Parker (co-host)

Let's break out of the bubble and see what's happening out there in pop culture.

It's Swiper's Day on daybreak.

Let's play the game.

Let's see what we got today.

I'm looking forward to it.

Let's play it.

Parker,

Frank (host)

welcome back.

Parker (co-host)

Good.

So

Frank (host)

here's the name of the game.

It's called Swiper's Day.

I'm going to read some vague pop culture headlines and Parker and Brian are going to have to decide whether to stay or to swipe on to the next story.

So let's get started with number.

one.

British Rockstar makes headlines for congratulating the king.

Parker (co-host)

Oh, I saw the picture.

I didn't read the story.

I'm going to stay.

Frank (host)

You didn't read the story.

Parker (co-host)

I did not.

Frank (host)

Okay.

Parker (co-host)

I

Frank (host)

didn't read the story.

I don't know anything about this.

Stay.

Oh.

Brian, you're going to love this story.

Now, here's the deal.

I'm going to preface this with what is audio.

And I implore you all to go look for it.

However, for the radio audience, it wouldn't translate well enough because it's so hard to hear.

So it wouldn't be doing anybody any good.

So Sir Rod Stewart is making the rounds today in entertainment news this time for congratulating King Charles on his trip to our love, lovely country.

Monday's 50th anniversary celebration for the King's Trust at London's Royal Albert Hall.

Rod Stewart congratulated the King and his Queen by saying, may I say, well done in the Americas.

You were superb.

Absolutely superb.

Put that little wrap bag in his place.

That is not, those are not my words.

That is the actual quote from

Parker (co-host)

Rod

Frank (host)

Stewart.

to King Charles at Royal Albert Hall.

Who was he talking

Parker (co-host)

about?

Frank (host)

I know

Parker (co-host)

he doesn't come

Frank (host)

out and say exactly who it was.

Parker (co-host)

I

Frank (host)

think everybody in our audience is smart enough to piece that one together, who he could be talking about.

Parker (co-host)

Put that

Frank (host)

little wrap bag in his place.

Parker (co-host)

It's one of the

Frank (host)

greatest quotes that

Parker (co-host)

will go

Frank (host)

down in history.

Parker (co-host)

But then the weird part was after he said that, he looked at Camille and said,

Do you think I'm sexy?

Frank (host)

Good ball.

That's a Parker.

That's a song.

Parker (co-host)

Okay.

That's one of Rod

Frank (host)

Stewart's biggest hits.

Okay.

Parker (co-host)

If you want my body.

Frank (host)

No.

All right.

Enough singing

Parker (co-host)

for these two

Frank (host)

morons.

All right.

Story number two, Dancing with the Stars adds a non-traditional celebrity to the lineup.

Swipe, swipe.

I don't care.

Oh, my God.

See, you guys are killing

Parker (co-host)

me.

Frank (host)

See, his feelings get hurt when we swipe.

No, my feelings aren't hurt, but I think you two made a grave mistake, but I'll come back to it in the secret show.

See, this is what happens when we swipe.

We get to hear it anyway later.

It's fine.

Wisconsin sports owner target of blackmail scheme.

Parker (co-host)

We talked about this yesterday and stuff you need to know.

Frank (host)

Yeah, I'm a swipe.

Parker (co-host)

We did the

Frank (host)

whole.

Parker (co-host)

We did the whole story.

Frank (host)

Hollywood director becomes travel companion to scout filming locations.

Parker (co-host)

Oh.

All right, we'll stay.

Can we swipe two in a row?

I don't want to swipe the whole day.

Frank (host)

No, it's OK.

You don't like my stories,

Parker (co-host)

Brian.

No, I do.

We talked about that story for

Frank (host)

10 minutes yesterday.

You... But Parker didn't get to... I felt bad for Parker.

Was it yesterday?

Parker (co-host)

I don't know.

Parker shouldn't get off.

He wants to hear all the story.

You know what he can do, Frank?

He can go to Spotify and listen to the podcast.

There you go.

Plug it.

Ooh, what a

Frank (host)

plug.

Maybe

Parker (co-host)

you're listening on Spotify

Frank (host)

right now.

Parker (co-host)

Maybe.

Yeah, maybe you are.

All right, Frank, who's the Hollywood director?

Frank (host)

Hollywood director becomes travel companion.

Now, guys, I know this is a weird headline.

And if I was writing for a newspaper, I don't think this headline would fly.

OK.

But you know who is flying?

Hollywood director Brett Ratner.

Where is he flying, boys?

on Air Force One.

Parker (co-host)

Is he going to China with the president?

Frank (host)

He is flying

Parker (co-host)

to

Frank (host)

China with the president.

Let's see.

And he will be scouting filming locations for rush hour four.

Wow.

Because three wasn't good enough.

Because one wasn't enough.

Hold on.

Here's what I'll say.

I hate Brett Rantner.

And I don't think we need

Parker (co-host)

a rush hour

Frank (host)

for,

Parker (co-host)

for a myriad of reasons.

Rush hour

Frank (host)

one and rush hour two were good movies.

Never saw

Parker (co-host)

nothing.

Frank (host)

I guess I'll either.

Okay.

Parker (co-host)

No interest.

Chris Tucker, Jackie Chan, right?

Frank (host)

Yeah.

They were, they were both funny in it.

I don't think we need a,

Parker (co-host)

is that the one?

Is this the word?

Do you understand the words coming out of my mouth?

Frank (host)

Yes.

So I know that.

I know

Parker (co-host)

that.

I'm going to be

Frank (host)

honest.

Don't worry.

Some of the jokes didn't age well.

Parker (co-host)

Yeah.

Did.

Did they give a reason why he's flying with the president?

Frank (host)

The president is doing business over there.

Parker (co-host)

Yeah, I think they're going to China.

Well, let me tell you

Frank (host)

this.

Here's what I'll say.

This will be Ratner's first narrative feature since he was accused of sexual harassment and misconduct in 2017.

He's admitted no wrongdoing, of course.

Of course.

What was the last project?

Brett and Ratner executed.

Parker (co-host)

Charlie's Angels.

No, that

Frank (host)

was

Parker (co-host)

McGee.

The Melania movie,

Frank (host)

the Melania movie,

Parker (co-host)

the Melania movie.

Frank (host)

That's why Brett Ratner is back on Air Force one.

All right.

Hitching a ride to China, scouting some filming locations for

Parker (co-host)

rush

Frank (host)

hour for the movie that, you know what, America may be down right now.

We may be facing some affordability crises.

That's all made up, Frank, but you know what will help us rush hour

Parker (co-host)

for shower for.

You never know.

It's the

Frank (host)

weirdest things that bring us

Parker (co-host)

together.

Well, Parker, to your point, that is, it would be very weird if that brought us together.

Because, as Frank mentioned, a lot of those jokes don't fly today, so I don't know how they're going to clean it up.

And isn't Jackie Chan like 106?

No shade on Jackie Chan, but

Frank (host)

he's old.

He's older than you think he is.

Parker (co-host)

Yes.

And Chris Tucker is not the young energetic actor or comedian that he used to be.

Frank (host)

One quick thing, Brian.

We've got 30 seconds.

Donald Gibb, who was Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds, also passed away overnight, 71

Parker (co-host)

years

Frank (host)

old.

Parker (co-host)

Poor one out for Ogre.

That's sad.

Thank you, Frank.
