Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of To
the Trend Though to the Wall. Uh yeah, I'm Jack,
you are Miles. That's an Onyx song, not the not
the rap crew with the ninety three hit Slam, Red
rock Star, Sticky Fingers and the one I can never remember,
(00:21):
but the person on discord, so thank you. I hadn't
heard the names of the people in Onyx or the
song you just played U Slam before we started recording.
I don't think I had heard that since really slam
in that long. I don't think so, because I didn't
remember like that. There flow was all kind of it
(00:45):
was like sort of like if dos effects were like
strung out a little bit, right, Yeah, there was like, um,
all right, well it is October thirteen, Wednesday, and here
are some things are trending this afternoon. Willie chats Baby Chats.
I guess is a weird way to shorten a name,
(01:08):
but um, Willie William Shatner went into space and he
is the oldest person to have been in space. I'm
beating Tommy Lee Jones and Clint Eastwood from that movie. Um,
but he's like, how old is he? Williams ninety ninety
(01:28):
Bezos took him up to space. Yeah, he's like, hey,
you want to check out my new house. He's like,
you don't own space. He's like, that's what you think, asshole. Yeah,
he's like, if I can prevent other people from getting
to it, I do own it, right. Yeah. But yeah,
it seemed like, you know, a lot of people were
excited for him. He seemed you know, excited, I guess,
(01:52):
or nervous. But you know, he said it's unlike anything
he's ever seen. And this guy is sucking. Captain Kirk. Yeah,
you know what I mean. So Chattner says it's good.
It's good enough for me. Um. RBG is trending. This
is from Katy Kirk's book The Hits Keep Coming. She
said that she wanted to protect RBG and so she
(02:14):
edited out RBG, saying that those who kneeled during the
national anthem are showing contempt for a government that has
made it possible for their parents and grandparents to live
a decent life. That's not that's not our woke queen,
not not my r rbgut not surely not was I
(02:34):
I can't believe I put all my eggs in this
basket that this person is just an academic legal nerd
who only had one black clerk her entire time on
the Supreme Court would have such a odd outlook on
what is happening. Wow, they should be grateful, you know that. Okay, Ruth,
(02:55):
ain't that the truth. I'm glad we respect her wishes
to remain on the court. And you know, don't doubt
her wanting to stay uh your jerks um because she
can do whatever she wants. She is Eric Queen. And
now we have which is you know, it's just like
(03:17):
it's one of those things too, or yeah, there's a
lot of good stuff that you did, and then you
look at this and you're like, right, everyone's oh, I
guess a white person on the Supreme Court. Mostly everyone's
a white person on the Supreme I mean Clarence Thomas,
you know, the TBD. But I think, like with this
whole thing, you just realize what the Supreme Court is.
These are not fucking wizards who are like are like
(03:39):
have Obi wan kenobi type just calm and can just
look at a problem and be like, no, this is
the truth part of it. They're very much people who
grew up in a certain era with a certain viewpoint,
and you know comes out in these moments where this
Supreme Court justice is unable to reckon with the idea
that there would be things for people of color or
marginalize people to pro test in this country and just
(04:01):
reduced it to like they should be. I mean, this
government made it possible for their grandparents to live a
decent life as sharecroppers. Jesus Christ, like, what are you
fucking saying? Like that's just like that's how you're like
just so much melts away and you're like you okay,
well m hmm. Jamie Costa is trending. Yeah. I was
(04:26):
just watching it moments before we started recording. So good. Yeah. Uh.
This guy, Jamie Costa is an actor who who he became.
He kind of got notoriety around the time Robin Williams
passed away because he was doing all these impressions of
him and people like, yo, this guy is really good.
And then like a year ago, I know, he did
like Obi Wan Kenobi like fan film and I was like, oh,
(04:49):
that's just kind of cool too, you know, for a
fan film. And then he releases his clip that was
just says like Robin screen test and it's seemingly it's
shot like it's a from a film that would have
been a biopic about uh Robin Williams. Like it's this
this scene where he is uh Robin Williams on the
like backstage of taping Mork and Mindy and he finds
(05:12):
out that John Belushi has passed away. It's like this
very just very powerful five minutes where I found myself
being like, who the funk is this person? And is
this not a movie already? Because this would have won
on award. I feel like on some level already, his
performances like eerie because it starts out and he's doing
(05:34):
like a Mork thing from Mark Mindy and like just
going in and out of the characters, which is like
kind of what you hear when you hear Robin Williams
impersonation um. And then it goes into him hearing devastating
news that his good friend who he had been with
the night before was just found dead, and like every
micro expression that he makes is you know, I didn't
(05:58):
realize I knew what Robin Williams looked like when when
said but it's you know, we've he's been in as
many movies as I feel like anyone over the course
of my lifetime, and so I was just like, holy
sh it, he's like nailing every every one of these. Yeah,
it's no small feat to nail someone who is like
(06:20):
as dynamic with their expression as like Robin Williams was,
and then to like to truly nail it. I was
sending it to like all my friends yesterday. I was like,
can you believe this fucking talented asshole? Like, what then
is this does this guy think he's doing? And then
next question everyone was asking was like, is this from
an actual movie or what the funk are we looking
(06:41):
at here? And it seems like this may have just
been something that he did. Um, probably, I don't know,
at a better a better way to put yourself in
the shop window than to be like, hey, assholes, look
at this thing. Huh hire me? Yeah. His Wikipedia says
he's best known for the likeness of Robin Williams. There's
just that that makes it sound like he just looks
(07:02):
like him. But he's best known as it's some guy
who looks like Robin Williams, but he you know, he
seems like a very talented person who absolutely channels Robin Williams,
And I think it's weird. It's not you. You wouldn't
see a thing that was just like made on spec
like speculative, speculatively to become viral like this. And I
(07:25):
think that's just a testament to how much he was, like,
you know, embodying this person. And I think just for that,
just because of how impressive it is, it's being shared,
and I think that there's something to that. I feel
like this should be a thing, though, Like I feel
like I'm surprised there hasn't been more like this because
(07:45):
production quality can be so high now in the hands
of you know, people with much lower budgets, Like why
not just like fucking just absolutely nail a character really
hard and like get it to go viral. I'm just saying,
why not, Miles. I mean, we'll find him and be like, hey, dude,
we'll buy you a couple of iPhones. Man, let's make
(08:06):
this thing. I'm I'm saying the Quincy Jones uh by
a pick. I don't know, man, I'm just putting it
out there. That would be a wild comedy. They're not
looking ready for this ship. Uh, let's take a quick break.
We'll be right back, and we're back herschel Walker, who
(08:39):
is a former NFL great um and he is now
a Republican ship head, and he was about to do
a fundraiser with a woman who he had not done
a tremendous amount of research on. It would seem who
could blame him for doing not doing any research at all? So? Uh,
(09:05):
the page was at Bettina vt X. Yeah, this person
wanted to do a fundraiser for herschel Walker and her
Twitter avatar is a swastika made of syringes. Yeah, vaccine,
you know, yeah, and we can all agree vaccine, you know. Oh,
of course, of course, of course, the herchel Walker spokeswoman
(09:28):
said it. This is clearly an anti mandatory vaccination graphic. Okay, wow,
what a euphemistic way to describe a swastika made of syringes. Yeah,
so in the circle and everything. Huh does she not
noticed the that it was in the shape of a
swastica when she put it? Swastica is the next thing? Well,
(09:51):
I don't know what a swastica is. What is swastica?
And so I actually, you know how some people are
like I don't see color. I actually don't see swastica's
I don't see hate height, hete, so, I guess maybe
you're this one for having seen the swastika because I
didn't even notice it. I was just like five syringes.
(10:13):
This is a noose tattoo on my neck. I thought
it was like a fun sailing knot. M hm, okay,
see I'm blind to this stuff. Oh gosh, that's embarrassing.
So yeah, it went with first denying that there was
anything bad, you know, this was all very above board,
and then suddenly it's like he has canceled the fundraiser
(10:33):
with this supporter who had the swastica in her Twitter.
LaVar ball is trending. He has shown off some new
Big Baller brand shoes that are retailing for prices that
you normally in the sneaker game only seeing like I
guess high like shitty high fashion, like luxury brands, like
(10:55):
a Gucci sneaker, you know, or like resale like right
right right Goat or stock X or something. And yeah,
it's like six dollars is that? What is six between six?
Depending on the shoot. These all just look like they
look Agita Stan Smith. Yeah, there's Stan Smith's with like
(11:19):
ugly colors and big Baller brand logos. One says I
told you so in flames. Oh my god, this is
I think we have to take this over again. I
didn't realize it said I told you so. That is
actually fucking awesome. Let's start over. Yeah, let's take this again.
(11:40):
LaVar Balls trending. LaVar Balls trending because he just dropped
the hottest sneaker I've ever seen, so, Like, at first
it might look weird because it's black, and then it
has flames on it and like that kind of looks like,
you know, a third grade our project like ship do
do to quote the uh this is important sound board? Um.
(12:03):
But then I realized it says a phrase that I
think we can all agree is cool and a cool thing,
a cool sentiment to get out there right now. It
is I told you so. Hell yeah, I'm buying this this.
Look this photo of LaVar Ball sitting over I'm trying this.
(12:24):
He's he's imitating a famous picture, isn't he. I feel
like I've seen this post because LaVar Ball is at
a big old desk with four's loose sneakers in front
of him, and he's he's like has his like index
finger to his temple as he like looks over his creations.
It feels like something like an early Walt Disney photo
or like a fucking Steve Jobs type thing. You know,
(12:47):
like this pose I feel like is evoking like another
image and I can't quite put my finger on, or
like a picture of a president at work, like like
he's in a suit at a like very distinguished looking
desk with like a big ass leather chair behind him.
And they've seen pictures of like Clinton deep at work.
Um right, but even thought, there's something I feel like,
(13:11):
it's like there's I don't know, I I feel like
I've seen this thing before, but it could just be
this idea of like, hey man, I'm I'm so fucking
important and thinking take this photo right now. Yeah, I've
got my index finger to my temple. Okay, tell me
these shoes on worth seven on at all? Anyways, I
uh will be wearing the I told you so because
(13:35):
that is a cool phrase right now to like, because
the most annoying people in the world are not going
around saying I told you so and I was right
about this, and uh do your own research and ship
like that. So Goth Hospital. Finally, the story that I'm
sure you guys were all waiting for us to talk about. Um,
(13:57):
I think this is I think this is a fake
viral image. It's saying this. There's a US map of
porn Hub's most common search terms by state. The last
time porn Hub, because you know, porn hub has an
INSIGHT's page where they would like they'll release interesting data
based on searches, they have not released anything like this.
I think the last time they did it was from
what I can tell, the week during the election. Um.
(14:20):
And but this one has like it just feels like
a meme because it's almost like distilling certain states down
to like weird what they think are fetishes in the state.
So like the West coast is like a lot of
like Asian, and then the southeast will say, like the
searches are for ebony, and then Florida highest searches boats
like na. This is just a fucking joke one. But
(14:42):
the reason corn hub is the only website on the internet,
like I just want to see boats, man, right, or
just Floridians have to get off the boat boat based
you know. But yeah, and then goth hospital came up
because Oklahoma stop search was golf hospital and everyone was
(15:04):
like what golf hospital? And I think, I'm like, well done,
whoever jokes he did all this nonsense? Um? What is it? Uh? What?
What is the one that is above New Mexico? There
is that um utah that has droopy balls. Check Colorado,
(15:28):
Colorado droopy balls because he had a silver bullet from Colorado.
The Tennessee is is Kevin James. I do like whoever
wrote this, because they just like put these three sprinkled,
these three figure out that Michigan is stepsis or no
racist just as racist? Like what well done? Yeah? Have
(15:53):
you seen did you watch the Dodgers game that Tom
Cruise was at, by the way, and this isn't like
something that I've a lot to say about. But he
looks like a different human being. Yeah, this definitely I
see the picture that you put in there. He looks
I don't know, he finally looks at the age, which
is like an old dude who looks like ship. So
(16:18):
I I was watching the game and did not believe
that it was him, because yeah, it just looks like
whatever magic potion like just poofed whatever whatever spell. He
was under dogs because some people are saying that he
had that this is like him, uh with some swelling
(16:41):
because he had some sort of plastic surgery, which seems
like what we're looking at, but um from the cheeks down. Yeah, yeah,
that the the plastic surgeon. Yeah, I don't know. I
just fucking respect to him for going out looking like
ship looking like ship, not being such a Yeah you
(17:04):
know what is he? He looks like something. It It
almost looks like when Martin Short used to do Jiminy glick. Yeah,
it has Jimmy Glibes has. Some people were like, is
Tom Cruise preparing for the role of Norm McDonald is, Yeah,
when Norm like got real puffy faced for a while.
(17:25):
But again, I'm like, I don't know, dude, this dude
looks like an old old guy who's I don't know.
It look like a piece of ship. It looks, but
it looks like Tom Cruises under like three hours worth
of prosthetics, like he had to sit. Look, I mean,
this man is years old. Like, I don't know how
long you keep expecting him to look like he's forty. Yeah. Anyways,
(17:49):
those are the things that are trending today. We are
back tomorrow with the Who, last episode of the show.
Until then, be kind to each other, Be kind to yourselves.
At the fucking vaccine. Don't do nothing about white supremacy
