Speaker 1 (00:00):
Oh, hello there, and good evening, and welcome to this
edition of the Approved List of third party trenders. Okay,
whatever you have if you ever deal with third party vendors, man,
you know, you know how it is like sometimes you like,
are they are they in listening to prooved vendors that
I gotta get him a system? I don't know, I'm
anyway thanks to Johnny Davis, the trend oh a k
(00:26):
title deity that throws lightning bolts from on high through
Twitter to my screen or Jack's depending on the day. Uh,
that's who's that? Who are you? Who is that? I'm
not I'm not Jack. I'm not Jack. I know that
I didn't know who you were. I didn't I knew you. Okay,
that's right, But who are you? Because I the most
(00:46):
I could tell was you're not Jack. I am Jamie.
Oh Jamie, it's me. What the fool? How you been?
I'm good. I'm wearing my sleep headphones in the day. Yo.
That's a lex because it looks like a cool headband
and you're about to go like shopping and aspen or something.
I look like a rich lady, but I'm actually just
(01:08):
wearing Yeah, you got Aspen like Aspen one percent of
vibes and I'm here for it. Uh. Let's dive on
into the trend of verse. Uh. You see, for people
who are trend averse, please listen up because we'll make
it easier. Now. The first item that is trending is
Liz Cheney. You might remember her as being the spawn
(01:29):
of Darth Vader or uh. She is also when I think,
the third most powerful congress person in terms of the
GOP in the house. Um, and she's getting a lot
of heat because she made the idiotic mistake of talking
nice about Dr Fauci in public against the wishes of
(01:51):
der president. Oh no, oh no, doctor good dcor nice. Yeah,
this story sucks ass there, so he sucks ass man
from Yeah. Okay, so what is so? So wait, I
(02:17):
want to make sure that i'm this This story is
is new to me. Um. So what were the what
was the exact sequence of events here? Well, I think
you've seen the sequence of events is there was this
thing around February called COVID nineteen that began to enter
the consciousness of America. And basically it's this whole thing
(02:38):
of how Faucci has basically always just been saying, like,
listen to the science, not this fucking lysol hydroxy chloroquine warrior.
Listen to the science. I'm telling you, as a fucking
scientist might here to funk with people. I'm here to
tell you, like as an expert in this field, what's
going on and assent Like every day, like every week,
they've gotten more and more aggressive with fauci, whether that's
(02:59):
like Trum saying stuff for Peter Navarro putting an op
ed in USA today, like tearing him down, saying like
everything he told me about coronavirus was wrong. And then
when that blew up in their face, like the administrations like, Okay,
stop talking bad about fout you like that, We've got
to figure out another thing. But either way, she just
I guess during a meeting she had let people know, uh,
(03:20):
you know, they were just saying, look, I'm I think
the other thing that she was backing someone's primary opponent.
It's just getting you know, she's I think at the
end of the day, look, Liz Cheney is part of
like that real conservative machine, like the one that like
you know, started on an entire war in the region
of Earth. Um that like that kind of GOP that's
(03:41):
where she's at. And I know those people play the
long game because they actually are they think about power,
whereas this group, Yeah, I mean this is a change
we're talking about, like dynasty style power. It's a different
kind of like power that they're trying to preserve. God
conservative in fighting is so uncomfortab bowl because you're like,
I don't want to be thinking that Liz Cheney is
(04:03):
more correct than like, oh, this is the story sucks
ass I repeating for I mean, is she Liz Skywalker
if her dad's barth Vader, I don't know. Every voice
that you have heard has been Dick Cheney. Dynastics politics
are so sinister. Yeah, But I get to your point
(04:26):
though too. When you're part of that, it's like, we
don't end up here. You don't end up with my
name being Cheney and me also being here trying to
destabilize the earth unless you kind of play the long game,
Whereas right now the GOP is playing like the reactionary,
like what do we do? Liz Cheney's hard to remind
you we're playing the generational nepotism long game. Okay, you
guys are gonna sunk up this whole system. Of oligarchy
(04:47):
and capitalism, So allow to give a few scraps out
to quell, to quell the proletariat, and then move from there.
The next thing trending is Robin Williams because today is
his birthday. This is just as sad. I think, do
you have a favorite Robin Williams anything like a thing
about that makes you laugh? Um? I just I mean
(05:10):
I love all of his Where I revisited World's Greatest Dad,
uh recently wild because I had this whole thing in
um it was it was prior to his passing. Um,
but I had like this wild conspiracy theory. I'm like,
(05:30):
you can see Robin Williams penis in World's Greatest Dad
for like two frames and I was really I was like,
yes you can, and everyone's like, no, you can't. There's
one point where he jumps in a pool and they
think they edited it out. They didn't. That has nothing
to do with why I watched the movie. I just um,
either way, please go on. Actually, with the Penis anecdote,
(05:51):
I think when he jumps in the pool, you can
see you can you can see it and maybe it
wasn't intentional, but if you're if you're just you know
someone that is really good to watch the movie very
slow at certain points if you're willing to do pause, pause, pause, pause.
There are a few rogue frames, and that's what I
spent my time doing when I was twenty. But but
(06:14):
I think that I was. That movie has just been
on my mind because I think it's an underrated Robin Williams,
did you this only makes you think of it because
I was thinking of Mrs Doubtfire, even though I'm like
a second when looking at it as an adult, I'm like,
I don't know about that as a premise. But did
you see that documentary show Biz Kids on HBO yesterday?
(06:36):
My God, her section and I'm only bringing this up
because of Robin Williams. It is harrowing. I could not believe.
There were some moments that I was like inside, like dying,
like seeing what I was seeing on the screen. When
she talked about how her mother passed away during post
for Matilda, and then she was like I wasn't sure
if she wanted to act. And there's that one shot
(06:58):
of herm like the red carpet where she has like
that tree branch like eyeliner and she's taking the wild
risk or the hair, and she looks so like I'm
being forced to participate in this like celebrity thing. Oh,
definitely worth a watch. Um, really interesting perspective into child acting. Um.
Next up is Jamie. You gotta just bless our ears
(07:21):
with this wisdom? What's going on with the TikTok witchcraft? Okay, this,
this whole story makes me feel years old. I'm I
am going to represent the story as best I can,
but I also find it very confusing. So my understanding
is so yeah. So yesterday there was uh in various
(07:45):
places on Twitter. It was trending that which is we're
hexing the moon. It's more complicated than that. There's a
there's a pretty thorough BuzzFeed news article. This has made
it into so many like well whatever, renowned news sources.
But there was a p is published yesterday by Lauren
uh stripa gal I said that wrong. Here's the deal
(08:05):
with people talking about hexing the moon. So basically what
happened is that there is I was aware that there
are a lot of um teen witches on TikTok. This
is a thriving TikTok community. I knew about this. What
I didn't know is that they are. They have been
(08:26):
hexing the moon. Uh, they've banded together and they've hexed
the moon. They're called baby witches because they're relatively new
to um which culture. So this is which talk um
baby which is hext the faye. I don't know what
the fae means. I think it might just also mean
(08:48):
the moon. This is everyone's head is exploding. Who's listening.
You're not supposed to hex the moon. It's something that
is not done. Is poor taste to simply just hex
the moon. And so people who have been into the
witch community for a long time are like, why are
baby which is hexing the moon? That's so irresponsible? Um
(09:13):
so one to skip a few moon hex the moon? Yeah,
hex the moon is like, once you've put in your
gladwell hours, then maybe consider hexing like a plant, but
not the entire moon. Um. And so now other people
in the witch and community are really upset and find
that to be unethical and irresponsible of the baby witches
(09:35):
on which talks to hex the moon, and now the
baby witches on which talk are responding by perhaps wanting
to hex the sun, which other people in the witch
and community say could be catastrophic so well, then hold
the funk up. If that's the case, then why the
funk aren't the witches pulling up to solve real fucking problems?
(09:58):
If you can, the motherfucking son come like, come come
correct with some like you know, restorative justice, which is
please which talk what has also been involved in social justice?
I I hope that there is he was getting. Yes,
Brett Kavanaugh has been hexed. Yeah, there's a lot of people. Yeah,
(10:21):
a lot a lot of people have been rightfully hexed.
But the moon is blameless, and so why what prompted
them to hex the moon is unclear. I feel like
it might have been just a flagrant showing of of power.
Are these baby which is now like popular, like are
they popping because like people like, oh shit is the
baby which is the hex? The fay? You know, stay out?
(10:43):
They weighed stay out the way? I don't know, Okay,
So I think that's a fair response. This was done
by four baby witches who said that they were quote
trying to prove move a point, but they don't from
(11:03):
what I can tell, they did not specify what the
point was. And now they hex the moon. And basically
what I'm saying is We're fucked. That's my takeaway from
the other, which is response they're like, well these four baby,
which is you know, say what you will? We are
just anyone who associated with the moon is so everyone
(11:23):
is just fucked me, you know, you know what I say,
Hex the Fae not today. Okay, moving on to uh,
the last trending topic is Dave Chappelle. H he went
to go visit Kanye West. Uh as Kanye says to
check up on him. Dave Chappelle want to go check
in on Kanye? I think if anyone who is cares
(11:47):
about Kanye West probably looks at what's happening here right
now and probably sees that there are not many people
around him that are acting in his best interests Uh.
He seems very distressed at the moment. And Dave Chappelle,
you know, like very famously. I remember on the actor's
video talked about how the industry talks to people like
Martin Lawrence and Mariah Carry and using these labels to
like slander them. But really he's like or or even
(12:09):
himself going to Africa and people like wow, could you
turn down all that money? And he's like you have
to ask yourself, like what this environment is like and
what's going on in this industry, and like what that
does to a person like it's it can be detrimental.
And I think on the other side of it, the
this video that came out of the all of them
standing together, I think the funniest thing was that Kanye
was like, Okay, say something like light to bring up
(12:31):
the mood, and Dave Chappelle's is so Dave Chappelle. He's like, well,
the funker, what I don't do jokes? Like he's asked
me to do a joke. He's like, I don't do
lifting jokes. And it's like so awkward and it feels
like I think any family video where any kid was
seen as like a jokester being put on the spot
to tell a joke, and like he responds like fun
that So dam Chappelle seems like he's genuinely a really
(12:54):
good friend to the people in his life. I think so.
I think so. But I and the two of them
have been close. I remember, like very early on the
Chapelle Show, Kanye was a guest. But I think, you know,
whether you think he's feigning these sort of like like
uh moments that are getting all this press because he
(13:14):
has an album coming out or not. Uh, you know,
I think it's either way. I think it's clear that
the trip from Dave Chappelle was probably warranted as someone
who's checking in on a friend. So I hope that helps.
I have wait, I have I have one. I have
one more thing about the which things? Sorry? Please? Oh no?
I well Maryanne Williamson of course. Wait, so I just
(13:38):
want to share. Where's Marianne come down. She's obviously very
she knows about all this. She could explain all this
to you in two seconds. But what she's what hurt?
She weighed in saying, that's got to be some really
drunk or stoned hashtag baby witches if they think that
in the midst of a hashtag secret police invasion of Portland,
the best they can do is hex the move. So
(14:03):
Marianne refocuses the discussion, saying baby, which is she's saying
basically what you're saying. There's there's so many like rightful
hex targets at this time, and yet we're out here
hexing the moon. Irresponsible? What is this? What is what
a year? Huh? Talk the next thing, It's like if
(14:23):
there's like k pops like K Pop Armies versus Baby,
which is I feel like it's the next. Like if
we're doing a bracket, I feel like, okay, so up
next if they get out of their bracket with Twitter
whitches and TikTok, which is, they will face off against
PTS Army. Trying to trying to understand this really made
me feel like a grandmother and I feel really put
in my place generationally. Did you never dabbled with the
(14:44):
with the craft? The witchcraft? However? My mom was heavy
into it when I was a kid, and my uncle
owned a shop. But that's why you have stained now
I have. I have a yes, Well, that's why I'm unhexable.
It's because I have a force of protection around me. Um.
So I'm just really fortunate in that way. But you know,
(15:05):
so this moon hacks most likely may not affect me,
but too many, uh, the moon haks could really be disastrous. Well,
we shall wait and see. With bated breath and fingers
crossed everything. Uh, Jamie, thank you for hanging out doing
a little Trendoh, hang out more later. All right, all
(15:26):
right for the rest of you all, We'll see you
tomorrow morning. Uh, and belone, you know what it is.
Wash your hands. Be careful out there. There is a pandemic.
Try and help someone out. If you can help yourself out,
be kind to yourself, tell yourself something nice that will
soothe you. And don't doom scroll. Stop doom scroll. If
you do right now, stop scrolling. And for the love
(15:46):
of God, don't heck the moon if you do nothing,
if you do anything today, just don't don't heck with
the moon. And as this show has always said, hex
in the Fae is not that gangway okay, And we
will leave you with that some blessings, good night,
