what's up my people? Happy friday. I had to record today because my sister well, yesterday the boyfriend was homesick, so I had to deal with that. And then, of course, what else happened? I was getting a little lazy, so I was like you know, I'm not recording on a Saturday, even if he is at work. I'm going to record today while everybody's still asleep and it's still early and I have no meetings. Oh yeah, that's what happened. Yesterday. I got some back to back meetings. That is what happened I forgot.
Speaker 1:It's funny how you forget what you're doing when you're busy. Um, so today might be a quick one, just in case. So then nobody hops in here and tries to scare the shit out of me while I'm streaming streaming, excuse me while I'm fucking chit-chatting with you guys. What the fuck is this now? Sorry, I keep seeing things at work. She keeps flashing in my face like from the corner, like my peripheral, whatever they call it. So I only have a couple of things to talk about.
Speaker 1:I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and, of course, after the doctor's appointment, I went to go get some medicine for the guy and went to the store to get some stuff to make some Spanish soup, I think they call it. I've heard it been called like Puerto Rican penicillin, which I always think is funny, because I'm like, what does that mean? As you can tell, my allergies are trying to take me. Trying to take me today. I'm a little tired. Myfriend was trying to burn me out the bed.
Speaker 1:Where will Corinne get her pitter patter? That's so funny. I won't get it. Hold up, I'm not going to get it. Get it today, I guess. Today, I guess. Oh well, we have a little tradition that I do with some of the people from my old team where we do the pitter patter. Let's get at her from Letter Kenny, which is one of my favorite things to do. So that's about it. Why does it look like? Well, I hope you guys can hear this because for some reason it's acting like it's not picking me up, um, but I did put headphones on and listen to the last two minutes and was like, oh, okay, it is recording. So, like I said, I went to the store yesterday and, um, I was going to get supplies, obviously to make Spanish soup and, uh, some dayquil NyQuil to make him feel better, and I think, I think, I think his fever broke because he woke up all kinds of sweaty, but he was back to like normal temperature.
Speaker 1:So today I will be washing a lot of bedsheets because, oh gross, it's the first time he's been this sick in a while, though I think when we first started dating was the last time he'd been this sick. So, but anyway, health-wise everything is good with me, except these allergies every morning are so stupid. That's so funny, because this pitter patter thing is like driving my old team wild. Even one of the managers goes how are we supposed to start the day? I guess we pack it in. That's hilarious. Anyway, yeah, so went to the store, got supplies Sorry, this is taking forever because I keep getting distracted like a baby, this guy. So I got all my supplies.
Speaker 1:I'm walking out of the store, I've already paid for everything and this guy is with his wife, and not only does he stop on the way out of the exit of Publix, okay, so he stopped dead in front of me. They both don't look behind them to see if anybody else is behind them, and then they start walking again. So it was like a quick stop and then a go. So I was like, all right, fuck it, whatever. So of course, um, I'm still behind them with my cart of stuff as I'm walking outside and, um, we crossed the street. Whatever, I them with my cart of stuff as I'm walking outside, and we cross the street whenever I run with my cart because people have no patience in that parking lot. And I'm one of those people. I don't have patience in that parking lot because people just act like they're not people and that if they get hit by a car it doesn't matter. It does it do be mattering? So the guy, like he's walking behind the cars that are parked Okay, I'm still behind them. I could see the back of both of their heads very clearly. So of course I'm like all right, get to the other side. Perfect, didn't get hit by a car, didn't almost get hit by a car, followed proper pedestrian laws, whatever.
Speaker 1:This guy stops again behind an empty handicap spot with his cart, with his wife next to him, and he goes hey, what kind of bird do you think that is? To her, to his wife, and I'm like bro, get the fuck out of my way please. I'm not in the mood for this. It's like 445 and I want to get back home before all you dumb asses with the five o'clock rush, get out and start blocking up traffic and shit. So I was like who really fucking cares? What kind of bird Are you going to pull out a book? Is that ornithologists? I think ornithologists study birds. But I was like who really fucking cares? What kind of bird Are you going to pull out a book? Is that ornithologists? I think ornithologists study birds.
Speaker 1:But I was like is this guy going to pull out a fucking book and start flipping through it or learn how to do a bird call so that he could properly communicate with this bird? Like that's a question to ask once you finish food shopping. What kind of bird is that? Do you think I'm going to start doing that, like in the middle of conversation, even if I'm not outside. I'm just going to act like I see a bird and I go, yo, what kind of bird is that? So they could be like there's no bird and I'd be like are you sure? Meanwhile they start to look around. I wonder if that's what he did when he stopped in Publix, because sometimes like birds, I guess can get in. But he turned around and I like I being the nosy person, I am turned to look at what he was pointing at and there was nothing there either. So I was very confused. I was like this guy's just seeing birds in his head or what. But that's, that's my next thing. I'm going to start pointing out random birds in conversation, just to throw people off and see what happens.
Speaker 1:I like to experiment with conversations. I mean, what else is new? What else are we going to do? We can't change the English language anymore. Why not add some funky shit to it and make it interesting? Let's say, I know there's a lot of sniffling and inhaling going on. I can't breathe out of my nose to save my fucking life. So every time I say a sentence or two, I kind of like run out of air.
Speaker 1:Um, so Selena's killer, um, was denied parole yesterday, which I think is hilarious, because I don't know why she thinks she's going to be safer on the outside. Let's see, let's look this bitch up real quick. Yeah, yolanda Saldivar, that's so fucking funny bro. So let's read the article that has to do with why she thinks she deserves to get out of prison, because I think she should just be in there and stay safe. If she gets out, it's fucking just over. If she gets out, someone is gladly going to trade places with her in jail after killing her ass? I don't think anybody cares. So let's see.
Speaker 1:Yolanda Saldivar was the founder and president of the Tejano Stars fan club. Is there a fucking gnat in my face? Sorry, see what I mean. Is that a bird? What kind of bird is that?
Speaker 1:Yolanda Saldivar murdered Selena on March 31st 1995. She's claimed the shooting was accidental and that she was convicted by public opinion. Yeah, first of all, I would convict her purely based on the fact of how she looks. No, I'm kidding. She's eligible for parole for the first time on March 30th. Okay. So Sunday, this upcoming Sunday, the woman sentenced to life what the fuck? The woman sentenced to life in prison for murdering Tejano superstar Selena Quintanilla Perez, is up for parole and says she believes she deserves to be set free. You are wrong and I'm gonna tell you so many reasons why in a minute.
Speaker 1:Yolanda Saldivar, 64, who was the manager of Selena's clothing boutiques, selena, etc. And the founder and president of her fan club, shot and killed the 23-year-old Grammy Award winning singer on March 31st 1995 at a Days Inn in Corpus Christi, texas. By the way, if you ever read up on what happened or listen to a podcast about what happened, it was not great, it was not get out of here and that just like almost flew into my mouth. Anyway, what kind of word is that? Saldivar killed the Queen of Tejano after Selena's family fired her over allegations she forged checks to embezzle more than $30,000 from the star's fan club and boutiques. On March 31st 1995, selena went to Saldivar's motel room to pick up business records she needed to file taxes. According to the court testimony, saldivar pulled out a gun and shot the singer in the back. When Selena ran from the room, saldivar followed her in armed pursuit to the lobby where Selena collapsed, telling employees that Saldivar had shot her. According to 1998 appellate records Listen, that's it. The person who you shot was still alive to accuse you of shooting her. That's it you done. For the next nine hours Saldivar sat in her truck where she threatened to die by suicide before finally surrendering to police. She should have just killed herself, sorry, oops. Selena was rushed to a local hospital where she died from loss of blood and cardiac arrest.
Speaker 1:Saldivar was convicted in October 1995 and sentenced to life with the possibility of parole in 30 years. Now that day has come, on Sunday, march 30th. She will be eligible for parole at some point on that date or shortly after she will go to the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles, who will decide whether or not to release her. Well, they already made the choice not to. A spokeswoman for the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles said the board is expected to vote around that time, though there's no set date for when the decision will be announced. Saldivar and her family say that she deserves to be freed. Enough is enough. An unnamed relative of Saldivar's relatives told the New York Post in March 2024, she feels like she's a political prisoner at this point. She's ready to get out of jail because she believes she has more than served her time.
Speaker 1:Salavar has maintained that the shooting is that a? What bird is that? What kind of bird is that? Salavar has maintained that the shooting was accidental and that selena's superstardom influenced the sentence she received.
Speaker 1:I was convicted by public opinion even before my trial started. She said in the 2024 oxygen documentary documentary, selena and yolanda the secrets between them. First of all, don't nobody care about her opinion. If you shot someone and the person who killed you who you killed, excuse me said that you shot them, then yeah, you shot them. Why would she make that up? There's a hole in her body where there shouldn't be one.
Speaker 1:Meanwhile, former Nueces County District Attorney Carlos Valdez, who prosecuted the high-profile case, said granting Saldivar parole would be a serious mistake. Lord knows what will happen if she's released. Based on what I've seen so far, I think it would be a serious mistake to grant her parole. I believe I really believe that the safest for Yolanda would probably be where she is. Yes, she's going to get killed.
Speaker 1:According to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's website, saldivar is currently in the parole review process which he started in October 2024. Excuse me, I had a burp. If approved for parole, saldivar can be what is it Shit? If approved for parole, saldivar can be released no earlier than March 30th. If she's denied release, her next review will be from one to five years from the decision date. Let's see this shit now. I'm so sorry. That's so funny. All right, CNN has the article. Hopefully they don't try and stop me and be like hey, you get a membership because the answer is no. Okay. The woman who killed sorry, I had to take a sip of water because this coffee is like clogging me up, ew. By the way, what kind of bird is that?
Speaker 1:The woman who killed Tejano music icon Selena in 1995 has been denied parole, and this was Thursday, this was yesterday. The woman convicted of killing music legend Selena has been denied parole after spending decades behind bars for fatally shooting the young singer at a Texas motel in 1995. She is serving a life sentence at the Patrick L O'Daniel prison unit in Gatesville, texas. By the way that's Texas, don't they have stricter laws than that? A three-member panel of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles voted to not release her. The panel said her case will be eligible to be reviewed again for parole in 2030. She should just die in prison, just die there. I know that sounds mean, but like you killed someone who was in the public eye, who was beloved by her people, and do you think we're just going to let you go? Even if you do let go, I'm telling you, bruh, she's going to laugh. She better go into, like witness protection or some shit, because actually they'll recognize her face anyway. She's going to be fucking dead.
Speaker 1:The singer known to her fans as Simply Selena was one of the first Mexican-Americans to make it to the mainstream music scene. It was on the verge of crossing over into the English language pop market when she was killed. This bitch looks fucking evil, based on the picture. On the picture, saldivar founded Selena's fan club and had been the manager of the singer's clothing boutiques until she was fired in early March 1995 after money was discovered missing. This gnat needs to leave me alone.
Speaker 1:For real, selena, a Corpus Christi native, was 23 years old when she was shot in the back with a .38 caliber revolver at a day's end. Was it a day's end? Yeah, she was able to run to the motel lobby where she collapsed and she was pronounced dead at a hospital an hour later. Motel employees testified that Selena named Yolanda in room 158 as her attacker. It says I didn't mean to do it. I didn't mean to kill anybody, so you brought a gun to do what Talk do it. I didn't mean to kill anybody, so you brought a gun to do what Talk. A sobbing Saldivar said during a nine-hour standoff with police. She told police she had brought the .38 revolver to kill herself. So you should have done that. Be so fucking. For real. More than 50,000 people lined up to view Selena's body the day before she was laid to rest in Seaside
Speaker 1:Memorial Park. On April 3rd 1995, just 13 days before her wow, bruh 13 days before her 24th birthday Saldivar's retrial was moved to Houston because of the publicity surrounding the case. Saldivar testified that she had intended to kill herself. But during the confrontation with Selena that the gun okay, she said the gun misfired. Yes, it accidentally. Oh my God, your. She said the gun misfired. Yes, it accidentally. Oh my God, your honor, it accidentally misfired into someone's spinal column. It's not funny, but it's like. This is the excuse. On October 23rd 1995, a jury in Houston convicted Saldivar of first degree murder. She was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after
Speaker 1:30 years. Here's the thing, though you can't make this shit up, because they will try it. They will try and see what the possibility of misfiring at someone at a certain angle, if the possibility is likely, if they find out, or figure out by testing, that it's a no, then it's a no and you're going to jail. What? Okay, that you know it's fine to say that. It's fine to try and defend yourself in front of a jury of your peers, but it's not going to work because there's technology and even though 1995 and 2025 have a 30-year difference, even if they were to retry her, I'm pretty sure they'd get the same result. And it's even more laughable that a family member who said enough's enough, doesn't want their name in there. You know why they don't want their name in there Because they're going to be killed too, which isn't funny, but it's like. You know, I'm not sticking my neck out for a relative. If it actually happened, like if my mom goes and kills someone, I'm telling cops that my mom went and killed someone, like I love you, mom, but that's it. It's not going to be any other way
Speaker 1:than that. So let's see, while in prison, saldivar, a former nurse, obtained her paralegal and associate degree in criminal justice and has filed several civil rights complaints alleging mistreatment by the state's prison system. According to court records, she also helped other inmates to file petitions. Bruh, you killed someone and everybody. So what's funny is that everybody who goes into that system comes out with some kind of legal degree. Isn't that funny? In court documents filed in 2016, saldivar said she was being held in protective custody, meaning she was segregated from other inmates because prison officials were concerned for her safety due to the high profile nature of her case. She filed several appeals of her conviction, but all were rejected. Good, good, good. In any case, there's going to be a line of people waiting for her, so I really think that she should
Speaker 1:chill out. Let me see, do I have this other thing too? Let me just Google it then. Benny Blanco food, blanco, food. Okay, here we go. So this is what I read. So I read another article about Benny Blanco, and everybody goes crazy over him because his habits are not the same as everybody's, like with the whole tub of cheese when he produced, produced, proposed to Selena Gomez. So now the biggest thing is now we're going to go after him all the time for all the things he does with food that we would not do, which. Who the fuck cares? This I thought was funny, though. Stop showing me ads. People discussed it over Benny Blanco's diabolical shower habits and shocking video. I love the first line. Benny Blanco's at it again dividing the internet with his unconventional shower habits, but this time fans are calling his move diabolical. This is funny to me because it is kind of weird. It is kind of weird. Last year, blanco, whose real name is Benjamin Joseph Levin, went viral for admitting he doesn't shower
Speaker 1:every day. I also don't believe in always shampooing your hair or conditioning your hair. I'm really clean, but I don't shower every day. I also don't believe in always shampooing your hair or conditioning your hair. I'm really clean, but I don't shower every day. So I definitely don't wash my hair every day. So I'm okay with that, but the not showering every day is a little too much. You have a little too much, buddy. You have that crazy fro on your head, which is fine, because I understand why you won't wash it every day, but you have penis. You have penis
Speaker 1:and nuts. Don't tell me that you don't sweat at any point throughout the day, because then you should be studied. I even say to my boyfriend I'm like we go for walks and stuff and I sweat like a man. So I'm sweating everywhere Cheeks, tits, armpits, kitty cat. I'm sweating everywhere, okay, and um, he, he said he's fine, he don't, he don't sweat like that. Meanwhile I feel his arm and it's damp as fuck. He'd just be lying to me. Some people I know shower two to three times a day, but I feel like the oils on your skin don't have time to rejuvenate and get juicy. That's so what a nasty way. Why would you put juicy by skin? That's
Speaker 1:so crazy. The 37-year-old sparked mass debate, with some fans even pleading with his bride-to-be, selena Gomez, to leave him due to the disgusting hygiene habit that's so stupid. Now Blanco is back this time. The 11-time Grammy Award-nominated producer has given fans an insight into what goes down when he actually does decide to shower. I think he should also just be given a Grammy already at this point. What is
Speaker 1:that about? A quick clip was posted to TikTok, soundtracked by his and fiance Gomez's track how Does it Feel To Be Forgotten? It initially showed that Blanco had brought a bottle of Grey Goose vodka in to keep him company. Blanco then panned the camera to the left, showing a box of fried chicken and biscuits from Popeye's precariously placed on the side of the tub, which they give you a brief little snippet of, which is ballsy as fuck. A large Chipotle burrito is also sitting on the side of the bath without any packaging, alongside what appeared to be a pot of macaroni and cheese a pot of macaroni and cheese bruh. The artist, who has previously collaborated with Snoop Dogg, eminem and Gracie Abrams, then showed he was holding a large bowl of ramen noodles as he prepared
Speaker 1:to get. How much are you eating? How much do you need to eat to be in a tub? Blanco captioned his clip with the caption for real and has drawn comments from brands like Chipotle, dole Packaged Foods and Popeyes themselves. Quote unquote new self-care routine dropped the Louisiana chicken
Speaker 1:restaurant wrote. However, others have called the star out for this bizarre lineup, with one ex-user saying the bear burrito on the tub is diabolical. It is kind of gross. It is kind of gross to just not even have like a napkin under the burrito, but the burrito on the actual porcelain of the tub itself is kind of nasty because you can get anything on that. A second typed they need to stop eating in the bathroom. That's nasty. Gold handles, gray goose burritos in the bathtub or whatever lord said. Reply to tiktok user the burrito just chilling in the corner without a plate is stressing me out. However, a fifth commented such a tourist vibe. I love how you and selena are literal zodiac soulmates fun. Funnily enough, this isn't the first time that Blanca has used his bathroom as a second kitchen. For Valentine's Day, he placed a trail of tortilla chips on the floor leading to the bath, which was completely filled with melted cheese. When your fiance isn't much of a flowers girl. He wrote alongside a video capturing the
Speaker 1:wild gesture. Blanca and Gomez who have been dating since December 2023, have recently admitted there were some almost sabotages at the beginning of their relationship. Okay, I don't care about that. So he's a little weird. I don't really care about the. His cleaning lady must walk in there and be like what the fuck happened here this weekend? Or oh no, what did he do this time? How did he even begin to clean up a bathtub full of melted cheese? I need to know what that's like. I need to know what that cleaning regimen is like, because that cleaning woman must get bucco bucks for cleaning that up. Let me see, just see something really quick. Yes, each company code has similar, but its own set of books. Fine, fucking great. So now I have to work on three different things today, which is fine. It'll keep my day busy, I guess, but I'm also going to play some Assassin's Creed Shadows because I have nothing else
Speaker 1:going on. Another item will be Goldberg collapsing on table during Ben and Jen talks on the View. That's how I feel about it. And let's see, hold up, that's crazy. Here it is. Listen, we can only talk about them so much, ben and Jen, like it's enough. Whoopi Goldberg collapses onto the View table after struggling to get through discussion on jennifer lopez, ben affleck. Goldberg expressed extreme disinterest in talking about j-lo and affleck's divorce before she fell onto the hot topics table in protest while sarah haynes attempted to help her up. The whoopi goldberg war room reached a critical breaking point amid its ongoing military operations when his commander fell victim to an agonizing discussion about J-Lo and Ben
Speaker 1:Affleck's divorce. On Thursday morning's episode of the View Don't make it funny. Entertainment Weekly don't make it funny. Commander fell victim to stop. Don't make it funny. Get to the point. Make you funny. Get to
Speaker 1:the point. After, earlier in the episode, breaking down matters of extreme governmental importance regarding Pete Hegseth's national security scandal, the co-host shifted gears to react to fallout from Affleck and Lopez's divorce after the famous couple reignited their romance before getting married in 2022 and subsequently separating before their 2025 divorce. Joy Behar observed that people grow apart when it comes to romance, while Sunny Hostin observed that this was supposed to be true love between Ben and J-Lo, a statement that sent her co-host into a frenzy and dealt a near-fatal blow to the war room's defenses. Oh, here we go. No, you said it was true love. Goldberg clapped back. You're the only one who believed that. Hostin, the show's legal expert, who previously expressed hope for Affleck and Lopez's short-lived, rekindled romance, doubled down on her prior assessment. I think maybe it was true love. And then just something happened. Yeah, p Diddy happened, bruh, the P Diddy scandal came out and broke everything apart. That's what happened. Behar, unamused, responded oh, please all. While Goldberg's head slowly lowered to the table in protest over the topic that appeared to drain her life force. Just before her head reached the hot topics table, sarah Haynes reached over to help her colleague regain composure, while the ghost actress enthusiastically hit her iconic bell to signal for further help in detonating the conversation before things moved on. Are they being funny with this bell and war room shit. Am I going to have to watch an episode of the View to see if this is actually happening? Also, it's so funny that they reference a movie that's like 40 years old. Fucking ghost. That's the only thing Whoopi Goldberg is known for. That and not having eyebrows. Thankfully, mere seconds later, goldberg and the crew were able to salvage her sanity with a life-saving
Speaker 1:commercial break. Earlier this week, affleck opened up about his divorce from Lopez and an interview with GQ. There's no scandal, no soap opera, no intrigue. The truth is, when you talk to somebody, hey, what happened? Well, there is no. This is what happened. It's just a story about people trying to figure out their lives and relationships in ways that we all sort of
Speaker 1:normally do. The view airs weekdays at 11. By the way, let's see, that's the type of topics that they should stay on, not the real world stuff. You know what, joe, from this comment? This first comment? You're absolutely right, because what do these women know about what's going on on the outside besides what the fuck is written on a postcard or a piece of paper or a list that they have in front of them? The view has
Speaker 1:to end. The view is not a good show. It's not a place to get informed, it's nothing. It's five women who are interchangeable, with the exception of Whoopi Goldberg, who was the original, and Joy Behar. So those two are the only ones who have stayed there, because what do they have going on with their lives? Nothing. All these other people that are interchangeable go on to do other things with their lives and stupid little Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg are the only two hags with nothing going on and not making any other money, considering the fact that Whoopi Goldberg likes to say she's poor, have to stay on
Speaker 1:that show. I loved when Rosie O'Donnell was on. That lesbian was just, she was killing it, killing them with all the shit. I like opposing ideas like that. The bullshit they talk about now is so stupid to me. Another display showing the world her professionalism what a waste of television. You ain't lying? Uh, let's see. Whoopi does this all the time. It's boring, but at least she doesn't do that fake Valley girl voice. I'm so tired of this show. Whoop, anna and Sonny need to be replaced. Yup, I love this show, especially with Whoopi, who happens to be very smart and knowledgeable. No, she's not. Anna is also a smart cookie and a very loving person. I love Joy, who says it like
Speaker 1:it is. You must be old, because Joy Behar is another hag who knows nothing about nothing. I don't know anything about anything, but I know that these bitches know nothing. How about that? Whoopi, whoopsie and the other old lady truly think they can speak for all women is clueless. I hope JLo and Ben would have been, and that's the other
Speaker 1:thing. Okay. So people commenting on other people's relationships really kill me, because when they don't have a successful one, all they do is come out with bitterness towards it. Like I'm not. I'm one of those people who's been guilty of that. I've been a cynic of romantic shit for a very long time. And you know, when there's someone that comes along and shows you that things are different than the app, that's that's dope. That's the kind of people you need in your life, okay. But whoopie and joy I don't even know what joy is, joy married? I don't even know. I don't care. Whoopi Goldberg has been the biggest shit talker of every relationship that's ever existed in her lifetime, okay. So there's no way you're going to tell me that Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar know what's best in any relationship. I have never seen Joy Behar ever discuss her husband. I don't know if Joy, if Whoopi Goldberg's just given up and become a cat lady, or if she's a lesbian now or what. I don't know. I don't know. But I know that they shouldn't be commenting on young people's love. I know that. I
Speaker 1:know that. What else happened? Oh, I watched that movie Trap. Let me tell you something I don't. I kind of get it, but I don't Like M Night Shyamalan has to stop doing this with these movies. Okay, he does good stuff, he
Speaker 1:really does. My sister and I watched it Wednesday yes, wednesday, so, excuse me, we were watching it. It's basically this dad takes his daughter to a concert. Um, for a first singer that she that it's her one of her favorites. So she goes. They go to
Speaker 1:the concert. He starts acting weird. He, he wasn't acting weird in the beginning, he was acting like a typical dad. Then he tells his daughter he has to go to the restroom. So he goes to the restroom and he pulls up a video on his phone of some dude in a basement and I'm like bruh, what the fuck did we just get into? So of course, it goes from that to spiraling out of control for the entirety of the movie and my sister and I just keep looking at each other like there's no way that this could get crazier than this. Well, I just keep looking at each other like there's no way that this could get crazier than this. Well, it lied. Oh, we watched it Tuesday, sorry, it lied, okay, because it
Speaker 1:got crazier. Basically, what happens is he's a serial killer, all right, and they tell you that up front, so I'm not spoiling anything. He's a serial killer and basically what it is is these cops like SWAT and all this shit and FBI and a profiler and everything have him trapped at this concert to try and suss him out. And he figured like every step of the way they find another way to get in his way, to get out of there. So he's trying to figure out how to leave so that his daughter doesn't figure out what's going on. So he's not telling her, he's just being weird and she's noticing, she's picking up what he's putting down and, uh, funny enough, he is able to get out. Um, he gets home and it's a whole other thing and I'm like, all right, there's no way this can get crazier. And it does, and I'm not going to say any more
Speaker 1:about it. But Josh Hartnett is making a comeback, I see, because he's in some other movie coming out called fight or flight, and that looks good too. That looks like a bullet train on a plane. Um, that movie with Brad Pitt where there's nothing but spies on the fucking train and they're forget. I've watched that movie once. I think it might be a good, good movie to re-watch, because it was. It was particularly funny. And what's his name? The guy from Craven is
Speaker 1:in it. So, ah, fucking nut, I'm getting pissed. What kind of bird is that? Um, it's just flying around me because I have a cup of coffee, like bro. If you land in my shit, I swear to god, god, I'm going to burn this bitch down. Stop
Speaker 1:it Anyway. So I got, let me see, I got one more thing to talk about and, like I said, I know it was going to be a short one today because I don't want to make too much noise. Actually, you know what? There's two things I can talk about here. I'm laughing. What the fuck? After 180 chemo treatments, I'm not Jesus Christ. Anyway, I'm not gonna talk about that. That's crazy. Um, let me see. So Rachel Ziegler. Um, so far what I know, nobody I know wants to see that movie,
Speaker 1:snow White. I did see an interesting article that the son of the producer of the movie is pissed off. Son of director. Oh, here we go. Son of director of Snow White is hilarious On USA Today. Let's see, come on, I tapped you open. Nope, don't want that. Snow White producer son slams oh shit, it landed on my phone. Where'd it go? Fucker? Sorry, I was still trying to get this in that. I've been fighting with this thing this whole episode and I'm getting pissed off, bro. Let's see. Snow White producer son slams Rachel Zegler for hurting film with politics. You know what that happens a lot more than not. You know what that happens a lot more than than not, and uh, she just like, let's just read it. Let's just read it. The opening weekend of snow white may have passed, but the drama surrounding the film isn't
Speaker 1:going anywhere. Jonah platt, son of snow white producer mark platt, who's also the father of dear evan hansen's star, ben platt, has slammed star r Zegler in a since-deleted Instagram comment, partially blaming her for the movie's disappointing box office debut. The 38-year-old took issue with Zegler's social media activity, including her decision to post Free Palestine on X after thanking fans for watching the Snow White trailer last year. He also confirmed a report from Variety that his father flew to New York to speak with Zegler after she made her Free Palestine post. Zegler did not delete the post, which is still up on her ex-account, had to leave his family to fly across the country to reprimand his 20-year-old employee for dragging her personal politics into the middle of promoting the movie, for which she signed a multi-million dollar contract to get paid and do publicity for Platt, wrote in the since-deleted comment. According to Variety, the Hollywood reporter and people this is called adult responsibility and accountability and her actions clearly hurt the film's box office. Platt continued free speech does not mean you're allowed to say whatever you want in your private employment without repercussions. Tens of thousands of people worked on that film and she hijacked the conversation for her own immature desires, at the risk of all the colleagues and crew and blue-collar workers who depend on that movie to be successful. Narcissism is not something to be coddled or encouraged. You know? Someone's saying it very eloquently there's a time and a place for certain things like that, and it's not while you're promoting a movie that's supposed to make you money, bitch, you're fucking up your
Speaker 1:bag, okay. Snow White grossed 42 million in its opening weekend at the domestic box office, which was considered a disappointment compared to how other Disney live action remakes have performed. The live-action Little Mermaid opened to $95 million over three days in 2023, while 2015's Cinderella started with $67 million. The Snow White debut was roughly in line with the live-action Dumbo, which opened to $45 million in 2019. The movie, which received mixed reviews, was the subject of numerous controversies in the years leading up to its release, including due to remarks Zegler made that were seen as dismissive of the 1937 original. Some fans also took issue with the casting of the West Side Story star, who is of Colombian and Polish descent, as Snow White, though most critics had nothing but positive things to say about
Speaker 1:her performance. In addition to supporting Palestine on social media, zegler also posted on Instagram after the November presidential election that she hopes President Donald Trump and his supporters never know peace. Variety reported that Mark Platt also took issue with this post. Zegler later apologized and said she let my emotions get the best of me. Meanwhile, israeli actress Gal Gadot, who played the evil Queen in Snow White, drew protesters when receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame ahead of the film's debut. The Wonder Woman star was a combat fitness instructor in the Israel Defense Forces during her mandatory two years of service and has advocated for Israeli hostages of Hamas amid the Israel-Hamas war. Protesters gathered across the street from Gadot's Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony, with one holding a sign that read Snow White supports genocide. That's
Speaker 1:so crazy. Platt's Instagram comment followed a report from Variety dissecting the box office disappointment of Snow White and the role that Zegler's social media activity may have played in it, but the article prompted a wave of Zegler fans to defend her on social media. On X, one supporter argued that by reportedly refusing to delete her Free Palestine post, the actress demonstrated more backbone and integrity at 23 than 99% of powerful people in this country. Melissa Barrera, who was fired from Scream 7 due to her pro-Palestine social media posts on social media posts that the studio alleged constituted oh my god, the studio alleged constituted hate speech has also defended zegler. On her instagram story, the in the heights star reshared a post saying that zegler is cool as hell and full of integrity. Nobody cares what you think, melissa. That's why y'all bitches are
Speaker 1:getting fired. I wonder who would even like take them on as actresses after any of that like. Who's really like? You know what? These two are edgy. Let me put them in something so I make zero dollars. I mean, that would be it. What is this now? Okay, so essentially, what I've learned is people are fucking crazy. Um, rachel Zegler ruined a movie. Uh, whoopi Goldberg sucks. Let me see. Hold on. Let me see this. All right, this might be a good one to close on. Okay, let's see Girl 10 played dead while man killed her family and FaceTimed with woman who allegedly ordered rampage. Excuse me, what now? That second part of it's crazy. The 10-year-old girl later rushed to protect her baby brother and call family members for help once the killer left the residence.
Speaker 1:Let's see. A Texas man who murdered a Houston couple and their six-year-old daughter entered a guilty plea to capital murder charges just moments after his criminal trial got underway this week. Xavier Davis confessed to killing Gregory Carhe, dania Lagway and the couple's six-year-old daughter, harmony Carhe, on June 30th. The Houston Police Department said by the way, way, this is from 2021, holy fuck. The houston police department said at the time that davis forced his way into the family's apartment and shot car, he and lagway in front of three of the couple's kids. Davis then shot harmony in the head and also shot her 10 year old sister, who suffered a non-fatal bullet wound, and pretended to be dead until long after davis left the residence. According to police, once Davis had left, the surviving daughter locked the door and began calling family members while trying to protect and comfort her baby brother. The one person Davis did not shoot One child in the family, an eight-year-old boy, was not home at the time of the murders. Lagway had also learned she was pregnant with her fifth child just before
Speaker 1:her death. Fuck bro, it's crazy. I hate people. This is why I hate people, cause I'm sure there's. They're not going to give us a reason why this happened. Days later, police charged Davis with three counts three charges of capital murder and a single count of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon but by that point he was already in custody for an unrelated case. Subsequent investigation by police led to the arrest of a second suspect, with police alleging the killings were ordered by a woman who had dated Lagway. Oh my god, bro, just let the guy go. Just let the
Speaker 1:guy go. In March 2022, police arrested Alexis Williams on charges that included three counts of capital murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Alexis Williams had a prior dating relationship with one of the victims, ms Lagway, and they'd broken up shortly before the shootings. Wait let the girl. Oh my god, what. Hold up, ms Lagway. Okay, whatever Investigators learned. Williams arranged a robbery and suspect Davis was the shooter. Williams and Davis had been friends since they were children. Williams allegedly told Davis that he could rob the family home and take what he wanted if he would carry out the killings, police claimed in the news release. Her trial is set to get underway after this year and she has entered a plea of not guilty to all charges. At Williams' bond hearing a few days after her arrest, harris County District Attorney Sean Teer said that Davis had actually FaceTimed her during the murders. Holy fuck, prosecutors are seeking the death penalty in Davis's case, which is now moving on to the punishment phase. I like how they call it, the punishment phase. Oh my God, that's
Speaker 1:so crazy. Some people view their partners as possessions. Where does this article mention FaceTiming with a woman who ordered? Yeah, they left out some details, but, um, that's, it's really brave of a 10 year old to know to do that. You know, um couldn't open your. Oh fuck, that sucks. I sent my mom something and she said she couldn't open it. But, um, I might have to find a media link for her and send it, like I might have to go to YouTube or something. But yeah,
Speaker 1:that's crazy. That girl is really smart for knowing that she could pretend to play dead and she would get left alone and she had moments after that to do other things. Like. That's so fucking smart. Unfortunately, those parents didn't get to see how smart their daughter was, but that's really fucking smart, um, but yeah, so, uh, believe your kids, teach your kids the right thing to do. Um, let your kids figure it out. She, she sorted that shit out. I don't know, I'm getting tired now. I don't know what I'm saying. Um, but yeah, that little girl figured it out. That's,
Speaker 1:that's amazing. I think that that's it's insane to know, like, how kids can react under pressure situations like that. Like I'm pretty sure her parents never prepared her for anything like that and she knew instantaneously what to do. Like it probably grazed her head and she fucking just laid down and was like, all right, I'm going to just lay real still until I hear footsteps and then I'm going to fucking react. And then she did it. Smart ass little bitch. Good for her. I hope she becomes a lawyer or some shit. I hope she doesn't get placed into the foster system either. I hope she has other family she could stay with, because I hear that that system is a bitch and a half, which is what I went to school for, and what's funny is that I haven't been able to use
Speaker 1:it yet. But the reason why I wanted to get into mental health stuff was because, or any kind of you know system like that, like the healthcare system is because I watched when my grandfather passed away. I watched so many things in the hospital setting that I didn't really agree with, which is, you know, having patients wait in hallways on, like on those little gurney things. I don't like that. I don't like that. This healthcare system is so flawed. I don't
Speaker 1:like that. You know, unless you have a really good job, you have shitty insurance. I worked for the county. I worked for Orange County, new York. When I lived in New York and I had really good insurance. Everything was like 20 bucks or less for me to go see a doctor, and at my current job the benefits are trash. I'm paying 200 every week, 200 every two weeks and still having to pay out of pocket for shit is kind
Speaker 1:of shitty. So I'm not 100% unhealthy, but I have asthma. If I get sick, I get really sick and I don't think I should have to pay $100 for a doctor's visit. But that's just me. I don't have money like that to burn on medicines or doctor's visits or anything like that, and everything is out of pocket until you meet a deductible. Sad to say it, but I don't like my job's insurance and I don't care if anybody hears that from my job because, congratulations, you're healthier than
Speaker 1:I am. But yeah, I'm going to end on that, because my allergies are telling me it's time to blow my nose again and I think I'm going to reheat my coffee and just chill out for the rest of the day because it's a Friday. I think I have like three projects to work on and just chill out for the rest of the day because it's a Friday. I think I have like three projects to work on, but obviously they're not all going to get done, even though I was like putting pressure on this client to return paperwork to me. I really don't give a fuck, they can blow me, but anyway I will catch you all next week. Sorry, it was late today, but at least it's not crazy late or dismissed and I'm going to pat myself on the back for that. Love you guys and see you next week. Bye.
