5
00:00:25,214 --> 00:00:29,014
Speaker 2: news podcast, The Quickie. Ahead of the teens social media ban,

6
00:00:29,174 --> 00:00:33,494
Speaker 2: one question has remained. Is it actually possible to implement

7
00:00:33,534 --> 00:00:38,174
Speaker 2: age verification technology for online platforms? A new Landmark report

8
00:00:38,254 --> 00:00:41,334
Speaker 2: says technically yes, but it's risky.

9
00:00:41,734 --> 00:00:43,494
Speaker 3: Plus Where's the President?

10
00:00:44,094 --> 00:00:47,534
Speaker 2: After a day's long public absence, wild health speculation and

11
00:00:47,734 --> 00:00:51,934
Speaker 2: viral group chats, Donald Trump has finally been spotted in public,

12
00:00:52,414 --> 00:00:54,374
Speaker 2: but concerns over his health.

13
00:00:54,134 --> 00:00:55,654
Speaker 3: And succession bubble on.

14
00:00:56,254 --> 00:00:59,454
Speaker 2: We'll talk to US correspondent Amelia Lester about the where

15
00:00:59,694 --> 00:01:03,214
Speaker 2: is President Trump? Viral drama and what really happens if

16
00:01:03,214 --> 00:01:06,494
Speaker 2: a president is sidelined. Before we get there, he is

17
00:01:06,534 --> 00:01:09,134
Speaker 2: Claire Murphy with the latest from the Quickie newsroom for

18
00:01:09,254 --> 00:01:10,814
Speaker 2: two day September two.

19
00:01:11,214 --> 00:01:14,494
Speaker 1: Thanks Taylor. Police searching for alleged gunman Desi Freeman in

20
00:01:14,534 --> 00:01:17,854
Speaker 1: the Victorian High Country say they believe people know where

21
00:01:17,854 --> 00:01:20,654
Speaker 1: he is. Freeman has been on the run since last

22
00:01:20,654 --> 00:01:23,894
Speaker 1: Tuesday following deadly violence at his property in Poor Punker,

23
00:01:24,214 --> 00:01:27,574
Speaker 1: about three hundred kilometers northeast of Melbourne. The fifty six

24
00:01:27,694 --> 00:01:30,854
Speaker 1: year old accused of killing Detective Leading Senior Constable Neil

25
00:01:30,894 --> 00:01:34,014
Speaker 1: Thompson and Senior Constable Vadeim de Wart while they were

26
00:01:34,054 --> 00:01:36,134
Speaker 1: serving him with a warrant. There has not been a

27
00:01:36,174 --> 00:01:39,374
Speaker 1: confirmed sighting of him since. More than four hundred police

28
00:01:39,374 --> 00:01:43,054
Speaker 1: are scouring the dense bushland in sometimes freezing conditions searching

29
00:01:43,134 --> 00:01:46,654
Speaker 1: for him, but experts say even their tech, including drones

30
00:01:46,654 --> 00:01:49,734
Speaker 1: and an infrared camera mounted to a helicopter, won't be

31
00:01:49,854 --> 00:01:52,894
Speaker 1: useful if he's found shelter inside a cave or abandoned

32
00:01:52,894 --> 00:01:56,214
Speaker 1: mine shaft or building. Police say they're now considering placing

33
00:01:56,294 --> 00:02:00,574
Speaker 1: motion sensor trial cameras throughout the area. Victorian Police Superintendent

34
00:02:00,614 --> 00:02:03,974
Speaker 1: Bret Kahan said they believe people know the whereabouts of freemen,

35
00:02:04,374 --> 00:02:07,574
Speaker 1: saying people have chosen, for whatever reason not to come forward,

36
00:02:07,814 --> 00:02:09,934
Speaker 1: and I'm taking this time to appeal to you to

37
00:02:09,974 --> 00:02:13,414
Speaker 1: come forward in that respect. Funeral arrangements for the slain

38
00:02:13,454 --> 00:02:17,254
Speaker 1: officers have been finalized. Senior Constable Deward will be farewelled

39
00:02:17,294 --> 00:02:21,174
Speaker 1: on Friday, followed by the funeral for Detective Senior Constable Thompson.

40
00:02:21,294 --> 00:02:25,494
Speaker 1: On September eight, the GPS system of European Commission President

41
00:02:25,614 --> 00:02:29,174
Speaker 1: Ursula Vondlane's airplane was jammed while en route to Bulgaria,

42
00:02:29,214 --> 00:02:33,454
Speaker 1: with Russian interference suspected. In a statement, Bulgaria's government said

43
00:02:33,454 --> 00:02:36,734
Speaker 1: the GPS signal was lost as Vondalane's plane approached the

44
00:02:36,734 --> 00:02:40,494
Speaker 1: southern city of Plovdiv, prompting air traffic controllers to switch

45
00:02:40,534 --> 00:02:44,014
Speaker 1: to ground based navigation systems to ensure a safe landing.

46
00:02:44,254 --> 00:02:47,294
Speaker 1: The Russian government did not immediately reply to a request

47
00:02:47,334 --> 00:02:50,214
Speaker 1: for comment. The EU gave no further details, but the

48
00:02:50,214 --> 00:02:54,094
Speaker 1: spokesperson said the incident on Sunday would reinforce the block's

49
00:02:54,174 --> 00:02:57,774
Speaker 1: unshakable commitment to ramp up defense capabilities and support for

50
00:02:57,934 --> 00:03:01,054
Speaker 1: Ukraine against Russia's three and a half year old invasion.

51
00:03:01,374 --> 00:03:03,574
Speaker 1: It did not address the question of whether the EU

52
00:03:03,654 --> 00:03:08,254
Speaker 1: believed Vondlane's plane had been deliberately targeted. The women playing

53
00:03:08,254 --> 00:03:10,334
Speaker 1: in this year's Cricket World Cup will be getting four

54
00:03:10,374 --> 00:03:13,014
Speaker 1: times their last tournament fee, more than the men's pay

55
00:03:13,094 --> 00:03:15,974
Speaker 1: from two years ago. The final pot for the competition,

56
00:03:16,014 --> 00:03:18,814
Speaker 1: which is being held this year in India, has increased

57
00:03:18,814 --> 00:03:21,854
Speaker 1: to twenty one million, up from the twenty twenty two event,

58
00:03:21,894 --> 00:03:25,494
Speaker 1: which saw the play sharing five point three million. In comparison,

59
00:03:25,534 --> 00:03:27,614
Speaker 1: the men played this event in twenty twenty three and

60
00:03:27,654 --> 00:03:31,694
Speaker 1: got paid fifteen million. International Cricket Council chairman Jay Shah

61
00:03:31,774 --> 00:03:35,094
Speaker 1: said this fourfold increase in prize money is a landmark

62
00:03:35,174 --> 00:03:38,294
Speaker 1: moment for women's cricket and reflects our clear commitment to

63
00:03:38,334 --> 00:03:41,654
Speaker 1: its long term growth. The World comp starts on September thirty,

64
00:03:41,694 --> 00:03:45,454
Speaker 1: when co hosts India and Sri Lanka meeting Gwati. Olympic

65
00:03:45,534 --> 00:03:48,934
Speaker 1: champion Imani Khalif has appealed against a World Boxing decision

66
00:03:49,014 --> 00:03:53,014
Speaker 1: barring her from upcoming events unless she undergoes genetic sex testing.

67
00:03:53,414 --> 00:03:55,854
Speaker 1: The Court of Arbitration for Sports set on Monday. The

68
00:03:55,894 --> 00:03:59,734
Speaker 1: Algerian boxer filed the appeal last month. She was bidding

69
00:03:59,774 --> 00:04:02,974
Speaker 1: to compete in the World Boxing Championships, which start on Thursday,

70
00:04:03,294 --> 00:04:06,134
Speaker 1: but Cass added that on Monday dismissed a request to

71
00:04:06,134 --> 00:04:09,134
Speaker 1: suspend the World Boxing decision until the case was hurt.

72
00:04:09,854 --> 00:04:12,974
Speaker 1: Rapper Snoop Dogg has admitted he's not perfect after facing

73
00:04:13,054 --> 00:04:15,934
Speaker 1: backlash over his criticism of a same sex couple in

74
00:04:15,974 --> 00:04:19,334
Speaker 1: the animated movie light Year Snoop was slammed last week

75
00:04:19,374 --> 00:04:21,374
Speaker 1: after he claimed he was now scared to take his

76
00:04:21,454 --> 00:04:24,494
Speaker 1: grandchildren to the cinema after being caught off guard by

77
00:04:24,494 --> 00:04:27,614
Speaker 1: the fact one of the characters, astronaut Aleisha Hawthorne, who's

78
00:04:27,694 --> 00:04:30,654
Speaker 1: voiced by Uzo Aduba, had a child with her wife

79
00:04:30,654 --> 00:04:33,374
Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty two Disney Pixar film. But he's

80
00:04:33,414 --> 00:04:36,014
Speaker 1: now spoken out and insisted he's willing to learn from

81
00:04:36,054 --> 00:04:39,694
Speaker 1: his mistakes. He commented beneath a video from Hollywood Unlocked

82
00:04:39,694 --> 00:04:42,894
Speaker 1: about his remarks, saying, I was just caught off guard

83
00:04:42,934 --> 00:04:45,534
Speaker 1: and had no answer for my grandson's or my gay

84
00:04:45,574 --> 00:04:48,134
Speaker 1: friends know what's up. They've been calling me with love.

85
00:04:48,534 --> 00:04:50,774
Speaker 1: My bad for not knowing the answers for a six

86
00:04:50,854 --> 00:04:53,734
Speaker 1: year old. Teach me how to learn. I'm not perfect.

87
00:04:54,334 --> 00:04:57,334
Speaker 1: Actress Emily Blunt says she's struggling with two things while

88
00:04:57,334 --> 00:05:00,334
Speaker 1: filming the new Devil Wears Prada sequel. Blunn says she

89
00:05:00,374 --> 00:05:03,054
Speaker 1: doesn't love wearing heels, so getting back on set has

90
00:05:03,094 --> 00:05:05,454
Speaker 1: been a rude awakening for all of them. She also

91
00:05:05,494 --> 00:05:08,494
Speaker 1: says the movie has deep emotional roots for all the cast.

92
00:05:08,854 --> 00:05:11,774
Speaker 1: Her cost Stanley Tucci, would go on to marry her sister,

93
00:05:11,854 --> 00:05:14,654
Speaker 1: Felicity Blunt, saying her now brother in law is not

94
00:05:14,694 --> 00:05:17,414
Speaker 1: making it easy for her because he's cooking her pastor

95
00:05:17,454 --> 00:05:20,974
Speaker 1: and serving martinis while she has to fit into deyor cature.

96
00:05:21,334 --> 00:05:21,974
Speaker 3: Thanks Claire.

97
00:05:22,174 --> 00:05:25,734
Speaker 2: Next, the tech behind Australia's teens social media ban.

98
00:05:31,614 --> 00:05:33,294
Speaker 3: With Australia's historic.

99
00:05:33,014 --> 00:05:36,334
Speaker 2: Social media ban for under sixteens just months away, a

100
00:05:36,374 --> 00:05:40,454
Speaker 2: new government report is revealing how and if age verification

101
00:05:40,614 --> 00:05:43,694
Speaker 2: technology can keep kids off popular platforms.

102
00:05:44,294 --> 00:05:45,974
Speaker 3: It's a key part of the band plan.

103
00:05:46,174 --> 00:05:51,334
Speaker 2: Platforms must implement age assurance or verification methods. So what

104
00:05:51,374 --> 00:05:55,934
Speaker 2: does the latest study say. First, it's possible age can

105
00:05:55,974 --> 00:05:59,774
Speaker 2: now be checked with reasonable accuracy using tools like official

106
00:05:59,854 --> 00:06:04,734
Speaker 2: documents that's your passports or driver's licenses, parental approval, or

107
00:06:04,894 --> 00:06:07,374
Speaker 2: new technology that analyzes.

108
00:06:06,774 --> 00:06:09,534
Speaker 3: Facial features, gestures and online behavior.

109
00:06:10,294 --> 00:06:14,694
Speaker 2: But here's the catch. Every method has limits. Privacy is

110
00:06:14,734 --> 00:06:18,414
Speaker 2: a huge risk when sharing government documents and using facial

111
00:06:18,454 --> 00:06:24,894
Speaker 2: recognition isn't fully reliable. In fact, the report found facial recognition,

112
00:06:25,134 --> 00:06:28,534
Speaker 2: especially for girls, non white faces and those bordering the

113
00:06:28,574 --> 00:06:32,974
Speaker 2: age limit, was risky. It couldn't provide precise estimates.

114
00:06:32,494 --> 00:06:34,974
Speaker 3: With an average error of two to three years.

115
00:06:35,814 --> 00:06:39,134
Speaker 2: The report found even the best official document based systems

116
00:06:39,174 --> 00:06:42,694
Speaker 2: still make mistakes, with about three percent of kids wrongly

117
00:06:42,734 --> 00:06:46,974
Speaker 2: flagged as over or underage. The federal policy coming into

118
00:06:46,974 --> 00:06:51,854
Speaker 2: effect this December will leave platforms like metas, Facebook and Instagram, TikTok,

119
00:06:51,934 --> 00:06:54,334
Speaker 2: and Snapchat to choose and prove their.

120
00:06:54,214 --> 00:06:55,934
Speaker 3: Own verification process.

121
00:06:56,294 --> 00:07:00,454
Speaker 2: They'll have to demonstrate reasonable steps to keep under sixteens out,

122
00:07:00,654 --> 00:07:04,814
Speaker 2: but there's no single mandated approach. Experts say this could

123
00:07:04,934 --> 00:07:09,494
Speaker 2: lead to confusion and inconsistency, especially since existing tech vera

124
00:07:09,814 --> 00:07:14,054
Speaker 2: in quality between platforms. There are also worries about false

125
00:07:14,094 --> 00:07:17,574
Speaker 2: positives and negatives where teens over sixteen get locked out

126
00:07:17,734 --> 00:07:21,774
Speaker 2: or underage kids slip through, and with VPNs and clever circumvention,

127
00:07:22,014 --> 00:07:25,894
Speaker 2: the rule won't be flawless. So the new report gives

128
00:07:25,934 --> 00:07:29,334
Speaker 2: a sort of green tick to the tech. But as

129
00:07:29,374 --> 00:07:32,414
Speaker 2: we race towards December tenth, aka the day the band

130
00:07:32,454 --> 00:07:40,254
Speaker 2: comes into effect, will wait and see. Hey, quick question

131
00:07:40,334 --> 00:07:45,894
Speaker 2: for you, Where's Donald Trump? The President's absence from public

132
00:07:45,974 --> 00:07:49,774
Speaker 2: view lit up social media with concern and conspiracy theories

133
00:07:49,814 --> 00:07:52,254
Speaker 2: about his health and leadership.

134
00:07:52,614 --> 00:07:54,054
Speaker 3: His public schedule.

135
00:07:53,694 --> 00:07:57,054
Speaker 2: Went almost completely dark at the end of August prompting

136
00:07:57,134 --> 00:08:01,094
Speaker 2: intense speculation online and among pundits ahead of the Labor

137
00:08:01,174 --> 00:08:02,454
Speaker 2: Day long weekend.

138
00:08:03,414 --> 00:08:06,774
Speaker 4: As questions swirl about Donald Trump's health, It's worth pointing

139
00:08:06,774 --> 00:08:09,494
Speaker 4: out that he was not seen at all today. Also

140
00:08:09,774 --> 00:08:12,854
Speaker 4: wasn't seen at all yesterday or the day before that too.

141
00:08:13,014 --> 00:08:16,654
Speaker 4: It's also been reported that Donald Trump has no public

142
00:08:16,734 --> 00:08:20,894
Speaker 4: events scheduled all weekend. A White House pool reporter also

143
00:08:20,974 --> 00:08:23,654
Speaker 4: confirmed that they didn't see Donald Trump at all today.

144
00:08:23,694 --> 00:08:25,974
Speaker 4: They said, quote, we have a travel slash photo lid

145
00:08:26,014 --> 00:08:28,734
Speaker 4: as of five point seventeen, pool did not physically see

146
00:08:28,774 --> 00:08:31,054
Speaker 4: the president today. I believe the last time that we

147
00:08:31,174 --> 00:08:34,374
Speaker 4: the American people, actually saw Donald Trump on camera was

148
00:08:34,414 --> 00:08:36,894
Speaker 4: the twenty sixth of August. It is now the twenty ninth,

149
00:08:37,094 --> 00:08:40,974
Speaker 4: and this event was his four hour long cabinet meeting.

150
00:08:41,334 --> 00:08:45,254
Speaker 2: On Saturday, Trump did re emerge, spotted by reporters at

151
00:08:45,254 --> 00:08:49,974
Speaker 2: his Virginia golf club with his grandchildren. At seventy nine,

152
00:08:50,014 --> 00:08:53,134
Speaker 2: Trump will be the oldest president ever at the end

153
00:08:53,174 --> 00:08:57,134
Speaker 2: of his term. Official statements from the White House dis

154
00:08:57,134 --> 00:09:01,894
Speaker 2: misshealth fears, blaming minor irritations from frequent handshaking and chronic

155
00:09:01,934 --> 00:09:06,334
Speaker 2: famous insufficiency as reasons why his wrist looks so bruised

156
00:09:06,334 --> 00:09:11,494
Speaker 2: and damaged, but skeptics still aren't convey waiting in the wings.

157
00:09:11,654 --> 00:09:14,654
Speaker 2: Vice President jad E Vance publicly stated he's ready to

158
00:09:14,694 --> 00:09:17,934
Speaker 2: step in if needed. Americans are now asking, well, what

159
00:09:18,094 --> 00:09:21,774
Speaker 2: happens if the president is actually unable to serve? The

160
00:09:21,854 --> 00:09:25,214
Speaker 2: process set out in the US Constitution sees the vice

161
00:09:25,214 --> 00:09:29,934
Speaker 2: president takeover if the president is incapacitated, with historical preson

162
00:09:30,174 --> 00:09:33,574
Speaker 2: in only a handful of cases for now, though Trump

163
00:09:33,814 --> 00:09:37,054
Speaker 2: is very much alive. To find out more about the

164
00:09:37,134 --> 00:09:40,334
Speaker 2: US president and other news out of Washington were joined

165
00:09:40,374 --> 00:09:44,094
Speaker 2: by US correspondent Amelia Lester. Amelia, he loves to be

166
00:09:44,094 --> 00:09:47,054
Speaker 2: out in front of the camera. He's known for an impromptu,

167
00:09:47,174 --> 00:09:48,254
Speaker 2: long winded rally.

168
00:09:48,334 --> 00:09:49,894
Speaker 3: He loves a press conference.

169
00:09:50,254 --> 00:09:52,374
Speaker 2: Where has he been recently though, is it a matter

170
00:09:52,414 --> 00:09:55,334
Speaker 2: of He's been quietly reflecting on policy and burning the

171
00:09:55,374 --> 00:09:57,134
Speaker 2: midnight oil in the Oval office.

172
00:09:57,574 --> 00:09:57,774
Speaker 3: Yes.

173
00:09:57,814 --> 00:09:59,854
Speaker 5: So. The reason this came about is because he was

174
00:10:00,014 --> 00:10:04,254
Speaker 5: last seen before the golf siding on Tuesday night, and

175
00:10:04,294 --> 00:10:09,014
Speaker 5: it is unusual for him not to hold an impromptu pressor.

176
00:10:09,534 --> 00:10:11,534
Speaker 5: The last sign of life, as it were, was on

177
00:10:11,654 --> 00:10:16,454
Speaker 5: Friday afternoon. There was footage of journeys, don't stop believing,

178
00:10:16,814 --> 00:10:20,654
Speaker 5: playing very loudly coming out of the Oval Office, which

179
00:10:20,734 --> 00:10:23,614
Speaker 5: was the sign of life. But nonetheless, by Friday night,

180
00:10:23,934 --> 00:10:27,374
Speaker 5: because he hadn't been seen since Tuesday, rumors started circulating

181
00:10:27,454 --> 00:10:29,854
Speaker 5: on x and on Reddit that he had in fact

182
00:10:29,854 --> 00:10:31,174
Speaker 5: slipped his mortal coil.

183
00:10:31,414 --> 00:10:34,094
Speaker 2: There's been a lot of attention, especially in the last

184
00:10:34,134 --> 00:10:37,894
Speaker 2: couple of presidencies, to the president's health. I'm talking, of

185
00:10:37,934 --> 00:10:41,534
Speaker 2: course about Joe Biden, but also more recently about President Trump.

186
00:10:41,974 --> 00:10:44,974
Speaker 2: There's been a lot of attention paid specifically to Donald

187
00:10:44,974 --> 00:10:48,534
Speaker 2: Trump's wrists and ankles, signs that they were pointing to

188
00:10:48,734 --> 00:10:52,574
Speaker 2: a declining health. If he was to go Amelia, if

189
00:10:52,694 --> 00:10:56,774
Speaker 2: President Donald Trump were to die, what's the protocol involved there?

190
00:10:57,654 --> 00:10:59,414
Speaker 5: Yeah, just to step back part of the reason why

191
00:10:59,454 --> 00:11:01,534
Speaker 5: there has been so much attention, it's worth pointing out

192
00:11:01,574 --> 00:11:04,334
Speaker 5: that Joe Biden and Donald Trump are the two oldest

193
00:11:04,454 --> 00:11:07,294
Speaker 5: men ever to be president. Joe Biden is eighty two,

194
00:11:07,654 --> 00:11:11,294
Speaker 5: Donald Trump is seventy nine. Trump himself like speculating on

195
00:11:11,374 --> 00:11:13,894
Speaker 5: Joe Biden's health. Just in June, he shared a claim

196
00:11:13,934 --> 00:11:16,494
Speaker 5: on truth Social that Biden had been executed in twenty

197
00:11:16,534 --> 00:11:19,654
Speaker 5: twenty and replaced with clones or robots, so he's not

198
00:11:19,734 --> 00:11:23,814
Speaker 5: above the speculation either. In terms of the protocol, we

199
00:11:23,974 --> 00:11:26,614
Speaker 5: haven't seen this very much in modern times. The last

200
00:11:26,654 --> 00:11:30,174
Speaker 5: time a president died in office, it was, of course,

201
00:11:30,294 --> 00:11:33,454
Speaker 5: John F. Kennedy, who was assassinated in nineteen sixty three

202
00:11:33,454 --> 00:11:37,054
Speaker 5: in Dallas, Texas. The protocol is that the vice president

203
00:11:37,134 --> 00:11:39,814
Speaker 5: is sworn in as soon as possible. So what actually

204
00:11:39,854 --> 00:11:42,694
Speaker 5: happened in that situation is that his vice president was

205
00:11:42,694 --> 00:11:45,694
Speaker 5: sworn in on the plane as he was going to

206
00:11:45,774 --> 00:11:48,974
Speaker 5: Texas to collect John F. Kennedy's body. So it just

207
00:11:49,014 --> 00:11:51,694
Speaker 5: shows how quickly these things need to happen. And he

208
00:11:51,734 --> 00:11:55,054
Speaker 5: took that oath very famously, standing next to John F.

209
00:11:55,134 --> 00:11:58,934
Speaker 5: Kennedy's widow, Jackie Kennedy, who was still in a dress

210
00:11:58,974 --> 00:12:00,054
Speaker 5: with bloodstains on it.

211
00:12:00,334 --> 00:12:01,294
Speaker 3: So recently, jd.

212
00:12:01,414 --> 00:12:04,374
Speaker 2: Vance told USA Today that he's prepared to step in

213
00:12:04,414 --> 00:12:07,094
Speaker 2: as commander in chief if needed, and I quote here,

214
00:12:07,574 --> 00:12:11,174
Speaker 2: terrible tragedies happen, and if God there's a terrible tragedy,

215
00:12:11,294 --> 00:12:13,214
Speaker 2: I can't think of it better on the job training

216
00:12:13,214 --> 00:12:16,254
Speaker 2: than what I've gotten over the last two hundred days, Amelia.

217
00:12:16,454 --> 00:12:19,214
Speaker 2: If Donald Trump goes jd Vance has sworn in as

218
00:12:19,294 --> 00:12:22,534
Speaker 2: quickly as possible. There's already a lot of division in

219
00:12:22,574 --> 00:12:26,134
Speaker 2: the Republican Party about Trump. How do they feel about Vance? Yeah,

220
00:12:26,214 --> 00:12:29,174
Speaker 2: people thought that comment was a little weird. It just

221
00:12:29,294 --> 00:12:32,454
Speaker 2: sounded a bit ominous, And if I was Donald Trump,

222
00:12:32,454 --> 00:12:34,814
Speaker 2: I'd be watching my back a little bit around JD.

223
00:12:34,934 --> 00:12:35,254
Speaker 5: Vance.

224
00:12:35,614 --> 00:12:36,094
Speaker 2: Look. JD.

225
00:12:36,174 --> 00:12:38,854
Speaker 5: Vance is regarded as a true believer in the cause.

226
00:12:39,014 --> 00:12:41,734
Speaker 5: Unlike Trump, it's safe to say, is more of a pragmatist,

227
00:12:42,054 --> 00:12:44,494
Speaker 5: more driven by his own interests in power and money.

228
00:12:44,774 --> 00:12:47,374
Speaker 5: I'm sure Vance likes power, money, but he is also

229
00:12:47,694 --> 00:12:51,254
Speaker 5: someone who really purports to believe what the policies that

230
00:12:51,294 --> 00:12:53,094
Speaker 5: he'd like to put in place. He is in some

231
00:12:53,134 --> 00:12:56,534
Speaker 5: ways more extreme than Donald Trump ideologically, but I think

232
00:12:56,574 --> 00:12:58,494
Speaker 5: it's safe to say that if he were to be

233
00:12:58,574 --> 00:13:02,094
Speaker 5: sworn in, the Right would embrace him. Because currently they

234
00:13:02,134 --> 00:13:05,854
Speaker 5: have pretty much unchecked power. It seems very strange or

235
00:13:05,934 --> 00:13:08,414
Speaker 5: unusual that they would give up on that power just

236
00:13:08,454 --> 00:13:10,614
Speaker 5: because there was a different, biggerhead in office.

237
00:13:10,774 --> 00:13:13,334
Speaker 2: Amelia, while we're in DC, I want to talk about

238
00:13:13,334 --> 00:13:15,614
Speaker 2: another big story that I've been seeing all across my

239
00:13:15,734 --> 00:13:18,494
Speaker 2: news feeds, and that is, of course about the Pentagon

240
00:13:18,614 --> 00:13:21,534
Speaker 2: pizza tracker words that I didn't think that I would utter,

241
00:13:21,934 --> 00:13:24,254
Speaker 2: maybe ever in my life. But can you explain to

242
00:13:24,334 --> 00:13:25,654
Speaker 2: us what that actually means.

243
00:13:25,974 --> 00:13:28,374
Speaker 5: Yes. So part of the reason why these rumors began

244
00:13:28,454 --> 00:13:30,774
Speaker 5: when they did on Friday is because there's an ex

245
00:13:30,814 --> 00:13:33,974
Speaker 5: account called Pentagon Pizza Report, and what it does is

246
00:13:34,014 --> 00:13:37,894
Speaker 5: it tracks orders at the Arlington branch of the Domino's

247
00:13:37,934 --> 00:13:40,974
Speaker 5: pizza chain. It's very close to the Pentagon in Virginia,

248
00:13:41,054 --> 00:13:44,374
Speaker 5: just across the river from Washington, DC, and most recently

249
00:13:44,494 --> 00:13:47,294
Speaker 5: in June, it received a flurry of orders which almost

250
00:13:47,294 --> 00:13:51,774
Speaker 5: perfectly coincided with Israel's attack on Iran. That pizza tracker

251
00:13:51,854 --> 00:13:54,894
Speaker 5: idea goes back way further than elon Musk, way further

252
00:13:54,934 --> 00:13:58,174
Speaker 5: than even social media. On August the first, nineteen ninety,

253
00:13:58,214 --> 00:14:02,014
Speaker 5: for example, the CIA ordered twenty one pizzas in one night,

254
00:14:02,054 --> 00:14:05,534
Speaker 5: which was a new record just before Iraq invaded Kuwait.

255
00:14:05,694 --> 00:14:08,494
Speaker 5: So this idea of the people in the Pentagon who

256
00:14:08,494 --> 00:14:10,614
Speaker 5: are in charge of the defense and security of the

257
00:14:10,694 --> 00:14:13,014
Speaker 5: nation ordering pizzas when they have to settle down to

258
00:14:13,014 --> 00:14:15,614
Speaker 5: watch an operation goes back for many years. There was

259
00:14:15,654 --> 00:14:18,254
Speaker 5: a big spike on late Friday night, which is part

260
00:14:18,294 --> 00:14:21,534
Speaker 5: of why this speculation came about regarding Trump and his health.

261
00:14:21,934 --> 00:14:25,414
Speaker 2: Is this a way for the Pentagon for the administration

262
00:14:25,654 --> 00:14:28,774
Speaker 2: to subtly slip out that there is news coming or

263
00:14:28,814 --> 00:14:31,734
Speaker 2: about to break or is it just they're really silly

264
00:14:31,734 --> 00:14:34,134
Speaker 2: and they probably should order it to a different address

265
00:14:34,214 --> 00:14:36,894
Speaker 2: or under a different name. Do they do it intentionally, No,

266
00:14:37,014 --> 00:14:38,214
Speaker 2: they don't do it intentionally.

267
00:14:38,214 --> 00:14:40,854
Speaker 5: They don't want information like this to break because if

268
00:14:40,854 --> 00:14:43,614
Speaker 5: it's happening at the Pentagon, it's almost by definition sensitive.

269
00:14:43,654 --> 00:14:46,094
Speaker 5: Part of this is a geographic issue. The Pentagon is

270
00:14:46,134 --> 00:14:48,894
Speaker 5: kind of surrounded by a bunch of really big freeways

271
00:14:48,894 --> 00:14:52,374
Speaker 5: and highways. There's no food places around the Pentagon. If

272
00:14:52,374 --> 00:14:54,214
Speaker 5: you ordered it to a different dress, you'd have to

273
00:14:54,454 --> 00:14:56,494
Speaker 5: then go to that different address, which would take you

274
00:14:56,574 --> 00:14:58,894
Speaker 5: some time. It really is kind of marooned in the

275
00:14:58,934 --> 00:15:02,334
Speaker 5: middle of suburban nowhere. So there is, funnily another pizza

276
00:15:02,374 --> 00:15:05,334
Speaker 5: tracker for the Pentagon which tracks orders a Papa John's,

277
00:15:05,374 --> 00:15:07,894
Speaker 5: which is a rival pizza chain. But it does seem

278
00:15:07,934 --> 00:15:10,414
Speaker 5: like Domino's is kind of when the day in terms

279
00:15:10,454 --> 00:15:11,654
Speaker 5: of overall pizza orders.

280
00:15:11,814 --> 00:15:14,374
Speaker 2: Okay, so then what happens now we've seen Trump out

281
00:15:14,414 --> 00:15:17,214
Speaker 2: on the golf course. I'm sure that he will start

282
00:15:17,254 --> 00:15:20,334
Speaker 2: adding things back to his social agenda. We'll start seeing

283
00:15:20,414 --> 00:15:23,774
Speaker 2: him pop up at more cabinet meetings and maybe a

284
00:15:23,814 --> 00:15:26,894
Speaker 2: press conference or two. Do stories like this go away

285
00:15:27,014 --> 00:15:28,814
Speaker 2: or will it just be something that now plagues the

286
00:15:28,814 --> 00:15:30,974
Speaker 2: president until he eventually leaves office again.

287
00:15:31,334 --> 00:15:33,814
Speaker 5: I don't think it's going away, because he does have

288
00:15:33,854 --> 00:15:36,894
Speaker 5: some health issues which the White House hasn't fully explained.

289
00:15:37,014 --> 00:15:39,414
Speaker 5: One example is that he's been seen with bruising on

290
00:15:39,454 --> 00:15:42,774
Speaker 5: his right hand on multiple occasions recently. The White House

291
00:15:42,774 --> 00:15:45,134
Speaker 5: has said this is due to frequent handshaking and the

292
00:15:45,174 --> 00:15:47,574
Speaker 5: fact that he shakes more hands than any other president.

293
00:15:47,734 --> 00:15:50,414
Speaker 5: Doctors say that's not really a thing. Last month, the

294
00:15:50,414 --> 00:15:53,254
Speaker 5: White House was forced to respond to questions about his

295
00:15:53,494 --> 00:15:56,934
Speaker 5: very noticeably swollen ankles. They said that he'd been diagnosed

296
00:15:56,934 --> 00:16:00,254
Speaker 5: with something called chronic venus insufficiency, which is apparently a

297
00:16:00,294 --> 00:16:04,574
Speaker 5: pretty common condition in men over seventy and is easily managed.

298
00:16:05,134 --> 00:16:08,134
Speaker 5: His diet is also not the best. He's reported to

299
00:16:08,174 --> 00:16:11,174
Speaker 5: eat four McDonald's hand burgers every night, two fill it

300
00:16:11,214 --> 00:16:14,134
Speaker 5: of fishes, and two big macs. I think people are

301
00:16:14,134 --> 00:16:16,414
Speaker 5: going to keep watching because he is the second oldest

302
00:16:16,414 --> 00:16:18,654
Speaker 5: man ever to be president. He's got a lot of

303
00:16:18,734 --> 00:16:21,134
Speaker 5: challenges coming up. A court has just ruled that his

304
00:16:21,214 --> 00:16:23,774
Speaker 5: tariffs are not legal, so he's going to have to

305
00:16:23,814 --> 00:16:25,774
Speaker 5: deal with that this coming week, and we'll see how

306
00:16:25,814 --> 00:16:27,094
Speaker 5: much energy he has for it all.

307
00:16:28,774 --> 00:16:30,934
Speaker 2: Thanks for taking some time to feed your mind with

308
00:16:31,014 --> 00:16:33,614
Speaker 2: us today as part of Women's Health Week, host of

309
00:16:33,614 --> 00:16:37,454
Speaker 2: our Women's Health podcast, Claire Murphy is back with another

310
00:16:37,494 --> 00:16:38,414
Speaker 2: women's health fact.

311
00:16:39,814 --> 00:16:41,814
Speaker 1: A question we get asked from the world community quite

312
00:16:41,854 --> 00:16:43,494
Speaker 1: a lot is how do I know if my period

313
00:16:43,534 --> 00:16:46,294
Speaker 1: is normal? And what level of pain is normal? So

314
00:16:46,334 --> 00:16:48,294
Speaker 1: the good doctor Marriam told us to go to your

315
00:16:48,294 --> 00:16:52,414
Speaker 1: GP if you experience these things. For starters, if your

316
00:16:52,414 --> 00:16:55,654
Speaker 1: period pattern changes so it becomes irregular or stops altogether

317
00:16:55,694 --> 00:16:58,094
Speaker 1: for no good reasons so you're not pregnant or in menopause,

318
00:16:58,534 --> 00:17:00,574
Speaker 1: if they all of a sudden start to get really

319
00:17:00,614 --> 00:17:03,294
Speaker 1: heavy compared to what is your normal, and if they

320
00:17:03,374 --> 00:17:04,654
Speaker 1: last for longer than eight days.

321
00:17:04,654 --> 00:17:05,094
Speaker 3: So if you're.

322
00:17:05,014 --> 00:17:08,814
Speaker 1: Bleeding for two weeks, definitely go and see your doctor. Also,

323
00:17:08,894 --> 00:17:11,374
Speaker 1: if you're bleeding between your period, if you're bleeding after

324
00:17:11,414 --> 00:17:14,494
Speaker 1: sex or after menopause, really important you go see your GP.

325
00:17:15,334 --> 00:17:17,934
Speaker 1: Pain is considered normal in the first couple of days

326
00:17:17,974 --> 00:17:20,134
Speaker 1: of your period. But if it starts to impact your

327
00:17:20,214 --> 00:17:22,174
Speaker 1: daily life, if you're not going to school and you're

328
00:17:22,174 --> 00:17:24,374
Speaker 1: not going to work because of it, that is not normal.

329
00:17:24,654 --> 00:17:26,574
Speaker 1: It's also not normal if it doesn't go away or

330
00:17:26,614 --> 00:17:29,174
Speaker 1: subside when you take pain relief medications use a hot

331
00:17:29,254 --> 00:17:31,814
Speaker 1: or colpack or a tens machine. Really important to go

332
00:17:31,854 --> 00:17:34,494
Speaker 1: and see your GP if you're experiencing any of those things,

333
00:17:34,614 --> 00:17:36,494
Speaker 1: and when you go, make sure you take an example

334
00:17:36,494 --> 00:17:38,494
Speaker 1: of what is normal for you and what is not

335
00:17:38,574 --> 00:17:40,854
Speaker 1: normal for you your current experience, so they know what

336
00:17:40,974 --> 00:17:41,654
