Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, well, welcome to this afternoon edition, Wednesday, July tenth
edition of a restrand for butt chugging. I'm Miles, I'm
joined by the iconic Jackie Sneilo. Great to have you.
Let's get into what is trending today on Wednesday. So
(00:20):
as the title alludes to a Georgia couple was arrested
for butt chugging at a restaurant, you say, what the
fuck am I talking about? Well, over the weekend a
video went viral of a couple trying to butt chug
a margarita at a Mexican restaurant in Georgia. Yes, I
just said that out loud. And apparently this guy ordered
a margarita and somehow got a funnel and his date
(00:42):
got on all four so the margarita could be boothed.
The funnel wasn't working, so he then just opted to
pour it down her crack and drink it. Now, this
was all taped for some reason and went on the internet.
When the restaurant staff saw what was happening, they were
kicked out. Now this woul normally just be like a
salacious story, like, oh my god, can you believe this
couple was doing this? Debraved shit in a restaurant. I mean,
(01:04):
yes we can. But this is where it gets fucking stupid.
So they were recently arrested for public indecency. How well,
the woman in the video went to the police and
complained that someone leaked a video of her and it
was going viral on the internet and she wanted to
stop it. And they're like, a video of what and
she's like, just me, you know, a restaurant or whatever.
(01:26):
Then the police saw the video and had no idea
what was going on. The police had no idea that
this even happened. So she mentioned it, they see the
video and then like, oh, yeah, we're gonna have to
charge you for fucking misdemeanor of public indecency. What the
fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Oh, you just showed us a crime.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Oh so you you know you're dry snitching on yourself
whatever whatever. Yeah, So she really it's just wild to me, Like,
obviously you probably got to be off your fucking ass.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
You had to be either they had to be either
they lost to bet or they had to be like
off their ass high or some shit or some freaking
shit like heteristic shit. I've never butt chugged before. I
hear it's a quick way to get drunk. John Cena
has johnsena and blockers. Yeah, he butt chugged. Very funny scene. Yeah,
(02:15):
And I don't think I'm interested in trying, but like
I would if I was at a restaurant and somebody.
I always when I see stories like this, I'm always like,
why come shit can't happen like this around me? Like,
I just want to be in a restaurant where this
shit happens so I could see how I would react.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
I like, do you know, I feel like some people, though,
there are also people that have like the energy to
somehow be in these places when it happens. Like I
have a friend in high school who some like they
were like the forest gump of like ratchet shit, but
they just were fucking they were somehow there and they
weren't always they were there, and I was like how.
But I get to like, I think they feel something
(02:56):
in the in the water, like a shark, you know
what I mean. They just they just know where to
be it. But for me, yeah, they're not doing that,
uh at my local supermarket or anything like that. And
I saw that, I think, I don't know, I think
if you saw that you'd be like, this is so
fucking nasty, like what the fuck?
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Like you wouldn't even be laughing like it. It depends
on where I'm at. If I'm at like Olive Garden
or some ship, I would probably.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Be like if you're what if you're there with your mom?
Speaker 2 (03:23):
If I was there with my mom, what would happen?
Speaker 1 (03:27):
My mom would probably be laughing.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I was gonna say, I think it would be funnier
like to me if I was there with my mom.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
I don't even know why. It's in the funnel up there,
but trying to eat a market drink of margarita the
mom and be like, these people are happy.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
My mom is experiencing this Like were like, you need
to get out the house, and this is what's happening
out here in the world.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
People are fucking but chugging Margarita's at the Mexican Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Now, world out here, mama.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
This is what it's like to get a theater degree.
It's wild out here. Appliances are trending. This is because
the House, the House of Representatives in our United States Congress,
they just passed fucking measures that prevent the Energy Secretary
from enforcing energy efficiency standards on like household appliances. This
(04:19):
is all part because you always hear Trump talking about
like the water doesn't come out our freezers. Don't like
all this dumb shit because they're trying to paint energy
efficiency as woke. But in this version, it's the like
Biden is being over zealous and he's like declaring outright
war on the people who like to buy gigantic refrigerators
because look, the shit still works, it still freezes. Where
(04:41):
is the damage. But essentially it says it will basically
keep this the Energy Secretary from enforcing energy conservation standards
for refrigerators, freezers, and dishwashers that are not quote cost
effective or technologically feasible. And this is just passed down
party line. So good to see them really have head
in the game. Yeah, I mean everything.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Yeah, you know, I think like I think sometimes I
forget or just don't think, not forget, but don't think
about like all the minute bills or not minute. But
just like the dumb shit that you would never think
our elected officials are talking about, right hey, that they're
talking about this is one of them. And I just
(05:25):
I also don't get I think we're in a weird
place man, where it's just like, oh you like that,
then I don't like it. And that's kind of where
we're at now. It's just like yeah, but.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
It's the same thing when they were like getting mad
that like xboxes had like an energy saving mode, like
when it was like low power mode when you weren't
using it, Like what are you trying to do? Man,
we're trying to say about the earth, Like it's like,
I don't know, it's cheaper for consumers. It's cheaper a
bunch of energy.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
And here's the thing, you don't even notice it. Yeah,
although I will say, maybe I shouldn't out myself on,
but I will say, Miles, you probably know this that
there is a legal limit to the type of shower
head that we can have here in the state of California. Yeah,
I just gotta I just got around. I'm just gonna
(06:12):
say that. I I you know, I I may have
brought bought something, had it shipped to a certain place
and have people ship it take across state lines, you know,
and and and I'm enjoying some extra water pressure. That's
all I'm gonna say. That's all I'm gonna say.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
So you know, It's not like you're out here like
leaving it running all day.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
No, I'm a shower and that's it. Yeah, and I
want to shower.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Not like me. I need to have the like low
flow versions on there because I take a shower for
at least six hours. Yeah. So yeah, just staring straight
ahead with it just just completely disconnected from reality.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Yeah yeah, you need you need zero point eight gallons
per minute.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Yeah, right, exactly. I'm like a horse when it goes
to sleep. I just stand in a shower that's on
and just completely dissociate. All right, let's take a quick
break and we'll come back with some more story right
after this, and we're back. So Will Smith he is
(07:15):
back in the news. I mean obviously bad boys doing great,
bringing people to the theaters and things like that, but
he's now it sounds like he's trying to get the
Academy to overturn his like ten year ban for the
Chris Rock Slab. And a part of me is like,
I don't even the band is so fucking stupid considering
you know that's going on.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
It's like especially now because nobody gives a shit anymore.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Yeah, and it was so whatever, you know what I mean, like,
I think we talked about this, and the there was
also just the pearl clutching from people like this, this
black man went on stage and got violent. He needs
to be arrested, you know, because there's still people in
the academy that are like, he should have been arrested,
And I get you know, you're we're talking he put
(08:01):
his hands on fucking Chris Rock and it was just
some weird shit that probably should have happened in private,
that happened in public. But it feels like the tides
are shifting, because, like you said, people don't. People like
the consumers, the fans, the people go see movies, they don't.
No one gives a shit about this anymore, and people
have really stopped talking about this. But he really is
(08:22):
trying to get back in, and there just seems to
be the There is apparently like a cohort of people
in the academy who are just like absolutely completely like
do not want to hear anything about it. But we
will see. Because also the Academy also has the most
black members they've had than ever before. Now I don't
know what that nets out to as a percentage, because
going from zero to one could also be the most
(08:44):
been ever before.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
But and they technically lost one when will BT back
exactly right?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Right? But I think I have a feeling, I mean,
hopefully the public sentiment has changed enough. I think it
has because it mostly became a meme and like people,
I'm like Judd Apatow was like that was disgusting, like, bro,
I'll get you cast black people in your fucking movies
and yeah, having a take on this. But also it
(09:10):
sounds like, according to insiders, Chris Rock is still very
upset about it. I mean yeah, and also like you know,
you were talking out your neck and shit.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Happens that same man, you know, this f a fo
you know, yeah, yeah, fucked around and found out and
you know, you.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Know, I don't know. It's just so funny to see
this like still have this like weird life of its
own where he's like trying like can I get back
into the academy? Like did you have your moment of fright?
Is it over now?
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Is it over now? Like here's the here's what I think.
I think the band was stupid. I think all the
pearl clutching was dumb. I understand Chris Rock being mad,
be mad as long as you want to. Bro, you
got slapped on national TV. I get it. Like, and
also I understand I don't care that Will Smith slapped him.
I never did it, just didn't give a shit and
(10:08):
was even saying all that. I'm also like, I, man,
you know, just just take your band and come back
in ten years, bro, Like yeah, even then.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
But I like that's but I think there's just so
fuck there's such a double standard too. You have like
people that you're still like celebrating who have done way
more heinous shit than slap another grown man who was
talking about his wife in public. Yeah, and but it
is wild to just see like like the commentary on it,
like in this one obviously like do not go to
Yahoo for any news because that is where the elderly
(10:39):
just that's like they're they're swirling around Yahoo news. But
the comment section on this article specifically, it sounds like
it's wild. People are like, don't do the crime if
you can't do the time. One person said they gave
him a ten year band. I gave him a lifetime band.
He should have served time. No early admittance, It cannot happen.
It should have been lifetime. One or two hit movies
(11:01):
with good attendance does not make up for what he
did ten years. That's the punishment they need to think
to it. I'm so caught up in the punishment bureaucracy.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You know what after hearing all that fuck it lift
his band? Yeah, yeah exactly, but like if it'll make
these white people mad, I'm all fucking for it. And
also I don't even think he should. And I'll admend
what I was saying now that I've had even more
seconds to think about it. It's not even like take
your ten year band, like definitely, it's just like give
it like one month after Bad Boys does well, because
(11:33):
he's like, hey, man, movie did well? Take it back
in whereas like give it like wait till December, wait
till December, or I want to see, like will Smith
in a movie that the oscars that the Academy can't
deny he'll be liked.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Right this, or what if he did a movie with
Roman Polanski then they'd be like, oh you know what, Okay,
who knows? Another story? Two dollars bill is trending because
apparently there's some fucking company out here. Like on Fox Business,
there was an ad for a two dollars bill with
(12:10):
Trump's mugshot printed on it. And guess what, it don't
cost two dollars. It costs nineteen ninety nine. And like,
unlike you know, the most tacky Trump themed shit that
we see, this one actually doesn't come from the Trump camp.
It's from a company called National Collector's Mint, which is
run by Barry Goldwater's son. Yea very odd intersection there,
(12:34):
but yeah, they're also the same company that were like
they got sued for making like nine to eleven coins
because they made twenty two million dollars memorializing September eleventh,
and also like like their whole thing was that customers
were like, oh, it's official, Like what is that? What
is even an official nine to eleven coin? The Federal
(12:56):
Trade Commission was like, yeah, man, like you're you're defrauding customers.
You're misleading them when you're saying that you're you're selling
the official coin commemorating, uh, the September eleventh attacks. But yeah,
I guess the griffs.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Keep going, man, you know, you keep going, baby, I
mean two dollar bill. It also is just I I
don't know, I don't really I don't even know what
to say. About that, because yeah, it just crised me up. People.
We're like, it feels so normal. Now, it's a side show.
It's a side show people have somehow most people are
(13:30):
heavily invested in if that, if there was somebody on
a two dollar bill that you have to pay twenty
dollars for, like who would it be?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
You pay two dollars bill, a shah day two dollars bill?
I think that would be kind of cool, even though
not in America. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like Whitney Houston. Yeah,
I mean I would buy like anything, you know, all
my R and B soul queens. I'd buy that. With Rihanna,
I guess I have to be American, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 2 (13:57):
American? All right, So that takes it from it would
be hilarious as if Rihanna was on it, I know,
and shit a half night here and we're like, you
know what, we have her on the two But again,
who gives a shit because it's a two dollar bill,
nobody uses them and it's for fun anyway, and there's
not even currency. Can't you spend it?
Speaker 1 (14:14):
You can't. You can use a two dollar bill, not tender?
Oh not, Yeah, I'm sure one that's defaced with a
laser jet printing of Donald Trumps smug shot on it
is not is not legal tender, but hey you can.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Two dollar bills? You can?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah yeah, I actually bring back We should.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Bring back currency that's no longer head Like I would
love to see a two dollar bill, a five hundred
dollar bill.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
I saw a silver dollar yesterday or over the weekend,
and it blew my I felt like a fucking five
year old again. It's beautiful seeing a to a fucking
silver dollar. It really. It's funny how like when you're
a kid and like you have no money, like when
you find out about other kinds of money.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Like ohoh shit, I know, like it's a different currency,
but like it warmed. It was so dope to me
to walk around with like ten thousand dollars like bills
in my pocket when I was in Japan, like like
a ten thousand yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is
I got ten thousand, yeah, like I got ten thousand
(15:08):
currencies in my goddamn hundred.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Thousand yeah, fucking burning a goddamn hole.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Man. Oh y'all don't know. Y'all can't tell me shit.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Wild though too. In Japan, like like pre Olympics, because
a lot of payments stuff got modernized for the Tokyo Olympics. Yeah,
it was really cash centric and it was wild, like
like people will go to the bank regularly and just
pull out tons of cash like and yeah, I was
always like thinking people were like damn, I want to
be like that, but really it's like no, damn, they
don't take credit card. And then finally there's a new
(15:39):
show that seems to be really upsetting the police in
the UK. There is a new sitcom called Piglets. It's
an ITV show. It's a sitcom that is basically quote.
It's set in a police training college and makes light
of the Tories, the Conservative part their policy of recruiting
(16:02):
twenty thousand new police officers in double quick time. Now
you know, they're taking a page out of the Conservative
book in the United States doing law and order. We
need more police, I mean. But also like I think
most places are trying to they're slowly evolving into some
form of a police state. But yeah, the whole thing
is kind of like a slapstick thing. It's like, how
are you going to fucking train twenty thousand people to
(16:23):
be police? Officers in a way that in double quick
time without having some fucking nonsense happening. So I think
that's a funny premise. Would never happen in the United
States because the police unions are like, we'll just probably
just threaten people with violence. But one of the people
who like represents like the police association like in the
(16:44):
UK said quote it is a disgusting choice of language
to use for the title of a TV program. I
find it incredulous that this has passed through checks and
balances at an organization made up of people who at
any time have or may need the support assistance of
the police. Oh, we're doing that one. Oh, so y'all
want to make fun of us. Well, what are you
(17:05):
gonna do when you need somebody to completely ignore your
cries for help?
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah? What do you do there?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Well, what are you gonna do that? What are you
gonna do that? I wonder I should have asked our
guests from this morning's episode, what you know, like the
police are like whenever I watch UK shows, like, they're
always so like, you know, I'm like, Oh, these people
don't look like tatted up freaks who are trying to
kill everybody. But also we all know that policing is
the tool of capitalism to check property. So maybe I
(17:33):
won't get I won't get, you know, dazzled by the accents.
But now, damn could you imagine a show like that
in the US, that shit fucking blow up?
Speaker 2 (17:43):
I love it. I love it. I mean we have
shows that like talk about the corruption in the police
force and also praises the police force and things like that,
where our entertainment is very police based. Yeah, in a
lot of ways.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
We shook it for like six months at the end
of twenty two there, and then you know what, man,
I think I think we can I think we can
embrace the police again.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Right, yeah, we can embrace. I mean even listening to us,
you know, Bad Boys was pretty damn good, man.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Yeah, I mean Smarcus and Mike Lowry or not.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Man, they're not policing. Let us let us have them,
let us have them. They're not police. In my eyes,
it's so funny, man.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Yeah, Like, because I feel like, you know, shows like
The Shield did not show cops in a great light,
but it was still like action the Testosterone Ship that
I feel like, while some cops were like, it's not fair,
they were probably like yeah, yeah, fucking rob the Armenia
and Mafia and ship like that.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Yeah, but it didn't show them in a good light,
but it showed them as still kick ass heroes, yeah,
in their own minds.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
So I'm sure, Like, but that's what's so funny, Like
a comedy about police, like truly, like Brooklyn nine nine
is obviously a comedy and has like it's like sort
of skewing or you know, the police and things like
skewering the police, like in this kind of thing about
being like who are we even training to keep our
streets safe? And why are we even doing it? It
is it kind of writes itself. So I hope those
(19:09):
feelings are not hurt. And I hope uk zei gang
let me know when this show comes out. Uh, I
mean because I want to see I want to I
want to watch piglets, piglets come in this ball. All right, Well, Jackies,
thank you so much for joining me on this trending episode.
Well we are going to be back, yes, you and
(19:29):
I will be back tomorrow with a brand new episode,
so tune in for that. In the meantime, take care
of yourselves, take care of each other, get your shots,
get your vaccines, wear a mask, don't do nothing about
white supremacy. Uh and we will check you later. All right,
Bye peace,
Well, well, welcome to this afternoon edition, Wednesday, July tenth
edition of a restrand for butt chugging. I'm Miles, I'm
joined by the iconic Jackie Sneilo. Great to have you.
Let's get into what is trending today on Wednesday. So
(00:20):
as the title alludes to a Georgia couple was arrested
for butt chugging at a restaurant, you say, what the
fuck am I talking about? Well, over the weekend a
video went viral of a couple trying to butt chug
a margarita at a Mexican restaurant in Georgia. Yes, I
just said that out loud. And apparently this guy ordered
a margarita and somehow got a funnel and his date
(00:42):
got on all four so the margarita could be boothed.
The funnel wasn't working, so he then just opted to
pour it down her crack and drink it. Now, this
was all taped for some reason and went on the internet.
When the restaurant staff saw what was happening, they were
kicked out. Now this woul normally just be like a
salacious story, like, oh my god, can you believe this
couple was doing this? Debraved shit in a restaurant. I mean,
(01:04):
yes we can. But this is where it gets fucking stupid.
So they were recently arrested for public indecency. How well,
the woman in the video went to the police and
complained that someone leaked a video of her and it
was going viral on the internet and she wanted to
stop it. And they're like, a video of what and
she's like, just me, you know, a restaurant or whatever.
(01:26):
Then the police saw the video and had no idea
what was going on. The police had no idea that
this even happened. So she mentioned it, they see the
video and then like, oh, yeah, we're gonna have to
charge you for fucking misdemeanor of public indecency. What the
fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Oh, you just showed us a crime.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Oh so you you know you're dry snitching on yourself
whatever whatever. Yeah, So she really it's just wild to me, Like,
obviously you probably got to be off your fucking ass.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
You had to be either they had to be either
they lost to bet or they had to be like
off their ass high or some shit or some freaking
shit like heteristic shit. I've never butt chugged before. I
hear it's a quick way to get drunk. John Cena
has johnsena and blockers. Yeah, he butt chugged. Very funny scene. Yeah,
(02:15):
And I don't think I'm interested in trying, but like
I would if I was at a restaurant and somebody.
I always when I see stories like this, I'm always like,
why come shit can't happen like this around me? Like,
I just want to be in a restaurant where this
shit happens so I could see how I would react.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
I like, do you know, I feel like some people, though,
there are also people that have like the energy to
somehow be in these places when it happens. Like I
have a friend in high school who some like they
were like the forest gump of like ratchet shit, but
they just were fucking they were somehow there and they
weren't always they were there, and I was like how.
But I get to like, I think they feel something
(02:56):
in the in the water, like a shark, you know
what I mean. They just they just know where to
be it. But for me, yeah, they're not doing that,
uh at my local supermarket or anything like that. And
I saw that, I think, I don't know, I think
if you saw that you'd be like, this is so
fucking nasty, like what the fuck?
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Like you wouldn't even be laughing like it. It depends
on where I'm at. If I'm at like Olive Garden
or some ship, I would probably.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Be like if you're what if you're there with your mom?
Speaker 2 (03:23):
If I was there with my mom, what would happen?
Speaker 1 (03:27):
My mom would probably be laughing.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I was gonna say, I think it would be funnier
like to me if I was there with my mom.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
I don't even know why. It's in the funnel up there,
but trying to eat a market drink of margarita the
mom and be like, these people are happy.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
My mom is experiencing this Like were like, you need
to get out the house, and this is what's happening
out here in the world.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
People are fucking but chugging Margarita's at the Mexican Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Now, world out here, mama.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
This is what it's like to get a theater degree.
It's wild out here. Appliances are trending. This is because
the House, the House of Representatives in our United States Congress,
they just passed fucking measures that prevent the Energy Secretary
from enforcing energy efficiency standards on like household appliances. This
(04:19):
is all part because you always hear Trump talking about
like the water doesn't come out our freezers. Don't like
all this dumb shit because they're trying to paint energy
efficiency as woke. But in this version, it's the like
Biden is being over zealous and he's like declaring outright
war on the people who like to buy gigantic refrigerators
because look, the shit still works, it still freezes. Where
(04:41):
is the damage. But essentially it says it will basically
keep this the Energy Secretary from enforcing energy conservation standards
for refrigerators, freezers, and dishwashers that are not quote cost
effective or technologically feasible. And this is just passed down
party line. So good to see them really have head
in the game. Yeah, I mean everything.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Yeah, you know, I think like I think sometimes I
forget or just don't think, not forget, but don't think
about like all the minute bills or not minute. But
just like the dumb shit that you would never think
our elected officials are talking about, right hey, that they're
talking about this is one of them. And I just
(05:25):
I also don't get I think we're in a weird
place man, where it's just like, oh you like that,
then I don't like it. And that's kind of where
we're at now. It's just like yeah, but.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
It's the same thing when they were like getting mad
that like xboxes had like an energy saving mode, like
when it was like low power mode when you weren't
using it, Like what are you trying to do? Man,
we're trying to say about the earth, Like it's like,
I don't know, it's cheaper for consumers. It's cheaper a
bunch of energy.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
And here's the thing, you don't even notice it. Yeah,
although I will say, maybe I shouldn't out myself on,
but I will say, Miles, you probably know this that
there is a legal limit to the type of shower
head that we can have here in the state of California. Yeah,
I just gotta I just got around. I'm just gonna
(06:12):
say that. I I you know, I I may have
brought bought something, had it shipped to a certain place
and have people ship it take across state lines, you know,
and and and I'm enjoying some extra water pressure. That's
all I'm gonna say. That's all I'm gonna say.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
So you know, It's not like you're out here like
leaving it running all day.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
No, I'm a shower and that's it. Yeah, and I
want to shower.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Not like me. I need to have the like low
flow versions on there because I take a shower for
at least six hours. Yeah. So yeah, just staring straight
ahead with it just just completely disconnected from reality.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Yeah yeah, you need you need zero point eight gallons
per minute.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Yeah, right, exactly. I'm like a horse when it goes
to sleep. I just stand in a shower that's on
and just completely dissociate. All right, let's take a quick
break and we'll come back with some more story right
after this, and we're back. So Will Smith he is
(07:15):
back in the news. I mean obviously bad boys doing great,
bringing people to the theaters and things like that, but
he's now it sounds like he's trying to get the
Academy to overturn his like ten year ban for the
Chris Rock Slab. And a part of me is like,
I don't even the band is so fucking stupid considering
you know that's going on.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
It's like especially now because nobody gives a shit anymore.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Yeah, and it was so whatever, you know what I mean, like,
I think we talked about this, and the there was
also just the pearl clutching from people like this, this
black man went on stage and got violent. He needs
to be arrested, you know, because there's still people in
the academy that are like, he should have been arrested,
And I get you know, you're we're talking he put
(08:01):
his hands on fucking Chris Rock and it was just
some weird shit that probably should have happened in private,
that happened in public. But it feels like the tides
are shifting, because, like you said, people don't. People like
the consumers, the fans, the people go see movies, they don't.
No one gives a shit about this anymore, and people
have really stopped talking about this. But he really is
(08:22):
trying to get back in, and there just seems to
be the There is apparently like a cohort of people
in the academy who are just like absolutely completely like
do not want to hear anything about it. But we
will see. Because also the Academy also has the most
black members they've had than ever before. Now I don't
know what that nets out to as a percentage, because
going from zero to one could also be the most
(08:44):
been ever before.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
But and they technically lost one when will BT back
exactly right?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Right? But I think I have a feeling, I mean,
hopefully the public sentiment has changed enough. I think it
has because it mostly became a meme and like people,
I'm like Judd Apatow was like that was disgusting, like, bro,
I'll get you cast black people in your fucking movies
and yeah, having a take on this. But also it
(09:10):
sounds like, according to insiders, Chris Rock is still very
upset about it. I mean yeah, and also like you know,
you were talking out your neck and shit.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Happens that same man, you know, this f a fo
you know, yeah, yeah, fucked around and found out and
you know, you.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Know, I don't know. It's just so funny to see
this like still have this like weird life of its
own where he's like trying like can I get back
into the academy? Like did you have your moment of fright?
Is it over now?
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Is it over now? Like here's the here's what I think.
I think the band was stupid. I think all the
pearl clutching was dumb. I understand Chris Rock being mad,
be mad as long as you want to. Bro, you
got slapped on national TV. I get it. Like, and
also I understand I don't care that Will Smith slapped him.
I never did it, just didn't give a shit and
(10:08):
was even saying all that. I'm also like, I, man,
you know, just just take your band and come back
in ten years, bro, Like yeah, even then.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
But I like that's but I think there's just so
fuck there's such a double standard too. You have like
people that you're still like celebrating who have done way
more heinous shit than slap another grown man who was
talking about his wife in public. Yeah, and but it
is wild to just see like like the commentary on it,
like in this one obviously like do not go to
Yahoo for any news because that is where the elderly
(10:39):
just that's like they're they're swirling around Yahoo news. But
the comment section on this article specifically, it sounds like
it's wild. People are like, don't do the crime if
you can't do the time. One person said they gave
him a ten year band. I gave him a lifetime band.
He should have served time. No early admittance, It cannot happen.
It should have been lifetime. One or two hit movies
(11:01):
with good attendance does not make up for what he
did ten years. That's the punishment they need to think
to it. I'm so caught up in the punishment bureaucracy.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You know what after hearing all that fuck it lift
his band? Yeah, yeah exactly, but like if it'll make
these white people mad, I'm all fucking for it. And
also I don't even think he should. And I'll admend
what I was saying now that I've had even more
seconds to think about it. It's not even like take
your ten year band, like definitely, it's just like give
it like one month after Bad Boys does well, because
(11:33):
he's like, hey, man, movie did well? Take it back
in whereas like give it like wait till December, wait
till December, or I want to see, like will Smith
in a movie that the oscars that the Academy can't
deny he'll be liked.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Right this, or what if he did a movie with
Roman Polanski then they'd be like, oh you know what, Okay,
who knows? Another story? Two dollars bill is trending because
apparently there's some fucking company out here. Like on Fox Business,
there was an ad for a two dollars bill with
(12:10):
Trump's mugshot printed on it. And guess what, it don't
cost two dollars. It costs nineteen ninety nine. And like,
unlike you know, the most tacky Trump themed shit that
we see, this one actually doesn't come from the Trump camp.
It's from a company called National Collector's Mint, which is
run by Barry Goldwater's son. Yea very odd intersection there,
(12:34):
but yeah, they're also the same company that were like
they got sued for making like nine to eleven coins
because they made twenty two million dollars memorializing September eleventh,
and also like like their whole thing was that customers
were like, oh, it's official, Like what is that? What
is even an official nine to eleven coin? The Federal
(12:56):
Trade Commission was like, yeah, man, like you're you're defrauding customers.
You're misleading them when you're saying that you're you're selling
the official coin commemorating, uh, the September eleventh attacks. But yeah,
I guess the griffs.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Keep going, man, you know, you keep going, baby, I
mean two dollar bill. It also is just I I
don't know, I don't really I don't even know what
to say. About that, because yeah, it just crised me up. People.
We're like, it feels so normal. Now, it's a side show.
It's a side show people have somehow most people are
(13:30):
heavily invested in if that, if there was somebody on
a two dollar bill that you have to pay twenty
dollars for, like who would it be?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
You pay two dollars bill, a shah day two dollars bill?
I think that would be kind of cool, even though
not in America. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like Whitney Houston. Yeah,
I mean I would buy like anything, you know, all
my R and B soul queens. I'd buy that. With Rihanna,
I guess I have to be American, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 2 (13:57):
American? All right, So that takes it from it would
be hilarious as if Rihanna was on it, I know,
and shit a half night here and we're like, you
know what, we have her on the two But again,
who gives a shit because it's a two dollar bill,
nobody uses them and it's for fun anyway, and there's
not even currency. Can't you spend it?
Speaker 1 (14:14):
You can't. You can use a two dollar bill, not tender?
Oh not, Yeah, I'm sure one that's defaced with a
laser jet printing of Donald Trumps smug shot on it
is not is not legal tender, but hey you can.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Two dollar bills? You can?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah yeah, I actually bring back We should.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Bring back currency that's no longer head Like I would
love to see a two dollar bill, a five hundred
dollar bill.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
I saw a silver dollar yesterday or over the weekend,
and it blew my I felt like a fucking five
year old again. It's beautiful seeing a to a fucking
silver dollar. It really. It's funny how like when you're
a kid and like you have no money, like when
you find out about other kinds of money.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Like ohoh shit, I know, like it's a different currency,
but like it warmed. It was so dope to me
to walk around with like ten thousand dollars like bills
in my pocket when I was in Japan, like like
a ten thousand yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is
I got ten thousand, yeah, like I got ten thousand
(15:08):
currencies in my goddamn hundred.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Thousand yeah, fucking burning a goddamn hole.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Man. Oh y'all don't know. Y'all can't tell me shit.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Wild though too. In Japan, like like pre Olympics, because
a lot of payments stuff got modernized for the Tokyo Olympics. Yeah,
it was really cash centric and it was wild, like
like people will go to the bank regularly and just
pull out tons of cash like and yeah, I was
always like thinking people were like damn, I want to
be like that, but really it's like no, damn, they
don't take credit card. And then finally there's a new
(15:39):
show that seems to be really upsetting the police in
the UK. There is a new sitcom called Piglets. It's
an ITV show. It's a sitcom that is basically quote.
It's set in a police training college and makes light
of the Tories, the Conservative part their policy of recruiting
(16:02):
twenty thousand new police officers in double quick time. Now
you know, they're taking a page out of the Conservative
book in the United States doing law and order. We
need more police, I mean. But also like I think
most places are trying to they're slowly evolving into some
form of a police state. But yeah, the whole thing
is kind of like a slapstick thing. It's like, how
are you going to fucking train twenty thousand people to
(16:23):
be police? Officers in a way that in double quick
time without having some fucking nonsense happening. So I think
that's a funny premise. Would never happen in the United
States because the police unions are like, we'll just probably
just threaten people with violence. But one of the people
who like represents like the police association like in the
(16:44):
UK said quote it is a disgusting choice of language
to use for the title of a TV program. I
find it incredulous that this has passed through checks and
balances at an organization made up of people who at
any time have or may need the support assistance of
the police. Oh, we're doing that one. Oh, so y'all
want to make fun of us. Well, what are you
(17:05):
gonna do when you need somebody to completely ignore your
cries for help?
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah? What do you do there?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Well, what are you gonna do that? What are you
gonna do that? I wonder I should have asked our
guests from this morning's episode, what you know, like the
police are like whenever I watch UK shows, like, they're
always so like, you know, I'm like, Oh, these people
don't look like tatted up freaks who are trying to
kill everybody. But also we all know that policing is
the tool of capitalism to check property. So maybe I
(17:33):
won't get I won't get, you know, dazzled by the accents.
But now, damn could you imagine a show like that
in the US, that shit fucking blow up?
Speaker 2 (17:43):
I love it. I love it. I mean we have
shows that like talk about the corruption in the police
force and also praises the police force and things like that,
where our entertainment is very police based. Yeah, in a
lot of ways.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
We shook it for like six months at the end
of twenty two there, and then you know what, man,
I think I think we can I think we can
embrace the police again.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Right, yeah, we can embrace. I mean even listening to us,
you know, Bad Boys was pretty damn good, man.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Yeah, I mean Smarcus and Mike Lowry or not.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Man, they're not policing. Let us let us have them,
let us have them. They're not police. In my eyes,
it's so funny, man.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Yeah, Like, because I feel like, you know, shows like
The Shield did not show cops in a great light,
but it was still like action the Testosterone Ship that
I feel like, while some cops were like, it's not fair,
they were probably like yeah, yeah, fucking rob the Armenia
and Mafia and ship like that.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Yeah, but it didn't show them in a good light,
but it showed them as still kick ass heroes, yeah,
in their own minds.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
So I'm sure, Like, but that's what's so funny, Like
a comedy about police, like truly, like Brooklyn nine nine
is obviously a comedy and has like it's like sort
of skewing or you know, the police and things like
skewering the police, like in this kind of thing about
being like who are we even training to keep our
streets safe? And why are we even doing it? It
is it kind of writes itself. So I hope those
(19:09):
feelings are not hurt. And I hope uk zei gang
let me know when this show comes out. Uh, I
mean because I want to see I want to I
want to watch piglets, piglets come in this ball. All right, Well, Jackies,
thank you so much for joining me on this trending episode.
Well we are going to be back, yes, you and
(19:29):
I will be back tomorrow with a brand new episode,
so tune in for that. In the meantime, take care
of yourselves, take care of each other, get your shots,
get your vaccines, wear a mask, don't do nothing about
white supremacy. Uh and we will check you later. All right,
Bye peace,
