Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of Trender
Speaker 1: Galactic Planet Terry. Trender Galactic Planet Terry. That was what
Speaker 1: I was trying to do. Did you ever hear kill
Speaker 1: the children? That was like the thing that I said, No,
Speaker 1: that's when they're galactic killed the children. It's like one
Speaker 1: of those auditory things where people like it could either
Speaker 1: be intergalactic planetary or intergalactic killed the children like green needles,
Speaker 1: and like you kind of have to really want it
Speaker 1: to be killed the children, But like when you listen
Speaker 1: to it and I feel like it's Planet Terry, but
Speaker 1: I get it. Damn. That's one of my kid's favorite songs.
Speaker 1: I wonder if they have a lot of questions about
Speaker 1: why I'm playing it for him. Uh, well I am Jack,
Speaker 1: you are Biles. Yeah, and it is too too, too,
Speaker 1: too too two is there? Yeah? But it was one
Speaker 1: of those two to to to ah yeah, to to
Speaker 1: to to. Uh. The Palindrum day and it's also a Tuesday.
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, shit, how did nobody foresee this?
Speaker 1: So lucky? Is my first question. That's what I wake
Speaker 1: up every morning, look at the ceiling and ask myself
Speaker 1: with a smile on my face, God, hope the numbers
Speaker 1: match up and then in my terrible existence. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: Brittany Britney Spears, also trending is getting her tell All book, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, appropriately for the Too Too to to To
Speaker 1: Day because Brittany is, according to Jamie lind Spears, the
Speaker 1: second most talented member of her family. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you were if you saw that quote. But did
Speaker 1: she really say that. She wrote in a book that
Speaker 1: many people told her that, you know, they had different voices,
Speaker 1: but it was it was like wild because you could
Speaker 1: like see the tone of the person like telling her
Speaker 1: in a way such a way I kind of save
Speaker 1: her feelings, spare her feelings. But like she took it
Speaker 1: as like, you know a lot of people say we're
Speaker 1: exactly as talented. I just like have a different voice
Speaker 1: like mine. Hers is more like powerful, which also not
Speaker 1: a thing that like Brittany's voice has been accused of
Speaker 1: typically um and mind's like more. I don't I forget
Speaker 1: how she described it, but it was like that voices
Speaker 1: are different, you know, is how somebody was saying it
Speaker 1: to her. Um. But anyways that people are saying they
Speaker 1: don't want to be around your ass when reality is.
Speaker 1: Um So Brittany got a book deal of her own,
Speaker 1: and I was surprised as anyone to find out it
Speaker 1: was for more than Jamie Lynd Spears's book deal. Oh
Speaker 1: but I thought she's if she's second fiddle, certainly the
Speaker 1: sum would be smaller as well. But maybe it's like
Speaker 1: now you can hear someone talk about what it's like
Speaker 1: to be Jamie Lynn Spears as sister, right, right, got it.
Speaker 1: I don't know, just a thought she signed a fifteen
Speaker 1: fifteen I'm having trouble with numbers today. I think it's
Speaker 1: the two two two two two to day, Uh, fifteen
Speaker 1: million dollar deal. Uh so hashtag free britt continues, Uh, well,
Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see what what we learned. Hopefully it's
Speaker 1: a good book. Better, better, better, do more sales in
Speaker 1: the Bible. I mean, at least I think I think
Speaker 1: it can. Yeah, arevery is trending because the three men
Speaker 1: in the amad Arebury murder were charged with hate crimes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was there there. Uh. His family and the attorneys
Speaker 1: are like, we really need we're really wanting to center
Speaker 1: right race and racism and a critical element of this
Speaker 1: case and fought hard for that. Uh and this mostly
Speaker 1: white jury, they said, yeah, what did it for you?
Speaker 1: Oh oh, when the attorney showed us all of the
Speaker 1: racist social media posts that these people have been engaging
Speaker 1: in over the years, felt like, yeah, there was this
Speaker 1: killing was motivated by racial animus. Uh so glad to
Speaker 1: see you know that element of the case be you know,
Speaker 1: pretty open and closed. But again, his life was needlessly
Speaker 1: taken because of these three racists and there insistence that
Speaker 1: they were just doing the right thing by killing an
Speaker 1: unarmed man who they thought has been stealing stuff, chasing
Speaker 1: down and killing you Yeah, just jogging And I think
Speaker 1: that's what's really the man that that his just that
Speaker 1: the a wild thing about that whole thing was that
Speaker 1: you'll read a lot of articles are like and you know,
Speaker 1: the place is going one way until a video leaked
Speaker 1: of the murder and he was going no way. It
Speaker 1: was nobody was getting anything. Yeah, it was effectively going
Speaker 1: to be like just blowing off in the wind, like
Speaker 1: a forgotten memory. And it was the year of people
Speaker 1: needing to see horrible acts of violent racism being committed
Speaker 1: on tape, uh, for for things to change. And I
Speaker 1: think that's like for all that, for all the time
Speaker 1: it took your like, oh my god, but you know,
Speaker 1: a bit of justice and I hope a bit of
Speaker 1: peace and solace for his family. Yeah, Russia is trending. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, people come to the Daily Zeitgeist to find
Speaker 1: out about our takes on international relations. Mum, and I
Speaker 1: got a spicy one, folks. No, I actually don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm like Cardi B. Where I go and I'm not
Speaker 1: really feeling either side on this one. Did you see
Speaker 1: that tweet going viral? No, the Hill, of course, because
Speaker 1: of their conservative band, they have a fucking headline where
Speaker 1: it's like Cardi B, doesn't you know ways in on
Speaker 1: the like the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and it's like,
Speaker 1: I'm not really signing with NATO or Russia And you're like,
Speaker 1: you know what fair? Fair? I mean? This is this
Speaker 1: is one of those very like a story that has
Speaker 1: It depends on who you're listening to and at what
Speaker 1: point they choose to acknowledge history. Some people might tell
Speaker 1: you that an invasion started today. Other people would say
Speaker 1: it's started in Other people said that the writing on
Speaker 1: the wall with how the you know, Soviet Union became
Speaker 1: Russia has a lot to do with America's you know,
Speaker 1: insistence on like helping certain presidents with their were their
Speaker 1: aims in Russia. Um. But I think one thing is clear,
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, the United States has had to massively
Speaker 1: center themselves, uh in in this conflict when some people
Speaker 1: like this, Okay, I get that Russia is obviously the
Speaker 1: like de facto default enemy for all things foreign policy
Speaker 1: in the US and also just in general. You know,
Speaker 1: they're they're the slant of the United States with with
Speaker 1: President Biden is sort of saying stuff like, you know,
Speaker 1: they that they have to respect the sanctity of these
Speaker 1: nations and these borders, etcetera. Uh, you know, terms and
Speaker 1: conditions may apply depending on who's violating borders. But that's
Speaker 1: I think another thing that makes this whole like talk
Speaker 1: of who is more righteous so chaotic. Um. But what
Speaker 1: is clear is that the people of Ukraine do not
Speaker 1: deserve to be thrown into more conflict because of you know,
Speaker 1: putin looking at essentially like he said in his speech
Speaker 1: that like going back centuries to sort of argue with
Speaker 1: the fact that you know, Ukraine doesn't really have a
Speaker 1: right to exist as they see it with their borders.
Speaker 1: So that's kind of what we're addressing these people have
Speaker 1: suffered tremendously over the last eight years. Uh. And I
Speaker 1: think it's the thing that really uh gives me like
Speaker 1: goose bumps, is like hearing like just any type of
Speaker 1: account from Ukrainian people who are just saying, like I
Speaker 1: I'd like, I'm not going to leave if my country
Speaker 1: is going to be if I'm going to have to
Speaker 1: fight for my country, like, i will not leave, and
Speaker 1: they're like, I'm just an accountant or a person who
Speaker 1: likes a cook at a hotel or whatever. Um. And
Speaker 1: the human cost of it, I think is what is
Speaker 1: completely absent with a lot of the media coverage because
Speaker 1: most of it, like especially if you watch the U
Speaker 1: S he's like, oh, he's about Oh he's gonna do boy,
Speaker 1: he's about to uh like really trying to get people
Speaker 1: fully on board with like armed conflict. Now, obviously the
Speaker 1: US isn't going to be directly take up arms against
Speaker 1: Russia as they've said that would basically be World or
Speaker 1: three and they're not interested in that. Um. But you know, like,
Speaker 1: what what are the paths to this diplomacy? And I
Speaker 1: think that's the biggest question mark most people have is
Speaker 1: like are they trying to work out some kind of
Speaker 1: secret deal like while all of this blustering is happening,
Speaker 1: or is this just another opportunity for the military industrial
Speaker 1: complex to be like, here's a little conflict, a little
Speaker 1: beak slip. You don't get my beak wet on that
Speaker 1: thing real quick. I mean, the military industrial complex is
Speaker 1: big business, like probably the biggest in America. Um. But yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a definitely very very like harrowing.
Speaker 1: It's a it's a very tense moment um. And right
Speaker 1: now the US and the you know, the Allies and
Speaker 1: other EU nations are basically moving forward with sanctions you
Speaker 1: know a lot of Ukrainian people and like, yeah, can
Speaker 1: you actually have sanctions that like target like the people
Speaker 1: who have a lot of the decision making power, uh
Speaker 1: like and go after their wealth because a lot of
Speaker 1: the you know a lot of foreign policy people are like, well,
Speaker 1: you know, if you go after the oligarchs who basically
Speaker 1: helped proper puttin up, if you go after their like
Speaker 1: financial well being, that might demotivate them to be so
Speaker 1: on board with everything he's doing. But I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's I mean, when you when you see any clip
Speaker 1: of news from Russia, it's clear that they're very much
Speaker 1: trying to prepare their populace for war under the pretext
Speaker 1: of like intervening against an aggressive Ukraine. But also I
Speaker 1: think you know that for from I think the Russian
Speaker 1: the way Vladimir Putin looks at things is he doesn't
Speaker 1: want more NATO aligned nations along his border. That scares
Speaker 1: him infinitely. Um and now it seems like this is
Speaker 1: probably even freakier for him because his like for all
Speaker 1: of the ship that's been going on, there's been more
Speaker 1: of you know, these Western nations like uniting for good
Speaker 1: or bad. But yeah, yeah, and there has there been
Speaker 1: like a false flag attack. Basically there's been a few.
Speaker 1: I mean there, there's it all depends on you know,
Speaker 1: there was reports of like shelling happening in this area.
Speaker 1: But they're saying, like, I don't this doesn't look like
Speaker 1: it has the markings of like Ukrainian aggression. There's like
Speaker 1: a car bomb that went off. They're they've definitely been
Speaker 1: trying with things here and there, but a lot of
Speaker 1: reporting has sort of been able to kind of clearly
Speaker 1: point to like many conflicting reports, which tends to have
Speaker 1: the the mark of that kind of acceleration propaganda type ship. Yeah, alright, well,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back, and Hank the Tank is trending. This
Speaker 1: is a five pound bear, uh, in the process of
Speaker 1: ransacking a California community. Let's off NAT experiences. Glad, I'm
Speaker 1: glad that break was yeah, rather than the regular show.
Speaker 1: All right, back to Hank the Tank. Yeah, that's uh,
Speaker 1: this would come at the end of a local news broadcast.
Speaker 1: And yeah, right, Hank the Tank. Uh, look at this
Speaker 1: is going to be bracing themselves for higher fuel costs,
Speaker 1: not just Hank the Tank. He's gonna have to brace
Speaker 1: himself for a whole new reality. Hey speaking of a bear,
Speaker 1: am I right? The bear did? Yeah, evoked the Russian bear,
Speaker 1: I believe in his speech also, so so what what's
Speaker 1: what's Hank the Tank doing. That's so this bear is
Speaker 1: like just mammoth fucking black bear who's so overweight because
Speaker 1: it's just been like subsisting off a diet of human
Speaker 1: food and so it's getting bigger than like would naturally happen.
Speaker 1: I think the pictures of it, it looks like a
Speaker 1: bear who doesn't know how to not break into people's
Speaker 1: houses for food. And that's what's happening. Like every week
Speaker 1: there's been like in like California News, who like, dude,
Speaker 1: he's back at it again, bust into another place with
Speaker 1: like another house to get food. And they're just saying, like,
Speaker 1: because the bear has gotten so used to it, like
Speaker 1: it's it's it's programming, is now saying enter home for food.
Speaker 1: No such thing as being afraid of humans, because you
Speaker 1: got to secure that back. The New York Times tweet, paintballs,
Speaker 1: bean bags, sirens and tasers cannot keep the five pound
Speaker 1: animal from seeking leftover pizza and other food. Um. Wow,
Speaker 1: it sounds like them talking about like a worker uprising
Speaker 1: asking for equality, right just for this little leftover pizza
Speaker 1: that they want. We get it. Bear, here's some taser. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't know what they You know, what
Speaker 1: do you do? You like? Are they they talks around
Speaker 1: you destroy the bear now or you just kind of like, man,
Speaker 1: we just gotta respect that we did this to him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, maybe build a cabin, you know,
Speaker 1: all you can eat buffet in it and he'll just
Speaker 1: stay over there. There you go, just lots of old pizza.
Speaker 1: Send all the old pizzas to hang the tanks place.
Speaker 1: US Soccer on women's players have agreed to settle an
Speaker 1: equal pay lawsuit. Yeah, so this has been going on
Speaker 1: for a little while, A long time. I think most
Speaker 1: people go, how much how much of the men's national
Speaker 1: team players get paid a game? Huh? What about what
Speaker 1: about the women's team? Oh a fraction of that? Okay,
Speaker 1: that's uh better? Good? Yeah. How many stars does the
Speaker 1: US men's national team have above their crest? Oh fucking none? Okay?
Speaker 1: And how about the U s Okay so many that
Speaker 1: you lost track? Okay? That okay, Okay, I see that. Um.
Speaker 1: But yeah, really monumental uh for you know, just in general,
Speaker 1: like as far as pay when he goes in sports.
Speaker 1: The way it works is they they this is like
Speaker 1: a settlement for I believe like twenty two or twenty
Speaker 1: four million, but then that it goes to back pay,
Speaker 1: uh for some players, and then they also want to
Speaker 1: put two million aside because you know, part of a
Speaker 1: thing that you know, this is all part of like
Speaker 1: a new agreement that there that they're negotiating with US Soccer, um,
Speaker 1: is that they also want to have like a fund
Speaker 1: available to retired players that whatever their post career goals
Speaker 1: or charitable efforts are, that they could apply for like
Speaker 1: a fifty thou dollars to help, you know, take set
Speaker 1: off that next sort of moment for their careers. Um.
Speaker 1: So you know, uh, we will see what what it
Speaker 1: means like at the very end, because they still need
Speaker 1: to like ratify like a new collective bargaining agreement and
Speaker 1: this is sort of the path to that moment um.
Speaker 1: So I think they have like until like a memorand
Speaker 1: of understanding or something until March to figure that out.
Speaker 1: There are the men's players like backing this and being
Speaker 1: supportive of the women's players, like how I'm sure some more.
Speaker 1: I hadn't really checked in with what many of like
Speaker 1: the men's team players are, but I'd imagine they would
Speaker 1: say that because there isn't There wouldn't be a single
Speaker 1: US men's player who would say, uh, like, considering like
Speaker 1: our stature and like to our respective like leagues, Um,
Speaker 1: they're better. The women are better than us. They're historically
Speaker 1: the like the best their powerhouse, and we are also
Speaker 1: on our way there. But we haven't won. We we
Speaker 1: haven't brought home the trophies like we need to. But
Speaker 1: that's true, the US men's team is on its way
Speaker 1: to being relevant. I think in the next eight years. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see a more and more competitive US team.
Speaker 1: I mean we already have, like the I think the
Speaker 1: biggest thing that a lot of you know, fans have
Speaker 1: talked about or just observers as most other nations Mexico, Argentina, whatever,
Speaker 1: the you know, more traditional powers have players that are
Speaker 1: playing in Europe. They're not just playing in their own
Speaker 1: domestic league, like they're playing at the highest level in Europe.
Speaker 1: So that only now elevates like the overall skill and
Speaker 1: talent of your team. Now. I know that people say,
Speaker 1: like MLS is A is a fine league too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it is to a certain extent, but then there is
Speaker 1: a talent gap where it's not just about gumption and
Speaker 1: you kind of need people who are week in week
Speaker 1: out playing alongside like the best players to you know,
Speaker 1: put our team, put our team. Why am I saying that?
Speaker 1: Like I support the men's national team, but put to
Speaker 1: put put the US You know what I'm saying. You
Speaker 1: know me, I got it tatted on my eyelids. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I I think, and now you're seeing just more and
Speaker 1: more with like players who have multiple nationality eligibility, who
Speaker 1: are like you know, growing up in Europe or playing
Speaker 1: in other places, you know, joining the US men's team.
Speaker 1: It's overall and just overall the quality is getting better
Speaker 1: in the U s too. So it's it's all in
Speaker 1: the book soccer nomics. But overall, this is like if
Speaker 1: the I just pulled a random men's tennis play air
Speaker 1: his name, and if Jack Sock made more money than
Speaker 1: uh Serena Williams, it's like the do you know Jack
Speaker 1: Sock is no, I mean, I wouldn't go that far,
Speaker 1: but peaked at number eight in singles rankings, so he
Speaker 1: number Jack Socks number eight. He peaked at number inen.
Speaker 1: He's currently h coming in at a nice uh let
Speaker 1: me see here, I think one right in the nation. Sorry.
Speaker 1: And you know, like most settlements that happened with a
Speaker 1: gigantic entity when you're going through collective bargaining negotiations, this
Speaker 1: settlement is about a third of what the players were
Speaker 1: asking for initially. They're asking for like sixties something million um,
Speaker 1: and so that's definitely it falls short of that. But
Speaker 1: I think in general. You know, Megan Rappino, who has
Speaker 1: you know, been one of the more visible people in
Speaker 1: this campaign, just still felt, you know what, it's still
Speaker 1: a pretty monumental win. Um, But we need to see
Speaker 1: where the collect collective bargaining agreement goes first, um, and finally,
Speaker 1: people are This is like a cycle that happens every
Speaker 1: once in a while on social media where people will
Speaker 1: find out, oh, this person has famous uh relatives, or
Speaker 1: this one started out in a funny way because somebody
Speaker 1: tweeted just found out the woman who played Lucille two
Speaker 1: in Arrested Development is had famous parents. They're speaking of course,
Speaker 1: of Lilli, whose mother is Judy Garland and whose father
Speaker 1: is a filmmaker named Vincente Minnelli, who made like a
Speaker 1: bunch of to um. But then there there so then
Speaker 1: there's a bunch of you know, people following up making
Speaker 1: fun of that being like just found out Jesus was
Speaker 1: a nepotism baby crazy, Um, don't talk about that, don'tenough.
Speaker 1: But there there's something like I did so they there's
Speaker 1: one that has four pictures, all right, Drew Barrymore, Jamie
Speaker 1: Lee Curtis, Kristen Stewart and Elizabeth Olsen now Drew Barrymore
Speaker 1: father famous actor, infamous like complete monster. Jamie Lee Curtis's
Speaker 1: mother was like also a famous actor in horror films.
Speaker 1: So like, there's that line's right up. But so Christen
Speaker 1: Stewart's parents are definitely like in the industry for sure,
Speaker 1: but it feels a little I don't know, it's probably
Speaker 1: even more beneficial because her parents are like movie and
Speaker 1: TV producers and stage Tony Curtis isn't he wait for
Speaker 1: Jamie Jamie Lee Curtis. His father is Tony Curtis, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: whoever that is? Um, But I'm just that's what somebody
Speaker 1: else was, Like maud Apatow's uh mother is Leslie Man
Speaker 1: and father is a director like this had never heard of, um,
Speaker 1: which I thought was pretty funny. But anyways, Uh so,
Speaker 1: Christen Stewart, I guess has like the same sort of
Speaker 1: thing as Timothy shell May, where it's like industry people
Speaker 1: who definitely probably helped their career along. Um. Elizabeth Olsen
Speaker 1: is a weird one because it's her older sisters were
Speaker 1: the ones who Yeah, I guess it's like saying like
Speaker 1: Ashley Simpson. Also it because because of horrible older sister
Speaker 1: because Jessica got on and that means that it makes
Speaker 1: it easier. I get that, Like it definitely definitely helps.
Speaker 1: That's the thing. I mean, like nepotism works in so
Speaker 1: many ways. It's not just like parent actor kid actor nepotism.
Speaker 1: It can be parent uh, producer of like middling TV shows. Uh,
Speaker 1: and you know that also can be a huge uh
Speaker 1: you know it helps. It helps lessen the obstacles to
Speaker 1: basically get in front of the people that are decision makers,
Speaker 1: because that's really the biggest thing with like Hollywood ship
Speaker 1: is like how quickly can you get your bullshit in
Speaker 1: front of a decision maker? If you're on the street,
Speaker 1: it's probably gonna be hard h to get your script
Speaker 1: in front of somebody. Oh, your parent is already has
Speaker 1: is A is a rap at U t A or
Speaker 1: is repped by c A A. You have now you
Speaker 1: can want to skip a few almost celebrity um. But
Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean it's not like like Elizabeth
Speaker 1: Olsen is actually a better actor than her sisters. So
Speaker 1: I'm not like really mad at that. I don't know,
Speaker 1: I don't even know what I'm looking mad like that?
Speaker 1: What are we mad at exactly. Yeah, I'm not. I'm
Speaker 1: not mad. I just think it's interesting to think of
Speaker 1: somebody who's older sisters are like the nepotism thing, right,
Speaker 1: right right, Also like with nepotism, probably based on the
Speaker 1: people I know who have famous uh parents like Drew Barrymore.
Speaker 1: You know, the fact that she survived that ship is
Speaker 1: pretty pretty incredible, right. Anyways, those are the things that
Speaker 1: are trending on this to to to to to two.
Speaker 1: We are back tomorrow with the whole last episode of
Speaker 1: the show. Until then, be kind to each other, be
Speaker 1: kind to yourselves, get the vaccine, wear a mask, don't
Speaker 1: do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk to
Speaker 1: y'all tomorrow. Bye bye,
