Post Malone’s New Relationship, Packing Peanut Eating Trend, and the Generation Beta Debate

Post Malone has moved on from his ex and is now dating Christy Lee, a Parsons School of Design student with experience in the fashion industry. While little is known about her, her background in styling and celebrity fashion suggests she has a strong creative side. The timeline of Posty’s split and new romance is making waves online, with fans speculating about when the relationship began.

Meanwhile, TikTok has introduced yet another bizarre trend—people eating biodegradable packing peanuts. Some believe these starch-based peanuts are safe to eat since they dissolve in water, but health experts strongly advise against it, warning of digestive issues and contamination risks. Just because something is biodegradable doesn’t mean it’s food.

Finally, the debate over "Generation Beta" is already stirring controversy. Some parents are upset about the name, arguing that "beta" carries a negative connotation, implying weakness. While it’s simply the next letter in the Greek alphabet, online discussions reveal concerns over the potential stigma attached to the term. Is this a real issue, or are people overreacting?

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? Uh,
Posty's got a new girlfriend? Did we know this? What?

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Who?

Speaker 1 (00:06):
I know?

Speaker 2 (00:07):
So he's been engaged to his baby mom but allegedly
he was he was he was engaged to his baby
mommy had a kid back in twenty twenty two.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Post malone as a kid, he does, no, I do? Okay, well,
I'm glad now we all know together.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Stamped so and they were engaged and he was all
about her, but allegedly they separated towards the end of
last year. And now he's got a new girlfriend. Her
name's Christy Lee, and the two of them have been
seeing each other since at least the beginning of this year.
And for the people that did a deep dive on
who she is, she's apparently a Parsons School of Designed
student in New York. So she's doing fashion and she's

(00:42):
already scored an internship and she's worked with celebs like
Bella Thorne and I don't know the other ones. So
so yeah, and so the two of them have started
to make it public. They've been bouncing around holding hands
and we're starting to see photos of him and his
new girl.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
Cute.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yeah, that's just fast whirlwind. I sometimes I just can't
believe it. These celebrities go through relationships like they've had
more relationships in like two weeks than I've had in
my whole life, alons dating and intern Yeah, she's she's
well in, a college student, so she's young.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Oh wait, how old is he?

Speaker 2 (01:15):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:15):
I'm sorry, we just now backtrack. He's fifty eight what
I don't even know if he's in his thirties?

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yeah? Is he? You do that deep dive while move
on to the next story and then raise your hand.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
She got it twenty nine? Okay, it was like, I
don't know why, just a lot.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yeah, So anyway, we'll see how this relationship goes moving forward.
There's another trend that is absolutely ridiculous. It has people
putting something else in their mouth.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Whoa. People are eating packing peanuts. Not what I thought
you were gonna say.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Packing peanuts the kind that come in boxes when you
order something that could be breakable and you don't want
it to break.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
When they're pink, they do look kind of tasty. I
will say that the green ones aren't so bad. Yeah, yeah, no.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
People think they're like actual peanuts because they are biodegradable
and they do dissolve in water, and brands like Lush
even use potato starch based packing peanuts.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
But for whatever reason, this is who's anywhere? Well, the
reason is clear. That's what they're calls. What eggs are
really expensive. They're like, we gotta eat something.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Yeah, maybe, but experts are warning and emphasizing that biodegradable
doesn't mean edible, and ingesting these packing materials poses unnecessary
health risks.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Well, I'm all for this stuff, Like, if you want
to do this.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
And exit real yeah, funny, it's kind of natural. I mean,
it's just dumb. Don't do it. So if you've been
intrigued by these packing peanuts, we suggest no. And lastly,
Generation Beta is just starting to come into the world,
but they're already offen.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Dish that they're called generation beta?

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Is that?

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Why what do you want to be called it?

Speaker 2 (03:05):
It's not the babies, obviously, that are are feeling offended,
but it's the parents of generation Beta that are feeling
a little weird about it because beta traditionally means passive
or weak, so they don't want to have a passive
a week baby.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Even though this is alphabetical, well too late. They already
have passive and weak parents makes it. Yeah, they're so off.
I'm giving me a break after beta. I want my
baby to be Alpha baby. You should start, so that's
