It's the Fresh Show. This is what's trending? Offshoot question
for Rufeo.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
I'm talking about my niece who's Yeah, it's kind of honestly,
she's kind of being a dick.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Yep, yeah, it's Freeenager.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
No, it really upset me because not only that, but
she didn't want to talk to me yesterday, and then
I started like fake crying like any other forty three
year old man would do, and she starts laughing. She
thinks that's funny. She thinks it's funny that she hurt
my feelings.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
No, they don't care. She does not care. That's why
you move on to me. You lost, Polly's gone. Well
that's the vision.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
I want to have a chat with Polly and be like, hey,
you know you need to you need to maximize this
relationship because right now you're the favorite, and that can
easily change right now. The way you're acting is this
one over here, this little this little sort of.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah right, yeah, that's I mean.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
I didn't want to say it, but it's kind of
just a she's like, she's a female, little mini version
of my brother in law.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
He just get worse. I have a seven year old
niece at seventeen right now.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
Also, it doesn't. They don't. My question was, is she
going to grow out of it?

Speaker 3 (01:04):
Like you're not you're not funny no more, you're not
you're not cool no more, You're just like you're so annoying.
I'm like, okay, really yeah, yeah, she's gonna talk to
me this way, yes, humble, and then they start to
get nice again.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
I know it's not when they're like twelve, thirteen, fourteen
more adults.

Speaker 4 (01:22):
I'm telling you, that's when they go back to their moms.
Girls are wild, like girls are real sassy for it.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
But I thought she.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
Would maybe like, uh, butter up, you know the men
like her grandfather, me, her dad, Like I figured she'd
lean into that.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
So she's just too cool for everybody.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
Yeah, she's going to be like that that guy that
texts you about Lalla tickets.

Speaker 4 (01:41):
That's she needs tickets, so like you yeah, so wait
for that.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Yes, yeah, we need I'm concerned about this, Jason, like
we need to make very good friends in Dallas, where
they live, because we're not far away from where or
we need to like get some poor radio station to
put us on there something because like even if it's
like a community.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
I don't care.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Like at this point, if it's like an what like
a CBE radio like whatever, only truckers can hear.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
We need presents there because I'm gonna need to start
gaining access to stuff. Yeah, or she can just come here,
well I guess, but I just it's gonna start here
pretty soon. Like have you has your seven year old
and need started asking you to take her to stuff?

Speaker 3 (02:21):
No, I take them the stuff, you know, like Disney
on ice. They're not asking specifically. I surprise him with
stuff like that. Okay, that's to try to be cool, right.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Uh huh, because the specific questions are going to start
maybe like ten eleven, when she really figures out. I mean,
if we're still in the air, it's many years away.
I mean, God, who knows, I might be dead, but
I got to figure out how to be able to
get her stuff because she can be you know, she
gonna hey, yeah, you know what, remember that time I
called when you were three and a half and you

(02:49):
I fake crowd and you laughed at me.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Never mind no tickets for you. But I mean, it's break.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
What's going up?

Speaker 2 (02:55):
I don't know, it's very upsetting. At least be nice
to me. You want she wants stuff from me, gonna
be nice to me. I don't like it. I don't
like it one man, I don't like it at all.
It's crushing every day for me. If she's doing it
with my brother in law, no doubt she is. He's
a sensitive little guy. It would really upset him. I
think if she, if she like, shuns him because she

(03:15):
was like daddy's girl. So now I don't know. Yeah,
there's three and age stuff. I can't handle him. Jason Brown, Yes,
live from h Where are we today?

Speaker 5 (03:26):
Which we're next to them?

Speaker 2 (03:29):
The sem river? Oh, the sam that has just been cleared. Okay,

That was excellent, good job.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
Okay, So what's happening Jason's Olympic update everyone?

Speaker 5 (03:52):
Yeah, so last night was huge for the women's gymnastics team.
They go old so exciting and Simone Biles is the
most decorated Olympic gymnast of all time. Now, yeah, so
that's crazy. She has five gold medals. That's insane. That's
pretty good.

Speaker 6 (04:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (04:10):
US gymnasts, yes, US gymnasts, yes, And but everyone else
did really good by the time, like Simone had to
go on floor like the last event, they had like
already what like because everyone else on the team is
so good. So like Jordan Child's awesome, Sumi Lee.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
They could have put me out there at the end.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
Literally, it could have been like all right, and then
they just pinched hit, you know, and then they put
me in.

Speaker 5 (04:30):
Yeah, and the guy from The Bears was there. That
was really cute.

Speaker 6 (04:36):
Caption.

Speaker 5 (04:37):
Yeah yeah, Redemption Yeah, the Redemption Tours. What she was
they were calling this, Yeah, like because obviously everything happened
in Tokyo, right.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
So yeah, no, there's a caption specifically talking about I'll
read it later what everyone was saying about her.

Speaker 6 (04:51):
Okay, So her husband knows that she's the most decorated
Olympian of all.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Times, and make sure he knows with all due respect,
I mean, I don't really know this really know this guy,
but compared to her, he's kind of a I'm not
gonna say nobody, but like sorry, you know you're married
to Simone Biles.

Speaker 5 (05:07):
Right, Oh yeah, he was there like he was doing
a scorecard.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
He was doing a scorecard.

Speaker 5 (05:14):
Yeah, it was cute. He was like all into it,
and he seemed very supportive and like, yeah, so now
they're all going to compete, like and they say all around,
so like now we're not done.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
There's more.

Speaker 5 (05:26):
So they're gonna like now win individual medals hopefully, so
that'll be good. Also, women's rugby, those ladies stand on
business like, oh my god, they won the Browns.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
They yesterday finish.

Speaker 5 (05:42):
And that was the first medal for us for rugby
in like one hundred years.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
So I also talk about the phenom who is the
pommel horse mand.

Speaker 5 (05:52):
My little dorky guy and his last name I can't
say Stephen.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Say that right, Yeah, this man is very controversial decision
by the men's gymnastics team to bring a specialist. All
he does is the pommel horse. That's what he does.
That is his thing. And he sat there for four
hours waiting for his opportunity. And what did he do.
He went up there and he nailed it. He was
sleeping like Rufio. But someone explained to me why eight

(06:22):
three five. By the way, Bellahamine is answering the phones now,
Belahamine our new intern. Ben Hamen, you know, moved for
love and refused to work remotely, so uh so off
with his head. And then Bellahamine is our new interest
answering the phone. She's new at it, and hopefully she
doesn't have any sleep in her voice, because she's also

(06:44):
new to waking up at three thirty in the morning together.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Yeah, sleep, she's had a.

Speaker 5 (06:50):
Day of training.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Let me see here, Uh, hold on, let's see. Let's see.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Yes, that's sleepy. Yeah, let's see if she even knows
that answered the phone call the radio? All right, I
mean she knows this now she probably well, let's see
if she's even listening.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Just as you remember, Ben didn't listen to this girl.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
Oh no, that is that was very alert. That was
very alert. No sleep in the voice. That was excellent.
Thank you, nice shot, Belahamine. Go ahead, girl, that was
really good. It wasn't like that's how I sound. Yeah,
that's how I saw for the first hour of the show. Yeah,
as he came by, that's but I was curious why

(07:35):
this was so controversial. Is it because he wasn't multidisciplinary.
Is that why it was a controversial choice, because because
all the other guys can do more than one thing
and he can only do the one thing.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
So, And if you watch the previous Olympics, the pomo
horse is the thing that always stopped the men's team
from getting on the podium. Four years ago, eight years ago,
the pommel horse was the their Achilles heel.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
It used to be hard for me too.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
Right, So that's why they just brought this guy in
who just figure it out. He's got the highest score
and that's what that's what he did.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
Yeah, they were seeing if I would do it this
year and I said no, I said give it to Steve. Yeah, yeah,
I said give it to Steven and his it's his
time to shine, you know. And he's a it would
have surprised you that he's a Rubik's cube guy. Oh yeah,
self proclaimed nerd. He said, yeah, yeah, I know, that's
that is exactly what he said. He said, nerdy pommel
horse specialist what he calls himself, which to Penn State,

(08:29):
and he was brought on to the see him exclusively
for his skills in that apparatus, competing only in the
one discipline and he had to sit for three hours
waiting for his chance to go.

Speaker 5 (08:38):
He looks sober and his girlfriend is beautiful. They were celebrating.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
Oh he has a girlfriend.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah okay, yeah, all right, I wasn't sure you know
what everybody was into?

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, okay, good.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
Yeah, the first medal in sixteen years for the US
men's gymnastics team.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
So any other Olympic thoughts this morning for the Daily
Olympic Uh.

Speaker 5 (08:57):
Yeah, so tonight we're gonna see more mensinets as they're starting,
like the all around where they do each you know,
each little thing and then BMX tonight. That's exciting. And
we have twenty six medals total the United States, but
China's beating us.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
They have seven gold tohow.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
Sometimes for fun out like like on my cable, I'll
go on my Exfinity, I say cable, but that's like
what I'm saying coke, PEPSI, and it is. There is
a difference, by the way, Oh it's a huge difference.
But I'll say cable, but I mean, you know what
I mean, like cable, almost no one has cable. Everyone
has some form of satellite or internet apparatus. Now, yeah,
you know, what I mean streaming, Like when I say,

(09:34):
let me answer the phone, I guess I'm answering like
a mobile phone, you know, like old timey terminology.

Speaker 5 (09:39):
It's still a fun baby.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
Well, I guess, but it's a mobile I don't Anyway.
My point is I'm I'm scrolling down and I'll go
like to like the deep cut channels to see, like
what sort of sport did I watch right now that
I've never I don't know anything about.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Like if you go to like U E.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
E is broadcasting the Olympics, like they're not putting their
best stuff on E okay, but like any channel you want,
there's like eight channels showing the Olympics. Every sport you
can imagine. So I like to go to the ones
that I think are underappreciated because you got to watch
and see that these people like whatever sports it is,
some obscure sport you've never heard of. These people are
the most passionate people on the earth about whatever it

(10:18):
is that you're watching, like ski and then shoot something
and then ski some more. You're watching these people that
like this is what they do? This is it? Like
well yeah, like yeah, like break dancing is a spartancing.
I'm just saying, I don't know why I mentioned ski
because there's no skiing in the summer Olympics. They do
have finding they have they have Well, you cross country

(10:40):
ski and then you shoot something and then you I
don't know how they come up with that one. Then
you cross country ski some more, then shoot something out. Yeah,
but like that, these people have practiced their whole life
for this moment and it's on like C Span four.
It's very upsetting hard to find. Also, why is your
thoughts while we're doing sports on the NFL? Of course,
training camp is going on all over the country. The

(11:04):
football season is about to begin. One of the one
of people's favorite parts about the show is the weekly
NFL football updates. But there have been some some rule
changes to the NFL that have been announced.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
Oh good.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
For example, there are new kickoff rules. Okay, And I
want to know what you think about this chasing on
side kicks? You're illegal before the fourth quarter?

Speaker 5 (11:24):
Thought, Oh yeah, I don't like the on side kicks anyway.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Okay, you know, all right?

Speaker 5 (11:30):
Do you even do it before the fourth quarter? That
doesn't even precisely a fourth quarter move?

Speaker 1 (11:35):
Right?

Speaker 2 (11:36):
The team must be losing to kick an on side kick.

Speaker 5 (11:41):
Fair sounds good?

Speaker 1 (11:43):
Yeah right, and the team.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Must announce their intention to kick an on side kick
ahead of time.

Speaker 5 (11:48):
Oh that's stupid.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
So no more of this.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
Thing where they like make it look like they're gonna
kick it long and then run around the tee a
few times in there, or the little kickoff thing and
then kick it.

Speaker 5 (11:57):
Well, why would you tell the other team what you're
about to do?

Speaker 1 (11:59):
Now? I don't like that one, Like, let's surprise know.

Speaker 5 (12:01):
What you're doing, and then stop you.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Let's surprise for safety though, So what you're a football player,
I mean I care about it. I care about your safety.
I do care about your safety. But at the same time,
it's like you're playing at violent sport. I have a
problem with some of these safety rules. A highly controversial take.
I guess, like I'll watch some of these things and
they'll say, oh, that was an illegal hit or whatever.

(12:24):
And like, if you've ever been to a football game
in person and you watch these guys run at like
twenty miles an hour, they full speed at each other,
and then all of a sudden, you're supposed to just
be able to stop on a dimond, not hit the guy, Like,
I get it if it's an illegal like low nasty mean,
you know, trying to injure you hit. But like when
I'm out there, when I'm competing at a high level
and I'm running at people fast, I can't just stop.

(12:46):
Like when I was running that five k last week,
I couldn't just stop. You know, I was running and
they'd been like, just stop right there, No way, I
got too much athleticism going on, pumping my arms. Wow,
you know what I'm saying. I can't right there, No,
I need a little time, right, So I don't know
some of these rules I think are are They should.

Speaker 5 (13:06):
Have made a new rule of outstand like don't let
them do the flags anymore because that's just so annoying.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
And don't let them do the flags.

Speaker 5 (13:12):
Well that's the rules, but like it makes it longer.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
We're saying the same thing, right, no more rules?

Speaker 2 (13:20):
Right?

Speaker 5 (13:20):
Why are there rules?

Speaker 7 (13:21):
So you want XFL football is what you're saying. Hell yeah,
I guess this is messed up. Have you noticed it?
Everything is a subscription model now. Like back in the day,
you could use the same Microsoft word that came on
your computer ten years ago, and it was old ass word,
but it was word. I mean, how much has really

(13:42):
changed on words of a few things maybe I printed
out I probably don't even do that. I use the
same font Times New Roman if it's professional.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
I can't remember the last time. Yeah, I don't know,
I've made that up. But I don't use area when
I'm writing something professional. Oh you know, I'm talking about
Times New Rollman for professional application. But I guess I'm
using a word right now. I'm looking at a word document,
but like really, like when was the last time I
open up a word document and I'm like, all right,
I'm going to write a letter now to somebody, Like, No,

(14:14):
it didn't happen, So why can't I just use the
same old ass one that was free on my computer? No,
now they make us you got to pay ten bucks
a month or whatever. Yeah, for like almost everything. Almost
everything's a subscription model now because they don't they don't
want you to just be able to get it one
time and get it for free.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
Yep, have you not noticed that? No? I mean I
know we get like like.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
Word is part of like work stuff, But if you
go buy a computer after a certain period of time,
all that stuff expires and then you have to pay
to regain access to it.

Speaker 5 (14:43):
To get the key on it. I'm not asking for it,
like they're making me use out of one's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Well, I'm saying the reason why they do that because like,
for example, everybody in this business used to use the
same audio editing software from like nineteen ninety four, and
it really hasn't changed significantly, like in a way that
we really needed to. I mean, it does a bunch
of other stuff, but like for the bare bones basic stuff,
I mean this, they were literally installing a two thousand
and four version of it because it was free on

(15:09):
everybody's computer. Now though this same audio software you have
to pay whatever, so much dollars a month, so many
dollars a month to be able to keep it, but
you get all the latest features. I don't know how
to use anyway, but there's no more free stuff anyway. Now, Logitech,
the company that makes mouses, are talking about a subscription
based mouse.

Speaker 5 (15:28):
What see now, no this mouse?

Speaker 1 (15:32):
I agree.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
They're saying that the mouse at Logitech could possibly be
a subscription It would have premium hardware, artificial intelligence integration,
and continually evolving software, and it might be the last
mouse you ever purchased. He envisions owners getting the updated
software through a subscription model. It would cost two hundred
dollars for this mouse. That's another thing. You're gonna make

(15:56):
me pay every month or every year to use my mouse.
You better make the mouse cheap as hell, Like, make
it cheap because I'm paying for it every month. Don't
make it two hundred dollars and I have to.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
Pay it for it every month.

Speaker 5 (16:05):
Oh that's crazy, Like.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
My mouse could possibly not work one day I didn't
pay my subscription fee. It's a mouse. I'm looking at
it a thing, right, two buttons? I mean, what could
it possibly do? Give me the old ass mouse? Plug
it in. I'm fine, I'm fine with him. But anyway, Yes,
a subscription based mouse is trending today. And in case
you guys are wondering, the Cambridge Dictionary has added five

(16:29):
new words. Well they've added more than thirty two hundred, actually,
which I didn't. I don't know how they come up
with thirty two hundred new words every single year, but
here are the ones that are of note. The ick
has made was made popular by Love Island, the reality show.
The ick a sudden feeling that you dislike someone or something,

(16:50):
or are no longer attracted to someone because it's something
that they do. So the ick has been added to
the dictionary. Boop a gentle hint or touch on a
person's or animal, nose or head. I y k, y
k if you know you know has been added to
the Cambridge Dictionary. Face journey. Someone's face journey is their

(17:12):
series of expressions. Is they react to something in real time?

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (17:16):
And then chef's kiss has been added, where a movement
a chef makes to indicate that something tastes good. And then, finally,
a bunch of gaming technology has been added to the dictionary.
For example, the gaming world, a speed run means to
complete a computer game or in part of a computer
game as quickly as possible. Side quest a part of

(17:40):
a computer game that has its own aim and story,
but it's not part of the main game.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
Okay, well anyway?

Speaker 7 (17:46):
Side is that like a side like a side mission?

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Side? Okay?

Speaker 3 (17:53):
A sleepy voice on there not yet, not yet.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
Look at all these texts. People are up about this.
They never said about the subscription stuff. I'm so happy
you mentioned Microsoft subscriptions. It's so annoying. Microsoft charges subscriptions
now so they can afford those ten dollars gift cards
to the Uber eats gift cards that they mess up.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
Yeah, no, I'm serious.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Like if I want to use the old timey ust
of old timey software that's free, then let me use it.
But no, not anymore, because they want to make money
off me every month. And even if you like back
in the day when you could buy expensive like my
dad uses it's a mechanical engineer uses like a like
pro e like a CAD software, and it used to
be was very expensive, but then you owned it, it

(18:34):
was yours. Now I think he has to pay every
month for it. So like they get you long term,
they don't get as much up front, but and the
actually they probably charge you upfront and make you pay
the subscription fee and it's like but you get all
the new features, like I don't want the new fee.

Speaker 6 (18:47):
It works fine, And they know you're in a desperate
situation most times trying to do a document or do
like get a file done, so you sign up for
the subscription and then you forget to cancel it and
then two years later you've paid them all this time.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
And I think they have an uncanny way of knowing
when you when you really need to use it. Oh yeah,
because it's like I'll log in, it will be like,
oh it needs a subscription for this, and I'm like, but.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
I gotta look at this.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
Okay, fine, so I do it and then now I
got to subscript. I had pay to do the thing
one time. Yeah, it's very upsett.

Speaker 5 (19:17):
It is upsetting. You need a law about I'm outreached.
I don't like it.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
Yeah, let's I mean all these NFL rules.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
Yeah, I am nine nine a year for Microsoft Word
in my laptop.

Speaker 5 (19:27):
I open it maybe once a year.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
See, yeah, there you go for that one time.

Speaker 2 (19:31):
This is what I'm talking about. Someone's like, those are phrases.
I'm like, I know, I don't know this what the
Cambridge Dictionaria does. Like I'm a journalist. I report the news.
I don't make it. Okay, so just relax the entertainer report.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
We get to it. Next.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
Blogs are audio journals waiting mat the phone is new
this morning. A tiebreaker would show bea Shelley Game show Wednesday.
