Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello everybody, and welcome to this edition of Sibling Tramp
pet Rash. And that's just some ship I came up
with off top because I didn't have time to skim
the discord, So shout out to me. I'm Miles, that's Joel.
You already know what time it is. We're gonna do

(00:22):
at what is trending pond God's Internet right now? Um,
what's the first one we got here? Oh my god?
Hashtag Stabler returns. If you're an SVU fan, for you
know Elliott Stabler, He's the king. He likes to punch
petals in the face. Okay, he's got the ass of
fantos its place like Christopher Maloney, and he's returning SPU

(00:48):
tonight at eight pm. For I think it's like maybe
a one time only thing. Maybe it appearance right, isn't
it like with organized crime or something? Yeah? Yeah, so
he's coming. These guys want coming. It's called organized crime
and it's the best Christopher Maloney vehicle ever because he's
just going after New York mobsters. I love a New
York accent. I love a oh whoa all of it.

(01:12):
I keep really looking forward to chemistry between these two leads.
The fan base is y'all. Probably if you know anything
about me, you know I'm obsessed with fandom. I just
love fans. I think that even if I were not
a part of the thing, they like because you love
to see people having joy, you know. Yeah, yeah, there

(01:33):
there is a tipping point there. There there is a downside.
But man, watching this fan like this. If you go
to the Stabler Returns hashtag on Twitter, the fans are
lighting it up. They've been counting down the days. I've
seen a lot of journal entries of like Stabler's home. Um, listen,
y'all have fun tonight. You live your best dreams all
your life. I'm gonna just be watching from the sidelines.
Rootyll On. Yeah, I just know, you know. For me,

(01:55):
he's just who always be Gene from what hot American Summer?
And I can't I can't un see that. And not
that I don't. I mean, I'm not really a big
Law and Order fan, but I remember when I connected,
I was like, wait, that's Gene. What he is funny
and he's like cream from America. He's gonna go fondle

(02:16):
his sweaters. He's making fondue with cheddar. Um. Yeah, well, great,
I love it because it's funny. The only reason I
knew that is because I was being bombarded because it
is Mariska Harget, the other person in Yeah. So I
remember just seeing their two faces and it was like, Okay,
without knowing, I knew what time it was. The sexual
tension is brewing all of my are they have tension

(02:39):
show on the show. There's like some there's some chemistry.
It's also a little bit of like a fan wish.
You know, there's a lot of people that ship this couple. Uh,
they're our cup of our own pages apparently lighting up.
I haven't checked it out, but again, kudos to all
the fans just enjoying this reunion. I'm still happy for you. Guys.
Hey is that gang? If you're with it? Like you

(02:59):
know me know what's your what do the what do
I need to see to get on the Maloney train
because right now I'm on the Gene train when it
comes to him or the Stabler train. Um, next up, baseball?
You got Miggy, Ziggy, Jiggy Poppy, all these like nicknames
are trending on Twitter. I'm like, what the fun It's
opening day? Okay, Yeah, people are really excited. I was

(03:21):
going through transitsycle. This is a lot of baseball, which
I don't know jack about. I played two seasons softball
in middle school. It was okay, are you a regional
baseball fan of in your Chicago teams I lived, I
could not that I would, not that I would, but
I could spit on Rigley Field for my first apartment
in Chicago. So could you see games for free? Like?

(03:44):
Was it that kind of a much more interesting was
when people came to play the stadium, like Elton John
was doing his final tour. I was living there, so
we would sit on my back patio and listen to
the concerts. Oh my god. Yeah. It was always wonder
about because you always see those things, like whether any sport,
there's always like an apartment or something. You're like, they're

(04:05):
getting this ship for free, and I'm always wondering, like
what that is like, because whenever I'm near like the
Hollywood Bawl, I'm like, I wonder what the people live
on the other side of the hill, Like how angry
they get about the concert? Regularly you can't see into
it because they've built risers on tops of things, and
even some of the apartments surrounding it have like little
risers on the top so people can watch the game
from like a V I P section across the street,

(04:27):
I guess. But you could hear Crystal Clear, so if
you wanted to just listen to the game, you could.
But we listen to a lot of the concerts. It
was funny. What a what a coincidence? What a blessed coincidence. Um.
Next thing that's trending is Milania. If I thought I
had escaped the grips, I thought that was, you know,

(04:49):
going into retirement. Uh. And you know, at first made
me like, you know, maybe maybe you know, think about her.
You don't know what she's going through. I'm like no,
at this point, you're like, you know, you know what
you knew what it was when you signed. Okay. Um,
So Milania is trending because the conservatives, you know, they
they will fucking eat up any little crumb that they

(05:12):
can use to try and reform into some kind of
slam dunk on a Democrat. And in this version, and look,
I'm not gonna lie, Jill, my girl, Doctor Joe Biden
could have done could have finessed the Espanol slightly better.
It's nothing it's nothing, and I'll play it for you
right now, so say it with me. See the future

(05:36):
is okay? Okay, listen. I know you didn't grow up
with the classic Disney Channel movie Starting America Ferrera, where
they really clearly tell you how to pronounce the study.
But you know he gave it a shot. Yeah, you're trying.
I think all Spanish speaky people should be allowed to
roast you for a day, you know, full twenty four
hours and just you know, just for the pronunciation. Yeah, yeah, pronunciation.

(06:01):
It's all good. You're laugh because I'm laughing. You're laughing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Look,
let's not get it fucked up because every this is
the thing now Conservatives like, well, you know Milani is
fluent in Slovenian, French, German, Italian and English. Okay, well
that's not spanding. Okay, Well her husband put children in
and also she's a racist. She's a fucking berth to like,
get them, what do you want me? We don't have
no time for that. We don't have anything to talk about.

(06:23):
Dr Jill Biden is a distinguished educator, so you can
give her a little leeway there because for the most
part she's trying to give back rather than where coats.
I don't give a funk with the kids in cages?
Do you really, motherfucker? Anyway, let me get on this plane.
So but she tried so hard, Jill. I know you tried,

(06:45):
and you were talking. I saw the I think you
had the United farm Workers logo behind you and people
like it. It looks like a look could be a
Nazi thing. I'm like, please find the Nazi thing. Go
to bed, take a rest. Okay, pick up a book.
So let's try some different things than what you're doing. Yeah, okay,
be out of the new cycle twenty four hours, trust me,

(07:08):
because we have we truly have more things to talk about.
Trust me. Elliot Stables returning to Night Mork, So you're good.
Get that ass is back on TV. Let's go. You
got big, you got the big yeeks though? Is that
to do? Yeah? Okay. There's a lot of Twitter means
and such going around highlighting Christopher Maloney's uh prosterior it's

(07:29):
it's up there, it's lifted. Okay, you could say Cardi
b'es up is about Christopher Maloney's ass, if you wouldn't
be wrong. Oh yeah, right, you can bounce a quarter off.
That thing toned good for him skipping leg day, you

(07:50):
know what I mean, not like me sitting down for
days on end as my gluteus Minimus hand Maximus just
drivel and turned rotting vines. He's working it, he's doing them.
He's working that kettle bell. Uh. And then finally this

(08:13):
picture that you brought up, this is I'm gonna tell you.
I'm gonna reveal something to you. But why don't you
tell me what this picture? Because you put this in
the dog and he said, this is trending. Listen. I
don't know what it is, but it fills my heart
with light and joy. I know for effect. This is
from the King Kong versus Godzilla movie that just dropped
on HBO Max. It's circulating Twitter. There's Millie Bobby Brown

(08:37):
talking to the guy that plays her dad. I believe
her dad is saying the words. It's a picture of
us TV screen and there's caption. So yeah, I'm really
going in the dark here. But it says this podcast
is filling your head with garbage. And I just want
to give you all the jump on this clear meme
that's about to happen. Okay, be ready to swamp. Not
just TV these pages, but every podcast page with this image.

(08:59):
It is a dog her. She's distraught, leaning forward, clearly
having just told her father Rock, and he calls her dad,
being like, you're listening to these podcasts and you don't
know what you're talking about and filling your head with guards.
It brings me just joy and light and I'm gonna
use it. I don't know how yet, but it's mine. Okay,
Now I want to reveal something. Yeah, my podcast host,

(09:20):
Sophia Alexander, who I do the other show for twenty
Day Fiance with her husband Max Borenstein, wrote this film.
So I took this as a personal attack on our
podcast for Day Fiance, So I'm gonna take that as disrespect.
So when I see you, Max, it's ugly. My man,

(09:43):
that's amazing. I could do a whole podcast on just
this line of giant What happened? How annoyed were you
with your wife when you wrote this exactly? I asked her.
She hadn't seen it. I just after you put in
the dock. I sent it to her immediately because I
knew what it was, because Max wrote, like all the
other cam and like he's skull and other guy Zilla films,
and I was like, what the funk is this just

(10:05):
kind of joking and she's like what And the thing
didn't come in time, so she was kind of confused
in the picture hit and she's like, oh no, it's
like I'm gonna ask him. I'm gonna ask him. You
the movie. I think she may have or may have not,
or I don't know. Maybe I think I just told
I was like, this is gonna be a meme, just
so you know, and and I will begin to tell
people that this is about our show. So amazing, that's

(10:28):
that's and like a true ego satistical person, I've made
this about me. Yes, yeah, so you know, guys, just
you know, send me to take my classes. And it's
called centering yourself, no matter what the Miles Gray method

(10:49):
might well, um yeah, that's that'll do it for today's trends.
We're gonna be back tomorrow with good episode tomorrow, real real,
real fun episode. They're just getting better, you know, to
the point where look, you know, Jack, you keep keep
on your trip a little bit, man, really really recharge
those batteries, you know what I mean, because this might
end up looking we might have f one Racing Team

(11:11):
Politics entering this podcast pretty soon. Oh I'm ready. Yeah right,
We're like, hey, I come with my own fans. You know,
I have investors that will bring more money to the team. Also,
which one the big crash? Oh no, I'm about to
watch that episode from season three. We watched it this
morning anyway, y'all. So super producer and Josane has us.

(11:38):
She she's fully spun us on F one Drive to
Survive on Netflix. I was like, yo, this show. First
of all, I wasn't really working with racing in general.
But then f one to me like I knew about it,
but I was not really understanding it. This show does
a very good job of helping you understand, like why
it is so intense and it's not just cars going
round around biting your nail to see who's going to

(12:00):
finish in sixth. That's a new level of sport love
that I was unawaring these guys crying because he got
fifth place. He's so happy, the team is elated. He's
getting promotions and advertisements off this fifth Okay, this this
is a sport unlike any other. It is so cool.
There's so much craziness when you decided to switch teams.
You have to wait till the end of the year

(12:21):
to actually switch teams. And there's like fifteen people in
the sport people in the sports, so it's hot mess,
and everybody knows each other and they're stacked right on
top of each other for each competition. The drama, it's
it's exactly I didn't think it would have it and
has it in just boatloads or car loads if you
will race car loads if I will, and I will

(12:42):
uh the other thing about it in despite though it
being like the athletic manifestation of malignant global capitalism. Um,
at least they're a black man is its greatest driver.
So shout out to you Lewis. And he's swaggy and
he's been knighted. So yeah, oh okay, Well tune in tomorrow.
See we got all derailed by the f one talk,

(13:04):
but tune in tomorrow for another great episode. Thank you
Joel as usual for being here. See you soon until
until the goodmorrow. We bid you Ado. Please stay safe
out there, wash your hands, wear a mask, get vaccinated
if you can when you can, uh, and don't do
