one other state that kind of is in
the running with this, but like there's like friend's mom lesbian.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Strap on California. Washington is like milking. You know, there's
all sorts of advanced stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
You see.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Hawaii's what is haw Wahoo who That's one of.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
The like am I missing something? Oh?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Yeah, man, you got to check out the people from Owahu.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Think at Freaky Alaska and ol Dildo, South Dakota hot babes.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
Hot babes, and also Iowa also pretty tame work.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Trip right exactly. Minnesota futa hene wow, Wow, Okay, yeah,
Missouri is Grandma and Missouri just I don't know what
to do with you.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
Yeah, it's interesting. I didn't realize. Oh, and then such
a relationship to between New Jersey and New York. While
New Jersey is Iranian, New York's is Turkish.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Turkish all Eric Adams Yeah, yeah, and then I do
just have to shout out Pennsylvania also like in the
same family in South Dakota naked women, yo, naked women.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
There's no way wild. This is clearly like people who
are just starting to use the Internet and trying to
summon things. Yeah, was there like a baby boom naked
women years.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Ago in Pennsylvania or something? Did they just get the
Internet and then they're just the other thing. To put
this in a global context of the top twenty countries
by traffic to porn hub, and the United States is
so far ahead of everybody else, like.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Just it's like dwarfs the.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
I'm wondering, like again, if there's a bias because porn
hub is an American thing, that naturally the audience is
going to be mostly American. But again, I don't I
need people from other in well, who's in second is
it France?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Frances and second Okay, So like if it was, it
was just like a regional is it, you know, like
then you'd assume the UK or like you know, Ireland
or something. But yeah, Pornhub thinks of itself as a
global brand, and it's interesting that the United States is
still that far out front baby killing.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
It to cry for help or better hot women videos.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Yeah, hot babes, Hot babes, Dude.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
That used to be one of the phone sex lines
we used to We used to call from a payphone
at our school just to hear the intro. One eight
hundred Hot Babes was like a big babe. No, there
was one eight hundred Hot Babes.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
South it is still the year nineteen eighty seven in
South Dakota. Like North Dakota is lesbian strap on South Dakota.
You cross the border to South Dakota and it's just
dudes and mullets being like, hey man, you got any
hot babes I could look at.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
That's a difference between Doug Burghum and our our homegirl
from South Dakota. Miss dog Murker aka.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Dogs is actually like a really good last name.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Christy Dogmurker dog Murker.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Yeah, Times person of the Year is Donald Trump. Enough
to time is a garbage publication. Also, just in a
slightly related story, Floridians whose taste in pornography we just
we're complimenting, have less than two weeks to jack off
to porn hub because beginning on January first, porn Hub
(15:13):
is withdrawing from the Sunshine State. Some may even say
they're pulling out of the Sunshine State in their headlines,
and yeah they have. Porn Hubb is pulling out. According
to Gizmoto of Florida, if you go to the website
right now in Florida, you get a countdown warning. And
I think this already happened in Utah. This is over
(15:33):
a planned law that would require websites to use an
age verification system or be fined.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
And the methods for the age verification are pretty.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Intrusive, maybe intrusive necessary And yeah, like it involves you
scanning your fucking ID face and an ID your government idea.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
Yeah, yeah, so yeah, yeah, anyway, that's this is Project
twenty twenty five happening in little doses everybody.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, so that's cool. Just like anytime you want to
go to porn hubb. Just imagine Donald Trump looking over
your shoulder. Yeah, he wouldn't care. Actually, don't don't imagine him.
Imagine jd Vance because like Trump would be like, oh yeah,
like that one, look up some hot babes.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Isn't like a meme about like like warning Christian people
like Christ like being right next to you and you're
on the internet kind of shit.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Yeah, Well, there's the one where Christ puts his arm
out for the junkie, so he's yeah, because he's a greedy,
a greedy junkie. He's put his arm so the heroin
user is injecting Christ's arm instead of their own. I've
never seen the one where he puts his arm out
while the while the Christian is viewing pornography so that
(16:40):
he has to like jack the Christian off. I'm just
saying like that that would be the equivalent of the
drug using pope.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
I think I just see just Jesus shedding a single tear, like, wow,
you're hurting Jesus. But anyway, it's a sin. Either way,
I don't be cotton sin. And also don't google what
a VPN is, Okay, except because that's the way around it.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
This is like a nice little weather balloon for any
sort of social media bands. Although I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I will say, like a lot of people are pointing
out that, like people are going to get around this band,
it's going to send them to other websites that aren't
compliant that might have like darker, more illegal shit on them, And.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Yeah, that's definitely true.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
I will say, like, I don't know that people are
going to be willing to break the law to go
on Facebook as much as they'd be willing to break
the law to get pornography, sure, which she is like
a time honored tradition of like, you know, twelve year
old boys shoplifting.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
So like, yes, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Yeah, you can't stop it, but hey, you can try
and vilify anything remotely resembling sexual liberation, as you know,
one dimension of your all out attack on progress.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
And we have an update on a story that I
think we talked about right.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
On the referenced it.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah, black kitchen utensils, Yes, exactly. The story was that
they were like melted down electronics, Is that?
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Yeah? Right, whole household electronics melted down and then reincorporated
in these plastic kitchen utensils. But here's the thing. Those
melted down household electronics also contained flame retarding chemicals, and
so as a result, some of those toxic chemicals were
now being part of these black kitchen utensils that, like
everybody knows. I think this is like the set of
(18:36):
plastic utensils for kitchen you've been using since I don't know,
I've I've had my shit since like two thousand and six,
because that's just how ubiquitous they are. But here's the thing.
The fucking nerds behind that study did a major math
goof so specifically in this well, I'll let Wired magazine explain. Quote,
the utensil would transfer thirty four seven hundred nanograms of
(19:00):
the contaminant a day based on regular use while cooking
and serving hot food. So they're saying that's about what
you would get out of these chemicals. The EPA safe
level for these chemicals is seven thousand nanograms per kilogram
of body weight per day, and the authors used a
sixty kilogram benchmark as the adult weight about one hundred
(19:21):
and thirty two pounds. So what they did was, they
said they basically fucked up and did again all at
the EPA s plan. So the safe EPA limit would
be seven thousand, because that's how many nanograms per kilogram
you're allowed a day by sixty, yielding four hundred twenty
thousand nanograms per day. If we're going by the EPA's math,
that's what is like normal that you could get. That
(19:44):
number is actually twelve times more than the estimated exposure
of thirty four thousand, seven hundred nanograms per day. The
reason they were raising alarms is because the people in
the study only multiplied seven thousand by six rather than sixty,
so they got to forty two thousand in nanograms. And
they're like, oh shit, we didn't add to zero.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
All right, for like messing this up and like, you know,
getting people alarmed needlessly when there are so many better
things to get alarmed about. But I'm also so mad
at them for messing this up and making us have
to like do the homework to try and understand what
that shit just was. All the nanogram math, Like that's
(20:26):
for you fucking guys to worry about.
Speaker 4 (20:29):
When reached for a quote, the author of the study
plainly said, Hey, why the fuck am I on trial?
But the sitting is, you know, they're like whoops, we
will be amending the study immediately. I mean, it is
definitely worth studying how we are downstream of these fucked
up chemicals and how somehow melted down house electronics or
(20:50):
things we rub our food on, and shit, is.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
This like black plastic like disposable forks and knives and
spoons or these.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Are those like you know those spatulum the fucking the
spaghetti fucking thing, all that stuff you know, like you
buy in a set like ye fucking target, like when
you're getting going into you move out of the house.
So but the other thing, another sort of eye catching
part of the study basically suggested that contamination isn't that
(21:19):
common of an occurrence. But then they're like, it goes
on to say, the study examine two hundred three black
plastic household products, including one hundred and nine kitchen utensils,
thirty six toys, thirty hair accessories, in twenty eight food
service where products of those two hundred three products, only
twenty ten percent had any bromine containing compounds at levels
that might indicate contamination from bromine based flame retardants like
(21:41):
BD two oh nine, which is the specific ones you're like, oh, Okay,
so but it's still bad. And I'm like, well, I agree, yeah,
that's still bad.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
But you had one. You had be getting bad enough, guys.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Yeah, but I still again, what they're saying still does
have validity to it that because it's coming from an
organization is like, dude, they are getting toxic shit into
all They're hiding it in all this shit around us,
and we need to be aware of it.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
You fucked up, bro mine, Yeah, you fucked up.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
Now RFK Junior is coming for your ass.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
All right.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Those are some of the things that are trending on
this Wednesday, December eighteenth. We are back tomorrow with the
whole ass episode of the show. Yep, we'll also have
a trending tomorrow and then we will be getting into
the holiday episode. Well we'll even have someone like Fridays. Yeah,
it'll be Yeah, it'll be a it'll be a black guys.
(22:33):
It's gonna be a lot of fun. But yeah, I
hope everybody's having a great beginning to the holiday season.
And we will talk to y'all tomorrow. Until then, be
kind to each other, be kind to yourself, get your vaccines,
