What the hosts said

NThis is Main Character, where the internet picks its person of the day—and today it's a teenager making football history.
JWait, Lamine Yamal again? He just won the Kopa Trophy for the third year straight.
NPop Base posted it on X: Yamal's now won the under-21 award in 2024, 2025, and 2026. No one else has even won it twice.
JThat's absurd. He's still under 21? Feels like he's been world-class for half a decade.
NHe turned eighteen last summer. The kid's had more award cabinet space than most clubs.
JCareful, you're starting to sound like a Barcelona fan account.
NGuilty. But I'll allow it, the run speaks for itself.
JOkay, different kind of main character: Dexerto says GTA 6 Burger Shot cups and bags from the Miami pop-up are hitting five hundred dollars on eBay.
NFive hundred for a paper bag? The marketing's working, I'll give them that.
JIt's not confirmed independently, but if someone's paying that, they're the real main character.
NThe internet never fails to monetize a photocopied takeout bag. We'll be watching.
