You want to hit the official roundtable? Even though it won't be a roundtable. I think we're going to go long on this topicality. But I can. Okay, no, no, it's fine. It's fine. Okay, so there are a lot of people on the internet that you may or may not know. If you hit celebrity birthdays on the internet, on your birthday, there are probably 15 people that come up you've never heard of because there's some kind of TikTok influencer that's not in your wheelhouse, right? So there's a whole bunch of people out there making noise. You don't even know that they exist. One of them, either you know or you don't. For me, he's been blowing up the last like two weeks of knowing this person. I can never pronounce his name. I'm like, what the hell is his name? What is his name? It's Clavicular. Yes, Clavicular. We brought Alam a day. Alam a day. Somebody's asking what's his name? Somebody yesterday. Alam a day. Alam a day. He answers the phones behind the scenes and it's, how do you spell your name? A-O-L. Oh, oh, it's an O. Yeah. Oh my God. A-M-I-T-E. Okay. So yesterday somebody texted A, the word llama, A day. And they go, am I saying that right? Alam a day. I like that. Alam a day. And I was like, Alam a day. Maybe I'll be in the mystery box. Alam a day. Not Alam a day. So this kid, so he's famous for being good looking. Clavicular. So he's famous for like, looks maxing, which is basically like trying to become your best self, like, and not your best self in terms of like, your look. It's your best self in terms of your looks and getting what you want in the world. He's basically saying that if you look better, you get what you want. Everything you want. And I saw him in a video with his buddy. They're both, you know, thinking they're hot stuff. They have these big guards around them and then they walk up to like a girl and the boyfriend and he's like, hey, what's your number? What's your number? In front of the boyfriend. Yeah. And the boyfriend can't really do anything because there's a big, he's got like three guy, you know, bodyguards around him. Exactly. B.S. is like, all right, buddy, take those people away. Let's see. Let's see you do that now in front of me. So he is an influencer of sorts. Maybe you have the first time you're hearing him right now or you know of him. But he was in the news first for what we originally want to talk about. And then three days ago, he was in the news because he overdosed. Yeah. And then today he was talking about how what you didn't realize when you're watching his videos is that he's completely high the whole time. And he said he doesn't know how to be sober and look max his looks. Everything. Yes. He does a lot of drugs. Yes. A lot of drugs. And he said that he can't mug. Kev, there's no mugging sober. Mugging. Mugging is looking significantly more attractive or physically superior to someone else. Thus, dominate. He thinks he's the hottest guy in the world. So much so that 60 minutes in Australia interviewed him about that. We can play a little bit of this. Just hear what this guy's like. Not that hot. Yeah. But he's as important as you're suggesting. Do you think that if you were bald, if you were fat, that you would be doing this interview, that you would be a journalist? Yeah. Yeah, I do. Well, I would tell you that it's very unlikely that you would have the career that you do. But if you didn't have the looks package, that's really what it comes down to. You'll see a lot of media personalities with full heads of hair, generally in shape, and that's what it comes down to. So again, I disagree. Do you not think they're a bald, over-white journalist? Of course I do. I'm just saying you would have had to overcome that disparity by being a lot better in other metrics to have the career that you do. The people who follow you, do you feel the weight of responsibility at all? And do you reflect on the fact that the people following you are looking for something, looking for guidance, and you might be sending them down a really dark, sad path? Well, yeah, I do feel responsible for the advice that I give, and that's why I didn't just go through a laundry list of different things that I take and try to have people replicate them without all the background that they need to do things successfully. But going a little bit further into it, do I feel responsible for the mental state that people could be in by realizing the importance of looks and not being potentially good looking? Yeah, I mean, obviously I'm responsible because I'm putting the message out there and I'm the content creator. But am I supposed to feel bad if someone just gets brutally insecure or starts having body dysmorphia? It's like, why is that responsibility on me? Okay, his image of the Clivicular, if we're just tuning in, this is a really show with Eric. Clivicular is his name. That was part of an interview in Australia on 60 Minutes. Now, since that interview he has overdosed and he has claimed, he has said since his overdose, that he cannot do in real life streaming after his overdose because he needs to quit substances completely and he can't keep doing streams without them. He said, I either have to practice mogging sober or just find a new form of content. But listen, can we break down the base of what he said there? He's telling the journalists at 60 Minutes, do you believe that you would have this job if you were bald and fat? Now, there are so many layers that you know why? Because that journalist does look good. He is good looking. And we all know how the entertainment game works. Not everybody can be the beautiful one because we need character definition for different cast members of characters. Football. And they go, okay, she's on the field. Here's Jan and then Jan's down there and she looks like a Broadway model. Right. You know, every, they should ESPN, ABC, ABC. They all have that. Eric, I'm not going to disagree with you on the hair thing. I'm saying they're really talented. The hair thing? Yeah. How many celebrities do you see that are really bald? They're like the Brad Pitt's of the world. I mean, Bruce Willis back in the day, he shaved it. The rock. The rock. But that's a look. That's a niche look. That's like a rock. The rock head hair, but he shaved it off. And he's not lying about, look, there are plenty of journalists who don't look like Brad Pitt's, but they are not the guy who's leading the 60 Minutes. Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, all these guys. So yes, there is truth to partially what he's saying, but there's also look at any movie or television show and the characters, there's always like the funny guy or the odd looking girl. Like what was that oddball weird Netflix movie like the other Mindy or Melissa or something. We're like, that girl looks like a giraffe or like a gazelle. Oh yeah, the Missy. No, it's Missy. The wrong, Missy. The wrong, Missy. The wrong, Missy. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. She was funny. She gets jobs because she looks that way because they need to fill in some kitschy roles, but she's not going to be the one that fills in the space for the other Fiercens of the world. Like he's a comedian at Rife, like he's young and good looking. Some people are like good looking people be funny, funny. Look at Jonah Hill, he lost all that weight and people are like, oh, he can't be funny anymore because I'm like, I don't. Who else is a comedian? Because he's not fat. It's not just not, but who was the other one, Eric? It was Jonah Hill and somebody else who lost a lot of weight and they said, I can't get jobs because I'm not, they don't think I'm funny anymore because I'm not overweight. I think that was Jonah. It was Jonah, but there was one more, I can't remember. And I know famously the guy from Friday Night Lights. Jonah Hill's gone too. Like, he looks really too skinny as well. Right, so not Friday Night. I'm like a bar boy. Varsity Blues. If you look at the Varsity Blues cast, hold on. He lost a lot of weight and couldn't get any jobs in Hollywood. Did he pass away? He did end up passing away later in life, but yeah, if I look at the cast, I can't remember his name. And then on the clavicular thing, I think the big problem with him was that he was telling people, okay, this is how you achieve these results. He would do like bone smashing, which is basically he would take a paperweight and hit his chin until it would like reshape his jaw. No, no, no, yeah. Oh, yeah. He would do it on stream too. And this guy doesn't take any responsibility for it. No, that's ridiculous. So if you're a 14-year-old kid. He'd break his own facial bones on his face on camera. Yes. And then didn't go, oh, he didn't feel that. So then you don't have to go to the doctor after that? Nope. That's crazy. He goes the healing and the healing will like push your bone. That can't be real, Alameda. Yes. Oh, no. That's why it's dangerous. That's why it's dangerous. He takes a paperweight and just goes, doom, doom, doom, like literally a hammer. He said, or you could take like a hammer and like literally just like... And did he even do that in real life? Did he get, maybe if he got surgery and then he just says that? Right. That's another thing you don't know. It's not reality. Kids don't know that. A 14-year-old, 16-year-old. And it's hard enough in those years of middle, the middle school years or the elementary years when you are starting to be aware of what you look like. And then you have some idiot like him doing that and you think, okay, I guess that's what I have to do too. No, that's the maddening part of trying to raise children in the digital age. You might be good looking on the outside, but the inside you're just... Exactly. Empty and garbage. And the whole reason he says he does all these like other things is because his parents wouldn't sign off on the surgery. Oh, so he had to do other methods. So he has to find other methods to do it. Well, what got him to that point to think that looks as all that matters? Like, to society? Pretty privileged. Should he say what it was? The money coming through Instagram? Yeah, but there's other ways to make it on Instagram. It could be the way that he grew up. I keep seeing this kid, he's 23, he goes around and finds billionaires, he just talks to them. Wait, Eric, hold on a second. We're forgetting something to mention here. You and I both know a girl who was literally raised by her mother since she was young to tell her, listen, you are not pretty like your sister. I mean, you're not smart like your sister. You're going to have to go on your looks. The mom raised her that way. The mom pressed for her to get a nose job and a boob job and all the things. In my first impression of her, she really was a sweet girl. I mean, she was super genuine, but she was realistic with me. She goes, listen, my mom told me who I was when I was a kid. My mom played a number of times. She told me I'm not smart. She told me I've got to find a man with my looks. And this is what I've done to my body and my face because this is what I need. You have people raising children doing that to them. Your kid's not a Barbie doll. Right. You can't just dress them up the way you think they should. You didn't make a child for you to live a second life through them. A lot do though. And that is the terrible part of it. So anyway, it's just a whole controversy. Well, he's overdosed and now he doesn't know if he can keep doing it. Maybe it's better off he doesn't because if that's the message, nobody's gonna hear it. Keep it a lookout for your kids though if they were watching him. Yes, because there are a lot of YouTube stars your kids know that you don't know. Have a conversation with them about who it is. I could never watch it because I couldn't spell that name. I can't even say it. Was it clavicle? Clavicular. Clavicular. Sounds like clavicular. Clavicular. Clavicular. Clavicular. Clavicular. Okay. Coming up next we're doing romance or no chance. Been a while. It's been a while. Now if you've had a wild or weird first date with someone, you're gonna tell us about it at 833-390-KRVE based on the activity that happened on that date. We are going to guess did you guys agree to see each other at least one more time? Just one more time. Maybe you do a mulligan and then you said this is a mistake or y'all got married. I don't know. Let's see what we get next on The Realest Show with Eric. This is a show with an obsessive focus on what's good for America. You are going to love Vince. The Vince Show. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. We're going to guess did you guys see each other at least one more time or was it over with the one? Let's go to Lauren. 833-390-KRVE. We're going to guess did you guys see each other at least one more time or was it over with the one? Let's go to Lauren. 833-390-KRVE. We're going to guess did you guys see each other at least one more time or was it over with the one? Let's go to Lauren. 833-390-KRVE. We're going to guess did you guys see each other at least one more time or was it over with the one? Let's go to Lauren. 833-390-KRVE. We're going to guess did you guys see each other at least one more time or was it over with the one? Let's go to Lauren. 833-390-KRVE. Why can't I pick up this phone line? Hi Lauren. It's not cooperating. Hi Lauren. Good morning. Good morning. Okay now in your telling of the story remember don't give us details that give away the answer. Tell us what happened. Okay so basically I went on a date. It was the last minute date with this dude. We actually met up at Hooters. It wasn't planned but you know we ended up meeting up at Hooters. Nice. And then so yeah we get there or I get there and he's just like super awkward. Doesn't really give me much eye contact. He's really shy and I just talked it up as him just being you know a shy guy. Wait can I ask a question? Wait how did you meet him? Because y'all met at the Hooters. How did you say about him? Dating app. Dating app. Okay got it. Go go go. Not making eye contact kind of being weird. Go ahead. Yeah. So you know it was an awkward date. We talked okay during like through the chat or whatever but not in person. And so you know I'm like finding ways to like finding topics to talk about with him because I really don't know what to do at this point. Yeah. And I noticed that he has like some dogs on his screen saver. Okay. So I'm like oh you know you have two dogs you know da da da da. Well he was divorced and he starts talking about the dogs. He's like yeah unfortunately you know my ex-wife kept the dogs. I really miss him you know and he just goes down on the tangent about how much like how he got the dogs how like how he took care of them and he starts crying about the dogs. And yeah. At the whole time like for how long was he crying? I mean he was crying for I mean for me it felt like forever but. What? I felt like he cried. Did he tell you stories about the dogs like a little little. Little Peter here. Yeah little Peter did when he was five. And he did this he loved you know he loved this. Yeah yeah yeah basically you know just saying that. Okay. Yeah it was it was two small dogs too and I mean it was just funny because he was like you know an older tall dude and the dogs were like shitshoos. They were small dogs. Yeah. Little blue dogs. Okay so the guy is crying about missing the dogs that his ex-wife got the divorce on your date. I mean I'd like to ask you but I can't because we got to guess from that like are you a pet person but we can't ask. We can ask that. Okay. Okay. Based on what we know. I'm going to guess no there was not. What do you guys think. No. Okay Sam. I don't see it. I'm going to say yes because she's going to spin it and she's going to be like I actually have a dog at my house and then he's going to go back to her house and they're going to play with the dog and then they're going to be married and live happily ever after and then they're going to get another dog. So I'm going to say yes. That's a nice story. That's a nice story but probably didn't happen. Okay go ahead Eric. She was disgusted with the way he looked and the way he cried and. I think it was more about the lack of conversation. Like this guy in the beginning and then this is what you talk about. Yeah. You won't shut up now about your dogs. Yeah. She's done with this guy. Okay Lauren what's the answer all of us except for Sam think that y'all never saw each other again. I think Sam's answer is so cute but no we did not have a second date. Yeah. How did you end that first date like was it like you got up from the booth of Hooters and we're like all right well good luck with that. Well I mean aside from the lack of conversation he really like he was kind of flirting with the waitress so it was just. Oh god. So he's all depressed and doesn't want to talk to you but had it in him to flirt with the waitress. Yeah. Yeah. Where her boots are out. Was he crying? Was he crying while he was eating those wings? Like you know he got that orange like Kevin gets that orange. Ring around his mouth. Ring around his mouth. Did he have that around his mouth? No he wasn't. It was funny because you know it was like he was trying to hide it at first and then he just kind of just from blow blown started reminiscing on the dogs but yeah I took him home I took him to his home I took I dropped him off to his place. Yeah I did. What? At that point I know. Yeah there's so many red flags there. Yeah I'm glad you're here Lauren. Did he pay for dinner? Exactly. I mean we just had a couple drinks but yes he paid but yeah he was. You didn't even get wings? No. No. That's the first time I met him. This sounds like the worst date ever. Wings are not a first date cuisine. Well the fact that you went somewhere the way you're food what we've learned guys in the single world is going on a date with food is a big step. A lot of people don't do that. They'll meet for drinks or coffee but they will not invest the money or the time in a dinner date. Let's pivot here for a second. Okay thank you Lauren for calling. Have a great day. Take care. No problem. Thank you. Bye. Let's make a quick list. We're not to go on a first date. Okay we're not to go on a first date. It could be places it could be you know like Sonic. Sonic. You gotta show a little more effort than that especially if you think it's cute to sit in the drive-thru why they come over to you. No Sonic is not a first date. No I love barbecue places and that's cool way to like show. Hold on can we say an age? Cause if I'm 15 listen to this you're like well Sonic's the one place I got. Yeah yeah. I mean for kids. Yeah. 25 plus. 25 plus. 25 plus. A full time job. Yes yes. You're adulting. Out of college. Yeah you're adulting. 25 plus we're not to go on a first date. Anything that's fast food. Barbecue I feel like I love barbecue and I don't still. It's usually self-service and it's messy. Yeah. You gotta get up in there. And you're sitting close to everybody cause you don't love barbecue places you're unbentious and stuff. I like that though. I feel like that's not so much pressure because it's more of like a low key vibe. Like I'm gonna drink a beer, get barbecues. Barbecues not cheap y'all. Yeah that's true. And he's gonna pay Sam that brisket sandwich costs like 15 bucks. You better get all sloppy with that. I'm not getting sloppy when I eat it with a fork and knife. Sometimes you can wash your hands. Maybe that's a red flag. Maybe my taco that you got me with a fork and knife. No. That was embarrassing. What about just a movie and nothing else. Just a movie. Like a movie theater? No that's not good because you're not talking for two and a half hours. Yep I put that on the list. Absolutely not. Yeah movie on the list. No first date movie. No. The fun is it sounds a loud club is not fun. No because you can't talk to each other. No. And then you're gonna be looking at other people and then you're gonna see this guy's not paying attention to me. But concerts are okay right? I think concerts are great for things. If you like concerts together. Especially be your first dance song when you get married. But you're not talking. It's like a movie you're not talking. But you're enjoying it. You're enjoying the same thing together. And there's downtime in between. Yeah there's drinks. And you can dance. Yeah you can dance together or like you know vibe next to each other if you like that song. Rub a little bit. Like this. Bumping grass. That one's questionable. Yeah. I definitely like that. Oh for sure. I always like the artist. Yes for sure. That makes sense. Yes yes. How about laser tag. Oh god. That's cool. Laser tag. I'm like is it grown up? Not paintball. Oh no no no. Listen you can do an active date if you've asked. Yes. Don't dump a paintball date on me. I like show up in heels and dresses. I wore wedges for this. We're going paintballing. I'm like no we're not. Pickleball. I'll tell you right now we're not doing that. I'm in wedges. For like if a dude were to ask another dude to go to the beach that'd probably be cool. But to ask a lady to go to the beach on your first date that would be a lot of pressure. For sure physical pressure. Unless it's just a walk on the seawall type of beach date. We're going to Galveston. Let's go to the Strand. I got this cool place on the seawall. We could go have dinner. Now listen Sam. Can I represent the ladies on this one? If I'm going on a first date with a guy that I don't really know. Yes. And he proposes to come pick me up and drive me to Galveston. And we live up here in Houston. And I say you're going to take me to the killing fields aren't you? He's going to do what's his name. That's a big commitment. You have to drive the whole way there. Because then you have the car ride to talk. Yes. And then you get to the seawall. You're like hmmmm. What are you going to talk about? We've all exhausted the conversation. Because Wamsip he's driving and he only likes to listen to his music and he doesn't like to listen to your music. Or he doesn't want to talk. Or you talk the whole entire drive there and then you have nothing to talk in the restaurant. Yeah. You better have a safety end of this thing to call. You're like oh my god what happened to your beach house. There's a pipe burst. Hold on. I got an Uber out of here. My friend's beach house is underwater. I don't know something. You got a plan. You eat and you're going home in the one hour drive. You got bubble guts. Oh god. Well forget that. I'm just saying. That's a long date. That is a long date. The drive to Galveston on a first date. Yeah. The Galveston time and the drive back. That's a commitment. You got to really know you like the first date. So pretty much anywhere if you can't drive far. It can't be that convoluted. First date can't be too long. You're going to go to Katie. Yeah. To do something. You're going to go to the place with a pop pop shot. Or what's called. Pop stroke. Pop stroke. Pop stroke. Pop stroke. Yeah. One of that. That's fun. Yeah. I like top golf. Someone said Astros game. That's a good one. I put those on the good list. That's a good list. Those are good. We're not to do. We're not to do. We're not to go. Someone said not going to a church event. Oh. Well I guess you can find out if they're religious or not. If you're not religious then you wouldn't like that. But if they are, if you both are. Unless it's a festival like the Greek festival. Yeah. Technically. If you're not religious then it's a church event in quotes. Because it's on the grounds of a church. What if you're 27 and he takes you to David Buster's. Because you'd be like I'm not a kid. I'm not. Some people like that stuff. That's like laser tag. That's what I'm saying. I'd be like. That's like the same vibe. I'll just be at the ski ball area. The one that's bowling. The one that has bowling above it. The one in the. Yeah. The improv. They do. They do. Yeah. I'm not a 10-year-old. Once again you'd like, like realist said you'd have to ask like hey do you want an activity kind of date. Yeah. Because none that could be fun. I'd say you don't feel confident in your body. And do what bowling. Because they're looking at your butt. And do bowling because you know you're going up there and they're going to be looking at your ass. Oh. Really. A bowling date is a low-key way to check out somebody's body. If the person's asking you hey let's go bowling. It's because they want to watch you walk and throw a ball. And nobody looks good in those shoes. Even Kevin can't pull it off. No he doesn't. The shoes or throwing a ball. That's true. Unless you're four. Even if you have right and four and they'll make fun of you if you're done with four. You can do the whole thing with your leg. I'm going to go up. I'm like can I have a bumpers please. Or else he's got a gutter ball thing. Oh my gosh. Okay. Y'all can. Anyway. Noted. Look at text. People are giving us their perfect dates. We're talking about places not to go. But yes. Famously when Mr. Determined. Now the bread man, my husband was dating me. I was running out of places to take him. Because he didn't live here. We went to an Astros game. We got on the kiss cam. It was really cute. And back then they gave you a DVD of the kiss cam. I don't know how they do it now. Did they give it to you? Because we knew somebody. Well you knew somebody to get it. Actually that's how it was. Yeah. I was going to say. They don't give those out. Right. But if you plan to proposal. That's a whole other thing. That'd be a good prank. What? Like say Kevin was going on a date. And he went to the Astros game. I know where he's sitting. And I know the guy. I'm like hey. He's going to ask his boyfriend to marry him. And then they go to them. Cut to you guys. What the hell is going on here? But that's a whole set up. They wouldn't do that. No. You can't prank that. Because proposals at sporting events on camera are planned. It's not usually. The kiss cam will come. They've been here a couple weeks to do it. I mean what are the odds that you brought the ring to Dican Park hoping the kiss cam gets you. I mean yeah. That has to be pre-planned. Right. Otherwise you're just going to propose it in the crowd. And that's going to go viral later. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. You could do it right now. Like it has to be a set up. Anyway. Okay. But thanks for the information. If somebody works at Dican Park. How do you get the, is it a stream video now? If I was on the kiss cam. How do you get it now? I don't know. Okay. Coming up next in Celebrity Scoop. A lot of controversy. Because even though this is, you know, green lit by the family. The A.I. Vel Kilmer movie that's coming out is going to turn everybody upside down. I bet there's times to get paid as actors. Ticked off actors I bet. For sure. For sure. We got to hit this up in Scoop next on KRBE. It's ready by Taqueria Rondas. And I want to give you something fantastic. If your kids love Disney, the world's collide tour is coming to the Toyota center December 2nd. Disney World's Collide Zombies and Camp Rock.

I'm going to give you a little bit of a tour of the world's collide tour. I'm going to give you a little bit of a tour of the world's collide tour. The heck was that? $10 million and all he did was a YouTube laptop. Well, he got to keep all the production costs low. And he got everyone talking for the whole week. Yeah. He has brought in the highest ever ticket demand for Coachella. Jesus. I know. Well, cheese and rice. His performance is the most Googled in Coachella history. What? Because everybody went to the Googler to see, well, what's he right mad about? Let me see what he did. And he's already sold more merchandise than any other artist has ever over Coachella's two weekends. His brand sold $5.04 million with a product in the first weekend. The previous record was $1.7 million of product in both weekends. Y'all, he made $5 million in clothes in one weekend. And Maria, who was on our show yesterday, she's worked here for eight years. It was her last day yesterday. She was a former intern who's worked behind the scenes. She bought her ticket. She's going to Coachella today. She paid $600, whatever. She said the first thing she's doing is getting the merch. She rented a locker. She's going to shove all the merch in there. And then she's going to go do all the things. And I'm like, man, the merch is on point for the Coachella and Bieber fans. So he will perform again this weekend on Saturday night. Now, here's what's got Hollywood all up in arms. Val Kilmer's estate, Val Kilmer's family, Val Kilmer himself signed off on this before he died of throat cancer. He is now going to appear in the upcoming film As Deep as the Grave, no pun intended, obviously, because he's deceased, using generative AI to recreate him. The film features Val Kilmer in a very healthy, younger way because it's all artificial intelligence powered. And the story follows archaeologists in Arizona's Kenyon of the Dead. And Val originally, guys, was cast for this role back in 2015. And then he found out he had throat cancer and he could not film it. Wow. So it is a project that he was hoping for for so many years. Really wanted to do it. And that is a great way that he gets to do it. And that's why he signed off on it. But this is what's turning Hollywood upside down because this is what they fought for for so long with SAG and contracts about what can Hollywood studios have access to when it comes to your likeness if you sign a contract to be their actor. Like, are we looking at never ever having the up and coming actor exist again because the actors that are out there are just going to get reprinted and reprinted and reprinted into new films? That's scary. I'll be like 10 years from now or less. If I have some actor, it's not even real. Well, they already have the AI generated actors. I mean, it'll be like the time through. Oh, I can't wait to see Blake Powers. Oh my God, he's awesome. Yeah, his last movie was really great. He's not a real person. Yeah, Meryl Streep, who is one of the most celebrated actresses of our time, right? She's about to star in Devil Wars Proto 2 May 1. She's been up for, I think she has the record for the most Academy Award nominations as an actress. You know, she's fantastic and she's been in Hollywood for decades. So what's to stop them from taking the 30 year old Meryl Streep and making her the star of the next film in 10 years or 20 years? I just, man, that sucks. I don't think they should be doing this. No, they should. If you give power to them, it just takes away from other actors. Because that's what I'm afraid of. They're going to just make up whole new people. There won't be a chance for somebody right now if you're 10 years old and you hope to be an actor one day. Would you have a chance against AI? And if you do that, I feel like you have to say it. What do you mean? Like, you're going to watch the show and they're going to say, this is an AI actor. Oh yeah, the whole cast is AI. Like, when they try to do for radio, they've tried a few stations like that. I know a lot of our competition, they're pretty much close to it. There are people from other cities just doing breaks and stuff. Pretending like they're from Houston, they just go online and read stuff. But now there's computers where you type in and the computer talks and says all this stuff. It's scary. I know, so we'll see what happens. I mean, everyone's supportive of this because Val Kilmer signed off on it and they miss him as an actor and he gets to live out this dream of this 10-year long saga of this movie. But it opens up a dangerous door, that's for sure. Slippery school. It's time for What's Going Down in H-Town. I'm a ruler show with Eric. 104.1, KRBE. It's brought to you by Easy Fiber and if you want to know all things Fleet Week, go to fleetweekhustin.com. There is a whole list of how you could be part of Fleet Week by doing ship tours. The whole reason Fleet Week happens is to have the U.S. crew, women and men that come to Houston have community interaction. It is a recruitment push, 100% recruitment push. And hopefully maybe one day when they've retired from their service, they come to Houston to live and be among our community. Maybe you're in high school right now as a junior and you're just trying to figure out what to do for your life. I see this and it inspires you to re-enlist. It is a celebration dedicated to the men and women of the USC services. It's the Navy, the Marine Corps and the Coast Guard. You can tour the ships, you can tour the equipment, check it all out. It's all about learning what is their service to the public and it fosters community relationships and boosts the recruitment. That's why it's happening and it's for the first time happening here in Houston. You'll see a lot of activity for that. Also, I had a question about the Memorial City IceRink. I'll just say go to Metro Nationals Instagram which is at Metro National. If you want to support the families that want to keep the IceRink open, they are a private company, they can do what they want. However, the ripple effect of who stops skating when the IceRink closes in July is tremendous. You could have future Olympians that their dream dead stops because they don't have a place to skate anymore. It's not feasibly possible for them in their day of their timeline. They close it, somebody should open it up. They go all the way to Richmond, Texas for the new one. Those rich people that live in Memorial get together and start a business. One of our listeners who direct messaged me about this that really wanted us to talk about this said that it takes three years to build an IceRink. So even let's say they say we'll build it somewhere else. Their daughter who's skating now at 14 is not going to get, she's there five days a week. So she'll lose that. She'll lose that. You gotta wait for it to freeze. Yeah, well, it's been three years. I don't know about that. It is Houston, it's pretty warm outside. Yeah, it is true. You gotta wait for that one day a year. You could use it. Great. You're gonna open the windows. Oh, you gotta put it free. Memorial City's IceRink has been clutched for me on those super hot summer days when the kids wanted something to do. And we go to the ice. Just watch people? And I'm like, okay, I'll just watch you skate. Oh, I think you just, you guys can watch them. No, no, they skated. I've never skated there, have y'all? Yeah, yeah, I've taken my kids multiple times. I haven't skated, I'm not a good skater. What's I'm saying? Have you put your feet on the ice? Not their ice. I did the Bellary one when I was a kid. I did Discovery Green when they make that fake one. Did you do it? Okay, that's what I thought. Isn't that a fake one? It is a fake one. Yeah, of course. So a lot of people very hurt by the choice to close down the rink and they're hoping to save it. Go to Metro Nationals Instagram and let's see if they hear you. Tell them how you feel. All right, if you missed what happened on Roses today, it was really controversial because it is the adult daughter of a couple. As a family, they moved here two years ago from the East Coast and she feels like her dad is cheating on her mom. Her mom has the job that brought them to Houston. The dad is doing like contract handyman work and she feels like things are going sideways. Here's how it played out next on The Rula Show with Eric. Follow and listen on your favorite platform.
