Speaker 1 (00:01):
Jersey News, Hot Gods, every stay on top in the woods,
shovel shut down. Good times. That time of year where
the football season is about to crank up in about
(00:21):
a month and there's now the discussion who will headline
the super Bowl halftime show. That's your Hollywood Shuffle news today,
because there's a betting side that you know, uses a
lot of the way they like to market themselves as Hey,
we take a lot of sources from the New York
Times and Axios and Politico and MSNBC and Fox News
(00:43):
and all these places, all of them, we see what
we can find, and then that's we get like an
educated guest in this week. It goes a little side
by side with Vegas as well. They take sources in
them mash them together. So that's called calci. I like
to go to them for things sometimes. What is a
very calshi? How's that? It's not that different than the
poly market. It's like they have very interesting things that
(01:05):
you can bet on. We can't because we're in Texas.
But like, what how is it spelled ka l s hi? Calci? Okay,
I mean maybe it's cowls. Yeah, it's fine. Isn't that
like a brand at Whole Foods. I don't know that
does sound like it does sound that. Okay, give me
some Calshi red and also places back for me. So
what they have listed for me today is ten, fifteen,
(01:29):
twenty names who will have a Super Bowl Lilfetime show.
They have the odds on them. They're odds are a
little different because they go stock market style betting, so
it's a little different than Vegas odds. Need some futures,
but clear number one. And then from there it's Clara
on there. Claro's not on there, and man, Clara would
not be a high energy super Lifetime show. I saw
(01:50):
them at it. I saw Claro play at Lollapalooza on
Friday or Saturday, and there's at least two or three
members of the band during much of the set or
just sitting criss cross apple sauce with headphones on. She's
walking away at a keyboard and hey, get it right,
it's she. You're talking about her backing Ben. Yeah, okay,
that's why I said, right, she's clearly a she. She's beautiful.
(02:11):
Yep uh so not Clara. Good guess, thank you, Miley Cyrus.
That's number three on the list. And there's a pretty big,
heavy rumor about Miley, and Miley checks out because she
is in the jay Z family too, So you have
to be in the jay Z family otherwise you don't
have a chance. If you're an enemy of jay Z
or Beyonce's, you're not gonna be even up for it.
(02:34):
I said his day. But that song about Dancey of
the USA, and it's got her where she needs to be.
I think she'd be good because she'll do some covers
and things like that, so she'll be fun. She has
fun upbeat songs too, and bring her dad out.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Do you imagine the pressure from her dad to be on? Hey,
baby girl, I know you got that gig. What about
I just come out and do Old Town Road just
a little bit, just my part. I'll bring out that
gay black guy too the super Bowl, he'll sing it
with me.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
We're gonna need to do better than what happened last
time when he asked the crowd to fill in because
his guitar was messed up. Oh what about kid Rock?
Hold On? Here's the last time that Billy Ray Cyrus
performed live just for the sake of it. Hold on
you hold on? What's that flying Billy. This so good.
(03:24):
We're on hold waiting to hear We're waiting to hear
the Billy ray screens. All right, all right, just hold on,
kat is looking for it. Just stay hold my god,
what is happening? Whatever? The last thing you had open
is still open to have time. Put your hands together
(03:44):
now like that. If you encourage you about keep going.
They told me to kill as much time as possible.
Is that? R FK? We're getting ready of red Tie?
Does anybody know the worst break the heart? That is
how the Super Bowl halftime show should be? Anybody know
the one? And then Drake comes out? No Miley third though?
Good guess? Thanks? Uh yeah, I don't. I don't know.
(04:09):
I mean, who are the biggest stars in the world
right now? Olivia Sabrina, Bad Bunny maybe, oh, bad Bunny.
Good guess I would say Bad Bunny is four on
the list. But he has technically done it before. He
has just not as a headliner, but he was out
there with Shakira and j Lo. Okay, that was like
a decade ago. Yeah, okay, it was like five or
(04:30):
six years ago. It was okay, yeah, I remember we
did a whole segment. No one could name more than
one j LO song. Yeah. Bad Bunny, Uh yeah, Bad
Bunny is a good guess, thank you. Sabrina Carpenter. She's
like tenth or eleventh. Olivia Olivia Rodrigo is not on there.
Billy Eilish. Billy Eilish is up there towards the bottom though,
(04:52):
Post Malone there's number two right there. Three, Miley Cyrus
two posts Oh, Jelly roll Girls number one, Benson Boone No,
uh Black Sabbath without Ozzy. No, but your rock representation
on this list at number five. Metallica, it's times in
(05:13):
San Francisco. Oh dude, they're giddy. Oh yeah, they have
to at San Francis. They have to. They've never done it.
So jay Z's gonna walk in and say, guys, Metallica
is doing I know he's not. The NFL does have.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Some say in this.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
It's not just it's just not autonomously jay Z. Dude,
this is absolutely it kind of is no Kevin, stop
you think for a second the lawyers that run the
NFL would just seed all power to jay Z. They're lawyers.
They don't do that. Dude. You're forgetting that there was
a whole Kaepernick thing. In the late twenty tens. That's
(05:46):
why in racism is still on the field. I know.
But they're not. They're not going to seed all power
to someone outside of the they're lawyers. It's the NFL.
DOCI not doci. Goat cheese, not goat cheese. I will
say down there towards the bottom at twenty, make Megan
the stallion and in deep love with Klay Thompson to
(06:07):
be great. If they just set up like a goal
and he came out to hit threes. She was singing,
He's going around the horse and she's out there and
aud our buddy Bobby Sessions is out there rapping with her.
He kind of dope. Actually, what about Nicki Minaj and
Dez together? Really no point to have Dez in there.
There's way down there. They have oasis on the list,
way down there. They're not God the fighters way down there. Yeah,
(06:32):
number one, a number one jay z Oh, dude, he's
in charge right now. No, I know he's in charge.
I don't know. They probably signed some agreement for this
many years. You're gonna help curate the halftime show. He's
got a lot of power here. I know, he's got
a lot of power. But I'm just saying the NFL
doesn't give away old power. I know he's been running
(06:52):
it for a while. And would he even want to
do a super Bowl halftime show? What's he got done
an album since twenty sixteen? Right, Highly doubt it, But
maybe him and Beyonce do something together. I think they're
trying to. I think that's the sucker bet. I don't
think jay Z is doing it. Miley is the heavy
gossip I heard last week. I think her Metallica guess
is great in San Francisco makes sense too, which one,
(07:15):
Yeah in San Francisco, Yeah, would make a lot of sense.
And they've never done it. They're the biggest rock band
in the last four decades. All Right. There you have it.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
The odds on favorites to host the Super Bowl halftime
show coming up in just over three minutes.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
What's going on in Dallas. Let's think a teacher. That's next.
