Speaker 1 (00:00):
Brought to you by I Muscle shut Bingo in Auburn.
You're home from Machino. It's time for Nina's what's trending?

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Well, researchers have just revealed that we now know which
artist people listen to most during their intimate times. WHOA.
I'll tell you who it is and see if you
like to push play on that artist in just a second.
But first the creator. I don't know, it could be well.

(00:26):
See but if you're a fan of Squid Games, there
is a new Squid Games game show. It's Squid Game
the VIP Challenge that's coming out. So they had their
first version that did pretty well, and now this is
the VIP Challenge with celebrities. So Malby from Spice Girls
is going to be on it, Dylan Ephron from Traders,
Tristan Thompson, who's Koy Kardashian's baby daddy, I'm like, and

(00:48):
a couple other ones. But the whole thing kind of
sounds like it's going to be like a Survivor meets
Squid Games, which is basically anyways right, No, but it's
like about alliance and stuff smarty.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Well, I've never.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Watched wood games, but if it's called squid games.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
I'm guessing it's just about squid games.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Well, squid games is like you you're fighting for your life,
like like the show Survivor is Survivors, like alliances and
how you're going to use your brain to get through
these things. I mean, they're actually not gonna get hurt
or whatever because it's TV show up anyway, if you're
into it, that's coming. Have you ever thought about how
much money you spend in the annoyance economy? I didn't
even know that.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
We wanted to say that.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
We have dubbed a part of our economy the annoyance economy,
and it's costing consumers. And that's when you're waiting on hold,
blocking junk messages, clicking cancel on unwanted subscriptions, and all
of these things take up actually quite a bit of
your daily life. So they decided to go and tally
it all up, and the annoyance economy is costing American
consumers one hundred and sixty six billion dollars a year

(01:51):
in lost time than money.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
That's crazy, Like financially, that's crazy, but I wonder how
much time that is too.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Yeah, Well, if you have to call for something and
you're on hold forever. Yeah, and it takes her to
deal with it that. After that, you don't have much
energy to do much else. You're like, man, that I can't.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
I just got through with that.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
How is it tally up to money? I guess I'm
not really sure. Like it's saying junk fees. Okay, so
like you're clearing out your junk email that's going to
cost you ninety billion dollars a year because of time.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Yeah, time's money. Well, probably spend all time doing that
instead of the things that could make money.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
So that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. That's
why Victoria never cleans out her inbox. Yeah, because time
is money. Maybe I'm gonna have for that and I
gotta make money.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, I know so, but it's true, Like I you know,
that's why I would love to have a personal assistant
if we want me to start a podcast and things
like that, and I'm like, yeah, I would love to,
except I'm doing Aaron's ninety percent of the day right now,
and then things like that, You're like, I gotta handle
this thing, this thing, this thing, this thing. I'm like,
I don't know where is the time where?

Speaker 3 (02:52):
Yeah, where am I going to fit that?

Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah, it was the best.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
I used to work with this guy who had his
wife lay out his clothes every morning. She would pack
his lunches every day, and it's very sweet. They're a
very happy couple. But then he'd look at me and
he'd be like, Yeah, can you meet at this time
or can you do this? Blah blah blah. No, I
have to do my own launch for myself exactly the
grocery store, take myself to the doctor.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
I don't think how much more profitable you could be
if you didn't have to do that.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
I mean a lot of people have talked about that,
like with the you know, marriage declines and what and
then roles in marriages and everything like, there were benefits
to having specific roles in relationships, but with the economy
the way it is and everybody having to work as
hard as they work, it's just not really possible.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
I mean, you could have a husband that makes those
doctor appointments for you too.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
Yeah, yeah, each.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
Other that lays out my clothes.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
I wasn't saying gender either way.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
You're a team and yeah, yeah that's nice.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
I was gonna say gender specific. I was just saying
having roles.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
Yeah, yeah for sure. Also where the way that companies
work people to death in this country, You don't have
time to do it, but except for on your weekend, right,
Like a lot of people run errands on the weekend.
Their erin is there are weekends when they're supposed to
be like checking out, relaxing, distressing, are spent doing all
the stressful.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
Things right right because you can't because.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
You're expected to be at a desk from nine to
five when you have four hours of work, so you
sit there for there are other four hours like playing
games on your phone trying to figure out how to
look busy. And these companies don't care. They don't go, hey, man,
you could take an hour and a half lunch today
if you need to to take care of some errands
or go to a doctor's appointment.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Yeah, I think that's why people love going to Costco
so much. It's like Disneyland for grocery shoping.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Like one's totally.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
Okay. Lastly, if all of that exhausts you and you
feel like you just need a little alone time with
your somebody, are you listening to?

Speaker 1 (04:39):
Wait?

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Can you guys guess? First, the most listened to artists during.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
The Little Dickykshi six too short. Okay, well.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
All very great guesses. No, it's the weekend that that
makes sense.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
There his concert, Yeah, that makes sense.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
There's a lot of people just sexy Time. I was like, oh,
I want to.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Go on Spotify and look at like the sexy Time
playlist that people make ya just to see what they
use some of you listen to, You're like, not at all.
He would never give me.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
I remember when I was young, I used to think
that Ninagh Nails was sexy, and now I listened to
it and I'm like, that's kind of disturbing Nails.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
I would run so fast, I'm not going to dinings.
That's what's s trending.
