Speaker 3 (00:32):
Timney KFI AM six forty is Later with mo Kelly.
Let's turn it over to Tiffany Hobbs and the Viral Load.
And I'm so happy to be back. I missed you
guys last week. And I have a wonderful roundup, a menagerie,
if you will, of stories for this week's viral Load.

Speaker 4 (00:49):
I can't theme them, I can't link them. They are
literally all over the place. So let's get into it
with our first story involving Airbnb, an influencer, and a
hefty ten thousand dollars bill. What what sounds like the
beginning of forensic files. You have a shoe, a stripper,

(01:10):
and a dog, and then solve the crime. In this case,
not that, but here's what happened. There's a TikToker. His
name is Sean Davis at Sean M. Davis on TikTok
if you want to follow him, and he shared his
cautionary tale in a video that is now viral. It's
gone viral to the tune of over one point three
million views.

Speaker 5 (01:31):
That's a lot. And here's what happened.

Speaker 4 (01:34):
There's this really cool house out in the desert, Joshua Tree.
And if those of you who are familiar with southern California,
this is near Palm Springs. It's about two and a
half hours east of Los Angeles, a very beautiful desert landscape,
and in that landscape are quite a few kind of
archaeological archaological architectural marvels or wonders, beautiful homes. And Airbnb

(02:01):
is capitalized on these homes, as has I have the homeowners,
and they rent these homes out for different sorts of things,
for you to stay in, for people to do, different
branding events, whatever it may be. Well, there's one house
in particular, and I actually saw it online prior to
this story, and again when halle Berry, your buddy and

(02:24):
Halle Berry stayed in it a few weeks ago, because
she showed it's a house that looks like it is
trans translucent, transparent, and it's all glass. It's all glass,
so you can see straight through it in some angles
and other angles it blends in with the background, so
it's a beautiful architectural marvel. It's called the it's called

(02:49):
one of the world's most amazing vacation rentals. It's called
the Glass House, fifty five hundred square feet. It's actually
called the Invisible House by many. Was built by film
producers Chris and ROBERTA. Hanley ninety acre lots gorgeous. You better,
but if you go and you take a selfie, this

(03:11):
is what could happen to you. So this TikToker, Sean Davis,
went to the house, they rented it, and then he
received a ten thousand dollars bill after taking a selfie
outside of his twenty four hundred dollars per night rental.
He says, I was just outside. My girlfriend and I

(03:34):
were there. We took a selfie. We took a selfie
in the bathroom as well. We tagged a brand on
Instagram because that's what we were wearing or using, and
that post was shared because the brand is popular. And
all of that triggered a very minute clause in the

(03:54):
rental agreement that then produced they the ten thousand dollars.

Speaker 6 (03:59):
Fine, wait wait wait.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Am I then to assume then that halle Berry who
stated the same location because I saw all the selfies
and the pictures that she and her boyfriend Van Hunt
were taking.

Speaker 5 (04:11):
Yes, I thought that too. That's what my first thoughts was.

Speaker 4 (04:14):
Of the people I've seen who've been in this home,
I've seen them because they've shared it and or shared
photos or videos and those things have gone viral. Did
they also incur this ten thousand dollars fee? And my
inclination is to believe that yes they did.

Speaker 6 (04:31):
Not that couldn't afford it.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
I'm just saying I wonder because we haven't heard about
it until now exactly.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
But it's a cautionary tale, as Sean Davis said, because
he's saying he was shaken down and no, no matter
how much explaining he did to Airbnb, they were unwilling
to budge. They said, hey, you used the backdrop. It
became a part of your advertising. Therefore you're going to
pay the ten thousand dollars advertising fee that you didn't

(05:01):
see in the fine print. Sorry, not sorry.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
They're gonna get sued and it may be in the
fine print, but if this is such a way to
obscure it, or you know that you're hiding it, I
can see this some lawsuits coming.

Speaker 4 (05:14):
That's the tricky thing, especially when you have buildings like
this that are built for photography. I've seen a building
I've not visited, but i saw one it went viral
that looked to be a duplicate of something you might
find in Santaini, Greece.

Speaker 5 (05:31):
You just went to Santorini.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
There's some home out in the desert that has been
constructed to look like it's Santorini. And if you go,
of course you're gonna want to take photos. Now are
we saying now that many of these homes have this
sort of clause? Perhaps should we be reading the fine
print absolutely?

Speaker 5 (05:53):
Or like me, just not airbnb, just not Airbnb.

Speaker 4 (05:58):
It seems to be that the list of grievance says
against Airbnb is growing with each story, yet and still
people use it. The next story doesn't involve Airbnb, but
it does involve one of your favorite pastimes, MO, coming
back to you for this one. Karaoke cruises. Oh okay,
your next favorite past which is first? Karaoke or cruises?

(06:19):
Which one would you never give up?

Speaker 6 (06:20):
Well?

Speaker 3 (06:21):
I can always karaoke on a cruise, which I did,
But I can't cruise on karaoke.

Speaker 5 (06:25):
That'd be weird.

Speaker 4 (06:26):
So in this case, there's a TikTok that went viral
showing a person at their most vulnerable or almost at
their most john kind of maybe maybe without us fully knowing.
And I'll explain what I mean by that. So in
this thirteen second video that has now gone viral, there's

(06:46):
a woman. And if you're watching, oh buddy, there's a woman.
She's on a water slide on a cruise, the Norwegian
Cruise Lines Ocean Caught the Ocean Loop slide. The cruise
itself is caught the Norwegian Bliss, I guess.

Speaker 5 (07:05):
But she's on this slide.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
The slide is translucent, another translucent situation. You can see
right through it. And she's stuck on the slide as
it hangs over the water. It's a design feature, but
she's stuck. It's a tube. Think McDonald's and those playpin areas.

Speaker 6 (07:29):
That's just me.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
She looks like the inside of a colonoscopy. She looks
like she should be pushed out.

Speaker 6 (07:35):
See that's why I would never get on a slide.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
I don't do stuff like that because it would be
my bad luck and I would end up on my
own show being laughed at.

Speaker 5 (07:43):
And she's a bless her.

Speaker 4 (07:44):
She's scooting, She's scooting through the tube like a failed colonoscopy,
so no water or something that's a real colonoscopy to
there's nothing to flush her out. She just is trying
to goop forward and people are screaming at her, which
you can't hear now, won't play that for you, but

(08:05):
they're screaming for her to scoot and slide and do
these things to try and get her out.

Speaker 5 (08:10):
Luckily, she was rescued.

Speaker 4 (08:12):
There was a rescue operation where they were able to
extract the woman, but not before passengers got video uploaded
it to social media.

Speaker 5 (08:21):
And now she's famous.

Speaker 6 (08:22):
Well at least you can't see her face.

Speaker 5 (08:24):
You can't.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
That's the only saving grace, I would say, because if
her face were truly visible and identifiable, oh, that would
be horrible for life.

Speaker 4 (08:33):
Of the seven million people who have viewed this video
and the two hundred and fifty thousand interactions of this video,
someone knows who she is.

Speaker 6 (08:42):
That's my next question. Have they outed her by name?

Speaker 5 (08:44):
Not by name?

Speaker 4 (08:45):
Not yet at least, And I imagine that's something that
she wants to keep private forever.

Speaker 6 (08:51):
It ain't gonna happen.

Speaker 4 (08:52):
Yeah, you can't be compared to a colonoscopy and anything
good come out of that, no pun intended. On the
other side, we're going to talk about someone who played
a joke on a lot of people for a long
time and now the joke has been revealed and a
new TikTok trend that you shouldn't try.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
Now It's Tough for Them Viral Tiffany Live on Campies.

Speaker 5 (09:24):
Later with mo O Kelly.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
She'll talk about the tough this.

Speaker 5 (09:29):
On social media. Good rolone with Tiffany Hubbs KFI.

Speaker 3 (09:36):
Later with mo Kelly. We're live on YouTube and the
iHeartRadio app. You can see the show right now. You
can see Tiffany Hobbs deliver the second portion of the
viral Lowe.

Speaker 5 (09:45):
Here we go.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
I don't know about you, but I'm not really into tricks.
I like magic tricks are made for kids, but I
don't like when people play tricks on me at my expense.

Speaker 5 (09:58):
And in this case, this person.

Speaker 4 (10:01):
Played a trick on a lot of people and they
were unsuspecting and when they found out the reality, oh man,
it didn't go the way I think he planned.

Speaker 5 (10:12):
So there's a man. He lives in Japan.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
His name is Zongu, and he shocked the Internet and
all of his followers twenty thousand followers by the way,
on Twitter as he revealed himself to be posing as
a woman online.

Speaker 5 (10:31):
Here's what happened. Zongu would post photos.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
These photos online on Twitter would often feature motorcycles and
a young woman flashing peace signs and bright smiles. Perfect hair,
she's on this motorcycle, She's enjoying her life. Attractive, definitely
going to get attention.

Speaker 5 (10:52):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
Well, a local Japanese TV show became suspicious of some
inconsistencies in the photos, like, for instance, in the mirror
of one of the photos of a motorcycle in which
the woman was on, instead of her.

Speaker 5 (11:10):
Reflection, there was the reflection of a man.

Speaker 6 (11:14):
Imagine that.

Speaker 4 (11:17):
They investigated and they decided they need us to confront
what was happening. So they confronted Zongo and Zongu had
to cop to it and say he had been heavily
editing his photos using a filter called face app.

Speaker 5 (11:37):
It's a popular app that.

Speaker 3 (11:40):
Right now, oh my, oh my, that's not catfish, that
is like cat.

Speaker 5 (11:46):
It's insanity.

Speaker 4 (11:48):
How good this gender swapping has become when it comes
to these face apps, these these these digitally conis apps.
So again, this app allows for it's called face app
gender swapping, age altering of facial features. And Zongu admitted, yeah,
you know, I created this profile, I control the account.

(12:10):
I did it for fun and to boost his own popularity.
He said, quote no one wants to see an old uncle,
of which I say is okay.

Speaker 6 (12:23):
See I'm curious.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Is he like slide in people's dms as this character
and this catfish.

Speaker 4 (12:30):
We may never know, but we do know that the
Twitter followers he amassed were expecting to be interacting with
this young woman. Yep, not this fifty plus year old man.
Nothing wrong with being a fifty plus year.

Speaker 6 (12:44):
Old man, I'm one.

Speaker 4 (12:46):
But when you lie and you pretend to be somebody
else and then you get found out, this is a
big deal. And of course it brings into question just
how powerful and dangerous these AI filters can get.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
You could ask Mark, or he'll tell you about how
dangerous they are, and how no one's asking for him,
how no one wants him.

Speaker 6 (13:04):
He's all against it. It's not right Mark, don't you
hate AI everything about it?

Speaker 1 (13:08):
I'm sorry, I was busy working on something interesting.

Speaker 3 (13:12):
Good House is saying, we're talking about how you are
not a fan of AI in any of its forms.
I'm not unless it's really targeted and regulated and monitored
to prevent it from destroying the entire world and our careers.

Speaker 6 (13:26):
No, not on the social media. No it's not.

Speaker 5 (13:29):
It's not that, So it's the opposite.

Speaker 6 (13:31):
In fact. Wow.

Speaker 4 (13:32):
While West speaking of social media for our final story,
I said, we had him a nagerie, no theme, just
a bunch of stuff.

Speaker 5 (13:39):
And this one is weird.

Speaker 4 (13:41):
It's weird, and I have to share it with you
because I couldn't believe it. But it's true. There's a
new TikTok trend. I always say, another week, another TikTok trend,
and this one is asinine.

Speaker 5 (13:55):
It's just dumb.

Speaker 4 (13:57):
And what it is is people are biting into cattails,
not feline tails.

Speaker 5 (14:05):
Not cats, but cattails. The plants or have the bushy,
spiny tails.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
They're biting, taking a bite out of cattails on camera,
butt them eating them and attempting to swallow them.

Speaker 6 (14:23):
Dangerous.

Speaker 4 (14:23):
Yes, here's the thing. It sounds even if you take
the toxicity.

Speaker 5 (14:28):
Away, which you shouldn't. But if you took the.

Speaker 4 (14:30):
Toxicity away, the physical makeup of cattails involve a lot
of pollen, and that pollen, according to doctors and geniuses
like you and I, can coat your throat and cause
you to choke.

Speaker 5 (14:45):
It can block your airway.

Speaker 4 (14:47):
And people are eating these cattails on social media on
camera to go viral, and they are practically.

Speaker 5 (14:56):
Choking to death.

Speaker 4 (14:58):
The stupidest trend I've heard in yes, put your hand
to your forehead. Mo.

Speaker 5 (15:04):
This is a god stupid trend.

Speaker 6 (15:07):
Gosh.

Speaker 4 (15:07):
Doctors are disavowing it left and right. They are saying, please,
don't be a monkst don't don't don't darwin yourselves this way.
There are so many other ways you can go. Don't
do it by a cat's four hearts, likes and follows,
and they're getting them, of course, because this seems like
the more in duress you are, distress you are, the

(15:30):
more your video will be shared. People who are doing
this successfully aren't seeing the same sort of fame or
infamy as people who are choking.

Speaker 5 (15:40):
That's the wonder of the Internet.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
I don't want anyone to die from this, I really don't.
I don't wish death on anyone, but you can't save
everyone from themselves.

Speaker 5 (15:51):
You cannot.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
And if this is how you end up exiting this life, okay, okay,
I mean you've given every tool in the world to
enhance your knowledge, to protect yourself, to learn something, and yet.

Speaker 4 (16:11):
What's that beautiful film that's more of a documentary idiocracy.
It's just it's it's we're all, We're just we've peaked.

Speaker 3 (16:20):
There's another a species phrase which comes to mind, common sense.
Ain't all that comments?
