Speaker 1: Give us three minutes and we'll give you everything you

Speaker 1: need to know for the day. But it's time for Nina.

Speaker 1: Is what's trending?

Speaker 2: Well, if you're somebody that flies a lot, you have

Speaker 2: now become a target.

Speaker 3: We're always talking.

Speaker 2: About who's getting hacked and who's getting scammed, and now

Speaker 2: it's all of you that are on your way to

Speaker 2: the airport right now. But i'll tell you how you

Speaker 2: can protect yourself coming up in just a second. But first,

Speaker 2: when you think of the Smithsonian, what do you imagine

Speaker 2: you to be in there?

Speaker 1: Oh?

Speaker 3: Jazz? Huh yeah, Okay, there's.

Speaker 1: Like jazz albums and things like that, and there's a

Speaker 1: big jazz collection. There's a big jazz Smithsonian exhibit of jazz.

Speaker 2: I know that. I know. It's all about history, right,

Speaker 2: it's like statue. Yeah, so I guess it's all kind. Well,

Speaker 2: it's the National Museum of American History, the Smithsonian. And

Speaker 2: you know what has just entered there is Stranger Things.

Speaker 2: The dress that Eleven wore in season one of Stranger

Speaker 2: Things has now made its way into the Smithsonian.

Speaker 1: Yeah, it's all things like that.

Speaker 2: It's actually really rough. Well it's American history. It's actually cool.

Speaker 3: I just feel super old, thinking what is that doing there?

Speaker 2: Well that was kind of my initial thought too, But

Speaker 2: then I was like, you know what, though, Stranger Things

Speaker 2: did have a very huge impact on pop culture for

Speaker 2: a long time.

Speaker 3: So what would you say? It's impact was.

Speaker 2: Keeping us entertained during the pandemic, giving us something to

Speaker 2: all connect over, you know what I mean?

Speaker 3: That was kind of a part belongs in there more

Speaker 3: than this. Probably is it?

Speaker 2: Probably it probably is, But I like that it's entertainment.

Speaker 2: Why what would you say is Victoria?

Speaker 4: Well, I don't know, Like when I think of Stranger Things,

Speaker 4: I love Stranger Things first off, but it was I

Speaker 4: don't picture it as like American history, Like I'm not

Speaker 4: going to go learn about it in the history class

Speaker 4: in ten fifteen years right.

Speaker 2: Well you might, though, because they're using Eleven's character specifically

Speaker 2: as something to kind of aspire to be, because it

Speaker 2: illustrates her journey of self discovery, empowerment, individuality and all

Speaker 2: of that stuff.

Speaker 3: So the dress, the blonde wig, you.

Speaker 1: Know, and the things on Stranger Things are about as

Speaker 1: real as history. They teach you in our old school system.

Speaker 1: That's good and put that in schools to be just fine.

Speaker 4: I was literally thinking of like how many other women

Speaker 4: in history I've also talked like you.

Speaker 3: They would just change it to the Mariana she had

Speaker 3: eleven had nothing to do with it. She was kind

Speaker 3: of there. But then America stepped in and handled it.

Speaker 3: Save the day.

Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I guess there's still a lot of questions

Speaker 2: around it. Either way, it's there and if you walk there.

Speaker 1: America just happened show them was like, wait a second,

Speaker 1: this is not right in the world, and we stop

Speaker 1: everything that's wrong all by ourselves. Then eleven was just

Speaker 1: in the background somewhere.

Speaker 2: Now take with all the credit for the Dumber Brothers

Speaker 2: and everything. Lastly, if living to you means travel, you

Speaker 2: gotta be careful, especially if you have frequent Flyer miles.

Speaker 2: You are being targeted. Hackers are now stealing all of

Speaker 2: your miles. One woman recently got ninety thousand miles stolen

Speaker 2: from her account.

Speaker 3: Wow, dude, what they can't give it back to me?

Speaker 1: No, well, Airline, of course not.

Speaker 3: I don't know if they can give it back to you.

Speaker 2: But what's happening is it's not like the hackers even

Speaker 2: using the miles to jump on a plane. They're taking

Speaker 2: the miles and cashing it in for gift cards.

Speaker 1: You could do that with your airline that or if.

Speaker 3: It's your credit cards, like maybe you came with the

Speaker 3: credit cards.

Speaker 2: That's what I thought about, but I don't know about

Speaker 2: the other way either way. So this is actually kind

Speaker 2: of laughable because when it comes to protecting yourself from them,

Speaker 2: they're like, well, just make sure that all of your

Speaker 2: passwords on all across all platforms are different. Okay, that

Speaker 2: is so hard to do one and then too, it's like,

Speaker 2: you know, the double authentication, you know, face things.

Speaker 3: That's dumb.

Speaker 4: That's your answer to me telling you all my stuff stolen?

Speaker 1: Exactly, protecting your stuff when you have stolen, dummy, Yeah

Speaker 2: Exactly, cool, Thanks for nothing, but that is what's trending.
