About Google Trendcast
We talk about some of the nonsense that people are Googling today. We grab one or two of Google's trending topics and ask: why do people care? From the Grimace shake and Keke Palmer (which we learn is not a variation of the Arnold Palmer, but maybe should be) to aspartame and football hooligans, Google Trendcast is guaranteed to be unpredictable if nothing else. And yes, we're fully aware of the massive amount of irony in spending time talking about a topic that is, according to us, pretty much a waste of time. So sue us, except you Google, definitely don't sue us.

You Fkd Up Teddy Ruxpin
"Uh huh huh huh... hey Beavis, have you ever seen that Google Trendcast thing?" "Yeah, Butt-Head, I think it's like... that podcast thing on the internet or something." "Yeah, yeah, but get this... they're talking about that dude, Ryan Goosling, playing Beavis from Beavis and Butthead on Saturday Night Live." "Whoa, really? Ryan Goosling is like, that dude from those movies, right? The one with the muscles and stuff?" "Yeah, yeah, that's him. But like, why would he wanna be Beavis? Beavis is like, cool and stuff, but he's not that cool." "Yeah, but like, imagine Ryan Goosling going 'Uh huh huh huh, fire, fire!' That would be pretty funny, huh huh huh." "Yeah, maybe. But then they're also talking about grown men watching X-Men cartoons and playing with Teddy Ruxpins." "Uh, that's kinda weird, dude. Like, X-Men cartoons are cool and all, but aren't they like, for kids? And Teddy Ruxpins are those weird talking bear things, right?" "Yeah, yeah, but like, maybe it's cool for grown men to like, embrace their inner child or something. Like, 'I'm a grown man, but I still wanna watch cartoons and play with teddy bears, huh huh huh.'" "Yeah, I guess so. But like, if you're gonna watch cartoons, why not just watch Beavis and Butthead? We're way cooler than X-Men, huh huh huh." "Yeah, totally. So like, if you wanna hear more about this stuff, check out Google Trendcast or something. It might be cool, huh huh huh." --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/googletrendcast/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/googletrendcast/support (https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/googletrendcast/support)

Who gives a Shat...ner about Truth Social or March Madness
Welcome to the latest episode of Google Trendcast, where we serve up the juiciest slices of internet culture with a side of satire! In this edition, we're diving into the absurdities of the online world like a fearless diver plunging into the murky depths of the internet ocean. First up on our rollercoaster of absurdity: William Shatner's 10 Greatest Movie Roles. Strap yourselves in, folks, as we embark on a journey through the cinematic galaxy with none other than the legendary Captain Kirk himself. From his iconic role in "Star Trek" to his... well, other roles in "Star Trek," we'll dissect Shatner's filmography with the precision of a Vulcan mind meld. Next on the agenda: Truth Social Goes Public. That's right, folks, brace yourselves for the social media platform that promises to be as truthful as a politician during campaign season. In fact we'll take a dive into the world of truthiness, where every post comes with a side of skepticism and a dash of irony. Because who needs facts when you've got feelings, am I right? And finally, we'll tackle the age-old question: Is March Madness relevant in Europe? Spoiler alert: Not really. While our American friends are busy filling out brackets and debating the merits of their alma mater's basketball team, our European counterparts are probably sipping espresso and discussing the finer points of... well, anything else. But fear not, dear listeners, for we'll navigate this cultural divide with all the grace of a bull in a china shop. So grab your popcorn, buckle up, and prepare to laugh, cry, and question the very fabric of reality itself. Because here at Google Trendcast, we're not just exploring the internet – we're getting lost in the rabbit hole and loving every minute of it. Stay tuned, and remember: Don't believe everything you read online. Especially if it's on Truth Social. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/googletrendcast/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/googletrendcast/support (https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/googletrendcast/support)

Rumor has it, the man himself is rocking a CPAP machine. We're not saying the leader of the free world has a bedtime routine, but if he did, it would probably involve a glass of warm milk and some soothing ocean sounds.

Is it time to ditch the diet sodas and embrace a life without questionable chemicals? We'll give you the lowdown on what the corporations don't want you to know, man.
