Bubble Bath Stories

Welcome Rubber Duckies of all creeds colors and cultures! The week before this recording, news broke out about DC’s Superman coming out as bisexual. This kinda news was juicy enough for the Twitter Trolls to start flapping their wings. A lot of hate. A lot of outrage. A lot that got Manny Oso thinking …. Do they even know what they’re mad about? Hmmm

First, it’s not really Superman. DC bestowed the mantle on to their new character, Jon Kent, the son of Lois & Clark. This new series of adventures is being steered by writer Tom Taylor. The decision to go this route was his. In this episode, Our Hosts come to the defense of this decision. Nicky Trendz points out the hypocrisy of the argument. Seeing as how female superheroes are portrayed sexually-unbelievable to begin with. Manny Oso brings up the details of Superman that people are ignoring.

But hey, you tell us!

Do you think Superman and other characters like him should be preserved?

So it’s out! The much anticipated stand-up special, from the G.O.A.T. Dave Chappelle. This past week, Netflix released The Closer, his 6th and likely final Netflix special. And with the that, the un-rest has begun!

This one was packed up with quotable moments and genius punch lines. And of course, he doesn’t hold back.

Since his first stand-up with Netflix, the man has had a lot of heat from the LGBTQ+ community about his material. Misinterpretations on headlines about his jokes have really made a storm on Twitter (which he doesn’t believe is a real place, haha).

So you know, Nicky Trendz & Manny Oso are here to bring you their side!

The truth is, it’s impossible to listen to his stand-up without having an opinion. But remember, there’s no room for hate in the our bathtub! Plenty of room for discussion!

But you tell us!

What were you thoughts on The Closer?

Do you think he crossed the line?

Do you believe his art is harmful or helpful?

Don’t forget to watch The Closer and the rest of Dave Chappelle’s Stand-Up Specials while you still can:

Another New Week! Another new Episode!

This week, the Rubber Ducky Gang sat down and got a chance to view LuLaRich, on documentary miniseries based on LuLaRoe, a retail and clothing company that is accused of being a pyramid scheme on Amazon Prime Video. You know the company? The funny leggings. You may have known someone involved. In the series, we get firsthand stories from former employees, recruiters, and founders of the company DeAnne Brady and Mark Stidham.

Nicky Trendz really lays in on this one. She’ll tell you about how she finds these Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) groups a major waste of assets. The worse being what LuLaRoe did to these people’s families. Manny Oso also finds himself giving you his first hand experiences, too, having been involved in MLM groups once, before.

The documentary is only four episode, but give you so many nuggets of great conversations.

Give the series a watch and you tell us what you think!

You can watch “LuLaRich” on Amazon Prime Video:

Hey Duckies. Welcome back!

This past week, Nicki Minaj got in some hot water with her Tweets. In a post she put up after responding to why she wasn’t at the Met Gala, Minaj made a claim about the COVID-19 Vaccine and the side effects. Naturally, people took that and ran with it!

We had late-night talking heads like Tucker Carlson using it as fuel for his Far Right-Wing claims. There were Health Officials for Trinidad and Tobago hunting down this man Minaj mentioned, who allegedly had “swollen testicles” after his vaccination. The Prime Minister of England was even questioned on this matter! Talk about unintentional side effects.

There have been people coming down on Minaj about accountability and the use of her platform. But on Bubble Bath Stories, we wonder why these official figure heads are even using her as a source. After reading through the Twitter threads, the whole tweet may not even be getting read in context in the news world. (Big surprise there!).

The world has decided to use this to fan each of their respective flames. And the Rubber Ducky Gang has decided to throw their Two Cents in!

But you let us know!

Who is to blame when theses posts go out of control?

Should we cut Nicki Minaj some slack?

Should Tucker Carlson get a new job?

It’s that time of year again! That’s right! For the 4th time in a row, The Rubber Ducky Gang is bringing you the MTV VMA’s Judgement Episode.

You know, that epsiode every year when Nicky Trendz & Manny Oso critique just how BAD the VMA’s have become?

This year was no different. There was enough lack luster performances to keep Nicky talking. And the missed opportunities for jaw dropping Collaba really upset Manny.

All this on their 40th Anniversary! You would think after 40 years they’d get the streaming glitches down!

They won’t recap the whole show, but they’ll definitely bring you the Good, the Bad, and ALL the Ugly!

But don’t be mad at them! Listen! Then go judge for yourself!

And keep the conversation going!

Okay you Guys, Manny Oso has a confession to make and you are the only one’s he wants to come out to. That right, Manny Oso is into Nostalgia Culture. Dun. Dun. Dun!

What is that? It’s all this recent entertainment media that capitalizes on all of our fond memories. We’re all victims of it and these two are here to get you through it.

If you’ve been keeping up with the news, re-boots, reimaginings, and re-do’s are coming out everywhere in Hollywood. We’re getting a lot of new viewing options coming out for us, from timeless classics like The Wonder Years & Fresh Prince of Bel Air, to things no one asked for like the new iCarly & How I Met Your Father.

Our hosts also go over how this Nostalgia Culture has also affected the world of Podcasts. It’s huge with all the Celebrity and non-Celebrity watch along shows where we are all compelled to re-watch our favorite shows from the past. We’re talking about things like Office Ladies, That’s Messed Up and Zack To The Future. These are only a few, of the many, that are discussed.

But this is just their side of the story, tell us your side!

Keep the Conversation Going!

Welcome back folks! Welcome back to the Listeners! Welcome back to your hosts! Time for some new conversations!

Nicky caught herself scrolling through Reddit again. This time she found herself reading about Age Gap Relationships. This is a subject that hits close for these two. Both have been heavy in AGR’s, but this isn’t a contest.

Today, you get to hear about those experiences. Manny gets a little revealing, but hey what good is a platform if your not going to disturb someone. And he’s had his fair share of AGR’s. Nicky speaks about her failed attempts at an on-again-off-again one that left her with a lesson well learned.

But tell us what you think?

Are Age Gap Relationships doomed to fail?

How fun can one be?

How do you tend to react when one of your Friends or Family is on one?

Let’s Us Know!

Keep the conversation going!

Here’s a a clip from the Dr. Phil segment Manny mentioned on Age Gap Relationships: https://youtu.be/mpjBMHvMnvg

Hello Gang!

So a new documentary came out this month in HBO called The Last Cruise. Manny Oso & Nicky Trendz gave it a watch and are here to give you the deets!

This documentary follows the months-long ordeal of the Diamond Princess cruise ship and the COVID-19 Outbreak that it hosted. This was during the very beginning of the Corona Virus Outbreak that took over all of 2020.

This doc really got the Rubber Ducky gang in their feelings. Manny got an anxiety scare thinking of the quarantine the crew members had to experience. They show you just how small the living quarters are.

And Nicky can’t help but think that this just reinforces her life long ban on Boat Trips!

But you tell us!

Did you watch The Last Cruise?

Have you been on a cruise nightmare?

What’s your opinion on open buffets?

Let us know!

Watch the documentary on HBOMax:
