Speaker 1: think Byron Dafoe is a good way to go here. Yeah, okay, hey,
Speaker 1: it's site Ring Dafoe. I'm the gold trender for the
Speaker 1: Boston Bruins, and welcome to this edition of the Trending Episode.
Speaker 1: I'm Miles and I'm joined by Yamy Lofty. The fucking
Speaker 1: what do you? What do you? What? Do you consider yourself?
Speaker 1: The Lord of Boston? The Lord there? Listen, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I mean Boston once again, he's uh, you know, there's
Speaker 1: some pr issues there right now. And yeah, maybe we're
Speaker 1: addition to ourselves from these last couple of weeks. You know,
Speaker 1: it's people, people don't like, you know, it's any city,
Speaker 1: you know. That's the problem with living in America. Um, okay,
Speaker 1: everyone sucks. Let's talk trends for a second. Up top.
Speaker 1: The biggest thing trending right now on this Friday is
Speaker 1: Memorial Day. Um. I don't know, everyone like the way
Speaker 1: Twitter's like people are, you know, looking back on the
Speaker 1: celebration of this holiday or remembering what has happened. Um,
Speaker 1: I I'm not I'm not even joking. I think I
Speaker 1: didn't know what Memorial Day was actually for until college.
Speaker 1: I did when I was younger. I always would mix
Speaker 1: up Veterans Day Memorial Day because they're similar premises, except
Speaker 1: that Memorial Day is for people who died in action. Right.
Speaker 1: Would you get Veterans Day off first from school? I
Speaker 1: think so, yeah, did you? It was weird? It was
Speaker 1: like selective. I remember, like my school was really inconsistent
Speaker 1: where I was like all right, and then there's that
Speaker 1: nailed on like day in November we get off. But
Speaker 1: I think it would only be like if it created
Speaker 1: a three day weekend, is how it would work. So
Speaker 1: really not honoring the troops. Okay, school administrators, just thinking
Speaker 1: about yourself. Um, next up, Oh go on, we're gonna say, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know. I just I don't
Speaker 1: know it every every time, like, I'm glad that there
Speaker 1: are holidays for veterans, but veterans are treated so terribly
Speaker 1: in the US that it's just like, uh, I would
Speaker 1: rather they did something. I mean, it's nice to have
Speaker 1: a day off. But like it's America, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, It's about empty gestures, not like it's actually
Speaker 1: we're going to have a barbecue about it and see
Speaker 1: how it goes. I mean, you talk to anybody who's
Speaker 1: anyone of anyone who served and tries to access their benefits,
Speaker 1: it's like it's like they're playing a joke on them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: how horrific. It's like, yeah, we got you to go
Speaker 1: do all these things. You know, if you're in combat,
Speaker 1: we've subjected you to all kinds of experiences you probably
Speaker 1: didn't want to, but thanks anyway. Also, you need help,
Speaker 1: I don't know I could. I mean, the funk are
Speaker 1: you going on in the v A as well? I
Speaker 1: keep going? But yeah, yeah, well people will hop off
Speaker 1: on the next stop on the trend line. Because Harambe
Speaker 1: is this someone. I'm surprised it's not bigger than Memorial
Speaker 1: Day considering how dumb the Internet can be. But yeah,
Speaker 1: Harambe five years to the day, Um it was taken
Speaker 1: from the Internet. Yes, cruel Harambe really was a critical
Speaker 1: member of the Internet. Were you. I feel like Harambe
Speaker 1: mania kind of went over my head. I felt it
Speaker 1: wash over me, but I didn't participate. I didn't engage
Speaker 1: with it. I just know it was happening because it
Speaker 1: was like stupid and and low key. The people who
Speaker 1: are into it, I feel like, are like maga people
Speaker 1: like low key, like if you're tuning to Harambe, like
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, full like your obsession with a guerrillas
Speaker 1: like getting weird for me. I don't know what to say.
Speaker 1: It's so bizarre to me that it was only five
Speaker 1: years ago because it feels like an Internet time. It
Speaker 1: feels like five trillion years ago. It feels like three
Speaker 1: b C. It's like it's it's like it's almost like
Speaker 1: canonized Internet culture that I would be like it predates
Speaker 1: the screen saver that had the toaster with the wings
Speaker 1: on it, or were talking about iconography the other reason
Speaker 1: it's trending American icon Yeah, you know what. This was
Speaker 1: also very predictable. We gotta fucking n f T coming
Speaker 1: for fucking Harambe, so you can really do you. I've
Speaker 1: had it. I've had it. Finally. I put off learning
Speaker 1: what an n f T was for so fucking long.
Speaker 1: I thought it was so many different things, and then
Speaker 1: when I found out what it actually was Jesus Christ. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is I'm I'm sick. I'm like, it's n f
Speaker 1: T s are I'll say it for losers, losers boom
Speaker 1: nailed on you heard it? Oh wow? I mean like,
Speaker 1: this is another tweet about Rombe. Like it's a photo
Speaker 1: of Harambe on this day five years ago, Harambe was
Speaker 1: murdered by state agents for helping a lost child. We'll
Speaker 1: never forget. We'll never forgive rest to the angels, sweet prints,
Speaker 1: we will avent. You shut the funk up, stupid all right,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm really anti Harambe. Move. I don't
Speaker 1: have time for it to you know, look, let's leave
Speaker 1: it in the past. Let's just leave it in the past.
Speaker 1: Let's move on to another great gem of content. Benghazi's trending.
Speaker 1: That's because the Republicans have outright justus said no to
Speaker 1: a commission on investigating the January sixth insurrection that had
Speaker 1: you know, people armed, people just literally knocking on their door. Um,
Speaker 1: so that has been uh, you know, completely I guess
Speaker 1: stalled out because because the filibusters in place, it only
Speaker 1: took thirty five Republicans to be fifty four other people
Speaker 1: to vote for it, and that's how things work. Um,
Speaker 1: and you know you're eventually they're just gonna politely hand
Speaker 1: over the keys again in the mid terms because they're
Speaker 1: not going to do anything like bold to impress the
Speaker 1: people of the country that are in need to convince
Speaker 1: them to vote for them, right, yeah, and then we'll
Speaker 1: have to continue to vote blue no matter who, even
Speaker 1: if who isn't doing ship again. Oh god, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: And it's already come on, like, let's see if we
Speaker 1: can work with them a little bit. Really, Joe, they
Speaker 1: say they're saying no to fucking everything. We even worked
Speaker 1: at them, and then they didn't vote for anything. What's
Speaker 1: not Joe, let's revisit your views on Israel, you fucking turn.
Speaker 1: That's the hardest part about this whole thing is like
Speaker 1: there these moments where it's like, oh, wow, look at
Speaker 1: the you know, the slight progress vaccine waivers kind of that,
Speaker 1: that's interesting, that's new for an American president, and then
Speaker 1: the same absolute just bone grinding nonsense. Um. It's just yeah,
Speaker 1: the like the culture of like being like we have
Speaker 1: no choice to but to stand a president who does
Speaker 1: something that is good for people one time. It's just like, yeah, sure, yeah,
Speaker 1: because I think people people have to baby be more
Speaker 1: vocal to bully Democrats would be like, fully, dude, you
Speaker 1: guys haven't done shit. And for some people who are
Speaker 1: just paying attention, maybe this is the second election cycle
Speaker 1: they've noticed. Is other people have noticed it for decades. Uh,
Speaker 1: but you know, we'll see what happens. Ariana, Ariana Grandy
Speaker 1: is trying. Um what happened? She got married. She released
Speaker 1: a couple of pictures of it. That's literally it. I
Speaker 1: don't know, like, well, you know, I I do enjoy
Speaker 1: Ariana Grande songs, enjoy her. And then she she married.
Speaker 1: She did something that I feel like celebrities do where
Speaker 1: they'll like have a few high profile relationships all back
Speaker 1: to back to back to back, and then they'll just
Speaker 1: marry some random person and then and and it seems
Speaker 1: like a better choice for them. She's marrying some like
Speaker 1: guy who sells real estate. He's she's he's like a
Speaker 1: Kroger brand. David said, yeah, he literally looks like Pete Davidson. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he looks like a shorter like a shorter Normie Pete Davidson,
Speaker 1: which is always good for her. Yeah, wrong with that
Speaker 1: it's more like, oh, you have a type I do
Speaker 1: we are? Do we as a nation? Do we as
Speaker 1: a as a do we care about Pete Davidson's feelings?
Speaker 1: I can never decide if I care about his feelings
Speaker 1: or not. I guess there's no reason not. I mean
Speaker 1: I wish him no ill will, but do am I
Speaker 1: like checking up on him? No? How does Pete doing? In?
Speaker 1: His ex got married? He's he's dating. Um God, I've
Speaker 1: been listening to so many celebrity gossip podcasts. I don't
Speaker 1: know what's wrong with me. He's dating oh no forever? Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then they broke up and he started dating Ariana
Speaker 1: Grande and now he's dating girl from Bridgerton. God only
Speaker 1: knows what her name is. Wait with the one whose
Speaker 1: name Bridgie Daphne? Yeah, oh look at you? Okay, I
Speaker 1: know he's got another way. He's gone trending on Twitter though,
Speaker 1: people like dude, Pete Davison's gonna quit usaid now or
Speaker 1: some ship. It was like the other thing I saw too.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's been on for kind of a long.
Speaker 1: It's weird because it's like, oh, he's young, but he's
Speaker 1: been on since he was like twenty or something. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: thinking about it, I can if Pete Davison leaves us
Speaker 1: and I I don't know a little to the photos
Speaker 1: look nice, her makeup iss. She looks breathtaking in these photos.
Speaker 1: It's like twenty people, and I feel like Ariana Grande
Speaker 1: was one of the at least front facing wise, she
Speaker 1: was like one of the big celebrities that did not
Speaker 1: have a big COVID scandal and actually seemed to be
Speaker 1: taking ship seriously and had a small wedding too. Well,
Speaker 1: she's had she's been through some ship man after that
Speaker 1: bombing and stuff like I can only imagine the the
Speaker 1: value reevaluation you do to your relationships with so many things,
Speaker 1: and like yeah, um, which is funny you bring up
Speaker 1: COVID scarce Kim Kardeshian is also trending because it turned
Speaker 1: out the whole damn fam came down with COVID and
Speaker 1: it halted production of Keeping Up with the Capitalists and
Speaker 1: it didn't um well, it sounds like super producer Ana Hosnie.
Speaker 1: She's introducing a bit of shade, a bit of theory here,
Speaker 1: saying that it seems to it could create a possibility
Speaker 1: that perhaps the infection occurred when she had that fantasy
Speaker 1: island party. I mean that is that would make total
Speaker 1: sense I was seeing. I'm yeah, there's like a whole
Speaker 1: BuzzFeed news article about it by Ellie Woodward that attempts
Speaker 1: to put together the timeline of when this could have
Speaker 1: happened based on like clips of keeping up with the
Speaker 1: Kardashian compared with their social media and like it's a
Speaker 1: very scholarly endeavor. I don't quite know where they landed,
Speaker 1: but it's like, these fucking assholes didn't Kim trending the
Speaker 1: other day due to like a labor dispute and like
Speaker 1: withholding wages from her gardeners. I'm pretty sure that was
Speaker 1: just the other day. So the other the other thing
Speaker 1: I saw was that she had failed like the baby
Speaker 1: bar exam, like and I was like, are you not
Speaker 1: really calling it? Is that what it's called? Because it
Speaker 1: sounds very diminutive on purpose? But yeah, I don't know, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: if an Earlionaire failed a test, I don't care. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The arrogance of being like, yeah, just in the chaos
Speaker 1: of the world, like just wanted to get my friends
Speaker 1: together in a beautiful place to forget about COVID karma
Speaker 1: would if you know, if the universe is ultimately arking
Speaker 1: towards the positive. Uh, you know, but unfortunately, who knows
Speaker 1: what would have happened to the people that had to
Speaker 1: deal with all these other records. But yeah, it's like
Speaker 1: you have to think about, like all the people who
Speaker 1: are in the event. It had to have been a
Speaker 1: ton of people who are put at risked by these
Speaker 1: fucking ah it's frustrating. But sometimes, you know, every once
Speaker 1: in a while you're like, oh, uh, you know Bill
Speaker 1: Maher tested positive for COVID. Awesome, you know, like uh,
Speaker 1: late in the game too, I think Anna was also saying,
Speaker 1: like that's an embarrassment family, Like, yeah, that was like
Speaker 1: a wealthy people like actively trying to use their money
Speaker 1: to avoid being any anywhere near anything that would get
Speaker 1: them sick. I don't I guess everyone that's different perspectives. Um, well,
Speaker 1: good luck to whoever needs luck. I won't say kim Ka,
Speaker 1: she has plenty of it. Ariana, Ariana Grandy shout out
Speaker 1: to you. The wedding photos like fantastic, although I feel
Speaker 1: like her brother is the kind of guy who would
Speaker 1: have sold like low key photos to make his own money. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I bet Frankie had the paps. Uh, Frankie had the
Speaker 1: paps online one He's like, I'll cut part of the
Speaker 1: bushes out so if he's a telephoto lens, you will
Speaker 1: be able to get a very sneaky shot. And there's
Speaker 1: too many celebrity siblings named Frankie because the Jonas Brothers
Speaker 1: also have a rogue Frankie as well. Wait, there's a
Speaker 1: non Well he's trying to be a celebrity. But yeah,
Speaker 1: they have Like I remember from when I myself was
Speaker 1: a Jonas Brothers fan in uh in junior high they
Speaker 1: had a brother or last year in June nineteen. Uh there, look,
Speaker 1: I have the screenshots. I was in a Jonas Brothers
Speaker 1: music video in two thousand and eight. But Frankie was
Speaker 1: their little brother who was too young to be in
Speaker 1: the band because he was like eight. And now he's
Speaker 1: like an adult and it's like, what about me, guys,
Speaker 1: And I don't think anyone cares. Wow, well, love to
Speaker 1: all the Frankiees. Always remember when Frankie Grande was on
Speaker 1: Big Brother and he did the thirstiest reveal of who
