Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's time for Nina. What's trending.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
So there's a family situation that's trending, and I'd like
to know how you guys would react if this happened
to you. So let's pretend your partner is hot and
like to post thirst traps. Okay, so they post the
first trap, it's out there, and your parent likes it.
Oh like, let's pretend, like Jubil, you have like this
girl who's posting thirst traps, and all of a sudden,

(00:22):
your dad's out here being like like like.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
My father wouldn't surprise me. But anyway, well, well you
know what I mean. Yeah, I think I would probably
not take any like read into it at all because
I would just be like, oh, he just is liking
my to support you girl. Yeah, that's probably my initial thought.
I wouldn't think anything of it, but maybe I should though.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Well, the internet is freaking out because Travis Barker, you
know Travis Barker from Blank twin eighty two. So his
son is dating this model and she is beautiful. Anyway,
she posted a picture of herself in a bikini kind
of like all like hot on this bed or whatever.
I mean, She's twe she's like older. But everybody's freaking
out on him because he ended up liking the picture

(01:05):
and they're calling him grouse, saying that he shouldn't have
done it. But I think that he's doing what you said.
I think, yeah, yeah, it's like not the parents fault
that their kids are hot.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
Right, Yeah. And if that's what she posts, what are
you gonna you can't wait for some posts if you
want to like her posts, you can't wait, be like,
all right, when is it not gonna be something that
people are gonna call, you know, not call me creepy
for you just gotta go with what's posted if you
want to like it.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
Well, because sometimes my dad's friends like some of my
pictures that are kind of like what oops. But but
I just think that they're just doing it to support
like the family. Yeah, not because they're being creepy.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
If he commented on it like a fire emotion, that's
that's a little much.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
Like that's weird, that is weird?

Speaker 1 (01:46):
That would be too much, Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
I think this is one of those times where you
have that conversation in your mind, what is cheating? In
your mind? What is appropriate when it comes to my
thirst traps? Or my partner struck. Okay, So if you
are feeling extra stressed out, there is a new way
to deal with it, and it's happening a lot in China,
but it looks like it's starting to make its way
around the world, and that is that young adults are

(02:09):
turning to pacifiers to soothe themselves. What there are now
adult pacifiers that are promoted to help with stress, anxiety,
and sleep problems. So this actually sounds exciting for the
dental industry because if everybody's sitting here sucking on pacifiers,
they're going to have overbites underbikes.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
To name it, so your teeth, right.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
I think that's why I said that. I want why
there was a time when that was in Do you
remember that back in the nineties. In the nineties, Yeah,
like you'd still see it in movies and stuff and
like rave culture. People would always have these pacifiers around
their necks.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Ye.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Why it was just it was a thing. People actually
did suck them. Yeah, they just put them back in
like their adults.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Yeah, just hanging out at school or whatever, taking a test,
sucking on your BANKI yeah, it was normal.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
You just suck on your bankie. Binkies are back. No,
they're not, absolutely not. I'm telling you right now, they
are not back. Don't go buy one.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
We're not doing that. I lose a lot of things
that I have. I just really want to throw a
fit looking for my binky one day.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Why a lot of them come on a lot of
them come on strings. Yeah, they're like necklaces, so that
you have your binkie attached to you at all the time.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Are you get mad at all your friends because you
think of what of them stole your binkie?

Speaker 2 (03:22):
But like what, I don't what is the point of
sucking on a binkie? I just told you to reduce
stress and anxiety. It's a way to soothe yourself, like
you know, sucking on your thumb. That's why kids suck
on binkies and their thumbs and stuff. It's a comfort thing. Bro. No,
be an adult, go for a walk. We're not sucking
on binkies. Well, some people are.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Maybe that's problem. You sound stressed out, you need a binky?

Speaker 2 (03:47):
No, just dip your binkie in a little bit of
tequila and you'll like, okay, well you got me there.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
