Hello, good morning my little love bunnies. Happy Wednesday, here we are. I have three lighthearted stories for you. Hopefully they're lighthearted. All right, here we go.
Speaker 1:You remember Tiffany Gomez? She was the crazy plane lady who went viral after not real rant on flight and she launches a new career. I wonder what it is? Probably only fans. No, I'm just kidding, let's see. I don't need. I haven't even read it. All I read was the headline uh, the crazy plane lady is now the safe for work lady. Okay, tiffany gomez, whose notoriety took flight after she had a caught on camera meltdown on a plane in 2023, is getting a new career off the ground.
Speaker 1:The 40 year old marketing executive, an entrepreneurial trailblazer who's that, motherfucker? Is not real rant on an american airlines flight went viral two years ago is now going to be a con. Oh, a content creator for passes. I don't even know what that is. She had met, okay, sorry, oh no. She had been rumored to join only fans, which features adult content, but passes forbids explicit material. According to the outlet I don't even know if I'm pronouncing this correctly it is spelled just like passes p-a-s-s-e-s. Never heard of it. She promises unfiltered, unexpected and unapologetic material from her life. Unapologetic, okay, what in the world does that even mean? Gomez will share a behind the scenes looks of my chaos work workouts, pups, sports shoes and fits. What a fits me, according to her bio on passes. We're gonna have to look at passes. Is it like an? Only fans? I don't know, but it's passes says it does not allow explicit material, which is good. She encourages potential clients to direct message her, since that's where all the magic happens, oh dear. Before cheekily ending with a nod to her now famous tirade thanks for flying with me. She wrote with a lips emoji this woman, I swear it will cost 9.99 a month to fly with gomez, the cheapest of several tiers she has on the site, which allows you access to her wall and earn discounts on her merch.
Speaker 1:Gomez made national headlines when she held up her fellow. We know about how she made the headlines. Okay, she remained in the spotlight since, appearing on podcasts, youtube shows, giving tours of her sleek Texas home. This poor gal is trying to milk that 15 minutes of fame. Texas home, this poor gal's prompt. She's trying to milk that 15 minutes of fame.
Speaker 1:In the months after the incident, she dispelled rumors that the episode was prompted by something supernatural and otherworldly. She said I literally did not see anything. It was an expression of speech. The real reason was too cringe to initially admit to, she said. The reason I probably haven't come out yet is that it's too cringe. Gomez said she got into a little bit of an altercation with another passenger and that it spiraled out of control. Of course, we all know that by now. So if you want to go see the behind the scenes of this, tiffany Gomez, you can go join passes and pay $9.99 a month to have access to whatever I don't know. Okay, moving on, I wish her well good luck, but there will be people that will do it all right.
Speaker 1:So the next, the next story ozempic users are hooked on this popular drink, which was just ranked the unhealthiest bottled beverage in the US. Right now I have a question for Mr Shons. This Ozempic that people are taking not for diabetic use, because Ozempic was made for diabetics, but I'm not the question is not about them. The question is about the people who use it for weight loss period that don't even have diabetes. Are they going to have to take this shot for the rest of their lives? Or do you take it, lose weight and then you stop taking it, and if that's the case, these people are just going to gain the weight right back. Tell me, is that correct or not? But anyway, moving on with this article, it looks like it's going to be Core Power, this drink, that's so.
Speaker 1:Core Power Protein Shakes, a favorite of the gym rats and ozempic junkies, just got slammed as America's worst bottled drink. Wow, I used to drink this not all the time, I would have one occasionally or something similar to it and I stopped drinking them too because it made me bloated, it made me swell up with my joints, and it's just not good. So, oh, it's fair lives too. Oh, my god, it's fair life. I thought fair life was a good, was a good company. Fair life's gore.
Speaker 1:Core power protein shakes, beloved by I already read all that has just been crowned the unhealthiest bottle beverage in america, despite their muscle boosting reputation, according to eat this. Not that shakes like these are a great way to start the day without having to sit down and have a full breakfast. Gushed elise ramer, a 42 year old PR pro in Florida, previously reported on the post. Raymer says she puts core power in her coffee. I can see that while taking the weight loss drug Mongero. Since users need to focus on their protein intake due to the possible muscle loss side effect. So Zympic's making you lose muscle too, not just fat. But nutrition experts are throwing a red flag on the plate. Good, I put these first as the unhealthiest bottle drink in the US, because they are so highly marketed as a great source of protein and healthy food when in reality they are a disaster to your metabolic health. She's a registered dietitian. Mary Sabat recently told Eat this, not that.
Speaker 1:Core Power Protein shakes may seem like a convenient post-workout drink, but a closer look at the ingredients reveals several health concerns. Yes, always look at the ingredients. That's what I've had to start doing. That's what you know. When I started trying to lose weight and get healthy, I started reading. I especially read the ingredients on these products that are claiming to be healthy because they're not all this sugar-free crap. No, those are probably the worst, are probably the worst.
Speaker 1:The shakes are made by fair life, owned by coca-cola. Oh, I did not know that. Wow, see, I always thought fair life was a healthy. See that I get fooled. I get fooled just like everybody else. Fair life was, oh, I need to stop. Okay, so the shakes are made by fair life owned by coca-cola, which is not a good company and boasts up to 42 grams of protein per bottle.
Speaker 1:But that muscle comes with a side controversy. According to Sabat, it's not just about sugar. Well, okay, they use non-organic, conventional dairy, which often comes from cows fed GMO corn and soy and may contain residues of hormones and antibiotics, unlike grass-fed dairy which is higher within omega-3s and CLA and free from harmful residues. Oh, the addition of carrageenan I can't read my contacts is messing up, sorry a thickening agent linked to gut inflammation and irritation further detracts from its healthy profile. Ta-da, there it is. That's why I quit drinking it a while ago. I stopped drinking them a while ago, thank goodness. Okay.
Speaker 1:Moving on, this california dad, police called on him after neighbor mistakes him for homeless man stealing a baby. He says I need to work on my appearance. Yeah, you do, mister, because you do look like a homeless. You look like a homeless lady. Which what you look like with your messed up man bun? There a tired california dad out of out on a routine walk with his newborn baby had the police called on him by a concerned neighbor who feared he had kidnapped the child. Well, good for her. I guess for good on the neighbor for calling him chapman. This is hilarious, I'm sorry it is chapman.
Speaker 1:Hamburg, 33, was walking around his neighborhood in huntington beach with his daughter, florence, in a baby wrap carrier on April 22nd, as he had done multiple times before, to give his wife a little break according. Well, that's nice. Hamburg didn't bother changing out of his baggy brown Patagonia jacket, stained jeans or tattered slippers when he embarked on his brief walk in the residential area. They have a picture of him and, god bless, he does look pretty ragged. His shaggy looking appearance um led a lady to mistake him for a homeless man and call the cops. He said I am surprised all of my neighbors haven't seen me and recognize me by now. He wrote. Authorities later arrived at hamburger's home and questioned him over his daily walk were you going for a walk? Is this baby or something? Your neighbor saw you and thought you were homeless. He said no, not homeless, just a tired dad. Oh bless, that's hilarious. I'm sorry but it is. It's funny.
Speaker 1:All right, we need to move on to the question of the day. All right, I have a question do you still have cable or do you use all the streaming services? I'm trying to talk the gent into getting rid of our cable. But then I think, well, you know, what would we? What? How would? Because we certain channels we like to watch, but apparently you can watch everything on youtube now, but of course, a paid subscription. But you know, we got to have our fox news, I know, I know, but we have to. And then we like our cooking channels, food network and all that, um so, and of course, sports my god, we got to have the football during the fall.
Speaker 1:So what if you don't have cable? What do you use to watch all of that? If you, what? I mean, we're still old-fashioned. Maybe I should get the kids over to show us what to do to or in order to get all that. But then again I think, well, god, if you have to have youtube, then you gotta have hbo max, then you're gonna have netflix and there's all these different streaming services you pay for. It's gonna total up to be what the cable bill is anyway, and I don't know, we're old set in our ways. What do you think? What is your? What are your viewing options when you watch tv? If you watch tv, all right, gotta go love y'all. Thanks for listening. Bye.
