Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of pre Trenders.
Speaker 1: Miguel Savedra suggested the pre trender by the Foodsighters, but
Speaker 1: I don't know that song, so I just did the
Speaker 1: band the Trenders, who I like, I'm Jack, and that
Speaker 1: is Joel Moni. What's up, Joel oh Man? A lot
Speaker 1: of hot topics to get into. So the hottest we're
Speaker 1: about to We're about to uh kick it off with
Speaker 1: I think the hottest topic that we've ever covered, and
Speaker 1: that is, of course, the comedic stylings of a Jim Brewer. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, uh, We've been saying it for years, but
Speaker 1: conservatives are getting funnier and the left is nervous. Um.
Speaker 1: So Jim Brewer, who was kind of always bad on like,
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, people will typically be like
Speaker 1: the current season of SNL sucks. Like when I was younger,
Speaker 1: SNL fucking ruled man. Um. I that is not true,
Speaker 1: because when I was younger, Jim Brewer was on SNL
Speaker 1: and his he just like did goat sounds and also
Speaker 1: looked high and that was that was the thing that
Speaker 1: was His comedy was either a full swing or an
Speaker 1: entire miss. Yeah. There was no in between. It was messy.
Speaker 1: So he has recently come out as like anti vax
Speaker 1: anti government, doesn't get to tell us what to do
Speaker 1: man um. And so he canceled a show where they
Speaker 1: were asking people to be vaccinated or mandating it. He's
Speaker 1: gone on Tucker Carlson and you know, just made very um,
Speaker 1: just the most basic bottom feeding anti vax points like
Speaker 1: that you expect anti vaxers to make. Uh. And he
Speaker 1: just did a new like stand up set at like
Speaker 1: something some like Christian conference, um that is going viral
Speaker 1: because it's so good. Uh, super producer, Brian, can you
Speaker 1: bless us with? Uh? This Jim Brewer thing where he
Speaker 1: combines his two skills of animal impressions and being uh
Speaker 1: fucking complete right wing dipshit. You know what a cockatoo is?
Speaker 1: He's doing an impression of a crow. By the way,
Speaker 1: I think I was gonna say, not how cock you
Speaker 1: sounds a dying goat. Maybe that's a goat. That's all
Speaker 1: he learned how to do. Yeah, that's it, little cockatoo
Speaker 1: staring at the street faction figures, faction fagure, Dr Fatty,
Speaker 1: Dr Fatty, and then he makes a real ugly face
Speaker 1: and sticks his tongue out, all right, that that should do?
Speaker 1: That is that's courtesy of American Faith dot com. He
Speaker 1: was at like the American Faith Conference. So let you know,
Speaker 1: the only people at the American Faith Conference were white.
Speaker 1: From the video that we just saw, not a speck
Speaker 1: of color in the bunch so white. Uh, and like
Speaker 1: didn't really know how to laugh. It seems like they
Speaker 1: were just like smiling, like, oh, he's he's telling a joke.
Speaker 1: This is the best they have for comedy. I really think, listen,
Speaker 1: here's my new If we're just gonna go on a
Speaker 1: role of conspiracy theories today, but I feel my soul
Speaker 1: is going to happen. Uh. It seems to me as
Speaker 1: if comedians on the outs are like God kind of
Speaker 1: get in front of an audience again comedy. I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna go full right wing. They need comedians, I need money,
Speaker 1: and we'll just make it work. And listen, that is
Speaker 1: not how long did he work on that joke? That's
Speaker 1: not ours. That's not working perfecting a joke until it
Speaker 1: hits perfectly. This is throwaway material. Yeah, it's the it's
Speaker 1: some stuff that he has gotten other plandemic people to
Speaker 1: like agree with uh, and he's been like he's confusing
Speaker 1: agreement with laughter. I guess, I don't know. It's very
Speaker 1: funny stuff, very inspired. Uh. And you know people on
Speaker 1: the left are nervous. They have gained the power of
Speaker 1: comedy and it's only a matter of time until they
Speaker 1: win me over personally. Like that was that was good stuff. Um,
Speaker 1: what a what a piece of ship. But you know
Speaker 1: it's a great people should go watch the video just
Speaker 1: because the cutaways of the people laughing are um, very surreal,
Speaker 1: like they look like they're laughing from the afterlife or
Speaker 1: something like. Yeah, they're definitely dead inside. The laughter that's
Speaker 1: coming up as like residual, like they're really trying an
Speaker 1: effort to appear human. It's a struggle. The strategy of
Speaker 1: making a dumb noise in a dumb face and then
Speaker 1: just saying what other people believe is a strong one though,
Speaker 1: And uh yeah we perfected it in kindergarten. Yeah. Facts
Speaker 1: and figures, Facts and figures. Wait, so facts were mad
Speaker 1: about facts? Okay? All right? Member, they listen to Dr
Speaker 1: Fauci and they like facts and figures, these evil bastards.
Speaker 1: Yeah cool. Uh. Kanye's publicist is trending because they are
Speaker 1: in trouble for So this is kind of a weird
Speaker 1: story because it's unclear who they went. Um, so they
Speaker 1: went to the home of the Georgia election official and
Speaker 1: pressured them to say that they committed fraud back when
Speaker 1: like that was Trump's kind of whole The whole thing
Speaker 1: was that he was gonna hope yeah. Um. And second
Speaker 1: to last, they didn't say who they were there on
Speaker 1: behalf of They were like, I'm here on behalf of
Speaker 1: a prominent public figure. So was it Kanye? It was
Speaker 1: Kanye like and on the big lie, like was he
Speaker 1: trying to huh? I'm assuming they were like working for
Speaker 1: Trump on the side or something you would have to imagine.
Speaker 1: But it seemed like Trump was sort of grasping at
Speaker 1: anybody who was willing to go run a quick deed
Speaker 1: for him at that time. I do think like Kanye
Speaker 1: has pretty openly admitted like he was not within his
Speaker 1: right mind. He was off of his meds for three years.
Speaker 1: As somebody who takes brien altering meds to get through
Speaker 1: my day to day life, if you go off those fuckers,
Speaker 1: it is it's just gone. It takes so long to
Speaker 1: get everything back, and it just sucks that he's surrounded
Speaker 1: by people like this, um who would intimidate an election official.
Speaker 1: How how are these wire you s even crossing? Like
Speaker 1: the fact that Kamie was so close to the White House.
Speaker 1: If there had been any kind of organization behind that move,
Speaker 1: we might have been looking at a Kanye presidency. Horrifying, horrifying.
Speaker 1: Oh man, I really despair for a like branch in
Speaker 1: the multiverse where a person with their ship together, like
Speaker 1: takes all the lessons from the Trump administration and puts
Speaker 1: them together. That's going to be not great, very frightening.
Speaker 1: Um all right, And and there's just like everyone's mad.
Speaker 1: It seems like like a Delta Delta had to kick
Speaker 1: a passenger off their flight because they got drunk on
Speaker 1: the flight and then started like physically abusing flight attendants
Speaker 1: and even fought the air marshal and so they had
Speaker 1: to land the flight. Hate crimes are up in New
Speaker 1: York City owing to abuse towards Asian Americans and Asian people.
Speaker 1: This really goes to be careful what you wish for,
Speaker 1: because we really said, hey, I really hope it's like
Speaker 1: the Roaring twenties when we get to and we are
Speaker 1: fill belligerents everywhere you look, just people way more liquored up.
Speaker 1: We saw that huge spike in wine sales over the
Speaker 1: last two years. Everyone is finding on a plane. I
Speaker 1: don't understand why. I sort of do. Planes are hyper uncomfortable. Uh,
Speaker 1: you can't do anything or go anywhere. Really, God forbids
Speaker 1: who happen to get an old plane without a TV
Speaker 1: screen in front of you. The chaos, it's it feels
Speaker 1: like a new level of torture. I flee for my
Speaker 1: birthday to New York on one of the most uncomfortable
Speaker 1: planes I've ever been on, like the most ninety degree
Speaker 1: no padded seats ever. Horrible. On the other hand, it's
Speaker 1: sort of wild to me because I don't know if
Speaker 1: you saw American Airlines kicked off a mother with like
Speaker 1: a seven week seven month old baby, a very tiny child, UM,
Speaker 1: apparently for talking back. Like the Skuys are not friendly anymore.
Speaker 1: There are no fairly guys to fly, stay grounded, avoid
Speaker 1: air travel, um, and they hate if you can. But
Speaker 1: it's up a hundred percent, so I think we're just
Speaker 1: in it now. This is this is our roaring twenties,
Speaker 1: and it is violent. Yeah, it's like everybody had visions
Speaker 1: of the Great Gatsby, but like everybody just turned into Yeah,
Speaker 1: they didn't really great and didn't didn't read about Tom
Speaker 1: Buchanan and didn't realize that everybody was turned into Tom
Speaker 1: Buchanan instead of any of the and they were like
Speaker 1: that party looks lit and yeah, whole betrayals happen, a
Speaker 1: lot of death. It's messy, it's it's not an ideal world.
Speaker 1: You don't want to go back there? Yeah, um, alright,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. When we come back, I
Speaker 1: do want to prepare you because the Sex in the
Speaker 1: City reboot has issued a big um you know, twist
Speaker 1: in the very first episode back, and we will spoil
Speaker 1: that ship because it is trending, as well as the
Speaker 1: Ager Corporation, whose stock that twist has driven down eleven um.
Speaker 1: So yeah, that would have been a good tease if
Speaker 1: I knew how to word sentences. But I think I
Speaker 1: think you guys get what I'm saying. All Right, we'll
Speaker 1: be right back, and we're back. Uh and Julian Assange, well,
Speaker 1: we'll do the um Sex in the City twist at
Speaker 1: the end. You gotta wait, you got we gotta get through. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're gonna end with that ship, all right, Julian Assange,
Speaker 1: because you need to know about Juliana Sandra So. A
Speaker 1: couple months back, Yahoo News, who are apparently you know,
Speaker 1: our hardest hitting news outlet, reported that CIA officials had
Speaker 1: drawn up options for former US President Donald Trump's admitted
Speaker 1: straation for dealing with Julian Assange while he was holed
Speaker 1: up in the Ecuadorian embassy in London. Uh. And those
Speaker 1: options were anywhere from kidnapping him to assassinating him. Those
Speaker 1: were those were uh, the that was the range that
Speaker 1: they were working with. And so the US has been
Speaker 1: uh since they, I guess like saw this guy, have
Speaker 1: been trying to extradite him to America and presumably put
Speaker 1: him in solitary confinement and then like have him accidentally
Speaker 1: harm himself or whatever. And so like one of the
Speaker 1: top judges in America below the Supreme Court, but like
Speaker 1: way up there has ruled that, um it is okay
Speaker 1: for them to extradite him. And uh so it's looking
Speaker 1: bad for Julian Osange, looking bad for like journalism. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, Wiki Leaks editor in chief Kristen Profanson, uh
Speaker 1: is exactly how that's pronounced. So in case you ever
Speaker 1: want to know how it's pronounced, just fell back and
Speaker 1: listen to that. Kristen profsonce UH said, Julian's life is
Speaker 1: once more undergrad threat, and so is the right of
Speaker 1: journalists to publish material that governments and corporations find inconvenient.
Speaker 1: This is about the right of a free press to
Speaker 1: publish without being threatened by a bullying superpower. Um yeah,
Speaker 1: so I and I think all that's that's all pretty accurate.
Speaker 1: Um yeah, I mean, listen, this is it's it's you
Speaker 1: wanted to be shocking, you wanted to not be true,
Speaker 1: and uh yeah, they've killed so many of our great
Speaker 1: thought leaders, you know, in the past fifty sixty years. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's kind of devastating to know that we're aware
Speaker 1: of that and they're still moving as if no one
Speaker 1: can see them. It's like, well, well, we know what
Speaker 1: you can you're doing, please don't do that. In the
Speaker 1: same way that I just I hope he can get out.
Speaker 1: I hope he can. I don't know how, I don't
Speaker 1: know if he can, but I hope he can get
Speaker 1: out and doesn't have to come back here ever. Again.
Speaker 1: That is so bananas that I hate state sanctioned murder.
Speaker 1: I hated so much. I hate that we just lost
Speaker 1: another person to death row for not even do guy
Speaker 1: didn't kill anybody. He just happened to be an area
Speaker 1: where police officers were killed, and they were like, well,
Speaker 1: I got to take that guy out. There was no
Speaker 1: stay of execution even though they proved he didn't murder anyone.
Speaker 1: And I think I'm just sort of devastated by the
Speaker 1: amount of murder our state has sanctioned to people we
Speaker 1: can't prove our guilty, and people who did nothing more
Speaker 1: than try to be patriotic and take care of the
Speaker 1: people by voicing their opinions. Like that is sick. We
Speaker 1: live in a sick country, we do. And like I
Speaker 1: always want to whenever Julian Osanda's name is mentioned, I
Speaker 1: always want to like be like, look, I don't like
Speaker 1: this guy any more than you do. Um. But I
Speaker 1: also have started to wonder if all the stories that
Speaker 1: have been, you know, published, about like how that a
Speaker 1: house guest he was in the embassy, and like how
Speaker 1: unreasonably like I don't know how much of this ship
Speaker 1: is true. You can definitely question a lot of Julius
Speaker 1: Soane's actions. But I think we can all or hopefully
Speaker 1: most of us can agree he hasn't done anything worthy
Speaker 1: of death, like nothing that gives us, say, the right
Speaker 1: to like literally end his life. And they think that
Speaker 1: the least the initial actions he took that got him
Speaker 1: into the press are commendable. Yeah, this is really sad.
Speaker 1: We have Kanye and the news again. Uh for a
Speaker 1: second thing? For good times, he and Drake had a
Speaker 1: like dual concert or like appeared together at a what
Speaker 1: was the cause? The Larry Hoover Free yea Pree Larry event.
Speaker 1: He's on tour apparently, I just like one of my
Speaker 1: friends was like, oh, I'm going to see Kanye. I
Speaker 1: didn't even realize, Like usually his tours are big events
Speaker 1: and there's there's super huge events. There was a line
Speaker 1: wrapped around a soldier field in Chicago for this, Okay,
Speaker 1: But like I always, I've come to expect like some
Speaker 1: sort of you know, stage thing that's that's associated with it.
Speaker 1: Like you know, I saw the St. Pablo performance where
Speaker 1: he was like floating around the Forum on like that
Speaker 1: glowing stage. It seems like there's not that now in
Speaker 1: this one. In the down to One um it wasn't
Speaker 1: for me. I. Um, there's what. I was talking to
Speaker 1: a friend this morning. I was like, well, which NYE
Speaker 1: albums do you rop with? I was like, well, obviously
Speaker 1: college Dropout remains a pinnacle. I think Alit and Heartbreaks
Speaker 1: didn't get enough love and credit that as an artist
Speaker 1: really trying to stretch himself and do something in just
Speaker 1: sing and those music videos or some moose beautiful music
Speaker 1: videos ever produced. Um, but the minute he said something
Speaker 1: about old Kanye and and how everyone minute, I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we do we do? This is now off the walls.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I hope, I hope becomes. It seems
Speaker 1: like he's trying to come back down to earth. It's
Speaker 1: it's hard when you have mental health issues like that.
Speaker 1: But I also think, um, listen to help Larry Hoover.
Speaker 1: I guess, but you know, maybe what if we focus
Speaker 1: our energy on getting non violent drug offenders out of prison,
Speaker 1: specifically the ones who you know so bleed. I just
Speaker 1: think there's better energies Kanye could be putting his time behind,
Speaker 1: uh than this entire concert series, which seems a little Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's weird to me. I saw him at Madison Square
Speaker 1: Garden after or for the Late Registration album, but it
Speaker 1: was the it was the Madison Square Garden below like
Speaker 1: the big one, because that's how like he was just
Speaker 1: like kind of you know, he was popular. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: that's why you learned that, Like in uh, you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm going to the garden to see this band, and
Speaker 1: then like I'm shocked that, you know, the Strokes can
Speaker 1: sell a Medisine Square Garden. Then it ends up being
Speaker 1: h like underneath in this like basement area that's just
Speaker 1: a much smaller place. But he was not comfortable performing
Speaker 1: yet Kanye at that time, and it was still fucking awesome,
Speaker 1: but it was also like, oh my god, yeah, yeah
Speaker 1: it was the polo it is, uh And even then
Speaker 1: he had a cool stage set up though, but it
Speaker 1: was like a very small stage setup. He's an artists
Speaker 1: and finally, all right, Sex and City fans who haven't
Speaker 1: watched the first episode of What's it called? And just
Speaker 1: like that and then it happens and just like so
Speaker 1: we were talking before about why they gave it such
Speaker 1: a bad name, because they're they're definitely trying to rebrand.
Speaker 1: You were speculating it has something to do with the
Speaker 1: fact that the kind of core demo of Sex and
Speaker 1: the City fans are you know, aging, And maybe it's
Speaker 1: because it does sound like one of those like Diane
Speaker 1: Keaton rom comes from like the yeah something's got to give. Yeah,
Speaker 1: something's got to get, like just a vague like kind
Speaker 1: of cliche like phrase that doesn't doesn't sound like it
Speaker 1: should be a movie or a TV show title. Uh,
Speaker 1: and are are like impossible to remember, Like I've never
Speaker 1: been able to remember which one is. Remember the kitchen
Speaker 1: or the iconic turtleneck sweater or Jack trying to climb
Speaker 1: those stairs after his heart attacks so he can have sex. Listen,
Speaker 1: that movie is iconic. Something's got to Give a top
Speaker 1: ten movie. Oh I'm not, but just the title is
Speaker 1: hard to remember. Is it's just like and just like that,
Speaker 1: it's just like it's just not a phrase that like
Speaker 1: can possibly stick in the mind. There's another one, like
Speaker 1: Something's got to give, which I would bring up now
Speaker 1: if those men those titles were It's complicated. That's the
Speaker 1: one I have to love a Nancy Meyer's jam alls
Speaker 1: are great and counter readers doctor who likes older women. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's just they're so hard to remember. Come up with
Speaker 1: better titles, uh for these great works of genues. Anyways,
Speaker 1: the new one is called and just like that, and uh,
Speaker 1: it's a it's a reboot of Sex in the City. Uh.
Speaker 1: It does not have Kim Catrell, does not have Samantha um,
Speaker 1: which people were like what huh why that? Yeah, and
Speaker 1: now and here's the big spoiler, doesn't have Mr Big anymore.
Speaker 1: Mr Big dies of a heart attack in the very
Speaker 1: first episode, and Peloton is trending because Mr Big gets
Speaker 1: off of his thousandth bike ride on Peloton like this
Speaker 1: goal he's like super excited about, I guess, and then
Speaker 1: dies of a heart attack promptly and uh and Peloton
Speaker 1: stock has like gone down eleven. I guess it's been
Speaker 1: gone going down all year because people no longer want
Speaker 1: to feel like they're in that Black Mirror episode where
Speaker 1: everybody's just like has to work on an exercise bike
Speaker 1: and like sleep in the room that they exercise and
Speaker 1: live in and work in, and uh, like we're all
Speaker 1: just like little cogs. Yeah it's yeah exactly. Uh, people
Speaker 1: for some reason are starting to not want to feel
Speaker 1: like that. But anyways, they're trying to do damage control,
Speaker 1: and so they got Dr Suzanne Steinbomb, preventative cardiologist and
Speaker 1: member of pellet Ton's Health and Wellness Advisory Counsel UH
Speaker 1: to make a take a statement. Um, she said, I'm
Speaker 1: sure s A t C fans like me are saddened
Speaker 1: by the news that Mr Big dies of a heart attack. YO, spoilers.
Speaker 1: You can't put her out there making statements like this,
Speaker 1: she You need to have like a pop culture consultant
Speaker 1: there to be like, oh, I don't wanna say spoil uh.
Speaker 1: And then she says, and this is fucking cold blooded.
Speaker 1: Mr Big lived what many would call an extravagant lifestyle,
Speaker 1: including cocktails, cigars, and big steaks, and was at serious
Speaker 1: risk as he had a previous cardiac event in season six.
Speaker 1: These lifestyle choices, and perhaps even his family history, which
Speaker 1: often is a significant factor, were the likely cause of
Speaker 1: his death. Riding his Pelleton bike may have even helped
Speaker 1: delay his cardiac event. In my completely independent doctoral medical opinion,
Speaker 1: absolutely unaffected by my by my position as a member
Speaker 1: of this board. That gets UH, that gets you know,
Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of dollars poorer every time the stock
Speaker 1: price goes down. I'm going to just say I had
Speaker 1: nothing to do with it. Sorry, I have like seven
Speaker 1: things to say sex in the city. Good on you
Speaker 1: for killing off Big. A story had fully run its course.
Speaker 1: I saw a great tweet yesterday. I'm sorry. I don't
Speaker 1: remember who tweeted it, but they're like, am I the
Speaker 1: only one who remembers how bad he treated her? And
Speaker 1: no random person on the internet? You're not Big was
Speaker 1: awful to remember when he left her in the middle
Speaker 1: of the street on their wedding day. What a douche. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm so glad he's gone. Let's find out what older
Speaker 1: single carry is like. Like many of these women out
Speaker 1: here without their husbands and just their good friends to like,
Speaker 1: go drink and enjoy. I don't know, good books and
Speaker 1: great cocktails and a fabulous closet situation like that. Something's
Speaker 1: gotta give, you know, find a Keanu and pick him
Speaker 1: over Jack Nicholson, Okay, you can do it. He was
Speaker 1: a doctor. What were you doing, Diane? I digress. I
Speaker 1: also think, um, that calling up Mr Biggs quote unquote
Speaker 1: extravagant lifestyle, like Americans aren't somewhat living that lifestyle anyway?
Speaker 1: Is bull? Okay? If Mr Big had to be worried,
Speaker 1: we all have to be worried. All right, you're really
Speaker 1: you're not helping your case here. You're like the man
Speaker 1: like steaks and cocktails. We're all drinking. It's the pandemic, ma'am.
Speaker 1: Please calm down. Uh. And third and finally, I think
Speaker 1: it's so wild. How are it's not our entire economy,
Speaker 1: but at least a company's reputation. We stake on what
Speaker 1: happens in a frivolous TV show. Um, the man's triking
Speaker 1: about and had a heart And we see people exercise
Speaker 1: and have heart attacks in movies and TV shows all
Speaker 1: the time. Literally all of the time. They clutch their chest,
Speaker 1: if all over it to dramatic. Sometimes it's funny. If
Speaker 1: you're Jeff Nicholson and something's got to give, it was hilarious.
Speaker 1: It seems like a waste of time for I'm sure
Speaker 1: she was like, I gotta do what today? And they're like,
Speaker 1: please just write. Just let them know that Peloton didn't
Speaker 1: kill big the fictional here. Do you know I'm a
Speaker 1: doctor for so many years. Please just tell the Americans
Speaker 1: that we didn't kill them. Fine, I got this, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean we live in a society. I guess we
Speaker 1: live in a society. I mean that sums it all up.
Speaker 1: I don't think we ever need to publish another episode
Speaker 1: of this show. We live in a society. Joel as
