Speaker 2: So mister Steve Harvey one of mine in Sandy's most
Speaker 2: favorite people, most inspirational people, nicest guys in my time of.
Speaker 1: My darkest needs, mister Steve Harvey was there.
Speaker 3: Now you mean it weird, but okay, all right.
Speaker 2: Mister Steve Harvey appears to be the latest victim of
Speaker 2: artificial intelligence. And I did not find out this about
Speaker 2: this until after the fact, and I freaked out for
Speaker 2: a second. He's sixty seven years old. He was the
Speaker 2: target of a recent death hoax that was allegedly the
Speaker 2: result of an AI error, an AI report error. Chaos
Speaker 2: erupted online when an article titled Steve Harvey passed Away Today,
Speaker 2: remembering the Legacy of a comedy legend was published on
Speaker 2: trend cast News.
Speaker 1: Never heard of him?
Speaker 2: I never heard of him either. Turns out it was
Speaker 2: a total error on a ice part. It was like
Speaker 2: future dated to be published, had it be published, hadn't
Speaker 2: been published yet Normally these aioax's death hoaxes are the result.
Speaker 3: Of people being crappy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but apparently this was completely computer generated air fake news.
Speaker 2: I don't know how it happened. The Post reached out
Speaker 2: to Harvey's reps for comment. He made no comment. But
Speaker 2: the beloved TV star is absolutely fine.
Speaker 1: You just read that off somewhere. You never say beloved.
Speaker 3: No I do about mister Steve Harvey.
Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing. So you know, Cat Williams is.
Speaker 3: Right, Yes, I love him.
Speaker 1: Okay, now I did too, I did too. I love
Speaker 1: Kat Williams. Think he's very very funny, very talented, very
Speaker 1: very smart. But my man started bagging on Steve Harvey
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh what Because he says that
Speaker 1: his whole story about living in a car and being
Speaker 1: homeless and all that, he says blowney, so it's not true.
Speaker 1: He also says that he talks about how Steve Harvey
Speaker 1: says that he gives all the credit the world a
Speaker 1: man that he is today to his wife. Well he
Speaker 1: said that about his first wife too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what.
Speaker 1: Kat Williams said. I'm like, no, Kat, and I'd like
Speaker 1: gig cap, but don't mess with Steve.
Speaker 3: I know, don't do that.
Speaker 2: Also, here's the thing, like, you know Steve Harvey's talk show,
Speaker 2: I think he still has it. He's very often talked
Speaker 2: about a man and a woman who owned a furniture store,
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, who when he was homeless. They let him
Speaker 2: stay there while he was trying to get his carpet
Speaker 2: cleaning business up and running. And then one day while
Speaker 2: they were filming his talk show, the staff surprised him
Speaker 2: with the man and the woman there in the studio,
Speaker 2: and Steve Harvey cried, like a baby, you.
Speaker 3: Can't fake he can't fake that.
Speaker 1: Right right. Those people gave him a big line of credit. Right,
Speaker 1: it's a travel they had a travel agency, remember, and
Speaker 1: they put him in business.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't. I don't know. Kat Williams.
Speaker 2: He also but let's just say this, Kat Williams, I
Speaker 2: think was calling out did he years before anybody else
Speaker 2: was he was. I'm not saying I believe the mistress
Speaker 2: Harvey stuff, right, but I feel like Kat Williams, you
Speaker 2: don't Williams pretty right.
Speaker 1: Exactly, pretty darn fearless that guy. If you ever heard
Speaker 1: like what kind of childhood he had, it was not
Speaker 1: much and all he did was read religious and read
Speaker 1: for eight hours a day.
Speaker 3: Yeah? Did? He was ever in prison?
Speaker 1: Don't believe so?
Speaker 3: No, Okay, I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know anyway. I didn't know
Speaker 1: about kat Williams until I saw him on the internet.
Speaker 3: You know, Yeah, I know, I didn't either. But he's hilarious.
Speaker 1: He's very funny.
Speaker 3: He's hilarious.
Speaker 1: That's the story we love. What's your name?
Speaker 3: My name's Trisha.
Speaker 1: I'm Sandy. Thanks for being with us. More coming up
Speaker 1: the stories we love.
Speaker 3: So everything in fashion cyclical. What goes around comes around, right.
Speaker 2: Something jumping into the fashion trend right now that I
Speaker 2: have never seen before, And God, I hope this is
Speaker 2: not something that actually sticks ladies and gentlemen. The new
Speaker 2: fashion trend is called your Plumber's crack.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 2: In Milan for fashion Week, one of the label's Diesel,
Speaker 2: debuted its latest collection, and it had extremely low cut jeans. Now,
Speaker 2: these were not low cut jeans to show off your thong,
Speaker 2: which that was the thing for a while. That was
Speaker 2: kind of a thing. I mean, it was a little trashy.
Speaker 2: I think that's why you think it's hot, right. No, no, no,
Speaker 2: these models were wearing the super super low cut jeans
Speaker 2: SnO panties on it all, so basically you're looking at
Speaker 2: their butt crack. So that was at Milan Fashion Week,
Speaker 2: then at the Oscars on Sunday night. One of the
Speaker 2: actresses and right now, of course, I cannot think of
Speaker 2: her name. She said it Channing Tatum, and she's Link
Speaker 2: Gravitre's daughter, Lenny Kravitz's.
Speaker 3: Daughter, Zoe Zoe.
Speaker 2: Her Zoe, can't think of her last name. She was
Speaker 2: wearing this beautiful black dress and when she turned around
Speaker 2: for photographers, exactly in the shape of her butt was
Speaker 2: a mesh overlay. It was it was not fabric, it
Speaker 2: was see through mess just on her butt, basically highlighting
Speaker 2: her butt crack.
Speaker 1: I'd rather see that than Will Smith's stupid kid with
Speaker 1: a box on his head.
Speaker 2: Oh god, I know you'd rather see a butt cracked
Speaker 2: and that guy. I mean, I'd rather see her butt
Speaker 2: crack over her other butt cracks. But I'm just saying
Speaker 2: the plumber's butt crack. The plumber's crack is apparently a
Speaker 2: new trend.
Speaker 1: Sounds more for women than men, hopefully, Oh god.
Speaker 2: I mean, I hope it not for either one of them.
Speaker 2: But yeah, if somebody's gonna do it, please let it
Speaker 2: be the girls.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all the plumbers out there. Oh yeah, it's our time.
Speaker 3: They're like finally.
Speaker 1: Getting some recognition up in here. We've been doing this
Speaker 1: on accident for years and now you're finally recognized. Yeah.
Speaker 3: People made fun of it.
Speaker 2: It's one of those if you can't beat them, join
Speaker 2: them type situations, is what it sounds like.
Speaker 1: Yep, you're right, all right. That is the story we love.
Speaker 1: Stay with us. We've got more coming up. Thank you.
Speaker 1: The stories we love.
Speaker 2: Luna she's a seven month old Bernie's Mountain dog. She
Speaker 2: lives in la and she had a problem. Her mom
Speaker 2: and dad noticed that she was throwing up and her
Speaker 2: stomach was really hard and swollen, so they took her
Speaker 2: to the emergency vet, where they took X rays and
Speaker 2: were amazed to find all the things that Luna had swallowed.
Speaker 1: Okay, the real quick You said this to Bernie's Mountain dog, right, Yes, Okay,
Speaker 1: So my friend David has Bernie's Mountain Dogs, and then
Speaker 1: last Bernie's they had, which went to heaven. She died from.
Speaker 3: Eating things, eating things. Maybe that's a weird thing with
Speaker 3: the Bernie's mound underpants and socks. Listen to this. Here's
Speaker 3: what Luna ate. It's the whole laundry list, literally, a
Speaker 3: laundry list. Twenty four socks, oh.
Speaker 2: A scrunchy for your hair, two hair ties, a shoe insert,
Speaker 2: a small onesie and other bits of cloth.
Speaker 1: Those people need to pick up their laundry.
Speaker 3: They're a little messy.
Speaker 2: But also maybe Luna needs a little counseling on what
Speaker 2: not to eat.
Speaker 1: She's nervous.
Speaker 2: The vets had to perform two different procedures remove all
Speaker 2: the things that she had swallowed. Luna is absolutely fine,
Speaker 2: all happy, wagon her tail again and hopefully her parents
Speaker 2: are keeping a little bit better eye on her and
Speaker 2: she's eating.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it must be something with the breed, because David's
Speaker 1: that's not a safe thing to say to just speak coincidence. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the same thing happened to his dog. But I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you this for free friends. That's my new favorite

Speaker 1: That's the story we love more coming up as stories
Speaker 1: we love all Right.
Speaker 2: So there's been a scientific push to bring the Wooly
Speaker 2: Mammoth back that they're going to do baby steps a little,
Speaker 2: a little bit at a time, not bring the giant
Speaker 2: elephant sized creature back. So they've started with a wooly mouse. Stop,
Speaker 2: I'm not lying.
Speaker 3: They have created a really, really hairy mouse.
Speaker 2: They've genetically engineered it to exhibit traits that are just
Speaker 2: like the wooly mammoth. The wooly mammoth had like long
Speaker 2: wooly hair all over it, but.
Speaker 3: They put it on a mouse. How cute is that?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm looking it up right now. Have
Speaker 1: you seen a picture.
Speaker 2: No, this is just them describing it. That's just how
Speaker 2: they're starting. They edited and mouse embryos. I feel like, man,
Speaker 2: if I ever come back as something, I hope it's
Speaker 2: not a mouse because they get experimented on all the time.
Speaker 2: But it's a little mouse with long, thick, wooly mammoth hair. God,
Speaker 2: I think that's adorable.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at I don't know if these are the
Speaker 1: babies or this is AI or what they think they're
Speaker 1: going to look like. Have they've done this?
Speaker 3: They've done it, that's what they said.
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, then that's the real thing. He looks like
Speaker 1: a big Harry hamster.
Speaker 2: Yeah, tail, yeah, they're saying that they are trying to
Speaker 2: play similar genetic modifications to Asian elephants, which are the
Speaker 2: closest living relatives of the mammoths, to reintroduce those traits
Speaker 2: like the dense, long fur onto.
Speaker 3: I mean, basically, they're bringing the wooly mammoth back to life.
Speaker 3: And then I think they're onto the doors.
Speaker 1: They do we need the wooly mammoths to come back? Serious?
Speaker 1: Why do we need that?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I feel like things are going extinct for a reason,
Speaker 2: but they're going They have a goal of twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 3: I mean they put it on the calendar.
Speaker 1: Of when they're going to have the mammoth back.
Speaker 2: Hopefully producing a mammoth calf by twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 3: I say we.
Speaker 2: Stick with the mice. How cute are those? Nobody's going
Speaker 2: to get trampled by a wooly mouse?
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they don't eat as much and their hoopo's
Speaker 1: not that we Yeah.
Speaker 3: I say we stick with the mouse. Don't mammoth die?
Speaker 3: Let them be in our memories.
Speaker 1: I don't understand science when we go back in time.
Speaker 1: Shouldn't science always be going forward? Right?
Speaker 3: But why the wooly mammoth.
Speaker 2: I've heard them talking about the wooly mammoth and the
Speaker 2: Dodo bird for years. Are we I mean, is are
Speaker 2: we bad off worse off for them not being here?
Speaker 2: Or is this just a we're going to try it
Speaker 2: to see if we can.
Speaker 1: Kind of somebody conned someone out of a bunch of
Speaker 1: money to do the project, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm fine with the wily mouse. I say, we
Speaker 3: stand there.
Speaker 1: That is the story we love. More coming up see.
Speaker 2: The stories we love all right, Sandy, you're Reddit lover.
Speaker 2: Story came from Yeah, some guy turned to Reddit for
Speaker 2: advice after he drank too much at a family barbecue,
Speaker 2: fell asleep in a hammock, and his brother in law
Speaker 2: filled his belly button with super glue.
Speaker 1: That's pretty funny.
Speaker 3: I think it's funny too. However, it landed him in
Speaker 3: the er.
Speaker 2: They had to use solvent and ointment and all kinds
Speaker 2: of stuff to remove the glue, and he ended up
Speaker 2: with a medical bill for over twenty two hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: Oh, I wonder if his skin was allergic to it
Speaker 1: or I.
Speaker 2: Mean, super glue did its job, it was staying put.
Speaker 2: So this happened several months ago. His brother in law
Speaker 2: refused to pay for the medical bill, so he took
Speaker 2: him to small claims court and one but his brother
Speaker 2: in law still has not paid. What brother in law
Speaker 2: I know, he said that it's caused this huge rift
Speaker 2: in his family. His wife's side thinks he overreacted and
Speaker 2: shouldn't have gone to the hospital in the first place.
Speaker 2: He said, even his wife is barely on his side.
Speaker 2: His brother in law's going through divorce and is between
Speaker 2: jobs and can't afford to pay for the medical bill.
Speaker 2: The mother in law offered to pay him, but she's
Speaker 2: on a fixed income, so he hasn't taken her up
Speaker 2: on it.
Speaker 3: And he was like, I know, I know it's a
Speaker 3: joke gone bad.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I do think that that brother in law
Speaker 2: has some a responsibility for this.
Speaker 1: The guy that put the yes yes, of course he does.
Speaker 1: I mean, if the guy doesn't put the super glue
Speaker 1: in the guy's belly button, he doesn't go to the doctor.
Speaker 2: Right, they're saying he didn't even really need to go
Speaker 2: to the doctor. He had just been chill about it
Speaker 2: and figured out at huh.
Speaker 1: The doctor proved him wrong.
Speaker 2: I mean, the doctor probably charged is twenty two hundred
Speaker 2: dollars it probably cost about three hundred to get it out.
Speaker 1: No, that's true.
Speaker 3: So I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I don't know if this is what
Speaker 2: I would blow my family up over.
Speaker 1: Though. I remember freaking out when I had a procedure
Speaker 1: done and they made an incision in my shoulder to
Speaker 1: reattach my bicep muscle. First. It was weird because when
Speaker 1: the surgery is over, the doc came to he goes, hey,
Speaker 1: I noticed when I was in there that your bicep
Speaker 1: was detached, so I went ahead and put it back on.
Speaker 3: It was very by the way.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And then he said, and I just closed the
Speaker 1: what do you call it incision with a type of
Speaker 1: medical super glue, Like, huh, that's really cool because there's
Speaker 1: no stitches. Yeah, yeah, it was pretty cool. So that's
Speaker 1: super glue. I wish i'd in vented it.
Speaker 3: Man, I'm afraid of super glue.
Speaker 2: I'm buried like towels, laid out paper, towels, gloves on.
Speaker 3: Nobody can be near me.
Speaker 1: Uh. That's the story. We love more coming up. Thank
