Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's time for Ninas was trending.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Well, we now know why Taylor Swift won't play the
Super Bowl, and it's not what we originally thought. I'm
going to tell you what that is in a second,
but first, there's a man who is trending.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
His name is Adam Lopez, and he won the lottery.
Hey blitting.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
The lottery landed him in the hospital for eight days.
Well he did it right then, honestly, yeah, depending on
how you look at it. But he won the lottery
and then he started partying and he just binged and
binged for three months straight, oh until an ambulance had
to pick him up because he had a bilateral pulmonary embolism.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Oh gosh.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
Yeah, So it's a little bit of a warning.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
I guess.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
It's like gluttony really is just little devil.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
What I would do if I won the lottery, though.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
I feel like I would do seriously.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
Got up.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
That's Vegas man's private jet. Y'll go to Vegas. You
get a private jet and you go to like Beiza.

Speaker 5 (00:53):
Yes, party, but you also enjoy the beach.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
Like that's my bucket. That's on my bucket.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
It's to party and a Beza and I want to
do it before I get too old, because I really
want to enjoy it, you know what I mean, Like
you want to go, I want to go so bad
and go so hard. I'll need eight days to recover,
but I won't be like binging for three months. That'll
be two nights and I'm like.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
Bye, I want to go when I'm way too old
to be in the visa, Like eighty five.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
You are that old.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
You have to wear a fanny pack, you have to
have a really bad tan, and you have to be
wearing a speed up. I don't know why I saw
that vision so clearly, and he's just got this little
bit walk walking down. All right, I'll live there way
too long.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
We now.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
I go to concerts when you can't hear anything anyway,
it's great. I used to come to my ears to
be muffled when I leave, neither just muffled all the time.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
You're not even lying complaining about how you can hear
out of his ears.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Yeah, my allergies are killing me. I can't hear much
out of my ears right now anyway.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
So well, at least you have your eyesight, because now
you can watch the new Game of Thrones prequel that
is based on the Tales of Duncan Egg novels that
were written by George R. R.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Martin.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
But anyway, the new series is called a Night of
the Seven Kingdoms and they were teasing it yesterday by saying,
this winter spring is coming.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
What I've been to House a Dragon?

Speaker 3 (02:15):
I don't know. Let's just like, are we done? Are
we done with House of Dragon?

Speaker 1 (02:18):
But they didn't.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
Did they not get renewed?

Speaker 5 (02:20):
I thought it was gonna be renewed for a third season.
But I'm like that like the follow up to that
or something that was like a prequel.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
It was a prequel.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
That one was all about Kalisi, right, yeah, like her
mom or something her mom. I thought it was like
her like ancestors. Oh yeah, maybe I didn't follow correctly,
But as.

Speaker 5 (02:35):
Fall it fallows, Like how the that like line, like
because she talks about in the beginning of the show
like her ancestors once ruled the kingdoms, so it starts
off with her ancestors like ruling.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
And I really liked it at the beginning. I faded
out on it.

Speaker 5 (02:48):
Yeah, season two wasn't as good as season one, but
I still want to know what happens.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
Yeah, well you have this to look forward to, a
Night of the Seven Kingdoms this winter, spring is coming.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
I'm just thinking John snow Man can't all right.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Lastly, we now know why Taylor Swift is not playing
the super Bowl. Originally we reported and we believed that
it was because she wasn't getting paid for it, which
made perfect sense because Taylor Swift would be bringing in
all of the viewers.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
For the NFL. That was a no brainer. But actually
it's different.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
The reason is because of Travis, not because he asked
her not to, not because he doesn't want her to,
but because she's so locked in on the game while
he's playing. She's like, he's out here risking his life
for one of the hardest sports, doing this and doing that,
and she just wants to be supportive. She's like, I
can't imagine thinking about my choreography while Travis is back.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
He already knows that they're going to go to the
Super Bowl. She's specially read the script.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
That's what she believes. Yeah, well it's not a script.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Ifel is definitely scripted, it.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
Can't be scripted, but they're probably going to It just
feels like it's going to be one of those years.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
You know, did I go to the Super Bowl?

Speaker 1 (03:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (03:50):
And then watually get married like after it, and it's like, no,
is like.

Speaker 4 (03:53):
Exactly, she knows. She's like, well, they're gonna be playing
in it, so in two years, though, I can because
they won't be in two years.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
So I'll do the halftime show in two years.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
She'll do it when he retires though, Oh for sure.
He almost retired this year, but then he decided he
wanted to go out on an app.

Speaker 4 (04:05):
Oh really, I think then, no matter what, whoever performs
in the Super Bowl from this point on has to
have some sort of Drake dis in it.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Lamar did it so bad?

Speaker 3 (04:17):
Buddy?

Speaker 4 (04:17):
This year all of a sudden comes out with like
a Drake dis and then Taylor Swimt does it a
couple of years later, She's got a Drake distrack. It's
like that'd be dope. It's like that became the thing
at Super A halftime shows. You just make fun of Drake.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Oh my gosh, head in the sand. Drake comes out
and doesn't doesn't little distrack on him himself.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
That's what's trending.
