Five Minutes of Fame

  • Get ready for a few moments of country music trivia. (2:00)
  • Vinnie shares his screen with Gina and plays a commercial for the “Special K pinch”, from the 1980s.
    • Only 40 years ago, being able to pinch an inch was considered “too fat.” (13:00)
    • They chat about other things that reflect a different standard than today.
    • This isn’t meant to shame—it’s merely an observation of the difference in the decades.
  • He reflects upon his recent conversation with Lori Fetrick (episode 2438) regarding “influencers” who have died. (16:00)
    • Unfortunately, sometimes the cost of five minutes of fame is detrimental.
  • Gina asks about a biotech gadget and “health-enhancing apparel” that apparently stimulates your muscles. (20:00)
    • Vinnie answers about e-stimulation for muscles and discerns the B.S. from the truth.
  • He then describes what happened on a recent international flight. (29:00)
  • Gina has a new Instagram @myextrafamily and a new website, https://myextraseries.com.
