What's trending?

Speaker 2 (00:18):
This first story is a PSA and it is all
about not sending money to an astronaut texting you from
space saying that they need oxygen?

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Why not?

Speaker 2 (00:27):
And please send that money asap well from an astronaut
texting you from space.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
People are falling for that.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
This woman did and this hurts my heart because she's
in her eighties. This astronaut, I know, this astronaut really
prayed on a good soul.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
Wait a, I don't know these astronauts up there at
the space station or the scamming people.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
My bad. So like, yeah, that's what she's thinking. So
somehow this person got a hold of this woman and
started texting her and was like, Hi, I'm an astronaut,
I'm in space right now, and they're floating. They're going
back and forth and after a few exchanges, he says
that he's under attack on his ship and that he
needs oxygen. It sounds kind of like a movie. And

(01:15):
she he asked her to float him some money so
he could buy more oxygen so he could continue to fight.
Bloat him some money, How do you do that? And
she did. She sent him a million yen, which ends
up being six seven hundred bucks. But still that's all
I mean, seven thousand dollars to send to somebody that
allegedly needs oxygen. But my thing is I would fully
believe it. But where would he get you though? Well

(01:37):
part I mean that sounds like kind of cute, But
where's an America on another planet? Can you come here?
Where was he buying this oxygen from? I think this
is like a Star Wars situation where like we got
multiple space ships up in the air, and like one
of them happens to be like a little store selling oxygen.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
No oxygen market ye.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Note to scammers, if you'd like to pull this scam
on somebody, Victoria's letting you know right now she.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Would call for it. And for anybody in life who's
like a little scared to go after their dreams and goals,
whatever they are, shoot your shot. Man. You could text
somebody and go, I'm an astronaut in space and I'm
in a fight right now and I'm losing oxygen. Can
you send me six grands? I can buy some oxygen.
And you're gonna find someone that will give you that
six grand. So you can always make anything come true
as long as you just keep shooting your shot.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah. True on the good souls, the good humans that
want to just help you. Know you truly can do
whatever you put your mind to. Just lift yourself up
on the shoulders of the souls that shine. Oh dang,
that hurts my soul.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
I mean if you believe that, though, don't you kind
of just deserve it.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
I mean I feel like this woman in particular is
in her eighties and she's just like, oh no.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
But I mean there's a lot of people in their eighties.
If you say, hey, I'm from space and I need oxygen,
they'd be like, no, no way, I know better than that.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
True. Also, is no one else looking over her finances.
She's in her eighties. Literally just said you would help
somebody get oxygen? Are peanut? I'm a good person. I
want to make sure everyone can breathe. Okay, I'm just
also saying in her eighties. Yeah, yeah, let's I don't

(03:14):
know where?

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Yeah, who knows?

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Well? I mean maybe she'd like to spend her money
on some new clothes too, did you guys hear? How
do we feel about post boloone's new fashion collection? I'm sorry? Yes,
he has a new fashion collection called Austin post Apparel.
He just debuted it earlier this week in Austin, Texas. No,
he debuted it in Paris. What how does that make sense?

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Fashion week or something?

Speaker 2 (03:40):
No? No, that literally makes I think I read Paris now,
I'm rereading it really fast. Either way, he came out
with beer in his hand and somebody was riding a horse.
And actually it's pretty cute. I looked at it. It's
like country swag like this one like jean jacket has
Diesel stars on it, my little stars on it. If
you're coming out with country swag, why do you do
that in Paris? Like? Why is your Maybe it's not

(04:03):
always show in Paris because Paris that's where you do it.
If it's a country line. No, I think you know
it is not where I thought you would do it.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Like why debut country fashion in Paris. That's actually the
most fashion thing you could probably do in the fashion world, though. Yeah,
except for the people that are going to be wearing
it are not going.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
To be countries people, right, right, right, They're gonna be
fake country now yeah, fake country boots, fake or cowboy
boots and fake cowboys.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
How much stuff costs? Is it expensive?

Speaker 2 (04:36):
I didn't look that up. I started to look at
his Instagram that had some of the stuff on it,
but no, I don't know. He had a ten gallon hat.
How do you walk around with that thing?

Speaker 1 (04:48):
That's what the standard cowboy hat?

Speaker 2 (04:50):
Ten gallon?

Speaker 1 (04:51):
Yeah, I'm thinking water. I'm sorry, I don't know what.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
I don't know, man, ten gallon sounds like a lot
that's been walking around saying sis matters. I don't know.
