Speaker 1 (00:00):
Give us three minutes, and we'll give you everything you
need to know for the day with Nina's What's Trending.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Nintendo has just issued a statement on the relationship status
of Mario and Princess Peach. Oh Day said, Princess Peach
and Mario are good friends and help each other out
whenever they can.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
Bro We're definitely good friends.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Right, Like I'm gonna risk my life they're a really
good friends.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Yeah, I mean, actually I probably would, but to save
the princess from the cast, they're more than friends?

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Is not there more than friends? I mean maybe you're
just taking a break or something. You know, Oh maybe
that isn't their relationship trouble? Maybe until I'll try to
figure out now they're just friends, it says, not even
friends with benefits.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
What doesn't lie? No, that's what's going to try to
keep a peg.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
I don't know why they did that, because it just
makes more sense and makes it more exciting to think
it's like a cute little couple like or maybe not
even a couple like Mario's Like I'm going to prove
to her that that's how I always took it, Like
Princess Peach and him worked together, but he was trying
to try to win to get it and trying to
win her over.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
Maybe that is it. Maybe he's trying to She.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Wasn't into it because she likes Walluigi.

Speaker 3 (01:04):
Who likes wall Oigi?

Speaker 2 (01:05):
But anyways, someone out there and she likes bad boys
and that's how she keeps getting trapped.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
So, in case you were curious, Nintendo has just cleared
it up.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
Good. I'm glad the was in sleep there.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
This is really interesting. Bill Gates says tattoos will replace
cell phones, bro what so? Yeah, I don't know. He
believes that at some point smartphones are going to become
obsolete and that these little tattoos with tiny subdermal sensors
will serve as our main means of communication, monitoring our health,
and digital interaction. So they're going to be able to

(01:41):
access the Internet. There are gonna be ways that you
can communicate with other people.

Speaker 5 (01:45):
So just getting planted so where you can just like
it's a tattoo, automatically.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
Get all the information, like you can go onto Google.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Yeah, toying with this kind of stuff for a while now,
like ways to put it in your body or on
your body that will like, if you're going through the airport,
you can scan that instead of your passport, like it
says everything about you.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Basically, that makes sense.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Well, they're trying to make it convenient, but it also
feels like it's just that they can track you even
more than they can't. I mean, they can track you
with your phones anyway. But I guess that would make
it harder to get kidnapped. I mean, oh my gosh,
that would make it so hard for criminals. You'd be
so busted.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Well yeah, but that's the other thing they're scared of.
If they do something like that and it has your
financial information, they're scared of criminals like cutting off your
hand or something like that.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Oh my gosh, that's so scary thing.

Speaker 5 (02:30):
But what's funny is you technically need a device to
scan you, so like you'll still need your phone.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
I don't know, it might be another tattoo from somebody else.
Other leaders like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg have also
echoed similar views. But ce be Apple CEO Tim Cook,
the Apple CEO anyway, you know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (02:48):
He disagrees, But.

Speaker 5 (02:49):
Didn't we already all kind of agree on that Apple's
going downhill like nothing's new. I still have an Apple phone,
but nothing's really new every time they come out.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
So what you're saying is if Tim Cook disagrees, then
you disagree with Tim Cook because he's the CEO of Apple. No.

Speaker 4 (03:02):
I think if Tim Cook is the one that's.

Speaker 5 (03:04):
Gonna design it, it's either gonna look like Apple and
it's gonna be like come out with.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
The new version every year. That's gonna that's the same thing.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
But if you don't upgrade your tattoo or whatever, then
all of a sudden, it's gonna stop working.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
Yeah, so randomly, but it's not. They don't do that
on purpose, but it's just gonna happen that way.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
We're just gonna be covered in tattoos because you gotta
get a new one every time you want up to
be expensive too, do you have to pay for your tattoo?

Speaker 3 (03:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Victoria in the Book of Revelation about the Mark of
the Beast, bro what never mind?

Speaker 3 (03:31):
That is crazy. That's what's trending.
