I'm going brother. Well,
00:37

00:41
and now let's get into the news.
00:43
The FTC has finalized a new click to cancel rule.
00:46
That's about to disrupt hella business.
00:48
Like think of like gym memberships and stuff.
00:50
The new rule will require retailers,
00:53
gyms and other businesses to make canceling subscriptions as easy as enrolling
00:59
in them and to make the subscription process more transparent.
01:02
That's what I'm saying,
01:03
bro. I feel like these gyms gonna be punching the air
01:05
like they're like, no,
01:08
our evil plan like wow,
01:09
brother, nobody told him to have like an 83 step process
01:13
to cancel memberships. Like,
01:14
come on now and they did it to themselves.
01:17
Exactly. Like, I bet you,
01:19
like, you know,
01:19
like canceling your gym membership is worse than,
01:22
like, trying to get a home loan.
01:23
Like you, like,
01:24
you know what? Just keep my money.
01:25
Like, I don't even want to go through all this paperwork
01:27
and call like this.
01:28
It's fine. I'll pay my $30 and let it go to
01:31
waste. Exactly. Some places make it really hard to cancel
01:35
Like I don't know if that's ever happened to you where
01:37
you're on hold for so long,
01:39
you're like, I'm just trying to cancel.
01:41
Like what the heck,
01:43
I guess so, you know,
01:45
a lot of cars are the satellite radio,
01:47
I'm gonna say the brand but you know,
01:49
you call like look so the car is like,
01:52
hey, so you got a trial?
01:53
Cool. This is kind of awesome,
01:55
you know, crystal clear audio and then when it's over you
01:59
have a call to cancel and you call and you finally get
02:02
somebody and like, hey,
02:03
so no, but like we'll,
02:04
we'll knock it down at half price.
02:05
No, I'm good.
02:06
How about like 80% off?
02:07
No, I'm good.
02:08
How about 90% off?
02:09
No, I'm good.
02:09
It's like, well that's all I can do.
02:11
I'm like, yeah,
02:12
just freaking cancel it.
02:13
Are you serious? Get it?
02:17
This I yeah,
02:20
I am serious. That is what happens and I'm like,
02:24
that's And ever since then I always tell my homies just do
02:26
the trial. They can give you a card.
02:28
But no, yeah,
02:30
I don't know. Those free trials just get you brother.
02:33
You know what free trials that require a credit card.
02:36
That's not free, bro.
02:37
They charge you one cent to verify that.
02:40
I don't know. Yeah.
02:41
But what I wonder is ok,
02:43
you have to put the click to cancel button somewhere.
02:45
But where are they going to put it?
02:47
You know. That's true.
02:49
That is true. They might make it a little difficult.
02:52
A little, they're going,
02:53
you know how they be sneaky,
02:55
sneaky, sneaky. Nice.
02:59
Try Drake. We know what you're up to.
03:02
But brother, I'm kind of excited.
03:04
I'm not gonna lie.
03:05
Me too a little bit.
03:06
But so for those who don't know,
03:08
Drake is releasing a collab with Chino Paca and Puza Rega.
03:12
Look, the song sounds good.
03:14
But people be calling Drake a culture vulture.
03:17
So you think they're going to be OK with this one or
03:19
they're going to be,
03:19
I mean, I like that.
03:21
He's collab with artists around the world and Fuerza and Chinito are
03:25
proving that they are superstars,
03:27
brother. They've been like in the game and we should celebrate
03:31
them for making it to this level.
03:33
Like I think it's pretty dope.
03:34
Like I don't think it's a culture vulture.
03:36
I honestly feel like there's the old snoop,
03:39
you know, who embraces the culture and then there's Primo Drake
03:43
who embraces the culture too.
03:45
Primo Drake is, is like us because,
03:48
no, no, no.
03:49
Let me go back a little bit because all of a sudden
03:51
like before, like,
03:52
oh, they're not like us,
03:53
they're not like us.
03:54
They, they not like us.
03:56
Ok. Well, the whole movement,
03:57
right? A bunch of people,
03:59
like they're on the Drake a train.
04:01
So he'll be ok with this one,
04:03
you think? Well,
04:03
I think so. Yeah,
04:05
I mean, remember when he collabed with bad bunny,
04:07
he collabed with him like a couple of times with Mia and
04:10
I'm sorry, but he speaks Spanish good that I think Drake
04:14
like, yeah, I can't imagine like these Canadian Corridos,
04:17
bro. Canadian Corrido.
04:20
I mean, like we'll see,
04:21
I mean, it'll be interesting,
04:23
I'm sure regardless with those three names in the mix it's gonna
04:25
be a top like a hit.
04:27
Well, you know what a lot of these rappers,
04:29
brother, they're getting into a corrido game.
04:31
Like you seen, I mean,
04:33
there's Snoop, I,
04:34
I saw Ta Dollar sign to Tambien.
04:38
Travis Scott was playing Peso Pluma and Drake.
04:43
No. Yeah, I think,
04:47
but anyway, I don't know.
04:49
But I'm just saying like they're,
04:50
they're on it, you know,
04:51
they're on it and they want to be in the mix just
04:54
like we want to be in the mix too with,
04:56
with their music too.
04:56
So it's like, it's,
04:58
it's like this, I can shake your hand if you want
05:02
There you go. Hey sister,
05:05
try these Fritos. OK.
05:10
See sister too much air but the jig is up and hopefully
05:15
these companies learn that shrink inflation will get your ass canceled.
05:18
Sorry, I just need you to,
05:19
you know, show the example for the people here because Pepsico
05:23
the owner of Lay's Doritos Fritos Tostitos announce plans to
05:29
increase the amount of chips in some bags.
05:32
Tostitos will be containing 20% more chips and supposedly they're going to
05:36
throw two or more bags of like Doritos into those multi packs
05:39
You know that you don't get like 30 bags of ruffles
05:43
and like only two of dost why they did that.
05:46
I mean, yeah,
05:48
yeah, but still,
05:50
I mean it was only a matter of time,
05:51
brother like it got so bad.
05:53
I stopped eating chips around people because how can I share five
05:56
chips? Your big b is showing your big bag is showing
06:01
I'm just saying,
06:02
you know, you could share but no chips are getting expensive
06:04
though. They are.
06:06
And then again, all this air.
06:08
Yeah, that's too much Air brother.
06:09
The one thing that I'm curious about is because they said they're
06:12
specifically going to add some more to that multi pack.
06:15
But I feel like FRITO Lay should add more chips across the
06:17
board. I agree.
06:19
It's only so far.
06:21
It sounds like, yeah,
06:22
who likes Fritos? I'm sorry.
06:24
You know, I feel like Seor is like this like dad
06:26
my dad loves these and the mole chile.
06:29
Yeah, he likes the chili cheese ones.
06:31
Those are they kind of like those a little bit.
06:35
No. Yeah,
06:35
I just feel like this is about,
06:37
you know, this is overdue because the bags are getting more
06:40
puffy, more full of air and the chips are going up
06:45
in price too. This is true.
06:47
Former one direction singer Liam Payne was found dead after falling from
06:52
a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires at Genina.
06:55
Reports suggest that his hotel room showed signs of drugs and alcohol
06:59
and police are now searching for his dealer Payne had previously struggled
07:03
with alcohol addiction throughout his career,
07:07
going to rehab at least twice.
07:09
And speaking about feeling suicidal in the past.
07:13
This is sad news.
07:14
I know there's so many primas who went to those shows back
07:19
in the day. You know,
07:20
I did, I'm sad.
07:22
This is like my cousin and I,
07:26
we grew up loving one direction and my first concert was one
07:30
direction and I know we all like so many of my friends
07:34
and I like we,
07:36
we grew up kind of just like this.
07:38
This was our boy band that was like your Backstreet boys.
07:43
Well, I knew was Backstreet Boys that didn't sync direction was
07:46
like, I would definitely say one direction was was our boy
07:50
band and it's really,
07:51
really sad. And then,
07:53
you know, they're big in Latin America,
07:57
Argentina. Everyone was so sad and so shocked.
08:02
I know there were rumors there was going to be like a
08:06
reunion coming or in the works.
08:09
So that's really sad.
08:11
Like, that's not gonna happen anymore,
08:14
honestly. Like, I guess they were coworkers,
08:17
but I'm sure that after being in a boy band for so
08:19
long, like you form some sort of attachment relationship,
08:22
I can only imagine.
08:23
Oh, for sure,
08:23
definitely. You're like touring with them and,
08:26
and you guys are having all these memories together,
08:29
you know, and people that literally just met him once were
08:32
impacted, like have been,
08:34
are impacted with, you know,
08:35
and people that haven't even met him,
08:38
it was so sad.
08:39
He was so young,
08:40
31 years old age.
08:42
That is so, and it's just a reminder to keep checking
08:46
in on your friends.
08:47
Definitely. If you see something,
08:50
say something. He had a son too.
08:53
He had a seven year old son.
08:54
Well, he has a seven year old son and it's like
08:57
he has so much family,
08:58
he has friends, he has fans,
09:02
a lot of people he left behind.
09:06
Yeah. Well, we our deepest condolences to the family and
09:09
friends and all the fans and just everyone affected by his passing
09:18
All right, today we are taking you on a trip
09:22
back in time. Oh,
09:23
I love checks a time when people feared their computers would self
09:28
destruct at midnight Y2K.
09:32
It was the era of prime technology,
09:35
Y2K technology. Do you mean like the aesthetic y2k?
09:41
Was wild girl. How have you never heard of it?
09:45
This year was 1999.
09:48
Everyone thought their computers would crash and planes would fall from the
09:52
sky but spoiler alert,
09:55
it didn't. Oh my gosh.
09:58
I mean, this literally sounds like the OG version of the
10:02
apocalypse and conspiracy theories like planes falling out of the sky.
10:06
That's crazy. Basically,
10:08
my biggest fear every time we go up,
10:11
but aside from all the paranoia,
10:14
it was a pretty lit time before social media before social media
10:20
So we're going to have to put you on some of
10:21
the trends, trends in technology from the era.
10:25
Ok. I mean,
10:26
I'm down to learn.
10:28
That's cool. All right.
10:30
Let's go back in time.
10:31
Well, before we do this,
10:32
we have to upgrade your fashion game.
10:35
Oh, really? I feel like I'm kind of good right
10:38
now. I got you.
10:40
Boom. Oh, fela,
10:45
you know, in middle school the fela,
10:47
white chunky sneakers were really trendy,
10:49
but that lasted a year and eight months and at that point
10:52
we had to throw them out.
10:53
It was done and we moved on to,
10:55
yeah, I know,
10:56
I know that both came back.
10:58
Yeah. Ok. Well,
10:59
I guess I should go change and look appropriate because we are
11:04
going back to the Y2K.
11:05
Well, all we have to do is just snap our fingers
11:08
Oh, ah,
11:14
if you wore this jacket you was on the scene.
11:17
No, because I get it like,
11:19
I'm feeling myself. I feel comfy.
11:21
I feel cute. I feel.
11:24
Yes, you feel,
11:25
yes, that's it.
11:26
Now, you've got the look.
11:28
Let's talk about some of the Y2K tech,
11:32
shall we? Ok.
11:33
We've got a laptop that's a laptop.
11:36
She's really thick. I feel she thick.
11:39
Look at that yo,
11:41
open that there's a button.
11:46
It's not like the ones we have.
11:48
Now, we just pop it open there a little but look
11:52
at that. It's so look at the keys.
11:54
You know what I love about this?
11:57
All the little Clicky clack because growing up all I wanted to
12:00
do was the nails and like that's it.
12:04
So I really like this.
12:05
I like OK, it started on,
12:10
you're starting, wait,
12:12
that sounds, that's so you've got a laptop with a CD
12:16
burner. Why is it burning?
12:19
You could burn an entire CD in like 30 minutes and burning
12:26
in case you're not familiar with you?
12:28
Why would you a CD?
12:30
Burning is when you put songs onto a CD,
12:34
you know, kind of like you put songs in your playlist
12:38
Why would you want to?
12:40
OK. This is before the streaming my friend.
12:43
Oh OK. So you would need to burn music onto a
12:48
CD. This is making a lot of,
12:50
it's making a lot of noise.
12:51
I feel the air to come out of it.
12:53
It's working hard. Let's move on.
12:55
OK. What's next?
13:00
And if you wanted to take that playlist on the road boom
13:05
Do you know what this is?
13:08
It is not an iphone,
13:09
my friend. It looks like a little remote but it's an
13:12
ipod. I see that in the back.
13:13
Can I investigate this?
13:16
This little beauty could hold 64 megabytes of music.
13:21
That's over an hour of songs.
13:23
Wait, only an hour.
13:24
I literally have like my shortest playlist is probably two hours.
13:28
But this is cool.
13:29
I mean, for showering maybe.
13:35
So there's the ipod.
13:36
It's very cute. It's very,
13:38
and then there's this little beauty.
13:40
So it's an MP3 player.
13:42
So it can hold 64 megabytes of music.
13:46
That's over an hour of songs.
13:48
Oh, a little more options here.
13:51
I can't tell which one I like more.
13:53
But how does this?
13:54
We got a CD,
13:55
you know? 00 Selena.
13:59
I would have had this CD.
14:00
It's a classic but now no Y2k trip would be complete without
14:06
hitting the club. So we've got two classic Y2K drinks for
14:13
you. First up,
14:15
we have the Hypno seven serve up,
14:18
please. I need to try this.
14:21
Oh, the color is cute.
14:22
So let me tell you what it has inside.
14:24
I'm intrigued. So this is hypnotic,
14:28
hypnotic and it was,
14:29
it's an essential part to house parties.
14:33
Honestly. It's a great accessory.
14:35
Like I would pull up to a party and have this.
14:38
Oh, definitely. So hypnotic and 7-Up.
14:41
So that's it. Well,
14:42
I, I can,
14:43
we just try it.
14:44
Let's try it. Ok.
14:51
Oh This is delicious.
14:53
Oh, this is good.
14:55
Wow. I see it.
14:57
Now I get why everyone's like,
14:59
I wish we could go back.
15:00
What was your favorite club song from Beckton?
15:04
Waiting for tonight? Who?
15:07
I know that one?
15:08
That's a good one.
15:13
I'm, I'm starting to Oh yeah,
15:15
I, I'm starting to feel happy.
15:16
I'm starting to feel like nothing in.
15:19
It's not, it's not.
15:20
We got a good pace going.
15:21
So why not continue?
15:23
So next, next we have the blue Bubbler br bring it
15:28
up, please. Boom.
15:31
Champagne. That's right.
15:33
And hypnotic. If you had this,
15:35
it's a party. How can a drink be good with,
15:38
with all these different,
15:39
all these different and good hypnotics got the range.
15:41
It's just that it's got the range that it's got the range
15:46
Boy, that boy the bubbles.
15:52
Oh my gosh. Imagine like a hypnotic brunch like mimosas but
15:56
it's hypnotic girl. Ok.
15:58
Sal sal hm. What do you think?
16:05
Very good? I can't pinpoint what the flavor is but it's
16:12
good. It's like a fruit punch.
16:15
Mimosa. I was gonna say it still has that fruity flavor
16:18
like mimosa would. So it's actually like I wouldn't mind drinking
16:21
this for brunch. So we're going from the Blue Bubbler to
16:27
the Blue Breeze. Oh I love these names.
16:31
They're fun. This Yeah,
16:33
this glass is really cute.
16:35
Sal sal. Let's try this.
16:38
Let's do it. Mm mm.
16:42
Oh coconut but I think I got both.
16:46
Now did you mentioned it.
16:47
What does this have inside it?
16:48
I don't know, but it's really good.
16:50
It's really good. And the cup is making it even better
16:52
I feel like I'm on vacation right now.
16:54
That's the vibe. I kind of feel like I'm in a
16:56
music video in like 2001.
16:59
Exactly. Now you're getting it.
17:02
This was life at the turn of the century before Tik Tok
17:05
before Instagram, before the cloud.
17:09
I get it now.
17:10
Like I feel like everyone who's a little bit older than me
17:13
kind of is always like I miss these days.
17:16
Everything used to be so good.
17:18
And I'm always like,
17:18
well, I don't know what you're talking,
17:20
talking about, but now I do,
17:22
you're Y2K Certified now.
17:24
Really? Well, hypnotic and I were Y2K certified and hypnotic
17:30
is still standing, I'm still standing strong.
17:33
We're going strong like this street and I don't,
17:36
I don't think we're going anywhere.
17:37
We're, we're here to stay.
17:39
I'm gonna bring her to the club.
17:41
Yep. The clerk to the good old days.
17:43
Salo.
