Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
What's up, everybody.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
I'm Jimmy shartz Mustard and today I'm gonna be doing
the snort draino challenge.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
This is gonna be insane. Make sure to like and
subscribe to my channel. It's the Jewel show Man.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
The snorting draino challenge isn't a thing, but sadly, that
is something I could see a lot of people doing.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Because humans are a weird breed.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
A lot of us would literally do anything if we
thought it could put us on the level of the
hawk to a girl legitimate. And I know that because
the list is going viral of the dumbest things that
people have done for social media clout already this year.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Let's go over it.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
You can see if you want to try one of
these or just laugh at how stupid people are when
it comes to social media. How about the sleeping in
a pool with alligators challenge? Stop, that's a thing that happened.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Is it real though? Or Ai?

Speaker 3 (00:53):
Because that is not possible, Nina. That is there's death,
that's definitely real. There's definitely a kid out there who's
up to a pool allegabon.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
It's happening in Florida.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
His name is Kai Sinnat. He's a streamer and he's
shocked viewers by spending time in a pool surrounded by
live alligators during a live stream live stream, a stunt
that exploded across social media and raised major safety concerns.

Speaker 4 (01:19):
He became a big deal too, he's a big streamer. Like,
I'm actually surprised that that happened. I didn't know about.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Him, you know, I missed the alligator part.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
The only parent, Well, there's two parents in the room,
Chris and producer Freeze. And parenting today has got to
be such a challenge because you have to sit down
with your kids and go, hey, man, it's not a
good idea to sit in a pool with live alligators,
So don't do that please.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
On social media, I just feel like I need to
say that. I don't know why, but I need to
tell you that.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Here's another one of the dumbest things that people are
doing on social media right now. Chaw chaw slide driving challenge,
that one you have, Nina. I thought about it, and
people attempting to swerve cars in sync with the chaw
chaw slide.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
You know, the dance instructions on that slide to the
lift and I was thinking about doing it.

Speaker 5 (02:13):
When I grew up, my mom would always say that
she'd make the car dance. So the song would be
playing and my mom would do it. She would like,
drive through the lanes and we stopped, we slowed down.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
And we would make the car dance. So I saw this,
I was like, Oh, it's car dancing. You make your
car dance.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
And Nina, everyone in here has said how bad of
a driver I am?

Speaker 1 (02:32):
And Nina's over here about to be swarming lanes, different
slide and to be fair and to be fair.

Speaker 4 (02:38):
I grew up in the seventies and I do have
memories of standing up in my mother's convertible, standing up
over the window, looking straight ahead while she.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Drove listening to Fleetwood Mac.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
I have vivid memories of this, and she talks about
it all the time.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
And you know, I'm like, you probably shouldn't have known that.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
Yeah, She's like, don't tell people that. How you I
am on the radio, tell you the entire country.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
Here's another one of the dumbest things that people have
done for social media. Dangerous train stunts right now is
a thing too, and viral videos people are filming themselves
performing stunts on moving trains, sometimes falling off or nearly
getting hit by the train. Subway surfers weird. It sounds fun,
but also it's very dangerous. I did something similar when

(03:24):
I was in my high school years. Yeah, we and
and you know, there were some underage activities going on
with beverages and we we would we would find we
lived out in the country and we would go out
to this railroad track that went over the freeway and
we would all participate, and then we would sit in

(03:44):
the trusses of the bridge, like the L shaped part,
like two feet from the.

Speaker 4 (03:49):
Train while it went by, and we'd just sit there.
A lot of the train was going by like two
feet from our heads. It was terrifying when I think
about it. I would never do it now.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, there's a lot of things I did as a kid,
but we didn't have social media, you know, I didn't
have a social media account. That were really stupid. So
I guess humans haven't changed that much. We were just
doing it in private back in the day. We were
hoping it would go viral.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Yeah, we were just doing it for the love.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
Here's another one of the dumbest things that people are
doing on social media right now. If you want to
try this one, the skull breaker challenge.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
That sounds entertaining.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Two people kicked the legs out from under a middle jumper.
So someone jumps up and then two people kick their
legs and the head.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
That's the challenge. Wait, it's terrible. If you are up
in the air, how are they kicking your legs when
they come back down.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
They don't need to come down, like as soon as
you jump, they just kick your legs out from under
you and fall on your someone.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
I would fight someone on the.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
Spot, helmets on.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
No. The goal is to hit your head as hard
as possible. Wow, cause concussions, broken bones, and serious injury.

Speaker 4 (04:55):
Okay, that's something like that would make me turn on
any buddy.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Another trend on social media that is one of the
dumbest things people are doing on social media right now,
for clout, the Nicki Minaj high balance trend. You know
what that is? That one's cool though, people try balancing
wants I guess to try this one. People try balancing
in heels on weird objects. It's hard to replicated post.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
It's really really hard.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
I wanted to get Jubil to do this to be honest,
but I was like, we already broke the board once.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
We can't do it again. Actually, I don't know. He's
not that flexible one that I would try to do
for sure. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
Hey, the Kylie Jenner lip challenge is another one of
the dumb things that people are doing on social media
right now. They try to make their lips bigger by
sucking them into cups or bottles.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
I've seen that one. Have a video of my friend
doing this somewhere.

Speaker 5 (05:45):
I gotta find it. Yeah, our lip's gone so bad.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Aren't helping, but this is harmless.

Speaker 5 (05:52):
We're not eating tide pods.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Lips y
