Speaker 1 (00:00):
Give us three minutes and we'll give you everything you
need to know for the day. Brought to you by
Michael schut Bingo and Auburn your home from O Shino.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Is time for Nina's what's trending?

Speaker 3 (00:08):
There's a story again reminding us that we can truly
make money doing anything. Oh what a creator uploaded to
YouTube got them over a million dollars?

Speaker 2 (00:18):
What whoa?

Speaker 3 (00:19):
And it's so simple. I'll tell you what it is
in just a second. Oh my gosh, I sound like
those people trying to get you. Okay, call that tease.
No about really though you do want to hear this.
But first, this is something that I don't know if
we're concerned about or excited about. But this week we
have made history in the weight loss department because the
company that Novo Nordisk is now rolling out the first

(00:42):
ever GLP one pill.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
For weight loss. That scares me though, So.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
That happens this week now for a lot of people.
That's great because it means it's more affordable. Other people,
you don't do injections because that scares you. But it
is going to be offered at like CVS, Costco, weight Watchers,
all of these places so yes, over the counter, that's
what I That's what I'm asking because I was looking
at this trying to find out if you need to
have a prescription for it, which to me feels like

(01:07):
the smartest way. But probably not though, because there are
people that are getting these shots like the Wagov or
whatever that are just you know, buying them from the
person that does their botox.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Like it turned out.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Good that Finn Finn, which came out like in the
like nineties or early two thousands, it was a weight
loss thing that was just over the counter, turned out
real well.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
It was that the one that gave em a real
heart attacks. It was like it was in little weight
loss pills jacks running on those.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
It's not good though. I passed out, like literally you
up though. Seriously.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
I was a personal trainer for a second in the
gym and I was taking some kind of purple pill
that somebody had their name on it, and it was
literally a purple pole. I was trying to lose weight
for like some trip that I was going on, and
I just dropped in the middle of the weight room. WHOA, no,
nothing like it just came out. I just dropped. I
was like, maybe I should stop. Purple pills is the

(02:02):
only thing. And from that moment forward, I never took
another weight loss pill or did anything like that because
I was like, that's so scary. I didn't even feel it,
come on, I just dropped.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
Also, what if you were like holding a weight or
like had it like above your head, you could have
easily dropped that girl. I could have died a million
times in my life. I am thankful to be standing.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
But I'm not saying that that's what's going to happen
with this pill or whatever. And I know and I've
seen it work for people. I just I'm wondering if
we need to have a prescription monitor the intake. I mean,
it's easy to take too much. It's easy to do that,
especially with the pill.

Speaker 4 (02:37):
But also it's like that just that's like leading to
like expectations that are so like not even.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
Take the people aside that are skinny chasing, take all
that out of the picture. Right, there are people that
truly do need a little bit how of hell, yes,
when it comes to that, and how they manage their.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Stuff is designed for, right, who it's designed for exactly?
Why are you looking at me? Though?

Speaker 3 (02:58):
No one.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
Like you said things you know they're designed for just
because are.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
You coming with all these pills falling out of you anyway,
whatever you're doing, just please listen to your body and
be safe. This is a department that I feel like
needs to really be handled with care. Next, this doesn't
This is wild in the streets And Jubile brought it
up yesterday and I didn't take them seriously in the moment,

(03:28):
And later I got a deep dive because my friend said,
we're not talking again until you watch Heated Rivalry.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Oh god. It's a new.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Show that has gone completely viral, and when you look
at how it's described, it's basically about hockey players and
their love for each other.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yeah, okay, and so it's two like hockey players that
get into the league and they're like the biggest players
in the league. But then they have a love affair,
right you know, are they the same team? Well, no,
they're on different teams. They're on rivalries. It's a heat.
It's a very very heated.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Rivalry, and it's like hot hot, and the guys are
hot hot, but.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
It's definitely on the same team, but not when it comes.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
To hot it's so crazy because then I went and
I looked it up, and Rotten Tomatoes gave them ninety
eight percent. You never see shows or movies get that highwayrated,
right exactly. IMDb gave it a nine point one out
of ten. You never see anything that show.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
All right.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Look, I don't care about the sexual preference of the
hockey players in the show.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
I checked it out.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
I watched like six episodes of it because I was
interested in seeing the show that shows you I'm open
to the content, right, I was like, this could be cool.
It is horribly written, and it's basically like here's some
like sort of hockey scenes. It's not even reale hockey
scenes of them playing, but like here's a hockey thing.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Another sex scene.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
That's all it is, right, It's just like there's a
little bit of hockey in between so they can get
to another like sex scene. And the sex scenes are
long and stuff like that. Like that's why people like
it is because of that. But like the actual writing
of it is not very good.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
Well, we can't act all brudish out in the streets
when we're watching shows like this.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
I mean, like almost one hundred percent on Rotten Tomatoes.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
Yeah, that's actually amazing, and Miley Cyrus is so excited
about it she wants to do music for season two.
Wait what Yeah, So the show is big out there,
so if you're into it or if you are watching it.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
I'm not even the production value of it. Looks like
it was done on YouTube.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
So much that I want to watch it, you should
check it out.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
Let me know if I'm that wrong about it, because
I was watching and I was like, the writing is
not very good. It's just like it's like there's really
no solid story. I still haven't found like a super
solid storyline.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
My friend loves it so much, so that just says
you have to watch it because it's all I want
to talk about. What is?

Speaker 4 (05:47):
It?

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Called him Heated.

Speaker 4 (05:48):
Rivalry because IMDb does the like by episodes though like
rate each episode, the overall the overall rating really surprised
me because you never see that.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Lastly, I'll just finish you with this because doubled to
bring up YouTube. I mentioned earlier you can make money
doing anything, and a creator uploaded ten hours of just
a Fireplace, a Fireplace Crackling, and it has been downloaded
or streamed. I'm sorry, one hundred and fifty seven million
times whoa and under ten years and the creators monetize

(06:18):
it so hard They've made over a million dollars on this.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
She's by uploading a video of a fireplace.

Speaker 5 (06:22):
You know what, My mother is one of those people,
because my mom will leave the house and leave the
dog in the house, and she will not leave the
house without putting TV. Yeah, or like a melody of
some sort with a dog on the screen, and she'll
leave it just running all day while she's out doing whatever.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
I do the same thing. It's just a video of
me saying no, get down for three hours. Boy, you
can make money doing anything. Wait, you mentioned mase hours.
I'd say one thing because I'm so excited about this. Yeah,
MINETI is.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
Doing a tinyth anniversary of Hannah Montana. She's either doing
a concert or a tour.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Who ell is excited you?

Speaker 3 (07:02):
I do really like Miley Cyrus his Handah Montana is
a little bit after me.

Speaker 5 (07:07):
I wanted the cricket sound like.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Never mind, everybody in their cars honking the horns right now,
they're with you.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
If someone tell me you're with me, because that's exciting.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
That is What's another complaint I have about the heated
rivalry show. Real, there's a ton of most opportunities in there.
I did not hear one reference to like them getting
together and a hockey puck, you know, like, you know,
how do you miss that?

Speaker 2 (07:35):
What puck? Hockey puck? Think of the ways it could
be used in that show?

Speaker 3 (07:42):
Serious? Yeah, I guess, I guess that's I mean, any
part of the hockey equipment could also.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
Yeah, they really a lot of missed opportunities with the
double on tandras.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:52):
All the episodes are at least nine point nine not
that good of a show.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
All the episodes are out of ten.

Speaker 5 (07:58):
Like I gotta watch it might be a certain crowd
that are the only people still using the rating system.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Or maybe Yeah, Like I don't know, but I don't know.
I just think that, like the writing was not good.
It's not good in my opinion, but text in let
me know if I'm wrong about that.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
That's what's trending all the things
