00:06

00:10
the background, welcome back to the need to.
00:17
Welcome back to Me too Daily.
00:19
Happy Friday. I'm Jenny and this is Ale.
00:23
Hi, I'm Gene.
00:38
So we have some we have some technical difficulties.
00:38
sorry, yes.
00:40
Somebody asks who's who's having a baby?
00:43
Who's having a baby?
00:44
No, he's asking if he could bring the baby to the
00:46
party, to the party,
00:48
to the party. I look,
00:49
but like I'm old.
00:51
No, you're not old.
00:52
Stop it. But you are older than me.
00:54
Sorry. I must.
00:57
I'm older than I'm older than everybody on on this set right
01:00
now. Let's be honest.
01:02
You are sorry now I wonder if you're young,
01:04
but you're the youngest,
01:07
you drop your age in the chat.
01:09
I'm a solid 34.
01:12
That's not bad. I'm 32.
01:14
But anyways guys just wanna say thank you so much for joining
01:17
us let's get right into it happy first day of
01:24
summer it's summer solstice.
01:27
Yeah We're gonna be Hopefully a good summer.
01:36
I send a message to the mosquito I'm,
01:37
I'm just being optimistic.
01:38
It's been a I'm ready for Christmas honestly.
01:42
I, I don't know.
01:43
I feel like Christmas usually summer brings me some sort of joy
01:47
not this year,
01:47
maybe Christmas will, but let's let's give it a try.
01:50
It's been, it's been a year.
01:51
It's, it's on site with mosquitoes after today.
01:55
There's one in my room terrorizing me.
01:57
A mosquito flu around.
02:00
And then I turn on the light and he chews.
02:02
I can't find them.
02:03
I hate that motherfucker.
02:05
But anyways, oh fun tip,
02:06
use lavender lotion for mosquitoes.
02:08
It helps a lot.
02:10
They hate lavender, hate it.
02:12
So make sure you put on that lavender lotion anyways,
02:16
so summer, let's talk summer.
02:19
Song of the summer.
02:20
What is it? I mean,
02:21
I don't know. I,
02:22
I like, I'm,
02:23
I was thinking about that the other day.
02:24
I'm like, do we have a song of the summer because
02:26
I remember when Bad Bunny,
02:28
you know, dropped uneros in that was an album of the
02:31
summer like it was on heavy rotation.
02:34
Everyone's cars bumping that,
02:37
everyone's playing that.
02:38
I, but do we even have a song of the summer
02:41
Are we gonna forget about Drake's?
02:43
Nokia, who's my phone,
02:45
bro. Nobody's driving.
02:47
Nobody's, nobody's blowing past me,
02:49
blasting that song. No,
02:50
I don't think it's all over the place.
02:51
I always go by the song that you hear in cars when
02:54
you're outside, you live in Beverly Hills,
02:56
brother, but right,
02:57
when we were in the Y we still didn't even hear anything
03:00
just that song you played like any Dumbo,
03:02
but like there isn't the Dumbo.
03:04
There isn't the summer song.
03:06
What's your? I told you guys earlier ulo concaca like you
03:10
can't go wrong with that as far as like catchiness and like
03:14
it could it's still relevant now like I guess but I feel
03:19
that really quick Daniela's uncle's in the chat.
03:28
Uncle Pipe pesos. His real name is Felipe,
03:31
but we call him Pepe.
03:32
I like that. Sorry,
03:33
I'm telling everyone that business,
03:36
that the lore. So no summer songs.
03:39
Well, what are they?
03:40
OK guys, what do you think is your summer songs well
03:45
it's all good. Ask,
03:47
ask the what what is your?
03:49
What's the song of the summer because they're saying it's not
03:52
it's not Nokia. I was losing hope.
03:54
I was like maybe 2025 is just like bad.
03:58
There's gonna be no summer song.
04:00
There's gonna be just like,
04:02
but Caro G did release her album last night June.
04:05
The first day of summer.
04:08
I've listened to the album 3 times since last night at 9
04:10
p.m. I don't know.
04:12
I feel like there's potential contenders,
04:14
but maybe I'm just too big of a Kyle G fan.
04:16
Have you guys gotten a chance to listen to it?
04:18
Wait, I've, I have a thought maybe just with the
04:21
way shit's going, the song is to be that.
04:26
Oh my gosh, it's a protest song.
04:28
it's like protest anything like Latino really.
04:31
They put that song on there or it was yeah yeah yeah
04:38
I feel like that's I have a theory.
04:40
Maybe people artists are holding on to the songs for next year
04:43
because next year is the World Cup,
04:44
right? No, if I'm an artist,
04:46
I'm holding on to that shit because I want my song.
04:49
To be in the commercials or that's just me.
04:52
I'm releasing what I don't like right now,
04:54
so everything that we're hearing is low key.
04:57
Even your homegirl. I will get into that's new album because
04:58
you think there's potential there,
04:58
right? for song of the summer?
05:04
Yes and no, and you know I'm the biggest Carro Gs
05:06
fan ever. Yes and no.
05:10
OK., sorry,
05:12
what are your thoughts?
05:12
No you're good,.
05:14
I think this is a great album.
05:17
I think it's artistically genius.
05:20
Everything about it is great.
05:22
I just, it's kind of like when Bad Bunny released
05:29
no,
05:29
his album that really didn't do as well as the,
05:36
what's it called?
05:37
Yeah, what's it called?
05:41
Bad Bunny. I know,
05:43
and I love, listen,
05:45
I just think it has some bangers,
05:53
but yeah, you're right.
05:54
How bangers but right as a whole,
05:57
like I'm, I hope Carl G goes on tour again and
06:00
I hope she can because I,
06:02
I hope people like it the way they loved manana Cerrabonito,
06:06
but it's, I miss the Pereo.
06:08
There's, there's not as much,
06:10
and I love the classic.
06:12
Homage to our culture.
06:13
I think that's the beauty of the album,
06:15
and I think we need that right now,
06:18
but it,
06:19
you know, it always takes a while to get used to
06:21
new music. Who knows?
06:22
Maybe I'll like hate myself for saying this right now,
06:24
but I think that's your first impression,
06:27
yeah, you know,
06:27
I think it'll and then the the songs start to grow on
06:30
you once you listen to it more.
06:31
You're like, wait,
06:31
I kind of like this one a little bit more.
06:33
Well, she sampled a lot of old songs and I'm like
06:35
damn it half of the when I first heard the album
06:38
I was like damn,
06:39
that sounds like a song.
06:41
And then I'm on on a mission to find out what she
06:44
sampled. Well, I saw a really cute video of like
06:46
a mom and a daughter being like,
06:47
oh my gosh, we're listening to a song that it's from
06:50
both of our times.
06:53
The nosepocas so it's like that's that's the beauty of it that
06:57
I see in kind of,
06:58
you know, the same realm as Rao Alejandro,
07:00
Bad Bunny Eloel momento,
07:03
so I totally understand it and again we get another Caro G
07:08
song in English so we're starting to see that crossover papacito,
07:12
which I thought would be in Spanish,
07:13
but no, it's an an English song.
07:18
White girls are gonna be saying papaitto now and you know white
07:21
guys are saying mamasita really quick and this is on the slides
07:24
but I was watching Love Island.
07:26
Let's talk about Love Island because what the hell,
07:29
man, that that train wreck.
07:31
I'm gonna, I'm gonna tune in tonight because everybody's chatting about
07:33
it. I know that there's like two Dominican girls on it
07:36
now. I might have to tap in and see what's going
07:38
on, yeah, like I think one of the girl's sisters
07:41
just got like added to the island or I don't know,
07:44
I might be wrong,
07:45
yeah. I'm gonna have to check in it for me though
07:47
no spoilers. Oh,
07:50
you're not caught up.
07:51
I'm not. No,
07:51
I'm on. Oh,
07:52
you just started it.
07:52
Oh yeah, you're right,
07:53
you're right. What's the whole point of this?
07:55
What do you win?
07:55
You got me peacock just because I wanna watch.
07:57
What do you win?
07:58
What's the whole point of the show,
07:59
at least if I remember correctly,
08:00
last season was the first time I tuned in and you.
08:02
Win because they vote for couples to like stay together like
08:07
because they kind of move them around so at the end is
08:10
for how many total I'm like,
08:11
OK, so Jenny and Alejo they get votes on the app
08:15
you know, Gina Daniela and then you guys win if
08:17
you guys say together that's on you.
08:19
Yeah it was a cash prize that's what it was.
08:20
I remember the guy like wasn't with the girl but like he
08:23
gave her the money.
08:23
I forgot what it was but yeah.
08:26
So there's a moment at the end of the show where we
08:29
could win and I could walk away with the money or she
08:31
could walk away with her half or.
08:33
Yeah like could you could you form an alliance at the beginning
08:36
or like before joining the show like we're going in we're locking
08:39
in we're gonna fall in love for the TV and then we're
08:43
gonna we're gonna cash that check like is there.
08:45
A way you could do that or they might find out I
08:49
hope if I ever go on Love Island,
08:50
I never said that.
08:51
I'm there for love.
08:52
Well, I saw something where like last season like oh
08:56
I know her or something.
08:56
I forgot like they kind of knew each other already on one
08:58
of the shows. I've seen TikToks of people being like,
09:01
I just went on a date with a guy and
09:04
like it's been a week and he's on Love Island.
09:07
That's why he left me on red.
09:08
I'm I'm to be on it.
09:09
I need to lose weight.
09:12
Same, I need like to go to Colombia for 3 weeks
09:14
that the one I saw yesterday,
09:16
they had the guy squirking,
09:17
so if you can twerk,
09:18
you're fine. They want the dad bod guy.
09:20
Come on. I mean they switch it up,
09:22
yes, mix it up a little bit I'm excited.
09:24
I'm excited to watch.
09:25
I know I haven't watched it ever and I'm kind of having
09:28
FOMO, so might have to.
09:30
It's just a lot of ups and downs and last night,
09:33
Megan and Sa was on,
09:34
so that was kind of cool,
09:35
yeah, but you know what's not cool?
09:38
We're still on Dodger watch guys and.
09:41
There was rumors that they're gonna say something and hey guys,
09:44
you know, we have something,
09:45
you know, in the works for our community.
09:47
They haven't said anything.
09:49
All they said yesterday was,
09:51
hey, I, you know,
09:52
try to pull up to the to the parking lot,
09:54
and we said no,
09:56
you can't come in.
09:57
There's photos of them turning around,
09:59
but like that's the only statement slash post that's gone out in
10:04
relation to all the ICE raids going on right now in LA
10:07
Aren't proceeds going somewhere to help immigrants or something?
10:11
Is there something like that or is that?
10:12
you know what, let me just refresh their feed because so
10:17
there's stuff from last night's game for for Juneteenth with they
10:21
have let's see Lil Wayne,
10:23
Lizzo, let me refresh the X account final score we lost
10:29
to the Padres 5-3.
10:30
But no announcement about what they want to do to support.
10:34
They put that they put that tweet out.
10:36
Does that count as a statement that doesn't count because then they
10:38
even said, where's the tweet?
10:40
Yeah, where's the tweet here?
10:41
You know I'll just read it because they haven't posted much,
10:44
obviously the slide.,
10:46
this morning ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and they requested permission
10:49
to access the parking lots.
10:51
They were denied entry to the ground by the organization.
10:54
Tonight's game will be played as scheduled,
10:56
yeah, as were the other games when II was still there
10:58
in the area. So I don't know what's the big difference
11:01
now,, with,
11:03
so basically like, hey guys,
11:05
it's safe to come here,
11:06
so come and spend your money I.
11:10
Yeah, that's probably what,
11:11
yeah, I guess I didn't even see it like that.
11:13
Like, yeah, hey guys,
11:13
it's safe come in or like I see here what's,
11:17
but what's your stance like what like I'm confused.
11:22
Look, and then they have footage of the.
11:24
But but that this is so confusing to me.
11:27
Like, are those employees blocking the gates because.
11:32
ICE has been going into neighborhoods time and time again just busting
11:36
doors open or going into Home Depots and like all of a
11:41
sudden they get to the gates of Dodgers Stadium and no you're
11:44
not allowed and they respect it.
11:46
I just don't understand the like the logistics.
11:49
Sticks of how this this works so it's like genuinely I'm asking
11:53
like I'm trying to strategize here can we band together?
11:56
Is there some sort of private security or some sort of
11:59
authority that lets us ban ICE agents from entering a premise because
12:06
I mean I guess.
12:07
My understanding was that they were holding people or maybe they didn't
12:10
go in with any sort of warrant so maybe that's the way
12:13
they they weren't able to enter but I'm I'm genuinely intrigued by
12:19
what the situation actually was the Dodgers say they didn't let ICE
12:23
come in ICE says they never try to go.
12:26
Yeah, there's there's a tweet the Twitter,
12:29
yeah they retweeted that this the tweet from the daughter saying that
12:32
you know, I in the in it said false.
12:34
We were never there but like there's pictures though.
12:37
Who are these people?
12:38
I don't know PR stunt.
12:41
This feels like a whole like conspiracy thing like I don't know
12:44
what's going on. But the daughters regardless,
12:48
haven't posted anything about the situation,
12:50
about you know any resources,
12:51
and they said only a couple of them,
12:53
no, but the Dodgers organization,
12:55
yeah, Kike Hernandez has spoken up,
12:56
but. Even,
12:58
Jaime Harin the other day too.
13:00
I mean he's not,
13:00
he's not with the organization like that anymore,
13:02
but regardless, he's still tied to it,
13:03
right? You think of Jaime,
13:05
you think of the Dodgers as well,
13:07
but so far they haven't said anything and fans are
13:10
just kind of waiting.
13:11
Have the Lakers said anything?
13:12
What's up with all the other teams because AFC has,
13:15
Angel City has,
13:17
I don't know about the Clippers,
13:18
the Lakers, like,
13:20
but the thing, I mean,
13:21
I think people are just specifically hanging on the Dodgers because for
13:24
the longest time ever that LA.
13:26
Community has been so in the Latino LA community has been so
13:29
involved with the organization and like again Fernando Mania came along and
13:32
now I see the history of Chavez ravine as well so yeah
13:36
let's not forget the history of the oh yeah so there's a
13:38
lot more tied to it I feel like the Lakers just recently
13:42
in my eyes were like,
13:43
oh, Latino community,
13:44
like that's like, you know,
13:45
even the LA Kings there's something for Latino night,
13:47
but it's like the Dodgers have way more of a history here
13:51
with Latinos, I think,
13:52
and that's why people are like,
13:53
yeah, LA teams,
13:54
but like. las buenas in las malas I mean they're
14:00
silence and then they don't celebrate.
14:02
I wanna talk about that.
14:03
It's been 2 weeks.
14:04
It's been 2 weeks since the situation has started on a random
14:07
Friday in Santee Alley,
14:09
and, and, and it's been 2 weeks of silence from
14:12
the Dodgers at this point they've got guns blazing left and right
14:15
Why aren't you saying anything at this point when they do
14:18
say something or when they do do something if they're going to
14:23
I don't know,
14:24
I as a fan or I was like a diehard fan who
14:27
is severely affected by what's going on right now.
14:29
I would still feel like,
14:31
OK, you guys took 2 weeks,
14:33
you guys took too long.
14:35
I know it's always the argument like you're never gonna do.
14:39
Something that's gonna please all I feel like this is just hurting
14:44
them and hurting them and hurting them and they're gonna feel like
14:46
a damn ass like just fucking shut up.
14:49
Like that's what it's gonna feel like or I don't know I
14:52
feel like some players would just be like I'm not waiting no
14:54
more. And just get in trouble like players have any players
14:58
come out? Yeah,
14:59
just holding back, holding back,
15:00
and I was like somebody wants somebody's gotta be like he could
15:03
say something but it's like why did why was he OK to
15:05
like kind of jump the gun and post his own stance on
15:08
it? meanwhile, nobody else is is that they're sponsored as
15:11
well all the brand deals and you know what they they talk
15:14
about that, right?
15:15
Like you also never know what a player on the team's documentation
15:18
status is. You cannot assume that.
15:21
I mean we know.
15:22
This is a country and a city that is full of undocumented
15:26
immigrants and we are they are at risk right now so when
15:30
someone doesn't say something you can't always assume the worst.
15:33
You have to be open to the endless,
15:34
you know, possibilities of their current status the Dodgers as
15:38
an organization though they aren't a US citizen or not they're in
15:42
an organization and they have the ability to say something or not
15:45
so that's on them.
15:46
I mean, but hey,
15:47
this, this will be the last thing I say before I
15:49
move on. But part of the ownership just actually bought part
15:52
of the Lakers, so they're moving.
15:53
They're doing business as usual,
15:55
but so I don't know what they're cooking up.
15:58
They're gonna say something,
15:59
perosae maybe over the weekend unless it gets delayed again because like
16:03
oh, we're gonna say something yesterday,
16:04
but because of the whole ice thing we're not gonna say anything
16:06
anymore. It's like we're gonna push it back.
16:07
It's like just fucking say it.
16:10
But what if things keep happening like they are.
16:13
There's never gonna be a perfect time.
16:16
All over the fucking city right now as we speak right now
16:19
in Hollywood. It was like I don't know somebody put in
16:23
the chat. They were somewhere today.
16:24
They're everywhere, so listen,
16:27
Dodgers, don't get into it because it's political,
16:30
sure, but at this point it's personal.
16:33
It's personal and it's affecting a lot of your fans,
16:36
so do without what you will or don't because we will.
16:40
Alright, Gene, well,

16:43
Oh man, bro,
16:45

16:46

16:49
UCLA student went viral.
16:51
My guy took it to the next level and you know how
16:54
you are when you graduate and you're happy,
16:55
you kinda give shout outs to everybody that was there for you
16:59

16:59
yo, thank you for holding me down.
17:01
Well, this kid,
17:03
yeah, Chad GPT held this kid down and my guy took
17:07
the chance and gave it a shout out.
17:10
That I would have not given it,
17:12
but I think, yeah,
17:13
there you go. Look at my,
17:13
look at my guy on the jumbotron.
17:17
I didn't even know you could bring a laptop on to the
17:19
ceremony. You snuck it in,
17:20
yep, yep, look at all that.
17:21
Look at all the slides cooking.
17:24
I hope he wants to work with Open AI because this video
17:27
went viral. That's the only place he's gonna.
17:29
Not only that, imagine his teacher that's that's watching him that
17:32
gave him the B or A.
17:33
That's what I was wondering,
17:34
this man's back because people.
17:35
Are gonna be like yo like what's going on?
17:39
Well that's a tool that everyone uses now let's be real the
17:42
tool yeah you're right yeah.
17:43
Listen, if I had this tool I would not be here
17:45
right now when I was in school I would be in NASA
17:48
or fucking somewhere super important.
17:51
I I went to the very good university and during my time
17:55
there was when Chot GBT started and it it started becoming Cho
17:58
GBT university and that's.
18:02
I will tell you I would like we were in class asking
18:05
Chat like hey what is the cardiovascular you know like why was
18:11
I it it it became a tool and it became normalized pretty
18:15
early on,.
18:16
It's kind of like if you think about it I guess we
18:18
we put it that way like the calculator,
18:20
right? I remember in like geometry and like algebra like hey
18:23
so we're gonna get these calculators,
18:24
scientific calculators yellow ones to check.
18:26
Your work, we still do your work like I mean that's
18:29
all well for us it was the,
18:30
the back of the textbooks the answers,
18:33
but only had the odd ones.
18:35
They only had the odd ones.
18:39
I'm that old that some textbooks had the key.
18:41
It was like the key in the back,
18:42
but it would only,
18:43
it would only give you certain,
18:45
it would only give you certain answers.
18:46
It would be like all odd and then the teacher for the
18:49
homework would give you the even ones.
18:51
I'm like you. This is at Cliff Notes,
18:53
remember that? Yeah,
18:54
you remember Cliff Notes of course Sparks,
18:57
you know Sparks? Oh shit.
18:58
He actually got put on possible probation and they're investigating his thesis
19:09
Oh damn idiot.
19:09
I'm like. It's a tool like be discreet,
19:12
but the thing was like yo,
19:13
yeah, you could have made that movie after you walked down
19:16
and you got the diploma,
19:17
but like nah, you put it on the jumbotronunziota at this
19:21
point it's the unspoken like elephant in the room.
19:25
Right? I mean you're not supposed to use it but everyone
19:27
you know uses it my guy you really went full blast like
19:32
it went viral it went very,
19:33
very viral like people in different countries know you graduated because of
19:37
chat, not to say others didn't you just made it known
19:41
Imagine his teachers how they feel like oh my god this
19:43
guy asked for an extension.
19:45
And all that on the final I gave it to him.
19:48
He told me his grandma died and I was now this guy
19:51

20:33
did that UCLA degree,
20:35
that means a lot.
