Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of shrunk
trend Head.

I liked in the sequel. Well, I don't want to
it's not really a spoiler. Spoiler. There's the little shrunkenhead. Guys.
They're like his like friends, oh nice, or maybe like
minions now.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Yeah, or maybe like servants that probably want to be
freed from the shackles of being, you know, under the
spell of Beetlegeist.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
But who knows.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
It's really about colonialism in the end Beetle g Yeah,
a lot of ways.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
My name is Jack O'Brien. That over there is Miles Bray.
This is the episode where we tell you a couple
of the things that are trending right now this very day, Tuesday,
October twenty second, twenty twenty four, and we are in person.
We're sitting next to each other holding hands, recording this podcast.
My hands are very sweaty. Yeah, Myles is doing a
(00:54):
good job dealing with it.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Well, I'm just dry heaving off mic. That's fine. We're
in New York. The big the big big Apple. Yeah,
the big construction.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Site is there's always scaffolding. There's always place.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
You wake up and hear construction trucks backing up and
moving forward.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
They just back up and move forward all day. Hey,
So what do you do, pal?
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Yeah, I like to back this truck up every five minutes,
and I move it up.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
I move it up about ten feet.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Bad hotel, Like, the hotels are really hit and miss
in my in my experience, it's because every.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Well, I mean, it's it's it's it's a perfect example
of America. It's either super expensive or kind of cheap
and awful.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Yeah, it ain't. It ain't home alone too out here
for all of us, you know. Yeah, in the Presidential suite. Yeah, man,
it's tiny. My room is teeny tiny.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Did you at least get like a ice cream Sunday
to your room service for Kevin McCall's mid friend with
the guy brought it up. Yeah, and you gave him
some fruit stripe gum as a tip. That's right, always,
always all right.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
So it is that time of year when Google rips
us off and does the Google fright Geist, which is good.
It's good actually good for the brand popularizing zeit guys. Yeah,
also good for Google's brand to be associated with us obvious,
but yeah, freight geist is where they take a look
(02:25):
at their search data and say.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
These are the costumes that are jumping out at us.
This is the list of the top. So in the
past they've done the top costumes overall. This year, they're
just giving us trending costumes miles. They have taken my
editorial feedback. They have, they have, they've so in all
those letters filled with mysterious powder, weren't for nothing you
(02:50):
sent to Google? Yeah, with my fingernail clipping and I dandriff.
Uh So.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
The the thing what we've seen in the past is
that they were just printing whatever the machine gave them,
Like it would be like number one costume Superhero, number two,
Spider Man, number three, Spider Superhero. It was just like
Minion and Yellow pill Man. Couldn't you take a single
(03:20):
editorial pass over this?
Speaker 1 (03:22):
And I'm proud to announce, I'm proud of Google that
they have taken what appears to be a single editorial
pass over their results. And it's a little more interesting
this time around.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Yeah, because before it would just be like Cape guy,
and now we're getting real things like number one, number one,
number one with a bullet. Are we really thinking this
is the number one costume. It's the number one trending costume. Sure, okay,
so I guess what we have to fucking revisit every
day to see.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
They also give you a little summer so. Number one,
as the name of this episode suggests, is shrunken head Bob.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
The Beetlejuice character shrunk and head Bob. Uh.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Their their summation of this is Beetlejuice shrunken Head is
the top search shrunken head of all time. Uh excuse me, who, motherfucker?
Speaker 3 (04:18):
I want this list to reflect what I'm going to
see out in the streets, you know what I mean?
Not just I don't know. This is the most shrunken
head search thing ever.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Okay, that's a costume again, this this has to be
ai man like that.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
No human thought that was an okay thing to put down.
Beetlejuice shrunken Head is the top search shrunken head of
all time. Therefore, it is the number one overall costume
for Halloween.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I'm surprised. Like, election shit isn't in here.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
I know, Georgia Polling is the third most searched costume.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Like what huh?
Speaker 1 (04:55):
So what else we got. We got ray Gun. That's
begs number two. I see more people do it meme
easy ray Gun. Of course the breakdancwer. I just assumed
it was like some anime character. I didn't know about
it first, But now ray Gun, uh, you know, probably
one of the top five characters from the Daily zeis
this year.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
I would say, yeah, and James Carville.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
And James Carville, we're gonna we're gonna get get into
it with that boy tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
James Carville not on this list. I don't think it's accurate.
It's being a suppress and censored.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
I feel like you could just get a flesh tone
like one of those body like monochrome body suits, and
then you'd basically James James.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yeah, yeah, call they put some beef jerky on it.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
For There are some of these that make me feel
old as fuck, such as number three most trending costume Catnap.
A Catnap is the top search smiling critter of all time.
Hm hm again like that, nothing about like that. This
is the number one costumes are eating.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
The sub headline. The more I'm convinced this is not
even close to what is a trending cast. It's merely
off of like why why isn't like Cat Knapp costume?
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yes, you know what I mean, just yes, some of
them do. Say that Lady Deadpool costume became a breakout
search the day that Deadpool and Wolverine was released in
US theaters. That makes sense, that's what we're looking for here.
Part Corsett is being searched more than ever in twenty
twenty four, and Sabrina Carpenter is the top person searched
with it. Yes, that makes sense. Sabrina Carpenter is going
to There's gonna be some Sabrina Carpenter costumes out there.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
But like Chipotle.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Burrito, it just says New Hampshire and Alaska are the
only state searching Chipotle Burrito over Chipotle Bowl in the
last five years.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
That's just the fact about searching for Chipotle dishes. What
the fucks you have to do with the costume?
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Like again, now you're getting some anger from I'm not
I'm pissed again.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
They fucked up.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
I gave them one simple trick to get people to
like your freitgeist and they fucked up.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
And I'm using Selson Blue so I don't have you
know the Dann driff like I used to sell and
nondescript envelopes to them in a menacing manner.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
So we're gonna we're kind of out and have to
take it up.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Like Wolverine, I get anything from these movies that have
come out or like things that have happened like at
the Olympics. I totally am like, Okay, reygun makes sense.
I've seen people already getting their raygun shit together. I've
seen Deadpool Wolverine couple costumes. Yeah, that one makes that
the stuff from inside out totally. They are like five
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice reference.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Like Delia Deaths.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
They've also got Dolorous from Beetlejuice. Yeah, which was.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
Monica Balucci's character, which was kind of like a weak
ass character in the movie. I don't know why the
fuck people like, I mean, I get it because it's
like you could be hot with staples in your face.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Oh yeah, and then you're Monica Balucci from Beetlejuice Beetle
Juice and down a number twenty three hot staple face.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Uh the is Lydia deets Lydia's uh what noa ryder?
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Yeah, we got Delia Deeps, We got Lydia Deeths so
Beetle Juice. Beetlejuice has four characters in the time twenty five,
whereas number eighteen.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Uh huh Dune Dune, Just Dune. Who are you for Halloween? Dune, Dune?
What's your costume? It's Dune, man. I'm just I'm just
fucking a bucket popcorn. It does.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Over the past year, the top searched popcorn bucket was
for Dune. That tells me absolutely nothing about what we're
here to talk about. Yeah, you motherfuckers.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
I feel like also, I feel like they did this
to spite us. Well, yeah, I think they read our
letters and we're like, look at these assholes.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
See, I'm gonna show my therapist because I'm telling you,
I told her they're trying to piss me off, me specifically,
and I know it's not just some kind of error,
It's targeted at me. The other one that is really
freaking me out. Number twenty four.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Just under the Wire Soldier Boy, Solja Boy as in
Crank That Soldier Boys Superman.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
That Now Wap Me You You is number twenty four,
a song that when I hear it, I still like
it every fucking time.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
I'm just like, God damn the song. It just gets
everybody going.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
The thing that freaks about is when you search it though,
it's all these like white.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
White girls and the Soldier boys.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
And doing a very bad job of cranking that. Oh no, yeah,
they're cranking my chain.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
You know what I'm saying. The dancing.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I'm gonna that you're gonna be so good at giving
out candy when people are dressed as Soldier Boy and
you say you must be cranking my chain.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
If that costs with this, I can't get jiggy with that.
Google does.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Google does helpfully tell us crank that is Soldier Boy's
most searched song of all time. That tells me nothing, Google,
Yeah that not only is that unrelated.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
To this, it's also so fucking obvious. Yeah we do.
That was their number one.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Soldier Boy is known for the song cranked that. Uh
huh what else?
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Now?
Speaker 3 (09:53):
The other part, though, the other thing I do get
Gambit is number seventeen. I think with X Men ninety
seven coming back, that's a huge I think that's it.
That was that was big for us Gambit fans. Although
that's another hard ass costume to pull off. He got
like a fucking like he has like a half a
shisty with the top of the hair gone with like
a metallic headset.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Not everybody can dress like that.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
How you getting a shrunk and head bob costume? I
got to take a look at what they're What people
are pulling on extensive.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Is a shrunken head.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Yeah, that feels very like high level of difficulty. Yeah, no, no, no,
that people, this is this is nonsense. I do like
this spooky thing, but they've added new categories like party
themes or spooky food.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Yeah, what are we looking at all? Right?
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Party theme number one miles, You're never going to guess
this based on the last list. Oh and we have
said it three times, so we're fucked.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Oh no, mystery. I like that.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
I love this holiday party theme. Skeleton. That's a that's
scale party, just scales. Yeah, what is it?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Look like they've been smoked up for three days smoking masquerade?
Masquerade isn't inherently a costume party. Some kind of masquerade
I know what they're talking about, though, like the fancy
ones where you have like a little stick.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Have you been invited to a masquerade party? I've been
to a gala for which was mass isn't that the
one Jeffrey Eperstein invited you to? He was there?
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I don't know that he was his party, right, Yeah? No,
so his girl invited me.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Wait, isn't that like the like the ceramic masks and
ship basically? Yeah, come on, it's just like something. It's
like a little kitty cool fundraiser favorite Alice in Wonderland makes.
At least that's like a whole vibe nineties this one.
I do believe nineties because we've that fucking that loop
has certainly come back into into popularity focus. Yeah, Monster Mash, Yeah,
(11:46):
that's kind of fun. What is a Monster Mash theme party?
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I guess it would be you'd have like wolf Man's,
like all the characters from the Monster Mash, or you
just inviting Shout out to Nick Wikers annual appearance on
comedy bang Bag. Have you ever heard that he does
a he does a remake of the Monster Mash that horribly.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Horribly pornographic. Well, I'm looking at the Mummy. The foods
Number one is mummy hot dogs. What is a is again?
Is this a real thing? What is a mummy hot dog? Oh? Okay,
so you take a hot dog and you just put
a bunch of dough around it like it's a mummy.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
That's okay, that looks that sounds like a lot of
fucking work. Sounds like a lot of work and it sucks.
This is how I know this list is bullshit though.
Party theme number seven Scream.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Ah yes, why yeah? How because you're Nev Campbell. Oh
so you go as Nev Camble. Don't just wear like
low rise jeans. I'll wear my little short like blonde
bob wig and I'll be Drew Barrymore.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Yeah, because I feel like there's only one costume for Scream.
You just have a bunch of walking around.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Yeah, yeah, that sounds like a shitty party theme. Man, well, Google,
you fucked it up again. You're this close Google d
minus instead of an F this time because you like
at least head fake. You made a head fake like
you're gonna actually try. Yeah, Dune, dude, this is so funny.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I'm Dune costumes.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
It's probably costumes for like dads who are trying to
find common ground or don't know anything.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
It's like, hey, I'm Dune, may do you get it?
Speaker 3 (13:26):
But just have like the breathing tube in the nose.
It's like, isn't that Grandma's oxygen? You to get that
shipp back to her? And what the fuck is what's
up with your eyes? He's like, I put blue ink
in them?
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Is it cool? I'm like, I don't know. I'd be
worried about chasing the wrong way.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
All right, nice kitty, All right, let's take a quick
break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
And we're back. We're back, We're.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Back, and we'll get a little bit more into the
polar coaster tomorrow. I think we're all anyone with bad
media consumption habits, like myself. You might be freaking out
a little bit about the polls. You know, now Trump's
got a fifty one percent chance of winning instead of
Kamala have fifty one percent last time.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
But the most easily manipulated audience, for sure. Yeah that
is I got a check back. I got a check back.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
I am just holding my hands up in the air
for the next month. But there's been a lot of
two weeks. Also, remember that two weeks.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
There's been a lot of talk.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
In addition to the polls, people are like, actually, the
really good predictive factor is polymarkets, which sounds like an
investment firm for people in open relationships, but is actually
a blockchain based prediction market that utilizes the state coin
USDC for trading. Okay, all right, cool, and that all
(15:06):
made sense to me and went into my brain and
my brain knew what to do with it.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
It's a crypto betting market, but in addition to sports,
you can bet on almost anything. One of the hot
items right now that people are wagering on as whether
or not RFK Junior and Cheryl Hines will divorce by
the end of twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Ah, that's yeah, that's that's an interesting one. Yeah, I can.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
I would first say no because she's already been through
so much shit, but now the stuff where it's like
he wanted to impregnate that journalist, Yeah, some owner shit
like that. I'm like, Cheryl, Yeah, how much can you take?
Divorces take a long time, though. I feel like, you know,
divorced by twenty twenty four yea, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Like, if it's announced that they're splitting, maybe.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
But then the fine print is like no, when the
actual divorce is actually the settlement.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Is happening, Like I feel like there's a lot of.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
I mean, and that would be the problem with a
betting market that is all focused on.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Day to day life is it's like, first of all,
it's messy.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Second of all, it turns everybody into those creepy mask
guy orgies from squig game. Yeah and yeah, So the
obviously the most popular betting market. It involves predicting the
outcome of the twenty twenty four presidential election. And Trump
supporters have been very excited to report that been the
(16:31):
poly markets. With the poly market, pol markets are saying
this thing, Trump is going to win, laughing, He's now
has a sixty four percent chance of winning. Kamala Harris
is a thirty six percent chance of winning.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
Uh huh so And why wouldn't you bet big if
you're probably over leveraged in crypto and hoping that the
Trump administration will bring like a financial boon to you.
And also this is the thing, this just reeks of
like another pole manipulation kind of thing to create the perception.
Just like with the Red Wave, it was a lot
(17:06):
of partisan shit that was getting people like being like
the Red Waves did full the betting market, Yeah, like
that they were like blake masters is a shoe in
and he like having like literally no support. Yeah, it
was actually a red wedding, right, which is what happened.
And I know the wave and a wedding are so
close they start with the same letter.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
But no, no.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
The company literally suggests that you should bet on your beliefs.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
So it's not even saying like fuck is that?
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, which, by the way, what one of them is
whether or not Kamala Harris ever worked at McDonald's.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
They have like a market for that.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
But so Polymarket did hire Nate Silver back in July. Wow,
So they're trying to you know, pull in all the people.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Yeah, I think again, this that that whole thing reeks
of everything else the up is doing to get people
primed to say this was stolen exactly the event that
Donald Trump doesn't win.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Yeah, you have all this stuff.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
For people going to well, look, I mean we had this,
it was in the bag for this thing, right, we
had all the we had all the momentum in this state.
Because they're already doing the thing where if like something
happens in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Where on election Day it's like, oh Trump's.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
Winning and they're like they haven't counted the absentee ballots, asshole.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Right, right, and then and then it swings it the
other way.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
They're like a lot of the people who are like
observing the sort of like fuckery about the election, like
they're priming people again for it's gonna be some absentee
ballot swings to be like this is bullshit, this is stolen.
I just put seventy thousand dollars in the poly market
for this.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Right, fuck yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
I mean so, Trump's position in the market, like the
his percentage chance of winning skyrocketed when Elon Musk started
pointing to Trump's polymarket lead as a more accurate representation
of the race, and it had absolutely nothing tied to
polling or the real world. It was just basically he said,
(19:02):
he's leading the prediction markets and those actually matter. And suddenly,
you know, the people who follow Elon Musk and Donald
Trump started paying attention to the poly markets and it
fucking blew up. It's also backed by Peter Teel. Interestingly,
Peter Teal was heavily involved in Blake. Like Blake Masters
(19:25):
was just like Peter Teel's like errand boy for a
long time, right, and like that's the only reason Blake
Masters was a political candidate was because he was in
with Peter Teel, and Peter Teel decided to like, you know,
just create from whole cloth a political candidate. And he
was performing well in the batting markets and people were like,
(19:47):
I think this kid might do it. And then it
turns out because of things like him being a physical
void of charisma, it did. It didn't go so well
for him in the actual election. Yeah, so I don't know.
Our writer JM is pointing out that like these public
(20:10):
betting markets on elections have existed over much of US history.
They're like technically illegal right now, but these are able
to function because they're like overseas and the interneticut. But
they actually go back to the election of George Washington,
there were like a lot of people gambling on that
and they were originally made illegal because they can actually
(20:32):
sway elections.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
I love that, And I think along with that, there's
this other thing that's the trending story about how people
that were hired by America Pack, which is the pack
that Elon Musk from US. Yeah, that canvassers are using
apps to just avoid door knocking. So right, this one
canvassor was hired by the pack posted a video online
(20:58):
outlining how to use GPS spoofing to make it seem
as if they're doing the work of going out to
turn out the door. Yeah, and like going like house
to house when it's like but the thing is, you
can do this and claim the money, uh, and you
don't have to do a single thing. He also has
tips as to like how to do it like slowly
(21:18):
enough so it doesn't look shady to whoever's like supervising.
This guy is devouring block after blocking matter of minutes, like, oh,
call the Pentagon.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I think I think it's soldier boy.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
But yeah, so I think now this is like a
huge thing that calls into question, like how many people
are they actually reaching if you have people because these
are all paid canvassers. A lot of the time in
a traditional campaign you have volunteers. And I've worked on
campaigns where you pay canvassers or people to gather signatures
a lot of the time. When it's there's it's usually
(21:50):
not tied to like a quota. Yeah, they're just out
there and be like, oh, yeah, I did the work.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
I can only get this much.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Let me have my check now, which makes sense because like,
if you don't believe in it or give a fuck
about it, then what incentive do you have to go
through with it? So I think with this, like a
lot of people are like, yeah, man, they're paying us,
and like, also there, our whole economy is a scam,
So why don't just scam these fucking people too and.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Just say I door knocked. Yeah. But this is the
other thing too.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
We talked about I think on Monday, how America pack
is actually most of the Trump campaigns like ground Game,
the yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
The one that just buys so Facebook ads that are
just screen caps of Elon Musk.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
So he's just throwing money out at people that are
you know, conceived. Not not to say that everyone is
doing that, but potentially there are people just being like, yeah, bro,
I'm just fucking skimming the money off of this ship.
Then it's really hard to know like how how many
people they've actually talked to and what the turnout will be.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
But anyway, I for.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
One, I'm called that people who uh support and idolized
Donald Trump would be grifters.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
That's that's fine. I know, I know, I know, I know,
you do you do hate hey, dry your eye, man,
dry your eye.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
I can't just coming all right, well fuck fuck those people,
but also like good.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Good on that. Take the money, yeah, please take the money.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Maybe yeah, maybe they're actually maybe it's an op and
they're just like pretending to be Trump supporters. Okay, but
Kamala door knockers, don't fucking do that, you dumb dumbs.
Just just do the I feel like she I feel
like Kamala supporters wouldn't do that, right, Well.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
But again you have it's a difference between paid people
and volunteers, right right, Like you want like that's the
whole lifeblood of like a campaign, is you want volunteers
or like engaged and are willing to go to neighborhoods where.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Most people are like are you a lib Yeah, and
they'd be like, yeah, yeah, I have a shout out

it's not really a spoiler. Spoiler. There's the little shrunkenhead. Guys.
They're like his like friends, oh nice, or maybe like
minions now.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Yeah, or maybe like servants that probably want to be
freed from the shackles of being, you know, under the
spell of Beetlegeist.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
But who knows.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
It's really about colonialism in the end Beetle g Yeah,
a lot of ways.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
My name is Jack O'Brien. That over there is Miles Bray.
This is the episode where we tell you a couple
of the things that are trending right now this very day, Tuesday,
October twenty second, twenty twenty four, and we are in person.
We're sitting next to each other holding hands, recording this podcast.
My hands are very sweaty. Yeah, Myles is doing a
(00:54):
good job dealing with it.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Well, I'm just dry heaving off mic. That's fine. We're
in New York. The big the big big Apple. Yeah,
the big construction.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Site is there's always scaffolding. There's always place.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
You wake up and hear construction trucks backing up and
moving forward.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
They just back up and move forward all day. Hey,
So what do you do, pal?
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Yeah, I like to back this truck up every five minutes,
and I move it up.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
I move it up about ten feet.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Bad hotel, Like, the hotels are really hit and miss
in my in my experience, it's because every.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Well, I mean, it's it's it's it's a perfect example
of America. It's either super expensive or kind of cheap
and awful.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Yeah, it ain't. It ain't home alone too out here
for all of us, you know. Yeah, in the Presidential suite. Yeah, man,
it's tiny. My room is teeny tiny.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Did you at least get like a ice cream Sunday
to your room service for Kevin McCall's mid friend with
the guy brought it up. Yeah, and you gave him
some fruit stripe gum as a tip. That's right, always,
always all right.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
So it is that time of year when Google rips
us off and does the Google fright Geist, which is good.
It's good actually good for the brand popularizing zeit guys. Yeah,
also good for Google's brand to be associated with us obvious,
but yeah, freight geist is where they take a look
(02:25):
at their search data and say.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
These are the costumes that are jumping out at us.
This is the list of the top. So in the
past they've done the top costumes overall. This year, they're
just giving us trending costumes miles. They have taken my
editorial feedback. They have, they have, they've so in all
those letters filled with mysterious powder, weren't for nothing you
(02:50):
sent to Google? Yeah, with my fingernail clipping and I dandriff.
Uh So.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
The the thing what we've seen in the past is
that they were just printing whatever the machine gave them,
Like it would be like number one costume Superhero, number two,
Spider Man, number three, Spider Superhero. It was just like
Minion and Yellow pill Man. Couldn't you take a single
(03:20):
editorial pass over this?
Speaker 1 (03:22):
And I'm proud to announce, I'm proud of Google that
they have taken what appears to be a single editorial
pass over their results. And it's a little more interesting
this time around.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Yeah, because before it would just be like Cape guy,
and now we're getting real things like number one, number one,
number one with a bullet. Are we really thinking this
is the number one costume. It's the number one trending costume. Sure, okay,
so I guess what we have to fucking revisit every
day to see.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
They also give you a little summer so. Number one,
as the name of this episode suggests, is shrunken head Bob.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
The Beetlejuice character shrunk and head Bob. Uh.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Their their summation of this is Beetlejuice shrunken Head is
the top search shrunken head of all time. Uh excuse me, who, motherfucker?
Speaker 3 (04:18):
I want this list to reflect what I'm going to
see out in the streets, you know what I mean?
Not just I don't know. This is the most shrunken
head search thing ever.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Okay, that's a costume again, this this has to be
ai man like that.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
No human thought that was an okay thing to put down.
Beetlejuice shrunken Head is the top search shrunken head of
all time. Therefore, it is the number one overall costume
for Halloween.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I'm surprised. Like, election shit isn't in here.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
I know, Georgia Polling is the third most searched costume.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Like what huh?
Speaker 1 (04:55):
So what else we got. We got ray Gun. That's
begs number two. I see more people do it meme
easy ray Gun. Of course the breakdancwer. I just assumed
it was like some anime character. I didn't know about
it first, But now ray Gun, uh, you know, probably
one of the top five characters from the Daily zeis
this year.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
I would say, yeah, and James Carville.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
And James Carville, we're gonna we're gonna get get into
it with that boy tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
James Carville not on this list. I don't think it's accurate.
It's being a suppress and censored.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
I feel like you could just get a flesh tone
like one of those body like monochrome body suits, and
then you'd basically James James.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yeah, yeah, call they put some beef jerky on it.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
For There are some of these that make me feel
old as fuck, such as number three most trending costume Catnap.
A Catnap is the top search smiling critter of all time.
Hm hm again like that, nothing about like that. This
is the number one costumes are eating.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
The sub headline. The more I'm convinced this is not
even close to what is a trending cast. It's merely
off of like why why isn't like Cat Knapp costume?
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yes, you know what I mean, just yes, some of
them do. Say that Lady Deadpool costume became a breakout
search the day that Deadpool and Wolverine was released in
US theaters. That makes sense, that's what we're looking for here.
Part Corsett is being searched more than ever in twenty
twenty four, and Sabrina Carpenter is the top person searched
with it. Yes, that makes sense. Sabrina Carpenter is going
to There's gonna be some Sabrina Carpenter costumes out there.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
But like Chipotle.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Burrito, it just says New Hampshire and Alaska are the
only state searching Chipotle Burrito over Chipotle Bowl in the
last five years.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
That's just the fact about searching for Chipotle dishes. What
the fucks you have to do with the costume?
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Like again, now you're getting some anger from I'm not
I'm pissed again.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
They fucked up.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
I gave them one simple trick to get people to
like your freitgeist and they fucked up.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
And I'm using Selson Blue so I don't have you
know the Dann driff like I used to sell and
nondescript envelopes to them in a menacing manner.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
So we're gonna we're kind of out and have to
take it up.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Like Wolverine, I get anything from these movies that have
come out or like things that have happened like at
the Olympics. I totally am like, Okay, reygun makes sense.
I've seen people already getting their raygun shit together. I've
seen Deadpool Wolverine couple costumes. Yeah, that one makes that
the stuff from inside out totally. They are like five
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice reference.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Like Delia Deaths.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
They've also got Dolorous from Beetlejuice. Yeah, which was.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
Monica Balucci's character, which was kind of like a weak
ass character in the movie. I don't know why the
fuck people like, I mean, I get it because it's
like you could be hot with staples in your face.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Oh yeah, and then you're Monica Balucci from Beetlejuice Beetle
Juice and down a number twenty three hot staple face.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Uh the is Lydia deets Lydia's uh what noa ryder?
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Yeah, we got Delia Deeps, We got Lydia Deeths so
Beetle Juice. Beetlejuice has four characters in the time twenty five,
whereas number eighteen.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Uh huh Dune Dune, Just Dune. Who are you for Halloween? Dune, Dune?
What's your costume? It's Dune, man. I'm just I'm just
fucking a bucket popcorn. It does.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Over the past year, the top searched popcorn bucket was
for Dune. That tells me absolutely nothing about what we're
here to talk about. Yeah, you motherfuckers.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
I feel like also, I feel like they did this
to spite us. Well, yeah, I think they read our
letters and we're like, look at these assholes.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
See, I'm gonna show my therapist because I'm telling you,
I told her they're trying to piss me off, me specifically,
and I know it's not just some kind of error,
It's targeted at me. The other one that is really
freaking me out. Number twenty four.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Just under the Wire Soldier Boy, Solja Boy as in
Crank That Soldier Boys Superman.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
That Now Wap Me You You is number twenty four,
a song that when I hear it, I still like
it every fucking time.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
I'm just like, God damn the song. It just gets
everybody going.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
The thing that freaks about is when you search it though,
it's all these like white.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
White girls and the Soldier boys.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
And doing a very bad job of cranking that. Oh no, yeah,
they're cranking my chain.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
You know what I'm saying. The dancing.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I'm gonna that you're gonna be so good at giving
out candy when people are dressed as Soldier Boy and
you say you must be cranking my chain.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
If that costs with this, I can't get jiggy with that.
Google does.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Google does helpfully tell us crank that is Soldier Boy's
most searched song of all time. That tells me nothing, Google,
Yeah that not only is that unrelated.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
To this, it's also so fucking obvious. Yeah we do.
That was their number one.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Soldier Boy is known for the song cranked that. Uh
huh what else?
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Now?
Speaker 3 (09:53):
The other part, though, the other thing I do get
Gambit is number seventeen. I think with X Men ninety
seven coming back, that's a huge I think that's it.
That was that was big for us Gambit fans. Although
that's another hard ass costume to pull off. He got
like a fucking like he has like a half a
shisty with the top of the hair gone with like
a metallic headset.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Not everybody can dress like that.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
How you getting a shrunk and head bob costume? I
got to take a look at what they're What people
are pulling on extensive.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Is a shrunken head.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Yeah, that feels very like high level of difficulty. Yeah, no, no, no,
that people, this is this is nonsense. I do like
this spooky thing, but they've added new categories like party
themes or spooky food.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Yeah, what are we looking at all? Right?
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Party theme number one miles, You're never going to guess
this based on the last list. Oh and we have
said it three times, so we're fucked.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Oh no, mystery. I like that.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
I love this holiday party theme. Skeleton. That's a that's
scale party, just scales. Yeah, what is it?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Look like they've been smoked up for three days smoking masquerade?
Masquerade isn't inherently a costume party. Some kind of masquerade
I know what they're talking about, though, like the fancy
ones where you have like a little stick.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Have you been invited to a masquerade party? I've been
to a gala for which was mass isn't that the
one Jeffrey Eperstein invited you to? He was there?
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I don't know that he was his party, right, Yeah? No,
so his girl invited me.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Wait, isn't that like the like the ceramic masks and
ship basically? Yeah, come on, it's just like something. It's
like a little kitty cool fundraiser favorite Alice in Wonderland makes.
At least that's like a whole vibe nineties this one.
I do believe nineties because we've that fucking that loop
has certainly come back into into popularity focus. Yeah, Monster Mash, Yeah,
(11:46):
that's kind of fun. What is a Monster Mash theme party?
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I guess it would be you'd have like wolf Man's,
like all the characters from the Monster Mash, or you
just inviting Shout out to Nick Wikers annual appearance on
comedy bang Bag. Have you ever heard that he does
a he does a remake of the Monster Mash that horribly.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Horribly pornographic. Well, I'm looking at the Mummy. The foods
Number one is mummy hot dogs. What is a is again?
Is this a real thing? What is a mummy hot dog? Oh? Okay,
so you take a hot dog and you just put
a bunch of dough around it like it's a mummy.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
That's okay, that looks that sounds like a lot of
fucking work. Sounds like a lot of work and it sucks.
This is how I know this list is bullshit though.
Party theme number seven Scream.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Ah yes, why yeah? How because you're Nev Campbell. Oh
so you go as Nev Camble. Don't just wear like
low rise jeans. I'll wear my little short like blonde
bob wig and I'll be Drew Barrymore.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Yeah, because I feel like there's only one costume for Scream.
You just have a bunch of walking around.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Yeah, yeah, that sounds like a shitty party theme. Man, well, Google,
you fucked it up again. You're this close Google d
minus instead of an F this time because you like
at least head fake. You made a head fake like
you're gonna actually try. Yeah, Dune, dude, this is so funny.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I'm Dune costumes.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
It's probably costumes for like dads who are trying to
find common ground or don't know anything.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
It's like, hey, I'm Dune, may do you get it?
Speaker 3 (13:26):
But just have like the breathing tube in the nose.
It's like, isn't that Grandma's oxygen? You to get that
shipp back to her? And what the fuck is what's
up with your eyes? He's like, I put blue ink
in them?
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Is it cool? I'm like, I don't know. I'd be
worried about chasing the wrong way.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
All right, nice kitty, All right, let's take a quick
break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
And we're back. We're back, We're.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Back, and we'll get a little bit more into the
polar coaster tomorrow. I think we're all anyone with bad
media consumption habits, like myself. You might be freaking out
a little bit about the polls. You know, now Trump's
got a fifty one percent chance of winning instead of
Kamala have fifty one percent last time.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
But the most easily manipulated audience, for sure. Yeah that
is I got a check back. I got a check back.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
I am just holding my hands up in the air
for the next month. But there's been a lot of
two weeks. Also, remember that two weeks.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
There's been a lot of talk.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
In addition to the polls, people are like, actually, the
really good predictive factor is polymarkets, which sounds like an
investment firm for people in open relationships, but is actually
a blockchain based prediction market that utilizes the state coin
USDC for trading. Okay, all right, cool, and that all
(15:06):
made sense to me and went into my brain and
my brain knew what to do with it.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
It's a crypto betting market, but in addition to sports,
you can bet on almost anything. One of the hot
items right now that people are wagering on as whether
or not RFK Junior and Cheryl Hines will divorce by
the end of twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Ah, that's yeah, that's that's an interesting one. Yeah, I can.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
I would first say no because she's already been through
so much shit, but now the stuff where it's like
he wanted to impregnate that journalist, Yeah, some owner shit
like that. I'm like, Cheryl, Yeah, how much can you take?
Divorces take a long time, though. I feel like, you know,
divorced by twenty twenty four yea, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Like, if it's announced that they're splitting, maybe.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
But then the fine print is like no, when the
actual divorce is actually the settlement.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Is happening, Like I feel like there's a lot of.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
I mean, and that would be the problem with a
betting market that is all focused on.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Day to day life is it's like, first of all,
it's messy.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Second of all, it turns everybody into those creepy mask
guy orgies from squig game. Yeah and yeah, So the
obviously the most popular betting market. It involves predicting the
outcome of the twenty twenty four presidential election. And Trump
supporters have been very excited to report that been the
(16:31):
poly markets. With the poly market, pol markets are saying
this thing, Trump is going to win, laughing, He's now
has a sixty four percent chance of winning. Kamala Harris
is a thirty six percent chance of winning.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
Uh huh so And why wouldn't you bet big if
you're probably over leveraged in crypto and hoping that the
Trump administration will bring like a financial boon to you.
And also this is the thing, this just reeks of
like another pole manipulation kind of thing to create the perception.
Just like with the Red Wave, it was a lot
(17:06):
of partisan shit that was getting people like being like
the Red Waves did full the betting market, Yeah, like
that they were like blake masters is a shoe in
and he like having like literally no support. Yeah, it
was actually a red wedding, right, which is what happened.
And I know the wave and a wedding are so
close they start with the same letter.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
But no, no.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
The company literally suggests that you should bet on your beliefs.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
So it's not even saying like fuck is that?
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, which, by the way, what one of them is
whether or not Kamala Harris ever worked at McDonald's.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
They have like a market for that.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
But so Polymarket did hire Nate Silver back in July. Wow,
So they're trying to you know, pull in all the people.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Yeah, I think again, this that that whole thing reeks
of everything else the up is doing to get people
primed to say this was stolen exactly the event that
Donald Trump doesn't win.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Yeah, you have all this stuff.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
For people going to well, look, I mean we had this,
it was in the bag for this thing, right, we
had all the we had all the momentum in this state.
Because they're already doing the thing where if like something
happens in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Where on election Day it's like, oh Trump's.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
Winning and they're like they haven't counted the absentee ballots, asshole.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Right, right, and then and then it swings it the
other way.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
They're like a lot of the people who are like
observing the sort of like fuckery about the election, like
they're priming people again for it's gonna be some absentee
ballot swings to be like this is bullshit, this is stolen.
I just put seventy thousand dollars in the poly market
for this.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Right, fuck yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
I mean so, Trump's position in the market, like the
his percentage chance of winning skyrocketed when Elon Musk started
pointing to Trump's polymarket lead as a more accurate representation
of the race, and it had absolutely nothing tied to
polling or the real world. It was just basically he said,
(19:02):
he's leading the prediction markets and those actually matter. And suddenly,
you know, the people who follow Elon Musk and Donald
Trump started paying attention to the poly markets and it
fucking blew up. It's also backed by Peter Teel. Interestingly,
Peter Teal was heavily involved in Blake. Like Blake Masters
(19:25):
was just like Peter Teel's like errand boy for a
long time, right, and like that's the only reason Blake
Masters was a political candidate was because he was in
with Peter Teel, and Peter Teel decided to like, you know,
just create from whole cloth a political candidate. And he
was performing well in the batting markets and people were like,
(19:47):
I think this kid might do it. And then it
turns out because of things like him being a physical
void of charisma, it did. It didn't go so well
for him in the actual election. Yeah, so I don't know.
Our writer JM is pointing out that like these public
(20:10):
betting markets on elections have existed over much of US history.
They're like technically illegal right now, but these are able
to function because they're like overseas and the interneticut. But
they actually go back to the election of George Washington,
there were like a lot of people gambling on that
and they were originally made illegal because they can actually
(20:32):
sway elections.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
I love that, And I think along with that, there's
this other thing that's the trending story about how people
that were hired by America Pack, which is the pack
that Elon Musk from US. Yeah, that canvassers are using
apps to just avoid door knocking. So right, this one
canvassor was hired by the pack posted a video online
(20:58):
outlining how to use GPS spoofing to make it seem
as if they're doing the work of going out to
turn out the door. Yeah, and like going like house
to house when it's like but the thing is, you
can do this and claim the money, uh, and you
don't have to do a single thing. He also has
tips as to like how to do it like slowly
(21:18):
enough so it doesn't look shady to whoever's like supervising.
This guy is devouring block after blocking matter of minutes, like, oh,
call the Pentagon.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I think I think it's soldier boy.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
But yeah, so I think now this is like a
huge thing that calls into question, like how many people
are they actually reaching if you have people because these
are all paid canvassers. A lot of the time in
a traditional campaign you have volunteers. And I've worked on
campaigns where you pay canvassers or people to gather signatures
a lot of the time. When it's there's it's usually
(21:50):
not tied to like a quota. Yeah, they're just out
there and be like, oh, yeah, I did the work.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
I can only get this much.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Let me have my check now, which makes sense because like,
if you don't believe in it or give a fuck
about it, then what incentive do you have to go
through with it? So I think with this, like a
lot of people are like, yeah, man, they're paying us,
and like, also there, our whole economy is a scam,
So why don't just scam these fucking people too and.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Just say I door knocked. Yeah. But this is the
other thing too.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
We talked about I think on Monday, how America pack
is actually most of the Trump campaigns like ground Game,
the yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
The one that just buys so Facebook ads that are
just screen caps of Elon Musk.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
So he's just throwing money out at people that are
you know, conceived. Not not to say that everyone is
doing that, but potentially there are people just being like, yeah, bro,
I'm just fucking skimming the money off of this ship.
Then it's really hard to know like how how many
people they've actually talked to and what the turnout will be.
