Let's break out of the bubble and see what's happening out there in pop culture.
It's swipers day on daybreak.
A list artist dropped surprise track for upcoming movie.
Oh, I know that story.
We know what it
is.
Let Frank have his moment.
After yet another series of Easter eggs presented like a suspicious countdown on the singer's website and billboards around several cities around the world.
Disney and Pixar have confirmed that Taylor Swift is releasing a new original song.
I knew it.
I knew you for Toy Story five.
Was anybody surprised by this?
No, but look, it's all in levels, right?
Sure.
There's certain fans like my wife that notice the background to.
the 1989 Taylor's version album on Spotify being changed from seagulls in the background to Toy Story Clouds.
Sure.
Really?
And yes.
OK.
Wow.
This is a glimpse into the Taylor Swift fandom.
This is what she does, is she does stuff like this to get the internet in an uproar.
Good for
whoever is
behind her stuff.
That's very clever.
Yes.
Very smart.
I mean, she.
She's very good at the marketing of herself.
I mean, she's, she's better at laying these Easter eggs for this though than anybody will ever find out about this upcoming wedding.
It's
wedding.
Listen, I think she's going to make a lot more money.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, and maybe that's what Pixar was hoping.
I mean, if you've got Taylor Swift promoting for you, do you really need a marketing department at that point?
No.
No.
No.
Because how
many
people are going to go just to hear the Taylor Swift song in the theater?
Of course.
A ton.
I'm
going to go because Frank will be there.
Toy Story is my favorite Disney movie, period.
Oh, Toy Story is one of my favorites.
I've seen
them all, Frank, just so you know.
Yep, they should have stopped at three.
Anyway, the song is dropping this Friday.
The movie's going to release on June 19.
Are we going
to feature it on Swiper's Day?
Of course.
All right.
That's what we do here.
Taylor posted saying, I've always dreamed of getting to write these characters who I've adored since I was five years old watching the first Toy Story movie.
I fell instantly in love with the movie when I was lucky enough to see it in its early stages.
And I wrote this song as soon as I got home from the screening of the current movie.
And don't worry, everybody.
That's Taylor Swift fan.
She's currently selling pre-orders.
For the single.
Of
course she
is.
And there are three different variants.
Of course.
Of course.
Of course.
That's where it gets a little late.
Because not
only does she market the movie well, she also markets herself well.
What kind of variants?
Acapella,
hip hop.
There's CDs.
No.
There's an acoustic version and a regular version.
Sure.
And there's three different CD covers.
Oh.
So different
art.
They're collectible.
Love it.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
This is what she does.
She's a
mastermind.
And her fans will buy all three.
Now everybody, I love that everybody keeps saying she, she, she.
The Taylor Swift machine is doing, Taylor Swift is very talented.
I don't doubt it, but she's not talented in all these aspects.
She's got a machine that's working, working to keep Taylor Swift the brand.
No,
her publicist tree pain is truly a mastermind.
I don't know what she gets paid.
It's not enough, but if you want to go down that rabbit hole, go for it.
And isn't
it true that Taylor Swift's dad still makes a majority of decisions and has to be involved in a lot of that?
That I don't know.
All right.
I know he was an early investor in her career, monetarily speaking.
All right, we've got more stories,
right?
Okay.
Former Wisconsin Badger joins network television.
Stay.
It's painful.
I'm going to swipe.
I want Parker to get in front of
me.
It's
painful.
Stay.
I need to hear this explanation now.
CBS country.
Let's ride as Russell Wilson would say.
Former Wisconsin Badgers quarterback Russell Wilson has announced that he's joining CBS Sports.
It's important to note that Russell Wilson has not officially retired from the league.
Yes, he has.
He just doesn't know it.
He was offered a backup role to Geno Smith with the New York Jets just a couple of weeks ago.
OK.
Wow.
Big time.
Now, now he's going to replace Matt Ryan on the broadcast panel that includes James Brown, Nate Burleson and Bill Cower as Matt Ryan returns to the Atlanta Falcons as the team's president of football operations.
Huh.
Is he going to be as cringy on that as he has been
on other things?
OK.
You.
What a rhetorical question that was.
Yeah, probably.
Is Russell Wilson a Hall of Famer?
Oh, no.
We don't have time for that.
Parker's going to give me wrap-up signals.
That's one of Parker's hot takes on the weekends.
It's true.
We'll come back to that.
Love Island USA contestant dropped for language.
Oh, I've never seen a Love Island any country, but I'll stay.
I like scandal.
We're almost out of time.
Stay.
This is a quick story.
We'll wrap up here.
Love Island USA booted season A contestant, Visana Montgomery.
after two videos circulated online of her allegedly using the N word.
Oh, no.
Oh, and that's how you get kicked off a reality show.
Wow.
This comes right before the premiere of the show, which happens to be today.
In her in the peacock cast announcement teaser, she said, I think I'm the full package.
I own a business.
I live alone.
I have a dog.
If you were to ask my friends what my type is.
They'd show you the world map.
Oh,
but only the white parts of the map.
You know.
That did not age well.
That's what
I
like.
It did not age well, but I like a girl with some delusional confidence.
I'm an entrepreneur, a dog mom, a racist.
What?
Huh?
What was
that last one?
Nothing.
Let's
do
the show.
Never
mind.
Never
mind.
Never mind.
Anyway, that's swipe or stay.
Oh, thanks, Frank.
